Countdown - Not On C4 Today ...

[sunny-dave]

The India - England test match is on C4 all day for the next five days - and has displaced the sainted Countdown. This is likely to happen in the ODIs too.

Don't Panic though - Countdown is on More 4 at 14:25 instead

[ NB my series record function on Sky Q didn't spot the channel change - check that yours has if you routinely record Countdown ]

thanks for the heads-up dave, i've advised my elderly mother before she has a meltdown . . .

[sunny-dave]

What two words can you make from

ECNOGLLLAANPDSE ?

[Zacs-Master]

collages planned?

[BAKERS DOZEN]

Ha Ha. 112 all out. Oh dear.

[choux]

That is hardly fair, dave, for India is well known for their
ANNAPHACATI . Sort of flattens out your point ;)

[sunny-dave]

England definitely making a balti of it, so far ...

[janzman]

I think you'll find the ODIs and T20s will be on Sky sport cricket, not Channel 4

[cashier]

Thanks for the heads up, much appreciated.

[sunny-dave]

Ah - thanks Janzman - hadn't spotted that - as I can't record C4 in HD on Sky Q in Ireland, that's actually a plus for me

Disappointed in channel 4, we shouldn't be allowed to watch horror shows before the watershed.

[drmorgans]

Horror? Comedy!

[Spicerack]

My Naan will be tikkaed off about this.

[sunny-dave]

At this rate Countdown actually could be on C4 today ...

Preceded by a short film :-)

[ichkeria]

Or possibly a long one ...

At the England Post-Mortem :

"The decision to play three seamers on a raging bunsen may not have been our best option ..."

[drmorgans]

A turner? It must be a minefield if a part-time spinner can get 5-for.

[sunny-dave]

Jeez - bad enough playing the Indian spinners on a broken pitch - but we seem to have a bent Indian third-umpire as well.

This is like the bad old days in Pakistan before neutral umpires were enforced.
