Nick Hewer and the incomparable Rachel Riley host as James Slater looks to make it six wins on the bounce. Standing in his way is Ben Elliott, a stunningly handsome writer from Newcastle.
Will the defending champion continue his march towards being an Octochamp? Or will the challenger with the hilarious goatee fulfil his dream of taking home a legendary Countdown teapot?
Susie Dent and June Sarpong do the honours in Dictionary Corner.
Keep watching until the credits... is that the world's first dab on Countdown?
