You two are adorable and competitive, and i know you recorded this before my comment in part 1, but I'll say again, it's for fun, so play the game, chill out a bit, then rewind 30 second and watch the antics too. Jodie, no matter how bad you think you did in that maths round for 113, you will never do as bad as Catherine Tate, i forget the number but it was like 101 and she didn't get it.
Its the pressure of having to do it in 30 seconds, people get fixated on one thing then panic and you're not that bad wait until Roisin Conaty and Rob Beckett goes on it you feel like a genius compared to them.
Lol Jodi looks so defeated. Keep plowing on! My girlfriend just enjoys the show but I play along and have scrunched up many bits of paper and thrown them in frustration. I just get the standard "you know you're picking that up right?".
7:30am in the UK and I’m watching this. I do so enjoy your reactions etc. I think you should do a 🥕 in the box with your Metallica friend. Would be fun to watch.
The thing is, you'll get better at the games as you go on. I tend to scan for common suffixes first and that can help. Look for "ing, er(s), ion, less, ive, ure, etc..." If you find any of those, you can quickly tick those letters off and make a smaller base word with your remaining letters and get a lot of 7s and 8s. With the numbers games, you'll often find that it can be done in two stages. Stage 1 is just bulking up the number to a few numbers off the target, then a fine tune. When you get fast at dividing you can often just break down the problem by "correcting" the target by one of the small numbers so that it's divisible by more numbers. This just takes a bit of practice. The conundrums seems to be a gift you're born with. On the real countdown you get some amazing people come on (not comedians!). Some of them seem to always see the answer instantly and buzz within the first second.
Definitely a good approach to do the longer shows, and the actual timed events. It is entertaining, and everybody at home takes a bit longer as it's annoying when you are so close to stop.
Meanwhile a bunch of dolphins are laughing their asses off. I have to give credit to you guys. To show the TH-cam world your ineptitude is pretty brave. I couldn't do it. Kudos.
Hiya. You should check out the original series of 8 out of 10 Cats. Your watching the spinoff, which is a combination of two shows. 8 out of 10 Cats and Countdown. All the best. UK 11/3/2024
Dear Nick and Jiodie. I think you have the format the wrong wat round on this show and taskmaster. Given this is a new competiton each episode, it can be done in snippets, episode 1 has no relation to episode 2 and you can watch episodes aat random with no loss. Taskmaster is a competiton across the Series. Episode 1 effects episode 2 and so on till the end of the series and the prize award. You will never really understand the show if you keep on just doing random mixed tasks in unordered and disconnected manner. The show losses most of it's appeal when you break the competiton format. Check out TH-camrs - Neil Talks, FWCI etc and also newley started David versues Film, all of whom are reactors who have done it by episode from season 1 onward with much success.
Love you guys... its never embarrassing... its just pure fun........ I never get any of them right and I am NOT telling you what I did for a living ... cough cough and a longer cough ha ha
I had janitor for the letters and we won't talk about the maths. Only got six on the first letters, so I'm feeling mega. And then I type this before the next maths starts. I think I got 113 before the countdown timer even started.
A lot of fun , and you really look hooked ,if you just want to play the afternoon version is best . The comedy and the game makes a great combination for later evening viewers .
When you're doing the games, at the end of the clock, maybe go back and watch what happens during that time, so you dont miss out on the weirdness occuring in the background?
I didn't get any points from the first letters round (Last section) for a number of 5s In the first numbers round, the closest I got in the 30s was 740=(25x7+10)x4, but if we're counting the added time at the end I got it with 739=(8x10+25)x7+4, so that puts me on either 7 or 10 points depending on if we're allowed the extra time too The second letters game I got stuck on trying to make emotion or Martian work, but both repeated vowels. So only another 5 for me for no points Second numbers round I got within time 113=100+1+5+6+10/10 Note, Jodi still could have got it from where she stopped at 116. 100+10+6=116. 10/5+1=3. 116-3=113 Fracked for the third letters game. I know Fracking is a thing, so I assume a place can be Fracked, but I may be wrong So I would be at 24 from the 2 numbers rounds and the final letters round (Assuming a place can indeed be fracked)
@js0988 Maybe I'm just too pished having been drinking for 24 hours watching the boxing to comprehend that but my reply was to correct your punctuation, your should have been you're. As to the trombone from your gaffer, that's your caper squire.
It's Saturday morning 7:22 am here. Guys the point of 8 out 10 cats dose is to have fun to do it seriously have at a proper episode of countdown this is more or about Jimmy Carr being a clown.
As Nick is saying he can't find a 3, i'm thinking that i managed to get a 3 ok lol to be 1 away. I did 7 - 4 = 3, 3×25×10=750, take away the 2 and 8. I'll settle for 7 points 2 rounds in a row lol (i got 'lounges' in part 1).
If it weren't for the swearing this would be an excellent show to show kids in an English/Maths class, they'd be really engaged with their lesson. Great reaction guys. 👏🏻
The actual show Countdown has been on daytime TV for decades Monday to Friday which is what you're after. Go take a squint if this isn't your fancy. Edit - sorry, it's more apt for the kids, you didn't say it wasn't for you, my apologies.
I did 10/5=2+1=3+10=13+100=113, but I still lost because it took about 46 seconds for me, but also I been watching cats does countdown since the beginning so I have practice. 19:05 right screen, the real star of Cats down, Fabio!

I would click the notification bell, but teachers always told us the bell was for them, not us.
I did the numbers a different way.
8 x 10 = 80
80 + 25 = 105
105 x 7 = 735
735 + 4 = 739
Definitely a good approach to do the longer shows, and the actual timed events. It is entertaining, and everybody at home takes a bit longer as it's annoying when you are so close to stop.
They are all brilliant
Suzie deserves her honour, nobody will deny

A joy to watch you guys!
You are getting closer to to Sean Lock's best bits or Joe Wilkinson's poem. Very funny
The 113 one can also be done 10x10=100, 100/5=20, 100+20=120, 6+1=7, 120-7=113. That way you use all of the numbers.
Hiya.

You played a Good Game and it was very Entertaining.
You guys crack me up lol. Thank you.
Once it was out, all I could see was forks 😂
Bob Mortimer Absurd answers 8 out of 10 cats does countdown
You'll 100% love it
The whole idea is to do it within the 30 seconds not a minute or two! It’s called countdown for a reason.
10 divided by 10, then add all the rest.
Maths is pretty hot when Rachel does it 😅

I hope NeilTalks is okay. It's been several months.
@@KaiOpakaagreed, I miss Neil, such a great fella.
That Scrabble game she allegedly invented is Cheats' Scrabble, which my siblings and I have been playing for at least 30 years.
Joes chair is one of the thrones from Task Master
I thought it looked familiar.
This is so much fun watching these two compete whilst also watching comedy gold.
Love you guys... its never embarrassing... its just pure fun........ I never get any of them right and I am NOT telling you what I did for a living ... cough cough and a longer cough ha ha

A lot of fun , and you really look hooked ,if you just want to play the afternoon version is best . The comedy and the game makes a great combination for later evening viewers .
You are cheating guy's. You have to do it while the clock is ticking Ha Ha
You're a really cute couple, even though you're crap at Maths 😊
You missed Jimmy in his underpants because you were still not watching the funny bits
You should pause the Countdown clock and work it out off camera. As soon as you have solved it then restart the clock and carry on recording again!
When you're doing the games, at the end of the clock, maybe go back and watch what happens during that time, so you dont miss out on the weirdness occuring in the background?
I got janitor.
Keeping him for good or letting him go back to work after the weekend?
Me too. Congrats!
I used 10 divided by 10 to equal 1 then added everything together.
Don't take it too hard. You'll be alright. Some nights I'm all over it, other times, Blah
If you really want to feel inadequate, try playing along with the regular Countdown with egg-heads from the public.
I enjoy your choices and enjoy you 2 very much ❤
Judging by your performances today, are we to assume you teach athletics?
;-)
100 + 10 + 10 - 6 - 1 = 113. So yes it was as easy as it looked. :D
They only get 30seconds guys!
i got forsake! and the 113. yay for me
The last one I had Cracked .
I didn't get any points from the first letters round (Last section) for a number of 5s

The second letters game I got stuck on trying to make emotion or Martian work, but both repeated vowels. So only another 5 for me for no points
Second numbers round I got within time 113=100+1+5+6+10/10
Note, Jodi still could have got it from where she stopped at 116. 100+10+6=116. 10/5+1=3. 116-3=113
Fracked for the third letters game. I know Fracking is a thing, so I assume a place can be Fracked, but I may be wrong
So I would be at 24 from the 2 numbers rounds and the final letters round (Assuming a place can indeed be fracked)
100+10+10-6-1....Guys...simple maths
I was sure they were kidding.
Even worse for Jodie lol she could still have done it from 116, if she did 10 over 5 for 2, then with the 1 took them away for 113.
Milking the sushi joke Jon
Please tell me your just acting. You seriously can not get 113 in 30 seconds. 🤣
113 in 30 is a must indeed but it should be you're since you're having a go.

@@pauldryburgh6346I believe you. 🤣
Next round i got janitor.I do better at this when i'm drunk lol.
And yes i did type the above comment before Rhod said it.
Still missing the funny bits during the 30 second segments. Such a pity.
Stopping the clock is cheating .
It’s just a bit of fun😂
The numbers you have 1 to 10 doubled and 25, 50, 75 and 100

It helps if you know the 17 times table and the 19 times table
So know every times table
It's Saturday morning 7:22 am here. Guys the point of 8 out 10 cats dose is to have fun to do it seriously have at a proper episode of countdown this is more or about Jimmy Carr being a clown.
It's exactly the same game. The 'point' is for people to do what the F they want.
Not necessarily i love this show, for the comedy, but still always play along. The regular show is just tedious.
And you're teaching the youth of America‽ that tracks...
As Nick is saying he can't find a 3, i'm thinking that i managed to get a 3 ok lol to be 1 away. I did 7 - 4 = 3, 3×25×10=750, take away the 2 and 8. I'll settle for 7 points 2 rounds in a row lol (i got 'lounges' in part 1).
Jodi! Nick did help you out! i will give him that! brilliant!
"Excelllenttttttttt!" Cheers Bill & Ted!
(but I've no idea who would be whom lol)
If it weren't for the swearing this would be an excellent show to show kids in an English/Maths class, they'd be really engaged with their lesson.
Great reaction guys. 👏🏻

113 😂😂😂😂😂
Who from the show would you dress like for fancy dress
100 + 10 =110 10-6 = 4 -1 = 113
5+6=11+1=12+(10÷10)+100=113
I did 10/5=2+1=3+10=13+100=113, but I still lost because it took about 46 seconds for me, but also I been watching cats does countdown since the beginning so I have practice. 19:05 right screen, the real star of Cats down, Fabio!
I want to hear what your pupils say to you on Monday.
You don’t have to use all the numbers
Be kind to yourself, you're not the biggest idiot, just a normal sized one :) Cheers to both of you!
Awww you two are lovely! ❤
Teachers? More like cheaters... smh
or she could have said i'm just not telling you
30secs stop cheating
Suggest you find the proper game and play that of air , this is about the comedy nit watching you two agonise over this .
Are this pair the most beautiful people on the tube of the you ?..i think so..🥰
Dictionary corner usually has better guests than Josie. I'm not sure about anyone else but her giggly cockiness really wound me up in this episode.
I think she’s great! You need to lighten up.
@rikmoran3963 Well thanks for your opinion. Luckily I don't give a flying toss.
Jon isn’t funny
