I don't think Carol would go for the idea of another woman on Countdown. I like the Tom O'Connor suggestion though.

NO

how about a woman?


at risk of being beaten to death with a barrage of handbags, hosting countdown is not a womans place. it needs to be a greying middle-aged man.

I think 623 would be good on countdown.

Rick Wakeman is good in dictionary corner, I wonder if he would be good as the host?


Maybe Countdown should have guest hosts, so they change each week?

I didn't mean permanently, I meant testing different people out. Then the presenters can see what it's like and the viewers get to see different people. They could then make the viewers vote for their favourite presenter

Gyles Brandreth, Alan Titchmarsh, Michael Aspel and Eamomn Holmes are all currently in the frame. Of those I think Aspel is probably the best choice, but for me Tom O'Connor is still the best option. He's always good on Dictionary Corner, plus he used to do Crosswits so he understands the workload of a daily quiz show - I don't think Des Lynam did.
