Do Tim and Simon ever go on a summer break? They seem to be on all year round but I don't watch it all the time it just seems like that lol


AFAIK they record at least one Sunday edition (to air around Christmas, possibly one for Easter too), they tend to have a few weeks off where guest chefs fill in and presenters join Tim or Simon, for example a few weeks ago Simon had the Sunday off and Tom Allen filled in on presenting duties.

Maybe I'm not so "out of touch with modern branding trends"?? Haha!! I was right!! I think it's great that the Channel 4 trailer for the cricket has the original Mambo No. 5 cricket theme music playing in the background. It is such an iconic piece. Shows Channel 4 is serious about their coverage. Whether it will be used somewhere on Sunday remains to be seen?

The Daily Express at if again with Countdown "CANCELLED" and "REPLACED" from a slot it was never going to air in this year. Do they not realise how many pensioners that headline could kill off?

Someone at the Express has a strange sense of humour, they always write an article like this when sport displaces the usual schedule.

Jesus; what a twist in one's knickers by the Express. Countdown will be back on Monday as normal. What are they worried about?

Like a lot of news websites the 'journalists' are paid by the story and the success of the story is judged by how many hits it gets.

Hence **** articles like that

The Express has hardly ever been the home of quality journalism.
