Countdown was mentioned in passing the other day as a question on the board ("What is Countdown?") into its relation to the French show.
And yes, that was Kai Laddiman who appeared on Countdown back in I think it was 2008 on the pink set. He reached the semi-final apparently and had he won would have been the youngest winner ever (younger than Conor Travers who was 14 who did win it), a feat which cannot be repeated now as they changed the rules a few series later so you have to be 16 or over to take part in Countdown...
