ENJOYED COUNTDOWN IN PREVIOUS FORMAT WHEN VIEWERS COULD TAKE PART TEASERS AND CONUNDRUMS BUT NOW , THE WORDS ARE SO OBSCURE AS TO BE MEANINGLESS AND OF LITTLE ENTERTAINMENT VALUE. THE CURRENT STAND IN FOR NICK HEWER APPEARS TO BE A LITTLE TOO CASUAL , SLOUCHING IN HIS CHAIR, SOME COMMENTS ARE NOT NEEDED AND I THINK HE IS THE ONLY PRESENTER THAT HAS NOT APPEARED IN SHIRT AND TIE WHICH GIVES THE SHOW A SOMEWHAT SLAPDASH ETHOS.
