[QUOTE="cobbles, post: 247364, member: 5138"] I mean, I don't think the kids that rushed home to watch Countdown (the sad ones like me) were the same kids that watched Golden Balls (the closest thing to Tipping Point in those days) to be frank, so entirely different markets. 3.30pm would seem far better than 2.10pm and it's not that late, It's main audience being university students, old people and housewives is kind of feature of it's slot. It'd be interesting to see how would do before Hollyoaks or something. (Although it'd obviously never be on that late :p) Can you really argue either of those shows do better service than Countdown? No ones suggesting it putting it up against Coronation Street / EastEnders here (although I reckon it wouldn't do as bad as some of the other stuff in those slots.)
