I'm sorry for being childish, but that nearly made me wet my pants.

Please tell me it's real?

I was wondering how it could have been faked, would be tricky you'd think.

But the probability of that word coming up...of the order of 1 in 26^9!

Yeah, but Countdown's been on since the dawn of time. Must be approaching that number of episodes....

Far as I'm aware, the countdown thing is genuine for the first four letters and faked from the 'F' onwards.

Bit disappointed with the Rainbow link, I was expecting this one:

... which isn't a hoax, but was the team arsing about and never intended to be broadcast.

Given how long Countdown has been running for I'd expect such and occurrence to have happened a dozen time or more by now 🙂

Doesn't look like it, the N and the T font seems to be squished outward, too fat for the real font. Plenty of people find it amusing to make versions of it.

These are real, and funnier for it:

Amazing how often "SREKNAW" appears from the letter selection!
