Countdown in Lincoln 2005
Saturday, 29th January 2005, at Bishop Grosseteste College in Lincoln
This is the site for the first-ever Lincoln Countdown Tournament, a.k.a. COLIN for short, which was won by Series 47 champion Chris Wills, and was the first of its kind to be held on such a national scale, with participants making the journey from as far away as Edinburgh to the north and Hove to the south, for the chance to meet fellow Countdown enthusiasts- and take them on at their own game!

Many thanks to...
Many thanks go to Chris Wills and Mike Brown- both of whom were in attendance on the 29th- for plugging COLIN heavily in the run-up to the tournament. Both of them run brilliant sites, so why not give them a click or two?
Thanks also go to Jill Wilson and Sue for helping out on the day- COLIN wouldn't have gone even a tenth as smooth as it had done if it weren't for these two magnificent ladies.
And of course, many thanks go to the 23 people who gave up their Saturday afternoons to play a marathon session of Countdown against each other- in a very literal sense, it wouldn't have been the same without them!
