Love the ending cerdits theme

I Love Countdown

I remember this logo of a former British film distributor and home video company. It was best known for distributing a wide selection of genres, but they mainly served as a distributor for New Line Cinema, Turner Pictures Worldwide Distribution and Hanna-Barbera until they were sold to Warner Bros. in 1996. They also disturbed independent films. The company was sold to Columbia TriStar Home Video (now Sony Pictures Home Entertainment) and the label was folded into Columbia TriStar in 1999. However, Columbia TriStar continued to use the First Independent Films label for some years afterwards.

Radio 5 live Colin is the new host of Countdown

This was taken from Budgie the Little Helicopter

Like London Burning!

I remember when Series Producer Damien Eadie won Countdown back in 1995

Time for a change after the death of composer Alan Hawkshaw who wrote the tune.

London's Burning does remind me of a human version of Fireman Sam

They called it the Cow globe. Which is pretty amusing considering that it doesn't look like a cow..

If its not broke don't fix it imo

This is a little longer than it used to be, I think it's been like this since 2017, because there's a message about how you can contact the programme.

I have never heard this version of the song before! did this come from the soundtrack CD?

This used to scare me as a young child. I don't know why.

I remember seeing this on stop it and tidy up

I see with this version of the credits is similar to the original

Is there a longer version of this

Love the ending cerdits theme :D

Breaking news Anne Robinson is taking over nick hewers place as the First Lady presenter on channel 4

For this years ending theme on countdown you will normally hear the announcers talking about contacting the programme before the ending theme comes on
