Concept
Contestants were given two phrases, and must state the single word that links the phrases together. For example, the two phrases could be "Wikipedia" and "The United Kingdom", with the link in this case being "Wales"; Jimbo Wales founded Wikipedia, and Wales is a country in the United Kingdom.
Transmissions
The show went out in the early afternoon at 3:10pm, resulting in Countdown being shunted back half an hour. Horse racing and other sport left episode 40 unaired; this would be aired at 5:20am in June 2015.[2]

gollark: Firstly, you can just pick up drones with screnches. Secondly, they can't actually fire weapons or anything as far as I know (maybe they could drop radioactive material, that would be !!FUN!!). Thirdly, I doubt the drones are very secure.
gollark: Anyway, don't worry much about killer drones, they make poor weapons.
gollark: I wonder if you could automatically try and trilaterate/triangulate radiation sources using a network of Geiger counters.
gollark: If you put your reactors in a box with closed doors, drones are physically incapable of entering.
