Okay, so this Saturday night on Saturday 5th February, 2022 at 11:50 am, see's 'rage goes retro' 1. I only have information on one Countdown episode so far, which will be the first Countdown unrepeated episode of the year. Highlights for me is the interview Molly did with The Style Council, Pookah Makes Three in Chartbusters, the interview with Eurythmics and Dead or Alive. This episode is a tribute to Meat Loaf who hosts with Molly, from the 26th May, 1985. Overall, not a dazzling episode by any means but an extra 1985 episode I can add to my Countdown collection is ALWAYS a treat!

I doesn't look like rage are hinting on the other Countdown episodes they will be playing this Saturday night as yet. So I guess we will have to wait till Friday and then I can post full information on each episode then.
