I must admit that I never thought I'd ever get to see both Heidi Fleiss and Vinnie Jones on Countdown – that was until today!

In wonderful bit of cross promotion for Channel 4, Celebrity Big Brother housemates Stephen Baldwin, Dane Bowers, Heidi Fleiss, Vinnie Jones and Alex Reid got to play the hugely-popular words and numbers game this lunchtime. And by strange coincidence on the same day that that the long-running quiz returned to Channel 4!

Regular Countdown hosts Jeff Stelling and Rachel Riley hosted the special live version of Countdown in a link-up from their Manchester-based studio, while the selected housemate contestants played from the living room of the Elstree Studios-based compound.

The footage I have seen of the quiz so far looks great fun and I look forward to seeing more of this task during CBB's highlights show on Tuesday night.

Please click onto the link above right to see Emma Willis host show an edition of CBBBi show which features a clip from the special CBB version of Countdown.

I really enjoy Emma's little CBB videos and still feel that she should have been given the post of presenting BBLB after Dermot O'Leary left.
