Anne Robinson quits Countdown
On Monday night, Anne, 77, announced that she was going to be leaving her role hosting Countdown.
The veteran TV star took over hosting duties in June 2021 following Nick Hewer’s exit. Nick hosted the show for nine years.
Anne became the first woman to host the show in its 39-year history. She is also set to become one, if not the shortest-serving host of the show since it began in 1982.
