Carol Vorderman hint leaves fans convinced she's returning to Countdown

Carol Vorderman fans are convinced she's returning to Countdown after she issued a cryptic message on social media.

The 61-year-old co-hosted the Channel 4 show for 26 years from 1982 until 2008. Viewers have called for her to return to Countdown after Anne Robinson announced she was quitting the show after just one year.

Last month, Carol took to Twitter where she admitted it would be an honour to return before she wished good luck to whoever the new host is going to be. She said: "Thank you to all of you saying such lovely things about a possibility of me returning to Countdown."

"Next week... This bird has decided to get back into work instead of hiding away for the last however many years........yup....expect trouble".
