Amy Winehouse 'Wants Carol Vorderman's Old Countdown Job'

March 11, 2009
Amy Winehouse 'Wants Carol Vorderman's Old Countdown Job'Amy Winehouse wants to take over the position as co-host on the popular quiz show Countdown, it's been reported.

The singer, who recently returned from her Caribbean holiday, is said to be keen to replace the current mathematician Rachel Riley, who took over from Carol Vorderman earlier this year.

"She has always loved the show but since she’s come back she’s had to get used to it without Carol,” a source told The Sun newspaper.

"She thinks new girl Rachel Riley is all right but reckons she could do a much better job herself."

Vorderman left Countdown at the end of 2008 after she was reportedly asked to take a large pay cut by producers.

She had appeared on the programme for 26 unbroken years.
