Jeder gegen Jeden
Sometimes, "Fifteen to One" was not shown when Channel 4 broadcast either the Cheltenham Festival or an England Test match: that is why there were fewer episodes in some series. Repeats were sometimes shown if a Test match either stopped due to rain or finished early. However, when the 2001 Cheltenham Festival was cancelled, due to foot-and-mouth outbreak, Channel 4 did not show any "Fifteen to One" repeats. Between 1988 and 1996, "Fifteen To One" and "Countdown" alternated in the schedule with "Countdown" typically airing between January and March as well as July and September with "Fifteen To One" airing between April and June as well as October and December. The practice was dropped by series 18 when both shows ran together in the schedule until its original demise and continued again upon its revival.
