00:30Hello, everybody. Welcome to Countdown this Thursday afternoon.
00:34We've got a very special show for you today.
00:37But first, the formalities.
00:39And what a surprise. That's Rachel Riley. Hi, Rach.
00:41Hello.
00:42Huge day for TV.
00:43You mentioned your favourite TV show,
00:45the one you've watched the most is Friends.
00:47That was launched today.
00:50Baywatch as well was launched today.
00:52And you look at us two, it's just Pamela Anderson, David Hasselhoff.
00:54My only reference to Baywatch is through the medium of Friends.
00:57Wow, true. That's the generation gap.
01:00Yeah. Oh, I remember when Baywatch was first on ITV.
01:03And it's actually that which I think is the biggest thing
01:05because it was launched today.
01:07And it was the first adverts that ever appeared on television.
01:11Wow.
01:11Anyway, we'll cross over to Dictionary Corner.
01:14As advertised, it is, of course, the one and only Susie Dent.
01:18And alongside Susie, giving to the big in for a fourth day in a row.
01:26Presenter, comedian, great advertisement for yoga,
01:29which we'll get on to later.
01:30Noreen Cairns back.
01:31And hoping to deliver the goods again is our champion Alan Young
01:38from Paisley in Scotland.
01:41Six wins, just two away from becoming an octo-champ.
01:46And what a challenge you have today.
01:48Another Scottish representative.
01:50So we're on a real roll here.
01:52From Glasgow, it's Natalie Curran.
01:56So Natalie, I think this is the third time, to the best of our memory,
02:00we've had a countdown contestant who's registered blind.
02:03And I am going to ask all the questions to get all the answers.
02:07So how do you do the normal rounds?
02:10I just do it on my head.
02:12So you have to remember the nine letters,
02:14and then in your head, with that mental picture,
02:18arrange them, remember how many letters they have,
02:22work out which one is the longest,
02:24and then remember it until I ask you what it is.
02:27Yeah.
02:27Right.
02:28I would score zero.
02:30It is as simple as that.
02:31And same with numbers?
02:32Yeah.
02:33What do you find more difficult to do that way?
02:35I'm guessing the numbers.
02:37I don't want to say anything in case I give Alan any clues.
02:39Ah, yes!
02:41Yes!
02:42We're going to have a lot of fun.
02:43It's great to have you both here.
02:44Alan going for a seventh win.
02:46Natalie giving nothing away at all, going for a first.
02:49Good luck both of you.
02:52And we'll get straight down to it now.
02:54Alan, it's your letters.
02:56Hi, Rachel.

12:53Grasped.
12:54And the eight.
12:55Sugared.
12:57Sugared.
12:58Let's go to Dixon-Wray Corner for sugared, a risky eight.
13:01Sugared is great.
13:03It's a seven, though, Natalie.
13:04Oh.
13:06It's a brilliant word, I have to say.
13:08But, yeah, just seven letters.
13:11Sorry.
13:12So, anything better than the sevens?
13:14I don't think there's anything better than sugared with one R, no.
13:17So, we move on to numbers, and it's your choice, Natalie.
13:20What way are you going to go?
13:21Try three of each.
13:22Why not?
13:23Three large, three little.

15:22over in the west people see yoga as just being like the physical poses or asanas as they're called
15:27but there's actually eight limbs of yoga so the physical postures are one limb physical so the
15:32first one is like yama so that's your relationship with others then there's niyama which is your
15:37relationship with yourself that includes self-discipline uh you know tidiness eating well
15:43then you also have um pranayama which is the very important one which is breathing
15:48so i think you know you learn that in yoga to breathe correctly you also have pratihara which is
15:54your withdrawal from the senses then there's another limb called dharana which is concentration
16:00yeah then you have dhyana which is meditation and the final one is samadhi which is like
16:06the ultimate one oneness so physical health mental health and your relationship with yourself with
16:12others so non-violence you know eating well taking care of others respecting others

19:28Over digs.
19:29Over digs. Question marks on both of them.
19:33So, Susie, it's over to you.
19:36OK, there is no voider.
19:38I'm afraid there is an avoider, but no voider.
19:40And I'm afraid you can be an overdog, but you can't over dig.
19:44So, I have to disallow both, I'm afraid.
19:46Anything else in Dictionary Corner?
19:48A couple of sevens. A misdoer. A wrongdoer is a misdoer.
19:51And Verismo from the Italian for realism.
19:55So, it's realism in the art, an opera, for example.

21:56Yes, Galliard.
21:57From the mid-16th century, it's a lively, complicated dance in triple time for two people.

24:49Alan six and Natalie five the five is cones cones well that was easy to
24:58remember came out straight away if only cone socks existed
25:02that would be great Alan what's yours sonnet sonnet and actually I'm going to
25:06dictionary corner thinking cone socks could be a thing from like the 1980s
25:10fashion what have you got no rain or six tons tons and tons and tons of six right
25:17well that puts it back to 15 points so can't wait for the last four rounds but
25:21let's take a little break and head over for more origins of words from Susie
25:25Dan what are you taking us say soos well as you know comment I'm trying to link
25:29into the tops of the programs which is unbelievable interest well I'm not sure
25:33I've succeeded this time because I've gone off a bit of a tangent because you
25:37mentioned Baywatch yeah at the beginning so I'm going to do some surfing speak
25:40that'll do that's all right yeah with you that's rad it's rad dude and so when it
25:45comes to surfers we do tend to take stereotyping to a whole new level don't
25:50we like cowabunga and totally radical most triumphant of Bill and Ted and
25:54things but it's the surfer types that really made me laugh when I was looking
25:58at the vocabulary of surfers so they've just got some quite sort of mean but
26:02funny ones so a Barney is a complete beginner also known as a cook or a grommet
26:07whereas a fellow surfer someone you would see considered to be a peer is a dude of
26:12course or a bra and then you've got a froob which I would be and a froob is
26:17someone who doesn't catch a wave for the entire time that they're in there's a
26:22paddle puss someone who stays in the whitewater close to the beach also me
26:26and now extreme surfer of the big waves is a hell man beach leech is the surfer
26:32who always turns up without a board and borrow someone else's and finally this
26:36one really made me laugh a Melvin no one quite knows where the inspiration for this
26:40came from a Mervin is a surfer whose shorts have ridden up the bottom quite
26:45naturally a Melvin a Melvin a Melvin fantastic
26:50well open the right away of this seventh win just one away from octo champ is Alan he's

30:04Four large, two little. We do not want an easy one. We want a challenge.
30:08Final numbers today. Three and one. And as we know, the four large.
30:1325, 50, 75 and 100.
30:17And the target to reach, 741.

30:4614,000.
30:51Natalie.
30:56No worries. Alan.
30:58738.
30:59Which is three away, which would be seven points.
31:02Go ahead, Alan.
31:03100 over 25 is four.
31:06100 over 25, four.
31:09Then 75 minus one is 74.
31:12Yep.
31:13Times 74 by four.
31:15296.
31:17Take away 50.
31:18Take away 50.
31:21246.
31:22And then times that by three.
31:23And times that by three for 738.
31:27Seven points.
31:29Rachel, for the ten, is it possible?
31:33Let me try something.
31:34If you say 75 over 25 is three,
31:39100 minus one is 99.
31:44Times that by three for 297.
31:48Take away the 50 here for 247.
31:53And then times that by three.
31:56And you should get a simple one.
31:58Yeah.
32:01Well, in the end, it came down to a couple of numbers rounds.
32:04Natalie, you'll never want to hear the word sugared again in the rest of your life.
32:08It's 84 plus 62.
32:12Here's how we're going to do the conundrum.
32:14I'm going to say it.
32:15Then I'm going to reveal it.
32:17And as I reveal it, Natalie has the braille on your right finger as it stands at the moment.
32:23So as soon as you hit the clock, Natalie, off you go.
32:25You too, Alan.
32:27So I'll say it.
32:28Then I reveal today's countdown conundrum.
32:31A giant cut.
32:32Let's reveal it.
32:33Natalie.
32:43I'm actuating.
32:45Actuating.
32:46Let's have a look.
32:48Yes!
32:50APPLAUSE
32:51What a game.
32:5684 plays 72.
32:59For the champion, one game away from becoming an octo-champ.
33:04You're a countdown mega fan.
33:07So no sleep for you tonight.
33:09No.
33:10No.
33:10And I could do with it.
33:13Listen, Natalie, I'm lost in admiration for that performance.
33:16I think I speak for everybody here.
33:17You know, for us mere mortals, it was mind-blowing.
33:21So thank you so much for being here.
33:22Have you enjoyed the experience?

33:48Yeah, this is Alan's second run in it, isn't it?
33:50So I want Natalie to promise that she's going to come back in a couple of years
33:53and have another go once Alan's out of the way.
33:55Yeah, exactly.
33:56You'll do that, Natalie, yes?
33:57You'll have another go one day?
