00:30Good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown Studio.
00:33On the day, 100 years ago, that JFK, Jack Kennedy, was born in Boston,
00:41went on, of course, to become the 35th President of the United States,
00:45all came to a very sad end in Dallas back in 1963.
00:50And, of course, it spawned a number of books and films.
00:53This was the wonderful film starring Kevin Costner
00:57as the District Attorney called JFK.
01:01Great movie.
01:02What about you?
01:03What film would you like to see made?
01:06I saw a play of Oppenheimer, Oppenheimer's Life and the Manhattan Project.
01:10I think that would make a brilliant film.
01:12He was communist in the 30s, had those ideas like most people did,
01:15or a lot of intellectuals did then.
01:17And then, obviously, the Manhattan Project made the nuclear weapons
01:20and then spent the rest of his life tormented as to whether they should have.
01:23A very fascinating story.
01:25All right.
01:26Who have we got?
01:26We've got the moose back, Rachel.
01:28Look at this chap.
01:29Five great wins.
01:31The last two or three, even, at over 100 points.
01:34Head of Risk Management from Halstead in Essex.
01:37And good player.
01:39Good player.
01:39Now you've got to overcome Sam Green.
01:42HGV, a driver from Chelmsford,
01:45who told me that once upon a time he tied himself upside down from a tree.
01:50Yeah.
01:50Just on the odd chance that you might discover how to set yourself free.
01:54How did it all work out?
01:56Not too good.
01:57I was there for two hours before Mum came home from work.
02:00Oh, I see.
02:01It wasn't reasonably.
02:02No, no.
02:03I was about nine at the time.
02:04Oh, all right.
02:05Well, I can understand that.
02:06That would be fun.
02:07Good fun, yeah.
02:08Yeah.
02:09Let's have a big round of applause for Moose and Sam.
02:12And over in the corner, Susie, of course.
02:18He's always smiling, even after all those early mornings getting up to present the news.
02:23It's Dan Walker.
02:24How are you, Dan?
02:25Very good, thank you.
02:26Thank you very much.
02:29What time do you get into the studio these days?
02:32The alarm goes off at quarter past three in the morning.
02:36Yeah, so I get about a four-hour's kip,
02:37and then I get into the studio about a quarter to six,
02:40and then the cameras start rolling at six,
02:41and then I'm off for three and a quarter hours.
02:44Why do you only have a few hours sleep?
02:46I've got a nine-year-old daughter,
02:47and fundamentally I cannot go to bed before my nine-year-old daughter.
02:52So that's the battle I have most nights.
02:54All right, let's get down to business here.
02:56Moose, let's have a letters game.
02:59Hi, Rachel.
02:59Hi, Moose.
03:00Have a consonant, please.

03:26Consonant.
03:28P.
03:31And a consonant, please.
03:33And the last one, T.
03:35And here's the countdown clock.

03:40S.
03:40S.
03:41S.
03:44S.
03:55S.
03:57Well, Moose, dodgy eight.
04:11How about Sam?
04:12Safe six.
04:13And your six?
04:15Fruits.
04:16Now then, Moose, stipular.
04:20Absolutely brilliant, yes.
04:21Botanical term, stipular, the adjective relating to the small leaf-like appendage
04:26to a leaf stalk.
04:28Very, very good.
04:28Wow.
04:33All right.
04:34Now then, Sam, your first letter.
04:36I'll start with a consonant, please.
04:37Thank you, Sam.
04:38Start with N.
04:41And vowel?
04:43E.
04:44Consonant?
04:46J.
04:47Vowel?
04:49O.
04:51Consonant?
04:52S.
04:54Vowel?

04:57Vowel?
04:59E.
05:01Consonant?

05:36Sam.
05:40Six.
05:42Moose.
05:43Six.
05:44Sam.
05:45Dosage.
05:46Dosage, yeah.
05:47And?
05:48Gonads.
05:50Gonads.
05:51And Dan and Susie?
05:53Well, I compose myself after Moose's gonads.
05:56No, I can't bet a six, I'm afraid.
05:59Have you got a seven?
06:01You were whispering there might be a seven in there somewhere.
06:03Yes, there is an American word there in it.
06:06And there is a noun and a verb, a jonesed.
06:09Jones for something is to have a fixation on it, be addicted to it.
06:13And a jonesed, as in he jonesed for some cocaine perhaps, would be there.
06:19That would be allowable for a seven.
06:20All right.
06:21Fourteen plays six and it's Moose's numbers game.
06:24One from the top, please, Rachel.
06:27One from the top and five.
06:28Little and thank you, Moose.
06:29And the first numbers game of the week is seven.
06:32One, nine, five, four and twenty-five.
06:39And the target, five hundred and sixty-five.
06:41Five, six, five.

07:35Pretty good. Well done. But 565. Rachel, how much of a problem is that? It is there if you say 25 plus 1, 26. Times 5, 4. 104. Add 9, 113. And times it by 5. No, well done. Perfect. Well done.
07:53So, Moose on 21, Sam on 6. At this early stage, as we turn to our first Tea Time teaser, which is Loud Mince.
08:04And the glue. The answer to this won't be music to your ears. The answer to this won't be music to your ears.
08:12Welcome back. I left with the clue. The answer to this won't be music to your ears.
08:33Perhaps because it's unmelodic. Unmelodic's the answer.

10:12Sam?
10:13Ah, no, I've used a T twice.
10:16Bad luck.
10:17What's the moose done?
10:18Trimmers.
10:19Absolutely fine.
10:20Yep.
10:21And the corner, what have you got?
10:24There are a couple of eights in there,
10:26which I think the moose has just spotted,
10:28by the look of his face.
10:30Stormier is in there.
10:32Very good.
10:32And you've got another one as well.
10:33I've got another one.
10:34Miss Root?
10:35No.
10:36You've got another eight.
10:36What's your eight?
10:37Moisture.
10:38Moisture.
10:39Yeah.
10:39Very good.
10:40It's my gallantry.
10:41Stop me from saying it.
10:44All right.
10:46Moose's letters came now.

11:58And that five?
12:00Flush.
12:03Handfuls?
12:05Yes, that is absolutely brilliant.
12:11Handful indeed.
12:12You're a handful, Moose.
12:13Anything else, Dan?
12:14Well, I was going to tell you that getting handfuls was the proudest moment of my entire life,
12:19but, unfortunately, Moose has stolen my word-based thunder a little.
12:23But I got it without even any assistance from Susie, which is a rarity.
12:27And so quickly, within about two seconds.
12:29Otherwise, Nick, there's sundial for seven.
12:31All right.
12:3236 plays six, and it's Sam's numbers game.
12:35Sam?
12:36Hi, Rachel.
12:36Right, I'll have a crucifix, please.
12:39A crucifix?
12:40Are we going for one from the top and five little ones?
12:43That's right, yeah.
12:44Lovely.
12:45There we go.
12:45Right, and they are eight, three, nine, another nine, ten, and the big one, one hundred.
12:54And the target, four hundred and sixty.
12:56Four, six, zero.
12:58Four, six, zero.
13:29Sam?
13:30No, nothing, I'm afraid.
13:32How about Moose?
13:33Four, six, one.
13:35I think one away.
13:37Let's try.
13:38Yeah.
13:39Three times a hundred.
13:41Three hundred.
13:42Nine plus eight is seventeen.
13:43Yep.
13:44Times ten.
13:46One hundred and seventy.
13:47Add it on and take away the other nine.
13:49And the other nine you haven't used.
13:51Yeah, one away.
13:53Pretty good.
13:54But four sixty.
13:55Rachel, can you manage?
13:57A couple of ways.
13:58One, you could have said nine times three, twenty-seven, plus the other nine, thirty-six.
14:04Times it by ten, three hundred and sixty, and add on the one hundred.
14:09Well done.
14:15Fabulous.
14:15As we turn to Dan.
14:17Dan and Dan.
14:18Yes, sir.
14:19What have you got for us today?
14:21I wanted to share with you today some Olympic thoughts, if possible.
14:25I went to Brazil last summer to cover the Rio games.
14:28So I thought this week I'd share you a few tales about one particular lady from Brazil who I met during my time out there.
14:34I just arrived in Brazil.
14:35I got weirdly spotted a few times.
14:38People asking for pictures and autographs.
14:40And obviously no one knows who I am in Brazil.
14:44But one of the people who were with me said, the reason is, you look remarkably like a Brazilian TV presenter who's really famous over here.
14:51A guy called Tiago Lafayette.
14:53So from that point on, people kept asking me throughout the time I was there, can we have a picture?
14:58And I kept saying, listen, I'm really sorry, I'm not Tiago.
15:00Most of them just left disappointed, thinking, who are you, you big usurper?
15:04But we had a, our studio was down on Copacabana Beach and we tried to make the most of being down there.
15:10So throughout the Olympic Games, we'd interview loads of Brazilians or Cariocas, as the people of Rio are called.
15:16Because we're on the beach, we tried to make the most of speaking to them, what they thought about the games, how they felt about hosting the Olympics and, you know, home success.
15:24And about three or four nights into the Games, a Brazilian hen party sort of strolled down Copacabana Beach, very rowdy, much like our hen parties over here.
15:32And I heard somebody say, in a pretty good English accent, where are you from?
15:37So I thought, let's invite over the hen.
15:40So I invited her onto the television and it turned out to be, she was a delight.
15:45Her name was Maria, she introduced herself, I said, hi, I'm Dan, lovely to see you.
15:50We had a chat for sort of three or four minutes.
15:52And then she said, can I give you a message for my betrothed, for my husband to be?
15:56So I said, yeah, no problem, I'm not sure he's watching BBC4 in Brazil, but far away, you can go for it.
16:01But so she gave this beautiful message to her husband to be, said that he was her love, he was her crush with the words.
16:07It was a lovely, lovely opportunity to meet somebody who was really embodied the spirit of Rio de Janeiro.
16:12And I said farewell and I thought that was the end of it.
16:15The next morning I woke up and I had 204 text messages on my phone.
16:21I had emails, social media messages from all around the world wanting to know more about this girl, Maria.
16:28And I had an email from a friend of mine who works in sort of internet logistics back here in the UK.
16:33And he said, and I'll quote his message, he said, what have you done, Walker?
16:37Your interview with that girl, Maria, has already been watched by 17 and a half million people.
16:43So that interview with this beautiful bride-to-be had gone viral and the story does not end there.
16:51So make sure you watch Countdown tomorrow.
16:53I'll tell you part two of the Maria story because it becomes more fascinating the more you hear about it.
16:58Wonderful.
16:58Can't wait.
17:04Wow.
17:0543 playing out, 6.
17:07Moose's Letters game now.
17:08Thank you, Nick.
17:09A consonant, please, Rachel.
17:10Thank you, Moose.
17:11And a consonant, please.
17:40And lastly, tea.
17:43Stand by.
17:44And here.
18:05Moose.
18:16Five, I'm afraid.
18:17A five, Sam?
18:19I'll stick with a five.
18:21Moose.
18:22Tweet.
18:24And Sam Green?
18:25Wave.
18:26Wave.
18:27Very good.
18:29Can we get beyond five?
18:30No, really tough.
18:31I was just wondering if you were going to try anything longer.
18:35You had it.
18:36I was contemplating having a go at wettage.
18:40Ah.
18:41Yeah.
18:42The suffix is always a bit tricky.
18:44No, wettage but not wettage.
18:46So five's your lot, Nick, for time and thing.
18:47That's it.
18:48Yes.
18:48There we are.

21:39Well, we go into our second tea time teaser, which is Danny Cuba.
21:43And the clue, Danny went to Cuba and there were cigars on sale everywhere.
21:48Danny went to Cuba and there were cigars on sale everywhere.
21:52Welcome back.
22:09I left with a clue.
22:10Danny went to Cuba and there were cigars on sale everywhere.
22:13In fact, there was an abundancy of them.
22:17Abundancy is the answer.
22:20So, 64 to 27.
22:22And it's Sam's letters game now.
22:25Good luck, Sam.

23:34Moose?
23:35I'll try the same eight, probably.
23:38Let's see.
23:39Sam?
23:40Re-chairs.
23:42Oh, it's not.
23:44No, Moose, it's not what you have in mind, is it?
23:47No.
23:48What have you got in mind?
23:49Charlie's.
23:51Yes.
23:52I'll start with re-chair isn't in, unfortunately.
23:55Sorry about that.
23:56Charlie's, RN, lots of different meanings, including a fool.
23:59What a bunch of Charlie's.
24:00What a lot of Charlie's.
24:0272 playing 27.
24:04And it's Moose's letters game.
24:05Now then, Moose.
24:07A consonant, please, Rachel.
24:08Thank you, Moose.
24:09M.
24:10And a vowel, please.
24:12O.
24:13And a consonant.

24:17And a consonant.

24:23And a consonant.
24:26R.
24:27And a vowel.
24:30E.
24:32And a consonant.
24:35C.
24:37And a consonant, please.
24:40And lastly, T.
24:42Countdown.
24:43M.
24:55And a vowel.
24:56G.
25:02And a consonant.
25:04Mmm. Moose.
25:17Only a six, I'm afraid.
25:18Sam? Six for me as well.
25:20Moose? Erotic.
25:22Thank you. Sam? And cumming.
25:25Very good.
25:26What else have we got there? Dan?
25:29A peculiar combination, that is.
25:32There is an eight in there, as we were talking about.
25:34We'll move swiftly on. Intercom would have got you.
25:38Intercom, indeed.
25:38The full eight, yeah.
25:39All right, 78 to 33, as we turn now to that special spot.
25:44Susie, it's your Origins of Words spot.
25:48Thanks, Nick.
25:49Going to talk about ignoramuses and idiots today,
25:53so perhaps moving on from Charlie, somebody's a right Charlie,
25:56there might also be a right idiot.
25:58I'll start with ignoramus.
26:00You might probably guess that it comes from Latin,
26:03and its literal meaning was we do not know.
26:07And it was used in courts of law in England around the 16th century by grand juries.
26:13And if they wrote ignoramus or ignoramus on a piece of paper,
26:16it meant that they thought the evidence was too weak to warrant a prosecution.
26:21And it might have stayed just there within the narrow confines of the law,
26:26had it not been for a character called George Ruggle.
26:29He was a playwright.
26:30And in 1615, he wrote a play called Ignoramus.
26:34And it was also the name of the chief character of his play, who was a lawyer.
26:39And his play was essentially a satire to expose the follies
26:42and the ridiculous nature, if you like, of the law of the times.
26:47And the wits of the period, if you like, took up that name, ignoramus,
26:51the name of the character, and then applied it to fools not just within the law,
26:55but also in general society.
26:57And it's an enduring term.
26:58Obviously, we still use it today.
27:00On to idiots, they had an even more ancient, really, history.
27:04In Athenian democracy, an idiot was simply a private individual.
27:08Idios meant private.
27:10And these were people who just weren't really that interested
27:14in the public affairs of the day.
27:16They kept themselves to themselves.
27:17They were private individuals.
27:18That idios, incidentally, also gave us idiom, which was a private language.
27:22You were born into idiocy, again, that natural state of ignorance.
27:26But you were educated into citizenship.
27:29And citizenship was prized above all other things,
27:31an active participation in public affairs.
27:34And those idiots, really, were considered to be dishonorable
27:37because they didn't want to partake in this public life, if you like.
27:42Idiots were seen as having bad judgment in private affairs, in public affairs,
27:46and then generally in everything that they did.
27:49And that bad judgment then, of course, translated to foolishness and ignorance.
27:53So the link between ignoramus and idiocy, very, very different times,
27:57at the idea, again, of being in total ignorance of something
28:00and to not having a clue.
28:01Oh, brilliant.
28:03Very good.
28:0778 to 33, and it's Sam's letters game.
28:10Sam.
28:11Consonant, please.
28:12Thank you, Sam.
28:13W.
28:13And the last one, T.

29:11Sam?
29:15I'll try a six.
29:18A six?
29:19Six.
29:20So, Sam?
29:21I'll try squeak with double E.
29:25What about the moose skewed?
29:29Er, no squeak with that spelling, I'm afraid.
29:33Squee is in used to express great delight, but not squeak, I'm afraid.
29:38Bad luck, Sam.
29:39What can we have?
29:40Once again, I'm afraid the best we can do is to match the moose with six skewed.
29:45All right, 84, please.
29:4633 into the final letters game goes the moose.
29:53A consonant, please, Rachel.
29:55Thank you, moose.

30:16V.
30:18And a consonant?
30:21L.
30:21And a consonant, thank you.
30:24And to finish, P.
30:27And here's the countdown clock.
30:28amacre.
30:29Casa306,
30:40F5 Lord.
30:46And a consonant?
30:48And a connotation?
30:48And a consonant?
30:49And a vowel?
30:50I.
30:52And a consonant?
30:52Once again, we'll be able to do it.
30:53You know, pick them out the vowel.
30:54Behind theë©´!
30:54And a consonant?
30:54And a consonant?
30:56And a vowel?
30:56And a consonant?
30:57The Cottage!
30:58Yes, Moose?
31:01Nine.
31:03Sam?
31:04Six.
31:06And that's six.
31:07Poultry.
31:09Mr. Rosser, privately.
31:11Excellent.
31:12Well done.
31:19And he's over the 100.
31:20102 plays 33, and it's Sam's final numbers game.
31:24Can I have an inverted crucifix this time, please?
31:28You can, indeed.
31:30Inverted crucifix.
31:31Still one larger than five little.
31:33And for the final time today, they are three, nine, six, eight.
31:40Another eight, and 100.
31:43And the target, 425.
31:46425.
31:54Yes, Sam?
32:19427.
32:21427, Moose?
32:22I think 424.
32:24Let's try Moose, shall we?
32:25Yeah.
32:26Nine times eight is 72.
32:28Yeah.
32:29Times six, I hope, is 432.
32:32It is.
32:33And take away the other eight.
32:35And 424, yeah.
32:37One away.
32:37Well done.
32:37Well done.
32:38Well done.
32:39But 425, maybe.
32:40Rachel, you can help us.
32:41Yes, it was there.
32:43If you say 8 plus 9, 17, times 100, 1700.
32:49And then 3 times the other eight, 24, divided by 6, is 4.
32:53And divide it.
32:54425.
32:55Well done.
32:56Very good.
32:57So, Moose, 109.
33:01Brilliant stuff, Sam.
33:0233.
33:02That's not bad when you're playing against a man of Moose's calibre.
33:07Let's go into the final round.
33:10Fingers on buzzers, both of you.
33:12Let's roll today's countdown conundrum.
33:14Moose, overslept.
33:25Overslept.
33:26Let's see whether you're right.
33:28Overslept.
33:29Here we go.
33:29Well done.
33:36Fabulous performance.
33:37Fabulous.
33:38119.
33:39Sam, bad luck.
33:40He's a bit formidable.
33:41Not my finest hour, but, yeah, he's a good man.
33:44You did all right.
33:45You did very well.
33:46You did better than many.
33:47But back to Chelmsford.
33:49Take this goodie bag back with you with our best wishes, too.
33:53So, Moose, how many have you got tied up now?
33:56I think it's six.
33:57I think it is, too.
33:58Yeah.
33:58Fabulous performance.
33:59And I think today is your highest score, 119.
34:02I'll take your word for that.
34:04Strong stuff.
34:04See you tomorrow.
34:05Yeah.
34:05Well done.
34:06And we'll see you both tomorrow?
34:08Yep.
34:08Maybe we're back.
34:09Indeed.
34:10Rachel, what do you reckon, then, with our Moose?
34:13Oh, the only way is Essex.
34:14It's a slightly different reflection on our county, isn't it?
34:17We've got two good competitors.
34:18Yeah.
34:19Yeah, but Moose is absolutely flying.
34:21He's brilliant.
34:21He's brilliant indeed.
34:22See you tomorrow.
34:23See you tomorrow.
34:24Join us, then.
34:24Same time, same place.
34:26You be sure of it.
