00:30Good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown Studio, 21st of February. 21st of February, 21. I thought, hmm, I wonder if there's anybody well-known celebrating their 21st birthday today. And so it was that I put our mighty research team onto it and they've come up with a very interesting answer. And the answer is yes, at least one. And that one will be of interest to you, Rachel.
00:54Yeah. A keen Manchester United supporter. You will no doubt have heard of the defender Phil Jones, who's 21 today. I have heard of him. I've all met him as well. Have you? I have. Happy birthday then, together. Happy birthday, Phil Jones, yeah. Great defender.
01:07And imagine this, 21, playing for Man United, and I think he's also stepping out for England. Is that right?
01:14Yeah, I think he's doing really well. And he's playing a bit of midfield for United as well. So, yeah, can play all over the field.
01:20Brilliant, at 21.
01:21I met him at a Man United Unicef event and he helped. We did a game on stage and we raised £30,000.
01:27Brilliant. That was good fun.
01:28Is he a big lad as a defender?
01:30He's quite tall, yeah. He's not massive, you know, but he is tall.
01:34He'll, um, he'll broaden out, as they say.
01:37Yes, they'll work on his upper body and, yeah, as you say, broaden out.
01:40I think they'll work on almost everything. Brilliant stuff.
01:42Now, who have we got here that's been working out recently?
01:45We've got Jonathan Rawlinson, who's been doing a lot of brain exercise, studying maths at Cambridge.
01:50You pop up and down here a lot, Jonathan.
01:54And here you are in the first quarterfinal. Brilliant stuff.
01:57I think you were beaten as a finalist last year, but you're heading towards the, perhaps the final of all finals.
02:05The great 30-year competition.
02:08A couple of close games, I think, depending on getting the conundrum.
02:11You had a comfortable round beating Tom Rawl, I think, wasn't it?
02:16Yeah, in the last round.
02:17You gave him a bit of a thrashing. 29 points.
02:20So, you came in at a score of 94.
02:22So, how are you feeling? Confident?
02:25Um, I'm quite surprised to still be here.
02:27So, I think anything now is a bonus, really.
02:30Good. That's the sort of modesty we like here at Countdown.
02:34And you're joined by Neil, who was here yesterday.
02:36He was running behind for a while, Neil, weren't you?
02:41And then you came through and you won rather well, actually.
02:43Semi-finalists back in 2009 from Halifax.
02:46Yep.
02:47You beat Dave Hoskerson on a crucial conundrum with a score of 90.
02:52So, look out, Jonathan.
02:53And, er, you had a decent night's sleep.
02:57You learnt out clubbing with Rachel, were you?
02:58No, no.
02:59I think the adrenaline kicked in.
03:01I've not slept much since my last game.
03:03You haven't?
03:04If at all, I'm sure.
03:05Anyway, good luck to you both, Neil.
03:08Neil and Jonathan.
03:09Big round of applause.
03:15Very good indeed.
03:17Anyway, there we are.
03:18Welcome back, Susie.
03:19Have you been using the hair head massager that Dr Phil,
03:23who's sitting next to you looking pleased, gave you the other day?
03:26No, he wouldn't let me take it to home.
03:28Would he?
03:28No, two to himself, really.
03:30Well, I don't think she's been trained sufficiently to use it safely.
03:33So, you...
03:34I'm having to tutor her.
03:35Yeah.
03:35In five-minute sessions.
03:37Absolutely.
03:37Building up to a maximum half an hour of pleasure is the maximum you're allowed.
03:41Brilliant.
03:42Back to you shortly.
03:43But in the meantime, we ought to get this first quarterfinal up and running.
03:47Jonathan, would you be good enough?

06:39Soigne. Soigne. Yes, lovely. Looking very well-groomed and immaculately looking soignee. Very nice.
06:45Anything else in the corner from the Soigne doctor?
06:48Yes, I was thinking of giving Susie a nosegay, but I don't know what it is.
06:52I hope I don't need one. What is a nosegay?
06:54A nosegay. Well, they're very pretty bunches of scented flowers.
06:58Right. But in Elizabethan times, they were really necessary to hide certain body odours. Not very nice.
07:04So nosegays were very popular in Shakespearean times for that reason, but that's there for seven.
07:08You don't need a nosegay, I can confirm. I do apologise.
07:1214 all. And, Jonathan, I call upon you. Letters go.

09:39Jonathan.
09:40Just five.
09:40Not written down.
09:42Shall we hear from you, Jonathan?
09:43Expats.
09:44Expat.
09:44Two expats.
09:45Same word.
09:46Yeah.
09:46Well done.
09:48Suppose you're a bit of an expat, aren't you, Doctor?
09:51Yeah, I suppose I am a bit.
09:52Yeah.
09:53That's all we've got as well.
09:54There's five.
09:54Nothing more than that.
09:55All right.
09:56OK.
09:57So, 26 all.
09:59Now then, Jonathan, are you going to make a break for it?
10:01Your numbers game.
10:02And there's Rachel.
10:03Can I have four large, please, Rachel?
10:04You can.
10:05The opposite of nil's six small, if there is an opposite.
10:08Four large ones and two little ones.
10:10And for the first time today, the numbers are six, seven and the large for 50, 25, 75 and 100.
10:19And the target to reach, 830.
10:22830.
10:23830.
10:23830.
10:49831, not written down.
10:57831?
10:58Now then, nil.
10:59I'm miles away.
11:00OK.
11:02Jonathan.
11:03100 plus 25.
11:04100 plus 25, 125.
11:07Multiply by 7.
11:08Multiply by 7, it's 875.
11:10Take away 50.
11:11Yep, for 825.
11:13And then add 6.
11:14And that's 831 and 1 away.
11:16Is that as near as one can get, or can you...?
11:19Yeah, lots of different ways to get one away, but I think this one's impossible.
11:22That's as good as it gets.
11:23All right.
11:24Thank you, Rachel.
11:24Very good.
11:2533 to 26.
11:27So Jonathan has broken away.
11:30But now, Dr Phil, come on.
11:34You're laying down the gauntlet there.
11:36Well, continuing on my themed week, we've had tickling it better, we've had knitting it better,
11:41we've had kissing it better.
11:42Today we're going to be surfing it better.
11:43And I don't mean surfing as in riding a wave, although that's obviously very good for you.
11:48I mean, the use of technology in healthcare is one way to, I think, to save the NHS.
11:52I noticed you on your little phone, your chubby fingers ordering your pills online.
11:57You're doing that over the phone now?
11:58Yes, thank you.
11:59Trying to spell Viagra.
12:00I saw that.
12:00There are two hours in Viagra.
12:02I had to help you out there, didn't I?
12:04But it's interesting.
12:04We should be using technology far more.
12:06It's ridiculous that you go to hospital.
12:08People are still using written notes.
12:09Often you can't read the notes.
12:11Often when there's a medical legal problem, notes go missing.
12:14Notes are confused.
12:16We should be using technology far more.
12:18What's ridiculous about the NHS, I guess, is we don't have a unified computer system.
12:21So the computer systems don't marry up.
12:23You can't access the notes in hospital.
12:25They can't access the notes in general practice or in social care, which is a nonsense.
12:29So the government have made a bold promise that the NHS will be paperless in about three years' time.
12:34I will believe that when I see it.
12:36But we tried doing it before from a top-down approach.
12:38We tried imposing a big, complex computer system on the NHS.
12:41Actually, it needs to be bottom-up.
12:43And what's interesting now is a lot of people are turning around their health care using apps.
12:47So people with chronic diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, are measuring their peak flow and their breathing at home, feeding into a central database.
12:54If there's a problem, they pick it up more quickly.
12:56They stop them going into hospital.
12:57So there are lots of cases where people with chronic diseases are being managed better.
13:01But where it gets really interesting is when people carry around their own devices and start holding doctors to account.
13:06So if I go onto this little device, there are lots of little apps I've got on here.
13:10The first one, and I found out this from a patient who came in to see me, GP ratings.
13:14You can put in the postcode where you're at, and it will give the ratings of the general practice in the area, according to official Department of Health feedback.
13:21So where we are now, sitting in this studio, I can find one, two, three, four, five practices.
13:25One of them has half a star.
13:27One of them has four and a half stars.
13:29Really?
13:29So I can go into there, and I can look in immediately.
13:32Would patients recommend the GP surgery to others?
13:34Are patients happy with the opening hours?
13:36How helpful was the receptionist?
13:37That's pretty revolutionary.
13:38We've never had that before.
13:39Generally, you've just gone to your nearest GP because he's nearest, and that's it.
13:43Sure.
13:43So what the government are hoping is that people will start shopping around.
13:45So you've picked your GP.
13:47Now, the beauty now is, if I go onto symptom sorter, you can now make your own diagnosis.
13:51And then finally, the government have promised to publish the success rates of individual surgeons by the summer in ten different specialties.
13:58So if you're having a hip replacement, you're having heart surgery, you'll be able to see the success rates of a named surgeon.
14:04Now, there's a slight concern there that surgeons will start not doing tricky operations because they don't want to fall down the league table.
14:09And how do you train new surgeons whose statistics that go under, the training surgeon or the consultant?
14:15But I think it's interesting.
14:16I think we should be more transparent.
14:17We should, because of all the horror stories we've had.
14:19So get out there, be a consumer, shop around, give some feedback.
14:22Brilliant stuff.
14:23Very good.
14:24Very good.
14:28I want the names of some of those sites, if you don't mind, in a moment.
14:32But now it's time for a tea-time teaser.
14:34And the teaser is Italy car.
14:37And the clue, the quality of being keen and ready to go.
14:42The quality of being keen and ready to go.
14:59Welcome back.
15:00Welcome back.
15:01I left you with the clue, the quality of being keen and ready to go.
15:04And the answer is alacrity.
15:07Alacrity.
15:09Alacrity.
15:09Yes.
15:1033 to 26, as Jonathan's got his nose in front.
15:15So, Neil, what are you going to do about it?
15:16Let us go.

21:00Yes, Jonathan seven seven. Yeah, Neil. I think I've got a seven. Okay, Jonathan a variant. Thank you
21:10And both of you and my well done
21:13Well done and in the corner now. We got various nothing else
21:18No, nothing else was a five there fakir f-a-k-i-r which is a Muslim who is a religious
21:24Aesthetic and lives entirely on arms really to five yes very good
21:31Very good 59 to 39 as we now come back to Susie for your origins of words
21:38Thank you well
21:39I've been sailing around on high seas all week and I thought I'd start with pirates because if you look at the Oxford English corpus
21:46Which is this wonderful database showing current language in use you'll see that pirates they may not have peg legs and parrots these days
21:53but actually since 2007
21:55There's been a huge surge in mentions of pirates and of course around the horn of Africa. There have been many sad
22:02Pirate incidents and but also of course we have the piracy on the internet computing
22:08Films etc. So pirates still alive and well
22:11Unfortunately, but one thing they may do is to run a mock
22:15Which is to be wild and out of control and that may not strike you as an English word and you'd be right because it comes from a
22:21Malaysian word and the malay dictionary defines it as
22:24Engaging furiously in battle attacking with desperate resolution
22:28Rushing in a state of frenzy to the commission of indiscriminate murder so pirates indeed
22:33But those who rushed in this way were tribesmen and they were called amukos and under the influence of opium
22:39They would go rampaging
22:41Attacking anyone and everyone they came across and the phrase was carried back to England during the 17th century when travel writers
22:48Would write of their exploits overseas and actually in a similar vein and there was once a teutonic race
22:55And in the course of the fourth century, they ransacked gaul then spain then africa and then they headed to rome where they
23:02pillaged and destroyed
23:04Public monuments just for the sake of it and works of art actually and these people were known as the vandals and they're the root of our turn today

27:12it's when an atom, molecule or substance
27:15can be converted into an iron,
27:17as you might expect,
27:18by removing one or more electrons.
27:21We just had sevens, otherwise.

32:41Now then we're going to the final round. It's conundrum time so fingers on buzzers, and let's reveal today's countdown conundrum
32:53Yes, Jonathan impotency impotency
32:57Let's see where you're right
32:59You are indeed
33:05Well done, and we shall see you on Wednesday
33:09Steaming towards the final well done Jonathan Neil sadly we won't see you you've had a great run, but you came up against a
33:16Jonathan Rawlinson who's on fire. Yeah, it wasn't my best performance, but he's just amazing
33:21You'd have seen me anyway. He's good, but you're good. So not good enough with our best wishes
33:26You take your teapot in your piece of priceless some kryptonite back at home to Halifax
33:32Yes, excellent stuff. We shall see you on Wednesday young man. I'm looking forward to it. Brilliant
33:37See you tomorrow Susie
33:39See you tomorrow
33:40And one thing I did want to ask of a good doctor is what is it about the medical profession comedy?
33:45Apparently Harry Hill was dr
33:47Harry Hill yeah, and my favorite
33:50Joe brand whom I love was a psychiatric nurse
33:55Graham garden graham garden graham chapman graham chapman too
33:59Yeah in Monty Python. He was that's right
34:01Try it my former comedy partner
34:03I used to be in a double act called struck off and die
34:05With a chap called Tony Gardner who has now recently starred in fresh meat and last tango in Halifax
34:10I think what saddens me is that most of them give up the day job
34:12I think if I went to a surgery and Harry Hill was there with Joe brand graham chapman graham garden. What a surgery that'd be
34:19Yeah, so that's the thing that saddens me
34:21I I carry on doing the day job
34:23But actually of all the things I don't think making people laugh is probably more use than dishing out loads of pills medicines for them
34:28Maybe so you've got a constant, you know source of good material coming through anyway
34:33I'm in Guildford tonight, and I bet you I do far more good making people laugh than I would dishing out
34:37You know blood pressure pills and cholesterol tablets and all the rest of it
34:40I have no doubt about it, and we shall see you tomorrow last day of the week last day of the week. Oh, yes
34:44Was that a little wave of me? I just know I was just thinking once then my mum took a call and the doctor was ringing for my dad
34:51Yeah, and it was dr. Kumar. It was the same kind of time that there was that comedy program the kumars that number whatever it was
34:57So she thought it was someone having a laugh so she did oh hello mr. Dr. Kumar
35:00Yes, I'll pass you along and it was actually the doctor so sometimes doctors are just doctors
35:07Very good boy excellent we see you tomorrow see you tomorrow and we look forward to seeing you tomorrow same time
35:13Same place how I'm looking forward to my rock cake and for those who've missed the earlier part of the week hard luck
35:20See you same time same place tomorrow
35:38Calling time on a British institution tonight Samantha Fox and Linda Lussardi reveal all in the definitive history of page three
