00:31Well, good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown Studios.
00:33It's the 17th of July.
00:35Unlike every other day in the calendar, somebody's hijacked it.
00:38Somebody's colonised it.
00:39And today, Rachel, the emoji has colonised it.
00:43Today is Emoji Day, World Emoji Day.
00:47Can you imagine? It's extraordinary.
00:48All this kicked off, apparently, back in 2014.
00:51And now emoji followers dress up as emojis in Korea around the country,
00:56bringing attention to the emoji,
00:57which actually, interestingly, I find, was invented back in 1999 by Mr Curita.
01:04Now, I'm too old, really, for the emoji,
01:08but I know, because I've seen some of your tweets,
01:11quite a lot of emojis lurking in there.
01:14Yeah, quite like an emoji.
01:15Why is it?
01:16I mean, it's an emotion, or it's meant to express an emotion,
01:20but you do it for the fun of it, really, because it's witty.
01:23A picture paints a thousand words to it.
01:25OK.
01:25And you only get 280 characters, so you've got to shove them all in there.
01:29And plus, especially on Twitter, you can't tell tone,
01:31so you can't tell sarcasm or joking.
01:34So sometimes you need an emoji just to say,
01:36I am joking, before everyone says...
01:39That's true.
01:39Why did you say that?
01:40I thought it was 140 characters.
01:42You can go up to 280, but you then...
01:45Can you still tweet 280?
01:46Yeah, they changed it.
01:48It used to be 140 back in the day.
01:50Do I have to redo my settings or something?
01:51No, no, you're already doing it without realising, yes.
01:55Like most things.
01:56Congratulations.
01:56I do, actually.
01:58Who's with us?
01:59We've got that James Horton back again.
02:01You know, the one that scored 118 yesterday.
02:03Welcome back, James.
02:05He'd be the PhD student from Manchester.
02:08Great debut.
02:09Great debut.
02:10Well done.
02:11Well done.
02:11Thank you very much.
02:12And now you've got to clamber past Darren Rampton.
02:15Welcome, Darren.
02:15Music teacher from Basingstoke.
02:18Teachers at Shelfield School.
02:20That's right, Nick.
02:20Brilliant.
02:21And you play in a band, Function Band.
02:22Perform at weddings and all the rest of it.
02:24Yep.
02:25Functions.
02:26So you...
02:26What sort of band are you?
02:28You've got to tailor your music to the event, I suppose, have you?
02:31Yeah, it's whatever gets people up dancing and having fun, really.
02:35Okay.
02:35So you sing or what?
02:37I do sing a bit.
02:38I mainly play guitar.
02:39Okay.
02:39But I can sing if I have to.
02:42All right.
02:43Good.
02:44Well, listen, have fun, guys.
02:45Big round of applause for James and Darren.
02:51Susie's in the corner, sitting next to that wonderful guy.
02:55Delighted to welcome for the first time, impressionist, comedian and political observer,
02:59the great Rory Bramner.
03:01Welcome, Rory.
03:04Now, what's your favourite emoji?
03:07Do you use emojis?
03:08I do.
03:09I use them a lot.
03:09They're all orange, though.
03:10I think there should be a Donald Trump emoji.
03:12You'd think that'd be great, but I think that'd be very good, because they've all got
03:16orange faces.
03:17And, by the way, I love Countdown.
03:19I love Countdown.
03:20I hold the record.
03:21I was the only one to do a word with ten letters.
03:25Ten letters.
03:26That sounds like Trump.
03:27You know what it was?
03:28Delusional.
03:30Well done.
03:30Fantastic.
03:31Very good.
03:32Well done.
03:32Well done.
03:34Thanks, Rory.
03:35All right, let's get down to business, James.
03:37You know how it works.
03:38Take it away.
03:39Yes.
03:40Hi, Rachel.
03:40Hi, James.
03:41Can I have a consonant, please?
03:43Start today with C.
03:46And another.
03:49R.
03:49And another.
03:52T.
03:53And another.
03:54G.
03:57Vowl, please.

04:08And another.
04:10O.
04:12And a final consonant, please.
04:15A final R.
04:17And here's the Countdown clock.
04:30Bye.
04:50Well, James?
04:51Seven.
04:52And Darren?
04:53Six.
04:54And your six is?
04:55Garter.
04:56Garter, James.
04:58Cortage?
05:00There will be a cortege.
05:02But not a cortege, I'm afraid.
05:04Sorry, James.
05:06What about the corner?
05:08What about Rory and Susie?
05:10What do you reckon?
05:11I think seven, creator.
05:14Creator indeed.
05:16Susie?
05:16Yeah, we're straight off the blocks.
05:18It's brilliant.
05:18We have erotica as well for seven.
05:20Oh, thank goodness for that.
05:22Well done.
05:24So, six for Darren.
05:25Good start, Darren.
05:26Now it's your letters game.
05:28Good afternoon, Rachel.
05:28Afternoon, Darren.
05:29Can I start with a consonant, please?
05:31We start with M.
05:33And another one, please.
05:35B.
05:36And a vowel?
05:37A.
05:39Another one?
05:40E.
05:42Consonant?
05:43L.
05:45Consonant?
05:46D.
05:48A vowel?
05:51U.
05:53A vowel?
05:55A vowel?
05:56And a final consonant?
05:58And a final F.
06:01Stand by.
06:01A vowel模omer.
06:20geben
06:21A vowel architecture.
06:23Sniando?
06:24A vowel course.
06:24A ее?
06:25A vowel?
06:30A vowel.
06:31A vowel.
06:33Darren.
06:34Six.
06:35Yes, James.
06:36Seven.
06:37Darren.
06:38Balmed.
06:39Now then.
06:41Fumbled.
06:42Yeah, excellent.
06:43Very, very good.
06:44Fumbled, yeah.
06:45And the corner.
06:47Yes, we had fumbled.
06:48We had fumbled.
06:49No, balmed, unfortunately.
06:51Balmy, but not balmed.
06:53Seven plays.
06:54Six.
06:54James, one point in the lead.
06:56James, your numbers game.
06:57Four large again, please.
06:59Four large.
07:00Thank you, James.
07:00James and two little ones to wake us all up.
07:03First, numbers of the day are five, one, and the big four.
07:07Seventy-five, one hundred, fifty, and twenty-five.
07:11And the target, nine hundred and twenty-seven.
07:14Nine-two-seven.
07:15Nine-two-seven.
07:46Yes, James?
07:47Nine-two-five.
07:49Two away.
07:50Darren?
07:51Nine-two-five.
07:52Nine-two-five.
07:53Okay, James.
07:55So, five plus one is six.
07:58Five plus one, six.
08:00Hundred plus fifty is a hundred and fifty.
08:02Yep.
08:05Hundred and fifty times six is nine-hundred.
08:08Nine-hundred.
08:09And then add the twenty-five.
08:10Yep, two away, nine-two-five.
08:12And Darren?
08:13Same way.
08:13Good man.
08:15Is it possible?
08:17I found a way.
08:18If you say seventy-five divided by twenty-five is three.
08:23Add it to one hundred for one hundred and three.
08:27And then fifty divided by five is ten.
08:30Less than one is nine.
08:31And tighten together.
08:32Lovely, Rachel.
08:34And now it's time for our first tea-time teaser, which is Fine Apart.
08:38On the clue, she said everything about giving birth felt fine, apart from the discomfort a few days later.
08:43She said everything about giving birth felt fine, apart from the discomfort a few days later.
09:05Welcome back.
09:06I left with a clue.
09:07She said everything about giving birth felt fine, apart from the discomfort a few days later.
09:13And the answer to that is after pain.
09:16After pain.

10:56Er, long-distance lorry driver in France
10:59or a member of a band of mercenaries in France
11:01in late medieval times.
11:03Very good.
11:03Routier, yeah.
11:04Now, what about the corner?
11:06Er, we have Wipeout as well for another seven.
11:08Wipeout.
11:09Oh, yes, very good.
11:11Now, 20 plays 21.
11:13Same difference.
11:14James, your letters game.
11:16Could I have a consonant, please, Rachel?
11:17Thank you, James.

12:21I.
12:26Well, James?
12:28Try seven.
12:30Darren?
12:30Try seven.
12:32Yes, James?
12:34Noshing?
12:36Darren?
12:37Shooing?
12:37Yes, both absolutely fine.
12:39Both good?
12:40Yes.
12:41Going for a nosh.
12:43Now then, what do we think?
12:46Rory?
12:46Susie?
12:47We were shooing as well, I'm afraid.
12:49Yes, that was ours.
12:49Yes, it was ours.
12:50We were the Ings.
12:51As far as it went?
12:52Yes.
12:53One point, 28 plus 27.
12:56Darren, now, numbers.
12:59Let's see how you get on here.
13:01Can I have two large and four small, please, Rachel?
13:03You can indeed, thank you, Darren.
13:04Two from the top, switched them around this time.
13:06And these four little ones are 1, 5, 10 and 8,
13:11and the large two, 75 and 100.
13:14And the target, 242.
13:17242.
13:20242.
13:48Well done.
13:49Darren?
13:50It's 2, 3, 4.
13:52Mmm.
13:53James.
13:54242.
13:56Off we go.
13:57So, 100 minus 75 equals 25.
14:00100 less 75, 25.
14:02Multiply by 10.
14:04250.
14:04Because 250.
14:05And then subtract the 8.
14:07Perfect.
14:08242.
14:09Well done.
14:10Well done.
14:13Okay, so James has sprung a lead there, 38 to Darren's 27 as we turn to Rory.
14:19Rory, a great impersonator.
14:22Great impersonator of many politicians.
14:25Yes.
14:25Does it help to actually meet them face to face?
14:29No, I tended to avoid them for a while.
14:32Occasionally I bump into Paddy Ashtown, who I resemble a little bit.
14:37He says, my wife says you look exactly like me.
14:40And I asked him to do a book festival.
14:42I said, I'll see you in July.
14:44And he said, not if I see you in the mirror first.
14:46No.
14:47But my favourite was Tony Benn.
14:48Do you remember Tony Benn?
14:48Yeah.
14:49Labour polish.
14:50And he was a fan of the show.
14:51And he used to say, he said, what?
14:52I bumped into him at a political awards thing.
14:54And he said, are you doing me in the show this week?
14:56I said, yes, I think we are.
14:57He said, well, that's good.
14:58Because if you're not doing me, I feel in some way I don't matter.
15:02And then he said, but don't be too unkind.
15:04Don't be too unkind this week because I've got to see Saddam Hussein this week.
15:08I said, oh, really?
15:09He said, yes, I've got to see him on Saturday or Sunday because I've got to be in Leeds on
15:12Tuesday.
15:14A great week, isn't it?
15:15Saddam Hussein.
15:16I don't know what he was doing in Leeds.
15:18Probably Countdown, I should think.
15:19Excellent.
15:20Brilliant.
15:20Like, none from the top and all from the bottom because I don't believe in hierarchy.
15:26He was a wonderful man, wasn't he, actually?
15:28He was.
15:29He was a tremendous man.
15:30He loved people.
15:31Lovely guy.
15:31He was a lovely man.
15:33A decent man.
15:34Lovely.
15:35Thanks, Rory.
15:3738 plays 27.
15:40Now then, James, your letters game.
15:42Could I have a continent, please, Rachel?
15:44Thank you, James.

16:04And another.
16:06I.
16:08And another.
16:11E.
16:13And a final vowel, please.
16:16A final A.
16:19Stand by.
16:22I.
16:23I.
16:38I.
16:38I.
16:52Yes, James?
16:53I think I've got a seven.
16:55Darren?
16:56Just a four.
16:57And Darren's four is?
16:59Date.
17:00Now then, James.
17:02Pagetic?
17:03Ooh.
17:04Ooh.
17:06Um, yes.
17:08Very good.
17:09Absolutely brilliant.
17:09Term from medicine, and it means affected by Paget's disease of the bone,
17:16which is a chronic disease of elderly people characterised by alteration of bone tissue.
17:22Very, very good.
17:23Well, well.
17:27Pretty impressive, James.
17:2945 plays 27.
17:31Now, Darren, your letters came.
17:34Consolidant, please, Rachel.
17:35Thank you, Darren.

17:37And another one.

18:03And the last one.
18:04D.
18:05You stand by him?
18:06No, la.
18:09You stand by him.
18:09Something that's awesome.
18:29Bye.
18:29Bye.
18:32Bye.
18:35Bye.
18:36Bye.
18:37Well, Darren, try a seven.
18:39A seven, and just a fix for me.
18:42Your six is?
18:43Idiots.
18:44Darren?
18:46Outrids.
18:49Really unlucky.
18:50Outride is there, and outbid as well, but not outrids.
18:55But a really good try, I would say.
18:57Worth a shot.
18:58Yeah.
18:59How about Rory?
19:00I'm afraid I'm with the idiots.
19:02Not the first time that's been said.
19:03No, and Susie?
19:06Yes, no more.
19:07You with the idiots?
19:08Studio as well.
19:09All right.
19:10Getting idiots is pretty good, I think.
19:1251 to 27.
19:15James, your numbers came.
19:17We'll try four large again, please.
19:19Back for some more four large fun.
19:21Why not?
19:22Thank you, James.
19:22And this time we have seven and one.
19:26And the large four.
19:2750, 75, 25, 100.
19:30And the target, 963.
19:34963.
20:06Well, James?
20:089, 5, 7, not written down.
20:119, 5, 7. How about Darren?
20:159, 7, 5.
20:18Too far out.
20:20James?
20:21100 plus 50 plus 1.
20:25151.
20:29Multiply by 7 should be 1,057.
20:33Yep.
20:35Then 75 plus 25 is 100 and take it away.
20:39Is 100 and 9, 5, 7.
20:43Rachel, can you close that gap for us?
20:46I got a little bit closer, but this one's actually impossible.
20:50It's an impossible one.
20:50Yeah, well done. Good effort.
20:52Thank you. Thanks, Rachel.
20:53All right, so 56 to 27.
20:56James in the lead as we go into our second Tea Time teaser,
21:00which is party bids and the clue.
21:02They were going to have a bit of a party,
21:04but only after they'd been here for the christening.
21:07They were going to have a bit of a party,
21:09but only after they'd been here for the christening.
21:27Welcome back.
21:28I left you with a clue.
21:29They were going to have a bit of a party,
21:30but only after they'd been here for the christening.
21:33And where was that?
21:34Why?
21:34It was the baptistry.
21:36Baptistry is the answer to that one.
21:3856 plays 27.
21:41Darren, your letters game?

22:44You.
22:49Yes, Darren.
22:51Trinates.
22:52James.
22:54I'll stick with an ape.
22:56You'll stick with an ape?
22:57Yeah, interesting.
22:58Darren.
23:00Anemones.
23:01And James.
23:03Neonates.
23:05Neonates, yeah, both absolutely fine.
23:07Neonates is, in medical terms, a newborn child.
23:11It's usually an infant less than four weeks old, I think.
23:13Um, anemones, beautiful.
23:16Um, lovely etymology, that one.
23:18It means daughters of the wind, anemones.
23:20Oh, lovely.
23:21That's right.
23:23James.
23:24James, what were you toying with?
23:27Namestone?
23:29Namestone.
23:31Um, no.
23:32Oh.
23:33Made the right decision.
23:34Well done.
23:35And in the corner?
23:37Anemones.
23:38Anemones were there?
23:40Mm.
23:40Yes.
23:41All right.
23:4264 to 35.
23:43James, you're back on.
23:44Letters again.
23:46Could I have a consonant, please, Rachel?
23:48Thank you, James.
23:48R.
23:50And another?
23:52L.
23:54And another?
23:56W.
23:58And another?
24:01R.
24:02And a final consonant, please.
24:26Final L.
24:28Stand by.
24:29Again.
24:47Bye.
24:47Bye.
24:47Bye.
24:59James.
25:01Just a six.
25:02A six.
25:03Darren.
25:04Five.
25:04And a five, your five.
25:06Uriel.
25:08James.
25:09Awari.
25:12OK, so Uriel is a wild sheep with long legs and small horns.
25:16So that's a very good one.
25:18What was yours, James?
25:19Awari.
25:20O-W-A-R-R-I.
25:23Yeah, brilliant.
25:24Yes, it's a board game.
25:25I haven't heard of this.
25:27Originally played in West Africa, consisting of small balls passed into the holes of an oblong draft board.
25:33Amazing.
25:34That's lovely.
25:35That's amazing.
25:36Let's go to Susie.
25:38Oh, Susie, you'll like this, Rory.
25:40I'm looking forward to this.
25:42This is a perfectly packaged, brilliantly executed essay.
25:47Susie, what have you got for us today?
25:49Well, I've been talking this week about words from fairgrounds and public entertainment,
25:53so I thought I'd sort of continue with the game theme and talk about some of the words and expressions
25:58we get from that.
25:59Going back to medieval times, as I often do, wearing your heart on your sleeve.
26:04That goes back to medieval jousting matches.
26:08So when a king's court held a jousting match, the competing knights would often dedicate their performance to the woman
26:15that they were courting.
26:16And to show, to demonstrate their allegiance to their sweetheart, they would wear the colours of their lady on cloths
26:24and ribbons, really, that were tied to their arms, often quite elaborate ones.
26:27And it was Shakespeare, as so often, who popularised the phrase, in Othello, I will wear my heart upon my
26:33sleeve.
26:34So that goes back to jousting.
26:36Come forward a little bit and palming off.
26:39If you palm someone off with something, it's an expression that actually originated with a world of card playing and
26:44involves cheating.
26:45You might be able to guess this one, really.
26:47There's a dealer, obviously, who deals all the cards.
26:50But if that person finds that there's a card that is unfavourable, really, to their particular game, they might, through
26:57sleight of hand, just sort of palm it and then hide it somewhere and feel themselves a sort of more
27:02favourable card.
27:03So, again, fairly obvious.
27:04But the one I really liked was no dice, because this was a bit of a surprise to me.
27:09You have to go back to early 20th century America.
27:12And this is when gambling with dice was illegal in many states.
27:16And so gamblers went to great pains to hide the dice if the police suddenly stormed the building and were
27:22looking for evidence of gambling.
27:24And courts would sometimes throw out cases if dice weren't offered in evidence.
27:30So the dice were the hard proof that this sort of illegal activity had been going on.
27:34So it's very, very likely that the no dice, no conviction idea then propelled that expression into English, meaning, as
27:41I say, nothing doing, no way.
27:43But I love that one.
27:44I had no idea about the S-mology of that one.
27:46Very good.
27:46No dice.
27:52Sort of age now, isn't it?
27:54You wouldn't hear it these days, would you?
27:56No dice.
27:56No dice.
27:56Do you think?
27:57Yeah, I think it's still current.
27:58More American, I think, now.
27:59Yeah.
27:59No dice.
28:00No dice.
28:01It feels, yeah.
28:0270 plays, 35.
28:04James in the lead.
