00:30Good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown Studio.
00:33And I suppose, inevitably, we all find ourselves in a bit of an argument from time to time.
00:38But how good are we at winning them?
00:40Well, I've got here some top tips from an organisation called, you'll love this, Rachel, the Centre for Argument Technology.
00:48Now, what are these top tips?
00:51Be relevant. People who get sidetracked and go off topic weaken their stance.
00:57Happy with that?
00:58Now, know what your opponent's argument will be and prepare a counter-argument to counter that.
01:04That makes sense.
01:05And thirdly, listen carefully and don't dominate the conversation.
01:08The deadliest points tend to be short and sharp.
01:11Do you agree?
01:12Yep.
01:13I don't.
01:15Here we go. Come on then, Nick.
01:17But surely an argument, the winning or losing depends not so much on the way you present it, but also
01:24the merits of the argument, don't you think?
01:26Anyway, I'm too old for arguments.
01:27I don't know. You can ask Susie about post-truth these days and you can argue over facts and alternative
01:32facts and all sorts.
01:33You only have to go online and you've got some people disagreeing with...
01:37Isn't that so tragic that actually you can stare at the obvious things straight in the face and people will...
01:44Because there's no way out of that, is there?
01:47Well, my number one rule in life is never argue with an idiot.
01:50And that often shuts down an argument in the first place.
01:53But if people aren't using logic and rationale to make their arguments in the first place, then you're never going
01:57to win it using logic and rationale.
02:00Yeah.
02:00Just shut it down there and then.
02:03Right.
02:04Mary's back.
02:05Welcome back, Mary Bainbridge, retired teacher from Letchley in Gloucestershire.
02:10Three steady wins.
02:12Well done.
02:13Done with great decorum and cum.
02:15And you're up against Amit Amin.
02:18Welcome, Amit.
02:18Hello.
02:19A risk and control manager from Mitchitt in Surrey.
02:23And a keen sportsman loves his cricket and he loves his football and he loves his Tottenham.
02:28Is that right?
02:28I do, yes.
02:29Do you get to go occasionally?
02:30More so now it's at Wembley.
02:32The tickets are more available because the old ground is quite small.
02:35Well, good luck to you both, Amit and Mary.
02:38Big round of applause for our competitors.
02:44Wonderful.
02:45And over in the corner, Susie, of course, joined once again by antiques expert and dealer, television personality Raj Bisram.
02:52Welcome back, Raj.
02:57Big welcome there.

05:51We've got a seven letter one.
05:54Launder.

07:258, 7, 4.
07:26Rachel?
07:27There were a couple of ways.
07:28If you say 7 plus 5 plus 1 is 13.
07:32100 minus 13 is 87.
07:36Times that by 10 for 870.
07:38And you've got 4 left over.
07:39Fabulous.
07:45Perfect.
07:46Let's turn to our first tea time teaser,
07:49which is adult free.
07:50And the clue, the adult wanted a free ride in life
07:53and never paid any of his debts.
07:56The adult wanted a free ride in life
07:58and never paid any of his debts.
08:15Welcome back.
08:17I left with the clue.
08:17The adult wanted a free ride in life
08:19and never paid any of his debts
08:21because he was a defaulter.

12:42that one but 36 plays 22 now as we link over to Raj and Raj you've been in the antique
12:49business I get
12:50we started as a young chap but you've been in it seriously for a while now what have been one
12:56of the
12:56the most interesting or profitable perhaps uh lots you've seen I think not the most profitable but the
13:03most for me the the number one item that I've ever bought and sold was one of Lord Nelson's wills
13:10right which uh you know I didn't even think you could even buy that I thought they would all be
13:16in
13:16museums but uh one of them was privately owned and uh he came on the gentleman came on to
13:22four rooms and uh I was able to to buy it there
13:27so that's one of that's one of I think that stands out but I really like sporting things and
13:31Amit is going to love this he's going to love this because I actually own uh and again I bought
13:37it on
13:37one of the programs uh the old Spurs sign that used to hang outside their ground in White Hart Lane
13:42and there's this beautiful sign it's in Latin on one side with the shield and I've still got it
13:48because I'm a Tottenham fan as well so I've actually never let it go I'm going to but I
13:53so far my wife hasn't said you've got to get rid of it so that's something that's uh that's I
13:58really
13:58treasure but everything else I usually buy and sell I've also owned uh bought and sold um Muhammad
14:03Ali his boots but not his boxing boots which of which there were many pairs but his army boots right
14:10because he wasn't in the army very long as you know and uh his daughter they had actually come from
14:15his daughter and they were signed by him we had all the photographs as well because when you're
14:21buying some of these things provenance is very very important uh so you know but those are some
14:27of the interesting things but one of the shows that I do is Antiques Road Trip and of course Nick
14:32I believe you've been on the celebrity version of it uh and on the show recently we had a record
14:40absolutely smashed the previous record one of the experts Paul Laidlaw went into a shop in Kent
14:47and he found a camera and this camera was one of the first ever um miniature cameras and it was
14:57made
14:57in 1861 in France and he didn't know he didn't know it at the time but he had an inkling
15:03and he had a gut
15:05feeling for it and he paid 60 pounds for it and it went to auction and it sold for 20
15:12,000 pounds
15:1420,000 pounds so it's still out there these kind of things are actually still out there and still
15:20be found and this is this is fairly recently so keep looking that's extraordinary you've got to have
15:26a bit of an eye haven't you you've got to have a bit of soul about it do you think
15:30well I think any
15:31antiques expert you know you never know there's so much to learn I could live till I was a thousand
15:36years old Nick and learn something new every second of the day and I would still only know
15:41this much yeah the beauty of our job is you never stop learning but what you do get is you
15:46get an
15:46instinct for something you you know you all the signs are there that something is telling you that
15:52it's special and that's what you have to go on a lot of the time brilliant

19:00It would be a seven, but it's not there.
19:02Mardiest would be there, or Mardy on its own.
19:04But you can't have an attack of the Mardis yet, just the Mardy Blues, I'm afraid.
19:09Now, Raj, we've got a seven.

21:19Welcome back.
21:20I left with the clue.
21:21The ride was at its end, so naturally he got off.

22:42Now, what's this risk you're talking about, Mary?
22:44Thane.
22:45T-H-A-N-E.
22:48Thane is absolutely fine.
22:50In Anglia Saxon's term for a man who held land that was granted by the king.
22:54And is it neath?
22:56Yeah.
22:58Yeah, absolutely fine.
22:59Simply beneath, poetically.

24:19Mary. Six.
24:22Amid. Six.
24:24Now, Mary. Must.
24:26And Amid. Same word.
24:29Two Master and Rush.
24:31We've got Spasmed for seven.
24:33Oh, painful. Spasmed.
24:35Yeah. Susie?
24:36Spammed is there as well for seven.
24:39Spammed. Yeah. Too much of that going on these days.
24:41Yeah. Spammed and
24:43Spasmed. 69 to 49.
24:45Susie, what have
24:47you for us today?
24:49Well, I
24:50often talk about how English hoovers up
24:53words and expressions from almost every
24:55tongue it encounters, and it has done since
24:57it's very beginning.
24:58So it's estimated that 60% of the words that we
25:00use come from Greek or Latin.
25:02Only 10% of those directly, the others have
25:04come via French or other romance
25:07languages particularly.
25:09Germanic accounts for about 25%,
25:10if not more.
25:12French, when you take into account those
25:14Latin words, at least 25%,
25:16possibly even as much as 40%.
25:19So, so much of our language is made up
25:21of words that we take from other people.
25:23But we don't often talk about
25:25words from Tongan, and
25:26Tongan is a language spoken in Tonga
25:28in the South Pacific, and it's given us two
25:31words that we use very,
25:33very often.
25:34And they were both brought back to us by Captain Cook.
25:37And I'll begin with taboo.
25:39Taboo came over from
25:40the Polynesian Islands.
25:42It was introduced, as I say, into English by
25:44Captain James Cook in 1777, and he wrote these
25:48wonderful narratives of his voyages.
25:50And he wrote, not one of them, talking about the
25:53people he had met on his travels, not one of
25:56them would sit down or eat a bit of anything.
25:58It was all taboo.
26:00And he goes on to explain that the word was
26:02generally used to mean forbidden.
26:04The other one is tattoo.
26:07The tattoo on the skin.
26:09Again, that came into English from the Pacific
26:10Islands and was first recorded
26:12on board HMS Endeavour.
26:14But Cook wasn't the first one to use it
26:17because it has been found in the
26:18diaries of the naturalist and explorer
26:20Joseph Banks, who also wrote
26:22very, very detailed journals
26:24about their trip.
26:26And he recorded, I shall now mention the way
26:28they mark themselves indelibly.
26:30Each of them is so marked by their humour
26:32or disposition.
26:33In other words, their art was a reflection
26:35of their personality, just as we have
26:37tattoos today.
26:39Cook himself recorded the same word a little
26:41bit later.
26:42Both sexes paint their bodies to towel.
26:45It was spelt with a W at the end, as it is
26:47called in their language.
26:48This is done by inlaying the colour of black
26:50under their skins.
26:51As for its meaning, it comes from the Tongan
26:54word for to write, very simply.
26:56Not the same as the military tattoo.
26:58We'll just explain that one very briefly.
27:00And that's the drum or the bugle corps to recall
27:04soldiers to their quarters in the evening.
27:05That comes from Dutch, do den tap toe,
27:08which literally means close the tap.
27:10And it was an instruction to close the tap
27:13on the cask full of rum or beer or whatever
27:16the alcohol was at the time, because drinking
27:18time was over and it was time to go back
27:20to the quarters.
27:21So a very different tattoo.
27:22But the tattoos on our skin and to boo both
27:24go back to Tongan.
27:26Amazing.
27:27Amazing.
27:32I happened to find myself in a hat shop
27:34some years ago.
27:37And suddenly, it was extraordinary.
27:40We were plunged into darkness.
27:43Because the biggest man you've ever seen
27:46was in the doorway.
27:48Huge man.
27:49It was the king of Tonga.
27:50Oh, amazing.
27:50Yeah, he came in to buy a hat.
27:52I assume they found one that was bigger
27:54than that for his head.
27:5669 plays 49.

29:31Bad luck.
29:32What can we have, I wonder, Rush?
29:34Well, we've got Brassier as well.

30:54You're having much luck here, Amit.
30:55You can't, I'm afraid.
30:57I'm sorry.
30:58Who's being brave?
31:00He is, certainly.

31:11Nook and crannies we talk about.
31:13Something that's crannied, it has lots of little nooks.
31:15OK.
31:1983 to 49 into the final numbers round.
31:23Amit, can I have three from the top and three from the bottom, please?
31:27You can, indeed.
31:28Mix it up a bit.

31:46MUSIC CONTINUES
32:16No. Mary?
32:18That's too far away. 444.
32:20Over to Rachel.
32:22There were a few ways for this.
32:24You could have said 25 times 6 is 150.
32:28Divided by 50 is 3.
32:30And then 75 minus 3 is 72.
32:33And times it by the other 6.
32:35Oh, perfect.
32:37Wonderful.
32:40That's the way it's done.
32:4183 to 49 as we go into the final round.
