00:31Well, good afternoon, and welcome to the Countdown Studio.
00:34I'm told that everybody needs to be taught a lesson,
00:39and I've been given an example here.
00:41Apparently, the mum was at home, had kids, she had the house to look after,
00:44and her husband used to just lie on the sofa, and she got fed up.
00:48She was annoyed with him.
00:49So she said, now, look here.
00:51Take this list and get down to the shops,
00:53and for once in your life, do something helpful for the family.
00:56She gave him a shopping list containing a number of items,
01:02one of which was seedless strawberries,
01:05another one was diet diet Coke,
01:09and the other one was unsour cream,
01:12which I don't fully understand, actually.
01:14But then she turned her phone off and left him to the impossible task.
01:20Now, I don't go shopping, so this is...
01:23I'm confused about all this stuff here.
01:27Unsour...
01:27Can't you just have ordinary cream?
01:30The whole point of those things...
01:32Is it sour?
01:32...is that none of them exist.
01:33Can't you have cream?
01:35Or is that a sour...
01:37No, I don't know.
01:40Is it?
01:40I think that the whole point of the list is that none of those things exist.
01:43So you can't get diet diet Coke, you can only get diet Coke.
01:46You can't get unsour cream, you can only get sour cream.
01:49And what was the other one?
01:50Erm...
01:51Seedless strawberries.
01:52Seedless strawberries.
01:52Don't exist.
01:53I get that.
01:54I understand that one.
01:55I understand.
01:56Listen, it nearly reinforces the point
01:59that I'm keeping well away from those shops.
02:02The food shops.
02:03I'm not doing that.
02:05Who's here?
02:06We've got Corina Atwood, full-time mum from Ramsgate.
02:10Two good wins.
02:10How are you feeling?
02:12Still nervous.
02:13Yes?
02:13Yeah.
02:14You've spoken to little Oscar James.
02:16Not today, I haven't seen it.
02:18You haven't?
02:18First thing, no.
02:19Well, I'm watching you on television even as we speak.
02:21You're joined by Patrick Holland from Shrewsbury, now retired, but lived in Paris.
02:26You know all about Countdown French style.
02:30Yeah, I do, yes.
02:31Way back in the 80s.
02:32Yes.
02:32Countdown was originally a French conception, I think, back in the 70s or something.
02:39But I think Deschefers de Lettre has been running for more than 50 years now.
02:43We've been running since 82, so yeah.
02:45Could be, yeah, yeah.
02:46Way back in the 70s.
02:46It was definitely...
02:47It would have been around for a few years when I started watching it in 82.
02:50Brilliant.
02:52And it's still running.
02:53Anyway, and so are we, and we will continue to run for a long time's come.
02:57Hopefully.
02:57Good luck to you both, Patrick and Corina.
02:59Corina, big round of applause for our contestants.
03:07And over in the corner there, Susie, of course.
03:10And for the final time until we can chase him down again, none other than professional
03:14quizzer, Paul the Sinner Man Sinner.
03:17Welcome back.
03:23Right.

04:44Looked like there might be more there, but unfortunately hostelling only has two L's.
04:48It does in British English, yes.
04:49Which is unfortunate.
04:50So we've just got sevens here.
04:52Shingle.

06:21Tartar.
06:23Very good, both.
06:25And what about the corner there?
06:27Can you stick an E on the end of tartar?
06:29Tartar?
06:30Yes.
06:31Served raw, essentially.
06:32Fish or meat.
06:34Seasoned in shape, but essentially raw.
06:36Indeed.
06:36Thank you very much.
06:37Thirteen apiece.
06:38Karina, your numbers game.
06:41I'll take one large and five small, please, Rachel.
06:44Thank you, Karina.
06:44One from the top and five little ones coming up.
06:47And the first one of the day is...
06:50One, two, one, eight, four, and twenty-five.
06:55And the target, five hundred and ninety-three.
06:58Five, nine, three.
07:10One, two, one, eight, four, and twenty-five.
07:32Karina?
07:33Five, nine, five.
07:36And Patrick?
07:37I lost it.
07:38I'm sorry.
07:39Down to you, Karina.
07:41Okay.
07:41Two plus one.
07:42Two plus one is three.
07:44Times the eight.
07:45Times eight is twenty-four.
07:47Times the twenty-five.
07:48Times twenty-five is six hundred.
07:50And take away the four and the one.
07:52And take away the four and the other one.
07:54Two away.
07:55Very good.
07:56And Rachel will no doubt get us to five, nine, three.
07:59I've got a couple of ways, but there's a certain chaser again.
08:02He's glaring at me.
08:03And I'm always scared of the chases, so...
08:05Come on, man, chaser.
08:07Twenty-five times four is a hundred.
08:08Twenty-five times four, one hundred.
08:10Take away one.
08:11Ninety-nine.
08:12Eight take away two is six.
08:14It is.
08:15Multiply that is five, nine, four.
08:17Take away the last one.
08:18He's a pro.
08:19Five, nine, three.
08:20Well done.
08:24So, Corina on twenty, Patrick on thirteens, we turn to our first tea-time teaser, which
08:30is main place.
08:31And the clue.
08:32The main place to go is Pisa in Italy, if you want to visit this.
08:36The main place to go is Pisa in Italy, if you want to visit this.
08:56Welcome back.
08:56After the clue, the main place to go is Pisa in Italy, if you want to visit this.
09:01And the answer to that is if you want to visit the Campanile.
09:04Susie, give us a little definition of the Campanile.
09:08Well, it comes from the Italian Campana, meaning bell.
09:11We get Campanology, et cetera, from there.
09:13But Campanile is an Italian bell tower, especially a freestanding one.
09:16OK.
09:18Twenty place, thirteen.
09:20Corina on twenty.
09:21Patrick, your letters game.
09:23May I have a consonant, please?
09:26Thank you, Patrick.
09:27X.
09:28And another consonant.
09:30C.
09:31And a vowel.
09:32I.
09:34And a consonant.
09:36M.
09:38And a vowel.
09:40O.
09:41And a consonant.
09:42B.
09:44And a vowel.
09:47E.
09:48And another vowel.
09:51A.
09:52And a final consonant, please.
09:54And a final W.
09:56Stand by.
09:57All right.
10:27Yes, Patrick.
10:29A five.
10:30A five, how about?
10:32Also five.
10:34Two fives.
10:35Patrick.
10:36A coom, I think it's pronounced, C-O-M-B-E.
10:39And Corina.
10:41Cameo.
10:42And Cameo.
10:43Yes, both very good.
10:44You happy there, Susie?
10:45Yes, a coom is a short valley or hollow on a hillside, or cosign.
10:49And Paul, anything else?
10:52It's got biome and Bowie.
10:55Has she got a capital B?
10:56It doesn't.
10:57Actually.
10:57Interesting.
10:58It is an eponym, but it was made, I guess, lowercase quite a long time ago.
11:03A long knife with a blade that's double-edged.
11:05It was Jim Bowie at the Alamo, wasn't it?
11:08It was.
11:09If I remember correctly.
11:0925 plays, 18.
11:11Corina, it's your letters game.
11:13I'll start with Ponsonant, please, Rachel.

11:29U.
11:30And another.
11:31I.
11:33And a consonant.
11:34M.
11:35And a final consonant, please.
11:38And a final S.
11:40Stand by.
11:40M.
11:41M.
11:42And another.
11:50Make sure it's not.
11:51For now, we'll be able to enjoy.
11:51All right.
11:52Bye.
11:53Bye.
12:12Karina?
12:13A seven.

12:15Just a six.
12:16And your six is?
12:18Surfer.
12:19Surfer and?
12:20Murders.
12:23Yes.
12:24Very, very good.
12:25Yes, I've got murders as well.
12:27But there is an eight there, which is drum fire.
12:31You can't put the S on it, but it's heavy, continuous, rapid artillery fire.
12:35Drum fire.
12:37That's interesting.
12:42I've not heard of that before.
12:4432 to 18.
12:45Karina in the lead.
12:47Patrick?
12:47Patrick, it's your numbers game.
12:50Rachel, may I have one large and five small, please?
12:54You may do.
12:54Thank you, Patrick.
12:55One from the top again.
12:56And five small ones, which are four, eight, four, ten, one.
13:04And the large one, 50.
13:06And the target, 544.

13:52540 plus the other 4.
13:54Yeah, straightforward, this one.
13:55And, Carina, same way?
13:56No way.
13:57Go on.
13:5810 plus 1.
13:5911 times the 50.
14:01550.
14:028 divided by 4.
14:03Is 2.
14:04Plus the other 4.
14:05Is 6.
14:06Take them away.
14:07Lovely.
14:07Well done.
14:08Same result.
14:09Well done.
14:10Well done, Carina.
14:12Still in the lead, 42 to 28.
14:15We turn to Paul.
14:17Paul, what have you for us this afternoon?
14:19Fifth time out, and it's probably my biggest obsession when it comes to quiz,
14:23which is the Olympic Games.
14:25Oh.
14:25Which I'm delighted to say is very much in vogue these days,
14:27now that Team GB remember to be really good at it,
14:31and we get to celebrate gold medals all the time.
14:33And a lot of the weirdest facts about the Olympics are from the early days of the Olympics.
14:38For instance, in 1904, we had the biggest cheat in the history of the Olympic Games.
14:44We've all heard of contemporary cheats like Ben Johnson, but this guy really took the biscuit.
14:49His name was Fred Laws, and he competed in the marathon in the St. Louis Olympics in 1904,
14:55and he crossed the line first, and he took the acclaim, and he got photographed with relatives of Theodore Roosevelt,
15:02the President of the United States at the time, and then he got disqualified for a technicality.
15:07And that technicality was that he did miles 11 to 19 in a motor car.
15:13I mean, I think...
15:14I mean, I'm not a fit man, but I could win an Olympic marathon if I'm doing it in my
15:18Volkswagen Golf.
15:19I think it's fair to say.
15:20So he's probably the biggest cheat in Olympic history.
15:24And talking of Olympic cheats, do you know which was the last year that Team GB won an Olympic medal
15:29of any description?
15:32No.
15:33It's actually this year.
15:34This year is not an Olympic year, and yet this year, the British four-man bobsleigh team from the Sochi
15:40Winter Olympics in 2014 won a bronze medal.
15:44The reason being that back in 2014, they finished fifth, but two of the teams ahead of them have since
15:50been disqualified for drug taking.
15:52One of the teams was Russia.
15:55Do you know who the other team was?
15:58North Korea.
15:59Russia too.
16:01Russia actually had two of their teams disqualified, allowing Great Britain's bobsleigh team to jump from fifth to third.
16:08That's actually the fourth medal now that Britain have won, thanks to Russia.
16:12So I want to take this opportunity to say thank you, Russia, for all that you've done for the British
16:16Olympic programme.
16:17We absolutely value your help.
16:19You've been part of what makes Great Britain great.
16:22Thank you very much.
16:24Very bad.
16:28I'd be delighted to hear you saying that.
16:3142 plays 28.
16:33Corina, you're back on with the letters game.

23:49Karina. P. And another. G. And another. L. And another. R. And another. T.
24:01And a vowel. U. And another. I. And another. E. And a final vowel please. And a final O. Stand
24:16by.
24:47Karina. A seven. A seven Patrick. A risky seven. And Karina. Lautier. Patrick. Gautier.
25:01Ah. So Gautier's in. But Gautier and Gautier isn't. Aren't I should say. That's really
25:06really bad luck. I'm sorry Patrick. If it's any consolation I'm not sure Lautier will be in.
25:12It's not. So I have to disallow both I'm afraid. Thank you. Yeah. All right. And over in the
25:17corner what news? A couple of eights. A trilogue is conversation between three people as
25:23opposed to dialogue. And a grouplet is there as well. Small group particularly a social
25:27one. A grouplet. All right. If you must. If you must. Susie what have you got by way of
25:35your wonderful origins of words today? Well we had Campanile earlier the Italian bell tower
25:43and it might make you think of ringing the changes. If you ring the changes that actually
25:47looks back to bell ringing. And yes just the peeling of different bells. I'm going to talk
25:53more though about something having the ring of truth or ringing true and where that comes
25:58from. Nothing to do with church bells this time. Everything to do with money. And it goes
26:03back to the money manufacturers of the Middle Ages when monetary coins were made of semi-precious
26:10metals really. So gold and silver and slightly inferior ones but they were still of pretty
26:16good quality. And their value depended on the weight of metal they contained. Now in
26:22those days it was really hard to standardise things. So they didn't have equipment that
26:25would produce absolutely uniform coins and both in terms of weight and appearance. So criminals
26:32spied their opportunity really. And what they would do is they produce counterfeit coins
26:37by mixing small quantities of the semi-precious metals but with some other really inferior metals
26:43like nickel in there as well. But there was a test to see whether a ring was genuine or
26:49not because when dropped onto a stone slab pure precious metals have a really clear sonorous
26:55ring to them. Whereas if you drop a fake apparently you can very easily tell it's a sort of dull
27:00blunt deadened sound. And the two you can easily compare. So if someone wanted to test if a coin
27:07all they had to do was drop it and see if it rang true.
27:10That's very interesting.
27:12Very good.
27:17I like that. Yeah.
27:1955 to 41.

34:01So it's been, you know, you've taken a lot of weight off Rachel's shoulders.
