00:31Well, good afternoon. Welcome to Countdown Studio.
00:34The point is, rules is rules.
00:37And if you break them, there's no good getting long-faced about it, Rachel.
00:40For instance, what about this Dominican singer?
00:43He had a ripe mardi, I think the expression is.
00:46He was going for a world record on the longest singing marathon.
00:51Basically, he stands there and he pumps out 5,000 songs.
00:54Well, it took him 106.7 hours.
00:57He must have had a lozenge or two during that, I would have thought.
01:01But anyway, he beat the previous record of 105 hours.
01:05And then he's feeling terrific.
01:07And then the judges say you're disqualified.
01:10He says, what are you talking about?
01:11They said, no, I'm sorry.
01:13Because you took longer than the allowed 30 seconds between songs.
01:19And he threw a wobbly.
01:20And frankly, I don't understand it.
01:24For 106 hours.
01:25I mean, to be quite honest with you, you know, Countdown, one game, and my voice is gone.
01:31I take an extract of time, which is actually terrifically good for the throat.
01:36Unfortunately, it is also a world-class laxative.
01:40So, there's a drawback wherever you look.
01:44Yes, and that's why we only see you from the waist up.
01:49Who's here?
01:53Stephen Mello's here after two good wins.
01:55Well done, Stephen.
01:57Yeah, A-level student from Yorkshire.
01:58Very good.
01:59Got your teapot, but don't relax.
02:01I won't.
02:02No.
02:03You're joined by David Nixon.
02:04Retired from the building trade.
02:06Comes from Romsey in Hampshire.
02:07That lovely part of the world.
02:09Lovely part of the world.
02:10But you're a runner, too.
02:11Yes.
02:12You belong to the Romsey Road Runners.
02:15And you're into an orienteering club with the Southampton Orienteering Club.
02:19That's right.
02:20Now, what's that all about?
02:22It's navigating with a map and compass around the countryside.
02:26Okay.
02:27Running, ideally.
02:28Running.
02:28So, you can go around the paths.
02:30You can go straight through the forest.
02:32Excellent.
02:32If there's a hill, you might be able to go around it or up and over it.
02:36Well, you're going to have to find your way through Countdown, which is also quite complicated.
02:39Let's have a big round of applause for Stephen and David.
02:47Stephen and David, indeed.
02:49And over in the corner there, we've got Susie.
02:52And until we can get him back, comedian, writer, good guy, Charlie Higgs.
02:57And welcome back.
02:58Welcome back, Charlie.
03:02All right, let's get down to business.
03:05Stephen, off we go.
03:06Hi, Rachel.
03:07Hi, Stephen.
03:07Can I start the day with a consonant, please?
03:11Start today with D.
03:11A vowel.
03:13A vowel.
03:15Consonant.
03:16N.
03:18Another.
03:19P.
03:21Vowel.
03:23O.
03:24Another.
03:26A.
03:27A consonant.
03:29T.
03:30Another.
03:32N.
03:33And a final vowel, please.
03:35And a final U.
03:38And here's the Countdown Clock.
03:52Music.
04:11Well, Stephen?
04:12Six.
04:13Six. David?
04:14Six.
04:16And Stephen, six?
04:17Pundit.
04:18Yes, David.
04:20Unpaid.
04:21And unpaid.
04:23Yes, both nice.
04:24Charlie and Susie?
04:26A really horrible word, unpaint, is there for seven.
04:31In the old sense of to obliterate the painting or simply remove the paint from it.
04:34But a much nicer one is utopian.
04:37Yeah, very good.
04:38OK, six apiece.
04:40Good start there, David.
04:41It's your letters game now.
04:43Good afternoon, Rachel.
04:44Good afternoon, David.
04:45I'd like to start with a consonant, please.
04:48Start with F.
04:49Another consonant.
04:51W.
04:52A vowel.
04:55I.
04:57I'll have another consonant.
05:01D.
05:02Sorry, D.
05:04Yeah, right.
05:05I'll have another vowel.
05:07O.
05:09Ooh.
05:10Another consonant.
05:12S.
05:14Um, um, a vowel, please.
05:19E.
05:21And a final consonant.
05:24C.
05:27Oh, that's on the eight, isn't it?
05:29Yeah, you've got another one.
05:30Free B.
05:30Another vowel, please.
05:32Sorry.
05:32Thank you, David.
05:33A.
05:34Stand by.
05:35Call 538.
05:35Bye.

06:06Yes, David?
06:08Five.
06:09A five and?
06:10Six.
06:11And a six for Steve and David.
06:13Wide.
06:15Yes.
06:16Fiasco.
06:18And fiasco.
06:19Fiasco, very, very good.
06:22Yes.
06:22Wide's also fine.
06:23Turn from cricket.
06:24Board judge to be too wide.
06:26Exactly.
06:26Yeah.
06:27What about the corner there?
06:28Charlie?
06:28Can't do any better than that.
06:30I just had a five, soad.
06:32Suzy?
06:33Fiasco is the only one that we had as well.
06:35That's it?
06:36Yeah.
06:36All right.
06:36Let's go for a numbers game.
06:38Stephen?
06:39Could I have six more, please, Rachel?
06:41You can, indeed.
06:42Your favourite.
06:42Thank you, Stephen.
06:43Six little ones.
06:44And for the first time today, the numbers are one, five, three, six, seven, and two.
06:53Quite small.
06:54And target, 950.
06:56Nine, five, zero.
07:31Nine, four, five, I think.
07:32But not written down.
07:34Five away, David.
07:35Nothing, I'm afraid.
07:37No, we'll stick with Stephen, then.
07:39Yes, Stephen?
07:40I did six plus two plus one.
07:42Six plus two plus one is nine.
07:44Multiply by the three.
07:46Multiply by three, 27.
07:48And multiply by the seven.
07:50Multiply by the seven for 189.
07:53And then multiply by five.
07:55And multiply by...
07:57Yeah, five, four, nine, four, five.
08:01Well done.
08:02So, nine, four, five.
08:03But what about 950, Rachel?
08:05Well, 950 is actually impossible.
08:06This is the best you could have done.
08:08So, very well done, Stephen.
08:09Yeah, well done, Stephen.
08:10All right.
08:1019 plays six.
08:12As we turn to our first Tea Time teaser, which is Tool Bangs.
08:16And the clue.
08:16Sailing in these might drive you bananas.
08:19Sailing in these might drive you bananas.
08:39Welcome back.
08:40I left with the clue.
08:41Sailing in these might drive you bananas.
08:44And the answer to that is longboats.
08:46Sailing in longboats could drive you bananas.
08:50David, your letters came.
08:53I'll start with a consonant, please, Rachel.
08:57Thank you, David.
08:58R.
08:59Another consonant.

09:34And finish with A.
09:37Stand by.

10:13Also a seven.
10:14David?
10:15Version.
10:17Stephen?
10:18Ravines.
10:19And ravines.
10:20Very nice.
10:21And Charlie and Susie?
10:23There is a nine there, Nick.
10:25Yes, it's overstain.
10:27And it is a term from histology, which is the analysis of tissue samples,
10:31where the tissue is deliberately stained to excess,
10:34so that when you remove the stain, you can differentiate certain elements within it.
10:39I understand.
10:39Very good.
10:43Let's hope it's never necessary.
10:45I don't like the sound of that very much.
10:4726, base 13.
10:49Stephen, let us go.
10:51Could I have a consonant, please?
10:53Thank you, Stephen.

11:23Stand by.
11:42And a final vowel, please.

11:58An eight?
11:59I got an eight, but not written down.
12:01Let's hear yours first, David.
12:03Brigades.
12:05Very good.
12:06Now, yes?
12:07Brigades as well.
12:08Brigades.
12:10Yep.
12:10And over in the corner.
12:12Susie managed to make a longer word.
12:13I had bridges, and you made abridges.
12:16Yeah, I'll give you another eight.
12:18Very good.
12:18Well done.
12:19APPLAUSE
12:22She always likes to give you that little bit extra, Susie.
12:26It's in her nature, you know.
12:2834 plays, 21.
12:29David, your numbers game.
12:31All right, thank you.
12:32And two large numbers and four small ones, please, Rachel.
12:37Thank you, David.
12:37Two from the top and four little ones.
12:39And this time the small ones are three, three, ten and five.
12:45And the large two, 75 and 100.
12:48And the target, 927.
12:50927.
12:52927.
12:54927.
13:06927.
13:24Well, David?
13:25Um, 927.
13:28Well done.
13:29923, not written down.
13:31923, right.
13:33Take it away, David.
13:34And 100 times, um, 10.
13:381,000.
13:39Is 1,000.
13:41Take away the 75.
13:43925.
13:44925.
13:465 minus 3 is 2.
13:48Yeah.
13:49And add it on.
13:50Perfect, 97.
13:51Well done.
13:52Well done, well done.
13:56Well done, David.
13:5834 now to your 31.
14:01I come back very, very strongly
14:03as we turn to Charlie.
14:04The Fast Show.
14:06What a triumph that was.
14:07It was so popular.
14:08It was so good.
14:09And then, so good, in fact,
14:11you started bringing in, you know,
14:13Hollywood stars.
14:14We did manage to get Johnny Depp
14:17onto The Fast Show,
14:18which was quite exciting.
14:20He'd got to know the show.
14:21He's a big anglophile,
14:22and he hangs out with a lot of rock musicians.
14:25And it was the kind of show
14:26that bands would watch on the tour bus
14:28and in the hotels.
14:29And he said, yeah, yeah, yeah,
14:30I really want to come and do the show.
14:32So we wrote a sketch.
14:34We had the characters that suit you tailors.
14:37Basically, very simple sketches.
14:39Somebody would turn up in their shop
14:41and they'd abuse them for about three minutes.
14:43So we thought, well,
14:44that would be fun with Johnny Depp.
14:47And he said, yeah, I can do it.
14:49We were recording a new series.
14:51He says, yeah, yeah,
14:51I could actually do it on this one day.
14:54He was filming two films at once.
14:56He was flying into England
14:58to get some prosthetic fingernails fitted,
15:01as you do when you're in Hollywood.
15:03But he said, yeah,
15:04I could come to you from the airport
15:06and we'd film the sketch in the afternoon.
15:08But it'd be nice and interesting.
15:10Everybody wants to be a celebrity.
15:11They think they're going to have
15:12this great glamorous lifestyle.
15:14But, you know, your life is not your own.
15:17He had this one little gap in the day.
15:18And we did.
15:19Robbie Williams also turned out to be a fan
15:21right at the height of his fame.
15:23Yeah.
15:25And we were set up to do
15:27a comic relief sketch with him.
15:30But we had to film it like 10 months in advance.
15:33So when he turned up on the day,
15:34we were filming on location at Hampton Court.
15:36We said to him,
15:37why are we having to do this 10 months in advance?
15:40And he said, well,
15:41I could show you my diary for the next two years
15:43and I could show you what I'm doing
15:45on every hour of every day at that time.
15:48This is the only time I could do it.
15:50I kind of thought, you know what?
15:51I don't really want to be this famous
15:53if this is what your life turns out like.
15:56Absolutely.
15:56You know, there's a terrific saying,
15:59I think it was John Updike,
16:00who said,
16:01celebrity's a mask that eats your face.
16:04When you take it off, there's nothing there.
16:06Yeah.
16:06It's all gone.
16:07God, I'm going to burst into tears now.
16:09Do you want to cry with me?
16:12Thank you, Charlie.
16:18Thank you, Charlie.
16:20Now,
16:22it's a close run thing here,
16:23you know,
16:2334 plays 31.
16:25Stephen,
16:26what are you going to do about it?

17:45Mm-hmm.
17:46And what's Charlie got for us?
17:47Charlie and Susie?
17:49I've just noticed you've got a fantastic word there.
17:52Yes.
17:52Do you know it?
17:53I do, yes.
17:54It's one of these modern types of music that only young people know about.
17:59What do they call it?
18:00Reggaeton.
18:02Oh, really?
18:03And I think it's actually got nothing to do with reggae.
18:06Yeah, not really.
18:07You're right.
18:08Porto Bican origin, fusion of Latin rhythms, dancehall and hip-hop or rap.
18:14Brilliant.
18:16Reggaeton.
18:19And it's a nine.
18:21Racking word there.
18:22Well done.
18:2340 plays, 37, three points in it.

19:51Yeah.
19:52Excellent.
19:54Now, Charlie and Susie?
19:56A couple more sevens for you.
19:58Nourish is there and inshore, as in going away from the sea.
20:0347 to 44.
20:04Stephen, your numbers game.
20:06Now, make the most of this one.
20:08Can I have six more, please, Rachel?
20:10You can indeed.
20:11Your usual now, Stephen.
20:12Six little ones coming up for you and for this round.
20:15They are six, ten, six, ten, two, and two.
20:21All the evens and the target.
20:24Of course it is.
20:25155.
20:26155.
20:28We will be there and we'll be there and we'll see you next time.
20:57Well, Stephen.
20:591, 5, 5.
21:001, 5, 5.
21:01David?
21:01Yeah, 1, 5, 5.
21:02Well done.
21:03Stephen?
21:0410 plus 6.
21:0610 plus 6, 16.
21:08Multiply by the 10.
21:09By the other 10, 160.
21:11Subtract the 6.
21:12Minus 6, 154.
21:14And then 2 divided by 2 for the extra 1.
21:17Well done.
21:18Well done indeed.
21:19David?
21:21Slightly different.
21:23And 10 plus 6 is 16 times 10 is 160.
21:28Yep.
21:296 over 2 is 3.
21:31Yep.
21:31Plus 2 is 5.
21:33And take it off.
21:34Well done.
21:35Perfect.
21:36Well done.
21:40And now it's time for our second tea time teaser, which is Crane Club.
21:45And the clue, your relative loves his potatoes.
21:48They really hit the spot.
21:50Your relative loves his potatoes.
21:53They really hit the spot.
22:10Welcome back.
22:11I left you with the clue, your relative loves his potatoes.
22:15They really hit the spot.
22:16And the answer to that is carbuncle.
22:21Carbuncle.
22:22So 57 to 54.

25:24A vowel.
25:27Stephen. I'll try a seven. A seven, David? Six. You're six. And modish. Modish, yeah. Now, Stephen. Mikados? Yes, the
25:39Japanese
25:40emperors. Very good. Well done. Well done. You're back in the lead, Stephen. Sixty-four to sixty-one. Susie, let's
25:48rest them for a
25:49moment. Fighting away here. What have you for us by way of your origins of words? More on the theme
25:57that I often come to you because I really love it. It's words that wear their hearts on their sleeve,
26:01but we just pass them by because we don't quite recognise the obviousness of it. And I'm going to start
26:08with the Beefeater. The Beefeaters that you will find at the Tower of London. A really curious nickname, if you
26:13like. Actually, more than a nickname. They use it themselves, really. But it does have everything
26:19to do with eating beef. And we know that the French still call us occasionally les roast beef because we
26:27were well known for the roast beef that we ate. But how did that work with the Beefeaters? Well, it
26:31first came about as a reference by Cosimo III de Medici. He was the Grand Duke of Custody who came
26:38to the royal household in 1669. And he referred to the Yeomen of the Guard in those days. And he
26:44said a very large ration of beef is given to them daily at the court and they might be called
26:48Beef Eaters. And for a long time, actually, it was an insult for a well-fed servant. They were fed
26:54proper beef whilst the lowlier members of the household would be fed
26:58the off cuts, if you like. But anyway, the crucial thing is they really did eat beef very often. Offal
27:06is a combination of off and fall, very obvious, because it's the refuse or rubbish that's left after the best
27:12cuts of meat
27:14have been taken. So they let it fall off because it was worthless. And while cupboards were boards or tables
27:19for cups, a sideboard was a dining table and it would be placed at the side of a room or
27:25to the side of the main table, if you like, because again, it was for the people who were considered
27:28to be of less importance. So they were put to the side. The sideboard was where they ate. Put to
27:34the side for a reason.
27:34Well, that's wonderful. Very good. As you say, it all becomes very clear, doesn't it? Obviously. Wonderful. 64 to 61.
27:48David, your letters again.
27:51Consonant, please. Thank you, David. S. Consonant. R. Vowel. A. Vowel. U.
28:04Vowel. O. Vowel. I. Consonant. L. Consonant. T. And consonant to finish. And lastly, another L.

29:04Outsale. Outsale and?
29:06Taylors. Thank you.
29:09Very good. Now, Charlie and Susie.
29:12No, I only had a six with atolls.
29:16Yeah. I thought it was a nice word, though.
29:18It is, isn't it? Balmy seas and things.
29:21Blue Lagoon.
29:2268 to 71. Stephen on 71. And now, Stephen, it's your letters game.

30:36David.
30:37Wetton.
30:39Well, I thought Wetton sounded completely plausible,
30:42but I've just checked it and it's not in, David.
30:44I'm really sorry.
30:45Sorry.
30:46To Wetton something?
30:47Yes.
30:49I guess you just Wett something, don't you?
30:51Yes, you do.
30:52How saddening, David.
30:55All right, 77 to 68 into the final numbers game.
31:00David.
31:02Four small numbers, two big numbers, please, Rachel.
31:05Thank you, David, and hopefully a crucial conundrum on the way.
31:08Let's see.
31:08Final numbers of the day are one, eight, five, two,
31:13and a large two, 50, and 100.

31:54Yes, Stephen.
31:56492.
31:56That's not to spend too long on this, David.
31:58All right, I'll do it the pity way.
32:00Eight times 50 is 400.
32:02Eight times 50 is 400.
32:05Add the 100.
32:06500.
32:07Take away the five, the two, and the one.
32:08Yeah, no extra points for using all the numbers, but well done.
32:11Well done.
32:11And, Stephen?
32:13I just did five times 100 minus eight.
32:15Yeah.
32:15OK.
32:16Same as me.
32:17So there we are.
32:18Where are we, in fact?
32:1978 plays 87, which means that we go into the final round.
32:24Two great players.
32:25We're going into a crucial countdown conundrum.
32:29Fingers on buzzers.
32:30Let's roll that crucial countdown conundrum.
33:05Chukku players are fucked.
33:07Two in the audience.
33:08Yes, you, sir.
33:08In the front row.

33:17Well done.
33:21Well done.
33:24Well done.
33:25And well done, Stephen.
33:27Gave you a bit of a fright, didn't it, actually, our David?
33:29But you came through 87 to David's very strong 78.
33:35You were pretty much there.
33:36Yes.
33:36Pretty much there.
33:37Thank you very much for coming.
33:39It's all right.
33:40And you take this goodie bag back to Romsey, you lucky man.
33:43And good luck with the orienteering and the running.
33:46Well done.
33:47Well done, Stephen.

33:56No, no.
33:57You will come back, won't you?
34:00Well, I'd love to, but I think if I do, I'm going to take a tip from Susie and I'm
34:03going
34:03to bring my laptop.
34:07All right.
34:08But do come again.
34:08It's been a real pleasure having you here.
34:10It's been fun.
34:11We've enjoyed it very much.
34:12And some lovely contestants as well.
34:13Lovely.
34:14All right.
34:15And Susie, see you tomorrow.
34:17Yeah.
34:17See you tomorrow.
34:18And tomorrow we have?
34:19We have Dr. Linda Papadopoulos in tomorrow.
