00:30Hello, everybody. It's Monday the 20th of April and we are up and running with another week of Countdown.
00:37So let's not have any delays. Let's not have any false starts and just fire the starting pistol and get
00:43a guardian of the dictionary, Susie Dent, reintroduced.
00:47And look who's making his Dictionary Corner debut all this week.
00:51He is a Paralympic, a marathon running legend. For me, one of the greatest to walk the planet, Richard Whitehead.
01:00It's great to be here. Thank you, Colin.
01:02And he could get over to Rich O'Reilly in about 0.3 seconds in front of that board.
01:08Yes, it's London Marathon Week this week, of course, so we'll give that a big shout out.
01:13And we love to impress our new guests, don't we? So let's just do our athletic credentials here.
01:18I don't actually know. Let's go back. Rachel, what about you? Back in the day?
01:24I mean, I was jumping at 70 metres, 75 metres, push it up to 100 if I had to. I
01:31was a hurdler. I wasn't long distance.
01:32I think I would call, you know, 400 plus long distance for me.
01:36What about you, Susie? Would you take to the pavements a little 1k, 2k, anything, or more a walker?
01:42Yeah, I love walking. I know you love walking. I have walked the Great North Run and we did it
01:48in memory of Richard Whitehead.
01:49And we said we were walking for whiters and kind of skipped the running for Richard part.
01:53So we walked it. But I love walking. Fast walking, yeah, is brilliant, but I'm not a runner.
01:59I like sprinting too, but 75 metres and then that was it.
02:03Yes, the white lane and the walking just worked out for you there, didn't it? Thank goodness.
02:07What advice would you give then, Richard, to somebody like me who used to run and I kind of fear
02:14getting back into it,
02:15there's somebody who thinks, I just can't do 5k. Where do you start?
02:20I've noticed that we've skipped your sporting credentials there, Colin, which was quite timely.
02:27But for me, it's all about enjoying the process and one foot in front of the other and goal set
02:35as well,
02:36which is so important.
02:37And also understanding that everybody has a starting position and it is quite tough.
02:43But for me, it's about kind of really embracing the process and then thinking this is going to actually improve
02:48my life
02:49and hopefully support other people that are going through those challenging moments as well.
02:53Yeah, a little bit of belief. Hopefully that'll inspire a few people.
02:55For sure, yeah.
02:56Yeah, maybe I'll pick up that pace from walking to running. Susie won't.
03:00She won't.
03:01Well, Richard, our two challengers today, because of course Ian Kinsola became an octo-champ on Friday,
03:07brilliant octo-champ, have different kind of obsessions.
03:11Ken Wears joins us from Birkenhead. Hello, Ken.
03:13Hello.
03:14And fishing, has your game been doing it for decades?
03:17Since I was eight years old.
03:20Absolutely fantastic stuff.
03:21All weather fishermen, are you out all the time doing it or just when the sun's out?
03:26Just when the sun's out, Colin.
03:28Well, listen, the weather's sort of in between, isn't it, at the moment, so it's nice to be indoors with
03:32us.
03:33Well, Ken, you're hoping to have our other challenger on the hook today, which is Ian Innes, who joins us
03:38from Aberdeen.
03:39And again, a bit of a sort of lovely, leisurely obsession. You love your lawn bowls.
03:45Very leisurely, yeah.
03:47Aside from the sport, the community's brilliant.
03:49It's very friendly. And I mean, I play indoor bowls as well.
03:53And there are people that are in their 90s and they're still excellent bowlers.
03:59So it's a game you can keep going at for many, many years.
04:02Lovely. Well, let's do it then. We don't have ends, we just have rounds.
04:05But good luck to Ian and to Ken.
04:08APPLAUSE
04:09Let's try and get a big word on the hook straight away.
04:12Your letters, Ken.
04:13Hello, Rachel.
04:14Hi, Ken.
04:14I'll have a consonant, please.
04:16Great. Start the week with B.
04:19Another consonant, please.
04:21R
04:21A vowel
04:23E
04:26A consonant
04:28N
04:32A consonant
04:33R
04:35A vowel, please.
04:37I
04:40A consonant
04:46And a final E
04:54All right, at home and in the studio, let's play Countdown.
05:28Ken, how many?
05:29Seven.
05:30And for you, Ian?
05:31I also have a seven.
05:33Let's see if it's that same word, Ken.
05:35Bringer.
05:36Bringer, yes.
05:36And for you, Ian?
05:38It is Bringer.
05:39Yeah.
05:40It certainly is.
05:41So, Richard, Bringer jumped out.
05:43Is that all we have?
05:44Yeah, straight away, yeah.
05:45It sprung out to us all, I think.
05:46Yeah, and that was it.
05:47Yeah, there you go.
05:48Well, I like that with two challengers and a Dictionary Corner debutante.
05:52A nice straightforward start to the week.
05:55Enjoy them while you can.
05:56Let's see what happens this time.
05:57Ian.
05:57Hi, Rachel.
05:58Hi, Ian.
05:59Could I have a consonant, please?
06:01You can indeed.
06:02S
06:03And a vowel.
06:05I
06:06And another consonant.
06:08D
06:09And another vowel.
06:11A
06:12And a consonant.
06:14C
06:15And a vowel.
06:19E
06:19And a consonant.
06:22W
06:23And a vowel.
06:26A
06:27And a final consonant.
06:30A final S.
06:33And let's do it.
06:34MUSIC PLAYS
07:05And that's time, Ian.
07:06I have a six.
07:07A six there.
07:08And Ken?
07:09Five.
07:09And a five.
07:10What's the five, Ken?
07:12Wides.
07:13And for you, Ian?
07:14A sides.
07:15A sides.
07:16Excellent.
07:17Very good to spot that.
07:18And wides absolutely fine in cricket.
07:20Wide balls.
07:21But obviously a sides takes it.
07:22Well done.
07:23Absolutely.
07:23There you go.
07:24Any other sides for me, Richard?
07:25No.
07:26No.
07:27And that's it.
07:28Straightforward again.
07:28Yeah, we're just matching again.
07:30Lovely.
07:30Good stuff.
07:31Well done, both of yous.
07:32As we get our first numbers of the day,
07:34well, our outgoing OctoChamp
07:37furnished us with one large every time,
07:39so it's a new beginning today.
07:41What are you going to do, Ken?
07:42One large, please.
07:43Another one large.
07:45Popular choice.
07:46First one of the week is
07:48three, four, five, one, eight.
07:52And the large one, 50.
07:54And the target to reach with them, 267.
07:57Two six seven.
07:58Numbers up.
07:58No block.
07:59No block.
08:02And the fucking thing.
08:08Now.
08:15No block.
08:18Oh.
08:20No block.
08:21All I see will be there.
08:23Bye.
08:24Bye.
08:26Bye.
08:29OK, 2, 6, 7. Ken?
08:32Nope, nothing. Mr Ian?
08:34I've got 2, 6, 6. 2, 6, 6 for seven points. Off you go.
08:3850 times 5.
08:4050 times 5, 250.
08:43And then plus the other numbers, 8, 3, 4 and 1.
08:49One away. 2, 6, 6.
08:51Nice. Not even after a weekend off. Well, let's bother, Rachel. Off you go.
08:55No, there were a few ways but before you times the 50 by 5,
08:58add something to it.
08:59You can add the 4 and times it by 5 for 270
09:03and then take away 3 to get your spot on.
09:06Nice.
09:08Right, our first tea time teaser of the week.
09:11When you hear the clue you'd think,
09:12oh, Ken the fisherman should be able to get this
09:14but actually it's Ian from Aberdeen who should be able to get this.
09:18Gravitas. Gravitas.
09:20Roam all over the place like John's famous fish.
09:23Roam all over the place like John's famous fish.
09:42Welcome back, everybody.
09:44This is going to be embarrassing for me in front of Ian Ennis.
09:47So I think the Scottish word stravag, stravag, stravag...
09:51Stravag.
09:52Stravag.
09:52Stravag, yes.
09:53Excellent stuff.
09:54Susie, tell us all about it.
09:56Yeah.
09:56It's another one for our lexicon of pootling
09:58because it means to wander about aimlessly.
10:00Yeah.
10:01And I love this.
10:02There's John Cleese, isn't it?
10:03A fish called Wanda.
10:04Oh, John's famous fish.
10:05There you go.
10:06Alright, let's get back to the game.
10:08It's two challengers today, remember,
10:10and it's way too early to start telling a story.
10:12Let's just get more letters.
10:14And it's Ian.
10:15Again, we'll have a consonant.
10:18Thank you, Ian.

11:34Both very good indeed.
11:36We've got some eights here.
11:37Oh, come on, Richard.
11:39My greats.
11:40There's a magister, which is a form of address to a scholar,
11:44particularly in medieval times, and also vergates,
11:47which was a measurement of land.
11:48Excellent. There you go. Three eights in there,
11:50but Ken and Ian, very happy with our sevens.
11:53And, Ken, you're going to pick these letters.

12:58MUSIC PLAYS
13:03Ken. Eight. Ian. Just a seven.
13:07What's the seven, Ian? Fondest.
13:09Fondest, and you're fond of this eight. What is it?
13:12Softened.
13:13I've only got one E, unfortunately, Ken. I'm so sorry.
13:17Easy done. Yes.
13:18Easy done, especially with two challengers. Absolutely.
13:21So fondest, which I'm sure Ken would have had as well,
13:24kind of jumped out. That's a seven.
13:26Was there an eight missed? No.
13:28We could see. No.
13:29One good one for me was a foodie.
13:31As an athlete, you need to be on your nutrition,
13:34so foodies are seven as well.
13:36All right, let's switch back to the number safe.
13:38If we can give Rachel a challenge. Ian, you're picking.
13:41I'm going to try three large.
13:43Three large. They're lesser picked.
13:46Often tricky. Let's find out.
13:48Small one's two, five, nine.
13:51And the big one's 25, 75 and 100.
13:55And the target, 887.
13:58Eight, eight, seven. Numbers up.
14:00One, nine.
14:15Two, five, nine.
14:20One, nine.
14:20Yeah, we're in there.
14:20Two, five.
14:20Three, nine.
14:22Three, nine.
14:26One, nine.
14:28Two, five.
14:28Two, four.
14:28One, eight.
14:28Seven, eight.
14:29Two, five, five.
14:308-8-7, with three large. Ian?
14:348-8-7.
14:35And for you, Ken?
14:368-8-6.
14:37Ian, you just missed it by one, so a big ten points, isn't it?
14:40Ian, off you go.
14:41I think 100 minus two.
14:4398.
14:44Times nine.
14:458-8-2.
14:47And add the five.
14:48Ten points. Perfect. 8-8-7.
14:50APPLAUSE
14:52All right, 14 plays 44, 30 points in it.
14:55A long way to go as we have our first chat of the week with Richard Whitehead.
15:00And I think, like, because we're going to talk a lot of marathons this week.
15:04A lot of people that maybe don't watch marathons
15:07and they're into their Olympics and Paralympics,
15:09they're going, well, hold on a second.
15:10I've watched them do amazing things.
15:12You know, I think your first world title was 2011,
15:15but it was over 200 metres, over 100 metres.
15:18So, like, the shortest distances, you were the best in the world.
15:21And then you broke world records quite quickly in marathons as well.
15:26You were such a glutton for punishment.
15:28When was the first marathon then?
15:30Where did that obsession begin?
15:32So, I started my marathon journey in 2004.
15:34Wow.
15:35And, um, obviously, I've got a disability that's very visible.
15:39And I always wanted to run.
15:42And Terry Fox, the Canadian athlete,
15:45really did inspire me to start my running journey.
15:47Everybody says the first, the first port of call,
15:51the first step is the hardest.
15:53And for me, it was just the opportunity being available.
15:57And so I went to New York in that small race in New York City,
16:02the New York City Marathon, where, at the time,
16:0440,000 people and me were taking on that challenge
16:08of running a marathon 26.2 miles.
16:12At that point, I hadn't run a race before that point.
16:17I'd actually trained, but I'd not run a race.
16:20Wow.
16:20And, uh, so it was in the unknown.
16:24Obviously, now that I've run quite a few, I'm obviously...
16:28Quite a few.
16:28Yeah, I'm obviously very prepared and obviously very focused
16:31and obviously understand the dedication that you do need
16:35to obviously run that marathon.
16:37Yeah.
16:38And I continually think that even at my age now, 49,
16:42I can still improve.
16:43That's amazing. That's amazing.
16:45So, hence the reason why, when you say you can't run a marathon,
16:47Colin, I believe that you can.
16:50That's all I needed.
16:52That's so I can run through a wall right now.
16:56Richard, my head, thank you very much.
16:57Thank you very much.
17:00Now, let's get back to the teapot.
17:02A countdown fan worth as much as any gold medal.
17:05And it's still up for grabs. Ken, believe.
17:08Let's get more letters from you.
17:09Consonant, please, Rachel.
17:11Thank you, Ken.

18:20And for you, Ian?
18:21Also five.
18:22What's your five, Ken?
18:23Makes.
18:24Makes.
18:24And for you, Ian?
18:26Amuse.
18:26Amuse.
18:27Yes, we're not amused at this round, Susie and Richard,
18:30because it promised so much more.
18:32So what can you deliver?
18:33Yeah, so we had...
18:34Well, I had Geisha's six, and you had a great seven.
18:38Meshuggah.
18:39Meshuggah?
18:40Yes, M-E-S-H-U-G-A.
18:41It means really foolish or irrational.
18:44Yes.
18:44Yeah, straight from Yiddish.
18:46And also, Susie's pet name for me off-air is Meshuggah.
18:50So it means a lot to us.
18:52It's an easy one, it does.
18:53Yes, it does.
18:53It might not mean much to people, but to us it means a lot.
18:57More letters, please, Ian?
18:59Yes, I'll have a consonant, please.
19:00Thank you, Ian.

20:11And eloping.
20:12Nice.
20:13Come on, Richard.
20:13We've got pleasing and...
20:15Spoilage.
20:16Spoilage, which is never pleasing,
20:18but we're going to enjoy these numbers.
20:20And Ken gets to choose once more.
20:22One large, please, Rachel.
20:24Back to the one from the top and five little ones coming up here, Ken.
20:28And these small numbers, seven, four, two, three and six.
20:34And the big one, 100.
20:36And you need to find 859.
20:39859.
20:40Numbers up.
21:13Big target, Ken.
21:15859.
21:15And how did you get on, Ian?
21:17858.
21:18Yeah, and for you, Ken, then off you go for a big ten points.
21:20Yes.
21:21Two times four is eight.
21:23Yes.
21:24100 plus seven.
21:26Yep.
21:26Times the eight.
21:28856.
21:29And add the three.
21:30Perfect. 859.
21:31Well done.
21:32Nice.
21:32APPLAUSE
21:35All right, that big ten points.
21:36That means we're back within 20 with six rounds to go
21:39with our two challengers.
21:40As we get this tea time teaser, which is Once Moms.
21:43Once Moms.
21:44Spelled M-O-M-S.
21:46It'll be all clear once Moms tasted this soup.
21:49It'll be all clear once Moms tasted this soup.
21:52MUSIC
22:00APPLAUSE
22:07Well, welcome back, everyone.
22:08The tea time teaser was consomme.
22:10Quite simple here, isn't it?
22:12It's like posh broth.
22:14Yes, usually clear soup.
22:15There you go.
22:16That is the key thing.
22:16Pay an extra quid, it turns into consomme.
22:19Excellent.
22:19Right, here we go.
22:20I'm loving today's show.
22:22Just 20 points in it with six rounds.
22:24And, Ian, a bit of pressure here.
22:26You're picking these letters.
22:27A consonant, please, Rachel.
22:29Thank you, Ian.
22:30R.
22:31And a vowel.
22:33A.
22:34And a consonant.
22:37C.
22:38And a vowel.
22:39O.
22:41A consonant.
22:42Y.
22:44And a vowel.
22:46E.
22:47And another vowel.
22:49A.
22:50And a consonant.
22:52D.
22:54And a final consonant.
22:56A final W.
22:5830 seconds.
22:59Whew.
23:28A consonant.
23:28And a vowel.
23:29Ian. Only five.
23:31Tricky round. Ken. Risky seven.
23:34Going for a big seven. Didn't even think of a six.
23:37Ian, the five. Award.
23:39And Ken's on a roll here. Let's see.
23:41Roadway. Roadway's in the dictionary.
23:43Yes.
23:45Right time to gamble. Right time to gamble.
23:48Back within 13 points.
23:50Now, I know Susie didn't have Roadway.
23:51Richard, any other sevens?
23:53Yes, we've got a couple of other sevens.
23:56Raceway.
23:57And daycare.
23:59Daycare raceway in a rolled way means we now see a path to victory for Ken,
24:04but Ian still has a 13-point lead.
24:06Ken, you're picking these letters.
24:07Consonant, please, Rachel.
24:08Thank you, Ken. T.
24:12Another consonant, please.
24:13N.
24:16A vowel, please.
24:18I.
24:20Another vowel.
24:21E.
24:23Another consonant, please.
24:25L.
24:26Another consonant, please.
24:29T.
24:32Another consonant, please.
24:34D.
24:37A vowel, please.
24:39I.
24:41And another vowel, please.
24:44Lastly, O.
24:45And let's play.
24:47O.
24:48And let's play.
25:17Ken.
25:19Ken.
25:19And Ian.
25:20Seven.
25:21The six for Ken.
25:23Toilet.
25:24And Ian looking to get back on track.
25:26Edition.
25:27Edition is all there.
25:28Well done.
25:29Yeah, well done.
25:30Excellent work.
25:30There you go.
25:31Steady that ship, Mr Innis.
25:33As we get more from Richard.
25:35Yeah.
25:35Lentoid.
25:36One.
25:37A lentoid.
25:38Yes, seven.
25:39Yes.
25:40But no more than seven, though.
25:41OK.
25:42Because we were one day away from a deltoid, we could have had a good conversation.
25:45But a lentoid.
25:46I don't know if we've got a lentoid muscle.
25:48I don't think so.
25:48Because it means shaped like a lentil.
25:50So it would be a very small one.
25:52No, it's also relating to the lens of the eye, which is also lentil shaped.
25:56There it is.
25:57I thought it might have been connected with lentils, but I was afraid to say.
26:01Lentoid.
26:01Lentoid.
26:02Let's then dictionary corner as we get our origins and words for this week.
26:06Our first one.
26:07Who's been chatting?
26:09An email has arrived from Jan and Peter Scholdfield, who want to know why gigs are called gigs.
26:16And I guess most of us would think of the musical gig.
26:20You know, I'm going to a gig or they're doing 10 gigs, et cetera.
26:23And I love this because it emerged from a really productive age in England, which was the jazz era, particularly
26:29the jazz era in North America.
26:321920s, 1930s, heyday of people like Charlie Parker, et cetera, who gave us the adjective cool.
26:37That's when that really propelled into popularity.
26:40But it was all about the kind of impromptu improvisational nature of jazz culture, really.
26:46So it was something that was not permanent.
26:49It was just temporary.
26:50And then they would move on to another venue.
26:52So it suggests movement.
26:54And that is what gives us a clue as to its origin, because we think it goes back to the
26:58gig that in the 18th century was a light two-wheeled carriage pulled by a single horse.
27:04So very good for quick trips, not good for long distances, which is similar to Rachel's and my running style.
27:11But again, it would be something quick, and then you would move on to the next one.
27:16There is an alternative theory that it goes back to engagement, but my money is on the gig that used
27:21to be a horse-drawn carriage.
27:22Thank you, Susan.
27:22APPLAUSE
27:25All right, let's get back to our very own freestyle here.
27:28It's Ken and it's Ian.
27:29It's four rounds to go and just 20 points in it.
27:32Ian with his nose in front and picking these letters.
27:35A consonant, please, Rachel.
27:36Thank you, Ian.
27:57And another consonant.
28:00And the final vowel.
28:06Final day.
28:08And good luck.
28:40Iain.
28:40Six.
28:41And for you, Ken.
28:42Seven.
28:43And a seven.
28:44It's a rollercoaster.
28:45Iain.
28:46Learns.
28:46A little shake of the head, Ken.
28:48Foulers.
28:49Foulers, not with a W.
28:51We're not talking about Robbie here.
28:52We're talking about in the football match, repetitive fouling.
28:54Yeah, yeah.
28:55I had to go all the way to the bottom of this entry, but it is there.
28:57Can you add anything else, sir?
28:59So, refusal seven.
29:00Yes.
29:01Eight.
29:01We've got an eight.
29:02Yeah, funerals.
29:03Funerals.
29:04Well, spotted one eight.
29:06And outside of that, low to sevens.
29:09And what matters is it's a tight contest.
29:12And Ken, let's see if you can close that gap even more.
29:16Final letters.
29:17Consonant, please, Rachel.
29:18Thank you, Ken.
29:19R.
29:21A vowel, please.
29:23O.
29:25A consonant.

29:30L.
29:31A vowel, please.
29:33I.
29:35A vowel, please.
29:38O.
29:40Another vowel, please.
29:42E.
29:44A consonant.
29:45T.
29:46And a final consonant.
29:50Final N.
29:51Last letters.
29:52Lost letters.
29:53Two letters.
29:56Two letters.
30:00ORCHESTRAL MUSIC PLAYS
30:267 as well. A rare, uneventful round, it seems.
30:29Ken.
30:30Politer.
30:31And for you, Ian.
30:32Portion.
30:33Portion.
30:34Portion, absolutely fine, yes.
30:35Any other 7s?
30:36Lots of 7s there as well.
30:38Lots of 7s.
30:39Yeah.
30:39One for me, protein.
30:41Oh, I had one for you, loopier.
30:44Which is relevant.
30:47So, 7s, but no 8s.
30:49No, we could say.
30:50There you go, same.
30:51Same-sies.
30:52All right, there you go, 57, 70.
30:54Will we get a crucial conundrum between two challengers?
30:57It depends on these final numbers picked by Ian Innes.
31:00I'm going to go for too large.
31:02Too large.
31:02You want something easy at this stage.
31:04You want to sail to that countdown teapot.
31:07Ken wants to stop you.
31:08Let's see.
31:08Final numbers.
31:095, 8, 2, 9.
31:12And the large two, 25 and 50.
31:15And the target, 437.
31:184, 3, 7.
31:19And last numbers.
31:51Big one, that's 437, Ian.
31:53Yes, 437.
31:54Look, first big smile we've had from you today.
31:58And Ken?
31:59Now 440.
32:01There you go.
32:02Ian, it's already in the bag, off you go.
32:0450 times 9.
32:0650 times 9, 450.
32:08And then 8 plus 5 is 13.
32:12And you can smile and breathe.
32:14Yeah, well done.
32:18Good battle, and as we head into this,
32:20this Countdown Conundrum,
32:22I can now reveal, Rachel,
32:23that was a win for Manchester United over Liverpool.
32:27We had a little battle going on there.
32:30But listen, let's leave it all out there in the pitch.
32:33We're not finished yet.
32:34Fingers on the buzzers, please.
32:35Let's reveal the Countdown Conundrum.
32:38We're not finished yet.
32:40We're not finished yet.
32:46We're not finished yet.
33:06Let's reveal the Countdown Conundrum.
33:08No such luck! Ken and Ian didn't see it, Rachel and Susie did. Big grins on your faces.
33:16Richard, your face says you didn't get it, no offence.
33:19Not this song.
33:20Because your face looked like mine. All right, Susie, Rachel, what is it?
33:23Hopefully amplified. Yeah, let's have a look.
33:26Yes! Well done.
33:29Yes. Listen, I don't mind the handshake happening there,
33:33because I was playing such a good spirit today, it was really, really lovely,
33:37but, Ken, no more Liverpool chats for us, unfortunately.
33:40Oh, wow.
33:42Safe home to you. Well done.
33:44And, Ian, you get to sit in the Champions chair tomorrow, eh?
33:47Amazing.
33:48Lovely stuff. I will see you tomorrow. Well done, mate.
33:51Thanks.
33:52Lovely. Richard, Susie, one show at a time, isn't that right, Richard?
33:57That's right, one step at a time, that's the finish line,
34:00and hopefully the trophy at the end.
34:02Exactly. Well, listen, another four before we get any break at all,
34:06so see you tomorrow, Rage.
34:07I'm going to do the whole 80 metres back to my dressing room running.
34:11I'll sponsor you.
