00:31Hello, everybody, and welcome to Countdown.
00:33It's Thursday the 16th of April.
00:36Over in Dictionary Corner, you'll find Susie Dent.
00:38She's great at words.
00:40She's being helped all week by Ranveer Singh.
00:42She's a presenter and journalist.
00:44And finally, say hello to Rachel Riley.
00:46She's just great at numbers.
00:49Now, let me just check with the oracle.
00:51Was there a semicolon in every one of those sentences?
00:54I think so.
00:55I think I got it right.
00:55Yes.
00:56OK.
00:57Precise or pretentious?
00:58That's kind of the argument people have about using semicolons.
01:01Oh, never pretentious.
01:02I love semicolons.
01:03I'm very sad, because punctuation is evolving as much as vocabulary,
01:07that they are moving away and we get sort of dashes now,
01:10we get more full stops.
01:11But it's a breath.
01:12It's more than a comma.
01:14A bit more of a break than a comma,
01:15but not as final as a full stop.
01:17I'm not even sure.
01:17Do they teach semicolons at school anymore?
01:19I'm not even sure.
01:20In my son's English, I've even really seen very many.
01:23Yeah.
01:24Right, let's get down to countdown business today.
01:27Ian Kinsella has six wins in the bag right now.
01:31And I know you play countdown all the time,
01:33online, watching the programme back.
01:35So it must be great to actually get in and do it for real.
01:38Oh, yeah, it's amazing.
01:40Yeah.
01:40Yeah, it's like you picture what it would be like
01:42and then next thing you're just, this is real.
01:45You know, it's incredible.
01:46Right, Ian, you're going up against Rhys Cook today,
01:50who has definitely got more energy than you.
01:52How long did it take you to get here?
01:54Only 20 minutes.
01:5420 minutes, that's it.
01:56You actually worked this morning, didn't you?
01:57I was working this morning.
01:58I've got football training tonight.
01:59Tell us what you do, because you do stuff at Bold and Wonders, right?
02:02I do, I do.
02:02I'm a football coach for Bold and Wonders women's team.
02:06Well, two teams, actually.
02:06So the Bold and Wonders women's reserves
02:08and the Bold and Wonders under-16s girls.
02:10Brilliant.
02:10Well, listen, Rhys and Ian, we're going to kick off.
02:12Good luck to both of you.

03:30Ian? Goutier. Ooh, goutier.
03:32You wouldn't want to be that.
03:35It is specified in the dictionary, though. Yeah.
03:38Yeah, still there. Good. Was not sure about that.
03:42What other sevens are dare I even pray for an eight?
03:45We didn't get an eight, did we? We didn't, no.
03:47But I'm sure we had this word earlier on in the week, gustier.
03:49Gustier. Yes, it's the second time outing for gustier,
03:51and you weren't even sure about gustier when you said...
03:53Yeah, it was there again today.
03:55Yeah, loads of sevens, but nothing above, yeah.
03:57All right, let's go again. First time choosing for Rhys.
04:00Hiya, Rhys. Hi, Rhys. Can I have a consonant, please?

04:32OK, let's do it.
04:33OK, let's do it.
05:05Rhys? Just a six.
05:06A six, never just a six. Ian? Seven.
05:09And the six is? Swiped.
05:11And the seven? Adipose. Swipes the points.
05:15It does, and that one's been around before with Ian, yes.
05:18It describes body tissue that's used for storing fat, essentially.
05:22There you go. Can we add anything else there, Ramveer Singh?
05:25We didn't really have anything else, did we?
05:26No, exactly, those two, yeah.
05:28All right, lovely stuff.
05:29Let's switch the board for the first time this Thursday afternoon.
05:33And get some numbers from Ian.

06:09You can do that for this event.
06:22We're looking for 325 from Ian. Yeah, 325 is badly written down. Always
06:28badly written down by you. Rhys? No, I've not got there. Don't worry about it. Let's go.
06:34Should have been a doctor, shouldn't he? With his handwriting. Off you go Ian.

08:41Punted.
08:41Here comes the juggernaut.
08:43Deputing.
08:44Deputing.
08:44Yes, being the deputy four, so standing in for somebody is deputing.
08:48Well done.
08:48Anything else from your deputy today?
08:51It was quite quiet, wasn't it?
08:52It was, yeah.
08:53I was quite quiet over here.

09:39We'll see you next time.

09:42We'll see you next time.
09:44We'll see you next time.
09:45We'll see you next time.
09:46We'll see you next time.

10:01Ian, seven.
10:03Rhys?
10:04A dodgy seven.
10:05OK, let's find out.
10:06Ian, calorie.
10:08And what have you got there?
10:09Uh, locala.
10:10Yeah, more local, locala.
10:11Um, I think, given that it's more than one syllable,
10:15um, it would have to be specified.
10:17I think locala is a bit of a stretch.
10:19If I'm honest, Rhys, I'm not sure I would have heard that,
10:21so I have to say no.
10:22But we'll count calorie.
10:23Yes.
10:24And then what else have you got?
10:25Uh, we have an eight.
10:27Yeah, we've got clerical.
10:28Very nice.
10:29Yeah.
10:29Very nice.
10:30Those type of letters, I was expecting a flower or a disease.
10:33Two Cs, wasn't it?
10:34Yeah.
10:34Yeah, nice.
10:36All right, fantastic from Ian, but we've been here before, Rhys.
10:39In fact, we were here yesterday, and things change very, very quickly,
10:43and I'm sure they will.
10:44Rhys, you're going to pick these numbers.
10:46Can I have one from the top, please, and any others that you choose?
10:49You can, indeed.
10:50Thank you, Rhys.
10:51One from the top, five little.
10:53These five small ones are seven, six, eight, four, and five.
10:59And the large one, 25.
11:01And the target, 680.
11:03Six, eight, zero.
11:04Numbers up.
11:06đấy.
11:34We'll be right back for you.
11:36680, Rhys? 685.
11:39685, 508. Ian?
11:41I think I have 680, not written down, though.
11:45You can't read your own handwriting anyway, so it doesn't matter.
11:47Off you go, mate.
11:49I think I might have gone wrong, but I'll give it a shot anyway.
11:5125 times 4.
11:53100.
11:548 plus 7.
11:568 plus 7, 15.
11:58Yeah, plus 100 times 6.
12:01115 times 6, 690.
12:03Yeah, I've gone wrong, haven't I?
12:05Yeah.
12:055 left, sorry.
12:06Yeah, gone wrong.
12:08Good news for you, Rhys, off you go.
12:105 times 4.
12:115 times 4, 20.
12:13Plus 8.
12:1428.
12:15Times a 25.
12:17700.
12:18Minus a 7 and 8.
12:20So, you've used the 8.
12:22Sorry.
12:23No!
12:24Two mistakes, so this is definitely salt rubbing into wounds.
12:28680, Rhys?
12:30Well, 25 times 7 is 175.
12:34Take away 5 is 170.
12:37And simply times that 5, 4, 680.
12:39There you go.
12:40Well done.
12:41APPLAUSE
12:43All right, no score in that round as we have our daily chat with Dictionary Corner.
12:48Ranveer Singh's been making us laugh a lot this week.
12:50Three stories of those moments when you're not expected to be asked for a photograph or
12:55whatever and it's happened, but we're going to talk a little bit more about the profession
12:58today and those interviews that went better than you could ever imagine, I think.
13:03Yeah.
13:03Well, it's really coincidental because it's World Music Therapy Week, isn't it?
13:07And you were mentioning that and we were talking about music that makes you cry and
13:10you sort of, I am somebody who seeks that stuff out.
13:12So, it leads very nicely into my favourite interview that I've done.
13:16I'm very lucky I interview lots and lots of people.
13:18You know, Hollywood stars or politicians or whatever.
13:21But Wicked, obviously the biggest two films, really, of the last year.
13:26And Cynthia Erivo, who plays Elphaba.
13:28I mean, totally.
13:29She, her voice just, it makes me cry every single time and I got to interview her.
13:35And it was one of those occasions where it's a real pinch me thing for me.
13:40And she was just, and I often find this, the bigger the star, the more sort of humble
13:45and sort of down to earth they are.
13:47I just found she was incredibly just, I just felt completely star struck.
13:52And that doesn't often happen because you get quite used to interviewing big stars.
13:56But her voice certainly, and I think it's that connection to her music.
14:00Yeah.
14:00And she was wonderful.
14:02Just had incredible stories about her time at RADA and so on.
14:05She didn't sing for you in the interview because that would have,
14:07you'd have been blubbing and everything.
14:08Well, this is the thing.
14:09And I felt nervous about asking her because I was like, this is such a sort of,
14:13what a talent to be able to just be able to knock people's socks off.
14:17Yeah.
14:18Like that with something that is just, to me, a God-given talent.
14:22So, you know, I wanted to, but I just thought, I don't want to upset her.
14:26What if she just says, I've not warmed up or something?
14:28And, you know.
14:29But no, it was just brilliant to be around somebody who I admire so much.
14:34And, you know, she's just won an Oscar, Oscars and Grammys and all sorts of things.
14:39And yeah.
14:39Remarkable woman.
14:40It's tricky, isn't it?
14:41And when you're interviewing, which I, I haven't done a huge amount of that side of it, of my career.
14:46You know, those like Hollywood A-listers.
14:48It tends to be on junkets.
14:50And it's a very different art, isn't it?
14:53Because they go, you've got eight minutes.
14:55Yes.
14:55And you, you know, whereas I'm more from the radio world of like, like my Murray Meats series.
15:00Every interview is an hour.
15:02I've got an hour with Dionne Warwick.
15:03I'll get to where I need to be.
15:04Do you know what I mean?
15:05Yeah.
15:05Whereas you have to unlock the door so much quicker because she's going to do eight minutes with the rival
15:11show before you and the big news channel after you.
15:14How can I get that extra thing out of that person?
15:17That's really difficult.
15:18Yeah.
15:19A friend of mine did actually get invited by a music label to go to Tina Turner's house once.
15:26And, you know, it's one of those things where you go, I'd give up my whole career just to do
15:30that for an hour.
15:31You know, just to do that, I'd give it all up.
15:33Because, yeah, what a treat that was.
15:35Was Tina there?
15:36Yeah.
15:37OK.
15:37She wasn't invited by the cleaning company to have a look around the house.
15:41Yeah.
15:41To spend an afternoon, you know, with the late, great Tina Turner.
15:44Another voice that knocks my socks off and makes me cry.
15:46Yeah.
15:47Oh, listen.
15:48I have a weakness for it.
15:49Oh, Tina's sensational.
15:51There you go.
15:52Never met Tina Turner ever.
15:53No.
15:53And all those music trips.
15:55But I love when you meet the old, great singers and they live up the expectation when you
16:00interview them and you just, oh, it's absolutely fantastic.
16:04Lovely.
16:04Thank you very much.
16:05Lovely.
16:09Here we go.
16:11Back to the game.
16:12Rhys, you're going to get off the mark.
16:13Might be this round.
16:14Might be the next round.
16:14It's about to happen.
16:15I hope so.
16:16We know so.
16:18We know so.
16:19Ian, off you go, though.
16:20You're picking these letters.
16:21Consonant, please, Rachel.
16:23Thank you, Ian.
16:23L.
16:24And again.
16:25M.
16:27And again.
16:28S.
16:28And a vowel, please.
16:30I.
16:31And another one.
16:32O.
16:33And again.
16:34I.
16:36And a consonant.
16:38R.
16:40And a vowel, please.
16:43U.
16:46And a vowel, please.
16:48And lastly, E.
16:50Start the clock.
16:52The summar ہوÉ!
17:19That's right.
17:22Time's up, Ian.
17:23Seven.
17:24Good race.
17:25Hopefully a seven.
17:26Told you.
17:27Told you.
17:28Not got it yet.
17:29Well, let's...
17:29I'm not counting my chickens.
17:31Ian.
17:32Misrule.
17:33Is it misrule?
17:34It's not.
17:34What is it?
17:36Smilier.
17:37Yes!
17:38We're Smilier.
17:40Just to get you off the mark.
17:41Then you get on a roll after that.
17:43It's as simple as that.
17:45To Dixery Corner.
17:46Just got more sevens.
17:47It could have been lousier than Smilier.
17:49Okay.
17:49Luckily for you, it wasn't.
17:50It could have been great.
17:52Or mousier, even.
17:53Or mousier.
17:54Yeah.
17:54Ah, let's go again.
17:55Becomes addictive getting these points.
17:57Off you go, Rhys.
17:58I hope so, pal.
17:59I hope so.
17:59Can I have a consonant, please?
18:01You can, indeed.
18:02Y.
18:03And another.
18:05T.
18:05And a third.
18:07R.
18:08And a vowel.
18:10O.
18:11And another.

18:24And another consonant, please.
18:26Lastly, S.

18:51Let's do it.
18:52Or are there two more.
18:53Or are there three more minutes.
18:54Or are we hanging.
18:55There's a layer of water.
18:55Have a consort.

19:08Back-to-back sevens for the cook, look at that.
19:1253-14, Ranveer?
19:14Got an eight, yes.
19:16Registry.
19:17Oh, Registry using the Y, of course, ignore it at your peril there.
19:21Excellent work, Registry for an eight, 53-14.
19:25We're back to the numbers.
19:26As quick as that's flying this afternoon, Ian, you're going to choose them.
19:30One large, please, Rachel.
19:32Got you covered.

20:25100. 7 times 6 is 42. It is.
20:28Add on the 1. Fit them all together. Lovely.
20:32Excellent. For you, Rhys. Added 1 plus 2 equals 3.
20:351 plus 2, 3. Times the 50, minus the 7.
20:39Same result. Lovely. Nice one.
20:42APPLAUSE
20:43Are you a happier man now, Rhys? I'm settling down a bit now.
20:46The problem is when it comes to the end, you can't coach that.
20:48I know. I know. Do you know what I mean?
20:51Let's get this tea-time teaser, which is workload.
20:54Workload. Quite a workload for this creature.
20:56It never stops singing. Quite a workload for this creature.
20:59It never stops singing.
21:16Hello again. Yes, another bird to add to the list.
21:19The wood lark.
21:20And I'm really pleased to say in the last three rounds, Rhys Cook scoring in every single one,
21:25which means we can relax now, we can enjoy everything that lies ahead.
21:29Start with your letters, Rhys.
21:30Can I have a consonant, please, Rachel?
21:32Thank you, Rhys. T.
21:34And a second.
21:36N.
21:36And a third.
21:38P.
21:39And a vowel.
21:41A.
21:42And a consonant.

21:47And another vowel.

21:54A consonant.
21:56T.
21:57Oh, dear.
21:58And another vowel, please.

22:24A consonant.
22:24A consonant.
22:25A consonant.
22:25A consonant.
22:34A lot of screwed-up faces here, Rhys.
22:37I'll just go with a five.
22:38Ian? Six.
22:39And a six. That's frustrating, Rhys. What's your five?
22:43Panto. Panto, yeah, jumped out a bit, didn't it?
22:46Ian? Teapot. Teapot!
22:48It was right in front of her face.
22:50Anything better than Ian's six?
22:52We got an eight, didn't we? Yeah.
22:54Annotate.
22:54Annotate. Yeah.
22:56So if you annotate something, you mark it up.
22:58You write little things and little notes for yourself.
23:00There you go. Wonderful.
23:0169, 24. More letters, please, Ian.
23:04A consonant, please, Rachel.
23:06Thank you, Ian.
23:07L. And again.
23:09C. And again.
23:11F. And a vowel.
23:14U. And again.
23:16E. Another.
23:18A.
23:19And a consonant.
23:21S. And a consonant.
23:24N.
23:26And a vowel, please.
23:28Lastly, E.
23:29Let's play.
23:30And a vowel, please.
24:00And a vowel, please.
24:01That's time, Ian. Seven. And for you, Rhys?
24:04Er, I'll have to go for a seven, then. Yes, you have to at this stage.
24:08Right, Ian, what have you got? Cleanse. Cleanse for you and Rhys?
24:11I went for unfaces. Unfaces.
24:14You can deface and you can be unfaceable, but you can't unface.
24:18I'm afraid, Rhys, I'm sorry. Goodness me.
24:20You follow the logic, though. You can follow the logic there.
24:23So, Ian picks up those seven.
24:25Rambear, after that eight in the last round,
24:28I don't know what we're going to have this time.
24:29Stuck at seven, weren't we? We had fluence.
24:31Fluence, which is beautiful. It's hypnotic power, which is quite nice.
24:35Very nice, like, influence, I guess, exactly, flowing in.
24:37I think that was it, it's sevens, yeah.
24:39You sold that brilliantly. It was just another seven,
24:42but you sold it beautifully. Still, it's nice, it's nice.
24:45Right, well, stay with you. It's Origins Awards, Susie.
24:48Who's been messaging you behind my back again?
24:51Dave Wright from North Somerset.
24:54Why, Dave asks, when being presented with the consequences
24:56of one's actions, do we have to face the music?
24:59Mm-hm.
25:00Which is a great one.
25:01So, it's to accept punishment or criticism.
25:04It's to meet it sort of head-on.
25:05It's a bit like biting the bullet, which famously goes back
25:08to operations without anaesthesia,
25:10when soldiers were given bullets to bite down on,
25:12or grasping the nettle, quite similar to that.
25:14But, not completely sure where it comes from,
25:17but there are two quite plausible origins for it,
25:19and one probably more plausible than the other.
25:21The first is theatrical, and it suggests that actors come on stage
25:27and they have to face the orchestra pit, first and foremost,
25:30who are right in front of them.
25:32So, they literally were facing the musicians and their instruments,
25:36and beyond them, obviously, the crowd.
25:38And for a nervous performer, especially if you were making your debut,
25:43you were just stepping into the limelight, quite literally,
25:45and you were looking down, facing the orchestra,
25:48and having to remember your line.
25:50So, that's the first one, which is quite, as I say, quite credible.
25:53But the most popular one, I suppose,
25:56which has a bit more weight behind it, is a military explanation,
26:00and that is the practice of drumming soldiers out of their regiment
26:03when they had disgraced their company.
26:07So, if they were dishonourably discharged,
26:10whether for desertion or cowardice or other offences,
26:13the ceremony was designed to be deliberately humiliating, essentially.
26:18And often, the soldiers would be stripped of their insignia,
26:23sometimes have their coat turned inside out.
26:26Apparently, I didn't realise that.
26:27And they'd be marched out of camp, but crucially,
26:30to the beat of drums.
26:31And those were particularly loud,
26:33as they were having to walk off their particular stage.
26:37Quite often, it was a piece called The Rogues March,
26:40that these drummers would be beating out.
26:43And so, it was a very public shaming.
26:45It was witnessed by everybody.
26:47So, they literally, again, were facing the music
26:48by hearing this drum beat as they had to walk off.
26:51So, those are the two.
26:53It's not been completely nailed down yet, but those are our best bets.
26:56And I think the military one does sound particularly horrifying, I think.
27:00And, as I say, you know, humiliating and highlighting your disgrace.
27:03Thank you, Susie.
27:05APPLAUSE

31:04Amputees is eight.
31:05Yeah, it's just hanging on to the coattails at the moment.
31:07He's in overdrive.
31:09So, thankfully, he's going to have to power down in two rounds from now.
31:12Rhys, come on, let's get you another ten points here.
31:14It's the final numbers.
31:15Can I have two from the top, please?

31:18Two from the top.

32:18For you, Ian. Same way. Same way.
32:20We'll give you a round of applause.
32:22We will chalk up another century for a seven-time winner now,
32:27Ian. But Rhys, 34 is much better than 24.
32:3144 would be a delight. So let's get your fingers on the buzzers.
32:35Ten points up for grabs Thursday afternoons.
32:38Countdown conundrum.
33:07We'll see you next time.
33:09Right at the end, Rhys.

33:163, 2, 1.
33:17Guess.
33:19Underfine.
33:19That's what we originally thought.
33:21And then about 28 seconds in, the penny dropped with Rachel.
33:23It is.
33:24I think it's unrefined.
33:25Let's have a look.
33:27That's brilliant!
33:31Right, fantastic.
33:32Good exciting end of this show.
33:35Rhys, love all the stuff you're doing at Bolton with the women's teams.
