00:30Hello, everybody. Take your seat and get ready for another episode of Countdown Series 90.
00:36Lovely to have you along this Tuesday afternoon.
00:38Hello, Rachel.
00:39Hello, Colin.
00:401957, on this day, the Camp Nou, or the Nou Camp, as I like to call it, opened its doors
00:45for the first time.
00:46And to this day, it's still the highest capacity for any permanent football stadium.
00:52Good for you guys, because 1999, Bayern Munich, Champions League final for United.
00:57Well, I went there more recently and saw us lose to Barcelona.
01:00Yeah.
01:00But, I mean, if you're going to lose to anybody in the Nou Camp with Messi playing, you know, it's
01:04not bad.
01:05Where do you think it is in the top ten biggest sports stadiums?
01:10I mean, it's got to be the biggest in Europe.
01:12It's not even in the top ten in the world. Number one's in North Korea.
01:16They're on Grado Stadium, and that hosts 150,000.
01:20Then it's India's National Cricket Stadium, which is 132,000.
01:25Wow.
01:25I know.
01:27For cricket.
01:28But here's the thing.
01:29Where do we go after that?
01:31All the way through in the top ten, they are all college football stadiums.
01:36All these stadiums hold 100,000 plus.
01:39To watch those in further education.
01:42No, I've been watching the Dallas Cowboys, the cheerleaders.
01:46I know more about that than I do about American football.
01:48Listen, always a capacity of two in Dictionary Corner.
01:52Always sold out, but only one season ticket.
01:55And that belongs to our guardian of the dictionary, Susie Dent.
01:58Blagging a seat alongside her this week.
02:00It's the music man himself.
02:01It's Whispering Bob Iris.
02:06And, Bob, we have a new champion in Ed Barker.
02:09Lovely Ed.
02:09Very impressive.
02:10Really good.
02:11First win on the board, cricket mad Ed.
02:13You've been doing pantomime every year for decades, right?
02:17Yeah.
02:17Yes, so what's your key part?
02:19What do you play?
02:20I've actually got to play the dame once.
02:23Well, one of the ugly sisters, which was an absolute treasure, really.
02:26I mean, it's one of the things you aim to do.
02:28My biggest problem is I can't sing.
02:30I can sell a song, but I can't hit a note.
02:33I'm hopeless at it.
02:34No offence, Ed.
02:35None of us had you pegged as Cinderella there, but that's fine.
02:38So you think you can't sing?
02:40I'm sure I can't sing.
02:41Well, let me introduce your challenger, Trisha Datt,
02:44who's a lifetime in music.
02:46And you believe, in terms of teaching to sing, everybody can sing.
02:51Yes, I do.
02:52Well, meet your biggest challenger ever.
02:53His name's Ed Barker.
02:54He says no.
02:55But I think you're right.
02:56I mean, it's like anything.
02:57You know, somebody goes, oh, I can't kick a football streak.
03:00Well, you can, eventually.
03:01You might not be an opera singer, but you're going to get a note out of Ed, aren't you?
03:05Yes.
03:06And it's my belief that everybody can improve their singing.
03:10Yeah.
03:10You know, we can only judge how much once we work with them,
03:13but everybody can make a better sound in some way and can enjoy it more.
03:18Lovely.
03:19Trisha and Ed, best of luck today.
03:22Right, let's see if we can start with the right note then, Ed.
03:25Nine letters.
03:26Hello, Rachel.
03:27Hi, Ed.
03:27Can I have a consonant, please?
03:28You can indeed.
03:29Start today with R.
03:53At home and in the studio, let's play Kite Town.
04:26That's time, Ed.
04:28Seven.
04:29Yeah, and Trisha.
04:30The same word, searing.
04:31Pass it on over.
04:33Yeah, that's fine.
04:33Excellent.
04:34That's not the seven I thought Trisha was going to declare.
04:39Do you want to tell her, Bob?
04:41Singers.
04:44Well, I am having a rest from that.
04:48Was there anything bigger than sevens?
04:51There was, actually.
04:52We did find an eight.
04:53Yeah, a searing.
04:54It's tough.
04:55Let's go then, Trisha.
04:56Let's get more letters.
04:58Vowel, please.
04:59Thank you, Trisha.
05:01E.
05:01And another?
05:03U.
05:04And another?
05:06E.
05:07And a consonant?
05:09M.
05:11And another, please.

05:25And another vowel?

05:30And a final consonant, please.
05:32And lastly, S.
05:33And 30 seconds.
05:34Oh, gosh.
05:35Oh, yeah.
05:39Oh, yeah.
05:52Oh, yeah.
05:58Oh, yeah.
06:00Oh, yeah.
06:03Oh, yeah.
06:05Trisha, give me a number.
06:07Seven. Seven again. And Ed?
06:09I've only got six. What's the six, Ed?
06:11Merges. And for you, Trisha?
06:14Morgs. Morgs.
06:15Very well spotted. Yeah, that's a good one.
06:18A deadly seven. Well done to you.
06:20And what have we got there, Bob?
06:21Well, we've got a seven. We've got regimes.
06:24Regimes.
06:25But you have an eight, Susie.
06:26There is a great eight there. Gruesome.
06:28Oh! Yes.
06:30Morgs to gruesome. Yeah.
06:31Right.
06:34Numbers.
06:34And Ed?
06:35Can I have one large, please, Rachel?
06:37You can indeed. Thank you, Ed.
06:38One large.
06:39Five little first numbers of this contest are four, five, two, ten, nine.
06:48And the large one, 25.
06:49And your target, 465.
06:52465. Numbers up.
07:23465.
07:23465.
07:244, 6, 5. Ed?
07:28Yes, 4, 6, 5. And for you, Tricia?
07:30Yes, 4, 6, 5. For 10 points each, let's confirm it. Ed?
07:33Right, so 10 plus 9 times 25...
07:3819 times 25, 4, 7, 5.
07:41Minus 5 times 2.
07:43Minus 10. Lovely. 4, 6, 5.
07:46What about you, Tricia? And I did it slightly differently.
07:482 times 9 is 18. Yeah.
07:52Times 25 is 450. It is indeed.
07:55And add the 10 and the 5. Lovely.
07:57Same result, 10 points apiece. Magic.
08:00APPLAUSE
08:01And here's your start for today, that's for sure.
08:04Nasty Chop is our tea-time teaser. Nasty Chop.
08:07He wishes he was special, but he's just a creep.
08:09He wishes he was special, but he's just a creep.
08:32Sycophant, Sycophant was the answer.
08:34Tricia, Ed, you're doing so well so far.
08:35I love you both. Exactly the same.
08:38Tricia, let's get more letters.
08:39A vowel, please.
08:41Thank you, Tricia.
08:42A. And another?
08:45E. And another?
08:47I. And could I have a consonant, please?
08:51C. And another?
08:54N. And another consonant?
09:00S. And a vowel?
09:08I. And another consonant?
09:15Lastly, W.
09:17Thank you, Rich.
09:18Yes?
09:46JoveSие!
09:47So, with that wrapped up a very Centers for Lab like you and for Allah,
09:49Tricia? Only a six, I'm afraid.
09:51And Ed? Yes, I'm afraid I've only got six as well.
09:53Listen, six is very good indeed. Tricia? Winces.
09:57And for you, Ed? Yes. Winces.
10:00There you go. Wincing away here. Anything else?
10:02We've got seance for six.
10:05Do we have a seven? No?
10:08Not the weakest one. My goodness.
10:11Right, well, seven points in it still. More letters, Ed.
10:13Can I have a consonant? Yes, you can. L.
10:16And a vowel? O.

10:36And a final consonant, please. And a final R.
10:40And half a minute.
10:41Absolutely.
10:56Yeah.
10:57Any tenant?
11:06What other options have a waiter?
11:08You know, I've done an embassy.
11:12Ed?
11:13Er, only a six again, I'm afraid.
11:15And for you, Tricia... And a rather dodgy six.
11:17Dodgy six. Both written down, yes?
11:19Yes. Excellent. Ed, what's a six?
11:21Mine's a faller.
11:23And for you, Tricia? And mine is a failure.
11:26A failure and a faller. I've done both,
11:27so they're in the dictionary.
11:29Er, well, faller is in the dictionary,
11:31but sadly, a failure... What?
11:34..isn't. That's bizarre.
11:35I know, I'm so sorry. So many people at home
11:38had already given themselves
11:39the six points. You weren't the only one there,
11:41Tricia. So what else did we see?
11:43There is an addiction. I was stumped on this. You've got
11:45another word there. Oh, yes.
11:47It's actually a countdown word, this one.
11:49For seven, there's aileron.
11:51The flap on an aircraft swing. Exactly.
11:53It's always good to have that one in the back pocket.
11:55Yes. Right, just one point
11:57in it. Nice second numbers, Tricia.
11:59You're choosing. Could I have two
12:01from the top and four others,
12:03please? You can indeed. Thank you, Tricia. Two large,
12:05four little. And the four little ones
12:07are eight, four, two, and ten. And the large two,
12:14one hundred and seventy-five. And the target,
12:18five hundred and eighty-four. Five-eight-four.
12:20Number's up.
12:22.
12:22.
12:22.
12:24.
12:25.
12:36.
12:37.
12:37.
12:37.
12:38.
12:38.
12:38.
12:39.
12:39.
12:39.
12:39.
12:50.
12:50.
12:51.
12:51.
12:51.
12:51.
12:52.
12:52.
12:53.
12:53.
12:53Trisha? Yes, I hope I've got that.
12:56And Ed? No, I was struggling. I've got 5.88.
12:59Off you go, Trisha. 8 times 75, I hope, is 600.
13:03It is. And then minus 10 plus 4 plus 2.
13:09Yep, for 16 and 5.84. Well done.
13:12There you go. APPLAUSE
13:15Good time to pick up a maximum of 10 on the numbers.
13:1811-point lead for challenger Trish against our Ed.
13:22As we break bread again with Bob Harris.
13:25Bob, I'm asking you to go back to when Fred Flintstone was a kid,
13:30but how did you get into radio?
13:33LAUGHTER
13:35Yes, it does almost go back that far.
13:38In fact, I was at the BBC a little while ago,
13:40standing next to John Simpson, and somebody pointed out that,
13:43between us, we've put in 112 years at the BBC.
13:48So, yeah, you're pretty much right there, Colin.
13:51But, no, it was my mum, really, that got me into radio,
13:56because she used to absolutely love listening to the radio.
14:00And, you know, I remember listening with her as a child.
14:03And, in fact, she organised for me to have my first ever mention
14:07by anyone on the radio, which was a shout-out on my 15th birthday
14:13from David Jacobs.
14:15Yes.
14:16So my mum wrote back to him to say thanks very much
14:19and how much she loved his music and everything else.
14:21And then he wrote back to her, saying,
14:24I'm so glad that you're enjoying the programme.
14:26And so began a correspondence between the two of them...
14:30Wow. ..that lasted through the years.
14:32So when I started myself on Radio 2 in 1996,
14:37at this point, David Jacobs had not made the connection
14:41between me and my mum.
14:43Wow.
14:44So I started on a Saturday evening and David was broadcasting live
14:47down the corridor in Studio 1J at the Broadcasting House.
14:52And I thought, I've got to go in there and kind of introduce myself.
14:55So I went in when he was doing his programme live and I said,
14:59David, you know the Doria Harris that you've been communicating
15:03with all these years?
15:04Yeah.
15:04Well, that's my mum.
15:06And then you punched him in the nose.
15:08Yes.
15:09She'd kept all the correspondence in, you know...
15:13Yeah.
15:13..a dressing table drawer, wrapped in a bow and everything.
15:18It was just so, so romantic.
15:19Brilliant. Thank you, Bob.
15:20APPLAUSE
15:24Back to this story, 11 points in it.
15:27And Ed playing catch-up as champion, let's go.
15:29Can I have a consonant, please, Rachel?
15:31Thank you, Ed.
15:32C.
15:33And a vowel?
15:35E.
15:36And a consonant?
15:38T.
15:39And a vowel?
15:40U.
15:41And a consonant?
15:44L.
15:45And a vowel?
15:46O.
15:48And a consonant?
15:49B.
15:50B.
15:51And a vowel?
15:53U.
15:54And a final consonant, I think, please.
15:57A final G.
15:59And start the clock.
15:59Jack.
16:29Jack
16:30Ed?
16:31Six.
16:32And for you, Trish?
16:34And a risky six.
16:35And a risky six. OK, Ed?
16:37Goblet.
16:38He's not thinking it's mine risky. No, it's not.
16:40Trisha?
16:41I had boot clay.
16:43Yes, I haven't seen that one.
16:45It comes with an accent, but that's fine, we can allow that.
16:47And a boot clay sweater is on with that sort of curled ply,
16:51a particular type of fabric, so it was spotted.
16:53Boot clay bob?
16:54Yeah, no, not that great.
16:56Clout is mine five.
16:58Yeah, he makes good.
16:58Nae good, nae good.
16:59Buglet stole the show, really did.
17:01Very nice.
17:02Nice.
17:03OK, back to it.
17:05More letters, please, Trisha.
17:07Could I have a vowel, please?
17:09Thank you, Trisha.
17:10E.
17:11And another one?
17:13A.
17:14And a consonant?
17:15R.

17:26And another one, please?
17:28T.
17:31And a consonant?
17:34M.
17:35And a vowel?
17:38O.
17:39And a final consonant, please.
17:42And a final H.
17:43And here we go again.
18:15Transcription by CastingWords
18:16A six.
18:18Ed?
18:18Six.
18:19Six as well.
18:19Tricia?
18:20Heater.
18:21A heater.
18:22And for you, Ed?
18:23Mother.
18:24A mother and a heater and six points each.
18:27No problems there.
18:28Can we push it forward with those letters?
18:30Well, I've got a six as well.
18:32Rehome.
18:33Yeah.
18:34Yeah.
18:34Last minute spot there is o-meter.
18:37O-H-M-M-E-T-E-R.
18:40And it's there for eight and it's an instrument for measuring electrical resistance.
18:43And there it is for an electric eight.
18:46Let's get back to the numbers then.
18:48It remains 11.
18:49It's just perfectly poised.
18:51And, Ed, you're picking our third numbers.
18:53I'm still not risking it.
18:54Can I just have one large, please?
18:56You're not risking it.
18:57Well, let's see if the tactics pay off one large.
18:59Five little coming up for you, Ed.
19:01And they are nine, one, three, nine, two, and 50.
19:08And you need to reach 383.
19:11Three, eight, three.
19:12Numbers up.
19:12You need to reach 393.
19:423-8-3, please, Ed.
19:443-8-2, I'm afraid. One away. Trisha?
19:47Yes, I think I'm on 3-8-2 as well. I haven't totally written it down.
19:51Well, you'll have to go first, then, Trisha.
19:539-1 is 8, times 50 is 400.
19:58Yep.
19:59And then two nines are 18, and take it away.
20:04The second nine, 18, and that gets you one away. Lovely.
20:08And what about Ed? Yes, exactly the same.
20:10Whether you can decipher that or not.
20:13Seven points each, well done.
20:15So, 3-8-3. Take us all the way, Rich.
20:18Yeah, there were a couple of ways.
20:20One of them, you could have said 9-1 is 8 again.
20:233-2 is 1. Take that away from the 50 for 49.
20:28Times those together for 392, and take away the second nine.
20:35There we go, 3-8-3.
20:37APPLAUSE
20:38With ten points, have you got that at home?
20:41Second teatime teaser, grind sofa.
20:44Grind sofa. Under pressure, but cool as a cucumber, thanks to this.
20:48Under pressure, but cool as a cucumber, thanks to this.
21:10Well, Susie Dent, I can pronounce it, but I have no idea.
21:13Sang-froid.
21:15I can't pronounce it, I have no idea.
21:19It means cold blood, literally in French, and it's just coolness or composure.
21:23You've got sang-froid.
21:24That's what Ed Barker, whatever she said, is going to need.
21:28He's 11 points behind, six rounds left.
21:30Trisha, nose in front, picking these letters.
21:34Vowel, please.
21:35Thank you, Trisha.
21:36And another, I.
21:37And another.
21:38E.
21:40And another.
21:41E.
21:43And a consonant.
21:45P.
21:46And another consonant.
21:48M.
21:50And another consonant.
21:53R.
21:55And a vowel.
21:57A.
21:59And a consonant.
22:01C.
22:04And another consonant, please.
22:08And lastly, N.
22:10And good luck.
22:11E.

22:36E.
22:41MUSIC
22:42That's it, Tricia?
22:43Er, six.
22:44And Ed?
22:45Yes, I'll stick with the six as well, then.
22:47OK, Tricia?
22:49Prance.
22:49Prance, and for you, Ed?
22:51Remain.
22:52Remain.
22:53What were you thinking of risking, Ed? Did you ask something?
22:56I was thinking of campier.
22:57Oh, it is in.
22:58Oh!
22:59Yes.
23:01Music might be campier than, you know, one song campier than the next,
23:04so, yeah, it's an addiction.
23:05Goodness me.
23:07Yeah.
23:07So, that seven was there, but you've been throwing eights out
23:10willy-nilly all week?
23:12Not this time.
23:14Another seven.
23:14Paceman, campier, that's our...
23:16Yeah.
23:17That's our loss, I'm afraid.
23:18Are you saying paceman?
23:20Yes.
23:21So, if only someone here had maybe started their own cricket pitch
23:24and was a cricket fanatic, you know?
23:26If only we had somebody like that here.
23:29Ed, never mind, put it behind you.
23:31It's another innings now.
23:33Er, can I have a consonant, please, Rachel?
23:35Thank you, Ed.
23:36T.
23:36And a vowel?
23:38I.
23:40And a consonant?
23:41K.
23:42And a vowel?
23:44E.
23:45And a consonant?
23:46S.
23:47And a vowel?
23:49O.
23:50And a consonant?
23:52N.
23:53And a vowel?
23:55E.
23:56And a final consonant, please.
23:59S.
24:00Come on, Barnsley.
24:01and a vowel?
24:05And a consonant, please.
24:10A vowel?
24:15And a vowel?
24:20And a vowel?
24:22The vowel in throat?
24:22And a vowel, we get an vowel in middle and aĐ»Đ°Ñ‚ivist.
24:31When the vowel then should be supposed to get an vowel.
24:32Ed?
24:34Seven. And Tricia?
24:35And seven. Excellent. What's your word, Ed?
24:37Nosiest. And for you, Tricia?
24:39In tones. In tones and nosiest, Susie?
24:42Oh, nosiest, absolutely fine. You need two N's for in tones.
24:45Unfortunately, Tricia, I'm sorry.
24:47It's all right. You had points to spare there, Tricia.
24:49You're fine. You're still in the lead by four.
24:51Let me be nosy. What have you got, Bob?
24:53Well, we do have a nine.
24:55What have we got?
24:56Tokenises.
24:57Tokenises.
24:58Yes. Yes.
25:01Is that what you do when you indulge in tokenism?
25:03Yes, it's that. It's got lots of different definitions.
25:06You can use it in terms of data, handling sensitive data
25:08and giving it identifiers. But anyway, it's a nine.
25:11Good stuff. Good stuff. Right, four rounds to go.
25:13Four points in it. Origins of words.
25:16Yes. Well, thanks to George Coyle from Belfast,
25:19who wonders if there is a name for words that we use
25:23at the start or end of a sentence
25:25that we would never use if we were writing them down.
25:29So he gives me an example from Northern Ireland.
25:31I'm not going to begin to try and pronounce this
25:33because I will be struck off.
25:34But he says, so it is, is the kind of Northern Irish one example.
25:39That could be £4.98, so it is.
25:41Yeah.
25:41Yeah.
25:42And his personal hate recently is honestly,
25:44either at the beginning or, to be honest,
25:46at the end of a sentence.
25:47And he says, I understand it's probably something that becomes a habit,
25:50but what do you call them and how do they come about?
25:52Well, some of them are tag questions, or at least they began that way.
25:57So these are questions that are attached to a sentence
26:00and they don't really do very much other than emphasise.
26:03So, for example, you came by train, didn't you?
26:05So it's sort of, you know, giving you the question at the end.
26:08Or it's really stormy today, isn't it?
26:11But what tends to happen is that these are fillers.
26:16They don't really have any particular function in the sentence.
26:19They're not really doing anything,
26:20but we use them so often that they do become a bit of a habit.
26:23And they do have some linguistic effect.
26:25They have some effect on the conversation
26:26that they allow us a little bit of pause.
26:28Certainly the listener can absorb the information more.
26:31But to answer George's question, they are everywhere.
26:34I know they're annoying, but they are taking on the status of filler
26:37where our mind is sort of slowly moving on
26:40to the next kind of, you know, linguistic item.
26:42But they began, a lot of them, as tag questions.
26:45Nice one, George. Thank you.
26:49A really close battle today, so it is.
26:51Just four points in it.
26:53And, Trisha, your letters.
26:55A consonant, please.
26:57Thank you, Trisha.
26:58V.
26:59And another?
27:01T.
27:03And a vowel?
27:05O.
27:06And another vowel?
27:08A.
27:19And a third vowel, please.
27:32And at the end of the day, I.
27:34And let's play.
27:36And another vowel, please.
27:39And another vowel, please.
27:40And another vowel, please.
27:53And another vowel, please.
27:53And another vowel, please.
27:53And another vowel, please.
27:53And another vowel, please.
27:54And another vowel, please.
27:55And another vowel, please.
27:55And another vowel, please.
27:56And another vowel, please.
27:58And another vowel, please.
28:00And another vowel, please.
28:07Tricia?
28:08Seven.
28:09And Ed?
28:10Seven.
28:10Seven as well.
28:11Tricia, what have you got?
28:12Violet.
28:13Violet.
28:15Ed?
28:16I've got Violent.
28:17Violent, Violet.
28:18Both in.
28:19Absolutely fine.
28:20Both there.
28:20Both there for seven points each.
28:22Bob Harris?
28:24Toenail?
28:25For seven.
28:28We've got quite a few sevens, haven't we, Susie?
28:30Yes.
28:31Elation always goes hand in hand with toenail, which is a bit odd.
28:34And a violone, or a violone, which was an old type of double bass.
28:39Music again.
28:41Sevens all the way in, Ed and Tricia's bottom one apiece,
28:43which is what you wanted to do in this nail-biter.
28:46So, let's get our final letters.
28:47And Ed?
28:49Rachel?
28:49Yes, you can guess by now, can't you?
28:51Consonant, please.
28:52Thank you, Ed.
28:53T?
28:54And a vowel?
28:55A.
28:56A consonant?
28:58D.
28:59And a vowel?
29:00I.
29:01And a consonant?
29:02D.
29:03And a vowel?
29:04A.
29:05And a consonant?
29:07D.
29:08And a vowel?
29:10U.
29:11Ooh.
29:12And a final vowel, please.
29:14A final O.
29:16Last letters.
29:17My.
29:19I.
29:33You.
29:41Iaaa.
29:45le-
29:47Does anyone.
29:48Ed?
29:50I'm going to risk a seven.
29:51At this stage, a risky seven, Trisha?
29:53Well, I'll risk one, but not written down.
29:56OK, what have you not written down, Trisha?
29:59Paid out.
30:00Ed?
30:01I've got it the other way round, outpaid.
30:03Right, exactly the same here, and I'm going for...
30:06And I thought, Susie, I'm not sure,
30:08sitting there four points in it, I would take the risk.
30:11They both have.
30:12They both have.
30:13The first thing I looked up as well, not in, I'm afraid.
30:15No outpay.
30:17Well, paid out would be fine as two words, obviously,
30:19but not as a single item.
30:21So, no can do, I'm afraid.
30:22There you go.
30:23Wonderful.
30:24Look at you two gamblers.
30:26Goodness me.
30:28Oh, my goodness.
30:30Bob Harris.
30:31Well, we've got a relatively modest six, outdid.
30:35Nice spot, though.
30:36Yes, that was it, though.
30:37All right.
30:38Four points in it.
30:39Two rounds left.
30:40So many close games.
30:41Well, we get a crucial countdown conundrum today, though.
30:44Last numbers.
30:45Trish, your dad.
30:46May I have two large and four small, please?
30:50You may, indeed.
30:51Important final numbers round coming up, guys.
30:54The little ones are as follows.
30:56Two, eight, one, and five.
31:00And the large two, 25 and 50.
31:02And the target to reach, 694.
31:05Six, nine, four.
31:06Six, nine, four.
31:07Last numbers.
31:08Six, nine.
31:11Thank you, Victoria.
31:11Thanks a lot.
31:37This is how it works.
31:37Boy,position.
31:396-9-4, Trisha.
31:416-9-8.
31:43Four away, Ed.
31:446-9-2.
31:46Two away for seven points could be a very important small lead.
31:51Two times 50 is 100.
31:54100.
31:56Eight minus one is seven.
31:58It is.
32:00Oh, I've gone the wrong way, haven't I?
32:01Four away, Trish. This would get you the outright win.
32:05Eight plus five plus one is 14.
32:09Eight, five, one, 14.
32:12Times 50 is 700.
32:14Yep.
32:17And take away the two.
32:19Six, nine, eight.
32:21Four away. Well done.
32:22Brilliant.
32:23APPLAUSE
32:25So many times we've gone on those last numbers
32:28in the last lot of shows and not got the crucial.
32:31At 6-9-4, Rachel.
32:33You'll have to leave it with me for a second.
32:35Here we go on.
32:36Absolutely right.
32:37There you go.
32:37Here we go.
32:38Let's get the fingers on the buzzers.
32:39Ed and Trisha looked like a crucial countdown conundrum
32:42all the way today.
32:44It hasn't happened.
32:45But still a big ten points.
32:46Let's do it.
32:46Let's reveal today's countdown conundrum.
33:07Tresha.
33:07I think I'm wrong.
33:08I thought thousand, but no, it's wrong.
33:11It is wrong.
33:12Ed, off you go.
33:25All right.
33:26Well done.
33:26If you've got this at home, let's reveal the answer.
33:30Sty count.
33:31Sty count.
33:32Well, Trisha hunted Ed down before that countdown conundrum.
33:36But what a show.
33:37Trisha, you're the new champion.
33:39Congratulations.
33:39Well done.
33:40Just ray of sunshine in the studio.
33:42Thank you so much.
33:43Thank you very much.
33:44Thank you all.
33:45Can't sing for toffee, though.
33:47Cannot sing.
33:48I love a champion who can sing.
33:50And Trisha, we'll see you tomorrow.
33:52Hope so.
33:53And Bob Susie, we'll see you tomorrow.
33:55See you then.
33:55And Rachel, on this day, the birthday of the new camp,
33:58the biggest football stadium,
33:59I know loads of people would have been screaming at the television,
34:02so I have to clear something up,
34:03because they're all thinking about the MaracanĂ£ in Brazil.
34:06It's a very interesting thing.
34:07The official capacity, it's just a little over 73,000.
34:12The highest actual attendance, 173,000 for the 1950 World Cup,
34:18but officially smaller than the new camp.
34:20Good to know.
34:20See you tomorrow.
34:21See you tomorrow.
34:21Happy days.
34:22Can't wait to have you back in here.
34:24We will punch your ticket again.
34:25Same time, same place.
34:26You can count on us.
