00:32Good afternoon and welcome to Countdown on Monday the 16th of January, the fattest day of the year.
00:40Somebody's dreamt up the fact that we all feel terribly fat today after the Christmas holidays, turkey and all the
00:48trimmings and all that sort of carry on and apparently everybody feels fat.
00:55You feel very fat today, Rachel.
00:57Not in a bad way, but it was my dad's 60th birthday on Boxing Day.
01:02It would have been my granddad's birthday on the 9th, my birthday on the 11th, my other granddad's on the
01:0613th and my uncle's on the 15th.
01:09So birthday cake galore for me.
01:13Well, you look terrifically trim from where I said, certainly.
01:18I just think, do you know something, it's been cooked up by some makers of some diet product, don't you
01:23think?
01:23Probably.
01:24It's a bit depressing, isn't it?
01:25It's some silly survey.
01:26Trust me, it's just some silly survey.
01:3076% of women are unhappy about their weight.
01:35You're not one of them.
01:36Not really.
01:38No, I can't be bothered.
01:38Life's too short, I like food.
01:40I think you're a dream.
01:41I think you are a dream.
01:43As indeed is Jack, our returning champion for your 7th game today.
01:50Is that right?
01:50Yes.
01:51You should have a sort of a season ticket or a name on the back of that chair.
01:55It's quite extraordinary.
01:56And every time we see you, you score over 100.
01:59Is that it?
02:00Yes.
02:01For those who have had the misfortune to miss Jack in the past,
02:03he's a Gap student from Blackpool.
02:07Wondering whether to become a criminologist or an accountant.
02:11I'm going to have a talk with you later on,
02:13because we've got to start making some decisions there, Jack.
02:16Best holiday ever, a Mediterranean cruise.
02:18And your sister in the West End.
02:22Yes.
02:22Which show is that?
02:23It was in Mary Poppins.
02:26And what sort of role did she have?
02:28It was the role of Jane Banks.
02:30Really?
02:30Yes.
02:31So when will we see her name in light?
02:33Soon?
02:34Hopefully, yes.
02:35A few years, maybe.
02:36Well, I'm looking forward to it.
02:37And who have we got here?
02:38Stuart McPherson.
02:39You're not the Stuart McPherson I know.
02:41I don't think so.
02:41He's an ophthalmologist from Swindon.
02:44He's about 80.
02:45No.
02:45Not related to you?
02:47No.
02:47No, because you're from Middlesbrough, aren't you?
02:49I am, yes.
02:50Yeah.
02:50And what do you do for a living?
02:51I'm a retail supervisor.
02:52What's that mean?
02:55Basically supervising a news urgence up in Middlesbrough.
02:57And it says here that you're a big golfer.
03:01You want to be a pro.
03:02Are you good?
03:03Well, yeah.
03:04Well, I used to play off eight, but I don't play very often now.
03:07It's just fine in the time.
03:08It's all in the practice.
03:09I know.
03:10He plays off four.
03:11Why?
03:12Because he's a good athlete and he plays every day.
03:14Right.
03:15Lucky champ.
03:15Yeah.
03:16Anyway, a big welcome to our contestants today.
03:19Jack and Stuart.
03:27And over in the corner, of course, we've got Susie, as ever.
03:30Welcome to you.
03:32Hello.
03:32And the great John Suchet.
03:35The great John Suchet.
03:41Not only was John one of the great television reporters, roaming the world, getting himself
03:47into trouble and giving us the news as we sat in our comfy chairs, but now, of course,
03:52he's a great music presenter on Classic FM.
03:56Is that right?
03:56Yes.
03:57Yes, that's right, Nick.
03:58It's my new day job.
03:59Well, actually, it's a year in now.
04:00Feels like about a month.
04:02I'm learning a lot, many years spent in television.
04:04I never worked in radio in my life, and I'm having to learn a lot very fast, but it's lovely.
04:10And it's classical music, so it's very civilised and very gentle, and I'm absolutely loving it.
04:15Well, welcome.
04:16Lovely to see you.
04:17Lovely to see you.
04:18Game one, Jack.
04:19It's a letters game.
04:20Off you go.
04:22Hi again, Rachel.
04:23Hi again, Jack.

05:38So, Jack, what have you got for us?
05:40Biface.
05:41Biface.
05:42And Stuart?
05:43Bleach.
05:44OK.
05:45Yes.
05:46Any problems there, John, Susie?
05:48No, no problems at all.
05:50Biface is an archaeological term for a type of prehistoric stone implement,
05:54which is flaked on both faces.
05:56Very nice.
05:56Can you take us further, John?
05:58Well, we've got facile, which is there, isn't it, for six?
06:02Yeah.
06:03Biface, I've never heard of that.
06:04It's a great term.
06:05That's Jack for you.
06:06Good new word.
06:07It reduces the weirdest words.
06:08Yeah.
06:09Weirdest words.
06:11So, level pegging there.
06:13And Stuart, it's a letters game.
06:14Hi there, Rachel.

07:26Stuart? A seven. A seven. And Jack? Seven. All right. Stuart? Planter. Planter. Replant. Replant. Any problems with that? No,
07:39both absolutely fine. Okay. John, any advance? Yeah, I think we found one word, planner. Is that there, Susie? Yes.
07:45One, two, three, four, five. That's only seven again, though, isn't it? Only seven. Thought we'd found some eights, but
07:49then went astray. All right, all right. Well, 13 all, level pegging.
07:55And Jack, off you go. Letters game. Consonant plays. Thank you, Jack. Z. And another. S. Another. P. And another.

09:00Jack? Um, dodgy seven. Dodgy seven, Jack? Yes. Stuart? I'll stick with the safe six. Safe six. And what would
09:09that safe six be? Pilots. Pilots. And Jack? Um, outsize.
09:15Susie. Can you outsize without being outsized? Uh, you can. Outsize is there as an adjective as well as, um,
09:21outsized. So, it's absolutely fine. Good. Well done. Well done. Well done.
09:28And, uh, John, any sort of advances on that?
09:31I can't beat that for a number of letters, but, uh, Susie's found a great one. Tupelos?
09:35Yes. Tupelos. Um, they come up once in a while. T-U-P-E-L-O-S. And they're North
09:39American or Asian trees of damp and swampy habitats.
09:43Hmm. I didn't know that. Sounds like my flat. Good. Well, well done. So, Jack, our champ, six under his
09:51belt, 20 to 13, Stuart. You've got to watch that, Jack.
09:56And, uh, Stuart, it's a letters game, and it's you to kick off.

11:07Mr. McPherson?
11:09Seven.
11:10Seven. And Jack?
11:11I'll try seven.
11:12All right. Stuart?
11:14Strange.
11:16Strange. OK. Jack?
11:18Tanners.
11:19Tanners.
11:21Yes.
11:21Right. Are you happy?
11:22Certainly. Very happy.
11:24And John? Susie?
11:26We can't beat seven, can we? We've got Saunter.
11:29That's seven. We can't find an eight.
11:32OK. All right. So, 27, Jack.
11:3520 to Stuart. Game five, it's a numbers game.
11:38Jack to choose.
11:39Four large, please.
11:40Four large, I thought, so your usual thank you, Jack.
11:43Four from the top and two little ones.
11:45And the first numbers game this week is six and four.
11:49And as we all know, 25, 75, 150.
11:54And the first target of the week, 777.
11:58Whoa. 777.
12:01Whoa.
12:13Whoa.
12:16Whoa.
12:31Jack?
12:32776, not written down.
12:34Right.
12:36Stuart?
12:37775.
12:38775.
12:39Right, so, Jack, let's see what you're up to over there.
12:42OK, 100 plus 25.
12:46100 plus 25, 125.
12:49Minus 4.
12:50Minus 4, 1, 2, 1.
12:51Times 6.
12:52Times 6 is 726.
12:56And add the 50.
12:57And add the 50, yeah.
12:58Well done, one away.
13:00Very good, OK.
13:01So, Rachel, could you have got there?
13:04If you say 4 plus 6 is 10, 10 times 75 is 750.
13:12Add the 25 for 775 and you've got 100 over 50 left for 2.
13:19And add it on for 777.
13:25Joy of a beautiful mind.
13:28So, Jack, 34 to 20.
13:30And now I want to peer across the bloom to have a little chat with John Suchet.
13:36John, what have you got for us today?
13:37Well, Nick, first of all, I thought I'd talk about you.
13:41Oh.
13:41Say, welcome to that illustrious chair.
13:44Congratulations.
13:46It's absolutely perfect.
13:47And I thought I would tell our viewers of the first and only time you and I have previously met,
13:53which was sometime last year.
13:55Do you remember there was an awards ceremony for the cruise industry?
14:00You were hosting it and I was presenting an award on behalf of Classic FM.
14:04So, I had a very easy job.
14:05You had a very difficult job.
14:06And I arrived early.
14:08You were already there.
14:09You were pacing the floor.
14:10And the moment you saw me, you came bounding over and you said,
14:13I've never done this kind of thing before.
14:15Give me a few hints.
14:15What do I do?
14:16How am I going to...
14:16I said, I don't know.
14:17I've never done this kind of thing.
14:19And then I sat down.
14:21Hundreds of people arrived.
14:23You continued pacing.
14:24You were announced in a stentorian voice.
14:27You walked on and you brought the house down.
14:30I've never heard such a carefully nuanced and beautifully humorous talk.
14:36You had them in the palm of your hand.
14:38And I thought to myself then, where is that gimlet-eyed inquisitor from The Apprentice,
14:44as he no doubt will be one day on this programme?
14:46Behind it all, Nick, beats the heart of a thoroughly nice and very entertaining chap.
14:51And it's a great delight to be working with you,
14:53particularly, if I may reveal, you're older than me.
14:57Even if only by six weeks.
14:59I'm looking at you, I'm a thousand years older than you.
15:03John, you're a generous man.
15:04I'm flattered and that's very, very sweet of you.
15:07Thank you so much.
15:09I'm sobbing here quietly.
15:11The teaser is Sir's Pain.
15:13That's P-A-I-N.
15:15And the clue Sir's Pain might subside with the help of these.
15:37Welcome back.
15:38I left you with the clue Sir's Pain might subside with the help of these.
15:42And the answer, of course, is aspirins.
15:45Aspirins.
15:46And now we go on to round six.
15:49Stuart, it's a letters game.
15:51Could I have a consonant, please, Rachel?
15:53Thank you, Stuart.
15:54D.
15:55And another.
15:58S.
15:59And another, please.
16:02G.
16:03A vowel.
16:05A.
16:07A vowel.
16:09O.
16:10And a third, please.
16:12Another A.
16:14Can I have a consonant?
16:17D.
16:19And another.
16:21V.
16:23And a vowel, please.
16:25And the last one.
16:26I.
16:27And here's the clock.
16:29And.
16:40You.
16:41And here's some one.
16:58And this one.
16:59And here's the clock.
16:59Stuart?
17:00A six.
17:01A six.
17:02And Jack?
17:03I'll try a seven.
17:05All right.
17:05Stuart, what's your six?
17:06A void.
17:07A voids.
17:08And Jack?
17:10Adagios.
17:11Oh, I love the words you drill out.
17:14Are you happy with that, Susie?
17:17Absolutely.
17:18It's there as a noun, a movement passage or composition marked to be performed adagio
17:21in slow time.
17:22And I'm going to ask John what's his favourite adagio.
17:26Oh, well.
17:27Are you reaching for Mahler's fifth?
17:30Well, I wasn't actually, although that is very good.
17:32I was reaching for Beethoven because I'm not aware there are any other composers.
17:36No, that's not true.
17:37He did write some wonderful adagios.
17:39Because, of course, you write on Beethoven.
17:42Oh, yes, I do write a little bit about him.
17:44I've got my sixth book on him coming out in October.
17:47Good for you.
17:48Well done.
17:49Never enough to be said about him.
17:51It's wonderful.
17:51It's a living subject.
17:52Well, now that you're here again, I'm going to have to slip out and buy book one.
17:57No, I'll test you on it next time I see you, Nick.
17:59All right.
18:00So, 41 to 20, Jack leads.
18:03And Jack, it's a lettuce game.

23:02We can manage a seven, though.
23:04Compete?
23:04Yes, compete all there for seven.
23:07Very good.
23:08Good, well done.
23:08And now, one of my favourite little spots.
23:13Susie's origin of words.
23:14Ah, well, today I'm going to talk about Even Stevens.
23:17We often talk about equal measures, fair shares, especially in terms of money, as Even Stevens
23:22and where that comes from.
23:24Surprisingly old.
23:25The first record in the Oxford English Dictionary is Jonathan Swift's Journal to Stella, which
23:30was written in 1748.
23:32The rhyming sound of the expression and the pairing of it probably ensured its popularity.
23:36You think about willy-nilly, shilly-shally, lovely-jubbly, all those words which have endured
23:41because of their wonderful sound.
23:43But there is a separate probable origin for it, which is that in Dutch in the early 1800s,
23:49a steva was something of a little value, and it took its name from a low-value coin.
23:54At the time, it was the smallest monetary unit in the Cape under the Dutch East India
23:59Company, equal to about an old English penny.
24:01And the expression seems to have appeared at about that time, it's Stevens at home, meaning
24:05one has money.
24:06So that one has money.
24:08That probably contributed to even Stevens surviving, usually to do with money.
24:19Thank you very much, Stuart.
24:20That's brilliant.
24:21And we're now moving on to game 10, which is a numbers game.
24:24And Stuart, I'm looking at you.
24:26Could I have two from the top, Rachel, and any other?
24:29You can.
24:30Thank you, Stuart.
24:30Hopefully this round will get you closer to even Stevens with Jack.
24:34So for this round, the four small are 9, 10, 4, and 5.
24:40And the two large this time, 50, and 100.
24:44And the target, 620.
24:46620.
24:47620.
25:18Stuart, how did you do?
25:20620.
25:20Well done.
25:21And Jack?
25:21I'm 620.
25:22620.
25:23Right.
25:24And Stuart, tell us how you achieved that.
25:2750 times 10.
25:29500.
25:30Plus the 100.
25:32600.
25:34And then you've got 5 times 4 is 20.
25:36Yeah.
25:36Put it on.
25:37Perfect.
25:37620.
25:38OK.
25:39And Jack?

25:52Again, 620.
25:53Well done.
25:56Rachel, should I ask you if there's a third way?
25:59You could have done 155 times 4, another way.
26:03But I think there's quite a few probably for this one.
26:05All right.
26:05Good.
26:06Well, well done.
26:06So what have we got?
26:0764 to Jack and 49.
26:09Not so far adrift, actually, for Stuart.
26:12And we go into our tea time teaser.
26:15And the teaser is made bone.
26:18And the clue was unhappy and made bones about it.
26:38Welcome back.
26:39And, of course, the clue was was unhappy and made bones about it.
26:44And the answer, bemoaned, bemoaned.

28:13We could only come up with button.
28:14In fact, that came up before all the letters were up,
28:16but the remaining ones didn't add anything to it, did they?
28:19Not at all, no.
28:20Not a nice one, that one.
28:21No.

29:50Retinol, yeah.
29:51Retinol, vitamin A, excellent.
29:53Tinkler was the first thing I looked up to do it because I was looking for that two and it's
29:56not there.
29:57I'm really sorry.
29:58Oh, right.
29:59That's very bad luck.

31:15An eight? Good, that's more like it, Jack.
31:18And an eight as well.
31:19Both an eight, right.
31:21Jack, what's your eight?
31:22A fraction.
31:23Fraction, Stuart?
31:25A fraction as well.
31:27Yep.
31:28Good.
31:31And Susie and John?
31:33Yep, fraction.
31:33We came up with that too, so well done.
31:35You came up with that immediately.
31:36Excellent.
31:37OK, that's it?
31:38A few sevens, Cartoon, Cortina, a few sevens there.
31:41OK, well done.
31:42So, before we move on, that'll be 85 to Jack, 63 to Stuart.
31:47And Stuart, it's a numbers game.
31:49Is your wife Elke?
31:51And more importantly, perhaps, your Shih Tzu, called Martin.
31:55Are they watching?
31:56Yes.
31:57Well, I know where Elke is.
31:58I'm not sure about Martin.
31:59Hopefully he is.
32:00Well, I hope so too.
32:02Yep.
32:03It's a numbers game, Stuart.
32:04Off you go.
32:05OK.
32:05Could I have two from the top, Rachel, please?
32:07You can, of course.
32:08And any other four?
32:09Two from the top and four little ones.
32:11And for the last time today, the numbers are nine, three, another nine, and two, and the
32:17two large this time, 50, and 75.
32:21And your target, 153.
32:23One, five, three.
32:56Stuart.
32:57One, five, three.
32:58Well done.
32:59Jack.
32:59One, five, three.
33:00All right.
33:01Stuart.
33:02Kick off.
33:0375 times two.
33:0475 times three, 150.
33:06And add the three.
33:06And add the three.
33:07Not the most tricky.
33:08All right.
33:10Same again for you, Jack.
33:11Yes.
33:11Same way.
33:12All right.
33:12Well done.
33:13Yep.
33:14We're going on to the conundrum now.
33:16So fingers on buzzers, please.
33:19And reveal today's countdown conundrum.
33:30Jack, you're like lightning.
33:32What is it now?
33:33Duplicate.
33:34Let's have a look.
33:38Demon.
33:40Demon.
33:43Not only, not only does he get it right, but he gets it right in four seconds, by my
33:49reckoning.
33:49And yet again, Jack, predictably, you've gone through the hundred.
33:54You're 105 to Stuart's 73.
33:57That's not a bad effort, aren't you?
33:58We're saying goodbye to our golfer back in...
34:00Where do you play in?
34:01Middle of the...
34:02I used to play at Catterick.
34:03Catterick?
34:04Yeah, Catterick.
34:05With the army?
34:05Yes, yes.
34:06They're handy with a club, aren't they?
34:09You lived in Jersey.
34:10Was that punishing?
34:11No, it was lovely.
34:12Lovely island.
34:13Yeah?
34:13Yeah.
34:14I went there once.
34:15You didn't enjoy it?
34:17It was all closed, I felt.
34:18Right.
34:19Anyway, and you want to do a marathon before you're 40.
34:22How old are you?
34:24I'm 38.
34:25When are you 39?
34:27Next July.
34:28Okay.
34:29Get on with it.
34:30I need to.
34:31Get on with it.
34:32Get on with it.
34:33And the other little note I've got here, because they produce little interesting little sort
34:37of tidbits, is that your favourite book is Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code.
34:43Yeah, yeah, I enjoyed that.
34:44Did you?
34:44Did you get anywhere near it?
34:46Sorry?
34:47In terms of solving it?
34:48No, I wouldn't have said so, no.
34:50It was good, though.
34:51It was better than the film.
34:52Okay.
34:53Back to Middlesbrough with our blessing.
34:55Yeah?
34:56Thanks.
34:56Have a happy 39th birthday.
34:58And would you kindly get on and do some training?
35:01I need to.
35:02Jack?
35:03Yeah?
35:03Yeah?
35:03Season ticket holder.
35:05We'll see you tomorrow.
35:06Yeah.
35:06Well done.
35:07Well done.
35:08Thank you so much, of course, to John and Susie over in the corner, and to the never plump
35:13Rachel on the fattest day of the year.
35:16See you tomorrow.
35:17Same time.
35:18Be sure of it.
35:19Good afternoon.
35:20Good afternoon.
35:31We know you are waiting.
35:32Someone will answer your call shortly.
35:35Richard Wilson's fed up with it.
35:36He's on hold tonight at eight.
35:39Next on four, it's a deal.
