01:00You christened one of your cats after a Wimbledon champ. Is that right? What was this all about?
01:04We did indeed. I'm a fan of obviously just his tennis skills but Rafa Nadal and we got our little
01:11boy cat, one of our boy cats the same week that Wimbledon was on and Rafa won it that year.
01:15Yeah?
01:16We called him Rafa.
01:17Good. Well, he's a class act. Mind you, some of those tennis girls are tremendously skillful and really quite appealing
01:24to the eye.
01:25I really, I'm absolutely more interested in Rafa I have to say.
01:28Yeah, no, those long-legged Russian girls are.
01:31There's a certain arm and a certain few muscles he's got.
01:33Yes?
01:33Yes.
01:34He's from Mallorca. Is he in Mallorca or something?
01:36I don't know. I don't know.
01:37Yeah, one of the islands.
01:39I haven't done enough research clearly.
01:40He's good though. He's very good.
01:42And it's nice, the friendly competitiveness, the tennis players, they're good ambassadors I think.
01:47I think so.
01:47We've got some friendly competition today as well.
01:49Yeah, yeah. I was just thinking they're good but we've got some very good players here today.
01:54We do.
01:54We welcome back Victoria. How are you?
01:56I'm good, thank you.
01:57Good. Season's over for Arsenal.
01:59Indeed.
02:00Wages going up again next season.
02:03For those that don't know, Victoria's in charge of paying the Arsenal players, she's in charge of payroll, is that
02:08right?
02:08That's right and all the hard-working staff that work there as well.
02:11And indeed, yeah.
02:12I bet their salaries don't leap just quite as quickly or indeed as grandly as the players do.
02:17But anyway, welcome back.
02:19Welcome back.
02:19And we also welcome back Peter, Peter Lee, a senior meteorological office from Donnermead in Dublin.
02:26Very pleased to see you back, Peter.
02:27Have you been well?
02:28I have indeed, yes, yeah.
02:29Excellent.
02:30Alright, well, we wish you both good luck because you were great competitors and here you are in the quarter
02:35-finals.
02:35Well done.
02:36So let's have a big round of applause for Victoria and Peter.
02:43Victoria and Peter.
02:45And who else have we got?
02:46Inevitably and joyously, we welcome back after the weekend Susie.
02:50Hello.
02:50And also, sitting next to Susie, one of Countdown's favourite sons.
02:56Dr. Phil Hammond.
02:58And who doesn't know Dr. Phil?
02:59Welcome back.
03:01And we brought you back, by popular appeal, to sit in that chair this important week as we go up
03:06to the end of the series.
03:07Thank you very much.
03:08I think you were in that chair when I first started my little stint.
03:14You were mortally ill.
03:15I was, do you remember?
03:16You had a terrible chest infection, although you led us to believe that you weren't going to survive the day.
03:21And I got you through there with a bit of an examination, I remember.
03:24And we'll leave it there, Phil, if we may.
03:25I think we will.
03:26And let's get on with the business of the day.

08:18Now then, in the corner.
08:19We think we've got a seven.
08:20We think we've got noddies.
08:22Noddies?
08:23Noddies.
08:23I don't know what it means, but sounds good.
08:25Noddies?
08:25Lots of senses.
08:26It can be a foolish person, a noddy.
08:29Okay.
08:29A tropical turn, which is possibly from its behaviour during courtship, because it nods a lot.
08:36Okay.
08:37Or a brief shot in a filmed interview in which the interviewer nods in agreement or acknowledgement.
08:41Ah, of course.
08:42That's in there.
08:42Yes.
08:43Oh, yes, they say, can you do some noddies?
08:45That's how they completely change the meaning of what you've said, isn't it?
08:47You say something, you do a couple of noddies, and then they edit it out and completely change
08:50what you've said.
08:51Exactly.
08:51A nasty trick.
08:52They're so clever.
08:53They're so clever.
08:54Thirteen to twenty, Peter Leeds.
08:56Plenty of time.

10:08Victoria?
10:08I'm going to try seven.
10:10All right.
10:10Peter, seven?
10:11Posable.
10:12Victoria?
10:13I've got the same word.
10:14They're both posables.
10:16Do we like posable?
10:17I think it's completely plausible.
10:19Just, um, it needs to be in, and it is.
10:21Yes, they're under pose.
10:22Well done.
10:22Excellent.
10:23Very good.
10:28Now then, Phil.
10:29They've beaten us.
10:30I was stuck on gables, which was a mere six, so they've beaten us.
10:33Well done.
10:33That's why they're in the quarterfinal.
10:34Very impressed with that.
10:35Well done.
10:36All right.
10:37Excellent.

12:13well done Peter 37 to Victoria's 30 but now we turn to Dr. Phil Dr. Phil I think we need
12:19to start by
12:20looking at Susie's wonderful jumper you notice there's some glittery bits on the elbows you have
12:24to put your hands behind it it's like sitting next to Madonna it's wonderful isn't it what a great
12:29garment that is now I came up early and I'd have a bit of time relaxing and polishing my anecdotes
12:33I arrive at the hotel Rachel is there to meet me she says thank God you've arrived Dr. Phil terrible
12:38trouble with Nick hypochondriacis oh he's off again even worse than that he's had six heart attacks
12:43already today you've got to come and see him I said I'm sorry Rachel this is like a busman's
12:46holiday this is my comedy time I'm not a doctor I want some time on my own so off she
12:50goes in a
12:51huff the thing you learn about Nick if you do the apprentice is that you can run from Nick but
12:54you
12:54can't hide can you so I've heard about an hour on my own Nick comes up and he says oh
12:58Dr. Phil thank
12:59God you're here he said I've got this terrible um this is this terrible suspicious mole on my left
13:04gluteus let me show it to you I said it's a very crowded restaurant Nick I don't think this is
13:08appropriate he said no everybody in the restaurant's seen it the lady over there she thinks it's a
13:11solar keratosis that lady thinks it's a hemangioma lovely lady on the sweet trolley she thinks it's a bit
13:16of sherry trifle it's not really the pace he said well come and sit with us the whole crew is
13:20here
13:20I said no I'm trying to have some time off he said Susie and Rachel want you to sit in
13:24between them
13:24you know how fond they are of you and I thought maybe Susie and Rachel I've got to come across
13:28I
13:28come across Susie isn't even in the restaurant Rachel is sitting over the other side saying do not
13:32approach there's a sign in front of her the only seat left is next to Nick so I sit there
13:37next to Nick
13:37and it starts the first thing is I've got this terribly spongy bit on the top of my left thumb
13:42the right thumb is normal this is ever so slightly spongy I've got a nose hair that's slightly
13:46greener than the others the others are all sort of beige and this one's green I've got a little
13:50whoosh on the end of my toes I said no I've absolutely had enough I don't want to listen
13:54to this now it's probably a virus there's a lot of it about I finally after about three hours I
13:57get
13:57rid of them and then towards the end of the evening there's sort of a nudge and it's oh Dr.
14:02Phil it's
14:02an emergency it's an emergency it's three o'clock in the morning and you said you'd stay over that
14:06side of the bed he said no I've run out of my tablets this is awful I can't possibly go
14:11I've
14:11run out of my tablets and which tablets have you run out of he said my Dolly Parkins my Dolly
14:16Parkins
14:16I said show me the package it says Candace Artin Candace Artin now that's quite an expensive
14:20job we don't prescribe that in Somerset you must have a very posh doctor but I had some tablets
14:24that were almost identical they were the same color the same shape the same size same line across
14:28the middle but much cheaper so I thought I can fob him off with these so I send him off
14:31he goes into
14:32the toys and he comes back and he goes Dr. Phil you tricked me they weren't the same tablets I
14:36said yes
14:36they were he said no they went is it my normal ones sink when I throw them down the toilet
14:39and
