00:31Good afternoon, good afternoon, welcome to the Countdown studio, 3rd of February, start of February, and indeed it's the start
00:37of National Heart Month.
00:39Now we've all got one, and this is the month when awareness is to be raised as how we should
00:46best look after it.
00:472.6 million people apparently, Rachel, in the UK suffer from coronary heart disease, and what we've got to do
00:52is to keep fit, manage our diet, and watch the old blood pressure, something that I do on a daily
00:58and indeed nightly basis.
01:00So, apparently also, just to cheer us up, a glass of red wine is good, in moderation, although one man's
01:07moderation, of course, is another man's bottle and a half.
01:12Anyway, there we are. I don't take too much exercise, and in fact, I'm careless with my health. How about
01:18you? You're a cyclist, now that's a good thing to do.
01:21Well, when it's warm, I'm a fair weather cyclist. I like to do a little bit of exercise.
01:25But you keep fit, yeah?
01:26Well, talking about Heart Month, I think it's really important. There's a charity called Cry, Cardiac Risking the Young, and
01:32even really fit people can have trouble with their heart, and especially really fit people, because it hides heart problems.
01:36So, you can go and get a free heart check, which I've done.
01:39What a good thing to do.
01:40And with Cry, you just go online and register, and you can go and get that done.
01:43Brilliant.
01:43I recommend that.
01:44Good advice. Well done. Well done.
01:46Now, who have we got with us today? We've got Andy Gardner, training accountant from Reading.
01:49Three good wins under your belt there, Andy. Scores of 83-74, and the highest on Friday being 97, I
01:55think it was, from memory.
01:56And you're joined today by Dave Barker, police civilian employee from Wakefield. A writer published a short story collection, The
02:04Hidden Colours of the Dawn. How did it go?
02:07It went very well, thank you, Nick. It was more of an enjoyment for me, really, as writing it.
02:14It didn't sell an awful lot of copies, but it seemed to go down quite well with the people that
02:18read it, and it was a bit of a labour of love, but I enjoyed just really having it published
02:22and getting it out there.
02:23So, let's have a big round of applause for Dave and Andy Gardner.
02:31And over in the corner this Monday, of course, Susie, and the great John Cullshaw. Great John Cullshaw. Comedian, impressionist,
02:39and all-round good guy.
02:41And I'm sure that you've got lots to amuse us with a little bit later on, John.
02:45It's lovely to be back with a February frame of mind. We think that the harshness of the winter has
02:50passed by, and we're thinking of the spring days yet to come.
02:53Yeah, some way away. Some way away. We'll see.

10:47Yeah.
10:48An old adage.
10:49What have we got over there, John?
10:51An alternative, images was there for six, but rather a nice seven in the form of damages.
10:57Ah, damages, indeed.
10:58Yes.
10:58Damages.
10:59Yeah, in court, the bigger the better.

12:16Doric.
12:18Doric.
12:18Yes, thank you, Andy.
12:20Forced.
12:21Forced.
12:22Yeah, we talk about Doric to do with architecture.
12:25It's a classical order of architecture, but it has got a capital D, I'm afraid.
12:29That's bad luck.
12:30Doric columns.
12:31Exactly, yeah.
12:33So there we are.
12:34Now then, John Cuttwell.
12:35A fjords is there for six.
12:37Yes, you can spell it with the I as well as the J.
12:39Good.
12:40But just six is for us, too.
12:42All right.
12:4326 points to Dave's 11, and it's now Dave's numbers, Dave.
12:47Dave?
12:48Thanks, Rachel.
12:49Can I have two from the top and four from anywhere else that you'd like?
12:52You can indeed, thank you, Dave.
12:53Another two large, four-little-one combo, and this time the selection is four, eight, two,
13:00four, and the large two, 25 and 50.
13:04And the target to reach 981.
13:07Nine, eight, one.
13:09Nine, eight, one.
13:39Dave?
13:41982.
13:42One away. Andy?
13:43988.
13:44988. So, Dave?
13:47I've got the 4 plus the 2 plus the 25.
13:524 plus the 2 is 6, plus the 25 is 31.
13:56Multiply by the 50.
13:58What do you think that is?
14:03I think I've made a mistake.
14:06I think it's going awfully well.
14:08But, no, I've gone wrong there, Rachel.
14:12Sorry, Dave.
14:13All right, so let's turn to Andy. Andy?
14:15Okay. So, 25 minus the 4 and the 2.
14:1925 minus the 4 and minus the 2 for 19.
14:22Yeah. And 8 divided by the other 4 is 2.
14:27Add that to the 50.
14:2950 add to 52.
14:31And then multiply them together.
14:33For 988, which is what you declared.
14:36Well done, but still adrift.
14:38Now, Rachel, 981. How tricky is that?
14:41I think it's another impossible one.
14:43We had a few last week and we've got another one today.
14:45All right.
14:46All right.
14:47Andy on 31, Dave on 11.
14:49But now, joy of joys, we turn to John.
14:52John, what are you going to talk to us about?
14:53Well, of course, last November, it was the momentous 50th anniversary of Doctor Who,
14:59longest running sci-fi programme in the world.
15:02And quite appropriate this week at the start of National Heart Week, as you were saying.
15:07Doctor Who, of course, has two hearts.
15:09So, what we've got here, a little potted history, a verse that encapsulates the 50 years,
15:15the first 50 years of Doctor Who.
15:17William Hartnell, the original, back in 1963, defeating Daleks and the Censorites,
15:23and all done in time for tea.
15:24Three years later, when the Doctor said his strength was wearing thin,
15:28regeneration, Patrick Troughton, a new era, ushered in.
15:32The clowning cosmic hobo, of whom we felt so fond,
15:36passed the mantle to John Pertwee, the Doctor-like James Bond.
15:40He faced a radioactive spider.
15:42Had John Pertwee met his maker?
15:44With hat and scarf and teeth and curls, he morphed into Tom Baker.
15:49That booming voice and crazy eyes fell down off a telescope.
15:53But Peter Davison's dashing doctor ensured that we would cope.
15:57The cricketing doctor's exploits found the caves of Androzani.
16:01He should have stopped inside the TARDIS that day and just had a bacon-sarney.
16:05Colin Baker's Technicolor Time Lord, a brash and vibrant mix,
16:10strident and ebullient, through till 1986.
16:14When an enigmatic wizard appeared in the shape of Sylvester McCoy,
16:18the Doctor is a Time Lord and he's a very naughty boy.
16:22A San Francisco bullet sparks a change to Paul McGann.
16:27Can he keep the Doctor in our hearts?
16:30Emphatically, he can.
16:32The next part is mysterious.
16:34Through the Time War on High Alert,
16:36the warrior doctor's destiny personified by John Hurt.
16:40Saturday nights, back once again,
16:42Chris Eccleston striding forth and speaking broad Mancunian.
16:46Lots of planets of a north.
16:49David Tennant powers here and there, defeating every foe.
16:52We empathised with his final words.
16:54I don't want to go.
16:56Matt Smith will shout Geronimo for the Doctor's 50 years.
17:00Just go forward in all your beliefs.
17:02No anxiety, no tears.
17:05Will Peter Capaldi trip through time
17:07with Malcolm Tucker's fire and flare?
17:10The Doctor in the thick of it.
17:12Travel safely and don't swear.
17:14Very good.
17:17Very good.
17:22So you're right about Capaldi.
17:25I mean, that's going to be a difficult thing to do,
17:27to get away from Malcolm Tucker,
17:28where he is so brilliant.
17:30Stephen Moffat said that casting Peter Capaldi
17:32as the Doctor was incendiary
17:33because, you know, a great, great actor
17:36and the best part on television.
17:38So, yes, it should be wonderful.
17:41Yeah, very good.
17:41Look forward to that.
17:42Now then, 31 to Dave's 11.
17:44So, Andy, you're back on.

20:45I think we've got a Stuart's inquiry going on in here. You can have that for six, not seven. A
20:50couple of sixes. Polers was there for six. And areola. That word again.
20:54It came last time I was on this programme. You bring it with you, yes, clearly. You can't put the
21:00S on, unfortunately. But I have just spotted a seven, very last minute, which is Loafers.
21:06Loafers. Loafers. Very good. Very good.
21:0945 to 11. Now then, Andy, your numbers game. Off you go.
21:14Same again. Two from the top, please.
21:16Thank you. Two large, four little ones coming up. And this time, the little numbers are ten, four, eight, and

22:06Six, three, two.
22:08Six, three, two. Come on then, Dave.
22:10Well, hopefully. Uh, fifty multiplied by ten is five hundred.
22:13Fifty by ten, five hundred.
22:15Add the other hundred.
22:17Six hundred.
22:18And eight multiplied by four, being you're thirty-two.
22:20Lovely. Six, three, two. Well done.
22:22Good man. Well done, Dave.
22:27Very good indeed.

24:28Uh, dithering as well.
24:29You're both dithering.
24:31All right.
24:31Any more dithering?
24:32Well, first looking at the letters, I was wondering if, uh, thither was there, but it wasn't.
24:37But, hither was.
24:38Hither.
24:39Hither, exactly.
24:39Hither and dither.
24:41Hither and dither for sixes.

25:55Andy? Seven. Seven, Dave? Seven. Andy? Ravines. Ravines. I also have ravines. Well done. Now then, John. Another seven out
26:07there, maybe something you could have in some ravines. You could take your sarnies. You might need your sarnies if
26:14you get stuck in a ravine.
26:16Fifty-eight to thirty-four. Now then, Susie, we focus on you for your origins of words. Speak to us.
26:24We're going to talk about words for silliness in English, because we all have our silly moments. And silly itself
26:29originally meant happy or blessed. It had a very different meaning to the one's day.
26:34And it went on to mean happy in a way that simpletons can be, in other words, a sort of
26:39innocent happiness, and hence the shift eventually to foolishness.
26:43A fool, meanwhile, was a tongue-wagger or a windbag, and that comes from the Latin follis, meaning talking too
26:49much. And fond and fun actually have the same root.
26:53To be nice also had a very different meaning a long time ago. It meant to be foolish or ignorant.
26:58It comes from the Latin meaning not knowing.
27:00And naughty meant worth nought. In other words, it was someone so foolish that they were good for nothing.
27:07And someone only slightly silly, usually through love, was once said to be spooning, because tradition once had that sweethearts
27:13would exchange spoons with each other with pretty engravings of lovers' hands.
27:19So if you were spooning, you would look a bit dotty, but for all the right reasons.
27:22And silliness is sometimes seen as a bit eccentric, and that's a word that means not in the centre, in
27:28other words, offbeat.
27:30Or Zaini. And in its early days, Zaini, with an I, Z-A-N-I, was a nickname in Venice
27:35for a man called Gianni, or Giovanni.
27:37And it became a nickname applied to porters, or servants, much as Biddy used to be a nickname for female
27:43servants, called Bridget.
27:44And the move to wackiness came when, in Italian comedy, Zaini was applied to the character of a servant who
27:49was always clowning around on stage.
27:52And wacky means acting as if you've had a whack to the head, also known as your nut, hence our
27:57calling someone silly or crazy, a bit nutty, or a nutcase.
28:00And finally, silliness and madness have often been viewed together.
28:04And to say someone is round the bend may go back to Victorian hospitals, when the mental asylum was hidden
28:09away from view, so round the bend at the end of a very long drive.
28:13So clever.
28:15So clever.
28:16I'm not me.
28:21So clever.
28:22It's brilliant stuff.
