00:31Good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown studio on the day 80 years ago, way back in 1934, that one
00:37of the great music managers was born. Born in Liverpool. And it was none other than the great, late Brian
00:45Epstein. My word, what a mark he made on the world of popular music because it was he who discovered,
00:52of course, in the cavern the four lads that became known as the Beatles. But it wasn't just the Beatles,
00:57Rachel. Oh no.
00:58He had a good eye for talent. Jerry and the Pacemakers, Billy J. Kramer and, of course, Scylla Black. And
01:04he died tragically at the young age, a very young age, back in 1967. But the Fab Four, of course,
01:13went on to make music history extraordinary.
01:16Now, what about you? Have you got an eye for a bit of talent?
01:19Well, never mind me. I think we can't talk about record producers without talking about Marcel Stelman.
01:24Of course.
01:24Because obviously you know, but our viewers might not know, that the person that brought this programme to England was
01:28a record producer. He's worked with people like Engelbert Humperdinkt and Shirley Bassey and even Sinatra.
01:33So we've got one degree of separation from Sinatra, which is quite nice.
01:35Absolutely. And Marcel and his wife, Jeannie, such a lovely couple. Lovely couple. We love them.
01:41Now, Rachel, who have we got? We've got Paul Worsley back again. Three wins under his belt. Of course, dad
01:47to Jack, who was champion back in 2012.
01:50And Paul's here again. Used to be a keen chess player. And he's a poker player. And I think he
01:55won £7,000 on there.
01:57That's in a tournament back in April, yes, in Liverpool. So I finished first out of £114, I think it
02:04was.
02:04Fantastic. Give you a taste for it.
02:06Yes, it is. I still see myself as a recreational player. But of course, you know, to win a bit
02:09of money as well, it's a nice bonus.
02:11You don't go off to Las Vegas and play in the...
02:13I have been to Vegas, actually, yes.
02:15How did you get on?
02:15Um, well, I was winning money, but my wife and daughter were spending it faster than I could win it.
02:21That's the old story.
02:21Probably wasn't profitable there.
02:23All right. Paul, you're joined today by Kieran O'Driscoll. Hails from Dublin, originally from County Tipperary.
02:28Carrick on Shore, County Tipperary.
02:30Carrick on Shore, the River Shore there. Works as a language tutor and interpreter. So which languages you teach?
02:36I teach English as a foreign language to Brazilian students in a small private language school in Dublin, Nick. And
02:42I also teach some French.
02:44OK. Because you took a doctorate in French, I think.
02:46I did French to English Literary Translation with Jules Verne as a point of interest.
02:52Excellent. I've got a strange note that our research department have dragged out of you.
02:57Oh, no.
02:57I don't know whether it was willingly or unwillingly. You once found sleepwalking half naked around your university campus.
03:04Night out, was it?
03:05It wasn't a night out, actually. It was in broad daylight.
03:09Oh, was it?
03:09Yes.
03:10I see. Sleepwalking in the day.
03:12Mm-hmm.
03:12I see. Student days. There we go.
03:14Well, let's have a big round of applause for Paul and Kieran O'Driscoll.
03:23And Susie Dent, of course, over in the corner, looking forward to a peaceful weekend, I trust.
03:27Yep.
03:27But before that happens, we're going to have to deal with the wonderful Deborah Meaden, entrepreneur, Dragon's Den Dragon.
03:33And behind that stern exterior, one of the nicest people I've ever met.
03:39She's an absolutely fabulous lady.
03:41Welcome to Countdown, Deborah.
03:44Welcome to Countdown.
03:44I'm glad to be here.

12:26Okay, an agouti. There goes another agouti.
12:29Right, 38 to 31. Paul in the lead, and we're back with the numbers. Kieran?
12:34Oh, Rachel, can I have one large and only five small, please?
12:37Of course you can. Thank you, Kieran. One large one, five small ones coming up for you.
12:42And for this round, they are three, eight, two, seven, six, and the large one, 75.
12:51And the target, 968.
12:54968.
13:26968.
13:26Well, Kieran?
13:27968.
13:28And Paul?
13:30968.
13:30Thank you. So, Kieran?
13:327 plus 6 equals 13.
13:34Yep.
13:36Multiplied by 75 equals 975.
13:39It does.
13:40Let me see.
13:413 minus 2 equals 1.
13:44Take the 1 from the 8 for 7.
13:46Yes.
13:47And take the 7 from the 975 for 968.
13:50Perfect. 968. Well done.
13:52Well done.
13:52And Paul?
13:53Essentially the same, but I said 8 plus 2 plus 3 for 13.
13:58So you've swapped them around.
13:59And multiply by 75 and then subtract 7.
14:01Yes.
14:02Well done.
14:03Well done both of you.
14:04Well done.
14:06So 48 plays Kieran's 41 as we turn to Deborah.
14:11And Deborah, you're a great champion of animal rights and so forth.
14:16You pretty much live in your own personal menagerie.
14:19I've got a little list here that says you live with husband Paul.
14:23I'm not suggesting he's a part of the menagerie.
14:25Cat, 3 dogs, 5 horses, 11 chickens, 4 ducks, Gloucester Ospot pigs, 13 micro pigs, guinea
14:32fowl and 3 angry geese.
14:353 very angry geese.
14:36So you're an animal person.
14:38I like that.
14:38And I think you've got a bit of a story to tell us about animals.
14:41Well, I have.
14:42I mean, I spent some time traveling with the World Society of Protection of Animals, so the
14:46WSPA.
14:47And they're involved in making sure that there isn't endangered, trade in endangered species.
14:53So they asked me if I'd like to go along to border control to see what border control
14:56do.
14:58And I met Toffee the dog, who's this wonderful little spaniel.
15:01And they said, well, why don't you try it?
15:03So they packed me up with a suitcase, put some ivory in the middle of a suitcase, packed
15:07a load of smelly clothes around it, put me in the middle of a massive crowd of people,
15:12but general public who were coming through border, and let me walk through.
15:16And little Toffee, sweet little thing, comes in front of me, sits down and wags her chair,
15:20little bright eyes.
15:20And I, you know, and she spotted me.
15:22She picked me out.
15:24Anyway, they took me to one side and gave me the whole thing.
15:27So these two guys came over and they say, Madam, can we escort you over?
15:30And they take me over and they unpack the suitcase and they find the ivory.
15:33So we're going through the whole thing.
15:35Of course, we're in public.
15:36And I look round and there's about 30 people going, isn't that that woman of Dragon's Den
15:42smuggling ivory?
15:45So we had, we explained.
15:47We explained.
15:48What a great story.
15:49They didn't arrest me.
15:49But such a sense of smell, this little spaniel.
15:52Amazing.
15:53Absolutely amazing.
15:54I wouldn't, it's, I know the clothes were smelly and they were intentionally distracting,
15:59you know, her, but she absolutely got it.
16:01Tell me this.
16:02So that dog trained to sniff out ivory smugglers, but also drugs of different types.
16:08Absolutely.
16:09They are extraordinary.
16:10And they also, of course, get a lot of counterfeit product.
16:12I'm not sure how dog sniffers can sniff that out, but I guess perfumes and things, you know,
16:16they, they, they, these dogs are, they've got two of them and they're amazing little things.
16:19Yeah.
16:20Yeah.
16:20Thank you very much, Deborah.
16:22Now, Paul, letters came.
16:24Okay.
16:24Okay.
16:25Can I start with a consonant, please?
16:27Thank you, Paul.

17:03All right.
17:05I'll say to you then let's get Street encore.
17:08Okay.
17:11Okay.
17:15All right.
17:16All right.
17:20Tone of the vowel.
17:21All right.
17:30We have the vowel to the vowel.
17:32которую, because we're rolling.
17:32Identifying tolerance to much sense of that with M.
17:32All right.
17:32Step in.
17:33Can we try this wisdom?
17:34Well, Paul. Eight. And Kieran? A risky eight. All right. Paul. Distance. Distance and Kieran? Insected. Insected. Okay. Not there,
17:51I'm afraid, Kieran. Just insect as a noun. Sorry. No problem.
17:54Thank you, Susan. Good luck. Good luck. 56 now plays 41, but in the corner, what else have we got
18:00there? Susie? Otherwise, lots of sevens, Nick. Decant, standy, instead, stained. Quite a few. Very good. 56 to 41. Paul

18:50And here's the countdown clock.
18:52Here we go.
19:23Kieran?
19:24A six.
19:24A six, Paul?
19:25A six.
19:26Kieran?
19:27Mine is lasing.
19:29Lasing.
19:29Paul?
19:30Also lasing.
19:31You're both lasing.
19:34Lasing.
19:34And in the corner, no lasing over there, I hope.
19:36Well, very similar, but lasing.
19:39Lasing.
19:40Yes.
19:40All right.
19:41Susie?
19:41We stopped at six.
19:42Very good.
19:43Lasing and lasing.
19:4562, please.
19:4647.
19:46Now then, numbers.
19:48One for Paul.
19:50Can I have another inverted T, please?
19:52You can indeed.
19:52Thank you, Paul.
19:53Another one from the top.
19:54And another five small ones coming up.
19:56And this time, they are four, three, five.
20:01Another four, eight, and the large one, 50.
20:05And your target, 132.
20:07One, three, two.
20:09.
20:10.
20:10.
20:10.
20:39Yes, Paul?
20:44I said 4 divided by 4 is 1, add that onto the 5, 6, subtract the 6 from the 50,
20:54and multiply
20:56by 3.
20:56Perfect, 132.
20:58And Kieran?
20:59Slightly differently, I said 50 multiplied by 3 is 150, 5 multiplied by 4 equals 20, 8
21:09divided by the other 4 equals 2.
21:1220 minus the 2 equals 18.
21:14Uh-huh.
21:14150 minus 18 is 132.
21:17Perfect, well done.
21:18Very good.
21:19Very good.
21:21So, still well in touch there, Kieran, 57 to Paul's 72, as we go into a tea time teaser,
21:26which is to a point.
21:28And the clue, the answer to this points to a drink.
21:31The answer to this points to a drink.
21:49Welcome back.
21:50I left you with the clue, the answer to this points to a drink, and the answer is potation.
21:56Potation.
21:56So, if something's potable, it's drinkable, isn't it?
22:00It is.
22:00It comes from the Latin potare, to drink.
22:02Yeah.
22:03Some nice examples of potation here.
22:04It can also mean a drinking bout, so you can imagine it being used today.
22:08As a nice example, he became somewhat bloated in middle age, and his potations did not improve
22:13his appearance.
22:14Very good.
22:15I like that one.
22:15Is it potable?
22:17Yeah.
22:17Very good.
22:1772 plays, 57, and we turn now to Kieran, for a letters game.
22:22Can I start with the consonant, please, Rachel?
22:25Thank you, Kieran.
22:26M.

22:30Another consonant.

22:39E.
22:40Another vowel.
22:42O.
22:42A third vowel.
22:45E.
22:46A consonant.
22:49S.
22:50And a final consonant.
22:53And a final consonant.
22:56And a final C.
22:56Standby.
22:57.
23:28Kieran.
23:29Six.
23:30Yes, Paul.
23:31Six also.
23:32And Kieran, six.
23:34Missed.
23:35Thank you, Paul.
23:36I actually went for most.
23:39Very good.
23:40Yep, same as mossy.
23:41Absolutely fine.
23:42And what news from the corner there?
23:44Susie, Deborah?
23:45Missed.
23:46Missed.
23:47Yep.
23:47This one a little bit like Deborah's name, Meads, M-E-E-D-S.
23:52And a mead in the olden days was a person's deserved share of praise.
23:55So you must get from her some mead of approbation, as a example.
24:00Really?
24:00I've not come across that before.
24:0178 plays 63.
24:03Now then, Paul, how about a letters game from you?
24:06Can I start this round with a consonant, please?
24:09Thank you, Paul.
24:10N.
24:11And another?
24:13W.
24:15And another?
24:17T.
24:19And can I have a vowel, please?
24:22A.
24:23Another vowel.
24:25O.
24:26And another vowel.
24:29E.
24:31A consonant.
24:33L.
24:35A consonant.
24:37X.
24:39And finish with a vowel, please.
24:40And finish with an O.
24:42And the clock starts now.
25:13And the clock starts now.
25:15Paul? A six. And Kieran? Just a five. And your five? Extol. Extol. And Paul? Etalon. An etalon. Yes, good
25:26countdown word, that one. It's a term from physics, it's something that produces interfering light beams. An etalon. Etalon. Or
25:34a French stallion? Yes. Interestingly. Any more? Can't beat etalon, I think that's quite a word. Very good. Anything else?
25:42Nout for four.
25:42It's quite appropriate. Nout indeed. Now then, Susie. It's that time, Susie. Yes, it is that time. Your origins of
25:51words. Well, if you have been watching recently, I've been taking some of the older words that you won't find
25:57in a current English dictionary, but ones that I think are quite lovely, which made me smile. A lot of
26:05them are taken from dictionaries which have sort of older words in them or historical dictionaries. Chambers is one example.
26:11So these are words which exist for a particular concept, even if you thought you didn't need one. The first
26:20is agilast, who's somebody who never laughs.
26:25An angel's share is the amount of spirit lost in a cask through evaporation. So I can imagine that would
26:31be a good excuse for a gin bottle at home. An angel's share.
26:34Batology is the study of brambles.
26:38Bublubberd, I like this one, is to be disfigured by weeping.

31:26And Kieran, final numbers game for you.
31:29Could I have one from the top and any five small ones, please, Rachel?
31:32Of course.
31:33Thank you, Kieran.
31:33One large one, five little ones for the final time this week.
31:37And this selection is seven, three, ten, six, three, and the large one, one hundred.

32:37Perfect.
32:37Well done.
32:39And Paul?
32:40I went 3 times 6 is 18.
32:43And that onto the 100.

32:47The other 3, perfect.
32:49Good results.
32:52So Paul once again is plowed through 108 to Kieran's very commendable 80 points as we go into the final
33:00round.
