00:31Good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown Studio.
00:34Now, before we begin, I'd like to say a big hello to one of our most treasured viewers,
00:39none other than Mrs. J.M. Bryant of Akideminster in Worcestershire,
00:44who's 100 years old, and her motto, Rachel, is you're never too old to learn.
00:49So, well done, and we want to have you as our guest in the studio
00:53while sitting at home for many, many years to come.
00:57Mrs. J.M. Bryant, wonderful stuff.
00:59And talking about one being never too old to learn, what about fishing?
01:04I've never gone fishing, but apparently we're entering the National Fishing Month
01:07right up to the end of August, and apparently this is to encourage families and so forth
01:11to dig out their rod and nets and to go fishing.
01:14It's not something that's ever appealed to me, but it's getting very technical nowadays, you know, Rachel.
01:19You can buy a drone, a drone that hovers over the lake looking for the biggest fish,
01:25and it then lowers a line with bait on it.
01:27Really?
01:28That's not very sporting, is it?
01:29And then it lifts it up?
01:31I don't know.
01:32That's as far as I got.
01:33I thought, leave them alone.
01:36Have you ever been fishing?
01:37No.
01:38It's not something that's ever appealed, but I know some people that do like it.
01:41So there must be something in it.
01:43Shall we see what Liam, how he's feeling today after that rather disappointing adventure yesterday?
01:49His lowest score, so he's clearly declining.
01:53Yeah, Dave was a great player and he gave me a sweat, and shame on me.
01:58Shame on you.
01:59We're going to pour shame on you, Liam Maloney.
02:01Anyway, it's great having you back, and you've got five wins, going for six.
02:05Well done.
02:06We're enjoying your company.
02:08You're joined now by somebody who wants to spoil your fun, which is Jyoti Madlani from Orpington in Kent,
02:16where she's a training advisor, enjoys traveling, went skydiving in New Zealand,
02:19and you once dressed up as a penguin and danced to One Direction.
02:23Yeah.
02:24Exciting girl.
02:26That's probably one of my highlights.
02:29Well, let's see if you're going to get another one today.
02:31Let's have a big round of applause for Jyoti and Liam Maloney.
02:38And over in the corner of, of course, Susie, as ever, and we welcome back Michael Burke,
02:43wonderful newsman, newsreader, journalist, many years standing.
02:47Great to have you back.
02:48Great to have you back.
02:49Now, Liam, take us away.
02:50Let's have a letters game, shall we?
02:52Hi, Rachel.
02:52Hi, Liam.
02:53Can I have a consonant, please?
02:54You can, thank you.

03:27And a vowel.
03:28And a vowel, please.
03:57Well, Liam. Seven. Jotty. Only a six. And that six? Cadets. Cadets, Liam. Castled. Yeah, it's a move in chess.
04:11When you transfer the king from its original square, two squares along the back rank towards a rook on the
04:15corner square.
04:16All right. And what else in the corner? Michael, Susie? Well, I shall proudly own it, though I've actually seen
04:23Susie write it down, is the truth of the matter. I cheated Citadel. Citadel, talking about castles. Very good. Yeah,
04:30you can put the S on and make it an eight, which is great. And an anagram of that is
04:34dialects. Thank you very much. Well done. Seven points to Liam. And now we turn to Jotty for a letters
04:41game. Jotty. Hi, Rachel. Hi, Jotty. Can I have a consonant, please?

05:48Eight.
05:49Jody.
05:49A drainer.
05:52Liam.
05:52Ordainer.
05:54Well, you can tell that we didn't risk that one ourselves, but I think Liam is going
05:58to be in luck.
05:59He is, it's specified.
06:00Very well done.
06:01Bravo.
06:04A strong eight there.
06:05Well done.
06:06And the corner.
06:07Anything in the corner?
06:08A miserable six.
06:10Ravine.
06:11All right, a ravine.
06:13And Susie?
06:14You can put the D on it, actually, and have a ravined valley, for example.
06:18Yep, the stair is an adjective, but Ordainer is absolutely brilliant.
06:21All right.
06:22So, Liam, it's time for numbers.
06:25One from the top, and any other five, please, Rachel.
06:29Thank you, Liam.
06:29One large and five a little coming up.
06:31And the first numbers game of today is six, two, ten, seven, one, and seventy-five.

07:35Yep.
07:3725 plays Jotty's 10.
07:4025 to 10 is returned to a teatime teaser, which is a verb, pilt.
07:46And the clue, commercially speaking, it's gone before you know it.
07:50Commercially speaking, it's gone before you know it.
08:07Welcome back.
08:08I left you with the clue.
08:09Commercially speaking, it's gone before you know it.
08:11And the answer is blipvert, one word.
08:16Excuse me?
08:18I knew you wouldn't approve of this one.
08:20It's one of the most recent blends that we have, which is when you put two words together.
08:25I quite like it.
08:26A blipvert is a TV advert that only lasts a very few seconds.
08:30And it enters your subconscious.
08:32Oh, it's one of those subliminal.
08:34Yep.
08:35Yeah, sneaky jobs.
08:36There's no stopping them, is there?
08:38Oh, sorry, Channel 4.
08:41Moving swiftly on.
08:4325 to 10.
08:44And Jotty, it's your letters game.

10:04Sorry.
10:04All right.
10:05What have we got?
10:06Michael, Susie?

10:10Ankles.
10:11Oh, ankles?
10:12I keep doing that.
10:13I keep doing that.
10:14And actually, you can take it even one letter further and put an R on, as well as an SBM,
10:19so rankles you can have.
10:21You got most of it, Michael, that's fair.
10:23Yeah, exactly.
10:26And Arsenal is also there, I'm pleased to say.
10:29That's their for seven.

11:46Yep. Well done. Any advances on motives? No, I was, I was trying to, I thought there's auto there. I
11:53thought there must be a long word with auto at the beginning, but I couldn't get it, so I settled
11:58for tomes. Tomes. As in tomes. Yep, yep.
12:01Yep. There is something with an auto there. It will get you to eight. It's automise, which is exactly the
12:08same as automate, really, in its meaning. Okay. Automise. Automise. Thank you very much. So, it's numbers time. Now, Jotty,
12:16your first numbers game.
12:17Um, can I please have one large and five small, please? You can indeed, thank you, Jotty. One large, five
12:22little ones coming up, and this time, the little ones are four, one, four, three, and five, and the big

13:13Um, so, three plus four is seven.
13:15Yes.
13:16Times by 75 is five to five.
13:20Times by 75, five to five.
13:24Is that right?

13:47Yeah, the four, perfect. Five, three, six.
13:49Grisly done. Well done, Liam.
13:52Very good.
13:54So, that's, um, 48 to Jotty's 17.
13:57As we turn to Michael, and Michael, the newsroom.
14:01Over a long time, I guess you've seen some strange and unhappy things.
14:05Some funny things, perhaps.
14:06Well, yeah, um, all those things.
14:08Uh, being a newscaster, it's, um, it doesn't really take much.
14:12It's only reading out loud, really, isn't it?
14:14I mean, it's the only job I can think of.
14:16The possible exception of being a junior government minister that requires no talent or training at all.
14:22You've just got to remember a few things.
14:24One of the things you've got to remember is not to get drunk.
14:26Um, an awful lot of my colleagues of yesteryear, and one or two of the current ones, um, uh, sometimes
14:33forget that iron rule.
14:35And the most celebrated occasion, uh, happened to a chap that older viewers might remember called Peter Woods.
14:41On this one occasion, he was doing something on BBC Two, one of those little ones that are edited by
14:46relatively junior members.
14:48And perhaps, uh, that was why he thought it was perfectly okay to, uh, go off to some, uh, leaving
14:53do and get what my sons would call bladdered.
14:56Um, and by the time, uh, anybody realized that he was actually extremely drunk, uh, it was too late.
15:02He was already on the air, and you could hear the thunder of hooves as the senior editorial people ran
15:07through the television center, packed into the gallery.
15:09Would he make it to the end of the bulletin?
15:11Oh.
15:11And it, for a time, it did seem as though he might.
15:14It lent him that kind of portentousness that, uh, newscasters go for, until he reached the penultimate item in the
15:20bulletin, uh, which shipwrecked him.
15:22And it was about, uh, the trade figures.
15:25I've seen this so many times, I can do it. I'll do it as quickly as I can.
15:29Britain's trade slipped further into the red last month.
15:32The gap between what we imported, what we exported, grew to four hundred, forty-four.
15:40Four hundred, uh, four, four.
15:43And this went on for a long time.
15:45Four.
15:46And then he just gave up.
15:48And he looked into the screen and said, do you know, they're awfully bad.
15:54At which point, the screen went black.
15:57And he went into retirement, poor child.
15:59Yeah, really.
16:00Never appeared again.
16:01Poor man, but that was that.
16:02Yeah.
16:03Poor old, Mr. Woods.
16:04I feel bad about that.
16:06Now, where are we?
16:06Forty-eight plays Jotty's at 17.
16:08Where should we go?
16:10Should we go to you, Liam, for a letters game?
16:12Consonant, please, Rachel.

17:26Now, what else? Any advances?
17:29Hmm, aerosols in there, isn't it?
17:30Yeah, very good.
17:31That's good.
17:32That's another really good seven and loaders just to go with reloads.
17:35So quite a few sevens.
17:36Thank you very much.
17:37So, Liam, 55. Jotty on 24.
17:40Jotty, letters time for you.

18:54Very nice.
18:54Gutters and mutters.
18:56What else have we got there, Michael?
18:58Very poor, it's only six, but there was an old newspaper term, Stumer, S-T-U-M-E-R.
19:05Yes.
19:06I know you'd say yes in that interrogatory way, because I can't remember what it means.
19:11It's in.
19:11It's in the dictionary.
19:12It can mean either a failure, as in a flop, or a worthless check or counterfeit coin.
19:19Oh, right.
19:20Very good.
19:20Stumer.
19:21Well, I'm bashed.
19:22All right.

20:35What? I've gone wrong.
20:37It was bound to happen.
20:41I've put a lot of money on you down at the book.
20:43Shame on you.
20:48Alright, we'll have to turn to Rachel.
20:51Come on Rachel.
20:52Show him how it's done.
20:53It was possible. If you say 50 over 5 is 10,

21:03and times it by 8, 824.
21:05Well done.
21:08Well done.
21:09Is it all clear now?

21:14Once Liam recovers.
21:16It's Cup stays.
21:18And the clue, he's gentle and mild-mannered.
21:20So what's new, Mr. Jones?
21:22He's gentle and mild-mannered.
21:24So what's new, Mr. Jones?
21:26And the answer is Pussycat.
21:51Pussycat.
21:52What?
21:53It's a Tom Jones song.
21:54What's new Pussycat?
21:55Of course.
21:57There was a film, too.
21:58What's that?
21:58And he sang the soundtrack.
22:01Anyway, there we are.
22:0262 to 31.

23:11Liam?
23:11I'll stick with a seven as well.
23:13Alright.
23:14Jotty?
23:15Planted.
23:16And Liam?
23:17Puterman.
23:18Right.
23:19What do you think about that, Susie?
23:21It is absolutely fine.
23:23It's an anatomical term and it's the outer part of the nucleus of the brain.
23:30Very good.
23:31Michael, any improvements there?
23:33No.
23:34Plumed was the best I could get.
23:36Okay.
23:37Susie?
23:37Good.
23:37Planted for me as well, like Peterman.

24:23Yeah.
24:43Cheers.
24:44Absolutelygh.
24:45Liam?
24:46Seven.
24:46A seven, Jotty?
24:48A seven as well.
24:49Mm-hmm.
24:49Liam?
24:50Heating.
24:51Northern Jotty?
24:52I've got the same as well.
24:54There we go.
24:54Are we happy with that, Liam?
24:55Yeah, perfect.
24:57And in the corner, Michael?
24:59Hexing?
25:00Hex?
25:00I'm not quite sure what hex is.
25:02It's kind of putting a spell on it, isn't it?
25:04Exactly, enriching somebody.
25:05Putting the hex on somebody, yeah.
25:07Horrible.
25:08You can frighten children by doing that.
25:10Susie?
25:11Heating for me as well.
25:12That's the one seven that seem to leap out.
25:14Thank you very much indeed.
25:1676 to 45.
25:18And now, Susie, we're back with you and your wonderful Origins of Words.
25:24Sharpen your pencils at home.
25:26Well, English, particularly English dialect, is chock full of expressions for gossipers
25:32and endless chatterers.
25:34There must be something about the British personality that means we love a good gossip.
25:38So, across the UK, you might hear babbler, bagpipe, blatteroon, blatterer, ear basher,
25:43jaw smith, jangleress.
25:45Hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of words for a gosper.
25:47And, of course, there is a chatterbox, which is pretty much standard up and down the UK.
25:51And Hugh Dixon emailed in to ask me where that comes from.
25:55And you'd think it would simply refer to the mouth being a box and the chatter that comes out of
25:59it.
25:59But, in fact, there were older words like clap dish and clack dish, which it's probably related to.
26:06And they were dishes or tins that were used by beggars, really, hundreds of years ago.
26:12They would be shaken very loudly and used to collect money.
26:17So, as they went along, they would rattle their clack dish or their classer dish and hope to be given
26:21some donations.
26:23And the idea was probably that a chatterbox speaks as loudly and persistently as someone shaking a tin full of
26:29coins.
26:30But a chatterbox can, of course, be a gossip.
26:33And regularly, as well, know that one of my favourite word stories has always been that very word.
26:37Because it originated as God-sib or God-sibling, which was an older term for a godparent.
26:43And for some reason, godparents, perhaps standing around the bed of a newborn child and the mother, were notorious chatterboxes.
26:50They would spend the day there, passing the time of day, and simply gossiping.
26:55And so, God-sib eventually became gossip over time.
26:58But another word that's surprisingly linked to the same or similar reputation is compare.
27:04And the compare today, of course, is an organiser or a director of events, introducing performers, providing the commentary between
27:10acts.
27:11Well, originally, a compare was a godfather in relation to the godmother.
27:15Com meaning with, and pair, of course, meaning father.
27:18And the term broadened to mean a male comrade, a friend, or, again, a gossip.
27:23Which just goes to show that, contrary to popular opinion, men can be gossipers, too.
27:28Very good, Susie.
27:31Very good.
27:34You can put it down.
27:3576 and 45.
27:38Liam's there, OK.
27:40Jotty, what are we going to do?
27:42A consonant, please.
27:44Thank you, Jotty.

27:46And another one, please.

28:50And Liam.

28:53Absolutely fine.
28:54We talk about first graders, don't we?
28:55For example, in American schools, yep, it's in the dictionary.
28:59Personal thing that grades, wield machine for levelling the ground or somebody in particular.

29:05Very good.

30:30I've got an eight, Jotty.
30:31I've got an eight as well.
30:33Right.
30:34Liam.
30:34Woodsman.
30:35Jotty.
30:36I've got the same.
30:38Very good.
30:39There we go.
30:40Brilliant.
30:40Woodsman.
30:41Hey.
30:44Now, what else have we got?
30:46Michael?
30:46Susie?
30:46Oh, I'm trading a long way back.
30:48Wooden, I'd got.
30:50Wooden, Susie?
30:51There's a few sevens.
30:52Meadows, Wound, Demons with the A.E.
30:55But Woodsman, hats off.
30:56Really good.
30:57Yeah, very good.
30:58Very good.
30:5991.
31:0091.
31:01Still shy of 100 there, Liam.
31:02And 60 for Jotty as we go into numbers.
31:06Jotty's numbers game.
31:08Can I please have two from the top and four small, please?
31:11You can indeed.
31:12Thank you, Jotty.
31:13And the pressure's really on Liam.
31:14Otherwise, Nick's going to be really disappointed.
31:16All right, the last numbers game today is 1, 7, 6, and 10.
31:22And the large two, 150.
31:24And the target, 554.
31:275, 5, 4.
32:005, 5, 5, 4.
32:02And Liam?
32:03Yeah, 554.
32:05Let's start with Jotty.
32:06So 10 times 6 is 600.
32:09Sorry, 100, sorry.
32:11100 times 6.
32:13Yeah, sorry.
32:13600.
32:14Take away the 50.
32:16550.
32:17And then 10 minus 7 is 3.
32:20Add the 1 equals 4.
32:21And then add that on.
32:22Very well done.
32:235, 5, 4.
32:24Thank you, Liam.
32:25I said 100 minus 1 is 99.
32:2799.
32:28Times 6.
32:29Is 594.
32:3150 take away 10 is 40.
32:33Yeah.
32:34And subtract 40.
32:35Lovely.
32:355, 5, 4.
32:37Well done.
32:38Well done, both of you.
32:42So Liam's through the 100 mark, then 101 to Jotty's very commendable 70 as we turn to the final round,
32:49conundrum time.
32:50So, fingers on buzzers, let's reveal that countdown conundrum.
33:19Liam.
33:21Is it scheduled?
33:23Scheduled.
33:23Scheduled.
33:24Let's see whether you're right.
33:26There we go.
33:30Well done, ladies.
33:33111.
33:34Gaining strength.
33:36Jotty, you did brilliantly well against a great player.
33:4070 points.
33:41That's, I think, the highest score that any of his competitors, as it were, have scored since he's been here.
33:47So that's tremendous.
33:47So back to Orpington with you, with your goodie bag.
33:51And we shall look forward to seeing Liam tomorrow.
33:53Glad to see you back on a little bit stronger form there, Liam.
33:57All right.
33:57We shall see you tomorrow.
33:58I'm doing my best for you, Nick.
34:03See you tomorrow, Michael, Susie, and Rachel, of course.
34:08I told you there's a market for your motivational speaking.
34:10We shall see you tomorrow, isn't it?
34:40From the south of France to the famous Portobello Road Market in London, whose French collection will sell best at
34:47four?
34:48Tricky questions on the way next.
34:50Fifteen will become one in about five minutes.
