00:00Thank you very much.
00:31Good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown Studio, the Words and Numbers Game.
00:37Now, yesterday, indeed last week, we chatted about International Literacy Week, and this
00:43week we're going to talk about numbers.
00:45It's the start of Know Your Numbers Week, and before Rachel gets all excited about it, it's
00:50not those sort of numbers, it's about blood pressure, because Blood Pressure UK has designated
00:56this as being Know Your Numbers Week, and knowing your blood pressure numbers, and keeping
01:00an eye on your blood pressure, of course, is vitally important.
01:04I mean, for instance, did you know that something like 125,000 adults, it says here, have a heart
01:11attack or a stroke because of high blood pressure each year?
01:14And it's a silent thing.
01:16You don't know you've got high blood pressure.
01:18But, you know, young people like you should just keep an eye on these things.
01:22I guess when you go and see the doctor, if you ever do, he'll take your blood pressure.
01:26But certainly...
01:27Well, I have had my heart checked as well, because young people, there's a charity called
01:30Cry, Cardiac Risk in the Young, and you can just go along and get a free heart check, because
01:34you never know if you've got something underlying wrong.
01:36I saw him.
01:37I was walking in London recently, and there was this big bridge walk, and hundreds and
01:40hundreds of people wearing Cry t-shirts with the young people that they've lost, and you
01:44don't know until it's too late, often.
01:45So you can just go along and get your heart checked, whatever age you are.
01:48Indeed.
01:48And actually, during this week, there will be blood pressure stations all over the country.
01:53There we are.
01:54So good.
01:54Anyway, I'm glad you had it done.
01:56I'm glad they found your heart.
01:57Now that who have we got here with us today?
02:00We've got...
02:00I'm sorry.
02:01You've got a big soft heart.
02:03I know you have.
02:03Matty Artel's back, student from Chester.
02:05Five wins under your belt.
02:06Well done.
02:07Going for six.
02:08Slowly but surely climbing that.
02:10That ladder to Octo-Champdom.
02:12But not if Wayne McSorley's got anything to do with it.
02:15Wayne is a stock and systems administrator from Bradford, loves watching sport, online
02:20scabble, and beekeeping.
02:22Now, I'm delighted to hear about this, because I'm being drawn inexorably towards beekeeping.
02:28Are you keeping them at home or at work or where?
02:30It's at work.
02:31That's fantastic.
02:32How many hives have you got?
02:33I've got three at the moment.
02:34Really?
02:35We had one this time last year, now we're built up to three.
02:37In the middle of Bradford?
02:39Uh, yes.
02:39I think that's a great thing to do.
02:42Because they, I mean, it's not only a fascinating thing to do, it produces honey, but it's also
02:47good for the environment, I think, is it not?
02:49Yes, yeah, very good for the environment, yeah.
02:51Oh, that's brilliant.
02:52Let's have a big round of applause for the contender, Wayne McSorley, and our champ, Matty
02:58Artel.
03:01And over in the corner, of course, on this Monday afternoon, the wonderful Susie Dent, rested,
03:05I trust, after a lovely weekend.
03:07Yes, thank you.
03:08And we're joined once again by one of our favourite guests, the man of a thousand voices, John
03:13Cullshaw, comedian and impressionist.
03:15Welcome back, John.
03:16Great to be here.
03:17Sphygmanometer.
03:18That's, isn't that the device that's used to measure blood pressure?
03:21I've no idea.
03:22Yes, yes, sphygmanometer.
03:24Fantastic word.
03:24What a good word.
03:25I just wanted to say that word on countdown.
03:26I'm glad you did.
03:27It doesn't say that, it just says blood pressure monitor on mine.
03:30Ah, yes.
03:31But a sphygmanometer.
03:33Good word, isn't it?
03:33A sphygmanometer.
03:35Yeah.
03:36Up to a point, John.
03:38Anyway, let's see what's going to happen.
03:41Matty, come on then, let's have a letters game from you.

10:45You could migrate to Margate.
10:48Margate was there for seven.
10:49Yep.
10:49As was primate and ragtime.
10:52Yes.
10:53Quite a useful bunch of letters there.
10:54And just to say, the Margate is not along with a capital M.
10:56It's the deep-bodied greyish fish, which you'll find in the Western Atlantic.

12:05Matty? Seven. Seven. Wayne? I'll try a seven. All right. Matty? Fording. Fording and? Both of you? As in fording
12:14a river? Yes. All right. And John, Susie? Yeah, we had some rather good sevens as well. Foreign and ignored.
12:24Yep. We're there for seven in that clutch. Very good. Susie? I like fording. It means to cross a river
12:29or stream at a shallow place. Yes. To ford it.
12:32All right. 30 plays 21. Matty's still nine points in the lead there. And Wayne, it's numbers. Numbers time. Two
12:40large or four small, please, Rachel. You can. Thank you, Wayne, too, from the top. And four little ones. And
12:45this time, the numbers are seven, six. Another seven, eight, 25 and 50. Could be tricky. The target, 228. 228.
13:29Two, two, six. Not written down.
13:31Two away. Matty? 225. Not written down.
13:34Wayne?
13:35I had 50 plus six.
13:3850 plus six, 56.
13:40Times eight.
13:42Times by eight is 448.
13:46Sorry, I've gone wrong again.
13:48So, Matty?
13:49Seven over seven is one.
13:51Seven over seven is one.
13:53Add to the eight.
13:54Add to the eight, four, nine.
13:56And then multiply by 25.
13:57Multiply by 25, 225.
13:59Three away.
14:00Two, two, five, three away.
14:01Rachel, help us out here.
14:03It was slightly trickier than I thought it might be, so I'll have another look.
14:07Let's leave it with you for a second.
14:08So, 37 plays Wayne's 21.
14:10As we link now to the wonderful John Culshaw.
14:16With, I said a thousand voices.
14:18It's nearly a thousand.
14:20What are you going to talk to us about today?
14:21I've never really kept count.
14:22I loved those images over the summer of the planet Pluto.
14:27The New Horizons probe gave us these wonderful images of that beige planet with the familiar
14:33heart on the side of it at the far reaches of the solar system.
14:37Even the Hubble Space Telescope previously had only shown it as a fuzzy, indistinct blob.
14:41And it was fascinating to see it.
14:43And it took nine years to get there.
14:46This made me think of, if we were to take the countdown clock there, and if that was
14:51to represent the sun, we could work out from that and just get a sense of the scale of
14:56the solar system and how far away Pluto really is.
15:00So, that's about two meters across.
15:01If the countdown clock represented the sun, the first planet out, Mercury, would be the
15:07size of a peppercorn.
15:09And that would be, not just here or at the back of the studio, it would be 86 meters away.
15:16Next planet out, Venus, this would be about the size of a Malteser, 150 meters away.
15:22Earth, our own home planet, that would also be relatively the size of a Malteser, slightly
15:27bigger than Venus.
15:29That would be orbiting at a distance of 214 meters away.
15:35The kind of distance that Usain Bolt runs.
15:37Then we get out to our most interesting neighbor, Mars.
15:40This would be about the size of a Garden Pea, 321 meters away.
15:44Next, we reach the gas giant Jupiter, about the size of a football.
15:48That would be 1,114 meters away.
15:51So, we've gone over a kilometer by now.
15:54We continue.
15:56Saturn, the great gas giant with the wonderful ring system.
15:59This would be about the size of a big grapefruit.
16:01And we're really getting into some distance now, 2,036 meters away.
16:07We're almost at the end of the solar system.
16:09The next is Uranus, one of the ice giants, 4,114 meters away.
16:16That would be about the size of a snooker ball next to our clock there.
16:19And then we would find Neptune, about the size of a squash ball, slightly smaller than Uranus.
16:24We would find that 6,429 meters away.
16:30And then, finally, this is where we reach Pluto, orbiting our two-meter diameter countdown clock representing the sun.
16:39The planet Pluto would be about the size of a chocolate chip that you would find in a cookie.
16:45And the distance it would orbit the clock would be far away, somewhere in Withenshaw, from here.
16:52Really?
16:52And so, that would represent the scale of our solar system.
16:55If we wanted to carry on further beyond that to the nearest star next to our sun, Proxima Centauri,
17:02we would have to travel a distance of about four full widths of the planet Earth to get to our
17:10next nearest star.
17:12Brilliant.
17:12Lovely stuff.
17:13Well done, John.
17:15Very good.
17:19Now then, Rachel, 228, have you cracked it?
17:23Yeah, it was more tricky than it looked, I think.
17:24If you say 25 minus the two sevens for 11, times by 8 for 88, minus 50 for 38, and
17:33then times that by 6.
17:35Oh, well done.
17:36228.
17:36What a star.
17:38What a star.
17:41Very good.
17:4237 plays 21, and it's Matty's letters game.

25:40up for Mattie actually because I thought he might try it but it's not in
25:43what have we got in the corner yeah matter was there for another six
25:48mate years we've said but no sevens uncovered go around that round well
25:53done yeah so Maddie's had a little bit of a surge there 61 to Wayne's 53 as we
25:59turn back to Susie and her wonderful origins of words and today Susie well
26:05a few years ago a book came out called reading the OED by Amon Shea and it tells
26:12the tale of a man who set out to read the 20-volume historical dictionary
26:17wonderful dictionary that is the OED it's actually very funny and he gives you
26:22many of the words that he discovered along the way that took his fancy so
26:26although it doesn't sound like a great reading itself it is I recommend it what
26:30Amon Shea did was take a lot of it words that were considered slang a century ago
26:35so these language weeds that people thought completely unacceptable that
26:39shouldn't go into a dictionary and you'll see very much how language moves a lot of
26:44these words that were frowned upon and are part of our everyday language so awful
26:48was one of them belt as in a blow bootleg bouncer cahoots cheek as in he's got some
26:55cheek copper doctor as in to tamper with to doctor the evidence fake fan fluke fresh as
27:03in forward grouchy hunch jamboree jinx kids leery measly pub to root for somebody all of these
27:13were really considered as a part of these language weeds things that shouldn't be acceptable in
27:18standard English a century ago and now they are as current as anything so it raises a question as
27:24to whether some of our more recent slang additions including chillax which people
27:28love to hate will eventually be considered part of a standard language as with chillax I'm not sure I'm
27:33not sure I would ever use that word just because it's a little bit naff but you know stoke legit
27:39this all those words one one day maybe in a hundred years people will think yeah actually

29:15hmm yes an old term I probably sang and it's time for a thief or a safe breaker
29:21believe it not possibly a Peter was a trunk in thieves slang and it might be
29:25a reference to st. Peter who held the keys to the kingdom of heaven to the gate of
29:30heaven and a connection with that there is also two nines Nick as repayment is
29:36there and also pen tamarie which is a complicated zoological term it means
