00:31Good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown Studio on the very day that way back in 1976, 40 years ago,
00:37the launch of high-speed trains, the intercity train and the intercity 125 took place. Extraordinary. The day of the
00:46high-speed train had arrived.
00:47And, of course, nowadays, train travel is so popular. I think it's doubled, Rachel, over the last 10 or 15
00:55years. I once did a thing. Do you know that Room 101?
00:59Yeah.
01:00And you have to rant on about something. I ranted on about the amount of announcements on trains.
01:07How they go on and on and on about taking your luggage with you and the name of the... All
01:12this carry-on.
01:12Anyway, ever since then, I've been tormented by the guard who would turn up at the table and say, well,
01:17was that one all right?
01:19Yeah.
01:19There's a few things I could... They're always cold. And the one I used to commute from Essex to London...
01:24Yeah.
01:24...and that train is called the Vomit Comet on Friday night because everyone goes out in the city after work
01:30and then gets one of the last trains home.
01:32And you can imagine why it's been so named.
01:35How awful. They hose it down later on that night, I suppose.
01:39Yeah.
01:40Anyway, let's move on here. Rachel, we've got a Kenna Gukwo here from Kirk in Tillock near Glasgow.
01:47Had a great, great first game yesterday. Came through strongly with a score of 109 points.
01:53Tremendous performance. Well done. Well done. All right.
01:56And you're joined today by Jamie Smith. Jamie from Ipswich runs an outside catering business.
02:03Are you just in Ipswich or working in Ipswich or all around the county?
02:06All over Essex. All over the eastern counties, really.
02:08Oh, yeah.
02:08Sometimes going to London a little bit.
02:10Good for you. And you're a big cricket man.
02:12Love my cricket.
02:13Off for... You watch the Ashes in Australia.
02:15Yeah, I went in 2010. It was probably one of the best experiences of my life.
02:19Good for you.
02:19I went on my own. My best friend lives over there, so that was great.
02:23Oh, I know. And you also strolled across Sydney Harbour Bridge.
02:27Yes. Amazing.
02:28Good fun?
02:29Very good fun.
02:30High up.
02:31Good-looking city?
02:32Very good-looking city.
02:33I'll make it there one day.
02:35Anyway, there we are. Well, welcome, Jamie.
02:37And to Kenna. Welcome back. Let's have a big round of applause.
02:46And over the corner, of course, Susie.
02:49And once again, the wonderful Pam Ayers. Welcome back, Pam.
02:51Thank you, Nick.
02:52That was a cracking poem yesterday. More today.
02:55You're a great guest. You're a great guest.
02:56Now then, to Kenna. Let's get down to business. Letters game.

04:36We didn't have that one, actually.
04:37No, we didn't.
04:38We're impressed.
04:39We have, however, got an interesting one.
04:42We've got lumprey.
04:43Lumprey.
04:44Eel-like.
04:45And they've got those sucker mouths.
04:46Yeah, they've got a sucker, like a leech at the front end, I think, haven't they?

06:10Jamie.
06:11Coins.
06:13Ikenna.
06:13I've got corns, Q-O-R-N-S.
06:16I think it is capitalised, and yes, it's a trademark,
06:23so it's got a capital Q, I'm afraid, Ikenna.
06:25Sorry about that.
06:27Coin, architectural term, absolutely fine.
06:29External angle of a wall or building.
06:31Indeed.
06:32Yeah.
06:32Well done.
06:33And in the corner.
06:34Well, I know people pronounce this in all sorts of different ways,
06:38but I think it's quinoa.
06:40Yes.
06:40Is that right, Susie?
06:41Yes.
06:42And that's seven.
06:43If you don't have an S on it, which it's a mass noun,
06:46but using our food rule that you might like to order a couple of quinoas
06:49in a, it's stretching it a little bit, but in a restaurant possibly.
06:53All right.
06:5413, please.
06:56Ikenna's seven, and it's Ikenna's numbers game now.
07:00Right.
07:00Rachel, can I have one large and five small, please?
07:04You can indeed.
07:04Thank you, Ikenna.
07:05One big one, five little ones.
07:07And for the first time today, your numbers are eight, six, seven,
07:13eight, four, and 50.
07:16And the target, 327.

07:56Two away, Jamie.
07:57I have 327.
07:59327. Right, Jamie.
08:0150 times 6.
08:0350 times 6, 300.
08:05And I believe if you add all the others together, that's 27, which makes 327.
08:098 and... 8 and 4 and 7.
08:1327, perfect. Well done.
08:14Well done.
08:19Wow. Jamie on 23, Kenner 7, as we turn to our first teatime teaser, which is Dan Green.
08:26And the clue. Dan shouldn't cross when the lights are on green. He'll do this.
08:31Dan shouldn't cross when the lights are on green. He'll do this.
08:50Well, welcome back. I left with the clue, Dan shouldn't cross when the lights are on green.
08:54He'll do this.
08:56And the answer is in danger.
08:57He'll endanger himself and, more importantly, others in danger.
09:01So, 23 plays, Kenner 7. Jamie's on 23. And it's Jamie's letters game.

10:28Tofu. Not very, not very brilliant. But we've also got one that sounds absolutely horrible. We've got four guts. What's
10:37that?
10:37What's that? The upper part of the gut coming up towards the mouth. They are your four guts. We wish
10:45we hadn't said that. I do rather, yeah. There is a slightly nicer one. I'm not sure if you approve
10:50of this because it's quite new. But it's a seven to ego surf. Which is to look yourself up on
10:56a search engine and see what comes back. Ego surf.
11:0129 plays 13. And Ikenna, let us go.
11:06Rachel, can I have a consonant, please? Thank you, Ikenna. B. And another one?

13:39Ikema.
13:40648.
13:41648.
13:42So, Jamie.
13:44So, I've done the 100 plus the 8.
13:46108.
13:474 plus the 2.
13:494 plus 2 for the 6.
13:50Multiply that.
13:52648.
13:52And take away the 1.
13:54647.
13:54Lovely.
13:55Well done.
13:56Well done indeed.
14:00So, 46 to Ikema's 20, but there's still time, a lot of time, as we link to Pam.
14:06Now then, Pam, what have you got for us this afternoon?
14:09Well, I'm thinking about being a parent today, Nick, and I'm going to do one little poem and one slightly
14:15longer.
14:15And the first one is about how pleased I was when I had a baby son.
14:21My baby's eyes are bluer than yours.
14:24He's got much more hair and he's stronger.
14:27He's ever so bright and he sleeps through the night and of our two, I'd say mine is longer.
14:34I swear it's the truth.
14:36I swear it's the truth.
14:36Mine is cutting a tooth.
14:38And he's obviously going to be tall.
14:41So, it's hard to explain, now I've looked at your...
14:45Wayne.
14:46Why are you bothered to have one at all?
14:50So, that's the first one.
14:52And the second one I wrote after I went to see my son play rugby when he was about 17.
14:58And I didn't recognise him because he looked so grown up and he had one of those big sort of
15:03skull caps on and a mouth guard and padded shoulders.
15:06I didn't even know it was my own son.
15:09How can that be my baby?
15:12How can that be my son?
15:15Standing on a rugger pitch, more than six feet one.
15:19The steam is rising from him.
15:21His legs are streaked with blood.
15:24And he wears a yellow mouth guard in a face that's black with mud.
15:29How can that be my baby?
15:32How can he look like that?
15:34I used to sit him on my knee and read him postman pack.
15:38And those little ears with cotton buds I kept in perfect shape.
15:43But now they're big and purple and they're fastened back with tape.
15:49How can that be my baby?
15:51When did he reach that size?
15:54What happened to his wellies with the little froggy eyes?
15:59His shirt is on one shoulder but it's hanging off the other.
16:03And the little baffled person at his feet is me, his mother.
16:17Lovely stuff.
16:18Well done.
16:1946 plays 20.
16:21Jamie in the lead and let's see what Akena's going to do now.

22:56And a vowel.
23:04Jamie, I have a seven.
23:07And Ikenna, just a six.
23:09And that's six.
23:11Tirade.
23:12A tirade, indeed.
23:13Jamie, radiate.
23:15To radiate.
23:16Very nice.
23:17Yes.
23:17Very good.
23:18We've got a word which you could have used to describe how my mother felt about Elvis Presley.
23:23We've got fixated.
23:26Really?
23:27Yeah.
23:28Now, Susie, anything else?
23:29No, that was our single seven, that one fixated.
23:32Very good.
23:33All right.
23:33Seventy-eight to thirty-eight.
23:35And Ikenna, letters game for you.
23:37Mitchell, can I have a consonant, please?
23:39Thank you, Ikenna.
23:41S.
23:41And another one?
23:44T.
23:45And another one?
23:47T.
23:49And another one?
23:50T.
23:52And I have a vowel this time?
23:55E.
23:56And another one?
23:57I.
23:59And another one?
24:01O.
24:04And a consonant?
24:07R.
24:09And another vowel this time?
24:12And the last one?
24:14E.
24:15Stand by.
24:16pickles
24:18and a consonant.
24:19And another word hits me again.
24:32And another one?
24:32And another one?
24:38So, it's hard with me.
24:48Yes, Kenner.
24:49Seven.
24:50Seven, Jamie?
24:51Seven also.
24:52Yes, Kenner.
24:53Editors.
24:54And, Jamie, distort.
24:57Can we match that seven?
24:58I think we've probably got an eight,
25:00which might describe a pony at a Gymkhana with rosetted.
25:05Is that right?
25:05Yes, rosetted.
25:06Yeah, rosetted.
25:07Very good.
25:08Rosetted.
25:14So there we go.
25:15So, Susie, you're on.
25:17Your special origins of words.
25:20And today?
25:21Today I'm going to give you a bit of a whirlwind tour of milk,
25:24at least milk in language terms.
25:27And I'll start with the galaxy and, indeed, the Milky Way,
25:31because the idea of the whiteness of the Milky Way
25:33being similar to that of milk is a very ancient one
25:36that predates even the earliest days of English.
25:40And we take our word galaxy from the Greek galaxias,
25:43which in turn came from gala, meaning milk.
25:46And Milky Way was already in use in Chaucer's Day,
25:49so they go back a very, very long way.
25:52But milk lies behind other words in English
25:54where you might not expect them.
25:57Lettuce, for example.
25:58You might think, lettuce, what has that got to do with milk?
26:00It's directly named after milk,
26:03because if you squeeze a bit of lettuce,
26:05a bit of milky white juice comes out.
26:07And it's that property that probably accounts for the word.
26:10It goes back to the Latin lactuta,
26:12which, of course, gave us lactate,
26:14as well as many other words to do with milk.
26:18Dragon's milk was an old term for beer.
26:22And sometimes, as well, I think, for gin.
26:24Mother's milk certainly was a euphemism for gin
26:26when people used to tiptoe around,
26:28you know, going off to drink a few.
26:32Balderdash once was a very unappetising concoction
26:34of milk and beer.
26:36And siya-saka, one of my favourites.
26:38Siya-saka goes back to the Persian.
26:41It's that striped cloth.
26:42But actually, in Persian, it means literally milk and sugar
26:45to describe, really, the variation of the stripe
26:48when you look at it.
26:50So, there you go.
26:51Milk hidden, surprisingly, behind quite a few words in English.
26:54Well done. Thank you.
26:59Excellent, Susie, as ever.
27:01So, 85 to Jamie.
27:03Ikenna on 45.
27:04And we turn you to Jamie for the penultimate letters game.
27:09Can I have a consonant, please?
27:10Thank you, Jamie.
27:11M.
27:12And another?
27:14S.
27:16And another?
27:17L.
27:19And a vowel?
27:21O.
27:22And another?
27:23I.
27:24And another?
27:26E.
27:27And a consonant?
27:29W.
27:31And another?
27:33P.
27:36And another consonant, please.
27:38And lastly, C.
27:40And here's the countdown clock.
27:45C.
27:45C.
28:13MUSIC CONTINUES
28:15MUSIC CONTINUES
28:46But, none's nowhere.
28:47And also we have polemics but I'm not sure what that means.
28:50I'll ask Susie about that one.
28:52Yes, the practice of engaging in controversial debate or dispute.
28:5693 plays.
28:5845, Ikenna.
28:59Final letters game for you.
29:01Good luck.
29:01Can I have a consonant this time?
29:03Thank you, Ikenna.

29:06An event.
29:08I.
29:08and another consonant T and a vowel O can I have a consonant L and a vowel E
29:26another vowel O another consonant S and another consonant please and to finish P
29:41done by

30:16And Jamie.
30:17Eight also.
30:19Ikenna.
30:20Loopiest.
30:21Now then.
30:22And I'm going loopy also.
30:25Loopiest.
30:26Well done.
30:27Anybody loopy in the corner?
30:29We were for a bit, yes.
30:31Yeah, we did to get loopiest.
30:34We've also got a terrible red thing my mother used to buy from the butchers.
30:39Polonies.
30:40Sort of a sausage.
30:41Oh, yes.
30:42Polonies, yeah.
30:43So.
30:44Yep, that's another eight.
30:45That's an eight.
30:46So, yeah, we're quite pleased with our polonies.
30:49I think we'll leave it there.
30:50Well done.
30:51All right, 101 to Jamie.
30:52Look, Ikenna on 53.
30:54And it's Jamie's numbers game.
30:57Jamie.
30:58I'll have one large, please, Rachel.
30:59Thank you, Jamie.
31:00One from the top row.
31:01And five other ones to finish the day.
31:03And these last numbers are eight, ten, six, three, four.
31:10And the large one, 75.
31:12And the target, 997.
31:15Nine, nine, seven.

31:48Just 996.

31:51Kenna?
31:53No, we're back with you, Jamie.
31:55So I've done...
31:58No, I've lost it.
31:59It's gone.
32:00I'm sorry.
32:01Both down.
32:03Over to you, Rachel.

32:05Yes, if you say 75...
32:09Minus 4 is 71.
32:118 plus 6 is 14.
32:15Times them together for 994.
32:18And add on the 3, 997.

33:36Well done, Jamie.
33:37Oh, Kenna.
33:39You did so well.
33:41Yes, 109 points.
