00:03Good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown Studio.
00:06Now, 25 years ago today, way back in 1991, the music world lost one of its great, great talents.
00:13Farrakh Bulsara, known, of course, as Freddie Mercury, the frontman for Queen, died, sadly.
00:18Great, great talent. I remember watching Live Aid, I think it was in 85.
00:23And for me, watching it on television, there were two things, two standout performances.
00:27One was Freddie Mercury and Queen, and the other was U2.
00:31He was just a great voice, a fantastic voice, a classical voice in many ways.
00:35And indeed, he went on and sang with the great soprano, the great Spanish soprano, Montserrat Caballé.
00:41So there we are. And of all his songs, I don't know.
00:44The one that stood out, I suppose, possibly because of its length, was Bohemian Rhapsody and the video that went
00:50with it.
00:50But apparently, it was the first time ever that such a long single as it was, was ever released by
00:57any pop group or band, I guess, rock band.
01:00So I'll go for Bohemian Rhapsody. What about Rachel? What do you reckon?
01:04Well, this is a good documentary that keeps repeating on one of the programmes.
01:08And it's all the experts in pop are telling them not to release that because it will never work.
01:12No song like that exists where there's all different styles and they're all piled together and it's so long.
01:17And obviously, it's, you know, such a good favourite these days.
01:20But I like Don't Stop Me Now. That's a good party song.
01:22And Somebody to Love.
01:24I mean, Queen's album list, the discography, there's too many to choose from.
01:27Great talent.
01:28Now, who's with us? Charlie Clark.
01:31Charlie Clark is back.
01:32A customer service specialist from Cork in Ireland.
01:35Had a good win yesterday.
01:36How are you feeling today?
01:37Very good, Nick.
01:38Excellent.
01:39Raring to go again.
01:39Now then, Charlie, let's see how you get on against Susie Hands from Aylsham, a team leader providing care for
01:46the elderly.
01:47That's very good. Where is Aylsham?
01:49Aylsham is on the North Norfolk coast.
01:51All right.
01:52Good.
01:53Now, you were in Washington eight years ago, more or less.
01:57Yep, on holiday.
01:58Come January. What were you doing there?
02:00Well, I was on holiday.
02:01We were doing Washington, then New York.
02:03But I was lucky to see President Obama be inaugurated.
02:07Indeed.
02:08It was amazing.
02:09Where were you?
02:10I was right next to the monument.
02:12So way back.
02:14But they had big displays all the way down so you could see everything.
02:17And here all the booing.
02:19Was there?
02:20Yeah, when different presidents from the past came on.
02:23Okay, but not for Obama.
02:25No, not for Obama.
02:26It was a great moment, I think, for democracy, that.
02:29And, yeah, brilliant.
02:30Let's have a big round of applause for Susie Hands and Charlie Clark.
02:38And there we go in the corner, Susie Dent, of course.
02:41Joined once again by reporter and TV presenter, the wonderful Charlotte Hawkins.
02:45Welcome back, Charlotte.
02:46Good afternoon.
02:47All right.
02:48Now, Charlie, let's get this thing underway, shall we?

04:19It could be.
04:20Or a goatish beard.
04:22Lots of possibilities.
04:23All right.

05:43No problem with that at all, yeah.
05:44Can we match that, Charlotte?
05:46There are some sevens.
05:47Peanuts is one of them.
05:50And outspan.
05:52Outspan, yes.
05:53It means to unharness an animal from a wagon.
05:57So if you think of the prairie days,
05:59all by extension to rest or camp at the side of the road
06:02when travelling by wagon.
06:04At least at outspan.
06:05Interesting.
06:07OK, 11 points each, and it's Charlie's numbers game now.

11:01Both for seven.
11:02Jailers and loiters.
11:04Now, Charlotte.
11:05There were quite a few sevens, actually.
11:06Isolate is another one.
11:08Tailers.
11:09Yes.
11:10Toilers.
11:11And if you go down to a six, laters.
11:14As in, see you later.
11:15Not sure you'll like that one.
11:16Laters.
11:17Laters.
11:18Laters.
11:19Yeah.
11:19OK.
11:2033 to 23.
11:22Susie, it's numbers time for you.
11:23Could I have one large, please?
11:25Thank you, Susie.
11:26One large and five little ones again.
11:29And this time, the little numbers are two, nine, four, ten, and eight.
11:36And the big one, 100.
11:37And this target, 580.
11:40Five, eight, zero.

12:02One large and five, nine, four, ten, and eight.
12:02One large and five, nine, four, ten, and eight.
12:04One large and five, nine, four, ten, and eight.
12:13Susie?
12:14580.
12:15580.
12:17Charlie?
12:17No, 583.
12:19All right.
12:20Susie?
12:215 times...
12:22I'm sorry, 9 minus 4 is 5.
12:259 minus 4, 5.
12:27Times that by the 100.
12:28500.
12:298 times 10 is 80.
12:31It is indeed.
12:32And add them together.
12:33580, lovely.
12:34Very good.
12:39It draws you level with Charlie, who's kicking himself, I imagine.
12:43All right.
12:44So it's 33 apiece as we turn to Charlotte.
12:47And Charlotte, men on television all the time throw on a suit and that's that.
12:52But the ladies, of course, have also got to try to look swell, I imagine.
12:57And that sometimes poses a problem.
13:00Yes.
13:00Quite a lot of thought goes into the outfits.
13:02I mean, one of the perks of my jobs is getting to go to the lovely events, you know, the
13:07glittering parties and things like that.
13:09But always in the back of your mind, you're thinking, I need to try to find the right dress.
13:13And there are several perils and potential pitfalls to this.
13:18Of course, we've all seen the photographs where someone only discovers that their dress is a bit see-through after
13:23all those camera flashes.
13:25Not good.
13:26Luckily, that one hasn't happened to me.
13:28But I was one time thrilled with this beautiful dress I'd found.
13:32It was a floor-length red dress.
13:34Absolutely stunning.
13:35Until I stepped onto the red carpet and realised it was exactly the same shade as the red carpet.
13:42And not only that, but they then ushered us through to a room where they wanted photos to take place.
13:46And the carpet was red, but also they'd put the red carpet up the walls as well, which was very
13:52useful.
13:53So I essentially looked like a floating head for that particular set of photographs.
13:58Another time, I was lucky enough to interview David Beckham.
14:02I know, tough job, isn't it, I've got.
14:04And I was thinking, I've got to try and find the right dress for this important occasion.
14:08Now, I thought, you know, going red, a bit too obvious with his Manchester United links.
14:12Won't go sky blue for Man City.
14:14That might upset him.
14:15So I found a lovely turquoise one.
14:17And he was even very complimentary about my dress when he saw it.
14:20So I thought, great, you know, got the right one here.
14:23Until I stepped into the venue where I was going to be interviewing him, a sports hall that happened to
14:29be completely turquoise.
14:31So once again, I had come dressed as the scenery.
14:36But it's not just the colours of things that can trip you up.
14:40Because every year, I fly out to Maastricht to interview Andre Ryu, the classical musician.
14:45And I go and host his concerts.
14:48And then they go out in cinemas afterwards.
14:50And one particular time, we were doing a Christmas concert in a cinema.
14:55And as part of this, I had to get changed into this lovely evening gown, ready to interview him.
15:00Of course, being a cinema, they didn't have any of the usual facilities.
15:03So there weren't any dressing rooms or anything.
15:05But the team said, don't worry, we'll help you out.
15:07There was a big room upstairs that had a window overlooking the street, which wasn't ideal for getting changed.
15:12But they helped to protect my dignity by holding up a big curtain.
15:17But obviously, I didn't have much time to get ready.
15:19So, you know, quick throw on the evening gown, Dan ready to do the interview with Andre.
15:24And it was only the next morning that I realised I'd forgotten something crucial.
15:29And I'd packed light for this trip.
15:31So I'd only bought one set of clothes with me.
15:33And I'd managed to leave them on the cinema windowsill.
15:36So I had to get the flight home, wearing my evening gown, through security, onto the plane, off again, at
15:44Heathrow.
15:45And unfortunately, I do this concert every year.
15:48And every year they say, remember your trousers this year, Charlotte?
15:51So it's one that I am never going to live down.
15:54That's brilliant.
15:55I've heard on the walk of shame, as it were in the morning, the flight of shame.
15:58It's another thing.
15:59Another thing, indeed.
16:00Well done.
16:01Thank you, Charlotte.
16:04Very good.
16:05Very good, indeed.
16:07Now then, Charlie.
16:0833 apiece, and it's your letters game.
16:11Consonant, please, Rachel.
16:12Thank you, Charlie.
16:13R.
16:14And another consonant.

16:32Consonant.
16:34T.
16:34And a consonant.
16:36And lastly, S.
16:38Stand by.
16:38All right.
17:09Charlie.
17:10I think I have a nine.
17:12Right.
17:13Susie.
17:14Seven.
17:15Your seven?
17:16Your rhinos.
17:19Thank you for that reminder.
17:21Charlie.
17:22Insulator.
17:25You are spelling the E-R.
17:27Oh, Charlie, I'm so sorry.
17:29It's O-R.
17:30I'm so sorry.
17:31That's such a good try.
17:32That is bad luck, Charlie.
17:34A brave shot.
17:35A brave shot.
17:36Now, Charlotte.
17:37So, there is insulate for eight, and also an eight tenurial.
17:42Yes.
17:42All to do with the tenure of land, tenurial holdings, for example.
17:47All right.
17:49So, Susie has sprung back into seven-point lead, 40 to 33.
17:54Well done, Susie.
17:56Letters.
17:57Could I have a consonant, please, Rachel?
17:59Thank you, Susie.

18:17And a third.
18:19E.
18:20And a consonant.
18:21G.
18:24And another consonant.
18:27And lastly, T.
18:29Stand by.
19:01Susie.
19:02I'm six.
19:03A six.

19:13Getting a new one there.
19:15Just check it has been added, yes, probably some time ago, actually.
19:20Sexting's in the dictionary.
19:21Well done.
19:22APPLAUSE
19:26So it's 40 apiece.
19:28Now, Charlotte.
19:30Yes, there is an eight for those wanting to be healthy.
19:33Detoxing.
19:34Detoxing.
19:35Well done.
19:35All right, so it's 40 apiece again, and it's Charlie's numbers game.
19:39Now then, Charlie.

19:42Thank you, Charlie.
19:43Another large one and five little.

20:57our second tea time teaser, which is Bean Trap. And the clue, were Team GB carrying this lucky item at
21:04the Olympic Games? Were Team GB carrying this lucky item at the Olympic Games?
21:25Welcome back. I left with the clue. Were Team GB carrying this lucky item at the Olympic Games? And the
21:31answer, Susie, is Pantarb. What's that when it's been carried around?
21:37It's a mythical. It was mythical precious stone alleged to have magical properties and to be able to attract gold,
21:44hence the Olympic reference there.
21:46It sounds quite wonderful. But there were lots of stones like this. Amethyst, another one, thought to be magical in
21:51some ways.
21:51And some have different properties. Some have different properties. Yes. Exactly.

25:12And today?
25:13Well, English speakers are renowned for their love of wordplay.
25:17It's one of the things that keeps our language so robust.
25:20And one of the ways in which we play around with words almost every day is to create what
25:25we call reduplicative compounds or expressions.
25:29A pretty horrible term for words like hanky-panky, shilly-shally, okie-dokie, that sort of thing.
25:37And we do this in lots of different ways.
25:39So there's the rhyming, which okie-dokie links into, namby-pamby, hugger-mugger, that sort
25:44of thing.
25:45Exact duplication, so choo-choo, bling-bling, blah-blah, that sort of thing.
25:50Or vowel substitution, like zigzag, chit-chat, hip-hop, that kind of thing.
25:56So as you can see, so many of our words that we have today, we are the result of wordplay
25:59in this sort of, by this sort of process.
26:03And one of the ways in which we really express this kind of playful exuberance, if you like,
26:09is to, particularly in times where we're particularly joyous.
26:12So if you take the 50s or the 40s and 50s, the 60s again, when we're post-war and we're
26:18sort of excited, happy, there's a good feeling around.
26:21These sort of expressions really seem to come to the fore, so the bee's knees was one of
26:26many words that came from that period to express the acme of excellence, if you like.
26:30The kipper's knickers was another one, which regularly was one of my favourites.
26:35One of these expressions that we usually use with a smile is hanky-panky, usually some sort
26:41of indiscretion somewhere down the line.
26:43But actually it started off much more seriously.
26:45It was used of magicians, conjurers and even criminals who would be up to no good through
26:51dishonesty and trickery.
26:53It's probably an alteration of hocus-pocus.
26:55That, in turn, said by conjurers as they perform their tricks, it was part of probably a pseudo-Latin
27:01phrase that went hax-max, hax-pax, max-deus, adi-max.
27:05So that was their pseudo-Latin formula.
27:08Hocus-pocus came from that, as did hoax, intently, and eventually a bit of hanky-panky.
27:13So that one's had a slightly more sinister beginning than something like the bee's knees.
27:17But those reduplicative compounds, horrible word as it is, are around absolutely everywhere.
27:23Fantastic.
27:28Thank you, thank you.
27:29All right.
27:3165 plays 48.
27:33And Susie, it's your letters game.

30:30Yes.
30:31A-P-H-I-D-E-S.
30:34It's the plural of aphids, which means the same as an aphid, essentially.
30:38So green fly, black fly, those sort of insects that bite sap from plants or take sap from plants, those
30:45are aphids and aphides.
30:46Indeed.
30:47Well done.
30:48So 78 to 61 as we go to Susie for the final numbers game.
