00:30Hello, everybody.
00:32Welcome to Countdown this Thursday afternoon,
00:34our fourth programme of the week.
00:36So let's get this show on the road.
00:38Thank you for tuning in.
00:39Hi, Rachel.
00:40Hi, Colt.
00:41Happy World Porridge Day.
00:43And to you too.
00:44You're not here yet, but as you get a bit older,
00:46porridge becomes a little bit more important to keep you regular,
00:48you know?
00:49It's a good thing that.
00:50Can't have baking sandwiches every day, do you know what I mean?
00:52So it's a very important part of my diet.
00:55We're really getting to know you.
00:56Maybe a little too well, Colt.
00:58Well, listen, let's get over to Dick Street Corner.
01:00Our wizard of the world, Susie Dent, primed and ready
01:03and alongside her again.
01:05Has been every day this week.
01:07The sensational Palmares.
01:08Oh, thank you.
01:10Let's meet two new challengers,
01:12because the gentleman, Terence,
01:14became our fourth octo-champ of Series 90.
01:17So let's meet them.
01:19Rodri Tomas is with us.
01:20How are you, sir?
01:21Very well, thank you.
01:21You co-own a football club?
01:24I do.
01:25Well, as a fan, it's a fan-owned club.
01:27Yes.
01:27Which was formed about six years ago, five years ago.
01:30It's owned by the fans,
01:31so we're not going to be saying the hashtag Thomas out at any stage,
01:35which is good.
01:35Hopefully not.
01:36Maybe by James, halfway through this show.
01:38James Martin joins us from Sutton Coalfield.
01:41How are you, mate?
01:41Very good, thank you.
01:42Good.
01:42Now, you've been round his way,
01:44because he lives in North Wales now,
01:46and you're obsessed with climbing the peaks of North Wales.
01:48Tell us about that.
01:49Yeah, so I've climbed all 2,000-foot peaks in North Wales.
01:54Only north, not south.
01:55Love it.
01:56Mountain to climb today for both of you.
01:57Two challengers.
01:59Best of luck to Rodri and James.
02:03And off we go, Rodri.
02:04You get to pick first.
02:05Hi, Rachel.
02:06Hi, Rodri.
02:07I'll start with a vowel, please.
02:09Start today with E.
02:11And a consonant.
02:14R.
02:16Another consonant.
02:18G.
02:20And a vowel, please.
02:23I.
02:24Another consonant.
02:26N.
02:28Another vowel.
02:30A.
02:32A consonant, please.
02:34T.
02:37Another consonant, please.
02:40R.
02:42And I'll finish with a vowel.
02:45Finish with O.
02:47At home and in the studio, let's play Countdown.
02:49I'll watch this one.
02:56I'll see you next time for about a little bit.
02:58You can do it.
03:16There, there.
03:19This one is O.
03:19Interesting start. Rodri? Seven. Seven from you and James? Seven too. Seven as well. OK, Rodri? Tearing. Tearing. And for
03:28you, James? Rearing. Rearing and tearing and all those lovely I-N-G's. Pam, speak to me.
03:37We have got Groner, which is seven. Yeah. And we have got re-rating, which is eight. So I don't
03:44quite know what that means. I'm going to ask Susie.
03:47When you reassess a company or its share situation, for example, that's called re-rating. I see. Thank you.
03:53Right, James, you're picking the letters for the first time. OK, hi, Rachel. Hi, James. Can I start with a
03:57consonant, please?
03:58You can indeed start with C. And another.
04:02N. And a vowel.
04:06A. And a consonant.
04:09L. And another.
04:12S. And a vowel.
04:16E. And another.
04:20I. And a consonant.
04:24T. And I'll finish with a consonant, please.
04:28Finish with N.
04:30And start the clock.
05:01James. An eight. An eight for you. And Rodri? Just a six. Just the six. Rodri, what have you got?
05:08Cleans. James? Cannyest. Oh, there you go. Cannyest. Very good indeed. Well done. So is that a lot? We have
05:17got an eight and it's instance. Ah, spotted. Yeah. Two eights there. The score at the moment, Rodri 7, James
05:2515. First numbers round of the day, Rodri. I have to tell you, James is a maths teacher. I have
05:30to be fair and
05:30you need four, Ward, before you pick. Off you go. Oh. Well, I'll stick with me plan. Six small, please.
05:37Oh, yes. Here we go. Six small. So you like the maths then? We'll see. We'll ask you again in
05:42a couple of minutes.
05:43Your six small ones are six, one, nine, one, ten and five. And the target to reach 474.
05:56474. Numbers up.
05:59454.
05:59494.
06:04493.
06:07493.
06:284-7-4, Rodri.
06:30I think I've got 4-7-4.
06:32And James?
06:334-7-6.
06:34Mr Byteau, Rodri, the tactics might have worked.
06:37Let's go for it.
06:385 times 10.
06:405 times 10.
06:4150.
06:42Plus 1 plus 1.
06:44Plus 1 plus 1.
06:45Is 52 times 9.
06:47Times by 9 for 468.
06:52And add the 6.
06:53And you've got the 6 left over.
06:54That will do 4-7-4.
06:56APPLAUSE
06:56Oh, ho, ho!
06:59First tea-time teaser is rare goat.
07:02Rare goat.
07:04Claim authority somewhere in North Yorkshire, perhaps.
07:07Claim authority somewhere in North Yorkshire, perhaps.
07:11MUSIC
07:19APPLAUSE
07:26Welcome back.
07:27A bit of poetic licence with that tea-time teaser.
07:29Claim authority somewhere in North Yorkshire, perhaps.
07:33Close.
07:33It's not quite arrogant.
07:35Arrogate.
07:35What's the meaning of that, Susie?
07:37It's to take something without any justification.
07:40Something people of Harrogate would never do, I think.
07:42Well, one of you need to justify taking home a teapot.
07:45And I reckon this is going to go all the way today.
07:48James, back to the letters.
07:51OK.
07:51Could I start with a consonant, please?
07:53Thank you, James.
07:54Y.
07:54And another.
07:56C.
07:58And a third.
08:00S.
08:01And a vowel.
08:04O.
08:05And another vowel.
08:07A.
08:08And a consonant.
08:11N.
08:12And another.
08:15G.
08:16And a vowel.
08:19E.
08:21And consonants finish, please.
08:24Lastly, D.
08:2630 seconds.
08:28MUSIC PLAYS
08:57James.
08:59MUSIC PLAYS
08:59And Rodri? Five as well.
09:02Yeah, I could hear loads of huffing and puffing going on.
09:04I was wondering. James? Scone.
09:07Rodri? And KG. And KG?
09:10Yes, I can spell KG with E, absolutely fine.
09:13Yeah, good stuff.
09:14Palmares? I got Kaj.
09:17Yeah? Which is pretty pathetic.
09:19But on the other hand, for eight, we have Decagons,
09:23which are ten-sided figures. Wow!
09:26So that was Susie. But you played that beautifully.
09:28I didn't think there was an eight coming after that.
09:31Wonderful. Congratulations.
09:35As it is, the scores stay the same. We get back to it then, Rodri?
09:38I'll start with the vowel again, please. Thank you, Rodri.
09:41U. And another.
09:45I. And a consonant.
09:48S. Another consonant.
09:52T. And another consonant.
09:56N.
09:57Vowel, please.
10:00E.
10:01A consonant.
10:04S.
10:06And another consonant.
10:10T.
10:11And finish with a vowel, please.
10:14Finish with...
10:16A.
10:17Interesting. Let's do it.
10:19An language.
10:20A.
10:21A.
10:21A.
10:25A.
10:29A.
10:30A.
10:30A.
10:41A.
10:48A.
10:49Rodri? Try an eight.
10:51And James? Eight. Off you go, Rodri.
10:54Ansiest. James?
10:56Tautness. And tautness, Susie, talked us.
10:58Wow, what brilliant effort.
11:00And I can say they are both in the dictionary. Yes, well done.
11:03Wonderful.
11:06The I is the only thing left over there, Pam.
11:09Yes, we've got nastiest.
11:11Nastiest. Yeah, nastiest.
11:13All right, second numbers.
11:16James, our maths teacher, hoping to fare a little bit better.
11:19Your choosing.
11:20Go one large, five small, please.
11:22Thank you, James. One large, five little.
11:24Almost the mathematical opposite of six small.
11:27Let's see, this time, the five little ones.
11:30Six, one, ten, nine and eight.
11:36And hopefully, to make it easier, 25.
11:39And the target, 578.
11:42578. Numbers up.
12:1205.
12:145, 7, 8, James.
12:165, 7, 6, not fully written down.
12:18Good effort. 2 away.
12:20Rodri?
12:20No-one near it, my friends.
12:22That's why I was pre-empting the good effort.
12:23Off you go, James.
12:2510 plus 8 plus 9.
12:2927.
12:30Times by 25.
12:34675.
12:35I've messed it up.
12:37Sorry, James.
12:38Oh, she's smiling.
12:39She's smiling.
12:40Here we go.
12:41Oh, just the way the numbers fell.
12:42If you say 10 plus 9 is 19,
12:476 minus 1 is 5,
12:48plus 25 is 30,
12:50times those together for 570
12:53and add on the 8.
12:55Not your average one, Lodge.
12:59Really tricky.
13:00Really tricky.
13:01Well done, Rich.
13:02It is 30.28, two points in it,
13:04and Palm Airs is ready to rock again.
13:08Where are we going to today?
13:09Well, the time of year for this one,
13:12I think,
13:12which is when lots of people's sons and daughters
13:15have gone off to university
13:17and it does leave quite a void in the home.
13:21He is off to university.
13:23All is now in place.
13:25There is fear, anticipation,
13:27and excitement in his face.
13:29An overstuffed, enormous bag and rucksack in the hall
13:34and a ghastly, leaden feeling like the ending of it all.
13:38I cannot let it show this selfish aching in my heart
13:43for the sweet, chaotic years in which you played the major part.
13:48I am fearful of the emptiness when you depart the room
13:52and silence settles round us like the stillness of a tomb.
13:56At your bedroom door, I used to stand and shake my head.
14:00The mess was unbelievable, the floor, the chair, the bed.
14:05The place was never hoovered, never felt a duster's touch,
14:09but now it's neat and clean.
14:12I don't like it half as much.
14:15I loved you going out so young and eager and alive.
14:19I loved you coming home, your little car turned in the drive.
14:24The energy, the racket, all the songs you love to play.
14:28And I won't know where to turn to when the music dies away.
14:32There was ringing of the mobile, there was tapping of the text,
14:36the iPod and the iPad and the new thing coming next.
14:40There was passion, there was fashion,
14:43with your father in despair saying,
14:45in the name of God, what has that boy done to his heir?
14:50Now parents realise that all between them which has dwindled
14:55may be resuscitated and romantically rekindled.
15:01Old passions reignited, sexual energies uncurbed.
15:07But looking at your dad, I think I'll leave him undisturbed.
15:13My son is ready, eager, fit, independent.
15:17He has to go.
15:19He must take his chances now.
15:21I know, I know, I know, I know.
15:23He may make so many friends, he may be having such a ball.
15:28It may all be so exciting that he won't come home at all.
15:33And I am looking at a life that seems so drained of all its colour.
15:37The heart has gone from us.
15:39We are older, we are duller.
15:42Now when people ask us, we'll show photographs and say,
15:46our son's at university.
15:48That's right, he lives away.
15:57I thought Susie was going to go there.
15:59I thought we were going to have to take a break.
16:01I really did.
16:01Goosebumps.
16:03Thank you, Pam.
16:04Thank you so much.
16:05Right, let's get back to the game.
16:08And we are not in a champion-challenger situation
16:11because it's two challengers today
16:13after our octo-champ yesterday.
16:15So, Rodri, with your nose ever so slightly in front,
16:20let's get more letters.
16:21I'll start with a vowel, please, Rachel.
16:23Thank you, Rodri.
16:24I.
16:25And a consonant.
16:27L.
16:28Another consonant.
16:31M.
16:32And a vowel.
16:34E.
16:36Consonant.
16:45T.
16:47Consonant.
16:49G.
16:51And another consonant.
16:54Lastly, W.
16:56And here we go again.
17:27All right, Rodri.
17:29I'd probably kick myself five.
17:30OK.
17:31And James?
17:32Five-two.
17:32Rodri.
17:33Comet.
17:34And for you, James?
17:35Tile.
17:35And tile.
17:37Excellent.
17:38Comet and tile.
17:39Tile, or however you say it.
17:41Anything else, Pam?
17:43Yes, we've got a lovely word, six letters.
17:45Gimlet.
17:46A gimlet.
17:47Yes, a gimlet.
17:48And I don't know how to pronounce that.
17:51Motile, which simply means capable of motion.
17:55And gimlet is a tool for boring, which is like gimlet-eyed if you're boring a hole into someone, and
18:01a cocktail.
18:02Excellent.
18:02It's as you were.
18:03Loving this.
18:04James, let's go again.
18:05OK, I'll start with a consonant, please.
18:07Thank you, James.
18:08T.
18:08And another.
18:11D.
18:12And a vowel.
18:14E.
18:15And another vowel.
18:17A.
18:18And a consonant, please.
18:20R.
18:21And another.
18:23X.
18:25And another consonant.
18:27L.
18:28And a vowel.
18:30U.
18:32And finish with another vowel, please.
18:36Finish with O.
18:37And half a minute.
18:39BELL RINGS
19:04BELL RINGS
19:09James?
19:10Risky seven.
19:11Yeah.
19:12Rodri?
19:12Six.
19:13Yeah, it feels like anything above a six is quite risky here.
19:16Rodri, there's six.
19:18Rooted or routed.
19:19And James?
19:20Outread.
19:21Yeah.
19:22Have it right here and a big question mark beside it.
19:25Yeah, I can outride but not outread, I'm afraid.
19:29I'm sorry, James.
19:30Rodri, you get the points.
19:31And Pam, is there anything else?
19:33We've got a word I dare not say within earshot of my husband.
19:37Roulade.
19:40And we have...
19:43Luxated, which sounds wonderful like luxuriated.
19:47That's there for seven.
19:48It actually means to dislocate, if you've luxated a joint.
19:50Oh, really?
19:51Sounds a much nicer word than it is, doesn't it?
19:54They're both seven.
19:55They're both seven letters.
19:57Yeah, nice.
19:58OK, numbers, third numbers round of the day.
20:01It's been a right ride, these numbers, Rodri.
20:03And you're going this time.
20:05Let's go for a change.
20:06Two large and four small, please.
20:08Two large and four small.
20:09Not too much daylight between you two.
20:11Let's see if this will change anything.
20:13The four small ones this time.
20:14One, ten, six, and five.
20:18And the large two, 100 and 50.
20:21And your target, 770.
20:23Seven, seven zero.
20:25Numbers up.
20:25One, ten, seven.
20:577-7-0, Rodri.
20:59No, 7-8-5 is the best thing to do.
21:02So, James?
21:03No, I've lost it as well.
21:04You've lost it too.
21:05Right, I think the nerves were there after the last two rounds.
21:08Plenty of kicking going on at the table.
21:10Off you go.
21:10Yep, you can do 710s or 1170s.
21:13Both of them are there.
21:156 plus 1 is 7.
21:17100 plus 10, 110.
21:19Time's been together.
21:21That easy.
21:22Well done.
21:25Eight points in it with six rounds to go.
21:28Well, we get our first crucial in a while today.
21:30We'll see.
21:31But let's get this tea time teaser, which is tricky again.
21:34They've both been very tricky today.
21:35Much rest.
21:37Much rest.
21:38You don't get much rest in Bhutan because you're too busy spending these.
21:41You don't get much rest in Bhutan because you're too busy spending these.
22:01Hello again.
22:02That tea time teaser was a difficult one unless you've been in Bhutan because it's their currency.
22:07And the answer was chetrums, Susie.
22:10Chetrums.
22:11Yes.
22:11And it takes 100 chetrums to make a nagulterum, which is the basic monetary unit.
22:16There you go.
22:16A penny if you like.
22:18Exactly.
22:19A chetrum for your thoughts right now, Rodri and James, because just eight points in it.
22:24A lot to play for here.
22:25Let's do it then, James.
22:26Your letters.
22:27Start with a consonant, please.
22:28Thank you, James.
22:29P.
22:30And another.
22:32D.
22:33And a third.
22:35H.
22:36A vowel.
22:38A.
22:39And a consonant.
22:41M.
22:42And a vowel.
22:43I.
22:44And another vowel.
22:46E.
22:47And a consonant.
22:49S.
22:51And finish with a vowel, please.
22:54Finish with O.
22:56And good luck.
23:04Bye-bye.
23:25ORCHESTRAL MUSIC
23:28James?
23:30Just a five.
23:31Roger? Six.
23:32OK, you both look surprised.
23:35James?
23:35Shade.
23:36For the six?
23:38Shaped.
23:38Oh, yeah, of course, shaped.
23:40Yes.
23:40How do you get on Dixery Corner?
23:42Yes, we've got an eight-letter word,
23:44which probably describes some of us.
23:47Mop heads.
23:48Mop heads.
23:48Yes, if you've got a luxuriant growth.
23:51Yeah, back in the days of Brit Popeyes,
23:53a bit of a mop head, yeah.
23:54Yeah, the Leo Sayer look.
23:56Not quite Leo Sayer, more Ian Brown,
23:59but, Pam, you do make me feel like dancing.
24:0347.33.
24:04More letters now.
24:05Here we go, Roger.
24:07I'll start with a vowel, please, Rachel.
24:09Thank you, Roger.
24:11A.
24:12And a consonant.
24:14R.
24:15Another vowel.
24:17E.
24:18Consonant, please.
24:20D.
24:21And another.
24:23S.
24:25And another.
24:27L.
24:28A vowel.
24:31U.
24:33A consonant.
24:36R.
24:38And a final vowel, please.
24:41Final A.
24:42Let's play.
24:43Good.
24:44We're going.
25:12Now Apple is open to sin incidents.
25:13And a engine.
25:14All right, Rodri.
25:15A risky seven.
25:16James.
25:17Six.
25:18OK, could count, because we know it's risky.
25:20So, James, the six.
25:22Pearls.
25:22And for you, Rodri?
25:24Slurper.
25:25A slurper.
25:26A slurper.
25:28We all know one.
25:29It's not in the dictionary, though.
25:31Bad luck, bad luck.
25:32And for dictionary corner.
25:34We've got a seven, which is larraps.
25:36Larraps.
25:37Yeah.
25:37We've also got a six, which is pulsar,
25:40but I'm not sure what that means.
25:41I'm going to ask Susie.
25:42That is a celestial object, a pulsar.
25:45And to larraps is to thrash someone
25:48or to hit something really hard.
25:49No-one's getting thrashed today, are they?
25:51Look at this.
25:52We're back to eight points, the difference.
25:54We know that's crucial.
25:55Countdown, conundrum territory.
25:57Let's enjoy the last four rounds
25:59after we get our origins of words from Susie Dent.
26:02Are we going to the emails?
26:04Yeah, we're going to the Wirral.
26:06And an email from David L. Darla,
26:08who says,
26:09If I wanted to say something misleading or suspicious,
26:11why would I put my tongue in my cheek?
26:14Surely this would make my words incomprehensible.
26:17Anyway, if I tried to pull the wool over your eyes,
26:20you would no doubt take it with a pinch of salt.
26:22Just a few sayings, says David,
26:24that I haven't quite worked out in 84 years.
26:29So, I'll start with tongue-in-cheek.
26:31That was, exactly,
26:33that was once thought to be a very contemptuous gesture.
26:36So maybe it's a little bit more teasing these days,
26:39but it was once thought to be quite rude, actually.
26:41And it then came to be attached to a remark
26:45that was ironic or insincere, etc.
26:49But nowadays, we say tongue-in-cheek,
26:50it's like I'm only joshing.
26:51But it started off as something slightly different.
26:55And take it with a pinch of salt,
26:57one of my favourite stories that is said to come from
27:01a historian's account of King Mithridates of Pontus,
27:05back in ancient times,
27:07who had many, many enemies,
27:08and he was convinced that he was being poisoned.
27:11And so he had his courtiers bring various small amounts of poison
27:17with a tiny, tiny bit of salt.
27:19And he thought if he took tiny bits of poison,
27:21he would make his body completely immune.
27:23But in order to make it palatable,
27:25because, of course, the taste was horrendous,
27:26he would take it with a tiny, tiny bit of salt.
27:29So if you take something with a pinch of salt,
27:30you are able to swallow it.
27:32But that's the only way.
27:33Wow. Thank you very much. Great.
27:38So, eight points in it.
27:39James, here we go.
27:41Start with a constant, please.
27:42Thank you, James.

28:44James?
28:44Just a six.
28:46Yeah, Rodri.
28:46Six as well, yeah.
28:47I think they could score very highly.
28:49Go ahead, James.
28:50Stoked.
28:50Yes, and for you, Rodri?
28:52Stowed.
28:53OK, stowed and stoked for six each, Palmeiras.
28:57I was trying to get goiter, but I couldn't.
29:00But I think it's quite an interesting word.
29:03But we do have widgets, which is seven.
29:05We've got widgets again.
29:06Apart from that, it was slim pickings, wasn't it?
29:08Let's do it then.
29:09Last letters round with our two challengers.
29:11Rodri, go for it.
29:12I'll start with a vowel again, please, Rachel.
29:14Thank you, Rodri.

29:51So.
30:17Our version.
30:20Our time is up, Rodri.
30:21A seven.
30:22Seven from you and James.
30:24Just a six.
30:25And the six.
30:25The six is?
30:26Harden.
30:27Harden.
30:28And what have you spotted, Rodri?
30:29Unheard.
30:30Unheard.
30:31Yes, well done.
30:33Big, big seven points.
30:34That gives you a bit more of a cushion.
30:3615 points, the difference.
30:38Unheard, as good as it gets?
30:40No, we've got a Romeo and Juliet moment over here with veranda.
30:44Well, it should have been balcony, but veranda will do.
30:47Veranda, which is eight letters.
30:48Yes, well done.
30:50OK, all is not lost for you, James,
30:54because before we get to that conundrum,
30:56we have the last numbers, and you're in charge.
30:58OK, I'll try two large, please, four small.
31:00Time for some maths teacher magic here.
31:03Two large for a little final numbers game today.
31:05And they are one, five, one, three, 150.
31:12And the target?
31:15869.
31:16Eight, six, nine last numbers.
31:488-6-9, the target, James.
31:52Lost again.
31:53No worries. And Rodri?
31:558-7-6, I think.
31:578-7-6 has put you doing my best, Bruce Forsyth.
32:02Seven away. It's been a long day. Off you go, Rodri.
32:05100 plus 50.
32:08150.
32:09Minus 3, minus 1.
32:11Minus the 3 and minus the 1, 1, 4, 6.
32:14And then 5 plus 1 is 6 and multiply them.
32:18And time's in for 876.
32:22For five extra points, you've secured the teapot, but 8-6-9.
32:28Rachel?
32:29Well, you can get to one either side, actually.
32:32I got to 870, but this one was impossible, so that's a great effort.
