00:00This programme contains strong language and adult humour.
00:05APPLAUSE
00:31Good afternoon, and welcome to the Countdown studio.
00:35Last week we had Gloria Uniford here in the studio
00:38who told us to lay off the sugar.
00:40Rach, you'll be pleased to know that this week, of course,
00:43it's National Salt Awareness Week,
00:45which is designed to make us eat less salt.
00:48Why should we do so? Because apparently stroke
00:51is the third biggest killer in the UK
00:53and salt is a major factor in high blood pressure.
00:56Reducing, I read here from the report,
00:58the average salt intake by a gram a day
01:01may help prevent 2,600 deaths from stroke each year.
01:05And also eating too much salt, of course,
01:07health problems including osteoporosis,
01:10cancer, kidney and heart-related disease.
01:13It sounds like a Daily Express front-page headline, doesn't it?
01:17It does. Honestly.
01:19But there we are. Are you a big salt eater?
01:21I don't know as much as the next person.
01:23It's in the food that you take...
01:25You don't realise, do you, when you eat out?
01:27I don't know what to do for the best.
01:29I'll cut down on the margaritas and tequilas to get my salt intake down.
01:32What a good idea. Brilliant.
01:34Brilliant. I'm cutting down on the bacon.
01:36Joe Hamill's back.
01:38Now on two wins, beat Paul Easton, 84-55, musician from Thornby.
01:42And you're now soon going to be recording your debut album.
01:46Yes. Called?
01:48It hasn't got a name yet. There's a few names in the pipeline,
01:50but they're not decided yet.
01:52Excellent. We'll come up with one during the course of the day.
01:54I'll send the CD in when it's done.
01:56And you're joined today by Ruth Irwin,
01:58a student from the University of Dundee from Northern Ireland.
02:01And we were talking earlier, from Lisbon.
02:03Yes. That's right. Now in Dundee.
02:05What are you reading at the University of Dundee?
02:07I'm studying law together with French.
02:09Law and French. Good. That'll propel you into Europe, I guess.
02:12An Irish terrier called Teddy. Friendly?
02:15Yes. But they go chasing foxes and rabbits?
02:18Oh, no, no. He's not that kind of terrier.
02:20Oh, really? He should be.
02:22And you enjoyed travelling around Europe
02:24to learn more about 20th century history.
02:26Yeah, why not? Why not?
02:28Big round of applause.
02:30Go on, Joe and Ruth.
02:36And in the corner, of course,
02:38the great Susie Dent,
02:40joined by one of our favourite guests.
02:42He comes back time and time again
02:44because he's such a good guy and a great laugher.
02:46Tim Ryan, comedian, actor, writer and presenter.
02:48Welcome, Tim. Thank you so much.
02:50I only left it five years,
02:52which shows how keen I am to come back here again.
02:54You were here last year. What are you talking about?
02:56No, I was. You're absolutely right.
02:58It's interesting, Ruth, you were saying you're from Northern Ireland,
03:01because I can do a joke involving any town in Northern Ireland.
03:04Lisbon. No, no, I have to choose a town for the joke I've got.
03:08But you're probably... I've got a punchline, Nick.
03:11You're probably thinking to yourself,
03:13is there any skill in that? Is there any skill in that?
03:16Any skill in that? Any skill in that?
03:18Great stuff. Now then, Joe, how about a letters game?
03:21Hi, Rachel. Hi, Joe.
03:23Could I begin with a consonant, please?
03:25Thank you. Start the week with N.
03:27And another.
03:29G.
03:31And another.
03:33D.
03:35And a vowel.
03:37U.
03:39And another.
03:41E.
03:43And a consonant.
03:45Y.
03:47A.
03:49And a consonant.
03:51C.
03:53And a final vowel, please.
03:55And a final I.
03:57And here's the Countdown Clock.
04:18CLOCK TICKS
04:30Now then, Joe. Eight.
04:32And a Ruth. I just got a five.
04:34And that five? Dance.
04:36Dance. And? Decaying.
04:38Excellent. Yep, decaying. Very good.
04:41Decaying? Very good. Now then, Tim.
04:43You certainly stopped the rot with that one.
04:46Well, I've realised how long ago it was since I last played this game
04:50because I could only come up with Jew, which was already in there.
04:53D-U-E. I saw it. The second it came up, it just jumped out at me.
04:56And you can't have names, can you?
04:58Dewey, as in Huey, Dewey and Louie,
05:00because that was also in there. D-U-E-Y, Huey, Dewey and Louie.
05:03But I think you may have something better there, Susie.
05:06What have you got there? There's just another eight. Guidance.
05:09Guidance. Guidance. Very good.
05:11All right. So, eight to Joe.
05:13Quick start there.
05:16Letters game.
05:17Hi, Rachel. Hi, Ruth. Could I have a consonant, please?
05:20Thank you. Start with T.
05:22And another.
05:24M.
05:26And another.
05:28S.
05:29And a vowel, please.
05:31O.
05:32And another.
05:34B.
05:35And another.
05:37I.
05:39A consonant.
05:41T.
05:43A consonant.
05:45R.
05:47And a final vowel, please.
05:49And a final A.
05:52And here's the clock.
06:13CLOCK TICKS
06:24Now then, Ruth. A seven.
06:26A seven. Seven. Two sevens.
06:28Ruth? Matters.
06:29Thank you. Matters as well.
06:31Two matters. Does it matter?
06:33And Tim?
06:35Do you know, it's funny how I can even remember this from the last time I was here.
06:38There's certain words come up a lot and there's one you've written there, Susie,
06:41Toastier. Toastier? Yes.
06:43That's strange, isn't it? It is odd, isn't it? Why is that?
06:45I have no idea.
06:47Rachel will know. It's a mathematical issue.
06:49I very rarely get a ten-letter word. Why is that?
06:52Bit of a squeeze. But there we are.
06:54Joe on 15, Ruth on seven.
06:56Joe, off you go. Numbers game.
06:58Can I get two from the top, please, Rachel?
07:00You can indeed, thank you, Joe. Two large ones.
07:02And four little ones for the first time today.
07:05And these four smalls are
07:07eight, one, four and another eight.
07:10And the large two, 25 and 75.
07:13And the target, 732.
07:16732.
07:41So, Joe.
07:43732.
07:45732. And Ruth.
07:47732. Joe.
07:49I did 75 plus 25.
07:5275 plus 25, 100.
07:54And then I took eight away from that.
07:56Minus 892.
07:58And I times that by eight.
08:00Times by the other eight for 736.
08:02And then I took away the four.
08:04Lovely. 732, well done.
08:06Ruth.
08:08Slightly differently. I did 75 plus 25.
08:10100.
08:12And then eight minus one is seven.
08:14Yep.
08:16And times those two together.
08:18700.
08:20And then four times eight is 32.
08:22The other eight, well done. 732 again.
08:24Well done. Very good.
08:26APPLAUSE
08:28So, 25 plays Ruth's 17.
08:30Close run thing. Plenty of time.
08:32We're going to a tea time teaser, which is car is hot.
08:36And the clue...
08:38Were these forms of transport made of fire?
08:40Were these forms of transport made of fire?
08:44BELL RINGS
08:53APPLAUSE
08:59Welcome back.
09:01I left with the clue, were these forms of transport made of fire?
09:04And the answer... Wait for it.
09:06Chariots, of course.
09:0825 to 17.
09:10Joey in the lead at the moment.
09:12Ruth, your chance to catch up.
09:14The letters came.
09:16OK, could I get a vowel, please? Thank you, Ruth.
09:18E. And another, please.
09:20O.
09:22And another.
09:24A.
09:26And a consonant.
09:28L.
09:30And another.
09:32And another.
09:34P.
09:36And another.

09:40And a vowel.
09:42O.

10:22Just five.
10:24Five and, I think, a six.
10:26Let's hear, Ruth.
10:28I got place.
10:30Rigato. Yes, musical term. Excellent.
10:32It's a type of pizza. Oh, is it?
10:34Oh, OK, it's a pizza.
10:36That's ligero pizza, isn't it?
10:38Well, very good. Well, I've got a six-letter word.
10:41Colgate, which you can't have.
10:43I know, it's brutal, isn't it? Yeah.
10:45Sparkle to it.
10:47I went to the dentist, he said, say R.
10:49I said, why? He said, my dog's died.
10:51LAUGHTER
10:53Very good. 31 plays 17.
10:55Joe, your letters came.
10:57Let's start with a consonant, please.
10:59Thank you, Joe. R.
11:01And another.
11:03M.
11:05And another.
11:07S.
11:09And a vowel.
11:11I.
11:13And another.
11:15E.
11:17And another.
11:19A.
11:21Consonant.
11:23P.
11:25X.
11:27And a final consonant, please.
11:29And a final N.
11:31Time starts now.
11:55MUSIC PLAYS
12:03Yes, Joe?
12:05Seven. A seven, Ruth?
12:07Seven. Yes, Joe?
12:09Spanner. And?
12:11Two spanners. Spanner, yes.
12:13Well done. Spanner in the works.
12:15Now, then. Very good.
12:17Take my knife in my hands.
12:19Well, Susie's come up with an eight-letter word.
12:21Er, panniers. Panniers.
12:23A pan has ears.
12:25LAUGHTER
12:27That's allowed, apparently.
12:29All right. 38-24, Joan lead.
12:31Ruth, your numbers game.
12:33Could I have one large and five small, please?
12:35You can indeed. Thank you, Ruth.
12:37One big one, five little ones for you.
12:39And for this round, your numbers are
12:41nine, six, ten,
12:43one, two,
12:45and the large one, 100.
12:47And the target...
12:49532.
12:51MUSIC PLAYS
13:21529.
13:23529. Yes, Joe?
13:25531, not written down.
13:27Come on, then.
13:29I did ten divided by two.
13:31Ten over two is five.
13:33And then I did
13:35100 plus six.
13:37106.
13:39Times the...
13:41530.
13:43And then I plus the one.
13:45Yeah, 5311 away. Well done.
13:47Not bad, but not perfect, Rachel.
13:49532. Is that a tricky one?
13:51A couple of ways. You could have said
13:53nine times ten is
13:5590. Minus one is
13:5789. Multiplied by
13:59six is 534.
14:01And take away the two for 532.
14:03Yes. Well done.
14:05APPLAUSE
14:07As ever.
14:09Well done.
14:1145 plays 24
14:13as we take our life in our hands.
14:15Yes. And turn to Tim Vine.
14:17Tim, how are you?
14:19Do you know, I wanted to tell the audience at home
14:21and everyone here a couple of silly things they could do
14:23because I've got a book with silly things in it.
14:25But first of all, let me tell you this.
14:27I was in a bar last night and I saw this bloke pouring a fizzy drink
14:29on his jumper. I said, what's that?
14:31He says, McCartney and Coke.
14:33Come on!
14:35I think with swimming, the only stroke I can do
14:37is the backstroke, which I've got to tell you
14:39completely ruined my snorkelling holiday.
14:43I've got some other jokes to tell you
14:45before we move on.
14:47I went to Egypt and I was in this Egyptian shop
14:49and I said, can I buy a glyphic?
14:51He said, no, you can only hire a glyphic.
14:53LAUGHTER
14:55I went on a cruise with my father
14:57and we were on a boat called the Quest for Adventure
14:59and it was a saga cruise full of old people
15:01and this old woman, she'd coughed
15:03and her teeth shot out into the sea
15:05and we had to turn back and go and get them
15:07and the ship was renamed the Quest for Adventure.
15:09LAUGHTER
15:11But I saw this...
15:13This old man, he was drowning, so I threw him a cork.
15:15Every little helps.
15:17End of anecdotes!
15:19APPLAUSE
15:25Very good.
15:27So you're taking these off to Australia.
15:29You're going to the International Comedy Festival in Melbourne, is it?
15:31Yes, I am, yes.
15:33Soon, soon.
15:35Last time I went there, I swam with dolphins
15:37and I had a great time.
15:39I actually had to dress up as a dolphin to do it,
15:41but...
15:43But we had a great time, me and those dolphins.
15:45We just clicked.
15:47It was great.
15:49Stop! Stop!
15:51Brilliant stuff, wonderful.
15:53Thank you, Tim. Now then,
15:55oh, dear, deep breaths all round
15:57and, Jo, let us go.
15:59Can I start with a consonant, please, Rachel?
16:01Thank you, Jo. R
16:03And another?
16:05K
16:07And a vowel?
16:09P
16:11And another?
16:13U
16:15And another?
16:17O
16:19And a consonant?
16:21P
16:23And another?
16:25S
16:27And another?
16:29D
16:31And a final...
16:33consonant, please.
16:35And a final V.
16:37MUSIC
16:39MUSIC
17:05Jo, just a six.
17:07A six. Ruth?
17:09Seven.
17:11Thank you. Jo?
17:13Um, pokers.
17:15Ruth? Divars.
17:17Very good.
17:19What else have we got over in the corner?
17:21What did you have there? You had spork as well, didn't you?
17:23What's spork?
17:25Spork, yes. I just like this one.
17:27It's a cross between a spoon and a fork.
17:29I think I've got one, actually.
17:31Plastic job. It's good for camping.
17:33Yeah.
17:35Daniel in the lead. And, Ruth, your letters game.
17:37Um, could I have a consonant, please?
17:39Thank you, Ru.
17:41L
17:43And another?
17:45F
17:47And a vowel, please?
17:49O
17:51And another?
17:53A
17:55And another?
17:57I
17:59Consonant?
18:01S
18:03Um, a consonant?
18:05H

18:09And a final?
18:11E
18:13Clock time.
18:15MUSIC
18:33MUSIC
18:43Yes, Ruth?
18:45Eight.
18:47An eight and?
18:49Two eights.
18:51I wonder. Yes, Ruth?
18:53Flashier.
18:55I thought so.
18:57Every chance.
18:59And the corner?
19:01Loafers.
19:03Ah, yes, the famous penny loafer.
19:0553 plays 39.
19:07And, Joe, off you go. Numbers game.
19:09Um, one from the top, please, Rachel.
19:11Thank you, Joe.

19:15And this round is
19:17three, ten,
19:19one, seven,
19:21two, and the large one, 75.
19:23And the target?
19:25873.
19:27873.
19:29MUSIC
19:31MUSIC
19:57Yes, Joe?
19:59Just one away, not written down.
20:01872.
20:03872. What about Ruth?
20:05872, written down.
20:07All right. So, Joe?
20:09Um, I did
20:1110 plus 2.
20:1310 plus 2 is 12.
20:15I times that by the 75.
20:17900.
20:19Then I did 3 plus 1.
20:213 plus 1 is 4.
20:23Times that by the 7.
20:2528.
20:27Yeah.
20:29Happy, Joe?
20:31Well done. All right.
20:33Now, then, Rachel,
20:35we do like perfection around here. 873.
20:37Um, I found one way.
20:39If you say 75 plus 2 plus 3
20:41is 80.
20:4310 plus 1 is 11.
20:45Times the two together for 880
20:47and take away the 7 for 873.
20:49Terrific. Well done.
20:51APPLAUSE
20:53Yes.
20:55As ever.
20:57So, 60 pays Ruth 46
20:59as we go into a tea-time teaser,
21:01which is Moody Man.
21:03And the clue, it sounds like I'm very cross
21:05about this fossilised mollusc.
21:07It sounds like I'm very cross
21:09about this fossilised mollusc.
21:11BELL RINGS
21:13MUSIC
21:19APPLAUSE
21:23APPLAUSE
21:25Welcome back.
21:27I left you with a clue.
21:29It sounds like I'm very cross
21:31about this fossilised mollusc,
21:33which is an ammonoid.
21:35Ammonoid. Susie, what's this?
21:37Yeah, showing you on the pen cam there.
21:39It's an extinct mollusc
21:41with a flat, coiled, spiral shell
21:43and an ammonite is an ammonoid fossil.
21:45Yeah.
21:47I happen to know about this.
21:49Because if you go deep into Morocco,
21:51you come across counters,
21:53you know, just tables in the desert,
21:55heaped with these things that you can buy for nothing.
21:57They're beautiful, aren't they?
21:59Wonderful. Fantastic.
22:01How do you buy something for nothing?
22:03Well, nothing-ish.
22:05You know, I mean, very little.
22:07I suppose you'd like to take them out of the country
22:09but they're fantastic, beautiful things.
22:11Extraordinary.
22:13And then they sell them in Pimlico Square for about £1,000.
22:15Not that I would do such a thing.
22:17But now let's turn to Ruth.
22:19Can I start with a consonant, please?
22:21Thank you, Ruth.
22:23M.
22:25And another?
22:27G.
22:29And another?
22:31D.
22:33And one more?
22:35S.
22:37A vowel, please?
22:39I.
22:41And another?
22:43O.
22:45And another?
22:47S.
22:49And the last one? R.
22:51Stand by.
23:17Ruth?
23:19Just a six.
23:21A six. And Joe?
23:23Just a six as well.
23:25Ruth?
23:27I got images.
23:29Thank you. Joe?
23:31Gained.
23:33And turning to the corner, Tim?
23:35Did you say gained?
23:37You've seen, Joe, there's no N.
23:39Sorry.
23:41But what else have we got there, Susie?
23:43Well, there is a nine.
23:45Nine is C-E-O-G-R-A-M-S.
23:48And they're characters that symbolise the idea of a thing
23:51rather than the sounds that you need to produce to voice it.
23:55So Chinese characters are classic examples.
23:57They're sort of pictorial rather than phonetic.
24:00I see.
24:02Does that make sense?
24:07Interesting. Like a pictogram, sort of.
24:09Ideogram. Very clever. Very clever.
24:12Joe. 62, Ruth, sped up to 52.
24:17Back with you, though. Letters game, Joe.

25:30Thank you, Joe. Boats.
25:32Boats and? Beast.
25:34Beast.
25:36There we go. Any improvements over there?
25:39I mean, Susie's found a word here
25:41that I wouldn't have thought you could have allowed,
25:43but it's boaties, yachties.
25:45Yes. Boating enthusiasts.
25:47It comes up, doesn't it, Susie, from time to time?
25:49It does. Unpleasant word.
25:5165 plays 57.
25:53Time for Susie's origins of words.
25:55Pin your ears back.
25:57Here comes a torrent of wonderful things.
26:00Well, I'm not sure how wonderful,
26:02cos I'm going to talk about bimbos today.
26:04Oh.
26:07Bimbo is defined in the dictionary
26:09as an attractive but unintelligent and frivolous woman.
26:12The point of this, actually,
26:14is that bimbos weren't women originally.
26:16They were very definitely men.
26:18And I've spoken before about words
26:20that have crossed gender over time.
26:22Bimbo is another example of this kind of word.
26:25It's a shortened form of bambino, baby,
26:27and it was originally used as an insult,
26:29very much an insult towards men
26:31who weren't acting in a particularly macho or manly way
26:34and a bit ugly and a bit weak.
26:36And baby, at the same time,
26:38became a term of affection for a girlfriend or a lover,
26:41and it's been that way for centuries,
26:43and of course we use it that way today.
26:45And so it's probably only natural
26:47that bimbos switched gender towards women
26:49who weren't acting as they should.
26:51And it became particularly popular
26:53during the Jazz Age in the 1920s, 30s and 40s.
26:56Women started cropping their hair,
26:58they wore scandalously short skirts,
27:00exposing their ankle,
27:02which was a complete no-no in those days.
27:04And then the term flew under the radar for quite a long time,
27:07which happens with words quite often,
27:09they just disappear for a while,
27:11and then they resurface when they're needed,
27:13in this case when politicians and their scandals
27:15started to hit the press,
27:17and the word caught on again.
27:19And from that moment on, bimbos applied to women.
27:21Interesting. Very interesting.
27:23Thank you very much, Susie, as ever.
27:2565 to Ruth's 57, close run thing.

32:22Times 25.
32:23Again, 225.

33:52Well, I might go, yeah.
33:53Last time I went to the races,
33:55I put everything I owned on one horse and it squashed it.
33:59You know, if you chop a horse in half,
34:01then bang the two halves together,
34:03it sounds like someone riding a coconut.
34:06That's two horse jokes on the trot.
34:08Three!

34:12Yes.
34:13Thank you very much.
