00:00Thank you for joining us.
00:30Good afternoon, good afternoon, noisy crowd in today.
00:34Good afternoon and welcome to the Countdown Studio.
00:37Here we are, the very start of October,
00:40and of course there are Oktoberfests springing up all around us.
00:43It started in Germany, and in fact, the great Munich Oktoberfest,
00:48it's in 184th year, finishes tomorrow,
00:51but for some reason or other, everybody thinks they want an Oktoberfest,
00:55and in fact they're popping up all over the country.
00:57I'm told here, Edinburgh to Brighton, Birmingham to Norwich.
01:00Have you been to any Oktoberfest in recent years?
01:03I'm not a big beer drinker, I'm more of a wine-toberfest kind of girl,
01:08which they don't do yet, but maybe next year.
01:10Next year.
01:11They don't need to start it.
01:12It's a funny thing, something's happened to me.
01:15Well, quite a lot of things have happened to me, actually.
01:17But until quite recently, I did enjoy a glass of wine in the evening with supper,
01:24and I've turned to beer.
01:27Isn't that interesting?
01:28Well, get yourself to an Oktoberfest then.
01:30Where do I go? Norwich? No.
01:32Edinburgh, Brighton, Birmingham.
01:33There we go.
01:34I'll go to Birmingham.
01:35Perfect stuff.
01:36Now, Owen Jackson is back, squeaked in from County Waterford.
01:41God, you're getting to live in dangerous waters these days, Owen.
01:44Yeah, I shouldn't still be here.
01:46I call it the look of the Irish, I think.
01:47And you saw off a very good player in Martin Hunter on Friday
01:50to keep your run going, so good luck to you.
01:53Thank you very much.
01:53You're feeling good? You had a quiet weekend?
01:55Yeah.
01:56Well done.
01:57Not too much party.
01:58All right.
01:59Now, I don't know whether Jacob Gardner's been out on the party circuit,
02:03but he's here now, a young international tourism graduate from Wakefield,
02:07recently graduated from Leeds University?
02:10Leeds Beckett, yeah.
02:11Yeah.
02:11Brilliant.
02:12And you're off to Paris now.
02:14What is this?
02:15A sort of placement, is it?
02:17Yeah, so I have a volunteering placement.
02:20I'll go to Paris next week.
02:21What will you be doing?
02:23Have you got any inkling yet?
02:24Yeah, so I'm going to be in an elderly residence,
02:26entertaining elderly people with Alzheimer's.
02:29That's a very good thing to do.
02:32Not an easy thing to do, I think.
02:34It's quite intense.
02:35Yeah, I'm sure.
02:35But you build some really good relationships with residents,
02:39so I'm looking forward to it.
02:41It's a great thing to do.
02:42Well, good for you, Jacob.
02:43And a big round of applause for Jacob and Owen Jackson.
02:48APPLAUSE
02:49Good for you, Jacob.
02:54And over in the corner, of course, Susie,
02:57and the wonderful John Kulshall comedian
03:00and just a great impressionant.
03:02On Friday, you gave us one of the great impersonations
03:06of the 45th President of the United States,
03:08Donald J. Trump.
03:10It's one of those where reality outperforms comedy.
03:14LAUGHTER
03:14But more from you later.
03:17It was a treat, I've got to tell you.
03:19It was a treat.
03:20Now, Owen, let's have a letters game, shall we?
03:22Good afternoon, Rachel.
03:23Good afternoon, Owen.
03:24Can I kick it off with a consonant, please?

04:13Owen.
04:32Just a seven there.

04:44Saucer and crusade.
04:45John?
04:46Yes, there was an eight there.
04:49Caroused is there for eight.
04:51And another one, we wondered if it was, well, I wondered if it was two words at first.
04:55But no, apparently, door case is one word and would count for eight.
05:00Very good.
05:01Door case.
05:06Seven points to Owen.
05:08And it's Jacob's Letters game.

06:44Let's see what sort of show we get.
06:46Um, Meows was there for six.
06:50Donald Trump does have a cat on his head, so it's done meows together.
06:54Appropriate.
06:56Very good.
06:57And Susie?
06:58Um, no, it's really tricky, that one.
07:00It was?
07:01Yeah, we've stuck with six.
07:02All right, thank you.
07:03So 12 points due, Owen, and numbers for Owen.

08:51again.
09:06Welcome back, welcome back, I left you with the clue, she never stops buying new things,

09:18that's the answer, 22 plays 10, Jacob on 10, and it's Jacob's letters game.

14:09um so the way i did it was i multiplied eight by nine for 72 yep and then added seven and
14:17subtracted one added seven take one for 78 and then added on the other numbers
14:23well done well done well done 45 plays 10 as we turn to john now then sir what have you got for us now
14:38well um i write a column in the sky at night magazine called exoplanet excursions which tries
14:46to give a sense of what we would see and feel and experience if we were to travel to planets many
14:52many light years away from our solar system around other stars and the rate at which they're being
14:59discovered are incredible now almost weekly and one of the most important in recent times were around
15:06an ultra cool uh dwarf red star called trappist one and uh that just fascinates me the the chance to get
15:14to an alien world like that and actually study these alien environments but uh the great patrick
15:21moore and the great professor brian cox usually they always have a way to crystallize these things
15:25very different styles though sir patrick moore would probably say well the trappist one system
15:3039 light years away so the light we're receiving from it now is reaching as it began its journey when
15:34the commodore's three times a lady was number one of the charts very interesting indeed but can we
15:39reach there where we would have to travel at the speed of light for 39 years so it's beyond our
15:42technology when we're going to view this we just don't know
15:45professor brian cox would probably say to reach the trappist one system you would have to travel
15:54at the speed of light but that could be very distorting to all the laws of physics that we know
16:00but if you were to travel there in a jumbo jet it would take millions and millions and millions
16:07a passionate man 45 plays 10 and now owen it's your letters game take it away thank you

19:47No.
19:47John, Susie?

20:57Oh, I got one away. It's eight of three, but it's not fully written down. And how about Jacob? I'm way off at 650.
21:07Too far? Yeah. Let's try Owen, though, shall we? Eight of three? Yeah. I did five plus three for eight. Five plus three is eight.
21:14Then multiply that by two. Is 16. Multiply the 16 by the 50. Is 800. And there's an extra three to add on, then.
21:22And there is indeed for one away. Yeah. Well done. How tricky is that one, Rach?
21:26I thought I had it, but I don't. So you'll have to come back to me. Certainly will. Let's go to a tea time teaser, shall we?
21:31It's our forces and the clue. Do the quartet each get a goal or is it 80? Do the quartet each get a goal or is it 80?
21:56Welcome back. Welcome back. I left you with a clue. Do the quartet each get a goal or is it 80? And the answer to that one is four score.

23:28What about Owen?
23:29I have a seven.
23:31Which is?
23:32Gauzier.
23:33Gauzier.

25:07Well done, Owen.
25:07You're up to 73, and now we turn to Susie for her wonderful origins of words.
25:13I would say thanks to Ian Dunn, who emailed in to say, where does the term full stop come
25:19from in our punctuation?
25:21And modern punctuation owes, it turns out, a lot to someone called Aristophanes, and he
25:26was a librarian from the third century BC, and he grew more and more frustrated with the
25:32difficulties of reading unbroken text in the hundreds of thousands of scrolls that were
25:37housed at his library in Alexandria.
25:39And it was he, thanks to this frustration, who introduced the notion of marking texts
25:45for rhythm and sense.
25:47And his breakthrough was to suggest that readers could annotate their documents and just sort
25:53of break up this unbroken stream of texts with dots of ink, and they would be at the
25:56middle, the top, or the bottom of each line.
26:00And they would corresponded to pauses of increasing length that would be inserted between the formal
26:04parts of speech, so they were the comma, the colon, and the periodos, as they called it.
26:09There wasn't quite punctuation as we know it, but Aristophanes definitely set us on the
26:14way to where we are today.
26:16As it turns out, the Romans scrapped all of this.
26:18But, of course, eventually punctuation prevailed, much more sophisticated symbols came about.
26:24And Aristophanes' dot survives in the full stop.
26:27And full stop was originally used to mean the end of a speech, and Shakespeare had used
26:32it in that way, in The Merchant of Venice and other plays.
26:35But it made absolute sense for that full stop name to be taken to mark the end of a sentence,
26:41a complete break in meaning, if you like.
26:43And there it has stayed to this day.
26:45But, yeah, it all goes back to the librarian Aristophanes, which I found quite fascinating.
26:49Fantastic.
26:53Very good.
26:56Excellent.
26:57Thanks, Susie.
26:57So, 73, then it's 14, and we turn to Jacob.
27:02Jacob, let us game.
27:04OK, so could I start with a consonant, please?
27:06Thank you, Jacob.

30:02Uh, Fassan.
30:04Fassan and?
30:05Uh, Tawtons.
30:06Tawtons.
30:07Uh, yep, absolutely fine.
30:10So, 86 to 14 as we go into the final numbers game.
30:14Yes, Jacob? Your go.
30:16Uh, so could I stick with two big and four small, please, Rachel?
30:19Oh, of course you can. Thank you, Jacob.
30:20Two large, four little for the final one of the day.
30:23And this selection is seven, eight, one, four, 25 and 75.
30:31And the target, 765.
30:34Seven, six, five.
30:35MUSIC PLAYS
30:47Jacob, 7, 9, 1, but not written down.
31:12All right, let's turn to Owen.
31:14What have you got?
31:14I got 7, 6, 3, but it also is not written down.
31:18All right.
31:19I think you're safe to go.
31:21Okay, so I added the big numbers, 25 and 75.
31:2525 plus 75, 100.
31:28And also added on the 8, actually.
31:30108, so, yeah, 108.
31:32Yeah, and then multiplied all that stuff by 7.
31:35756.
31:36And then added on...
31:38Oh, no, sorry, I've done it wrong.
31:40I actually did it by 9, the 109.
31:42I made...
31:43Never mind.
31:45It's actually 109 by 7.
31:47That's what I'm meant to do.
31:47Never mind.
31:48Ah, I'm afraid without it being written down.
31:50That's OK.
31:51I have...
31:52No, I don't have it written down either.
31:53Never mind.
31:53Sorry, Owen.
31:54It's OK.
31:55I just need to be less dumb.
31:56I think what we're going to do is call a halt to this.
31:59I'd ask Rachel to crack it for us.
32:017, 6, 5?
32:02Um, yes, this was possible if we say 75 minus 25 is 50, plus the 1 is 51, and then 8 plus 7 is 15, and times them together.
32:13That's the way.
32:14Thanks, Rachel.
32:15Spot on as ever.
32:20So, 86 plays Jacob's 14 as we go into the final round, chaps.
32:24So, fingers on buzzers.
32:27Let's reveal today's Countdown Conundrum.
32:59Nope.
33:03Foxed.
33:03We're foxed here.
33:04But in the audience, I want to see brave people.
33:07I see a lot of hands, actually.
33:09Yes, you, sir.
33:09Blue shirt.
33:10Yes, oppressed.
33:12Oppressed.
33:13Let's see whether you're right.
33:15Oppressed.
33:16Well done.
33:20Oppressed.
33:21Well done.
