00:30Hello, everybody. It's Friday. It's Countdown.
00:33Another week almost under the belt and another week of afternoon spent together.
00:37I hope you've enjoyed it as we head into another weekend.
00:40And, Rachel Riley, love is in the air everywhere I look around
00:45because we have a challenger today who's been married for, wait for it, 61 years.
00:52Oh, wow. Hang on. Is a diamond a 60?
00:56Yeah.
00:56I'll have to check, right.
00:58So, what, 61, like a diamond plus a CZ?
01:00Yeah. It's a higher carat of a diamond. 61 years.
01:05That's an achievement.
01:06And I know we say that, oh, they've been married for X amount of time.
01:10But listen, and given the fact that he only looks about 50 years old,
01:13they might reach the world record.
01:14The world record, 86 years, 290 days.
01:21And that was Herbert and Zelmyra Fisher.
01:25I mean, that's the world record, which puts in the context how big 61 is.
01:29Yeah. Yeah.
01:29I've got just another 58 to go.
01:32Right, we'll get to him in a second, but let's head to Dictionary Corner.
01:34A marriage made in heaven always.
01:36It's Susie Dent and Joe Brand.
01:41And last in the distance is our champion, Andrew Barrett.
01:45We haven't talked about family, but as this is your fifth appearance,
01:47there's quite a clan, isn't there?
01:49Take me through.
01:50Yes, my family, I'm the youngest of six children.
01:54And you've got two daughters, four granddaughters, one grandson, all watching.
01:59Yes, that's right, correct, yes.
02:00There you go.
02:01And they know how to work me.
02:03Yeah.
02:05Well, listen, one more win and you'll have one for each grandchild.
02:09So there you go.
02:09Give them one each.
02:11Well, Dennis Kay, welcome.
02:13And I should say welcome back.
02:15So tell me all about the 60, 61 years with Rita.
02:19That's a wonderful innings.
02:20How did you meet?
02:21Well, before we got together, but it was a blind date, a friend of ours arranged.
02:29And she ended up dancing with somebody else and I ended up playing cards with the boys, as usual.
02:36And that was the only 61 years.
02:38Now, you're 84 now, so I don't mean to patronise him, but I can't believe that you're 84 years old.
02:43And you've been on here before when you were a fresh-faced, youthful 70-year-old.
02:47Yes.
02:48How did you get on?
02:491-3.
02:50Oh, 1-3 means business for you.
02:53Forget all this nice family business.
02:56It's business time.
02:57So good luck to both Dennis and Andrew.
02:59So we have a challenge with the kind of two champions, which I always love.
03:05Andrew, you're in the seat right now, so let's get some letters.
03:08Could I have a consonant, please?
03:10Thank you, Andrew.

04:19Funnies.
04:19Funnies.
04:20And Dennis?
04:21Fannies.
04:22And funnies as well.
04:23That's absolutely fine.
04:24I would use quite an old school word.
04:26Yeah, I think so.
04:27Particularly in North America, they're comic strips in newspapers, the funnies.
04:32Anything else, Suze?
04:33No, that was my seven as well.
04:35Not sure about Joe.
04:36Well, I am sure about Joe.
04:38This will be spectacular.
04:39It won't, but I've introduced a new, to add to the different TV series, CSI Fun.
04:48How did that go?
04:50Oh, there's the dead body.
04:53All right, Dennis, I was going to say your first time picking the letters, but you're only familiarising yourself with it.
04:58You've done it before.

06:09OK, so just checking Stander.
06:11That is in.
06:14But, unfortunately, you have to be a donator,
06:17not a donator, I'm afraid.
06:19Sorry, Andrew.
06:20Any legitimate dates?
06:22Well, leotards were there.
06:24One of our favourite words.
06:26It's also Lodestar, which is nice,
06:29and Follender, which is a botanist's specimen box.
06:32Beautiful.
06:32Well done, Susie.
06:33A triumvirate of eight.
06:36It's your brand, a nine?
06:37Yes, last drone.
06:39I'd be quite pleased to see the back of drones, wouldn't you?
06:43Annoying, aren't they?
06:44Right, let's get our first numbers round of the day.
06:46Andrew, you know the score.
06:48Two large numbers, please.
06:50I know what to do as well, because that's what you always go for.
06:52Thank you, Andrew.
06:53Two large, four little.
06:55Oh, I should stop asking.
06:56Save a few seconds.

07:52Perfect. I thought you might say that.
07:54Dennis, don't show me.
07:57Don't show me.
07:57I'm not trustworthy. You've got to show Andrew.
08:02It's going to be a good one today, you can just tell.

09:49That's time, Dennis. Six. And Andrew. Seven. The six. Polite. And the seven to tie it up. Exploit. There you go. Is seven the best we could muster? Yep, no better than exploit over here.
10:03Let me consult the dictionary of Joe Brand. Yes, I've got an eight. Of course. And now, if you think about mammoths and things like that, there's a lot of creatures that we just don't see anymore, including the ex-owl pig. Let's get more letters now, Andrew. Consonant, please. Thank you, Andrew. Vowel, please. I. Consonant. T. Vowel. A.
10:33Consonant. N. Consonant. M. Vowel. O. Consonant. G. Another consonant, please. Lastly, K. Half a minute.
11:03If you moat a castle, you surround it with a moat. So, very good indeed. Anything better? Nothing better than that. We had gammon for six.
11:16OK. Well, let's see after the exile pig. What have we got now?
11:19Well, another extinct creature, which managed to be a young cat and an old cat, and a human at the same time. That was Kit Mogman.
11:30Kit Mogman. Yeah.
11:32It's the worst superhero I've ever heard. Not buying that funny.
11:37Very good at catching mice, though.
11:40Ten more points up for grabs. Is it going to be another one of those seesaw battles involving, Andrew? Let's find out. More numbers with Dennis.
11:47One large, five small. Come on then, Dennis. Let's hit back. One large, five little coming for you.
11:53And the small ones are one, eight, one, six, and three, and a large one, twenty-five.

13:13Dixon Recording do you know how many times you've been on quite a lot I remember
13:17Des very well well right back to Richard Whiteley I love it yeah I love it well
13:24listen we get to ask you the questions in a Friday which I'm really excited about
13:28so I'll just jump straight in in your first week as a stand-up comedian the
13:33first time you stood on stage how many female comedians were there in the
13:37business well I did actually sort of count once like very early on and there
13:44were roughly 250 men on the circuit in London and 15 women Wow so it was a
13:50tiny amount really yeah I mean one thing I loved at this time in London I don't
13:55even remember this there's a magazine called City Limits and it would have all
14:00the comedy listing but it was really famous for Miss Prince all the time and I
14:05remember them once saying all women show you know which is unheard of because
14:10there's barely enough of us so sort of Joe Brands Hattie Hayridge Donna McPhail and
14:15Bernard Gill Hooley was in fact Brenda Gill so wrong and they used to do that sort of
14:23thing all the time it was brilliant Susie yeah I want to ask about a heckling
14:29because I remember quite a long time ago you said you actually quite enjoy big
14:34heckles because you get to deliver a comeback but have you ever been outdone by
14:37a heckle have I ever been oh well I must have done loads of times I mean I think the
14:43thing is that the thing that comics shouldn't do is keep trying to beat a
14:47heckler yeah they're good you know just acknowledge they've said something funny and
14:52kind of let them get on with it so I mean I'm just I'm just trying to think
14:57yeah loads of times yes Rachel I'll just ask about your lovely husband because
15:03he's the butt of many of your jokes have you ever got in trouble ever got home

15:11me no I mean his friends say to him how on earth do you put up with her saying
15:17those things about you and first of all he doesn't he doesn't know most of them but

20:12Is Rat Spain an oldie word?
20:14Yes.
20:15Yes.
20:15Wolf Spain and all sorts of things.
20:17Yes.
20:17It comes from an old English word banner meaning a thing bringing death.

21:35There's six, Dennis.
21:36Flumes.
21:37And Andrew.
21:39Flemish.
21:40Erm, it is the language of Flanders but unfortunately it does have a capital F.
21:45It's a proper noun, I'm afraid.
21:47Erm, I'm sorry about that.
21:49So the six counts, just one point in it.
21:52What did you have, Susie?
21:53Yes, far too late but there is a seven there.
21:54Mushily.
21:55Oh, nice.

23:10What a contest we have here.
23:11Andrew.
23:12Postage.
23:13Postage.
23:14And are you delivering the same word?
23:16Postage.
23:16Excellent.
23:17Postage it is.
23:18Anything else, Susie?
23:19Erm, there were a couple of eights there actually.
23:21Erm, pontages.
23:23And pontage is an odd term for a toll for crossing the bridge.
23:26Erm, and septagon, which is a seven-sided figure.
23:30Septagon.
23:31Pontages.
23:32I did notice goat came out and I got excited because I just think Joe might have spotted it.
23:36What have we got?
23:38Erm, I've got a seven and it's something I've always wanted to be, which is a cross between
23:43someone that goes on at their husband all the time and is like a sort of wiggly, unpleasant
23:50creature.
23:51A nugget.
23:52A nugget.
23:52I'm a nugget.
23:55Of all the words this week, I think that one needs to be in the dictionary.
23:58I really like it.
23:59OK, 63, 62, four rounds left, but none of them until after our final origins of words
24:06of the week.
24:07Well, erm, I'm going to try and address two queries from viewers today.
24:13Erm, both brilliant ones.
24:14The first comes from Richard Farrar from Ashington in Northumberland, who has asked where the word
24:20etymology comes from, and I don't think I've ever been asked this on Countdown, so it was
24:24a really nice one.
24:25Erm, it began with Greek.
24:26It began with Greek, as so many words do, erm, with Ancient Greek, erm, and a word meaning
24:31the study of words.
24:33It's got etum and then logos, and logos meaning a word.
24:37If you are a logophile, you are a word lover.
24:40Erm, and so it's the study of words which is fairly simple, but actually if you trace
24:44that, erm, I'm not pronouncing it probably correctly, but etum and logos all the way back
24:49to its ancient root, erm, it goes back to a word meaning true.
24:53So I love to think that, erm, etymologists, word detectives, whatever you like to call
24:58us, are there uncovering the truth, maybe a bit like word archaeologists, erm, so that's
25:03a lovely one.
25:04And another one came in from Margaret Sim from Rainierman Essex, and she says, when my son
25:09was a child, we often use the phrase, as fresh as a daisy when he had a bath.
25:14Can you tell us how this phrase came to be?
25:17And erm, at the risk of making a lot of regular viewers sigh, because they will know that daisy
25:22is one of my favourite etymologists, erm, I will tell you that it is all about the etymology,
25:27the truth behind the name of the daisy, er, because it goes back to the Old English for
25:32the day's eye.
25:33The eye of the day, because it opens its petals at dawn, erm, to reveal that central sunny disk
25:39inside, and then it closes them again at dusk.
25:42And so at dawn you are fresh, ready to go, matutinal as it used to be called, you know, sort
25:47of happy and cheery in the morning, sort of as fresh as the daisy is, as fresh as the
25:51morning dew.
25:52So I think that's lovely.
25:53And the daisy also, of course, erm, crops up in another, another very sort of child-like
25:59word, or a word from the world of childhood, and that's upsa daisy.
26:03If a child falls over, you say upsa daisy, trying to sort of say it's okay, and then get
26:08them up again.
26:09And actually that began as upsa daisy, erm, meaning woe is me, it was, it's a bit like,
26:15erm, alack the day, you know, rue the day if you like.
26:18Erm, but we decided to water it down a little bit and introduce a flowery note, so upsa daisy,
26:24it became upsa daisy, and erm, yeah, it's, I just think that's a really sweet one.
26:29And lackadaisical, similarly, began with alack the day, woe is me, you know, rue the day,
26:35but actually again, we decided to bring the lovely daisy into the affair.
26:38So if you're now lackadaisical, you just are a bit mopey, and you can't be bothered to
26:42do anything.

31:28Ticking all the boxes.

31:44Very good.
31:49Well, what a contest it has been today.
31:51And played in the greatest spirit.
31:54Even just before that numbers round, Dennis just said, good luck, Andrew.
31:58The sportsmanship has been fantastic.
32:01What a joy to just be part of it.
32:03But it all just comes down to 10 points.
32:05Who's going to get them?
32:06As we reveal today's crucial countdown conundrum.
32:10It's Dennis.
32:20Conniving.
32:21Is it conniving?
32:23It isn't, Andrew.
32:25Dennis, I thought it was conniving as well.
32:38Dennis, I thought it was conniving as well.
32:50I was so surprised when the board didn't turn around.
32:52But, you know, Dennis didn't get it.
32:54Andrew didn't get it.
32:55Anybody else?
32:56I think Dennis is going to be oiveying, because I think it's conveying.
32:59Oh, so, so close.
33:01Let's take a look and see if Rachel's right.
33:03Yes.
33:06Dennis.
33:07Give our love to Rita.
33:09Give our love to the whole clan.
33:11It's just been great to have you today.
33:12It's been a great feeling.
33:13There you go.
33:14Andrew, you've lasted the whole week, my friend.
33:18Joe, absolute treat to be on countdown with you.
33:22Oh, thanks.
33:22You know, just part of the countdown history.
33:25And just to sit and listen to you all week's been a real joy.
33:28I've got sore cheekbones.
33:29I really do.
33:29Just been laughing at you.
33:32Susie, see you Monday?
33:33Yeah, lovely to see Dennis again.
33:35Yeah, really good.
33:35Do you remember Dennis?
33:36I do now remember Dennis.
33:38I didn't when he came in, but I do now, yes.
33:40Who could forget Dennis?
33:41Yes.
33:41Well, you could, Rich.
33:42You weren't here.
33:43Well, I didn't have a chance to remember him.
33:46It's a bit unfair.
33:47I'll remember him next time.
33:48Come back in a few years.
33:49Let's just take one day at a time.
