00:04APPLAUSE
00:31Hello and welcome to Countdown.
00:33If you haven't noticed, it is Friday the 13th.
00:37It's also the birthday of Stevie Wonder.
00:40He's 72 today. Rachel?
00:42Happy birthday, Stevie Wonder. Indeed.
00:44My Zayden, my grandad, was born on Friday the 13th
00:48and then he had a stroke on the 13th and died on the following 13th.
00:52Oh, that's so sad. A lot of 13ths in our family.
00:55But Friday the 13th was a happy one, so we like those.
00:58Good. Let us meet our contestants.
01:01Ryan is back for the third time.
01:03He's an investment banker and he's quite good at the game.
01:07And his wife's a doctor.
01:09That was a very good choice, the doctor wife, wasn't it?
01:12Yes, I've done very well for myself.
01:15And we've got Sarah, who's from Yorkshire.
01:17Yes. What do you do, Sarah?
01:19I own a bar. Do you? Yes.
01:21What's it called, the bar? It's called The Burley Tap.
01:24And how big, how small?
01:26It's quite small.
01:28You can only sort of get around 30 people inside,
01:31so it is quite small.
01:33And are there pubs in your village?
01:35Yes, there's quite a few.
01:37Why would I go to your bar and not one of the pubs?
01:39We're the only bar in the village
01:41and we have some really nice customers,
01:44really nice view across the village from where we are,
01:47right in the centre.
01:48Any music?
01:50I play some music, yeah.
01:52Do you do any singing in the bar?
01:54No.
01:55Not even at the end of the night when you've had a few?
01:58That would be telling.
02:00Hi, Susie. Hello.
02:02And hello again, Michael Crick.
02:04We really are today going to talk about Manchester United
02:08and Alex Ferguson.
02:10Right, good.

03:21Good. Sarah?
03:22Just a five.
03:23What's your five?
03:24Prego.
03:25Ryan?
03:26Ergodic.
03:28OK, so I'll start with prego.
03:30That's not in, unfortunately.
03:32Sorry, Sarah.
03:33What did you think it was?
03:35Sort of before you go somewhere?
03:37Sadly, not in.
03:38OK. I'm sorry. Ryan, what was yours?
03:40Ergodic.
03:41Can you spell that for me?
03:42E-R-G-O-D-I-C.
03:44OK, absolutely brilliant.
03:46Mathematical term denoting systems or processes
03:50which impinge on all points in a given space,
03:53and, Rachel, help me out, can be represented statistically
03:56by a reasonably large selection of points.
03:59I would agree, Susie. Yes.
04:02Can you go further than that, Ryan?
04:04No, that's exactly what I was going to say.
04:07We're all on the same page.

05:27And in the corner?
05:29I've got palest or metals.
05:32That's only six.
05:33Yes.
05:34There is another eight, though, with septimal,
05:37another mathematical term, actually,
05:39relating to the number seven, septimal.
05:41Thank you.

06:41Nine times four, 36.
06:43Times two?
06:44Times two, 72.
06:46Times nine?
06:47Times nine is 648.
06:52Oh, that's what you declared.
06:54Rachel?
06:55Yes, there was a way with this one.
06:57Nine times nine, 81.
07:00Times that by four for 324.
07:04Add three for 327.
07:08Times that by two for 654.

07:16APPLAUSE
07:21Thank you, Rachel.
07:22First teaser.
07:23Oust even, oust even.
07:25And the clue.
07:26This will help oust even the most troublesome of babies.
07:30This will help oust even the most troublesome of babies.
07:35See you in a minute.
07:45APPLAUSE
07:52I left you with the clue.
07:54This will help oust even the most troublesome of babies.
07:58And the answer is von Tooth.
08:00Suzie?
08:01Yes, some babies are born by von Tooth extraction,
08:04so it's like a sort of suction device that's applied to the head.
08:07It's a bit like a sink plunger, only a little bit more sophisticated.
08:10And they're taken out that way.
08:12I didn't know that. Yes.
08:14Is that different to forceps?
08:16Yeah, forceps are like sort of pliers.
08:18Yeah.
08:19It all sounds very brittle, doesn't it?
08:21But a von Tooth really is a suction cup.
08:23Yeah.
08:24Thank you.
08:25The scores are 22 to zero.
08:28Sarah, who owns a bar, how did you decide to buy a bar?
08:32Very good question.
08:34I had worked in corporate life
08:36and just wanted to do something completely different.
08:39Had it been a bar before, the premise?
08:41And then previous to that, it was a Greengrocers.
08:43And are you behind the bar every night?
08:46Pretty much, pretty much.
08:48I've got one other member of staff who does one day a week for me.
08:52So it's pretty much me.
08:53If you come in, that's all you'll see.
08:55And can you do a song and a dance, if they ask?
08:59Well, I'd rather get someone else to do a turn than me, but...
09:02OK. Your letters.
09:04Can I have a consonant, please?
09:06Thank you, Sarah.

10:13Untimed.
10:14Ryan?
10:15Minute.
10:16There's no untimed, I'm afraid.
10:18There's untimed, but not untimed.
10:21Sorry about that, Sarah.
10:23In the corner?
10:24There is a seven, though, with pinetum,
10:26which is a plantation of pine trees or other conifers.
10:29Thank you.
10:30Ryan, are you into music?
10:32Yes, I do like music.
10:34I've been listening to a lot of music during lockdown,
10:36when I've been working from home,
10:38when I don't have people around to talk to.
10:40A lot of jazz and hip-hop, that kind of thing.
10:43Do investment bankers from Glasgow go to music festivals?
10:46Yeah, I went to Glastonbury twice.
10:49I went in 2003, which was very, very good,
10:52and 2005, which was very, very wet.
10:55That's what happens if you go to Glasgow.
10:57Yes, the second time I went was enough to tell me
11:00that I've probably had enough of them.
11:02It was not as much fun.
11:04Your letters.
11:05OK, I'll have a consonant, please, Rachel.
11:08Thank you, Ryan.

12:16Five.
12:17There is goatish for another seven.
12:19And there is an eight there, quite an unusual word.
12:22Achiotes or achiotes.
12:24So, A-C-H-I-O-T-E-S.
12:27It's another name for the annatto tree,
12:29a tropical tree that yields annatto, which is an orange-red dye.
12:33Thank you.
12:34APPLAUSE
12:39Sarah, your numbers.
12:41Can I have two large, please?
12:43You can indeed, thank you, Sarah.
12:45Two large, four little.
12:47I wonder if anyone ever orders at the bar.
12:49These are not shots, these are numbers,
12:51and we have two, two, eight, seven,
12:55and the big ones, 25, and 100,
12:58and the target, 897.

13:37898.
13:38Sarah?
13:39Seven plus two.
13:42Seven plus two, nine.
13:44Times that by the 100.
13:46900.
13:47Take away the two.
13:49898.
13:50And then take away the other two.
13:52Oh, we should have stopped there.
13:55You've used them, I'm afraid.
13:56That was one way, but wrong declaration, I'm afraid.
13:59Ryan?
14:00Well, that's what I've done.
14:03Rubbing salt into the wound there.
14:06Rachel?
14:07Yes, there were a couple of ways for this one.
14:09You could have said seven plus two plus 100 is 109.
14:15Times that by eight for 872 and add on the 25.
14:20Well done.
14:22APPLAUSE
14:26Michael Crick, I know that you are a devoted Manchester United fan.
14:32Your biography of Alex Ferguson,
14:34were you, when you started it,
14:36as keen on Alex Ferguson as you were with the club?
14:41I'm a great fan of Ferguson in terms of all the things he's done.
14:44I mean, United, he's the greatest manager United have had, really.
14:49You know, he won the league 12 times,
14:52the Premier League and the European Cup twice.
14:55But I'm a journalist first and a United fan second,
14:58and it had to be a rounded portrait, had to be thorough.
15:01But, I mean, he's a man of extraordinary talents and skills,
15:04and Ferguson would have been successful
15:06in virtually any walk of life that he went into.
15:08You know, he might have gone into politics or trade unionism or business.
15:11In fact, he did run a couple of businesses at one stage.
15:14I think the only career that he wouldn't have been good at
15:17would have been diplomacy.
15:18Do you mean that you liked him less at the end?
15:21I think I did, yeah.
15:22I mean, he can be an incredibly charming and nice man,
15:26and I've experienced that in meeting him.
15:29But if he falls out with you,
15:32often it can mean he falls out with you forever.
15:35There's no coming back.
15:36As you did find this dark side of him,
15:39were you not obliged to put it to him?
15:43Not really, because he would have denied it,
15:45and the lawyers were happy with...
15:47We got enough evidence from, you know, loads of sources.
15:52We spoke to, you know, hundreds of people at Old Trafford.
15:55I had a little research team.
15:57And so far, we haven't had any legal...
16:00I mean, this is 20 years ago this book came out,
16:02so a lot has happened since I wrote it,
16:06particularly in the latter years at United,
16:08where he went on to much greater success at United,
16:11and then, of course, the way in which the club
16:13has really fallen quite badly since he left in 2013.
16:18Have you spoken to him since you wrote the book?
16:20No.
16:21I don't mix in football circles.
16:23I'm just an ordinary fan. I go to the games.
16:26You know, I'm not...
16:27It's not as if I'm likely to bump into him.
16:30Finally, the football managers of his era
16:35and back, Doherty, Shankly, Brian Clough,
16:39it's all changed a great deal.
16:41Do you think it's changed for the better now,
16:43with many more foreign managers?
16:45Yeah, I think that in that era, you had football managers,
16:48many of them Scots, of course, who lived by...
16:51Very aggressively.
16:53Nowadays, you've got to be a lot more subtle about it,
16:55because a lot of these players are better paid than the manager,
16:58and they're in huge demand,
17:00and you can't afford to ball them out face-to-face
17:03in the way that Ferguson would have done 25 years ago.
17:06And the whole art of management has changed and moved on
17:09and become so much more sophisticated.
17:12For the better.
17:13For the better, really, yeah.
17:15Although, in United's case, they haven't found a manager
17:18to match Ferguson by any means at all,
17:21because, you know, the club is...
17:23And Liverpool and City, much to the horror of us United supporters,
17:28are just in an indifferent league to us right now.
17:31Michael Crick, thank you.
17:33APPLAUSE
17:37Scores are 42-0.

19:07Sarah, who are the most annoying customers?
19:10I can't tell you that.
19:11Would you rather have male customers or female customers?
19:15Both is fine.
19:17We tend to get quite a few men in at tea time.
19:20Why don't they go home to their wives at tea time?
19:23Well, that's a very good question.
19:25And who gets the most drunk, men or women?
19:29Women.
19:30Maybe they drink more because their husbands go to your bar
19:34at tea time.
19:35I think so.
19:36Your letters.

25:28MUSIC
25:41Ryan.
25:42Eight.
25:43Good. Sarah?
25:44Just a five, sorry.
25:45What's your five?
25:47Saked.
25:49Ryan?
25:50Steadied.
25:51Steadied is very, very good.
25:53Yeah, it's in the dictionary.
25:55And did you say saked, Sarah?
25:57Yes.
25:58I'm not sure...
26:00That one's not in, I'm afraid.
26:02That is good, steadied, isn't it?
26:04Yes, steadied the ship. Yep.
26:06Michael?
26:07Deeds and dated.
26:09Or sated, although I didn't write it down.
26:11Yes, that's there too.
26:13And sedated, also a good one, seven.
26:15Oh, yes.
26:16And over to Suzy.
26:18Well, I often talk about the stars when it comes to etymology
26:22because so many of our English words
26:24are wrapped around them in quite beautiful ways
26:26and in quite surprising ways.
26:28I mean, I think some of them we could guess at,
26:30like an asterisk from aster, meaning a little star.
26:34Astronauts often talk about being a moonsailor.
26:36And disaster is another one.
26:38A disaster, even up until Shakespearean times,
26:41was something that happened
26:43because of a calamitous convergence of the stars.
26:45So it's got aster in it as well.
26:47Desire goes back to the Greek,
26:49sider or sidera, for a star.
26:51So to desire was to almost wish upon the stars for something.
26:54To consider was to study the shape of the constellations
26:58to see whether or not you should do something.
27:01So to consider it in that way.
27:03And there's also a beautiful word,
27:05which I think really probably resonates for a lot of us,
27:07you know, recent times, desiderate,
27:09which is to really grieve for something that you've lost
27:13that is no longer there, which I just think is beautiful.
27:16But just so many of our words, I think, as I say,
27:19are kind of...the stars are embedded in them in some way.
27:23But more obviously, the word galaxy, I think,
27:26is a really lovely one as well
27:28because it's a system of millions and millions of stars.
27:30And if you imagine ancient astronomers gazing up at the sky,
27:34they would see these stars at night
27:37as a kind of band of really, really pale light.
27:39And to our ancestors, I think,
27:41these tightly packed stars did look really white, like milk.
27:45And so the Romans named them Via Lactea,
27:49which we then translated as Milky Way
27:51because that's very much what they thought.
27:53It was a kind of milky white band.
27:55And the ancient Greeks had a similar idea as well.
27:57So they called the band of stars Galaxius.
27:59And that too goes back to the idea of milk.
28:03So it's, you know, you can think about confectionery as well.
28:06Obviously, all kind of tied together.
28:08And just to throw in a word that has nothing really to do with stars
28:11but everything to do with milk,
28:13just because, again, it's quite surprising,
28:15and that's the word lettuce,
28:17and lac meaning milk, which gave us lactate and lactose, etc,
28:20because if you squeeze a petal of lettuce,
28:23you will get little milky-coloured juice coming out.
28:25Thank you, Susie.
28:30Scores 72-0. Sarah, your letters.
28:33Consonant, please.
28:35Thank you, Sarah.

29:15MUSIC
29:38Sarah?
29:40Six. Ryan?
29:42Seven. What's your six, Sarah?
29:44Ryan? Lagoons.
29:46I was with you with school there, and then I just saw that the C was a G.
29:50But lagoons is lovely.
29:52And there's one more, seven, over here,
29:56which is gasohol, a mixture of petrol and ethanol
29:59used in internal combustion engines.
30:01Did you know that, Michael?
30:03I didn't, no.
30:05It's quite unusual, to be fair.
30:07And my word, I don't know if I've spelt it right
30:09on whether you can have it in the singular, is galosh, as in galoshes.
30:12You can have a single galosh, usually galoshes,
30:15but it's a waterproof overshoe.
30:17Oh, Walter!
30:19Ryan, your letters.
30:21I'll have a consonant, please, Rachel.
30:23Thank you, Ryan. R.

31:20Ryan? Seven.
31:22Good. Sarah? Five.
31:24What's your five? Randy.
31:26Ryan? Yearned.
31:28Yes, both very good words.
31:30In the corner?
31:32Well, what about randier?
31:34You can be randier than the next person.
31:36That is in the dictionary.
31:38That's in there as well.
31:40And I don't think drainer has any connection to those,
31:42but that's in there as well.
31:44Thank you.
31:46Sarah, your numbers.
31:48Can I have three large, please?
31:50You're not making it easy for yourself, are you?
31:52You've chosen a hard one and three little ones
31:54for the final time this week.
31:56Come on, numbers, come on.
31:58We have six, nine, seven, 50, 25 and 100.

32:44OK.
32:46Six times 50?
32:48Six times 50, 300.
32:50100, take away 25.
32:52Is 75.
32:54Nine minus seven is two.
32:56So 300 plus 75, take the two.
32:58That's the only way I saw.
33:00Not the easiest one.
33:02Not the one we were all hoping for there, Sarah.
