00:05APPLAUSE
00:31Good afternoon and welcome to Countdown Studio.
00:35Parents embarrassing their children.
00:38There's a survey, Rachel, there's a survey out.
00:411,058 children were asked, the age between six and 15,
00:46about the things that most embarrass them about their parents.
00:50Can I just read out a few of these stats here?
00:52Great, great. Thank you.
00:547%... I'm sorry to read this, actually.
00:577% said that hugging and kissing them in public was hugely...
01:01I kiss my children, who are now in their 30s and 40s, all the time.
01:05I think you should. So I think that's silly.
01:08Top of the list, with 16%, was parents singing.
01:13Oh. What? Yes, I'm with that.
01:15I don't think I ever heard my parents singing.
01:17I can't sing a single note.
01:19Neither can my parents, but it doesn't stop them.
01:22Especially my dad.
01:24My kids, actually, were very specific.
01:26And one of them said,
01:27my dad dances in the street, if he thinks I'm misbehaving,
01:30just to embarrass me. That's a bit unkind, isn't it?
01:33And secondly, my dad sings,
01:35when you're happy and you know it, clap your hands when I'm annoyed.
01:39That would drive you into a fury, wouldn't it?
01:41That's irritating. I don't know.
01:43Come on, you must have embarrassed your parents at some stage or another.
01:47I love, there was one story of a father who didn't like
01:50his younger daughter tweeting or Instagramming all these photos
01:53and chow parts and all the rest of it.
01:55So whenever she did one, he'd get pretty much the same clothes
01:58and he'd recreate it and post it himself to embarrass her into stopping.
02:02Oh, dear. Did it work? Thank God my dad's never done that.
02:05I think it did.
02:06Yeah, I mean, one picture of your dad in a crop top and pigtails
02:09is enough to cut that behaviour out.
02:11Gosh, that really is growing some, isn't it? All right.
02:14Now, Rach, we've got David Shipley back,
02:16retired chemical engineer from Yarm.
02:19And on Friday, we saw David's second win.
02:21How are you feeling? You had a restful weekend, I trust?
02:23I've recovered, yes. Excellent. Well done.
02:25Well, now you're joined by Phil Davies, a postman from Chelmsford
02:29who put in a 30-year stint with the police force as CID.
02:35CID, I guess you started as a constable on the beat,
02:38and then Special Branch. That's right, yeah.
02:40Excellent. Excellent.
02:42Well, you're very welcome here, both of you.
02:44Let's have a big round of applause for Phil and David.
02:47APPLAUSE
02:52And over in the corner after, I trust, a very restful weekend,
02:56Susie, of course, joined once again,
02:58until we can persuade her to come back,
03:00the wonderful Susanna Lipscomb, historian broadcast.
03:04And, in fact, in a sense, you're now on this wonderful panel show,
03:08insert name here with... Who else is on that with you?
03:11Sue Perkins chairs it, and Josh Whitacombe and Richard Osmant,
03:14and then a variety of comedians.
03:16You're there as a historian, but it's a lively show.
03:19It's very lively, yes. It's great fun.
03:21Good for you. All right.
03:23Let's move on now to the serious business of the day.

13:19Minus four.

13:25Oh, I haven't got another four, have I?
13:27Sorry, David.
13:28Phil, you're in.
13:29OK, so 25 times eight times four.
13:32Times eight times four, 800.
13:34Take away ten.
13:36Yeah, one away.
13:37789.
13:38Yes, if you say 25 times four is 100.
13:43Take away two for 98.
13:46Times that by eight for 784.
13:49And add on the five, that's 789.
13:51Fabulous.
13:52APPLAUSE
13:55As ever, spot on, of course she is.
13:5729 plays 19 as we turn now to Susanna.
14:02Susanna, amaze us.
14:05Well, 500 years ago this year, in July 1518,
14:10in Strasbourg, there was a dancing plague.
14:13And what happened is that 400 people started dancing
14:18for days, compulsively, without rest.
14:22And this carried on for about a month.
14:24And people were dying of heat stroke and exhaustion,
14:28heart attacks.
14:30Some reports suggest that up to 15 people a day were dying
14:33in the heat of the summer.
14:35And the thing you have to note is they were dancing
14:37involuntarily.
14:38So they were writhing in pain, they were shouting for help,
14:42you know, they were crying for mercy,
14:44but they couldn't stop dancing.
14:46And we're absolutely certain that it happened.
14:48There's dozens of chronicles, reliable, you know,
14:51sermons and municipal orders about it.
14:53And it's not the only time it happened in history either.
14:55There are three other dancing plagues,
14:57although some of those are less well attested.
14:59And, of course, the question is, what is going on?
15:02It's certain that the dancers were in some sort of state,
15:07that they were kind of in an altered state of consciousness,
15:10a bit like a trance, that they were seeing visions,
15:13they were saying that they could see demons and devils
15:15and that sort of thing.
15:16One theory has been that they ingested ergot,
15:19the kind of narcotic mould or fungus that can grow on rye bread
15:25or flour when it goes off.
15:27But it probably wouldn't produce those symptoms.
15:30I mean, this has been such a mystery that there's actually
15:32been an article about it in the Lancet magazine,
15:35the medical magazine, the Magazine Journal,
15:37suggesting that it must have been a kind of psychic,
15:40cultural contagion, that if you believed that there was
15:43a dancing curse that could affect you in circumstances
15:47of psychological or physical distress,
15:50then it could make people actually dance.
15:52But it remains pretty enigmatic and bizarre.
15:55Like L.P. Hartley said, the past is a foreign country,
15:58they do things differently there.
15:59Amazing. Thank you.
16:01APPLAUSE
16:05Yeah, it does make you think quite a lot.
16:0929-19, Phil in the lead.
16:11Now, then, David, you're back. Your letters game.
16:14I'll have a consonant, please, Rachel.

20:32It's written down.
20:34I know, but the thing is that we really can't, we can't allow it, David,
20:38because, you know, people then feel that they're being...
20:42Phil, can we turn to you?
20:44I did seven times four, 28.
20:4628.
20:47Minus three is 25.

23:43Well, maybe they are. We don't know.
23:45Well, you'd think that evolution would have straightened that out.
23:48Maybe they live in deep discomfort the entire time.

25:03David.
25:04Tard.
25:05And Phil?
25:06Dearly.
25:07Dearly.
25:08Very nice.
25:09Can we beat six, I wonder?
25:11We can. We've got leotard.
25:13Ah.
25:14And orderly.
25:16Yes, and a realtor. American estate agent.
25:18And a realtor.
25:19Yeah.
25:20All right, thank you. 61 to 32.
25:22Phil maintains his lead as we turn to Susie
25:25for her wonderful origins of words.
25:27Now, Susie?
25:29I was just going to pick up very briefly
25:31on something Susanna was talking about earlier,
25:33this dancing, this impulse to dance.
25:35And that is behind quite a lot of words in English,
25:38or at least three words I can think of.
25:40Tarentism was a disease that was thought to be exactly that,
25:43a psychological impulse to dance.
25:45And it was prevalent in Italy,
25:47particularly during the 15th and 17th centuries.
25:49And it was thought to be caused by the bite of a tarantula.
25:52And the tarantula and tarantism behind those words,
25:55a tarantula in Italy where it was first diagnosed, if you like.
25:59And the dance we still dance today is known as the tarantella.
26:03So it still sort of lives on, that mad, frenzied impulse to dance,
26:08which is pretty hellish.
26:10And I was going to talk today mostly about words to do with hell.
26:14So diabolical words, if you like.
26:17And hell has been around since Old English times as a word,
26:20as a name for the abode of the dead.
26:23And it comes from the Old English verb hellan,
26:25which meant to hide or to conceal.
26:27So it was somewhere hidden away where you would least like to go.
26:31Other English relatives that might surprise you,
26:34helmet, hull, hall, and whole and hollow,
26:37are all related to that word hell.
26:41Lucifer is another interesting one
26:43because Lucifer seems a bit of a contradiction in terms.
26:46Lucifer, obviously, the name for the devil,
26:48and yet it means light-bearing, so it seems a bit of a strange name
26:51for the prince of darkness, the exact opposite.
26:53The word is from lux, light, and then feri in Latin,
26:56to carry, so someone who carries light.
26:58And it was also applied to the morning star that heralds the dawn.
27:02But the reason it was applied to the devil
27:04is that it was applied to the name of the angel before his fall.
27:09So it was Satan before his fall.
27:11Christ talked about,
27:13I beheld Satan as a lightning fall from heaven.
27:16So that idea of a light disappearing,
27:18which was why it was applied to Satan.
27:21So it depicted his former respectability in heaven, if you like,
27:24before the fall.
27:26Devil itself, and diabolical,
27:28goes all the way back to the Greek diabolin,
27:31which meant to throw across, in other words, to slander,
27:35but also to thwart, so to thwart good with evil.
27:38Which means that the devil and diabolical, those two words,
27:41are linked to other strange mates, if you like, in English.
27:44Metabolism, ballistics, hyperbole, symbol,
27:47and perhaps more appropriately, parable and problem.
27:50And finally, the blue devils.
27:53The blue devils were the demons that were said to affect people
27:56with deep, deep melancholy.
27:58Big belief, again, in the 17th century,
28:00that they would haunt the mind of somebody
28:02who was prone to feeling sad and blue.
28:04Blue devils eventually shortened to the blues,
28:06which is why we talk about having the blues today,
28:08and that, in turn, in the 20th century,
28:10was applied to the music called the blues, the melancholy music.
28:13Fabulous.
