00:00This programme contains strong language and adult humour.
00:05APPLAUSE
00:31Good afternoon, good afternoon, and welcome to Countdown Studio.
00:35Work-life balance, Rachel.
00:37Everyone's banging on about work-life balance.
00:39I've got some stats for you, new research.
00:42And it says that the Danes are the most likely to work overtime,
00:46with 86% saying they're likely to do so, or that they indeed do do so.
00:53The least strained are those from Germany,
00:56with just 38% saying they find their work stressful,
00:59and this may well be connected to the fact
01:03that they have the highest proportion who've been drunk at work,
01:07apparently one in ten admitting to an illicit tip whilst at work.
01:11Can you imagine that? Not something that we would ever do, is it?
01:14Never admit to it, no, Nick.
01:16But we're not in charge of heavy machinery.
01:18Now, the most content are the French.
01:20No surprise there, 64% of workers rate their work-life balance
01:24as good or very good, and actually they're hugely productive.
01:28What about us?
01:29I read that report, it's a while ago now,
01:32but there was a cabinet meeting apparently,
01:34and Boris Johnson was raging about the fact that he couldn't get things done
01:38because half the civil servants in his department
01:40pushed off on Wednesday afternoons because they'd done their hours.
01:44But Theresa May piped up and said,
01:46but it's known as flexible working, Boris,
01:49and the government supports it, and I think it's terrible.
01:53I think flexible working would be brilliant.
01:56I don't know.
01:57I think if you want to get on,
01:58you've really got to put in more than you're being paid for
02:00just to get things done.
02:03Anyway...
02:05I'm glad you don't do my contract anyway, Nick.
02:07Exactly.
02:09Well, we don't. I suppose we do do.
02:11Oh, I take my work home with me.
02:12If I miss a numbers game, that's my homework, yeah.
02:15Oh, that's brave of you. I'm straight off home.
02:18Who's here with us? We've got Mac Walker back with us, Rachel.
02:21Sixth form student from Sheffield.
02:23Good win. Good first win.
02:25Slightly less dramatic last time out.
02:27Good luck to you.
02:29Good luck to you.
02:30And you're joined by Amy Halloran,
02:32a laboratory assistant from Alistair in Derbyshire, in histology.
02:37What is histology again?
02:39We receive tissue samples for diagnosis of disease,
02:42so anything from benign diseases through to cancers.
02:45OK.
02:46And you love a challenge, apparently.
02:48I do.
02:49Eating biscuits, doing push-ups.
02:51What's that, the number of biscuits you can cram in at once, or what?
02:55Last year I did see how many Jaffa cakes I could eat in one sitting.
02:59How did it go?
03:00I got to 34.
03:0134?
03:02I was disappointed that I couldn't finish three boxes.
03:05Listen, both of you, have a fun day.
03:08Have a fun day.
03:09Big round of applause for Mac and Amy.
03:15Mac and Amy.
03:16And over there in the corner, Susie,
03:18is joined once again by the extremely hard-working professional dancer
03:22and choreographer and one of the nation's favourites,
03:25I might tell you.
03:26That'll be Pasha Kovalev.
03:28Welcome back, Pasha.

05:01Anything else there, Pasha, Susie?
05:03Another eight-letter word.
05:05Susie found it.
05:06I cannot even pronounce it, so you have to take it.
05:08You are forgiven.
05:09It's an ancient word.
05:10It's equestor.
05:11Q-U-A-E-S-T-O-R.
05:13In ancient Rome, any of a number of officials
05:15who were in charge of public revenue.
05:17Of course.
05:18Well done. So, eight points to Mac,

06:45So, instated.
06:47We think of reinstate, but instate is simply to set somebody up

10:12Yeah, both very good.
10:13Well done.

13:02So 25 times 9.
13:04No, sorry, 25 plus 9.
13:0625 plus 9, 34.
13:08Times 10.
13:09Times 10, 340.
13:10And then 8 over 2.
13:12And then 8 over 2 for the 4.
13:14Lovely, well done.
13:15Well done.
13:20Well done, Mac.
13:2146 to 28 as we turn to Pasha.
13:24Pasha, you've danced in some amazing places.
13:28I understand you've been to Times Square, Chinese Theatre, Buckingham Palace.
13:32What was that about?
13:34Well, for Strictly, we were filming a little program actually for children in need.
13:41And we ended up doing a little charity event in Buckingham Palace.
13:49It was absolutely amazing because when you take a tour of Buckingham Palace,
13:53obviously you're allowed to certain parts of it.
13:56And we were in the part where people usually don't go.
13:59And it's so beautiful.
14:01It's absolutely incredibly beautiful inside.
14:04And I was worried at first if the floor was going to be sticky or slippery
14:10because for dancers it's a first thing, a very important thing.
14:13If the floor is slippery, then everything goes the wrong way.
14:17But it was absolutely perfectly, they got it right.
14:20Okay, was that in a ballroom?
14:22I imagine they've got several ballrooms in Buckingham Palace.
14:24I think every room there is a ballroom.
14:26You can call it a ballroom because they're all huge and the floor is perfect
14:30and they're all grand, absolutely amazing.
14:33Fantastic.
14:34But I've danced in many other places.
14:36And if we're talking about UK now, for example, I'm touring
14:40and every single stage in the country is different.
14:46And with all the theatres, with all beautiful grand theatres,
14:49usually the stages are raked.
14:51So they're a little bit angled down.
14:53It's quite uncomfortable to dance, especially when you do turns.
14:57You fall right off.
14:59Well, not literally, but it could be quite dangerous.
15:02But not as dangerous as dancing on cruise ships during the stormy weather
15:10because you think you're staying in one place, but because the ship is moving,
15:15you're actually moving all around the stage.
15:18So sometimes you have challenges like that.
15:20Big challenges.
15:21In your careers.
15:22You danced in Japan.
15:23What was that like?
15:25Dancing in Japan is amazing because the audience there are absolutely insane.
15:31We danced in Tokyo, in Osaka, in one of the shows.
15:35We finished the show, did our bows, curtain went down,
15:40they were still staying there clapping.
15:43Okay, we raised the curtain again, do a couple more bows,
15:47curtain went down, we went to the dressing rooms, we start changing,
15:50ten minutes later the stage manager comes back,
15:52guys, I know you've changed, but people are still standing, they're still clapping,
15:56can you come back please and do another bow?
15:59So we had to run up and do that.
16:01It's kind of a different way of expressing themselves.
16:05I guess maybe that's an outlet, shows like that, it's an outlet for them.
16:09And that's where they direct all their energy.
16:12Brilliant stuff. Lovely.
16:18Thank you, Persia.
16:20That's good fun.
16:22Mac.
16:24Letters game.
16:25Can I have a consonant, please?
16:26Thank you, Mac. G.
16:28And a vowel?
16:30O.
16:31And another?
16:33O.
16:34And a consonant?
16:36P.
16:37And another?
16:39R.
16:41And a vowel?
16:43A.
16:45E.
16:47And a consonant?
16:49T.
16:51And another?
16:53N.
16:54Stand by.
17:15MUSIC
17:26Well, Mac?
17:27A seven.
17:28A seven. Amy?
17:29Six.
17:30And that six?
17:31Pageant.
17:33Pageant and portage?
17:35Yes, very good.
17:36And portage?
17:37They have to disallow pageant, though, cos you need two A's for pageant, I'm afraid.
17:41Sorry, Amy.
17:42What can we have, I wonder? Pasha, Susie?
17:44What have you produced for us?
17:46Another six-letter word would be pooter.
17:49Pooter, yes.
17:51It's a bottle for collecting small insects.
17:53Anything else?
17:54Yeah, there's a seven.
17:55Could I count down pronating?
17:57Pronate is there for seven, which is to do with turning the soles of your foot or palms of your hand inwards.
18:02Yeah.
18:03Thank you. 53 to 28.
18:05Amy, your letters game.

19:18They're both absolutely fine.
19:19Fontal to do with the font that's the receptacle in a church, for example.
19:24And, yeah, they're both absolutely fine.
19:26Very good.
19:27And what can we have, I wonder?
19:29Passion, Susie?
19:30A couple more six-letter words in here.
19:35One of them is fungal.
19:37Yes.
19:38Not a pleasant word, but it's there.
19:40And another one is...
19:43Galoot.
19:45Galoot, which is...
19:47It's a term of abuse.
19:48I don't know how harsh it is, but in America it means
19:51a stupid, awful, clumsy person, a galoot.
19:54No.
19:5559 to 34, and it's Mac's numbers game.
19:59Could I have two large and four small, please?
20:01Same again, two from the top, four little.
20:03Thank you, Mac.

21:05And then, yeah, minus the 9 and the 3 for one away.
21:08Amy?
21:09The same way.
21:10Yeah.
21:11So, Rachel, where's it got to?
21:13262?
21:16Well, if you get to this point and then you say 7 minus 3 is 4,
21:20you can take that away and that's 262.
21:23And there it is.
21:24There it is, yeah.

25:05A six. Amy?
25:06Mac?
25:07Soaring.
25:08And...
25:09Soaring.
25:10Seven again?
25:11Seven again.
25:12We'll show it to Mac, there we are.
25:14And over in the corner there.
25:15Yes, another six-letter word, wagons.
25:18Yeah.
25:19Yeah.
25:20And last minute seven, Nick, is agnosia.
25:23A-G-N-O-S-I-A is a medical term for the inability to interpret sensations
25:29as a result of brain damage.
25:31OK.
25:32APPLAUSE
25:33Agnosia.
25:34APPLAUSE
25:36Now, Susie, it's your origins of words we turn to with much anticipation.
25:41Well, I've actually chosen a word that you used quite recently, Nick,
25:45and I just suddenly thought,
25:47I wonder where that comes from, cos I actually don't know.
25:49And that was a scamp.
25:50You call somebody a scamp, a little scamp, I think.
25:53And we use it relatively innocently these days.
25:56It means somebody who's a little bit mischievous, a likeable rogue.
26:00Usually children can be a scamp if, as I say, they're up to no good.
26:04But its beginnings were anything but innocent,
26:07because the first scamps were highway robbers,
26:10known in the 18th century as footpads,
26:12pad once being a term for a road or a highway.
26:16And scamps and footpads are mentioned in some of the earliest dictionaries,
26:20the earliest collections of words that you will find, those of criminal slang.
26:24And over the years, the word moved from highway robbery
26:27to any person who was a ne'er-do-well, if you like, a sort of lowlife,
26:31so you will find in descriptions of 19th century London scamps
26:34who would be hanging out in the taverns, maybe the brothels of London.
26:38So, again, it still had that sort of sense of, if not viciousness,
26:43then somebody who really wasn't up to any good at all.
26:46Eventually it lost its sting
26:48and it settled at the mild term of reproof that we use it as today.
26:52But where did it come from?
26:54Well, it's linked to scamper, as you might guess,
26:56which is a lovely word meaning to run or caper about.
26:59The idea here that these were criminal capers rather than anything a bit milder.
27:03And scamper is linked to escampe, and that meant to decamp.
27:08So if you go all the way back to Roman times,
27:10it was ascribed to armies who set off from their encampment
27:16to go off on a new military campaign.
27:18Camp, of course, goes back to the Romans' word for field,
27:21especially the campus marshes at Rome
27:23where they held all those athletic competitions, military exercises
27:27and sort of real simulations of battles.
27:29Many would be killed in preparation for fighting.
27:33And, of course, that's where we get campers from at the universities today.
27:36We also get champion from there and champagne.
27:39So scamper and scamp are linked to very unlikely words, as I say,
27:43including bubbles of champagne and the campus of our local college.
27:48Wonderful. Thank you.
27:55Little scamps. Who would have thought it?
