  • GAME OVER. GILES WINS.

  • I find this difficult to wank to.

  • Was this broadcasted?

  • why wouldnt it be in the dictionary? and theres nothing wrong with the set you dickheads

  • a definition? oh please lololol

  • hard to take in Mr Whitley ( Ritchard ) is no longer never looked a picture of ill health ! just shows no ones got a sell by date .

  • TV GOLD,LOVE IT

  • @mrmister102 TV platinum i think ;)

  • Richard Whietly was the best

  • hahaha

  • I watched Countdown for the first time in ages a couple of months ago, and the very first letters game I saw, "WANKER" was indeed the best word I could see. One contestant got it, and it was just bleeped, out and they just showed AWAKEN which the other guy got. Really funny.

  • Amazing even a complete cunt like Giles Brandreth has a sense of humour.

  • Nothing wrong with having a good old fashioned wank.

  • Class from Giles Brandreth, "What was Richard Whitely doing asking for a definition of wankers?"

  • very funny so was the snake charmer from catchphrase

  • :17 that's the face of a presenter who has just realised that his show has just been utterly derailed, and is about to enter a whole world of shit.

  • I was saddened to hear of Richard Whitely's death but was cheered to imagine his life support machine going da-da, da-da, da-da-da-da! Boooooooooo! As he took his last breath.

  • It's in the dictionary!

  • @calvooo heheheh

  • I love watching Cuntdown !

  • @stew2blue What a smug twat he is!

  • A year after this, he became a Tory MP.

  • Comment removed

  • i remember this one, i was so wet thinking about the two guys wanking at the same time....

  • Why do you hate carol vordeman so much mate?

  • @carolvorderman1 are you the real carol vorderman? only the real carol vorderman would say that..

  • @carolvorderman1 Well that's a disturbing top comment. Upvoted.

  • well, it is on Channel 4......

  • Haha!

  • we're a pair of wankers LOL  priceless

  • lol i cant help how i dream

  • I don't think this was an out-take, I remember my mum telling me about it :P

  • i like the look of that clock compared to the one to day

  • lool

    i miss her too

  • were u a "wanker"? haha

  • What a stupid thing to say Charles to Richard: 'a definition of a wanker because you one who personifies it.

  • Comment removed

  • thats a classic how did richard whitley not piss himslef laughing, god rest his sole, but why did they always have a 360 degree clock when it only ever used half of it.

  • Comment removed

  • the first guy looks well pleased with himself lol

  • I suspect this was from a bloopers show rather than the original recording hence the canned laughter which rather ruins it.

  • Countdown is filmed in front of an audience.

  • Yes, I know it's filmed in front of an audience but I remember seeing the original and there was just a bit of sniggering. The countdown audience are rather reserved.

    In fact I saw the very first ever episode of Countdown in 1982 as kids. It was the opening program for the then new channel 4. I remember us all being dissapointed as feck.

  • I don't mind a bit of canned laughter, but you have to admit that Lawrence Pearse's deadpan delivery is funnier than if he'd been giggling like a schoolboy.

  • I couldn't agree with you more.

    I loved how Gino struggled to keep a straight face when he said "a pair of wankers" and he then burst out laughing. Classic!! XD

  • @graemeoliver84

    its not canned laughter

  • Comment removed

  • If I remember correctly from reading some of the other comments on this video, this is from one of those bloopers shows, when this occured during filming of a Countdown episode there was a little bit of laughter from the studio audience but all the really loud laughter is from the audience for the blooper show.

  • Utter Classic !!!!!!!!!

  • Back to Base.

  • TIME'S UP!

  • lol

    i love richard whitley :)

  • A classic RW moment. He is still missed.

  • haha all tv should be like this, fuck the PC brigade

  • You clearly don't understand political correctness; it has nothing to do with this whatsoever.

  • Well said. The only thing that annoys me more than political correctness are the people who blame everything on the PC brigade. What? I can't say wankers on national TV in the middle of the day? Damn you political correctness!

  • @armedpineapple It is you that has missed the point. This is an english language program and thus should be exempt from any ban on swear words.

  • What year  is this episode from?

  • It clearly says 1991 in the description.

  • a pair of wankers he says lol

  • Haaahaha xD

  • Nine letters are chosen at random and in the space of 30 seconds, they have to come up with the longest word they can out of those letters. UNfortunately, both of them answers 'wankers'

  • ...!

  • Then you're officially dumb.

  • I mean what is the object of the show, I'm not British so I've never seen it.

  • The 2 contestants in each episode compete in three disciplines: eleven letters rounds, in which the contestants attempt to make the longest word from nine randomly chosen letters; 3 numbers rounds, in which the contestants must use arithmetic to make a random target number from 6 other numbers; & the conundrum, a buzzer round in which the contestants try to be first to solve a nine-letter anagram. The winning contestant returns the next day until he or she loses or has accumulated eight wins.

  • a wanker is someone who plays with their gentleman's area

  • it is also a definition of you

  • Wow, so witty!

  • HAHA PMSL QUALITY

  • this is sampled on a tidy trax 12 inch

  • Jizz?

  • It wasn't banned, it did go out on air

  • HAHAHA  5*

  • lol how did this get updated on oyutbe if it was banned

  • outtake tv shows show it all the time

  • re your question about thumbs down. they probably take countdown very seriously and dont appreciate true genius.

  • Countdowns on my tv now....but I'm in bed and too lazy to turn it over....the music's sendin me crazy, so I thought I'd youtube it as well

  • wank

  • LOL, WANKERS!

  • we got a pair of wankers.

    hahahaha

  • hahahahahah!

  • lol, Lawrence has such a satisfied look on his face when he declares :D

  • Want a definition of "wanker", Giles? Just stand in front of a mirror.

  • It should Giles who should of given definition of wanker cos his name's underneath the word in the dictionary.

  • your comment is as good as the clip. i've typed lol a few times in my life but it's almost always a lie. not this time. a well-earned lol.

  • Thank you!

  • Gino Corr, that's a good name.

  • You've got a pair of wankers!

  • How appropriate that Giles Brandreth was in dictionary corner when this word came up...

  • Believe me, you're not the only person this thought occured to.

  • ok i know what a wanker is its what we say a jack off

  • im american what the fuck is a wanker i just wanna know is that slang or something we have our own like murk you or creep out the cut

  • Wank means masturbation. But wanker is normally said here to people we don't like, it doesn't actually mean the person wanks alot.

  • ROFL @ "a pair of wankers" XD

  • Some of the best comedy writes itself!

    Gino's reaction is great too.

    Richard Whiteley R.I.P

  • Wanker?

    I though that was a very mild word, a bit too worked up over that, eh?

    Although, I get the fun of it and I laugh gently too, I suppose.

  • Well, the program is on at about 3pm just before childrens TV

  • this wasn't broardcast

  • why are you giving out about swearing on tv, considering you just used 'fuckin' in your comment. Irony

  • :D OMG that is so funny!!!

  • Bet loads of people complained about this, but they are sad wankers with no sense of humour

  • If you read the description to the right of the video, it says OUTTAKE, hence it wasn't broadcast (at least not as part of the episode). Countdown is not filmed live and in 1991 they would never have allowed such filthy language (funny as it may be) to be broadcast on daytime television. However now we have stuff like The Jeremy Kyle Show on during the day, so things must have changed.

  • oh my days!

  • I want a jumper like Gyles' lol

  • richard deals with this so calmly, thats the strength of this clip! briliant

  • I miss Richard 2 :(

  • weve got a pair of wankers lool

  • lol @!! I miss Richard! but not Carol and i really like the new presenter of countdown!

    I think there are many elderly people who have not even realised that they HAVE new presenters and still think they are watching carol and Richard still!! lol

  • wonderful - solely for the way that "lawrence" utters the word wankers, in perhaps the coolest way possiblé.

  • Well, they did call him 'Twice-Nightly Whitely'! And, working with Carol Vorderman, you would certainly understand that he had to relieve the tension.

  • because he used to present the Calendar news and Countdown on the same evening

  • LOL The fuck is wrong with you dude? Surely you would've found yourself wanking to shots of her interspersed with Richard Whiteley. Nigella Lawson is hotter, and there aren't any dudes with her.

  • Maybe somebody should teach you proper grammar. I think you meant to ask 'What the fuck is wrong with you, dude?' Anyway, have you never heard of the pause button? Plus it was a joke. I agree that Nigella is definitely hotter, but - let's face it - I'm never going to be offered the chance with either of them. And, even if that was the case, I'd do both if that was a possibility. And if I hadn't ejaculated myself inside-out, from the immense pleasure of doing the first one. Damn fine bitches...

  • To quote scousers everywhere 'Calm down, calm down, lad!'. I was also just kidding and my grammatical error was intentional, kinda meant to sound funnier; how do people put it......EPIC FAIL. A man can dream though, right?

  • What, of a threesome with Carol Vorderman and Nigella Lawson? I dream of little else!

  • Lol. You are obsessed aren't you.  Although I do hope your obsession doesn't extend to dreaming that your dick is the pen Carol Vorderman writes on the board with. Cos that would be fucked, right?

  • Shit. You've got me there, I'm afraid.

  • you have good taste.

  • Thanks.

  • ahahaha whiteley's face!

  • The best thing is the way that Gino guy goes 'We have got a pair of wankers'

  • Lawrence looks awfully smug with himself, the filthy bastard

  • I think that's the best part about him saying wankers in the first place.

  • It means two things, a selfish person, or to masturbate.

  • Well it doesn't really mean a selfish person. Its more insulting really. you could say c*ocksucker but when you say 'wanker' you can make the hand sign (shaking the left hand up/down), but if you say c*ocksucker then you cant really do the sign (hand to mouth) or else you look gay.

  • Comedy gold.

  • Then it's fitting that your drama teacher is a wanker.

  • Epic Win.

  • Loving Gyles's jumper!

  • Quality, look at the set LOL! It looks awful and crappy.

  • it was 1991 you retard
