Rachel Riley's boyfriend spots naughty Countdown word

From Digital Spy

In important breaking news, Countdown's Rachel Riley has laughed at another naughty word.

Tee. Hee.

This time, the cheeky word was BUMHOLE, which made it onto the Countdown board thanks to Strictly Come Dancing star – and Riley's boyfriend – Pasha Kovalev.

During a guest stint, Kovalev extracted BUMHOLE from a selection of letters – HMWOIUEBL – prompting Riley to tweet about it following the broadcast.

She wrote: "Can't take @PashaKovalev anywhere... This was supposed to be the clean version of the show!

"When your boyfriend spots an opening to play a cheeky seven... I may have been laughing too much for the board shot to make the edit... #BUMHOLE."

After Pasha suggested the word BUMHOLE, the studio audience laughed – oh how they laughed – and host Nick said: "'Bumhole' is in the dictionary, sure."

Susie Dent added: "Yes, but the only thing I would say, having looked it up in the big Oxford English Dictionary, is it's been in the dictionary since 1611, or at least it's been recorded since 1611."

"Well, they've been around a long time," Nick quipped.

So far this year, Countdown viewers and Rachel Riley have found the words "squirt" and "no panties" hilarious.

And, previously, Susie Dent "orgasmed" and got to say "gobshite" on national TV.
