Susie Dent has revealed that she and her Countdown co-star Rachel Riley are such good friends that they share bras.
The TV star, 57, said that everyone on the hit Channel 4 quiz show is part of the “Countdown family” and that Rachel is “the very best of friends”.
She told the Daily Mail that the star always comes through for her when it comes to getting kitted out to be on the programme and that she thinks the pair are “two sides of the same coin”.

“She is always impeccably groomed while I frequently have dresses on inside out or back to front,” Susie said.
“She lends me bras, tights – anything, in fact, that I have characteristically left at home.”
Susie has been appearing on Countdown since back in 1992 and is very popular with fans of the long-running series.
Rachel, who is 36, joined the show in 2009 when she was just 22, taking over from fan favourite Carol Vorderman.
Susie told the Mail she was thankful to be a part of the much-loved programme and shared that the Countdown crew have a lot of fun making it.
The star said the gang have plenty of laughs due to her accidental innuendos, as well as pranks and rude words that sometimes come up on the letters board.
Susie and Rachel also have their share of chuckles over the fact that Susie has a firm grasp of the standard dictionary and Rachel knows a bit more about the “ruder, urban, one”.
She told the paper that she regularly finds herself explaining a word that is completely innocent, and then will suddenly see Rachel “doubled up with laughter because she knows another meaning”.
