Umbraco Contour, 1.1.12 - select value of dropdown list

Essentially my XSLT isn't up to scratch , the field is a dropdown within Contour and I get it like so:

<xsl:value-of select="$records//fields/child::* [name() = 'countryoforigin']"/>

however this brings back values I don't want:

3c7607b3-714c-47ec-8863-3919c6bdcfc9dc2c66c2-fa57-4e98-b26a-89b7ed041300#country of originStringUnited Kingdomld

I only want the value, which is in this case "United Kingdom".

Other fields that are input fields, bring back the value like so:

<xsl:value-of select="$records//fields/child::* [name() = 'position']/.//value"/>

But when the same is applied to the dropdown (name ='countryoforigin') - it doesnt work

Any thoughts?

Code snippet:

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
<xsl:param name="records" />
<table>
    <tr>
        <td width="26%">
            <font face="arial" color="#333333" size="2"><strong><xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetDictionaryItem('position')"/>:</strong></font>
        </td>
        <td width="74%"><font face="arial"><xsl:value-of select="$records//fields/child::* [name() = 'position']/.//value"/></font>
        </td>
    </tr>       
</table>
<p>
      <font face="arial" color="#333333" size="2">
          <strong>
              Country of origin
              <br/>

              <xsl:value-of select="$records//fields/child::* [name() = 'countryoforigin']"/>

          </strong>
      </font>
  </p>

Ok, so just like with the other value, this should do the job:

<xsl:value-of select="$records//fields/*[name() = 'countryoforigin']//value"/>
