Episode 2 Impossible

Hello, I'm Rick Edwards and this is !mpossible - day two.

APPLAUSE

Welcome to !mpossible, the quiz with the third dimension.

Most quiz shows have just right answers and wrong answers,

but here we also have impossible answers.

For example, if I were to ask...

The right answer is 20,

the wrong answer is 17,

but there is no number 23 on a dartboard,

so that is the impossible answer to a question starting,

"Which number on a dartboard..."

Hoping to get lots of right answers

whilst dodging those pesky impossible answers are 30 players.

-Hello, players. ALL:

-Hi, Rick.

They are very well behaved

and they'll be with us throughout the series, competing, not only

for a daily prize pot of up to £1,500...

Ooh!

..but also for a shot at the £10,000 question.

Ooh!

Keep whooping because this exclamation mark

is filled with 10,000

shimmering gold pound coins.

At the end of every show, our winner faces one final question

and here it is - today's £10,000 question.

Get this right and all of that cash will come flooding out.

-Diane, you came so close yesterday...

-I know.

..to seeing the money cascade.

-Yep.

-But you still won £1,400.

-That's great. Yeah. Happy with that.

-Have you spent it yet?

-No, thinking about it.

But not quite yet.

Craig, how is it down on the front row?

It's great. The best place to be, I think.

-Oh, really?

-What do the rest of you think of that?

-Boo!

-Oh, no, no, no.

We'll be getting to know all of our lovely players

as the series progresses, but, for now, let's crack on.

You'll face five multiple choice questions each with three answers.

The right answer scores you a point,

the wrong answer scores you nothing,

but if you choose the impossible answer...

'Impossible.'

Ooh, that will immediately knock you out of today's show

and you'll have to try again tomorrow.

After five questions, the highest scorer

gets the first chance to bag a place in today's final.

Do answer as quickly as you can because if there's a tie,

whoever has locked in their answers the fastest will qualify.

Good luck, everyone. Here's your first question.

Wow, you have all gone B.

I'm kind of hoping that B is the right answer.

THEY LAUGH

Let's reveal the right answer.

-It is B, Coco.

-Hooray!

A point to everyone.

OK, let's reveal the impossible answer.

Charlie. Charlie not a Chanel perfume.

-Any idea?

-Revlon.

-Revlon!

Revlon is right.

Named after the founder, Charles Revson.

OK, everyone's on a point.

Question two.

17 of you think it's C, monkey,

11 of you think it's B, rooster,

and a couple of you think that it's A, lion.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's C, monkey.

Well done everyone who put that.

A point to you. Now...

this means that some of you at least have given the impossible answer.

Helen, are you a keen student of the Chinese Zodiac?

Oh, I thought I was but no.

I know there isn't a lion in it,

but... Yeah.

-You think there isn't a lion.

-I don't think there's a lion.

Ray sitting next to you thinks maybe there is a lion.

Random guess.

Definitely not a lion.

-Goodbye.

-Let's reveal the impossible answer.

'Impossible.'

Sorry...

So I'm afraid we'll have to say goodbye to you today

and also to Dan,

but we will see you tomorrow.

Question number three.

For the second time,

all of you have gone with B.

All 28 of you.

So, for the second time, fingers crossed.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It is B, van Gogh,

so you all get a point.

Let's reveal the impossible answer as well.

C, Van Persie.

He's a footballer.

Question number four.

Answers locked in.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It is A, Tropic of Capricorn, so 24 of you get another point.

Unfortunately, two of you

are going to be eliminated at this stage

because you have given the impossible answer.

-Craig.

-Antarctic Circle, I know that's definitely on the globe.

LAUGHTER Yes, good start. Yes.

Kerry sitting next to you has gone with B.

The Prime Meridian.

You don't look happy, Kerry.

Just shaking your head quietly to yourself.

I've just got no idea why I did that.

I don't have an answer for you.

Well, you do, and unfortunately it was B, Prime Meridian.

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

'Impossible.'

It was B, Prime Meridian.

It is a line of longitude.

Kerry and Bim, I'm afraid...

you're eliminated.

We'll see you tomorrow.

Oh...

So, after those four questions, 13 of you are on four points.

It's very likely this is going to come down to who gets their answers

locked in the quickest.

Let's move on to our final question, question five. Good luck.

So we've got a full house.

That means we are going to lose quite a few people at this stage.

Let's reveal the impossible answer first.

'Impossible.'

It was C, Damian.

That means ten of you are eliminated.

THEY GASP

I'm sorry, Damien is the local priest, not a son.

I'm sorry. We'll see you all tomorrow though.

Sarah, you went with a different answer,

you went with Trevor.

Are you a fan of the show?

I'm not a fan but I have seen it.

And I could just hear her saying, "Trevor."

Do you know what?

Not a bad impression, Sarah.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It is A, Trevor.

So that's a point to everyone who got that right.

The wrong answer is Mark.

He's the oldest son.

So, after that question, we've whittled it down

to just two people with five points.

Those two people are Diane and Jo.

-Wow.

-Ooh!

APPLAUSE

I can tell you that the quickest to lock in their answers was...

Diane. Congratulations,

you have the first chance to win a place in today's final.

Come and join me again, Diane.

-Here we are, Diane.

-Yeah.

-In our places.

-Definitely.

Yesterday, obviously, you won £1,400.

If you get through to our endgame,

-have another crack at the £10,000 question, potentially...

-I know.

Remind me what you'd spend the money on.

Probably going over to Russia,

maybe going to the Hermitage in St Petersburg

-to look at the galleries - I'd love that.

-Uh-huh.

So once again, Diane,

this is your chance to put up to £500 into today's prize pot

and, crucially, take a massive step

towards playing the £10,000 question.

I'm going to give you a choice of four topics. Here they are.

Famous People, Geography, Film and Sport.

Which would you like to go for?

-I'll try Sport, please.

-You'll try Sport. OK.

So here's how it works.

I'm going to reveal nine answers...

And we're going to see the first half of a question.

Which first-class cricket county...?

Five of those answers are impossible,

that is they couldn't possibly be the answer

to a question beginning like that

because they are not first-class cricket counties.

Your first job is to find those impossible answers,

-get rid of them.

-Yeah.

You'll have five guesses and each impossible answer

you manage to eliminate will add £100 to today's prize pot.

-OK.

-Where shall we start?

We'll start with Cumbria, please.

-You a cricket fan, by the way?

-Yeah.

Ah!

-Yeah.

-I thought I saw a little glint in your eye.

-Yeah.

-OK, Cumbria.

Let's lock it in. And is Cumbria an impossible answer?

Yes, it is. £100 in the prize pot.

So maybe we'll just rattle through these, Diane.

-Well, I'll give it a go.

-Next guess.

-Er, Devon, please.

-Is Devon an impossible answer?

Yes, it is. £200.

-Where next?

-Norfolk.

Norfolk. Is Norfolk an impossible answer?

It is. £300 in the prize pot.

-Fourth guess, please.

-Next one is Cheshire, please.

Is Cheshire an impossible answer?

£400 in the prize pot.

Let's see if we can get the maximum £500 in there

with your fifth guess.

And I'm going to go for Staffordshire, please.

-Staffordshire.

-Yeah.

Is Staffordshire an impossible answer?

It is. The full five from five,

£500 in today's prize pot.

But will you be playing for that money

and another shot at the £10,000 question in today's final?

In the moment I'm going to reveal the second half of the question

and I'm now looking for the right answer.

-Yeah.

-Find it and a place in the final is yours.

Give a wrong answer and the next best player

will have the chance to steal your place in the final.

As you know, it was your back row mate, Jo.

So, Jo, standby to steal.

Let's reveal the full question.

Which first-class cricket county has its home ground at Grace Road?

-I've been there.

-Have you?

Yeah. Yeah.

That is Leicestershire.

Lock in Leicestershire.

This for a place in today's final.

Is Leicestershire the right answer?

It is! APPLAUSE

Congratulations, Diane.

-Your second time in the final.

-Thank you.

The pack has halved, we're down to 15.

The odds are getting better.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Here's your first question.

So we've got a full spread.

Let's first reveal the right answer.

It's July 31,

so if you put C, you get a point.

Just five of you.

That means some of you...

..are going to be eliminated

at this early stage in this round, I'm afraid,

because you have given an impossible answer.

Jane, you've gone for May 31st.

Well, there is a May 31st but there's not a June the 31st -

-that's why I have done it.

-Ah.

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

'Impossible.'

It is B, June 31st.

June only has 30 days, as Jane rightly pointed out.

Craig, what happened? I had high hopes for you today.

Well, you know, it was bound to happen so I've got to go.

But we will see you again tomorrow.

Let's move on to question two.

So let's reveal the right answer first.

It is C, Bishop. Well done.

A point to everyone who put that.

Now, Annie, you went for rook.

Hoping it's not impossible.

I'm sure it's not. I've never played chess in my life

but I know there's no dukes,

so I'm quietly confident that I'll scrape through that one.

Let's have a look at what the impossible answer is.

It is A, Duke. As you said, Annie,

there is no duke piece in chess.

Moving on to question three.

Everybody has gone for B, Angela Merkel.

Let's hope it's the right answer.

Is it?

Yes, it, that is.

Well done, everyone. A point to all of you.

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

It is C, Miranda Kerr.

She is an Australian model, was married to Orlando Bloom.

OK, moving on to question four.

So we've got a full house.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It is Strictly Ballroom.

Just four of you getting that right.

Congratulations, you all get a point.

That means that some of you are going to be eliminated at this stage

because you have given an impossible answer.

-Penny.

-Hello.

Are you a fan of the works of Baz Luhrmann?

Well, I've heard of him.

-Good start.

-But I can't say that I know which films he directs

and Moulin Rouge just sounds like it ought to have a red curtain.

Jane, you went for Flashdance.

I haven't got a clue but I think Moulin Rouge is a very,

very old film and that's the only reason I've gone for Flashdance.

But I don't know anything about Red Curtain trilogy.

OK. Let's reveal the impossible answer.

'Impossible.'

Sorry, Jane.

-Never mind.

-I'm afraid Flashdance is not a Baz Luhrmann film,

whereas Moulin Rouge is,

but it was the third film in his Red Curtain trilogy.

So, Jane and Anne,

I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to you today,

but we will see you again tomorrow.

So, after four questions, two people have four points,

they are Megan and Andrew.

Yes!

So it may well come down to how quickly you lock your answers in.

Question number five, the final question in this round.

So, frontrunners Megan and Andrew...

..you've both gone with A, Sea of Tranquillity.

Let's reveal first of all the impossible answer.

'Impossible.'

It's A, Sea of Tranquillity.

So, Megan and Andrew, who were in the lead,

have both knocked themselves out,

as has Richard.

The Sea of Tranquillity, I'm afraid,

is not a body of water and is on the moon.

So that really changes everything.

So, Richard, Megan and Andrew,

it's goodbye for now but we will see you again tomorrow.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's Sargasso Sea.

So if you put that, you get a point.

So that has shaken things up.

We now have four people on four points.

They are Jo, Annie,

Ash and Helen.

The quickest to lock in their answers, though, was...

Helen. Congratulations, Helen.

You have the chance to grab a place in today's final alongside Diane.

-Well done, Helen. Here we are.

-Thank you.

-How are you feeling?

-Good.

-And what do you do?

I just graduated uni, so I don't do anything.

-Ah.

-It's very nice.

-The classic graduate!

-Yes.

-What was your degree in?

-History.

-OK.

What would you spend the money on?

Well, it's my dream to do a rollercoaster tour of North America,

so I want a lot of money so I can go all the way around,

do all the best theme parks and the biggest rides.

So you literally mean rollercoaster tour?

-I meant a rollercoaster tour.

-I thought you just meant ups and downs

-and... Yeah.

-No, I mean riding.

-Theme parks.

-Riding theme parks, yes.

OK. Let's get down to the serious business. You have the chance to add

another £500 to today's prize pot, which already stands at £500,

thanks to Diane. You can also take a huge step

towards playing the £10,000 question.

Of the three remaining topics, Famous People, Geography and Film...

..which takes your fancy?

-I'm going to go Film.

-OK, Film.

So here are your nine answers.

And the first half of the question is...

Which film starring Brad Pitt...?

I think you quite liked the reveal.

I did. I like a lot of these movies.

OK. How many of them have you seen?

I've seen most of them. I haven't seen Babel or Adaptation.

OK. Five of those answers are impossible,

they couldn't possibly be the answer to a question beginning like that,

because they are not Brad Pitt films.

So you need to find those impossible answers and get rid of them.

Each impossible answer that you eliminate

will add £100 to today's prize pot.

You've got five guesses.

-Where shall we start?

-Erm... I'm going to go with Invictus.

Invictus. Let's get Invictus locked in.

Is Invictus an impossible answer?

It is.

Invictus, Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman.

-OK, where next?

-Silver Linings Playbook.

Silver Linings Playbook. Let's get that locked in.

Is Silver Linings Playbook an impossible answer?

It is.

Spot on. It was Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence.

-Third guess.

-This is getting a bit tricky for me.

Erm... I'm going to go Babel.

OK, let's get Babel locked in.

Is Babel an impossible answer?

I'm afraid not.

Brad Pitt is in Babel.

Still, two more guesses.

Erm...

I'll go Three Kings.

Three Kings. Get Three Kings locked in.

-Have you seen Three Kings?

-No.

Is Three Kings an impossible answer?

It is.

He is not one of the Three Kings.

-Excellent!

-That was George Clooney, amongst others.

OK.

Final guess. £300 you have added to the prize pot,

let's see if we can make it 400.

I'll go Adaptation.

Adaptation. Let's see if Adaptation is an impossible answer.

It is.

Well done. £400 added to the prize pot, it now stands at £900.

Now we're going to see if you'll be playing for that money

and for a shot at the £10,000 question in today's final.

When I reveal the second half of the question,

you need to tell me the right answer.

If you find it, you're in the final with Diane.

If you give me a wrong answer, the next best player, who was Ash,

will get a chance to steal your place in the final.

There is one impossible left.

If you give me that answer, I'm afraid you will be eliminated today.

The full question is...

..which film starring Brad Pitt

also features Eric Bana and Orlando Bloom?

-OK. This is one of my favourite films.

-Ah!

-Yes.

It's Troy.

Is it the right answer?

It is. Congratulations. APPLAUSE

£900 in the prize pot.

Just to clear things up, the other impossible answer was Walk The Line,

starring Joaquin Phoenix.

Congratulations, Helen.

Go and take your place alongside Diane in today's final.

So just one place left in today's final alongside Diane and Helen.

Let's see who it's going to be.

Only seven of you surviving now.

Here are your five multiple-choice questions, starting with...

All seven of you

have gone for pashmina.

Let's see if it's the right answer.

It is. A point to all of you. Well done.

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

Wrasse. Wrasse is a fish.

Moving on to question two.

So let's reveal the right answer.

It's B, Richard II.

The only person who got that was Ash, who gets a point.

Penny.

How's your Shakespeare?

Do you know? My partner loves Shakespeare

and we go every year to a Shakespeare Festival.

I'm fairly sure I've seen Richard III.

We'll find out. Annie.

You went out on your own with Richard I.

Well, I did Macbeth at school, so it was a pure guess,

and I'm convinced I've gone now.

Let's find out.

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

'Impossible.'

I'm afraid it is Richard I.

It's not a Shakespeare play. I'm sorry, Annie.

You're eliminated today but we will see you again tomorrow.

-OK.

-The rest of you, let's move on to question three.

So we've got two Zeldas and four Laras.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's Lara Croft, B.

A point to everyone who put that.

Jo and Ash, you both put Zelda.

OK, let's see if you've given the impossible answer.

No, the impossible answer was Kirby - that is a male character.

Zelda is a female character.

You've clung on in there.

Question number four.

So we have five Graeme Gardens and one Tim Brooke-Taylor.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It was C, Graeme Garden.

A point to all of you who put that.

Tracy.

-Never mind.

-We're hoping

that Tim Brooke-Taylor was in The Goodies, I suppose.

I think so.

Whereas Eric Idle's Monty Python, I think.

OK. Let's reveal the impossible answer.

It is Eric Idle.

As you say, Eric Idle was a member of Monty Python.

Going into our final question.

Four of you have got three points -

they are Penny, Sarah, Richie and Ash.

So get those fingers working quickly.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It is Nero.

So that's a point to everyone who got that right.

Let's have a look at what the impossible answer was.

Pericles, not a Roman emperor,

he was an Athenian statesman.

That means this will come down

to who was fastest to lock in their answers.

The quickest to lock in their answers was Penny!

APPLAUSE

Congratulations, Penny.

You have a chance to grab a place in the final alongside Helen and Diane.

What a difference a day makes, Penny.

-Oh, God, yes.

-Yesterday, knocked out on the first question...

After sheer muppetry yesterday.

And then today nearly in the final.

-Yes.

-Who is going to be watching you at home?

-My wife.

-Uh-huh.

-Yep.

-Is she a keen quizzer?

Er...

She's...

She was born in Italy, so some questions,

like the sort of basic TV and stuff she doesn't get,

but her history is exceptional

and she always thrashes me if there's something history.

What would you spend the money on?

Well, I'd like to get my HGV licence.

There's a little theme running there.

-Right.

-In my 20s, I got my car licence.

In my 30s, I got my motorbike licence.

In my 40s, I got my pilot's licence,

so I'd look like to get my HGV licence

and it costs a fair amount of money to go up through the classes.

You have the chance now to add another £500 to today's prize pot,

which already stands at £900 thanks to Diane and Helen.

You'll also be a step closer towards playing the £10,000 question.

Of the remaining two topics, which do you want to go for?

Famous People or Geography?

I really do not like the look of Famous People,

so it will have to be Geography

and I hope it's a bit of the world I know.

I hope so, too. Your nine answers are...

And the first half of the question is,

in which former Yugoslav Republic...?

Part of the world you know?

-Horrendous!

-Horrendous! SHE LAUGHS

-OK.

-Five of those are impossible,

they couldn't possibly be the answer to a question starting like that.

You need to find those impossible answers.

So which of those are not former Yugoslav Republics?

I'll start by taking out Albania.

OK, so Albania locked-in.

Let's see if Albania is an impossible answer.

It is, £100 in the prize pot.

Not a horrendous start, Penny.

OK, second answer. Let's try and knock out another impossible.

Latvia.

Latvia, let's lock in Latvia.

Is Latvia an impossible answer?

It is.

In the Baltics, ex-USSR.

Right.

-OK.

-We'll make it a middle line clearance, we'll have Armenia out.

Let's see, is Armenia an impossible answer?

It is! Three from three, £300 added to the prize pot.

It now stands at £1,200, Penny.

Two more goes.

Let's see if we can eliminate the remaining two impossible answers.

-Where do you want to go next?

-Now it gets really tricky.

They always link Serbia and Montenegro together

when they make a speech,

so I'll try and take out Montenegro

and then maybe, if that one's wrong, Serbia... Yeah, Montenegro.

OK, is Montenegro an impossible answer?

I'm afraid it isn't, it is a former Yugoslav Republic.

One guess remaining.

Let's see if we can put another £100 into the prize pot.

Let's go for Moldova.

Moldova, let's lock in Moldova.

Is Moldova...

..an impossible answer?

It is! Well done, Penny, you've added £400 to today's prize fund,

which now stands at £1,300.

The question now is will you be playing for that money

and for a shot at a £10,000 question in today's final?

Please give me the right answer when I reveal the whole question.

The next best player from that round, who was Ash...

God, always the bridesmaid, never the bride!

Our bridesmaid Ash is waiting to steal your place in the final

if you give a wrong answer.

There is one impossible left up on the grid.

Hopefully that won't trip you up.

If you give me that, I'm afraid you will be eliminated.

The full question is...

In which former Yugoslav Republic is the city of Sarajevo?

I honestly have not got the foggiest idea.

Erm...

I'm just going to pick Serbia, I don't know.

Going to pick Serbia.

Let's get Serbia locked in.

Is Serbia the right answer?

I'm afraid it isn't, Penny.

That's a wrong answer,

that means that we're going to throw it over to Ash.

Ash, if you get this right, you steal Penny's place in the final.

If you don't...

..Penny has a lucky escape and she goes through.

I'm going to go...

..with Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Is Bosnia and Herzegovina the right answer?

It is.

Congratulations, Ash.

And, just to clear up the grid, the impossible answer was Slovakia,

which was one half of Czechoslovakia.

Unlucky, Penny.

We will see you again tomorrow. Ash, please join us for the final.

APPLAUSE

So, Diane, Helen and Ash, there's £1,300 in today's prize pot.

Only one of you can win that money

and get the chance to face the £10,000 question.

What do you do, Ash?

-I'm a musician, basically.

-OK.

Yeah, I sing and play guitar and stuff like that.

-What kind of stuff?

-Mostly acoustic stuff, so sort of folky stuff.

And if you won

the lot, the £10,000, what would you spend it on?

I really want to do an expedition along the silk route,

an overland expedition, so that would go into the expedition fund.

OK, the three of you are going to start with ten lives.

Questions are on the buzzer, most of them are normal,

straightforward questions with normal, straightforward answers.

Buzz and get one right, you knock a life off both of your opponents.

Buzz and get one wrong, you lose one of your own lives.

However, some of the questions are impossible,

that is to say there is no answer, the question's absurd,

it's a nonsense.

For example, which Thomas Hardy novel features

an eccentric recluse called Miss Havisham?

Miss Havisham is a character in Great Expectations

by Charles Dickens, it's not a Thomas Hardy novel at all,

so that would be an impossible question.

If you think you've spotted one of these,

all you have to do is buzz in and say impossible,

and that means double trouble for your opponents

because they will both lose two lives.

But if you say a question is impossible when it's not,

or give any other answer to an impossible question,

it's you who will be losing the two lives,

so you need to tread carefully.

The last surviving player takes the £1,300.

-Ready?

-Yes.

Good luck to you all.

In March 2014,

Gwyneth Paltrow announced that she and who

were to conscious...?

-Diane?

-Chris Martin.

To consciously uncouple, it was Chris Martin.

Which US state is named after one of the Channel Islands?

-Helen.

-Virginia?

I'm afraid not, it's New Jersey.

In 2015, Wayne Rooney scored his 50th goal for England,

overtaking whose record?

-Diane.

-Bobby Charlton.

It was Bobby Charlton.

Which London art gallery is home to Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa?

Ash. Impossible.

It is impossible, it's in the Louvre in Paris.

'Impossible.'

In the 1960s children's animation Trumpton,

what is the profession of the character Chippy Minton?

-Diane.

-A carpenter.

He was a carpenter.

What number on the Mercalli scale denotes a hurricane?

-Diane.

-Impossible.

It is impossible.

The Mercalli scale measures the intensity of an earthquake.

The Beaufort scale is for wind velocity,

so both Helen and Ash lose two lives.

'Impossible.'

The eruption of which volcano destroyed

the town of Pompeii in 7...?

-Helen.

-Vesuvius.

In 79 AD.

It was Vesuvius, well played.

Who wrote the novel Lady Chatterley's Lover?

Diane.

-DH Lawrence.

-It was DH Lawrence.

Take Helen down to one life.

Which composer's 94th Symphony is nicknamed the Surprise Symphony?

-Diane.

-Impossible.

It's not impossible, it was Joseph Haydn.

That means you lose two lives.

So close now, Diane on five, Ash on three, Helen on one.

In which decade of the 20th century did the Rolling Stones

have their first UK number one single?

-Ash.

-The 1960s.

It was the 1960s. It was 1964 with It's All Over Now.

Meaning, I'm afraid, Helen, you're eliminated.

Commiserations.

Diane and Ash, it's very tight.

Diane, you're on four. Ash, you're on three.

What type of poultry is traditionally used

to make rollmops?

-Ash.

-Impossible.

It is impossible.

They're traditionally made with pickled herring.

Diane, you lose two lives, taking you down to two.

Ash now ahead on three.

Who co-starred with Susan Sarandon as one of the title...?

-Diane.

-Geena Davis.

As one of the title characters in the 1991 film Thelma And Louise,

it was Geena Davis.

Two lives apiece now.

When spelling the word psychology,

which letter comes immediately before the S?

-Ash.

-Impossible.

It's not impossible, Ash, it's P.

I'm so sorry! SHE LAUGHS

It's P-S-Y.

-Yes, clearly.

-We will see you tomorrow, though.

Diane, once again, you are through to play the £10,000 question!

Diane, you've done it again, you're today's winner with £1,300.

The sad news is you will be leaving us after today's show

because this is your second attempt at the £10,000 question,

-and we're going to try and get you to Russia and the museums.

-Yes.

Here's how it works. I'm going to show you nine answers

and then ask a question.

Three of the nine answers are correct

and if you can find them all within ten seconds you win that £10,000.

There's the good news.

The not-so-good news is that three of the answers

are wrong - pick any of those and you won't win the £10,000.

The bad news is three of the nine answers are impossible -

give me any of those answers and you will lose the £1,300.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

Here it is.

Today's £10,000 question.

Hope it's a good one for you.

It is on Pop Music.

-OK.

-Good luck.

Here are your nine answers.

And you're looking for...

Michael Jackson songs that appear on the album Thriller.

And your time starts now.

Billie Jean, Beat It,

Man In The Mirror.

So your first answer was Billie Jean.

Is Billie Jean a right answer? Was Billie Jean on the album Thriller?

Yes!

-One down.

-One down.

-One down.

One down. Two to go.

Is Beat It on Michael Jackson's Thriller?

Yes!

-We've been here before, Diane.

-We have, yeah. Yeah.

Two right answers. Now all resting on your final answer,

Man In The Mirror. If Man In The Mirror is on the album Thriller...

..you will be going home with £10,000.

Is Man In The Mirror...

..a right answer?

Oh, Diane!

-I'm afraid it isn't.

-OK.

-You've still won the £1,300, though, that's some consolation.

-It is.

You've been an amazing player. We've loved having you on the show.

You have now had two attempts at the £10,000,

so we do have to say goodbye.

The right answer that you missed...

I don't know if with a bit more time you can get it.

Black Or White, I think. It was either or, so...

It's actually not Black Or White, it's Human Nature.

Makes me feel better then, that's fine!

-Good, I'm glad you feel better!

-That's fine!

-Human Nature.

The impossible answers, All Night Long is Lionel Richie,

Being With You is Smokey Robinson, and When Doves Cry is Prince.

You've won £1,300, Diane.

Add that to yesterday's winnings and it makes a grand total of £2,700.

You've been a fantastic player, we've loved having you,

-and I'm confident you are still going to get to Russia.

-Thank you.

APPLAUSE

This has been !mpossible, the quiz where anything is possible.

Goodbye.
