Episode 49 Buzz and Tell

'It's time to sit back and shout at the screen. It's Buzz & Tell!'

CHEERING

'And here to fire the questions and duck as the answers are fired back,

'it's Walter Flipstick!'

Hello and welcome to Buzz & Tell.

I'm the one with the questions

so, straight away, let's meet the ones with the answers.

I'm Melanie Wiggles and I live in Carrotshire.

I'm Ken Koala.

I like pretending I'm not in the room by closing my eyes.

I'm Orange Bernard

and I make bananas straight by staring at them for a long time.

I'm Charles Cheese and if the world was made of cheese,

I'd be as big as the world!

And I'm one Mr Biscuits

and I can balance 14 biscuits on my head for several minutes.

There we have it - a bunch of really wonderful contestants.

I hope they can answer the questions I've got lined up.

Here's the first round and it's the Missing Word Round.

Can you tell me what the missing word is in this sentence?

The hair on a horse's neck is called a what?

BUZZER RINGS 'Mr Biscuits!'

The hair on a horse's neck is called...hair.

I'm afraid not, Mr Biscuits. It is hair, but it has a special name.

BUZZER RINGS 'Melanie Wiggles!'

I've got a special name.

Is it called Melanie, like me?

Your name is special.

But it's not the name of the hair on a horse's neck.

BUZZER RINGS 'Orange Bernard!'

Banana, if it was yellow.

Or, if it was orange, it would be Orange Bernard.

Very interesting, but it's nowhere near the answer.

It's a short word and it rhymes with "lane".

BUZZER RINGS 'Charles Cheese!'

Jane!

No.

BUZZER RINGS 'Melanie Wiggles!'

-Rain.

-No.

BUZZER RINGS 'Charles Cheese!'

Train!

No.

BUZZER RINGS 'Ken Koala!'

-Can I answer?

-No.

Sorry. Of course, Ken Koala. What do you think it is?

A mane.

-CHEERING

-Yes, it is! Well done, Ken Koala.

The hair on a horse's neck is called a mane. A point to you.

Now we go on to the next round, our Picture Round.

Take a look at this, can you tell me what it is?

BUZZER RINGS 'Charles Cheese!'

I think it's an onion you can see through.

No.

BUZZER RINGS 'Orange Bernard!'

-I'll guess that it's a balloon with a glow-worm inside it.

-No.

BUZZER RINGS 'Melanie Wiggles!'

If I said it was a beach ball that glows in the dark

-would I get a point?

-No.

BUZZER RINGS 'Mr Biscuits!'

When it gets dark in our house, I have to press a light switch

and one of these comes on and lights the room up. It's a light bulb!

-CHEERING

-It is a light bulb!

Well done, Mr Biscuits. A point to you for being so bright! Ha-ha!

Now our Numbers Round - we're going to do some adding.

Fingers on buzzers and listen carefully.

If I have two doors open in my house and I open three more,

what do I have?

BUZZER RINGS 'Orange Bernard!'

A very cold house, ha-ha!

You are silly, leaving those doors open, Mr Flipstick.

I didn't leave my doors open,

I just made it up so I could ask the question.

Why didn't you say so? Ask me the question again. I've forgotten it.

Oh. If I had two doors open in my house and I opened three more,

how many doors would be open?

This is a numbers round, remember.

BUZZER RINGS 'Melanie Wiggles!'

Two doors open and three more open...

That's two add three which is five.

You're right, Melanie.

I'd have five doors open. Two doors add three is five.

A point to you, Melanie. Well done. We go on to our last round,

the round about sound - our Sound Round.

Listen to this sound and see if you can tell me what it is.

PARROT SQUAWKS

BUZZER RINGS 'Melanie Wiggles!'

If I said that was a carrot, would I be right?

No, but something that sounds like "carrot" makes this noise.

How can it sound like a carrot if a carrot doesn't make a sound?

He's right, Mr Flipstick!

I haven't made myself clear.

I mean it sounds like the WORD "carrot". It rhymes with "carrot".

BUZZER RINGS 'Charles Cheese!'

-Carrot!

-What?

Carrot rhymes with carrot.

They're the same word.

Things only rhyme if they're different words that SOUND the same.

I knew that.

BUZZER RINGS 'Mr Biscuits!'

It rhymes with "carrot" and makes a squawking noise.

-Yes...

-It's a parrot!

You're right, Mr Biscuits, it's a parrot.

With almost no help from me, either.

That's a point to you.

So let's look at the scores at the end of the show.

DRUM ROLL

Well, we have a winner,

and it's Mr Biscuits

with a stonking two points!

'And your special prize is a year's supply of toast.'

Oh, lovely!

Well, that brings us to the end of another show.

See you next time on Buzz & Tell!
