Episode 17 Copycats

Welcome to Copycats, with your hosts, Sam and Mark.

And today's Copycats are...

Jo's team from Cardiff,

and Jake's team from Leeds!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Hello! And welcome to Copycats, the gameshow where copying is good.

-What are you excited about?

-I had a dream about a gameshow idea

that will make us even more famous...

if that's possible.

Cool! What is it?

Well, here it is!

It's a gameshow where doors open and close

as people copy each other to win our ultimate prize.

Ooh! And there's a challenge for each team.

You've just described Copycats.

-What?

-Unbelievable. Shall we meet the teams?

-Yeah.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Jo, team captain, how are you doing?

-I'm excited.

-Is it nice being on Copycats?

-Amazing.

-Team, you all all right?

-ALL: Yes!

-Beautiful.

Before we go on, we're going to take a look at your audition tapes!

Oh no! Run it, will you?

My team will win.

HE PLAYS IT LIKE A TRUMPET

RAPPING: The best for the show We fit the part

So come on, Sam and Mark When do we start?

Frank, you can make some serious tunes come out of anything!

-Absolutely.

-Awesome, but can you make a tune come out of a kazoo?

-Yes.

-Good, that's good. We've got that round coming up later.

Lovely to have you here.

Best of luck, Jo's team.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

But over here, we've got Jake's team. Give me some.

-How's everybody, good?

-ALL: Yeah!

Well before we go on, we'll take a look at your audition tape.

How do you feel about that, good?

-Scared.

-Don't be scared. It's not that bad. Or is it?

-Yes!

LAUGHTER

# I...will always love you... #

I WOULD tell you all my talents, but there's not time.

That was funny, Tamsin. You were going, "Please don't show that!"

Anyway, give it up for Jake's team, everyone. Fantastic.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, it looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

The teams will take it in turns to copy pictures,

actions and displays of musical genius.

And each team will also take turns to face the Copycats Challenge

and the chance to win the ultimate prize -

it is of course, the Copycats Trophy!

AUDIENCE: Woo!

Yeah, it's a big deal.

We tossed a coin before the show

and Jake's team will go first. Let's play!

All right, I hope you've been brushing up on your artistic skills,

because it's time to play Quick on the Draw.

Melanie, I've got three cards. You'll pick one,

and then you have ten seconds to draw whatever is on it

for the player next to you, which is Jake.

There is a maximum of 50 points to be won in this round.

You lose 10 points for every incorrect answer.

-Copycats, are you ready?

-ALL: Yeah.

Let's close the doors.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Melanie, I've got blue, pink or yellow. Which would you like?

-Blue.

-Blue. Have a look at that.

-Yeah?

-Yeah.

-Confident?

-Yep.

Good, OK. Ready, steady, draw. Open the door.

OK, Jake...

OK...

All right, use all those ten seconds.

OK, come on. You can do this.

OK, Emma?

It started off so well!

Stop drawing!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-OK, for a maximum of 50 points.

-Any idea of what Emma has drawn there?

A sun?

It is not A sun, or THE sun.

You know, either way, it's wrong. OK, let's open the door.

For 40 points, Emma, what is that?

The solar system?

They're good guesses, and it is what it looks like,

but it's not what's on the card.

OK, let's open the door. For 30 points...

-A tambourine.

-No, it's not, I'm afraid.

-OK, let's open the door for 20 points, Tamsin.

-A necklace?

It's not a necklace! Oh!

OK, Jake - think outside the box, know what I'm saying?

Is it a roll of sausages?

LAUGHTER

It is, yeah! Well done, mate!

It's actually a string of sausages, but a roll of sausages is fine.

It does mean, Jake's team, you get yourselves off the mark -

10 points. Well done.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Frank. Yellow or pink?

-Yellow.

-Take a look.

-Right.

-Yeah?

-Had to think about it for a second. Reckon you can draw that?

-Yeah.

Best of luck. Ten seconds. Ready, steady, draw!

Great drawing. Jo, your turn. Get your pen ready.

OK.

It's good copying.

Harriet's nodding her head - always a good sign.

OK, go for it, Harriet.

OK, Vanessa - your turn.

Time's up - stop drawing!

OK, good copying. Really good copying down the line.

Betsan, for a maximum of 50 points,

what's the answer we're looking for?

-Is it Saturn?

-It is!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Yes!

-All right!

Nice work! That is a great start, guys.

You get yourselves 50 points.

All right, so after Quick on the Draw,

-are Jake's team as fit as a butcher's dog?

-Excellent.

And Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun -

-are Jo's team sixth?

-That's impossible.

Good point. Time to find out the scores.

Well, Sam - after Quick on the Draw:

OK, the next round

will test our teams' skill, nerve and determination.

This is the Copycats Challenge.

As Jake's team won the toss, they will go first.

Jo's team, so you don't get a sneaky peak,

we're sending you off.

We will bring you back, don't worry. Go and have a lie down.

-Chill out!

-Go and have a nap.

-See you! Bye!

-Bye!

OK, now Jake, as team captain, you now need to select three people

to face the tougher than tough - it's tough - Copycats Challenge,

but before you do, let's find out what's in store, Mr D.

The maze - it's divided into three parts. Each segment contains a ball.

Tilt the game to get the balls through the maze

and into the holes at the centre.

40 points will be awarded for each segment completed.

Come on, guys!

OK, in three, two, one, play!

So, just a minute to do this in. It's not long.

All about balance and coordination, this.

Talking to each other really does help.

"To me, to you." I sound like the Chuckle Brothers!

Come on, quickly as you can, guys.

Emma's segment first.

40 points for each segment completed.

Nearly there. There we are. Excellent. Good.

On to Lee's segment. There are some dead ends here,

so don't get caught down those.

Come on, 30 seconds.

Not long.

Keep going, talk to each other.

That is a dead end, so get out of there.

Good. Round to the other side.

There is an opening there.

Excellent!

HE LAUGHS

Oh, quickly as you can! Come on!

You need to get to the centre...

of the maze.

Quickly as you can, you're almost there.

Another 40 points, well done! This will have to be fast!

Oh!

Come on, guys, come on over.

Are you happy with that, Jake?

-Yeah.

-You should be - it was awesome. Well done.

We'll add those points after the music round.

Jo's team still need to face the Copycats Challenge.

Remember, these points could make all the difference.

A dream ticket to the Ball Room is at stake.

Round of applause, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Welcome back, Jo's team. All right, it's time to play Mime Time.

Jo, I've got three cards.

Pick one, then you'll have ten seconds

to mime to the person next to you, and so on and so on.

As usual, there's a maximum of 50 points to be won,

so if you think you know the answer,

you can add a bit more detail to help it down the line.

-Are you ready?

-Yes!

You sound ready! Let's close the doors.

Three cards - blue, pink, yellow.

-Blue, please.

-Take a look.

Ooh! Happy with that?

-Yep.

-Lovely. Ten seconds. Ready, steady, mime.

Good stuff. Justin, your turn, mate.

Harriet, your turn.

OK, Vanessa, go for it.

Betsan, your turn.

Time's up! OK.

Right...

Good copying down the line.

Frank, I reckon you're going to get this.

For 50 points, what's the answer?

-Skipping rope.

-Yeah!

Well done, guys.

I think we've got some genuine skippers in this team.

You were doing crossovers and everything!

"Not bothered!" Like Rocky Balboa! Well done, guys.

You get yourselves another 50 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right, Jake?

I have got two cards - pink and yellow. Which would you like?

I'll go for yellow.

OK, have a look at that.

-Yeah? Yeah?

-Yep.

All right, you look confident. I like that. Good luck.

Ready, steady, mime. Open the door.

OK, Tamsin.

OK, very good copying.

Excellent. OK.

All right, can't argue with the copying.

All right, stop copying.

Very good copying down the line, but for 50 points,

-what am I looking for, Melanie?

-Washing your face.

Yes!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-You did a great mime there, mate. Actor, when you grow up a bit?

-Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Tom Cruise here, yeah.

That means that you get

the maximum 50 points. Well done.

All right. So after Mime Time,

are Jo's team off to the world skipping championships,

or are they off down the skip to throw away a dirty duvet?

And have Jake's team applied moisturiser...

here and here?

We're going to find out the scores.

Mr D, what could they be, and do you moisturise?

-HE LAUGHS

-Occasionally! After Mime Time:

It's time to get serious now.

-Yeah.

-Because Jo's team are about to face the Copycats Challenge.

Earlier, Jake's team scored some important points,

but did they do enough?

Only time will tell. Jo, now it's your change to add some points.

-Are you ready?

-ALL: Yeah!

Now Jake's team, it's time for you to leave,

but you are coming back,

-so we'll say goodbye to you.

-Go and have a siesta. See you later.

See you later. Come on.

Remember, the results of the challenge will be revealed

at the end of the Music Round.

Now Jo, as team captain, you need to select

three people - three good people - to face this challenge.

Before you do, we'll go to Mr D, who'll tell us what you're doing.

The maze - as before, the maze is divided into three parts.

Each segment contains a ball.

Tilt the game to get them through the maze

and into the holes at the centre.

40 points are awarded for each segment completed.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Good luck, guys. In three, two, one, play!

Now don't forget, you've got to complete all three sections

in just one minute.

We're starting with Frank's segment.

Going in towards the centre of the maze.

40 points for each ball...

that completes this journey successfully into the hole.

Rock it backwards - wow, that's quick!

-Next it's Harriet's section.

-Wow!

-Round it goes.

Speak to each other, guys.

You've got to avoid the dead ends as well.

And that's being done successfully by Harriet.

She's moving, look at this!

-Straight towards the centre, and it's in!

-Yeah!

Just Jo's segment to go, then.

If the two teams have two segments,

it's the fastest team that receives 20 bonus points,

but we're already there, look at this!

So close!

Round it goes! Go into the hole!

Come on... Oh!

Oh! You're joking!

Unlucky - look, it's still going round.

Come over here, guys.

Come over here.

Come on, guys. Well done, guys.

There's only one more round to play before we add those points,

because we like to keep you in suspense. Well done.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

I'm here. Now, welcome back.

Now this is the Music Round.

Pick a well-known tune,

and then recreate it on this - the Copycats Kazoo.

OK, Tamsin, you'll play the kazoo and the player next to you

will play it to the person and so on.

We always have a maximum of 50 points,

so could everyone except for Tamsin please put their headphones on,

so you don't hear.

The Copycats are ready? In that case, let's close the doors!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, well I've got three cards -

a yellow one, a blue one and a pink one - which would you like?

-Pink.

-Pink?

-Yep.

-Have a look at that.

-Yeah? You know that?

-I think.

Well...

we're going to have a listen in the studio right now.

# Annie, are you OK? Annie, are you OK?

# Are you OK, Annie? You've been hit by...

# You've been hit by A smooth criminal... #

I'm not really leaning - it's the camera. Thank you very much!

You recognise? Yes? All right, get that kazoo in your hand.

Good luck, Tamsin.

Ready, steady, play. Open the door.

SHE PLAYS "SMOOTH CRIMINAL"

OK.

SHE PLAYS SOMETHING DIFFERENT

SHE STRUGGLES WITH LAUGHTER

LAUGHTER

That's amazing!

Come on.

SHE STRUGGLES WITH LAUGHTER >

SHE PLAYS THE SAME TUNE

Oh, amazing!

Ooh!

SHE PLAYS THE SAME TUNE

It's a lovely tune.

SHE PLAYS THE SAME TUNE

APPLAUSE

OK, Jake...

er...good luck, mate!

-Er...

-For the maximum, 50 points. Any idea what we're looking for?

We Will Rock You.

By Queen. Great song, but it's not what we're looking for.

Open the door for 40 points. Melanie.

It sounded a bit like EastEnders.

It did. Er, it's not, I'm afraid, the right answer.

Let's open the door.

-Please, what was Emma playing?

-Er, Coronation Street?

We're going through all the soaps, but it's not right.

-OK, let's open the door. Emma.

-Simpsons.

No, it's not.

-For the minimum...

-Was it Bad or something?

It was pretty bad.

-Oh, you mean Bad, by Michael Jackson?

-Yeah.

Unfortunately, it's the wrong one. Go on, which one was it?

-It was Smooth Criminal!

-By the legend that is Michael Jackson!

"SMOOTH CRIMINAL" PLAYS

Unfortunately, that means you get no points,

but I was entertained! Give 'em a round of applause!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right, Justin, mate. I've got two tunes left - blue or yellow.

-I'll go blue.

-Take a look.

-Do you know that tune?

-Ish.

-Don't worry.

-It's not one of my favourites.

Oh, I love it. I can't wait to play it to the studio. Here we go.

# We found lo-ove...

# So don't fight it

# Life is a rollercoaster Just got to ride it... #

All night long!

Big time. Oh! Love that tune. OK, good luck, Justin.

Pick up your kazoo. You've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, play.

HE STRUGGLES

HE PLAYS "LIFE IS A ROLLERCOASTER"

That's great, that was good.

SHE PLAYS SOMETHING DIFFERENT

That wasn't so good.

OK.

SHE PLAYS THE SAME TUNE

LAUGHTER

Betsan, your turn.

SHE PLAYS THE SAME TUNE

SHE LAUGHS

OK, Frank.

HE PLAYS THE SAME TUNE

Time's up!

OK!

OK, Jo, for 50 points, any idea?

-500 Miles?

-Great song, but it's not. We're playing for 40 points. Frank.

-Robbie Williams, Angels.

-It's not Robbie Williams, Angels. Betsan.

-30 points.

-Um... Solo?

-Solo? Oh, by Jason Derulo?

It's not.

-OK, we're playing for 20 points. Vanessa.

-Was it the Sound of Music?

Oh! It certainly wasn't! Definitely not.

OK, we're playing for 10 points. Harriet.

-Mama Mia?!

-Mama Mia!

It wasn't Mama Mia. Justin, do you want to tell everybody?

-It was Life is a Rollercoaster...

-By Ronan Keating, let's hear it.

# We found lo-ove... #

-Woo!

-# So don't fight it... #

I tell you - forget life. Copycats is a rollercoaster, big time.

-Justin, you did a great job.

-It wasn't bad.

Well sadly, that means you get no points,

but it was really entertaining,

thank you very much!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Right, so, after three rounds:

OK, guys, there are 40 points between the teams,

but we still have to reveal the scores from the Copycats Challenge.

Which team amazed us with their skill?

Which team are doing the quickstep to the Copycats Ball Room?

The wait is over. I can reveal

that both teams got two balls, scoring 80 points each.

so because it was a tie, the fastest team get a bonus 20 points.

Which means the team going through to the Copycats Ball Room

and playing for the trophy is...

..Jo's team!

Commiserations, Jake's team. Have you had a good time?

-Yeah.

-You've been a fantastic team. Thank you very much.

-Give it up for Jake's team.

-Jake's team - wahey!

OK, Jo's team. You've made it this far.

Now it's time to compete for this fabulous,

money-can't-buy, lovely, springy thing -

it's the Copycats Trophy!

Ooh, yeah! Check it out. It moves and everything. It's not electronic.

Yeah! It's got a spring and everything.

OK, here is the Ball Room.

Jo, who have you decided to take part in the Ball Room today?

-Betsan and Justin cos we're all confident.

-Excellent.

I like that. Well before we open the doors, let's take a look

at what you have to do to win this move-y thing...

The Ball Room. Players are each assigned a colour.

They must catch 12 of their colour

and deposit them in the scoring cylinders before the time runs out.

Good luck.

All right. Ready? In three, two, one - blast the balls!

12 of each colour in the scoring cylinders, please, then.

Jo is catching the blue balls,

Justin the yellow and Betsan the red.

-Quickly as you can, guys.

-Come on!

-Screaming advice there,

from outside the Ball Room. Inside, a lot of action.

Bear in mind, you cannot pick these balls up from the floor.

You have to catch them in the air if you can.

They're totting up already - and that's why.

These balls are going in very quickly,

and still lots of time left.

Red, blue and yellow scoring very well.

Just 12 all you need. Quickly as you can. Well done, Jo.

A couple going in for Justin - yellow balls -

and Betsan catching the red. She's doing very well.

Almost there as far as the blues are concerned.

Once Jo's finished,

she can help Justin and Betsan.

Come on. Quickly as you can. You're there!

Wow!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Wow!

-That was quick.

That was really quick.

Jo, at one point, you had ten balls in your hand! Shuffle hands!

That's what you had right there.

Well, Jo's team, it gives me great pleasure to award you with this -

-it's the Copycats Trophy!

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Jo! Hold it up, high in the sky!

Yay!

Oh, made me feel good, that.

It made me feel REAL good.

See you next time on Copycats. Byesy-bye-byes.
