Episode 18 Copycats

Welcome to Copycats with your hosts Sam and Mark.

Today's Copycats are...

Alys's team from Newcastle

and Charlotte's team from Surrey.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Thank you very much.

-BOTH: Hello!

-Welcome to Copycats. In the normal world, copying is...

-Bad.

-But here, copying is...

-Good.

-So good, it could win you the ultimate

-money-can't-buy prize.

-The Copycats trophy!

-AUDIENCE: Ooh!

-Good "Ooh"s, I like you!

-Shall we meet today's Copycats?

-If we don't, we don't have a show.

Let's do it!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Alys, how you doing? Are you all right?

-Yeah, good.

Welcome to the show, Alys's team, you all all right?

-Very good.

-You ready for some serious copying?

-Yeah.

-Beautiful.

We are going to take a quick look at your audition tape.

This is the reason you're on Copycats. This should be very funny.

Roll the tape!

HE QUACKS

HE QUACKS

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Alys's family, thank you very much. Welcome to Copycats.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Ah, Charlotte's team. How you doing? You look nervous.

I'm nice, really! Promise.

We've seen Alys's team's audition tape. It's only fair we see yours.

This should be very amusing.

I can't move the feet - I'll trip over.

Charlotte's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

The teams will take it in turns to copy pictures,

actions and displays of musical genius.

To get as many points as possible, each team will take turns to face

the Copycats Challenge later on.

We tossed a coin before the show - Alys's team will play first.

Let's play Copycats!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Alys's team, I hope you've been brushing up on your artistic skills.

It's time for Quick On The Draw.

Mike, I've got three cards. You'll pick one and have ten seconds

to draw whatever is on the card for Alys, and so on down the line.

There's a maximum 50 points to be won in this round.

But as we pass it back down the line,

you'll lose ten points for each wrong answer.

Perfect pictures get perfect points. Best of luck. Are you ready?

-Yeah.

-Ready.

-Beautiful. Let's close the doors.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right, Mike. Pink, blue or yellow?

-Pink. Nice. Reckon you can draw that?

-I think so.

Right. The best of luck.

You've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, draw!

Take a good look, Alys.

Not a bad drawing at all.

Very good. OK, Alys, your turn.

Dani, your turn. She's shaking her head. Just draw what you saw.

Yeah...

It's a good copy.

This is not easy with only ten seconds.

Good luck, Jill, your turn.

Where's your pen? Get your pen!

Oo-hoo-hoo!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Anna, for a maximum 50 points, any idea what Jill has drawn?

-A tooth?

-Oh, good thinking. It does look like a tooth

but that's not the answer.

We're playing for 40 points. Open the door. Jill, any idea?

-A seal?

-Nice thinking again. It does look a bit like a seal

but that's not the answer,

which means we're playing for 30 points. Livie?

-Is it a boat?

-It's not a boat.

We're playing for 20 points. Dani?

-Is it a fish diving into the sea?

-It does look like that

but that's not the answer!

-Any idea what Mike's drawn? It's good.

-An anchor?

-It is an anchor!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Nice work, well done, Alys. You get ten points!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Good luck, Lea. You've got two cards to pick from - blue or yellow.

Blue, please.

-OK.

-All right?

-Fine. Lovely.

-Got that in your head?

Good luck, Lea. Ready, steady, draw!

OK, get as much detail in as you can. Just ten seconds.

all right. Charlotte.

Ooh.

Probably should have taken your pen top off before you started.

Ooh, here we go.

Oh.

Ooh!

Keep watching, Morgan.

Five seconds left. Get as much detail in as you can.

All right. Morgan.

Very good copying down the line.

Great copying.

Great copying. OK, Paul, you've got ten seconds.

Five seconds left. Get as much in there... Laura looks confused.

-OK, time's up.

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Good copying there, I must say.

For a maximum of 50 points, any idea what Paul has drawn there?

It is like...a bath?

It isn't LIKE a bath. It IS a bath!

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Yes!

Well done, Charlotte's team - 50 points!

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Brilliant.

At the end of Quick On The Draw, has Alys's team hit rough water?

-Is Charlotte's team soaking in a warm bath?

-Mm.

It's time to find out the scores. Mr D, what could they be?

Well, Sam, after Quick On The Draw, Alys's team have 10 points

and Charlotte's team have 50 points.

The next round will test our teams' skill, nerve and determination.

Yes, the game just got serious. This is the Copycats Challenge.

-Good tense, there.

-Thanks, mate. Alys's Team, you won the toss,

you guys will go first attempting the challenge.

But before we reveal what awaits you, there's one more thing to do.

Charlotte's team, so you don't have an unfair advantage for your turn,

we'll send you away so, goodbye for now. Off you go. No offence.

-Bye!

-Bye!

Alys, as team captain, you need to pick three people to take part

in the daunting Copycats Challenge.

But before you do, let's find out what's in store for you.

Mr D, # Over to you! #

The tower. Players must attempt to remove 12 blocks one at a time

without the structure falling over.

Ten points will be awarded for each block removed.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-So you know what you're doing?

-Yep.

-Beautiful. Who's first?

-Me.

-Alys.

In that case, Jill and Mike, step off the mat, please.

Alys, the best of luck, we're rooting for you.

Your time starts now.

So the team captain gets us underway

and selects one of the black blocks in the middle of the tower.

And yes, she removed it. Well done.

Next, in goes Jill.

She's going for one of the red ones. That comes out smoothly. Excellent.

And third to have a go is Mike.

Nudges a black block towards the top of the tower.

Pulls it through. Success!

They're doing very well here. Alys having another go.

Ten points for each block successfully removed.

Gently does it, Alys. Excellent! Next it's Jill.

Bounds over. Which one's she going to go for?

They're going for the central blocks. No sides ones chosen so far.

Gently does it. Well done! Next, it's Mike.

Going for the red one. High up.

Almost at the top of the tower. You can't... Oh, careful!

The game stops if the tower topples. You've got to be very careful.

Back to Alys.

Go on, Alys. Gently does it.

Well done.

Got to choose 12 in all.

There we go - excellent! Back in with Mike.

Not long, Mike, come on.

Don't dilly-dally on this one. Excellent.

And Alys, got time for one more here. Quickly, come on.

Quickly as you can. She's going for a side block.

Got to choose the right one!

Oh.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Oh, no!

Ohh.

Oh, Alys. Sadly, we can't count that last one because it toppled the tower

but you did get nine, which was fantastic. A cracking start.

-Did you enjoy that?

-Yeah.

-Excellent.

We will add those challenge points to your total after the music round.

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

The points from these challenges could make all the difference -

a ticket to the Ball Room is at stake.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Welcome back to the show, Charlotte's team.

-You having a good time?

-ALL: Yeah.

That's the main thing. Let's play Mime Time. I have three cards -

you'll pick one and have ten seconds to mime whatever is on that card

for Jenny, and so on down the line.

We're looking for silent performances.

There's a maximum 50 points to be won in this round.

If you think you know the answer, try and add more detail,

because we want you to get the maximum 50 points, OK?

Perfect performances win perfect points. Are you ready?

ALL: Yes!

Yes! In that case, close the doors.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right, Charlotte. I've got three cards - purple, blue and yellow.

-I'll go for purple.

-Have a look.

-OK.

-All right. Ready, steady, mime!

Very good, very good.

Lots of detail there.

Keep watching, Morgan.

Very good, Jenny.

Very good.

Got some budding Charlie Chaplins in here.

OK.

I think Paul's got that. Looks confident.

All right.

All right, Laura.

Laura's nodding confidently. This is a good sign.

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-That was very impressive,

but do you know what it is?

-I think she's playing a piano.

-It's not what we're looking for.

OK, let's open the doors. For a maximum 40 points, Laura,

-any idea what Paul was miming?

-Was he on the computer?

He was on the computer!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

That means Charlotte's team get 40 points!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Alys, yellow or blue?

-Blue, please.

-Blue. Take a look.

-OK.

-Reckon you can mime that?

-Yeah.

I reckon you can, too.

OK, you've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, mime!

Very good. Go for it, Dani.

Very good mime. Very good.

Take a good look, Jill.

All right, Jill, it's your turn.

Anna's nodding her head.

All right, Anna, your turn.

Time up! OK. Very good miming. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Very good acting down the line there.

OK, Mike, for a maximum of 50 points, any idea what Anna was doing there?

Generally, putting on make up. Specifically, mascara?

Oh, yes!

Very good. And Dani, even twisting the bottle and everything.

Have you seen how much I wear?

They look beautiful. Excellent stuff. That is a cracking round. 50 points!

Right, at the end of Mime Time, will Charlotte's team make it

to the bonus level and save the princess?

Whereas, Alys's team are sitting pretty in the make-up room

but will they make it to the ballroom?

Let's find out those all-important scores. Mr D, what could they be?

After Mime Time, Alys's team have 60 points and Charlotte's team have 90.

OK, it's time to get serious once again because Charlotte's team

are about to face the Copycats' Challenge.

Earlier in the show, Alys's team built up a pile

of those all-important points but did they do enough?

Charlotte's team, it's your chance to add crucial points

to your overall score. Ready?

-ALL: Yeah!

-You look ready. I like it.

Definitely. Alys's team, it's time to say goodbye to you for a second.

Bye! Remember, the result of the challenge will be revealed

at the end of the music round when the extra points scored may determine

which team wins their tickets to the ball.

Charlotte, you need to select three people

to face the Copycats Challenge. First, let's look

at what's in store for you. Mr D, tell us what it could be.

The Tower. Players must attempt to remove 12 blocks,

one at a time, without the structure falling over.

10 points will be awarded for each block removed.

-All right, who is going to be playing first?

-Me.

Paul, OK. Stand on the mat. You two, come over here with me.

Good luck, Paul. Your time starts now.

And in that time, you can remove up to 12 blocks.

He's starting off with a red one, is Paul.

Gently does it. We're off to a good start.

Next it's Charlotte, team captain.

She pushes that through. Gently does it.

We don't want her toppling, do we? That's the last thing we want.

Jenny next. Which one's she going to go for?

Well, it's another yellow one. Brilliant. Going well.

Paul next, further up the tower this time. Another yellow.

Excellent, well done.

Nice smile.

Charlotte, very quickly pushes through.

Brilliant. We're stacking these blocks up now.

Next, it's Jenny.

A black block again.

That's it. Pull it through, nice and gently.

A little bit of movement there. Well done.

Now, Paul going up the tower...

Oh, no, you can't take one of the top ones, that would be too easy.

Being very gentle about this.

If this tower topples, the game is over. Gently!

Which one's he going to go for now? A red one.

You've got to push one of those back. That's hard work.

Brilliant! Well done, Paul.

Next, Charlotte.

That's why Charlotte's the captain. She knows what she's doing. Jenny!

Any of these will do, absolutely. Get them back.

Marvellous!

That means you got nine blocks. Well done.

Only one more round to play before we add

those points to your total because we like to keep you guessing.

Welcome back, Alys's team. This is the Music Round.

All you have to do is pick a well-known tune

and play it to the person next to you, using the Copycats kazoo.

Now, Livie, you need to listen very, very carefully to what Dani plays

because you will be the one passing it, hopefully successfully,

down the line. There is a maximum of 50 points to be won.

Perfect playing means perfect points.

Put your headphones on so you don't hear the song.

OK. Our Copycats are ready. In that case, let's close the doors.

-Blue, yellow or pink?

-I think I'll go for pink.

-Take a look.

Do you know that song?

I know it. Whether I can play it's another question!

We are going to play it.

-# Who let the dogs out?

-Who, who, who, who?

-# Who let the dogs out?

-Who, who, who, who?

# Who let the dogs out? #

Dani, you've got ten seconds. Good luck. Ready, steady, play!

SHE BLOWS KAZOO

Not bad at all. Olivia, your turn.

Go on, Jill.

Anna, go!

OK, Mike.

Time's up! OK.

That started off pretty well but it went a little strange near the end.

Alys, for a maximum of 50 points, any idea what Mike was playing?

We're looking for the title of the song.

-Single Ladies?

-Ooh! # All the single ladies... #

No, it wasn't! OK. That means we're playing for 40 points.

-Mike, any idea?

-Don't Stop Believing?

-It wasn't.

Any idea what Jill was playing there?

-Mamma Mia?

-It wasn't Mamma Mia,

which means we're playing for 20 points. Jill?

Who, who put the thing in the party... or something?

Ooh! Sounds close but...

That's not the right answer. OK. We're playing for ten points.

-Livie, what was Dani playing?

-Was it Who Let The Dogs Out?

Yes! # Who let the dogs out? #

That's the one! Well done. You get yourself ten points.

-All right, you can either pick yellow or blue.

-Blue, please.

Have a look at that.

-Yeah?

-Yeah...

-Any good?

If you're struggling, we're going to play it now.

# And I...

# Will always love you...

# I will always... #

-Got it? Ready to play?

-Yeah.

OK. Ready, steady, play!

Open the doors.

Come on, Laura.

Amazing.

So delicate.

This is truly remarkable.

Time's up!

Please, please...

That was a new version of that song.

Charlotte, for 50 points, any idea what Lea was playing on the kazoo?

Um... Oh My Gosh by Usher.

Oh My Gosh by Usher? It wasn't.

All right, let's open the doors for 40 points. Any idea?

-Was it the Coronation Street theme?

-It did sound a bit like it.

The vibrato on the kazoo, it was good.

Let's open the door. For 30 points,

Laura, any idea what Paul was playing?

-Can You Feel The Love Tonight?

-Great song. It's not that though.

-For 20 points, any idea?

-The Doctor Who theme.

It wasn't. All right. Finally, ten points. Morgan, any idea?

-We Three Kings?

-We Three Kings?

-I don't know!

Neither do I, mate, don't you worry about it.

If I was there, I wouldn't have known either.

Jenny, put us out of our misery, please!

I Will Always Love You by Whitney Houston.

# And I...

# Will always love... #

Did you not get that?

I can't believe they didn't get it.

I can not believe you didn't get that

from the way she was playing it. It means you don't go first any more!

You also get zero points.

Round of applause anyway.

So, after three rounds, Alys's team have 70 points

and Charlotte's team have 90 points.

All right, both teams played very well, with some super copying

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

Which team conquered the Tower?

Which team are set to storm the Copycats' Ballroom?

-Mark, over to you.

-Thank you, Mr Sam Nixon.

The wait is over. I can reveal that incredibly,

both teams scored 90 points in the challenge.

Which means, the team going through to the Copycats' Ballroom

and playing for the trophy is...

It's Charlotte's team!

Congratulations to Alys's team. That means we have to say goodbye.

-Have you had a good day?

-Yes!

-Excellent. Alys's team, everybody.

OK, you've made it this far. Now it's time to compete

for the money can't buy, limited edition,

lovely thing that is the Copycats Trophy.

Yeah! It's so nice and bendy.

Here is the ballroom. Now, Charlotte, who have you decided

is going to take part?

-Me, Morgan and Laura.

-Excellent.

-Adults didn't have a chance.

-No!

They're gutted.

Before they open the doors, let's look at what you have to do to win.

The Ballroom. 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!

If you're ready, three, two, one...

BOTH: Blast the balls!

12 of each colour needed in the scoring cylinders.

Laura is catching blue balls, Charlotte the yellow

and Morgan, the red balls. Here we go.

What's happening inside right now? A lot of action, a lot of smiling.

Happy people in there. Are they catching many balls?

They are, look at that.

Three in the blue, quite a few in the red

and a little bit behind with the yellow ones at the moment.

Come on, girls. Quick as you can.

Very good.

Advice being offered from outside as well on how to do it.

Not sure whether you can hear on the inside.

They're just getting on with it.

Lots of blue ones going in. Well done, Laura.

Well done, Morgan, as well.

As soon as you get your 12 balls inside the scoring cylinder,

you can help. So Charlotte will be assisted at some point.

Quickly as you can.

Well done, Laura. You're almost there with your 12.

Totting them up now.

Charlotte on the yellow, Morgan, the red balls.

Look at that. He's doing well.

That's exactly the right advice there, help Charlotte.

Come on! Quickly as you can, guys.

We're running out of time. We're almost there!

I think you're there!

You're the winners of this bendy Copycats trophy! Yeah!

There you go, Charlotte. Team captain.

That was fantastic, well done.

That's the end of the show. Have you had a good time?

-ALL: Yeah!

-Everybody else?

-ALL: Yes!

We'll see you next time on Copycats!

BOTH: Bye!
