Episode 21 Copycats

Welcome to Copycats!

With your hosts, Sam and Mark!

And today's Copycats are -

Orla's team from Glasgow,

And Lili's team from Somerset!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-What a lively bunch!

-Yeah.

BOTH: Hello!

Welcome to Copycats, the gameshow where, unlike in a computer exam,

copying from the person next to you is encouraged.

In fact, it could win you the ultimate money-can't-buy prize.

Yes indeed, you can forget the World Cup, the Wimbledon trophy,

even me coming eighth in the British Breakdancing Championship.

-Surely not(!) How many people were in it?

-I don't want to talk about it.

It was, uh, it was eight.

Today's teams will be playing for

the greatest prize in game show history,

it's the Copycats trophy!

CROWD: Oooooh!

-"Ooooh" indeed!

-Oh yeah! Shall we meet today's teams?

-Let's.

-Let's do it!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Orla, plant it there! Team captain, how you doing?

-Good!

-Good, excellent! Team, you all all right?

ALL: Yeah!

Before we go any further, we want to get to know you better.

We're going to take a look at your audition tape.

This is the reason you guys are on Copycats.

# We're the best Copycats Tell me why. #

Woo!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Excellent, good luck! It's Orla's team, everybody!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

All right, over here we've got Lili's team!

High five, Lili.

Yes! That's what I'm talking about.

How is everyone else?

-Good? Raring to go?

-Absolutely.

Will you think that when we see your audtion tape?

Charlie, Alpha, Papam

Yankee, Charlie

No? Oh, that's Capycats!

CHEERING

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Welcome, the Capycats!

Let's give it up for Lili's team, everyone!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

It looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

As with every game of Copycats,

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,

which told us Lili's team will play first. Let's play Copycats!

CHEERING

Right! OK, Lili's team, I hope you've been brushing up on your art,

it's time to play Quick On The Draw.

Rob, I've got three cards in my hand,

you will pick one and have ten seconds to draw what is on it

for the player next to you, Lili, and then so on down the line.

There are 50 points to be won. But as you pass it down the line,

you lose ten points for every incorrect answer.

Copycats, are you ready?

ALL: Rady!

Ready! In that case, let's close the doors.

CHEERING

OK, Rob, mate, We've got pink, blue and yellow, which would you like?

-I'll take pink, for my daughter.

-Lovely.

Have a look at that.

-OK, got that in your head?

-OK. Yeah.

-OK.

Best of luck. Ready, steady, draw!

Open the door.

It's really good!

Amazing!

They'll love copying that, that was unbelievably good.

Ah.

Good luck, Paul.

OK, come on, use all your ten seconds. I can't stress that enough.

Um...interesting one.

To be fair, you're very limited on what you could have copied there.

OK, stop drawing!

APPLAUSE

OK, Bethany, for the maximum of 50 points,

what has Rachel drawn there?

Cactus?

It looks like a cactus, but it's not what we're looking for.

Open the door, for 40 points.

What's the answer? 40 points!

-Parachute?

-It's not a parachute, I'm afraid.

-Let's open the door for 30 points. Lucy?

-Is it like a mannequin thingy?

A mannequin thingy? Let's check it, no, it's not on my card!

Let's open the door, 20 points.

-What could it be?

-A bird?

Got to be very specific on the type of bird.

A stork?

It is not a stork, I'm afraid.

Let's open the door for 10 points. Amazing drawing, that is.

-Oh! It's a flamingo.

-It's a flamingo, yes!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

That means that Lili's team, you get yourselves off the mark,

you've got ten points, well done!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, pick a card, yellow or blue?

-I'll go for the yellow one.

-Yellow. Take a look.

-Reckon you can draw it?

-I'll do my best.

-That's what we like to hear.

Best of luck, you've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, draw!

Not bad at all. Orla, your turn.

OK, Katie, go for it.

Try and use all of the ten seconds if you can.

OK, Rose, go for it.

LAUGHTER

OK, Debbie, your turn.

Time's up! OK!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

All right, Eimear,

for 50 points, what's the answer we're looking for?

A cat?

It looks like a cat, but that's not the answer!

We're playing for 40 points. What do you think the answer is?

Is it a teddy bear?

It's not a teddy bear. Which means we're playing for 30 points. Rose.

-A pig?

-A pig!

I see where you're going, but that is not the answer,

so we're playing for 20 points. Katie.

A giraffe?

A giraffe?!

It's not a giraffe.

We're playing for ten points. Orla, what do you think it is?

-An aeroplane?

-An aeroplane?

It's not. Tommy, do you want to tell everybody?

-A ladybird.

-A ladybird!

APPLAUSE

That means Orla's team get no points.

But it was a lot of fun watching, give them a round of applause.

APPLAUSE

Right, after Quick On The Draw, our Lili's team flamin-going crazy

-after that performance.

-Excellent.

Is it a bug's life for Orla's team?

It's time to find out the scores. Mr D? Tell us!

I will! Well, Sam, it's a close start.

Orla's team have no points

and Lili's team have ten points!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-It is close.

-So close.

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

Yes, the game just got serious

because this is the Copycats Challenge.

Lili's team won the toss so they get first go.

Orla's team, so you don't have an unfair advantage,

and a sneaky peek at the challenge, we're going to send you off.

But we'll bring you back! See you later!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Right, now, Lili, as team captain, you need to select three people

to face the formidable Copycats Challenge,

Before you do, let's find out what's in store. Over to you, Mr D!

The bounce.

You'll be shown five shapes and must attempt to copy them by bouncing

on the trampoline. To score, you must take off

and land in the central square.

Ten points will be awarded for every successful shape.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Good luck, Paul. Are you ready to spring into action?

-I think so!

-OK.

Good luck to you. In 3... 2... 1... bounce!

Paul sounds confident. Let's see how he gets on!

Off to a good start. And the second one.

Come on.

get the leg straight, come on.

On to the third one.

Try that one.

Oh! Ha-ha-ha!

He nearly fell over.

To the fourth shape.

Come on, get this together, come on!

No. On to the fifth shape.

Try that again.

Yes! Well done.

Not a bad start though, Paul.

Well done.

Well done, mate.

Lili's next.

Come on, Lili.

Here we go.

First one.

Brilliant.

And the second shape. Careful!

Right on the line, but...yes!

Well done. And the third shape.

Yes! Very good at that.

And the fourth shape.

Yes! Straight away.

Fifth shape.

Last one for Lili. Here we go. Try again.

Get the leg out! Oh!

Let's see how Lucy gets on, shall we?

Very good score by Lili there, though.

Come on, Lucy.

See if you can do well.

Off to a good start, well done. Second shape.

How do you do that?

That's how you do it! The third shape.

The arms are too high, try and get them level.

Oh! Never mind, on to the fourth one.

Yeah! All right with that.

Good. And the fifth shape.

Watch the arms, get the arms out straight, come on!

Come on! Oh! Very good, Lucy.

Well done, Lucy.

Come on, darling.

We're going to count your bounces and add those challenge points

to your total after the music round.

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

The points from the challenges could make all the difference,

a dream ticket to the Ball Room is at stake.

Round of applause!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Very good, very bendy!

Orla's team, welcome back.

On Quick On The Draw you got no points,

I reckon you'll get loads of points this round. Yeah?

ALL: Yeah!

Yeah! Well, let's play Mime Time. Now, Orla,

I've got three cards. You'll choose one and then have ten seconds

to mime what is on it to the person next to you and so on down the line.

There are 50 points to be won in this round,

If you think you know the answer,

you can add more detail to help you get to the end.

Copycats, are you ready?

ALL: YEAH!

In that case, let's close the doors!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK.

Orla, pink, yellow or blue?

-Pink.

-The pink one, take a good look.

Yep!

Reckon you can do that? Best of luck.

Ten seconds. Ready, stead, mime!

Katie's nodding her head, good sign.

OK, Katie.

All the time.

All right, Rose, your turn.

OK, Debbie, go for it.

All right.

Here we go, ten seconds.

Time's up!

OK, good miming!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

All right, Tommy, for 50 points, what's the answer we're looking for?

She's eating something... corn on the cob?

Yeah!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Nice work!

Very good.

You get yourselves 50 points!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

I've got a yellow and a blue card left, which one would you like?

-Yello.

-Yellow?

Have a look at that, darling.

-Got that in your head?

-Yeah.

OK, fantastic.

Good luck to you.

Ready, steady, mime! Open the door.

Couldn't get much more graphic than that.

OK.

Yeah, watch the door!

OK, Rachel.

The concentration on Bethany's face is astounding.

OK, finally...

Ten seconds left, come on! Get some detail in there.

Not that much detail.

Stop miming!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Rob, I think you've got this in the bag, mate.

I'm looking for that 50 points. I think it was brushing your teeth.

You think right! Yes!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Lili's team,

you get the maximum 50 points. Well done.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

After Mime Time, was that a corny performance for Orla's team?

And are Lili's team whiter than white?

LAUGHTER

We're going to find out those important scores.

Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Mark,

'after Mime Time, Orla's team have 50 points,

'and Lili's team have 60 points.'

Time to get serious again

because Orla's team are about the face the Copycats Challenge.

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

of those important points in their challenge

but did they do enough? Only time will tell. Orla's team,

it's your chance to get some crucial points added to your overall score.

Are you ready? ALL: Yes!

-All right!

-Lili's team,

-time for you to leave, but we will be seeing you.

-Bye!

-Bye.

The results 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 Room.

-Orla,

as team captain, you need to select three people

to take part in the Copycats Challenge, but before you do that,

let's take a look at what's in store. Mr D, tell us.

'The Bounce. As before, you'll be shown five shapes

'and must attempt to copy them by bouncing on the trampoline.

'To score, you take off and land in the central square.

'Ten points will be awarded for every successful shape.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Orla, are you ready to spring into action?

-Yeah.

-Beautiful.

In that case, three, two, one, bounce!

'Here we go. Team captain to start. Orla.

'First shape straightaway, brilliant.

'And the second one. How's she going to do this?

'Hand behind the knee? Try again. Yes! Well done.

'Third shape.

'Good try. Try again. Yes!

'Excellent. And the fourth shape. Oh, come on.

'She's thinking about it. You haven't got time to think! Come on!

'Next shape. Fifth and final shape. Yes!

'Straightaway. Very well done, Orla.

'Good start.'

Well done, Orla.

'Rose is next.

'Getting up to speed, there's the first shape.'

Yay!

'And that's how to do it, well done. Second shape.

'Oh.

'Watch that leg.

'The leg in the right place. OK, onto the third.

'Straightaway with that one. Good. Fourth shape. Come on.

'Stand up.

'It'll be straight up. And the next one.

'Fifth shape.

'Now, get the leg out to the side.

'Oh. Good effort, though, Rose.

'Eimear.

'Let's see how Eimear gets on. First shape. There it is.

'That's how to do it.

'Second shape.

'Get those legs right, come on. Looking down at her legs there!

'Never mind. Third shape. Try that one. And again. Yes!

'And the fourth shape.

'Now, get those get legs, get the knee... It's not forwards!

'Get the knee to the side.

'And the fifth shape. Try that one instead.

'Oh, no! It's the other leg, try the other leg! Oh.

-Well done, Eimear.

-Very good.

Nice work, Orla's team. There is only one more round to play

before we add those challenge points to your total.

-We like to keep you guessing. Well done.

-Well done.

CHEERING

OK, welcome back, Lili's team.

This is the Music Round. All you have to do is pick a well-known tune

and play it on the kazoo.

Lucy, you have to listen to what Paul's playing

and then play it for Rachel and so on and so on down the line.

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

Perfect playing means perfect points.

Could everybody except Paul put their headphones on

so you don't know which song is being selected. Thank you.

OK, Copycats are ready.

Let's close the doors!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Paul, I have three cards in my hand.

I've got a yellow, a blue and a pink one. Which one would you like?

-I'll go for blue.

-OK, have a look.

Thank you.

Any idea what that is?

-It's fine...

-No, I...

-You'll soon know. We're going to play it

into the studio. Classic tune.

MUSIC: "Rule The World" by Take That

# Yeah, you and me

# We can ride on a star

# If you stay with me, girl

# We can rule the world... #

-All right. Got it in your head, Paul?

-Yup, think so.

Good luck to you, mate. OK.

Ready, steady, play! Open the door.

PLAYS UNRECOGNISABLE TUNE

OK.

PLAYS DIFFERENT TUNE

OK.

PLAYS DIFFERENT TUNE

Amazing.

REPEATS PREVIOUS TUNE

-IN SAME TUNE:

-# Da-da-da-da-da-da! #

Awesome! Go on, Rob.

REPEATS PREVIOUS TUNE

GIGGLING

Stop playing. Please!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Please stop playing!

Extraordinary. OK.

For the maximum of 50 points, Lili, any idea what Rob was playing?

Here Come The Girls?

Here Come The Girls - great song,

but it's not what we're looking for. See, the door has already opened!

For 40 points, Rob, what do you think the answer is?

When The Saints Go Marching In.

It is not When The Saints Go Marching In.

Let's open the door. For 30 points, Bethany, come on!

-It sounded a bit like Jingle Bells.

-It's not, I'm afraid.

OK. Let's open the door. Rachel.

Erm...

Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep. No idea.

I thought you knew it!

But you don't, Rachel. Let's open the door.

Finally, for ten points?

-A Mad World...by somebody?

-A Mad World? Unfortunately...

It has got "world" in the title, though.

What is it, Paul?

-We Can Rule The World.

-By Take That. Let's have a listen.

# If you stay with me, girl

# We can rule the world... #

Unfortunately, that does mean, Lili,

you get no points. Give them a round of applause.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Katie, how is your kazoo playing?

-Oh, terrible!

-Oh, no!

Really? Oh, this should be fun, then(!) All right.

-Pick a card, yellow or pink.

-Yellow.

-The yellow one. Take a look.

-Do you know that song?

-Uh-huh.

-You do?

-Uh-huh...

You don't sound confident! Don't worry,

we'll play it in the studio. Let's hear it.

MUSIC: "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen

# Scaramouch, Scaramouch

# Will you do the fandango?

# Thunderbolt and lightning

# Very, very frightening, me

-# Galileo

-Galileo

# Galileo

# Galileo, Galileo, Figaro... #

Great song. The best of luck, you've got ten seconds.

Ready, steady, play!

PLAYS TUNE CORRECTLY

Very good! Rose was nodding. Go, Rose.

PLAYS DIFFERENT TUNE

Yup, see what you're doing there.

PLAYS DIFFERENT TUNE

GIGGLING

Hmm.

REPEATS PREVIOUS TUNE

GIGGLING

Tommy, your turn.

REPEATS PREVIOUS TUNE

Time's up! OK.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

That's a lovely tune that was being played there. Orla, for 50 points,

-what's the answer we are looking for?

-Bad Boys?

-Bad Boys?

It's not, which means we're playing for 40 points.

-What do you think the answer is?

-I'm not too sure. Erm...

-Thriller?

-It's not Thriller. Great song, but that's not the answer.

-We're playing for 30 points. Any idea?

-Fight For This Love?

Good songs you're knocking out, but,

sadly, again, not the right answer. Playing for 20 points.

-Debbie, what do you think?

-Is it Poker Face?

-It's not Poker Face.

Rose, you were nodding along. I think you know the answer.

-Tell us.

-Is it Bohemian Rhapsody?

-It is Bohemian Rhapsody!

Let's hear it. CHEERING

# Very, very frightening, me Galileo... #

Excellent work. You get yourself ten points!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

'Right, so after three rounds,

'Orla's team have 60 points,

'and Lili's team also have 60 points!'

Wow, it's very, very exciting. Both teams are tied on 60 points,

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

Which team beat the bounce and have a golden ticket to the Ball Room?

-Sam, over to you.

-Thanks, the wait is over.

-I can reveal that one team got 80 points.

-Ooh, good score.

-Good score.

I can also reveal that one team got 90 points in the bounce!

-Oho!

-Which mean the team going through to the Copycats Ball Room

-and playing for the trophy is...

-I can't cope with this.

..Lili's team!

CHEERING

Commiserations to Orla's team.

-Sorry, guys.

-Unlucky.

-This means we have to say goodbye to you.

Have you had a good time? Awesome. ALL: Yeah!

-You've been fantastic.

-Round of applause for Orla's team!

CHEERING

OK, you've made it this far and it's time to compete for the fabulous

money-can't-buy limited edition lovely shiny thing that is this -

the trophy! Let me hear you go, "Woo!"

-ALL: Oooh!

-Let me hear you go, "Woo-ey!"

-Not that.

-All right, sorry. OK, guys.

Here is the Ball Room. Lili, who have you chosen to play

-the Ball Room?

-If I ever went into a room of flying balls,

-the person I'd take with me would have to be Bethany.

-OK.

BOTH: Good to know.

And I took my dad cos he's really good at catching cricket balls.

Good! He's pretty tall as well.

I decided to go in

because I'd just love my hair to go wild and it's fantastic!

-BOTH: Yeah!

-It's going to go wild.

Before we open the doors, let's take a look

-at what you need to do to win. What you doing?

-Big hair.

-Oh.

'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.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right. If you're ready, in three, two, one.

BOTH: Blast the balls!

'So, let's see if Lili's hair really does go wild in the Ball Room.

'Left to right, it's Bethany catching the blue balls,

'Rob, the yellow ones, and Lili, the red balls.

'They must catch them whilst they're in the air,

'you can't pick them up from the floor.

'Quickly as you can

'Rob is doing well with the yellow ones.

'How are we doing with the others? Come on, girls.

'Quickly as you can.

'Time very quickly runs out if you're not careful.

'Yes!

'Catching the wrong colour!

'Never mind. We don't need the green ones.

'It's not easy, this. It's not easy. Rob's doing very well.

'Brilliant.

'He's almost there. He can then help Bethany and Lili, of course.

'He can do it now.

'So catch the other colours. Come on, Rob.

'Come on, we're running out of time!

'Quickly as you can!

'More balls into those scoring cylinders, please!'

KLAXON

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

You did so well. Let's have a look. You didn't quite get all the balls

in the pipe things.

So that means you don't get the Copycats trophy.

But you do get a Copycats T-shirt.

-Have you enjoyed yourselves?

-ALL: Yes!

Fantastic.

-I can't believe this but it's only end of t'show, isn't it?

-No!

It's coming back, though. Don't you worry about that.

Definitely. We'll see you next time.

BOTH: Bye!
