Episode 22 Copycats

Welcome to Copycats, with your hosts Sam and Mark!

And today's Copycats are...

Amalia's team from Sussex,

and Chris's team from Glasgow!

APPLAUSE

CHEERING

-Hello!

-Hello, welcome to Copycats,

the game show where copying is good.

Look what I've found - it's a love letter! I found it in the corridor!

Ooh! Is there any juicy gossip in it?

Is there? Listen to this. "Dear Justin Bieber,

"I am so in love with you,

"I listen to your music every night before I go to sleep.

"I also carry a framed picture of you in my handbag!"

Ha-ha! I can't believe they love Justin Bieber. That's so sad.

So sad? Really?

Funny you should say that, because it's signed "Mark from Sam and Mark."

-What?

-Handbag? Really?!

-Give me that. Shall we meet today's teams?

Yeah.

APPLAUSE

Amalia, team captain, plant it right there.

-How are you doing?

-I'm ready and excited.

-Good!

-Team, are you all excited?

-Yes.

Before we go further, we're going to get to know you a bit better.

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

This is the reason you guys are on Copycats.

"Oh, no, this is going to be so embarrassing. Don't show me it!"

I want to be on Copycats so I can be the coolest mum.

LAUGHTER

# Just a small town girl Living in a lonely world... #

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Amalia, you can sing!

That is awesome. It's Amalia's team, everybody!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Over here we've got Chris's team.

Yes! Awesome. Are you feeling excited about your audition tape?

-No!

-Yes!

-Fortunately,

we are going to see it. Let's take a look.

Wooooo!

I went to school with different shoes.

I just want to be on telly.

I was in a school choir that sang with Abba and Barry Manilow

in 1978!

I just love watching Copycats.

I just want us all to do very well and have fun.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Brilliant. Give it up for Chris's team, everyone. Fantastic.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

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

As with every game of Copycats, 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 face the challenge,

and the chance to win the ultimate money-can't-buy prize -

the Copycats trophy!

AUDIENCE: Oooh!

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

Let's play Copycats!

APPLAUSE

OK, Amalia's team, I hope you've been brushing up

on your artistic skills, because it's time to play Quick On The Draw.

Trevor, I've got three cards, pick one of them.

You will then have ten seconds to draw whatever is on that card

to the person next to you, and so on down the line.

There's a maximum of 50 points to be won, but as you pass it back down,

-you'll lose ten points for every incorrect answer. Ready?

-Yes!

Awesome. Let's close the doors!

OK, three cards - yellow, pink or blue.

-Go for yellow.

-Take a look.

-Reckon you can draw that?

-I reckon I can.

Nice one. Pick up your pen.

You've got ten seconds, best of luck.

Ready, steady, draw!

OK, Amalia, your turn.

OK, Amanda, go for it!

She doesn't know what it is. Just draw what you saw.

Beth, your turn.

LAUGHTER

John, go for it, mate.

Time's up, stop drawing! Wow.

Bradley, for a maximum of 50 points, what do you reckon the answer is?

-Snowman?

-Nice thinking. It does look like a snowman,

but that's not the answer we're looking for.

-For 40 points, John?

-An owl.

An owl! Again, nice thinking, but it's not the answer.

30 points - Beth.

Is it some sort of fish?

It's not some sort of fish,

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

-Jacket potato?

-It's not.

So for the minimum of ten points, Amalia, what do you reckon?

-Um, a whirlpool?

-A whirlpool! It's not.

-Trevor, do you want to tell everybody?

-An island!

AUDIENCE: Ahhh!

Yours is very good, Amalia.

Sadly, at the end of Quick On The Draw you don't get any points,

but give them a round of applause anyway.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, pink or blue, which one?

Blue. Have a look at that.

You all right?

Intense - I like that! Intensity.

All right, the best of luck to you.

Ready, steady, draw!

Interesting, interesting.

OK!

Oh, this is amazing.

-Please stop drawing!

-APPLAUSE

-Laura, what's the answer we're looking for?

-A monster?

It is! But we're not looking for that as an answer, I'm afraid.

Let's open the door. What's John drawn there?

Is it a jet engine?

Er, it's not a jet engine. Let's open the door. For 30 points.

Is it Superman?

It's a good guess, but no, unfortunately.

OK, what are we looking for, Jackie?

For 20 points.

-Dinosaur?

-It's a better guess.

But it's not the right answer. Let's open the door.

Is it a crocodile?

Hallelujah!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Chris, you did excellently well. You get yourselves off the mark,

with ten points! Well done.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

So, after Quick On The Draw, have Amalia's team

been stranded on a desert island?

And have Chris's team been spared the crocodile tears?

Let's look at the scores. What could they be?

Well, after Quick On The Draw,

Amalia's team have no points,

and Chris's team have ten points!

Nice and close, I like that. OK, the next round tests our teams' skills,

nerve and determination. Yes, the game just got serious,

because this is the Copycats Challenge.

Amalia's team won the toss before, so they go first.

Chris's team, so you don't peek, we're going to send you off.

-Say goodbye to Chris's team!

-Bye, Chris's team!

-Off you go.

APPLAUSE

-They're off.

-Awesome.

Now, Amalia, as team captain, you now need to select

three people to face the fast and furious Copycats Challenge.

But first, let's see what's in store. What could it be?

An image of a coloured tube will be displayed on the screen.

Players must place a ball in the corresponding tube

and catch it as it exits.

Ten points will be awarded for every successful catch.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Best of luck, team. In three, two, one, let's roll!

First off, it's red, and Amanda to have a go.

In at one end, catch it at the other. Oh!

If you're fast enough.

Beth trying to catch one at the end of the blue tube.

Ohh! And John next.

Black.

Quite a steep incline. There we are! Brilliant.

Amanda.

Yellow. In at one end, catch it at the other.

Ohh! That was so close!

Beth. The white tube.

In that end...

Out at the other. Careful not to touch the tube as you do this.

John, green one.

Yes, well done.

Amanda.

White. In that end. Catch it at the other if you can!

Oh!

Black one for Beth.

In there, race round. Oh!

That was great. Wow! Brilliant!

Well done, guys. We'll add those challenge points to your total

after the music round.

Chris'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. Round of applause!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Chris's team. Welcome to Mime Time.

Chris, you'll pick a card and have ten seconds to mime

whatever is on that card for Jaki, and so on down the line.

We are looking for silent performances.

There's a maximum 50 points up for grabs.

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

so the mime reaches the end. Copycats, are you ready?

ALL: Yes!

You certainly LOOK ready. OK, let's close the doors.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Chris, I've got three cards.

Pinky-pink, bluey-blue or yellowy-gold?

-Yellowy-gold.

-Yellowy-gold. OK. Look at that.

OK, mate? Right, best of luck to you.

Ready, steady, mime.

OK, Jaki.

OK, John.

Remember, silent performances, guys.

OK, Laura, your turn.

-OK, stop miming.

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Kathleen, any idea of the answer we're looking for?

Weightlifting?

You're absolutely right!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Awesome! Loving it!

that means Chris's team get the maximum 50 points.

Well done!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, we've got two cards left. Pick or blue?

-I'll pick blue, please.

-Blue. Take a look.

-OK, yeah.

Time's up. Stop miming. Good. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Trevor, for a maximum 50 points, what do you think the answer is?

-Gelling his hair.

-It's not gelling his hair.

We're playing for 40 points. Bradley, what do you reckon?

-Combing his hair?

-It's not combing his hair.

We're playing for 30 points. John, what do you reckon?

-Getting ready to go out?

-SAM LAUGHS

Ah, bless ya!

That's not the answer.

We're playing for 20 points. Beth?

-Styling her hair?

-You're so close but we have to be more specific.

-For 10 points. Amanda, you know this.

-Yeah.

-Blow-drying your hair.

-Yeah! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well done, guys. You get yourselves 10 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

So, after Mime Time, are Chris's team pumping iron on Muscle Beach?

-8kg tops, feel the burn!

-Oh, yeah!

-You like that?

-Feel it!

-Huh!

Are Amalia's team off for a cut and colour?

Going anywhere nice on your holidays?

-Tenerife.

-BOTH: Ooh!

Time to find out the scores. Mr D, what could they be?

After Mime Time, Amalia's team have 10 points

and Chris's team have 60 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, it's time to get serious once again.

Chris's team are to face the Copycats Challenge.

Earlier, Amalia's team scored some important points in their challenge.

Was it enough? Time will tell.

Chris, it's your chance to add some crucial points to your score.

Are you ready?

-LAUGHTER

-We'll do our best.

-Mm, yeah.

-I'm weighing the options up.

Excellent. Amalia's team, it's time for you to leave but you'll be back.

Go and listen to some Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers.

Ask your dads. See you later!

-Bye!

-Bye!

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

The challenge results will be revealed after the music round,

when the extra points may determine which team goes to the Ball Room.

-Come on, calm down.

-OK.

Chris, as team captain, it is now your chance to select three people

to face the Copycats challenge.

Before that, have a look what's in store for you.

Mr D, what could it be?

The tubes. As before,

an image of a coloured tube'll be displayed on the screen.

Players place a ball in the corresponding tube

and catch it as it exits.

Ten points will be awarded for every successful catch.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, in three, two, one, let's roll.

-Off we go.

-First one is a red one.

Chris, the red tube.

In at the top. Round to the other side and catch if you can.

Next it's John with the blue.

Got to be fast. Oh!

Black one. Black one.

Kathleen. Come on, now.

We need to score.

In at one end, catch it at the other. Got to be fast.

-Out of the way, John!

-Grab a ball.

Chris.

Oh, it's come out the other end. No, it's not even gone in!

John with a white.

In at the top end, race round to the other end.

Got to be really fast with the white.

Kathleen, come on.

In at that end, race to the other. Catch! Yes! You have, brilliant!

Chris with the white.

Oh! Fast as you can.

You've got a black one.

Come on, John.

Very steep angle, this. You've got to be fast.

Oh! Kathleen with the green.

Yep, she's done it again. Well done, Kathleen.

Chris with a yellow.

-HE LAUGHS

-Oh, dropped it!

Red, red, red, red!

-John.

-Other way.

In at the one end. Careful not to touch the tube.

There we are. Next.

Kathleen. Haven't got long now.

Careful not to touch the tube.

Catch it at the other end if you can.

Chris with a black.

He's got the right idea. Got to really race round.

On the blue, John, come on!

Come on! Seconds away.

Ooh, we can't count that - John touched the tube!

-OK, stop!

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

That was so fast-paced!

I was shattered watching it!

Only one more round to play before we add those points to your total

cos we like to keep you guys guessing.

-Round of applause.

-CHEERING

Welcome to the Music Round, Amalia's team. Now, Amanda,

it's very simple. All you have to do is pick a well-known tune,

then recreate that tune, using the Copycats kazoo.

Beth, you need to listen to what Amanda plays very carefully.

You'll be the one passing it down the line. As usual, 50 points to win.

Can everyone, except Amanda, put your headphones on -

so you don't hear which song is selected.

OK, our Copycats are ready, let's close the doors.

CHEERING

-We've got three tunes, pink, blue or yellow.

-Pink, please.

-Take a look.

Do you know that? Let's look... Me neither.

Best of luck. We will play it,

so you can get it in your head and recreate it. Let's hear it.

MUSIC: "Harry Potter" Theme

-The best of luck!

-I need it!

Ready, steady, play.

SHE PLAYS HIGH-PITCHED NOTES

OK, Beth, your turn.

SHE PLAYS A FASTER VERSION

OK, John, your turn.

HE COPIES PREVIOUS TUNE

All right, Bradley, your turn.

HE PLAYS SAME TUNE

Trevor, your turn.

PLAYS MUCH LOWER NOTES

LAUGHTER

Time's up. Stop playing.

-Amalia, for 50 points.

-The Simpsons' theme tune?

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

-We Will Rock You.

-LAUGHS: It's not!

So we're playing for 30 points. Bradley.

-You Are Not Alone?

-It's not, sadly. Good song though. Great song!

-We're playing for 20 points, John.

-Fight For This Love.

-Ah!

It's not - which means we're playing for ten points. Beth?

-The Harry Potter theme tune?

-Waaah!

How did you get that!

SHOUTS AND CHEERS

That is such a difficult one to recreate. Well done!

You get yourself ten points. I don't know how!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Jaki, I've got two cards, a yellowy-gold or bluey-blue,

-which would you like?

-Yellow.

Have a look at that.

-Do you know that song?

-Yes.

We will play it into the studio so you can get the melody in your head.

-OK.

-Let's listen to this classic.

MOUTHS SONG

-MUSIC: "Billie Jean"

-Ooh!

Ow!

Aw, when you said Smooth Criminal,

everybody went ha-aa-aah!

Like that. But unfortunately, you don't get any points.

Give them a round of applause.

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

Right, so after three rounds Amalia's team have 20 points.

And Chris's team have 60 points.

It's a good game. Both teams have played well but we have to reveal

the scores from the Copycats challenge - which team triumphed?

And which team are doing a victory dance in the Copycats Ball Room?

The wait is over. I can reveal that one team got 20 points.

I can also reveal that one team got 70 points.

Which means the team going through

to the Copycats Ball Room and playing for the trophy is...

Amalia's team!

Commiserations to Chris's team. You've been a fantastic team.

-Have you had a good time?

-Yeah, brilliant!

-Fantastic.

-You've been a great team, give it up for Chris's team, everyone.

-Yay!

OK, Amalia's team, congratulations, you've made it this far.

Now it's time to compete for the fabulous, limited edition, lovely,

shiny, springy thing that is this...

-the Copycats trophy.

-ALL: Woooh!

Woo-ooh, yourself!

Here is the Ball Room. Amalia, who have you chosen to take part?

-I've chosen myself, Bradley and Trevor.

-Right.

-Let's look at what you have to do to win this. Don't touch it.

-All right.

The Ball Room.

Players are each assigned a colour.

They must catch 12 of their colour and deposit them in the cylinders

before the time runs out.

-Good luck.

-CHEERING

OK, if you're ready, three, two, one! ALL: Blast the balls!

Off we go then. Bradley is catching the blue balls,

Trevor the yellow, Amalia the red.

Amalia - the team captain. How are we doing?

Plenty of yellow ones going in there by the look of it.

Bradley and Amalia - bit of catching up to do.

Not doing too badly at this stage.

Look at those yellows!

SHOUTING

-Well done, mate.

-Well done, Trevor!

As soon as Trevor is finished, he can help the others.

He's not far off, Trevor.

He knows how to do this. You can't pick up off the floor.

Got to catch them in the air. 15 seconds left, come on!

Trevor's done it, he can help the others now.

We're OK with the reds.

Blue! Come on, blue, blue, blue!

Quickly, guys!

Seconds away - we need another few.

Come on! One more needed.

Come on, come on!

GROANS

Guys, I'm sorry but you didn't get enough blue balls in the time.

Oh! You needed one more!

That means you don't get your hands on the trophy.

-That'll go in the safe.

-But!

You don't go away empty-handed.

-We'll give you all a Copycats T-shirt each.

-Yeah! All right!

Give a round of applause!

Have you had a good day?

-Yes!

-Excellent.

Give it up for Amalia's team!

CHEERING

OK, guys, I've got bad news...

It's the end of the show!

I can't believe it!

ALL: AW!

But see you next time on Copycats!

BOTH: BYE!
