Episode 11 Copycats

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

'Today's Copycats are Caitlin's team from Bangor

'and Murray's team from Perthshire.'

Hello, and welcome to Copycats, the game show where copying is good.

The team with the most points

at the end of the show will get the chance to play

for a new and improved but still boingy Copycats Trophy.

Audience: Whoo!

Mark, have you ever wondered what our trophy is made of?

It keeps me awake at night. Hit me with the stats, brother.

Its 27% Masterchef trophy,

the greatest prize in cookery.

16% mythical creatures,

you know the thing - unicorns, dragons, CBBC's Hacker.

33% marshmallow,

and 23% pure gold.

And, of course, a little bit of me and you,

just for good measure.

I guess that's why we call it the ultimate prize.

Indeed. Shall we meet the chosen few

who are hoping to secure their place in game show history?

-I can't wait.

-Let's do it.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Caitlin's team, are you all right? ALL: Yes.

Excellent. Caitlin, would you introduce the team?

This is Penny, my friend. This is Paula, my mum.

This is Alex, Penny's cousin.

-This is Rebecca, Aimee's sister and this is Aimee, my friend.

-Nice.

Lovely to meet you all. I'm Sam. Nice to meet you all.

-Any budding actors in the team?

-We do drama.

-You do drama? Awesome!

That's what I want in my team. The best of luck today.

Give it up for Caitlin's team, everybody.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Murray, would you like to introduce the rest of your team?

OK, this is Clare, this is Lisa, they're my twin sisters.

This is Ross, a friend of the family.

This is Clare, also a friend of the family.

-This is my mum.

-Fantastic.

You're twin sisters, so you're going to have a telepathic understanding?

LAUGHTER

It's going to be amazing. Murray's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

It looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

The teams will take turns to copy pictures, actions,

and displays of musical genius.

Each team will take it in turns to face the Copycats challenge.

We tossed a coin which told us

Caitlin's team are going to play first. Let's play Copycats.

OK, Caitlin's team.

I hope you've been practising your artistic skills

because it's Quick On The Draw.

Rebecca, I've got three cards.

You'll choose one and have 10 seconds to draw whatever's on the card

to the person next to you and so on. There's a maximum of 50 points.

As we pass it back down the line,

you lose 10 points for an incorrect answer. Copycats, are you ready?

Awesome. Let's close the doors.

-Rebecca, I've got three cards. Purple, green or orange?

-Purple.

-Take a look.

-OK.

-Reckon you can do that?

-I think so.

The best of luck. 10 seconds. Ready, steady, draw.

Not bad. Not bad at all. Paula, 10 seconds.

Put as much detail in as you can.

OK, Caitlin, your turn.

Alex.

OK, Penny.

Time's up. Stop drawing.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Aimee. For a maximum of 50 points, what's the answer we are looking for?

-Is it a pointing finger?

-Interesting.

It's not a pointing finger, which means we are playing for 40 points.

-Penny.

-Is it two Easter eggs?

-It's not two Easter eggs.

Which means we're playing for 30 points.

-Alex.

-Is it like a saucepan?

-With spaghetti in?

-It's not.

OK, we are playing for 20 points. Caitlin.

-Is it a beehive?

-It's not a beehive.

Which means we are playing for the minimum of 10 points.

-Paula, any idea? Good drawing.

-A frying pan?

-It's not.

Do you want to tell everybody, Rebecca?

-It was a sieve.

-A sieve!

Unfortunately, that means at the end of Quick on the Draw,

you don't get any points. Give them a round of applause.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Lisa. I've got two cards left, orange or green.

-Which would you like?

-Green.

Yes? You've got that? The best of luck, Lisa.

Ready, steady, draw. Open the door.

OK.

OK.

OK, Clare. It's good copying.

Go on, Ross. Here you go.

LAUGHTER

Stop drawing.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right, Murray.

For a maximum of 50 points, what is the answer?

Is it an igloo?

It is not an igloo.

That is what Ross has drawn.

Open the door, please.

OK. For 40 points.

Is it a mountain?

It's not a mountain. Let's open the door.

-What's Lorna drawn, there?

-And egg?

It is not an egg.

-For 20 points, come on.

-A whale?

It is not a whale.

-OK, this is where I'm confident.

-Is it a mouse...

for a computer?

Yes!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

That means you get 10 points. Congratulations. Well done.

So after Quick On The Draw,

were there holes in Caitlin's team performance?

Have Murray's team clicked their way to victory

or are they having a technical breakdown?

Let's have a look at the scores.

Mr D, what could they be?

'After Quick On The Draw, Caitlin's team have no points

'and Murray's team have 10 points.'

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

The game just got serious, because this is the Copycat Challenge.

Because my team won the toss, they will go first.

My team, so you don't get a peek of the challenge,

we will send you away.

Say goodbye to Murray's team, everyone.

Get the CD player on. Chill out.

Caitlin, as team captain,

you must select three people to face the Copycats challenge.

Before you do that, let's see what's in store for you. Mr D, over to you.

'The Tubes. A coloured tube will be displayed on the screen.

'Players must place the ball in the tube and catch it as it exits.

'10 points are awarded for a successful catch.

'If a player catches a ball from the golden tube,

'they'll score the maximum 150 points and the challenge will end.'

Three, two, one. Let's roll.

'We're off and running.

'This time it's Caitlin to start and it's the red tube.

'She puts the ball in, races round and doesn't quite make it.

'OK. Don't worry about that.

'Aimee. Go for the white one, if you would.

'You've dropped it, move on.

'Come on, guys.

'Alex is next, going for the green tube.

'Not quite there in time.

'Caitlin's second go. This time it's the blue tube and she drops it.

'Never mind. Next, Aimee.

'Blue again. Here we go.

'It is fast. Never mind. Alex, go for the black one.

'See how you get on. She races round. Not quite there in time.

'Caitlin, yellow. We've got to score, girls.

'Oh! Never mind. 45 seconds left.

'Come on, Aimee. The red tube. Yes, well done!

'We've broken our duck. Next, Alex. The green tube.

'Very nearly. Caitlin. Go for the white one, if you would.

'Place it in there. Race round to catch it. Not quite.

'Aimee. Black tube.

'Ha-ha! This is very exciting!

'The golden tube has arrived. Here we go.

'It could be game over if she catches this.

'Yellow next for Caitlin.

'Come on, Caitlin. Let's do this. Come on.

'Next it's Aimee. Seconds away with the red tube.

'Put it in at the top. It is quite high, that one.

'Is she going to catch it? Yes, she does! Excellent!'

Come on over.

It's harder than it looks, that!

We'll add those challenge points to your total after the music around.

Murray's team still need to face the Copycats challenge.

The points from these challenges could make all the difference,

because a ticket to the Ball Room is at stake.

Give it up for Caitlin's team, everybody!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Welcome back to the game, Murray's team.

Clare, I've got three cards in my hand.

You pick a card then have 10 seconds to mime what's on that card

for the player next to you, which is Clare. And so on, down the line.

Remember, we are looking for silent performances.

Understand? There's a maximum of 50 points to win.

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

so the mime makes it to the end.

You lose 10 points for every incorrect answer.

Copycats, are you ready? Brilliant.

OK, let's close the doors!

OK, Clare. I've got a green, purple and orange.

Which one would you like?

-Orange.

-Have a look at that.

Yeah? Have you got that? All right. Ready, steady, mime.

Open the door.

OK, Clare.

OK, Murray.

OK, Lisa.

OK, Lorna.

Stop miming!

OK, Ross. Maximum 50 points. What are we looking for?

Is it someone looking through a telescope?

It's not right, I'm afraid. Let's open the door for 40 points.

Somebody working a camera? Television camera?

It's very close, but we can't accept it.

Open the door for 30 points.

Somebody taking a video of something?

You're getting very, very close but we can't accept that answer.

-Murray, you know this. Come on.

-Is it a photographer?

Yes!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Murray, team captain, you see. Stepping up to the plate.

You get 20 points. Give him a round of applause.

Aimee, I've got two cards. Purple or green?

-Purple.

-Purple. Take a look.

Reckon you can do that? OK, the best of luck. You've got 10 seconds.

Ready, steady, mime.

It's good, it's good.

Alex is nodding her head. That's a good sign.

OK. Mind yourself!

Caitlin.

OK. Paula, your turn.

LAUGHTER

Time's up. Stop miming. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Good copying. Good copying down the line.

OK, Rebecca. For a maximum of 50 points, what's the answer?

Were they milking a cow?

Yeah! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Very good. Well done, you get yourselves the full 50 points.

So after Mime Time, are Murray's team posing for the paparazzi?

And are Caitlin's team moo-ving to the Ball Room?

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

'After Mime Time, Caitlin's team have 50 points

'and Murray's team have 30 points.'

Very close.

Murray's team are about to face the Copycats Challenge.

Earlier in the show, Caitlin's team built up those important points

in their challenge, but did they do enough? Only time will tell.

It's your chance to add crucial points to your overall score.

Look at me in my eyeballs. Are you ready?

-Yep.

-I knew he was.

Caitlin's team, go and put your feet up,

get the kettle on, have a cup of tea. See you later. Bye!

The results of the challenge will be revealed at the end of the show

when the extra points scored will determine

which team wins their ticket to the Ball Room. It's very tense.

I can feel it in the waters of my mind.

Murray, as team captain,

you need to select three people to face the challenge,

but before that, you get your first look at what we've got in store.

Mr D, what could it be?

'The Tubes. A coloured tube will be displayed on the screen.

'Players must place a ball in the tube and catch it as it exits.

'10 points are awarded for every successful catch.

'If a player catches a ball from the golden tube,

'they'll score the maximum 150 points and the challenge will end.'

Three, two, one. Let's roll.

'OK, let's see how Murray's team get on.

'10 points for each successful catch, remember.

'It's Murray himself to start with the red one.

'Oh! Very close.

'He raced round there.

'Next, it's Claire and the white.

'Oh, not quite there in time. OK, the other Claire this time.

'This time it's the green tube.

'That was very close. Murray again, now.

'Murray's second go on the blue.

'Oh! Very close. Next it's Claire.

'Come on, Claire. She's on the blue again. Never mind.

'Black one for the other Claire.

'Oh! Very close!

'OK, Murray. Come on!

'Oh! Careful! Careful! Oh, dear.

'Claire next. On the red.

'Oh, no, it's fallen.

'That's it. OK, green for the other Claire.

'Oh, that was very, very close.

'OK, Murray for the white tube. White!

'Not the blue one!

'He got it in the end and it fell. Never mind. On we go.

'This is the golden tube. Come on, Claire. It all hangs on this.

'Oh! Never mind. Yellow for Claire.

'Put it in that end and quickly get round to the other side.

'Never mind.

'OK, red for Murray. Ha-ha!

'Murray's in a hurry!

'Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Well done, Murray.

'We're running out of time. Claire on the green.'

Hey, we got there in the end.

We got there in the end. Well done, anyway.

One round to play

before we add those points to your total

and we can reveal which team

are going to be playing for the Copycats trophy.

Give it up for Murray's team, everyone.

Give me some! Yes!

Welcome back, Caitlin's team. This is the music round.

All you have to do is pick a tune

and recreate it using the world-famous Copycats kazoo.

Could everybody except Penny put your headphones on

so you don't hear which song's selected.

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

OK, Penny. We've got three tunes here. Orange, green or purple?

Purple.

Do you know that song? Awesome.

We're going to play it into the studio so you can hear it.

# When I see your face

# There's not a thing that I would change

# Cos you're amazing

# Just the way you are. #

The best of luck, Penny. You've got 10 seconds. Ready, steady, play.

PENNY PLAYS KAZOO

CAITLIN PLAYS KAZOO

OK, Paula.

PAULA PLAYS KAZOO

Alex.

ALEX PLAYS KAZOO

Aimee!

AIMEE PLAYS KAZOO

Time's up. Stop playing. OK.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Rebecca. For 50 points, any idea of the answer we're looking for?

As The Saints Go Marching In?

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

Oops, I Did It Again by Britney Spears?

It's not, which means we're playing for 30 points.

The Bare Necessities.

It's not, which means we're playing for 20 points. Paula.

Is it Dancing Queen?

It's not Dancing Queen, which means we're playing for 10 points.

-Any idea, Caitlin?

-Is it Just The Way You Are?

Yay!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

# There's not a thing that I would change. #

Very good, guys. 10 points is better than no points.

Give it up for Caitlin's team.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Ross, I've got two cards. Green and orange. Which would you like?

-I'll go for a green.

-Have a look at that.

Yeah, you like that? All right. Let's have a listen.

# All the single ladies

# All the single ladies

# All the single ladies

# Put your hands up

# Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh oh

# Oh-oh-oh-oh. #

# Woah-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh. #

Brilliant. Best of luck, mate.

Ready, steady, play. Open the door.

ROSS PLAYS KAZOO

OK, come on, Claire.

CLAIRE PLAYS KAZOO

Go on, Lisa.

LISA PLAYS KAZOO

-Go on, Murray.

-MURRAY PLAYS KAZOO

OK, stop playing!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-For 50 points?

-Dynamite?

Oh, no. I thought you'd got it, then. Let's open the door.

-Murray?

-All the Single Ladies?

-Yeah!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

MUSIC: "All The Single Ladies" by Beyonce

Come on, Ross. Let's do it again. Yes!

Love that!

Congratulations, guys. You get yourselves 40 points.

Ross, good man. Good man.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

'After three rounds, Caitlin's team have 60 points

'and Murray's team have 70 points.'

OK. Some mixed performances in the Pass It On rounds

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

Which team triumphed over The Tubes?

Which team are doing the cha-cha to the Ball Room?

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

20 points in the challenge.

I can also reveal that one team got 10 points.

AUDIENCE: Whoo!

Which means we have a tie-break situation on our hands.

Here's what's going to happen.

My friend Mark is about to mime something.

Our team captains will have 10 seconds to write down

what they think that mime is.

The team closest to the answer on the card

will go and play for the Copycats trophy.

Do you both understand?

OK. You've got 10 seconds. Ready, steady, mime.

Stop miming. OK. Both write down your answer.

Caitlin, we're going to reveal your answer first.

What have you written? Cutting a hedge/tree.

Murray, what have you gone for?

Making a sandwich! LAUGHTER

I can reveal the answer is...

trimming a hedge, which means Caitlin's team wins!

Congratulations, guys. I've got to say, cracking team.

-Murray, have you had a good time?

-Yeah.

I'll make you that sandwich after the show.

That's a big daddy, there. Give it up for Murray's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Caitlin's team.

You've made it this far and it's time to compete

for the fabulous, limited edition,

lovely, springy thing that is the Copycats trophy.

-It's gold!

-AUDIENCE: Whoo!

Here is the Ball Room.

Caitlin, who have you chosen to take part in the Ball Room?

Me, Penny and Rebecca.

Before we open the doors to the Ball Room,

let's take a look at what you have to do to win this.

Don't touch it.

'The Ball Room.

'Players must collect 25 green balls and deposit them

'in the scoring cylinder before time runs out.

'Any rogue coloured balls collected will be deducted. Good luck.'

OK. In three, two, one, blast the balls!

'Caitlin's team is Penny, Caitlin and Rebecca, from left to right.

'25 green balls, you have to catch. There's one in there already.

'This is good. And in they go.

'25 green balls to win the trophy.

'Come on! Quickly as you can. Hair flying everywhere!

'Come on, fast as you can.

'Encouragement from outside the Ball Room.

'Inside, a lot of action. Cheer them on! Wow! Look at this!

'Look at the action! Lots of balls going into the scoring cylinder.

'Excellent news. Quickly as you can.

'You have now 15 seconds left. Come on, girls.

'It's fast and furious in there.

'And those green balls are going in.

'This is very, very good.

'Will it be enough, though, to win the trophy?

'We shall find out in the next few seconds. Come on!

KLAXON

-Good effort, girls.

-Great effort.

The balls have been counted

and the results have been verified by somebody really important.

You needed 25 green balls to win the trophy.

I can reveal that you collected...

..27 green balls!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Caitlin and your team, that is your trophy.

You have won it. Hold it up in the air.

Yeah!

The sun glistens like a beacon of truth and light.

Brilliant!

Have you enjoyed yourselves? ALL: Yes.

I can't believe it's the end of the show.

At least we ended it on a high, people.

-SOBBING

-It's all right, mate.

Don't worry about it. Come here.

-See you next time on Copycats.

-Bye.
