Episode 15 Copycats

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

'Today's Copycats are Kirsten's team from London

'and Sophie's team from Hampshire.'

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

Why are you looking so smug?

Well, I have only secured some top stars for a celeb game of Copycats.

-Wow.

-Yeah.

You're kidding me, who've we got?

I've only gone and booked Tom Cruise, Cameron Diaz and Elvis,

to name but a few.

Elvis? How did you get in touch with the celebs?

It was easy, they were in the phone book under the title Rent-a-celeb.

You'd think it would be harder.

Rent-a-celeb is a lookalike agency. Elvis is Big Tony from Dunstable.

I never knew Elvis was from Dunstable.

-Unbelievable. Shall we meet the teams?

-Yes.

Here we have Kirsten's team. You all right?

ALL: Yes!

Kirsten, team captain, introduce the rest of the team for us.

This is my sister Mimi and my best friend Olivia.

This is my mum Annette and dad Tony

and this is our fabulous family friend, Roger.

Excellent. We like fabulous people here on Copycats.

It's lovely to have you here.

Are you ready and raring for today's show? ALL: Yeah!

Everybody, please give it up for Kirsten's team.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

A feisty bunch over there.

Over here we have got Sophie's team,

are you up for the challenge?

All: Yeah!

Two can play that game, mister. Sophie, introduce your team.

This is Grace, my best friend, and this is Dan, my cousin,

this is Chloe, my cousin.

That's Nick, my cousin. This is my dad David.

-Fantastic, are we going to win today?

-ALL: Yeah!

All right, feisty, I like it, Sophie's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

It's going to be a good one. It's time for our teams to start copying.

As with every game of Copycats, the teams 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 and a chance to win the Copycats trophy.

AUDIENCE: Wooo!

Yes, indeed.

We tossed a coin which told us that

Sophie's team are going to be playing first.

Sophie's team, I hope you've been brushing up on your artistic skills

because its time to play Quick On The Draw.

I have three cards. You're going to pick one.

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

for the player next to you,

which is Nick, and then so on and so on down the line.

-Understand?

-Yeah.

-Fantastic.

There is a maximum of 50 points to be won,

but as you pass it back down the line, you lose ten points

-for every incorrect answer. Copycats, are you ready?

-ALL: Yes!

Fantastic, in that case, close the doors.

I have three cards - green, orange or purple.

-Which would you like?

-Orange, please.

Orange, have a look at that.

-OK.

-Got that in your head?

-Yeah.

OK, the best of luck, Chloe. Ready, steady, draw. Open the door.

Very good.

Get as much detail in there as you possibly can.

All right, Sophie.

OK, Grace, your turn.

Five seconds left.

OK, David.

OK, stop drawing.

What is the answer I have got on my card? For 50 points, Dan.

Is it cheese?

A great guess, but it's not the answer.

Let's open the door. For 40 points, David?

Is it a cereal box?

It is not a cereal box. Let's open the door. For 30 points, Grace?

-Is it a dice?

-It is not a dice, I'm afraid. Let's open the door.

-For 20 points.

-A box with buttons on.

It is not a box with buttons on.

OK, let's open the door. For ten points, Nick, any idea?

-Is it an oven?

-Yeah!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

It is actually a cooker or hob, but we're not going to be that mean.

We are actually going to give you ten points. Not bad at all.

Give it up for Sophie's team, nice work.

-OK, Roger, pick a card.

-This one.

The green one, take a look.

-Wow.

-Wow, reckon you can draw that?

-I do, yes.

Excellent, you've got ten seconds, best of luck. Ready, steady, draw.

Try and get as much detail as you can.

OK, Mimi, your turn.

OK, Tony, your turn.

Right, Olivia.

Time's up, stop drawing!

Kirsten, what is the answer we are looking for?

-Tower of blocks.

-It's not a tower of blocks,

which means a playing for 40 points.

-Olivia, what do you think?

-The end of like a sweetie wrapper.

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

-Annette, what do you think it is?

-Is it a house?

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

-Tony, what do you reckon?

-Is it piano?

-Yes!

Mimi, you're leaving him hanging!

Nice work. Well done, guys. You get yourself 20 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

After Quick On The Draw, are Sophie's team cooking up a storm?

Have Kirsten's team hit a bum note?

Let's find out scores. Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Sam, after Quick On The Draw, Kirsten's team have 20 points.

'And Sophie's team have ten points.'

-Still early days, people.

-It is.

-Still early days.

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

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

Yes, because my team won the toss, they will go first.

My team, so you don't get a peek of what's in store,

we are going to send you off. Say bye to Kirsten's team, everybody. Bye!

-See you later.

-Bye.

-Nice people.

-Lovely, lovely people.

Sophie, you need to select three people

to face the awesome Copycats Challenge,

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

'The Drop. An image of a coloured rod will be displayed on the screen.

'Players must remove the corresponding rod

'while trying to avoid any of the balls dropping.

'Ten points are awarded for every rod pulled out,

but ten points will be deducted for any ball that falls.'

Best of luck. If you're ready, in three, two, one - pull.

-'Off we go.'

-Red one, red one.

'And it is a red one for Grace.

-'Well done.'

-OK, one.

-'And next, Sophie, looking for yellow rod.

'Oh, yes, gently does it, gently does it. Well done, that's good.'

'Black Rod for Chloe. Very good. Going very quickly here.'

'Yellow one for Grace.

'Oh, careful. Don't worry about that, it's not a problem.

'That's the main thing, you've got that one.

'Next, it's a red rod for Sophie. Gently, gently does it.

'Well done. So, if more balls drop

'when there are rods are pulled out you will score nothing, remember.

'You have to do this very carefully, just like that.

'Well done, Chloe.

'Black rod for Grace. She goes round, chooses one.

'Gently does it, very, very gently.

'Oh, one or two, three have fallen.

'Next it's Sophie. The yellow one.

'Go for the yellow one.

'Now one of those will work, hopefully.

'Very, very gently does it. Yes, well done.

'Go for a black one, Chloe, if you would. Very well done.

'Next, a red one for Grace.

'Got to be very careful from this point on. Oh.

'Easy, easy. Only one that's dropped there. Pull it out gently.

And another. Oh, the balls are dropping.

'Sophie, a yellow one. Do it gently. Oh.'

We'll add those points to your score later.

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

Points from the Challenge make all the difference

because a dream ticket to the Ball Room is at stake.

Give it up for Sophie's team.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Welcome back to the game, Kirsten's team. Let's play Mime Time.

I've got three cards. You need to choose one of these cards.

You have ten seconds to mime what is on the card

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

but remember we are looking for silent performances.

As with all the pass-it-on rounds, 50 points are up for grabs.

You will lose ten points for every wrong answer down the line.

Copycats, are you ready?

ALL: Yes!

In that case, let's close the doors.

Olivia, pick a card. The purple one, take a look.

Reckon you can do that? Yeah? You've got ten seconds.

The best of luck. Ready, steady, mime

Tony, your turn.

OK. Mind your head, Tony. Mimi, your turn.

Annette. Ooh, watch out.

Mind your head, Annette. Kirsten.

Time's up. Stop miming.

OK. Roger, for 50 points, what's the answer we are looking for?

Was it cleaning your shoes?

-It's not cleaning your shoes.

-Oh...

Which means we're playing for 40 points. Kirsten?

-No idea?

-No.

-No, fair enough.

We're playing for 30 points. Annette?

Checking the size of your shoes and whether they fit.

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

Sticking the shoes together and making something.

It's not, unfortunately,

which means we're playing for the minimum of ten points.

-I think that's a pedicure, clipping your toenails.

-Yeah!

Well done.

Well done, guys, you get yourselves ten points!

OK, Dan, I've got two cards left, which one are you going for?

-Green, please.

-Have a look at that.

-OK.

-Have you got that?

All right, best of luck, Dan. Ready, steady, mime. Open the door.

OK, Chloe.

OK, Nick, your turn.

-MOUTHS:

-What's happening.

Sophie, your turn.

Stop miming!

Grace, what's the answer we're looking for?

Was it putting sandwiches into a picnic basket?

It's not, I'm afraid.

OK, let's open the door. For 40 points, Sophie, we're looking for?

-Moving stuff.

-It wasn't moving stuff. Let's open the door.

-For 30 points?

-I thought it might have been pulling weeds.

-Like gardening?

-Yes.

-It's not gardening. Let's open the door.

-It's tricky.

-Dragging something heavy...

No. It's so difficult, this one.

OK, ten points open the door. David?

-Taking the dog for a walk?

-Yes.

Well done, Dan, high five. Better than no points at all.

Give it up for them, ten points. well done!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, so after Mime Time, was that a crim-o-nail performance

from Kirsten's team? Don't boo me! AUDIENCE GROANS

It gets better.

Was that a "ruff" performance from Sophie's team? Told you.

It is time for those all-important scores. Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Mark, after Mime Time, Kirsten's team have 30 points

'and Sophie's team have 20 points.'

It's time to get serious once again, because Kirsten's team

are about to face the Copycats Challenge.

Kirsten, it's your chance to add some crucial points

-to your overall score. Are you ready?

-ALL: Yes!

-Yes!

Sophie's team, it's time for you to go, but you are coming back.

-See you later, Sophie's team.

-Bye!

-Bye!

-Very nice.

-Lovely, lovely people.

Now, Kirsten, as team captain, you.. Tony was waving as well, then!

Bye!

Kirsten, you need to select three people

to face the awesome Copycats Challenge.

Before you do that, let's take a look at what's in store for you.

Mr D, what could it be?

'The Drop. An image of a coloured rod will be displayed on the screen.

'Players must remove the corresponding rod while trying

'to avoid any of the balls dropping.

'Ten points are awarded for every rod pulled out,

'but ten points will be deducted for any ball that falls.'

OK, if you're ready. The best of luck. In three, two, one - pull.

'It's Mimi to start.

'Kirsten's sister, looking for one of the red rods.

'Very good. Excellent.

'Next it's Annette, looking for a yellow rod.

'She successfully pulls that out. This is going well.

'Next it's Roger, family friend.

'Black Rod, well done.

'Back to Mimi this time and it's a yellow rod.

'Pull it out gently so that none of the balls falls.

'Excellent.

'Annette, red you're looking for, one of the red ones.

'That's it, excellent.

'And next it's Roger looking for one of the red rods

'to be removed without any of the balls falling.

'Excellent. Mimi, find us a black rod, if you would, and remove it.

'Oh, yes, well done.

'Next it is Annette looking for one of the yellow rods.

'She is seeking advice, which one, which one?

'Oh, is one of the balls going to fall?

'Two of them have fallen, actually. It isn't too bad. Roger next. Black.

'He's asking for advice.

'Is he going to pull the right one out?

'Got to make sure not too many balls fall. Excellent, well done.

'Mimi, come on, Mimi. You have got 15 seconds left

'and it's a red one you are looking for.

'Oh. A couple have fallen. Do this gently, Mimi, come on.

'Gently does it. Oh, it's coming out.'

Well done. And I can confirm that that last rod did count.

Congratulations.

Only one more round to play before we add those Challenge points

to your total and we can reveal which team will be

playing for the trophy. give it up for Kirsten's team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

You've got to pick a well-known tune,

then recreate that tune to the person next to you playing

the world-famous Copycats kazoo.

Could everybody now, except for Grace, put their headphones on

so you do not hear which song has been selected. Thank you very much.

Our Copycats seem ready, let's close the doors.

Grace, I've got three cards here. Which one would you like?

-Can I have purple, please?

-Of course you can.

Yeah, got that in your head?

We're going to play it so that you can get the melody in your head.

# Now you want to pretend that you're a superstar

# And now you want us to end what's taken you this far

# Don't tell me that you're done as far as we go

# You need to have a sit-down with your ego. #

Cracking song, cracking band.

Best of luck, Grace. Ready, steady, play. Open the door.

OK, Chloe.

John.

-MOUTHS:

-Low.

OK, David.

Right, go on, Dan.

Stop playing!

OK, for 50 points, Sophie, what are we looking for?

Price Tag by Jessie J.

It is not Price Tag. Let's open the door.

-For 40 points, Dan, any idea?

-One Shot by JLS?

It's not, I'm afraid. Let's open the door. For 30 points, David?

It wasn't the music from The Simpsons, was it?

It might have been what he was playing,

but it's not the answer I've got on the card. Let's open the door.

-For 20 points, Nick?

-I'm Glad You Came by The Wanted.

It is not, I'm afraid.

Let's open the door for a minimum of ten points.

Grace did a cracking, cracking job.

-Ace of Base, All That She Wants.

-Retro, I like it.

It is not, unfortunately, Grace, go on tell us.

-It was Ego by The Saturdays.

-Let's have a listen.

# Now you want to pretend you are a superstar. #

Did a brilliant job,

but unfortunately you don't get any points.

Give them a round of applause, please.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Kirsten, pick a tune.

The orange one, take a look.

-Do you know that song?

-No.

We are going to play it into the studio.

Have a listen, get the melody.

# I wanted you bad I'm so through with that

# Cos honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had. #

OK, the best of luck, Kirsten. You've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, play.

OK, Mimi.

Annette, good luck.

Time's up.

If you get this right, this will be amazing.

-What's the answer we're looking for?

-Is it You're Beautiful?

It's not You're Beautiful.

-OK, which means you're playing for 40 points.

-Poker Face?

It's not Poker Face. We're playing for 30 points, Tony?

HUMS A TUNE.

-That's it.

-That's the one, isn't it?

-Yeah.

I Kissed A Girl.

Oh, it's not I Kissed A Girl,

which means we are playing for 20 points, Annette?

# Don't Stop, do-do-do-do-do-do. #

I didn't know there was a song called # Don't Stop Do-do-do-do-do. #

It's not that, which means we are playing for ten points.

It's quite a difficult one.

-Don't Stop Believing.

-It's not Don't Stop Believing.

-Do you want to tell everybody?

-Best Thing I Never Had by Beyonce.

That's it, let's hear it.

# I wanted you bad I'm so doing bad

# Cos honestly you turned out to be... #

Unfortunately, you don't get any points there

but give them a round of applause, anyway.

'Right, so after three rounds Kirsten's team have 30 points

'and Sophie's team have 20 points.'

Well, what a show! Respectable performances from the teams,

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

Which team destroyed The Drop

and which team are going to the Ball Room?

The wait is over.

I can reveal one team got 60 points in the Challenge.

I can also reveal that one team got no points.

Which means the team going through to the Copycats Ball Room

and playing for the trophy is...

..Kirsten's team!

So, I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to Sophie's team.

-Have you had a good time?

-ALL: Yeah.

Give it up for Sophie's team, everybody.

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

for the fabulous, money-can't-buy,

limited edition, lovely, shiny, springy thing that is this.

The Copycats trophy.

AUDIENCE: Woo!

Here is the Ball Room.

Kirsten, who have you chosen to play in the Ball Room?

-Myself, my dad and Olivia.

-Excellent.

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

'The Ball Room. Players must collect 25 green balls

'and deposit them in the scoring cylinder before the time runs out.

'Any rogue coloured balls collected will be deducted from the total.

'Good luck.'

Ready in three, two, one - blast the balls!

'As we look into the Ball Room, left to right, Kirsten, team captain,

'then Olivia, Kirsten's best friend, and Tony, Kirsten's dad.

'They are already going in.

'Only the green ones, remember, 25 green balls.

'Into the scoring cylinder to win the Copycats trophy. Come on, team.

'With all that encouragement, yes, you can do it, you can do this.

'There's Olivia spinning round. Go on, that's it.

'Excellent, plenty going in. Will it be enough, though?

'Come on, Olivia, come on, come on.

'Catch those green balls.

'Come on, Tony. You're looking for the green ones, remember.

'That's it, exactly like that. Ten seconds to go. Quickly as you can.

'Time is running out. It's not as easy as it looks, this.

Come on. Quickly, quickly.'

KLAXON SOUNDS

Not too bad. I can confirm that we can count those last two balls,

they went in just as the klaxon went.

The balls have been checked and verified.

You needed 25 green balls to win the trophy.

I can reveal that you collected...

..25 green balls.

That's your trophy. Hold it aloft. Hurray.

-Nice work.

-Brilliant.

-Have you enjoyed yourselves?

-ALL: Yeah.

Brilliant, right on the money. 25. Love that.

Great show, can't believe it's over.

It's over, don't you know?

-We'll be back, see you next time on Copycats. Bye!

-Bye!
