Episode 21 Copycats

Welcome to Copycats with your hosts, Sam and Mark.

And today's copycats are:

Harry's team from Sheffield

and Nareece's team from Bangor.

Hello and welcome to Copycats, the gameshow where copying is good,

whether it's throwing, miming or playing the kazoo.

The better you are at copying, the more points you're going to get!

Yes, the team with the most points at the end of the show will

get the chance to play for the new and improved but still bingy-boingy, copycats Trophy.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Oh, yeah. Shall we get cracking and meet the teams?

-Oh, please.

-Let's do it.

OK, Nareece, you're the team captain, aren't you? Feeling good?

Yeah, really confident.

Yeah! Are you going to introduce us to the rest of the team, please?

OK, so I'm Nareece, the team leader.

This is my little sister Alice and my best friend Chantelle.

Behind me I've got Willie, a family friend, my mum, Dawn,

and my Aunty Davina.

-Right, this is a good team.

-ALL: Yes.

-I can see the fire in the eyes.

All right, well, the best of luck. It's Nareece's team, everyone.

APPLAUSE

-OK, Harry's team. Where are you guys from?

-Sheffield!

All right, all right.

I'm from South Yorkshire, by the way, if you didn't get that at the home.

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

Yes, I would. This is my brother, Alfie.

This is my mum, Clare. This is a family friend, Jack.

This is my uncle, Richard, and this is my best friend, Seamus.

OK, nice to meet you.

Are you already for it? ALL: Yeah! Come on.

Best of luck for today. Give it up for Harry's team, everybody.

APPLAUSE

-Feisty!

-Feisty indeed.

-Feisty.

It looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

As with every game of copycats, the teams will take it in turn

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 and Harry's team

are going to be playing first.

Let's play Copycats.

OK, Harry's team.

I hope you've been brushing up on your artistic skills

because it's time to play Quick On The Draw. Here's how it works.

Richard, I've got three cards. You're going to pick one.

You'll have 10 seconds to draw whatever is on that card

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

There's a maximum of 50 points to be won in this round but as we pass

it back down the line, you lose 10 points for every incorrect answer.

Copycats, are you ready? ALL: Yes.

In that case, let's close the doors.

OK, Richard, mate, three cards. You've got green, orange or purple.

-The orange one.

-Are you happy with that, Richard?

-Happy with that.

-OK, best of luck.

Ready, steady, draw!

Nice. Harry, your turn.

OK, lovely. Clare, your turn.

Alfie, go for it, mate.

OK, Jack, mate. Your turn.

Time is up, stop drawing!

Oh, dear. Oh, dear. Seamus, good luck, mate.

-For 50 points, any idea what Jack was drawing there?

-Is that a boat?

It does look like a boat but that's not the answer we're looking for.

OK, we're looking for 40 points. Jack, any idea?

A banana split.

-It's not a banana split.

-That's a shame.

-We're paying for 30 points.

-Alfie, any idea?

-Is it a necklace?

-I see where you're going.

It's not a necklace, though. We're playing for 20 points. Open the door.

-Clare, what do you reckon Harry has drawn?

-I think it's a canoe.

It's not a canoe which means we're playing for a minimum of 10 points.

-Harry, any idea?

-Banana car.

-It's not. Richard?

-This is a skateboard.

It's a skateboard that quickly turned into a banana.

I'll tell you something, unfortunately,

you didn't get any points but it was very entertaining.

Round of applause, everybody.

APPLAUSE

Chantelle, you've got two cards here, a purple one and a green one.

-Which one would you like?

-The purple, please.

Purple, have a look at that.

-You've got that in your head?

-I have, yeah.

The best of luck, Chantelle. OK, ready, steady, draw. Open the door.

Not bad, OK, Willie. 10 seconds, mate.

Oh, OK, 10 seconds.

Open the door. Oh, deary me.

Brilliant.

Stop drawing, please!

APPLAUSE

-Excellent. For a maximum of 50 points.

-Dinosaur footprint?

Very good guess. It's not, I'm afraid. Open the door.

-Nareece, what on earth has Davina drawn?

-A cactus?

Good guess but it's wrong, I'm afraid. OK, let's open the door.

-For 30 points?

-A ghost.

-It's not, let's open the door for 20 points.

-Alex?

-A finger?

-It's a good guess, actually. It's not, I'm afraid, OK.

Let's open the door. Finally, for 10 points, what are you going for?

-Is it a gravestone?

-It isn't unfortunately. What is it?

-A baby's bottle.

-Of course it is. Look, the detail and everything.

Unfortunately, you get yourselves no points but give them

a round of applause. That was awesome.

All right, after Quick On The Draw,

are Harry's team a banana car short of a picnic?

And have Nareece's team already bottled it?

Let's look at the scores. Mr D, what could they be?

Well, Mark, after Quick On The Draw,

Harry's team have no points

and Nareece's team

also have no points.

-Close.

-Really close.

OK, the next round will test our teams' skill,

nerve and determination. Yes, the game just got serious

because this is the Copycats Challenge.

Because my team won the toss, they'll go first.

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

we're going to send you away to listen to some German house music.

-We'll see you later.

-Enjoy yourself, bye.

-Bye.

Love a bit of German house.

You've got to listen to it. Now, Harry, as team captain,

you need to select three people

to face the daunting Copycats Challenge

but before you do that, let's see what's in store for you.

-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 the ball from the golden tube,

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

-In three, two, one. Let's roll.

-Here we go.

10 points for every successful catch. It's a blue tube for Harry.

The team leader, getting us under way. Will he catch it?

No, not quite! Next, for Alfie, the yellow tube. It's a fast one.

Jack is next. And it's a white tube. Come on, Jack. Do your best.

Yes, he's got it, well done!

Next, Alfie. Black tube. Quickly, quickly, yes.

Looks very fast.

Next, it's Harry. The red tube. In it goes.

Will he catch it successfully? Yes is the answer.

Next it's... Come on, what are you doing? One of you, please!

Jack! The green tube. And he's caught it, brilliant.

Well worth the muddle in the end. Next it's white. Alfie, well done.

We're racking these up now, this is excellent news.

Next, it's Harry, the green tube.

Yes, and another! Alfie, the yellow. Quickly, don't drop it.

Oh! Never mind. It's the golden tube, here we go.

Could be game over if you get this.

Jack, come on! In at that end and catch it this end.

Oh, no! We carry on.

Blue one for Alfie.

Come on, Alfie. Lost it now. Time is running out, 15 seconds.

Harry. Come on, Harry!

Exactly! Black tube.

Oh, come on, what's happened?

Quickly as you can. Blue, Alfie, come on. Round to the other end.

You've got a few seconds. Yes! Time's up!

Remember, we'll add those challenge points to your total after the music round.

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

The points from these challenges could make all the difference

because the dream ticket the ball room is at stake.

Give it up for Harry's team, everybody!

APPLAUSE

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

Now, I've got three cards in my hand. You're going to pick one of these cards.

You're then going to have 10 seconds to mime whatever's on that card

to the player next to you, which is Chantelle and then so on, down the line.

There's a maximum of 50 points to be won so if you think you know the answer,

try and add a bit more detail to help the mime make it to the end.

As with every pass-it-on game, you lose 10 points for every incorrect answer.

-Copycats, I know you are, but I'm going to ask you anyway. Are you ready?

-ALL: Yes!

Great! Close the doors.

Purple, orange or green. Which one would you like?

Oh, I was going to pick orange to go with Chantelle's hair

but I see green.

-OK. To go with your top, a lovely top it is too.

-Matching.

-You've got that.

-Mm-hm.

-All right. Looking confident, I like that.

The best of luck. Ready, steady, mime! Open the door.

Excellent miming.

Good.

Not bad.

It's very good copying, guys.

Look at them moves, stop miming. All right!

-APPLAUSE

-Them moves!

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

-Dancing.

-That's unfortunately the wrong answer.

Let's open the doors for 40 points.

-Ribbon gymnastics?

-It's not the right answer, I'm afraid.

OK, let's open the door. For 30 points, come on, you know this.

-Is it baton twirling?

-That's exactly what it is!

CHEERING

Get in there! Nareece's team, you get yourselves 30 points, well done.

Well done.

OK, Jack, we've got orange and purple left.

-Orange, for the Orange team.

-Yes, nice, take a look, mate.

-OK.

-Happy with that?

-OK.

Well, best of luck. You've got 10 seconds.

Ready, steady, mime.

Good, Alfie, your turn.

OK. Richard.

SAM CHUCKLES

Seamus is nodding his head. That's a good sign. Your turn, Seamus.

OK. Clare.

OK. Time is up. Stop miming!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK. Harry, you were nodding your head there.

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

-Playing a cello?

-Ooh!

She was playing a cello, but that's not the answer we're looking for.

Very close. Open the doors. We're playing for 40 points. Clare?

-Playing the violin.

-Playing the violin!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well done. You get yourselves 40 points.

So, after Mime Time, are Nareece's team marching into the lead?

And are Harry's team saying "cello" to The Ball Room?

Let's find out the scores. Mr D, over to thee.

Well, Sam, after Mime Time,

Harry's team have 40 points

and Nareece's team have 30 points.

OK, it's time to get serious

because Nareece's team are about to face the Copycats Challenge. Earlier,

Harry's team built up a pile of points in their challenge,

-but did they do enough? Only time will tell.

-You're right.

Now, Nareece, it's your chance to attempt to add some crucial points

-to your overall score.

-Are you ready?

-Yes!

-Good. They look ready.

OK, Harry's team, we're going to say goodbye to you.

-Go and put your feet up, will you? Have a rest. See you later!

-Bye!

-Good guys. The best!

-One of the good ones.

-The best guys, them. The best.

-Well, we'll see.

-The result of this challenge

will be revealed at the end of the show,

when the extra points scored here will determine which team

-wins their tickets to the ballroom. It's so tense!

-I can feel it!

Now, Nareece, 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 for you.

Mr D, what could it be?

The Tubes. As before, a coloured tube will be displayed on screen.

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

Ten points are awarded for every catch.

If a player catches the ball from the golden tube, they'll score

a maximum 150 points and the challenge will end.

In three, two, one. Let's roll!

We're off! And what's going to be?

It's a blue tube for Alex to get us under way.

In at that end, race round to the other side.

Have to be quicker than that, Alex. Never mind. Next,

a yellow for Willie. Come on, Willie. You can do this. Well done!

Next, a white tube for Nareece. Quickly as you can, Nareece.

It goes in at that end. Catch it at that end. Slipped a bit there.

A black tube for Alex. She puts it in that end.

Got to catch it at the other end. Getting quicker.

Willie, red one, please. Red tube. He's found it.

Put it in there. Catch it at the other end. Yes! Excellent.

'Now, Nareece. The green.

Oh, she's dropped it. Oh, it won't count but a bit of practice there.

Well done. Next, white tube for Alex. She races round.

She's enjoying this. Oh! Very nearly. Next, it's Willie.

Green one. Put it in that end and catch it at the other.

Oh, no, you touched the end of the tube there. That will not count.

Next, it's Nareece. Yellow. Yes, well done. That counts.

Oh, it's the golden tube. This is great. Here we go.

Could be game over if she catches this. Oh, not quite.

Never mind, Alex. Willie, on the blue tube.

It goes in that end. Catch it at the other. You can do this.

Oh, no. What's happened? Come on. Nareece.

The black tube. Puts it in that end.

Race round to the other. Ten seconds to go. Here we go.

It's blue for Alex. Come on, Alex. You can do this.

Oh, you've dropped it. Never mind. That won't count.

Oh, stop the clock!

There's only one more round to play

before we add those points to the total and reveal

the team who are going to play for the Copycats trophy.

Give it up for Nareece's team, everyone!

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Well done!

I'm shattered just watching you.

Welcome back, Harry's team. This is The Music Round.

Pick a well-known tune and recreate it to the person next to you,

using the famous Copycats kazoo.

Everyone except Clare,

put your headphones on so you don't hear which song is being selected.

OK. Our copycats look ready. Let's close the doors.

Clare, here we go. Let's hope you know one of these tunes.

-We got orange, green or purple.

-I'll have purple, please.

Purple? Take a look.

Do you know that tune?

-Yes.

-OK. We'll play it so you can get the melody in your head.

Let's hear it.

# Can't read my Can't read my

# No, he can't read my poker face

# She's got to love nobody. #

OK, got that in your head? Best of luck, Clare. You've got ten seconds.

Ready, steady, play.

SHE COPIES THE MELODY

Very good playing. Harry.

Very good. Seamus, your turn.

Good copying. Alfie.

HE PLAYS A SIMILAR MELODY

OK, Jack.

HE PLAYS A DIFFERENT MELODY

Time's up!

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

Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band?

What a tune. It's not, unfortunately. Jack, any idea?

Er, no, so Bohemian Rhapsody?

Another good song, but it's not. OK, we're playing for 30 points.

-Life Is A Rollercoaster?

-Oh, by Ronan Keating? That is a tune!

That is a tune. I like that. It's not, unfortunately.

We're playing for 20 points. Seamus, I know you know this.

-Tell me it.

-Was he playing Poker Face?

-He was!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

# Can't read my poker face... #

Sounds a little bit like... # Life is a rollercoaster. #

Not really! Er, well done, guys.

You get yourselves 20 points. Not bad at all.

OK, Nareece, I've got two cards left.

-I've got green or orange. Which one would you like?

-Green.

-You're going for green.

-OK.

-Do you know that?

-No.

-Well, it's OK

because we are going to play it into the studio. Let's have a listen.

# Promise this

# Take the time to say your grace... #

Do you have the melody in your head? OK, best of luck to you, Nareece.

Ready, steady, play. Open the door.

SHE COPIES THE MELODY

OK, Dawn.

SHE PLAYS A DIFFERENT MELODY

OK.

Good luck, Alex.

SHE PLAYS OUT OF TUNE

Ooh!

Stop playing!

-Davina, what have I got on the card?

-Take A Chance On Me.

Ooh, good song, but unfortunately it's wrong. OK, let's open the door.

-40 points.

-Happy Birthday?

-Happy Birthday?

-Sorry, it's wrong, I'm afraid. Let's open the door.

-The Only Way Is Up.

The Only Way Is Up? What a great tune! Unfortunately, that is wrong.

-Right.

-Hot Cross Buns?

-It's wrong, I'm afraid. Let's open the door.

-Finally, Dawn.

-Lady Gaga.

-No, it's not, unfortunately.

-Nareece, go on, tell your team.

-Promise This, Cheryl Cole.

Let's have a listen.

# Promise this

# Take the time to say your grace. #

That does mean that you get no points,

but give them a round of applause. That was awesome.

Right, so, after three rounds,

Harry's team have 60 points

and Nareece's team have 30 points.

After a shaky start from both teams,

some fantastic miming put points on the board.

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

Which team triumphed over the tubes?

-Which team are doing the cha-cha to the ballroom?

-OK. The wait is over.

I can reveal that one team got 30 points in the challenge.

I can also reveal that one team got 70 points...

..which means the team going through to the Copycats Ball Room,

playing for the trophy, is...

..Harry's team.

So, unfortunately, that means we have to say goodbye to Nareece's team.

Have you had a good time? THEY CHEER

Excellent. Give it up for Nareece's team, everyone. Brilliant.

OK, team. You have made it this far but right 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 EXCLAIM

Let me introduce to you... The Ball Room!

-AUDIENCE:

-Ooh!

-I think it does deserve an "ooh", yes.

-Indeed. Harry,

who have you chosen to take part?

-I've chosen Seamus, Richard and Jack.

-Oh!

You've taken yourself out of the equation. Interesting tactics.

Well, before we open the doors,

let's take a 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.

Rogue-coloured balls collected will be deducted from the total.

Good luck.

So, if you're ready,

in three, two, one....

ALL: Blast the balls!

Here we go. Representing Harry's team, it's Jack, Seamus and Richard.

Off you go, guys.

25 balls to catch,

then you win the bingy-boingy golden trophy if you do.

Come on. Four, five, six in there already. This is good! Good scoring.

Quickly as you can, Seamus. That's it. Another one goes in.

Well done, Jack, who's put one in there, as well.

This is very good. We are motoring! Excellent.

Don't put any wrongly-coloured balls in.

There'll be deductions if you do. 20 seconds left - that's all, guys.

Don't juggle with them for goodness' sake, Seamus! Come on.

A lot of fun inside the ballroom. Encouragement from outside,

as well, which is much needed. It all helps.

Come on, quickly as you can. Time is running out.

Only the green ones, remember. Quickly as you can!

KLAXON BLARES

OK. The balls have been counted and the results have been checked,

and then they were checked again, and they were checked a third time.

-By me!

-You needed 25 green balls to win the trophy. However,

if you placed any of the other coloured balls in the container,

they will have been deducted from your score.

I can reveal that you collected...

..twenty...

-..six green balls!

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-You did it!

-You've won

this magnificent, monumental Copycats trophy. Lift it up!

The South Yorkshire massive! THEY CHEER

-Harry's team, have you had a good day?

-Yeah!

-Awesome!

Give it up for Harry's team, everybody.

That is the end of the show, and what a way to end it!

-Can I just shake your hand?

-Well done!

-Thanks, mate.

We'll see you next time on Copycats.
