Episode 23 Copycats

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

'And today's Copycats are...

'Liz's team from Penarth

'and Eleanor's team from Northumberland.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

BOTH: Hello!

And welcome to Copycats, where copying is good!

Whether drawing, miming or playing the kazoo,

the better you copy the more points you'll get.

Yes, the team with the most points at the end

gets the chance to play for the new and improved

gold, bingy-bongy Copycats trophy!

-AUDIENCE:

-Woo!

-Shall we meet the teams?

-Let's do it, right!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

I'm excited over here, because I've got Eleanor's team!

THEY CHEER

All right! Eleanor, team captain, introduce the gang, please.

This is Heather and Charlotte, my friends from school.

This is my Auntie Jayne, my mum's partner, Gary, and my mum, Michelle.

Wow, you look a speed demon! He was amazing!

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

-You looking forward to it?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

-Are you going to win it for me?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

-Jayne, confident?

Wey aye! All right, give it up for Eleanor's team, everyone, fantastic.

All right.

They look good, but not as good as my team! You all right, Liz's team?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

-Woo!

Liz, team captain, introduce the gang for us.

My two best friends, Kyrsty and Ellie.

These are their mums, Cath and Jo.

And this is my dad, Keith.

-Hiya, Keith, you all right?

-I'm great!

He's great! Keith's great! Awesome. Are you excited to be here, guys?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

-And more importantly, are you going to win this for me?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

-That's all I need to know.

The best of luck for today's show. Give it up for Liz's team!

OK, looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

The teams will take turns to copy pictures, actions and music.

And to get as many points as possible,

each team will take turns to do the Copycats' Challenge later.

We tossed a coin before the show

and Eleanor's team will be playing first. Let's play Copycats!

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

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

Michelle, I've got three cards. You'll pick one, have ten seconds

to draw whatever's on the card for the next player, which is Heather,

and so on and down the line. There is a maximum of 50 points

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

for every incorrect answer.

-Are you ready?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

-All right, let's close the doors!

You look petrified. It's all right, it's all right.

-Orange, green or purple?

-Purple.

OK, have a look at that.

Do you think you can draw that?

There was like a "Ahhh." OK, the best of luck, Michelle.

Ready, steady, draw! Off you go.

Heather, your turn.

Eleanor, your turn.

HE MOUTHS

Charlotte.

HE MOUTHS

Gary, come on.

Stop drawing!

I'm not going to lie - I'm a little bit confused!

For a maximum of 50 points, Jayne, what's the answer I'm looking for?

I think it maybe looks like a cake.

It is not a cake. Let's open the door. Gary.

What's the answer, for 40 points?

Suitcase.

Oh, I see where you're going. It is not a suitcase.

Let's open the door. For 30 points, Charlotte.

Erm...

Two balloons?

A great drawing of two balloons, if it was two balloons.

OK, open the door. For 20 points, Eleanor?

Is it a present or a parcel?

It's a great guess,

but it's wrong, I'm afraid.

OK, for the minimum of ten points, what has Michelle drawn there?

SHE LAUGHS

-No, seriously, what has she drawn?

-HE LAUGHS

-A table?

-A table. It is not a table.

-Michelle, tell everybody what it is.

-It was a clothes peg!

-Of course it is(!)

-That's the line and the peg!

Ah, brilliant! Well, that entertained me!

Give them a round of applause. No points, but they entertained me!

That's fantastic!

Cath, two cards left. Which would you like?

-Orange, please.

-Orange. Take a look.

-Thank you.

-Think you can do that?

-I'll go for it.

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

Hey.

Ten seconds, not a long time. Try and get in as much detail as you can.

OK, Ellie, your turn.

Liz, your turn.

Your turn. Ooh, mind the door.

Time's up! Stop drawing.

HE LAUGHS

Keith, I love how you stood there, ready.

Like you were about to set off.

OK, Keith, for a maximum of 50 points,

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

-A toaster?

Nice thinking. It does look like that.

It's not, so you're playing for 40 points. Joanna, what do you reckon?

Erm...

A...

computer.

It's not a computer, so we're playing for 30 points. Liz.

-Is it a village or something like that?

-A village!

It's not a village, so we're playing for 20 points,

Ellie?

-A kite?

-It's not a kite. Nice thinking.

We're playing for the minimum of ten points.

-A plug?

-Yay!

Well done, guys, You get yourselves ten points.

OK. After Quick On The Draw,

are Eleanor's team's chances flapping in the wind?

And have Liz's team blown a fuse?

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

'Well, Sam, after Quick On The Draw, Liz's team have ten points

'and Eleanor's team have no points.'

-Ooh!

-Close.

-The next round tests skill, nerve and determination.

Yes, it just got serious - this is the Copycats' Challenge.

And because my team won the toss, they will be going first.

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

we're going to send you off.

Go and chill out. Say bye to Liz's team. Bye! Have a nice rest.

Now, Eleanor, as team captain,

you now need to select three people to face the magnificent

Copycats' Challenge, but first, let's find out what's in store.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Welcome back to the game, Liz's team. Let's play Mine Time.

Ellie, I've got three cards, pick one, you have 10 seconds to mime

what's on that card to the player next to you, which is Keith,

and so on. Remember, we're looking for silent performances.

As with all the passing rounds, 50 points are up for grabs,

but don't forget, you lose 10 points for every incorrect answer

going back down the line.

-You know the rules, Copycats. Are you ready? ALL:

-Pretty good.

Not bad at all, guys. Well done. OK. There's only one more round to play

before we add those points to your total

and we can reveal which team are going to be playing for the trophy.

Give it up for Liz's team. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right. Welcome back, Eleanor's team. This is the music round.

Lovely Jayne, all you need to do is pick a well-known tune

and recreate it to the player next to you,

which is Charlotte on the world-famous Copycats' kazoo.

Could everyone except for Jayne please now put your headphones on,

so you do not hear which song is being selected? Thank you.

Our Copycats are ready. Let's close the doors.

-We've got purple, green or orange.

-Purple.

-She was already on purple.

-OK.

We'll play it into the studio so you get the melody in to your head. Take a listen.

# We got a little world of our own

# I'll tell you things that no-one else knows

# I let you in where no-one else goes

# What am I doing without you? #

What a tune, what a band.

-Best of luck.

-Thank you.

-Ready, steady, play.

KAZOO PLAYS

Oh, well done.

LAUGHTER

MARK LAUGHS

Go on, Eleanor. Good luck.

KAZOO PLAYS

It's a lovely little tune.

KAZOO PLAYS

MARK LAUGHS

Now stop playing!

Oh, that was brilliant.

OK, Gary, best of luck.

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

Poker Face, Lady Gaga.

It is not Poker Face, Lady Gaga. Good guess though.

Let's open the door.

-For 40 points, Heather?

-Glad You Came by The Wanted?

It's a good guess, but it's not the right answer.

Let's open the door.

-Adele, Rolling In The Deep?

-It's not Adele.

OK, let's open the door for 20 points.

Jessie J, Price Tag?

All great guesses, but unfortunately the wrong guesses.

It was like listening to the song itself,

it was played so beautifully.

-For 10 points, Charlotte?

-Um, Forget You?

SHE LAUGHS

-HE LAUGHS

-Tell us what it is.

It was World Of Our Own by Westlife.

-Course it was! Let's have a listen.

-# We got a little world of our own

# I'll tell you things that no-one else knows

# I'll let you in where no-one else goes...#

Unfortunately, you don't get any points, but give them a round of applause.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

We've got two cards left. Which one would you like?

-Green, please.

-Take a look.

Do you know that song?

Ooh, I think so.

Don't worry because we are going to play it into the studio,

so have a listen, get the melody in your head. Let's hear it.

# But you put on quite a show

# Really had me going

# But now it's time to go

# Curtains finally closing

# That was quite a show... #

OK, good luck, Jo. You've got 10 seconds. Ready, steady, play.

KAZOO PLAYS

Play.

KAZOO PLAYS

HE LAUGHS Cath, your turn.

Ellie, your turn.

KAZOO PLAYS

LAUGHTER

Keith.

Time's up. Stop playing.

I was enjoying that, Keith. I was enjoying that.

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

-Price Tag.

-Price Tag by Jessie J? It's not, unfortunately.

Which means we're playing for 40 points. Open the door, please.

Keith, any idea?

-Just Dance?

-Just Dance, by Lady Gaga?

It's not. Sorry, Keith.

-We're playing for 30 points, Ellie?

-The Lazy Song.

It's not - a popular choice this series of Copycats.

-Cath?

-Forget About You?

All right. No need to be rude, Cath. Oh, the song!

Sorry, sorry! It's not that.

Which means we're playing for the minimum of 10 points. Kyrsty, I've got to say,

-Jo did a cracking job. Any idea?

-Er, Funhouse?

It's not. Do you want to tell everybody?

-It's Take A Bow, Rihanna.

-Let's hear it.

# But you put on quite a show

# You really had me going

# Now it's time to go... #

Yes, it was Take A Bow by Rhianna so unfortunately that means at the end

of the round you don't get any points, but it was very entertaining.

Give them a round of applause anyway. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

'OK, so after three rounds, Liz's team have 60 points

'and Eleanor's team have 50 points.'

Not the best scores in the past few rounds, apart from Mime Time

where both teams scored maximum points,

but we still have to reveal the scores form the Copycats' Challenge.

Which team beat The Bounce?

-And which team have a one-way ticket to the Ballroom?

-The wait is over.

I can reveal that one team got...

60 points in the challenge.

Respectable.

# Respectable. #

I can also reveal that one team got...

-120 points! AUDIENCE:

-Woo!

Which means the team going through to the Copycats' Ballroom

and playing for the trophy is...

..Liz's team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well done, guys. Well done.

So I'm afraid, we've got to say goodbye to Eleanor's team.

-You've been a brilliant team. Have you enjoyed yourselves?

-ALL:

-Yes!

You've been great. Give it up for Eleanor's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Liz's team. Well done, you've made it this far.

It's time to compete for the fabulous, money can't buy, limited edition,

lovely, shiny, springy thing Sam Nixon holds in his hand,

-the Copycats' Trophy.

-AUDIENCE:

-Woo!

Oh, yes. Do you want to touch it? No!

Here is the Ballroom.

-Liz, who have you chosen to play the Ballroom?

-My two buddies and myself.

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

Go on, you can touch it. No!

'The Ballroom.

'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.'

Look, if you're ready, in three, two, one...

ALL: Blast the balls!

'Good luck then to Kyrsty, Liz and Ellie, who are in the Ballroom.

'The aim is to catch 25 balls, at least,

'to be in with a chance of winning the Copycats' Trophy.

'There's one of them going in, that's good news.

'Come on, quickly as you can, girls. And another. Very good.

'Need more than that, though.

'And the time will fly by. Come on!

'Quickly as you can. That's good.

'Come on, girls. Oh, two together there. Excellent work.

'Less than 30 seconds then. Here we go.

-HE LAUGHS

-'Over enthusiasm, from outside the Ballroom.

'Come on, come on. Move around there, that's it.

'You have to catch them while they're in the air.

'No picking up the balls from the Ballroom floor.

'They're stacking up now, good news. Come on, come on!

'Just a few seconds left!

'Another one or two perhaps? Come on!'

END-OF-ROUND HORN

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well done.

-They were like Ballroom ninjas there.

-Yes.

-Excellent.

The balls have been counted and the result checked and verified.

You needed 25 green balls to win this beautiful trophy.

I can reveal that you collected...

-31!

-Yes!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-A beacon of loveliness.

-Nice!

Well done, Liz's team. Have you enjoyed yourselves?

-ALL:

-Yes!

-Well done, what a great way to end the show.

Give it up for Liz's team, everyone. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Hey!

-Go on.

We'll see you next time on Copycats. Bye!
