Episode 35 Copycats

.

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

'And today's Copycats are

'Phoebe's team from East Sussex

'And Robbie's team from Glasgow.'

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

BOTH: Hello!

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

Now, Mark. I don't know if you've noticed,

but there are loads of comic book heroes at the minute,

and I think we should cash in and become super heroes.

Yeah, good idea. When the bad guys see us, they'll run a mile.

Big time. They will fear us in our costumes.

We've got costumes?

Yeah, we've got costumes! Well, I say "we" - YOU'VE got one.

Thanks very much, John.

-I can't wait for this!

-Yeah, here you go.

All right! Wait a minute.

LAUGHTER

What? Wh-?

Are you having a laugh? This is my costume?

Yeah.

Sam, you know I only wear WHITE tutus.

Oh, sorry, I forgot! Sorry.

Tell you what, though. I do like the wand. Shaaaa!

-Yeah! Let's meet the teams.

-Yeah! Woo!

APPLAUSE

-Over here we've got Robbie's team. Yeah!

-ALL: Yeah!

Robbie, introduce the rest of your team, please, mate.

This is my friend, Ryan, and this is my friend, Jack.

This is my mum, Tracey. This is my papa, Les,

and this is Ryan's mum, Lisa.

It's lovely to have you on the show. You excited?

-ALL: Yeah!

-You going to win it for me?

-ALL: Yes!

That is good to know. Give it up for Robbie's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right. Over here we've got my team, Phoebe's team.

You all all right? ALL: Yeah!

Awesome. Phoebe, introduce the gang.

This is my friend, Louise. This is my friend, Jacob.

This is my mum, Penny. My dad, Jason,

and my family friend, Terisa.

Excellent. Are you excited to be here?

-ALL: Yes!

-Awesome. And are you going to win it for me?

-ALL: Yes!

Yeah, you are! Give it up for Phoebe's team.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

All 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 take it in turns

to face the Copycats Challenge,

and the chance to win the Copycats trophy.

AUDIENCE: Ooooh!

-Yeah!

-We tossed a coin before the show,

and Phoebe's team are going to play first. Let's play Copycats.

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

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

Phoebe, I've got three cards. You'll pick one,

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

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

There's a maximum of 50 points to be won in this round,

but as we go back down the line,

you'll lose ten points for every incorrect answer.

Copycats, are you ready?

ALL: Yes!

All right, let's close the doors.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-OK, Phoebe, we've got three cards. Which one would you like?

-Er, this.

Orange. Take a look.

-OK.

-Think you can draw that?

-Yeah.

-Nice, I like it. You've got ten seconds. The best of luck.

Ready, steady, draw!

OK, not bad at all. Jacob, your turn.

OK, Terisa, your turn.

Time to spare.

All right.

All right. Louise.

Time's up! Stop drawing. OK.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

All right.

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

Looks like a ladder to me.

It does, but that's not the answer.

Which means you're playing for 40 points. Louise?

Is it some sort of stripy scarf?

It's not, unfortunately.

Which means we're playing for 30 points. Jason, what do you reckon?

-No. No, sorry.

-All right, we're playing for 20 points.

Terisa, what do you reckon?

Is it a railway line?

It's not. Which means we're playing for the minimum of ten points.

Jacob, what do you reckon? It's good.

Is it just a box-headed man wearing some Speedos?

SAM LAUGHS

High five for the greatest answer EVER on Copycats!

That's a box-headed man wearing some Speedos.

LAUGHTER

I wish... Can we not give him the points anyway, for that?

That's amazing. It's not, unfortunately.

-Phoebe, do you want to tell everybody?

-It's a chair!

It's a chair!

Unfortunately, guys, that means you don't get any points

but don't worry, there's a long way to go.

Give them a round of applause.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Les, I've got two cards,

-which would you like?

-I'll take this one.

OK, The green one. Have a look.

-OK.

-Think you can draw that?

-I think so.

Right, the best of luck, Les. Ready, steady, draw!

Off you go.

OK, Robbie.

Lisa, your turn.

Ryan, off you go.

Stop drawing!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, for maximum 50 points, any idea what Ryan's drawn, Tracey?

Is it a dinosaur?

It's not. Let's open the door for 40 points.

Ryan, what's Lisa drawn?

A horse?

It's not a horse.

Let's open the door. 30 points. Lisa?

I think it might be a sheep.

It is not a sheep.

OK, for 20 points.

A leaf?

It's not, I'm afraid.

Robbie. What's that?

-Is it a swan?

-Yeah! That's amazing!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well done, you get yourselves ten points. Congratulations!

Nice work.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

After Quick On The Draw, did Phoebe's team sit that one out?

And are Robbie's team in a flap? Let's look at the scores.

Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Mark. After Quick On The Draw, Phoebe's team have no points,

'and Robbie's team have ten points.'

All right!

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

Yes, the game just got serious,

because this is the Copycats Challenge.

My team won the toss, they'll go first.

My team, so you don't get a sneaky peek, we are going to send you off.

But don't worry, you will be coming back.

So, for the time being, say goodbye to Robbie's team.

-Bye!

-Bye!

-See you later.

Now, Phoebe, as team captain, you now need to select three people

to face the magnificent Copycats Challenge.

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

Mr D, what could it be?

It's that!

'The Bounce. Five shapes will be shown on the screen.

'Players must copy the sequence whilst bouncing on the trampoline.

'Ten points are awarded for every shape in the correct order.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK. Phoebe, here comes your sequence.

'The cheerleader,

'air guitar,

'the Cossack,

'the funky chicken,

'the rocket.'

OK. If you're ready, shape one.

Cheerleader.

-Shape two.

-Air guitar.

Shape three.

-The Cossack.

-Shape four.

The... rocket.

-Shape five.

-The rocket.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Jacob, here comes your sequence.

'The Cossack,

'The rocket,

'The funky chicken,

'air guitar,

'the cheerleader.'

If you're ready, shape one.

Er, the "crossack".

-Shape two.

-The rocket.

-Shape three.

-Er, the cheerleader.

Shape four.

Um, the rocket.

-Shape five.

-Air guitar.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, and finally, Penny, here comes your sequence.

'The rocket,

'The Cossack,

'air guitar,

'the cheerleader,

'the funky chicken.'

Good luck. Shape one.

Rocket.

Shape two.

Cossack.

Shape three.

Air guitar.

Shape four.

-Funky chicken.

-Shape five.

Cheerleader.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well done, guys, well done. It's quite tough, that, isn't it?

Remember, we will add those points to your total after the music round.

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

Remember, the points from the Challenge

could make all the difference.

Because the dream ticket to the Ball Room is at stake.

Give it up for Phoebe's team. Well done.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

OK, Ryan. I've got three cards.

You're going to pick one,

you then have ten seconds to mime whatever is on that card

for the player next to you, Lisa, and so on down the line.

But remember, we are looking for silent performances. Understand?

Fantastic. With all the pass-it-on rounds,

50 points are up for grabs,

but don't forget you'll lose ten points

for every incorrect answer back down the line.

Best of luck. Are you ready?

-ALL: Yeah!

-Yeah! Let's close the doors.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Ryan, mate, I've got three cards. Which one would you like?

Oh, he's already in there.

-Yeah? You got that?

-Yep.

The best of luck, Ryan. Ready, steady, mime!

Off you go.

Lisa, your turn.

Robbie, off you go.

Tracey, your turn.

OK, Jack.

OK, stop miming!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

For a maximum 50 points, Les,

-what's the answer?

-Yo-yo?

It is yo-yo!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

It's actually called "yo-yoing",

but we are going to give you the 50 points

because I'm in a nice mood.

Give 'em a round of applause! Nice work!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-Louise, how's your miming skills?

-OK.

-OK?

We've got two cards left, which one would you like?

-Purple.

-Purple. Take a look.

-Think you can do that?

-Yeah.

-OK, you've got ten seconds.

The best of luck. Ready, steady, mime!

Nice. Terisa, your turn.

OK, Jason.

OK, Phoebe.

OK, Penny.

Time's up! Stop miming!

OK. Good miming.

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

Um, doing up buttons on a shirt.

Yay! Good man!

Woo! Very good. Well done, guys.

You get yourselves the full 50 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right! So, after Mime Time,

will Robbie's team be hanging out in the Ball Room?

Yo, yo, yo! Playa! Woo!

And have Phoebe's team dressed to impress?

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

'Well, Sam, after Mime Time, Phoebe's team have 50 points,

'and Robbie's team have 60 points.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-It's so tight! Can't believe it.

-Big time.

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

cos Robbie's team are about to face the Copycats Challenge.

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

-Are you ready?

-ALL: Yes!

I thought you were.

Phoebe's team, it's time for you to leave, but you will be coming back.

-Say "bye" to Phoebe's team.

-Bye!

-See you later.

All right. Now, Robbie, as team captain,

you need to select three people to face the Copycats Challenge.

But before that, let's look at what's in store for you.

Mr D, tell us, will ya?

'The Bounce.

'As before, five shapes will be shown on the screen.

'Players must copy the sequence whilst bouncing on the trampoline.

'Ten points are awarded for every shape in the correct order.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

MARK LAUGHS

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well done, guys. It's tough, isn't it?

Only one more round to play

before we add those Challenge points to you total,

and we can reveal which team

will be playing for the Copycats trophy.

Give it up for Robbie's team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

All you have to do is pick a well-known tune,

then re-created that tune to the person next to you,

using the Copycats kazoo.

Everybody except Terisa please put your headphones on

so you don't hear which song has been selected.

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

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, Terisa, we've got three cards. Which one would you like?

-I'll go for the orange.

-Orange. Take a look.

-Do you know that song?

-OK.

-Oh, it's a thumbs up, we like that.

We are going to play it into the studio, so have a listen.

Let's hear it.

# I gotta feeling Woo-hoo

# That tonight's going to be A good night

# That tonight's going to be A good night... #

Good luck. You've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, play!

PLAYS TUNE ON KAZOO

Very good. Penny?

PLAYS TUNE ON KAZOO

OK, Louise, your turn.

PLAYS TUNE ON KAZOO

Jason.

NO SOUND FROM KAZOO

LAUGHTER

I can't get it!

Oh! Good luck, Phoebe!

PLAYS TUNE ON KAZOO

SAM AND PHOEBE LAUGH

Time's up! Stop playing!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-For 50 points, what do you think the answer is?

-I Need A Dollar?

It's not I Need A Dollar. Bless you for having a guess.

40 points. Phoebe, what do you reckon?

SHE MAKES A SQUEAKY NOISE

LAUGHTER

Is that your answer?

Yes.

SAM LAUGHS

-Name a song. You might get it right.

-Swagger Jagger.

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

-Jason?

-Dizzy?

-It's not.

Which means we're playing for 20 points. Louise?

Rolling In The Deep?

It's not. Which means we're playing for the minimum of ten points.

-Any idea?

-Tonight's Gonna Be A Good Night?

You've got the right song. We just need a title of the song.

All I can hear is that line!

-I don't know it!

-I'm so sorry, we have to be so strict.

We do need the title. It's only fair, guys.

Do you want to tell everybody?

-I Gotta Feeling.

-Oh!

# I gotta feeling Woo-hoo

# That tonight's going to be A good night... #

Guys, that means you don't get any points.

But give them a round of applause, anyway.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Robbie, got two cards left.

Green or purple, which one would you like?

-Eh, green.

-OK, have a look at that.

-You know that?

-Yep.

-All right, brilliant.

We are going to play it into the studio

so you can get the song into your head.

# In my head I see you all over me

# In my head

# You fulfil my fantasy

# In my head

# You'll be screaming o-o-o-o-oh... #

High five, Robbie. That was good dancing, mate.

Best of luck, Robbie. Ready, steady, play!

PLAYS TUNE ON KAZOO

Oh, well done.

PLAYS TUNE ON KAZOO

Brilliant.

PLAYS TUNE ON KAZOO

All right, Lisa.

PLAYS "I GOTTA FEELING" ON KAZOO

LAUGHTER

All right, Ryan.

PLAYS SIMILAR TUNE ON KAZOO

LAUGHTER

Stop playing!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Is anybody else getting deja vu, here?

MARK LAUGHS

OK, for 50 points, Les.

Tell me what the song is.

Tonight?

It is not Tonight.

OK. Let's open the door. For 40 points, Ryan.

I Gotta Feeling.

It is NOT, funnily enough, I Gotta Feeling.

Let's open the door. Lisa?

Oh. California Girls?

It is not California Girls.

-Let's open the door for 20 points. Jack, any idea?

-Eh, Runaway Baby?

It is not Runaway Baby.

Let's open the door. Tracey, Robbie did a brilliant job, here.

In My Head.

Yes! Well done, mate!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Brilliant.

# In my head You fulfil my fantasy... #

Cracking job. He sounded just like the song.

Well done, you get yourselves ten points. Yay!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

'OK, so after three rounds, Phoebe's team still have 50 points,

'and Robbie's team have 70 points.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Ooh. Now, poor performance in the pass-it-on rounds,

-except Mime Time where you were ALL brilliant.

-Yeah.

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

Which team beat The Bounce?

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

The wait is over.

I can reveal that one team got 90 points in the Challenge.

AUDIENCE: Oooooh!

Yeah.

I can also reveal that one team got 80 points.

AUDIENCE: Oooooh!

Which means, the team going through to the Copycats Ball Room

and playing for the trophy is...

Robbie's team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Well done, guys.

-Well done.

So, unfortunately, Phoebe's team, that means

we have to say goodbye to you.

I don't want to kick you when you're down,

but there's only ten points in it! Can you believe it!

-Nice work, Sam(!)

-Sorry! You enjoyed yourselves?

ALL: Yeah!

Nice one. You've been an awesome team. Give it up for Phoebe's team.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, congratulations, Robbie's team. You've made it this far.

But now it's time to compete for the fabulous, money-can't-buy,

limited edition, lovely, shiny, springy thing, the Copycats trophy.

-Oh, yeah!

-Woo!

AUDIENCE: Oooooh!

Robbie, here is the Ball Room. Who've you chosen to play?

I've chosen myself, Ryan and my mum, Tracey.

Right. Well, best of luck. Before we open the door,

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

'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!'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right, start if you're ready, in three, two, one,

SAM AND MARK: blast the balls!

'Here we go, then! It's Tracey, Ryan and Robbie.

'They're in the Ball Room. This for the Copycats trophy.

'They're having fun, look! Lots of smiley faces.

'And plenty of balls going in. This is good.

'Don't forget, any rogue coloured balls will be deducted.

'You mustn't pick the balls up from the Ball Room floor,

'catch is the name of the game.

'And they're doing well.

'Come on! A couple going in there.

'Less than 30 seconds, then.

'25 green balls need to pass into that scoring cylinder.

'There goes another.

'Come on, quickly as you can, guys! 20 seconds.

'That's it! Catch them in the air,

'and then put them in the scoring cylinder, just like that.

'Brilliant! And another!

'Come on, come on! Ten seconds to go.

'Catch those balls,

'and then put them into the scoring cylinder as quickly as you can.

'Come on, guys, can you get another couple in? There's one.'

HORN SOUNDS

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Good effort, guys.

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

You needed 25 green balls to win the trophy.

I can reveal that you collected...

..twenty...

..eight!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Yes! Hold it aloft, Robbie!

-Hold it up!

Yay!

Well done, guys! Fantastic!

A great way to end the show. Can you believe it?

Can you believe it? Give it up for Robbie's team, everyone!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Nice one!

We'll see you next time on Copycats.

SAM AND MARK: Bye!
