Episode 39 Copycats

.

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

'and today's Copycats are:

'Emrhys's team from Cardiff

'and Alexander's team from Edinburgh.'

CHEERING

BOTH: Hello!

And welcome to Copycats, the show, unlike an IT exam,

where we actually encourage you to copy the person next to you,

because it could win you the ultimate, money-can't-buy prize -

the Copycats trophy!

-Yeah!

-Yes, indeed!

# It's gold, it's springy, it goes bingy-boingy - Copycats trophy!

# Copycats trophy... #

No? No.

LAUGHTER

Yes, our teams are playing for the one-and-only Copycats trophy.

-# It's bingy... #

-No, no. Shall we meet the teams?

-Let's do it.

-Alexander's team. Good?

-ALL: Yeah!

-Yeah!

Alexander, introduce the rest of your team.

This is Alanna, my friend, this is Sebastian, he's my brother.

This is Fiona, my friend's mum,

this is Amy, my mum, and this is Frank, my dad.

-Lovely to have you on the show. Going to win it for me today?

-Yes!

I see the intensity in the eyes. Give it up for them.

APPLAUSE

Over here, we've got Emrhys's team. You all all right? ALL: Yeah!

Ready for it? ALL: Yeah! Awesome.

Emrhys, introduce the gang.

This is Emily, my friend, Jessica, my friend,

Liz, the mother of the two, Nye, my brother, Drew, my dad.

Lovely to have you guys. Are you going to win it for me today?

ALL: Yeah!

Yeah, that's what I like to hear. High-five it.

Give it up for Emrhys's team! APPLAUSE

It looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

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

To get as many points as possible, each team will take it in turns

-to face the Copycats Challenge later on.

-We tossed a coin before the show

and Emrhys's team will play first. Let's play Copycats.

CHEERING

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

because it's time for Quick On The Draw.

I've got three cards, Emrhys. You choose one.

You've then got 10 seconds to draw what's on that card to the person next to you

and so on and so on down the line.

There's a maximum of 50 points to be won. As we pass it down the line,

you lose 10 points for every incorrect answer.

Copycats, are you ready? ALL: Yeah!

Close the doors.

-We've got three cards. Which one would you like?

-That one.

The green one. Have a look.

O...K.

-Reckon you can draw that?

-Sure.

I reckon you can. 10 seconds. Best of luck. Ready, steady, draw!

OK, Liz, your turn.

Now your turn, mate.

Jessica, go for it.

Time's up. Stop drawing.

For a maximum of 50 points, can you tell us what Drew drew?

LAUGHTER

-A cross or something. I'm not sure.

-It does look like that, Emily,

but that's not the answer. We're playing for 40 points. Drew?

What do you reckon Jessica's drawn?

-Bart Simpson.

-SAM LAUGHS

Nice guess. It's not Bart Simpson. We're playing for 30 points. Jessica?

-Jigsaw piece.

-Great thinking. It's not, actually,

which means we're playing for 20 points. Nye, what do you reckon?

-Elephant in a hat.

-"Elephant in a hat"?

It's not. A good one, I like it.

We're playing for the minimum of 10 points.

This is a difficult one. Liz, any idea?

I'd say a train.

-It's not a train. Emrhys, do you want to tell everybody?

-A top hat.

A top hat.

That was a difficult one, I must say, so unfortunately,

you don't get any points, but there's a long way to go.

Give him a round of applause. APPLAUSE

-Sebastian, two cards left for you. Which would you like?

-The orange.

Have a look at that.

OK.

"OK"! Cautiously optimistic, I like that.

Ready, steady, draw.

Very good.

OK, Frank.

OK, Alanna.

OK, Amy.

Stop drawing.

CHEERING

It was a tricky one, this.

For a maximum of 50 points, Alexander, any idea of the answer?

-Is it a bungee jump?

-Looks like that, but it's not the answer.

-Let's open the door. Amy, for 40 points.

-Is it a trapeze?

It's not. Very good guesses. Let's open the door for 30 points.

-Alanna, any idea?

-Is it somebody sitting on a swing?

Yeah!

Brilliant. Great drawing.

That's the way to draw if you've only got 10 seconds.

You get yourselves 30 points. Congratulations. Very good.

After Quick On The Draw,

have Emrhys's team put on their top hat and tails for the Ball Room?

Will Alexander's team be swinging their way into the final?

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

'After Quick On The Draw,

'Emrhys's team have no points

'and Alexander's team have 30 points.'

CHEERING

-Plenty of time left.

-Indeed.

-The next round tests skill, nerve

and determination - yes!

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

My team won the toss and go first.

My team, so you don't get sneaky peek, we are sending you away.

-Say goodbye for the time being to Alexander's team.

-Bye!

Bye!

-Lovely.

-Nice.

Emrhys, as team captain, you need to select three people

to face the awesome Copycats Challenge.

before you do, let's see what's in store. Mr D, what could it be?

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

'Players remove the corresponding rod whilst trying to avoid

'the balls dropping. 10 points for every rod pulled out,

'but 10 points will be deducted for any ball that falls.'

OK, team, best of luck. In three, two, one...pull!

'It's the team captain, Emrhys, to start us off.

'A yellow rod, please, if you would.

'10 points are awarded for every rod successfully removed. Black next...

'for Liz, Emrhys's friend's mum.

'Does that well. Next red...

'for Drew, Emrhys's dad.

This is going well. Next, Emrhys.

A red one, please, without any of the balls dropping. Be careful!

'Two have fallen.

'Next black for Liz.

'Yeah, that's a good one to choose.

'Next yellow for Drew.

'Really concentrating. Very good, and it paid off.

Next, a yellow for Emrhys.

'Yes!

'Well identified. Next, red for Liz.

'Is that the one to pull? Oh, a few more balls have fallen.

'There we go. Next, black for Drew.

'He's eyeing them up!

'Oh, another one's fallen.

'Next, yellow.

'Come on, Emrhys. Not too quickly!

'Oh! Got to be very careful.

'Black for Liz. Now, Liz takes her time.

'She's choosing which one.

'Lots of advice being offered. that was a good one to choose. Well done.

'Quickly! Less than 10 seconds. Red for Drew. Come on, Drew!

'Choose one.

OK, come on, quickly, you've started so you can finish.'

CHEERING

That's harder than it looks, that game.

LAUGHTER

We will add those points to your total after the music round.

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

The points from the challenge could make all the difference

to a dream ticket to the Ball Room! Give it up for them.

Welcome back, Alexander's team. Let's play Mime Time.

Fiona, I've got three cards. Pick one of these cards.

You're then going to have 10 seconds to mime whatever is on the card

and then so on and so on down the line.

As for all the pass-it-on rounds, 50 points is up for grabs,

but you lose 10 points for every wrong answer going down the line.

-Copycats, are you ready?

-Yes.

No, no, no. Copycats, are YOU ready?

-YES!

-More like it!

OK, let's close the doors.

-OK, Fiona, got three cards here. Which would you like?

-Purple.

Purple.

Reckon you can do that?

-I can do that.

-Well, the best of luck, Fiona. Ready, steady, mime.

Open the door.

Alanna?

MARK MOUTHS

Alexander, your turn.

OK, Frank.

OK, Sebastian.

Stop miming.

CHEERING

Very good miming. For a maximum of 50 points, Amy, any idea?

-Wobbly tooth?

-Yes!

Well done.

That was great. Some of you put the wobbly tooth under the pillow

for the tooth fairy. Alexander is saying, "That was me."

Congratulations, Alexander's team, You get the full 50 points.

-OK, two cards left. Which would you like?

-Orange.

-Orange.

Take a look.

Oh!

-Is that a good "oh"?

-It's a difficult "oh"!

I'm sure you can do it. You've got 10 seconds. The best of luck.

Ready, steady, mime.

Can't argue with that.

OK, Emily, your turn.

Drew?

Jessica?

Time's up. Stop miming.

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

Listening to music.

Yeah!

Nice work. Good technique, putting Nye in the first booth there.

Great at miming. Well done, guys.

You get the full 50 points.

After Mime Time, do Alexander's team have a winning smile?

TING!

And have Emrhys's team got a No.1 hit on their hands?

-We've had a No.1 hit...

-Yeah, when it mattered.

-No big deal.

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

'Well, Sam, after Mime Time,

'Emrhys's team have 50 points.

'Alexander's team have 80 points.'

CHEERING

Time to get serious, once again.

-Alexander's team face the Copycats Challenge.

-It's YOUR chance now

to attempt to add some crucial points to your overall score.

-Are you ready?

-Yes!

SAM AND MARK CHEER

Love it!

Emrhys's tea, we'll say goodbye but only for a while.

-Bye, Emrhys's team.

-Bye!

Now, Alexander, as team captain, you need to select three people

to play face the Copycats Challenge.

Before you do that, let's see what's in store. Mr D, what could it be?

'The drop. As before, an image of a coloured rod will be on the screen.

'Players must remove the corresponding rod while avoiding

'any of the balls dropping.

'10 points for every rod pulled out,

'but 10 points will be deducted for any ball that falls.'

CHEERING

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

'Off he goes, that's team captain, Alexander.

'Yellow first. Gently does it.

'Excellent. We're off to a good start. Next it's Fiona,

'Alexander's friend's mum.

'That's a black one. Red next...

'for Frank, Alexander's dad.

'Superbly done. Next red...

'for Alexander.

'He has to reach up

'but does it well.

'Next....Fiona, black.

'Go on, Fiona.

'10 points are deducted when a ball falls.

'We don't want that happening.

'Frank, well done.

'Yellow again,

'this time for Alexander.

'That was a very good one to choose. Next...Fiona!

'Red.

'Yes.

'Doing well so far. Frank, black.

'Now got to be careful from now on in. Oh!

'The balls moved but didn't drop. That's good. Alexander...yellow.

'Slowly does it.

'Yes, well done. Black next for Fiona.

'Which one are you going to choose? That's a good one.

'The balls moved a bit there, but none dropped.

'Next, red for Frank. Come on, Frank.

Choose wisely. Oh! A couple have dropped there.

MR D LAUGHS

'Quite a few more, and they're dropping still.

'Five seconds to go. Come on, guys, quickly.

'Alexander, you had one of the yellow rods. You've started.'

Well done, guys. One round to play before we add that to your total

and we can reveal who'll play for the trophy. Give it up once more

-for Alexander's team.

-APPLAUSE

Welcome back, Emrhys's team. This is the Music Round. All you have to do

is pick a well-known tune then copy that tune to the person next to you

on the Copycats kazoo.

OK, could everybody, except Jessica, put your headphones on

so you don't hear which song is being selected?

Our Copycats look ready. Close the doors.

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

-Green, please.

-Green, did you say?

-Yes.

-Take a look.

Do you know that song?

-Yeah...

-Don't worry.

We'll put it into the studio.

Have a listen. Get the melody in your head. Let's hear it.

# Cos I-I-I-I-I

# Need ti-i-i-i-ime... #

OK, you've got 10 seconds, Jessica. Three, two, one, play.

Cor! Nye, if you get this, I'm going to buy you all dinner tonight.

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

-All Time Low.

-It's not All Time Low,

which means we're playing for 40 points. Liz, what do you reckon?

-Everybody In Love.

-Everybody In Love by JLS. It's not.

We're playing for 30 points. Emrhys?

-Er...The Keys.

-The what, sorry?

-The Keys by Mumford & Sons.

you get no points and, luckily for me, I don't have to buy you dinner.

LAUGHTER

Give them a round of applause anyway.

Alexander, two cards. Which would you like?

-Er, I'll take this.

APPLAUSE

'OK, so after three rounds,

'Emrhys's team have 50 points,

'and Alexander's team

'have 80 points.'

Good performances from the teams in the pass-it-on rounds,

except maybe the Music Round,

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

Which team destroyed The Drop

and which team are going all the way to the Ball Room?

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

10 points in the challenge.

I can also reveal that one team got...

50 points in the challenge...

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

and playing for the trophy is...

..Emrhys's team!

Well done, Emrhys's team.

Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to Alexander's team.

-Had a good time?

-ALL: Yeah!

You've been a brilliant team. Give it up for Alexander's team.

OK, Emrhys's team, you've made it this far and now it's time

to compete for the fabulous, money-can't-buy, limited-edition,

shiny, springy thing that is this:

the Copycats trophy.

CHEERING

The Ball Room. Emrhys, who have you chosen to play the Ball Room?

-I've chosen Emily, Jess and Nye.

-Excellent.

-Keeping yourself out of it?

-Yeah.

-Then you can blame them.

-That was my plan all along.

-Don't blame you, mate.

Before we open the door, let's see 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!'

Good luck, team. In three, two, one...

ALL: Blast the balls!

'Here we go, Ball Room fans. Nye, Emrhys's brother,

'Emily, Emrhys's friend,

'and Jessica, Emrhys's other friend, are in the Ball Room,

'trying to catch as many green balls as they can.

'Don't forget, rogue-coloured balls will not count,

'in fact, they'll be deducted.

'We don't want any other colours in there.

'As quickly as we can, guys. This is good.

'There's plenty of green ones going in.

'Lots of shouting from the sidelines as well, encouraging them

'to get as many as they can. 30 seconds left. Come on.

'Fast vas you can.

'In they go. They're stacking up. This is good.

'They're enjoying themselves in there,

'but they're working hard.

'Look at the smile there on Nye's face.

'Come on. They're queuing up to put the balls in. This is fantastic.

'Come on. 25 we need in there. Are there 25 in there?

'We're about to find out.'

KLAXON BLARES

-Absolutely.

-OK, the balls have been counted.

The results have been checked and verified.

You needed 25 green balls to win the trophy.

I can reveal you collected...

Yes! That's got to be some kind of Commonwealth/European record.

Big time!

Got to be. You were awesome in there. You were brilliant.

You've nearly filled up our thing here.

-Brilliant.

-You enjoyed yourselves? ALL: Yeah!

-Give it up for Emrhys's team!

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-What a way to end the show.

-Fantastic end.

-Fantastic end! See you next time! Bye!

-Bye!
