Episode 41 Copycats

'Welcome to Copycats, with Sam and Mark.'

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

'And today's Copycats are, Ruth's team, from Gloucestershire.

'and Ollie's team, from Northamptonshire.'

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

BOTH: Hello!

Welcome to Copycats, the game show where copying is good,

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

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

The team with the most points at the end of the show

will get the chance to play for the gold bingy-bongy Copycats trophy!

AUDIENCE: Woo!

-Sam Nixon, shall we meet the teams?

-Go on, Mark Rhodes.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Over here, we have Ollie's team. Good?

-ALL: Yeah!

-Ollie, introduce the gang, please.

This is my friend, Jasmine.

This is my cousin, Unity.

This is my mum, Becky.

This is my nanny, Barb

and this is my uncle, Matthew

-Looking forward to it?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

We'll have a lot of fun. And, you'll win it for me today.

ALL: Yeah!

All right! give it up for Ollie's Team, everyone!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Ollie's team look good. But not as good as Ruth's team!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

No offence! How you doing? You all right?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

-Excited to be here? ALL:

-Yeah!

-Ruth, introduce the gang for us.

-This is my friend, Amelia.

This is my other friend Abi and this is my older sister, Marta.

And this is Marta's best friend, Natasha.

And this is my dad, Juan.

Will you win this for me?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

Give it up for Ruth's team!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Not as good as my team, huh?

It looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

The teams will take it in turns

to copy pictures, actions, and displays of musical genius.

Each team will take turns to face the Copycats Challenge later on.

We tossed a coin which told us Ollie's Team will play first.

Let's play Copycats!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

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

-because it's time for Quick On The Draw. Becky...

-Yes.

Pick a card, you'll have ten seconds to draw it to the next player,

lovely Barbara, and so on down the line. There is a maximum

of 50 points, but as you pass it back down the line,

-you will lose ten points for every incorrect answer, OK?

-Yes.

-Guys, are you ready?

-Yes!

-Let's close the doors!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Oh, she's ready? Which card? Have a look at that.

-OK.

-Think you can draw that?!

-SHE GIGGLES

Best of luck. Ready, steady, draw.

OK, Barbara, your turn!

OK, Matthew, your turn.

Have that!

OK, Unity, your turn.

Stop drawing!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-For a maximum of 50 points - Ollie, what is it?

-Is it a boat?

It is not the answer that I have here.

OK, for 40 points, Unity?

-The sea?

-It's not the sea.

Let's open the door. For 30 points, Jasmin?

-A tree?

-It is not a tree! Let's open the door! Matthew?

-A crane.

-It is not a crane. It does look like a crane, granted.

Next, for the minimum of ten points, Barbara...?

What on earth has Becky drawn there?

I thought it was a test-your-strength machine thing...?

-Oh, with the mallet? Is that your answer?

-Yeah.

-It's wrong.

-LAUGHTER

-What was the answer, Becky?

-A vacuum cleaner!

-Of course it is!

-LAUGHTER

Unfortunately, you don't get any points, but hey,

I was entertained. Give them a round of applause!

That was great.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Did the door scare you, Abi?! We've got two cards left,

-which would you like?

-Green.

-OK, take a look.

-Reckon you can do that?

-Yeah.

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

Ooh, not bad. OK, Juan, your turn.

OK, Ruth...

Ha-ha-ha! Marta, your turn.

SAM LAUGHS

Time's up, stop drawing! OK!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Amelia, for 50 points, what do you think it is?

-Is it a book?

-It's not. So, for 40 points, Natasha...

-Someone in bed?

-Nice thinking, nice thinking. It's not, unfortunately.

-It's not. For 30 points?

-Someone climbing a ladder, cleaning windows?

I see where you're going, but it's not.

We're playing for 20 points, Ruth? Any idea?

Is it someone...

-lying on a lilo?

-Oh, it's not!

Juan, for just ten points,

what do you reckon? It's a tough one...

-A window cleaner?

-Oh, it's not.

Abi, do you want to tell everybody?

-Tennis court.

-It's a tennis court! Quite a difficult one,

to get in ten seconds, but, Abi, I thought you did a cracking job,

you got the net, the racket, at the last second!

So, no points in the first round, but there's a long way to go.

Give them a round of applause!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

So, after Quick On The Draw, have Ollie's team failed to clean up?

-Good one.

-Thanks.

-Have Ruth's team double-faulted? Whatever that means.

I'm not into my sport, apart from Badminton.

Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Sam, after Quick On The Draw, Ruth's team have no points

'and Ollie's team also have...no points!'

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING It's close.

-Couldn't be any closer.

-Next, we test skill, nerve and determination.

It just got serious, because this...is the Copycats Challenge.

My team won the toss and will be going first.

And my team, so you don't get a sneaky peak,

-you go off and get some juice or something. See you later!

-Bye!

APPLAUSE I miss them already, I miss them.

-Mark, I miss them.

-Ollie, as team captain,

you must select three people to face the magnificent Copycats Challenge.

First, let's find out what's in store, Mr D, what could it be?

'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.'

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Matthew, best of luck, here comes your sequence.

'The Egyptian.

'The funky chicken.

'Air guitar!

'The splits.'

OK! If you're ready? Shape one!

MARK LAUGHS

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

You did really well, guys. Now, we'll add those points to your total

after the Music Round. Ruth's team still need to face the Challenge,

which could make all the difference,

with a ticket to the Ball Room at stake.

Give it up for Ollie's team!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

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

You will pick one card, and have ten seconds to mime it

to the player next to you, and so on down the line, but remember,

it has to be silent performances. As with all the Pass It On rounds,

50 points are up for grabs, reduced by ten for every incorrect answer.

-You understand the rules, don't you?

-Yeah.

-OK, Copycats,

-are you ready?

-Yes!

-In that case, let's close the doors!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-Juan, which card would you like?

-The orange one.

-Take a look.

Thank you...

-Reckon you can do that?

-Yep.

-Excellent.

Ten seconds, best of luck. Ready, steady, mime.

Can't argue with that! Abi, your turn.

OK, Natasha.

Amelia, your turn.

OK, Marta.

Time's up, stop miming!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, Ruth, for a maximum of 50 points...?

-Was it washing your hair?

-It wasn't washing your hair!

So, for 40 points, Marta?

-Was it disco dancing?

-It's not. I enjoyed your disco dancing, though!

-Thank you!

-For 30 points, Amelia?

-Is it cleaning your finger?

-What?!

LAUGHTER I love that answer, but it's not,

so we're playing for 20 points, Natasha?

-Making a pizza?

-Nice thinking, it's not.

So, for the minimum of ten points, Abi?

Spinning a plate on a stick in a circus?

Yey! well done!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING Nice work!

I love that it turned into disco dancing. Well done, guys.

You get yourselves ten points!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Jasmin, which card would you like?

-The green one.

-The green one, have a look at that.

All right, got that in your head?

Best of luck, Jasmin.

Ready, steady, mime. Open the door.

Ooh!

Silent performances, guys, sorry. OK, Becky?

Ooh, Barbara! Go on.

Ooh! Ooh! Go on, Matthew.

Ollie, your turn.

Stop miming!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

For 50 points, Unity?

-Being sick?

-It's being sick, yes!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

It was being sick, and I don't know what you were eating, guys,

but that was pretty, like, ugh!

Congratulations, you get 50 points!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

So, after Mime Time, are Ruth's team having a smashing time?

Good! And is Ollie's team's score in recovery?

Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Mark, after Mime Time, Ruth's team have ten points

'and Ollie's team have 50 points!'

-APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-It's time for Ruth's team to face

the Copycats Challenge.

A chance to get some crucial points.

-Are you ready?

-Yeah.

-They're ready.

-Yeah!

-Ollie's team, off you go, we'll see you later!

-Bye!

-Bye!

-APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-Have some fun.

-Hey, you've got to!

Ruth, as team captain, you need to select

three people to face the Copycats Challenge.

Let's see what's in store for you.

'The Bounce - five shapes will be shown on the screen.

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

Hey, not bad at all.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

It's difficult, isn't it? Well done, you did really well.

There is only one more round before we add in those Challenge points

to find out who'll be playing for the trophy. Give it up for Ruth's team.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Welcome back, Ollie's team, and welcome to the Music Round!

Jasmin, you've got to pick a well-known tune and recreate it

for the player next to you, Unity, on the world-famous Copycats Kazoo.

Everybody except for Jasmin now put your headphones on

so you do not hear which song has been selected.

Our Copycats look ready, let's close the doors!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-Jasmin, three cards.

-Green one.

-Have a look...

-You know that one?

-Mmm...maybe.

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

# The boys and the girls They got it going on

# And when the beat kicks in You feel it in your bones

# And when the basement cracks And the needle drops

# You can't turn back And you just can't stop... #

Great song. Best of luck, Jasmin. Ready, steady, play. Open the door.

SHE REPRODUCES TUNE FAIRLY ACCURATELY

Brilliant. Unity, your turn.

OK, Matthew, your turn.

PLAYS A TUNE NOT RESEMBLING THE ORIGINAL

LAUGHTER

HE STARTS TO LAUGH

Go on, Becky!

Beautiful playing.

HE MOUTHS

Stop playing!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

For 50 points, any idea of the answer I've got on the card?

-Is it Poker Face?

-It isn't Poker Face.

For 40 points, Ollie?

-Price Tag?

-It is not. Open the door, for 30 points, Becky?

-Dancing Queen?

-It is not the correct answer, let's open the door,

-for 20 points...

-Swagger Jagger?

It's not Swagger Jagger. Finally, for ten points,

it was like listening to the song itself, it was so good.

-Is it Boys And Girls by Pixie Lott?

-It is, yeeeey!

-Well done!

-APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

# Feel it in your bones And when the basement cracks... #

That was like listening back to it, it was so good on the kazoo.

You get yourselves ten points. Congratulations, well done.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-OK, two cards left, which would you like?

-The orange one.

-Take a look. You know that song?

-Yeah.

-Awesome.

We are going to play it into the studio, so you can get the melody.

# Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh! California girls we're unforgettable

# Daisy Duke's bikinis on top

# Sun-kissed skin So hot, will melt your popsicle

# Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh... #

Katy Perry, California Girls. Ten seconds, best of luck.

Ready, steady, play.

SHE PLAYS A GOOD RENDITION

Very good.

Very good. Ruth...

Very good.

RHYTHM GOES AWRY

SHE STARTS TO LAUGH

Juan, your turn.

Time's up! Oh, man.

It was going so well!

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

-Single Ladies?

-It's not Single Ladies,

-which means we're playing for 40 points. Juan?

-Angels?

Angels? It's not, which means we're playing for 30 points.

-Katy Perry, Hot And Cold?

-N...no! You're close, but it's not. Ruth?

-California Girls?

-Yeah!

# California girls we're unforgettable

# Daisy Dukes... #

Oh, Abi, you had the right artist but you had the wrong song.

Cracking play by Marta there!

Well done, you get yourselves 20 points.

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

'and Ollie's team have 60 points!'

All right. Not great artists on the show today,

but our teams scored very well in the other pass it on rounds.

We still have to reveal the scores from the Copycats Challenge.

Who beat the bounce, and who has a one-way ticket to the Ball Room?

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

50 points in the challenge. Respectable.

Not bad at all. I can also reveal that one team got...

-110! Wow.

-AUDIENCE WHOOPS

I know. Which means the team going through to the Copycats Ball Room

and playing for the trophy is...

Ollie's team!

Well done! So unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to Ruth's team.

-You've been cracking, have you enjoyed yourselves?

-Yes!

-Awesome.

-Everybody, give it up for Ruth's team!

CHEERING

OK, Ollie's team, you've made it this far.

Time to compete for the fabulous, money can't buy,

limited edition, lovely, shiny, springy thing,

that we are both holding

because it's so heavy, the Copycats Trophy! Aaagh!

Here is the Ball Room. Ollie, who have you chosen to play?

-I've chosen me, Jasmine and Matthew.

-OK. Before we open the doors,

let's take a look at what you have to do to win this. Oh, sorry, mate!

'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

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

ALL: Blast the balls!

'Here we go then, Ollie in there with Jasmine, Ollie's friend,

'and Matthew, Ollie's uncle.

'25 green balls are needed in that scoring cylinder, please.

'Rogue coloured balls will be deducted, remember.

'Got to catch as many of these as you can as quickly as you can.

'They're already stacking up which is good news.

'There we go. Bouncing around the Ball Room.

'Trying to catch as many as they can. 25 seconds left.

'Come on! Quickly, quickly!

'He's juggling with them, ridiculous, come on!

'Come on, Matthew. Let's see those green balls in the scoring cylinder.

'Quickly as you can, come on.

'Concentrate, there's concentration on the face of Jasmine. Come on!

'That's a green one going in, that's good.

'Only a few seconds left. That was a yellow one!'

KLAXON BLARES

Good effort, guys.

Unfortunately, a rogue yellow ball entered that box of green balls.

-Which means...

-Stupid yellow!

Which means we have to deduct this from your final total.

The balls have been counted, the results have been verified.

You needed 25 green balls to win the trophy.

We can reveal that you collected...

Twenty...

seven!

-Victory! Nice work, guys.

-You enjoyed yourselves?

-Yeah!

Give it up for Ollie's team, everyone.

-Nice one. That is the end of the show.

-See you next time on Copycats.

-Chuck it away!

-Bye!
