Episode 42 Copycats

.

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

'And today's Copycats are...

'Kiera's team from Cheshire

'and Rebecca's team from Bedford.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-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 get.

-You know I've been having kazoo lessons?

-Mm.

-I'm so good,

-I can play any song you want.

-Really?

-Yeah.

-Name a song.

-OK. What about Greatest Day by Take That?

It's a classic!

-RECORDING:

-# Today, this could be

# The greatest day of our lives... #

Wow! Wow! You're really good at this, aren't you, Mark?

MUSIC STOPS

-Yeah, REALLY good.

-OK, OK, let's test you even more.

-What about Price Tag by Jessie J?

-Er, easy!

# It's not about the money, money, money

# We don't need your money, money, money

# We just wanna make the world dance... #

You must think I were born yesterday. MUSIC STOPS

Worst gag in the world. Let's meet the teams.

OK. Over here we've got Kiera's team! Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Kiera, team captain, introduce the gang for us.

OK. This is Emmie, my best friend from dancing.

This is Poppy, my other friend from dancing. This is Wayne, Poppy's dad.

This is Andy, my dad, and this is Leonie, my dance teacher.

-Are you going to win this for me? ALL:

-Oh, yes!

Well, the best of luck for today. It's Kiera's team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Rebecca, team captain, introduce the rest of the gang, please.

This is Bethan, my friend. This is Ben, my brother.

This is Claire, my mum.

This is Murray, my dad, and this is Steve, who's my stepdad.

-Well, it's lovely to have you here. Are you excited?

-ALL:

-Yes!

-Are you going to win it for me, please?

-ALL:

-Yes!

That's all I want to know. Give it up for Rebecca's team, everyone!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right! I like it! It looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

As with every game, the teams will take 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 later on, and the chance to win...

the Copycats trophy!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Oh, yeah!

-Yeah. We tossed a coin before the show, which told us

Kiera's team are going to be playing first. Let's play Copycats.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

because it's time to play Quick On The Draw. I've got three cards.

Andy, you're going to pick one.

You'll have ten seconds to draw what's on that card

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

There's 50 points to be won in this round

but as we pass it back down the line, you'll lose

ten points for every incorrect answer.

-Copycats, are you ready?

-Oh, yes!

-Oh, yeah! Let's close the doors!

-OK, Andy, which card would you like?

-I'd like the orange one.

The orange one. Take a look.

-Thank you.

-You've got ten seconds. Best of luck. Ready, steady, draw.

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

OK. Mind the door!

All right, Wayne. Your turn.

OK, Leonie, your turn.

Time's up. Stop drawing!

OK. HE CHUCKLES

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

-Is it an alien?

-It does look like that.

It's not an alien, though, so we're playing for 40 points.

-Leonie, what do you reckon?

-A centipede?

A centipede? It's not,

so we're playing for 30 points. Wayne, any idea?

Space rocket or something.

A space rocket. It's not, so we're playing for 20 points.

-Poppy?

-Is it a ladybird?

It's not a ladybird.

We're playing for the minimum of ten points.

It's quite a difficult one, this. Kiera, any idea?

-It looks like a TV.

-A TV?

-Yeah, but a weird one.

-A weird TV!

That's not the answer. Andy, do you want to tell everybody?

-It was drums.

-Drums! Oh! Great drawing, Andy.

That means you don't get any points in this round.

But don't worry - there's plenty of time. Give them a round of applause.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Murray, we've got two cards left, mate. Which one would you like?

-Er...this one, please, Mark.

-OK, no worries. Have a look at that.

-OK.

-Think you've got that?

-Got it.

-All right.

Best of luck, Murray.

Ready, steady, draw. Off you go.

Ben.

OK, Rebecca.

Ooh, interesting!

Best of luck, Steve.

Stop cooking!

Sorry, wrong show! Stop drawing. All right. Best of luck, Claire.

Any idea the answer we're looking for, for 50 points?

-It looks like a pair of glasses.

-That's exactly what it looks like,

but it's not what we've got on the card, unfortunately.

Let's open the door. For 40 points, Steve?

What's Bethan drawn there?

-Somebody lying on a bed?

-I see where you're coming from. It's not.

Let's open the door. For 30 points, Bethan? Look at Rebecca's drawing.

Is it...binoculars?

It's not binoculars. Great guess, though. Let's open the door.

-20 points.

-Bowls?

It's not, I'm afraid. Let's open the door.

For ten points...

Some type of cake?

It is not some kind of cake. Murray...go on, tell us.

-It's weighing scales for food.

-Look! Look! Of course it is!

How could you not get it from that great drawing?!

-Thanks, Mark.

-No worries, Murray.

You don't get any points, but give them a round of applause. Great fun.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right. So, after Quick On The Draw,

have Kiera's team missed a beat?

Have Rebecca's team spent too long weighing up the opposition?

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

'Well, Mark, after Quick On The Draw, Kiera's team have no points

'and Rebecca's team also have no points.'

Embrace the nothingness. Embrace it!

OK, the next round will test

our teams' skill, nerve and determination.

Yes, the game just got serious.

Stop laughing - it's serious! This is the Copycats Challenge.

Now, because my team won the toss, they will go first.

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

we are sending you away but you are going to be coming back.

Say goodbye to Rebecca's team, everyone. Bye!

-OK.

-Nice. Kiera, as team captain, you now need to select

three people to face the formidable Copycats Challenge.

Stop laughing - it's serious!

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

Mr D, what could it be? Stop laughing!

'The Rings. Players will be given three rings.

'They must throw all three at the corresponding coloured rod

'displayed on the screen.

'Ten points are awarded for every successful throw.'

OK, good luck, team. In three, two, one... Throw!

'So, they each have three rings to throw.

'Team captain Kiera to start, aiming at the green rod.

'See how she gets on.

'Not quite. OK. Just gauging the distance.

'Andy next. That's Kiera's dad, aiming for the white one.

'No luck there. OK.

'This is Kiera's dance teacher Leonie, aiming for the blue one.

'Just hit the rod. And the next one. No, didn't quite reach.

'Red next, for Kiera.

'Come on, Kiera. Right in the middle there. And the third one.

'Aww! OK. This is Andy, aiming for the yellow.

'Come on, Andy. Ho-ho-ho.

'Blue for Leonie.

'Right on the far side there. It's a tricky one.

'Not to worry. OK, white for Kiera. Come on, Kiera.

'Red next, for Andy. Come on, Andy.

'Yes! Our first one. And another.

'Three! Brilliant.

'Leonie next. The green.

'Yellow one. It's for Kiera. Well done.

'It's another one. Excellent!

'Andy, try your hand at the white.

'Yes! And another. This is very good.

'Leonie. Green for you, Leonie. Come on.

'It's really near to you, this one.

'And the third one. It's there.

'Brilliant! Running out of time - couple of seconds. Come on, Kiera.'

Time's up, time's up!

Well done, guys. Well done.

Started off slow, but you properly got into it, at the end. Nice one.

We will add those points to your total after the Music Round.

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

The points from the challenge could make all the difference -

a dream ticket to the Ball Room is at stake. Give it up for Kiera's team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Welcome back to the game, Rebecca's team. This is Mime Time.

Ben, I've got three cards in my hand. You're going to pick one card.

You have ten seconds to mime what's on it for the player next to you,

which is Murray, and then so on down the line.

50 points are up for grabs but don't forget -

you will lose ten of those points for every incorrect answer.

-You ready?

-ALL: Yes!

-All right. Let's close the doors.

OK, Ben, I've got three cards here. Which one would you like?

-The green one, please.

-OK, have a look at that, mate.

-You got that?

-Yep.

The best of luck, Ben. Ready, steady, mime. Off you go.

OK, Bethan.

Rebecca, your turn.

Claire, your turn.

Stop miming!

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

-Is it birthday cake?

-It is not birthday cake.

You have to be very specific.

For 40 points, Claire, what's the answer I've got on the card?

It's blowing the candles out on your birthday cake and then eating it.

Yay!

It was "blowing out candles", but if you want to stick

a birthday cake in there, why not?

Hey, I'm happy with that. You get 40 points. Well done.

OK, Kiera, we've got two cards left. Which one would you like?

-Er...purple.

-Purple one - take a look.

-Reckon you can do that?

-Yeah.

-Nice.

I like that confident look on your face.

You've got ten seconds. The best of luck. Ready, steady, mime.

Very good. Emmie, your turn.

It's good. Leonie.

Nice. Poppy, your turn.

OK, Andy, your turn.

Time's up - stop miming. Very good. Very good.

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

He's a weightlifter, lifting weights.

Yes! Good man!

Well done. Well done, guys. You get yourselves the full 50 points.

All right. After Mime Time,

have Rebecca's team BLOWN OUT the opposition?

-And Kiera's team can't WEIGHT...

-Oh, good.

-..to get to the Ball Room.

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

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

'and Rebecca's team have 40 points.'

-Ooh!

-Interesting!

-Ooh!

-All right!

-Ooh!

-Come on!

-Sorry. It's time to get serious again. Rebecca's team

are about to face the Copycats Challenge.

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

-Are you ready?

-Yeah!

-Ah, yes.

-Good!

-Now, Kiera, it's your time to leave!

Sorry - that sounded really rude. We'll see you later -

don't worry about it. Bye!

-Get out of here!

-"It's your time to leave!"

-Sick of the sight of you!

Come back! Now, Rebecca, as team captain,

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

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

'The Rings. As before,

'players will be given three rings. They must throw all three

'at the corresponding coloured rod displayed on the screen.

'Ten points are awarded for every successful throw.'

OK, guys, best of luck. If you're ready, in three, two, one... Throw!

'So it's Rebecca's stepdad to start, Steve, on the green.

'Right next to him. Second didn't work - what about the third? Yes!

'Good. Ten points for every successful throw, remember.

'Next, Rebecca's friend Bethan on the white.

'Try the third one.

'Yes! That one's worked. This is good.

Rebecca's mum Claire, on the blue.

'It's quite a way away, the blue one. Try again. There we go.

'Not quite. OK. Steve, red, please, in the middle.

'Judging the distance. And he's got it - brilliant! Next...Bethan.

'The yellow. Try the third one. OK, Claire, blue for you.

'Right on the far side. Just got to gauge that distance.

'Didn't quite work, though. OK, Steve, white, please.

-Ooh! Come on. Oh!

-'Some of the noises Mark's making!

'OK. Let's try red, then, Bethan.

'Come on.

'Will it be this one? No.

'OK. Claire. It's green, look.

'Yes! Excellent.

'And again. Very close.

'OK, Steve. You're aiming at the yellow one.

'Second one.

'Not quite. Hit the rod. Next?

'No. All right, not to worry. Bethan, on the white.

'Oh, come on. Just gauge it. Very close. We're running out of time.

It's tough, it is. It's really tough. Only one more round to play

before we add those challenge points to your total and reveal which team

will play for the Copycats trophy. Give it up for Rebecca's team.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Welcome back, Kiera's team. This is the Music Round.

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

then recreate it using the now world-famous Copycats kazoo.

Everybody else 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.

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

-Er, I'll go for the orange, please.

-Take a look.

-OK.

-Yep.

-You know that tune?

-Yep.

Awesome! We will play it into the studio, so have a listen,

get the melody in your head. Let's hear it.

# I don't need a parachute

# Baby, if I got you

# Baby, if I got you... #

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

Not bad, not bad. Andy.

OK, Emmie.

OK, Wayne! HE CHUCKLES

Poppy, your turn.

Stop the madness! Stop the madness!

Ooh, it's a tough one.

Kiera, for 50 points, what do you think the answer is?

-Set Fire To The Rain by Adele?

-It's not Set Fire To The Rain by Adele.

-We're playing for 40 points, Poppy.

-Nobody's Perfect by Jessie J?

It's not, which means we're playing for 30 points. Wayne, any idea?

-Bruno Mars, I'd... Grenade For You.

-Bruno Mars?

It's not, unfortunately, which means we're playing for 20 points, Emmie.

Is it Teenage Dream?

It's not, so we're playing for the minimum of ten points.

It's a difficult one. Leonie did a cracking job. Andy, any idea?

Is it Poker Face by Lady Gaga?

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

-Parachute, by Cheryl Cole.

Let's hear it.

# I don't need no parachute... #

Tough one, that. Really tough one.

# Baby if I got you... #

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

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Lovely Rebecca, I've got two cards. Which would you like?

-Purple one, please.

-OK. Have a look at that.

OK, yeah.

-You know that one?

-Ish.

-Kind of.

We are going to play it so you can get the melody into your head.

Have a listen to this classic.

# If you change your mind

# I'm the first in line

# Honey, I'm still free

# Take a chance on me... #

Got it in your head? All right, the best of luck, Rebecca.

Ready, steady, play.

Well done.

Go on, Ben.

Stop playing!

For the maximum 50 points, Murray, any idea?

Was that Set Fire To The Rain, Mark?

It was not Set Fire To The Rain. Unlucky. OK, let's open the door.

For 40 points, Steve, any idea what Ben was playing there?

Was it Thinking Of You?

It wasn't. Good song, though.

OK, let's open the door. For 30 points, Ben?

Was it, er, the Star Wars theme tune?

It wasn't the Star Wars theme tune. Good guess. Let's open the door.

-For 20 points, Bethan?

-Er...California King Bed?

No, by Rihanna? No, it's not.

So we're playing for the minimum of ten points.

-Claire, Rebecca did a great job.

-Mamma Mia?

Oh, it is not Mamma Mia.

Oh, the audience are going, "No, aww!" Rebecca, tell us.

-Take A Chance On Me.

-Have a listen!

# ..change your mind

# I'm the first in line

# Honey, I'm still free. #

The was brilliant playing! Unlucky.

You get no points, but give them a round of applause.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

'and Rebecca's team have 40 points.'

I've got to say, guys, great acting from both teams.

Not the best musicians or artists, though.

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

Which team racked up the rings, and which team are on

the guest list for the Ball Room? Sam.

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

-40 points in the challenge.

-Not bad, not bad.

I can also reveal that one team got...

-60 points. AUDIENCE:

-Ooh!

Yeah! Which means the team going through to the Ball Room

and playing for the Copycats trophy is...

..Kiera's team!

Well done, guys.

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

-You've been fantastic. Have you enjoyed yourselves?

-Yes!

You've been awesome. Give it up once more for Rebecca's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

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

limited-edition, lovely, shiny, springy thing

that is the Copycats trophy!

Oh, yeah. We usually give away a family holiday

but we know how much you wanted this, so...

Kiera...here is...

the Ball Room.

-Who have you chosen to play?

-I've chosen Emmie, Poppy and Wayne.

-OK.

Before we open the doors,

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 will be deducted from the total. Good luck!

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

-BOTH:

-Blast the balls!

'Here we go, then. Representing Kiera's team in the Ball Room

are Wayne, Poppy's dad, and Kiera's friends from dancing,

'Emmie and Poppy.

'25 green balls will win you the bingy-boingy Copycats trophy, guys.

'Quickly as you can. Now, did I see...a red ball go in there?

'And an orange one? Surely not!

'25 seconds. Any rogue-coloured balls... Yes, I did, look!

'Any rogue-coloured balls will be deducted.

'That's the green colour that we need going in there.

'Come on, quickly as you can.

'Lots of encouragement, lots of applause,

'but those rogue-coloured balls will not count.

'They will, in fact, be deducted. Come on, quickly as you can.

'Faster, faster, faster.

'Time's up!'

KLAXON BLARES

Good effort, guys. Unfortunately, two rogue balls went in there.

We have to deduct that from your final total.

Get away from me, rogue balls. The rest of 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...

24 green balls.

Oh, guys!

-BOTH:

-I'm so sorry.

That means you're not going to get the Copycats trophy,

but we'll give you some Copycats T-shirts.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

Give it up for Kiera's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

I can't believe it!

-What, mate? What?

-It's the end of the show.

-Shut up!

-Shut up! I know.

Hey, I know. We'll see you next time, though, on Copycats. Bye!
