Episode 44 Copycats

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

'And today's Copycats are

'Naomi's team from Nottingham

'and Niamh's team from County Armagh.'

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

Yes, you could win the ultimate money-can't-buy prize.

Unlike any other game show there is no cash prize,

no luxury holidays to the Caribbean, or even a cuddly toy.

So, what's the point? I hear you ask.

MAN: What's the point?

Thanks.

Today's teams are playing for the improved,

brighter than the sun loveliness

that is the Copycats Trophy.

-AUDIENCE: Wooh!

-Wooh, indeed.

-That's the point.

-Yes.

-Shall we meet the teams?

-Please!

-Let's do it.

First, we've got Niamh's team. How are you doing?

Are you all right?

-Yes.

-Niamh, you want to introduce your team, please?

This is Grainne, my best friend.

And my other best friend Kaitlin, and this is my daddy.

He's called Paddy. And Michelle, my auntie, and my Uncle Darren.

You're captain. What will you bring to the table?

Enthusiasm.

I like that. Enthusiasm. Give it up for Niamh's team, everyone.

APPLAUSE

Here, we've got Naomi's team.

-All right?

-Yeah!

-I like it.

-Naomi, would you introduce everybody?

-This is my cousin Ellie.

This is my friend, Ellen.

This is my Auntie Emma. This is my dad, Carl.

And this is my Uncle Simon.

Are you ready for it?

-Yeah!

-Good. Got any artists in this family?

-Emma.

-So you'll be good on Quick On The Draw.

-Hope so.

The best of luck today. It's Naomi's team, everybody.

APPLAUSE

It looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

Like all games of Copycats, the teams

will copy pictures, actions and displays of musical genius.

To get as many points as possible,

each team will face the Copycats Challenge later.

We tossed a coin, which told us Naomi's team will play first.

Let's play Copycats.

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

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

Naomi, why have you put Auntie Emma first?

She can simplify the drawings and make them obvious.

Excellent answer. That's the best answer we've ever had on Copycats.

Let's hope you've made a right decision.

You'll choose a card.

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

to the person next to you, Carl, and so on, down the line.

There is a maximum of 50 points in this round.

As we pass it back, you lose ten points for every incorrect answer.

-Copycats, are you ready?

-Yeah!

In that case, let's close the doors.

-OK, Emma. Naomi bigged you up, big-time.

-Yeah. Bigged me up.

-OK, we've got three cards. Green, purple or orange?

-I'll go purple.

Purple, take a look.

Reckon you can draw that?

-Give it a go.

-OK.

Best of luck. Ten seconds. Ready, steady, draw.

Very good. A lot of detail. Very good.

Very good. Naomi.

OK!

Ellie, your turn.

Time is up. Stop drawing.

Simon, for 50 points, any idea of the answer?

-I'm hoping it's a traffic light.

-Yeah!

Very good, indeed.

Naomi, you were right putting Emma at the front. Perfect start.

You get yourselves 50 points.

APPLAUSE

Paddy, best of luck.

I've got two cards.

Orange or green. Right on the green!

You reckon you can draw that?

Ready, steady, draw.

Open the door.

Not a lot of time. OK, Niamh, your go.

OK, Michelle, your turn. Get as much detail in as you possibly can.

You've only got ten seconds, remember.

OK, Kaitlin. Come on, ten seconds.

Stop drawing.

All right. OK.

Darren, for a maximum of 50 points,

what's the answer I've got on my card?

-Is it a radio?

-Yeah!

See? Look at that. That is excellent.

You get the maximum 50 points. Congratulations.

APPLAUSE

After Quick On The Draw,

have Naomi's team been given the green light?

Good. And have Niamh's team gone Radio Gaga after that performance?

We've got a radio show, by the way, no big deal.

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

'After Quick On The Draw,

'Naomi's team have 50 points

'and Niamh's team also have 50 points.'

-It's pretty close.

-Couldn't get much closer, mate.

In the next round we'll test our teams' skill, nerve

and determination. Yes, the game just got serious

because this is the Copycats Challenge.

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

My team, so you don't get a sneaky peek, we'll send you away.

Off you go. Bye.

They look really sad to leave. Really sad.

Now, Naomi.

As team captain,

you need three people to face the daunting Copycats Challenge,

but let's see what's in store for you. Mr D, over to you.

'The Tubes. A coloured tube will be displayed on the screen.

'Players must place a ball in the tube and catch it as it exits.

'Ten points are awarded for every successful catch.

'If a player catches a ball from the golden tube,

'they'll score the maximum 150 points, and the challenge will end.'

Ready, steady, roll.

'Ten points for each catch.

'Green one for Carl, Naomi's dad. How will he get on? Not quite.

'On we go to the blue one.

'This is Ellie, cousin Ellie.

'She places the blue one in.

'Does she get there in time? No.

'Next, a yellow one for Emma.

'Auntie Emma. Come on! Yes!

'Good. Carl, this time.

'Oh, it's dropped.

'Never mind. Let's move on.

'White one for Ellie. Come on, Ellie!

'Place it in, and rush to the end and catch it if you can.

'No! It's a black one for Emma.

'Come on, Emma.

'Round you go, come on.

'Catch that. Yes! Excellent.

'Next, it's a blue one for Carl.

'You can do this. No, he can't.

'Next, it's Ellie.

'Put it into the red tube.

'It's quite high, that one.

'You have to be tall. Oh, no!

'Next, it's Emma.

'The green tube. Come on, Em.

'Yes. Excellent.

'Next, it's Carl and the yellow.

'Come on, Carl. Round you go. Good.

'Oh, it's the golden tube.

'Here we go for Ellie.

'Could be over if she gets this.

'Come on. Oh, no. Not quite.

'Right, blue one for Emma.

'Come on, Emma.

'Quickly round and... No! Oh!

'For Carl it's the white tube.

'He places it and races to the end

'and he catches it. Excellent.

'Black for Ellie. Ten seconds left.

'Come on. You dropped it.

'And we go to a white one for Emma.

'Come on, Em.

'Quickly. You can do this.

'Come on. Yes!'

Time is up. Time is up. Wooh!

Well done. Very good.

We will add those points to your total

after the Music Round.

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

The points could make all the difference,

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

Give it up for Naomi's team. Very good.

Let's play Mime Time. Michelle,

I've got three cards. Pick one.

Then you'll have ten seconds to mime

whatever is on that card for the player next to you, Grainne,

and then so on, down the line.

But remember, guys, we are looking for silent performances. OK?

There is a maximum of 50 points to be won.

If you know it, add more detail to help the mime to the end.

As with every pass-it-on game, you lose ten points

for an incorrect answer.

-Copycats, are you ready?

-Yeah!

OK, let's close the doors.

Michelle. Orange, a purple, or a green.

-Which one would you like?

-Purple.

Purple. Have a look at that.

-Yeah?

-Mm-hmm.

-Ha-ha-ha-ha!

OK, the best of luck, Michelle.

Ready, steady, mime. Open the door.

OK. OK, Grainne, ten seconds.

Watch your head!

Darren, watch your head.

OK, watch your head.

OK, stop miming.

I don't know what to make of that.

Paddy, for 50 points, what's the answer?

Putting something in a box?

It isn't putting something in a box. Let's open the door, for 40 points.

Captain Niamh?

-Putting the washing in a basket?

-Wrong, I'm afraid.

-OK, 30 points.

-Packing a suitcase?

It's wrong, I'm afraid, darling.

Let's open the door. 20 points. Darren, come on.

Was it picking flowers, and putting them in a basket?

No, it isn't. I'm afraid.

-OK, finally, Grainne, for ten points.

-Picking up rubbish?

Oh, it wasn't. What are we looking for, Michelle?

Building a brick wall.

Building a brick wall! It was a good mime.

You get no points. But give them a round of applause.

APPLAUSE

-OK, two cards. Green or orange?

-Green, please.

Green, take a look, mate.

-Reckon you can do that?

-I might try that one.

Nice one. Best of luck. You've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, mime.

OK.

Simon, your turn.

Naomi, your turn.

OK, Emma.

Time is up. Stop miming.

OK.

Ellen, for a maximum 50 points. What's the answer?

Shaving?

It's not shaving.

What's the answer we're looking for, for 40 points?

-Washing your face, then.

-It's not washing your face.

Which means we're playing for 30 points. Naomi.

Is it getting ready to go out? Aftershave! Aftershave!

Yeah!

Well done. I like that. Getting ready to go out. Putting aftershave on.

You said it, so you get the points. You get yourselves 30 points.

After Mime Time, have Niamh's team hired a bunch of cowboy builders?

And Naomi's team getting ready for a night out at the Ball Room.

BOTH: AAAARGH!

It's time to find out the scores. Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Sam, after Mime Time, Naomi's team have 80 points,

'and Niamh's team have 50 points.'

It's all to play for.

OK, it's time to get serious, because Niamh's team

must face the Copycats Challenge.

Earlier, Naomi's team built up a pile of points in their challenge,

-but did they do enough? Only time will tell.

-Indeed.

Niamh, it's your chance to add crucial points to your score.

Are you ready?

-Yeah!

-Yeah!

-Yeah!

-"I'm ready."

-Do it!

Naomi's team, we're going to send you off. Go and put your feet up.

Read a magazine. Have something to eat. See you later. Bye!

See you later. The results of the challenge will be revealed at the end

when the extra points determine

which team wins tickets to the Ball Room.

-It's tense, isn't it?

-I can feel it in your shoulders, Mark.

Loosen it up. Loosey Goosey.

Niamh, as captain, you need to select

three people to face the awesome Copycats Challenge,

but before that, you get a look at what we've got in store for you.

Mr D, tell us, will you?

'The Tubes. As before,

'a coloured tube will be displayed on the screen.

'Players must place a ball in the tube and catch it as it exits.

'Ten points are awarded for every catch.

'If a player catches a ball from the golden tube,

'they'll score the maximum 150 points and the challenge will end.'

Three, two, one, let's roll.

'Don't touch the end of the tube.

'We're looking for clean catches.

'Green first for Niamh. Oh, no!

'Not to worry.

'Next, it's blue for Grainne

'Put it in at the end of the tube.

'Very fast. Too fast, really.

'Next it's yellow for Darren.

'Yes! Good man. OK, yellow for Niamh.

'Gently put it in and it gives

'you enough time, you see? Not quite.

'White one for Grainne.

'This is Niamh's best friend.

'Here we go.

'Yes, well done.

'OK, Darren, the black tube.

'Nicely in place. Brilliant.

'Next, it's blue for Niamh.

'Oh, you've dropped it.

'Not to worry. Red for Grainne.'

Come on, Grainne! You can do this!

'There she goes. Is she going to catch this?

'Yeah! Nice and easy.

'Uncle Darren.

'Green for you.

'Yes!

'Next it's yellow for Niamh.

'Put it in then rush round.

-'Not quite.'

-Golden tube!

'Oh, the Golden tube.

'Game over if you catch this,

'and the full 150 points.

'Will she do it? Oh, not quite.

'It's a blue tube for Darren.

'Come on, Darren.

'Darren's good at this. Yes!

'Next, it's Niamh.'

-White!

-'White! It's a white tube.

-'Come on.'

-You can do this!

-'Niamh.

'Round you go. Not quite.

'Grainne, the black one. Come on. We're running out of time!

'Come on, Grainne. Quick, quick!'

Stop, stop!

Come on!

Wow! I'm tired just watching you, there.

You did really, really well.

Only one more round before we add those points to your total,

and we reveal which team will play

for the Copycats Trophy.

I just can't wait. Give it up for Niamh's team, everyone.

APPLAUSE

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

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

and recreate that tune using the now world-famous Copycats Kazoo.

PLAYS SILLY TUNE

A little bit like that.

OK, could everybody, except Naomi, please put your headphones on?

So you don't hear which song's been selected.

Can you hear me? Can you hear me? I don't think they can hear me.

OK, in that case, let's close the doors.

Naomi, I've got three cards. We've got orange, green, or purple?

-Orange.

-Orange. Take a look.

-Do you know that song?

-Yeah.

-Awesome!

We'll play it so you get the melody. Let's hear it.

# I want to break free

# I want to break free

# I want to break free from your lies

# You're so self satisfied I don't need you

# I've got to break free... #

Don't stop it, carry on.

What are you doing? Great tune. The best of luck, Naomi.

Ready, steady, play.

OK.

OK, Ellen, your turn.

Carl.

Simon.

Ha-ha-ha!

Time is up. Stop playing. Stop playing.

Ellie, any ideas, for 50 points?

-Do It Like A Dude?

-It's not, unfortunately. Which means,

we're playing for 40 points. Any idea, mate?

Angels.

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

-It wasn't EastEnders, was it?

-It wasn't EastEnders

Which means we're playing for 20 points. Ellen, any idea?

Shine?

Shine? By Take That? It's not.

OK, which means we're playing for the minimum of 10 points. Any idea?

When The Saints Come Marching In?

A textbook answer here on Copycats. But it's not.

Naomi, do you want to tell everybody?

-I Want To Break Free, by Queen.

-Let's hear it.

# I want to break free

# I want to break free... #

Classic song. Classic song. Quite tough, that one, I must say.

In the Music Round, you don't get any points.

But give them a round of applause.

APPLAUSE

Two cards, here. A green one, a purple one, Which one?

-Purple.

-Purple. Have a look at that.

You know that one? Good.

Let's play it for everybody else.

# I need a dollar, dollar

# Dollar, that's what I need Hey, hey

# Well I need a dollar, dollar

# Dollar, that's what I need Hey, hey

# Said I need a dollar, dollar Dollar, that's what I need

# And if I share with you... #

Don't know the rest of it.

All right, best of luck, Kaitlin. Ready, steady play. Open the doors.

OK, Grainne.

OK, Darren. Your turn.

Paddy, come on.

Stop playing!

OK, Niamh, for a maximum of 50 points.

What's the answer on my card?

-Is it Ridin' Solo?

-It's not, unfortunately.

Let's open the door. OK, for 40 points, Michelle?

What's the answer we're looking for?

Is it a Westlife Song? Flying Without wings?

It's not. Let's open the doors for 30 points. Paddy.

Is it Baby by Justin Bieber?

It is not.

OK, this is where it started to get weird.

All right, Darren, for 20 points.

What are we looking for, mate?

-It isn't Mamma Mia?

-It is not.

-Grainne, I think you know this. What's the answer?

-I Need A Dollar.

Yes, it is. Yeah!

# Well, I need a dollar, dollar

# Dollar, that's what I need Hey, hey... #

Well done! Niamh's team,

you get 10 points. Well done.

'After three rounds,

'Naomi's team have 80 points,

'and Niamh's team have 60 points.'

Both teams scored well in the pass-it-on rounds,

but, and it's a big but...

-Ooh!

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

Which team triumphed over the Tubes?

Which team are doing the cha-cha to the Ball Room?

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

..60 points in the challenge.

And I can reveal that the other team also got 60 points.

Ooh!

Which means the team going through to the Copycats Ball Room

and playing for the trophy is...

..Naomi's team!

CHEERING

Commiserations.

-A great effort from Niamh's team. Have you had a good time?

-Yeah!

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

APPLAUSE

OK, Naomi's team, you have made it this far.

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

limited edition, shiny, springy thing that is this,

the now golden Copycats Trophy.

-ALL: Ooh!

-Here is the Ball Room.

Now, Naomi. Who have you chosen to take part in the Ball Room, and why?

Me, Ellen and Simon because we've got eyes like an eagle

-and move like a hawk.

-Oh!

-Eagle and hawk.

-I like it!

-But you've got the face of a gibbon.

-Thanks(!)

Well, before we open the door,

let's take a look at 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.'

So, if you're ready. In three, two, one, blast the balls!

'Here we go, then. It's Naomi's team.

'Left to right, Ellen, Naomi, Uncle Simon. 25 balls will do it.

'This is to win the now golden Copycats Trophy.

'Now don't forget, you catch.

'You do not pick up from the floor.

'Green balls only. There they go. Into the scoring cylinder.

'He's got lots of balls.

'Any of them green? Yes, one of them. Excellent!

'Well done, Simon. Naomi, what're you doing? The balls are over there.

'In goes another. Quickly as you can. Only green balls will count.

'Any other colour will be deducted.

'25 seconds left, guys, come on. Quickly as you can.

'25 green balls. That's what we're after.

'They're stacking up now, but will this be enough?

'We shall find out in a moment.

'Quickly as you can. Come on. 10 seconds left.

'Another green one going in, well done.

'And another.

-'Come on! Time is running out! Oh!'

-HOOTER BLARES

Simon, I saw you with one of those balls,

it looked like it was really hot.

You were going, "Ah-ah-ah-ah!"

And you caught it and put it in.

The balls have been counted, not once,

-not twice, but thrice.

-Thrice.

The results have been checked and verified.

You needed to get 25 green balls to win the trophy.

However, if you placed any of the other coloured balls

in the container they will have been deducted from your score.

I can reveal that you collected...

..20 green balls.

ALL: Aw!

-No!

-So close.

Unfortunately, you didn't collect enough green balls.

You don't get the trophy,

but we are going to give you some Copycats T-shirts.

-Yeah!

-You enjoyed yourselves?

-Yeah!

-Fantastic. Nice one.

Give it up for Naomi's team, everybody.

APPLAUSE

-Back in the safe.

-Yeah, keep it safe.

Hey, we'll keep it safe for next time.

Thank you for watching.

-We'll see you next time on Copycats.

-Bye!
