Episode 6 Copycats

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

'And today's Copycats are...

'Talia's Team, from Bristol,

'and Adam's Team from Chester.'

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

BOTH: Hello!

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

whether drawing, miming or playing the kazoo.

The better you are, the more points you'll get.

The team with the most points at the end will get the chance

to play for the new and improved, but still bingy-boingy

Copycats Trophy!

CROWD: Oo-oo-ooh!

-Oh, it's so sparkly!

-And it's...

MUSIC: "Gold" by Spandau Ballet

-Yeah, it wasn't gold last year...!

-It wasn't, it wasn't!

-Shall we meet the teams?

-Please!

-Let's do it!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Talia's team, welcome! Are you all right? ALL: Ye-es!

Ya-ay! OK, so Talia, you're team captain.

Introduce the rest of your team, please.

Erm, this is Eden, my friend from school.

This is Neve, my other friend.

-This is my stepdad Craig.

-Hi, Craig.

-My mum, Elli, and Eden's mum, Jenny.

-Nice!

It's lovely to have you here. Now, Talia, any rounds that you think,

"Yeah, we're going to be great at that?"

-Er, all of them!

-All of them, yeah!

That's what we like to hear!

Give it up for Talia's team, everybody.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Yeah! Adam, team captain. Introduce us to the rest of your team.

-This is my friend Ted, from school.

-Ted.

-Er, this is my brother, Mathew.

-Mathew.

-This is Ted's dad, Gary.

-Gary.

-This is my mum, Lisa.

-Lisa.

-And this is my dad, Jason.

-You all look really confident. Are you confident?

-ALL: Yeah!

We're going to find out. The best of luck to you. Adam's team, everyone!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

As with every game of Copycats, the teams take turns

to copy pictures, actions and displays of musical genius.

In order to get as many points as possible,

each team will face the Copycats Challenge later on.

We tossed a coin before the show which told us that

Adam's team are going first. Let's play Copycats!

OK, Adam'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 for you. Pick one of these cards.

You're going to have 10 seconds to draw whatever is on that card

for the next player, which is Lisa. And so on down the line.

There's a maximum of 50 points to be won in this round, but as we pass it

back down the line, you lose 10 points for every wrong answer.

-Copycats, are you ready? You look ready. Yeah?

-ALL: Ye-es!

In that case, let's close the doors.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, Mathew. Purple, orange and green.

-Which one would you like, mate?

-Er, green.

The green! Go for that one, have a look.

Yeah, you reckon you've got that? OK, I'll take that off you.

The best of luck, Mathew. Ready, steady, draw! Open the door.

OK, Mathew. 10 seconds.

Not bad.

OK, Lisa. 10 seconds, not a long time.

Try and get as much detail in there as you can.

Ohhh, interesting.

Ohhh!

Good luck, Ted!

Good luck!

Ha-ha! Stop drawing! Stop drawing!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Gary, for a maximum of 50 points, what is the answer on my card?

-A spaceship?

-Not the answer, unfortunately. Let's open the doors.

-Ted.

-A three-legged spider?

Not what I've got on the card, I'm not going to lie!

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

-Is it an alien?

-It is not an alien.

-Ooh!

For 20 points. OK, what are we looking for?

Is it a millipede?

It's not a millipede. OK...

-let's open the door. Finally...

-Is it a centipede?

-Oh, it is not. OK, what do you think it is?

-A yo-yo?

It is a yo-yo, unfortunately.

We can't give you any points, I'm afraid.

Aww. It's good, see? The yo-yo string at the top.

OK, zero points. Give 'em a round of applause anyway!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, lovely Jenny. Pick a card. We've got orange or purple.

-I'm going to go with purple.

-Take a look.

-OK.

-Reckon you can do that?

-Yeah.

-The best of luck.

-You've got 10 seconds. Ready, steady, draw!

-OK.

Not bad at all. A lot of detail.

Not bad. Elli, your turn.

Talia's nodding her head. Always a good sign.

Nice. Time's up! Stop drawing!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, Craig. For a maximum of 50 points,

-what's the answer we're looking for?

-Caterpillar?

-Ye-e-e-es!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

All right!

And I've got to say, Talia, I love how small your caterpillar is!

I love that! I think it's wicked. That's the perfect start. 50 points!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

So, after Quick On The Draw, are Adam's team saying "Yo-yo-yo"

to the Ball Room?

And have Talia's team turned into a beautiful

butterfly before our very eyes? It's called metamorphosis.

You see, not just an entertainment show. Factual as well!

-Get that down your neck! Mr D, over to you for the scores!

-'OK.'

'Well, Sam, after Quick On The Draw, Talia's team have 50 points,

'and Adam's team have no points!'

Still a long way to go! Now, the next round will test our teams' skill,

nerve and determination.

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

And because my team won the toss, they will go first!

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

we're going to send you off. Go and put your feet up!

Talia's team, everybody!

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

to face the daunting Copycats Challenge.

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

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

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

'10 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.'

Best of luck. In three, two, one...let's roll!

'It's Ted to start us off, then. This is Adam's schoolmate.

'And it's the blue tube.

'He puts it in at that end, you've got to catch it cleanly.

'Oh, he's done it! Brilliant! Next... Jason! This is Adam's dad.

'Yellow tube, puts it in at that end, and he too catches it.

'Next, Adam.

'The white tube. Is he going to catch it? He's there in good time!

'THIS is how to play this game! Next, Ted. The black tube.

'And he's there again in really good time, this is excellent. Jason next!

'The red tube! Come on! Absolutely! He's done it as well!

'Really high scoring, this is excellent!

'Next, in the green tube, it's Adam, he's done that as well!

'Next, Ted, with the white. 46 seconds to go, come on!

'Yes!

'Next, it's Jason. Come on! The green tube.

'See if you can catch this. Yes! Well done!

'It's Adam.

'Go for the yellow one, Adam. Come on.

'Round to the other side and catch it cleanly. Ohh!

'Next, it's the golden tube! Here we go.

'Could be game over if we catch this. Quickly round!

'Oh, not quite! Never mind. Jason next.

'The blue tube, please, if you would, Jason. Puts it in that end.

'Walks almost to the other end, excellent.

'Next, it's Adam. The black tube. Quickly as you can!

'Time's running out, 10 seconds. Ooh, yes!

'Blue next for Ted!

'Might be able to do this. Come on, quickly as you can!

'Yes! Quickly!'

MUSIC PLAYS

APPLAUSE

Come on! Give me some! I am loving your work!

That was fantastic! Remember, we'll add those Challenge points

to your total after the music round.

Talia's team need to face the Copycats Challenge.

The points from these could make all the difference.

cos a dream ticket to the Ball Room is at stake.

Give it up one more time for Adam's team!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Welcome back to the game, Talia's team.

This is Mime Time. I've got three cards. You're going to choose one.

You'll have 10 seconds to mime what's on that card to

the person next to you, which is Jenny, and so on, down the line.

There is a maximum of 50 points, but don't forget,

with every Pass It On game, you will lose 10 points

for every incorrect answer. Copycats, are you ready?

ALL: Yes! Let's close the doors!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, Talia. Here we go, three cards. Orange, purple or green?

-Purple.

-Purple! Take a look.

Reckon you can do that? OK.

Best of luck, you've got 10 seconds. Ready, steady, mime!

Not bad. Jenny, your turn.

OK, Neve. Go for it.

OK, Eden.

THEY LAUGH

Elli, go for it!

LAUGHTER

Time's up! OK...interesting! Interesting.

OK, for the maximum of 50 points. Craig, any idea?

-Does it entail walking a dog?

-Did look like that,

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

Open the door, please. Elli, any idea?

-I thought it was cleaning up dog poop.

-It's not cleaning up dog poo.

So we're playing for 30 points. Open the door, please.

-Eden, any idea?

-Stroking your dog?

It's not stroking your dog, which means we're playing for 20 points.

-Neve.

-Walking a cat!

Ha-ha-ha! I have never walked a cat before.

I like that. Er, it's not walking a cat,

which means we're playing for the minimum of 10 points.

-Jenny, any idea?

-OK, were you sweeping and brushing up?

Oh, no! She wasn't. She did a cracking job.

-Talia, d'you want to tell everybody?

-It's a metal detector!

-Aw-w-w!

Metal detector! That's a tough one, actually. Very tough one.

So you don't get any points, but give 'em a round of applause!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

-OK, we've got green or orange. Which one would you like?

-Green.

You're going to go for green?

-Got it.

-You got that?

You look very confident, Adam. I like that. I like that a lot.

OK, Adam, best of luck!

Ready, steady, mime.

Open the door.

OK, Lisa!

OK, Mathew!

All right, Ted. He's well on his way!

Go on, Gary. Let's see what you've got, mate.

Stop miming! Ha-ha-ha!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Excellent. For 50 points, Jason.

Starting a motorbike?

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Come o-o-o-o-on!

That's why Adam's captain! You've got yourselves the full 50 points!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

All right, so, after Mime Time, have Talia's team struck gold

or have they found something worth less than gold?

Excellent(!) and are Adam's team revving up for the final?

OK, it's now time for those all-important scores.

-Mr D, what could they be?

-'Well, Mark...

'After Mime Time, Talia's team have 50 points

'and Adam's team have 50 points.

I think you'll find that THAT is neck-and-neck!

Indeed! Neck-and-neck! It's time to get serious once again,

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

Now, earlier in the show, Adam's team built up a pile of those

all-important points, but did they do enough? Only time will tell.

Now, Talia, it's your chance to add crucial points to your overall score.

Are you ready? ALL: Yes!

-Awesome!

-All right! Adam's team, time for you to leave.

Off you go, we'll see you later.

See you later!

Good people! Remember, the results of the Challenge will be

revealed at the end of the show. The extra points will determine

which team wins their tickets to the Ball Room. It's so tense!

Now, Talia, as captain, you need to select three people to face

the Challenge, but before that, you're going to get to have

your first look at what's in store for you. Mr D, over to thee!

'The Tubes! As before, a coloured tube will be

'displayed on the screen.

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

'10 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.'

-Best of luck, girls.

-Thank you.

-In three, two, one, let's roll!

'Here we go, then! 10 points for every successful catch.

'Elli to start us off with the blue tube.

'She puts it in at that end, she's got to catch it cleanly. Yes!

'We're off to a good start.

'Next, it's Eden, with the yellow tube. Oh, very nearly!

'She was in place, didn't quite catch it. Next, Neve,

'with the white tube.

'Got to be in play... Straight through, never mind.

'Next time. Elli.

'Can you do it again? You can, with the black tube.

'Well done. Next, it's Eden, with the red tube, right at the top!

'Ohh, so close! Next, it's Neve, with the green tube.

'How's she going to do? Oh, never mind.

'Next, it's Elli. Come on, Elli. You're good at this.

'You can do this. Round you go, in place to catch it. Excellent.

'Next, it's Eden with the green.

'Quickly, catch...ohh! Next, it's Neve, with the yellow!

'Come on, Neve.

'Next, it's the golden tube...all right, Sam! Don't get so excited!

'Here we go. Could be Game Over if she catches this. No-o-o!'

'So close! Next, it's Eden, with the blue tube. Quickly as you can.

'Come on, Ede! Ohh, got to be quicker than that!

'Next, the black tube for Neve! Come on, Neve!

'Ohhh! Never mind, next! Elli! Elli's good at this. Come on.

'The blue tube, round you go. Catch it! Yes, well done.

'Next, the white tube for Eden.

'We're running out of time here, guys!

'Ohhhh! Now, Neve, quickly as you can.

'Quick, quick, quick, on the yellow! Yes!'

Oh, time's up!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, there is only one more round to play before we add those

points to your total, and reveal which team

are going to play for the Copycats trophy.

I don't know about you, but the suspense is killing me.

Give it up for Talia's team, everybody!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Welcome back, Adam's team. OK, this is the Music Round.

All you have to do is pick a well known tune

and then recreate that tune to the person next to you

on the now-world famous, it is world famous, Copycats kazoo!

Do-do-do-do-doo! I'm not going to blow on it, cos it's Lisa's!

OK, everybody now put their headphones on.

Except for Lisa, obviously.

Go on, Ted, I'm watching you. The Copycats are ready.

Let's close the doors!

OK, Lisa. We've got purple, orange or green.

-Which one would you like?

-Orange.

Orange? That is for you.

Do you know that?

-No.

-No? Well, don't worry.

We are going to play it into the studio for everybody else

to get the melody in your head.

MUSIC: "Poison" by Nicole Scherzinger

OK, the best of luck.

Ready, steady, play! Open the door.

KAZOO PARPS

Not bad. OK...

KAZOO PARPS

Good luck, Ted.

KAZOO PARPS

All right, Gary. Come on, mate. Yeah, I know!

KAZOO PARPS

Go on, Jason!

KAZOO PARPS

HE MOUTHS

Stop playing!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Mathew, for a maximum of 50 points what was Jason playing there?

Mamma Mia?

It's wrong I'm afraid. OK, let's open the door.

For 40 points. Jason?

Theme tune to Flintstones?

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

For 30 points, Gary.

-The Muppet Show?

-No.

He's saying no. OK, let's open the door. For 20 points, Ted.

Star Wars theme tune?

Oh, unlucky mate. Unlucky.

OK, let's open the door. Finally, for 10 points...

Don't Stop Believing?

We have to stop believing because it's wrong, I'm afraid.

-Lisa...

-It was Poison. Nicole Scherzinger!

-Yeah!

Let's have a listen. What to say!

MUSIC: "Poison" by Nicole Scherzinger

Of course it was!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Unfortunately, no points, Adam's team.

Give 'em a round of applause!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

OK, Neve. Got two cards, green or purple?

I'll go for green.

Green. Take a look.

-Ooh!

-Ooh! Is that a good "Ooh?" D'you know that tune?

-Yeah.

-Good, wicked! We're going to play it into the studio,

so you can get the melody in your head. Let's hear it!

MUSIC: "Firework" by Katy Perry

Cracking tune, cracking tune! The best of luck, Neve!

You've got 10 seconds. Ready, steady, play!

KAZOO PARPS

OK, Eden, go!

KAZOO PARPS

Brilliant! Jenny.

KAZOO PARPS

Very good. Talia.

KAZOO PARPS

Excellent! Craig.

KAZOO PARPS

Time is up! OK!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Elli, any idea? For 50 points, the answer.

Err...The Beach Boys?

We do need a song title, but you've got the wrong band,

-so I'm going to move on.

-Sorry.

Er, OK, we're playing for 40 points. Craig, any idea?

-It's Firework.

-Ye-e-e-eah!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Well done, you get yourselves 40 points!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

'Right, so after three rounds, Talia's team have 90 points,

'and Adam's team have 50 points.'

All right, we had a maximum score in Quick On The Draw,

another in Mime Time, and a great score in the Music Round to finish,

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

Which team triumphed over The Tubes,

and which team are going cha-cha-cha to the Ball Room?

-Nobody's doing that!

-Don't do that.

-The wait is over.

I can reveal that one team got 50 points in the Challenge.

I can also reveal that one team got 110 points.

CROWD: Woo-ooo!

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

and playing for the trophy is...

Adam's team!

Well done, Adam's team!

Unlucky! Talia's team, you were brilliant in the cubicles!

-You were brilliant there.

-You smashed the Pass It On rounds.

Have you enjoyed yourselves? Ya-ay!

Give it up for Talia's team, everyone! They've been brilliant!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

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

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

limited edition, lovely shiny springy thing, and not forgetting gold...!

-It's really gold.

-It's this, the Copycats Trophy!

Here it is, the Ball Room! Hah!

CROWD: Oo-ooh!

-Ooh, indeed. Ooh, indeed.

-It deserves an "Ooh," actually!

Adam, who have you chosen to play the Ball Room, and why? Tell us.

-Erm, myself, my brother Mathew, and Ted's dad, Gary.

-Nice!

Nice work, all right. Good luck to you.

But before we open the doors, let's look at what you have to do

to win this. It's gold!

'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!'

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

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

BOTH: Blast the balls!

'Here we go, then. This is Gary, Adam and Mathew. Adam's team.

'We need 25 green balls into the scoring cylinder, if you please.

'Gary, don't just stand there. What are you doing?!

'You're supposed to be catching the balls, remember!

'Green ones only, if you would.

'Well done, Adam and Mathew. They're really going for it.

'As many of the green balls as you can, into the scoring cylinder.

'How many have we got? Two or three already.

'And another one going in. Well done, Gary.

'And the next. Which is it going to be? Come on.

'Who's going to catch the next one? And another one goes in.

'We need more than that, though, guys!

'Less than 20 seconds now, come on, here we go!

'No wrongly coloured balls, got to be the green ones only.

'We need more than that. Time's running out!

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

'There's another one going in, but is it enough?

'We're about to find out! Quickly!'

HOOTER SOUNDS

Whoa, whoa! Adam, you were all over that!

-You were all over the Ball Room there.

-Like a ninja!

The balls have been counted. the result has been checked

and verified. You needed 25 green balls to win the trophy.

I can reveal...

that you collected...

15 green balls!

Unfortunately, that means you're not going to get your hands on

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

THEY CHEER Every cloud! Every cloud!

-And this is going back in the safe!

-Big time.

Give it up for Adam's team, everybody!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

It's the end of the show. Thank you very much for watching.

-We'll see you next time on Copycats!

-Bye!
