Episode 9 Copycats

.

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

'And today's Copycats are

'Jessica's team from Wrexham

'and Lewis's team from Midlothian.

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

Yes, Copycats is the only game show

where we actually encourage you to copy each other to gain fame,

fortune, but more importantly,

the greatest prize in game-show history.

Yes, you can forget the Mastermind trophy,

going into business with Lord Sugar,

even a recording contract with Simon Cowell

because we have the prize that everyone wants.

-£1 million.

-Not that.

It's the bingy-boingy Copycats trophy!

-Hey, that's better than a million pounds.

-Yeah.

Shall we meet the teams? Yeah!

First off, we've got Lewis, team captain.

do you want to introduce the rest of your team, mate?

This is my best friend, Gabriel.

My little brother, Cameron. My big sister, Jennifer.

My big brother, Ross, and this is my mum, Jacqui.

Lewis's team, I can see it in your eyes. There's an intensity here.

-Are you up for the challenge?

-Yes.

-Are you going to win it for me?

-Yeah.

-Bring it on, come on. Give it up for Lewis's team.

Fighting talk over there but over here we have Jessica's team.

-Are you all alright?

-Yeah!

-Jessica, introduce the rest of the gang.

-This is Courtney.

-Hey.

-This is Sophie.

-Hi.

-These are my best mates.

-Nice.

-This is Katie.

-Hi.

-This is my sister.

This is Sara, without a H, and it's Sophie's mum.

-This is Sarah, with a H and this is Courtney's mum.

-Excellent.

-Well introduced, I like that. Katie, is it your birthday today?

-It is.

Happy birthday, Katie!

APPLAUSE

I reckon we've already got some luck. It's Katie's birthday,

you introduced everybody well,

-Are you going to win it for me today?

-Yeah!

Give it up for Jessica's team.

APPLAUSE

It looks like our teams are ready to start copying.

As with every game, our teams will take it in turns to copy pictures,

actions and displays of musical genius.

In order to get as many points as possible, each team take it in turns

-to face the Copycats challenge.

-We tossed a coin before the show

which told us Lewis's team are going to play first. Let's play Copycats.

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

because it's time to play Quick on the Draw.

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

You will then have 10 seconds to draw what is

on the card for the player next to you, Jacqui,

then so on down the line.

There's a maximum of 50 points to be won and as we pass it back down,

you lose 10 points for every incorrect answer.

-Copycats, are you ready?

-Yes!

-OK, let's close the doors.

Cameron, I've got three cards here.

Green, orange or purple, which one would you like?

-Purple.

-Have a look at that, mate.

-Got that in your head?

-Yeah.

-The best of luck, Cameron.

Ready, steady, draw.

Jacqui, ten seconds. Try to get as much detail in there as possible.

Gabe, your turn.

Time to spare. There we go. Go on, Ross.

Your go, Lewis.

Ok, stop drawing. You did about five minutes ago to be fair.

Ok, Jennifer, the maximum of 50 points.

Any idea what you think Lewis has drawn there?

A weight?

Like a gym weight?

Yes!

Wow.

No disrespect to anybody

but that is not the first thing that comes into my head when I see that.

That's fantastic.

You played a blinder putting Cameron in the first booth.

That means that Lewis's team, you get the full 50 points. Well done!

What a start.

The lovely Sara. We've got two cards left, which one would you like?

-The orange, please.

-Take a look.

-Ok.

-Reckon you can draw that?

-I think so.

-The best of luck.

You've got 10 seconds - ready, steady, draw.

Very good, Sara. Your turn.

Courtney's nodding, always a good sign.

There you go, now your time starts.

Your turn.

Time to spare, Jessica. Go.

Time's up, stop drawing!

Katie, for a maximum of 50 points, what's the answer we're looking for?

I want to say a mushroom.

It does look like a mushroom but that's not

the answer which means we're playing for 40 points. Jessica.

-Is it a bat?

-It's not a bat.

Which means we're playing for 30 points, Sophie.

A thermostat thing. Temperature thing.

Yeah, it's a thermometer. Yay!

Well done, guys, you get yourselves 30 points.

So, after Quick on the Draw,

are Lewis's team weighing up the opposition?

And are Jessica's team turning up the heat

in this pressure cooker we call Copycats?

Let's find out the. Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Sam, after Quick on the Draw,

'Jessica's team have 30 points and Lewis's team have 50 points.'

The next round will test our teams' skill, nerve and determination.

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

My team won the toss and will be going first.

My team, so you don't get a peek of what's in store,

we're going to send you off. Don't worry, you will be coming back.

Go and get yourself some juice, a cup of tea, coffee - see later. Bye!

I'll get me some of those boots. Amazing.

Lewis, as team captain, you now need to select three people

to face the Copycats challenge, but before you do, let's find out

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 must remove the corresponding rod

'while trying to avoid any of the balls dropping.

'10 points are awarded for every rod pulled out, but 10 points

'will be deducted for any ball that falls.'

The best of luck. If you're ready then three, two, one - pull!

'Lewis's big brother Ross gets us under way. Yellow rod to start with.

'Well done!

'Next, team captain, Lewis. Black, very quickly done.

'Lewis's little brother, Cameron.

'Yeah, well done, excellent.

'Back to Ross. Red. "Hurry, hurry," says one of the team members.

'And they're doing quite well, this is good.

'Black for Lewis.

'Oh, that was very clever.

'Next, Cameron, yellow.

'Well done. Another yellow, this time for Ross.

'Think about this.

'You can touch the end of the rod but once you start that move,

'you have to complete it. Well done. Red for Lewis.

'Careful, couple of balls have fallen.

'10 points deducted each time a ball drops. Easy, easy - well done.

-'Yellow now for Ross.'

-Not that one, not that one!

'Plenty of advice being offered. Yes, look at that.

'Scoring really well here. Come on. Easy does it.

'Well done!

'Cameron, red. 15 seconds left. Come on, quickly.

'Yes, Ross offering the advice

'and good advice it was too. Brilliant.

'Can we do one more? Can we get one more in?'

That was brilliantly executed.

That's the way to play that game, definitely.

We'll add those points to your score after the music round.

Jessica's team still need to face the Copycats challenge.

The points from it could make all the difference

because a dream ticket to the ballroom is at stake.

Give it up for Lewis's team, everyone. Brilliant.

Welcome pack to the game, Jessica's team. Let's play Mime Time.

I've got three cards, you're going to pick one.

You will then have 10 seconds to mime what is on that card

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

Remember, we're looking for silent performances. As with all

Pass It On rounds, 50 points are up for grabs but don't forget,

you'll lose 10 points for every wrong answer

-going back down the line. Do you understand?

-Yes.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Sounds awesome.

Let's close the doors.

-Jessica, pick a card.

-Purple.

-Take a look.

-Thank you.

-Reckon you can do that?

-I reckon.

-Nice, confident, I like it.

You've got 10 seconds. The best of luck - ready, steady, mime.

Nice work, Katie.

Courtney's looking confident.

Sarah, go for it.

Time to spare. Time's up, OK.

Good copying. Sarah, I reckon

you're going to get this for a maximum of 50 points.

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

-Putting earrings in and out.

-Yes!

Well done, guys. That was good. Great copying down the line,

great acting, great mining. You get yourselves the full 50 points.

Very good.

Lewis, you have got two cards left. Which one would you like?

-I'll take the green one.

-Okay, have a look at that.

-Got that in your head?

-OK.

-Excellent. Ready, steady, mime.

Ross, your turn.

Gabe, your turn.

Jennifer, your turn.

Good copying.

Cameron.

Ok, stop miming.

For a maximum of 50 points, any idea?

-Was it making a sandwich?

-Yes!

Right call to put Lewis, the captain, in the first booth.

50 points, everyone. Give them a round of applause.

APPLAUSE

So, after Mime Time, will Jessica's team be wearing earrings

fit for a Queen to the ballroom or fit for Pat Butcher?

Have Lewis's team bitten off more than they can chew?

It's time to find out the all-important scores.

Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Mark, after Mime Time, Jessica's team have 80 points

'and Louis's team have 100 points.'

-A high-scoring show so far.

-I like it.

It's time to get serious once again because Jessica's team

are about to face the Copycats challenge.

Jessica, it's your chance to add some crucial points to your overall score.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-They're ready.

-Alright, Lewis's team, it's time for you to leave

but you are coming back. Say goodbye to Lewis's team for the time being.

-She's off already!

-See you later.

-Jacqui, she's gone.

-She wants to have a sit down. Don't blame her.

Brilliant.

Now, Jessica, you need to select three people to face

the awesome Copycats challenge, but before that,

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 must remove the corresponding rod while trying

'to avoid any of the balls dropping.

'10 points are awarded for every rod pulled out

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

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

'It's Sophie's mum, Sarah, to start. A yellow rod to be removed.

'Well done. Next, team captain, Jessica. Black.

'That one looks safe or does it? Check the others.

'Don't want any of these balls to drop. Well done.

'Next, red for Sophie.

'Very good, well spotted. Next, Sarah.

'Another red one. Quite a few of them there.

'Got to make sure, though, none of the balls drops.

'Easy does it. Easy, easy. Good, good, good.

'Next, black for Jessica.

'She runs all the way around. Which one is she going to choose?

'Lots of advice being offered. Gently does it.

'Well done. Yellow next for Sophie. Smiling Sophie.

'Yes, every reason to smile.

'Next, another yellow one, this time for Sarah. Does that superbly.

'They are doing well here, look at this. Jessica. A red one.

'You see, you've got to be careful.

'You don't want any of those balls to drop.

'Gently, they're moving.

'Yeah, beautiful. Next. Sophie, black.

'Come on, time's running out. Quickly as you can. Come on.

-'We need another of these rods.'

-Time's up!

-Nice work.

-Very well done.

-there's only one more round to play

before we add those challenge points to your total and reveal

which team are going to play for the Copycats trophy.

Give it up for Jessica's team!

Welcome back, Lewis's team. This is the music round.

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

and then recreate that tune for the player next to you using

what you've got in your hand - the Copycats kazoo.

Could everybody except for Gabe now put your headphones on

so you do not hear what song is being selected. Thank you.

Our Copycats are ready, let's close the doors.

Gabe, three cards in my hand. Which one would you like?

-I'd like the purple one, please.

-Purple, have a look at that.

-Ok, yeah.

-You know that one?

-I know that one.

We are going to play it into the studio, have a listen to this.

# I want your love and I want your revenge

# You and me could write a bad romance

# I want your love and all your lovers' revenge

# You and me could write a bad romance... #

Best of luck. Ready, steady, play, open the door.

HE PLAYS "BAD ROMANCE"

OK, Lewis.

HE PLAYS "BAD ROMANCE"

OK.

SHE PLAYS "BAD ROMANCE" BADLY

OK, Jenifer.

SHE PLAYS "BAD ROMANCE" ACCURATELY

OK, Cameron.

HE PLAYS "BAD ROMANCE"

Stop playing!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Fantastic copying down the line, a very musical team,

but for the maximum 50 points, Ross, what am I looking for?

Is it Judas?

It's not Judas by Lady Gaga, let's open the door.

-40 points, come on.

-Is it Don't Stop Believing?

It is not. Let's open the door,

Jenifer, you played this brilliantly.

-Bad Romance?

-Yes!

# I want your love and I want your revenge... #

Well done. All right!

Love a bit of Lady Gaga here on Copycats, we do.

You did really, really well there, congratulations,

you get 30 points, nice work, well done.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Two cards left, which one would you like?

-Orange.

-Take a look.

-Do you know that song?

-Yeah.

Awesome, we are going to play it into the studio, let's listen.

# But I set fire to the rain

# Watch it pour as I touched your face

# Well, it burned while I cried

# Cos I heard it screaming out your name. #

Ready, steady, play.

SHE PLAYS "SET FIRE TO THE RAIN"

It was good, it was good.

SHE PLAYS RANDOM TUNE

SHE LAUGHS

Courtney, your turn.

SHE PLAYS RANDOM TUNE

OK, Sarah.

SHE HUMS RANDOM TUNE

AUDIENCE LAUGHS

Sarah, go for it.

SHE PLAYS "BAD BOYS" BY ALEXANDRA BURKE

Times up, stop playing!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

Is that Bad Boys?

That was Bad Boys, but that's not the answer we're looking for,

which means we're playing for 40 points, Sarah.

I know it, it just don't know the name of the song.

Nice rendition of bad boys, by the way, very good.

Let Me Entertain You by Robbie Williams?

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

-Swagger Jagger?

-It's not Swagger Jagger.

We're playing for 20 points, Courtney.

I'm So Excited?

I know you are, you're on Copycats, but what's your answer?

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

-I've got to say, Sophie did a good job, Katie?

-I'm so bad!

I don't know!

-Take a wild guess.

-Firework?

It's not Firework by Katy Perry. Do you want to tell everybody?

-Adele, Set Fire To The Rain.

-Let's hear it.

# But I set fire to the rain

# Watched it pour as I touched your face

# Well, it burned while I cried... #

That was a tough one

and it did have "fire" in the title, so you were a close with Firework.

-Can I have the points?

-You can't, unfortunately!

You don't get any points in the music round,

but give them a round of applause.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

'OK, so after three rounds, Jessica's team have 80 points,

'and Lewis' team have 130 points.'

OK, really high scores in the Pass It On round,

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

Which team destroyed the drop - kick it, yeah! -

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

The wait is over.

I can reveal that one team got 80 points in the Challenge,

and I can also reveal that one team got 100 points.

AUDIENCE: Oooh!

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

and playing for the trophy is...

Lewis' team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Congratulations, guys.

Unfortunately, that means we have to say goodbye to Jessica's team.

-Have you had a good time?

-Yeah.

Good, you've been awesome. Give it up for Jessica's team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well done to Lewis' team, are you up for one more Copycats Challenge?

-Yeah!

-Awesome. Ball Room, here we come, let's do this.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Lewis' team, congratulations, you've made it this far,

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

limited-edition, lovely, shiny, springy thing that is this,

the Copycats trophy!

AUDIENCE: Oooh!

Here is the Ball Room.

Lewis, who have you chosen to play the Ball Room?

-Myself, Gabriel and Ross.

-All right.

Before we open the doors,

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.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Good luck, guys. If you're ready, in three, two, one, blast the balls!

'Left to right, it's Lewis, team captain,

'Gabriel - Gabe - Lewis' best friend,

'and then Ross, Lewis' big brother.

'Come on, guys, as quickly as you can, 25 green balls.

'Did you see there's a blue one on the far side, there?

'Any rogue balls will be deducted, remember. That's what the rules say.

'Plenty of green balls going in, though, that's good.

'Will it be enough? Quite a few in there as it is.

'A lot of concentration on that face, wasn't there? Ha ha!

'You can't pick the balls up off the floor,

'they have to be in the air, you've got to catch them,

'and then into the scoring cylinder they go, excellent.

'Wow. They're doing well.

'Already got quite a few in there, and lots more going in.

'This is impressive.

'Ross, doing well. There he goes, another one going in.

'25 seconds left. Wow. Come on.

'Let's get some more in there.

'And another one goes in, excellent.

'Ha ha ha ha!

'Catching as many as they can, these guys.

'Come on, Time's running out. Lewis, Gabe, Ross, quickly.'

HOOTER SOUNDS

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Very good, guys,

you got off to a cracking start, loads of green balls went in.

Unfortunately, a rogue blue ball did go in,

which means we have to deduct that from your final score.

-Give me that.

-Throw it, get it away.

The rest of the balls have been counted,

the results have been checked and verified.

You needed 25 green balls to win this trophy.

I can reveal that you collected...

..35!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Lewis, team captain, hold it aloft, my friend!

Champion-es!

-You guys smashed the Ball Room!

-Amazing, you had a good time?

-Yeah!

You've been a fantastic team, give it up for Lewis' team.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

What a great way to end the show, and I can't believe it's over.

Oh, hey, we'll see you next time on Copycats. Don't worry! Bye!
