Episode 11 Copycats

'Welcome to Copycats.

'Today's Copycats are Abbie's team from Fife

'and Adam's team from Manchester.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

'And here are your hosts, Sam and Mark.'

-BOTH:

-Hello!

-And welcome to Copycats,

the game show where copying is good.

Yes, we've got another two brilliant teams who are going to be battling

it out for the chance to win our new and improved Copycats trophy.

AUDIENCE OOHS

Pretty sweet.

We are going to be putting them to the test, though,

because they are going to need to work together

like a well-oiled copying machine to earn their place in the Ball Room.

In that case, let's meet the teams.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Right, over here we have Abbie.

-You're team captain. How are you?

-I'm good.

-Excellent. Would you like to introduce the gang for us?

-Yeah.

This is Katie, my friend. This is Ali, my other friend.

This is my mum, Cheryl. And this is my grandad, Stuart.

-And this is my mum's friend, Nicola.

-Excellent.

Have any of you guys seen Copycats before?

-ALL:

-Yeah.

-OK, excellent.

So you kind of know what to expect. No surprises.

SHOUTS: Apart from this!

SHE SHRIEKS, THEY LAUGH

Hey, you've got to be on your feet, Nicola,

You've got to be on your feet, all right? The best of luck for today.

Give it up for Abbie's team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Who has given Sam Nixon too much coffee?

OK, over here we've got Adam's team. How are you doing, Adam?

-Are you all right?

-I'm fine, thank you.

-Are you looking forward to it?

-Yeah, I really am.

-Fantastic.

Introduce the rest of the team, please.

Well, this is my friend, Alicia, and her mother, Lisa.

This is my sister, Lara, and this is my older sister, Leanna,

who flew over from Dublin. And this is my mother, Sarah.

Give it up for Adam's team, everyone. Fantastic.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-I think I may have scared my team.

-I think you did, I think you did.

Lovely teams. Now, let's get on with the show.

It's not called Copycats for nothing. No, no, no.

Each round gets our teams displaying their artistic, dramatic

and musical talent as they try and pass the answer down the line.

But not only that, they'll also face the terrifying Copycats Challenge.

DRAMATIC MUSIC

-Scary, darey.

-It's not that scary.

Now, we were going to hold a jousting competition between the

two teams to decide who went first.

But apparently, that's a health and safety nightmare so we tossed a coin

instead, which told us that Adam's team are going to be playing first.

Let's play Copycats.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

OK, Adam's team.

It's time to put your drawing skills to the test

because we are about to play Quick On The Draw.

Lisa, I've got three cards in my hand.

You're going to pick one of these cards.

You're then going to have ten seconds to draw whatever

is on that card for the player next to you

and then so on and so on down the line.

Now, remember, there's a maximum of 50 points up for grabs

in this round, but you will lose ten of those points

for every incorrect answer.

-Understand?

-Yeah.

-Copycats, are you ready?

-ALL:

-Yeah.

In that case, let's close the doors.

-Excited, Lisa?

-Yes.

-Yeah? OK, we've got blue, green or pink.

-Which one would you like?

-Pink, please.

-Pink? Have a look at that.

-Do you reckon you could draw that?

-Yes.

Fantastic. OK, the best of luck, Lisa.

-Thank you.

-Ready, steady, draw!

Off you go.

Very good, very good. OK, Alicia.

Leanna.

Adam, your turn.

OK, your turn.

OK, stop drawing. Right.

Lara, for a maximum of 50 points,

-what's the answer we are looking for?

-Is it a cauldron?

It's a great guess, but it's not a cauldron. Let's open the door.

-OK, any idea what Adam has drawn there?

-It's a barbecue?

It certainly looks like a barbecue,

but it's not what we're looking for.

OK, for 30 points, let's open the door.

-Any idea what Leanna has drawn?

-Is it a baby buggy or like a pram?

-SHOUTS:

-Yeah!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

That is the move of a team that just got themselves 30 points.

Well done!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right, we've got two cards left. Green or blue.

-Which one would you like?

-I'll go for blue.

-Take a look.

-Reckon you can draw that?

-I think so, yes.

-Lovely. Best of luck.

You've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, draw!

Nice. Katie, your turn.

Abbie, your turn.

Ali, your turn.

Right, Stuart, your turn. Tried to get a last glimpse, there.

Time is up! Ah, OK.

It's gone slightly wrong, but you still might be able to get it.

Cheryl, for a maximum of 50 points, what do you think that is?

A cheese grater?

It's not a cheese grater.

Stuart, what do you reckon?

-A piece, a cheese, a piece of cheese.

-A piece of cheese.

THEY LAUGH

-It's not a piece of cheese.

-Oh, dear.

-Ali, for 30 points.

-A spotty wall.

-What? Sorry?

-A spotty wall.

-A spotty wall?

-Yes.

OK. LAUGHS: It's not. We're playing for 20 points.

-Come on, this is pretty good.

-Is it pizza?

SHOUTS: Yes!

It's not a spotty wall. It's pizza.

Well done. Not too bad at all.

You get yourselves 20 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

So after Quick On The Draw

can Abbie's team get a PIZZA the action?

Or will Adam's team be pushing the pram all the way to the Ball Room?

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

Well, Sam.

After Quick On The Draw, Abbie's team have 20 points

and Adam's team have 30 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right, it's the moment we've all been waiting for,

the moment where we challenge our teams to face the most

challenging of all Copycats Challenges.

Because this is the Copycats Challenge.

Stop saying challenge.

-Is that a challenge?

-What?

Because Adam's team won the toss,

they will be the first to face the Challenge.

-Stop saying challenge.

-OK.

So, Abbie's team, we don't want you guys to have a

sneaky peek of what's in store, so we're going to send you off.

So go and have a rest. Sit down, read a magazine.

Watch some telly. Make a cup of tea.

-Or coffee.

-Well, you never know, do you?

Now, Adam, as team captain,

you need to select two people to face the awesome Copycats Challenge.

But before you do, let's have a look and see what the challenge is.

Mr D, what could it be?

'The Towers.

'Two players must stack six cubes of different colours

'and sizes by copying the order shown on the screen.

'Cubes must be stacked in the building zones and 30 points

'are scored for every tower that stays standing for two seconds.

'Good luck.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Oh, yes, it's Towers time. OK, Adam and Leanna.

You are going to be playing. Are you ready? You look ready.

You're like this. Fantastic, OK, three, two, one, go! Come on!

'There they go.

'Adam and sister Leanna,

'stacking the different-sized cubes

'in the order of the colours

'they see on the screen.

'They can take help, though,

'from their fellow team members.

'They are going really well here.

'This is good.

'Blue to be followed by the red

'and we'll have the green on the top.

'They have to stand clear.

'If it stays standing for two seconds,

'look, see what happens, you get a point.

'So that's the first tower completed.

'You move all of the cubes then

'over to the other side

'and there is the new pattern,

'there, look, that you have to form.

'Starting with purple on the bottom.

'That's right. And that goes on there.

'Oh, the orange is huge, as cubes go.

'You've got to get the balance right.

'Otherwise, it will all come tumbling down.

'Red on the top to finish.

'Stand clear.

'Yes, that's right as well.

'Good. We've got two towers.

'Let's see if we can get another one.

-'40 seconds to go.'

-Green! Green!

'Fellow team members really shouting.'

Orange! Orange!

'Mark's concentrating as well. Look, he's offering advice!'

-Careful, careful.

-'Now it's that

tricky orange one. Then the blue.'

It's got to balance.

'And then the purple. Stand clear.'

'Ooh! Yes, good, good, good.

'20 seconds left.

'You might just get another

'one in quickly.

'Come on! Come on, Adam.

'Come on, Leanna. Come on.'

-Yellow!

-You've got ten seconds.

'Oh, still got that orange one to go.

'Oh, no, it's already fallen. Ohh.

'So close. So close. Time is up!'

KLAXON SOUNDS

Oh, well done. Well done.

We'll add those points from the Challenge to your total

after the third round.

Remember, Abbie's team still have to play

and the scores from the Copycats Challenge can make all

the difference in deciding which team goes to the Ball Room.

Oh, yes. Let's hear it one more time for Adam's team. Come on!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

Cheryl, there are three cards in my hand.

You are going to pick one

and you're going to have ten seconds to mime whatever is on that

card to the player next to you,

which is Ali, and so on down the line.

The rule in this round, there's only one rule, silent performances.

So no talking, OK?

As usual, there's a maximum of 50 points up for grabs.

But don't forget, you will lose ten of those points for every

incorrect answer coming back down the line.

That's not going to happen, though.

-We're going to get the full 50, aren't we? ALL:

-Yeah!

-Ow!

Stuart, you're really loud, I like it. Let's close the doors.

Right, Cheryl. I've got three cards for you - pink, blue or green?

-Pink, please.

-Pink, take a look.

-OK.

-Do you reckon you can mime that?

-I think so.

-Excellent.

You've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, mime!

Very good, very good.

Good. Stuart.

Katie.

Abbie.

Time's up.

Nicola, for a maximum of 50 points, what did it look like?

Turning some taps on?

It wasn't that, unfortunately,

which means we are playing for 40 points.

Team captain Abbie, what do you reckon?

Was it changing a light bulb?

SHRIEKS: Yes!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

I don't know how you got that, Abbie,

because it wasn't what was happening most of the time.

Hey, well, it doesn't matter, you get yourselves 40 points!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Team captain Adam, best of luck, mate. We've got green or blue,

-which one will you go for?

-Green, please.

-Have a look at that.

-Can you do that?

-Yeah.

-He can do it.

Right. The best of luck.

Ready, steady, mime!

Very good. OK, Lara, your turn.

Alicia.

Oh, watch your head.

Watch your head.

OK, stop miming.

Hm, I wonder where it went wrong. Um, anyway,

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

Is it a tent?

THEY LAUGH

It's not a tent, OK? Let's open the door. For 40 points, Lisa?

It's an exercise.

It's not exercising.

-OK, let's open the door. Sarah.

-A hopping frog.

SHOUTS: Yes! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Awesome. Well done, guys, you get yourselves 30 points.

Nice work.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

So, after Mime Time, have Abbie's team had a light bulb moment,

or can Adam's team hop all the way to the Ball Room?

It's time to check those all-important scores.

Mr D, what could they be?

'It's neck and neck, Mark.

'After Mime Time, Abbie's team have 60 points

'and Adam's team also have 60 points.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-THEY WHOOP Oh, excellent!

-Close!

The pressure is on for Abbie's team as it's their turn to

face this most challenging of challenges, the Copycats Challenge.

-I've turned into you.

-You have.

So, Abbie's team, this is your chance to add some crucial points

-to your overall score. Are you ready for it? ALL:

-Yes!

-Yes!

And Adam's team, time for you to leave.

Go and have a nice cup of tea.

Go on, have a relax. Adam's going to have a dance.

Nice dance wave-off.

Abbie, as team captain, you have to select two people to

take on this challenge.

But before you do that, we need to see what's in store.

So, Mr D, what could it be?

'The Towers.

'Once again, two players must stack six cubes of different colours

'and sizes by copying the order on the screen.

'30 points are scored for every tower that stays

'standing for two seconds.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-It is Towers time. Guys, are you feeling confident? BOTH:

-Yes!

Awesome. The best of luck. In three, two, one, go!

'Who do we have then?

'Well, it's Abbie's friend Katie

'and her grandad Stuart stacking.

'The rest of the team help with

'words of advice. And this is fast.

'This is fast. The faster you go,

'the more towers you can make.'

-OK, wait for it...

-'There, first one.

'Will it count? Yes, it will.'

This is good, guys, this is good.

'Next one. And look at that.

'Stuart's carrying most

'of the cubes to the other side.

-'That saves time.'

-Green! Green!

'That orange cube is huge.

'It worries me. There it is.

'You have to get the balance right.'

Don't forget it's got to balance, guys.

'And the yellow.

'Then the blue. And we just need the

'red on top, and again, stand clear.

'See if it stays standing for two

'seconds. It does!'

-Well done.

-'Excellent. Over to the

'other side. See how Stuart does it.

'He carries most of them across.

'And they're all in place ready for

'you then. That's good.'

Orange! Blue!

'40 seconds left now.'

It's the green one.

'You have to be very, very careful

'when there are smaller cubes

'underneath that orange one.

'Look at that. See it shaking already?

-'It's moving.'

-That's it.

'Get the balance right,

'you could be scoring points.

'25 seconds left. Is that right?

'Yes, it is. Good.

'Now they've gone everywhere.'

You've got 20 seconds left. Come on,

let's try and get one more.

'This is brilliant.

'See if you can get one more in.

'You are right, absolutely right.

'We've got time. Very quickly.

'Look at this! Look at the speed!'

-Come on, we can do it!

-Orange!

-'This is impressive.'

-Gently, does it.

'Orange one! Will it stand?

'Stand clear! Yes!'

KLAXON SOUNDS

Time's up! Come on over, guys. Come on over. Well done! Well done!

THEY LAUGH

Nice work, guys. That was great teamwork. Really, really good.

We will be adding those Challenge points to your total

after our final round and see which of our teams have

earned their place in the Copycats Ball Room

to play for the trophy.

Let's hear it for Abbie's team, though, that was a great effort.

Nice work. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

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

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

and then you have ten seconds to play that tune for the person

-next to you on the old Copycats kazoo. Wave them in the air!

-Woohoo!

All right! And then that tune gets copied all the way down the line.

There is a maximum of 50 points up for grabs,

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

Now, could everybody, except for Alicia, put your headphones on?

So you don't hear which song has been selected. Thank you.

Our Copycats, they look ready. So let's close the doors.

-How are you feeling, Alicia, all right?

-Yes.

-Good, good, good.

OK. We've got pink, green or blue. Which one would you like?

-The blue one, please.

-Blue one, no problem.

-Do you know that song?

-No.

-No?

Well, we are going to play it into the studio now

so you can get it into your head.

Let's have a listen.

# So, honey, now

# Take me into your loving arms

# Kiss me... #

Ready, steady, play! Open the door!

Well done.

That's good.

OK, Sarah, your turn.

OK, Adam, your turn.

Oh, Adam, high five! Bring it in! That was excellent.

Oh, lovely. OK.

For a maximum of 50 points, any idea, Leanna,

what Adam was playing there?

Sorry by Justin Bieber?

It is not Sorry by Justin Bieber.

Let's open the door. Adam, what's the answer?

Was it We All Live In A Yellow Submarine

by The Beatles?

Oh, Sam is going to love you for that, he loves The Beatles.

But it's not, unfortunately. Let's open the door.

For 30 points, Sarah, any idea?

-Hello, by Adele.

-Hello! Oh, Hello, yeah.

THEY LAUGH

It's not Hello by Adele.

Let's open the door.

Is it We Found Love?

Oh, sorry, I can't give it to you but...

It's so close! OK. Any idea what Alicia was playing?

We Found Love?

It's not We Found Love. Unlucky. Oh, so unlucky.

-Alicia, you did a fantastic version. What is it?

-Thinking Out Loud.

Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran! Let's have a listen!

# So, honey, now... #

Unlucky, that was brilliant playing. That really, really was.

# Take me into your loving arms... #

Give them a round of applause.

They get no points. It was very entertaining. Very good.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Right, Cheryl, I've got two cards left. Which one would you like?

-Green or pink?

-Green, please.

Take a look.

Do you know that song?

Yeah, but I can't hear it in my head at the moment.

-OK, well, don't worry.

-I should know it.

We are going to play it into the studio.

Get it in your head, here we go.

# But if you like causing trouble up in hotel rooms

# And if you like having secret little rendezvous... #

-Got it in your head?

-Yes, uh-huh.

-OK, Cheryl, best of luck.

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

Nice, Nicola.

Very good. Ali.

OK. Katie.

Time is up.

APPLAUSE

Abbie, for a maximum of 50 points, what do you think the song is?

-500 Miles?

-LAUGHTER

It's not 500 Miles, which means we are playing for 40 points. Stuart?

-Help!

-Do you need help or Help by The Beatles?

-Help by The Beatles.

All right.

It's not, unfortunately, which means we are playing for 30 points.

-Katie, I've got to say Ali did a fantastic job.

-Party?

It's not Party, which means we're playing for 20 points. Ali?

-Do you know it?

-Perfect by One Direction.

SHOUTS: Yes!

# But if you like causing trouble up in hotel rooms

# And if you... #

You get yourselves 20 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

'After three rounds, Abbie's team have 80 points

'and Adam's team have 60 points.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

It is time to find out who nailed the Copycats Challenge

-and which team will be stepping into the Ball Room.

-It's very tense.

In today's Challenge, one team scored 90 points. Good, very good.

AUDIENCE OOHS, APPLAUSE

And one team scored 120 points.

AUDIENCE OOHS, APPLAUSE

We've added those scores to each team's total, and the team going

through to the Copycats Ball Room and playing for the trophy is...

..Abbie's team!

THEY CHEER

Which means we have to say goodbye to Adam's team.

-Have you enjoyed yourself?

-ALL:

-Yes!

You've been absolutely fantastic,

you really have.

Give it up for Adam's team, everyone.

Thanks, guys. See you, buddy.

Brilliant. Big congratulations to Abbie's team. Nice work.

-Are you ready for one more challenge? ALL:

-Yes.

Good, because it's coming your way. It's time to play the Ball Room.

-Coming YOUR way.

-Get off.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well, team, you've done really well to get this far,

but I'm pretty sure that you guys won't want to be going home

without getting your mitts on this, the Copycats trophy.

-Am I right? ALL:

-Yes!

-Do you want to touch it?

-No!

-You can't!

OK, let's hope that you are ready

because it's time to enter the Ball Room!

OK, now, before we open the doors and let you in,

let's take a look at how you win.

'The Ball Room.

'Players must collect 20 blue balls and deposit them

'in the scoring cylinder before the time runs out.

'Any other coloured balls collected will be deducted from the total.

'Good luck!'

-OK, team, are you ready?

-ALL:

-Yes!

-Beautiful.

-In that case, three, two, one... BOTH:

-Blast the balls!

'So, 20 blue balls need to be placed in the scoring cylinder,

'but they must be blue ones, just like that one.

'Excellent. There we go, and that's...

'Oh, look, that's grandad Stuart passing Abbie two more balls there.

'Excellent.

'And there's Abbie's mum, Cheryl.

'Ah, now, there's an orange one in there

'and we don't need that, do we?

'You know what happens there. That will be deducted from the total.

'Blue ones only, remember. Don't know how that happened.

'Great shot from above there with the chaos.

'Balls flying everywhere, look.'

'Come on, Stuart. He's doing very well.

'In they go.'

'Really concentrating.'

'There's Cheryl.

'She's caught another one, that's good.

'They're mounting up, these, look at this!

'Another one in from Stuart.'

'And another one from Cheryl.'

'Very, very good. But have they got enough? We're about to find out.

'That klaxon is about to go!

KLAXON SOUNDS

'Oh, look! A team hug.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

The balls have been counted and the results have been checked

and verified. You needed 20 blue balls

to get your hands on this trophy.

I can reveal that you collected...

..36 blue balls!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

There you go!

Hold it up!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-All right.

-Yes! I'm going to ask the stupidest question ever.

Are you happy?

-Yes.

-Fantastic.

-Stuart, you're about to get even more happy

cos guess what.

-I'm going to throw in some Copycats T-shirts as well.

-Yes!

HE LAUGHS

-What a great way to end the show.

-It's been awesome.

-We'll see you next time on Copycats. BOTH:

-Bye!

SHOUTS: Yes!
