Episode 13 Copycats

'Welcome to Copycats.

'Today's Copycats are Cassie's team from the Vale of Glamorgan

'and Sophia's team from Gateshead.

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

-BOTH: Hello!

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

And by good we mean great, magnificent,

tremendous or even marvellous.

And if your copying is all of those things, we give you points.

If you get the most points, you could get your hands

on the only game show prize you can see from space -

the Copycats trophy.

AUDIENCE: Oooh!

Hold on, that is impressive, but that is not actually factual.

Oi, you up there in the Space Station,

can you actually see the trophy from the Space Station window?

LAUGHTER

-Told you, didn't I?

-Oh, right.

-It is impressive though.

-It is.

-Let's meet the teams.

-All right.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-All right, over here we've got Cassie. Are you all right?

-Yeah.

-Excellent. Are you excited to be here?

-Very.

-You look excited.

Would you like to introduce the team, please,

as you are team captain.

Sure. This is my best friend, Miriam,

then here is a family friend, Jordan,

and another family friend, Tom,

and then we have Becca, my sister,

-and Jolie, my best friend.

-Lovely.

-Guys, are you all excited to be here?

-Yes.

-Definitely.

-Awesome.

-More importantly, are you going to win it?

-ALL: Yes!

-Yeah!

Now, have you been practising for Copycats today?

-Hmm.

-LAUGHTER

No, you're just seeing how it goes.

-We're just naturally talented. We'll just go with it.

-Oh, I like that.

-Not the first time.

-I like that, Becca. Best of luck for today.

Give it up for Cassie's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Over here, we've got Sophia's team. Yeah!

-Sophia, team captain, how are you?

-I'm great.

-Fantastic.

Would you like to introduce the rest of the team, please?

This is my friend, Hannah, this is my cousin, Olympia,

behind me is Hannah's mum, Joy,

this is my other friend's mum, Caroline,

and this is my other friend, Hannah.

Well, it is lovely to have you on Copycats.

Are you feeling nervous at all?

-No.

-No.

-No.

Joy, you went like this, "Err...no. No, no, no." Are you going to win?

-Cos they're very confident over there, Cassie's team.

-Yes.

-Very confident.

-They're really confident.

So, I want to hear your best, "We're going to win."

-ALL: We're going to win!

-That's all I need to know.

Give it up for Sophia's team, everyone.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

It's time to get copying.

Just like every game of Copycats, our teams will take it in turns

to show off their artistic, dramatic and musical copying talents

to try and win as many points as possible.

And if that wasn't enough for them, they also have to come face-to-face

with the awesome Copycats Challenge to try and win points aplenty.

Before the show, we tossed a coin to see who would go first.

And the winner of that coin toss was...

-Cassie's team!

-Whoo!

So, you guys are going first. Let's play Copycats.

Right, Cassie's team, I hope you are ready to get arty

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

-Becca, are you any good at drawing?

-Er, almost passed GCSE art.

-Excellent, almost passed.

-But, you know, I'll try.

I've got three cards in my hand.

You're going to pick one of these cards.

You'll then have 10 seconds to draw what is on that card

to the player next to you.

That player will then pass it on down the line

and so on, and so on, all the way to the end.

There is a maximum of 50 points to be won in this round

but don't forget you will lose 10 points for every incorrect answer

-coming back down the line. Do we understand the rules?

-Yes.

-Copycats, are we ready?

-ALL: Yes!

Awesome. Let's close the doors.

-Right.

-Here we go.

-Becca, we've got pink, blue or green.

-I'm going to have to go blue, I love it.

-Take it. Have a look.

-OK.

-Reckon you can draw that?

-Yeah.

OK, the best of luck. You've got 10 seconds.

Ready, steady, draw.

Wow, nice. A lot of detail. Go for it.

HE MOUTHS

Very good! Cassie, your turn.

OK.

All right. Jordan, your turn.

Time is up. Right.

Good drawing down the line.

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

-Is it a roller skate?

-Yes!

Nice work. I've got to say, some fantastic drawings,

especially these first two drawings, a lot of detail in 10 seconds.

Cassie, great job putting Becca in the first booth.

Hey, I've got to say, GCSEs, hey, you almost did it,

you almost passed them.

Well done, you get yourselves 50 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

That's great.

Hannah, the best of luck.

-I have got green or pink, which one would you like?

-I'll go with green.

OK, have a look at that.

Do you think you can draw that?

-Yeah.

-All right.

Best of luck, Hannah.

Ready, steady, draw. Off you go.

OK. Sophia, your turn.

OK. Olympia, your turn.

Go on, Hannah.

OK. Joy, your turn.

OK, stop drawing.

I have to say, very impressed with the copying down the line

but what do I know?

For a maximum of 50 points, Caroline, what's the answer?

I think that that's headphones.

Yes!

Well done. Well done for putting Hannah in the first booth.

That is a brilliant, brilliant drawing.

It just got better and better. Well done.

You get the maximum 50 points. Round of applause.

So, after Quick On The Draw, did Cassie's team do wheely well

or are Sophia's team listening to the sound of success?

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

'The scores are high, Mark. After Quick On The Draw,

'Cassie's team have 50 points

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

Whoo!

Our teams have faced their first test of copying

but now it's time to raise the stakes a little.

Bring on the Copycats Challenge.

And because Cassie's team won the toss,

they are first to face the challenge.

So, Sophia's team, to keep it fair, we are going to send you

out the studio so you don't see what the challenge is.

-We'll see you later. Off you go. Bye!

-Bye!

Right, Cassie, as team captain, you now have to select

one person to take on this Copycats Challenge, all right?

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

'The Sequence.

'One player must copy an increasingly difficult series

'of flashing lights.

'Get it right and one more light is added to the sequence.

'15 points are awarded for every successful sequence completed.

'Good luck.'

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

And here it is, The Sequence.

Right, Cassie, you've chosen Becca to play this.

-Are you confident in her memory ability?

-Yes.

-Excellent.

She memorised Tom's credit card details in 20 seconds.

That is fantastic.

-Becca, are you all right?

-Yeah, yeah, good, good.

OK. The best of luck. In three, two, one, go.

'They need to have chosen wisely on this challenge.

'Can Becca, Cassie's sister, remember a sequence of lights

'that gets longer and longer?

'She's doing all right so far, look.

'This is the third sequence coming up.

'We add an extra light to it,

'she then has to remember it.

'Very good. That's four now.

'Just over a minute to go.

'She's recalling the sequence quite quickly

'which means you can have more goes at it.

'We keep adding one more light at the end of the sequence.

'And so far it's not throwing Becca at all.

'She's doing really well.

'There's the extra one.

'How much of that can we recall?

'Look at the speed of this!

'Absolutely correct.

'Yeah, Cassie's happy with that.

'I'm not surprised.

'There's the extra one so we go back through that sequence once more.

'Can she recall all of it?

-'Yes!'

-Whoo-hoo-hoo!

'A little hesitation there but she did well.

'Eight sequences recalled successfully so far.

'Just a few seconds left.

'How far will we get

'into this sequence?

'Ooh.

-'Well done.'

-KLAXON SOUNDS

Oh!

Round of applause for that. Come on over, guys.

-Come on round, Becca. That was amazing.

-Thank you.

Nice work. Tom, if I were you, I'd check your bank balance, mate.

LAUGHTER

OK, we will add those points from that challenge

to your total after the third round.

Remember, Sophia'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. That was amazing.

Let's hear it for Cassie's team and, of course, Becca, everyone.

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Very good.

-Thank you.

Welcome back to the game, Sophia's team. Let's play Mime Time.

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

You're going to pick one of these cards,

you're then going to have 10 seconds to mime whatever is on that card

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

All I ask of you is that I want silent performances.

-Understand?

-Yeah.

-Fantastic.

As with every pass-it-on game, there are 50 points up for grabs

in this round but you will lose 10 points for every incorrect answer

coming back down the line but that's not going to happen, is it?

-No.

-Brilliant.

-Copycats, are you ready?

-ALL: Yes!

-Yeah, let's close the doors.

Right, Sophia, I've got blue, pink or green. Which one would you like?

-Blue.

-Blue. Have a look at that.

Can you do that, do you reckon?

-Yeah.

-All right.

Well, the best of luck, Sophia. Remember, silent performances.

Ready, steady, mime. Off you go.

Olympia, your turn.

Your turn, Hannah.

OK, Hannah.

OK, Caroline, your turn.

Right. Time to spare, Caroline. I like that.

All right, for a maximum of 50 points...

I think you know this.

..Joy, what's the answer?

-Sleepwalking.

-Yes!

Sophia, that was inspired doing that and then doing that.

That was really good. Well done.

That is why you're the captain of this team.

Maximum - 50 points. Yes!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Right, Miriam, best of luck.

-We've got two cards left, green or pink?

-OK.

-Erm, can I have pink, please?

-Course you can. Take a look.

-Thank you.

BOTH LAUGH

-Reckon you can do that?

-Yeah.

It's a good one.

Best of luck. You've got 10 seconds.

Ready, steady, mime.

SAM LAUGHS

That was good. Nice. Jolie, your turn.

CASSIE LAUGHS

Nice. Cassie.

CASSIE LAUGHS

SAM LAUGHS

Can't wait for this. Go on, Tom.

LAUGHTER

SAM LAUGHS

All right, Jordan, your turn.

LAUGHTER

SAM LAUGHS Time's up. Stop miming.

Right, Becca, for a maximum of 50 points,

what's the answer we're looking for?

Oh, a dance in a club?

It wasn't dancing.

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

Jordan, any idea? It did look like dancing, obviously, but...

Um...Saturday Night Live whatever dancing.

-Oh, right, Saturday Night Fever type thing.

-Yeah, that one.

-Yeah, yeah.

It's not, unfortunately.

Which means we're playing for 30 points. Tom?

I don't... A ballerina?

A ballerina, it wasn't a ballerina.

Which means we're playing for 20 points. Cassie?

Was it modelling?

Yay!

Jordan, modelling?!

LAUGHTER

I'm not going to lie, when it got to Tom,

that's when it changed to dancing. I'm not going to lie.

But it was modelling. Well done, guys.

You get yourselves 20 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

So, after Mime Time, are Sophia's team living the dream?

Or will Cassie's team be posing with the trophy?

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

'Well, Sam, after Mime Time,

'Cassie's team have 70 points and Sophia's team have 100 points.'

-Ooh.

-Right, the next round could be crucial.

It's time for Sophia's team to take on the mighty Copycats Challenge.

So, Sophia's team, this is your chance

to add some big points to your score.

-Are you feeling ready?

-ALL: Yes.

-Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Cassie's team, you guys can have a rest, a well-earned rest.

-We'll see you later though. Bye, guys!

-Bye!

-See you later.

OK. Now, Sophia, as team captain,

you now need to select a star performer

to face the Copycats Challenge.

But before that, we need to find out

what the challenge is. Mr D, what is it?

'The Sequence.

'As before, one player must copy an increasingly difficult

'series of flashing lights.

'15 points are scored for every correct sequence.

'Good luck.'

Three, two, one, go.

'Let's see how Caroline gets on, shall we?

'There's the first one. Correctly recalled.

'Oh, hang on, she's touching ones that haven't lit up.'

Caroline, Caroline, you've got to wait.

'Remember, you need to wait for the sequence to finish

'before you start copying.'

OK, wait for them to finish. That's it.

'Calm down. Calm down, Caroline!

'Try this one.

'That's good.

'She's got it now, or has she? Let's find out.

'That one.

'Not that one though.

'50 seconds left.

'Sophia watching with interest.

'That's good, another one recalled successfully.

'It's not easy though, this game.

'Brilliant. Good, she's got it now.

'Let's see how many she gets,

'how many she recalls successfully.

'Here we go again.

'There we are.

'Six under our belt, let's see if we can get one more in

'before times runs out. 10 seconds to go.

'Have a go, Caroline.

-'That's it!'

-KLAXON SOUNDS

Oh, just ran out of time.

Come on, Caroline. Come over here. Come on.

-You did really well, you really did. Didn't she do well?

-Yes.

She did great, didn't she? Well done.

We will add those challenge points to your total

after our final round and find out

which of our teams have earned their place in the Copycats Ball Room.

Let's hear it, one more time, for Sophia's team

and especially Caroline. Give her a round of applause.

APPLAUSE

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

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

then recreate that tune to the person next to you

on the Copycats kazoo.

As always, there is a maximum of 50 points up for grabs

in this round, but don't forget - you will lose 10 points

for every incorrect answer coming back down the line.

-We understand the rules, don't we?

-Yes.

-Yeah, got it.

-Beautiful.

Now, could everybody except Jordan please put your headphones on

so you don't hear which song has been selected?

Our Copycats look ready.

Cassie's having a lovely little dance down there.

The best of luck, guys.

They can't hear me. Close the doors!

Right, Jordan, I've got three tunes.

Pink, green or blue?

-Blue, please.

-Take a look, mate.

-Do you know that song?

-Not really.

Aw. Well, don't worry,

we're going to play it into the studio.

Have a good listen, get the melody in your head

and then hopefully you can recreate it. Let's hear it.

# With your love nobody can drag me down

# Nobody, nobody

# Nobody can drag me down... #

-Sound familiar?

-Yeah.

-Good.

# Nobody, nobody. #

-Best of luck, Jordan.

-Thank you.

-You've got 10 seconds.

Ready, steady, play.

OK.

SHE GIGGLES WHILE PLAYING

OK, Miriam.

MIRIAM GIGGLES

Ooh, good luck, Tom.

Becca, your turn.

Time's up.

Ooh. This is tricky. Cassie, for 50 points, what's the answer?

Was it the Pink Panther theme tune?

SAM LAUGHS

It wasn't. We're playing for 40 points. Becca.

-Was it Hollow by Tori Kelly?

-It wasn't.

-No.

Which means we're playing for 30 points. Tom?

Er, Since You've Been Gone by Kelly Clarkson.

Great song but it's not, unfortunately.

So, that means we're playing for 20 points. Miriam, any idea?

Erm, is it Shake It Off by Taylor Swift?

It's not Shake It Off by Taylor Swift.

So, we're playing for the minimum of 10 points. It was a tricky one.

Was it Lush Life by Zara Larsson?

It wasn't. Jordan, do you want to tell everybody?

-Drag Me Down by One Direction.

-Let's hear it.

# With your love nobody can drag me down

# Nobody, nobody. #

Aw, that was difficult.

But I've got to say, Jordan, you did a decent job

considering you'd not heard the song before.

When he picked the card, he was like, "Oh, dear."

I thought it was pretty all right. But, you know what, guys?

Not many people get points in the Music Round anyway.

So, don't be too sad.

Don't be too sad. Give them a round of applause anyway.

APPLAUSE

OK, Olympia, I've got two cards left - green or pink,

which one would you like?

-Green.

-OK, have a look at that.

-Do you know that one?

-Yeah, yeah.

It's all right, we'll play it

-into the studio.

-That's all right, then.

-All right, have a listen.

# This is my fight song

# Take back my life song

# Prove them all right song. #

See, I've got every faith in you.

Ready, steady, play. Off you go.

Time to spare, OK.

OK.

OK, Hannah.

-Wow. Oh, wow.

-APPLAUSE

Yeah, it does deserve a round of applause, that.

I've not even heard the guesses and I just think that's fantastic

all the way down the line.

For a maximum of 50 points, come on, Caroline, you know this.

I think I do know it but I can't think of the name.

Erm...

Talking Out Loud.

It isn't Talking Out Loud. Let's open the door.

-Sophia, come on, you know it.

-Is it Photograph?

-HE GASPS

-It isn't photograph.

Oh!

Hannah, come on. 30 points.

-Fight Song.

-Yes!

Yes, yes, yes!

Well done, Hannah!

MUSIC: Fight Song by Rachel Platten

Brilliant. I've got to say, that is one of the best, best copying

I've ever heard on the Music Round. That is brilliant.

And you were worried about being in the first booth! You were brilliant.

Well done, you get yourselves 30 points. Yes!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

'After three rounds then, Cassie's team have 70 points

'and Sophia's team have 130 points.'

So, now it's time to reveal the scores from the Copycats Challenge.

Which team beat The Sequence?

And which team are pirouetting their way to the Ball Room?

In today's challenge, one team scored...

90 points.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Very good. Very good.

And one team scored...

120 points.

What?!

We've added those scores to each team's total.

The team going through to the Copycats Ball Room

and playing for the trophy is...

..Sophia's team!

Which means, sadly, we have to say goodbye to Cassie's team.

Aw, I'm going to miss you. I like you guys.

Have you enjoyed yourselves?

-Yes.

-Very much, yes.

-Good. You've been a lovely team.

Give it up for Cassie's team, everyone.

-See you later, guys. Thank you.

-See you.

-Bye.

Sophia's team, you were a bit surprised there, weren't you?

-ALL: Yes.

-Don't worry about it. Great copying so far.

Are you up for one more challenge?

-ALL: Yes.

-Course you are.

All right. In that case, it's time to play the Ball Room.

Here we go, team.

There is only one more thing you need to do to get your hands

-on this beautiful Copycats trophy.

-Best of luck.

Before we open the doors and let you in,

let's take a look at how you win wibbly wobbly.

'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.

-Fantastic. The best of luck.

-In three, two, one.

-BOTH: Blast the balls!

'So, Sophia's team are in the Ball Room

'and they're scoring already.

'Wow. Look at that.

'That's brilliant.

'Left to right, it's Joy, Sophia and Hannah.

'And we need to have collected 20 blue balls

'by the time the klaxon sounds.'

THEY LAUGH AND SQUEAL

'Well done.

'Oh, yeah, look at this. This is very good.

'Joy is quite tall in there, isn't she?

'I wonder if that will help in this game.

'It seems to be.

'Come on, Hannah.

'They look to be doing well. Sophia in particular.

'Very soon we shall find out how many they've caught

'cos there are only 12 seconds left.'

THEY LAUGH AND SCREAM

'A lot of laughter, a lot of shrieking.

'Another one... Oh, I think that one got blown back

'into the Ball Room there.

-'And time's up.'

-KLAXON SOUNDS

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

All right, team, the balls have been counted,

-the result has been checked and, apparently, verified.

-Mm, yeah.

You needed 20 blue balls to win this trophy.

I can reveal that you collected...

-Put that away, mate.

-Aw.

-Not really! ..24 blue balls!

-Yeah!

THEY SCREAM

-There you go.

-Yes!

Can I just say,

you were all brilliant

in the Ball Room but, Sophia,

you were like a ninja in there.

-Ph-ph-ph-ph-phew!

-Nice one.

Hey, do you know what else?

We're going to throw in

some Copycats T-shirts as well.

Whoo! Have you had a good time?

-Fantastic.

-Yeah.

You have been wonderful.

Give it up one more time

for Sophia's team. Winners!

Lovely. Lovely way to end the show.

We'll see you next time on Copycats.

-Bye!

-Bye!

-See ya!
