Episode 22 Copycats

'Welcome to Copycats.

'Today's Copycats are Jodie's Team from Newcastle

'and Ellie's Team from south-east London.

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

BOTH: Hello!

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

Copying in exams, bad. Don't do it, people. Copying on Copycats, good.

-The clue is in the programme title.

-It is indeed.

Whether it's drawing, miming or music we love copying on this show.

In fact, we love it so much, we give you points if you're good at it.

And if you win the most points, you could win something

that not only looks great but is also very flexible -

the bingy-boingy Copycats Trophy.

But only one of today's teams will have the chance

to get their hands on it.

Hey, we don't give these things away, you know.

Let's not dilly-dally then. Let's meet the teams.

-Over here we've got Jodie. You all right, Jodie?

-Yeah.

Nice to meet you. So, Jodie, you're Team Captain.

Would you like to introduce everybody?

This is my best friend, Gaby, this is my stepsister, Tegan,

this is my mum, Dawn, that's my stepdad, Paul, and my Auntie Olane.

Lovely, well, we shall look forward to seeing you guys in action.

The best of luck. Give it up for Jodie's Team.

I'm feeling good over here. Ellie's Team, you're giving me good vibes.

Ellie, Team Captain, introduce the rest of the team, please.

This is Ella, my friend, this is Daisy, that's my mum, Jo,

my dad, Mark, and Ella's Nan, Julie.

-So, who's the drawer in the team, would you say?

-Me.

-Yeah? OK, OK. Who's the actor, would you say?

-Ella.

-OK, all right. So who's the musician, would you say?

-Me.

Right. I can see why she's Team Captain, guys.

-What are you bringing?

-Ballast.

THEY LAUGH

Best of luck. Give it up for Ellie's Team, everyone.

Hey, looks like our teams are ready to spring into action.

They'll take it in turns to display their artistic, dramatic,

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

And there are big points to be scored

when they take on the mighty Copycats Challenge.

To decide who went first today, we tossed a coin before the show.

The winner was Ellie's Team, so they're up first.

Let's play Copycats.

OK, Ellie's Team, you will need to show off your sketching skills

and find your inner artist for this game

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

Ellie, 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 draw whatever is on that card

for the player next to you and then so on, and so on down the line.

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

but you will lose 10 of those points

for every incorrect answer coming back down the line.

-Copycats, are you ready?

-ALL: Yes!

Then let's close the doors.

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

-Pink.

-Have a look at that.

-Do you reckon you can draw that?

-Yeah.

-Oh, yeah.

-Yeah, I got this.

-She's got this, don't you worry about that.

OK, the best of luck, ready, steady, draw. Off you go.

OK, Daisy, your turn.

Ella, your turn.

Come on, Jo, come on.

Stop drawing, please.

For a maximum of 50 points, Mark,

any idea the answer that I've got on the cards?

It's a cowboy hat.

LAUGHTER

-It's not the right answer. 40 points, Jo.

-Is it an island?

It's not an island, funnily enough.

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

-Julie, come on.

-Cactus?

-It looks like a cactus,

-it does but it's wrong.

-Oh.

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

-Was at a satellite?

-No.

It is not a satellite. Let's open the door for a minimum.

Ellie said she'd got this. OK, what are we looking for?

Um...is it a straw hat?

It is a hat but unfortunately we've got to be more specific. Ellie?

-It's a top hat.

-It's a top hat.

-Why's it round?!

I'm with you, Daisy. Unfortunately you don't get any points

but give them a round of applause anyway.

-Hi, Dawn.

-Hi.

-You've got two cards left, green or blue.

-I'll take blue, please.

-Take a look.

-Thank you.

-Reckon you can draw that?

-Oh, I think so.

-Best of luck.

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

Jodie, your turn.

Tegan, your turn.

Gaby, your turn.

Paul, go for it.

Time's up. Oh, dear. Oh, dear.

Playing for a maximum of 50 points, what do you think the answer is?

-I don't know. I... Sheep?

-It's not a sheep.

Which means we're playing for 40 points, Paul?

I think it's a dinosaur.

It's not, unfortunately, which means we're playing with 30 points.

-Gaby, any idea?

-A hand?

-Yeah, I can see where you're going with that.

It's not, unfortunately, which means were playing for 20 points.

It's not too bad, this. Bit out there but not too bad.

Is it a camel?

APPLAUSE

Look at that. Well done, guys.

You get yourself 20 points!

So, after Quick On The Draw, can Ellie's Team pull some points

out of their top hat? Will Jodie's Team end up having the hump?

Now, let's take a look at the scores.

Mr D, what could they be?

'Well, Sam, after Quick On The Draw,

'Jodie's Team have 20 points and Ellie's team have no points.'

-Plenty of time. Loads of time.

-Don't you worry.

Right, it is time for one of you teams to take on

a little test of skill and nerve that we like to call

the Copycats Challenge.

And because Ellie's Team won the toss,

they will be first to face the challenge.

Now, Jodie's team, I don't mean to be rude, but get out.

No, we don't want you to see what's in store

-so we want to save it for later. So, see you later, Jodie's team.

-Bye!

Bye!

Now, Ellie, as Team Captain, you now need to select three people

to face the dramatic Copycats Challenge.

But before you take your pick, let's find out what the challenge is.

Mr D... What could it be?

'Patterns will illuminate on the floor grid before disappearing.

'Players must copy each pattern by placing blocks on the squares

'that were lit up.

'30 points are awarded for every correctly copied pattern.

'Good luck.'

Ellie, Team Captain, you've picked yourself, Mark and Ella to play.

-You happy with that?

-Yeah.

-Yeah! OK, well, the best of luck.

Three, two, one. Off you go.

'And the first pattern is there immediately. Look.

'Ellie's dad, Mark grabs one of the blocks.

'Heads for the grid, there he is,

'it sounds like the rest of the team have remembered

'which squares lit up.

'They're trying to get him to hurry up. Speed, speed.

-'He's doing his best.'

-Poor Mark!

-Go on, mate.

-'But has he got it right?

'Yes, he has, good.

'And there's pattern number two.

'Team captain Ellie quickly moving the blocks into their new positions.

'Oh, moment of confusion there, but agreement now, I think.

'Quickly as you can. Let's find out, shall we?

'Good. Two patterns recalled correctly.'

HE LAUGHS

'As Ella kicks one of the blocks across the Copycat studio.

'30 seconds remaining, come on.'

Very good! Really good!

'Very quick, this, by Ella. But how has she done?

-'Let's find out. Yes!'

-Well done. OK.

'Now Mark's back with us.

'Calmly getting on with it.

'He seems fairly confident doesn't he, this time?

-'This is good.'

-Nice one.

-'Now, has he got it right?'

-Really good.

-'Let's find out.

-'Yes!'

-You got time for one more.

-'15 seconds on the clock.'

-Come on, do it, do it, do it.

-'Run, run, run, Ellie! Come on!

'Place the blocks in the squares that lit up.

'Then you have to clear the grid, remember.

'This is going to be tight, come on!'

-Come on!

-'Quickly as you can!

-'Place it there.'

-Three, two,...

-'All, you're out of time.'

BUZZER

APPLAUSE

OK, come on, team, come over.

We will add those points from the challenge

to your total after the third round.

Remember, Jodie'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.

So, let's hear it one more time for Ellie's Team! Well done, guys.

Welcome back to the game, Jodie's Team. Let's play Mime Time.

Tegan, I've got three cards in my hand,

you're going to pick one,

you will then have 10 seconds to mime

whatever is on the card to the player next to you

and so on, and so on down the line. Copycats, are you ready?

THEY CHEER

Then let's close the doors.

-Right, Tegan, which card would you like? Pink, green or blue?

-Green.

-Green! Reckon you can mime that?

-Yeah.

Beautiful. You've got 10 seconds.

The best of luck. Ready, steady, mime.

Dawn, your turn.

Jodie.

Your turn.

Gaby.

Time is up. Good copying down the line, I have to say.

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

Trumpet playing?

It's not trumpet playing which means we're playing for 40 points. Gaby?

-Playing a flute?

-It's not.

Which means we're playing for 30 points.

-A recorder?

-It's not.

-It did look like that.

-No.

-But we're playing for 20 points. Jodie?

-Saxophone?

-Is not a saxophone.

Which means, we are playing for the minimum of 10 points,

Dawn, any idea?

Playing a mouth organ? I don't know.

It's not, unfortunately. Tegan?

-Playing the trombone.

-Trombone!

-Well, you said trumpet.

-Tegan, you needed that action going on.

You needed that. You needed that.

Unfortunately, guys, that means you don't get any points

but round of applause anyway.

OK, Ella, I've got blue or pink. Which one would you like?

-Blue.

-OK. Have a look at that.

-Can you do that?

-Yeah.

Oh, yeah, OK, brilliant.

Well, the best of luck to you. Ready, steady, mime.

OK, Ellie, your turn.

Your turn, Daisy.

Come on, Julie.

OK.

OK, Mark, you can stop, mate. I tell you what, it's a good workout.

Whatever it was.

OK, for a maximum of 50 points, any idea of what Mark was miming there?

-Trampolining?

-It is not trampolining. Let's open the door.

-Mark, for 40 points, what's the answer?

-Kangarooing?

It is not kangarooing.

Let's open the door for 30 points, Julie?

Workout?

It's not doing a workout. Let's open the door, for 20 points, come on.

Is it a space hopper?

Oh!

It is not a space hopper, let's open the door.

Moon jumping?

-Moon jumping?

-Yeah.

-You are going to kick yourself.

Ella?

-It was a rabbit.

-It's a rabbit!

Of course! It was a rabbit!

You don't get any points, but give them a round of applause.

-APPLAUSE

-Unlucky.

So, after Mime Time, are Jodie's team feeling brassed off?

Or are Ellie's team hopping mad?

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

'Well, Sam, after Mime Time,

'Jodie's team have 20 points, and Ellie's team have no points!'

APPLAUSE

It's time for Jodie's team to get to grips with the Copycats challenge.

Ellie's team, time for you to head out of the studio for a bit.

Take a weight off, we'll see you later. Bye!

ALL: Bye!

Right, Jodie, you now have to select three superstar players

to take on this Copycats challenge.

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

Mr D, what could it be?

'Recall. As before, patterns are illuminated

'on the floor grid before disappearing.

'Players must copy each pattern

'by placing blocks on the squares that were lit up.

'30 points are awarded for every correctly copied pattern.'

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Right, Jodie, you've chosen yourself,

-Paul and Tegan to play this. Are you ready?

-Yeah.

-Lots of support from this side?

-Yeah.

-Beautiful.

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

'Pattern number one looks like that, then.

'So this is stepdad Paul,

'first on to the grid.

'Looks like he means business.'

TEAM SHOUT ADVICE

'And plenty of encouragement from the rest of the team.

'Has he copied the pattern correctly?

'What do you think?

'We're about to find out!'

Step off the board.

'Yes, he has! Off to a good start.'

-Come on, guys!

-'That's the next one, this is Jodie playing this time.

-'Wow, this is fast.'

-OK, step off the board!

'No hesitation there. Is it correct?

'Yes!

'Third pattern for us.

'And it's Tegan's turn.'

-You can do this!

-'Come on, Tegan.

'You can do this. 50 seconds left.

'A little bit of tidying up there, possibly.

'Yeah, that's good. But is it right?

'Yes, it is!'

Well done, guys!

Oh, tricky one.

'Paul again, now.

-'Not so easy, this pattern.'

-Nice.

'This is the fourth one.

'He's having to check, having to check.

'Will he get it right in the end?

'Come on!

'Check with the rest of the team, it all happens very quickly.

'And ,yes!

'We can squeeze one more in,

'for the maximum points.

-'20 seconds left.'

-You've got 20 seconds!

'Come on.

'Quickly as you can.'

Nice work! OK, get off the board!

'Now, will this work?

'Yes, it has done! With time to spare!'

APPLAUSE

Well done, team! Come on over, come on over, guys.

Nice work!

You were fast, there!

Now, we're going to 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 for Jodie's team, that was great!

APPLAUSE

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

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

and then recreate that tune to the person next to you

using the world famous Copycats kazoo.

And then it gets copied all the way down the line.

OK, could everybody except for Ellie,

please, now, put their headphones on?

OK, our Copycats look ready. Let's close the doors!

Right, Ellie, we've got pink, blue or green, which one would you like?

-Green.

-Green, have a look at that.

Do you know that one?

-Uh...

-It's OK if you don't, because we are going to play it

into the studio so you can get the melody into your head, OK?

-I got it, yeah.

-All right, let's have a listen.

# Take a sip from a secret potion

# I'll make you fall in love

# From a spell that can't be broken

# One drop should be enough

# Boy, you belong to me

# I got the recipe

# And it's called black magic

# And it's called black magic. #

Great tune. OK, let's crack on.

Ready, steady, play. Off you go.

SHE PLAYS BLACK MAGIC ON KAZOO

That was brilliant.

SHE PLAYS A TUNE

LAUGHTER HE MOUTHS

OK, Julie!

SHE PLAYS A TUNE

LAUGHTER

Go on, Mark!

HE PLAYS A TUNE

LAUGHTER

OK, Ella.

SHE PLAYS A TUNE

Yeah!

Wonderful! Wonderful. OK.

For a maximum of 50 points, Daisy,

what's the answer I've got?

Um, is it the, um,

Oh hey, honey, I'm good...?

-I don't know what it's actually called but...

-It, it's not that.

-Oh.

It's not that, but a good guess. OK.

Let's open the door. For 40 points, what's your answer?

Is it Justin Bieber, What Do You Mean?

It is not Justin Bieber, What Do You Mean?

Let's open the door, for 30 points. Mark?

Message In A Bottle by the Police?

What a tune that is, mate!

I wish it was on my card, but it's not, I'm afraid.

Let's open the door, for 20 points, Julie, any idea?

Give Me The Night, George Benson?

-Uh, that's a lovely song as well.

-It is!

But it's not what I've got on the card, Julie,

unfortunately. Let's open the door.

For ten points. She did a brilliant, brilliant version.

-Is it Roar, Katy Perry?

-It is not, I'm afraid. Ellie?

-Black Magic.

-By Little Mix! Have a listen.

# Take a sip from a secret potion I'll make you fall in love... #

You did a great, great version. It's tough.

The music round is so tough, it really is.

Unfortunately, you don't get any points.

But give them a round of applause!

APPLAUSE

-Right, Jodie. Tough round, this one. Are you feeling confident?

-Kind of.

Kind of, OK. We've got two songs left. Pink or blue,

-which one would you like?

-Pink, please.

-Pink, take a look.

Do you know that song?

-Yeah.

-You do, excellent.

We are going to play it into the studio as well,

so you can get it in your head. Let's have a listen.

# This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it

# Been so long, I forgot how to turn it up, up, up, up, all night long

# Up, up, all night long... #

-Got it in your head?

-Yeah.

-Beautiful.

OK, you've got ten seconds. Ready, steady, play.

SHE PLAYS HEARTBEAT SONG

Very good.

SHE PLAYS A TUNE LAUGHTER

LAUGHTER

SHE PLAYS A TUNE

SHE PLAYS A TUNE

HE PLAYS A TUNE

Time is up!

I do not know what just happened.

We may as well rattle through this. Gabby, for 50 points, any idea?

-Work by Rihanna.

-No.

-40 points, Paul.

-Only Girl In The World, Rihanna.

-No.

-30 points, Elaine.

-Photograph?

-No.

-20 points, Tegan.

-Love Yourself?

-No. Ten points.

I don't know what happened to you. Open the door, please.

-Sorry, Justin Bieber.

-It's not Sorry, Justin Bieber.

Jodie, do you want to tell everybody?

-Heartbeat Song, Kelly Clarkson.

-Let's hear it.

# This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it... #

Jodie did an amazing job there!

Were you not listening to Jodie?

I'm tone deaf, obviously!

Not half!

Unfortunately, that means you get no points in the music round!

But we've saved some time, anyway!

Give them a round of applause!

APPLAUSE

So, after three rounds, Jodie's team have 20 points

and Ellie's team have no points!

Now, it's time to reveal the scores from the Copycats challenge.

Which team had the best recall,

and which team are boogieing into the Ball Room?

In today's challenge, one team scored

-120 points!

-Very good, very good.

-CROWD:

-Oooooh!

And one team...scored the maximum, 150 points!

-CROWD:

-Ooooh!

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...

..Jodie's team!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

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

Have you had a good time?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

You've been wonderful. Give it up

one more time for Ellie's team, everyone!

-APPLAUSE See you later, guys! Bye!

-Bye!

Hey, hey, hey!

Jodie's team, otherwise known as my team...

..you're through to the final! You ready for one more challenge?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

-It's time to play the Ball Room!

-Whoo!

APPLAUSE

Right, team, you have made it through to the last game,

which means you are just one step away

from taking home the seventh wonder of TV game show world.

Oh, it's the shiny Copycats trophy!

-CROWD:

-Ooooh!

Do you want to touch it? You can't! You've not earned it yet!

You've not earned it!

Jodie, team captain, who have you chosen to play?

Myself, my mam, Dawn, and my best friend, Gabby.

Fantastic. Now, before we open the doors and let you in,

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

this...

trophy.

LAUGHTER

'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!'

We are rooting for you. Good luck, are you ready? ALL: Yeah!

-Beautiful!

-Three, two, one...

BOTH: Blast the balls!

'And in the Copycats Ball Room, from left to right,

'it's mum Dawn, team captain Jodie and her best friend, Gabby.

'There we are, there's one in already.

'Come on, girls. And another one. Another two!

'This is brilliant.

'They're mounting up already.

'Jodie's doing really well.

'We're aiming to have at least 20 blue balls in the scoring cylinder

'by the time the klaxon goes.

'It's not easy, this.

'You have to catch the balls while they're in the air,

'you can't pick them up off the floor, remember?

'Time slowly ticking out.

'Oh, there's a yellow one,

'we don't need a yellow one. That will be deducted...

'..from the total.

'Just the blue ones, come on. Quickly as you can.

'Each of them now successfully catching these balls.

'Just ten seconds left.

'There goes another one, excellent.

'Five seconds.

'And another one going in, this is brilliant.

'But is it enough?'

KLAXON SOUNDS

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

This is the moment of truth.

The balls have been counted.

The result has been checked and verified.

You needed 20 blue balls to win this trophy.

Don't forget, any rogue coloured balls that have been found

have been deducted from your final score.

I can reveal that you collected...

..26 blues!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Are you happy?

-Yeah!

Excellent! Well, you're about to be happier, because guess what?

We're going to give you each... Each! ..a Copycats T-shirt!

CHEERING

In your face!

-Yes!

-Wow, what a great way to end the show.

Have you had a good time? ALL: Yeah!

I can't believe it's over!

-I'm happy!

-What's that?

-See you next week! Bye!
