Episode 9 Copycats

'Welcome to Copycats.

'Today's Copycats are...

'Monaet-Maree's team from South East London.

'And David's team from Edinburgh.

'And here are your hosts...

'Sam and Mark.'

APPLAUSE

-BOTH:

-Hello!

Welcome to Copycats - the game show where copying is good!

-To make today's show, we need two teams.

-Standing by.

-Fun games where great copying wins you loads of points.

-Check.

And TV's most springy prize - the Copycats trophy!

AUDIENCE CHEER

It really is very springy! What a beauty.

-Shall we meet today's teams?

-Let's do it.

-All right.

AUDIENCE CHEER

-Right, Monaet, how are you?

-I'm fine, thank you.

Excellent, it's lovely to have you here.

You're team captain on this side. Introduce the gang for us.

This is my twin sister, Phoenix. This is my mum, Susan.

This is my godmother, Jackie. This is my cousin, Zunade.

And this is my brother, Daejon.

Lovely. It's lovely to have you all here.

-Are you excited, team? ALL:

-Yes.

Nice. So, twin sisters?

-Yeah.

-You must be very in sync with each other.

-No.

LAUGHTER

Oh, man! I thought that was going to be your secret weapon.

Best of luck for today. Give it up for Monaet's team.

APPLAUSE

And over here we've got David's team.

David, team captain. How are you, mate?

-I'm good, thanks.

-Fantastic.

Could you introduce the rest of the team, please?

Yep. This is my sister, Sarah. This is my dad, Graham.

This is my godfather, Tom.

This is my friend's mother, Katie. And this is my friend Charlie.

Any weak links in your team?

I wouldn't want to give that away.

LAUGHTER

That's what a captain does. Bigging up everybody. Fantastic.

Give it up for David's team, everyone.

-APPLAUSE

-Good luck.

It looks like our teams are ready for action!

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

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

And there are points galore up for grabs

when our teams face the Copycats Challenge!

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

The winner was David's team, so they're up first!

Let's play Copycats!

AUDIENCE CHEER

OK, David's team,

you'll need to show off your sketching skills and find

your inner artist for this round

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

David, you'll pick one of these three cards.

You'll then have ten seconds to draw whatever is on the card

for the player next to you, which is Sarah,

and so on, and so on, down the line.

There's a maximum of 50 points to be won in this round,

but you'll lose ten of those points for every incorrect answer

going back down the line. Copycats, are you ready?

ALL: Yes!

All right, let's close the doors!

Team captain, David.

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

-Blue.

-Blue. Have a look at that.

-My favourite colour.

-Do you reckon you can draw that?

-I reckon I can draw that.

Ready, steady, draw! Off you go.

OK, Sarah. Your turn.

OK, Charlie. Your turn.

Graham, your turn.

AUDIENCE GIGGLE

Your turn, Thomas.

OK, stop drawing.

For a maximum of 50 points,

any idea what Thomas was drawing there?

I think it's a lot of balloons on a string.

It does look like that, doesn't it? But it's not the answer I've got.

OK, let's open the door. Thomas. Any idea what Graham was drawing?

-It looked like flowers.

-It isn't right, I'm afraid.

Let's open the door. For 30 points, Graham?

It's a daisy and a cloud.

It isn't a daisy and a cloud.

OK, let's open the door. For 20 points, Charlie?

A garden?

Great guesses, but unfortunately, that is wrong.

Let's open the door. Sarah, for a minimum of ten points,

any idea? Think about it.

A sun?

It isn't the sun. David?

It was meant to be a windmill.

I tried to do an electricity sign but then forgot what it looked like.

LAUGHTER

Oh, mate. Unlucky.

You don't get any points. Give him a round of applause anyway.

APPLAUSE

All right, good luck, Monaet.

We've got two cards left. Which one would you like, pink or green?

-Pink, please.

-Take a look.

-Reckon you can draw that?

-I guess.

I suppose you're going to have to try.

You've got ten seconds. The best of luck. Ready, steady, draw!

Not bad at all.

Nice. Phoenix, your turn.

Zunade, your turn.

Jackie.

Time's up! Stop drawing.

All right, for a maximum of 50 points, what do you reckon it is?

Is it a fish?

It's not a fish.

Which means we're playing for 40 points.

Jackie, if you'd like to take a look at Zunade's.

Dolphin?

A dolphin? That's not a dolphin.

Which means we're playing for 30 points.

-Zunade.

-Is it a whale then?

It's a whale!

APPLAUSE

Nice work, Monaet. High five to that.

You get yourselves 30 points.

CHEERING

So, after Quick On The Draw,

are Monaet's team having a whale of a time?

Or can David's team still breeze into the Ball Room?

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

'Well, Sam. After Quick On The Draw, Monaet's team have 30 points

'and David's team have no points.'

All right, teams, time for one of you to face your date with destiny!

I hope you're feeling ready for the test of your talents

that we like to call the Copycats Challenge!

Yes, David's team won the toss,

so they are first to face the challenge.

Monaet's team, so that it's fair,

we don't want you to see what's going on.

-So off you go. All the best.

-Bye.

Bye, Monaet's team. Bye. Miss you already.

Now, David, as team captain, you now need to select three people

to face the dramatic Copycats Challenge.

But before you do, we need to find out what the challenge is.

Mr D, what could it be?

'Recall.

'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.'

APPLAUSE

David, you've picked yourself, Katie and Sarah to play.

-Are you all ready?

-ALL: Yes.

You look ready. The best of luck.

In three, two, one - go!

'Here we go then.

'There's the first pattern on the floor.

'Memorise it, team.

'Then let's place the blocks on the squares that were lit up.

'Playing are team captain, David, his sister, Sarah,

'and his friend's mum, Katie.

'It's Katie who's doing the best now to recall that first pattern.

'With the help of the others, of course.

'David himself looks pretty sure that he remembers it.'

There, yeah.

'And we place the blocks and clear the grid

'then we can all see whether you were right.

'There's the last one going into place. Off you go.

'It was right. Absolutely brilliant.'

-There's one...

-Go, go, go!

'Next, it's David's turn to replicate

-'that pattern just using the blocks.'

-One there!

'Will he be able to do it?

'He's taking advice, look.

'Moving it across to Charlie.

'And friends.

'And they're moving them into place

'between them. Excellent. Thumbs up.

'Excellent.

'Fair amount of discussion about all of this.

'You need to move quickly though.

'Look. We've only got 30 seconds left.'

Move it back.

'Now, will that be the right pattern?

'He's not sure, is he?

'Let's find out whether he was right.'

Are you ready? Forward to Charlie.

'Mark's right.'

-Clear the grid. Clear the grid.

-'Telling David to clear the grid.

'Let's see. Yes, it was right. Brilliant.

'Only got ten seconds left.

'But it's worth a go.

'This is Sarah. Come on.

'Not much time left.

'But let's see how you get on.'

-Yep, yep, yep.

-'They're huge, those cubes, aren't they?

-'Time is up, folks. Stop.'

-KLAXON BLOWS

Come on, guys. Come on over.

It's tough, isn't it? Really hard.

It really does go quickly. Well done.

We'll add the points from the challenge to your total after

the final round. Remember, Monaet's team still have to play

and the scores from the Copycats Challenge can make all the

difference in deciding who goes through to the Ball Room.

Let's hear it one more time for David's team! Well done, guys.

APPLAUSE

Welcome back, Monaet's team. You all right?

-ALL:

-Yeah!

-Ready for this? ALL:

-Yeah.

Beautiful. This is called Fame Game.

Phoenix, there are three cards in my hand here.

You're going to pick one.

You'll then have ten seconds to do your best

silent impression of whichever famous person or character

is written on the card.

You'll do that to each other all the way down the line.

As with every pass-it-on game, there are 50 points to play for.

But don't forget - you'll lose ten points for every wrong answer

coming back down the line. Do we understand?

-ALL:

-Yes!

-In that case, let's close the doors.

Phoenix, we've got three cards - blue, green or pink.

Blue, please.

Take a look.

Do you reckon you can do

-an impression? Yeah? OK.

-Yeah.

The best of luck.

You've got ten seconds.

Ready, steady, mime!

OK, Zunade.

AUDIENCE LAUGH

OK, Susan. Your turn.

Jackie, go for it.

Monaet, your turn.

HE GIGGLES

Time is up!

Right, don't forget. We're looking for a famous person or character.

Daejon, what do you reckon?

Jamie Oliver? I don't know.

It's not Jamie Oliver.

Which means we're playing for 40 points.

-Monaet?

-Dynamo.

It's not Dynamo. Which means we're playing for 30 points.

Jackie, any idea?

I was going to go for Venus Williams, tennis player.

Ah, OK. Yes. I see what...

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

Susan, what do you reckon Zunade was doing?

I don't know. Robson Green doing fishing.

It's not, unfortunately.

We're playing for ten points.

Zunade, what do you reckon?

-Maybe Serena.

-Serena Williams?

-Yeah.

It's not, unfortunately. It wasn't a tennis player.

-Phoenix, who was it?

-It was Harry Potter.

Harry Potter.

GROANING

It's really difficult, that. It is really difficult.

Unfortunately, that means that at the end of the Fame Game,

you don't get any points. Give them a round of applause.

APPLAUSE

David, we've got pink and green left.

Which one would you like?

-Green, please.

-OK. Have a look at that.

Do you reckon you could do

an impression of that?

I think so, yeah.

All right, best of luck.

Let's try it.

Ready, steady, mime!

OK, Graham, your turn.

LAUGHTER

OK, Charlie.

OK, Sarah.

Katie, your turn.

OK, stop miming.

I thought that was quite good, actually.

OK, for a maximum 50 points, Thomas?

Bob Dylan.

It isn't Bob Dylan. Let's open the door. Good guess.

For 40 points, Katie, come on.

I think it was Madonna.

It is not Madonna.

Let's open the door. For 30 points, Sarah. Come on.

You did a great version.

What do you think?

Justin Bieber.

It's not Justin Bieber.

Let's open the door.

-Charlie?

-Is it Elvis?

-Yes!

Well done, mate.

He was the King. He was the King, Elvis Presley.

Well done. You get yourselves 20 points.

-Well done.

-APPLAUSE

So, after the Fame Game, have Monaet's team still got that magic

touch, or are David's team rocking and a-rolling to the Ball Room?

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

'Well, Sam, after the Fame Game, Monaet's team have 30 points

'and David's team have 20 points.'

-Close!

-It is a close one.

OK, it's time to turn up the pressure again now

and ask Monaet's team to take on the Copycats Challenge!

David's team - time for you to head out of the studio.

Have a piece of cake and a cup of tea. Off you go.

-Or a juice.

-Sounds nice, that.

-Whatever you want. Go on.

-Get out of here.

-Bye!

Monaet, as team captain, you have to select three people to take on

this challenge, but before you do that, let's see what's in store.

Mr D, what could it be?

'Recall.

'As before, 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.'

All right, Monaet, you've chosen Daejon, Zunade and Phoenix

-to take on this challenge.

-Yes.

-Are you confident in their ability?

-Yes, very.

Beautiful. The best of luck, guys. We're rooting for you.

Three, two, one - go!

'And there is the first pattern for Monaet's team.

'Zunade to start with.

'Team captain, Monaet, has very clear views... Look.

'..on which block goes where.

'Zunade seems happy taking the advice though.

'Putting them in place. She's got her own ideas

'of where those cubes should go as well,

'which is good to see.'

-Put the other one next to the...

-'Keep moving whatever you do.

'Come on, Zunade. You can't spend a lot of time on this.'

-Step off the board.

-'Let's see if that's correct.

-'It is. Excellent.'

-Next one, here we go.

'First pattern recalled perfectly.

'It's a good start. 50 seconds remaining.

'Keep up the pace.

'This is impressive so far.'

All the way up the back, Daejon.

'This is good. Daejon not hanging around, is he, on this?

'Look at this.'

Leave that one there!

'Really good.'

-Yes! No, no...

-'He needs the advice. And he's taking it.

'Let's see if that's right.

'That one is as well. Excellent.

'Second pattern accomplished then.'

Move that one over.

'Just over 20 seconds left. Come on.

-'This is Phoenix.'

-Move that one diagonally.

'Help coming from all directions.

'But we are running out of time.'

-Yeah, one more!

-'Keep going.'

'One more pattern would be really good.'

That one, here.

-That one there.

-'Just a few seconds left.'

OK, quickly step off.

-Quickly step off.

-'Good advice from Sam.

'Oh, wasn't quite there.'

APPLAUSE

OK. Come on over. Come on over.

We will add those 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 give it up for Monaet's team, everyone. Well done.

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

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

and then play it for the person next to you on the Copycats kazoo.

There are a maximum of 50 points up for grabs,

but as always, you will lose ten points for every incorrect answer.

-Understand?

-ALL:

-Yes.

OK, could everybody except for Thomas now put your headphones on?

Our Copycats look ready! Let's close the doors!

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

-Green.

-He's gone for green, like his top. Let's have a look.

Do you know that song?

HE LAUGHS

Your face suggests no.

But we are going to play it into the studio

so you can get the melody in your head.

Let's play it.

MUSIC: Uptown Funk by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars

OK, for a maximum of 50 points,

Katie, what's the answer we're looking for?

Scotland The Brave?

LAUGHTER

It isn't Scotland The Brave.

OK, let's open the door.

For 40 points, any idea what Charlie was supposed to be playing?

Happy Birthday?

Happy Birthday... No, it's not Happy Birthday. Let's open the door.

Charlie, come on. For 30 points.

Hello.

It is not Hello. Good guess though.

Let's open the door. Graham.

It's An Adventure Of A Lifetime.

It's not It's An Adventure Of A Lifetime.

Let's open the door.

For a minimum of ten points...

Seven Years Old.

Great tune, that. Unfortunately, it's the wrong answer.

-Thomas, what is it?

-It's something to do with funk.

It's Uptown Funk. Let's have a listen.

MUSIC: Uptown Funk by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars

Ah, that was brilliant.

Unfortunately, you don't get any points.

But give them a round of applause.

Thomas, you entertained me. You entertained me.

All right, Monaet. We've got two cards left. Blue or pink,

which one would you like?

-Blue, please.

-Take a look.

-Thank you.

Do you know that song?

Don't worry.

We'll play it into the studio.

Let's have a listen.

MUSIC: Waterloo by ABBA

# Waterloo Couldn't escape if I wanted to

That was horrible.

Daejon, your face!

For 50 points, what do you think the song is?

-Happy by Pharrell Williams. I don't know.

-It's not.

Which means we're playing for 40 points.

Jackie, any idea?

Rihanna - Work?

It's not Rihanna - Work.

Phoenix, 30 points.

-I'm just going to say Postman Pat.

-It's not.

Which means we're playing for 20 points.

Zunade, any idea?

Single Ladies.

It's not Single Ladies. We're playing for the minimum

of ten points.

Susan, any idea?

-Is it Sorry?

-It's not Sorry.

Monaet, do you want to tell everybody?

-It was Waterloo by Abba.

Let's have a listen.

MUSIC: Waterloo by ABBA

Look at your face! Look at Jackie's face!

All I heard was du-du-du-dah-dah. That's all I heard.

Yeah, Waterloo.

HE LAUGHS

Unfortunately, at the end of the Music Round,

you don't get any points. But that was very entertaining.

Give them a round of applause. APPLAUSE

'So, after three rounds, Monaet's team have 30 points

'and David's team have 20 points.'

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

Which team romped home at Recall?

And which team are waltzing into the Ball Room?

In today's challenge, one team scored 60 points.

AUDIENCE OOHS

And one team also scored 60 points.

AUDIENCE OOHS

Interesting!

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...

..Monaet's team!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Which means... You've been fantastic.

..we've got to say goodbye to David's team.

-Have you enjoyed yourselves?

-ALL:

-Yes!

-You've been wonderful.

Give it up for David's team, everyone. Take care.

APPLAUSE Bye, guys!

Monaet's team, congratulations!

-You weren't expecting that, were you? ALL:

-No!

To be honest, neither was I. I'm not going to lie.

But you're here. You're in the final.

-Are you ready for one last round? ALL:

-Yeah!

It's time to play the Ball Room.

Monaet's team, congratulations for making it this far.

You are just one step away from holding

the shiny, springy beauty of the Copycats trophy!

Look how gorgeous it is.

OK, Monaet, who have you chosen to play?

My brother, Daejon, my cousin, Zunade, and myself.

OK, the best of luck. 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.'

-Team, are you ready? ALL:

-Yes!

The best of luck.

-Three, two, one...

-BOTH:

-Blast the balls!

'It's Zunade, Daejon and Monaet left to right.

'Monaet there thoroughly enjoying herself by the look of it.

'Yes, she is.

'In goes one of the blue balls.

'Looking for 20 in total in that cylinder.

'Quite a few in there already though. That's good.

'It looks like it should be easy, this game. It isn't.

'Believe you me.

'Zunade really working hard in there.

'So is Daejon. Well done.

'Another one going in.

'And they're mounting up, look.

'Only 25 seconds remaining though.

'Come on, guys.

'That is Daejon's hand, I think.

'He really has got the hang of this, hasn't he?

'Come on, guys, time's running out. Ten seconds left.

'Quickly, team. Come on.

'Daejon concentrating.

'Picking out the blue balls from the air

'and putting them in the cylinder.

'Have we got enough? Let's find out.'

KLAXON BLOWS

APPLAUSE

Well done, guys. It's tough, that, isn't it?

-ALL:

-Yes.

OK, well, the balls have been counted

and the result has been checked and verified.

You needed 20 blue balls to win this trophy.

I can reveal that you collected...

..20 blue balls!

THEY CHEER

On the money!

Wow! Well done!

-BOTH:

-Hold it up in the air!

CHEERING

Congratulations. Are you happy?

-Yes!

-So you should be.

Hey! Hey! They weren't on the money,

they were on the Monaet.

LAUGHTER

Monaet don't get it. Hey.

Hey. Guess what?

We're going to give you

some Copycats T-shirts as well!

CHEERING Crazy. Crazy.

What a great end to the show.

I just can't believe it's over.

I know, I can't believe it's over.

It's been a fantastic show.

-We'll see you next time on Copycats.

-Bye.

-ALL:

-Bye!
