Angellica Bell Remote Control Star

Have you ever wanted to control a celebrity?

Make your wish their command?

This is the show where three mates take charge of a star for the day,

controlling them through funny situations. Like these.

Kick the bench down by accident.

Squirt it at him.

Argh! Ha ha ha ha!

Now be a duck.

HE QUACKS

All the action takes place in our celebrity house.

It's rigged from top to bottom with hidden cameras and microphones.

And our remote controllers will be based here,

in this hi-tech control room,

giving their star instructions via a secret earpiece.

It's time to remote-control another star.

Let's meet today's remote controllers.

Hi, I'm Daniela, I'm extremely organised and a little bit crafty.

Hi, I'm Kamara, I'm the brains of the group

and I can't wait to meet our star.

Hi, I'm Ashae, I'm pretty cheeky

and I'm going to push this Remote Control Star to the limit.

The biggest prankster in the group is my friend Ashae.

She brought in a fake spider and put it in the boys' hair

and they started screaming all around the playground.

And we didn't get caught.

Kamara's the brainiest,

because she can always work out sums quickly without taking a long time.

Daniela's best qualities are giving us ideas,

being organised...

Sometimes she can be serious, but she's very funny.

So we've got our remote controllers. All we need now is today's star.

I am so excited about today's star. Honestly, I can't wait to meet her.

-Why?

-Because she's such a professional.

She's an amazing TV presenter. I just can't wait.

She's done CBBC, she's done Children In Need, Project Parent.

I'm so excited.

You're excited about working with a professional TV presenter?

-Yeah?

-I am here, you know.

-Sorry, talking out loud.

Today's star is top TV presenter on CBBC's Project Parent

and roving reporter on The One Show, and lots more.

Today's Remote Control Star is...

TV presenter Angellica Bell!

CHEERING

THEY SCREAM

-Hang on, hang on.

-Girl power! Woo!

Whoa, whoa, whoa! What's all that about? What's all this?

Oh, you think we can't do it, huh?

HIGH-PITCHED SCREAMING

-Angellica, thanks for coming on the show.

-No problem.

First impression of our quiet remote controllers?

Oh, yeah, they're so quiet, I think it's going to be boring. Not!

What have you got lined up for Angellica today, then?

-There's will be trouble.

-Trouble?

-We're going to petrify you!

-You're going to make me scared?

-Yeah.

-We hope you survive.

I'm worried. I was calm at first. Now I'm scared!

Be nice, please be nice!

Angellica, do you promise to obey all orders from our remote controllers,

no matter how awful they are?

I promise to take all control

and obey all orders from our remote controllers.

-Are you ready for your first challenge?

-Yes.

Here is your hidden earpiece.

Good luck. You go that way.

-Remote controllers, are you ready?

-ALL: Yes!

Let's get on with it!

Angellica's in position in the sitting room.

Four hidden cameras are covering her every move.

-It's time for the first of her three challenges.

-Oh, you're joking!

-Angellica, it's JK.

-Hi.

Now, being a TV presenter,

you always like to look your best, don't you?

Very good.

Yes, I do.

-So we've fixed it for you to have a nice mirror to preen in.

-OK.

-And look gorgeous.

-Right.

Trouble is, it's part of that flat-pack furniture

which is behind you.

-Oh, the one on the floor?

-Yeah.

And because you're a celebrity, you won't be able to make it.

Don't worry, though. We've called in a handyman to assemble it for you.

But you're going to disrupt the handyman as he tries to

put together the mirrored cabinet.

But you've still got to be able to preen in the mirror.

The remote controllers are going to help you. Are you ready?

-No, can I change my mind?

-No, you can't.

-OK.

Remote controllers, get ready for the doorbell

and then we'll start. OK.

She's got ten minutes to come up with ways

to make this the strangest job the handyman has undertaken.

Tasks will pop up on this screen.

Will the remote controllers be able to get Angellica to do them?

Here we go.

DOORBELL RINGS

OK, he's here.

Oh! Hello.

-Manu.

-Manu? M-A...?

-N-U.

-M-A-N-U, brilliant!

Thank you so much.

Jacket.

So you're a handyman, yeah?

Yeah, hang that up. Thank you so much for coming to do this.

-That's all right.

-I just need this cabinet set up.

Cos I'm really, really bad at following instructions.

You've got things to do, more interesting things!

Actually, I'm doing some papier mache today.

I work on children's TV.

-Have you done papier mache before?

-A long time ago!

I've always wanted to be a Blue Peter presenter,

but never managed to do it, cos I've been rubbish at papier mache!

HE LAUGHS

Right! One minute into the challenge and he's laughing away already!

Will the remote controllers' first task wipe the smile

right off his face?

Right, let's see how Angellica's going to tackle this.

Yeah, so have you...?

I'm using this paper here, but is there anything white,

or anything I could use to...

..to do it? Have you got any instructions for this?

Let's have a look.

Maybe I could use some of that. You don't need that, do you?

No?

-No.

-No? OK, thank you.

-You don't need these instructions, do you?

-Bingo! Good work, Angellica!

Say that you're making a boat.

I'm going to make a boat with this.

-Really?

-Yeah. What's wrong with that?

-A boat?

-A boat.

-A board?

You've got to use your imagination,

you've got to be creative.

-Out of this you're going to make a boat?

-Yeah.

Wow!

Angellica papier-macheed his instructions!

He'll have to guess how to build it now!

Let's see how far the remote controllers can take this.

Burst the balloon.

So, um, are you OK there?

Come on, Angellica!

-BALLOON BURSTS Oh!

-Nice work!

I burst the balloon by accident!

He must think Angellica's such a crackpot!

He desperately wants to get on with his work.

Can the remote controllers get her to nail this next task?

Thank you so much for coming to help. Are those all the nails?

So how do you know where to put them? The nails?

-Oh!

-Whoops!

-I'm so sorry.

-It's all right, they're still here.

Oh!

Scatter and put them somewhere else.

So he doesn't find them.

Get some of the nails and hide them somewhere else.

So tell me a bit about yourself. How long have you been doing this?

-Put them in the bowl.

-Good work!

By hiding the nails, she's stopped him

being able to ever finish that furniture!

But will he play along with this next cheeky task?

Angellica, get him to hold the mirror up for you.

I do have to go out in a minute,

but could you do me a massive favour?

Can you hold up one of those mirrors to me?

-Hold it?

-Yeah, cos there's no mirrors in here.

-Just hold it up.

-The mirror?

Yeah, just in front of you. When you work on TV,

you get paranoid about looks. Do you think I look OK?

Yes, good. I'll put it there.

I need you to hold it. All right if you hold it? Yeah, come...

That's perfect. Just for a minute.

Get him to move it around.

One second. Actually, I need more light. Can you...?

"Does my bottom look big in this?"

I need it so I can see. Do you think my bottom looks big in this?

Careful now! We all know there's only one answer to that question!

-No, it's fine.

-Good man!

-I want you to be honest.

-It's fine.

-Yeah?

-Mm-hm.

-OK.

-Two minutes to go, and two tasks completed.

Can the remote controllers score a hat-trick with these winter warmers?

Start trying the hats on.

Don't move. Don't move!

Cos I just need to try something on.

For this job I've got...they want me to come in different hats.

Say, "You've moved."

You've moved!

Look, there, don't move

"Does it make my ears look good?"

Ears? Whatever next! He only came to do some handy work.

And now they've made him become a celebrity mirror bearer.

-Has it made my ears look good?

-Very good.

There's just 30 seconds left. Can they keep this going?

-Tell him he moved again.

-Say, "You moved again."

You've moved. You keep moving.

-Sorry.

-There you go, there you go. And my bum looks fine in this?

-Yes.

-Put one hat on his head.

I'm going to put a hat on you, just so I can have an option.

I don't know whether this looks nice.

Sorry, I've messed up your hair completely.

Do you want me to show you?

-Yes.

-Time's up. Great job from the remote controllers and the star.

Let's reveal the joke.

Now listen, Manu, you look great on all these hidden cameras

that we have on you in this room.

-Where?

-Over there... Behind in there.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Round of applause for Manu. Amazing!

Manu, as you probably gathered, you're on a hidden TV show.

There's a lot of cameras as Angellica pointed out.

-Did you ever think, "This is a little bit strange?"

-Yes. Yes.

-Which bit?

-The dropping bit. I didn't know what she was doing.

She was coming close to me,

getting bags and throwing everything on the floor.

First of all, she was making a boat.

Have you ever seen a boat like that?

No, but, hey! A lot of imagination, she says.

The exciting part of that challenge

was when Angellica made the man put the hat on and hold up the mirror.

You've moved, you've moved.

Hold it. No, keep it on. You've got to keep the hat on.

When she was like, "Oh, I'm making a boat!" He got all confused.

-I'm going to make a boat with this.

-Really?

She never gave up. She was confident in what she was doing.

Remote controllers, you've done well.

-Are you ready to guide your star in the next challenge?

-Yes!

Angellica, are you prepared for the orders in the next challenge?

-As ready as I'll ever be.

-We're taking you out of the mansion

and we're putting you on the street for some public pranking.

-Look at her face!

-No!

Don't say a word. Angellica, you go and get ready.

-Remote controllers, are you ready?

-Yes.

This is going to be brilliant. Come on, let's go!

Angellica's a musician. She'll need to be for the next challenge.

She must approach random people and attempt to play an instrument

when they least expect it.

The remote controllers are watching

and controlling from inside this van and they'll be deciding

which lucky people in the park Angellica's going to perform to.

I cannot wait to hear this. First up, the kazoo.

Right, Angellica. You have 15 minutes.

It starts now. I'll pass you on to the remote controllers.

Go and find somebody to play your kazoo to.

Where shall I go now?

-Go to the guy in the van.

-Other side.

-Other side.

Excuse me, mate, excuse me, mate. Can you turn that off?

-Oh, Cheers, are you all right?

-Yeah.

Can you just listen to this tune and tell me if it's bad?

Play it really badly.

SHE PLAYS KAZOO BADLY

You're being silly.

I'm not being silly. I want to get signed and everything.

Oh, that was so rubbish! How embarrassing for Angellica!

-Move on.

-Your next instrument is going to be a trumpet.

Hide behind the tree.

-Shall I go out and play?

-Yep.

Come on, Angellica. You're supposed to play the trumpet.

-I can't hear you.

-SHE PLAYS BADLY AND COUGHS

Even worse!

Excuse me, wait a minute.

PBBBBBBBTTT! PBBBBBBBTTT!

Say, "Shall I play a song for you?"

I'm trying to play a song for you!

But it's not making a noise, is it?

I'm trying. You keep running, so I'm out of breath. Wait a minute!

This challenge isn't working.

Angellica can't even make silly sounds. It's still funny though.

Maybe to make a bigger sound, Angellica just needs a bigger horn.

Your next instrument is a tuba.

Hide it under your coat.

Take it over to the park gym.

Ask him if he exercises to music.

-Do you exercise to music?

-Pardon?

-Do you exercise to music?

-Sometimes.

-I can help you.

-Can you?

SHE PLAYS A FEW NOTES

At last she's done some sort of tune! How will it go down?

Ask him, "Is it helping?".

Is it helping? Is it helping? You want me to keep going?

Tell him it was Kelly Clarkson's new single.

It's Kelly Clarkson's new single.

That's why I didn't know it. I thought it was Baa Baa Black Sheep.

It did sound a little like Baa Baa Black Sheep.

-What a good sport that man was.

-Randomly run away now.

At the top of your voice, say that you are being attacked by a tuba.

I'm being attacked by a tuba!

Say, "Help me".

-Help me! Help!

-I'm being attacked by a large instrument.

I'm being attacked by a large instrument. Help me!

Help me! Help me!

Oh. You're my prince.

Run off without taking it.

Now that's what I call brassy. Good work, remote controllers.

That was music to our ears.

Rock, paper, scissors!

I'm a cowboy!

It's great these stars have agreed to be remote controlled.

But to make it fair, we agreed to take a taste of our own medicine.

This is JK and Joel: Remote Controlled.

This the part of the show where we have to do exactly

what we're told by remote control text message.

We never know what's coming,

but promised to obey every order, no matter how awful.

MOBILE BEEPS

-There's the message.

-What does it say?

Think I got the better deal to be honest with you.

Can't hear you. I've got headphones on.

-MOBILE BEEPS

-Text message.

-What?

-Text mess...

Text message!

Great.

How are you, sir? Fancy a dance?

Oh, would you like a dance? Come on, come on.

Do it like this. Ready? Follow me.

Do one of these.

Do a bit of a spin.

Got to put some effort in. Get some legs up. That's it. Spin round.

This little winner here. That's good. Little spin, little spin.

Little bump of the bums. Whoo!

That's it. And then like this, like... Get your legs up.

A bit of ballet, come on, a bit of ballet. Come on.

Fancy a dance? Come on. Have a dance with me. Come here.

Come in the centre. Come and have a dance with me.

Do a twirl and...

One, two, three. Oscar, my darling.

Bums. Bums. And you can both give me a peck on the cheek.

MWAH!

And yes!

Just go forward. And then back. And maybe like that, yeah.

Bit like that. Come on. That's it, that's it. All over there. That's it.

Cheers. Yes! You want a dance? I'm getting into this now.

'Pretty impressive moves, John, I must say.

'Yeah, you too.

'So no winner this time, eh? Shall we call it a draw?'

Here at the celebrity house, Angellica's in position,

and ready for her final challenge.

This time, she's up in the bedroom.

This is going to be amazing. Headphones on.

-Angellica, it's JK. Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Being a celebrity lady, you love a good pampering.

-Oh, I love it.

That's good because we've arranged for you to have a nice manicure.

-Is that it?

-Yeah, that's it. Special treat from JK and Joel.

-Yay!

-Hold on, though. It's not going to be that easy.

-You'll pretend to be fussy about who touches your hands.

-Right.

So, you won't let the beautician loose on your fingers

until she's tried it out on some ridiculous finger substitutes first,

which you'll find in that black box under the table.

The remote controllers will get you through it.

They will tell you what to say and what to do

-and you'll have 10 minutes to do it.

-Ten minutes?

-Ten minutes.

-Can't I just have a bath?

-You can have a bath if you want, love.

All right, fine.

Listen out for a doorbell. Get ready.

And remember, she knows nothing about the hidden cameras.

So, she has ten minutes to become the fussiest client ever.

Tricky tasks will be popping up on the screen

to make out remote controllers' job even harder. Let the game begin!

DOORBELL RINGS (No!)

-Hi, Angellica.

-Hi, love.

-Do you want to come in?

-OK, thank you.

-Hi!

-I'm Shireen, nice to meet you.

-What's your name?

-Shireen.

Shireen. Nice to meet you.

Tell her to show all the patterns she has.

I've never had a manicure before.

I really want to make an impression tonight.

Should we look at the false nails?

Does she do patterns? Ask that.

-So you do do patterns, though?

-Yeah, I can do them.

-Because I'm starting to get worried.

-Why?

-I don't know.

-You don't want plastics? That's OK.

-Say you want a cow print.

-Maybe a cow print?

-A cow print? OK.

-Don't you think that's funky?

-You could do a cow print.

The manicurist seems to be humouring Angellica.

But can the remote controllers get her to see the funny side

with their first challenge?

Get her to demonstrate using rubber gloves.

I know this sounds weird, and I don't talk about it with anyone,

but it's a bit of a problem. Can I put these gloves on first,

and then you demonstrate with the gloves?

-OK.

-Is that all right?

-She agreed so quickly. Good work.

"My hands are special because I play the recorder".

They've got a print there so you can pretend.

-Pretend they're your nails?

-Yeah.

-OK.

-And I play the recorder.

Just stick it on there. Let's get an idea.

What must she think of her?

Say, "Imagine the gloves are my hands".

You're laughing, imagine the gloves are my hands.

She's going along with it.

-Each to their own.

-Good sport!

-You're not going to tell people about this?

-No, I won't tell anyone.

So there's some glue...

You've got to stop smirking, she's going to get suspicious!

Say, actually, I don't like it, take it off.

-No, I don't like it.

-You don't like it.

No. Can you take it off?

Good thing it's a glove.

-Well, if you'd put it on...

-It won't come off.

The gloves are quite expensive, so be careful.

These gloves are quite expensive.

I don't think this is going to work.

Say, "Ouch!"

-Ooh, that hurts a bit.

-Am I squeezing too much?

-Yeah.

-I do apologise.

No worries.

-OK. You saved but the gloves.

-Hopefully, yes.

The manicurist is cooperating remarkably well so far.

It's time for them to crank this fake-fingered silliness up a gear.

This should be good.

Can we just do one more thing?

-Yeah?

-Can we just do it on this.

Oh, my gosh!

A bit weird, but...

We can work with it.

While she's going along with it,

it looks like she's finding it all a little odd.

How will the remote controllers handle this?

Laugh and say, "I know it's a bit weird, but I'm weird."

I know it's a bit weird, but...

Don't worry, you want to know what it looks like. I understand.

Good work, Daniella.

I know this is a bit weird, but I am weird.

I think she's come to that conclusion already, Angellica.

She's just vanished a rubber fingernail!

But with two minutes left,

can you convince her to complete the final whacky task? Game on!

I'm feeling much more relaxed with you and stuff,

-but I've got another task.

-Oh, no! She looks worried.

-You've got something weird to ask.

-I've got something weird to ask.

-Can you manicure these...

-Oh, my God!

-This is a joke.

-It's not.

I've started, because that's what I really wanted.

-Did you do this yourself?

-Yeah.

Oh, dear! The manicurist isn't sure about the sausages, is she?

One last chance to convince her, Angellica. Time's running out.

How would you put those on?

Say, "Remember, I'm weird."

I'm weird, I know it's a bit strange,

but you're helping me out here, I've got to get to this premiere.

Can you just show me how to do this?

Sorry, I just think this is a bit bizarre.

-Why don't you just have it done on you?

-I think this looks good.

Time's up.

Let's put this manicurist out of her misery misery and reveal the joke.

Say, "I think it looks good on hidden cameras."

Do you know what?

I think this looks great,

but I think you look even better on hidden cameras.

SHIREEN LAUGHS

APPLAUSE

Can I just say, if I was in your shoes,

I would have been doing exactly the same thing.

A fake hand, a hand of sausages with a hamburger in the middle -

it's slightly weird. Did you not think this was a bit strange?

Well, yeah, but, um... I was trying to be professional!

Just look at that.

What was really going through your most private thoughts?

Is she for real?

Well go and sit down, as long as you do the sausages first.

You were brilliant, well done.

-So we're not doing a manicure?

-No!

I thought that maybe when the manicurist

got all of the things out, the rubber gloves first...

Can I put these gloves on first, then you demonstrate with the gloves?

-OK...

-Then the plastic hand...

Oh, my gosh! OK.

Is this for Halloween?

And then the sausages.

-Do you think that looks good?

-I just think this is a bit bizarre.

OK. Why don't you just have it done on you?

I think this looks good.

That's probably when she thought it was a bit bizarre.

CHEERING

-Group hug!

-Here we go again, look.

HIGH-PITCHED SCREAMING

These guys, they stitched me up. You stitched me up!

-It was brilliant, though.

-Remote controllers, you excelled today.

-Kamara, what was your favourite bit?

-My favourite part was when

people keep rejecting Angellica in the park.

Excuse me, wait a minute.

My favourite part was when Angellica was acting

like she had got attacked by a tuba.

Help!

And Daniela?

The best part was when Angellica got out the sausages

-and the girl was like, "Why? Why? Why?"

-Yes, why this?

-"Why me?"

-Can you manicure this?

-This is a joke.

-It's not a joke.

Because I've started, because that's what I really wanted.

Anyway, remote controllers, we have something special for do.

-Limited edition caps.

-Yes! Oh, my gosh, they're so cool.

And also, a hoodie as well. You can put them on, yeah.

Wear them with pride so you won't forget us.

That's all we have time for today.

Until next time, when we put another star

together with three remote controllers, here on...

ALL: Remote Control Star!
