0:00:02 > 0:00:05- It's that time again! - Welcome to Splatalot.
0:00:05 > 0:00:07We invite 12 brave warriors to go head-to-head
0:00:07 > 0:00:11with the dastardly and downright devious defenders
0:00:11 > 0:00:13as they compete to capture the Splatalot crown.
0:00:13 > 0:00:18Will the attackers take over the kingdom and reign victorious?
0:00:18 > 0:00:21Or will the defenders succeed in protecting their castle?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Who will tumble? Who will teeter? And who will go...
0:00:26 > 0:00:29Splat?
0:00:29 > 0:00:32- Hello, I'm Dick.- I'm Dom.- I'm Tinkor.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35Welcome to the modern-day medieval world that is Splatalot.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38- You say that...- Yes, I do. In fact, I just did say that!
0:00:38 > 0:00:42What date would you say modern-day medieval was, exactly?
0:00:42 > 0:00:46- Exactly?- Exactly. - Sunday, the 25th of June, 1973.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50- No, I said exactly. - Just before tea time.- Thank you!
0:00:50 > 0:00:53That's the date sorted. What about Splatalot itself?
0:00:53 > 0:00:57- Can it be summed up in one word? - Hmm...difficult.- Yes, I like it!
0:00:57 > 0:01:01I haven't started yet. It's difficult to sum it up in one word.
0:01:01 > 0:01:06- Oh.- However, with Tinkor's help, I can sum it up in one sound.
0:01:06 > 0:01:07SPLAT!
0:01:07 > 0:01:11It might be easier to show you Splatalot in slightly more detail.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Yes. Yes, it might.
0:01:13 > 0:01:18The six fastest attackers to cross the moat will be given the chance
0:01:18 > 0:01:20to escape the Stockade.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Only four will succeed and make it into the final.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26Yes, I definitely prefer the explanation.
0:01:26 > 0:01:27But I still think... SPLAT!
0:01:27 > 0:01:29..sums up the show as well.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32But if you prefer, we can look at Round One in even more detail.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35The pungent plank kicks off the Moat Challenge,
0:01:35 > 0:01:38then it's up the slippery slope, along the rolling mace
0:01:38 > 0:01:41and down the impossible incline. The beastly battle-axes are next,
0:01:41 > 0:01:44followed by the rope bridge of disaster,
0:01:44 > 0:01:46and the debilitating disc to finish.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Yes, I'm definitely preferring the explanation!
0:01:49 > 0:01:52I know what you mean, but there's something about...
0:01:52 > 0:01:53SPLAT!
0:01:53 > 0:01:56..that you can't put into words. Thank you, Tinkor.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Scuttle off so I can introduce you and the other defenders.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00- Are you all right?- Shut up!
0:02:00 > 0:02:04- They literally broke the mould when the made him.- Tinkor!
0:02:04 > 0:02:07- Next, our foul feathered friend. - Kookaburra!
0:02:07 > 0:02:09- And finally...- Ballista!
0:02:09 > 0:02:13- They have one simple goal. - Defend the castle!
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Well done, Kook. You've summed it up perfectly.
0:02:15 > 0:02:20- Obviously not as perfect as... - Stop! I'll save you the bother.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22SPLAT
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Lovely. Let's start Round One.
0:02:24 > 0:02:29Tinkor has the vaporiser. Kook is acting strangely at the water drop.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31And Ballista is...doing her nails.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32Here's Lucas.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35VEGETARIAN POWERS ACTIVATE!
0:02:35 > 0:02:39Dom, you're a veggie. What kind of power is he talking about?
0:02:39 > 0:02:42I'm not really sure but it seems to be working.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44He's making the pungent plank look easy.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Lucas, I don't think we can get along
0:02:46 > 0:02:48cos you're vegetarian and I'm a huntress!
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Uh-oh.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Tag!
0:02:53 > 0:02:57Oh, oh. Oh, fugwert! There's our first splat of the day.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01We've seen it before. He answered back and paid for it
0:03:01 > 0:03:04with a fugwert in the builder's brew.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08Like a rubber ball, he bounces back... Nutty fudgekins!
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Not so much rubber ball, more like football.
0:03:11 > 0:03:12Nutty fudgekins and back of the net.
0:03:12 > 0:03:17- Come on, Lucas. How bad do you want the crown?- I want it!
0:03:17 > 0:03:18SCREAMING
0:03:18 > 0:03:19What's Tinkor up to?
0:03:19 > 0:03:22It's hard to say. His world is very different.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25Lucas now struggling on the second axe. Tinkor isn't helping there.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Ooh, that's going to leave a mark.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Splats don't get any bigger than that!
0:03:29 > 0:03:33Lucas falls from the highest point and splats the other axe
0:03:33 > 0:03:35before landing in the moat.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Good lad.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38How about some water?
0:03:38 > 0:03:41So far, the defenders have made Lucas's life very tricky.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- Ha-ha-ha!- I am not a chicken! I'm a kookaburra!
0:03:47 > 0:03:53He's right. This is a chicken. And this is Kookaburra. Quite different.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Back with Lucas at the debilitating disc.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59This is never easy but it's a well-balanced start and... Oh, no!
0:03:59 > 0:04:01- Into the googage water. - Lucas back flips
0:04:01 > 0:04:05and lands head-first in the gizoid.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08Nice celebration, taunting Kook with his chicken dance.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10You can't stay away!
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Yes, Nicole. But can YOU stay away from Ballista's splatzooka?
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Nicole, really? Really, for a war cry?
0:04:16 > 0:04:20Ballista's not impressed and... wallopy-do!
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Those balls can't stay away from Nicole
0:04:22 > 0:04:28and neither can the spikes here, here, here, here, here
0:04:28 > 0:04:30and into the blingwad.
0:04:30 > 0:04:31Onto the battle-axes,
0:04:31 > 0:04:37and Tinkor's remembered to use his vaporiser this time. Ooh!
0:04:37 > 0:04:40And the axes provide their second big splat of the day.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Kook can't even look!
0:04:42 > 0:04:45She's made it over... No, she hasn't! Mud muncher!
0:04:45 > 0:04:49It was an up-and-down round, but Nicole finishes in six minutes.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53Looks like Kook can't cope with her victory dance, though.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Oh, my eyes are stinging! Oh, my gosh.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Time for our next attacker. Here's Shania.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Purple dinosaur!
0:05:00 > 0:05:03- Come on, Shania, let's play. - This could end in tears.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Shania! Sha-Sha-Shania!
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Sha-Sha-Sha-splat.
0:05:08 > 0:05:12Purple-dinosaur-loving Shania is at the mace. Can she cross it?
0:05:12 > 0:05:13Fopsberk!
0:05:13 > 0:05:17- I think she was distracted by SOMETHING.- I think you're right!
0:05:17 > 0:05:20It didn't stop her completing the course in 6:32.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22- She seems very happy with that.- So's Tinkor.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24I LOVE this wetsuit!
0:05:24 > 0:05:26You can't have it. It's rented.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30- Hi.- Ballista's getting friendly.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34- Now she's getting all fiery! - This can't end well.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37- Now she's getting REALLY fiery! - But she's missed!
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Ohhh...klinge muffler!
0:05:40 > 0:05:43If the defender doesn't splat you, the course will.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45- What's that? - One of Tinkor's moat mates.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Here's Mitchell on the incline. Here he goes...
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Oh, belly slaphead!
0:05:51 > 0:05:54A case of the left foot not knowing what the right was doing,
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Mitchell's in the moat, really testing the wetsuit!
0:05:57 > 0:05:59And really testing the other attackers,
0:05:59 > 0:06:01because that's the fastest time so far.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04Can it be beaten by our next attacker, Benito?
0:06:04 > 0:06:07THIS...IS...
0:06:07 > 0:06:08You can't beat that.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Hi, Benito!
0:06:10 > 0:06:12- Inverness!- Oh! Ha ha!
0:06:12 > 0:06:14Ballista's warm welcome is cold comfort for Benito
0:06:14 > 0:06:17after that Inverness. Can he recover?
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Oh... Oh, widget! No, he can't.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25I think he was distracted again. We really need to drain that moat.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29- All right, Burrito!- Did he say burrito?- He meant Benito.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32- He said burrito!- His name's Benito! - Benito's burrito?- Benito's Benito!
0:06:32 > 0:06:36- # Let's call the whole thing splat! # - Benito Burrito finishes in 4:49.
0:06:36 > 0:06:37Oh, it's disgraceful!
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Here's Ana!
0:06:39 > 0:06:41I love fluffy white dogs! Ruff!
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Hoo! Splat.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47That's an impressive start. Not white and fluffy, just pretty rough-y.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51Ana walking the plank, the pungent plank, that is.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- But she's heading downstairs. - What?- Look!- Oh, yeah! Very good.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59Here she is at the battle-axes. And Tinkor lets one go.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02Lovely! Oh, she's wobbling.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06Oh, and fettuccini primavera! Was that all down to Tinkor?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09No, it wasn't. Look again. You'll see Ballista's got her
0:07:09 > 0:07:11- with a sneaky back splat. - That was too much for Ana.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14She's OK but stops there. She does not finish the course.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17So, halfway through, Benito Burrito leads,
0:07:17 > 0:07:20and Sha-Sha-Sha-Shania is in the danger zone.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23But no-one's REALLY safe yet,
0:07:23 > 0:07:25because with six more attackers to come,
0:07:25 > 0:07:27we don't know who'll go through. WE DON'T KNOW!
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Easy, easy!
0:07:29 > 0:07:32But I can see why you're getting so excited and agitated.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35This round and the crown are still up for grabs.
0:07:37 > 0:07:42OK, here's a quiz to see if you were really listening in the first half.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- Put this blindfold on and stand on one leg.- Why?- It's the rules.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47- Oh.- OK. Who loves his wetsuit? - Er, Mitchell.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- What did Lucas call Kookaburra? - Er, Chicken Man.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54- Who can't stay away?- You can't stay away!- Yes, but who said it?
0:07:54 > 0:07:56- Nicole.- Who loves purple dinosaurs? - Er, give us a clue.
0:07:56 > 0:08:01- Shh, shh.- (Give us a clue.) - That IS the clue!- Mm...Shania!
0:08:01 > 0:08:05And finally, what is this Mexican snack? Sniff it and lick it.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09- Benito!- Burrito! Brilliant!
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Here's a reminder of the first half.
0:08:11 > 0:08:16So, is that it, then? We finished? Dick?
0:08:16 > 0:08:19The first-half attackers aren't the fastest ever,
0:08:19 > 0:08:23but they're all evenly matched, which means the course is tricky today.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Hello! Anybody?
0:08:26 > 0:08:29Can the remaining attackers get around any quicker?
0:08:29 > 0:08:32These are the times they'll have to beat.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35- Ahh!- Back to the course.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Awwwwwooooooo!
0:08:37 > 0:08:40I know just how you feel, Julian.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42He howls like a wolf and runs like a fox.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44- Get this guy some bubble bath! - Hey, Julian!
0:08:44 > 0:08:49- Uh-oh.- Porter down! Ballista continues where she left off.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51But he's at the mace. He's sprinting...
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Oh, no, now he's splatting.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55This might be why we've not had any fast times.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57The mace has stopped everyone so far.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01He needs to be careful on the incline - speed... Oh!
0:09:01 > 0:09:02..never works.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Speed demon Julian needs to occasionally take his foot
0:09:05 > 0:09:09- off the accelerator.- He makes it over in the fastest time today.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Well done, Howlin' Wolf!
0:09:11 > 0:09:14Here's our next attacker, Katrina, who also didn't cross the mace.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Let's do it up!
0:09:16 > 0:09:19What's going on, Chicken Ma- Oh... I mean, Kook!
0:09:19 > 0:09:25- I had a cat called Katrina once. - You did?- She couldn't swim either!
0:09:25 > 0:09:29Ooh, a bit harsh. Buh-buh-bum-bum-bum cakes!
0:09:29 > 0:09:33Kook's taunting and the incline's daunting, quite a combination.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36- What will Katrina make of the disc? - And what will the disc make of her?
0:09:36 > 0:09:39- Turn this up, T. - Kook wants more water pressure.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- Thank you!- Tink delivers and... - Boosh! So does Katrina.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Up goes the water pressure, and down goes Katrina.
0:09:45 > 0:09:46The second back flip of the day.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Katrina finishes with an impressive 5:43.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52- Yeah, you know! Ooh, chemistry. Whoo!- Even Kook's impressed.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Let's get wet!
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Sounds like Taylor knows what's coming.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59Taylor, there's NO way you're going to make it across this mace wheel.
0:09:59 > 0:10:04My buddy Tinkor made it. No way you're getting across.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06Ballista's right. No-one's made it across today.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10Humpty dumper! And neither has Taylor! She's in the moat.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14She gives the mace a big hug before splatting in the love lav.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Will she give the incline a big hug?
0:10:17 > 0:10:18Ooh! Gherkin Nora.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21This has it all. Taylor loses her grip,
0:10:21 > 0:10:24Tinkor emits the perfect cloud, and she disappears
0:10:24 > 0:10:26before getting totally gherkined.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28And Taylor finishes in a healthy time of 5:27
0:10:28 > 0:10:31which will be enough to see her through.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34- Here's Stefan!- I'm hungry! - Well, that's nice!
0:10:34 > 0:10:38- Are you thirsty?- Want to know what I do when I'm hungry?
0:10:38 > 0:10:40I HUNT! Splat!
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Splat indeed and Stefan's down.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46He's sliding all the way back down into the camomile lotion.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49It's like Ballista's turned it into a game of Snakes and Ladders.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52But he's made it to the debilitating disc.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54- What will Kook throw at him? - Water pressure's building.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58It looks like it's on maximum. Bangly diggeridoos!
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Stefan finishes in 5:29, which is good enough to qualify.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05I'm the Queen of this castle!
0:11:05 > 0:11:08- Not yet, you're not! - Luck of the battle-axe!
0:11:08 > 0:11:10Uh-oh! Tinkor's getting a bit overexcited!
0:11:10 > 0:11:14He'll need a nap after this. She steps onto the axe
0:11:14 > 0:11:17- but Tinkor isn't letting up.- It's like he's frozen her to the spot!
0:11:17 > 0:11:19This is against the clock, Audrey.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Not often you see Kook lost for words.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26- Maybe she'll be Queen of the battle-axes instead.- Come on, Audrey!
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Yeah, she really needs to get a move on now.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32- I could be sleeping still! - You should go back to bed.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36- Oh, look. The defenders have started to nod off.- Tinkor hasn't.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40I don't think you pacing up and down's going to speed her up!
0:11:40 > 0:11:44- Look, she's still there. - Oh, come on Audrey, please!
0:11:44 > 0:11:48Amazingly, Tinkor's still got some gas left.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52It's NO good. I need the loo!
0:11:52 > 0:11:56Oh, wait a minute. She's moving. Dom, you're missing it!
0:11:56 > 0:12:00After ALL that time, she's up, onto the second axe, she's over.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03- Dom! Dom!- Still there, is she?
0:12:03 > 0:12:07Oh, great. I was only gone for a minute!
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Audrey's also gone. She wasn't fast enough.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12- Here's final attacker, Chyrelle. - Crazy monkeys!
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- IMITATES MONKEY - That's woken everyone up.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19- And she attacks the course like a crazy monkey!- Look at her go!
0:12:19 > 0:12:23I'm so glad you're here. I thought you were going to miss the party!
0:12:23 > 0:12:27Now we can have some fun! Whoo!
0:12:27 > 0:12:31- Whoo! What happened?- Crazy monkey Chyrelle tried to hurdle the mace
0:12:31 > 0:12:32but it wasn't having it.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35The mace has beaten all 12 attackers today, a new record.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Here she is at the incline.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Amazingly, Tinkor still has some vapour left.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43Ooh! Hairy man mould!
0:12:43 > 0:12:46- Round of applause for Chyrelle. - Yes! Put your feathers together.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Who'd like to see THAT again?!
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Cue the splats!
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Oh, yes! That's why we call it Splatalot.
0:13:01 > 0:13:07- Not only is she fine, she's through and Kook's loving it.- Can't stop me!
0:13:07 > 0:13:11Joining her in Round Two will be:
0:13:11 > 0:13:15That was one of the most challenging rounds we've ever had.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18But as always, it's whittled the attackers down to the six fastest.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20And they'll be moving onto the Stockade.
0:13:20 > 0:13:24This round determines who will make it to the final,
0:13:24 > 0:13:27so it's going to get very splatty indeed!
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Round Two has a lot to live up to after Round One, wouldn't you agree?
0:13:32 > 0:13:33TINKOR CHUCKLES
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Yes. The biggest star so far has been the course itself.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40The moat really tested the attackers today. I think you'd agree.
0:13:40 > 0:13:46- What are you doing? Oi! Clear off! - Sorry, mate. I thought it was you.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49You know, the height and the... BLOWS RASPBERRY
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Charming(!) So 12 have become six.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Here's a reminder of the attackers who've made it thus far.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58Fastest to slowest, we have:
0:13:58 > 0:14:02The attackers begin by crossing the barrel-infested hexagon.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05Then they leap onto the hexapods to grab the rungs
0:14:05 > 0:14:08- to build their ladders.- Once built, they can grab a flag and escape,
0:14:08 > 0:14:11but with only four flags, two won't make it.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13To make things harder, three new defenders:
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Blue ninja, Shaiden,
0:14:15 > 0:14:18blue winger, Thorne,
0:14:18 > 0:14:21- and finally...- Aaaah! - ..the one and only Skabb.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24- Splat! - Splat!
0:14:25 > 0:14:28The attackers are looking focused.
0:14:28 > 0:14:33- So are the defenders.- I'm going for the one on the blue ladder.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Chyrelle, in the light-green helmet.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39Taylor's in the pink. Benito's in dark green. Julian's in light blue.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43- Stefan's in red. Katrina in purple. - They'll soon be foam-coloured!
0:14:44 > 0:14:46KLAXON BLASTS
0:14:46 > 0:14:48They're off! Onto the hexagon and over the barrels.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51Skabb's straight in with the goo grenade.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54- Not so tough now, are you? - Shaiden goes for goo, too.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Katrina leaps but doesn't land cleanly so has to try again.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Ooh, it's getting tasty. Lots of jostling going on.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03Here's the foam I was talking about.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06Skabb decides to add slime to the mix.
0:15:06 > 0:15:07Julian has the first rung.
0:15:07 > 0:15:11Taylor nails her landing on the pod. But just look at that foam fountain!
0:15:11 > 0:15:14She ignores it and claims her first rung.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18- Katrina also has a rung. - Stefan leaps onto the pod,
0:15:18 > 0:15:20but Julian flops into the foam.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24- It was a face-first foam-filled flop.- How fernickety.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Benito Burrito is now joining the foam fest,
0:15:26 > 0:15:30- but he has his first rung.- Thorne seems very happy with his work.
0:15:31 > 0:15:36- Chyrelle leaping like a crazy monkey.- Doncaster!
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Skabb uses the splatzooka to get Katrina.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41And it's all getting very messy in the middle
0:15:41 > 0:15:44making the attackers sitting targets.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46- That was me.- That was good!
0:15:46 > 0:15:48Yes, with a little help from Shaiden
0:15:48 > 0:15:51and Stefan, who knocked Katrina over on her bot-bot.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54She won't mind - she and Julian have another rung each.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57They leap together. Julian makes it to the barrel
0:15:57 > 0:16:00but Katrina doesn't. She goes for a dunking in the foam.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03And comes out looking like the Abominable Splatman.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06The foam is taking its toll now and slowing everyone down.
0:16:06 > 0:16:11Taylor still has the energy to leap, though, and just manages to hold on.
0:16:11 > 0:16:16Skabb's spotted Julian finishing his ladder and gives him a little slime.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19- That's a bucketful! - It didn't bother Julian
0:16:19 > 0:16:22so Skabb took it to the next level.
0:16:22 > 0:16:26Chyrelle now with a rung and a foam overcoat. Splatty-tatty-tip-top-tum.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30Everything's getting slippy, so everything's getting splatty, too.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33This looks promising. Julian has the first flag.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37- He makes his way to the ladders. - Julian won the first round
0:16:37 > 0:16:41so it looks like he'll enter the final with a perfect record.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Taylor isn't too far behind. She has the second flag.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47This round is really hotting up. I'm sure Katrina agrees.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Taylor and Julian at the top.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53- They're through. Ooh! Hugs all around, eh?- Nothing wrong with a hug.
0:16:53 > 0:16:57Even Katrina's hugging the pod. Really hugging it. Katrina, let go!
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Benito and Stefan both get another rung.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03A great leap from Chyrelle! But not a great landing.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06And all the while the attackers are pelted by the defenders.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Four attackers out there. But only two flags remain.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Someone needs to make a move. Maybe Katrina will.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16- Ohh!- Just as she was about to throw the paintball back at the defenders,
0:17:16 > 0:17:20Skabb takes aim and splats her. Mother Gizzy!
0:17:20 > 0:17:25The flags are up for grabs. Shaiden making it hard for Chyrelle.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Katrina's recovered from the splat
0:17:27 > 0:17:31and...she's going for a flag! In fact, she grabs two.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33- Greedy Katrina! - And she heads for the ladders.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37Meanwhile, here's Benito with his last rung.
0:17:37 > 0:17:42Here's Katrina at the top joining Taylor and Julian in the final.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46Benito has the final flag and goes to his ladder. Just a few steps!
0:17:46 > 0:17:49- Chyrelle makes one last leap... - As Benito makes it through.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53And that's the end of the round!
0:17:53 > 0:17:56We say goodbye to Chyrelle and Stefan. No reward for them.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59They have to find their own way out.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00There IS a reward for this lot.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04Yes, there is. The final and the crown await our finalists.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09They've done well getting this far,
0:18:09 > 0:18:11but there's still one huge "obstockle" left.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14There are several huge "obstockles" remaining.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17They've got teeter-totters, slime sticks, slippery splats,
0:18:17 > 0:18:21even more splats, slippy slides and lots more.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27- What have we learned today so far? - We discovered early on
0:18:27 > 0:18:30- that we can sum up Splatalot in a single sound.- Put it away!
0:18:30 > 0:18:33Plus, you don't know a Benito from a burrito.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36I was blindfolded! What have we learned about the attackers?
0:18:36 > 0:18:40- I'll lend you my stat hat and you can find out for yourself.- Exciting.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Here we go. Julian is the red-hot favourite.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44He's won the Moat and Stockade.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48Taylor has a slight edge over Katrina but they both look strong.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51That leaves Benito, who struggled a bit in the last round,
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- but still made it to the final. Wowsers, that was amazing!- Yes.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56So today's finalists are:
0:18:58 > 0:19:01And here are their opponents, all six defenders,
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Kook, Ballista, Thorne, Tinkor, Skabb and Shaiden.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Here's the Capture The Crown round.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09The attackers drop into the mud baths.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Then there's a glide over the slippery slides
0:19:12 > 0:19:14to the Titanic teeter-totters.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17They go to the barrier of all barriers over the lily pad lake.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20Then it's up the water wall to the Splatalot crown.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Benito's in green, Katrina's in purple,
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Julian's in blue and Taylor wears pink.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28One, two, three, four! # Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh
0:19:28 > 0:19:32- # Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh! # - Another terrifying battle cry.
0:19:32 > 0:19:33KLAXON BLARES
0:19:33 > 0:19:36They're off. Down into the mud baths.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38Kook and Skabb waiting
0:19:38 > 0:19:40but Julian and Taylor are just too quick.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44Benito and Katrina not so fast on the slippy slides, though.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- Ooh! Careful, Katrina! - Julian's first up on the teeter.
0:19:47 > 0:19:48Is this a new tactic?
0:19:48 > 0:19:51Oh, dear. Kook is adding to his collection of feathers
0:19:51 > 0:19:54and swapping fashion tips.
0:19:54 > 0:19:55Is this the right time?
0:19:55 > 0:19:58They might be deliberately distracting the attackers.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01Benito's taken the bait! Oh, fuddle. Down he goes.
0:20:01 > 0:20:06- And Taylor's down, too.- Julian looks focused and heads for the barrier.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08He's nearly there... Sidmouth!
0:20:08 > 0:20:10As he's about to climb up, Ballista splats him,
0:20:10 > 0:20:13which means he has to go back to the teeter.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Time for Katrina to have a go.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18She sprints, and oh, mud puddle! She splats.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Benito under attack from Tinkor.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22It doesn't make that teetering any easier!
0:20:22 > 0:20:25You certainly don't need Tinkor slime when you're teetering.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Taylor steadying herself. But down she goes.
0:20:28 > 0:20:33That had everything, a slip, boink, thwack and a splat. Marvellous.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37Benito is still under fire. And he's down again.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Katrina attempts another sprint.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42- Can she get to the barrier? - The defenders have spotted her.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43She's doing well.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47She needs to pull up both feet on the barrier before moving on.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Taylor teeters and totters again.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52But Katrina just does enough to clear the barrier.
0:20:52 > 0:20:56- The defenders step it up now.- The water wall make waves for Katrina.
0:20:56 > 0:21:01- Tinkor piles on the pressure with the water canon.- Can the others catch up?
0:21:01 > 0:21:04Nope! Taylor's down again. She can't master the teeter.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08The teeters have been the undoing of many a fine attacker.
0:21:08 > 0:21:13- Katrina is in the lead.- Getting lots of attention from the defenders.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16- Here's Taylor again. Will it be the same result?- Maybe not.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18- She's held on this time. - Juli hasn't.
0:21:18 > 0:21:23Taylor makes it to the barrier. She's up and she's over!
0:21:23 > 0:21:25The girls are leaving the boys behind!
0:21:25 > 0:21:30Bryston! Katrina now has the defenders AND Taylor to worry about.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35Julian has another go and he's just about held on.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38- He's up onto the barrier. - Could this be a three-horse race?
0:21:38 > 0:21:40He's struggling and he's down.
0:21:40 > 0:21:44Back to the front-runners. Taylor finding it hard to get to grips.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48Katrina is ahead of her and only a few leaps away from the water wall.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- Taylor's up there and making progress.- Katrina makes a move.
0:21:51 > 0:21:56- It's turning into a game of chess! - How?- I don't know! I'm very excited!
0:21:56 > 0:22:00Katrina's at the water wall! Has Taylor got anything left to give?
0:22:00 > 0:22:05- She has! She leaps towards the platform.- But Katrina is climbing.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09- Surely it's too late for Taylor. - It is. Katrina has the crown!
0:22:09 > 0:22:13She's the new Queen and ruler of Splatalot. The winner takes it all!
0:22:13 > 0:22:18And to rub it in, Thorne vaporises Benito back into the moat.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20- Katrina is cock-a-hoop.- Skabb isn't.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23Wow! Where to begin? Katrina and Taylor really showed the boys
0:22:23 > 0:22:26- how it should be done. - But there can be only one Queen
0:22:26 > 0:22:29and Katrina has proved herself to be a worthy champion.
0:22:29 > 0:22:33I think we'll all agree, there can be only one Queen.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37What if I said to you we have two Splats of the Day?
0:22:37 > 0:22:39I'd say good! Double the fun.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44Our first splat comes from Chyrelle.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45BOING!
0:22:45 > 0:22:48That's a sound that sums up Splatalot.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Incredible. Our second comes from Lucas, who wobbled
0:22:52 > 0:22:56and splatted spectacularly. An amazing exhibition
0:22:56 > 0:22:59so they are our Splatters of the Day.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Back to Katrina. It seems like only 20 minutes ago
0:23:01 > 0:23:04we were introducing her in the Moat Challenge.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06That's because we were!
0:23:06 > 0:23:09But if you recall, she only just qualified in sixth place.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12She improved, becoming the third attacker to escape the Stockade.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16And she never looked back in the final, leading from start to finish.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20That's all for today. We'll leave you with the flag-raising ceremony.
0:23:20 > 0:23:21And the sound... SPLAT!
0:23:21 > 0:23:24..that sums up Splatalot. Bye!
0:23:25 > 0:23:27I'm the Queen of the castle!
0:23:27 > 0:23:31- You know you had that coming, don't you?- Yes.
