Team No Fear The Dare Devil

How far would you dare to go to win a prize for your family?

Would you do this?

This? Or even this?

I'm the Dare Devil and it's time to push another team to their limits.

SHE SCREAMS

A family I find They dream of a prize

On courage they draw With hope in their eyes

All they need do Is face each of my dares

There's revulsion, embarrassment And heart-pounding scares

So wishes, wants And temptation beware

For the Dare Devil waits

With a devilish dare.

EVIL CACKLING

Ah! Let's see who we've got today.

Ah, double trouble. Who's first?

Maddie and here's best friend Imogen.

How extraordinary. Who's next?

It's Maddie's mum Kerry. Intriguing.

And who have we got...

Oh! It's Jodie, Kerry's guide dog. Stay, Jodie, stay.

Nice hair, family friend Caz.

But can we top orange? Of course we can.

It's David with his blue barnet. Yes, they'll do nicely.

To Blackpool.

Good day, lovely family of Blackpools. Going somewhere?

-Who are you?

-Good question. Some call me the pinto bean.

Others refer to me as the runner bean. Some call me the baked bean.

-While some like to call me the soya bean.

-Get on with it.

Yes. You can call me the Dare Devil.

I'm here to offer you the chance to win a lovely prize.

All you must do is complete a few harmless devilish dares.

-Who are you talking to?

-Never you mind!

Now here's the deal.

There are three devilish dares and three golden doubloons to be won.

Maddie and Imogen will decide which grown-upling does which dare.

Dare Devil, Dare Devil we dare...

EVIL CACKLE

I will give them one doubloon to get them started.

Should someone be too scared to carry out the dare,

they can exchange it to buy their way out.

But someone must always take their place.

For every dare lost, Maddie and Imogen will have less time

when they return to my castle, making it harder

to open the door of destiny that leads to the final prize.

-So, Maddie and Imogen, are you in?

-Yes!

-Excellent.

What would you like your team to be known as?

Team No Fear!

-So, Team No Fun...

-It's Team No Fear.

-Whatevs.

It's time to consult the Scroll Of Secrets.

THEY GASP

This ancient scroll holds the clue to what the first dare might entail.

Maddie, read it out loud.

But remember, the devil is in the detail.

"It takes guts to find what is lost,

"so hold your nose and keep going at all cost."

-What could it mean?

-I don't know.

Something that really stinks. Or you've got to go under water.

-I'm going to go with stinks.

-I might go with water.

All right, Maddie and Imogen, it's decision time.

Which member of your team is going to complete our first challenge?

Dare Devil, Dare Devil, we dare Caz.

Caz, you are the chosen one.

-What do you think lies in store for you?

-Something absolutely grim.

Well, there's no time to lose. We must depart.

-Well, Team No Thanks...

-It's No Fear.

No Fear. I've brought you here to the beach and Blackpools.

The scene behind us offers some of my favourite fiends and monsters

and it's they who have inspired our first dare,

a dare I like to call Fish Gut Fingers.

Now listen, Caz, a few days ago I went on my annual fishing trip

but it was not a successful one.

Instead of me catching and eating the fish,

they caught and ate my socks, which can happen.

Anyhoo, to pass this dare, Caz, and win a golden doubloon for your team,

you must simply find three pairs of my socks.

Caz, can you smell that delightful, beautiful, fresh sea air?

No, of course you can't!

You can't smell it because there's five buckets

of freshly gutted fish guts right in front of you.

And it is from these containers that you must find these missing socks.

I may even have put in a red herring or two just to make it harder.

Caz, you will have 90 seconds to pass this dare.

What do you say, my fishy friend? Are you up to the challenge?

-I am up to the challenge.

-All right, then. Let's find my socks.

Go!

THE TEAM CHEERS

-Underwear.

-That's a pair of pants.

The first red sock. That goes on the line.

Right, she's off to a strong start.

Another sock. One pair down but two more to go.

Caz will have to delve even deeper into the disgusting fish guts.

What fun. Her hands smell.

Plenty of fish.

Some white garments, some blue garments.

Oh, there's another sock. Well done.

I'll stand well back.

Oh, how lovely.

That's it. The fourth sock. That's two pairs.

Caz has only two more socks left to find

but with only seconds to go, it's not looking hopeful.

Well done. That's the fifth of six socks. Will she make it in time?

Ten, nine...

Eight, seven...

She's done it. You've passed the dare.

Team No Fear, you've won a golden doubloon. Argh!

It absolutely stank.

Once you got your hands on, it felt just as grim as you can imagine.

When Caz found the last sock, I was really, really excited

and really, really happy.

They now have two doubloons.

Now it's time for our second dare.

Let us again consult the Scroll Of Secrets.

Imogen, read it loud but remember the devil is in the detail.

"With your head in the clouds, you'll feel lighter than air.

"Up so high, it'll be more than you can BEAR."

Well, it's evident they're going to be up high. That's quite obvious.

-BEAR is in capital letters.

-That means that you can't bear it at all.

Right, team captains, it's time for you to decide

which member of your team will complete dastardly dare number two.

Dare Devil, Dare Devil, we dare David.

David, you are the chosen one on this occasion.

Right, the stench of fish guts is making me hungry. Let us depart.

Ah. An amusement park in Blackpools.

As you can see, everything around you is very amusing. Ha-ha! Ha.

Anyhoo. This amusement park is the location for my next dare,

a dare I like to call Scare Bear.

-Right, Team No Fur.

-It's No Fear!

-Fine.

In a rather unfortunate turn of events,

all of my teddy bears have escaped from my bedchamber

and thanks to a dodgy sat nav, have ended up on top of this.

The tallest roller coaster in the UK.

Now, David, all you have to do to pass the dare

and win a golden doubloon for your team is to climb to the top

of the roller coaster and fetch me back my favourite teddy bear.

As you climb this 72 metre high roller coaster,

you will find clues as to which teddy bear is my favourite.

Remember, David,

you could always buy your way out of the dare with a golden doubloon.

-No, thank you.

-No? You're up for it? That's fantastic.

Then may I offer you one very simple piece of advice?

Don't look down.

Climbing this 72 metre high roller coaster

is going to be terrifying for David.

If he manages to brave his way up the 420 steps to the very top,

he must then keep his wits about him as he chooses which teddy bear

he thinks is my favourite, using only my cryptic clues to help him.

Off you go.

THEY CHEER

This isn't good at all.

Why am I doing this?

Yes, why are you doing this, David?

To get the golden doubloon, of course,

which will buy your team more time in the final challenge.

I don't like it.

I'm torn. On the one hand, I want him to fail,

on the other I terribly miss Mr Snuggles.

Keep going, David!

Come on, David. Don't you dare give in.

We're nearing the 100 foot mark

where David may just encounter our first clue.

"I may be bold but my head gets so cold."

Come on, David!

I'm thinking a knight's helmet.

It's metal so he gets cold.

I'm going to guess it's a knight so far.

Come on, David. One down and two to go.

Yes, two more to go, if David is brave enough to continue the climb.

Don't look down!

-WHIMPERS:

-I shouldn't look down.

I just don't like this at all.

He's nearing the 150 foot point.

That's where he's going to find the second clue.

Here's the clue. "To tell me apart, I always dress smart."

Huh. Well, now I don't know.

Come on, David!

David is now 60 metres from the ground

and he has 15 metres left to climb.

It's cold, it's windy, and it's a long way down.

And I've got the third clue.

"I need these on my feet to lock in the heat."

I don't know. Slippers keep you warm, I guess. It could be slippers.

But it's a really weird-looking teddy bear then.

A helmet of some sort, a suit and some slippers.

These dizzy heights are making my clues even more confusing.

But as he nears the top, he'll have to work it out soon.

He's there, he's there, he's nearly got the bear.

He's got a hat on, I know that much.

He's got some sort of a bow or suit or something.

You don't have anything.

You've got a cute little bow.

You've got a little suit. And you've got a little suit.

You've got socks.

You haven't got little socks. So I think it's you.

THEY CHEER

Get in there, you. Keep you nice and safe.

David has a bear but is it the right one?

THEY WHOOP

Welcome back, David.

Think you figured out the clues to help you choose the right bear?

-I think so, yes.

-Let's see.

I keep a framed photograph of Mr Snuggles here.

Imogen, do the honours, will you?

We'll compare the picture to the reality.

Let's see.

THEY CHEER

Well done, David.

You brought back my beloved Mr Snuggles

and that means you've won your team another golden doubloon.

THEY WHOOP

I hate it when people win.

When we opened the picture and I saw so it was Mr Snuggles

I was so relieved because I thought it was all worth it.

I was really surprised that the Dare Devil's teddy looked normal,

like the one I would have, because I thought it would look more like him.

Argh, they've done it again.

That means they have three doubloons.

-Right, Team No Friends.

-No Fear!

-No Fear.

Do you feel ready and willing to take on our next dastardly dare?

Yes!

But what could it be? Let us again consult the Scroll Of Secrets.

Maddie, read it out loud but remember,

the devil is in the detail.

"Swinging high may be a thrill but stay alert!

"You must not spill..."

What would that mean? Like holding coffee and you've got a line.

Or water.

That's going to be tricky.

All right, Maddie and Imogen, it is now time for you to choose

which of your hapless team-mates will complete the next dare.

Dare Devil, Dare Devil, we dare Mum.

Mum! It is your turn after all.

-How do you feel?

-Bring it on.

-All right.

It's time for us to depart for the next devilish dare.

Do you know? The pier we're standing on used to be a bridge

-that stretched all the way to America.

-Is that true?

Almost certainly not

but it is this pier that has inspired our next dare,

a dare I like to call Pier Pressure.

Right, The Mum, I'm going to entrust you

with a jug of my favourite beverage, pond water.

Do you think you can look after it for me?

-I certainly won't be drinking it.

-Jolly good.

Now, do you think you can keep it all in the jug

when you're riding on a massive swing?

That's right, The Mum, I'm going to send you sailing through the air.

To pass this dare and win the golden doubloon,

you must keep enough liquid in the jug to fill my In The Gob Goblet.

-Feeling confident?

-Yeah.

So am I, confident in your certain defeat, that is. Ha-ha!

The Mum will be raised 38 metres into the air.

She will then swing out over the sea, hitting speeds of 80mph.

The Mum will have to hold on to her stomach,

her nerves and most importantly, my drink.

Now, remember, The Mum, you can still play the golden doubloon

and get yourself out of trouble. What do you say?

-Do I look like a wussy?

-Not from here.

All right, let's play.

-See you later, folks.

-Come on, Mum! Woo!

All on her own, The Mum is slowly hoisted 38 metres up into the air.

-Don't spill my pond water.

-Eat my smoke.

Don't give him the satisfaction.

Now, I want her to lose the dare,

but I also want my delicious pond water.

This is like Mr Snuggles all over again.

If The Mum cannot save enough liquid to fill my goblet,

she will not win the golden doubloon for her team

and the chance of them winning the prize gets a whole lot smaller.

That's amazing.

She's certainly going to lose some on the initial drop.

The question is how much?

Suspended up high, it's already terrifying.

But the worst is yet to come.

SCREAMING

There certainly was a degree of spillage, wasn't there?

THEY CHEER

It's difficult to make out how much liquid she's managed to save.

Not a great deal.

Dare Devil, this doubloon is mine!

We'll see about that, flying woman.

I absolutely aced.

THEY CHEER

That was amazing.

Woo!

-Here she comes. How was your flight?

-It was amazing.

Amazing for you but let's see how much of my delicious pond water

you managed to save. I'm pouring it into my goblet.

There are three marks.

It's got to reach the top one for you to pass the dare.

Oh, dear. Only the bottom mark has been reached. You failed the dare.

It was extremely hard to keep the water in the container.

I literally got a face full of it.

Seeing my mum on the ride was really, really scary

but really fun at the same time.

That's it for the grown-ups. Let's see how they've done.

Team No Fear have won two of their three dares.

Next it will be all down to Maddie and Imogen

as they face my Chambers Of Bravery.

-Right, Team No Fear.

-It's No...

-Oh. He actually got it right.

-Yes, I did.

It's time to go back to mine and face the final, final, final,

final dare!

Come on. We must depart.

Well, come in, Team No Fear.

Welcome to my dungeon, where I assure you there is plenty to fear.

Maddie and Imogen, I'm glad to see you're dressed for the occasion

for it is you who will face our final challenge

in a dare I like to call Chambers Of Bravery 2.0.

There is only one way out of my dungeon,

through the Door Of Destiny, beyond which lies the prize.

But the door is locked and will only open

when it hears the correct devilish word.

-Door Of Destiny...

-The word you seek is...

Maddie and Imogen must take on my three Chambers Of Bravery

to find the clues that will help reveal the word to open the door.

So, girls, your team leadership has seen you bring in

three golden doubloons. Give them here.

Each of these little beauties will buy you 15 seconds

on top of the one minute that I begrudgingly put on the clock,

so your total time to complete the three chambers is...

Now, if you don't want to do a chamber

or it all gets a little bit too much,

you can get out of it by shouting stop the dare.

One of your team-mates will take your place

although you will lose ten precious seconds from the clock.

-Understand?

-Yes.

-Then let's meet our first chamber, The Hands Of Horror.

The first scroll is hidden within my chamber full of fearsome creatures.

There's no time to waste so you must remain brave.

-Now, which of you is going to undertake this awful challenge?

-Me.

Well, let's see what's inside The Hands Of Horror.

It's cockroaches, filthy cockroaches.

You have 1 minute 45 seconds to complete all these chambers.

Your time starts in three, two, one.

-Start the clock.

-Go Maddie.

That's it.

Confident movements. Do try not to get eaten by the cockroaches.

-Don't listen to him. You won't get eaten.

-That's it.

-Time is ticking away.

-Maddie, that piece of wood.

They can't hurt you, Madison.

-Come on, do it.

-Let's see.

Well, what's that red thing poking up?

Retrieve it from the chamber and stop the clock!

You've succeeded.

You have 1 minute and 11 seconds remaining for our next two chambers.

I wonder if it'll be enough.

Let us make haste to our next terrifying chamber,

The Tunnel Of Terror.

There are three boxes of grossness to open.

Unlock the first box to gain the key to the second

and then work your way to that precious scroll.

Just remember to keep your mouth shut.

So, tell me this, Maddie and Imogen,

-which of you will take on this disgusting challenge?

-Me.

-So, Imogen, looking forward to getting messy?

-No, not really.

No, not really. Here's the key to the first box.

Your time starts in three, two, one.

Off you go.

THE TEAM CHEERS

Imogen must find the keys in each box that will open the next one.

Oh, there it goes. Don't you look lovely? That's it. Find the key.

In the third box is the scroll.

-Close your mouth.

-Time's moving on.

Disgusting, isn't it?

Imogen's got the first key but there are two boxes left

and time is slipping away.

That's it. Well done. More gloop on you and another key to find.

-Come on. Quick. Quick.

-On you go.

She should be nice and sticky now

waiting for these flakes to stick onto her.

-She's so gratifyingly disgusting.

-The scroll, Immie, the scroll.

-Quick, quick.

-Hand me the scroll.

Hand me the scroll and stop the clock!

Imogen completed The Tunnel Of Terror in 50 seconds

so only 21 seconds remain for my final chamber,

The Dome Of Doom.

The final scroll is locked in a chest in The Dome Of Doom.

To find the key, you must match the feathers to the picture

but it's not so easy when they're guarded by terrifying beasts.

Well, Maddie and Imogen, you faced down the fearsome cockroaches

but what do you think could be lurking inside The Dome Of Doom?

-Rats?

-Well, let's see if you're right.

Absolutely not. It's the fearsome geckos.

Which of you fancies going face-to-face

with my reptilian friends?

-Me.

-All right.

Your time will start as soon as your head enters the dome.

Get into position.

You have 21 seconds to complete the chamber. Off you go.

Start the clock.

There we go. Look at the picture.

-Black, two red, one green.

-Black, two red, one green. That's it.

Investigate the feathers. Well done.

Imogen, how about one of the spotty ones? That one.

Ten seconds left.

Imogen is struggling to find the key and time is slipping away.

Five, four, three,

two, one.

Out of time. Out you come, Imogen.

Well, you didn't manage to secure this third scroll

but you have got two scrolls.

That might give you a fighting chance

as we head over to the Door Of Destiny.

All right, here we are. It's time to read out our clues.

Maddie, do the honours with scroll number one.

"They live in the sea."

They live in the sea.

-What do you think that could be?

-Fish.

-A fish?

Let's move on to the second scroll

and see if that enriches our understanding.

"They can grow and lose thousands of teeth."

They can grow and lose thousands of teeth.

You think you know what it is?

Then it's time to approach the Door Of Destiny and speak your password.

Come on.

-Door Of Destiny.

-The word you seek is...

shark.

DOOR RATTLES

RATTLING STOPS

THEY CHEER

You were right. Team No Fear, you have succeeded.

Come and join your team captains.

Well, you've won your prize. Off you go.

Well, I don't know about you, but I'm pooped. What's that?

Yes, good idea. Why don't the three of us go out for a jalfrezi?

Not you. You can have a korma after last time. Ugh.

Meanwhile, fearless children and adults beware

for the Dare Devil waits with a devilish dare.
