Looking forward to the custard experiment today.

0:00:020:00:04

Oh, that reminds me, what day do eggs hate the most?

0:00:040:00:06

What day do eggs hate...? I think it would probably be, like, Mondays.

0:00:060:00:09

Cause nobody wants to go back to work.

0:00:090:00:11

But it depends on the egg situation. It could be Tuesday.

0:00:110:00:13

And then there's late-night shopping on Thursday.

0:00:130:00:15

-No.

-You know, I know some chickens. I'm going to go ask them.

-No, don't.

0:00:150:00:18

They know all about eggs. They make them every day.

0:00:180:00:21

Let's crack on with the show.

0:00:210:00:23

Will GP find himself crying over spilt...water?

0:00:280:00:32

Who will tug their taut tablecloth first?

0:00:330:00:36

And will there be a chance to bounce back and take the lead?

0:00:360:00:40

Get those magnificent minds at the ready.

0:00:400:00:44

It's time for ULTIMATE BRAIN.

0:00:440:00:47

APPLAUSE

0:00:470:00:54

Hi there. I was chatting to me old mucker Jamie Oliver the other day.

0:00:540:00:58

And I said, "What is the recipe for the perfect TV programme?"

0:00:580:01:01

And he said, "Well, what you've got to do, mate,

0:01:010:01:03

"take some scintillating science, yeah? Just chuck it in there.

0:01:030:01:06

"Bish, bash, bosh, yeah?

0:01:060:01:07

"Get some incredible guests, chuck them in, mix it all about.

0:01:070:01:10

"What have you got?" I'll tell you what you've got -

0:01:100:01:12

ULTIMATE BRAIN!

0:01:120:01:14

I wonder if any of our guests today will know anything about food.

0:01:140:01:17

Curiouser and curiouser.

0:01:170:01:19

Let's meet the teams. First up, it's our team in green from Kent.

0:01:210:01:24

It's Daniel, Sahil and Ellie.

0:01:240:01:27

From Suffolk, as bright as custard, it's Freddie, Mohammed and Leonardo.

0:01:290:01:34

And our celebrity team in blueberry blue,

0:01:350:01:37

from CBBC's Matilda And The Ramsay Bunch, it's Tilly, Holly and Jack.

0:01:370:01:44

The greatest science minds on the earth.

0:01:440:01:48

They came from four corners of the globe...

0:01:480:01:51

Corners of the globe?

0:01:510:01:52

It's round. What are you talking about? Let's meet the teams.

0:01:520:01:55

Let's start with the Blues. How are you doing, Blues?

0:01:550:01:57

-Really good, thank you.

-Good to see you.

0:01:570:01:59

Yes, it is my good friends Jilly, Billy and... No, hang on, Jolly,

0:01:590:02:03

Tally...

0:02:030:02:05

Oh, it's the Ramsays!

0:02:050:02:08

If I was to ask you and someone else, like, I don't know, your dad,

0:02:080:02:12

to cook me up the perfect dinner,

0:02:120:02:14

which for me is banana pancakes, who would do the best?

0:02:140:02:18

-100%.

-Tilly.

0:02:180:02:19

A bit of interfamily competition there. I like that.

0:02:190:02:22

What's your team name?

0:02:220:02:24

-ALL:

-Team Ramsay Bunch!

0:02:240:02:26

Now, let's meet the Greens.

0:02:260:02:28

-How are you, Greens?

-I think we're good.

-Good, good, good.

0:02:280:02:31

Now, Dr Daniel, you got any hobbies?

0:02:310:02:34

I sometimes do the washing-up.

0:02:340:02:37

-It is actually very fun.

-Oh, is it?

0:02:370:02:40

What is it particularly you like about washing-up?

0:02:400:02:42

You get the bubbles and you get the frying pans, and then you

0:02:420:02:45

stick them in, and they're very naughty because

0:02:450:02:47

they never fit in the bowl.

0:02:470:02:49

Then when you're done you get your mum to do the rest of it.

0:02:490:02:51

He's got it all worked out.

0:02:510:02:53

Hey, you Ramsays, he could come and work for you, couldn't he?

0:02:530:02:55

-In your kitchen.

-Please do.

-Get them all done.

0:02:550:02:57

You wouldn't even have to pay him. Marvellous. It's not rocket science.

0:02:570:03:00

Mind you, you'd know about rocket science, wouldn't you?

0:03:000:03:03

-Yeah, because my dad is one.

-His dad is a rocket scientist.

0:03:030:03:05

Isn't that marvellous? Perhaps he's going to do quite well.

0:03:050:03:08

What's your team name?

0:03:080:03:09

-ALL:

-Supersonic High Velocities!

0:03:090:03:13

-Yellows, where are you from? ALL:

-Suffolk.

0:03:130:03:15

Nice to meet you, Yellows.

0:03:150:03:17

Dr Freddie, what would you like to be when you get out of school?

0:03:170:03:20

Barber.

0:03:200:03:21

-Why particularly a barber?

-I just like hair.

0:03:210:03:23

-You've got good hair yourself. Do you do your own?

-Yes.

0:03:230:03:26

What would you do if you were cutting my hair?

0:03:260:03:28

Bit of a trim on the back, on the sides, little fringe,

0:03:280:03:30

-kind of like mine.

-A little fringe, nice.

0:03:300:03:32

Perhaps a little curl or something, little wave. I look forward to that.

0:03:320:03:35

Marvellous. What's your team name?

0:03:350:03:37

-ALL:

-Einstein Minds!

0:03:370:03:40

So, those are the teams.

0:03:400:03:42

And this is the show where creativity is everything.

0:03:420:03:45

And above all, genius brains!

0:03:450:03:50

So let's begin with the warm-up.

0:03:500:03:53

HE SINGS A SCALE

0:03:530:03:56

Not that kind of warm-up, GP. Bring me my questions.

0:03:560:04:02

Are you ready?

0:04:020:04:04

-ALL:

-Yes!

0:04:040:04:06

Hands on brains. Here we go.

0:04:060:04:08

Take 100, divide it by 2, then minus 10 and add...

0:04:080:04:15

Ramsay Bunch!

0:04:150:04:16

Ramsays!

0:04:180:04:19

-Well, what is it?

-40?

-Well, let's hear the rest of the question.

0:04:190:04:22

And add 6.

0:04:220:04:24

Supersonic High Velocities!

0:04:240:04:26

46.

0:04:260:04:27

Yes, that's what happens when you buzz too early, you Ramsays.

0:04:270:04:31

What word am I spelling backwards?

0:04:310:04:32

Supersonic High Velocities!

0:04:400:04:41

Equation?

0:04:410:04:43

Equation is right. Well done.

0:04:430:04:45

What is this sound?

0:04:450:04:47

WHOOSHING

0:04:470:04:50

Supersonic High Velocities!

0:04:500:04:52

-A vacuum cleaner.

-No. Ramsay Bunch.

0:04:520:04:55

-A hairdryer?

-Is the right answer.

0:04:550:04:57

How many letters are there in the word lightning?

0:04:570:05:00

Ramsay Bunch.

0:05:010:05:03

-Eight.

-No, it's not right!

-Oh.

0:05:030:05:05

Supersonic High Velocities!

0:05:050:05:07

-Nine.

-Is right!

0:05:070:05:09

Now, put yourselves in alphabetical order

0:05:090:05:13

according to your name from my left to my right.

0:05:130:05:16

-I'm at the end.

-Starting here.

-Daniel!

0:05:170:05:21

Supersonic High Velocities.

0:05:210:05:22

-Are you done?

-Yes.

-Let's see.

0:05:220:05:25

Yes, you've got it! Well done, you Greens.

0:05:250:05:28

You get the points for that question.

0:05:280:05:30

And indeed, most of the points in this round.

0:05:300:05:32

APPLAUSE

0:05:320:05:33

Marvellous. Well, there we go, all nice and warmed up and we're ready.

0:05:330:05:36

Let's do it!

0:05:360:05:38

DRAMATIC MUSIC

0:05:380:05:40

Ha, ha, ha, ha!

0:05:440:05:46

EASTERN EUROPEAN ACCENT: Welcome to my laboratory.

0:05:460:05:48

DR BRAIN LAUGHS

0:05:480:05:50

So, I have in front of me a bottle and a jar.

0:05:500:05:55

-What do you think is in them?

-Vinegar?

-Vinegar?

0:05:550:05:57

It looks a bit vinegary, doesn't it?

0:05:570:05:59

Well, I can tell you, in the bottle...

0:05:590:06:01

along with a few drops of washing-up liquid,

0:06:010:06:03

is a thing called hydrogen peroxide.

0:06:030:06:04

Who's heard of that? Why have you heard of it, Dr Tilly?

0:06:040:06:07

Isn't it something you dye your hair with?

0:06:070:06:09

You can, yes, it's used in bleach, when people bleach their hair.

0:06:090:06:12

You don't need it, do you? You're about as blonde as you can get.

0:06:120:06:14

DR BRAIN LAUGHS This is much, much stronger.

0:06:140:06:17

You wouldn't want to put that on your head, I'll tell you that.

0:06:170:06:19

In the jar is some stuff called peroxidase,

0:06:190:06:23

which, actually, you've all got inside you,

0:06:230:06:27

because human bodies make it to protect us from chemicals.

0:06:270:06:30

And do you know what else it's in? You find it in...

0:06:300:06:33

your bogeys!

0:06:330:06:35

-ALL:

-Eurgh!

0:06:350:06:36

So, what will happen when I put the contents of the jar into the bottle?

0:06:360:06:42

And here are your options...

0:06:420:06:43

A, the container will melt.

0:06:430:06:46

HE MAKES A HISSING SOUND

0:06:460:06:48

B, it will combine and create a sort of fountain.

0:06:480:06:51

C, the combined liquid... will start to glow,

0:06:510:06:55

or D, something else.

0:06:550:06:58

Something perhaps you have or haven't thought of.

0:06:580:07:02

DRUMROLL Have a little think about it,

0:07:020:07:04

your thinking time starts...now!

0:07:040:07:05

START BUZZER

0:07:050:07:07

THEY CONFER

0:07:070:07:08

I think it's going to start to glow, I think it's going to start to glow.

0:07:080:07:11

-D, C...

-D, C.

0:07:110:07:13

Oh, what's going to happen?

0:07:130:07:15

THEY CONFER

0:07:160:07:18

Do you have your answer?

0:07:200:07:21

-The fountain or the...

-But the fountain...

0:07:230:07:25

END ALARM OK! That's time up, that's time up!

0:07:250:07:29

Let's see your answers...now!

0:07:290:07:33

C, B, B, C.

0:07:330:07:35

You're watching CBBC!

0:07:350:07:37

Greens, you've gone for C.

0:07:370:07:38

You think that it's going to glow? Why do you think that?

0:07:380:07:40

I watched this light up one day,

0:07:400:07:43

with that exact liquid, so I think...

0:07:430:07:46

Ah, I see, OK.

0:07:460:07:48

So it's going to have some sort of chemical reaction...

0:07:480:07:51

Chemical reaction, which will make it all glow, I see.

0:07:510:07:54

Now then, you've both gone for B. Let's find out, Yellows.

0:07:540:07:57

We did B, because we think that when the two liquids mix,

0:07:570:08:01

they're going to react and go like a fountain.

0:08:010:08:03

So, it's another chemical reaction,

0:08:030:08:05

but you think it's going to be a different reaction.

0:08:050:08:07

Now then, you Ramsays, what answer have you cooked up?

0:08:070:08:10

We went for B, cos I kind of want it to become

0:08:100:08:12

a fountain, cos I like fountains.

0:08:120:08:14

-Your answer just comes out of desire.

-Yes.

0:08:140:08:16

You want it to be that, so you've picked it.

0:08:160:08:19

-Exactly.

-I like that, that's good and positive.

0:08:190:08:21

Well, shall we find out?

0:08:210:08:23

I ask you all to stand back, stand back, everybody, just in case

0:08:230:08:26

it shatters into a billion pieces and explodes and sets on fire,

0:08:260:08:29

blows up the universe, all that kind of stuff we scientists love to do.

0:08:290:08:32

Here we go, are you ready? One, two, three.

0:08:320:08:36

All right. All in.

0:08:360:08:37

MUSIC

0:08:370:08:39

Hydrogen peroxide is made up of ordinary water molecules,

0:08:410:08:45

with extra oxygen forced within it, making it unstable.

0:08:450:08:48

Animals and plants produce peroxidase

0:08:480:08:51

to break down chemicals like peroxide and protect themselves.

0:08:510:08:54

When we put peroxidase into the jar,

0:08:540:08:56

it breaks down the hydrogen peroxide really quickly.

0:08:560:08:59

Lots of oxygen is released, and when all that gas forms bubbles

0:08:590:09:02

in the washing-up liquid, it froths up into this amazing foam.

0:09:020:09:05

That's what you call an Ultimate Brain amazing moment!

0:09:050:09:09

DR BRAIN LAUGHS

0:09:090:09:10

So, it was...B!

0:09:100:09:13

CHEERING

0:09:130:09:14

That means it's ten points for the Yellows and the Blues. Well done!

0:09:140:09:19

Let's see what happens in the next round!

0:09:190:09:21

I'll tell you this story of what happened, right?

0:09:270:09:29

I phoned up the Ramsay household, I spoke to my old mate Gordon,

0:09:290:09:34

Gordon Bleu, as I call him,

0:09:340:09:36

and I said, "I've got an invitation for you,

0:09:360:09:38

"I'd like the best chef in your house to come and appear

0:09:380:09:40

"on my brilliant show, Ultimate Brain, and he said,

0:09:400:09:42

"Yes, brilliant, I'd love to, I'll be there, packing my bags now,"

0:09:420:09:45

and I said, "No, wait, hold your horses, Gordon," I said,

0:09:450:09:48

"you great big angry muffin.

0:09:480:09:49

"It's not you I want, I want your kids, they're much better than you."

0:09:490:09:53

He said, "I'm so angry, I don't know what to do!" I heard all this noise.

0:09:530:09:56

He smashed the phone, flew into a flying rage. Does he do that a lot?

0:09:560:10:00

-All the time.

-Yes, I thought he might.

0:10:000:10:01

Now he's so excited about having the brilliant, wonderful,

0:10:010:10:04

marvellous Ramsays on the show that I decided to hold

0:10:040:10:06

a party at the Tate Modern's newest art installation...

0:10:060:10:10

Frame By Frame By Frame,

0:10:100:10:12

but I made too much drink! And now it's time to clear up

0:10:120:10:15

and I need my teams to get the drinks from frame to frame,

0:10:150:10:19

through the frames, and into the containers.

0:10:190:10:22

I gave them £50 and two days each to come up with their designs.

0:10:220:10:26

Teams must help our waiter, GP, transfer as many cups as possible,

0:10:260:10:31

as he travels through the course of frames and deposits liquid

0:10:310:10:34

into the container at the end.

0:10:340:10:36

Their designs must consider the best way for GP to get himself and

0:10:360:10:39

the cups to the other side of the course, spilling as little of

0:10:390:10:42

his sticky cargo as possible.

0:10:420:10:43

The team that helps GP get the most pop into the container

0:10:430:10:46

will win themselves ten points!

0:10:460:10:48

Here he is, my good friend,

0:10:480:10:50

the Guinea Pig!

0:10:500:10:52

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:10:520:10:54

MUSIC

0:10:540:10:55

MUSIC DISTORTS AND STOPS

0:10:550:10:56

-Guinea pig?

-He's up... Whoa!

0:10:560:10:58

What are you doing over there?

0:10:580:11:00

Now that I'm being sent out to work,

0:11:000:11:02

I thought I'd work on my people skills.

0:11:020:11:03

-Look, here are the people and these are my skills!

-How do you think

0:11:030:11:06

-he's doing, everybody?

-Bad!

0:11:060:11:08

Bad, hey? Let's put him to work.

0:11:080:11:11

Let's see the first plan.

0:11:110:11:13

I think we should make a sitcom called...

0:11:130:11:15

# The Ramsay Bunch, The Ramsay Bunch, ooh-hoo... #

0:11:150:11:18

But for now, let's see what your plan is.

0:11:180:11:21

-What's it called?

-The Bucket Hat 4,000.

0:11:210:11:24

Bucket Hat 4,000, available now from all stores.

0:11:240:11:28

So, what's the theory behind the plan, Dr Holly?

0:11:280:11:31

Well, Guinea Pig's going to hold that

0:11:310:11:32

and I'm going to put cups on his head too,

0:11:320:11:34

but don't tip your head, otherwise they will fall.

0:11:340:11:37

The Ramsay Bunch's Bucket Hat 4,000

0:11:370:11:40

uses state-of-the-art cup-holding technology on both GP's head

0:11:400:11:43

and body with a fashionable cup-holding hat

0:11:430:11:45

and a tray with stabilising straps. With easy loading and a slim design,

0:11:450:11:49

they're hoping they're onto a winner,

0:11:490:11:50

but is GP level-headed enough to do a good job?

0:11:500:11:53

I thought we were going to play Connect Four.

0:11:530:11:55

DR BRAIN LAUGHS Maybe later.

0:11:550:11:57

If my good old friend from Junior MasterChef, John Torode, was here,

0:11:570:12:01

he's say, "I like it, I like it a lot."

0:12:010:12:03

But he's not!

0:12:030:12:04

So let's get on with it. Your 30 seconds loading time starts...now.

0:12:040:12:08

START BUZZER

0:12:080:12:10

-Jack, you do the head with Holly.

-OK.

-I'll help you.

-Oh!

0:12:100:12:13

-Ooh!

-Uh-oh. Uh-oh.

0:12:160:12:18

Come on, guys.

0:12:180:12:19

Keep that head steady, GP.

0:12:190:12:21

-Jack, keep doing the head.

-OK, OK.

0:12:210:12:23

Come on, Hols, you're doing well.

0:12:230:12:25

Just a few more left.

0:12:260:12:28

-Can we put it on there?

-Ten seconds.

-Ten seconds.

0:12:290:12:32

Just a couple more, let's go, guys. So close.

0:12:320:12:36

-Tilly, last one, last one, last one.

-Three, two, one.

And look at him go.

0:12:390:12:42

-MUSIC: Mission: Impossible Theme

-Go on, GP!

0:12:420:12:44

-Nice.

-45 seconds for GP to get there.

0:12:440:12:47

-Turn sideways.

-Sideways, turn sideways. Sideways.

0:12:470:12:50

-There we go.

-Steady, steady. You're doing well.

0:12:500:12:53

-Watch your head.

-Mind your head!

-THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER

0:12:530:12:56

Contorting himself to get through.

0:12:570:13:00

Oh, little bit of splash-age there.

0:13:000:13:02

-Stand up, stand up, stand up!

-OK, ready?

-Let's go.

-Very good.

0:13:020:13:04

Now, you've got to get as much as you can in there.

0:13:040:13:06

-Holly, you missed the bucket!

-20 seconds to go!

0:13:060:13:09

-That's it.

-Come on!

0:13:090:13:11

Tilly, you do that end.

0:13:110:13:13

THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER

0:13:130:13:15

There's a couple in there.

0:13:150:13:17

Time!

0:13:170:13:18

Five...

0:13:180:13:20

Time's nearly up!

0:13:200:13:21

END BUZZER

0:13:210:13:23

There we go, time's up!

0:13:230:13:25

-Put the cups down, put your cups down.

-Give me a high five.

0:13:250:13:29

Well, you think you've done well?

0:13:290:13:31

-Yes.

-Happy with your plan?

0:13:310:13:33

-Very happy.

-It's the Yellows!

0:13:330:13:35

Now, Dr Leonardo, another great inventor,

0:13:350:13:39

another great Leonardo was Leonardo da Vinci.

0:13:390:13:42

-Do you think you could compete with him with this invention?

-Yes.

0:13:420:13:45

-What is it?

-I'm going to take the tray out

0:13:450:13:47

so them two will load it in

0:13:470:13:49

and hopefully Guinea Pig will make it through.

0:13:490:13:51

-It's multilayered, isn't it? Does it have a name?

-H2O Box.

0:13:510:13:54

Einstein Minds have invented a multi-tray system,

0:13:540:13:57

multiplying the surface area available for carrying cups.

0:13:570:14:00

Their invention is strapped to GP for stability,

0:14:000:14:03

but will their design be strong enough to carry its maximum load?

0:14:030:14:06

-I think we should see the plan in action, don't you?

-Yes.

-Yes.

0:14:060:14:09

Let's do it, then.

0:14:090:14:10

OK, you've got 30 seconds to load him up and 45 seconds to get

0:14:100:14:13

to the other side and get all your water into the receptacle.

0:14:130:14:16

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-OK, your loading time starts...now!

Oh, yes. Good action, there. Good action.

0:14:260:14:29

-Slow work, isn't it?

-Oh, man.

0:14:290:14:31

-That's it.

-It's really heavy.

0:14:310:14:33

You might want to know...

0:14:330:14:34

might want to go a little bit quicker.

0:14:340:14:37

That's one done. What about the others? Come on, get a move on!

0:14:380:14:41

Seconds left to load up. You haven't got many in it.

0:14:410:14:44

Oh...

0:14:440:14:45

Hard to put it in.

0:14:450:14:47

No.

0:14:470:14:49

END BUZZER

0:14:490:14:50

Oh, that's time, got to get going, Guinea Pig!

0:14:500:14:53

-Oh, man.

-Look at him go.

-Come on, Guinea Pig.

0:14:530:14:56

-Didn't get as many as you would have liked, did you?

-Duck.

0:14:560:14:59

Watch your head, watch your head, ooh!

0:14:590:15:02

Come on. Come on.

0:15:020:15:04

-Come on, Guinea Pig.

-Come on.

0:15:040:15:05

Come on. Cheer them on, everyone. Cheer them on.

That's it. How many can they get in?

0:15:090:15:12

How many are they going to have left?

0:15:120:15:14

20 seconds left now, to get them all in.

0:15:140:15:18

They're doing quite well.

0:15:180:15:20

Carefully, that's nice.

0:15:200:15:22

Good work. 15 seconds to go.

0:15:220:15:25

-Come on...

-Come on, teams, cheer 'em on, cheer 'em on!

-Come on!

We're going to get there!

0:15:320:15:34

END BUZZER

0:15:340:15:35

That's it, put the cups there, that's it, time's up.

0:15:350:15:39

Well, how did you think that went, Yellows?

0:15:390:15:42

-Didn't quite get as many in as you would've liked, did you?

-No...

0:15:420:15:45

But you never know, you did pretty well.

0:15:450:15:47

Let's find out what the next plan is.

0:15:470:15:49

I think Guinea Pig has been taking that miracle hand-growing

0:15:490:15:52

ointment again, or this is the Green plan. Which is it?

0:15:520:15:56

-It is the Green plan.

-I thought it might be.

0:15:560:15:59

-What's it called?

-The Cyborg-Wired Hand.

0:15:590:16:02

DR BRAIN LAUGHS

0:16:020:16:03

That's a fantastic name, like something out of Doctor Who.

0:16:030:16:06

It's brilliant. What's the plan behind it?

0:16:060:16:08

Each finger will have four cup holders

0:16:080:16:12

-and we'll put each cup in one cup holder...

-Yes.

0:16:120:16:17

-..and in this bucket we have umbrellas...

-Oh!

0:16:170:16:20

..and we'll put these umbrellas on

0:16:200:16:22

to make them look pretty and help the water stay in,

0:16:220:16:25

so if it bounces up it will get soaked up and start to drip down.

0:16:250:16:30

Team Supersonic High Velocities are giving GP a hand with his

0:16:300:16:33

cup carrying by artificially increasing the size of his hands,

0:16:330:16:36

thus increasing the amount he can hold.

0:16:360:16:38

They've created wire holders on the end of each finger

0:16:380:16:41

and will use mini umbrellas to contain the liquid

0:16:410:16:43

in the cups and prevent spillages.

0:16:430:16:45

A career as a goalie may be calling,

0:16:450:16:47

but will those giant hands fit through the narrow frames?

0:16:470:16:49

Dr Ellie, is there anything you predict might go wrong with this?

0:16:490:16:53

Um, he drops them?

0:16:530:16:54

-Anything else?

-Um... The small frame looks...thin?

0:16:540:16:57

-Not sure you can get...

-You think the hands might be too big?

0:16:570:17:00

-He can put his hands on top of each other.

-Are you confident, though?

0:17:000:17:03

-Yes.

-Yes.

-Let's see it in action.

0:17:030:17:06

OK, 30 seconds loading-up time, 45 seconds to execute your plan.

0:17:060:17:09

Your loading time starts...now!

START BUZZER

They're going good, they're going good. Show, Greens!

0:17:160:17:19

Those umbrellas are very pretty, but will they prove useful?

0:17:190:17:23

-Come on, Greens, you're doing good.

-Come on, Greens.

0:17:270:17:29

Quicker, quicker, come on! Come on, you haven't got much time.

0:17:290:17:33

-Only ten seconds left.

-Going good, Greens.

0:17:330:17:35

-Keep loading, keep loading. That's it.

-Come on, Greens.

0:17:350:17:38

Concentrate a lot more on the cups, I would.

Oh, there goes one!

0:17:540:17:57

THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER

0:17:570:17:59

-Yes.

-Do one hand at a time.

-Working his way through.

0:18:020:18:04

-Guinea Pig's using his brain.

-Yes, yes!

0:18:040:18:07

20 seconds to get them in. Go, go, go, go! That's it. You can't stop.

0:18:070:18:12

-You can't hang about. Get in.

-Ah!

-That's it.

-Oh, no.

0:18:120:18:16

-OK...

-Go in.

0:18:160:18:17

Quickly, quickly, quickly, ten seconds to go. Hurry, hurry, hurry!

0:18:170:18:21

-Hurry, hurry, hurry!

-Hurry, hurry, hurry!

0:18:210:18:23

You're doing very well. That's it. Nearly there.

END BUZZER

0:18:260:18:27

Oh, that's time, that's time!

0:18:270:18:29

-How do you think that went?

-OK.

-Very well.

0:18:290:18:32

-Anything you think you could've done better?

-Er...

-Not spilled one.

0:18:320:18:35

Well, that was a pretty good round, wasn't it? Did you enjoy that?

0:18:370:18:40

-ALL:

-Yes!

-Really good fun.

0:18:400:18:42

You all did very, very well, but I can reveal that the team

0:18:420:18:46

that got the most liquid into the container was...

0:18:460:18:49

HE VOICES A DRUMROLL

0:18:490:18:51

..the Blues! CHEERING

0:18:510:18:53

That's ten points for you,

0:18:530:18:55

but because the Yellows and the Greens

0:18:550:18:57

made really, really creative inventions,

0:18:570:18:59

I'm giving them two points each, so well done to you as well.

0:18:590:19:03

-CHEERING

-Yeah!

-Yes!

0:19:030:19:04

So, points all round. Isn't that lovely?

0:19:040:19:07

You're going to have to be on your marks now,

0:19:070:19:08

cos it's time for the split-second round.

0:19:080:19:11

P-yow!

0:19:110:19:12

So, GP and I have spent ages making this wonderful,

0:19:170:19:21

wonderful meal and setting up the table, haven't we, GP?

0:19:210:19:24

Yes, I've spent the last two days working on it.

0:19:240:19:28

Two days, that's right.

0:19:280:19:29

We phoned up Gordon and said, "What do your kids like?"

0:19:290:19:32

He said, "Oh, baked beans. Love a bit of fudge,

0:19:320:19:35

"but whatever you do, don't put it on a white tablecloth."

0:19:350:19:38

Oh, no! What we're going to have to do, teams,

0:19:380:19:41

is you're going to have to whip those tablecloths off, shoo!

0:19:410:19:44

Without moving any of the food.

0:19:440:19:46

DR BRAIN LAUGHS

0:19:460:19:47

Pretty ingenious, hey? Do you think they can do it, GP?

0:19:470:19:50

I doubt it very much.

0:19:500:19:52

I'm pretty confident about this one and I don't think it's going

0:19:520:19:55

to be in the least bit messy.

0:19:550:19:57

BOING

0:19:570:19:58

DR BRAIN LAUGHS

0:19:580:19:59

So, when you hear the special sound, which is going to be

0:19:590:20:02

the Guinea Pig squeal, that's when you're going to pull your

0:20:020:20:05

tablecloths and hopefully leave everything perfectly intact.

0:20:050:20:09

It's all about lightning-quick reactions, this game.

0:20:090:20:12

And the team that completely clears a tablecloth off the table

0:20:120:20:17

the quickest will get all the points.

0:20:170:20:19

Are you ready?

0:20:190:20:20

-ALL:

-Yes!

-Let's do it.

0:20:200:20:22

Get read-y-y!

0:20:220:20:24

STARTING ALARM

0:20:260:20:27

Oh, GP's hard work has certainly come crashing down.

0:20:290:20:33

What a shame and what a mess!

0:20:330:20:35

DR BRAIN LAUGHS

0:20:350:20:36

Lovely stuff there.

0:20:360:20:37

The winner was...the Greens!

0:20:370:20:39

-Yes!

-Yes!

0:20:390:20:41

Well done, you.

0:20:410:20:43

And because we enjoyed it so much, let's see it in slo-o-w mo-o-tion!

0:20:430:20:47

Er...

0:20:490:20:51

Blues? Hello? Hello, Blues?

0:20:510:20:53

Are you asleep? What's going...? Ah, there we go.

0:20:530:20:55

So, well done, you Greens, but can you do well in the next round?

0:20:550:20:59

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:20:590:21:02

So, Guinea Winny Winny Pig,

0:21:080:21:10

what immediately springs to mind when I say the word "custard"?

0:21:100:21:14

Oh, I love custard! Mmm!

0:21:140:21:16

Custard chips, custard pizza, custard mustard...

0:21:160:21:19

Guinea Pig, Guinea Pig. You're not thinking scientifically.

0:21:190:21:23

Now, we've got a little experiment using custard here, you see.

0:21:230:21:26

I've poured some into these little trays just to show you, look, here.

0:21:260:21:30

A little bit there. In it goes.

0:21:300:21:32

What our contestants have got to do is they've got to pick ten balls.

0:21:320:21:37

We've got ping-pong balls and basketballs.

0:21:370:21:40

They can use ten of either, or a mixture of both.

0:21:400:21:42

And they've got to bounce them across custard trays there

0:21:420:21:47

onto the Brainy target. HE LAUGHS

MUSIC: U Can't Touch This by MC Hammer

0:21:490:21:52

Yes...erm, yes, not quite...

0:21:520:21:53

Not quite what I meant, GP.

0:21:530:21:54

Oh, well. Let's see if our teams are more inspired.

0:21:560:21:58

Your thinking time starts now. BUZZER

0:21:580:22:01

How about those ones, because then they'd bounce, bounce, bounce...?

0:22:010:22:04

Because those are little, they will get stuck into custard, won't they?

0:22:040:22:09

I say we just do basketballs.

0:22:090:22:10

What about try one of each?

0:22:100:22:11

All the basketballs.

0:22:110:22:13

But do those bounce?

0:22:130:22:14

-Do five of each?

-Yeah, five of each.

0:22:140:22:16

These are more bouncier, really hard and they can keep...

0:22:160:22:19

We all have a go and the two people who do the best get another go.

0:22:190:22:21

-What have you gone for?

-Basically, five of each.

0:22:210:22:24

We've gone for basketballs.

0:22:240:22:26

Six basketballs and four ping-pong balls.

0:22:260:22:28

Let's see it in action. Three, two, one...go!

0:22:280:22:32

Wey-hey! Yellows first to score.

0:22:370:22:40

Can't go beyond it, but you... That's one for the Ramsays.

0:22:400:22:42

Basketballs working well.

0:22:450:22:47

You can stand up to the red line if you like.

0:22:490:22:51

Need a little bit of work on their aim.

0:22:510:22:53

You've got to get over that one now.

0:22:530:22:55

Go, Tills! Go, Tills!

0:22:550:22:57

Got it!

0:22:570:22:59

No ping-pong balls yet...

0:23:020:23:05

Oh, that's why.

0:23:050:23:07

Oh, nice, Tills!

0:23:070:23:09

One, two, three...

0:23:100:23:11

One last basketball. Yes!

0:23:190:23:21

There we go, that's it!

0:23:210:23:22

Let's see how it compared with the other teams

0:23:220:23:24

when we have a look at the scores.

0:23:240:23:26

It's time now for our post-experimental analysis,

0:23:260:23:29

so what do you think was happening there, folks?

0:23:290:23:32

-The ping-pong balls are rubbish.

-They do not work!

0:23:320:23:35

The ping-pong balls are rubbish!

0:23:350:23:37

They just go...splat.

0:23:370:23:39

The custard is what is called a non-Newtonian fluid,

0:23:390:23:42

which means it reacts differently

0:23:420:23:43

depending on how hard you hit it, you see.

0:23:430:23:45

The harder you hit it, the more like a solid it acts,

0:23:450:23:48

so the basketballs, which were nice and heavy,

0:23:480:23:50

made it react like a solid, but the ping-pong balls

0:23:500:23:53

just made it stay like a liquid, you see, as they are very light

0:23:530:23:55

and you would never have been able to bounce them with enough force.

0:23:550:23:59

Guinea Pig, show us, will you?

0:23:590:24:00

Dip your finger in it and let's see how it behaves like a liquid.

0:24:000:24:03

Now give it a smack, son! Go on! Boosh!

0:24:030:24:05

Bang! You see?

-Ha-ha-ha-ha!

0:24:100:24:11

So, you all did pretty well, you all had a pretty good go,

It was the Blues! You get ten points there!

-I hope they don't,

0:24:400:24:41

that would be pretty disgusting. Mind you, the Ramsays,

0:24:410:24:44

they would probably scoop it up and make a nice risotto out of it.

0:24:440:24:48

Right, are you ready for the quickfire round?

No! No, no, no!

0:27:470:27:49

They were going, "Bock-bock, bock-bock-bock!"

0:27:490:27:51

No, Guinea Pig, Guinea Pig, it was just a joke.

0:27:510:27:54
