They've come from all over the UK, ordinary people with extraordinary abilities.

0:00:020:00:07

Powers so pointless, they will rock the very foundations of society.

0:00:070:00:12

Heroes will rise.

0:00:120:00:14

Legends will be born.

0:00:140:00:16

This is Epic Win!

0:00:160:00:20

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:00:230:00:25

Please welcome your Epic host, it's Alexander Armstrong!

0:00:250:00:29

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:00:290:00:32

Thank you. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and this is Epic Win, the show that

0:00:400:00:43

scours the country to find great British heroes with jaw-droppingly senseless superpowers.

0:00:430:00:49

For example, can you knit spaghetti?

0:00:490:00:51

Can you recreate the image of Huw Edwards using only your hair?

0:00:510:00:55

Or can you juggle dust?

0:00:550:00:57

Well, these are precisely the types of useless skills that people will be demonstrating on this show.

0:00:570:01:02

And it all happens here in the Epic Centre.

0:01:020:01:04

AUDIENCE: Oooh!

0:01:040:01:06

Yes! This is where our heroes come to have their powers tested.

0:01:060:01:10

If they pass the challenge we set them, they'll earn themselves the title of Epic Winner,

0:01:100:01:14

and get the chance to win some cold, hard cash.

0:01:140:01:16

But if they don't, they'll leave the studio as a penniless Epic Fail, through the dreaded Fail Door.

0:01:160:01:22

AUDIENCE: Aw!

0:01:220:01:24

Now, as always, this show is going to be pretty epic,

0:01:240:01:27

so there three panellists who'll be deciding how much our challengers' skills are worth.

0:01:270:01:31

So, Joe, in that lovely Saturday night voice of yours, will you please introduce this week's guests?

0:01:310:01:36

Gazing in wonder at public pointlessness tonight, our panel are...

0:01:360:01:40

She's got more characters than the Japanese alphabet, it's comedian Katy Brand!

0:01:400:01:46

APPLAUSE

0:01:460:01:49

When Katy fills her car up, the counter always stops bang on the pound! Epic Win!

0:01:490:01:55

She knows her way around the Queen Vic's pumps, it's Eastenders' Rita Simons!

0:01:580:02:03

APPLAUSE

0:02:030:02:06

Rita looked in the fridge this morning and there was still one yoghurt left. Epic Win!

0:02:060:02:11

And you can take the man out of London, but ask

0:02:130:02:16

first or he'll press charges, it's stand-up Micky Flanagan.

0:02:160:02:21

APPLAUSE

0:02:210:02:22

Last week at the airport, Micky's suitcase came out first on the baggage carousel. Epic Win!

0:02:220:02:28

A big hand for Joe Lycett, please!

0:02:310:02:33

OK, well, the panel will be awarding cash to our Epic Winners.

0:02:360:02:39

How much money will depend on how impressed they are with our contenders' skills.

0:02:390:02:42

So let's meet tonight's first challenger, who's hoping to secure an Epic Win.

0:02:420:02:46

My name's Tony Luckhurst. I'm from Ealing, West London.

0:02:480:02:51

I've been a butcher 42 years. 42 years, man and boy!

0:02:510:02:56

My father was a butcher, my father's father was a butcher, it's in my blood.

0:02:580:03:03

What people don't understand is good butchery's like art, and I love art.

0:03:050:03:10

Roll it, roast it.

0:03:130:03:16

Leg of beef, stew it.

0:03:160:03:19

Ring rib, put it in a frame, hang it on the wall.

0:03:190:03:22

APPLAUSE

0:03:250:03:28

Well, he knows his meat, but does he have the chops to Epic Win?

0:03:280:03:32

Please welcome Tony Luckhurst!

0:03:320:03:34

APPLAUSE

0:03:340:03:37

Tony Luckhurst... Ooh!

0:03:480:03:50

He has a butcher's hands.

0:03:500:03:53

-What's your favourite meat?

-All of it.

0:03:530:03:56

-All of it?

-Yeah.

0:03:560:03:57

-Really?

-Yeah.

-You're not fussy?

-No, not at all.

0:03:570:04:00

Well, this is Epic Win, which means you really are going to have to put your knowledge to the test.

0:04:000:04:04

So, tell us, Joe, what exactly is Tony's challenge tonight?

0:04:040:04:07

To Epic Win tonight, Tony Luckhurst has to identify meat with his feet!

0:04:070:04:14

AUDIENCE: Wooh!

0:04:140:04:17

That is spectacularly useless. Tony will be inspecting plates of meat...

0:04:170:04:22

with his... Well, with his plates of meat!

0:04:220:04:24

So, Tony, come with me, we will meet the panel, who will be judging your challenge.

0:04:240:04:29

I've got a word to say to you, Tony... Quorn.

0:04:290:04:32

-Quorn?

-Quorn.

0:04:320:04:34

-What's all that about?

-The future.

0:04:380:04:40

-The future of...?

-How do you feel about non-meat eaters?

-I love them.

0:04:400:04:45

-Braised?

-Yes!

0:04:450:04:48

We have a fantastic challenge before us now, and to find out

0:04:480:04:51

how it works, let's head over to the Veal of Fortune!

0:04:510:04:55

Ooh, look at that.

0:04:570:04:58

So, as you can see, on our Veal are ten plates of meat.

0:05:030:05:05

We'll ask the panel to pick five plates and if Tony can identify

0:05:050:05:09

three of them with his feet, it's an Epic Win and he'll go on to play for the money.

0:05:090:05:12

But if not, it's going to be a slightly sticky walk to the Fail Door.

0:05:120:05:18

-Tony, it's three out of five for an Epic Win, are you ready?

-I'm ready.

0:05:180:05:22

OK. Katy, pick a plate.

0:05:220:05:24

Ooh. I'm going to go for number five, please.

0:05:240:05:27

OK, number five.

0:05:270:05:29

Joe, spin it to number five.

0:05:290:05:30

And show everyone what's under the dome.

0:05:300:05:33

Oh, delicious.

0:05:330:05:36

Best foot forward.

0:05:360:05:38

Look at those expert toes, look at them!

0:05:380:05:41

Wiggly, wiggly!

0:05:410:05:43

Is it still called dexterity when it's feet?

0:05:430:05:45

It's spongy. It's...

0:05:450:05:47

This is horrible.

0:05:470:05:49

I think I know what this is. It's tripe.

0:05:490:05:53

CHEERING

0:05:530:05:55

-Which wasn't tripe, because it was tripe!

-He's got guts, hasn't he?

0:05:550:06:00

It could have been offal!

0:06:000:06:02

Sorry! OK, now, Rita?

0:06:040:06:07

I think I'm going to choose number two.

0:06:070:06:10

Thank you very much, Mr Joe.

0:06:100:06:13

Reveal what lies beneath the dome of number two.

0:06:130:06:16

A good source of protein.

0:06:160:06:18

Like all meat.

0:06:200:06:22

OK. Ooh. What are you thinking there, Tony?

0:06:240:06:28

I know instantly.

0:06:280:06:30

You know instantly what that is?

0:06:300:06:32

-I know instantly. That's the great feel of liver.

-Ooh!

0:06:320:06:35

No, no, no, no, no.

0:06:360:06:40

He knew instantly, but got it wrong instantly.

0:06:400:06:45

Kidney. One out of two so far. Here is your third plate.

0:06:450:06:47

Micky Flanagan.

0:06:470:06:49

I think we all learnt something there, didn't we?

0:06:490:06:53

Just think for a second.

0:06:550:06:58

Um...

0:06:580:07:00

I'm going to go for... I'm going to go for number four.

0:07:020:07:06

Number four, says Micky Flanagan.

0:07:060:07:10

-Mmm!

-Ooh.

0:07:100:07:12

Just feeling to see if there's any bone in it. I can't feel any.

0:07:140:07:18

I might use my left foot here, actually for a bit of, er...

0:07:180:07:21

-Why not? Go for it. Live on the edge.

-This is very difficult,

0:07:210:07:27

-and I'm not 100% on this one.

-This is quite forensic, isn't it?

0:07:270:07:30

This is lamb scrag.

0:07:300:07:33

CHEERING

0:07:330:07:36

Very well done, Tony! He pulled it back with lamb scrag.

0:07:360:07:39

It's like a penalty shoot-out.

0:07:390:07:41

-One more from you, please, Rita.

-Number ten, please.

0:07:410:07:46

Number ten. Ooh! Ooh!

0:07:460:07:48

Yummy, yummy, yummy!

0:07:480:07:51

Wow, OK, there you are, Tony.

0:07:510:07:52

You dive in.

0:07:520:07:55

There's a bit of bone on the edge. I'm thinking that it

0:07:570:08:00

may be a chop of some kind. So, sort of feeling around

0:08:000:08:06

the sides of it...

0:08:060:08:07

-You are giving that a lovely tenderising.

-Yes.

0:08:070:08:10

I feel that this is a pork chop.

0:08:120:08:14

CHEERING

0:08:140:08:16

Micky, Micky, Micky, you're so fine! You're so fine, you blow my mind!

0:08:220:08:26

Hey, Micky.

0:08:280:08:30

You've got very nice feet, if I can say that.

0:08:300:08:33

I was really worrying about looking at your... I don't like looking at people's feet.

0:08:330:08:36

I want flip-flops banned in zones one and two, to be honest.

0:08:360:08:41

Anyway, that's another issue.

0:08:410:08:45

No, I was impressed, but I felt that

0:08:450:08:47

I wasn't as impressed as I, you know, initially thought I would be, to be honest.

0:08:470:08:51

I've got to be honest with you, Tony.

0:08:510:08:54

I'm thinking if any of your regulars are watching, they are going to be freaked out right now.

0:08:540:08:58

I think your meat sales might drop a little bit.

0:08:580:09:01

I think they will be impressed at how well I know my products.

0:09:010:09:04

Well, Tony, you are an Epic Winner, that means that you've won the delightful Epic Win trophy!

0:09:040:09:09

That will definitely go home with you. But as an Epic Winner, the panel will put a value

0:09:110:09:15

on your skill, and you could leave with some cash in your pockets.

0:09:150:09:18

So join me in the Epic Centre, we'll find out what your win is worth.

0:09:180:09:23

OK, panel, each of can give up to £1,000 to put into Tony's pot, so here's the big money question.

0:09:230:09:29

How much is a man who can name meat with his feet worth?

0:09:290:09:33

Decide now and lock in the money.

0:09:330:09:35

Look at me, Tone.

0:09:350:09:37

Look at me!

0:09:370:09:39

-Yeah.

-Yeah. We'll see.

-I've got your number.

0:09:390:09:44

You just lost a tenner.

0:09:460:09:48

OK, the money's locked in. Tony, we've totted up the amounts that our

0:09:510:09:54

three panellists think your power deserves, and the grand total could be anything from £3 if they are

0:09:540:09:58

being stingy, up to £3,000 if they are being incredibly generous.

0:09:580:10:02

Joe will offer you increasing sums of money.

0:10:020:10:03

If you stop the money before going over the total, it'll be an...

0:10:030:10:06

Epic Win!

0:10:060:10:09

And you'll go home with whatever money you stopped on.

0:10:090:10:12

But if you wait too long and go even one pound over the panel's total, how much will he go home with, Joe?

0:10:120:10:18

Zero pounds!

0:10:180:10:20

Yes. Now, ready to play?

0:10:200:10:22

Let's turn powers into pounds.

0:10:220:10:24

All right, let's do it.

0:10:240:10:27

-What's it going to be?

-£673.

0:10:320:10:36

-More than that.

-It's a derisory sum. You are right to shun it.

0:10:360:10:40

-£769.

-What are you thinking, Tony?

0:10:460:10:48

AUDIENCE: More!

0:10:480:10:49

They are saying more over there.

0:10:490:10:53

Yes.

0:10:530:10:55

-£1,674.

-That's the one.

-He's going for it! Wow.

0:10:590:11:06

-CHEERING

-OK.

0:11:060:11:08

Very well done.

0:11:080:11:10

Tony, you've stopped

0:11:100:11:11

the money at £1,674. Did you make the right decision?

0:11:110:11:16

Or have you overvalued yourself and lost the lot? Let's take a look.

0:11:160:11:20

Epic Win!

0:11:330:11:35

CHEERING

0:11:350:11:38

Very well done. Very well done.

0:11:380:11:41

I tell you what, Tony, you cut the money off in time,

0:11:410:11:44

so you are going to be leaving us with a pretty impressive sum -

0:11:440:11:47

-£1,674. You can't be upset with that.

-No.

0:11:470:11:49

But here's the killer question, could you have held out for more?

0:11:490:11:53

Or were you right to stop the money when you did? Let's see the panel's total.

0:11:530:11:58

It was exactly right!

0:12:000:12:02

Spot-on! Let me shake your big butcher's hand! Very well done.

0:12:020:12:07

An altogether satisfactory outcome.

0:12:100:12:12

Let's see how much our panellists gave you

0:12:120:12:14

with the breakdown...

0:12:140:12:17

-Top man!

-You see?

0:12:170:12:20

-You see what he did there?

-Yes.

-Ooh, Micky, you're a sly one.

0:12:200:12:24

-Psyching you out, man.

-Yeah.

0:12:240:12:27

Well, congratulations, Tony, you are officially the Master of Meat.

0:12:270:12:30

You head out of here with £1,674, plus, let me give you this...

0:12:300:12:36

-Oh, wow!

-The Epic Win Trophy! This is what you came for.

0:12:360:12:39

There you are, Tony, very well done, you.

0:12:390:12:43

-APPLAUSE

-Now... Yes.

0:12:430:12:45

Ladies and gentlemen, the STEAKS were high, but he didn't put a foot wrong.

0:12:470:12:52

He's my hero and yours, Tony Luckhurst!

0:12:520:12:55

APPLAUSE

0:12:550:12:58

Brilliant. Now, we search far and wide

0:13:100:13:12

to bring you the most mind-boggling powers on this show, and every so often, we find something that's just

0:13:120:13:17

a bit too huge to fit into our stadium of senselessness. And our next contender is no exception.

0:13:170:13:22

Please welcome Hugh Edeleanu!

0:13:220:13:25

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:13:250:13:27

Hugh Edeleanu. Welcome.

0:13:340:13:37

Lovely to have you here. So, Hugh's the head of a digger hire company.

0:13:370:13:41

He actually lets people loose on them on stag and hen parties.

0:13:410:13:44

He's also founded a chain of digger-based adventure parks called Diggerland, officially the most fun

0:13:440:13:49

you can have in a hard hat and a high-vis jacket without being a member of the Village People.

0:13:490:13:53

So what's the difference between Diggerland and a normal building site?

0:13:530:13:57

Certainly families aren't allowed on building sites.

0:13:570:14:00

Ah. Very good point.

0:14:000:14:02

Joe, please reveal what Hugh's challenge will be tonight.

0:14:020:14:06

For his Epic Win, Hugh has to pour two glasses of champagne... using a digger!

0:14:080:14:14

-AUDIENCE: Ooh!

-Wow.

0:14:140:14:16

Here are the details of Hugh's challenge.

0:14:160:14:18

First, he has to select a bottle of champagne from an ice bucket, then remove the foil, wire and cork.

0:14:180:14:23

And finally, he has to lift the bottle back up and successfully pour two full glasses of fizz, and all

0:14:230:14:29

using a mechanical digger. So let's see how Hugh got on.

0:14:290:14:32

So off we go for the Epic challenge.

0:14:320:14:36

Look at that concentration, look at those nostrils flaring.

0:14:400:14:46

Machine doing everything a man can do, only slower.

0:14:490:14:53

More nostril work!

0:14:530:14:56

Having said that, there are waiters in Paris who could do that slower.

0:14:560:15:00

Obviously, he still needs to develop a machine

0:15:040:15:06

that can get the bottle out of the cellar.

0:15:060:15:09

Total dominion of man over digger.

0:15:150:15:18

Look at that! Beautifully done!

0:15:180:15:21

There we go. Precision.

0:15:290:15:32

You normally get six glasses of champagne out of a bottle like that.

0:15:320:15:36

Not if you pour it like that, you don't.

0:15:360:15:38

Now, you only have to drop that bottle and the whole bet is off.

0:15:410:15:45

-Whoa! Look at that.

-APPLAUSE

0:15:450:15:49

That was astonishing, and you've served yourself up an Epic Win.

0:15:520:15:56

Many congratulations. So let's see what the panel made of that. Katy?

0:15:560:16:00

I'm completely won over.

0:16:000:16:04

From now on, that is how I want my champagne served to me.

0:16:040:16:07

Accept nothing less.

0:16:070:16:09

What's the little fork thing on the end? Is that normally on the end of a digger?

0:16:090:16:14

Because I thought that was a bit cheaty.

0:16:140:16:17

-Oh, Rita!

-Are you not happy with the modified digger?

-Really?

0:16:170:16:21

-I'm not happy.

-You thought with the teeth that far apart?

-Well, the task is the task.

0:16:210:16:26

So, Micky, what are you thinking?

0:16:260:16:29

I'm vacillating.

0:16:290:16:31

I'm swinging between realising that it is quite a skill, but then I'm sort of...

0:16:310:16:37

I don't like it when you start adding things on to something.

0:16:370:16:40

Oh. But the precision!

0:16:400:16:42

-The flared nostrils!

-Yeah.

0:16:420:16:44

We'll see.

0:16:440:16:46

OK. Well, Hugh, you are an Epic Winner, and that means you're taking home the Epic Win trophy!

0:16:460:16:50

But can you take home some cold, hard cash?

0:16:500:16:53

It's time to play our money game and find out what your Epic Win is worth in the Epic Centre.

0:16:530:16:59

CHEERING

0:16:590:17:03

OK, panel, each of you has up to £1,000.

0:17:040:17:07

So how much do you think Hugh's mechanical maitre d' deserves?

0:17:070:17:10

Make up your minds and lock it in.

0:17:100:17:14

-Katy's doing some maths.

-Just doing a few calculations.

0:17:140:17:17

OK. The money's locked in. Hugh, you have seen how this works.

0:17:210:17:24

You just have to hit the button before you go bust.

0:17:240:17:27

Do that and it will be an...

0:17:270:17:29

Epic Win!

0:17:290:17:30

CHEERING

0:17:300:17:32

But try to take more than what the panel has given you and you will go home with...

0:17:320:17:35

Zero pounds!

0:17:350:17:38

That's right. Nothing.

0:17:380:17:40

Remember, the total sum of money the panel's awarded could be the first offer. Are you ready?

0:17:400:17:45

-I'm ready.

-Right. Hands on the big red button.

0:17:450:17:48

Here we go.

0:17:480:17:49

-£749.

-What do you think?

0:17:540:17:57

AUDIENCE: More!

0:17:570:18:00

They are saying more. They are saying more.

0:18:000:18:01

-More.

-You think more?

-I hope so.

0:18:010:18:04

£1,147.

0:18:070:18:10

AUDIENCE: More!

0:18:100:18:11

-What are you thinking?

-I'm thinking maybe more.

0:18:110:18:16

Maybe more, he's going to hold out.

0:18:160:18:19

-Maybe more.

-OK.

-Right.

0:18:190:18:20

Out he holds.

0:18:200:18:23

£1,469.

0:18:280:18:31

What are you thinking now?

0:18:310:18:33

I'm thinking of a holiday I might be able to go on.

0:18:330:18:35

-AUDIENCE: More!

-They're saying more.

0:18:350:18:37

-They're saying more. You...

-No!

0:18:370:18:41

You're going to go higher?

0:18:410:18:43

You're going to go higher, you might be blowing the lot here.

0:18:430:18:46

£1,537.

0:18:460:18:49

£1,537?

0:18:490:18:51

AUDIENCE: More!

0:18:510:18:52

-Help me. Help me.

-I'm hearing voices saying stick, voices saying more...

0:18:520:18:56

-You're going to go for more?

-I am.

-He's going to go for more!

0:19:000:19:02

Could this be recklessness, or could it just be

0:19:020:19:05

extremely canny money management?

0:19:050:19:07

£1,603!

0:19:120:19:15

£1,603. He's hit the red button!

0:19:150:19:17

He's hit the red button! OK.

0:19:170:19:19

Well, Hugh, how confident are you? You played a...

0:19:200:19:27

You played a waiting game there.

0:19:270:19:29

-Well...

-He played a WAITING game with the thing as well!

0:19:290:19:32

-GROANING

-See? That's why I'm doing this show!

0:19:320:19:35

LAUGHTER

0:19:350:19:37

Have you valued yourself too highly, or is it time to break open the bubbly?

0:19:370:19:41

Let's see, let's see. Come on.

0:19:410:19:43

(I think it's higher, by the way.)

0:19:470:19:48

(That's better than nothing.)

0:19:510:19:53

Zero pounds.

0:19:570:20:00

AUDIENCE: Aw!

0:20:000:20:01

Oh, you've overvalued yourself.

0:20:030:20:06

What was the panel's total? Let's just find out, Joe.

0:20:060:20:10

I think I'm going to be getting a tent for my holiday.

0:20:100:20:12

Oh, dear. Let's see what our panellists gave you.

0:20:130:20:16

See how that broke down.

0:20:160:20:18

Wow!

0:20:210:20:23

He can't look you in the eye.

0:20:230:20:25

Micky, you've made an enemy of a man with a big digger.

0:20:250:20:28

-Is that wise?

-I think he's got digger envy.

0:20:280:20:32

LAUGHTER

0:20:320:20:33

I'm sending out a signal to people who are going to come on this show -

0:20:330:20:38

it might be meaningless and ridiculous, but it's serious as well.

0:20:380:20:42

We can't have people just coming on here and rewriting the rule book,

0:20:420:20:46

fixing a fork on to the end of it, putting a cone down to put the bottle in.

0:20:460:20:51

What if the meat bloke had come on, took his shoes off and had a finger grafted on to his...?

0:20:510:20:57

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:20:570:21:00

OK. Thank you, panel. Hugh, I don't need to tell you

0:21:020:21:05

but you held on too long, so you won't be leaving here with any prize money tonight.

0:21:050:21:10

But on the up side, you still have this Epic Win trophy!

0:21:100:21:13

Yay! There you go.

0:21:130:21:15

That is yours, my friend.

0:21:150:21:17

Raise your glasses, folks. He's a true hero,

0:21:170:21:19

It's Hugh Edeleanu!

0:21:190:21:22

CHEERING

0:21:220:21:23

Very well done.

0:21:230:21:26

He might not have won the money but that was a cracking win.

0:21:340:21:37

Let's see if our next hero in waiting can match it.

0:21:370:21:40

Who is it going to be?

0:21:400:21:42

Ordinary streets.

0:21:430:21:45

Ordinary houses. Ordinary doors.

0:21:450:21:49

But behind ordinary doors live extraordinary people like Sharon.

0:21:490:21:55

My name's Sharon and I'm John Travolta's number-one fan.

0:21:550:21:58

A woman who takes her adulation of celebrity to a shocking new level.

0:21:580:22:03

It was in 1976 in OH BOY! magazine when I first set eyes on John.

0:22:030:22:07

That was 34 years ago and I've been hooked ever since.

0:22:070:22:10

I've got pillows, cushions, dolls and action figures. There's a lot of stuff built up over the years.

0:22:100:22:16

For Sharon, Grease is definitely the word.

0:22:160:22:20

I changed my name to Sharon Johnette Travolta on John's birthday...

0:22:200:22:23

Excuse me?!

0:22:230:22:25

I change my name to Sharon Johnette Travolta on John's birthday, 18th February, 1994.

0:22:250:22:31

People thought I was crazy.

0:22:310:22:32

It's just more proof that I'm John's number one fan.

0:22:320:22:35

It doesn't bother me what people think.

0:22:350:22:38

If they don't like it, that's too bad.

0:22:380:22:40

The woman who puts the "fan" into "massive fan".

0:22:440:22:46

She's more than a woman, she's Sharon Johnette Travolta!

0:22:460:22:49

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:22:490:22:52

Johnette Travolta. Welcome to Epic Win. Lovely to have you.

0:23:020:23:05

-Thank you very much.

-Sharon's been collecting Travolta memorabilia for nearly 35 years.

0:23:050:23:09

She saw The Taking of Pelham 123 50 times at the cinema,

0:23:090:23:12

and six of those was on the day the film was released.

0:23:120:23:15

-You changed your name to Sharon Johnette Travolta?

-Yes.

0:23:150:23:18

Why didn't you just go with Johnette Travolta?

0:23:180:23:21

I thought I'd keep my original name, because that is my name,

0:23:210:23:25

but I thought Johnette as a middle name, you know?

0:23:250:23:27

-It sounds not too bad.

-I take your point.

0:23:270:23:30

I was this close to going with Alexander Zola Budd.

0:23:300:23:33

But do people ever think you're related? They must do.

0:23:330:23:36

They do say, they do comment, "any relation?"

0:23:360:23:38

-Then I say things like...

-"Yes, I'm married to him."

-Yeah!

0:23:380:23:41

-"He's my husband."

-That would be nice.

0:23:410:23:44

For anyone who doubts being obsessed with John Travolta qualifies as a superpower,

0:23:440:23:48

it's time to reveal the nature of Sharon's challenge. Joe.

0:23:480:23:51

To Epic Win tonight, Sharon has to identify John Travolta films just from his hairline!

0:23:510:23:59

AUDIENCE: Ooh!

0:23:590:24:01

What a surprisingly useful skill that is.

0:24:010:24:03

I've got a very good feeling about this one.

0:24:030:24:06

To show you how Sharon's challenge is going to work, let's go to the pictures.

0:24:060:24:11

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:24:110:24:14

-Yeah, Sharon, please, take a seat.

-Thank you.

0:24:140:24:17

Come round and sit down here.

0:24:170:24:20

Oh... Very good indeed.

0:24:200:24:23

Oh...my...goodness!

0:24:230:24:27

WHOOPING

0:24:270:24:31

-Do you want... Do you want some marshmallows?

-In a bunch?

0:24:350:24:38

Delicious non-branded drinks?

0:24:380:24:41

I'll have a drink, thank you.

0:24:410:24:43

-I actually can't, they're sort of glued in.

-Oh.

0:24:430:24:47

Can I have some popcorn?

0:24:470:24:50

Ooh, Mr Telly, "I want my popcorn!" I'll go and get your popcorn.

0:24:500:24:54

We only had a small.

0:24:580:24:59

Thank you very much! Would you like some popcorn?

0:24:590:25:04

I'll have some popcorn.

0:25:040:25:06

I'll pop that down there. OK, look, here's how it works.

0:25:060:25:09

On our silver screen, we're going to show Sharon a series of Travolta hairlines.

0:25:090:25:13

All she has to do is match each hairline to the film it featured in.

0:25:130:25:16

If you can name ten correctly in 60 seconds, she'll be declared an Epic Winner.

0:25:160:25:22

If not, she'll be asked to leave through the Fail Door.

0:25:220:25:26

OK. Yes. Over to you, Joe.

0:25:260:25:28

# Da da da Da da da da da da da da...

0:25:280:25:31

# Da da da, da, da da da!

0:25:310:25:35

# Da da da, da, da da da!

0:25:350:25:38

# Da da, da da... # Your time starts now!

0:25:380:25:42

-That's Phenomenon.

-Phenomenon, one.

0:25:440:25:46

-Face Off.

-Two.

0:25:470:25:49

-Carrie.

-Three.

0:25:490:25:52

-Bolt.

-Four!

0:25:530:25:55

-Michael.

-Five!

0:25:550:25:58

-Erm, Old Dogs.

-Six!

0:26:000:26:02

Erm, Get Shorty.

0:26:030:26:05

Oh! Six, still.

0:26:050:26:09

-Erm, Wild Hogs.

-Seven.

0:26:090:26:12

-Saturday Night Fever.

-Eight!

0:26:120:26:15

-Erm, From Paris With Love.

-Nine!

0:26:160:26:19

Erm, The Taking Of Pelham 123.

0:26:210:26:22

Ten! There we are!

0:26:220:26:24

EPIC WIN!

0:26:270:26:28

Up we get. Oh, my word!

0:26:280:26:32

You answered 11 and you got 10 right in 44 seconds.

0:26:320:26:37

-Oh, wow.

-Wow. That is...

0:26:370:26:39

You are an Epic Winner.

0:26:410:26:43

-Congratulations!

-Oh, thank you.

0:26:430:26:45

-That was pretty amazing.

-Oh, thank you.

0:26:460:26:48

-Were you confident before you went in?

-Fairly confident.

0:26:480:26:52

How many did you know, Mr Flanagan?

0:26:520:26:54

The Saturday Night Fever one.

0:26:540:26:56

-Did you?

-Yeah, because I've watched that quite a lot of times.

0:26:560:26:59

-It changed my life, that film.

-Yeah.

0:26:590:27:03

Did you realise you should never, ever dance?

0:27:030:27:06

Sharon, you're an Epic Winner, so you are taking home a chunk of solid magic.

0:27:120:27:17

Yes, it's the Epic Win trophy!

0:27:170:27:19

A thing of genuine beauty. But what was your win worth?

0:27:190:27:23

The panel's total could be anything from £3 to £3,000,

0:27:230:27:25

and to win some cash, all you have to do is hit that button before you go over their combined total.

0:27:250:27:31

-But don't be too greedy, like the last man.

-OK.

0:27:310:27:34

£579.

0:27:380:27:41

SHOUTING

0:27:410:27:42

They're all saying more.

0:27:420:27:44

What are you going to do?

0:27:440:27:46

-Carry on.

-Carry on? Quite right.

0:27:460:27:48

£815.

0:27:530:27:55

-What are you thinking?

-Carry on.

-She's going to carry on, she's going to carry on.

0:27:550:27:59

It was very impressive after all. Don't forget. 44 seconds.

0:27:590:28:05

£1,123.

0:28:050:28:07

More, they're still saying.

0:28:080:28:10

-What are you thinking?

-I'm thinking of stopping there.

-You're going to stay?

-Yeah.

0:28:100:28:15

She's going to stop! She's going to stop!

0:28:150:28:18

CHEERING

0:28:180:28:19

£1,123. Sharon Johnette Travolta, that is a sum you have decided

0:28:190:28:23

to stick on, but will you be taking that sum home,

0:28:230:28:26

-or have you gone over the top and you'll be taking home, Joe, remind us?

-Zero pounds.

0:28:260:28:33

Yeah, exactly. OK. So let's discover.

0:28:330:28:36

EPIC WIN!

0:28:400:28:41

Yay!

0:28:410:28:44

Yes, Sharon Johnette Travolta, you stopped the money in time!

0:28:440:28:47

That means you will be taking home not only the Epic Win trophy, but also £1,123.

0:28:470:28:54

-Many congratulations.

-Thank you.

-But what we want to know is

0:28:540:28:57

were you bang on target, or could you have held out for more?

0:28:570:29:01

Let's see what the panel thought you were worth.

0:29:010:29:03

-Oh!

-No way!

0:29:070:29:09

What have you done?!

0:29:100:29:12

-What have you done there?

-I don't believe it.

0:29:120:29:14

The total they can award is £3,000.

0:29:140:29:17

Look how impressed they are. They're almost tearing up.

0:29:170:29:21

I've got chills!

0:29:210:29:23

-They're multiplying!

-They're multiplying!

0:29:250:29:27

Wow. Wowee. Let's just see what each of our panellists gave you.

0:29:290:29:34

Ah! Oh! Micky Flanagan.

0:29:360:29:40

There is nothing you can do with this.

0:29:400:29:44

We're not going to see anything more ridiculous than this.

0:29:440:29:47

It is what the show's about, and you were brilliant...

0:29:470:29:50

Exactly the sort of pointless activity that should be rewarded with large amounts of money.

0:29:500:29:54

I also appear to look like the meanie here now. I was...

0:29:540:29:57

-Yeah, mean!

-Well, I only took £2 off...

-You took £2 off?!

0:29:570:30:01

I took £2 off thinking Micky was going to give you nothing.

0:30:010:30:04

I thought I'd better give you loads, because he's going to give you...

0:30:040:30:08

Don't you worry about my game. You play your own game!

0:30:080:30:11

Don't ever get into panto, will you?!

0:30:110:30:13

Oh, yes, I will.

0:30:130:30:16

Listen, Sharon, you are clearly beyond a shadow of a doubt,

0:30:160:30:20

an epic superfan, and you will be leaving here with £1,123 and...

0:30:200:30:26

..the Epic Win trophy. There you are.

0:30:270:30:31

Please, take it.

0:30:310:30:33

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:30:330:30:35

She's the true Queen of the Quiff, ladies and gentlemen.

0:30:350:30:38

A heroic victory for Sharon Johnette Travolta!

0:30:380:30:41

Very well done.

0:30:410:30:42

We've seen some staggering skills on the show tonight

0:30:520:30:55

but there's still time for one more slice of Epicness.

0:30:550:30:58

Please welcome Robin Wood!

0:30:580:31:00

CHEERING

0:31:000:31:02

Robin Wood. Welcome, welcome, welcome to Epic Win.

0:31:080:31:13

Fantastic. Robin Wood.

0:31:130:31:14

You're one letter away from being a folk hero.

0:31:140:31:16

And maybe just a few moments away from being a national hero.

0:31:160:31:20

You're a wood sculptor, you started as a tree surgeon,

0:31:200:31:23

your current project is a wooden panda that you're sculpting for Edinburgh Zoo.

0:31:230:31:27

That's nice, isn't it? Got to keep the population up somehow.

0:31:270:31:30

Listen, I am hoping for something truly epic here.

0:31:300:31:33

What is Robin's challenge going to be?

0:31:330:31:35

Hoping to nail an Epic Win tonight, Robin Wood will become the Chainsaw Chef!

0:31:350:31:41

Very good.

0:31:410:31:43

What exactly does being a chainsaw chef entail?

0:31:430:31:47

We're giving Robin some vegetables, a wok, a camping stove, some oil,

0:31:470:31:50

soy sauce and a piece of tree trunk and, using his chainsaws,

0:31:500:31:54

he has to prepare and serve a tasty stir fry in three minutes.

0:31:540:31:58

To make this tricky, we won't give him any crockery or cutlery. He has to make those himself.

0:31:580:32:02

Your three minutes will start after your first cut.

0:32:020:32:05

I will hide over there in Cowardy Custard Corner with my goggles. Let's get cooking!

0:32:050:32:10

CHEERING

0:32:100:32:12

OK. Go!

0:32:160:32:19

He's got to rustle up a vegetable stir fry plus a way to serve it.

0:32:210:32:25

That means a bowl and a fork.

0:32:250:32:27

OK, that's the vegetables sliced and diced.

0:32:380:32:41

That's the ingredients in place. Oh, quick change of chainsaw.

0:32:440:32:49

Robin's been wood sculpting for seven years.

0:33:040:33:07

This is fast food as you've never seen it.

0:33:100:33:13

Remember, this log will have to produce a wooden bowl

CHEERING

0:33:500:33:51

A big stir there, don't want burnt veg.

0:33:530:33:56

One minute left on the clock.

0:34:130:34:15

Giving it a polish now. This man's a perfectionist.

0:34:290:34:34

30 seconds left!

0:34:430:34:45

Almost there. And that's the bowl done.

0:34:540:34:56

Just needs to serve up now.

0:34:560:34:59

Ha-ha-ha! Well done!

0:35:030:35:07

EPIC WIN!

0:35:070:35:09

Very, very well done!

0:35:090:35:11

Congratulations, Robin. That looks delicious.

0:35:110:35:17

It is all right, you know.

0:35:170:35:18

You get chips as well, fantastic!

0:35:180:35:20

Robin, you are an Epic Winner, and you had eight seconds to spare.

0:35:200:35:24

-Uh-huh.

-And you've still got all ten fingers!

0:35:240:35:27

Damn, that's me down a tenner.

0:35:270:35:29

OK. Come with me and let's find out what the panel thought of that.

0:35:290:35:33

Micky, do you want to take your cans off?!

0:35:330:35:35

-No, this is how I want to live the rest of my life.

-OK.

0:35:350:35:39

Look, it's a beautiful bowl.

0:35:390:35:41

-That's lovely. Mmm!

-That is a culinary treat, look at that.

0:35:430:35:46

Very good. Very, very good indeed.

0:35:470:35:51

-That's very nice, do you want to try some?

-What have you done with it?

0:35:530:35:57

Mmm! Ooh, yum! Yeah.

0:35:570:35:59

Mmm, I'm getting oaky, I'm getting nutty, I'm getting...

0:36:020:36:06

splintery.

0:36:060:36:08

-Very splintery.

-Micky, would you try some?

-No, I'm working class, I don't eat that rubbish.

0:36:080:36:13

It's a bit samey, I've been watching versions of this all my life.

0:36:180:36:21

I've seen ice sculptors, people carving stuff...

0:36:210:36:26

But that's just doing ice. He made supper.

0:36:260:36:30

That's a world first.

0:36:300:36:31

That was proper culinary chopping.

0:36:310:36:34

Robin, you are an Epic Winner, no question of that.

0:36:370:36:40

That means you are taking home our glorious Epic Win trophy.

0:36:400:36:43

AUDIENCE: Wooh!

0:36:430:36:46

OK, panel, once again you have up to £1,000 each.

0:36:460:36:49

It's up to you to decide how much a man who can

0:36:490:36:51

chop up a chop suey is worth.

0:36:510:36:53

As you know, the panel's total could be anything from £3 to £3,000.

0:36:530:36:58

It's up to you when to hit the big red button.

0:36:580:37:00

OK, here we go.

0:37:000:37:02

£175.

0:37:090:37:12

AUDIENCE: More!

0:37:120:37:13

-They're saying more.

-I reckon more, I hope so.

0:37:150:37:17

£1,066.

0:37:220:37:23

AUDIENCE: More!

0:37:230:37:25

It's on 1066, everyone is saying more.

0:37:250:37:28

-What are you thinking?

-A bit more.

0:37:280:37:30

You're going up? He's going higher.

0:37:300:37:33

£1,690.

0:37:400:37:43

What are you thinking? What are you thinking?

0:37:440:37:47

Oh... Keep going, but...

0:37:470:37:49

-You're going to go on, aren't you?

-Yeah.

0:37:490:37:51

Robin's going on!

0:37:510:37:54

Very popular decision.

0:37:560:37:59

£2,031.

0:37:590:38:01

INDISTINCT SHOUTING

0:38:010:38:03

He's going to take it! Robin has pressed the big red button

0:38:070:38:11

on £2,031. So, will you be taking that money home with you

0:38:110:38:15

or have you bitten off more than you can chew?

0:38:150:38:18

Let's find out. Joe...

0:38:180:38:19

Epic Win!

0:38:290:38:31

CHEERING

0:38:310:38:33

Very well done. Place it right there. Very good.

0:38:330:38:36

Well, yes, you stopped the money before you went bust,

0:38:360:38:39

which means you will be taking home £2,031. Very well done.

0:38:390:38:45

Here is the big question. Did you hit the panel's total bang on?

0:38:450:38:48

Or could you have held out for more money?

0:38:480:38:51

-Oh!

-CHEERING

0:38:540:38:55

Very, very well gauged.

0:38:550:38:56

My maths tells me you were £152 out, so that's not bad at all.

0:38:580:39:02

-I'm happy.

-Let's see what the panel individually decided you were worth.

0:39:020:39:07

AUDIENCE: Ooh!

0:39:080:39:10

Oh, look at that!

0:39:100:39:12

-Thank you!

-Katy Brand.

0:39:120:39:13

You've gone the full grand there.

0:39:130:39:16

Yeah, well, what can you say about a man who brings me dinner

0:39:160:39:18

in under three minutes and carves the bowl?

0:39:180:39:21

-That's got to be worth a grand, hasn't it?

-I'll say.

0:39:210:39:24

Rita, just the £850 from you.

0:39:240:39:27

I was really impressed, especially when I thought you'd really made

0:39:270:39:31

a mess of the bowl and you didn't. It was brilliant.

0:39:310:39:34

And, Micky Flanagan.

0:39:340:39:36

BOOING

0:39:360:39:39

No, this is...

0:39:400:39:42

BOOING

0:39:420:39:44

I'm still getting paid.

0:39:460:39:48

LAUGHTER

0:39:480:39:50

OK, Robin, you are the Chief of Chainsaws, no doubt.

0:39:500:39:55

You are buzzing off with £2,031, but much more important than that,

0:39:550:39:58

you are taking this, my friend, the Epic Win trophy.

0:39:580:40:02

-Very well done.

-Thank you.

-Very well done indeed.

0:40:020:40:05

So, ladies and gentlemen, he came, he sawed, he conquered.

0:40:050:40:09

Show some love for the hero that is Robin Wood!

0:40:090:40:12

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:40:120:40:16

There we have it, that is all the public preposterousness we have time for. Thanks to our panel,

0:40:280:40:31

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
