0:00:02 > 0:00:04Hello, it's Brain here.
0:00:04 > 0:00:08I've created some real mind teasers for our team today.
0:00:08 > 0:00:09Here's a couple for you to try.
0:00:20 > 0:00:21Here's another one.
0:00:24 > 0:00:25What veg is in the pot?
0:00:34 > 0:00:36I'll give you the answers at the end of the show.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39Now let's see whether our team today has what it takes to...
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Beat The Brain.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Please welcome an unquestioned master of his trade.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04It is John Craven.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Thank you very much indeed. And welcome to Beat The Brain.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Now, this is your chance to test yourself against the sharpest
0:01:11 > 0:01:14mind on television. I am talking about Brain.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16- Are you feeling good today? - Super fit.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20I've had my nutritional bowl of brain flakes and I am raring to go.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24Well, let's meet our team today. Please introduce yourselves.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28I am Sue and I am a retired primary school teacher.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31I am Ant and I am a county councillor in Hertfordshire.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35I'm Gill and I am a university research associate.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39I'm Kevin. I am the team captain and I am a project manager in banking.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42Kevin, as a captain, what are you going to call your team?
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Our team is called Wickett Brood.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46- Not a wicked brood? - Not a wicked brood, no.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47We're Wickett Brood.
0:01:47 > 0:01:48Why Wickett?
0:01:48 > 0:01:52Where we practice, as a morris side, it is a little village called
0:01:52 > 0:01:56Bricket Wood. So we have spoonerised it and switched the first letters
0:01:56 > 0:02:00- around and called... - So, are you all morris dancers?
0:02:00 > 0:02:01- Yeah.- We are.- Ah.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Anyway, are you ready to play?
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- We are ready to play The Brain. - Good. Well, here is how works.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10The show's brain is divided into six Zones.
0:02:15 > 0:02:19Now, The Brain will select four of these six Zones for you to
0:02:19 > 0:02:21play today. Kevin, as captain,
0:02:21 > 0:02:24you must then nominate which team member you think will perform
0:02:24 > 0:02:27- best in each of the Zones. Got that?- I've got that, yeah.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29You are playing for time instead of points,
0:02:29 > 0:02:31with every correct answer adding
0:02:31 > 0:02:33three seconds to your total,
0:02:33 > 0:02:34what we call your Brain Bank.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36And the more time you build up,
0:02:36 > 0:02:39the more chance you have of beating The Brain in the big final
0:02:39 > 0:02:41and walking away with today's jackpot
0:02:41 > 0:02:43of £3,000.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45So, Wickett Brood, are you ready to play?
0:02:45 > 0:02:47- ALL:- Yes!- All right.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50Well, time to find out which Zone you'll be facing first.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Brain, a Zone, please.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01Orientation it is. So, Kevin, who are you going to nominate?
0:03:01 > 0:03:03- I'm going to put Gill in for Orientation.- Why is that?
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Gill's big hobby is geocaching.
0:03:06 > 0:03:11That means a lot of walking around the country with maps
0:03:11 > 0:03:13and GPS stuff and trying to find her way around.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17Sounds like an ideal candidate. So, Gill, please come and join me.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20- Good to see you.- Hello.- Hi.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Please explain a little bit more about geocaching.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Well, it is a hobby that really came into its own
0:03:26 > 0:03:30since GPS has been available, in about 2002.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34People hide little boxes in the landscape
0:03:34 > 0:03:36and they post their coordinates onto a shared website.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39You can download them and go and find them, which sounds in itself
0:03:39 > 0:03:43fairly boring, but actually, they put them in really unusual places.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46If you know secret places that even the tourist world doesn't
0:03:46 > 0:03:48know about, put a geocache there
0:03:48 > 0:03:49and those in the know go and find it.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52You think it is a wise choice of Kevin to put you here...
0:03:52 > 0:03:55- SHE LAUGHS - ..at this very moment?
0:03:55 > 0:03:57We decided which Zones we liked best,
0:03:57 > 0:04:00and I was the only one who said, "I'll do Orientation."
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Well, let's see if you find our version of Orientation
0:04:03 > 0:04:05as challenging as geocaching.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07You will play two games in this Zone,
0:04:07 > 0:04:11both games of three questions, worth three seconds each.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13So, Brain, what is the first game?
0:04:13 > 0:04:15- Hello, Gill.- Hello, Brain.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18- Are you nervous?- Yes.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20So you should be, my dear.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Your first game is...
0:04:25 > 0:04:29Gill, which wheel matches the one on the left? To help you,
0:04:29 > 0:04:31have a trial run.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Ooh. Aah. Umm... Yeah. There.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42Oh, dear, that set is quite difficult, actually.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45- So there's...- Look at the three at the top, say.- Yes, OK.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47So there's a green and a blue together,
0:04:47 > 0:04:50so I'm looking for one with a green and a blue together.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52A and D have got...
0:04:52 > 0:04:54- What about D?- No, I think it is A.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58- No.- You think it is A? - Yes. I think it is A.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Cos it is going to spin around. Let's see if it is A.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05- You're right.- Oh! That's good.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07- So not as easy as it might look. - No, no. It definitely isn't.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09So let's play the game.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Well, Gill, you got there eventually.
0:05:12 > 0:05:17But remember, you have a maximum of 45 seconds to answer three questions.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Please remember, I can only accept your first answer.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24Every correct answer will add three seconds to your Brain Bank.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Gill, your game starts now.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30OK.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Uh...
0:05:33 > 0:05:37A black next to a green and a white.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Um...
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Ah!
0:05:42 > 0:05:43Oh, I think it is D.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47D, right, correct. Next one.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52Oh, gosh, that was fast. Two blues together with a green.
0:05:52 > 0:05:53I think it is C.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Let's see if you are right. Yes, you are right.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59One last one, with 15 seconds to go.
0:05:59 > 0:06:00Concentrate.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04Sorry, black and white. Ah... Dah, dah, dah...
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Green, blue... That's B.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11B, you are saying B. And you are correct, with three seconds left.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13- Thank you! - THEY LAUGH
0:06:13 > 0:06:15That was a bit close to the wire, wasn't it?
0:06:15 > 0:06:16So, that's a pretty good start.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Let's see what The Brain has for you in game two.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Oh, Gill, I can feel your confidence mounting.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24You can?!
0:06:24 > 0:06:26No. Here is your second game.
0:06:29 > 0:06:30Ah.
0:06:30 > 0:06:35Match the viewpoint on the left to the number two position on the right.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37To get your eye in, Gill, have a trial run.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41Oh, wow.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45There is a ring and a cone
0:06:45 > 0:06:48and a triangular thing.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51It looks to me like it must be five.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Five, you are thinking.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56And you are correct. On we go, Brain, please.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Gill, you have a maximum of 45 seconds to answer
0:06:59 > 0:07:00- three questions.- Right.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Your game starts now.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10Oh, that is a big one in the foreground.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- And that's the middle. I think it is seven.- Seven, you say.
0:07:13 > 0:07:14And you are correct.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Next one, please.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Oh, they are coming very fast.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22- I think it is six. - Six, you're saying.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Are you correct? Yes, you are.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Well done. And you have one more coming.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Here it is.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- I think that must be one. - That was quick. Number one.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33And you are correct. Well done.
0:07:33 > 0:07:34Well done for those two.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38She really showed you how to play the games there, Brain.
0:07:38 > 0:07:39Don't say that, John.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43Nobody shows me how to do anything, I am a brain, The Brain.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Gill, it was a very good start.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48You added 18 seconds in that Zone.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50This means, in total, Wickett Brood
0:07:50 > 0:07:54- have 18 seconds in their Brain Bank. - Well done, Gill.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56You couldn't have done better than that. Maximum points
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- for your team in the first round, so well done.- Thank you.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Well, it is time to find out which Zone we are going to next
0:08:03 > 0:08:04and who is going to take it on.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07So, Brain, a Zone, please.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Memory, so, Kevin, team captain.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16- Well... - Who are you selecting for Memory?
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Since teachers have to remember all the children's names,
0:08:20 > 0:08:21students' names,
0:08:21 > 0:08:23I think this one is down to Sue.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25- Thank you(!)- OK, Sue, come on in.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31- Pleased to meet you, John.- And you too. Very pleased to meet you.
0:08:31 > 0:08:32Are you still teaching?
0:08:32 > 0:08:35No, I retired last summer to help my daughter look
0:08:35 > 0:08:38- after my grandchildren. - Do you miss it?
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Um, I miss the teaching with the children,
0:08:40 > 0:08:41I don't miss the paperwork.
0:08:41 > 0:08:46And when it comes to mental tests, are you a great games player?
0:08:46 > 0:08:49I love playing games on the computer and in the newspapers, yeah.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- I like doing Sudokus and other things like that.- OK.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57So, Brain, please reveal the first game Sue will be playing today.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00- Hello, Sue.- Hello, Brain.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03A little bit of advice about this first game -
0:09:03 > 0:09:06some people play it well and some don't.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07It's called...
0:09:10 > 0:09:14Sue, you will see four named pictures.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17After five seconds, the pictures will disappear.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19One will come back.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23Tell us what its name is. To give you some practise, have a trial run.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- So, who is that?- That was Sylvester, the bear.- Sylvester, the teddy bear.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Let's see if you are correct.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41And you are indeed. So well done. Brain, over to you.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45Please remember, Sue, I can only accept your first answer.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Your game starts now.
0:09:56 > 0:10:01- That's Chico.- Chico, let's see. Chico, you're right, yes.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02Good, good.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10- That's Platt.- Platt, the boot.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Let's see if you're right. You are indeed.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14And just one to go now.
0:10:21 > 0:10:22That's Helen.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28Yes, you are right. Good. That is a pretty good memory, isn't it?
0:10:28 > 0:10:33- Thank you.- In that round, certainly. So let's see how you do in game two.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36- You did very well there, Sue. - Thank you, Brain.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Here is your second game.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44You will see different ingredients being added to a pot.
0:10:44 > 0:10:49You must tell us how many of each went in. Have a trial run.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06Three carrots, two broccoli, one onion.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08So that is...
0:11:08 > 0:11:11- Oh. A, I think.- A.
0:11:11 > 0:11:12Let's see if you are correct.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15- Yep, your logic was right on that one, wasn't it?- Yes.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19- Right, so, are you confident? - I think so.- Ready to go?
0:11:19 > 0:11:21I hope so, yeah.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23OK, Brain, please play the game.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27Please remember, Sue, I will only accept your first answer.
0:11:27 > 0:11:28Your game starts now.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Carrot, carrot. That's two carrots. One broccoli. One pepper.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Three carrots. Two broccoli. One pepper.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Three broccoli, three carrots, one pepper.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46- So...- Three carrots, three broccoli, one pepper.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48- That is B.- B.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51Let's see if you are correct. You are indeed. Well done.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52So move on to our second one.
0:11:59 > 0:12:03That's a pepper. Two peppers. And an onion. Two onions, two peppers.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05One carrot.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08Three peppers, two onions, three...two carrots.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Three peppers, two carrots, two onions.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13That's... Oh!
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Oh. I might have gone wrong. It might be four peppers.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18- I'm going to go for D. - You are going to go for D.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20- Let's see if you are right. - Yeah.- Correct.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Must have missed one of those peppers.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24I was too busy focusing on the onion, probably.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27You went for the right one eventually, didn't you? Yes.
0:12:27 > 0:12:28- One more to go.- OK.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36That is a carrot and an onion. One carrot, one onion, one broccoli.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Two carrots, one onion... Two, two, one.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Two, two, two.
0:12:41 > 0:12:42One, two.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Right, three... I am looking for three carrots.
0:12:45 > 0:12:46I am looking for two onions.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48I'm looking for a pepper and some broccoli.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51- I am going to go for C, but I am not that confident.- C.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53- Let's see if you are right. - SHE GASPS
0:12:53 > 0:12:57- No!- It was B, I'm afraid. - I'm so sorry.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59You were very, very close.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01So you just caught her out at the end, Brain, didn't you?
0:13:01 > 0:13:04I know, and I don't care!
0:13:04 > 0:13:08Sue, you added 15 seconds in that Zone.
0:13:08 > 0:13:09This means, in total,
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Wickett Brood have 33 seconds in their Brain Bank.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- That is pretty good. - Thank you very much. Thank you.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Right now it is time to find out which Zone is next
0:13:19 > 0:13:21and who's going to take it on.
0:13:21 > 0:13:22Brain, a Zone, please.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Language it is.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32So, Kevin, who are you going to say will do well in Language?
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- I am going to land Ant with Language.- Cheers, mate(!)
0:13:35 > 0:13:36That's all right.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39OK, well, Ant, come and join me in the Language Zone.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45- How are you feeling, Ant?- Yes...
0:13:45 > 0:13:47I've got a hard act to follow after the girls.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49- You have, they have done very well, haven't they?- Yeah, yeah.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52- So, do you like games?- I do.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55I like puzzles. Cryptic crosswords is my sort of favourite,
0:13:55 > 0:13:58although I wouldn't say I'm brilliant at them. It's challenging.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Well, that sounds to me as though you should be really good.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02- We'll see.- Let's find out.
0:14:02 > 0:14:03So, don't forget,
0:14:03 > 0:14:06there are another 18 precious seconds on offer in this Zone.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09That is three seconds for every correct answer.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Brain, please reveal the first game that Ant is going to play.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15How do you do, Ant?
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Very well, thank you, Brain.
0:14:16 > 0:14:21Yowzer, there is something about a man in tomato red trousers that
0:14:21 > 0:14:23makes my neurons pulse.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Anyway, on with the game. Here is your first one.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32Find the word that fits between the other two.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Each dash represents a letter.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37You can warm up by having a trial run, Ant.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Phone, plate. Six letters.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45I would say that is number.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Phone number. Number plate.
0:14:47 > 0:14:51Let's see if that is correct. It is indeed. Well done.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55- So, let's play the game, shall we?- Right.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58You can have as many guesses as you like, Ant, but I will not move
0:14:58 > 0:15:02on to the next question until you give me the correct answer or pass.
0:15:02 > 0:15:06- OK.- You only have 45 seconds to answer three questions.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10Every correct answer will add three seconds to your Brain Bank.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Your game starts now.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Legal eagle.
0:15:16 > 0:15:17Legal...
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Angel. Angel. Something Angel.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25- Six letters.- You can always pass.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29- I was thinking... Pass.- Pass, OK.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31The answer is guardian.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33- Legal guardian, guardian angel. - Oh!- Next one.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Hand.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Second hand, you say.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Correct. Last one.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43Double...
0:15:45 > 0:15:47Oh, my goodness.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50- Double...- Five letters.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Cheese. Big cheese. No.
0:15:54 > 0:15:55Double...
0:15:56 > 0:15:58- Two seconds left.- Oooh...
0:15:58 > 0:16:03No? Oh, dear me, your time is up, Ant. What was it?
0:16:03 > 0:16:05Let's see what that missing word was. Cream.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09- Double cream.- Double cream. - Cream cheese.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11- Shucks.- Easy now, isn't it?
0:16:11 > 0:16:12Once we have seen the answer.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Oh, Brain, you were being hard on him there.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19I know, I was being so evil!
0:16:19 > 0:16:22Taking your revenge on the tomato-coloured trousers.
0:16:22 > 0:16:27- Absolutely.- Right, Brain, can we have the second game, please?
0:16:27 > 0:16:30Here you are. And here is your second game.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38Ant, what word is missing from all three others?
0:16:38 > 0:16:40Here is a trial run of what I mean.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47There is a word in the middle of those three, what is it?
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Three-letter word.
0:16:50 > 0:16:51Din.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55Yes, you are right. You did very well there, Ant.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59- Thank you, John.- Are you ready to play?- Yep, go for it.- OK.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Please, can we play the game, Brain?
0:17:01 > 0:17:04You have 45 seconds to answer three questions.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07Your game starts now.
0:17:10 > 0:17:11The missing word there.
0:17:13 > 0:17:14Three letters.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20U-something-I-A.
0:17:22 > 0:17:2330 seconds left.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27- Sculp, sculped. Cul.- Hm.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29- Cul?- Co?
0:17:29 > 0:17:30Cul, C-U-L.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33C-U-L, let's see if you are right.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35No, it was top.
0:17:35 > 0:17:36Next one, please.
0:17:39 > 0:17:40Ill.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41Ill.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44Yes, it is. Well done. Next one, you've got 11 seconds.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51HE MUTTERS
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- For. F-O-R.- For, F-O-R.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57- Well done. Just in time. - Whoa!- In the nick of time there.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01- That one was tough.- Yeah, well, two out of three is not bad.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Brain, how you think Ant did there?
0:18:04 > 0:18:07Well, Ant, I got you breathing heavily there, didn't I?
0:18:07 > 0:18:09- You sure did.- The story of my life.
0:18:09 > 0:18:14Ant, you added nine seconds in that Zone. This means, in total,
0:18:14 > 0:18:18Wickett Brood now have 42 seconds in their Brain Bank.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Going incredibly well for your team, Ant.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23So, Kevin, you are the final player.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25So why don't you swap places with Ant
0:18:25 > 0:18:28and we'll find out which Zone you will be playing?
0:18:31 > 0:18:35- Hi, John.- Good to see you, Kevin. A lot resting on your shoulders now.
0:18:35 > 0:18:39- Oh, broad shoulders.- And how are you at playing games like this?
0:18:39 > 0:18:42I thought I was very good till I saw some of these questions earlier.
0:18:42 > 0:18:43I think they're tougher than we thought.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47Well, you've got Multitasking, Logic and Observation still left.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48Which would you like?
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Oh, I'd like Multitasking, but I don't want to tempt
0:18:51 > 0:18:53- The Brain into giving me something I don't like.- OK.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57Let's find out which Zone The Brain has got in store for you.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Brain, the Zone, please.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- Ah.- Oh, thank you, Brain(!) - JOHN LAUGHS
0:19:08 > 0:19:10You don't think it might be your strongest point?
0:19:10 > 0:19:13- I'm fairly sure it is not my strongest point.- We'll see.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17Brain, please reveal the first game that Kevin will be playing today.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19How do you do, Captain Kevin?
0:19:19 > 0:19:23- How do you do, Brain?- You know, I love brain teasing morris dancers.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26It's the only time you can truthfully hear the words,
0:19:26 > 0:19:29"Pull the other one, it's got bells on."
0:19:29 > 0:19:32LAUGHTER This is your first game, Captain.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39Count the number of times the lights come on.
0:19:39 > 0:19:40Kevin, have a trial run.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00- How many times did the lights flash?- Yeah.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02I think that was 19.
0:20:02 > 0:20:0519, you're saying. Let's see if that is correct.
0:20:05 > 0:20:06It is, yes.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Very well observed.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11OK, Brain, let's play the game for real.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Please remember, I can only accept your first answer.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Your game starts now.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- How many times did they flash? - 16.- 16, you are saying.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Is he right?
0:20:38 > 0:20:40He is indeed. Right. On to the next one.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00- So, how many times did they flash? - Oh, I think that was 14.
0:21:00 > 0:21:0314, you are saying. Is he correct?
0:21:03 > 0:21:06He is indeed. You are pretty good at Traffic Lights.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Here comes the last one.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27- How many times that time? - I lost count.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29JOHN LAUGHS
0:21:29 > 0:21:32- Going for 16.- You are going for 16. That is a guess, is it?
0:21:32 > 0:21:36So, we'll see. It was a brilliant guess.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41- I counted 15, but I thought I'd lost count.- Well, well done indeed.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43- Yeah, that was a fantastic guess, wasn't it?- Yeah, it was lucky.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Brain, can we have the next game, please?
0:21:45 > 0:21:49- Oh, you lucky, lucky boy, Captain Kevin.- Yes, thank you, Brain.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Here is your second game.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Tell me the order in which the balloons pop.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Here is a trial run to help you get a feel for the game.
0:22:07 > 0:22:11That was... I think that was blue, purple, red.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Blue, purple, red, you are saying.
0:22:14 > 0:22:15And you are correct. Yes.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Well, I think, Kevin, you got the hang of that one.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19So, ready to play?
0:22:19 > 0:22:21- Give it a go.- Right, off we go.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25Please remember, I can only accept your first answer.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27- OK, Brain.- Your game starts now.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Red, yellow, blue.
0:22:35 > 0:22:36Are you correct?
0:22:37 > 0:22:39You are indeed. Next one, please.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51- Purple, blue, yellow.- Purple, blue, yellow, you are saying.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55Indeed, you are correct. You have got one more balloon popping to go.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Oh, there's four.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Blue, yellow, red, purple.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06Blue, yellow, red, purple.
0:23:06 > 0:23:07You are absolutely right.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10You weren't caught out by that extra balloon, were you?
0:23:10 > 0:23:13- And they were moving. - They were moving, yes. So well done.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15I don't think you could've done better than that, Captain.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18- Thank you.- In fact, your team have done very well. Haven't they, Brain?
0:23:18 > 0:23:23Well done, Captain Clever Clogs. Not that I am bitter.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27But, Kevin, you added 18 seconds in that Zone.
0:23:27 > 0:23:31This means, Wickett Brood, you have finished with a grand total of
0:23:31 > 0:23:3460 seconds in your Brain Bank.
0:23:34 > 0:23:3660 seconds! Well done.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Well played. A captain's innings there.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41So, we have finished our individual Zones
0:23:41 > 0:23:45and it is now time for our team to try to beat The Brain one last
0:23:45 > 0:23:49time and take home some cash, some serious cash, in today's final.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Well, Wickett Brood, our team of morris dancers,
0:23:56 > 0:24:00you were playing for time and now you are playing for money.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03You need to get eight questions right within the 60 seconds that
0:24:03 > 0:24:05you added to your Brain Bank.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09Do that and you win our jackpot today of £3,000.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12If you fail to get the eight right within that time,
0:24:12 > 0:24:13all is not lost.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16The Brain has given you another two minutes to get the answers
0:24:16 > 0:24:20that you need. However, as the time counts down, so does the money.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24And if the clock reaches zero, you win nothing.
0:24:24 > 0:24:28Kevin, you have chosen the order in which your team are going to play.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30- I have. - What is your strategy behind that?
0:24:30 > 0:24:33Ant wanted to go first to get it over with, I think.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37Gill really wanted to go second and I thought I'd bring up the rear.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40- And left Sue to go third.- OK.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44It is time to get serious. Let's start today's final.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46Over to you, Brain.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49Wickett Brood, you will only face questions from the games you
0:24:49 > 0:24:51have already seen today.
0:24:51 > 0:24:56But for every game in the final, I will only accept your first answer.
0:24:56 > 0:24:57Beat me if you can.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00As usual, we'll start with the player on the left, that's Ant.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Once you have given me two correct answers, Ant,
0:25:03 > 0:25:04we move on down the line.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06OK?
0:25:06 > 0:25:07Let's start the game.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Which wheel matches the one on the left?
0:25:15 > 0:25:16B.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Correct.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Charlie.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29No.
0:25:29 > 0:25:30What word in the middle?
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Roller.
0:25:32 > 0:25:33Yes. Gill.
0:25:38 > 0:25:39What's in the pot?
0:25:39 > 0:25:41C.
0:25:41 > 0:25:42Correct.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Nine.
0:25:51 > 0:25:52No.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55What is the missing word?
0:25:56 > 0:25:58Old.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Incorrect.
0:26:00 > 0:26:01Which viewpoint?
0:26:03 > 0:26:04Eight.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Yes. Sue.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13Purple, yellow, red.
0:26:13 > 0:26:14Correct.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23Barack.
0:26:23 > 0:26:24Yes. Kevin.
0:26:30 > 0:26:31Nine.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32Correct.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Which wheel matches the one on the left?
0:26:38 > 0:26:39D.
0:26:39 > 0:26:40Stop the clock!
0:26:41 > 0:26:46- So, eight correct answers and you have won £2,275.- Wow!
0:26:46 > 0:26:49THEY CHEER
0:26:49 > 0:26:50Team, well done!
0:26:52 > 0:26:56That deserves a little morris dance, doesn't it?
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Kevin, you must be proud of your team.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Oh, I am very proud of the team. I'm totally exhausted,
0:27:00 > 0:27:02I don't know about them.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04So, how are you going to spend the money, any idea?
0:27:04 > 0:27:08- Straight down to the sweet shop. - THEY LAUGH
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Well, what do you think about all that, Brain?
0:27:10 > 0:27:12Well, just to show I am not a sore loser,
0:27:12 > 0:27:15imagine the sound of melodeons and bells.
0:27:15 > 0:27:16Here I go...
0:27:16 > 0:27:19IRISH ACCENT: # Oh, I thought that I was perfect
0:27:19 > 0:27:21# But my confidence was misconstrued
0:27:21 > 0:27:23# For they beat me hard with bells on
0:27:23 > 0:27:28# Oh, how I hate that great Wickett Brood. #
0:27:28 > 0:27:29Well done, Brain.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32On that note, I'll say thank you, all, for watching at home.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34I hope you have enjoyed playing the game.
0:27:34 > 0:27:39- It is goodbye from Wickett Brood. - TEAM:- Bye!
0:27:39 > 0:27:42- It is goodbye from Brain.- Goodbye. - And it is goodbye for me.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44See you the next time. Bye for now.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49Before you go, here are the answers to the two questions
0:27:49 > 0:27:51I gave you at the beginning of the show.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00The answer is yellow, blue, red.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02And here's the second one.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04What veg is in the pot?
0:28:10 > 0:28:13The answer is...B.
0:28:14 > 0:28:15Did you get them right?
0:28:15 > 0:28:18Join in for more challenging games
0:28:18 > 0:28:20next time on Beat The Brain.
