0:00:02 > 0:00:05Hello, it's me, Brain.
0:00:05 > 0:00:09Our team of four are poised for a strenuous mental workout.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12To get you in the mood, try these two examples.
0:00:15 > 0:00:17What's the phrase or saying?
0:00:25 > 0:00:28A clock is reflected in a mirror. What's the real time?
0:00:32 > 0:00:35I'll give you the answers at the end of the show.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Now, let's see if our four contestants can work
0:00:37 > 0:00:40together as they try to beat The Brain.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59APPLAUSE
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Please welcome a man who can challenge my mind any day,
0:01:03 > 0:01:06- it's John Craven. - Well, thank you very much indeed.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Hello, and welcome to Beat The Brain.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Now, prepare yourself for a mental workout that will
0:01:11 > 0:01:15test your little grey cells like no other quiz on television.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19Without further hesitation, let's meet our questioning queen.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20How are you today, Brain?
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Super, John. Hey, here's a question for you -
0:01:23 > 0:01:25who's your favourite brain?
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- Oh, that's a hard one. - BRAIN GASPS
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- Of course YOU are! - Ha-ha! Correct, you little tease.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34- You're so clever.- How clever is our team going to be today?
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Let's find out by meeting them. Please introduce yourself.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39I'm Paul and I'm a teacher and an author.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41I'm Naomi and I'm a teaching assistant.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43I'm Joe and I'm a project manager.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46I'm Olivia, I'm team captain, and I'm a nurture officer.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48- APPLAUSE - Welcome.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50You're all from Newport in South Wales and, Olivia,
0:01:50 > 0:01:54- as team captain, have you chosen a name for the team?- Team Cerebrum.
0:01:54 > 0:01:55Why is that?
0:01:55 > 0:01:59We like to think of ourselves as quite intelligent
0:01:59 > 0:02:02- but we're debating the name now. - Maybe you want to change it later.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04- We'll see.- I hope not.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06And what's the connection between the four of you?
0:02:06 > 0:02:09There's my fiance, there's my cousin and my father.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Ah, so it's very much a family team effort.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Do you think you're going to beat The Brain? What do you think, Paul?
0:02:15 > 0:02:18I think we've got a 50-50 chance of beating The Brain.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Well, we'll see what happens, OK?
0:02:20 > 0:02:24This is how it works. The show's brain is divided into six Zones.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33Now, The Brain will select four out of the six Zones for you to
0:02:33 > 0:02:36play today and, Olivia, as the team captain, it's up to you to decide
0:02:36 > 0:02:41which of the members you think will play best in each of the Zones. OK?
0:02:41 > 0:02:44You'll face a series of questions in your Zone with each correct answer
0:02:44 > 0:02:47adding three seconds to what we call your Brain Bank.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49And the more time you build up,
0:02:49 > 0:02:50the better chance you have
0:02:50 > 0:02:52of beating The Brain
0:02:52 > 0:02:57in today's final and walking away with our jackpot of £3,000.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01- So, Cerebrum, are you ready to play? - Yeah.- Right, OK.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Well, it's time to find out which Zone you'll be facing first.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Brain, the Zone, please.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15So, Olivia, Orientation, who do you think will be best at that?
0:03:15 > 0:03:18- What are you thinking? Joe? - Yeah.- So?- Joe.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21- You're volunteering Joe, are you? - Thank you.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Well, Joe, come and join me in the Orientation Zone.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27APPLAUSE
0:03:27 > 0:03:29I hear that you like food challenges.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Now, what on earth does that mean?
0:03:31 > 0:03:34It's a bit of a phenomenon at the moment where, you know,
0:03:34 > 0:03:37there's large plates of food that you then eat as a challenge
0:03:37 > 0:03:39and then if you win you get a prize or like a T-shirt
0:03:39 > 0:03:40or something like that.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43- And have you made any money from it? - No, no money.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Just some indigestion and a few T-shirts.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Here's your chance to win big money. - Great.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Shall we find out what's going to happen?
0:03:53 > 0:03:56You'll play two games in the Zone, both games have three questions
0:03:56 > 0:04:01worth three seconds each, so let's play the Orientation Zone.
0:04:01 > 0:04:02- Joe.- Yes, Brain?
0:04:02 > 0:04:07- I am the all-powerful Brain. Wiggle your eyebrows.- OK, Brain.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Wiggle your nostrils.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Levitate.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Only joking. Here's your first game.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22- What is the real time, Joe? To help you out, have a trial run.- OK.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27What's the real time?
0:04:29 > 0:04:33OK, so just flip it over. The real time would be ten to two.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35Ten to two, you're saying. Are you correct?
0:04:35 > 0:04:37You are indeed. No trouble with that one.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41- No, seems OK.- That was just a test. - That's right, yeah, yeah.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45- Now we play for real. Are you ready? - I am.- The Brain, game, please.
0:04:45 > 0:04:50You can have a maximum of 45 seconds to answer three questions, Joe.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53Please remember I can only accept your first answer.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Every correct answer will add three seconds to your Brain Bank.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Your game starts now.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06- OK, so that one is quarter to 11. - Quarter to 11.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Yes, that's correct. Next one.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13OK, that one is...ten to five.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Ten to five, yes, that's the real time.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18OK, and that one is...
0:05:21 > 0:05:23..25 to 5.
0:05:23 > 0:05:2825 to 5, yes, yes, correct, with 20 seconds still to spare.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30- APPLAUSE - Yeah, that wasn't too bad, yeah.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33As we say, different brains for different games.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35And that's obviously a game for your brain.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38- I wonder if the second game will be. - Here's hoping.
0:05:38 > 0:05:43- Can we have it, please, Brain? - Very quick there, Joe. That upset me.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Here's your second game.
0:05:47 > 0:05:52Match the viewpoint on the left to the numbered position on the right.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54To get your eye in, have a trial run.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03Which viewpoint, do you reckon? Out of one to eight.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07There, I think, with the pyramid on there,
0:06:07 > 0:06:09that's position number one,
0:06:09 > 0:06:11you can't really see the diamond at the back
0:06:11 > 0:06:16and that rules out that whole side there and then with the yellow
0:06:16 > 0:06:22hexagon shape on the south there it would lead me to number seven.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Number seven, you would say.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26You're absolutely right.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Very clever reasoning there. I think you're going to
0:06:28 > 0:06:29have to be a bit quicker.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Brain is not going to let you hang about quite as much
0:06:32 > 0:06:35when we play it for real. OK? Right, ready to play?
0:06:35 > 0:06:39Yes, remember you only have a maximum of 45 seconds to
0:06:39 > 0:06:43answer three questions and I will only accept your first answer.
0:06:43 > 0:06:44Your game starts now.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52- OK, I think that one's number eight. - Number eight, you're saying.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Yes, you're correct. Next one, please.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02- OK, that's number two. - Number two, you say.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Yes. One more to come.
0:07:06 > 0:07:0725 seconds left.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13- OK, that one's number four. - Number four, you say confidently.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Yeah. A clean sweep.
0:07:15 > 0:07:20That is very good indeed, you have 18 seconds in the first Zone.
0:07:20 > 0:07:24- Didn't he do well, Brain? - Yes, I'm distraught.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28Joe, you added 18 seconds in that Zone - full house.
0:07:28 > 0:07:33Which means in total Cerebrum have 18 seconds in their Brain Bank.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- APPLAUSE - Very good, Joe.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Your team will be proud of you and you can return to them now.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42So, it's time to find out which Zone is coming next
0:07:42 > 0:07:46and who is going to take it on. So, Brain, Zone, please.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53Observation.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56Olivia, who are you going to nominate for the Observation Zone?
0:07:56 > 0:07:59Erm... Yeah, I think Dad.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02I should have good observation skills. Should, being a teacher.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05- I have to observe what's going on around me.- Yeah.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06- Dad's going to do it.- Yeah.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Paul, come and join me in the Observation Zone.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13APPLAUSE
0:08:13 > 0:08:14Tell me a little bit about yourself.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18I've been a primary-school teacher for about 24 years
0:08:18 > 0:08:21- and then in the year 2000 I started to write children's books.- Oh.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24- So I've had five books published as well.- More than I have.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27You have other talents.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30What about your talents in the Observation Zone?
0:08:30 > 0:08:31Yes, I'll give it my best shot.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35OK, well, let's play the Observation Zone.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39Brain, please reveal the first game that Paul will be playing today.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41- Hello, Paul.- Hello, Brain.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44Imagine you've written a novel called The Brain,
0:08:44 > 0:08:46what would the first sentence be?
0:08:46 > 0:08:49"The Brain woke up in a particularly good mood, she was
0:08:49 > 0:08:52"astonished to see four such gorgeous contestants
0:08:52 > 0:08:53"sitting before her."
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Yeah, right(!) This is your first game.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03What's the difference in value between the two totals?
0:09:03 > 0:09:06To give you some practice, Paul, have a trial run.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13- What's the difference in the two?- I can see only one coin is different.
0:09:13 > 0:09:19- I think the difference is ten pence. - Ten pence, you're saying.- I think.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Is that correct? It is indeed.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23So you argued that correctly to yourself.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27I realised pretty soon it was a visual thing, maybe in that shot,
0:09:27 > 0:09:28rather than count the money.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Yeah, I think it is, you're probably right, it is
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- more visual than actual mathematics. - Yeah.- You ready to play?
0:09:33 > 0:09:36- Yeah, fingers crossed. - Right, we're ready, Brain.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39You have 45 seconds to answer three questions correctly.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43Please remember I can only accept your first answer.
0:09:43 > 0:09:44Your game starts now.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52The difference is four pence, I think.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53Four pence, correct.
0:09:59 > 0:10:0030 seconds left.
0:10:03 > 0:10:09- Having trouble with that one. - Talk yourself through it.- 40 pence.
0:10:09 > 0:10:1140 pence, you think.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15- Eight pence. So one to go. 15 seconds left.- OK.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27There's a 50 on that one, there's not a 50 on that one.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- Quick, have a guess, have a guess. - 40 pence.- 40 pence.
0:10:30 > 0:10:3345, almost correct.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36You made a very good start on that game, didn't you?
0:10:36 > 0:10:37The first one was easier.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40And then there were just too many coins all jumbled up.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Well, we'll see how you do on game two, shall we?
0:10:42 > 0:10:46- What game will Paul be playing? - Here's your second game, Paul.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Tell me which numberplate you saw.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53To get you in the groove, have a trial run.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04- Right, which of those six numbers? - I think it's...
0:11:04 > 0:11:09- YE42 THX.- X, yeah.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12- I think.- So you're saying, what? Number two?- Sorry, number two.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Number two, you're saying, let's see if you're correct.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Yes, you are indeed.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Quite observant when it comes to registration numbers?
0:11:19 > 0:11:21- Not normally so good.- Well, we'll see how good you are now.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25- Ready to play the game? - Ready to play, yeah.- Off we go.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29I can only accept your first answer. Your game starts now.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- Er, three, I think. - Number three, you're saying.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Yeah, that's correct, next one.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54- A bit quicker, that, wasn't it? - I think it was five.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56You think it was five, you're going for five.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59- Yeah, you're correct, well done. - That was fast.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Please don't let it be any faster.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10The other way that time.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14- Which one of those six? - Number five again, I think.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Number five, you're saying. Is that correct?
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Yes, it is. Well done.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21- Phew!- I haven't let the side down too badly.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23- Well, that was a full house on that game, wasn't it?- Yeah.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26So, Brain, you didn't quite fox him on that, did you?
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Not quite, and it'll really help you
0:12:29 > 0:12:33later in the final, Paul, because you added 12 seconds in that Zone,
0:12:33 > 0:12:37which means Cerebrum have 30 seconds in their Brain Bank.
0:12:37 > 0:12:41- Well done, Paul, please go and rejoin the team.- Thank you.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44We're halfway through now, Cerebrum family,
0:12:44 > 0:12:47- so, Naomi and Olivia, cousins.- Yes.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51- And just you two to go.- Yes. - How are you feeling at the moment?
0:12:51 > 0:12:54- Got a bit of girl power going on.- Yeah, yeah.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Well, you know the four possible options that might face you.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- Yeah.- Are you ready for it? - Yeah, let's do it.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Right, let's find out which Zone is next
0:13:01 > 0:13:03and who is going to take it on.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Brain, Zone, please.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15So, Olivia, what about Logic? Either you or Naomi.
0:13:15 > 0:13:16Yeah, I'll take it.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19The captain is going to play this Zone.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21Well, come and join me, Olivia.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23APPLAUSE
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Your team are doing very well so far. Are you feeling lucky?
0:13:28 > 0:13:30Yeah.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34This was my preferred round but I think it should be OK, hopefully.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36And when it comes to this Zone, you know,
0:13:36 > 0:13:40to Logic, are you a logical sort of person?
0:13:40 > 0:13:42I think so, yeah, I'd like to say I am, yeah.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Let's see how you do because, don't forget,
0:13:44 > 0:13:47there's another 18 precious seconds on offer in this Zone,
0:13:47 > 0:13:50that's three seconds for every correct answer,
0:13:50 > 0:13:51so let's play the Logic Zone.
0:13:51 > 0:13:55Brain, please reveal the first game that Olivia will be playing.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57- Hello, Olivia.- Hi, Brain.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00Your fiance, Joe, is gorgeous. That's logical
0:14:00 > 0:14:03but who's your favourite film actor?
0:14:03 > 0:14:06- Oh, I like Tom Hardy.- Oh, me too.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09He makes me tingle from my frontal lobe to my cerebellum.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Anyway, phew, here's the first game.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Olivia, identify the phrase or saying
0:14:18 > 0:14:20from the cryptic visual puzzle.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23You can warm up by having a trial run.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29Now. What phrase do you think that is?
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Cover working.
0:14:38 > 0:14:39Erm...
0:14:44 > 0:14:47Shall I tell you what I think it is? Because I've not seen this before.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52- Yeah.- I think that's Working Undercover.- Oh.- Is it?- Yeah. Yeah.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56Is it? Yeah. Can I have your points?
0:14:57 > 0:14:59That gives you some idea, so are you ready for it?
0:14:59 > 0:15:01- Yeah.- OK, off we go.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03You can have as many guesses
0:15:03 > 0:15:06as you like, but I will not move on to the next question
0:15:06 > 0:15:09until you give me the correct answer or you pass.
0:15:09 > 0:15:13You only have 45 seconds to answer three questions. Olivia...
0:15:13 > 0:15:15your game starts now.
0:15:21 > 0:15:22Six feet under?
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Six feet under. Well done, yep. Next one.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30- Half-time?- Half-time?
0:15:31 > 0:15:32- A game half...- Another go? Come on.
0:15:32 > 0:15:33A half...
0:15:33 > 0:15:35OLIVIA LAUGHS
0:15:35 > 0:15:37(Game half.... Game... Hmm...)
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Split... Game... Split game?
0:15:43 > 0:15:45- Pass.- You're passing on that one.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47- A Game Of Two Halves, OK?- Oh!
0:15:47 > 0:15:50Here is the last one. 14 seconds left.
0:15:50 > 0:15:51Times Square?
0:15:51 > 0:15:53Times Square. Yes, well done!
0:15:53 > 0:15:56- That was a hard one, that one. - Yeah, the middle one, I thought,
0:15:56 > 0:15:59if I could go on to the next and get it, I would still have...
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Yeah. It was good logic to pass there, because you were
0:16:01 > 0:16:04- really stumbling on that one.- I really was.- Everybody would have
0:16:04 > 0:16:08- been at home, I'm sure, as well. Ready for game two?- Yes, OK.
0:16:08 > 0:16:09Here is your second game.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16You must pick up the sticks in the correct order, from top to bottom.
0:16:16 > 0:16:17Here is a trial run.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22Yellow,
0:16:22 > 0:16:23red,
0:16:23 > 0:16:24black,
0:16:24 > 0:16:26white, blue, green?
0:16:27 > 0:16:28Let's see if you're right.
0:16:32 > 0:16:33That's what you said.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36- Well done.- OK. I can do this, I think!
0:16:36 > 0:16:39- Have you played this game before? - I like Pick Up Sticks, yeah!
0:16:39 > 0:16:43- Not quite our version before, but... - No!- Shall we pick up some sticks?
0:16:43 > 0:16:45- Let's do it, yeah!- Right, off we go.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47You have 45 seconds
0:16:47 > 0:16:52to answer three questions correctly. I will only accept your first answer.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Your game starts now.
0:16:56 > 0:16:57Yellow,
0:16:57 > 0:16:58white,
0:16:58 > 0:17:00red, blue, green, black.
0:17:00 > 0:17:01Is that correct?
0:17:05 > 0:17:07- Yes, it is!- Yay!- On to the next one.
0:17:08 > 0:17:09Yellow, black...
0:17:09 > 0:17:10Oh, no. Let's start again.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14- No... I'm sorry.- Oh!
0:17:15 > 0:17:19Next one, yeah. That was the order. Next one, now.
0:17:19 > 0:17:20Green,
0:17:20 > 0:17:21black,
0:17:21 > 0:17:23red, white, yellow, blue.
0:17:25 > 0:17:26Let's have a look.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Yes, that was correct. Well played.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33- I said white and I meant yellow. - We have to accept the first thing
0:17:33 > 0:17:34you say, I'm afraid.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36- You did well there.- Yeah, not bad.
0:17:36 > 0:17:40- Two out of three in each game of the Zone.- Yeah.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42So, Brain, what is your verdict on Captain Olivia?
0:17:42 > 0:17:45I got you a little flustered in the middle of that one.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47You did. It was all the Tom Hardy talk, first of all.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50I know! My evil plan worked!
0:17:50 > 0:17:53But, Olivia, you added 12 seconds in that Zone.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55This means, in total,
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Cerebrum have 42 seconds
0:17:57 > 0:17:59in their Brain Bank!
0:17:59 > 0:18:02That is very well done, Olivia. Hope you enjoyed playing
0:18:02 > 0:18:04against The Brain. Please rejoin your team-mates.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07- Well, Naomi, you are the final player.- Yeah.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10So, why don't you come and join me and we will find out
0:18:10 > 0:18:13which of the final three Zones you will be playing?
0:18:13 > 0:18:16APPLAUSE
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Now, you, I hear,
0:18:18 > 0:18:20lost five stone in one year.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24- That's amazing.- I have, yeah. I have been running with my dog.
0:18:24 > 0:18:25I just did the Newport Half Marathon.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- Do you feel a lot better for it? - Yeah, definitely.
0:18:28 > 0:18:33Well, I reckon that we have Language, Multitasking and Memory
0:18:33 > 0:18:34- still left to play.- Yeah.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Which one don't you want?
0:18:36 > 0:18:37Language.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40- Why?- I don't know. I think I'll be better at Memory or Multitasking.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43Well, let's see what The Brain is going to do.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47- Hopefully, she's in her best mood. - Brain, which Zone are you going
0:18:47 > 0:18:48to choose for Naomi?
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Oh, ha-ha!
0:18:55 > 0:18:56The one you didn't want!
0:18:56 > 0:18:59- Oh, OK!- Oh, dear. How do you feel now about that?
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Eh, like I'm not getting those 18 seconds, maybe!
0:19:02 > 0:19:05You never know. It might be just up your street.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07- Yeah.- We are not talking about
0:19:07 > 0:19:10big tomes or anything like that. We are talking about key words
0:19:10 > 0:19:12- and things like that, OK? - I'll give it a try.- See how you do.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15Let's play the Language Zone.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17APPLAUSE
0:19:17 > 0:19:21So, Brain, please reveal which game Naomi will be playing first.
0:19:21 > 0:19:22- Hello, Naomi.- Hello.
0:19:22 > 0:19:26- You like running?- I do like running. - How many driving lessons
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- have you had?- Eh, over 30.- Have you left the industrial park yet?
0:19:29 > 0:19:33No, I have not. I'm not allowed on the roads yet!
0:19:33 > 0:19:34Just as well you like running.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36- Here is your first game.- Thanks.
0:19:39 > 0:19:45I will give you a word, Naomi. All you need to do is spell it backwards.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47- OK.- Have a trial run.
0:19:48 > 0:19:49DRAIN.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52N-I-AR-D.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Yes, well done. Yes.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00- You seemed very confident on that.- It might have been a fluke!
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Let's find out, shall we, as we play for real.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06Naomi, remember, once you have said a letter, you cannot change your mind.
0:20:07 > 0:20:08Your game starts now.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12VIOLIN.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16NI-L-OI-V.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23NI-L-OI-V. Yes, well done. Next one, please.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25EARRING.
0:20:25 > 0:20:31G-N-I-R-R-A-E.
0:20:34 > 0:20:38Yes, that's right. And a very difficult one there.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40So, one more, please.
0:20:40 > 0:20:41KETCHUP.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46P-U...
0:20:46 > 0:20:49H-CTEK.
0:20:51 > 0:20:52Is that correct?
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Yes, well done.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Yeah, that was a saucy one.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58LAUGHTER
0:20:58 > 0:21:03Shouldn't laugh at my own jokes, either. What... I mean, Language
0:21:03 > 0:21:06is obviously better than you thought.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08- Yeah. That was OK.- Yeah.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11- Do you want to see what happens in the next game?- Yes, please.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14- Can we have the game, then, please?- Yes, John.
0:21:14 > 0:21:15Here is the second game.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20Find the word that fits between the other two.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23Each dash represents a letter.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Here is a trial run, to help you get a feel of the game.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30Eh, couch.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35Couch, you are saying. Leather couch. Couch potato.
0:21:35 > 0:21:36Is that correct?
0:21:37 > 0:21:40No. Jacket. Not enough letters.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43- C-O-U-C-H.- Yeah.- OK, right.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46- OK. Yeah, right. - One dash for each letter...
0:21:46 > 0:21:48- Yeah.- ..in the game. - I'll look closer.- OK.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- Ready to play?- Yes.- Off we go.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55Naomi, you only have 45 seconds to answer three questions.
0:21:55 > 0:21:56Your game starts now.
0:21:59 > 0:22:00Union.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Rugby Union. Union Jack.
0:22:02 > 0:22:03Yes, correct. Next one.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Erm...
0:22:12 > 0:22:1530 seconds. You can pass, if you want to.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Date.
0:22:22 > 0:22:23Gate?
0:22:25 > 0:22:27- Right, let's see...- No. Oh, pass.
0:22:27 > 0:22:28Pass. Yep.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30- Sign.- Oh.- Next one.
0:22:32 > 0:22:33Ten seconds left.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- Three seconds. Guess.- Pass.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47- Out of time, I'm afraid.- Oh.- Card.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49- Birthday card and card trick.- Yeah.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53- Easy when you see the answer up there on the screen, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- But you did incredibly well. - Thank you.- You did.- Not too bad.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59You have left your team in a very good position.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02- Hasn't she, Brain? - I'm afraid she has.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04Naomi, you added 12 seconds in that Zone,
0:23:04 > 0:23:08which means, Cerebrum, you have finished with a grand total
0:23:08 > 0:23:10of 54 seconds
0:23:10 > 0:23:13- in your Brain Bank. - That is a good figure.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16So, nice to meet you, Naomi. Please return to the rest
0:23:16 > 0:23:19of the family team. We have finished the individual Zones.
0:23:19 > 0:23:23It is now time for our team to try to beat The Brain one last time
0:23:23 > 0:23:26and take home some serious cash in today's final.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33Cerebrum, from Wales, you have put 54 seconds into your Brain Bank
0:23:33 > 0:23:36and now is your chance to turn the time you have built up into money.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38You need to answer eight questions correctly -
0:23:38 > 0:23:41two each - within that time to beat The Brain.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44if you manage to do that within the 54 seconds,
0:23:44 > 0:23:46you will take home our jackpot of £3,000,
0:23:46 > 0:23:49but if you go over your Brain Bank time,
0:23:49 > 0:23:52you still have a chance to win a fair amount of cash. The Brain has
0:23:52 > 0:23:56given you another two minutes in which to answer, but as the time
0:23:56 > 0:23:58counts down, so does the money.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01If the time runs out completely, so does the cash.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05Olivia, as team captain, you have chosen the order of play.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08- Any particular reason for that? - I panic a bit.
0:24:08 > 0:24:12I think Naomi will be good at keeping it cool...under pressure!
0:24:12 > 0:24:14How do the rest of you feel about this positioning?
0:24:14 > 0:24:17- Joe, are you happy in the middle? - Yeah, I'd rather be in the middle.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20I think these guys cope a lot better under pressure than I would, so...
0:24:20 > 0:24:25- So, you are happy to play now?- Yes. - Right. It's time to get serious.
0:24:25 > 0:24:26Let's play the final!
0:24:26 > 0:24:27Brain, over to you.
0:24:28 > 0:24:32You will only face questions from the games you have already seen today,
0:24:32 > 0:24:34but for every game in the final,
0:24:34 > 0:24:36I will only accept your first answer.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40Cerebrum, beat me, if you can!
0:24:40 > 0:24:43So, that is the challenge. Can you beat The Brain?
0:24:43 > 0:24:45As usual, we will be starting with the player on the left.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49That is you, Olivia. I need two correct answers from you
0:24:49 > 0:24:53before I can pass to the next person and so on. Everybody understand?
0:24:53 > 0:24:54- Yep.- The very best of luck.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Let's start the final!
0:24:59 > 0:25:00Which viewpoint?
0:25:05 > 0:25:068.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09No. What is the difference?
0:25:12 > 0:25:13Five pence.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Yes. What word in the middle?
0:25:21 > 0:25:22Pass.
0:25:24 > 0:25:25What phrase?
0:25:31 > 0:25:32Pass.
0:25:35 > 0:25:36OSTRICH.
0:25:38 > 0:25:39H-C...
0:25:41 > 0:25:43..I-T...
0:25:45 > 0:25:46..S-O.
0:25:48 > 0:25:49No.
0:25:50 > 0:25:51What time is it?
0:25:53 > 0:25:5520 to...
0:25:55 > 0:25:56nine.
0:25:56 > 0:25:57Yes. Paul.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02White,
0:26:02 > 0:26:04green, yellow,
0:26:04 > 0:26:06red, blue, black.
0:26:06 > 0:26:07Yes!
0:26:14 > 0:26:16- 4?- No.
0:26:19 > 0:26:2120 past five.
0:26:21 > 0:26:22Yes.
0:26:22 > 0:26:23Joe.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26Role reversal.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29Correct.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34- Love.- Yes.
0:26:34 > 0:26:35Naomi.
0:26:42 > 0:26:433.
0:26:44 > 0:26:45Yes.
0:26:46 > 0:26:473.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Stop the clock!
0:26:49 > 0:26:51APPLAUSE
0:26:51 > 0:26:56Well done! Eight correct answers! One minute and four seconds left.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57You did it in very good time.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59Congratulations.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01You have won £1,600!
0:27:01 > 0:27:02THEY CHEER
0:27:02 > 0:27:06So, congratulations, again. That is a very good score. Pleased, Olivia?
0:27:06 > 0:27:09- Yeah, I am pleased, yeah! - Pleased with your team?
0:27:09 > 0:27:10Yeah! Definitely!
0:27:10 > 0:27:12You did better than me!
0:27:12 > 0:27:15You got off to a bit of a slow start, but there is a bit of money
0:27:15 > 0:27:18in the kitty now. Thank you very much for playing.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20Brain, what do you think of their performance?
0:27:20 > 0:27:23Well, they have taken half the finances out of my Brain Bank,
0:27:23 > 0:27:27so I'm very sad indeed. I thought you liked me, Cerebrum!
0:27:27 > 0:27:29LAUGHTER
0:27:29 > 0:27:32Well, thank you all at home for watching today. Hope you enjoyed
0:27:32 > 0:27:35playing along, but for now, it's goodbye from Cerebrum...
0:27:35 > 0:27:36How about a Welsh goodbye?
0:27:36 > 0:27:38ALL: Da bo chi!
0:27:38 > 0:27:39- Goodbye from The Brain.- Goodbye.
0:27:39 > 0:27:46And goodbye from me. See you again, next time we play beat The Brain.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49Before you go, it's time to find out how you did with our two
0:27:49 > 0:27:53Play at Home questions. Here is a reminder...and the answers.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57What is the phrase or saying?
0:28:00 > 0:28:02The answer is...
0:28:07 > 0:28:10A clock is reflected in a mirror. What is the real time?
0:28:11 > 0:28:12The answer is...
0:28:15 > 0:28:19If you got those right, well done. If you didn't, you can always improve
0:28:19 > 0:28:23your skills by watching more Beat The Brain!
