Episode 24 Debatable

APPLAUSE

Hello and welcome to Debatable, the quiz show where talk is cheap,

but celebrity chat can win a contestant money.

Today, one player must answer a series of tricky questions to

try and bag our jackpot of ?3,000.

But they are not on their own, they'll also have

a panel of celebrity brainboxes debating their way to the answer.

Will they help or will they hinder? Well, that's debatable.

So, let's meet them.

On today's show, we have former England cricketer Phil Tufnell.

We have broadcaster Jennie Bond.

And TV presenter Angelica Bell.

APPLAUSE

So, Jennie, you're in the middle of our panel.

Are you going to be driving this

or are you going to be harnessing the knowledge?

I am going to be taking a view, when we are divided, which we may be.

And I'm hoping very much that they both know

a very great deal more than I do. OK.

Phil Tufnell is known as "the sieve",

he knows everything and forgets it immediately.

Listen, I've got a great team.

I'm confident, we can't go wrong tonight. What a team.

We've got all the bases covered.

The worst thing about this

is I've actually been on Question Of Sport

with Phil and he's actually said that at the start of the

show, and we lose as well. I know.

But every time he says it, I believe you, I believe you every time.

Come on, confidence. Come on.

We also have Angelica, who is a politics graduate.

I know, shhh! Don't tell anyone. No, no, we can't keep this quiet, this is the stuff that we need.

I know, yeah, I have a degree in politics. And I like history.

I just like strange, weird facts.

I remember one year I asked for a periodic table to be bought for

me so I could just flick through it at night.

I just like to know weird things.

So hopefully all that sort of weird knowledge will be useful today.

This is the moment that all of that

has been building to. Yes. It really is.

OK, that is our panel,

let's see who's going to be playing with them today.

It is Tony Doyle from Manchester.

APPLAUSE

Hiya, Tony. Paddy. Nice to meet you. How's things? Good, thank you.

Tell us a little bit about yourself. Good firm handshake there.

My name's Tony, from Manchester, now living in Salford.

I'm in the fire service, have been for 22 years.

And I now live in Salford with my partner, Jo, for the last 16 years.

Tell us what you do in your spare time. I like my cricket.

Well, like it, I love my cricket.

I play cricket for Didsbury Cricket Club in Manchester,

and I've been their captain for ten years for the third team.

I'm also a singer in a punk band,

some friends of ours in a band, called Chaos.

And we get together and play and we have some good fun.

So, are you glad to see Tuffers on the panel? Absolutely, yeah.

He's a legend, isn't he, of the game? Big fan of his. All right.

What do we make of the panel today?

Are you happy with the players we've assembled on your behalf, Tony?

I think they're a fantastic looking team. And Phil. And...

LAUGHTER

It's all down to you, darling.

There's a lot of intelligence across the team,

they're very well spread out as well.

All right, well, look, let's see how they do,

let's get this Debatable show on the road,

as we play round one, Tony.

This round is multiple choice.

Each question has four possible answers,

only one of those is correct.

Helping you, it says here, is our panel.

Will you go with what they say, or will you go your own way?

It's entirely up to you, Tony.

There are three questions in this round.

200 quid for each correct answer,

so let's see if we can get some cash on the board.

Here we go.

Jennie has her head in her hands.

OK. I'm glad Jennie's on the panel for a start,

she's almost royalty herself. She is almost royalty herself.

So I'd love to know what the panel have to say about it.

So, if you had to guess, what's your gut reaction to start with?

I'd go with James I.

Let's see if our panel can bring their regal knowledge to this,

the debate starts now. Jennie. Oh, thanks.

I do modern monarchy, I don't do this, I don't do this.

But we have to have a stab at it. Is there a rhyme or something.

There is. I've actually got a ruler at home that

has the rhyme and the list of British monarchs.

Can you remember the rhyme? No. No, me neither.

Mary ruled for a very short time. Yes. Elizabeth was later.

1500s, yeah?

There's not a George...

Well, I think George is more 1700s, something like that.

Which ones can we discount? Which ones can we discount?

I think George we can discount. What about Elizabeth I?

And Elizabeth, I think, we can discount.

I think it's between Mary and James. I don't know.

Do you know anything about James? No, not really.

I'm veering towards James. The original James? Then Mary.

Then Elizabeth, then George. I'm thinking Mary, James.

Or Mary and James. One of those two.

So we all think James might be in there in the mix,

and Tony thinks it's James. James I sounds closer to us.

Mary sounds a long way away. Mary I. Yeah, Mary I.

Oh, we've got to reach a decision.

The Mary thing is just annoying me a bit, the Mary thing's...

Mary's annoying you? In that you think it might be Mary?

I don't know. OK, the panel... Go with what you think.

Don't... No, go with what you think.

The panel is going to go for James I,

with absolutely no confidence whatsoever.

Anything up there to make you change your mind?

I'm between James and Mary.

I've just got something about James I being maybe from Scotland,

maybe, I don't know.

I'm going to stick, go with the panel,

stick with my first answer, which was James I.

OK, it was your first thought. Our panel also suggested James.

Is James I correct, for ?200?

It was Mary. Oh, no!

Mary ruled from 1553 to 1558.

Elizabeth ruled after her, from 1558 to 1603.

James was then after Elizabeth from 1603 to 1625.

And George I ruled from 1714 to 1727.

Mary I was the first Queen of England to rule England in

her own right.

And there she is.

Unfortunately, Tony, there's nothing in the prize pot for that.

Loads of time to get the cash up, though,

here comes your next question.

Just trying to think maybe low cloud, maybe

suggesting smoke rather than smoke itself. All plausible.

Reykjavik's probably further north.

I'll definitely listen to the panel on this one.

I've got a feeling, maybe, for Reykjavik.

Let's see if our panel can sort this out. Your debate starts now.

Well, when the question came up,

I had a sort of inkling that I know this answer.

From some bizarre memory.

And I do love Scandinavia, I've been to it a few times.

Now, I don't know why I think the answer is this,

but I think it is Reykjavik.

Well, there's a lot of geysers in Reykjavik.

That could be the smoke. That could be the smoke.

There's a lot of those sulphur, sulphur things burning up,

isn't there? Yeah. But I was thinking "hagan".

Copenhagen. Does hagan mean Bay?

Hagan? Copenhagen. Is Reykjavik on the coast?

It's only little, Iceland. I think everything is on the coast.

Yes, actually, I think you're right. Because it is too cold.

It is too cold inland. Helsinki. What goes on there? Smoked fish.

They smoke a lot of fish. Herrings, isn't it? That is a good thought.

What do you think? For some reason, Reykjavik stood out as well.

For obscure reasons. I think it's Reykjavik. She's confident.

I like "smoky", as in meaning the old geysers and the sulphury stuff.

So that's two reasons. Yeah. She's confident, he's got a reason.

The panel is going to go with Reykjavik. Oh, man!

You've heard what our panel say, but what do you think?

Again, well reasoned out, I was impressed by Angelica,

she sort of seemed to know it straightaway.

I'm still going to go for the educated guess of

Angelica with Reykjavik.

So, you're going with the panel.

ANGELICA: Please let it be Reykjavik.

For ?200, is Reykjavik the correct answer?

Yes! It is the correct answer.

APPLAUSE

Nice work. Very nice work.

The Vikings named the place Reykjavik,

meaning "smoky bay", after the steam rising from the hot springs.

Tuffers, well played.

Ironically, it is now known as the "smokeless city" due to its

full adoption of geothermal energy.

Well played, Tony, we're up and running, ?200 in the prize pot.

APPLAUSE

OK, here comes your third question in round one.

When I saw the question, I knew it was a funny name,

so I wasn't expecting a traditional Christian name to come up.

I wasn't expecting those names either, to be fair.

Obviously you've got The Muppets link there, but for some reason I'm

drawn to Fozzie.

For no real reason.

I knew it was a strange name and I just can't imagine someone

calling their daughter Kermit.

OK, first thoughts, Fozzie.

Let's get the first thoughts and the final thoughts of the panel.

Your debate starts now.

Fozzie does... Would that be shortened?

That's her actual name, is it?

It's not a shortening for a name, it's her actual name?

Rowlf sounds to me as if it could be a surname from, in her family.

And therefore used as a middle name. But...

Who's going to call their kid Edith Gonzo Roosevelt?

Fozzie sounds the most feminine out of those. I think Fozzie might be...

Might mean something else?

Yeah, might be shortened for, or a pet name or something. Yeah.

Yes. It's not going to be Kermit, is it?

Kermit was only invented when the frog turned up.

When The Muppets turned up, there wasn't a Kermit.

So it's not Kermit. We're sure it's not Kermit.

I'm torn between Fozzie and Rowlf.

Yeah, they're more sensible names, aren't they?

They are sort of more family names that could be...

..passed down from generation to generation.

No Gonzo, we don't fancy Gonzo. I don't fancy Gonzo. Can't be Gonzo.

So your first thought was? Fozzie. OK.

Well, yeah, I mean, just because it's a lady, it sounds...

Fozzie or Rowlf, for me.

I'll go with Angelica, Fozzie.

The panel have decided, for what it's worth,

that it was Lady Edith Fozzie Roosevelt.

What do you think?

When I first saw the question, I knew it was a funny name.

If it had been Rowlf, I wouldn't have classed that as being a funny

name. So I'm actually ruling out Rowlf.

I think any of the three, it could be,

I remember it being quite a silly name.

But I did think Fozzie.

But I wouldn't be surprised if it comes up as Kermit or Gonzo.

But... So I'm going to go with my first instinct, which was Fozzie.

Let's lock it in. Your first instinct was Fozzie.

The panel think Fozzie, for ?200.

The correct answer is...

Kermit?! No! Kermit?! Kermit.

No way! Oh, for goodness' sake.

Kermit! I know, Tuffers. Why?

Her middle name was the surname of her paternal great uncle,

Robert Kermit. Tony, I'm afraid nothing for that.

It means at the end of round one, you're on ?200.

APPLAUSE

How do we think our panel are doing so far, Tony?

Well, they're struggling a bit, Paddy, aren't they?

I was just about to say, yeah. LAUGHTER

If there was one that would stand out for you, because you are going

to have to choose one to play the final debate at the end of the show, who's standing out at the moment?

I think Angelica at this moment in time, I think she's...

Her instincts seem to be good apart from her Fozzie instincts.

OK, well, let's see how our panel cope with pictures.

It is time for round two.

Tony, round two is our picture round.

All you have to do is to put three pictures in the correct order.

There are three questions in this round,

each correct answer is worth ?300. Plenty of cash up there.

Let's see if we can get some of it in your prize pot. Here we go.

My initial answer, I'd be looking at,

I think Stone Age was first.

Then I think it was the Bronze Age.

Or is it iron?

Bronze is a by-product, is it, of iron?

Or the other way round.

I think stone's first.

Then it's a mix-up after that.

I'll definitely see what the panel have to say.

OK, so you're pretty sure that Stone Age is first.

Let's see if the panel can sort the rest out for you.

Your debate starts now.

Stone first. I'm definitely with Tony on that. Yeah.

And then I think, I vaguely remember that Bronze came before Iron.

Because Bronze, they made their swords out of bronze.

And they were soft, they weren't very good.

And so then they made their swords out of iron,

which were then a harder metal.

Because it was copper, wasn't it? Copper... Is it?

So they had floppy swords? They had floppy swords.

They had floppy swords, but they were good swords.

For cutting and things. Better than stone. Better than flint.

I might be totally wrong.

Well, I think we're united on Stone being a long, long time ago.

So that's this end. Neolithic or something. So that's that end.

OK. And then it's... Any ideas?

I think I'm leaning towards what you're saying as well.

My first instinct was Stone Age, then the Bronze Age,

then the Iron Age.

I think we find a lot more fossils or whatever, bits and pieces,

implements from the Iron Age, don't we? Yeah. Iron Age. Yes...

It's a tougher metal. Does that come...

So then why would they then...?

Why would you have the Iron Age and then have the Bronze Age

after it, if it wasn't as tough? If you're right about your swords.

If I'm right about my floppy swords, it's got to be Bronze Age second.

Very logical. Do you reckon? OK.

The panel have decided, first it was the Stone Age,

then it was the Bronze Age, and then it was the Iron Age.

So, Phil has gone for the classic floppy sword

argument here, Tony.

Has that managed to convince you? Bizarrely, I think it has. Really?

I was looking at that kind of order.

Stone, then the Bronze, then the Iron.

I definitely agree with the panel on this.

So, let's put them in order, starting with the earliest. Stone.

Then we went Bronze, and then Iron.

OK, it's locked in.

You're agreed with the panel.

Is this the correct order, for ?300?

It is! APPLAUSE

Well done! Yay! The floppy sword!

Tuffers knows his floppy swords. He does.

The Stone Age, the Bronze Age and the Iron Ages together

form the three-age system.

This system is used to classify prehistoric artefacts

according to the successive stages of technological development.

Very well done, very well worked out, Tony.

That's ?300 added to your prize pot, giving you a total, now, of ?500.

APPLAUSE

INAUDIBLE

So, you're on 500. Another 300 up for grabs with our next question.

Tony, here it comes.

A tricky one this, really.

There was a period where we didn't

qualify for a couple of tournaments.

Lineker, I think, played in a couple.

Rooney came to the European Championships 2004.

I think, possibly, Wayne's got the most.

Gary Lineker's got the fewest.

Followed by Alan Shearer

and Wayne Rooney.

But I'd love to know

what the panel think.

Jennie's nodding. Yeah.

Panel, your debate starts now.

I thought Shearer might be the least.

See, with the opportunities they had to play... And...

It's the opportunities. Now, how many's Wayne Rooney been in?

He started quite young. He started so young.

Around 17, 18, or something.

Yeah, 17 or 18, he started. Because I think...

I think Rooney might be in the middle, the middle.

Surely Lineker was in loads, wasn't he?

No, because we didn't qualify for too many around that time.

I think Gary Lineker hasn't played in as many as we think.

Because we just didn't get there.

Cos we just get there, and that would've been his time.

Then he had that great run when he scored all the goals...

Take that. What, we didn't even qualify?

Shearer, in a World Cup, might not have played in many. I think he

has done the least. That's what I think.

Can you remember Alan Shearer

playing in a World Cup?

All I remember is him scoring loads for Newcastle.

I can remember him playing in the Euros. So maybe he didn't.

When he was paying for Southampton, Blackburn...

I think Shearer, Gary Lineker, and Wayne Rooney

because I don't remember Shearer.

I can't see him playing in that many World Cups,

whereas, obviously, I've seen... He's more prominent.

But then, like you said... Weren't so many. There weren't so many.

What are you leaning towards? I think...

I think you might be right. Has Alan Shearer played in a World Cup?

Yeah, I just don't remember watching the World Cup seeing... But then...

I would've thought he had, personally.

OK, we've got to reach a decision. Yeah.

I think that's not a bad shout,

but then with a view that it could be that way or that way

if you know a little bit more than us.

Do you want to change it? No, I'm going to keep that one there.

OK. Sweet. Least, most. All right.

For what it's worth, the panel has decided

that it is Alan Shearer, Gary Lineker, and Wayne Rooney.

So, Tony, has any of that helped?

Actually still think it's

Gary Lineker who's had the fewest.

It's a tough one now between Rooney and Shearer

as the most, if I'm honest.

I'm going to change what I said.

And disagree with the panel, sorry.

I'm going to go with the fewest being Lineker,

then Rooney, then Shearer.

OK. You're saying Lineker, Rooney, Shearer.

Is that the correct order for ?300?

It's the wrong order, Tony.

Let's have a look at the right order.

Rooney's played the...

The panel were right. Oh!

Alan Shearer has the fewest... Yes!

..then Gary Lineker, then Wayne Rooney.

I couldn't be more wrong, could I?

Alan Shearer only played in one World Cup, in France 1998.

Gary Lineker won the Golden Boot at the World Cup in Mexico in '86.

He then played in Italia '90.

Wayne Rooney, three World Cups - 2006, 2010 and 2014.

The highest number of appearances in the World Cup

are five by Antonio Carbajal of Mexico

and Lothar Matthaus. Yeah.

Matthaus has been in five World Cups.

Unfortunately, Tony, you didn't get that one,

but you still have ?500 in the price pot.

APPLAUSE

OK, Tony, let's have a look at your third picture question.

Here it comes.

Just trying to do it as history.

I know Tower Bridge is beside the Tower of London.

But that bridge isn't quite as old

as I think people think it is.

But I'd say Admiralty Arch first,

Nelson's Column, Tower Bridge.

But I'll be interested to know

what the local panel have to say.

Let's see what our panel make of this.

Your debate starts now.

Tower Bridge is mechanical. Yeah.

But I think that was completed...

And the only reason I know this is because

I just did that yachting challenge with The One Show.

That's right. And we came into London,

and they had to raise the bridge, they stopped all the traffic.

And everyone was going, "It's amazing, it's amazing."

So I looked it up - Tower Bridge, as you do - and I think

that was completed...

18...90 something.

Well, when was the Armada? When was Nelson's do?

This, I think, was... A long time before that.

I think that was before that. Yeah.

I think let's put Tower Bridge with me.

I think Nelson's Column... So that's there.

You don't think Nelson's column would come first?

No, I'm first, I think. Oh, OK. The earliest is over there.

Admiralty Arch Is obviously...

Somewhere I think this was to do with Victoria. I think.

I don't know why, but I think it was. So 18...

Well, she died in 19.. What, 1901?

So 18, maybe, 60...?

No, I think it might be a memorial to her, is what I'm thinking.

So it might be post 1900.

Well, I think that belongs there, definitely. The column, yeah. Yeah.

So it's a question of Admiralty Arch or Tower Bridge.

I think this was completed in

the 1890s. Right. I think. I think this was completed

in the 1900s.

Cos it's to do... That's 19...

Hundreds. 1890s is...

No, I mean literally 1900s. Oh, right.

19 something-or-other.

That's at the beginning of The Mall, isn't it?

To get you down to Buck Pal. I think this is the most modern.

That there? You think that's the most modern?

Admiralty, I think, yeah. Yeah, OK.

Are you happy with this? Yeah. All right.

For better or worse,

our answer is that earliest was Nelson's Column,

followed by Tower Bridge, followed by Admiralty Arch.

Good luck. PANEL CHUCKLE

So you had Admiralty Arch as the first.

Yeah, I just thought it's a very old...

The Admiralty itself is very old.

I not sure when the arch was put in,

and that might be something that Jennie was saying,

as a tribute to Victoria.

So that kind of threw me a little bit.

I'm tempted to...swap

the Tower Bridge and the Admiralty round.

So you're going for, starting with the earliest, you want to go with...

Nelson's Column,

then the Admiralty,

and then Tower Bridge.

Let's lock it in.

For ?300, is that the correct answer, Tony?

Oh, man! It's the wrong order.

Let's see the correct order.

Oh, sorry. It was Nelson's Column... We got it right. We did.

..Tower Bridge and Admiralty Arch.

The panel were right. Sorry, Jennie.

Let's have a look at it here.

Nelson's Column, completed in 1843,

Tower Bridge, 1894,

Admiralty Arch, 1912.

Jennie, you were right, the 1900s.

So, Angelica, you were right about 1894 with Tower Bridge.

Nelson's Column was to commemorate

the Battle of Trafalgar, which was 1805,

where Britain fought the Spanish and the French.

But it wasn't completed until 1843.

And Admiralty Arch, 1912.

Jennie, you were right, the 1900s. Ah, right.

The four bronze lions that sit at the base of Nelson's Column

sit in the same position, but they are actually not identical.

Tower Bridge took eight years to build.

The Admiralty Arch was commissioned by Edward VII

in memory of his mother Queen Victoria,

but he didn't live to see its completion in 1912.

Tony, unfortunately, you didn't manage to bank anything there,

but that means the total amount banked

at the end of that round is ?500.

APPLAUSE

So, Tony, is the panel still proving useful?

Yeah, I should've listened to them a little bit more, Paddy, yeah.

They were bang on there again. They were bang on in that round.

Three out of three in that round for the panel.

There's still loads of cash, Tony.

?1,500 up for grabs as we play round three.

OK, Tony, in this round, you'll face questions that contain

three statements about a person, a place or a thing,

but only one of those statements is true.

You must decide which one.

Three questions in the round. There's loads of cash up there.

?500 for each correct answer.

So, let's see if we can get it all added to the prize pot.

Best of luck. Here we go.

So maybe it is the chemical element.

A tricky one.

Interested on the panel, on the periodic table.

THEY CHUCKLE Hmm...

OK, you're thinking it may be the chemical element.

Panel, your debate starts now.

The Theory Of Everything is based on Stephen Hawking.

Stephen Hawking, yeah. Stephen Hawking.

I don't recall a chemical element being named after him.

An "ein"? A "stein"?! A "bert"? Yeah. An "al"?

I can recall his face being on...money.

So, we're all veering towards the banknote, aren't we? Yeah.

Shall we go with the banknote?

Yeah. Hold on. Well, have you seen him on a bank...?

You've been to America. Yeah, I'm sure...

Isn't the fella...? No, isn't George Washington on the banknote?

He certainly WAS.

I mean, they're changing it all the time, aren't they?

If it was down to me, I think I'd say banknote.

You'd say banknote. Yeah, I think so. And you don't know.

I think banknote, just because I can't think of an element.

Yeah, I've never heard of that. But... All right, well...

OK. JENNIE SIGHS

OK, Tony, the panel thinks that Albert Einstein

currently features on a US banknote.

The panel have decided that Albert Einstein

features on a US banknote.

Do slip someone an Albert, or do you smell an Albert?

That's essentially what it's boiled down to, Tony.

I think, a chemical element, they're quite well established, aren't they?

They've been around for a long time.

I think we would've heard if of it if they'd named one after him.

I think we'll go for his face currently features on a US banknote.

Go with the panel.

100% record in the last round, the panel.

Let's see if they can keep their winning streak going.

For ?500, the correct statement.

What is true about Albert Einstein?

Oh, no! Oh, no!

Chemical element is named after him. Sorry. Sorry.

In 1952 a new chemical element was discovered

after the fallout of thermonuclear explosions.

I didn't know that. It was named Einsteinium.

Einsteinium! It's catchy.

It is catchy. Einsteinium.

After his pioneering work in physics made such an experiment possible.

Wow.

The Theory Of Everything tells the story Stephen Hawking,

not Albert Einstein.

You were right about that, guys.

Although we was a German American citizen,

his face has not made it onto a US banknote. Sorry.

So no money, but there's still some cash up there.

Let's see if we can find it. Here is your next question.

You a fan of Adele, Tony? Yeah. She's a wonderful, wonderful singer.

I don't think she's had more number ones than the Spice Girls.

I think they were quite prolific in their time.

So I'm veering towards B and C.

I don't think she's had more number ones than the Spice Girls. OK.

You don't think she's had more number ones than the Spice Girls.

You're not sure about the other two.

Panel, let's see if we can sort it out. The debate starts now.

I agree with Tony. I don't think she's had more than the Spice Girls.

They were mahoosive. She is sparse with the records she puts out,

isn't she? Number of singles? Yeah. She's very careful with that.

And the UK's best selling in 2015,

that would have been Skyfall, would it?

I thought it would have been Hello.

I thought Hello came out in 2015. Didn't it? At the end of?

What are we in now? 2016. I'm pretty...

Was it the end of 2015?

Pretty sure I remember seeing it the very end of last year.

Sort of December or something.

Then how could it have been the biggest selling single

of 2015 when it came out at the end of the year? Oh!

Unless it just exploded. But it did explode.

I mean, gosh, you heard it...

I was travelling earlier this year around Australia

and South East Asia and wherever you went you heard Hello.

So were they playing it off YouTube?

Is a billion... I mean, I know a billion's a lot but, I mean,

is that obtainable on YouTube?

Hits. I suppose it's worldwide. It could be.

Could be. We think it's one of the last two anyway. Yeah.

I have an idea I saw a news story saying although it had been released

late in the year, it shot to being the biggest selling single of 2015.

That's what my head is telling me. Do you know your YouTube?

I mean, billion is plausible.

Cos, I mean, you have to think about it - people watch things over

and over again. It's not a separate one billion people.

People, you know... If you love your music, you will watch

something over and over again. And there are billions of people.

If it's had a billion hits on YouTube, it must have been the

UK's biggest selling...

My first instinct was, yeah, the biggest selling single.

But we have the million dollar question,

was it actually released in 2015? I don't know.

I think I'd go with B, the biggest selling single. I agree with C.

You're going with YouTube. I'm going to say B.

The panel has decided that Adele

released the UK's biggest selling single of last year, 2015.

So, Tony, Angellica thinks it's plausible that Hello

has been viewed over one billion times on YouTube, however,

overruled by Jennie and Phil,

who think that Adele released the biggest selling single of 2015.

Any logic in there to help you?

I think Hello was this year and I think it might have been

for Skyfall, for the film.

The YouTube one's jumping out at me as well.

It's terrible. I'm going to go with my first thought and my instinct, B.

You're sticking with your first instinct. Yeah.

You're going with the panel.

For ?500, the correct answer is...

Oh, no! It was C. You were right again.

The video for the single Hello has been viewed over one billion

times on YouTube and rising.

Angellica was right.

Adele's Hello took only 87 days to reach one billion views.

There she is. The Spice Girls have had nine UK number ones.

Adele has only had two.

She had the sixth biggest selling single of 2015 with Hello.

The biggest selling single of 2015 was Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars

and Mark Ronson.

Just so you know, Tony, Skyfall was released in 2012. Crikey.

Unfortunately nothing for that.

It means that your prize pot at the moment stays at ?500.

APPLAUSE

Let's see if we can double that up to ?1,000 for our Final Debate.

Here comes your last question.

I think she did write under a pseudonym.

I don't think it was that name.

Might have been Emily Bronte that did Wuthering Heights, I think.

But I am aware she did have two sisters who were also

published authors. So my hankering on this one would be C.

Angelica is nodding. Panel, your debate starts now.

Emily Bronte did write Wuthering Heights.

That was her only novel.

Right. She did have two sisters. The Bronte sisters...

Charlotte, Emily and Dorothy?

No, no. No, she wasn't Dorothy.

Leaning is that all the sisters were published. Were published.

So Wuthering Heights definitely wrong. Ellis Bell. No idea.

Never heard of. We'd have heard of them, surely.

Yeah, that would have known. Yeah. Yeah, would ring a bell. Hee-hee!

Ha-ha! So I think you're bang on, actually.

I think two sisters who were also published authors must be right.

You're still laughing at your own joke? I'm not. I'm not.

Bronte sisters, very famous, isn't it? The Bronte sisters? Yes.

Who was the third one then? No idea. They were that famous.

THEY LAUGH Well, anyway.

I think we're agreed, are we? Yes? Yeah.

Tony, the panel says that Charlotte Bronte had two sisters

who were also published authors.

So, Tony, little bit of knowledge there from Angellica

has led the panel to C.

Also your first thought. It was, yeah.

And kind of worded out by the guys there, really.

I think she did have two sisters. I can't think of the third.

I think it might be Anne, but I'm not 100% sure.

I think she definitely had two sisters who were published authors.

That's why I'd go with my answer, C.

OK. Going along with the panel.

For ?500, to double your prize pot to ?1,000.

The correct statement about Charlotte Bronte is...

APPLAUSE Yes! Yes!

Well done, well done. Well done, well done.

She had two sisters, Emily and Anne.

Good knowledge, Tony.

Both were published authors. Oh, good.

She wrote under the pseudonym of Currer Bell.

Ellis was Emily Bronte's pseudonym.

Charlotte wrote Jane Eyre, Villette and Shirley.

Emily wrote Wuthering Heights.

Well done, Tony. We're back on track.

At the end of the third round, you've managed to put

?1,000 in your prize pot. APPLAUSE

And that is the amount you'll be playing for in today's Final Debate.

OK, Tony, ?1,000. If you manage to get that today, what are your plans?

I've booked a holiday in Crete and I've not really thought about

how I'm going to pay for it yet, so that'll go some way towards it. OK.

Fingers crossed.

There's just one question that stands between you and the cash today, and that is the Final Debate.

In the Final Debate, you will face one question.

That question will have six possible answers, but only three of those are correct.

In order to win the money today, I need all three correct answers.

As before, you're not playing alone.

You're going to choose one of these fine human beings to help you

with your Final Debate question.

You and your celeb will have 45 seconds on the clock

to debate the question, then I'm going to need the answers from you.

So, based on the performance of our panel today,

as they straighten themselves up and look presentable,

who would you like to join you, Tony, in today's debate - Angellica, Jennie or Phil?

I think they've all been really good, to be honest with you.

I think I've let them down more than anything else.

I think... Consistently throughout, I think, Angellica's been

a bit of a font of knowledge. Sorry, Angellica, I'm going to choose you.

Angellica, would you please join us for the Final Debate?

So, Angellica, Tony has chosen you for the Final Debate.

This is what happens when you know stuff. I know.

But I'm feeling the pressure of Tony's Crete holiday

on my shoulders right now.

But hopefully some of that knowledge will be useful and we work together.

Absolutely. Yeah? Yeah. I want to do well.

OK, guys, best of luck.

Because it's the Final Debate, Tony, we're going to give you two options.

Have a look and choose from these.

Two categories I quite like.

I'm going to go with History.

ANGELLICA GULPS

If you'd just seen the look on Angellica's face!

How are you with History, Angellica? I'm OK. I'm OK.

OK, you've chosen History. Let's lock it in.

For ?1,000, here is today's Final Debate question.

Tony and Angellica, for the final time, your 45 seconds start now.

OK, I'm thinking Julius Caesar, Augustus, possibly.

OK. Nero. He fiddled when Rome was on fire. I thought of Nero.

Commodus. Wasn't he...?

Did he...? Just thinking from the Gladiator film.

Yeah, exactly. That's what... Did he become emperor?

Let's rule out Alexander the Great. Oh, yes.

Rule out Alexander the Great. Rule out Cyrus. I don't know Cyrus.

I don't know Cyrus.

So, Julius Caesar, Nero came into my head...

Yeah. And you're thinking Augustus.

Only because Commodus was the son of an emperor. That's right. Yes.

And I don't know whether he then became the emperor.

The three that came to my head straightaway -

Augustus, Julius Caesar, Nero. But then was like, "Oh, Commodus."

But if you think those are the three that you want to do... Blaming me.

No, I'm saying that I agree. No, I get...

Commodus, I get where you're coming from with that. Yeah.

But I think he was the son. OK, guys. Time is up.

Tony, I need three answers. I'm going to go for

Augustus, Julius Caesar, and Nero.

Augustus, Julius Caesar and Nero. They are locked in.

If they are the three Roman emperors, it's ?1,000.

If one of them is wrong, Tony, you do know you'll leave with nothing.

So here we go. Best of luck. We're looking for three Roman emperors.

First up, is Augustus a Roman emperor?

Yes! APPLAUSE

Augustus was the first Roman emperor.

So we're up and running. Here we go.

Was Nero a Roman emperor?

Oh! APPLAUSE

He was! Well played. He was the fifth Roman emperor.

So it's all down to this one, Tony.

For ?1,000, was Julius Caesar a Roman emperor?

No! He wasn't.

Julius Caesar was a general and a statesman.

He never was an emperor. Who was it?

No! Gosh. The correct answer is...

It was Commodus.

You mentioned Commodus, Tony.

Commodus was a Roman emperor.

He ruled from 177-180CE with his father

and alone from 180-192CE.

There we go, Tony. You played the game so well.

Give it up one more time for Tony. APPLAUSE

Thank you so much.

Hard luck, fella. That is it for Debatable.

There's just enough time for me to thank our fantastic panel -

Angellica Bell, Phil Tufnell and Jennie Bond.

APPLAUSE

I do hope you've enjoyed watching.

We will see you next time for more heated debates.

For now, it's goodbye from me.
