Episode 13 Impossible

I'm Rick Edwards, and this is Impossible.

Welcome to Impossible, the quiz where the questions aren't impossible,

but some of the answers are.

They're not just wrong, they couldn't possibly be right.

We have 24 players all settled in and ready to go.

-Hello, players! ALL:

-Hello, Rick!

I like these guys!

Every day, one of them will have the chance to unlock this...

-PLAYERS:

-Ooh!

Our overly generous exclamation mark filled with 10,000 pound coins.

At the end of each show,

one of our players will face the £10,000 question.

Here it is.

-PLAYERS:

-Ooh!

Get this right, and all of that cash will come flooding out.

Yesterday, Josh left us with £1,000 and our new player today is Theresa.

-APPLAUSE

-Hello!

Who's your...? Who's your mate, there?

Erm, it's from my daughter.

Hello, Emily. It actually says, "Mum, you're a star."

-So...

-Oh, it's cute, isn't it?

-I know!

-Has the bear got a name yet?

Well, we could call her Richardina.

I don't mind Richardina, I think it's an incredibly pretty name.

-All right.

-Richardina, the bear?

-She is there.

-Good stuff, lovely to meet Richardina.

-Thank you.

-What do you do, Theresa?

Well, me and Emily are kind of roller-coaster fanatics.

-Oh, really?

-The taller, the faster, the scarier, the better.

And if you were to win the £10,000,

would you spend it on roller-coasters?

Probably. There's quite a few roller-coaster parks in the world,

and I think we kind of need to do all of them.

Whatever you like, Theresa!

Oh, it would be wonderful.

-Great to have you on the show, best of luck.

-Thank you, thank you very much.

-Vicky?

-Yes.

-What do you do, Vicky?

-Well, I play computer games.

-What kind of computer games do you play?

-Hidden-object computer games.

But I'm addicted to one particular one,

which you have to buy energy and rubies to get further.

-Right.

-And I'm in such debt over that.

-LAUGHTER

You're having a terrible time in the virtual world, Vicky!

Yes, I know, so I need the £10,000!

Yeah, so you can get yourself out of this horrible ruby debt, or whatever it is!

LAUGHTER

Well, best of luck, great to have you on the show, Vicky.

-Thank you.

-Kurtis.

-Hello.

What you do in your spare time?

Erm, I make music with friends, so we built a studio in his back garden.

-That's cool.

-Yeah.

-What kind of music?

Sort of like hip-hop, pop, R&B, rap - bit of everything, really.

What do you do, are you producing, are you singing...?

No, I'm a sort of, like, singer, rapper sort of thing.

I mean, obviously, at some point, Kurtis...

-Yeah.

-..I'd like you to be down here rapping at me!

-Yeah. All right!

-Good! Good, OK, that's settled.

Just to remind you, this is Ian,

our British Sign Language interpreter, who is working with Ciaran.

-Shall we crack on? ALL:

-Yes!

Here's your first question.

The good news for 23 of you is

you've all gone with A - Silvio Berlusconi.

Is that the right answer?

Yes, it is. So, a point to all of you.

Eve...

Politics is not my strong point!

-Is football?

-No.

-LAUGHTER

The impossible answer...

Francesco Totti is a footballer, not an Italian Prime Minister.

-Which means we'll have to see you tomorrow.

-Bye.

Berlusconi's bunga bunga parties were notorious -

and I will leave it at that.

LAUGHTER

Question number two.

All answers represented.

Franklyn - you've gone for The Guardian.

It's quite silly, because I used to print papers out in my old

second job. I used to put out The Guardian every day.

But I used to put out The Independent every day, so...

But I didn't really pay attention, I just put it out for customers to

-buy, so...

-Did you put The Observer out every day?

-I don't know.

-Interesting.

Interesting. Theresa and Richardina...

-Mmm.

-You went with B - the Observer.

That's a Sunday paper, isn't it? Sunday only.

The impossible answer is...

B - The Observer.

Exactly as you said, Theresa, it's a Sunday paper, not a daily newspaper.

Annie and Theresa, we'll have to say goodbye.

-We'll see you both tomorrow.

-Bye-bye.

And let's see where the points are going.

C - The independent.

Point to all of you. Question number three.

All answers out there. The right answer...

Is B - Cerne Abbas.

So, a point for all of you who went for B.

Tracey, can you picture the man, the old naked man?

I can see it in my mind, yeah, carved into the...

Oh, me, too, Tracy! LAUGHTER

-But, yeah, carved...

-Absolutely lovely!

Carved into the hillside!

But I have absolutely no idea what they call the village,

so it was just a guess for me, I'm afraid.

OK. The impossible answer is...

A - Holmes Chapel is not in Dorset.

It's in Cheshire, I'm afraid.

So, Joe, Terry and Alyssa, we say goodbye.

-See you all tomorrow.

-Bye.

-Bye.

Question number four.

Just Yodas and Chewbaccas staring back at me.

Let's see if you've avoided the impossible answer.

You have. Uhura is not a Star Wars character,

she was a Star Trek character.

Let's find out where the points are going.

To the Cs, Chewbacca.

Point to all of you.

She was known as Chewbacca Mom.

And her video was watched 164 million times -

the most-watched video on Facebook that year.

We go on to question number five.

Pretty even split between As and Bs.

Just the one C, Kurtis.

I can tell you the impossible answer...

..is Musee Marc Chagall,

which is not in Paris, it's in Nice, I'm afraid, Kurtis.

-No worries.

-Not very nice for you.

-We'll see you tomorrow.

-See you tomorrow, bye.

The right answer...

..is B - Musee Rodin.

So, a point to all of you who went for B.

So, we finish that round with four of you on a maximum of five points.

They are Kathryn, Peter, Matthew and Junaid.

But the fastest to lock in their answers across the round...

..was Peter! APPLAUSE

Congratulations, Peter.

-You have the first chance to grab a place in today's final!

-Thank you.

-Hello, Peter.

-Hi, Rick.

Tell me a bit about what you do in your spare time -

-how do you like to enjoy yourself?

-I do like the garden,

I try to do that. And then my wife then imposes time on me,

she takes me out.

-It's...

-Ooh, that...

-It's tough!

That is tough, Peter. Where does she take you?

We live on the coast, and she likes to walk,

and there's a few nice parks nearby.

-You trail along behind.

-She trails along behind!

Right. What would you do with the £10,000?

South America and Central America is a part of the world I've not been to,

so I'd like to take Doreen on a trip there.

Preferably through the Panama Canal, I don't know why,

-I just fancy doing that.

-Yeah.

-Yeah, that would be nice.

-Yeah, that would be fantastic. Let's focus, then.

-Sure.

This is your chance to put up to £500 into the daily prize pot,

and, crucially, take a massive step towards playing the £10,000 question.

I'm going to give you a choice of four topics.

-Yes.

-Let's have a look at them.

I guess I'd better try sport.

Erm...

And hope it's football!

So, we're looking for...

football, ideally, but sport generally?

Yeah. Yeah. Football, cricket, yeah.

-OK. All right.

-Not golf, Rick, please!

Ooh...

-I'm going to reveal nine answers.

-Yeah.

-Here we go.

-I said not golf!

-LAUGHTER

Would you like to have a look at the first half of the question?

-Yes, please.

-OK.

Which venue for matches at the 1966 Fifa World Cup...

Five of those answers are impossible.

-Yep.

-Your first job is to find those impossible answers and get rid of them.

Each one you successfully eliminate will put £100 into the daily prize pot.

How old were you in 1966, Peter?

Er... 17.

-OK.

-Our generation is one of the only ones that's ever going to see

-England win a World Cup, so...

-Yeah, all right, Peter!

-Yeah.

-LAUGHTER

Where would you like to start, then?

Well, being a Geordie, obviously I'll eliminate St James' Park -

they didn't play any games at Newcastle.

OK. Is St James' Park an impossible answer?

It is. Very good. APPLAUSE

I think they played at Goodison Park, so if they did,

they wouldn't have played at Anfield, so I'll say Anfield.

OK. Is Anfield an impossible answer?

It is! APPLAUSE

Yep. And I know they played at Ayresome Park,

so, I suspect Elland Road might have been a bit near that, so...

Oh... Yeah...

I'll take a punt at Elland Road, then, please, Rick.

Is Elland Road an impossible answer?

It is, you know! APPLAUSE

They would have played in the Midlands,

and I think that would more likely be Villa Park than Molineux,

so I'll say Molineux next, Rick.

Is Molineux an impossible answer?

APPLAUSE

No matches played at Wolves' home ground.

It seems strange that they wouldn't play at Old Trafford, doesn't it?

Erm, I think they played at Maine Road,

so I'll say Old Trafford, Rick, with no great confidence.

-OK, so, slightly less confident on this one.

-Yep.

Old Trafford - is Old Trafford an impossible answer?

-No.

-No, they DID play there.

-Yeah.

So, £400 added to the prize pot, though.

-Yeah.

-Pretty good. Are you going to be playing for that money and for

a shot at the £10,000 question in today's final?

In a moment, I'm going to reveal the second half of the question.

-Yep.

-And I want the right answer.

Give me the right answer, you'll be in the final.

Give me a wrong answer,

and the next-best player will have the chance to steal your place...

-Yes.

-..in the final.

That next best player...

..was Junaid. APPLAUSE

-Hold tight, Junaid!

-Football is my Achilles heel, so...

I have absolutely no idea!

Fairly promising for you, I think, Peter!

-Shall we have a look at the full question?

-Please.

Which venue for matches at the 1966 Fifa World Cup

hosted the semifinal between West Germany and the Soviet Union?

-Villa Park.

-Yeah?

Is Villa Park the right answer?

It's not, I'm afraid.

That's a wrong answer, which means we throw to Junaid.

-I'm just going to go for Goodison Park.

-OK.

Did Goodison Park host the semifinal between West Germany and the Soviet Union?

-Oh, wow!

-APPLAUSE

It DID, Junaid. You've robbed Peter's place in the final!

-Thanks.

-And I have to say, I wasn't necessarily expecting that!

Neither was I!

-Bad luck, Peter.

-That's OK.

The other impossible answer?

-White Hart Lane.

-White Hart Lane, yeah.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

Do you happen to know the other London venue?

Well, obviously, Wembley, they played the final.

-Wembley, yeah.

-But another one...

-Another one.

-White City.

-Yes, it was White City.

-Yeah.

-No longer a sports ground of any description,

but they did play matches at White City.

-Yeah.

-Very bad luck, Peter, and Junaid, well done, you're in the final!

-Thanks.

APPLAUSE

Still two places left in today's final alongside Junaid.

Let's find out who's going to be claiming the next one.

There are 16 of you left.

-Are you ready? ALL:

-Yes!

Good luck, here's your first question.

All answers out there.

The right answer...

..is B - Billy.

A point to all of you. The impossible answer...

..is A - Barry. There's never been a Barry Mitchell,

meaning that, Linda and Matthew, see you both tomorrow.

Sorry, Matthew.

Question number two.

Anyone remember this song?

-Peter?

-"The greatest something in the land

"was Captain Beaky and his band.

"Timid Toad and Reckless Rat..."

So, I guess that rules out Modest Mouse!

The impossible answer...

..is B - Modest Mouse.

Modest Mouse are an American band.

Sue, Franklyn, Sam, Evonne and Eddie - we'll have to say goodbye.

-See you tomorrow.

-Bye.

-See ya.

And the points are going to...

..everyone who went for A - Timid Toad.

So, Tracey, Ciaran, Andrew and Angela.

Question three.

Just As and Bs.

The right answer...

..is B - Lord's. So, a point to everyone who went for Lord's.

Have the As avoided the impossible answer?

Yes, they have. The Crucible is not a Test cricket ground,

it's a snooker venue in Sheffield.

Question four.

Let's see if you've avoided the impossible answer.

A couple of you haven't.

The impossible answer is A River Runs Through It -

not a novel by Ernest Hemingway.

Tracey and Andy - we'll see you both tomorrow.

A River Runs Through It was written by Norman Maclean.

Let's see if the rest of you have got a point.

Ooh. No, you haven't.

The correct answer was C - To Have And Have Not.

And after a round of old-lady questions,

exactly as Angela requested yesterday, Angela is in the lead!

-Well done!

-On three points!

When do I give you half the money that I win?

Immediately that you win it! LAUGHTER

Now, don't mess this up, Angela.

LAUGHTER

Final question.

Kathryn, I'm afraid you didn't lock your answer in quickly enough.

-I know.

-I'm sorry.

-That's OK.

-Going to have to say goodbye.

The impossible answer...

..is Ed Balls.

Ed Balls is not the son of a former cabinet minister,

and he didn't stand in the 2017 general election.

So, you know you haven't given the impossible answer, Angela,

but have you given the right answer?

Who can say?!

I can, Angela! You have!

APPLAUSE

A point to the three of you who went for B.

Yes, Ben Gummer lost his Ipswich seat

in the June 2017 general election.

And he is the son of John Gummer.

Hilary Benn, the son Tony Benn, kept his seat at the 2017 election.

Which means, Angela, you finish in the lead on four points.

You're coming down to play a grid!

APPLAUSE

-Angela...

-Yes.

Very, very nice to have you here.

-Thank you.

-How old were YOU at the 1966 World Cup Final?

Well, I lived in Australia then.

I was one of the... You know the £10 Poms?

-£10 Poms?

-Yes, yes!

-Ah!

-My husband, myself and three children

set off for Australia with £50.

-Amazing!

-Yeah.

-And did it work out pretty well?

Well, we came back with much more than £50!

So, yes, it did, Angela!

-Yes.

-Yesterday, you were slightly concerned about the questions.

I'd like to think we do questions for everyone.

Yeah, but I have seen the categories -

I don't watch children's television!

-Ah.

-Can I have something else, please?

No. I can't change the categories for you.

Listen, they can't shoot you for trying, that's what I say.

No, of course they can't. Of course they can't.

What would you do with the money if you were to win the £10,000, Angela?

Looking at you, that's got to be the main prize, hasn't it?

Oh, stop it!

You're going to make me blush, Angela!

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

Now, can you give me some easy questions now I've said that?

Now you've buttered me up, of course I can, Angela!

Shall we have a look at the three topics?

-Yes, please.

-All right.

Children's Television, which we know you don't like...

Geography or Pop Music.

I'd better go for geography.

So, nine answers relating to geography - here they come.

Yeah, they're... I think they're all some kind of island,

to be honest with you.

-OK.

-I'm probably wrong, but that's what I think!

Well, let's have a look. The first half of the question reads...

Which overseas department of France...

-Yeah, right.

-Where would you like to start?

Er, possibly South Georgia.

Why are you starting with that, then, Angela?

Because I think it's something, like,

down near the Falklands or something.

Is South Georgia an impossible answer?

APPLAUSE

Absolutely spot on, Angela.

It's a British territory near the Falklands in the South Atlantic.

-Where next?

-I'll try -

and I'm not sure how you pronounce it - Guam?

So, we're going to have a go on Guam.

Is that wrong?

APPLAUSE

Guam is a US territory in the Pacific.

-Yeah.

-Two from two.

Right. I tell you what I'll try, without a great deal of confidence -

-Aruba.

-Is Aruba an impossible answer?

APPLAUSE

That's a Dutch territory in the Caribbean.

Three from three.

Yeah. I'll go for Guadeloupe, please.

Guadeloupe?

Ooh.

No, Guadeloupe IS an overseas department of France, I'm afraid.

-Right, yeah.

-But one go remaining, let's get rid of one last impossible.

I'll try Mayotte - you know, with no confidence whatsoever.

Is Mayotte an impossible answer?

Unfortunately not.

That's another overseas department of France.

-Nevertheless...

-Yeah.

-£300 added to the prize pot - now stands at £700,

pretty decent. But are you going to be playing for that money, Angela,

and for a shot at the £10,000 question in today's final?

In a moment, I'm going to reveal the second half of the question,

and you'll be looking for the right answer.

Give me the right answer, you're in the final with Junaid.

Give me a wrong answer,

-and the next-best player will have the chance to steal your place in the final.

-Right.

And that next-best player...

-..is Vicky!

-Oh, no!

-Oh, yes, Vicky!

APPLAUSE

-Shall we have a look at the full question?

-Please, yes.

Which overseas department of France

has a capital city called Fort-de-France?

Guadeloupe, because I do know that that is a French territory.

-Mmm.

-It's only because I'm a coward, you know, that I'm doing that!

No-one is sitting here thinking you're a coward, at all!

-Have you asked them all?

-LAUGHTER

I can tell by looking at them.

Does Guadeloupe have a capital city called Fort-de-France?

-Ooh.

-No.

It doesn't. That's a wrong answer, but not an impossible answer.

So, Vicky, we throw over to you.

I haven't got a clue, so I'm going to be a coward and say Mayotte.

-OK.

-Cos I know that's not an impossible answer.

-OK, so similar tactic.

-Yeah.

-That Angela employed.

-We old ladies are very, very cowardly, you know.

-LAUGHTER

Is Mayotte the right answer?

It's not.

-Well done, Angela.

-Unlucky, Vicky.

Good news for you, though, Angela, you're going through to the final.

APPLAUSE

Any idea what the right answer would be?

Maybe Martinique.

-It is Martinique.

-I should have been brave enough.

You didn't need to be in the end.

And the other two impossible answers, Montserrat,

which is actually a British territory in the Caribbean.

-Right.

-And Anguilla, the same, British territory in the Caribbean.

-Right.

-You can forget all that now, Angela,

you've had a nice, lucky escape, we'll see you in today's final.

-Right, thank you.

-Would you like a little hand? APPLAUSE

Just one place up for grabs in the final with Junaid and Angela -

who's it going to be? Here's your first question.

-Vicky.

-I can't see the Can-Can being danced in the underworld

and Danse Macabre is something not very nice

and the Can-Can's quite jolly, isn't it?

Ciaran, you've gone for A - Orpheus In The Underworld.

-BSL INTERPRETER:

-To be honest, I've never listened to music anyway,

so, yeah, I've got no musical knowledge at all.

It's an extremely good excuse, Ciaran.

LAUGHTER

The impossible answer...

-Oh, no!

-B, Danse Macabre.

Danse Macabre is not by Offenbach, it's by Saint-Saens.

It is also the theme tune to Jonathan Creek.

Meaning Abigail and Andrew,

we have to say goodbye and we'll see you both tomorrow.

Let's see where the points are going.

To our As.

Orpheus In The Underworld.

So, a point to Ciaran and a point to Peter.

Question number two.

You've all gone for C, Crete.

Let's see if that's right.

It is. So, a point to all of you.

The impossible answer...

..is Comino.

Comino is the smallest of the three main islands of Malta.

On we go to question three.

Once again, you've all gone for the same answer, C.

The right answer...

..is C, Tsetse fly.

A point to all of you.

The impossible answer is A - Brundlefly,

which is what Seth Brundle,

the scientist played by Jeff Goldblum, becomes

when he combines with the fly in the film The Fly.

Question number four.

Let's find out where the points are going.

Nowhere.

C, Ella Eyre.

The impossible answer...

..is B. Jess Glynne did not attend the Brit School.

I'm sorry, Ciaran.

-BSL INTERPRETER:

-See you tomorrow, bye-bye.

Final question.

Let's see if either of you have given the right answer.

No. The right answer is A, Katrine.

So what that means is that one of you has given the impossible answer

and the other one will be coming down to play the grid.

The impossible answer...

..is B, Dewar.

Dewar was Scotland's first First Minister.

Peter, you've knocked yourself out, we'll see you tomorrow.

Thank you, yes, cheers.

But, Vicky, you've won the round.

APPLAUSE

Last player standing. Congratulations!

You have the last chance to grab a place in today's final.

APPLAUSE

-Hello, Vicky.

-Hello, Rick.

Tell me a bit more about your interest in computer games.

How many hours a day are you putting into it?

-Don't ask.

-Give me a ballpark, though, Vicky.

Probably about five or six hours.

That is really, really solid work, actually!

If you were to win the £10,000, what would you spend it on?

I've been researching.

-Yeah.

-When I haven't been playing my games.

And I am looking to buy a flashy mobility scooter.

How flashy can you get?

-You can get them that they fold themselves up with just a press of a button.

-Oh, wow!

And then, you see, the rest of the money would go to go and visit my grandson,

who lives in Bilbao. And whenever we go over there, we have to walk around Bilbao.

But if I had my mobility scooter, I'd be faster than everybody else.

You would be. I mean, we've got to get you this money, Vicky.

-I know.

-Cos that's a great trip.

-It is.

-You're whizzing around Bilbao...

-I know.

-..in your snazzy mobility scooter.

-I know.

-Shall we have a look at the last remaining topics?

-Oh, go on, then.

-You've been left with Children's Television and Pop Music.

-Well, I'm going to go for children's television and hope it's something I know.

-OK.

-Yep.

-Here they come.

Yeah, right!

So the first half question is -

Which children's programme created by Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin...

-Right.

-So five of those are impossible.

-Yes.

So the daily prize pot currently stands at £700,

for each impossible answer you eliminate, we'll add another £100.

-Where shall we start?

-We'll start with Morph. That was Tony Hart.

-With Morph.

-Morph.

OK, is Morph an impossible answer?

APPLAUSE It is.

It's actually an Aardman animation,

who went on to make Wallace and Gromit.

Of course. From Bristol. Yeah.

Well, I've never heard of William's Wish Wellingtons,

-so I'll go for that.

-OK.

Is William's Wish Wellingtons an impossible answer?

APPLAUSE It is. Two from two, Vicky.

You're making this look easy.

-I'm going to go for Chigley.

-Chigley.

Got anything for me on Chigley?

-Sounds like chewing gum to me.

-It does a bit.

Is Chigley an impossible answer?

APPLAUSE

Part of the Trumpton Shire trilogy.

OK, I'm going to go for Bod.

Bod.

Is Bod an impossible answer?

APPLAUSE

-Bod is based on the books by Joanne and Michael Cole.

-Right.

I think I'm going to go for Pogles' Wood.

-Pogles' Wood.

-Never heard of it.

Is Pogles' Wood an impossible answer?

Sadly not.

But you've put an extra £400 into the prize pot,

which now stands at £1,100.

-OK.

-For the second half of the question,

I'm going to be looking for the right answer.

-Yeah.

-Give me the right answer, you're in the final.

-OK.

-If you give me a wrong answer,

the next-best player will have the chance to steal,

and that is Peter.

APPLAUSE

Hold tight, Peter.

-Shall we look at the full question?

-Go on, then.

Which children's programme created by Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin

featured a Soup Dragon?

SHE CHORTLES

Well! A Soup Dragon...

-I'm going to go for Noggin The Nog.

-Noggin The Nog.

Is Noggin The Nog the right answer?

-At least it's not impossible.

-It's not, but it's not impossible.

-Exactly.

-Come on, Peter.

-Yeah, come on, Peter.

-Come on.

-I don't remember the TV show, but our daughter, who...

This is about 35 years ago,

she had a number of annuals and I seem to think -

was it in the Clangers? On the moon?

Is Clangers...

..the right answer?

-APPLAUSE

-Yes!

-It is!

-Well done!

-I'm afraid.

Well done, Peter. You've nabbed Vicky's place in the final.

Just to tidy the board up,

the other remaining impossible answer was Willo The Wisp.

Willo The Wisp was narrated by Kenneth Williams.

Bad luck, Vicky. Hope we see you down here again.

-Thank you.

-Peter, congratulations.

-Thank you.

For the rest of you, I'm afraid that victory today proved impossible,

-but we'll see you all again tomorrow. Goodbye. ALL:

-Bye.

But for Junaid, Angela and Peter, it's time for the final.

Junaid, Angela and Peter, there's £1,100 in today's prize pot,

but only one of you can win that money and the right to face the £10,000 question.

Questions are on the buzzer.

You each start with ten lives.

There they are.

A right answer knocks a life off both of your opponents.

A wrong answer, and you lose a life of your own.

But look out for those impossible questions.

You can knock two lives from your opponents but if you mess up,

you lose two lives of your own. Best of luck.

-You ready?

-Yes.

-Yes, thanks.

OK. Which Glasgow football team play their home games at Ibrox Stadium?

-Peter.

-Glasgow Rangers.

It is Glasgow Rangers.

In which decade of the 20th century did Barack Obama become President of the United States?

-Junaid?

-Impossible?

-It is impossible.

He became president in 2009.

Alex Garland's novel The Beach is mainly set in which Asian country?

-Peter.

Commiserations to both you and Angela.

We'll see you back in the pack tomorrow but, Peter,

it's time to face the £10,000 question.

APPLAUSE

Very well done, Peter.

You are today's winner with £1,100, which is lovely,

but you could be leaving with a whole lot more if you can answer the £10,000 question.

This is how it's going to work.

I'm going to show you nine answers and then ask you a question.

Three of the nine answers are correct.

If you can give me those within ten seconds, you win the £10,000.

That's the good news. The less good news is that three of those answers are wrong.

Pick any of those and you won't win the ten grand.

The bad news is that three of the nine answers are impossible.

If you give me one of those, you will lose the daily prize pot.

I want you to be leaving wondering how you're going to get that home.

-Thanks.

-That's what I want.

-Yeah.

Any subject you're particularly hoping for?

Literature would be nice.

History, maybe. It's a big subject, of course.

It depends which part of history that comes.

I can tell you that the subject is Politics.

-Best of luck.

-Thank you.

And you're looking for...

Labour Prime Ministers whose real first name was James.

And your time starts now.

James Callaghan.

James Harold Wilson.

James Tony Blair.

-How do you feel?

-I've got no idea.

I'm just thinking because I've said two that didn't start with James,

I wonder whether James Callaghan perhaps had a Harold or a George in front of it,

so perhaps the obvious one is the one that's wrong.

So, let's start with Harold Wilson.

Is Harold Wilson a Labour Prime Minister whose real first name was James?

Yes.

APPLAUSE

James Harold Wilson, as you said.

Now, you're slightly concerned about James Callaghan.

Is James Callaghan a right answer?

It's not, unfortunately.

As you suspected, his first name was Leonard,

-so it's Leonard James Callaghan.

-Yep, yep.

-However, we're still hanging onto the daily prize pot of £1,100 at the moment.

-Yeah.

Feels relatively safe, don't you think, Peter?

-Oh, yeah. I'm sure Tony Blair and James Callaghan were Labour Prime Ministers.

-Right.

So, let's see, is Tony Blair a right answer?

Not a right answer, but as you said, very confidently,

Labour Prime Minister.

So, therefore, you do still win £1,100, Peter.

-APPLAUSE

-Thank you, cheers.

The answers you were looking for...

Now you've got a bit longer to look at it, what do you reckon?

Must be James Gordon Brown, surely.

James Gordon Brown, that's right.

And...

James Clement Attlee.

Ramsay MacDonald was a Liberal, wasn't he, so, James Clement Atlee?

-No.

-No?

-James Ramsay MacDonald.

Ramsay MacDonald was the first Labour Prime Minister.

Of course, yes. It's David Lloyd George I'm getting mixed up with the Liberal, yeah.

The impossible answers. Edward Heath, Conservative.

Anthony Eden, Conservative.

-And David Lloyd George, Liberal.

-Yeah.

That doesn't matter, though. You just won £1,100!

Yes, lovely, thank you.

Hope it goes a small way towards the cruise on the Panama Canal.

-It's been a pleasure. Thank you very much.

-Enjoyed meeting you.

That's very kind of you, Peter. Been nice meeting you.

Peter leaves with £1,100.

The rest of us will be back tomorrow, when someone else will have the chance to win the £10,000.

This is been Impossible, the quiz where, actually, anything is possible.

Goodbye.

Give me a hug!
