0:13:44 > 0:13:47Ainsley, what do you think of a buffet? Do you like...?
0:13:47 > 0:13:49I don't know, I don't like the food hanging around for too long.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52If you get there nice and early, so if it opens at 12, get there at 12.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56If you get there at two or three, then it's vwoop, vwoop, vwoop.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58What's that, "Vwoop, vwoop, vwoop"?
0:13:58 > 0:14:02Well, don't go into that. I don't like the thought of it.
0:14:02 > 0:14:03Next one.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Now, come on, you're on a roll here.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07OK, she's a pop star.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Her name is a colour,

0:14:11 > 0:14:13- Pink...?- On an ice rink.- Yes!
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Oh, yes, please, let's have a look.
0:14:17 > 0:14:21Pink at an ice rink. Well done.
0:14:21 > 0:14:22OK, here we go.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Ah, this is a hard one.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27OK, he's a grumpy comedian...
0:14:27 > 0:14:29- And I can't think of anything else! - Oh, Jack Dee?
0:14:29 > 0:14:31- Yes!- Yes!
0:14:31 > 0:14:33- In a tepee?- No.- Erm...
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Jack Dee...

0:14:53 > 0:14:56APPLAUSE
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Well, that's brilliant. Well done.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Please, rejoin your team.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Didn't she do well, everyone?
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Thank you!
0:15:04 > 0:15:08So, after that Mime The Rhyme, let's have a look at the scores.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Tyler, you've got four.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Victoria, you've got five.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Full house, well done!
0:15:15 > 0:15:16Thank you!
0:15:16 > 0:15:19It's all still to play for as we go into round three.
0:15:22 > 0:15:23Oh, yes!
0:15:26 > 0:15:28I'm about to show you a short film.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Hidden in the film are six pairs of rhymes to find.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34If you spot the rhymes, please write them down.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36There's a point for each correct pair.
0:15:36 > 0:15:41Today, since it's Christmas, we're visiting our fairy godmother.
0:15:41 > 0:15:46Or, rather, our lairy godmother, Lesley Joseph.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50Once upon a time, there was a gorgeous fairy godmother
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Who, when she didn't have panto to do
0:15:52 > 0:15:55Always made the wishes of others come true.
0:15:57 > 0:16:02Ah, yes, Cinderella - tall, handsome and independently wealthy.
0:16:02 > 0:16:03Got it!
0:16:06 > 0:16:09But then, one Christmas, she had an epiphany...
0:16:09 > 0:16:11It's all about me!
0:16:11 > 0:16:14So instead of making her friend's dreams come true
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Her magical help, she promptly withdrew.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20MUSIC: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun by Cyndi Lauper
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Another wish from Snow White,
0:16:22 > 0:16:24fourth one this week.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32No, Cinderella, I have no idea why your feet smell so bad.
0:16:36 > 0:16:37No wonder you can't get a man.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41DOORBELL
0:16:41 > 0:16:42Yes?
0:16:42 > 0:16:44It's the noise, it's driving me nuts.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47It's the music, it goes on and on...
0:16:47 > 0:16:48MAGICAL CHIME
0:16:49 > 0:16:51CROAKING
0:16:51 > 0:16:53FAIRY GIGGLES
0:16:53 > 0:16:54Oops!
0:16:54 > 0:16:57But what this fairy godmother wanted the most
0:16:57 > 0:16:59was her very own Prince Charming.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03So she made a meal that was truly five-star
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Even though my cooking is strictly below par.
0:17:10 > 0:17:11That's better.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15And to find herself in romantic heaven
0:17:15 > 0:17:18This fairy's dream date was 007.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Abracadabra, trouble and strife
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Make my dream husband come to life.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27Hello, Miss Moneypenny.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31I'm better off with the frog!
0:17:33 > 0:17:36So, deciding she'd be good and grant wishes again
0:17:36 > 0:17:38It was time to say...
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Merry Christmas, everyone,
0:17:40 > 0:17:42Especially to Len!
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Mwah!

0:17:57 > 0:17:59Don't start, OK?
0:17:59 > 0:18:01How many did you get at home?
0:18:01 > 0:18:02Let's see it you were right.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09Victoria got that. Tyler, did you get that?
0:18:09 > 0:18:13- No, we didn't get it officially. - Not officially.- OK, no excuses.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14Next one.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21Tyler got that. And Victoria got that, well done.
0:18:21 > 0:18:22Next one.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48Here we go, next one.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Tyler's there. Victoria? Well done.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58That was a high-scoring round indeed.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12APPLAUSE
0:19:12 > 0:19:15But there are more points to be won before the next round is done.
