Hello, I'm Rick Edwards, and this is !mpossible day 11. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
'Impossible!' | 0:00:09 | 0:00:10 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
'Impossible!' | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
Welcome to !mpossible, the quiz where the questions aren't impossible, | 0:00:16 | 0:00:20 | |
but some of the answers always are. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:22 | |
They're not just wrong, they couldn't possibly be right. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:25 | |
For example, if I were to ask... | 0:00:25 | 0:00:26 | |
The right answer is Kefalonia, | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
the wrong answer is Corfu, but Capri isn't a Greek island at all, | 0:00:36 | 0:00:40 | |
it's Italian. So that is an impossible answer. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
Hoping to get lots of right answers, | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
whilst dodging those pesky impossible answers, are 30 players. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
-Hello, players. ALL: -Hello! | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
Nice to see you all. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:52 | |
They are with us throughout the series, | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
competing not only for a daily prize pot of up to £1,500,... | 0:00:54 | 0:00:59 | |
-AUDIENCE: -Oooh! | 0:00:59 | 0:01:00 | |
..but also for a shot at the £10,000 question. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
-AUDIENCE: -Oooh! | 0:01:04 | 0:01:05 | |
Yes, this exclamation mark is filled with 10,000 shimmering pound coins. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:11 | |
At the end of every show, our winner faces one final question. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:16 | |
And here it is. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
Today's £10,000 question. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:20 | |
Get this right, and all of that cash will come flooding out. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:25 | |
Elaine. You're new! | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
I am, hello. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:28 | |
Tell us a bit about yourself, Elaine. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
What do you do when you're not on !mpossible? | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
I'm a stay-at-home mum. I have four sons and a lovely, | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
gorgeous husband who looks after me. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
-How old are your sons? -18, up to 29. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
OK. Still all living with you, or are they...? | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
Two are, one keeps coming back, and one I can't get rid of. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
-Dan. -Hello. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:49 | |
-How are things? -Tricky at the minute, | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
still waiting to get down and play a grid. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
I really want you to get down and play a grid, Dan. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
Yeah, maybe this will be my week. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:57 | |
-It could be, it could be a lucky week for you. -That's it. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
OK, well, good luck. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:01 | |
But for now, let's crack on. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
You will face five multiple-choice questions, each with three answers. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
The right answer scores you a point, the wrong answer scores you nothing. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
But if you choose the impossible answer... | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
..it's a bit of a disaster, | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |
that immediately knocks you out of today's show and you have to try again | 0:02:18 | 0:02:22 | |
tomorrow. After five questions, | 0:02:22 | 0:02:25 | |
the highest scorer gets the first chance to bag a place in today's final, | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
and do answer as quickly as you can, because if there's a tie, | 0:02:29 | 0:02:33 | |
whoever locked in their answers the fastest will qualify. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:37 | |
-Are we ready? ALL: -Yes! | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
Good luck, everyone. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:40 | |
Here's your first question. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
It's B, the Farrelly brothers, | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
a point to everyone that went for the Farrellys. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
Of course, the Chuckle Brothers are | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
television personalities in the UK, they haven't made any films yet. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:20 | |
So everyone progresses to question two. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
It's the Daily Mirror, B. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
Well done if you went for that, a point to you. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
It is C, the Daily Telegraph, which is a broadsheet, which means, | 0:03:58 | 0:04:03 | |
Helen and Curtis, we're going to have to say goodbye, | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
we'll see you tomorrow. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
Question number three. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:10 | |
Let's first reveal the right answer. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
It's B, Cordelia. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
Well done if you put Cordelia. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:33 | |
A point to you. Jane, you went for Goneril. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
Well, I did, because I'm pretty sure there is a character called Goneril | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
in King Lear. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
That's why. And I'm hoping a daughter. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:46 | |
OK. Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:50 | |
It's Rosalind, which means it's a bloodbath. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:57 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
Rosalind is a character in As You Like It. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
Going to have to say goodbye to all of you, and see you tomorrow. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:06 | |
Let's go to question four. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
Unfortunately, one of you didn't lock your answer in in time. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
Bim, were you having a little snooze? | 0:05:32 | 0:05:35 | |
It's official, I'm Miss !mpossible. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:38 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:05:38 | 0:05:39 | |
Like the show's mascot, Bim. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
-Exactly. -But I will see you tomorrow. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
Thank you. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:45 | |
So we've got a full spread, all answers in there. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:55 | |
It's A, What About Us, | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
was number one in 2013. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
If you went for What About Us, you get a point. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:08 | |
It's Drag Me Down, which is by One Direction. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
Meaning, Deb and Anthony, that's it for today, | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
we'll see you both tomorrow. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
Just one person is on four points. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:25 | |
And I don't want to take all the credit... | 0:06:25 | 0:06:28 | |
LAUGHTER ..but I had a word with him, and it is Dan. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:32 | |
CHEERING | 0:06:32 | 0:06:34 | |
I've got you, buddy. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:35 | |
Now, just don't mess this up! | 0:06:37 | 0:06:39 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:06:39 | 0:06:40 | |
OK. Question five. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:44 | |
Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:04 | |
It's Westminster Cathedral, which is a Catholic Church. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:12 | |
I'm afraid, Ray and Carol Marie, we we'll have to say goodbye to you | 0:07:12 | 0:07:15 | |
now, and we'll see you tomorrow. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:17 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
It's Westminster Abbey! | 0:07:24 | 0:07:25 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
Congratulations, Dan. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:31 | |
Too busy getting kisses off the ladies. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |
Everyone gets a point. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
Dan, you go up to five points and you have the | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
chance to grab the first place in today's final. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:43 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:07:43 | 0:07:44 | |
Dan, everyone's delighted you've made it down. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
I'm delighted you've made it down. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:53 | |
So you used to be a science teacher for ten years. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
-Yes. -What are you doing now? | 0:07:56 | 0:07:58 | |
I DJ and I do a bit of web design, | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
and the other thing I've got going on is looking into grammar school | 0:08:00 | 0:08:04 | |
entrance kind of tuition. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:05 | |
Having taught at a grammar school myself and had the benefit of that | 0:08:05 | 0:08:08 | |
education, I think it's really important. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
And too many kids don't get the chance because they're priced out, | 0:08:10 | 0:08:13 | |
so I'm looking to kind of do a bit pro bono for the guys from tough, | 0:08:13 | 0:08:17 | |
socially deprived areas, like myself, you know, | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
smart guys, get a chance and then they can go and build their own future. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
-Fantastic. -So going out... | 0:08:23 | 0:08:24 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
..tutoring kids so they've got a better chance of getting into grammar schools and | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
-getting a great education. -Yeah. -Really good. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:32 | |
All right. So this is your chance, Dan, | 0:08:32 | 0:08:34 | |
to put up to £500 into today's prize pot. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:38 | |
I'm going to give you a choice of four topics, we're hoping for science. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:42 | |
Let's see. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:43 | |
Books and Literature, Sport, Mythology, Television. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:51 | |
-Not science per se. -Mm-hm. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
I'm going to go with Mythology. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
-Mythology. -Yeah. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
OK. I'm going to reveal nine answers. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
They are... | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
And the first half of the question... | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
Five of those answers are impossible because they are not from Greek | 0:09:26 | 0:09:30 | |
mythology. Your first job is to find those impossible answers and banish | 0:09:30 | 0:09:34 | |
them into oblivion. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:37 | |
Each impossible answer you manage to eliminate will add £100 to today's | 0:09:37 | 0:09:41 | |
prize pot. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:43 | |
Where would you like to start? | 0:09:43 | 0:09:44 | |
I'd like to go with Wyvern first. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
What do you think a wyvern is? | 0:09:48 | 0:09:49 | |
I think it's a dragon. I think it's from Welsh kind of mythology. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:53 | |
OK. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
Is it an impossible answer? | 0:09:55 | 0:09:56 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
It's a winged dragon from medieval folklore. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:07 | |
Where do you want to go next? | 0:10:07 | 0:10:08 | |
-Banshee. -Let's lock banshee in. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:13 | |
What are you thinking about a banshee? | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
I'm pretty sure that's... I think it's Irish or Celtic, and | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
it's a female kind of ghost. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
OK. Is banshee an impossible answer? | 0:10:21 | 0:10:25 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:10:28 | 0:10:29 | |
It is. £200 added to the prize pot. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
It's Celtic, and it's a female spirit. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
OK. Where next? | 0:10:36 | 0:10:39 | |
I think berserker. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:40 | |
Just give me the full description of the berserker. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
Actually, I don't know what it is, but it doesn't sound very Greek, | 0:10:44 | 0:10:47 | |
I've not head of it before, so on that rationale, | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
-that's why I'm going for it. -OK. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
Is berserker an impossible answer? | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:10:57 | 0:10:58 | |
It is. £300 in the prize pot now. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:02 | |
A berserker is from Norse mythology, it's a Norse warrior. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:08 | |
Two more impossible answers to find. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
I think it's Ma-kara, is that how you pronounce it? | 0:11:11 | 0:11:14 | |
-Or Mak-ara. -Makara. Any idea on Makara? | 0:11:14 | 0:11:18 | |
Again, doesn't sound very Greek, | 0:11:18 | 0:11:19 | |
I'm looking at the other ones that I'm fairly sure on, | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
and it doesn't fit for me, so I'll go with it. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
OK. Is Makara an impossible answer? | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
APPLAUSE It is, £400 in the prize pot. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:35 | |
It's half mammal, half fish, from Hindu mythology. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:39 | |
One more impossible answer up there. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
I'm going to go with Syclla. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |
Let's lock in Syclla. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:47 | |
Is Syclla an impossible answer? | 0:11:48 | 0:11:52 | |
It isn't. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:57 | |
Syclla is a beast from Greek mythology. | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
You've still done very well, you've put £400 into the prize fund. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
In a moment, I'm going to reveal the second half of the question. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:09 | |
And I'm now looking for the right answer. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
Find it, and a place in the final is yours. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:15 | |
Give me a wrong answer, and the next-best player will have | 0:12:15 | 0:12:18 | |
the chance to steal your place in the final. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
I can reveal that it was, | 0:12:21 | 0:12:25 | |
for the 15,000th time, Ash! | 0:12:25 | 0:12:30 | |
I want a bridesmaid's outfit. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:32 | |
-We'll get you one for tomorrow. -Thank you. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
There is one impossible answer remaining. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:37 | |
If that trips you up, sadly, you will be eliminated from today's show. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:43 | |
Let's reveal the full question. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
I'm pretty sure it's centaur. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
OK. | 0:12:58 | 0:12:59 | |
If centaur is the right answer, you're through to today's final. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:04 | |
If it's the wrong answer, Ash will have the chance to steal. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:08 | |
Is centaur the right answer? | 0:13:10 | 0:13:13 | |
Yes, it is! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:13:16 | 0:13:18 | |
Well done, Dan. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:21 | |
That was... My heart was beating a bit there. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:25 | |
I thought you probably knew it. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
I thought you probably knew it. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:29 | |
You did miss one impossible, | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |
that was leviathan, which is a sea serpent from the Old Testament. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:37 | |
Ah, that's Old Testament. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:38 | |
But absolutely brilliantly, you've got through, after the pep talk, | 0:13:38 | 0:13:42 | |
to take your place in the final. Well done, Dan. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:44 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:13:44 | 0:13:46 | |
Still two places left in today's final alongside Dan. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:54 | |
Let's find out who's going to be claiming the next one. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
Same deal as before, five multiple-choice questions. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:01 | |
Here's your first question. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:03 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:24 | |
It's C, Mrs White. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
A point to everyone that went for Mrs White. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
Have the rest of you managed to avoid the impossible answer? | 0:14:31 | 0:14:34 | |
It was B, Professor Green, who is a rapper. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
Question number two. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:42 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
It is C, Washington. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:01 | |
a point to everyone who put that. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
-Annie? -I don't want to speak to you. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
RICK LAUGHS | 0:15:06 | 0:15:08 | |
I'm not speaking to you! I just, oh, bottled it again. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:13 | |
-Really? -Yep. I know Omaha's not a state. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
Oh, Annie. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:17 | |
-I'm not speaking to you no more. -All right, you don't have to. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
I'll just tell you what the impossible answer was. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
It's B, Omaha. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:28 | |
Not a state, it's the largest city in Nebraska. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:32 | |
We can talk about it tomorrow, Annie. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:33 | |
Also have to say goodbye to you as well, Paul. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:35 | |
-Yeah. -See you tomorrow. -Cheers. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |
Question number three. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:40 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
It's Saint West, C. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
So, just three of you getting a point. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:04 | |
For the rest of you, let's see if you've managed to avoid | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
the impossible answer? | 0:16:06 | 0:16:09 | |
You have. The impossible answer was South West. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:14 | |
North West was born in 2013. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:18 | |
Moving on to question four. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:20 | |
Someone didn't lock their answer in, in time. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:41 | |
Kerry. What happened? | 0:16:41 | 0:16:45 | |
I thought I did. Obviously I did not. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
-Nope. -I do not have an explanation. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:51 | |
Do you know what you're going to get tomorrow? | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
Probably Olly Murs' album from my daughter! | 0:16:53 | 0:16:57 | |
-LAUGHTER -That's more likely than not. | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
You're going to get an Olly Murs album from your daughter, | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
and a pep talk from this guy. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
-Thank you. -OK? | 0:17:05 | 0:17:07 | |
For now, we have to say goodbye. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
I'll see you tomorrow. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:11 | |
We have all answers covered. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:16 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
It's A, Peter III. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
So, four of you get a point. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:26 | |
Ash. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
-What were you thinking about? -I actually acted in a play, | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
where I played the ballerina strumpet to Nicholas II. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:36 | |
Was your performance any good? | 0:17:36 | 0:17:37 | |
I... I really was rocking a little tutu, definitely! | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
OK. Well, let's see if you're going to have | 0:17:40 | 0:17:44 | |
more time to reflect on your performance | 0:17:44 | 0:17:46 | |
in that production, | 0:17:46 | 0:17:48 | |
and see if you've given an impossible answer. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
Nicholas III. There was no such emperor. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:57 | |
-I'll just have a little think now. -Yes, | 0:17:57 | 0:17:59 | |
you will have to have a little think. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
Sarah, you might have to have a little think as well. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:04 | |
We'll see you both tomorrow. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:06 | |
-Craig? -I'm hanging on. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:07 | |
-Middle worked. -I'm a trier. -You are. -I'm a trier. | 0:18:07 | 0:18:10 | |
I just want to get to round three, and then I'll be happy. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:14 | |
All right. So, after four questions, | 0:18:14 | 0:18:18 | |
three of you are tied on three points. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:21 | |
It may well be important who locks in their answers the fastest. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:26 | |
Question five. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:28 | |
Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
It's C, Goldeneye. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:55 | |
Elaine, you were tied in the lead. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
Goldeneye was not based on an Ian Fleming book. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:01 | |
The 1995 film was named after his house in Jamaica. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:05 | |
Oh. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
I'm sorry. We'll see you tomorrow. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:09 | |
OK. Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:14 | |
It is The Man With The Golden Gun. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:19 | |
So, a point to all of you who went for that. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
I can tell you that both Gerard and Anne got that correct. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:27 | |
It means that Gerard and Anne are tied on four points each. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:32 | |
The fastest to lock in their answers across the round by a whisker... | 0:19:32 | 0:19:38 | |
..was Gerard. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:41 | |
Congratulations, Gerard. APPLAUSE | 0:19:41 | 0:19:44 | |
You have the chance to grab a place in today's final alongside Dan. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:48 | |
-Hello, Gerard. -Hello, again. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
-How are you? -I'm pretty good, pretty good. | 0:19:57 | 0:20:00 | |
I'm feeling a bit bad about this whisker that was between myself and Anne. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:05 | |
It would have been nice to have seen her down here, actually. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
Yes, but, of course, Anne will have the chance to steal from you. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:12 | |
And I think Anne will happily take that chance. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:14 | |
-I think... -LAUGHTER | 0:20:14 | 0:20:16 | |
You've had one go already at the £10,000 question. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
You didn't win the £10,000. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:22 | |
-No. -Are you feeling good about today? | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
I'm feeling positive. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:26 | |
We're just going to have to wait and see how it goes. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:30 | |
It all depends on what the subject of that secret question is. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:35 | |
All right. You have the chance to add £500 to today's prize pot, which | 0:20:35 | 0:20:40 | |
already stands at £400, thanks to Dan. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:44 | |
-Yes. -Of the three remaining topics, | 0:20:44 | 0:20:48 | |
which are Books and Literature, Sport, | 0:20:48 | 0:20:50 | |
and Television, which would you like to go for? | 0:20:50 | 0:20:54 | |
I'm going to try Television. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:56 | |
OK. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
Well, here are your nine answers. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:02 | |
And the first half of your question... | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
Five of those answers are impossible because they didn't win | 0:21:27 | 0:21:31 | |
Strictly Come Dancing. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:33 | |
You need to find those impossible answers and get rid of them. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
Each impossible answer you eliminate will add £100 to today's prize pot. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:43 | |
Where would you like to start? | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
I am going to start with one that sticks in my memory | 0:21:45 | 0:21:49 | |
for his entertaining performance, | 0:21:49 | 0:21:53 | |
but it wasn't exactly technically perfect, | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
so he didn't win it, and that was John Sergeant. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:59 | |
All right. Is John Sergeant an impossible answer? | 0:21:59 | 0:22:03 | |
He is. APPLAUSE | 0:22:06 | 0:22:07 | |
£100 added to the prize pot. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:11 | |
He actually withdrew in series six. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:13 | |
Next, I'm trying to wonder if she actually took part in it at all. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:21 | |
Because she presents the sort of companion programme to it on BBC Two. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:26 | |
I'm going to go for Zoe Ball. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
Zoe Ball, let's lock her in. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:31 | |
Is Zoe Ball an impossible answer? | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
She is. APPLAUSE | 0:22:38 | 0:22:41 | |
She did take part, she came third in series three. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:44 | |
But she does now present It Takes Two. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
Now it gets harder. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:49 | |
There were... | 0:22:49 | 0:22:51 | |
lots of lovely, pretty young ladies, | 0:22:51 | 0:22:56 | |
entertainers in it. | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
I'm looking at two of them there, Rachel and Denise. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
But I don't think Rachel would have won. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
OK. Is she an impossible answer? | 0:23:05 | 0:23:08 | |
APPLAUSE She is, well done, Gerard, £300 added to the prize pot. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
It now stands at £700. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
Rachel came second in series six. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
Oh, gosh. I apologise to Rachel for underestimating her performance. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:27 | |
And there's always been one or two sportsmen in it. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:31 | |
So, I'm looking at the two sportsmen. | 0:23:31 | 0:23:34 | |
So, I'd like to eliminate Matt Dawson, please. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:38 | |
OK. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
Is Matt Dawson an impossible answer? | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
-He is. -Right. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:49 | |
He also did rather well in series four, came second. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
£400 added to the prize pot. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:54 | |
It now stands at £800. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:56 | |
One more impossible answer on the grid, let's see if we can eliminate it. | 0:23:56 | 0:24:00 | |
Now, this could be a famous last word that comes back to haunt me. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:04 | |
But I think I'm OK now because I think the last one to get rid of is | 0:24:04 | 0:24:08 | |
Denise Van Outen. | 0:24:08 | 0:24:10 | |
-Yeah? -Yes, please. -Is Denise Van Outen... | 0:24:11 | 0:24:14 | |
an impossible answer? | 0:24:16 | 0:24:17 | |
She is! | 0:24:20 | 0:24:22 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:24:22 | 0:24:23 | |
£500 added to the prize pot. | 0:24:23 | 0:24:25 | |
Very well done, Gerard. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
She came joint second in series ten. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:31 | |
So, the prize fund now stands at £900. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:35 | |
Let's see if you are going to be playing for that money, | 0:24:35 | 0:24:38 | |
and for a shot at the £10,000 question in the final. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:42 | |
When I reveal the second half of the question, | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
you need to tell me the right answer. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
Find it, you're in the final with Dan. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
Give me a wrong answer, | 0:24:51 | 0:24:53 | |
and the next best player, who is Anne, as you know, | 0:24:53 | 0:24:57 | |
gets the chance to steal your place in the final. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:01 | |
The full question is... | 0:25:01 | 0:25:03 | |
Which celebrity winner of Strictly Come Dancing won the first series of | 0:25:04 | 0:25:10 | |
the show? | 0:25:10 | 0:25:11 | |
Thank you, God! | 0:25:11 | 0:25:14 | |
He's definitely watching. | 0:25:14 | 0:25:16 | |
He's watching over me as well at the moment, I can tell you. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:18 | |
-It was Natasha Kaplinsky. -You seem very confident in that. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:21 | |
Let's get that locked in. | 0:25:21 | 0:25:24 | |
Is Natasha Kaplinsky the right answer? | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
It is! | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
-Well done, Gerard. -Thank you. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
-Congratulations, take your place in the final. -Thank you! | 0:25:37 | 0:25:40 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:25:40 | 0:25:43 | |
So, just one place left in today's final alongside Dan and Gerard. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:50 | |
Let's see who it's going to be. Only six surviving now. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:54 | |
Here are your five multiple-choice questions, starting with... | 0:25:54 | 0:25:58 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:15 | |
It's B, Harold. | 0:26:16 | 0:26:18 | |
A point to all of you Harolds. | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:23 | |
A, William. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:27 | |
There was no Saxon king called William. | 0:26:27 | 0:26:30 | |
You've survived, Craig. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
-I can't cope with this! -One down, four to go. | 0:26:32 | 0:26:35 | |
CRAIG CHUCKLES | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
Question two. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:40 | |
Everyone's gone for Battenberg. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:57 | |
Let's see if that's the right answer? | 0:26:57 | 0:27:00 | |
It is. A point to everyone. | 0:27:00 | 0:27:04 | |
The impossible answer, Craig? | 0:27:04 | 0:27:06 | |
-Bratwurst? -Let's see. | 0:27:06 | 0:27:08 | |
Yes. It's a pork sausage. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:13 | |
Question number three. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:17 | |
Craig. You went for Kylo Ren. | 0:27:35 | 0:27:37 | |
I did. Well, I know it's not Tyrion Lannister, | 0:27:37 | 0:27:41 | |
-cos that is Game Of Thrones. -Ooh. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:45 | |
That's bad news for Jane, potentially. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:48 | |
And I've been very lucky because my career, I'm an actor and performer, | 0:27:48 | 0:27:55 | |
and I was lucky enough to be in the film. | 0:27:55 | 0:27:58 | |
-So, if you got this wrong, Craig! -I'm going to be very, very stupid! | 0:27:58 | 0:28:01 | |
Let's see. Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:28:03 | 0:28:07 | |
It's A, Poe Dameron! LAUGHTER | 0:28:09 | 0:28:13 | |
You were IN the film, Craig! | 0:28:16 | 0:28:21 | |
I was a creature so I couldn't see very well. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:24 | |
OK, fine, then. LAUGHTER | 0:28:24 | 0:28:27 | |
Jo, the only one to get it right and get a point. | 0:28:27 | 0:28:31 | |
-Wow! -Hooray! | 0:28:31 | 0:28:35 | |
Now, Craig, you did think that Tyrion Lannister | 0:28:35 | 0:28:39 | |
-maybe NOT in Star Wars... -Mm-hm. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:41 | |
But famously you couldn't see very well, so he might have been. LAUGHTER | 0:28:41 | 0:28:45 | |
Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:28:45 | 0:28:47 | |
It is Tyrion Lannister. | 0:28:50 | 0:28:52 | |
I'm afraid, Jane, that is a Game Of Thrones character. | 0:28:52 | 0:28:55 | |
-Sorry, grandkids. -We'll see you tomorrow. | 0:28:55 | 0:28:58 | |
-Thank you. -Question number four. | 0:28:58 | 0:29:01 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:29:18 | 0:29:20 | |
It's B, Reykjavik. | 0:29:22 | 0:29:24 | |
So, a point to Anne, Joe and Megan. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:28 | |
Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:29:28 | 0:29:30 | |
It's C, Karachi. | 0:29:33 | 0:29:36 | |
Karachi is not a capital city, | 0:29:36 | 0:29:38 | |
it's the largest city in Pakistan but Islamabad is the capital. | 0:29:38 | 0:29:43 | |
I'm sorry, Tracy, we'll have to say goodbye to you now. | 0:29:43 | 0:29:46 | |
-We'll see you tomorrow. -OK. | 0:29:46 | 0:29:48 | |
Only four players left as we move on to the final question. | 0:29:48 | 0:29:52 | |
And only one player has four points, and that is Craig... | 0:29:52 | 0:29:56 | |
..of course it isn't! LAUGHTER | 0:29:56 | 0:29:58 | |
And that is Jo. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:29:58 | 0:30:02 | |
Question number five. | 0:30:04 | 0:30:07 | |
Let's reveal the impossible answer. | 0:30:25 | 0:30:28 | |
It's B, Gustave Flaubert. | 0:30:31 | 0:30:35 | |
He wasn't a physicist, he was a writer. | 0:30:35 | 0:30:38 | |
He wrote Madame Bovary. | 0:30:38 | 0:30:40 | |
Jo and Craig, I'm sorry, we'll have to see you tomorrow. | 0:30:40 | 0:30:46 | |
Jo, so close. | 0:30:46 | 0:30:49 | |
It is what it is. | 0:30:49 | 0:30:52 | |
That means it's between Megan and Anne. | 0:30:52 | 0:30:55 | |
Let's reveal the right answer. | 0:30:56 | 0:30:59 | |
It's Henri Becquerel! | 0:31:02 | 0:31:05 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:31:05 | 0:31:07 | |
A point to you, Anne, which means you're on the four points, | 0:31:07 | 0:31:10 | |
and congratulations, | 0:31:10 | 0:31:12 | |
you have the chance to grab the last place in today's final alongside Dan and Gerard! | 0:31:12 | 0:31:16 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:31:16 | 0:31:19 | |
Huge, huge cheers from the !mpossible family, Anne, | 0:31:22 | 0:31:25 | |
everyone's happy you're down here. | 0:31:25 | 0:31:27 | |
-How are you feeling? -Well, I'm happy I'm down here too. | 0:31:27 | 0:31:29 | |
-Everyone's happy! -I've been working towards it for ages. | 0:31:29 | 0:31:32 | |
You have, you have. And, finally, the hard work has paid off. | 0:31:32 | 0:31:36 | |
Remind me who's going to be watching at home? | 0:31:37 | 0:31:39 | |
There's my partner, John, and my children in various parts of the country, | 0:31:39 | 0:31:44 | |
One in London and one in South Wales, and three grandchildren, | 0:31:44 | 0:31:48 | |
-and quite a lot of friends. -So, plenty of support out there. | 0:31:48 | 0:31:51 | |
-Absolutely. -So, | 0:31:51 | 0:31:53 | |
you can add another £500 to today's prize pot which already stands at | 0:31:53 | 0:31:58 | |
£900, thanks to Dan and Gerard. | 0:31:58 | 0:32:02 | |
Of the remaining topics, which are Books & Literature and Sport, | 0:32:02 | 0:32:08 | |
which would you like to go for? | 0:32:08 | 0:32:11 | |
I'll go for Books & Literature. | 0:32:11 | 0:32:12 | |
OK. Books & Literature it is. | 0:32:12 | 0:32:15 | |
I'm going to reveal nine answers. | 0:32:17 | 0:32:19 | |
They are... | 0:32:19 | 0:32:22 | |
And the first half of the question... | 0:32:36 | 0:32:38 | |
Which Bronte novel... | 0:32:39 | 0:32:42 | |
Five of those answers are not novels by a Bronte. | 0:32:42 | 0:32:46 | |

Persuasion. | 0:32:56 | 0:32:58 | |
And why are we going for Persuasion? | 0:32:59 | 0:33:01 | |
Jane Austen. | 0:33:01 | 0:33:03 | |
You think Persuasion is by Jane Austen, | 0:33:03 | 0:33:05 | |
and therefore an impossible answer. | 0:33:05 | 0:33:07 | |
Is it? | 0:33:07 | 0:33:09 | |

Is Under The Greenwood Tree an impossible answer? | 0:34:32 | 0:34:35 | |
APPLAUSE Yes, it is, and it's by Thomas Hardy. | 0:34:39 | 0:34:43 | |
£500 added to the prize fund which now stands at £1,400. | 0:34:43 | 0:34:48 | |
The question is, will you be playing for that money in today's final? | 0:34:48 | 0:34:53 | |
You need to give me the right answer when I reveal the whole question. | 0:34:53 | 0:34:58 | |
Remember, the next best player from that round, who was Megan... | 0:34:58 | 0:35:01 | |
..there she is, is waiting to steal your place in the final | 0:35:02 | 0:35:06 | |
if you give a wrong answer. | 0:35:06 | 0:35:09 | |
The full question is... | 0:35:09 | 0:35:12 | |

It is! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:35:35 | 0:35:37 | |
-Congratulations, Anne. -Thanks. -Well done. | 0:35:37 | 0:35:40 | |

Go and take your place. | 0:35:43 | 0:35:45 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:35:45 | 0:35:49 | |
For the rest of you, I'm afraid that victory today proved impossible, | 0:35:51 | 0:35:55 | |
but we'll see you all tomorrow. | 0:35:55 | 0:35:58 | |
But for Dan, Gerard and Anne, it's time for the final. | 0:35:58 | 0:36:02 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:36:02 | 0:36:05 | |
Dan, Gerard and Anne, there's £1,400 in today's prize pot. | 0:36:07 | 0:36:12 | |
Only one of you can win that money and get the chance to face the £10,000 question. | 0:36:12 | 0:36:17 | |
You're each going to start with ten lives. | 0:36:17 | 0:36:21 | |
Questions are on the buzzer. | 0:36:21 | 0:36:23 | |
Get one right and you knock a life off both your opponents. | 0:36:23 | 0:36:26 | |
Buzz and get one wrong, you lose one of your own lives. | 0:36:26 | 0:36:30 | |
However, some of the questions are impossible. | 0:36:30 | 0:36:34 | |
If you think you've spotted one of those, | 0:36:34 | 0:36:36 | |
all you have to do is buzz in and say, "impossible". | 0:36:36 | 0:36:40 | |
That'll be double trouble for your opponents. | 0:36:40 | 0:36:42 | |
They'll both lose two lives. | 0:36:42 | 0:36:45 | |
But if you say a question is impossible when it isn't, | 0:36:45 | 0:36:49 | |
or give any other answer, it's you who will lose the two lives. | 0:36:49 | 0:36:54 | |
You ready? Good luck. | 0:36:54 | 0:36:57 | |

APPLAUSE | 0:39:34 | 0:39:37 | |
Gerard, you're today's winner with £1,400. | 0:39:39 | 0:39:43 | |
But you could be leaving with a whole lot more if you can answer | 0:39:43 | 0:39:47 | |
the £10,000 question. | 0:39:47 | 0:39:49 | |
Now, you've been here once before, and you won £1,400. | 0:39:49 | 0:39:52 | |
Whatever happens, | 0:39:52 | 0:39:54 | |
you'll be leaving us after this show | 0:39:54 | 0:39:56 | |
because you only get two attempts at the £10,000 question. | 0:39:56 | 0:39:59 | |
I'm going to show you nine answers, and then ask you a question. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:04 | |
Three of the nine answers are correct. | 0:40:04 | 0:40:07 | |
And if you can find them all within ten seconds, you win that £10,000. | 0:40:07 | 0:40:11 | |
There's your good news. The less good news is that three of those answers are wrong. | 0:40:11 | 0:40:18 | |
Pick any of those and you won't win the £10,000. | 0:40:18 | 0:40:21 | |
The bad news is three of the nine answers are impossible. | 0:40:21 | 0:40:25 | |
Give me any of THOSE answers and you lose the £1,400. | 0:40:25 | 0:40:30 | |
Today's £10,000 question, I hope it's a good one for you, | 0:40:30 | 0:40:34 | |
it's on geography. | 0:40:34 | 0:40:37 | |

Here are your nine answers. | 0:40:39 | 0:40:42 | |
And you're looking for... | 0:40:54 | 0:40:57 | |

And your time starts now. | 0:41:02 | 0:41:04 | |
Zambia... Uganda... | 0:41:04 | 0:41:08 | |
And I'm going to gamble on Rwanda. | 0:41:08 | 0:41:11 | |
If those three are right, | 0:41:15 | 0:41:18 | |
you'll win £10,000. | 0:41:18 | 0:41:22 | |
Let's start with Zambia. | 0:41:22 | 0:41:25 | |

We need Uganda to be an African country in the Commonwealth. | 0:41:48 | 0:41:54 | |
Is Uganda a right answer? | 0:41:54 | 0:41:57 | |
APPLAUSE It is. You're going well, Gerard. | 0:42:02 | 0:42:06 | |
-So far. -Those were the two you seemed confident in. | 0:42:07 | 0:42:11 | |
-Yeah. -Rwanda you said was a gamble. | 0:42:11 | 0:42:13 | |
Yeah. There's another at least one more that I think it could be, | 0:42:13 | 0:42:18 | |
I just had to make an impulsive decision. | 0:42:18 | 0:42:21 | |
OK. If that impulsive decision was the right one, | 0:42:21 | 0:42:26 | |
you're going to go home £10,000 richer. | 0:42:26 | 0:42:29 | |
Is Rwanda an African country in the Commonwealth? | 0:42:29 | 0:42:35 | |

-It's genuine. -It's real money. -It is! | 0:42:55 | 0:42:58 | |
And there's genuinely 10,000 of them. | 0:42:58 | 0:43:03 | |
You must be absolutely delighted! | 0:43:03 | 0:43:05 | |
-Over the moon. -The impossible answers that you managed to avoid... | 0:43:05 | 0:43:09 | |
..Suriname, Guatemala and Bali, not in Africa. | 0:43:10 | 0:43:14 | |
-Gerard, you're leaving the show with £10,000! -Oh, wow! | 0:43:14 | 0:43:19 | |
-CHEERING -Thank you! | 0:43:19 | 0:43:22 | |

the hospital radio's going to get some new equipment. | 0:43:24 | 0:43:27 | |
