Episode 14 Impossible

Hello, I'm Rick Edwards, and this is !mpossible, day 14.

Welcome to !mpossible,

the quiz where the questions aren't impossible,

but some of the answers always are.

They are not just wrong - they couldn't possibly be right.

For example, if I were to ask...

..the right answer is Zayn Malik, the wrong answer is Liam Payne,

but Ed Sheeran was never in One Direction,

so that is the impossible answer.

Hoping to get lots of right answers whilst dodging

those pesky impossible answers are 30 players.

-Hello, players!

-Hello, Rick.

Hello. They are with us throughout the series,

competing not only for a daily prize pot of up to £1,500...

Whoo!

..but also for a shot at the £10,000 question!

-Whoo!

-This exclamation mark is filled

with 10,000 shimmering pound coins.

At the end of every show, our winner faces one final question.

And here it is - today's £10,000 question.

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

Alan, yesterday, you came close...

-It was close.

-..to that £10,000.

Wasn't my subject, let's be honest.

So I made sure I had enough money to take me all the way to Butlins

in November for the darts championships.

Oh, I love some darts, Alan.

Anne, what kind of subject areas would you pick if you could?

-Classical music.

-Classical music.

I've played in an amateur symphony orchestra for over 60 years.

Really? What do you play, Anne?

-Viola.

-And the same orchestra?

-The same orchestra.

-I assume you're the longest-standing member.

-I am.

-And I assume you're also the best musician.

No, no, not that.

-Oh, OK.

-I avoid making a loud noise in the wrong place.

Yes, that's the thing in an orchestra, you can sort of hide,

-can't you?

-Indeed.

OK. Let's crack on.

You'll face five multiple choice questions, each with three answers.

The right answer scores you a point.

The wrong answer scores you nothing.

But if you choose the impossible answer,

it's a bit of a disaster.

That immediately knocks you out of today's show,

and you'll have to try again tomorrow, which is the last day.

After five questions, the highest scorer

gets the first chance to bag a place in today's final.

Do answer as quickly as you can, because if there's a tie,

whoever locked in their answers the fastest will qualify.

Good luck, everyone.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

Here's your first question.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's C, Juventus. A point to everyone who went for Juventus.

-Jane.

-I don't know why, I thought there was an Ajax Milan,

but I'm probably wrong.

Let's hope Lazio was a drink or something.

-OK.

-Not a football club.

Let's hope that Lazio is a drink.

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

I'm afraid it's A, Ajax.

That's a Dutch team.

Lazio, not a drink yet, but maybe we can mix one up later, Jane.

-Thank you!

-We'll see you tomorrow.

Let's move on to question two.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's A, Emma.

So, the majority of you get a point.

However... Bim.

Still smiling.

If I don't smile, I'll cry!

Heard of any of those books?

Yes. I have actually heard of Emma and Northanger Abbey.

OK. So you went with one that you'd heard of in the hope that it isn't

-an impossible answer.

-Yes.

-Elliott.

-To be honest, it was a bit of a guess.

OK.

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

It's B, Far From The Madding Crowd, which was written by Thomas Hardy,

I'm afraid, Elliott.

Dan, Kerry, Elliott, we say goodbye to you.

We'll see you tomorrow.

Question number three.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's 5ive.

A point to all of you.

-Ash.

-I did have a millisecond of thinking, unusually for me,

and realised that Steps maybe had girls in it, so...

You think you've played it well and you're safe.

I'm hoping that Steps had some female singers.

Penny, directly behind you,

is hoping that Steps did not have any female singers.

No, I've never heard of B, 5ive, and

I knew Boyzone, obviously, were boys, and, thinking about it,

Ash is absolutely right.

There are females in Steps, so,

bye!

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

I'm afraid Steps was the impossible answer, which means,

Penny and Anne, we're going to have to lose you.

We will see you tomorrow.

Question number four.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's Aer Lingus, and the majority of you get a point.

Craig. Are we about to lose you?

I'm pretty sure that Ryanair is an Irish airline.

-Pretty sure.

-Bim.

Well, I've only taken Ryanair, I've never been on Aer Lingus, so...

Let's hope you haven't given the impossible answer, which was...

..Loganair, which is a Scottish airline, meaning Craig and Bim,

you avoided it successfully. Well done.

Question number five.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's Caroline of Brunswick.

A point to all of you.

-Guy.

-I was just trying to think of a queen with a bent nose, and I just

couldn't think of anyone, so I went for the middle one.

LAUGHTER

I like the way your mind works, Guy.

Doesn't necessarily give the right answer.

-No.

-But it makes me smile.

-Thank you.

-Vinessa. You went for Sophie of Wurttemberg.

-Mm.

Sophie's a nice name, so...

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

I'm afraid it's C, Sophie of Wurttemberg.

She was not a British queen, she was a queen of the Netherlands, meaning,

Vinessa, Simon and Elaine...

..we'll have to say goodbye to you.

We'll see you tomorrow.

So, at the end of that round, four of you got a maximum five points.

Linda, Megan, Alan and Kurtis,

all on five points,

but the quickest to lock in their answers across the round...

..was Alan. APPLAUSE

Congratulations, Alan.

You're on a bit of a streak.

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

-Alan.

-Hey, Rick.

You're on a bit of a roll, here.

Yes, I liked it so much down here yesterday...

Thought, "Why not come down again?"

Why not horrendously guess lots of questions and get it right?

So, this, as you know, is your chance to put up to £500

into today's 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.

They are Books, Famous People, Art, and Film.

-It's nice to be up here and have the first choice.

-Mm-hm.

I mean, I'd do sell books and I read a lot of books,

but the classics usually escape me.

-OK.

-Art, to me, is comics,

and it's probably not going to be Marvel characters.

-Don't think so.

-Erm, I think...

I've really always been a big film fan, so I'll go for Film.

OK. I'm going to reveal nine answers.

And the first half of the question...

Which actor in the 2016 film Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice...?

You do know I run a comic shop, right?

I do. It feels like...

-..that's worked for you, pretty nicely.

-It's fate, finally.

Five of those answers are impossible

because they are not in Batman v Superman.

Each impossible answer you manage to eliminate will add £100

to today's prize pot. Where would you like to start?

I think we can probably rattle through these.

We'll probably rattle through it quite well.

Let's start with...

-Matt Damon.

-Let's lock Matt Damon in.

Is Matt Damon an impossible answer?

Yes, it is. £100 to the prize pot. APPLAUSE

-Who shall we knock out next?

-So we'll have Silver Linings Playbook,

and The A Team, Bradley Cooper.

Let's lock in Bradley Cooper.

Is Bradley Cooper an impossible answer?

Yes, he is. APPLAUSE

£200 into the prize pot.

-Who next?

-We'll have the voice of Groot in Guardians Of The Galaxy

and Triple X, Vin Diesel.

Vin Diesel. I like the fact you're showing off, Alan.

-I am Groot.

-It's good.

Is Vin Diesel an impossible answer?

Yes, it is. APPLAUSE

£300 in the prize pot.

Another Marvel boy, the Incredible Hulk himself and Fight Club,

-Edward Norton.

-Is Edward Norton an impossible answer?

He is. APPLAUSE

Not the current Incredible Hulk, that is...

Eric Bana. Gagging for this.

Get rid of the last one, will you?

Finally, we'll just go for the one film, Alfie, the remake, Jude Law.

Is Jude Law an impossible answer?

He is. APPLAUSE

With some ease, put £500 into today's prize pot.

-Crossed finger.

-Are you going to be playing for that money and a shot at

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

I'm about to reveal the second half of the question.

I'm now looking for the right answer.

Give that to me, and a place in the final is yours.

Give a wrong answer...

First of all, I'll pick myself up off the floor,

and then I will pass over the chance to the next best player

in that round. And I can reveal that was Kurtis.

-Won't hold my breath.

-So, Kurtis is waiting to steal,

but not that eagerly.

Let's reveal the full question.

Which actor in the 2016 film Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice...

..plays the role of Lex Luthor?

From lots of things, Jesse Eisenberg.

Is Jesse Eisenberg the right answer?

Of course it is. APPLAUSE

Of course it is. Not getting that wrong.

Just...just for fun, Alan, go on, do the others.

Henry Cavill was Superman, Ben Affleck, Batman,

Jeremy Irons was Alfred Pennyworth, the butler.

Absolutely right. Take your place in the final.

Thank you. APPLAUSE

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

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

Here's your first question.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's C, Porridge. A point to all of you.

-Chris.

-In my mind, any of them could have been impossible, so...

I just hit any button.

-Bim?

-Well, I've heard of The Good Life.

I wasn't around here in the 1970s.

Let's hope you've avoided the impossible answer.

You have. The impossible answer was On The Buses.

That was an ITV sitcom.

So you escape, Bim and Chris.

Moving on to question number two.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's A, ugli fruit.

Everyone who went for ugli fruit gets a point.

-Ash.

-I thought, well, I've eaten a papaya and it's not a citrus fruit.

So you are saying that you think ten people might have given

the impossible answer?

Yeah, sounds very unlikely now that you come to say it like that.

Maybe I'm the one that's wrong.

Well, let's reveal the impossible answer.

It's C, papaya.

Papaya is not a citrus fruit.

You remembered that correctly, Ash.

We lose ten of you in one go.

See you all tomorrow.

Not even halfway through Round Two,

and we're down to eight players.

Question number three.

Let's reveal the right answer.

C, Katy Perry.

Points to Ash, Craig and Helen.

-Sarah.

-I'm fairly sure Nelly Furtado's Canadian,

so fingers crossed.

OK. Let's find out. Let's reveal the impossible answer.

Nelly Furtado is Canadian. You're right, Sarah.

You survive and move on to question four.

Well, let's reveal the right answer.

It's C, Agamemnon.

You were the only person to get that right, Ash.

-You get a point.

-Wow.

Let's reveal the impossible answer.

It's B, Aeneas, who was a Trojan warrior, not a Greek warrior.

That means five of you, Kurtis, Chris, Sarah, Parin, and Annie,

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

So the three surviving players - Ash, Craig and Helen -

are all tied on three points.

How on earth has this happened?!

Your...

I don't think your odds are

ever going to get better than this, Craig.

Question number five.

All gone for a different answer.

-Ash?

-Yes, I just thought the question was the other way round.

Craig. Anything you'd like to add?

No.

-Helen?

-I did a bit of thinking on this because I watched the trailer

for the new film and I feel like I remember one of the girls had

a really stupid name, and I thought it might be Tatty.

So... they might change that, cos it's weird.

It's more than the others have offered.

Let's first reveal the impossible answer, and lose one of you.

Oh!

It's C, Nancy.

Nancy was an Amazon, not a Swallow.

-Oh, well.

-I'm sorry, Craig.

-Always tomorrow, eh?

-We'll see you then.

Whoever has given the right answer will come down and play the grid.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's A, Tatty.

Well done, Helen. Tatty, in the original film and books,

was called Titty, so congratulations,

you have the chance to grab a place in today's final alongside Alan.

APPLAUSE

Helen, you must be feeling pretty good to have just survived a round

that only one other person survived.

That was tough.

But you've emerged unscathed, and ready to play another grid.

Yeah, love the grids.

You do love the grids, Helen.

You have the chance to add another £500 to today's prize pot,

which already stands at £500, thanks to Alan.

You can also take a huge step towards playing

the £10,000 question.

Of the three remaining topics, which do you fancy?

I'm going to go for Books.

OK, Books. Going to reveal nine answers.

And the first half of the question...

Which detective, created by Agatha Christie...?

I was hoping for some Harry Potter.

You know? But I can work with it, I think.

OK, I'm glad you can work with it.

We know that five answers are impossible because they aren't

characters created by Agatha Christie.

For each one you get rid of, you add £100 to the prize pot.

Where would you like to start?

Let's take out Sherlock Holmes.

Is Sherlock Holmes an impossible answer?

It is. APPLAUSE

Of course, created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

-Who next?

-This is where it gets a bit tricky.

I definitely know a few that are Agatha Christie,

but I don't recognise the other names, so...

I'll go Father Brown.

And why are you going for Father Brown?

Would a Father be a detective on the side?

Maybe too busy with the spiritual work.

-Yeah. I mean, he should be.

-Yeah.

But let's see. Is Father Brown an impossible answer?

It is. APPLAUSE

Father Brown does do a bit of detective work on the side,

but he was created by G K Chesterton.

Oh. OK.

Hmm.

I'll go Jane Tennison.

So, Jane Tennison.

Much more of a guess, really.

Is Jane Tennison an impossible answer?

It is. APPLAUSE

Jane Tennison was created by Lynda La Plante.

She's in Prime Suspect.

Let's go Tuppence Besford.

Can't say it.

Any thoughts on Tuppence Beresford?

It's an odd name, but just stood out to me.

Might as well choose it.

It is an odd name, but is it an impossible answer?

Tuppence Beresford WAS created by Agatha Christie.

One more answer, please, Helen.

OK. Philip Marlowe.

-Thinking?

-Yeah.

This name actually seemed familiar to me, and I didn't know if that was

because it is a famous Agatha Christie character or because it's

a character in something else,

so I kind of just wants to rule it out one way or another,

because that will hopefully help me.

OK.

Is Philip Marlowe an impossible answer?

It is. APPLAUSE

Philip Marlowe was created by Raymond Chandler.

Let's see if you're going to be playing for that money and a shot at

the £10,000 question in today's final.

When I reveal the second half of the question, I want you to tell me

the right answer. Find it, you're in the final with Alan.

Give me a wrong answer, and the next best player, who was Ash,

gets the chance to steal your place in the final.

There is still one impossible left up there on the grid.

If you give me that, you will be eliminated.

The full question is...

Which detective created by Agatha Christie has a crime-solving partner

called Tommy?

I didn't really know a lot of them had, like, sidekicks.

I mean, there is... There's three, now, that I know are correct.

I'm going to guess Poirot.

As far as I know, he worked alone, but I have no real idea.

Is Hercule Poirot the right answer?

It's not, Helen, I'm sorry. That is a wrong answer.

Meaning that Ash, we throw to you.

So...

I'm going to guess Tuppence Beresford.

Is Tuppence Beresford the right answer?

It is! APPLAUSE

Sorry, Helen.

Your place in the final has been nabbed by Ash.

-Sorry!

-The impossible that you missed was Lord Peter Wimsey,

who was a Dorothy L Sayers creation.

APPLAUSE Congratulations, Ash.

Please take your place in the final alongside Alan.

So, just one place left in today's final alongside Alan and Ash,

and Helen, as the last player standing who hasn't given an

impossible answer, you start this round on your own.

All you have to do to play another grid

is to get a single question right.

However, if you give an impossible answer, everyone is back in.

-Are you ready?

-Sure!

Here's your first question.

How do you feel?

I've heard of Cannon and Ball, so that's what I pressed.

OK. Let's reveal the impossible answer.

It's Peters and Lee, so you avoided that.

Peters and Lee were a singing duo.

Yeah.

If Cannon and Ball is the right answer,

you'll be going straight through to play another grid.

Let's reveal the right answer.

It's Cannon and Ball! APPLAUSE

Yeah!

Congratulations, Helen.

You have another chance to grab a place in the final

-alongside Alan and Ash.

-So many grids!

So, Helen, after a gripping Round Three,

here we are. Exactly the same as before -

you can add another £500 to today's prize pot which already stands at

£900, and also be a step closer towards playing

the £10,000 question.

Of the remaining topics, Art and Famous People,

which would you like to go for?

-Let's go Art.

-You did do two years of art history.

Yeah. I was listening for some of it, so maybe.

OK. Your nine answers are...

Cool. Yeah.

The first half of the question is...

Which painting by Rembrandt...?

-OK.

-Five of them are impossible

because they aren't paintings by Rembrandt.

Where would you like to start?

Let's say Girl With A Pearl Earring.

Any idea who that's by?

-That's a Vermeer.

-OK.

Is Girl With A Pearl Earring an impossible answer?

It is. £100 added to the prize pot. APPLAUSE

As you say, it's a painting by Vermeer.

OK. The Potato Eaters.

-Who's that by?

-I think it might be a van Gogh.

Yeah, I think it is.

Or something around that time.

Or possibly not, but I'm pretty sure it's not a Rembrandt, so...

-Hey-ho.

-Hey-ho.

Is The Potato Eaters an impossible answer?

APPLAUSE It is van Gogh.

Nice.

Three more impossible answers remain on the grid.

Let's do The Return Of The Prodigal Son.

Does it sound like a Rembrandt?

I'm not sure. I mean...

Prodigal son story - don't remember many religious works by him.

Let's see if you've picked an impossible answer.

Unfortunately not. That is a painting by Rembrandt.

The Laughing Cavalier.

-Who do you think that's by?

-I've done all the ones I'm sure of, so...

OK.

Is The Laughing Cavalier an impossible answer?

-It is!

-Yay!

-APPLAUSE

That is by Frans Hals.

One more answer from you, please, Helen.

I'll go Olympia.

Is Olympia an impossible answer?

It is! APPLAUSE

Olympia is by Manet.

£400 added to the prize pot which now stands at £1,300.

But will you be playing for that money and a shot at

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

The last player to be eliminated was Craig...

-(You'll be fine.)

-..who is waiting to steal your place in the final.

-Craig.

-Mm-hm.

-This is your big chance.

My only chance, I fear.

It might be your only chance, Craig.

So, Helen, there is one impossible answer left on the grid.

If you give that, you will be eliminated from today's show.

The full question is...

Which painting by Rembrandt

can be seen at the National Gallery in London?

Oh.

I was actually there recently.

There's one that really...

Like, I really recognise the name,

I think it's a really famous painting that could definitely

be there, but maybe it's someone else's really famous painting.

I'm going to go for The Blue Boy.

Is The Blue Boy the right answer?

Oh!

-Oh!

-It isn't the right answer.

You've just knocked yourself out of today's show.

Somebody has got to take your place in the final,

and we're going to start by throwing the question to Craig.

I know nothing about art.

You do surprise me, Craig(!)

However,

there was one other answer that just kind of was jumping at me,

and that's The Night Watch.

OK. Is The Night Watch the right answer?

-Oh.

-No.

But it is by Rembrandt.

I knew that.

I imagine you know that it's currently hanging at the Rijksmuseum

-in Amsterdam.

-Yeah.

The next best player, way back in Round Two,

-was Sarah.

-No!

Yes.

I'm going to go Belsh... I can't say it.

Belshazzar's Feast.

Would you like to lock in Belshazzar's Feast?

No, actually, I'm going to go for Bathsheba At Her Bath.

I'm going to... I'm going to kick myself when it's the wrong answer.

No, I'm going to go for Bathsheba At Her Bath.

OK.

Is Bathsheba At Her Bath the right answer?

No. It's in the Louvre in Paris, Sarah.

The next best player...

..was Parin.

So I've been to the National Gallery,

and I've seen the Rembrandt portraits there.

I've taken a picture of one and I've taken a picture of the detail,

as well, but I haven't got the foggiest what it was.

But if...if this answer is what I'm thinking, it's Belshazzar's Feast.

Is Belshazzar's Feast the right answer?

It is! APPLAUSE

Congratulations, Parin.

Come and take your place in the final alongside Ash and Alan.

Sorry! So sorry!

-Very cruel for you, Sarah.

-I've...

I've just been saying that you should always go with

your first instinct, stick with it.

-And that's why!

-Oh, Sarah.

Never mind!

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

We'll see you tomorrow for our last day.

But for Alan, Ash, and Parin, it's time for the final.

APPLAUSE

Alan, Ash and Parin, we got there in the end.

There's £1,300 in today's prize pot.

Only one of you can win that money,

and get the chance to face the £10,000 question.

Now, Alan, you won a final yesterday, you got through to

the £10,000 question, you managed to hold on to £1,200, but

you didn't get to release the money from the massive exclamation mark.

I'm hoping, but I've got to get there first.

You have to get there first. Ash, you've been in a final before,

didn't get through to the £10,000 question.

Parin, first time in a final.

-Yeah.

-Out of nowhere.

I still can't believe it.

You will each start with ten lives.

Questions are on the buzzer.

Buzz and get one right, you knock a life off both your opponents.

Buzz and get one wrong, you lose one of your own lives.

However, some of the questions are impossible,

which is to say there is no answer, the question is illogical,

it makes no sense, it's preposterous. For example,

for which film did Alan Rickman receive his first Oscar nomination?

Alan Rickman never received an Oscar nomination,

so that is an impossible question.

If you think you've spotted one of those, all you have to do is buzz in

and say impossible, and that will mean double trouble

for your opponents, as they will both lose two lives.

But if you say that a question is impossible when it isn't,

or give any other answer to an impossible question,

it's you who will lose the two lives,

so you need to tread carefully.

Good luck.

Which Canadian born singer had a 2015...?

-Parin.

-Justin Bieber.

..had a 2015 UK number one single with the song Love Yourself?

It is Justin Bieber. Ash and Alan, you lose a life.

Who wrote the 2009 Man Booker Prize-winning novel Wolf Hall?

-Alan.

-Hilary Mantel.

It is Hilary Mantel.

Who played Jonathan Pine in the 2016 BBC drama series The Night Manager?

-Ash.

-Tom Hiddleston.

It was Tom Hiddleston.

In which year of the 1980s did Margaret Thatcher resign

as Prime Minister? Parin.

False. Er, impossible.

I will accept that, Parin. You said impossible just in time.

Ash and Alan, you lose two lives.

Which London Underground line runs between

Brixton and Walthamstow Central? Alan.

Impossible.

It's not impossible. It's the Victoria line.

You lose two lives, Alan.

In A Nightmare On Elm Street,

what is the name of the character who preys on teenagers...?

-Alan.

-Freddy Krueger.

..who preys on teenagers in their dreams?

It is Freddy Krueger.

Prior to 2012, when had the Olympics last been held...?

-Alan.

-1962.

..when had the Olympic last been held in London?

It was 1948.

Which British monarch succeeded John II?

-Ash.

-Impossible.

It is impossible.

There has not been a British king called John II.

Alan, you're down on one life.

The Roman settlement of Verulamium

was on the site of which present-day English...?

-Ash.

-St Albans.

..site of which present-day English city?

It was St Albans.

That was your last life, Alan.

Unlucky - you're eliminated.

In which decade of the 20th century was James Joyce's Ulysses

first published?

-Ash.

-1920s?

It was the 1920s.

In which year did Denmark adopt the euro as its national...?

-Parin.

-Impossible.

-It is impossible.

It still uses the krone.

Which Adele studio album features the song Love Me Like You Do?

-Parin.

-Impossible.

It is impossible.

It's not an Adele song, it's an Ellie Goulding song.

Ash, you have one life remaining. Parin's still on three.

Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon married which future king in 1923?

-Ash.

-George VI.

It was George VI.

Ash, you're on one. Parin, you're on two.

Which US city is the main setting for TV drama The Wire?

-Parin.

-Impossible.

It's not impossible, Parin.

It's Baltimore,

meaning that you lose your last remaining two lives.

Huge commiserations to Alan, and especially to Parin,

a cruel way to go out, but we will see you next time.

APPLAUSE Very well done though, Ash,

you hung on in there. It's time to face the £10,000 question.

So, Ash, after a very exciting final, you are today's winner,

with £1,300.

That's lovely, but you could be leaving with a whole lot more if you

can answer the £10,000 question.

You want to go on this trip down the Silk Route, right?

Yes, that's right.

So that's what we're going to try and achieve here.

-OK.

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

Three of the nine answers are correct.

If you can find them all within ten seconds, you win that £10,000.

That is 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 £10,000.

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

If you give me any of those answers, you will lose the £1,300 as well.

OK. Here it is.

Today's £10,000 question.

I hope it's fallen kindly for you.

It's on Food And Drink.

-Well, I like eating.

-There we go, then.

Good luck.

Here are your nine answers.

And you're looking for wine-growing regions that are in France,

and your time starts now.

Champagne...

..Chardonnay, and Burgundy.

Let's start with champagne.

Is champagne a wine-growing region in France?

Yes, it is. APPLAUSE

Edging closer to those 10,000 pound coins.

You also said Burgundy.

-Yeah.

-Is Burgundy a right answer?

It is! APPLAUSE

Now just one answer -

we need Chardonnay to be a wine-growing region in France.

It isn't, Ash, I'm so sorry.

-It's an impossible answer.

-Yeah.

Chardonnay is a variety of grape.

The right answer you were looking for was Medoc.

Of course it was.

The other impossible answers were Merlot,

and Sauvignon, also varieties of grape.

I'm afraid you've won nothing, this time, Ash,

but everyone gets a second chance on this show.

Let's hope you get another shot at the £10,000 question

on our last show tomorrow. APPLAUSE

So, Ash didn't win today, but we will see her next time.

This has been !mpossible, the quiz where anything is possible.

Goodbye.
