Episode 18 Pressure Pad

This is Pressure Pad. On this floor two teams will go

head-to-head across a series of general knowledge games

in an attempt to outwit each other

and leave thousands of pounds richer.

Who will keep their cool, and who will feel the heat?

It's time to take the pressure.

APPLAUSE

Welcome to the quiz, where to win you have to keep your cool

in the most demanding quizzing arena around, the Pressure Pad.

Two teams will compete across a series of head-to-head games

with the aim of getting as many of their team-mates

into the final as possible.

Whichever team wins the final, will have the chance to

play for the jackpot, which currently stands at £3,000.

So, you know how things work, let's meet the teams.

I'm Janice.

This is Marie.

It isn't, it's Melissa! LAUGHTER

-The clue's in the name.

-Yeah, OK. This is Melissa. This is Marie.

-Hi.

-This is Hugh.

-Hello, John.

-And this is Martin.

-Hi, John.

Your team captain does not know who you all are!

How do you all know each other?

Oh, good. Have you guys done pub quizzes together before?

My father and Alan have, and they're probably equally, equally good.

-You guys don't think you're the strong points?

-No.

-Well, we'll see who's going to sink or swim.

-LAUGHTER

And if you need help, they can teach you.

Yay! All right,

our first head-to-head is called Deadline.

-I hope so.

-Good luck, Patrick.

-Thank you.

OK, it's time to decide who is going to play first.

And the colour is...

blue.

So, Marie, you can decide if you're going to go first or second.

I think we will go first.

-You're going to jump right in there.

-Yep.

OK, Marie and Patrick,

So the category is Sport and you need to step on when you see...

Your job is to correctly answer one question in each category,

but there's a twist. The first player will set the time

for the second player to beat.

The player who takes the longest will lose a life.

If you're standing in the wrong section, you'll lose a life.

Your time will start when I finish reading the question.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Christine, here's your question.

Go.

OK?

Pretty confident?

I'm not sure if it's Devon or Cornwall.

I don't know where I am, actually, now.

-You think it's that section.

-Yes.

All right. Let's see if you're correct.

Pressure Pad, is she right?

You're absolutely right.

It's South Devon.

OK. Pressure Pad, cut the map!

Martyn.

Go.

Being from Wales, I should know this.

-All right. What do you think the answer is?

-Cardiff.

OK. Pressure Pad, is it the right section?

Yes, it is.

And it was Cardiff, you're absolutely right.

Pressure Pad, cut the map!

Christine.

Go.

Oh, I'm not sure about this one. Er...

I know it's Cambridge, but... I think... I don't know.

OK, time's up. You're in that section.

-Is this a guess?

-Yes.

-OK. Let's see if Christine's guess

is correct.

Pressure Pad.

It's correct!

It was Cambridge.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Martyn.

Go.

I'm going for the home of golf, John.

-(SCOTTISH ACCENT)

You're absolutely right,

and it was St Andrews.

Pressure Pad, cut the map!

Christine.

You're in the right section.

It wasn't Brighton,

-Oh.

OK.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

The sections are getting smaller.

Where do you think it is?

Haven't got a clue.

-Haven't got a clue. You're not a shopper?

Pressure Pad, is this guess from a man who doesn't shop

correct or incorrect?

It's incorrect.

There you go.

And it's in Chester. So Martyn, you've lost a life.

One more mistake like that and you're out of the game.

Martyn, you will go first this time.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Martyn.

Go.

You just walked right to it.

I like my Yorkshire puddings.

Ah, so you do know what it is!

He's saying it's Yorkshire pudding -

is it right, Pressure Pad?

You are in the right section, and yes, it is Yorkshire pudding,

traditionally served as a starter.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Christine, your question.

Go.

Er, I know it's in Ireland - well, I think it's in Ireland.

I'll go here.

This is Ireland.

I love your deduction.

"It's in Ireland, so I'll step on Ireland."

Pressure Pad,

is she in the right section?

Yes, you are.

And it's Dublin.

All right. Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Martyn, your question.

Go.

I'm on the road, so I should know.

and it's at junction six of the M6.

-Four seconds.

There?

-OK?

-OK.

-Can't move now.

-I know.

Pressure Pad, is she correct?

I don't want to look.

You're in the wrong section!

Which section was it, Pressure Pad?

-It was the one below!

-Oh!

And it was in Manchester, so you've lost a life, Christine.

That means we go to a decider.

The next person to make a mistake is out of the game.

Christine, you go first.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Christine.

-Go.

-Right. It's in Liverpool.

Er...

It's going to be here.

All right.

Fingers crossed - is she correct, Pressure Pad?

You are correct.

It is Liverpool.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Martyn.

Go.

Which city do you think it might be?

-I've got a feeling it's Glasgow, but...don't know.

-OK.

Pressure Pad, he says Glasgow,

in Scotland!

Correct.

Pressure Pad, cut the map!

Christine.

Go.

Here? I think this is it.

I think... It's London, isn't it, Lord's?

-Or somewhere round here.

-OK.

Pressure Pad, is she right or wrong?

You're correct.

Home of the MCC, in St John's Wood, Northwest London.

All right, Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Martyn.

Go.

Where do you think it is?

It's in Portsmouth, somewhere like that.

All right. Pressure Pad, let's see if he is correct or incorrect.

Portsmouth. You are correct,

and a museum dedicated to the ship was opened in 2013.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Christine.

Go.

Oh. I think it's in Tintagel,

which is down in Cornwall, down here.

-So we'll go here.

-All right.

Tintagel, and is she in the right section,

Pressure Pad?

Absolutely correct.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Martyn.

Go.

Being Welsh, I've got to go straight to this one - it's Anglesey.

All right.

Pressure Pad, is it Anglesey?

It is,

and you are in the right section.

Pressure Pad, cut the map.

Christine.

Go.

Well, that's another Ireland one,

but...I'm not sure whether it's in this side

or... I'll go over here.

Again, it's another guess. I've never been to Ireland.

OK. If it's wrong, you'll have lost your second life.

Pressure Pad, is she in the right section?

No, you're not.

Christine, you were so close.

It's in the Southeast part of Northern Ireland,

so the section should have been that one.

So unfortunately, Christine, that means you have lost both your lives,

you are out of the game. Martyn, you have stood the pressure

of the Pressure Pad, you are going to the final!

APPLAUSE

Well, that's it for the head-to-heads.

-Janice, you have three players left to help you.

-I do.

-Are you feeling confident?

-Absolutely.

-OK. Nick!

-One player.

-Yes. Quietly confident.

All right. Pressure's on. Janice and Nick,

please come and join me on the Pressure Pad!

APPLAUSE

-Hello, Janice.

-Hi, John.

-Hi, Nick.

-Hello there.

-So would it be fair to say you're nervous?

-No, I'm fine.

-OK.

-Nervous, Nick?

-Less nervous than at the start, so...

-All right,

Janice and Nick, please take your positions on the Pressure Pad!

APPLAUSE

So here's how the final works.

Each team will be given four multiple-choice questions.

The first team to answer all four questions correctly

will go on to play for the jackpot of £3,000.

Janice, you have the most players in the final,

you have the advantage of going first.

First question is...

-I would go Dublin.

-Yeah.

It's a guess.

-Dublin.

-You're locking in Dublin.

-Confident?

-It's 50-50, yeah.

Well, it is 50-50, so you're clearly confident!

But is it the right 50? Pressure Pad,

is she correct?

Incorrect - it's Sydney.

So play passes to Nick.

Nick, your first question.

It's 29,000 feet, so what's that?

-It's the eight.

-Go on, then. If you say so.

So you've locked in 8,848 metres.

Pressure Pad, is it correct?

It's absolutely right.

APPLAUSE

OK, next question.

You went right to it.

-Read the book?

-Yes.

-Seen the movie?

-A long time ago.

All right. Pressure Pad, is it correct?

It is correct.

APPLAUSE

Next question.

Was it...

I don't really know, Nick.

It's not those two, though, is it?

Well, Vivien Leigh's American.

I'm guessing.

Go for Maggie Smith.

-More your thing.

-Maggie Smith.

-Maggie Smith, OK.

Over to Alan.

-Educated guess?

-Educated guess.

Let's see if you're right. Pressure Pad, is it correct?

Incorrect.

Play passes back to Janice.

My gut feel, cos they change presenters often, is Blue Peter.

-That's my gut feel as well.

-And mine.

Go for it. Go for Blue Peter.

You locked in Blue Peter.

All right. If it's the right answer, you move on to the next question.

If it's incorrect, play goes back to Nick.

Pressure Pad, is Janice correct or incorrect?

It is correct!

It is Blue Peter.

OK, next question.

I know I should know this, with a chemistry degree.

Marie!

I think it's aluminium.

Definitely?

-Go with it.

-Go for it.

You've locked in aluminium.

On Marie's advice.

-Who has a degree...

-I am never going to live this down,

-if this is wrong.

-..in chemistry.

-Yeah.

Pressure Pad, is it aluminium?

It is correct.

APPLAUSE

All right. Next question.

Martyn.

-I only brought you on cos you knew about sport!

-Yeah, thanks.

I'm guessing Chicago.

I don't know it. I know Boston's Red Sox.

-I hope you don't get it wrong.

-Same owner as Liverpool, so...

Chicago.

I trust you!

If this is right,

you'll be going on to play for £3,000. If it's wrong,

-I feel very sorry for you, Martyn.

-Thanks, John.

-Is it a guess?

-Yeah.

The Blues have locked in to Chicago, Pressure Pad.

Is it correct or incorrect?

-It is correct!

-APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Chicago White Sox. Congratulations, Janice,

you have beaten your opponent

and now have the chance to play for the jackpot of £3,000.

Nick, the answer to your question was Angela Lansbury.

Sadly, that's the end of the road.

A big round of applause for the Pink Team, everyone!

APPLAUSE

All right, Janice, well done to you and your team

for making it this far. You are now just one question away

from the jackpot of £3,000.

To win the cash, all you have to do is answer

one final question correctly, but there is a twist.

In a moment, I will show you two categories.

You can decide with your team which category to select.

However, as team captain you must answer the question

without help from your team.

Here are the two categories.

They are:

Archaeologists, or Wildlife.

Wildlife.

-Wildlife. Please.

-OK. You're choosing the category of Wildlife.

Team, I have to tell you, do not confer with each other.

Janice, you have to answer the question on your own.

Here are the six possible answers.

Armadillo. Impala.

Aardvark. Meerkat.

Hyena. Okapi.

The question is...

I'm going along either armadillo or aardvark.

Hyena, that's native, probably.

I ain't got a clue what them two are.

Meerkat...

They're little things, aren't they?

Aardvark.

-Is this a guess?

-This is a complete and utter guess.

OK.

I'm going to go for it.

Sorry, team.

OK. You've locked in Aardvark.

If it is right, you've won £3,000.

If it's wrong, the jackpot will roll over to the next game.

Pressure Pad.

Is Aardvark the correct or incorrect answer?

GROANS

It's not right, it's incorrect.

The correct answer was...

Armadillo!

-Oh!

-Unfortunately that means you and your team

will be leaving without the cash.

But a good team, good fun, and good players.

The jackpot is now increased to £6,000.

Join us next time to see if any team will be lucky enough to win.

Thanks for watching, and don't forget -

-if you can't take the Pressure...

-Stay off the Pressure Pad.

-Goodbye, everybody.

-Goodbye.
