0:01:54 > 0:01:58So, without further ado, let's meet tonight's first team.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00APPLAUSE
0:02:00 > 0:02:03- It's lovely to see you, Ainsley. - Hello, Gaby.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07- Tell us all about Bobby, then. - Well, Bobby's 19 months old.- Yeah.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09I got him from a friend of mine,
0:02:09 > 0:02:10and he sent out this text
0:02:10 > 0:02:12with a beautiful picture of this little one.
0:02:12 > 0:02:16And is he a bit like you? Because you're quite competitive.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- He can shake a little bit, Gab, yeah.- The competitive thing.
0:02:19 > 0:02:20He likes to be competitive,
0:02:20 > 0:02:23whether he's disciplined in that competitive area or not,
0:02:23 > 0:02:27- I don't know.- Are you?- I can be!
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Ainsley Harriott and Bobby, everyone!
0:02:29 > 0:02:32APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:02:32 > 0:02:34- Hello, Joe.- Hello.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Oh, look! I'm sorry,
0:02:37 > 0:02:40you're like a cartoon dog... Hello!
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Right, now, tell me all about him.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44This is Taylor, he's a therapy dog,
0:02:44 > 0:02:45and what that means is
0:02:45 > 0:02:47he goes round to old people's homes,
0:02:47 > 0:02:49he goes round to schools and things like that
0:02:49 > 0:02:52and he actually helps with people that have perhaps been ill
0:02:52 > 0:02:54or that have had a dog and can't have a dog any more,
0:02:54 > 0:02:56it gives them something to look forward to.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00So they get to stroke them, have a pat - do what you've just been doing, really.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Well, very best of luck. Thank you very much!
0:03:03 > 0:03:05APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:03:05 > 0:03:10Right. Hello, Fiona. Now, introduce us to your beautiful dog.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12This is Frazzle, and he's a very versatile dog,
0:03:12 > 0:03:17he's done several dog sports. Agility and flyball as well.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19And have you ever been in the fastest team?
0:03:19 > 0:03:23He has won at the British Flyball Championships with our team.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25I think that deserves a round of applause.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27APPLAUSE
0:03:27 > 0:03:30That was Ainsley, very happy that you're on his team. Wonderful.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34- Ainsley's team, everyone! Good luck.- Thank you!
0:03:34 > 0:03:36APPLAUSE
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Now, more competitors.
0:03:39 > 0:03:43- Team Jules and, obviously, the captain, Jules.- Lovely to see you.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Now, tell me all about your beautiful boy here.
0:03:47 > 0:03:48Well, this is Iolo,
0:03:48 > 0:03:52- he's a two-and-a-half-year-old black Labrador and we...- Up here, come on.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55We got him when we were living in Wales, where I spent most of my life,
0:03:55 > 0:03:58so we called him Iolo - it means handsome prince in Welsh.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02- So there he is.- Oh, look at you. He is very handsome.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06- Tell me what he's like.- He is your classic sort of cartoon dog.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10You know, chases cats, chews beef bones, chases pheasants,
0:04:10 > 0:04:12but he is such a lovely little fella.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15He's utterly ruined, but occasionally he does what he's told.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19I hope he does tonight. Look at him, give him a round of applause.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21- APPLAUSE - Look at him.
0:04:21 > 0:04:25- OK. Hello, Karen. - Hello, Gaby.- And who...
0:04:25 > 0:04:29Come on, show everybody your beautiful eyes. Go on, turn round.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31There you go. Look at these eyes on this dog.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34Now, tell us all about your beautiful dog.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Jasmine, or Jazzy, is the same as a therapy dog.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42- Same thing?- We go to a local school in Portsmouth
0:04:42 > 0:04:45and she sits and listens to children read to her.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49And we also go to a local hospital and two local nursing homes.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- Do you see a big difference with your patients?- Definitely.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Their eyes light up and they wait for it every week.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57- Good luck to you as well. Good luck. - Thanks, Gaby. Thank you.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00APPLAUSE
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Right, tell me all about...
0:05:03 > 0:05:05- This is Rhea.- Hello, Rhea.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09She's a six-year-old retriever, she's my second-favourite blonde.
0:05:09 > 0:05:14Who's your first? Oh, he says all the right things.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16And the winner tonight - Team Jules! Yeah!
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- APPLAUSE - I wouldn't go that far.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21So what's she like at home?
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Oh, well, she's an angel, really.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26She's never any trouble, all she wants to do is please.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30You'll see through the show, she just keeps staring into my eyes.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33- Really?- She's... Well, she's lovely. Kiss me. Look.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35CHEERING
0:05:36 > 0:05:39- All right, good luck to Team Jules! - Thank you very much.
0:05:44 > 0:05:45Now, introductions over,
0:05:45 > 0:05:47we're ready for our first game of the evening.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50It's time for a spot of tennis now,
0:05:50 > 0:05:52but instead of using a court,
0:05:52 > 0:05:53we're off to our swimming pool.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01In this game, it's all about balls.
0:06:01 > 0:06:02Our owners have to throw,
0:06:02 > 0:06:06or should I say serve, a tennis ball into the pool
0:06:06 > 0:06:08as far as they can.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Their dogs must then swim out to collect the ball
0:06:10 > 0:06:14and then bring it back to them so they can put it into the basket.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16And they keep on going until their time is up.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19The team with the most balls in the basket wins the game,
0:06:19 > 0:06:21it's that simple.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25- I think I'm safe in saying that both dogs like water.- They like water.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Phew, that's lucky. OK.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Now we flipped a coin to see who's going to go first and second.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32So, Frazzle, you ready? Very excited to go.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Off you go and get yourselves ready. There we go.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Now, our water expert Ellie is standing in the pool
0:06:37 > 0:06:40to make sure everything goes swimmingly.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43Give it some welly, Ellie.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45CHEERING
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Thank you very much, Ellie. OK, good luck, Frazzle. Are you ready?
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Ready.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53On your barks, get set, go.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55HE BARKS
0:07:00 > 0:07:02So, welcome to the competition, I'm Matt.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Off with our first game of the series,
0:07:04 > 0:07:06it's called New Balls Please.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Now, here on Top Dog,
0:07:08 > 0:07:13we make sure that each challenge is suited to the dogs taking part.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Frazzle is a Duck Tolling Retriever,
0:07:15 > 0:07:17a breed that loves retrieving and water -
0:07:17 > 0:07:19a perfect combination for this game.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Good lad!
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- Two balls in the basket.- Go.
0:07:25 > 0:07:26CHEERING
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Good boy!
0:07:29 > 0:07:30He's smiling.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Good boy.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34CHEERING
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Ainsley's getting very excited.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Ainsley's loving this.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44CHEERING Good boy!
0:07:44 > 0:07:45Now, to win this game,
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Frazzle is going to have to bring back the most balls
0:07:48 > 0:07:50within the time limit.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53If you get one more, you've got about ten seconds left.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56Ready, ready, ready? You have to get it in the basket, remember.
0:07:56 > 0:07:57Quickly, now, Frazzle!
0:07:57 > 0:08:01CHEERING
0:08:01 > 0:08:04BUZZER
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Now I'm not sure he got that ball back in time,
0:08:06 > 0:08:08we're going to have to wait to find out.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12A really determined effort from pet dog Frazzle there,
0:08:12 > 0:08:15with some exceptionally fast retrievals -
0:08:15 > 0:08:17he didn't miss a single ball.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19He's certainly going to be a tough act to follow.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23Congratulations, you collected four balls. Well done!
0:08:23 > 0:08:26APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:08:26 > 0:08:29I think, there's no doubt about it, Jazzy's ready.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32On your barks, get set, go.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Go boy!
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Don't forget, long throws, please.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Ready? Get it, Jazza.
0:08:47 > 0:08:48Come on, Jazzy!
0:08:48 > 0:08:49Now, as a therapy dog,
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Jazzy's more used to being read stories than swimming,
0:08:52 > 0:08:55but it seems the Collie in her can't wait to round up those balls.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Come on, then!
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Go on, Jazza! Quick. Good girl!
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Do you want to go back?
0:09:07 > 0:09:11- Come on, Jazz!- Come on!
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Wow, just look at those eyes!
0:09:16 > 0:09:18She didn't take them off the ball for a second,
0:09:18 > 0:09:22she goes in for ball number three.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Oh, no, Jazzy's dropped the ball.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26She's going to have to go back and get it
0:09:26 > 0:09:28for Karen to put it in the basket,
0:09:28 > 0:09:29or they're not going to get a point.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33- Go on, Jasmine, get the ball! Quick! - Come on, Jazzy!
0:09:33 > 0:09:34Quick, Jazzy!
0:09:37 > 0:09:38Yes!
0:09:38 > 0:09:41Oh, Team Jules really getting behind Jazzy and Karen there.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44BUZZER
0:09:45 > 0:09:47So, after a speedy start,
0:09:47 > 0:09:49Jazzy suffered a set back there
0:09:49 > 0:09:51when she dropped the ball back down the ramp.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52She eventually got it back,
0:09:52 > 0:09:55but the ball has to be back in the basket to count.
0:09:55 > 0:09:59Now, Fiona and Frazzle collected four balls.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Karen and Jazzy collected...
0:10:02 > 0:10:04- three balls. - AUDIENCE: Aw!
0:10:04 > 0:10:07It's just that one at the end of the nose!
0:10:09 > 0:10:13Which means the winner of tonight's first game is Team Ainsley!
0:10:13 > 0:10:16APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:10:19 > 0:10:23So, while the four of them go off for a towel-down and a blow-dry,
0:10:23 > 0:10:27let's watch something that I cannot wait to see -
0:10:27 > 0:10:32let's enjoy Frazzle and Jazzy doing the wet-dog, shaggy shake.
0:10:32 > 0:10:37# Shake your groove thing Shake your groove thing, yeah, yeah
0:10:37 > 0:10:39# Show 'em how to do it now
0:10:39 > 0:10:44# Shake your groove thing Shake your groove thing, yeah, yeah
0:10:44 > 0:10:47# Show 'em how to do it now. #
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Now, we want to make sure
0:10:49 > 0:10:51all the dogs on this show are safe and happy,
0:10:51 > 0:10:54so let's meet five experts who will help us do just that.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Reena Patel is our resident vet
0:10:58 > 0:11:01and senior clinician at her local practice.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Roy Dyer is our canine consultant,
0:11:04 > 0:11:07he's been training dogs for over 50 years.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09Kristina Glover is a veterinary-approved
0:11:09 > 0:11:11pet behaviour counsellor.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14David Pugh trains dogs to swim and save lives
0:11:14 > 0:11:15and, alongside him,
0:11:15 > 0:11:17is his apprentice Ellie Bedford.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22OK, it's time now for our team captains
0:11:22 > 0:11:24to battle it out in our second game.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27So, Jules has got his dog, Iolo, and Ainsley has got his dog, Bobby.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30- THE DOGS BARK - Now, the rules are extremely simple!
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- Go on, you tell him, Bob! - I'm going to keep going!
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Each owner has to knock down
0:11:36 > 0:11:38- as many coconuts as possible... - DOG BARKS
0:11:38 > 0:11:41..within the time limit.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45However, they will only be given one ball each.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Thank you.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Take your balls, gentlemen. So the number of throws
0:11:50 > 0:11:52depends on how quickly the dog retrieves it.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55- Are you ready?- I'm ready. - You're going first, aren't you?
0:11:55 > 0:11:57- As we'll ever be. - Let's play Canine Coconuts.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59APPLAUSE
0:12:04 > 0:12:07On your barks, get set, go!
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Sit!
0:12:09 > 0:12:12- Come on, Iolo, here, here, here.- One coconut down.- Good boy, good boy.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15Here.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19CHEERING
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Now, Jules was worried that Iolo wouldn't do as he was told,
0:12:22 > 0:12:23but so far, so good.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Good boy! CHEERING
0:12:28 > 0:12:31Get on, yellow.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33Ah, right, looks like I might have spoken too soon.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Make sure you stay behind this line.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Good boy, good boy, here!
0:12:38 > 0:12:40CHEERING
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Ainsley's trying to put him off.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Ooh, a bit of cheating from Ainsley there!
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Steady now!
0:12:49 > 0:12:52Now, they only get one ball, so the faster Iolo brings it back,
0:12:52 > 0:12:56the more coconuts Jules can knock down to score big.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Do those count?
0:12:57 > 0:13:00I don't know, that wouldn't happen in the funfair.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03- BUZZER - Your time's up. Well done!
0:13:03 > 0:13:06A very solid performance there from Iolo,
0:13:06 > 0:13:08our two-and-a-half-year-old handsome prince.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10He needed a bit of encouragement at times,
0:13:10 > 0:13:13but I think Jules is going to be very happy with that.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- Well done, you got six! - CHEERING
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Well done, Iolo, well done, Iolo. Brilliant.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20OK, Ainsley.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22You've got six to beat, Bob.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25- Good luck. - SHE LAUGHS
0:13:25 > 0:13:26OK, are you ready?
0:13:26 > 0:13:30On your barks, get set, go.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Well, Bobby's really quick off the mark there -
0:13:34 > 0:13:36this could be a great round for Ainsley.
0:13:36 > 0:13:37Bobby, come on, come on.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42- Come on.- Here, Bobby, here, Bobby!
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Young Bobby's only 18 months old,
0:13:44 > 0:13:46so he could be a little unpredictable
0:13:46 > 0:13:48and, by the looks of it, hard to control.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Bobby! Come on, Bobby! This way.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- Yes!- Right, we're back in action. Come on, Bobby!
0:13:58 > 0:14:01Come on, Bobby, come on.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03No, not the coconut!
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Bobby, no!
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Bobby's more interested in the coconuts!
0:14:07 > 0:14:10He does live with a chef, so I suppose that's to be expected.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16Oh, no, I think Ainsley's getting a bit frustrated now.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22- Yes!- Well, as long as he can try and remember to stay calm
0:14:22 > 0:14:24and speak with plenty of authority, he should be OK.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Cheat, Ainsley!
0:14:27 > 0:14:31- Bobby! Bobby, come on.- Oh, no! He's dropped the ball again.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33That dog just can't resist a coconut.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35LAUGHTER
0:14:41 > 0:14:43BUZZER
0:14:43 > 0:14:45So Bobby didn't quite get the hang of that,
0:14:45 > 0:14:48but I think I can safely say he's got some great footwork
0:14:48 > 0:14:50and he thoroughly enjoyed himself.
0:14:52 > 0:14:53Well done, mate.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55APPLAUSE
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Fancy a football-playing dog.
0:14:58 > 0:15:02Ah, well done! You've got four coconuts!
0:15:02 > 0:15:07Yay! Come on! Bobby! Four coconuts! Yeah!
0:15:07 > 0:15:10- OK, so you scored six.- We have.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13You scored four, so it's 1-1 as we stand.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15All still to play for.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17- Well done, Iolo!- Cheers, mate.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21Now, all of tonight's contestants are here to support Sport Relief
0:15:21 > 0:15:25which aims to get as many of us as possible up on our feet
0:15:25 > 0:15:28and raising money for people who really need our help
0:15:28 > 0:15:31both here in the UK and across the world's poorest communities.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34And this year's Big Weekend is just around the corner.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40The first ever Sport Relief Games
0:15:40 > 0:15:43take place from Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd March.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48There are hundreds of running, swimming
0:15:48 > 0:15:50and cycling events right across the UK.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54And with plenty of different distances,
0:15:54 > 0:15:56there's something for everyone.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59We ran the Sport Relief Mile! Whoo!
0:16:00 > 0:16:04What's more, lots of mile events are officially dog-friendly,
0:16:04 > 0:16:08so you and your pooch can get sponsored to take part.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10DOG HOWLS
0:16:12 > 0:16:17To enter an event and join the fun and games, visit...
0:16:17 > 0:16:19APPLAUSE
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Please do get involved and help change lives,
0:16:24 > 0:16:26all over the world for the better.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30So, with one apiece, it's all to play for in our next game.
0:16:30 > 0:16:31CHEERING
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Now, this game is called Hot Spot Hound,
0:16:34 > 0:16:37and it's a test of understanding and obedience.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40The dog has to move around the floor and sit on the spot
0:16:40 > 0:16:42as suggested by the owner.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Each spot has a different value
0:16:44 > 0:16:47and the winner will be the dog racking up the most points.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49I'm a good dog. I just scored 25 points.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53Now, the spot only counts once, so if a dog returns to the same spot,
0:16:53 > 0:16:56no additional points will be awarded.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58So let's get ready now for Hot Spot Hound!
0:16:58 > 0:17:00APPLAUSE
0:17:04 > 0:17:07OK, Joe, Taylor, you ready?
0:17:07 > 0:17:10- Yeah.- On your barks, get set, go!
0:17:10 > 0:17:13MUSIC: "The Pink Panther Theme" by Henry Mancini
0:17:13 > 0:17:15So, here goes Taylor, one of our therapy dogs.
0:17:15 > 0:17:16On the red. Go back...
0:17:16 > 0:17:21Now, he's stopped just shy of the mat there. Let's have another go.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Ready? Come on, let's go.
0:17:24 > 0:17:29- Good boy. Wait.- He just needs to stay there, and they'll get 40 points.
0:17:29 > 0:17:30BELL CHIMES
0:17:30 > 0:17:32- Well done, Taylor!- Well done!
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Now, Taylor spends his working life in care homes, being cuddled,
0:17:35 > 0:17:38which doesn't sound like a bad way to spend the day!
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Right, now, can he do it again?
0:17:40 > 0:17:44- On that bed.- Not quite getting the hang of this, are you, Taylor?
0:17:44 > 0:17:45Quick, quick, quick! Move on!
0:17:48 > 0:17:52- You can go across if you want to take her.- Yes, stop!
0:17:52 > 0:17:55Right, he's on the mat. No, he's off again. Oh, he's just on.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58Great. That's another 20 points.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01- Good effort there from therapy dog, Taylor.- Oh, well done!
0:18:01 > 0:18:02BEEPING
0:18:02 > 0:18:03APPLAUSE
0:18:08 > 0:18:10OK, Jim now for Team Jules.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12You've got 60 points to beat.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14- Are you ready?- I'm ready.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16On your barks, get set, go!
0:18:18 > 0:18:22Now, this is six-year-old Rhea, who is Jim's pet Labrador Retriever.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Now, of course, most dogs aren't allowed
0:18:24 > 0:18:28to sit on the rugs at home, so maybe she's getting a bit confused.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31Jim choosing to take Rhea over to the mat himself this time.
0:18:31 > 0:18:36Now, if she can stay, that's 35 points. Well done, Rhea.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40Jim's using the same tactic. Will it work again this time?
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Now, stay, stay.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47Yes, this seems to be a winning formula for the pair.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Rhea's off on her own this time.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52She seems to have got the hang of it now.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55Sit! Good girl, on there, sit. Sit! Sit!
0:18:55 > 0:18:56Stay!
0:18:58 > 0:19:00CHIME
0:19:00 > 0:19:02That's another 30 points and a very happy Rhea.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04APPLAUSE
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Thank you, Rhea.
0:19:05 > 0:19:06Well played.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14Well done, Jim and Rhea. You scored 105 points.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18Well done! Good girl, eh?
0:19:18 > 0:19:21And Joe and Taylor scored 60, which is still good.
0:19:23 > 0:19:27So Team Jules is the winner of Hot Spot Hound!
0:19:27 > 0:19:30CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Now, that means that Team Jules are now in the lead
0:19:33 > 0:19:37by two games to one, and that 2-1 lead of theirs will earn them
0:19:37 > 0:19:42a very handy time advantage in our final, deciding game.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45Yes, it's time for The Bark Off!
0:19:51 > 0:19:54Now, in front of our teams, there's some classic British landmarks.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57Each team must make their way from Land's End to John O'Groats.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01Excuse me, I just have to step over Sherwood Forest.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03This is a relay race.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05The course will be completed, one dog at a time.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Now, if an obstacle is refused or incorrectly cleared,
0:20:08 > 0:20:10then they'll hear this sound.
0:20:10 > 0:20:11BUZZER
0:20:11 > 0:20:15And they cannot move until they hear this sound.
0:20:15 > 0:20:16CHIME
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Thank you. The team that completes the course
0:20:19 > 0:20:21in the fastest time will take overall victory
0:20:21 > 0:20:24and be in with a chance of going through to the Grand Final.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Team Jules are in the lead,
0:20:26 > 0:20:29which means that Team Ainsley have the pressure of going first.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32And because they're lagging behind two games to one, they'll be
0:20:32 > 0:20:36starting their run with 15 seconds already added to the clock.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39It's now time to play The Bark Off.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44- Good luck, Team Ainsley, OK? You ready?- Yep.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47On your barks, get set, go!
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Now, 15 seconds already on the clock,
0:20:49 > 0:20:52but Frazzle's off to a confident start,
0:20:52 > 0:20:53racing across Tower Bridge
0:20:53 > 0:20:57and now rushing headlong through Barking Tube.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59On to the Magic Roundabout at Swindon
0:20:59 > 0:21:02for the three-second sit and stay.
0:21:02 > 0:21:03CHIME
0:21:03 > 0:21:04On to Sherwood Forest.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Now, he's knocked a pole down there,
0:21:06 > 0:21:08no penalties though, and both of them need
0:21:08 > 0:21:10to go through the Train Tunnel.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14A quick hike over Mount Snowdon and he moves on to weave his way
0:21:14 > 0:21:16through the Royal County Down Golf Course.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21And you can tell that Frazzle is seasoned in agility course work.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24Some excellent weaving there.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Now, it's time for a boat ride on the Mersey.
0:21:26 > 0:21:30He needs to stay put for the duration of the sail.
0:21:30 > 0:21:31SHIP'S HORN
0:21:31 > 0:21:35# So ferry, 'cross the Mersey
0:21:35 > 0:21:37# Cos this land's the place I love... #
0:21:37 > 0:21:38Beautifully done.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42Nearly at the end. A leap over Hadrian's Wall.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Scale the Forth Bridge and on to John O'Groats.
0:21:45 > 0:21:46Frazzle made that look pretty easy
0:21:46 > 0:21:49and gets Team Ainsley off to a great start.
0:21:49 > 0:21:50Next up is Taylor.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52Come on, go under the bridge.
0:21:52 > 0:21:56Bit of a slower amble over Tower Bridge there from Taylor,
0:21:56 > 0:21:57but he is nine years old.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Go on, Taylor! Go on, darling.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Tiny Taylor fitting snugly under the Barking Tube sign
0:22:02 > 0:22:05as he makes his way through the tunnel.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10CHIME
0:22:10 > 0:22:11Perfect sit and stay!
0:22:11 > 0:22:13A little treat to say well done.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15Taking this small fence at Sherwood Forest
0:22:15 > 0:22:18and it's onto that place that I can't really say the name of.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Good boy! Come on!
0:22:24 > 0:22:27Well, for such a little dog, he's making easy work of Mount Snowdon.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Whips through that golf course.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Come on, good boy! Yay!
0:22:34 > 0:22:35CHEERING
0:22:35 > 0:22:38Ah, now, looks like those little legs aren't enough
0:22:38 > 0:22:39to get him on board the ferry.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Wait, Taylor.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44# So ferry, 'cross the Mersey... #
0:22:46 > 0:22:48Good boy. Good boy.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52Nice, leisurely float across the Mersey for Taylor,
0:22:52 > 0:22:53taking in the view.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Good boy.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57What a good boy.
0:22:57 > 0:22:58Yes!
0:22:58 > 0:23:01Oh!
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Now, one last little jump over a Taylor-sized Forth Bridge
0:23:03 > 0:23:05and he's finished.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07So, Ainsley and Bobby have got it all to play for,
0:23:07 > 0:23:10as they take up the final leg.
0:23:10 > 0:23:11Oi, oi, oi!
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Interesting tactics there from Ainsley,
0:23:14 > 0:23:16but Bobby seems to be falling for it.
0:23:19 > 0:23:23Now, is he going to stay on this roundabout for three seconds?
0:23:23 > 0:23:27Stay! Stay, Bob! Stay! Stay!
0:23:29 > 0:23:30You're amazing!
0:23:30 > 0:23:32- CHIME - Yes! Good boy!
0:23:35 > 0:23:36Come here, come here!
0:23:36 > 0:23:39I'm not sure who's enjoying this course more, Ainsley or Bobby!
0:23:39 > 0:23:42No, Bob, wait! No, Bob, don't lick me!
0:23:42 > 0:23:44LAUGHTER
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Up, up, up, up, up!
0:23:47 > 0:23:50Ooh!
0:23:50 > 0:23:51Right, time for the weave.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54I don't think Bobby's attempted this before.
0:23:54 > 0:23:55But he's doing a great job.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57Come on. Come on, darling! Come on, darling, yes!
0:23:59 > 0:24:01APPLAUSE
0:24:01 > 0:24:02Come on!
0:24:02 > 0:24:04In here! In, in, in!
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Go on. In!
0:24:06 > 0:24:09In! Get in the boat, Bob!
0:24:09 > 0:24:13OK, helping hand there for Bobby. Now, is he going to stay on board?
0:24:13 > 0:24:14BUZZER
0:24:14 > 0:24:17That's once out. One more and he's going to have to move on.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Stay in the boat. Stay! Bobby!
0:24:19 > 0:24:20No, Bobby's not playing ball.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22That will cost him a bit of time.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25And this one, no, no, no, come here, Bobby. Come on!
0:24:25 > 0:24:28Over we go.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Well done, Bobby!
0:24:30 > 0:24:31BEEPING
0:24:35 > 0:24:40Well done, Team Ainsley. You did that in five minutes and 32 seconds.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Well done, guys! Whoo-whoo!
0:24:42 > 0:24:46OK, so, Team Jules, you know what you have to beat.
0:24:46 > 0:24:50- Five minutes 32 seconds. Are you ready?- I'm ready.- OK.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53On your barks, get set, go!
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Now, as the blue team were in the lead
0:24:55 > 0:24:56going into this round,
0:24:56 > 0:25:00they start with no time penalty on the clock.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Very confident first jump over Stonehenge
0:25:03 > 0:25:05by six-year-old Lab, Rhea.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Followed by a nice stroll over the bridge.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Up, up!
0:25:11 > 0:25:12Sit, stay.
0:25:14 > 0:25:15Look at her!
0:25:15 > 0:25:16CHIME
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Beautifully patient sit and stay there,
0:25:18 > 0:25:21followed by a quick leap over Sherwood Forest.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23Good speed through the train tunnel
0:25:23 > 0:25:25and the longest name in the UK.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Oh, good time!
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Rhea conquered Mount Snowdon with real ease.
0:25:31 > 0:25:32Get in.
0:25:32 > 0:25:33Off to Liverpool now.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36How is she going to fare on a sail across the Mersey?
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Stay...
0:25:39 > 0:25:42# So ferry, 'cross the Mersey
0:25:42 > 0:25:43# Cos this land's... #
0:25:43 > 0:25:45Come on, then, Rhea.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47Get over!
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Last two jumps now.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Get over. Good girl! Rhea!
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Get through, go on!
0:25:53 > 0:25:54And she's finished.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57Rhea, no trouble at all crossing the Forth Bridge.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Now, it's therapy dog Jazzy's turn.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Seems to know exactly where she's going
0:26:03 > 0:26:05as she speeds off without Karen!
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Jazzy! Come on. Up there, wait! Sit!
0:26:10 > 0:26:12Good girl! Wait.
0:26:14 > 0:26:15CHIME
0:26:15 > 0:26:16CHEERING
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Through the tunnel and she's off again.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23Karen needs to speed up!
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Oh, she's coming back to get you.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29Let's do some weaving. Ready, through here. Come on.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34Yes!
0:26:34 > 0:26:35Weaving like an absolute pro!
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Jazzy's really pushing forward for Team Jules!
0:26:42 > 0:26:45Stay, stay! Ready?
0:26:45 > 0:26:49# So ferry, 'cross the Mersey... #
0:26:49 > 0:26:50Ah, pretty quick ferry ride there.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52She's taking a bit of Hadrian's Wall with her.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54But she's through the finish.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56A great round for Jazzy and Karen.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Let's hope that Jules and Iolo can keep it up.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02Oh, dear. Not the best start from Iolo.
0:27:02 > 0:27:03He misses Land's End!
0:27:04 > 0:27:08Here, here. Up, come on, here, good boy! Good boy!
