0:02:19 > 0:02:22He is. He looks a lot younger. Like his dad, a lot younger.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- Just like you.- Just like me.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Does he ever get on the back of the bike with you?
0:02:26 > 0:02:30He does sometimes, but he's not so keen on the bike thing.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Welcome, team captain Charley and Ziggy.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34There we go.
0:02:34 > 0:02:35CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Hello, Jenni.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Now tell us about this incredible dog Lillie.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44Well, she's a demo dog on my lecture in animal behaviour,
0:02:44 > 0:02:47so she helps to teach students how to look after dogs, basically.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50- She's also a blood donor. - She's a blood donor?
0:02:50 > 0:02:52That's the thing.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Are there many dogs that do this?
0:02:54 > 0:02:57There's a fair few, but they'd like more.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00It's something that any dog can do as long as they're over 25kg.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02Do they get a cup of tea and a biscuit afterwards?
0:03:02 > 0:03:05They get a nice bowl of food and a nice bandanna to wear home.
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Well, it's wonderful.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09Thank you very much. What a good, good dog you are, Lillie.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Thank you for the lovely service that you do.
0:03:11 > 0:03:12Thank you very much.
0:03:12 > 0:03:13APPLAUSE
0:03:15 > 0:03:18- Adam. Hello, Adam.- Hello.- Hugo. - Yes, this is Hugo.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22- Tell me about Hugo then. - Hugo is four years old.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25He's a miniature wire-haired dachshund
0:03:25 > 0:03:29and he loves nothing more than going for a run.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31- A run.- Yeah.- But not far.
0:03:31 > 0:03:36No, we're training him for CaniX, so he's up to 3.5km at the moment.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41- Walked that dog? - Yeah, he'll walk for 14km as well.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Sorry? How, with those legs, how does he walk for 14km?
0:03:45 > 0:03:48He's just got so much energy. I don't know where he gets it from.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Well, I hope he enjoys tonight. I hope you do as well.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Let's hear it for Team Charley.
0:03:53 > 0:03:54CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- So team captain Matthew from Team Matthew.- Hello.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Hello. Introduce us to your dog.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04This is Wiggie-Wiggie-Woo-Woo HRH Prince of Wiggleness.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08You can call him the Wigster, Mr Wiggles, Wiggie-Wee-Woo-Woo.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11LAUGHTER
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Oh... You... Yes.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Shall we leave it there?
0:04:14 > 0:04:16How was Wiggie when you were in the jungle?
0:04:16 > 0:04:19I don't know whether he missed me as much as I missed him.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21- Did you enjoy yourself? - I had a wonderful time.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24The best thing was coming out of it less afraid than
0:04:24 > 0:04:26when I went in with a whole lot of new friends.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28Do you have fear about today?
0:04:28 > 0:04:30I expect Wiggie to disgrace himself,
0:04:30 > 0:04:33because that's what he does best, really. He's a very wilful animal.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- So he's just like you then, Matthew? - He's just like me.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38- Well, I wish you the very best of luck.- Thank you.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40- Team Matthew.- Thank you.
0:04:40 > 0:04:41CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:04:43 > 0:04:44- Hello.- Hello.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Now this is a very special dog, isn't it, Tanya?
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Yes, he's a cynophobia resistance dog,
0:04:49 > 0:04:53so he works with children that have a morbid fear of dogs.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55He does it once a week.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58We just introduce them slowly to play with the dogs.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00- Can I get down and talk to him down here?- Yes, of course.
0:05:00 > 0:05:01So, what do you do, then?
0:05:01 > 0:05:04We play games and get the children to make them sit
0:05:04 > 0:05:08- so they gradually learn that dogs are safe.- Oh.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11You clever, clever dog. Thank you very much, Tanya and Max.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13CHEERING
0:05:13 > 0:05:18- Hello, Marie. Hello. Introduce us to your dog, please.- This is Blaze.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21- He's a Lakeland cross Jack Russell terrier.- He's like this, "I'm ready!
0:05:21 > 0:05:25"I'm ready!" He looks like he could cope with absolutely anything.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Oh, yeah, he's got a smashing character.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Always full of it, always on the go. He keeps me going.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33He's helped me through an illness a few years ago as well. He was
0:05:33 > 0:05:37there for me, by my side the whole time. Yeah, he's very special.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40- Do you think that bond, that's brought you even closer? - BLAZE WHINES
0:05:40 > 0:05:45Oh, absolutely, I'm so sorry. Was I ignoring you? I'm so sorry.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49We were talking about you, though. OK? We were talking about you.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51- Yeah, our bond's inseparable. - That's so wonderful.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Let's hear it for Team Matthew.
0:05:54 > 0:05:55CHEERING
0:05:57 > 0:06:00So, introductions over, we're ready for our first game of the evening.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Let's bring on our first round of players.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Team Charley have put forward Jenni and Lillie
0:06:05 > 0:06:08and Team Matthew have chosen Tanya and Max.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10So, let's play Duck Down.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Welcome to Duck Down.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Now, the aim of the game is simple - the handler must aim to
0:06:21 > 0:06:25throw the duck into the water in our pool.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28The dog must leap into action to retrieve the duck
0:06:28 > 0:06:32and return it to the handler who then drops it in their box.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35The team that collects the most ducks in the box
0:06:35 > 0:06:37are declared the winners.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Now, we flipped a coin to see who's going first so, Tanya and Max,
0:06:40 > 0:06:42if you'd like to go off and get ready.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Thank you very much indeed.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46And we can now say hello to our canine experts
0:06:46 > 0:06:50standing by in the pool. Give us a wave, Dave.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52CHEERING
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Give it some welly, Ellie.
0:06:54 > 0:06:55CHEERING
0:06:55 > 0:06:58OK, here we go. Time to get the competition under way.
0:06:58 > 0:07:03Good luck, Tanya and Max. On your barks, get set, go.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06So, Max is a cynophobia dog
0:07:06 > 0:07:10and that means he spends time with people who have a fear of dogs.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12He looks a bit hesitant
0:07:12 > 0:07:14but all our dogs are paired up with games that suit them by our
0:07:14 > 0:07:18animal experts and Dave is there for some friendly encouragement.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Well done, Max. That's the first duck down.
0:07:20 > 0:07:24Hopefully that's given him a bit more confidence for the next one.
0:07:26 > 0:07:30Very gentle, Max. Having a think about the water.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34Tanya tells us that she takes Max to the hydrotherapy pool
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- for regular swimming lessons that he loves.- Come on then.
0:07:37 > 0:07:42- Good lad. Good lad.- He's certainly got that shaggy shake down.
0:07:42 > 0:07:43Ready? Steady? Go!
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Well, he's wagging his tail for the next one
0:07:47 > 0:07:49so he's clearly enjoying himself.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53Max doesn't want to make people wet.
0:07:55 > 0:07:56CHEERING
0:07:56 > 0:08:00Some more encouragement from Dave and that looks like duck number three
0:08:00 > 0:08:03but is he going to get it back in time?
0:08:03 > 0:08:04BEEPING
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Oh, well done, Max.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12A much more gentle approach to this game than we'd seen before
0:08:12 > 0:08:15but, with a little help from his friends, Max brought home the goods.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19APPLAUSE
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Congratulations, Max. He'd like to take it gently.
0:08:22 > 0:08:27- So, Max, very well done. OK, are you ready?- Ready.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29On your barks, get set, go.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Now it's Lillie's turn.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33A lot of other Labradors we've seen on this series,
0:08:33 > 0:08:37they absolutely love to fetch and retrieve, especially in the water.
0:08:42 > 0:08:46Lillie giving us a masterclass in that old favourite, the doggy paddle.
0:08:46 > 0:08:47A great technique.
0:08:49 > 0:08:50Go get it. Good girl.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56That's duck number two. She's going pretty fast.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58Lillie's a very strong swimmer.
0:08:58 > 0:09:04Her legs are working really hard under the water to power her home.
0:09:04 > 0:09:05Go get it, go on.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09CHEERING
0:09:11 > 0:09:14A super-quick turn from Lillie.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- That'll save her extra time getting that duck back.- Lillie, go on.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21CHEERING
0:09:23 > 0:09:24Come on.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30There's that interesting front paw paddle again.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33She looks a bit like me in the pool on holiday.
0:09:33 > 0:09:3515 seconds.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39She's only got a few seconds left. Will she get that duck back in time?
0:09:39 > 0:09:41CHEERING
0:09:41 > 0:09:42BEEPING
0:09:42 > 0:09:44So Lillie raced through that game,
0:09:44 > 0:09:48pulling on all her Labrador skills to doggy paddle her way to the finish.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Well done.
0:09:50 > 0:09:55Let's just remind ourselves that Max managed to get two,
0:09:55 > 0:09:58so well done to you, Max.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02And Lillie managed to get five. Congratulations.
0:10:02 > 0:10:03CHEERING
0:10:03 > 0:10:06So, that means, after our first game,
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Team Charley leap into the lead.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Now, before we go on, let's just take a moment to appreciate
0:10:12 > 0:10:14man's best friend in all their finery.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18It's time for us to enjoy Lillie and Max's wet dog shaggy shake.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21MUSIC: "Shake Your Groove Thing" by Peaches & Herb
0:10:21 > 0:10:23# Shake your groove thing, yeah, yeah

0:10:26 > 0:10:31# Shake your groove thing Shake your groove thing, yeah, yeah

0:10:34 > 0:10:37As ever, we want to keep all of our dogs happy
0:10:37 > 0:10:40and we've assembled five wonderful experts to do just that.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Reena Patel is our resident vet
0:10:44 > 0:10:47and senior clinician at her local practice.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Roy Dyer is our canine consultant.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52He's been training dogs for over 50 years.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Kristina Glover is a veterinary-approved
0:10:55 > 0:10:56pet behaviour counsellor.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00David Pugh trains dogs to swim and save lives.
0:11:00 > 0:11:01And alongside him
0:11:01 > 0:11:03is his apprentice Ellie Bedford.
0:11:05 > 0:11:09It's time for our second game, which involves our dogs taking orders
0:11:09 > 0:11:10but not the ones you'd expect.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14Our celebrity team captains will be treated to a king-sized meal
0:11:14 > 0:11:20by a dog-sized waiter in our special Sport Relief Top Dog Diner.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22The dog must run across to the buffet
0:11:22 > 0:11:26and retrieve as many food items as possible in the allotted time.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Team Charley have nominated Adam and Hugo
0:11:29 > 0:11:33and Team Matthew have chosen Marie and Blaze.
0:11:33 > 0:11:38So, please, take your positions and we can play Dog's Dinner.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47OK, Charley, welcome to the Top Dog Diner.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Any food allergies, anything you don't like?
0:11:49 > 0:11:52No, pretty much everything. I like everything on there.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54OK, we'll see what he can do.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58- Are you ready?- I think so. - On your barks, get set, go.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Here goes Hugo.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Oh, dear. He's smelt something which has sent him the wrong way.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09That's not a great start. Adam just reminding him of the job at hand.
0:12:09 > 0:12:10He's back on the right scent.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14Now, that is a big toy for a small dog but he's managed to pick it up.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17Come on. Good boy.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Go on, then, next one.
0:12:19 > 0:12:24- Go on. Hugo.- What does he keep smelling over there?
0:12:24 > 0:12:27Whatever it is, it's clearly more interesting than our game.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- Go on. Good boy.- He likes the egg. - He likes the egg.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Come on.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36He's just going, "I'll just take my close-up now."
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Now, dachshunds are known for having strong teeth and a powerful jaw
0:12:39 > 0:12:43but that doesn't help much if you can't fit the egg in your mouth.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Is he going to pick it up and get it back in time?
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Come on, you can get it.
0:12:47 > 0:12:48BEEPING
0:12:48 > 0:12:50No, he's just missed the timer. Bad luck, Hugo.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54Seeing him carry that egg across! Thank you very much indeed.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58Let's see how many things. Here we go.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00I think we've got a feeling we know.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04So, I can reveal the bottle of pop was brought over
0:13:04 > 0:13:06so you got one point.
0:13:06 > 0:13:07CHEERING
0:13:07 > 0:13:09Well done.
0:13:10 > 0:13:15Poor Hugo. He had an eggs-tremely tough time with that game.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19- OK, Matthew, you... No food allergies either?- None at all.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- None at all.- You like a nice buffet?- Everything.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26- I'll eat anything.- OK, Blaze, on your barks, get set, go.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29- Blaze, get it. - So, let's see how Blaze gets on.
0:13:29 > 0:13:35He's a Lakeland terrier Jack Russell cross. So he's quite an unusual mix.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39He is so quick. He seems to know exactly what to do.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Come on, come on, come on.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Well, this is egg-citing.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48Looks like Blaze is going to have a CRACK at the egg.
0:13:48 > 0:13:49Come on.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52Marie and Blaze compete in quite a few dog shows together
0:13:52 > 0:13:57so they are already a strong team and you can really see that here.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59- Come on, Blaze. Good boy.- Quickly.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03Looks like he may be losing his bottle.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Blaze, good boy. Come on.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08CHEERING
0:14:08 > 0:14:10- Blaze.- Good boy.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15- Go on.- Come on, Blaze.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Now, I don't want to give the game away here
0:14:17 > 0:14:19but I think Blaze might win this one.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Come on. Come on.
0:14:23 > 0:14:28- Blaze is going to do the whole lot.- Go on. Go on.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Quick.

0:14:32 > 0:14:33BEEPING
0:14:35 > 0:14:41- Good boy.- Blaze. Yes. Yes. Let's have a look.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44I'll throw you one to play with in a second. OK.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47I think we all know the answer to this. You have...
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Shall we count your points?
0:14:50 > 0:14:52One,
0:14:52 > 0:14:53two,
0:14:53 > 0:14:55three,
0:14:55 > 0:14:56four,

0:14:58 > 0:14:59six,
0:14:59 > 0:15:01seven
0:15:01 > 0:15:04and a sausage. Eight points.
0:15:04 > 0:15:05CHEERING
0:15:05 > 0:15:10That means that Team Matthew are the winners. Well done.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14So it's now after two games one all.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Now, all of tonight's contestants are here to support
0:15:17 > 0:15:18a really great cause.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21The best way to fund-raise is by getting sponsored to enter
0:15:21 > 0:15:24an event at the Sport Relief Games
0:15:24 > 0:15:27but there are all sorts of ways you and your dog can make a difference.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34The first ever Sport Relief Games take place
0:15:34 > 0:15:37from Friday the 21st to Sunday the 23rd of March.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41The best way to join the fun and games is to sign up
0:15:41 > 0:15:43to run, cycle or swim.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46We beat the Sport Relief marathon!

0:15:49 > 0:15:52and raise money for Sport Relief along with your faithful friend.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54How about charging a fee for colleagues to
0:15:54 > 0:15:56bring their pooches to work?
0:15:56 > 0:15:59Or you could ask for donations in exchange for walking people's dogs.

0:16:10 > 0:16:14Please do get involved. Every donation makes a vital difference.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18Now, it's time for our celebrity captains Charley and Ziggy
0:16:18 > 0:16:21and Matthew and Wiggie to play the next game.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25So, let's explain the rules. The game is called Pooch Petrol
0:16:25 > 0:16:27and requires each team to ride a tricycle.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31Thankfully, it's the humans who'll be doing the pedalling.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34The course consists of four boxes containing plastic balls.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37As they go around, they must collect as many balls as possible
0:16:37 > 0:16:41but only one at a time. Sounds simple but there's a catch.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Their vehicle can only move
0:16:43 > 0:16:48while their dog is sitting on the back in their very own petrol tank.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51If the dog jumps out, the celebrity must stop,
0:16:51 > 0:16:54get them back in place before they can continue.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57The winners will be the team that collects the most balls within
0:16:57 > 0:17:01the time limit, so let's get the wheels in motion for Pooch Petrol.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10Matthew and his miniature schnauzer are standing by.
0:17:10 > 0:17:15- Are you ready?- Yeah. - On your barks, get set, go.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17You wait there, Wigs.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21Daddy might be a little while. Wait there. Wait.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24A shaky start from Matthew but he's off. The first ball in the basket.
0:17:24 > 0:17:25Wait there.
0:17:26 > 0:17:33- Wait there. Wait. Wait there.- I think Wiggie's quite enjoying himself.
0:17:33 > 0:17:34He seems pretty content.
0:17:34 > 0:17:39Oh, nearly lost the ball. Wait there. Wait there. Wait there.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43He's looking quite regal now.
0:17:44 > 0:17:50- Oh.- Oh, bit of a wobble. Now he's back in control.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53Here we go, Wigs.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Wait there. Wait there.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59BEEPING
0:17:59 > 0:18:02Well done.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05A flawless round from Wiggie there.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Not quite so flawless from Matthew, though.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12- Well done, you got seven balls. - Well done, Wiggie. Yeah!
0:18:12 > 0:18:16Now, Charley, remember, it's not the sort of bike you're used to,
0:18:16 > 0:18:22- I know, but... OK, on your barks, get set, go.- Stay there. Good boy.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26- Good boy. Is he still there? - Yes, he's still there.- Oh. OK.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30So, Charley is famous for his travels around the world on his motorbike.
0:18:30 > 0:18:35This should be a fairly easy round for him as long as Ziggy stays put.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37- Is he still there?- Yes.- OK.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Don't worry, I'll let you know if he's not.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41I almost put the doggy treat in my mouth then.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44I didn't know what to do with it. Oh, look, oh.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47- Careful on the corners, please. - OK.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Charley's moving pretty fast.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52He is clearly a lot more comfortable with speed than Matthew was.
0:18:52 > 0:18:58- It's Ziggy against Wiggie. - There we go. Right. Here we go.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02- Oh, I missed it.- Looks like faster isn't always better.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Charley sped past that and missed the ball.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- He doesn't look very happy, does he? - He's got the wind in his ears.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12I'll go faster. See how fast we can go, Ziggy? Come on. Here we go.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Oh, I missed another one.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16BEEPING
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Speed demon Charley zoomed round that course
0:19:19 > 0:19:21while Ziggy enjoyed the wind in his hair.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Charley and Ziggy, you managed to get 11 balls.
0:19:27 > 0:19:28CHEERING
0:19:28 > 0:19:33Which makes you the proud winners of Pooch Petrol.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35OK, let's see what that's done to the overall score.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Team Charley have the upper hand now
0:19:38 > 0:19:40with two rounds to one.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44And that 2-1 lead will earn them a very handy time
0:19:44 > 0:19:46advantage in the final showdown.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49It's time to play The Bark Off.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59Now, in front of our teams are some classic British landmarks
0:19:59 > 0:20:03and each team must make their way from Land's End to John o'Groats.
0:20:03 > 0:20:04Now, this is a relay race.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08The course will be completed one dog at a time and if an obstacle
0:20:08 > 0:20:11is refused or incorrectly cleared then they'll hear this sound...
0:20:11 > 0:20:12BUZZER
0:20:12 > 0:20:15They'll only get two attempts at each obstacle
0:20:15 > 0:20:17and they cannot move on until they hear the sound...
0:20:17 > 0:20:19BELL
0:20:19 > 0:20:22So, the team that completes the course in the fastest time
0:20:22 > 0:20:23will take overall victory
0:20:23 > 0:20:26and be in with a chance of going through to the grand final.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Team Charley are in the lead which means that
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Team Matthew have the pressure of going first.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35And because they are lagging behind, two games to one, they'll be
0:20:35 > 0:20:40starting their run with 15 seconds already added to the clock.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42It's time to play The Bark Off.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46OK, Team Matthew, good luck.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49On your barks, get set, go.
0:20:49 > 0:20:50Through, through.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53It's Blaze for Team Matthew going first on The Bark Off.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57They compete in dog shows together, so expect a fast round.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00A lightning-quick start, as expected from Blaze,
0:21:00 > 0:21:02as he races over Tower Bridge.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Straight through Barking Tube
0:21:04 > 0:21:06and up onto Swindon's Magic Roundabout
0:21:06 > 0:21:08for a three-second sit and stay.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10CLOCK TICKS
0:21:10 > 0:21:12BELL
0:21:12 > 0:21:13- Good boy.- Nicely done, Blaze.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17Straight over Sherwood Forest and into the tunnel for both of them.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Come on, up. Good boy.
0:21:21 > 0:21:22Good scramble over Mount Snowdon
0:21:22 > 0:21:25and onto the Royal County Down Golf Course.
0:21:25 > 0:21:26Weave, weave, weave.
0:21:26 > 0:21:30Lovely concentration from Blaze on the weave there.
0:21:30 > 0:21:34Not taking his eye off Marie for a second. Time for a ferry ride.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37Blaze just needs to stay on board.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Now, the ferry ride across the Mersey.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43MUSIC: "Ferry Cross The Mersey" by Gerry And The Pacemakers
0:21:43 > 0:21:47- Wait, wait. - Very nice gentle ride.
0:21:47 > 0:21:52- Excellent stuff. - Wait. Good boy. Come on.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Last two jumps over Hadrian's Wall and the Forth Bridge
0:21:55 > 0:21:56and he's made it to John o'Groats.
0:21:56 > 0:22:02- OK, it's time for Max, our lovely, quiet Border collie.- Forward.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06Forward. Quickly. Quick. Come on.
0:22:06 > 0:22:11A solid stroll over the bridge for Max, taking in the sights of London.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14And further down the course now, Max completing the sit and stay
0:22:14 > 0:22:17- and cleanly over Sherwood Forest. - Quick.
0:22:19 > 0:22:25- These two are great together, aren't they?- Over and up the mountain.
0:22:25 > 0:22:26Weave.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29- Weave. Weave.- Oh, beautiful.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32A lovely weave from Max through the golf course.
0:22:32 > 0:22:36- Now, I think there might be a few bribery biscuits in that ferry.- Stay.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40MUSIC: "Ferry Cross The Mersey" by Gerry And The Pacemakers
0:22:40 > 0:22:44Stay. Stay. Stay.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46CHEERING
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Max, this way. Over.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53The last few jumps for Max and a nice, clean round.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57Now it's time for Matthew and Wiggie. This could be interesting.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Quick, quick, quick. Come here. Come here.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03- Did Matthew just kick Stonehenge? - Now over Tower Bridge.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06Come on, Wigs. Come on.
0:23:06 > 0:23:12- Good boy. No.- He made it over Tower Bridge. Now Barking Tube.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15- Over to the sit and stay at the Magic Roundabout.- Wigs, come here.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18Slight lack of coordination between the pair at the moment.
0:23:18 > 0:23:24- I don't really think Wiggie's listening.- Come here. Come here.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- OK, now the sit and stay. - Sit. Wait. Wait.
0:23:28 > 0:23:29CLOCK TICKS
0:23:29 > 0:23:30Wait.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32BELL
0:23:32 > 0:23:35- Over the jump.- He did listen that time. Very good, Wiggie.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37- Through the tunnel together. - Come on, Wigs.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Down on all fours for Matthew as he gets a dog's-eye view
0:23:44 > 0:23:46of the train tunnel.
0:23:46 > 0:23:50Wigs. Wigs. What's this here? Up you get.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54Yeah, looks like the biscuit bribe trick is coming out again.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57MUSIC: "Ferry Cross The Mersey" by Gerry And The Pacemakers
0:23:57 > 0:24:00Wiggie doesn't even know he's going anywhere.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04What's this? What's this? What's this here? Wigs, come on.
0:24:04 > 0:24:09- Just the last two jumps. - Wigs, Wigs, Wigs.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11And he's home. BEEPING
0:24:11 > 0:24:13CHEERING
0:24:13 > 0:24:16So a sneaky snack for Wiggie means a quick trip across the Mersey
0:24:16 > 0:24:18and hopefully a good time for Team Matthew.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22- Well done, Team Matthew, would you like to know your time?- Go on.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26A very respectable four minutes 53 seconds. Well done.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28CHEERING
0:24:28 > 0:24:29Team Charley,
0:24:29 > 0:24:32you now know what you have to beat.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34On your barks, get set, go.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37So, it's tiny Hugo off first for Team Charley
0:24:37 > 0:24:41and straightaway we can see a lack of concentration from the dachshund.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44Adam needs to get him focused to get round the course.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48Looks like he's back on track, speeding across Tower Bridge.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52Oh, dear, that strong sense of smell is getting Hugo into
0:24:52 > 0:24:54all sorts of trouble.
0:24:54 > 0:24:59Just when we thought he'd come to the end of the line, Hugo does a U-turn.
0:25:00 > 0:25:04- Up.- You can pick him up and put him on there. That's fine.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07Good boy. Sit. Sit.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09CLOCK TICKS
0:25:09 > 0:25:10Wow, excellent.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11BELL
0:25:11 > 0:25:14- Well done.- Come on. - On to Sherwood Forest.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18That jump is twice the size of Hugo. He just bounds straight over it.
0:25:20 > 0:25:25- Come on, Hugo. Yeah, good boy. - Making easy work of Giant's Causeway.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Up.
0:25:28 > 0:25:29I'll tell you what,
0:25:29 > 0:25:32it must be like a dog buffet in the bottom of that ferry by now.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36MUSIC: "Ferry Cross The Mersey" by Gerry And The Pacemakers
0:25:38 > 0:25:43- Come on.- You can pick him up, that's fine.- Ready? Keep going.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46Come on. Over.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52And a lovely flurry of jumps to finish off from Hugo.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55It's Lillie's turn and Jenni's going to have to work hard
0:25:55 > 0:25:58to keep up with her.
0:25:58 > 0:26:03- Look at the speed. - She is really fast.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06A bit too fast there. She's overshot Magic Roundabout.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09CLOCK TICKS
0:26:09 > 0:26:10BELL
0:26:13 > 0:26:17Good clean jump over at Sherwood Forest from Lillie.
0:26:17 > 0:26:18Further down the course now.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22Let's see if Lillie can find herself a snack at the bottom of the boat.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25MUSIC: "Ferry Cross The Mersey" by Gerry And The Pacemakers
0:26:25 > 0:26:28No, she's not going to need that snack.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Wait. Wait.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33CHEERING
0:26:33 > 0:26:34BELL
0:26:34 > 0:26:37- OK, Charley, off you go. - Here come Charley and Ziggy.
0:26:37 > 0:26:41- Now, remember, Ziggy is 12 years old, which is 84 in human years.- Got it.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45- Got it.- So, he might take things a little slower than those young pups.
0:26:47 > 0:26:51Further down the course to Sherwood Forest and a jump from the old boy.
0:26:51 > 0:26:56- Oh, followed by a little scratch. - Sorry. In your own time.
0:26:56 > 0:27:02Take your time, Ziggy. No rush. Time for our last trip across the Mersey.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04Ziggy. Stay.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07MUSIC: "Ferry Cross The Mersey" by Gerry And The Pacemakers
0:27:07 > 0:27:08Ziggy.
0:27:08 > 0:27:09BUZZER
0:27:09 > 0:27:11Oh, Ziggy's out. One more try.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15Stay. Stay. Ziggy, look.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18No. Never mind.
0:27:18 > 0:27:19BELL
0:27:20 > 0:27:21Last two jumps.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27BEEPING Good effort, Ziggy.
0:27:27 > 0:27:32A great round from our oldest ever competitor. Well done, Ziggy.
0:27:32 > 0:27:38OK, now, the time to beat was four minutes and 53 seconds.
0:27:38 > 0:27:43I can reveal that you managed it in a time of
0:27:43 > 0:27:47five minutes 25 seconds.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51Huge congratulations to Team Matthew for winning tonight's show,
0:27:51 > 0:27:54which means each of their dogs get a dog toy.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56And, interestingly enough,
0:27:56 > 0:28:01that's the very first time that the team with the time penalty has won.
0:28:01 > 0:28:03- Hey.- There we go.
0:28:03 > 0:28:07But, was it fast enough to qualify for the semifinals?
0:28:07 > 0:28:11Only the top four winning times of the series will make it through
0:28:11 > 0:28:14and your time of four minutes and 53 seconds
0:28:14 > 0:28:18puts you in eighth position, I'm afraid.
0:28:18 > 0:28:22- But still, well done for tonight. - Yeah.- A really good time.
