Episode 5 The Code

Hello and welcome to The Code.

Locked inside this safe is £3,500.

To open the safe and win the money,

contestants just need to

crack a three-digit code.

Each time someone fails, though,

more money goes into the safe

and the jackpot gets higher and higher.

Last time, Mark and Nick were on

their way when we ran out of time.

So, let's get them back on.

-Good to see you again.

-Hiya.

-Nick.

-Hello.

-Mark.

-Hi. Hello.

-Just to remind ourselves - Mark, you're from Leicester.

-That's right.

-Nick, from Brighton.

-Yep.

And, Nick, you are going out with Mark's daughter.

-Yes.

-That's right.

-This is a test. Is that what it comes down to?

-Yeah.

As soon as he gets an answer wrong, that's it, I'm putting my...

-"That's it!"

-..foot down, he's out the door.

We're playing for more than money is what it comes down to.

-Let's say hello once again to Lesley.

-Hello.

They played very well, didn't they, in the first bit.

They did, yes, they're doing really well, so far.

-Let's hope your success continues.

-OK.

-Thank you.

So, last time, if you remember,

you revealed the first number in the code, the number two,

which means we're moving onto the next level -

it gets a little bit harder.

As before, you will see three answers but now you can only

see the questions behind two of them before you have to commit.

Let's have a look at your answers.

It does become

important, at this point,

which one you choose first.

-Right.

-OK.

OK, well, obviously your an expert on wine,

you drink far too much of it.

If it gets us the question right,

-then that's...

-If it's a question on

cheap plonk, you'll be well-placed.

Ryanair... It could be...

Michael O'Leary was the founder,

it might be something about that.

Yeah. How much to go to the toilet.

What do you know

about Russell Howard?

Comedian, has his own show.

-OK.

-OK, which one do we want to have

a look at first?

Shall we go for wine?

-Yeah.

-OK, let's see

the question behind wine, please.

Well, he's the wine expert

in a restaurant. He's the one who

advises the customer in the

-restaurants.

-Yeah. Pretty much.

So, we know what a sommelier is.

We're looking for one correct answer.

-One correct answer.

-OK.

Will we try Russell Howard? Or Ryanair?

-Yeah, well, you know lots about him, don't you?

-I don't know lots but

-I feel...

-Go on, then. Russell Howard.

Let's have a look at the question behind Russell Howard, please.

Well, I'm fairly certain The League Of Gentlemen

was a bit before Russell Howard's time so I'd be very surprised

if they'd predicted his rise to fame.

What we have to do now is discard

one that you feel is not correct.

If we discard Russell Howard,

-we can see the question just in case which I'm happy to do.

-Yes, fine.

Happy, happy to do that?

We'll discard Russell Howard because we know wine.

OK, we're going to discard

Russell Howard.

If it is the correct answer,

that's the end for you guys.

It is incorrect.

Well done, chaps. Lesley.

Russell Howard, that is his real name,

and born in 1980, your instincts, Nick, absolutely bang on then.

The correct answer is Roy Chubby Brown,

-real name Royston Vasey...

-I didn't know that.

..and he actually appears on The League Of Gentlemen

occasionally as the mayor of the town, quite fittingly.

There you go, so Royston Vasey,

the mayor of Royston Vasey..

The good news there is we can now discard that incorrect answer.

Gives you two to choose from,

you're already very confident about wine possibly being correct

but let's have a look at the question behind Ryanair.

That's not right. They're big competitors, aren't they?

-So they're not the same company. Shall we lock wine in?

-Yeah.

Let's lock in wine as the correct answer.

If it is correct, you get to choose another number,

another digit to go into the code.

If it's wrong, then we're on our way, I'm afraid, gentlemen.

It is the correct answer, well done. Lesley.

Yes, a sommelier, a wine expert.

You were very confident about this,

sommelier coming from a French term for a court official charged

with looking after supplies

and the low-cost airline founded by British Airways in 1998,

not Ryanair, the Irish airline,

but Go, which is now part of easyJet.

When Go launched, Stelios and some of his colleagues bought

tickets for the first flight and turned up in orange overalls.

Cheeky, I like it. Thank you, Lesley.

That means, gentlemen, you get to choose

another digit now from

the pad. Two and eight already gone. What's the thinking?

-Just pick a number.

-Pick a number, I'll try six.

We're looking for number six. Two spaces remaining in the code.

Is it in the first box?

It's not there.

Is it in the second box?

It's not there, either so two, six and eight all counted out now.

We are making progress. Let's see your next three answers.

I'm inclined to avoid Back To The Future

cos I think there might be a question about somebody who

acted in that, which I wouldn't be very confident about.

Russian and French could be quite broad so...

Croquet could be something about the rules of croquet.

I think Russian and French, let's go for Russian and French first.

Russian and French. Let's

have a look at the question.

-The Marseillaise...

-The Marseillaise is the French anthem, isn't it?

-Is that in the 1812 Overture?

-I'm not sure.

The 1812 overture's got cannons

in it, that's the only thing I know

about that. There are cannons which

go off at the start of it, I think.

Don't forget you can open one

other question before you have to

make a decision.

-Croquet?

-Shall we go for croquet?

-Yeah, let's try croquet.

-Let's

-try croquet.

-Let's have a look

at the question behind croquet.

-OK, I know that one.

-Do you?

-That's polo.

-Is it polo?

I'm so glad you said that. Very, very glad you said that.

I'm sure that's polo. So we can say now that that's wrong.

-You're happy to discard that one?

-Yeah, we'll discard that one.

We're going to discard croquet.

If it is the correct answer,

I'm afraid that's the end

of our go here.

If it's wrong, we get to open Back To The Future

and see what that has to offer.

It is, well done.

-Thank you.

-Lesley, croquet.

Yes, croquet is far too leisurely to

be played in such frantic periods.

The correct answer is polo.

Nailed it, Mark. You've got it.

And that means we can discard

the incorrect answer, polo

and we can have a look at the question behind Back To The Future.

I think there is Sport in Back To The Future of some kind.

-But I know he rides a skateboard.

-He rides a skateboard.

He rides a skateboard and he plays the guitar and he invents

rock and roll when he goes back.

That's in one of the sequels, I think.

The key thing is what he's called.

Is he called Scott Howard?

One of those is the correct answer.

-Let's go back to the first question.

-That's the one we're looking for.

It's certainly before 1812 so there's time for the Marseillaise to

-be in the 1812 Overture.

-If that's when the French national anthem...

-And Tchaikovsky is Russian.

-Yes.

I think my instinct is saying that Russian

-and French is the correct one.

-And Back To The Future is...

-I feel awful, I ought to know what he's called...

-I know, I'm the same.

I've seen the first 15 minutes.

How did you stop?

It's such a great film.

The bully's called Biff, isn't he?

We're looking for one correct answer here,

just got to find the one that's right.

-Are we going to go for Tchaikovsky?

-Yeah, sure.

So we're going to say that Russian and French is the correct answer.

OK, we want to lock in that as the correct answer.

If it's wrong, that's where we part company.

Is Russian and French the correct answer?

Big sigh of relief. I must go home and watch the film.

As soon as possible. Lesley,

the 1812 Overture, Russian and French.

Russian and French, yes.

God Save The Czar and the Marseillaise, you mentioned

the Marseillaise, Mark, and

beautifully worked out the correct answer.

In 1985, Back To The Future was a big film

-but he wasn't called Scott Howard. He was Marty McFly.

-Of course.

Oh, Marty McFly. I know him now.

The correct answer, though, Scott Howard, Teen Wolf.

Well, gentlemen, once again

good deductive reasoning

and good knowledge as well

and that has got you to the point where you can pick another number.

Seven left and two spots in the code still to fill.

-What's it going to be next?

-Well, I have 100% record of choosing them.

I'll go for number five.

Number five, right there in the middle of the pad.

Is it in the first box of the code?

Not there.

Is it in the second box?

Not there. Another number down.

That leaves us with six to choose from and we're still

playing at the point where we can see two questions at a time.

So, shall we have a look at your next three answers?

-Well, Brussels, EU.

-Yeah.

-Parliament.

-Capital of Belgium.

-Sprouts.

-Yes.

-Tuesday.

-Day of the week.

-Very good, Nick, yes.

-And five is a number.

-You're on fire now.

Shall we just work our way down?

-Yeah, let's go through it.

-Let's go for number five.

OK, let's have a look at the

question behind five.

-BOTH:

-Eins, zwei, drei, vier, funf...

Um, vier, funf, I did

German at school

for a year or two.

Funf is five in German.

I didn't do very well in German.

But I got to 5 and

that's all I have to do.

For today's purposes,

that could be all you need.

Let's go for Brussels, then.

OK, let's have a look at the

question behind Brussels.

Well, that's Italy somewhere, isn't it?

Beautiful pronunciation gives us a

-clue there.

-Thank you.

I'm not entirely sure which city it is.

It might be Rome?

-Yeah, it's not Brussels.

-Exactly.

So we'll disregard Brussels.

We're going to lose Brussels.

If it's incorrect, we get to look behind Tuesday and play on.

Is Brussels an incorrect answer?

You want this to go red.

It is incorrect, well done. The gentlemen were saying Rome.

Yes, Rome, absolutely right. Not Brussels.

Fiumicino, also known as Leonardo da Vinci Airport.

-It didn't sound Belgian, did it?

-No.

Thank you, Lesley.

That means we can bin an incorrect answer there

and straightaway look at the question behind Tuesday.

Do you know, I'm so glad that I am confident about that other answer.

-To have to sit and work that out.

-I know.

Anyway, we're very confident about the first one.

-We'll say that five is the correct answer.

-Let's lock in five.

Mark and Nick, let's hope that five is the correct answer.

And it is. Well done, great stuff.

Yes, Nick and Mark together both knowing the numbers they need

to figure out that this is five, that's the correct answer.

January the 1st,

Friday, at the start of a leap year,

what day of the week will it fall on the next year?

Normally it would be a Saturday, but the leap makes it Sunday.

Really well done. Not quite so much luck with the

numbers at the moment.

-Who's going to choose the next one?

-Well, you choose it.

-OK, we've got to pick it. Lucky number seven.

-Lucky number seven.

Is it in the first box?

It isn't in the first box.

How about the second?

-It's not there.

-You're welcome.

Skilfully avoiding the numbers in the code.

Eventually you do have to get the numbers in the code,

if you're going to win, Nick, Mark, £3,500.

and the hand of your daughter, Mark.

We haven't got to that stage.

We haven't got there yet. But there is a lot at stake.

Let's have a look at your next three answers.

Right, so, Butlins, holiday company.

-Yeah.

-It's got to be something like where was the first Butlins opened?

-And I know the answer to that.

-I'm glad YOU do.

That's where Leicester people go on holiday, Skegness.

Marsupial, doesn't that

mean from a southern continent,

like marsupial tigers and things

like that? Yeah, anyway.

-I'd feel most confident with Northern Ireland.

-Would you?

-Yeah.

I don't know much, like

geography of Northern Ireland?

-I'd rather avoid that for now.

-OK.

Let's stick with the first answer,

that's worked so far.

-OK.

-So we'll go for Butlins first.

Can we see the question

behind Butlins, please?

THEY LAUGH

I wish I hadn't started

spouting off about Butlins now.

Sometimes knowledge can be

a dangerous thing.

Actually, you did say go with my gut instincts

so I think my gut instinct...

-Is Skegness still?

-..is Skegness.

-OK.

-But I'm suddenly not sure.

1946 sounds right.

Before you commit, you get to

look at one other question.

Which shall we go for next?

I'm hoping Northern Ireland is a sport question.

Yeah, but it might not be. It might

be a geography question next.

Marsupial, if you're taking charge.

You are going out with his daughter.

-For now.

-Let's have a look at the

question behind marsupial.

-No, you see, that's false. That's not a marsupial.

-Is it not?

No, because otherwise a chicken

would be a marsupial.

Yes, that's true.

The chicken is not a marsupial.

It's not, you're right. So that's false.

-No, that's false.

-Yeah.

Are you happy, Nick?

-I am delighted to discard that.

-OK, we'll discard marsupial.

We're going to discard marsupial.

If it's a correct answer, then,

Mark and Nick, you are going home.

You're just looking for that

one to turn red.

It is incorrect. Lesley,

that fooled me, I thought

that was right.

Oh, well, marsupials usually have pouches, not always,

but usually. Right decision, wrong reason.

Chicken's not a mammal.

-Oh, really?

-The correct answer's

a monotreme, such as a duckbilled platypus. They lay eggs.

OK, so a monotreme, not a marsupial.

And that leaves us with two, one

of which must be the correct answer.

Let's discard the

incorrect answer.

Let's have a look at the

question behind Northern Ireland.

Well, Mo Mowlam was

because she was the one who broke the Good Friday Agreement.

John Reid.

Remember, you were confident about Skegness being the first one.

I'm now thinking that Peter Mandelson

-was the Northern Ireland Secretary.

-I'd be surprised...

We've got not confidence about this.

There's two answers in the scales, now, and we're balancing

one against the other, neither of which you are totally confident,

which you have been up till now about a lot of answers.

I think you should go with your gut instincts, you know.

-You thought chicken was a mammal.

-We'll say that Butlins is false.

Let's lock in Northern Ireland as the correct answer.

Let's hope it's right. If it is, you get to choose another digit.

Please, let Northern Ireland be a correct answer.

-Ah.

-Ooooh!

Go with your guts. You went with your gut, absolutely fantastic.

Well done, Mark, well done, Nick, good teamwork there. Lesley.

Very good teamwork.

Mo Mowlam, Peter Mandelson and John Reid,

all Secretary of State for Northern Ireland.

Peter Mandelson took over from Mo, Marjorie Mowlam

and John Reid took over from him.

The chain of holiday camps opened its first site at

Brean Sands, not Butlins,

which Mark, you were right in saying, was opened in Skegness.

I was right.

I just suddenly, I lost confidence in that.

You were there, weren't you?

Butlins is famous for its redcoats including Des O'Connor.

The correct answer, famous for its bluecoats,

including Shane Ritchie, is Pontins.

Pontins at Weston-super-Mare.

Right now, Mark, if I were you I would think that your daughter's

-chosen pretty well.

-He's bearing it so far.

I'm very good at standing next to him.

It's now time to pick another number.

You've been very good with the questions,

not quite so lucky with the numbers so far.

-What's it going to be next?

-Let's get rid of zero.

Yeah, I was thinking that, actually.

Zero, find out if it's there in the code. Is zero in the first box?

No zero there. How about in the second box?

It's not there, either.

It does mean we're down to four numbers.

That means you're evens if you answer the next question,

to get one of those numbers. You're working your way through them,

-this is good progress.

-That's a positive spin.

-Stay positive!

I like that, we'll try that.

OK, let's have a look at your next three answers.

Right, orangutan, I don't know what

they would ask us about that.

-Is it a marsupial?

-Yes.

-Pablo Picasso?

-Barcelona?

It could be the value of a painting

or something horrible like that.

-Slavery...

-That could be...

-When was it abolished?

I really should know that, but...

Yes, Civil War in the States.

Shall we try Pablo Picasso? I'm veering towards Pablo Picasso.

OK, let's have a look at the

question behind Pablo Picasso.

Picasso was Spanish.

I've been to the Picasso Museum, I'm not sure if it's on a hill.

-It's in like some streets.

-Where was that, in Barcelona?

It's in Barcelona.

There is a Pablo Picasso Museum in Barcelona,

whether or not it's on the hill.

-Shall we go for slavery next?

-Yes.

-Slavery.

-Let's have a look at the

question behind slavery.

-Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear.

-Yes.

Surely they didn't have slaves in 1981.

Is slavery technically illegal

-everywhere, either?

-I think so.

I don't think there's any country

-which has slaves legally.

-Yes.

We do have to discard one of those answers.

Oh.

I'm inclining toward slavery

-being false, Nick.

-OK.

-Well, that's the way I'm...

-We're going to have to get rid of...

Yeah, yeah.

We're still not sure, this is,

this is sweaty palms time again.

As a best guess, slavery is

incorrect and we want to discard

-that. Absolutely sure?

-No.

But we're going to go with that.

-Yeah.

-You're going to go with it,

OK. Let's lock it in.

OK, if slavery was abolished

in 1981 in Mauritania

then I'm afraid that is the end of

-our time together.

-Oh, no.

If it's incorrect, we get to play on.

Is slavery

an incorrect answer?

-BOTH:

-Aw.

Nick, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.

Let's have a look at orangutan.

Should have gone for that one. Did you know that?

So let's find out about those. Lesley.

Slavery was abolished as late as 1981?

It was, and indeed wasn't fully criminalised until 2007.

-There's still a problem.

-Wow.

The hill in Barcelona, you knew so much about Barcelona.

There is a museum dedicated to Pablo Picasso in Barcelona

but this museum is for Joan Miro.

-BOTH:

-Miro.

-Well, I wouldn't get that.

-Otis, not

an orangutan, it turns out.

It's not an orangutan but an

aardvark that Otis was on CBBC.

I'm so sorry, guys.

I hope this hasn't affected the relationship too much.

-You can buy me a drink to make it up.

-I'm going to have to.

OK, great stuff.

On this occasion, Nick, Mark,

I'm afraid you failed to break the code, so we have to let you go.

-Thanks anyway.

-Thanks very much.

-Nice to meet you.

What fantastic contestants.

Unfortunately, their loss is the next team's gain.

Let's meet the next people hoping to crack the code.

Hello, Tina and Martin. It's good to see you. How are you?

-BOTH:

-Fine, thank you.

Now, you're from Eastbourne, East Sussex, is that right?

-Eastbourne.

-And I'm from East Sussex.

Tell me how you know each other.

We met, just over 20 years ago, it must be 20 years,

through a mutual friend. She had a little bit of a party one evening...

-And for some reason, Martin took an instant dislike to me.

-Really?

-Wasn't keen. Wasn't keen.

-Can you explain why, Martin?

I thought she was very competitive. We were playing board games.

-Are you very competitive, Tina?

-Yes, I am.

-You like to win.

-Yes, I do like to win.

-So how's it going to work then, as a team?

Martin's going to answer and I'm going to agree.

That doesn't sound terribly competitive any more.

Sounds like you've buried that a little bit. OK.

Now, the good news is the previous team failed and

that means that we add another £500 to the jackpot.

That means it stands at £4,000,

-which would be quite useful for you guys.

-It would be, yeah.

-Absolutely, yes.

-Let's reset the code.

Let's have a look at your first three answers.

Remember, only one of those answers

is going to be correct.

At this point, you can open all

three questions for all three

answers so, really, the order in

which you do it doesn't matter too much.

Which one are you going to

-go for first?

-Start at the top?

-I think we should do, yeah.

-Start at the top with Polo.

I don't think it's that one.

You don't think it's there?

-Not an American state capital?

-No.

Quite a strong feeling about

-that one.

-Yeah.

-OK.

-Incorrect.

OK. Next one?

-BOTH:

-Starlight Express.

Let's have a look at

the question behind Starlight Express.

That is, I've seen that with my

-children.

-That could be right, then.

I think that could be right.

Pretty confident there.

Let's have a look at the last question, photosynthesis.

No, photosynthesis is plants, isn't

-it? It's to do with plants.

-Yes.

You seem pretty confident. Shall

we lock in one of those answers?

-I think so, yes.

-Starlight Express.

-Starlight Express, it is.

-Are you happy with that?

Let's lock it in.

If it's right, you get to choose a number to put into the code

and see if it sticks.

If it's wrong, I'm afraid it's an

early exit for Tina and Martin.

Is it the correct answer?

It's right. Well done.

Good start. Lesley,

Starlight Express.

Yes, apparently Andrew Lloyd Webber wanted to create

a musical about Thomas the Tank Engine

but couldn't get permission, so he decided a roller-skating

musical about trains was the way to go.

Very, very successful in the West End. Still running in Germany.

And the name that connects an English explorer,

a bicycle company, and an American state capital is

Sir Walter Raleigh, the bicycle company as in the Raleigh Chopper,

and the American state capital of North Carolina,

named after Sir Walter Raleigh, who formed a colony there.

And the process which propels food through the human

digestive system, not photosynthesis but peristalsis.

-Peristalsis.

-Oh, blimey.

Who didn't know that?

And that means you get to choose your first number to

punch into the code and see if it sticks.

What's it going to be?

Can I please start with five?

We're going to start with the number five. Is five in our code?

Let's have a look at the first box.

It's not there.

-It's not there. BOTH:

-Oh, dear!

Is it in the final box?

-Oh, no.

-There is no number five in the code.

We've eliminated number five and we still get to play

the game at its easiest, looking at all three questions at the time.

-That's good news. BOTH:

-OK.

Let's see the next three answers.

Doesn't matter what order you

take them in cos you

get to see them all anyway.

-Top again?

-Shall we start?

-We were lucky last time.

-Let's have

a look at the question behind bacon.

-BOTH:

-He has...marmalade.

-..Marmite.

-LAUGHS:

-Not Marmite, marmalade.

Marmite!

Good start, quite confident that that's false.

-Right, which one next?

-Achilles' heel.

-Oh.

-Laryngeal, that's your throat,

-laryngitis, isn't it?

-I don't know.

OK, so we think probably not.

OK, let's see the question behind Macau.

I reckon that's definitely correct.

-Do you know that?

-I think so.

-I think it was Portuguese.

-Oh, OK.

-So, I'm pretty certain.

-Are you?

-Yes.

-OK, if you think you know.

-OK.

Happy to lock that one in?

Yeah, we'll lock that one in.

We're going to lock in Macau as a correct answer.

This feels very good, you're

rolling through these questions.

I hope it's the correct answer.

If it is, we get to choose another

number. If it isn't, back to

East Sussex.

Is Macau the correct answer?

-Oh, well done.

-Great stuff, Martin,

very confident on that.

-Have you been there?

-Yes, I have.

That's going to help.

That's going to help. Lesley, Macau.

Absolutely, Martin, well done on

your Macau knowledge,

knowing that Macau was Portugal's

last remaining overseas territory.

They ceded independence in 1999.

What does Paddington Bear have in his sandwiches?

Tina knew this straightaway, not bacon, but marmalade.

Usually keeps one under his hat.

And often more noticeable in men than women,

not the Achilles' heel, which is in your heel,

but the Adam's apple.

There you go, in your throat.

Good stuff, well, it's now time to pick another number.

-Who's going to choose?

-It must be your turn.

-Must be, yes.

-Can I go for number three, please?

-Number three.

Is number three in the code? Let's have a look at the first box.

Is it there?

No number three. The second box?

It is there.

Slap bang in the middle, number three.

Well done, you found one of the numbers of the code

and that means we take the game to the next level,

slightly more difficult.

Just as before you will see all three answers but now

you can only see questions for two of them

before you have to make a decision and commit.

Right, let's have a look at those three answers.

Now it starts to matter a little bit more which order you

choose them in.

-Well, thyme obviously a herb.

-Yeah.

Do you know anything about Jeeves?

-Well, Jeeves and Wooster.

-Is that

the only thing? 40. Comes after 39?

-Shall we go for the top one then? Thyme.

-Shall we?

-Thyme?

Yes, please. Thank you.

-That's coriander.

-It is, isn't it? Yes.

-That's coriander.

-Well done, yes.

-Very confident

-about that, Tina.

-Absolutely, yes.

OK, we do get to choose another

question before we have to

-make a decision. Which one is it going to be?

-Shall we do 40?

We'll do 40, then.

OK, let's have a look at the

question behind 40.

-Oh.

-Well, he was in the desert, wasn't he?

For 40 days and 40 nights.

So, between the resurrection

and the ascension.

Yes, but that's where I'm thinking

it's getting confused,

trying to lead us astray.

Oh, absolutely.

So, at this stage, we're looking to

discard one incorrect answer.

That will allow you to see the question behind Jeeves.

In that case we'll definitely

-discard thyme...

-The top one.

-We'll discard thyme.

-That's the one you're

the most confident about.

OK, we're going to take thyme as an incorrect answer.

We want this to go red and

we can get rid of it and play on.

If it's a correct answer,

then that does mean the game ends

here for you, Tina and Martin.

Is thyme an incorrect answer?

It's incorrect. Absolutely spot-on there. Lesley.

As Tina said, cilantro is coriander in the United States.

That means we can

bin an incorrect answer. Away it goes.

It leaves us with two, one of which must be the correct answer.

And it means we can have a look at the question behind Jeeves.

-It's Alfred.

-Alfred, yes.

-So that is wrong.

-That is wrong.

Ooh! So that means 40 is right.

Didn't you think that 40 was wrong as well?

-I did, didn't I?

-You can't have two incorrect answers.

-BOTH:

-No, it's definitely Alfred.

And we're going to say 40 must be the locked in correct answer.

-Yes.

-Yes.

If it's correct, we get to choose another digit to add to the

three that's up there in the code already.

Is 40 the right answer?

It is, well done. Confident, straight to the point, we like it.

Lesley.

40 days and 40 nights features a couple of times in the Bible.

The great flood lasted 40 days and 40 nights as did Jesus' trial in

the desert and the gap between the resurrection and the ascension.

As Martin knew immediately, Alfred is the name of Batman's servant,

not Jeeves. Jeeves is the Servant of Bertie Wooster.

-Do you know Alfred's surname?

-No, I don't know his surname at all.

-It's Pennyworth, although in earlier versions it was Beagle.

-Oh, OK.

Good stuff, thank you, Lesley.

We're really within touching distance of

£4,000 because you now get to choose another digit to go into the code.

-What are you going to go for?

-Can I please have seven?

Lucky number seven, let's see. Is it in that first box of the code?

It's not there. Is it in the last box of the code?

Yes, it's there.

-Only one more.

-But it gets trickier.

-Well, it does get trickier.

But one more digit and you've cracked the code.

And we're on our way down there to collect £4,000.

Now, we up the stakes a little bit

and things do get a little bit more difficult.

Now you can open just one question at a time

-before you have to commit.

-OK.

Only one of the answers is correct.

Brace yourselves, here come your next three answers.

Oh, my goodness. I don't know

anything about Franz Ferdinand.

-Is that the pop group?

-I don't know

anything about Franz Ferdinand.

You can only open one of these questions at a time.

What do you think? Shall we go for bay?

-We'll go for bay first.

-Bay. Shall we do bay?

-Bay.

Here we go. Let's have a look at the question behind bay.

Ah, no, that would be piebald,

-wouldn't it?

-Piebald?

That's a black and white horse.

-Is it?

-I think so.

I don't think it's... Oh, gosh.

Your instincts straightaway,

Martin, that that's not right.

-That's not right, I don't think.

-OK.

If you think that's not right...

Could be the end of our

-friendship...

-I know.

And you've come such a long way,

as well, you've healed so many

-wounds.

-We have.

-I don't think that's right.

-OK.

We want to discard that as an incorrect answer.

We want that to go red.

-Yes.

-Well done. I thought,

-I agreed with you.

-You did.

Well done, Martin. Well done,

Tina, for agreeing with him.

-Oh, thank you.

-Lesley,

piebald, Martin said.

Yes, absolutely right, Martin

immediately getting in there

with the correct answer

and dismissing bay which is

a brown sort of horse.

Skewbald is a horse which is white

and any colour other than black.

That's a new word on me. Thank you, Lesley.

It means we can bin that incorrect

answer, get rid of it. Leaves us with two,

one of which must be correct.

That's the one that we're looking for.

Which question would you like to see next?

It's going to have to be Tate Modern, isn't it?

OK, we'll go for Tate Modern.

Let's see the question behind Tate Modern.

I'm sure that's correct.

That's that big, as you walk in, isn't it,

where they have all the big arty things in.

-So I'm sure that's correct.

-You're sure that's correct?

-I'm pretty certain that's correct.

-OK. Okey dokey.

-You're happy to go with that?

-Yes, I am happy to go with that.

That means we're going to lock

that one in. Let's lock in Tate Modern as a correct answer.

Now it's locked in, you can't change it.

That means we can have a look at Franz Ferdinand, the question,

and just find out if that makes you feel more

confident or less confident in your choice.

-Oh, they were The Proclaimers...

-The Proclaimers.

-..they were, weren't they?

-They walked 500 miles, didn't they?

-They did do that, didn't they?

-And then 500 more.

Is that making you feel better about the choice you've made?

Yes, absolutely.

Now, if we get this it's a chance to enter one more digit in that keypad.

If Tate Modern is home to the Turbine Hall,

then we're moving forward.

Otherwise, we're going home.

-Yes!

-Yes!

Tina and Martin,

-you are on fire.

-OK.

On fire, absolutely brilliant. Lesley.

That's right, Martin's been

there, Tina agrees. The Tate Modern,

the Turbine Hall used to

house the electricity

generators in the old power station and

Craig and Charlie Reid, the Scottish twins,

you both knew this,

The Proclaimers is the correct answer.

There aren't any siblings in Franz Ferdinand.

Fantastic, thank you, Lesley.

Well, I think your relationship's come a long way.

Yeah, we're all right for now, aren't we?

Is this the peak so far?

Oh, well, I hope not.

Let's see if we can take it to the next level.

You get the chance to pick another number.

If you choose the right one, you will have cracked the code.

The door will open on a jackpot of £4,000.

Which number are you going to choose?

Six, please.

-Who's going to go for it?

-I'm going to go, is that still OK?

Tina, join me down by the safe.

If six is that final number,

-together you will go home with £4,000.

-Thank you.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Punch in the number six. Good luck.

-Thank you.

-Oh.

-Oh.

-Oooh.

-It's not there.

I'm sorry that's not the final code number.

-But that is not the end of the game.

-OK.

-Let's rejoin Martin.

-OK.

-Sorry!

-It wasn't right.

But look at that keypad.

You've got rid of another number and you are answering questions

so confidently, so well, that it's still up for grabs.

You can still do it. OK, are you ready for your next three answers?

-Yes.

-They are...

Well, balance beam, gymnastics.

Yeah, Jimmy Carter was a president

-of the United States.

-He was, yes.

-Peanuts, wasn't it?

-He is.

-I think he's a peanut farmer. A tomato.

-That's red.

-And a fruit.

-And a fruit.

Tomato might be a little vague, though,

couldn't it? Jimmy Carter.

Shall we go for Jimmy Carter?

-Jimmy Carter.

-Jimmy Carter.

OK, let's have a look at the question.

-Oh, last.

-Oh, last. Oh, my goodness.

Oh, gosh.

When else have they set foot on the moon?

I think that was the 1980s.

-OK.

-I think.

-When was Jimmy Carter

president? Would it have been...

-It was before Ronald Reagan.

-Yes.

-He was in the '80s.

-He was in the '80s.

-Shall we go incorrect?

-I'd go incorrect.

We think it's incorrect.

That's why this round is so

-difficult.

-It is, yes.

-No context.

Just that question. That's all you get.

We're going to put that down as an incorrect answer.

If it's the correct answer,

then despite all of the hard work

you've put in, it's back to

-Eastbourne, back to East Sussex.

-OK.

We want this to go red.

Was Jimmy Carter the US president

when man last set foot on the moon?

-Yes.

-Oh, my goodness!

-Well done!

Well done! Lesley, tell us more.

Yes, you were absolutely right Jimmy Carter was a

peanut farmer and then became the president before Ronald Reagan.

The US president when man last set foot on the moon and the US

president when they first set foot on the moon was Richard Nixon.

The great news is we can get rid of Nixon.

We can get rid of that incorrect answer.

And it leaves us with two,

one of which must be the correct answer.

Tomato or balance beam, we can only look at one at a time.

-Which one's it going to be?

-We'll go for tomato, please.

Let's open the question behind tomato.

-BOTH:

-That's beetroot.

Now that was simultaneous.

-You both got that.

-We went to Poland together last year.

-OK, this is the perfect question for you.

-Exactly.

We want to mark this as an incorrect answer.

We can't change our minds on that.

That means balance beam must be the correct answer,

so we can have a look at balance beam, see how it makes you feel.

Is it Olga Korbut? She did the balance beam, didn't she?

I don't remember seeing any men doing that sort of thing.

-No, I don't know.

-So, it must be right.

Let's hope tomato is incorrect.

-Balance beam is correct.

-Yes.

We want tomato to go red.

-BOTH:

-Yes!

Excellent, utter confidence there. You knew.

Your trip to Poland, that was money

-well spent.

-That was.

-Lesley.

Yes, you looked at each other, synchronised quizzing.

Not only did you know that tomato was wrong,

but that beetroot is the correct answer.

And then the balance beam question.

You confirmed this as the correct pair

without having seen the question.

Uneven bar, sometimes known in the UK as asymmetric bars.

OK, this is a very exciting time.

We've now got six

digits left on the keypad.

There is just one slot to fill.

You are answering questions like absolute troopers,

buying yourself the opportunity to try another number

and again, if it's in there, the £4,000 is yours.

-What's the next number you're going to pick?

-Nine.

-Nine.

-Yes, please.

-And who is going to join me down there?

-Be me?

-You again.

-Tina again.

-Yes.

-OK, let's go.

-Tina, you've chosen the number nine...

-Yes.

-..as the last number to put into the code.

-Yes.

If it's there, you and Martin will leave today

-with £4,000 between you.

-OK.

-Punch in the number nine.

-My goodness. Fingers crossed.

Come on.

-Oh! Sorry.

-I'm so sorry. But the game doesn't end here.

We can play again. Let's rejoin Martin.

BUZZER

Oh, no.

Yes, sadly, at this cliff-hanger of a moment, that sound means

we have to stop, just one correct number away from winning £4,000.

-Do you think you can hold on?

-I think we can, definitely.

For £4,000.

-Yeah.

-I think so too. We wish you the very best of luck.

Please be sure to join us next week

to find out if they can do it.

Lesley, how exciting.

It's thrilling, I'm really looking forward to seeing you back next time

-and hopefully you'll open the safe.

-BOTH:

-Thank you.

Fingers crossed and thank you to you for watching. Goodbye.
