Episode 18 The Code

Hello and welcome to The Code.

Locked in this safe is £6,500.

To open the safe and win the money,

contestants just need to crack a three-digit code.

But every time someone fails,

more money goes into the safe and the jackpot gets higher and higher.

Now, last time, Julie and Michael,

work colleagues from Teesside,

had great momentum going on, with one number in their code -

the number 1 - before we ran out of time.

So let's welcome them back to see if they can crack the code.

Here they come again.

Lovely to see you, Julie. How are you?

-All right, fine.

-Good to see you.

-How are you there, Michael?

-Have you been swotting up?

-Yes.

-Absolutely.

Oh, good. Glad to hear it.

Although, you know what, you were doing pretty well as it was.

Let's just remind ourselves about you.

From Teesside, as we said,

and working for the taxman?

That's correct.

Julie, you're the boss?

You're kind of Michael's manager, is that right?

-Yes.

-Yeah.

-To a certain extent?

-In a fashion.

-Yeah.

In a fashion. But when it comes to quizzing, Michael,

-that's your...?

-That's my realm, yeah.

Actually, Julie, you were doing pretty well yourself.

-Thank you.

-You were holding your own.

Certainly answering some of those questions,

coming up with good knowledge.

-You're happy with the way it's been so far?

-Yes.

I understand that, whatever you guys earn, you'll be taking 50% of it,

very much like the taxman.

Yeah.

Before we get cracking, let me reintroduce our resident savant -

Lesley Brewis.

Welcome back, Julie and Michael.

You were playing flawlessly yesterday.

And if you keep on playing like that,

I have no doubt you will be opening the safe.

-Good luck.

-Hopefully.

-Thank you.

OK, we'll remind ourselves where we are as well.

Oh, my goodness - look at this.

There are four digits left

and only two slots left,

and still playing the game at the stage where you get to see

two questions before you have to make your decision.

-You've been canny, I think...

-Yes.

-..is the term.

OK, Julie, Michael, here are your next three answers.

Only one correct answer, that's the one we're looking for at this stage.

You can open two questions before you have to commit.

-Lancelot Brown is Capability Brown, the gardener.

-Yeah.

And King cobra, of course, is the snake.

What do you prefer?

-Let's go with Lancelot Brown.

-Yeah,

and hope it is just how he's known,

-not any particular fact about his garden.

-Yeah!

OK, let's have a look at the

question behind Lancelot Brown.

Sounds plausible.

-Capability would fit in with that.

-Yeah.

-Confident on that, but obviously look at another one.

-Yeah.

OK, which one would you like to look at next?

-Try King cobra.

-Yeah.

-It's not that.

-No, it's not.

It's probably something like a taipan or a mamba.

I was just about to say the taipan.

-Yeah.

-That rings a bell.

It's not a King cobra.

You happy with the second one being right?

-Cos that sort of describes Capability.

-Yeah.

That's his nickname.

It is definitely not the top one.

All right, so, yeah, lock in Lancelot Brown.

We're going to lock in Lancelot Brown

as our correct answer.

It means we can open the question behind Asia

and hopefully see what feels like an incorrect answer.

Let's have a look.

-I have not heard of that...

-Never.

..but ME might be Mexico.

I don't know.

-It's not ringing any bells...

-No.

..but it hasn't shaken your belief.

Not 100%, but fairly confident.

OK, Lancelot Brown is the answer

that we've selected as being correct.

If it is correct, Julie and Michael,

you get the chance to enter

another digit into The Code.

So is Lancelot Brown

the correct answer?

-BOTH:

-Yes!

Excellent stuff. Lesley?

Yes, very well done.

Excellent breadth of knowledge.

When you said that that was Lancelot Brown, Capability Brown,

before you even saw the question, I knew you'd be safe on that one.

Yes, he used to tell his clients that their land had the capability

for improvement.

King cobra, not the right answer there.

Again, you not only dismissed that as incorrect,

you also gave us the correct answer.

When you said that,

I'm writing tick, tick, tick

all over my piece of paper.

It is the taipan, the inland taipan.

The inland taipan's venom is 50 times as potent as a cobra's

and there's enough venom in the bite of sufficient deadliness

to kill 100 adults.

Wow.

And Asia not the right place there.

You had the right idea when you were talking about Mexico.

It is not specifically Mexico, it's South America.

It's the acronym for the Mercado Comum do Sul.

Thank you, Lesley.

How is that feeling right now?

Let's have a look and remind ourselves.

One number in the code.

2, 4, 6, 8 -

which one are you going to pick? I know it doesn't rhyme.

-Number 2, please.

-The number 2?

-Go for it.

It's an evens chance now.

Is it in the second box?

It's not.

Is it there in the third and final box?

-Yes!

-It's there.

And only three numbers left to pick from,

but there is the slight problem that

now we are at the trickiest bit of the quiz.

As always, we're going to get three answers up there,

but only one of them can be correct.

And you only get to see the questions one at a time

before you have to make a decision.

Much, much trickier.

-Are you ready? BOTH:

-Yes.

Come on, we can do this.

Your next three answers...

Only one of those is correct.

-Family Affairs, a soap opera.

-Yeah?

What would you prefer?

-Oasis.

-We'll try Oasis, please.

We'd like to look at the question behind Oasis.

-I don't think it will be them.

-No.

They've had a few singles,

but not... Mainly an album band.

I can't thank who it would be.

No, that's bothering me because,

in the early '90s,

they were very, very popular.

Take That's a possibility.

-Yeah, you have...

-They had some when they came back as well.

They were hugely popular,

weren't they?

They only had a spell of two or three years

when their big singles all came out together.

They've not really had a big single...

-Five years consecutively.

-..since that period.

Cos it's a British Single of the Year,

so there can't be one or two in the one year.

-I would rule that out.

-OK.

OK, we're going to discard that

as an incorrect answer.

That's it, it's gone.

-Oh, no.

-That is out of play.

Which one would you like to see next?

-Unite?

-Unite, yeah,

-cos Family Affairs could be anything.

-OK.

The question behind Unite, please.

It's either Unite or Unison.

Haven't got a clue.

Which one did the TGWU become?

-Was that Unite?

-Unite.

-Unison is like...

-Nurses and...

-..more public sector stuff.

-Yeah.

-Yeah, I think that it is...Unite.

-OK.

Could be Unison, but I think it's more likely to be Unite.

I think I would lock that in as correct.

OK, we want to lock in Unite

as our correct answer,

to give us a one-in-three chance

to complete the code

and take away £6,500.

-So no pressure(!)

-No pressure(!)

-Let's lock it in.

-Oh, goodness.

It's locked in.

Let's have a look at the question behind Family Affairs.

-They were in Footballers' Wives.

-Were they?

-Yeah.

Chardonnay certainly was.

If we discount that,

it has to be one of the two others.

50-50.

-And you're most confident still...

-Yeah.

-..about Unite being the correct answer?

-Yeah.

We want Unite to go green.

If it goes red, instant elimination,

and that is too brutal for us.

So make Unite our correct answer.

-BOTH:

-Yes!

-LESLEY:

-This is great work.

These are not easy questions.

You're showing knowledge across a wide range of subjects,

Julie and Michael.

The correct answer, then, Unite.

He worked on the Liverpool docks

before becoming a union official.

Family Affairs, you know that that's Footballers' Wives,

the story of the complicated lives

of the spouses and staff.

Can you remember the name of the football club?

Was it Earls Park?

It was Earls Park.

I had a feeling you might come up with that one.

Extra point for that!

A Lesley point for that one.

Yes, Earls Park Football Club.

When Tanya Turner, one of the main characters,

went to prison in the show,

can you remember which programme she popped up in?

Yes, Bad Girls.

Bad Girls. Another Lesley point.

There we go.

And Oasis, you had a little bit of a discussion about this one.

The correct answer is Take That,

which you mentioned when you were discussing the question.

Take That had Brit Awards for British Single of the Year

in 1993 for Could It Be Magic,

1994 for Pray,

1996 for Back For Good

and then, as you were discussing,

they had their comeback.

In 2007, they won for Patience

and 2008 for Shine.

Nothing is tripping you up so far.

Fingers crossed that you get the next number in the code.

Yes, indeed. 1-blank-2.

And there are only three numbers left on the keypad.

Which number is it going to be?

-8?

-Yeah, 8.

-Yeah, 8.

-And who is going to join me at the safe?

I will.

-Michael, let's make our way to the safe.

-OK.

Julie and Michael, you've chosen the number 8.

If 8 is the final number of your code,

then you are about to walk home with £6,500.

-Michael, are you ready?

-Yeah.

Hit the number 8.

There it goes.

The number that we're looking for is 8 to complete the code...

..1-8-2

and give Julie and Michael £6,500

to do whatever they want with.

Is the last number in the code 8?

OK. Not a yes.

Let's go back.

That's fine.

Look where you've got yourselves to.

It's got to be either 4 or 6.

Get this question right,

you've got a 50-50 shot

of choosing the right number.

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

-Winston Churchill, could be about his...

-How many times?

How many times the prime minister? What years?

Won the Nobel Prize for Literature.

-Try him?

-Yeah.

We know a few things about him.

-We'll try Winston Churchill.

-OK.

-I don't think it's him.

-No, I don't.

It might be Rudyard Kipling, that rings a vague bell.

-I've never heard that associated with him.

-Not at all.

I've never heard cricket mentioned.

Later on, Ted Heath became a sailor

and they always mention that.

They never mentioned cricket

-about Churchill.

-Not with him.

I would rule it out.

We want to discard that as an incorrect answer?

-Yeah.

-Please.

-Let's do that.

That's now out of play.

Where would you like to go next?

I know a few chess players.

I know the current world champion.

Do you want to do chess, then?

-I'll try chess, yeah.

-OK.

The question behind chess, please.

I know that.

Bob Nudd is a fisherman.

So it's not chess?

He won the World Angling Championship loads of times.

Right, OK.

Yeah, we'll definitely rule that one out.

So which one do you want to mark down as the correct answer here?

It will have to be Paris, because chess is definitely wrong.

By the process of elimination,

we are going to lock in Paris as our correct answer.

Let's have a look at the question behind Paris and, hopefully,

that feels like the right answer.

I'm fairly confident.

The French national stadium in Paris

is called Saint-Denis.

I'm not 100%, but it seems likely.

-That feels strong? It's giving you a warm feeling?

-Yeah.

I hope that's right

because that gives us a 50-50 shot

at completing the code.

£6,500 waiting.

Is Paris the right answer?

(Come on.)

Yes!

-Yes! Yes!

-How many times have we said that?

I know. Listen, I don't mind.

I don't mean hearing that.

"Yes" is good. Lesley?

I don't know whether any topic's going to trip you up.

You've got information on pretty nearly everything.

Yes, Paris the correct answer.

St Denis martyred in the third century,

and you mentioned the stadium,

which is the Stade de France

in the Saint-Denis area.

Winston Churchill, not the right answer.

Before this question came up you mentioned that

Winston Churchill had won the Nobel Prize for literature and I

wondered whether that might catch you out, but Winston Churchill

never played any first-class cricket games.

The correct answer is Samuel Beckett.

Samuel Beckett played two games of first-class cricket for

Dublin University in 1925 and 1926.

Chess not the right answer.

You came in straight away with the correct answer for this one.

You know that Bob Nudd is a big name in angling, fishing.

He's won the World Freshwater Angling Championship four times.

And John Wilson was named the greatest angler of all time

by the Angling Times in 2004.

Thank you, Lesley, yes.

Only one contestant has ever had to go for all ten numbers in

order to open the safe - that was "Long Haul Paul" -

but we don't want to do that with you guys.

We've got the chance to stop one short of finding out about

that last question.

I'd rather not have to deal with it at all.

However, our ninth question successfully answered gives

you the chance to choose between 4 and 6 to slot into the code

there and give yourselves £6,500.

-6 I'm thinking.

-I was thinking 6.

-You're thinking 6.

-6.

-Who's going to join me at the safe?

-I will.

-Michael.

Michael, let's go to the safe.

Julie and Michael, you've chosen the number 6.

If 6 is the final number, you will be walking away today with £6,500.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Punch in that number.

-Right.

This has got to be it. Don't make us go again.

We've done all the hard work.

Now we want the reward.

We want it to be 162 for Julie and Michael to take

away £6,500 after nine questions.

Is the final number 6?

THEY LAUGH

-Grab the handle. Pull it open.

-Wow.

What do you see in there?

Lots and lots of lovely money.

There you go. Well done.

-Brilliant. Absolutely wonderful.

-OK. Absolutely brilliant.

Right, just so we can check that the code in there was

always the same all along, there it is.

There's your code, 162.

-You get to have that.

-Thank you.

Michael, Julie, that was absolutely fantastic and thank you for

saving my heart from going through another question.

If you hadn't made it that time, I'm not sure I could have taken it.

Incredible. Lesley, how about that?

That was a masterclass. Brilliant, brilliant play from both of you.

-I'm so pleased that you won. Well done.

-Thank you very much.

-Thank you.

-I couldn't be more pleased for you both.

Julie, Michael, you have cracked the code and therefore it is my

great honour and my great delight to say that we have to...

And your money, we have to wish you a goodbye. Thank you so much.

-Thank you.

-Lovely to meet you.

-Thank you very much.

-There you go.

-Michael.

-Thank you.

-Thanks.

That was what you call total quizzing.

Huge congratulations to Julie and Michael.

They walk away with £6,500. The jackpot has been won.

That means a fresh £3,000 goes into the safe.

So let's see if our next team can do what Julie and Michael have

done and crack the code.

-Suzanne, how are you? Lovely to see you.

-And you. Thank you.

-And, Rob.

-Hello.

-Lovely to see you.

Now, you're both from different bits of North Yorkshire, is that right?

-Knaresborough?

-That's right.

-And also from Thirsk, is that right?

-That's correct.

-How do you guys know each other?

-We are brother and sister.

-Big sister, little brother.

-OK, so you've known each other for a long time.

-Yeah.

-A long time.

-Tell me about yourselves. What do you like to do?

-I play netball.

I played netball for my local team, the Hawks, for about 20 years now.

-Big shout out to the Hawks...

-Yeah.

-..wherever they are.

Hi, guys. How about you, Rob? Big sis is very sporty. Are you as well?

I definitely was when I was younger.

Yes, I was a gymnast and a tumbler and I took up diving.

I played pool for my county.

-And I also played a mind game called Tantrix.

-Fantastic.

Well, listen, Suzanne, Rob,

it's lovely to have you here in the studio.

You might have noticed that there is a very happy looking lady and

gentleman going past you with £6,500.

As you were coming in they were going out,

which means that the jackpot has been won

and that means we reset the jackpot and put £3,000 into the safe.

Still not a bad sum of money between the two of you.

-You'd be happy with that.

-Absolutely, yeah.

-Any day of the week.

-Brilliant. OK. We're going to reset the code.

If you're ready, Suzanne and Rob,

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

Only one of those is the correct answer -

that's the one we are trying to find -

and at this point you can open all three questions.

So it will start at the top

with the question behind Horse.

-Scotsman.

-It's the Flying Scotsman.

I've never heard of the flying horse being a train.

-No. I don't think so.

-We'll see what the next one is.

No. OK, let's have a look at the question behind Puff.

-Choux pastry.

-That will be choux pastry.

-OK.

And the final question behind S, please?

-SOS. Dot, dot, dot, dash, dash, dash.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-OK.

Which one of these would you like to lock in as the correct answer?

S, please.

If S is the correct answer,

it will turn green and it will give

you the first chance to try a number,

see if it's there in the code.

Is S our correct answer?

-Yay!

-It is, yes. You were confident about that all the way.

-Yes.

Lesley.

You were happy with that question,

yes, and you told us that SOS is dot, dot, dot, dash, dash, dash,

dot, dot, dot.

S being three dots, then.

On the horse question, you said that you couldn't think of

a flying horse but you remembered the Flying Scotsman.

Yes, the locomotive built in 1923,

but a service that dates back to the 1860s.

The very first journey on that service included

a half-hour stop at York for lunch. Puff, not the right answer.

You both, Rob and Suzanne, knew that

the correct answer for that is choux.

Choux, a light, crispy sort of pastry, and puff,

more layered and buttery.

Thank you, Lesley.

Right, Suzanne and Rob, that gives you the chance now to choose

a number from the digit keypad and see if it's there in the code.

0 to 9, ten different digits to choose from.

-You choose.

-0 please, Matt.

-0. Is 0 in our code?

Let's have a look. Is it in the first box?

No.

Is it in the second box?

Not there. Is it in the third and final box?

-No.

-OK.

There is no 0 in your code. How are you feeling about that?

That's not too bad because it gives us another shot at round one, where

-we can see all the questions, so...

-You've seen the whole thing before.

You're absolutely right,

it's not bad to get rid of a few,

whittle them down before it gets really tough.

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

So we'll start at the top.

The question behind Alan Partridge, please.

-I don't know.

-I don't know either.

He did bring out something recently with Steve Coogan.

-I'm not sure on that one.

-OK. The question behind Swansea, please.

-Yes, it is.

-OK. We'll look at the third one, anyway.

-Yeah.

-OK.

Let's have a look at the question behind

a drone.

I think it was a pigeon or something like that.

-I remember them having to land on the river.

-OK.

-But I did some training in Mumbles, which is in Swansea.

-OK.

-OK.

-More than happy with that answer.

We're going to lock in Swansea as

our correct answer.

If it's correct, we get another chance to try a digit in the code,

see if it's there.

If it's not correct, it will go red

and we have to send Rob and Suzanne home. We don't want that.

Is Swansea our correct answer?

-Yes. All over it. All over it.

-Well done.

-Very well done.

You're working well together as a team.

Suzanne, you remembered that Mumbles is a district of Swansea,

famous for the Swansea Mumbles railway,

the world's first passenger railway service.

Alan Partridge, not the correct answer here.

The correct answer... Matt, do you know this one?

It's David Brent.

It is David Brent in a mockumentary

about his time with his band Foregone Conclusion.

Drone, not the right answer.

Suzanne, you mentioned a pigeon so you knew that this was about birds.

It's a flock of geese.

That story has inspired a film starring Tom Hanks

-called Sully.

-Excellent. Well, you guys are flying brilliantly

at the moment. Two questions gone.

The second one buys you a chance to try another number into the

keypad, see if it's there. 0 has gone. What would you like next?

-You go.

-3, please.

-The number 3. Is it there in our code?

Let's have a look...

In the first box.

No. Is it there in the second box?

No. Is it there in the third and final box?

No.

-OK, two numbers out of the way.

-OK.

-OK.

Still good. If you're ready,

we'll move on and have a look at

your next three answers.

The question behind Italy.

Silver Spoon would kind of suggest affluence but I don't know.

-I don't know.

-No.

-First little bit of stumpage, maybe.

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

see if that helps.

-I would have said mazes.

-Mazes.

-Mazes, yeah.

-I don't think it's treehouses.

-No.

OK, let's have a look at the

question behind Gerard Butler.

I don't think it was Gerard Butler. Definitely not. Second one down,

-definitely not treehouse.

-Yeah.

So we think that Italy is to do with The Silver Spoon.

I'd be going to Italy out of that combination.

Let's go with that, then.

-We're going to lock in Italy as the correct answer.

-Yes, please.

-Yes, please.

-OK, let's lock it in.

-Not too sure about this one, are you?

-No.

-No, not at all.

-This is the first bit of a wobble.

-Bit of a wobble, yeah.

So, is Italy our correct answer?

-Phew! Well done.

-You weren't so sure on these.

You knew treehouse was wrong, you felt that Gerard Butler was wrong,

therefore Italy had to be the correct answer.

It comes from Il Cucchiaio D'Argento,

a cookbook that features around 2,000 Italian recipes

that was first published in 1950.

Treehouse is not the correct answer there. The right answer is maze.

There are treehouses in the grounds of stately homes,

castles. Alnwick Castle has a particularly famous treehouse.

Gerard Butler, this one felt wrong to you. I don't think you

knew who the answer was. It is Jonny Lee Miller, and her second

husband, Billy Bob Thornton.

She must like people with three names because she then married

William Bradley Pitt, better known as Brad Pitt.

Thank you, Lesley.

Yes. A little bit of a wobble but stabilisers applied at the

end there to get the right answer.

Now can we get the right number to go with it?

3 and 0 have gone. Which one do you want to pick next?

-Number 2, please.

-Number 2. Is number 2 there in our code?

Is it there in the first box?

No number 2. Is it there in the second box?

Is it there in the third and final box?

-OK.

-OK.

Three down, seven left. Skilfully avoiding numbers in the code

at the earliest, easiest stage of the quiz.

Very, very wise, if indeed you knew

that's what the numbers were.

They're random and you don't know.

So we are ready now for our next three answers. Here we go.

Suzanne, Rob, let's have a look.

The question behind A Bridge Too Far.

-Might be. I'm not sure. It sounds like a war kind of film.

-Yeah.

Not too confident with that one.

The question though now behind One Step Beyond.

-That could be right.

-It could be right.

-Yeah.

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

the one behind jumping the shark.

Now?

LAUGHTER

-I've never heard of jumping the shark.

-No, I've never heard that.

I think I'd know the answer to the top one,

if the answer was there in front of me.

And One Step Beyond was by The Specials, wasn't it?

-It was, it definitely was.

-Shall we go with that, then?

I'm happy with that. I'm happy with the second one, One Step Beyond.

We'll lock in One Step Beyond, please, Matt.

We're going to lock in One Step Beyond

as our correct answer.

In if it's correct,

we get a fourth chance to choose a number from the code.

So far, three numbers selected, none of them up there.

Is One Step Beyond the correct answer?

-Oh, no!

-Oh!

It's not right.

Let's find out which one is correct.

Jumping the shark.

-I would never have known that.

-Oh, I'm so sorry, guys.

Lesley?

I'm sorry, you just came up against something you weren't familiar with.

Yes, jumping the shark,

that's when The Fonz in Happy Days literally jumps over

a shark when waterskiing, and it's come to mean a point in

a programme where they are using gimmicks to try to get back

viewers' interest once the quality of the programme has declined.

Let's look at the wrong answers up on the board.

A Bridge Too Far, it is a war film, but it's about

Operation Market Garden, which was the attempt in 1944 to capture

several bridges to allow the Allies a quick route into Germany.

The correct answer is the Dam Busters,

about the dams in the Ruhr Valley and the Lancaster bombers

that were flown to try to destroy the dams.

One Step Beyond, that was the answer you went for -

-One Step Beyond was by Madness.

-Oh!

Specials was the name of the debut album by The Specials,

produced by Elvis Costello.

I'm sure, Matt, you knew the answer to that one.

Oh, it's my favourite band!

But I could do nothing, I was standing here,

there was nothing I could do for you,

and I so desperately wanted you to carry on going,

because you were doing so brilliantly up to that point,

but that's the reality. If it comes to it, you get three questions you

genuinely don't know, doesn't matter which stage of the quiz you're at.

I'm so sorry. Have you enjoyed yourselves, anyway?

-Yes, we have, thank you.

-Oh, good, OK.

Well, you are excellent sports, as we know. But I'm afraid,

on this occasion, Suzanne and Rob,

you've failed to crack the code and, sadly, you have to leave the game.

-Thank you so much for playing. Goodbye.

-Thank you, bye.

-Goodbye, Suzanne. Goodbye, Rob, cheers.

-Thank you.

Yeah, they had the look of Olympic codebreakers,

but unfortunately no medals for Rob and Suzanne.

Their loss, though, our next team's gain

because the jackpot now goes higher.

So, let's meet the next team hoping to crack the code.

-Lovely to see you. How are you? Jonathan.

-Good, thank you.

-Ben.

-Hi.

-And Ricky.

-Hi.

Lovely to have you here with us. From Peterborough...

-I live in Peterborough.

-Spalding in Lincolnshire, and also Spalding?

And also Spalding, yeah.

There we go, right, so how do you guys know each other?

We've known each other since school, some would say far too long.

It was probably about ten years ago that we left school, I would say...

-Yeah!

-Is this a playground thing, or did you do sports together?

Well, we did all of that, really, you know, sports,

we all played rugby and that sort of thing at school,

then known each other ever since, quizzing.

-So, quizzing is the thing that keeps the bond together?

-It is, yes.

That's the thing that you do.

-And who is the master quizzer, would you say?

-I'm going to say him...

-Oh, you have as well, Ben.

-Thanks very much!

There you go, Ricky, you've been elected!

Now, Rob and Suzanne, the team who came before you,

failed to crack the code.

Bad news for them, great news for you, because it means

another £500 is added to the pot

and that makes a total of £3,500.

-That's not too bad at all, is it?

-Not bad.

You can work out the maths, I don't want to know about that.

Let's reset the code.

There we go, three blanks, you need to turn those into three numbers.

Do that, the safe will open, you'll win the money.

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

Let's start at the top, the question behind Bruno Tonioli.

-Well, one did, it's probably Len Goodman.

-It is.

I'm a huge Strictly fan, and it is definitely not Bruno Tonioli.

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

Well, I'm perfectly happy that Tokyo is hosting 2020 Olympics,

in the summer, and I also believe it is hosting the next Rugby World Cup.

-Can't fault that.

-Sounds right to me.

-All happy with that?

Let's have a look, nevertheless, at the last one.

-I suspect that's hard.

-Definitely hard.

-Yup.

OK, we need to lock in, then, the one correct answer from that.

-Which one is it going to be?

-Shall we lock in Japan?

-Yup, safe bet.

-Japan.

Locking in Japan as our correct answer.

If it is correct, we can move on and choose our first digit

from the keypad, see if it's there in the code.

Is Japan our correct answer?

Of course it is, good work.

Yes, well done, you dispatched those ones very easily.

Japan, the correct answer,

Tokyo having previously held the Olympics in 1964.

Bruno Tonioli, not the right answer,

you knew this one straightaway. And, Ben, you've admitted now that

you're a Strictly expert, so it would be embarrassing if you

didn't know that Len Goodman is the right answer there.

His last show was the Christmas special in 2016.

Heavy, not the right answer. Again, you not only knew that

this one was wrong, you also gave us the correct answer.

You all remembered that the H stands for hard

and the B for black. Very well done, good start.

-Thank you.

-And we have the chance now to pick a number,

see if it's there in the code.

And there's the keypad with numbers between 0 and 9,

which one do you fancy?

Well, my daughter tells me that the first number is going to be 8,

so I have to do what she says.

-What's her name?

-Her name is Jenny.

-So, you can blame Jenny.

-I can blame Jenny, yeah.

Let's see, is Jenny's number 8 up there? Let's have a look.

In the first box...

Not there. Is it there in the second box?

Not there. Is it there in the third and final box?

-Jenny!

-You need to have a word with Jenny!

-Jenny, what's going on?

Well, look, no, it's a good thing.

It discounts some numbers early on,

while the game is still relatively easy.

Jonathan, Ben, Ricky, let's have a look at your next three answers.

So, we'll start at the very top. The question behind Philip, please.

-I think I have heard that, yeah.

-You think it might be Philip?

I think it might be Philip, yes.

Well, we can look at the other questions now to confirm it,

make us feel better.

Let's have a look at the question behind Central.

The Circle, isn't it? But that would be just after...

-No, that would be after Central.

-No, because it's Bakerloo.

-Bakerloo, good. It can't be Central.

-It can't be Central.

Let's have a look at the question behind candles.

-Barrels.

-Barrels, can't be that one.

OK, we need to get one correct answer here.

-Which one's it going to be?

-Well, it must...

-It's going to have to be...

-Theresa May.

-Process of elimination.

-Philip.

OK, we're going to lock in Philip.

So, is Philip

our correct answer?

It is.

Yes, well done. That one rang true for you, in particular,

Ricky remembered that Philip

may very well be Theresa May's husband,

and indeed he is.

And Central line, again, Ricky,

you came in with the correct answer, that's Bakerloo.

Waterloo & City is the last in alphabetical order.

And candles, not the correct answer.

Traditionally, made by a cooper, barrels.

Candles would be a chandler.

Barrels of confidence coming from you guys!

OK, number 8 has gone already.

Which one are you going to try?

-Jenny said 8.

-She also said 4.

-Well, shall we...

Jenny said 4?

She was so successful the first time, we should go for number 4.

The number 4, let's have a look.

Is the number 4 there in our code? Let's have a look.

In the first box....

No.

Is it there in the second box?

No. Is it there in the third box?

No, it's not.

But at least what she's doing is discounting numbers at

the easy stage of the game, when you can still see all three questions.

So, bravo, Jenny! Let's have a look at your next three answers.

We'll start at the top, the question behind Narcissus.

-No.

-Icarus?

-I think Icarus was the son of Daedalus.

Let's have a look at the question behind dangerous.

I think that's expensive.

I was going to say, I can't see Belgravia being dangerous!

Not happy with that one. Let's have a look at the final question,

the one behind Beauty.

-Areas of Natural Beauty is the...

-Outstanding.

-Outstanding Natural Beauty, yes.

-So, we think Beauty.

We think that's the right answer, let's lock it in.

OK, we want Beauty to turn green,

to give Jenny another chance to pick a number, which will avoid

the code, possibly, and do you all a favour, genuinely.

So, is Beauty our correct answer?

-Yes!

-Very much a group effort on these questions.

Yes, Beauty, the correct answer.

Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which, Ben, you remembered.

About a fifth of the UK is classed to be in

an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Narcissus, the wrong answer. Jonathan and Ricky,

you both knew the correct answer here, which is Icarus.

And dangerous, not the right answer. You rightly said that

Eaton Square in Belgravia doesn't sound particularly dangerous.

And, Jonathan, you gave the correct answer, which is expensive.

Well done, again, team effort.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

Jenny, now, is either being very smart on your behalf

or is being unlucky because, so far, two numbers, 4 and 8,

have gone, neither of them in the code.

Which one do you want to go for next?

Well, she did say the whole code was 842,

so I reckon we should go for 2 to finish it off.

-OK.

-Agreed.

OK, 842, says Jenny. 8 and 4 aren't there, but is 2?

Let's have a look. Is it in the first box?

It's not there. Is it there in the second box?

No. Is Jenny's number 2 there in the third box?

-Well, we'll take that.

-She is doing you proud!

So, what you're doing, again, is avoiding numbers in the code

so you can carry on playing at the easiest level of the quiz.

Well done, Jenny, we like it.

I'm going to call you Team Turbo Quiz because of the rapid rate

that you're working your way through these rounds.

Team Turbo Quiz, here are your fourth set of answers.

We'll start at the top, with the question behind tiddlywinks.

-I can't believe it's tiddlywinks.

-No, it's chess, I'm pretty sure.

-I think it's chess.

-Let's have a look at the question behind Madonna.

It's certainly possible

because Madonna Ciccone was certainly raised Catholic.

-Yes.

-It wouldn't be Sinead O'Connor?

Well, that might be a good shout, Sinead O'Connor.

That's thrown a fly in my ointment!

Possibly. It just rings a bell.

OK, a bell is ringing.

Let's see what the question is behind Sunderland.

Hull, Kingston-upon-Hull.

Definitely Hull, I've been listening and hearing it

-on the radio recently.

-OK. So, it has to be Madonna.

Process of elimination, Madonna has to be right.

Are you OK with that, Ben?

I have no 100% confidence in Sinead O'Connor, so...

Can I check with Rick, how happy are you that it's chess?

I can't believe 12th-century pieces...

Well, if it's not chess, it ain't tiddlywinks.

-Right, well, we'll go for Madonna.

-We'll go for Madonna.

I'm quite happy with that.

We have cross-checked, everybody is in agreement.

We think Madonna is the correct answer.

Let's lock it in.

Three numbers down on the keypad now, nothing in the code.

Is this going to be the one that makes the difference?

Only if it goes green. Is Madonna our correct answer?

-Yes!

-I was worried there!

That was the first time I've seen you all a bit concerned. Lesley?

Yes, she says she's been excommunicated for blasphemy.

Unusual for someone called Madonna to be in trouble with the Church!

Tiddlywinks, not the correct answer here.

When this one came up, Ricky, you said, "No, I think that's chess."

And that's the correct answer, the famous Lewis chessmen, some of them

are in the British Museum and some in the National Museum of Scotland.

And Sunderland, not the right answer.

Ben, you remembered the correct answer to this,

having heard all about it, the answer is Hull.

It's been inspired by the European City of Culture.

Well, OK, fantastic work.

A little bit of a wobble there,

but it didn't make any difference in the long run.

Now, how long can you carry on avoiding the code?

Which number are we going to go for next?

-We've run out of Jenny's numbers now.

-I have nothing else.

-Well, we'll stick with the evens. Go with 6.

-Yup.

-OK.

Number 6, let's find out if it's in the code.

Is it there in the first box?

No. Is it there in the second box?

There is no number 6 there. How about the third and final box?

Still no number 6.

2, 4, 6, 8 all gone. Now all we have to do is keep

answering questions correctly, find the correct answers.

KLAXON

What we'll have to do is carry on tomorrow

because that sound means we have run out of time.

We are going to have to wait and see if you can crack the code tomorrow.

You guys feeling confident?

-Of course we are.

-Yes, absolutely.

-Yes.

-That's what I like to see!

That is confident. Lesley, thank you for all of your knowledge, as usual.

You're very welcome.

And you've been almost clinical in your performance today,

and I look forward to you making similarly good progress tomorrow.

-Well done.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

Yes, please join us tomorrow to find out if Jonathan, Ben and Ricky

can match today's fourth winners of the series,

Julie and Michael, who walked off with £6,500.

Thank you so much for watching and goodbye.
