0:00:12 > 0:00:15Hello and welcome to The Code.

0:00:15 > 0:00:17Locked in this safe is £3,500.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20To open the safe and win the money

0:00:20 > 0:00:23contestants just need to crack a three-digit code.

0:00:23 > 0:00:24Every time someone fails,

0:00:24 > 0:00:28more money goes into the safe and the jackpot gets higher and higher.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31Now, last time, Jonathan, Ben, and Ricky

0:00:31 > 0:00:35had picked four numbers that weren't in their code.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37So, let's welcome them back.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44Hello, good afternoon. How are you doing, Jonathan?

0:00:44 > 0:00:46- Very well, thank you. - Good to see you again.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48- Ben...- Hello. - ..and Ricky.- Hi.- How are you?

0:00:48 > 0:00:53Risk assessor, a council visiting officer, and a supply teacher.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55That's right. Peterborough, Spalding, and Spalding.

0:00:55 > 0:00:56Am I correct?

0:00:56 > 0:01:01- Correct!- Oh, phew! What do I get? Did you have a good evening?

0:01:01 > 0:01:04- A very good evening.- Did you use it wisely, opening quiz books?

0:01:04 > 0:01:06- Lots of revision. - Quizzing each other.- Of course.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08Fantastic. Good to hear.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10Listen, you are making great progress

0:01:10 > 0:01:12and we want you to keep doing that.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14But, before we go any further,

0:01:14 > 0:01:16let's reintroduce ourselves to the person shedding light

0:01:16 > 0:01:20on the questions and answers, the wonderful Lesley Brewis.

0:01:20 > 0:01:21Welcome back.

0:01:21 > 0:01:25Now, you were quick and decisive in your decisions yesterday.

0:01:25 > 0:01:26If you carry on in this vein,

0:01:26 > 0:01:29- you stand a big chance of winning the money. Good luck.- Thank you.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Now, let's remind ourselves exactly where we are.

0:01:32 > 0:01:362, 4, 6, 8, all gone from the digital keypad.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39However, nothing up there in the code to show for it.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42Means we're still playing the quiz at the easiest stage.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45Now, if you are ready, Jonathan, Ben and Ricky,

0:01:45 > 0:01:48let's have a look at your next three answers.

0:01:54 > 0:01:58Let's start at the top with the question behind Jack Kerouac.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07I don't know if he did that. I know he wrote On The Road,

0:02:07 > 0:02:11- which would be about that era. - Yeah, as one of the Beat Generation,

0:02:11 > 0:02:12sort of thing they would do.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14OK. We'll have a look at the next one.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17The question behind Jive Talking.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24- Well, that's definitely not that. It's Staying Alive.- Right.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26- There we are. That's a no. - That's definitely wrong.

0:02:26 > 0:02:30And, finally, the question behind Playfully, please.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38I have nothing to contribute to that bottom one at all.

0:02:38 > 0:02:42- That's a tricky one, isn't it?- OK. So, where are we at with these?

0:02:42 > 0:02:44We need to find the one correct answer.

0:02:44 > 0:02:48I think... I would be more inclined to go for the bottom one.

0:02:48 > 0:02:53- As correct. Scherzando.- But I'm not... I'm not certain at all.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56- We're agreed it's Italian, yes? - Yeah, yeah.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00It's definitely not presto, or forte, or fortissimo

0:03:00 > 0:03:03or anything like that. Playfully is definitely not any of those.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05Or legato.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07So, it could be. Process of elimination.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Trying to remember my Latin and I just can't see a stem in that.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12I just can't see a beat poet, Kerouac,

0:03:12 > 0:03:14being nominated for the Nobel Prize for literature.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16- Shall we go bottom one? - I would.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18- Yeah.- We haven't got nothing to lose, so...

0:03:18 > 0:03:23- We're going to lock in Playfully. - Correct.- OK. It's locked in.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27Feels like the first bump in the road for Team Turbo Quiz -

0:03:27 > 0:03:30the first time you've been anything other than 100% confident.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32Is Playfully the correct answer?

0:03:35 > 0:03:38- Well played, Rick. Well played. - The relief is tangible.

0:03:38 > 0:03:43- We didn't know that one.- I had no idea. Wow! Lesley...- What a relief.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45Well done. I'm glad you settled on that as the correct answer.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48Yes, playfully, coming from the Italian "scherzare" to joke.

0:03:50 > 0:03:51Let's look at the other answers.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54Now, I wondered whether Jack Kerouac might catch you out

0:03:54 > 0:03:56because you knew that he was about that era,

0:03:56 > 0:03:58having written On The Road in the 1950s.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01He was never offered the Nobel Prize for literature

0:04:01 > 0:04:05so couldn't decline it. The correct answer is Jean-Paul Sartre.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07Jean-Paul Sartre said that he declined the prize because

0:04:07 > 0:04:10he didn't want to become an institution.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13Let's have a look at the other answer on board there. Jive Talking.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15Now, Ricky, you said the correct answer to this one straight away.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18You knew that was Staying Alive, rather than Jive Talking.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21The film Staying Alive was co-written, co-produced,

0:04:21 > 0:04:24and directed by... Anyone, for a Lesley point?

0:04:24 > 0:04:28- John Schlesinger.- Not the right answer. It's Sylvester Stallone.

0:04:28 > 0:04:32- Oh, really!- Wow!- He was very heavily involved in that film.

0:04:32 > 0:04:36- Good progress. Playfully, well done. - Yes, well done, indeed.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38Now, let's have a look at the keypad.

0:04:38 > 0:04:402, 4, 6, 8, all gone.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Are we going to knock these numbers down and get them out of the way

0:04:43 > 0:04:46before we even have to bother with the harder levels of the quiz?

0:04:46 > 0:04:50- We're going to try and eliminate zero.- Zero.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Is it there? In the first box.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55There is no zero.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57Is there a zero in the second box?

0:05:00 > 0:05:03No! Is it there in the third and final box?

0:05:05 > 0:05:06Oh!

0:05:06 > 0:05:09- There is no zero.- Amazing.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Wow, we are halfway through the numbers in the code,

0:05:11 > 0:05:14halfway through the questions that you've got.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Still nothing up there in the code.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18This much is certain,

0:05:18 > 0:05:20your code is made up of odd numbers.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22Yes.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25Answer five more correct questions, whatever happens,

0:05:25 > 0:05:27the prize will be yours.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29£3,500 we're talking about.

0:05:29 > 0:05:34- Team Turbo Quiz, are you ready for your next three answers?- Absolutely.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Once again, we'll start at the top.

0:05:48 > 0:05:53- Toulouse-Lautrec?- Yeah. Renoir's the wrong era.- OK.- 1920s. So...

0:05:53 > 0:05:55Feel confident about that.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58So, let's open the question behind Hamish McHamish.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09I thought that's a Blackadder character, so...

0:06:09 > 0:06:11No, I don't think it's that.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14- I don't know this.- No, that's... - I don't know this at all.

0:06:14 > 0:06:18- It's possible.- I would think that's more like a dog's name but...

0:06:18 > 0:06:21- Yeah, well.- That's a guess. I don't know.- Well, we're going to move on.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Let's have a look at the question behind Birmingham.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33I didn't know Birmingham had a mayoral election.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35I didn't remember hearing it on the news.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37You'd think it would ring a bell, wouldn't you?

0:06:37 > 0:06:39I think Manchester did.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42- Yeah.- And Liverpool.- So, we're going to rule out the top one.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44Yeah, that's definite. We can all about that one.

0:06:44 > 0:06:48- Greyfriars Bobby is Edinburgh, isn't it?- Yeah, that's not St Andrews.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52I'm leaning towards the middle one.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Well, if you're happy to go with the middle one...

0:06:54 > 0:06:56I think that's the way that we're leaning, isn't it?

0:06:56 > 0:07:00- But we don't know.- Again, we're struggling. We don't know.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03Another bump in the road. We're going middle.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07The votes of the Spalding jury are in,

0:07:07 > 0:07:11we're going to go and lock in Hamish McHamish.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Didn't feel like complete confidence,

0:07:13 > 0:07:15which is what we've had up till now.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18We need Hamish McHamish to be the right answer.

0:07:18 > 0:07:19We need it to go green.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24- I don't know how we got away with that!- Well done, chaps.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27Yeah, I think, getting away with it...

0:07:27 > 0:07:30Team Getting Away With It might be a better name. Lesley.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Yes, getting there through a process of elimination.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34Hamish McHamish, which, Ricky,

0:07:34 > 0:07:36you said sounded more like a dog's name,

0:07:36 > 0:07:37had to be the right answer

0:07:37 > 0:07:40because you knew that Renoir and Birmingham weren't correct.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42You mentioned Greyfriars Bobby, as well.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Exactly as you said, a dog associated with Edinburgh.

0:07:45 > 0:07:46Hamish McHamish,

0:07:46 > 0:07:49famous in St Andrews, had his own section in Waterstones,

0:07:49 > 0:07:53Hamish Recommends, which was full of cat-related literature.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Renoir not the correct answer

0:07:55 > 0:07:57and you gave the right answer to this one,

0:07:57 > 0:07:59which is Toulouse-Lautrec.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02The actor had to wear prosthetics on his legs and walk on his knees

0:08:02 > 0:08:06with his real legs covered by blue socks, to be edited out later on.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08Birmingham not the right answer here. Jonathan,

0:08:08 > 0:08:11you remembered that there's not yet a mayor of Birmingham,

0:08:11 > 0:08:14though the West Midlands and Manchester, which you mentioned,

0:08:14 > 0:08:16will have mayoral elections later this year.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19The correct answer is Bristol.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22- Oh, we scraped through that one, didn't we?- We did, yes.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25You know, don't underestimate the power of little bits

0:08:25 > 0:08:29of information coming together to give you the correct answers.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32So, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, which one is going to be?

0:08:32 > 0:08:34- 3.- Are you happy with 3?

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Yes, absolutely. Let's go for it.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39- For some reason we're going 3. - We're going 3.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Will it be there or will we avoid the code once again?

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Is it there in the first box?

0:08:44 > 0:08:47It's not, is it there in the second box?

0:08:49 > 0:08:50It's not.

0:08:50 > 0:08:54Is the number 3 there in your third and final box?

0:08:55 > 0:08:59- Oh!- Oh!- Well, Hallelujah.- Got there eventually.- We got there eventually.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03There is a number 3. Blank, blank, 3.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06It does mean things become a little bit trickier.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08As before, you'll all see all three answers.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11This time, you'll only see two questions

0:09:11 > 0:09:14before you have to make a decision and commit.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16It does become rather more difficult.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Let's have a look at your next three answers.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Blimey.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29Reads like a sentence. That's irrelevant.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32The order in which you pick these now does become more important.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35- I'd rather leave Cream Pie till last.- OK.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38- Do you want it first, Ricky?- No. I don't care.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40They all mean nothing to me.

0:09:40 > 0:09:42- Yeah.- Just choose whichever one.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47- Bill Bailey.- OK, let's have a look

0:09:47 > 0:09:48at the question behind Bill Bailey.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57- That rings true to me. - That could be a possible.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00It does me, especially that middle one - Noodlemeister.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02He's got wild hair, hasn't he?

0:10:02 > 0:10:03Tangentleman, he does like to do

0:10:03 > 0:10:05- plays on words and things, doesn't he?- He does.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07That sort of rings true at the minute,

0:10:07 > 0:10:08but we need to pick another one,

0:10:08 > 0:10:10- I guess.- We do.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13I picked Bill Bailey, somebody else pick one.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15- Lifts.- Lifts.- Lifts.

0:10:24 > 0:10:28- Well, again, a lot of lifts are called Otis.- Are they?- Yeah.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30Well, there you go then. Job done.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32I'm happy with that.

0:10:32 > 0:10:36- You've seen Otis on lifts.- You seem very confident on that point.- Yeah.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39What do you want to do? We're looking for the one correct answer.

0:10:39 > 0:10:40Let's lock it in.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42We're going to lock in Lifts.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45We're going to lock in Lifts as our correct answer.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48- You seemed very certain about Bill Bailey earlier.- We did as well.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50That rang a bell as well.

0:10:50 > 0:10:51I tell you what we can do,

0:10:51 > 0:10:52we can have a look now at

0:10:52 > 0:10:55the question behind Cream pie.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57It's not going to change anything but it might make us feel

0:10:57 > 0:10:59either better or worse.

0:11:07 > 0:11:11- Money.- It was, yes.- Yes. - Definitely not a cream pie.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14Right, so we're absolutely categorical,

0:11:14 > 0:11:17- we think 'cream pie' is an incorrect cancer.- Yep.

0:11:17 > 0:11:23Lifts is locked in, that can't go anywhere, so, for us to progress,

0:11:23 > 0:11:25is 'lifts' our correct answer?

0:11:30 > 0:11:31Well done, John.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Well done, John. No silly mistakes there.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Too busy looking at the inside of lifts.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38Looking like this, "Oh, yes, Otis."

0:11:38 > 0:11:41- Lesley.- Yes, well done, Jonathan, remembering that Otis is one of

0:11:41 > 0:11:43the largest elevator companies in the world

0:11:43 > 0:11:44helped you with this question.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47This is specifically passenger elevators.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49Otis invented a safety hoist,

0:11:49 > 0:11:52a device to stop the lift from falling.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Bill Bailey not the right answer there.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57He does have some interesting names for his tours such as Part Troll,

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Tinsel Worm and Limboland,

0:11:59 > 0:12:03but these titles belong to Ross Noble.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05No two Ross Noble shows are the same

0:12:05 > 0:12:09as he gets derailed and interrupted by the audience and himself

0:12:09 > 0:12:11during the course of his discussions.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13And 'cream pie' not the right answer there.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16Jonathan, you remembered that this was to do with throwing money.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19He threw bundles of cash, and that's the correct answer.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22600, he says, of his own money.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25Simon Brodkin also known in the guise of Lee Nelson,

0:12:25 > 0:12:28his comedy character, and as Lee Nelson, in 2015,

0:12:28 > 0:12:32he joined Kanye West on stage at Glastonbury

0:12:32 > 0:12:34before being bundled off by security.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Well done, fantastic.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40We've had two or three questions now where you've not been sure but

0:12:40 > 0:12:42a combination of knowledge, a little bit of luck

0:12:42 > 0:12:45and some informed guesswork has got you there.

0:12:45 > 0:12:46This is where it has got you.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48Here we go, 1, 5, 7, 9.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50There's only two to find.

0:12:50 > 0:12:54So, your odds all the time are getting better and better.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56Which number do you want to try next?

0:12:56 > 0:12:59You choose. You got the question right, you choose.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01Erm, let's go...5.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05Is the number 5 there in our code? Let's have a look.

0:13:05 > 0:13:08Is it there in the first box?

0:13:09 > 0:13:13It's not. Is it there in our second box?

0:13:14 > 0:13:19Wow! Your real skill is avoiding numbers in the code!

0:13:19 > 0:13:20There are two left

0:13:20 > 0:13:23and you've only got three numbers left to choose from.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25Three correct answers, that's it, you've got the money.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28- Are you ready for your next three answers?- Bring it on.- We are.- Yep.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Bring it on.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39Well, of those three, we all know where Preston is probably.

0:13:39 > 0:13:43If it's the town. But Aussie Open, tennis?

0:13:43 > 0:13:46Probably. And Woodrow Wilson, you're pretty good at Presidents.

0:13:46 > 0:13:49Not too bad, but I think we should go with Australian Open because

0:13:49 > 0:13:52- we're all pretty good at sport, aren't we?- Yes, let's go for that.

0:13:52 > 0:13:56We'll have a look at the question behind Australian Open.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06- That's the French Open. - Are you sure?- Yeah, absolutely.

0:14:06 > 0:14:10- What about the US Open?- Oh! I beg your pardon. Erm, no.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12The... Let's get this right.

0:14:14 > 0:14:15They've built a roof now over...

0:14:15 > 0:14:17But the point is it's not the Australian?

0:14:17 > 0:14:19It's not the Aussie one, that's right.

0:14:19 > 0:14:20Yeah, we were getting side-tracked.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22- OK.- It's not the Aussie Open.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25We can open another before we have to make a decision.

0:14:25 > 0:14:26Woodrow Wilson?

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Woodrow Wilson, please, Matt.

0:14:36 > 0:14:37I'm struggling with that one.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40- Well, you're looking at the right sort of era, I guess.- Yeah.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42He was president in the '20s.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45She'd have been around there.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48- She anything to do with Lionel Barrymore?- Yeah,

0:14:48 > 0:14:50the whole Barrymore family I think.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55- I just don't know.- What do you think about possible answers to Preston?

0:14:55 > 0:14:57That could be anything, couldn't it?

0:14:57 > 0:14:59Yeah. So we have to go, we have to go with the bottom one?

0:14:59 > 0:15:01I think, because we've no idea what Preston is,

0:15:01 > 0:15:03we might as well lock in Woodrow Wilson.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06We're going to have to because we know it's not the Australian Open.

0:15:06 > 0:15:07- Yeah.- OK, let's do that.

0:15:10 > 0:15:14Let's see how it makes us feel when we open the question behind Preston.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24Preston!

0:15:24 > 0:15:26- Really?- The M6.- Yeah.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29- You're absolutely sure about that? - I think so, yeah.- We're done.

0:15:29 > 0:15:30If you'd opened that one first...

0:15:30 > 0:15:34- Yeah, exactly...- You'd have jumped for that without a doubt.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36- OK, well, you may be wrong.- Maybe.

0:15:36 > 0:15:40Let's keep it positive. You may be wrong. It may be Woodrow Wilson.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Let's find out now.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44Is Woodrow Wilson the correct answer?

0:15:48 > 0:15:50Aw!

0:15:51 > 0:15:54Oh, no. Let's find out what was the correct answer.

0:15:54 > 0:15:56I think we pretty much know.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01- Yep.- Just the order in which you opened them up, guys, I'm so sorry.

0:16:01 > 0:16:03- Lesley.- Oh, bad luck.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05I think if you'd opened the Preston question,

0:16:05 > 0:16:07you'd have been on very comfortable ground with that one,

0:16:07 > 0:16:10remembering Preston and the story of the bypass.

0:16:10 > 0:16:14Apparently the shoulders of the Preston bypass were hardened

0:16:14 > 0:16:16with gravel but not paved, and that's reflected in the term

0:16:16 > 0:16:20hard shoulder on British motorways to this day.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23Australian Open, Jonathan, when this came up you were pretty sure

0:16:23 > 0:16:26Australian Open was the wrong answer.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28The correct answer is the French Open.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31The Roland Garros court is planned to have

0:16:31 > 0:16:33a roof in the next few years.

0:16:33 > 0:16:37And Woodrow Wilson, not the correct answer. This one caught you out.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Very famous story about Ethel Barrymore

0:16:39 > 0:16:42having turned down a proposal from Winston Churchill.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44He said she didn't want to be married to a politician.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47You were discussing the Barrymore family.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Yes, Ethel was a sister of Lionel Barrymore,

0:16:49 > 0:16:53whom you mentioned, and the great aunt of Drew Barrymore.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Every day's a school day here.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58We've certainly learned something today, but you know what?

0:16:58 > 0:17:02Jonathan, Ben and Ricky, you played fantastically well.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Seven questions answered correctly.

0:17:04 > 0:17:05One number up in your code,

0:17:05 > 0:17:09you were tantalisingly close to breaking the code

0:17:09 > 0:17:13but on this occasion, I have to say, Jonathan, Ben and Ricky,

0:17:13 > 0:17:15you have failed to crack the code

0:17:15 > 0:17:18and so we have to say goodbye to you.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20Lovely to meet you, Jonathan. Cheers, Ben.

0:17:20 > 0:17:22- Cheers.- Bye-bye.- Cheers.

0:17:25 > 0:17:29Aw, they had it all. It all turned on just one question.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32However, their loss is our next team's gain

0:17:32 > 0:17:35because another £500 is added to the jackpot.

0:17:35 > 0:17:39So, let's meet our next team hoping to crack the code.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45Come on down, lovely to see you.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48- Helen, how are you?- Very well, thank you.- Good to see you.

0:17:48 > 0:17:52- And Neil.- Hi, Matt, nice to meet you.- You too, you too.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54So, you're both from Cheshire. How do you know each other?

0:17:54 > 0:17:56Through a love of quizzing.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Do you play on the same team together

0:17:58 > 0:18:00or do you play against each other?

0:18:00 > 0:18:02- We play on the same team. - How did you meet then?

0:18:02 > 0:18:04I wanted to join a quiz team, way back in 1986,

0:18:04 > 0:18:07and I'd heard there was an AGM of the Macclesfield quiz

0:18:07 > 0:18:10and so I went along to see if anybody would have me in their team,

0:18:10 > 0:18:11- and Neil had me.- We're all guys,

0:18:11 > 0:18:14so we thought it would be good to have a lady on the team.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16- You definitely need a spread of knowledge.- Correct.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18A spread of different backgrounds, that really helps.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21It certainly helps here on The Code as well.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23We really hope you do well today.

0:18:23 > 0:18:27The team before you, oh, my goodness, what a journey they had.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30They were doing brilliantly well answering the questions,

0:18:30 > 0:18:31avoiding numbers in the code,

0:18:31 > 0:18:33which can work in your favour in some ways,

0:18:33 > 0:18:36but unfortunately, the last couple of questions

0:18:36 > 0:18:39were just too tough for them, and they didn't break the code.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Not great news for them, terrific news for you

0:18:41 > 0:18:45because it means we add another £500 to the safe,

0:18:45 > 0:18:49making a total of £4,000.

0:18:51 > 0:18:55A very handy £2,000 each. It's nice and even, we like that.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58If you're ready, let's reset the code.

0:19:00 > 0:19:01Three blanks.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04You're trying to turn those into three numbers,

0:19:04 > 0:19:06the three unique numbers of your code.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08That means that you can win the money.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12- It's very straightforward, until you actually start to play.- Yeah!

0:19:12 > 0:19:16If you're ready, let's have a look at your first three answers.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23- Grumpy Cat. - We'll start at the very top,

0:19:23 > 0:19:25the question behind Jeremy Corbyn.

0:19:32 > 0:19:36- I don't think that's right. - Maybe not.- No...

0:19:36 > 0:19:39There was someone else before Jeremy Corbyn, I think, yes.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42We're not too sure about that, we don't think it's right.

0:19:42 > 0:19:43Let's see the other questions.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46Let's move on and have a look at the question behind The Turner Prize.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54- That's definitely wrong.- Yeah.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56- Eurovision.- Eurovision, isn't it?

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Eurovision Song Contest. Yeah.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00OK, the question behind Grumpy Cat.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10I think that's right.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12You're our literary expert so...

0:20:12 > 0:20:14That's not literary.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16I think I've seen it, I think I've seen about Grumpy Cat,

0:20:16 > 0:20:17I've got his face in my mind.

0:20:17 > 0:20:18I think that's right.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21- We know the middle one isn't right, for sure.- Yeah.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23- We don't think the top one is. - I don't think so, no.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26I've more of a feeling for the Grumpy Cat. Yes.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Shall we lock it in?

0:20:28 > 0:20:31- Yeah, Helen?- Yes, OK.- We'll go for that one, please, Matt. Thanks.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Will Grumpy Cat put a smile on their faces?

0:20:34 > 0:20:38Let's find out. Is it our correct answer?

0:20:42 > 0:20:46- Well done.- It is.- Well done, Helen. - You're out of the blocks. Lesley.

0:20:46 > 0:20:47Yes, well done, Helen,

0:20:47 > 0:20:51you thought you remembered a grumpy looking cat on the internet,

0:20:51 > 0:20:54features in Lolcats types of memes...

0:20:54 > 0:20:58- Yeah.- ..was once named the most influential cat and

0:20:58 > 0:21:01has also been awarded Meme of the Year in 2013

0:21:01 > 0:21:02by the Webby Awards.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04- Right. - Jeremy Corbyn not the right answer.

0:21:04 > 0:21:08Now, Helen, you remembered there was somebody between Gordon Brown

0:21:08 > 0:21:10and Jeremy Corbyn, but couldn't remember who that was.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13- It was Ed Miliband...- That's right. I knew there was a gap.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16..Jeremy Corbyn having succeeded Miliband in 2015.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18You remembered that there was someone in the middle there.

0:21:18 > 0:21:19And the Turner Prize,

0:21:19 > 0:21:22you knew straight away, both of you, that that was the wrong answers.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24Boom Bang-a-Bang from 1969,

0:21:24 > 0:21:26Making Your Mind Up from 1981,

0:21:26 > 0:21:30winners, exactly as you said, from the Eurovision Song Contest,

0:21:30 > 0:21:33Boom Bang-a-Bang having been a joint winner with three other songs.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35Well done, good start to the game.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38I didn't realise, there we go, it was a tie.

0:21:38 > 0:21:39I'd forgotten all about that.

0:21:39 > 0:21:40Anyway, Grumpy Cat,

0:21:40 > 0:21:44that's the only one that's important because it's the correct answer.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46It buys you the chance, Helen and Neil,

0:21:46 > 0:21:49to put a number into the code and see if it sticks.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51Which one would you like to try?

0:21:51 > 0:21:53- Number 5.- Here we go.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56Is the number 5 there in your code? Let's have a look.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58In the first box...

0:21:58 > 0:22:02No number 5. How about the second box?

0:22:02 > 0:22:06No number 5 there. How about the third and final box?

0:22:06 > 0:22:07No number 5.

0:22:09 > 0:22:11- Good stuff.- Deliberately. - There you go.

0:22:11 > 0:22:13I knew you did, Helen, I could tell.

0:22:13 > 0:22:17Let's have a look at your next three answers.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23We get to see all three, so we'll start at the very top -

0:22:23 > 0:22:25the question behind 'skiing'.

0:22:32 > 0:22:33Yeah, I think he was a skier.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35He was a slalom skier or a downhill skier.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38- OK.- I haven't got a clue.- Oh, right.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40Maybe these ones will help you, Helen.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42Let's have the question behind Chile.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52I think C was China, wasn't it?

0:22:52 > 0:22:56I think so, I don't think it was Chile. I think you're right, Neil.

0:22:56 > 0:22:57And the question behind 'hands'.

0:23:03 > 0:23:07Only when it's very rainy would I put them on my hands.

0:23:07 > 0:23:11- On your feet.- You- could- wear them on your hands.- You could.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15OK, we have to lock in one of these as the correct answer.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18- Yeah, I feel quite confident about skiing.- OK, go for it, Neil.- Yeah.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22There it is, we can't change it now.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25So, is 'skiing' our correct answer?

0:23:29 > 0:23:31- Well done. - Good job I got that right,

0:23:31 > 0:23:34- I'd have been in trouble if I hadn't.- Are you a skier?

0:23:34 > 0:23:36- I have skied, yes. - Right. With Alberto Tomba?

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Unfortunately not. Too quick for me.

0:23:39 > 0:23:40Lesley, talk us through these.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Yes, 'skiing' the correct answer.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45He competed at four Winter Olympics, winning five medals.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48Well remembered. Chile not the right answer. Neil,

0:23:48 > 0:23:50you gave the correct answer to this question -

0:23:50 > 0:23:53the BRIC countries, Brazil, Russia, India and China,

0:23:53 > 0:23:55considered to be the emerging economies

0:23:55 > 0:23:57at roughly the same stage of development.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00And 'hands' not the right answer. You got this straight away,

0:24:00 > 0:24:01you knew that was feet.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03It's a kind of overshoe.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06Yes, no-one really wears galoshes much any more, do they?

0:24:06 > 0:24:08I haven't seen in a while.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10There's nothing wet about you too at all.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13We have got number 5 discounted.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Nine other digits remain.

0:24:15 > 0:24:19- Nothing in your code so far. Who's going to choose next?- Neil is.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21- Neil.- I'll go for lucky 7, Matt.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23Lucky number 7.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Is it there in our code? Let's have a look.

0:24:25 > 0:24:26Is it there in the first box?

0:24:28 > 0:24:29No. Is it there in the second box?

0:24:31 > 0:24:33No. Is it there in the third and final box?

0:24:34 > 0:24:36Maybe not lucky 7.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38Well, no, you say that, but it makes life easy

0:24:38 > 0:24:41in the foothills of the quiz, which is where we still are.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44Two questions down, you're doing brilliantly.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47- Helen, Neil, are you ready for your next answers?- We are.- We are.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55- Quite a good story.- That would be a good story, wouldn't it?

0:24:55 > 0:24:58- I'd watch that film. - Traffic wardens.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01OK, the order in which we open them up doesn't make any difference,

0:25:01 > 0:25:02so we'll start at the top.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Well, she did a few Hitchcock films, didn't she?

0:25:13 > 0:25:15Was she in The Birds, Tippi Hedren?

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Tippi Hedren was in The Birds, that's right.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20She could be because there's an acting tradition.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23I can't remember Tippi Hedren's...daughter,

0:25:23 > 0:25:25I can't remember her name, I know she was in films too.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27- So it's possible. - It's a possibility, yes.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30Obviously I haven't read 50 Shades Of Grey, I don't know if you have.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33- I read up to chapter six before I threw it at the wall.- Really?

0:25:33 > 0:25:38- How exciting.- No, it wasn't, it was exasperating.- Oh, OK.

0:25:38 > 0:25:42Let's have a look now at the question behind Traffic Wardens.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52I've not heard of an M96.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55The 9s are not usually in the Gloucestershire area.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58They're 5s in the Gloucestershire area, aren't they?

0:25:58 > 0:26:00That's an interesting one, I'm not sure about that one.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03Two could bes.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05- Two could bes. - Two could bes we have so far.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07Let's have a look at the final one,

0:26:07 > 0:26:09the question behind Hermann Goering.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22Completely wrong, it wasn't Hermann Goering, it was the guy,

0:26:22 > 0:26:26- the architect guy, whose name escapes my...- The architect guy.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29- The architect guy definitely wasn't Hermann Goering.- Right.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31No, it wasn't, so that one is definitely wrong.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33So, it's between the other two.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36I'm erring towards the top one, cos I seem to remember

0:26:36 > 0:26:40something about Tippi Hedren being related to a current actress,

0:26:40 > 0:26:42but I can't remember which one.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45Yes, that's ringing a bell with me as well.

0:26:45 > 0:26:48And she was in Alfred Hitchcock films.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50I think her daughter is married to Antonio Banderas,

0:26:50 > 0:26:52I'm not sure about that though.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54It would be a wacky fact, if it was right, number two.

0:26:54 > 0:26:58- So shall we go for our gut instinct, number one?- Yeah, OK.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00We're going to lock in number one,

0:27:00 > 0:27:02Tippi Hedren, as our correct answer.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05It's a percentage call, I'd say.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08- Yeah.- Rather than being absolutely certain.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Is Tippi Hedren the correct answer?

0:27:14 > 0:27:18- Well done. Well done. - Melanie Griffith, that was it.

0:27:18 > 0:27:20That was Tippi Hedren's daughter.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23Isn't it funny how, as soon as it goes green, all the facts,

0:27:23 > 0:27:25- all the facts come down. - Amazing.- Lesley?

0:27:25 > 0:27:27Yes, well done.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29I wondered if you were going to go in the wrong direction for that one,

0:27:29 > 0:27:32but you settled on Tippi Hedren as the correct answer.

0:27:32 > 0:27:35You correctly remembered that Tippi Hedren had been in Hitchcock films.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39Tippi Hedren's daughter is Melanie Griffith, exactly as you said...

0:27:39 > 0:27:42- I remembered.- ..and Melanie Griffith is the mother of Dakota Johnson.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44from the 50 Shades Of Grey films.

0:27:44 > 0:27:47Let's look at Traffic Wardens now.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Each of the questions on the board must have a correct answer,

0:27:49 > 0:27:52so we know that the M96 motorway is in Gloucestershire.

0:27:52 > 0:27:55It's not an open motorway, it's a training motorway.

0:27:55 > 0:27:56Not for training traffic wardens,

0:27:56 > 0:27:59traffic wardens don't need to work on motorways,

0:27:59 > 0:28:01- the correct answer is firefighters. - Firefighters.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04They practise dealing with traffic accidents.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06I've just never seen a signpost to it, you see.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Nor is there one, cos it's a private stretch of motorway

0:28:08 > 0:28:10which is just used for firefighting training.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13- Very secret.- A secret motorway. - Yeah.

0:28:13 > 0:28:16And Hermann Goering, you knew the story of this.

0:28:16 > 0:28:19You remembered that this relates to an architect,

0:28:19 > 0:28:21and Goering - not an architect.

0:28:21 > 0:28:24Hermann Goering committed suicide the night before his execution.

0:28:24 > 0:28:26The correct answer to this is Albert Speer.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29- Albert Speer, which you had an inkling about.- I remembered.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32Well done, lots of information about the questions

0:28:32 > 0:28:35- leading you to the correct answer. - Yes, Helen and Neil,

0:28:35 > 0:28:38fantastic composite answer construction.

0:28:38 > 0:28:40That's what I liked about that.

0:28:40 > 0:28:44We can see a pattern emerging. Are we going to carry on with that?

0:28:44 > 0:28:48So far, it's been very effective avoiding the numbers in the code.

0:28:48 > 0:28:50Where are you going to go next?

0:28:50 > 0:28:54- We'll go for 3.- The number 3, I had a sneaky feeling you might.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56Is the number 3 there in the first box?

0:28:58 > 0:29:00No number 3. Is it there in the second box?

0:29:02 > 0:29:05No number 3. How about the third and final box?

0:29:07 > 0:29:09Still no number 3.

0:29:09 > 0:29:14- Three numbers out of the way, haven't tickled the code yet.- No.

0:29:14 > 0:29:16- Are you ready, Helen and Neil?- Yes.- Yes.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18Your next three answers, please.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26- What a terrific headline that would make.- It would, wouldn't it?- Yes.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29At this stage, it doesn't matter which order we open them in,

0:29:29 > 0:29:32- so we'll start at the top...- Yep. - ..the question behind Fiona Bruce.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40I don't know about that one, Matt.

0:29:41 > 0:29:43- I've got a feeling it's not her. - No, yeah.

0:29:45 > 0:29:48- Is she not the lady who does the antiques?- Yes.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50So, a bit of an inkling there.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53Let's move on and have a look at the question behind Knickerbocker.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04Isn't that the Knicks?

0:30:04 > 0:30:06They keep talking about it on television

0:30:06 > 0:30:09about how you can have tickets for the Knicks.

0:30:09 > 0:30:11It's one of Joey's big pulls, wasn't it, in Friends?

0:30:11 > 0:30:13And maybe Knicks is short for Knickerbocker.

0:30:13 > 0:30:15- It does sound a bit Dutch.- Yeah.

0:30:15 > 0:30:17- Yeah, could be. - Maybe we might be going Dutch.

0:30:17 > 0:30:19We might be going Dutch on this one.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21Let's look at the question behind Madness.

0:30:27 > 0:30:30- No idea. - I've heard of the group Madness.

0:30:30 > 0:30:33I've heard of Madness, but never in connection with the word Ambrose.

0:30:33 > 0:30:36- Another one, Matt, we're not 100% sure about.- OK.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39I think the middle one's what we're tending towards.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41Yes, we're tending towards the middle one, I think.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44- We think Knickerbocker. - Happy to lock that in?

0:30:44 > 0:30:47Yes, we're not 100%, but I think that's our best guess,

0:30:47 > 0:30:49- is it, Helen?- I think so, yes. - OK, we're locking in Knickerbocker

0:30:49 > 0:30:52as our best guess.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55We want it to be our correct answer,

0:30:55 > 0:30:58therefore all those hours of Helen watching Friends

0:30:58 > 0:31:01is going to be worth something at least.

0:31:01 > 0:31:04So, fingers crossed. Everything crossed.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08Is Knickerbocker our correct answer?

0:31:13 > 0:31:16- You and Joey.- Like that.- Like that.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19"How you doin'?" Lesley?

0:31:19 > 0:31:22Yes, key recollections and pieces of information leading you

0:31:22 > 0:31:24to the correct answer, Knickerbocker.

0:31:24 > 0:31:27You remembered people getting tickets to the Knicks

0:31:27 > 0:31:29in TV shows like Friends.

0:31:29 > 0:31:33They used to be called the New York Knickerbockers, now just the Knicks.

0:31:33 > 0:31:34Fiona Bruce, not the right answer.

0:31:34 > 0:31:37You associated Fiona Bruce with antiques programmes.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39She's on The Antiques Roadshow.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41The correct answer is Laura Kuenssberg.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44She took over from Nick Robinson in 2015.

0:31:44 > 0:31:46And Madness not correct.

0:31:46 > 0:31:48Never been Ambrose Madness.

0:31:48 > 0:31:50They did have some other names in their history,

0:31:50 > 0:31:53like the North London Invaders and Morris And The Minors,

0:31:53 > 0:31:55but they've never been called Ambrose anything.

0:31:55 > 0:31:57The correct answer... Matt, do you know this one?

0:31:57 > 0:31:59I knew you were going to ask me that.

0:31:59 > 0:32:01I knew about Madness, but I have no idea what the answer is.

0:32:01 > 0:32:04The correct answer is Ambrose Slade,

0:32:04 > 0:32:08and their first album, Beginnings, was released as Ambrose Slade.

0:32:08 > 0:32:10There you go. Well, I know now.

0:32:10 > 0:32:13- Thank you, Lesley.- We've learned something as well, haven't we?

0:32:13 > 0:32:15- Ambrose Slade! - Every day is a school day.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17So, Knickerbocker, the correct answer,

0:32:17 > 0:32:20gives you the chance to try another number in your code.

0:32:20 > 0:32:237, 5 and 3 - that diagonal is gone.

0:32:23 > 0:32:25- Shall we go for 4? - What are we thinking next?

0:32:25 > 0:32:27- It's your turn.- Zero?

0:32:27 > 0:32:31- We'll go for zero, please, Matt. - Zero. Is zero there in our code?

0:32:31 > 0:32:34Let's find out. Is it there in the first box?

0:32:36 > 0:32:38- Oh!- Well, it had to end eventually.

0:32:38 > 0:32:40If you keep answering correct questions,

0:32:40 > 0:32:42you're going to find numbers in your code.

0:32:42 > 0:32:440-blank-blank.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46We are moving on.

0:32:46 > 0:32:48Six digits left to choose from,

0:32:48 > 0:32:50and now things do become a little bit trickier.

0:32:50 > 0:32:55That wonderful composite question answering that you're doing

0:32:55 > 0:32:57gets trickier now because, as before,

0:32:57 > 0:32:59we get to see all three answers,

0:32:59 > 0:33:02but only two questions before you have to commit

0:33:02 > 0:33:04and identify which one is correct.

0:33:04 > 0:33:08- OK.- It's a lot harder. Let's have a look at your next three answers.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17Now, the order in which you choose to uncover these does become

0:33:17 > 0:33:20more important. Where would you like to start?

0:33:20 > 0:33:23With your literary knowledge, Watership Down might be a good one.

0:33:23 > 0:33:26- No, it's not one of my literaries.- Oh, right.

0:33:26 > 0:33:28- I like Michael Portillo.- OK.

0:33:28 > 0:33:30And woolly mammoth?

0:33:30 > 0:33:34Michael Portillo, I'm not bothered, you choose.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37- We'll try Michael Portillo.- OK.

0:33:37 > 0:33:39The question behind Michael Portillo, please.

0:33:50 > 0:33:52I'd be surprised if Michael Portillo was up here,

0:33:52 > 0:33:55cos that's local, isn't it? That's Knutsford, Tatton?

0:33:55 > 0:33:59- Yeah.- Has Michael Portillo been up here? Isn't he more a southern guy?

0:33:59 > 0:34:03I saw Michael Portillo interviewed not so long back about his

0:34:03 > 0:34:07part in the...the Carlisle to Settle railway thing

0:34:07 > 0:34:11and he said something about being beaten...

0:34:11 > 0:34:13in an election...

0:34:13 > 0:34:15Oh, right.

0:34:15 > 0:34:18..but I'm not sure it's Martin Bell.

0:34:19 > 0:34:23- Oh. Oh, right.- Yeah.- OK.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26We can open one of them before we have to make a decision and commit.

0:34:26 > 0:34:27Which do you want to do, Helen?

0:34:27 > 0:34:29You obviously want to do Watership Down.

0:34:29 > 0:34:30We'll try Watership Down.

0:34:30 > 0:34:32OK, the question behind Watership Down.

0:34:39 > 0:34:42- I told you.- You did tell me. Cor blimey!

0:34:42 > 0:34:45We should really know Martin Bell, shouldn't we,

0:34:45 > 0:34:48with him being fairly local, in Knutsford.

0:34:48 > 0:34:49Yes, I've met him, actually.

0:34:49 > 0:34:51He didn't talk about Michael Portillo.

0:34:53 > 0:34:56I don't know. I really don't know.

0:34:56 > 0:35:00- Watership Down, that's with all the rabbits, was it?- Yes.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03- Lord Frith.- I don't remember ever hearing that name

0:35:03 > 0:35:05in connection with Watership Down.

0:35:06 > 0:35:07Right.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10I've got more of an inkle for Michael Portillo,

0:35:10 > 0:35:12but then that could just be Michael Portillo, couldn't it?

0:35:12 > 0:35:14It could be, yes.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17Because Michael Portillo to me sounds like somebody who was

0:35:17 > 0:35:22more of a Conservative MP for down south.

0:35:22 > 0:35:25If Martin Bell stood against somebody,

0:35:25 > 0:35:28- it would have been whoever was the current one.- Right.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30So, you want to go for woolly mammoth, then?

0:35:30 > 0:35:34- I think we're edging that way, yeah.- OK.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37- Shall we?- Yeah.- Yeah, we're struggling a bit with this one.- OK.

0:35:37 > 0:35:41We'll go for woolly mammoth, even though we don't see the question.

0:35:41 > 0:35:45We're going to lock in 'woolly mammoth' as our correct answer.

0:35:45 > 0:35:46Everything crossed.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48There we go, it's locked in.

0:35:48 > 0:35:51That means we can have a look at the question behind it now,

0:35:51 > 0:35:52because we can't change it.

0:36:01 > 0:36:05No. Wrong. It's the tiger, that great big tiger.

0:36:05 > 0:36:07- Sabre-toothed tiger. - Sabre-toothed tiger.

0:36:07 > 0:36:08We think that's the tiger rather than...

0:36:08 > 0:36:11We think we might have selected the wrong one.

0:36:11 > 0:36:14- We do.- Well, let's not give up hope just yet

0:36:14 > 0:36:16because we can still find out.

0:36:16 > 0:36:19Is woolly mammoth our correct answer?

0:36:23 > 0:36:25No, you knew as soon as you'd seen it,

0:36:25 > 0:36:27- didn't you, Helen? - You were right.

0:36:27 > 0:36:30I'm so sorry. Let's find out the correct answer.

0:36:31 > 0:36:34It was Watership Down. Lesley, talk us through them.

0:36:34 > 0:36:37I think, if you'd opened woolly mammoth first,

0:36:37 > 0:36:38you would have been on safer ground.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40Watership Down, not the one you picked,

0:36:40 > 0:36:42but it was the correct answer. You remembered it was

0:36:42 > 0:36:44to do with rabbits.

0:36:44 > 0:36:48Lord Frith is the son whom the rabbits revere as a deity,

0:36:48 > 0:36:50- as the creator, in Watership Down. - Oh, OK.

0:36:50 > 0:36:52Let's look at the wrong answers.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54Michael Portillo, not the correct answer. You were discussing

0:36:54 > 0:36:58Martin Bell, you remembered he was an independent candidate.

0:36:58 > 0:37:02He was the man in the white suit who stood to defeat Neil Hamilton.

0:37:02 > 0:37:06- Yeah.- Though Michael Portillo did lose his seat the same night

0:37:06 > 0:37:09to Stephen Twigg. And the other answer on the board there,

0:37:09 > 0:37:11woolly mammoth. Now, woolly mammoth,

0:37:11 > 0:37:15if you'd opened this one first, you'd have known straight away,

0:37:15 > 0:37:18as Helen said, the correct answer is sabre-toothed tiger.

0:37:18 > 0:37:21- The upper canines are long teeth. - Yeah.

0:37:21 > 0:37:24- I'm really sorry, but well played.- Thank you.

0:37:24 > 0:37:27Yes, unfortunately, the code certainly got its teeth

0:37:27 > 0:37:28- into you today.- It did.

0:37:28 > 0:37:32But listen, this won't affect our quizzing team here, will it?

0:37:32 > 0:37:34- No.- It's not going to break you up? - Not at all.

0:37:34 > 0:37:37- I shouldn't think so.- Oh, that's lovely. It's lovely to see.

0:37:37 > 0:37:38Helen and Neil, I have to say,

0:37:38 > 0:37:41on this occasion you've failed to crack the code

0:37:41 > 0:37:43and so we have to say goodbye to you.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46- It's been lovely meeting you. - Thank you.

0:37:46 > 0:37:49- Bye-bye.- Cheers, Matt, thank you. - Bye-bye.- Bye, Lesley.- Bye.

0:37:50 > 0:37:54Yes, as soon as Helen and Neil failed to have the bigger picture,

0:37:54 > 0:37:57it stopped working for them, unfortunately.

0:37:57 > 0:38:00However, their loss is our next contestant's gain

0:38:00 > 0:38:04because another £500 is added to the jackpot.

0:38:04 > 0:38:07So, let's meet the next person hoping to crack the code.

0:38:10 > 0:38:12- Brendan, how are you? - Good to see you.

0:38:12 > 0:38:16- Good to see you too. Good to have you on the programme.- Thank you.

0:38:16 > 0:38:19- From Tunbridge Wells...- That's right.- ..and flying solo today.

0:38:19 > 0:38:23- Absolutely, yes.- Why is that? That's quite a brave thing to do.

0:38:23 > 0:38:26Well, when I saw the application,

0:38:26 > 0:38:27I had to get it in quite quickly

0:38:27 > 0:38:31and just didn't really find anybody in time to come along with.

0:38:31 > 0:38:34- You searched around for anyone good enough to join you!- Well, yeah.

0:38:34 > 0:38:36What do you do in Tunbridge Wells?

0:38:36 > 0:38:39I'm a radiographer, I work at my local hospital.

0:38:39 > 0:38:43I always thought that must be absolutely fascinating.

0:38:43 > 0:38:45- You get to see inside people... - Absolutely.

0:38:45 > 0:38:47..and then hopefully give them either good

0:38:47 > 0:38:49or not so good news afterwards.

0:38:49 > 0:38:51I'll be honest, we tend not to give them the news,

0:38:51 > 0:38:55we let other people do that. We just say, "I just take the pictures,"

0:38:55 > 0:38:56and let somebody else do that.

0:38:56 > 0:38:57Tell me about your strengths

0:38:57 > 0:38:59when it comes to general knowledge and quizzing.

0:38:59 > 0:39:02I was always into kind of classical mythology, that sort of thing,

0:39:02 > 0:39:05as a child, so that's probably something I'm quite strong at.

0:39:05 > 0:39:08It's one of the subjects a lot of our teams don't like.

0:39:08 > 0:39:11- They actively try and avoid them. - OK.- So, there you go.

0:39:11 > 0:39:13You've got that in your armoury anyway.

0:39:13 > 0:39:17The team before, Helen and Neil, did brilliantly, but unfortunately

0:39:17 > 0:39:21came unstuck when we got to the second stage of the quiz.

0:39:21 > 0:39:23Not such great news for them, but terrific news for you

0:39:23 > 0:39:27because it means we add another £500 to the pot...

0:39:29 > 0:39:32..and that makes a total of £4,500.

0:39:34 > 0:39:38- Very nice.- Brendan, if you are set, we will reset the code.

0:39:42 > 0:39:43- If you are ready...- I am.

0:39:43 > 0:39:46..let's have a look at your first three answers.

0:39:50 > 0:39:53Only one is correct, that's the one you're trying to find.

0:39:53 > 0:39:55Let's start at the top, the question behind Russia, please.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03I don't think that was Russia, I think that was France,

0:40:03 > 0:40:05because I think it was Napoleon's army.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08OK, let's have a look at the question behind 'mushroom'.

0:40:15 > 0:40:18- That sounds very plausible to me. - You like the sound of that one.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20- I do.- Let's have a look at the question behind Jack the Ripper,

0:40:20 > 0:40:22see if that changes things.

0:40:28 > 0:40:32There's been a TV series on recently about

0:40:32 > 0:40:3710 Rillington Place and I can't remember who the murderer is,

0:40:37 > 0:40:40but I know it's not Jack the Ripper cos they didn't know where he lived.

0:40:40 > 0:40:43As far as I'm aware, they didn't know who he was.

0:40:43 > 0:40:46- We've got to lock in one as the correct answer.- Lock in 'mushroom'.

0:40:46 > 0:40:49Mushroom, let's lock that in as our correct answer.

0:40:50 > 0:40:54So, if it's right, he gets to choose a number,

0:40:54 > 0:40:57see if it's there in the code. If it's wrong, I'm afraid, Brendan,

0:40:57 > 0:41:01back to Tunbridge Wells with our very best wishes, but nothing else.

0:41:01 > 0:41:04Is mushroom our correct answer?

0:41:07 > 0:41:08Yes, it is.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10Well done, Brendan. Good start.

0:41:10 > 0:41:13- Lesley...- Yes, these questions caused you no trouble at all.

0:41:13 > 0:41:17Oyster, portobello and shiitake, all types of mushroom.

0:41:17 > 0:41:21Russia, wrong answer and you knew the correct answer, too, was France.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23It's Napoleon's First French Empire.

0:41:23 > 0:41:26Wellington said that the battle was the nearest run thing

0:41:26 > 0:41:28you ever saw in your life,

0:41:28 > 0:41:31so it was by no means certain that Wellington would defeat Napoleon.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33Jack the Ripper, wrong answer.

0:41:33 > 0:41:35Good thinking on that one because Jack the Ripper,

0:41:35 > 0:41:38they don't know who he is, so how would they know where he lives?

0:41:38 > 0:41:40The correct answer - John Christie.

0:41:40 > 0:41:43John Christie murdered several people, including his wife,

0:41:43 > 0:41:45and was hanged in 1953.

0:41:46 > 0:41:47Thank you, Lesley.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50Yes, John Christie - you didn't know it, it didn't matter,

0:41:50 > 0:41:51you chose the right answer.

0:41:51 > 0:41:53That's what you have to keep doing, Brendan.

0:41:53 > 0:41:55Now, you've earned yourself the chance to choose a number

0:41:55 > 0:41:58and see if it's there in your code. Which one do you want to try?

0:41:58 > 0:42:01- Number 6, please. - Number 6. Is it there in our code?

0:42:01 > 0:42:05Let's have a look. Is it there in the first box?

0:42:06 > 0:42:09No number 6. Is it there in the second box?

0:42:10 > 0:42:12No number 6 there.

0:42:12 > 0:42:14How about in the third and final box?

0:42:16 > 0:42:19There we go. So, number 6, not there, but still not bad news

0:42:19 > 0:42:22because you're getting to work your...

0:42:22 > 0:42:23KLAXON SOUNDS

0:42:23 > 0:42:26Brendan, what can I say? Just as we've started,

0:42:26 > 0:42:29we have to finish, but you're doing absolutely brilliantly.

0:42:29 > 0:42:31First question out of the way.

0:42:31 > 0:42:36That sound means we have come to the end of the show, unfortunately.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38More from Brendan coming up, though, I'm sure.

0:42:38 > 0:42:41Lesley, thank you for spreading the joy of knowledge.

0:42:41 > 0:42:45You're welcome, and Brendan, we've had two solo male winners

0:42:45 > 0:42:48on this series so far. Let's see if tomorrow we can make it a hat-trick.

0:42:48 > 0:42:51- Good luck.- Fingers crossed. - Fingers crossed indeed.

0:42:51 > 0:42:53Please join us tomorrow to find out

0:42:53 > 0:42:57if Brendan can work his way to unlocking that safe

0:42:57 > 0:42:59and taking home £4,500.
