Episode 2 The Code

Hello, and welcome to The Code.

Locked in this safe is £10,500 - our highest jackpot ever.

To open the safe and win the money,

contestants just need to crack a three-digit code.

Every time someone fails, though, more money goes into the safe

and the jackpot gets higher and higher.

Last time, our two police officers, Stewart and Chris,

got tantalisingly close to winning the cash,

but failed at the last hurdle.

Let's see if our next team can go one better and crack the code.

There you are. Welcome, welcome. Ben, good to see you.

-Hello.

-Colin, lovely to see you.

-Matt, nice to see you.

Welcome to the studio. Welcome to The Code.

Tell me a bit about yourselves.

Ben, what do you do with yourself? Where do you come from?

So, I live in Kent at the moment and I'm actually

a cameraman and video editor as well.

You're in the TV business?

Sort of, yeah. I make promotional videos

-in the yachting industry, actually.

-Right.

-And how do you know Colin?

-He's my grandfather.

-Ah.

-Has been my whole life.

Right. Well, yeah, that makes sense! Colin, tell me about yourself.

-What do you do?

-Well, I'm sort of supposed to be retired,

but we still run a small consultancy business.

We live in Woodchurch, in Kent.

Been married to Diana for... 153 years, I think it was.

That's impressive. Ben, how would you describe your grandad?

Well, I look up to him massively.

He's... I hope I'm in this good nick when I'm in my 80s, put it that way.

And, Colin, how would you describe Ben?

Oh, he's a lovely child.

You talk to youngsters and all you get is a sort of, "Urgh".

But if you talk to Ben and he'll bore you stiff for about two hours,

telling you all manner of things you don't really want to know about.

There you go. All of that useless knowledge, today, quite the opposite.

It's going to be very, very useful indeed.

-It will.

-Hope so.

So, this is the good news for you.

Last time, Stewart and Chris

unfortunately failed to break the code.

Bad news for them, as I say, but great news for you,

because it means that we get to add another £500 to the jackpot,

and that means it now stands at £10,500.

And that's our highest prize to date.

-Excellent.

-That sounds all right, doesn't it?

-Yes, that'll be enough.

-Quite happy with half of that!

To win that prize, to open the safe and win £10,500,

you need to enter a code of three unique numbers.

They're all different. Every time you pick a right answer,

you can then select a number and the computer will reveal

whether or not that's in your code.

But be warned, if you pick an incorrect answer, that's it.

You're out of the game

and I'm afraid we have to send you back home again.

It's an easy game to play, it's a very hard game to win.

-Are you ready?

-I think so. Yeah.

-Let's set the code.

Three blanks. We want to turn those into three numbers.

Before we start, though, let me introduce you to the person who will

be shedding light on the questions and answers throughout the show,

our resident sage, Leslie Brewis.

Hello. Welcome to the show.

You are our first grandfather and grandson pair on the programme.

I really hope that the quiz muse is with you today.

-Thank you.

-Thank you, Leslie.

Shall we see your first three answers?

-Please.

-OK, here they are.

Remember, only one of those is correct.

That's the one you're trying to find.

At this point, you can open all three answers

to reveal the questions,

so let's start at the top.

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

-I dunno. Sounds like a pirate name.

-Yes.

I mean, Blackbeard would be obvious one.

Yes, I don't know Bluebeard at all. Not heard of a Bluebeard, but...

-Shall we move on?

-Doesn't rule it out. Yeah.

We can look at all three, so let's look at the question behind Bonnet.

We don't want to jump to conclusions,

but I think that's probably the right one.

-Do you?

-Yeah.

-Well, they call the...

The bit at the front, isn't it? Over the top of the engine.

Yeah, they call the... the boot, the trunk.

-The trunk, yes.

-So, I think the...

-I think that might be right.

-The hood is the bonnet. Yeah.

Shall we have a look at the last one?

The question behind 25, please.

-Pass.

-OK, well, I think her first one was called 21.

-Oh, was it?

-I think it's the age she is when she releases them.

-Oh, right.

-But I don't think 25 was the first one.

OK. So, that's wrong, then, is it?

I'm pretty sure the hood is the bonnet.

-OK.

-Are you happy to go with that one?

-Yes.

We're going to go with bonnet as the right answer.

Taking the lead there,

Ben, very early on.

We're going to lock in bonnet.

If it is the correct answer,

it will go green, you get the chance to choose a number for your code.

If it's wrong, I'm afraid you're on your way home.

Is bonnet...

our correct answer?

That's it.

-Eh!

-Well done, Ben.

Well done, Colin.

-Brilliant.

-Ben giving a comprehensive rundown there

of the differences

between US English and British English

in the naming of parts of cars,

and that led you to the correct answer of bonnet.

Let's look at the wrong answers on screen.

Bluebeard - with this one, Ben,

you were quick to give the correct answer, which is Blackbeard.

You said you hadn't heard of Bluebeard.

Bluebeard is a murderous nobleman from French folklore.

Kept lots of dead wives in an underground chamber,

which were then discovered by his current wife,

who then escaped being killed in the same fashion.

Oh, God!

Blackbeard was a fearsome pirate and he used to keep burning fuses

under his hat, apparently, to scare his foes,

to make people submit, and hand over their ships.

The question about Adele, you dealt with this extremely efficiently.

You knew straightaway, Ben, that 25 wasn't the right answer.

It's 19.

You mentioned that the albums were released

at the age she was at the time. Not quite.

The titles of the album reflect the age when she created the songs,

-when she wrote the music.

-OK.

-Oh, right.

Every day a school day with Leslie.

-We've even learnt something!

-You're ready for the NEXT quiz you do.

But as far as this one is concerned, you're doing brilliantly.

You've got off the mark very quickly and it's time to pick a number now.

-OK.

-So, from the keypad, there you have ten numbers,

from zero through to nine. Which one do you want to pick first?

I've been having a recurring dream over the last couple of weeks,

and I would go for seven.

-OK.

-But don't ask me why.

-Let's see if...

-The wonderful thing is, Colin, you don't need a reason.

We can just put it in. The number seven.

Let's find out, is the number seven, there, in your code?

Is it there in the first box?

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

No number seven. Is it in the third and final box?

-Oh!

-Oh.

-It's not there.

-That was a nightmare, Jeeves.

-Yes, it was.

-But listen, your dream may have been correct,

because it's quite a good tactic to get rid of numbers...

-Yeah.

-..early on and carry on playing the game,

where you can see all of the questions at the same time.

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

Again, we can open them in any order, but let's start at the top.

The question behind Mannequin, please.

I know this one. This is an internet thing,

-so this is not your expertise.

-Not my scene at all.

-That one, I believe, was the Ice Bucket Challenge.

-Was it?

Where you just poured cold water all over your mates

-and raised money for...

-So, the mannequin is the wrong answer then?

-That's been done more recently...

-OK.

-..I think.

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

-Definitely not sewing.

-No?

-It was shorthand.

Ah! OK.

-Good. Very confident, there.

-So, that is definitely wrong.

-OK.

-Good teamwork here.

Let's have a look at the question behind Peter Jones.

Peter Jones is definitely in Chelsea.

-OK.

-But I don't know whether it's owned by John Lewis or not.

I would think that's true.

-Well...

-If I had to take an educated guess.

Well, I'm pretty sure that number one is incorrect.

-Yes.

-And you said you're dead set on number two being incorrect.

Definitely, number two is wrong.

OK. So, shall we go with number three as our correct one?

Yes, please.

We'd like to lock in Peter Jones as the correct answer.

-Yes.

-OK. There it is. It's locked in.

If it's the correct answer, it'll go green,

and you get to choose another number to try in the code.

Is Peter Jones the correct answer?

-It is.

-Hey, look at that.

-Good teamwork.

Very good game play, drawing on both of your experiences

to work out that the answer is Peter Jones.

When Peter Jones died in 1905, John Lewis, his competitor,

walked all the way across town

with money hastily gathered from the tills to buy the business.

-Wow.

-Mannequin...

Ben, you knew this straightaway.

No messing around. That was the Ice Bucket Challenge.

The Mannequin Challenge is where you stand really still.

And sewing, not the right answer here.

The correct answer, as Colin said, shorthand.

It's a form of shorthand that's phonetic,

so words are usually noted as they're spoken.

Well done, Colin and Ben.

It means that you get to choose another digit for the code.

Seven is gone. Where will we go next?

-Is it my turn to pick?

-Yes, absolutely.

I haven't had any recurring dreams. I'm going to pick number five.

Number five. Is it there in the code?

Let's have a look in the first box.

No. Is the number five in your second box?

No, it's not. Is it there in the third box?

No, it's not, but you're knocking those numbers off.

I promise you, it's a good thing.

-Are you ready for your next three answers?

-Definitely.

-Yes.

-Let's go.

-Well, you can see all three, so we'll start again at the top.

-OK.

The question behind crocodile, please.

I'm trying to think of any other, like, Greek-rooted words.

It doesn't sound Greek at all, that word, crocodile, does it?

No. It doesn't really.

Latin, possibly, but not Greek, I don't think.

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

-No.

-I've not seen that one, but I'm pretty sure that's the right answer.

-It is Rapunzel?

-I think so.

She didn't sleep for 100 years or something?

That's Sleeping Beauty, yeah.

-Oh.

-I think Rapunzel's the one with all the hair.

-OK.

-And I've got a picture in my mind of a film poster

with lots of hair on it for Tangled.

We'll leave that one pro tem and come back to it, maybe.

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

I wouldn't know.

No, I don't think I can help you there at all.

I mean, it would make sense if there are two names there and it was

discovered independently, it'd make sense that they would call it...

-Mr Swift and Mr Tuttle.

-Yeah.

-Yes.

Tangled, I'm sure, is the one with all the hair on the DVD cover.

-Yeah.

-Long plaits, and I'm sure that's Rapunzel.

That sounds like her, yes.

-That's the one that lowered her hair out of the window.

-Yes.

-Are we sure?

-Yes.

-I like the confidence!

-It's all fake.

Which question and answer would you like to lock in as correct?

Rapunzel, please.

OK. If that's wrong,

I'm afraid we have to say goodbye. Is Rapunzel our correct answer?

-Fantastic.

-Rapunzel is the right answer.

Well done. I thought you might swerve in the wrong direction there

for a moment, so I'm glad you hit upon the correct one there.

Rapunzel, you mentioned her long hair.

The hair in the film is 70 feet long

and it took years for them

to develop the animation for it to get it looking realistic.

-Longer than his!

-You have a little way to go!

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

Crocodile - you had a bit of a debate about this,

discussing whether crocodile was from Greek or Latin.

Crocodile does come from Greek.

Crocodilos. The correct answer, though, is Chameleon.

The "leon" bit meaning lion of the ground or ground lion.

Wouldn't have got that.

The Swift-Tuttle was a comet

discovered by two people at the same time, in 1862.

The one that we were looking for, for this answer, though,

-is the Hale-Bopp comet.

-Oh, gosh.

The Hale-Bopp comet was discovered

by Alan Hale and Thomas Bopp at the same time.

If you missed it in 1996 or 1997, your next opportunity is in 4385 AD.

There's no rush. There's no rush.

-Put it in your diary.

-Yeah, I won't held my breath on that one.

Thank you very much, Leslie.

And it means it gets you the chance to choose a third digit

to see if it's there in the code.

Five and seven have gone.

-Where do you want to go?

-Three, please, Matt.

-The number three.

Is that because it forms a nice line across the middle?

It does, yes. It's tic-tac-toe.

I see what you're doing. I like it very much, Colin.

Is it there in the first box?

-Ooh.

-It's not.

-Not in the first one.

-Is it in the second box?

-It's not.

-It'll be in the third one.

What about the third box?

-Oh.

-Blimey!

-It's not there.

This is all strategic. We're picking wrong ones on purpose.

You know it's just luck, don't you? You know it's just luck.

But it does work in your favour.

The good news is you've got three numbers that aren't there.

Seven only are remaining. Are you ready for your next three answers?

-Yes, please.

-Let's have a look.

Let's have a look at the question behind Aspects Of Love.

It's a Lloyd Webber musical.

So, you called that fairly early and said it was an Lloyd Webber musical.

I'm sure that's right. But we'll move on, shall we, to make sure?

-It could just be the year that trips us up there.

-Yes.

-It could have come out a different year.

-Yes.

OK. Let's have a look

at the question behind puzzle.

Extremely irritating.

I've never heard of that. It sounds quite fun.

It's such a waste of good bitter.

I mean, that would make sense if it was called a puzzle, but...

Let's have a look at the last question.

That definitely wasn't CS Lewis.

No. Are they the ones from...?

The Lake District, I think.

Right, CS Lewis was The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe...

Yes, it wasn't CS Lewis.

I've never heard of a type of jug...

-where you have to drink it without spilling it.

-No!

They're very unpopular in the pubs I go to, I must say!

It's definitely not CS Lewis

and you're pretty confident on Aspects Of Love,

and we've not heard of the middle one.

Puzzle. No. So, it's really

-the lesser of the three evils to go for the first one.

-Yeah.

I won't blame you if it's wrong, I promise.

Well, as I say, it is technically right, it's purely the date.

Yeah. I think we're ready.

OK. Which question and answer would you like to lock in as correct?

The first one, please.

We want that to be the correct answer.

Is Aspects Of Love the right answer?

Oh, no!

-I'm so sorry.

-No, not at all. Not at all.

That's a complete shock.

Let's find out which is the correct answer.

It was the puzzle jug.

The puzzle jug is a special kind of jug with holes.

You have to cover the right holes

so you can drink without spilling the liquid.

Oh! It does sound quite fun.

-Yes.

-It is fun. You should give it a go.

Yeah. Maybe we'll go drown our sorrows with a puzzle jug.

A puzzle jug.

The Aspects Of Love caught you out.

Aspects Of Love was a musical in 1989, not 2010.

It is the musical from which Love Changes Everything comes.

The correct answer here is Love Never Dies.

There's a story about Andrew Lloyd Webber

composing the music for Love Never Dies on a digital piano.

And his cat came along, ran across the board, deleted the entire score,

which he then needed to redo from memory.

-Wow.

-Which delayed the production somewhat.

Oh, sorry about that, I got that totally wrong.

-That's all right, I said I wouldn't hold it against you.

-No!

You were very confident about CS Lewis

not been responsible for writing about the Walker children.

Everything you said chimed there.

The correct answer is Arthur Ransome,

the author of the Swallows and Amazons books.

The children there playing in the Lake District, exactly as you said.

-OK.

-I'm really sorry it didn't work out for you today.

Not at all, not at all. We gave it a shot.

Well, you certainly did give it a shot, you gave it a very good go.

I was absolutely with you on that one, if it means anything.

I was with you as well, so I was very surprised to see it come up.

Colin, Ben, what can I say?

You're going to have to go back to Diane empty-handed.

Because, on this occasion, you failed to crack the code and, as a result,

we have to wish you all the best, but say goodbye.

-Thank you very much for having us.

-Thank you so much.

-Cheers.

-Lovely to meet you.

-Thanks, Matt.

-Thanks a lot.

Thank you very much. Bye.

Wow. I thought we had a good team there.

A combination of modern and not so modern knowledge

was going to take us through, however it didn't work out.

Their loss, though, is our next team's gain.

Because it means the jackpot goes even higher.

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

There you are. Come on in. Good to see you, Sam.

-Good to see you, Matt.

-Sonia.

-Hello.

-And Sally.

-Nice to meet you, Matt.

-Nice to see you.

All of you from Barnsley, is that right?

-Yeah, that's right.

-And how do you guys know each other?

So, I'm the boss of these two.

-We work together.

-Whereabouts do you guys work?

-For the local government.

-Right. And what do you do there?

Customer services for different departments.

These are tough jobs.

-They certainly are.

-So, you are the boss?

I am the boss, yeah.

Is that the way it's going to work here as well, do you think?

Well, we'll see. Naturally, I'm a bit...

-Yeah.

-I do as I'm told, Matt.

Very wise. You can't hide the fact that you have a party trick, Sam.

I've been told about the party trick.

Is this just for parties or does it happen in the office as well?

-This pops up.

-It can happen at any time.

-It's a very unique trick.

-Everywhere.

-What is it, Sam?

-I can make a noise like a snake with my tongue.

-You want to see it, don't you?

-I'm ready. I'm ready.

Yeah, that's... That is... That's remarkable.

Listen, we wish you the very best today.

Ben and Colin, as you saw, they failed to crack the code.

Bad news for them, but great news for you because it means another £500

is added to the pot, and that takes the total to £11,000.

-Wow.

-That could come in handy.

-Yes. It really good.

Let's see if we could make that go back to Barnsley with you.

Let's reset the code.

Three blanks. You want to turn those into three numbers.

The three unique numbers in your code.

OK. Team Snake Tongue...

If you're ready, let's have a look at your first three answers.

Remember, only one of those is correct. That's the one

that you're trying to find. Let's open the first question.

Which actor and dancer starred

in the films An American In Paris and Singin' In The Rain?

-I think that's right. I think that's right.

-I thought it was Gene Kelly.

Oh, no, it was Gene Kelly.

-That's right, Gene Kelly.

-Gene Kelly.

-I think that's wrong.

-I think it is wrong as well.

-Yeah. Yeah.

-OK.

-OK.

Let's move straight on to the question behind fork.

-I don't think it's a fork. Cout...

-Cut... Cut maybe. Knife.

No, I'm not sure. Do you know any French at all?

-No. Bonjour.

-Bonjour. Oui!

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

Not a clue. I don't know anything about flags and that kind of thing.

I mean, we know that...

We're saying that the first one is wrong, right?

-Yeah, definitely, the first one's wrong.

-The first one is wrong,

so it's basically a toss-up between the other two.

I'm thinking, Libya, did it change its flag

because it became an independent country?

It might.

I think it is the third one, but I'm not sure.

I think we're just going to have to take a...

-We're going to have to a take a guess.

-..an educated guess on it.

I think we're going to have to play...

-the third one.

-Yeah.

-Yeah. Which country changed its flag.

-Happy to lock that in?

-Yes, please, Matt.

If that is the correct answer,

you get to choose a number for your code.

If it's wrong, then I'm afraid you're back to Barnsley.

We don't want that.

Is Libya our correct answer?

ALL: Yes!

You're off the blocks. Well done.

Well done. Leslie.

Phew. Nicely done.

You had a correct instinct there

about changes in Libya leading to them changing their flag in 2011.

In fact, they changed back to a flag that had previously been in use.

The flag that they're using now was in use between 1951 and 1969.

Between 1977 and 2011, the flag of Libya was just green.

-Oh.

-Sam, you were very quick to identify...

Rescued this one, because it's not Fred Astaire, it's Gene Kelly.

You had a couple of debates about what couteau might be.

Sam, you thought it sounded a bit like cutting, it might be a knife.

And that's correct. It is a knife.

-A fork is a fourchette.

-Ah.

Good knowledge and a bit of intuition,

a bit of deduction as well,

means you get the chance to put your first number into the keypad and see

if it's in your code. Which one...?

-Who's going to choose?

-I'm going to choose number three.

Is the number three there in your code?

Is it in the first box?

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

There is no three. How about in the third and final box?

-Nah.

-That's all right.

-That's good.

-That's good.

-Yeah, yeah.

That's a good way to play the game if you can.

At this easier stage, get rid of as many numbers as you can.

-Yeah.

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

So, let's start at the very top. The question behind Wayfarer, please.

I think that could Aviators, but I'm not sure.

Aviator sunglasses, are they like the mirrored ones? Top Gun style.

Yeah. Which is military.

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

I can't imagine that's true.

No, I think it would have to be ants.

-40% is a really high number.

-40% of all insect species.

-So, it's different species.

-There are...

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

-I've seen this. I've seen this.

-West Side Story, yeah.

And I did it at school.

Yeah... Somewhere, somehow, some... It's that.

I think that could be right.

Well, if we're going to go... Let's go from top to bottom.

Sunglasses, you think is Aviator.

That was my first thought.

I think 40%... Beetles can be really small,

but some of them are quite big.

For 40%, I think you're looking at more like ants.

I think it's the third one that's right.

-Yeah?

-Somewhere.

-Somewhere.

-Are we all in agreement?

-Yes.

-You're going to lock in Somewhere as your correct answer?

-Yes.

-Yes.

OK, let's do that.

There's a lot of cash in the safe. Too much

for one person, possibly. Between three, just about right.

OK. Is Somewhere our correct answer?

-Oh, no!

-I'm so sorry.

-Oh, no.

-It's not right.

I thought we were on safe ground there.

Let's find out which was the correct answer.

It's got to be the first one, then.

-It's beetles.

-Really?

-It is beetles.

It is the species that we are looking at here,

not the individual insects,

but the species as a whole and there are lots and lots of beetle species.

The scientist JBS Haldane was once asked what a study of nature could

tell us about the Creator and he said that the Creator must have an

inordinate fondness for beetles

because there are simply so many of them.

Wayfarer, you got the right answer to this one as well as knowing

that was wrong. It was an Aviator.

Wayfarers were introduced in the 1950s.

Aviator glasses were designed initially to shield pilots' eyes

and replace goggles when they were flying.

Somewhere IS from West Side Story.

-Somehow.

-But it doesn't feature the word Somewhere 29 times.

The correct answer is Maria.

Which goes, "Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria."

Oh, of course, yeah.

I'm really sorry.

That's all right. We had a lovely time anyway.

That's really lovely to hear. I'm so sorry.

I thought you guys were going to go great guns with your

combined knowledge. Good leadership.

I thought it was going to happen for you.

But unfortunately not on this occasion. The beetles did for you.

-Bad, yeah.

-It was not a very long and winding road, I'm afraid.

It was a very, very short one, but very enjoyable.

Sam, Sonia, Sammy,

thank you so much for joining us, but I'm afraid, on this occasion,

you failed to crack the code.

We have to wish you all the best and say goodbye.

-Thank you very much, Matt.

-OK.

-Cheers, Sonia.

-Thank you.

-Thanks, Matt. Thank you.

There we go.

All of their combined strengths and knowledges,

and their experience in customer services,

did not help them on this occasion.

However, their loss is our next team's gain,

because the jackpot goes even higher.

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

-Come on in, gentlemen.

-Hello.

-How you doing? Chris.

-Pleased to meet you.

-And Chris.

-And Chris, yeah.

Chris One and Chris Two, is that all right? Will we go with that?

-Now, from Blackpool?

-Yes.

-And Stockport?

-That's right, yeah.

-So, how do you guys know each other, then?

We're brother-in-laws. We're married to sisters.

OK, and they both went for Chrises.

-Yes.

-OK, tell me about yourself, Chris One.

I work for a non-league football club,

working in the community,

and I work with young people

who may have been in trouble with the police or the court system

and try and work with their self esteem.

It's about showing them, and saying, "Look, you can still make changes."

-Yeah. Fantastic stuff. What great work.

-Thank you.

-How about yourself, Chris?

-I run a gym.

-Right.

Yeah, it's a family-owned gym. Been open for eight years now.

I mean, looking at me, obviously I'm in peak physical condition.

-Of course, yeah, yeah!

-Don't laugh!

But if I weren't, where would you start with somebody like me?

Erm...

We could do some work. We would obviously...

-First of all, I'd get your diet sorted.

-Yes.

-Get your diet right.

And then, after that,

we'd be hitting a few weights and doing a little bit of cardio, too.

But you're in pretty good nick, you know, Matt.

Yeah. It's just well packaged, I would say.

-Well-tailored suit.

-Yeah, that's what it is.

That's the key. As you know, Sam,

Sonia and Sammy failed to break the code,

so they've gone back to Barnsley with nothing. Which is bad news for them,

great news for you, because it means we add another £500 to the pot,

taking it to a total of £11,500.

Very handy. Let's reset the code.

Are you ready, Chris and Chris?

-We're ready.

-We're ready.

-Good stuff.

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

Now, remember, only one of those is correct

and that's the one you're trying to identify.

So, let's start at the very top and see the question behind Ed Balls.

I personally, going off what I know, would say that's incorrect.

-Yeah.

-Let's move on to the question behind red.

-Alex only drinks skimmed milk.

-Who's Alex?

-My wife.

-Oh, OK.

-I think we might have that one covered.

-Brilliant.

-OK.

Feeling confident. Let's have a look at the question behind economics.

I'm fairly confident that that's not right.

It's put the cat amongst the pigeons, that.

Well, skimmed milk - semi-skimmed's green, full fat is blue.

2010, that was definitely Lib Dem...

-Yeah.

-..and Conservative, wasn't it?

-So, it's got to be red.

-Alex drinks skimmed milk.

-That's it.

-So, we want to lock in, for Alex, red as the correct answer?

Yes. 100%. Red is the correct answer.

OK. Let's lock it in.

If that is the correct answer, then we want red to go green.

-Yes.

-It is.

Well done. Your knowledge of nutrition coming into play there,

Chris on my right.

Ed Balls, wrong answer on the top.

You quickly dismissed this as being incorrect.

The correct answer, not Ed Balls,

who was Shadow Chancellor from 2011-2015,

but Nick Clegg.

Mother Teresa didn't win the economics prize,

but the prize for peace.

It was because of her work against poverty,

the Nobel Committee said that poverty was a threat to peace

and her work constituted success in that field.

First question answered. You get to choose, therefore,

a number from the pad to try on the code.

See if it sticks.

Who's choosing, and what are you going to go for?

-Seven.

-Seven.

-Any reason?

-No.

Just lucky number seven. It gets picked a lot.

Let's see. Is the number seven in your code?

Is there in the first box?

No. Is it there in the second box of your code?

No number seven. How about in the third and final box?

-No number seven.

-OK.

That's good. It's not part of your code, but you've discounted it,

you can carry on. Good stuff.

We're happy with that. OK, Chris Squared,

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

Let's start at the top and have a look at

the question behind Shanghai.

I...think it sounds - I'm completely guessing -

-more Japanese...

-Yeah. Nikkei.

-..than Chinese.

Maybe this will help you.

Let's have a look at the question behind George VI.

1972. Well, it can't be 1972, because the Queen's been...

Yeah, too modern.

-Yeah.

-I think we'll discount that at the minute.

OK. Let's have a look at the question behind Zayn.

-Well, you like One Direction, so...

-Yeah.

Is this the first the world is learning

of your love of One Direction?

-Thanks, Chris(!)

-Who's your favourite member, Chris?

-Harry.

-Obviously.

It's the hair, isn't it?

I mean, Zayn did sing Pillowtalk,

so I'm going to say that is the correct answer.

-I would say.

-Happy to lock that in?

-Yeah, lock it in.

-OK, we're going to lock it in.

If that is the correct answer, Zayn will go green.

If it's wrong, you'll be going home, I'm afraid.

-Yes.

-Well done.

Yes, Zayn, the right answer from our resident One Direction

and Zayn expert. Do you know the name of the album that it came from?

-No idea.

-Mind Of Mine.

Mind Of Mine, also number one in the UK and the US.

Shanghai's not the right answer for the top question.

It's the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

The Nikkei index started in 1950.

George VI, not right for the monarchs of the UK.

You discussed this, you decided that, 1972,

Queen Elizabeth II, very much around,

alive and reigning at that point.

That's because the answer here is Edward VIII,

the king who was never crowned, abdicated in 1936.

Thank you, Leslie.

But you two are reigning at the moment.

You're the kings of this, because two correct questions and answers means

you get to choose your second number to see if it's there in the code.

Seven is down.

-Where are you going to go next?

-We're going to go with number three.

Number three. Do we see a pattern emerging here?

The number three. Is it there in the code?

Let's have a look at the first box.

No number three. The second box?

No number three. How about the third box?

-No number three.

-All right.

-Hard luck. But, again,

you're discounting numbers at this relatively easy stage...

-Yeah.

-..compared to what comes next. Chris and Chris, are you ready?

-We're ready.

-Are you centred?

-Let's do it.

One Direction. Anything else to be uncovered,

as we see your next three answers.

Have a look at the question behind Yorkshire Dales, please.

-That could be correct.

-I have no idea.

I just seem to think Oulton is in the Yorkshire Dales.

-All right.

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

-There was a movie with Valkyrie.

-Tom Cruise.

-Yeah, that's it.

But I thought he was like a vampire hunter or something.

No, no. That Tom Cruise film is something to do with World War II.

That was it. That was it.

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

I've heard of a huntsman spider.

Given that we're not sure on the top two,

I say that we go with spider as the correct answer.

That's the one that feels right?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-We want to lock in spider as your correct answer.

We want spider to be correct to give you a chance to put a third digit

into your code.

Is spider our correct answer?

-Good work.

-Yes!

-Get in!

Well worked out, Chris and Chris.

The Goliath birdeater is arguably the largest spider in the world.

The leg span can get up to 28 centimetres.

Yorkshire Dales, not the right answer here.

The correct answer is Broads.

Hickling and Barton are in Norfolk and Oulton is in Suffolk.

-So I was miles off.

-They are often called the Norfolk broads,

but many of them are in Suffolk.

Valkyrie, you dismissed this one correctly, but for the wrong reason.

Valkyrie is associated with Norse mythology,

because the Valkyrie carried the slain to Valhalla,

which is the correct answer, where the warriors could live with Odin.

The Valkyrie that you were talking about, the film with Tom Cruise,

-that's about the 1944 plot to assassinate Hitler.

-Well done.

It gives you the chance to enter a third digit into the code to

see if we can get one that sticks.

We'll go with zero.

Zero. That's broken the pattern up.

It doesn't matter. Is it there in the code?

Is it in the first box?

It is. You've got one.

The first digit in your code.

Zero, blank, blank.

Ah. Things now, though, become a little bit trickier.

Just as before, we're going to give you three answers but, this time,

you'll only be able to see the questions behind two

before you have to commit and make a decision.

So, you won't have the full picture. It's been easy street up until now.

Now we introduce a few cobbles.

-OK.

-Would you like to see your next three answers?

-Let's do it.

-Let's have a look.

I like what they've done there. It becomes more important,

at this stage, which order you decide to look at the questions.

-Right.

-Where would you like to go first?

Shall we go with Neighbours?

Do you know much about Neighbours?

Nah!

I know there's a TV show called Neighbours!

Shall we go with Neighbours?

Let's look at the question behind Neighbours.

What's the other one?

Home And Away. I think he was on that.

I saw him on Graham Norton once,

and I'm sure he talks about being on Home And Away.

I think it's Home And Away too.

-I've got a funny feeling.

-All right.

-OK.

You can have another look at one of the others.

Either love or thigh.

Let's go with thigh. Could be some kind of...

Yeah, but it could show me up.

Let's go with thigh.

That's right here, in your thigh.

100%, yeah.

It's lucky we chose that and not love.

You feel like you've found your question?

-I have, yeah.

-You've seen two questions behind the answers.

Now you've got to make a decision.

Which one of those three would you like to lock in

as your correct answer?

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

OK. Let's lock it in.

Thigh. That's locked in.

We can't change that.

It means we can have look at the question behind love,

which will either make you feel much better or much worse.

I wouldn't have thought it was that, but...

Yeah. We've got thigh.

I'm really glad we didn't choose that.

-Yes.

-Let's find out.

If thigh is the correct answer, it will turn green.

-Nice.

-Well done.

There was a lot at stake there, wasn't there?

Yeah, professional reputation.

Congratulations.

Thigh, yes, the femur the longest bone in the body.

And no surprise that you know that with your background in physiology.

Let's look at the other answers.

Love not correct.

The correct answer is "Me".

Neighbours not right for Chris Hemsworth,

he was in Home And Away.

Better known now for playing Thor in the Marvel films.

Fantastic stuff. Thank you, Leslie.

You get to choose another digit.

Zero, blank, blank is what you've got at the moment.

Where are you going to go next?

We're going to go with number two.

Is the number two in your code, there in the second box?

It's not there. How about in the third and final box?

There is no number two.

-Never mind.

-Four down, only six there.

If you answer ten questions in total correctly,

you will be taking home the prize.

That's all you've got to do.

-OK.

-Very straightforward.

Not. Are you ready for your next three answers?

Mother Hubbard, you would think, is a nursery rhyme.

-Wouldn't you?

-That's the only thing I could think of.

Jambo, I have literally no idea.

And Blowing could be anything.

-Yeah.

-Let's go with Mother Hubbard.

-Right, let's do it.

-Mother Hubbard it is.

Let's open the question behind Mother Hubbard.

It rang a bell.

I listened to Steve Wright when he was on Radio 1.

All his people with him did have nicknames.

So, potentially...

I can't... I literally have no idea.

It rings a bell, but...

I might just be hoping on that one.

-Yeah.

-OK, what's next?

Blowing?

Let's go blowing. He just blew.

-OK.

-That was a clue.

-I didn't pick that up.

-That was a sign.

That's what makes you brother-in-laws.

We're going to have to take a guess here, aren't we?

-Yeah.

-I'm stumped.

I'm just thinking of instruments that...

..are blowing instruments.

-Are you struggling?

-I'm struggling.

I am. Maybe go with... It's a total guess, but...

Mother Hubbard? For some reason, it did ring a bell when...

-Yeah.

-We opened it.

-Let's do it. Just do it.

-Lock it in.

OK.

Now that that's locked in,

we can have a look at the question behind Jambo.

That's Jumbo...

-Jumbo?

-Gumbo? Something like that.

I would say that is wrong.

Does that make you feel better, then?

Yeah, got a glimmer now.

OK. Let's keep that glimmer.

We want Mother Hubbard to be the correct answer.

-Yes.

-Yeah.

-We want that to take you through,

to get another digit to try into the code.

Oh! You were blind.

You were flying blind there.

-No idea.

-It was all hunches.

Let's find out the correct answer.

It was ocarina, was blowing.

Oh, Chris and Chris.

Yes, the ocarina, an ancient instrument that goes back many,

many thousands of years.

It has a hollow chamber and holes that you blow into,

to make various sounds.

There was a computer game, The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time.

Have you ever played that, Matt?

I have, and I also own an ocarina, Leslie. Sadly.

Apparently, when the game came out,

sales of ocarinas rocketed.

Did you buy your ocarina as a result?

Not as a result, I have one that you can wear round your neck,

it's like this. I'm so sad.

I couldn't help you out, guys. I'm sorry.

-That's all right.

-I'm so sorry.

-It's OK.

-The Jambo question not right.

It's a gumbo.

Gumbo, a cuisine associated with Mardi Gras feasting

as well as featuring in the lyrics of Jambalaya by The Carpenters.

Mother Hubbard not right, then.

Old Mother Hubbard is the one who goes to her cupboard

and finds that it's bare.

Joyce Frost, her identity was a closely guarded secret

until her death in November 2016. She was the Old Woman.

-There you go.

-The Old Woman.

I'm afraid the Old Woman didn't help you on this occasion.

-No.

-But you did fantastically well with the questions you had.

Just that next stage is that much more difficult.

-Yeah.

-Yeah. Tough.

-But you played terrifically well.

And I will be coming to you for some fitness advice...

-Cool, I'll see you then.

-..at some point.

Chris and Chris, unfortunately, on this occasion,

despite all your hard work, you failed to crack the code

and, therefore, we have to say goodbye to you.

-Thank you so much.

-Thank you very much. Thank you.

-Chris and Chris.

-Thank you.

-Thank you very much.

The combined power of two Chrises wasn't enough.

It means that the jackpot continues to grow -

up another £500, making a total of 12,000.

Wow. Sadly, that's all we have time for today.

Thank you, Leslie, for making us all feel a little more clever

-than we were before.

-It's been a pleasure.

And thank you. Be sure to join us next time,

when a new team will discover if they have what it takes

to crack The Code and win the cash.

Thanks for watching. Goodbye.
