Episode 20 The Code

Hello, and welcome to The Code.

Locked in this safe is £4,500.

To open the safe and win the money,

contestants just need to crack a three-digit code.

But every time someone fails, more money goes into the safe

and the jackpot gets higher and higher.

So, last time, our solo player, Brendan from Tunbridge Wells,

had picked one number which wasn't in the code.

Let's welcome him back.

-Brendan, how are you? Good to see you back.

-Good to see you, too.

-Did you spend the night cramming?

-Uh, yes, a little bit.

-Good.

-Now, we know about you, you're a radiographer.

-I am indeed.

-We know you've got family.

-Yep.

-Tell us about them.

My wife, Katarina, and my two boys, Joshua and Alex, who are 14 and 12.

Nearly got it wrong there - I'd have been in trouble!

And with the money that hopefully you're going to win today,

what would you do?

I would be very, very sensible about it and give it to my wife.

Very, very sensible indeed.

Listen, it's terrific to have you here on the show.

Before we start, let me reintroduce our wizard of wisdom,

the fantastic Lesley Brewis.

Hello, welcome back. I'm looking forward to seeing whether

the radiographer is going to be able to see through the wrong answers.

I like what you've done there. Fantastic.

Let's remind ourselves where we are.

The number 6 you tried from the keypad, one correct answer

but it wasn't there in the code so we carry on playing the game

at this stage where you can see all the answers and all the questions.

-If you're ready?

-Yep.

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

We'll start at the very top with the question behind Indus.

I've got a feeling that's the Ganges.

I know the Indus is in that part of the world as well.

OK, we'll open up the question behind Rainbow, please.

I was never in the Guides.

You could probably join, these days.

You never know.

-No, that's not right. No.

-That's not correct?

Boys can't join the Guides but girls can join the Scouts.

I...think that sounds plausible. But I don't know for certain.

We're going to open up the question behind Condor, see if that helps.

That is a stork, not a condor.

As far as I'm aware.

And it's got a very, very big wingspan.

So I...am pretty sure, then, yeah.

Beavers is the youngest one for the Cubs, isn't it?

And then, right, go on, let's go with Rainbows for Girl Guides.

-Not entirely sure, though?

-No.

-But you want to lock in Rainbow?

-Yeah.

-OK, let's do that.

If it is correct it'll turn green.

If it's incorrect it'll turn red

and Brendan will be brown bread and outta here.

We don't want that just yet. It's early days.

Is Rainbow our correct answer?

Yes. Well done. Well worked out. Lesley.

Yes, well done.

The Rainbows are the equivalent of the Beavers in the Scout movement.

Girls who are in Rainbows can move on to join the Brownies and

then later the Guides.

Indus not the right answer. You gave us the correct answer here.

You knew that the Indus was in roughly that part of the world.

It flows through India, Pakistan and China, Tibet,

but not through Bangladesh.

And although it is holy, it's not the holiest river for Hindus.

The correct answer, as you said, is the Ganges.

And condor, again you gave us the correct answer.

The marabou is part of the stork family.

Sometimes called the "undertaker bird"

-because it looks a bit like an undertaker with a black cloak.

-Nice.

Thank you very much. Well, we're edging closer to our crock of gold.

6 has gone from the digital keypad. Nothing in your code so far.

Where do you want to go next?

Number 2, please.

Let's find out if 2 is in your code. Is it there in the first box?

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

No. How about the third and final box?

No number 2.

-But we're happy with that?

-Yeah, I think so.

Happy to be discounting the numbers and still seeing all the questions.

-Definitely.

-Brilliant.

Let's have a look at your third set of answers.

We can see all three questions, so we'll start at the top.

The question behind Bye, please.

I think a bye, they sort of wave... I don't know. That one,

I remember David Shepherd always used to do it like that.

He used to do it in stages. And I think that's a six.

You feel like that's an incorrect answer?

I think that one isn't right.

-Are you a cricket fan?

-Ish. I quite like watching a bit of cricket.

I'm rubbish at sport in terms of participation

-but I quite enjoy watching it.

-OK.

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

I'm pretty sure I've seen that on a road sign,

they put "adverse camber" and it's got the picture of the lorry

and the load on the lorry is not trueing up with the wheels on it.

So that sounds plausible.

The question behind Comet.

Oh, I don't know the order.

I know Comet is one of them.

So it's...

Something, something, something, Blixen.

Dasher, something, Prancer, Vixen. So there's...

-Is that something you've read to your boys?

-Not really, no.

Um...

Cupid's in there.

Donner's in there.

I think Cupid and Comet are together.

So I don't think Comet comes between Dasher and Prancer.

-So I'm going to go with Adverse.

-Adverse is going to be

-your correct answer. We're going to lock that in?

-Yes, please.

-OK.

We want Adverse to be our correct answer.

Well done. Good stuff. Another one through.

Not quite as confident with that one, I think.

You got it, though. Lesley.

Yes, not as confident but working that one out very well there.

Well done. Adverse Camber is my favourite road sign,

though I do have a soft spot for Rising Bollards as well.

Do you have a favourite road sign or is that just me?

I like Give Way. It's a very understanding thing.

You just like the general principle of...

I just think, give way, OK, I don't mind.

Bye is not the right answer.

You were trying to demonstrate umpiring signals.

A bye is just one arm in the air.

A bye being when the batsman doesn't hit the ball and the ball

doesn't hit the batsman.

The correct answer, as you knew, is six runs.

And Comet not the correct answer.

You were trying to work out the placement of the various reindeer.

It's "Now Dasher! Now Dancer!

"Now Prancer and Vixen! On, Comet! On, Cupid!

"On, Donner and Blitzen!"

-So the correct answer there is Dancer. Well done.

-Thank you.

Well, your bollards are not rising at the moment.

There's nothing in your way.

2 and 6 both gone.

Which number would you like to try next?

Eight remain. Nothing so far in your code.

As you've said, nothing in the code, so let's go for zero.

OK. Is it there in your code? In the first box?

No. Is it there in the second box?

It's not. Is it there in the third and final box?

OK, nothing in the code so far.

You're skilfully avoiding them. Seven numbers left.

Answer all those questions correctly,

it won't matter one way or the other.

But we're still playing the game at the easiest level.

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

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

I did used to watch the Pink Windmill when I was a child.

And it was Rod Hull and Emu that were on the Pink Windmill.

-Right.

-Not Orville and Keith Harris.

-OK, so that's what you think that show was?

-Yeah.

The Pink Windmill with Rod Hull and Emu.

Right. I'd forgotten that one.

Let's have a look at the question behind Save the Children.

I don't know this one. But...

-my gut feeling is, because it's Oxford, it's going to be Oxfam.

-OK.

But I don't know.

-So we feel like that could be an incorrect answer?

-Yeah.

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

I know Jaffa's a port

and I know it's in that part of the world.

-Yeah, I'm going to go for Jaffa.

-You're going to go for Jaffa.

With what level of confidence would you say at this stage?

Ooh...60%.

60%!

OK, we are going to lock in Jaffa as the correct answer.

Despite only being

about 60% confident about it.

Let's see - is Jaffa our correct answer?

Yes.

-Bit of relief there.

-Yeah.

-Definitely.

-We weren't quite sure about that. Lesley.

Yes, well worked out.

You weren't entirely sure but you fixed on Jaffa

as the correct answer because you had information about the other

two questions.

Tel Aviv, the financial and technological hub of Israel.

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

Orville not the correct answer.

You had a lot of detail about this top question. I suspect you watched

that programme quite a few times when you were older.

Can you remember the enemy of Orville?

Cuddles the Chimpanzee.

Cuddles the Monkey the main enemy of Orville the Duck.

And you get a Lesley Point so, Matt, you need to watch out.

Matt's trying to accrue Lesley Points.

Oh, sorry. I rained on your parade.

-It's really fine. You're our guest here. Just don't do it again.

-OK.

And the correct answer is, as you said, Emu.

As in Rod Hull and Emu.

Grotbags, of course, not a puppet but a genuine actual witch.

She had a crocodile as a sidekick, didn't she?

Yes. And Save the Children not the correct answer here.

You picked up on the Oxford reference in the question,

the correct answer being Oxfam -

Oxford Committee for Famine Relief.

Now, look, here we are.

Nothing in the code so far. 2, 6 and 0 all discounted.

Seven others remain. Which one next?

-You said seven others remain so let's go with 7.

-I've done it again!

The number 7, is it there? Let's have a look.

Is it in the first box?

No. Is it there in the second box?

No. Is it there in the third box?

Still no numbers in your code.

Four counted out without a sniff.

Right, here we go.

Your next three answers, please.

The order doesn't matter, we'll start at the top.

The question behind Henry I, please.

No...

Henry I is too early for that, I think.

I'm not 100% sure but I think it's Edward II. I think he was...

not one of the sort of strapping superhero-type medieval kings.

-OK. Shall we have a look at the question behind Leeds?

-OK.

Could be.

Um...

-My problem is, cos I'm a southerner...

-Yes.

..my view of the rest of the country is kind of truncated a bit,

so everything north of about...

Watford Gap Services is...

to get the cliche...is all the north, isn't it?

This is a massive prejudice, is what we're talking about.

-It's terrible, isn't it?

-You need to get out more.

-Yeah, I do.

-So not sure about that either.

-But it sounds plausible.

Let's have a look at the last one,

the question behind Phoebe's Mother.

Phoebe's birth mother was played by Teri Garr, I think.

-Really?

-And Kathleen Turner played Chandler's father.

OK. I'm going to have to take your word for that!

-All right?

-Yeah.

-OK, of the three answers we've got there...

I think I'm going to go with Leeds.

Leeds feels to you the most likely.

-Yeah.

-OK, we're going to lock that in as the correct answer.

You'll have to explain to me the

whole thing about Chandler's father.

-Yeah.

-Is Leeds our correct answer?

Yes.

-Another sigh of relief there.

-Yeah.

-Lesley.

Well done. Yes, it's 200 miles from each, it's on the A65.

So a little bit out of your normal sphere of reference but you

still picked it as the correct answer.

Henry I not right. You had the right thinking about this one.

Henry I was king from 1100-1135

-and the Battle of Bannockburn was in 1314.

-OK.

As you said, the correct answer is Edward II.

And Phoebe's mother, I don't need to say very much

because you've said everything already.

Phoebe's mother played, exactly as you said, by Teri Garr.

Kathleen Turner was Charles Bing, Helena Handbasket.

Kathleen Turner therefore being a woman playing a man playing a woman.

I'll give you a Lesley Point if you can tell me the character that

Kathleen Turner played in Romancing The Stone.

-Ooh!

-Cos I think if I ask you a Friends question you'll nail that.

-You get dibs after last time.

-No, no, I have no dibs.

I have nothing for you, I'm afraid.

I can't remember her surname. I know it was just Joan.

Because she kept introducing herself as just Joan and then the guy...

Just Joan, yes, she's Miss Joan Wilder.

Wilder! That was it.

Chandler's father the correct answer to the question here.

I'm losing Lesley Points at a rapid rate here.

You've found a strong contender.

Yeah, very much so. Brendan, very strong indeed.

Now, look - 2, 6, 7, 0 all gone from the keypad.

Nothing in your code so far. Which one next?

I've secretly been using numbers from my wife's date of birth.

-Really? Does she know about this?

-No.

-You going to carry on doing that?

-I am.

-Have you got any left?

-Number 1.

-The number 1.

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

No. Is it there in the second box?

Nothing. Is it in the third and final box?

We finally have a number in our code. The number 1 there.

Blank, blank, 1 is our code so far.

Five digits down. You're halfway through.

That means we move on to the next stage of the quiz,

which does get a little bit harder.

As before, three answers up there but you have to make

-a decision after seeing only two of the questions.

-OK.

Your next three answers, please.

OK, let's go with For Your Eyes Only.

The question behind For Your Eyes Only, please.

-Wow.

-Are you a Bond fan?

Obviously not as much as I thought!

Um...

I remember elements of that story but that name is not one that

-springs out at me.

-OK, we can open one more question.

Let's go with Next.

I associate Next with the year 1982.

Because I think a lot of their brand clothing

has "82" on it.

So that is chiming for you.

So that is the hook that I'm going to hang my hat on, I think.

-I'm going to lock that in as my answer, please.

-Wow.

It just feels right, does it?

It's the 82 thing that's doing it.

OK, let's see if, when we reveal the question behind Question Time,

that makes you feel any better. Let's have a look.

That's Newsnight.

-You'd know that straightaway?

-Yeah.

So that's making you feel even more confident about Next.

Is Next...

our correct answer?

Fantastic. Well done. Great stuff.

-Lesley.

-Well done.

Yes, your thinking about 1982 bang on there.

They use "82" and "1982" in lots of their clothing designs.

Hepworth was a menswear company in the olden days.

And they bought Kendalls, which sold women's clothes,

and they joined together and rebranded the stores eventually

as Next. Question Time not the right answer.

You gave the correct answer as soon as this one came up.

It is Newsnight.

Question time still hosted, as has been since 1994, by David Dimbleby.

Newsnight presenters are Kirsty Wark, Emily Maitlis,

and Evan Davis.

For Your Eyes Only, this question almost tripped you up.

You couldn't remember the correct answer to this one.

"Tiffany" may have been a clue.

-Tiffany Case in Diamonds...

-Are Forever.

-Exactly.

-Of course.

The Bond girl in For Your Eyes Only is Melina Havelock.

Thank you, Lesley.

OK, here we are, the halfway mark.

Five numbers down, one up in your code - blank, blank, 1.

Where do you want to go next?

OK, I've run out of my wife's birthday now,

-so let's head for our wedding anniversary.

-OK.

Number 8, please.

OK, number 8.

Is it in the first box?

No. Is it up there in the second box?

No number 8.

But look at that - only four numbers left now.

Four correct answers means you take home the jackpot regardless.

And we're still at the level where we can see two questions at a time.

If you're ready,

we'll have a look at your next three answers.

-Which one first?

-Let's go with Apology.

The question behind Apology, please.

Now, you did say Greek mythology was a strong point here.

I did classics A level and one of the areas that we did

was Socrates. So...

-We should be...

-We did a number of works by Plato.

And one of them was The Apology.

And that is precisely what that's about.

So when you saw Apology crop up there...

That did pop into my mind that that might be what it was.

OK, well, we can open one of the other questions.

Let's have a look at Stag.

I wouldn't have gone with stag for that one cos I associate kelpies

with water. Some sort of a water sprite, water creature.

Loch Ness Monster-type thing.

Right, we need to lock in one correct answer here.

-I'm going to go with Apology.

-I thought you might say that.

Let's lock in Apology

as our correct answer.

I couldn't tell, looking at your face, whether it was a happy look

or "I should know this but I don't" look.

Anyway, let's have a look. That's locked in, we can't change that.

The question behind Stephen Woolfe.

-I can't remember her name but I'm sure she was not a man.

-OK.

You're happy with Apology, still.

-Yeah.

-OK, good stuff.

This is where we want Apology to be our correct answer.

Yeah. As confident as you've been throughout the whole quiz, I think.

-Lesley.

-What a perfect question for you.

It's the defence of Socrates against charges of corrupting the young

and not believing in the gods,

which I'm sure you could have told us all about.

Stephen Woolfe not the correct answer to the top question.

You remembered it was a woman. That woman is Diane James.

She decided not to formalise her nomination as party leader.

Stag not correct.

You had the right idea about kelpies being water-based.

The correct answer is horse, kelpie being, in Scottish mythology,

a shape-shifting beast with the strength of 100 horses.

Now, talking about mythology, Matt, you said the middle question

was about mythology.

It's not, and I'm inclined to deduct a Lesley Point from you.

-No, you can't take Lesley Points away.

-I can only give...?

You can only give and I would defend myself on the basis that you

weren't there, so it could be a myth.

-People are pretty sure that Plato and Socrates actually existed.

-OK!

-I'm sure Brendan can tell you all about it.

-All right.

Now, look what we have. We are getting very close to this jackpot.

We're doing brilliantly well. There are only four numbers left.

-Which one's it going to be?

-Number 9, please.

Is the number 9 there in our code?

Only two digits remaining in the code.

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

No number 9.

We could be going all the way here.

There are only three digits left.

Only one player has taken it all the way before.

That was "long-haul" Paul.

Went to all ten digits and took away the jackpot.

-Can you hang in for that long?

-I'll do my best.

-I know you will.

OK, here we go, let's have a look at our next three answers.

Let's go with Sophie's Choice.

I know she won the Best Actress Oscar for Sophie's Choice.

But I don't know if that was the first time she did it.

OK. We can open one of the other questions.

OK, let's go with Coin Toss.

I don't think that's right. I think it would be alphabetical order.

So that leaves us with Sophie's Choice, Catch-22.

Let's go with Sophie's Choice.

-Want to lock that in as the correct answer?

-Yeah.

It's locked in now.

We can have a look at the question

behind Catch-22.

Wouldn't have a clue.

-No clue at all?

-Not at all.

Now you've got all three there,

do you feel like you've made the right choice?

It's quite apt,

-the answer, isn't it?

-Catch-22.

Or Sophie's Choice. Either of those. Or Coin Toss. Any of those answers.

-I see what they've done there.

-It's very appropriate.

So, is Sophie's Choice

the correct answer?

Phwoar!

-Wow.

-I think that's the edgiest one so far.

-Definitely.

-Lesley.

-Well done. You trusted your instincts on that one.

You remembered that she'd won an Oscar for a film before that.

-You might be thinking of...

-Kramer Vs Kramer.

Best Supporting Actress in the 1979 film.

Sophie's Choice, 1982, was her first Oscar for Best Actress.

She later won one in 2011. Can you remember what film that was?

Was the Julian/Julia one?

No, that was Iron Lady. Playing Margaret Thatcher in 2011.

That was her second Best Actress Oscar.

The coin toss not the right answer.

You gave us the correct answer here, that's alphabetical order.

Really interesting position in that they each had 46 points

with a goal difference of 25.

Each team had scored 44 goals and conceded 19 goals.

There was nothing to separate them but the alphabetic order.

Go Set A Watchman didn't ring any bells for you.

The correct answer is To Kill A Mockingbird.

-Harper Lee published in 1960.

-Thank you.

The correct answer gives you the chance to choose another

number from the keypad.

The numbers 3, 4, 5.

Two of them must be up there.

-If you miss it, you are in for the long haul.

-Yeah.

-Which one's it going to be?

-Number 3, please.

The number 3, is it there?

Is it there in the first box?

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

-OK. Well...

-I think I know which ones they are now.

Yeah, we all know which ones they are!

It's going to be either 5, 4, 1

or 4, 5, 1.

And if you're going to put your hands on the jackpot,

we're going to go all the way, all ten questions.

-Are you ready?

-I hope so.

-So do I.

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

Which one do you want to start with first?

We're still at the level where you can see two of the questions

-before you have to commit.

-Let's go with Kingmaker.

It's not Kingmaker.

-It's not Kingmaker?

-No, Kingmaker was the Earl of Warwick during

the Wars of the Roses.

Uh...

I used to live up near Evesham and we went to Warwick Castle

one time and it had a whole exhibition there.

Which one do you want to try next?

Let's try...

Stretching?

HE EXHALES

OK.

That actually seems plausible.

Um...

Pan...

is like...

Kind of wide...

Um...

Pandiculation...

I'm just trying to think what else do you do when you yawn?

You close your eyes? Doesn't sound like closing your eyes.

It sounds like kind of opening yourself out like that.

-Go on, let's lock that one in.

-Happy to lock that one in?

Well, I think "happy" is a stretch but that's what we're going to do.

We're going to lock this in as our correct answer.

This is crucial now.

We're coming so close

to this jackpot.

Let's have a look at the question behind Regulations

and see how that makes us feel.

Not a Scooby-Doo.

That wouldn't have helped you, you don't think,

if you'd opened that one first.

But I'm just having second thoughts about stretching now.

-Why are you having second thoughts? Because it's too late.

-I know. Uh...

It might just mean taking a really big breath in.

Let's not focus on what we don't know.

Let's focus on what we do know. If this turns green...

we are going to end up with the chance to put in one of two numbers

we know must be in the code...

if stretching is the correct answer.

Oh, boy!

-Well done.

-Thank you very much.

An absolute flier.

-Now, pandiculate.

-Yeah.

One of those.

Brilliant work. Lesley, wasn't that fantastic?

It was, yes, well done. You mimed yawning and worked out that

stretching was indeed the correct answer.

Coming from the Latin "pendere" to stretch.

Kingmaker not the right answer here. You were hoping for a question

about the Earl of Warwick. The Earl of Warwick Kingmaker

died before Lambert Simnel and Perkin Warbeck came to prominence.

The correct answer is Pretender.

They pretended to be members of the Royal Family

to challenge the newly established Tudor dynasty.

Regulations not the correct answer. Rules is the name of the

restaurant. It's in Covent Garden.

Not famed for having particularly strict rules.

Thank you, Lesley.

Well, what can I say? That was...painful.

The result was beautiful.

Now, I have to ask you a question that actually doesn't matter.

You have to choose either 4 or 5 to put into your code.

-Let's go with 4.

-Let's go with 4, why not?

The only question is, is it in the first box or the second box?

Let's have a look.

It's not there in the first box. It must be there in the second box.

Blank, 4, 1.

That's it now. We've reached the final question.

As before, you'll get three answers but you're going to see just

one question at a time before you have to commit and tell me if

it's right or wrong.

We know the last number in your code must be a 5.

Get it right, you're taking home £4,500. It's that simple.

Get it wrong...

-and after all this...

-Yeah.

..despite having faced every question you could here on The Code,

you'll be going home to Tunbridge Wells.

-Are you ready for your next three answers?

-As I'll ever be.

Absolutely critical which one you choose first now.

Let's try Anthony Hopkins.

OK. The question behind Anthony Hopkins, please.

I am...fairly confident that that is Sir Ben Kingsley.

-So you think that's an incorrect answer?

-I do indeed.

-We want to discard that.

-Yeah.

OK, let's do that.

That's gone, it's out of play.

That leaves us with...

-Let's try Yellowstone.

-OK, the question behind Yellowstone.

I think that's the right answer.

-You think that's the correct answer?

-Um...

I watched the other day a documentary that Kate Humble

-was on, about Yellowstone in the winter.

-OK.

They didn't specifically say that but I know that

Yellowstone National Park is mostly in Wyoming.

-And I'm pretty sure it was America's first national park.

-OK.

I want that to lock in as my answer, please.

You want to lock that in as the correct answer.

We've partially got

Kate Humble to thank

if it turns out to be right.

We will send her a letter.

Or possibly a text.

That means Stubbs must be incorrect.

Let's open it and have a look at that question.

Would you have any idea about that?

I think I can visualise the painting

and I can't remember who painted it.

OK. So that doesn't make us feel any more confident...

-No.

-..about Yellowstone.

The numbers don't count any more,

it's just down to getting this right.

To claim £4,500 for you, for Katarina, and your family,

is Yellowstone

our tenth

correct answer?

-Oh, wow.

-I am so chuffed.

Talk about doing it the hard way.

Seriously. The long way, the hard way, that's how you did it.

Come on, let's do it. The very straightforward process now.

As I said, only one number left. When you're ready, go for it.

We know what's going to happen.

Going to be a number 5.

There it goes, the safe opens.

Reach that handle, give it a pull and have a look.

-What can you see there?

-I can see some money.

-That's all yours. Grab it, it's all yours.

-Wow.

There we go. And let's go back up here.

Now, just so we're clear, the whole time locked in there, your code -

541.

You might have gone the long way round to get it but you did get it.

And we couldn't be more chuffed. Lesley, what do you think?

Very well done.

Yes, we've always said on The Code that all you have to do is

answer ten questions,

just the numbers help you to get through it more quickly. Well done.

OK, Lesley, just so we don't miss anything out, let's have a look at

those answers again.

Yes, Yellowstone the correct answer.

Thanks to Kate Humble for her documentary

from Wildest Winter To Blazing Summer for helping you

with the answer to that one.

Anthony Hopkins not the correct answer.

You remembered the correct answer to this one - Ben Kingsley.

Stubbs not the right answer. The right answer here is Seurat,

the pointillist responsible for the work

A Sunday Afternoon On The Island Of La Grande Jatte.

But that was all academic because you were clear on Yellowstone.

-Very, very well done. Congratulations.

-Thank you.

Yeah, indeed, thank you very much, Lesley.

Brendan, what can we say? We're chuffed to bits for you

for the way you played that. Tell me, you're going to go back,

you're going to call Katarina now, what are you going to say to her?

I might let it be a surprise.

-You're not going to say anything until you get home?

-No.

OK, well, look, there is your code, you get to keep that as well.

Treasure that.

And I have to say, it's been a pleasure having you on the show.

Genuinely. You have cracked the code and so you're allowed to take your

money and leave.

-Thank you very much for coming on.

-Thank you very much.

-Take care.

-Cheers. Thank you. Bye.

Yes, congratulations to Brendan, our third solo player this series

to walk away with the jackpot. In his case, £4,500.

So the jackpot's been won.

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

So let's see if our next team

can do what Brendan has done, and crack the code.

Come on down. Lovely to see you, Beth, how are you?

-Hello, nice to meet you.

-Yeah, you too.

-Adam.

-Hiya.

-Good to see you.

-And you, thank you.

So you're from Bradford in Yorkshire.

How do you guys know each other?

-We're husband and wife.

-Oh, OK. What do you do, Beth?

-I'm a homicide detective.

-Whoa. OK.

That's a very serious job indeed.

When you're watching TV, as the rest of us do,

many, many different versions of the job that you do -

which one would you point at and say they've got that spot on?

I can't remember the name of it. It's the ITV one.

-Scott & Bailey.

-That's it.

Are you going to bring that kind of forensic approach to the quiz today?

-We'll see.

-OK, the very best of luck. Adam, what do you do?

I work for a college in Huddersfield.

Part of the student recruitment team.

So I am supposedly a walking encyclopaedia of all the courses

we offer, what you need to get on them, what they contain, etc, etc.

OK, the best of luck. It's wonderful having you here on the show.

Thank you.

Now, you may have seen Brendan before you, who did fantastically.

He took away £4,500. The jackpot.

But that doesn't mean there's nothing left for you.

We've replenished the safe with £3,000.

We're starting again and that's for you if you can work your way

-through the questions. Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Let's reset the code.

Three blanks, and we want to turn those into the three unique numbers

of your code. Find those, the safe will open, the money is yours.

If you're ready, Beth and Adam, we're going to have a look at

your first three answers.

And at this stage, we can open all the questions behind them,

so we'll start at the top with the question behind Total.

It's not total, surely.

Mean, median and mode... is that average, isn't it?

-Yeah, kind of. Yes.

-The mean's the average.

The median's the middle one.

-And the mode's the...

-Common.

-..most occurring one.

Types of what statistic? Totals?

It could be. We'll see.

Let's open the question behind 12, see if that helps us.

-15.

-Yeah, 15.

OK.

Pretty confident so far. Let's have a look now at the question behind

The Daily Mirror.

-The Pride of Britain. My instinct would be The Sun.

-OK.

-But I don't know.

-No.

-And...

the mean, median and mode...

-Are all types of what statistic?

-I don't know.

Do we know any other types of statistic?

Is it the total?

-Types of what statistic...

-We can rule out the middle one.

-Yeah, definitely.

-But we just don't know the other two.

HE READS BOTTOM QUESTION

Go on, what do you think?

If you were here by yourself, what would you say?

If I was here by myself I'd go for The Daily Mirror.

Even though I've already said The Sun.

If I was here by myself, I think I'd probably go with total.

Only because I can't think of any other type of statistic.

But yet we know of lots of types of newspaper.

It could be The Sun, it could be The Star.

The Pride of Britain...

It could be The Times.

-I think it's down to you.

-Thanks(!)

All right, I'm going to stick with what I thought, then.

Which was...Total.

I'm saying Total is the right answer.

-Happy to lock in Total?

-Not desperately.

-No.

-As happy as we can be?

-Yes.

-Yeah.

Let's lock in Total

as our correct answer.

If it's incorrect it will go red.

And it will mean, Beth and Adam, you're on your way back to Bradford

at a very early stage. We don't want that.

Is Total our correct answer?

Oh!

I'm so sorry.

Let's find out which one was the correct answer.

Lesley.

Oh, Beth and Adam, I'm really sorry,

you ran into trouble with that question.

Total not the correct answer. I can't think of any other types of

total other than simply adding things up and seeing

what the result is.

The mean, median and mode are types of average.

The median is the midpoint in a set, the mode is most frequent number

that appears in a set and the mean is what we would typically call

an average,

which is where you add up all the numbers in a set and divide it by

the number of numbers in that set.

12, you knew that wasn't the right answer, you knew the correct answer

was 15. It couldn't be 12 because 12 is not a triangular number.

15 is a triangular number.

And therefore the correct answer.

On children's snooker boards they usually have ten balls -

another triangular number.

Daily Mirror is the correct answer.

Hosted by Carol Vorderman,

the Pride of Britain awards.

The Sun does have some awards but they're military awards.

Beth and Adam, I am so sorry at this early stage to say that

you're not the only ones for it to ever to happen to, either.

You have failed to crack the code and sadly that means you do

have to leave the game.

-Thank you so much for joining us.

-Thank you.

-Thank you, Beth.

-Thank you, Adam.

-Thank you.

-Cheers.

One question and they were gone. Not the first time, by any means.

As we always say, it's an easy game to play, a very hard game to win -

as Beth and Adam have just demonstrated.

But it's good news for our next contestants -

the jackpot goes up by another £500,

making a total of £3,500.

But that's all we have time for today.

Lesley, thank you for spreading the joy of knowledge amongst us.

You're very welcome.

And you'd think two heads would be better than one but Beth and Adam,

that didn't work out for them today.

Though it did work out well for Brendan.

Absolutely, yes, congratulations to Brendan, our fifth winner

of the series, walking off with £4,500.

Now, be sure to join is next week when a new team will discover

if they have what it takes to crack the code and win the cash.

Thanks for watching, and goodbye.
