Episode 9 The Code

Hello and welcome to The Code.

Locked in this safe is £4,000.

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 team of three - Julien, Kristian and Matt,

The Triangle Of Truth - were on their way when we ran out of time.

So, let's welcome them back.

Here they come, The Triangle Of Truth.

So good to see you. Julien.

-Lovely to see you. Kristian?

-Hello, Matt.

-And Matt.

-Hello again.

Yeah, good to see you. Just to remind ourselves,

three completely disparate places you're from.

London, from Stevenage and from Devon.

But you know each other through working in an inner-city college.

Two of you with animals, and Kristian, you're fitness.

-Sport and exercise science.

-Fantastic stuff.

And you've selected the name The Triangle Of Truth.

Remind us how that works. THEY LAUGH

-It's based on the ancient art of mind-merge.

-Yes?

But we only had two hours to perfect the mind-merging ancient art.

So, we're not fully tuned.

We're honing, you managed to practise between the programmes.

-A little bit.

-It's going to be brilliant this time.

It's going to work perfectly.

Before we go any further, let's reintroduce ourselves

to our super sage, Lesley Brewis.

Julien, Kristian, Matt, welcome back to the show.

Think carefully, work together as a team and you'll be fine. Good luck.

-Thank you.

-Thank you, Lesley. OK, let's remind ourselves where we are.

At the end of the last programme,

you'd answered one question correctly.

And using your unique method, had selected the number three,

which conspicuously failed to appear in your code.

So, it's still three blanks but continuing to play the game

at the easiest level where you can see

all the questions at the same time.

-Are you ready, gentlemen?

-Absolutely.

Let's see your next three answers.

Again, we get to see all three questions,

so we'll start at the top.

The question behind Domesday Book, please.

-National icon?

-Historians amongst us. I mean...

I'm thinking of something else.

Only one of these is correct.

Let's have a look at the next one, the Mary Celeste.

The Mary Celeste has been talked about recently

but so has the Titanic.

Was it 1985, they actually started talking about

knowing where it was

and started talking about doing missions down there?

Cos they've only located it, they hadn't done anything else with it.

-Shall we move onto the next question?

-Yeah, let's have a look.

The question behind Canasta, please.

Canasta. You know what? Something compels me with canasta.

I don't know why basket, because I don't speak Spanish.

-I don't know the game.

-Why would a card game be named after a basket?

The Elizabeth Tower houses which national icon?

-I don't know.

-Where...

Icon, Domesday Book?

Should we try The Triangle Of Truth for this?

-Just go one, two or three?

-Oh, man. You know what?

I always say that, just don't go on your instinct and stuff.

On this particular occasion, I don't know why canasta, but I'm loving it.

-Yes, shall we just say canasta?

-Go on, then.

-Yes.

-Happy?

-No.

THEY LAUGH

-As happy as we can be?

-Yeah, happy as we can be.

Let's lock in canasta.

OK, it's locked in now, we can't change that.

We want it to go green. Is canasta our correct answer?

-Yes!

-HE LAUGHS

Well done, is what I've got to say.

Absolutely brilliant hunch following. Lesley?

I've never seen anyone so excited about getting an answer right.

-Very, very well done.

-Oh, my God.

-You did that beautifully.

And Matt, somewhere in the back of your mind,

you knew that that was the correct answer.

Canasta, similar to rummy, played with two decks of cards.

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

Domesday Book, that's a very significant document.

It was completed in 1086 on the orders of William the Conqueror.

A great survey of all of his newly conquered land.

That's held at the National Archive in Kew.

The correct answer, the Elizabeth Tower, Big Ben,

otherwise known as "the Great Bell".

Before 2012, the Elizabeth Tower was known simply as "the Clock Tower".

It was renamed to commemorate the Queen's Jubilee.

Some people call it "St Stephen's Tower", but Clock Tower,

now Elizabeth Tower, the official names.

And the Mary Celeste was discovered adrift in 1872

with no crew on board, big mystery.

The correct answer here is the Titanic,

which you mentioned when you were discussing this.

The Titanic was found by the Argo,

a remotely-controlled deep sea vehicle.

It's too fragile to be lifted,

so it stayed exactly where it sank in 1912.

Thank you, Lesley, and thank you, gentlemen.

That was a process, what can I say? It was emotional at times.

But it gave you the right result and that's all that matters.

Now, are we going to have a similar process to try and find the number?

Last time we tried this, you employed a technique

-called The Triangle Of Truth, which was a mind-merge...

-Yeah.

Involving this symbol over your foreheads,

that gave you 3, which wasn't in The Code.

Which one do you want to go for next?

-One, two, three.

-ALL:

-8!

-Boom!

-Wow.

-That practise paid off, didn't it?

-THEY LAUGH

-With the merge.

Well, that certainly came up with a result,

which is a miracle in itself.

-Ha-ha!

-The number 8, is it there in your code?

I'm going to say middle...

Oh!

Yes! I told you.

The Triangle Of Truth yields its first results!

We have the first number in our code. 8-blank-blank.

However, it does mean things become a bit trickier now,

because as before, you get to see all three answers up there,

but the questions, only two at a time before you have to commit

and make a decision.

-All clear?

-Yeah.

-OK, if you're ready,

let's see your next three answers.

This time, it is important the order in which you select

to see these questions.

-OK, who's good at food?

-Which one first?

-Anyone good at food?

-Can I? Well, look, the asparagus question.

It's like it's either going to be asparagus

or it's not and that's quite specific.

What is the least likely one that we''ll probably get a clear answer?

-Sewage, I would say.

-Sewage?

-I think, maybe.

-Such a random answer, it might be obvious.

-Yeah.

Terrible could be difficult.

It's true, I think it's more of a wide range, isn't it?

Let's go with asparagus, because we can discount...

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

-Can't be that.

-I think the opposite.

-Asparagus, surely not?

-I think it wouldn't be fragrant at all.

-No, it's not.

-It doesn't smell.

-It smells like nothing.

I reckon we can probably discount that one.

-Maybe so.

-OK, we can open another one.

-What would you go for?

No, that's neither here nor there.

I am not in The Triangle Of Truth.

-Yeah, because we rejected him earlier.

-Terrible or sewage.

-Terrible's...

-What are you feeling?

Let's go, no mind-merge, just say what you want to do.

Terrible.

Terrible it is, because I'm going to vote that too.

-Let's get on with it.

-Let's see the question behind terrible.

-Oh, I don't think he was a nice man.

-Alfred of Wessex?

-Known as the Terrible?

-Terrible II, or something? The Terrible...

Of Russia, but are they...?

He would have just been Alfred the Terrible, if that was his title.

"Known as the what?"

Words that might follow "the", could be very negative or very positive.

-So, great, terrible...

-I bet the sewage one's right.

You know we haven't seen the question, though.

But I don't think the other two are, so...

-You don't think the terrible one is?

-No.

You could convince yourself of either, can't you?

We're going with sewage?

My gut's now telling me terrible is right.

-OK, I'm going to say terrible.

-I say terrible, I'll join you.

-Oh, man!

-Two to one.

-We're going to lock in terrible?

-Yeah.

-OK, lock it in.

That's locked in now, we can't change that.

We can open the question behind sewage.

-It's going to be gas or oil.

-Or something sensible.

Does that make you feel better about the answer you've chosen?

It makes me think that we have an actual chance.

OK, OK!

Makes you think you've got a chance.

The chance to use The Triangle Of Truth again

to try and find another number in your code.

Is terrible the correct answer?

Oh!

-Gutted.

-It's not the correct answer.

It must be either asparagus or sewage. Let's find out which one.

-It was.

-No way!

-It was Asparagus.

-Lesley?

-Flask of perfume?

Oh, Triangle Of Truth, I'm sorry that you came unstuck there.

Yes, asparagus was referred to in that way by Proust

in A La Recherche Du Temps Perdu.

Which I've never read,

so I don't know whether he was making a joke or not.

Though the asparagus effect its pretty well-known.

The terrible one, Kristian,

you said the correct answer when you were discussing this.

You were talking about other things that they could be called

and you said "great".

Catherine the Great, Alfred the Great.

The next one, not sewage.

You said the correct answer to this one again, it is oil.

The two pipelines carrying gas to Europe are the Yamal pipes.

Thank you, Lesley. Well, guys, what can I say?

You answered the questions well, you worked brilliantly as a team

but that the end of the day, I'm afraid it didn't work out.

The Triangle Of Truth has failed to crack the code.

And so, we have to say farewell. So lovely to meet you.

-Lovely to meet you.

-You take care. Thank you. Cheers, Kristian.

-Bye-bye.

-Cheers, Matt.

-Matt, bye-bye.

Well, at least they can get back and feed the animals.

That's the main thing.

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

because another £500 is added to the jackpot.

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

-And here they come. Lovely to see you, John.

-Yes, Matt.

-How are you?

-And Jonathan?

-Nice to meet you.

-Good to see you.

Tell me about you guys and how you know each other.

So, I'm John, I'm 40 years old from Cambridge,

and I work in environmental research.

And this is my friend Jonathan

-and we do a pub quiz together every week.

-Very good.

Jonathan, what are your specialisms?

So, I work in genetics, I'm a scientist.

See if any genetics questions come up,

-but I also have a degree in mathematics.

-Wow, OK.

So, between you, how many degrees are we talking about in total?

-I think it's five.

-Five.

-You have five degrees between you?

That's pretty impressive, two and a half each.

-We should be doing pretty well here.

-We hope so.

-Good stuff.

Well, listen, the team before you, they failed to crack the code,

which is not so great news for them, but it's good for you.

Because as a result, it means another £500 is added to the safe,

and that takes the total to £4,500.

-Wow.

-If you're ready, we will reset the code.

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

We'll start at the top. The question behind bat, please.

I don't know very much about religion generally,

but I have heard of Bat Mitzvah instead of Bar Mitzvah.

So, we'll look at the other answers,

but I've got a good feeling that that one's the one we're going for.

Yeah, I've got a good gut instinct for that as well.

I think that's right.

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

-I think that's going to be Trigger.

-Yeah.

-We don't think it's Boycie.

And the question behind Billie Jean King.

Well, I think '88 is too late for Billie Jean King.

I think she was more around in the '70s and I think it was

Steffi Graf who was around late '80s dominating women's tennis,

so I suspect the answer for the bottom one is Steffi Graf.

I'm very impressed by your tennis knowledge!

-I've no idea on that last one.

-I think...

-Bats.

-We're going to go...

-Bat Mitzvah, that's a thing, isn't it?

-That's definitely a thing.

-Let's go Bat Mitzvah.

-Yeah.

Let's lock in bat.

If it's incorrect, it'll turn red and I'm afraid that's it,

instant elimination.

It's the name of the game. Is bat our correct answer?

-Excellent.

-It is correct. Well done, gentlemen. Lesley?

Very decisive, I like it, well done. Yes, bat the correct answer there.

Usually boys are 13 at their Bar Mitzvah.

Girls are 12 or 13, depending on the denomination.

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

You realise that Boycie's not the correct answer.

You said Trigger is the correct one, that is correct.

-Boycie was played by, Matt, do you know?

-John... Oh, go on.

-Do you know, John and Jonathan?

-No, I don't.

-It's John Challis.

-Oh!

And Trigger, of course, was Roger Lloyd Pack.

Billie Jean King.

John, you knew that that was the wrong era

for Billie Jean King's success in tennis.

-The answer is Steffi Graf, exactly as you said.

-Well done, gentlemen.

Very brisk start.

Very complete with your answers as well?

And what it means is that you get to choose a number to try in the code

to see if it sticks. Is there a method here?

I was tempted to use a triangle-based method

and go for the triangle numbers. But I think that's a bit too weird.

-Let's just pick some random numbers.

-OK.

-Go with 1, please.

The number one. Is 1 in your code? Let's have a look.

No. Is there a number 1 in the second box?

It's not there. Is there a number 1 in the third and final box?

No number 1.

OK, but we've counted it out, so it's no bad thing to do.

OK, John and Jonathan, shall we see your next three answers?

We'll start at the top. The question behind Africa, please.

I think it's South America.

I think it is, yeah. Is it?

Yeah, if I just had the question with no answer,

-I'd be saying South America.

-Me too, I think.

-Not 100% certain.

-OK.

The question behind Scott Memorial, please.

I know the Scott Memorial. It's to Walter Scott.

-But I didn't think it was the other end of the Royal Mile.

-No.

-Is it in Edinburgh, though?

-Yes.

-Right.

So, we can't rule it out completely, but it's not the one I'd favour.

Let's have a look at the question behind whoopee cushion.

-Now, this I know.

-That's true. True? Good, OK.

That's nothing to do with the five degrees.

-This didn't come up in any of your studies so far.

-No.

OK, we need to lock in one of these as a correct answer.

-Which one's it going to be?

-Whoopee cushion.

-Whoopee cushion.

-OK.

If it turns red, then they're on their way back to Cambridge.

Is whoopee cushion our correct answer?

-It is, well done. Well done, gentlemen. Lesley?

-Yes, well done.

As soon as this one came up,

you were very happy that a whoopee cushion emits a Bronx cheer.

A real Bronx cheer, it's printed on the whoopee cushion.

And it almost certainly comes from Bronx,

as in the place in New York.

A Bronx cheer is a raspberry.

It was an expression of derision.

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

Africa, again, you came in with the correct answer,

this one, as well as knowing that that didn't ring true.

The correct answer is South America.

The Scott Memorial is the memorial to Sir Walter Scott,

the largest memorial in the world to an author.

The correct answer is the Palace of Holyroodhouse.

Really good stuff there.

So, gentlemen, you've answered a question correctly,

you get to choose a number to try in the code.

1's gone, what's it going to be next?

7, I like the number 7, let's go with 7.

The number 7 is a very good number indeed.

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

No. Is it there in the second box?

No number 7. How about the third and final box?

Ah. We have a number 7.

Blank-blank-7 makes up your code so far.

Two numbers down, one in the code,

but that does mean

things get a bit trickier.

Because as before, we see all three answers but this time,

you'll only see two questions before you have to commit

-and decide which one is correct. Understood?

-Yes.

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

At this stage, it's more important the order in which you select

-the questions you want to see.

-Not sure about any of these.

Am I right in saying that Wallis Simpson was to do with Edward VIII?

Yes, he married Edward VIII. SHE married Edward VIII.

So, yeah, that could

certainly be a royal question.

-So, we might be able to work that out.

-Let's go for Wallis Simpson.

We'll go for that. And then decide afterwards, what to do next.

The question behind Wallis Simpson, please.

So, my worry there is that he wasn't reigning when he...

Then what is the right answer to that question?

So, some reigning monarch must have married an American woman.

-Exactly.

-Do monarchs tend to get married when they're reigning?

I imagine that doesn't happen...

Well, I'm sure, if it's the British Royal family,

that's the only example, is Wallis Simpson.

So, it's either correct or it's referring to a...

I mean, reigning monarch is really quite general.

So, it doesn't have to be British, it could be some monarch

in Sweden or something like that.

-It's quite general.

-So, he...abdicated.

Maybe he abdicated, then married her afterwards.

Yeah, I think he abdicated in order that he could marry her.

OK, well, if we look at another question and hopefully

the other question is definitely true,

that will get us out of our fix.

OK, where do you want to go next?

Kilogram is quite general, so I'd prefer queens.

-It sounds a bit more precise. Let's try queens.

-Let's go.

The question behind queens, please.

Well, I think that's Manhattan.

I think I've been on it and the ferry I went on

definitely was from Manhattan and I think it went to Staten Island.

So, I think that question is false.

If you're happy with that, I think we can rule the bottom one out

and therefore, we're left with Wallis Simpson or kilogram.

-Well, we've had a lovely day, Matt.

-MATT LAUGHS

-We don't want it to end here!

-No.

We don't want it to end here, we want you to get the right answer.

-That's important.

-Kilogram?

-Kilogram.

-Kilogram.

Let's lock in kilogram. They're flying blind.

It's locked in, there's nothing we can change about that.

So, it means now we can have a look at the question behind it.

Hopefully, it's going to make you feel so much better.

-I think that's right.

-Yes, I think so.

-I think that's right.

-You're happy with that?

-Yes.

-Good! I'm happy, too.

Let's see if we continue to be happy with it.

Is kilogram our correct answer?

It is. Well done, well done. Good work. Painful, but we got there.

-Lesley?

-Yes, a very thorough investigation of the two questions

and answers that you could see.

I really thought you'd pick kilogram to open first,

with your scientific background,

I thought you might be on firmer ground with that than the others.

So, kilogram, yes, The Big K, also known as "Le Grand K",

because it's housed in Paris.

A platinum, iridium alloy which is used to define the kilogram.

Because it changes mass through contamination and use,

there are discussions now to redefine the kilogram.

Moving on now to the incorrect answers, Wallis Simpson,

this caused a lot of discussion between you.

You were examining the premise here.

You were completely correct in your suggestion that Wallis Simpson

was married to Edward VIII after he had abdicated the throne.

The correct answer, Grace Kelly in 1956

married Prince Rainier III of Monaco.

They'd met at the Cannes Film Festival.

And finally, the Queens question here, the Staten Island Ferry.

John, you said the correct answer to this, it's Manhattan.

There used to be a charge for it, but it's now free. Very well done.

Yeah, well done indeed. Thank you, Lesley.

John, Jonathan, that's absolutely teriffic. Really good stuff there.

That means you get the chance to try another digit in the code.

7 is up there already,

1's been discounted.

There are eight left. Which one do you want to go for next?

-Shall we go for 2, please?

-Yes.

-The number two?

The number 2, is it up there in our code? Let's have a look.

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

It's not there.

So, 1, 2 and 7 now gone.

The next three answers, please.

No connection between them but it sounds good.

-Which one's it going to be?

-Don't know, Wicked could be the musical.

Could be.

-No idea about Frog and Prince.

-Yeah, could be...

-Which one do you fancy?

-I think they're all a bit of a muchness.

-OK.

Oh, Prince could be about the musician, of course.

-Yeah, is that a good subject for you?

-No.

-OK!

On the ground that we do at least know one fact about Wicked,

-we could go for that.

-Let's go for Wicked.

See the question behind wicked, please.

It's...

-It's not, it's not Wicked. It's...Cats.

-Oh, OK.

-Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats.

-OK, good.

-OK.

-So, one more, which of these two do you want to see next?

I don't know anything about frogs, you see.

I know a bit about human biology but nothing about frogs.

Shall we go for Prince? I know...

-Maybe I'd recognise them if they came up. Go for Prince.

-Prince.

The question behind Prince, please.

I mean, lots of people died in 2016. Prince was one of them.

Yeah, Prince did die in 2016.

I mean, could it have been him or David Bowie? Carrie Fisher?

I've watched a little bit of New Girl.

And it's quite a manic sitcom.

So, I don't know if...

Can you picture someone else who died in 2016 who could have

-made a cameo appearance?

-I don't know.

It could, it might not have been.

So, are we going for frog, based on that?

On the grounds that I think Prince was a bit of recluse

-outside of music.

-Yeah.

I think we should...

Yeah, I think we should go for frog.

-Happy to lock in frog?

-Go for it.

OK, we're going to lock in frog as our correct answer.

That can't be changed now.

That's our selection,

it means we get to look at the question behind it.

I think that's newt.

-Jonathan, you're looking worried there.

-Well, I...

I don't, there's a great crested newt,

so if I'd seen that question,

I wouldn't have been thinking it's frog.

Fire-bellied, doesn't really fit frog, does it?

Matt, we've had a lovely day.

We've enjoyed our time.

Let's not go there yet, we don't know.

Hey, there could be great crested frogs out there.

Anyway, this is our moment to discover.

Is frog the correct answer?

-No.

-I'm so sorry, guys. It's such a tough round.

It really is, if you don't know it, you just don't know it.

Guys, let's find out which was the correct answer.

Yeah, there we go. Lesley?

Yes, when that selection came up,

I really thought you'd pick frog with your background in science.

Prince, the correct answer.

You were absolutely right to say that he was famed as a recluse.

The story is that he loved New Girl so much

that he contacted the makers of the show to ask to have a cameo

and he featured in an episode during which Zooey Deschanel attended

a party thrown by Prince.

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

The musical Wicked, nothing to do with the Jellicles.

Jonathan, when this came up,

you managed to pull out that the Jellicles feature in Cats,

and that's exactly right, the correct answer there.

Jellicles coming from "dear little cats".

Then the next one, frog, not the right answer.

When this one came up, John, you said newts.

You thought that was the right answer

and you were right there again.

And had you picked that as one of the options that you opened,

I think you would have been on much firmer ground.

Really bad luck, but excellent play throughout.

-Just came unstuck there with your frogs and newts.

-Thank you, Lesley.

Yes, I'm afraid your faces were not a great picture

when that one came up.

Listen, I mean, up to that point, you were all over it.

You played fantastically well, your knowledge is not in doubt at all.

And John and Jonathan, it's been lovely

having you here in the studio,

but I have to say on this occasion, you have failed to break the code

and so, we have to wish you farewell.

-Thank you so much.

-Thank you.

Thank you, John.

Yes, no shortage of knowledge there,

but unfortunately, not at the right time and in the right areas.

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

because another £500 is added to the jackpot.

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

Come on down, lovely to see you. How are you, June?

-Fine, thank you, how are you?

-Yeah, very well, thanks.

-And Tom, how are you?

-Pleased to meet you, Matt.

-Yeah, you too.

-So you're both from Dumfries.

-Yes.

-And tell me how you know each other?

-Erm, we're married. And we met when we worked together for the bank.

-OK.

At a Scottish bank together.

-Were you both behind glass, were you both tellers?

-Yeah, we were.

-In those days, yes.

-Right, OK.

-And now, are you still working in a bank?

-No, we're retired.

-How's retirement treating you? Are you enjoying it?

-Yeah, very good.

What do you do with yourself?

I was becoming a bit of a ukulele widower,

because she had been playing the ukulele for a couple of years.

-Right.

-So, I thought I should take it up and make her

not the only ukulele player in the family.

-Right, so you're a ukulele wizard then, June?

-More or less.

-Really?

-I've been playing about three years now.

-That's teriffic.

-Well, listen, we wish you both the very best of luck today.

-Thank you.

Now, the team before you sadly didn't crack the code.

Bad news for them but great news for you.

Because it means another £500 is added to the safe.

And that takes the jackpot to £5,000.

-Which could come in very handy.

-Yeah, absolutely.

-OK.

Now, let's reset the code.

If you are ready, June and Tom,

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

Let's start at the top.

-I don't know.

-220.

-Is that...?

-It's 100 Celsius.

-I knew it was 100 Celsius.

-Right, OK.

-Happy enough.

The question behind Arc de Triomphe, please.

Yep, that's it. That's right.

I would say that's correct.

-We've been up it.

-Yes, we have.

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

They're not bobbies, are they?

Yeoman of the Guard, isn't it? Bobbies are the police.

I don't think they're bobbies.

OK, we've got three questions there, three answers.

-Which one do you think is the right one?

-Oh, it's the correct one.

We reckon it's Arc de Triomphe, correct.

Let's lock in Arc de Triomphe as our correct answer.

If it's correct, June and Tom, it will turn green,

you will get the first chance to enter a number into the code.

So, is Arc de Triomphe our correct answer?

-Hey!

-It is, well done, very decisive. Lesley?

Yes, very decisive, very quickly worked through, those questions.

Well done, the Arc de Triomphe, the correct answer,

built to commemorate those who'd fought for France,

particularly in the Napoleonic Wars,

in which they weren't particularly triumphant.

The other answers then, 156,

you thought this might be 200 and something.

It's 212, the boiling point of pure water.

And bobbies, when this came up, you thought no way that's bobbies.

Bobbies refers to policemen.

The Yeoman Warders are popularly known as Beefeaters.

Good work, June and Tom.

Off the blocks very impressively and that means you get to choose

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

Well, a couple of weeks ago, I woke up and saidm "I had a dream tonight

"and it said what the code was going to be."

-Oh, let's see. This could be brilliant!

-Hmm...

-No-one's ever done it in three.

-Right, OK.

-The first number in your dream, please, Tom?

-Er, 1.

The number 1.

Is it there in your dream code?

No. Is it there in the second box?

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

-No.

-Back to the drawing board.

-Dream on, dream on!

-Back to...

However, discounting numbers early on,

really not a bad way to play the game.

If you're ready, June and Tom,

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

We'll start at the very top again.

The question behind The Teletubbies, please.

-You don't know?

-No.

-I've heard of the Soup...

I didn't think it was The Teletubbies.

-I don't think it's The Teletubbies but I'm not sure.

-Oh.

-Don't know.

-I don't think that's right.

-Maybe it'll come to you.

Shall we open the next one? The question behind Hexagon, please.

-Don't know.

-That's two triangles

turned upside down,

so what does that leave in the middle?

One... I don't know.

-Well, hex is six, isn't it?

-Don't know. It's five points, isn't it?

Oh, dear.

OK, shall we move on and let's have a look at the question behind Italy.

See if it'll help you.

-It's Ireland.

-Right.

I think we go with hexagon, because I'm not sure.

I'm not sure about the top one.

I think it's going to be hexagon.

-Aye.

-It is, because it's...

-You got a pen and paper?

-HE LAUGHS

I think the Soup Dragon was something else.

I don't think it was...

-Teletubbies, it was just the four of the Teletubbies.

-Aye.

Poteen is definitely the Republic of Ireland Rather than Italy.

So, we'll go with hexagon?

So, we reckon it's hexagon.

We think Hexagon is the correct answer. We want to lock that in.

If it is, it will go green.

June, Tom, is Hexagon our correct answer?

-Yes, well done! Worked through it.

-Well done.

Weren't sure about all of it but you got the right one. Lesley?

Yes, very well done. The star of David is made up of two triangles.

If you draw two triangles, then you do get the Star of David.

And drawing the two triangles leaves you with a hexagon in the middle.

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

And The Teletubbies, you couldn't remember any characters

in The Teletubbies apart from the Teletubbies themselves.

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

I was hoping you were going to ask me this. It's The Clangers.

-It IS The Clangers!

-Oh, of course it is.

Yes, the original series of The Clangers.

-Can you remember who narrated that?

-Yes, it was Oliver Postgate.

It was Oliver Postgate, and Michael Palin,

the narrator of the recent Clangers revival.

And Italy definitely not the correct answer here.

Tom, you were straight in there with the right answer, which is Ireland.

Very well done, nicely dealt with.

Well, Tom and June, no clangers there from you at all.

Buying you the chance to put another digit into the code

to see if it sticks.

1's already gone, the dream is gone, Tom.

-Would you like to pick one, June?

-Number 3, please.

Let's see if the number 3 is there in the code.

No, is the number 3 there in the second box?

It's not, is it there in the third and final box?

-Yeah!

-Well done.

-Good.

-June's dream is alive.

-Ha-ha!

The number three is there in your box,

blank-blank-3 makes up your code.

But it does mean that things become a little bit trickier.

Before, you could see

all three questions.

This time, you'll only be

able to see two questions

behind your answers before you have to commit and make a decision.

If you're ready, June and Tom, here are your next three answers.

Now, the order in which you choose these

does become quite important.

-OK.

-Becomes a dilemma, in fact.

Rhodes, could be Gary, could be the island. You know any?

-You know any places on Rhodes?

-No.

Any films that were made in Rhodes?

-Dilemma.

-No, I don't know.

Dilemma could be anything.

-I have no idea.

-What do you fancy?

-Don't know. Two, maybe.

-OK.

-Two.

-We'll go two.

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

I seem to remember

when I was younger,

it seemed to be one person

almost forever.

Then again, when I was younger, ten years was almost forever, I suppose.

OK, you get the chance to open another one

before making a decision.

You choose this time.

I'll go Rhodes, I think.

The question behind Rhodes, please.

No, he wasn't born in Rhodes.

No, that was Corfu.

Corfu, wasn't born in Rhodes.

One in there, the first one maybe did three.

Will we go with dilemma?

I don't know, I'm just thinking maybe they're limited to two terms.

Ban Ki-Moon, stuff like that.

Boutros Boutros-Ghali.

Ban Ki-Moon and all that.

You want to go with that?

-I don't know.

-Decisions, decisions.

-Decisions...

I think it's maybe likely to be correct.

Maybe, when you get the whole blooming world to choose from,

do you want to let folks be there for 15 years?

I think that as well, it's a long time.

So, we'll say that one's true.

So, you're going to lock in two?

-As a correct answer.

-Yes.

There it is, we can't change that now,

so it means we can have a look at the question behind dilemma.

Might have been Dilemma, I have no idea.

-No ukuleles feature in this track.

-Why not?

Maybe they do! I don't know.

How does that make you feel, June?

-I can...

-Any clue with that at all?

-I can hear the song but I don't know...

-I've done it now.

-Well...

I feel I might have gone for that.

Well, we get to find out now.

-OK.

-Is two our correct answer?

-THEY GASP

-Ah!

I promise you I am as surprised as you were.

-Lesley?

-And that was a dilemma!

Very well done, well worked out.

The most five-year terms, yes, it is two.

That was true for Kurt Waldheim, Javier Perez de Cuellar, Kofi Annan,

Ban Ki-Moon and U Thant.

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

When the Rhodes one came up,

Tom, you said straight away it's definitely not Rhodes, it's Corfu.

Prince Philip having been born in a villa called Mon Repos.

And Dilemma was a hit for Nelly and Kelly Rowland in 2002.

The correct answer, Beyonce, featuring Jay-Z, is Crazy In Love.

He calls himself Jay-Zee, but we're English here, so Jay-Zed.

Jay-Zed! Thank you very much. No dilemmas at all for you guys.

You are steam-rollering this.

Now what you need is a bit of luck with numbers.

We have 3 in the code already, that's up there.

1's has been dismissed,

eight others to choose from.

Who's going to go next?

-Zero.

-A zero.

Is zero there in the code?

Is it there in the first box?

It's not, is zero there in the second box?

-Oh!

-Oh, now!

Only twice has anybody cracked the code in just four questions.

But that's what you could do.

Blank-0-3 up there in the code.

Only one more to find.

Seven digits to choose from.

OK? But we are at the stage

where things do become very tricky, because now,

we see all three answers but the questions only come up

one at a time before you have to make a decision.

You're just one step away now from the jackpot, £5,000. Here we go.

The order in which you choose these becomes very important.

OK, it's got to be football.

We'll go for football first.

Got to be football.

We'll try football first, Matt.

-Football, big passion for you, Tom?

-Bit keen, yes.

-Who's your team?

-Hamilton Academical.

-Ah...

-Scotland.

Let's hope this is academical.

Oh, it'd be great!

Yes, wouldn't it be if that came up now?

Let's see the question behind football results.

No, that's not right. That's not right.

When we were growing up, it was James Alexander Gordon.

Right, OK.

-Arsenal 2-5 Derby County.

-SHE LAUGHS

Oh, he's Scottish, James Alexander Gordon.

OK, that's good.

You're going to say that's false?

-Yes.

-OK. In that case, we'll get rid of that now.

That's now out of the game, can't come back to it.

Where do we go next? Aeroplane or thunder & lightning?

Thunder & lightning,

it could be scientific or it could be the Queen song, couldn't it?

-So random.

-What will we go?

-Thunder & lightning.

-Thunder & lightning?

The question behind thunder & lightning, please.

-It's The Tempest, isn't it?

-I don't know.

-I think it's just wind.

-Wind or something? I don't know.

-I don't really know.

-You've said it,

when you say it, it's usually good.

I don't know anything about The Tempest at all.

-Why did you say wind?

-I don't know.

Well, a Tempest wind.

Let's go for wind then.

-Let's see that...

-Oh, boy. I'd say that was false as well.

So, if we're saying that is false, then by default,

we're saying aeroplane is the correct answer.

Do you want to lock in aeroplane as the correct answer?

-I think we'll have to, yes.

-OK.

It's locked in, we can't change it. We're flying blind.

We've selected it without knowing what the question is.

-Let's have a look, let's hope it makes us feel good.

-Oh...

British Aeroplane...

-I've no idea.

-It could be.

Could be, though, couldn't it?

-I've no idea.

-Jump out of aeroplanes.

-Could be.

-I've a funny feeling it's wrong but I've no idea.

You feel that that's wrong. That's not giving you a good feeling.

-Let's find out, that's the only way to do it.

-Yeah, OK.

Is aeroplane the correct answer?

-Ah, what a shame.

-Aeroplane, it's not the correct answer.

I'm so sorry. Let's find out which was the correct answer.

It was thunder & lightning, it was. It was the Shakespeare.

-Lesley?

-What bad luck.

Yes, I think you were discussing Tempest,

just as a wind rather than a big storm with thunder and lightning.

The stage direction says it's a tempestuous noise

of thunder and lightning heard.

Enter a master and a boatswain.

The aeroplane question, the one you selected as the correct answer,

B-A-S-E, BASE jumping,

that stands for building, antenna, span and Earth.

It's daring jumps with a parachute or wing suit,

antenna then the correct answer.

And the football results question.

Tom, when this came up, you dismissed it straightaway

because you remembered that James Alexander Gordon

was a Scottish reader of the football results,

so it couldn't be that.

Charlotte Green is the current reader of those.

The correct answer, the Speaking Clock.

Thank you, Lesley.

Well, I'm afraid the clock has come to its end for you guys.

But listen, there was one number left in the code.

-Which one would you have selected, do you think?

-It's your turn.

-If you'd got that question right?

-I'd have gone 9.

-9.

Let's find out. I mean, this may be a sickener. But let's find out!

Is the number nine up there? What's the last number in the code?

Oh, it was 8! So, you had a little bit more work to do anyway.

That's OK.

June and Tom, it was fantastic to have you on the show, it really was.

-And keep playing the ukulele, whatever you do.

-Thank you.

But on this occasion, I have to say you have failed to break the code

-and so, we have to send you home and say goodbye.

-Thank you.

-Lovely to see you, bye-bye.

-Thank you, Lesley.

-Thank you. Bye, Lesley.

Yes, there go June and Tom, back to Dumfries and their ukuleles.

But as we always say, it's an easy game to play

and a very hard game to win, as they've just demonstrated.

Good news for our next contestants, though, as the jackpot goes up

by another £500,

making a total of £5,500.

That's all we have time for today, though.

Lesley, thank you ever so much for all your fantastic knowledge.

You're welcome.

I really wanted them to get further along in the game than they did.

Just unfortunate that they settled on the answer

that they couldn't see.

Lucky with the numbers, not so lucky with the questions.

Be sure to join us next time, though,

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

to crack the code and win the cash.

Thank you so much for watching. Goodbye.
