0:00:19 > 0:00:21Hello and welcome to The Edge,
0:00:21 > 0:00:24the show where you need brains and balls.
0:00:24 > 0:00:28Today, our players will compete to roll down these big-money cash lanes.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30The nearer they roll to the edge, the more money they earn.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33Stop their ball on the edge, and they will get thousands.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36But go over, and they get nothing.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39Let's meet the players who today are going to push themselves to the edge.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43I am Mike, from Wrexham.
0:00:43 > 0:00:44I am a regional sales manager
0:00:44 > 0:00:47and I am used to a high-pressure environment.
0:00:47 > 0:00:48I am Kitty, from Middlesex.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51And I am a student studying media and music industries.
0:00:51 > 0:00:52I am Katie, from Birmingham.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55And I am a tour director, taking students round Europe.
0:00:55 > 0:00:56I am Carl, from West London.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59And I am an office coordinator for a property marketing agency.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02APPLAUSE Welcome to you all
0:01:02 > 0:01:04and very best of luck.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07In a moment, you will each take to the lanes to roll for big money.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10The ball you need is trapped in your podium.
0:01:10 > 0:01:11I am going to ask some questions.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Buzz in with the correct answer
0:01:13 > 0:01:15and you will bring your ball up towards you.
0:01:15 > 0:01:16Once you have freed your ball,
0:01:16 > 0:01:18you will roll down the shortest lane available.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21The shorter the lane...
0:01:21 > 0:01:24the bigger the edge and the better the odds of banking big money.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27So do well on these questions to give yourself the best
0:01:27 > 0:01:31advantage on the lanes. Three correct answers will release your ball.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34If everyone is ready, fingers on buzzers.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37In which country would you find Mount Kilimanjaro?
0:01:37 > 0:01:39- Katie.- Kenya.- Incorrect.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Tanzania.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43You are frozen out of the next question.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47The title of the CS Lewis book is The Lion, The Witch And The what?
0:01:47 > 0:01:49- Mike.- Wardrobe.- Correct.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Katie, you're back in the game.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55Before being returned to Scotland in 1996, which historic stone...
0:01:55 > 0:01:58- Katie.- The Stone of Scone. - ..was contained
0:01:58 > 0:02:00in the Coronation Chair at Westminster Abbey?
0:02:00 > 0:02:01Is correct.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Agatha Christie wrote a 1933 novel about a fictional
0:02:07 > 0:02:09murder on which famous train?
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- Katie.- The Orient Express.- Correct.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Katie, you need one more correct answer to release your ball
0:02:14 > 0:02:16and roll on the green lane.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18First broadcast in the '60s,
0:02:18 > 0:02:21the puppet series Thunderbirds was created...
0:02:21 > 0:02:22Kitty.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25- I don't know.- ..was created by Gerry and Sylvia who?
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Anderson was the word I was looking for, Kitty.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30You are frozen out of the next question.
0:02:30 > 0:02:35What comes before Valley in the name of the US region... Mike.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38- Death.- ..home to numerous computer companies?
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Silicon was the answer I was looking for, Mike.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43LAUGHTER
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Sometimes it pays to interrupt, sometimes not.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48This time, Mike, you are frozen out of the next question.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Kitty, you are back in the game.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53In tennis, which Grand Slam is held at Roland Garros?
0:02:53 > 0:02:56- Katie.- The French Open.- Correct. You have released your ball.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58You are rolling first on the green lane.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01APPLAUSE
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- Green dress, green lane. - It was arranged.- Right.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10- So you are not going to change every round, I hope?- I do hope not.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12LAUGHTER Well, hit the edge on this round
0:03:12 > 0:03:14and it is worth...
0:03:14 > 0:03:16£1,500!
0:03:16 > 0:03:18APPLAUSE
0:03:18 > 0:03:21You each have one roll to earn as much as you can.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Whoever earns the least is leaving us.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Where are you going to aim on the green lane?
0:03:25 > 0:03:26I'm not going to aim too high.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29- I'm going to slightly play the percentage game.- Oh.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Because if you think about it, it is harder on those lanes.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35So I am going to aim for sort of 850, 900.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38They could pull out a big roll, of course, on those lanes as well.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41They could. They are pretty hardy contestants.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44I am not sort of resting on my laurels.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46OK, Katie, if you are ready, let's roll.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- VOICEOVER:- Good afternoon. First today, Katie from Birmingham,
0:03:50 > 0:03:53looking to take advantage of the green lane.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58And you score...£800!
0:03:58 > 0:04:00APPLAUSE
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Almost what you were aiming for.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05You happy with that?
0:04:05 > 0:04:08I think a little more would've been better, but I think it is...
0:04:08 > 0:04:09It might be safe.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Fingers crossed.- Good start. So three lanes still up for grabs.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17We have reset the podiums, fingers on buzzers.
0:04:17 > 0:04:22If I left the house at 8.20am and arrived at work at 9.35am,
0:04:22 > 0:04:24how many minutes did I spend...
0:04:24 > 0:04:27- Mike.- 75.- ..travelling to work? Is correct.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32What machine that utilises high-frequency sound waves is
0:04:32 > 0:04:35commonly used to examine pregnant women? Mike.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39- Sorry. Gone blank.- Ultrasound.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42You are out of time and you are frozen out of the next question.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Katie, you had your hand on the buzzer, not quick enough.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46- Did you know the answer?- Yeah.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Angelina Jolie plays Maleficent
0:04:48 > 0:04:51in a retelling of which classic animated film?
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- Carl.- Snow White. - Incorrect, Sleeping Beauty.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56I'm afraid you are frozen out of the next question.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Mike, you are back in the game.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02Veneto and Piedmont are wine producing regions in which country?
0:05:02 > 0:05:05- Kitty.- France.- Incorrect, it's Italy.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07You are frozen out of the next question.
0:05:07 > 0:05:08Carl, you're back in the game.
0:05:08 > 0:05:12The Electronic Entertainment Expo, also known as E3,

0:05:15 > 0:05:16- Mike.- Gaming.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19We will accept that. Video games. Correct.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23One more correct answer, Mike, and you'll release your ball.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27What small hairs cause the eyelid to shut on reflex when hit by a...
0:05:27 > 0:05:28Carl.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32- Eyelashes.- ..speck of dust? Correct.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Which US crime drama starred Matthew McConaughey

0:05:38 > 0:05:39..and Vince Vaughn in season two?
0:05:39 > 0:05:41Is True Detective.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45It is incorrect, Kitty, you're frozen out of the next question.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49The British fashion brand founded by Ray Kelvin is Ted what?
0:05:49 > 0:05:52- Mike.- Baker.- Correct. And you have released your ball
0:05:52 > 0:05:54and you are rolling next on the blue lane.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57APPLAUSE
0:05:59 > 0:06:04You are on the blue lane. And it has a reasonable sized edge.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07It is one of our shorter lanes. A chance to earn big money.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10But you only need £850 or more
0:06:10 > 0:06:13to get yourself through to the next round.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15So is 850 possible for you?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Yeah, I think I can do that.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21- I need to try and take Katie out of the game, I think.- Best of luck.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23- Are you ready?- Thank you.- Let's roll.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Fighting talk from regional sales manager Mike,
0:06:26 > 0:06:28looking to top Katie's score.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32- Little bounce there. - It has got a bit of pace on it.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35But you have taken Katie... Is it too much pace?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38No! It scores you £1,300!
0:06:38 > 0:06:41APPLAUSE
0:06:41 > 0:06:43- Congratulations, Mike.- Thank you.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45You're guaranteed to be going through to the next round.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46Katie is going to have to wait
0:06:46 > 0:06:49and see what the others have up their sleeves.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52- Is that your usual technique, the lob?- Um... Yeah.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55A little bounce at the beginning hopefully takes a little
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- speed off the ball. - Well done.- Thank you.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01So only two lanes left. Whichever one of you releases your ball next
0:07:01 > 0:07:04will roll on the yellow lane, the other will be left with the red lane.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Fingers on buzzers.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14- Kitty.- Mars.- Incorrect, it's Saturn.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17You are frozen out of the next question.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26You are back in the game, Kitty.
0:07:26 > 0:07:30Beginning with I, which class of animals have segmented bodies,
0:07:30 > 0:07:32jointed legs and external skeletons?
0:07:32 > 0:07:34- Carl.- Insects?- Correct.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37You need one more correct answer to release your ball.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41If I mix together red and blue paint, which secondary colour
0:07:41 > 0:07:42would I make?

0:07:53 > 0:07:55- Kitty?- Lenny Henry?- Correct.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59You need one more correct answer to release your ball. As do you, Carl.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03For which sport is the player Jocky Wilson most famous?
0:08:04 > 0:08:05- Carl.- Tennis?
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Incorrect, it's darts. SHE LAUGHS
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Sorry, it is just the image of Jocky Wilson playing tennis.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13It has blown my tiny mind somewhat there.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15- Look him up later.- I will. My grandad will kill me.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18You are frozen out of the next question, Carl.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Kitty, the floor is yours. Get this right, you will release your ball.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23You don't have to answer it if you don't know.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Which British choreographer won two Tony Awards
0:08:26 > 0:08:27for his work on Swan Lake?
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Matthew Bourne. You are back in the game, Carl.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- A bit of a let-off for you there. - I know. Phew.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38Which is the first month of the year that has a name starting with
0:08:38 > 0:08:40a vowel?
0:08:40 > 0:08:42- Carl.- April?- Correct. You have released your ball,
0:08:42 > 0:08:44you are rolling next on the yellow lane.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47Kitty, you have been left with the red Lane.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49APPLAUSE
0:08:52 > 0:08:56- So, Carl, struggled to get there. - Just a slight bit.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58But you did eventually.
0:08:58 > 0:08:59And you are on the yellow lane.
0:08:59 > 0:09:04To guarantee you a place in the next round, you need £850 or more.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09Which Katie thought was going to be quite tough on the longer lanes.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11How do you see it?
0:09:11 > 0:09:15I think it is a bit of an ask, but I should be able to do it.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16How did it go in practice?
0:09:16 > 0:09:19- I overshot the runway many times. - LAUGHTER
0:09:19 > 0:09:22- Playing safe is not really an option.- In other words, not so well.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24- Yeah.- OK, well, are you ready?
0:09:24 > 0:09:26- Yep.- Let's roll.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Carl from West London, not oozing with confidence.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32But Katie is looking worried.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Can Carl rise to the challenge?
0:09:34 > 0:09:36This has got a bit of welly. But is it too much?
0:09:36 > 0:09:40It is rolling up to the big sums. It has taken over Katie's 800.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43And it stops on £1,000!
0:09:43 > 0:09:48APPLAUSE We have some high rollers here today.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Katie, sweating a little?
0:09:50 > 0:09:53I think I am going home. Kitty is rather good.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57Well, we will see, because Kitty is on the red lane.
0:09:57 > 0:10:01It is the longest lane. It is the shortest edge.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02- Yeah.- How did it go in practice?
0:10:02 > 0:10:06It didn't go too badly in practice, but I am quite nervous now.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Well, Katie rolled 800.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11To guarantee you a place in the next round, Kitty,
0:10:11 > 0:10:13you need £850 or more.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15- Are you ready?- Yeah.
0:10:15 > 0:10:16Let's roll.
0:10:16 > 0:10:21Left with the red lane, can student Kitty beat these high rollers?
0:10:22 > 0:10:25£850 sees her through.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27It is going up the lanes, but is it enough?
0:10:27 > 0:10:28I'm not sure it is...
0:10:30 > 0:10:34And it scores you £550.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38APPLAUSE
0:10:38 > 0:10:41- Not quite enough there, Kitty. If you had a bit more oomph...- Yeah.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44..in that roll, it would have notched up a few more cash zones.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46But at the end of those first rolls,
0:10:46 > 0:10:50Katie has £800, Mike has £1,300,
0:10:50 > 0:10:54Carl has £1,000 and Kitty has £550.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57So Katie, Mike and Carl, you are through to the next round.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58Please return to your podiums.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01APPLAUSE
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Oh, Kitty, where do you feel it went wrong?
0:11:03 > 0:11:06- I think I just didn't throw it hard enough this time.- Yeah.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08You obviously had some big rolls in you in practice,
0:11:08 > 0:11:10- but it is under the spotlights, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Well, good luck with your studies and thank you so much for playing.
0:11:13 > 0:11:14Bye-bye.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16APPLAUSE
0:11:18 > 0:11:21Congratulations, Mike, Katie and Carl,
0:11:21 > 0:11:22you are through to the next round.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26And with some big amounts posted there as well.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30So, Mike, tell us about the high-pressure job that you do.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33Well, I work for a motor finance company
0:11:33 > 0:11:37and have a team of eight very strong characters,
0:11:37 > 0:11:39all very well-experienced guys,
0:11:39 > 0:11:42that work all over the country, so they do take
0:11:42 > 0:11:45a lot of looking after, but they do work very hard also.
0:11:45 > 0:11:49So there is a lot to...a lot to manage day-to-day.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52- So you can deal with pressure very well.- I hope so, yeah.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54I quite enjoyed the first roll there.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56And what do you do in your spare time, Mike?
0:11:56 > 0:12:00When I have any, I generally like to spend time with my wife, Emma.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03I have a nine-year-old son, Fletcher.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07And we have two cats as well, one of them which is a very little kitten.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11It's a little crazy at the moment, so he takes a lot of looking after.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13OK.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Katie, tell us about these students that you take on tours.
0:12:16 > 0:12:21Well, they are 16 to 18 year olds, mostly, from the US and Canada.
0:12:21 > 0:12:26I take them to places like Italy and Ireland, through London and Paris.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28So it is really lovely.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31And are you on the front of the bus doing the tour on the mic?
0:12:31 > 0:12:34I do all of that and then I get off the bus...
0:12:34 > 0:12:35So we sometimes do Rome in a day.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38I'll get them there... At eight o'clock, we will be in the Vatican.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40I take them for lunch somewhere nice.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Then the afternoon is the Coliseum and the Forum.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47And then I will do a tour around all of Rome on foot to
0:12:47 > 0:12:51- sort of give them a sense of the Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona.- Wow.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54And if you imagine that, that is sort of what I do in London,
0:12:54 > 0:12:55Paris, Amsterdam.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Has it put you off having teenagers?
0:12:57 > 0:12:59See, I actually quite like teenagers,
0:12:59 > 0:13:01which I think is a bit weird.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04I think they are just people who are, you know, rebelling a bit
0:13:04 > 0:13:07and are learning stuff. But I like giving them back.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09I really do.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12- Safely back on the bus. - Yeah, exactly. Off you go.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Carl, tell us a bit about what your job entails.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18I deal with the quality control of photos of properties.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20So is that for the real estate businesses then?
0:13:20 > 0:13:24Yeah, we deal with estate agents, property developers.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Yeah, that is the English version of that.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30- Is that for ESTATE agents that you do that?- Correct, it is.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32- So, do you have an interest in photography?- Yeah, I do.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35I was lucky enough to have one of my photos on a billboard
0:13:35 > 0:13:37in Piccadilly Circus,
0:13:37 > 0:13:39- which was really exciting. - Fantastic.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43Well, the money you earned is added to your personal bank.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51But only one of you can reach today's final and play for that money.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53Round Two.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55And we're shutting down the shortest lane.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57And now we are introducing danger zones,
0:13:57 > 0:14:01meaning any of the cash zones from £100 all the way to £1,300
0:14:01 > 0:14:03could become a danger zone.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06If that happens, its value drops to zero.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09How many danger zones you face depends on how well you do
0:14:09 > 0:14:10in the questions.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Release your ball first and not only will you take the shortest lane
0:14:13 > 0:14:16with the biggest edge, but you will have no danger zones.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19This time, you will need to answer four questions correctly
0:14:19 > 0:14:21to release your ball. Fingers on buzzers.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25Which international church founded in 1954 is
0:14:25 > 0:14:27based on the theories of L Ron...
0:14:27 > 0:14:30- Mike.- Scientology.
0:14:30 > 0:14:31..L Ron Hubbard? Is correct.
0:14:33 > 0:14:37The composer Johannes Brahms was also famous for playing which instrument?
0:14:37 > 0:14:38Katie.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40- Piano.- Correct.
0:14:40 > 0:14:46Which European country did Indonesia become independent from in 1945?
0:14:46 > 0:14:48- Mike.- France.- Incorrect, Netherlands.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50You are frozen out of the next question.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54Which boy band had UK number one singles with Swear It Again
0:14:54 > 0:14:56and Flying Without Wings?
0:14:56 > 0:14:59- Katie.- Westlife.- Correct.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01You are back in the game, Mike.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04What is the maiden name of the character Scarlett
0:15:04 > 0:15:06in Margaret Mitchell's novel Gone With The Wind?
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- Katie.- O'Hara.- Correct.
0:15:09 > 0:15:13One more correct answer, Katie, and you will release your ball.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Which former British athlete was the first ever to
0:15:15 > 0:15:18clear 18m in the triple jump?
0:15:18 > 0:15:19Katie.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23I've just forgotten his name. He's a presenter.
0:15:23 > 0:15:24- Jonathan Edwards.- Yeah.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27You're frozen out of the next question.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31If I visited all the US states in alphabetical order, which
0:15:31 > 0:15:33would I visit first?
0:15:33 > 0:15:36- Carl.- Alabama?- Correct.
0:15:38 > 0:15:42In chemistry, Dmitri Mendeleev is credited with designing...
0:15:42 > 0:15:43- Katie.- The periodic table.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46..which organizational chart? Correct.
0:15:46 > 0:15:47You have released your ball
0:15:47 > 0:15:49and you're rolling first on the blue lane.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52APPLAUSE
0:15:56 > 0:15:59Well done. Your general knowledge has won you the shortest lane available
0:15:59 > 0:16:01with the biggest edge.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03And no danger zones, Katie.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06And get your ball on the edge in this round and it is worth...
0:16:06 > 0:16:08£2,000!
0:16:08 > 0:16:10APPLAUSE
0:16:10 > 0:16:14And you have two rolls this time, which will be added together.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Whoever earns the least is leaving us.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19Katie, last time you had a nervy weight,
0:16:19 > 0:16:21having got the shortest lane with the biggest edge,
0:16:21 > 0:16:24because you were perhaps a little bit too cautious.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Would you agree?
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Yes. My...colleagues? What do you call them?
0:16:29 > 0:16:30My competitors.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- Them. Over there. They are really good.- Yeah.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Well, you probably underestimated them slightly, I think.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39I think I did. Because I assumed that they were going to go big
0:16:39 > 0:16:42and end up going over the edge. So I thought caution was better.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45But now I am thinking I have to be a little bit more flamboyant.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48So is the back roll, the technique where you kind of flick
0:16:48 > 0:16:50- your wrist, is that going to stay? - I think so.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Just because it is really hard not to put it over the edge.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57See you do need to slow it down somehow.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00- So I'm going to try it again. And see what happens.- Are you ready?
0:17:00 > 0:17:02- I am.- Let's roll.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07First onto the lanes again. Katie knows she has to up her game.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10She is sticking with the backspin.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16Oh... You have demonstrated it this time. It has gone over the edge.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19- And that roll, Katie, scores you... - Zero.- ..nothing!
0:17:20 > 0:17:24- That was too big.- I know. It is really hard to not do that. So...
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Oh, well.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28There are two lanes left. We have reset the podiums.
0:17:28 > 0:17:32Whichever of you releases your ball next will roll on the yellow lane,
0:17:32 > 0:17:34the other will be left with the red lane.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37And you will both need facing danger zones. Fingers on buzzers.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42What type of malware shares its name with an invertebrate animal
0:17:42 > 0:17:44usually found in garden soil?
0:17:44 > 0:17:45- Mike.- A worm.- Correct.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51What is the full name of the chat show host nicknamed Parky?
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- Mike.- Michael Parkinson.- Correct.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59The albums Everything Must Go and Send Away The Tigers... Mike.
0:18:02 > 0:18:03Gone.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05..are by the band Manic Street what?
0:18:05 > 0:18:07- And it was Preachers.- Preachers.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09You are frozen out of the next question.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Which traditionally South Asian garment
0:18:11 > 0:18:15beginning with S was David Beckham pictured wearing in 1998?
0:18:15 > 0:18:16Carl.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19- Sarong?- Correct. You are back in the game, Mike.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Which famous jewellery store features in the title of a novella...
0:18:23 > 0:18:27- Mike.- Tiffany's.- ..by Truman Capote? Yes, it is Tiffany's, correct.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31One more correct answer, Mike, and you will release your ball next.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33In the children's TV show of the same name,
0:18:33 > 0:18:36we what is the name of Miley Cyrus's pop star persona?
0:18:38 > 0:18:40- Carl.- Hannah Montana.- Correct.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44- Did you know that, Mike? - I did, yes. Sadly, yes.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48The October Revolution took place in 1917 in which country?
0:18:48 > 0:18:51- Mike.- Russia.- Correct. You have released your ball,
0:18:51 > 0:18:53you are rolling next on the yellow lane.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Carl, you have been left with the red lane.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58APPLAUSE
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Mike, have you decided which is your happy place,
0:19:04 > 0:19:05the questions or the lane yet?
0:19:05 > 0:19:08Um... I thought it might be the questions,
0:19:08 > 0:19:10but they are a little challenging today,
0:19:10 > 0:19:16so perhaps I will be a little bit better with the rolling today.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Well, you do face one danger zone there, on the yellow lane,
0:19:19 > 0:19:21so before you roll, we need to find out where it is.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24It is going to move up and down your lame.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28And it will stop when you press that button there. Good luck.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33And it stops on £1,000.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35That is gone from the lane.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37You rolled 1,300 before.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40- So does that look a bit scary?- It is.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44The distance I have been rolling the ball, yes, I might have to go
0:19:44 > 0:19:48either a little short or be very bold and go for the edge.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51- Are you ready?- I'm ready.- Let's roll.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54Looks like the danger zone couldn't have landed in a worse
0:19:54 > 0:19:55place for Mike.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Can he readjust his roll to avoid it?
0:19:59 > 0:20:02Yes, it's a big roll. Is it going to stop? Is it going to stop?
0:20:02 > 0:20:04No! It is over the edge.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08Mike, it was a bit too bold, and it scores you...nothing.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- So...- Didn't work.- Didn't work.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16A little bit too much on that.
0:20:16 > 0:20:21Carl, neither Katie nor Mike have managed anything yet...
0:20:21 > 0:20:22- Great news.- ..on their rolls.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24However, you are left with the red lane,
0:20:24 > 0:20:26which means you have two danger zones.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Before you roll, we need to find out where they are going to be.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30They are moving up and down your lane.
0:20:30 > 0:20:35When you press that button there, they will stop. Good luck.
0:20:35 > 0:20:39And they have stopped on £900 and £750.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42They are now replaced with zero. What do you think about that?
0:20:42 > 0:20:45I was hoping they would be further down,
0:20:45 > 0:20:48near the lower denominations, but I have just got to play it safe.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51- Are you ready?- Yeah.- Let's roll.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53- VOICEOVER:- Facing double danger zones,
0:20:53 > 0:20:57can Carl renew his membership to the high roller's club?
0:20:58 > 0:21:01The other two have just been refused.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Smooth.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Steady roll.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Heading up towards your first danger zone. Is it going to stop?
0:21:08 > 0:21:09Is it going to tick over?
0:21:09 > 0:21:10Yes, it does.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12And it scores you £850.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19- Excellent roll.- Thank you very much. - All things considered there.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Right between those two danger zones.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24- Not the place that you would choose to go.- No.
0:21:24 > 0:21:25But a good amount.
0:21:25 > 0:21:26OK, before everyone rolls again,
0:21:26 > 0:21:29let's have a look at what you've earned so far.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30Katie, you have nothing.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Mike, you have nothing.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34And, Carl, you have £850.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38APPLAUSE
0:21:38 > 0:21:41Is there a bit of relief in you, Katie,
0:21:41 > 0:21:43that Mike also failed to register a score?
0:21:43 > 0:21:46- Oh, God, yeah. - You set a target for him, don't you?
0:21:46 > 0:21:49Yeah, it has to be big and it has to be good.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51So it needs to be about 1,000.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55So if I can aim there then he's got to go into that horrid zone
0:21:55 > 0:21:57over there between the zero and the edge.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59So I think that's where I need to go.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02But he is very good. So we will see.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04- Are you ready?- Yeah.- Let's roll.
0:22:06 > 0:22:10Hoping to roll big and push Mike into his danger zone territory,
0:22:10 > 0:22:13Katie is opting for a more traditional roll this time.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Slow to start off with.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20And it stops on £500. We'll add that to your first roll.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Gives you a total of £500.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25APPLAUSE
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Is that going to be enough, Katie?
0:22:27 > 0:22:31No. I think that's just not. But hey, that's life.
0:22:31 > 0:22:36- It does mean of course, Carl, you are definitely going through.- Thank you.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40Because Katie didn't beat your first roll of £850.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44What we do know, Mike, is that you have a target now.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46The danger zone remains where it is on 1,000.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51But you only need 550 to guarantee yourself a place in the next round.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55Yeah, the danger zone is the threat though.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58So it's going to be a very tricky roll this one, I think.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00- Are you ready, Mike? - I am. Yes.- Let's roll.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05With Carl already through, Mike has a clear target.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09Beat £500 and he books his place in the next round.
0:23:09 > 0:23:14There is the bounce. It's creeping up the cash zones.
0:23:14 > 0:23:15And it clips Katie.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17Finishes on £600.
0:23:17 > 0:23:18We add that to your first one.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20It means that you have £600.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25You did pretty much just enough there, Mike. Congratulations.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- You are definitely going through to the next round.- Thank you.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31- Katie, you are not. Sadly.- No.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34And, Carl, here we are with a free roll.
0:23:34 > 0:23:39Two danger zones still there on £900 and £750.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42- There is no pressure now. - You say that.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45- LAUGHTER - There is always pressure.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48Well, there's pressure I suppose to get some good sums in the bank.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52If only I was like Mike who deals with pressure very good.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54- But we'll see.- Are you ready?
0:23:54 > 0:23:56- Fingers crossed.- Let's roll.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03- VOICEOVER:- The perfect opportunity here for Carl to build his bank.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08It's a good, smooth roll. Heading into the cash zones.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10Where is it going to stop?
0:24:10 > 0:24:11It's not, is it? It's not.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14It's not! Just short of the danger zone.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16It scores you £700.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20We add that to your first roll and you have a total of £1,550.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24APPLAUSE
0:24:24 > 0:24:27You are very good at just avoiding danger zones, Carl.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30I'm really not. I don't know what is going on.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34It's going very well so far. With those two rolls added together,
0:24:34 > 0:24:35Mike, you have £600,
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Carl, you have £1,550,
0:24:38 > 0:24:40and Katie, you have £500.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Which means, Mike and Carl, you are through to the next round.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Please return to your podiums.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49- Great general knowledge, Katie.- Thank you.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51- I'm just not very good at rolling. - LAUGHTER
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Hasn't been your forte, has it?
0:24:53 > 0:24:56I don't think so. I didn't ever really think it was going to be.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Unfortunately, Katie, you earned the least amount of money in that round.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01I'm afraid you are leaving here with nothing.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04- But no doubt you'll be on your travels again very soon.- Yep.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06I'm off next month.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Have a fantastic time. And thank you so much for playing. Bye-bye.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12APPLAUSE
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Congratulations, Mike and Carl.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20You are through to the next round. Mike, high-pressure job.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24No doubt you need some kind of relaxation time away from that.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27Something to take away from the stresses and strains of work.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30- So what do you do? - I like to play golf. Or rather,
0:25:30 > 0:25:34golf likes to play me is probably more the case.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37Do you want to share your handicap with us?
0:25:37 > 0:25:39The clubs generally, and the balls.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42So you're not even playing with an official handicap?
0:25:42 > 0:25:44- 28.- Not bad.- Yeah. - You can have a nice round.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47- I can have a round. - It doesn't always spoil the walk.- No.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50- I normally like to go for a buggy, so...- Oh, Mike!
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Bit lazy in that respect, I'm sorry.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56And, Carl, what do you like to do in your spare time?
0:25:56 > 0:25:59I've been a bit busy recently. I've just got married.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02- Aw, congratulations.- Thank you.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05So the last few months I've been a bit of a groomzilla.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08- Have you?- Yeah.- You've taken control of things, have you?
0:26:08 > 0:26:11Pretty much organised the whole thing. Um...
0:26:11 > 0:26:13My fiancee kind of took a back-seat on everything.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16- What does she do then? Just a dress? - She just signs it off.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18She just says, "Yeah, sure. That sounds fine."
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Did she approve at the end? Was she happy with everything?
0:26:20 > 0:26:23I think she didn't really care. She just nodded at everything I said.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26At the end of it all, Carl, you must have been incredibly proud
0:26:26 > 0:26:29- when it all came off. - Yeah, it was a really nice day.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32The money you earned is now added to your personal bank.
0:26:37 > 0:26:41That money is safely banked for the final should you manage to get there.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43Round Three.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46And we are shutting down another lane.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48In this round, there is only one danger zone,
0:26:48 > 0:26:51and the first player to release their ball will control it
0:26:51 > 0:26:53and can place it anywhere on their opponent's lane.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56You will need five correct answers to release your ball.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Fingers on buzzers.
0:26:59 > 0:27:00If I were to take a balloon
0:27:00 > 0:27:05and rub it on my head till my hair stood on end, what sort of... Carl.
0:27:05 > 0:27:06Static.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10..electricity would I have created? Static. Correct.
0:27:10 > 0:27:15Which English admiral circumnavigated the globe on the Golden Hind?
0:27:15 > 0:27:16Carl.
0:27:16 > 0:27:17- Nelson.- Incorrect.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20..and shares his name with the term for a male duck?
0:27:20 > 0:27:21Francis Drake.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24You're frozen out of the next question.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Which band had hits in the 1980s with Suspicious Minds
0:27:27 > 0:27:29and She Drives Me Crazy?
0:27:29 > 0:27:30Mike.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Fine Young Cannibals.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Correct.
0:27:34 > 0:27:35Had a few of their albums?
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Showing my age there, yeah.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40You are back in the game, Carl.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43What is the first name of the Beano character known as The Minx?
0:27:43 > 0:27:44Mike.
0:27:44 > 0:27:45Minnie.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47Correct.
0:27:47 > 0:27:51What extinct group of elephants had varieties including... Carl.
0:27:51 > 0:27:52Mammoth.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54Correct. ..including dwarf and woolly.
0:27:56 > 0:28:01Beginning with N what term is used to describe a nine-sided shape?
0:28:01 > 0:28:03Mike?
0:28:03 > 0:28:04A nonagon.
0:28:04 > 0:28:05Correct.
0:28:05 > 0:28:10Which golf major did Rory McIlroy win in 2011?
0:28:10 > 0:28:11Carl?
0:28:11 > 0:28:12US Open.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14Correct.
0:28:14 > 0:28:15You are level.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18Two more correct answers needed to release your ball.
0:28:18 > 0:28:23In humans the trachea carries air into which organ? Mike.
0:28:23 > 0:28:24The lungs.
0:28:24 > 0:28:28Correct. You need one more correct answer, Mike, to release your ball.
0:28:28 > 0:28:31What name beginning with R is given to a person who
0:28:31 > 0:28:34acts as a religious teacher for a Jewish congregation?
0:28:34 > 0:28:35Mike.
0:28:35 > 0:28:36Rabbi.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38Correct. And you have released your ball.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40You'll be rolling first on the yellow lane.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42Carl, you've been left with the red lane.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45APPLAUSE
0:28:48 > 0:28:52Get your ball on the edge in this round and it is worth...
0:28:54 > 0:28:57APPLAUSE
0:28:57 > 0:28:59You have three rolls which will be added together.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02And whoever earns the most money in this round
0:29:02 > 0:29:06will be through to the final. Mike, familiar lane.
0:29:06 > 0:29:07- Very much.- The yellow lane.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10You'll roll first this time.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13- OK.- What are you aiming for in your first roll?
0:29:13 > 0:29:17I'm aiming to pitch it for around about the 950-1,000 I think.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19- Are you ready?- I'm ready.- Let's roll.
0:29:21 > 0:29:24Back on the yellow lane, Mike must put his last two rolls
0:29:24 > 0:29:25out of his mind.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29Sticking with the lob.
0:29:29 > 0:29:30Bit of a bounce.
0:29:30 > 0:29:32It's a steady roll.
0:29:32 > 0:29:33It's moving up the cash zones.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35It's going to stop on...
0:29:35 > 0:29:36£1,000!
0:29:36 > 0:29:39APPLAUSE
0:29:39 > 0:29:42950 or 1,000, you said. Happy?
0:29:42 > 0:29:44Quite accurate, yeah. I'm very happy.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46- That's kind of your chuffed face there, isn't it?- Yes, it is.
0:29:46 > 0:29:50LAUGHTER You now control a danger zone.
0:29:50 > 0:29:54You can put it anywhere you like on Carl's lane. From £100 up to £1,300.
0:29:54 > 0:29:55Where are you going?
0:29:55 > 0:30:02To put a little pressure on Carl I think I'm going to put it at 850.
0:30:02 > 0:30:06He's either going to fall short, which still leaves me ahead,
0:30:06 > 0:30:11or he is maybe going to overcook it a little bit and fall off the edge.
0:30:11 > 0:30:17OK, let's take 850 out of your lane, Carl. That's now worth zero.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19Is Mike right in his thinking?
0:30:19 > 0:30:23Yeah, sadly. I was hoping that would be the area I land in.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27- Shall we see how you get on this time?- Yeah.- Let's roll.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31With the placement of a strategic danger zone,
0:30:31 > 0:30:34Mike looking to heap the pressure on Carl.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39It's a big roll. Is it too big?
0:30:39 > 0:30:41It's moving fast towards the end.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Towards the edge.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46And it dribbles off the edge.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48That roll scores you nothing.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53It looked like the side was going to slow it down
0:30:53 > 0:30:56but it appeared to give it a bit more momentum that time, Carl.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58Yeah, it didn't go to plan.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00No, I didn't think that was your plan, Carl.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02After that first roll,
0:31:02 > 0:31:03Mike, you have £1,000,
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Carl, you have nothing.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08Mike, it appeared to work,
0:31:08 > 0:31:11your strategy of putting the danger zone on 850.
0:31:11 > 0:31:12It nearly backfired though.
0:31:12 > 0:31:16Cos although it went over the edge, it was very, very close.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19And that would have really put the pressure on me, then.
0:31:19 > 0:31:23So perhaps that wasn't necessarily a good idea.
0:31:23 > 0:31:27Nevertheless, you are £1,000 ahead going into the second roll, Mike.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29So where are you going to go this time?
0:31:29 > 0:31:31I'm going to go for the edge myself now.
0:31:31 > 0:31:35- Oh, OK. You seem to be in the rolling zone.- Hopefully.
0:31:35 > 0:31:39- Fingers crossed. Let's see if I can keep it going.- Let's roll.
0:31:41 > 0:31:45Firmly in the lead, but this game can turn on a single roll.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46Anything can happen.
0:31:49 > 0:31:50That trademark bounce.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54Heads up the cash zone.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57And stops this time on £950.
0:31:57 > 0:32:01We will add that to your first roll. Gives you £1,950.
0:32:01 > 0:32:03APPLAUSE
0:32:03 > 0:32:07- A bit less, it turned out.- A little bit. Yeah. Still happy with that.
0:32:07 > 0:32:11Still a very good roll. And a lot of pressure on Carl.
0:32:11 > 0:32:14You have the ability to put more pressure on him now.
0:32:14 > 0:32:18Do you want to keep that danger zone where it is on the red lane or
0:32:18 > 0:32:22do you want to move it based on what you've just rolled?
0:32:22 > 0:32:26I think I'd like to move it to 1,100.
0:32:26 > 0:32:30OK, let's move that danger zone up to £1,100.
0:32:30 > 0:32:31Carl...
0:32:32 > 0:32:37If you don't get £650 or more on this roll
0:32:37 > 0:32:40you will have to hit the edge on your next roll.
0:32:40 > 0:32:42Which is a scary task.
0:32:42 > 0:32:45Getting married and organising a wedding is fairly scary.
0:32:45 > 0:32:47- Yeah, this is a bit more.- Really?
0:32:47 > 0:32:49The wife said, "Don't come home unless you've got the money."
0:32:49 > 0:32:51LAUGHTER
0:32:51 > 0:32:55- She drives a hard bargain, your wife, doesn't she?- She does, I know.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58- Are you feeling guilty, Mike?- Um... - Thanks, Mike.- A little bit, yeah.
0:32:58 > 0:33:00Sorry, Carl.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03- So, Carl, are you ready?- Yes.
0:33:03 > 0:33:04Let's roll.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09Carl can't go home without the money.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12He has to score big for a chance to stay in touch with Mike.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Oooh. It's gone aside and it's slowed right down.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21It slowed down early.
0:33:21 > 0:33:23And it has just tipped over to £400,
0:33:23 > 0:33:26which means you're currently on £400.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29APPLAUSE
0:33:31 > 0:33:34- It's the edge or nothing next time, Carl.- I know.
0:33:34 > 0:33:38Well, that of course depends on what Mike does with his third roll,
0:33:38 > 0:33:42because if you hit the edge, Mike, it would be impossible for Carl.
0:33:42 > 0:33:44So, after that second roll,
0:33:44 > 0:33:46Mike, you have £1,950,
0:33:46 > 0:33:48Carl, you have £400.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51APPLAUSE
0:33:51 > 0:33:55It's time for the third and final roll in this round.
0:33:55 > 0:34:00Already, Mike, you have heaped huge pressure on Carl.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03You could finish him off with the edge.
0:34:03 > 0:34:04What are you going to do?
0:34:04 > 0:34:09I'm going to try and go big again. Put some more pressure on Carl.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12I'm sure he's feeling a little bit already.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14I'll sadly try and make it a little bit more.
0:34:15 > 0:34:19OK, Mike, remember he can't go home if he doesn't win money today.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22LAUGHTER
0:34:22 > 0:34:24I'll give him a lift.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26A lift? I'm not quite sure where to, Carl.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28Yeah.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31- OK, Mike. If you are ready, let's roll.- Thank you.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35Great consistency from Mike so far.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Can he hit the high cash zones again?
0:34:40 > 0:34:42There is the bounce.
0:34:42 > 0:34:47And it's moving up towards the higher cash zones.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50And it finishes on £950,
0:34:50 > 0:34:53giving you a total of £2,900.
0:34:53 > 0:34:57Congratulations. APPLAUSE
0:34:57 > 0:34:59Incredibly consistent rolls.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01Seems to be, yeah.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Whatever I'm doing is working well, technique wise.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06And you have a choice to make.
0:35:06 > 0:35:11Do you want to keep that the danger zone in Carl's lane on £1,100
0:35:11 > 0:35:13or would you like to move it?
0:35:13 > 0:35:17I think it's pretty much all or nothing for Carl.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20So I think the only thing I can do to apply a little more
0:35:20 > 0:35:22pressure is put it on the 1,300.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24Let's put it there then.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26£1,300 is now gone from your lane and worth zero.
0:35:26 > 0:35:30But if you land on it, Carl, it doesn't really matter
0:35:30 > 0:35:32because you need the edge.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34Have you got the edge in you?
0:35:34 > 0:35:36I'd better do.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38- LAUGHTER - Let's hope so.
0:35:38 > 0:35:42We normally say go big or go home but in your case...
0:35:42 > 0:35:44you won't be going home.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46LAUGHTER
0:35:46 > 0:35:48I'm in a bit of a bad situation here.
0:35:48 > 0:35:52- OK, Carl, are you ready? - Yes.- Let's roll.
0:35:54 > 0:35:56Carl has been pushed all the way.
0:35:56 > 0:35:59One last roll to try and hit the edge.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04It's big.
0:36:04 > 0:36:05It's moving towards the edge.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07It's slowing down.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09But it's not going to be.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12And it drops over the edge. It scores you nothing.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15Which means your total from all those rolls is £400.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18APPLAUSE
0:36:19 > 0:36:22That was a really valiant attempt, Carl.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24With the three rolls added together,
0:36:24 > 0:36:26Mike has £2,900,
0:36:26 > 0:36:29but Carl only has £400.
0:36:29 > 0:36:33That means, Mike, you take what you have earned through to today's final.
0:36:33 > 0:36:35Congratulations. Please return to your podium.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38APPLAUSE
0:36:38 > 0:36:41Carl, you earned the least amount of money in that round.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44I'm afraid you're leaving here with nothing.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46Which means you're going home with nothing.
0:36:46 > 0:36:48LAUGHTER
0:36:48 > 0:36:50You can make a plea to your wife now if you like.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52Please let me back in.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55LAUGHTER
0:36:55 > 0:36:58It's good. It was short. How could she say no to that, Carl?
0:36:58 > 0:37:00And to the point. Exactly.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02Thank you so much for playing. It's been great having you here.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04- Thank you.- Bye-bye.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07APPLAUSE
0:37:08 > 0:37:11Congratulations, Mike. You have made it through to the final,
0:37:11 > 0:37:14where you're playing for all the money you've earned today.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16A total of £4,800.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18Brilliant.
0:37:18 > 0:37:19- Yes.- Fantastic.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22- You look quite pleased with that amount.- Very much. Yeah.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24What will you do with that money?
0:37:24 > 0:37:27I think I'd like to take my wife, Emma, and son, Fletcher, on holiday.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30Back to Los Angeles would be really nice.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32Back there? So you've been there before?
0:37:32 > 0:37:36Yeah, a few times, but before, you know, he could walk really.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39- So I think he would appreciate it a lot more now.- Good stuff.
0:37:41 > 0:37:42It's the final.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45And we're shutting down one more lane.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47Which leaves only the red lane.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50We have removed the cash values from that lane, leaving only
0:37:50 > 0:37:53the edge, which is now worth all the money you have earned today.
0:37:53 > 0:37:57Stop your ball on the edge and you will win £4,800.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00APPLAUSE
0:38:00 > 0:38:02Go over the edge and you get nothing.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05But you have a chance to make it easier for yourself
0:38:05 > 0:38:07by answering some more questions.
0:38:07 > 0:38:10Each correct answer increases the size of the edge.
0:38:10 > 0:38:13The more questions you get right, the bigger the edge will be.
0:38:13 > 0:38:15And the easier your final roll.
0:38:15 > 0:38:18You have 75 seconds to get as many right as you can.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21- Is everything clear?- Yes, thank you.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24Let's put 75 seconds on the clock.
0:38:24 > 0:38:27Your time will start when I have read the first question.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29In which city would you find the famous
0:38:29 > 0:38:30Flat Iron building?
0:38:30 > 0:38:32New York.
0:38:32 > 0:38:33Correct.

0:38:36 > 0:38:37of a current in a circuit?
0:38:37 > 0:38:38Amp.
0:38:38 > 0:38:39Correct.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42Who is the eldest child of Queen Elizabeth II?
0:38:42 > 0:38:43Margaret.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45Incorrect. Prince Charles.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47If I were in the musical with the songs Radio Ga Ga
0:38:47 > 0:38:50and Don't Stop Me Now, in which musical would I be?
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Um...
0:38:52 > 0:38:54Pass.
0:38:54 > 0:38:55We Will Rock You.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57The core of Harry Potter's wand consists
0:38:57 > 0:39:00of a feather from what mythical creature?
0:39:00 > 0:39:01An owl.
0:39:01 > 0:39:02A phoenix.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05CO2 is the chemical formula for what?
0:39:05 > 0:39:06Oxygen.

0:39:17 > 0:39:18a semibreve last for?
0:39:18 > 0:39:19Four.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22Correct. Which professional English football club
0:39:22 > 0:39:24are famously nicknamed the Tigers?
0:39:24 > 0:39:25Leicester.
0:39:25 > 0:39:26Hull City.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29In legend, Guinevere was the wife of which...
0:39:29 > 0:39:31- King Arthur.- Correct.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33Who played Private Pike in the classic TV series
0:39:33 > 0:39:35Dad's Army?
0:39:35 > 0:39:36- Pass.- Ian Lavender.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38If I'm in the European city that shares its name with
0:39:38 > 0:39:42the title of an 1981 UK top ten single for Ultravox...
0:39:42 > 0:39:43Vienna.
0:39:43 > 0:39:45Correct. What sort of device features in the
0:39:45 > 0:39:47title of an...
0:39:47 > 0:39:49Time is out.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52..1895 HG Wells novel? It's Time Machine.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55But I can tell you, Mike, you answered five questions correctly.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58To see what that score has done to the edge,
0:39:58 > 0:40:00let's take the lanes for the final time.
0:40:06 > 0:40:10- Good score, Mike.- Thanks, Gabby.- It's got you a decent-sized edge.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Because every one of your correct answers increases
0:40:13 > 0:40:16the size of your edge. Let's put them onto your lane.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18One. Two.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20Three. Four.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Five.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24There it is.
0:40:24 > 0:40:28How confident are you of hitting the edge?
0:40:28 > 0:40:32It looks an awfully long way now. From here.
0:40:32 > 0:40:35But I think I can do it.
0:40:35 > 0:40:36You have a choice to make.
0:40:36 > 0:40:40You can roll for the full £4,800 with only one ball
0:40:40 > 0:40:43and one attempt to hit the edge. Or you can take two balls,
0:40:43 > 0:40:47but that means you will roll for only half of the money, which is £2,400.
0:40:47 > 0:40:51Or you can take three balls, three attempts to hit the edge, but
0:40:51 > 0:40:55you'll be playing for a third of the money, which is £1,600.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58- So the trip to LA is at stake.- Yeah.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00So, when you see those figures,
0:41:00 > 0:41:03does it help you to decide what you're going to do?
0:41:03 > 0:41:05I think it does now.
0:41:05 > 0:41:07What are you thinking?
0:41:07 > 0:41:10I'm thinking I'm going to try and do it in two balls.
0:41:10 > 0:41:14I think one may be a little too bold.
0:41:14 > 0:41:18Three isn't necessarily going to get me where I'd like to be.
0:41:18 > 0:41:22If I take two and do it on the first that's a bonus.
0:41:22 > 0:41:26So you are taking two balls, Mike, and you are rolling for £2,400.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29APPLAUSE
0:41:31 > 0:41:34You've been very calm, cool, collected,
0:41:34 > 0:41:36and reacted well under pressure.
0:41:36 > 0:41:41But this is arguably the most pressure-filled situation of the lot.
0:41:41 > 0:41:42It is.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45All the hard work you've done has got you here.
0:41:45 > 0:41:48So it's time to take on the edge.
0:41:48 > 0:41:51For £2,400, Mike, let's roll.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06The usual bounce. And it's heading there towards that edge.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08Is it going to stay on the edge?
0:42:08 > 0:42:09Is it?
0:42:09 > 0:42:12- Yes!- It is! It's a perfect first roll.
0:42:12 > 0:42:15Well done, Mike. Huge congratulations.
0:42:15 > 0:42:19That was an absolutely perfect roll. APPLAUSE
0:42:19 > 0:42:22- You are very good at the rolling. - Thank you, yeah.- That was amazing.
0:42:22 > 0:42:26I felt a little pressured then but more than happy with that.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28If I did on the first ball then that was a bonus.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31Well, you had not been on the red lane before, so to do that,
0:42:31 > 0:42:34Mike, is just once again displaying how fantastically well you
0:42:34 > 0:42:36- react to the pressure.- Thank you.
0:42:36 > 0:42:39- And it will go towards a fantastic trip to LA.- It will do. Thank you.
0:42:39 > 0:42:43- Enjoy that.- We will.- With Fletcher and your wife. Congratulations.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46You hit your final edge. You're going home with £2,400.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49APPLAUSE
0:42:49 > 0:42:52- Thank you so much for playing today, Mike. And well done.- Thanks.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54We'll be back next time with more new contestants
0:42:54 > 0:42:56pushing themselves to the edge. Why?
0:42:56 > 0:42:58Because that's how we roll. Bye-bye.
