Episode 6 The National Lottery: In It to Win It

It is the National Lottery. Just press read it to take part. Here is

Now, that's what I call a welcome. What a welcome. Good evening.

Welcome to you. Welcome to the National Lottery In It To Win It.

Will tonight be your lucky night? You could win a fortune in the

National Lottery draws coming up later. But right now I have five

players all wanting that chance to win up to �100,000 right here in

the studio tonight. Let's give them the best welcome. They are Alison.

Here's the deal, if they make it out of the waiting area to join me

here in Winners' Row, I could well be handing them a cheque for a lot

of money. The thing is, who will be the first to sit in Winners' Row?

You each have your own colour. Let's find out who's going to play

It's yellow, it's Mark. Come and Hi Mark, how are you? Good to see

Has anyone ever told you, you look like Will Young? Yes, they've been

calling to me it. You really do. Who did you bring with you for

support? My very glamorous mum and lovely sister. Where have you come

from? I live in London at the moment but I'm originally from

Oldham. Tell me about you, Mark. I want to know what's in Mark's world,

apart from wondering around the place saying - I'm not Will Young.

I work for a social media agency. None the wiser. Facebook and

twitter. This is great you have given me the opportunity to say I'm

not on Facebook, I'm not on Twitter. There are 12 people being me. I'm

none of them. You will never, ever. I can't bear it. Real famous people

probably have hundreds of copies, like if you are Elton John or

Justin Bieber, for example. How do they deal with it? Very famous

people get a blue tick by their name, which means it's the real one.

Now I want one. Now I want the little blue tick. How do I get

that? I don't know. Give me loads of money and... Speaking about

money, you are here to make some money. How much do you want to win?

I want to win as much as I can. What is the money earmarked for?

my spare time I'm in a band. I play key board. I would like to buy

myself a new keyboard. As you look, you can see there is nothing in the

prize fund at the moment. Every question is worth �5,000. Give me a

wrong answer, over there, the Red Area. Don't want to be going there.

Two ways out of there, right back where you started or here in

Winners' Row on the turn of one question. Are you ready? Yes.

OK, it's one. Would you like me to take one as your answer? Yes. So

Mark says "one", if that is right we'll have �5,000 in the prize fund.

Is it one? Yes. Phew. That's your first question. Let's make it

�10,000 right now. Your second call it pat, cheese n' ham. I think

I know this. I would like to you take ham as my answer. Am I to take

that? Yes. OK. I accept ham. If that is right we'll have another

�5,000 in the prize fund making �10,000. Is it ham? Yes. It's good.

When you know, don't hang around. Let's keep that money going. I want

a big, big prize fund. Me too. can do this. Here is your third

question, worth another �5,000, making it �15,000. I wish you luck.

Power sounds like it could be the answer because of maybe the speed

that he throws the dart, I don't know. The Dark Lord sounds like

something you would call someone. Let's go for the Dark Lord. I'll

cross my fingers and hope for best. Would you like me to accept the

Dark Lord? We have an arrangement. Let's hope it's The Dark Lord. If

it is, it's �15,000 in the prize fund and you get to stay in

Winners' Row. If it's not, you open up the game for one of the other

players. I don't know the answer either. So we're both in the dark,

Lord. OK. Is it The Dark Lord? you're kidding me. It's The Power.

OK, well Mark's done us all proud. He's put �10,000 in the prize fund

and set it up nicely for one of our other players to come across to

Winners' Row. I see four beaming faces. One is about to join me.

Here is where we find out who it's It's green, it's Martin. Come and

Hi Martin. All right Dale. Nice to meet you. Nice to see you. Come and

sit down. Well, it's an all-boys show so far, isn't it? How are you

doing? All right. I love that accent. Where is it from? From

Manchester, originally from Gorton, Belle Vue. Famous. Absolutely.

Speedway. Who did you bring with you for support? My two best

friends. My wife and dad, John. a family do tonight. What do you

do? I am a team leader and I also work part-time for Manchester

United. Oh, what do you do for the Football Club? I just coach the

little lads aged about six or seven about two or three evenings a week.

We are a busy man. How much do you want to win tonight? I'd like to

win �100,000. That's why we've come on it, In It To Win It. That's so

refreshing to hear. I embrace that philosophy. A bit selfish on them.

No. Listen, nice to have a big heart but you'd rather have a big

cheque. Yes. I'm teasing you. You join me in Winners' Row with

�10,000. You are going make that �15,000 very soon. But not right

now. We have to get Mark out of the Red Area, so, Martin, I'll be back

shortly. Mark, the Red Area means one question. This is not multiple

choice. I'm going to give you the question. Find me the right answer

and if you do, you'll be sitting alongside Martin in Winners' Row.

If it is wrong, there are three beauties over there. All three of

them would love your company. But that's not going to happen, is it?

No. Please, reveal to me the Red identification number. Shall I

accept "personal"? Yes, please. accept personal, if Mark is correct

and it's personal, you are going straight back to Winners' Row. Is

Girls, don't worry, play the waiting game. One of you I'm sure

at some point will get the chance. On the other hand, looks like we've

two very strong fellows determined to go home with �100,000. I like

that. Martin, are you ready for your first question? Yes, Dale.

wish you the best of luck. Here we song in my life. OK. I'm going to

spare you that rendition. I think what I'll do - Anything Could

Happen and Starry Eyed are UK hit singles by which singer? I'm going

to go for Rumer. Would you like me to accept Rumer as your answer?

Dale. Done. Is the answer Rumour? Ellie Goulding. Never mind.

Actually, I have to tell you, Starry Eyed is a cracking track.

I'm putting off the moment. You're on your way. You know what I'm

OK, I'll be back girls. One of you will be joining me very shortly,

after you've put another �5,000 in. Dallas. But is that because it's a

TV show? I don't know. I honestly have no idea which one it is.

Dallas, New York, Chicago? going to go for New York. Am I to

accept New York as your answer? Yeah, let's go for it. New York.

There it is. Let's try and keep you here. You have earned the right.

�10,000, we need it to be �15,000. Is the answer New York? Dallas.

Again. For now I've got to say - make your way to Red alongside

OK. Well, I've got three smiling beauties in the waiting area.

Because they know I've got an empty Winners' Row. Which means one of

them is about to join me. Who's it It's white, it's Lisa. Come and

Hi darling, how are you? Good to see you. Come and sit down. OK. So,

finally, a bit of beautiful glamour. Well, I've been waiting for this.

Thank you, Dale. Not that they're not too very handsome geezers. They

are. It's lovely to see you. Who have you brought with you for

support? My lovely husband David and my sister Natasha. A family

affair. Where have you come from? South Wales. Oh, yes. OK. What do

you do there? I'm a teaching assistant in a primary school.

have the patience of a saint. I absolutely love it. I really love

my job. I think you have to be around kids and the noise and go -

I can go with that. So you came here with an idea of going home

with some money, how much? I'm not going to lie to you, �50,000 plus

would be fantastic. What would you do with the money? Well, I'm 30

next year. Don't tell everybody your age. I always wanted to go to

Las Vegas. I would love to go to Las Vegas and have a big party for

my 30th. I wish you the best of luck. I'll be back with your

question, Lisa. Boys, this is very much all or nothing. You are either

both going back where you started or you're both going to be back in

Winners' Row with Lisa. I need to have the same answer from both of

you. Boys, are you ready? Yes. Yes. Please, reveal to meet Red Area

I think that, yeah. I don't really like the guy but I'm sure it's Did

you just say - I don't really like that guy. He is he's not one of my

favourites, Dale. Can I ask why you don't like him? I just don't think

he's funny, really, Dale, to be honest. Hi, Ricky, I know you're

watching. Anyway, you've said Ricky Gervais, am I to accept that?

might like him now, if it's the right answer. You've said Ricky

Gervais, if it's the right answer you're going to Winners' Row. Is it

I'm not 100% sure. But I'm going to go with my gut instinct and I'm

going to go with Othello, please, Dale. Accepted, done, sealed. If it

is right, we'll have �15,000 in the prize fund. Let's see. Is it

Othello? As You Like It. I'm so Standby ladies, one of you is going

to be joining me very soon. Martin, are you ready? Let's put some money

in. Yes. For another �5,000, here's Dale, now and then. But I was

thinking of something else. I was thinking of the other guy, the

Hamster, wasn't it? Oh, Richard Hammond. It's obviously something

to do with him being a slow driver. You think? From the question.

being sarcastic. I should take it more seriously because there is a

lot riding on it. But, no, no, I don't care! Right. This is

brilliant, Dale. I don't mean it, you know. I was hoping to get a

kiss off you. Did you really? Well, you wanted one, you got one. If you

get this one right, you might get another one. I'm going to go with

Captain Slow, Dale. I accept Captain Slow, if that is right,

�15,000 in the prize fund. That would be fabulous. Is it Captain

another kiss? Oh, you puckered up then, didn't you? You can wait,

where we make it �20,000. Here's Knightley was in Atonement. I'm not

sure about the other film but I'm happy to go with Keira Knightley.

Would you like me to accept that as your answer? Yes, please. Mark says

Keira Knightley. Is the answer Keira Knightley? Yes. Well done.

OK, I have two beauties either end of the waiting area. One of them is

going to make the walk across the studio and join me here. Which one

Come here, darling. I love you, Dale. I love you, too. Come and sit

down. I have to say - that was the most energetic and exciting start I

have ever... When you came hurtling towards me I thought - oh my

goodness. Thank you, I love you, Dale. I love you too, I do love you

too. How are you? Absolutely fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.

Can't believe I'm here. Who did you bring with you for support? I've

brought my long-suffering husband, Andrew. Oh, look, look, cop the

face on that, it's like, oh, he's had enough already. Are you OK,

Andrew? Yes, fine, thank you. looks really upset. He's been

married to me for 26 years. So you'd look upset if that was the

case. I don't think so, I think you are a catch you are. Oh, thank you,

Dale. And you are looking really lovely and gorgeous. And who's

sitting next to your husband? it's my fantastic friend and

colleague, Louise. Hi, Louise. Your husband is sitting there! Right,

where have you come from? I've come from a place called Kingswinford in

the West Midlands. What do you do? I'm a teacher. I'm currently acting

deputy head. To a fantastic primary school. You are in good company

with Lisa, then. We are, yeah, yeah. How much money would you like?

really like �75,000, Dale. that's good. I've a very special

birthday coming up in June, it's a big one and I've so many plans for

this party. OK. So you need �75,000? No, some of it would be

for the party and I'd really like a nice spanking new, white sports car.

I wish you the best of luck. Thank you very much. You don't have to do

a thing now until I get Lisa out of the Red Area. Lisa, what happened?

I don't know. Darling, it's all going to go very right now. Find me

right answer and you're going right back to Winners' Row. Here's your

question if you are ready. I am don't even know if this is a

musical but it is the only thing that's coming into my head. I will

say the Lion King. If that's right, back to Winners' Row? Is it Lion

Jeannette. I'm sorry you are on your own over there. But you have

seen this show, you know what can happen. It can be the last person

out that wins all the money, you never know. For now I have four in

Winners' Row. And actually, I'm going to have a little flurry of

talcum powder here and say - not good enough, �20,000. We need more

money in there. Which means you're going to put �5,000 in. Come on,

Alison, you can do this. Hopefully. I wish you the best of luck. Thank

might like this. I suppose chickens hens and hens are chickens, so I'm

going to go for brood, Dale. Would you like me to accept brood as your

answer? I would, Dale. Alison says brood, if she's right it's �25,000.

looking at a share of �6,250. Just think, at the end of this round

they can put in another �15,000 this. Could be �40,000 before the

end of the round. So, Martin, we me. It's where the first World Cup

was held. Of course it, would have been held in one of those places at

some point. And it was Uruguay. Martin says Uruguay. If he is

correct and it's Uruguay, this is' �30,000 in the prize fund. That's

down, one by one. Here is where it becomes �35,000. Please, let me see

don't know what the answer is, so I'm going to go for Thomas. Would

you like me to accept Thomas as your answer? Yes, please. Mark says

Thomas. I accept Thomas, if that's right �35,000. If not, Red Area. Is

How are you doing Jeannette? Feeling a bit better now. Give me

the biggest smile. Give me a smile. About a minute away, you, there,

soon. After you put �5,000. Let me haven't got a clue. So I'm going to

say St Paul's Cathedral, please, Dale. Would you like me to sake St

Paul's Cathedral as your answer? Yes, please, Dale. OK, I've

accepted St Paul's Cathedral. We now find ourselves wondering

whether we're going to get to 35. feeling? Much better, thank you.

she's asked. Absolutely. You asked at the right moment. There you go.

OK. Now, darling. Who did you bring with you for support? Two of my

lovely daughters, Alison and Juliet. Hi, girls. Where have you come

from? From Horsham in Sussex. how much money would you like to go

away with? Not very much, actually - just �100,000 would be wonderful.

I think that's great. I think that's great. Listen, I hope you go

home with the money. You join me in Winners' Row with �35,000. We need

to get it up a little bit more. You can help with that but not until

I've got Mark out of the Red Area and back into Winners' Row. I'll be

back with you in a moment. Mark, are you ready for your Red Area

question? Absolutely. Take it steady. It's late in the game.

Klaxon could go at any time. Please and I'm pretty sure he goes on

about the Hammers. So I'd like to you take that as my answer. Am I to

accept West Ham as the answer? please. Mark says West Ham it. It

would be wonderful. We'd have a full Winners' Row. Is the answer

West Ham? Yes. Go and sit down. OK. So, we have �35,000 in the prize

fund. A full Winners' Row. You are looking at �7,000 apiece if the

klaxon went right now. If we do another full round and a clean

sweep, as we say, do you realise we could have that up to �60,000 in

one round? Jeannette, are we going to do it? Love to. You have a

wicked smile with a cheeky wink. but I think I'm going to go for the

Doldrums. Because of... Yes. Jeannette says "Doldrums" I've

accepted it. If it is right, you put �5,000. Oh, let it be right.

�40,000 in the prize fund. We can make this �45,000. Are you ready?

one of my favourite comedians. And I don't think it's Russell Howard.

I'm going to go for Jack Whitehall, Dale. You want me to take Jack

Whitehall as your answer? Yes, Dale. I'm glad, we're motoring, and we're

going to get that money up, if it's right. Jack Whitehall, please tell

are you going to do it? Hopefully, Dale. Come on, let's make it

�50,000. Here is your next I to accept purple as your answer?

Yes. OK, there it is. It is lit up. I've taken it. Is the answer

purple? Yes. How's that? All right. You're doing good. Now I'm happy

because if the klaxon went now you are looking at �10,000 apiece. This

is good, we are in business. OK, Lisa. I don't know what this is

satsumas. I really love them. But I don't like the question. You don't

like the question. No. I'll go with India, Dale. Would you like me it

take India as your answer? Please, Dale. I accept India. If that is

right we will a very another �5,000 in the prize fund. Is the answer

India? I'm sorry. Please make your Mark. Let's put another �5,000.

answer? Yes, please. I accept Apollo. If that is right �55,000.

way to Red. OK. Right, well now here is normally where I'll say

we'll bring someone over from the waiting area. You're all here,

which means - here is your Red Area question. I hope it's a good one

for you. You need to be back in Winners' Row to stake your claim on

that share of the prize fund. I wish you luck, are you ready?

Dale. Here is your red area it's Athens. Athens is Greece.

what on earth am I going on about? Let's go for Cairo. Shall we go for

Cairo, do you think? I'm glad your here. Does Cairo? Yeah. I'm going

to ask you both. Lisa, what is your answer? Cairo, Dale. Mark? Cairo.

You are both agreed on Cairo. What is the capital of Egypt? I'm

looking for it to be Cairo. If that indeed is the case, you are both

going back to Winners' Row. Is it Cairo? Yes, well done. Back you go.

KLAXON SOUNDS. Oh, that's timing. The klaxon has

sounded. That means the prize fund is frozen. We're done, �50,000.

That means with a full Winners' Row you are each looking at a minimum

share, with a correct answer of �10,000 apiece. You can relax. You

are just one question away from that cash. I'll be back with your

like to see, a full Winners' Row, nice chunk of change in the prize

fund, �50,000 but here's where you can make some serious money. Oh,

yes, it's the Thunderball draw from the National Lottery. I wish you

the best of luck. Good luck, Welcome, everyone, to the part of

the show that can make you at home a winner. There has been a great

result at Dale's end with everyone making it through to Winners' Row.

We hope to keep that up now with the live draws. First up, we've got

Thunderball which had two lucky top prize winners last Saturday. They

are both �500,000 better off. Well done to them. Later we have a Lotto

question away from that cash. It's lovely to say you've all put money

in. You all have. Jeannette, you played the long game. You waited

over there. You put �5,000 in. Good timing. Very good timing. Now, for

�10,000, if you're ready, I'm going to give you your question. Are you

ready? Yes. Jeannete, I wish you haven't seen a Punch and Judy show

for a very, very long time. OK. I love Punch and Judy and something

me it take Louis Theroux as your answer? I would, Dale. I accept

Louis Theroux as your answer. If it is right, you are going home with

your answer? Please, please. Lisa says monkfish. It's worth

�12,500 to you. Is the answer darling. Sorry, darling. Give her a

time for the big Lotto draw from tonight's National Lottery. Good

Thank you, Dale. Poor Mark, that was stressful. The Lotto rollover

is moments away but first the National Lottery Awards are skug to

influence your powers of influence by nominating a good cause project

that you feel deserves recognition. Dave Braithwaite who manages the

RSB. PB site at Saltholme, and one of last year's award winners is

with us now. It's great to be here. Let's talk

about the Award, the lifelong learning award which Saltholme won,

Best Education project last year. Tell us what it does. It is all

about connecting people with nature, getting out there and learning

about and discovering how fantastic the wildlife in this country is and

more importantly, that needs caring for. How has the funding from the

National Lottery helped? It has been a tremendous help. It's really

made a big difference. We've been able it buy lots of equipment to

get schoolchildren out exploring the wildlife in our wetlands and

been able to create facilities where people can get closer to

nature. It has even helped to us pay for some transport to pay for

coaches so that schools can send classes out to us. All good. I know

the news that you won the award was delivered to you by a special

visitor, which I think we can look at now. Let's have a look.

project here which has been going on for about three years, you

obviously have had a particularly good year and been awarded the Best

Educational Project in the whole country.

Was anyone expecting Bill Oddie to turn up? Absolutely not. It was one

of the best-kept secrets that there has ever been. You didn't know?

had no idea. Great to see him on the reserve. What do you have to

say about people thinking of nominating projects for this year's

awards. Do it. Look at the great work it has done for Saltholme and

for the work the RSPdoes across the country. Get nominating. You are

definitely a fan. You heard Dave. It is very simple and could mean

the world to great National Lottery-funded maybe near you. Joo

would have thought that you'd be handed a cheque and it is for

Jeanette Lane, �25,000? Lovely to meet you. Enjoy it. Alison Wootton.

Yes. From the moment you came hurtling across I knew that

something unusual was going to happen with you tonight. It says,

"Please pay Alison Wootton �25,000." With pleasure. Well done,

darling. Well done to both of you. Thank you. I have to say I have had

a great night tonight on In It To Win It but I do feel for our losers

who didn't go home with the money because it was close. It was
