It's the National Lottery In It To Win It. Most viewers can play along

tonight by pressing the red button. APPLAUSE. Whoa! Thank you! Thank

you! Oh, a very generous welcome. Thank you, and welcome to the

National Lottery In It To Win It. Thank you for joining us, it is

Saturday night, and there is a huge amount of money to be won in the

National Lottery Draws. On top of that, I've got up to 100 grand to

win right here in the studio. Let's meet tonight's five players. They

are Stephen...! Shobha! Liam! Dorothy! And Natalie!Here is how it

works - once they make it out of the waiting area, if they join me

here in Winners' Row, and they are still here at the end of the

programme, I could be handing them a cheque for a lot of money. The

thing is, who will be the first person sitting in Winners' Row? You

each have your own colour. Let's It is yellow, it is Dorothy! Yes!

Hi, lovely. How are you? Come on, darling, welcome. It always is best

to be first. Is it really? It is the best place to be, but you have

got to stay here. I know. Where have you come from, Dorothy? I have

come from Leyland in Lancashire. Nice part of the world. And who is

with you tonight? My lovely husband and my cousin. Do you still work?

No, I am retired. What did you do before you retired? I was a pub

landlady at one time in the 1980s, but I finished my working life as a

sheltered housing manager with the elderly. When did you give up work?

When I was 61. We will leave it there, we will not go, how many

years ago that was. Because you look great now, and let's not have

them all work it out at home. How much would you like to go home

with? 80,000 would be nice. What would you do with 80? Well, it is

my golden wedding next year, and I would like to take all the family

on holiday. Do you need 80 grand for that? No, not really, but we

could have a nice retirement, couldn't we? What else would you

do? I have got a charity close to my heart, and it is Help For Heroes,

I would like to donate some to that. Good. I wish you luck. You know

what I'm going to say. Yes. Every question is worth five grand, every

wrong answer sends you to... red area. The red area, you do not

want to be going there. I don't. Two ways out, right back where

youstarted, or back into Winners' Row. Nothing in the prize fund at

the moment. Let's put some money in. Are you ready? Let's put five grand

in straightaway. Here is your Right, I think I know this one,

Dale, because I do do a bit of texting. And I think, and I hope -

it's laugh out loud. Would you like me to take that? I would. Accept it.

Is it laugh out loud? Yes. I always thought it meant lots of love.

did. I always thought lots of love, which meant I was getting some very

strange texts from my decorator, until I realised he was laughing,

not loving. We have got five grand in the prize fund - not enough.

First one, not bad. Let's make it 10,000. Here is your next

Well, I do know a bit about Grimsby, and I know it's not fashion and I

know it's not car manufacturing. So, my answer is going to be fishing.

Shall I take that? Please, Dale. Yes, I accept fishing, I am sure

you're right. Is it right? Yes. Which means that you are looking at

15 grand, and you are on your own in Winners' Row. I am. That's the

place to be. Here is your next Well, Dale, I was the secretary of

the Royal British Legion at Leyland. We do a lot with the military, and

I do know this answer. It is Wherever You Are. Would you like me

to accept that as your answer? would. Accepted, Wherever You Are.

If it is worth anything, it is worth five grand. Is it the right

answer? Yes. APPLAUSE. 15 grand. Here is where we make it 20. Here

I only know subpoena, when you subpoena to court. So, I'm going to

dismiss under offer. Under penalty. Would you like me to accept under

penalty as the answer? Yes, Dale. accept under penalty. Is it under

penalty? Yes! Because under inquiry was also a bit tempting, very

tempting. Here is your next It's the gold medals, so I have got

to be careful, haven't I? It is not all of the medals, it is the gold

only. I'm going to go down the middle, and I'm going to go with 29.

Would you like me to take 29 as the answer? Yes, Dale. OK, you say 29 -

if that is right, you're still in Winners' Row, with a very robust

25,000 quid. On your own! Thank you. 25,000 quid. On your own! Thank you.

Is the answer 29? Yes! OK, 25 grand. Let's take it to 30,000 - I wish

you the best of luck, here is your next question... This is a name-

He achieved fame in which field - skydiving, cookery or politics?

do not think it is cookery because I watch quite a few cookery

programmes, and I have never heard him on there. Politics, if he is

not English, I would not know. I'm going to have to guess, Dale, and I

am going to go with skydiving. Skydiving I have accepted. If it is,

it is another five grand. Is it? You have �30,000 in the prize fund.

Let's make it 35,000. Here is your That's an incredible achievement.

Well... Well, Dorothy. I think I know this one, Dale, because...

Tread carefully. I know, because there is another one there which

has already done it as well, but not as much. And John Bishop comes

from Liverpool, which is near where we live, and John Bishop is going

to be my answer. If that is right, we will have another five grand in

the prize fund. Is it John Bishop? Yes. 35 grand, let's make it 45,000.

Here is your next question... In which country was the Battle of

Waterloo, that was Napoleon, wasn't it? Well, it's not Russia. It is a

toss-up between France and Belgium. I'm going to go down the middle,

Dale, and go for France. Would you like me to take that as your

answer? Yes, Dale. OK, Dorothy, I shall. France, it is. Is it France?

No, it was Belgium. For now, it is the red area. Thank you, Dorothy,

that was magnificent. APPLAUSE. guys may well be worried if she

makes it out of the red area. You have got a real winning lady here.

Have I got a winning contestant over there? One of you is about to

join me. Who is it going to be? It's pink, it's Stephen! Come and

make some money! APPLAUSE. Hi, Stephen how are you doing? Come

and sit down! Stephen... Yes, Dale. Where have you come from tonight?

Liverpool, Dale. What do you do? I'm a taxi driver, private hire

driver. I still have to do all the necessary. It is all through the

council now. I think that is a good thing, and everybody is legitimate,

so they are insured and everything. Definitely. Who did you bring with

you? I brought my two sisters. Where are they? Hello, girls, good

to see you. How much would you like to go home with? 50 grand upwards.

I want the lot. What would you do with the money? Well, apart from

the obvious, sort my own finances out and get myself in order, a bit

of house refurbishment. A bit of renovation. Renovation, New Garden,

nice garden. You are very welcome. Thanks, Dale. This lovely lady, she

had a good run, so let me get her out of there, back to you, with

your question in a moment. Dorothy... Yes, Dale. I am going to

show you the question. I beg of you, do not rush to judgment, think it

through. Are you ready? I am ready, Dale. Are you sure? Yes. Please

She was with him everywhere. Yes. Any good? The only one I can think

of is Ann, because it sounds right. Ann Murray. Are you saying you

would like me to take Ann Murray as your answer? I would, Dale.

accept Ann Murray, and I really hope she is right. Is Andy Murray's

mum called Ann Murray? Do you know, I could not see it, either. For now,

please make your way back where you That was a tough one. That is a

bitter pill to swallow, given that when you look at that �35,000...

is all done by her. All done by her! Are you ready for your first?

I am ready. Let's have Stephen's I am talking about... Ricky Martin

was the winner of which TV series, a former wrestler...? Yes, I know

this one, Dale. You do? I've watched The Apprentice for the last

couple of series, and that's my answer, The Apprentice. Shall I

take that? Take that, yes. I have accepted The Apprentice. If you are

right, you will have put five grand in, and you're on your own. Is it

The Apprentice? Yes. 40 grand. Make it �45,000, here's your next

Muscat, Muscat - I am pretty sure it's not Yemen. That's just

something in my head. So, it's out of the other two to me. Syria,

Syria... I have not heard of Muscat with that. So, probably by

eliminating, in a sense, them two, I'm going to go for Oman. Would you

like me to take that as the answer? Please, Dale, yes. Accepted. It

cannot be changed. I'd say you were right. But are you? Yes! Well done.

45 grand, and you're alone in Winners' Row. Hang fire a minute.

Liam... Hi, Dale. How is it doing over there? It is all right.

are surrounded by gorgeous girls. Exactly, it could be worse. There's

only one thing which could be better, and that's being over here.

Who is with you? My cousin and my auntie. Listen, don't panic, you

know what In It To Win It is like. Anything can happen. Let's have

your next question. Anything can happen. Very posh. Have you heard

of the word before? It sounds French to me. OK. Like a sofa is

like a chaise longue, is it? That's like a French sofa. That's just

whether I am wrong or not on that one, so I think I am going to

discount that. I'm going to go for wardrobe, Dale. Would you like me

to take wardrobe as your answer? Yes, please, Dale. I accept

wardrobe. If you're right, there will be 50 grand in the prize fund.

Is it a wardrobe? APPLAUSE. Are you ready? I'm Ready, Dale. Come on,

I love a late night curry. Do you know what, I have only for the last

couple of years started getting done to Indian food. I had one the

other night for the first time in a couple of years. I was still

enjoying it two days later, mind. Because it's the only one that I am

familiar with, I'm going to go with the dhal. Are you saying you would

like me to take that as your answer? Please, Dale, yes. I accept

dhal. If it is right, 55 grand, and you are still in Winners' Row. Is

it dhal? No, it is raita. I am sorry. It does mean, however, you

have put in 15 grand. You will be back. OK. For now, please make your

Four waiting to join you in the waiting area. Someone is going to

do just that right now. Let's find out who it is going to be. It is

green, it is Shobha! Hello! How are you? I am good, how are you? Now,

Shob-na is what it says. It doesn't, it says Shobha. Oh, I thought that

was... Which comes from where? is Indian. What's your last name?

Pattni. Putney?! No, P-A-T-T-N-I. Oh, I thought you had a very common

English name there. I am Mrs Putney! No, it's Pattni. So, it's

Shobha. # There's no business like Shobha-isiness...

Who did you bring with you for support? My sister and my niece,

Sheila and Chanel.$$YELLOW They have all got unusual, sort of fancy

names. Where have you come from? London, Dale. What do you do for a

living? I am a pilates instructor and dance teacher. Which is good,

so are you fit? I am. How much money do you want? 100 grand, Dale.

And what is the must-have treat for Shobha? Treat for Shobha - I want

to put a deposit down on the house, that's my very, very best treat.

Boring. Buy a car? Would you buy a fancy car? Something really nice.

Something that would blow your Pre- Raphaelite hair in? She is an

amazing girl, isn't she? Look what happened. Want to get him out of

there. Stephen, you're going back to Winners' Row. Yes, definitely.

Here is your question... Any good? I think so. But I am not 100% sure.

I want you to take your time on this. Julia Bradbury... John

Craven... The only thing what's coming into my head, Dale... I

think it is going to be my answer, is Countryfile. Would you care for

me to take Countryfile as your answer? Please, Dale. Accepted,

done, we have a deal. Stephen believes the answer is Countryfile.

If he is correct, he is going back where he belongs, to stake his

claim on the prize fund. Is it Back you come! That's good, that's

good. Shobha, here is your Do you know the song? Yes. Great

record. Absolutely. Oh, what a record. What a singer. It is not

Ke$ha, definitely not Beyonce, it's Nicki Minaj. Would you like me to

take that as your answer? Yes. accept that. If it's Nicki Minaj,

you have just put five grand in the prize fund, making it 55. Is it

Nicki Minaj? Yes! Stephen, you have just got out of the red area, you

were very nervous about that. We do not want you back in there. Please

give me a correct answer to what I hope is a good question for you.

is not a good one, this, Dale, I will be honest. There is something

about Orpheus which is the only recognisable one. Pygmalion...

that mean anything to you? Nothing at all. I'm just going to have to

follow my gut, and the first thing...what I personally thought,

was, I was in the train of thought that if I had a gut feeling, I

would go with it, so... And that's Orpheus. Would you like me to take

Orpheus as your answer? Please, Dale, yes. I accept Orpheus - if it

is right, we will have 60 grand in there, and you're still in Winners'

Row. Is it Orpheus? No, it's Pygmalion. Orpheus and the

underworld... You have got to go to Expect the unexpected on this show.

Shobha is here in Winners' Row, Stephen, unexpectedly, in the red

area - Natalie, Dorothy and Liam, all waiting patiently to join us

here in Winners' Row. Who is it going to be? Let's find out. It's

blue, it's Natalie! Yes! Come and make some money! Natalie! Hello,

darling. Well, I bet you thought this was not going to happen.

I really did. Well, you are wearing a nice little sparkly top. All the

girls are sparkled up tonight. Where have you come from? I am from

Glasgow. I know Glasgow very well of course. And who are you with

tonight? My mum, Alison, and my step dad, Nick. What do you do in

Glasgow? I am a help desk operator. How much would you like to go home

with? Realistically... No, really. Really, about 30,000. What would

you do with that? Deposit for a house for me and my boyfriend, to

have our own place would be really good. What about if you won, say,

100 grand? I want a big 4x4, the big, big ones. I am with you on

that, absolutely with you. Listen, 55 grand in the prize fund. You're

going to add to that, but you do not have to do a thing right now.

You're only here because Stephen got the answer wrong. So I have to

get him once again out of the red area, back to Winners' Row, to join

you. I'll be back in a moment. Stephen, we have been here before.

One question, and this is not multiple-choice. A word of warning,

I am going to come and sit down for this... Jeopardy - this is serious

now - this is not a good time to be going back there. Yeah. I do not

know how long before the klaxon goes. Are you ready? I'm ready,

Dale. I wish you the best of luck. Here is your question in the red

So, I'm going to let you have that thought. Because I know where the

money is going, it is very important, my friend, we had better

get this right. I have ruined your hair... I say that, there is

nothing there. 82-year-old actor won an Oscar, 2012. It is quite a

big deal for an 82-year-old actor. Yes, I would have thought it would

be in the news. The answer that has just popped into my head, and I

might be doing the fella injustice, I am not 100 % sure, but, I

remember seeing him in a film this year... Is Jack Nicholson.

Would you like me to take Jack Nicholson as your answer? Please,

Dale. Please tell me he is right. Christopher Plummer. Listen, let's

pray you get a chance to come back. For now, it pains me, please make

your way back to where you started. I am so sorry. 55 grand in the

prize fund. At the moment, you're looking at a share of �27,500 each.

I have absolutely no idea. Tom Wolfe is the only name I think I

have really kind of heard of. It is going to need to be a guess. The

World According To Garp... I am going with Tom Wolfe, it is the

only one I know. Would you like me to take that one as your answer?

That's fine. You do not seem sure anyway. No, I do not have a clue.

appreciate your honesty. Natalie says Tom Wolfe, is it right? John

Irving. I am sorry. Please make your way to red. OK. So, it is a

weird old night tonight, Shobha. So far you have put five grand in. We

seem to be having trouble getting to 60k. Here is your next

I am going to go straight in the middle and say Jimmy Carter. I have

not got a clue. Would you like me to take Jimmy Carter as your

answer? Yes. I accept Jimmy Carter. Is that the right answer? I am

sorry, it does mean that you have got to make your way to red. I am

sorry. OK, I have an empty Winners' Row, I have two lovelies in my red

area, and three waiting to join me here in Winners' Row. Who is it

going to be? Let's find out. It is yellow, it's Dorothy! Come and make

some money! Oh, Dale, I cannot believe it! I bet you can't believe

it's happened. There is something about karma. You put in �35,000.

did. And then it must have been excruciating for you to sit there

and watch others put the money in, and every time it did not come up...

I mean, she put 35 grand in. APPLAUSE. I really feel sorry for

Liam, my heart goes out to you. I will be back with your question in

a moment. Girls, you have to work together, OK? You have to both

agree on hopefully the correct answer. So, you have an open

discussion about it. Here is your question... And you are an exercise

guru! Please tell me this is not a bad question! Don't you do that for

a living? I do pilates for a living. What do you think? Because I have

no... I am just thinking... Think of an exercise programme, and we

will just... Because we don't know. OK, the only thing I can think of

is Callanetics. Callan... Callanetics. Which is a programme...

I need you both to give me an answer. Callanetics. OK, if the

answer is Callanetics, you are going back to Winners' Row. Is the

answer Callanetics? APPLAUSE. knew! I mean... KLAXON SOUNDS. The

prize fund is frozen. That klaxon has sounded, which means only one

thing - each of our players is looking at a minimum of �18,333. Be

patient, you are one question away from that money. Just one. On the

other hand, the boys, Stephen and Liam - Liam, you never got a look

in, I am so sorry. I know, it is the luck of the draw, unfortunately.

Stephen, what can I tell you, you've put in some money, I have

loved meeting you, but I have to say to you boys, both, and the

girls are going to say a big...good So, I have got three lovelies in

Winners' Row. One question away. I will be back with that question in

a moment. Relax, relax! I loved her serious back-pedalling. "I do

pilates, I do not do work-outs!" Anyway, hopefully she's going home

with a serious amount of money. In fact, they all are, a nice prize

fund of 55 grand. It does mean, here is where you can win really

big. I hope it is your night tonight, I do wish you well, as we

go over to the National Lottery for tonight's Thunderball drawl. Be

We're live at Lottery HQ, with your host, Matt Johnson! Thanks, Alan

and welcome everyone at home. I'm so relieved that Dorothy managed to

sneak in at the last minute there. It does of course mean that all the

ladies are through to Winners' Row now and all the men have been left

for dust! I don't know what that says for us guys, hey, Alan?

outsmarted by the fairer sex. Not the first time that's happened!

Well, hopefully there's going to be luck for all tonight with the live

draws which are coming right up. First we have Thunderball that's

got a half-a-million-pound top prize, of course, as well as plenty

of other prizes up for grabs. And a little later there's the big Lotto

draw, which tonight could make someone �3.9 million richer. That's

a lot of money, I think you'll agree. And if you're thinking that

there is no way you'll become the next lucky jackpot winner, just

tell that to the owners of the two tickets from last Saturday, who won

over �3 million, and the owner of the winning ticket on Wednesday,

who scooped a cool �2 million. It happened to them - why not to you

this very night? Also coming up, we've got news of some unclaimed

Lotto prizes that could be yours! Well worth taking notice of that.

But right now, it's time for the first draw of the night. Here comes

Matt, please get that first machine Excalibur and set of balls number

six were selected at random today. Good luck to everybody at home. And

All you have to do is to choose the right five. And the third one

tonight... You get three opportunities per week to play this

game - Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. We need just one more

from this, our first machine. And there it is. Start up the second

machine if you would, please, Matt Chamberlain. Every single ticket is

still in play, because if you match with the Thunderball coming up next,

you will win a cash prize. If you have already matched with all of

the other numbers, then that will be the top prize, �500,000. Here we

go... So, here are tonight's Thunderball numbers again, in

ascending order... It is time to go back over to Dale, and the ladies

waiting patiently in Winners' Row. We will be back in a moment, with

information on some big-money prizes, which are waiting to be

Well, there you are, good to see you. Not so long ago, Winners' Row

was very productive, to the tune of �55,000. That means all three of

our players are looking at a prize tonight of �18,333 each, that's the

minimum they can go home with. But how well did they do to get here?

Well, Dorothy, I have to say, you have earned the right to be here.

Thank you, Dale. When I look at that prize fund, it is robust. You

are playing far 18,333. Are you Oh, Dale. I don't listen to Radio 1,

that's the problem. Dale, it is going to have to be a guess, I'm

afraid. I don't think... I really don't know. I am going to go right

down the middle and say Alexa Chung, that's the only one I can think.

Would you like me to take Alexa Chung as the answer? Yes, Dale.

it is Alexa Chung, then the minimum you're going home with is �18,333.

If it isn't, the other girls are playing for �27,500, not �18,333.

Please tell me that Dorothy is correct, and that the answer is

Alexa Chung. I nearly said that one. I am so sorry. Give me a kiss. You

have been a joy. Thank you. I am so sorry. It's OK. That was a tough

break. Darling, two minutes ago, you were playing For 18-odd grand.

You are now playing for �27,500. That is what this last question to

you is worth. Are you ready? Yes. wish you the best of luck. Thank

Football! I know he is up there. He knows the answer. Right, I am

trying to think who... It could be any one of them. Steven Gerrard...

I'm trying to think if I have read anything. It is a wonderful

achievement, to make your 100th appearance for the England team.

Rio Ferdinand is jumping out, and I don't think why. Let's go Rio

Ferdinand. Would you like me to take Rio Ferdinand as the answer?

Yes. Was that a yes? Yes, please, Dale. Natalie, I accept Rio

Ferdinand as the answer. If you are right, the minimum you are leaving

here tonight with is a cheque for �27,500. If you are wrong, then

Shobha is playing for �55,000. Please tell me that Rio Ferdinand

celebrated his 100th appearance for England in November 2012. Steven

Gerrard. You were close. I said that. I am so sorry. Give me a kiss,

One question, worth �55,000. One question. Are you ready? No. Yes,

Dale. OK, for �55,000, please show Scotland... How many people are

there in Scotland? I don't think it is 5 million, Dale. 8 million is

jumping at me. I'm going to have to say 8 million. 8 million - am I to

take 8 million as your answer? Dale. Yes, OK. I have accepted 8

million, it is eliminated. -- illuminated. If that is right, at

least you're going home with some money tonight. For �55,000, please

tell me the Scottish population is 8 million. 5 million. And you ruled

that out straightaway. Shobha, I'm sorry, I have to say good night.

Nice to meet you. You, too, darling, I am so sorry. OK, well, what can I

tell you? It has been one of those nights tonight. It is so rare that

I look to my right and see a row of empty chairs. More importantly, no

money to give away. That means no- one goes home with the cash tonight.

But it doesn't mean you cannot have a big night, and I am talking about

a seriously big night. That means, oodles to be won by you. I hope

you're lucky, because it is time for tonight's Lotto draw from the

National Lottery. Best of luck, I can't believe it. I cannot

believe there are no winners tonight! What is going on? Well, I

tell you what, that is not going to be the case with the big Lotto draw,

which is just moments away. first we need to try and unite two

winners with their prizes. First up, a ticket that was bought for the

Lotto draw held three weeks ago, on Saturday 26th January There is a

prize of over �60,000 just waiting to be claimed! I mean, imagine what

you could do with that kind of extra cash sitting in your bank

account. The lucky ticket was bought in the Parliamentary

constituencies of Chippenham and North Wiltshire. But that is just

the warm-up, people - there is an unclaimed prize of over �3 million

from the Lotto draw two weeks ago from the Lotto draw two weeks ago

on Saturday 2nd February. And the rightful owner of that huge amount

of money purchased their ticket in the Tendring District area of Essex.

Are either of those locations ringing bells with you? Have you

passed through there? Do you have an aunty who buys her tickets there

and never remembers to check them? I'd be popping round for tea

tomorrow if I were you - perhaps she'll be in a sharing mood if you

find the missing ticket! To find out details of these and other

unclaimed prizes, go on line and follow the links. Right, it's time

for the big one, the star of the show. So, grab your tickets because

here comes tonight's live Lotto So Alan, what is in the jackpot

tonight? It's an impressive �3.9 million. That's a lot of cash, so

let's do this. Release those weekend balls. We're using Arthur,

with set of balls number six. In the last week, there have been over

754,000 winning tickets on Lotto, including Carmel McErlean from

County Antrim, who won over �169,000 on last Saturday's draw.

Huge congratulations to you. Thanks, Alan. Good luck, everybody. Here we

Alan. Good luck, everybody. Here we And the bonus tonight... So, this

weekend, the Millionaires' Row That's us done for the night.

Remember the Lotto, Thunderball and EuroMillions draws for the week can

now be viewed online on the day of the draw from 9.30pm. And the

results will also be broadcast on BBC One on Tuesday, Wednesday and

Friday at 10.35pm, straight after the 10 O'Clock News. If you've

played Lotto Plus 5 this week, get those tickets handy because Alan is

about to reveal the results. But first it's back over to Dale. See

you all soon - good night! Well, this is usually my favourite part

of the show, where I wander off and give out a few cheques for a lot of

money. But not tonight, because we have had no winners. But I hope you

have been a winner at home, and I hope you have enjoyed tonight's

episode of In It To Win It. Not the result we wanted, but we hope that

if you did enjoy it, you will come back again and see us again soon.
