Episode 9 The National Lottery: Secret Fortune

Two contestants will throw away 23 envelopes. �500! And will be left

with just one... He will secret fortune tonight is... Tonight,

Charlotte and David are trying to hold on to that �100,000 as they

Hello and welcome to The National Lottery: Secret Fortune, with your

Gosh! Thank you very much. Hello and welcome to Secret Fortune. We

have players facing 24 envelopes and what they are looking for is

the one containing their secret fortune. It could be anything from

�100 right up to �100,000! It is here and waiting to be won tonight

by Charlotte and David, from Yorkshire!

Lovely to see you. Welcome. Let's find out straight away, what is the

relationship between you two? father and daughter. You rang in

and said you wanted to come and play. Yes. And you thought, go with

dad? Yes. He has a lot of brains! But there must be a strong

relationship between the two. He is not just my dad. He has one

of my best friends. I am not shy to say that. We have lots of hobbies

and interests together. We both love music. One band being Queen.

Love them. Best band in the world! We like to do lots of covers.

you give us a quick burst? Unfortunately, I had tonsilitis not

long ago! A good thing to say on national television! It is a good

thing you're here tonight because you know you will be leaving with

some money, but you don't know how much. Your secret fortune is

sitting here in one of these envelopes. They contain between

�100 and �100,000. Let's take a look at the money. Now, if you

walked out of here with �20,000, �10,000 each, what does that do for

you? For me, again, because I love singing, I would love to have my

own recording equipment, and hopefully create some PA system so

I could go into pubs and clubs and sing. �50,000, David? Big change.

Me and my wife are both 50 in the same year. 30 years together. So

some partying to do! We would love to buy a motor home that you can

drive away, but we figure you could drive away for long periods. So I

fancy something like that. But there is a bigger goal with a

bigger figure, if you like. Linked to that. There is a bigger

figure, �100,000 up there. If you split that between you, where does

the money go? The big picture for me and my wife was, we didn't go to

university, so we never got a chance to have a year abroad. So we

figure, buy the motor home and go to Europe for a year and just tour

around. And that is our desire. What about you? Charlotte, what do

you do? That is a dream for me. I would love to run my own business

because my father does and I look up to him for that. I would love to

run a florist shop. So this could be life-changing. Absolutely.

envelopes contain one of these amounts at random. These are the

numbers arriving behind me. Let's put these away. The next time you

see one is when you bring it back into play. Most digital viewers can

play at home. Just press the Red Button. Good luck. The first thing

you are going to do is choose four envelopes. Fire away. Can I have

number seven, please? And 15. double the seven and go for 14 and

the top, 24. Remember, inside each envelope is one of those cash

amounts. Or you have to do is keep the MLA that contains the most

money. -- all you have to do is keep the envelope. The question

refers to new cars only. You have four a possible answers and they

I do not know what is in the four envelopes but the computer does and

it is allocating the one containing the most money to the biggest

selling car and the second largest amount is with the second biggest,

and so on. Which one would you like to lose first? Are I think what we

The money hatchback, I don't think we have seen that many are on the

road. -- the Mini. Massively popular. The Ford Fiesta... And not

everybody's cup of tea. None of them is desirably glamourous!

Apologies to anybody who has got one! Let's start with something

like the Vauxhall or the Ford. want to get rid of the Ford Fiesta?

Envelope number 15. Let's get started. Your secret fortune is

not... �30,000. Wow! Big one. Popular car. Not a big one. But

there it goes. To be honest, you might have chosen four envelopes

with a high around in. Has that affected the way you were thinking

on this question? No. I still think the Gulf. Would you say we agree on

getting rid of the Vauxhall? I am happy with that because they have

to go. A bloke number seven. -- envelope. Your secret fortune is

not... �4,000. I am drawn towards the Box Garden

because they are popular and you see a lot of them. -- the

Volkswagen Golf. Envelope number 14. Your secret fortune is not...

He so you are left with an envelope number 24. If it is the top answer,

what does that tell you about what is in this envelope? Is it tells us

a lot! Is as basic you got to be more than 30,000, hasn't it? -- it

has basically got to be. Was in the Volkswagen Golf? Wow! Yes. There

you go. Here is the order of the And then at number 24 could be your

secret fortune tonight. -- envelope. Let's choose four more and go to

question number two. A could we have a number one, No. 12. Could I

You would put your make-up on before you went on stage. Yes.

light the lights because otherwise you with fall on the stage. You

would raise the curtain, otherwise you would be Eric Morecambe! And

then you meet the Muppets last. I would say so. Can we please get

rid of meet the Muppets as a starter. The certainly can. Your

secret fortune is not... �22,000. Big ones. These are big. What is

interesting about that is that you could still be right. I say it

raised the curtain. Yes. We want to keep "put on make-up". So, raised

the curtain. Envelope number one. Your secret fortune is not...

He two left, one to keep and one to throw away. I honestly think but on

the make-up. I think so. We would like to get rid of a light the

lights. Lovely. Number 12. Your secret fortune is not... �25,000.

Wow! It one. Wow! That is really interesting, isn't it? What was the

most you threw away men? Twenty- five on that one. So, once again,

if you are right about "put on make-up" you know this envelope

will have a large amount of money. So, computer, was it number eight?

Wow. For you at home, here is the A you will find out what is in this

envelope before the end of the show. Envelope number eight could be your

secret fortune tonight. OK, let's pick four more numbers. I am going

to pick a number two. That is the date my nephew was born on. So

hopefully a bit of good luck. And 11. David? I think we will go with

Number 10, please. And up to 21. The thing about it, they are all...

You know, big names. Is there anything shouting at you? Well,

Nelson Mandela. For me personally, Bill Clinton should go. Would you

like to eliminate that one? Yes. sounds kind of weird saying that

out loud. I would like to eliminate Bill Clinton! Your secret fortune

is not... �100,000! There's other one's there. I'm afraid that cheque

for �100,000 has to go in the bin. Tough, that. But again, some other

big numbers there. What would you be happy to get rid of next?

think... Either Bill Gates or the Pope, because I still feel Mandela

is the strongest answer we have still got. We will go with the Pope

first. A man at Number 11. It is a tough one, this. Your secret

fortune is not... �20,000. Ooh! This is proving to be an expensive

round, isn't it? Yes. We have picked some big amounts there.

The question is, how big? I think my gut feeling... Stick to what we

said. He even though it is not the top answer, but feeling. We will

stick with Mandela being awarded it earlier. We will go with Bill Gates

as our next elimination, please. Hmm... Your secret fortune is not...

It was a lucky number in the end. It was. That's great because the

�100 disappears, and the minimum you could go home tonight with is

�500. All you're left now is Nelson Mandela. We know it's not the top

answer. It can't possibly be the top answer. Let's just get the

computer to confirm what the top answer was. It was, of course, Bill

Clinton. Here for you at home is the correct order of all four

answers, but no way of knowing whether that's the second top

answer, so it could be anywhere in between all the way down to the

�500. Definitely. Envelope ten could be your secret fortune

I think you two have done very well, actually, because that was a tough

old round. Let's just press on and choose four more envelopes and

choose another question. I'll have number three, please. Number three.

And number four. Number four. The computer is allocating the

envelope containing the most money to the fan of the most successful

team and so on through all four answers, so what do you make of

this? Football is a complete no-no for me. I have never, ever been

interested, unfortunately. I think what we've got to do here is

eliminate the ones that we think we're going to and hope we're

somewhere in the middle with the rest. I think Noel Gallagher being

a Mancunian, it's got to be City. That's a big team. Now it is. City

has been, you know, in the lower leagues for as long as I've - so

shall we go... Would you like to eliminate that one? Noel Gallagher

as a City supporter, please? Envelope three. Your secret fortune

�9,000. APPLAUSE

That's good. That's good. Four, 19 and 22 - you need to get rid of

another one. I like the thought process Alan Sugar would like a

small team because you kind of get that vibe from him. Is he an East

End boy? Would it be the Hammers? am trying to think. What's the

smaller London clubs. Eliminate things like Chelsea, Arsenal.

He's a QPR fan, isn't he? I don't know.

LAUGHTER Let's keep Sugar for a minute and

eliminate one of those. Piers Morgan, I - just because. We have

to get rid of two... So if we could get rid of him for the next one.

Getting rid of Piers Morgan, envelope 22. Your secret fortune

�75,000 CROWD: Ahh! Amazing. goodness. Right. Well, that's the

top answer. It is the top answer, and it's in the bin. It's in the

bin. OK. It's damage limitation now, so I think we need to just I think

go with Russell Brand on this one as our next elimination, please.

Russell Brand is going, envelope 19. I can tell you, he's a West Ham

supporter. Oh, is he? Your secret fortune tonight will not be: �8,000.

APPLAUSE Which leaves you with envelope

number four, and Alan Sugar. Remind us, computer, which was the top

answer. Piers Morgan, an Arsenal supporter. For you at home, here's

the correct order of all four answers. Yes, once again you have

an envelope which it's almost impossible to tell what's in it.

Yeah. But envelope four could be your secret fortune tonight. I

think, given the way this has gone, let's take a look at the money,

shall we, and see where we are. It's a kind of 50/50 board. You

have lost as many from the left as the right. The difficulty is you

have lost the 175 at the top but still in the middle is the 50 and

40,000. They're good sums of money. Let's clear that to the side and

have a look. I need four more envelopes, please. Number 16,

please. Number 16. And number nine, please. Number nine. Let's go for

17... Number 17. And 23, please. Computer, please allocate the

envelopes to the answers. What do you feel? Well, captain is still on

the ship, isn't he? A commander - not sure. Commodore, sounds like an

office job. LAUGHTER

Rear admiral... You have admiral, which is big. I originally went to

captain as the minimum. I think so as well. I think we should get rid

of that one. Eliminate captain as the first choice. I think so.

Envelope 17. Your secret fortune tonight will not be: �6,000.

That is better, isn't it? Yes. next? Rear admiral, we need to keep

that. Really? Yeah. I think you're right, because did word "admiral"

just dictates it's important. think we should get rid of

commodore. Yeah, commodore would be our next choice, please. Commodore.

Thank you very much. Your secret fortune tonight will not be:

�14,000. Right. APPLAUSE

That's fine. That's fine. Fine. Well, that seemed all right, didn't

it? You'd kind of reasoned your way to which one you were going to keep,

didn't you? Yeah, we did. Eliminate commander as our next option.

you very much. Envelope 23 has been eliminated and thrown in the bin.

Your secret fortune tonight will not be: � 500.

Very well done. Yeah. So the minimum you could go home with

tonight is �2,000. That's really good news, isn't it? Fantastic.

What was the most you threw away in that round? I think it was 14.

�14,000. So computer, which of Yes!

LAUGHTER For you at home, here's the correct

order of all four answer. As a result, you have the top answer

there, which means in this envelope is more than... 14, yeah.

Envelope 16 could be your secret There are only four envelopes left,

so let's bring them into play - Which of these legendary BBC TV

anchors read the news for the Computer, please allocate the

envelopes to the answers. What do you think? I don't recognise the

name Martin Lewis. Michael Buerk I recognise. Stuart I recognise from

Radio Two. Angela Rippon is one to keep. Really? I think so. I don't

think she has been in that role for a long time. I think she's

potentially one of the least. get rid of Angela. Let's get rid of

her simply because I can't remember her being on the news for many

years. Lovely, envelope five. Your secret fortune tonight will not be:

� 2,000. Good. APPLAUSE

Right. Where do we go now? Moira Stuart, Michael Buerk, two

favourites for us. I think we should eliminate Martyn Lewis

because we have no connection with him or no evidence, so we'd like to

get rid of him. Lovely. Thank you. Your secret fortune tonight will

not be: �10,000. APPLAUSE

That's all right. That's all right. I personally want to keep Michael,

but I - then we'd want to get rid of Moira. They're both big names,

and I think they've both done it for almost equal time, so it's a

50/50 flick. Can we eliminate Moira Stuart, please. Envelope six, Moira

Stuart. Thank you very much. Your secret fortune tonight will not be:

�18,000. APPLAUSE

That's all right. Good. Not bad. It's not wonderful, but it's not

the worst thing that could have happened there, and you're left

with envelope 18 and the answer Michael Buerk. Now, the other

interesting thing about this point is if you're right and you have the

top answer, this is worth more than �18,000, which means it must be one

of two amounts, yes? Let's find out. Computer, what was the top answer?

Ah, it was Moira Stuart. For you at home, here is the correct order for

all four answers. Out of a matter of interest, Moira Stuart read the

news for 26 years. Wow. Anyway, envelope 18 could be your

secret fortune tonight. Right. Now, then, when you started,

you had 24 envelopes. You now have six contains �5,000, �7,000,

�12,000, �16,000, �40,000 and still there in one of those envelopes is

�50,000. APPLAUSE

That's a good deal. Thank you. of those amounts will be your

secret fortune. You've picked your numbers, and we know that you've

picked your numbers at home. Grab your lottery tickets. It's time to

go over to lottery HQ for the Thunderball draw. See you in a

moment. APPLAUSE

Yes, 18 minutes to 9.00pm. Welcome to lottery HQ. Here is the stunning

Myleene Klass. You're stunning, Alan. What a tough game it has been

so far for Charlotte and David. I am just glad they have managed to

hold on to some big sums of money. Speaking of big money, we've got

your chance to win big at home. In a moment we'll have Thunderball. A

little later, we have the big Thunderball draw which tonight

boasts a double rollover jackpot, but first, voting is now over for

the finalists from this year's National Lottery Awards, the annual

search for the lottery's favourite funded projects. Over the coming

weeks we'll show you the finalists that need your vote. Anyone can

cast a vote. It's quick and easy. That's what you always say. We

showed you the Heritage finalists, and tonight is the health category,

which aims to promote our physical, mental and health well being. Here

When I was 12 years old, I was bullied at school. That's where it

all started from. I wanted to help young people who were both

vulnerable and abused, not only by bullies but also at home. Young

people realised bullying was a major issues, but what they were

more worried about was staying fit and healthy. The Be Healthy

programme is helpful because it takes them through a step process,

eating healthily, staying within a budget and how to tackle obesity

and exercise. I am now the lead Be Healthy trainer teaching other

young people, and I go out into youth clubs, communities. We go to

cafes as well. It feels great to see young people improving their

health. It's great that we have had the funding from the lottery to

fund this project. Looking at Lea and Luke and myself and how much

it's helped us and how much we've achieved because of this funding -

they helped me to build my life up and realise I can do something

different. It is changing the lives of young people, from it being one

young person to 1,500 every year A very nice. We will be showing you

the other two members of the category and telling you how you

can vote. Right now, it is time to find out if Lady Luck has voted for

you tonight. It is time for would. Said appals number two was

chosen at randomly with the machine Excalibur. -- set of balls. Good

luck to you all. Here we go. The first one, 28. We're onto a good

start. Next up... Which is it to be? The 39 balls to pick from in

this machine. Three opportunities each week to play the game.

Wednesdays, Fridays and of course, Saturdays. The last ball from this

first machine is next. OK, get that second machine moving now, Julie.

If you have matched with all v numbers so far, you are just one

number of way from winning Thunderball's top prize of half a

million pounds. There is also a cash prize for matching the

Thunderball on its own. Just one away! Watched closely! Here are

tonight's Thunderball numbers again in descending order. -- ascending

order. Thank you. That is it for the moment but we will be back very

soon with the lottery draw and a final two projects in this year's

National Lottery Awards, with details of how to vote. First, I am

going to check if Alan has some stunning shoes on! Back to Secret

Welcome back to Secret Fortune. Charlotte and David have envelopes

in front of them containing these De you have any idea where but the

money is? I have lost track. We are going to take those envelopes over

and give them a shuffle. You have worked really hard to keep these

envelopes in play but over the next five questions, you are going to

throw away five until you are left with the one which will be your

secret fortune. Let's see the question. Remember, from here on

incoming you can only throw away one envelope for each question, and

here are the answers. -- from here on in, you can only throw away. Six

islands and six amounts. The computer has given the lowest

amount of money to the smallest island. Give me the smallest island

and the amount of money goes in the bin. Give me the biggest and

�50,000 goes into the bin. What is it going to be? Cuba, quite a big

island. Madagascar sounds small. Yeah, I was drawn to Madagascar.

think Iceland, Ireland are pretty round. I think Madagascar could be

the one. If we talk ourselves out of it we are going to kick

ourselves. So, the answer is...? Madagascar. I had an inkling on

Number 10. Sir when I asked the computer, we don't want to see

16. I will reveal what is inside it and it goes in the bin. Your secret

fortune tonight will not be... �50,000. A oh! The art is amazing.

I am afraid that goes in the bin. Let's have a look at the correct

order and C why that is the case. Madagascar by far and away the

largest. The smallest watch for Lanka. It is done and gone, no

point in looking at it now. -- the smallest was re Lanka. -- Sri Lanka.

If hmm... I love Brian Reynolds. He did really well. Gemma Clarke said

to him, you are not only good- looking, but you are a good driver.

And I think Tom Cruise is out there as well. You think he did well? I

have think if we say Matt Le Blanc, that is in the middle. Which

envelope do you not want to see? 10! Oh, my God! Would you pass me

envelopeNumber 10, please? Your secret fortune tonight will not

be... �40,000. A oh, my God! Or what are we like?! I don't think I

have seen the top two amounts go in the first two questions. Let's look

at the order and C why that is the Let's take a look at the next

He did's think of the US Open. Golf is a very old game. -- let's think.

I think snooker is older than football as a world thing. I am

happy to go with snooker, if you want. I agree with you. I think

snooker is the one we are happiest with. Computer, please tell us

which envelopeis attached to the Your secret fortune tonight will

not be... �7,000. That's fine! That's fine! And nice to see one go

from the left-hand side of the screen. Let's have a look at the

order. The World Cup was the one you were looking for. You were

right to keep away from the other one. From the start, you have been

really positive. �16,000 means �8,000 each. He it would be

fantastic. It would allow us to do all sorts of things. Me and my wife

are both 50 next year, and war we used to do when the children were

younger was have extended holidays. -- what we used to do. A figure

like that would mean we could join the rest of the family and they

could join us if they wanted to and we could celebrate in style. That

sounds like a great thing to do with the money. Here's the next

I think Julie Andrews might be the first... She's a big name but she

came away from the limelight and went back in. Yes, she had that

throat problem. I don't recall Julie Andrews becoming a game. I do

recall Judi Dench. And Maggie Smith, I have no recollection at all. It

is in the memory bank. They don't go back that far! I am happy to go

with that. I think we are both agreeing we would like to go with

Dame Judi Dench. Computer, please tell us which envelope number is

attached to Dame Judi Dench. Envelope number 18. A bank you!

thank you. Your secret fortune tonight will not be... �16,000!

what does that tell you? Well, to be fair, it tells made the only way

you're taking that home is if you empty the bins! That was tough!

Let's look at the correct order. There it is at the top. She was the

one you were looking for. So we have two envelopes left. One will

be your secret fortune. Very soon, we will find out which one it is

going to be. But now we go over to Lottery HQ. Maybe you will be lucky.

I can't believe they have lost all that money. They could still enjoy

a great birthday bash with that 12 grand, though, so not too bad.

Here's hoping, and you at home could be enjoying some pretty big

celebrations with a win on tonight's double Lotto rollover

draw, just moments away. First, though, it's time to show you the

remaining two finalists short listed in the health category in

this year's National Lottery Awards. First up, it's Bionic Ear Show.

It's a show about how hearing works, so people can understand what they

need to do to protect it. It also gives an insight into what people

go through when something goes wrong with their hearing or their

hearing breaks down. Most people know they have an eardrum and canal,

but beyond that people are quite unknowledgeable, so we fill in that

gap. One of my sons has problems with his hearing, so it was quite

interesting to me to be able to sit and see what it was and where it

actually went because although the surgeon explained it's all a bit of

a whirlwind at the time, but I think actually, education for all

there - that wasn't just the children that were involved. All

the adults in the room were quite fascinated. Without this National

Lottery funding, we wouldn't be able to take this show across the

country. We as a team don't have a doubt that the show is really

changing people's lives. If we didn't have lottery funding,

there's 70-odd-thousand people out there who would not know how

important their hearing was. There would be people out there with ear

infections thinking it will just go away, not realising they're going

deaf by their own inaction and lack of knowledge, so we are making a

huge definitive difference the people's lives.

APPLAUSE Great work there. Now, we'll be

giving details of how to work for your favourite project after we

have shown you the final film, which is Bogside and Brandwell

Health Forum. When my dad retired at 65, I don't

know what to do with myself. Couch potato. He stayed home. He weighed

nearly 16 stone, suffered a bout of depression. I have a back problem

as well, so my mobility is kind of affected. I had a triple bypass

almost three years ago. I could hardly walk to the front door

without having to stop. I felt terrible. What am I going to do,

you know? What sort of outlook have I got? The centres engage older

people in physical activity. It's about coming along here. It's about

meeting different people and taking part in activity that you thought

that was past you by 20 or 30 years. If somebody had said to me six

months ago, you have a boat out there - I would say, no, not me.

It's somebody else. I would never do that. Exercise and health

programmes are worth their weight in gold in terms of the health

impact they can make on individuals no matter what their health

condition. It's done so much for me. The last time I was 12 stone was

when I got married. I am 64. I feel a bit 34. I have changeded my life.

I lost two-and-a-half stone. wasn't able to give up playing with

my grandchildren. I'll wait a wee bit longer to enjoy my life.

Looking good. There you have it. You have shown you all the projects

in the category of Health. It's up Next week we'll showcase the three

finalists for the sports category. But before you go anywhere, let's

bring you tonight's Lotto big jackpot tonight? Mighty Myleene,

tonight's rollover jackpot has been estimated at - get this - �11.3

million. I am getting it. Take it away. Release those balls, please.

We're using Guinevere and set of balls number seven. There were

still hundreds of thousands of Viners last time. Congratulations

if you were a lucky mid-week winner. Myleene. Julie, is Guinevere ready?

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds

from us here. Diane Borg is back Wednesday night with the midweek

draws. Matt Johnson is here Friday for a special Euro millions night

where the jackpot will be an estimated - get this - �80 million.

It's OJ Saturday on the weekend with the National Lottery Awards in

the sports category. That's at 8.05pm. Alan will bring you the

results of the Lotto rollover - he's getting ready - after Nick and

Secret Fortune. We'll see you after Welcome back to Secret Fortune

where Charlotte and David now just have two envelopes in front of them.

One contains �5,000. The other contains �12,000. Let's find out

what the deciding question is, You like your music? Yes. Yes.

Remember, the computer has allocated the song that has topped

the charts for the fewest weeks to the smallest amount of money. Give

me the correct answer, and I put the �5,000 in the bin. What do you

think? Yeah. I think Love is All Around was Wet, Wet Wet, was it?

think so. A UK band - Whitney Houston, I Will Always Love You. Am

I right there? Yeah. It's Body Guard, isn't it? A massive - I

don't know. Listen. If you are happy... I'm happy. Let's just go

with I Will Always Love You - because I will always love you,

whatever happens. AUDIENCE: Ahh. I think that's the

one we need to keep definitely. Love is All Around. Thank you,

Charlotte. Thank you, David. Love is All Around. OK. You have no idea

which way around the amounts are in the envelopes. Computer will, you

please tell us which envelope is attached to the answer Love Is All

Around - envelope four. Four. That's the last envelope you will

throw away tonight, which means that envelope eight is your secret

fortune. Would you like to pick it up and come with me? Oh. Oh. Yeah.

Smashing. Now, envelope four is at this stage redundant and of no

interest because what we're all really interested in is how much

you're taking home. Yeah. I hope this is the �12,000 because that's

one of the worst runs I have seen of luck in a final so far. Your

�5,000. Ahh. Never mind. Let's have a look inside here -

inside every envelope is a cheque and has been with your names on, so

here is a cheque made out to the two of you for �5,000. Who would

like that? Charlotte can. You can take that. You hang on to the

envelope. There are a couple of things we need to clear up, OK? So

the difference between Love is All Around and Wet Wet Wet and Whitney

Houston's I Will Always Love You - five weeks to difference. It was a

tough one. They were both at number one for a long time. The other

thing is all envelopes we open during the course of the show, so

here, of course, is the �12,000. Have you enjoyed yourselves at

least? Absolutely brilliant. It has been brilliant, the whole

experience - meeting everybody - it has been fabulous. Well, that is

�5,000 of real money which is yours and you're taking away. Ladies and
