Episode 11 Think Tank

Meet our Think Tank. They've answered hundreds of general knowledge questions

before the show. Their answers are in,

but how helpful will they be to the three contestants?

Playing the game are Amelia,

a manager for an arts development organisation from Newcastle.

Wilson, a self-employed window cleaner from Hamilton.

And Catherine, an asbestos contract officer from Doncaster.

This is Think Tank.

Welcome to the show, welcome, as ever, to our Think Tank.

-How are we, guys?

-Good!

Marvellous. In the pack we have a professional ice hockey player,

a male model, a self-confessed adrenaline junkie

and someone who's lived in Canada and Holland.

And that's just Tristan!

LAUGHTER

He can do the whole show on his own.

The Think Tank are here to help our three contestants during the show

as they battle it out to win a cash prize.

So welcome to you all.

Amelia, you're a manager with an arts development organisation.

So theatre, literature, cinema, all comes naturally to you, does it?

Hopefully. But if there's

any questions on those, I hope it goes my way.

Otherwise it's going to be pretty embarrassing!

Musically though, do you play any musical instruments?

I've just started learning the steel pan, which is fantastic.

A really great instrument to learn in a group.

And it's not a very steep learning curve,

you can start playing a song after about an hour.

The steel pan is like the steel drum?

-It's the same thing, yeah.

-Not the saucepan, the steel pan.

-No.

Excellent.

-So what are you good at?

-I'm hoping there's going to be some questions

on geography and movies. Some modern pop culture.

OK, fair range then. And, Wilson, welcome.

you have a window cleaning business?

Yes, I do, in Hamilton, Lanarkshire, yes.

-Still climbing ladders yourself?

-No, no - long gone, are those days.

I've got young legs and young bodies to do that for me.

It's the best way to do it, you stand at the bottom and tell them

-to get on with it.

-Yes, exactly.

Hamilton, of course, home to the Academicals.

The Academicals, yes. Affectionately known as the Accies.

Man and boy, since I was seven years old, I've supported them.

What do you think your strongest subjects are?

Definitely '60s pop music.

I'm a great fan of the Beatles, saw them twice.

Didn't hear them, but I saw them twice!

You know, when there's all those girls screaming.

Yeah. What are you not so good at then?

-Politics.

-Politics. Jackie, you can help with the politics, can't you?

-Yeah, quite interested in politics.

-Good girl.

-Some things I know.

OK, maybe you two can work together on that.

-You bet.

-Catherine, welcome to the programme,

you're an asbestos contract officer.

What's that involve?

I remove any asbestos for any building works that need to be done.

-Special interest?

-I did a course in millinery.

There's nothing quite as scary

as fitting a hat for the mother of the bride.

Oh! And speaking of scary things, you have another interest?

I do, yeah. I have a bit of an obsession with zombies.

Well, I wonder if you'll be able to spot any of them here?

LAUGHTER OK. Welcome to all three of you.

Over three rounds, our contestants will try to tap into the knowledge

of the Think Tank to build up as much money as possible.

The two high scorers go through to the final.

Ultimately though, just one will walk away with the cash prize.

So let's play the first round.

In this round I'm going to ask you a question,

and then every member of the Think Tank will reveal their answer

that they gave before the show.

The correct answer's going to be in there somewhere.

But there could be any number of mistakes in the mix too.

So pick out the correct answer, £200 goes into your cash prize fund.

You get two questions each.

Amelia, you're up first.

So here's a question we asked the Think Tank.

Take a moment to think about it while we look at the answers

the Think Tank gave. Kicking off with Anisha.

Caitlyn Jenner.

Angelina Jolie.

Hillary Clinton.

Angelina Jolie.

Angela Merkel.

Angela Merkel.

Angela Merkel.

Angelina Jolie.

So, Angela Merkel or Angelina Jolie?

One or two others. Caitlyn Jenner and Hillary Clinton -

-got any thoughts?

-Some might say they're all worthy winners.

Angelina Jolie last year was quite high profile

with her UN ambassador role,

and highlighting various female cancer issues.

However, some of the Think Tankers have chosen political figures,

so it's a tough one.

I'm going to go with Angelina Jolie as a guess.

OK. Which woman was named

Time Magazine's Person of the Year in 2015,

you're going to guess with Angelina Jolie, let's see if you're right.

Angela Merkel, it was in fact.

So no money for you that time,

but there will be many more chances to get ahead.

Wilson, you've see how it works. Let's see your question.

You're a music fan,

you might be across this. Let's see what the Think Tank thought.

Anisha?

Bono.

Bob Geldof.

Midge Ure.

John Laing.

Bob Geldof.

Paul Young.

Bono.

Bob Geldof.

Bob Geldof's the most popular choice there, Wilson - do you remember it?

I do, I do indeed.

And the harrowing pictures of why they were doing this.

I'm going to take a stab here and go for Bono.

-You're going to go for Bono?

-Yeah.

OK, let's see if you're right.

Who sang the opening line of the original Band Aid single?

And the answer is...

THINK TANKERS: Ahhh.

Paul Young, it was indeed.

-Can you remember how it goes?

-Yes.

# It's Christmas time

-MEN:

-# And there's no need to be afraid...

-#

That's why they got Paul Young to sing it.

OK. I'm just intrigued. John Laing?

I didn't know the answer to that. I just took a wild guess.

-Do you know any singers called John Laing?

-No, I don't.

OK, just a wild guess.

That's OK. So no money for you either, Wilson, but lots of time.

OK, Catherine, let's see your question.

Have a think, and let's consult the Think Tank.

Amnesia.

Association.

Arts.

Arts.

Athletics.

Athletics.

Arts.

Arts.

So, lots of votes for arts. Does that sway you at all?

I was already thinking mixed martial arts

before the Think Tankers gave their answer.

And obviously Tristan's a sportsman,

so I am going to go with Arts.

That's a canny observation there.

What does the A stand for in the sporting abbreviation MMA?

Catherine says Arts. Is she right?

Yes, she is. Well done indeed.

Yay!

It is indeed, mixed martial arts.

So well done. £200 goes into your prize fund for that correct answer.

All right, coming back to Amelia,

let's have a look at your second question.

You're looking like you know what it's going to be.

Let's just consult the Think Tank for a second, shall we?

Ford.

DeLorean.

DeLorean.

Chrysler.

Ford.

DeLorean.

DeLorean.

Ford.

So you've got at least half the Think Tank going for DeLorean.

Three Fords and a Chrysler.

-What do you reckon?

-As much as I'd like to see the film

where he flies back to the future in a Ford,

I'm going with the DeLorean!

It's a very special car.

Lovely doors, yes.

Lovely doors, OK,

let's see if your lovely doors are going to get you £200?

In the Back To The Future films,

Marty McFly travels in time in what make of car?

It's a DeLorean.

Well done. That gets you up and running, Amelia.

So, Wilson, your second question.

OK.

Might give you PAWS for thought!

Paws.

Think Tank?

Bear.

Beaver.

Bear.

Bear.

Porcupine.

Bear.

Beaver.

It was a horse.

Four bears, two beavers, a porcupine and a horse.

You've got a veritable zoo to choose from there.

I lived in Toronto, Canada. So slight advantage here.

If I get it wrong,

I've got two sisters out there who will disown me!

-OK.

-So, with that in mind, it's that little beaver.

What animal, with the Latin name Castor,

is the national animal of Canada?

Wilson's saying it's the beaver with a certain confidence.

Is he right?

He is indeed, Beaver is the correct answer.

Thank you. Thank you.

Tristan, you spent a fair amount of time in Canada, haven't you?

Yes, a lot of time.

What happened there?

I played ice hockey across there, lived in Nova Scotia, Alberta, BC,

mainly just playing ice hockey all over.

You never came across the national animal?

I thought it was a bear, I've been camping too much in the wild,

I'm too familiar with bears.

All right. So there you are.

Wilson, you have £200 pounds for your prize fund.

We move on to Catherine for your second question.

Have a think about that while we see what the Think Tank said.

Orthodontist.

Dentist.

Policeman.

Artist.

Spy.

Spy.

Spy.

Detective.

Some interesting answers there to choose from.

George Smiley, does he ring any bells?

No, he doesn't ring any bells.

But I think I'm going to go with spy.

I think it's probably an older character,

and I think that Len would know the answer.

Ah. What is the profession of

the literary character George Smiley?

Catherine's going with Len and a couple of you with spy.

Let's see she's right.

She is indeed, spy.

The lead character in Jon Le Carre's novel Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.

And Smiley's People, of course. So, well done.

Couple of interesting answers there from the Tank.

-Anisha, orthodontist?

-Yeah. Definitely makes sense, right?

Smiley, teeth, orthodontist - duh!

Yeah, absolutely.

OK, well done, Catherine. That's £200 for your prize fund.

At the end of the first round,

let's take a look at how people are getting on currently.

Amelia and Wilson are tied on £200, but in the lead is Catherine,

with £400.

That could all change, of course, in our next round.

Every member of the Think Tank is holding two questions

which they answered correctly before the show.

So you'll take it in turns to pick someone from the Think Tank

whose knowledge you think you can match.

For every correct answer, another £200 is added to your prize fund.

Once a Think Tanker has asked both their questions,

they can't be picked again. OK?

Amelia, you get to go first.

You've got the entire crew to choose from.

So whose knowledge do you think you can match?

I think Len and I have answered a few questions correctly,

-so I'm going to choose Len.

-I've seen this guy in Hollywood,

tremendous show it was.

Here's my question...

Which hit single by Barry Manilow shares its name

with a Brazilian beach and a New York nightclub?

I think - and this will be my mother's musical taste -

it's Copacabana?

OK, you're saying Copacabana.

-Is she right?

-It is Copacabana.

Well done.

£200, Amelia, well done.

Wilson, then. Who do you want to choose?

She's giving me a wry smile,

and she's twinkling her eyea now!

-Diane.

-Are you going to do him a favour

by asking him a question he can answer?

He's definitely going to answer this.

So, if it was Scottish football, you'd have the answer, doubtless?

A very well-spoken chap, now commentating.

I'm going for Thierry Henry.

He knows his football north of the border, does he know it in London?

-What's the answer?

-He's correct.

-Thierry Henry, well done.

-Thank you.

-Thanks for that.

-So, Thierry Henry, scored 175 goals in total.

Yes. Not in one game, by the way.

Not in one game, no!

Well done, Wilson, that's £200 added to your running total.

Catherine, you are up next. Still got the full Tank to ask.

I think I'll go for Peter.

It's my father's name, so I'm hoping a bit of family luck.

This is a films question.

-Have you seen Frozen?

-I have, yes.

I think Sven is the reindeer.

Sven, you think, is a reindeer.

Is she right, Peter?

She is correct, he's a reindeer!

Well done to you, that's £200 added to your running total.

So you're doing very well in this round so far.

Amelia, let's get your second question.

You can ask anyone you like from the Think Tank.

I think Max also got the DeLorean question right,

-so I'm going to go with Max.

-Ah, very good.

Well, it's another American culture question.

And I know this, because I travelled through Texas,

and it is a great place. So...

The Alamo, in Texas, fell to the army of which country?

I'm going to guess, because it's next door, and say Mexico.

So you're going to go with Mexico?

-Yeah?

-Well, is she right?

Well, it is a next-door country, and it's not Canada, so it is Mexico.

Well done.

Good, calculated guess.

And you get to add another £200 to your total.

So, Wilson, your second question - who do you want to choose?

Such an unusual name, Arminel.

-Ah!

-And you look a little bit lonely back there, so...

He's asking you out of the kindness of his heart!

Len, behave!

-Right then.

-So, I'm all yours.

So it's a dating question.

I met my husband through the back pages of Time Out.

I answered his ad, which said,

"Man on shelf seeks nice women to dust him off and see

"if he's the type of bric-a-brac she'd like to have around."

And I just thought it was great. And it is...

What does the H stand for in GSOH, Wilson?

Well, if ever lose my sense of this,

it's going to be a loss to the world.

-A sense of humour.

-Is he having a laugh?

If he was, he would be completely correct, it stands for humour.

Well done.

GSOH stands for "good sense of humour".

So, well done, Wilson, that's £200 in your prize fund.

That brings us on to Catherine for your second question.

I think you can still ask the full range of encyclopaedic wisdom

that we have on show here.

I think I'll go with Tristan this time

and hope it's not a sport question.

So please be kind.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, it's a sport question.

If you know ice hockey, you would know this 100%.

So here we go.

Who was The Great One in Canadian ice hockey?

Have you been to an ice hockey game?

No. Not at all, even though the Steelers are quite close.

Not been to see them, and I couldn't even hazard a guess

at the name of a Canadian ice hockey player.

-Not one?

-Not one!

Rather than say nothing at all, there's a million-to-one chance

you might get it right, just pick two names.

Pick a first name, pick a last name, and you never know.

Peter Steele?

Sounds good to me! It's a good name for an ice hockey player, isn't it?

Was he known as The Great one?

It is a great name, unfortunately, the name is Wayne Gretzky.

Wayne Gretzky was the answer.

And he's the leading scorer in NHL history.

Do you know how many goals he scored?

-It's over 500.

-More than 500 goals.

-He really was a great one.

-Yeah.

Sadly, though, that means you stay on your current total.

So, back to you, Amelia,

for your third and final question in this round.

I'm going to go back to Tristan, I think,

in the hope it's not another sport question.

-All right.

-It's a movie question.

We like our movies.

Ben Stiller as the gym owner White Goodman in which film?

I think -

and I only think I know this because I used to be an instructor for it -

and it's Dodgeball?

-Dodgeball, you were...?

-Yeah, the five Ds of dodgeball, yeah!

Dodgeball is your answer.

Is she on target there?

Yep, atta girl, way to go.

-Dodgeball, well done.

-Thank you.

£200 goes into your kitty

and we move on to Wilson for your third question.

Tristan, though, you cannot ask.

I think, this time around - and I'm looking straight at you, Len,

we share the same hairstyle, almost!

Glasses and...

I like your shirt too.

This is one of my favourite TV programmes, Blackadder II.

Oh.

Lord Flashheart in Blackadder II? Who was that?

I've watched them all.

All the series, but it's been so long.

Ade Edmondson?

Ade Edmondson? Is he right?

I'm sorry, Rik Mayall.

-Rik Mayall!

-It was Rik Mayall, the late Rik Mayall, of course.

-He and Ade Edmondson worked together, actually.

-Correct.

Quite a lot, but sadly, that was not the right role.

No more goes into your prize fund.

I don't like your shirt now!

LAUGHTER We move on to... No points for that then!

We move on to Catherine. Catherine, we come to your last question.

And you can't ask Len any more, and you can't ask Tristan.

I'm going to go with Jackie. Nobody's asked you yet.

So we'll see what questions come up.

I was glad that I got this question.

Have you seen Coronation Street much?

-No.

-Have you seen Happy Valley?

-No.

-OK!

-Oh, dear!

-I can feel another Wayne Gretzky moment coming on here!

So what are you going to do?

The only person I can think of is probably from EastEnders,

so I'm going to go with Martine McCutcheon.

Martine McCutcheon, is what you're saying.

What former Coronation Street actress played Catherine Cawood

in the TV drama Happy Valley?

-Was at Martine McCutcheon?

-It wasn't, it was Sarah Lancashire.

Sarah Lancashire, it was indeed.

Sarah Lancashire, of course, played Raquel

in Corrie from 1991-1996.

I'm afraid you don't get to add anything to your total either.

So at the end of the second round,

let's look and see how your prize funds have changed.

Wilson and Catherine, you both have £600 in your kitty.

But, currently, Amelia is ahead with £800, so well done.

APPLAUSE

So, contestants, one of you is going to have to leave shortly,

but there is one last chance for you

to take the lead if you're running behind.

All of you are going to be asked the same question.

Two members of the Think Tank will then tell you the answers they gave

before the show, which they believe to be correct.

Only one of them is going to be right though.

So if you side with the correct person,

you'll get an all-important £200 to add to your kitty.

Just five questions remain, though,

before we do have say goodbye to one of you.

So do choose your answers carefully.

So first we're going to hear answers from Peter and Diane.

So, Peter, what do you reckon?

-Mosquito.

-You love these hand gestures, don't you?

I do!

So you're saying mosquito. Diane?

-I believe it's a rat.

-A rat.

There's probably more rats than humans in the world,

responsible for the bubonic plague, killed a lot of people there.

And they do say you're never more than, what...? Ten...

Never more... Yeah, about ten feet from a rat, which is probably...

-Look, look!

-Stop it!

OK. So your choices are rat or mosquito.

Lock in your answers, please.

So, Amelia and Wilson have gone for mosquito, and Catherine too.

You've all gone for the same answer.

Let's see if you're right.

-Mosquito. Well done.

-Oh.

-Well done.

-APPLAUSE

Well done to Peter. Fantastic impression.

So you all get £200 added to your prize fund.

And we move on to our next answers, this time from Len and Anisha.

Here's the question.

Len, what's your answer?

-The Super Bowl.

-The Super Bowl, OK.

-Anisha?

-I said the Rugby Union World Cup.

All right, then. So you have the Rugby Union World Cup

or the Super Bowl -

which was the most watched by UK TV viewers?

Please lock in your answers.

So we've got Amelia and Wilson with Rugby Union World Cup,

Catherine's gone for the Super Bowl.

Who's going to be right? Let's see.

It's the Rugby Union World Cup. Well done indeed.

APPLAUSE

More than ten million people watched the opening ceremony, of course.

-Yes.

-So, Anisha, well done. I'm surprised, Len.

-There's a lot of Americans love it, don't they?

-Not ten million of them.

-LAUGHTER

-We're getting close, we're getting close!

Good effort anyway. And that means Amelia and Wilson,

you add £200 to your prize fund.

Next up then, we come to Think Tankers Max and Arminel.

Here is your question.

That's a lot of countries to choose from, isn't it, Max?

Well, Bill, I went straight for Germany.

I mean, We know all about Oktoberfest, obviously

and the last time I went to Berlin,

I left with a pretty apocalyptic hangover,

so I feel I contributed to that statistic.

Was that in 2014, when you went?

Absolutely it was! There we go.

Well, that would be part of it then, possibly. Arminel?

Well, I think it's the Czech Republic,

because my father's Austrian,

but I had a Czech maiden name because

of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

So my maiden name was Sebesta, which is a Czech name.

My ancestors came from Ceske Budejovice,

which was known as Budweis - Budweiser.

Pilsen, that's also in the Czech Republic.

So as far as I'm concerned, it's a no-brainer, it's the Czech Republic.

OK. So it's either Germany,

because Max got an almighty hangover there...

or it's the Czech Republic

because Arminel has her roots in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

A difficult choice, but, contestants,

please lock in your answers.

So, Amelia's gone for the Czech Republic.

Wilson and Catherine going for Germany.

Let's see who's right.

It's the Czech Republic.

Amelia, well done.

Budweis and Pilsen.

Delicious beers all round.

The Czechs drink more then 143 litres per person per year.

That's more than Max could manage in a month of Oktoberfests!

-You need to go to Prague, Max. That's your next place.

-Absolutely.

Well, well done, Arminel.

Amelia, you get £200 more in your prize fund.

We've got two more questions for you.

Let's get answers from Jackie and Dianne.

Here is your question.

Jackie, you a big EastEnders fan?

No, I don't watch it. But if I think that EastEnders -

and I did watch it in the beginning - I think EastEnders,

the person I always think about is Dot Cotton.

-OK.

-Dot Cotton's iconic, I think, for EastEnders,

-So Dot Cotton.

-Well, she's been on the programme for a long time,

as have a lot of characters though, Diane.

That's right. Well, I believe it's Phil Mitchell.

He was there at the very beginning,

he's ruined so many people's lives,

doing these things, coming back.

And I believe that it's Phil.

So your choice is Phil Mitchell or Dot Cotton.

Contestants, please lock in your answers.

So all three of you have gone with Dot Cotton.

Phil Mitchell not getting a look in.

Let's see if you're right.

And you're not, it's Phil Mitchell.

-Yay!

-Sorry!

-Phil Mitchell.

Phil Mitchell's character, more than 2,600 episodes.

Yeah, he's always there.

He's always there, causing trouble.

-There you go.

-Yeah.

-Well done, Diane.

-Thank you.

-So none of you got that right,

so no money added to your prize funds.

For our final question this round,

we're going to your answers from Anisha and Tristan.

And here is the last question.

-Anisha?

-OK, I went for William Shakespeare,

because it sounds like Old English,

and he was around a long time ago when Old English was new English,

but it's now old, because it was a long time ago.

So William Shakespeare is who I went for.

Tristan?

I'm going to go for a famous poet, a Scottish poet, Robert Burns.

And I think it's the correct answer.

OK. So it's either Old English with Shakespeare,

or something old Scottish with Robert Burns.

Contestants, please lock in your answers.

And all three of you have gone with Robert Burns.

So very confident there.

Let's see if you're right.

-You are indeed.

-Yes!

Whoo!

Tristan, well done with that answer.

-Thank you.

-Do you know the words? How does it go?

Oh...

Help me out!

-OTHERS:

-# Should old acquaintance be forgot

# And never brought to mind...#

And he's run out!

Look at them over there!

# Should old acquaintance be forgot

# For the sake of Auld Lang Syne? #

Well done. Well done, Tristan.

-Thank you.

-So you all get £200 to your prize funds.

So well done on that correct answer.

So, contestants, you've run out of time now to boost your prize funds.

Let's take a look at your totals.

In the lead, Amelia with £1,600,

followed by Wilson, with £1,200,

and, with just £1,000, in third place, it's Catherine.

So with the lowest sum in your kitty, I'm afraid,

Catherine, we have to say goodbye to you.

Thank you very much for playing. Have you enjoyed it?

-I have, yeah. Been very good.

-Good.

Enjoyed meeting the Think Tank.

-And I'm sure they've enjoyed meeting you too.

-Yes, we have.

Amelia and Wilson, well done.

You will now compete against each other to take the money

that you've earned in the final.

Amelia, if you win, then, how are you going to spend the cash?

Well, I've always wanted to go on a Wild West cowboy holiday in Colorado.

So if I won the money, it would go towards paying for that.

Sounds very exciting. You got to travel plans in mind, Wilson?

I've got a hankering to go to Vietnam, Japan, Far-Eastern countries.

Then I have a niece Australia who is doing very well,

and I haven't seen her in ten years. Love to go.

All right. Well, good luck to both of you,

our final is a general knowledge battle.

I'm going to ask you five questions each,

and whoever gives the most correct answers

then takes home the money that they've built up so far.

Fortunately, the Think Tank is still here to help you out.

You can pick somebody to consult with

before you answer the questions.

Each member can only be picked once. The difference in the final,

compared to the rest of the show, though,

is that they haven't seen any of these questions before.

So they are just as much in the dark as you are.

OK? Amelia, you've built up most money in the main game,

so the final starts with you, OK?

Here is your first question.

Who do you want to help you out here?

She's really great with soaps,

so I'm going to choose the lovely Diane, please.

She did well with Phil Mitchell, earlier, of course, didn't she?

OK. Have you got any ideas, any thoughts?

I felt the spin-off, Holby City,

might have been a clue to it being in the city of Holby.

-Holby.

-Holby?

-Yeah.

-Holby.

-Holby city.

-You're very clear about that.

-We've got a connection.

-OK.

TV series Casualty is set in which fictional city?

You're saying Holby. Let's see if you're right?

Holby it is indeed. Well done.

APPLAUSE

So, Amelia, you have one answer down.

Wilson, your question.

I get the sense modern pop not necessarily your thing,

so you're going to have to get some help here?

Definitely not my forte here.

-Who do you want?

-Anisha, help me here.

Good choice, because I know it.

Because she's the queen, and it's Beyonce.

Like, you don't even need to deliberate, it's Beyonce.

Just say it.

-THEY LAUGH

-It's Beyonce.

I get the sense you're going to be trouble

if you don't go with Beyonce here.

I'll take a stab in the dark. Is it Beyonce?

All right. Beyonce is the answer you're giving to the question

about which pop star gave birth to a baby girl named Blue Ivy in 2012.

Have you got it right?

You have indeed. Beyonce.

Well done, Anisha.

So, you're level.

1-1. Amelia, here's your second question.

Of course, you can no longer ask Diane or Anisha.

Who do you think can help you with this?

Got a good idea,

but just to confirm it, I'm going to go with Arminel.

-Arminel?

-Ah-ha, Well, I have a good idea as well,

so let's hope they're the same!

-Yes.

-I think that it's the ravens, do we agree?

We do indeed, yes.

Thank goodness for that, no conflict.

OK. So, 100% confidence from both of you - the ravens.

The kingdom will fall if they leave the Tower of London.

That's what you're saying. Are you right?

You are indeed, it's the ravens. APPLAUSE

2-1 to Amelia. Your chance to equalise here, Wilson.

-Here we go.

-Here's your second question.

If you need some support, who are you going to choose?

Well, I know the answer,

but just to bring you into the game, Max.

Which would that be, I wonder?

-Happy Days.

-Happy Days!

-Are here again.

-Absolutely.

I think we should go with Happy Days.

Happy Days is what you are going for The Fonz's TV sitcom.

Are you right?

-Happy Days it is.

-Good.

We've just got time for you to do your Fonz impression.

Eyyyy!

Eyyyy!

So, 2-2. Still very tight here.

Amelia, your third question...

Peter, Jackie, Tristan or Len to choose from?

I'm going to go with...Len,

hoping he's done a little bit of travelling.

Have you been to this place, Len?

Well, I've been to Las Vegas,

I've been to New York,

-I've never been to Fort Lauderdale.

-Oh!

I'm struggling with this now.

-I've got an inkling...

-What is it?

-..it's in Florida.

-Florida...

-But I'm not 100% sure.

If I was sitting up there, I'd take a stab at that as a best guess.

-Best guess, OK.

-Yeah.

-So, you're going to say

Fort Lauderdale is in Florida?

-Yes.

-OK, let's have a look and see if you're right.

This to take the lead.

You are indeed, well done.

Yeah, in the Sunshine State.

So, 3-2 to you, Amelia, well done.

Wilson, here's your third question.

Peter, Tristan or Jackie to choose from.

Let's go with...

Peter.

-I reckon somewhere hilly, so...

-LAUGHTER

What could have hills in Europe, really?

Looking for a country in Europe with hills, Peter thinks.

No, no, no, I'll take a stab and say Australian.

-Take a stab at Australia with Chris Froome?

-Yeah.

OK. The country of his birth, you say, is Australia.

Are you right?

It's Kenya. THINK TANKERS EXCLAIM

I'm afraid it's Kenya.

So, Amelia, you have the lead, just. Going to your fourth question now.

Jackie or Tristan?

Tristan's young and well-dressed.

Jackie is...also well-dressed. LAUGHTER

She's gorgeous!

And may I say, looking lovely.

Don't backtrack!

-It's too late now?!

-Yeah!

He mentioned he was a male model,

so I'm hoping he keeps his toe in the industry

and I'm going to go with Tristan.

I'm thinking David Gandy, he's the first guy that comes to mind.

He's been in a few movies and he's also a top male model.

David Gandy's my guess.

I was thinking about the guy who won the Oscar

for playing Stephen Hawking,

but I've forgotten his name! I can't remember!

I can't remember his name, sorry.

I have to go with David Gandy, I can't remember his name.

You're going with David Gandy, Tristan's choice.

OK, let's see if your faith is to be rewarded.

Sadly, not. It's Eddie Redmayne.

It's just who you thought it was, of course.

-Yep.

-You just couldn't put a name to the face.

-Nope.

So, still 3-2. Your chance, Wilson, to pull level

with your fourth question.

Just Jackie to ask now.

There were people around then like Lisa Stansfield who were big then,

around that time.

-Annie Lennox!

-Lisa Stansfield, Annie Lennox,

any more to add to the possibles, Wilson, for you?

We'll stick with the Scots and we'll go Annie Lennox.

-Stick with the Scots, Annie Lennox?

-Yeah.

-OK,

Annie Lennox, then, is your answer

for the first British solo female artist

to have a number-one album in the UK.

Are you right?

It's Kate Bush. Of course, it's Kate Bush.

So, the score still 3-2, and, Amelia, if you get this one right,

you will be the winner.

OK, this is your fifth question, no Think Tankers left to help you out,

so you're on your own.

Here we go...

Just going to have out to work this one out on your own.

I know Greenland's quite big and people usually forget that one.

-Mm-hm.

-Em...

Then I'm wondering Canada, I am looking at Tristan.

He can't help you.

China? I might go with China...

-Going to go China?

-I'm going to guess with China.

Are you absolutely sure? If you're right, of course, then you've won.

If you're not right, if you're wrong,

then Wilson gets a chance to equalise.

You're saying China is the country

that has the longest coastline in the world,

let's see if you have the correct answer.

It's Canada! THINK TANKERS GROAN

You had it on your list. You had it on your list.

-Never mind.

-That lets you back in, Wilson.

I wish I had got that question.

-You'd have got that right?

-Knew that one, yes.

-OK, but we've got a different question for you!

-Correct.

This to draw level...

-You need to get this right.

-I realise that, yes.

If you don't, then Amelia wins automatically.

If only you had Arminel to help you, because she's massive on Eurovision.

-It's true, I am!

-But her lips are sealed,

there's nothing she can do for you.

-The UK.

-The United Kingdom, you say,

won the Eurovision Song Contest in the '60s, '70s, '80s and '90s?

OK, let's see if you've got the equaliser.

You have indeed. Well done! THINK TANKERS APPLAUD

So, well done, well remembered, Wilson.

So after five questions each,

your scores are tied and we're going to go to sudden death.

All members of our Think Tank have been used up,

so you are still on your own until we find a winner.

So, Amelia,

here's your next question.

It's either one of two,

cos the one it was launched in and the one it was built in

and it's Dublin or Liverpool.

The museum's in Dublin, I think, or Belfast?

It's got Liverpool on it.

I'm going to say Liverpool.

You're going for Liverpool. The Titanic, built in which city?

Amelia, you say it's Liverpool.

Let's see what the right answer is.

It's Belfast. You mentioned the museum being in Belfast,

that was the clue.

So I am afraid you've got the wrong answer there, Amelia.

Wilson, this means if you get this next question correct,

you'll have won. Here we go.

-You any good on golf?

-Fabulous!

Sorry, Amelia.

-Augusta.

-You're saying it's played in the state of Augusta?

-Correct.

-US Masters golf tournament, played every year in which state?

You're saying it's Augusta.

If you get this right, you will be today's winner.

-It is Georgia!

-Georgia!

Augusta, Georgia.

Georgia. Augusta's not a state.

That's like a two-foot putt you've just missed!

Bring it back. Oh, dear, you had the answer in your head,

-but the wrong one popped out.

-Yeah.

-Oh, dear!

So you two are still neck and neck.

Amelia, here's your next question.

-I've no idea.

-Not good on history?

No.

I'm going to try, as a guess, John?

You're going to go for John. Guy Fawkes famously attempted

to blow up a king with which first name?

Amelia, you're saying it's John.

Let's see if you're right.

James is the answer!

-Charles, I'd have gone for.

-Yeah, James.

So, Wilson, you have the chance

to take the lead and, in fact,

take today's prize if you can just get this right.

Are you a wine drinker?

-Yes.

-OK.

-Bordeaux?

-You're saying it's Bordeaux.

-Bordeaux.

-You're saying claret comes from Bordeaux.

The word claret referring to wine from which French region?

You say Bordeaux. If this is right, you will be today's winner.

Let's see.

Bordeaux is the right answer!

Drinks on everybody!

So, cheers!

-Cheers, yes, to everybody.

-Well done, Wilson, you're our winner.

Commiserations to Amelia, very well fought, so close.

Thank you! Thank you, Think Tank!

You're not taking anything home

apart from the glory of giving Wilson such a tight contest.

Fighting on to the bitter end, so well done.

Wilson, as our winner, you'll definitely be taking home

your prize of £1,200, and shortly you'll have the chance

to add an extra £1,000 to your winnings. First, though,

shall we take a moment to congratulate the Think Tanker

who gave the most correct answers during the show?

Today's top thinker is...

It's Max! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Wilson, then, you've got one last chance to boost your prize money

as you face our Question: Impossible.

So, this is the toughest question of the whole show,

because no-one in our Think Tank answered it correctly.

So, Wilson, if you can achieve what none of them here could

and give us the correct answer, that extra £1,000 will be yours, OK?

-OK.

-Let's take a look, then, at your Question: Impossible.

Football club known as The Chairboys?

Your team, known as The Accies, of course.

Let's see what the Think Tankers had to say, getting the wrong answers.

Chelsea, Arsenal, Real Madrid, Leeds, Charlton,

or Charlton Athletic, or Watford.

All of those are wrong.

Does that help you get any closer to the answer?

No.

Never heard of this one. Chair...

I'm just trying to assimilate, why Chair?

Who makes chairs, perhaps?

I'm going to go for Cheltenham.

-Going for Cheltenham?

-Cheltenham.

The Cheltenham Chairboys,

got a certain ring to it, an alliteration.

Which football club are known as The Chairboys?

Wilson says Cheltenham, this is for an extra £1,000.

Is he right?

No, he's not, it's Wycombe Wanderers.

Wycombe Wanderers, High Wycombe,

known, in the old days, for furniture making.

Furniture, this is...what I was going down the road of.

Wycombe Wanderers, the pride of the Chilterns,

they play magnificent football in League Two. How do I know that?

-You're a supporter?

-They're my club.

-There you go.

-There you go!

There you go. Sorry, that wasn't it.

You didn't conquer the Question: Impossible,

but you're still leaving with your prize fund of £1,200,

so that will go some way towards your travel plans, won't it?

Probably buy Hamilton Accies two new players!

-Well done, Wilson, thank you very much.

-Thank you, Bill.

Thank you very much for watching, do join us next time

when three more contestants will see whether they can

bank on the Think Tank.

Until then, it's goodbye from them...

-ALL:

-Goodbye!

-..and it's goodbye from me. Bye-bye.
