Episode 13 Think Tank

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

under exam conditions before the show. Their answers are in,

but how helpful will they be to the three contestants?

Playing the game are Matthew,

a scaffolder from Barnsley in South Yorkshire.

Carol-Anne, a housing assistant from Glasgow.

And Mike, a technical support officer from Calne in Wiltshire.

This is Think Tank.

Welcome to the show. Welcome, as ever,

to our Think Tank and what a cultured group we have here!

English literature graduate Max is never far from the British Museum.

Mainly cos he lives just around the corner.

Office assistant Anisha thinks art galleries

are the perfect place to meet a date.

And chemistry teacher Arminel loves to attend lectures,

particularly when you get a free glass of wine just for turning up.

On this show, though, their motivations are crystal clear,

however - to provide correct answers to help our three contestants.

Welcome to all of you.

Matthew, you're a scaffolder. And your home life keep you busy?

Yeah, very much so. I've got three young kids, so yeah.

All right. Do you have to cook for them?

I try my best, but I'm not very good. How not good are you?

Er, I could burn water, put it that way.

OK. Where did you grow up?

I grew up on a dairy farm.

Did you? Yeah, yeah. It were a family farm, yeah.

Mark, you grew up on a farm, didn't you?

Absolutely, but I was the third son to the, er...

The two older brothers had actually got the first opportunity,

which was not a bad thing.

And they turned you off the property, was it? Absolutely.

I got to do the garden. OK, all right.

What do you do in your spare time?

I like to play darts, fairly badly, I may add.

So, hang on, you're not good at cooking...

No. You're not good at darts, you must be good at something?

Er, hopefully, it's this quiz.

Wow! That's...

Now, that's raising the flag, OK.

So, welcome, Matthew.

Thank you. Carol-Anne, you are a housing assistant from Glasgow.

Do you like a challenge? I do, I do, usually for charity.

So what have you done? I've abseiled off the Finnieston Crane,

which is a crane in Glasgow, it's 174 feet.

That was absolutely terrifying!

I'm sure it was! I mean, it's a tall crane, isn't it?

It is, and I have a fear of heights.

Well, well done for doing that. Commonwealth Games,

of course, in Glasgow. I have, I was, er...

Did you get involved in that?

Clydesider in Glasgow, 2014, I volunteered.

We helped the visitors.

And did you give them a nice warm Glasgow greeting?

"Welcome to Glesga!

"Enjoy yersel! Come oan in!

"It's gonnae be a belter!"

Aw, lovely! Arminel volunteered for the Commonwealth Games.

Oh, right? Is that what you used to say?

I did volunteer for the Commonwealth Games and I did not do

it in a Glaswegian accent.

Well, welcome to the programme, Carol-Anne. Thank you.

Mike, you're a technical support officer.

Have you always done that or did you have a previous career?

No, I had a long career in the air force.

I was an air force officer, engineer officer, for 38 years.

You must have travelled a bit with them, did you?

Oh, yes, all around the world.

And what will you need some help on?

Pop culture. And, er, modern...

modern music.

Pop culture, modern music, Anisha's the person for you!

Hey, yeah, I do like a little bit of popular culture, and modern music,

so I can help you there, definitely.

All right, so good luck to all three of you.

Over three rounds, our contestants will try to tap

into the Think Tank's knowledge to build up as much money as possible.

The Think Tank have tried to answer all the questions to the best of

their ability, whether right or wrong.

The two highest scorers then amongst you will go through to the final.

Ultimately, just one will walk away with a cash prize.

So, shall we play the first round?

So, I'm going to ask you a question

and then every member of the Think Tank

will reveal the answer they gave before the show.

The correct answers are always there somewhere,

but also any number of mistakes in there too.

Pick out the right answer, ?200 added to your prize fund.

Two questions each. Matthew, you're up first.

Here's a question we put to the Think Tank.

You don't have to answer just yet,

let's see what the Think Tank thought about this one,

starting with Arminel.

Flash Gordon the most popular choice,

but an array of other superheroes of a sort in there.

What do you think, Matthew? Er...

Well, I don't know it, but, er, I'm going to go with Peter and Mark,

and say it's Flash Gordon.

Flash Gordon is your answer, for the arch-enemy of Ming the Merciless.

Let's see if you're right.

Flash Gordon it is, well done.

From the planet Mongo, as you may remember.

And it has that famous line, of course, doesn't it?

"Gordon's alive!" "Gordon's alive!"

Indeed! OK, well done, Matthew.

?200 to your prize fund. Thank you.

Carol-Anne, you've seen how it works.

Yeah. Here's your first question.

Here are the choices that the Think Tank made.

Arminel?

Lots of fruit in there, a very healthy salad for you, but, er,

what do you think?

I don't actually know what a paw-paw is.

However, I think Diane might actually have something there.

I'm going to go with papaya.

Papaya, you think is the fruit which has the name also paw-paw.

Let's see if you're right.

Papaya it is, well done.

Well done to Diane, the only one who got that right.

Thank you. Well done, you.

My father-in-law grows them in Dominica.

There you are, you had secret knowledge.

Well done. So, Carol-Anne, ?200 for you.

Thank you. You're off the mark. Mike, here's your first question.

What did the Think Tank make of this?

Arminel?

Four for Australia, three for the USA, one for Mexico.

What do you think, Mike? Um, well, I think that, er,

my first guess was Australia.

I'm not exactly sure.

But I'm going to go for Australia.

Australia is your answer as the country in which the Mad Max films

are set.

Let's have a look.

Australia it is, well done.

Set in a post-apocalyptic future, of course.

Mike, well done. ?200 to your prize fund for that correct answer.

We come back to Matthew for your second question.

What did the Think Tank sign up for here?

So, five members of the Think Tank think it was Prince Andrew.

Are you going to go with the majority, Matthew?

No, er, I've...

I seem to think it were Prince Edward.

I think Charles went into the navy and, er, Andrew was in the...

..air force, so I'm thinking it's Prince Edward.

All right, Prince Edward is your answer

as the member of the royal family who joined the Marines in 1986.

Let's see if you're right.

Prince Edward it is, well done indeed.

He resigned his commission in 1987,

went to work for Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Prince Andrew was in the navy, in fact, OK.

Len, you're a retired engineer now,

but, er, when you were a younger man,

you had a brief spell in the Merchant Navy, didn't you?

Well, I've done my bit for Queen and country.

I decided to join the Merchant Navy,

so I packed my bags and went to Gravesend.

I spent two weeks there and a week of that was in sick bay.

I didn't like it and went home.

So you never got to sea?

I had the haircut! Never even seen a boat!

Or a ship! All right, well done, thanks for that.

All right, ?200 for Matthew.

Carol-Anne, here's your second question.

What do the Think Tank make of that?

Arminel?

So a fair range to choose from.

Six UK Top 10 albums in 2016.

I remember Adele having top album.

However, I think possibly Sam Smith may have beaten her to it.

Sam Smith's your answer? Yeah.

As the British singer who had six UK Top 10 albums in 2016.

Let see if you're right.

It was David Bowie, in fact.

A lot of people bought his albums after he died earlier in the year.

Certainly. So, Carol-Anne, nothing for you there are and, Mike,

here is your second question.

Which cities did the Think Tank choose?

Arminel?

So, four for London, three for New York, one somewhere else.

What do you think, Mike? Well,

I think that the idea of Samuel Johnson in Las Vegas is interesting!

It's novel, it's certainly novel.

However, I think the answer is London.

London is what your choosing for us,

the city that Samuel Johnson said someone's

"tired of life" when they're tired of that town.

Are you right?

London it is.

Arminel and Max, you both got it right. You both live in London.

Yes, and I agree. Not tired of it yet?

Absolutely not, no.

No, no, I've lived there

for a very long time now and I agree with Samuel Johnson.

OK. All right, so well done, Mike,

that's ?200 for you and that brings us to the end of the first round.

So, let's take a look at the prize funds.

Carol-Anne is on ?200, but tied on ?400 are Matthew and Mike.

A long way to go still, though, as we enter our next round.

Every member of the Think Tank is holding two questions which they

answered correctly before the show.

You are going to take it in turns to pick someone from the Think Tank

whose knowledge you think you can match and, for every correct answer,

another ?200 will be added to your prize fund.

They're not experts, but they are interested in different subjects,

so think carefully about who might be on your wavelength.

Once a Think Tanker's asked both of their questions,

they can't be picked again, OK?

Matthew, you get to go first, you have the whole bunch to choose from.

Er, can I have the lovely, smiley Peter, please?

Pizza waiter Peter!

Um, I'm a big comic book fan, so, um,

I used to spend all of my pocket money in the comic book shop

when I was quite young.

OK, so my question for you is...

Who's the alter-ego of the Marvel comic book character Tony Stark?

Er, it's Iron Man.

Iron Man? Yeah. All right, very confident off the mark there.

Iron Man, is he right? Iron Man is correct!

Iron Man, played by Robert Downey Jr, of course, in several films.

So, well done, Matthew, another ?200 for your running total.

Carol-Anne, you're up next, you can still choose any one of the eight.

I think I'll with Diane.

Retired HR adviser Diane!

OK, hello, and we do have something in common.

I used to work with the Chartered Institute of Housing,

so I know that the job you do is absolutely wonderful.

Ah, yes. And I hope you get this question right.

I love seafood and the question is...

I don't think I've ever had it before.

It's not ringing any bells.

Um, however, because of Kilpatrick, I think I...

It doesn't sound like it goes together but I may go for beef?

You're saying beef is used with Oysters Kilpatrick.

Is she right, Diane?

I'm so sorry, it's bacon.

Oh. Bacon was the answer we were looking for.

Sorry. Oysters Kilpatrick typically served with Worcester sauce.

So, if you'd had it, you'd know, wouldn't you? Yeah, you would.

So, sorry, Carol-Anne, no money on that question.

Mike, you're up next and you can still choose anyone you like.

I will choose Max, please.

Max, our PR executive!

Well, happy to oblige.

This is a historical question, so hopefully you know this.

It's a great attraction in London,

if you've never had the chance to go, and I thoroughly recommend it.

Well, I've run past the Cutty Sark

three times on London Marathons,

and I think it was designed to bring tea from China.

Tea is your answer.

And is it the right one?

Mike, you're absolutely right, it was a tea clipper.

Well done.

The Cutty Sark, launched in 1869,

and named after a poem by Robert Burns.

OK, ?200 added to your total, Mike.

We come back to Matthew and you can still choose all of the eight.

Er, I'll go with Peter again.

He seems to be on my wavelength, so hopefully...

OK, um, I got this question right,

because I'm a part-time reservist in the army and we had to know a lot

about the weather, so you might get this right too, OK.

On a weather map, an isobar's a line that connects points of equal what?

Er... I don't know.

Er... It's just a stab in the dark.

Er, equal latitude.

Equal latitude is your answer?

Yeah. Is latitude the right kind of line?

I'm afraid not, it's pressure.

It's pressure.

Equal pressure. Nothing for you there, Matthew.

No. And, Carol-Anne, we come to you again,

and you can choose anybody apart from Peter.

I will try Mark today.

Mark, our creative director.

OK, well, I know the answer to this question, specifically,

cos I used to do a bit of modelling myself, many moons ago,

and the question is...

Um... I didn't see it, unfortunately.

Um, male models, I'm not...

..that great with, unfortunately.

But I will try...

..John Smith. John Smith!

Sorry! John Smith?

I think you might have got this, or you'll be kicking yourself.

It's David Gandy.

David Gandy!

You've heard of him? I have, actually, yes.

Yeah, yeah. All right, Carol-Anne, nothing for you there.

Mike, we come to you again.

Anybody apart from Peter.

OK, I'd like to pick Arminel, please.

Arminel? Right, well, I'm a chemistry teacher,

I hope that you will get this right,

although it's not that chemical, really!

I think it's lead.

Lead? Yes.

That was a good answer, but it's sulphur,

as in fire and brimstone from the Bible, so volcanic.

From which we make sulphuric acid?

Yeah, it's the most used chemical in the world, sulphuric acid,

so it's an indication of a nation's industrialisation.

OK, so, Mike, sorry, nothing for you there.

Matthew, we come back to you again

and you can still choose anybody apart from Peter.

Er, can I try Len, please?

Len, our retired engineer!

Here we go.

Well, this is a wildlife question, this is.

Which species of deer the largest land mammal found in the wild

in the UK?

There's a few, in't there?

Er, it's going to have to be a bit of a guess.

Well, I know it's not reindeer.

Er... I'll just go for roe deer.

Roe deer? Yeah. Roe deer?

It's actually red deer.

Ah! Red deer! You weren't far off!

Yeah. Red deer, roe deer.

Sometimes as much as 1.2 metres high at the shoulder and typically have

very large antlers.

But nothing for you there, I'm afraid.

Carol-Anne, we come to you again

and still seven of the eight you can have.

Can I try Anisha, please?

Anisha? Hi, Carol-Anne.

Hi. So, the reason why I know this is because, on a regular basis,

me and my sister do lip-sync battles, which I'm so good at,

can I just throw that out there?

And this is my number one choice of song, so the question is...

How are you on your boybands, Carol-Anne?

It kind of depends when and what age the boys are!

When they were around? Yes.

Um, I Want It That Way, I can almost picture them, um...

I will say One Direction, although I'm not confident with that answer.

Unfortunately not, it's Backstreet Boys.

Oh! Backstreet Boys!

Their other hits include As Long As You Love Me

and The Shape Of My Heart. Aw. So, sorry, Carol-Anne, nothing there.

Mike, we come to you again and still seven of the eight you can have.

OK, I think I'll go for Max again, please.

Max? Well, Mike, it's not quite a historical question,

but it is one of my other passions, which is Shakespeare,

so here's a question about a Shakespeare play.

Um, The Merchant Of Venice.

Merchant Of Venice is your answer, came to that one quickly.

Is he right? You're so close, it is a play set in Venice,

but it is Othello!

Ah! Othello it was indeed.

She comes to a rather unhappy end at the hands of her husband as well.

So, nothing for you there, Mike, and that is the end of the round,

so let's have a look at your running totals, shall we?

Carol-Anne is on ?200.

Tied on ?600 are Matthew and Mike.

So, you each had three questions there,

but none of you chose to hear from Abi.

And we don't want her to feel left out, do we?

And we want her to show off her good knowledge,

so how about having one of your questions, Abi?

Just for fun! OK, um, so, as a junior doctor,

I get bleeped about coming to see one of these patients

typically on a night shift.

Just to see whether you know it, you might have the answer at home.

Anybody here have an idea?

The appendix? The appendix, well done, Mike!

Abi, thank you very much for sharing that with us.

OK, let's get back to business, then.

So, one of you will shortly have to leave the game,

but you've still got one last chance to take the lead.

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

then two members of the Think Tank

will give you the answer that they gave

before the show and their reasons for giving it.

Only one of them has the right answer.

If you side with the correct person,

you'll get ?200 for your prize fund.

Just five questions remain, though,

before we do have to say goodbye to one of you,

so do choose your answers carefully and here's the first question.

We're going to hear answers from Len and Diane.

Len? Well, my answer is Roger Moore.

Although he looks taller on-screen, he's not actually that tall.

Roger Moore. Roger Moore.

Diane? Well, I thought it was Daniel Craig,

because I'm sure Sean Connery did it, and he's pretty short,

but I thought Daniel Craig was the shortest of all, so,

when he emerged out of the water, if a big wave would've come over,

it would've knocked him over! So I'm sure that it was him.

OK! So, Len says it's Roger Moore.

Diane says it's Daniel Craig.

Who is right?

Please lock in your answers.

And let's see what you came up with.

All three of you have gone with Daniel Craig.

A unanimous vote. Let's see if you're right.

Daniel Craig it was, indeed.

Daniel Craig, five foot ten. Roger Moore, six foot one. Mm-hm!

Well done. ?200 to all of you.

Here's the next question.

Arminel and Max for this one. Arminel?

I think it was Marco Pierre White and my reasoning for that is

because, to be the first British-born chef, it's got to have

been a while ago and he was, um,

a very successful chef when young.

He was quite the "enfant terrible", um, but he's been around a while,

so Marco Pierre White.

OK, and Max?

I went for another famous chef, Gordon Ramsay, who, obviously,

we all know from his television programmes, but I believe that,

before he became famous for his four-letter words,

he became famous for his three Michelin stars,

and I'd say he's definitely been around long enough in the business

to secure those stars for his restaurants.

Arminel says Marco Pierre White.

Max has gone with Gordon Ramsay.

What do you think, contestants? Lock in your answers, please.

And again, all three of you have come up with the same answer -

Marco Pierre White.

Is it the right way?

Marco Pierre White it is indeed, well done.

Aha! Aha!

Thank you.

And at the age of 33, the youngest chef to be awarded Michelin stars.

Yeah. So good knowledge there.

And well done to all three of you. ?200 for all of your prize funds.

Here's question number three.

Mark and Peter for this one.

Mark? Well,

a considerable amount of my historical knowledge comes from

Blackadder and, in the second series of Blackadder,

it was set during the reign of Elizabeth I and it's where Baldrick

came in as the star of that particular show.

And there was a lot of codpieces there, and I just think, at some

point, they would have had to have got that name from somewhere, so,

yeah, I think it's a codpiece.

Peter? I went for sword,

because it sort of had a Celtic feel and I thought they would have worn

it as, you know, wrapped a sword in it, so...

So, Mark says it's a codpiece.

Peter says it's a sword.

What do you think was typically held by a baldric, contestants?

Lock in your answers, please. And let's see what you came out with.

Matthew and Carol-Anne say it was a codpiece.

Mike's gone out on his own with a sword.

Who's right?

Mike is right, with swords.

Well done.

And, as Mark mentioned, Baldrick, of course,

the name made famous in the TV series Blackadder,

played by Tony Robinson.

OK. So, ?200 for you, Mike.

Question number four coming up.

A bit of a complicated question for Max and Diane to tackle. Max?

So, the Ivy League is obviously the group of the best universities

in the United States.

And the most prestigious one of those,

which I'm going to say is the answer to this, is Harvard.

So Harvard College was obviously based in Massachusetts, and still

is, and holds claim to being one of the oldest schools in America,

being founded in the 17th century, and I'd say,

if anything gives you wisdom and skill, I'd say it was age, so, yes,

maybe don't trust me, but I would say that Harvard

is the right answer here.

All right, Diane? OK, well, I went for Princeton.

I mean, when you think of the film The Blind Side,

all of the best universities were trying to get this young man that,

um, had been rescued to play ball for them.

And the one that he decided to go for was the best

Ivy League university

in the United States, which is Princeton.

OK, Max says it's Harvard.

Diane says it's Princeton.

What do you think, contestants? Lock in your answers.

So, Matthew and Mike have gone for Harvard.

Carol-Anne's on her own with Princeton.

What's the right answer?

Harvard it is!

Well done, Max.

Located in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

?200, then, for Matthew and Mike.

And here's your final question for this round.

We're going to hear answers from Anisha and Abi.

Anisha?

So, I said David Beckham and the reason was because, by this point,

I'd used my default answer of Andy Murray too many times!

So I thought I'd go for my other default, being David Beckham,

and that's why I put it.

OK, very logically worked out there, really.

Yeah. And Abi?

So, I went with Jonny Wilkinson, mainly because I think, around 2002,

England were doing pretty well in terms of rugby and I'm pretty sure

he was captain in and around then and he still had teeth, um,

so I went with Jonny Wilkinson.

All right. Anisha says David Beckham.

Abi says Jonny Wilkinson.

Contestants, it's up to you now. Lock in your answers.

So, Matthew and Carol-Anne have gone for David Beckham.

Jonny Wilkinson's the rugby choice of Mike.

Who's got it right?

David Beckham! It was indeed.

The default answer!

You were right for all the wrong reasons, really, weren't you there?

I was still right, and that's all that matters.

But he got put there because of the goal

he scored against Argentina in the World Cup.

Do you remember that penalty?

And it was England 1, Argentina 0, the result.

So that's why they put him up there.

That's great. All right, ?200, then, for Matthew and Carol-Anne,

so that brings us to the end of the round and the main game,

so let's take a look at your totals.

Matthew and Mike are tied on ?1,400.

Carol-Anne has just ?800,

so we have to say goodbye to you, Carol-Anne, sadly.

Have you had a good time?

I have, thank you, it's been great.

OK, well, thanks very much for coming along.

Thank you. OK. Well done, Matthew and Mike,

you two now compete to take home the money you've earned in our final.

Matthew, if you win today, how will you spend your prize money,

do you think? Well, I'd like to put it towards

taking the kids to Disneyland.

They're still young, like, and it's been a dream of ours,

so hopefully, one day, we'll get there.

How old are the kids? Er, 13, 11 and 8.

Well, good luck with it. Thank you. Mike, what would you do?

Well, I intend to, um, buy my wife a new ring.

She's got her eye on a particular ring in our local jewellers and the

rest of it will go towards a trip to Florida to see my uncle and auntie

who live there. Lovely.

Well, look, good luck to you both.

Thank you. The final's a general knowledge battle.

I'm going to ask you five questions each.

Whoever gets the most correct answers

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

You're not on your own, though.

The Think Tankers still here to help you out, if they can.

You can pick someone to consult with before you answer the questions.

Each member, though, can only be picked once.

The difference in the final, compared to the rest of the show,

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

so they know as little about them as you do.

OK, let's get on with it, then.

Here's the final.

Matthew, we're going to start with you. Here's your first question.

Who would you like to help you here?

Er, I'll ask Max.

Max? Matthew, I'm sure you're a smart man,

but I think you may have made the worst decision...

I don't really have a great knowledge of any of

the football clubs.

Perhaps you may be able to throw us a bone on this one?

It's Man United. Is it?

Yeah. I mean, of course(!)

Now you say it! Manchester United.

Manchester United you say is the Premier League club

for which Marcus Rashford made his debut in 2016.

Let's see if you're right.

Manchester United it is, of course, well done.

And Marcus Rashford went on to become the youngest England player

to play for England in the European Championships.

Yeah. So, good stuff, well done, you're off the mark.

Mike, here's your first question.

You can choose any of the Think Tank apart from Max to help you.

I will choose Arminel, please.

Arminel? Right, OK, well,

we're going to have to try and work our way through this.

First of all, do you have an idea about it?

I think it's focaccia.

OK, so we've got focaccia...

..um, and ciabatta.

I mean, I don't know.

Ciabatta?

If you think it's focaccia...

Hmm. I can't offer anything.

I don't know. Um...

and I'm not sure I'm pronouncing that correctly anyway,

so I will go for ciabatta.

So you're saying ciabatta is the type of bread that takes its name

from the Italian for slipper, let's see if you're right.

You are! Ciabatta it is! Well done! Like I suggested it!

So it's 1-1.

Matthew, here's your next question.

Six of the eight you can go with still.

Anisha, please. Anisha.

I don't know rock bands, unless it's Blink 182.

Did you have any ideas?

It's not an old band. It's not an old band?

No. What about, um, a newish rock band is Royal Blood,

but I don't know if that's the answer.

I'll just have to have a guess.

OK. Er...

Arcade Fire? Arcade Fire?

Yeah. Arcade Fire is the band with which Yannis Philippakis sings?

Let's see if you're right.

Foals was the name you are looking for. Never heard of 'em.

Not familiar with them? I've no idea who they are.

They were nominated as the Best British Group

in the 2016 Brit Awards, in fact.

Ah! There you go - Foals. 1-1, then.

Mike, you can take the lead with this second question for you.

I think Diane should be able to help me.

Yes, well, actually,

my dad used to play this game for the West Indian Wanderers and I

would say that it's cricket.

I would totally agree with you.

I grew up on cricket,

so I'm sure it's going to come up and we'll be high-fiving.

Yup. Cricket?

Cricket. You say is the sport

which Basil D'Oliveira was a famous name in.

Let's see if you're right.

Cricket it is. Well done.

And his inclusion in the 1968 England squad

led to the exclusion of South Africa

from international sport for 20 years,

so a very important name in cricket and in sport in general.

OK, so 2-1 to you, Mike, at the moment.

Matthew, you can still catch up.

Here is your third question.

I think I've got a bit of an idea, but, er, Peter, can you help me?

Well, nothing really comes to mind, really, except for the evil baddie,

which was Doomsday.

It was the demonic monster at the end.

General Zod? General Zod, I think.

Could Gal be a girl's name?

Could it be the, er...? Wonder Woman!

Wonder Woman is what I'm thinking.

Ooh, yes.

It's a bit of a punt, but, er, I'll have a guess at Wonder Woman.

Wonder Woman's your answer as the comic book character played by

Gal Gadot in Batman v Superman.

Yeah. All right, let's see if you're on the money there.

Wonder Woman it is, very good, well done!

Good teamwork there... Yeah, yeah.

..between the two of you, well done, OK. So, it's now 2-2.

Mike, here is your third question.

You just have Mark, Abi and Len to choose from.

I'll go with Mark.

Oh, the Rime of the Ancient Mariner!

I haven't read it, er...

so the only thing to try and help you, unless you maybe know it

already, Mike. I think I do.

Well, I'm going to pass straight over to you.

I guess maybe is the clue in the title?

Well, it is, um,

and these birds are also residents of the Falkland Islands,

if I'm correct, and, er,

it's the albatross.

You're saying it's the albatross was the bird that was shot by

the Mariner in the Rime of the Ancient Mariner?

Let's see if you're right.

Well done! Albatross it was, well done.

The poem written by Samuel Coleridge, of course,

includes the famous line "water, water everywhere,

"nor any drop to drink."

All right, so it's 3-2 to Mike.

Matthew, you can still catch up with your fourth question.

I haven't a clue.

So, it's Len and Abi you can choose from.

Er, I'll try Abi.

Abi, our doctor.

I wish I knew. I did Latin at school, um, unfortunately,

it was a long time ago now.

Um... so you have no idea?

Not a clue. So the "ergo sum".

Ergo, I feel like there's something like "I am" in this phrase, but...

Could it be "I think, therefore I am"?

Yeah. Yes, I...

That's the only thing that sounds like it could be that.

Yeah. Go for that, then, - "I think, therefore I am".

OK, the usual English translation of the Latin phrase "Cogito ergo sum"

you're saying, "I think, therefore I am".

Are you right?

You are!

Well done! Woohoo! "I think, therefore I am."

Well done. Thank you. It's a quote from Rene Descartes.

Ah. Yeah, well done. OK.

So it's 3-3.

Mike, here is your fourth question and you just have Len to help you.

I don't know this.

Um, but I'd like to get, er...

Len's view, as a fellow engineer.

Yeah, um...

Obviously, looking at Manuel, you know, it sounds like a Spanish

or maybe a South American...

..um, name.

I was thinking Portuguese.

I haven't heard of any elections

in Spain or Portugal in, er...

Like it's 2014, isn't it?

So you're talking... Yeah.

..a little while ago, so...

I think I will go for Portugal.

Portugal? Yeah. OK, you're saying, in 2014,

Manuel Valls became Prime Minister of Portugal.

Let see if you got the right country.

It was France! Aw! Oh!

He succeeded Francois Hollande, who went on to be President of France.

So, with four questions gone, it is 3-3.

Getting very exciting!

Your fifth question now!

No Think Tankers left to help you out,

so you're on your own from here now.

Matthew, here's question number five for you.

I don't know.

Books aren't my strong point at all.

I'm thinking of Arthur Conan Doyle, but...

No, I don't know.

Er, I'll just go for Arthur Conan Doyle.

Arthur Conan Doyle? Yeah. You say is the author of The Strange Case of

Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde.

Are you right? Let's find out.

Ah! It was Robert Louis Stevenson.

Published in 1886.

Hard lines. Yeah. Mike, if you get this one right,

you will be our winner today, OK?

You're on your own here.

I think it's a Dame.

Dame is what you're going for? Yes. OK.

So the wife of an Earl can be referred to as a Lady

or by another title - you're saying it's a Dame.

This is to be today's winner and,

for ?1,400, let's see if you're right.

Ah! It's Countess!

Of course it is. It's a Countess.

So, after five questions each, your scores are tied.

We're going to go to sudden death.

All the members of the Think Tank have been used up,

so you're still on your own until we find a winner, OK?

Matthew, here is your next question.

Formula 1 Grand Prix?

Formula 1 Grand Prix? Yeah.

You seem quite confident about this.

Yeah, I know this one.

Max Verstappen, a leading name in which sport?

You're saying Formula 1 Grand Prix, let's see if you're right.

Formula 1, well done!

Well, having been in the lead before, Mike,

you now have to get this answer right to stay in the game, OK?

I believe it's chlorine.

Chlorine? OK.

You're saying chlorine is the chemical element

of which Cl is the symbol.

You have to have this one right in order to stay in today's game.

Let's see if you're right.

Chlorine it is, well done!

Neck and neck, isn't it, hey?

Still just can't get ahead!

OK. All right, Matthew, here's another question for you.

Er, it's going to have to be a guess.

I think Shoguns is...

The trucks called Shoguns and they're from Japan,

so I'll go for Japan.

Japan? You're saying military leaders of Japan

were historically known as Shoguns?

Let's see if you're right.

Japan is correct, well done.

That's you back in the lead.

Mike, once again, you've got to get this one right to stay in it.

Here's your next question.

I don't know this.

I'm trying to think of some contemporary British actors.

No, sorry, I don't know.

Take a guess?

No, nothing's coming to me, I'm afraid.

So you can't think of a name, so you're definitely going to pass?

I'm afraid so, yes. OK.

So the question was which British actor plays the

title role in the BBC drama series Wallander?

And the answer is...

Kenneth Branagh. Ah!

OK. So that means, today, Matthew, you are our winner.

Congratulations, well done!

Well, hard luck, Mike.

I mean, you fought very well.

I'm afraid you're not taking anything home,

but just did really terrifically in that shoot-out,

so thanks very much for playing.

Thank you. Well done. And Matthew's our winner.

You're definitely taking home your prize of ?1,400.

You'll have the opportunity in just a moment to add an extra ?1,000

to your winnings, OK?

First, though, shall we take a moment to find out and congratulate

the Think Tanker who got the most answers right during the show?

And it was...

Peter! Well done! Yey!

Good stuff, Peter, well done. Well done. OK, Matthew,

one last chance now to boost your prize money fairly significantly,

as you face our Question: Impossible.

You've had some pretty tough question so far.

This is the toughest one of the all show,

because no-one in the Think Tank got it right, OK?

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

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

Yeah. Shall we take a look, then, at your Question: Impossible?

Have a think about that.

Yeah. We're going to take a look at the wrong answers

that the Think Tank gave, and this will rule one or two things out, OK?

Here's what they said.

They went for Chris, Liam, Tom, Ann, Suzanna...

..and a couple more for Chris.

OK, so it's none of those.

Which is the oldest of the Hemsworth siblings?

Got any thoughts on that? Not a clue!

I've never heard of them.

One of the three siblings with the surname Hemsworth...

It's going to be a guess. Simon.

You're going with Simon? Simon.

OK. You're saying that Simon Hemsworth is the oldest of the three

Australian acting siblings.

Yeah. You have ?1,400 now.

For an extra ?1,000, you're saying Simon.

Good luck, let's see if you got the right answer.

It's Luke Hemsworth, I'm afraid. No, no, never heard of him.

Sorry, that wasn't right for you.

You didn't conquer the Question: Impossible.

Still leaving with ?1,400.

That'll help the journey with the kids at home.

Yeah, it will. Going to Disneyland?

Yeah, hopefully. Well, we wish them the very best.

We wish you the very best too.

You've been a really good competitor, thanks so much.

Thank you. Thank you. Thanks 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: Bye!

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