Episode 6 Think Tank

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

knowledge 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 Bronwyn,

a retired office worker from Huddersfield,

Sarah, who is on a gap year from Northwood in London,

and Barry, a prosthetic technician from Eastbourne.

This is Think Tank.

Welcome to the show. Welcome, as ever, to our Think Tank. Hi, guys.

-ALL:

-Hello.

A cross-section of the nation featuring a chemistry teacher,

an office assistant and a pizza waiter.

They have a mix of interests and curious specialisms.

For instance, dance teacher Lucy

can recite all episodes of Fawlty Towers.

While Mark, the creative director of a fashion brand,

hopes one day to write a journal on the fashion of Communism.

Will any of that prove useful to our three contestants?

I somehow doubt it, but you never know. You never know.

-Bronwyn, lovely to have you with us.

-Hello, Bill.

Now, you're retired, so what do you do to keep you busy?

Oh, lots of things.

I've joined the University of the Third Age,

go to talks and lectures on those.

Go line dancing.

-So, dancing you like particularly?

-I love dancing.

Oh, I would just love to dance with Anton du Beke

and go around the dance floor and do a waltz.

-It would be wonderful.

-Anton du Beke?

-Hang on...

-Well, I could do one with you, Bill.

Week seven, top six of Strictly Come Dancing!

All right, OK. Bronwyn, your strongest subjects?

I quite like musical theatre.

But more the old things rather than the new ones.

What are you not so good at?

Sport, modern music, geography.

-Ah, well, Mark's your man for geography.

-Is he? Right.

Because when you were younger,

-you had an amazing knowledge, didn't you?

-Yeah, I did at one point.

-I knew every country and capital in Africa.

-Did you?

I think I might still do.

So, geography questions, he's your man, OK? Welcome to the show.

Sarah, you're on a gap year. How are you filling it?

I am working as a waitress. Whoo for waiting staff, yeah.

-Whoo!

-LAUGHTER

And also, I had a job at the Harry Potter Studio doing the tour.

So, I learned a lot about Harry Potter,

so that's a possible specialist subject.

Because Peter is, of course, a pizza waiter as well,

-so common ground for you there.

-Yeah.

What are you going to study when you do finish your gap year?

I'm going to study liberal arts.

And lots of people do that face. They do, "Oh!"

And there's a big long pause.

-Liberal arts?

-It's not liberal and it's not arts. It's...

I'm not really sure. I'll see what happens!

LAUGHTER

-Well, good luck with that. OK, nice to have you with us.

-Thanks.

So, Barry, you are a prosthetics technician, but in your spare time,

you're also a referee.

-I've just completed 30 years' service as a referee.

-Wow.

How many red and yellow cards have you issued?

In my career, I estimate 2,000 yellow cards and 600 red cards.

Well, I've had to issue a couple of yellow cards to this lot.

More than once, I can tell you!

So, your strongest subjects?

I'd like to think I'm pretty good at sport.

And where do you think you need some help?

I think definitely English literature is the subject

I would really struggle on.

Hands up here, anyone who's read any books?

OK, Arminel, Lucy, probably.

There you go, best to help you there.

So, welcome to all three of you.

Over three rounds, then, our contestants will try to tap into

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

Don't forget, the Think Tank have tried to answer all the questions

to the best of their ability, whether they're right or wrong.

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

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

Let's play the first round.

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

then every member of the Think Tank

will reveal the answer they gave before the show.

The correct answer's always going to be there somewhere

but any number of mistakes also in the mix.

Pick out the right one and £200 is added to your prize fund.

-Two questions each. Bronwyn, you're first.

-OK.

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

So, a football question for you.

Have a look at what the Think Tank came up with. Starting with Peter.

West Ham United.

Bournemouth.

West Ham United.

Leicester City.

Tottenham Hotspur.

Everton.

West Ham United.

Bournemouth.

We've got a trio of Hammers in there and a clutch of others.

-Football your thing at all?

-No. I have absolutely no idea.

But I'll go...

-..for West Ham United.

-With the majority verdict?

-Yes.

West Ham United, you say, is the Premier League team

which played its final home match at the Boleyn Ground in May 2016.

Let's see if you're on the right pitch there.

You are, West Ham United it is, well done.

Oh, great! Good guess.

-And from there, they moved to the Olympic Stadium.

-Did they?

-In Stratford.

-Oh, right.

Well done, Bronwyn,

£200 goes into your prize fund and we move on to Sarah.

You've seen how it works. Here's your first question.

Have a think about that. Chew on it if you like, for a moment.

And let's see what the Think Tank thought. Peter?

Hearts.

Shells.

Ears.

Shells.

Eggs.

Circles.

Ears.

Balls.

Lots of things to choose from there, Sarah. What do you reckon?

I've eaten the shell pasta on many occasions.

But that word rings no bells.

And speaking of a ringing bells,

maybe it's ears.

I'm thinking that's quite

an unusual answer to see on there,

so maybe they have some inside pasta knowledge.

-I think I will go with ears.

-OK.

Well, you're saying then

orecchiette translates as little ears.

Let's see if you got the right answer.

Ears it is, well done.

Orecchiette. It's almost like, you can almost hear it, can't you?

Arminel, you got that right.

Where words come from is a particular interest for you?

Yes, absolutely. I knew the French for ear was oreille,

and so I went for little ears.

Well deduced indeed, well done.

Sarah, £200 goes into your prize fund and, Barry,

we'll come to your first question.

What sort of job could the Think Tank make out of that?

Teachers.

Doctor.

The clergy.

Postman.

Doctor.

Doctor.

Doctor.

Nurse.

So, half of the Think Tank going for doctors. What do you think, Barry?

Well, looking at that, all very trusted professions

and I would be inclined

to go for doctors, as I do work with them every day in my job.

So, you're saying that the UK's most trusted profession,

according to an Ipsos MORI poll, is the doctor.

Let's see if you're right.

Doctor it is, well done.

Interestingly, the clergy and postman also came up

in the Think Tank's list and Cleve,

you've been both of those, haven't you?

Yes, I have! At the same time!

But you chose nurse!

Absolutely, absolutely every time. I'm a carer.

Teachers came second, judges came third.

But of course, of the lot of you, the one I would really trust most

-with my life must be Abi because she's a doctor.

-Yes!

I hope so, I hope people will trust me after they watch this!

I hope they still do.

Do you know, that thought never crossed my mind.

All right, Barry, well done.

£200 is added to your prize fund for that correct answer.

We come back to Bronwyn for your second question.

You know how it works now, so have a look at this.

Well, let's see what the Think Tank can help you with here. Peter?

Mel B.

Victoria Beckham.

Geri Halliwell.

Geri Halliwell.

Victoria Beckham.

Victoria Beckham.

Victoria Beckham.

Mel B.

Again, half of the Think Tank going with one particular individual.

Well, I think probably Victoria Beckham.

I don't think she's done much as a singer on her own

as the other ones have.

All right, then, Victoria Beckham you say is the only one of

the Spice Girls not to have had a UK number one single

since leaving the band.

Let's see if you've got the right one.

Victoria Beckham it is, well done.

The closest she's come, in fact,

-was a number two hit in the year 2000 with the Dane Bowers.

-Oh, wow.

-So, good faith in the Think Tank.

-Yes.

-£200 for you, Bronwyn.

Sarah, here's your second question.

Have a look at what the Think Tank thought about this. Peter?

Winston Churchill.

Charles Darwin

Winston Churchill.

Charles Darwin.

Charles Darwin.

Charles Darwin.

Thomas Telford.

Isambard Kingdom Brunel.

So, Sarah, a fairly varied cast,

but Charles Darwin picked by half of the Think Tank.

I'm tempted to say Winston Churchill because I feel like

he has a sort of

banknote face.

Erm, it's difficult.

I think I will go against the majority and go with

Winston Churchill.

So, you're saying Winston Churchill appears on

the new plastic £5 Bank of England note.

Let's see if you've got the right face.

Winston Churchill it is! Well done.

So, that was very well judged, actually.

These are the first Bank of England notes to be printed on polymer.

Sarah, well done. £200 goes to your prize fund.

Barry, we come to your second question.

Let's see what the Think Tank had to say about this one.

Madonna.

Tina Turner.

Shirley Bassey.

Shirley Bassey.

Adele.

Alicia Keys.

Adele.

Sheena Easton.

Quite a choir we've got there, Barry, for you to choose from.

Yes, all very notable pop stars.

Right, I know Shirley Bassey

performed two James Bond songs.

So, on the laws of probability,

I'm going to go with Shirley Bassey

because she's done two James Bond theme tunes.

So, you're saying Shirley Bassey is the only person to have sung

a James Bond theme song and to have appeared during the opening credits.

Have you chosen the right person here?

-It was Sheena Easton.

-Oh!

Cleve, you got that one right.

Do you know which film it was?

I know the song, For Your Eyes Only.

I assume that was the name of the film.

That's the name of the film as well, absolutely right. Well done.

OK, so, Barry, nothing for you there, I'm afraid.

And that brings us to the end of the first round,

so let's take a look at how you're all doing.

Barry has £200, Bronwyn and Sarah are tied on £400.

Everything still to play for, of course.

Every member of the Think Tank in this round is holding two questions

that they answered correctly before the show.

So, you're 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.

Now, the range of questions

reflects their varied interests and knowledge.

Once a Think Tanker has asked both of their questions,

you can't pick them again, OK?

Bronwyn, you get to go first.

You've got the whole Think Tank to choose from,

so who do you think suits you best?

I think I'll choose Arminel, please.

Now, my question, I've got this right because it is actually

a chemistry question, but it's also an origin of words question.

So, was two of my interests were overlapping,

so I hope you can make a good guess at it.

Oh, I think I've chosen the wrong one.

-You never know.

-I think it's guessable.

-Is it guessable? OK.

Which noble gas takes its name

from the Greek work for new?

I don't know what a noble gas is.

New, something like nuevo.

-Nitrogen, I don't know.

-Nitrogen, you're saying.

Is that right?

No, unfortunately.

-It's neon, as in neon lighting.

-Oh, neon.

Neo, I was hoping you'd

go down that pathway.

-Sorry, Bronwyn, no money for you on that question.

-Oh, dear, OK.

You've still got lots of time. And, Sarah, you're up next.

You can choose anyone you like.

I think I will go with Abi.

So, I know this question. It applies to a lot of things.

I just love dogs, I used to brush my dog's teeth.

But this applies to a lot of animals and things.

How many canine teeth does an adult usually have?

I think they're the pointy ones.

So, I think there would be four - one, two, three, four.

-I will go with four.

-Four?

-Yes.

So, you're saying you have four canine teeth in an adult.

-Is that the right?

-Yes, I'll come and give you a high-four any time!

Yes, it's four.

They're between the incisors and the molars.

So, £200 is added to your running total, Sarah, well done.

-Barry, you're up next and you still have all eight.

-I'm going to go...

For that wonderful shirt, I'm going to choose Mark.

Not so sure that the right idea, Barry, on this particular question.

I work in the fashion industry and this look came around

at the end of the Second World War

where people were ready for something new.

The question...

Crikey! Ah, now we're going back, it's a bit before my time.

Not that old just yet!

I don't think Vivienne Westwood's that old.

But she's the only really fashion designer I'd know, I think.

-I'm going to say Vivienne Westwood.

-Vivienne Westwood.

It's a good guess, it's actually quite a tough one.

-It's Christian Dior.

-Christian Dior was the answer.

No money for you, Barry, there, I'm afraid.

And, Bronwyn, you get to choose again and still, anyone you like.

I'll try Ken, please.

I'm glad you chose me, Bronwyn,

because we are both film musical fans.

-Yes.

-My question's about film musicals.

Which 1956 musical starring Grace Kelly

was based on The Philadelphia Story?

That's the one where she's with Bing Crosby.

High Society.

High Society?

-Well done, excellent.

-Well done indeed.

Contains the songs Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and True Love.

I love the song with Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby, when they sung...

-What A Swell Party.

-What A Swell Party This Is, yeah.

With the glasses of champagne waltzing in and out, yes.

-Lovely, brilliant. £200 for Bronwyn there, well done.

-Thank you.

Sarah, we move on to you and you can still choose

any one of the Think Tank.

I think I will go with Lucy.

Our dance teacher, Lucy.

Hi, Sarah. I have a random penguin obsession.

-OK.

-Started in early childhood.

So, I know many things about penguins and I'm hoping you know

at least one and it'll be the answer to this question.

What is the largest living species of penguin, Sarah?

There's one called emperor.

Emperor sounds like it would be a large...

a large one as opposed to a small one.

I know rockhoppers are the small ones.

Emperors sound like a large one, but I think there's...

There's another word like king

or captain or something.

But I won't think of it, so I'll just go with emperor.

Emperor, you're saying, is the

largest living species of penguin.

There is a king penguin and I was worried you were going to

talk yourself out of it because it is emperor, well done.

Emperor beats king any day of the week, doesn't it?

And the emperor is thought to be the world's deepest diving bird.

-Ah.

-Lives in Antarctica.

So, well done. £200, Sarah.

Barry, you can still pick anyone you like.

Right, I'm going to go with Cleve this time.

It's a musical question.

Kind of a general knowledge one, so I think you'll be OK here.

Right, so, obviously out of the four,

it certainly wasn't Ringo because he was the drummer.

So, it's either George Harrison or Paul McCartney, possibly.

-I'm going to go with George Harrison.

-George Harrison?

-George Harrison.

-You say played bass guitar for The Beatles. Is he right?

-I wish you'd stuck with your first one.

-Yeah?

-It's actually Paul McCartney.

-Oh!

Paul McCartney used to play bass left-handed,

-with a guitar that was shaped like a violin.

-Yes.

OK, so nothing for you there, Barry, I'm afraid.

Bronwyn, we come back to you.

Any one of the eight.

-Erm, I'll try Anisha, please.

-Anisha.

OK, so this is actually an arts-based question

because I have an interest in art, in particular, Dadaism.

So, my question is...

The Dada art movement takes its name

from the French word for which traditional children's toy?

-It begins with D so I'll say a drum.

-A drum.

-Is she banging on the right drum there?

-Unfortunately, no.

-It's a rocking horse.

-Oh, a rocking horse!

Oh, dear, OK.

Marcel Duchamp was a notable Dada artist, wasn't he?

-Yes, he was.

-Thanks, Anisha.

-That's all right.

So, nothing for you there, Bronwyn. Sarah, moving on to you.

You still have a full field.

I'm hoping that Arminel might have another word question

because I quite like words, so I'll try you.

No, but...

I...I hope you know it.

I'm half Austrian, so I know answers to questions about Austria.

And so, the question is...

The capital of the Austrian state of Tyrol, Sarah?

Erm, my knowledge of Austrian states and cities

is limited to Vienna.

I have no idea.

So, I'm going to go with Vienna also.

Vienna?

No, sadly.

Vienna is the capital of Austria

and the Tyrol is mountainous and it's Innsbruck.

Innsbruck was the answer we needed, I'm afraid.

Renowned for its winter sports,

in fact, hosted the Winter Olympics in 1964 and 1976.

So, nothing for you, Sarah, I'm afraid. Barry, we move on to you.

You can have anyone but Arminel.

I'm going to go with Peter on this question.

OK, this is a pizza question because I am a pizza waiter.

So, I hope you've eaten lots of pizzas. OK.

Which dish, consisting of a pizza base folded over and filled,

takes its name from the Italian for trouser leg?

I haven't got a clue.

I do eat lots of pizzas, but I've never heard of that one before.

So, only pizza I can...

I'll just go for a mozzarella pizza.

Mozzarella, Peter?

It's sort of a type of pizza base,

so I'm afraid you've got it incorrect.

It's calzone.

Calzone was what we were looking for

because it's folded over,

it's kind of like you fold over pair of trousers.

-Kind of looks like a pasty.

-Yes.

Nothing for you there, Barry, I'm afraid,

and that brings us to the end of the round.

Let's see how our prize funds have changed.

Barry's still on £200, Bronwyn on £600,

but in the lead, Sarah with £800.

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

but there's still one last chance for any of you to take the lead.

Barry, you can still catch up.

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 and their reasons for giving it.

Only one of them has the right answer.

So, if you side with that person,

you'll add £200 to your prize fund.

Five questions only, though,

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

So, choose your answers carefully and here is the first question.

You're going to hear answers from Lucy and Cleve. Lucy first.

Well, I felt that I would most like to have dinner

with David Attenborough.

I think he has had the most fascinating long career

and just what an interesting person he must be to listen to.

-So, that was why I went for David Attenborough.

-And Cleve?

Well, to me, there was only one person in that age group

who I would invite for dinner and actually, he's pretty much

the nation's favourite and that person is Sir Bruce Forsyth.

-OK, so, Lucy, you're saying David Attenborough.

-Yes.

And Cleve is saying Bruce Forsyth, Brucie.

All right, who's right? Lock in your answers.

And let's see what you've come up with.

All three of you have gone for Sir David Attenborough.

Let's find out what the correct answer is.

It is Sir David Attenborough, well done.

Other top choices were Barack Obama, Leonardo DiCaprio and Mother Teresa.

So, £200 to all of you on that question and here's your next one.

Abi and Arminel are going to have a go at this. Abi?

So, I went with George W Bush.

I think people must just follow him and constantly reedit

because they cannot predict what is going to come out of his mouth next.

-So, I went with George W Bush.

-Arminel?

Well, I decided on Bill Clinton

because he's been pretty controversial.

I also reckon that you needed a politician with

a reasonably long political life.

OK, Abi says George W Bush, Arminel says it's Bill Clinton.

What do you contestants think? Lock in your answers.

So, Bronwyn and Sarah have gone with Bill Clinton,

Barry's out on his own with George W Bush.

Let's see who's right.

George W it is! So, well done, Barry.

Other entries in the top ten of most edited Wikipedia pages

are Jesus and Barack Obama.

£200 then to you, Barry, well done. Here's the third question.

Peter and Anisha.

Peter?

I chose a Labrador because I know the Guide Dogs For The Blind

keep breeding loads of Labradors

and sometimes they don't become guide dogs.

And so, I thought Labradors because there's millions of them.

Anisha?

Well, I don't really like dogs. I'm more of a cat woman myself.

Although my cat is so rude that she's lucky she has a house!

LAUGHTER

So, I actually went for the Corgi.

Mainly being because that the Queen's dog

and I know that loads of Corgis

came about because of the Queen, so, yeah, that's what I went for.

All right, Peter, you say it's a Labrador.

Anisha, you say it's the Corgi.

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

All three of you going with Labrador.

Have you got the right kind of dog, then?

Labrador it is, well done.

Jack Russells came second,

but Labradors are a very fine dog.

I always say to my family, you can have any dog you like

as long as it's black and it's a Labrador.

All right, OK.

So, £200 to all of you. Well done. Question four now.

Mark and Ken are going to try their hand at this one. Mark?

Well, this takes me back to one of my earliest sporting memories,

which was Daley Thompson, I think probably 1984, at the Olympics,

in all his pomp, with the best short shorts you've ever seen,

most wonderfully trimmed moustache.

-I think... The first event, I think, was the shot put.

-OK.

And Ken.

Well, I ended up going to the Olympic Games,

and there's so much going on,

and it's all going on at the same time.

And I thought, actually,

the 100m because I thought it's a short thing, get it out of the

way, get down to the real business, so I'm going for the 100m.

All right.

Ken says 100m,

Mark says the shot put.

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

What did you come up with?

It's a split verdict, so Sarah and Barry it is the 100m,

Bronwyn is out on her own with the shot put.

Who's right?

100m, it is.

So £200 to Sarah and Barry,

and here is our final question for this round.

We're going to ask Abi and Arminel to have a go at this one. Abi?

I went with Melbourne.

I thought that Sydney would just be quite an obvious choice and I

know that a lot of people like to travel from Sydney to Melbourne

and then actually may think that it's a nicer city to stay in.

I think I've been there before as well when I was quite young,

so I went with Melbourne.

Arminel.

Well, I was less imaginative and went for what Abi thought

was the obvious choice.

I thought it was probably Sydney that was the most populous

Australian city.

Abi is going for Melbourne.

Arminel says it's Sydney.

But, contestants, what do you think?

And let's see.

Two of you came up with Melbourne.

Again, Bronwyn, you're out on your own with Sydney.

You might well be right. Let's have a look.

Sydney it is.

Well done.

So there are 4.9 million people living in Sydney and

just 4 1/2 million living in Melbourne.

It's a lot of difference then.

You're right there, Bronwyn,

well done. And £200 goes into your prize fund.

So that brings us to the end of the main game.

Let's take a look at your totals, shall we?

In the lead is Sarah with £1,400,

followed by Bronwyn with £1,200,

and not far behind, with £1,000, is Barry.

So sadly, Barry, we have to say goodbye to you. Well played.

-Thank you.

-And we're going to give you the red card this time,

-as a referee.

-Quite rightly so.

-You've not done anything wrong. Thanks.

-Thank you very much.

-Well done.

-See you. Bye-bye.

So, Sarah and Bronwyn, you're now going to compete to take home

the money you've earned in our final.

Bronwyn, then, if you win today, how are you going to spend your prize?

We love going on holiday, so I think it will go towards a good holiday.

Who would you go with?

-I'd go with my partner, Trevor.

-And where will you go?

Well, I don't know, really. We've been to quite a lot of places.

We've done South America, North America.

I loved going on a cruise where we went to Oman, Jordan, Egypt...

Sounds like there's nowhere left for you to go, is there?

-Oh, lots and lots of countries, yes.

-Good. All right.

And, Sarah, what do you think you'd do with your winnings?

I would do a similar sort of thing -

I would go on holiday, but I would only go...I would only fly one way.

Cos last summer I flew out to Italy one way.

I had no idea who I was going to meet,

no idea what I was really going to do.

and I ended up teaching English

to kids, which was so much fun.

And I definitely learned the value of a one-way plane ticket.

So I'd buy lots of those. And they are, as you know,

half the price of a normal holiday cos you only have to buy one way.

-Yeah, but you have to get back somehow.

-I know.

And that's the exciting bit.

-You could hike, you could...get on a boat. So many options.

-OK.

Well, good luck to you both. Our final is a general knowledge battle.

You get five questions each,

and then whoever gives the most correct answers

takes home the money that they built up so far.

You're not on your own, though.

The Think Tank is still here to help you if they can.

You can pick someone to consult with

before you answer the questions.

Each member can only be picked once.

The difference now, compared with the rest of the show,

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

so they know as little about them as you do.

OK? All right. Let's play the final.

So, Sarah, you built up the most money in the main game,

the final starts with you,

and here is your first question.

Who do you think could help you on that one?

I have an idea of the answer, but I think Anisha might know.

Who's Irish that's an actor? Who would you think, actually?

Cos you thought of someone.

Colin Farrell, I think, rings a bell.

Well, do you mean the hot Colin Farrell?

-Yeah.

-Yeah. Yes!

-That guy.

Yes. That guy. That guy.

As opposed to the cold Colin Farrell?

LAUGHTER

Yeah, hot as in gorgeous Colin.

I agree with you, Sarah, I think that's right.

We'll go with him even if it's not right.

OK. Just cos he's gorgeous.

ANISHA GIGGLES You're saying Colin Farrell

is the Irish actor who appeared in In Bruges and Minority Report.

Are you right?

Yes, you are. Colin Farrell, it is. Well done.

Hot, cold... It doesn't matter, it was the right answer.

Well done. OK, Bronwyn, here is your first question.

Who do you think could help you here?

I'll ask Ken.

Well, yes, I mean, who is just the most amazing lady.

I have actually met her.

-Have you?

-Cos of my social work.

It was her 90th birthday.

Yes, I'll agree with that.

-Her 90th birthday.

-OK.

So you're saying

the Queen celebrated her 90th birthday in 2016?

-Yes.

-All right. Let's see if you got the right number.

90th, it is, well done.

Huge celebration, of course. Did you have a street party,

-go to any celebrations at all?

-No, no.

Just had a quiet day watching television, yes.

-You're taking part, in a sense, doing that.

-Yes.

So, well done. One-all. Sarah, here's your second question.

Football is just absolutely not my subject.

So, who do you think could help you here?

Possibly...Cleve?

Cleve.

It's going to have to be a guess. It's going to have to be a guess.

I'm really sorry about this, I should know. I should know.

Um...

I'm going to take a guess, I'm going to say...

It's a German team, I'm going to say...

Borussia Dortmund.

-What he said.

-LAUGHTER

-Borussia Dortmund, I think, is what he said.

-Yeah.

-Borussia Dortmund is your answer...

-Yes.

..for the football club who lost to Sevilla in the final

of the Europa League

in 2016.

Have you got the right team?

It was Liverpool.

-THINK TANKERS:

-Oh!

You weren't too far off cos Liverpool beat Borussia Dortmund

-in the quarterfinals.

-I saw that!

-OK. All right,

so nothing for you there, Sarah. Bronwyn, you can take the lead

-if you get this answer right.

-OK.

Who do you want to choose now?

I didn't watch that, so...

Who watched it?

-Lucy, did you watch it?

-I didn't watch it.

OK, can we put

our heads together and come up with some likely candidates?

It wasn't somebody like Cumberbatch, was it?

Do you know, he was one in my head,

and also Colin Firth was another one

I was thinking, but then maybe he's a bit more...

No, I don't think Colin Firth.

Well, I don't know.

I'm going to go with Benedict Cumberbatch.

Benedict Cumberbatch

is your answer for the actor who played Richard III in

The Hollow Crown - Wars Of The Roses.

Benedict Cumberbatch, it is!

I wonder where I got that from!

-LUCY AND KEN:

-Well done!

I never saw it, so I don't know how I've got that.

-Anyway...

-Based on Shakespeare's history plays.

Well, you may not have watched it, but, you know,

-memory's a funny thing.

-Yes.

-You had it there,

it just popped out for you nicely. So that's good.

OK, so you are in the lead now.

Two-one to you. Sarah,

this to equalise.

Peter, Mark, Arminel or Abi can help you here.

I will ask for help from Peter.

I've not been to Brazil.

All I know about Brazil is there's lots of Zika

and there's lots of the Olympic Games, Rio. But I keep

hearing the word fallujah, but that sounds like somewhere else.

-It's OK cos I know it.

-You do?

-THEY LAUGH

Um, it's favela. I think I'm saying it right.

-Favela is what you're saying...

-Yeah.

-..is the name

beginning with F given to shantytowns or slum areas

of Brazil? You say favela.

Favela, it is.

-Well done.

-Phew!

-KEN:

-Well done.

So that's two each.

But, Bronwyn, your chance to take the lead again

with your third question.

Just three members of the Think Tank

to go with now.

That would be Abi, Mark and Arminel.

Abi, do you know it? Please.

Who's Dutch who plays tennis?

I can't think of a Dutch player who plays tennis.

What was Andre Agassi? Was he Italian?

No, he came from Las Vegas.

Oh, right. Oh, OK.

I'll pluck a name out of thin air.

You did it last time. Go for it.

I'll say Ivan Lendl, but I think he's Czechoslovakian.

You're saying

Ivan Lendl was the Dutch tennis player

who won men's singles at Wimbledon

in 1996.

Have you got the right person?

-It's Richard Krajicek...

-Never heard of him.

-..we were looking for,

who beat Malivai Washington

-in the final in 1996.

-Right.

So sadly, nothing for you there, I'm afraid. And, Sarah,

this gives you the opportunity, in fact,

to take the lead.

Arminel or Mark can answer this one for you.

Mark, can I have your advice, please?

I've got a feeling you might know this more than me, but I think

this might be one of the few showbiz questions I might actually know.

And I think he was

-husband of Britney Spears.

-Yeah, so do I.

I think that too. We'll go with Britney.

Britney Spears, pretty confident about that.

Kevin Federline, the ex-husband of Britney Spears, you say.

Are you right?

You are indeed. Well done.

-KEN:

-Very good.

So that puts you into the lead at three-two.

Bronwyn, you can equalise here

with your fourth question.

Just Arminel left from the Think Tank to ask.

Do you know this, Arminel?

Pff! Well, first of all, it should be pronounced Porsha,

because he's German, so I'm going to go for a Germanic name.

Do you know?

I think it is either Ferdinand...

Ferdinand Porsche.

If you think it's Ferdinand, then fine,

but he was German, so a German name would be a good thing.

-Is that a German name?

-Yes, Ferdinand is a German name.

-I'll go for Ferdinand.

-So you're saying Ferdinand is

the first name of the man who founded the

FORCES PRONUNCIATION: Porsche Car Company

in 1931.

Have you chosen the right name?

-Yeah, well done!

-Wow!

Ferdinand Porsche, it was.

-So you knew that?

-Something in the back of my mind.

Trevor loves cars and we go looking at cars all the time.

-Trevor is your partner.

-Yeah.

I'm into advanced motors as well, so...

You've got a lot of knowledge in the back of that mind of yours

-there today, haven't you?

-Yeah.

-Fantastic. Well done. OK.

So that makes a score of three-all, coming to our fifth question now.

No Think Tankers left to help you.

You're on your own from here on.

Sarah, your turn.

Cod Wars.

Is that like people going around hitting each other with fish

or stealing each other's fish?

Of course, borders...

An island country...

I mean, Ireland is close.

Oh, it could be Greenland.

But Greenland is not a country.

It was going so well.

Um...

OK, I'm going to have to go with Greenland

even though I don't think it's a country.

You're saying Greenland was the island country with which the

UK had a series of so-called Cod Wars in the 1970s.

Let's see if you have the right place.

Iceland, it was.

Yes, of course.

-A series of disputes over fishing rights, of course.

-Mm.

So sadly,

not the right answer for you. The score is still three-all.

Bronwyn, if you get this question

right, you will be our winner today.

So here is question number five for you.

No idea.

Never read it, never seen the television programmes.

I'll just pick an author. Frederick Forsyth.

Frederick Forsyth, you say, is the author of

A Game Of Thrones.

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

Let's see if you're right.

-It's George RR Martin.

-No.

I wouldn't have known that.

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

so we're going to go to sudden death.

As all the members of the Think Tank have been used up,

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

So here is your next question, Sarah.

Well...

There is Yin Yang, which I know has to do with energy cos it

has the symbol.

I think it has something to do with how each side influences the other.

And that...

I can't think of any other Chinese phrase that could possibly be

the answer, so I'll go with Yin Yang.

OK. You're saying Yin Yang is the system of laws taking its name from

the Chinese for wind and water.

Let's see what the answer is.

-It's feng shui.

-Yeah.

-Which you probably knew, actually,

-didn't you?

-Probably.

Yeah. Bronwyn, then, this is your opportunity to take the lead

and be today's winner.

That would be...Verdi.

You're saying it's Verdi?

Verdi is the composer of the opera

La Traviata is your answer.

If you get this right,

you will be our winner today.

-Oh.

-And go home with a minimum

of £1,200.

So let's see if you are right.

You are indeed, it's Verdi.

Congratulations, Bronwyn,

you are today's winner. Well done.

Well, Sarah, you did ever so well. Fantastic battle. Thanks ever

so much for taking part, and our commiserations.

Sadly, you're not going home with anything apart from the

glorious memory, perhaps, of such an epic contest.

-Thanks so much.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

And, Bronwyn, as our winner,

you're definitely taking home £1,200 as your prize fund.

Shortly, you will 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 on the programme?

And it was...

Ken!

Well done, Ken.

-CLEVE:

-Well done.

So, Bronwyn, you have one more chance, then,

to boost your prize as you face our Question: Impossible.

This is the toughest question of the whole show because no-one in

our Think Tank answered it correctly.

So, Bronwyn, if you can do what none of them could and give us

a correct answer, that extra £1,000 will be yours.

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

While you give that

some serious thought,

let's take a look at the wrong answers the Think Tank gave,

-and that will help you rule a few things out.

-OK.

Here's what they came up with.

Tom Hiddleston, Tom Hollander,

Peter Dinklage, Idris Elba,

Tom Hardy, Danny DeVito,

Eddie Redmayne and Ben Kingsley.

Eight different people they chose

for Rear of the Year in 2015.

It was none of them.

So who do you think it might be?

Well, I'm trying to think of a little actor,

and the one that springs to mind is Warwick Davis.

I'll pick him, Warwick Davis.

Warwick Davis.

He is, indeed, diminutive.

-Yes.

-Is he Rear of the Year, though,

for the year 2015?

SHE GIGGLES Let's have a look.

This, to add an extra £1,000 to your prize fund.

-That would be very nice.

-All right, good luck.

It's Daniel Radcliffe.

Oh!

-Famous for the Harry Potter films.

-Yes.

And that was the answer, I'm afraid.

Warwick Davis, diminutive, certainly, but not Rear of the Year.

-No.

-So you didn't conquer the Question: Impossible.

You're still leaving with £1,200, though.

That will be very nice, thank you very much.

-Enough for a nice holiday with Trevor.

-Yes, thank you.

-Good.

Well, thanks very much for joining us and congratulations.

-Well done, Bronwyn.

-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.

-THINK TANKERS:

-Bye.

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