0:00:02 > 0:00:04The Battle of Hastings.
0:00:04 > 0:00:06The Battle of Trafalgar.
0:00:06 > 0:00:08The Battle of the Bulge.
0:00:08 > 0:00:16These are all titanic struggles, but none compare to the biggest, bravest, baddest battle of all.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19This is the final.
0:00:19 > 0:00:25Eight champions have returned to conquer the course once again, but they are not alone
0:00:25 > 0:00:30because some of the best runners-up are back too. They're all hungry for success and quite hungry too.
0:00:30 > 0:00:35Who will be crowned series champion? Let battle commence!
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Hang on. Who said you could present the show?
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Really?
0:00:53 > 0:00:54Huh!
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hold on. Who at the BBC?
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Get your hairy carcass off my stool!
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Out!
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Today's course is designed for champions.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Starting with the Qualifier, it's tougher.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Double Cross, it's rougher.
0:01:18 > 0:01:23Terror-Go-Round, it's tougher and rougher than the "abover".
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Then the Wipeout Zone and that's another.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29So everything is lined up for a great show.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33The competitors are in tip-top shape. I'm...fair to middling.
0:01:33 > 0:01:38And the Total Wipeout course is... Well, it is just about standing. Don't lean on it.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42Over to champ-baiter Amanda who is at the top of the course.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Joining me now is one of them "championes".
0:01:49 > 0:01:54It's the ever-delightful, the ever-smiling, cute as a button Adam.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58I'll cut to the chase. Is it going to be a repeat performance today?
0:01:58 > 0:02:02I won last time, so I hope to do everything exactly the same.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04So this is Amateur Adam.
0:02:04 > 0:02:09Last time, he turned out to be not so amateur. He was a champion.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Save the drama for your mama. I'm in it to win it!
0:02:12 > 0:02:14OK!
0:02:14 > 0:02:19What, no klaxon? Yeah, let me introduce you to a brand-new obstacle.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21It's the Blob.
0:02:21 > 0:02:27It's big, round and, well, blobby, and completely filled with blubber.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Nice!
0:02:29 > 0:02:33# Beware of the blob, it creeps and leaps... #
0:02:33 > 0:02:39Above the blubbery Blob is that massive barrel and that's all you need to know for now.
0:02:39 > 0:02:44On goes Adam. The game hasn't started yet. He's just getting into position.
0:02:44 > 0:02:51Amateur Adam looking a bit anxious there. I can't wait though. It looks brilliant. What happens?
0:02:51 > 0:02:55- He's only ickle. He's going to go flying.- Oh, I really hope so!
0:02:56 > 0:02:59- Here we go. - KLAXON SOUNDS
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Oh, ho-ho! And there goes Adam.
0:03:04 > 0:03:09Wow! I'm more impressed by that than anything I've ever seen in my life!
0:03:09 > 0:03:13- That is how far I want to go! - Ohhh!- Not now though.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16The clock's started. Adam is acting like he's fine.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20But he is a drama student. Acting is his thing.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22On to the next obstacle.
0:03:25 > 0:03:30It's the Flap Trap. 11 flaps. Some pop open, some don't.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33What could possibly go wrong?
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Adam's up and he's legging it.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Oh, flap-trapped!
0:03:40 > 0:03:45Yeah, the flap just catches his leg which is enough to send him tumbling
0:03:45 > 0:03:48and a face plant into the steps.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50He's up. Here we go again.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Oh, short-lived! Oh! No!
0:03:54 > 0:03:57It's just not fair, is it?
0:03:57 > 0:04:02Remember, you have to be in it to win it. Who said it? Me.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06Adam now faces the classic Sucker Punch.
0:04:06 > 0:04:11If you don't know what the Sucker Punch is, it's a bunch of fists. Classic!
0:04:11 > 0:04:14At least this is an obstacle that Adam is familiar with.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18A face full of green, but he's holding on. Oh, low blow!
0:04:18 > 0:04:20Oh, one to the mug as well!
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Oh, that was thorough.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27OK, the Big Red Balls. He knows the drill.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Four big balls.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33Cross them. Don't fall in the water.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35Easy-peasy, balls are squeezy!
0:04:35 > 0:04:37- OK, here he is.- Come on!
0:04:38 > 0:04:41He's off. Oh, that's good.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43- And again.- Agh!- Oh, what was that?
0:04:43 > 0:04:45He's squealing like a little girl.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49Let's see what was better, the scream or the fall.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Aaaagh!
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Definitely the scream.
0:04:54 > 0:04:59Just one final climb before Amateur Adam has to face the Shapeshifter.
0:04:59 > 0:05:04A circle fits through a circular hole, a square through a square hole,
0:05:04 > 0:05:09a triangle through a triangular hole, but it's not easy to get a person through any hole,
0:05:09 > 0:05:14especially with a boingy launch pad. I'm selling it! It's not my problem. It's Adam's.
0:05:14 > 0:05:19The other problem Adam has is he doesn't know how boingy that trampoline is.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- Agh!- Oh, not as boingy as he expected.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Adam completes the Qualifier in 2 minutes 49. Not bad.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31But is it a champion's time?
0:05:31 > 0:05:36- I think this one is all about fitness.- Yeah, I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of that today.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Right, own up. Who's been feeding Amanda jelly babies?
0:05:42 > 0:05:47You know she's not allowed them when she's working. Look at the state of her!
0:05:47 > 0:05:51I've learnt a lot of stuff from a lot of gymnasts on Total Wipeout,
0:05:51 > 0:05:57- but none have impressed me as much as Jade from South London. Welcome back, Jade.- Thank you very much.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01You've inspired me, Jade. Tell me about your experiences on Wipeout.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04First, I was pulled out by a doctor.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07- First, it was a knee injury. - She's hurt her knee.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12- The second time, I pulled myself out.- Yeah.
0:06:12 > 0:06:17Then at the Last Chance Saloon, she swallowed most of the pool.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21Fingers crossed, I get to the Wipeout Zone and do it right this time.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25Ours are crossed too, Jade, so here we go.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27KLAXON SOUNDS
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Oh, cripes!
0:06:29 > 0:06:32No, it's all right. She's OK.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37Look, we have lift-off. Well, Jade has lift-off.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Thankfully, a soft-ish landing.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Genius, that.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48Jade With One Sock got her original name for having just one sock.
0:06:48 > 0:06:53Now she has two, it's a pointless nickname. She's been flap-trapped!
0:06:53 > 0:06:57Can we have a sock check? Yeah, still two and still in the game.
0:06:57 > 0:07:02- Right in the gob. And again! - It really doesn't like her.- No!
0:07:02 > 0:07:06Still amazingly injury-free, let's hope she can clear the Sucker Punch.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10There's the spray... No, not good. She won't be happy with that.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12- GROWLS - Yeah, I told you.
0:07:12 > 0:07:17Jade is an ex-gymnast, so she'll be amazing on that little trampoline.
0:07:17 > 0:07:23- Get ready for the magic. - Aagh!- Oh, can't look. Can't look!
0:07:23 > 0:07:29She's normally great on a trampoline. Just lacking a sense of direction and a face now!
0:07:29 > 0:07:30Ow!
0:07:31 > 0:07:35Still, 2 minutes 30. She's got to be happy with that.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38That was the worst I've ever done.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40- Oh, clearly I know nothing.- Wow!
0:07:40 > 0:07:46Joining me now once again at the top of the Qualifier is, in his own words, Deadly But Skinny.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49It is little Ben from Fordingbridge in Hampshire.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53- Welcome back, Benny Boy.- Yeah, it's good to be back. About time.
0:07:53 > 0:07:59Remember runner-up Crocodile Ben-Dee, five foot seven of raging man beast?
0:07:59 > 0:08:04He got his name for being a courageous conservationist and because his name is Ben.
0:08:04 > 0:08:10Last time, he did take quite a beating, but he's back and looking cooler than ever.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Yeah, oh! One for the ladies!
0:08:13 > 0:08:15The flyweight is here. Be ready!
0:08:15 > 0:08:18I don't think you could ever be ready for this.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20KLAXON SOUNDS
0:08:20 > 0:08:23I'll never tire of watching this.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26It's just... What a dude!
0:08:26 > 0:08:31Check out that 360 helipop, whatever that is. Look at that!
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Crocodile Ben-Dee takes on the Flap Trap.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Oh, Flap Trap wins!
0:08:38 > 0:08:43Time for Crocodile Ben-Dee to regain that credibility he deserves
0:08:43 > 0:08:45on the Big Balls.
0:08:45 > 0:08:50Oh, promising. Pretty good. No chance...at all.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55And Ben makes it home in 2 minutes 33.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Ow!
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Wow! Who's this fella?
0:09:00 > 0:09:03The Boy Basher? Odd name for a geezer!
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Oh, it's runner-up Chaz Van Damme.
0:09:06 > 0:09:12She's not a man. Sorry. Last time she beat all the boys and made it through to an all-girl Wipeout Zone.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16The Boy Basher is back to beat the Balls and bash in those blokes!
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Steady there, Chazzer.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Here we go. I love this bit.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- KLAXON - This is my new favourite thing in the world!
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Wow! Ha-ha!
0:09:28 > 0:09:31- It just never becomes not funny.- No.
0:09:31 > 0:09:36It's true, it's not much fun for Chaz Van Damme though, but look at that!
0:09:38 > 0:09:42Not one person has made it through the Flap Traps unscathed today.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Oh! And no change there.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Oh, the Boy Basher's got bashed!
0:09:46 > 0:09:51On to the Big Balls. Let's remind ourselves of how good Chaz was last time.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54The answer is not very at all, really.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57And this time, yes, yes...
0:09:57 > 0:09:58Ye-e-es.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Oh, still, yes... No!
0:10:01 > 0:10:07Chaz Van Damme does some pretty impressive flipping in the air, but all in vain. Still gets wet.
0:10:07 > 0:10:13Last time, she mastered the Shapeshifter, but can she repeat her success?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Let's find out. Here we go.
0:10:18 > 0:10:19Disaster!
0:10:20 > 0:10:24Someone's going to be walking funny for months.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26I am, just from watching it!
0:10:26 > 0:10:27Oh!
0:10:28 > 0:10:322 minutes 18 - the Boy Basher completes the course full of energy.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Yeah!
0:10:35 > 0:10:37I know how those guys must feel.
0:10:37 > 0:10:43I've never run the Total Wipeout course, but last year I entered the Ketford Paint-A-Gnome competition.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47And I came second... to Nigel Cumberdale!
0:10:47 > 0:10:52Anyway, today, the Total Wipeout runners-up have the chance to wreak their revenge
0:10:52 > 0:10:54on those who beat them before.
0:10:54 > 0:11:00Unlike me. I can't believe they banned me. There was no evidence that I broke Nigel's gnome.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Although I did.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04I hate Nigel Cumberdale!
0:11:04 > 0:11:10Welcome back returning champ and brilliant Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonator, Arnie-ish Ashley.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Get to the chopper now. These men are trying to kill us.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15It's like he's here(!)
0:11:15 > 0:11:20Ashley beat his rival Alan and he was very modest about it.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23I won! Oh, yeah!
0:11:23 > 0:11:28The competition was tough last time, but the competition today is going to be even fiercer.
0:11:28 > 0:11:33- What have you been doing to make yourself fierce? - I've been doing cage-fighting.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Wow! Rock-hard!
0:11:35 > 0:11:39Oh, yeah, not quite what I pictured. If you were a budgie maybe...
0:11:39 > 0:11:42# Thanks for making me a fighter... #
0:11:42 > 0:11:46- But that's just for Alan. - What, to impress Alan?
0:11:46 > 0:11:52No, just in case he wants to start something. I know he's on my back, hunting me down on the course.
0:11:52 > 0:11:56And this is that Alan, the prison manager who lost out to Ashley.
0:11:56 > 0:12:01Ashley, you're going down, son! I'm going to lock you up and throw away the key!
0:12:01 > 0:12:05Are they allowed to do that? Probably not. No, there's laws.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07I'm getting old. And I'm warm.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12Arnie-ish Ashley heads to the Flap Traps.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Come on, Mr Cool.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21I can't say I wasn't expecting that to happen.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25But it is a quick recovery and that counts here. Oh, he's slipped!
0:12:25 > 0:12:29I wonder if he'll get hit by... Yeah, he did. Fell in.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33How does that compare to Bendy Alan? He doesn't quite have the speed.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36- Agh!- But he's got a lot further than Ashley.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38He just needs to get out now.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42Ah! I think he's having a senior moment.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Compose yourself, man. Come on.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51It's Ashley against the Sucker Punch for a second time.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55No, he hasn't got any better at it. No.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58Alan eventually found his way out.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01Time now to show Ash what he's made of.
0:13:01 > 0:13:07Covered in mud! It doesn't matter what you're made of when you get a blow like that to the "shawshanks"!
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Here's Ashley and making pretty good time. The Big Red Balls.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17One, two, three...and four?
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Oh, is this today's first Ball Crossing?
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Yes, he's done it!
0:13:24 > 0:13:27- That is cool.- That is very cool.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Now to end this run in style on the Shapeshifter, takes his time,
0:13:31 > 0:13:35on to the trampoline, steadies himself...
0:13:36 > 0:13:39Going for the leap. He's made it into the circle.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43- And straight out to the finish.- Yes!
0:13:43 > 0:13:46- 2 minutes 9 seconds. - Yes!- What a champ!
0:13:46 > 0:13:47Whoo!
0:13:48 > 0:13:52They do say revenge is sweet and here's Alan's chance to prove it.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55Yeah! Come on!
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Oh... Oh! Oh, not so sweet.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00More sour and bruising. Never mind.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04# Why did you do that thing to me? #
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- Bad luck, Bendy. Beaten again.- Yeah!
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Time for the first champions' leaderboard.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13That puts Arnie-ish Ashley at the top of the board
0:14:13 > 0:14:17with Chaz Van Damme and Bendy Alan catching up behind.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20There's not much between Just Jade and Crocodile Ben-Dee
0:14:20 > 0:14:24and Amateur Adam is currently at the bottom of the list.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27Whoever this is, they've lost their horse. Clearly.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31Wait a minute, all that tweed, it can only be Non Toff William.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Not only was William champion at his show,
0:14:34 > 0:14:37but he also had a blistering Qualifier run
0:14:37 > 0:14:41and set the fastest time this series.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45A spiffing 1 minute 2 seconds and he didn't even get his tweed wet!
0:14:45 > 0:14:48This shouldn't take too long. See you in a minute.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50DOGS BARKING
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Let's see if he can break another record here.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57Like last time, Non Toff William looking good on the Sucker Punch
0:14:57 > 0:14:59and flying across it.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03Yes, he's doing it. I'm going to run.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07Yeah, he's across. This could be another flawless Qualifier.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09I'll put money on it.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15I didn't have a chance to get my wallet out.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18He's made one mistake, but that'll be it.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21He is a record-holder, so he'll live up to that.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24There you go. Oh, perfect landing! Oh!
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Oh!
0:15:26 > 0:15:28This isn't turning out so well.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30No. Oh...
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- Ohhh!- Ooh!
0:15:32 > 0:15:36Non Toff William finishes in 2 minutes 4 seconds
0:15:36 > 0:15:40which, sadly, isn't a record. All bets are off.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42A bit slower that time.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44That should make this girl happy.
0:15:44 > 0:15:50Runner-up to William last time round, it's Freya, a night-club bouncer and an expert in capoeira.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53- Hi, Freya.- Hello. - Freya, I know you love winning,
0:15:53 > 0:15:59- but victory was not yours the last time. What went wrong? - Will was on my show.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02You are William, the Total Wipeout Champion.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Freya, I'm sorry, my love.
0:16:05 > 0:16:10What are you going to do to beat William who was a record-breaker the last time?
0:16:10 > 0:16:13I think I've got to not fall off things this time.
0:16:13 > 0:16:17- That is generally the idea.- I'm a bouncer and I'm back to beat the boy.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19By "boy", I think she means William.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22- OK, here she goes. - KLAXON
0:16:23 > 0:16:25And the bouncer gets bounced!
0:16:27 > 0:16:33Oh, must be some sort of capoeira move thing going on there without wires or anything. Brilliant!
0:16:33 > 0:16:38Freya is out of the water and heading for the Flap Traps. Here we go.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Oh, no, flapped! Into the mud!
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Bouncing to the Big Balls...
0:16:44 > 0:16:49Oh, a stumble. Oh, surprisingly little bouncing there.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51- Unusual.- So close.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55But Freya is on for a quick time. Just the Shapeshifter to go.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00She didn't even try to bounce there. Just fell in!
0:17:00 > 0:17:02What was that?
0:17:02 > 0:17:06It doesn't matter. She finishes in 1 minute 54. She beat William
0:17:06 > 0:17:08and has the fastest time so far.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Next, it's Champion Bunny Boy Daniel, a boy with some moves.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15I think these are some of them.
0:17:15 > 0:17:20The people's B-Boy Thugs Bunny. If you don't know, now you know.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23How could I forget? Last time, Daniel danced his way to victory
0:17:23 > 0:17:27in the Wipeout Zone, but it won't be as easy this time
0:17:27 > 0:17:29because this is the final, isn't it?
0:17:29 > 0:17:32He's running.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35He's clearing... Oh, he's down on the Flap Traps.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44Can Daniel bust some more sweet moves on the Balls?
0:17:46 > 0:17:49Right... Oh! I don't know what you'd call that move.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52# Dance while the record spins... #
0:17:52 > 0:17:55I'd say rubber burn with a mouthful of water to finish.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00- LOUD BURP - Ever the gent(!)
0:18:02 > 0:18:06Here are Jolly Hockey Nix and High Kia, two very tough ladies.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11Jolly Hockey Nix was one of the rare lady champions.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14- It's Nix!- Well done. - And so was High Kia.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17The Total Wipeout Champion tonight is Kia!
0:18:17 > 0:18:19So two champion champettes.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Who will be the champettist... I wish I hadn't started that.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Let's get on with this. Nix preparing for departure. Here we go.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30- Aaaagh!- Oh, face first!
0:18:30 > 0:18:34Nix begins with a bit of air cycling. Look at that, yeah.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37And then rounds it off with an aquatic face plant.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41Apparently, it's like hitting concrete at that speed. Now Kia...
0:18:41 > 0:18:47- The Total Wipeout Queen is back and I'm going to bring my pow-power attack!- I don't know what that is.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49- KLAXON - It doesn't matter.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Maybe that's it. Brilliant whatever.
0:18:52 > 0:18:53Legs a-flailing.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Some more first-class mid-air cycling.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59I think there's a kind of salute in there as well.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Right, on to the Sucker Punch.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05Nix didn't get far last time.
0:19:05 > 0:19:09Surely she can improve on what happened then. Yes... No.
0:19:09 > 0:19:13Same place, in fact. Yeah, there it is.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16There it was. Now for the Big Balls.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20Look what Nix did last time!
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Yes, and what a dive!
0:19:22 > 0:19:25What will she do for us this time?
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Yeah, what a dive!
0:19:31 > 0:19:33She's nothing if not consistent.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35Yeah, look at that.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Anyway, here comes trampoline coach Kia.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Up the steps, she charges the Balls.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- Aagh!- And cannons straight off them.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51Nevertheless, High Kia is quick here.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54On to the Shapeshifter.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57And she jumps... into the bit between the shapes.
0:19:57 > 0:20:02She's the trampoline coach. There's no hope for the rest of them!
0:20:02 > 0:20:06Nix is having fun on the trampoline and she's in the square.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10Just about managing to stay in and upright. Full rotation complete.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16Yeah, she leaps...
0:20:16 > 0:20:19And she's in. How did that happen?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Oh, like that. She missed the landing.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25High Kia finishes in bang on 2 minutes.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Whilst Jolly Hockey Nix is 29 seconds slower
0:20:28 > 0:20:33and loses the battle of the champettes. Still a good time.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36Now, as this is the climax of the whole series,
0:20:36 > 0:20:40I decided to order in a brand-new, special champions' trophy.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43Here it is. I'll bring it closer.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47Yeah, I know, it is small, but it's made of solid gold.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50Oh, I've dropped it. Nobody move. Hold on.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52- LOUD CRUNCH - Ah, trodden on it!
0:20:52 > 0:20:58I'm not sure that was solid gold, anyway. Let's go back to using the normal one. I preferred it.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01It cost nearly ten quid!
0:21:01 > 0:21:07Remember Dunking Clare, the former runner-up? She's about to get properly dunked.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11Yeah, here we go. Yes, there you are.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Check out that air dancing. Yeah!
0:21:13 > 0:21:17I'm going to slam-dunk myself round this course!
0:21:17 > 0:21:22Last time, Clare did do some slamming and then some dunking, so what about this time?
0:21:22 > 0:21:26- Aaagh!- Wham! - # Why don't you use it? #
0:21:26 > 0:21:30- What a whammer! - # Try not to bruise it... #
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Look, it's Full House Chris.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37And he's about to go on the Big Red Balls.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Head first. Wham again!
0:21:40 > 0:21:42Another massive whammer!
0:21:42 > 0:21:44# Buy time, don't lose it... #
0:21:44 > 0:21:48Now runner-up Ma-Gonna Cheryl, as flexible as Madonna, see?
0:21:50 > 0:21:56Last time, Cheryl face-planted the Shapeshifter, so she'll want to avoid doing that again.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59# Every little thing the reflex does... #
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Wham, right on the face!
0:22:03 > 0:22:06She's taking whamming to a whole new level.
0:22:08 > 0:22:12And then there's teacher Daniel. Sweet moves.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16Last time, he got through the Shapeshifter. Right through it.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21This time...let's see.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Oh, another whammer! Yeah.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30I could just watch people whamming all day.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32There you go!
0:22:33 > 0:22:38Well done to the whammers. You did whamming proud.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Full house!
0:22:41 > 0:22:45So let's see how that changes this champions' leaderboard.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47# The reflex, flex-flex-flex... #
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Amazingly, 15 runners have now run
0:22:49 > 0:22:52and they're all within a minute of one another.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Daniel the teacher tops the board.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57Cheryl sits in fourth, followed by Will and Ashley.
0:22:57 > 0:23:02Only seconds between Full House Chris, Daniel and Chaz Van Damme.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04With only 12 qualifying,
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Clare, Alan and Nicola are all looking vulnerable.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09Now look who it is!
0:23:11 > 0:23:14- Ciao, bella!- Yeah, bonjour.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17It's Last Chance Saloon champ Riccardo Charlardo.
0:23:17 > 0:23:21Got his name from being joined at the hip to girlfriend Charlotte.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23Not any more though. She's not here.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27My name is Riccardo, not Charlardo!
0:23:27 > 0:23:30Riccardo, the Italiano! How about a little international competition?
0:23:30 > 0:23:33P-P-Polish power is back!
0:23:33 > 0:23:37Great timing. This snazzy dresser is Tomasz the Tank Top, so called
0:23:37 > 0:23:40because of his penchant for sleeveless tops.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44He's another champ and ten grand buys a lot of tank tops.
0:23:45 > 0:23:50The two nations are about to go head-to-head - Italia versus Polski.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57Spiky and crazy, Tomasz from Poland is back!
0:23:57 > 0:24:00Speaking his native Dutch, I presume(!) Here we go.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03- Aaaaagh!- Oh!
0:24:03 > 0:24:06That wasn't elegant, really.
0:24:06 > 0:24:11Although croupier Tomasz does look a bit more elegant in slow motion. See, almost!
0:24:11 > 0:24:14There's a kind of "dance-ly" quality to it.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19The Pole's out of the water and about to meet the flaps.
0:24:20 > 0:24:21Oh!
0:24:21 > 0:24:25Well held. Oh, less so that time.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27And that's ruined the hair.
0:24:28 > 0:24:33Riccardo representing Italy, though he's a fire-fighter from Essex.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37Oh, taking the Sucker Punch in his stride.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39Come on, Riccardo.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42- Oh!- Yes!- Yes!
0:24:42 > 0:24:44On to the Big-a Red-a Ball-as.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47Last time, uno, due, "tres".
0:24:47 > 0:24:49I've no idea what "four" is.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Can he make it across this time?
0:24:53 > 0:24:58Oh, oh, encore! That means "same again" in Italian(!)
0:24:58 > 0:25:00# I've just made
0:25:00 > 0:25:03# The same mistake
0:25:03 > 0:25:05# Again... #
0:25:05 > 0:25:08But how will the Pole fare on the Balls? For Poland, Tomasz.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11For Queen and country. Do they have a queen?
0:25:11 > 0:25:15# With a rebel yell, she cried "more, more, more"... #
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Wow!
0:25:19 > 0:25:22There is nothing to choose between these two right now.
0:25:22 > 0:25:27To the Shapeshifter then. Oh, he's making a good time.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32Oh! I think he might have cracked his Krakow there.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35You see, it's an international joke.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41So Riccardo brings Italy home in 1 minute 53.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Yeah, bad luck, Poland.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48Know what it goes to show you? You don't need a girlfriend to be quick.
0:25:48 > 0:25:53You don't need girls, you don't need girls. You need girls a little bit.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Yeah, well rescued.
0:25:55 > 0:26:00This is runner-up Rock God Jon. You remember him, right? Yeah, can't forget him.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05# Rock'n'ro-o-o-oll! #
0:26:05 > 0:26:08Joining me now is the lovely Jon from Liverpool.
0:26:08 > 0:26:13Or should I say... # Joining me now is Jon from Liverpool, he's gonna rock'n'roll today! #
0:26:13 > 0:26:17- Hi, Jon.- No reason for me to be here now. You've taken my bit.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23Some things have changed. You're not screaming. You're wearing hot pants.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27Yeah, Jon there putting the hot in hot pants.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31He's rocking that look. Yes, some long socks would have finished it off.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35Time to take this course seriously. Yeah, right!
0:26:35 > 0:26:37Yeow!
0:26:37 > 0:26:41So the noisy, leathered-up Jon approaches the Flap Traps.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43- Aagh!- Oh, ho-ho-ho!
0:26:45 > 0:26:49Jon now rocking on to the Sucker Punch.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52Knock-knock-knocking on heaven's door. Well, Jon's face.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57He's across though. Nearly.
0:26:57 > 0:27:03Jon rocked and rolled with the punches. Pretty good effort and he made it across.
0:27:03 > 0:27:08Nearly. This is looking quick as Jon heads to the final obstacle.
0:27:08 > 0:27:12Not even the sodden pants are holding him back.
0:27:12 > 0:27:13Wow!
0:27:15 > 0:27:20He barely touched the sides. Look at that!
0:27:20 > 0:27:22He did touch the water a bit though.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24Rock God Jon makes it to the finish
0:27:24 > 0:27:28in a lightning-fast 1 minute 49 seconds.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31- Rock'n'roll!- Fastest so far today.
0:27:31 > 0:27:35# We are the champions No time... #
0:27:35 > 0:27:38Not yet, Jon. There's still another contestant.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42- # I am the champion... # - Jon... Will somebody tell him?
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Anyone? All right, I'll do it.
0:27:45 > 0:27:50As I was trying to say to Jon, there is still one contestant left.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53It's not often I resort to being physical,
0:27:53 > 0:27:58but there was a real danger that he'd launch into Bohemian Rhapsody next and that lasts for hours.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01And to be honest, Jon's singing is a bit painful.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06Oh, that's disgusting!
0:28:06 > 0:28:08The rock shorts... No!
0:28:09 > 0:28:15This is one fella I'm pleased to see back. Remember runner-up Leo the leader?
0:28:15 > 0:28:18In his last outing to Argentina, Leo was fastest in the Qualifier
0:28:18 > 0:28:25and first across Double Cross and Terror-GoRound, but was pipped at the post in the Wipeout Zone.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Leo from London joins me now and, you remember, Leo is deaf,
0:28:28 > 0:28:33so Phil, who didn't make the final the last time, has come back to help me out.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35Now, are you feeling lucky, Leo?
0:28:40 > 0:28:43Fingers crossed, hopefully, yes.
0:28:45 > 0:28:49Last time, Leo came second and now he wants to be number one.
0:28:49 > 0:28:54- He's the bookies' favourite.- Carer Leo is up and on to the pontoons
0:28:54 > 0:28:58and this 30-year-old is looking like he means business today.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01He's fast, but not fast enough to outfox the flaps.
0:29:01 > 0:29:06He runs fast, he falls fast, but he gets back up again really, really fast.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08Second attempt.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Oh, flapped again!
0:29:10 > 0:29:13That's not stopping him. Leo attacks the Sucker Punch.
0:29:15 > 0:29:19Oh, great dive! Really making the most of the mud.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23Big Balls now and only one finalist has made it across so far today.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26Can Leo double the stats?
0:29:28 > 0:29:33No. No, he can't, but a very enthusiastic sideways dive. Neat.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35Yes. Hello! Goodbye.
0:29:35 > 0:29:39Still, Leo's looking very quick as he approaches the Shapeshifter.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44He's going in one...
0:29:44 > 0:29:46and he's gone into the water. Ah.
0:29:46 > 0:29:50Risky tactic. Current fastest John got one minute 49.
0:29:50 > 0:29:54Looks like Leo might beat him. Come on. Come on!
0:29:54 > 0:29:59He's done it! Leo tops the qualifier leaderboard again!
0:29:59 > 0:30:04So Leo the Leader is leading from the start with Jon and Riccardo hot on his heels.
0:30:04 > 0:30:09Remarkably, with a time of just two minutes, High Kia is down in sixth!
0:30:09 > 0:30:15Record-breaking Will is eighth and tied at the bottom are Bunny Boy Daniel and Chris.
0:30:15 > 0:30:21Incredibly, just 34 seconds separate the top 12. Everyone is going for it today.
0:30:21 > 0:30:25Now today's competition has been especially tough,
0:30:25 > 0:30:31so even people with incredibly fast times weren't fast enough to make it through to the next round.
0:30:31 > 0:30:35That was sincere. I'm quite good at doing sincere.
0:30:35 > 0:30:39- BURP - Sorry. Time to say goodbye.
0:30:39 > 0:30:43# Every time you go away
0:30:45 > 0:30:48# You take a piece of me with you
0:30:50 > 0:30:54# Every time you go away
0:30:56 > 0:30:59# You take a piece of me with you... #
0:31:15 > 0:31:19As this is the final and a very special occasion,
0:31:19 > 0:31:24it's a good time to introduce the limited-edition Total Wipeout Sticker Album.
0:31:24 > 0:31:29It's so limited, there's only one because I made it myself.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33You can make one at home, too... cos I'm not making any more.
0:31:33 > 0:31:37It's good, though. I made the stickers. Here's how you make it.
0:31:37 > 0:31:43You get all the bits together, be really enthusiastic for a few minutes and then give up.
0:31:43 > 0:31:49Anyway, it's now time for Double Cross. Wait a minute. Who am I going to do swapsies with?
0:31:56 > 0:32:01They've all been here before, so they know what they're facing. It doesn't make it easier.
0:32:01 > 0:32:06Four gangways. Three green, one red. Get to the centre by a green one,
0:32:06 > 0:32:12exit and finish by the red gangway. Make it over without slipping, tripping or being knocked off.
0:32:12 > 0:32:18Only the first six over will make it through and be closer to victory.
0:32:18 > 0:32:22In qualifying order first, it's Leo the Leader.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25# That's when she fell for... #
0:32:25 > 0:32:29"I beat all the young ones last time and I will beat them all again."
0:32:29 > 0:32:32Second fastest was Rock God Jon.
0:32:32 > 0:32:38You may be a king or the old Grim Reaper, but sooner or later you're hit by the sweeper!
0:32:38 > 0:32:43Put it in a song, Jon. Then it's Riccardo the Italiano.
0:32:43 > 0:32:48And Teacher Dan. Followed by Freya in fifth.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51Leo, you're going down!
0:32:51 > 0:32:55Yeah, Leo doesn't think so.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58Sixth fastest in the qualifier, it's High Kia.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02- Make way for the Queen! - Very regal.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05Next it's Cheryl and Non-Toff Will.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08This toff won't be falling off!
0:33:08 > 0:33:10Classy rhyming there. A cut above.
0:33:10 > 0:33:15Ninth, tenth and eleventh fastest, it's Arnie-ish Ashley,
0:33:15 > 0:33:17Tomasz from Poland
0:33:17 > 0:33:18and...
0:33:18 > 0:33:22- Woo-hoo! - Bunny Boy Daniel.
0:33:22 > 0:33:28- Lastly, it's Full House Chris. - Who said you could eat MY cookies? - Silly, silly man.
0:33:28 > 0:33:34That's the final 12, all of whom are soaking wet already because it is chucking it down.
0:33:34 > 0:33:3812 desperate contestants plus one mahoosive machine
0:33:38 > 0:33:44divided by lots of people splashing equals a Double Cross they'll never forget.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46Plus a fraction of giggling from me.
0:33:46 > 0:33:51- Are you all ready?- YES! - You do the maths. Three...
0:33:51 > 0:33:53two...one!
0:33:53 > 0:34:00So this final edition of Double Cross begins. Who will be the first to take that leap of faith?
0:34:01 > 0:34:06It's Freya! And Riccardo! Both down, double drop.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09Cheryl. No, no.
0:34:09 > 0:34:13Arnie-ish Ashley...mind the sweeper! Who's that?
0:34:13 > 0:34:17- It's Leo and he's in the middle! - Come on!- Needs to wait for an exit.
0:34:17 > 0:34:22And he's joined by William. Careful...! He's on.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24Riccardo - can he?
0:34:24 > 0:34:27Yes, he can. Three on the middle now.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32Ash wants to join, too. No, not this time.
0:34:32 > 0:34:37Got knocked by that giant sweeper again. Painful. It is wet up there.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42Tomasz goes... and he's down already.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44This is not easy today.
0:34:44 > 0:34:48See? Leo's taking a chance. He's jumping.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50And...oh, no! Followed by William.
0:34:50 > 0:34:55Oh! He's down as well and badly bruised, I imagine.
0:34:55 > 0:35:00Leo, brave enough to take a chance, but got clipped by the sweeper. William was so close!
0:35:00 > 0:35:04Riccardo on his own. He goes for it and jumps...
0:35:04 > 0:35:08off. This game is anybody's. Maybe it's Freya's.
0:35:08 > 0:35:13She's onto the middle. Nice and steady. Jon staggers...
0:35:13 > 0:35:18Oh, he grabs the sweeper. He manages to stay on. Kia - no.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20Crashes hard into the side.
0:35:20 > 0:35:24Jon makes a run for it and jumps...
0:35:24 > 0:35:31too soon. Cheryl and Chris join Freya in the middle,
0:35:31 > 0:35:35but she's now on the red gangway and in the water. Hang on, Kia's out.
0:35:35 > 0:35:39Oh, no. Kia is hurt. I think she's hurt her leg.
0:35:39 > 0:35:46She'll be unable to continue now. A sad end to Kia's challenge.
0:35:46 > 0:35:51That means there are now only 11 contestants left in the game, four of whom are in the middle.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53Make that five.
0:35:53 > 0:35:59No, because off goes Chris... and faceplants the podium. May have broken it, and his face.
0:35:59 > 0:36:03Thank goodness it's foam-padded.
0:36:03 > 0:36:04Oh!
0:36:04 > 0:36:07Still, he has left a space in that centre,
0:36:07 > 0:36:11which is quickly filled by Bunny Boy Daniel.
0:36:11 > 0:36:15Jon now takes a chance. Runs, leaps and lands it!
0:36:15 > 0:36:17Jon is through.
0:36:17 > 0:36:22- Rock on, dude! - Yeah! Jon rocks into the next round.
0:36:24 > 0:36:26Right, who's next?
0:36:26 > 0:36:30Not you. Maybe Arnie-ish Ashley. No!
0:36:30 > 0:36:34Another podium faceplant! Here's Riccardo.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36Will he or won't he? Oh...
0:36:39 > 0:36:42Yes, he will!
0:36:42 > 0:36:45- Yes!- Yes! Get in... to the next round.
0:36:45 > 0:36:49Well done. Two places gone, four to go.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52Everything at stake here.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55Bunny Boy Daniel determined to make it across,
0:36:55 > 0:36:58but slips...! No grip.
0:36:58 > 0:37:04The rain really not helping those finalists. But that doesn't stop Chris. He's in the middle.
0:37:04 > 0:37:06Come on. Somebody help him!
0:37:09 > 0:37:12- He can't keep that up.- Legs 11.
0:37:12 > 0:37:16He's just being spun around helplessly by the sweeper arm.
0:37:16 > 0:37:19Not any more, though. It had to end.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22Here's Leo! Great finish! Stylish slide.
0:37:22 > 0:37:28That is three through to the next round. And they're all drenched!
0:37:29 > 0:37:32- Here's Daniel.- Oh, no!
0:37:32 > 0:37:36No! He saw that one coming, but clearly wasn't prepared for it.
0:37:36 > 0:37:43Probably worse when you know what's about to happen. Cheryl is back and joining the boys.
0:37:43 > 0:37:47And so is Dan again, looking a bit damp.
0:37:47 > 0:37:52Ashley's turn. Can he stay out of the...water?
0:37:52 > 0:37:53No.
0:37:53 > 0:37:58- There goes Non-Toff William. Oh! That was quick!- Yes!
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Will is through.
0:38:00 > 0:38:03And a very skiddy dismount.
0:38:03 > 0:38:07Will did very well to control that slide onto the podium.
0:38:07 > 0:38:12Could have gone wrong. Just two places left for the next round.
0:38:12 > 0:38:16Who will it be? Freya or Tomasz from Poland?
0:38:16 > 0:38:19Full-House Chris or Bunny Boy Daniel?
0:38:19 > 0:38:22Arnie-ish Ashley?
0:38:22 > 0:38:28Ma-Gonna Cheryl or Teacher Dan who is preparing for a charge, I think. Yeah.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32That didn't work out so well. Bunny Boy Dan is going for it...!
0:38:32 > 0:38:37And he is across Double Cross. That is five through.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41Brrrip! Brrrip! Brrrup!
0:38:41 > 0:38:45So now the pressure's really on. Only one place left.
0:38:45 > 0:38:50- Freya is running for it. She's down!- Oh!
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Clipped at the last second.
0:38:53 > 0:38:54Ow!
0:38:59 > 0:39:04Daniel trying to get to the middle again and this time he's done it.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07Hang on, he's just kept going. No!
0:39:08 > 0:39:11Brave try. Tension is high now.
0:39:11 > 0:39:16Cheryl's dashing and down! And here comes Tomasz...
0:39:16 > 0:39:21- Could it be Poland?!- Yes! That's the final six Double Crossers.
0:39:21 > 0:39:26And Tomasz joins Jon, Riccardo, Leo, Will and Dan in the next round.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32And we have a Terror-Go-Round!
0:39:34 > 0:39:40But for the other finalists, their chance of becoming series champion has gone.
0:39:42 > 0:39:46I did a leap and it all went wrong. I fell off.
0:39:46 > 0:39:50I'm glad I went out through an injury rather than giving up.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54I had a prime opportunity to get the sixth place.
0:39:54 > 0:39:58Obviously it would be great to get further,
0:39:58 > 0:40:00but I leave with my head held high.
0:40:00 > 0:40:07I came pretty close, I think, but not close enough. I think the boys just got the better of me.
0:40:07 > 0:40:11Sorry to let the side down, especially us 40-year-old women.
0:40:11 > 0:40:15But I just had the best time, so I don't care!
0:40:16 > 0:40:20I can't believe it. Well disappointed. It was harsh.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22Flopped it. Gutting.
0:40:22 > 0:40:29I'm absolutely devastated. I actually thought I'd get through this round. It wasn't to be.
0:40:29 > 0:40:30Gutted.
0:40:32 > 0:40:37Well, this is getting very tense now. It's the penultimate round of the final,
0:40:37 > 0:40:42which means it's time for Terror-Go-Round! I haven't got that.
0:40:42 > 0:40:47Most annoying. I've also lost my Amanda sticker and I keep sticking them in the wrong places.
0:40:47 > 0:40:52This collection is not going well. I hope yours is going better.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54But on with Terror-Go-Round.
0:41:02 > 0:41:07Terror-Go-Round! Part merry-go-round and part terrifying obstacle.
0:41:07 > 0:41:12Contestants must run on that fast, revolving turntable, avoiding the projectiles chucked down at them
0:41:12 > 0:41:14and the spinning fingers of fate.
0:41:14 > 0:41:21There are three heats. The last person still on their feet after each one goes through to the final.
0:41:21 > 0:41:26Six start, but only three will progress. Which three will they be?
0:41:26 > 0:41:33The stakes have been raised. There's so much to lose and I don't mean an arm or a leg.
0:41:33 > 0:41:36It's Terror-Go-Round. Are you all ready?
0:41:36 > 0:41:38UNENTHUSIASTIC: Yeah.
0:41:38 > 0:41:44Silence is golden. Three! Two! One!
0:41:44 > 0:41:46KLAXON SOUNDS
0:41:46 > 0:41:50The Terror Twins are looking mean and moody.
0:41:50 > 0:41:55They're ready to chuck some suitcases at the finalists below.
0:41:57 > 0:41:59Champions to the slaughter.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02What a line-up it is.
0:42:02 > 0:42:08There's Non-Toff William, a champion and a record holder.
0:42:12 > 0:42:16- Ciao, bella!- Then there's Riccardo. He won the last-chance saloon.
0:42:16 > 0:42:20Bunny Boy Daniel has body-popped his way to victory before.
0:42:20 > 0:42:23- Woo-hoo!- Can he do it again?
0:42:23 > 0:42:28Rock God Jon was a runner-up last time, but was first over Double Cross today.
0:42:29 > 0:42:36Leo the Leader, fastest in today's qualifier and he'll need to be fast to go one better than last time.
0:42:40 > 0:42:47- Polish Power is back! - And Tomasz from Poland comes from Poland and is also a champ.
0:42:47 > 0:42:51OK, so Heat One begins. Unleash the luggage!
0:42:51 > 0:42:56The competitors already taking a pelting from above. The Terror Twins lobbing gear with some vigour.
0:42:56 > 0:42:58HORN SOUNDS
0:42:58 > 0:43:03That noise means the Fickle Fingers of Fate are now spinning.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06And Riccardo is out already!
0:43:06 > 0:43:08Just couldn't get over that finger.
0:43:09 > 0:43:12Which means five left in.
0:43:12 > 0:43:16Oh, Will took a knock there. He's back up.
0:43:20 > 0:43:26Devastating accuracy there. A sombrero perfectly placed on Tomasz's head. Well done!
0:43:27 > 0:43:31The Fingers come round again, but everyone's getting over them.
0:43:31 > 0:43:34A wobble from Jon, but all survive.
0:43:34 > 0:43:37Looking pretty chaotic...
0:43:37 > 0:43:41Oh, Leo's fallen, but he gets back to his feet.
0:43:41 > 0:43:44This is getting messy.
0:43:44 > 0:43:46Brrrip! Brrrip!
0:43:47 > 0:43:51Hold on. That's two out. Who were they?
0:43:51 > 0:43:56Tomasz slides under the punch bags and then Jon ends up in the water.
0:43:59 > 0:44:02Now Leo is struggling, too.
0:44:02 > 0:44:07Ah...no, he's out. Just Bunny Boy Daniel and Non-Toff William left standing.
0:44:07 > 0:44:11Well dodged. Will clipped by the Finger,
0:44:11 > 0:44:13but gets back up.
0:44:15 > 0:44:20Both taken out now, but they are being very resilient. Both down!
0:44:20 > 0:44:23Dan's under the punch bags, as is Will!
0:44:23 > 0:44:29So who was the last man standing? That's close. Over to Amanda to reveal the result.
0:44:29 > 0:44:34You know the rules. It's the last man standing who gets through.
0:44:34 > 0:44:37And the last man standing...
0:44:37 > 0:44:39was...
0:44:40 > 0:44:42William!
0:44:45 > 0:44:52Well, they both fell at the same time, but Dan hit the deck first, making Will the winner.
0:44:52 > 0:44:57Heat Two and the Terror Twins have restocked on travel paraphernalia.
0:45:01 > 0:45:04Oh! A big, black case hits Tomasz.
0:45:04 > 0:45:06A little green case misses Riccardo.
0:45:08 > 0:45:14- There's a lot at stake. - And in a moment those Fickle Fingers will spin once again.
0:45:14 > 0:45:19Here they come. Jon's tripped before the Fingers got close.
0:45:19 > 0:45:21And he's out! So, too, is Riccardo.
0:45:21 > 0:45:27Absolute chaos. Riccardo was out first in Heat One and he's out early again.
0:45:27 > 0:45:31Leo's down and Tomasz is still running, just about. Dan's up.
0:45:33 > 0:45:35And down again.
0:45:35 > 0:45:39Bunny Boy Daniel hops off the Terror-Go-Round.
0:45:39 > 0:45:41Aaargh!
0:45:42 > 0:45:46So it's Leo versus Tomasz for a place in the Wipeout Zone.
0:45:48 > 0:45:52- They're really got it in for Tomasz. - They certainly have.
0:45:53 > 0:45:56Tomasz is over. So is Leo.
0:45:56 > 0:45:58They've both gone!
0:45:58 > 0:46:06- I don't believe it!- That was another ridiculously close finish. Over to Amanda for the final verdict.
0:46:08 > 0:46:15Well, boys, another incredible round. The second contestant in the Wipeout Zone is...
0:46:16 > 0:46:18Leo!
0:46:18 > 0:46:20# The leader of the pack! #
0:46:20 > 0:46:22Good luck.
0:46:22 > 0:46:26By staying on his feet that moment longer than Tomasz,
0:46:26 > 0:46:29Leo is now through to the Wipeout Zone.
0:46:29 > 0:46:35Final heat. Final chance for Riccardo, Jon, Tomasz and Dan to land a place in the final.
0:46:35 > 0:46:43Because these challengers are a bit too good, the Terror Twins have put some bricks in those cases.
0:46:43 > 0:46:45The Fickle Fingers are imminent.
0:46:47 > 0:46:50Who's this an impression of?
0:46:50 > 0:46:52That'd be Tomasz.
0:46:54 > 0:46:59And now they're spinning. Competitors stumbling.
0:46:59 > 0:47:04The left luggage flying, but all four contestants still in.
0:47:09 > 0:47:11Nothing's getting these boys down.
0:47:12 > 0:47:16Jon and Dan stumble, but both get back up.
0:47:18 > 0:47:25Dan is down again! And he won't be getting up from that. It's bye-bye to a very upset Bunny Boy.
0:47:25 > 0:47:29His bid to become series champion is over.
0:47:30 > 0:47:34Riccardo versus Tomasz versus Jon. And Jon's down again...
0:47:34 > 0:47:36but back up again.
0:47:38 > 0:47:44- Oh! He IS gone!- The Rock God is finally rocked by a family-sized case and a big Fickle Finger!
0:47:49 > 0:47:53Now Tomasz is hit. Riccardo swept away. Both through the punch bags!
0:47:53 > 0:47:56Another close finish.
0:47:58 > 0:48:00Yes!
0:48:03 > 0:48:05Yes!
0:48:05 > 0:48:10Riccardo finally realises that it's him who's completing the line-up.
0:48:10 > 0:48:14Riccardo, Leo and Will are going to do battle in the Wipeout Zone,
0:48:14 > 0:48:22- which sadly means Rock God Jon has played his final encore. - Rock and ro-o-o-o-oll!
0:48:22 > 0:48:27It's goodbye in Polish to Tomasz from Poland.
0:48:27 > 0:48:32And Bunny Boy Dan has busted his last move.
0:48:33 > 0:48:39Across the course of this series, there have been eight shows, each with 20 contestants.
0:48:39 > 0:48:43That means in all there have been... Hang on, I'm doing the maths here.
0:48:43 > 0:48:48Computing...computing... Actually, that's quite a hard sum.
0:48:48 > 0:48:52Roughly, there have been somewhere between 20 contestants
0:48:52 > 0:48:59and 36,000 contestants. And out of all of those, it's now down to the best three.
0:48:59 > 0:49:03They are literally the best of the best, the cream of the crop.
0:49:03 > 0:49:08Well, not literally. They're people, not cream. Or a crop.
0:49:08 > 0:49:10But they are very, very good.
0:49:10 > 0:49:15The Total Wipeout course is like nothing else.
0:49:15 > 0:49:18To find myself in the last three, it hasn't kicked in yet.
0:49:18 > 0:49:24Being a firefighter can be scary, but Total Wipeout is terrifying.
0:49:24 > 0:49:27The pressure in these games is just immense.
0:49:28 > 0:49:33He's more nervous than last time, but it's such an amazing experience.
0:49:33 > 0:49:38- Leo!- He's so pleased he's got to the final. He's over the moon.
0:49:45 > 0:49:50It's so intense. Emotionally, mentally and physically.
0:49:50 > 0:49:54I'm broken, I'm knackered...!
0:49:54 > 0:50:00He's enjoyed all of it. He'd love to do it all again and again and never stop.
0:50:00 > 0:50:07Leo, yeah, what a guy. I mean, he's incredible. He's definitely the athlete of the pack.
0:50:07 > 0:50:13He doesn't give up. He gets knocked down, he gets back up again. He'll be good. You can see it in his eyes.
0:50:13 > 0:50:19He's here to show the world what deaf and disabled people can do.
0:50:19 > 0:50:24The pressure's definitely on. I'm not sure I coped too well in the qualifier.
0:50:24 > 0:50:29- Will is so determined. - Last time he broke all the records.
0:50:29 > 0:50:35Yeah, Riccardo is a great guy. He's brilliant. He'd be a very worthy winner.
0:50:35 > 0:50:40It would nice to be champion of champions. That's a good title to have.
0:50:40 > 0:50:47I have so much respect for the other two competitors. They'll have to get past me. I'll give it everything.
0:50:47 > 0:50:51That's his dream - to lift the trophy.
0:50:51 > 0:50:53The others have, so it's your turn.
0:51:01 > 0:51:05It's here. It's big. It's the final Wipeout Zone.
0:51:08 > 0:51:14What a series final this is set to be. We've got William, a Wipeout record holder.
0:51:14 > 0:51:19Leo, one of the most remarkable contestants to grace this course.
0:51:19 > 0:51:24And Riccardo, who rode his luck in the last-chance saloon and won.
0:51:24 > 0:51:26Riccardo is the first to brave it.
0:51:28 > 0:51:33Doing it for Italy, Essex and girlfriend Charlotte, it's Riccardo.
0:51:35 > 0:51:38Get my ten grand ready!
0:51:38 > 0:51:42Riccardo's double or quits Wipeout Zone begins.
0:51:46 > 0:51:51If you think about it, it's double or just not double.
0:51:51 > 0:51:54Riccardo is off.
0:51:54 > 0:51:58Off and swimming. First stop, the rapid climb. As a firefighter,
0:51:58 > 0:52:03Riccardo is used to handling water. Maybe not like this, but he's on.
0:52:03 > 0:52:07He's got 10 seconds before a tidal wave is unleashed. Not a problem.
0:52:07 > 0:52:11He just flew up that ramp. Moves across
0:52:11 > 0:52:14to the see-saw of truth now. Again, swift progress.
0:52:14 > 0:52:18Slight hesitation at the tipping point, but safely over.
0:52:18 > 0:52:21Come on, Riccardo! You know what to do.
0:52:21 > 0:52:26He certainly does. Last time around, he did this in two, with a duck.
0:52:26 > 0:52:28Deja vu. There's the duck.
0:52:28 > 0:52:32Not sure if that was a slip or intentional. He's getting up.
0:52:32 > 0:52:35He is up and onto the podiums now.
0:52:35 > 0:52:40And comfortably-ish across. The final obstacle now.
0:52:41 > 0:52:43Go, Riccardo, go!
0:52:43 > 0:52:46He's doing it. This is so fast. Just one more jump...
0:52:46 > 0:52:49He's on! Press the button!
0:52:49 > 0:52:52One minute ten. That is very fast.
0:52:53 > 0:52:56- Get in!- Yes!
0:52:56 > 0:53:02Riccardo gave a Wipeout Zone masterclass there. The fastest time we've seen this series.
0:53:02 > 0:53:04Superb.
0:53:04 > 0:53:09I tell you what, the Essex boy done good! That was brilliant.
0:53:09 > 0:53:13- Was it quick?- Listen, for a living, you put out fires,
0:53:13 > 0:53:19- but you've just extinguished that course in one minute and 10 seconds! - Yeah!
0:53:20 > 0:53:26Listen, yours is a brilliant time and the time to beat, but Leo's up next. Let's watch.
0:53:28 > 0:53:32Leo the Leader now with his attempt to become Leo the Winner.
0:53:34 > 0:53:37That's, "Good luck, me!"
0:53:42 > 0:53:48Before even hitting the water, Leo had that next obstacle locked in his sights.
0:53:48 > 0:53:50That's one almighty exit.
0:53:50 > 0:53:56Yeah, this is one almighty final. The Rapid Climb - getting on is hard enough,
0:53:56 > 0:53:58but that's actually the easy bit.
0:53:58 > 0:54:0110-second countdown starts now.
0:54:01 > 0:54:04And Leo's beaten it easily.
0:54:04 > 0:54:06Fast.
0:54:06 > 0:54:09OK, see-saw, then.
0:54:09 > 0:54:12Taking a sideways approach to the tip.
0:54:12 > 0:54:14It works and he's over.
0:54:14 > 0:54:19Neck and neck right now, not that Leo knows how Riccardo did.
0:54:20 > 0:54:22The Crazy Sweeper. An early duck.
0:54:22 > 0:54:26Quickly back up and running. Oh, ducks again!
0:54:26 > 0:54:31Now for the final push. A fall here could be disastrous.
0:54:31 > 0:54:34- Come on, Leo! Yes!- Ohhh!
0:54:34 > 0:54:38This is too close to call. Leo's made the pillars.
0:54:39 > 0:54:42One jump left...!
0:54:42 > 0:54:47Nearly there. Whoa! One second faster than Riccardo!
0:54:51 > 0:54:57Leo's run was almost a carbon copy of Riccardo's, but crucially one second faster.
0:54:57 > 0:55:03My goodness! My man, that was absolutely amazing.
0:55:03 > 0:55:08Guys, I knew that tonight was going to be a really close final,
0:55:08 > 0:55:12but I didn't even realise how close.
0:55:12 > 0:55:16There is one second between you two.
0:55:16 > 0:55:18One.
0:55:20 > 0:55:22Leo, you were faster!
0:55:23 > 0:55:24Yes!
0:55:24 > 0:55:27I'm sorry, my man.
0:55:27 > 0:55:29Hard luck.
0:55:29 > 0:55:32Well done, mate. One second!
0:55:32 > 0:55:34You were quick, man.
0:55:34 > 0:55:39Absolutely unbelievable. How are you feeling?
0:55:39 > 0:55:42Yeah? One second.
0:55:42 > 0:55:46Amazing performance, Leo, but William is up next. Let's watch.
0:55:49 > 0:55:55So Will's got one heck of a challenge on his hands now, not that he knows it. What a final!
0:55:55 > 0:56:00- Fingers crossed! - You'll need more than that, Will.
0:56:00 > 0:56:02Game on!
0:56:02 > 0:56:09And this is it. The final Wipeout Zone run of the series and what a contestant to be doing it.
0:56:09 > 0:56:11And he's out.
0:56:11 > 0:56:15I love this guy. Rapid Climb. The other two beat the tidal wave.
0:56:15 > 0:56:18Can Will make it three now?
0:56:18 > 0:56:22Oh... He's up. Taking it in his stride.
0:56:22 > 0:56:27Looking strong... and he's made it.
0:56:27 > 0:56:31Wow! Moving across to the See-saw of Truth.
0:56:32 > 0:56:38Balance. Steady. Tip. Once again, safely across.
0:56:38 > 0:56:40He's good, he's good.
0:56:40 > 0:56:44This is Will's chance to gain a second or two on Leo's time.
0:56:44 > 0:56:49Can he do it in one now? Looks like he's going for it. A big risk!
0:56:49 > 0:56:51Oh! Very close!
0:56:51 > 0:56:55Turntable one, turntable two, turntable three!
0:56:55 > 0:56:59This is unbelievable! 58 seconds!
0:56:59 > 0:57:02That equals the all-time record.
0:57:02 > 0:57:05I am speechless! Wow!
0:57:05 > 0:57:11Non-Toff William has broken the mythical one-minute barrier on the Wipeout Zone,
0:57:11 > 0:57:16equalling the all-time best. No minutes and 58 seconds. What a man!
0:57:16 > 0:57:19Well, well, well. How are you feeling, my man?
0:57:19 > 0:57:23- Fantastic. Unbelievable. - You're not even out of breath.
0:57:23 > 0:57:31- I got lucky.- OK, William, I have got to tell you Leo was amazingly fast here tonight.
0:57:31 > 0:57:35But as you both know, this is the series final.
0:57:35 > 0:57:40And it was always going to be a close one. I am so proud to announce
0:57:40 > 0:57:44that the Total Wipeout Series Champion...
0:57:46 > 0:57:48is William!
0:57:48 > 0:57:50Hard luck, Leo.
0:57:50 > 0:57:52Well done. Well done.
0:57:55 > 0:57:59So William Parry, the 21-year-old Oxford graduate from Hampshire,
0:57:59 > 0:58:06adds the title of Total Wipeout Champion to Sir, Baron, Captain and lots of other ones he probably has.
0:58:07 > 0:58:14But Leo and Riccardo don't go home empty-handed. I'm proud to present them with one of these
0:58:14 > 0:58:18limited-edition Richard Hammond clock plates.
0:58:18 > 0:58:24That's something they can cherish for the rest of their lives. Though the battery will need changing.
0:58:24 > 0:58:28And don't eat off it. Anyway, it's ten past three.
0:58:28 > 0:58:34Well done to all of our finalists. We'll see you next time for something different, but familiar.
0:58:34 > 0:58:38Until then, from Amanda and me and all of the finalists, goodbye.
