0:05:03 > 0:05:06Are you? Do you live near Oxford anyway?
0:05:06 > 0:05:10I'm originally from Yorkshire, so about two-and-a-half hours away.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12You don't sound as if you're from Yorkshire.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16- I seem to have lost my accent somewhat at university.- Somewhat?
0:05:16 > 0:05:17- Yeah.- Even completely.
0:05:17 > 0:05:18Yes.
0:05:18 > 0:05:23So, how would you say, "I've got a bath in my house,
0:05:23 > 0:05:27"and I've got grass outside of my house"?
0:05:27 > 0:05:31- I've got a "ba'th" in my house... - Oh, you said "ba'th", didn't you?!
0:05:31 > 0:05:33You've got me thinking about accents now.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37- So you used to say "ba'th"? - Probably, back when I used to live in Doncaster.
0:05:37 > 0:05:42What do you think it's done for you, to stop saying "ba'th" and start saying "baath"?
0:05:42 > 0:05:46I don't know, really. I get ridiculed when I go back home for my accent,
0:05:46 > 0:05:51and the southerners ridiculed me for having a northern accent, so it's a no-win situation.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53- And what are you studying?- Law.

0:05:58 > 0:06:02- And a good lawyer can do absolutely any sort of work.- Definitely.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11- Yes.- OK. And you're going to be defending Nellie's hairdresser.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14- Yes.- How would you do that?
0:06:14 > 0:06:18I'd probably urge Nellie to plead guilty, actually.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22- Unfortunately, the evidence... - I don't understand that. Why?
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Well, the evidence unfortunately in that round...
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- No - her hair, we're talking about. - Oh, Nellie's hair.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32- I think it takes years off you, Nellie. Definitely.- Thank you!
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- Why Nellie?- There's such little to go on in the first round,
0:06:35 > 0:06:40and Nellie got the only question wrong out of everybody, so... sorry, Nellie.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43- Where are you from, Steve? - Liverpool, Anne.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45And what do you do?

0:06:48 > 0:06:49- I'm not a builder.- No.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53I lead a team of engineers and designers.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55- Are you an engineer? - I'm not an engineer, no!
0:06:55 > 0:06:58What are you? Let's cut to the chase, Steve.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00My degree is in biomedical science.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Is it? That's a bit uppity for Liverpool.
0:07:02 > 0:07:07I was fortunate. I did do an access course, so I did it the hard way.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09Did you? That's no excuse.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14So day to day...how do you make our lives different, Steve?
0:07:14 > 0:07:19- Er...well, we build sewage treatment works, and clean water treatment works...- Fabulous.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22- There's clean water in Liverpool, is there?- There is.
0:07:22 > 0:07:23Why Nellie?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26Nellie got the only question wrong in the round.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28What do you do, Anthony?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30I fit bathrooms and kitchens, Anne.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32- Do you?- Yes. - Are you qualified to do that?
0:07:32 > 0:07:34I...have a geography degree.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Are you qualified to fit bathrooms and kitchens?
0:07:37 > 0:07:40I've learnt my trade since I started working.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43- And how long has that been? - About two-and-a-half years.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- For what company? - For my brother's company.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50So anyone who had a kitchen fitted in, say, early 2006...
0:07:50 > 0:07:52I've had no complaints yet, Anne.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- All the lavatories flush, do they? - They do. Yes.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57And which do you fit first, the kitchen or the loo?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Do you want the cup of tea first
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- or do you want to use the loo? - You can put the kettle anywhere.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- And you can tile a bathroom? - I can, if you want me to tile your bathroom.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09No, I don't want you to tile my bathroom. Why Nellie?
0:08:09 > 0:08:13I think she was the only person to get a question wrong in that round.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Nellie! You are the weakest link. Goodbye.
0:08:26 > 0:08:31It was a unanimous decision, because I'd actually got the question wrong.
0:08:31 > 0:08:36Something about champagne, and I've never drunk it. I don't know why they call it shampoo.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39I'll remember that for the rest of my time.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Round Two. In the bank, £1,000.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45Ten seconds off your time.
