0:06:41 > 0:06:45- It can be.- So how would I know which mop to use?
0:06:45 > 0:06:49You'd pick the correct colour. For you, Anne, we'd have a red mop. Red is danger.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Is a red mop for the floor?
0:06:51 > 0:06:54A red mop would be for toilet areas, Anne.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Eurgh. Why Mandy?
0:06:57 > 0:07:00A difficult round. Everybody got their questions right.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23Oh, you're worth a few bob, then?
0:07:23 > 0:07:25No, it's all a big overdraft.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Where do you go for entertainment?
0:07:27 > 0:07:32- I suppose you go to Blackpool? - Occasionally. You can have a good blowout in Blackpool.
0:07:32 > 0:07:33What is a blowout?
0:07:33 > 0:07:39Um, a knees-up. Perhaps a cup of tea and a mince pie or something like that.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42- And you do it with Mrs Terry, do you?- Susan, yeah, I do.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Can you entertain Susan at home?

0:07:46 > 0:07:49I did sing really badly once in a competition.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Good, perfect. Put your board down.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56Move towards Sarah. What are you going to sing for us, Terry?

0:08:03 > 0:08:04# He put it in his sack
0:08:04 > 0:08:07# A-bright and early next morning
0:08:07 > 0:08:10# He brought my letter back #
0:08:10 > 0:08:12And you have to come in and say...
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Move back.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Put your board up.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Why Mandy?
0:08:17 > 0:08:22Everybody got the questions right, and right in my face.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Mandy, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35I don't know if the team has lost a good player because I've gone.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39It's hard to say cos we all got our questions right so far,
0:08:39 > 0:08:41so we're all as good as each other.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Round Two. In the bank, £1,000.
