0:00:03 > 0:00:06Ernest Shackleton. Scott of the Antarctic.
0:00:06 > 0:00:09And Rio, the coach driver from Kent.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12All three are intrepid explorers of frozen worlds
0:00:12 > 0:00:16but only one is about to tackle the Winter Wipeout course.
0:00:16 > 0:00:20Only one stands a chance of winning the £10,000 prize.
0:00:20 > 0:00:25And only one will take on 19 other hopefuls on today's show.
0:00:25 > 0:00:28No, it's not Scott of the Antarctic. It's Rio.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let the Wintry Wipeout begin.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Welcome to Winter Wipeout.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38I was very excited this morning because I got a fax.
0:00:38 > 0:00:42Have you seen one of these? It's very modern. I've got a cassette player, too.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46Anyway, this fax says that tonight's show is top secret.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49So secret that I've been banned from reading this out.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51In fact, I've been banned from reading it at all.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54So, how do I know what's in it? I don't.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56This is getting confusing.
0:00:56 > 0:01:00Here's what's coming up on tonight's show. Am I allowed to say that?
0:01:00 > 0:01:02The Qualifier.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Please, let me look.
0:01:04 > 0:01:05Ski Lift.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07What's going on behind there?
0:01:07 > 0:01:08Winter Blunderland.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10Oh, this isn't fair.
0:01:10 > 0:01:11And the Wipeout Zone.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Looks like it might be really exciting.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Good news.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19I have received clearance to reveal two pieces of information
0:01:19 > 0:01:22about this secret edition of Winter Wipeout.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27One, Amanda Byram's at the top of the course.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Two, she's with today's first contestant.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35I didn't see that coming.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45With me now is a lady who already has experience of long cold winters,
0:01:45 > 0:01:49blizzards, snowdrifts and temperatures of minus 25 degrees.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52I did not realise the weather was that bad in Wolverhampton, Maria.
0:01:52 > 0:01:53Oh, Amanda, please, don't?
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Well, you do have the warm hat and you've obviously got the accent,
0:01:57 > 0:01:59can you do any Russian dancing?
0:01:59 > 0:02:01SPEAKS RUSSIAN You what?
0:02:03 > 0:02:05SINGS IN RUSSIAN
0:02:13 > 0:02:16And this how we keep warm in...
0:02:16 > 0:02:19I love it. But doesn't it get faster and faster and faster?
0:02:21 > 0:02:24Oh, Amanda, please, don't.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28Oh, go on. Come on, Maria, ready, ready.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Yeah.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Boys, watch out, game is on.
0:02:39 > 0:02:44I'm Maria and I will be rushing through this course in no time.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48Maria's 30 and a steel sales executive.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52She's made of steel, well that might help her with today's first obstacle.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56It's new. It's terrifying. It's an instant classic.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57Introducing, the Winter Blob.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01The contestants must make their way to the launch position.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03There she goes.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07OK, I've just been told this isn't the good bit.
0:03:07 > 0:03:12Once there, that huge drum, they call it El Gordo, is released and then, well, something happens.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Woooaaahhhhhhhh!
0:03:27 > 0:03:30That is brilliant.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Look at that. I can't see enough of this.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37There's the BAFTA for Best Entertainment, right there, in the bag.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Coming from Russia, Maria is used to temperatures of minus 25
0:03:45 > 0:03:50so the Winter Wipeout ice bath should be a doddle.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Splash down complete, it's a swim to dry land,
0:03:53 > 0:03:57which is, sort of that way.
0:03:57 > 0:04:02Only the fastest 12 will qualify for the next round so she does need to be quick.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04- That's it, Maria.- Come on, Maria.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06Come on, Maria.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Come on, Maria.
0:04:08 > 0:04:13Although the next obstacle has a habit of slowing people down, it's Granny's House.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16I wonder what treats Granny has in store today?
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Come on, Maria.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21I wonder if Granny's got a chicken Kiev in the oven?
0:04:21 > 0:04:24No, probably not that. It's that.
0:04:24 > 0:04:25Ohh.
0:04:25 > 0:04:30Now, that is a treat. It's a door in the face.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35- A quick swim.- Oh, Maria.
0:04:35 > 0:04:41Now, Maria must climb up the stairs for a second helping of Granny.
0:04:41 > 0:04:47Come on, Maria, mind Tevez. Good. No, not good.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Maria enters tough guy competitions.
0:04:49 > 0:04:54Unfortunately for her, so does Granny. UK champ over 70s.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58Now, Maria needs to wade as quickly as her Muscovite legs can carry her
0:04:58 > 0:05:01to the reclaimed Soviet-era Travelator.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05Destination? Big Red communist party balls.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Come on Maria, Taking a run up. Oh, this is confidence. And a bounce.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Oh, right in the Gulag.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14What is a Gulag? Anyway, that was in it.
0:05:14 > 0:05:19The clock is still ticking as Maria Malinka heads to the final obstacle,
0:05:19 > 0:05:21the Log Jam.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23If you'll excuse the technical jargon,
0:05:23 > 0:05:27it's two wobbly bits with a spinny thing in between.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31Prepares for launch. Safe landing.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36I'm not certain that's helping, anybody.
0:05:40 > 0:05:41Oh, no.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45So, Maria Malinka adopts the familiar swimming method to the stairs
0:05:45 > 0:05:48and the finish podium in a rather good three minutes and six seconds.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51That is now the time to beat.
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Maria, you certainly were rushing around that course.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59That was fantastic.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10Took the words right out of my mouth. I understood, I didn't need it written down.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Next to run today's wintry qualifier is 63-year-old Eamonn,
0:06:13 > 0:06:17a play development officer from Belfast.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Eamonn, how are you doing?
0:06:20 > 0:06:23All the better for seeing you, oh, you're just so gorgeous.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26You're more beautiful in real life than I could possibly imagine.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30I don't know what to say right now, I'm completely flattered. Luck of the Irish be with you.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32Thank you.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35The slick old charmer. Works though.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39Is this actually safe for a man of Eamonn's age?
0:06:39 > 0:06:40No.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42I don't think he enjoyed that.
0:06:42 > 0:06:48I'm going to call that method the Ulster cartwheel. Spectacular.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- I love watching other people do that.- Diddley-i-di-i.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55Not that.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Granny's house now for Eamonn O'Cartwheel. Here we go.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00No. No, really just, no.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Oh, Eamonn is taking a beating.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08He's a leaping leprechaun.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10That'll cheer him up, Amanda, well done.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Eamonn onto the Log Jam.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17- Irish jig.- Getting jiggled. Onto the second Log.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Here we go, one leap.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23Oops.
0:07:23 > 0:07:28And Eamonn O'Cartwheel climbs to the finish in a very respectable three minutes 32.
0:07:28 > 0:07:32Over to Eamonn for some post-run analysis.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35Go on, spit it out.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40- I think I need to spit. - Don't spit it out.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43This is 26-year-old floral designer, Rhoxan.
0:07:43 > 0:07:48There she is, redesigning some flowers. Well done.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52I think she's pleased with that.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Oooh, not so pleased now.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Rhoxan's favourite flowers are peonies and lavender.
0:08:01 > 0:08:06I'm more of a gypsophilia man myself. I just like the colour.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Here she is at Granny's house.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14The first floral designer ever to visit.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Come on, Rhoxan.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Oh no.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22Gathering herself for a final assault on the Log Jam. Here we go.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24Lovely knee-slide.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29Hard to say for sure, but I think she's enjoying herself.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35Yes!
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Blooming Rhoxan comes home in three minutes 51.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43This is 28-year-old DIY store worker Mark.
0:08:43 > 0:08:47No, he's not a massive walking magnet, Mark collects keyrings.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50I have no idea how he got through the airport scanner.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53There'll be an investigation, I imagine, it must have shown up.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Ahhhh.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- Hi, Mark.- Hiya, Amanda. How are you?
0:08:59 > 0:09:03I'm really good thanks. Mark, I've got to ask you about your attire.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05What is going on with this T-shirt?
0:09:05 > 0:09:10Keyrings. I've collected them for about 20 years now.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13How many have you got?
0:09:13 > 0:09:15I've got well over 2,000.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18Is this going to be the key to your success, Mark?
0:09:18 > 0:09:20I think so, definitely.
0:09:20 > 0:09:26I hope to get all the way through, that's what I'm going to do and nobody's going to stop me.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30I'm Keyring Mark and I'm going to run rings around this course.
0:09:30 > 0:09:35Well, good luck Mark, fingers are crossed for the keyring enthusiast. Here we go. Waiting...
0:09:35 > 0:09:38Ooh, he's about to make his mark on the qualifier!
0:09:38 > 0:09:43No choice in this next bit. Yes! Look at that!
0:09:43 > 0:09:48If you watch carefully, look, he's frozen in midair. You see.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Oh, that's magnificent. If Mark wins Winter Wipeout
0:09:51 > 0:09:56he's going to use the prize money to build his own obstacle course. I'd advise against.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59- Ow! Ow! Ow!- Oh!
0:09:59 > 0:10:03No, scratch that, he'll need the money to put his leg back on the right way round.
0:10:04 > 0:10:10Granny delivering quite a beating to Mark there, keyrings or not.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14Log jam now and Mark is looking pretty quick, actually.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Onto the first, good start.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Careful... Steady...
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Come on Mark!
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Oh... It's getting quite jiggly.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32Here we go, onto the second log!
0:10:32 > 0:10:35No! He's immediately off the second log! Oh!
0:10:35 > 0:10:38# Ring a ling a ling ling, Ring a ling a ling ling... #
0:10:38 > 0:10:43Ring a ling a ling ling, indeed.
0:10:44 > 0:10:49And Mark earns himself a commemorative keyring as he climbs to the finish in 3:12.
0:10:49 > 0:10:53- That is worth a dance. - Made his mark on the qualifier.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Oh, that's good.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00Now that is good roboting.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03The look on his face says it all. That's probably the best one yet.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06This is Hannah.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10She's not a Mathlete because that job does not exist. She's a maths teacher.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14Maths is really hard, Hannah. But so is the Winter Wipeout qualifiers.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18I've calculated every angle. I've worked out the trajectory of jumping.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21Yeah, I'm good at maths, me.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Here we go.
0:11:26 > 0:11:32- That was one serious equation! - Time for a maths-related replay.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34There you see, the oil drum fall like that.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38This drum's velocity plus mass equals lots of flips and a splash.
0:11:38 > 0:11:43You see, maths can be fun! That's a parabola, I don't know. Is that an umbrella?
0:11:43 > 0:11:47Hannah Mathematic climbs up to the log jam. What's the square root of shattered?
0:11:47 > 0:11:50That's what she is right now. Here we go.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Oh, made that look easy. Hang on...
0:11:53 > 0:11:56And... and - no! No! Forgot to carry the two.
0:11:56 > 0:12:01But this is fast. 2:44, the quickest so far today.
0:12:03 > 0:12:09This is Kent coach driver Rio and he's got a special skill. No clues yet.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13It could be that. Is it? No. No.
0:12:13 > 0:12:19- # My name is Rio and I'm dancing in the sand... # - No, it's not that either.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Now Rio, you do look like a fun, happy guy.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26- Do you have some fun, happy hobbies? - Yes. I am secretly a dancer.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29- No, like dancing as a hobby. - What kind of dancer are you?
0:12:29 > 0:12:33I can do a face dance, jiggling my belly dance.
0:12:33 > 0:12:38- Hang on, a face dance? - Yeah, it's like a funny random face. - Let me see.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Like that. Scary face!
0:12:47 > 0:12:52- Good luck out there. - Even though I've only heard of face dancing, I think I'm a fan.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55Here we go!
0:12:56 > 0:13:01# I'm learning to fly
0:13:01 > 0:13:03# But I ain't got wings
0:13:05 > 0:13:08# Coming down
0:13:08 > 0:13:11# Is the hardest thing... #
0:13:11 > 0:13:16Whilst Rio makes his way to granny's house, there is just time for a face dance intermission.
0:13:16 > 0:13:20Ah, that's good work. I'm not sure, I think that's a face rumba, is it?
0:13:20 > 0:13:26Very classical. Right, face dancer takes on face smasher.
0:13:26 > 0:13:35Oh, yeah! A shoulder full of pie followed by a face full of door. Double whammy. Yes.
0:13:35 > 0:13:40Well, I do see a few of those face dances going on there.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Yeah, that was good.
0:13:43 > 0:13:48- Stop it now. - Just four of the special moves.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51Rio to the log jam. No face dancing here.
0:13:51 > 0:13:55Probably saving up for a big facey finish. Here we go.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- Oh, fast. Ow! Oh!- Drive it on home.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10- This is close now.- Come on Rio!
0:14:10 > 0:14:14Oh, yes! Must have a spectacular face move for that.
0:14:14 > 0:14:19Oh. Hannah Mathematic tops the first Snowboard,
0:14:19 > 0:14:22with Maria Malinka and Ringkeeper Mark in second and third.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23Face Dancer Rio is fourth,
0:14:23 > 0:14:27Eamonn O'Cartwheel's fifth and Blooming Rhoxan sixth.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31But with 14 contestants still to come, that could change.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35Michael is next. He's from North London and he's an IT project manager.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39And I bet at office Christmas parties he's fun.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43Ooh! So what kind of fancy moves do you have in general in life?
0:14:43 > 0:14:46Well, I can jerk.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Good for you.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51Wooh!
0:14:51 > 0:14:55Right, here we go, settle down.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Oh-hoh! For a big chap, Michael has certainly got some air!
0:14:58 > 0:15:03What do they put in that barrel? It's... There he is! Aw!
0:15:05 > 0:15:07Now Michael's quite a mover, according to Michael.
0:15:07 > 0:15:12Can he shimmy past granny's house? Can he? Oh... Oh, double pie!
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Ah, you see, there's the dummy.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18And then follows up with the real thing! Yeah!
0:15:20 > 0:15:26Oh dear. So, a brief splash and up the steps for round two.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30Look out for Tevez the dog. Oh, did I mention the door?
0:15:30 > 0:15:32I didn't. Look out for the... Too late.
0:15:32 > 0:15:37Sweet moves though, looking good, up until that point.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41OK, smooth mover Mike to the big red balls.
0:15:41 > 0:15:46- He's going for it, he's going for it! - Oh! Ow!
0:15:46 > 0:15:50- Mmm.- Oh!- Mm. Eee! Ooh! Yeah.
0:15:50 > 0:15:55Launched himself off the Travelator into a midair split on ball two.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59You see, that had to have hurt a bit.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Yeah, I think it did.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04Sadly, Michael did himself a mischief.
0:16:04 > 0:16:09Which is just a nice way of saying it really hurt! He had to withdraw from the competition.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13Now I am no doctor. But here's my diagnosis. Jerking strain.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Perhaps the course will be kinder to a trained athlete.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20Well, here she is. This is Mica, a star athlete from Wales.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Mica can run 100 metres in 11.8 seconds.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27So by that reckoning, this will be a 25-second qualifier.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30I'm a sprinter and these are my tracks, all you men better watch your backs.
0:16:30 > 0:16:35She is a bit meek, is Mica. But never fear, this human dynamo means business.
0:16:35 > 0:16:40Here we go. It says here she doesn't like getting her hair wet.
0:16:40 > 0:16:45That's a worry, because she's going to. Look. No choice. Wet hair!
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Granny's House now.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50I forgot that 100 metre races don't
0:16:50 > 0:16:54normally feature people getting smashed in the face with a pie.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Pity. It would have been useful practice.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Mica to the balls now.
0:17:00 > 0:17:0311.8 seconds.
0:17:03 > 0:17:04Oh, no!
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Oh, oh, oh.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08She's screaming. Oh no!
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Oh! So close!
0:17:11 > 0:17:12Log Jam, now.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17Amanda, I'm going to die!
0:17:17 > 0:17:18No, don't do that.
0:17:18 > 0:17:19It's the forms...
0:17:19 > 0:17:21Come on, Mica, here we go.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Oh! Oh! Ah!
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Poor Mica, she's not having a great time.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31So, Meek Mica reaches the finish line in 3:07,
0:17:31 > 0:17:35no records broken, and more importantly no jerk-strain.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38That's a relief.
0:17:38 > 0:17:39This is Kim.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42She's a preschool supervisor who likes to laugh.
0:17:42 > 0:17:43There you go.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47Did you do anything at all to get in shape for this monstrosity out here?
0:17:47 > 0:17:51I did do some baked bean can training, yeah.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- How did that go?- Not very well.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55- How many cans of baked beans? - Two.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56- Did you eat them after? - Of course.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00This baked bean workout seems like my kind of exercise.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02..1,002...
0:18:02 > 0:18:04..1,003...
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Prepare for a bean-powered launch.
0:18:08 > 0:18:09Oh, impressive!
0:18:12 > 0:18:17Straight up... and straight down. Gravity doing all the work.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Beautiful.
0:18:22 > 0:18:27Oh, Kim. It's all in the aerodynamic hotpants.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31Here's where the bean can training will pay off.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34Granny's House won't know what's hit it.
0:18:36 > 0:18:37Oh.
0:18:44 > 0:18:50Eduardo and Eduardo helping Kim find her bean-fuelled stride again.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Yeehah! yeah!
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Yeah!
0:19:00 > 0:19:02Time for the Balls.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07Oh, oops.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09Oh.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Bean power and hotpants now take on the Logs.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16She's standing upright!
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Oh, Faceplant!
0:19:18 > 0:19:19Not any more!
0:19:23 > 0:19:25But Kim's still on there.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Go on, Kim! Come on!
0:19:28 > 0:19:32Oh, well, looks like baked bean lifting isn't the answer after all.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37But look at her go.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42You maybe needed a few more hours with the baked beans, spangly pants.
0:19:44 > 0:19:49Nevertheless, bean-powered Kim does finish in 6:12.
0:19:49 > 0:19:50Well done her.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52I'm done!
0:19:52 > 0:19:55This is Clare from Bury.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58She's a former gymnast, and while she's getting in position
0:19:58 > 0:20:00on her Blob, I'm getting in position on mine!
0:20:00 > 0:20:03I'm going to be brilliant at this.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09How high did I go?
0:20:09 > 0:20:11HORN
0:20:11 > 0:20:12Whoa!
0:20:12 > 0:20:15Whoo-ho-ho!
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Clare is leaving the atmosphere.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22This is amazing.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32Wow.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34Clare's not the only highflyer today, of course.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37She flew nearly as high as I did.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39How high was it, really? Really?
0:20:39 > 0:20:44This is Southampton netball enthusiast, Vanessa.
0:20:47 > 0:20:51Getting a netball's-eye view of the planet.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Then 18-year-old Exeter student Oscar.
0:20:53 > 0:20:58He's got a very high IQ, and an even higher Blob rating.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Look at him go!
0:21:03 > 0:21:06And Colchester aviation insurance broker, Tim.
0:21:08 > 0:21:12Conducting a high altitude risk assessment. Nice, good work.
0:21:22 > 0:21:28There really have been some genuinely amazing aerobatic feats today.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30But here's the highest flyer of them all -
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Clare is just re-entering the atmosphere.
0:21:34 > 0:21:35Oh, that was some landing.
0:21:35 > 0:21:39I'm pretty sure that's cheating, actually - anyway,
0:21:39 > 0:21:41one small step left and she has done it, here we go.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45And that is the fastest so far today.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48So, interstellar Clare is joined by Hannah mathematic
0:21:48 > 0:21:50and Tim air in second and third.
0:21:50 > 0:21:51Meek Mica's in fifth,
0:21:51 > 0:21:54Oscar performance and netball 'Nessa are seventh and eighth,
0:21:54 > 0:21:57and things are looking precarious for bean-powered Kim.
0:21:59 > 0:22:03This is Paul. He whitens people's teeth into Caerphilly.
0:22:04 > 0:22:08Wales I am, but see, know where I'm coming from?
0:22:08 > 0:22:10What's occurrin'?
0:22:10 > 0:22:13You're probably not listening to what I'm saying - hypnotising, isn't he?
0:22:13 > 0:22:15It looks like he's on a stag do for one.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Whoo!
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Whoo!
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Caerphilly does it, Paul.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26Yes, how are you? Thank you very much, Amanda.
0:22:26 > 0:22:31All the way from sunny Wales, Caerphilly, and I'm a big red ball.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33One has to show what one's got.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37- I can see exactly what you've got in that outfit, Paul! - Very nice, isn't it?
0:22:38 > 0:22:41Big red Paul is back in the Valley of the Blob.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45HORN
0:22:46 > 0:22:48Oh, misfire!
0:22:53 > 0:22:56Where's his head gone? Where has his head gone? It's gone.
0:22:56 > 0:22:57Is it supposed to do that?
0:23:01 > 0:23:03After that anticlimactic launch,
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Paul's found his head and is on his way.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08He's a big red ball.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11OK, careful, careful.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Now, Granny doesn't like Welsh people.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Then again, she doesn't really like any people.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19It's just people she doesn't really like.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25The man in red lycra is back for more.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Oh! Ow!
0:23:29 > 0:23:31He's actually under the door.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36The big moment has arrived.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Big red Paul takes on the Big Red Balls.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Which is the best ball?
0:23:40 > 0:23:44Unsurprisingly, it was the Balls.
0:23:44 > 0:23:45Always is.
0:23:49 > 0:23:53And big red Paul comes home in a time of 5:22.
0:23:55 > 0:24:00Paul, I tell you what, Tom Jones, Anthony Hopkins...
0:24:00 > 0:24:03..and now another famous Welshman.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Come on, Dragon!
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Aargh, it's the Dragon!
0:24:07 > 0:24:10This is 44-year-old John from Sunbury on Thames.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Preparing for lift-off.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18Oh-ho, nice! It's a nice one!
0:24:18 > 0:24:20John loves cherries.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23He runs his own business juicing cherries.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26There is nothing this man doesn't know about cherries.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30- What's going on? - I'm the cherry man. I'm the who's the Cherry man?
0:24:30 > 0:24:33- I think you're the Cherry man. - Who's the cherry man?
0:24:33 > 0:24:37What's the dealio with all the cherrioes? What's going on?
0:24:37 > 0:24:38I'm the who's the cherry man.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42- Is that true?- You could say that.
0:24:42 > 0:24:43I'm the cherry man.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46You will be the cherry on the top of this course, will you?
0:24:46 > 0:24:49I certainly will do, I'm the cherry man.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52I think he likes cherries, doesn't he?
0:24:52 > 0:24:54John the cherry man to Granny's House now.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58I wonder if Granny's got a cherry pie prepared for him.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59Maybe. Here goes.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03Oh, no, that was a pieing, that's different entirely.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Maybe those cherry-coloured gloves didn't help.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Look at this cherry-fuelled fortysomething go,
0:25:14 > 0:25:17he could be about to score the fastest time of the day.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20Just one jump away. This is it...
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Oh, yes!
0:25:22 > 0:25:26John the Cherry man has reached the top of the cherry tree in 2:14.
0:25:28 > 0:25:33Now, meet Debbie. She's a fitness instructor.
0:25:33 > 0:25:34Then there's Gemma.
0:25:34 > 0:25:39She's in dentistry horse dentistry.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41And Jo she's in PR.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Together, these three are the in-crowd.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52I'm Northern and I'm well hard!
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Incorrect - Jo is from Reading.
0:25:56 > 0:25:57Here we go.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Yes! Insane!
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Here's Gemma - intercontinental ballistic missile.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07And Debbie - in A&E, probably.
0:26:07 > 0:26:12That's got to hurt. That's fantastic!
0:26:12 > 0:26:15To watch, probably not to do.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17There they are, all in slow motion.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Now here's Gemma.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28Oh! Yeurgh!
0:26:29 > 0:26:31In the drink.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35And Debbie now - in the face.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38And Jo - just in.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41Good barefoot action from Jo, well done.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45I'm Northern and I'm well hard!
0:26:46 > 0:26:48No! Ooh!
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Now, what was that? Inglorious, that'll do.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Gemma the horse dentist to the Logs.
0:27:00 > 0:27:04Oh, hanging on by the skin of her teeth here.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08- What is it you do? - I'm a horse dentist, Amanda.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10It is a quite dangerous job.
0:27:10 > 0:27:14I put my hand into the horse's mouth, so I do, and the horse's teeth
0:27:14 > 0:27:16go right back to the eye, so I am up to my elbow.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19Gemma, that is absolutely disgusting!
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Here we go. Oh, hang on! No!
0:27:23 > 0:27:25Right in the molars.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31Here's Debbie, picking her moment.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33That was the wrong moment.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35And Jo...
0:27:35 > 0:27:38I'm Northern and I'm well hard!
0:27:38 > 0:27:40No! In the noggin!
0:27:40 > 0:27:45Wow, Debbie wins the in-off with a time of 2:34.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Jo is close behind in 2:50,
0:27:48 > 0:27:52but Gemma the horse dentist scores third place in the in-crowd-off.
0:27:53 > 0:27:57Just two competitors left, and this is Ross from Ipswich.
0:27:57 > 0:28:03Check out the unique hat, scarf, sweatband, Bermuda shorts and leotard combo.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05Who would you liken yourself to in life, Ross?
0:28:05 > 0:28:09I'm in a very select group, the five foot five club, with Tom Cruise and Alan Sugar.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13I'm probably pretty much slap-bang in the middle of the two.
0:28:13 > 0:28:18The looks and charm of Tom Cruise, but the business sense of Alan Sugar.
0:28:18 > 0:28:19I've got the best of both worlds.
0:28:19 > 0:28:23Tom Cruise, Alan Sugar and maybe just a whiff of Timmy Mallet.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26Na-na-na, ooh-ahh, dancing bears!
0:28:26 > 0:28:28Oh dear, I think he might be fired.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
0:28:30 > 0:28:32Here we go.
0:28:32 > 0:28:33Oh!
0:28:36 > 0:28:38He got fired, all right. There you go.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50- So, Ross to Granny's House now. - Oh, there he is.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53Past the pie and the door.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55Oh, but not the dog.
0:28:55 > 0:29:00With that below par performance, Ross is surely heading for the boardroom.
0:29:00 > 0:29:04MUSIC: THEME FROM 'THE APPRENTICE'
0:29:10 > 0:29:13Just four Balls and two contestants remain.
0:29:13 > 0:29:17Although one's still limbering up, so I'll focus on fluorescent Sugar-wannabe, Ross.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19Here goes.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21Oh, pretty good.
0:29:22 > 0:29:27Surely he's redeemed himself in the eyes of Lord sugar with that effort.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29Best ball performance of the day.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37You're fired.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40Ross's Qualifier is almost complete.
0:29:40 > 0:29:44He's looking incredibly quick, though.
0:29:44 > 0:29:45Oh, here we go.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54One more jump.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56- Yes!- Yes.
0:29:56 > 0:30:01Ross's search for Qualifier domination has come to an end.
0:30:01 > 0:30:042:08, best of the day.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Ross, you're hired.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10Last contestant of the day,
0:30:10 > 0:30:14hoping to make some headlines of his own, it's Dorset journalist Tom.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16In the words of Dale Winton...
0:30:17 > 0:30:18..bring on the balls!
0:30:24 > 0:30:26Bring on the balls!
0:30:27 > 0:30:31Less bring on the balls - it was more bring on the belly flop.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33There will be a headline.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40Granny's House now. Time for a bit of doorstepping.
0:30:40 > 0:30:43Breaking news - Tom has arrived at Granny's House.
0:30:49 > 0:30:50Oh, no, there'll be another headline.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57Time to wrap up this story. Tom's on to the Log,
0:30:57 > 0:31:01but he needs to beat three minutes 13 to qualify for the next round.
0:31:01 > 0:31:02Make the headlines.
0:31:08 > 0:31:09Oh, no!
0:31:15 > 0:31:18Terrible news - Tom has missed out on qualifying by seven seconds.
0:31:18 > 0:31:21Can you really quickly write me the headline
0:31:21 > 0:31:23for what's just happened to you right now?
0:31:23 > 0:31:27Tom fails to make a splash in Argentina.
0:31:27 > 0:31:28I prefer that one.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32So, the final snowboard looks like this.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34Ross Not Fired sits at the summit.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Interstellar Clare in fourth.
0:31:36 > 0:31:37Gemma The Horse Dentist in eighth.
0:31:37 > 0:31:39And just scraping through are Meek Mica,
0:31:39 > 0:31:42Ring Keeper Mark and Oscar Performance.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44So, it's time to say a tearful cheerio to the eight
0:31:44 > 0:31:46that didn't make it.
0:31:46 > 0:31:51# It's a tragedy for me to see the dream is over
0:31:54 > 0:31:57# And I never will forget the day we met
0:31:57 > 0:31:59# Girl, I'm going to miss you... #
0:32:02 > 0:32:05Like a honeybee, you took the best of me
0:32:05 > 0:32:08Now I can't erase those memories
0:32:08 > 0:32:09I'm going to miss you
0:32:10 > 0:32:12I'm going to miss you
0:32:13 > 0:32:14I miss you...
0:32:18 > 0:32:21This is a sad moment for Qualifier lovers,
0:32:21 > 0:32:23cos that marks the end of the Qualifier.
0:32:23 > 0:32:27But it's good news for Ski Lift lovers, cos that's coming up next.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Winter Blunderland lovers should feel excitement starting to grow,
0:32:30 > 0:32:32as that'll be happening in a bit.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34And lovers of the Wipeout Zone, please hang on in there.
0:32:34 > 0:32:38You've got to wait a while yet. But lovers of the little graphics bits

0:32:48 > 0:32:50Here are some Ski Lift fun facts.

0:32:54 > 0:32:55and 12 handles to hang from.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58The whole apparatus rotates like a merry-go-round.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01Things are made less merry by the counter-rotating,
0:33:01 > 0:33:04scary ski poles, which get steadily higher and higher.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07Fall into the water, and you are out of the game for good.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10The last five Ski Lifters left hanging go through
0:33:10 > 0:33:12to the next round.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20Here on Winter Wipeout,
0:33:20 > 0:33:23do you know what the contestants like best about Ski Lift?
0:33:23 > 0:33:24Absolutely nothing!
0:33:24 > 0:33:26Are you all ready?
0:33:29 > 0:33:31Three, two, one!
0:33:31 > 0:33:33HORN BLARES
0:33:36 > 0:33:39Hitching a Ski Lift today are...
0:33:39 > 0:33:42fastest in the Qualifier, Ross Not Fired.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46HE IMITATES A CHICKEN
0:33:46 > 0:33:49OK, good point, eloquently made. Mmm-hmm. You can stop now.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52Then, there's John The Cherry Man.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55I'll be the last cherry hanging off this tree.
0:33:55 > 0:33:58- I hear he loves cherries. - I'm The Cherry Man.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00Jo In PR.
0:34:00 > 0:34:01Hannah Mathematic.
0:34:01 > 0:34:02And, Maria.
0:34:02 > 0:34:07Watch out, boys, because this Russian rocket is going to lift off!
0:34:07 > 0:34:10Mmm-hmm. Gemma In Dentistry.
0:34:10 > 0:34:11Oscar Performance.
0:34:11 > 0:34:13And, Meek Mica.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15I'm going to be running rings around everybody!
0:34:17 > 0:34:18Interstellar Clare.
0:34:18 > 0:34:20Tim Air.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Debbie In Fitness.
0:34:22 > 0:34:23And, Ring Keeper Mark.
0:34:23 > 0:34:27Hopefully, all my key rings are going to keep me hanging around
0:34:27 > 0:34:29for a little while yet.
0:34:29 > 0:34:33The snow is falling, but who'll be first to join it?
0:34:33 > 0:34:35Remember, only the final five left hanging can go through
0:34:35 > 0:34:36to the next round.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42Snowy carousel of joy begins.
0:34:42 > 0:34:47And there they go. Mark's in trouble straightaway.
0:34:52 > 0:34:56Ooh, no! It's an early bath and an early flight home for Mark.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58It got caught in his ring!
0:35:00 > 0:35:04Ring Keeper Mark took a massive body blow from the second scary ski pole.
0:35:04 > 0:35:05I'm sorry to see him go. Bad luck.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10I think my mum and dad will be very pleased with me,
0:35:10 > 0:35:12very pleased for giving it a go.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14I'm very pleased with myself for giving it a go.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17I'm very pleased that you're very pleased, Mark.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19OK, next six to topple are out of the competition as well.
0:35:24 > 0:35:28There's Jo In PR, off her podium. Oh! And in.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31- That's the end of the road for Jo. - No, no, Jo!
0:35:31 > 0:35:33I fell off! Apparently, my dive was perfect, though,
0:35:33 > 0:35:36and looked really good, so I'm quite happy about that.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40She got sent into a spin and couldn't hold on.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42That was tough! Bad luck.
0:35:43 > 0:35:48Still, back to the game, and there's Ross Not Fired making it look easy.
0:35:48 > 0:35:52Oscar making it look difficult, but he's stayed on, safe for now.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55Debbie In Fitness takes a hit.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02Ooh, that's Oscar. Wow, he's... Oh, he's in.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06Oscar-winning performance from...Oscar.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09This manoeuvre rarely seen, the stylish exit from Oscar.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12I held on for a bit, but not long enough.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15Nine still hanging. Only five can go through.
0:36:16 > 0:36:17Oh, Mica!
0:36:17 > 0:36:20Meek Mica, making a fuss, but still on.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26Debbie In Fitness is in trouble. Hannah as well.
0:36:26 > 0:36:27Oh, is that Debbie dunked?
0:36:27 > 0:36:30Ooh! Whoever it was, Hannah's joined them.
0:36:30 > 0:36:33They are dropping like snowy flies!
0:36:33 > 0:36:36Debbie got things started by smashing into Interstellar Clare,
0:36:36 > 0:36:42who amazingly managed to stay on. Then, Hannah got an all-in-one back massage and opted for the plunge.
0:36:42 > 0:36:46- Oh, dear.- When the sweeper arm hit me in the stomach,
0:36:46 > 0:36:47that was it. I was down.
0:36:50 > 0:36:54I was swinging about everywhere. The next thing I knew...
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Right, well, if I've kept count correctly,
0:37:00 > 0:37:01the next two to fall are out of Winter Wipeout.
0:37:01 > 0:37:04- Oh, Maria!- Maria getting a wallop.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07That's good Russian toughness, that's what that is.
0:37:10 > 0:37:14Everyone's getting a pasting now. Maria is down and out.
0:37:19 > 0:37:21For you, Maria...no.
0:37:21 > 0:37:23One more, guys!
0:37:23 > 0:37:26Just one more!
0:37:26 > 0:37:28Ski poles getting higher now.
0:37:29 > 0:37:30- Oh!- Ooh, Ross!
0:37:30 > 0:37:32- Oh, no!- Ouch.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35Oh, this is on a knife edge. It's Clare now.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38I can't see a way back for Clare now.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41Yeah, Clare is the last to be eliminated.
0:37:41 > 0:37:45I am a little bit disappointed, cos I could see myself in the Wipeout Zone.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47I could see her in traction after that wallop.
0:37:49 > 0:37:50That's the game, isn't it?
0:37:50 > 0:37:53Five remain to play for the dubious honour
0:37:53 > 0:37:55of being last man hanging.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57They are Gemma,
0:37:57 > 0:37:59Tim,
0:37:59 > 0:38:01Mica,
0:38:01 > 0:38:02John
0:38:02 > 0:38:04and Ross.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Ski poles up somewhere around ear height now.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12They're all through to the next round, but no-one is letting go.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15It's for honour, if not glory.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17Oh, that's Gemma! And she's staying on! Oh!
0:38:21 > 0:38:23Ow!
0:38:23 > 0:38:26Ooh, John The Cherry Man's gone.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29And Ross, too.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31Gemma flying about again.
0:38:34 > 0:38:37Mica, you've got a bit of something on your... Oh, never mind.
0:38:37 > 0:38:38Gone now. Yeah, sorry.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42Just Tim Air and Gemma In Dentistry left.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47And they're both in the air now.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49But Gemma's finally let go of her bar,
0:38:49 > 0:38:52so Tim is today's last man hanging, a superb effort.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55Amazing scenes here at Ski Lift!
0:38:57 > 0:38:59This is a sad moment for Ski Lift lovers,
0:38:59 > 0:39:02because that marks the end of the Ski Lift.
0:39:02 > 0:39:03But it's good news for...
0:39:03 > 0:39:06Ah, do you know, I'm not going through all that nonsense again.
0:39:06 > 0:39:11I am a professional, you know. I've done documentaries on...things.
0:39:12 > 0:39:13I wrote a book.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16Wasn't all pictures. Not that you'd have read it, Philip-stines.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19Right, time now for Winter Blunderland.
0:39:19 > 0:39:24No good being nice to me now, it's just... You've already done it.
0:39:32 > 0:39:36Winter Blunderland goes something like this - spin, spin, spin.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41Then, dash over the knobbly, slidey course,
0:39:41 > 0:39:45trying to avoid the giant Ice Cubes thrown by the stroppy skiers.
0:39:45 > 0:39:49The game is played twice, and each time, the last contestant to cross is eliminated.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52That leaves the three Wipeout Zone finalists.
0:39:58 > 0:40:02To me, winter means long walks in the countryside, snuggling up
0:40:02 > 0:40:06in front of a log fire and watching contestants get punched in the mush.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08Mmm, it's Winter Blunderland!
0:40:08 > 0:40:10Are you all ready?
0:40:10 > 0:40:12No!
0:40:12 > 0:40:15Well, I am. Three, two, one!
0:40:15 > 0:40:19Here's a refresher course on who's about to blunder.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22He loves cherries - it's John The Cherry Man.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24I'm a cherry man.
0:40:24 > 0:40:29He's a high flier - it's Tim Air.
0:40:29 > 0:40:32She's a meek athlete - it's Meek Mica.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39He got hired earlier - it's Ross Not Fired.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42And, she's a horse dentist - it's Gemma In Dentistry.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46So, the contestants creak to a halt.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49- Let the blundering begin.- Yeah.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51And there they go.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54Ross - ooh, nice face plant, well done.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59The Cherry Man is first to the Frosty Flipper.
0:40:59 > 0:41:01Straight on to the Crankshaft.
0:41:01 > 0:41:02Those Ice Cubes offering extra niggle
0:41:02 > 0:41:04on an already-niggleful course.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06Ooh, looking good. Ooh, ooh.
0:41:07 > 0:41:13There's Mica. Ooh, straight across. Ice Cubes just bouncing off her.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15Ross and Gemma, neck and neck.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19Ooh, no, Ross is in, and Gemma's in too.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22Synchronised swim back to the start. John making excellent progress.
0:41:22 > 0:41:25Just the Ro-terror-tator and Iceberg to go.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28Looks like he's struggling here.
0:41:30 > 0:41:34He's slipping back. And here's Mica already.
0:41:34 > 0:41:36Oh, no, he's in! I think he panicked.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39That means Mica has stolen the lead.
0:41:39 > 0:41:41Oh, 100 metre sprint - this is easy!
0:41:43 > 0:41:45Ooh, leaps onto the Iceberg,
0:41:45 > 0:41:47but it's this next jump that really counts.
0:41:47 > 0:41:48Hold tight, Mica!
0:41:48 > 0:41:52- Take your time!- The longer she stays, the dizzier she'll get.
0:41:52 > 0:41:54Doesn't know where she is? She's in Argentina.
0:41:54 > 0:41:55Yeah.
0:41:57 > 0:41:59She's done it. Safely through to the next heat.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02Popular with the fans now.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04Here's Tim, finally.
0:42:05 > 0:42:10That was...underwhelming. John now, back onto the Ro-terror-tator.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13Oh, what?! That was ambitious!
0:42:18 > 0:42:21There is literally nobody on the course right now.
0:42:21 > 0:42:25Welcome to Winter No Wipeout. John back on.
0:42:25 > 0:42:28There goes Ross as well, and he's looking good,
0:42:28 > 0:42:31which is hard to do, crouched on some foam.
0:42:34 > 0:42:35Ice Cube incoming.
0:42:38 > 0:42:40Seems to have spurred him on. Third time lucky for John.
0:42:46 > 0:42:50- That's it, John! - Ross is nipping at John's heels.
0:42:50 > 0:42:53One more jump now for John.
0:42:53 > 0:42:54Oh, that's Ross in!
0:42:57 > 0:42:59And that's John The Cherry Man through.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03Ross back to the start of the Ro-terror-tator.
0:43:04 > 0:43:05Come on, Ross!
0:43:07 > 0:43:11Ooh! You have to respect the stroppy skier's precision chucking there.
0:43:11 > 0:43:14Ooh, there we go, onto the Iceberg. One more jump now.
0:43:17 > 0:43:19And he's through. What a crowd pleaser.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25That means either Gemma or Tim are about to be eliminated.
0:43:25 > 0:43:28Oh, look at this - she has overtaken Tim.
0:43:28 > 0:43:31This is Gemma's first go on the Ro-terror-tator.
0:43:31 > 0:43:34But she makes it look like a doddle. Desperate times for Tim now.
0:43:34 > 0:43:37- Is he about to be eliminated? - Come on, Tim!
0:43:37 > 0:43:39- Oh! It's a two-horse race! - Yes, he is!
0:43:39 > 0:43:43Because Gemma is through, and Tim is out of the competition.
0:43:47 > 0:43:50There was a lot of love in that crowd there.
0:43:50 > 0:43:52Yeah, maybe a bit too much.
0:43:55 > 0:43:57Tim, oh, my goodness.
0:43:57 > 0:44:01She was so far behind, you almost won several times.
0:44:01 > 0:44:04- What on earth happened?!- I was just really unlucky, unfortunately.
0:44:04 > 0:44:08So, here they go again, heat two, the decider.
0:44:08 > 0:44:10One of these four is about to be eliminated
0:44:10 > 0:44:13and miss out on today's Wipeout Zone by the tiniest of margins.
0:44:13 > 0:44:15Frustrating.
0:44:20 > 0:44:25It's sometimes easy to forget they all start this game very dizzy.
0:44:25 > 0:44:28Gemma's just beaten that buckle - it's a start.
0:44:28 > 0:44:31John and Mica both on to the Flipper.
0:44:31 > 0:44:33John, I think, edging ahead, is he?
0:44:35 > 0:44:36Oh!
0:44:37 > 0:44:41John just accepting those Ice Cubes! Just getting on with it.
0:44:46 > 0:44:48Pushing on, his old nemesis, the Ro-terror-tator, now.
0:44:51 > 0:44:54Ooh, Mica's in trouble! Oh!
0:44:55 > 0:44:58John's obviously learned from his mistakes.
0:44:58 > 0:45:01And he's straight through to the Wipeout Zone.
0:45:01 > 0:45:04I want some of that cherry juice - it obviously works!
0:45:04 > 0:45:06Look at him go.
0:45:07 > 0:45:09Gemma bobbing about in the water.
0:45:09 > 0:45:11Mica on the Crankshaft.
0:45:12 > 0:45:15But she's been overtaken by Ross.
0:45:15 > 0:45:17Can he snatch the second spot in the Wipeout Zone?
0:45:17 > 0:45:20He can, and very quickly indeed.
0:45:22 > 0:45:25Things looking dicey for Gemma now.
0:45:25 > 0:45:29Her only hope is that Mica mucks it up. But she's looking comfortable.
0:45:30 > 0:45:34Ooh, onto the Iceberg. Just one jump to go. Come on!
0:45:34 > 0:45:38Superb! Mica grabs the third and final spot in today's Wipeout Zone.
0:45:38 > 0:45:41Which sadly means Gemma The Horse Dentist has fallen
0:45:41 > 0:45:42at the final hurdle.
0:45:42 > 0:45:47Gemma, you quite literally couldn't get past the first hurdle!
0:45:47 > 0:45:50I couldn't get past the first hurdle! That's a little bit hard!
0:45:50 > 0:45:53Listen, well done for getting this far, we'll see you later on, OK?
0:45:53 > 0:45:55- OK, thank you.- I've just received
0:45:55 > 0:45:59another top-secret fax with some amazing news in it.
0:45:59 > 0:46:01I'm not really supposed to say this,
0:46:01 > 0:46:05but it's about the three Wipeout Zone finalists.
0:46:05 > 0:46:08Apparently, it's John, Mica and Ross.
0:46:08 > 0:46:11This is dynamite - where do they get this stuff from?
0:46:11 > 0:46:14They must have someone on the inside. A vole.
0:46:18 > 0:46:21An Englishman, Scotsman and Welshwoman tackle
0:46:21 > 0:46:25the Winter Wipeout Zone - just sounds like the start of a joke.
0:46:26 > 0:46:28I've competed for Wales in the 100 meters.
0:46:28 > 0:46:32But now, I'm going to be competing for Wales in the Wipeout Zone.
0:46:32 > 0:46:35I just can't believe that I'm here, facing the Wipeout Zone.
0:46:35 > 0:46:37I really want to win this.
0:46:39 > 0:46:40# Gold
0:46:40 > 0:46:43# Always believe in your soul... #
0:46:43 > 0:46:46John, me and him have been at the top throughout all the courses today.
0:46:46 > 0:46:48He's really up for this.
0:46:48 > 0:46:51John's weakness is that he's a lot older!
0:46:51 > 0:46:53He might find it a bit of a struggle.
0:46:53 > 0:46:57It's been a long day, and he's probably ready for bed now.
0:46:57 > 0:47:00# Something I could have learned
0:47:00 > 0:47:02# You're indestructible... #
0:47:02 > 0:47:06Mica, she's a professional athlete. She's so fast. She's a sprinter,
0:47:06 > 0:47:08she's very, very determined,
0:47:08 > 0:47:09but has she got it to beat me?
0:47:09 > 0:47:11I'm The Cherry Man.
0:47:11 > 0:47:13Ross and John, first and second in the Qualifier,
0:47:13 > 0:47:14and I was, like, tenth.
0:47:14 > 0:47:17I think they find it easier to compete against each other.
0:47:17 > 0:47:21I'm going to have to catch up and sprint up behind them.
0:47:22 > 0:47:27Now, Ross is a great guy. He's got a wicked sense of humour. He's totally tenacious,
0:47:27 > 0:47:30like a dog with a bone. He will be totally determined.
0:47:31 > 0:47:34Mr Braveheart, I'm going to beat you.
0:47:34 > 0:47:35# Gold
0:47:36 > 0:47:38# Always believe in your soul... #
0:47:38 > 0:47:42I'm pretty much smack bang in the middle of Tom Cruise and Alan Sugar.
0:47:42 > 0:47:45Charm and charisma, with a great business mind,
0:47:45 > 0:47:50and I'm going to have to use every inch of that tonight, but almost like
0:47:50 > 0:47:53Mission: Impossible, there's going to be a lot of spirit and fight
0:47:53 > 0:47:58to get through this, but at the end of this, I will be hired.
0:48:01 > 0:48:02I'm The Cherry Man.
0:48:07 > 0:48:09This is it.
0:48:09 > 0:48:13Either John, Mica or Ross are about to become Winter Wipeout champion,
0:48:13 > 0:48:16return home with the trophy and £10,000.
0:48:18 > 0:48:22It's the battle of Britain on the Winter Wipeout Zone tonight.
0:48:22 > 0:48:26We've got a Scot, an Englisher and a Welshie.
0:48:26 > 0:48:29It's going to be emotional, and John is the first to go.
0:48:30 > 0:48:34John the Cherry Man prepares himself for lift-off.
0:48:34 > 0:48:39This is for Cheeky Chocolate Charlie and the Cherries! Come on!
0:48:42 > 0:48:46Nice bit of mid-air running there. Tricky. Keen to start.
0:48:49 > 0:48:50And he's in.
0:48:52 > 0:48:56John must swim as quickly as possible to the slippery North Pole.
0:48:56 > 0:48:58Come on, John!
0:49:00 > 0:49:01This is a strong start.
0:49:05 > 0:49:10Now, John must climb the Icy Stairs. Each one jiggling violently.
0:49:10 > 0:49:12Look at him go, already at the third!
0:49:12 > 0:49:16- Fuelled by cherries!- That cherry juice he drinks is clearly helping.
0:49:16 > 0:49:18Just the descent now.
0:49:21 > 0:49:24He's made it to the Ice Picks. This is a quick run!
0:49:24 > 0:49:25Oh, no, that was just ridiculous!
0:49:28 > 0:49:29In his quest for a fast run,
0:49:29 > 0:49:34John forgot that timing is also very important.
0:49:34 > 0:49:35- Oh!- Come on, John!
0:49:35 > 0:49:39Losing valuable seconds and strength. Oh, no.
0:49:39 > 0:49:42His energy reserves running low now. John looks to be in trouble.
0:49:42 > 0:49:43I cannot bear it.
0:49:43 > 0:49:46You cannot underestimate how difficult it must be
0:49:46 > 0:49:49to haul yourself up a ladder in those conditions.
0:49:49 > 0:49:51Finally, John has made it to the top.
0:49:51 > 0:49:53He's got to judge this jump correctly now.
0:49:55 > 0:49:57Come on, John. Such a strong start.
0:49:59 > 0:50:03- Yeah, he's made it. - Oh, please don't fall again. I cannot bear it if he falls again.
0:50:03 > 0:50:05He just needs to get up.
0:50:05 > 0:50:07Oh! Unbelievable.
0:50:07 > 0:50:10Awww, bless his cherry-picking socks.
0:50:10 > 0:50:14Oh, it's another ladder now.
0:50:14 > 0:50:18John must have been destroyed by all this climbing. It's the Snowflakes.
0:50:18 > 0:50:21Very, very few people have ever made it over these...
0:50:21 > 0:50:22Oh, no!
0:50:22 > 0:50:24No!
0:50:24 > 0:50:29- Oh!- Heartbreaking. A final climb to the finish podium for John.
0:50:29 > 0:50:31He knows this isn't good.
0:50:31 > 0:50:33This has got to hurt.
0:50:33 > 0:50:35This is brave.
0:50:35 > 0:50:3705:01 is the time to beat.
0:50:38 > 0:50:42Oh, John. How are you doing, my darling?
0:50:43 > 0:50:50- Can I do it again?- the determination in you to succeed was next to none. - Thank you, Amanda.
0:50:50 > 0:50:54I can tell you that you did that in a very fruity time of 05:01.
0:50:54 > 0:50:58We've got Mica up next, but yours is still the time to beat, John!
0:50:58 > 0:51:02- OK, OK, I'll sit down.- Take a deep breath. Let's watch. Come on.
0:51:04 > 0:51:06So Mica is the next to fly.
0:51:08 > 0:51:11The finish line's in sight, and I'm sprinting towards it!
0:51:14 > 0:51:15Ooh!
0:51:15 > 0:51:18And there she goes...
0:51:18 > 0:51:21Great dive from this Welsh athlete.
0:51:24 > 0:51:26Aah!
0:51:29 > 0:51:32Did you hear that little squeak, like a mouse? Eek!
0:51:32 > 0:51:36So 05:01 is the target. Mica quickly to the North Pole.
0:51:36 > 0:51:40Now, let's see if she can do this in 11.8 seconds, eh, John?
0:51:42 > 0:51:44CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:51:44 > 0:51:45On to the Icy Stairs.
0:51:45 > 0:51:49Now, Mica's athleticism should help her here.
0:51:49 > 0:51:50Ooh!
0:51:50 > 0:51:52On to the second set...there she goes.
0:51:54 > 0:51:57- Come on. You can do this. - Motivational talk there.
0:51:57 > 0:52:00Mica slower than John at this point.
0:52:00 > 0:52:01- Come on, Mica!- Come on, Mica!
0:52:03 > 0:52:04Nearly at the Summit.
0:52:09 > 0:52:11Well, she's steadily reached the top.
0:52:14 > 0:52:17Bit of jiggling. Now for the tricky descent.
0:52:21 > 0:52:22- Aah!- Ooh...- Squeaker Mica.
0:52:24 > 0:52:27Just one more jump to the Ice Picks.
0:52:27 > 0:52:29CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:52:31 > 0:52:33- Yes...- Come on, Mica!
0:52:35 > 0:52:36Past the first.
0:52:38 > 0:52:40- Screaming...- Come on, Mica!
0:52:40 > 0:52:42And the second.
0:52:42 > 0:52:44Oh! She's been hit!
0:52:44 > 0:52:48But Mica has stayed on. Now for the all-important jump onto the Frightcicles.
0:52:50 > 0:52:53- Oh, Mica!- Go, Mica!- What is she doing?
0:52:53 > 0:52:54- Aah!- Picking her moment...
0:52:56 > 0:52:59- I can't...- You can!- I can't do it! - Yes, you can! You can do it!
0:52:59 > 0:53:00You can do it.
0:53:00 > 0:53:01She did it!
0:53:02 > 0:53:05Brave. Mica is at The Middle.
0:53:06 > 0:53:11Running. And she's made it past the Frightcicles.
0:53:11 > 0:53:13And that's brought her some valuable seconds back.
0:53:14 > 0:53:18The Impossible Snowflakes now. Oh, no! Living up to their name.
0:53:18 > 0:53:21Mica didn't even get a grip on that snow-covered flake.
0:53:21 > 0:53:23It's a swim to the finish podium now.
0:53:23 > 0:53:25And then a climb.
0:53:25 > 0:53:30And if Mica makes it to the top in one go, she will have beaten John.
0:53:30 > 0:53:31Come on, Mica!
0:53:33 > 0:53:38And she has, in 4:29. Mica's is now the time to beat.
0:53:39 > 0:53:44- Mica, my lovely, lovely girl, how are you feeling, darling?- A bit wet!
0:53:46 > 0:53:50- Were you a little bit petrified out there?- Just a tad, yeah.
0:53:50 > 0:53:53Well, listen, you needed a personal best in order to beat John,
0:53:53 > 0:53:55- who was absolutely great.- Yeah.
0:53:56 > 0:54:00And you've done it, Mica. You were faster! Sorry, John.
0:54:00 > 0:54:01CHEERING
0:54:03 > 0:54:05- You weren't expecting that, were you?- No.
0:54:05 > 0:54:07Ross is up next. Let's watch.
0:54:09 > 0:54:12He is just about to be fired.
0:54:13 > 0:54:17- This is for you, my baby boy. See you soon.- It's Ross not fired.
0:54:23 > 0:54:26Wow! Terrifying start.
0:54:35 > 0:54:38This looks quick straight away from Ross.
0:54:38 > 0:54:40There he goes with his little legs!
0:54:40 > 0:54:44Steadies himself now for the Icy Stairs.
0:54:46 > 0:54:49- He's on.- Hurling himself on the first obstacle.
0:54:49 > 0:54:51And he's onto the second.
0:54:54 > 0:54:57Now the third. Hold on, Ross, hold on!
0:54:57 > 0:54:59Oh, no, he has fallen.
0:55:02 > 0:55:06And with that tumble, Ross is going to have to attempt the stairs again.
0:55:07 > 0:55:10We're joining Ross at the second attempt now.
0:55:10 > 0:55:12Ross was the fastest in the qualifiers
0:55:12 > 0:55:15so if anyone can pull this back, it's him.
0:55:16 > 0:55:18He's making those look easy now.
0:55:18 > 0:55:20Straight onto the Ice Picks.
0:55:21 > 0:55:23Suddenly in control again.
0:55:24 > 0:55:25Timing.
0:55:26 > 0:55:29Oh, no! No! Disaster!
0:55:29 > 0:55:33It's that third pick that seems to get them every time.
0:55:35 > 0:55:38So it's a climb back up the ladder.
0:55:41 > 0:55:42Oh, he's struggling.
0:55:45 > 0:55:47Come on, Ross!
0:55:47 > 0:55:53- These are the hardest stairs to get up. Get up, get up, get up!- Come on!
0:55:53 > 0:55:56- Oh, no!- Oh, no!
0:55:56 > 0:55:58It looks like Ross just ran out of energy.
0:56:01 > 0:56:03ROSS ROARS
0:56:03 > 0:56:06This is heartbreaking. Ross keeps falling off.
0:56:06 > 0:56:10As the minutes tick by, his challenge is over.
0:56:12 > 0:56:15- Come on, Ross!- No!
0:56:16 > 0:56:21- Come on, Ross!- But you've got to give it to him, he just keeps on going.
0:56:21 > 0:56:24- That's some determination right there.- Wow.
0:56:27 > 0:56:29CROWD: Come on, Rossy! Come on, Rossy!
0:56:29 > 0:56:31I can hardly watch.
0:56:32 > 0:56:34Come on, Ross.
0:56:34 > 0:56:37Concentration, it's every ounce of strength he has left.
0:56:38 > 0:56:41Look at that! He's made it.
0:56:41 > 0:56:44It took nearly four minutes to get up those stairs, but he made it.
0:56:44 > 0:56:46Wow.
0:56:46 > 0:56:50He's still going. He was not going to give up.
0:56:50 > 0:56:52Just stayed on there. Come on, Ross!
0:56:52 > 0:56:55Oh, no! No! Poor Ross.
0:56:55 > 0:56:58This really hasn't been his day.
0:57:01 > 0:57:05Obviously, Ross's challenge has long gone, but he keeps going.
0:57:10 > 0:57:12On the Snowflakes.
0:57:12 > 0:57:14Off the Snowflakes. He's fallen again.
0:57:14 > 0:57:19The steely nerve and determination. How brave is Ross?
0:57:19 > 0:57:21One final climb now.
0:57:21 > 0:57:24I hope he brings his ordeal to an end with one attempt here.
0:57:27 > 0:57:32And he has. 9:13, but he did it and you've got to admire that.
0:57:35 > 0:57:36What a hero!
0:57:36 > 0:57:42Ross, come on out here, my darling. Oh, my goodness.
0:57:42 > 0:57:47Ross, Mica, I said tonight that this was going to be an emotional night
0:57:47 > 0:57:49and I'll tell you what, I was not wrong.
0:57:49 > 0:57:54That was THE most incredible, the bravest,
0:57:54 > 0:57:57the most determined run I have ever seen.
0:57:57 > 0:58:01But there can only be one Winter Wipeout champion.
0:58:01 > 0:58:04And Ross, I'm afraid you just weren't quick enough.
0:58:04 > 0:58:06Mica, you are the Winter Wipeout champion!
0:58:06 > 0:58:09So after that epic Wipeout Zone,
0:58:09 > 0:58:11Welsh athlete Mica Moore takes the gold.
0:58:11 > 0:58:14It's actually not gold, it's kind of silvery in colour.
0:58:14 > 0:58:16Nevertheless, it's hers, along with the £10,000 prize.
0:58:16 > 0:58:18Some people are going to say,
0:58:18 > 0:58:22"Will there ever be another Winter Wipeout champion again?"
0:58:22 > 0:58:23And to them I say,
0:58:23 > 0:58:27yes, obviously, about this time next week when there'll be a bit of this.
0:58:29 > 0:58:32Some of this.
0:58:32 > 0:58:34And then this guy will win.
0:58:34 > 0:58:38Yeah. So until then, from Amanda and me, it's goodbye.
