brother George, my son Steven and my elder sister Mary S rose. We are

from Liverpool. I'm the youngest of four. This is my

eldest brother George, my sister Mary Rose. The then there was John.

He's a joker. Mad Hatter comes to mind. He is amazing. You wouldn't

know what is coming next. John moved to America in 1985 to be with the

love of his life, Debbie. It was a bit hard for me because we were very

close. Obviously, I knew they were meant to be together. I didn't think

for one minute he would go over and stay. Look at that. He has beautiful

daughters and two grandchildren. It was worth it. We have never had the

opportunity to get everyone in the same room before. That's why this is

so important to us. Hi, guys. You look awesome. I'm John Connor, I'm

62 years of age. I live here in New Jersey. This is my family and team.

Hi, I'm Debbieishings John's wife. I'm his daughter. We are the

Connors. What we love about living in New Jersey we are not too far

from New York City. What I miss most of all is my family back home. It's

been 27 years since I emgrated to America. It would be great to

reunite in one place just having a good time. Come on, Connor, clan. We

make the time. You get the prizes. Are you OK Yeah. Very emotional. You

said during the course of that, I could see they were meant to be

together, I never thought he would leave. I never thought he would

leave. Never. To go to America, it was a shock. You miss him? Yeah. Let

us cross over to America to our New York studio. Hello, America!

APPLAUSE. Debbie, you have half your seat

there, John is one of those people you end up next to on a plane who

nick your armrest, don't they? It's OK. What do you miss most about the

UK? Fish and chips, no doubt, Nick. If you had to put your neck on the

line, which do you miss most, the fish and chips or the family? Can I

conifer. It begins with "f." There are two Lorraines playing this game.

You are named after your aunt? My gorgeous ant. My mum says put a

black wig on me I'm her. Who is the bright spark? Me, obviously. We all

have our strengths. We will all do great. Listen, there is a chance of

you winning an amazing trip. Shall we find out where you could be

going? YES. You are playing to win a five-star holiday to Jamaica. This

prize will see you and your familying discovering an island of

white family beaches, rum and reggae. You can discover all that

Jamaica has to offer. However you decide to spend your days it will

surely be the reunion of a lifetime. APPLAUSE Can you imagine you guys

altogether, toes in the sand, faces in the sun? Yes. That lobster looked

delicious. I'm there. You will be playing for the trip to Jamaica in

the final. We are giving the UK family a chance to win ?30,000. To

do that you need help from your family in America. Each of the UK

family will answer quick-fire questions against our timer. Whilst

the timer is running every correct answer most you further up the money

ladder. When the ball stops passing through the red laser line, your

time will be up. So you need as much time as you can get. Only your

family overseas can help you with that. If we are all ready, let's

play 5-Star Family Reunion. APPLAUSE

OK, family in the USA, I'm going to ask you four multiple choice

questions. Each correct answer will raise the starter ball one level

higher. Here we go. Question: Take it away. This will be a guess,

I think. If I had to guess I would say chess. Scrabble is more recent.

Are you positive? Not positive. Not a card game. Remember the auto

museum we went to the statues were holding clogs. That wasn't that old.

Shall we go chess. I will lock in on Thank you very chess. Much. You

can't change their answer. What do you guys think? I would say chess as

well. Let's have a look then. Was it chess. Yes, it was.

As a result of that fantastic performance, let's raise the ball by

one level. A good solid start. Question two:

Arthur Conan Doyle was in the military. Jeffrey Archer I'm not too

sure about. My instinct says Arthur conn Doyle. If you he was in the

military. I'm going to lock in Arthur Conan Doyle. Thank you very

much. Are they right? Definitely. Was it Arthur Conan Doyle? No, it

wasn't, I'm afraid. Who was it, Roald Dahl. Sorry. Famous for his

children's books. You gain no extra time we can't raise the ball on this

occasion. Question three: My mum was the biggest fan of his.

He is definitely a doctor. I'm positive. Doctor. I totally agree

Nick. I'm locking in on doctor. Definitely. What do we think?

Definitely. You are absolutely confident he is right. Was it a

doctor? Yes, it was. Of course, it was.

APPLAUSE Fantastic, raise the ball by one

more level. Last question in the first round. Question four, let's

see if we can make it three out of four correct.

I'm thinking Nile. The Nile I believe is the longest. I think the

Amazon may be the one... Are you positive? I was going to say Amazon.

I will stick my neck out, Nick and I'm going to lock in on the Amazon.

We have locked-in Amazon. What do you think? No idea. Ganges. I don't

know why I'm drawn to the Ganges. Is it the Amazon? It is.

APPLAUSE Great job in America. Three out of

four. That was a very good round. We can raise the ball one more level as

a result. They've done a great job for you there. Absolutely. It's now

over to you UK. One of you must answer quick-fire questions. You

will be playing for pawn 0,000. They are books and authors, food and

drink, history and television. The category for this round is books and

authors. Who is going to play first? What do you think? I'm no good.

You're no good. I'm not good, I'll take this. Are you going to do it

I'll do my best. The family in America have moved the starter ball

three places for you. You can use a power play to move it one level

higher if you like. You can only use this once in the entire game. You

need to use it wisely. I think we'll wait. Really? Yeah. Let's turn time

into money, Mary Rose. APPLAUSE

You have taken one for the team here. You don't particularly like

the category? No. I might be lucky and know all of them. ?5,000 up for

grabs for your UK family. I wish you the very best of luck. Here is how

it works. I will ask you quick-fire questions on books and authors while

the timer is running. Every correct answer moves you further up the

money ladder. When the ball stops passing the red laser line your time

will be up. Are you ready? I'm ready. Then, let's play.

of the sisters, Charlotte, Emily and Anne. You said Bronte. Just out of

time. Nonetheless, ?3,000 for your family. They want to congratulate

you. Let's get down there and see if you can get a hug.

APPLAUSE How good is that? You certainly did

more than you expected yourself there. Didn't she do well?

Fantastic. You were the terrible threesome together they would play

nasty tricks on you? Yes. It's a wonder I'm still here today. I don't

know why we did that, Mary Rose, I'm sorry. We are back off to America to

see how much time they can get you. America, if you are ready, eyes

down, here is your question: I don't think it's the telephone.

You don't. Not telephone. I wouldn't say it's the world wide web either.

I would say combustion. We ruled out worldwide web. Combustion engine.

That's my final answer. What do you think of their answer? That looks

good to us. Let's take a The World Wide Web was invented by

the British scientist... You got the question wrong which means no more

time for the family. Next question. I love going to the movies and I

watched the Oscars. Mad Max got a lot of technical awards. The Big

clue. Yes, it was him. One more level. Were you expecting your

family to do so well? I expected nothing but that. The youngsters are

bright as buttons. Very intelligent and beautiful. Love you. Love you as

well. There is a lot of loving. I'm feeling left out. America, you can

relax. You've done very well. You are playing for ?5,000. There are

three categories left. Who would like to take this one on? Based on

would picture playing tennis rather than football. We will eliminate the

toured France, I'm just drawn towards the football World Cup. I've

got football on the brain. I'm going to lock that in. I would go for

Wimbledon if any of them. It was not the football World Cup I'm afraid.

Which was it. It was Wimbledon. Very tough. You did not get that one

right. Let's go on to question two. I don't know who Christina Hendricks

world records. How much do those victories help people realise

disabilities in the world and try and be more aware of them? We are

year-by-year and see how it goes. It will be interesting to see whether

you do make that decision. We want to talk about training being time
