Good evening. This is our festive edition of A Question Of Sport.

0:00:290:00:32

Tonight, Matt is joined by two celebrity sports fans.

0:00:320:00:35

Would you please welcome Vernon Kay and Rachel Riley?

0:00:350:00:38

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:00:380:00:40

And teaming up with Tuffers tonight it's the Olympians.

0:00:440:00:47

It's Amy Williams and Iwan Thomas.

0:00:470:00:50

APPLAUSE

0:00:500:00:52

Tonight's show promises to be such fun.

0:00:540:00:56

Let's get things moving with Round One.

0:00:560:00:58

Everyone is playing in this game.

0:01:010:01:04

It's going to be a quickfire round so you'll only have a few seconds

0:01:040:01:07

to answer. I'm afraid you won't be able to write anything down, OK?

0:01:070:01:10

You will take it in turns to name a team that has played in

0:01:100:01:13

football's Premier League that begins with any of the letters

0:01:130:01:18

in Christmas.

0:01:180:01:21

So are we ready, Vernon?

0:01:210:01:23

I'm going to start with you.

0:01:230:01:24

-Chelsea.

-Amy?

0:01:240:01:26

Erm...

0:01:260:01:30

Come on, any football team.

0:01:300:01:31

Too late. Move on.

0:01:310:01:33

-Matt?

-Charlton Athletic.

0:01:330:01:35

Tuffers?

0:01:350:01:36

-Southampton.

-Rachel?

0:01:360:01:37

Manchester United.

0:01:370:01:39

-Iwan?

-Oh, I wanted Southampton.

0:01:390:01:42

-Sunderland.

-Back to Vernon.

0:01:420:01:44

-Reading.

-Amy?

0:01:440:01:46

-Arsenal.

-Oh, no.

0:01:460:01:48

-Matt?

-Man City.

0:01:480:01:50

-Nice.

-Phil?

0:01:500:01:51

-Tottenham.

-Rachel?

0:01:510:01:53

-Charlton Athletic.

-He said it. Iwan?

0:01:530:01:57

-Coventry.

-OK, Vernon?

0:01:570:01:59

-Ipswich.

-Amy?

0:01:590:02:01

Erm... Sunderland? No, we've had that.

0:02:010:02:03

No, we have to move on. Matt?

0:02:030:02:06

-Aston Villa.

-Phil?

0:02:060:02:08

-Arsenal.

-Been said. Rachel?

0:02:080:02:10

-Have we said Sunderland?

-Yes.

0:02:100:02:13

-Iwan?

-Come on, you go.

0:02:130:02:14

Hammers.

0:02:140:02:16

That was a joke.

0:02:160:02:18

WHISTLE BLOWS

0:02:180:02:21

We'll take that. We'll take that.

0:02:210:02:24

APPLAUSE

0:02:240:02:27

We couldn't allow Hammers and Arsenal

0:02:270:02:29

and Charlton were said twice, but at the end of the round,

0:02:290:02:32

Phil is on 5 but Matt is in front on 7.

0:02:320:02:37

APPLAUSE

0:02:370:02:39

In this round, we are going to find out

0:02:470:02:49

if you can tell who is telling the truth.

0:02:490:02:51

Matt, your team each have a card to read out.

0:02:510:02:55

Phil, your team need to pick out who you think is reading the truth.

0:02:550:03:00

-OK, Vernon, we are going to start with you.

-OK, here we go.

0:03:000:03:04

The term is...

0:03:040:03:06

-Frostee Rucker...

-OK.

-..named after his father DJ Frost,

0:03:060:03:12

Frostee is a defensive end for the Arizona Cardinals

0:03:120:03:16

in the National Football League, the NFL.

0:03:160:03:18

He was once quoted as saying that he hated Christmas growing up

0:03:180:03:22

because of the teasing about his name.

0:03:220:03:25

Then he got big,

0:03:250:03:27

really, really big and the jokes stopped.

0:03:270:03:31

Frosty rucker is a slang phrase

0:03:310:03:34

in New Zealand provincial rugby

0:03:340:03:38

for a player that consistently infringes at the breakdown.

0:03:380:03:43

Yes.

0:03:430:03:45

LAUGHTER

0:03:450:03:46

The term is thought to be named after former international...

0:03:460:03:50

Harry Frost who was a particularly frosty rucker...

0:03:500:03:53

LAUGHTER

0:03:530:03:55

-I had to be very careful how I said that.

-Yes, thank you.

0:03:550:03:59

-Merry Christmas. Yes.

-..in the early 20th century.

0:03:590:04:03

Frosty rucker is a term in curling referring to the technique

0:04:030:04:06

of powerfully sending a stone

0:04:060:04:09

to clear all other stones from the house.

0:04:090:04:11

A stone used in this way is known as a frosty rucker

0:04:110:04:15

and doesn't require the use of the curling brooms.

0:04:150:04:17

-So...

-Curling.

-Who do you think is telling the truth?

0:04:180:04:22

I've never heard that in curling. I think I might have heard of that.

0:04:220:04:25

There's a few in the house.

0:04:250:04:26

-He's going to throw a frosty rucker down.

-Vernon...

0:04:260:04:30

Vernon sounds the funniest,

0:04:300:04:32

but he could actually be the one that's true.

0:04:320:04:36

-That's what I'm thinking.

-What was he again?

0:04:360:04:38

He used to get teased because his name was Frostee Rucker.

0:04:380:04:40

I don't know but I'm guessing

0:04:400:04:42

the middle one with rugby and the ruck.

0:04:420:04:44

That makes sense. But then that could be a little curved ball.

0:04:440:04:48

Maybe like a double edged spin.

0:04:480:04:50

I don't think a frosty rucker is Rachel.

0:04:500:04:53

-No.

-I mean... What she said obviously.

0:04:530:04:57

I don't think frosty rucker, I've never heard that.

0:04:570:05:00

I think it's those bells.

0:05:000:05:02

I can't take me eyes off his bells there.

0:05:020:05:05

Luring me in. What do you fancy?

0:05:050:05:07

I'm going to go with the frosty Christmas theme

0:05:070:05:09

and go with Vernon.

0:05:090:05:10

What do you fancy?

0:05:100:05:12

I fancy Rachel, but we'll go Vernon.

0:05:120:05:14

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:05:140:05:16

So...sorry.

0:05:220:05:24

Hey, it's the BBC, you've got to be honest.

0:05:260:05:28

-I'll go Vernon.

-Did you...

0:05:280:05:31

I want it to be Vernon.

0:05:310:05:33

Come on then.

0:05:330:05:34

So, we are going to go Vernon.

0:05:340:05:36

So let's see who it was.

0:05:360:05:39

Here we go.

0:05:390:05:41

(It's not Dawson.)

0:05:420:05:43

(Please don't be Rachel.)

0:05:430:05:45

ALL: Yes!

0:05:450:05:48

Good work. Good work.

0:05:510:05:54

The roles are reversed now and the term is Santa Claus.

0:05:550:06:00

-OK, Amy, you're up.

-Oh, yeah.

0:06:000:06:03

OK, in biathlon events, competitors have support teams that follow them

0:06:030:06:08

over the course similar to the Tour de France.

0:06:080:06:12

The support crew carry spare skis, rifles,

0:06:120:06:14

clothing and refreshments all in a big sack.

0:06:140:06:18

Because of this they are known as Santa Claus.

0:06:180:06:22

-Santa Claus, FC Santa Claus are a team who play...

-Shut up.

0:06:220:06:26

FC Santa Claus are a team who play in the third tier

0:06:290:06:34

of football in Finland.

0:06:340:06:36

They play in red kit with white trim, obviously...

0:06:360:06:40

And they've got bells on their boots.

0:06:410:06:43

And their biggest success came in 1994

0:06:440:06:47

when they won the Midnattsolscupen -

0:06:470:06:51

or the Cup Of The Midnight Sun.

0:06:510:06:53

They play their home games in the capital of Lapland.

0:06:530:06:58

OK, Santa Claus...

0:06:580:07:00

Santa clause is the nickname given to the legislation

0:07:000:07:04

in world speedway regarding transfers between Scandinavian teams

0:07:040:07:08

and those that are in the UK.

0:07:080:07:10

Riders were coming in on short-term loans for matches in bad weather

0:07:100:07:14

because of their experience they had riding in cold conditions.

0:07:140:07:19

This has since been blocked by the Santa clause.

0:07:190:07:22

LAUGHTER

0:07:220:07:25

-So...

-A bit like the Bosman rule, then.

0:07:270:07:29

Yes, they just bring them in for bad weather.

0:07:290:07:32

They nail it and then they go back.

0:07:320:07:34

-Clause, the Santa clause.

-I like that one.

0:07:340:07:37

FC Santa Claus is so far fetched it's just ridiculous.

0:07:380:07:42

-But if it's in Lapland.

-That's why it's even more far-fetched.

-Amy?

0:07:420:07:46

Mine was the biathlon.

0:07:460:07:49

-The biathlon.

-Where they put all the gear in the sack.

-Oh, yes.

0:07:490:07:52

The support crew carry spare skis, rifles, clothing and refreshments

0:07:520:07:56

all in a big sack and because of this they are known

0:07:560:07:58

as Santa Claus.

0:07:580:08:01

-I like it.

-You like it?

-I like it.

0:08:010:08:03

In a biathlon, there's one guy running behind...

0:08:030:08:06

LAUGHTER

0:08:060:08:08

-..with a massive sack full of skis and things.

-He might have a sledge.

0:08:080:08:12

The more we take in these two, the more that one sounds real.

0:08:120:08:18

-Really?

-I think so.

0:08:180:08:19

-You like the speedway?

-I like the speedway.

0:08:190:08:22

It's the most sensible of the two.

0:08:220:08:24

FC Santa Claus. Right, so who did you play for at the weekend?

0:08:240:08:27

Yeah, I'm forward for FC Santa Claus.

0:08:270:08:29

There's only one Santa Claus!

0:08:310:08:33

LAUGHTER

0:08:330:08:35

One Santa Claus!

0:08:350:08:39

You're going home in a Santa sleigh.

0:08:390:08:42

Oh, I think, I think...

0:08:420:08:46

-I'm slightly leaning this way.

-Go for it.

0:08:460:08:51

One-nil to the Santa Claus...

0:08:510:08:53

Get your beard out for the lads!

0:08:530:08:56

LAUGHTER

0:08:560:08:58

Oh, no, it's going to be Santa Claus FC, isn't it?

0:08:580:09:03

Don't think so.

0:09:030:09:06

OK, we'll go with...

0:09:060:09:08

We'll go with the...

0:09:090:09:11

the Santa clause.

0:09:110:09:12

Speedway. You are going with Iwan.

0:09:120:09:15

OK, who was telling the truth?

0:09:150:09:19

-It can't be the football.

-It can't be.

0:09:200:09:23

It can't be the football.

0:09:230:09:24

It was.

0:09:250:09:28

# There's only one Santa Claus!

0:09:280:09:30

# One Santa Claus!

0:09:300:09:34

# There's only one Santa Claus!

0:09:340:09:38

That's so good.

0:09:380:09:41

-Play their home games in the capital of Lapland.

-Yes.

0:09:420:09:46

Who do they play?

0:09:460:09:47

-The three kings.

-LAUGHTER

0:09:470:09:50

No point there, which means

0:09:500:09:52

at the end of that round,

0:09:520:09:53

the teams are tied both on 7.

0:09:530:09:55

It's time for a Christmas disco now.

0:10:060:10:08

Whilst your captains will listen to some Christmas music,

0:10:080:10:11

you will have to choose three words to describe a sports star or team.

0:10:110:10:16

He will then have ten seconds to talk about that subject

0:10:160:10:19

and try and guess what you have said.

0:10:190:10:22

So Matt, you are going first in this one. So out you come.

0:10:220:10:25

Come on then, come on.

0:10:250:10:28

Keep it simple, Matt.

0:10:300:10:32

-Are you ready for your music?

-Oh, yeah.

0:10:320:10:34

Nice? Can you hear me, Matt?

0:10:340:10:36

All right, there, Matt?

0:10:380:10:39

Oh, yeah. OK, jolly good.

0:10:390:10:41

OK, while Matt is listening away, Rachel and Vernon,

0:10:470:10:51

-your topic is...

-I don't know who sang this.

-..Manchester United.

0:10:510:10:54

-What three words or phrases are you going to go for?

-That's easy.

0:10:540:10:59

-Old Trafford.

-Red.

-Red Devils.

0:10:590:11:02

-Champions.

-Alex Ferguson.

0:11:020:11:05

Ferguson is a good one.

0:11:050:11:06

While they're working out what to say,

0:11:060:11:08

let's listen to what Matt's listening to.

0:11:080:11:10

MUSIC: Step Into Christmas by Elton John

0:11:100:11:14

-Ryan Giggs or Fergie?

-Are we done?

0:11:140:11:15

-No.

-Yeah, yeah.

0:11:150:11:17

So, what have you decided on?

0:11:230:11:25

-We think he'll definitely say Old Trafford.

-OK, that's one.

0:11:250:11:29

-We think he'll definitely say red.

-OK.

-What was the other one?

0:11:290:11:33

-Sir Alex Ferguson.

-OK, those are locked in. We are ready.

0:11:330:11:36

OK, Daws, your subject is Manchester United.

0:11:360:11:41

Red Devils, Old Trafford, Alex Ferguson...

0:11:410:11:44

Yeah!

0:11:440:11:45

DRUMMING ON DESK

0:11:490:11:52

Yes!

0:11:520:11:53

Boom!

0:11:530:11:56

-Really?

-Yeah, three from three.

0:11:560:12:00

-Three from three. Unbelievable.

-You're all on the same wavelength.

0:12:000:12:04

-Happy days.

-That's a worry for Amy and Iwan.

0:12:040:12:06

-No, it's not. Come on.

-Up you come, Tuffers.

0:12:060:12:09

Come on, mate.

0:12:090:12:12

On you go, Tuffers.

0:12:160:12:18

# And they wish it could be Christmas every day... #

0:12:180:12:22

OK, team, your subject is Andy Murray.

0:12:240:12:28

Oh, crikey, OK. Scottish.

0:12:280:12:30

-Wimbledon.

-Yeah, it's got to be...

0:12:300:12:33

-MATT:

-He looks like he's changing a tyre at a Formula One race.

0:12:330:12:37

Let's see if his dancing matches the music.

0:12:390:12:41

MUSIC: I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday by Wizard

0:12:410:12:44

We've got to get inside that head.

0:12:540:12:57

I need your answers. OK.

0:12:570:13:00

-Scottish.

-Yeah.

-Scottish.

0:13:000:13:02

-Wimbledon.

-We're debating...

0:13:020:13:04

-Let's go with the obvious.

-Say tennis.

0:13:040:13:06

So Scottish, Wimbledon and tennis.

0:13:060:13:08

OK. Thank you. OK, Tuffers, here we go.

0:13:080:13:12

Welcome back, Tuffers.

0:13:120:13:14

OK, you've got ten seconds, your subject is Andy Murray.

0:13:140:13:17

Wimbledon, Olympics, doubles,

0:13:170:13:20

Judy Murray, Wimbledon,

0:13:200:13:23

tennis balls, tennis nets,

0:13:230:13:25

Olympics, US Open...

0:13:250:13:27

WHISTLE BLOWS

0:13:270:13:29

-Scottish.

-Scottish.

0:13:310:13:33

LAUGHTER

0:13:330:13:35

You got Wimbledon and tennis.

0:13:370:13:40

You got two, you got Wimbledon and tennis

0:13:400:13:42

but Scottish was the one that you just missed out on.

0:13:420:13:47

So, at the end of that round,

0:13:470:13:49

Phil is on 9, Matt's in front on 10.

0:13:490:13:52

As we have got Rachel on the show,

0:14:010:14:04

-we are going to test everybody's maths skills.

-What?

0:14:040:14:08

-Yeah!

-Sporting equations.

0:14:080:14:11

Phil, we are going to start with your team.

0:14:110:14:14

-No.

-I can't even add up two numbers. I am terrible at maths.

0:14:140:14:18

What, one and one?

0:14:180:14:19

-Just about three. Just about three.

-Come on, we can do this.

0:14:190:14:23

Make sure you write this down as you'll only have 30 seconds

0:14:230:14:27

-to work out the answer, OK?

-Gosh.

-Now listen.

0:14:270:14:31

I want the value of the pink ball in snooker, minus the number

0:14:310:14:37

of times Canada have hosted the Winter Olympics,

0:14:370:14:42

plus the number of players in a netball team

0:14:420:14:46

and then finally multiply all of that

0:14:460:14:48

by Matthew Pinsent's Olympic gold medals.

0:14:480:14:52

Your time starts now.

0:14:520:14:53

Right, pick six.

0:14:530:14:54

Six, six. How many Olympics?

0:14:540:14:57

-Six minus...

-How many Olympics?

-Two.

0:14:570:15:00

-Was there one before?

-Quickly.

0:15:000:15:02

Let's just say two.

0:15:020:15:03

Plus netball is...

0:15:030:15:06

-Netball's how many?

-How many's netball?

0:15:060:15:08

Seven? Six? Goal attack.

0:15:080:15:11

-Six.

-Is it?

-Oh, no.

-Times how many medals...

-Four.

0:15:110:15:16

He's got four golds.

0:15:160:15:19

I don't know the netball. Netball, hold on.

COUNTDOWN'S TIME UP JINGLE

0:15:210:15:23

-Time's up.

-I think it's seven.

-I think it is.

0:15:230:15:26

So, what's your answer?

0:15:260:15:28

You had 30 seconds. I need an answer.

0:15:280:15:31

Go on, keep going.

0:15:310:15:33

You can't start the clock again.

0:15:360:15:38

132!

0:15:380:15:39

-132 is our answer, Sue.

-What?

0:15:390:15:41

Talk us through how you got that.

0:15:410:15:44

-You're putting me under pressure.

-How did you get that?

0:15:450:15:48

You do get marks for working out.

0:15:480:15:51

OK, six for the pink ball in snooker.

0:15:510:15:54

I think they have done two Winter Olympics

0:15:540:15:56

but they've probably done more.

0:15:560:15:59

-So that's minus two, plus...

-Which is four.

0:15:590:16:02

-Plus players in netball.

-Which is seven.

0:16:020:16:04

-So that's how many?

-Four plus seven.

0:16:040:16:07

11.

0:16:070:16:08

Multiply by Matthew Pinsent's Olympic gold medals.

0:16:080:16:12

-How many did he get?

-He got four. So 44.

0:16:120:16:15

-44.

-And you said what?

-I can't remember.

0:16:160:16:20

-130...

-I thought it was...

0:16:200:16:23

Can we change our answer to 44?

0:16:230:16:26

You made an absolute state of that.

0:16:260:16:28

What was it? 52?

0:16:290:16:31

-44 was the answer.

-44.

0:16:310:16:33

-I wrote down 44.

-Why did you say 132?

0:16:330:16:35

-Because I thought it was the number of times.

-Oh, the Christmas spirit.

0:16:350:16:40

Well, that was close.

0:16:420:16:44

Right. Over we go.

0:16:440:16:45

Matt, since you have got Rachel on your team yours is a little trickier.

0:16:470:16:51

So, here we go.

0:16:510:16:53

The square root of South Korea's all times summer Olympic medal haul

0:16:530:16:57

multiplied by the circumference of a standard cricket ball in millimetres.

I'm only joking. Here's your real one.

0:17:100:17:12

-I liked the faces as I was reading that.

-Is it 132?

0:17:200:17:25

I've never panicked as much.

0:17:250:17:28

Rachel was ready.

0:17:280:17:30

She was ready, she was going for it.

0:17:300:17:32

She has even drawn the square root symbol.

0:17:320:17:35

OK, this is your real one.

0:17:350:17:37

Are you ready?

0:17:370:17:39

The number of teams in the NFL, divided by the number

0:17:390:17:44

of Rugby World Cups Richie McCaw has played in,

0:17:440:17:48

plus David Beckham's shirt number at LA Galaxy,

0:17:480:17:53

minus Serena Williams' Grand Slam singles titles.

0:17:530:17:58

Serena Williams.

0:18:110:18:14

It could be nearly 20.

0:18:140:18:17

It could be 21.

0:18:170:18:20

-21 is a nice round...

-Do you reckon?

Ten, isn't it?

0:18:280:18:29

COUNTDOWN'S TIME UP JINGLE

0:18:290:18:31

We're stuck on Serena Williams.

0:18:310:18:33

That is the tricky one.

0:18:330:18:36

What are you going to go for?

0:18:360:18:38

-We're going to say...

-That's as good as anything.

0:18:380:18:41

-..ten.

-OK. How did you get there?

0:18:410:18:43

-32 teams in the NFL.

-OK, Richie McCaw?

0:18:430:18:46

I'm going with four, because it was between three and five

0:18:460:18:49

and if you divide 32 by three or five it's a horrible number.

0:18:490:18:52

-That's true.

-But we've got the Riley, so we'll be all right.

0:18:520:18:57

-So we went with four for Richie McCaw.

-Becks' shirt number at LA?

0:18:570:19:01

-23, wasn't it?

-OK.

0:19:010:19:03

And then you had to go with Serena.

0:19:030:19:05

-We thought, "Well, it's high, it's a very high number."

-It is.

0:19:050:19:09

And ten's a nice round number.

0:19:090:19:11

We finished on 10, 21 possibly... Go on, then.

# It's Christmas time

0:21:250:21:28

-Was it the same two...all the way through?

-Yes.

-Just two people!

0:21:280:21:34

Write down your two answers.

0:21:380:21:39

I've got it, I've got it.

0:21:390:21:41

-I think I have it.

-It could still be her.

0:21:410:21:44

-Did he have a goatee?

-Or was that just a weird beard thing?

0:21:480:21:51

-A goatee.

-It's not him.

0:21:510:21:55

-Are you sure?

-I don't think it's him.

0:21:550:21:58

I don't think he's got the thing.

0:21:580:22:00

But he's that build and he's got nice teeth.

0:22:000:22:05

We're going on teeth over here.

0:22:050:22:07

I'm quite happy, quite happy to go with that.

0:22:070:22:10

OK, can you hold up your answers, please? Reveal your answers.

0:22:100:22:14

You've gone for Paula Radcliffe and Gary Lineker.

0:22:140:22:17

No, don't put that on there!

0:22:170:22:20

Oh, no, they've gone for the couple.

-Straight away.

-It's Gail Emms

No way!

0:22:330:22:35

0:22:350:22:37

Anthony Ogogo, of course it is.

One point goes to Phil,

Phil is on 10, Matt team's in front on 12.

We are ending the show with a sprint finish and, Phil,

0:22:580:23:01

as you are trailing, you're first,

0:23:010:23:03

but you'll need to bring one of your team-mates up with you.

0:23:030:23:06

-Who are you going to choose?

-You're good at guessing.

0:23:060:23:09

Amy, you're with me. Come on, Amy.

0:23:090:23:11

OK, Amy and Tuffers, up you come.

0:23:110:23:12

OK, Amy and Phil, you have to pull the cracker, find the word

0:23:180:23:21

and as there are two of you you have to act out the word.

0:23:210:23:23

Iwan, you have to do the guessing. Are you ready?

-Lovely.
