00:00These four people have never met before, but by working as a team they have the chance to win thousands of pounds.
00:05There's just one thing standing in their way.
00:08The chaser.
00:09The chase is on.
00:19Hello and welcome to The Chase.
00:21Today's team of four total strangers think they've got what it takes to beat one of Britain's finest quiz brains and take home thousands of pounds.
00:28Well, do they? Why don't we meet them?
00:31I'm Brenda. I'm 68 and I'm a retired chemistry lecturer from Worcestershire.
00:36I'm Ryan. I'm 20 and I'm a geography student from Hull.
00:40I'm Adam. I'm 35, a sports marketing consultant from Solihull.
00:44I'm Sharon. I'm 43. I'm a leisure centre membership advisor from Liverpool.
00:49So, that's the gang. Now, one by one, they'll try and bring as much money as they can down the table and into the team prize fund.
00:55But, hunting them down every step of the way is the chaser.
00:58Anyone who gets caught, loses their money and is out of the game.
01:02Make it back safely, though, and they will go through to the final chase with a chance to win an equal share of the total prize fund.
01:07And first to face the chaser, it's Brenda.
01:12Hiya, Brenda.
01:13Hiya, Brad.
01:14You alright?
01:14Yes, thanks.
01:15Good stuff. Now, have you ever been on television before?
01:18I have. Just the odd once or twice.
01:20Where?
01:20X Factor last year.
01:23Britain's got talent the year before.
01:25What did you do on X Factor?
01:27Your first choice song wasn't show.
01:29I ended up singing pink because Mr. Cowell wanted something a bit more modern.
01:33So, I sang, so what?
01:35Very good.
01:36Now then, let's get over this first hurdle.
01:38Quickfire questions.
01:39Each correct answer is worth £1,000.
01:42Are you ready?
01:42Yeah.
01:43I wish you luck, Brenda.

02:39Correct.
02:40In 1969, which British driver won his fifth Monaco Grand Prix?
02:46No.
02:47Out of time.
02:48Would have been Graham Hill.
02:497,000 pounds.
02:507,000.
02:51Yeah.
02:51Wonderful.
02:52It is wonderful.
02:53All we've got to do with that 7,000 is get you and it through to the final chase, but
02:57who will you be up against today?
02:59Will it be Mark Lebet, the quiz champ who has a lot of fans?
03:03Oh, sorry.
03:03That should be Flans.
03:05Or is it You Chaser, the Sinner Man, Paul Sinner?
03:08He's the latest advanced technology in quizzes.
03:11He's the iChaser 4.
03:13Or is it Top Barrister, Sean Wallace?
03:15He has the answer to any question and the answer to insomnia.
03:20Or will it be Fossy Nookers herself, Anne Hegarty?
03:22She makes the FBI's most wanted list look like internet dating.
03:27So, who do you fancy taking on, Brenda?
03:29I'd really love to have a go at Mark Lebet.
03:31Would you?
03:31I think Sean's a gentleman and I quite like Anne.
03:35She's a bit like me.
03:36Anne's good.
03:37Are you ready?
03:37Yeah, go on.
03:38It's time to bring on the Chaser.
03:44Oh.
03:44Oh, it's Anne.
03:45It's gotten very chilly in the room.
03:47It's the governess, Anne Hegarty.
03:54Hello, Brenda.
03:56Hello, Anne.
03:56Well, Brenda's got talent.
03:59I have, yeah.
04:00I've got lots of talent.
04:02I'm not going to talk about it all, though.
04:04Okay, Brenda, let's put some money on the table for you.
04:07There is your £7,000.
04:08If you wish to take a step closer to home, the Chaser will offer you...
04:12£2,000.
04:13Not bad opening, Gambit.
04:15However, if you wish to take a step closer to the Chaser, Anne will offer you...
04:19£20,000.
04:21Better have a chat with your team, Brenda.
04:23There you go.
04:24What do you think, team?
04:25I think, Brenda, at this stage, you should stick with the middle one or drop.
04:31I wouldn't be tempted by the bigger offer.
04:33I wouldn't drop, Brenda.
04:34I think you're better than that.
04:35If you feel confident, go up, but I'd stick because we need you in the final round.
04:38I'd like you to take the gamble, but I'd stick with £7,000.
04:42Okay.
04:43However, it's your decision, Brenda.
04:45What would you like to do?
04:46I'll stick with a £7,000, I think.
04:47Okay, £7,000 it is.
04:49Chaser.
04:50I'm not sure if they're a bunch of wimps or if they just don't have any faith in you.
04:53I think they're just being cautious.
04:56Hmm.
04:57Right.
04:58Let us bring some money home, Brenda, shall we?
05:00You will answer the same questions at the same time as the Chaser.
05:03If you're right, you take a step closer to home.
05:05However, if you are wrong, you will stay where you are, giving the Chaser the chance to close the gap.
05:09If you get caught, Brenda, the money has gone, you're out of the game.
05:13For £7,000, the Chaser is on.
05:20Good luck.
05:21Here comes your first question.
05:23Pulling Myself Together is the autobiography of which of TV's Loose Women?
05:30Is it A, Colleen Nolan, B, Sherry Hewson, or C, Denise Welsh?
05:37You've put Denise Welsh.
05:40Yeah.
05:41Happy with that?
05:42Not really.
05:42I guess.
05:43I haven't got the first idea.
05:44Okay.
05:45Correct answer is...
05:47Very good.
05:49Step closer to home already.
05:50That's excellent.
05:51The Chaser has put...
05:55Oh, hello.
05:57Welcome to the show.
05:58I didn't know.
06:00I don't...
06:01I'm usually doing other things at that time.
06:03Can I be honest, Anne?
06:04I don't think it's your sort of show.
06:07Yes, I'm...
06:07They would have tight women.
06:09That little tittle-tattle is not for you, Anne.
06:12Absolutely.
06:13Locked away in your dungeon there with all those IT books and those physics and chemistry
06:17science stuff you read.
06:18Hmm.
06:19Yes.
06:20Come on, Brenda.
06:21We're on a roll.
06:21Let's have a look at your next question.
06:22Who is the patron saint of children?
06:26Is it A, St. Jude, B, St. Nicholas, or C, St. Peter?
06:32You have put...
06:34St. Nicholas.
06:36Got to be, isn't it?
06:37Well, I only thought that because of...
06:39Christmas.
06:39Christmas.
06:40Santa Claus.
06:40Santa Claus is St. Nicholas.
06:42Correct answer is...
06:44Please be right.
06:45Yes!
06:46Get in, Brenda.
06:47The chaser has put...
06:50St. Nicholas as well.
06:53St. Jude?
06:54Oh, patron saint of lost causes.
06:56Ah, okay.
06:57And St. Peter?
06:58Um, oh, patron saint of all sorts of things.
07:04Here's your next question.
07:06In French ski resorts, which colour slopes are the easiest?
07:11Is it A, green, B, blue, C, red?
07:16You've put...
07:18Green.
07:20I've no idea.
07:21I've never been skiing.
07:22Never been skiing.
07:23All right.
07:24Correct answer is...
07:26Well played.
07:27Oh, great, Kate.
07:28Brenda, you're doing great.
07:29There you are.
07:30Two from home.
07:31The chaser has put...
07:34Blue and gets it wrong.
07:36Having a nightmare.
07:38We're both guessing.
07:39You're guessing right.
07:40I know.
07:40And I'm guessing wrong.
07:41You shouldn't be guessing, chaser.
07:43I didn't know that.
07:44Here's your next question.
07:45Las Ventas in Madrid is Spain's largest what?
07:52A, football stadium.
07:54B, bullring.
07:55C, shopping centre.
07:58You have put...
08:00Shopping centre.
08:02I haven't got the fakest idea.
08:04I've only been to Spain once.
08:05That was Loret de Mar, so...
08:07Loret de Mar?
08:08Loret de Mar.
08:09Loret de Mar.
08:10Correct answer is...
08:12Oh, it's bullring.
08:15Oh, unlucky.
08:17Got to stay where we are.
08:18The chaser's put...
08:20See, I told you we thought...
08:23I thought bullring was too obvious.
08:24It's Spain.
08:25Yes, indeed.
08:27Three wrong though, chaser.
08:28They'll start asking me things I know.
08:30You're not going to catch us.
08:31You're not going to catch us.
08:32Come on, Brendan.
08:33I don't think we can do it.
08:33Here's your next question.
08:36Which of these acts has had the most UK number one singles?
08:40Is it A, Genesis, B, Peter Gabriel, or C, Phil Collins?
08:46You've put...
08:48Genesis.
08:50Yeah, but weren't they all in the same band?
08:51Yeah, they were all in Genesis.
08:53That's what I mean.
08:53That's why I went to them.
08:55So would they get more number ones when they were together than when they were separate?
08:58Oh, I see what you're saying, yeah.
08:59Correct answer is...
09:00Phil Collins.
09:01Always gut feeling, Brenda.
09:07Stay where we are with £7,000.
09:08The chaser has put...
09:11Yeah, gets it right.
09:14Here's your next question.
09:16Which TV vampire series stars Oscar-winning actress Anna Paquin?
09:23Is it A, being human?
09:25B, true blood?
09:26C, the vampire diaries?
09:29Give us a chance, Brenda, to ask a question.
09:31Goodness.
09:32All right, here you go.
09:33You've put...
09:33True blood.
09:36Like it?
09:37Oh, I love it.
09:37Do you?
09:38Yeah.
09:38All right, correct answer is...
09:42Yes!
09:42Brilliant, we're one from home.
09:44The chaser's put...
09:46True blood as well.
09:48All right, now I've got to say, team, what did we have here?
09:51What was it?
09:51Yeah, £20,000.
09:52£20,000.
09:53£20,000.
09:53Wow, wow, wow, wow.
09:55Look.
09:56I couldn't risk it, really.
09:58The chaser's aren't invincible.
10:00You must understand that as well.
10:01There's stuff that comes up that they won't know either.
10:03All right, one question from home.
10:05£7,000.
10:05Here we go, come on.
10:08In 2001, Trina Gulliver of England won her first world championship in what sport?
10:15Was it A, billiards, B, squash, C, darts?
10:21You've put...
10:23Darts.
10:25Oh, yes.
10:25You know this?
10:26No.
10:27I used to play darts.
10:28I was the laboratory B, darts team captain at one point.
10:31Well, look, if you've got this right, you've romped home with £7,000.
10:34Amazing.
10:35It is.
10:35Well...
10:36The correct answer is...
10:37Yes!
10:43Well done, Brendan.
10:44You've got 20-0, stay here, stay here.
10:46Stay here, stay here.
10:47There you go.
10:48Well, what a game.
10:50Yes, I could easily come to regret that.
10:52You could be useful in the final chase.
10:54Oh, nice.
10:54Brenna, take your place.
10:56There you are, you're through to the final chase.
10:57Congratulations.
10:58Well, well, well.
11:00Well, she does pink impressions.
11:02Let's get this party started.
11:04Let's get this party started.
11:07Indeed.
11:08Well, a nightmare start for the governess.
11:10Three contestants left.
11:11Come back after the break.
11:12Next to face the chaser, it's Ryan.

11:21Now, then, brothers.
11:21Now, you're a geography student up in Hull.
11:23Yes.
11:24Are you from Hull originally?
11:25Yeah, I live in, well, just outside of Hull.
11:27Brilliant.
11:27Now, geography, that's going to be your, no.
11:31No, I'm dreading a geography question coming up.
11:34My UK geography in particular is poor.
11:36Is it?
11:37Yeah.
11:37Is it?
11:38Yeah.
11:39Is that why you stayed near your hometown to go to university?
11:41You don't have travelled?
11:42Outside of Hull, I just do not know.
11:43All right.
11:44Let's do this journey first.
11:46I'm going to ask you quick five questions against the clock, each one worth a grand.
11:49I wish you luck.

12:56Still brilliant.
12:57£8,000.
12:59Yeah, I'm not bad.
12:59Not bad.
13:00That's fantastic.
13:01All we've got to do now is get you back to sit next to Brenda in the final chase.
13:05You ready?
13:05Yep.
13:06It's time to face the chaser.
13:07Hello, Ryan.
13:21Afternoon, Anne.
13:22I was rather impressed.
13:24I kept expecting you to lose your way and you really didn't.
13:27A bit like you in that first one.
13:28Right.
13:31Let's put some money on the table.
13:32Yep.
13:32Three steps ahead of the chaser.
13:33That's where you start.
13:35If you wish to take a step closer to home, the chaser will offer you.
13:39Again, £2,000.
13:41£2,000.
13:41However, if you wish to take a step closer to the chaser, she will offer you.
13:45£24,000.
13:46Very nice.
13:47£24,000.
13:48Have a chat with your team, Ryan.
13:49Guys, what do you think?
13:51You were excellent in that round.
13:52Go for the £24,000.
13:54She's having a mare and I think she's there for the taking.
13:56So I think you can do £24,000.
13:59If you want to be on the safe side, make sure you get back here.
14:01Go for the age.
14:02Thank you, Brenda.
14:03There speaks experience.
14:04Right.
14:05Ryan, the decision is yours.
14:06£2,000, £8,000 or £24,000?
14:08What will it be?
14:09As a student, I'm going to have to drop to £2,000.
14:12Right.
14:13You're going to drop to £2,000.
14:14Let's find out what the rest of the team think of that.
14:16I thought he could have gone for the eight, really.
14:18I just think you're better than that, Ryan.
14:19I understand why you've done it, but I think you're better than that.
14:22Sharon?
14:22You're underestimating yourself, hon.
14:24You should have gone for fun.
14:25Chaser?
14:26You're scared, aren't you?
14:27I was really hoping you were going to come up.
14:29Do you know what?
14:30I thought he was going to as well.
14:31I honestly did.
14:32However, this is where we are.
14:34£2,000 it is.
14:35Are you ready, Ryan?
14:36Yep.
14:36For £2,000, Ryan, the chase is on.
14:44I wish you luck.
14:45Here comes your first question.
14:46The M69 motorway runs between which two cities?
14:52Is it A, Manchester and Chester?
14:54B, Bristol and Cardiff?
14:56C, Leicester and Coventry?
15:01You have put...
15:03Leicester and Coventry.
15:05You don't know this, do you?
15:06I told you, my UK geography was poor.
15:08Correct answer is...
15:10Oh, it's going to be one of them days, I can see this.
15:15The chase has put.
15:18Knew that.
15:19I don't know if she did.
15:21Manchester to Chester is the M56.
15:22And Bristol to Cardiff is simply the M4.
15:25You can't underestimate the chasers, Ryan.
15:28Here's your next question.
15:31Which of these combined heights is taller than the Empire State Building and its TV mast?
15:37Is it A, three Blackpool Towers, B, eight Nelson's Columns, or C, 20 Angels of the North?
15:44That's a tough one, isn't it?
15:46Wow.
15:47Yeah.
15:47That is tough.
15:48You've put...
15:49Three Blackpool Towers.
15:52Yeah.
15:52How tall is Blackpool Tower?
15:55Not a Scooby.
15:56All right.
15:57Correct answer is...
16:00Mm, that's a surprise.
16:04A guess is as good as a guess, isn't it?
16:06It is, yeah.
16:07Good man.
16:07Two from home.
16:08The chaser has put...
16:09Bet she gets it wrong.
16:11Get in there.
16:14I didn't know either.
16:15All right.
16:16But listen, laughs aside.
16:18Yeah, yeah, I know what you're going to say.
16:19I should have gone up.
16:20These questions are random.
16:22You've got to go for it.
16:23All right.
16:23I'm sticking to my belief, and that's what I would be happy with, so...
16:27Two from home.
16:27Here's your next question.
16:28Good luck, mate.
16:30Which golfing legend was the first to hold all four majors at the same time?
16:35A, Arnold Palmer.
16:37B, Jack Nicklaus.
16:38C, Tiger Woods.
16:43You have put...
16:45Tiger Woods.
16:46Tiger Woods, yeah.
16:47It rings a bell, maybe Tiger Woods.
16:50Correct answer is...
16:53Unbelievable.
16:56One from home with your 2,000 pounds.
16:58The chaser has put...
17:00Yes, Tiger Woods.
17:03Very good.
17:03Right.
17:04Here's what I'm hoping is going to be your last question.
17:06It means you've got it right in through with Brenda.
17:07Here it is.
17:08Here's your next question.
17:09In the TV series, what was the name of either the engine's driver?
17:14Was it A, Williams the coal, B, Jones the steam, or C, Evans the fire?
17:21You have put Jones the steam.
17:28Happy with that?
17:29No, not a clue.
17:30But I went with Jones because it's, well, the old popular Welsh last names, aren't they?
17:36Is there another guess with you?
17:36Another guess, yeah.
17:37Right, okay.
17:38Let's go through with 2,000 pounds.
17:40The correct answer is...
17:45Fantastic stuff.
17:472,000 pounds.
17:50Yeah.
17:51Woo-hoo-hoo.
17:52And it could have been so much more.
17:54Yes, I know.
17:55But nonetheless, the two grand you was after, that's what you've got.
17:58Take your place in the final chase.
17:59You're sitting next to Brenda.
18:00Well played.
18:02Ooh.
18:03Two out of two slipped through your fingers.
18:06And those two put together could be quite a dangerous team.
18:09Their cash builders was very good.
18:10They were.
18:11Next to face the governess is Adam.
18:16Welcome to the show.
18:17Hello, Bradley.
18:18Now, if you won some big money, what would you want to do with it?
18:21It's probably a long-held ambition.
18:23I'd like to go to Philadelphia and run up the steps that were in the Rocky film.
18:27And how much would it cost you to get there?
18:29I reckon three, four, five grand most.
18:32Yeah.
18:32That would probably get me there.
18:34I'm back.
18:34Oh, that would be wonderful.
18:35Well, let's see if we can get you there then, shall we, Adam?
18:37I hope so.
18:38Quick fire questions against the club.
18:40Are you ready?
18:40I am.
18:41I wish you luck.
18:42Your time starts now.

19:04Bam Bam.
19:05Correct.
19:05Who played Sir Sidney Rough Diamond in Carry On Up the Khyber?
19:11Sid.
19:12Oh, Sid.
19:14Owen.
19:14No.
19:15No, it's not Sid Owen.
19:16It's Sid James.
19:17Oh, who advertised his bodybuilding lessons by saying,
19:20you too can have a body like mine?
19:22Charles Atlas.
19:23Correct.

19:36In the title of his play, what was Tennessee Williams' menagerie made of?
19:40Glass.
19:40Correct.
19:41Which American designed the first commercially successful sewing machine?
19:45Singer.
19:46It was indeed Singer, but we're just out of time.
19:48Not bad though, 6,000.
19:50Let's try and get that and you into the final chase alongside Brenda and Ryan.
19:53Are you ready?
19:54It's time to face the chaser.
20:09Hello, Adam.
20:10Hello, man.
20:11Another worthy opponent, it looks like.
20:13Well, I hope so.
20:14Hmm.
20:15Let's put some money on the table.
20:16Here we go.
20:176,000 pounds.
20:18If you wish to take a step closer to the home, the chaser will offer you.
20:21600 pounds.
20:22Is that all?
20:23Yeah.
20:23Boo hiss.
20:24However, if you wish to take a step closer to the chaser, she will offer you.
20:28Ryan wouldn't take it.
20:29Let's see if you will.
20:3024,000 pounds.
20:33Have a chat with the Tim.
20:34What do you think, guys?
20:36You're wanting to go to Philadelphia and you say that might cost about three grand.
20:39Even if you take the lowest offer, you would be looking at taking away that if we won.
20:42Don't gamble either way.
20:44It's up for six.
20:45Yeah, it is a bit risky going for the 24.
20:48I'd go for the six.
20:49Definitely.
20:49Clanky.
20:50There we go.
20:51Right.
20:52What are you going to do?
20:53I think I'm going to go for the six.
20:55I'm going to stick with what we've got.
20:56Okay.
20:57Six it is, Adam.
20:58Chaser.
20:58Well, it's better than going low again.
21:00I was beginning to worry that the boys were letting Brenda do all the hard work.
21:05Right.
21:06For 6,000 pounds, the chase is on.
21:08Good luck.
21:13Here comes your first question.
21:17How old was Britney Spears when she had her first UK number one single?
21:22A, 15.
21:23B, 16.
21:24C, 17.
21:28You put 17.
21:31Happy with that?
21:33I'm actually not now.
21:34Now I've done it, I'm kind of thinking she might have been a bit younger.
21:36I'm just thinking maybe she might have been 16 now.
21:40Correct answer is...
21:4217.
21:44Well played.
21:46The chaser has put...
21:51Oh.
21:52They're laughing.
21:53They're laughing.
21:54I knew she couldn't be as young as she looked because she looked about eight.
21:58But, yeah, got it wrong.
22:00Here's your next question.
22:01Who was the first of these to win an Oscar for Best Director?
22:07A, Roman Polanski, B, Woody Allen, or C, Milos Forman?
22:15You've put...
22:17Roman Polanski.
22:20Not a clue.
22:21I've never heard of Milos Forman, so I've discounted him.
22:25All right.
22:27Correct answer is...
22:30It's Milos Forman.
22:33Do you know what?
22:33I've never heard of him either.
22:35Oh, that's good.
22:36Staying where you are.
22:37The chaser has put...
22:39Yes, Milos Forman comes onto the table.
22:42One flew over the cuckoo's nest.
22:44Of course, one flew over the cuckoo's nest.
22:46And also Amadeus.
22:48Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
22:49Something you knew, Anne, that was?
22:51Yes.
22:52I do know some things.
22:54Here's your next question.
22:56In the motto of the monarch, what does Dieu et mon droit mean?
23:02Is it A, God and my right?
23:04B, God and my country?
23:06C, God and my love?
23:09You've put...
23:11God and my right.
23:13Happy with that?
23:14I think so.
23:16Correct answer is...
23:18Fantastic.
23:20Well played.
23:20The chaser has put...
23:24Yeah, and we'll know that and closes that gap.
23:28Here's your next question.
23:31Which art museum is housed in a former railway station?
23:35Is it A, the Hermitage?
23:37B, Musee d'Orsay?
23:38Or C, the Fizzi?
23:43You put...
23:44The Musee d'Orsay.
23:46You like that?
23:47Erm, it's the only one I've been to, and it kind of looked a bit like a railway station.
23:52Correct answer is...
23:56Fantastic.
23:58Two from home.
23:59The chaser's put...
24:02Yeah, you knew that.
24:03The Fizzi used to be office space, and the Hermitage, I believe, was Catherine the Great's palace, one of her palaces.
24:11Oh, get her.
24:13Here's your next question.
24:16Which of the big cats has the loudest roar?
24:19A, a lion, B, tiger, C, a leopard.
24:26What sort of a question is that?
24:27Just what I was thinking.
24:29You have put...
24:31Leopard.
24:32Lion is the most obvious, and I just think, do you know what? It's going to be the one that you don't think of.
24:38Yeah.
24:38I don't know. Depends where the leopard is.
24:41I know.
24:41I think it depends what he's doing at the time.
24:42I know.
24:43Do you know what I mean?
24:44That's ridiculous. The leopard might have a sore throat, might not feel well.
24:47Exactly, won't have taken laryngitis into account.
24:50The correct answer is...
24:53Lion. The most obvious one.
24:55The most obvious.
24:56We've got to stay where we are.
24:58The chase has put...
24:59It's a ridiculous question that was, by the way.
25:05How can they tell, though?
25:06If you've got a lion and a leopard on one continent, and a tiger on another continent, how the hell are they going to know?
25:12I can't hear him.
25:14He's on a different continent. He must be really loud.
25:18It's like the two whales.
25:19When whales are screeching and stuff, the scientists have actually found out what they say, and they can hear each other from, like, thousands of miles away.
25:26And they've understood it, that the whale is actually saying, can you hear me now?
25:34Here's your next question.
25:38Tom Fletcher is the lead singer of which boy band?
25:41A. JLS.
25:42B. One Direction.
25:44C. McFly.
25:45C. McFly.
25:47You've put...
25:49McFly. Happy with that?
25:50I don't know anyone in McFly at all, so I'm just kind of going with that.
25:54Correct answer is...
25:57C. McFly.
25:58Actually, it is McFly.
25:59All right. One from home. There we are.
26:01The chaser has put...
26:03Get it wrong.
26:05C. Get him.
26:06Not terribly interested in boy bands.
26:09I don't do young men.
26:10It's a five o'clock show. Stop that.
26:12All right. Let this be your last question. Here we go.
26:15Which of these Monopoly properties is the most valuable?
26:19A. Piccadilly.
26:20B. Regent Street.
26:22C. Trafalgar Square.
26:26You have put...
26:27Regent Street.
26:29I can just picture Regent Street being green,
26:32which is the next highest one after the dark blues and Mayfair.
26:36Mayfair. All right. Okay.
26:38Fingers crossed it's Regent Street.
26:39Are you ready to go through with six grand?
26:41I'm ready.
26:42We'll find out after the break.
26:44Welcome back.
26:48Adam here is one correct answer.
26:49Away from going through into the final chase.
26:52Now, before the break, I asked him which of these Monopoly properties is the most valuable.
26:56Adam said it was B. Regent Street.
26:58Fingers crossed, mate.
26:59Are you ready?
27:00The correct answer is...
27:01Well done. Put it there.
27:06Stay where you are.
27:07Just for a sec for me.
27:10I was using the same logic, but couldn't catch you up.
27:15Adam, don't take your seat.
27:17Next to Brenda and Ryan.
27:18Fifteen grand in the prize fund so far.
27:21We're doing very well.
27:21We've clearly got some really good contestants.
27:24Are you feeling the pressure?
27:25Certainly not.
27:26Well, the pressure may be on Sharon because she's up next.
27:30From Liverpool.
27:33I am, yes.
27:33Now, you are a leisure centre membership advisor.
27:36I am.
27:36Have you worked at the centre for long?
27:38I've worked there for about 25 years.
27:40Previously, I was a lifeguard.
27:42All right.
27:42Now, are you a competitive person?
27:44Very competitive.
27:45I swam for years competitively.
27:47Really?
27:47Yeah.
27:47This is very unusual for the first three to go through like this.
27:51I mean, Anne isn't having the greatest day, I have to say, our chaser.
27:54Yeah, I've noticed that.
27:55Can you go through?
27:56I hope so.
27:57Well, I wish you luck.

28:56No, it's shredded wheat.
28:58The lightning conductor was invented by which American scientist?
29:01That was Benjamin Franklin.
29:03£5,000 though, Sharon.
29:05Not too bad.
29:05Not too bad at all.
29:07Building up the pot nicely.
29:08However, it's time to face the chaser.
29:10Hello, Anne.
29:23Hello, Sharon.
29:24You may be the nearest thing this team has to a weak link, but, uh...
29:29Yes, it's not depressingly good.
29:31No pressure at all.
29:32It's very annoying.
29:33No pressure at all.
29:34Let's put some money on the table.
29:35There we are.
29:36There's your £5,000.
29:37If you wish to take a step closer to the home, Sharon, the chaser will offer you...
29:40Minus £1,000.
29:42Yes.
29:42But if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, she will offer you...
29:48£30,000.
29:51The chat with your team, Sharon.
29:53What do you think, Dan?
29:55Sharon, I think, uh, I'd go with the five and get yourself over here.
29:59Even though it's minus £1,000, the aim is get back here and it's another step on that ladder.
30:04Right.
30:05Brenda.
30:05Please don't go the minus £1,000.
30:08Take the five.
30:09Thank you, team.
30:10It is your decision, though, Sharon.
30:12I'll go for the £5,000.
30:14I'm not going to risk the Percy.
30:16All right, £5,000 it is.
30:18Chaser.
30:18Did I hear rightly?
30:20It was Ryan saying he would have taken the minus £1,000.
30:22Yes, you heard correct, ma'am.
30:24What's wrong with that?
30:25The youth of today.
30:27Something for nothing.
30:28OK, for £5,000, the chase is on.
30:35Good luck.
30:36Here comes your first question.
30:37Blitz, draw, play and roll out are terms in which sport?
30:44A, American football, B, baseball or C, ice hockey?
30:50You put...
30:52Ice hockey.
30:53Yep.
30:53You know that?
30:54No.
30:54Guess?
30:55Yes.
30:55Correct answer is...
30:58American football, staying where you are.
31:00The chasers put...
31:03Also went ice hockey.
31:06No terms I don't know.
31:07Ice hockey is a game I don't really know.
31:09You don't know a lot today either.
31:11Here's your next question.
31:13Samoa is a part of what Pacific region?
31:16A, Micronesia, B, Polynesia or C, Melanesia?
31:21You put...
31:24Polynesia.
31:26It's more familiar to me.
31:28I don't know the other ones.
31:29What about amnesia?
31:31Yeah.
31:32Correct answer is...
31:35Well played.
31:37Step closer to home.
31:38The chasers put...
31:41Brilliant.
31:42And the chaser comes onto the table.
31:44Here's your next question.
31:45Traditionally, oysters should only be eaten when which letter appears in the month's name?
31:52A, J, B, R, C, S.
31:57You've put...
31:59J.
32:00I love oysters.
32:02Should only June and July, yes?
32:03Yes.
32:04Correct answer is...
32:06It's R, staying where you are.
32:09The chaser's put...
32:11Ah, I knew that and closes the gap.
32:15Why is that then?
32:16I think it's something to do with their reproductive cycle.
32:19Okay.
32:19Oysters are pregnant at that time and they taste a bit disgusting.
32:22Thank you for that.
32:23Here's the next question.
32:26Which of these queen consorts was refused admission to her husband's coronation at Westminster Abbey?
32:33A, Henrietta Maria of France, B, Alexandra of Denmark or C, Caroline of Brunswick?
32:41You've put...
32:46Do you know this is a tough question?
32:48No, it's a complete guess.
32:49Yeah.
32:49Complete guess.
32:50Correct answer is...
32:52Come on, be right.
32:55I'll tell her.
32:57We're good at guessing, Dan, here.
33:00The chaser has put...
33:01Yes, obviously we'll get that right and stays the two steps behind.
33:05She was married to George IV and apparently when he first set eyes on her, he was so shocked.
33:12He said, could someone get me a glass of brandy, please?
33:15Because she was...
33:17Ugly?
33:18She was ugly.
33:19She was fat.
33:20She didn't change her underwear very often.
33:21But yes, he divorced her as soon as he could.
33:24And at the coronation, she felt that she ought to be crowned.
33:27So she was actually running round and round the abbey hammering on the doors.
33:30Oh.
33:31However, here we go.
33:33Here's your next question.
33:36Which of these has the highest total?
33:39Is it A, 10 times 20?
33:40B, 12 times 18?
33:42Or C, 15 times 15?
33:46You have put...
33:4815 15s.
33:50It's a wrong question for me.
33:53Yeah, you know, but it's a half a chance.
33:55Right, correct answer is...
33:58Lucky guess, girl.
34:01Lucky guess, two from home.
34:03The chaser has put...
34:06Yes.
34:07She has also put the right answer.
34:09All right, I think 15 15s is nearly 741.
34:12I bet it is.
34:15Remember kids, do your homework.
34:17You don't want to end up like me.
34:19With two from home.
34:21Here's the next question.
34:24What is a bodkin?
34:25A, needle.
34:26B, pie, C, wagon.
34:32You've put...
34:33Needle.
34:34Happy with that?
34:35Not really.
34:36I was hoping that my cation past mice have actually come into that,
34:40but I couldn't think of anything connected with.
34:42Paris.
34:43No.
34:43Correct answer is...
34:46Well played.
34:47One from home.
34:47Brilliant stuff.
34:48The chaser's put.
34:51Also needle.
34:52Knows that.
34:53Yeah.
34:53It's a big, thick, darling needle.
34:55Thank you for that.
34:56Well, one from home with 5,000 pounds.
34:58Could be a full house.
34:59Good luck, Sharon.
35:00Here's your next question.
35:01Johnny Depp's debut film role was in which horror franchise?
35:09A, Halloween.
35:10B, Nightmare on Elm Street.
35:13C, Friday the 13th.
35:14You have put...
35:18Nightmare on Elm Street.
35:20You're happy with that?
35:20Yes.
35:21I just love horror films, horror movies, books.
35:24Right.
35:25If it's true, we're going through.
35:26The correct answer is...
35:27Well played, Sharon.
35:37I think we're having a bit of a horror movie myself, but you knew that one, didn't you?
35:41It was the original Nightmare on Elm Street.
35:43It was the only one that did, no.
35:44The only one out of the questions you've had, you did know?
35:47I positively did know, yeah.
35:48What a team.
35:50Sharon, go and take your seat next to the rest of the gang.
35:53There you are.
35:55Well, I have to say, this doesn't happen very often.
35:57No, it doesn't.
35:59But, of course, in the final chase, they won't have alternatives to choose from.
36:02Well, the gang of four there go through to the final chase.
36:05Total prize fund, 20,000 pounds.
36:08Five grand each.
36:09That'll be nice.
36:10Will they go home with chains jangling in their pocket?
36:12Come back and find out after the break.
36:14See you in a minute.
36:16Oh, I'm looking forward to this.
36:17Welcome back.
36:18Brenda, Ryan, Adam and Sharon have all made it through to the final chase.
36:23A rare occurrence, I have to say.
36:25There's 20,000 pounds in the total prize fund.
36:28Now, on the buzzer and against the clock, the team must answer as many questions as they can.
36:32Each right answer, of course, puts them a step further away from the chaser.
36:35Then the chaser will have the same amount of time to try and catch the team.
36:39If she does, the team go home with nothing.
36:40If she doesn't, they'll all go home with an equal share of 20,000 pounds.
36:45That's five grand each.
36:47Let me tell you, you could have quite easily accrued 98,000 pounds.
36:52Now then, it's not often I say this.
36:55Four of you have made it through to the final chase, giving you a four-step automatic headstop on a chaser.
