00:00This is The Cube, where just seven games stand between you and a quarter of a million pounds.
00:08These games are simple, but when made inside The Cube, everything changes.
00:16I'm confident I could do it.
00:22I feel so I'm a bit dropped in.
00:24Have you got what it takes to beat The Cube?
00:30The Cube!
00:44The Cube!
00:51This is The Cube!
00:53Seven simple games stand between you and a quarter of a million pounds.
00:58Unfortunately, nothing is simple inside The Cube.
01:03Let's meet our first contestant, Paul McDonald!
01:06All right, so you're Paul.
01:14Yes, I am.
01:15Okay, Paul, where are you from?
01:16From Glasgow.
01:17And what do you do for a living?
01:18I am a surgical salesperson.
01:20Okay, and who have you brought with you?
01:22I brought my lovely fiancée, Julianne.
01:24Uh-huh.
01:25I brought my good friend Michelle, friend Tommy, and Duncan.
01:28Hello, Duncan.
01:29Hello.
01:30So, why do you think you can beat The Cube?
01:34Right, because I have trained so hard with ping pong balls and pots.
01:38What sort of stuff have you done?
01:40What sort of stuff have you done?
01:41Um, Julianne's fired ping pong balls at a tube of me at high speed, which has left me looking
01:44as well I've had measles and blindfolding myself with towels and walking into walls.
01:49So, you've just got to hope that tonight, one of those things that you have practiced
01:54and worked on appears inside The Cube.
01:57Yep.
01:58Fingers crossed.
01:59It could be worth a quarter of a million pounds.
02:01Whew!
02:02So, game one is worth a thousand pounds.
02:05Let's see what The Cube has for you.
02:12Reaction.
02:15This is The Body.
02:17An expert in all games played within The Cube.
02:20When the game starts, the floor of The Cube will turn red.
02:24As soon as this happens, you must respond by pressing the button.
02:28You must react in 0.3 seconds or under to succeed.
02:32So, how quick are you, Paul?
02:37There it is.
02:38There's your first game.
02:39What do you think?
02:40Yeah, I think, um, I hope that my wasted youth in front of a Playstation 3 is going to
02:45come in handy.
02:46So, quite confident.
02:48So, you're just going to do it with your thumbs then, are you?
02:50Exactly.
02:52At this point of the game, The Cube has given you a simplify.
02:54That means you can go in there.
02:55If you're having trouble with something, you can say simplify.
02:57The Cube will make the game easier.
02:59You can only use it once.
03:00Yep.
03:02Happy?
03:03Very.
03:04You desperately want to get in there, don't you?
03:06I'm etching.
03:07Totally etching.
03:08You are on your way.
03:09For one thousand pounds, Paul, enter The Cube.
03:13You are now in The Cube.
03:25It's nice.
03:26It's alright.
03:27Nice.
03:28Calm.
03:29Nice.
03:30Serenity itself.
03:31Well, here we go.
03:32This is going to shatter the peace for you.
03:35The minute the floor turns red, you've got to hit that button.
03:39And you must react within 0.3 seconds.
03:42Anything over and you will lose a life to The Cube.
03:46When you're ready, The Cube will start the game.
03:50You tell me when you're ready.
03:52I'm ready.
03:54Watch the floor.
04:09That was quick.
04:10How do you think you did?
04:11Did you think you got it under 0.3?
04:13I think I've done it.
04:15I think.
04:16Feeling confident?
04:18No.
04:19Would you like to see how you've done?
04:21I've set myself up for a fall.
04:23Cube, show me your time.
04:24Yes!
04:25Just before I show you something really fantastic up there, can I stand here and let me tell you
04:39that that is the fastest anyone has ever hit that button.
04:44And that's got you a thousand pounds.
04:49Game two is for two thousand pounds.
04:52Let's look inside The Cube.
04:53Velocity.
04:54Paul.
04:55From the moment the floor flashes red, you will have exactly four seconds to roll the ball into
04:56the target zone before it is blocked.
04:58You will need to be precise with your timing and speed to succeed.
05:05You weren't expecting that.
05:06As soon as that came up, you said, what the hell is that?
05:12You're talking to a cube geek because I've been studying it and obviously, well, I think that's a new game.
05:19Did you honestly think we were going to come back with a new series and all the same games that we had the first time around?
05:25I thought you might have favoured me for the old Scottish accent and thought, we'll just let this guy give him a minute to run.
05:30Listen, it's not us.
05:31It's the cube.
05:32Aw.
05:33Okay.
05:34Here's a statistic.
05:35On average, this takes two lives.
05:37You've got nine.
05:38Yeah.
05:39It's just a ball game.
05:40All you've got to do for £2,000 is to roll the ball.
05:42Do you want to show me how it's done?
05:43Oh, see, sadly, I'll be out here.
05:44All the same games that we had the first time around.
05:45All the same games that we had the first time around.
05:46I thought you might have favoured me for the old Scottish accent and thought, we'll just let this guy give him a minute to run.
05:51Listen, it's not us.
05:52It's the cube.
05:53Okay.
05:54Here's a statistic.
05:55On average, this takes two lives.
05:58You've got nine.
05:59Yeah.
06:00It's just a ball game.
06:01All you've got to do for £2,000 is to roll the ball.
06:04Do you want to show me how it's done?
06:05Well, see, sadly, I'll be out here and you'll be in there.
06:08But you do have a trial run.
06:10Now, from this point on, this means that you can try the game and decide whether or not you want to take on the challenge.
06:15There's no pressure.
06:16You won't lose a life if you fail.
06:17But, of course, if you get it right, then you don't gain anything and you'll have to do it again.
06:21Okay, so that's your trial run.
06:23I might not do it the first time, but I think it's one of these games, if you get the timing and I can gauge it right, I should get it the same time.
06:29What are you going to do then? Are you going to go in there? Are you going to play? Are you going to take a trial run?
06:32No, I'm going straight for it.
06:33Straight in.
06:34Step into the cube.
06:45If you're ready, the cube will start the game by flashing the floor red.
06:50Let's see how accurate you are.
06:52Good luck, Paul.
06:54Okay, I'm ready.
06:55Ready?
06:56Cube, start the game.
07:01Cube, start the game.
07:17Eight lives remaining.
07:20That's a life gone.
07:21Yep.
07:22So it's clear that it doesn't roll as fast as you thought it was going to roll.
07:26Totally, yeah.
07:27So you said that you felt comfortable that if you lost a life, you'd get it on the second one.
07:32There's more traction.
07:33There's more traction.
07:34The ball's lighter.
07:35I thought it would roll faster, so I think I've got a good feel for what I need to do.
07:39Okay, pick up the ball.
07:40Yep.
07:41Get yourself in position and tell us when you are ready for the cube to start the game.
07:53Good luck, Paul.
07:54This is for two grand.
07:56Yep, I'm ready.
07:57Okay, cube, start the game.
08:14Seven lives remaining.
08:17Nice.
08:20Nice, eh?
08:22Strange.
08:23It just, you feel as though you're releasing it really fast and it just seems to slow down
08:26rather than pick up pace, so I'm going to have to give it some gusto.
08:32It's taken you by surprise, isn't it?
08:34It is, it is.
08:35Yeah.
08:36It definitely has.
08:37Pick up the ball.
08:39So, so far this game has taken two lives from you.
08:44Come on.
08:45Seven lives remaining.
08:46You've got to simplify.
08:47Do you remember that statistic I gave you before you went in there?
08:52You're now completely on average.
08:56Ideally, the statistic should mean that you get it this next time.
08:59Okay.
09:00Ready?
09:01Yes.
09:02Ready.
09:03Cube, start the game.
09:04Oh, yes.
09:05Oh, yes!
09:06Yes!
09:07Oh, yes!
09:20Oh, yes!
09:22Oh, yes!
09:24This entire studio is holding its breath, Ben.
09:42Well done.
09:43You have £2,000.
09:47The next game is worth £10,000.
09:51It's game three.
09:52Let's see what's inside the cube this time.
09:59Multisphere.
10:04Paul, you will release 20 balls into the cube.
10:08When the floor flashes red, you have 15 seconds to pick them up and place them in the container.
10:16You will need both speed and hand-eye coordination to succeed.
10:22Well, there you go.
10:26There's your game.
10:27What are you going to do?
10:29Just hold the thought because we'll be back after the break.
10:32Paul, 20 balls will be released into the cube.
10:48You have 15 seconds to pick them up and place them back in the container.
10:52You have seven lives, your Simplify and your Trial Rock remaining.
10:58So, Paul, for £10,000, are you quick enough?
11:02So, you've seen this one before.
11:05I definitely saw this one many times.
11:06Yeah, I've repeated it on the internet, watched it back and back again.
11:10Oh, you seriously have done some practice, haven't you?
11:12It's worth a lot of money, so, of course, yeah.
11:15So, knowing what this entails and knowing how it's gone wrong for other people in the past, what's in your head?
11:23My ethos in this game is, obviously, get yourself in a favourable starting position and try and pick up as many.
11:29So, I'm going to try and pick up four, if not five, at a time.
11:32OK.
11:32So, four attempts at picking them up.
11:33The statistics for this game are that 20% of people do it on their first go.
11:38Young males are the best performers here.
11:41This is for £10,000.
11:42What would £10,000 mean to you, Paul?
11:46That money would start to seriously change our lives.
11:50Two young daughters want to move house in a credit crunch.
11:56Need to get married.
11:57There's a list of things that money requires.
12:00So, to be honest, now I'm on serious money and it's going to make a difference to us.
12:05You've got your Simplify, you've still got your trial run, so you're in terrific shape for this.
12:09What are you going to do?
12:10I'm straight in there and go for it and do my best.
12:14Paul, enter the queue.
12:26If you're ready, Paul, then release the balls.
12:40Make sure you don't touch any of the balls, but stand where you want to.
12:46What do you think of the spread that you've got compared to the other ones that you've watched?
12:50Well, I was hoping they'd all just go in that corner right now.
12:52But I think it's reasonable.
12:56I'm trying to think whether I should go to the corner with the least balls, finishing with the most amount, or I should start with the most amount of balls and finish with the least.
13:06I don't know if...
13:07What are you going to do?
13:08I'm going to start with the most amount, working round to the very last ball on its own.
13:16That little blighter there.
13:17Don't forget it.
13:20Get yourself into position.
13:22You have seven lives.
13:24All you need to do, pick up the balls, put them in the container, in 15 seconds, and you have £10,000.
13:33If you're ready, Cube, start the game.
13:39Go, go, go.
13:4110, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
13:54Yeah!
14:17Do you know what?
14:18You had less than a second spare.
14:21Less than a second.
14:23That's high pressure.
14:24So, you've watched that, as we said, as we've been joking.
14:27You've seen that loads of times.
14:28When you actually get to play it, how does it feel?
14:30Do you know what?
14:32I consider myself a bit of a fitness freak.
14:35But I feel as though I'm about to drop dead.
14:37That took a lot out of me.
14:38I was panicking so much because I dropped one.
14:41I don't know if I dropped one.
14:42Oh, yes.
14:43And the balls, I thought they were going to be like the silver ball.
14:46They're heavier.
14:47And just even the fact that the texture of the balls changed,
14:50it throws your mind a bit.
14:51But do you know what's going to make you feel slightly better?
14:55Deal me.
14:56£10,000.
15:00£10,000 is yours for the moment.
15:05Game four is for £20,000.
15:08You said this could start to change your life.
15:11Let's see what challenge the cube has for you this time.
15:19Structure.
15:20Using 15 blocks, you must replicate the shape that appears on the floor.
15:27You have just 15 seconds.
15:29The floor will flash red to indicate the start of the time.
15:33And will finish when the last block is placed.
15:36So Paul, can you be fast and steady under pressure?
15:41There it is.
15:42Just building blocks.
15:43What do you think?
15:44I do building blocks with my daughter quite a lot.
15:45And we do silly games.
15:46We can build the highest tower.
15:47Ever for £20,000?
15:48Never mind.
15:49Surprisingly.
15:50Let me give you some statistics for this one.
15:51On average it takes 3.4 lives.
15:52And men are better at this than women, statistically.
15:55Julianne.
15:56What do you think?
15:57I think she'd go for it.
15:58Yeah?
15:59Just straight in.
16:00But don't rush it.
16:02I know you've got 15 seconds, but try not to rush because you have to do a little bit.
16:04Do the thing that I'm not really
16:21because you might knock over you've got your your two mates there who have been winning you on
16:30they're not builders yeah they're two it guys so i don't know if they're right people would be asking
16:35what would you say you should do straight in yeah straight in yeah playing duncan what do you think
16:39duncan you've got enough life life mate i would i would go straight in right you've got to try a run
16:44yeah no i don't want to try a run i don't think it's going to make any difference because it's
16:48i don't think it's about technique per se i think it's more about nerves and speed what would the
16:55twenty thousand pounds mean to you two we could probably move house which we've been trying to
17:02do for a while um i could probably take my daughter who's four year old and obsessed with phantom the
17:07opera to london to see it because i promised her that her daddy will take her if i come back with
17:11money um does she know you're here tonight yeah she knows i'm here yeah i've got a wee flower that
17:16she gave me the other day in my pockets all dried up and withered but i took her hill climbing and
17:19she gave me it so good luck charm okay the advice over here has been go for it you are the one that
17:28makes the decision what are you going to do paul take the advice yep go for it straight in
17:32definitely yeah good luck paul enter the cube
17:34what are you thinking um it just looks at a lot of blocks in 15 seconds that i have to organize
17:53i have to say out of all the games this is this one i'm think i'm a little bit worried about
17:58the cube the cube will start the game when you tell us you are ready
18:04i'm ready cube start the game
18:1110 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
18:31six slides remaining very very close one and a half or two seconds would have done it for that
18:43final block i just should have been a wee bit quicker i thought i was a bit cautious over
18:49cautious about knocking them over and they stayed a bit the structure stayed stronger than i thought it
18:53would so is now the time to take your simplify or do you think you can do it on the next go
19:01go next go come on you can do it go for it michelle what about you i agree you can do that paul
19:09i think you can do it mate go for it yeah what do you think i'm going to risk one more life i think
19:14it's worth it i think if i get this for 20 000 pounds and keep my life for the rest of the games i
19:19think i have to give it another go so close you tell us when you're ready and the cube will start
19:25the game you have six lives this is for 20 000 pounds
19:30ready cube start the game
19:4110 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
20:01right well you were nanoseconds away from getting it right and two of them were on the floor
20:14so what are you gonna do and we'll find out what that decision is after the break
20:21now it's your chance to take some money from the cube paul is about to take his third attempt at
20:30structure on average 58 percent of people succeed at this game within their first three attempts
20:36so for your chance to win 5 858 pounds watch closely a number of red squares will flash up on the floor
20:45of the cube you will then be distracted you must remember the location of the last red square
20:59was it a b or c so call 09012 931333 calls cost one pound from bt landlines calls from other networks
21:09may be higher and from mobiles will be considerably more text your answer a b or c to double a double
21:15three zero text costs one pound plus one standard network rate message you can also enter for free
21:20at itb.com entrance must be 18 or over and lines close on sunday at 5 p.m so the best of luck
21:26entries made after the closing time won't be counted but they still be charged
21:29before the break all you had to do was build a structure within 15 seconds so far you've lost
21:45two lives on this game but you still have five more remaining so for 20 000 pounds paul is it time to use
21:54your simplified what are you going to do now
22:05one more one more one more goal without so and being clumsy he said that last time
22:14your choice what are you going to do
22:16one more one more we are all with you there's not a single person in this room doesn't want you to
22:32nail this 20 000 pounds for you and your family and your little girls it's just building blocks
22:4020 000 pounds you tell us when you're ready the cube will start the game
22:53i'm ready cube start the game
22:5410 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
23:24you have one second left and there is 20 000 pounds
23:37five lives a simplify and a trial run your next game is worth 50 000 pounds let's see what's inside the cube
23:54contact you must guide the disc along the bar from one end to the other without the two making
24:00contact the game starts when the disc leaves the red safe zone or when you're under stress your body
24:09releases adrenaline which makes any attempt to keep a steady hand extremely difficult
24:16well there you are it's um it's a fairground game of course have you played that um i can't remember
24:22where i've played this but it was the old yeah the wire the wiggly wire game so yeah i've had to go
24:27at it this one of course is for 50 grand it's you know i can't exaggerate i feel privileged to be
24:34here playing these games never mind playing these games for money it's it's just something i've never
24:40experienced in my life you need a steady hand for this one so let's have a look at your hands how
24:45steady are your hands that's not bad that's reasonably steady let me tell you the city six for this one
24:52on average it takes 3.9 lives also shorter people tend to be better at this than taller people so i
24:59don't know how you would you see yourself as a tall man or do you see yourself as a shorter guy
25:03eh i wouldn't like to call myself joe average but i think i fit that that that that height statistic
25:09um well there's nothing average about the way you're performing in the cube tonight
25:14but this is for 50 grand yeah what would you do julianne with 50 000 pounds
25:19oh so much definitely a new house and holly just would love to go to the phantom of the opera
25:29and so a new house and a night out at the theater
25:34so with five lives a trial run and a simplify it's your choice now what are you going to do
25:40i'm going to go straight for it okay you've made your mind up keep a steady hand paul because the
25:51next time i see you it'll either be with 50 grand or with nothing enter the cube
25:57so how are you feeling now you're in there the pole seems to go on forever it's like one of these
26:14optical illusions it's shooting off for miles
26:17i need to um i've thought about my technique
26:25what is your technique well i don't have one per se but but i was thinking about kind of using my arms
26:35and against my body to try and but every step i take my feet is going to make me sway i think
26:40so it's going to kind of come through my body so i think i'm going to like and as a suspension technique
26:45like to i'm just going to relax my arms keep bent knees so that i can move up and down so i'm not
26:50in an extreme position and get to that red bit you've got to put it in the red zone
26:58and if you do that then the cube will give you 50 000 pounds you start when you think you're ready
27:09for 50 000 pounds paul just get that ring down that pole
27:27okay i'm ready go for it
27:52oh
28:04oh
28:06oh
29:19Let me show you.
29:20You have £50,000.
29:22The next game, Paul, is for £100,000.
29:36You have five lives, and your trial run, and your simplifying.
29:43Here's what the cube's got for you this time.
29:46A sequence of seven red squares will light up on the floor of the cube.
29:59Once the sequence is finished, you must step on each of the squares in the order that they appear.
30:06You'll only see the sequence once and be worn full.
30:10Your short-term memory will fade by the second.
30:15You have five lives left.
30:17You have your simplify.
30:19You have your trial run.
30:20You're in fantastic shape.
30:22What are you going to do?
30:24Just hold the thought, because we'll be back after the break.
30:27Here's another chance to take some money from the cube.
30:36To win £5,858, watch closely.
30:41A number of red squares will flash up on the floor of the cube.
30:46You will then be distracted.
30:48You must remember the location of the last red square.
31:00Was it A, B, or C?
31:05So, call 09012 931333.
31:09Calls cost £1 from BT landlines.
31:11Calls from other networks may be higher, and from mobiles will be considerably more.
31:14Text your answer A, B, or C to 88830.
31:17Text costs £1 plus one standard network rate message.
31:20You can also enter for free at ITV.com.
31:23Entrance must be 18 or over, and lines close on Sunday at 5pm, so the best of luck.
31:28Entries made after the closing time won't be counted, but may still be charged.
31:31The cube.
31:40Paul, seven of the squares will illuminate in a sequence.
31:44You must memorize it, then step on each of the squares in the order that they appear.
31:49You will only see this sequence once.
31:51You have five lives, your trial run, and your simplify remaining.
31:55So, Paul, are you prepared to gamble everything you've won so far?
31:59For £100,000.
32:02So, how good is your memory for £100,000?
32:08I think my memory is pretty good, but under these circumstances, and the pressure of the lights of the audience, I don't know.
32:17Now the stats for this, on average it takes 4.2 lives.
32:25You've got five, and a simplify, and a trial run.
32:30So it's doable from that point of view.
32:34But only if you think your memory can stand up to the challenge.
32:39Now, you've seen physically, we know that, we know you can do that.
32:42But how good is your memory?
32:44I'm panicking more because of the volume of money that's at stake rather than the game.
32:49What's a mobile number you have to memorize?
32:51What's it, ten digits or something?
32:53This is seven, and it's squares.
32:55I feel scared.
33:00Yeah.
33:01You've got a trial run?
33:03I think.
33:04If you take your trial run, then it won't be the same sequence that you'll get.
33:09Yeah.
33:10But at least it'll give you an idea of whether or not you were even close to remembering the seven squares.
33:16Yeah.
33:17Um, okay, listen guys, this is an awful lot of money now.
33:21We said that at ten, we said it at twenty, we said it at fifty, now we're at a hundred.
33:26What is he to do?
33:28Definitely a trial run.
33:30Do the trial, do the trial first, I think.
33:32Yeah, yeah.
33:33Can we all do that?
33:34Can we do the trial, do you think?
33:35I may as well use it, yeah, I've got to use it.
33:37Yeah, definitely.
33:39Okay, it's a trial run.
33:42And then you've got a big decision to make.
33:45What will you do if you get this right?
33:48Enter the queue.
34:00Okay, Paul, you've got to remember the sequence.
34:02This is your trial run, so it won't be the same as the one you will get if you decide to play.
34:09Got you.
34:14I'm ready.
34:15Cube, start the game.
34:17As soon as you're ready, go.
34:30As soon as you're ready, go.
34:57Okay.
34:58So that was the wrong square.
35:01To start with.
35:03That was, as a trial run goes, a catastrophe.
35:08You've learnt nothing from it, other than the fact that it is pretty damn difficult.
35:15But it's going to be for 100,000.
35:19You have five lives and a simplify.
35:23Yeah.
35:23I don't know what happened there, right?
35:30But I have to say, it felt simpler than it actually was.
35:34I've just lost my train of thought.
35:35I think with five lives, I really do think with five lives, and the possibility of simplifying,
35:43I can do it.
35:44I definitely, I'm confident I can do it.
35:46I'll take the money, babe.
35:4850,000 is, I would easily walk away with that money.
35:53However, I've got five lives.
35:55Five lives and a simplify for 100,000, which is quite a lot.
35:58Look, I know how competitive you are, and you said last night you wanted to come here and
36:02beat the cube.
36:04If you're confident in doing it, you need to be 100% confident in doing it.
36:08You have got a lot of life left, and you've got to simplify, but in your head, you need
36:12to be confident.
36:13I'm confident.
36:20What would your daughter say?
36:23Daddy, take me to Phantom the Opera.
36:30I think you're in the worst possible dilemma.
36:33It would almost be easy for you to make the decision if you got in there with just one
36:36or two lives, but you do have those five lives.
36:40And I do want you to think not only the euphoria you would have if you won 100,000 pounds, but
36:48what you would feel like this evening if you left with nothing.
36:52And that's the way it is.
36:54That's what the cube does to your mind.
36:55You know, you say, you've studied it, you've watched it.
36:57You've watched every other program that we did.
37:00So, now you have to choose, Paul.
37:01What are you going to do?
37:05I'm going to simplify and continue.
37:10Okay, you have made the decision.
37:17So, we're going to simplify the game before we even start.
37:20You are committed now, so you'll either stand beside me here with 100,000 pounds, or you'll
37:27leave here with nothing.
37:28Cube, simplify the game.
37:30A random red square will be removed from the sequence.
37:33So, it is easier because it is a sequence of six and not seven.
37:42Yeah.
37:44I thought, I was really confident that was going to be the case.
37:47I was hoping they would reduce it to one, but...
37:49Well, here we are.
37:59You have everyone beside you here.
38:01We all want you to do it.
38:04Every single person in here wants you to walk away with 100,000 pounds.
38:08I want you to walk away with 100,000 pounds.
38:10The cube doesn't.
38:11So, can you beat the cube?
38:16To the tune of 100,000 pounds, if you're ready, Paul, you say, and we'll start the sequence.
38:23Please don't forget it.
38:27Good luck, Paul.
38:34Ready?
38:37Cube.
38:39Play the game.
38:41Go.
38:57Go.
39:09Go.
39:10Go.
39:11Oh, my God.
39:41You did it in one.
39:59You did it in one.
40:00Wait, wait, wait.
40:01Hang on, hang on.
40:02Look, look, look, look, look, look, look.
40:03It's £100,000.
40:11I've never heard a human being make noises like you made in there.
40:20And when you got to that last one, you knew, didn't you?
40:23You knew that you'd done it.
40:24I knew it, the third one.
40:25I just had a shape.
40:27It was just a shape.
40:30How do you feel?
40:31What's that done for, you know?
40:42Do you feel good?
40:44I can't do it.
40:46It's like a talk show moment.
40:48I just can't wait to see my daughter's face.
40:51What about Julianne over here?
40:56You said don't do it.
40:59Oh, we're going to get married.
41:01So, now then, here we are with £100,000.
41:20The next game is worth a quarter of a million pounds.
41:24It's the jackpot, £250,000, a quarter of a million pounds.
41:33And the cube will show you a game you've already played,
41:37but at a much harder level.
41:41Let's see what the cube has for you for your £250,000 game.
41:47APPLAUSE
41:49It's one of your weakest games.
42:00For a quarter of a million pounds,
42:02you must build the structure again.
42:05Not in the 15 seconds you had last time,
42:07but now in just 12.
42:10So, you're one game away from beating the cube.
42:13The question is, have you got the nerve, boy?
42:19So, there it is.
42:21You've done it, but you did it in just under 15.
42:24Now you've got to do it in 12.
42:26I've got five lives, and I reckon that, you know...
42:29Well, I've done it within one second.
42:35That was 15 seconds.
42:37So, let's just look back at what you did before.
42:41You accomplished that in just under 15 seconds.
42:45So, you have to shave off time down to 12 seconds down.
42:51And five attempts.
42:56It's for £250,000.
42:59You may be superhuman,
43:01but you will be pumping with adrenaline,
43:04because that's a quarter of a million pounds or nothing.
43:09Babe, we have £100,000.
43:22Duncan, what would you do?
43:23Every game, I've been confident that you could do it.
43:26This game, I've got my doubts.
43:29Tommy.
43:30It's a lot of time we cut off.
43:31It's an extra three seconds.
43:33I just don't...
43:34I don't see you as confident this time.
43:36I think I would probably just take the money.
43:38Right, OK.
43:39I am really...
43:40I know people seem to be doubting me,
43:43but I'm confident I could do it.
43:44If you say it...
43:45Let me just say it now.
43:47If you say it...
43:48Yeah.
43:48If you say the words leave your mouth now,
43:51I'm going for it,
43:51and you're committed.
43:52Yep, yep.
43:53I came here
43:58thinking
44:00and still thinking
44:02it is my destiny to beat the cube.
44:06I have five lives.
44:09I'm super confident.
44:15But I'm going to take the money.
44:16Oh, no.
44:23Well done to your lovely friends.
44:37Thank you, Julianne, over there.
44:40Well done.
44:41You didn't beat the cube,
44:43but you came so close.
44:44You have taken £100,000 out of it.
44:48Paul, thank you very much indeed.
44:50A round of applause.
44:53We'll have more people ready
45:01to take on the cube next time.
45:04The question is,
45:05could you beat the cube?
45:11Next time on the cube.
45:16Just stay calm.
45:20I'm not like this one either.
45:23It's between you and the cube now.
45:27I can do it.
45:28I've got to.
