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 played inside The Cube, everything changes.
00:24Have you got what it takes to beat The Cube?
00:30The Cube!
00:50This is The Cube!
00:52Seven simple games stand between you and a quarter of a million pounds.
00:57Unfortunately, nothing is simple inside The Cube.
01:01Let's meet our first contestant, Emma Soule!
01:08Welcome! Emma Soule!
01:11Hello!
01:12How are you feeling?
01:13Okay.
01:14Good, good. So, what do you do for a living?
01:16I'm an electrician.
01:17You've got your own company.
01:18I have.
01:19And how old are you?
01:20I am 28th.
01:21Would you introduce us to who's here with you this evening?
01:24That's Damien, my brother, and that's one of my best friends, Kirsty.
01:27How do you think you're going to do? What do you think you're going to use tonight to beat The Cube?
01:33Just as I keep myself calm and just as I do at work in situations, just weigh it all up and have a look, think it through.
01:41Okay. Game one is worth a thousand pounds. Let's see what The Cube has chosen for your first challenge.
01:47Time freeze. This is The Body. An expert in all games played within The Cube.
01:59Emma, you must estimate the duration of 10 seconds. Press the button to start the clock.
02:06Push again when you think 10 seconds have elapsed. You must be within 9.5 and 10.5 seconds to succeed.
02:17So it's just guessing 10 seconds. Yep. How do you feel about that?
02:26I practiced this one at home. Did you? Fingers crossed. And how did you do?
02:30Not bad and I'm glad we gave the one second margin. I can tell you that The Cube will give you one chance to simplify.
02:36So if you're stuck, then The Cube will make a game easier for you. But you can only use that once. Step inside The Cube.
02:44There you go. You're now inside The Cube. How does that feel?
02:57Okay. Everyone's blocked out now, so...
03:00It's just you against The Cube. Stop the clock between 9.5 and 10.5, and then you'll come out here with a thousand pounds.
03:09Fingers crossed. Are you ready? I am. Okay.
03:12So, how have you done? How do you think you did? I don't know. Fingers crossed. Okay.
03:27Cube, show me the time. Look at that!
03:45Look at that!
03:59Three hundredths of a second.
04:02Wow! You must have practiced that a lot.
04:06Very good. You have...
04:08One thousand pounds!
04:12You've got nine lives. It's game two. It's worth two thousand pounds. What's inside The Cube?
04:21Tilt.
04:23By tilting the beam, you must roll the ball from its starting point into the hole at the opposite end.
04:29If the ball falls off, you will lose a life. You will need to keep the beam very steady to maintain control of the ball.
04:38Are you in control, Amber?
04:42How do you feel?
04:43Nervous.
04:44Why?
04:45Because it's just like such a thin ledge and just slightly each way, it's just going to topple off the edge.
04:52From now on, The Cube will let you have one trial run.
04:56Now, this means that you can try the game before you decide whether or not you're going to take it on.
05:01There's no pressure. You won't lose a life if you fail, but of course, if you get it, then it doesn't mean anything at all.
05:06You've got to do it again.
05:07Yep.
05:08Okay? Yep.
05:09What are you going to do?
05:10I'm just going to do it.
05:11Let's try the cube.
05:12How does it look now? You're standing by the side of it.
05:25Scary!
05:26Yes.
05:27It does look very, very long, doesn't it?
05:29So long.
05:30Yeah.
05:31Well, there is no time limit. Take your time. Relax. Don't let the cube in your mind just yet.
05:39Okay? Ready when you are.
06:09You are in terrific shape. Nine lives remaining and £2,000.
06:40It gets a bit serious now. Game three is worth £10,000. Let's see what's inside the cube.
06:51Blind shot. You must throw the red cube over the wall so it lands directly in the target container.
06:59You can look around the wall to gauge the distance, but when you throw the cube, you must be behind it.
07:09So, that's our £10,000 game for you. That's what the cube's come up with this time.
07:20You've got a daughter, haven't you? Is it Natasha? I have, yeah.
07:22That's six? She'll be seven in a couple of months.
07:25Right, so you're a single mum. I am.
07:27And you must have done a bit of, you know, throwing in the garden, checking stuff around.
07:32Yeah, but we've never had an obstacle in the way that we couldn't see.
07:34What would £10,000 mean to you, Natasha?
07:40Quite a lot of us have the couple of dream holidays that we want to do, so they'd definitely be getting booked.
07:47We couldn't be in any better shape here. You have all nine lives, you've got your Simplify and you've got your trial run.
07:53So, what are you going to do now?
07:56It's going to do it.
07:58Straight in.
08:04Into the cube.
08:15You can step outside of the zone now and have a look around.
08:18Judge your distances, decide where you're going to go, how you're going to throw it, what you're going to do.
08:22£10,000 riding on this would be great if you did this in one.
08:28To go into game four with all nine lives would be unbelievable.
08:32Oh, great.
08:33OK.
08:35Get the weight of that cube. How does that feel when you've picked it up for the first time?
08:39A lot lighter.
08:41I'm just hoping it doesn't bounce out.
08:43I'll be gutted.
08:46It has to stay inside the container.
08:49Good luck, Emma.
09:05You're down a life.
09:06Wander around and see where it went.
09:10It's just in France.
09:11Yeah.
09:14So just that little bit harder.
09:19Oh, no.
09:25Seven lives remaining.
09:27And you may have rushed that one a little bit, do you think?
09:30Yeah.
09:31Yeah?
09:32OK, you go when you want to go.
09:34Six lives remaining.
09:46You're almost there.
09:47I don't like this one.
09:48Just stay calm.
09:49I'm going for an overhead shot.
09:50Yeah.
09:51Knuckle.
09:52Five lives remaining.
09:53Five lives remaining.
09:54Five lives remaining.
09:55That was too far.
09:56That was too far.
09:57I don't know.
09:58I don't like this one.
09:59Just stay calm.
10:00I'm going for an overhead shot.
10:01Yeah.
10:02I'm going for an overhead shot.
10:03Yeah.
10:04Knuckle.
10:20Five lives remaining.
10:22That was too far.
10:23Would you be thinking about a simplify?
10:24Making it easier?
10:25Not just yet.
10:26OK.
10:27Made it easier.
10:28Had it done.
10:29Fair?
10:30Had it done.
10:31Way to both.
10:32Grab it your hands.
10:34It's been fun.
10:35Yeah.
10:36Wooo!
10:37Nice job.
10:38Yeah.
10:40Yeah.
10:41Yeah.
10:44Good choice, well done, how it's done, you have to wait for a minute there, me too, I'm just going to lose them all, I'm not fine, look at this, £10,000
11:07But it doesn't stop there because you have five lights, it's game four, it's for £20,000, this is what's inside the cube
11:18Quantity
11:23Quantity
11:23Quantity
11:23Quantity
11:24Quantity
11:25Quantity
11:26Quantity
11:27Quantity
11:28Quantity
11:29Quantity
11:30Quantity
11:31Quantity
11:32Quantity
11:33Quantity
11:34Quantity
11:35Quantity
11:37Quantity
11:38Quite
11:39Quantity
11:40Quantity
11:41Quantity
11:43So there we are, there's your next game, you have a choice to make, what are you going to do?
11:49Tell me after the break.
11:49the break you have 12 seconds to count the squares you still have five lives
12:06your simplify and your trial run remaining counting squares for 20,000
12:12pounds what could be simpler ever
12:19what do you think I don't know I don't like this one either well I've got a statistic for you on
12:27this one most people get this on their fourth attempt you've got five lives mm-hmm so that is
12:36a bit of pressure what sort of a girl is Natasha your daughter he's an absolute angel you just
12:43couldn't ask for a better daughter she's just so well behaved so polite and and what does she like
12:49to do what sort of a girly girl she is she's a very girly girl and there's anything pink and
12:54fluffy you said for 10,000 pounds you would like to take her for a couple of lovely holidays for
12:5920,000 pounds what would you do and nothing the holidays would still be in order and she's and
13:06desperate for a horse so I'd hopefully try and look into something along those lines of getting her a
13:12horse riding lessons yeah so at the moment everything you're thinking about is for her
13:16what about you that'd make me happy so you know happy then and I enjoy the holidays too so good enough
13:22okay you do have your simplify you do have your trial run or you could just go straight in there
13:27and get the job done I think I'm gonna go in have a go and see how it goes and if I sort of fail on the
13:36first go I'm probably going to go for the simplifier good luck it's for 20,000 pounds enter the cube
13:41so you didn't take your trial run which means that you are committed to playing the game you can
13:56take your simplify should you need it but the next time you leave the cube will either be with 20,000
14:02pounds or it will be with nothing five lives five attempts to get this right you ready yep okay cue start
14:14the game and they've gone got a number in your head how do you feel confident give or take one
14:39long that's not gonna be good enough in there you've got five attempts though do you think you
14:46counted them all what's your number 37 you're saying 37 did you get it right first time have you lost a
14:58life 37 is your number Q is that right or wrong
15:28game five is worth 50,000 pounds you have five lives you have your simplify you have your trial run let's
15:45see what's inside the queue you must bounce the ball into the cylinder it can only bounce once before it
15:58reaches the target but you could stand anywhere in the cube one bounce it in for 50,000 pounds
16:05sounds simple doesn't it ever up and down the country people have been playing this they've been
16:11bouncing balls into their bins into buckets into stuff left right and center now you're going to do
16:17it maybe for 50,000 pounds what would 50,000 pounds mean to you so much as one of my dreams to sort of build my
16:26own house and that's us moving mansion but something that I've built personally and tasha could have her own
16:32input into it and and over here your brother 50 grand she's on the brink of 50,000 pounds if you were here what would
16:40you do wrong what do you think she should do go and try it first and then simplify if you don't do it
16:48the first time okay do you think she can do it yes hmm there we are now that's positive right what are
16:55you going to do i'm going to go and have a go
17:02extraordinary
17:04you're going straight in yeah well let's see what you think once you're inside the cube
17:10how does it feel now you're in there it looks so simple but it's just one of those that could
17:28just go terribly wrong you've walked straight in you've decided not to take a trial run and you
17:33have the option of your simplify but that does mean that you are committed to playing this game now
17:38you want to pick the ball up so all you have to do is to bounce that ball into the bucket for 50,000
17:49pounds good luck ever thank you in your own time
18:08four lives remaining pause and take a breath now you've done that now you can start from the same
18:17place if you want to start from the same place you've got four lives you've got you simplify still so
18:23no no panic okay you go when you want to go
18:27three lives remaining
18:39i want to take the simplifier
18:45yeah that's a decision
18:47yeah okay cube please simplify the game the height of the cylinder has been reduced
18:54it's gotten shorter which does make it easier
19:00now you're a sort of a bull in a china shop girl aren't you
19:05i mean you've been charging through these you really have now you stand
19:10with three lives between you and either 50,000 pounds or nothing
19:17just take a pause just take a thought look at that don't rush it there is no time limit here
19:27and the cube would have you rush this game
19:30it spots your weaknesses
19:33you know what it is it magnifies them it's between you and the cube now you have
19:40three more attempts
19:45two lives remaining
19:56you've got two lives left don't rush it
20:07okay so for another chance at that 50,000 pounds bounce that ball into that bucket
20:21okay so for another chance at that 50,000 pounds
20:28okay so for another chance at that 50,000 pounds
20:30one lives remaining
20:33help
20:34just stay calm
20:36the ball's got a mind of its own
20:38just take your time don't rush it
20:40okay
20:41deep breath
20:43now this is just bouncing a ball
20:48ball but that ball is now a 50 grand ball that ball that you have there is worth 50,000 pounds
20:57no pressure no pressure no pressure no pressure okay so this is for 50,000 pounds or nothing

22:07This is now what's inside the queue.
22:17Focus.
22:19You will be shown the location of several red squares on the floor of the queue.
22:24You will then be distracted.
22:26When the floor goes blank, you must place the marker on the exact location of the last red square that was shown to you.
22:33You will need to remain focused under extreme pressure.
22:43Well, there's your game.
22:44You've got to decide how you're going to play it, and you can tell me how you're going to do that right after the break.
22:48Don't go away.
22:48Now it's your chance to take some money from the queue.
22:57You've just seen Emma win £50,000 on cylinder.
23:01The height of the cylinder she bounced the ball into was 85 centimetres.
23:06To win £8,585, watch these squares closely.
23:11When they reappear, tell us which square is missing.
23:19Was it A, B, or C?
23:23So, call 09012 931333.

23:36Text costs £1 plus one standard network rate message.
23:39You can also enter for free at itv.com.
23:42Entrance must be 18 or over, and lines close on Sunday at 5pm, so the best of luck.
23:47Entries made after the closing time won't be counted, but may still be charged.
23:58Emma, all you need to do is remember the location of the last red square.
24:04You have your trial run and one life remaining.
24:08If you place the marker in the correct position, you will win £100,000.
24:15So, what do you think?
24:17Oh, I don't know.
24:18I don't know, I don't like this one either.
24:20You haven't liked any of them.
24:21I don't.
24:22And you're standing here with £50,000.
24:25So, something's going right.
24:28Someone's looking down at me.
24:29You have a choice to make.
24:32You've got £50,000.
24:33We know what that would mean to you and Natasha.
24:35What would £100,000 mean?
24:37Oh, God, I could just build an even bigger house for us both,
24:40and the stables in the garden, and the dirt shack around the garden,
24:43and everyone would just come round for a massive barbecue,
24:45and all race at quads.
24:46Horses coming through.
24:47I wouldn't have to go on holiday now.
24:49We'd just have our big house and land.
24:52Let's have a word with your brother.
24:55Damien, what do you think?
24:57£50,000 is more money than you've ever had for both of you.
25:01Do the trial run, and then decide.
25:04What are you going to do?
25:05I'm going to do the trial run, see how it goes,
25:09and then make the decision.
25:12Enter the key.
25:13So, you ready?
25:29Yeah.
25:29Pick up your square.
25:31OK.
25:35This is your trial run.
25:37Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
25:38You don't gain anything other than knowledge.
25:41You don't lose anything, that's for sure.
25:43Keep your eye on the last square.
25:47You ready?
25:48Yeah.
25:48OK, Cube, let's play the game.
25:50Thanks to the square.
26:08What's that look?
26:19Is that a look of confidence?
26:21It's thereabouts, but...
26:23OK, we'll take a pixel or two.
26:27OK, Cube, is she right or wrong?
26:30Now, if you had played that, it would have been game over.
26:45You have your one life remaining.
26:49If you think you can do it,
26:52then you'll walk out with £100,000, if you get it right.
26:58Very close.
27:00What are you going to do?
27:03I'm going to walk away.
27:04I'm going to walk away.
27:14We love having you here.
27:15I'd love to be able to say that you will take away £50,000.
27:23That's £50,000 for you and Patricia.
27:26Well, I'll have to say that you have been absolutely wonderful.
27:32Thank you so much.
27:33A round of applause for Alex.
27:41Let's meet our next contestant.
27:43Alex Nosh.
27:47How are you, mate?
27:49Good to see you.
27:50Excited.
27:51Very nice.
27:51Nice to meet you.
27:52OK, Alex, how old are you?
27:53I'm 27.
27:53Who have you brought with you?
27:55I've brought with me three people.
27:56I've brought my girlfriend, Danielle.
27:57Yeah?
27:58Hi, Danielle.
27:58My mum, Elaine.
27:59Hiya.
27:59And my dad, Terry.
28:01Are you all feeling OK?
28:03How are you feeling?
28:05More excited than nervous.
28:07I thought I'd be quaking right now.
28:08I think that's going to hit me when I get in the Cube.
28:10What do you think you've got that's going to beat the Cube?
28:13I'm hoping, and I don't want to make a rob for my own back here, but I'm hoping that when
28:16it gets up there and it gets exciting, I've got the confidence to go on and go for it.
28:21What do you do for a living?
28:22Me and my girlfriend, we run a pub in Charlie, Lancashire.
28:24Oh, do you?
28:25Yeah.
28:25So, you have nine lives.
28:28All you've got to do is to beat the Cube.
28:31And then £250,000 will be yours.
28:35Sounds good.
28:35Sound good?
28:36Sounds very good.
28:37Are you ready?
28:37I'm ready.
28:37Game one is worth £1,000.
28:40Let's see what's inside the Cube.
28:47Pulse.
28:49Alex, when you press the button, the floor of the Cube will gradually turn red, starting
28:54at your feet and spreading outwards.
28:57When the pulse reaches the edge of the Cube, you must stop it dead by pressing the button
29:02again.
29:03This game is one of judgment and accurate timing.
29:07Split second timing.
29:15You good at that?
29:16We'll find out, won't we?
29:17So, there's one thing that the Cube will give you, and that is the chance to simplify
29:21the game.
29:22Okay.
29:22So, if you're stuck, the Cube will make it easier for you, but you can only use it once.
29:27Once only.
29:28Okay.
29:28So, it's game one.
29:29Yep.
29:30It's for £1,000.
29:31The next time I see you, you will either be out here with £1,000, or you're on your way
29:35home, very early on.
29:37If you're ready, Alex.
29:39Yep, I'm ready.
29:40Enter the Cube.
29:40Does it feel strange?
29:57Very strange.
29:58The game will start when you're ready, and you start it.
30:02Good luck, Alex.
30:04It's for £1,000.
30:04It's for £1,000.
30:34You have just got £1,000.
30:37Good start.
30:39So, are you ready for your second game?
30:42Yeah, let's bring it on.
30:43Game two is worth £2,000.
30:46Let's see what's inside the Cube.
30:51Barrier.
30:53Alex, whilst blindfolded, you must walk towards the barrier and step over it without dislodging
30:59it.
31:00The game is completed when both feet have cleared the barrier.
31:03This is a game of spatial awareness.
31:07However, under pressure and in darkness, your judgement will be severely distorted.
31:13So here it is, barrier.
31:16What are your thoughts?
31:17Looks tough.
31:18Looks very hard.
31:19Well, you're in good shape, Alex.
31:21Alex, let's see what you do after the break.
31:26Here's another chance to take some money from the Cube.
31:30To win £8,585, watch these squares closely.
31:35When they reappear, tell us which square is missing.
31:40Was it A, B, or C?
31:50So, call 09012 931333.
31:54Calls cost £1 from BT landlines.
31:56Calls from other networks may be higher and from mobiles will be considerably more.
31:59Text your answer A, B, or C to 88830.
32:03Text costs £1 plus one standard network rate message.
32:05You can also enter for free at itv.com.
32:09Entrance must be 18 or over, and lines close on Sunday at 5pm, so the best of luck.
32:13Entries made after the closing time won't be counted, but may still be charged.
32:19The Cube!
32:25Alex, whilst blindfolded, you must walk towards the barrier and step over it without dislodging it.
32:31The game is completed when both feet have cleared the barrier.
32:36With your trial run, simplify, and all nine lives remaining.
32:40How hard can it be, Alex?
32:43Well, the audience went, oh, no.
32:45Yeah, so did I.
32:46Did you?
32:46Yeah.
32:47Why?
32:48It's just, one of the things that you kind of can practise a little bit at home is just
32:52moving around with a tea towel around your head, and it's tough.
32:56Have you witnessed this at home?
32:58Yeah, she's been helping me.
32:59Really?
32:59She's been the official tea towel tie.
33:04Well, I'll give you a few statistics for this, Alex.
33:0761% do it on the first attempt.
33:10Right.
33:10But, one in ten can't do it at all.
33:14Right.
33:15Let's hope I'm on a 61% then.
33:17Yeah.
33:18I can tell you that from now on, the Cube lets you have a trial run.
33:22Okay.
33:23So, looking at it now, it's not a tea towel.
33:26You're going to have the proper mask.
33:27Yeah.
33:28What are you going to do?
33:28I'm going to go for it.
33:29Yeah?
33:30Yeah, definitely.
33:30Okay, Alex.
33:31Well, this is game two.
33:34It is for £2,000.
33:36Next time I see you, you'll either be here with two grand or nothing.
33:40Step inside the queue.
33:41Thanks.
33:53All you have to do, Alex, is step over that barrier whilst blindfolded.
33:59Make sure you don't knock it off.
34:01Otherwise, you will lose your life.
34:03Sounds easy.
34:04Happy?
34:06Wouldn't say happy, but I'm ready.
34:08Pick up the mask.
34:10Pop it on your head.
34:11And snap it down.
34:18In your own time, Alex.
34:20Off you go.
34:21As soon as you step over the red line, you're in play.
34:24Good luck.
34:24Eight lives remaining.
34:53It was close.
34:55You were doing a bit of a dance by the side of it, though.
34:58It took you a while.
34:59Once you got there.
35:00If I was ready or not.
35:01He who hesitates, you were hesitating.
35:03Yeah, I thought I was a little bit further away.
35:05So, second attempt at this.
35:08You've lost the life.
35:10Yeah.
35:10It's for £2,000.
35:11That's right.
35:11You know what you did wrong.
35:13Don't do a little dance just before you get to it.
35:16If you're ready.
35:17Ready.
35:17Snap the mask down.
35:18And away you go.
35:18You know what you did wrong.
35:48How'd you come?
35:55Good stuff.
35:56You've got £2,000.
35:58£2,000.
36:00The next game is worth £10,000.
36:05Let's see what the cube's got for you this time.
36:07Descent.
36:13Alex, you must bounce the ball once on each of the two columns so that it descends into
36:18the target container.
36:20You will need to assess the force required to counteract the ball's loss of energy as it
36:25travels.
36:26Right then, what do you think?
36:30I think it looks difficult, but out of the games that I'd have gone far from the last
36:36series, this is probably one of them.
36:38Oh, so happy you've got this one.
36:39Yeah, well, I wouldn't say happy.
36:40It looks more difficult standing in front of the cube than it did on the TV, but I'm confident,
36:45yeah.
36:46I've got a few statistics for you on this one.
36:48On average, it takes 3.1 lives.
36:50Okay.
36:51Which is good because you've got eight, and you've still got your Simplify, and you've
36:55got your trial run.
36:55Yeah.
36:56So you're in a great position.
36:57For now.
36:58For now.
36:59What would £10,000 mean to you?
37:01Oh, it's massive, isn't it?
37:03You can do a lot with £10,000.
37:06You know, we've got me and my girlfriend live in our new house.
37:09We got let down by some bad builders, and there's quite a bit unfinished.
37:13So it'd be great to take some money back and be able to finish that off for us both.
37:16If you went all the way tonight, you could scrap that house and go get another one.
37:20Yeah.
37:21Two.
37:22Two?
37:22Yeah, why not?
37:23Maybe.
37:23Where do you live?
37:25What are you going to do?
37:26I'm going to play.
37:27Yeah?
37:27Yeah, definitely.
37:28Straight in.
37:29Step inside the cube.
37:30Thank you very much.
37:40The ball has got to bounce once, and only once on each column.
37:47And then go into the target container at the end.
37:49In your own time, pick up one of those balls.
37:52Each of those balls represents one of your eight lives that you have left.
37:57We would love you to get this in one.
37:59You would be in such a great shape if you did that.
38:02You start when you're ready, Alex.
38:05Best of luck.
38:06That last one's cleverly placed.
38:08You just, the second one hides it.
38:10So you can't actually see the last one.
38:13The cube doesn't make it easy for anybody.
38:16Okay.
38:17Let's try it.
38:18Seven lives remaining.
38:28Going to do it any differently?
38:29Yeah.
38:30Going to get it in.
38:30What might I do?
38:31Yeah, a bit aggressive on that one.
38:34It's hard to tell how the balls are going to bounce, but I'll learn from it.
38:37Ten grand, you've got time to think.
38:50Six lives remaining.
38:52This is what happens.
38:54Yeah.
38:55Yeah.
38:55Everything's looking good, and suddenly it starts to crumble.
38:58So, you've got to get in between those two throws.
39:01Yeah.
39:03I can do that.
39:04Come on.
39:14Oh!
39:18Five lives remaining.
39:20Still have a simplify?
39:21I'm going to at least go one more.
39:23I don't, I don't see how a simplify could really help this.
39:28So.
39:28Before you throw it, what would, what would happen?
39:30Maybe a bigger bucket.
39:32A bigger bucket?
39:34Yeah.
39:36I was close that time, so I've got to go again.
39:38I've got to go again.
39:47Oh!
39:48It's on the edge.
39:49That couldn't be any closer.
39:51If it was closer, it would have gone in.
39:52Four lives remaining.
39:54I mean, that far?
39:56Have a chat with the family.
39:58Keep going.
39:59Have another go at it.
40:00It's almost.
40:01Almost.
40:02It's just a bit harder, isn't it?
40:04Right.
40:04It looks so much simpler when you're outside, doesn't it?
40:06Oh, massive.
40:07It looks...
40:08I remember watching this, and it looked...
40:09I thought I'd do that easily, so...
40:12You know, it's so much different when you're in here.
40:14It's a tough game.
40:15But...
40:16I've got to do it.
40:27Oh!
40:30Three lives remaining.
40:31You've missed it in every conceivable way.
40:36Like, I'm struggling to see the end.
40:37Was that the right...
40:38Was that to the right that time?
40:39It went over.
40:40It bounced on the other end, then.
40:42Three lives remaining.
40:43I can do it.
40:44I can do it.
40:44I've got to...
40:45I need to simplify.
40:47Now, what are you thinking over here?
40:49If they simplify, Alex, they might take one of the bouncers out.
40:53Nah, it's too easy.
40:54It's too easy.
40:56The audience is saying,
40:57that's too easy.
40:58That would be too easy.
40:59I don't know.
41:00I don't know.
41:01It's not a bigger bucket that have gone in.
41:03I'm going to have one more.
41:05The cube has already taken five lives off you, Alex.
41:09You went in there in great shape.
41:11Now, you're beginning to look like you might be in trouble.
41:14Yeah.
41:15I need this one to go in.
41:17You look like a caged animal in there, pacing up and down.
41:29I don't want to carry around regardless, but I think I can do it.
41:40Oh!
41:41Come on!
41:43Two lives remaining.
41:45I'm going to have to simplify, Alex.
41:46I'm going to have to...
41:47I don't...
41:47I didn't want to use it this early.
41:49You know what happens with the game.
41:51Either you'll step out with nothing or you'll step out with your £10,000.
41:54You've got two more shots at £10,000.
41:57I'm going to have to simplify.
41:59I think that's probably a very good idea.
42:01Do we agree with that?
42:01Yeah.
42:04Okay.
42:06You simplify the game.
42:09The width of the target container has been increased.
42:14So, you've got a bigger bucket.
42:16I've got myself a bigger bucket.
42:18What do you think?
42:19It's obviously, you know, three of those last ones would have gone in.
42:25And let's hope it works for me.
42:27Well, there's nowhere else to go now, unfortunately.
42:30I mean, you've used your simplify.
42:32It's for £10,000.
42:34You've got two lives left.
42:35Yeah.
42:36To go on to the next one, I mean, obviously, you've got to get it the first time.
42:40Yeah.
42:40Okay.
42:41Yeah, first one.
42:42It needs to be the first one.
42:43If not, you're in big trouble.
42:45And we will end up losing you without any money at all.
42:48And the cube will have beaten you.
42:49We don't want that.
42:50That's the last thing we want.
42:52So, Alex, there is the bigger bucket.
42:56You have two lives left for £10,000.
43:01When you're ready, just get that ball into the bucket.
43:10One live remaining.
43:28£10,000.
43:29£10,000.
43:29That's it.
43:32That's the £10,000.
43:33£10,000.
43:35All on that one ball.
43:40A little bit of support, I think, from the audience.
43:51Danielle, anything you want to say to him?
43:53Come on, baby.
43:54Good luck, baby, she says.
43:56Dad, what do you reckon, Terry?
43:58Don't leave the putt short, Alex.
44:02Here we go.
44:04All right, we're ready.
44:06No pressure, mate.
44:07No pressure.
44:08One ball, £10,000.
44:10Contestant defeated.
44:27I can't believe it.
44:44I cannot believe it.
44:46I have seldom seen a more gutted face leave the queue.
44:50You all right?
44:53Yeah, I'm fine.
44:53It's just I thought I'd have been able to do it.
44:55And to be so close so many times, you know, it's gutting, you know?
45:00Do you wish you'd have taken your Simplify a little bit earlier?
45:03No, not really.
45:04I don't regret not doing that because at the time I felt confident I'd do it.
45:08And you're still sure, but the Simplify is still at the rim, you know, so...
45:12Well, you've proved just how hard it is.
45:15Yeah.
45:16I really wish that we could have given you some money tonight.
45:18So did I feel.
45:19It's taken everything, mate.
45:21Unfortunately, you didn't beat the cube, but it's been lovely having you here.
45:23Thanks very much.
45:24Thank you very much.
45:24We'll have more people ready to take on the cube next time.
45:35The question is, could you beat the cube?
45:41Next time on the cube.
45:51It's very good to see you once you come in here.
45:53This is the game show made for me.
45:56It's between you and the cube now?
45:58Yeah, I'm going to go for it.
46:03Well, the cube iPhone game is available now for $1.79 as an app.
