00:00These four people have never met before, but by working as a team, they have the chance to win thousands of pounds.
00:06There's just one thing standing in their way.
00:09The chase-up.
00:10The chase is on.
00:20Well, hello and welcome to The Chase.
00:22Today's team of four total strangers believe they have what it takes to beat one of Britain's finest quiz brains and take home thousands of pounds.
00:28Let's meet the team.
00:30I'm Catherine. I'm 36. I'm a full-time mother, originally from New Zealand.
00:35I'm Ikenna. I'm 25. I'm a maths graduate and IT student from Glasgow.
00:41I'm Murray. I'm 33. I'm an education consultant from London.
00:45I'm John. I'm 50. A police officer from Croydon.
00:48There they are.
00:49Now, one by one, they'll try to bring as much money as they can down the board and into the team prize fund.
00:54But as always, hunting them down every step of the way is the chaser.
00:58Anyone who gets caught loses their money and, of course, out of the game.
01:02Make it back safely, though.
01:04They go through to the final chase with a chance to win an equal share of the total prize fund.
01:08And first to face the chaser, it's Catherine.
01:11Welcome, Catherine.
01:16Right. Now, you're a full-time mum from London.
01:19Yep. I'm from New Zealand originally. I've been here 10 years.
01:22Really? You got used to it yet?
01:23I love London, although I haven't got into football, so I'm hoping we won't have too many football questions today.
01:27We shall see.
01:28First hurdle to get over is the cash builder. I will ask you questions against the clock.
01:33Each correct answer gives you £1,000.
01:35OK?
01:35OK.
01:35I wish you luck.
01:37Your time starts now.
01:39What sci-fi film has TV spin-offs called SG-1, Atlantis and Universe?
01:43Pass.
01:44Stargate.
01:45According to legend, which saint rid island of snakes?
01:48Pass.
01:49St. Patrick.
01:50What sport is associated with Wentworth and Sunningdale?
01:54Tinas.
01:55Golf.
01:55What 80s pop band was named after the mad scientist in Barbarella?
01:59Pass.
02:00Duran Duran.
02:01Kirk Douglas played which rebel slave in a 1960 film?
02:04Pass.
02:05Spartacus.
02:06What river is formed by the meeting of the Goit and Tame Rivers at Stockport?
02:10Pass.
02:11It's Mersey.
02:12In a kids' TV show, who lived in his house with Zaza the Cat?
02:17Pass.
02:17Hector, Jean Valjean and Cossette are characters in what musical?
02:22Pass.
02:22Les Miserables.
02:23Which East German figure skater won two Olympic golds in the 80s?
02:26Yes.
02:27Katarina Witt.
02:28Which former EastEnders star was given the freedom of the city of London in 2010?
02:32Pass.
02:33Barbara Windsor.
02:34Who sang with Don Travolta on You're the One That I Want?
02:37Olivia Newton-John.
02:38Yes.
02:39And time is up.
02:42Well, you know what?
02:43There are questions in there, I promise you, no Kiwi would possibly know.
02:48Five thousand pounds, but you don't know what you're going to get dealt up, do you?
02:52But you could have to face the chaser.
02:54So, Catherine, who will you be up against today?
02:57Will it be barrister Sean Wallace?
03:00He's got the brains of a supercomputer and a social life to match.
03:05Or will it be Anne Hegarty?
03:07Yeah, she's a real knockout, but only if you get really close to her.
03:10Or is it Mark Lebet?
03:12He does six pub quizzes a week and never misses the meat raffle.
03:16Right.
03:17Are you ready?
03:18It's time to bring on the chaser.
03:24Oh, it's the mastermind champ himself, the Dark Destroyer.
03:27It is Sean Wallace.
03:32Good afternoon, Catherine.
03:34Hi.
03:34Got a bit nervous there, didn't you?
03:36I did.
03:36Maybe the questions were a bit too parochial for you.
03:39Yeah.
03:40Let's put some money on the table, Catherine.
03:42This is going to be interesting.
03:43If you wish to take a step closer to home, the chaser will offer you...
03:46£100.
03:47£100.
03:48But if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you...
03:52A knockout offer.
03:53£11,000.
03:55£11,000.
03:56You better have a chat with your team.
03:59Multiple choice this time, so you've got an answer in front of you, so I reckon you should
04:03stick with £1,000.
04:05I think that's a safe call.
04:06Stay on £1,000 and bring it home.
04:08We do want you in the final chase, Catherine, but don't be intimidated by this guy here,
04:13okay?
04:14Thanks, guys.
04:14Thank you, team.
04:15Right.
04:16Now then, Catherine, time for a decision.
04:19You know, I was so atrocious on that last round that I think I need to take the safe option
04:24and just go with £100.
04:27Regretfully.
04:28Team?
04:30You've got a multiple choice, Catherine.
04:32Yeah, be confident.
04:33Yeah.
04:34Your chances are the questions coming up will suit you more.
04:37Unfortunately, she's made her decision, boys.
04:40It is £100.
04:42Thank you very much.
04:43Chaser?
04:44Oh, that's very disappointing.
04:45I thought that you could have gone for £1,000.
04:48But I'm still going to try and catch you.
04:50We shall see.
04:52Catherine?
04:53For £100, the chase is on.
05:01Good luck.
05:01Here comes the first question.
05:05Which of these American states is the furthest south?
05:08Is it A, Idaho, B, Colorado, C, Texas?
05:17You put Texas.
05:21Well, it was a toss-up between Texas and Colorado.
05:23My instincts in Colorado, but I changed it at the last second.
05:30Gut instincts.
05:31That's the reason they're gut instincts, because you've heard it somewhere before.
05:34And the chasers will always tell you.
05:35Got to go with that.
05:37Correct answer is...
05:38Well played.
05:41Good job you didn't go with your gut instincts.
05:45The chaser has put.
05:48Yes, I knew that straight away.
05:50Here's the next question.
05:53Which of Henry VIII's six wives had four husbands herself?
05:59Was it A, Catherine of Aragon,
06:01B, Jane Seymour,
06:02or C, Catherine Parr?
06:04You put.
06:11Catherine of Aragon, how's your history?
06:14Not that good that far back.
06:17Complete guess, really.
06:18Correct answer is...
06:21Catherine Parr, staying where you are.
06:23The chaser has put.
06:27Yes, getting it right and closing that gap.
06:30Here's the next question.
06:31Which of these footballers joined Manchester United in 2006?
06:40Was it A, Michael Balak,
06:42B, Joe Cole,
06:43or C, Michael Carrick?
06:46You put.
06:49Joe Cole.
06:51He's the only one I've heard of.
06:54Sorry, England.
06:56Correct answer is...
06:58Michael Carrick.
07:02Spurs lad.
07:03Now, let me tell you,
07:04he's a massive football fan.
07:07Big Chelsea fan.
07:09So he'll know
07:09two of those players on there.
07:12The chaser has put.
07:16Mm, mm, mm, Michael Carrick.
07:18Indeed, you're quite right.
07:20They play for my favourite club,
07:21Balak and Cole, Chelsea.
07:23Here's your next question.
07:25After joining the M1 at its northern end,
07:29what is the first junction you come to?
07:33A, 27,
07:34B, 37,
07:36or C, 47?
07:42You've put.
07:4547.
07:46I don't know.
07:47I was working on the logic
07:48that the numbers will get higher
07:49the further north you go.
07:51Of course.
07:51And it was quite north.
07:53Strange enough,
07:54it is very north, yes.
07:55Correct answer is...
07:58Well played.
07:59Very good.
08:00Team like it.
08:02The chaser has put...
08:0537!
08:07He's got it wrong.
08:09This is good news.
08:11The barrister.
08:12I mean,
08:12you must have had cases up in Leeds.
08:13I normally take the train or fly up.
08:16OK.
08:17Here's your next question.
08:19What two words begin every title
08:22in Stieg Larsson's Millennium Trilogy?
08:25Is it A,
08:25The Day,
08:26B,
08:27The Man,
08:28C,
08:28The Girl?
08:31You put.
08:33The Day.
08:34Big fan of Stieg's?
08:36Not at all.
08:37All right.
08:38Correct answer is...
08:40The Girl.
08:43Staying Where You Are.
08:45The Chaser Has Put.
08:49Yes,
08:49The Girl.
08:50Indeed,
08:50his latest book is
08:51The Girl Who Kicked Your Hornets Nest,
08:53I believe.
08:53OK.
08:54Here's your next question.
09:00Now,
09:00if you get this wrong,
09:01you might as well walk out the studio now.
09:03How many stars appear on the flag of New Zealand?
09:06Is it A,
09:074,
09:08B,
09:098,
09:09or C,
09:1012?
09:15You have put
09:164.
09:19You sure about that?
09:19I know my flag.
09:21It's, um,
09:21and the stars represent the points of the Southern Cross.
09:23Right.
09:24The correct answer is,
09:26hopefully.
09:28Yeah,
09:29well done.
09:29One step from home.
09:30Now then.
09:31Come on.
09:32That's good.
09:33The Chaser has put
09:344.
09:37All right.
09:38We need to get out now.
09:39Come on.
09:40Here is what I'm hoping is going to be your last question.
09:42Which jockey
09:45rode the winning horse
09:47in the 2010 Derby?
09:50A,
09:51Kieran Fallon.
09:52B,
09:53Frankie Dessori.
09:54C,
09:54Ryan Moore.
09:57You put
09:58Kieran Fallon.
10:01Mm-hmm.
10:02I think it's A or B.
10:02I don't think it's C.
10:04It's just a name
10:05that resonates with me for some reason.
10:08OK.
10:10To get out with 100 pounds,
10:11the correct answer is,
10:16Ryan Moore.
10:18OK.
10:19The Chaser has put.
10:23Yes,
10:23indeed.
10:24And immediately closes the gap
10:25and is the one step behind us.
10:27I believe the horse is called Workforce
10:29and it also went on to win the Arc of Triumph.
10:31Thank you for that,
10:32Chaser.
10:33Here's your next question.
10:37Who was born
10:38Thomas Mappather IV?
10:40A,
10:41Tom Hanks.
10:43B,
10:43Tom Cruise.
10:44Or C,
10:45Tommy Lee Jones.
10:50You have put
10:51Tommy Lee Jones.
10:54I don't actually know.
10:56This is a guess, isn't it?
10:57Total guess.
10:57To get out with 100 pounds,
11:01you've put Tommy Lee Jones.
11:02The correct answer is...
11:06Ouch.
11:08Tom Cruise.
11:09OK.
11:10If he knows this,
11:12we're out.
11:14The Chaser has put.
11:16Please be wrong.
11:17Oh, I'm so,
11:21so sorry.
11:23Yeah,
11:24got it right.
11:25Oh.
11:26Almost made it to the very end,
11:27Catherine,

11:31Catherine,
11:31I'm sorry,
11:32but for you,
11:32you've been caught
11:33and the chase is over.
11:35Bye-bye.

16:40Was it
16:40A,
16:40the Footprint Handbooks,
16:42B,
16:43Lonely Planet,
16:43or C,
16:44Rough Guides?
16:47You put
16:48Lonely Planet.
16:51Travelling yourself?
16:52Not as much
16:53as I
16:54probably ought to be,
16:56but I've heard of
16:57the Lonely Planet travel guides.
16:59So that's why I've gone for those.
17:01Very good.
17:02Correct answer is...
17:05Well played.
17:06Brilliant.
17:07The chaser has put...
17:10Also Lonely Planet.
17:12I believe Rough Guides
17:13were formed
17:1310 years later
17:14in 1982,
17:15I believe.
17:17Here's your next question.
17:20Which of these countries
17:21did not
17:22play in the
17:232007 Rugby World Cup?
17:25Was it
17:25A,
17:26Portugal,
17:26B,
17:27Georgia,
17:27C,
17:28Ivory Coast?
17:31You put
17:32Portugal.
17:34I remember Georgia
17:35being there.
17:37I think
17:37the Ivory Coast
17:39were there,
17:40but I don't quite remember
17:41Portugal.
17:42The correct answer is...
17:45Ivory Coast.
17:47You've got to stay
17:48where you are.
17:49The chaser has put...
17:52Ivory Coast
17:53into it
17:54and closes the gap.
17:55Wrong World Cup then.
17:57Well,
17:57indeed.
17:58Never mind.
17:59We've still got a couple
18:00to go,
18:00but we're doing alright.
18:01There's still a bit of daylight.
18:02Here's your next question.
18:04Buckminster Fullerene
18:05is a molecular form

18:09tin,
18:10B,
18:10carbon,
18:11C,
18:11lead.
18:14You put
18:15carbon.
18:18I believe,
18:19well,
18:19at least the last part
18:21of that name,
18:22Fullerene,
18:22I believe is a form of carbon.
18:24I believe it's in
18:25circular form.
18:27Fantastic.
18:29Correct answer is...
18:31Well played.
18:32Carbon's the right answer.
18:34The chaser has put...
18:38Hmm.
18:39Yeah,
18:39named after the famous
18:40architect Buckminster Fuller
18:41Mr. Fuller.
18:41Well,
18:42what a lovely knowledge.
18:44Okay,
18:45one more to go
18:45and you're through.
18:46Here's your next question.
18:49The town of Portishead

18:53Is it A,
18:54Hull,
18:54B,
18:55Bristol,
18:55C,
18:56C,
18:56Portsmouth.
18:57You put...
19:00Bristol.
19:02Happy with that?
19:03Very happy.
19:04Bristol is where that band are from.
19:06Yeah.
19:06So they named the band after that town.
19:10Of course.
19:11There you are.
19:12You put Bristol to go through with three grand.
19:13And the correct answer is...
19:15Bristol.
19:18Absolutely,
19:18we're through.
19:19Well played.
19:20Brilliant.
19:21Well done.
19:21Okay.
19:23Chaser.
19:23Well played.
19:24Absolutely well played.
19:25But still,
19:26there was that gap.
19:27Could have gone for the 30,000.
19:28Well,
19:29I wanted to be in that final chase
19:31when certain risks
19:32just aren't worth taking.
19:34Especially against somebody like me.
19:36I don't think so.
19:38Good man.
19:38You cannot take your place
19:39in the final chase.
19:40Thanks, man.
19:40Thanks very much.
19:41There you go.
19:42Good to see you.
19:43Very good.
19:44Played well.

20:03All right.

20:06with the sport of fencing
20:07and I'm a director of the sport
20:09and a referee now.

20:14I finished.
20:16Quick reflexes.

20:17but sometimes you use
20:18the power of your mind
20:20to overcome
20:20somebody else's
20:21athletic ability.
20:23Well,

21:40Yeah.
21:40Yeah, but nonetheless,
21:42£4,000 Murray.
21:43That's not too bad.
21:44See if you fancy
21:45taking on the chaser.
21:46You might get dealt up
21:47a very large amount.
21:48Are you ready?
21:48Yep.
21:49Good man.
21:49It's time to face the chaser.
22:02Good afternoon, Murray.
22:03Good afternoon.
22:04Slightly average performance there.
22:06A bit hesitant in some areas.
22:08A little bit, yeah.
22:09I'm sure I can do better.
22:10Let's see.
22:11Indeed.
22:12Let's put some money on the table.
22:13There's your £4,000.
22:14If you want to take a step
22:15closer to home, Murray,
22:16the chaser will offer you...
22:17£1,000.
22:19But if you want to take
22:20a step closer to him,
22:21he will offer you...
22:22£20,000.
22:24There you are.
22:24£20,000.
22:25Have a chat with your team.
22:27Well, we were both saying up here
22:29that Akena could have done it
22:31with the £30,000,
22:32so I reckon you can still do it
22:33with the £20,000.
22:34I've got faith in you.
22:35I reckon you can take this guy.
22:37I reckon you could,
22:37but you know...
22:38We do want you...
22:39Then we want you here as well.
22:40Yeah.
22:41Thank you, team.
22:42Need a decision, please, Murray.
22:44It's a difficult choice.
22:45It is.
22:46I'm going to go for it.
22:47I'm going to go for the £20,000.
22:49You're going for it?
22:49Yeah.
22:50I think I can do this.
22:51There it is.
22:51£20,000,
22:52and I tell you what,
22:53this is what we love here.
22:55Chaser.
22:55Fair play to you, Murray.
22:56What have I just done?
22:58En garde.
23:00En garde indeed.
23:01For £20,000, Murray,
23:03the chase is on.
23:09Good luck.
23:10Here comes the first question.
23:12Which title character
23:15in a Mozart opera
23:16is said to have had
23:182,065 lovers?
23:21Is it A, Tito,
23:23B, Figaro,
23:24C, Don Giovanni?
23:28You put...
23:30Don Giovanni.
23:31Any particular reason?
23:33Well, I studied music at university,
23:35so I hope I've got this one.
23:37Good man.
23:38Correct answer is...
23:41Rock and roll.
23:41Let's do it.
23:42Step closer to home.
23:43That's the first one out of the way.
23:44All right.
23:45Yeah, doing great, mate.
23:46Don't worry.
23:46The chaser has put...
23:49And also knows Don Giovanni
23:51remains the status quo behind us.
23:52We'll move straight on
23:53to the next question.
23:56Which of these department store founders
23:58was a footman to Queen Anne?
24:01Was it A, Gordon Selfridge,
24:03B, William Fortnum,
24:05or C, Charles Harrod?
24:07You put William Fortnum.
24:15Any particular reason?
24:17I know Queen Anne was around
24:19in the early 1700s,
24:21and I think that's about
24:22the age of Fortnum and Mason,
24:23so that's my guess.
24:25Great.
24:25I like it.
24:26Correct answer is...
24:29Bring it on.
24:30Well done.
24:31Okay.
24:32Yeah, it's really good, mate.
24:33Really good.
24:34The chaser has put...
24:36Yeah, I knew that straight away.
24:39Very good.
24:39Is that a guess as well,
24:40or did you know that?
24:41I knew that.
24:41Oh, well.
24:42Here's your next question.
24:45Who wrote the novels
24:47Mr. McGregor and Animal Instincts?
24:50Was it A, Monty Don,
24:51B, Alan Titchmarsh,
24:53or C, Charlie Dimmock?
24:58You put...
24:59Alan Titchmarsh.
25:02Yeah.
25:02He writes novels, doesn't he?
25:04Yeah, but I think so does Monty Don,
25:06so it's, again, a bit of a guess.
25:09Well, let's hope it's right.
25:10The correct answer is...
25:13Very good.
25:16Now, the chaser has put...
25:20and is with us all the way.
25:23He's not letting go, is he?
25:24He's very good at guessing.
25:25He is.
25:26Oh, I knew that one as well.
25:27Here's your next question.
25:28The Turner Prize is open to artists under what age?
25:34Is it A, 40, B, 50, C, 60?
25:37Mm, you've put...
25:4140.
25:43Happy with that?
25:44Yeah.
25:45Sort of guess.
25:46I heard it mentioned on the radio the other day,
25:49but I don't know if I remember correctly, so...
25:52The correct answer is...
25:55Unlucky.
25:56Staying where we are.
25:57The chaser has put...
26:01Yeah, I've got it right, and there's one step behind us.
26:04He's looming there.
26:05All right, we've got to get this question right now, Murray.
26:07Three more and we're home and drive with 20 grand.
26:09Here's your next question.
26:12Loved by Apollo, the youth Hyacinthus was accidentally killed by what object?
26:19Was it A, a discus, B, a javelin, or C, an arrow?
26:25You put...
26:27An arrow.
26:28It's a guess, but, um, I was hoping Plant Pot would come up, but...
26:33Plant Pot.
26:36Well, let's hope we guess correctly, because we live to fight in another day,
26:40and then we would only be two steps from home.
26:42If we're wrong, the chances are he'll know this, and he's going to knock us out.
26:46The correct answer is...
26:50Discus.
26:52Okay.
26:53If he's right, we're out.
26:56To stay in the game, this has to be wrong.
26:58The chaser has put...
27:02Discus.
27:04Ouch.
27:05Okay.
27:07Chaser.
27:08That was a very commendable effort.
27:09Very commendable.
27:10Yeah.
27:11Well, I thought we were going to get there.
27:13I really did, because you were on a roll there to start.
27:14Started well, but...
27:15Yeah, you started well.
27:16But unfortunately, Murray, for you, you have been caught, and the chase is over.
27:20Thank you very much.
27:23I love it, Murray.
27:25Do you love a tryer?
27:26I do love a tryer.
27:27But I'm on a mission.
27:28You are, indeed.
27:30Doesn't bode well for John, and he's up next.
27:33Will you outrun the chaser?
27:35Find out after the break.
27:38And last to face the chaser is John.
27:41Welcome.
27:41Thanks, Brad.
27:42All the way from Croydon.
27:43Yeah, lovely place.
27:44Now, you're in the police force, sort of.
27:46Yes, I am.
27:46Yeah, are you good?
27:47What do you do in the police force?
27:49I can't tell you.
27:49It's secret squirrel stuff, so it's a bit, you know.
27:51Oh, is it?
27:51Oh, yeah.
27:52Is it sort of in the old one of them?
27:54Yeah.
27:54Well, yeah.
27:55More like one of them, really.
27:56Is it?
27:57Clear enough.
27:58Fantastic.
27:58All right, now, if you won some money, John, what would you spend it on?
28:01I'm going to finish my wish to go on every rollercoaster in America before I pop my clogs,
28:05because I'm 50.
28:05I've got to be careful now.
28:07You're kidding me.
28:08One more place to do in Ohio, and then I'm done.
28:10I've done every major rollercoaster in America.
28:13Fantastic.
28:14Now, then, quick fire questions.
28:16Each correct answer is worth a thousand pounds.
28:18I wish you luck.

29:24Very...
29:25I like your style.
29:265,000 pounds, John.
29:27Not bad.
29:28That'll do you, mate.
29:29Yeah.
29:29All we've got to do is get past this roller coaster now.
29:32It's time to face the chaser.
29:33Good afternoon, John.
29:46Hello, Sean.
29:47How are you?
29:48Not too bad.
29:48If you thought the cash builder was scary, now you're going to have a real white knuckle ride.
29:52Okay.
29:52Looking forward to it.
29:53So am I.
29:55Let's put some money on the table.
29:575,000.
29:58That's not bad.
29:59If you want to take a step closer to the home, though, the chaser will offer you...
30:021,000 pounds.
30:03However, if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you...
30:0737,000 pounds.
30:1037,000.
30:11That would bring the total up to 40k.
30:13And if you want that to be 20k each, have a chat with Ekenna.
30:17What do you think, mate?
30:18Do you want me to go for the big money or get there with you, though?
30:20That's the only thing I'm concerned about.
30:21I want to take this guy on here with you.
30:24All right.
30:24Two heads are better than one.
30:26I want you here.
30:27Yeah.
30:28Thank you, Ekenna.
30:2937,000, though.
30:31Woo, it's a lot of bread.
30:32That is so tempting.
30:34But I'm going to stick to 5k because I want to be there.
30:36I don't want him left on his own.
30:385k, it is.
30:39I thought he was going to go for it.
30:40Chaser.
30:40Well, I thought you were going to go for it because weren't you giving encouragement to all the other players to actually go for the higher offers?
30:45If there was more than just Ekenna there, I would have done it.
30:48But I want to be with him.
30:49I don't want to risk it.
30:50Right.
30:51Let's get on.
30:51Here we go.
30:52John, I wish you luck, mate.
30:53Cheers.
30:53For 5k, the chase is on.
31:00Good luck.
31:01Here comes the first question.
31:03Come on, mate.
31:03Let's take him down.
31:04Right.
31:04Which of these Batman films was released first?
31:09A, Batman Begins, B, The Dark Knight, C, Batman Forever.
31:18You put Batman Forever.
31:21I thought Batman Begins is too obvious.
31:25Yeah.
31:25But I have a feeling now it's The Dark Knight.
31:27Could be.
31:28Correct answer is?
31:31Brilliant stuff.
31:32Step close down.
31:33Well played, mate.
31:34The chase has put?
31:39Yes, Batman Forever.
31:40I was hoping you were going to make the mistake in relation to those films, Batman Begins and
31:44Dark Knight, because they were with Christian Bale and Batman Forever, I believe, is pre-Christian
31:49Bale.
31:49Yeah, absolutely.
31:51Here's the next question.
31:53Which company's 1980s privatisation was publicised with a slogan, if you see Sid, tell him?
32:00A, British Telecom, B, British Rail, C, British Gas.
32:07You put?
32:09British Gas.
32:11Happy with that?
32:11Very.
32:12Yeah.
32:13Correct answer is?
32:16Absolutely.
32:17Just the right H and all this stuff.
32:18Perfect.
32:19Step close to the home.
32:20Chaser has put?
32:23British Gas and comes down the table.
32:25Here's the next question.
32:27The composer handle is buried where?
32:32A, St Paul's Cathedral, B, Highgate Cemetery, C, Westminster Abbey.
32:41You've put?
32:43Highgate Cemetery.
32:45I was hoping the ground was going to come up.
32:49I haven't got a Scooby, mate.
32:50Really?
32:51Really.
32:52That's a toughie.
32:53It is a toughie.
32:54You know, don't you?
32:54He knows, don't you worry about that.
32:56You've put Highgate Cemetery, though, John.
32:58Fingers crossed.
32:59Correct answer is?
33:02Westminster Abbey.
33:04Never mind.
33:04Staying where we are.
33:05The chaser has put?
33:08Yeah.
33:09Oh, he's got it wrong!
33:11Believe it, Bradley.
33:12I pressed the wrong button.
33:13At last, I knew it had to happen sooner or later.
33:18That's a reprieve.
33:19Well, that's an omen, I think, John.
33:21Here's your next question.
33:24What's the longest suspension bridge in the United Kingdom?
33:27Is it A, the 7th, B, 4th, C, Humber?
33:30You've put?
33:364th.
33:38Between the 7th and the 4th.
33:40But as 4 comes before 7th, why not?
33:42Exactly.
33:43Correct answer is?
33:46Oh.
33:46No, what a nightmare.
33:48Humber, got to stay where we are.
33:50Chaser has put.
33:54Yeah, the Humber, and makes up for that mistake last time.
33:56Yeah, this time I'll press the right button.
33:58Yeah.
33:58Here's the next question.
33:59In geometry, how many faces does an icosahedron have?
34:07Is it A, 20, B, 40, C, 60?
34:14You put?
34:1620.
34:19Just because it's there, mate.
34:21Really?
34:22Hope it is.
34:23Correct answer is?
34:24Please be 20.
34:25Yeah, please be 20.
34:28Get in.
34:29Well done.
34:30Step closer to home, that's good news.
34:33The chaser's put.
34:37Yes.
34:38Come on, we've got to get going.
34:40Here's the next question.
34:43What dog breed is the mascot of Hush Puppy's Shoes?
34:48Is it A, Jack Russell, B, Basset Hound, C, Cocker Spaniel?
34:53You put?
34:56Basset Hound.
34:57I remember it with the long floppy ears.
34:58Absolutely.
34:59Absolutely.
34:59Correct answer is?
35:03Basset Hound it is.
35:04One step from home.
35:05It's going well now.
35:06We're on a roll.
35:07The chaser has put.
35:10Basset Hound also remains the two steps behind us.
35:13Now then, I want this to be your last question in this part of the game.
35:16Hope so.
35:16Because that means you've gone through to the final chase with E. Kenner.
35:19Good luck, John.
35:20Cheers.
35:20Here's your question.
35:22What, John, was the first name of George Washington's wife?
35:27A, Sarah, B, Abigail, C, Martha.
35:31You put?
35:35Martha.
35:35I thought it was Mary.
35:37Put Martha.
35:39Because you thought it was Mary.
35:40Yeah, Mary.
35:40I think, I'm sure it's Martha then.
35:43Right.
35:44The correct answer is to go through.
35:46Come on, John.
35:49Well done.
35:50Well done.
35:51Well done, man.
35:52Well done.
35:53Well done.
35:54Maybe then we should have gone for the 37.
35:57Maybe we should have done, but as I say, it was my mistake in relation to pressing A instead of C.
36:02That would have got me.
36:03That would have put you under pressure.
36:03I'm not going to be greedy.
36:04I'm happy with that.
36:05Indeed.
36:06Go and join E. Kenner because that was a roller coaster.
36:08Lovely.
36:09Cheers, mate.
36:09Oh, he got away.
36:13What a lucky escape.
36:15Exactly.
36:15He's had a lucky escape, though.
36:16He really has.
36:17So, John goes through to the final chase alongside E. Kenner.
36:21There's £8,000 in the total prize fund.
36:23Can they take home four grand each?
36:25Find out after the break.
36:29Ah, welcome back.
36:30Two players.
36:31E. Kenner and John have made it through to the final chase with a total prize fund of £8,000.
36:35Now, on the buzzer and against the clock, the team must answer as many questions as they can.
36:39Each correct answer, taking them a step further away from the chaser.
36:42Then the chaser will have the same amount of time to try and catch the team.
36:46If he does, the team will leave with nothing.
36:48However, if he doesn't, they'll go home with £4,000 each.
36:52That would be nice, lads, wouldn't they?
36:53Very nice.
