00:00These four people have never met before but by working as a team they have the
00:04chance to win thousands of pounds. There's just one thing standing in their
00:07way, the chaser. The chase is on.
00:19Hello and welcome to the chase. Today's team of four total strangers believe they
00:23have what it takes to beat one of Britain's finest quiz brains and take
00:26home thousands of pounds. Do they? Let's meet the team. I'm Dave, I'm 30, I'm a chef from
00:32Barnsley. I'm Vicky, I'm 32 and I'm a stay-at-home mum from Newport. I'm Leslie, I'm 43, I'm a
00:38graphic design consultant from Middlesex. I'm Toby, I'm 43, I'm a football
00:43supporter service advisor from Manchester. That's the team, one by one, they've got to
00:47win as much money as they can, bring it safely down the table and into the team
00:50prize fund. As ever, hunting them down every step of the way is the chaser. Anyone
00:55gets caught, loses their money and is out of the game, but if they make it back, they
00:59go through to the final chase with the chance to win an equal share of that total
01:02prize fund. And first to face the chaser, it's Dave.
01:09Welcome Dave. How are you doing? I'm not bad mate, thank you. Barnsley. Aye. Aye. Have you got any children?
01:15I've got one and one on the way. Oh really? That's excellent stuff. If you won some money
01:19what would you do with it? I want a bit of stability and something to give to the kids
01:23later on in a year, so it's probably going to go for a house. Great. All right, well let's see
01:26what we can do. This is how it works. One minute quickfire questions. Each correct
01:30answer is worth a thousand pounds. I wish you luck. Your time starts now. What fruit did
01:36William Tell shoot off his son's head with an apple? Correct. Which character first said go
01:40ahead make my day in the film's sudden impact? Pass. Dirty Harry. The Cricket on the
01:45Half is an 1845 Christmas book by who? Pass. Charles Dickens. Do the Conga and Agadoo
01:51were hits for what pop group? Black Lace. Correct. If you ordered moules in a French restaurant
01:56what would you get? More sauce. Correct. Which Spanish cyclist on his third Tour de France? Miguel
02:00Indoran. No, it's Alberto Contador. What daily newspaper is nicknamed the Toregraph? Telegraph.
02:06Correct. Which king of England was the target of the gunpowder plot? James I. Correct. Who won a
02:11best actor Oscar for playing the title role in Capote? Pass. Philip Seymour Hoffman. Nancy
02:16Spongen was the girlfriend of which Sex Pistol? Pass. Sid Vicious. Nicknamed the Cherries, what
02:22football club plays at Dean Court? Pass. Bournemouth. Psychologist Dr. Phil McGraw found fame at what
02:28talk show? Pass. Oprah. In the nursery rhyme who is described as quite contrary? Mary Mary.
02:34Correct. George W. Bush proving... Well there you go. £6,000 though. That's not bad is it? It'll do for now.
02:43What we've got to do now of course is get you and it through to the final chase. It's time to face
02:47the chaser. But who Dave will he be up against today? Will it be Mark Labette? There he is,
02:52the beast. Part-time quiz fiend. Part-time maths teacher which adds up to full-time trouble. Or will
02:58it be Anne Hegarty? Hard-nosed Harridan who's gonna hurry down the board to catch you? Or will it be Sean
03:04Wallace? Suave, smooth, top criminal barrister. He puts the ooh in judition. Who'd be a fancy taking on? Or who
03:12scares you the most? The man who scares me the most is Sean. Right. He is more of an animal than
03:19the beast. Really? He is. And the one I really want to see is Anne. Really? You want to take on Anne?
03:25I've seen her before and she gups like a stranded guppy fish. I can have her. You can? I can. Let's
03:34bring on the chaser. It's the one and only. It's the dark destroyer. It is barrister Sean Wallace.
03:48Hello Dave. How do you know? You just insulted my fellow chaser. I wouldn't say insulted. I would
03:55just say more described. Well I'm here to defend her honour. Very gentlemanly of you. The gloves are
04:01obviously off. Dave as always you get a three-step head start on the chaser. There you are. Put your
04:06money on the table. There's your six grand. If you wish to take a step closer to home the chaser
04:10will offer you £1,000. However if you want to take a step closer to the chaser and really take it on.
04:17If you want that dream home £18,000. Get in. You better turn around. Have a chat with your team.
04:25Shaky start guys but what do you think? Depends how confident you feel Dave. How did that start?
04:35Well. You can only get better. I think because of some of the questions if you'd have had them in
04:41front of you you'd have known them. Yeah. So. I think £18,000 is a nice amount of money but £6,000 is a nice
04:48amount to put in the bank to start us off. And you do want to be in it at the end. I do. Thank you team.
04:53Okay. Dave. So Dave it's your decision. Gambling man? I'll stay with £6,000.
05:01Oh I thought you were going to go for it then. I really did. You had a look in your eye.
05:05That's a recipe for disaster. So let's bring that money home. Dave you will answer the same
05:11questions at the same time as the chaser. If you get a question correct you will take a step closer
05:15to home. However if you get it wrong you stay where you are giving the chaser the chance to close the gap.
05:19If you're caught you know the money is gone and you are out of the game. Are you ready?
05:25I am. For £6,000 the chase is on.
05:28Good luck mate. Here comes the first question.
05:38Do the boys hall is an important location in which Dickens novel?
05:43Is it A. Nicholas Nickleby? B. Oliver Twist? Or C. Bleak House?
05:53You put. Bleak House. You know your dick in stuff?
05:58Not at all.
05:59Just a guess?
06:00Absolute guess.
06:01Right. Well let's put you out of your misery. The correct answer is...
06:06Nicholas Nickleby. You're staying where you are.
06:09Giving the chaser the chance to close the gap. The chaser has put.
06:14Yes. Straight away.
06:17Not a good start. Here's the next question.
06:20Which of these composers was born first?
06:23Was it A. Britain? B. Brahms? Or C. Beethoven?
06:31You put. Brahms.
06:35Another guess?
06:35Do you know something? I'm starting to feel like I shouldn't be on here. Yes, I guess.
06:40Listen, plenty of people have guessed and made it all the way back.
06:43Correct answer is...
06:47Beethoven. Unlucky. You're staying again where you are.
06:51The chaser's put.
06:54Yes, Beethoven and closes the gap immediately. Breathing down your neck.
06:5817.17 to 18.27.
07:00Thank you very much.
07:02Got to start getting these right, mate.
07:04Here's your next question.
07:07Together with co-presenter Johnny Vaughan, who left the Big Breakfast in 2001?
07:14Is it A. Gabby Roslin, B. Denise Van Outen or C. Kelly Brook?
07:18You put.
07:23Denise Van Outen. Pretty confident there?
07:25I'm fairly confident. I was never a big watcher, but I do seem to remember something about them both leading.
07:31Correct answer is...
07:35Yes, well done. Up and running. Bit of confidence now. That's good.
07:38The chaser has put.
07:39One take. Denise Van Outen. Very good.
07:45I just watch it every morning. Very entertaining it was.
07:47Here's the next question.
07:50Which acid is produced by the body during anaerobic exercise?
07:55Is it A. Lactic? Is it B. Uric? Or is it C. Ethanoic?
08:02You put.
08:04Lactic.
08:05Absolutely certain on this one.
08:06Certain?
08:07If it turns out to be wrong, I'll look fairly stupid.
08:10The correct answer is...
08:11Excellent. Lactic acid it is.
08:15And now we're sort of doing all right. We're on a roll.
08:18The chaser has put.
08:21Also lactic acid and stays that step behind.
08:25Here's the next question.
08:26The word taboo comes from which language?
08:29A. Turkish. B. Tongan.
08:31Or C. Thai.
08:36You put.
08:38Thai.
08:39I seem to remember reading something about the origin of the word taboo.
08:43Not Turkish or Tongan.
08:45Not as far as I know, but then it couldn't be Thai either.
08:49You put Thai. The correct answer is...
08:56Tongan. Ouch.
08:59Got to stay there with our six grand.
09:01We're going to pray this is wrong.
09:02If he's right, we're wiped out and we're immediately out of the game.
09:06The chaser has put.
09:13Tongan.
09:15Dave, that is an early, early exit.
09:18I am so sorry.
09:20Thanks for the game, chaser.
09:21Dave. My pleasure.
09:22I'm sorry. You have been caught.
09:23A few. The chase is over.
09:25It's over.
09:29Wow. That was quick.
09:30I'm in a very determined mood.
09:32I'm not mucking about today.
09:34So, they're in trouble, I think.
09:38He's really got the hump.
09:39Come back and find out what happens on the chase in a minute, because next up, it's Vicky.

10:04Is it like a belt in judo you have and stuff?

12:46Fine, that's great.
12:47Take away the other amounts.
12:49Chaser.

13:30I'm pretty sure it's not BS.
13:32It's literally across the bridge.
13:34It's not my postcode.
13:35I'm pretty sure it's not BS, though.
13:38Right, correct answer is...
13:40What's BS?
13:44I'm astonished for a person who lives in Newport.
13:46I know, it's just literally down the street.
13:49Don't worry, you've got to stay where you are.
13:50The Chaser has put...
13:54Yes, BS it is.

15:10You have?
15:11Again, not sure.
15:13Erm, before my time really.
15:16Not old enough.
15:18Roger's got to be right.

15:42Let's be wrong.
15:43Please be wrong.
15:44The Chaser has put...

15:54Nothing good.
15:55I used to watch it every Sunday night.
15:57Do you know who his wife was called?
15:59Veronica.
16:00Oh, thank you very much.
16:03That's a wonderful nugget we're not really interested in.
16:06Vicky, I'm so sorry.

16:41or if I had a little bit more, I'd like to go on holiday.
16:43Great stuff.
16:44Where would you go on holiday?
16:45Well, I don't know.
16:46I mean, working for myself, I've got more chance for holiday at the minute
16:48than West Ham ever winning the league.

19:52The correct answer is...
19:55American Football it is.
19:57We take a step closer to home.
19:58The chaser has put...
20:01Yes, American Football or Gridiron.
20:03Hey, Gridiron.
20:04My favourite quarterback of all time was...
20:06Dan Marino.
20:07No, mine was John Elway, because he is the most successful one.
20:10Great stuff.
20:11Here's your next question.
20:13The advertising slogan, good to the last drop, was created for which product?
20:19Was it A, Guinness Stout, B, John Smith's Bitter or C, Maxwell House Coffee?
20:24Right, Lesley, you put Guinness Stout.
20:34Yeah, I'm kind of thinking it might not be now.
20:37I was torn between A, I was torn between A and B.
20:40The correct answer is...
20:42Maxwell House Coffee, got to stay where we are.
20:48Will he know it?
20:49The chaser has put...
20:49Yeah, Maxwell House Coffee.
20:52Yeah, Maxwell House Coffee.
20:55Here's the next question.
20:59Tony Hadley is the front man for which band?
21:02A, Spandau Ballet, B, Duran Duran or C, Roxy Music?
21:08You put...
21:12Spandau Ballet.
21:14Yeah.
21:14Yeah, what a fantastic voice.
21:17Yeah.
21:17The correct answer is...
21:19Spandau Ballet, of course it is, good old tone.
21:23We come and keep a step closer to home.
21:26Look at misery cuts up there.
21:28The chaser has put...
21:31Spandau Ballet.
21:32You know why I like Tony Hadley as well?
21:34Go on.
21:34We share the same birthday.
21:36Really?
21:37That's something I'd never have known.
21:38No, I know, they're almost twins.
21:40I'll send him a card, actually.
21:41Yeah, only that he's better looking.
21:43Yeah.
21:44No, no, don't take it away from yourself.
21:45You're, you're, no, you're right, he is better looking.
21:48Yeah.
21:49Here's the next question.
21:49Which country boasts the most westerly point on the British mainland?
21:57A, England, B, Scotland, or C, Wales?
22:07Ooh, you've put Scotland.
22:10I wish I had it now.
22:13I wish I put Wales.
22:15Really?
22:16Yeah, because I'm thinking of Scottish islands and it says mainland.
22:19Well, hey, we're in for a penny now.
22:21Yeah.
22:22The correct answer is...
22:26What a guess.
22:30How did we end up there?
22:31I don't know.
22:33I don't know, but I love Scotland now.
22:34Well, anyway, we get a step closer to home.
22:36It's fantastic.
22:37The chaser was put...
22:39I'll be wrong.
22:44Next question.
22:45Pinchbeck, used as an imitation gold in jewellery, is an alloy of copper and which other metal?
22:53Is it A, iron, B, tin, or C, zinc?
22:57You've put...
23:00Tin.
23:02Complete guess.
23:04Really?
23:04Yeah.
23:05Okay.
23:06Correct answer is...
23:08Zinc.
23:11Ouch.
23:12Got to stay where we are.
23:14Will he know it?
23:15The chaser was put...
23:16And looms up behind us one step there.
23:21Yeah, the creator, his name was Pinchbeck.
23:24He's an actual person.
23:25Ah, right.
23:26I'm one behind you now.
23:27Oh, now I can see.
23:29We can still get away.
23:30Here's the next question.
23:34London Theatre's most prestigious awards are named after which actor?
23:39Is it A, John Gielgud?
23:41Is it B, Laurence Olivier?
23:43Or is it C, Alec Guinness?
23:46You put...
23:48Laurence Olivier.
23:49Yep.
23:49Fairly confident on that one.
23:52Yep.
23:52Good.
23:53Correct answer is...
23:57Indeed, Laurence Olivier.
23:58The Olivier Awards brings you a step closer to home.
24:00And the chaser is put...
24:06Also, Laurence Olivier stays one step behind us.
24:09Right.
24:10Here's what I'm hoping is going to be your last question.
24:12Come on, Lesley, we can do it.
24:15The reign of terror took place during which period of
24:19unrest was it A, Spanish Civil War, B, the French Revolution, or C, American Civil War.
24:29You put...
24:32French Revolution.
24:33Yeah.
24:34Guess.
24:34I guess.
24:35Yeah.
24:35I did it at school, but didn't pay attention.
24:37Well...
24:37Wish I had now.
24:38Yeah, I know.
24:40Right, if it's right we're going through, if it's wrong,
24:41I have a feeling we're going to get caught and we're out of the game.
24:44To go through with five grand, Lesley.
24:49You'll have to wait, we'll find out after the break.
24:51Welcome back, Lesley here.
25:00Skin of our teeth, we're hanging on to the five grand.
25:02Here it is.
25:03Before the break, I asked her the question.
25:05The reign of terror took place during which period of unrest?
25:08Now, Lesley said that it was the French Revolution.
25:11If she's right, we're through.
25:13If she's wrong, I have a feeling we're going out.
25:16Come on, Lesley.
25:17Fingers crossed, girl.
25:18Begging you to go through.
25:19Gotta happen.
25:20Correct answer is...
25:25Yes, get in.
25:30Brilliant.
25:31Well done.
25:31Fantastic.
25:33Skin of our teeth there.
25:34Well played, Lesley.
25:35Thank you, Sean.
25:36You've only just made my mood worse.
25:38Lesley, well done, mate.
25:39Go and take your seat in the final chase.
25:41Very good.
25:41Good chase.
25:42Yeah, good chase.
25:43Really enjoyed that.
25:44Well, next to face the chaser, it's Toby.
25:47Or not Toby.
25:48That is the question.
25:52Welcome.
25:54Now, this is an odd thing you do.
25:55You're a football supporter, service advisor.
25:59That's correct.
25:59What's that?
26:00After you've bought a ticket, if you need to do anything,
26:03move your seat, bring extra people,
26:06anything that needs changing, then I'll do it.
26:08Oh right, and are you associated to one particular club?
26:11Yes, I work for Manchester City.
26:13Oh right, down at Eastlands.
26:15What a cracking ground that is.
26:16Yeah.
26:17Fantastic.
26:18So, if you want some money, what would you do with it?
26:20I've always got a cruise that needs paying for.
26:23We go on about two cruises a year.
26:25Do you?
26:25Yeah.
26:26I love cruising.
26:27We love cruising.
26:28I absolutely love it.
26:29What's the nicest place you've ever been to on a ship?
26:31Alaska.
26:32Really?
26:32Yeah.
26:33You see the glacier just there off the side of the ship.
26:36It's just amazing.
26:37Well, let's see if we can get you on another cruise, shall we, Toby?
26:39Good luck, mate.

27:52Nine grand.
27:53Very, very good indeed.
27:55All we've got to do is get it and you alongside Leslie, haven't we?
27:59Time, Toby, to bring on the chaser.
28:01Good afternoon, Toby.
28:15Good afternoon.
28:16That was an impressive performance.
28:18You cruise through those questions.
28:20Apart from the couple I got wrong.
28:22Now you're going to hit an iceberg.
28:23Very good.
28:25Let's put some money on the table, mate.
28:26There's your 9K.
28:27If you want to take a step closer to home, the chaser will offer you?
28:30A very respectable £2,000.
28:32However, if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you?
28:38You can cruise around the world for £30,000.
28:42Have a chat with Leslie, Toby.
28:44I wasn't expecting that.
28:46I wasn't expecting that either.
28:48I want you back here with me and I think, although £30,000 would be lovely, I can't face
28:54him again on my own.
28:56Okay, Toby, thank you, Leslie.
29:02What do you think?
29:05I'm not much of a gambling man, unfortunately, and I'm going to stick with the £9,000.
29:11Sure?
29:14I'm sure.
29:16Chaser?
29:16It's a shame because I think you've got a lot to offer.
29:18I think it would have been a good battle at £30,000.
29:21Toby, for £9,000, the chase is on.
29:26Good luck, mate.
29:32Here comes your first question.
29:36Which of these Prime Ministers gave his name to a style of black hat?
29:40Was it A, Anthony Eden, B, Edward Heath, or C, Stanley Baldwin?
29:50You put.
29:52Stanley Baldwin.
29:54Pretty confident?
29:55No.
29:56Guess?
29:56Totally.
29:57Correct answer is?
30:01Ouch!
30:01Wrong way.
30:02Staying where we are.
30:03The chaser is put.
30:07Yes, Anthony Eden.
30:09Can't you see him in that Homburg?
30:10Hang on a minute.
30:11Why is it called a Homburg?
30:11Why is it called a Homburg then, if his name's Anthony Eden?
30:13The Homburg, it was.
30:17See what's happened there?
30:18You're making it up as you're going along.
30:20I don't make things up.
30:21But it's a Homburg hat.
30:22It's not an Eden hat, is it?
30:23It's the correct answer though, and that's more important.
30:25There's your next question.
30:31Which flowering plant gets its name from the Latin word for sword because of its sword-shaped leaves?
30:37Is it A, Narcissus, B, Gladiolus, or C, Delphinium?
30:44You put, Gladiolus.
30:50Sure?
30:52Well, I was going with the fact that gladiators had a sword and maybe the gladiator was named after the sword.
30:59Yep.
31:00So therefore, gladiolus would make sense.
31:03Absolutely.
31:04Correct answer is?
31:06Oh, get in.
31:09Let's see what the chaser put.
31:14Yes, also gladiolus.
31:16He's a bright man.
31:17Brilliant.
31:18Here's your next question.
31:21Plutocracy is ruled by what type of people?
31:24A, the clergy, B, the wise, or C, the rich?
31:37You put, the wise.
31:41It's a total gas.
31:42Right.
31:43The correct answer is?
31:50The rich.
31:52Staying where we are.
31:54The chaser is put.
31:59The rich.
31:59Yeah, from Greek mythology, I think it's Plutus, which means wealth.
32:03Right.
32:04I'm one behind you now, and I'm not mucking about.
32:09Here's the next question.
32:10William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor, Coleridge, and which other poet made up the trio known
32:19as the lake poets?
32:20Was it A, Percy Shelley, B, Robert Southey, or C, Robert Browning?
32:26You put Robert Southey.
32:35I've got a horrible feeling.
32:36This is another guess, isn't it?
32:37This is another guess, slightly educated, because I was pretty sure it wasn't Percy Shelley.
32:41And Browning, for some reason I'm thinking London.
32:45Right.
32:47The correct answer is to stay in the game with 9k.
32:49Come on.
32:50The correct answer is to stay in the game with 9k.
32:55Brilliant.
32:55Well done.
32:57Well done, mate.
32:57Well done.
32:59Step closer to home.
33:00The chaser's put.
33:03Yeah, Robert Southey.
33:04He's right about Robert Browning, The London Connection, Wimpole Street.
33:08Thank you for that.
33:09Here's the next question.
33:12In the film Love Actually, which actor's character falls for his Portuguese maid?
33:18Is it A, Alan Rickman, B, Hugh Grant, or C, Colin Firth?
33:30You put Colin Firth.
33:34Ever seen the film?
33:36Sadly, I have.
33:38Have you?
33:39Is that true?
33:39Is that it?
33:40You're quite confident?
33:41No.
33:41Oh, really?
33:42Yep.
33:43I don't remember the story at all.
33:44Let's have a look, shall we?
33:46Correct answer is...
33:50Well done, old boy.
33:52Very good.
33:53Step closer to home.
33:55Let's see what the chaser put.
34:00Oh, he's got it wrong.
34:02Result.
34:04Have you not seen the film?
34:05I haven't, actually, no.
34:06No?
34:06All right.
34:07Well, there you go.
34:07If you haven't seen the film, it's just a wild guess, I guess.
34:10No, it wasn't a wild guess.
34:11It wasn't a wild guess?
34:12I knew those actors were in the film, but I just...
34:14You got it wrong.
34:15I took a pun to...
34:16Of course I got it wrong.
34:17So it was a guess?
34:20You're right.
34:20It was a guess.
34:22See what's happened there.
34:23See what's happened there.
34:24Here's the next question.
34:27Which London building features on the cover of Pink Floyd's album, Animals?
34:33Is it A, BT Tower, B, St Paul's Cathedral, or C, Battersea Power Station?
34:39You put...
34:43Battersea Power Station.
34:48I think that's right.
34:49Yeah?
34:50I can see it.
34:51The correct answer is...
34:53Oh, yeah, brilliant.
34:57One step from home with your 9k.
34:58It's fantastic.
34:59Let's see what the chaser put.
35:02Yes, Battersea Power Station.
35:03Yes, Parker.
35:04Well done.
35:05Here is your next question.
35:07One more and we're out.
35:07Come on, let's get this one right.
35:09Which American president had the middle name Burchard?
35:16Is it A, Chester Arthur, B, James Garfield, or C, Rutherford Hayes?
35:25You put...
35:28James Garfield.
35:30Guess.
35:31I've never even heard of any of them.
35:33That's sad, isn't it?
35:35Right, if this is right, we're through.
35:36Correct answer is...
35:39Come on.
35:42Oh, Rutherford Hayes.
35:44All right, we've got to stay where we are.
35:46The chaser is put.
35:50Yeah, Rutherford Hayes.
35:51He's one step behind us again.
35:54It's the same situation Leslie was in.
35:56Exactly the same, isn't it?
35:57Yeah.
35:58Come on, Toby.
35:59Yeah, exactly the same.
36:01Here's your next question.
36:02Which of these Wimbledon champions was born last?
36:09Or is it A, Pat Cash, B, Leighton Hewitt, or C, Pete Sampras?
36:16You've put Leighton Hewitt.
36:21I'm thinking Pat Cash is probably the oldest.
36:24Yeah.
36:24Then Pete Sampras, and then Leighton Hewitt.
36:27But sport, even though I work in sport, is not my subject.
36:31Well, come on.
36:33Good luck, mate.
36:36The correct answer is...
36:43Yes!
36:44Get in there.
36:45Come on.
36:51Put it there, mate.
36:51Thank you very much.
36:52Well done, Toby.
36:53Tremendous.
36:53Chaser.
36:54Well played, Toby.
36:55Look forward to seeing you in the final, Leslie.
36:57Thank you very much indeed, Toby.
36:59It's exhausting.
37:00Honestly, it's exhausting.
37:01Go and join Leslie.
37:02There you are.
37:03It's £14,000.
37:04Go and take your seat in the final chase there, mate.
37:07Well, unbelievable.
37:08Two exhausting chases.
37:10Hopefully, they'll be tired by the end of the final chase.
37:13Well, they must have taken something out of you, surely?
37:16Absolutely not.
37:17Mmm, well.
37:18Leslie and Toby have made it through to the final chase.
37:21The total prize fund of £14,000, 7K each.
37:24Are they going to take it home?
37:26Or will the Dark Destroyer bring them down to earth?
37:29Find out in a minute on the chase.
37:34So, welcome back to the chase.
37:36Leslie and Toby have made it through to the final chase.
37:39There is £14,000 in the prize fund.
37:41Now, on the buzzer and against the clock, they must answer as many questions as they can.
37:46Each right answer takes them a step further away from the chase.
37:48And then the chaser will have the same amount of time to try and catch Toby and Leslie.
37:53If he does, they leave with nothing.
37:54However, if he doesn't, Leslie and Toby will go home with £7,000 each.
38:01How about that?
38:02That would be lovely, wouldn't it?
38:03Wouldn't it?
38:03Yeah.
38:04What do you think your chances are?
38:05Fair to middling.
38:07Fair to middling.
38:08Good.
38:09Toby, Leslie, two of you are through.
38:11So, you get a two-step head start on the chaser.
38:13Right.
