00:00These four people have never met before, but by working as a team, they have the chance to win thousands of pounds.
00:06And there's just one thing standing in their way. The chaser. The chase is on.
00:20Hello and welcome to The Chase. Today'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.
00:28Well, do they? Let's meet them.
00:31I'm Chris. I'm 58. I'm a primary school principal and I'm from Tyrone.
00:36I'm Matt. I'm 18. I'm an A-level student and I'm from Cambridgeshire.
00:40I'm Jules. I'm 72. I'm a freelance feature writer and I'm from North Wales.
00:46I'm John. I'm 35. I'm a business development manager from Leeds.
00:50So that's the gang. Now, one by one, they will try and bring as much money as they can down the table and into the team prize fund.
00:57But, hunting them down every step of the way is the chaser.
01:01Anyone who gets caught, loses their money and is out of the game.
01:04Make it back safely, though, and they will go through to the final chase with a chance to an equal share of the total prize fund.
01:10First to face the chaser, it's Chris.
01:15Hi, Chris. Welcome.
01:17Well, thank you.
01:17Now, you're a primary school teacher in Tyrone.
01:21I'm actually a principal of a primary school.
01:22But you're not from Tyrone at all, are you?
01:24No, I'm from down the road in Derry. No. I'm originally from Seattle, Washington.
01:29Right. You should be good taking on chasers running after the little ones, is it?
01:32No problem.
01:33What subjects are you good at?
01:34I'm good at films. I'm good at geography. I'm good at American cities.
01:40But, what are things?
01:42Probably UK anything. History, geography, some geography, but not too great on it.
01:49Right. This is your first hurdle, Chris. I wish you luck.
01:52It's quick-fire questions against the clock. Each correct answer is worth £1,000.
01:56Your time starts now.

03:03You're not happy with that?
03:04No, I'm not.
03:05Could be more depending on the offers.
03:07It's time to face the chaser.
03:08But who will you be up against today?
03:09Will it be Mew Chaser?
03:11Paul Sinner.
03:12Untried, untested and totally unforgiving.
03:16Or would it be the beast?
03:17Mark Lebet.
03:18A bear of a man who wants to give you a grisly end.
03:22Or Frosty Knickers herself?
03:23Anne Hegarty.
03:24Page 3 girl for a Stephen King novel.
03:26Or would it be top barrister?
03:28Sean Wallace.
03:29So wise and so bold.
03:31I can't believe it's not butter.
03:34See?
03:34Butter.
03:34Butter.
03:35No?
03:36Okay, fair enough.
03:36All right.
03:37Who do you fancy taking on?
03:39I figure if Sean came out, you have two bald and beautiful on there.
03:42Two principles, because Mrs. Trunchbull will be here.
03:44Yeah.
03:44And I think if you poke the beast, he could rile him pretty good.
03:48Yeah?
03:48And the new guy, who knows?
03:50I'm ready for them all.
03:51That's what I love to hear, Chris.
03:52Because it's time to bring on the chaser.
03:55Oh, it's the mastermind champ.
04:02It's barrister.
04:03It's the top man.
04:05It sure was.
04:07Good afternoon, Chris.
04:09Hello, Sean.
04:10The only thing we've got in common is that we've got both a sense of style so far as a lack of hairstyle.
04:15Well, I thought we were both bald and beautiful.
04:17I'm just beautiful.
04:18Let's put some money on the table.
04:20£3,000.
04:21As always, three steps ahead of the chaser.
04:24If you wish to take a step closer to home, the chaser will offer you, Chris.
04:27£1,000.
04:28But if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you...
04:32£12,000.
04:34All righty.
04:35Have a chat with your team, please, Chris.
04:37Well, gang, what do you think?
04:39I think you're better off being safe back here to take on the challenge at the end.
04:44I think you've made me stick.
04:46Make sure you get back here first.
04:47Sean, you have a lot of knowledge.
04:49Don't let them intimidate you.
04:51Do what you think.
04:52Did you just call him Sean?
04:55Yes, I...
04:56Yeah, you called Chris.
04:56Chris, I'm so sorry.
04:58Well, I tell you what, to be fair though, Jules, they do look alike.
05:00They do.
05:01They're very similar.
05:02They do look alike.
05:02Very similar.
05:03It's a head.
05:04All right, okay.
05:05So, what'll it be?
05:06I think I'm going to go stay at three.
05:08You're going to stay at three?
05:09I'm going to stay at three and try to get that money back for the end game.
05:13Okay, that's fine.
05:14£3,000 it is.
05:15Thank you very much.
05:16Chaser.
05:17Probably a wise idea, but I'm still going to catch you, Chris.
05:20And by the way, Jules, I made a mental note.
05:22You did.
05:23Let's bring some money home, Chris.
05:26Good luck, mate.
05:26You will answer the same questions at the same time as the chaser.
05:29If you're right, of course, you will take a step closer to home.
05:32However, if you're wrong, you will stay where you are, giving the chaser the chance to close
05:35the gap.
05:35If you get caught, you know the rules.
05:37You are gone, and so is the money.
05:39For £3,000, the chase is on.
05:47Good luck, Chris.
05:47Here comes your first question.
05:49What is the minimum legal age to drive a mowing machine?
05:56Is it A, 16, B, 17, or C, 18?
06:02You put.
06:0416.
06:0516.
06:06Do you know what?
06:06I didn't even know you needed a license to drive a mowing machine.
06:08Well, I didn't either, so I'm just figuring it must be the lowest one.
06:11Correct answer is.
06:1416 it is.
06:15It's a great start.
06:16Brilliant.
06:16Step closer to home.
06:17Let's see what the chaser put.
06:20Also, 16.
06:21Immediately, it comes onto the table.
06:23What's that all about?
06:23Well, if I'd have got that wrong, it's a barrister.
06:26Right.
06:27Here's your next question.
06:30Where is the source of the Mekong River?
06:33Is it A, Bhutan, B, China, C, Nepal?
06:39You put.
06:41China.
06:42Happy with that?
06:42Happy enough, yeah.
06:43I figure it's that or Nepal.
06:46Correct answer is.
06:47Yeah, we're rocking and rolling.
06:51Let's see what the chaser put.
06:54Oh, and gets it wrong.
06:56It's the actual longest river in Asia.
06:58That's got nothing to do with it.
06:59You got it wrong.
07:00It might be the longest river, but it kicked off in the wrong place as far as you're concerned.
07:04You should have taken the higher offer, then shouldn't you?
07:06All of a sudden, he's trying to intimidate you because he's got one wrong.
07:09Here's your next question.
07:10Which children's TV show is 30 years old in 2011?
07:17Is it A, Bob the Builder, B, Fireman Sam, or C, Postman Pat?
07:22You put.
07:26Postman Pat.
07:27Good question for a school principal.
07:28What do you think?
07:29I don't have a clue.
07:30Really?
07:31Well, I don't watch those shows.
07:32You know, those are all from the UK, so.
07:35Right, let's have a look.
07:36Correct answer is.
07:37Yes, well played.
07:42The chaser has put.
07:46Fireman Sam and get another one wrong.
07:48Was Fireman Sam up the Mekong River?
07:51Let's move on to the next question, Bradley.
07:52No, let's not.
07:54Did you get out of bed the wrong side this morning?
07:56Absolutely not.
07:57Are you sure?
07:58Are we intimidating you somewhat?
08:00Oh, please, Bradley.
08:01Do I look that type of intimidated?
08:04We've got him on the rack, Chrissy boy.
08:06Yeah, I think you're right, Brad.
08:08Let's go.
08:09Here's your next question.
08:13Martin Scorsese's film documentary, Shine a Light,
08:16is a profile of which rock band?
08:18Is it A, Aerosmith, B, Rolling Stones, or C, U2?
08:26You put.
08:28Aerosmith.
08:30Any ideas?
08:31Could be any of the three, really.
08:33Right.
08:34Correct answer is.
08:36To Rolling Stones, staying where we are.
08:39Plenty of daylight, though, between us and the chaser.
08:42The chaser has put.
08:46Rolling Stones.
08:47I knew that one, Bradley.
08:48I think it was around 2007 or 2008, I think.
08:52Around that time.
08:53Right.
08:53Here's your next question.
08:54Only two from home.
08:55Who is the only British player to have been voted European Footballer of the Year twice?
09:03Was it A, Kevin Keegan, B, Bobby Charlton, or C, George Best?
09:07You have put.
09:12Kevin Keegan.
09:13I wish it was George Best, Belfast boy.
09:17Sure.
09:18Could be Bobby Charlton, Kevin Keegan.
09:20The correct answer is.
09:22Fingers crossed.
09:25Yes, absolutely right.
09:27Kevin Keegan.
09:28Just a shame he didn't have a bit of conviction to go for the 12th.
09:30Nonetheless.
09:31That's the way it goes.
09:32Indeed it is.
09:33The chaser has put.
09:34Yeah, big football fan.
09:38Yeah, he won it in 78 and 79.
09:41George Best won it in 68.
09:42Bobby Charlton won it in World Cup here.
09:44There you are.
09:45Right.
09:45One more and we're through.
09:46Here's your next question.
09:49In Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream,
09:52Puck transforms Bottoms' head into that of which animal?
09:57Is it A, a stag, a bee, an ass, or C, a dog?
10:01You have put an ass.
10:07You happy with that?
10:08I think that's what it is, but...
10:09So do I.
10:10Correct answer is to go through with three grand.
10:15Come on.
10:16Yes, freedom.
10:19Chris?
10:23Chaser?
10:23Played very well, Chris.
10:24You should have taken the gamble, really.
10:26After only getting three right, my confidence was down.
10:30Chris, congratulations, take your place in the final chase.
10:32There you go.
10:33Brilliant stuff.
10:34Mmm, very good.
10:35Yeah, played well.
10:36Yeah, which just goes to show sometimes the cash builder bears no resemblance whatsoever on the actual chase.
10:41It doesn't, and sometimes I say contestants really should have the courage and their convictions to take the gamble if they feel I'm off form.
10:47Well, is he off form?
10:49We'll find out after the break, because next up, it's young Matt.
10:52Welcome back, Chris, through to the final chase.
10:58Next to face the chaser, it's Matt.
11:00Well, Chris did great, didn't he?
11:01Did fantastically.
11:02Now, you're an A-level student.
11:03Yes, right, yeah.
11:04From?
11:05Cambridgeshire.
11:05And what are you studying?
11:06I'm studying history, philosophy and ethics, and English language and literature.
11:10And are you at Cambridge University?
11:12I got an interview for Cambridge University, but I'm now hoping to get a place at Exeter to study history.
11:17Very good.
11:18Well, I wish you luck.
11:19Quickfire questions against the clock.
11:21Yeah.

12:22In Einstein's equation, E equals MC squared, C represents the speed of...
12:25Light.
12:26Yes, it would have been light, but we were out of time.
12:29History, did you say?
12:32I'm specialising in Russian history.
12:34Okay, fair enough.
12:35Nonetheless, Matt, same as Chris, £3,000.
12:37It could be more, depending on the offers.
12:40It's time to face the chaser.
12:54Good afternoon, Matt.
12:55Afternoon, Sean.
12:56I was a bit surprised about you dropping that history question.
12:59Shot myself in the foot there, really.
13:00Anyway, let's put some money on the table, guys.
13:02There's your £3,000, Matt.
13:03Take a step closer to home.
13:05The chaser will offer you.
13:06£1,000.
13:07Ouch.
13:08However, if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you...
13:11£17,000, Matt.
13:13Very nice.
13:15Have a chat with your team.
13:17So, what do you think, guys?
13:18Matt, I want you back here, because you've got knowledge that I know I don't have.
13:22So, for the final, I'd like to see you here.
13:24Matt, the more heads, the better.
13:26I know, Sean, it's having a ropey day, Matt, but I'd play safe and go for £3,000.
13:30Thank you, team.
13:31Okay, the chaser's having a ropey day.
13:34What will it be?
13:35I think I'm going to practice what I preach and stick with my £3,000, please.
13:39No, very good.
13:40I think that's pretty wise thus far.
13:42Chaser.
13:43He's quite a wise young man, actually.
13:45I'm going to have to take him down.
13:47We'll see, eh?
13:47For £3,000, the chase is on.
13:56Good luck.
13:57Here comes your first question.
14:01Which of these airlines is European?
14:04Is it A, Garuda, B, Malev, or C, Beeman?
14:10You put...
14:12Garuda.
14:13It sounds kind of Eastern European.
14:15Hungarian?
14:16Yeah, something like that.
14:16And Malev and Beeman both sound Asian.
14:19And that's just my way of thinking.
14:21Correct answer is...
14:24Malev.
14:25All right, you've got to stay where you are.
14:28He may get this wrong.
14:29He may not know this.
14:30The chaser has put.
14:34That gets it right and comes onto the table.
14:37Malev actually is Hungarian Airlines.
14:39And the Garuda is the mythical bird and it's the national airline of Indonesia.
14:43Thank you for that.
14:44Well, don't worry.
14:46It's not over yet.
14:47Here's your next question.
14:49Oscar Niemeyer is a famous name in what field?
14:53A, music.
14:54B, fashion.
14:55C, architecture.
15:02You were leaving it right up to the wire there, weren't you?
15:05So you've put architecture.
15:08Happy with that?
15:09It was a toss-up between that or music.
15:12Correct answer is...
15:15Oh, well played.
15:18Oh, look at his face.
15:19He's so happy to get that first one.
15:21First one.
15:22The chaser has put...
15:25Yes, also architecture.
15:28He was the famous Brazilian architect who laid out the plans for Brasilia.
15:32Ah, thank you for that.
15:34Right, here's your next question.
15:37The African country of Ghana was formerly known by which name?
15:42Was it A, Diamond Coast?
15:44B, the Gold Coast?
15:45Or C, the Ivory Coast?
15:49You have put...
15:51Diamond Coast.
15:53The Ivory Coast is obviously another country in Africa.
15:55And the Gold Coast is an area of Australian coast.
15:59Correct answer is...
16:01Karma.
16:02All right.
16:05Got to stay where you are.
16:06The chaser has put.
16:10Jan gets it.
16:11And now is one step behind.
16:14Mix up there, Diamond, Gold Coast.
16:15What happened there?
16:16Well, there is a Gold Coast in Australia.
16:18It's quite right.
16:19But the Gold Coast up until 1957 was the old British colonial territory.
16:24And by the way, Matt, I'm one behind you now.
16:27We can do it, though.
16:28Here's your next question.
16:29Come on, Matt.
16:30Right with you, mate.
16:30All the way.
16:31Prince Charles and Prince Andrew both divorced their respective wives in which year?
16:40Was it A, 1992, B, 1994, or C, 1996?
16:49You've put.
16:511992.
16:52I think Diana died in the game with three grand.
17:05The correct answer is...
17:071996.
17:08Four years later.
17:12It's over now, I think.
17:17He may have got it wrong.
17:20The chaser has put.
17:221996.
17:24And wipes us out.
17:27You played very well, Matt.
17:39You played very well, Matt.
17:40You're one of the most calmest contestants I've come across.
17:40And it's been a great experience, really.
17:41And it's been a pleasure playing you, but I do take even greater pleasure dispatching you.
17:44So, goodbye.
17:45You have been caught in a few.
17:46The chase is over.
17:47Those infamous words.
17:48Yes, those infamous words.
17:49Yes, those infamous words.
17:50Wish you luck in your studies.
17:54One through, one down.
17:56Next to face the chaser is Jules.
17:59Welcome.
18:01Oh, you've been sitting there.
18:02You've not been looking forward to this all of a sudden, have you?
18:03No, I haven't.
18:04It's Sean, you know.
18:05Yeah, yeah.
18:06He's been good today, hasn't he?
18:07Yes, he's on form.
18:08Well, he is.
18:09A couple of questions he faltered with Chris, and all of a sudden he's started to get into
18:10his stride.
18:11Yeah, that's what I'm worried about.
18:12Well, listen, I do wish you luck.
18:13I really do.
18:14Quickfire questions against the clock.
18:15Your time starts now.

19:34Get ready though.
19:35It's time to face the chaser.
19:36Good afternoon, Sean.
19:37Good afternoon, Jules.
19:38Good afternoon, Sean.
19:39Good afternoon, Jules.
19:40She's had to put her glasses on, you see.
19:41You're even closer now.
19:42I want to see you more.
19:43Good.
19:44I'll be right up and close and personal.

19:46Let's put some money on the table, Jules.
19:47Brilliant.
19:48£5,000.
19:49£5,000.
19:50Good.
19:51£5,000.
19:52Good.
19:53If you want to take a step closer to our home, though, the chaser will offer you...
19:54£500.
19:55Ouch.
19:56That's a bit mean.
19:57It is.
19:58But if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you...
19:59£20,000, Jules.
20:00£20,000.
20:01Do you mind if I ask the team?
20:02Not at all.
20:03You carry on.
20:05What do you think, guys?
20:06I'd play it so I can get back here and go for the five.
20:07Chris?
20:08Depends how you're feeling, Jules.
20:09I mean, you got the most so far.
20:10It'd be great to have it here.
20:11£20,000 is a lot.
20:12Just how you're feeling.
20:13Absolutely.
20:15Thank you, boys.
20:16Right.
20:17Now then, what will it be?
20:18What will it be?
20:19Well, the chaser will offer you...
20:20No, the chaser will offer you...
20:21£500.
20:22Ouch.
20:23That's a bit mean.
20:24It is.
20:25But if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you...
20:27£20,000, Jules.
20:28£20,000.
20:29Do you mind if I ask the team?
20:30Absolutely.
20:31Thank you, boys.
20:32Right.
20:33Now then, what will it be?
20:34Well, I'm not greedy.
20:36I want to get back, so I'll stick with five if you don't mind.
20:39Not at all.
20:40Five it is.
20:41Chaser.
20:42That's understandable, Jules, but as I say, I'm hitting my stride now.
20:44I know you are.
20:45That's worrying.
20:46For £5,000, Jules, the chase is on.
20:54Good luck, darling.
20:55Here comes your first question.
20:57Savrola is the only novel written by which Prime Minister?
21:04A, David Lloyd George, B, Stanley Baldwin, or C, Winston Churchill.
21:11You have put...
21:13Winston Churchill.
21:14You know, you're shaking your head you weren't happy with that.
21:16Why is that?
21:17I just don't think it's right now.
21:19No?
21:20No.
21:21Who do you think it is?
21:22I think it could have been David Lloyd George.
21:23Right.
21:24But we'll see.
21:25The answer is...
21:28Very good.
21:29Was that your gut feeling?
21:30Yes.
21:31Always go with your gut feeling.
21:32That's what the chasers will tell you.
21:33You step closer to home.
21:34The chasers put...
21:37Yes, and he knows his stuff and immediately comes onto the table.
21:40We all know that he was a Nobel laureate in 1953 for literature.
21:44Thank you for that.
21:45Right.
21:46Here's your next question.
21:47A mountain is the logo of which film studio?
21:52Is it A, Columbia, B, United Artists, or C, Paramount?
21:58You've put...
22:00Paramount.
22:01Happy with that?
22:02Thinking it should have been Columbia, but there we are.
22:04I'm not sure.
22:05You think it's something else again?
22:06Yeah.
22:07My head is not joined up to my heart at the moment.
22:11Correct answer is...
22:15Very good.
22:16Gut feeling.
22:17You've got to go with that.
22:18Free from home.
22:19The chase has put...
22:21Yes, of course.
22:22Paramount.
22:23Well, getting does favour the brave and you do quite well.
22:27Here's your next question, Jules.
22:30Which musical was co-written by Ben Elton?
22:33A, We Will Rock You.
22:35B, Spamalot.
22:36C, Billy Elliot.
22:39You've put...
22:41Billy Elliot.
22:42No, I'm not sure.
22:43You're not sure of this one?
22:44No, not at all.
22:45Okay, let's have a look.
22:46Correct answer is...
22:49It's We Will Rock You.
22:50You've got to stay where you are.
22:51Now then, the chaser has put...
22:56Yes, and gets it right, comes a step closer.
22:59We'll move straight on to the next question.
23:04Which star has won the most golden raspberry awards for worst actor?
23:09A, Sylvester Stallone.
23:11B, Steven Seagal.
23:13Or C, Arnold Schwarzenegger.
23:17You put...
23:19Steven Seagal.
23:20Do you like him as an actor?
23:21No, I think he's dreadful, but there we are.
23:23What do you think of Sylvester Stallone as an actor?
23:25I like him.
23:26And Schwarzenegger?
23:27Oh, you can't beat a Terminator, can you?
23:29No, you can't.
23:30Correct answer is...
23:34Stallone gets it.
23:35You've got to stay where you are.
23:37Correct answer was Stallone.
23:38The chaser has put...
23:39Yes, and also went with Steven Seagal, so stays there two steps behind us.
23:46He's also a... works as a bounty hunter part-time, doesn't he?
23:49Steven Seagal.
23:50Yeah, it's really peculiar.
23:51What a peculiar lifestyle.
23:52He's got a sort of a reality show about that as well.
23:54Yeah.
23:55Here's your next question.
23:57Alphabetically, which month comes fifth?
24:01Fifth.
24:02Fifth.
24:03Is it A, January, B, June, or C, July?
24:07Yeah.
24:13How tough is that?
24:14You've put...
24:16June.
24:17January, February, March, April.
24:19They don't do it.
24:20It's not making sense to me.
24:21Alphabetically, which month comes fifth?
24:24April would have been first, wouldn't it?
24:26Yeah.
24:27Oh, all right.
24:28Correct answer is...
24:31January.
24:32J-A.
24:33Staying where you are.
24:34Has he got it?
24:35He's got it.
24:36No.
24:37The chase has put.
24:40January has and closes one step behind you.
24:42That's a tough little question, though.
24:43That was a stinker.
24:44Wasn't it?
24:45Yes.
24:46So bad, it's put me one behind you now.
24:48Yes, I know.
24:49Don't worry, Jules.
24:50With three from home, come on, we can do it.
24:53In the NBA, how long is a basketball match scheduled to last?
24:58Is it A, 36 minutes, B, 48 minutes, or C, 60 minutes?
25:03You have put...
25:04B.
25:0548 minutes.
25:06Now, what do you know about basketball?
25:07Nothing.
25:08It's just a guess.
25:09If that's right, you're still in the game with £5,000.
25:10If it's wrong, we're in danger of going out.
25:11Is it 48 minutes, Jules?
25:12We'll find out after the break.
25:13Well, freelance journalist Jules here from North Wales, hanging on by a thread with her £5,000.
25:17Before the break, I asked her, in the NBA, how long is a basketball match scheduled to last?
25:23Now, Jules said 48 minutes.
25:24If she's right, we're still in the game.
25:25If she's wrong, well, it's a bit dicey, giving the chase of the chance to wipe us out.
25:28The correct answer is...
25:29Come on.
25:30Brilliant.
25:31Well played.
25:32Step closer to home.

25:41Yeah,Allah, what?
25:42mate, you did a bit of 90 minutes, you said, it said, is, is long.
25:46Well, it's a bit dicey, giving the chase the chance to wipe us out.
25:48The correct answer is...
25:49Come on.
25:50Brilliant.
25:51Well played.
25:52Step closer to home.
25:53Let's see what the chase of put.
25:55Oh, it gets him wrong!
25:56What on earth did you think it was 60 minutes?
26:00Just did.
26:01Well, you were wrong.
26:02That's good for us.
26:04Bad for you.
26:05Great for us.
26:06Here we go.
26:07Here's your next question.
26:09...
26:11is Ely. A. Cambridgeshire. B. Suffolk. C. Norfolk. You've put. Cambridgeshire. Happy with that?
26:23Geography is not a strong point. Well, we shall see. Correct answer is.
26:29Brilliant. One from home with your five grand. That's great. The Chaser has put.
26:33Cambridgeshire. Herowood the Wake country. Who, sorry? Herowood? Herowood the Wake.
26:41He opposed William the Conqueror after the Norman Conquest and he held out his stronghold in Ely.
26:47Ah, very good. We just need you to get this question correct, all right? Here's your next question.
26:54The fourth hitchhiker book in Douglas Adams' series is called So Long and Thanks for All the...
27:01What? A. Cheese. B. Ham. C. Fish.

27:12No, I don't know it.
27:14Yeah, So Long and Thanks for All the Cheese. So Long and Thanks for All the Ham. So Long and Thanks for All the Fish.
27:18Sounds more rolly off the tongue with the word fish. I don't know this.
27:21The correct answer is, rhythmically, does it work?
27:27Fish.
27:27You're right.
27:28All right. Staying where you are. Has he got it right? The Chaser has put.
27:34Yes, he knew it. And now is one step behind.
27:38Got to get this one right now, Jules.
27:40I do hope so.
27:41Here's your next question.
27:42Thomas Stonewall Jackson was accidentally killed by his own Confederate troops at which U.S. Civil War battle?
27:52A. Chancellorsville, B. Gettysburg, or C. Fredericksburg?
27:58You've put?
28:01Gettysburg, B.
28:02You have put Gettysburg, indeed. Are you sure about this?
28:04No, not at all.
28:06To get home with five grand, the correct answer is...
28:09Come on, Jules.
28:13Oh.
28:15Chancellorsville, we've got to stay where we are.
28:17Now, we've done so well getting this far.
28:19Yeah.
28:20The Chaser has put.
28:24Yes, Chancellorsville, indeed.
28:27Wipes us out.
28:28Chaser.
28:29I thought you was going to get away, but I was so glad when that question came up.
28:32You know, you played very well.
28:34Very nice meeting you.
28:35Jules, I'm sorry you have been caught, and for you, the chase is over.
28:40Bye-bye.
28:40Bye-bye.
28:40Bye-bye.
28:40Good chase.
28:44Yeah, very good chase, actually.
28:45I'm hitting for him now, and I'm looking forward to the most dangerous contestant of the lot.
28:49You think he's dangerous?
28:50Yes, I do.
28:51Dangerous John.
28:52Hmm.
28:53Well, he's up next.
28:58Welcome, John.
28:59Now, do you have any hobbies?
29:01Yeah.
29:01Kickboxing, jiu-jitsu, a little bit of mixed martial arts, enjoy travelling.
29:05What about quizzing?
29:07Perhaps when I'm drunk at people's houses, true of pursuit might come out, but...
29:11Right.
29:12Let's see if we can add to that three grand.
29:14Are you ready?

30:25Right.
30:25Let's see if we can get the nine grand and you back to the final chase alongside Chris.
30:29Okay.
30:30It's time to face the chaser.
30:31Good afternoon, John.
30:44Hello, Sean.
30:45Just as I thought, the danger man.
30:47Very good, wasn't it?
30:48Very good.
30:48Let's put the money on the table straight away.
30:50Nine grand.

30:56Rubbish.
30:57If you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you...
31:0027,000 pounds.
31:03Have some of that.
31:04Have a chat with Chris.

31:20Well done.
31:20Chris, happy with that?
31:21Yeah, I'm happy with that.
31:22Sure.
31:22Chaser.
31:23It's disappointing because, as I say, you are the danger and this is going to be a really exciting and good chase.
31:28Are you ready?
31:28I am.
31:29For 9,000 pounds, the chase is on.
31:37Good luck, mate.
31:38Here comes the first question.
31:41What was the last series of the BBC's film review programme that Barry Norman presented?
31:47Was it A, Film 94, B, Film 96 or C, Film 98?
31:53You put?
31:56Film 96.
31:59I know he left the BBC to go over to Sky, but I don't think it was as late as 98.
32:05Which you'll see.
32:06Correct answer is.
32:09Okay, Film 98.
32:10It was.
32:11You've got to stay where you are.
32:12The chaser has put.
32:13Oh, Film 98 comes immediately onto the table.
32:18Right, next question.
32:19Let's rock and roll.
32:20Here it is.
32:21In the rhyme, Solomon Grunde, on which day did he marry?
32:26Was it A, Tuesday, B, Wednesday, C, Thursday?
32:32You put?
32:33Thursday.
32:35This is a pure guess.
32:37I was hoping that Sunday or Monday might come up because it rhymes.
32:41Right, okay.
32:42Correct answer is.
32:46Unlucky.
32:46Wednesday it was.
32:47Once again, got to stay where we are.
32:48The chaser has put.
32:49Oh, dear.
32:54Yes, gets it right.
32:55So comes that step in.
32:56Luckily, we didn't go for the 27.
32:58Good job, I didn't take the 27.
32:59Good job.
33:00Chaser.
33:00It's Solomon Grunde, born on a Monday, christened on a Tuesday, married on a Wednesday,
33:06took ill on a Thursday, worse on a Friday, died on a Saturday, buried on a Sunday,
33:11and that's the end of?
33:12Solomon Grunde.
33:14Right, our next question has to be right, otherwise we're in danger of going out.
33:18Here's your next question.
33:19Which American boxer was the first professional to beat Muhammad Ali?
33:27Was it A, George Foreman, B, Joe Frazier, C, Sonny Liston?
33:33You put Joe Frazier.
33:37Ali and Frazier had three fights, and I think Frazier won one and Ali won two,
33:42so that would be my logic behind it.
33:44Correct answer is.
33:45Brilliant.
33:48Yeah, they were both undefeated until they fought in Madison Square Garden, as I think
33:52the chaser has put.
33:55Yes, of course, he knows he's boxing as well, and he's still one step behind.
34:00The fight actually took place on the 8th of March, 1971.
34:04Wow.
34:04Here's your next question.
34:07Which of these films is about a bank robbery?
34:10A, Bird on a Wire.
34:12B, Dog Day Afternoon.

34:17You put.
34:19B, Dog Day Afternoon.
34:20You seen it?
34:21A long time ago, I think.
34:22I think he's got Al Pacino in it.
34:24Fingers crossed.
34:25Correct answer is.
34:28Brilliant.
34:29Well played.
34:30Step closer to home.
34:31The chaser has put.
34:32Also, Dog Day Afternoon, following us all the way down the table.
34:38He's right about Al Pacino.
34:39Never seen it.
34:40Never seen it.
34:41Good film.
34:41Very good for us, though.
34:42Well played, mate.
34:43These are the questions we want.
34:44Here's the next question.
34:47In what part of Australia is Ayers Rock?
34:50A, Northern Territory.
34:52B, Queensland.
34:54Or C, South Australia.
34:57You put.
34:59Northern Territory.
35:00I've been to Ayers Rock or Uluru, as it is now, and I'm pretty sure it was in the Northern Territory.
35:06All right.
35:07Correct answer is.
35:11Well played.
35:12Oh, that's great when you know them, isn't it?
35:13Yeah.
35:14Two from home.
35:15Correct answer is Northern Territory.
35:16Well done.
35:17The chaser has put.
35:21Knows his stuff and remains there.
35:23Here's your next question.
35:24Two to go.
35:24Come on, John.
35:25We're doing great.
35:26Which African animal is also called the syricate?
35:32Is it A, the aardvark?
35:34B, lemur?
35:35C, meerkat?
35:38You put.
35:41Meerkat.
35:42Lemurs are from South America and Indonesia, and that part of the world.
35:47And I think aardvarks are North American.
35:48Let's find out.
35:50The correct answer is.
35:55Yes.
35:56Get in.
35:56One from home.
35:57Brilliant.
35:58The chaser's put.
36:02Yes, meerkat.
36:03Remains that one step behind.
36:05Syricate.
36:05I don't know the reason why, but that's something which I learned a couple of days ago.
36:09That's what the thing is with these chasers.
36:11Always swatting up.
36:12Always.
36:13Right.
36:13You've done really, really well.
36:14One more.
36:15Here's your next question.
36:16Cooking with turmeric turns food what colour?
36:23A, red.
36:24B, yellow.
36:26C, green.
36:29You put.
36:31Red.
36:32Do you know much about cooking?
36:33I can't imagine you would want to turn food green.
36:38And I'm trying to think of the spices on the spice rack.
36:40And I don't think we've got any yellow spices.
36:43So therefore, I'm left with red.
36:44Well, if red's right, we've got 9,000 pounds, and we're through to the final chase.
36:49The correct answer is...
36:52Be right.
36:53Be right.
36:58Ouch.
36:59Stay where we are.
36:59He needs to be very, very, very wrong.
37:01Correct answer is yellow.
37:03Does he know much about food and drink?
37:05The chaser is into his spices.
37:08The chaser has put.
37:15Oh, mate.
37:18Oh.
37:19Of course I know my cooking, Bradley.
37:21Everybody knows that turmeric is yellow.
37:24Really?
37:24It's an Indian spice.
37:26Except for us.
37:26We didn't...
37:27I didn't know either.
37:28Oh, well.
37:29John, I'm sorry.
37:30You have been caught.
37:31And for you, the chase is over.
37:36Three down, one through.
37:38Chris goes through to the final chase with a total prize fund of 3,000 pounds.
37:43Can he take down the dark destroyer that is the barrister, Sean Wallace?
37:47Come back and find out after the break.
37:51Welcome back.
37:52Now, Chris has made it through to the final chase.
37:55There he is on his own.
37:57There's three grand in the total prize fund.
37:59Now, against the clock, Chris must answer as many questions as he can.
38:03Each correct answer puts him a step further away from the chaser.
38:06Then the chaser has the same amount of time to try and catch Chris.
38:09If he does, Chris goes home with nothing.
38:11If he doesn't, Chris leaves with 3,000 pounds.
38:14Chris, only you have made it through to the final chase,
38:16so you get an automatic one-step head start on our chaser.
38:20I wish you luck.

40:36It's time to bring back the chaser.
40:50Now, chaser, you've always said never take anything for granted.
40:52And I don't, and that was a very commendable and respectable performance.
40:56Yeah.
40:56I never take anything for granted.
40:57Remember, if the chaser gets one wrong and Chris gets it right, he pushes the chaser back
41:01one step, and that could be, indeed, the difference.

43:48Despite the heavy competition I had today, it is still just another day at the office.
43:54Only one man in the final chase against a chaser.
