00:00Hello, and welcome to Beat the Chasers.
00:27And here they are.
00:30The Menace, The Governors, The Cinnamon, The Vixen, The Beast, and The Dark Destroyer.
00:50And there they are, six reasons I keep my address private.
00:54Let me ask you this, when they make Beat the Chasers the movie, who will play you, governess?
01:02I'm holding out for Margot Robbie.
01:04She's going to have to scrub up a bit, but I think she's got the basics.
01:08Yes, thank you. Vixen?
01:10I think the key thing for a Beat the Chasers movie would be who would play Bradley Walsh.
01:16Yes.
01:17I'd say Tom Cruise, but he's a little bit tall and he does his own stunts.
01:24And then we know you don't even dress yourself.
01:26No.
01:28Menace?
01:29I think we should get Tom Cruise in to host this show and save ITV a packet.
01:34.
01:36Cinnamon.
01:37To play you in the movie, obviously, Daniel Craig.
01:41Sorry, no, Wendy Craig.
01:43.
01:48Okay, well there you have it. Alright, tonight we have contestants from across the country who think they can beat the Chasers.
01:55Can they? Let's get cracking. Please join me. It's Brendan from London. Where are you Brendan?
02:04Alright Brendan, provide a challenge mate.
02:11Nice shoes. Alright Brendan, cool.
02:18Cool shoes. It's their first outing. It's their first outing? Yeah, I bought them for a holiday, they didn't turn up in time, so you get the first job.
02:27Absolutely, they're really snazzy mate. Alright, what do you do for a living? Solution Architect, so I design...
02:33Sushi Architect? Solution Architect. Oh, Solution? Yes.
02:37Sushi Architect, wow, okay. Alright, okay, so Solutions Architect, what is that? Logistics and stuff?
02:43So, I design software, healthcare software at the moment. Right.
02:46It's mainly just drawing boxes with lines in between. Okay, fair enough.
02:49And what do you do, hobbies, anything? What do you get up to?
02:52I like to go hiking, out in nature, things like that.
02:55Okay, are you a naturist yourself?
03:00I don't know how to ask that, Brad.
03:02Not in those shoes, you mean?
03:06Just aimly walking around naked, apart from the new shoes.
03:10No-one's looking at anything going, those shoes are cracking, by the way.
03:13At least I distract them. Yeah.
03:16If you're to win some money, what do you want to do with it?
03:18I want a camera fan.
03:19I want one for ages, because I can work from home, so I can work from the van, go off to Europe.
03:24Great, don't blame me. I'll wish you luck with that.
03:26Alright, now you're going to need money for that, of course.
03:29I'm going to ask you five multiple-choice questions.
03:32Each correct answer is worth £1,000. Get the first one wrong, you are out.
03:35Okay. Alright, I'll wish you luck. Here we go. Let's play!
03:38Come on!
03:43Good luck, when it comes to first question.
03:46In the UK and Australia, which of these is used as a slang term for a drink, especially beer?
03:53A. Sherbet. B. Licorice. C. Toffee.
03:59This is what I was worried about. Really?
04:03I honestly have no idea.
04:10Um...
04:12Oh, my God. I'm going to go out on the first question.
04:18We'll go for...
04:21Oh, my gosh.
04:22We'll go for...
04:26C. Toffee.
04:27OK, you're going for toffee.
04:32Is that the right answer?
04:36No.
04:37Correct answer is...
04:38And I've heard this term lots, actually.
04:41Yeah, sherbet. Vixen.
04:42That is very unfortunate.
04:44A term of slang of that just hasn't come into your orbit.
04:46Yeah.
04:47And you are absolutely clueless on that, because there's not really any hint up there, is there?
04:51But, yeah, going for a couple of sherbets tonight, are we?
04:53Oh, I've heard it loads and loads of times, and I'm from the same area as you, but what's interesting is I find it quite an archaic term.
04:59I find it a term of men my age, you know what I mean? And I'm only in my 40s, so, you know, I've heard it, so I'm sorry.
05:07That's the way it goes.
05:08Brendan, thank you so much.
05:10Thank you so much.
05:11Yeah, thank you.
05:12You have been beaten by the chasers already.
05:17That's definitely unlucky.
05:21That is tough.
05:24That is not a good start.
05:26However, we'll crack straight on.
05:28Next up to try and beat the chasers, it's Deborah from Gosport.
05:40Welcome to the show, Deborah from Gosport. What do you do down in Gosport?
05:51I'm a retired teacher.
05:52Right, okay, what do you do now that you're retired?
05:54One of my favourite things to do is to ride my big motorbike.
05:58Ride your big motorbike.
05:59When you say big motorbike, what do you have?
06:01I have a 500cc cruiser.
06:03That's pretty cool, that's great.
06:05I am actually a biker granny.
06:07You are a biker granny?
06:08Yes, I have 13 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
06:11You do?
06:12I do.
06:13Wow.
06:18Keeps you busy.
06:19Just a bit.
06:20Yeah, I bet.
06:21If you win some money, what would you like to do with it?
06:23Well, Brad, I have lost 14 stone in weight.
06:29How did you do that?
06:32It's taken years and it's probably every method you can think of.
06:35But unfortunately, when you've lost that much weight, gravity is not your friend.
06:40Right, yeah.
06:41So, if I were to win any money, if I was lucky enough, that would go into my nip and tuck fund.
06:47So that's what we did.
06:48Good for you.
06:50Good for you.
06:52Well, you'll need some money to have what you need to have done.
06:57Yes.
06:58It's the cash builder.
06:59Each correct answer is worth a grand.
07:00Don't get the first one wrong.
07:01Please don't do that.
07:02Okay.
07:03Are you ready?
07:04Yes, I'm ready.

08:03And sonar is sound, navigation and ranging.

16:10I've got to say, Deb, you didn't do anything wrong. You played really well. You're unlucky to come out against Chasers and
16:17incredible form, but you could be absolutely proud of your performance. It was brilliant and you got some really good answers.
16:22Oh, yeah.
16:23No, you really did. You really did.
16:28I'm really, really sorry, Deborah, but you have been beaten by the Chasers. Thank you very much for coming on. God bless.

16:39That was clever.

16:45The key thing was, especially Jenny stayed right in focus, absolutely laser-like, itching for the key word of Leinster and then bang.
16:54Yeah, but I actually feel terrible.
16:56Why?
16:57Because she played so well.
16:59Yeah.
17:00And it was down to that last literal second.
17:03Yeah.
17:04And it was just because I was playing on pure instinct. Once we've got the bit between our teeth, we have to go for it.
17:09In quizzing terms, you're like pro athletes. You're not going to throw it. You've got to do your stuff. That's what you're there for.

18:08I love Weymouth. What do you do for a living?
18:10I am a travel agent for a ski holiday company.
18:13Very good. Do you ski yourself?
18:15Yes, but not very well.
18:16Right, join the club, that's right.
18:18And how long have you been doing that?
18:19About two years, but I did four winter seasons before that, so working in the Alps of Chalet Girl.

18:46Yeah.
18:47Here's a cash builder for you. Five multiple choice questions.

20:07Here's your next question.
20:09Which lyric from the song Jingle Bells forms the title of an Arnold Schwarzenegger film?
20:16A. Dashing through the snow.
20:18B. Jingle all the way.
20:20C. Oh, what fun it is.
20:25I think Jingle all the way because I don't think the others are in the song.
20:29Oh, no, they're all in the song.
20:30Dashing through the snow.
20:32Is that not a different song?
20:33No.
20:34No.
20:35Same song.
20:36OK.
20:37You need to watch more musicals, Rue.
20:39I know.
20:40You say Jingle all the way.

20:58And you said, oh, you're amazing.
21:00I don't know what day it is.
21:03I'll tell you, I'm just like a bumbling fool going through life.
21:07I don't know how I've made it this far.
21:08Now I'm in my forties.
21:09It's very...
21:10It's very, very difficult to remember things.
21:14Right, there we go.
21:15Free ground.
21:16Jamelia, of course.
21:17Jamelia, she was on the Celebrity Chase.
