00:00Hello, I'm Jason Manford and welcome to The Answer Run,
00:14the quiz where swiping left and right is the name of the game.
00:17It's as simple as that and here is how it works.
00:20Every question has two possible answers.
00:22In this example, we've got Posh and Bex.
00:25Questions will make their way down the run
00:28and our teams will swipe towards the answer that they think is correct.
00:31So, nickname of Peterborough United Football Club for £100,
00:34I reckon that's the Posh.
00:35So, I get that £100 into my prize pot.
00:39But if I got it wrong, Daniel Kaluuya's character in TV drama Skins,
00:44I reckon that's Bex.
00:46I got it wrong. I lose that same value.
00:50So, let's meet the teams.
00:52Taking on The Answer Run today.
00:54I'm Paula and this is Lindsay and we're friends from South Shields.
00:58I'm Matt, this is Jem, my fiancée and we're from Blackpool.
01:02I'm Jack, this is James and we're best mates from South East London.
01:06Well, it's great to see you all. Welcome to The Answer Run.
01:08We'll get to know you a little bit better as and when you come up to play.
01:12It's time now, though, to get started.
01:15Let's have a look at the category pairs on offer in round one.
01:18We've got Dracula, Frankenstein, Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, Rockets and Jets.
01:26Now, I'm sure you're already thinking which ones you want and which ones you don't want.
01:30The only way for you to get a choice in the category first is to win this race to the run.
01:36Otherwise, you could be stuck with something you do not want.
01:40Teams, get yourself ready.
01:41If you buzz in with an incorrect answer, you'll be frozen out of the question.
01:45The first thing to give me three correct answers will step up to the run and get a choice.
01:49So let's play Race to the Run.
01:51Fingers on buzzers.
01:56What is the usual term for a chemical treatment applied to the hair to create fixed curls?
02:03Paula and Lindsay.
02:04Perm.
02:05A perm.
02:06One point to you.
02:08Which organ of Pinocchio's body grows when he tells Paula and Lindsay?
02:12Nose.
02:13Correct.
02:15How many kilograms are in a metric tonne?
02:19Matt and Jem.
02:20A thousand.
02:21Correct.
02:23The 2025 romantic comedy subtitled Mad About The Boy is the fourth in which film series?
02:31Paula and Lindsay.
02:33Bridget Jones.
02:34Correct.
02:35Three points for you guys.
02:36Welcome.
02:37Come and join me at the answer run.
02:45Paula and Lindsay, welcome to the show.
02:48So, old friends.
02:50How long have you been friends for?
02:52Nine.
02:52About nine or ten years.
02:54Nine or ten years.
02:54Where did you meet?
02:56At work.
02:56I didn't work.
02:57We did work in a learning disability team.
02:59Right.
03:00So, NHS.
03:01Yeah.
03:01Love it.
03:01So, are you meet up every week, every day?
03:04How often do you speak to each other?
03:06Weekly.
03:06Weekly, I would say.
03:07Yeah.
03:08Yeah, yeah.
03:08It involves wine.
03:09I've heard that when you were at the pub, Paula, you start to rhyme things.
03:13What's this about?
03:15I don't know what happens to me voice, but I either rhyme or I talk in a different accent.
03:19Tense to go Scouse or Welsh.
03:22She'll call me Lindsay Winsey.
03:23And what other friend, Julie Wooley?
03:25Oh, no.
03:26JC Wasey.
03:26Good thing.
03:27All right, well, let's get on with the gamey-wamy.
03:30Let's have a little look at the categories that are on offer.
03:34Here they are again.
03:35So, we've got Dracula, Frankenstein, Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, Rocket and Jet.
03:40Any that you've got your eye on?
03:41Any you want to avoid?
03:42I think we need to rule out the models because they're quite close together.
03:46I'm not as...
03:47I really like Hammer Horror, but then I'm frightened, it's all on me.
03:51I would have chose Rocket Jet, but if...
03:54Not that I know a lot about Rocket and Jet, but you know the difference between Dracula
03:59and Frankenstein, don't you?
04:00Yeah, I think maybe that's...
04:01Come on, Lindsay, go for that.
04:02You're going to go for it?
04:03This is on you.
04:04OK.
04:05All right.
04:05Let's prep the answer on.
04:07We're swiping left for Dracula, right for Frankenstein.
04:13You've got 15 questions.
04:14Correct answers add to your bank.
04:16Wrong answers take away from your price pot.
04:18And if an answer reaches the bottom of the answer, and before you answer it, that will
04:22count as a wrong answer.
04:24There's £1,000 up for grabs.
04:27Let's get our first question.
04:29In the lyrics of Monster Mash.
04:32Frankenstein?
04:33I don't know.
04:35OK, don't worry, it's Dracula.
04:38I know.
04:38Lived in Romania.

05:15I don't know.
05:16I don't know.
05:17I don't know.
05:18I don't know.

05:20What do you want to guess?
05:21Frankenstein?
05:22Oh, no.
05:23Travelled to Whitby, North Yorkshire.
05:25Dracula.
05:25Yeah, Dracula.
05:27£20.
05:28We've all got to have a holiday, haven't we?
05:30Nickname of snooker player Ray Reardon.
05:33I don't know.
05:34I don't know.
05:34I don't know.
05:34What do you want to guess?
05:36Frankenstein.
05:38Oh, no.
05:39Dracula.
05:40Similar hairstyle.
05:41Written by a teenager.
05:42Written by a teenager.
05:43God, I think Mary Shelley was Frankenstein.
05:46So, yeah, that one.
05:48That one.
05:49That's right, £100.
05:521994 film directed by Kenneth Branagh.
05:55Frankenstein?
05:57Yes, yes, yes.
05:58Yeah, he played Frankenstein as well.
06:00£20.
06:02Published first.
06:03This is a big one.
06:04Dracula.
06:06Yes.
06:07I think.
06:08No, it wasn't published in 1818.
06:11Dracula wasn't published until 1897.
06:15Features a ship named the Demeter.
06:17Dracula came in front of a ship, didn't he?
06:19Dracula's in the coffin, isn't he?
06:21Correct, £50.
06:23Features letters of the Arctic Explorer character Robert Walton.
06:28Would that have the ship relevant?
06:29Letters, letters, Dracula, yeah.
06:30Oh, got that.
06:32Oh, you lost 100 there.
06:34Last question.
06:36Subtitled, The Modern Prometheus.
06:39Frankenstein?
06:40Yeah.
06:42Correct, £50.
06:43Oh, that was a mixed bag, wasn't it?
06:46It was.
06:47I was hoping for, like, film-type questions.
06:50Yeah.
06:50Well, you actually got 11 right.
06:52Oh, well.
06:53Oh, OK.
06:53So you did well.
06:54We just got the lower value ones right.
06:56I know.
06:57It's the amounts.
06:58Yeah.
06:59And Mary Shelley, just 18 when she started writing Frankenstein.
07:02That's incredible, isn't it?
07:03Yeah.
07:03I've definitely not achieved enough if an 18-year-old is writing Frankenstein.
07:06But some good knowledge in there.
07:09Unlucky on this occasion to only end up with £160.
07:13But that money is safe for now.
07:15You can head back to your podium.
07:16Well done.
07:17Thank you, too.
07:21Let's find out who's playing next.

08:49Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, Rocket and Jet.
08:51I know nothing about Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss.
08:55OK.
08:55I can only think that Rocket and Jet.
08:58Yeah, we'll probably go for that, yeah.
08:59Yeah, I think so.
09:00So you think Rocket and Jet?
09:01Yeah, I think so, yeah.
09:02Well, lucky Jack and James know loads, don't you, about Naomi Campbell?

11:59That money is safe for now.
12:01You can head back to your podium.
12:02Well done.
12:07So two teams have played.
12:09One is left.

12:25What about you, James?
12:26I am a fire alarm engineer.
12:27Oh, OK.
12:28So two important jobs there, keeping people safe, lovely.
12:31And what about when you're away from work?
12:33Like to do a bit of travelling together.
12:35So you've been on holidays together?
12:36Yes, we have.
12:37Yes.
12:37Have they always gone well?
12:39Yeah, pretty well.
12:40Yeah.
12:40Apart from the most recent one.
12:41Oh, right.
12:42Yeah, well, we were planning on going to Bosnia together.
12:46James went out the night before and slept through his alarms the next morning.
12:52So, missed my 25 missed goals as well.
12:55That's no good, is it?
12:56Yeah.
12:57That's not good for someone who's a fire safety engineer as well.
12:59You should be sleeping through alarms, James.
13:02It's the last thing I want to win.
13:03It's just silent to me now.
13:05I hear it so much.
13:05So, you just hear them all the time.
13:07Yeah.
13:08Fair enough.
13:09You have been left with...
13:12Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss.
13:13Is it the subject you would have chosen?
13:15Yeah, supermodel fans, yeah.
13:16I wouldn't think so, but we're actually massively into supermodels, so...
13:19OK, fine.
13:20OK, good to hear that.
13:21Yeah, we're happy with that.
13:22All right, well, let's prep the answer on and see how well you do.

15:38It was £100.
15:39Last question.
15:41Her agency signed Rita Ora in 2018.
15:44I'd say Naomi Campbell.
15:45Let's go with that.
15:45Oh, it was Kate Moss.
15:48So lucky.
15:49Hey, crikey.
15:51You know, you're stuck.
15:5210 out of 15.
15:54Couple of guesses in there?
15:55Oh, yeah.
15:55Yeah.
15:56Yeah, nine out of them would guess.
15:59The big one you got right was the 18-carat gold statue.
16:03So that's made all the difference there to the prize amount.
16:07£370 now.
16:08You can go back to your podium.
16:09Well done, lads.
16:10So at the end of round one, let's take a look at the totals.
16:17Paul and Lindsay have £160.
16:19Jack and James, £370.
16:21But in the lead with £470, it's Matt and Jem.
16:27There you go.
16:28What a topsy-turvy round one that was.
16:30So you got last pick, but you're not in last place.
16:32You got first pick, but you are in last place.
16:34Anything can happen in the race to the run.
16:36Time now for round two.
16:38It's a bit more difficult, this one, because the stakes are higher.
16:41At the end of this one, one of the teams will be going home.
16:44Let's take a look at these three new categories.
16:49We've got Channel Islands, Shetland Islands.
16:52Holly, Emma, Duke, Earl.
16:55Once again, we'll play the race to the run to see who gets first pick.
16:59If you give me an incorrect answer,
17:01just remember that you'll be frozen out of the question.
17:03Fingers on buzzing.
17:04Victoria Falls is a waterfall on the border of Zambia
17:08and which other African country?
17:11Jack and James.

17:17Correct.
17:20Reid Hoffman and Eric Lye were among the co-founders

17:37Paula and Lindsay.
17:38Sudoku.
17:39Sudoku, that's right.
17:42Which luxury train service began running from Paris to Istanbul?
17:46Jack and James.
17:47Oh, I'm going to have to freeze you out there.
17:51You've got to know that answer before you buzz.
17:53Which luxury train service began running from Paris to Istanbul in 18?
17:58Matt and Jim.

18:18The women's national football team of which country is nicknamed the Matildas?
18:24Paula and Lindsay.
18:26Australia.
18:27Yes, it is, yes.
18:29Say it with confidence.
18:31That's three points to you.
18:33Come and join me at the run.
18:34OK, so, first up again.
18:43Didn't go so well last time.
18:44No, it didn't.
18:45Hopefully it'll be a little bit better this time.
18:47Hopefully.
18:48So, if you won some money today, what would you spend it on?
18:50So, it's my 40th birthday later this year.
18:53And Lindsay's 40th birthday was during the pandemic.
18:57Missed out.
18:58And she was pregnant, so all celebrations were called off.
19:02So, a big old party.
19:02I'm going to overtake hers.
19:03No, I'm not.
19:04No, a little joint birthday party.
19:06That'd be a lovely thing to do.
19:07OK, well, at the moment, it sounds rubbish because you've only got 160 quid.
19:11But that money is now safe.
19:14This second round requires concentration because each question is now worth two amounts.
19:19A higher amount and a lower amount.
19:20If you're confident of the answer, then you go for the higher amount.
19:23If you're not so sure, aim lower.
19:26Gold has the symbol AU.
19:29So, let's remind ourselves of the categories.
19:32You get first dibs again.
19:33What are you thinking?
19:35We've got Channel Islands, Shetland Islands, Holly, Emma, Duke, Earl.
19:40I thought Holly, Emma straight away when I saw them.
19:43That was my quote, it was, well, I don't think I'd know about the differences with the islands.
19:48Do you know much difference between the Channel Islands and Shetland Islands?
19:51No.
19:51Duke and Earl could be historical, could be surnames.
19:54Surnames.
19:55Definitely got to be Holly and Emma.
19:57Yeah, definitely.
19:58Holly and Emma.
19:59Yeah.
19:59OK, let's prep the answer up.
20:03We're swiping left for Holly and right for Emma.
20:06Any money here will be added to the money that you won in the first round.
20:09You've got 15 questions and there's now £2,000 up for grabs.

22:37I thought Holly.
22:38No, you both.
22:40No, it was Emma Stone.
22:42You said different things to what you were swiping.
22:48I know.
22:49It was absolute chaos.
22:50It's because they don't rhyme.
22:52It's because they don't rhyme.
22:54I know.
22:54Well, that was rubbishy-wubbishy.
22:57That's feeling right now.
22:58I can't believe it.
23:00I've got a feeling this is going to become the ultimate story in the pub on a Friday night.
23:04Definitely.
23:06Although I don't really want to talk about it again.
23:08No.
23:0980 pounds you got there in round two, so that means your total is 240.
23:13You're going to head back to your podium.
23:15So we find ourselves in an unusual place where Jack, James, Matt and Jem, you both know you're through.
23:26So what you've got to work on now is trying to get as much money as possible in that bank to give yourself a start in the next round.
23:33So it's 2-1 to Matt and Jem.
23:35Fingers on buzzers.
23:38Which dessert named in honour of a ballerina consists of a meringue base topped with fruit and cream?

24:02Come and join me at the answer run.
24:09Jack, James, welcome.
24:11You get a little bit of a choice this time, thankfully.
24:13Yeah.
24:14I just lumbered with it.
24:15If you won some money today, what would you spend it on, lads?
24:17We're going to go on a trip to Southeast Asia.
24:19Oh, amazing.
24:20Thailand, Vietnam.
24:21That would be absolutely incredible.
24:23Yeah.
24:23All right, well, let's see what we can do.
24:25In round one, you managed to get yourself £370 in your prize spot.
24:29That money is safe for now.
24:30Any money you bank here will be added to it.
24:33There are two categories remaining.
24:35Let's have a look at them.
24:38Channel Islands, Shetland Islands.
24:41Duke and Earl.
24:42What do you think?
24:43So, I think neither of them are straightforward.
24:46No.
24:47We're better on geography than history, maybe.
24:50So, go for Channel Islands and Shetland Islands.
24:52Channel Islands and Shetland Islands.
24:55OK, let's prep the answer up.
24:57We're going to swipe left for Channel Islands,
24:59right for Shetland Islands.
25:01You've got 15 questions.
25:02There's £2,000 up for grabs.
25:04Good luck.
25:04Here's your first question.
25:09Oh, that's Shetland.
25:10Shetland, yeah.
25:10I'm pretty sure.
25:12It's nice.

25:26£20.
25:26Sorry.
25:27Home to the Uphelia Festival.
25:31That sounds Shetland.
25:34Shetland.
25:35Very good.
25:35Well done.
25:36Closer to Birmingham.
25:38Oh.
25:39It's the Midlands, isn't it?
25:40So...
25:41I'd actually go Channel.
25:42Go Channel.
25:43Correct, yeah.
25:45Over 200 miles as the crow flies.
25:53Go low, Shetland.
25:54Shetland, that's right.
25:57£50.
25:59Has more islands.
26:00I think that's Channel Islands.
26:01Yeah, yeah.
26:02Let's go 200.
26:04It isn't.
26:05It's the Shetland Islands.
26:06Got it.
26:06So we're bound to £70.

26:10Shetland.

26:38Oh, missed it.
26:39That's all right.
26:39Yeah, considerably so.
26:42Renowned for their light brown dairy cattle.
26:45I would say Shetland.
26:46I would say Shetland, yes.
26:48It's not the Jersey and Guernsey cattle.
26:50Cheers.
26:51Includes the island of Herm.
26:54I would say Shetland, it sounds...
26:56Yeah, go on.
26:57Is it?
26:58Channel Islands.
27:00Transport-linked name of a World War II resistance movement.
27:05I would say Channel.
27:06Go Channel.
27:07It's not, it's the Shetland bus.
27:11Last question.
27:12Sorrell Point Lighthouse.
27:14I'd say go low Shetland.
27:18Oh, lucky.
27:19Well, at least you went low.
27:21All right, not bad there.
27:22You've got eight correct answers there.
27:24And you've got the big one, which is the main thing, isn't it?
27:26Well done.
27:27Don't know our L plates and our P plates, but we're all right with speed limits.
27:31Well, you do, because you're a copper.
27:33I hope so, anyway, yeah.
27:35So you banked yourself £490.
27:37We'll add that to what you won in the first round, which takes your total to £860.
27:42You can make your way back.
27:43Well done, lads.
27:43How will our final team do?
27:50Let's find out.
27:50Let's welcome Matt and Jem back to The Answer Run.
27:58Matt and Jem, welcome back to The Answer Run.
28:01So no choice for you this time.
28:03If you won some money today, what would you spend it on?
28:05Well, I proposed to her on Christmas Day.
28:06Did you really?
28:07Finally.
28:08So she said yes.
28:09Yeah.
28:09And what's the plans?
28:11Well, we've not got a date really planned or anything like that.
28:14So just see if we get any money here.
28:17See what we get today.
28:18We'll determine, you know, how quick and...
28:20Yeah.
28:20It's all down to this.
28:23Look, there's £2,000 up for grabs in this next section.
28:27No choice of category, I'm afraid.
28:30You've been left with Duke and Earl.
28:32Is it the one you would have chosen?
28:33I'd have probably gone with Holly and Emma.
28:35Yeah.
28:35But to be fair, they were fairly difficult.
28:37They were difficult.
28:38I feel like you got lulled into that one, didn't you?
28:40I feel sorry if you're still stood there over there, having to watch us all play this game.
28:45Like kids not being allowed to play out.
28:48All right.
28:48Well, let's prep the answer run.
28:51We're going to be swiping left for Duke and right for Earl.
28:54Have you landed on your feet with this category?
28:56We'll find out.
28:57You've got 15 questions.
28:58Best of luck.

31:29Just go with one.
31:30Did you?
31:32Hey, there you go.
31:34That was hard.
31:35Are you pleased to get to the end of that one?
31:37Absolutely.
31:38Tactics seem to be, just go.
31:40Just go.
31:40Just go for it, yeah.
31:41Just go for it.
31:42Yeah, that's it.
31:43I won't lie to you.
31:44There was a lot of luck involved in that.
31:45Well, ten correct answers.
31:47You banked yourself £1,100, taking your total to £1,570.
31:52Can't grumble at that, can you?
31:53Fantastic.
31:54Right, go ahead and back.
31:55So, at the end of round two, let's take a look at the totals.
32:02Paula and Lindsay have £240.
32:05Jack and James have £860, but storming ahead.
32:08With 1,570, it's Matt and Gem.
32:11Sadly, that means we have to say goodbye to Paula and Lindsay.
32:19Oh, sorry, ladies.
32:21Can we go again?
32:22I'm afraid we can't.
32:24It's a shamey-wamey, as Paula would say on a Friday night.
32:27Let's give it up for Paula and Lindsay, everybody.
32:30So, that means Matt and Gem, Jack and James are going through
32:37to battle it out in today's Head to Head.
32:43And here is how it works.
32:45You start with the money that you banked so far.
32:48There's £710 between you.
32:50The Head to Head is all about being in control
32:53to decide who is going to start.
32:55We're going to play another race to the run.
32:57The first team to give me three correct answers will take control.
33:01Fingers on buzzers.
33:04Which grain is the typical main ingredient
33:06in the dish known as pilau or pi...

33:13The world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa,
33:17is in which Matt and Gem?

33:23Jack and James.
33:24The world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa,
33:26is in which city?
33:29Dubai.
33:29Correct, Dubai.

33:42Jack and James.
33:43Horrible Histories.
33:44Correct.
33:45Well done, 3-0 to you guys,
33:48so you get to control the answer run for now.
33:51Come on down.
33:51APPLAUSE
33:52So, Jack and James, you have control.
34:03Today's head-to-head category is...
34:07More than 100, less than 100.
34:10All right.
34:10It's not giving anything away, is it?
34:12It could be about anything.
34:13There is a maximum of 20 questions in this answer run,
34:16and this time it's against the clock.
34:18There's two minutes to bank as much as you can.
34:21Keep answering questions,
34:22and you will stay in control of the answer run.
34:25But if you get a question wrong,
34:26we'll stop the clock,
34:28and Matt and Gem will take over.
34:30They're back there,
34:31ready to pounce like a pair of foxes on bin day.
34:34Let's prep the answer run.
34:37We'll swipe it left for more than 100,
34:39right for less than 100.
34:41Let's put a clock up for the viewers at home,
34:43and your time starts now.

37:58More, more, more, yeah.
38:00Oh, it's not the clock.
38:01It was just 65.
38:03Matt and Gem, come and have one last go.
38:06Can you make up this difference in the next few seconds?
38:10Let's see.
38:11Restart the clock.
38:12Number of days David Blaine spent alone in a box.
38:15Oh, that was nearly enough time.
38:18Crikey.
38:18It was 44 days, anyway.
38:20I'm sure you would have got that.
38:21Jack and James come forward.
38:23Oh, not a lot in it in the end, was there?
38:27It's mighty close.
38:27It's just keeping control of that answer run.
38:31Is there any of those moments where you're kicking yourself, Matt and Gem?
38:34That bird one at the end, I would have thought there would have been more than 80, do you know?
38:37Yeah.
38:38Number of different species, yeah.
38:40Only 80.
38:40Well, £1,270 is something to be proud of as well.
38:45It just could not beat Jack and James, £1,610.
38:48So, sadly, we've got to say goodbye to Matt and Gem.
38:53But well done.
38:54Jack and James, you're through to today's final.
39:00Jack and James, well done.
39:02John, you are playing for your prize pot of £1,610.
39:06So, if you won some money today, remind us what you'd spend it on.
39:10We'd like to potentially go and do some travelling around Southeast Asia.
39:13Yeah?
39:14We've been doing a bit around Europe, so we'd like to go.
39:17So, you've never been out to Asia together?
39:18No, no.
39:19Yeah.
39:20It'd be good.
39:20Thailand and Vietnam.
39:22Yeah, what a trip that would be.
39:23Yeah.
39:23Incredible.
39:24Well, look, all that stands between you and that amazing trip is one final answer run.
39:30This time, when you give a correct answer, the questions will turn into a gold block.
39:35You've got just 90 seconds to answer eight questions correctly in a row.
39:39Your stack will reach the jackpot line and you'll take home all of your hard-earned cash.
39:44If at any point you answer incorrectly or if one of the answers hits the top of your stack,
39:50you'll start building again from the bottom.
39:53So, your thinking time gets shorter as your stack gets higher.
39:56If at the end of 90 seconds you reach the halfway line, we'll give you half your prize pot.
40:03All right.
40:04So, let's see.
40:06Your all-important final choice of categories.
40:08We've got starts with two, starts with B, Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra.
40:15What do you think?
40:16I know a fair bit of music by Elvis and Frank Sinatra, but it's not going to be straightforward.
40:23No, it's not.
40:23I think that's more generic, starts with two and starts with B.
40:26Yeah, I think we'll go with the top one.
40:27And the pair of yours, the knowledge together might be more useful for that.
40:31OK, so, starts with two, starts with B.
40:35We're going to prep the answer on.
40:38We are going to be swiping left for starts with two, right for starts with B.
40:43Here we are in the final, lads.
40:45Take off those L plates, you've got to forget about that now.
40:48We're going to pop a clock on for the viewers at home.

42:38That's all right.
42:38You were there.
42:39I mean, you got nine correct answers.
42:41So, if they'd have been in order...
42:43Yeah.
42:43Yeah, we would have been all right, yeah.
42:44You'd have been all right.
42:45Well, look, I'm so sorry we couldn't help you get on that incredible trip.
