00:00.
00:23Hello and welcome to Beat the Chasers.
00:27And here they are.
00:30The Menace.
00:33The Governors.
00:35The Cinnamon.
00:37The Vixen.
00:39The Beast.
00:41And the Dark Destroyer.
00:50And there they are. Six reasons I keep my address private.
00:54Let me ask you this.
00:57When they make Beat the Chasers the movie, who will play you, governess?
01:02I'm holding out for Margot Robbie.
01:05She's going to have to scrub up a bit but I think she's got the basics.
01:09Yes, thank you. Vixen.
01:11I 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.
01:23And as we know, you don't even dress yourself.
01:29Menace.
01:30I think we should get Tom Cruise in to host this show.
01:32Save ITV a packet.
01:37Cinnamon.
01:38To play you in the movie, obviously Daniel Craig.
01:41Sorry, no. Wendy Craig.
01:48OK, well there you have it.
01:50Tonight we have contestants from across the country who think they can beat the Chasers.
01:55Can they? Let's get cracking.
01:56Please join me.
01:57It's Brendan from London.
01:59Where are you, Brendan?
02:00All right, Brendan, provide a challenge, mate.
02:12Nice shoes.
02:13All right, Brendan, cool.
02:20Cool shoes.
02:21It's their first outing.
02:22It's their first outing?
02:23Yeah, I bought them for a holiday, they didn't turn up in time.
02:25So, you get the first job.
02:27Absolutely, they're really snazzy, mate.
02:29All right, what do you do for a living?
02:30Solution Architect.
02:31So, I design...
02:32Sushi Architect.
02:33Solution Architect.
02:34Solution Architect.
02:35Oh, Solution?
02:36Yes.
02:37Sushi Architect.
02:38Wow.
02:39OK.
02:40All right, OK.
02:41So, Solutions Architect.
02:42What is that?
02:43Logistics and stuff?
02:44So, I design software.
02:45Healthcare software at the moment.
02:46Right.
02:47It's mainly just drawing boxes with lines in between.
02:49OK, fair enough.
02:50And what do you do?
02:51Hobbies, anything?
02:52What do you get up to?
02:53I like to go hiking, out in nature, things like that.
02:55OK.
02:56Are you a naturist yourself?
02:57LAUGHTER
02:58I don't know how to ask that, Brad.
03:01Not in those shoes, you mean?
03:03LAUGHTER
03:04Just aimly walking around naked, apart from the new shoes.
03:09No-one's looking at anything going,
03:11Those shoes are cracking, by the way.
03:13It's so distracting.
03:14Yeah.
03:15Yeah.
03:16To win some money, what do you want to do with it?
03:18I want a camera van.
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.
03:25Don't blame me.
03:26I'll wish you luck with that.
03:27All right, 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.
03:33Get the first one wrong, you are out.
03:35OK.
03:36All right, I'll wish you luck.
03:37Here we go.
03:38Come on.
03:39CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
03:43Good luck, when it comes to the first question.
03:46In the UK and Australia, which of these is used as a slang term for a drink,
03:51especially beer?
03:53A, sherbet.
03:54B, licorice.
03:56C, toffee.
04:02This is what I was worried about.
04:03Really?
04:04I honestly have no idea.
04:07Oh, dear.
04:10Erm...
04:13Oh, my God.
04:14I'm going to go out on the first question.
04:19We'll go for...
04:21Oh, my gosh.
04:23We'll go for...
04:26C, toffee.
04:30OK, you're going for toffee.
04:32Is that the right answer?
04:33No.
04:34Correct answer is...
04:36And I've heard this term lots, actually.
04:40Yeah, sherbet.
04:41Vixen.
04:42That is very unfortunate.
04:43A 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, we're 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.
04:56But what's interesting is, I find it quite an archaic term.
05:00I find it a term of men my age, you know what I mean?
05:03And I'm only in my 40s, so, you know, I've heard it, so I'm sorry.
05:08That's the way it goes.
05:09Brendan, thank you so much.
05:10Thank you so much.
05:11Yeah, thank you.
05:12You have been beaten by the points already.
05:17That's definitely unlucky.
05:21That is tough.
05:23That is not a good start.
05:25However, we'll crack straight on.
05:27Next up to try and beat the Chasers, it's Deborah from Gosport.
05:31Welcome 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.
06:04That's pretty cool.
06:05That's great.
06:06I am actually a biker granny.
06:07You are a biker granny?
06:08Yes, I have 13 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
06:11You do?
06:12We do.
06:13Wow.
06:19That keeps you busy.
06:20Just a bit.
06:21Yeah, I bet.
06:22If you win some money, what would you like to do with it?
06:24Well, Brad, I have lost 14 stone in weight.
06:28Cool.
06:30How did you do that?
06:32Well, it's taken years and it's probably every method you can think of.
06:36But unfortunately, when you've lost that much weight, gravity is not your friend.
06:41Right, yeah.
06:42So, 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.

28:44Pickleball
28:45Pickleball
28:46Yes, what is that?
28:47Well, it's like sort of a combo of tennis and table tennis
28:50I was addicted to it

28:54Because I was playing so much
28:56And then I'd stop
