Transcript

00:00Welcome to the Inner Circle, the game where trust is as important as knowledge.

00:06I know that you're bluffing.

00:07You don't.

00:08He's trying to frame me to be a liar. I'm really not.

00:10The aim of the game, get the most money and the best brains into the final.

00:15To win, the players need to be strategic and outsmart the rest.

00:20Then they take their secret stash of cash and the person they trust the most to the final.

00:25What's made important? Money off the mainship.

00:27Oof. Where two players will face the ultimate decision.

00:30Split the prize money and walk away as equals.

00:33Hooray!

00:35Or attempt to take it all by shafting the other player and leaving them with nothing.

00:39You little shafters!

00:41But the question is, who would you trust?

00:48I'm Hussain and I'm from Blackburn.

00:49I work as a medical administrator and today I'm going to be diagnosing the competition one bluff at a time.

00:55I'm Susan and I'm from Kinghorn in Fife.

00:58I'm a dog groomer and I know how to keep them neat and tidy, but I'm not above making a mess to win.

01:05I'm Richard, a marine engineer from Ellesmere Port.

01:09I spent years fixing engines mid-ocean. Figuring out people in a studio, that's easy.

01:15I'm Astrix, social media executive from Leeds.

01:19No plan yet, just vibes. Let's see who slips up first.

01:22I'm Dennis. I'm from Norwich. I'm a law student.

01:26Consider this my closing statement. I'm here to take the lot.

01:29I'm Cher, a performance artist and model based in London.

01:33They say sharing is caring, but sharing is winning.

01:37Welcome, everyone. You are about to face four rounds.

01:44After every round, one of you will be eliminated.

01:47However, if you win your secure immunity for that round, meaning you'll be safe from elimination,

01:52plus you'll receive a game-changing power.

01:56This will give you a big advantage that should get you one step closer to the final,

02:00because remember, only two of you can make it there.

02:04We've got some new faces to the inner circle. Richard and Astrix, welcome.

02:09Richard, you work as a marine engineer and have been on some very posh boats,

02:13a little bird told me.

02:15That's right, Amanda. I'm sure you've been on some yourself.

02:18Well, I might have been, yes.

02:22Who's the most famous person you've met on board?

02:25Beyonce, Jay-Z, Barack Obama, Tom Hanks.

02:28Oh, my gosh. Astrix, welcome.

02:31You work as a social media executive. Tell me what that is.

02:34It's a lot of talking to customers.

02:37And you work for a gambling company.

02:39Does that mean you're willing to take risks today?

02:42Well, I suppose everybody else would like to know, wouldn't they?

02:45They would like to know.

02:46OK, Hussain, we barely got a chance to chat to you yesterday.

02:50What made you want to come on the show in the first place?

02:53So I'm going to be entertaining everyone today.

02:56Oh, my goodness. What have we got to look forward to?

02:58Well, if they don't vote me out, they'll see.

03:00OK, well, listen, we'll catch up with the rest of you a little bit later on.

03:04Right, let's talk money.

03:07Earlier on, the Inner Circle randomly assigned each player a secret stash of cash.

03:13One of them will have absolutely zero,

03:16and one of them will have a very tasty sum of £4,000.

03:20So for our players, Inner Circle, please reveal the secret stashes.

03:26And for you at home, you can now see everyone's secret stash amount,

03:29so you always know where the money is.

03:45And if you think I know how much each player's got, you'd be wrong.

03:49I only find out at the end like everybody else.

03:51OK, your mission is now simple.

03:54You've got four rounds to get yourself and some big money into the final.

03:58So whoever bags the most points in this game will secure immunity

04:03and pocket the first power, which is a very lovely £1,000,

04:07to add to your secret stash.

04:09It's time for round one.

04:11Moving in circles.

04:14I'll ask a question.

04:15All our players need to do is stand in the section with the correct answer to score one point.

04:21If they're brave enough to correctly go it alone, they'll score three points.

04:25I wonder if you'll take a chance or follow the crowd.

04:28After each question, you will have seven seconds to stand on the answer,

04:33so you need to be super quick and very decisive.

04:36Let's play.

04:40Good luck, everyone.

04:42Your options are Castaway, Saving Private Ryan,

04:45Forrest Gump.

04:47Your question is,

04:49which of these Tom Hanks films was released in the noughties?

04:54In the noughties.

05:03OK, so we've got Dennis and Hussain on Castaway,

05:06we've got Asterix and Richard on Saving Private Ryan,

05:09and we've got Cher and Susan on Forrest Gump.

05:11Who's right?

05:12Well done, boys.

05:15One point each.

05:16Castaway was 2001.

05:18Saving Private Ryan was 98.

05:21And Forrest Gump was 94.

05:24The inner circle's going to make things a little bit more tricky now.

05:28You're going to have four possible answers, and they are day, month, year, decade.

05:36Your question is, which of these is 525,600 minutes long?

05:42OK, so we've got Dennis and Hussain and Susan and Cher on month,

05:56and we've got Richard on decade, and we've got Asterix on year.

06:01Inner circle, please reveal the correct answer.

06:05Well done, Asterix.

06:06You scored three points because you're all on your own.

06:08Well done.

06:09Your options are something kind of ooh, love machine, sound of the underground, and jump.

06:16Your question is, which of these Girls Aloud singles was a Christmas number one?

06:22A Christmas number one for Girls Aloud.

06:24Which one was it?

06:31OK, Hussain and Cher leapt onto sound of the underground.

06:34We've got Dennis on something kind of ooh.

06:37We've got Richard on love machine.

06:39Do you belong there, Richard?

06:41Of course.

06:42And we've got Asterix and Susan on jump.

06:45Inner circle, please reveal the correct answer.

06:49Yes.

06:49Well done, Cher and Hussain.

06:52You've scored one point each there.

06:54It was also their first number one.

06:56OK, it's the last chance to win some points.

06:59Remember, there are three points up for grabs if you correctly go it alone.

07:03Your options are arms, shoulders, back, thighs.

07:08Your question is, skull crushers is the name of a weighted exercise

07:13that primarily targets which area of the body?

07:17Skull crushers.

07:21Asterix and Richard are on shoulders.

07:30Hussain is on thighs.

07:32And we have Susan, Dennis and Cher on arms.

07:35Inner circle, please reveal the correct answer.

07:38Well done, arms is correct.

07:41That was the last question.

07:42Please return to your podiums.

07:48Inner circle, please reveal who's won the round.

07:50Asterix, well done, you're the winner.

07:57Newbie on the block and you've smashed it.

08:00As the winner, you've secured your spot in the next round

08:02and you've won the first power, which is £1,000 to add to your secret stash.

08:07Well, it is time for the first vote.

08:15One of you and your secret stash is about to be eliminated.

08:18Asterix, you have immunity here so you are safe for the minute,

08:22but for the rest of you, you really need to fight to stay in the game.

08:25Remember, you want the most money, but you also want somebody with a good general knowledge

08:30in that final.

08:31That's your motivation.

08:33Over to you.

08:34The floor is open.

08:35Who's got the big money?

08:37Look, I've been here all week now.

08:40I've seen how it goes when I've got big money and I say I have big money.

08:44I've seen a lot of games and I can say now I've got a top three amount,

08:48and that's the truth.

08:50How much is it?

08:51I'm not going to reveal that at this point.

08:52I've seen what happens when you reveal it too early.

08:54I'm not going to play that now.

08:56But later in the game, someone wants to have a peek, be my guest.

08:59I'm glad I've got a larger amount, finally.

09:01I've got a larger amount than what I did yesterday.

09:03How much is it?

09:04How much have you got?

09:05I'm safe.

09:06You don't need to know about me.

09:08I've got a thousand.

09:09Mine's a good amount, but I'm going to lay on Dennis's wisdom here since it's my first time

09:16and I'm going to keep she done.

09:17I've got top three.

09:20Susan, how much have you got?

09:22I've got an amount that is worth bringing to the party.

09:26Yeah?

09:27Good answer.

09:28Somebody's lied, but I'm not going to say anything more than that.

09:32I've got a four-digit figure.

09:34That's all I can say.

09:36And all I can say is, remember, this is not just about the money.

09:38This is about the brains as well.

09:41It's time to lock in your decisions.

09:58Okay, let's find out who's going to be cast out of the inner circle first.

10:02Hussein, let's start with you.

10:04Who are you voting for?

10:06I voted for Dennis.

10:07And why?

10:07I think he looks a bit tired.

10:09I think he needs to go home.

10:12Okay.

10:14Susan, who are you casting out?

10:17Well, this time I voted for Cher.

10:20And why?

10:21I'm not sure how much she's bringing to the party and whether she's bringing smart answers.

10:30Richard, who are you casting out?

10:31Uh, I've opted to vote for Hussein, I'm afraid.

10:36Just from the discussion there, there was only one snippet of evidence where Asterix has said one person's lying and the only person who announced a value was Hussein.

10:47So the only thing I can go off is that Hussein has maybe not told the truth.

10:52Asterix, who are you casting out?

10:55Um, I have also voted for Hussein.

10:58Um.

10:59And why?

10:59It's actually nothing to do with that little bit of information I gave out earlier.

11:03It just seemed a bit too, a bit too desperate to convince everybody of what you've got, which is what did it for me, to be honest.

11:11Okay, thank you.

11:11Dennis, who are you casting out?

11:14I voted for Richard.

11:15And why?

11:16But the whole newbie element and it's an unknown quantity at this stage.

11:20However, in sort of your argument about why you voted on this round, I do take that in and I do actually appreciate that.

11:28And Cher, who's got your vote?

11:29I voted Dennis.

11:31Just because he's got a really good poker face, I can't really tell if he's telling the truth or lying.

11:37So, we have a tie. Hussein and Dennis, you both have two votes each, which means asterisks.

11:46Because you've won the last round, you get the deciding vote here.

11:51Which of those two people are you going to vote out?

11:54I feel really mean. I'm going to stick with my original vote and go for Hussein.

12:00Oh, Hussein. I was looking forward to being entertained.

12:05You'll have to wait a bit longer now.

12:07Thank you so much for bringing positive energy to the show.

12:10But I'm afraid you have been cast out of the inner circle.

12:13Thank you for having me.

12:19Hussein claimed to have a four-figure stash.

12:22Does that mean they just got rid of some big money?

12:25Only you at home know where that money is.

12:28Choices are made, though.

12:29No rewinds.

12:30It's time for round two.

12:32And you really want to win this because, as well as immunity,

12:35the power on offer is peak.

12:38This will give you a very big advantage as you'll be able to have a sneaky peek at someone's secret stash.

12:45Given that your ultimate goal is to get as much money as possible into that final,

12:49this could make all the difference.

12:50It's time for round two, Circle of Clues.

12:56For each question, I'm going to read a series of three clues.

12:59The quicker you buzz in with the correct link, the more points you'll win.

13:03But remember, if you get it wrong, you'll be frozen out of the rest of that question.

13:07It's time to get your brains in gear.

13:10Let's play.

13:13Question one.

13:14Can you name the landmark linked by these three clues?

13:18It inspired a location in George R.R. Martin's Game of Thrones series.

13:27OK, next clue for two points.

13:29It is named after a Roman emperor from the second century, Dennis.

13:33Hadrian's Wall.

13:34It's correct.

13:35Well done.

13:36The last clue would have been,

13:37this fortification was built to mark the northwestern border of Britannia

13:41and to separate the Romans from the so-called barbarians.

13:45Hadrian's Wall, it was indeed.

13:47Well done.

13:48OK, question number two.

13:49Can you name the prime minister linked by these three clues?

13:54This British prime minister was the ninth to serve under Queen Elizabeth II.

14:01Susan.

14:02Tony Blair.

14:03I'm afraid not.

14:04You're frozen out of this question.

14:06Restart the clock.

14:10He was in office when the Spice Girls formed.

14:14Asterix.

14:15David Cameron.

14:17I'm afraid not.

14:17You're frozen out of this question.

14:19Restart the clock.

14:21Yes, Dennis.

14:22John Major.

14:23Is correct for two points.

14:24Well done.

14:25The third clue would have been,

14:26he served for seven years between Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair.

14:30Question number three.

14:31Can you name the fruit linked by these three clues?

14:35It is technically a berry and is distantly related to ginger.

14:45This fruit features in the name of a superhero whose alter ego is Eric Wimp.

14:54It is a main ingredient in banoffee pie.

14:57Yes, Richard.

14:58Banana?

14:58Banana is correct.

15:00One point to you.

15:01Question number four.

15:02Can you name the actor linked by these three clues?

15:06His sister, Pauline, is a successful actor and producer.

15:15He showed up to his own lookalike contest in New York in October 2024.

15:19Yes, asterisk.

15:22Timothee Chalamet.

15:23Is correct for two points.

15:25Well done.

15:26And that is the end of the round.

15:32In a circle, please reveal the player with the most points.

15:35Dennis, you've won that round.

15:41As the winner, you've secured your place in the next round and you've won that second power,

15:46which is a sneaky peek at someone's secret stash.

15:49That power, as you know, because you've won it before, is a game changer.

15:53So Dennis, it's time for you to decide whose stash would you like to have a sneaky peek at?

15:58I'll go for Susan's.

16:00OK. In a circle, please let Dennis have a little peek at Susan's secret stash.

16:11All good?

16:14Wow. Just a lot of raised eyebrows and nodding.

16:18We're heading for another casting out.

16:24It's time for the second vote.

16:26Who do you think should stay and who needs to go?

16:30One wrong move could cost them the game.

16:32Another player and their secret stash is about to leave.

16:35Plus, I wonder if Dennis will let us know what he just saw.

16:39Who stays, who goes?

16:40It's down to you guys.

16:42The floor is open.

16:44Susan, what amount do you have?

16:48You know what it is. Why are you asking?

16:49I know what it is.

16:50I just want to see.

16:51You told us earlier that it was a good amount to bring to the party.

16:55No, I said it was worth bringing to the party, so I ain't got zero.

16:59Oh, no, I know that, but anything worth bringing is going to be top three.

17:03Is it top three?

17:03Uh, Dennis, can you share this information with us as lead investigator?

17:08I'm going to give one last chance.

17:09What is it top three?

17:11It's not a great amount.

17:12It's £50.

17:13OK.

17:14Sure.

17:16Can I ask, what do you have?

17:18Because I just noticed on the last question, you didn't, I think, opt in on any of the clues.

17:24I've got the top three.

17:26OK.

17:27What do you have, Asterix?

17:28At least a thousand.

17:29I was going to say, I've already got a bit of a target on my back for the swap,

17:33because you all know that I won the thousand from the first round.

17:36So, you know, I will say I haven't got the top amount.

17:38I haven't got the four grand.

17:40Just to remind you all, this is about trust.

17:43So perhaps you'd like to talk to people about their general knowledge.

17:46That's where I think Asterix and I make a good pairing.

17:50Oldest and youngest.

17:51I think between us, we do pretty well together.

17:54What's general knowledge about trust?

17:56I mean, even the trust thing, like, Dennis has told us Susan's amount,

18:01but Dennis hasn't necessarily told the truth.

18:04But the thing is, I chose Susan's amount because of actually what you said,

18:08that you had good general knowledge, and I can see that, and I fully back it.

18:12But when I saw that amount on screen, I just knew instantly, like, it's, you know,

18:16it's not worth that with £50, like, for me.

18:18I'm looking to do a good cash builder with someone.

18:21That's why I want the good general knowledge.

18:22That's why I was really sad.

18:23You didn't have a really good amount.

18:25If you've got the money, I've got the knowledge.

18:28And on that bombshell, please, will you lock in your decisions?

18:31The votes are in.

18:46Susan, tell me, who are you casting out?

18:48I've spent for Cher this time.

18:50I kind of feel I know what some of the boys have got.

18:54And I feel they're bringing quite a bit of general knowledge to the party.

18:59And Cher's amount, I'm not entirely sure that she's not bluffing.

19:05And Richard, who are you casting out?

19:09I also voted for Cher. I was just questioning the final cash builder.

19:14And I feel like I've got my knowledge, and there's going to be people who can fill in the gaps.

19:19And I need someone who can work with me for that.

19:23Thank you. Asterix, who's got your vote?

19:26I've gone for Susan. I'm really sorry.

19:28I thought everybody else was going to go for Susan after the cash reveal.

19:33And I didn't want to make an enemy out of somebody else that was staying behind.

19:36That was the only reasoning.

19:38Dennis. I voted for Susan.

19:41And why?

19:42Purely just because of what I saw on the screen.

19:44I mean, I do fully mean it.

19:45Honestly, I really wish you had big money.

19:48Because I think we could have been a great team.

19:49And Cher, who's got your vote?

19:51I voted for Susan, because I have a big amount, top three.

19:56And my name's Cher. I'm here to share.

19:58And I think Susan is trying to throw people off.

20:02OK, well, Susan, that's three votes for you.

20:05I agree, you have great general knowledge.

20:07That does count in this game.

20:09But today, it is all over for you.

20:11You have been cast out of the inner circle.

20:18Another player down.

20:19This lot are ruthless.

20:20To me, it feels like it's all about where the money is.

20:24But have they just said goodbye to somebody with brilliant general knowledge

20:27and who would have split in the final?

20:30There's now just two more chances to win immunity and a power that could help you through to that final.

20:36And this time, the power is swap.

20:40So if you win this round, you can swap stashes with any player.

20:45So if you don't have much in your secret stash, this could help you out.

20:49It's time for round three, connecting circles.

20:52It's a pairs game, so you're going to work together.

20:55You'll each have three chances to score and the person with the most points will win immunity and that important power.

21:03Each question has two correct answers.

21:06You've both got to stand on a correct answer.

21:08If you get one right, you'll score one point each.

21:11If you get them both right, that's three points each.

21:14So you need to get thinking, get moving and get connecting.

21:19Let's play.

21:23Our first pair is Richard and Dennis.

21:26Your answers are Paddington in Peru, Alien Romulus, Wicked, Gladiator 2, Sing Sing and Emilia Perez.

21:37Your question is, which two of these films received a Best Picture nomination at the 2025 Academy Awards?

21:46Which two received a Picture nomination?

21:49Do you know?

21:49Emilia Perez, I'm pretty sure, was one.

21:51OK.

21:52I'd say the second is Gladiator 2, but I'm not certain, if I'm honest.

21:56I'm not sure it's got that much, but I have nothing else to go on.

22:02Wicked, maybe. It's massive.

22:03Inner Circle, please reveal the correct answers.

22:08Yes.

22:08All right, we've got a point.

22:10You've got one point, Richard.

22:12If it's your gut feeling, go with your gut.

22:14Please return to your podiums.

22:17OK, Asterix and Cher, you're our next pairing.

22:20Your answers are Bridgetown, Caracas, Buenos Aires, Maputo, Hanoi and Tokyo.

22:29Which two of these capital cities are located in the southern hemisphere?

22:34Which two of these capital cities are located in the southern hemisphere?

22:40Hanoi and Tokyo. Tokyo is Japan, Hanoi is Vietnam.

22:43I was going for that.

22:44Those are both southern, right?

22:45I was going for that.

22:46Yeah? You happy with that?

22:47Yeah.

22:48I think I'm Buenos Aires.

22:49OK, so we've gone for Hanoi and Tokyo.

22:55Inner Circle, please reveal the correct answers.

22:57So they were Maputo and Buenos Aires.

23:02Never mind.

23:03Please return to your podiums.

23:05Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina and Maputo is Mozambique.

23:10Next up, Dennis and Cher, your answers are Midsummer Night's Dream, Macbeth, Coriolanus, The Tempest, Twelfth Night, The Merchant of Venice.

23:22Your question is, which two of these Shakespeare plays are tragedies?

23:27Which two are tragedies?

23:29Right, Macbeth's one.

23:31Macbeth and a Midsummer Night Dream?

23:34I don't think it is.

23:35Or Twelfth Night?

23:36The Tempest.

23:39I'm not sure about that.

23:40I'm not sure.

23:45OK, so we've gone for Macbeth and The Tempest.

23:47Inner Circle, please reveal the correct answers.

23:51It was Coriolanus.

23:53The Tempest is a comedy.

23:55That's OK, you still scored a point.

23:57Please return to your podiums.

24:01Richard and Asterix.

24:03Your answers are Frigate, Gunboat, Rig, Destroyer, Submarine, Dreadnought.

24:11I feel like this might be a gift for you, Richard.

24:13OK.

24:15Which two of these pieces are used in the board game Battleship?

24:23Gunboat, for sure.

24:24Are you sure?

24:25I thought Submarine and Dreadnought.

24:26I think Submarine, definitely.

24:27Submarine, yes.

24:29I'll go with Gunboat if you want to back that.

24:31Oh, sorry, no, Destroyer.

24:37That was close.

24:38Last minute change of heart.

24:39I wonder if it's paid off.

24:40Inner Circle, please reveal the correct answers.

24:44Bingo.

24:44Three points each.

24:45Please return to your podiums.

24:47Richard and Cher, your answers are Tungsten, Silver, Radon, Sulphur, Silicon, Tin.

24:59Your question is, which two of these chemical elements are represented by one letter in the periodic table?

25:08By one letter.

25:09Sulphur.

25:09Sulphur is S.

25:11And I'd say Radon because I think I know most of the others.

25:17Yeah, I think that's good.

25:18OK, so we've gone for Radon and Sulphur.

25:25Inner Circle, are they right?

25:28It was Tungsten.

25:29Radon is R-N.

25:31Tungsten is W.

25:33Please return to your podiums.

25:35OK, next up we have Asterix and Dennis.

25:39Here come your answers.

25:41ER, Call the Midwife, Scrubs, Grey's Anatomy, Holby City and House.

25:48Your question is, which two of these dramas were broadcast first?

25:53Which two of these dramas were broadcast first?

25:56Grey's Anatomy has been going for so long.

25:58Yeah, and Holby, hasn't it?

26:00House is fairly new.

26:01I have no idea what that is.

26:03I'll trust you if you think it's that one.

26:04I think Holby's been on a war.

26:07Oh, Scrubs is quite old though, isn't it?

26:10I think we've definitely got one.

26:12Definitely one.

26:13OK, so we've gone for Holby City and Grey's Anatomy.

26:15I think Scrubs might be it.

26:17Inner Circle, please reveal the correct answers.

26:21It was ER and Holby City.

26:23They were both in the 90s.

26:26The rest were the noughties.

26:28But you still scored a point.

26:29That was the last question.

26:31Please return to your podiums.

26:33Inner Circle, please reveal the player with the most points.

26:42Richard, you won that.

26:44Lovely.

26:45Fabulous, how are you feeling?

26:47Not bad, not bad.

26:48Fantastic.

26:49OK, well listen, you've won immunity and that crucial power.

26:53You can now make a swap.

26:54Or you could keep what you've got.

26:57What are you going to do?

26:59You've been very adamant that you've got big money and you've got big money.

27:02So I will be changing from bottom money and I'd like to swap a few, please, Cher.

27:10OK, so hopefully Cher was telling the truth and she's in the top three amounts of money.

27:17You've locked her in.

27:18Inner Circle, please, will you swap the secret stashes?

27:26Happy with that swap, Richard?

27:28Yes, indeed.

27:29Cher doesn't look so happy.

27:32Here are the headlines.

27:34Asterix added £1,000 to her stash in round one.

27:37Dennis then had a peek at Susan's stash and said she had £50.

27:42But was he telling the truth?

27:44And Richard has swapped with Cher and looks very pleased with himself.

27:48Things are hotting up.

27:50I wonder who's going to survive.

27:51We're about to find out.

27:52It's time to make another big decision.

27:59Welcome to the sharp end of the game.

28:01Only two of you can get in to the final.

28:03It's time to get your stories straight.

28:06Over to you.

28:07The floor's open.

28:09I'm going to start straight off if that's OK.

28:11Now that the swap's over, let's be very honest.

28:14So I'm going to reveal my amount.

28:16I had £1,000 to start with

28:19and then I've added the £1,000 in round one.

28:22I've got £2,000.

28:23I've got a figure that starts with a four.

28:27Obviously feeling pretty chuffed with myself.

28:29And as discussed previously, I think you've obviously got a lot more

28:34modern pop culture things to fill in the gaps in my knowledge.

28:36And I think, you know, we could be a formidable force.

28:39Do you want to dispute that?

28:40What has Richard left you with?

28:42Do you want to tell us?

28:44It was less than before.

28:45It was less than before.

28:47Do you want to give us the amount?

28:48I'm not going to reveal the amount, but it was less than before.

28:51I've gone from zero to 4,000.

28:53OK.

28:55Is he lying?

28:57Are you lying, Richard?

28:59No.

29:00You looked quite happy when you made the swap, to be fair.

29:02I couldn't either.

29:03I thought, like, yeah, he looks happier.

29:06And I like that.

29:06It is now time for you to lock in your decisions.

29:23Dennis, tell me, who are you casting out?

29:25I've put Cher.

29:26And why?

29:27I think when you made the swap, Richard, I looked at both of your faces and that was

29:32decided enough for me that I can see she was quite disappointed.

29:36Richard, who are you casting out?

29:39Unfortunately, I've also went for Cher.

29:41Um, you know, I want to share a good book of money with everyone.

29:45But, you know, I do believe she's honest and she will just split.

29:49But I know she's got zero to bring to the table.

29:51And that's where my decision's been based.

29:55Asterix.

29:57Unfortunately, it is unanimous.

29:58I've also voted for Cher.

30:00I think exactly what Dennis said.

30:02I think both of your faces when the swap was made was just undisputable evidence.

30:06I do think that you've been left with zero pounds, unfortunately.

30:09And Cher, who are you casting out?

30:12Dennis.

30:13And why?

30:15This is a very good liar.

30:17Okay.

30:19Well, Cher, that's three votes for you.

30:22We've loved having you, but you have been cast out of the inner circle.

30:31We have our final three players.

30:33Congratulations on making it this far, especially our newbies.

30:37However, only two of them can make it to the final

30:40and be in with a chance of walking away with their combined stash.

30:43Remember, I'm still not absolutely certain where the money is.

30:47The winner of this last round wins that final power

30:50and will control who joins them in the final.

30:54It's time for our last round, Circle Circuit.

30:58It's our very own racing game.

31:00I'm going to ask each of you a true or false question.

31:03You give me the correct answer and then you'll get to roll the dice.

31:06You will then move that number of spaces.

31:09The first player to get right round the circuit wins.

31:12Dennis, you're in pink.

31:13Richard, you're in yellow.

31:15Asterix, you're in blue.

31:17This is a real mix of general knowledge and a little bit of luck.

31:21So I wonder who's got the brains and the luck to complete this circuit.

31:26We're going to find out.

31:27Let's play.

31:27A. Dennis, you're up first.

31:31Margot Robbie starred in the TV soap Neighbours.

31:34True or false?

31:35True.

31:36It is indeed.

31:37Throw your dice.

31:39OK, you're on your way.

31:40Richard.

31:41In the ancient Olympic Games, athletes competed naked.

31:45True or false?

31:46False.

31:48It was true.

31:49What a sight.

31:51OK, asterix.

31:53Here's your statement.

31:54Is this true or false?

31:56Fifth Gear was the first programme to be broadcast on Channel 5.

32:01True.

32:02It is false.

32:04It was family affairs.

32:08Dennis, the first name of the sheriff in Bob Marley's song,

32:11I Shot the Sheriff, is John.

32:14I'm going to say true.

32:15It is true.

32:16Roll your dice.

32:18Oh, juicy.

32:23Richard.

32:24Speed dating was invented in the 90s.

32:26True or false?

32:28True.

32:29Yes.

32:30There you go.

32:31Roll your dice.

32:34You're on your way.

32:36Parquet is a type of street exercise developed in France.

32:40True or false?

32:42True.

32:43I'm afraid not.

32:44It's a type of flooring.

32:46OK, Dennis.

32:48In The Simpsons, the family dog, Santa's little helper, is a greyhound.

32:52Is that true or false?

32:53False.

32:54It's true.

32:56Richard.

32:57Coffin and almond are names for styles of shaped fingernails.

33:02True or false?

33:03I'll go true.

33:04It is true.

33:06It is true.

33:06These are almond-shaped.

33:08Lovely.

33:08OK, throw that dice.

33:13Two.

33:15Asterix.

33:16A baby koala is called a Jimmy.

33:18Is that true or false?

33:20True.

33:21I'm afraid not.

33:23It's a joey.

33:24Dennis, more than 80% of turtle species survive the asteroid impact that caused the extinction

33:32of the dinosaurs.

33:33Is that true or false?

33:35Let's say it's true.

33:36It is true.

33:37Roll that dice.

33:42Richard.

33:43Bangs is the US term for a fringe.

33:46True or false?

33:48Yeah, true.

33:49It is indeed.

33:50Roll your dice.

33:51Oh, my gosh.

33:57This is neck and neck.

33:58Ooh.

33:58Asterix.

34:00The French word for Wednesday is lundi.

34:03True or false?

34:05False.

34:06It is indeed.

34:08Lundi is Monday.

34:10Oh.

34:12You're on your way.

34:14Dennis.

34:15Suddenly Seymour is a song from the musical The Rocky Horror Show.

34:19Let's say it's true.

34:21It is not.

34:22It's from Little Shop of Horrors.

34:24I love that show.

34:26Richard.

34:26Malala Yousafzai became the youngest person to win a Nobel Prize in 2014.

34:32True or false?

34:33Yeah, I think it might be true.

34:36It is.

34:36Roll that dice.

34:39Oh!

34:41Well done, Richard.

34:44You have completed the circuit.

34:46You've made it.

34:47Congratulations.

34:49You feeling good?

34:49Oof.

34:50Better now.

34:51That was tense.

34:51A bit nervous.

34:52It was very tense.

34:54Well, listen, you have won the power to control the vote.

35:02Remember, you need somebody you can trust, but you also need somebody that can help increase

35:07your stash in that final cash builder. Dennis and Asterix, it is now time to convince Richard

35:15why you should be taken through to the final.

35:18Should we start with you, Dennis?

35:20Look, I've said in the last round I had a top two amount as an opening hand.

35:26I think that's a strong enough argument to say that, you know, I can add to your prize fund.

35:29Also, in terms of general knowledge, I mean, we were neck and neck, and you can see throughout

35:34the other games, we're neck and neck in terms of general knowledge.

35:37I think we'd be a great team.

35:39Asterix?

35:41I think you already know that I've got to be the choice for this. I mean, if you're telling the

35:45truth about your balance, you know that I've got more money than Dennis has. I feel like I held my own.

35:49The thing is, all I'll say is, we know for a fact you've got a grand, you won the first round,

35:55but in theory, you could have had zero and just made it a grand. It's not certain you'd have two.

36:00I mean, to build on that, I knew that Hussein was lying in the first round. I said on purpose,

36:04someone's lying so that I could come back to this point if I needed to. I knew that Hussein was lying

36:09in the first round before I won the money because I had the grand.

36:12I mean, I know for a fact she didn't have the zero because I sadly gifted that to share,

36:19but I'd like to know more about your sort of strong points in general knowledge.

36:25Things like sport, music, geography, those sort of things I can be quite good on.

36:31I think I've got that pop culture sort of my era. I mean, I got the Timothee Chalamet one quite quickly.

36:39I'm going to have to ask you for a decision, Richard.

36:42For me, it's based on the trust and where the cards have been a little bit too tight to the chest

36:49and maybe not being quite so open with the sharing of information and, you know, more sort of like

36:56modern celebrities. It's a weak point for me. Who are you going to choose, Richard?

37:03I would like to keep Asterix in the final. You're going to keep Asterix in the final.

37:07And commiserations to Dennis. Once again, you got so close. You've done so well this week.

37:13It's been so frustrating for you, but you've been a really good sport. Have you had a good week?

37:18Yeah, it's been a brilliant week. You've done yourself proud. You have, however,

37:21been cast out of the inner circle.

37:29Our final two. It's time for the cash builder. This is the last chance for Richard and Asterix

37:35to work together to add some money to their combined secret stash. Remember, I'm still not

37:41completely certain what money is left in the game, but here's a quick reminder of your money amounts

37:47for everyone at home. Okay, you are now playing together to add to your combined stash. I'm going

37:55to give you £100 for each correct answer, and you've got 60 seconds to get through as many as you can.

38:01But my advice to you is to say pass if you don't know, because I cannot move on until I get a right

38:06answer. Best of luck to you both. Richard, I'm going to start with you. Let's play.

38:11Which organ in the body does an electrocardiogram monitor?

38:19The heart. Correct. In 2024, Kyle Smith Bino took over as the presenter of the TV show The Great

38:27British What? Bake Off. No. Oh, pass.

38:31Sewing B. In which film does Leonardo DiCaprio play the character Jordan Belfort?

38:36The Wolf of Wall Street. Correct. Levi Strauss is famous for manufacturing jeans

38:41made from which cotton fabric? Denim. Correct. The Egyptian goddess Bastet is

38:46often depicted in the form of which domesticated animal? Cat. Yes. The 2024 UK top 10 single

38:53Apatah is by Bruno Mars and which Blackpink member?

39:01I'm not going to get it past. It's rosé. Which word can be used for a magical being,

39:05a string of brightly coloured bulbs and a small individual cake? Fairy. Correct.

39:10The towns of Luton and Dunstable are located in which historic English county?

39:19It was Bedfordshire. Oh, I wouldn't have got it anyways.

39:23Don't worry, it did really well. You answered five questions correctly,

39:27meaning you've added £500 onto your combined cash stash. Well done.

39:31Richard and Asterix had the chance to work together, but now the inner circle has one final test for them.

39:39It's time to play Split or Shaft.

39:44OK, everything has led to this point. Remember that you are playing for your combined cash total.

39:51I'm still not sure what you've both got hidden away. Only the viewers at home know what you are truly worth.

39:57We now have three possible outcomes. You can win together and half the cash, but only if you both decide to split.

40:04You can lose together and go home with nothing if you both choose to Shaft.

40:10Or if we see a split and a Shaft, the Shafter wins it all.

40:15Richard and Asterix, it is now time for you to have a little chat about how you would like to play this.

40:20Yes, I'm happy it's come to this point. I mean, I feel like we've trusted each other from the start.

40:25I trust that you've told the truth about the amount that you have. I think we're paying for quite

40:29a big amount of money to share. You know, I trust you. I think you're going to share with me.

40:34I think let's share it. Both go home winners.

40:36I believe that you have the £2,000. Worst case scenario, you lied, you got £1,000.

40:42We've been here, we've had a great day. And to go home with more than £2,500, you've got to be happy with that.

40:47Yeah, I'm more than happy with that. It's time to lock in your decisions.

41:01OK, Richard, please tell me how much was in your secret stash at the very start of this game?

41:08At the very start of the game, I had nothing. Amazing. And then you swapped with Shaft and received...

41:15£4,000. OK, brilliant.

41:18Asterix, what did you start with?

41:19I started the game with £1,000. That's how I knew Hussein was lying.

41:23OK. I've told the truth the whole time.

41:25And then, of course, you won the £1,000.

41:28In the first round, yeah.

41:29So you have £2,000. Indeed.

41:32As you said. Well, added to the £500 that you brought through from the cash builder,

41:38that means you're playing for a combined total of £6,500.

41:43What would you spend the money on, Richard?

41:45Well, my house is in a state of disrepair, so I think I'm not going to see any of it.

41:50The wife will have that spent on the back garden.

41:52Fantastic. Well, if you need me and Alan Carr to come and help you, we will.

41:57What would you spend the money on, Asterix?

41:59Enough to go somewhere warm and sunny for a bit.

42:01That's definitely fine. Maybe Malta.

42:04Somewhere sunny and a lot of drinks while we're there.

42:06Fantastic. OK.

42:08Well, it is time to reveal.

42:11If you have decided to split or shaft in a circle,

42:15will you please reveal today's decision?

42:17You little shafters!

42:36You little shafters!

42:40Oh, my gosh.

42:41You both decided to shaft, which means today's cash total has been chucked in the bin

42:47and you're both leaving with absolutely nothing.

42:49I knew it.

42:51Was that your game plan from the start, Richard?

42:53Uh, no.

42:56I knew you were going to do that.

42:58How were you going to play?

42:59I don't know. I was honestly going to split until the last minute.

43:02I just, something about your face when we were chatting.

43:05I just got the hint that you were not being truthful with me.

43:08Well, that's it.

43:10They are going home with no money at all.

43:13Who would you trust and how would you play the game?

43:16We'll see you next time here on The Inner Circle.

43:23We'll see you next time.
