00:18CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
00:24Hello, I'm Rommash Ranganathan, and welcome to this special Christmas edition of Parents Evening,
00:32the show where celebs team up with their parents and kids to win money for charity.
00:36I love Christmas. My family actually call me Santa, because they only ever see me once a year.
00:41Playing tonight, we have got comedian Josh Whittacombe and his dad, Tom.
00:47Dan Simotin, Magusi, and Amon Doodoo.
00:50And presenter George Lamb and his dad, acting legend Larry Lamb.
00:54CHEERING And also here tonight is my mum, Shanti Ranganathan.
01:03Mum has been dropping hints about what she wants for Christmas,
01:05but I'm not going to get a divorce and then marry a Sri Lankan woman. Sorry, Mum.
01:10Mum has been researching all of tonight's guests, and she comes up with searching difficult questions,
01:14like when she asked Lisa's parents why their turkey is so bland.
01:18You should try adding spices.
01:20Mum, what is something you found out for us today about our guests?
01:24One of our guests gave a life-size photo of themselves as a Christmas gift.
01:35What kind of narcissistic prick would give a life-size poster of themselves as a Christmas gift?
01:42Who was it?
01:43Who was it?
01:44Ah.
01:49So, who was the life-size photo of you for?
01:51My mum, it turns out.
01:52Yeah, exactly.
01:53Yeah, exactly.
01:54Yeah, we still laugh about that one.
01:56Yeah.
01:57Mum, who would you like a life-size photo of?
02:00You.
02:01I love that one.
02:03Will you give me one?
02:05Well, I will if it means I don't have to see you face-to-face.
02:07LAUGHTER
02:08Good luck tonight, everybody.
02:10Let's play Parents' Evening.
02:11APPLAUSE
02:12Parents, you have to bid on how many questions out of ten you think your child can guess
02:20right in a particular category.
02:22Whoever's mum or dad bids the highest will have to play.
02:25Meet the target, you get £100 for each correct answer.
02:28But, if you fall short, that money is split between the others instead.
02:33And to stop them influencing your bids, we're going to put your kids on the naughty step three
02:36feet behind you.
02:37So, Josh, Watsi and George, let's get you set for tonight's first question.
02:41Our first question is all about Christmas films.
02:52You are going to have to identify Christmas films based on the user review written on Letterboxd.
02:56We've actually got some reviews here of you guys.
03:00This is from the Gavin and Stacey Christmas Special.
03:02This says, Protect Larry Lamb, all costs.
03:04Five stars.
03:05It's nice, isn't it?
03:06I agree with that completely.
03:08Yeah, absolutely.
03:09This is from Josh's stand-up special.
03:11I love Josh, but his voice really gets on my nerves.
03:14LAUGHTER
03:16APPLAUSE
03:19Three stars?
03:21Yeah.
03:22That's not...
03:23You don't love someone and then give...
03:25I'll be honest.
03:26I'm listening now.
03:27They are right about my voice.
03:28Yeah, I mean, I was going to say, even with that, it is quite irritating.
03:30Yeah.
03:31This is from my stand-up special.
03:33Came for Romesh, stayed for Shanthi.
03:35Five stars.
03:36LAUGHTER
03:37Oh, well done on putting your own five-star review on TV.
03:39Well done, Romesh.
03:40LAUGHTER
03:42Doodoo, do you watch films at Christmas?
03:44Yes.
03:45Do you watch the Strictly Christmas Special?
03:47No.
03:48No, no, I get it.
03:50I get it.
03:51Why would you?
03:52I mean, it's not even the proper Strictly, though, is it?
03:53It's just Josh dressed as a penguin looking like a twat.
03:54He was great, though.
03:55He was great.
03:56APPLAUSE
03:57He did a good job.
03:58Moxie gave me a nine.
03:59Yeah.
04:00And it was sincere.
04:01It was nice.
04:02I thought it was sincere until you said that.
04:03No!
04:04LAUGHTER
04:05Josh, your face in that photo.
04:08It looks like it's the first time you've been allowed outside.
04:10LAUGHTER
04:11I'm so delighted to be a penguin.
04:13LAUGHTER
04:14Oh, so it's a good voice when you do it.
04:15Is that OK?
04:16I used it on my stand-up special.
04:17You should have watched it five stars.
04:18LAUGHTER
04:19OK, parents, it is time to bid.
04:21Now, when Mum tried this early, it was the first time you said it was sincere.
04:24It was sincere.
04:25It was nice.
04:26I thought it was sincere until you said that.
04:27No!
04:28LAUGHTER
04:29Josh, your face in that photo.
04:30It looks like it's the first time you've been allowed outside.
04:32LAUGHTER
04:33Just, I'm so delighted to be a penguin.
04:35Oh, so it's a good voice when you do it.
04:36Is that OK?
04:37I used it on my stand-up special.
04:38You should have watched it five stars.
04:40LAUGHTER
04:43She scored zero.
04:45Yeah.
04:46It's true.
04:47Tom, you're going to be opening the bids.
04:48How many do you think Josh can get?
04:50I reckon he'll get at least three.
04:54Three.
04:55OK.
04:56Dudu, do you think Motsi can get more than three?
04:58I would...
05:00LAUGHTER
05:01LAUGHTER
05:02Larry, do you think George can get more than three?
05:06Yeah, I'll go for four.
05:08Four, OK.
05:09Tom?
05:10Yeah, I'll go five.
05:12OK.
05:13Nice.
05:14Larry, Tom's very confidently said five.
05:16What do you think?
05:17I'm out.
05:18Oh!
05:19Oh!
05:20That means playing for £500 is Josh!
05:23CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
05:32Hello, Josh.
05:33Hello, Romesh.
05:34OK.
05:35Out of ten, your dad thinks you can guess five Christmas movies from their review on Letterboxd.
05:39You can give multiple guesses.
05:40Yeah.
05:41You can pass as many times as you want, but you only have 90 seconds.
05:44Cool.
05:45Mum's going to be timing the round.
05:46I would.
05:4790 seconds, Josh.
05:48You've got five to get.
05:49Good luck.
05:50Off you go.
05:51Home Alone.
05:52A small child and a duo of criminals attempt to brutally murder each other.
05:55Home Alone.
05:56Four and a half stars.
05:57It's correct.
05:58Well done.
05:59Crap Actually.
06:00Two stars.
06:01Love Actually.
06:02It is Love Actually.
06:03It's a wonderful movie.
06:04It's a wonderful movie.
06:05It's a wonderful movie.
06:06It's absolutely correct.
06:07Who is taking care of Jude Law's children while he's having bad sex with Cameron Diaz?
06:12The Holiday.
06:13Three stars.
06:14It is the Holiday.
06:15Well done.
06:16You've got one to get.
06:17Tim Allen kills Santa Claus and takes his job.
06:19Three stars.
06:20The Santa Claus.
06:21It is the Santa Claus!
06:22Josh Minnigan!
06:23Oh my God!
06:24Come on!
06:25Yes, Josh!
06:26Yes!
06:27You score five.
06:28Give it back for Josh!
06:38Josh, incredible work.
06:39Was that celebration proportionate to naming five Christmas movies?
06:42It's you to decide.
06:43What's your favourite Christmas film, Mum?
06:46Home Alone.
06:47What about Love Actually?
06:49Love Actually?
06:50What is that?
06:51Do you know the film where Hugh Grant is the Prime Minister?
06:55I don't like Hugh Grant.
07:00Why don't you like Hugh Grant?
07:02It's very rude.
07:03He can be popular, but he should learn manners.
07:09Mum?
07:10Yes.
07:11It's for you as well.
07:12For me?
07:13What?
07:14For me?
07:15Yes!
07:16Someone is standing up to him.
07:17Yes, Mummy!
07:18Yes!
07:19Yes, Mummy!
07:20Thank you, darling.
07:22I love your dance.
07:23Whoo!
07:24OK.
07:25Josh, Motsi and George, let's get you set for your next question.
07:30OK.
07:31OK, this time your question is all about chocolate.
07:45Sometimes people aren't sure whether a chocolate is vegan or not.
07:47The rule I use is, if you're enjoying it, it's not vegan.
07:51LAUGHTER
07:52What you're going to have to do for this one is you have to name the chocolate bar represented
07:55by the picture.
07:56For example, this one, Mum.
07:57What chocolate is that?
07:59Lion bar?
08:00Lion bar is absolutely right.
08:02Yeah, I mean, to be fair, you just have to say what it's in the picture.
08:04It's a big face.
08:05How can I miss it?
08:06OK.
08:07Parents, it's time to bid.
08:10Now, when Mum tried this earlier, she scored two.
08:13Dudu, you're going to be opening the bids.
08:15How many do you think Motsi can get?
08:18Two.
08:19OK, Larry, Dudu's bid two.
08:21How many do you think George can get?
08:22Five.
08:23Five!
08:24Oh, yay!
08:25Come on!
08:29Tom.
08:31I'll go six.
08:32OK.
08:33Yay!
08:34Dudu, six is the bid to bid.
08:36No?
08:37I'm out.
08:38OK.
08:39Fair enough.
08:40Larry?
08:41Seven.
08:42Oh!
08:43OK.
08:44I like this.
08:45OK, Tom.
08:46This is a battle now.
08:47I'm out.
08:48Oh.
08:49No!
08:51So that means playing for £700, it's George!
09:00Hello, George.
09:01How are you?
09:02I'm very well.
09:03How are you?
09:04I'm good.
09:05I've suddenly felt a lot less attractive.
09:06OK, so how do you feel about this round?
09:09I like chocolate a lot.
09:11Yeah.
09:12But, yeah, I feel confident.
09:13Oh, God.
09:14When you looked at me and said I like chocolate a lot, I felt...
09:16Yeah, yeah, yeah.
09:17LAUGHTER
09:18LAUGHTER
09:19LAUGHTER
09:20Julie, what I feel about is I could be that chocolate, George.
09:23LAUGHTER
09:24OK, so, your dad thinks you can name seven chocolates from the ten clues provided.
09:30OK.
09:31George, good luck to you.
09:32Off you go.
09:33You've got seven to get.
09:35What chocolate is this?
09:36Picnic.
09:37Is correct.
09:38WHISPER.
09:39WHISPER.
09:40WHISPER is correct.
09:41WHISPER.
09:42WHISPER is correct.
09:43What's this one?
09:44Yorkey.
09:45Is correct.
09:46WHISPER.
09:47What's this one?
09:48WHISPER.
09:49Er...
09:50Pass.
09:51What is that?
09:52OK, let's have the next one.
09:53What's this one?
09:54Planet...
09:55No, that's planet.
09:56That's Earth.
09:57We don't have a pick.
09:58We don't have a chocolate called planet or Earth.
09:59Moon.
10:00Milky...
10:01Milky Way.
10:02What is the chocolate bar called that's got something to do with the moon?
10:04Well, I can't give any options.
10:05I'd love to.
10:06Yeah?
10:07Pass, pass, pass, pass.
10:08It's a dime bar.
10:09Yes, correct.
10:10Yeah.
10:11OK, let's go to the next one.
10:12M&M.
10:13Four M&Ms.
10:14M&Ms.
10:15Yes.
10:16You've got two to get.
10:17What's this one?
10:18Bucket of treasure, chips, chips, chips, chips, chips, chips, chips, chips, chips, chips, chips,

10:42It's a red bus.
10:44Yeah.
10:45Big bus.
10:46It's a metro line by Double Decker.
10:48Yes!
10:49You've got one to get, you've got one to get, one to get!
10:51I've got one to go, I've got one to go. Where is this? What are you looking at?
10:54Flake! Yes!
10:55CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
10:56You got it!
10:57CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
10:59Congratulations, you scored seven winnings.
11:00Give it up for George!
11:08Oh, that was exhilarating.
11:09Larry, what did you think of George's performance, sir?
11:11Sweet.
11:15There's three questions you missed, George. Let's have a look.
11:19There's this one. Anybody got any ideas?
11:20Time out.
11:21It is time out, yeah.
11:22I thought it was ripped bastard, but it's not.
11:25Let's have a look at the next one.
11:27That is...
11:28Mockerball.
11:29Mars!
11:30Oh, my God!

11:37OK, this one, this is a tough one. Anybody?
11:40Bounty!
11:40Bounty! It's Bounty.
11:43There you go.
11:44Give it up for George, though. What a performance.
11:46CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
11:47All right, Mum, there are two questions in.
11:49What are the scores, please?
11:50Give it a bit of drama, a little bit of Christmas pizzazz.
11:52Like drama, but how do you want me to say it?
11:55Like, just give it a little bit of body movement, you know.
11:57Like that?
11:57You got this, and you got that, and we're done!
11:59LAUGHTER
12:01Good luck to you.
12:02Totsie and Dudu...
12:03Yeah.
12:04Yeah.
12:05..nothing at the moment, but you will get some more.
12:08LAUGHTER
12:09I'm sorry.
12:10APPLAUSE
12:12Josh and Tom...
12:13Yeah.
12:14..500 pounds.
12:15CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
12:18Wow, wow, wow.
12:19George and Larry, 700 pounds.
12:22CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
12:24Well done, guys. Time for a break now.
12:26Remember, family is the greatest gift.
12:28Unless they got you a PlayStation.
12:30See you in a bit.
12:31CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
12:32CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
12:45Welcome back to Parents Evening.
12:47Kids, remember, you can't influence your parents
12:49during these questions.
12:50So, once again, let's get set for our next one.
12:52MUSIC
12:59This time, your question is all about board games.
13:03What you're going to have to do is name the board game
13:05from its official tagline.
13:07For example, skill game where you're the doctor.
13:10What board game is that?
13:12I haven't got a clue.
13:14LAUGHTER
13:15OK, it's not.
13:16That does sound like a board game, but that's not the correct answer.
13:18Yeah.
13:19It's actually Operation.
13:20It's a great game.
13:21Oh.
13:22Slightly more difficult to play nowadays
13:23because of NHS waiting times.
13:24LAUGHTER
13:26Larry, do you think George will be any good at this?
13:28Yeah.
13:29Is he competitive when you're playing board games?
13:30Very.
13:31Very, OK.
13:32Yeah, it gets competitive at our house, doesn't it, Mum?
13:34You come over every Christmas, play a bit of Uno.
13:36I'm rubbish at it.
13:37Yeah, well, you don't know that every year...
13:39You always mention I haven't improved at all.
13:42LAUGHTER
13:43So why don't you teach me how to play?
13:45Mum, I teach you every year.
13:47Every year!
13:48I say to you...
13:49You walk me around.
13:50You walk me around.
13:51I'm just going to watch a couple of games because I can't get my head around it.
13:53Yeah.
13:54Then we start playing.
13:55And then you go, should I put a two down?
13:56No, you can't put a two down!
13:57LAUGHTER
13:58You cannot have any time to tell you!
13:59How can I learn like that?
14:01Because...
14:02This is what I said.
14:03You should learn manners.
14:04LAUGHTER
14:07It's parents evening!
14:09Yeah.
14:10OK, parents, it is time to bid.
14:14When Mum tried this earlier, she scored zero.
14:17OK, Larry, you're going to be opening the bids.
14:19How many of these do you think George can get?
14:23Five.
14:24Oh!
14:25That is a great opening bid.
14:27Tom?
14:28Six.
14:29You!
14:30OK, Dudu?
14:31What do you think?
14:32You see, these gentlemen, they know that my child can get more, so they say...
14:39LAUGHTER
14:40So I'm going out.
14:41You're out!
14:42Out!
14:43LAUGHTER
14:44APPLAUSE
14:45That is one of the most incredible justifications I've ever heard.
14:50Yeah.
14:51These gentlemen know my child can get more, so I'm out.
14:54LAUGHTER
14:57OK, Larry, it's six to beat.
14:59What do you think?
15:00Seven.
15:01Ooh!
15:06So, it's a bit of seven to beat.
15:08You seem quite stressed out.
15:09What's wrong?
15:10That's very edgy, isn't it?
15:12LAUGHTER
15:19I'll go eight.
15:26This is...this is great gaming.
15:28OK, Larry.
15:30Tom has bid eight.
15:31Do you want to push him further?
15:37Nine.
15:38LAUGHTER
15:42APPLAUSE
15:43OK, Tom.
15:44I'm out.
15:46LAUGHTER
15:47That means that playing for £900, it's George!
15:50CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
15:59So, out of ten, your dad thinks you can name nine board games from their slogan.
16:03George, are you ready?
16:04I'm ready.
16:05OK, let's go.
16:06Good luck.
16:07APPLAUSE

16:50Your life, your way.
16:51Your life, your way.

17:05Pass, pass, pass, pass.
17:06OK, let's have a look at the next one.
17:07The saddle stacking game with a moody mule.
17:11Ah...
17:12Buckaroo.
17:13Is correct!
17:15OK, we've got two to get.
17:16The game of quick draw.
17:22Two left to get.
17:23That kind of thing.
17:24Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
17:25I don't know.
17:26What, like, what kind of draw is that?
17:27Well, I can give you nothing beyond that.
17:29What's the next one?
17:30The other one?
17:31Let's have a look at the next one.
17:33Your life, your way.
17:36Awww!
17:37Bad luck.
17:38You couldn't reach nine, which means the money is getting split
17:40between the others.
17:41Let's hear it for George!
17:42CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
17:49Let's have a look at the ones you didn't get.
17:51The game of quick draw is Pictionary.
17:54Oh!
17:55Yeah.
17:56Your life, your way.
17:57It's probably the toughest one.
17:58It's the game of life.
17:59No.
18:00And the last one, the classic barrel of last for all the family.
18:04Josh, got any idea?
18:05Is that one where you put the things on and the guy pops out the barrel?
18:08Yes.
18:09Pop-up pirate.
18:10Wow.
18:11OK, Mum, could you give us a score, please?
18:13Of course I can.
18:14A little bit of Christmas pizzazz, please, if you don't mind.
18:16Motsi and Dudu?
18:17Yes.
18:18450 pounds!
18:19Yay!
18:20Yay!
18:21Yay!
18:22Yay!
18:23Yay!
18:24George and Larry, 700 pounds!
18:27Yay!
18:28Yay!
18:29Yay!
18:30Yay!
18:31My God!
18:32Josh and Tom, 955 pounds!
18:35Woo!
18:36Woo!
18:37Woo!
18:38So, basically, Motsi and Dudu, you benefited from Larry sort of getting overexcited with the
18:45beans.
18:46We're happy.
18:47We're happy about that.
18:48OK.
18:49not be given any clues, OK? Instead, you'll be given a category and you have to list as many
18:53correct answers as you can in that category. Plus, every correct answer is now worth £200.
19:01There's nothing more Christmassy than suddenly everything being twice the price. So,
19:05Josh, Motsey and George, let's get you set for the next question.
19:08Your next category is Christmas dinner. You have to guess all the components of the traditional
19:21Christmas dinner at Wetherspoon. By the way, just so you know, from this point on, if any of you say
19:27an answer before the game begins, it will be considered cheating, I'm afraid, in which case
19:31the answer will be removed and I'll take £100 off your total. And I might take away £100 if Josh
19:36says anything because he really is bringing up my inner bully.
19:40Dudu, what's a South African Christmas meal like? South Africa is, it is summer because
19:48in summer, you stay outside, we do brides. And when I get here in Europe, Christmas was inside.
19:58It's cold. It's different, isn't it? I mean, that's a really nice way of saying Christmas here is
20:02a shit. No. LAUGHTER
20:07Dudu, Motsey's not played yet because your favourite phrase tonight has been, I'm out.
20:12LAUGHTER
20:14Do you think this might be the one that she could step up?
20:16Yes. Yes. OK, well, let's see. Parents, it's time to bid.
20:20OK, it's not that much of a flex. All right, Tom, it's your turn to bid first.
20:37How many do you think Josh can get?
20:38Four. Four.
20:40Four. Dudu, what are you thinking?
20:41I'm out.
20:42LAUGHTER
20:44APPLAUSE
20:53Is it right, have you flown all the way for South Africa to play this tonight?
20:56Yes. Yes.
20:57OK. And you just don't want Motsey to get involved at all? No, I understand.
21:01LAUGHTER
21:03Larry, Tom's bid four, what do you think?
21:07Five. Five, OK. Could this be another duel again? Tom?
21:10Six.
21:12Oh. Larry?
21:15I'm out.
21:18OK, well, that means that playing for £1,200 is Josh!
21:22CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
21:26So, your dad thinks you can name six savouring components that are listed in the traditional
21:33Christmas dinner at JD Wetherspin, otherwise known as spoons.
21:37Multiple guesses are allowed, but if you take too long without giving a correct answer,
21:40you will time out.
21:41OK.
21:42Off you go.
21:43OK, turkey.
21:45It's there.
21:47Gravy.
21:48Gravy's there.
21:49Carrots.
21:50Stuffing.
21:51Carrots is there, yeah.
21:53Potatoes.
21:54We need more specific than that.
21:55Roast potatoes.
21:57No.
21:57Boiled potatoes.
21:58No.
21:58Mashed potatoes?
21:59Yes.
22:00Fuck off.
22:03Sorry, I thought the same, I thought the same.
22:05Bread sauce, um, uh, sprouts.
22:08No, no.
22:09Carrots, chicken, uh, beef, um, oh, God, uh, stuffing, no.
22:15No.
22:16Um, and, uh, stuffing.
22:20I've already got stuffing.
22:21Oh, no.
22:25Oh, no.
22:26Who was it?
22:26Josh, I'm so sorry.
22:28Bad luck.
22:28The money's getting split between the others.
22:31Give it up for Josh.
22:33That was tough.
22:38What would you have gone for?
22:40OK, this is the full list.
22:44And I think you'll find it pretty offensive.
22:45Oh, do you know what?
22:48I don't hate myself after that.
22:50First of all, can I just say, pigs in blankets,
22:53getting a bit of pig, then wrapping it in a bit of pig.
22:56I mean, absolutely taking the piss there.
22:59Motsu, how are you feeling about not being put up for any of the rounds so far?
23:02I feel the ambitious person in myself is screaming.
23:06Yeah.
23:07But on the other side, I'm just like, you know, she protects me.
23:11I protect her.
23:12You guys are serving.
23:14LAUGHTER
23:15More Dublin scores!
23:16Woo!
23:17APPLAUSE
23:20OK, Mum, what's that done to the scores, please?
23:23Josh and Tom, £950, because you know why.
23:30Motsu and Dudu, £1,050.
23:34CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
23:38I'd love it if the first time Motsu had to answer was in the final.
23:41LAUGHTER
23:43And George and Larry, £1,300, guys!
23:48CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
23:50OK, it's time for a festive break, which in my house means
23:53Lisa asking me to sleep in the garage.
23:55See you in a bit.
23:56CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
24:10Welcome back to the Parents' Evening Christmas Special,
24:12proving family is a gift, but it's still worth keeping the receipt.
24:17OK, Josh, Motsu and George, let's get you set for your next question.
24:20APPLAUSE
24:27Your next category is greetings cards.
24:30Oh!
24:31You're going to have to name the themes for cards available at Card Factory.
24:34Larry, who's a better gifter, you or George?
24:37Bearing in mind you give gifts of yourself, but...
24:39LAUGHTER
24:40Well, you know, it's certainly not me.
24:42I'm rather renowned in the family as spending 73 years getting a present
24:49for George that was right, but of course, you know...
24:53I'm 45.
24:54I know.
24:55LAUGHTER
24:57APPLAUSE
25:03I was 73, so it was 41 years in getting him a birthday.
25:08Don't forget him a present that was right.
25:10LAUGHTER
25:12Unfortunately, you've said one of the answers.
25:15Oh!
25:16Which means that I've got to take £100 off...
25:18No!
25:19No!
25:20Do you mean, no, that's the rules of the game.
25:21He said birthday.
25:24Tom, was Josh very grateful for the gifts he received?
25:27Oh, I don't know.
25:28I don't know.
25:29Why, cos you didn't give him any?
25:31Er, well, we don't show a lot of emotion in our family, Romesh.
25:34Oh, really?
25:37How often do you tell Josh you love him?
25:40Er, I don't think I've ever told him that.
25:44I'm going to be honest with you, Tom.
25:45I know it's weird, but I'm on your side.
25:51OK, parents, it's time to bid.
25:55When Mum tried this earlier, she scored six.
25:58Ooh.
25:59Ooh!
26:00Doody, you're going to be opening the bids?
26:02Yes.
26:03How many do you think Motsy can get?
26:05Three.
26:05Three?
26:06Yes.
26:06OK.
26:07CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
26:12Larry?
26:13Four.
26:14Four.
26:15Tom, what are you thinking?
26:16Five.
26:18Doodoo?
26:18Out. I'm out.
26:19You're out.
26:26Larry, five is the bid to be.
26:28I'll go six.
26:29Six.
26:30Tom?
26:31I never thought you'd be like this, Larry.
26:40I had a whole different impression of what you were like.
26:42LAUGHTER
26:44So, what did you think he was like?
26:45How has he differed?
26:46I thought you'd be like that guy off Gavin and Stacey.
26:48Yeah.
26:49LAUGHTER
26:50What are you thinking then, Tom?
26:59I'll go seven.
27:00OK.
27:01Larry?
27:03I'll go eight.
27:04Oh.
27:05Oh.
27:05Oh.
27:06Oh, oh.
27:06Oh, oh, oh.
27:07Tom?
27:07Tom.
27:12Ah!
27:14Um, nine.
27:15Nine.
27:16CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
27:21Larry?
27:21Tom didn't think you were going to be like this.
27:23LAUGHTER
27:2510.
27:25Ten. Ten? OK.
27:27APPLAUSE
27:29Ten?
27:31I'm going to go eleven.
27:33CHEERING
27:35OK, Larry, the bid is currently at eleven.
27:38Erm...
27:42I'm out.
27:44APPLAUSE
27:46You are out.
27:48APPLAUSE
27:49OK.
27:51That means that playing for £2,200, it's Josh!
28:03OK, Josh, you're really keen for your dad to push up the bids,
28:06weren't you?
28:07I'll be honest, I never thought I'd see my dad
28:09in a dick-swinging contest with Larry Lamb.
28:11LAUGHTER
28:13So your dad thinks you can name eleven reasons
28:15for giving someone a card according to the card factory.
28:17Multiple guesses are allowed, but if you take too long
28:19without giving a correct answer, you will time out.
28:21We need eleven.
28:22OK, good luck to you, Josh.
28:25Off you go whenever you're ready.
28:26Valentine's Day.
28:27Valentine's...

28:59Well done, Josh.
29:00Congratulations, Josh.
29:01You scored eleven winning year 2,200.
29:02Give it up for Josh.
29:03Tom, that must make you feel like you really, really love Josh.
29:18I'm really proud of him and I love him really a lot.
29:20Oh!

38:21CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
38:23Congratulations, Josh and Tom.
38:25You have made it through to the final!
38:27CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
38:29George, how do you feel it went for you tonight?
38:34Dad's been kicking himself the whole way about the whole greeting card thing.
38:37You know what I mean?
38:38That's the last ten minutes.
38:39He's like, you could have done much better than that.
38:41LAUGHTER
38:42Motsy, how do you feel the game went for you tonight?
38:45I think we did well.
38:46Yeah.
38:47We connected.
38:48Yeah.
38:49Yeah.
38:50I'm proud of her.
38:51She came all the way from Africa for you.
38:52Yes.
38:53APPLAUSE
38:54We have got to take a break now.
38:59Join us in a bit to see if Josh and Tom can double their money in our final round.
39:03I'm very tense because if they win it, we can only afford one car for me and Mum to share home.
39:07What a nightmare.
39:08See you in a bit, guys.
39:09CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
39:24Welcome back to the Parents Evening Christmas Special, where some parents are so disappointed
39:28in their offspring, you'd have thought they'd have married Meghan Markle.
39:31LAUGHTER
39:33Josh and Tom are making it through to the final.
39:35You have secured your prize for charity.
39:37How much have they made, Mum?
39:38£4,750.
39:40Nice.
39:41CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
39:44But, succeeding this round, we will double that, bringing the total to what, Mum?
39:48£9,500.
39:50Wow!
39:51CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
39:55Here is how it works.
39:56You're going to see a board of 12 possible answers, but only five of them are correct.
40:00To double your jackpot, all you have to do is identify all five.
40:03If you pick three wrong answers, I'm afraid you lose a round, but you do leave with your own
40:07original jackpot of £4,750.
40:11Tom, you are going to be picking the category.
40:13Your options are Christmas Carols, Winter Olympics and Christmas Adverts.
40:20What are you thinking?
40:21You know what?
40:22I'm going to go with Christmas Adverts.
40:24Christmas Adverts.
40:26Josh and Tom, for the last time, let's play Parents Evening!
40:30APPLAUSE
40:31Josh, how happy are you with the category that your dad's chosen?
40:42I've chosen the same, but they're all tough.
40:45What you have to do is you've got to name five titles of John Lewis Christmas Adverts, OK?
40:52Here are the possible answers.
40:54The owl and the pussycat.
40:56The bear and the hare.
40:58The ass and the beaver.
41:00Monty the python.
41:02Moz the monster.
41:03Romesh the reindeer.
41:05The space oddity.
41:07The lightning rod.
41:09The man on the moon.
41:11Buster the boxer.
41:13The red herring.
41:15And Edgar the dragon.
41:17OK.
41:18So, five of those are titles of John Lewis Adverts and seven aren't.
41:22When you're ready, give me your first answer.
41:25I'm presuming you know none of them?
41:27You're correct.
41:28There.
41:36So, Josh, what are you thinking?
41:39I remember the bear and the hare.
41:40That's a bear that's asleep in a cave and the hare buys it a bear.
41:44Is it an alarm clock and Lily Allen's the music?
41:47The bear and the hare.
41:48Let's lock that in.
41:49Is that a Christmas ad?
41:51That is correct.
41:55What are you going for next?
41:59Any ones that you're certain of?
42:01Yeah.
42:02I remember Moz the monster being on sale in John the Lewis.
42:05John the Lewis.
42:06That's what you call it when you come into money.
42:12I'll just pop it over to John the Lewis.
42:16So, Moz the monster was in John the Lewis.
42:21OK, let's lock in Moz the monster.
42:23Was Moz the monster in Christmas ad?
42:26Yes, it was.
42:31APPLAUSE
42:34You have got three to get.
42:36There was a weird bloke on the moon with a telescope.
42:39Do you remember him?
42:40He was quite creepy.
42:42Man on the moon.
42:43OK.
42:44I think that must be that one.
42:45Tom, you agree with that?
42:46Totally.
42:47Yeah.
42:48Let's lock in the man on the moon.
42:50Is the man on the moon a genuine John Lewis Christmas ad?
42:57It is.
42:58Well done.
43:02OK, two to get.
43:03Yeah, I think there's one about a boxer dog that wants to play on the trampoline.
43:08Mm-hm.
43:09So, I think that must be Buster the Boxer.
43:11OK.
43:12Buster the Boxer.
43:13Let's lock that in.
43:14Is that a genuine Christmas ad?
43:19Yeah.
43:20It is!
43:21Right.
43:22Right.
43:23So, we know some of those aren't real.
43:26OK, so you're one away from doubling your jackpot here.
43:29Which are the ones you definitely are just out of the question?
43:31I don't The Owl and the Pussycat because that's a children's story.
43:34So, Owl and the Pussycat's out.
43:35Ass and the Beaver, Romesh the Reindeer.
43:37Yeah.
43:38Monty the Python feels like a kind of copyright problem.
43:41Mm-hm.
43:42So, I don't think...
43:43So, I think it's one of the last four.
43:45Those bottom ones.
43:46So, Space Oddity...
43:47It's not going to be the Red Herring because that's a joke in itself, right?
43:49Yeah.
43:50So, should we go with the lightning rod?
43:51Because I just don't think they'd make up the lightning rod.
43:54You want to go with the lightning rod?
43:55OK, let's lock in the lightning rod.
43:57If this is right, you're doubling your jackpot.
44:01I'm sorry.
44:02The lightning rod is, er...
44:03It's actually a manscaping style according to Wilkinson Sword.
44:16LAUGHTER
44:17OK.
44:18So, you've got one wrong.
44:21Three wrong and you're out.
44:22What are you thinking now?
44:23Oh, suddenly Monty the Python's drawing me in.
44:26Mm.
44:27Is there only one more right answer here?
44:29There's only one more correct one, yeah.
44:32I think the dragon or the python.
44:35I agree.
44:37Monty the Python.
44:38OK, let's lock in Monty the Python.
44:41Is Monty the Python a genuine Christmas ad?
44:52Oh!
44:53I'm sorry.
44:54Monty the Penguin.
44:55Oh, it was, yeah!
44:57Whatever you choose now, you're either doubling or you're out.
45:00OK.
45:01Because if it's right, you're doubling your jackpot.
45:03If it's wrong, you're out of the game.
45:04We took it to the edge.
45:05You took it right to the edge?
45:06Edgar the Dragon, mate.
45:08Oh.
45:09I think it'll be Edgar the Dragon, Monash.
45:11OK.
45:12Oh.
45:13So, thank you, Tom.
45:16Let's lock in Edgar the Dragon.
45:18Is Edgar the Dragon a genuine Christmas ad?
45:20For Christmas.
45:21Come on.
45:27Yeah!
45:28Congratulations!
45:29You doubled your jackpot to £9,500!
45:43What charity are you donating the money to?
45:45The Lilly Foundation, which is a small charity that helps children with mitochondrial disease
45:50and families that are affected by it.
45:51Ah, a fantastic cause.
45:52Give it up for Josh and Tom!
45:53APPLAUSE
45:54That is all for tonight.
45:55Thank you to my guests, Monty and Voodoo Mamusi!
45:56George and Larry Lamb!
45:57And Josh and Tom Widdicombe!
45:58Thank you so much for watching.
45:59Now, if you enjoy these families spending time together, you can go back to ignoring yours.
46:03Have a great Christmas.
46:04Say goodbye, Mum.
46:05Bye-bye, everybody.
46:06Merry Christmas!
46:07APPLAUSE
46:08APPLAUSE
46:09APPLAUSE
46:10APPLAUSE
46:11And now, if you want to come back together, you can go back to ignoring yours.
46:12Have a great Christmas.
46:13Say goodbye, Mum.
46:14Bye-bye, everybody.
