00:00Hey everybody, we've made it through the week.
00:11Who wants to see a trophy being given out?
00:13Even if it's just this trophy here, of course we all do.
00:16The final of this week's House of Games.
00:18Still no nearer to knowing who's winning that trophy.
00:21It'll be one of these four people.
00:22Let's meet them for one final time.
00:24They are Griff Rhys-Jones.
00:26Tasha Glory, Alexandra Mardell, and John Kay.
00:34Hey everybody.
00:36First thing we've got to do is look at the weekly leaderboard.
00:38OK, before we do anything else, we know it's Double Points Friday,
00:41so there's eight for a win, six for second, four for third.
00:44So John, Griff and Alexandra, you've all got a chance of winning this trophy.
00:49John, you are in pole position.
00:51Tasha, you might not win the trophy.
00:52That's OK.
00:53You can definitely win the day.
00:54I got the message when you said everyone else's names, but...
00:57Yes, exactly, and I didn't...
00:58I just thought, either I say their names and then talk to you,
01:01or we just skirt over it.
01:02But now you've drawn more attention to it, I feel bad.
01:05It's OK, I mean, I have a little medal or something, but at least try it.
01:09Exactly, but also we've enjoyed watching the three of them quiz all week, right?
01:12Yeah.
01:12Yeah, it's fun to see.
01:14John, you're in pole position.
01:16I guess you're not comfortable with being in pole position.
01:18I've got everything to lose.
01:19You've got everything, you know, that trophy.
01:21You've got one hand on it, but it could be grasped away.
01:24Now, Alexandra, you won on Monday.
01:26Yeah.
01:26If you were to win today, you could win that trophy.
01:29Yeah, come back.
01:30What is it you did on Monday that you think you've lacked since?
01:33I don't know.
01:34I think I need to be quicker on the buzzer.
01:36I'm just not as fast.
01:37Yeah, John's pretty quick, isn't he?
01:38Yeah.
01:39He knows stuff and he's pretty quick.
01:41Griff, just one point off the lead.
01:43Just one point off the lead.
01:44If you were to win today, that's it, you've won the trophy.
01:46Right.
01:46How do you feel about that?
01:48I feel that's an impossible task.
01:50To win a day?
01:51Well, because John has got into his stride and he's so quick on that buzzer.
01:54You've already won a day, though.
01:55You know you can do it.
01:56You know it's not impossible.
01:57Well, I'm a pessimist by nature.
01:59Oh.
02:00So, Tasha, you may not be able to win the trophy,
02:02but you can still win a daily prize and I would love that
02:05because everyone else has won one and I want you to
02:07because you've got good points all week,
02:09like you've been racking up the points.
02:11So maybe today could be the day.
02:13Shall we take a look at the prizes?
02:14Let's have a look.
02:15OK.
02:17These are what's up for grabs.
02:18We've got the recipe book stand,
02:20we have got sunglasses, sliders,
02:23there's a compost bin
02:24and there is the wheelie luggage.
02:27Any of those you fancy, Tasha?
02:28I love the sliders.
02:30I think they're so cool.
02:32Yes.
02:32Especially on holiday,
02:33I can wear a bit of like a cool red outfit,
02:35got the whole fashion look together.
02:37Perfect.
02:37The red sliders will go to Tasha.
02:39Alexandra, what would you go for?
02:40I quite like the cookbook stand,
02:43you know, to go with my chopping board that I won on Monday.
02:44Oh, that's classy.
02:45That is classy.
02:46Matching pair.
02:47Matching prizes.
02:48John?
02:49I'm going on holiday right after this
02:51and I want to walk through the airport with that suitcase.
02:54Yeah, lovely.
02:55I can see that.
02:56Has he got like a 3D quiff of yours going on like this?
02:59It is 3D.
03:00A lot of thought's gone into that.
03:01A lot of money's gone into that.
03:02Oh, my God.
03:02They cost a fortune.
03:05So over $40,000 you'd pay for that retail,
03:08but you could win it for free.
03:09Griff, what would you go for?
03:10Compost bin.
03:11Yeah, there we go.
03:12Of course.
03:13Absolutely.
03:14Listen, man of the people.
03:15What a week of quizzing we've had so far.
03:17Everyone scoring points.
03:18Three separate winners.
03:19There can only be one trophy winner, though.
03:21Shall we get on and do it?
03:22Yes, please.
03:22Here we go.
03:23Friday's House of Games.
03:24It's the final.
03:24Double points Friday.
03:25Our first round is...
03:29Highbrow, lowbrow.
03:30I'm going to go along the line.
03:31I'm going to ask each of you two questions.
03:34One will be a very highbrow question.
03:35One will be a lowbrow question.
03:37They will have the same answer.
03:39I'll give you two points if you get it from the highbrow question.
03:41One point if you get it from the lowbrow question.
03:43Griff, we start with you.
03:44Yes.
03:45Are you getting that?
03:46I do, of course, yes.
03:47Of course, sorry.
03:48Well, if I'm going to start, I just want to check.
03:51You're going to ask two questions.
03:52One a highbrow and one a lowbrow.
03:53But not two questions, because I have to choose.
03:55Do I know whether I want to go high or low?
03:57No.
03:58Oh.
03:58No, I'm going to ask you them both.
04:00I see.
04:00They both have the same answer.
04:02I understand.
04:02That's what I'm saying.
04:03Okay.
04:04And you'll get two points if you get highbrow.
04:05All right.
04:06You sure you don't want to start with that, you know?
04:07Griff, here is your highbrow question for two points.
04:14Which 19th century leader who was appointed a pasha of Egypt in 1805
04:19made considerable reforms to the Egyptian army and irrigation system?
04:26Is this Gordon?
04:28Gordon.
04:29Okay.
04:29Of cartoon.
04:29Go for Gordon.
04:30And then we'll look at lowbrow.
04:32You can change it if you want, or stick with it.
04:33So we're going to go for Gordon.
04:35I'll move to Gordon.
04:43Oh.
04:45Well, it must be Muhammad Ali.
04:47Must be answering both those questions.
04:48Is it Muhammad Ali?
04:49It is.
04:50Answers both those questions.
04:51You get a point.
04:52Nicely done.
04:54Tasha, a highbrow question for you for two points.
04:56Here we go.
04:57Here we go.
04:58Here we go.
04:59The Norman Rockwell painting Playing Party Games,
05:03which was the cover image of a 1919 issue of the Saturday Evening Post,
05:08shows two people holding what item?
05:12I have no idea.
05:14Do you want to go straight to lowbrow?
05:15Yeah.
05:16Let's do that.
05:16Straight to lowbrow.
05:17Here's your lowbrow question.
05:18Which object containing a paper hat and a joke
05:23is traditionally pulled on the 25th of December?
05:27Oh, a cracker.
05:28A cracker?
05:29Yes.
05:29Absolutely right.
05:30Answers both those questions.
05:32Christmas cracker.
05:33Point to you, Tasha.
05:35Alexandra, I have a highbrow question for you.
05:40What is the title of the 1938 novel by Samuel Beckett,
05:43which depicts the life of a work-shy young man getting by in life?
05:47Getting by in life?
05:51No, I'm not sure.
05:52Should we go lowbrow?
05:53Yes, please.
05:54Okay, different questions.
05:55Same answer.
06:04Murphy.
06:05Murphy?
06:06Yeah.
06:06Absolutely right.
06:07Murphy answers both of those questions.
06:10John, so far we've got three lowbrows.
06:12Can we get a highbrow?
06:13Here's yours.
06:14No.
06:15Let's give it a go anyway.
06:17What was the first name of the Belgian surrealist painter
06:20who created works such as The Treachery of Images
06:23and Time Transfixed?
06:27Was it Magritte?
06:29The first name we're looking for.
06:31Oh, first name.
06:34Tom.
06:35Tom?
06:36No idea.
06:36No idea.
06:36Okay.
06:37Let's take a look at your lowbrow question.
06:46René.
06:47René.
06:48René.
06:48It is.
06:49You're 100% right about Magritte, though.
06:51It's René Magritte.
06:52Okay.
06:52So, yeah, almost a point and a half, you got yourself there.
06:56Didn't read the question properly.
06:57Didn't read it.
06:58But that's okay.
06:59We go back to Griff for a highbrow question.
07:01Two points if you can get this.
07:02In Act 2 of Macbeth, following the murder of Duncan,
07:07the old man recounts his portentous sighting of an owl
07:10killing what more powerful bird of prey?
07:16That's why you're looking at me.
07:17I'm just...
07:18I'm thinking about this.
07:19Is it an eagle?
07:20An eagle?
07:21An eagle.
07:22An eagle.
07:22Let's see if you want to stick with that or change it
07:24when we see your lowbrow question.
07:27In the Star Wars film franchise,
07:29the spaceship that Han Solo wins from Lando Calrissian
07:32in a card game is named after which bird of prey?
07:37Are you going to stick with eagle?
07:38I'm going to have to stick with eagle.
07:40I can't remember the Star Wars.
07:41You stick with eagle.
07:42Is that correct?
07:44It's not.
07:45I'm afraid anyone will buzz in.
07:47John.
07:47Falcon.
07:48Falcon.
07:49Millennium Falcon, yeah.
07:52Tasha, a highbrow question for you.
07:55Hi.
07:58What regnal name was taken by the son of Ernest Augustus,
08:01a lector of Hanover,
08:02when he came to England in 1714
08:04and by his next three successors?
08:09Oh.
08:11I'm just going to do a wild guess.
08:12I'm just going to say Henry.
08:13Henry.
08:14Let's see if you want to stick with that.
08:18What is the name of Peppa Pig's little brother?
08:20I don't watch Peppa Pig.
08:23No, I don't.
08:24Well, should we stick with Henry?
08:26I'll stick with Henry.
08:27Is it Henry?
08:29It is not.
08:30Anyone?
08:31Griff.
08:32George.
08:32George?
08:33It is George.
08:35Well done.
08:35You give yourself a point.
08:38Alexandra, I have one for you.
08:40A highbrow question.
08:41In the William Shakespeare play Henry VI Part II,
08:46the follower of Jack Cade,
08:48who suggests that all the lawyers should be killed,
08:50is Dick the Watt.
08:52Oh, I should know this.
08:55Should you know this?
08:56Yeah, I should know this.
08:57We did the Henrys at drama school.
08:59Oh, did you?
09:00Oh, OK.
09:00It was a long term ago.
09:02I'm going to have to go lowbrow, please.
09:03Go lowbrow.
09:04Yeah.
09:04The EastEnders character played by Sid Owen is Rikki who?
09:11Rikki.
09:12Oh, my gosh.
09:13I should know this as well.
09:16No, this isn't Corrie.
09:17This is EastEnders.
09:19Never cross the streams.
09:23Oh, I can't think.
09:27No, I think I'm sorry.
09:28No, time you out.
09:29Yeah.
09:30Anyone know it?
09:32I could go.
09:33Go on.
09:33Tasha.
09:34Martin.
09:35Martin?
09:36I can't think he played Rikki Martin.
09:38I tell you what, Sid Owen wishes he played Rikki Martin.
09:41That was me.
09:42Butcher, we were looking for.
09:43Dick the Butcher and Rikki Butcher.
09:45John Kay, our last chance to get a highbrow question.
09:50In the novel Agnes Grey by Anne Bronte,
09:52what is the original profession of the title character?
09:58I think a governess or a teacher.
10:01Governess slash teacher.
10:03I'll take both.
10:04I know what you mean.
10:05I'll take the spirit of your answer.
10:08Let's take a look at your lowbrow question.
10:11Anne Hegarty's nickname on the chase is the what?
10:17Have you got this at home?
10:19Oh, I've got a complete blank.
10:21Do you want to plump for one of your original answers?
10:24What?
10:25Governess?
10:26The governess?
10:28For two points, John Kay.
10:29Oh, okay.
10:32Classic case of absolutely knowing the highbrow one
10:34and not knowing the lowbrow one.
10:36Listen, that deserves two points.
10:38Well played, John.
10:38Our leaderboard after the first round looks like this.
10:40Everyone is off the mark.
10:42Tasha and Alexandra, you have one point each.
10:44Griff, you've got two.
10:45John has got four.
10:48Close one today, though.
10:50Our next round final pairs game of the week is...
10:53New Complete Me.
10:58Tasha, who would you like to play this round with?
11:00This is part of the other spot.
11:02I'll go with John.
11:03You're going to play with John.
11:04Griff and John, if you will swap seats.
11:09Welcome, John.
11:11Now, in this round, every single question has a two-word answer.
11:15So, fingers on buzzers.
11:16If you buzz in, you must just give me the first word of the answer.
11:19Your partner must then complete the answer.
11:21OK, so just the first word of the answer.
11:32John.
11:34Scott.
11:35Scott is correct.
11:36Tasha?
11:37I don't know a Scott.
11:40Yes, you do.
11:43No, I don't.
11:44You do.
11:45I don't know who Scott is.
11:47You do.
11:47I can't put a base to it.
11:49Shall we time you out, Tasha?
11:51I mean, you don't know.
11:54OK.
11:54Do you want the other team you want to buzz in?
11:56I mean, you don't know.
11:57Yes, Alexandra.
11:58Mills.
11:59Scott Mills.
11:59We were looking forward to Scott Mills.
12:01You get yourself a point.
12:02Griff, you got a point there.
12:03Well done.
12:05That's a nice point, isn't it?
12:06Fantastic.
12:07It's always my favourite point on any show is when your partner buzzes in and just gets something
12:11for you.
12:11Good.
12:12I'm going to leave this to you if we're going to get into similar territory.
12:15What is the first word of this answer, please?
12:18What is the subtitle of the 2024 June film sequel?
12:26No.
12:26No.
12:27Let's take a look.
12:29It was...
12:30Oh, come on.
12:31June 2.
12:32Go.
12:34That's gutted.
12:35That's a trick question.
12:35We could have had that, couldn't we?
12:37Yeah.
12:37Part 2.
12:38Question, writers.
12:40Those tricksters.
12:41Here's your next one.
12:47Yes, Alexandra.
12:49Oh, what have I done?
12:52Should we time you out?
12:53I'm sorry, I don't know his first name.
12:55No, I don't.
12:56Anyone on this team fancy it?
12:58Tasha.
12:59Bakayo.
13:00Bakayo is correct, John.
13:01Saka.
13:02Bakayo Saka.
13:03Absolutely right.
13:04You did.
13:05Bakayo Saka.
13:05I know a little bit of football.
13:07It wouldn't have mattered.
13:08If you got Bakayo, we'd have completely lost.
13:10Oh, OK.
13:11So, we're all right there.
13:12I would have loved what you came up with, Griff.
13:15Yeah, exactly.
13:16Next question.

13:35Well played, it is.
13:36Top boy.
13:37Nicely done.
13:38Every question writer in the country, they're hoping he says gear.
13:43Yeah.
13:45Or gun.
13:46Yes.
13:47Yeah.

13:48Or cat.
13:49I mean, there's all sorts of traps there.

15:01John and Griff, if you'll swap back, please.
15:04My husband won't be happy about that.
15:05Lovely to see you, John.
15:06And our leaderboard looks like this.
15:11Very close today.
15:12Three points between all of you.

15:56Herring.

16:16Wow.
16:18Tasha.
16:18The next two are based on the letters of your name.
16:21Tasha Goury.
16:22Two for you, one for anyone else, if you can get these.

16:54Give us a gem.
16:55That's so crickety.
16:56Alexandra.
16:57The next one is based on your name.
16:58You've got a lot of letters to deal with here.
17:00Yeah.
17:01Alexandra Mardell.
17:02The question writers would have liked that.
17:04First question.
17:04Most common breed of duck in the UK, males of which have a distinctive green head.
17:13Yes, Griff.
17:14Mallard.
17:14Mallard.
17:15It is Mallard.
17:18One point to Griff.
17:19Next one.
17:20Surname of South African president and activist, Nelson.
17:26Yes, John.
17:27Mandela.
17:28Mandela.
17:29I mean, I feel like I'm at Wimbledon.
17:32Now, John, you've given our question set as a real issue here.
17:38Yeah, I was going to say.
17:38You might have the shortest name of anyone who's ever been on.
17:41Do you want to go Jonathan?
17:42No, listen, they love a challenge.
17:44So, John Cave.
17:46Two points for John, one for anyone else, if you can get these.
17:50Tree that produces acorns.
17:54Yes, John.
17:55Oak.
17:55Oak is there.
17:59And final question.
18:001999 UK top ten hit for Whitney Houston.
18:03It's not right, but it's blank.
18:07Yes, that's Alexandra.
18:09OK.
18:09OK.
18:10It's not right, but it's OK.
18:11Absolutely.
18:12Thank God I didn't buzz, eh?
18:15Our leaderboard.
18:16Two rounds to go now before we give away our trophy.
18:18Griff and John had a good round there.
18:20Tasha, you've got three.
18:21Alexandra, you've got five.
18:23Griff with nine.
18:24John Kaye with 11.
18:25That's a lot of points per letter of name.
18:29You put yourself there.
18:31Our next round is going to be...
18:34And the answer isn't.
18:39In this round, Griff, I'm going to give you a question
18:40with four possible answers.
18:42One is correct.
18:43You'll get your point if you get it.
18:44The other three were written by Tasha, Alexandra and John
18:47to try and fool you.
18:48And you will give them a point if you choose theirs.
18:51OK.
18:51OK.
18:52Griff, here's your first question and four possible answers.
18:56When comedian Elaine C. Smith was granted the freedom of Glasgow,
18:59she celebrated by exercising her newfound right to do what?
19:04Did she...
19:05Play the bagpipes without a permit on Buchanan Street?
19:12Did she graze cattle on Glasgow Green?
19:15Did she use a sword to knight a friend?
19:18Or did she crown the horseman with a traffic cone?
19:23If one of those is correct, you'll get a point.
19:25I love the fact your fingers are still on the buzzers.
19:27I know.
19:28I'm just worried that suddenly we're going to get a buzz from over there
19:31and it's going to go ahead.
19:32I think it's grazed the cattle on Glasgow Green.
19:35Any thinking behind that?
19:37Well, because freedoms and things like that were, you know,
19:40before bagpipes and things like that.
19:42Pre-bagpipes?
19:42You think freedom was pre-bagpipes?
19:45Yep, yep, and I don't think the sword to knight a friend is just possible
19:50because that's a thing for members of royalty.
19:53And crown the horseman with a traffic cone
19:56is what happens when Glasgow gets a little bit overwrought.
19:59Yes, just overwrought is a nice way of putting it.
20:02So have you scored a point or have you given a point away is the question.
20:06What would you go for at home?
20:07Is the answer grazed cattle on Glasgow Green?
20:10It is Griff.
20:12Well done.
20:13Very handy time to get a point.
20:15Very nice.
20:16The others, the bagpipes,
20:18was John.
20:20The sword was Tasha.
20:23And crowning the horseman was Alexandra.
20:26Tasha, I have a question for you now.
20:28Yes.
20:29Four possible answers.
20:30In 2022, Mariah Carey's attempt to trademark which phrase
20:35was rejected by the US Patent and Trademark Office?
20:40Was it...
20:41Queen of Christmas?
20:43Ho-ho, hokey-cokey?
20:47It's all about Mimi.
20:50Or the chick is in the post.
20:53Which of those did she try to trademark?
20:55I thought everyone says, like, Queen of Christmas.
20:58Is that something Mariah would say?
21:00It's all about Mimi, I don't know.
21:02That seems more realistic.
21:04I'm going to go with it's all about Mimi.
21:06It's all about Mimi.
21:07Has Tasha scored a point?
21:08Has she given a point away?
21:09What would you have gone for at home on this one?
21:12Is the answer it's all about Mimi?
21:14It is not.
21:16What was the answer?
21:18She tried to trademark Queen of Christmas.
21:19Really?
21:20Yeah.
21:21So you've given a point away.
21:22Who have you given it to?
21:23Who wrote it's all about Mimi?
21:26Alexandra wrote it.
21:27Very nicely done.
21:28Well fooled.
21:30Ho, ho, hokey-cokey was John.
21:33And the chick is in the post.
21:35Was Griff.
21:36That would be a great thing to trademark, wasn't it?
21:38Alexandra, question for you with four possible answers.
21:41Right.
21:42The fish Neoclinus blanchidae, which defends its territory by opening its enormous mouth to intimidate potential intruders, is known by what common name?
21:54Nuclear whitebait?
21:57Great white anglerfish?
21:58Neon manta ray?
21:59Neon manta ray?
22:03Or sarcastic fringe head?
22:06Which of those?
22:07I mean, I hope it's that.
22:09That's brilliant.
22:09What do you think at home on this one?
22:14What would you go for?
22:15I'm going to go for the...
22:18It's so horrible, because not only have you got the score of points, you're aware you're giving someone else at someone's point.
22:22I'm going to have to go for the neon manta ray.
22:26You're going to go with the neon manta ray.
22:28I think it's a good trick.
22:29What would you go with at home on this one?
22:30It's a tricky one, isn't it?
22:31Neon manta ray.
22:32Has Alexandra just scored a point?
22:34Oh.
22:35She is not the actual answer.
22:38Oh.
22:38Sarcastic fringe head.
22:40Oh, that's funny.
22:41Wow.
22:42I always thought it was that one.
22:43Common name, it says.
22:44I don't think that's very common.
22:45I haven't used it myself very frequently.
22:49Sarcastic fringe head.
22:51Wow.
22:51OK.
22:52You've given a point away to whoever wrote neon manta ray.
22:55It could be a very important point at a very important time.
22:57Who wrote it?
22:59Tasha wrote it.
23:00Well done.
23:01Very nice.
23:02Next day, he was close.
23:04You two were too far inside each other's heads, I'm afraid.
23:07Swap points there.
23:08We were in the same way back.
23:09Nuclear white bait was John, and great white anglerfish was Griff.
23:14Sarcastic fringe head.
23:15Very well done if you plumped for that.
23:17John.
23:18Yes.
23:19It would be a lovely time to score a point.
23:21It would be an annoying time to give away a point,
23:23particularly if it was to Griff.
23:25Yes.
23:25Your question is this.
23:27What is the name of the dessert invented at Cambridge University
23:31that is considered by some to be the original recipe for eaten mess?
23:35Is it...
23:37Good, wrong answers, everybody.
23:50One of those is correct.
23:53I...
23:53Claire College Mush.
23:56Claire College Mush.
23:57It's got a lot of information in there, right?
23:58Yeah, it seems quite specific.
23:59OK, we go with that.
24:02Yeah.
24:02What do we reckon at home?
24:03Do you agree with John, disagree?
24:05Has he scored a point?
24:06Has he given a point away?
24:07I wonder.
24:07Crucial time to do either.
24:09Claire College Mush.
24:10Is that the correct answer?
24:13Go!
24:13It is the correct answer.
24:15It is the correct answer.
24:17Well played.
24:18Very nicely done.
24:19College Chop was Griff.
24:21I'd have gone for that.
24:22You'd have fooled me there.
24:23Cambridge Clutter was Alexandra and Hot Mess was Tasha.
24:28Hot Mess.
24:29I'd love it if it was a hot mess.
24:31I love that.
24:31That's the end of the round.
24:32We have one round to go.
24:33One round before we give away our trophy.
24:35Who is it going to go to?
24:36Let's take a look at our leaderboards.
24:40Tasha, you have four.
24:41Alexandra has got six.
24:43Griff has got ten.
24:44John has got 12.
24:46I recommended yesterday, John, that you just sit back
24:48because you had a seven-point lead.
24:50You cannot sit back on a two-point lead.
24:52I will say that.
24:53Battle is joined, I think.
24:55Here we go.
24:57Shall we do it?
24:58Oh, God.
24:58Look at that.
24:59Get the old buzzer fingers working.
25:01Just warm them up a little bit.
25:02It's been a brilliant week's quiz and been a load of fun.
25:04Thank you so much, everyone.
25:05One round to go before we give away our trophy.
25:07Who's going to win it, I wonder?
25:09Let's find out.
25:14Point for a correct answer.
25:15Point off for an incorrect answer.
25:17Could be crucial.
25:18Our first category is...
25:20UK Prime Ministers.
25:24Those will be the pictures.
25:25John has interviewed a few of them.
25:26Here is your clue and your picture.
25:29The name of which edible fungus comes from the Japanese words for oak and mushroom?
25:36John's going for it.
25:37Is correct, John.
25:45That was brave.
25:46Not least because I couldn't say that before nine o'clock at night.
25:51Finally, the chance...
25:52Yeah, exactly.
25:53It is your next clue and your next Prime Minister.
25:55The boundary between the counties of Cornwall and Devon is mostly formed by which river?
26:02Yes, John.
26:04Tay Margaret Thatcher.
26:05Tay Margaret Thatcher.
26:07It is Tay Mar and Margaret Thatcher.
26:09Tay Margaret Thatcher.
26:10Next category.

26:13Those will be the pictures.
26:14There will be clues above.
26:15In a well-known solidiquary from Hamlet, what six words precede That Is The Question?
26:24Yes, Griff.
26:26To be or not to beehive.
26:28To be or not to beehive.
26:30That's absolutely right, Griff.
26:31To be or not to be and beehive.
26:33Next clue.
26:34Next picture.
26:34Which resort in Mexico completes the title of a UK top ten hit for the four tops?

26:53Acapulco-mover.
26:54Next clue.
26:55Next hairstyle.
26:56Tobermory in Scotland is the largest settlement on the coast of which stretch of water?
27:04Yes, John.
27:05Mullet of Kintyre.
27:07It's incorrect, I'm afraid.
27:10Shall we find out?
27:13The sound of mullets.
27:15The sound of mull and mullet would have been the sound of mullet.
27:18And I think we're about to hear the sound of mullet.
27:20Here it is.
27:22It is the sound of mullets worldwide.
27:24I said you couldn't settle back and sit back, John.
27:26You didn't settle back and sit back.
27:28You absolutely took it by the horns.
27:29Our winner today...
27:31..for the third time is John Kaye.
27:34Well played, John.
27:35I thought I lost it on the mullet then.
27:38Oh, no, you have points in hand because of your bravery.
27:41Which prize would you like?
27:42The suitcase.
27:43He's off on holiday.
27:44Of course, he's taken the House of Games suitcase.
27:46Sashaying through the airport with that in a few hours' time.
27:50Exactly.
27:50If you see John, do say hi.
27:52We also have the trophy to give away.
27:54And we know who it's going to.
27:55What a performance across the week.
27:57Our champion on House of Games is John Kaye.
28:01Well played, John.
28:02Nicely done.
28:05John, congratulations on your win.
28:07Thank you all so much for a lovely week.
28:09Really had a lot of fun.
28:10I hope you had fun too watching this week on the House of Games.
28:13APPLAUSE
28:14APPLAUSE
28:42Why don't you show that to Charlie State?
28:44Charlie, there you go.
28:46That's what a winner looks like.
