02:42quiz shows well good luck to all three of you today gang you are sorting facts from fiction in
02:49Dundee it's a fix Dundee I'm not from Glasgow and Dundee are very different places that is
02:54terrified now Dundee Dundee really yes now before we kick things off let's find out where Dundee
03:00actually is on the map oh no so there it is earlier each of you placed a pin on the
03:08map
03:08as to where you think Dundee is located let's see where you drop your pins okay
03:16oh hello sorry I'm absolutely flabbergasted that is not where I thought I'd put it and
03:23do you know what that's a special lesson to do put your glasses on yeah Noreen you were
03:28furthest away from Dundee 192 miles your pin is in the Scottish Highlands in Sutherland you hit
03:34the parish of Rogart and more specifically you hit Banskull Kennels and here is Sarah wishing you all the
03:45best Susan you were 159 miles away in a hamlet called Recullen in Invergordon however Max bravo
03:54you were only 15 miles away you landed in Pitt Middlewood in Perthshire right the first question
04:03today is for you Susan so get ready over to Paul now in Dundee where he's making tour guiding
04:08look like a piece of cake welcome to Dundee Scotland's fourth largest city with a population
04:18of over 140 000 people it's perfectly perched on the northern bank of the Firth of Tay and can boast
04:26the fact it typically has more sunshine than any other city in Scotland Dundonians are no dummies either
04:33as Dundee is known as the city of discovery and can lay claim to many inventions from the adhesive
04:39postage stamp to the bar and pie charts even one of the earliest demonstrations of the electric light
04:50as well as discovery this city comes with deliciousness we all know the famous Dundee
04:55cake a proper powerhouse pudding packed with fruit and topped with almonds but would you believe despite
05:01its modern association with the city the famous Dundee cake was invented by an American called Angelo
05:08Dundee in 1842 well were you
05:14Susan would you believe that despite its modern association with the city the famous Dundee cake
05:21was invented by an American called Angelo Dundee in 1842
05:30I'd say I don't believe that which means it's probably true doesn't it Angelo Dundee sounds
05:35like the kind of work of a fictional detective it does doesn't it Angelo Dundee nice to meet you
05:40all right well you're saying you don't believe it yeah are we right not to believe it
05:45yes well done you get a point you're up and running Dundee cake was actually invented in Dundee
05:52Angelo Dundee was Muhammad Ali's boxing trainer wow there you go right Max you're up next let's
05:59get back to the tour over to you Paul this could go anywhere
06:05so it's not a real unicorn but here in Dundee you can still get up close to the Horned Beauty
06:10because this
06:11is where you'll find one of the oldest ships in the world the HMS unicorn first launched in 1824
06:21it's still afloat today and the ship's choice of creature is no coincidence as the unicorn itself
06:26is Scotland's national animal a symbol of innocence purity and strength you'll even spot it on the
06:33country's coat of arms but would you believe Scotland's national symbol is the unicorn because
06:40Robert the Bruce was visited by the mythical creature in his dreams before the battle of
06:46Bannockburn is it true yay or nay
06:52so Max would you believe Scotland's national symbol is the unicorn because Robert the Bruce was visited
06:58by the mythical creature in his dreams before the battle of Bannockburn I am leaning towards the
07:05fact that I do believe that I'll be really cross if it's something like a squirrel that that came
07:11to him in his dreams instead all right so you're saying you believe it let's see if it is fact
07:15or fiction
07:17oh was it a squirrel it is a unicorn but Scotland adopted the unicorn because it is seen as the
07:23natural
07:24enemy of the lion which England I was going to say that's English in 1306 following the battle of
07:30Methven Robert the Bruce hid in a cave where he observed a spider spinning a web the spider's
07:37persistence is what inspired him to carry on try try try again yeah all right now it's your turn
07:42yeah okay now Paul is heading to discovery point where Dundee's most famous ship hangs out
07:50at the aptly named discovery point you'll find the rrs discovery launched in 1901 the ship carried
07:58ernest shackleton and captain scott on the first antarctic expedition they charted vast areas of
08:06the frozen continent and made major scientific and geographic breakthroughs but would you believe
08:13that scott's 1901 expedition was sponsored by cabris and almost two tons of cocoa powder and chocolate
08:19was aboard well would you
08:25noreen would you believe that scott's 1901 expedition to the antarctic was sponsored by cabris and almost
08:31two tons of cocoa powder and chocolate were aboard it's quite the commercial deal let's be honest with
08:38yeah two tons there was no internet where you can make sponsored content yeah exactly you're not
08:44seeing captain scott on the on the deck be like hi guys like and subscribe hi guys how you doing
08:49shout
08:50out to cabris just on the ship chilling for all the chalky yeah i'm kind of thinking this is is
08:55it
08:55believable or not i don't believe this you don't believe it no well let's have a look
09:02oh no you should have believed it other sponsors were coleman's mustard who provided one and a half
09:09tons of mustard as well as nine tons of flour and bovril who gave 45 gallons of beef extract wow
09:17chocolate mustard and bovril sandwiches all around yeah that's the end of round one so let's have a look
09:23out the scores oh noreen yet to score but susan and max your joint top with one point so far
09:31right it's time for round two and let's get back to paul now he's checking out the design dna
09:35of dundee's vienna simpler than it sounds
09:42everyone loves a good return on investment and here in dundee this stunning building on the waterfront
09:47is the vna dundee scotland's first design museum and a perfect example of money well spent designed
09:54by japanese architect kengo kuma and opened in 2018 the building costs 80 million pounds to create and
10:01has generated over 300 million pounds for the local economy but the design of vna dundee is based on
10:09which of these intriguing things sea cliffs a computer motherboard or a jute loom
10:33the only reason i think it's a jute loom is because dundee is traditionally known for three things
10:43jam jute and journalism i've been to the vna in dundee and the only thing is i don't think
10:49it's a computer motherboard because i don't think that would fit in with what they were trying to
10:52do with the building the sea cliffs is quite an interesting idea having stood outside it i could
10:57see how that could be the sea cliffs am i talking myself out of it now because i think that's
11:04too obvious
11:05because when i think about how it looks i hate looking at your face just now my goodness you're just
11:09sitting here just sitting there um i'm gonna say sea cliffs you're going for sea cliffs all right
11:15we'll lock that in you can't change your mind is sea cliffs the right answer yay
11:29well done well japanese architect kengo kuma was inspired by the cliffs on scotland's northeastern
11:37coastline there you go well done bravo that's how you play this game right max ready yes here we go
11:44let's go back to paul he's in his element i'm afraid he's combined his two favorite things guiding
11:49and gaming
11:53abate university is world renowned for its pioneering work in video game design and was the first university
12:00in the world to offer a degree in the subject back in 1997. and dundee is also the birthplace of
12:07one of
12:07the biggest video game companies in the world it all started back in 1991 when the small studio called
12:15dma design created the smash hit puzzle game lemmings the company evolved into rockstar north and went on
12:22to produce some of the biggest titles in gaming history including the global phenomenon grand theft auto
12:28which has sold 450 million copies worldwide but which of these entertainment ventures was quickest to
12:36gross one billion us dollars avengers end game gta 5 or taylor swift's eras tour

20:06you've got six don't get comfortable just yet we're going to go back to paul now who's stepping into
20:10mcgonagall square to channel his inner poet oh beautiful land of dundee how very lovely ye be paved
20:22with stones both grey and fair oh look i'm in mcgonagall square this square dear friends has quite
20:30acclaim for dundee's glory it feeds its fame the land of jute and jam so sweet plus journalism too that's
20:39news on the street a little fact i just found dundee sits on a volcanic mound and strange facts still
20:45i
20:45don't want to be a rotter but would you believe that in the 2000s this square was renamed after
20:49professor mcgonagall from harry potter poetry mic drop
20:59right first question yeah to you sure susan would you believe in the 2000s mcgonagall square
21:06in dundee was renamed after professor mcgonagall from harry potter i i doubt it i think it's after
21:12is it william mcgonagall there's a poet called is i think it's william mcgonagall it's certainly
21:17mcgonagall so i do not believe that because i believe it's probably named after the poets
21:22very good we don't believe it yes well done and you were right you were bang on susan it was
21:29named
21:29after dundee and poet william topaz mcgonagall a man who became notorious in the 19th century for
21:36unintentionally poorly written literature that many found funny however jk rowling found the name
21:43mcgonagall inspirational and imagined the fictional witch and the real life poet were related
21:48right max it's your turn are you ready i think so here we go next up paul pays a visit
21:53to two iconic
21:54sports grounds paul let's see what you've got my friend dundee is a proud football city home to not
22:04one but two great clubs dundee fc play at dens park while dundee united are literally across the road
22:12at tanadice the two stadiums are so close together i've been told that they're only 200 yards apart
22:20i don't believe it luckily my doctor once told me that my stride is exactly one yard long
22:27so let's put it to the test eh one two three 14 15 16 17 104 105 106 107 198
22:40199
22:44200 that's incredible 200 yards on the nose that makes dundee united and dundee fc the closest
22:52senior grounds in britain you can literally walk from one to the other in no time at all
22:59which i've just proved but would you believe that it's possible to kick a football from one to the
23:07other right max would you believe it's possible to kick a football from tanadice park to dens park
23:16right quite a punt yes 200 yards is like 180 meters that's two football pitches long there is
23:24no way that anyone can kick that far with a football i don't think even leonel messi to my
23:30right here can do that so i i don't believe that no i don't think it's possible to kick a
23:35football
23:35from tanadice park to dens park if it is 200 yards let's have a look yeah the longest goal scored
23:43in
23:43a competitive football match covered an incredible distance of 96.01 meters 105 yards goalkeeper tom king
23:50scored from a goal kick for newport county against cheltenham town in 2021 105 yards which is pretty much
23:58from end to end well done you got a point right so paul's last stop of the tour and this
24:04time he's got
24:05company dundee has a proud publishing history with newspapers like the courier and the sunday post
24:14helping people like me keep up to date with all the news and current affairs as i am quite the
24:19newsy
24:19intellectual myself oh how did that get here but perhaps even more famous than dundee's newspapers
24:26are dundee's comics come on little man follow me the tour carries on this way first published in
24:35the 1930s the beano and the dandy have been giving kids of all ages the lols with characters like minnie
24:42the minx desperate dan and dennis the menace entertaining generations and helping to make the beano
24:49the world's longest running weekly comic and from time to time even a few celebrities have joined the
24:57gang but which of these famous people have been a guest editor of the beano is it harry hill or
25:03is it
25:03harry styles don't tell him
25:08i think paul's met his match right noreen which of these famous people has been a guest editor of the
25:15the beano is it harry hill or is it harry styles well i'm inclined to say harry hill over harry
25:22styles
25:23because he's a comedian and i can imagine him doing a lot of writing i'm not saying harry
25:29styles probably doesn't i don't know if he writes his own songs does he uh but i'm gonna go harry
25:32hill
25:33you've locked in harry hill is that the right answer
25:37yes it is it was for comic relief and it was billed as the bald issue harry styles was depicted
25:43as a cartoon character in a special issue in 2023 for its 85th anniversary so well done you get a
25:50point and with that point that's the end of that round so let's have a look at the scores
