00:00Hello, I'm Jeremy Vine and welcome to what promises to be another exciting instalment of Celebrity Puzzling.
00:05As ever, tonight features two teams of celebrities tackling tricky puzzles to take home a jackpot of zero pounds.
00:13Should we have mentioned that bit to them before tonight? Probably. Oh well, this is Celebrity Puzzling.
00:36Hello, welcome to Celebrity Puzzling and first let's meet our wonderful team captains, shall we?
00:41Here to do some intellectual heavy lifting and I can already hear those cogs turning, it's the cracking Carol Vorderman.
00:49And her track record speaks for itself, but that certainly won't stop her talking, it is the superb Sally Lindsay.
00:57Our captains, everyone. Now, who will be sharing the blame with them this evening?
01:02Team captain Carol is a journalist who's obsessed with the movie Jaws just when you thought it was safe to
01:07turn on ITV News.
01:08It's Lucrezia Millerini.
01:12And joining Sally, he's the dingle who makes us tingle.
01:16All the way from the wool pack on Emmerdale, it's Mark Charnock. Welcome!
01:22Love it. Lucrezia, let me ask you first of all.
01:25Yeah. The news. Yes.
01:26Serious face for that, right? Okay.
01:28Can you just do that? Oh, I say!
01:30She keeps making me laugh.
01:32Clashes on the studio with me all the time.
01:35The puzzling is serious, isn't it?
01:37Puzzling? Incredibly serious.
01:39I think we'll find that out when we can.
01:41I think we'll find out that we're very competitive.
01:44Yeah, a little bit competitive.
01:46Okay. Mark, everyone must always think, is he the same or slightly the same as dear old Marlon?
01:51We're as neurotic as each other, let's put it that way.
01:54Yeah, and he's a better chef than me.
01:56And Marlon's had how many wives now?
01:59I'm on to my fifth wife.
02:01Which, saying it out loud, I mean, he's punched well above his waist.
02:05I don't know what's going on.
02:06It's amazing.
02:07Okay, let me tell you how this works.
02:09It'll be worth it in the long run.
02:10Vorderman, Lindsay, Millerini, Charnock may sound like an expensive legal firm.
02:15They are a part of our celebrity puzzlers.
02:18They will face six rounds and a final.
02:20Their mission is to score as many points as possible.
02:23Really?
02:23Yes.
02:24I know that will come as a shock.
02:25You do want a big league going into our final round.
02:28Seriously, Answer Bank, because, as we know, it can all shift around in the final.
02:32Yep.
02:33The winning celebrity will get the celebrity puzzling, puzzling cube.
02:37It is a thing of money.
02:38There it is.
02:39That's the dream, isn't it?
02:40That is the dream.
02:42And it's very well lit.
02:43So, a lot of fun with this cube.
02:45A lot to play for.
02:48Sorry there.
02:49Round one, here we come.
02:51Let's get puzzling.
02:51The first puzzle should be as easy as one, two, three.
02:53We've actually called it.
02:55Three, two, one.
02:55Yay!
02:56It's just a lot of fun.
02:58So, let's see, teams, if you can master this one.
03:00Oh, look at this.
03:00I think Lucrezia immediately goes into her game face mode.
03:03Look at that.
03:04Oh, yeah.
03:05I'm serious now.
03:06Let's do this.
03:07On the screen, you'll see a grid of answers.
03:10Three of those answers will be connected, and two of those answers will be connected.
03:13Leaving an odd one out, can you find all the right connections to solve the puzzle?
03:18So, this is just an example.
03:19What do you think, guests?
03:21Buffalo and Bison.
03:22Yeah, yeah, definitely.
03:23Or it could be Buffalo, Yonkers and Albany, actually, aren't they?
03:25Three American...
03:26Go on, Lucrezia, what do you think?
03:27I would agree.
03:28Buffalo, Yonkers, Albany.
03:29All right, so we think, OK, maybe the trio is places in New York State.
03:32I'll tell you what it is.
03:33The group of three were Ithaca, Yonkers, Albany, which are cities in the state of New York.
03:38And then you've got Bison, Buffalo, which is the pair, different names for the same animal.
03:44The odd one out was Teak, type of wood.
03:47That's how you do it.
03:48So, how was that for you?
03:49Were you New York State or an absolute state?
03:52It's worth knowing when forming your connections, they can't go diagonally.
03:56The sides need to touch.
03:58OK.
03:59All right?
03:59So, Carol and Lucrezia, you start first.
04:03Here's your first 3-2-1 puzzle.
04:04Here we go.
04:08Well, that's...
04:09Look, that's obvious to me.
04:10The three is going to be horror movies.
04:12So, Jaws, Halloween, The Thing, they are touching, they are three, they are definitely horror movies.
04:18But then what's Human Torch?
04:20Yeah.
04:21Oh, gosh.
04:22I can't see Mount Rushmore add up to anything else, really, can you?
04:26Oh, my gosh.
04:28But Human Torch, Invisible Woman...
04:30What's thrown me a little bit is that The Thing and Halloween are both directed by John Carpenter, right?
04:36And Jaws is Spielberg.
04:37Yes.
04:38So, then I'm thinking, are we actually looking at three Spielberg movies, two John Carpenter movies, and then an odd
04:44one out?
04:44But the three have to be touching, don't they?
04:46They do have to be touching.
04:48Yes.
04:48Let's try.
04:49The Thing, Halloween...
04:51Oh, please be right.
04:52And Jaws.
04:53So, The Thing, Halloween and Jaws is your trio.
04:56Yeah.
04:56Because they're undoubtedly scary movies.
04:58Yeah, yeah.
04:59The pair must be...
05:00Human Torch and Mount Rushmore, and we've no idea...
05:03Not sure why.
05:04OK, well, there could be some connection there.
05:06Yeah.
05:06And then the odd one out would be Invisible Woman.
05:08Let's see if that's right.
05:10Ah, it's wrong.
05:12No chance to steal in this game.
05:15So, Human Torch, The Thing, Invisible Woman, but why?
05:19Mark?
05:20Are they comics?
05:22They are members of...
05:23Oh, it's the Fantastic Four, isn't it?
05:25Yes, they're members of the Fantastic Four.
05:28Halloween, Jaws is the pair, scary movies.
05:32Mount Rushmore, the odd one out.
05:34Sally and Mark, your first 3-2-1 question.
05:38Aged, or aged, Arial, Italic, Old, Bold, Underline.
05:45Bold, Underline, and Italic are all...
05:47Yeah, Bold, Arial, and Italic are fonts, aren't they?
05:49Does bold count as a font, though?
05:51Probably not.
05:52So, it's Arial, Italic, and Underline.
05:56Aged and old means the same.
05:58Yeah.
05:59And bold's the one that's trying to throw it.
06:01So, is Underline definitely a font?
06:02Well, it's not that it's a font.
06:03It's just, you know, there's that drop-down menu on format.
06:06I'm such a nerd.
06:08That drop-down menu on format,
06:09where they're all on the same bit of the format.
06:12It's under...
06:13I would have thought Underline, Italic, and Bold are the three,
06:16but you might...
06:17Because I'm not sure...
06:19Arial's definitely a font.
06:20Yeah, but is Aged a font, or old?
06:23No, I'm sorry, I think it's Italic, Arial, and Bold,
06:26because they're fonts.
06:28Aged and Old are the same meaning.
06:29And Underline is something that you tell it to do.
06:31I'm going to go to your wisdom,
06:33because your wisdom is great.
06:35Well, if I've got it wrong, I'm really sorry, mate.
06:36All right, what's your answer?
06:37I'm going to go for Italic, Arial, and Bold,
06:39because they're fonts.
06:41I'm going to go for Ages and Old,
06:42because they mean the same.
06:45And Underline, I think, is an instruction
06:47as opposed to a font.
06:48But if I've got that horribly wrong, I apologise now.
06:51No, no, no, I see your logic completely.
06:52All right.
06:54Is that correct?
06:56Flip. Sorry, you got it right.
06:59When you write something in a font like Arial,
07:01and, by the way, that's not how you spell Arial, the font,
07:04then you decide, do I want to put it into Italic,
07:07do I want to underline it, do I want to put it in bold?
07:09Right, so it's an instruction.
07:10That's what groups them.
07:11So we'll see the correct answer.
07:14Italic, Bold, Underline.
07:15So you were right.
07:15Aged and Old, obviously the same thing.
07:17Arial, different.
07:18This is good.
07:19You both put a bit of sweat into it.
07:21Yes.
07:21You misfired.
07:22This is what's at stake here.
07:23Oh, man.
07:24OK.
07:24OK.
07:25Heads up, all four, raise your games.
07:27I've never wanted anything more, and I'm kind of not joking.
07:30We have a sarcasm meter here, and it's just gone off.
07:34Get ready, Carol and Lucrezia.
07:35Here's the next one.
07:36OK.
07:38This is such a great round.
07:40Moolah, pool, cart, bread, dough, plough.
07:44Right.
07:45Trio and a pair, and an odd one out, please.
07:47This is where I'm going.
07:49Moolah, bread, dough are different slang words for money.
07:53And then the two.
07:55Cart and plough.
07:56Yes, I would say.
07:57And pool is the other one out.
07:58I would say so.
07:59Yeah.
08:00Well, Moolah, bread, dough, all other words for money.
08:03That's your trio.
08:05OK.
08:05Yeah.
08:06Yeah.
08:07Cart and a plough, similar things, do the same job, right?
08:10Yeah.
08:10And then pool, inevitably, has to be on its own.
08:13Yeah.
08:14That's what we're going to go with.
08:16OK, that's your answer.
08:17Let's see if it's right.
08:18Come on.
08:19Yay!
08:20Yes, well done.
08:22And right, and for the right reasons.
08:24OK, Sally and Mark, let's see if you can get this one right.
08:26Here's your next three, two, one.
08:29Boater, calculator, ABBA.
08:31Highlighter, eraser, erasure.
08:35OK.
08:36Well, ABBA and erasure.
08:39Didn't erasure do one of ABBA's songs?
08:41I can't remember.
08:42But anyway, the calculator, eraser, highlighter thing suggests stationary,
08:46doesn't it?
08:46I do.
08:46And I love a bit of stationary.
08:47Who doesn't?
08:49And a boater is a hat.
08:50Yes, it is.
08:51So, I think you're right there.
08:53I'm not saying a word, because I majorly messed up last time.
08:56No, you didn't mess up.
08:57You discussed it.
08:58And you chose.
08:59I did, Jeremy.
09:00We're not missing anything on you.
09:01All right, mate.
09:02Yeah, no.
09:03Calculator, eraser and highlighter are stationary.
09:07ABBA, erasure, obviously, burns.
09:09And a boater is a hat.
09:12Is it correct?
09:15Well done.
09:16The trio's right.
09:17They're all kind of things you have in school, basically, really.
09:20Yeah.
09:20In a pencil case.
09:21Yeah, pencil case items.
09:23Exactly.
09:24ABBA and erasure are bands.
09:26The odd one out was boater.
09:28OK.
09:29Carol and Lucrezia, here's the next one.
09:31All right, next one.
09:33Double Denim Tequila Quadruple Saxophone Marathon.
09:37Oh, fine.
09:39Double Denim.
09:40Do you ever wear double denim?
09:42I do.
09:42I love a bit of double denim.
09:43Do you?
09:43Yeah, I love it.
09:44But this is...
09:44Right, to this.
09:46Oh, gosh.
09:46OK, double and quadruple, obviously, they're times tables, effectively.
09:50Oh, OK.
09:51I was going to say, marathon is the old name for a...
09:53It's quite a good thing.
09:55Do you remember it, Sal?
09:57Yeah, the old name for...
09:58It's the peanuts in it.
09:59Double tequila, obviously, which is great.
10:01Not touching.
10:04So that won't work, right?
10:06I'm a bit puzzled.
10:06The obvious thing is double and quadruple.
10:09Mm-hmm.
10:11Erm...
10:11I don't know.
10:12This is tricky, actually.
10:13Where does saxophone fit in all of this?
10:16If...
10:17Go on.
10:19Or...
10:19If...
10:20Have a guess at your three.
10:22Shall we go Denim Tequila and Marathon?
10:24All right, go on, then.
10:25Let's do it.
10:26Let's have it.
10:26Denim Tequila and Marathon.
10:28Trio, right.
10:29Yeah.
10:30And then the times tables, the double and the quadruple.
10:34Uh-huh, OK, yeah, right.
10:35And then saxophone, obviously, our odd one.
10:37All right.
10:38But we don't really know.
10:39No, I can see that.
10:41Let's see if it's right.
10:43Oh!
10:43All right, so double and quadruple, of course, to get there.
10:48Denim is called that because it comes from a place called Nîmes,
10:52in French, de Nîmes, from Nîmes.
10:55Tequila is a place, and Marathon, I think, is in Greece.
10:58All right, final puzzle.
11:00It's time for Sally and Mark.
11:01Here we go.
11:01Three, two, one.
11:03Blow, Coco, Encanto, Slow, Glow, Rango.
11:08Oh, no.
11:10Limey.
11:11Is Rango on with Johnny Depp?
11:12Coco is that Mexican thing?
11:14Is Rang...
11:14I've never heard of Rang.
11:15I've heard of Coco and Encanto.
11:17Is Blow, Slow and Glow because they've got L-O in them?
11:21Glowworm, Slowworm?
11:23Oh, that could be it, yeah.
11:24Glowworm, Slowworm.
11:27I'm pretty sure...
11:28Is Rango a character?
11:28Rango is like a lizardy coat.
11:30I think it's voiced by Johnny Depp.
11:32Right, OK, so let's do that, then.
11:33So we're going to go for Coco and Encanto Rango,
11:36and then Slow and Glow, as in Worms.
11:39Worms.
11:40And then Blow, as in nothing.
11:42Mm.
11:43Is it right?
11:45Yes, and for the right reasons.
11:48So winners of the...
11:50The three were winners of the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
11:54The second one is...
11:55And well done, Mark, on this Slowworm, Glowworm.
11:57Absolutely right.
11:58And the odd one out, there's no such thing as a blowworm.
12:00OK, at the end of that round,
12:02Carol and Lucrezia have four points.
12:05Sally and Mark also have four.
12:07Oh, yes.
12:10In a moment, our teams will head over to the letterbox
12:13to try to build up their points total.
12:15Both teams will get a chance.
12:17Going first, it's Carol and Lucrezia, so no heckling.
12:19You two, OK?
12:21The game you're playing tonight is thirdle.
12:26I'll give you an example now.
12:27You're going to see three words,
12:28each with the third letter missing.
12:29You need to fill in those missing letters
12:31using the tiles provided
12:32and spell a new word vertically.
12:34You're against the clock.
12:35You score three points if you solve the puzzle.
12:38You've got a full alphabet to play with.
12:40So, shout it out.
12:42What's that?
12:42Incur?
12:43I would say...
12:45Incur...
12:45Agony and fence.
12:47Fence, OK.
12:47Con.
12:48Con, yeah.
12:49That's perfect.
12:50Yeah.
12:50So, Carol and Lucrezia,
12:51please head on over to the letterbox now
12:53to play thirdle.
12:57Carol and Lucrezia, pick that button
12:59when you've completed it.
12:59Here's your first thirdle.
13:01Your time starts now.
13:05Jiffy?
13:05Yeah.
13:06Well, it's Jiffy.
13:07It could be.
13:08You know, Jiffy.
13:08OK, yes.
13:10Celeb.
13:11The word.
13:12Celeb.
13:12Celeb, what does that mean?
13:12I'll tell you what, they do this all the time.
13:16Fly!
13:17Fly!
13:18Go on, yes, good.
13:19That was very quick.
13:20Your second puzzle will have four words
13:22with the third letter missing.
13:24You will have to spell a new four-letter word vertically.
13:26It's worth four points if you're ready.
13:27Your time starts now.
13:29Let's have a little look.
13:31Basil.
13:32Do you think?
13:33Yeah, it could be basil, yes,
13:34because I'm looking at that as brush already.
13:36And brush.
13:36Right, so I stick in...
13:38There.
13:39Go on, you do that.
13:40Oh, brush.
13:40OK, nice.
13:41OK.
13:42Syrup?
13:43Oh, brush or brush?
13:44Oh, I don't know.
13:44It might be.
13:45Oh, I know what it is.
13:46Syrup.
13:47Can you put the R in?
13:48Yeah.
13:48R in.
13:49That's the brush.
13:50That's the Dread.
13:51Put that in.
13:52Oh, Dread.
13:53And then sure, isn't it?
13:55Brush, sure.
13:57Yeah.
13:57There we go.
13:58Well done.
14:00All right, well done.
14:01Your final puzzle has five words to solve.
14:02You need to spell a new five-letter word vertically.
14:05It's worth a bumper five points,
14:06and your time starts now.
14:10Ooh, hives.
14:11Mm.
14:13Er...
14:14Preen.
14:15Preen.
14:16Maybe.
14:17OK.
14:18Solar.
14:19Solar, go with that.
14:19Solar, yes, yes, yes.
14:20L, you've got the L.
14:22Flower.
14:24Oh, oh, oh.
14:25Got it.
14:26Women.
14:27Ah.
14:29Something's gone wrong.
14:31Sonar.
14:32Sonar.
14:32Venom.
14:33Ooh, OK.
14:35Venom.
14:36Oh, clever.
14:38There we are.
14:39Well played.
14:40You did not go astray.
14:41Their trip to the letterbox has scored the maximum 12.
14:44Oh, yeah.
14:44So, Sally and Mark, are you feeling confident you can improve on that?
14:48Confidence is a strong word.
14:49Yeah, confidence is a strong word.
14:50They will get their chance in a moment before that next heady dose of knockabout, fun time, puzzle along action.
14:55We've got to take a break because we're exhausted.
14:57We'll see you after this.
15:01If you want to keep puzzling, see if you can complete the vertical word to solve this thirdle.
15:08Best of luck.
15:15Puzzlers, did you manage to complete the thirdle?
15:19If you did, great puzzling.
15:25Welcome back to Celebrity Puzzling.
15:26I'm Jeremy Vine.
15:27I refuse to apologise for that.
15:28I'm still here occupying the studio, overseeing this gaggle of willing puzzlers, led as they are by Miss Vorderman and
15:37Miss Lindsay.
15:37So, it's now Sally and Mark's turn at the letterbox to play thirdle.
15:41Remember, you've got to see three words, each with the third letter missing.
15:43You've got to fill in those missing letters to spell a new word vertically.
15:47When you're ready to lock in your answer, hit the button, you'll score three points if you solve this first
15:51puzzle.
15:52Sally and Mark, here's your first.
15:53Your time starts now.
15:56Lasso.
15:56Lasso.
15:57Yes.
15:58OK.
15:58Koala.
15:59Koala.
16:00Koala.
16:01No, hanging about here.
16:02Anger.
16:03Argue.
16:03No, because it can't mark.
16:05Sags.
16:05Oh, sag.
16:06Oh, sag.
16:06I don't know, what do you think?
16:07Sag, sag.
16:07You're like my face, yeah.
16:08Sag.
16:09The speedy, off the mark so fast.
16:12Sag is right.
16:14Sagging, whatever, yeah.
16:15Yes, sagging.
16:16Anything that's like that.
16:17Yes, all that.
16:18Your second puzzle will have four words with the third letter missing and you'll need to spell a new four
16:21-letter word vertically.
16:23It's worth four, though.
16:23If you're ready, your time starts now.
16:27Taken.
16:28Yeah.
16:29Taken.
16:30Is it, erm...
16:32Genie?
16:32Genie, but that would be...
16:34OK, let's do cloth, let's do this.
16:37Orbit.
16:38Yeah.
16:38Orbit.
16:39So, what's that?
16:40Well, I don't know where you're going with this, but I don't think that's the answer.
16:42Can we have knob?
16:43Can we have knob?
16:44Yeah, we can have knob.
16:45Doorknobs?
16:45What about, what about, what about, er...
16:47Knob.
16:48You happy?
16:49Yeah.
16:50Yes!
16:52Doorknobs, knob handle.
16:54Bed knobs and broomsticks.
16:56Exactly!
16:57It's perfectly normal words.
16:59Your final puzzle has five words to solve.
17:01You've got to spell a new five-letter word.
17:02It's worth a bump of five points.
17:03Let's go.
17:04Your time starts now.
17:06Wrist.
17:07Oh.
17:08Finch.
17:09Finch.
17:10Urgh.
17:11And...
17:11Right, you do the other one.
17:13Bible.
17:13Yeah.
17:15Moody?
17:15Moody.
17:16Is it going to be Inbox?
17:18It's got to be an X, hasn't it?
17:19Inbox, X, 60.
17:20Oh, my God.
17:21Inbox.
17:21Sinking?
17:22Inbox, yeah.
17:23Oh, that's a modern word.
17:25You can't allow that.
17:26It's in the Oxford English Dictionary.
17:28Inbox is there.
17:29Yeah.
17:30Wrist Finch Bible, Moody, 60.
17:33OK, please head back to your seats.
17:35We'll see the scores.
17:40How many points did you rack up at home?
17:42Well done, Sally and Mark.
17:43Your visit to the Letterboxd scored you the maximum 12.
17:47This is a very tight contest here.
17:49You know, they're pretending to be like, oh, it's just fun.
17:51It's not.
17:52They're serious.
17:53Let's see what that's done to the overall scores.
17:55Here we go.
17:56Carol and Lucrezia on 16.
17:58Yes.
17:59Sally and Mark on 16.
18:02All said, yeah.
18:05Our celebs are about to get hot under the collar
18:07as we stride onwards to our next round.
18:09This is Heat Map.
18:12Here's how it works.
18:13So, for each puzzle in this round,
18:15the players are shown an image of a QWERTY keyboard
18:17and above the keyboard is a category.
18:19The letters in the answer are highlighted on the keyboard.
18:22All the others are greyed out.
18:24And what's more, the letters are colour-coded as follows.
18:26If it features in the answer just once, it's green.
18:29Twice, it's orange.
18:30Three or more times, it's red.
18:32Hobbyist.
18:33This is just an example.
18:34Give us a shout.
18:35At least three Ts.
18:37It could be someone like Robert Goodies.
18:39Say it out loud.
18:39Spotter.
18:40Oh, okay.
18:41Let's see if that's right.
18:42Train spotter.
18:43That's a great idea.
18:44Well done.
18:45There he is.
18:46That's how you do it.
18:48I'm surprised.
18:48There it is.
18:49Train spotter.
18:50Although, I'd say that's less a hobby, more a way of life.
18:53Sally and Mark, you're up first.
18:55Here is your first puzzle.
18:56We're playing team by team.
18:58Give it a go.
18:59Sally and Mark.
19:00Chitty, chitty, bang, bang.
19:02And we've got at least three Ts, Cs and As.
19:06It's not the child couch.
19:08That was literally my first thought as well.
19:10It's not the child couch.
19:10What else is it?
19:11What's the professor?
19:12No, it's the lead woman.
19:14It's something like, it's called Sweetie Pie or something.
19:17Oh, gosh.
19:18I don't know her name, but it's her.
19:21I know it is.
19:22It's the...
19:24Three Cs.
19:25It's something like...
19:26Cracticus Potts.
19:27Is it Cracticus Potts?
19:28OK, go for it.
19:29Cracticus Potts.
19:32Cracticus Potts is your answer.
19:33Is that really the art?
19:35Cracticus Potts?
19:37Oh!
19:39Wow.
19:41Who was Cracticus Potts?
19:43He was the inventor, wasn't it, in the shed?
19:44Yes.
19:45Who wrote Chitty, Chitty, Bang, Bang, the book?
19:48No idea.
19:48Is it someone like Fleming?
19:49Ian Fleming.
19:50Ian Fleming.
19:50Really?
19:51Yeah.
19:51Yeah, you can't have any points there.
19:53Carol and Lucrezia, here's your first one.
19:57Hi.
19:57OK.
19:58It's my worst one.
19:58Tennis!
20:00Oh, dear.
20:01Carol doesn't like tennis.
20:02At least three A's.
20:06OK.
20:06Open.
20:07So, I was told the other day that there was someone called Pete Sampras.
20:12OK.
20:13It's not him.
20:13Gosh, it could be a tournament, it could be a person.
20:17Are we going to think it's a person?
20:19Queens, we're going to put an open, something open.
20:22Yeah, it could be like...
20:23Australian Open.
20:24Australian Open, no.
20:25Yeah, Australian Open.
20:27Yeah, that works.
20:28What's...
20:29Yeah.
20:29A-U-S-T-R-A-L.
20:32Between us, I think we might have the answer.
20:35The Australian Open.
20:37Australian Open, is it?
20:40Yes!
20:41Well done.
20:43This is a very, very good contest.
20:45There's some big brains here.
20:46Clever, clever, clever.
20:47Clever, clever, clever.
20:48Sally and Mark, here's yours.
20:51Thanksgiving dessert, please.
20:54Er, something pie.
20:55Oh, it's, erm...
20:58Oh, right.
20:59Yeah, it's...
21:00Pumpkin pie?
21:01No.
21:02Pumpkin pie, yeah, you're right.
21:03Is it?
21:03Yeah, yeah, yeah.
21:03You just...
21:04Two peas.
21:04Three peas, that's right.
21:06Yeah, pumpkin pie.
21:07Well done.
21:08Brilliant.
21:09Pumpkin pie...
21:11..is right.
21:16Carol and Luquezia, here's your next one.
21:19So, insect, please.
21:23Oh, hello.
21:33Beetle.
21:34It's got to have a W in it.
21:35There's a T.
21:38Erm...
21:38Ooh.
21:39Heck.
21:40Come on.
21:41Insects.
21:41Famous insects.
21:42Yeah.
21:43So, ladybug, as they now call them.
21:46Ladybird.
21:46We need a W in there.
21:48Beetle.
21:49Cockroach.
21:51Earthworm.
21:53Earth?
21:53No, because we've got a B.
21:57Dragonfly.
21:58Oh.
21:59Oh, my gosh.
22:00Bluebottle.
22:02A witcherdy grub.
22:03No, it's got a K.
22:04Oh, hang on.
22:06No, it hasn't got the I, has it?
22:07No, no, no.
22:08Gosh.
22:10This is going to be really obvious, isn't it?
22:12Yeah, it will be really obvious, yeah.
22:14Could we have their last question, please?
22:18Yeah.
22:20Hmm.
22:20We're going to go, uh, at the end, aren't we?
22:22Earthworm.
22:23Earthworm.
22:23It's going to be, it's going to be...
22:25No, it's not that.
22:26No.
22:26It's not that.
22:27Is it earthworm?
22:28No.
22:28We know it is.
22:29Sorry.
22:30You can steal for one point, but you must answer quickly.
22:34I don't, I don't know what it is.
22:35No, it's beyond us, I think.
22:37So, no answer for me.
22:38Actually, Lucrezia was right.
22:39The W...
22:40Yeah.
22:41..is the place to start.
22:42So, what we wanted was this.
22:45Oh!
22:45Worker B!
22:47Oh!
22:47This is a contest, isn't it?
22:49It's like one mistake and you're just game over.
22:52Sally and Mark, here's your next one.
22:56Aesop's Fables.
22:58So, there's the frog and the...
23:01..where he carries it on his back across the river.
23:03There's something in the...
23:04The tortoise.
23:05The tortoise and the hare.
23:06That's the one.
23:06The hare and the tortoise.
23:09The...
23:09Yeah.
23:09It's got to be on it.
23:10The tortoise and the hare.
23:12You're saying the tortoise and the hare.
23:14Yes.
23:14Let's have a look.
23:16The tortoise and the hare.
23:18Well done.
23:19Carolyn Lucrezia, your next puzzle.
23:23Depeche Mode hit.
23:26It's got a J in it.
23:27Oh!
23:28Oh, my gosh.
23:31Just something?
23:33Yeah.
23:35Oh, my God.
23:35I'm going to actually kick myself if I do not get this
23:39because I have seen Depeche Mode in concert
23:43and they were fantastic.
23:45And I think this is probably a very, very famous song.
23:47It will be.
23:48And I'm experiencing a major mind blank.
23:50And I don't know any of them.
23:53If they are 70s, I'd know.
23:56I think I know it.
23:57Go on.
23:58I think.
23:58I think I'm going to guess.
24:00OK.
24:01Just Can't Get Enough.
24:02I think you might be right.
24:03Is it Just Can't Get Enough?
24:05Well done.
24:07Really good puzzling there.
24:10Well done, you.
24:11At the end of that round of heat map,
24:12it's Carol and Lucrezia who are cooling down
24:15a little bit with 20.
24:16Sally and Mark are on 22.
24:18Oh, nothing in it.
24:20Still nothing in it.
24:22In this game, you can catch up in the last round.
24:25To say the least, viewers, it is with great sadness.
24:28I must reveal we've reached the end of part two
24:30of Celebrity Puzzle.
24:31Please respect my privacy at this difficult time.
24:33And stay tuned for part three.
24:39Have a go at this up or down puzzle.
24:41Shift one letter, one space up or down in the alphabet
24:44to solve the clue and reveal the answer.
24:46Best of luck.
24:53Here's the solution to your up or down puzzle.
24:57If you got it right, well done.
25:02Welcome back to Celebrity Puzzling.
25:04Your commitment has not gone unnoticed.
25:06Thus far, our team captains, Carol and Sally,
25:08have been joined by Lucrezia Millerini and Mark Charnock
25:12to try to solve some puzzles.
25:13Results mixed so far, it's fair to say,
25:16from the magnificent to the meh.
25:18Now we'll see what our guests are made of, OK, both?
25:21Lucrezia and Mark are about to take on
25:24a Celebrity Puzzle guest head-to-head
25:26as they play Up or Down.
25:30This is tricky now.
25:32This is how it works.
25:33You see a clue plus a series of letters on the screen.
25:36Each letter has been moved either up or down by one step.
25:38For example, if the letter B appears,
25:40it means it's actually an A or a C.
25:42So here we have the clue Mexican food.
25:44We know A must be either a Z or a B, correct.
25:48You can't go back.
25:50And, by the way, both Qs in this example
25:53will either be P's or R's.
25:56So they will go the same way.
25:58Yeah, OK.
25:59Anyone?
26:00Borito.
26:01Borito.
26:02Oh!
26:03Very cute.
26:05Oh, Lucrezia's got it straight away.
26:07Oh, this is immediately terrifying.
26:08No, that'll be it for me now, Mark.
26:09Don't worry.
26:10That's how you do it.
26:11Well done.
26:12OK, that example has been wrapped up.
26:14We can get on with the round proper.
26:15It's on the buzzer between you,
26:17so it couldn't be more high stakes.
26:20Well done, Lucrezia.
26:21That's a good posture.
26:22It is.
26:23I'm ready.
26:23You see how it works.
26:24I don't like doing this.
26:25Five to solve.
26:26Guests only.
26:27I feel incredibly exposed.
26:28We've had to put several microphones on Carol
26:29because she's been known to whisper,
26:31but she stopped.
26:32I'm cheating.
26:33Lucrezia and Marcus, your first one.
26:35Here it comes.
26:37Category is nationality.
26:41Lucrezia, straight in.
26:42French.
26:44Is it French?
26:45No.
26:46I don't know what it is.
26:47No.
26:48Oh, OK, for a steal, Mark.
26:50So, yes, I think it's G or I.
26:53Quickly, please.
26:55Within seconds or you get buzzed out.
26:57Let's have a look at the answer.
27:00German!
27:01I was close with France, French.
27:03I was worried for a moment it was going to be Italian.
27:05I thought that as well.
27:07I know.
27:07As soon as I said French and I got it wrong,
27:09I said, oh, it's going to be Italian, isn't it?
27:11Fingers on buzzers.
27:12Here's the next one for you.
27:13All right, then.
27:14Get the system.
27:14Very competitive.
27:16Category is gentle sport.
27:18So, the C can be a B or a D.
27:29We've got C and V.
27:31Oh, OK.
27:33Lucretia.
27:34Bowling.
27:35Is it bowling?
27:37Ah.
27:38Oh, she's good.
27:40You are so good.
27:41She's good.
27:42That's really impressive.
27:43Get ready.
27:44Here's the next one.
27:48Seven letters.
27:49U.S. sitcom.
27:58The G can be F.
28:00Oh, yeah.
28:01Friends?
28:01Is it friends?
28:04No.
28:05Oh, no, no, no.
28:05Over to Lucretia, but quickly.
28:07To Steele.
28:08Frasier?
28:10Frasier.
28:10Oh, well done.
28:11Oh, yeah.
28:12Very good.
28:14That's a good answer.
28:15Well done.
28:16Action stations, time for another.
28:19Oh, eight letters.
28:21Nightclub.
28:22The I can be an H or J.
28:25Oh.
28:27Nightclub?
28:29Nightclub.
28:30Oh.
28:31I-B-D, it starts.
28:35OK.
28:37Lucretia?
28:37Hacienda.
28:38Hacienda.
28:39Oh, my goodness.
28:40Yes, well done.
28:42That is a special thing.
28:42Is that Manchester?
28:43Was that...
28:44I was in there from the age of 15 to 18.
28:47Mick Huttnell stood on me foot once.
28:49Oh, wow.
28:50What a place.
28:51Here's the final one for you.
28:53Only at one club, that's the reason I knew it.
28:55So, nine letters.
28:57European city.
28:59Oh.
28:59C-T-D, it starts.
29:02The C can be a B or a D.
29:04Yeah.
29:05Ends F-R-U.
29:08Nine letters.
29:09Come on.
29:12Um...
29:13Oh, dear.
29:16Oh, it's going for us.
29:18Mark.
29:19Bucharest?
29:20Yeah.
29:20I think you might be right.
29:21Is it Bucharest?
29:23Yeah.
29:23Oh, he's pulling back.
29:24He's pulling back.
29:26Bucharest, the capital of...
29:28Romania.
29:28Romania.
29:29Well done, Lucrezia and Mark.
29:31That's that.
29:32That was like a sort of game of squash.
29:34Shit on that one.
29:35Rapid.
29:36Lucrezia scored five.
29:38Mark scored two.
29:39Let's put them into the scoreboards.
29:41It's a hard, hard round.
29:42Sally and Mark now have 24.
29:45Carol and Lucrezia have pulled past them on 25.
29:48Oh, my God.
29:49He's so sick.
29:51It's that, it's...
29:52It really is.
29:53Six, seven.
29:54Six, seven.
29:55I hope you managed to get a few of those at home if you did well played.
29:57They are not easy.
29:59And once you go astray, you go up and you should be down.
30:02You're just sunk.
30:03Our next puzzle tonight, tests, not only our brain power but our vocabulary too.
30:08This is called In Other Words.
30:12So, I'll explain.
30:13I'll show you the initials to the answer and written inside each initial, you'll see synonyms
30:17for that word.
30:18From the synonyms, you've got to work out what the letters stand for.
30:20So, here we have HB, awful, terrible, horrifying.
30:23That's the H.
30:24The B is four men, rulers, managers.
30:27So, take it.
30:28This is just the example.
30:29Mark.
30:30Horrible bosses.
30:31Is it horrible bosses?
30:32Yeah.
30:34Sally and Mark, I'll let you start.
30:35OK.
30:36OK.
30:36Here's your first In Other Words for one point.
30:39Two letters, HP.
30:41The words spicy, blazing, sizzling, spud, tatty, mash.
30:52Hot.
30:53Hot.
30:54And spud is potato, hot potato.
30:58Hot potato.
31:00Yeah.
31:01One point.
31:01Well done.
31:02Carolyn requesting is your first.
31:05So, stay ahead.
31:06LB.
31:07Lawfully, legitimately, admissibly, fair, yellow, light.
31:19I think it's legally blonde.
31:21Blonde.
31:22Yeah.
31:23Legally blonde.
31:24Legally blonde?
31:26Yes.
31:27Very good.
31:27Very good.
31:30OK, Sally and Mark, you'll get fewer synonyms this time,
31:32but it's worth two points.
31:34Here we go.
31:35Only a couple of words each.
31:36AG.
31:37Wonderful, stunning, elegance, poise.
31:49Amazing Grace?
31:50Yes.
31:51Amazing Grace.
31:53Amazing Grace, they say.

33:12OK, you're whipping through this.
33:14Oh, my Lord.
33:15This is fast, you teams.
33:17We need to test you more, I think.
33:18How did you get on at home?
33:20Are you giving our celebrities a run for their money?
33:22At the end of that round, Sally and Mark have got 30 now.
33:25Carol and Lucretia have got 31.
33:27Oh!
33:29Getting tasty.
33:30This gap is weirdly tight.
33:32It's not like this every game.
33:34No, no.
33:34It's a strange one.
33:35Really, really fun.
33:35We're not catching you out at all.
33:37Only the very first questions for both of you.
33:40Yes, exactly.
33:40Time for up an ultimate round.
33:41In this interaction, both teams will be tackling the letterbox one at a time.
33:45The fastest team to solve their puzzle in this round will trouser two bonus points.
33:50Once trousered, they may be vital to secure victory, particularly in this game.
33:54So, it's all to play for in letterbox ladder.
33:58Let's see how it works.
34:00You will see three key words appear on the screen.
34:02There they are.
34:03Doggy, pipe, team.
34:05In between, there are a series of spaces.
34:07You've got to find words that connect them.
34:09So, using the letters at the top, you want doggy something, but the something's got to go with pipe.
34:14Doggy bag.
34:15Doggy bag.
34:16OK, bagpipe.
34:17Yes.
34:17Pipe dream.
34:17Yeah.
34:18Pipe dream.
34:18Dream team.

34:20And then look at the other letters available.
34:21Team game.
34:22Team game.
34:23Yeah, well done.
34:24Doggy bag, bagpipe, pipe dream, dream team, team game.
34:27That's how it works.
34:28As always, you'll be against the clock.
34:30So, there's a winner in this round.
34:31The ladder can be solved in any order, and as soon as you've solved the entire puzzle,
34:36you must hit the button to stop the clock.
34:38You score two points per solved word.
34:40If you complete all three words faster than your opponents, you'll receive two bonus points.

38:43No, I can't see it.
38:43No.
38:44Oh.
38:45Oh, no.
38:46It's hot.

38:49So, think about space here.

39:05Oh, they have been so beastly.

39:12I don't know what to say, Mark, but the teams remain close.
39:15Head back to your seats.
39:17We'll see what the scores are.
39:23So, Sally and Mark, you managed to add two points to your score.
39:26Carol and Lucrezia won the bonus, though, with two points extra.
39:30So, going into the final, let's have a look at the overall scores.
39:33Sally and Mark on 32.
39:36Carol and Lucrezia on 39 now.
39:41Come on.
39:43All right, it comes down to this.
39:45It's time for our final round.
39:46The round.
39:47It is Answer Bank.
39:51Sally and Mark, you've got some catching up to do.
39:53It's for all four of you to play on the buzzers.
39:56In a moment, I'll show you a grid of 12 words.
39:57I'll then ask questions against the clock, buzz in and give me the correct answer, which may be lateral, like
40:02a crossword clue.
40:04If an answer has more than one word, you must give all the corresponding words in the correct order.
40:07You'll score a point per word, so it could add up to winning or losing the whole show.
40:11I'm sure it will.
