00:09Happy Thursday, everybody. Welcome back to Redemption Week on House of Games.
00:14Tomorrow, we're giving away this trophy right here.
00:17There's just one point in it at the moment.
00:19Shall we meet our four players once again?
00:21They are Geoff Norcott, Karen Hauer, Michelle Ackerley and Katie Derham.
00:29Hey, everyone. Katie, two wins in a row.
00:31I know.
00:32But then Geoff nips in and beats you by a point yesterday.
00:35It was very close, wasn't it?
00:36It was, you know, everything's to play for, Richard, isn't that what they say?
00:40Well, listen, let's take a look at, very close, the leaderboard across the week.
00:44You are one point clear at the moment of Geoff.
00:47Today, we've got double points Friday as well.
00:49Geoff, how are you feeling about that?
00:50Lovely to get the little something off your shoulders here with the win.
00:54Yes, I mean, I don't want to engage in the poverty of low expectations,
00:57but I've done what I came to do.
00:59I'm going to sort of relax, phone it in a little bit, just enjoy the view.
01:03Do you know what?
01:04I was planning to phone it in today and it's hard if two of us are phoning it in.
01:08Karen and Michelle, you are also very close to each other on this leaderboard,
01:12but it is Redemption Week and neither of you have yet achieved redemption.
01:16Two days to go, two days to do it, Karen.
01:18You can do this.
01:19I'm staying positive, but I quite like being in the back.
01:24That is a huge stroke of luck.
01:26I'm feeling very comfortable.
01:28I don't feel any pressure.
01:30I like to see these two battle it out.
01:31Nice to watch it, right?
01:32I like to just hang out with Michelle.
01:34Same, Karen.
01:34I mean, give me a cup of tea.
01:38We've all got comfy chairs.
01:39Yeah.
01:39We've got a nice company.
01:41And we can just watch Katie and Geoff knock chunks out of each other.
01:44Yes.
01:44I can see that.
01:46Michelle, shall we take a look at today's prizes?
01:48Yes, please.
01:49Today's prizes are the backpack, the decanter, the water bottle, the salt and pepper shakers and the House of Games
01:58bicycle repair kit.
02:00What would you go for, Michelle?
02:02So, you know the salt and pepper shakers?
02:04I do.
02:04They've got a button on the top.
02:05They do.
02:06Yes, please.
02:07Yes, you go for that.
02:08Yeah.
02:09Lovely.
02:09That's great.
02:10It doesn't do anything, but it is a button.
02:11It doesn't work, but no.
02:13Katie?
02:14What's in the decanter, Richard?
02:15I've got to ask.
02:16Nothing at all other than hope and expectations.
02:19Hopes and dreams.
02:20Yeah.
02:20I'll have some of them.
02:21Have some of those.
02:22Karen?
02:22The backpack.
02:24No-one's ever said backpack in that way before.
02:26The backpack?
02:27Yeah.
02:28Good.
02:28Mmm.
02:29Geoff, what would you go for?
02:30I need a rucksack, is the truth of it.
02:32Perfectly.
02:33Although you didn't say, mmm, rucksack.
02:34Mmm, rucksack.
02:36There we go.
02:37Let's get on, shall we?
02:38Katie has won two.
02:39Geoff has won one.
02:40Who's winning today?
02:41Let's find out.
02:45Our first round is Correction Centre.
02:47Geoff, I'm going to start with you.
02:48I'm going to give you an incorrect statement.
02:49If you change one word, you're going to make that statement correct.
02:52Okay.
02:52Here is your incorrect statement.
02:55The Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building are two examples of the Art Garfunkel
03:00architectural style.
03:03It's not my...
03:04I know which word is wrong.
03:06I'm not 100% confident that I'm right in this, but I'm going to go...
03:09Which word do you think is wrong?
03:11Well, uh, Garfunkel.
03:12You think Garfunkel is wrong?
03:13I don't think he built that many buildings.
03:15You don't think?
03:16At the end of the day.
03:16Not enough.
03:17He built a bridge, didn't he, over Trouble Waters?
03:21Um, I'm going to go Deco.
03:23Okay, change Garfunkel to Deco, is that correct?
03:26It is.
03:27Yes, nicely done.
03:29Nicely done.
03:30Karen, I have an incorrect statement for you.
03:32I wonder if you could fix it.
03:34The Royal Marines evolved from a school established by a dancer,
03:37Ninette de Valois, in 1926 and moved to the Royal Opera House
03:40in Covent Garden after the Second World War.
03:42What do you want to do for?
03:46Marines, uh, to the Royal Ballet.
03:50Change Marines to ballet?
03:51That's absolutely right.
03:55Michelle, I have an incorrect statement for you.
03:59In the Back to the Future trilogy,
04:00Marty McFly travels through time
04:02with the help of eccentric scientist James Brown.
04:06So, James, is it Doc?
04:09Yeah, Doc Brown, absolutely.
04:11I think Doc Emmett Brown would have taken that as well,
04:13but, yeah, Doc Brown.
04:14Change James to Doc.
04:17Everyone's doing very well.
04:18Katie.
04:19Until?
04:20I have something incorrect for you.
04:21It needs your attention.
04:23On UK roads, a triangular white sign with a red border
04:25instructs drivers to give chase to traffic on a major road.
04:30I've just been teaching one of my daughters to drive,
04:32and that's quite appropriate, actually.
04:35I think chase is wrong, and it's give way.
04:37Give way is absolutely right.
04:42Jeff, an incorrect statement for you.
04:44With his bright orange body and disproportionately long arms,
04:47Mr Vane is one of Roger Hargreaves' best-loved characters.
04:52Yeah, I don't know the answer to this.
04:54I mean, that's tricky, because it could be literally any...
04:56Yeah, I've got an idea.
05:01Erm...
05:01With his bright...
05:03OK, OK.
05:05Mr...
05:05Mr Wobbly?
05:07Change Vane to Wobbly.
05:09Incorrect, I'm afraid.
05:10Anyone want to buzz in?
05:11Katie.
05:12Change Vane to Tickle.
05:14Change Vane to Tickle.
05:15It is Mr Tickle, one of Roger Hargreaves' best-loved characters.
05:19Karen, here's one for you.
05:23To warn people of an imminent explosion,
05:25it is customary to shout Toad in the Hole just before detonation.
05:34Change Toad to Fire in the Hole.
05:36Change Toad to Fire is absolutely right.
05:40Toad in the Hole.
05:41Change Toad to Fire sounds like a proper something from the witch's handbook.
05:45Yeah.
05:46Michelle, Michelle, I have one for you.
05:49A well-known fact about William Wallace is that in his will,
05:53he left his second-best bed to his wife, Anne.
05:59Erm...
06:00Bed...
06:02..to Sword?
06:04Incorrect, I'm afraid.
06:06Anybody?
06:08Jeff.
06:09Er, Wallace to Shakespeare, I think.
06:11Is Wallace to Shakespeare?
06:12Absolutely right.
06:13That is William Shakespeare, left his second-best bed to his wife, Anne.
06:16We finish with Katie.
06:19Can you fix this for us?
06:21In the 1980s, Chicago was home to house-building pioneers
06:25such as Frankie Knuckles and Steve Silk Hurley.
06:31I'm way out of my comfort zone, but is it house-building is wrong?
06:35And were they, like, the fathers of kind of rap and hip-hop?
06:39We need to change one word to something new.
06:42Oh, well, then, that's all wrong, isn't it?
06:44I've got everything wrong, then.
06:48Erm...
06:49You've beaten me.
06:50You've beaten me, OK.
06:51We'll time you out.
06:52We've got a buzzer raised by Anne.
06:54Michelle.
06:55Music for building.
06:57It's absolutely Frankie Knuckles, Steve Silk Hurley,
06:59with house music pioneers in Chicago in the 80s.
07:02Well done, Michelle.
07:03So, yesterday, when we started off, we just went down the line.
07:06We got eight out of eight.
07:07Today, though, three people got it wrong.
07:10Lots of people buzzed in.
07:11So, an awful lot going on.
07:12Let's take a look at the leaderboard.
07:15It's 2-2-2-2.
07:17So, whoever got one wrong, different people stole it.
07:20Everyone has got two points.
07:22Listen, however, we get to 2-2-2-2.
07:24That is where we ask, shall we play a pairs game?
07:27Our pairs game today is...
07:31You felt terrible.
07:33Geoff, you are trailing at the moment.
07:36You're in joint last place.
07:37Who would you like to play with?
07:39Well, I think just because we haven't moved at all this week,
07:42I'll pair up with Katie.
07:44How dare you?
07:46See, that was my biggest fear.
07:48This hurts my feelings.
07:49That would have been my biggest fear as well.
07:52So, Geoff and Michelle, if you will swap seats, please.
07:56I'm going to call your wife.
08:01Michelle and Karen, you are a team.
08:03Geoff and Katie, you are a team.
08:05In this round, I'll ask you a series of questions.
08:07If you buzz in and give me the correct answer,
08:08your partner must then spell that answer for you to get a point.
08:11OK. OK.
08:12Here is your first question.
08:14Fingers on buzzers, everyone.
08:17Which large reptile follows See You Later
08:19in the title of a UK Top Ten hit by Bill Haley and his comets?

08:29For the point for your team, Karen, can you spell alligator?

09:00It is Keir.
09:01Katie, for the point, can you spell Keir?
09:05K-I-E-R.
09:07It's incorrect.
09:08It is incorrect, I'm afraid.
09:10We don't pass it across.
09:11K-E-I-R.
09:13I'm afraid.
09:13Again, when you see it written, you're like, of course it is.
09:16But then, equally, if it had been the other way round, I'd have gone, of course it is.
09:20Yes, exactly.
09:21Well done to our question writers.
09:23That was mean of them.
09:23So, here is your next question.
09:33Yes, Geoff.

10:54P-
10:55E-
10:56L.
10:58No.
10:58That's incorrect, I'm afraid.
10:59You're missing an L on the end.
11:01There's another one.
11:02But you've got the two Ps, at least.
11:04Here's your next one.

16:34Katie Derham, eight points.
16:36Come on, Katie.
16:39Let's find out what our next round is, shall we?
16:44Question writers day off.
16:46You know, I saw some cards here and I thought, I hope it's question writers day off.
16:49And it is.
16:50Whenever we give our question writers a day off, which doesn't happen often, but yeah, Christmas,
16:54occasionally things like that, their children write the questions for us.
16:57Okay?
16:58So, all of these questions have been written by children or relatives of our question writers.
17:02Jeff, whose question would you like?
17:05They also always, they write me a little thing about why they asked a particular question
17:08to you.
17:09Aw.
17:11Um, Parker, cool name.
17:13Parker, six.
17:13You're going to go for Parker, six years old Parker.
17:16This is Parker's question.
17:18Who built the Eiffel Tower?
17:22The Americans.
17:23The Americans, is that correct?
17:26It is not.
17:27Anybody else fancy it?
17:29Yes, Katie.
17:30I'm thinking it's Monsieur Eiffel.
17:32Is it Mr Eiffel?
17:35That's exactly who it is.
17:37Parker says,
17:38We learnt about it at school and I made a cardboard model of it.
17:41It's funny because his name is the same as the tower.
17:44Oh, God.
17:45That is funny.
17:46The same level, mate.
17:47Yeah, that is funny.
17:48Parker, thank you so much.
17:49Karen, whose question would you like?
17:51Um, I'm going to go with Alba, who's three.
17:54Alba, why did I know you were going to go with Alba?
17:58Oh, because it might be easy.
18:02Or not.
18:03Oh, no.
18:03I've never seen this round before.
18:05Alba asks,
18:06In the Gruffalo, which animal lives in the underground house?
18:10Oh, the Gruffalo?
18:12Is it the Gruffalo?
18:14It's not.
18:15Anybody fancy it?
18:17Yes, Michelle.
18:18Mouse?
18:18Is it a mouse?
18:20Oh.
18:20It is not.
18:22Anybody? Katie fancy it?
18:24Oh, Jeff's gone.
18:25Uh, mole?
18:26Is it a mole?
18:27That's a guess.
18:28No, it is not.
18:29Katie?
18:32Literally 20 years, I think, since I've read this.
18:36Was there some sort of spider?
18:38Is it a spider?
18:41Alba, you have done so well.
18:43Nobody knew the answer at all.
18:45Shall we take a look at the answer?
18:46Yes.
18:48The fox.
18:49The fox lives in the underground house.
18:52I will never forget this question.
18:53Yeah.
18:54Ever.
18:54You'll never forget Alba.
18:55I'm going to get the fox tattooed on me.
18:57That's a really good idea.
18:58Don't get tattoos, Alba.
19:01Would you like to hear Alba's note of that question?
19:04Absolutely.
19:04Alba's note is,
19:05My mummy loves foxes.
19:07Aw.
19:08Aw.
19:09I love Alba.
19:10Michelle, whose question would you like?
19:12I'll go with Hector.
19:15You're going to go with Hector.
19:19Ah, Hector's given you multiple choice.
19:22Nice.
19:23He asks,
19:23How do steam engine machines move?
19:26We don't have an A here.
19:28We've got a B, a D and a C.
19:30OK?
19:31Hector,
19:31I like the way you think.
19:33I like the way you think.
19:34Being Hector.
19:34Hector says,
19:35The engine turns a string.
19:36That's option B.
19:38Option D,
19:39The steam makes a piston go up and down.
19:41Option C,
19:42It just goes.
19:45These are brilliant answers.
19:47I'll go for D,
19:49The steam makes a piston go up and down.
19:51You're going to go for D.
19:51Is that correct?
19:53It is very well done.
19:55It is very well done.
19:57Hector,
19:58I've got my eye on you now for future questions.
20:00That's an absolute cracker.
20:01Hector says,
20:02I got a book on amazing machines from the library
20:04and it told me things.
20:05It certainly did.
20:07Nice.
20:07Katie,
20:08whose question would you like?
20:10I've got a feeling that Sadie's going to have a sassy question.
20:13Sadie,
20:14has Sadie got a sassy question,
20:15I wonder.
20:16Yeah.
20:18Sadie's question is this.
20:20What do red pandas eat?
20:24I don't know if they eat anything different from other pandas.
20:27I may be wrong,
20:28but I'm going to go for bamboo.
20:29We're going to go for bamboo.
20:31Absolutely.
20:32Mainly leaves and bamboo.
20:34Mainly leaves and bamboo.
20:35This is Sadie's note.
20:38I've got to say,
20:39you're unbelievably lucky, Sadie.
20:41Sadie says,
20:41I love red pandas.
20:42They're really cute.
20:43And,
20:44I once got to feed one at the zoo.
20:47Oh,
20:47that's so cool, Sadie.
20:48That is very cool.
20:50Presumably,
20:50bamboo and leaves,
20:51I'm guessing.
20:53Geoff,
20:53we come back to you.
20:55How old is your son?
20:56He's nine,
20:57so for that reason,

21:00Legend of the game,
21:01Nola.
21:02Thank you,
21:03Nola.
21:04Nola says,
21:04how many guesses are you allowed each day
21:06in a game of Wordle?
21:07Well,
21:08I,
21:09given I don't know the answer,
21:11I'm going to go with
21:13as many as you like.
21:14As many as you like?
21:15That's incorrect.
21:16I'm afraid anyone fancy this?
21:19Katie.
21:19Six.
21:20Six.
21:21It is six.
21:23Absolutely,
21:24Katie gets herself a point.
21:26Nola says,
21:27let's have a little guess
21:27about whether Nola's family
21:28or middle class.
21:29Nola says,
21:30we all do it after breakfast
