00:00Hello, I'm Jeremy Vine, and welcome to the only show on TV
00:03where the guests unravel quicker than the answers.
00:06Want to see some famous faces becoming discombobulated
00:09before your very eyes?
00:10Well, you're in luck, because this is Celebrity Puzzling.
00:31Hello, and welcome to Celebrity Puzzling.
00:33Two teams of celebrities are about to confront
00:35six confounding rounds of puzzling action
00:38where only the strongest survive.
00:40So let's meet our two incredible team captains.
00:43One of our nation's finest polymaths, emphasis on the maths,
00:48it is the human calculator that is Carol Borderman.
00:51No less.
00:54And Alta Vita, once more, is one of our nation's most accomplished actors,
00:57comedy, drama, acting like she's interested in my silly jokes.
01:02She can do it all.
01:03It's Sally Lindsay!
01:05For which two guests, both prodded with a fickle finger of fame,
01:10will be playing with them tonight?
01:11Well, on Carol's team is a booking of truly biblical proportions.
01:16Kate Botley.
01:18Good to see you, Kate.
01:19And on Sally's team is an actor who's been on both Corrie and Emmerdale.
01:23He's sure to bring the drama today.
01:25It's Chris Bisson.
01:26Welcome, everyone!
01:28Fantastic.
01:30So, how are you, Chris?
01:31How are you feeling?
01:32Good, yeah.
01:33Apprehensive.
01:34You've worked with Sally before?
01:35I've dragged him here, haven't I?
01:37I've worked with Sally.
01:38We were on Coronation Street many moons ago.
01:40About 400 years ago.
01:42Is it 20?
01:43It's more than that.
01:43It's nearly a quarter of a century.
01:45Yeah.
01:45You'll be at the turn of the millennium.
01:48Kate, so you've got so many strings to your bow,
01:51and you and I know each other from Radio 2.
01:52Actually, let's talk about Radio 2.
01:53Yeah.
01:54Because there's a lovely job where you play records for a living.
01:56Isn't that great?
01:57Isn't it the best job in the world?
01:58I mean, I just love it.
01:59I sneak in a lot of country music under the radar.
02:02But also a lot of 90s hip-hop.
02:04No-one's really wanted to listen to Dr Dre at quarterback.
02:07I'll tune in.
02:08I listen to Dr Dre.
02:09I love Dr Dre.
02:10OK, in every episode of Celebrity Puzzling,
02:12our teams face six rounds.
02:14They've been picked at random from the dozens dreamed up
02:16by our crack team of devious question writers.
02:19And that's my dramatic way of telling you,
02:20no two contests are ever the same.
02:22Our players don't need to concern themselves
02:24with such minor details, though,
02:26because all you folks need to do now
02:27is score as many points as possible.
02:29For our guest celebs,
02:30this is their one and only chance
02:32to take home our amazing Puzzling Cube.
02:36Look at that, everyone.
02:39And the way Carol revolves.
02:41And into Sally.
02:43Oh, Sally.
02:44And that's what's up for grabs.
02:46Win one of those.
02:46Take it home for keeps.
02:47Now, without further ado, let's get puzzling.
02:49Our first puzzle is tricky,
02:50no matter which way you look at it.
02:51It's time to play Shapeshifters.
02:56So let's see an example of how this works.
02:58You will see a grid of answers on the screen.
03:00There we go.
03:01That's a question.
03:02And there is a corresponding shape.
03:04You can see those squares.
03:05You've got to give me the correct answers
03:06that fit exactly inside that shape.
03:08And as we know, we love this catchphrase,
03:11you cannot, Sally...
03:12Rotate the shape, Jamie.
03:14Oh, brilliant.
03:17Every time I say it, I catch you out.
03:19It's brilliant.
03:19In this example,
03:20you're looking for grand national fences.
03:22Go on, give us one.
03:23Or two.
03:24Beachesbrook.
03:25Beachesbrook.
03:25Yeah, the chair.
03:26Canal turn.
03:27Yeah, but it's got to be in that shape, you see.
03:28Yes.
03:29It's got to be on top of each other.
03:30Yeah, canal turn and druids.
03:32Canal turn and druids.
03:33I mean, listen, I don't know.
03:34You want a cage?
03:34We were going to go
03:35Beachesbrook and a table.
03:37All right, let's see
03:37what the right answer is then.
03:40Oh!
03:41There we go, eh?
03:42So, it's Foyneven and the chair.
03:45My good...
03:46Wow.
03:46I wouldn't have known.
03:47I've never heard of Foyneven.
03:48And I'll just show you
03:50other ones that would have counted
03:51if they'd been in the right place.
03:53So, Sally and Chris, you're up first.
03:55Here is your puzzle for two points.
03:58The clue is Premier League winners.
04:00Obviously, Liverpool have won it.
04:02Spurs, I don't think so.
04:03Everton haven't.
04:04Villa haven't.
04:05Sunderland haven't.
04:06I think...
04:07They've got Newcastle.
04:09I think it's Blackburn, Rovers and Arsenal.
04:12Is it?
04:13Yeah, because I don't think New...
04:15I don't think Newcastle have won the Premier League.
04:17Oh, no, they have.
04:19Oh, they have, haven't they?
04:20I don't like me.
04:21You're the football boy.
04:23I don't know anything.
04:24They did, because Shearer was there
04:26when United were playing them.
04:28So, Liverpool and Newcastle.
04:28So, Liverpool and Newcastle.
04:30Yeah, let's go for Liverpool and Newcastle.
04:31All right.
04:32So, that's your answer.
04:33Liverpool and Newcastle.
04:34Let's see.
04:38Oh, now, Karen Kate.
04:40So, I do remember that Blackburn won.
04:44I think you were right the first time.
04:45I was.
04:46We're going.
04:46We're going.
04:47We're going.
04:48Because it's you, Brad.
04:48Blackburn, Rovers and Arsenal.
04:51You going with my original answer?
04:53Yeah.
04:54Well, let's see if they've stolen in.
04:57OK.
04:58So, actually, there's only one other Premier League winner.
05:01Liverpool is there.
05:03Mm-hm.
05:03So, it was Blackburn, Arsenal.
05:04None of the others have won it at all, ever.
05:07Carol and Kate, here's your first shapeshifters puzzle.
05:10All right.
05:11Hopefully, this won't be football.
05:12The good fairies from Disney's Sleeping Beauty.
05:16Aurora.
05:17Oh, one next to the other, please.
05:18Look at the shape.
05:19I think Meriwara and Aurora.
05:21Or was it Flora?
05:23Flora and Meriwether.
05:24I think it's Flora.
05:25Flora and Meriwether, 100%.
05:26Yeah?
05:27Yeah, 100%.
05:27You go.
05:28Flora and Meriwether.
05:30Wow, I wouldn't have got this.
05:32Is that right, Flora and Meriwether?
05:34Yay!
05:35Let's reveal.
05:36There we go.
05:37Well done, you.
05:38So, I...
05:39Yeah, do you want some other facts here?
05:41Fauna we could have taken, but not in the right position.
05:43Right.
05:44Aurora is Sleeping Beauty herself.
05:47All right, good.
05:48Sally and Chris, here we go, to score.
05:49Here's your second puzzle.
05:51The shape has increased now.
05:52So, you've got to find three answers in the grid that match the shape you'll see.
05:57Here's the category.
05:59Big five African safari animals.
06:00OK.
06:01And it's like an L shape.
06:03L shape.
06:04Three points for you now, if you get this.
06:06Well...
06:07Big five.
06:08So, porcupine and warthog are definitely...
06:11I don't know if they're safari animals, but they're definitely African.
06:13And I've heard popotomuses as well.
06:15So, I'm tempted to go zebra, elephant, lion, but not 100%.
06:22I don't think so.
06:23I think it might be cheetah, lion, giraffe, you know.
06:25OK, let's go with that.
06:26Cheetah, lion and giraffe.
06:28Cheetah, lion, giraffe is the L shape.
06:30Is it the right answer?
06:32No.
06:33Right.
06:34Go on, you can steal.
06:35I went to South Africa last year and the leopard was the one we saw on the last night coming
06:39out of the bush and that ticked off our big five.
06:41So, I know it's definitely...
06:42I'd definitely go hippo, elephant.
06:45I'm with you there.
06:45Would you?
06:46Yeah.
06:46Well, then it's leopard.
06:47Leopard, hippo, elephant.
06:49Lock it in.
06:50OK, we locked in.
06:51That's your...
06:51Lock it in, Jeremy.
06:53For a bonus point on a steal.
06:55Let's have a look and see if that's right.
06:58Oh!
07:02So, traditionally, the big five would include these three that you're about to see.
07:07Lion, buffalo, rhino.
07:11Elephant and leopard are the other two.
07:14OK, Carol and Kate for three points.
07:15Here we go.
07:16It's a good contest so far.
07:17Things eaten by the very hungry caterpillar.
07:19Oh, this is fun.
07:23Well, there you go.
07:24He definitely does put watermelon and sausage.
07:26Yeah.
07:26Go on.
07:28I don't know about that.
07:29OK, we're going to go watermelon, sausage, plums.
07:32Watermelon, sausage and plums is your answer.
07:34Let's see if you're right.
07:37Yes?
07:38I think he also did Swiss cheese in the lollipop.
07:40Well, I can tell you, he did indeed do Swiss cheese in lollipop.
07:44Yeah, that's right.
07:45So, well done, you.
07:46Watermelon, sausage, plums.
07:48I was thinking about the illustrations.
07:49Eric Carl did the illustrations, didn't he?
07:51Yes.
07:52That was good logic.
07:53Sally and Chris, your final one now.
07:56It's a slightly larger grid this time.
07:57You're still looking for three answers that match the shape.
08:00Don't rotate it.
08:01Smithies curry order in Gavin and Stacey.
08:03Chicken and rice and tuck it up.
08:06I know.
08:07Kim and her, nine Papadans lamb.
08:08I realise it?
08:10Right, I think it's...
08:11What sounds funny?
08:13Kim and her, nine Papadans lamb.
08:15Yeah.
08:15Yeah, that's what I'd say if I was writing it.
08:19Kim and her, nine Papadans lamb, an idea.
08:23Kim and her, you've got a lot.
08:24Honestly, you could imagine all of them coming out of Smithies.
08:26They're all funny, aren't they?
08:27Kim and her, nine Papadans lamb.
08:29I've got a memory of chips being in there, but let's see if you're right or not.
08:33Yes.
08:33You are right!
08:35Come on, I'm going away.
08:36I'm going to laugh at the chicken boonah.
08:38Bag of chips, Kim and her, nine Papadans.
08:40Let's just have a look at the extra ones.
08:41So, there's quite a lot in there that might have misled you,
08:43and bag of chips indeed was in there, hilariously.
08:46Carol and Kate, for three points, your final shape-shifter.
08:50Oh, here we go.
08:52Oh, I like that one.
08:53Three in a line, please.
08:55Quality Street Flavours.
08:56Now, what you've got to be careful here is some of roses
08:58and some of Quality Street.
08:59That's what they've tripped you up on here.
09:01Ooh.
09:01All right?
09:02That's what they've tripped you up on.
09:03Well, that's already confused me.
09:05See, a green triangle used to be called a Noisette Triangle.
09:08Do you remember that in those days?
09:10What is in your head?
09:12Golden, but honestly, it's like a...
09:13It's ridiculous, my head.
09:15So, the green triangle...
09:16Purple one is Quality Street.
09:17Purple one's definitely.
09:18Green triangle's definitely Quality Street.
09:20Yeah.
09:20But I'm pretty sure the golden barrel is from roses.
09:24Heavenly Honeycomb's made up, so it can't be that row.
09:26Orange cream toffee finger caramel.
09:28No, it's not a finger, is it?
09:30It's like a penny.
09:31Toffee Penny.
09:32Toffee Penny.
09:32Toffee Penny's a Quality Street.
09:34Need an answer, please.
09:34What are we going?
09:36Oh, man.
09:38Go on, let's have an answer, please.
09:38I think we go second line with the fudge.
09:41With the Strawberry Delight and the Hazel Whirl.
09:43Go on, then.
09:43Let's do that.
09:44Uh, Strawberry Delight, Hazel Whirl and Fudge.
09:48Brilliant question.
09:49Let's see if you're right.
09:52Oh, sorry.
09:53Oh.
09:55What about yourselves?
09:56I'm thinking...
09:57Steal it for a point.
09:58We're thinking the one below, aren't we?
09:59Orange cream toffee finger caramel swirl.
10:01Oh, okay.
10:02All right, let's see if you've got that.
10:04Have a look.
10:06Yes!
10:07Yes!
10:08There you are.
10:09Those are the other ones that are also...
10:10The highlighted ones are all Quality Street.
10:13The Golden Barrel, and it was absolutely right.
10:15Kate said, no, I think that's roses.
10:17It's roses.
10:18At the end of that round,
10:19Sally and Chris have got four points.
10:22Let's have a look.
10:23Carol and Kate are a shade ahead with six.
10:26All to play four.
10:28All right, these are some great questions there today as well.
10:30Are you beating our celebrities so far?
10:33Okay, it's time for our teams to try and bank some more points.
10:35This time we'll head over to the letterbox.
10:37We're going to play Word Blocks.
10:42I'll show you how it works.
10:44You will see an empty word block with just the corners filled in.
10:46You also have a number of letter tiles to choose from.
10:50You've got to pick four letters to spell out four words.
10:52Two horizontally, two vertically.
10:55You want to have a go with those letters?
10:57Opt.
10:58Tat.
10:58And or.
10:59Opt.
11:01Or.
11:01O-R-E.
11:03Eat and tot.
11:04Eat.
11:05Eat.
11:06Eat.
11:06Tot.
11:07Eat.
11:08That's right, so it's gone green.
11:09The B wasn't necessary.
11:10So it's like that.
11:11There's an extra letter in,
11:12and there may be more extra letters as we go through the round.
11:14It's worth three points.
11:15As ever, you're against the clock,
11:17so let's start with Sally and Chris.
11:18If you could hold hands with your partners,
11:20because we don't want anyone getting lost,
11:21do head to the letterbox.
11:26So when you are happy with your answer,
11:28make sure you hit the red button over there.
11:30Good luck to you both.
11:31Your time starts now.
11:32OK.
11:33Van.
11:34Van.
11:34Nod.
11:35Nod.
11:36And.
11:37And.
11:38Via.
11:39Via.
11:39Via.
11:40Via, yep.
11:41Yes.
11:42Back to the nerds.
11:43Back to the nerds.
11:44Bang on.
11:45The only possible solution.
11:46But your next word block will be a tiny bit harder,
11:49because we're giving you more letters to choose from,
11:51so there are more red herrings,
11:52and this puzzle is worth four points.
11:55Reveal the puzzle.
11:56Your time starts now.
11:59OK.
12:01What's that one?
12:02Ech.
12:03One.
12:04Elk.
12:04No, it's not elk, is it?
12:05What can it be?
12:07What is that?
12:08Um.
12:10Um.
12:10Er.
12:13Owl.
12:14Owl.
12:14Owl.
12:14Yeah.
12:15Let.
12:16Let.
12:16No, no, it's not.
12:17That's not.
12:17What is that word?
12:18What is that word?
12:18What can it be?
12:19Don't know what that is.
12:20What can it be?
12:21Ech.
12:21Ech.
12:21What can it be?
12:22Is echy a word?
12:23But what does that make that?
12:25The only way it worked was with the let, wasn't it?
12:28But that doesn't work, because it's not a word.
12:30What is that word?
12:31Ech?
12:31I think we have to go with the original.
12:34I think we go with that and press the button and see what happens.
12:37OK.
12:38Ech, no, but there is a word, eek,
12:40as in he eked out a living doing broadcasting.
12:43Oh, I thought that was double E-K.
12:45E-K-E.
12:47E-K is an expression.
12:48Ech is an expression.
12:48Ech is an expression.
12:48Let's just see.
12:49Oh, then it's lie, isn't it?
12:50That's lie.
12:51Yeah.
12:52And the G and the T were whatever, red herrings.
12:55We'll need the G and T for later.
12:56Yeah, the G and the T.
12:57That's right.
12:58Let's save that for later, guys.
13:00The final word block is the hardest yet,
13:02so just three letter words on each side of the square,
13:06but even more spare letters.
13:07So this one is worth a massive five points.
13:09You can recover completely with this next one.
13:10And your time starts now.
13:13OK, and?
13:14Lots of letters.
13:15Erm, E...
13:18Ooh.
13:20E-S-G-E-M-G-E-F-E-D-G.
13:24What does that mean?
13:25I don't know.
13:26I think we'll stay there, but, yeah, I think, er...
13:29Was that...
13:30Ooh, no, D...
13:31Guy.
13:32Guy.
13:33Possibly.
13:34Erm...
13:35Have we got any more vowels?
13:36No.
13:37Er, D, er...
13:40Time running out.
13:41G, G...
13:43What have we got here?
13:44No, no.
13:44I don't know what that is.
13:45What can it be?
13:46What's up here?
13:47We haven't got any...
13:48G.
13:48We've got a word without vowels here, haven't we?
13:50What can that be?
13:51Is it the...
13:52What can it be?
13:53Can't be what can it be.
13:55The...
13:56Something...
13:57I'm running short.
13:58Dry, dry, dry.
13:58Dry.
13:59Oh!
14:00Take a look at this one here.
14:01You're going to kick yourself so hard.
14:03Egg.
14:04Egg?
14:04Oh, no.
14:05I know you know it.
14:05I know you know it.
14:06End, dry, guy, egg, and...
14:08I probably wouldn't get egg.
14:10Your visit to the letterbox has scored you three points,
14:13so you are starting the surge.
14:15Carol and Kate will get your chance to play word block
14:17in just a moment, whether you want to or not.
14:20Before you do, it's time for a quick ad break.
14:22Perhaps you should spend these few minutes talking tactics.
14:24We'll see you all after this.
14:29Can you complete the vertical word that solves this thirdle?
14:35Happy puzzling.
14:43Puzzlers, did you manage to complete the thirdle?
14:47If you did, great job.
14:52Welcome back to Celebrity Puzzling.
14:54It's time to throw ourselves enthusiastically into part two of the show.
14:57While both of our teams are still on speaking terms.
15:00So, Carol and Kate, here you are.
15:02As I promised, you now get your chance to bank some points
15:04by taking a turn at the letterbox.
15:06You'll also be playing word blocks, which, if nothing else, seems fair.
15:09You've seen how it works.
15:11Just remember, you've got to hit the red button
15:12when you're happy with your answers.
15:15Carol and Kate, here's your first word block.
15:17Your time starts now.
15:25And it's right.
15:28And it's right.
16:04What else could that be?
16:07I?
16:10Yes?
16:11Go on. You're right. So you've got it bang on. Well done.
16:15And quickly as well. Kate, you're loving this, aren't you?
16:17I'm just loving standing next to Carol Boyd.
16:20It's like all my dreams are coming through.
16:23Well, that's also a bonus. Yeah, that's true.
16:25So your final word block is the hardest yet.
16:27Still just three-letter words on each side,
16:29even more spare letters to choose from.
16:31So red herring grand central, OK?
16:34This word block is worth five. Your time starts now.
16:39OK, that could be pad or pud.
16:42OK. Hub. Hub.
16:43Yeah. So let's do that pad.
16:46Let's go... What about that?
16:49D-I-Y, braai.
16:51No, no, no. Braai?
16:53So a braai is what they say in Australia for a barbecue, isn't it?
16:56I'm not sure it is, but if you say it is... Bib.
17:00Well, what could that be?
17:01That could be bib. That could be dib.
17:04And bib. And bib.
17:05Dib.
17:06Dib.
17:08Yep.
17:09Are we saying dibs?
17:11I don't think that's right.
17:12That's bib, though, isn't it?
17:13Ten seconds. Bib is a bib.
17:15Oh, yeah, of course it is.
17:16What do you think?
17:17I'm locking it in.
17:19You're locking this in? Yeah.
17:20Why not? I think it's B-I-Y.
17:22Don't watch out for time.
17:23Do you think it's that?
17:23I think it's...
17:24Oh! Oh, no!
17:26Oh, man! No!
17:27Don't laugh, you do.
17:29I'm not laughing. I would describe it.
17:30I will.
17:31Oh, I reckon you got it right.
17:33I think we got it right.
17:34I lost us five points by arguing with you.
17:38And it's true, Kate did say the words,
17:40I want to lock it in quite a long time ago.
17:42I know.
17:43So, oh, but it makes a...
17:45What's dib, then?
17:46Well, it's when you say you've got a choice.
17:47You can have first dibs.
17:48Yeah. Sorry, Kate.
17:49But it makes a contest for us.
17:51Let's head back to our seats.
17:57How many puzzles did you solve at home?
17:59Carol and Kate, your visit to the letterbox scored you seven points,
18:03so let us see what that's done to our scores.
18:05Sally and Chris on seven.
18:08Carol and Kate on 13.
18:11It's fine. It's fine.
18:13It's coming your way. I can feel it.
18:15So now it's time for a puzzle that'll test your code-breaking skill,
18:18if indeed you have any. So we are going to play cypher.
18:25Let's have a look at an example.
18:26So I'll give you a category clue and then show you the puzzle you have to solve,
18:30which is concealed by a code of symbols.
18:33If you get it straight away, you'll bag three points.
18:35If you're struggling, I'll reveal a letter in the cypher.
18:38Let's do that.
18:40OK, so we know the squid or the octopus is an O.
18:43We're looking for a song title.
18:45The points on offer dropped to two.
18:46If you still can't get it, I then reveal a second letter for one point.
18:51I think, Sally, you got this about five minutes ago.
18:53Yeah. You love this song.
18:54You're so vain.
18:55Yeah. There we go.
18:57Carol and Kate, if you're ready to play.
18:58It may not all be about Carly Simon songs, this.
19:01Here is your first cypher. OK.
19:03So the category is... Oh, gosh.
19:06..art.
19:08Broad.
19:10Can we have a letter, please?
19:11You want one? OK.
19:14All right, let's reveal a letter.
19:17P.
19:17There are now two points on offer if you get it.
19:21Painting book.
19:21First letter, P, art-related.
19:24Paintwork book.
19:25Every other letter looks to be different.
19:27Yeah, might as well ask for another letter.
19:29Another letter, please.
19:30Another letter, they say. OK.
19:33One point if you get it.
19:34Let's see where that B goes.
19:35Because all the letters are different.
19:38So, paint, brr, paint...
19:40Paintbrush. Paintbrush.
19:41Paintbrush. Paintbrush.
19:43Paintbrush.
19:43Paintbrush. Let's see.
19:44Let's see if you're right.
19:46Yeah.
19:47That's not easy.
19:49That is not easy.
19:51I would never have got that.
19:52OK, so, first one for Sally and Chris, our cypher.
19:55Let's have a look.
19:57Or a TV presenter.
19:59Ooh.
19:59Ooh.
20:00There's two letters there.
20:02So, they've got a double vowel.
20:05Is it Brooks something?
20:08Because the last letter appears again as well.
20:12And then the first letter appears.
20:13Yeah.
20:14So, that's...
20:16TV presenter.
20:17I think we need a letter, don't we?
20:19All right.
20:20You want to have a letter?
20:21Here's the letter.
20:23Now, it's worth two points.
20:27Antony...
20:27Antony...
20:28A...
20:30A...
20:33Alice, no.
20:35Erm, another letter, please.
20:39OK, so, you've got a double M there.
20:42Well done.
20:43Could that be Andrew?
20:44Well done.
20:45No.
20:45What's the M, though?
20:48Hammond, what's he called?
20:50Oh, Alison Hammond.
20:51Alison Hammond.
20:52Alison Hammond is your answer for one point.
20:55Is it right?
20:58Yes, it is.
21:01Dear old Alison Hammond.
21:02Brilliant Olly.
21:03We love Alice.
21:05Yeah.
21:05Love her.
21:06OK, so, these next ones might be tougher.
21:09Pause for laughter.
21:11Now, Kate, here we go with your cipher.
21:15Ooh, one long word.
21:18And the category, Michael Keaton film.
21:22I know, I know.
21:29Go on.
21:30Beetlejuice.
21:33Beetlejuice, you say?
21:34Oh, wow.
21:36Beetlejuice.
21:36Let's have a look.
21:39Welcome.
21:41You are marvellous, marvellous.
21:44Yeah.
21:45Over to Sally and Chris for the next cipher.
21:48Eight letters.
21:49Pasta.
21:50Pasta.
21:51So, it's got something.
21:53It's got a double, hasn't it?
21:54It's got a few silly tagliatelle.
21:57A few...
21:58No.
21:59So, let's go through the pastas.
22:01Um, carbonara, spaghetti.
22:04Oh.
22:05Spaghetti, hang on.
22:06S-P-A-G.
22:08No, it can't be.
22:08Yeah.
22:09Isn't the little shells called concelli or something?
22:13Con...
22:14Chell...
22:15Oh.
22:16I don't know.
22:16C-O-N...
22:18Shall we have a letter?
22:18C-O-N-C...
22:19Yeah, let's get a letter.
22:20All right.
22:20Takes it down to two points.
22:21If you get it, let's give you a letter.
22:24Ooh, I say.
22:26Pasta.
22:26The double L.
22:29Erm...
22:29So, it could be a type of pasta or a pasta dish.
22:31Pasta dish.
22:32Do you think it's pasta dish?
22:33Yeah, I think so.
22:34Do you?
22:35OK.
22:35I don't know.
22:36Do you need another letter?
22:37Yes, please.
22:38We'll have one more letter.
22:39OK, one more letter.
22:41Oh, OK.
22:42Oh!
22:43Er...
22:44I don't even know pasta like that.
22:46Er...
22:46Fally.
22:47Well, it's got to be an I at the end, hasn't it?
22:50But...
22:50I don't know.
22:51Sorry, I don't know.
22:52Do you want to need an answer?
22:53I don't know.
22:54No, we'll melt it.
22:55Don't know, sorry.
22:56Oh, out of time.
22:58Chance to steal.
22:59Farfalle.
23:00Farfalle.
23:27Farfalle.
23:28Farfalle Palace.
23:29No.
23:30OK, so let's run through the class.
23:33Something House.
23:34What's that one he lives in?
23:36He lives in here.
23:37Oh, inside the palace.
23:39Castle House.
23:41It's something House, isn't it?
23:43It's something House.
23:44Would you like a letter?
23:46Go on, then.
23:46Yeah.
23:47All right.
23:48Here we go.
23:49Now it goes down to two points.
23:51So it is House.
23:51There's an O.
23:52It is House.
23:53So is House.
23:54No, it's not Winter House, is it?
23:56It's...
23:57What's that one where the Queen Mother used to live?
23:59Yeah, yeah.
23:59That's near Buckingham Palace.
24:00The Lodge.
24:01No, no.
24:02Clarence House.
24:03Could be Royal Lodge.
24:03It's Clarence House.
24:04Could be Royal Lodge.
24:05Would you like one more?
24:06Yeah, give us another one.
24:07OK, let's have one more.
24:10Oh!
24:12OK.
24:12It's not House.
24:13It's not House.
24:14It's Hampton.
24:15Yeah, Hampton Court.
24:17Hampton Court would fit, you know.
24:19Is it Hampton Court?
24:21Yes.
24:25I spent the night there in Anne Boleyn's bedroom.
24:28Was she there?
24:29Was there a ghost?
24:30No, there was a flip chart on a conference table.
24:32OK.
24:33All right, the final cipher to solve is for Sally and Chris.
24:36Here it comes.
24:37Here we go.
24:38Come on.
24:38We've got this.
24:39Oh, no, we haven't.
24:40Nine-letter words.
24:43It's Asian country.
24:45OK.
24:45So those two letters are the same.
24:47Those two letters are the same.
24:48Which two?
24:48Oh, yeah, yeah.
24:49So, oh, yeah.
24:49So, forget...
24:50So, it's an Asian country.
24:52So, yeah, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Kazakhstan,
25:02Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan...
25:03OK, let's go for a letter, please.
25:05All right, let's have a letter.
25:06It goes down to two points if you get it right.
25:08So, the third letter is a D.
25:10D?
25:13Ooh.
25:14D, D, D, D, something D.
25:20Indonesia.
25:21Is it Indonesia?
25:22Indonesia.
25:23Is it Indonesia?
25:25Oh, my God.
25:26Yes.
25:27Well done.
25:28OK.
25:29I at the start and I as the penultimate letter.
25:32Indonesia.
25:33Well done, guys.
25:34The comeback is starting.
25:35I can feel it at the end of that round.
25:38Sally and Chris have got ten.
25:40Carol and Kate are not that far ahead with 19.
25:45Time for a progress report.
25:46As of right now, we've reached the end of this part,
25:48a part which, personally, I'm going to chalk up to experience
25:51and try to move on from.
25:52If you care to join me, I'll be back here after the break.
25:54So, we'll see you in a couple of minutes.
25:59If you want to keep puzzling, see if you can pick which letter to move
26:02one space up or down in the alphabet to solve this up or down puzzle.
26:06Best of luck.
26:13Have you figured out which letter to move to solve this up or down puzzle?
26:17If you did, well done.
26:23Welcome back to Celebrity Puzzling.
26:24Carol Vorderman and Sally Lindsay, a.k.a. our resident team captains,
26:28are going toe to beautifully manicured toe.
26:32OK, Sally and Carol, the fate of this next round is out of your hands
26:36because it's a head-to-head played on the buzzer between our guest celebs
26:41and the game they're going to be playing is up or down.
26:43So, will Reverend Botley come out on top or will it be Bisson Impossible?
26:49Yay!
26:50He's good, isn't he?
26:52Very good.
26:53Here we go with up or down.
26:57So, this is how it works.
26:58You will see a clue plus a series of letters on the screen.
27:01Each letter has been moved either up or down by one step in the alphabet.
27:05So, if it's B on the screen, it could be A or C.
27:08Yeah, you're right, Chris, to sigh because it does your head in this one.
27:12You've got to unscramble the code to spell the correct answer.
27:14Here we have a category.
27:15Who wants to go?
27:17Pink.
27:17Pink, let's see if...
27:18So, Q, P, Q.
27:19OK, P would work.
27:21H, I, M, N, K, L.
27:24Let's see if you're right.
27:24Yes.
27:25How's that, Chris?
27:26I'm worried now.
27:28Five puzzles to solve, guest against guest.
27:30Here's your first one.
27:32Ready for your buzzers.
27:35Animal.
27:43Kate?
27:44Goat.
27:46F, G, O, P, because it can go forwards or backwards.
27:51Yeah, I know.
27:52It's not always the next letter.
27:53I should have written down the alphabet on my hand.
27:56OK, fingers on buzzers.
27:57Here's your next one.
28:00Food.
28:04Any ideas?
28:06Got anything?
28:08Er, um.
28:11I can't think of the name of it.
28:15Er, I can picture it and I can't remember the name of it.
28:18Well, take a look at the letters.
28:19One letter up or down in the other.
28:21Oh, yes.
28:22Go on, Kate.
28:24Kebab?
28:26Kebab is right.
28:31Is that where you were heading, Chris?
28:32No, I was thinking of...
28:34I was going iced, iced, iced.
28:36It was kale I was thinking of, but it's not even enough letters.
28:39Get ready, here's the next one.
28:43Imbilflux, and it's a sport.
28:53Kate?
28:54Hockey.
28:55Is it H-O-C-K-E-Y?
28:57Yes.
28:57It could be.
28:59Yes, you got it right.
29:00She is a meme player.
29:01We know this woman quizzes.
29:03She loves a puzzle.
29:04So, action stations.
29:05Time for another.
29:07Four letters.
29:09And the category is country.
29:12Er...
29:19..Kate?
29:20Peru.
29:21Yeah.
29:22P-E-R-U.
29:23That would work.
29:24Let's see.
29:25Very good.
29:26Yes.
29:27So fast.
29:29She's so good.
29:31Very good.
29:32So, country, Peru.
29:33Here's your last one.
29:35Let's have a five-letter word this time.
29:37And it's bone.
29:39That is the clue.
29:41Oh, Kate.
29:43Femur.
29:44You were both very quick there.
29:47F-E-M-U-R.
29:48F-E-M-U-R.
29:50Is it...?
29:51It is.
29:52Yes, it's femur.
29:53Well done, Kate.
29:55Well done.
29:55Chris, I heard you were literally a quarter of a second after that.
29:59I was fuming because it was the only one that I knew straight away
30:01and she was just quicker on the buzzer.
30:02Oh.
30:03And there must be a lot of bones to go straight to femur like that.
30:05Kate, it's impressive.
30:06My daughter broke her femur when she was a little girl, so...
30:09That's it.
30:09That's it.
30:10Yeah, trampoline.
30:11Kate scored ten.
30:13No mean feats.
30:14Yeah.
30:15Let's look at the totals for each team.
30:17Brace yourselves, Sally and Chris.
30:18You are on ten.
30:19You've gone into double figures.
30:21Carol and Kate are on 29.
30:24It's OK.
30:25It's OK.
30:27Good puzzler.
30:28Kate, we've discovered this.
30:29Kate is a very good puzzler.
30:31So, I hope you managed to get a few of those at home,
30:33if you did well-played.
30:34It is time for our next puzzle.
30:35In this one, everything has gone a bit topsy-turvy.
30:37This is form and orderly cue.
30:42Let us see how this works.
30:43A question will appear, but somehow our supercomputer
30:46has reordered each word alphabetically,
30:48rather than how they should be written.
30:50So, they're in the wrong order.
30:51So, here we go.
30:52What is echt akilptikilptikilptovoa?
30:56Is the question.
30:58And I don't know whether you want to have a go at that.
30:59What is the...
31:00The...
31:01What's that second word?
31:03Name for a...
31:05...group of...
31:06Name for...
31:07Owls.
31:07A group of owls.
31:09What's the...
31:10What's the...
31:11Parliament.
31:12Is it now?
31:13Let's see whether it's Parliament.
31:14That would be tricky.
31:16Unscrabble it here and you can see what is the typical collective name
31:19for a group of owls.
31:20A Parliament of Owls.
31:22Hopefully, you were all wise enough to get that.
31:25So, the question is, can you form an orderly cue?
31:27Time to find out.
31:28Fingers on buzzers.
31:29Everyone here.
31:30And let's start.
31:33There's your question.
31:40Chris.
31:41Louvre.
31:42The Louvre.
31:44Yeah, very good.
31:45The museum.
31:45Let's see if you're right.
31:47Yes.
31:49Well done, because that's your first sight of one of these.
31:51They're not easy.
31:52So, if we unscramble it, you can see you've got Mona Lisa in there.
31:55Which museum is she in?
31:56The Louvre.
31:57Get ready on the buzzers.
31:58Here we go with our second.
32:02There it is.
32:06Carol.
32:06Kenya.
32:07Let's see if you're right with Kenya.
32:10Yeah.
32:11Oh, I see.
32:12Oh, that is so hard.
32:14Because it's...
32:15Let's see.
32:16The proper noun at the start is the clue.
32:18It's Nairobi is the capital of which country.
32:20Yeah.
32:20OK, Kenya is the answer.
32:21Well done, Carol.
32:21Here's the next.
32:28Kate.
32:29Apple.
32:31Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes.
32:32Go on, let's see.
32:33Is apple right?
32:34Ah, yes.
32:35Yes, well done.
32:37And I think we're looking at cider, aren't we?
32:38Let's have a look at the question.
32:40Cider is made from which fruit?
32:41Very good.
32:42The questions might get a little more difficult as we go along.
32:45Fingers back on buzzers.
32:46Here we go.
32:46Oh, I know that...
32:50I know what it says, but I don't know the answer.
32:52Which...
32:53I don't know what it says.
32:55Er...
32:55Chris.
32:58Kate.
32:59Captain America.
33:00Right, let's see if you're right there.
33:03No, I know what the question is, but I don't know the answer.
33:05You can steal it if you can.
33:07Which marble?
33:07Sal and Chris.
33:09Should we just try?
33:11Should we just guess?
33:11I would say, um...
33:14Thor.
33:16Thor is your answer.
33:18Well done.
33:20Well done, Sally.
33:21I'm struggling, I'm struggling.
33:23Chris Hemsworth plays which Marvel character he plays?
33:27Thor.
33:28Good guess, OK.
33:29That was so good.
33:30OK, now another one and we're enjoying this round.
33:33Very good.
33:34Mmm.
33:41Sally.
33:41I think it's Pluto.
33:44So, let's see if it's Pluto.
33:47Oh, dear.
33:48So, Pluto we've had, Pluto is wrong.
33:50What about you?
33:51Can you steal it?
33:51I'd say Uranus.
33:53I would say Neptune, so what do you want to go with?
33:56Got to go for one.
33:57No time.
33:57No, no, no, no, no.
33:59Captain, my captain.
34:00You'll be out of time in a second.
34:00I think it's Neptune.
34:02Neptune.
34:04Oh!
34:05Oh, dear, is it going to cause a little rift over here?
34:07It's Jupiter, is it?
34:08No.
34:09OK, look at the answer.
34:10Is it seven, six, it is Jupiter.
34:11It's Uranus.
34:12Oh!
34:13Oh!
34:13I'm so sorry, Carol Borderman.
34:16But, yeah, but I...
34:16Never overall, what is the seventh planet from the sun,
34:19was the question.
34:20So, final form and orderly cue puzzle.
34:22Here we go.
34:23We're loving this round.
34:28Kate?
34:29Ciccone.
34:31Oh, is it?
34:33Ciccone, she says.
34:36Yes.
34:36Very good.
34:37A lot of women.
34:38Very good.
34:38So, the question was, what is Madonna's surname?
34:42Very good.
34:42Ciccone.
34:43I can't just say the lack I've redeemed myself.
34:44At the end of that round, Sally and Chris have got 13.
34:48Carol and Kate are a touch ahead with 35.
34:51Oh!
34:53That's a good one, isn't it?
34:54Hopefully you managed to reorder those questions at home.
34:57Well done if you had any success there.
34:58So, it's time to go back to our letterbox
35:00for the penultimate round of the show.
35:02Both teams will get their own puzzle,
35:04but the fastest team to solve theirs will receive two bonus points.
35:07This is clearly a mixed-ability group, so it's all to play for him.
35:10Fernundrum!
35:14Let's see how it works.
35:15So, you're going to see three anagrams,
35:17each a letter longer than the one before.
35:19You must rearrange the tiles to solve the five-letter anagram
35:22before moving on to the six-letter one and so on.
35:25So, here, what do you think?
35:28Down the bottom?
35:29Bumpy.
35:29Bumpy, says Carol, yes.
35:31Any of our guests know the middle one?
35:33Corner.
35:34OK, any guests know the top one?
35:36Laundry.
35:37Very good.
35:38Laundry is a weird old word.
35:41As ever, you'll be against the clock here,
35:43so as soon as you've solved the third anagram.
35:45Hit the button to stop the clock.
35:46You'll score two points per solved word.
35:48However, if you complete all three anagrams faster than your opponents,
35:51you will receive two bonus points.
35:53Carol and Kate, you're leading,
35:55so you will head over to the letterbox first to face your Fernundrum.
36:02As soon as you solve the third Fernundrum,
36:04hit the button to stop the clock.
36:05Your time starts now.
36:07Bulgy.
36:12Bulgy.
36:13Yeah.
36:14Yes, got it.
36:15Bulgy.
36:17Full.
36:18Something full.
36:21Can't be full now.
36:22Must be...
36:26Um...
36:28Um...
36:29Flag?
36:31Um...
36:34Um...
36:35Not a word.
36:35No.
36:37Um...
36:38Flag?
36:39Flag?
36:40Afflan?
36:40Afflan?
36:42Afflan?
36:42The clock is ticking.
36:43Yeah, we know.
36:50Oh, brilliant.
36:52Oh, you did it.
36:53City, city, city.
36:56Oh, we're out of time.
36:57Actually, you did well with fungal, because I was looking...
37:00I thought...
37:01I couldn't see that.
37:02Well, I had it down.
37:03I couldn't even see it when you put it down.
37:04I thought, it's fungal.
37:05Is that a word now?
37:06She's a fungal?
37:09Certainly am, Jeremy.
37:11Anything here that you've got at the top?
37:13Style or something?
37:14There, let's see.
37:14Cyclist.
37:15Oh, no, no!
37:16I'm so sorry, Jeremy.
37:18We didn't get that for you.
37:19When they let me choose the words, this is what happens.
37:21There we are.
37:22So long, yeah.
37:23Two fungals have scored four in that.
37:26Well done, Carol and Kate.
37:27That's fine.
37:27It didn't compete all three, so you missed out on the bonus points.
37:30And before our next dynamic duo face their Fernandrum,
37:32it's time to take a short break.
37:34After that, we'll find out whether Carol and Kate, Sally and Chris,
37:37or some other yet-to-be-introduced surprise team
37:39win tonight's show and the Puzzling Cube.
37:43We've got to keep everyone on their toes here.
37:44So join us in a few minutes for more celebrity puzzling.
37:50Why don't you try unscrambling the middle three letters
37:53to solve this Fernandrum?
37:55Get puzzling.
38:04Have you figured out this, Fernandrum?
38:08Well done if you got it right.
38:14Welcome back to Celebrity Puzzling.
38:15It's the final part of tonight's show and we're minutes away
38:18from discovering which team will be our victors,
38:19despite none of them being called victor.
38:23OK.
38:24There's still time, team.
38:25To dig something up.
38:27Yes!
38:28Eh?
38:28They could have a total batting collapse, these two.
38:31We've seen it before.
38:32Sally and Chris, it's now your turn to be let loose on our Fernandrum.
38:34You have, as they did, as Carol and Kate did,
38:37three anagrams to solve.
38:38You've got to solve them in order, please.
38:41Yes.
38:41Carol and Kate failed to complete all three anagrams,
38:44which means if you now do all three,
38:46you're going to win this round.
38:48You get the two bonus points, which are very valuable to you.
38:50So, remember, once you solve all three anagrams, hit that button.
38:53Good luck.
38:54Your time starts now.
38:56OK, so that is...
38:58Gravy.
38:58Gravy, well done.
38:59Brilliant, well done.
39:00Good start.
39:01OK.
39:02OK.
39:03Asaj, he's got a map to move, isn't it?
39:08Er...
39:09Fros...
39:10No?
39:10Fr-O...
39:11Oh, no.
39:13Shay...
39:13Er...
39:15Something...
39:16What do you think it starts with?
39:18I don't know.
39:21Strasra...
39:22Do you think the D could be...
39:23We've got the D at the wrong end.
39:25That is really throwing me.
39:26That's the J is throwing me as well.
39:29Er...
39:30J-O-R...
39:31There's only one vowel, so it can only be certain combinations.
39:34Yeah, yeah.
39:35J-O-R...
39:36J-O-S-F-R...
39:39What is it?
39:40It's a snickering, George.
39:41Five seconds.
39:44George...
39:45Oh, listen, if it's any consolation, I'm staring and staring and I can't see it.
39:49I just wonder if you can see it.
39:50No.
39:52It's...
39:53Oh...
39:53This is brutal.
39:54How many words have...
39:56Fjord.
39:57One...
39:57Yeah.
40:14Fjord.
40:15I'll show you this one.
40:16I've lost the nibble to live.
40:17Here we go.
40:17I was going to start with the edge, actually.
40:19Let's go, yeah.
40:20Happier.
40:21Happier, yeah.
40:23Happier, yeah.
40:24There we go.
40:24Happier.
40:24Yeah, we'd have got that.
40:25There we go.
40:26Happier, Fjords, gravy.
40:28OK, great effort.
40:29Please head back to your seats.
40:34So, Sally and Chris, you managed to add two points to your score.
40:38That'll do it.
40:39Going into the final, the overall scores are...
40:42Let's just do this.
40:42We'll get through the pain barrier here.
40:44Sally and Chris, 15.
40:46Carol and Kate, very smart duo.
40:4939.
40:51So, it all comes down to this.
40:52It's time for our final round.
40:53It is Answer Bank.
40:57So, all right, this is for all four of you to play.
41:00In a moment, I'll show you a grid of 12 words.
41:03I'll then ask questions against the clock.
41:05Buzz in and give me the correct answer.
41:07If an answer has more than one word,
41:08you've got to give all the corresponding words
41:10in the correct order.
41:12You'll score a point per word,
41:13so it could add up to winning or losing the whole show.
41:15Six, seven.
41:16Six, seven, six, seven.
41:18Here they come, the words on the final round.
41:21Answer Bank.
41:24Wide, down, metal, sesame, forever, shut, French, open, eyes, snake, fields.
41:45So, you ready, everyone?
41:47Yeah.
41:47Tension.
41:48Here we go.
41:49Let's play tonight's final.
41:50The time starts now.
41:52Dice roll.
41:56Kate.

43:02Yeah, being tush.
43:04Oh!
43:05Hit single from 1967.
43:08Chris.
43:09Strawberry fields forever.
43:11Brilliant, Chris.
43:12Very good.
43:14Tennis grand slam.
43:15Kate.
43:16French open.
43:17Correct.
43:19Eaton mess ingredient.
43:22Kate.
43:23Strawberry.
43:24Yes.
43:26Oh!
43:27We're out of time.
43:29I think we nailed it.
43:32Then we got it.
43:33Then we got it.
43:33Then we got it.
43:33Then we got it.
43:34We're going to see.
43:35It was certainly hard fought that round.
43:38As I can tell you, a lot of tension in the studio now,
43:40because the eyes are on this.
43:43The prize.
43:44Now, the prize.
43:45And who it will go to.
43:50And certainly there was a powerful performance from both teams in the final round.
43:53It is time to find out who has pulled clear, though.
43:56Let us take a look at the scores.
43:57Sally and Chris, you've 24 points.
44:00On another day, that would have won it.
44:03Carol and Kate, let's see.
44:07More than double 50.
44:11We don't get many 50s here.
44:13I'd like to thank my mother.
44:15I'd like to thank my agent.
44:18This is yours.
44:19Thank you, my friend.
44:20Thank you, Chris, for playing.
44:21Thanks for having me.
44:22Hope you enjoyed it.
44:22It's a lot of fun with an absolute stellar partner you've got there.
44:26So that's, I think, our loose ends tied up for another episode.
44:29My thanks to Carol, Sally, Kate, Chris, and myself, in that order.
44:34Join us for more celebrity puzzling next time.
44:36Good night and puzzle on.

44:39Thanks, Angela, Michelle.
