FunTranscript
00:00Hello, I'm Jeremy Vine, and this is the show where two teams of celebrities attempt to impress each and every
00:06one of us with their puzzling prowess, and I for one applaud their efforts.
00:10This is Celebrity Puzzling!
00:28Hello, welcome to Celebrity Puzzling. Man as Dictator, I must introduce our team captains first.
00:34So, first up, so clever, she's like a walking, talking encyclopedia. It's the brilliant Carol Vorderman! Herself!
00:42About to show off her puzzling powers once again, part actor, part human internet search engine, Sally Lindsay!
00:50And what does every captain need? Well, a co-pilot, of course, and for this episode of Celebrity Puzzling, we've
00:56got a couple of crackers for you.
00:57Put your seat backs and tray tables in their full upright position, fasten your seat belts, we could be in
01:03for a bumpy ride.
01:04With Carol tonight, a news broadcaster who claims she still likes dancing and clubbing, and, oh, wow, it's making me
01:11tired just thinking about it.
01:12It's Charlene White!
01:16And with Sally, it's a comedian who's appeared in Panto for over 30 consecutive years.
01:21Oh, no, he hasn't.
01:23It's Joe Pasquale!
01:26Welcome, everyone. Every time I see you, Charlene, I want to talk royals, because you do a royals thing.
01:31Yes, yes, I do. We do a Talking Royals podcast and show on ICV at Sunday lunchtime.
01:36So I'm basically like an encyclopedia of royal knowledge.
01:39Oh, you know.
01:40And if you look at, say you've got the whole royal family on the balcony, who's the puzzler in there?
01:45That's what I want to know.
01:46Oh, who's the puzzler?
01:47Someone who can do the puzzles.
01:49I reckon King Charles. I reckon he's a big puzzler.
01:52Yeah.
01:53Do you think so?
01:53Yeah, yeah. I can imagine him sort of set as Sandringham with, like, a little notebook and stuff and working
02:00out puzzles and what have you.
02:01So, Joe, you do the panties, you do the acting, you do, you know, presenting. You were a swimming pool
02:06attendant as well.
02:07I have to say, the pool was only three foot six deep, so I only had to wade. I wasn't
02:15a great swimmer.
02:15So as long as I was taller than three foot six, you got the gig. It was fine. You didn't
02:20really have to swim.
02:21So every episode, our teams take on a selection of six random puzzles from our exhaustive roster.
02:26Therefore, no two contests are ever the same.
02:29Players, your aim here is, you'll be surprised at this, to score as many points as possible.
02:34Points are crucial, as ideally, you'll want a big lead going into our final round.
02:39Without a big lead, the final round answer bank can be very stressful, as Sally well knows.
02:44Oh, all right.
02:45Well, as Sally and Carol well know, just because I caught your eye, that's all.
02:51The winning celebrity will also take home this. I want you to watch this screen. You won't believe what's coming.
02:56What?
02:56It is the celebrity puzzling, puzzling cube.
03:01Carol, the mathematician, and I have got our heads together and we have worked out there are 43 quintillion different
03:08combinations on this one cube.
03:10That's 43 with 18 zeros.
03:12It's amazing.
03:14Charlie and I can see you can't have it yet.
03:15You'd better make sure we win that.
03:17Absolutely.
03:19Let's get puzzling.
03:20This first round will make you all feel Tom Hanks in the Da Vinci Code. At least that's what it
03:25does for me. It is cypher.
03:28Let's have a look at an example. I'm going to give you a category clue and then show you the
03:32puzzle you've got to solve, which is concealed by a code of symbols. Here we go. EastEnders.
03:37Can we have a letter?
03:38Let's see. Now, that's the thing. It's for three points. It's very hard from this position.
03:41I can see Charlene thinking, oh my God. But if I give you a letter, it goes down to two
03:46points. Let's see. So that is A. So it starts with A. Oh, if you'd say, well, we're still struggling,
03:51then it goes down to one point as I give you another letter and you know that's Q.
03:56And then you think, ah, Albert Square. And funny enough, I was thinking the black clouds would be an E,
04:01but they were an R.
04:03OK, Carol and Charlene, here we go with your first cypher. Category is action film, five letters.
04:10So the two exclamation marks are the same letter. Are you good on films?
04:15Er, sometimes.
04:17OK.
04:18Action film, we've got, it's probably Die Hard or anything like that. So it's two letters.
04:23It could be double E, double O, double T, double M.
04:26Speed.
04:27Speed. Very good.
04:29Is it speed?
04:31Well done.
04:33Nicely done.
04:34So the double letter really helped. So that's three points. Here's the first verse, Sally and Jo.
04:40So it's a seven letter word and it's a police song.
04:43Oh, I think I know what it is.
04:44Go on, go on, is it two letters?
04:45OK, because the two N's at the end.
04:47Yep.
04:48So let's say, er, I think it's Roxanne.
04:53Oh, I see.
04:54Well, it is one word, a one word police song.
04:57Yeah.
04:57OK, let's see.
04:58Roxanne.
05:00Yeah, we're done.
05:01Good call.
05:02OK, these next ones might be a little tougher to crack. Carol and Charlene, here's yours.
05:08Seven letters, Chinese zodiac.
05:11Ah, so the year of the.
05:15So, so the first letter and the last letter are the same. And then there's a double. There's the year
05:21of the horse, the snake, the monkey. What else could it be?
05:25Like, genuinely.
05:27That's likely to be a double E, do you think?
05:30Yeah.
05:30And an R, rooster.
05:33Oh, yes, that is one.
05:34Rooster.
05:36S-T-E-R.
05:37Yeah?
05:37Yeah.
05:37Should we go with that?
05:38Yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:38All right.
05:39Is it rooster?
05:41Yeah.
05:42Well done, the teamwork.
05:44Over to Sally and Jo for your next cipher.
05:48So, eight letters now. Hot drink.
05:50OK.
05:51We've got two, we've got three eight balls there.
05:54So, we've got, uh, hot drink.
05:58Cappuccino.
05:58Cappuccino.
05:58Is that right?
06:00What's that double cap?
06:02No, it can't be because that's in the game.
06:03No, no, it might be that.
06:05OK, let's think then.
06:06What's that, what's that double letter?
06:09Espresso, no, that's not right.
06:10I'm thinking hot drink.
06:11Chocolate.
06:12It could be espresso.
06:13Could it?
06:14No, it can't.
06:14Yeah, it could be an S.
06:16X, oh.
06:17Yeah.
06:17Oh, yeah.
06:18It's espresso.
06:18Espresso.
06:19Espresso.
06:20But you're saying espresso.
06:21Espresso.
06:23Espresso.
06:23Was there a spelling thing?
06:25Were you going, yeah.
06:26It was me, I can't, I'm terrible at spelling anyway.
06:29So, good job that Joe was there.
06:30No, actually, that's right.
06:31I called it espresso for years, so.
06:33And I think that's, that's where I was thinking.
06:36That's the confusion.
06:37Yeah.
06:38OK, the level might get a bit harder again now for your final ones each.
06:41Carol and Charlene, it's a brilliant round so far.
06:43Keep it up.
06:45Two four-letter words, celebration.
06:50Yeah, so the two, what could that be?
06:53And then the two vowels are the same.
06:57What would a celebration be?
06:59A birthday party.
07:01Yeah.
07:02A birthday.
07:04A baby shower.
07:06Ooh.
07:08I'm trying to think.
07:09I can give you a letter.
07:11Yeah, give us a letter.
07:12It will take you down to two points.
07:14OK, let me give you a letter.
07:16That's an I.
07:18The infinity symbol is an I.
07:22I'm trying to get that percentage letter.
07:25Yeah.
07:26Celebration's up there.
07:29I can give you another letter.
07:32OK, Jeremy.
07:33Give us another letter.
07:34Here we go.
07:35I'm sorry.
07:36Let's take it down to one point if you get it right now.
07:38The other letter I can give you is the percentage sign is H.
07:43High.
07:43Oh, high five.
07:45Oh.
07:46Isn't it?
07:47Is it high five?
07:48Yeah.
07:50Yeah.
07:50Right.
07:50Yeah.
07:51That was difficult.
07:52So, chance for Joe and Sally to get a bit ahead here.
07:56Here's yours.
07:58Six letters, 2020's film.
08:02Blimey.
08:03Oh, that's difficult from scratch.
08:05It could be anything, couldn't it?
08:072020's film.
08:08I think it might be a name, because it's just, you know.
08:12What person's name?
08:12Well, I'm just thinking it could, because it's just one word.
08:15Yeah.
08:17We're going to have to have a letter, love.
08:18Yeah, I think we are.
08:19It's tough, isn't it?
08:19There's so many of them.
08:20OK, let's give you a letter.
08:22It goes down to two points now.
08:24And the carriage return symbol is the A.
08:31No, let's get another letter.
08:33All right, I'm hoping you'll get that little share symbol.
08:37Let's see.
08:38OK, that's a B, so that helps.
08:41Oh, Barbie.
08:42Barbie.
08:43Of course it is.
08:44Oh, yeah, high profile, but very hard from a standing star.
08:48Let's see if you're right.
08:49Barbie.
08:50Yes, well done.
08:52I want to see the scoreboards now.
08:54At the end of that round, Carol and Charlene have got seven points.
08:58Yes.
08:59But matching them pound for pound, Joe and Sally, on seven.
09:02Well done.
09:04So, very good round.
09:06Just the last bit, they needed the letters, but most of the time it's amazing.
09:10Did those of you playing at home manage to outscore our celebrities?
09:12Well done if you did.
09:13In a moment, it'll be time for our teams to approach the letterbox.
09:16For a chance to bag some crucial points.
09:19So, going first, Carol and Charlene, the game you'll be playing is thirdle.
09:25You'll see three words, each with the third letter missing.
09:28You need to fill in those missing letters using the tiles provided to spell a new word vertically.
09:32Here we go.
09:33Let's have a little look here.
09:34So, are we on aloof at the top there?
09:36Yes.
09:37Anything else here?
09:38Peace.
09:39Peace, okay.
09:40Pence, I would say.
09:42Pence.
09:42Pence, all right.
09:43And steer.
09:43Yeah, there we go.
09:45And then you've got one down the middle.
09:46Very good.
09:47Let's see.
09:47And then it goes green, if you've got it right.
09:49You'll score three points if you solve the puzzle.
09:51You've got a full alphabet to play with.
09:54So, Carol and Charlene head on over to the letterbox to play the brilliant thirdle.
10:01Carol and Charlene, hit the button when you've completed it.
10:04Here is your first thirdle.
10:05Your time starts now.
10:08Ooh.
10:08Ooh.
10:10So, that's award.
10:12Award.
10:13Yeah.
10:13A-N.
10:15And that's fend, F-E-N, maybe?
10:18Fend for the sound.
10:19What's that?
10:20Hypes.
10:21P.
10:23So, what's that?
10:25Feeds.
10:26Feeds.
10:28So, P.
10:30Well done.
10:31Well done.
10:32Brilliant.
10:33A lovely shade of green there.
10:35Okay, and P is the middle word, the key word that went green.
10:38Your second puzzle will have four words with the third letter missing.
10:42You'll need to spell a new four-letter word vertically.
10:44It is worth four points, though.
10:45Okay?
10:46So, if you're ready, your time starts now.
10:48Okay, what have we got?
10:50Eagle.
10:51Eagle.
10:51I'll put that in.
10:52Clogs.
10:53Yeah.
10:56Solve.
10:57That should be ironic.
10:59Offer.
10:59Goal.
11:00Yes.
11:01Offer.
11:02Goal.
11:02Yeah.
11:03Goal.
11:04Well done.
11:05Eagle.
11:06Clogs.
11:07Solve.
11:08Offer.
11:08Yes.
11:09So, that's a whole beginning of a novel.
11:11Yes.
11:11It really is, yeah.
11:12Or a headline of a very strange story.
11:15Okay, another one for you.
11:16Final puzzle has five words, so you're going to need to spell a new five-letter word vertically,
11:20and it's worth a bump of five points.
11:22Let's go.
11:23Your time starts now.
11:25Five words.
11:27Hippo.
11:27Hippo.
11:28Yes, you've got the P.
11:30Shrug.
11:31R.
11:33Graff.
11:34Oh, one of my favourites.
11:35And local.
11:37So, what will that be?
11:39Oh.
11:40Local.
11:41Local.
11:41Oh.
11:42No, that's not that.
11:44Loyal.
11:45I don't know.
11:46Loyal.
11:47Spray.
11:49There we go.
11:49S.
11:50Spray.
11:51Lovely.
11:52You've made light work of S3.
11:55Really, really good.
11:56Really fast and efficient, if I may say so.
11:59You're welcome.
12:00And calm, I think.
12:01You're working well together and calm at this stage, yeah.
12:04Good effort, Carol and Charlene.
12:05Your trip to the letterbox has scored you 12.
12:08Sally and Joe, can you score 12 here?
12:11That was good.
12:12Yeah, possibly.
12:12Possibly.
12:13All right, good.
12:13Well done.
12:14No sooner have you got your feet under the table than I'm pulling the rug from under you.
12:17What I'm trying to say is that it's already time for a short ad break,
12:21so we'll see you after that for more puzzling.
12:27If you want to keep puzzling, see if you can complete the vertical word to solve this thirdle.
12:33Best of luck.
12:46Puzzlers, did you manage to complete the thirdle?
12:50If you did, great puzzling.
12:55Welcome back to Celebrity Puzzling.
12:57You're my kind of people.
12:58It's now Sally and Joe's turn at the letterbox to play thirdle.
13:02Now, remember, you're going to see three words each with the third letter missing.
13:04You've got to fill in the missing letters to spell a new word vertically.
13:08You score three if you solve this first puzzle, and that lot over there are scoring very high marks.
13:13Yep.
13:13So keep up with them.
13:14Sally and Joe, here's your first one.
13:16Your time starts now.
13:1745 seconds.
13:18Okay, go.
13:19Jewel, W, Jewel.
13:21Okay, hang on a minute.
13:22Okay.
13:22So what's this one?
13:23Sleily?
13:24Slow, slow, slow.
13:24What is it?
13:25Slow, slow, slow.
13:26Sleily, or is it?
13:26It's got to be a vowel.
13:27Okay, what's that?
13:29Use.
13:29What's that?
13:32Usha?
13:32Usha?
13:33Usha?
13:33Usha is good.
13:33Okay, Y.
13:35Oh, there's no, no, no, no, no.
13:36Sleily?
13:36Sleily, good.
13:37Oh, well done.
13:40Y is the middle word.
13:41Well done.
13:42Your second puzzle will have four words with the third letter missing.
13:44You've got to spell a new four-letter word vertically, but now it goes up to four points.
13:49Okay, your time starts now.
13:51Okay.
13:52That could be an S again, passe.
13:54Passé or past?
13:56No, no, it's passe.
13:57Passé, let's try it.
13:58Passé.
13:59What's that?
14:00Moved V.
14:01Moved V.
14:02So what's that?
14:04Goose could be an R.
14:05Goose, you know.
14:06No, it's V.
14:06No, I'm not getting this V.
14:07Okay, hold on.
14:08Let's go.
14:09What's this Luna?
14:10Okay, Luna put in there then.
14:11So Luna, N up there, Luna.
14:12Okay, so let's get rid of that.
14:14So what's that?
14:15Let's get rid of that.
14:16So, um.
14:17Moved, so no, it wouldn't be a V.
14:19So, are we saying that's goose?
14:21Yeah, it could be, uh.
14:23Goose.
14:25Moped.
14:25So is that something else?
14:27Oh, that's not a spun then.
14:28Okay.
14:28Is that something?
14:30Ten seconds.
14:31But, uh, it's moped.
14:33What is it?
14:34Um, past?
14:36Time running out.
14:37Oh, no, no, no.
14:38Oh!
14:39Now look, passe would work.
14:41Could it be pause?
14:43Oh!
14:44Give me a U.
14:45Give me a U.
14:46Upon, yes.
14:46Then we've got it.
14:47But well done.
14:48Not well done, because you've got it.
14:50But well done on a moped.
14:51Your final puzzle has five words to solve, and you're going to spell a new five-letter word.
14:55It's worth a bump of five points.
14:57Let's go.
14:57Your time starts now.
15:01Laser, maybe?
15:02Could be, uh.
15:03Layer?
15:03Could be an extra then.
15:04Okay, what's this?
15:05Green?
15:06Sean, uh.
15:08Okay, green.
15:09That could be salty, could be an extra there.
15:11It could be an elder.
15:12Salty.
15:12What's this then?
15:19This is not right.
15:21No, so it's not right there.
15:22Sean, shine.
15:23Shield.
15:24Shine.
15:26Shine.
15:28Shield is not an S.
15:29Shield for NF.
15:30Laser, is that a word?
15:32Shield, no, that's not right.
15:33Shield.
15:34Shield.
15:3510 seconds.
15:36Laser.
15:37No.
15:37No, that's not right.
15:39Shane, shine, sheen, green.
15:42Salty, that's not right.
15:43Oh!
15:45Okay, you see it.
15:46It's a wide, it's a wide yield.
15:47It's a wide, yeah, I guess.
15:50Wise do give us trouble.
15:53Go on, Joe, get the wide.
15:55Yield.
15:55Yield.
15:56Only two more seconds, sorry.
15:58Okay, let's see what's happened to the scoreboard now.
16:00Head back to your seats.
16:01It's very sad.
16:02It's not bad, it's, I would call it grave, but not yet in the emergency.
16:06Yeah, it's very sad, no, I say it's bad for him.
16:07Let's head back to our seats.
16:13How many points did you back up at home?
16:14Well done, Sally and Joe.
16:15Your visit to the letterbox scored you three.
16:18Yeah, it's not good.
16:19It may not be good enough because these two are doing so well.
16:22Let's have a look at the overall scores on the board.
16:24So, Carol and Charlene on 19.
16:28Yep.
16:29Sally and Joe lagging a bit on 10.
16:33Oh, that's not bad.
16:33No, you can catch, you've got the double feet.
16:35You just need a push.
16:37Really?
16:37I thought it'd be less than that.
16:38That's not bad.
16:39The next puzzle is one we can count on.
16:41It is time to play three, two, one.
16:45So, let's see how this works and see if you can master it.
16:48On the screen you'll see a grid of answers.
16:50Three of those answers will be connected.
16:51Two of the answers will also be connected.
16:54And the key tip here is that they have to be adjoining.
16:57That leaves an odd one out.
16:58So, wine, pips, core, beer, skin, rugby.
17:01Charlene, what do you think?
17:03Well, I...
17:03Apple?
17:04Yeah, wine, beer and pips.
17:07Wine, beer, pips, yeah?
17:08What do you think, Jackie?
17:09I think it's skin, pips, core, with apple.
17:12Oh, I see all parts of an apple.
17:14Yeah, yeah, well done.
17:15And wine and beer is both.
17:16Yeah.
17:17And rugby isn't.
17:18Yeah, well done.
17:19Let's see if that's right.
17:21There we go.
17:22So, it goes green if it's right.
17:23Let's go for it and see how you get on.
17:25So, Sally and Joe, you're going first.
17:26Here's your first three, two, one puzzle.
17:28Good luck.
17:30Pink water fridge.
17:31Rod, potato, leek.
17:33Oh, okay.
17:34Potato and leek.
17:36Water...
17:37Obviously, leek and potato you want to put together because that's C.
17:40Leek away, water away, water...
17:42Pink...
17:44Oh, gosh.
17:46Um...
17:47Divine in...
17:47Pink...
17:48Divine...
17:49Divine in rod.
17:51Water divine in rod.
17:52Can you find me the trio?
17:54I don't know any of this.
17:55So, I'm going to go for...
17:58What pink and water is it, for whatever reason, is the...
18:02Okay.
18:03And then...
18:04Potato and leek.
18:04Yeah.
18:05Okay, vegetables, yeah.
18:06Yeah, vegetables.
18:07And then the odd one out.
18:08Fridge.
18:09Fridge, okay.
18:09Are you right?
18:12Yes, I've played them well.
18:14I'll tell you why.
18:15So, hot rod, hot pink, hot water.
18:19And there was something...
18:20There was something in front, but I didn't find that word.
18:23So, words that go after hot, and then the second...
18:26The potato leek is obviously vegetables, and then fridge is all...
18:28Oh, right.
18:28The weird thing I have is, as soon as I see pink, I go pink Floyd,
18:31so I can't get off pink Floyd.
18:33So, I'm looking for rod Floyd, water Floyd, you know.
18:36Carol and Charlene, your turn.
18:38Here we go.
18:40Finger theft auto, stand, bo-peep, national, median.
18:45Okay, median, obviously, is a kind of average.
18:50Little bo-peep, little finger.
18:53Little finger, little bo-peep.
18:54Peep.
18:55Right, for the two.
18:56Yeah.
18:57Grand theft auto, grand national, grand stand.
19:01And median is the...
19:02Is the odd one out.
19:04So, stand theft auto, national, is the three.
19:08The trio, right.
19:10Little finger, little bo-peep is the two.
19:13Okay.
19:13And median is the odd one out.
19:16Well, you got straight there.
19:17You're playing well.
19:17Let's see if you're right.
19:19Yeah.
19:20Yeah, and right, and for the right reasons,
19:22so grand theft auto, grand stand, grand national,
19:25and then little finger, little bo-peep, you're right,
19:28and then median, the odd one out.
19:29Brilliant.
19:29Well done.
19:30Yeah.
19:30Well played.
19:31All right, the next one for Sal and Joe.
19:34Okay.
19:36The Smiths, knee, elbow, oasis, shoulder, carry.
19:41Okay, so the Smiths, oasis, and elbow are obviously bands.
19:44Yeah, but they're not together.
19:46Not together, so it won't be that.
19:47So, okay, I've got it.
19:48So the Smiths and oasis are Mancunian bands.
19:51Yep.
19:52Shoulder, knee, and elbow are joints.
19:54Elbow together, joints, and carry on its own.
19:55And carry is on its own.
19:57Yep.
19:57So your trio is knee, elbow, shoulder.
20:00Shoulder, knee, and elbow.
20:01Okay.
20:02And the pair?
20:03Smiths, oasis.
20:05Yep.
20:05Carry on its own.
20:07Okay, let's see if that's right.
20:09Yes.
20:10You got straight away on the Smiths.
20:12So the Smiths, one of the greatest bands of all time, oasis, are Mancunian bands.
20:17Knee, elbow, shoulder, the trio, carry the old one out.
20:19Yeah.
20:20Exactly right.
20:20And the little foxy thing there was the elbow are a band as well.
20:24Yes.
20:25Oh, yes, of course, yeah.
20:26Carol and Charlene, here's your next puzzle.
20:29Email, answering, cash, text, pinball, pigeon.
20:33So obviously email and text are forms of messaging.
20:36Yes.
20:37Communication.
20:40Text, message.
20:42Answering, answering machine.
20:44No.
20:44Oh, yes.
20:45Answering machine and pinball machine.
20:47Yeah.
20:48That could be the two, but then we haven't got a three.
20:51No.
20:51Text machine, email machine.
20:52Pigeon, hold.
20:52Yes, got it.
20:53Go on.
20:54Answering machine, pinball machine, cash machine, email and text, pigeon is on its own.
20:59Okay.
20:59I'll go with you.
21:00Yeah.
21:00Go on.
21:01Charlene, say it again.
21:02Go.
21:02Cash machine, answering machine, pinball machine.
21:05That's the trio.
21:06And then the two is email and text, and pigeon is on its own.
21:10Okay.
21:11Are you right?
21:13Yay.
21:14Good question.
21:15Give a minute.
21:16It's Charlene's first time.
21:17It's a very, very good question.
21:18You've really got the hang of it.
21:19Very old school answering machine.
21:21Pinball, answering, cash are the trio.
21:23Email and text are the pair, because they're messaging systems, and the odd one out is pigeon.
21:28Sally and Joe, here's the next one for you.
21:31So, emu, ostrich, helicopter, whale, drone, hummingbird.
21:35Oh, this is interesting.
21:37Yep.
21:38Okay.
21:38So, emu, ostrich, and hummingbird, obviously, are birds.
21:42Some flightless, though.
21:43Some flightless birds.
21:45Could be, emu and ostrich could be flightless, well.
21:48Helicopter, hummingbird, and drone.
21:51Oh, hang on.
21:52That might be helicopter, hummingbird, and drone are, they can hover.
21:56Yeah, that's right.
21:57Look, I'm doing it, I'm doing it.
21:58Yeah, you're doing it.
21:59That's very good.
22:00Just to do emu, both emu, both do it together.
22:03And they're flightless birds, a whale's on his own, because he's in the water.
22:05And a whale's on his own, bless him.
22:07So, you've got helicopter, hummingbird, drone, because they hover.
22:10We did our answer through the power of visual dance.
22:14Emu and ostrich, you say, are flightless birds.
22:17Flightless birds.
22:18And whale, you say, is the odd one.
22:20Odd one, yeah.
22:20So, yes, you're absolutely right.
22:23Yes.
22:27Helicopter, hummingbird, drone are the trio.
22:30Emu, ostrich are the pair.
22:32Three hover.
22:33Two have wings but can't fly.
22:35And whales are in all kinds of trouble if you drop them from a plane.
22:39Yep.
22:40Final puzzle is for Carol and Charlene.
22:43Here we go.
22:45Steam Coward, Gielgud, electronic grand upright.
22:49So, Noel Coward and John Gielgud were obviously theatrical.
22:58Steam engine.
22:59Steam iron, electric iron, electronic, no, it doesn't work.
23:03No.
23:03Start with grand, what's that giving us?
23:07Grand central, grand piano, electronic, upright piano.
23:13Yes.
23:14Ah, yes.
23:16Yes.
23:17Piano, piano, piano.
23:18I've never seen a steam piano, have you?
23:20No.
23:20No.
23:21Give us your three.
23:22We're going with the word piano after each of these.
23:27Electronic, grand and upright.
23:29And then the twosome, hopefully, are Noel Coward and John Gielgud.
23:34That's theatricals.
23:35And steam is the odd one out.
23:37Okay.
23:39Let's see if you're right.
23:41Yay!
23:43So, the three are actually our types of piano.
23:46Then Coward and Gielgud, a little bit more specific, actually, theatres named after them.
23:50Ah, okay.
23:51The Noel Coward Theatre and the Gielgud Theatre.
23:54Both in London.
23:55There may be a steam theatre somewhere, but we haven't heard of it.
23:57So steam is the odd one out.
23:58And well done.
23:59Well done.
24:00Immaculate rounds for both teams.
24:01Did you get them at home?
24:02At the end of that round, Sally and Joe have 16.
24:07Carol and Charlene have got 25.
24:09Oh.
24:12Sally's been here, done it, got the T-shirt.
24:14She knows she and Joe can come back.
24:16And they may even be deliberately hanging back at this point.
24:19Oh, yeah.
24:20Yeah, that's what we're doing.
24:21Okay.
24:22We're going to take a breather while I apply some essential oils.
24:25Join us after the break once we've all had a few moments to decompress.
24:30It's here for you if you need it.
24:31We'll see you back here soon.
24:36If you want to keep puzzling, see if you can pick which letter to move one space up or down
24:40in the alphabet to solve this up or down puzzle.
24:43Best of luck.
24:54Have you figured out which letter to move to solve this up or down puzzle?
24:59If you did, well done.
25:04Welcome back to Celebrity Puzzling.
25:05Tonight, two more celebrities have backed themselves to best our array of extremely tricky trivia.
25:10In this next bit, we single out Joe and Charlene.

25:29Now, each letter you see has been moved either up or down by one step.
25:32So the clue is timepiece.
25:34So if there's a B there, it could be an A or a C.
25:36If there's an N there, it could be an L or an N.
25:40That'd be clock, yeah.
25:41Timepiece.

37:01or Sally and Joe, are going to be in the leading position going into the final.
37:05And what's so interesting is these two have played a blinder,
37:07and now they've had a setback, and you can now catch up.
37:10So, Sally and Joe, your turn to face Letterbox Ladder.
37:12Three new connecting words to solve.
37:15Carol and Charlene failed to complete the ladder,
37:18which means that if you complete all three,
37:19you're guaranteed the two bonus points.
37:21Remember, once you solve all three, hit the button.
37:24Good luck.
37:25Your time starts now.
37:26Now.
37:27OK.
37:28Dance, video, work.
37:30Dance, move?
37:32No.
37:33Dance, video.
37:34So, dance...
37:36It's not video.
37:37Right, OK.
37:40Dance, dance, come on.
37:42Dance, video, what's that, video player, video star, video...
37:50Dance, dance, dance.
37:51Moves, moves.
37:52Is it a zero of E?
37:53No, no, no, there's no love.
37:55Dance, moves, dance, what's this one, video, access, screen, work out.
38:00Screen, screen, screen, screen, video screen.
38:02Screen, right, OK.
38:03Have you got an N?
38:05Have you got an N?
38:06Have you got an N?
38:07No, no, no, in.
38:08Oh, it's not screen either.
38:09Dance, time is ticking down.
38:12Dance, S is, dance, time, dance, shoot.
38:16Dance, video, uh...
38:20Dance, uh...
38:21Shoot, video, shoot.
38:23No, no, no, that's not going to work.
38:25Dance...
38:27Me, is it double E?
38:28Double E, something?
38:30Dance, trade, dance, trade.
38:32No, no, no, no, don't.
38:33Five seconds.
38:34No, no, they're getting five seconds.
38:36Oh, no.
38:37Horrible.
38:38So hard.
38:39I just was looking at dance music I wanted.
38:42Let's put music in.
38:43Oh, yeah, fair enough.
38:43Make ourselves feel better.
38:45I think dance music's not crazily obscure, is it?
38:48No, it's not.
38:49It's just...
38:51Oh, music video.
38:52It will be, yeah, music video.
38:54Video camera, please.
38:56Video camera.
38:58Yep.
38:58Camera work.
39:01Camera work.
39:01Yeah, work.
39:02Camera work.
39:03Oh, camera work.
39:04He's been good on the camera work today.
39:07And...
39:08Work.
39:08Work ethic.
39:09Dance, music, music video, video camera, camera work, work ethic.
39:13I always try to clutch at straws here, and we're no worse off than we were before.
39:17That's the key thing here.
39:19Great effort.
39:19Please head back to your seats.
39:27We were on the shoulder, and that was the overtake, but it's not the end.
39:31It was the final bend in the race.
39:33We now come to the final itself.
39:35Sally and Joe didn't manage to add any points to their score in that round.
39:39So, going into the final, we've got the same gap here.
39:41Sally and Joe, 23.
39:44Yep.
39:44Carol and Charlene, 35.
39:48Those who've played the game before know that it all comes down to this.
39:52It can switch around.
39:53It is time for our final round.
39:55It's Answer Bank.
39:58OK, Sally and Joe, a bit of catching up to do, but this is for all four of you to
40:02play.
40:03In a moment, I'll show you a grid of 12 words.
40:05I'll then ask questions against the clock, buzz in, and give me the correct answer,
40:08which could be a little bit lateral, like a crossword clue.
40:11If an answer has more than one word, you must give all the corresponding words in the correct order.
40:17You will score a point per word, so it could add up to winning or losing the whole show on
40:22this.
40:22Let's reveal all the words on the Answer Bank now.

43:20Good morning.
43:22Charlie, well done on your sugar babes answer.
43:24Yeah.
43:24Because that was worth three points.
43:25That was a tough old question.
43:27You came through on that.
43:28So, we'll have a look at the scores.
43:30Okay, the results from the Luxembourg jury are in.
43:34Sally and Joe are on 33.

43:47That's the highest we've ever had.
43:49It was all the three.
43:51Absolutely amazing.
43:52Wow.
43:52I'm sorry, Joe.
43:53It's like, you know, you've been told to turn up with the Fiesta and someone's arrived in a Lamborghini.
43:59Yeah, that's exactly what happened.
44:00I am a Fiesta boy.
44:01Well, Sally will tell you, you played very, very well.
44:04And you got a good score and on other days it would have won.
44:07But you were up against some hot rods here.
44:09Yes, indeed.
