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.
00:31Man as Dictator 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?
00:52Well, a co-pilot, of course, and for this episode of Celebrity Puzzling, we've got a couple of crackers for
00:57you.
00:57Put your seat backs and tray tables in their full upright position.
01:01Fasten your seat belts, we could be in for a bumpy ride.
01:04With Carol tonight, a news broadcaster who claims she still likes dancing and clubbing,
01:10and, oh, wow, it's making me tired just thinking about it, it'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.
01:27Every time I see you, Charlene, I want to talk royals, because you do a royals thing.
01:30Yes, yes, I do.
01:32We do a talking royals podcast and show on ITV 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.
01:46Who's the one who can do the puzzles?
01:49I reckon King Charles.
01:51I reckon he's a big puzzler.
01:52Do you think so?
01:53Yeah, yeah.
01:54I can imagine him sort of set as Sandringham with, like, a little notebook and stuff and working out puzzles
02:00and what have you.
02:01So, Joe, you do the panties, you do the acting, you do, you know, presenting.
02:05You were a swimming pool attendant as well.
02:07I have to say, the pool was only three foot six deep, so I only had to wade.
02:14I wasn't a great swimmer.
02:15So as long as I was taller than three foot six, you got the gig.
02:19It was fine.
02:19You didn't really have to swim.
02:20So 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.
02:38Without 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.
02:48Just because I caught your eye, that's all.
02:51The winning celebrity will also take home this.
02:54I want you to watch this screen.
02:55You won't believe what's coming.
02:56What?
02:56That 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.
03:16You 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.
03:24At least that's what it does for me.
03:25It is cipher.
03:55Let's have a look at an example.
03:56Ah, Albert Square.
03:59And funny enough, I was thinking the black clouds would be an E, but they were an R.
04:03Okay, Carol and Charlene, here we go with your first cipher.
04:07Category is action film, five letters.
04:11So the two exclamation marks are the same letter.
04:14Are you good on films?
04:15Er, sometimes.
04:17Okay.
04:18Action film, we've got, we can't be Die Hard or anything like that.
04:22So 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.
04:36So that's three points.
04:37Here's the first verse, Sally and Jo.
04:40So it's a seven letter word, but it's a police song.
04:43Oh, I think I know what it is.
04:44Go on, go on, is it two letters?
04:45Okay, because the two ends at the end.
04:47Yep.
04:48So let's say...
04:49Two butterflies.
04:51Oh, I think it's Roxanne.
04:53Oh, I see.
04:54Well, it is one word, a one-word police song.
04:56Yeah.
04:57Okay, let's see.
04:58Roxanne.
05:00Yeah, well done.
05:01Yeah.
05:01Good point.
05:02Okay, these next ones might be a little tougher to crack.
05:05Carol and Charlene, here's yours.
05:09Seven letters, Chinese zodiac.
05:11Ah, so the year of thee.
05:15So, so the first letter and the last letter are the same.
05:19And then there's a double.
05:21There's the year of the horse, the snake, the monkey.
05:24What else could it be?
05:26Like, genuinely.
05:27That's likely to be a double E, do you think?
05:30Yeah.
05:30And an R.
05:32Rooster.
05:33Oh, yes, that is one.
05:34Rooster.
05:35S-T-E, yeah.
05:37Yeah?
05:37Yeah.
05:37Should we go with that?
05:38Yeah, yeah.
05:38All right.
05:39Is it rooster?
05:41Yeah.
05:42Well done, Cachina.
05:44Over to Sally and Joe for your next cipher.
05:48So, eight letters now.
05:50Hot drink.
05:50Okay, we've got two, I've got three eight balls there.
05:54Okay, so we've got a hot drink.
05:57Cappuccino.
05:58Cappuccino.
05:58Is that right?
05:59What's that double cap?
06:01No, it can't be because that's a name.
06:03No, no, it might be that.
06:05Okay, let's think then.
06:06What's that double letter?
06:09Espresso.
06:09No, 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.
06:20What are you saying?
06:20Espresso.
06:21Espresso.
06:22It is espresso.
06:23Was that a spelling thing?
06:25Were you going...
06:26Yeah.
06:26It was me.
06:26I'm terrible at spelling anyway.
06:28So, 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 where I was thinking.
06:36That's the confusion.
06:37Yeah.
06:37Okay, the level might get a bit harder again now for your final ones each.
06:41Carolyn and Charlene, it's a brilliant round so far.
06:43Keep it up.
06:45Two four-letter words, celebration.
06:50Yeah, so the two...
06:51Two, what would that be?
06:53And then the two vowels are the same, obviously.
06:57Celebration.
06:57What would a celebration be?
06:59A birthday party.
07:01Yeah.
07:03A 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.
07:14Okay, let me give you a letter.
07:16That's an I.
07:17The infinity symbol is an I.
07:22I'm trying to get that percentage letter.
07:26The celebration's up there.
07:29I can give you another letter.
07:32Okay, Jeremy.
07:33Give us another letter.
07:34Okay, here 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...
07:41The 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.
07:50Nice.
07:50Yeah.
07:51Well, that was difficult.
07:52So, chance for Joe and Sally to get a bit ahead here.
07:56Here's yours.
07:58Six letters.
08:00Okay.
08:002020s film.
08:01Blimey.
08:03Oh, that's difficult from scratch.
08:05It could be anything, couldn't it?
08:072020s film.
08:08I think it might be a name, because it's just, you know...
08:12What, a person's name?
08:12Well, I'm just thinking it could be, because it's just one word.
08:15Yeah.
08:17I'm 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.
08:20Yeah.
08:20Okay, 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.
08:38Okay, 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.
08:52Ooh, I want to see the scoreboards now.
08:54At the end of that round, Carol and Charlene have got...
08:57Seven points.
08:58Yes.
08:59But matching them pound for pound, Joe and Sally...
09:01Seven.
09:01On seven.
09:02Oh!
09:03Well 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, OK.
09:40Pence, I would say.
09:42Pence.
09:42Pence, all right.
09:43And steer one.
09:43Yeah.
09:44And steer.
09:44There 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.
09:52You'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.
10:09Oh, that's award.
10:12Award, put the A in.
10:15And that's fence, F-E-N maybe?
10:19What's that?
10:20Hypes, P.
10:23No, but that doesn't work.
10:24What's that?
10:25Feeds, feeds.
10:28So, P.
10:29Well done.
10:31Well done, brilliant.
10:33A lovely shade of green there.
10:35OK, 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.
10:45OK, so if you're ready, your time starts now.
10:48OK, what have we got?
10:50Eagle.
10:51I'll put that in.
10:52Clogs.
10:53Yeah.
10:56Solve, which should be ironic.
10:59Offer.
11:00Gold, yes.
11:01Offer.
11:02Golf, yeah.
11:03Go-offer.
11:05Well done.
11:05Eagle, clogs, solve, offer.
11:08Yes.
11:09That's a whole beginning of a novel.
11:11Yes, it really is.
11:12Or a headline of a very strange story.
11:15OK, another one for you.
11:16Vinyl 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, yes.
11:28You've got the P.
11:30Shrug.
11:31R.
11:33Graff.
11:34Oh, one of my favourites.
11:36And local.
11:37So what will that be?
11:38Uh, oh.
11:41Oh.
11:42No, that's not that.
11:43That's it.
11:44Loyal.
11:45There you go.
11:46Loyal.
11:47Spray.
11:49There we go.
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.
12:00You're welcome.
12:00And calm, I think.
12:01You're working well together and calm at this stage, yeah.
12:03Good 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 thirdal.
12:32Best of luck.
12:46Puzzlers, did you manage to complete the thirdal?
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 thirdal.
13:02Now remember, you're going to see three words each with the third letter missing.
13:05You'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.
13:13So 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, www.jewel.com.
13:21Okay, hang on a minute.
13:22So what's this one?
13:23Slyly?
13:24Slow, slow.
13:25What is it?
13:25Slow, slow.
13:26What is it?
13:26It's got to be a vowel.
13:28Okay, what's that?
13:28Use.
13:29What's that?
13:32Usher?
13:32Usher?
13:33That's just good.
13:34Okay, Y.
13:35Oh, that's not.
13:36No, that's not.
13:36Slyly?
13:37Slyly, 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.
13:52Okay.
13:52Could be an S again, passe.
13:54Passé or past?
13:56No, no, it's passe.
13:57Passé, let's try it.
13:58Passé.
13:58Okay.
13:59What's that?
14:00Moved, V.
14:01Moved, V.
14:01Could put a V there.
14:02So what's that?
14:04Goose, could be an O.
14:05Goose, even O.
14:06S, V, no, it's not getting S, V.
14:07Okay, hold on.
14:08Let's go, what's this, Luna?
14:09Okay, Luna, put an N there then.
14:11So Luna, N.
14:11End up there, Luna.
14:12Okay, so that's something.
14:14So what's that?
14:15Let's get rid of that.
14:16So, um.
14:17Moved, no, it wouldn't be a V.
14:19So, is that, are we saying that's Goose?
14:21Yeah, it could be, oh.
14:23Okay, this is Moped.
14:26So is that something else?
14:26Oh, that's not Spon then, okay.
14:28What is that?
14:29Is that something?
14:29Ten seconds.
14:32It's Moped, what is it?
14:35Past?
14:36Time running out.
14:37Oh, no, no, no.
14:38Oh, now look.
14:40Passé would work.
14:41Could it be pause?
14:43Oh, give me a you, give me a you.
14:46Then we've got it, but well done.
14:48Not well done, because you're lost.
14:50But well done on Moped.
14:51Your final puzzle has five words to solve,
14:53and you'll need to spell a new five-letter word.
14:55It's worth a bump of five points.
14:57Let's go, your time starts.
14:59Now.
15:01Laser, maybe?
15:02This could be an S there then.
15:04Okay, what's this?
15:05Green.
15:06Sean.
15:06Green.
15:08Okay, green.
15:08Sean.
15:09That could be salty, could be an S there.
15:11That could be an L there.
15:12Salty.
15:12What's this then?
15:14Salty.
15:15Wilt.
15:16Wilt.
15:17Wilt.
15:19Okay, so what's that then?
15:20This is not right.
15:21No, so much green there.
15:22Sean, shine.
15:23Shield.
15:24Shine.
15:26Shine.
15:28Shield, is that an S?
15:29Sealed, an F.
15:30Laser, is that a word?
15:32Sealed.
15:32No, that's not right.
15:33Sealed.
15:34Sealed.
15:35Sealed.
15:35Ten seconds.
15:36Laser.
15:37No.
15:38No, that's not right.
15:39Shane, shine, sheen, green.
15:42Salty, that's not right.
15:44Oh!
15:45You see it.
15:46It's a Y.
15:47It's a Y.
15:47It's a Y.
15:48Yeah.
15:50Ys do give us trouble.
15:53Go on, Joe.
15:53Get the Y.
15:55Yield.
15:55Yield.
15:56We need two more seconds.
15:58Sorry.
15:58Okay, let's see what's happened to the scoreboard now.
16:00Head back to your seats.
16:01It's bad.
16:01It's very bad.
16:02It's not bad.
16:03It's, I would call it grave, but not yet.
16:05Yeah, it's very bad.
16:06No, I say it's bad.
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.
16:28Sally and Joe lagging a bit on 10.
16:33Oh, that's not bad.
16:33No, you can catch.
16:34You've got the double feet.
16:35You just need a push.
16:37Really?
16:37I thought it'd be less than that.
16:38Okay.
16:38That's not bad.
16:39The next puzzle is one we can count on.
16:41It is time to play.
16:42Three, 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.
16:52Two 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...
17:03An apple.
17:05Yeah, wine, beer and pips.
17:07Wine, beer, pips, yeah?
17:08What do you think, Jokey?
17:09I think it's skin, pips, core with apple.
17:12Oh, I see.
17:12All parts of it.
17:13Yeah, yeah, of course it is.
17:14Yeah, well done.
17:15And wine and beer is balls.
17:17Yeah.
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, rod, potato, leek.
17:33Oh, okay.
17:34Potato and leek, water...
17:36Obviously, leek and potato you want to put together because that's C.
17:40Leek away, water away, water...
17:42Pink...
17:43Oh, gosh.
17:46Divine...
17:47Divine...
17:49Divine in rod, water divine...
17:52Can you find me the trio?
17:54I don't know any of this.
17:55So, I'm going to go for...
17:58The word pink and water is it, for whatever reason, is the...
18:02OK.
18:03And then...
18:04Potato and leek.
18:04Yeah.
18:05OK, vegetables, yeah.
18:06Yeah, vegetables.
18:07And then the odd one out.
18:08Fridge.
18:09Fridge, OK.
18:09Are you right?
18:12Yes.
18:14I'll tell you why.
18:15So, hot rod, hot pink, hot water.
18:19And there 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.
18:29The 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.
18:42Stand, Bo Peep, national, median.
18:45OK, median, obviously, is a kind of average.
18:50Little Bo Peep, little finger.
18:53Little finger, little Bo Peep.
18:54Peep.
18:55Right, with a two.
18:56Yeah.
18:57Grand theft auto.
18:59Grand national.
18:59Grand national.
19:00Grand 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.
19:13OK.
19:13And median is the odd one out.
19:16So, 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.
19:24Grand stand, grand national.
19:25And then little finger, little Bo Peep, you're right.
19:28And then median, the odd one out.
19:29Well done.
19:30Well played.
19:31All right, the next one for Sal and Joe.
19:34OK.
19:36The Smith's knee, elbow, oasis, shoulder carry.
19:41OK, so the Smith's oasis and elbow are obviously bands.
19:44Yeah, but they're not together.
19:46They're not together, so it can't be that.
19:47So, OK, I've got it.
19:48So the Smith's and oasis are Mancunian bands.
19:51Yep.
19:52Shoulder, knee and elbow are joints.
19:54Elbow together, joints, yeah, 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.
20:01OK.
20:02And the pair?
20:03Smith's oasis.
20:05Yep.
20:05The odd one out.
20:06Carry on its own.
20:07OK.
20:07Let's see if that's right.
20:09Yes.
20:10You've got a straight line, the Smith's.
20:12So the Smith's, one of the greatest bands of all time.
20:14Oasis are Mancunian bands.
20:17Knee, elbow, shoulder, the trio, carry the odd one out.
20:19Yeah.
20:20Exactly right.
20:20And the little foxy thing there was that 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.
20:37Yes.
20:37Communication.
20:40Text, message, answering, answering machine.
20:44No.
20:44Oh, yes, answering machine and pinball machine.
20:48That could be the two, but then we haven't got a three.
20:51No.
20:51Text machine, email machine.
20:52Pigeon hole.
20:52Cat, yes, got it.
20:53Go on.
20:54Answering machine, pinball machine, cash machine, email and text,
20:57pigeon is on its own.
20:59OK.
20:59I'll go with you.
21:00Yeah.
21:00Go on, Charlene, say it again.
21:01Go.
21:02So cash 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.
21:10OK.
21:11Are you right?
21:13Yay!
21:14Good question.
21:15Give her a bit.
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,
21:27and the odd one out is pigeon.
21:28Sally and Joe, here's the next one for you.
21:30So, emu, ostrich, helicopter, whale, drone, hummingbird.
21:35Oh, this is interesting.
21:37Yep.
21:37OK.
21:39So, emu, ostrich, and hummingbird, obviously, are birds.
21:42Some flightless, though.
21:43Some flightless birds.
21:44Flightless birds.
21:45Could be, emu and ostrich could be flightless, well.
21:48Helicopter, hummingbird, and drone.
21:49Um, oh, hang on.
21:52That might be helicopter, hummingbird, and drone are, they can hover.
21:56Yeah, hover, yeah, that's right.
21:57Look, I'm doing it, I'm doing it.
21:58Yeah, you're doing it.
21:59That's very good.
22:00Ostrich, emu, and both emu, and both.
22:02Do 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.
22:09We did our answer through the power of visual dance.
22:14Emu and ostrich, you say, are, do you say flightless birds?
22:17Flightless birds.
22:17Flightless birds.
22:18And whale, you say, is the odd one out.
22:20Odd one out.
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, two 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.
22:42Here 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.
23:21Give us your three.
23:22We're going with the word piano after each of these.
23:26Electronic, grand and upright.
23:29And then the twosome, hopefully, are Noel Coward and John Gielgud as 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 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.
23:54They're both 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?
24:03At the end of that round, Sally and Joe have 16.
24:07Carol and Charlene have got 25.
24:09Oh.
24:10Thank you.
24:11Yep, Sally'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.
24:20Yeah, 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.
24:27Once we've all had a few moments to decompress.
24:30Here for you if you need it.
24:31We'll see you back here soon.
24:36If you want to keep puzzling,
24:37see if you can pick which letter to move one space up or down in the alphabet
24:41to 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 array of extremely tricky trivia.
25:10In this next bit, we single out Joe and Charlene.
25:13We'll celebrate them from the comfort of their team captains.
25:15We'll subject them to a solo puzzling test now.
25:17Okay.
25:18So it is time for the celebrity guest head-to-head and the game is up or down.
25:25Here's how it works.
25:26You will see a clue plus a series of letters on the screen.
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 M there, it could be an L or an N.
25:40That'd be clock.
25:40It's a timepiece.
25:42C, L, Charlene.
25:43He's got it.
25:44Yeah?
25:44Just an example.
25:46Clock.
25:47Yeah.
25:47Yeah.
25:48Okay.
25:48Here we go.
25:49Five puzzles to solve.
25:50Fingers on buzzers.
25:51Guests, here's your first one.
25:54Okay.
25:55Q, H, K, P, S.
25:56Category, flying.
25:58Flying.
25:59They go up or down.
26:03Oh, God.
26:03H, K, K.
26:05Oh.
26:06Oh.
26:06Charlene.
26:07No, Charlene.
26:07Pilot.
26:08Let's see.
26:09Cool.
26:10Let's see this.
26:10Yeah.
26:11Yeah.
26:14Fingers on buzzers.
26:15Here's the next.
26:17Five-letter word.
26:19The category is snack.
26:21U, P, B, R, U.
26:24S, D.
26:26You could be toast.
26:29Charlene.
26:29Toast.
26:30Oh.
26:32Is it toast?
26:33Yep.
26:34She is.
26:35Good.
26:36Did you get that?
26:36Okay.
26:37Here's the answer.
26:40B, G, F, F, J, Z.
26:42And it's impudent, the clue.
26:45Yeah.
26:46So, B can be A or C.
26:49Yeah.
26:50C, E, F, G.
26:52Ooh.
26:53Where do we go here?
26:55Double letter in the middle.
26:56Ish.
26:57Oh.
26:59Hang on.
27:06Time counting down.
27:08Oh, I've got a bit of it.
27:08It's a double letter as the key.
27:10Double F could be E or G.
27:13G, G, G, G, G.
27:18Oh, it's one letter.
27:20I can't get G again.
27:21And can you get it before it times out?
27:25Oh.
27:26Let's see the answer.
27:29Impudent.
27:30Shiki.
27:31The double E.
27:32No, I wouldn't have got that.
27:33And the Z was a Y at the end there.
27:35Action stations.
27:36Time for another.
27:37Not another one.
27:38I hate this.
27:39Joe and Charlene.
27:39Yeah, come on, Joe.
27:42So, six letters.
27:42Decoration.
27:47No doubles in there.
27:51L could be K or M.
27:57Oh, it's hard.
27:59M-O-I-S-I.
28:02Charlene.
28:03Mosaic.
28:03I think you might be right, you know.
28:05Is it mosaic?
28:06It is.
28:07Dear me.
28:07What a good play.
28:09Yeah.
28:09Because that's just straight because you naturally see the B at the end and you think,
28:12well, that must be an A.
28:13Yeah.
28:14Because there's so few words that end in C.
28:16Yeah.
28:16So, that was good play, Charlene.
28:17Here's the final one.
28:19Not one more, no.
28:20See if you can do this, Joe.
28:21Come on.
28:22No, I can't do this one.
28:24It's all above me.
28:26Five letters.
28:27Wading Bird.
28:28D-Q-B-M-F.
28:31Thank you.
28:32Oh, Joe.
28:34Crane.
28:35Crane?
28:37Yes.
28:38There he's got one.
28:40He's got one.
28:42Good stuff.
28:43Joe scored two.
28:44Charlene scored six.
28:45Let's look at the scores for each team.
28:48Sally and Joe, 18.
28:50Moving up.
28:51Carol and Charlene, 31.
28:53Oh, that's skyrocketing.
28:56So, did you get a few of those at home?
28:57If you did very well play, they're not easy and it would sort of make you
29:01your eyes go fuzzy after a while.
29:02It's time for our next puzzle.
29:04We've got all the right letters, just not necessarily in the right order.
29:08This is form and orderly cue.
29:13So, here's form and orderly cue.
29:14This is how it works.
29:16A question will appear.
29:17Somehow, our supercomputer has reordered each word alphabetically rather than how it should
29:22be written.
29:23Maybe guests have a go because it's good practice.
29:26When did London last host the Olympic Games?
29:29Well, let's see.
29:29So, what's the answer?
29:30Out of interest.
29:31I don't know when that is.
29:32No, I don't know.
29:33Was it 2012?
29:34There you go.
29:34Yeah, let's see.
29:352012.
29:35Oh, so you don't give that.
29:36Yeah, well done.
29:36Yeah.
29:36And then we unscramble the question.
29:38Right, okay.
29:39You need to decipher the question and then buzz in when you know the answer.
29:42Here we go.
29:43First one.
29:45I need the answer.
29:47Carol.
29:4812.
29:5012.
29:52It's right, yeah.
29:53Let's unscramble that question.
29:55How many inches are there in a foot?
29:58Get ready on the buzzers.
29:59Here we go.
30:06Carol.
30:07Oh, I can see him.
30:08Sorry.
30:09No.
30:11You can steal.
30:12William Shatner.
30:13Yes.
30:14William Shatner is the answer.
30:17Yes, it is.
30:18I just couldn't remember the answer.
30:19I know, okay, I know.
30:20You buzzed when you worked the question out.
30:22Not when you got the answer.
30:23Here is the question.
30:24Let's unscramble.
30:25Who played Captain Kirk in the original Star Trek TV series?
30:29Here's the next one.
30:33Capital D in there.
30:37Joe.
30:37Dumbo.
30:38Yes.
30:39Dumbo.
30:40Yeah.
30:41You got it right.
30:43Joe, well done.
30:44Thank you.
30:45This is really good.
30:45Let's unscramble it.
30:47What is the title of the Disney film about a flying elephant?
30:50Dumbo is the answer.
30:51I didn't know that.
30:52So good.
30:53So, yeah, Capitals help here.
30:55Yeah.
30:55But, you know, our two captains have done a few of these, so they've got their eyes in, as it
30:59were.
30:59The questions might get a little bit more difficult here as well.
31:01Fingers back on buzzers, please.
31:04Here's number four for you.
31:12Sally.
31:13Fat Boy Slim.
31:13Fat Boy Slim.
31:16Let's see if that's right.
31:18Yes.
31:19Yes.
31:19I think we've got Norman Cook in there, haven't we?
31:22The Capitals help us.
31:23Let's have a look.
31:24By what name is the musician and DJ Norman Cook better known?
31:27So here's another question.
31:29This round is interesting, isn't it?
31:34Lots of capital letters.
31:36There's the question.
31:37All scrambled.
31:42Oh.
31:50OK, go, just do it.
31:51I'm trying to think about the answer.
31:54Just go.
31:58And I can read you about it.
31:59Time's ticking.
32:03Oh, let's have a look.
32:06Dua Lipa.
32:07That's tough.
32:08And the albums, let's see the question.
32:11Future nostalgia and radical optimism are albums by which pop star?
32:16Final form and orderly cue puzzle.
32:18Get ready, please.
32:19Here we go.
32:20Everybody.
32:26Two words in inverted commas there.
32:29Useful capital letters.
32:33Carol?
32:34Dolphins.
32:35Dolphins.
32:36Oh, no, it's course it is.
32:38Yeah.
32:39Yeah, you can.
32:40You're a clever woman.
32:41OK.
32:42So, unscramble the question yet.
32:44Yeah, so Joe has seen bottlenose in there.
32:46Bottlenose and spinner.
32:47A species of which marine mammal.
32:50And we do have a spinner dolphin.
32:52And a bottlenose dolphin.
32:53Nicely worked there.
32:55Medical scientist Carol.
32:57At the end of that round, Sally and Joe have got 23.
33:00Carol and Charlene have got 35.
33:02You're still pacing them.
33:05They're on your shoulder, guys.
33:08Time for our penultimate round.
33:09Here we shake things up somewhat.
33:10Both teams will be tackling the letterbox.
33:12The fastest team to solve their puzzle this time receives two useful bonus points.
33:16It's all to play for in Letterbox Ladder.
33:21Let's see how Letterbox Ladder works.
33:23You will see three key words appear on the screen and in between a series of spaces where
33:28you need to find the connections that link the words.
33:30So, for example, you've got to find the word that comes after birthday, before stand, after
33:34stand, before life.
33:35Cake.
33:35Birthday cake.
33:36OK, yes, good.
33:37Notice how the letters are taken from the top there, the top right.
33:39And cake stand.
33:41And then stand something.
33:42Stand still.
33:44Yep.
33:45And then still life.

36:04Before Sally and Joe face their crucial letterbox ladder to catch up, we're duty bound
36:09to take a short break.
36:10So join us for the climax of celebrity puzzling in a matter of seconds.
36:17Here's a letterbox ladder for you to solve during the break.
36:20The two clues are linked by what missing word?
36:23Good luck figuring it out.
36:35Did you successfully conquer the letterbox ladder?
36:40If you solved it, well done.
36:44Welcome back to Celebrity Puzzling.

36:47I'm Jeremy Vine.
36:49I am charged with anticipation.
36:51You join me at a pivotal moment.
36:53We aren't about to find out if Mrs. Vine will let me buy another bicycle.
36:57We are going to find out which of Carol and Charlene, or Sally and Joe, are going to be in
37:03the leading
37:03position going into the final.
37:05And what's so interesting is these two have played a blinder and now they've had a setback and you can
37:09now 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, which means that if you complete all three, you're guaranteed the two
37:20bonus points.
37:21Remember, once you solve all three, hit the button.
37:24Good luck.
