00:00Oh no!
00:02It's a boy!
00:04Let's meet the team.
00:08I'm Rachel.
00:09I'm Scott.
00:09I'm Tara.
00:10And I'm Daniel.
00:11Welcome team, how do you know each other?
00:13We met four years ago at uni and we used to live together.
00:16What uni?
00:17Glasgow uni.
00:18What a fine university it is!
00:21And you're still all friends?
00:23We are just, yeah.
00:25Just?
00:25Yeah.
00:26So who put the team together?
00:27I put the team together.
00:28Did you Rachel?
00:29Why?
00:30Did you do it?
00:30I just thought it would be a good bit of fun.
00:33What would you like to see on the bridge today?
00:35We would like a little bit of science for Daniel.
00:38A little bit of film and TV.
00:40We've got some film and TV students here.
00:42A bit of history, maybe a bit of geography.
00:44Right, shall we get on with it?
00:46Yes.
00:46All that stands between you and a cash prize today are five crossings.
00:51You'll each have to take on the bridge banking as much money as you possibly can.
00:55Beat the bridge and you'll earn a place in our vault and anyone in there at the end will get
01:00to join forces to take on the final crossing.
01:04Are you ready?
01:05Yes!
01:07Bridge, can you please reveal the opening category?
01:11The first category is...
01:14Numbers.
01:15Numbers.
01:16Has to be Daniel.
01:17It's going to be Daniel.
01:18Has to be Daniel.
01:18Is it you Daniel?
01:19Yeah, I think it's me Ross.
01:21Daniel, come and join me on the bridge.
01:23Woo!
01:23Daniel.
01:33Hello.
01:34Hello.
01:35Welcome to the bridge.
01:36Thank you very much.
01:37How are you feeling?
01:39A bit nervous, but feeling good.
01:40Well, you are first up.
01:42What are you studying at the moment?
01:43I study medicine.
01:44So I'm in my final year.
01:46So that's...
01:46I will have my first job as a doctor next year.
01:48I start next August.
01:49Do you know where you're going?
01:51Not yet, no.
01:52You kind of apply for the whole country and then they can kind of send you anywhere.
01:57So it's a mystery.
01:58Alright, let's move on.
02:00You've got five minutes on the clock.
02:02Every correct step is worth £100.
02:05Step on a lie and your money is halved.
02:07Hit three lies and your crossing is over.
02:11There are ten lies on the bridge, but remember there is always a path to safety.
02:15There are two safety zones on the bridge where we can stop the clock and reveal a lie.
02:22And in the waiting room there is the panic button.
02:25If your teammates press it, they'll send you to the vault with any money that you've banked up to that
02:30point.
02:31But it can only be used once.
02:34The category is numbers, bridge.
02:38What are we looking for?
02:40Sixes and sevens.
02:42Okay.
02:42We are looking for things that add up to six or seven or include the numbers six or seven in
02:51their name.
02:52Lies are other numbers.
02:54Okay.
02:55Your five minutes starts now.
02:59James Bond's MI6 agent code.
03:04Gold rings in the 12 days of Christmas.
03:08Okay, so I know the gold rings is five gold rings.
03:13James Bond's MI6 agent code is 007.
03:15So I'm going to lock in 007.
03:18Truth or lie.
03:20That is a truth.
03:21That opens up.
03:23Deadly sins in Christian theology.
03:26Inches equal to half a foot.
03:28Okay, I'm not too sure on that inch is equal to half a foot.
03:32But I'm pretty sure it's the seven deadly sins.
03:36So I'm going to lock in.
03:37Truth or lie.
03:38That is the truth.
03:40That opens up.
03:41Legs on adult beetles and butterflies.
03:45Enid Blyton series featuring Julian, Dick and Timmy.
03:50Wait.
03:50Wait, is sex on a beetle?
03:52I've never read Unid Blyton books.
03:55Four minutes remaining.
03:56Beetles and butterflies.
03:57I think they have six legs.
03:59So I'm going to go for this one.
04:00Truth or lie.
04:02That is the truth.
04:03That opens up.
04:05Stars on the EU flag.
04:07Sides of a developed honeycomb cell.
04:11Remember, we're looking for sixes and sevens.
04:13I'm not sure how many stars are on the EU flag,
04:16but I think it's more than six or seven.
04:17So I think honeycomb might have six sides.
04:21So I'm going to go for this one.
04:23Truth or lie.
04:25Yes, the hexagons.
04:26That opens up.
04:28Tiles each player draws to begin Scrabble.
04:32Moons of Mars.
04:35Sides of a 50 pence coin.
04:38Okay, so I think that might be five or it could be six actually.
04:43The moons of Mars I don't have a clue on.
04:45The tiles each player draws to begin Scrabble.
04:47So I think it is maybe seven.
04:50Truth or lie.
04:51It is seven.
04:53That opens up the safety zone.
04:54Stop the clock.
04:55It also opens up Premier League title wins by Pep Guardiola
05:00and Nobel Prize categories.
05:04Bridge, please reveal a lie.
05:07Okay.
05:07They're in the famous five.
05:09Right.
05:10Your time starts now.
05:13Okay.
05:15Premier League title wins by Pep Guardiola.
05:18I'm dreadful at football.
05:19I don't even know who that is.
05:21Nobel Prize categories.
05:23I'm trying to think.
05:24There's...
05:26Is there as many as six?
05:28Moons of Mars.
05:33Sides of a 50 pence coin.
05:35I'm going to take a risk and I think it is six.
05:37I'm sure there's seven.
05:39Truth or lie.
05:41There's seven that opens up members of the Wu-Tang Clan,
05:45hills of ancient Rome, faces of an original Rubik's Cube.
05:49Yeah.
05:50Okay.
05:51We're looking for sixes and sevens.
05:53I'm going to go back and go on to Nobel Prize categories.
06:00Truth or lie.
06:01There's six of those that opens up counties in Northern Ireland.
06:05Countries that border Switzerland, windows version that succeeded Vista.
06:11Switzerland's bordered by a lot because they speak German, Italian.
06:15Okay, I'm not too sure on the windows.
06:16Countries that border Switzerland or counties in Northern Ireland.
06:21I have a feeling it could be countries that border Switzerland.
06:24I know it does have a lot.
06:26I'm just going to go for this one.
06:27Truth or lie.
06:29Oh, it has five.
06:31Okay.
06:31Nothing's going to open up.
06:33That's fine.
06:35You've halved your money down to 350.
06:37Okay.
06:37Think about where you're going to step next.
06:39Windows version that succeeded Vista.
06:43Time's ticking, Daniel.
06:44Okay.
06:45I've got one minute 20.
06:46I'm going to go for counties in Northern Ireland.
06:48Truth or lie.
06:50It is truth.
06:51Six, I believe.
06:52That opens up finger or thumb holes on a typical recorder.
06:57Okay.
06:58I've never played the recorder, which doesn't help.
07:04One minute remaining.
07:06Okay, one minute.
07:06I guess it could be it's eight because you need your thumbs to hold it.
07:09I think I'm going to have to go for this one.
07:13Truth or lie.
07:15That's window seven.
07:16That opens up British monarchs named George Planet of the Apesville.
07:20I'm going to go for British monarchs.
07:21Truth or lie.
07:22I need to worry.
07:23There's been six of those.
07:24That opens up weapons in a standard Cluedo board game.
07:28Red stripes on the US national flag.
07:30Zeroes in one million.
07:31I know the red stripes.
07:32I don't think that's right.
07:33I'm going to go for women.
07:34Truth or lie.
07:36Yes, six weapons.
07:37That opens up Lewis Hamilton F1 world championship wins.
07:40Wimbledon title wins for Roger Federer.
07:43You've got a 50-50.
07:44You've just got under 20 seconds.
07:46I've got to go.
07:46So I'm leaning more towards Lewis Hamilton F1 world champion wins.
07:50I'm going to go for that.
07:51Truth or lie.
07:52That is the truth.
07:54He's won it seven times.
07:58£850.
07:59Let's take a look at the bridge.
08:01Well, take a look at the truths.
08:03There are six inches in half a foot.
08:06There are six faces on a Rubik's Cube.
08:09Seven hills of ancient Rome.
08:11Six wins by Pep Guardiola so far.
08:14Six zeros in eight million.
08:16And seven red stripes on the United States flag.
08:20Right.
08:20So you have made it across with £850.
08:25Unless your friends pressed the panic button.
08:29Should we find out?
08:30Yes.
08:31Rachel, Scott, Tara, not a bad start.
08:35£850.
08:36Very good.
08:36Quite tough.
08:37One lie.
08:38Yeah.
08:39But the big question is, did you or did you not press that panic button?
08:42Well, Daniel's a really good player and he did have that one lie.
08:46But we had complete faith in him.
08:48So we didn't press the button.
08:49Well played.
08:51They didn't hit that panic button.
08:53So, Daniel, with £850, please make your way to the vault.
09:06We had a good start.
09:08Great.
09:08Great bar.
09:09Yeah.
09:10Did brilliantly.
09:11Let's move on.
09:12Bridge, please reveal the second category.
09:15The second category is.
09:18Eurovision.
09:19Eurovision.
09:21I've never watched it.
09:22We've watched it.
09:23You've watched it.
09:23I'll take it.
09:24I can take it.
09:25I'll go.
09:26Scott, is it you?
09:27Yes.
09:27It'll be me.
09:28Scott, come and join me on the bridge.
09:30Yay!
09:31Go, Scott!
09:32You've got this.
09:32We've been leaving yet.
09:40Scott, welcome to the show.
09:42Thanks for having me.
09:43Oh, thank you for being here.
09:45So what are you studying?
09:46Film and TV.
09:47How's that going for you?
09:48It's good.
09:49I'm in my second year.
09:50I was doing primary teaching before, but I dropped out of that one.
09:53Why did you drop out of it?
09:54Placement was just quite hectic, I'd say.
09:59You sampled it and decided it wasn't for you?
10:02Yeah, I had a lot of taste.
10:03I went and not really.
10:04Right.
10:04The category is Eurovision.
10:07Bridge, what are we looking for?
10:10UK Eurovision acts.
10:12We are looking for music acts who have represented the UK at the Eurovision Song Contest.
10:18Right.
10:19Lies have not represented the UK.
10:22Okay.
10:23Your five minutes starts now.
10:27Lulu, Sam Rider.
10:29Okay, so I know Lulu has and I know Sam Rider has with Spaceman.
10:33So I'm just going to go with Sam Rider.
10:35Truth or Lie?
10:37Yes, with Spaceman.
10:38That opens up ABBA and Bucks Fizz.
10:41I know ABBA is definitely Swedish.
10:44Bucks Fizz, I also know, have definitely represented the UK.
10:47So Bucks Fizz it is.
10:49Truth or Lie?
10:51Yes, they won with Making Your Mind Up.
10:54That opens up Duncan Lawrence and Blue.
10:57I don't recognise Duncan Lawrence, but I do recognise Blue.
11:01And I'm pretty sure they represented them in like the 2010s.
11:05Like I think it was a big deal that they were doing the Eurovision.
11:07So I'm going to go with Blue.
11:09Truth or Lie?
11:11Yeah, in 2011 that opens up Michael Ball and Jedward.
11:15Jedward or Irish?
11:16So it would be Michael Ball.
11:17Okay, I know Jedward.
11:19I don't know if they're Northern Irish or Irish.
11:22But I'm pretty sure they've not represented us in Eurovision.
11:24I feel like I'd remember that.
11:27I'm going to just take a risk and go for Michael Ball.
11:30Because I don't know who that is.
11:31Truth or Lie?
11:33That is a truth that opens up Tom Jones, Black Lace and Scooch.
11:38Scooch.
11:39Remember, we're looking for UK Eurovision Acts.
11:41I know Tom Jones.
11:43I don't know the other two.
11:44I'm 90% sure Tom Jones hasn't represented us.
11:49Between the two, just because it's close to the safety, I'm going to go for Scooch.
11:53Truth or Lie?
11:55That is a truth that opens up the safety zone.
11:58So you can stop the clock, opens up Sonia and it opens up Sunita.
12:02What are you going to do?
12:03I'm going to, yeah.
12:04Stop the clock?
12:05Yeah.
12:06Good idea.
12:06Rich, please reveal a lie.
12:10They've represented Ireland twice.
12:14Oh.
12:14Your time starts now.
12:17I recognise both the names.
12:20I feel like, I think Sonia might be from the 80s.
12:24Sunita, I think...
12:26I'm just going to go for Sonia.
12:27Truth or Lie?
12:30Yes, in 93.
12:32That opens up Max Monroe.
12:34Three minutes, you mean?
12:35Have you ever heard of that guy's name?
12:37Do you think they could...
12:38Remember, there is always a path.
12:40Yeah.
12:40Just have to find.
12:44I'm going to go for Martin Monroe.
12:46Truth or Lie?
12:491964.
12:50That opens up.
12:51Oh.
12:51The New Seekers and Gojo.
12:54You're at £700.
12:55Just over two and a half minutes.
12:58Hmm.
12:59I don't recognise either of these names.
13:01Do you know either?
13:02No.
13:03Neither.
13:03No.
13:03I'm going to go for The New Seekers.
13:07Truth or Lie?
13:09That is a truth.
13:10That opens up.
13:12Live report, same difference.
13:14And Inglebert Humperdinck.
13:18That's an interesting name.
13:21Um...
13:22Ooh.
13:22I don't recognise any of these people.
13:25Remember, we're looking for UK Eurovision Acts.
13:29Two minutes remaining.
13:33I'm going to go for...
13:35Live report.
13:36Truth or Lie?
13:38That is a truth that opens up.
13:41Bardo, Linda Martin and Love City Groove.
13:45You've got a 50-50 there and you've got lots of time.
13:48Go for either, then go get Lulu for money.
13:49Yeah.
13:49Go there, go back.
13:50I'm really not sure on either of these.
13:54Love City Groove...
13:56Like, I remember people doing one and they had, like, neon outfits.
14:00I don't know.
14:01That kind of sounds like a name they'd have.
14:03Linda Martin.
14:05I'm trying to think if she's got time on a string.
14:09No.
14:10Just wait, something might come to you.
14:12Yeah.
14:14I'm going to go back and get...
14:16And see if I know any other ones.
14:21Right.
14:21I know Lulu.
14:22So I'm going to go for...
14:23Truth or Lie?
14:25Yes.
14:26With Boone Banger Bang, that opens up Sandy Shaw.
14:29Sang Papa on a string.
14:30Truth or Lie?
14:31Yes.
14:32With Puppet on a string.
14:34That opens up Celine Dion, Katrina and the Waves.
14:37In the audience represented...
14:39You've got under a minute now.
14:41Okay.
14:42I'm going to go for Katrina and the Waves.
14:43Truth or Lie?
14:46Yes, they won with Love, Shine a Light.
14:49That opens up Gina G.
14:53Erm...
14:53I think Cool as a Cucumber is...
14:5530 seconds for me.
14:56Here we come.
14:59All right.
15:00You're out to your 50-50.
15:02I'm going Linda Martin, but I don't know it.
15:04She sounds fresh.
15:05I'm going to...
15:05Something's showing out to me for Linda Martin, so I'm just going to go for it.
15:08Truth or Lie?
15:10It's a lie.
15:12It's a lie.
15:12She won for Ireland in 92.
15:13Truth or Lie?
15:14It's a truth.
15:15It is a truth.
15:17700 pounds.
15:19Not to be sniffed at.
15:21No.
15:21Let's take a look at the bridge.
15:24Here are the other truths.
15:26Gina G entered in with ooh, ah, just a little bit.
15:29Black Lace represented the UK in 1979.
15:33Engelbert Humperdinck in 2012.
15:36And Bardot in 1982.
15:39So, Scott, you've made it across with 700 pounds.
15:43Unless your teammates press that panic button.
15:46Shall we take a look?
15:46Yeah.
15:47Rachel, Tara, not too bad at all.
15:51Not bad at all.
15:52Amazing.
15:52Yep.
15:53So the question is, did you press that panic button?
15:56We did not.
15:57You didn't need it.
15:58You didn't need it.
15:58You didn't need to.
15:59No.
16:00No way.
16:00And you've saved it for yourselves now, haven't you?
16:03Very selfish, I know.
16:04Scott, with 700 pounds, please make your way to the vault.
16:16Let's go to the vault and give Daniel the news.
16:20Scott just made it across and joins you with 700 pounds.
16:26Oh, I'm so happy you made it.
16:28You did so well, well done.
16:30Rachel, Tara, how are you doing?
16:33We're doing good.
16:34We're good.
16:35Very proud of them.
16:361,550 pounds.
16:38We smashed it.
16:39Yeah.
16:40They have smashed it.
16:41But can you smash it?
16:43One can only hope.
16:44Yeah.
16:45Well, let's find out, shall we?
16:46Bridge.
16:47Can you please reveal the third category?
16:51The third category is...
16:54Plants.
16:55Plants.
16:55Oh, no.
16:57Well, do you want me to go and you can save me if I need it?
16:59Yeah.
16:59Or would you rather go?
17:00I'll let you go.
17:02OK, I'm going to go.
17:03Rachel, come and join me on the bridge.
17:05Good luck.
17:07You've got this.
17:16Rachel, welcome to the bridge.
17:18Hello.
17:19So, what are you studying?
17:20I'm doing primary teaching.
17:21I'm doing my masters right now.
17:23Oh, right.
17:24You're doing your masters?
17:25Yeah.
17:25So, in the primary area, what is your favourite age group?
17:29I quite like middle school, from what I've seen so far.
17:33They're like a nice age.
17:34Bridge.
17:34What age is that?
17:35Remind me.
17:36Seven, eight-year-olds, nine-year-olds maybe.
17:38What do you know about plants?
17:40Nothing.
17:41OK.
17:42Let's see how you get on.
17:43Yep.
17:44The category is plants.
17:46Bridge.
17:47What are we looking for?
17:49Edible flowers.
17:51So, we are looking for the names of flowers which are edible and safe to eat.
17:57Lies are poisonous or toxic to humans if ingested.
18:01This is according to the Royal Horticultural Society's website.
18:07OK.
18:08Your five minutes starts now.
18:13Wild garlic, jimson weed.
18:17Never heard of this, but I would imagine wild garlic is edible because you can eat garlic,
18:22unless the wild garlic makes it inedible.
18:26I'm not quite sure, but I'm going to try it.
18:28Truth or lie?
18:31That is the truth and it is edible.
18:32That opens up courgette flowers and dandelion.
18:36I'm not sure about courgette flowers, but I know for a fact you can put dandelion and teas and stuff,
18:42so I'll go for that.
18:43Truth or lie?
18:44That is the truth.
18:46That opens up black, briny, angels trumpet and sunflower.
18:52I know you can eat sunflower seeds.
18:54Smart thinking.
18:56I'm already feeling a little bit stuck.
18:59I'm going to try courgette flowers just because I know courgettes are edible, but we'll see.
19:05Truth or lie?
19:07That is the truth.
19:08Lovely with cheese.
19:09Four minutes remaining.
19:09That opens up Hawaiian hibiscus.
19:14Remember, we're looking for edible flowers.
19:17Hibiscus flowers, I'm sure, are edible.
19:21I'm sure I've heard of hibiscus tea as well.
19:23I know I'll keep going back to tea, but I'm going to try hibiscus.
19:26Truth or lie?
19:28That is the truth that opens up iris and common marigolds.
19:33Oh, well done.
19:34You're so close to safety zone.
19:36Iris.
19:37I don't imagine you can eat iris.
19:41Again, I'm not sure, but I'm going to try marigolds.
19:45Truth or lie?
19:47That is the truth that opens up borage, primrose and nasturtium.
19:54Okay.
19:56I don't have much logic anymore.
19:59Everything's looking a little bit foreign.
20:03Sounds like porridge.
20:05Truth or lie?
20:06Three minutes for me.
20:07That is the truth.
20:08It opens up the safety zone.
20:09Stop the clock.
20:10Yes, please.
20:10It also opens up mugworts and spurge laurel.
20:18Okay, Bridge, please reveal a lie.
20:22Okay.
20:22So, every part of an iris is poisonous.
20:26Okay.
20:26Good to know.
20:27Especially the roots, okay?
20:28I'll steer clear.
20:30Your time starts now.
20:33Okay.
20:35I'm feeling a little bit lost again.
20:38I've heard of mugwort.
20:42I might try it because I've heard of it.
20:45Truth or lie?
20:47That is the truth that opens up sweet Sicily.
20:53Okay.
20:55I'm just going to say I don't know any of these.
20:57Yes.
20:57And I like the number 700.
20:59I would keep that.
21:01Uh-huh.
21:02Because I think I'm going to half it very soon.
21:04So, I would lock in 700 pounds right now.
21:09Let's try this one.
21:10Truth or lie?
21:12That is the truth that opens up night-blooming jasmine and French sorrel.
21:18I'm going down the tea logic again.
21:20You can drink jasmine tea, so let's try night-blooming jasmine.
21:24Truth or lie?
21:26Oh, it's a lie.
21:27You've halved your money.
21:28Okay.
21:29I'm just going to go for this and hope that...
21:31Truth or lie?
21:32That is the truth that opens up tiger lily, cast the bean and Sherville.
21:38You are at 500 pounds.
21:41Okay.
21:42We're looking for edible flowers.
21:44Castor sugar, but that's spelt differently.
21:47Obviously, bean tends to be edible.
21:52Um...
21:52There's actually a little cocktail bar called tiger lily.
21:55I don't know if that means it's a garnish.
21:56I was going to say that.
21:58In Edinburgh.
21:59Lilies are poisonous to cats.
22:00Don't know if that's the same for humans.
22:02I'm just going to go for it.
22:03Truth or lie?
22:05That is the truth that opens up milkweed, chickweed and mistletoe.
22:11Hmm.
22:14You've got a 50-50 there and you've got over a minute.
22:17I would go back and get more, but I don't know any of them,
22:19so I'm not going to do that.
22:22Um...
22:23Milkweed I've heard of.
22:25I don't know why I've heard of it, but I have.
22:27Chickweed I've not.
22:29So for that awful logic, I'm going to go milkweed.
22:32Truth or lie?
22:33Right, here's the lie.
22:35So...
22:36Truth or lie?
22:38That is the truth.
22:39Okay.
22:40So, £400.
22:42Yes.
22:43You happy with that?
22:44Yeah, I'm hoping I got more, but...
22:46We'll see.
22:47Let's take a look at the bridge.
22:49Eleven truths, two lies.
22:50Jimson weed, although ornamental, it is poisonous.
22:55Black briny, native to the UK, toxic if you eat it.
22:59Angel's trumpet, all parts, highly poisonous.
23:02Spurge laurel, toxic if you eat it and it irritates your skin if you brush up against it.
23:07Castor bean has poisonous seeds and mistletoe is poisonous.
23:13You've made it across with £400, unless Tara was listening to your heavy planted suggestions.
23:20Excuse the word plant.
23:23Shall we find out?
23:25Tara.
23:27Well, Rachel was heavily hinting around the £700 mark.
23:31I don't know if you noticed that.
23:33Did you, Tara, press that panic button?
23:36Well, my hand may have slipped and press that panic button.
23:40So, let's see where you were when she hit it.
23:45I'm going to press the panic button because she says she wants to lock in £700.
23:53She pressed it when you had £800.
23:57So, Rachel, please make your way to the vaults.
24:08Let's go to the vaults and give Daniel and Scott the news.
24:13Hi.
24:14Hi.
24:15Now, Rachel had plants.
24:19And she's joining you with £800.
24:23Hello.
24:27Tara.
24:29£2,350.
24:33I'm very impressed.
24:35But I had no...
24:35I didn't believe them the whole way out yet.
24:37I completely had to believe them.
24:39Right.
24:40Bridge, please reveal the final category.
24:44The fourth category is...
24:47Television.
24:49That may have landed in your lap slightly.
24:52Of course.
24:53Just remind me what course you did at uni.
24:55Film and television.
24:56But don't get your hopes up.
24:57I've not watched that many things.
24:59Remember, you're the last person standing.
25:02Yeah.
25:02So, the bridge is going to double your money.
25:04So, every step is now worth £200.
25:07So, you could bank some serious cash.
25:10Yeah.
25:10And there's no panic button to save me.
25:11It's all me this time.
25:12There is no panic button.
25:13And it's all down to you.
25:14Tara, come and join me on the bridge.
25:25Tara, welcome to the bridge.
25:27Hello.
25:28How are you feeling?
25:29I'm happy with this category.
25:30But I don't want to get my hopes up too high.
25:32What could possibly go wrong?
25:34It could be like British television.
25:35I'm not that well versed.
25:36Well, what did you do when you were at uni then?
25:38I mean, I did a mix.
25:39But, like, personally, I'm not that fond of it.
25:41Well, you graduated anyway.
25:43I have graduated, yes.
25:44How's the job hunting going?
25:46I'm hunting.
25:48Yeah, well, it's a tough, tough profession.
25:50Yeah.
25:50But I'm ready for it.
25:52I'm ready for the world.
25:53Okay.
25:53The category is television.
25:55Bridge, what are we looking for?
25:58More than 50 episodes.
26:01We are looking for TV comedies

26:19Okay, The Big Bang Theory is a very long series.

26:22I'm sure it has, like, ten seasons.
26:23So I'm going to go here.
26:24Truth or Lie.
26:28279 episodes.
26:29That opens up Seinfeld and Cheers.
26:32I've not heard of Cheers, but I've heard of Seinfeld.
26:35And I'm pretty sure that goes on for a long time,
26:37so I'm going to go here.
26:39Truth or Lie.
26:43180 episodes.
26:44It opens the Vicar of Dibley and Sex and the City.
26:48Not familiar with that one, but I love Sex and the City.

26:53Truth or Lie.
26:55That is a truth.
26:56That opens up Last of the Summer Wine, Schitt's Creek and Derry Girls.
27:02Remember, we're looking for TV comedies with more than 50 episodes.
27:05Derry Girls, I'm not sure of.
27:06I'm pretty sure it has three seasons, but, like, around eight episodes each.
27:10Not seen Last of the Summer Wine, Schitt's Creek, I'm sure, is a sitcom type of show,
27:15so I'm going to go with this one.
27:16Truth or Lie.
27:1880 episodes.
27:19That opens up Brooklyn Nine-Nine, The Royal Family, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
27:27And between Brooklyn Nine-Nine and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia,
27:33erm...
27:34This is a tough one.
27:35I'm sure that's got a lot of episodes, but I'm sure that does too.
27:39I think I'm going to go with It's Always Sunny.
27:42Truth or Lie.
27:44OK.
27:45That is a truth.
27:46That opens up Will and Grace, The Inbetweeners and Hello, Hello.
27:51I don't think The Inbetweener has over 50 episodes.
27:55I could be wrong, so I'm going to go with Will and Grace.

27:59Cool.
27:59That is a truth.
28:00It opens up The Safety Zone.
28:01Can I go to the Safety Zone?

28:36Oh, no.
28:37So, this is getting more difficult.
28:39I am not familiar.
28:41So...
28:42I'm going to just go with Intuition right now.
28:45It's not great logic, so...
28:46One Foot In The Grave it is.
28:48Truth or Lie.
28:50Oh, no.
28:51I'm afraid.
28:52Sorry, guys.

31:13Woo!
31:14Now you'll face the final crossing and you're playing this one as a team.
31:18Remember, only one of you needs to make it across to win the money.
31:22But, before we start, the bridge has this offer.
31:26You could sell a player and double your money to £7,700.
31:33Wow.
31:36So, what's it going to be?
31:37I think we're going to play as a team, Ross.
31:40Yeah.
31:40I like it, Daniel.
31:41You came as a team, you stay as a team.
31:43Exactly that.
31:44So, you're playing for £3,850.
31:48What would you spend the money on?
31:49We just went away together in summer there.
31:52So, I think we'd like another holiday together because it was great.
31:54Where'd you go?
31:55We did a little interrail.
31:57Yeah?
31:57Bit of Spain, bit of France.

32:15The timer starts when I finish reading the last statement.
32:18Make sure you're on a step before the wave hits.
32:21If you're not, you're out of the game and the next player takes over.
32:25Now, please stand in the order that you'd like to play.
32:30Okay, Tara, you're first up.
