00:09I'm John, aged 72.
00:11People see me and they think,
00:13oh, he might have gone to a public school like Eton.
00:15And they're exactly right. I did go to Eton.
00:19I'm excited about the competition.
00:20It is a beautiful property, but the gates were shut.
00:24Clearly, it's not going to be a simple start.
00:33I would not consider myself academically intelligent,
00:37but if there's a competition, I'm winning it.
00:39Like, I will literally stop at nothing.
00:42Hello. I'm John. Ella.
00:44Nice to meet you.
00:46Today's all about first impressions,
00:48and we know first impressions last.
00:50I'm not wearing my smart glasses for nothing.
00:52Come on. Nice to meet you.
00:54Sometimes people see the braids and the muscles
00:56and forget that I actually have a brain under there.
01:00To open the gates,
01:02put the six celebrity names in age order,
01:05from the youngest to the oldest,
01:07by pressing the buttons.
01:09Liam Gallagher, Emily Atak,
01:12Danny Dyer, Kate Middleton,
01:14Beyoncé, Beckham.
01:16Do you know all of these?
01:17No. No, I don't.
01:19Emily Atak, how old does she look?
01:21Mid-30s.
01:22Danny Dyer.
01:23Didn't know Danny Dyer.
01:25He's in his senders.
01:26Like, late 40s, 50s.
01:29Kate will be 43, 44.
01:32Oh, perfect.
01:33Beckham's in his 50s.
01:35I think Liam is oldest.
01:38Other than Beckham.
01:39Okay.
01:40I just don't know who to go for for the youngest.
01:43I think Beyoncé.
01:45Beyoncé's around 40.
01:46Shall we start with Emily?
01:48Beyoncé, yeah.
01:50Then go Kate.
01:51Kate.
01:52Danny Dyer, then David Beckham.
01:55Then Liam got to go.
02:00Time to regroup.
02:02We've got to think again.
02:06Welcome to our manor.
02:09I'm Danny Dyer,
02:10and this is my partner in crime,
02:11Emily Atak.
02:14What?
02:16What?
02:17F***ing Libby.
02:18We've invited 10 complete strangers
02:21from all walks of life here
02:23to take part in a brand new brain-twisting game.
02:28I went to Oxford University.
02:29I am from Essex.
02:30I'm a serial entrepreneur.
02:31I do regular quizzes,
02:33and that's my forte.
02:37Every day,
02:37they'll take on a big-money quiz
02:39for a chance to build a prize pot
02:41worth up to £100,000.
02:44What H is a form of poetry
02:46originating in Japan?
02:47Haiku.
02:48Correct.
02:49Come on!
02:50That's what we're talking about!
02:52Hotels in Hawaii,
02:53Sicily,
02:53and Thailand
02:54are the settings
02:55for which television series?
02:56Estee,
02:56Exotic,
02:57Marigold,
02:57Hody,
02:57USO,
02:58McLaren,
02:58China.
03:00But here's the twist.
03:01The quiz is played in secret.
03:03No one knows
03:04how any of their rivals
03:06have scored.
03:07I got 14.
03:09It does seem a little suspicious.
03:11But the rest of the challenges...
03:13What the...
03:15Will be played out
03:17in plain sight.
03:18What?
03:19What?
03:19I am picking up
03:20such bull****** vibes
03:22from Billy.
03:23Hope you miss it, Bill.
03:24Pull!
03:26Release the balls!
03:29And with just their own judgment
03:31to rely on...
03:32Omar.
03:33I don't think he's clever.
03:35Spotting the weakest player...
03:38Ow!
03:39There's no Ian conniving, love,
03:41but there is one in weakest.
03:43In fact, there's two.
03:44It's the biggest test of all.
03:46Bloody f***ing game.
03:49Because at the end of each day,
03:51they must correctly identify
03:53an evict
03:53who has contributed
03:55the least to the prize pot.
03:56It's time for the valuation.
03:58Or risk losing the cash.
04:00I contributed
04:012,400 pounds.
04:04I contributed
04:051,800 pounds
04:06to the pot.
04:071,800 pounds
04:08to the pot.
04:09I wouldn't say
04:10I like telling lies,
04:11but it needs be,
04:13needs be.
04:1550% of the people
04:16around this table
04:17have manipulated
04:18their figure.
04:19That's crazy.
04:20Do you just have to be honest?
04:21There's too many people lying.
04:23Why are you answering?
04:24That's enough of that.
04:25To win this game,
04:26it's not about
04:27how smart you are.
04:29It's about how smart
04:30your rivals
04:31think you are.
04:32I can reveal
04:33that you are not
04:34the worst player here.
04:37What?
04:39You ready?
04:40Yeah.
04:40Let's go.
04:41So can a blagger
04:42with a plan
04:43be a genius
04:44without one?
04:45Let the bluffing begin.
04:52Okay.
04:53We're in a little bit
04:54of a pickle here,
04:54aren't we?
04:55She looks like she might know.
04:56I'm not too much heart.
04:58My name's Melissa.
05:00I went to Oxford University
05:01to read philosophy,
05:03politics and economics.
05:05When I was 12,
05:06I joined Mensa
05:07with an IQ of 178,
05:09which is higher than Einstein.
05:10Hi.
05:11Melissa.
05:12Melissa, nice to meet you.
05:13Hello there.
05:14Emily Tax was in
05:15the in-betweeners,
05:16wasn't she?
05:16She was super young there.
05:17What's her name?
05:18Charlotte.
05:18Tits, exactly.
05:20Sorry.
05:22I know Liam Gallagher
05:23by name.
05:24I love music.
05:25I hold a rock festival
05:26in my back garden
05:28in Norfolk.
05:29Capacity up to 10,000 people.
05:31I really enjoy modern life
05:33and keep on rocking
05:34in the free world.
05:36I think we swap Kate
05:37and Beyonce.
05:39Somebody else.
05:40Another human.
05:42Go for it.
05:43Emily, Kate,
05:45Beyonce.
05:46Dyer, Beckham, Gallagher.
05:51Yeah.
05:52Okay.
05:53Teamwork.
05:54That's really good.
05:55Let's go.
05:56We didn't need that person.
05:58I can't run.
06:00I'll walk swiftly.
06:02That was really cool.
06:03Well done.
06:07Oh dear.
06:08That's not good.
06:15Good health.
06:16Cheers.
06:18Lovely to meet you.
06:19I'm immediately trying
06:20to figure out who's smart.
06:22I don't want to be judged
06:23as a young,
06:24stupid 20-year-old.
06:30How old do you think
06:31Beyonce is?
06:32About 45, I think.
06:33Yeah, I could see that.
06:35We've got another person coming.
06:37My name's Omar.
06:39I run businesses.
06:39I own a financial brokerage.
06:42Hello.
06:42Omar, nice to meet you.
06:43Harry.
06:44Jackie.
06:44Nice to meet you, Jackie.
06:45Hi, I'm Sonia.
06:46Nice to meet you.
06:47There's people
06:48that are much smarter than me
06:49and they work for me.
06:50So what does that tell you?
06:52What can we agree
06:53is the oldest?
06:54Beyonce.
06:56I think Beyonce
06:57had a baby
06:58when she was in her 50s.
07:02Come on, you lot.
07:03I had Liam Gallagher
07:05as the oldest.
07:06We haven't done
07:07Beyonce as the oldest yet.
07:08Let's try it.
07:10Jackie thought
07:11that Beyonce was over 50.
07:13That's where we got stuck.
07:14Liam Gallagher,
07:16David Beckham,
07:17Beyonce.
07:18Oh, dear.
07:20I definitely
07:21self-describe as a geek.
07:22In my head,
07:23I'm nerding out
07:24about all the possible
07:25combinations and permutations
07:26to get through the gate.
07:27And the last thing we want
07:28is to be pressing buttons
07:29at random.
07:30I'd go younger than 48.
07:32I would agree.
07:32Go for it.
07:33Emily.
07:33Emily.
07:34Kate Middleton.
07:35Beyonce.
07:35Beyonce.
07:37Danny Dyer.
07:38David Beckham.
07:39Liam Gallagher.
07:40Hooray!
07:42Thank you very much.
07:44First impression of Jackie,
07:46not really too sure
07:47if she belongs here.
07:48The first thing I'm Googling
07:49is how old Beyonce is.
07:51Seemed like she was
07:51just a bit of a pub quizzer.
07:59Oh, this is too cool.
08:02I'm so excited
08:03to meet colleagues
08:04and competitors.
08:06My first impression
08:07of dear Melissa
08:08is she looks
08:09very prim and proper,
08:11potentially a kind
08:11of vicar's daughter.
08:14Beautiful architecture.
08:15This now gets us
08:16into the more
08:17domestic quarters.
08:18Yes, of course.
08:19John is posh.
08:21He seems smart.
08:22Walking around the house,
08:23he knows a lot
08:23of historical facts.
08:24There would have been
08:25a bell in every room.
08:27Someone would have
08:27come running up.
08:28We have to see how
08:29well he knows
08:29everything else.
08:30Hello, hello.
08:31Hello.
08:32Hi.
08:34Harry.
08:35Come on, Harry.
08:36Come on.
08:36Come on.
08:37Great to meet you.
08:37Right.
08:38Oh, my God.
08:39We're going to be here
08:40all day.
08:40Emily, Kate, Beyonce.
08:42Beyonce, Danny, David,
08:44Liam.
08:45Yes!
08:46Finally!
08:48They've done it.
08:49What's your name,
08:50by the way?
08:50Oh, Parissa.
08:51Parissa.
08:52I'm Billy.
08:53Nice to meet you.
08:54Billy, Billy.
08:54Yeah.
08:55First impression,
08:56I'm thinking,
08:56Billy's going to be
08:57one of the loud ones.
08:58I'm loving this gap.
09:00You can't wear a loud shirt
09:01and not be loud.
09:02I like yours.
09:03It's a giving Barbie.
09:04Better than Barbie.
09:05Oh, my God, yes.
09:06I think Parissa
09:07is very bold
09:08to present herself
09:09in a marshmallow-y
09:11pink dress.
09:12Hi.
09:13Nice to meet you.
09:14Yeah, you look cool.
09:15Oh, thank you.
09:22Right, Em,
09:23we've had a chance
09:24to gather some
09:24first impressions.
09:26Let's turn it up a notch.
09:28You ready?
09:29Yeah.
09:29You?
09:30Of course I am.
09:31Let's go.
09:42Guys, guys, guys, guys, guys.
09:46Oh, look at him.
09:51Hello.
09:54Welcome to our manor.
09:57It's like a national trust building
09:59just without a trust.
10:02Now, we've invited you
10:03here to play a game
10:04worth up to 100 grand.
10:09I want the money.
10:10Yeah.
10:11In my head,
10:12I've already spent it,
10:13so, like,
10:14I kind of need to win it.
10:16In this competition,
10:18you're going to need
10:18to figure out
10:19how smart your rivals are.
10:22You've had a chance
10:23to eyeball each other.
10:25So, right now,
10:27based on your first impression,
10:30who is the smartest person here?
10:36You must put yourselves
10:37in order of smartest
10:39to least smart.
10:43The smartest person this end.
10:46The least smart this end.
10:50Off you go.
10:52I am smart.
10:54We're all smart.
10:54I'm not a genius.
10:56Okay, okay, we've got a really good general knowledge.
10:58I've had a lot of life experience.
11:00Billy is a sort of children's entertainer type.
11:03I suppose you wouldn't naturally think of him
11:04as somebody with a lot of intelligence.
11:07I know what I'm capable of.
11:09I know what my life skills are.
11:11The whole life skills thing
11:12puts us at a disadvantage.
11:14It's quite obvious,
11:16Ella and I are the youngest here.
11:17I actually think
11:18I'm already kind of being underestimated.
11:20When it comes down to certain topics,
11:22we'll be the smartest.
11:23Right, exactly.
11:25I think the younger people
11:26are definitely in the firing line.
11:28You just have less knowledge
11:29when you're 20 than when you're 50.
11:30We don't know anything about each other.
11:32There was a really interesting study
11:33which found that height
11:34is correlated with IQ.
11:36Well, I'm screwed, Ben.
11:39Yeah, I think the whole...
11:41I think the height correlating to IQ is bold.
11:43One thing.
11:44I feel like we need to start
11:45some voting system or something.
11:47This sweet little bowl of fluff
11:49starts ordering people around.
11:51Parisa wouldn't boss me around.
11:52She'd have got put in her place
11:53if she'd have tried with me.
11:55John.
11:56Okay, I go with John.
11:57I go for John too.
11:58For what, the smartest?
11:59Yeah.
12:01People judge you with a Northern accent.
12:03Being older,
12:04having bingo wings.
12:05They think that people
12:07with better accents
12:08have gone to better schools.
12:10But the university of life
12:11should not be overlooked.
12:14Who's the least smart, do you think?
12:17Being terrible and mistake
12:18if you put me at the bottom,
12:19I can tell you that.
12:21I'm not necessarily the smartest,
12:22but I'm definitely not the thickest.
12:26I think the other players
12:28underestimate me
12:29because of all of the tattoos,
12:31the loud shirt,
12:32you think Yorkshireman,
12:34but there was no way
12:35I was putting myself
12:36right at that bottom end.
12:39I feel like I'm as clever as Harry,
12:41so I'm going to stand here.
12:43This is really revealing,
12:44I think,
12:45the people who don't care
12:46to be called
12:47the least smart in the room
12:48are probably the smartest.
12:50Yeah.
12:52And we've got to get in line with this.
12:55Harry's gone to be the thickest
12:56all of a sudden.
13:00I'm very happy
13:01to just try and prove myself.
13:03You've just done where you are.
13:04I'm just going to stand here.
13:05Move on.
13:06You move on.
13:17John,
13:18you're the smartest, apparently.
13:20So before we lock this in,
13:22does anyone want to swap positions?
13:27I should definitely be further up here.
13:30Omar, how do you feel
13:31about where you are stood?
13:35People doubt me
13:36because they see a guy
13:38from a single-parent family home
13:39born on a council estate
13:41as somebody that will underachieve.
13:43I feel like I should be stood over there
13:45and you'll find that later
13:45when you know more about me.
13:47I've literally built
13:48multiple businesses
13:49to make my way six figures.
13:51If that doesn't require intelligence,
13:52then I don't know what does.
13:56Harry,
13:57the competition has barely begun
13:59and you've placed yourself
14:01at the bottom
14:01as the least intelligent.
14:03So you're going to need
14:04to prove yourself.
14:07Because during your stay,
14:08you'll be taking part
14:10in daily quizzes
14:11to build the prize pot
14:13up to £100,000.
14:16The better you collectively do,
14:18the more money
14:20one of you will win
14:21at the end.
14:22So you need to keep
14:24the strongest players in
14:25and eliminate the weakest.
14:30But there's a twist.
14:33Every quiz
14:34is played in secret.
14:36You won't know
14:37how each player has performed.
14:39you'll only have
14:40their word for it.
14:42Oh.
14:44In the valuation room,
14:45at the end of each day,
14:47if you fail to identify
14:49the player
14:49who has earned the least,
14:51the prize pot
14:52will be harmed.
14:56How you separate
14:58the higher flyers
14:59from the blatant liars
15:01is up to you.
15:04Harry,
15:04was it the right move
15:06declaring yourself
15:07the least smart?
15:08I think Harry
15:09thinks he's being
15:10quite clever
15:11by putting himself
15:12at the end.
15:13But in this game,
15:15you can't afford
15:15to be seen
15:16to be the least smart.
15:19It's time
15:20to take things seriously.
15:22There is
15:22a hundred grand
15:24at stake.
15:25Don't let them
15:26take you for a fall.
15:34That was brutal.
15:35Yeah, it was brutal.
15:37I'm like,
15:38I don't care
15:39whether people think
15:39I'm the smartest person.
15:40And then I was like,
15:41oh no,
15:41this might be a mistake.
15:43This might be
15:43no good deed
15:44goes unpunished.
15:45Billy,
15:45please head
15:46to the quiz pod.
15:59Right,
16:00time for our first quiz.
16:02And the first lamb
16:03to the slaughter
16:03is Billy.
16:06Ooh.
16:09Now,
16:09let's see
16:10what he's really made of.
16:16Hello,
16:16Billy.
16:17Welcome
16:18to my secret quiz pod.
16:22Every question
16:23you answer correctly
16:24will add 200 pounds
16:26to the group prize pot.
16:28Time to put your money
16:30where your mouth is.
16:31The pressure is on.
16:34The quiz will begin
16:35in three,
16:36two,
16:36one.
16:45Today's quiz
16:46is a test
16:47of general knowledge.
16:50Three,
16:51two,
16:51one.
16:51Go.
16:52According to legend,
16:53the capital city
16:54of Greece

19:03but how's he going to play this?
19:05You can now head back
19:06to your fellow players.
19:08What you choose to say
19:09or not say
19:09about your score
19:10is up to you.
19:12But everything else
19:13that happens in QuizPod
19:14stays in QuizPod.
19:26I think I did all right,
19:27but I know I could do better.
19:29They're going to ask me
19:30how did it go.
19:32I am going to embellish.
19:35Hey!
19:36Hello!
19:39How did that go for you?
19:40I got 14.
19:432,800.
19:45Well done.
19:45Nice.
19:47Because it's two minutes.
19:48It's not a long time.
19:51Billy seems
19:53weirdly confident.
19:54I love a good quiz.
19:56It's very early days
19:57for me to be doubting him,
19:58but it does seem
20:00a little suspicious.
20:07Would you say, like,
20:08you are, like, school smart?
20:10Like...
20:10The thing is,
20:11it depends what you define
20:12as smart.
20:13I know, that's the same.
20:15Omar, please head
20:16to the QuizPod.
20:19Going into the first quiz,
20:20I've got to be honest with you.

20:31to look like the best,
20:32so I've got to demonstrate
20:33and the proof is in a pudding.
20:36Oh, my God.
20:41John, if you could, uh,
20:47take a seat for me.
20:48I'd like to see your face,
20:49not your crotch.
20:50Sit yourself down, John.
20:52There you go, mate.
20:53This is gonna be
20:54absolutely no good for me.
20:55Welcome to my
20:57Secret QuizPod.
20:58Let's get to it.
21:00Putting myself
21:01as the least smart
21:01in the room
21:02maybe puts a target
21:03on my back
21:04and so I've got to get
21:05as much as possible
21:06because I would really
21:07like not to go home.
21:08Let's see how they get on, eh?
21:11Three,

21:31that premiered in 2021?
21:33No idea.
21:34I need an answer,
21:35I'm afraid.
21:36Benidorm.
21:37Panorama.
21:39White Lotus.
21:40Correct.
21:41Published in 1925,
21:42the short story

21:46on a search for honey.

21:52Winnie the Pooh.
21:54Correct.
21:54Pooh Bear.
21:56That's why he knows he's posh.

22:02Correct.

22:11A bat.
22:12A rodum.
22:14Anteater.
22:15Arthog.
22:15Much Ado About Nothing.
22:18True.
22:19Oh, yeah.
22:21Singlish is an English-based
22:22Creole language
22:23originating in what
22:24Asian country?
22:25Singapore.
22:26Correct.
22:28Uh...
22:28Egypt?
22:30Singapore.
22:33The quiz is now over.
22:35Dear, dear.
22:36That was fast.
22:38Fuck!
22:40Did I say Benidorm?
22:41Oh, no.
22:41In today's quiz,
22:43you answered 12 questions correctly.
22:45£2,400 has been added to the prize pot.
22:48I'll take that.
22:49You answered 11 correctly.
22:52You answered 8 correctly.
22:537 questions correctly.
22:556 questions correctly.
22:575 questions correctly.
23:00Omar, you answered 4 questions correctly.
23:03£800 has been added to the prize pot.
23:07OK.
23:09That was appalling.
23:12What you choose to say or not say about your score is up to you.
23:15But everything else that happens in the pod...
23:18Stays in the pod.
23:19..stays in the pod.
23:20From here, you need to figure out who contributed the least.
23:24And if you did badly, do you have the nerve to walk back into that group and lie to their
23:29faces?
23:29I'll say I got 10, and that's two runs.
23:32This isn't a little bit embarrassing.
23:34This is massively embarrassing.
23:36Do you really think I'm going to go back in there and say,
23:38done well, guys, I've got four?
23:41Guess we're out of here.
23:43I am feeling super nervous.
23:44It wasn't my best, can't lie.
23:46I'm going to keep it vague.
23:47I'm just going to find out how everyone else did.
23:50I'm going to upplay the way that I've done,
23:52because there's multiple ways to play the game.
23:55Unfortunately, I'm going to have to play the game
23:57the way that I didn't want to play the game.
23:58But, you know, sometimes you've got to do things you don't want to do.
24:08How was it?
24:09Yeah, okay, not as bad as I thought.
24:11Good.
24:11I was pleasantly surprised by those questions.
24:13They were okay.
24:14So was I.
24:14Yeah.
24:15Yeah.
24:16I actually felt like I'd done really well.
24:17I enjoyed it.
24:21I must admit I exceeded my expectations.
24:25With every quiz is like that, I'm laughing.
24:29How was it?
24:30It was good.
24:30It was pretty scary, though.
24:31How do you think you're doing?
24:32I got ten.
24:33Okay.
24:36Yeah.
24:37I will not be telling the truth.
24:38I am playing the people game more than the academic game.
24:43So, yeah.
24:44I wouldn't say I like telling lies, but if needs be, needs be.
24:50Ten is actually really good.
24:52There must be some money going in that part now.
24:55Every time it was going green, I was like, yes, yes, money.
24:59This is not going anywhere.
25:00This is our little truth circle.
25:02I feel like Billy could be upplaying his intelligence.
25:06He was giving it all Billy big bollocks.
25:09I'm so smart.
25:10I would vote Omar or Billy.
25:13Yeah.
25:14You also vote?
25:14Yeah.
25:15Yeah.
25:20I got £2,200.
25:23It's 11 questions.
25:24Well done.
25:25I'm not the best liar anyway, but I think honesty is the way to get through this competition.
25:30And I straight away revealed my number.
25:32I'm pretty pleased.
25:33I think it was pretty good.
25:35Do you have a favourite general knowledge topic?
25:3719th and 20th century history would be one.
25:40Yeah.
25:41I got six right.
25:42As an Englishman, I would try to play with a straight bat.
25:46I'm not in the business of deceit or trickery.
25:49But on the other hand, I feel no need to reveal figures until it is required to do so.
25:56I think we're hyping John up too much.
25:58Can somebody who dresses like that and talks like that not be smart?
26:05But Omar is a salesman.
26:06He gives that kind of sketchy car salesman vibe.
26:11Wait, do we know he's a car salesman?
26:13No, but we've just...
26:14He gives a vibe.
26:18Omar's three-piece suit, the slicked-back hair, I think it's a cover-up for the lack of intelligence.
26:25So if we don't vote for the weakest, the prize pot gets halved.
26:30So he's got to go.
26:41What do you make of Parisa and John?
26:44They need to do well in the challenge.
26:47And use it to hide how badly they did in the quiz.
26:51Omar didn't do very well.
26:53He's the one they need to catch.
26:55I wonder where this is going to go.
27:03Oh.
27:03Oh, I don't like the look of this.
27:07Oh, there's massage seats.
27:09I mean, I wouldn't mind a little deep tissue.
27:11First group challenge.
27:13I am desperate to show everyone that I am intelligent.
27:16There's no point doing well in the quiz if nobody believes you in the group.
27:21Welcome to our spa, where relaxation is cancelled.
27:26Yeah.
27:28Today is all about general knowledge.
27:31Well, nothing helps general knowledge like a good memory.
27:34And that is what we're testing here.
27:37In muscle memory.
27:40And there's no hiding here.
27:42As unlike the quiz, this challenge plays out in plain sight.
27:47You will be lying face down on these massage beds.
27:50But just inches below your heads will run a number of objects.
27:56You have one job.
27:57Remember all of them.
28:00Once the carousel stops, you'll be asked questions based on the order of objects that you've just seen.
28:07Now, everyone is watching.
28:11Use this opportunity to assess your rivals.
28:15Looking weak could put you at risk of elimination.
28:19And out of the running to win that £100,000.
28:24And there's a significant advantage for the winner of today's challenge.
28:29In the valuation later, your vote will count double.
28:37We all want to win £100,000.
28:40And I want that double vote in my sweaty little palms.
28:48Good luck.
28:51After putting myself at the bottom of the pile in the line-up, I've got everything to prove.
28:56I need to show that I have value.
28:59I'm really nervous because I need to prove myself after that not-so-good pod quiz.
29:05I do not want to be seen as the weakest.
29:08Bring in the masseuses!
29:10Oh, God.
29:11Mm-hmm.
29:13Okay, you bastards.
29:15I am a makeup influencer.
29:17But also I have two degrees, and one of them is a master of science in psychology.
29:21I think the smart individuals are the ones that are going to observe behaviour.
29:27That's my skill, and that's what I'm going to do today.
29:29Crank up the carousel.
29:35I don't like this.
29:39First up, we have rollerblades, a typewriter, a teddy bear, a toaster.
29:48God, that reminds me I need to clean my toaster.
29:50A ukulele, a canteen of cutlery, a pair of binoculars.
29:57Concentration, ladies and gentlemen, concentration.
30:00A camcorder, a porcelain dog, and finally, a disco ball.
30:07The carousel has ceased.
30:11Question one.
30:13What was the fifth item on the carousel?
30:17Was it A, the ukulele, B, a teddy bear, or C, binoculars?
30:26Stand behind the plinth you think was the fifth item.
30:31Go.
30:33My plan's to demonstrate that I'm not a follower, I'm a leader.
30:38Omar sort of led the pack here.
30:40Who wants to be a follower?
30:41Who wants to live a mundane life?
30:43I'd rather that on my sword.
30:45Interesting.
30:46The barista's gone to any bear.
30:47Adamant.
30:48Oh, John's having a mooch.
30:50Decision's made.
30:53The answer is...
30:56The ukulele, ladies and gentlemen.
30:59What's in there?
31:01I was very confident that I got it right, but I got it wrong.
31:05This is not how I wanted it to start.
31:08Question two.
31:10Out of these three items, which travelled first on the carousel?
31:15Go.
31:16Well, Bill, he was straight there, look.
31:18Giving it the big one.
31:19Harry's having a little mooch over to the typewriter.
31:22Oh, this is interesting.
31:24Harry, are you certain?
31:26I'm in my mind palace.
31:28I can visualise it, and I'm happy with it.
31:31Danny, have you got a mind palace?
31:32There's a dungeon in my mind palace.
31:35The correct answer is C, typewriter.
31:42I don't think memory is my forte, but basically, you go round your house, and in each room,
31:47you put these items, and you make them kind of crazy.
31:49So, the dog, at one point, was having a shower, and the weirder it is, the easier it is to
31:55stick in your mind.
31:56Things are going to crank up a gear.
31:58The carousel is going to be going faster.
32:01Whoa.
32:01And we've added a load more items, so get back on your beds, and chuck your nuts in them holes.
32:11It's tough out here.
32:13To be fair, I'm just going to keep following people again.
32:17Start the carousel!
32:19Oh, time's two speed!
32:33A couple of jugs.
32:37I used to put lemons down my top.
32:40It's like, I've got lemons.
32:42What a shame.
32:47The carousel is finished.
32:49What was the eleventh item on the carousel?
32:52Go!
32:53I don't remember seeing the binoculars.
32:59Hi, I'm going to go here.
33:02I hate to say it, but I feel like there are a few followers here.
33:05John and Ella.
33:07Also Jackie, I feel, was being a bit of a sheep.
33:09The correct answer is binoculars.
33:13Binoculars, yes!
33:14Oh, God.
33:14Drink, please.
33:15Interesting.
33:17Omar, if you got a question wrong, he keeps beating himself up a lot and not matching it.
33:22I'm not buying it.
33:24Which item from round one is missing gold?
33:28It is a lot easier to remember what's not there.
33:31The answer is rollerblades.
33:37All I'm going to say is that there are a lot of followers.
33:43Is that, like, got a little hint of jealousy to it?
33:46OK, just a lot of followers.
33:48I've never followed anybody in my life and I'm not going to start doing that.
33:51Period, Jackie.
33:53Tell them.
33:53It's absolutely annoying that she's suggesting that I'm a sheep, when really, it's her that's following everybody else.
34:02Final question.
34:04Out of these three items, which travelled first?
34:09Go on.
34:10On your way.
34:11I said you remembered it.
34:12Yeah.
34:15Finally.
34:16Thank you all so much.
34:19Get your knees scared where you got if you're second-guessing, then.
34:22I know what I need to do, don't worry.
34:26The correct answer is...
34:28Gnome.
34:29Yeah!
34:30You did that, don't you?
34:31Yeah.
34:33Lo and behold, when it came to the last one, Carissa followed the crowd.
34:38I'm fuming.
34:42Players, that is the end of the game.
34:45In last place, we have Carissa and Sonia.
34:55No one wants to be at the bottom.
34:57I did not want to be at the bottom.
34:59I'm panicking.
35:00And coming out on top, Ella, Harry and Melissa.
35:09During that challenge, I do feel like there was eyes on me.
35:11I'm just annoyed that I wasn't able to really separate myself from the pack,
35:15and now I am on edge.
35:17But there can only be one winner.
35:20So we move to a tiebreaker to decide who gets that double vote.
35:25Going into the first valuation, just having that extra little bit of power
35:29would probably make you untouchable.
35:32Here's a chance to show that I'm not an idiot.
35:34I need to win.
35:37The big question.
35:39From the last round, what place number did the lemons travel on the carousel?
35:47I've made it into the tiebreaker.
35:50This is very good for my game plan, coming across as a mature, intelligent Ella.
35:55And I really want this double vote.
36:01Harry, please reveal your board.
36:10And it's a 13.
36:13And Ella?
36:16Also a 13.
36:17Ooh!
36:20The correct answer.
36:26The answer is 12, and the winner is Harry.
36:28Yay!
36:30Good job, Harry.
36:32Congratulations, Harry.
36:35I've won, which means that people no longer think I'm the stupidest,
36:39but it comes with this double vote, which does give me a big responsibility.
36:44Going off your truck, going to lock you.
36:46I do think Harry is clever, but I don't think he's as clever as you think he is.
36:51He does now have a double vote,
36:52and I am hoping that he doesn't have his eyes on me.
36:57Shut the door behind you.
36:59What's your phone in the bar?
37:03Is anyone shocked by anyone's performance?
37:07Just somebody's mini outburst.
37:10Parisa's comment did annoy me.
37:12Don't start biting back.
37:14Yeah.
37:15Parisa should be worried about the elimination.
37:18She came last in the challenge and called the rest of us all sheep.
37:22You stuck to your guts.
37:23I stuck to my guts.
37:24At least we stuck to our guts, right?
37:29I was quite impressed, actually.
37:30I feel like everyone done well in your failures.
37:33Yeah, I think they did.
37:33I feel like it would have been nice to have seen the quiz live,
37:35because I'll smash that.
37:43I'm not buying it.
37:45He bigs himself up too much.
37:47Yeah, he didn't get that when he's on it.
37:50We need to be certain who's put the least into that prize pot.
37:54If we fail, the money that we all worked so hard to build can be halved.
38:00This is harder than I thought it would be.
38:05The clock is ticking.
38:07Someone's time will soon be up.
38:10Now our players must evaluate just how smart they think their rivals actually are.
38:16And crucially, who's the weakest player?
38:23There's a lot at stake having the double vote.
38:25It is a lot of responsibility.
38:27So I'm going to have to be on the lookout to identify the weakest and vote them out.
38:32Because I do not want that prize pot to get smaller.
38:36I'm confident in my strategy.
38:39Bring it on.
38:43I'm shitting myself knowing I've only got 800.
38:45I am going to have to lie.
38:47All I care about is just staying in and not going home.
38:50No one wants to be the first out.
39:03It's time for the valuation.
39:07Cash has been earned.
39:09Puzzle solved.
39:11But now you need to root out the weakest player amongst you.
39:14Nine of you will still be in with a chance of winning £100,000.
39:20And one of you will be given the Spanish archer.
39:24Elbowed.
39:26Today, you have made first impressions.
39:29But now it's time to make some value judgments.
39:34In front of you is a card.
39:37On it is a reminder of the amount you individually earned in Quiz Pod.
39:42Now, one by one, we're going to ask you to take a peek at your card.
39:46But don't show anyone.
39:48Now, whether you choose to reveal the truth or not is up to you.
39:53Decide on your tactics because soon we will ask you to vote
39:57who you think contributed the least to the prize pot.
40:03Get it right and your prize pot is safe.
40:07However, if you fail to identify the correct player,
40:10the pot will be halved.
40:15Halve the readies.
40:17You've got to get it right.
40:23Starting with you, Harry.
40:25Look at your card.
40:27Make sure no one else can see what's on it.
40:30And tell the group what you contributed to the prize pot.
40:39I contributed £2,200.
40:45Sonia?
40:47I contributed £2,400 to the pot.
40:55Jackie?
40:59I contributed £2,400.
41:08Ella?
41:14I contributed £2,000 to the pot.
41:22Omar, could you please reveal what you contributed to the pot?
41:32I contributed £1,800 to the pot.
41:44I contributed £2,400 to the pot.
41:54Melissa?
41:56I contributed £2,400 to the pot.
42:08I contributed £2,200 to the pot.
42:17Kamal?
42:25I contributed £2,200.
42:30John, what did you put in the pot?
42:36I contributed £1,200.
42:46John coming in with the lowest declared score of £1,200.
42:52So, that's what you all claim to have individually earned.
42:56But do the numbers add up?
42:58The winnings you have just declared add up to...
43:04£21,600.
43:07I can reveal the total amount won in QuizPod is actually...
43:19£16,600.
43:21No way.
43:22Oh!
43:23That's a lot of lying.
43:25That's a lot of lying.
43:26I should have lied about my number.
43:27That's a way bigger discrepancy than I thought it'd be.
43:31Five grand difference.
43:35That is significant.
43:36Well, well, well.
43:38Looks like some of you, maybe all of you,
43:41are telling porcupines.
43:46So bad.
43:48Now, before you vote,
43:49we're going to give you one last chance
43:52to interrogate each other.
43:56I feel like the difference in number,
43:58I think we can all agree, is definitely shocking.
44:03I'm well astonished
44:04that there's so much lying going on.
44:06I'm baffled.
44:09I've come into this,
44:11tried to be honest and an open book,
44:13so it's kind of frustrating.
44:16If there was one person who added loads,
44:18I wish we could find them.
44:20Well, it's a mathematical certainty
44:22it's more than one person.
44:23Yeah.
44:24Unless somebody's really inflated,
44:26the law of averages is...
44:27Taking the piss and they got £800 or something.
44:28Yeah.
44:28You're talking maybe 50% or more
44:31of the people around this table
44:33have manipulated their figure.
44:37Who scored the highest?
44:39I did.
44:402.8 gram.
44:41Who were 2.8?
44:43Yeah.
44:45Why would I lie about getting such a high number?
44:49I know, but we're all going to say that, aren't we?
44:51Well, I would rather have...
44:53Of course.
44:53I'm not pointing fingers at you.
44:55I kind of wish I hadn't, yeah.
45:01Right now it's clear that there's lying happening somewhere.
45:05This is a conversation about who ultimately contributed the least, right?
45:09Well, right now the least is 1,200, respectfully, right?
45:12Yes.
45:13So we're starting with a benchmark, a floor of six questions.
45:18John, you know that's not been coming at you, John.
45:20You know that.
45:22I'm at the bottom of the pile.
45:23There's no real reason why I'd want to tell porky pies on that.
45:27I am where I am and I'm pretty satisfied I had a good day.
45:32Aw.
45:32Same anyway.
45:34Oh, no.
45:34I really appreciate you because I can tell that you're being honest about your number.
45:38Yeah.
45:38Like, we don't know if anyone's got lower.
45:40Do we reward that honesty?
45:45It all depends if we have any suspicions if anyone's going lower.
45:51Let's assume John is telling the truth.
45:54In which case, do we think that Omar added on more than four?
46:03What did you say you have?
46:04I got the whole number.
46:051,800.
46:0618.
46:07So why would I lie when all of you have gone before me?
46:12And Harry, why did you target Omar?
46:14Oh, because he's the next one up.
46:19I'm going with my opinion anyway.
46:21I'm actually going with who I feel like is the least smartest, irrespective of these numbers.
46:26Irrespective of the quiz.
46:27The reality is the numbers are what's going to hold up or ruin the pot.
46:33In which case, our reported numbers are the best thing to go on.
46:37We don't vote just on the pot though.
46:40We're voting on the whole day.
46:42And what we witnessed today.
46:45It all comes into it.
46:46100%.
46:47Even conversations we've all had with each other, everything needs to be in consideration.
46:50Yeah, I completely agree.
46:51I think who is, like, leading and who's not.
46:57OK, I'm going to do it.
46:58Parisa, it really pissed me off that when you were losing, you attacked us all and compared us all to
47:05sheep.
47:09And then proceeded for the rest of the game to follow the majority.
47:15Billy, Billy, look, if you think I did that, like, that is quite comedic and laughable.
47:21You definitely made a comment and called us out.
47:23I didn't say sheep.
47:24She said some people are following.
47:26You had a bit of a hissy fit about people following.
47:30And then at the end, you then went where the majority went.
47:34Jackie, I just said, oh, I feel there's a few followers and you bit at me straight away.
47:38Because I've never followed anybody.
47:41Ever.
47:42If you think that, it's your opinion.
47:44We can't risk losing half of the money right now.
47:47We do just have to be honest.
47:49With, with.
47:50Why are you answering?
47:51No, why are you answering?
47:52Well, because I feel like you're all ganging up on us.
47:54Well, that's enough of that.
47:56Brief.
47:59Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to put names to your opinions.
48:06Which player do you think has contributed the least value to the prize pot?
48:11Get it wrong and today's £16,600 prize pot will be halved.
48:16And remember, Harry's vote will count as double.
48:27So, your decisions are made.
48:29Time to reveal them to the group.
48:34Let's start with Kamal.
48:36I know people are approaching the vote with two different schools of thought.
48:40But I'm trying to focus on the money in front of us and the prize pot.
48:44So, the person I'm voting for is...
48:53John.
48:55I'm so sorry, man.
48:59Marissa.
49:02The person I am voting today is...
49:07It's John. I'm so sorry.
49:15John, you're next.
49:17Well, I think there is an element of pay inflation, perhaps, around the table, to put it mildly.
49:25The person that I will choose is...
49:31Marissa.
49:36Melissa.
49:37The reason I'm voting for this person is, mathematically, we can't possibly all have done as badly as him.
49:44And I wish he had lied because, clearly, almost everyone else around this table has.
49:49The person I believe contributed least is John.
49:55Sorry.
49:57So, that is three votes for John and one vote for Parissa.
50:03Billy.
50:04Based upon what I saw in today's challenge, the person I'm voting for is...
50:12Parissa.
50:14Obviously.
50:18Jackie.
50:19The person I'm voting for today is because I think they've come in here and fabricated a set of lies
50:26around them.
50:27They're trying to play the game, but it's unsustainable.
50:31And that person is...
50:35Parissa.
50:40So, that's three votes for Parissa, and three votes for John.
50:45Omar.
50:48The person that I feel like contributed the least, unfortunately, is...
50:55It's going to be John. Sorry, man.
50:59Fucking sorry.
51:02Ella.
51:03Who did you vote for?
51:06It may be a shock to this person, but I am sorry.
51:12Player I have voted for is...
51:17Parissa.
51:21I am a bit shocked with Ella.
51:23I thought we would look after each other in the valuation room.
51:26She's definitely here to play a game.
51:30We're at four all.
51:32Sonia, who gets your vote?
51:37The person I have voted is...
51:43Parissa.
51:47That's five votes for Parissa, and four votes for John.
51:52So, Harry, your double vote decides it.
51:57If people really just vote on who they suspect has put in the least amount of money, then I'm in
52:04trouble.
52:04I'm not inflating my numbers, telling porky pies, but only time will tell if this strategy works.
52:12I am so annoyed that there's clearly been so much lying.
52:21Genuinely and with complete regret.
52:25The person I'm voting out is...
52:37Parissa, that's me.
52:45Parissa, you have been voted the player who has contributed the least value.
52:52How do you feel about being judged the worst player here?
52:57I think this random target that I just got definitely kind of impacted it.
53:03You said you'd won £2,200.
53:06Can you please now reveal if that was true?
53:15I contributed £1,000.
53:17Oh, wow!
53:20Yes!
53:21You had me going, you know, I thought you had that number.
53:23See you were lying.
53:25Yeah.
53:25I was acting.
53:26I wish I got that interest on my bank account.
53:29Billy, I don't really want to converse with you.
53:32Fair enough.
53:33I don't feel like I need to give you that time anymore.
53:35Now, before you go, let's find out the truth.
53:40Have you found the actual weakest player?
53:44I can reveal...
53:47Parissa, you are not the worst player here.
53:53What?
53:54You're kidding.
53:58That's crazy.
54:01Now it's getting interesting, huh?
54:03Parissa?
54:04That decision has just cost you...
54:10£8,300.
54:13Parissa, please leave the valuation room.
54:16Deuces.
54:17See you later, Parissa.
54:19Watch out who the big player is!
54:21Cause it ain't me!
54:27Oh dear, oh dear.
54:30At least one of you did worse than Parissa.
54:33But managed to pull the wall over all your eyes.
54:38Have a good look around.
54:40Who's been lying to you?
54:43I managed to get away with it.
54:45At the moment, I would definitely say I'm flying under the radar.
54:48I am feeling absolutely fantastic.
54:58Release the balls!
55:00What E can denote a moment of sudden insight or understanding?
55:05Uh...
55:05Epiphany.
55:06Come on!
55:08The stakes are very, very high now.
55:12What the fuck?
55:13Who is a dominatrix?
55:16Oh!
55:18You answered one question correctly.
55:21It was easier than yesterday.
55:23100%.
55:24I'm leaning towards Omar.
55:26I think he scored the worst in the pods.
55:29Yeah.
55:29Ella has been driving a campaign against you.
55:31If you want to start getting personal, then the gloves are off.
55:34So let's go, my friends.
55:48Alright!
55:54Embody tips for life?
55:55This has been brought in perspective.
55:55Okay, I'm going to treat you one problem.
55:57What are we looking for?
55:58You can definitely take off that editor.
55:59The second time this time.
56:00Let's have to go.
