00:00Out with the greatest quiz minds on the planet, the Chasers, to win £100,000.
00:09Five teams fought it out in Lisbon.
00:11That way, we've got to get to this finish line.
00:14And despite having Ashwin and Nikita hot on their heels...
00:16Oh, there they are.
00:17David and Stephen claimed their second victory in a row.
00:21You're flying.
00:22We did all right there, didn't we?
00:23Yeah.
00:23For Matt and Keris, last place meant a clash with the Chasers.
00:27What northern city is home to the Etihad Stadium?
00:30Manchester.
00:31Correct.
00:32And an end to their adventure.
00:34You now have to leave us. I'm so sorry.
00:37The Chasers now moves to its fourth city, Paris.
00:42Renowned for its rich history, its global centre for the arts, fashion and fine food.
00:49It may be known to many as the city of love, but for one team, a date with the Vixen
00:54and the Beast could end in heartbreak.
00:56And a ticket home.
00:59Oh, tablet.
01:01As victors in Lisbon, father and son David and Stephen once again enjoy the power of the winner's advantage.
01:08David and Stephen.
01:10You get to decide the all-important order in which teams will answer the questions in round one.
01:16God.
01:16Obviously, you'll go first, but who will you choose to be next?
01:20In second, Nicola and Madeline.
01:22Oh, thank God.
01:23Third, Amy and Katie.
01:25Then fourth, we've got Ashwin and Nikita.
01:27Just feels like they've become an increasing competition, a threat to us, if you like.
01:32Let's go.
01:33Having to play catch-up now.
01:43The chase around Paris is on.
01:46All the players have to do is get off the bus.
01:49Trial!
01:51Trial!
01:53Trial!
01:54Bonjour, players.
01:55Welcome aboard your Paris tour bus on round one.
01:59On your left is the Arc de Triomphe, where round two will begin.
02:04But the bus will now take a detour and head away from the impressive landmark.
02:09Your objective is simple.
02:11Each pair must answer two consecutive questions correctly
02:14to escape the bus and return to the monument.
02:18The longer you're on the bus, the further away from round two you'll be.
02:23And there's a twist.
02:25You will be answering questions individually.
02:30Separating us, that's cruelty.
02:32Oh, I'm so scared.
02:35Let's kick off with David.
02:38In what summer month is Bastille Day celebrated in France?
02:42July.
02:42Correct.
02:44Stephen, Claret is the name for red wine from what French region?
02:50Er, Bordeaux.
02:53Correct.
02:55Hold on, Matt.
02:56Congratulations. Please leave the bus
02:58and make your way back to the Arc de Triomphe.
03:02Let's eat.
03:03Great start to the day.
03:05Oh, I'm scared.
03:08Nicola, a croque monsieur is a sandwich made of cheese
03:12and what meat?
03:13Ham.
03:14Correct.
03:15Maddie, the name of what Dior fragrance means wild in French?
03:22I actually don't know.
03:25Er, wild.
03:29That is incorrect.
03:30The answer is Sauvage.
03:34You're now frozen out.
03:36Amy, what Paris terminus has a name that literally means North Station?
03:45Paris du Nord.
03:47That is incorrect.
03:49The answer is Gare du Nord.
03:52We're getting off the bus second.
03:55Ashwin.
03:56Luxembourg's Francois Faber was the first non-French winner of what cycling race?
04:02Tour de France.
04:03That is correct.
04:06Nikita.
04:07God.
04:07In what Liam Neeson film is his daughter kidnapped in Paris?
04:12Taken.
04:13Correct.
04:14Damn.
04:15Now make your way back to the Arc de Triomphe.
04:18So wanted us at the end, but we're second.
04:20Yes.
04:21David and Stephen, we're coming first in Paris and you're going back at the queue in the next city.
04:25Maddy, back to you.
04:27Which Frenchman links a Grand Slam tennis venue and an airport on Réunion Island?
04:33Charles de Gaulle.
04:34Incorrect.
04:36The answer is Roland Garros.
04:39Sorry.
04:41I want to know that.
04:42Katie, Clermeton is the French word for what season?
04:48Autumn.
04:49Incorrect.
04:50The answer is spring.
04:53Close, but no cigar.
04:55Nicola, how many letter C's feature in the logo for the fashion brand Chanel?
05:01Two.
05:02Correct.
05:03Maddy, if you answer the next question correctly, you can stop the bus.
05:09Cyrano de Bergerac was famed for having a very large what?
05:16I actually don't know.
05:18Er, nose.
05:21That is correct.
05:23Oh, my God.
05:24You're free to go.
05:25Yay!
05:27Well, a hump is what I've got.
05:30Good luck.
05:31Good luck.
05:32You've got this.
05:34Katie and Amy, if you don't want to be dropped even further from the Arc de Triomphe, you must answer
05:39these next two questions correctly.
05:42Katie, what word meaning regret is also the French word for street?
05:49Rue.
05:49Correct.
05:52Amy, it's all on you.
05:55What George Orwell novel was published as La Femme des Animaux?
06:00Oh, no.
06:02Come on, mate.
06:06This is painful.
06:08I need to push you for an answer.
06:09It's clearly obvious that I don't know any George Orwell other than 1984.
06:16Animal Farm.
06:20Correct.
06:21Get me off this bus.
06:23Oh.
06:25Last again.
06:27We've been here before.
06:28And we've risen the ranks, so hopefully we'll rise again.
06:32I really do not want to face those chasers.
06:35The chase across Paris is hotting up.
06:37Our pairs will now need to tackle three more rounds, answering questions, cracking clues and solving puzzles to reach me
06:44at the finish line.
06:46David and Stephen are in the lead, followed by the other three pairs as they race to the Arc de
06:51Triomphe and round two.
06:53So that's the Arc de Triomphe there.
06:55The one thing they all need to remember is that coming last means a quiz off with the chasers, which
07:01is never pretty.
07:02And the very real risk of an early flight home.
07:08Oh, have a look.
07:11Have a look.
07:12Nice.
07:12Listen very carefully.
07:14I should say this only once.
07:16For this round, you have two categories to pick from.
07:20Choose wisely.
07:22Food and drink or pop culture.
07:25I'm happy to go with pop culture.
07:27To access your pop culture questions.
07:29Get off the metro at Grand Boulevard station.
07:32And head to the Musée Grévin.
07:34Grand Boulevard station.
07:36Yeah.
07:36So we need to find a metro station, don't we?
07:38There's one matter.
07:39Well spotted.
07:40Food and drink or pop culture?
07:42Pop culture.
07:43Pop culture, I definitely know nothing about.
07:44Do you want to do food and drink?
07:45Okay, let's go.
07:46Food and drink.
07:47Food and drink.
07:49Head to Châtelet station, where you'll find Le Louchepin.
07:52A classic French restaurant with classic French food.
07:55So let's get the map out.
07:56We've not got time to be standing still on the escalator.
07:59Yeah, yeah, keep going.
08:00Food and drink.
08:01Lock it in.
08:03We need to go, like, cross and up.
08:05Get your eye peeled for a metro sign.
08:07I think food and drink won't be as easy as people think it is.
08:09Pop culture.
08:10Yeah?
08:10Yeah.
08:11Let's go.
08:13Two pairs are travelling to the waxworks at the Musée Gravain.
08:17For the two pairs heading to one of Paris' traditional brasseries,
08:21a food and drink round awaits.
08:24So we are there.
08:27Le Le Bouchemme is just two stops away from the Arc de Triomphe.
08:30Red line to Châtelet.
08:33Yeah.
08:34But Nikita is convinced she has found a better route.
08:36So we're going green to here, and then we're going up to Strasbourg.
08:41Here, and then purple to here.
08:44I suppose like we're going the wrong direction, then.
08:46We're going.
08:47Let's go.
08:48Come on.
08:48Just what we're doing here.
08:53Let's just...
08:53Should be along here on the right.
08:55Musée Gravain.
08:56Yeah, that's it.
08:57First to arrive at their destination...
08:59Roger.
09:00...David and Stephen.
09:01This is fancy.
09:07Charlie.
09:08Yeah, I've met him.
09:09He's not that at all.
09:11They're about to test their popular culture knowledge
09:13at one of Europe's oldest wax museums.
09:17I'm very flattered, Leo, but you're too old for me.
09:23Oh, tablet.
09:26Right, so...
09:27Welcome to the Musée Gravain.
09:29You must answer three questions, with the answers being one of these lifelike waxworks.
09:35OK.
09:35If you answer incorrectly, you will not be able to answer again for five minutes.
09:40Question A.
09:41See, I'm getting better at this French lark.
09:43Find the man who headlined Woodstock in 1969.
09:48There are about 15 possible answers in this music section.
09:52Good luck.
09:53I don't know.
09:54Let's look around.
09:55It's too early for Bowie, isn't it?
09:57Yeah, he wasn't famous enough then, I don't think.
09:59I think we've learned from experiencing not racing, not rushing to lock in too quickly.
10:03We've been discussing things a bit more.
10:05Too early for Adam John.
10:06Unlikely to be Pavarotti, I would say.
10:09It could be Elvis time-wise, but I don't see him being Woodstock.
10:12What about Jimi Hendrix?
10:13Yeah.
10:13Jimi Hendrix was definitely a Woodstock sort of vibe.
10:16This is sort of flower power, isn't it?
10:17Very much.
10:17It's the impression I get of Woodstock.
10:19Jimi Hendrix.
10:20Lock in.
10:22Correct.
10:23Well done.
10:24Nice.
10:25Cheers, Jimi.
10:28That's a good start, anyway.
10:29As David and Stephen head to question two, on the other side of Paris,
10:34Nicola and Maddy have leapt into second spot for the food and drink round.
10:39Oh, no.
10:40Can we get it out?
10:42Right.
10:43Welcome to Lelouch Ben, a classic French brasserie.
10:47Here you'll need to answer three multiple-choice questions correctly.
10:51Get one wrong, and you'll be frozen out of the game for five minutes.
10:55All right.
10:56But there's a shortcut.
10:58Wrong answers can be removed if you have the stomach for it.
11:03Hopefully no escargot, whatever they're called.
11:15So, which type of wine is usually made using the Charmette method?
11:22Champagne, Carver, Prosecco.
11:24Don't know what that is.
11:27Eat a snail or clove of garlic to remove a wrong option.
11:33Oh, lovely, some snails.
11:34And garlic.
11:35Oh.
11:37I love garlic, but not raw, and I am never, ever in my life going to try a snail.
11:42The thought of it makes me genuinely nauseous.
11:46I'm not confident that I know the answer to that.
11:48I have no idea.
11:49So, which one should we go for?
11:51Thing is, though, it's only a minute if we eat five minutes if we get it wrong.
11:54I don't want to be wrong.
11:56I'm going to eat a snail.
11:58You're actually...
11:59Yeah.
11:59Please don't be sick.
12:01And then I'm probably going to be sick.
12:01Oh, I don't like watching that.
12:07Ew.
12:10What?
12:13Oh, it was vile.
12:15Was it meaty?
12:16It was gritty.
12:21Right, so, it's not that one.
12:24While Nicola and Maddy struggle with French cuisine.
12:29At least they're at the restaurant.
12:30We messed up.
12:32We've just gone a really long way.
12:33From Arc de Triomphe, we would have gone straight there.
12:36Everyone else would have got hit directly.
12:38I'm not facing the chasers again, so, yeah, it's a lot of pressure now to catch up that time.
12:45So, which one should we go for?
12:46Champagne.
12:47Monsieur?
12:48Sorry.
12:49Incorrect.
12:50Oh, no.
12:52And with that five-minute penalty, Nicola and Maddy's ability to hold on to second place
12:58is rapidly disappearing from the menu.
13:00Oh, God.
13:01We have to eat more things.
13:07Music Reven.
13:08Ah, perfect.
13:09Oh, no.
13:10Our four pairs are battling it out for pole position in Paris.
13:14The street?
13:14No.
13:15Here comes to it.
13:16They do lock.
13:16Right into your soul.
13:17Finishing in last place means the dreaded quiz off against the chasers.
13:21That could send them out of the competition.
13:23Can I move you up?
13:25In round two at the Waxworks, David and Stephen are moving on to the second of their three questions.
13:30I could just wait here like this for the next team.
13:32Yeah, famous Cumbrian celebrity.
13:34Well, Katie and Amy are only just getting started.
13:37Bonjour.
13:38At the French Brasserie.
13:39Oh, I've got this repeating on me, that creature.
13:42Nicola and Maddy are still stuck on question one.
13:46Oh, God, you stink.
13:47Oh, cheers.
13:48Oh, cheers.
13:49But after getting lost on the Paris metro.
13:51Oh, there it is.
13:52Ashwin and Nikita are finally closing the gap.
13:55Bonjour.
13:57We saw Nicola and Maddy, which really stressed me out, because obviously they started after
14:01us, and I think they'd been here a while.
14:04I'm pretty sure they didn't see us, but I'm a little bit stressed now that we're probably
14:07in last position.
14:08Nikita and Ashwin are vegans.
14:10Snails are off the menu, replaced by raw onion and garlic, which are much easier to catch.
14:15Which type of wine is usually made using the sharp, matte method?
14:21For every wrong answer, the teams will incur a five-minute penalty, or they can eliminate
14:26a wrong answer by eating a French delicacy.
14:29Yuck.
14:30If we're not 100% sure, just eat something.
14:36Oh!
14:37It's burning my mouth.
14:39I don't know why you were straight for the garlic.
14:41I like garlic.
14:43Obviously not that much.
14:45Oh, my God.
14:45French garlic is another level to English garlic.
14:50But we need not to come last, so I'm hoping that we'd claw back a little bit of the time.
14:55They have opted for a bold strategy to swallow the rungals.
14:59That was stronger.
15:00I think it's cremeau.
15:03Incorrect.
15:04Really?
15:06I like Nicola and Maddy.
15:08So it's Prosecco.
15:10Rude.
15:12Come on, give us a good question.
15:13Question two.
15:14Find the man who discovered and managed the rock bands The Velvet Underground.
15:20Well, they were 60s and 70s.
15:22Yeah.
15:23Is it?
15:23Wait, it's Andy Warhol.
15:24Why do you think it's him?
15:25I must have been at a pub quiz or something.
15:27You know, when someone just clicks in your head.
15:28Okay.
15:29Yeah.
15:29Go for it.
15:30Yeah.
15:30Yeah.
15:31Correct.
15:32Oh, well done.
15:33I don't know what happened.
15:34No, no, well done.
15:35Stephen knows a lot of stuff and he often surprises me.
15:37He'll come up with something.
15:38Bloody hell, I never thought he would have got that.
15:41Cheers, Andy.
15:41It's great to see and I think he's over the moon with that one.
15:45But David and Stephen now have competition.
15:48The man who headlined Woodstock.
15:49I know what type of festival it is.
15:51Okay.
15:51It could be Mick Jagger, it could be Jimi Hendrix.
15:53Don't ask you, you decide, I don't know.
15:55We're locking in Jimi Hendrix.
15:58Correct.
15:59Well done.
16:01Let's go to the next one.
16:02Go, go, go.
16:03Katie and Amy are now hot in the heels of the race leaders.
16:06While at the Brasserie...
16:08We are locking in Prosecco.
16:10Correct.
16:11Yes.
16:12The teams are now neck and neck on question two.
16:15Which French dish is a seafood stew associated with Marseille?
16:20Boulabéz.
16:22That would be Boulabéz.
16:24Boulabéz.
16:24It's a fish dish.
16:26Perfect.
16:26Yes!
16:28Correct.
16:29Well done.
16:29Which dessert takes its name from the French word for lightning?
16:33Mille foie, croissant, chocquet.
16:37Creme brulee, eclair, macaroon.
16:40I don't think it's creme brulee, because obviously that means cream.
16:43Mille foie is a thousand, it's layers.
16:45For lightning, macaroon doesn't make sense.
16:48I think it's eclair.
16:50I thought eclair.
16:50Because eclair is French for lights.
16:52Shall we just go for it?
16:53Yeah.
16:54I was thinking eclair.
16:56Lock it in eclair.
16:58Correct.
17:00Yes!
17:01Perfect.
17:03Oh, thank goodness.
17:06Do you know who the Velvet Underground are?
17:09No.
17:11Obviously, it's a man.
17:12We deduce that.
17:14However, there's too many men.
17:17Too many men, too many men.
17:18I think Andy Warhol did more than just art.
17:21And he lived with Lou Reed, I think.
17:23What did Lou Reed do?
17:25He's a musician.
17:28I think we should go with him.
17:30Lock it in.
17:32Correct.
17:33And the lead singer of the Velvet Underground was indeed Lou Reed.
17:39You are joking.
17:41I studied Andy Warhol for my GCSE art.
17:43Why didn't you learn that he was managing a band?
17:46I'm just late to the party.
17:46You know what I'm like.
17:49On a roll here.
17:50Make it three out of three.
17:53Find the actor who played Robert Langdon in The Da Vinci Code.
17:57Tom Hanks.
17:58Okay.
17:58Straight in.
17:59Okay.
17:59No messing.
18:00Straight in.
18:01It is him, isn't it?
18:03Shall we find out?
18:04That answer is correct.
18:07Yes.
18:08Correct.
18:08Yeah, that's right.
18:09Brilliant.
18:10Now, pick his pocket for a cryptic clue to take you to round three.
18:15Oh.
18:17Gustave E.
18:191832, 1923.
18:20I think there's something on the back.
18:21It's excellent work.
18:22I'm impressed.
18:23Figure out who this is.
18:24Find his masterpiece.
18:25Exit by the river and look for a book stand.
18:28Find his masterpiece makes it sound like it's an artist.
18:31So he died in 1923.
18:33So Gustave E.
18:35Gustave Eiffel.
18:38And his masterpiece is The Eiffel Tower.
18:40It was built in 1889.
18:42Bits in.
18:43Okay.
18:43Got to look for a book stand by The Eiffel Tower.
18:45Yeah.
18:45Let's go.
18:49Thanks, Tom Hanks.
18:51While David and Stephen head off to round three.
18:53They're impressed, aren't they?
18:55Yeah.
18:55They're well impressed.
18:56Thanks, guys.
18:57At the restaurant, both teams are also digesting their cryptic clue.
19:03Gustave E.
19:04Looks like a writer.
19:05Yeah, he's got to be a writer, really.
19:07Get the map out.
19:08Library or museum, theatre and gallery, I think.
19:12Excellent work.
19:13I'm impressed.
19:15Impressed.
19:15Impressionist.
19:16Impressed.
19:16Look at every word.
19:17Impressionist.
19:18Figure out who this is.
19:20Find his masterpiece.
19:21Masterpiece.
19:22An impressionist masterpiece.
19:24Must be the Louvre.
19:25Yeah.
19:27Musi, Gustav Moreau.
19:28It's got to be him.
19:29But why E?
19:30It's got to be that.
19:31It would say Gustav M, though, wouldn't it?
19:33Let's go.
19:34Hang on.
19:34Before you lock in, let's read every word.
19:37Dad, doesn't matter.
19:38We're going to the Louvre.
19:41Lock in the Louvre.
19:43Take a step back.
19:44Let's think about this.
19:45What, Dad?
19:46It's a masterpiece impressionist.
19:48What else is it going to be?
19:49What is the other option?
19:51I'm not saying it's not that, Nick.
19:52So, let's lock in and then let's discuss when we get to the Louvre.
19:56We're just wasting time now.
19:58I'm not wasting.
19:58OK, stop that.
19:59Because...
20:00I think there's thinking and then there's overthinking.
20:02We need to get a good middle ground.
20:04Where other masterpieces are hung in Paris?
20:07Hang on.
20:11I know this one.
20:12Who is it then?
20:13Tom Hanks.
20:14Meanwhile, back at the famous Paris Waxworks...
20:16Correct.
20:18Katie and Amy are the last to tackle the cryptic clue.
20:22Gustav E.
20:23Who do we think he is?
20:24I think he may be a scientist or, like, a composer.
20:27A masterpiece.
20:28Could be an inventor.
20:31He didn't invent the Eiffel Tower, did he?
20:34Bingo.
20:34That's why they've not put the surname one.
20:36Exactly.
20:37Let's go.
20:38Go, go, go, go, go.
20:39Wait a minute.
20:40Hold on.
20:45We really don't have time for this.
20:47Let's go.
20:47Put the hat back.
20:49We get on in small doses, usually.
20:52Yeah.
20:52We tolerate each other, um, if we have to.
20:55Back to the metro.
20:56Left.
20:57But we've worked so hard and so well together.
20:59Best of friends might be a bit of a push, but we're good teammates.
21:03We're competitive, so I don't think that there's any reason why we can't win this.
21:09The race to round three has begun.
21:11Eiffel Tower.
21:12Yellow line.
21:13With Katie and Amy and David and Stephen aiming for an Eiffel of the Eiffel.
21:18You just have to turn left.
21:19Left.
21:20And Ashwin and Nikita nipping to the Louvre.
21:23Nicola and Maddy, however, are still completely stuck at the brasserie.
21:27Gustave.
21:28Gustave.
21:29Gustave.
21:29I don't know.
21:33Wow.
21:34It wouldn't be hell that tight.
21:35That is massive.
21:36It's a lot bigger than I thought.
21:37Standing proud at 330 metres, it's Paris' most recognisable landmark, the Eiffel Tower.
21:45Built in 1889, it took two years, two months and five days to erect.
21:49People at the time said watching them bolt it together was riveting.
21:53Hopefully our pairs won't take that long to get through round three.
21:58Merci.
21:59Au revoir.
22:00Au revoir.
22:03So we've got the box.
22:05Yeah.
22:05And we need to padlock.
22:06We need to get five numbers from these three clues to open this.
22:09The answer to each of the three questions is a number.
22:12Pop it into the padlock and hey presto, the box opens, revealing a clue to the next destination.
22:18How can you govern a country which has blank varieties of cheese, Charles de Gaulle?
22:22Erm.
22:24Oh God.
22:27Okay.
22:28Don't know that one.
22:28However, if they don't have a scooby, then it's a time-consuming dash to the location to search for the
22:34answer.
22:35So we need to go to the Museum du Fromage.
22:37The second one is the central point on the floor outside of the Notre Dame from which all road distances
22:41in France are measured.
22:45Yeah, I've no idea about that either.
22:47So we're going to, yeah, we'll have to go there as well.
22:49And then the third one is the Arrondissement where the Louvre is located.
22:53Right, okay.
22:54What does that mean?
22:55I'm pretty sure it's like a district, but I don't know what the Arrondissement is.
22:58We don't know any of these, do we?
23:01We had a really good run earlier today, but we've hit a bit of a stumbling block here.
23:05Okay, these are quite difficult questions.
23:07Yeah.
23:07I think we'll probably go to the Louvre first.
23:09We're concerned about taking all that time to go to all three places.
23:12So let's go.
23:13We could be in a position where somebody knew all three and waltzed through it and they sailed past us.
23:17So for David and Stephen, it's a trip across Paris to all three locations to search for the hidden numerical
23:24clues to unlock the padlock.
23:26How do you say book in French?
23:27Livre?
23:28Oh, I was going to say le book.
23:29But there are shortcuts for the eagle-eyed.
23:33Arrondissement where the Louvre is located, it's obviously out of the Louvre.
23:36So we are here, yeah?
23:38No, no, this is Arrondissement.
23:41Oh my gosh, Katie.
23:42The Arrondissimates are on the map.
23:44Where's the Louvre?
23:45The Louvre's there.
23:46It says one ER there, just above it.
23:49Okay, so Arrondissement where the Louvre's located, one.
23:51Yeah.
23:53I feel really good that we don't have to go to all three places because we looked at the map
23:57and we realised that it was number one.
23:59Bingo.
24:00Bingo!
24:00That's what it is.
24:01So let's go to Notre Dame.
24:03Right, let's go.
24:04Go, go, go, go, go.
24:06The sister's smart gameplay means Katie and Amy leapfrog David and Stephen and take the lead.
24:11Maybe I should have gone on the travel later.
24:14But trailing last...
24:16I am stuck.
24:19Maddy and Nicola are in serious trouble and may be on the menu for the chasers tonight.
24:24It looks like a sonnet, doesn't it, or something like a poem.
24:27Excellent work, I'm impressed.
24:28Figure out who this is, find his masterpiece, exit by the river and look for a book stand.
24:35I've just got it.
24:38What?
24:39Eiffel.
24:42First letter of each word.
24:44E-I-F-F-E-L.
24:45Eiffel?
24:46Yeah.
24:47Gustav Eiffel.
24:48Right, looks like we're going to the Eiffel Tower.
24:50OK.
24:51Is this the way out yet?
24:53At the world's most visited art gallery, the Louvre...
24:56Let's go that way.
24:57...David and Stephen aren't here to view the Mona Lisa.
25:01The Arrandeismont where the Louvre is located.
25:04There.
25:04One R.
25:05Arrandeismont.
25:06Yeah.
25:07Arrandeismont is a district.
25:08Which we've got there.
25:09We've got one.
25:12Oh dear.
25:14The Arrandeismont.
25:15It's on the map.
25:16We probably should have seen that.
25:17Yeah, it does seem if people are in a more calm state of mind or thinking logically they
25:23could work that out and they could not come here.
25:25Fingers crossed that.
25:26Because then that's a lot of time that they can get back up.
25:28David and Stephen are right to be worried.
25:30Sorry.
25:31Oh.
25:32As Katie and Amy are closing in on Paris' newly restored medieval cathedral Notre-Dame
25:37in their hunt for the second padlock number.
25:40The central point on the floor outside of the Notre-Dame from which all road distances
25:45in France are measured.
25:47So it's on the floor outside, but where outside?
25:51What's this?
25:52Katie, it's here, it's here, it's here.
25:54Look, point zero.
25:56So question two is zero.
25:58So zero definitely.
26:00So that's two.
26:01So that must be a three-digit number.
26:03So we can't guess that.
26:04We need to get to the cheese place.
26:05Let's go this way.
26:09Katie and Amy just need to solve one more clue to complete round three and unlock the
26:14route to the next challenge.
26:16Across that bridge right this way.
26:17Let's go.
26:17That's it.
26:18That says Louvre.
26:19But Nikita and Ashwin have yet to even start the round, having misinterpreted the cryptic clue.
26:24Nikita and Ashwin, you are at the Louvre.
26:26OK.
26:28The incorrect location.
26:30You need to find the Iron Lady.
26:34Gustav E, it's the Eiffel Tower.
26:36It's not the Louvre.
26:37Oh.
26:38OK, we've messed that one up completely.
26:40It's my fault.
26:41I was trying to rush us.
26:42I just felt the pressure of trying to make up time from earlier.
26:45We might have to be facing the chasers now.
26:48Oh, God, this is where we're going to lose.
26:53How do you say cheese in French?
26:54Fromage.
26:56Four teams are midway through a high-octane race across Paris.
27:00They look stressed.
27:02I hope we're going the right way.
27:04Front runners, Cody and Amy...
27:06So, there's the cathedral.
27:07..and David and Stephen are searching Paris for the hidden numbers to unlock the padlock to complete round three.
27:13Oh, Gustav E, I knew that.
27:17At the back of the pack, Ashwin and Nikita are finally on their way to the Eiffel Tower.
27:22But Nicola and Maddy have already arrived.
27:26The arrondissement, where the Louvre is located.
27:29So, there's the arrondissement there, look.
27:31He's on the map.
27:32That's one, then, isn't it?
27:34Yeah.
27:35So, we've got one in.
27:37The central point on the floor outside of the Notre Dame,
27:40from which all road distances in France are measured.
27:44Hmm.
27:45That could even be zero.
27:47Zero?
27:47Yeah.
27:48Not a bad shout, that Madeleine Rose.
27:51That would make sense for all roads to start from zero.
27:55So, zero's one.
27:57So, we don't need to go there, then?
27:58I'm happy.
27:59I'm happy because I think we managed to get the last two numbers without going to the clues,
28:03which I think saved time.
28:04Shall we get back on the metro?
28:06It's the cheese museum.
28:07Yeah.
28:07Quite excited about this.
28:08As Nicola and Maddy storm back into the chase...
28:11Bonjour!
28:12...Ashwin and Nikita are finally taking on round three.
28:16The arrondissement, where the Louvre is located.
28:18You're sending me back to the bloody Louvre.
28:20Oh, my God.
28:22Surely you don't have to go there to know that.
28:26So, there must be some way of being able to work that out.
28:34Here.
28:34Is that our arrondissement?
28:36Yeah.
28:36Oh, my God, yeah.
28:37It's one ER.
28:38So, it's one.
28:39So, the last digit is one.
28:41Yeah.
28:42You're so clever.
28:45What did you get there?
28:47Never going to say that again.
28:48Dad was really smart on the map and worked out the Louvre from there.
28:52That was 100% Dad, because I don't think I would have ever spotted that, to be honest.
28:55Mozzie, I'm not a darn person.
28:57Oh, wait.
28:58What about that?
28:59Point zero.
29:00Definitely zero.
29:01Having locked in their second number.
29:03You think we should have guessed that?
29:04Yeah.
29:05David and Stephen are eight minutes on foot from the last three padlock digits at the Cheese
29:10Museum, ahead of Nicola and Maddy, who are en route there from the Eiffel Tower.
29:15And with Ashwin and Nikita making their way to Notre Dame, it's race leaders Amy and Katie,
29:20who are the first to arrive at Paris' most pongiest attraction.
29:25Is that it?
29:26Yeah, let's go in.
29:30Oh, it's very cheesy.
29:34Right, hold on.
29:35What's the clue?
29:35How can you govern a country which has blank varieties of cheese, Charles de Gaulle?
29:39So, where are we going to find it?
29:40What's on here?
29:41We're looking for, like, a quote.
29:44Ah, look.
29:49246.
29:49Move.
29:52246.
29:55Zero.
29:56One.
30:00Oh, my God, open up.
30:04Head to the pont that shares its name with a pilot who landed on a plane on the Hudson.
30:07What does pont mean in French?
30:09Pont is bridge.
30:10OK.
30:11There was a movie where the pilot landed the plane in the river.
30:16On the Hudson River?
30:16Yeah, but I don't know the name at all.
30:18How on earth are we going to find that out?
30:23I might recognise it if we see it.
30:25Let me look at the map.
30:25Bring that.
30:26Bring that.
30:29So, we're looking for a bridge.
30:31Pont de Sully.
30:32Yes, yes, yes, that's it.
30:34It's pretty sunny.
30:35Are you sure?
30:36The movie's coming.
30:36Buzz in.
30:37I know, I'm going.
30:38I want some cheese.
30:39No, we ain't got time.
30:41Despite starting Paris in last place.
30:43Oh, my gosh, pigeons.
30:44Katie and Amy are now leading the charge into the final round.
30:48Musée Verdun Fromage.
30:50Vivant de Fromage.
30:51Vivant.
30:51Vivant Fromage.
30:53Amy, I've clocked David and Stephen.
30:55Back on the road there.
30:59Did you not see the other team there?
31:01I didn't know.
31:02Well, they've obviously got over for us.
31:03They've been in and got out.
31:05When you think about how much of a back burner we started on,
31:09I feel like we're going to finish first this time.
31:11Yeah.
31:12So, I'm just going to put it out there.
31:13Not to be cocky, but...
31:15It really does stink of cheese.
31:17It does.
31:18Steve, here's the goal.
31:22256.
31:23256.
31:262, 4, 6, 0, 1.
31:31Hold on.
31:32Head to the pont that shares its name
31:34with a pilot who landed a plane on the Hudson.
31:40Head to the bridge pont.
31:42That's Sully in the film,
31:44where he saved all the people that were on board
31:46because the plane was...
31:47Yeah.
31:47Yeah.
31:48Tom Cruise was the pilot.
31:50Or maybe even Tom Hanks.
31:51You know, the guy you saw at the Waxworks Museum.
31:55Sully.
31:55Sully.
31:56It's there.
31:56It's just there.
31:57It's at the end of this street.
31:58OK, let's go.
31:59Dad!
32:00Piss the book he'll throw.
32:01I'm walking off because I found it.
32:03Trailing in last place.
32:05Point zero.
32:06Nikita and Ashwin will need to move fast
32:08to avoid the chasers.
32:09Let's go to the cheese place.
32:11Having skipped two locations
32:12through clever gameplay,
32:14Nicola and Maddy have leapfrogged into third place.
32:18Head to the point that shares its name
32:20with a pilot who landed a plane on the Hudson.
32:24I think he's called Sully.
32:25Sully.
32:26Yeah.
32:26Tom Hanks.
32:27Tom Hanks.
32:28Let's go.
32:30Museo du Fromage.
32:32With one team yet to arrive at the cheese museum,
32:35three pairs are zeroing in on Ponce Sully
32:37to begin round four.
32:39It's literally the next, it's there.
32:41With Katie and Amy leading the charge.
32:46This is the bridge.
32:55Congratulations on making it to Ponce Sully.
32:57Now, head west along the left bank of the river
33:00to find four part black cars.
33:03Getting one of them to begin round four.
33:05How do you know what's east or west?
33:07It'll say, look, north, south, east, west.
33:10So, where are we?
33:12Ponce Sully.
33:13West is this way.
33:14I think it's that one.
33:15It's that way.
33:19Katie, west is that way.
33:21So, we all need to work out left, right, or right, left.
33:23I think we should be on this side.
33:25Or you could be, it could be red as, it could be red as.
33:27Katie, listen to me,
33:29because I'm going to get the ump in a minute.
33:30No, you need to listen to me as well,
33:31because we're going to be a team.
33:32No.
33:33They might be saying, you've come from that direction.
33:35They know you're going to come from that direction.
33:36West is that way.
33:38Yeah, this is west.
33:39No.
33:40West.
33:40No.
33:41And then left back.
33:42No.
33:43West on this map is that direction.
33:45Well, let's go then.
33:46Can we just head that way?
33:48Let's go then, reluctantly.
33:51The race leaders will need to make tracks fast.
33:54I'm on the map, this is it.
33:55As David and Stephen are minutes behind,
33:57looking to reclaim their top spot.
34:00We found it.
34:01Ponce Sully.
34:01And there's no room for complacency in third place either.
34:07Because Ashwin and Nikita are wasting no time
34:09at the Cheese Museum.
34:11Sully.
34:11Sully's right here.
34:16Yeah?
34:17A fleet of black cars.
34:18Oh, gosh.
34:19Is that a stop there?
34:22It's not going to be this way.
34:23This doesn't look correct.
34:24Go this way, then.
34:25So sure of yourself.
34:26That wrong turn means that the sisters are now
34:29in a head-to-head battle with David and Stephen
34:30for pole position.
34:33As well as battling Paris' weather.
34:38Oh, sacre bleu.
34:40We're wasting so much time.
34:43Yeah, but everyone else might have as well.
34:45Oh, that, that, that.
34:48Do we need to cross?
34:52Bonjour.
34:53Quick!
34:54Oh, it's green.
34:54Let's go.
34:58Bonjour, players, and welcome to The Chase FM.
35:01I'm DJ Vixen.
35:04This is the final round before the finish line.
35:07All you need to do is answer two questions
35:10before you can move on.
35:12Go, go, go.
35:14Move, move, move.
35:16Each question will be inspired by a French-themed song.
35:20Incorrect answers will incur a one-minute penalty.
35:23Oh, God, they're everywhere.
35:24How are they here?
35:28Here's the first track.
35:34Which girl group had a 1998 hit with this song?
35:38A, All Saints.
35:39B, Atomic Kitten.
35:41C, Sugar Babes.
35:43I don't know.
35:45Right, my inclination would be C.
35:47Right, it's definitely not Sugar Babes.
35:49Okay.
35:50Well, the one I'm thinking of
35:51is the one with Christina Aguilera and Pink,
35:53but it's not that one.
35:53We've got to make a choice, haven't we?
35:57Here's the first track.
36:03So we'll lock in All Saints.
36:04Lock in All Saints.
36:06What, you think A, All Saints?
36:07Pressing it now.
36:11Correct.
36:11Oh, okay.
36:13Yes!
36:14Question two.
36:16This song reminds me of how I feel
36:18when I destroy contestants on the chase.
36:26Do you know this?
36:30The song's performed by the legendary Edith Piaf,
36:34but who portrayed her in a 2007 biopic?
36:38A, Audrey Tautou,
36:39B, Juliette Binoche,
36:41or C, Marion Cotillard?
36:43Audrey Tautou was massive.
36:45She was in the Da Vinci Code.
36:47I don't think it's B.
36:48Okay.
36:49I don't associate Juliette Binoche with singing.
36:51I think we should go for C.
36:53Go.
36:55Marion Cotillard.
36:57That answer is...
37:00Correct.
37:01Yes.
37:02Brilliant.
37:03Correct.
37:03Yes!
37:04Get me to be the next location, please, driver!
37:07That way.
37:08Well done.
37:10You may now proceed to the finishing line at Gallery Lafayette.
37:14Yes!
37:14Where you will find Brad waiting for you.
37:17Oh, my gosh.
37:18Let's do this.
37:19Oh, God, I don't like this little chase.
37:20With the two front runners now on the way to find me at the finish line...
37:25Stephen and David absolutely can't win free on the bounce.
37:28One of the bottom pairs will be facing the chasers.
37:32Bonjour.
37:34Welcome to the Chase FM.
37:36Not two black cars.
37:37Two have already gone, but the fact that one is still there...
37:40It's maybe positive.
37:46I think it's all the same.
37:47Yeah?
37:48Okay.
37:50Correct.
37:51Yay!
37:52Yay!
37:59What are you feeling?
38:01None of them.
38:04Oh.
38:05Oh, my God.
38:07Oh, never.
38:10Welcome to the Chase FM.
38:12Go for B.
38:13I'm going to go for that, B.
38:14Not a bloody clue.
38:16Incorrect.
38:18You've earned yourself a two-minute penalty.
38:21Very regrettable for you, considering Ashwin and Nikita now have a chance to catch up.
38:29I think it was all things.
38:32Oh, God.
38:33Correct.
38:34Yes!
38:35Well done.
38:36Second question.
38:43Nicola and Maddy, you may now continue.
38:46Oh, yay!
38:47Okay, thank God.
38:48Once again in Paris, Nikita and Ashwin have fought their way back from the very bottom to draw level with
38:53Nicola and Maddy.
38:56Please be right.
38:57But which team will be facing the Chasers?
39:00That answer is...
39:03And who will take top spot?
39:06Quick!
39:07It's all to play for.
39:08Galois Lafayette.
39:09Okay.
39:11Paris for one night only.
39:12The victim and the beast.
39:13Galois Lafayette.
39:14So it's here.
39:15There!
39:16Quick!
39:18Ready to get in the front door?
39:19Just in here.
39:20Oh, my gosh.
39:21Go!
39:22Go!
39:28Who's first this time?
39:29Who's it going to be?
39:35I can't believe it!
39:37It's the Hatchet King!
39:40I can't believe it, boys!
39:42We can't believe it.
39:43Really?
39:43Absolutely.
39:44Did you think someone had overtaken you?
39:46Who was that?
39:46It's Amy and Katie.
39:47Oh!
39:48Wow!
39:49Wow!
39:50Amy and Katie!
39:51Brilliant stuff.
39:53Second.
39:54Do you know something?
39:54Go on.
39:55At one point, you were actually in the lead.
39:57Oh, interesting.
39:59Take your places.
39:59Next to the gentleman.
40:01We were massively surprised tonight.
40:04We honestly thought we were second.
40:05We were not expecting to be in first.
40:07Well done.
40:08Well played.
40:09Amy had an absolute dilemma on a bridge with some directions,
40:12and we've just lost our lead.
40:15It's okay.
40:15I forgive you.
40:17And we move on.
40:21Now then, here we go.
40:24The next team across the finish line are safe,
40:26meaning the team behind them are facing the chasers.
40:29Right, let's go, man.
40:31Go.
40:33Run!
40:35Who is it?
40:38Oh, look!
40:39Hang on a minute.
40:42Hang on a minute.
40:44Hang on a minute.
40:45Oh, my God.
40:47You're still in the race.
40:48I am, I am.
40:50My heart is actually pumping up.
40:53That is absolutely brilliant.
40:55You don't face the chasers.
40:56You're through to the next city.
40:58I'm really thrilled for you.
41:00Go and join the others.
41:01Well done.
41:02Oh, brilliant.
41:04We're on to our fifth country.
41:06Never underestimate the underdogs.
41:13Right, now we know who's facing the chasers,
41:15and they don't.
41:17Oh, for God's sakes.
41:18Oh.
41:20Oh.
41:22Never mind, look.
41:23I've got to ask you, what went wrong?
41:25Because I'm Ian.
41:26Not there in the Eiffel Tower, apparently.
41:28It's like, see the big thing sticking out of the ground?
41:30And it is there.
41:32Here's the beauty of the last time you were placed last.
41:36You took on two chasers, one of those being the beast.
41:38So you now know that you can beat him and stay in the race.
41:41All right?
41:42I wish you luck.
41:43Well done.
41:44It is one of his.
41:45It is one of his.
41:46We've come last, which is disappointing,
41:48but the beast is bad.
41:49So looking forward to his face when he knows that we beat him twice.
41:52Done it before.
41:53You can do it again.
41:54The Vixen and the Beast will play Ashwin and Nikita.
41:58Will the Beast get revenge?
41:59Or will Ashwin and Nikita stay in the race?
42:02I hope they do.
42:15OK, we are just one more city away
42:17from the final of the chase around the world,
42:20where that £100,000 is waiting to be claimed.
42:25Ashwin and Nikita, you know what it got to do.
42:27If you want to stay in the game,
42:28you have to beat the chasers,
42:29the Vixen and the Beast lose and you go home.
42:33What are your thoughts?
42:34We've done it once.
42:35I'm hoping we can do it again,
42:36but they are the worst combination in my eyes.
42:39Beastie, how are you feeling about tonight's quiz?
42:42If I lose tonight, it's twice in a row,
42:44and that never happens.
42:45You can do this.
42:46You've been in this position before, OK?
42:49You know the rules by now.
42:50You get a two-step head start.
42:51Each correct answer moves you closer to your target of 10.
42:54Once you hit that target of 10, we will stop the clock.
42:56That, then, is the time that the chasers have to beat.
43:00If the chasers get it within that time, you're out.
43:02You ready for this?
43:03Yeah.
43:04Ready.
43:04I wish luck.
