Today's contestants are Bob Merson & Janine Perkins from Berkshire, Lynn & Steve Powell from Cleveland, Tony Bennett (no, not that one) & Sam Vaughan from the West Midlands, and Shirley & Paul Brown from Cambridge. Bruce Forsyth and assistant Rosemary Ford preside over a fun episode, despite some seemingly prosaic games, such as being a one man (and woman) band, tying a bow on a Xmas parcel (not as easy as it should be for these contestants), being a pantomime cow, and Guessing the Musical song, which I struggled on with some (I clearly don't know my musicals). The finale involves the final couples having to perform a magic trick, assisted by Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee. And Daniels shows just what a amusing host is was here, while the final reveal will have you wondering "Surely that wasn't...?" Well, I'll not spoil the surprise. Just sit back and enjoy.

15:16Ruth wrote this song just for you.
15:19And this is the thanks we get.
15:22It's everything.
15:22It's everything.
15:23Go on, finish it.

15:41That's absolutely lovely.
15:43Okay, well, Bruce, what do you think about?
15:45The couple on my right did tremendously well, tremendously.
15:47You've made that from Skoda spare parts, obviously.
15:5117 out of 20.
15:5217 out of 20, well done.
15:57And what about over here?
16:00Marvellous as well, I thought.
16:01I put so much into it, and I think because so much fell to bits,
16:04which wasn't their fault, but they kept going 18 out of 20.
16:0618!
16:07Oh!
16:08Well done.
16:10Okay.
16:11If you're just...
16:12Bruce, thank you so much for being with us,
16:15and thank you for writing the song,
16:17and it's one of the funniest things we've ever had on the Generation Game.
16:20Thank you, Bruce.
16:21How do you do that?
16:24Now then...

16:33Lynn and Steve have scored 18.
16:35Ah, so there they are.
16:36Nothing with it, nothing with it.
16:37So if you all just go over there and get unloaded, all right,
16:41Get unloaded over there, okay?
16:43That's it, it's fine.
16:44Take some time.
16:45Right.
16:46That's it.
16:47Good.
16:48Now, our next game is called...
16:51Our next game is called...
16:53Shut up!
16:55Because there's people in the audience trying to sleep.
16:59Our next game is called Take the Bow.
17:03I mean, take a bow.
17:05But first of all, feast your eyes on this.
17:08Now, as Christmas is coming,
17:11it's lovely to have your presents wrapped up really nice.
17:15And that's what this game is all about.
17:17So, please let us welcome
17:19someone who made all these artistic things with her fingers.
17:23It's Bobby Forkham.
17:31Well done, Bob.
17:33Now, it's getting near Christmas,
17:36and the wrapping of presents is such a lovely thing,
17:39but it's just important to make the present look nice.
17:42And you can always make a present look more expensive
17:45if you've done it up nicely, can't you?
17:47Yes, you can.
17:47Which I think is all about.
17:48And that's what this is all about.
17:49So, kids, I'm sure you'll enjoy sort of watching this.
17:53And mum and dad, when you're wrapping your presents,
17:55and bring them all back, that's lovely Rosie,
17:57and get in here so that you can see just what Bob is...
18:00She'll explain what she's doing as she goes...
18:02Go on. Away you go.
18:03Most important thing is to remember to fold away from you,
18:07over the top, about 12 times.
18:11Make sure you keep all the ribbon in nice and neatly together.
18:14Yes.
18:16Yep.
18:17Just cut that off.
18:19Off.
18:19And then cut, save for simplicity, a mounting shape.
18:26Yep.
18:32Good.
18:33Like that.
18:34Yep.
18:35Put the two shapes together in the middle.
18:39Cut a nice length off.
18:43Oh.
18:44Oh, I've gone there.
18:49I've gone there.
18:50It's been a kind of a diamond.
18:52Now, tie this really tightly,
18:54because she won't be able to pull the bow out otherwise.
18:57Oh, I see.
18:58Nice and tight.
18:59Then you simply pull out each one by going one down, one up.
19:04One up.
19:04One down.
19:05One down.
19:06One up.
19:07It's like playing golf.
19:07One down.
19:09One down.
19:09Down.
19:10One up.
19:10Up.
19:11Oh.
19:12One down.
19:12Oh.
19:13Oh, you've finished all square.
19:15I've finished all square.
19:16Good.
19:16Right.
19:16Then you take your parcel, and tie a tight lot at the back.
19:26Yeah, because that's always difficult.
19:26Tie it down.
19:27That's quite important.
19:28Otherwise, it's still hot.
19:28Yes.
19:28I see the way you did that.
19:30You really put quite a lot of pressure on that.
19:31Yes.
19:31Then cut it.
19:32And then just move the bow.
19:34Move the bow around to the front.
19:36To the front.
19:37Just tidy it up.
19:38Tidy it up, yes.
19:39And that's your cross.
19:39And that's beautiful.
19:41That really is.
19:43Have you got a name for it at all?
19:45No.
19:46Oh, will you call it the Brucey bow?
19:47I will from now on, yes.
19:48I've never had a bow named after me.
19:51It's nice.
19:52That's beautiful.
19:52A Brucey bow.
19:53Will you come back?
19:54Not a bonus.
19:55Okay.
19:56Now, will you come back and do some marking for us?
19:58I will, yes.
19:58Thank you, Bobby.
19:58It's been lovely to watch.
20:00You come over here.
20:01Get to your tables.
20:02Okay.
20:02Get your ribbons.
20:03You've got yellow ribbons.
20:05Everything ready there?
20:06You've got about a minute and a half to make a lovely bow starting from now.
20:14That's it.
20:14Started off right away from you, she said, didn't she?
20:17That's the sort of thing.
20:19Yes.
20:21He's getting in a state there.
20:23What's the bet in you'll never finish?
20:27That's it.
20:27Oh, you've got even quicker here.
20:30Okay.
20:31There we are.
20:33Right.
20:33I hope you're not doing this at home, children, with mummy's curtains.
20:42You've got 30 seconds left now.
20:44You should be pulling your bows out.
20:48Okay?
20:49Pull your bow out into a nice shape.
20:53It's...
20:54I think this is going to be a waste of time.
20:59All of a sudden, it's all gone to nothing.
21:01When will I ever learn?
21:05Right.
21:05Tie it on the box, because time's nearly up.
21:07Tie it on the box.
21:09At least you get some points for having something on the box.
21:13At least if it's tight, it will help you.
21:15Okay.
21:16Time's up.
21:17Time's up.
21:17Time's up.
21:18Okay, Bobby.
21:19Will you come back and do some math?
21:21Yes.
21:22Come in here.
21:24That's it.
21:24Will you get this?
21:25Here, Bob.
21:26That's fine.
21:27Now, what do you think of this?
21:29Well, he's started to open it, but the cut wasn't good enough.
21:34No, he made them too big to start with, you see.
21:37He was a bit heavy-handed there.
21:38He has actually got it on the box.
21:40Yes, he's on the box.
21:40And it's tight.
21:41It's a bit loose.
21:42It's a bit loose, but it's on, and he's saying it wouldn't come off, you see.
21:45I think...
21:46Gran would be thrilled with that, she'll get the tools in it, as old gran would, yes.
21:50Yes.
21:50I think five out of ten.
21:52Five out of ten for Bob.
21:53Not bad, not bad.
21:55If I may move you down here, Janice, that's fine.
21:59And, well, there it is.
22:00I don't think that was started off properly.
22:03No, it wasn't started off, and the finish didn't help either.
22:06I mean, it's a shame she didn't...
22:08I think, I think, um, three is the best.
22:12Yeah, for standing here.
22:14Yeah, there we are.
22:15But, if you've got things to do, that's basic.
22:18I'd be hopeless myself, I know that.
22:20And there's another one, uh, well, this doesn't look much good either.
22:26Does it?
22:27I mean, the cutting wasn't bad, and they were good size.
22:30But, there we are, what do you think?
22:32I'm afraid just about one for that.
22:34Really?
22:34Do you think it's worse than that one?
22:37Yes.
22:37You do?
22:38Yeah, because that one, at least it's tied.
22:40At least it's tied?
22:41Yes.
22:41I see what you mean.
22:42Only one, darling.
22:43Sorry about that.
22:44But what about, um, what about this one?
22:48Oh, that's tied.
22:49Oh, he's got another bow there, look.
22:52Oh, aren't you clever, Steve, yes.
22:54It's tied on, it's secure.
22:55Yes, it's secure.
22:56Yes.
22:57These would have been all right if he'd have spread them out somehow, wouldn't they?
23:00That's right.
23:00But, you know, it's up to me.
23:01Yeah, I think about three for that one, out of ten.
23:03Only three for this one?
23:04One, okay, three.
23:05There we are.
23:06Well, thank you so much.
23:07I know we've all learned from this.
23:09And don't forget, make your Brucey bows early for Christmas.
23:12Thank you, Bobby.
23:13Thank you, Chris.
23:13I'm glad we had you.
23:15Come here.
23:15Come here.
23:15Come back here.
23:17Come back here.
23:19Come back here.
23:19Come back here.
23:20Come back here.
23:21Come back here.
23:22Come back here.
23:23What's on the board, Miss Ford?
23:27Well, Janice and Bob have scored 25.
23:2925.
23:29Lynn and Steve have scored 22.
23:3222.
23:33Oh, bad.
23:34Well, we're sorry that the Bays did it, I'm afraid.
23:37Thanks.
23:38But thank you for being here.
23:39And we do have a Generation Game telephone for each of you to keep in touch, not with each
23:43other, but give us a ring from time to time as well.
23:46Thanks.
23:46Thank you for being with us.
23:47And we'll see you in our grand final, which is coming up very soon.
23:51Okay, there you go.
23:52Lovely luck.
23:53Nice seat.
23:54Now then, who have we got left?
23:59Well, our third teams from the West Midlands, their uncle and niece, Tony Bennett and Sam
24:05Vaughan.
24:05I see.
24:06Oh, that's lovely.
24:08Lovely.
24:11That's lovely, that's lovely.
24:15It's Samantha.
24:16Sam, but people mostly call you Sam, I see.
24:19And you're married to Robert, and you met at the Queen's Hotel.
24:22Yes.
24:22I didn't know she had a hotel.
24:25What's it called?
24:25The Buckingham Palace, Elton?
24:28Tell us about the wedding and the honeymoon.
24:30Well, whilst talking to the vicar, getting the arrangements sorted, he was trying to
24:35arrange the bands.
24:37Yes.
24:37So I said, don't worry, it's all right, we've got a disco booked.
24:43That's funny.
24:44You raised a band and said, oh no, don't worry, we've got a disco booked.
24:47That's marvellous.
24:48And the honeymoon?
24:49Well, being an animal lover, we'd acquired a dog, Scooby.
24:52Scooby?
24:53Not long before the wedding, yes.
24:55Before the wedding, yes.
24:55Well, what's that got to do with the honeymoon?
24:56Well, we went to the Lake District, you see.
24:58You went to the Lake District?
24:59You drove up there, yes?
25:00We did, yes.
25:00Walking, we thought that we'd take the dog with us, so we did.
25:04But because she was only new to the family, she wasn't sort of settled down and couldn't
25:08sleep at night.
25:09She kept barking, so we had to have her in the bedroom with us, and in between us, on
25:13the bed.
25:15Every night.
25:17Every night?
25:17Every night.
25:18Of your honeymoon?
25:19Yes.
25:19And what about the next morning?
25:20I could just see the room service waiter in the morning saying, two champagne breakfast
25:26and a tin of chum.
25:29Well, I bet you wondered what was going on up there.
25:31Anyway, thank you for telling us all about that.
25:33Now, over to, it's Tony...
25:34Tony Bennett.
25:35Tony Bennett!
25:36Ladies and gentlemen, the star of...
25:38Oh!
25:40Straight from Las Vegas, Tony Bennett!
25:43Oh, you know, my favourite song of yours is, uh...
25:45Oh, the good life...
25:48Do it, do it.
25:49Is it?
25:49Oh, the good life...
25:51Is it?
25:52Yeah, it's Ben.
25:53It's Ben.
25:53It's Ben.
25:54I'm sorry, I don't think it's him.
25:55Anyway, you are a dog handler.
25:59I'm not.
26:00Eh?
26:00No.
26:01It says you work for Rovers.
26:04Yes.
26:05Rover.
26:07Well, what do you do there at Rover?
26:08I fit the radiators to the new Rovers.
26:10Oh, the radiators?
26:11Yeah.
26:12And how many of those do you do a day?
26:13380.
26:14380 a day.
26:15380 radiators you fit a day?
26:17Yeah.
26:17God, blimey.
26:18And how do you let off steam after that?
26:21You used to be a milkman?
26:23Yes.
26:23Oh, is that right?
26:23Many years of milkman.
26:24Must have been lots of stories about it.
26:25Are you going to tell us about that?
26:26Any one you want to tell us about it?
26:27The one I can tell you about is a lady had taken her children to school, came back and
26:31She'd taken her children to school, she came back and she'd left herself out.
26:33And she'd left herself out.
26:34Oh.
26:35Her husband was on nights and she asked me to go and get the ladders out from the shed.
26:39Yeah.
26:39And climb up to the window where he was sleeping and wake him up.
26:42Oh, really?
26:42And she'd come down and open up.
26:44Yeah.
26:45So, I'm pushed on top of those ladders banging on the window and he sort of startled and woke up.
26:50And he said, you've got the wrong date to my mate, I'm here.
26:54I'm just out shaking on top of those ladders.
26:56Yeah.
26:56Well, I tell you, I don't blame him with you being the milkman.
27:05Anyway, thank you for being here, Tony, Sam.
27:08We've got a game coming up.
27:09We'll see who you're going to play against.
27:11Okay, off you go over there.
27:12And who are our last couple?
27:14Well, they're from Cambridgeshire.
27:17Their mother and son, Shirley and Paul Brown.
27:20Right.
27:21There we are.
27:22Hello.
27:24Welcome here.
27:26Good, good.
27:30Now, it's Shirley Brown and you're a medical receptionist.
27:33That's right.
27:34I see.
27:34Married to Val.
27:35Yes, that's right.
27:36Is that right?
27:36Yes, I am.
27:37And he didn't know what to buy you for your birthday, so he bought you an engagement ring.
27:41Yes, he did.
27:42Oh, blimey.
27:43Just so he wouldn't have to buy you a birthday present.
27:45I think he has a birthday present.
27:46Make a note of that.
27:48Cheap sky.
27:50Any children at all?
27:51Yes, I've got three sons.
27:52Three sons.
27:53And I suppose he worked it so they were born on Christmas days.
27:57So let's save another three presents.
28:00I've gone right off it.
28:01Is he in the audience?
28:02Of course he is.
28:03I hope so.
28:03It's free.
28:03I hope so.
28:05Welcome back to your son, Paul.
28:06How are you, Paul?
28:07And you're a police officer.
28:09That's right, yes.
28:09War night.
28:11Come on.
28:11Evening, no.
28:12War night.
28:12War night.
28:13Lovely.
28:14Right, now, you're single, so you've not apprehended anyone yet to accompany you down the aisle.
28:20No, no, no.
28:22Describe your ideal woman.
28:23I mean, blonde or brunette?
28:24Well, I'm not fussy.
28:25Blonde, long legs.
28:27Measurements?
28:2936, 22, 36.
28:30But I'm not that fussy, bro.
28:31You're not that fussy.
28:33And where would you take this goddess?
28:35Where would you take her?
28:36Miami.
28:37Miami.
28:37Miami.
28:37Anywhere else?
28:39Anywhere, Nassau.
28:39Anywhere.
28:40Florida in the sun.
28:41Oh, lovely.
28:41Come here.
28:42Come here.
28:43Come here.
28:43If it all happens.
28:45Very warm nights.
28:47Very warm nights.
28:48Hey, thanks for being here.
28:51Over there, you guys.
28:52And we'll see what we've got for you.
28:54All right?
28:55Five.
28:56Seven.
28:58I haven't done a pantomime in over 25 years.
29:01But tonight, I've asked my favourite co-star to be with us.
29:05But she won't come out here unless you shout her name.
29:09It's Daisy.
29:10All right?
29:10One, two, three.
29:13Daisy.
29:13Come here.
29:23Come here, Daisy.
29:24Come here.
29:25Now, Daisy, aren't you a lovely, fat old cow?
29:29Now, it's time for milking.
29:31My hands are warm.
29:35You ask the milkmaid.
29:39Rosie, bring me the stool.
29:42There we are.
29:42There we are.
29:43Now, the stool is...
29:46Get up, you lazy old cow.
29:53That's it.
29:54Now, then.
29:55Oh.
29:56You bad-tempered old cow.
29:59You behave yourself.
30:00Otherwise, you'll finish up being a Big Mac.
30:02Now.
30:04Come here.
30:05Come here.
30:05You've got to be milked.
30:10Why?
30:11Why?
30:11What's the...
30:11Well.
30:20You've already been milked.
30:22Oh, isn't that lovely.
30:25Everything's real.
30:26I bet you're happy now.
30:29Are you happy enough to do us a lovely little dance?
30:33Okay, Daisy.
30:33Here we go, then.
30:35Okay.
30:35One, two, three, four.
30:37One, two, three, four.
30:38One, three, four.
30:38One, two, three, four.
30:38One, two, three, four.
30:39One, two, three, four.
30:39One, three, four.
30:40One, three, four.
30:43That's it.
30:44Down we go.
30:46Good.
30:48Yes.
30:52Oh, it looked bad.
30:55Oh.
31:00That's a lovely bow of jaw.
31:02Well, that's all there is to it, okay?
31:06Men at the front and the ladies at the back, okay?
31:10So, if you'll just go there and do some marking for us, will you?
31:14Later on.
31:15See, that's fine.
31:16Be careful, Dave, be careful.
31:19Oh, definitely the ladies at the back.
31:22Okay, off you go.
31:23Get ready, go on.
31:25Off you go.
31:27So, we'll soon be ready for Daisy Take Two.
31:32Oh, oh, over here.
31:38Over here, that's it.
31:39Okay, good, good.
31:41There we are, just there.
31:42Well, aren't you a lovely old cow?
31:45No, flatter your eyes, dear.
31:47Flutter your eyes, mate.
31:48Now, it's time for milking.
31:51No, you're shaking your legs.
31:52Shake your legs.
31:53Shake your legs.
31:54No, shake your legs.
31:59That's it.
32:00What's the matter?
32:00Do you fancy a jersey?
32:02Rosie, bring on the stool.
32:07That's it.
32:07Okay, this will be a bit tricky.
32:09So, sit down, Daisy.
32:11Sit down.
32:12Okay, now sit on her.
32:13Sit on her.
32:14That's it.
32:15And cross your legs.
32:16Cross your legs.
32:17Cross your legs.
32:17Get up, get up, you lazy old cow.
32:30Now, now, kick the stool, dear.
32:31Kick the stool.
32:32Kick the stool away.
32:33Kick the stool.
32:34That's it.
32:35Good.
32:35Now, now you've got, you've got to be milked.
32:40This is where you do your big moo.
32:42Okay.
32:43Do a big moo.
32:45Moo.
32:45No, not you at the end there.
32:47Shut up.
32:49You don't moo from there.
32:51Well, you'll be a good trick.
32:53Right, here we go.
32:54Right.
32:57Do your big moo.
32:59Moo.
32:59Very good.
33:01Oh, you've already been milked.
33:03Oh, there we are.
33:06Oh, Rosemary, you ordered that, didn't you?
33:09That's it.
33:09Now, your feet, I bet you're so happy you could do your little dance.
33:13Don't forget, start this way round and don't forget, kick your legs out of the side.
33:17Here we go.
33:18Hold on.
33:18The music hasn't started yet.
33:21Stupid old cow.
33:22Right.
33:23Here we go.
33:24One, two, three, four.
33:28Good luck, mate.
33:29That's it.
33:32Go round to the left.
33:33Round to the left.
33:35Come here.
33:36Come here.
33:36Come here.
33:37Come here.
33:38Come here.
33:41Cross your legs.

33:43That's it.
33:45Very nice.

33:50Good.
33:51Very nice.
33:52Okay.

34:04Here we are.
34:05Aren't you a lovely fat old cow?
34:20No, flatter your eyes.
34:22Flatter your eyes.
34:23That's it.
34:23Good, good, good.

34:33I'll give her a cow pat.
34:37Right.
34:38Rosie.
34:39Rosie.
34:39Bring on the stool.
34:41That's it.
34:41This is tricky.
34:42So, can you sit down, dear?
34:43Can you sit down?
34:44That's it.
34:45Now, you sit down as well.
34:47Sit down.
34:47Now, cross your...

35:02Kick the stool.
35:03Kick it.
35:04Good.
35:04Good.
35:05That's it.
35:05Now, then.
35:06Oh, you are a gauntless Guernsey.
35:08Right.
35:09Now, you've got to be milked.
35:11Do it this way.
35:12You do your big moo, okay?
35:13A big moo.
35:14Moo.
35:17Very good.
35:18Again.
35:22Wait if the sergeant sees this.
35:26Okay.
35:27What's that?
35:27You've already been milked.
35:30You've already...
35:31You've got something in there, dear.
35:32You've already been...
35:33That's it.
35:35All because the Daisy loves milk tray.
35:39Oh, you're getting all the prizes.
35:42Listen, I bet you're so happy now,
35:44you'd love to do your little dance.
35:46Wouldn't you?
35:47Okay, fine.
35:48Now, face the front here.
35:49I've never seen she's a lopsided thing.
35:52Okay, here we go.
35:53One, two, three, four.
35:58No, come here.
35:59Come here.
36:00No, no, no, no.
36:01Round to the left.
36:03Round to the left.
36:04Just a little.
36:04Come back.
36:05Get ready for the cross legs.
36:07Cross your legs in a minute.
36:10Very good.
36:13Wonderful.
36:14Okay, let's get you out.
36:17Okay, are you all right, my love?
36:19No.
36:19Are you all right?
36:21Okay, hold on.
36:22Are you out?
36:22Can you get out?
36:24Can you get out?
36:25Are you all right?
36:26Fine.
36:27There we go, Rosie.
36:27Okay, you can keep that, Rosie.
36:31Okay, do you keep it?
36:33Yes.
36:33Make a nice pyjama case.
36:36Okay, you are good sports.
36:37You really are.
36:38And let's have Daisy back for some marking.
36:41Daisy.
36:41Oh, lovely.
36:43Wasn't that good?
36:45Wasn't it good?
36:46Yes.
36:47Now, first of all, the couple over here.
36:49What did you think?
36:50Oh, that's ten, plus two, three, four, five, five.
36:57Fifteen.
36:58Fifteen out of twenty.
36:59Well done, you two.
37:02Now, how about Shirley and Cole?
37:05Oh, that's another ten.
37:07Yes, ten.
37:08Two, three, four, fourteen.
37:11Okay, so fifteen and fourteen.
37:15Okay, off you go there, Daisy.
37:18Off you go.
37:19Lovely.
37:19Lovely.
37:20Good.
37:21Now, then.
37:23So, what's on the milk marketing board?
37:28Miss Ford?
37:30Well, Sam and Tony have scored fifteen.
37:33Shirley and Paul have scored fourteen.
37:35Oh!
37:37Not much of it.
37:39Now we're ready for our fourth game,
37:41which is called Name That Musical.
37:44Ladies, get to the lecterns on the outside,
37:48and gentlemen, behind the screens,
37:49and get behind the table.
37:51Behind the table.
37:53Get behind the table.
37:54Okay, you're going to hear music
37:56for some wonderful, wonderful musicals.
37:58Okay, you write down what musical you think it is,
38:03and you gentlemen, pick up the item
38:05that you think is the right item for that musical.
38:08Could we have musical number one?
38:11I feel pretty, oh so pretty.
38:14I feel pretty and witty and gay.
38:17And I pity many girls in me today.
38:23Okay, now that was from that lovely, lovely musical,
38:28West Side Story.
38:29The song was I Feel Pretty.
38:31So, what did we get over there?
38:32We have West Side Story over here.
38:34West Side Story, well done, well done over there.
38:37And the lay garland.
38:38He's got the lay garland, which is, yes, wrong.
38:42Yes.
38:42Okay, we've got My Fair Lady.
38:47Nothing for that.
38:49And you've got the ladies as well.
38:51What a start.
38:53Right, so let's have musical number two.
39:01Bloody Mary is the girl I love.
39:04Bloody Mary is the girl I love.
39:08Bloody Mary is the girl I love.
39:11Bloody Mary is the girl I love.
39:13Bloody Mary is the girl I love.
39:14Bloody Mary is the girl I love.
39:14Okay, have we got an answer?
39:16Yes, we have.
39:16Look at those silly fools.
39:19Right, that was from South Pacific.
39:21The song was Bloody Mary, of course.
39:24And what did we get over there?
39:25We've got South Pacific.
39:26South Pacific.
39:27And what has he got that on?
39:32That should have been the lay.
39:34You look like, yeah, Tom Mix.
39:37Right, so you don't get anything for that.
39:40And we've got South Pacific.
39:41One point for us, but you don't get anything.
39:44Take that stupid hat off.
39:45I'm going to say nothing for that.
39:48Okay, can we have musical number three, please?
39:51Put it on, put it on.
40:13Right, okay.
40:14It was from the Phantom of the Opera, of course.
40:17All I asked of you was the song.
40:19And what have we got over there?
40:20Phantom of the Opera.
40:21Phantom of the Opera.
40:22She's very good over there.
40:23Okay, so it's another point for you.
40:25But what he's got that crown on.
40:26I never know.
40:28Never know.
40:29It should have been the opera glasses.
40:30Phantom of the Opera.
40:32Okay, you look such a burk.
40:33Yes.
40:35Okay, now what have we got here?
40:37Phantom of the Opera.
40:38Well done there, my darling.
40:39You've got the opera glasses.
40:41Yes.
40:42Two points.
40:43Well done indeed.
40:45Well done indeed.
40:46Anyway, let's have the last musical, please.
40:49Whenever I feel afraid, I hold my head erect, and whistle a happy tune, so no one will suspect.
40:59I'm afraid.
41:01I'm afraid.
41:02Right, now then.
41:11It was...
41:12It was...
41:13Okay, the musical was The King and I, I whistle a happy tune.
41:24Okay, what did you get over there?
41:27West Side Story.
41:28West Side Story?
41:30Okay, nothing but that, and I wish you'd take...
41:32Take that hat off.
41:34Sick of the sight of it.
41:35Okay, and we've got The King and I, yes.
41:39Well done.
41:41Well done.
41:42And of course, he put it on as a dog collar, did you see him?
41:46He put it on as a vicar.
41:47Then he ended up as a nun, but you're completely wrong.
41:49It should have been the crown, and I'll crown you in a minute as well.
41:53But what, what a complete waste of time.
41:56Well, I tell you, what's on the board, Miss Ford?
42:10Well, Sam and Tony have scored 19.
42:12Nineteen?
42:12Shirley and Paul have scored 17.
42:1417.
42:15Ah, dear, oh, dear.
42:17Well, we lose you, unfortunately, but thank you for being with us.
42:20We do give you a Generation Game telephone to each of you,
42:24and thank you so much for being part of it.
42:25And there we are.
42:26Off you go there.
42:27Say goodbye to them.
42:29And let's remind...
42:30Let's remind ourselves of who you will be playing in our grand final.
42:40Grand final we've got for you.
42:42Now, I know we don't usually do this,
42:45but will you ladies kindly get up and go round the back there?
42:49Okay?
42:50Fine.
42:51Now, the reason for that is I'm dying for a sit-down.
42:55Oh, it's been such a long night, and a long day, it really has.
42:59But, gentlemen, what you're about to see,
43:01you've not only got to copy the words, but also the actions.
43:06Okay, please welcome Mr. Paul Daniels.
43:09Yes.
43:10Yes.
43:18Now, as I understand it, our contestants have to copy not only the actions, but the words.
43:21So let me explain what you're about to see.
43:24I am a modern-style magician, a conjurer par excellence, they tell me,
43:28a sex symbol in his own right.
43:29However, in times that have now long gone,
43:33what they've got, of course, is a completely different kind of attitude.
43:36They have this.
43:37Now, imagine you're going back in time to when magicians had grand cabinets,
43:41such as we have here, lovely assistants like Rosemary.
43:44Hello there.
43:45And, of course, this, the magic wedge, which is there to hold it all in place.
43:50If I open this like this, you can see that the front of the front door
43:52is exactly the same as the back of the front door.
43:54Now, you're looking at the front of the back door.
43:56Now, the front of the back door is exactly the same as the front of the back of the front door.
44:00But there is something that I must show you, and it's vital that you understand this.
44:05You can now see right through the cabinet, right to the back.
44:08And down at the back here, we have two little catches.
44:11If we just remove the catches like this, we can lower the flap to show you how thin the table is.
44:16You see?
44:17Like that.
44:18Now, there you can see the proof that underneath there,
44:21there are no concealed compartments or mirrors.
44:22Indeed, your goodness, no.
44:24Now, if you go all the way around the cabinet like this,
44:26you can see all the way through the cabinet.
44:29And that enables you, of course, to show you for the first time the back of the back door.
44:33Now, the back of the back door is over there.
44:35I must replace the magic wedge.
44:37And then we close the door.
44:39Remember, you've seen both sides of the front door, both sides of the back door.
44:43You have seen right round it and underneath it.
44:45So, where could we possibly have concealed Miss Debbie McGee?
44:50Oh!
44:54Very good.
44:55Yeah, very good.
44:59The chat is always there.
45:03Debbie's always there at the right time.
45:06Now, listen, that was absolutely marvelous.
45:08That was the wrong time to do that, Bruce.
45:10Yeah, of course, it is the wrong time.
45:11But do it over there, if you like.
45:13But don't do too much of that, because we want you to do some marking.
45:16Scoring.
45:16Okay, and help us.
45:17Scoring.
45:18Scoring, that's right.
45:18I'll be good.
45:19You've scored enough of your time.
45:20Oh, God, you're going to do it.
45:22Okay, you two come back here.
45:27We're ready now for the vital toss-up.
45:29So, sit yourself down there, Sam, as you're nearest.
45:32Heads or tails?
45:33Heads.
45:33Heads.
45:34Let's see.
45:34It's heads, isn't it?
45:36Yes.
45:36So, you've won the toss.
45:37Now, then.
45:38Okay.
45:40Now, then.
45:41Do you want to go first or second?
45:43First.
45:44Get it over with?
45:45First.
45:45First, get it over with.
45:46Okay.
45:47Over there.
45:48Rosie, get them ready.
45:49All right, then.
45:50And take these two to a very dark alley in Soho.
45:56All right, then.
45:56There's plenty of dark alleys there.
45:58Just take them there, and that'll be that.
46:00Right, so we're now ready for Paul Daniels' take two.
46:11Hello.
46:11Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
46:14Tonight, we're going back in time.
46:17We're not having any of the high-technology tricks that we do,
46:20but this is a genuine, old-fashioned trick.
46:23First of all, the very important box,
46:26this wonderful box with a magic wedge.
46:29If I remove that wedge,
46:31you can see the front and the back of the door,
46:32and the back and the front of the door,
46:34and the front and the back of the door.
46:36And not only can you see the front and the back of the door,
46:38you can also see the back and the front of the door,
46:40and the side of the door.
46:42With my wonderful assistant there.
46:44She's there.
46:45Now, if I walk round this side,
46:48and open up the back of the door,
46:50which is now the front of the door,
46:52and the front of the door should be the back of the door,
46:55but you never know,
46:57this back of the door could be the front of the door.
47:00Go there.
47:02Not only can you see inside the box now,
47:04but you can walk through the box
47:07and round the game.
47:12And underneath there,
47:14somewhere are two catches,
47:17which show how thin this table is.
47:20Well, look at that.
47:22That's a thin table, isn't it?
47:24Look at that.
47:25It's really thin.
47:28So if I shut...
47:29If I shut...
47:31Walk through here,
47:32and shut the back of the door,
47:34which is now the front of the door,
47:36and the back of the door now becomes the front of the door,
47:40which was the back of the door,
47:41and I put the wedge in,
47:44and I go round this side,
47:4680 by my wonderful assistants there,
47:49and close the back of the door,
47:51which was the front of the door,
47:52which is now the back of the door,
47:53and the front of the door.
47:56And you're going to marvel at this.
47:59Hey, presto!
48:00Hey!
48:06How are you doing?
48:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.
48:13That was nice.
48:14The back of the door, the back of the door.
48:16Whatever you do,
48:17don't go out the back door.
48:18Because you're saying, stay.
48:20Stay a while.
48:22Very fast.
48:22That's it.
48:23Lovely, lovely.
48:25Over you go there.
48:26Go to Bob.
48:26Rose will get you ready.
48:27Now we're ready for Paul Daniels,
48:30take three.
48:31APPLAUSE
48:33Thank you very much indeed for being here tonight.
48:40My name's Bob.
48:40I'm going to sell you a trick now.
48:41You haven't seen it before.
48:43I'm a modern-day magician.
48:44You haven't.
48:44And I want to show you how it works.
48:46Just follow me.
48:50As you can see,
48:51I have a cabinet here.
48:52I wish I could be working with Rosemary Ford
48:54instead of my other assistant,
48:55who's a bit...
48:55Oh, she's not behind there at the moment.
48:57She's always good when she's a cabinet.
48:59I have a cabinet.
49:00I forgot that.
49:01I have a cabinet.
49:02As you can see,
49:03there's a front door,
49:04there's a side,
49:05a back door,
49:05which you can't see at a moment,
49:06and another side.
49:07If I spit...
49:08Don't spit around.
49:09The wedge is there for a reason.
49:10If I pull the wedge away,
49:12it releases the door.
49:13When I open the door,
49:15I can see the inside of the front door
49:17and the back side of the inside...
49:19The back side...
49:20The inside of the inside door
49:22and the back side of that door.
49:24When I walk around this side
49:25and remove this door,
49:27you can see
49:28there's nothing in it.
49:30It's the inside of that door still.
49:33You can see the four sides.
49:34So if I close this now...
49:36And close this one now.
49:40And close this one.
49:42You can see this side of the door
49:43and that side of the door
49:44and the inside of the door.
49:48For more technology,
49:49things don't always go as you expect it to.
49:53I apologize, Bruce, now.
49:54Anyway, ladies and gentlemen,
49:56I'd like to produce
49:57something out of this trick.
49:59Out will come my lovely assistant...
50:01I'm sorry about this.
50:13And out will come
50:14my lovely assistant...
50:16Ladies and gentlemen,
50:18Janice.
50:19Paul!
50:24Oh, I'm sorry.
50:27Oh, I'm sorry.
50:28Oh, I'm sorry.
50:30Oh, dear, oh, dear.
50:31That was so hysterical.
50:33What you found out?
50:34Oh, no.
50:36Right, well, now,
50:37Paul and Debbie,
50:39will you come back, please,
50:40to do some basketball?
50:41Oh, dear, oh, dear.
50:44Come back in here.
50:45I thought you were terrible
50:49until I saw him.
50:54Well, I have to say
50:55that over here,
50:56I'd give them both nine,
50:58both as a magician
50:58and an assistant.
50:59Oh, no, no, no.
51:00No?
51:00The assistant, ten.
51:02Definitely.
51:02The assistant, ten.
51:03All right, then, then.
51:04Definitely.
51:04That'd be nineteen, then.
51:05Yeah, she had a lovely smile.
51:07She did all the time.
51:08So it's ten and nineteen...
51:10Excuse me, excuse me,
51:10when did you start talking?
51:13Since you stopped.
51:15Well, I...
51:16Yeah, right.
51:18Okay, nineteen.
51:19I'll drink to that.
51:20Nineteen points.
51:21There you are.
51:22Very good.
51:23Very good.
51:24Lovely, lovely.
51:25There it is.
51:26Now, over here,
51:27there's a great laugh,
51:28but I have to say,
51:29it wasn't very fooling,
51:31was it?
51:31Yeah.
51:32So, eight each.
51:34Eight each over there,
51:35because that's sixteen.
51:36Just sixteen.
51:37Oh, yeah.
51:37Oh, yeah.
51:41There we are.
51:42But, yeah, look, Paul,
51:43will you do us a favour
51:44and do it just one more time
51:47so that we can try and figure out...
51:48You mean by now
51:49nobody knows how it's done?
51:50You better be kidding.
51:51I'll do it again.
51:52I'll just...
51:52For those who weren't tuned in,
51:55I'll do it again
51:56and take you sort of around the back.
51:57Okay, that's fine.
51:58Okay, off you go.
51:59There, if I...
52:00And will you just go over there
52:01and watch this just for a minute?
52:02Okay, fine.
52:03Okay, good.
52:04Now then, this time...
52:06This time,
52:07you're going to see the illusion
52:09from the back,
52:10which means all you viewers
52:12will be able to see
52:13just how it's done.
52:16We're ready now
52:16for Paul Daniels,
52:18take four.
52:26Now then, ladies and gentlemen,
52:27this is the first time
52:28you've seen this again.
52:29Ha-ha.
52:29Now, you will notice
52:30that I'm facing the backdrop.
52:32Imagine there's a vast audience
52:33out there
52:33and you will be taken backstage
52:35to see the illusion.
52:37Now, what I do is
52:38I open up the door like so
52:39and I give it to Rosemary
52:40like so
52:41and Debbie sneaks around there.
52:43Of course,
52:44the audience doesn't see that
52:45and so when I open this door
52:47and open it wide like so,
52:49the audience can now see
52:50right through the cabinet.
52:51Please come and join me,
52:52I say,
52:52as you can see
52:53how thin the walls are,
52:54how thin the roof is
52:55and indeed,
52:56how thin the floor is.
52:57Now, not only that,
52:58I'm about to close
52:59this door over here.
53:00So, again,
53:02Debbie makes a funny little move
53:03like this
53:03and we put the wedge
53:04back in there.
53:05Remember,
53:06the audience is viewing
53:07in this direction
53:08so I say to them,
53:09ladies and gentlemen,
53:10if I close this door over here
53:11and now you've seen
53:13the back and the front
53:13of both of the doors,
53:15have you not?
53:15You have indeed,
53:16but there's one more thing
53:17that I must show you
53:18and that's around here
53:20and down here
53:21we have got this flap
53:22and the flap enables you
53:24to see just how thin
53:25the table is.
53:26You see that?
53:27Now, you can see
53:29that that's a fairly true comment.
53:31Now, what we do now,
53:32ladies and gentlemen,
53:32is point out
53:33you've seen the front
53:33and the back of both doors.
53:35You've seen how thin
53:35the table is.
53:36You've seen these things
53:37here on the side
53:37to prevent anybody
53:38getting in the side.
53:39But with the aid
53:40of the magic wedge
53:41which I removed
53:42from the cabinet,
53:43I will now show you
53:44the right person
53:45in the cabinet.
53:45Thank you so much
54:05for being with us
54:06on this special night.
