Series 6, Week 17, Day 5

Every day this week, celebrity contestants Jasmine Harman, Dave Johns, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb and Jason Mohammad take on a series of quiz rounds selected by the host, quiz legend Richard Osman.

A daily winner is declared following a quickfire round at the end of each show, and the scores are tallied across the week, resulting in an overall champion being crowned on Friday.

Will the winning stars opt for the much-coveted House of Games suitcase, or will they be tempted with the House of Games decanter?

00:00Hello, everybody. Happy Friday. Something's different, isn't it? Something looks different.
00:13What has happened? I'll tell you what's happened. My local balloon shop has shut down, and they
00:18had balloons going cheap. I just had to buy as many as I could. No, it is our 500th show.
00:23Look at that. How about that? Bloom arch, that's what you do for 500. It's universally
00:28recognised. 500th show, however, we still have some very, very important business, because
00:34we have three people, possibly four, mathematically, who could still win this trophy right here on
00:40the 500th House of Games. Who are they, these lucky people? What a day to be here. It is
00:47Jasmine Harmon. Hello, and congratulations on your 500th episode. Thank you, and also
00:53I believe it is your fifth episode. It is. So, congratulations to you. Thanks. Jason Muhammad,
00:58Hello, Richard. Susanna Lipscomb. Hello. And Dave John. Hello, one. Hello, all. I don't
01:05know how we got to 500th shows, but anyway, that's our business. We have more important
01:09business to be getting on with, which is we've got a trophy to give away, and if we take a
01:13look at the leaderboards, we can see that this is worthy of a 500th show, because Jasmine,
01:20Jason and Susanna all within two points for each other, and it is, of course, double points
01:25Friday. Eight points for a win, six for second, four for third, two points for fourth place.
01:30Susanna, Jason, Jasmine, if any of you win, then you're going to find yourself very much
01:34at the top of that leaderboard. How are we feeling? Jasmine, two wins for you. If you make
01:39it three today, you're going to be our champ. I'm feeling the pressure, actually, but I've
01:43got my lucky earrings on, so fingers crossed. Lucky earrings. So, because Jason almost wore
01:47his lucky earrings. I know. She's unstoppable in the last round. That's the thing. What I
01:53need to do is, I've thought about this from a sporting perspective. Yes, good. I need to
01:56get off to an early start. Early start, absolutely. Get in there, get stuck in early on, and then
02:01hopefully have an unassailable lead. Susanna, trophy up for grabs, of course, but there are
02:05also prizes on this final day, and here are the prizes. You'd think they'd get better
02:10on the 500th show. They don't. If anything, they'd get worse. But you could win the espadrilles,
02:15the dog bowl, or cat bowl. There's the shoehorn, the pasta maker, or the decanter. Actually,
02:20not some bad prizes there. What would you go for, Susanna, do you think?
02:23Decanter, definitely. I've got a pasta maker and I've never used it. Yeah. Decanter, though.
02:28What prize would you go for, Dave? I'd love to give you a prize today. I would go for the
02:33shoehorn. The shoehorn, yeah. Listen, do you know what, Dave? The only people to go for
02:38shoehorn are people of over 50, and we're like, oh, my goodness, a shoehorn? Yes, please.
02:44Listen, I've got enough decanters. I'd love a shoehorn. Jason, what would you go for?
02:48Scenes, if I walk into the gym in your house of games espadrilles, would be incredible.
02:52Well, it would be. On a Friday. However, I've got two dogs at home, Barney and Theo.
02:56They'd love the balls. Oh, that'd be nice. Jasmine? Well, I'm tempted to say the decanter,
03:00but, you know, if I do win again, I'm going to take the shoehorn and I'm going to give
03:05it today. Oh, lovely. That's nice. There's the love in the room.
03:08That is it. You know, a lot of love in the room. There's the love in the room.
03:11Shall we get on, see who's going to be our champion this week on House of Games?
03:15Our first round on our 500th show is...
03:19Rhyme time. Fingers on buzzers, please. Two questions at a time.
03:24The answers rhyme with each other. Here are your first two.

03:51Well done. Dave, you're currently in the lead.

04:27What a day. Casablanca, Sri Lanka.
04:29Next question.

05:14Big fan of his work.
05:15Yeah, he's good, that guy.
05:16He's good. He's good.

05:42Another point to Dave.
05:43Next two questions.
05:50And silk structure spun from an arachnid's spinneret.
05:57Dave.
05:58Zagreb, spider's web.
06:00Where's this guy been all week?
06:01Dave John's on fire.
06:04He's really excited about that shoehorn.
06:07You should have put the shoehorn on every day.
06:10If you told me at the start of the week
06:11that all you wanted was a shoehorn,
06:13I would have got you one.
06:15Well played.
06:16This guy can rhyme.
06:17Zagreb, spider web.
06:18Final question in this round.

06:29And a disreputable moneylender operating outside the law.
06:35Yes, Susanna.
06:37Kenneth Clark, loan shark.
06:39Kenneth Clark, loan shark?
06:41That's a head of a series.
06:44Kenneth Clark, loan shark there.
06:46That's the end of that round.
06:48Let's take a look at our first leaderboard on our 500th show.
06:52Jasmine, two-time champion.
06:54Zero points at the moment.
06:55Susanna, you've got one.
06:57Jason, you've got two.
06:58Dave John's in the lead with four points.
07:00How about that?
07:00Very good.
07:01Here we go.
07:02Very good.
07:03Let's play our final pairs game of the week, shall we?
07:05Our 500th pairs game ever.
07:07It is...
07:08Tote's emoji.
07:13Jasmine, you get to choose a partner.
07:15Who would you like to play this with?
07:16OK.
07:16Who have I been with?
07:18Have I been with you?
07:18I think everyone's been with everyone.
07:19You've been with everyone now.
07:20Yeah, we've been together.
07:21All right.
07:21I'm going to go back to my original partner in crime.
07:24I'm going back to Dave.
07:25Susanna and Jasmine, if you'll swap places, please.
07:27Yeah.
07:28Susanna and Jason are a team.
07:30Dave and Jasmine are a team.
07:33Now, before the show, I asked you all to send me the name of a novel,
07:35but in the form of emojis.
07:37Could be the name, could be the plot, whatever it is,
07:39but a clue to a novel.
07:40Susanna, before the show, Jason sent me the following emojis.
07:45You have to work out which novel he is hinting at for you.
07:48OK.
07:49So, which novel is this?
07:53OK.
07:55So, what are we...
07:55So, well, we've got a picture and we've got a door and a face.
08:00I'm not sure if I'm searching for a title or if I'm looking at a plot,
08:04so I'm just trying to...
08:06What do you think at home?
08:06Have you got this one?
08:07Have you got a guess?
08:11Say what you see.
08:14Photo, picture, frame.
08:19Shall we time you out?
08:20Yeah.
08:21What do we think it is on the other team?
08:22Can I have a go?
08:22It's room with a view.
08:24Oh, I had a different answer.
08:26So, tell you what I thought it was.
08:28The picture of Dorian Gray?
08:30Oh!
08:30The picture of Dorian Gray.
08:32That's so clever.
08:33Give my best.
08:33I thought if you went, that's a picture, that's a door, that's grey hair.
08:38That's very clever.
08:40Well done if you've got it at home as well.
08:41Picture of Dorian Gray.
08:44Dave, before the show, Jasmine sent me some emojis,
08:47which would hopefully lead you to a novel.
08:49You're an emoji fan, Dave?
08:51Well, I didn't know what one was until today.
08:53But, yes.
08:54Now you are.
08:55Now I am.
08:56I'm a big emoji fan.
08:57Now, what novel is Jasmine hinting at here?
09:06Hmm.
09:08OK.
09:09Say what you see.
09:10Are you still a fan of emojis, Dave?
09:13Um...
09:14The Hound of the Baskervilles.
09:17Yeah!
09:19Wow!
09:20Wow.
09:22Is that a basket or a French villa?
09:24A villa.
09:25Oh, a villa, of course, which is your speciality.
09:28Yeah, yeah.
09:28Um, Hound Basket Villa.
09:31Hound of the Baskervilles.
09:32Hound of the Baskervilles.
09:33Wow.
09:34Well played and very well done if you got that at home as well.
09:36And very well played, Dave.
09:37Jason.
09:38Hello.
09:38For the show, Susannah sent me the title of a novel.
09:41Did she now?
09:42Um, using just emojis.
09:44I wonder if you can decipher what this novel is from the clues she gives.
09:49Oh, what?
09:52I'm not sure you've got enough emojis in there, Susannah.
09:55It's good.
09:55It feels like the plot, maybe, as opposed to the title.
09:57So that's quite fun.
09:59Is it that famous novel, New York drinking, dollar coffin, row the boat home?
10:04Yeah, that book.
10:05Went to number one.
10:07Yeah, that's hard.
10:09Yeah.
10:10Yeah.
10:11Really hard.
10:12Hmm.
10:13You've got a guess at home on this one.
10:18Shall we time you out, Jason?
10:20Yeah, I'm awfully sorry, Susannah.
10:22Any guesses on the other team?
10:24The Great Gatsby.
10:25Is it The Great Gatsby?
10:26It is The Great Gatsby.
10:27The Great Gatsby.
10:28Well done.
10:29That's the kind of world of it, isn't it?
10:30I was like, how do I do the names?
10:31I was trying to do the plot, so cocktails and parties and the green light and then the boat.
10:36Great Gatsby.
10:37Very well done if you said that at home.
10:38Final question of the round.
10:40Jasmine, Dave has hinted at a novel in emoji form, but which novel?
10:49So that looks like butter.
10:51Hmm.
10:54Have you got it, Richard?
10:56No, if it's what I think it is.
10:57Yeah.
10:58Then it's one of the great all-time puns.
11:02Oh, mate.
11:03Judging by Dave's little giggle, I think it is.
11:06What do you think at home on this one?
11:08Hmm.
11:08You got it?
11:09Maybe it's not butter.
11:11Maybe it's cheese.
11:12Maybe it's bread.
11:15I'm stumped.
11:17Yeah.
11:18Should we time you out?
11:19Yeah.
11:20I'm sorry, Dave.
11:21Any clues on this team?
11:24See, I think I know what it is.
11:25It's a pun.
11:25Dave, I'm going to let you take the credit.
11:27It's Lard of the Rings.
11:29Oh!
11:29Oh, gosh!
11:32Lard of the Rings.
11:34Oh, that's brilliant!
11:36The Lord of the Rings.
11:37You know what?
11:38It's worthy of the 500th show.
11:40Thank you, mate.
11:40Lard of the Rings.
11:42I'll take that, Richard.
11:43That's the end of the round.
11:44Jasmine and Susanna, if you could swap back, please.
11:47Yes, please.
11:48And let's take a look at our round two leaderboard.
11:58Jasmine and Susanna have one point each.
12:00Jason has got two points.
12:01Dave John's still out in the lead with five.
12:05Tell you what, 500th show.
12:07Is it shoehorn time?
12:09Three rounds to go.
12:10Our next round is...
12:15Elephant in the Room.
12:17Fingers on buzzers, please.
12:18Before I ask a question,
12:19I'm going to show you what the elephant in the room is.
12:23It is the word eel.
12:25So I'm going to ask you some questions.
12:27You have to give me the answer
12:28without using the word eel, please.
12:32So if eel appears anywhere in the answer,
12:34in the middle of a word or anything,
12:36get rid of it and just tell me the rest of the answer.
12:38So, answer me this, please.
12:40Don't say eel.
12:43Which 2013 film starred Henry Cavill
12:46as Superman for the first time?
12:47That is Susanna.
12:53Man of St.
12:54Man of St.
12:56Well played.
12:57Steel becomes Man of St.
12:59Absolutely right.
13:01Next one.
13:02What is the title of this song?
13:04Yes, Jason.
13:11I've got a...
13:11I've got a thing.
13:15I've got a thing.
13:16You certainly do.
13:16That's exactly right.
13:17Black Eyed Tees.
13:18I've got a feeling becomes I've got a thing.
13:21Next one.
13:21Which area of West Bengal gives its name
13:25to a variety of tea known as the Champagne of Tees?
13:27Yes, Susanna.
13:32Dodge Ling.
13:34Not quite, I'm afraid.
13:36Sorry, very close.
13:38Yes, Dave.
13:39Dodge E-ing.
13:41I think you put the first letter on there.
13:43Sorry, I can't take it either.
13:45Oh, my God.
13:45Jason.
13:47Done.
13:49Dodge Ling.
13:51Incorrect, I'm afraid.
13:53You've done exactly what Susanna did.
13:54Yes, Jasmine.
13:55Dodge-ing.
13:56Dodge-ing.
13:57I was looking for.
13:58They put the E on, you both put the L on.
14:01Jasmine.
14:01Dodge-ing.
14:02How was that?
14:03We're dealing without the E-all.
14:04Next question.
14:05Which fashion accessory comprising two springy protrusions
14:09attached to a plastic headband
14:11was invented by Stephen Askin in 1981?
14:18Dave.
14:19D-boppers.
14:19D-boppers?
14:21Absolutely right.
14:22D-y-boppers.
14:23D-boppers.
14:24D-d-boppers.
14:25Next question.
14:27For which song from the Lion King soundtrack
14:29did Elton John and Tim Rice win the 1995 Oscar
14:32for Best Original Song?
14:35Yes, Jasmine.
14:39Can you F the love tonight?
14:42Can you F the love tonight?
14:45It's the right answer.
14:47Can you feel the love tonight?
14:49Final question in this round.
14:52Which term now used to denote self-employed workers
14:54originally referred to mercenary soldiers and their weapons?
15:01That is Jason.
15:03France.
15:03France is right.
15:06Freelance becomes France.
15:08Well done.
15:09Well played, Jason.
15:10End of the round.
15:11Let's take a look at our scoreboard.
15:15So Dave still leads in the battle for the shoehorn.
15:18In the battle for the trophy.
15:20Susanna has two.
15:21Jasmine, three.
15:22And Jason, four.
15:23So it's lovely.
15:23Wow.
15:24I mean, who was going to take it?
15:26Unbelievable.
15:27There's a lot of stories going on in show 500 here.
15:30Two rounds to go.
15:32Two rounds between one of these players and a trophy.
15:35And perhaps another of these players and a shoehorn.
15:38I mean, that literally sums up House of Games.
15:41So thank you.
15:42Round four today is...
15:45Put your finger on it.
15:49If you will take your tablets out, please.
15:51I'm going to show you a series of pictures and ask you to point to something.
15:54Your first picture looks a little bit like this.
15:57So there's your picture.
16:00And I wonder if you could put your finger on the letter Rho.
16:04So these are Greek letters and one of them is the letter Rho.
16:07But which one?
16:11What do you reckon at home on this one?
16:12Do you know your Greek letters?
16:19OK, everyone's in.
16:21Jasmine, how are your Greek letters?
16:27Yeah, I know my Greek letters.
16:30That's good.
16:31You spend a lot of time in Greece, of course.
16:32My mum's Greek, so...
16:34Oh, no.
16:35I should have come to you last.
16:37Which of these do you think is Rho?
16:39It's the one at the bottom middle.
16:41Bottom middle.
16:42This is what?
16:42The jeopardy of the round changes now.
16:44Yeah.
16:44Because it sounds like that was right.
16:47Don't you think?
16:48Right.
16:49So it's a question of,
16:50has anyone else gone where Jasmine's gone?
16:52Jason, have you gone where Jasmine's gone?
16:54No, I went top left.
16:56Top left.
16:57What's that letter?
16:58Theta, I think.
17:00Susanna?
17:00I went with Rho.
17:02Oh, this is looking terrible, Jason.
17:04If one of our most preeminent historians
17:06and someone Greek
17:07have both gone for bottom middle,
17:10you've got to start feeling that's Rho.
17:13Dave, have you gone with Susanna and Jasmine?
17:15Well, because I understand ancient Greek, yes.
17:19I've gone the same one with Jasmine and Susanna.
17:22I mean, this would be one of the all-time great turnarounds
17:24if Jason is right.
17:25Let's find out.
17:28Have you gone with the same one?
17:29You've been pretty smug.
17:30If you have, let's take a look.
17:32Which of those is the letter Rho?
17:35Absolutely bottom middle.
17:37Very well done.
17:38And Jason, you are on Theta, as Jasmine said.
17:42Here is your next one.
17:43I would like you to put your finger on, please.
17:48The drummer.
17:49Which of those gentlemen is the drummer?
17:51Mm.
17:55See, this is more my speciality.
17:58This is...
17:59Boy bands are not my speciality.
18:01Do you know what?
18:02You take that back.
18:03They're not a boy band.
18:04They're a group of sort of post-punk pop superstars.
18:09OK.
18:10I'll take your word for it.
18:11Yeah.
18:14OK, everyone is in.
18:16You got it at home?
18:17Jason, do you know the band?
18:18I think they're McFly.
18:20Absolutely, you're right there.
18:21I think they are.
18:22And do you know the drummer?
18:23No, I don't know the drummer
18:24because I don't know any of the records,
18:26but I play them on Radio 2
18:28and I think it's the chap in the glasses.
18:30You're going for Tom Fletcher.
18:31Tom.
18:32McFly.
18:33Susanna, do you know the drummer?
18:35No.
18:37I went for the guy with the open shirt,
18:39but...
18:40HE LAUGHS
18:41He probably has a name.
18:43He does.
18:43Dougie, you're going for.
18:45OK, we've got Dougie, we've got Tom.
18:47Dave, big McFly band.
18:47Tom.
18:49You're going Tom as well.
18:50We've got Tom Tom,
18:51which is good for a drummer.
18:52HE LAUGHS
18:53Er, and...
18:55Jasmine, where are you?
18:57I went for the guy in the hat.
18:58We went for the guy in the hat.
19:00Dougie as well.
19:00You've gone for Dougie as well.
19:01We've gone double Dougie,
19:02we've gone double Tom,
19:04we've got nothing for Danny,
19:05we've got nothing for Harry.
19:06And now we're ongoing.
19:08Are we giving away two points?
19:10Are we giving away no points?
19:11Let's find out.
19:13It was Harry Judd all along.
19:16Oh, no.
19:17And I've interviewed Tom as well.
19:18It's going to be ugly next time he comes on the radio.
19:20Tom is the senior.
19:20Tom is the front man.
19:22Because he wrote It's All About You, didn't he?
19:24They write all their own stuff.
19:25They're good, McFly.
19:26Are they?
19:26I'll give them a listen.
19:27They are genuinely good.
19:28Great songwriters.
19:29Harry Judd also runs Strictly as well.
19:31Is there nothing he can't do?
19:32Well done if you said that at home.
19:34Let's take a look at our final picture of the round, shall we?
19:39Ho, ho, ho.
19:40That takes me back.
19:41We are looking, please,
19:42for the hole that is used to dial eight.
19:45Do you think I've got the sound of it?
19:46Hello, white or two or two or seven?
19:47Hello, white or two or seven.
19:48That's the kind of...
19:49Do-do-do-do-do-do-do.
19:57Do-do-do-do-do.
19:59Do-do-do-do-do.
19:59My dad used to put a lock on it.
20:01Did he?
20:02So you couldn't.
20:03But then we found if you took the receiver off and you tapped the numbers.
20:06Oh, yeah.
20:07Fast.
20:07As long as it wasn't a no, you could use it.
20:10Ah, clever.
20:11What do you think at home on this one?
20:13It takes us back, doesn't it?
20:14Um, Susanna, too young to use one of these phones, I'm guessing.
20:18No, I remember one of these phones.
20:19OK.
20:19But keep the compliments coming.
20:21Um, they...
20:22So I was trying to decide between two different ones,
20:27but then I'm thinking it would be totally, like,
20:29well, it depends where you put zero, OK?
20:31Yeah.
20:31So I was thinking it's going to be totally logical to make them do it.
20:34You have to do it twice for number one,
20:35so I thought I'd go with the option that I have chosen.
20:38OK, let's see where you are.
20:40So you're thinking eight, nine, zero at the end there.
20:42Uh, Dave, where are you?
20:45I'm, uh, up at the top, near the receiver, the second one.
20:50Yeah, the second one.
20:51From the... Yeah.
20:52I think O is the bottom one.
20:55O, and so that would be eight.
20:57And nine's the last one.
20:59Thank you, Doki.
21:00Jasmine, what are you thinking?
21:01I seem to remember being a kid and thinking,
21:04this is my train of thought,
21:06that if you wanted to dial 999,
21:07it was the longest number to dial,
21:09because you had to go all the way around once and twice.
21:11I'm thinking if there was a murderer in your house or something,
21:14that would take forever to get through.
21:17So I went to the one next to the last one.
21:19Okey-dokey.
21:20So you think nine is at the bottom, so eight is next to it.
21:23And Jason, what are you thinking?
21:24Well, I tried to dial,
21:26and I still remember my then-girlfriend's phone number.
21:29And I still remember to this day.
21:30But she's my wife now, so it's OK.
21:32Oh, that's nice.
21:33I tried to remember how far I went round,
21:39and I remember it at the top.
21:41At the top.
21:42Yeah, that's what I think.
21:43Now you've said that,
21:44I now realise that that bar is across there
21:45and you had to pull it back round rather than the other way.
21:48Because 999 would have been short, 999.
21:51So Jason and Dave are at the top.
21:54We've got Jasmine and Susanna at the bottom.
21:56I'd be at the bottom.
21:58I'd be where Jasmine is, I think.
22:00I think so.
22:01I think 999 was 999 because it was the hardest one to accidentally...
22:04To accidentally dial, like, or if you were a kid like me.
22:07Yeah, exactly.
22:08To, you know, that's the right one.
22:09I think so.
22:09Maybe I'm thinking of another girlfriend,
22:11and I'm in massive trouble.
22:13Who you're not married to.
22:15Isn't it interesting that we've all got different memories of it, though?
22:17Yeah.
22:18What do you think at home on this one?
22:19Where have you gone?
22:19Let's find out, shall we?
22:21Which of those is used to dial eight?
22:23Susanna!
22:27So, Moscow, 8, 9, and 0, Moscow.
22:29Yeah.
22:30Yeah.
22:31There you go.
22:33Learn something new every day, don't you?
22:35Well played, Susanna.
22:37That was a fun.
22:37I like that question.
22:38Yeah.
22:38That's the end of that round.
22:39Tablets away, please, everybody.
22:42But also, anybody under 25 is going,
22:44I'm so sorry, explain to me what you're talking about.
22:47I mean, how did you carry that round?
22:50In your pocket.
22:51How did you take a photo with it?
22:52Selfie with it.
22:54We have one final round to go before we give away our trophy.
22:58Jasmine, Jason, and Susanna were all very, very close to each other
23:02at the beginning of this.
23:02Essentially, if one of them were to win, they would be our champion.
23:05Or we could have a tie, but it would be very close.
23:08Dave, I don't think you can win overall,
23:10but maybe you could with an eight-pointer.
23:11I'm not sure.
23:12But let's take a look at the leaderboard going into our final round.
23:15Now, Dave is in the lead, so he could get the eight points.
23:18Oh, my goodness.
23:20How's that?
23:21Jasmine, Jason, Susanna, four points each.
23:23If I didn't know better, I think the three of you are pranking me
23:25because it's our 500th show.
23:27You want to make it as exciting as possible.
23:29Here we go, then.
23:30One final round.
23:31Is Dave going to get his shoehorn?
23:32And which of these three is going to win the title?
23:36Our final round of our 500th show.
23:38Shall we find out who's going to win the trophy?
23:40It is, of course, Answer Smash.
23:43Good luck, everybody.
