CY$250 Round
Doug: The first round is worth CY$250, the next is worth CY$500, the third for CY$750 -- and if necessary, we play one final round for CY$1250. A game is CY$1500 -- and the winner goes on to the A to Z Round for a possible CY$50,000.
Doug: Now, before the show, we drew straws backstage. And since Jay's sketch of the straw was judged better (light laughter from the crowd) he'll start first with this definition.
Rich: Melanie Chisolm's breasts.
(guys in the audience, of course, cheer)
Doug: And you thought boob questions were reserved for the other show. (audience laughs) Ian, you'll start us off. Give away a letter you do not want.
Ian: Zey
Doug: Interesting way of calling for the last letter of the alphabet. It's not there. Now take a letter you think you can use.
Ian: A
Doug: There are two A's.
Doug: And with the two A's, you have one guess at the solution. Right answer means you win CY$250 and the first round. Definition again -- and it's hard to say it with a straight face -- (light laughter from the crowd) Melanie Chisolm's breasts.
Ian: I have to pass.
Doug: Pasadena -- over to Jay.
Jay: I'll give Ian X.
Doug: No X. Take a letter.
Jay: Take E.
Doug: There is one E -- last letter of the second word.
Doug: Your first chance to win the round. And I have to be honest, the more I reread the definition, the more I like it. (more light laughter from the crowd) Melanie Chisolm's breasts.
Jay: I believe her breasts are... A Spice Rack!
Doug: And I believe you have won the first round.
Doug: By the way, the definition was originally going to be Emma Bunton's breasts. But Jay Lewis, who helps us write the puzzles, talked us into Mel C.
IAN JAY Doug: And I'd like to talk more about breasts -- but the floor director's giving me the "hurry up" signal. So, we'll go to break and play more -- after this.
