Cheat

Lying little weasels, the lot of ya!

They're just absolute scumbags.

This is Cheat. The only quiz show where you can cheat your way to a fortune.

-Strawberries. -Nando's.

-Las Vegas? -

- -You absolute wrong'uns.

Three rounds of questions.

A jackpot of over £50,000.

Guys, you are killing me!

And one unique twist.

If you don't know the answer...

Which cheese is in tiramisu?

...just hit your secret Cheat button, and all will be revealed.

Mascarpone.

- You better have a good poker face. -It's Hamilton.

Your opponents can accuse you of cheating after every question.

I can't take it!

It's the ultimate battle of brains, blagging, and bare-faced lying,

and only the last player standing will take home the cash.

-It all comes down to one epic... -

-"Cheat" is the cry! -...head-to-head...

-The C-bomb has been dropped! - Ooh!

...sudden death test of nerve!

Did they cheat?

The most ruthless final in the history of the game show.

Oh my God!

Drama!

This is a hell of a game.

Let's Cheat!

For the very first time, welcome to Cheat,

the brand-new quiz where you're literally welcome to cheat.

But before we meet the players,

let me introduce the Queen of Cheat who'll be asking all the questions.

She's my favorite treacle in the world,

it's Ellie Taylor.

Danny, you say that to all the treacles, I bet.

Ellie, are you ready to meet some of the dirtiest quizzers in history?

Bring it on, baby.

Right, Devan, Jess, Yasmina, Mark,

welcome to Cheat.

Mark!

- All right, mate? -Oh dear! Oh dear!

Hi!

- -That's better!

- There we go! -Hey!

You're an NHS project manager.

You've also got a degree in international relations.

Speak other languages and all that, can you?

Yeah, so I did two summers studying in South Korea.

Oh well!

But it's been a while, so I'm a bit rusty.

Well, for our international audience,

and there will be, you know, Netflix, can you say "cheat" in Korean?

Annyeonghaseyo. Sog-ida!

Sog-ida!

I love that!

Yasmina!

Hello. How are you?

You're a fashion designer?

I am, yeah.

Do you think this lot will be able to spot you cheating?

Uh, probably.

-Oh. -I don't have a poker face, so maybe.

Well, you've definitely come on the wrong show, so great! Great work!

Jess!

All right, sweetheart?

-Oh! - Oh!

So, you're an English teacher from London.

Any good at blagging?

Um, I'm an educated waffler for a living. That's what I get paid to do.

I'd like to think I'll be able to cheat my way through if I need to.

So, you lie to children?

In an educated way, yes.

- Devan. -How's it going, Danny?

-Yeah, look at him! -Good to see you, Ellie.

-Look at him! -Look how buff he is!

-Look at the geezer! -Oh, you're too nice!

Devan, are you quite brainy?

Uh, I work as a cosmetic dentist.

Well, fingers crossed there's a whole round on molars later.

-Fantastic! Right up my street. - You're a shoo-in.

Perfect. Perfect.

Right. Good luck, everyone.

-Thank you. -May the biggest brain win.

Or the slipperiest sog-ida!

So,

it's time to play our first money builder round.

Ellie, tell us more.

Each player will face four questions,

which will appear on the screens in front of them.

If they don't know the answer,

they just need to give their secret cheat button a little tap,

and the correct answer will be revealed.

Correct answers add £1,000 to the group jackpot.

Any wrong answers will lose them a grand.

So if they don't know the answer, it's best to cheat.

But they need to do it wisely, as the other players can hit their buzzers

to accuse them of cheating after every question.

Spotting cheats correctly is hugely important,

as the most accurate cheat hunter goes straight through to the next round

and gets to eliminate the player of their choice.

Let's get cheating, shall we?

Right. Fingers on buttons.

Let's Cheat!

Devan, you're going first, and all eyes are on you.

In fact, they can't miss ya!

Because look at the size of that nut on that screen!

-Cor, look at those teeth! -It's a... Yeah!

I need my sunglasses. Crikey!

-Over to you, Ellie. -Devan...

Gavin and Stacey.

- - Correct.

Is he "Gavin" us on?

No accusations.

Very trusting. Love it.

Okay. Next question, Ellie.

Jess.

Orange.

-Correct. -Any accusations?

- - Is it a juicy lie? Mark's in!

And Devan! Ooh, okay.

Interesting.

Mark, what was it?

I'm just not sure how much Jess loves oranges.

- Really? -

There's something about it. I'm like, "That's pretty specific orange knowledge."

I think that's absolutely ludicrous, Mark!

Okay, we got two grand in the pot.

It's the first accusation. Gotta get these right.

Only the best cheat hunter is guaranteed a place in the next round.

Next question, Ellie.

Yasmina.

John Lewis.

- - Correct.

- -Oh! Devan's come in!

I don't think you've been in John Lewis that much.

-I've just got a... I don't know, maybe. -Is it because I'm a fashion designer?

-Because people think I don't, but... -Maybe you design better clothes.

-I don't know. -I don't know.

Has he done his accuracy a favor? We'll find out at the end of the round.

Next question, Ellie.

Mark.

Boxing.

- - Correct.

- Devan's straight in. -No way!

-No way! -Yasmina fancies it as well.

I love boxing, actually.

I believe ya. I reckon you can hold your hands up.

I'm a lot scarier than I look, Danny.

- I know. That's what I'm saying. -True!

-Nutting people left, right, and center! -

Okay, we'll find out at the end of the round

if it was a cheat.

Four questions down, 12 to go.

Devan.

Poland.

- - Correct.

They're all believing you.

Must be that handsome nut.

- - Danny, you're obsessed!

Get a room. Crikey!

Next question.

Jess.

Uh, UK Drag Race.

- - Correct.

Oh, it's a full house!

"The cheek, the nerve,

the gall, the audacity, the gumption,"

as is said by Tayce on UK Drag Race.

-Oh wow! - That is amazing.

She got it! I take it back.

After that, you're all in detention.

-Yeah. - Oh no.

Six grand in the pot.

Yasmina.

ABBA.

- - Correct.

Mark?

Yeah, I'd say you're maybe not ABBA's target demographic. A bit too young.

And not gay.

Now, since when needing to be gay was part of the criteria to like ABBA?

The gays own ABBA.

-Hmm. -

Right, if that's true, my mum has got some questions to answer!

Mark.

Jason Momoa.

- - Correct.

-Very excited about that one, wasn't ya? -Yeah.

I love Game of Thrones.

No one has accused ya.
