It is time for Dick Ball!
Baby Dick over here is going to be the football in this game.
Over here we have got the two teams.
Samuel in the red, and we have also got Keith in the red.
They should be called the Leamington Drizzles.
- Over here we have got team number two, Danny. Hello, Danny. - Hello.
And we have also got Phoebe. You are the Battenburgs, OK?
Hang on, you can't play the game with a dummy in your mouth. Great.
OK, let's go over here.
And your game starts...now.
Well, here we go. Dick is wearing a nappy for personal reasons.
- Look at them go. - That is absolutely scandalous.
I don't know what he is doing, doing that.
They came in hard, they came in not fair.
- They should be penalised for it, John. - It is all to play for.
He is stuck in the middle of the pitch there.
Oh, lovely defending though, Brian.
Well, you say that, but as somebody who has never played the game,
and don't know it,
what I would saying is, stop giving it that, and look at the game.
Power down!
They have now got to power down and get him back on, John.
- How do you feel about that uniform? - The nappy? - Yeah.
I think it frees up the big ball, it allows him more space,
more width, and width is a very important thing, John.
That's right. And there's a crunch there into the side.
It is a very hard fought battle in midfield.
Aggressive from Keith, and from Danny. Both dads pretty angry.
What you've got to look at there, very good defending.
Very good defending from the Leamington Drizzles.
Power down!
- These two teams very much equal really. - It is very tight.
Nobody is letting anybody leave.
That is possibly why he chose to wear the nappy today.
- I understand. - That's a multiple 360 there for Dick. Off he goes.
What I would like to see
is a bit more aggression in the game, like that, John.
- That is what I am after! - Hang on. - A bit more of that.
- Danny is taking it to the line. - It's going to be a goal. - Oh, lovely!
Supreme attacking ability, John. That's what I like to see.
The Leamington Drizzles just could not hold him back.
Interesting to see how they line up,
whether they throw caution to the wind
- and go after the counter-attack. - Yes.
- Or whether they play it safe. - Off we go.
These final seconds here, I think we're looking at a victory.
It is very good defending.
- You can see the sweeper coming round at the back, John. - Very good.
- There he is. Ready. That's it. - That's it!
That's the end of the game. And the winners are the Battenburgs!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Baby Dick's got his nappy stuck.
LAUGHTER
Well, look at this! Was it a sensible outfit to wear?
- Have you soiled yourself? - I'm stuck to it!
LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
- I hope that's not skidmarks! - 'This could end messily.'
Naughty baby! Naughty!
'I don't know what he's doing at all, but it's an absolute shambles.'
Phoebe, congratulations.
You're the winner of the next Golden Hoopla Hoop!
CHEERING
Three, two, one. Hoopla!
Clowns, take her away.
We'll see you later in the Finale-ival. Goodbye!
- What are you doing? - Eh?
And now to something even more entertaining.
It shouldn't be possible. It's John Kimmons!
Thank you. My name's John Kimmons and I'm a ventriloquist.
- Do you know what a ventriloquist is? - ALL: Yeah!
I haven't got a puppet with me today. Very sorry about that.
So I thought what I could do is use one of you as a puppet in the show.
But I'm sorry, the costume's been made a little bit too big.
It will only fit a fully grown man.
I've got a gentleman there who looks very keen.
Give him a big round of applause.
- APPLAUSE - Oh, look at that. He's actually coming out.
It's good when you're on telly, they actually come out.
Come on, join me. Join me. That bloke's gutted, look!
That bloke is gutted. You thought it was going to be you, didn't you?
It's all right. I've got two. You can come as well.
Give him a nice big round of applause.
- APPLAUSE - It's like sports day at the nursery school. We're all winners.
OK, come and stand over here, sir. Let's find out who these people are.
Come a bit closer, sir. What is your name, sir?
- John. - John? My very favourite name. Your name, sir? - Nicky.
Nicky and John, OK.
I've a little mask for you here. It's a little mask.
If you stand about here, John. Stop backing off!
Nice and far forward. You're in the show now.
That goes on there. Beautiful, beautiful.
This fits on the facial area,
near the nasal region. There we go.
Let me see. Let's make you a bit more comfortable.
- Is that OK, John? - Oh, yeah! Yeah, yeah!
- Are you OK? - Oh, yes. I'm excited now, yes.
So am I!
- Give everyone a wave over there. - Hello! Hello, ladies! All right?
Hello, ladies!
- I like the ladies! - Oh, really? He likes the ladies. - I know, yeah.
I like all the pretty ladies!
Hey, all right, John. Don't worry, Nicky.
I'm not missing you out. I've got one for you.
Oh, beautiful! Look at that.
Let's try that on. Look at that. Beautiful. That fits on there.
Fantastic. Look at that.
Oh, I nearly forgot!
I have this as well. Now...
LAUGHTER
Come here, Nicky. It's all right, I'm not going to make anybody
wear this. It's a bit uncomfortable.
Very hot under these lights. It's moth-eaten and flea-ridden.
Nobody wants to wear this.
I do!
LAUGHTER
- Really? - I do, I do, I do!
- Please? Me, me, me! - Really?
Yeah, yeah!
Oh, it's going to bring back so many memories!
MANIC LAUGHTER
Hee-hee-hee! Ha-ha-ha!
- Ooh, you're making me laugh. - Good!
- In this case, literally. - Yeah!
Come a bit closer, Nicky. Let's try that on there. Fantastic.
Oh, look at that.
Yeah, beautiful, beautiful! I've always wanted to be ginger!
- Again. - OK, right.
- Hee-hee-hee! - You've gone quiet, John.
I know, yeah.
I'm just checking out the ladies. All right?
John, we haven't got long. We've got to hurry up. He likes the ladies.
I know.
- Do you like the ladies? - Not really, no.
I'm not bothered, no.
- What are you going to do for us then? - We're going to sing a song.
Really?
- Are you doing a song? - Yeah! - Oh, yes! - You as well? - Oh, yeah! Yeah, yeah!
- Are you both singing it? - Yeah! - Yeah! - Yeah! - Yeah!
- Together? - Yeah! - Yeah! - Yeah! - Yeah!
- At the same time? - Oh, yes! - Yeah!
I'm quite keen to see how I do this myself.
Tell you what, let's manoeuvre you into position.
OK, we are going to go for the big song. Are you ready? OK.
- I was born ready. - OK, right.
One, two...
# I like to move it, move it
# I'm too sexy for my shirt
# Too sexy for my shirt... #
Hey, John! You're getting carried away.
Did I count to three then?
You didn't. No, you didn't.
LAUGHTER
- You didn't. - No. You sound like Orville.
I know! You didn't.
Well, we're going to set you both down now.
- No, I want to stay here. - Really?
Yes, I want this to last for ever.
- I want to do a solo. - Yeah?
- So you're going to sing? - Yeah!
- You're not going to sing, are you? - No.
- I'm going to dance. - Oh, really?
- Right, OK. - What are you going to sing?
- I'm going to sing Heads, Shoulders, Knees And Toes. - Oh, right.
You ready? OK. One, two, three.
Yes!

Hold onto your pints really tight and I'm going to get
the mystic mixers out and I'm going to froth them up.
Hold your pint, Terry.
The first one to down their pint and put the empty pint on top
of their head is the winner. Go!
Round Two is called I'm The Best In The World.
You'll hear music and during the instrumental breaks
we'll tell you to act something out.
You'll get points for being really good at it, so be good.
Before we start this round. Terry, sorry,

Just get rid of that. It's all gone, love, it's all gone.
Let's hear the music, please.
