How far would you dare to go to win a prize for your family?
Would you do this, this or even this?
I'm The Dare Devil and it's time to push another team to their limits.
# A family I find they dream of a prize
# On courage they draw with hope in their eyes
# All they need do is face each of my dares
# There's revulsion, embarrassment and heart-pounding scares
# So of wishes, wants and temptation, beware
# For the Dare Devil waits with a devilish dare. #
Ah, another wretched band of humans for me to torment.
Who have we here?
Medals, eh. I can see you like to winning, Elspeth.
Hopefully, not today.
And best friend, Robyn. Yes. I've got my eyes on you too!
Urgh, this terrible dancing can only mean one thing. It's the dad.
Who else have we got?
How extraordinary,
It's the mum, Jenny, and bezzy Michelle. Do they ever sit still,
this family?
Let's pay them a visit. To Scotland!
Good day, darelings of Scotland. I've been watching you.
Who are you?
Good question! Some call me the Hairy Orange.
In Spain, I am known as Papa Cobarde,
but you can call me The Dare Devil.
I'm here to offer you the chance to win a lovely prize.
All you must do is complete a few harmless, devilish dares.
- Intrigued? - ALL: Mmmm-hmmm. - Excellent!
There are three devilish dares and three golden doubloons to be won.
Elspeth and Robyn must decide which grownupling does which dare.
Dare devil, dare devil, we dare...
I will give them one doubloon to get them started.
Should someone be too scared to carry out a dare,
then they can exchange it to buy their way out.
But someone must always take their place.
For every dare lost, Elspeth and Robyn will have less time
when they return to my castle, making it harder to open
the Door of Destiny that leads to the final prize.
One last detail. We'll need your team name.
ALL: We're The Raging Reivers!
So, Raging Reivers, it is time to consult, for the first time,
the Scroll of Secrets.
This ancient scroll holds the clue to what the first dare might be.
Elspeth, read it aloud, but remember,
the devil is in the detail!
Your job is as a waiter, in a creepy old place.
Be warned, you can't see your hand in front of your face.
Your job is as a waiter, in a creepy old place.
Be warned, you can't see your hand in front of your face.
I think you have to carry something...
In the dark. Where's dark and scary?
It's time for you to proclaim who you choose for this
first devilish dare.
BOTH: Dare Devil, Dare Devil, we dare Michelle.
Michelle! You are the chosen one for this challenge. Let us depart.
Well, the door has brought us
here to my old stomping ground, Jedburgh Castle.
It's a prison these days, packed with friendly residents.
And it's they who have inspired our first dare, a dare
I like to call Jailhouse Shock!
So, Michelle, this selection of delicious prison food
needs delivering.
Your challenge, Michelle, will be to serve a three-course meal to
each of the three cells, so that's nine dishes in total.
Spill any more than three dishes and it's a fail.
Sounds easy, eh?
Well, did I mention that all this takes place in the dark?
- Pick up the tray. - Good luck, Michelle. - Good luck. - Good luck.
- Make way, make way. - Nice and steady.
What Michelle doesn't know is that in the darkness is my old
school friend, Mr Smiley Bobs.
He's going to make this game a whole lot harder.
- Hope to see you soon. - Bye. - Bye.
Whilst we watch her progress,
Michelle must deliver the first three dishes to cell one.
Can't see, can't see!
- Not easy in pitch darkness. - Go on, Michelle.
OK. Ahhh!
The juice has been knocked over.
That's one life gone,
but Michelle's kept the quiche and the salad on the tray.
Put the quiche down. Good. At least she can deliver the empty glass.
Well done, Michelle.
That's one meal down, two to go, but as yet,
there's still no sign of Smiley Bobs.
Go on, Michelle!
Next into the darkness is haggis, jelly and a warming glass of cocoa.
Remember, Michelle can't see a thing.
- Oh, no! - That's another life down.
- Only one life left. - She can do it.
And her troubles aren't over yet.
It's our old friend, Smiley Bobs.
- Well done, Michelle. - Well done, Michelle.
He's popped his balloon!
With a steady nerve, the jelly gets to its final destination...
..and so does the cocoa.
So, she still has one life left, after two meals delivered.
Come on, you can do this. You know it!
Michelle can only afford to drop one more item on her final tray.
I think one of those cranberries is going to take a tumble,
- don't you? - No, she'll do it.
OK.
Oh, my goodness!
- No! - Oh, my goodness me.
There goes the cranberry juice but it's not game over yet.
Wait, the trifle's survived!
- She can't afford to drop any more dishes. - Go for it, Michelle.
What other lovely surprises are waiting for her inside?
I can't watch.
Mr Smiley Bobs has made another appearance.
Michelle's survived the final fright.
- Can she put the tray down safely? - To your right!
- That's it! That's it! - Yes, yes, yes, yes!
Get out of there now!
Mr Smiley Bobs was no match for steady Michelle.
She's passed the dare!
I'm now bound reluctantly to hand you this golden doubloon.
There we go, girls - well done!
I was scared because I was trying to feel my way.
I was scared I was going to touch someone and it gave me a fright.
If Michelle had failed, I wouldn't have blamed her cos
it's so scary in there.
We just can't wait for the next dare, to see what happens.
They now have two doubloons!
Well, Raging Reivers, let us consult, once again,
the Scroll of Secrets.
Robyn, you read out the riddle this time,
but remember, the devil is in the detail!
When people are in need, you'll be their hero.
But don't go all shy, or you'll end up a zero.
When people are in need, you'll be their hero.
But don't go all shy, or you'll end up a zero.
Is it to do something in front of a crowd?
It could be an acting thing.
You might have to pretend to save someone.
All right, which of your hapless team members will
undertake our second devilish dare?
BOTH: Dare Devil, Dare Devil, we dare Dad.
Well, Dad, let's travel.
Here we are, in a good old-fashioned Scottish market town!
And there's nothing worse, is there, than when we're
loaded down with perfumery and it's a long walk back to the car?
If only there were more kindly people to give us a helping hand.
And it's this idea that has inspired our next dare...
A dare I like to call...
Hero or Zero!
What's the first thing every self-respecting superhero needs?
A cape?
A cape? You're on the right lines!
Lycra!
THEY LAUGH
Yes! I'm afraid in all this fuss, I haven't arranged
anywhere for you to get changed.
- Yeah, that'll do! - OK. - In you go!
THEY CHEER
LAUGHTER AND CHEERING
Well! Tell me, masked man, what is your hero name?
- Dadman! - Dadman! A fine name.
Now I'm going to give you three challenges to try out
on the good people of Kelso.
If you succeed in them all, you will win your team
a golden doubloon.
Come on everybody, let's go!
Doesn't he look faintly ridiculous in his flamboyant costume?
HE LAUGHS
Dadman must wait in position for his first orders.
The girls are in charge of the radio link.
Kids, send the message.
OK, Dad, go and find somebody who needs to cross the road.
GO ON, DAD!
He looks ridiculous. I love it!
Excuse me, fine people of Kelso. Would you cross the road here?
- He's got somebody! - Yes, he's stopping traffic very effectively.
THEY CHEER AND CLAP
That's it - look at the instinctive respect of the local Scottish
driver for a man in a cape.
CHEERING
Well, that's the first challenge passed. Two more to go!
OK, Dad, now you need to go up to somebody with food and see
if it's up to superhero standards.
The Dad must now hunt for someone enjoying their lunch
and inspect their food!
There's somebody over on a bench, I think.
- Over there, Dad. Dad, over there! - That's it. - Yes, go.
- That's it! - He's identified somebody in the act of consumption.
Excuse me, fine lady of Kelso.
I am Dadman and I must inspect that food to make sure to keep you safe.
- Could you hold it out for me? - Yes! He's examining their food.
That is fine for a superhero. Thank you very much.
He's given them the thumbs up. He's succeeded again!
Well done, Dadman!
Well done, Dadman! That was great.
Right, Dadman, you must speak to the citizens
with a speech to stir the heart.
To pass this dare, you must gain applause from this lovely crowd.
Here is your box, here are your words.
- Go to it, big guy! - Go on, Dadman!
Dear people of Kelso, my name is Dadman.
At Superhero Academy, they taught us that no citizen must be left
with their shopping too heavy and their bins are not neatly arranged.
I will not sleep, I will not eat, I will not cease in my quest to
bring happiness, safety and brightly coloured Lycra to your streets.
What do you say, Kelso, are you with me?
SILENCE
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Well, the crowd have gone wild.
Looks to me as if you've passed this dare!
THEY CHEER
Well done, team captains. Here is your golden doubloon.
When I saw the outfit, I thought,
"No way, this is going to be so embarrassing."
I think that was the perfect dare for him.
I could tell he was really nervous, but he did it anyway.
Yeah!
Ah, they've done it again and that means they now have three doubloons!
Right, Raging Reivers, let us once again consult the Scroll of Secrets.
Elspeth, read it aloud, but remember, always,
the devil is in the detail.
That taste in your mouth you'll have to guess,
so hold your nose and don't distress.
That taste in your mouth you'll have to guess,
so hold your nose and don't distress.
- What do you think? - You're going to have to eat something blindfolded,
- cos you won't be able to see. - Not very nice.
Something disgusting, maybe?
All right, team captains,
it's time for you to make your devilish announcement.
Dare Devil, Dare Devil, we dare Mum.
Mum, you have been chosen, as is right and fair.
All right, enough chit-chat. We must depart!
Ah, the mighty River Amazon. Mmm?
Is it not South America? The mighty River Tweed!
People enjoy fishing on this river, a bizarre pastime
that has inspired our next dare.
A dare I like to call Fish and Dips.
Well, the mum, I hear you're a fan of the fish.
Enjoy a little bit of fishy? Little bit of fish?
- No, no, I hate fish! - You hate fish? Oh, well, that's bad news,
because your dare today is to eat five of these lovelies!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
Not really. No, it's much worse than that.
But before we get into our real challenge,
you're going to need one of these...
Well, don't you look dashing in pink?!
Now your real challenge, the mum, is to get these delicious
whitebait - mmm! And dip them into five wonderful flavours.
You must correctly identify three to pass the dare.
- Come on, first one, let's go. - Right, open the mouth!
That's it, you're being fed, it's a whitebait spoon.
- That's it. - Rank! - There we go.
- Anything suggest itself to your mind? - It's cold!
It's cold? It's the flavour we're after, not the temperature!
- No. - No? No idea at all? - Oh, I don't know, soup?
I must press you for a guess. Soup?
It's actually rice pudding with a bit green colouring in there,
but I'm afraid you're wrong.
Time for delicious flavour number two. That's it.
Whitebait spoon again, that's it. Here it comes.
- That's it, take the spoon out of the woman's mouth! - Ahhh!
That's chilli sauce!
It is chilli sauce, so that's one wrong and one right so far!
- Girls, make with the whitebait. - A good dollop.
- That's it, a good dollop. - Excellent.
- OK. - Here it comes.
That's it, take a munch. There we go.
- What is it? - Might be mushroom sauce, mushroom soup?
Some kind of mushroom-based paste or liquid?
It is mushroom soup! That's another one in the bag! Well done.
Well done.
All right, let's get on with our fourth delicious dip.
- A good scoop. - That's it. - Oooh. Ooh, what is that?
There we are! Nice and gloopy.
It looks like glowing glass, doesn't it?
- Quickly! - Take your time! - Oops-a-daisy!
- Mmm! What does that taste of? - That's sweet. - Sweet?
- Strawberry? - Strawberry flavoured? - Strawberry yogurt?
It's not yogurt, it's strawberry sauce.
I'm afraid that's another fail.
That's two passes and two fails, so to win the doubloon,
the mum must correctly guess the final fishy combo.
Now, the mum, this is actually two flavours mixed together. Good luck.
That's it. Scoop a goodly amount up, on that luckless whitebait.
Here it comes.
That's it.
There we go! Oh, she's suffering. Ah, look at that exquisite pain
on her face.
- Mmm, vinegar. - Vinegar is one of the flavours. And the other?
- Chocolate? - Chocolate and vinegar?
Mum, I'm so sorry to have to tell you...
that it was chocolate and vinegar!
CHEERING
You have passed the dare and won yourself
yet another golden doubloon! There you go. Well done, Raging Reivers.
Oh, poor Jenny, I can't believe she had to do that.
The chilli sauce, as soon as it hit my mouth, it went on fire.
We're over the moon.
That's it for the grown-ups. Let's see how they've done!
Guided by Elspeth and Robyn, Team Raging Reivers
have won all their dares.
That great work means they head to the Chambers of Bravery
with maximum time.
CHEERING
Elspeth and Robyn, it's now time for you to take part in the final,
final, final dare! Right, let us depart.
Come in, come in. Welcome to my dungeon.
It's here that you, Elspeth and Robyn, will confront
our final dare. A dare I like to call... Chambers of Bravery 2.0!
There is only one way out of my dungeon...
through the Door of Destiny, beyond which lies the prize.
But the door is locked and will only open
when it hears the correct devilish word.
- Door of Destiny... - The word you seek is...
Elspeth and Robyn must take on my three Chambers of Bravery to find
the clues that will help reveal the word to open the door!
Well, Raging Reivers,
this ramshackle gaggle of grownuplings has
brought you to my dungeon with four doubloons.
Come on, hand over the loot.
Yes, these little beauties will each buy you 15 seconds of time
on top of the one minute that I'm told I have to give you
so that gives you a total of...
..two minutes to complete all three Chambers of Bravery.
- Understand? - Yeah.
Now listen here, if at any point you don't want to do a chamber or
it all gets a bit much, you can shout, "Stop the Dare!"
and we'll get you out.
One of your team-mates can then take your place,
although you will lose ten precious seconds from the clock.
- Understand? - Yeah. - Understood. - Very good.
Then let us confront our first disastrous challenge -
the Hands of Horror!
The first scroll is hidden within my chamber full of fearsome creatures.
There's no time to waste, so you must remain brave.
- What do you suspect lies under the cloth? - Not sure. - No.
What sort of creature do you think is about to crawl or bite
or slither all over you?
- Cockroaches? - Cockroaches, you think?
Well, let me just count their legs. Two, four, six, eight...none!
It's snakes!
Yes, that's right, slithery corn snakes.
- Which of you is going to undertake this challenge? - I am.
Are you indeed, Elspeth? Stoutly spoken.
Now, you have two minutes on the clock.
That's for all three chambers.
All right then, your time starts in three, two, one...
Start the clock!
- Go, Elspeth. - That's it. The scroll is in there somewhere.
Perhaps it's under the skull. Perhaps it's under the snakes.
I think it's under the snakes.
- Alas, poor Yorick. - Robyn, can you see it?
- That's it. - Help her, Robyn.
- Oh, I can see it. - That's it.
Oh, be careful. They can move quickly, when they want to.
Well done, you've recovered the scroll. Congratulations, Elspeth.
How was it with your fingers walking amongst the snakes slithering?
- Slimy! - Slimy's very much the word, isn't it?
Nevertheless, you have succeeded, and now it's time to hot foot
to our next terrifying challenge.
It's the awful Tunnel of Terror!
There are three boxes of grossness to open.
Unlock the first box to gain the key to the second
and then work your way to that precious scroll.
Just remember to keep your mouth shut.
Well, girls, I'm not going to lie to you -
this is going to get messy.
But which of you is going to get messy?
- Who's going to take on this challenge? - Me.
- You, Robyn. Why? - Because I like gunge!
Oh, you like gunge, do you?
Now, here's the key to the first box.
You have one minute, 40 seconds on the clock.
Your time starts in three, two, one... Off you go.
- Go on, Robyn. - Go, Robyn.
- Mmm, would you eat that, Elspeth? - Yes. - Yes, you would.
- Well, Robyn's about to. - Well done, Robyn.
- Have a feel about for the key. - No, other way, other way. - Unusual.
Well done. Very good. That's the key to the second box.
- Push on, push on. - Come on, Robyn.
Here comes box number two.
How peaceful it looks, but not for long.
I can see it grumbling
and now I can see it tumbling!
- Well done. - Have a feel about now.
- That's it, that's it! - Well done, that's the key to the third box.
Robyn's now got the key which will free the scroll in the final box.
Time is ticking, Robyn.
That's it. Ah, lovely. Cover them with cornflakes.
Wonderful. She's got the scroll.
That's it. Make your way out and pass me the scroll.
That's it. Stop the clock!
Well done, Robyn.
Robyn's proved she's not afraid to get messy
and has emerged with the second scroll.
They now have 48 seconds left as we head to the Dome of Doom!
The final scroll is locked in a chest in the Dome Of Doom.
To find the key, you must match the feathers to the picture,
but it's not so easy when they're guarded by terrifying beasts!
- What do you think lurks inside? - Mice.
Mice, you think. Let's see if you're right.
You're not right. It's frogs.
Slimy, slithery frogs. Which of you wants to undertake this challenge?
- Me. - You, Elspeth, very good.
You've got 48 seconds on the clock. Get into position.
Come on, Elspeth, we can do this!
- That's it. - Get your hand through, get your hand through.
Get your hand through the hole. Very good. Time is ticking.
Don't worry about the frogs jumping around all over the place.
- That's it, look at the picture. - No, no.
See if you can match up the pattern of feathers.
- No, not that one. - Well done, Elspeth. Good job.
- Is it this one? - No, no. - Yes, yes. - Try it. - Give it a try.
Just 30 seconds to go.
- Lift the lid. - Turn the key properly.
- Lift the lid. - I can't!
Turn the key first, then lift the lid. Well, it's open.
- Anything else in there? - Get the scroll!
- That's it. - Just open it.
- Grab the scroll. - Then you're out.
Ten seconds. Nine, eight...
- Well done, Elspeth! - Yes!
It was disgusting, wasn't it?
Nevertheless, you overcame your fear and grabbed the scroll.
Now you've got the maximum chance. All three scrolls, all three clues.
Let's take them now and try
and solve the riddle at the Door of Destiny!
It's time to read out your clues and solve the riddle.
- 'These slow mini-beasties have tiny tentacles.' - What could that be?
- I think it's going to be under water. - Under the sea.
All right, here's your second scroll.
Robyn, you read out this one.
'They're healthy eaters and they hate salt.'
Slow beasties, tiny tentacles, hate salt.
- They're not going to be in salt water, though. - No.
So not under the sea any more.
All right, let's add your third clue
and see if that helps you find your way to the right answer.
OK, hold these.
'If you're friendly, you may bring them out of their shell.'
If you're friendly, you may bring them out of their shell.
Oh, snails.
- I think so. - I think it's snails.
Well, if you do, then it's time to confront the Door of Destiny
and speak your password!
Door of Destiny...
..the word you seek is...
..SNAILS.
DOOR SHUDDERS
Yes! You've done it, Raging Reivers!
I hate to say it, but you have defeated me.
Come on, join your team captains. Come on, grown ups.
Well, it's been a long day.
Now be off with you and claim your prize.
Oooo, the irreverence!
Well, that's the last time I listen to you.
Those dares were way too easy.
What have you got to say for yourself? Yes, exactly!
Anyhoo, fearless children and adults beware,
for the Dare Devil waits with a devilish dare!
