The Big Trip (2)

“Welcome back”, said Holly, “to our Final game, where once again we’re giving away, not one, not two but three trips to remember for a lifetime. And just like last week, all our studio Audience are contestants for this one, Are you ready guys?”

The Audience cheered as Holly continued, “Every seat in our studio is equipped with a numerical keypad. I’m going to asks a question and the three audience members with the three closest answers win our three trips! This week we once again have three amazing trips on offer.”

A video starts playing both on the big screen in the studio but also for the audience at home. For first place, the winner gets a weeks holiday for two to the incredible island of Cuba, staying at a **** resort, all expenses paid with £1000 spending money. For second place, the winner also gets a island adventure, they will be taken to a small island in the middle of a lake, not more than 20meters wide, where they will be staying for the week. They will be provided with basic camping supplies and every day a boat will come over to deliver a days worth of food and pick up their rubbish. Of course space is limited, so all their luggage will remain here with us in the studio.

Finally for the third place, the winner gets a trip to nowhere right here in the studio. They will be tied to our trip trolley (the video shows a flat trolley with two poles sticking up) and get a tour around our studio where you will experience an entire holiday in just a few minutes. And of course, your luggage will be going straight in THE DESTROYER’. Any one of these three trips could be yours if you’re lucky enough tonight.

“So there’s your risk”, explained Holly, “Do you try for first place but risk just falling short, or do you play it safe and intentionally get it totally wrong? No time to discuss it, you have twenty seconds to answer the following question, In Kilometres, not feet or meters but kilometres, what is the radius of the moon? Your twenty seconds starts now!”

The audience members are trying to decide not only what is a reasonable guess but also if they even want to make a reasonable guess as the clock ticks down, you can see various couples & groups discussing the options.

“Times up!” shouted Holly, “If you’ve not voted, then why bother coming onto the show, you should be ashamed of yourselves SHAME, SHAME, SHAME! Let’s ignore the cowards, we have got the answers from the rest of you and now let’s reveal in no particular order who our top three are.”

The three people join Holly on stage, all looking like they were already regretting their risk.

“You lucky three are all set for a trip of a lifetime.” teased Holly, “Now the correct answer was as everyone knows 1738km. You three got the closest, so you three get to enjoy one of our amazing trips. First of all for second place, our second place winner gets to enjoy that lovely week of peace and quiet on our own non-luxury island. You ill be taken there straight way, so no time for a change of clothes or even to say goodbye. And our winner of a week of peace and quiet is……
