0:00.0	The rest of entertainment is presented by Octopus Energy.
0:02.9	Now, they've looked at admin and decided it should behave much more like a game show. When you provide your meter readings, they will give you a spin of a wheel, which allows you to win prizes, allows you to win octo points, which you can spend in the shoptipus. Yeah, it's the gamifying of the boring bits of your admin. Now, listen, you know how much I love Octopus Energy.
0:21.8	The prizes, I'm going to say, are not quite up to the standard of the Wheel of Fortune.
0:25.9	The biggest ever prize on the Wheel of Fortune.
0:28.4	So over $1 million.
0:31.5	What feels more similar is some of the random prizes they'll get on the Wheel of Fortune.
0:37.0	They've had ceramic Dalmatians. I saw one where you could win a Gucci calculator. You think, okay, that's two of my favorite things. There was an onyx bin. Yeah, I'm not, again, I'm not dissing the prizes, but I would have probably gone for the Dalmatian. None of these things you have to worry about with Oct energy. It is simply octopoints to spend
0:55.3	in the shop to place. Well, you have to submit your meter reading to earn a spin. And then you get

1:03.3	You can get a thousand pound off your bit. If you get the top prize, which is 800,000 octa points,

1:14.2	This episode is brought to you by ITV.
1:16.6	Now, Marina, there is a brand new drama about to appear on ITB1 and ITVX.
1:20.7	It's full of twists and turns, set within the corridors of power, and it's called
1:23.7	Secret Service.
1:25.1	Yes, it is full on espionage with spies, secrets and so much more.
1:29.6	But it ultimately asks the question, what if Russia placed an asset at the very top of the UK government?
1:36.3	The show takes you from the streets of mortar to the very inside corridors of Whitehorn.
1:40.9	It's based on the Sunday Times bestselling book by ITV newsreader, Tom Bradby.
1:45.7	The cast is great. It's got Gemma Arterton, Rafe Spall, who are both incredible actors and no
1:50.5	strangers to starring in mind-bending thrillers. So make sure you don't miss Secret Service
1:54.5	available right now on ITV1 and ITVX.
