0:00:56 > 0:00:58United by a fondness for films,
0:00:58 > 0:01:00they are the Spaghetti Westerners.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Andrew, you beat the Mixologists in your first heat,
0:01:03 > 0:01:05then you lost to the Railwaymen.
0:01:05 > 0:01:06How are you feeling about tonight's game?
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Well, on the basis that it can't go
0:01:08 > 0:01:09any worse than last time,
0:01:09 > 0:01:10we are looking forward to it
0:01:10 > 0:01:12and we are quietly confident.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15That's the spirit. You will be facing, on my left...
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Paul Allen, a civil servant who
0:01:17 > 0:01:19has pulled 22 pints in a minute

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Claire, you lost your first game to the Cluesmiths,

0:01:45 > 0:01:46How did you celebrate victory?
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Well, first of all, we had a lovely
0:01:48 > 0:01:50team trip to Cardiff Castle
0:01:50 > 0:01:51and then we went to the pub.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54I think that shows a broad range of interests.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56Our teams always goes to the pubs in the evenings,
0:01:56 > 0:01:59but usually on a quiz hunt. So, well done.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Let's press on with Round One.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03What is the connection between four apparently random clues?
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Both of these teams have won and lost a game,
0:02:06 > 0:02:08which means the winners tonight are through to the quarterfinals,
0:02:08 > 0:02:10but the loser is going home.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Operational Researchers, you won
0:02:12 > 0:02:13the toss, you are going first.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35- from the Gilmore Girls.- OK.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37So, Lorelai and Rory Gilmore
0:02:37 > 0:02:38have something to do with it?
0:02:38 > 0:02:40I've never heard of it.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42I guess we better go... Next, please.

0:02:52 > 0:02:53Next, please.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56- Gilmore.- Yeah.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59It's Gilmore.
0:02:59 > 0:03:00That is the right answer.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02What can you tell me about the clues?
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Well, Happy Sandler is Happy Gilmore,
0:03:04 > 0:03:05the Adam Sandler film.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08And Stars Hollow is the town in the Gilmore Girls.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- But I don't know the other two. - Do you know
0:03:10 > 0:03:11Captain James Onedin over there?
0:03:11 > 0:03:13He was played by Peter Gilmore in The Onedin Line.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15That's absolutely right.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17And the first one, sports - "hernia",
0:03:17 > 0:03:19that is Gilmore's groin,
0:03:19 > 0:03:21which is something that surgeons
0:03:21 > 0:03:23debate, is it a true hernia?
0:03:23 > 0:03:24That is my kind of debate.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26That is the kind of thing I want to see in Parliament.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28For the hernia, anti the hernia.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31But, yes, Gilmore's groin is what I was hoping to see,
0:03:31 > 0:03:34metaphorically speaking.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Well done, you get one point.
0:03:36 > 0:03:37Spaghetti Westerners,

0:03:52 > 0:03:54Keep thinking on that. Next.
0:03:56 > 0:04:01That is Peter Cushing as Dr Frankenstein, presumably.
0:04:02 > 0:04:03Next.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07That's Olivier and that's Hamlet.
0:04:07 > 0:04:08Oscar winners perhaps?
0:04:08 > 0:04:11- No, it didn't win.- Oscar films... - Olivier, Cushing...
0:04:13 > 0:04:16I can't remember who played FDR.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30- Do you have an answer?- Grave robbers.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32LAUGHING: No.
0:04:32 > 0:04:33Not the answer, I'm afraid.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38Famous Lawrences.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40No. You're looking
0:04:40 > 0:04:41at Laurence Olivier
0:04:41 > 0:04:42playing Hamlet there.
0:04:42 > 0:04:43This is a really tough one. OK,
0:04:43 > 0:04:45we are looking at
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Franklin D Roosevelt,
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Baron Victor Frankenstein,
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Hamlet and Kurt Wallander,
0:04:51 > 0:04:53played by Krister Henriksson.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56These are all roles that have also been played by someone else.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57Kenneth Branagh.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Kenneth Branagh played FDR
0:04:59 > 0:05:01in the HBO series Warm Springs.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10And Wallander in the remake in
0:05:10 > 0:05:12English roles of Kenneth Branagh.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14So you don't get the bonus,

0:05:17 > 0:05:20- We will have the Horned Viper, please.- The Horned Viper.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21The music question!

0:06:07 > 0:06:09I'll take it, yes. Horrible weather.
0:06:09 > 0:06:10I mean, it's not just weather,
0:06:10 > 0:06:12we heard Tsunami
0:06:12 > 0:06:15by the Manic Street Preachers. What else did you recognise?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17That was the one we recognised.
0:06:17 > 0:06:18It was Take That, wasn't it?
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Take That, The Flood.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Bob Dylan, Hurricane. And then Heat Wave, Martha Reeves.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24I suppose a heat wave isn't that
0:06:24 > 0:06:25horrible. Maybe that is good weather.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27It depends on your point of view.
0:06:27 > 0:06:28But extreme weather, anyway.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Or perhaps occasionally disastrous.
0:06:30 > 0:06:31Well done, a point to you there.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33And back to the Westerners

0:06:51 > 0:06:53It...

0:06:58 > 0:07:00- Possibly.- Possibly. Next.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05- Chimpanzee...- Eight metres. That can't be.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08How far they can jump or something like that?
0:07:08 > 0:07:09Oh, it's their gestation periods,
0:07:09 > 0:07:11- I would think.- Yes. You're right.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16These are the gestation periods in months of those animals.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18They are gestation periods.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20You didn't need to see the last one,
0:07:20 > 0:07:21human - nine months.
0:07:21 > 0:07:22Of course, sometimes by the magic
0:07:22 > 0:07:24of television, a person could be
0:07:24 > 0:07:26in their third trimester for the best part of seven months.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29On and on, week after week after week.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31But nine months is when
0:07:31 > 0:07:32it is all supposed to stop.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Last choice of the round for you,

0:07:35 > 0:07:37- Water, please.- Water.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41What is the connection between these clues? Here's the first.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48It could be the date they're formed. Next, please.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51- Good God, I don't know. - I don't know.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54It's the end of the war.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58Is it black? Like Black Monday?
0:07:58 > 0:08:00I don't know. Next, please.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06He is like a sort of blues singer.
0:08:06 > 0:08:07Yeah.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12HE WHISPERS
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Next, please.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Oh, he nearly dies in a plane crash.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19Three seconds.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23Is it people that nearly died in a plane crash?
0:08:23 > 0:08:24But didn't get on the plane?
0:08:24 > 0:08:26I can't accept it, I'm afraid.
0:08:26 > 0:08:27Spaghetti Westerners, you want
0:08:27 > 0:08:28to have a go for a bonus point?
0:08:28 > 0:08:32People who nearly died in a car accident on those dates.
0:08:32 > 0:08:33That is not it either.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36No, I mean, the second one isn't a person at all.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38It is about narrow escapes.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Waylon Jennings gave up his seat
0:08:39 > 0:08:41on the plane where Buddy Holly died.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43And Seth MacFarlane was supposed
0:08:43 > 0:08:44to take one of the flights
0:08:44 > 0:08:46that hit the North Tower,
0:08:46 > 0:08:47but he was late.
0:08:47 > 0:08:48But the first two - JP Morgan,
0:08:48 > 0:08:49the founder of the bank,
0:08:49 > 0:08:51he relinquished his ticket for the Titanic.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54And Kokura, that was the primary
0:08:54 > 0:08:56target for the Nagasaki bomb,
0:08:56 > 0:08:58but it was clouded over on the day.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00So, narrow escapes from disaster
0:09:00 > 0:09:02for all these clues.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04No bonus points then. The last question of the round,
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Two Reeds, that is for you, Westerners.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Can you tell me the connection? Here's your first clue.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14Oh, El Chicharito, he's...
0:09:14 > 0:09:17He used to play for Manchester United.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19He plays for Real Madrid now.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21So just go on.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52No, that is it, the time is up. Just too late.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53So a bonus chance for you,
0:09:53 > 0:09:55- Researchers.- Beyonce.
0:09:55 > 0:09:59Yeah, no. Although Beyonce is related to the last clue, of course.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00Yeah, probably not the author of
0:10:00 > 0:10:02The Making Of The English Working Class, though.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04No, I think she may be working on
0:10:04 > 0:10:06that volume but yet to be published.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07You recognised the author of
0:10:07 > 0:10:08The Making Of The English
0:10:08 > 0:10:10Working Class - EP Thompson.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12The author of The Go-Between - LP Hartley.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Don't spot something?

0:10:17 > 0:10:18the Mexican footballer -
0:10:18 > 0:10:20CD Guadalajara.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23And put a ring on it begins - Single Ladies Put A Ring On It.
0:10:23 > 0:10:24So...
0:10:24 > 0:10:26We are looking at music formats -
0:10:26 > 0:10:28CD, EP, LP, single.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Music formats
0:10:30 > 0:10:32at the beginning of those.
0:10:32 > 0:10:33At the end of Round One...
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Neck and neck into Round Two, the sequences round.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45What comes fourth in a sequence?
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Researchers, you'll get go first again.
0:10:48 > 0:10:49Which hieroglyph would you like?

0:10:52 > 0:10:53You are going to see... MUSIC CHIMES
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Well! I say see... You're going
0:10:55 > 0:10:58to hear the first in a sequence.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02A lovely musical sequence. I want to know what would come fourth.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Your first clue is coming in now.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07# Mull of Kintyre... #
0:11:07 > 0:11:08Mull of Kintyre. Wait.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09Next.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11# Mama... #

0:11:12 > 0:11:16# Just killed a man Put a gun against his head. #
0:11:16 > 0:11:18I think they're the best selling songs.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20I think they're the best selling songs of all-time.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22# Pulled the trigger, now he's dead.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24# Mama... #
0:11:24 > 0:11:29- Do you want to go next?- No, I think it must be Candle In The Wind, '97.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Do you think so?

0:11:33 > 0:11:34- Yeah.- Next.

0:11:42 > 0:11:45- Candle In The Wind.- '97.- 1997.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Is the right answer. Why is that?
0:11:48 > 0:11:51I think... Are they the best selling British songs,
0:11:51 > 0:11:53or UK selling songs of all-time?
0:11:53 > 0:11:57At time of recording, they are the best selling singles.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Then Candle In The Wind, which we don't get to hear
0:12:03 > 0:12:04cos it is last in the sequence,
0:12:04 > 0:12:06but I think we could have a blast
0:12:06 > 0:12:07in the studio, couldn't we?
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Let's go from "And it seems to me".
0:12:09 > 0:12:11One, two, three, four...
0:12:11 > 0:12:12- ALL:- # And it seems to me
0:12:12 > 0:12:17# You lived your life like a candle in the wind... #
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Beautiful. I could hear that
0:12:19 > 0:12:21all night. Very well done.
0:12:21 > 0:12:22I wish I could give bonus points
0:12:22 > 0:12:24for the harmonies over there.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26But the points go only to you
0:12:26 > 0:12:27for spotting it, so well done. Westerners,
0:12:27 > 0:12:29you may choose a question.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31- We'll have the Viper, please. - Why not? The Viper.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33What will come fourth in this sequence?
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Here's the first.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Eastern cut-off, I think it is...
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- A canal of some sort.- A canal, yeah.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43This is the Panama Canal, isn't it?
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Or the Suez Canal.
0:12:45 > 0:12:46Next.
0:12:48 > 0:12:49No, that's...
0:12:51 > 0:12:53- The high jumping?- No. Oh, yes, it could be.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56- In which case it would be... - Flop cos...
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Let's go next.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59- It was western... Yeah, OK.- Next.
0:13:01 > 0:13:02Straddle, yeah.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Possibly flop.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07Goodness me! That is the right
0:13:07 > 0:13:09answer. How have you got...? Can you explain
0:13:09 > 0:13:10what this sequence is?
0:13:10 > 0:13:12I think they are the high-jump techniques in order
0:13:12 > 0:13:15in which they won Olympic gold medals, probably.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17It is the order that they broke
0:13:17 > 0:13:19the men's world record
0:13:19 > 0:13:21in the high jump. I thought this was too much lateral thinking.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23The sequence is -
0:13:23 > 0:13:24successive breakages of the
0:13:24 > 0:13:26men's world record in the high jump.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28But then it is the methods
0:13:28 > 0:13:29by which they did it.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Goodness me!
0:13:31 > 0:13:32Back to you, Researchers,
0:13:32 > 0:13:33for a question.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35- We will take the Lion, please. - Why not? The Lion.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37What would come fourth in this sequence?
0:13:37 > 0:13:38They are picture clues.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42So what would you expect to see in the fourth picture? Here's the first.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43Next.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Marmite...
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Vitamin C and D.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54C, B...
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Is it like milk, calcium?
0:13:58 > 0:14:00It's D, isn't it?
0:14:00 > 0:14:03Do want to go for it or do you want to get the next one?
0:14:03 > 0:14:05No, it's not calcium.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07- What's got some D in?- Fish.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10- OK.- Shall we go for it?- Yep.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13We think it is fish or something with lots of vitamin D in.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16We went with lovely sunlight.
0:14:16 > 0:14:17What are we looking at?
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Carrots, which have got
0:14:19 > 0:14:20lots of vitamin A in.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Marmite, lots of vitamin B.
0:14:22 > 0:14:2412 is it or something?
0:14:24 > 0:14:27And then citrus fruits with lots of vitamin C in.
0:14:27 > 0:14:28That's exactly right.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Vitamins A, B, C are the first clues.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32And I want to know what contains vitamin D.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Sunlight, liver, fish oil, eggs...
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Oh, it sounds delicious!
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Well done. For those points. And,
0:14:38 > 0:14:40Westerners, back to you for a choice.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43- Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds. What would come fourth in this sequence?
0:14:43 > 0:14:44Here's the first.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48- Rawlinson.- OK, so...
0:14:50 > 0:14:51Next.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58THEY WHISPER
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Better have next.
0:15:01 > 0:15:02Smith-Dorrien.
0:15:02 > 0:15:06No. Smith-Dorrien, some sort of...
0:15:07 > 0:15:10It's either the real name of a detective...
0:15:10 > 0:15:13No, that is Nayland Smith I'm thinking of. Smith-Dorrien.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14He is someone...
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Smith-Dorrien... Um...
0:15:18 > 0:15:19Er...
0:15:21 > 0:15:24I'm just going to have a wild guess here. First Fisher.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Not the right answer. Let me go over
0:15:26 > 0:15:28to the Operational Researchers
0:15:28 > 0:15:30- to see if you know.- First Hughes.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Not it. Why are you saying Fisher?
0:15:32 > 0:15:34I just had a vague idea they might
0:15:34 > 0:15:36be late-19th-century admirals
0:15:36 > 0:15:38or something like that.
0:15:38 > 0:15:39They are military figures,
0:15:39 > 0:15:41generals, really. They are commanders
0:15:41 > 0:15:42of Kitchener's armies.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43And it is first - Haig.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45- Oh.- Armies going backwards.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48K4, K3, K2, K1.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50In World War I, Kitchener's armies.
0:15:50 > 0:15:51And the commander of the first one -
0:15:51 > 0:15:53Haig. No bonus points then,
0:15:53 > 0:15:54but you do get a choice.
0:15:54 > 0:15:55Which one would you like?
0:15:55 > 0:15:57- Water, please.- Water.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59What would be fourth in this sequence?
0:15:59 > 0:16:00Here's the first.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06SHE WHISPERS
0:16:06 > 0:16:07Next.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- Yes. So it would be... - So it would be nitrogen.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Filled in with...
0:16:16 > 0:16:18What's the colours?
0:16:18 > 0:16:19Red for... Carbon is not
0:16:19 > 0:16:22in the atmosphere, though. I think we need another one.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Next, please.
0:16:25 > 0:16:26Helium.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32What would it be?
0:16:32 > 0:16:34I guess filled in...
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Yeah.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41An N filled completely round in green?
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44So another bonus chance
0:16:44 > 0:16:45for you, Westerners.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48It would be an H filled completely round.
0:16:48 > 0:16:49That is the right answer.
0:16:49 > 0:16:50Can you explain why?
0:16:50 > 0:16:54It's the proportions of these elements, we think, in the sun.
0:16:54 > 0:16:55Well, it is the universe in general.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57It is the make-up of the universe.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59We have got carbon, then oxygen,
0:16:59 > 0:17:02then helium. And I think if everything else was nitrogen,
0:17:02 > 0:17:03we'd be in a bit of trouble.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05So it is actually hydrogen, represented by an H.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07So you get a bonus point and you get
0:17:07 > 0:17:09the last question, the Twisted Flax.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11What would be fourth in this sequence? Here is the first.
0:17:13 > 0:17:17One is Common Era. So where are they going with that?
0:17:18 > 0:17:20- Maybe it is to do with...- Next.
0:17:22 > 0:17:23Two, scarlet woman.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- Scarlet woman.- Are they tarot cards or something like that?
0:17:29 > 0:17:32CE and... Scarlet woman doesn't have initials.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35Um...
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Is the scarlet woman a book?
0:17:38 > 0:17:39Next.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48- Something with tarot cards. - I don't know whether they are cards.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Three seconds.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52BELL
0:17:52 > 0:17:55HE EXHALES HEAVILY
0:17:55 > 0:17:59Four, colon, death.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:18:01 > 0:18:02It is so often the end of a sequence.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Death. But not on this occasion.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06So Operational Researchers, do you want to have a go?
0:18:06 > 0:18:09Four, colon, resurrection?
0:18:09 > 0:18:11LAUGHING: No. Although...lovely!
0:18:11 > 0:18:13I mean, skip right over death
0:18:13 > 0:18:14and into resurrection.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16No, you have missed it completely. This is a word one.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Now, what is mean about this is...
0:18:18 > 0:18:22We have played the old crossword compiler's trick
0:18:22 > 0:18:23of breaking and going
0:18:23 > 0:18:24on to the next line.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26But if you look in the middle
0:18:26 > 0:18:30of the two words, you will see 'one' in the middle of common era.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Do you see that? Two.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34If you take the T from the end of scarlet and W-O, you get two.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Death re-enacted, you get three.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38So something with four, for example - handcuff ourselves.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40We should've looked at that.
0:18:40 > 0:18:41We wanted something with the number
0:18:41 > 0:18:43four hidden in the middle.
0:18:43 > 0:18:44At the end of Round Two, then...
0:18:52 > 0:18:55Time to get the teams up against a wall, a Connecting Wall.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58You'll be going first this time, Spaghetti Westerners.
0:18:58 > 0:18:59Would you like Lion or Water?
0:18:59 > 0:19:01We'll have the Lion, please.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04OK. You have 2.5 minutes to sort out this wall.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Starting...now.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10THEY READ THE BOARD IN WHISPERS
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Bennet.
0:19:12 > 0:19:13Bennet, character.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15March is a character.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16Sisters in novels.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18March, Bennet, sisters in novels.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21- May sisters?- Possibly.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23Keel, possibly.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Let's just try that on the off chance.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28- BUZZ - Upside down, is that a cake?
0:19:28 > 0:19:29The Love, can't think of
0:19:29 > 0:19:31anything for that. Kissing.
0:19:31 > 0:19:32Is that a song, The Love?
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Robbie Williams' song, isn't it?
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Is it a song by somebody?
0:19:36 > 0:19:38The Love, celebration.
0:19:38 > 0:19:39Upside Down is a song, isn't it?
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Millennium is a song.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45Try those four, it might be.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48- BUZZ - No, OK, so... Lake. May.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50Veronica Lake was an actress.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Howard Keel was in musicals.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56- June.- Bennett. Chase.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Are the Chase sisters in something?
0:19:58 > 0:20:00- Let's try that.- OK.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- BUZZ - Oh, September is a song by
0:20:03 > 0:20:05Kool & The Gang. Or Earth, Wind and Fire.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07So is Celebration...
0:20:07 > 0:20:10So I assume it is upside down.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13The Love and kissing sound alike, don't they?
0:20:13 > 0:20:14Try The Love and upside down.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17- Buzz - OK, try those again with that.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19- BUZZ - Try them again with that.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21- BUZZ - I tell you what,
0:20:21 > 0:20:23- I'm going to try these.- Yep.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25We have got a minute left.
0:20:25 > 0:20:30- BUZZ - Shame. Something with shame.
0:20:30 > 0:20:34September, celebration, millennium...
0:20:37 > 0:20:39THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER, BUZZ
0:20:40 > 0:20:42I think the sisters is one.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45I think Bennet and March are good. The sisters have got to be.
0:20:45 > 0:20:46You have 30 seconds.
0:20:48 > 0:20:49I'm going to try that.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52- What about months? I know it is a bit...- Well, March.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54They are fuels, possibly.
0:20:54 > 0:20:55September.
0:20:55 > 0:21:00- BUZZ - Nope.- Fossil fuels. No. No.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02There has got to be word thing in there.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04- Eel.- Eel.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Ten seconds.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09- March. Hip.- Hip.- Part of the body.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16No. I'm afraid you are out of time.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Defeated by the Wall.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21Don't worry, because you can still get points for the connections.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24So let's see how the groups should have looked.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26There we are. That is the resolved wall.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29What about the connecting points? The first blue group.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Sisters?
0:21:34 > 0:21:36Well, we can't do better than literary sisters.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38You can't do better. That is the correct answer.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39It is as good as you can do.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41The Bennets, from Pride And Prejudice.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Fossil, that is from Ballet Shoes.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45And the green group.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50They are songs.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52- By...- Disco.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55They are disco tracks, that is absolutely right.
0:21:55 > 0:21:56The purple group.
0:21:59 > 0:22:00There are bugs.
0:22:00 > 0:22:01They are bugs.
0:22:01 > 0:22:02And the last group.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Are there fish hidden in there somehow?
0:22:08 > 0:22:10No. You are right to spot that it is
0:22:10 > 0:22:12a word one, but this is really horrible.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15They are anagrams of vegetables.
0:22:15 > 0:22:19Pak choi, kale, leek and yam.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Vegetable anagrams.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24So that is no points, unfortunately, for the groups,
0:22:24 > 0:22:26but three points for the connections.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29That is a total of - give me a second - it's three.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31Time to bring in the Operational Researchers,
0:22:31 > 0:22:34give them a Connecting Wall, and see how they can do.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37You will be getting the Water wall, the Lion was taken. 2.5 minutes,
0:22:37 > 0:22:40of course. Starting now.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43OK, uh... Well, there is...
0:22:43 > 0:22:46- So it's pi...- Sugar Sugar, Louie Louie, Monday Monday,
0:22:46 > 0:22:49- and Doctor! Doctor! are all double-word songs.- OK. Um...
0:22:49 > 0:22:50One red paperclip?
0:22:50 > 0:22:56There was one red paperclip and then he kept swapping it for things.
0:22:56 > 0:22:57Maybe not.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00- No, no.- Alex from Target is a...
0:23:00 > 0:23:02He is a meme, isn't he? Type thing.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08He's like a YouTube thing.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10And so was Friday.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12So maybe one red and that is? Yeah. OK.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Three strikes and you're out now.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16- Still plenty of time.- So, pi...
0:23:16 > 0:23:19- See.- The letter.- City. Pi...
0:23:19 > 0:23:22Moose.
0:23:22 > 0:23:23Taught.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- Taught meaning tight.- Yeah.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30- Saturday, Sunday.- These aren't...
0:23:30 > 0:23:31Saturday, Sunday.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36- OK, let's...- Blue... Easter Sunday.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39- Easter Island.- Easter Saturday.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41- Easter city.- Holy city.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43- Oh.- Holy city. Holy Sunday.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45- Holy Island.- OK, so holy.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47There is Holy Sunday, I think?
0:23:47 > 0:23:49- Holy city.- And holy see.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52- So what are the other ones? - So, pi...
0:23:52 > 0:23:53Saturday, Moose and taught.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Moose. Saturday.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00That has got tau, bits of tau.
