0:00:21 > 0:00:25Hello, and welcome to a brand-new series of Only Connect,
0:00:25 > 0:00:27where once again our intrepid quizzers will have to find
0:00:27 > 0:00:31connections between clues as isolated, impenetrable
0:00:31 > 0:00:35and shrouded in mist as the peaks of the Scottish Highlands.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Equipped with metaphorical crampons
0:00:37 > 0:00:39and literal breathing apparatus,
0:00:39 > 0:00:41will tonight's teams scale the heights of
0:00:41 > 0:00:44quizzing achievement, or be forced back down to wallow
0:00:44 > 0:00:49in a loch of disappointment, battling monsters of inner defeat?
0:00:49 > 0:00:51We'll find out by nine o'clock tonight.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54It would have been sooner if I hadn't said all this.
0:00:55 > 0:01:00Kicking off the competition this year we have - on my right,
0:01:00 > 0:01:03David Prevezer, a history graduate who works for the
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Financial Conduct Authority and has visited Japan six times.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12Hugh Brady, a scientist and keen athlete who vomited while running
0:01:12 > 0:01:15the Berlin Marathon, and their captain Jack Welsby,
0:01:15 > 0:01:18a chartered accountant with a degree in maths who was once
0:01:18 > 0:01:20baby-sat by a Booker prize-winner.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24United by an affection for the Underground, they are the Tubers.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28So, Jack, how is your team feeling in advance of its first appearance?
0:01:28 > 0:01:30I think we're in that sweet spot
0:01:30 > 0:01:32between equivocation and vacillation.
0:01:32 > 0:01:33A very happy place to be.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36May you remain there for many episodes.
0:01:36 > 0:01:41You'll be competing against, on my left, Charlie Cook,
0:01:41 > 0:01:44a retired IT specialist and part-time playwright,
0:01:44 > 0:01:47whose Sherlock Holmes satire has been performed on every continent
0:01:47 > 0:01:49except Antarctica.
0:01:49 > 0:01:54Tim Hepworth, an IT consultant who was born with two thumbs on one hand
0:01:54 > 0:01:58and their captain, Sue Barnard, a novelist with
0:01:58 > 0:02:02an interest in amateur dramatics who is often mistaken for a Belgian.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06United by a passion for poetry, they are the Bardophiles,
0:02:06 > 0:02:08a team of literary enthusiasts.
0:02:08 > 0:02:09How do you know each other?
0:02:09 > 0:02:14We're united by Charlie's twin passions for IT and the theatre.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17That's an unusual pair of passions.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- It is.- I hope that sees you through to victory.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Nothing against you, I hope everybody wins.
0:02:23 > 0:02:27We're going to start with Round One, in which teams simply have to find
0:02:27 > 0:02:30the connection between four apparently random clues.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33The fewer clues they need to see, the more points they get.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37And the connections will be lateral, calling for some major thinking.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Tubers, you've already won something - the toss -
0:02:40 > 0:02:42so you'll be going first.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Please choose an Egyptian hieroglyph.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46Two flowering reeds please.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48OK, the Two Reeds.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51I'm going to show you a clue - shout next whenever you want another one.
0:02:51 > 0:02:52Here's the first.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57Next please.
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Next please.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09Theatre awards.
0:03:13 > 0:03:14Hugh.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17They're theatre awards of those countries...
0:03:17 > 0:03:19They're named after those... They're eponymous.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21These are people that have given
0:03:21 > 0:03:22their names to theatre awards in
0:03:22 > 0:03:24different countries.
0:03:24 > 0:03:25You didn't need to see
0:03:25 > 0:03:26Laurence Olivier,
0:03:26 > 0:03:27the Olivier Awards.
0:03:27 > 0:03:28You recognised it at that
0:03:28 > 0:03:30third clue. What are the awards?
0:03:30 > 0:03:31The Tonys.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33That's right, Antoinette Perry,
0:03:33 > 0:03:35the actor. A rather unsung actor,
0:03:35 > 0:03:36but she has given her name,
0:03:36 > 0:03:38or nickname, to the Tony awards.
0:03:38 > 0:03:39Le Moliere in France
0:03:39 > 0:03:41and the Alfred Radok awards
0:03:41 > 0:03:43in the Czech Republic.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45As can imagine, it's mostly
0:03:45 > 0:03:47jukebox musicals over there.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50So you're off the blocks with two points, very well done.
0:03:50 > 0:03:51Bardophiles, what would you like?
0:03:51 > 0:03:52Lion please.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54The Lion question, OK.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56These are going to be picture clues, but work the same way.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Something connects them, what is it?
0:03:58 > 0:03:59Here's the first.
0:04:03 > 0:04:04Next.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11Next.
0:04:24 > 0:04:25Next.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35They share their surnames with composers.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Interesting.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39I'm going to let you have another go
0:04:39 > 0:04:40and I want to hear something
0:04:40 > 0:04:41very specific.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Britain.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46They all have the surname Britain, not just composers,
0:04:46 > 0:04:50but the composer Benjamin Britten who actually appears at clue two.
0:04:50 > 0:04:51Who are we looking at?
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Vera Brittain is clue one.
0:04:53 > 0:04:54Benjamin Britten clue two.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Fern Britton and Leon Brittan.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57That's exactly right.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Vera Brittain, the feminist mother of Shirley Williams.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01The composer himself at clue two.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Fern Britton, and Leon Brittan, who
0:05:03 > 0:05:04was in Margaret Thatcher's cabinet.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07So you've got one point and, Tubers, it's back to you to choose.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09The wick of Twisted Flax please.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11The wick of Twisted Flax.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Correctly named question. Is it a good choice?
0:05:14 > 0:05:15You first clue is coming up now.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22Next please.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Umbrellas.
0:05:40 > 0:05:41Coming in after two clues,
0:05:41 > 0:05:42you get three points.
0:05:42 > 0:05:43Umbrellas is the connection.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45I'm going to show you all four.
0:05:45 > 0:05:46You didn't need them all.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Talk me through them.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49How does the connection work?
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Ten weeks at number one is Rhianna with umbrella.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Mary Poppins flew in on her umbrella.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Right. What about the first two?
0:05:55 > 0:05:58The Hong Kong protests were called the Umbrella protests,
0:05:58 > 0:06:00and Hegel's Holiday, I'm afraid I don't know.
0:06:00 > 0:06:01Yes, in Hong Kong, they used
0:06:01 > 0:06:02umbrellas to protect themselves
0:06:02 > 0:06:04rather poignantly against tear gas.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Hegel's Holiday is an image of an
0:06:06 > 0:06:08umbrella with a glass of water
0:06:08 > 0:06:10on top of it. Because Hegel favoured
0:06:10 > 0:06:12a dialectic, I think it's something
0:06:12 > 0:06:14to do with... Umbrella stops water
0:06:14 > 0:06:15and a glass contains it,
0:06:15 > 0:06:17something like that.
0:06:17 > 0:06:18Well done.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Back to you, Bardophiles, for a choice.
0:06:20 > 0:06:21Eye of Horus please.
0:06:21 > 0:06:22The Eye of Horus.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25What is the connection between these clues?
0:06:25 > 0:06:26Here's the first.
0:06:32 > 0:06:33Next.
0:06:46 > 0:06:47Next.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00They're all semis.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Semifinals, semiconductors...
0:07:02 > 0:07:05No, I'm afraid that wouldn't really apply at the first clue.
0:07:05 > 0:07:06I think, if the semifinal decides
0:07:06 > 0:07:07the champions, we have booked
0:07:07 > 0:07:09too many shows for this series,
0:07:09 > 0:07:10I can tell you.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12So I'm afraid that's not the answer.
0:07:12 > 0:07:13I'm going to show the fourth clue
0:07:13 > 0:07:16to the Tubers - you've got the chance for a bonus point.
0:07:16 > 0:07:17They're all super.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19It's super.
0:07:19 > 0:07:20It's not semi.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Do you know what these clues are referring to?
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Written above normal script is superscript.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27Losing resistance is superconductivity.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29I suppose that's a supernova and the Super Bowl.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31The Super Bowl.
0:07:31 > 0:07:32So the bowl becomes the
0:07:32 > 0:07:33Super Bowl when it's the final,
0:07:33 > 0:07:36nova becomes supernova and so on.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38So super is the connection.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41You get a bonus point and the chance to choose your own question.
0:07:41 > 0:07:42Water please.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Water. Ah, the music question.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47This works the same as the others, but you'll be hearing the clues.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Something connects them, what is it?
0:07:49 > 0:07:52The first one is coming in now.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01Next please.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03# Ain't it a glorious day
0:08:03 > 0:08:05# Right as a morning in May
0:08:05 > 0:08:07# I feel like I could fly. #
0:08:08 > 0:08:09Next please.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11# 1, 2, 3
0:08:11 > 0:08:13# Summer, Buddy Holly The working folly
0:08:13 > 0:08:15# Good golly, Miss Molly and boats
0:08:15 > 0:08:17# Hammersmith Palais The Bolshoi Ballet
0:08:17 > 0:08:21# Jump back in the alley and nanny goats. #
0:08:21 > 0:08:22Next please.
0:08:22 > 0:08:27# Other girls may try to take me away. #
0:08:29 > 0:08:31- Three seconds. - Holidays.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Holidays is not it, I'm afraid.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37So you've got the chance of a bonus point now, Bardophiles. Do you know?
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Is it numbers?
0:08:39 > 0:08:41It's not numbers.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44Now we heard the words "Part 3" in the third clue.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48You're saying holidays, because the second piece was Jolly Holiday
0:08:48 > 0:08:51from Mary Poppins. You want the other word.
0:08:51 > 0:08:52We heard Franz Lehar's
0:08:52 > 0:08:55The Merry Widow Waltz, Jolly Holiday,
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Reasons To Be Cheerful Part 3, that's Ian Dury.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01The last one was The Dave Clark Five, Glad All Over.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04Words indicating merriment
0:09:04 > 0:09:06or jollity, that was it.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08So no bonus point, Bardophiles,
0:09:08 > 0:09:11but you do get the last question of the round, it's the Horned Viper.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15What is the connection between these clues? Here's the first.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Next.
0:09:32 > 0:09:33Next.
0:09:50 > 0:09:51Next.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Three seconds.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57They climb in over balconies.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01I need you to be a lot more specific than that.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Any thoughts?
0:10:03 > 0:10:04No, I'm afraid I can't take that.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06Tubers, you have the chance
0:10:06 > 0:10:07of a bonus point.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Have they all come into people's houses when they're not expected?
0:10:10 > 0:10:13You need to be more specific as well. It's for a bonus point.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14At night.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15I can't take it, not for a bonus.
0:10:15 > 0:10:16It wasn't actually at night.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Michael Fagan went in the morning -
0:10:18 > 0:10:20you're thinking, cos the Queen was in bed at the time,
0:10:20 > 0:10:23but it was seven o'clock in the morning he broke in there.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Do you know when she raised the alarm?
0:10:25 > 0:10:27When he asked for cigarettes.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30It was. The Queen didn't mind the break-in, but she hates smoking.
0:10:30 > 0:10:31He asked for cigarettes,
0:10:31 > 0:10:32she raised the alarm.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35Brownies I think not obviously the
0:10:35 > 0:10:37children version of the scouts.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Brownies are sort of Scottish
0:10:39 > 0:10:40goblins who come in and perform
0:10:40 > 0:10:43chores at night and are rewarded with porridge.
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Freddy Krueger of course
0:10:44 > 0:10:46from Nightmare On Elm Street
0:10:46 > 0:10:48and Milk Tray Man, that rather
0:10:48 > 0:10:49creepy advertising figure who
0:10:49 > 0:10:51sneaked into women's bedrooms
0:10:51 > 0:10:52and left chocolate.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54But no points there.
0:10:54 > 0:10:55At the end of Round One,
0:10:55 > 0:10:57the Bardophiles have one point,
0:10:57 > 0:10:59the Tubers have six.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Round Two is the sequences round.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07There are still four clues, they're still connected, but this time the
0:11:07 > 0:11:10fourth clue is hidden and the teams have to tell me what it is.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13They must work out the sequence and then tell me what comes fourth.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15Tubers, you'll be going first again.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Please choose your sequential hieroglyph.
0:11:18 > 0:11:19Two Reeds please.
0:11:19 > 0:11:20OK, the Two Reeds.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22You'll be seeing the first in a sequence,
0:11:22 > 0:11:24I want to know what comes fourth. The time starts now.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Next please.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45Next please.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Three seconds.
0:12:04 > 0:12:084 of 4 - 5 obverse.
0:12:08 > 0:12:09That is the right answer.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11And why? What's the sequence?
0:12:11 > 0:12:13I think it's to do with the presidents on Mount Rushmore.
0:12:13 > 0:12:14That's right.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19So it was Washington, Jefferson, I presume Roosevelt comes next,
0:12:19 > 0:12:23and hence Lincoln is on the reverse of the five dollar bill.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25That's right, it's the presidents
0:12:25 > 0:12:26going along Mount Rushmore from left
0:12:26 > 0:12:29to right and the banknotes on which they appear. Roosevelt doesn't
0:12:29 > 0:12:32actually appear on a banknote, just the odd special coin.
0:12:32 > 0:12:33But Lincoln's on the obverse
0:12:33 > 0:12:34of the five dollar bill. Well done.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Bardophiles, what would you like?
0:12:37 > 0:12:38Lion please.
0:12:38 > 0:12:39The Lion, OK.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41What is the fourth in this sequence?
0:12:41 > 0:12:42Here's the first.
0:12:47 > 0:12:48Next please.
0:12:59 > 0:13:00Next.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Two Gentlemen Of Verona.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- The opening line.- Oh, gosh.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24What is it that you think
0:13:24 > 0:13:25I want to hear?
0:13:25 > 0:13:27The opening line of something with two in the title.
0:13:27 > 0:13:28I'll accept that, you know what
0:13:28 > 0:13:30we're looking for. I'd like to have
0:13:30 > 0:13:31heard the actual opening line.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33I don't know the opening line of
0:13:33 > 0:13:34Two Gentlemen Of Verona myself.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36We went for A Tale Of Two Cities,
0:13:36 > 0:13:38that long one about, "It was the best of times..."
0:13:38 > 0:13:41But you're right. These are the first lines
0:13:41 > 0:13:42of books containing numbers.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Do you know what the books are?
0:13:45 > 0:13:47The second one is The Sign Of Four.
0:13:47 > 0:13:48The third one is Three Men In A Boat.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50We're not sure about the first.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Slaughterhouse Five, Kurt Vonnegut.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Tubers, your turn for a choice.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57The wick of Twisted Flax please.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58The wick of Twisted Flax, OK.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00What would come fourth in this sequence?
0:14:00 > 0:14:01Here's the first.
0:14:06 > 0:14:07Next please.
0:14:14 > 0:14:15Next please.
0:14:27 > 0:14:28Blackstar.
0:14:28 > 0:14:29Is the right answer.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32I heard you muttering, but what is the sequence?
0:14:32 > 0:14:34They're David Bowie albums up to the most recent one.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36You are absolutely right,
0:14:36 > 0:14:37they are David Bowie albums.
0:14:37 > 0:14:38And Blackstar, hailed by
0:14:38 > 0:14:40many fans as a great album,
0:14:40 > 0:14:43was the most recent and, I think we can probably assume, the last.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44Well done.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Bardophiles, what would you like next?
0:14:46 > 0:14:48- Water please.- Water.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50What is the fourth in this sequence?
0:14:50 > 0:14:51Here's the first.
0:14:55 > 0:14:56Next please.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Next please.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33George the... I beg your pardon.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36George VIII.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38I'm afraid that is not right answer.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40So, Tubers, you have the chance of a bonus point.
0:15:40 > 0:15:41Charles III.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Charles III is the right answer.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47It is a reverse order of succession.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49So King Charles would be Charles III,
0:15:49 > 0:15:52then, going backwards, his son William, William V.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54George VII would be William's son
0:15:54 > 0:15:56and, the daughter, Charlotte I.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58I might have accepted George VII.
0:15:58 > 0:15:59Why?
0:15:59 > 0:16:02They're saying Charles is going to take George rather than Charles.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Some people say Prince Charles will not use the name Charles
0:16:05 > 0:16:09when he ascends the throne, because it's unlucky. He might take George
0:16:09 > 0:16:10and then he'd be George VII and the
0:16:10 > 0:16:12grandson would be George VIII.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15But George VIII not an answer in a sequence, I'm afraid.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18So you get the bonus point, Tubers. Well done.
0:16:18 > 0:16:19Which question would you like?
0:16:19 > 0:16:20Horned Viper please.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22These are going to be picture clues.
0:16:22 > 0:16:26What sort of thing might you expect to see in the last picture?
0:16:26 > 0:16:27Here's the first.
0:16:31 > 0:16:32Next please.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45Next please.
0:17:03 > 0:17:04Three seconds.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09I'm afraid you're out of time.
0:17:09 > 0:17:10The clock is on zero.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13So, Bardophiles, you have the chance of a bonus point.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15- I can't think of a thing.- No.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17I can't give you long.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19Nothing, OK.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22People associate Mr Spock
0:17:22 > 0:17:23with a hand signal.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Can you do it?
0:17:25 > 0:17:26We can, but we're not going to.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27Do it. I'm in my special
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Star Trek style outfit.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31It's this sort of thing, isn't it?
0:17:31 > 0:17:33That's right, exactly.
0:17:33 > 0:17:34A four-fingered gesture based,
0:17:34 > 0:17:36some people say,
0:17:36 > 0:17:38on the Jewish priestly blessing.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40A scout - three fingers of course.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42Winston Churchill, two fingers.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44I want to hear someone that's associated
0:17:44 > 0:17:46with a single-finger gesture.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47For example, a cricket umpire
0:17:47 > 0:17:50like lovely Dickie Bird
0:17:50 > 0:17:52we're featuring in that picture.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53So, no points there.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56Bardophiles, you may have the last question of the round,
0:17:56 > 0:18:00the Eye of Horus. What kind of thing would come fourth in the sequence?
0:18:00 > 0:18:01Here's the first.
0:18:07 > 0:18:08Next please.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26Stupid boy.
0:18:26 > 0:18:27Is an acceptable answer.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Very well done, you get three points.
0:18:30 > 0:18:31And why, what's the sequence?
0:18:31 > 0:18:34They are catchphrases from characters in Dad's Army,
0:18:34 > 0:18:36going up by rank.
0:18:36 > 0:18:37They are going up by rank.
0:18:37 > 0:18:38Can you tell me who is...?
0:18:38 > 0:18:42"We're doomed, I tell you," is Private Fraser.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44"Don't panic," is Corporal Jones.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46"Do you think that's awfully wise," is Sgt Wilson
0:18:46 > 0:18:49and "You stupid boy," is Captain Mainwaring.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51I think it's Lance Corporal Jones
0:18:51 > 0:18:52but that's absolutely right.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54It is catchphrases of Dad's Army characters
0:18:54 > 0:18:56in ascending order of rank.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57What else might I have accepted
0:18:57 > 0:18:59- from that last one? - "Don't tell him, Pike."
0:18:59 > 0:19:01That would have been all right.
0:19:01 > 0:19:02I've got a list here.
0:19:02 > 0:19:03"Hello, Elizabeth."
0:19:03 > 0:19:06"Is that you, Jones?"
0:19:06 > 0:19:07"I was wondering who'd
0:19:07 > 0:19:08"be the first to spot that."
0:19:08 > 0:19:10I mean, I'm no Arthur Lowe, am I?
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Physically maybe. In performance, no.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14"Stop talking in the ranks."
0:19:14 > 0:19:16I'm going to try and find an opportunity to say that
0:19:16 > 0:19:18later in the show. But very well done, you get the points.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Meaning, at the end of Round Two,
0:19:21 > 0:19:24the Bardophiles have six points,
0:19:24 > 0:19:25the Tubers have 11.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Time for Round Three, the Connecting Wall.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34There are 16 clues this time - there are four connected groups of four,
0:19:34 > 0:19:37but they are jumbled up and some clues fit into more than
0:19:37 > 0:19:40one category, but there is only one perfect solution.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43The teams need to find those four connected groups -
0:19:43 > 0:19:45they'll get points for the groups, points for the connections
0:19:45 > 0:19:47and bonus points if they get it all right.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Your turn to go first this time, Bardophiles.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52And you have a choice - Lion or Water.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54- Lion please.- OK.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56The Lion Wall - you've got
0:19:56 > 0:19:59two and a half minutes to solve it, starting now.
0:20:20 > 0:20:2130 Rock.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Punk rock.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25Northern Rock.
0:20:25 > 0:20:26Plymouth Rock.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Patriots, Chargers, Cowboys and Saints.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40American football.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43It's a three strikes and you're out now.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21You've got two goes and a minute left.
0:21:36 > 0:21:3730 seconds now...
0:21:39 > 0:21:40..and one remaining turn.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57No, I'm afraid that's it, you're out of goes,
0:21:57 > 0:21:59and the wall has frozen.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01But you found two groups and I'll give you points
0:22:01 > 0:22:02if you can tell me the connections.
0:22:02 > 0:22:08The first blue group - 30, Punk, Plymouth, Northern.
0:22:08 > 0:22:09Rock.
0:22:09 > 0:22:13That's right. 30 Rock, punk rock, Plymouth Rock, Northern Rock.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15The words can all proceed rock.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18And the green group - Cowboy, Saint, Patriot, Charger.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21American football teams without the S.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24That's right, they're NFL teams in the singular.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26You can still get points for connections
0:22:26 > 0:22:29in the groups you didn't find, so let's resolve the wall.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31There we go, that's how it should have looked -
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Beefeater, Magellan, No.3, Gordon's.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36Brands of gin.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38Those are the brands of gin.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40I think somehow my shopping list
0:22:40 > 0:22:42got mixed up with the Wall clues.
0:22:42 > 0:22:43And the final group -
0:22:43 > 0:22:47Raven, Fusilier, Crown Jewels, Paul Cummins.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49They can all be found at the Tower of London.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51They're all associated with the Tower of London.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Now, you didn't know Paul Cummins?
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- No.- He is the artist who did the exhibition,
0:22:56 > 0:22:57Lands And Seas Of Red,
0:22:57 > 0:22:59you know the poppy exhibition?
0:22:59 > 0:23:03Amazing, for the war anniversary at the Tower of London.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06There's two points for the groups that you found and four points
0:23:06 > 0:23:08for the connections - that is a total of six.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11We're going to bring in the Tubers and give them a new Connecting Wall.
0:23:11 > 0:23:1516 fresh clues still need sorting into four connected groups of four.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18It will be the Water Wall for you, because the Lion's taken.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21You have two and a half minutes to solve it, starting now.
0:24:15 > 0:24:16Three strikes and you're out now.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Clinical. You solved the wall, very well done.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43That's four points immediately for the groups,
0:24:43 > 0:24:46and you can get more points if you tell me the connections.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48Let's start with the first blue group -
0:24:48 > 0:24:50Tucker, Sheila, Barbie, Yakka.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52All Australian slang.
0:24:52 > 0:24:53They're Australian slang.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55And the next group starting Cavalier,
0:24:55 > 0:24:56the green group, what's that?
0:24:56 > 0:24:58You can put "laughing" in front of them.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00You can. And laughing jackass, I think you didn't know.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Not in the first instance, no.
0:25:02 > 0:25:03You're dismissing it as Australian slang,
0:25:03 > 0:25:05but it is actually a term for a kookaburra.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08There's a kookaburra, a laughing jackass is that.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11And the next group - Stock, Butt, Grip, Barrel.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13They're parts of a gun.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15That's right, they are parts of the gun.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18And the last turquoise group, what's that?
0:25:18 > 0:25:20They're all Manchester United footballers.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Footballers for Manchester United.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25So four points for the groups you found, four for the connections.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28I'll give you a bonus two points for getting it all right,
0:25:28 > 0:25:29that is the maximum of ten.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32Let's have a look at the overall scores.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41So you've got some catching up to do, Bardophiles, but it is possible,
0:25:41 > 0:25:45because, in Round Four, you can lose points for getting things wrong.
0:25:45 > 0:25:46This is the Missing Vowels round.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49We've taken well-known names, phrases and sayings,
0:25:49 > 0:25:52lifted out the vowels and re-spaced the consonants.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55The teams have to tell me what those hidden clues are.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58And, if you get it wrong by so much as a single consonant,
0:25:58 > 0:26:00I'll be taking a point away.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Fingers on buzzers.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04The first group are...
0:26:10 > 0:26:11Tubers.
0:26:11 > 0:26:12Filibustering.
0:26:12 > 0:26:13Correct.
0:26:15 > 0:26:16Tubers.
0:26:16 > 0:26:17Woolsack.
0:26:17 > 0:26:18Correct.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27This is a tough one. It's...
0:26:29 > 0:26:31Next clue.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32Tubers.
0:26:32 > 0:26:33Royal Assent.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35Correct. Next category.
0:26:39 > 0:26:40Bardophiles.
0:26:40 > 0:26:41Driving penalties.
0:26:41 > 0:26:42Correct.
0:26:44 > 0:26:45Bardophiles.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47Railway junctions.
0:26:47 > 0:26:48I'm afraid that's not it, you lose a point.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Tubers, do you know?
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Too long.
0:26:53 > 0:26:54Next clue.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Tubers.
0:26:58 > 0:26:59Fielding positions in cricket.
0:26:59 > 0:27:00Correct.
0:27:02 > 0:27:03Tubers.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Prizes.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Next category...
0:27:11 > 0:27:12Bardophiles.
0:27:12 > 0:27:13Pricing guns.
0:27:13 > 0:27:14Yes, it is.
0:27:16 > 0:27:17Tubers.
0:27:17 > 0:27:18Country clubs.
0:27:18 > 0:27:19You've got it.
0:27:21 > 0:27:22Tubers.
0:27:22 > 0:27:23Britney Spears.
0:27:23 > 0:27:24Correct.
0:27:26 > 0:27:27Tubers.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Walnut whips.
0:27:29 > 0:27:30Yes, it is.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Next category...
0:27:37 > 0:27:39But we will never know who famously wear red,
0:27:39 > 0:27:42because the bell has gone for the end of the quiz.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45And I can tell you that, in second place with 13 points,
0:27:45 > 0:27:48it's the Bardophiles. But in first place,
0:27:48 > 0:27:52with a resounding 29 points, it's the Tubers.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54Very well done to you, you are straight through to the next round.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56Bardophiles, we may see you again.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59We've got a new structure this year where everybody
0:27:59 > 0:28:01doesn't automatically come back,
0:28:01 > 0:28:04but the highest scoring second-place finishers will return.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06So we may see you again.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09Hope we'll see you again, please join us next week.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13But, before we go, if in 2017, you'd like to come and see the live
0:28:13 > 0:28:17Only Connect stadium tour of 20 major cities and arenas,
0:28:17 > 0:28:21then please feel free to put in place the funding and logistics
0:28:21 > 0:28:25that would make such a commercially suicidal venture viable.
0:28:25 > 0:28:26Goodbye.
