0:00:21 > 0:00:24It's holiday time, and I say that in the full knowledge
0:00:24 > 0:00:28that I have absolutely no idea when this show is being broadcast,
0:00:28 > 0:00:32but I consider myself to be currently on holiday.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Must be the Feast of St Someone.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37So, I'm going to celebrate by having a few more drinks while you meet,
0:00:37 > 0:00:42on my right, Andy Davis, a keen marathon runner
0:00:42 > 0:00:46who chatted to Sally Gunnell when his flight was delayed from Geneva,
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Tony Moore, a maths graduate
0:00:48 > 0:00:51who discovered he had appeared on candid camera in Belgium
0:00:51 > 0:00:54when he caught himself on television in Iceland,
0:00:54 > 0:00:57and their captain Jonathan Elliott,
0:00:57 > 0:00:59a Scout leader who, while wearing his uniform,
0:00:59 > 0:01:02was mistaken for a member of the Hitler Youth.
0:01:02 > 0:01:06United by a soft spot for spices, they are the Fire-Eaters.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09You won your first heat against the Eurovisionaries.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11How are you feeling about tonight's game?
0:01:11 > 0:01:13I think the game's only going to get harder,
0:01:13 > 0:01:15but we're just going to see how the questions go
0:01:15 > 0:01:17and try to be as aggressive on the buzzer as we can.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20Well, let's see who will be the victims of your aggression.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24They are, on my left, Elysia Warner,
0:01:24 > 0:01:27a linguistics student who appeared on television in China
0:01:27 > 0:01:29while suffering from typhoid,
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Olivier Grouille, a PhD student who has been described on social media
0:01:33 > 0:01:36as a time-travelling Victorian supervillain,
0:01:36 > 0:01:41and their captain Sarah Binney, a master's student who likes cats
0:01:41 > 0:01:43and has hitchhiked across Switzerland.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46All students at Clare College, Cambridge, they are the Clareites.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Now, you won your heat against the Wrestlers.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51What advice have you got for your team-mates
0:01:51 > 0:01:53- ahead of tonight's game? - Well, in our last game,
0:01:53 > 0:01:55we were picking our hieroglyphs rather randomly,
0:01:55 > 0:01:57and I now see the error of our ways.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00We've got a much better strategy for this game.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02And, additionally, we've all been informed
0:02:02 > 0:02:05to make eye contact with the other team at all times
0:02:05 > 0:02:07to establish dominance.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10Well, that sounds extremely sinister.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Part of your strategy tonight involves winning the toss
0:02:12 > 0:02:16but putting the other team in first. Gamesmanship.
0:02:16 > 0:02:17So, Fire-Eaters, you will be
0:02:17 > 0:02:20kicking off. Please choose a hieroglyph.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Twisted Flax, please.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- Will that be a good choice? - Oh, dear.
0:02:24 > 0:02:25It is the music question.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28What is the connection between these clues?
0:02:28 > 0:02:29Here's the first.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31# Well, honey, you can do it
0:02:31 > 0:02:33# Do it to me all night long... #
0:02:33 > 0:02:35I don't know what the song is. Any ideas?
0:02:35 > 0:02:37No? OK, next, please.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41# Hello? Did you call me? #
0:02:41 > 0:02:44No idea. Do we know who the singer might be or anything?
0:02:44 > 0:02:46- No.- Literally no idea? Next, please.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49'50S ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC PLAYS
0:02:49 > 0:02:50I've heard this, I think.
0:02:50 > 0:02:55# Well, I said come on over, baby We got chicken in the barn... #
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Next, do we think? Next, please.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00ROCK MUSIC PLAYS
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- That's Led Zeppelin, isn't it?- OK, so...
0:03:03 > 0:03:05- What's the song called? - # You need cooling
0:03:05 > 0:03:07- # Baby, I'm not fooling... # - Three seconds.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10BUZZER
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Forms of transport.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15I'm not sure that any of them
0:03:15 > 0:03:17involves a form of transport.
0:03:17 > 0:03:18So, Clareites, there's a chance
0:03:18 > 0:03:20of a bonus point.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22We think they were all sung on Top Of The Pops.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Well, first of all,
0:03:24 > 0:03:27that applies to almost every pop song ever,
0:03:27 > 0:03:28but funnily enough,
0:03:28 > 0:03:29not to all of these.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31So, that's not it. What forms
0:03:31 > 0:03:33of transport do you think you heard?
0:03:33 > 0:03:36Well, I was told by my team-mates it might be Led Zeppelin.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Right. Oh, you're thinking of a zeppelin
0:03:38 > 0:03:39as a form of transport.
0:03:39 > 0:03:40You're in a hurry.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Yeah, well, it is Led Zeppelin -
0:03:42 > 0:03:45- Led Zeppelin, Whole Lotta Love.- OK.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47We also heard AC/DC - Whole Lotta Rosie,
0:03:47 > 0:03:50Girls Aloud - Whole Lotta History, and Jerry Lee Lewis -
0:03:50 > 0:03:51Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On...
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Oh, I knew I'd heard the third one.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55- ..which does sound like the bus.- Yeah.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57But, yes, no forms of transport,
0:03:57 > 0:03:58and I don't think Jerry Lee Lewis
0:03:58 > 0:04:00ever did Top Of The Pops. THEY LAUGH
0:04:00 > 0:04:03No bonus points, then. Clareites, what would you like
0:04:03 > 0:04:04as a question?
0:04:04 > 0:04:07- Let's try the Horned Viper, please. - OK, the snake.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09What is the connection between these clues?
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Here's the first.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13- Sadness.- Blue.- So...
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Is this in the film Inside Out? The character Sadness is blue.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18- Yes, yes. Oh, I really like that. - Could be.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20I'm totally happy to go for that for five.
0:04:20 > 0:04:21We could go for another.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23- Shall we go for another? - Go for another.- Next, please.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25- Yes, go for it. - BUZZER
0:04:25 > 0:04:27These are characters in the movie Inside Out,
0:04:27 > 0:04:29and the colours that they are.
0:04:29 > 0:04:30You could have had five points.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33These are characters from Inside Out.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35Anger and Disgust.
0:04:35 > 0:04:36The little colourful creatures
0:04:36 > 0:04:39that represent those emotions.
0:04:39 > 0:04:40Well done.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Fire-Eaters, it's back to you for a choice.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44We'll have the Lion, please.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47The Lion. OK, what is the connection between these clues?
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Here's the first.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Ian R. Well, it could be lots of people.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53- Ian Rush, it could be. - THEY WHISPER
0:04:53 > 0:04:56I think it's maybe some sort of wordplay going on here,
0:04:56 > 0:04:58but I can't see what it is, so shall we just get another one?
0:04:58 > 0:05:00- Yeah.- Next, please.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Cameron O.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06The only person I can think of is David Cameron.
0:05:06 > 0:05:07I don't think that's it.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Oh, I know. Add the letter to that name, it becomes a country.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15- Yeah, you're quite right.- Yeah. - BUZZER
0:05:15 > 0:05:19We think that if you take the letter that comes after the word
0:05:19 > 0:05:21and you insert it somewhere into the word,
0:05:21 > 0:05:23you get a country's name.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24Very well spotted.
0:05:24 > 0:05:25You also get three points
0:05:25 > 0:05:26for coming in after two clues.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30Iran, Cameroon, Cyprus, Peru.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32We have taken out a letter,
0:05:32 > 0:05:33moved it to one side
0:05:33 > 0:05:36to disguise a country's name. Very well done.
0:05:36 > 0:05:37Clareites, what would you like next?
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Shall we try the Eye of Horus, please?
0:05:40 > 0:05:42I can't advise, but you've said Eye of Horus.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46That will be your question. What is the connection between these clues?
0:05:46 > 0:05:49- Here's the first.- Musician. - Peter Baker. Do we know who that is?
0:05:49 > 0:05:51- Did he change his name, possibly? - Shall we get another one?
0:05:51 > 0:05:52Next, please.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56I've never heard of that person. Sorry.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59I mean, she might not be a dancer. Next, please.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- Trainer Donald McCain. - I mean, people who were
0:06:04 > 0:06:06musicians or dancers...
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- Are these names ringing any bells? - No.- Next, please.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12- Oh, so, this is the former names... - Donny?
0:06:12 > 0:06:16- Geri Halliwell.- Geri. - They've shortened their names.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18- To just...?- Ginny McMath.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- Let's just go with that, yeah. - BUZZER
0:06:20 > 0:06:21These are all people who have that job
0:06:21 > 0:06:24and they've shortened their names for their stage name.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26So, it's Geri Halliwell.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28- Do we have anyone else? - Probably Ginny McMath, maybe. Donny.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30- Ginny McMath?- I can't
0:06:30 > 0:06:31take that, I'm afraid.
0:06:31 > 0:06:32There's a bonus chance for you,
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- Fire-Eaters.- We think they might all be known as Ginger.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37They are Gingers.
0:06:37 > 0:06:38You HAVE heard of that person.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Virginia McMath actually took
0:06:40 > 0:06:42the surname of her mother's
0:06:42 > 0:06:43second husband, Rogers.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Virginia Rogers, Ginger Rogers -
0:06:45 > 0:06:47the dance partner of Fred Astaire.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Ginger Baker, of course, the great musician,
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Ginger McCain, the horse trainer,
0:06:51 > 0:06:54and Geri Halliwell, Ginger Spice.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56All Gingers. So, well done.
0:06:56 > 0:06:57You get the bonus point,
0:06:57 > 0:06:59and which question would you like?
0:06:59 > 0:07:01- We'll have the Two Reeds, please.- The Two Reeds.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03OK, these are going to be picture clues. What connects them?
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Here's the first.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09OK. So, it is the labyrinth, but it's...
0:07:09 > 0:07:12THEY WHISPER
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Next, please.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16That's a canal with some barges on it.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Something about canal. Maze?
0:07:19 > 0:07:22- Or maybe it's just a maze rather than a labyrinth.- Maze.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- Barges. I don't know. Shall we get another one?- Yeah.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Next, please.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29- It's a hammer. - That's parts of the ear.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Hammer. Hammer. What, canal? And the first one...?
0:07:32 > 0:07:34- Yeah, the maze. Shall we go for that?- Yeah.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36BUZZER
0:07:36 > 0:07:38We think they might be parts of the ear.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40They are parts of the ear.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42We're looking at labyrinth, canal, hammer.
0:07:42 > 0:07:43You didn't need to see drum.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Parts of the ear. I heard you talking about
0:07:46 > 0:07:47the difference between
0:07:47 > 0:07:48a maze and a labyrinth.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50- What is the difference? - I don't know, I'm afraid.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51I tell you who does know -
0:07:51 > 0:07:52our question editor.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53He told me about this
0:07:53 > 0:07:55at great length over lunch.
0:07:55 > 0:07:56He's given me a note,
0:07:56 > 0:07:57which he scribbled down...
0:07:57 > 0:07:59It's something to do with the number
0:07:59 > 0:08:01of paths that go through it. A labyrinth only has one path.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Technically, a maze refers to a
0:08:03 > 0:08:04complex branching multicursal puzzle
0:08:04 > 0:08:07with choices of path and direction, while a unicursal labyrinth has
0:08:07 > 0:08:09only a single path to the centre.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11You know the really creepy thing?
0:08:11 > 0:08:12He's written that on the back of one
0:08:12 > 0:08:13of his own doodles of Joanna Lumley.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15You don't want to know
0:08:15 > 0:08:16what she's doing.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18So, that is the difference between a maze and a labyrinth.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21These all represent parts of the ear. Very well done.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23Clareites, you'll be getting the Water question.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26It's the only one left. What is the connection between these clues?
0:08:26 > 0:08:27Here's the first.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Oh, so, it's going to have a name. Next?
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- SHE MUMBLES - Next, please.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38- Oh, what's it called? - National Gardens Scheme.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40It's a prize, and the...
0:08:40 > 0:08:42I've no idea. Next, please.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- Is it a certain colour?- Could be.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- I've no idea.- Shall we get another?
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Next, please.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56- BOTH:- Yellow.- Let's just go yellow something.- Yeah, Yellow Pages.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58- BUZZER - They're all yellow.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00They are all yellow books.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Yes, The Yellow Book was that famous, scandalous one that
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Oscar Wilde was seen holding. Well,
0:09:05 > 0:09:06he was holding A yellow book and
0:09:06 > 0:09:08they said it was THE Yellow Book.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11Very scandalous. All yellow books. Well done.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13At the end of Round One...
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Onto Round Two, the sequences round.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Fire-Eaters, you'll be going first again,
0:09:22 > 0:09:24so please choose a hieroglyph.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26- We'll have the Water, please. - The Water.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28These are going to be picture clues.
0:09:28 > 0:09:29What sort of thing would you expect
0:09:29 > 0:09:30to see in the fourth picture?
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- Here's the first. - Who is that? I've no idea.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35- I'm really bad at recognising people.- Is it Jennifer Lawrence?
0:09:35 > 0:09:37I don't think it's her, but I'm not sure.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Shall we go onto the next one?
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Next, please.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44That's a minim. That's a minim, so it's a palindrome, possibly.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Well, it could be.- Yeah.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Could the first person possibly have a palindrome in their name?
0:09:49 > 0:09:51- Next, please.- Daryl Hannah.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54Cos it's ABBA. Yeah, so that would work.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56So, what's in fourth?
0:09:56 > 0:09:59- A three-letter palindrome.- Yeah.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03- Let's say, like...- Dad.- Dad. - BUZZER
0:10:03 > 0:10:05A picture of a father.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07And why would that be?
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Cos they're palindromic, and we think that the...
0:10:09 > 0:10:10I don't know who the first person is,
0:10:10 > 0:10:12but we think it's a six-letter palindrome.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Then it's a minim, which is a five-letter palindrome,
0:10:14 > 0:10:16and then ABBA, which is a four-letter palindrome,
0:10:16 > 0:10:19and a dad would be a three-letter palindrome.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Dad would be an acceptable answer.
0:10:22 > 0:10:23Very well done. We've actually gone
0:10:23 > 0:10:25with Mem, the 13th letter
0:10:25 > 0:10:26of the Hebrew alphabet.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28More in fitting with this programme, I think, yeah.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Do you want to guess the first one?
0:10:30 > 0:10:32- We think it might be Daryl Hannah. - It is Daryl Hannah.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35So, Hannah, the six-letter palindrome in her surname,
0:10:35 > 0:10:36reads the same forwards and backwards,
0:10:36 > 0:10:38and we're going down in the number of letters.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42A three-letter palindrome is what we wanted to hear. Well done.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45- Clareites, what would you like? - Shall we try the Lion, please?
0:10:45 > 0:10:47The Lion. OK, what will come fourth in this sequence?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Here's the first.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51- 2012 - Wolves.- Dancing With...?
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Oh, it could be football clubs that
0:10:53 > 0:10:56got promoted or relegated in certain seasons.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Could be. Could be. Next, please.
0:10:59 > 0:11:04- Are these other...? - It could be American things.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Can we just get another?
0:11:06 > 0:11:07Next, please.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09For all the help it will do us.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10I mean, after seeing Warriors,
0:11:10 > 0:11:12I would say it's animals, but it's not.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16- There's no team in American football called Rhinos.- 2015 - Foxes?
0:11:16 > 0:11:17Yeah.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21- Is there any...?- Oh! The nicknames of teams that won,
0:11:21 > 0:11:23- like, the Champions League or something.- Yeah, the rugby.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26- Yeah, rugby. OK, just... - Three seconds.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29BUZZER
0:11:29 > 0:11:31- Tigers - 2015.- 2015 - Tigers.
0:11:31 > 0:11:32Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:11:32 > 0:11:33So, Fire-Eaters,
0:11:33 > 0:11:35the chance of a bonus point.
0:11:35 > 0:11:40- We're going to guess 2015 - Rhinos. - And why would you guess that?
0:11:40 > 0:11:44- We think they are all rugby teams that have won...- Rugby league.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45Rugby league teams,
0:11:45 > 0:11:49and we think maybe that the Rhinos won it in 2014, and also 2015.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52They are the winners of the Challenge Cup in rugby league,
0:11:52 > 0:11:54and the mighty Rhinos did it again.
0:11:54 > 0:11:55Leeds Rhinos, of course,
0:11:55 > 0:11:572014 and 2015.
0:11:57 > 0:11:58You'll remember the scores, Tony.
0:11:58 > 0:11:59The Leeds Rhinos
0:11:59 > 0:12:01and the Castleford Tigers in 2014.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04- Oh, probably 30-24. - Well, it was 23-10.
0:12:04 > 0:12:05That's why you were thinking Tigers,
0:12:05 > 0:12:08of course. The Castleford Tigers were in that final.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10And in 2015, Leeds Rhinos and
0:12:10 > 0:12:13- the Hull Kingston Rovers. - 45-2.- It was...
0:12:13 > 0:12:14I mean, that's really good.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16It was 50-nil.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18You remembered that the Rhinos really dominated
0:12:18 > 0:12:19the match. That's a different
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Hull team, of course, than...
0:12:21 > 0:12:22The Wigan Warriors,
0:12:22 > 0:12:25they beat Hull 60-nil. It was a different Hull.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26- Ah.- Bad luck both times
0:12:26 > 0:12:28for the Hull teams.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30I could talk about rugby league
0:12:30 > 0:12:32all night, but we have to move on.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34So, well done, Fire-Eaters, for the bonus point.
0:12:34 > 0:12:35And your own question?
0:12:35 > 0:12:38- We'll have the Two Reeds, I think.- Two Reeds.
0:12:38 > 0:12:39What will come fourth in this sequence?
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Here's the first.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43OK...
0:12:43 > 0:12:45- lots of things, actually, so shall we just get one more?- Yeah.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47No idea. Next, please.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51He had four spells as prime minister.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54Yeah, so, Margaret Thatcher had one.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56- Gladstone had four. - Gladstone, yeah.- Shall we?- Yeah.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- Do you want to go for that?- Yeah. - The number of times that they...
0:12:59 > 0:13:03- Yeah. - BUZZER
0:13:03 > 0:13:05We're going to go for William Gladstone,
0:13:05 > 0:13:08- and then, in brackets, or parentheses, four.- Good quizzing.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11It is, of course, William Gladstone, brackets four,
0:13:11 > 0:13:14as all good quizzers know. What's going on here?
0:13:14 > 0:13:16They are prime ministers of the United Kingdom,
0:13:16 > 0:13:19and in brackets it has how many times they had
0:13:19 > 0:13:21- different sort of spells of being- prime minister. That's it.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23It's periods in office, isn't it?
0:13:23 > 0:13:25- Yeah.- Not terms because Margaret Thatcher...
0:13:25 > 0:13:26Continuous terms.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Harold Wilson won three elections,
0:13:29 > 0:13:31but it was two terms.
0:13:31 > 0:13:32Stanley Baldwin - three.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35And only one person has served four separate periods in office.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37William Gladstone, four.
0:13:37 > 0:13:38Clareites, what would you like?
0:13:38 > 0:13:41- Let's try the Twisted Flax, please. - The Twisted Flax.
0:13:41 > 0:13:42What will come fourth in this sequence?
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Here's the first.
0:13:45 > 0:13:46Guinea-Bissau.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48- It could be working along the coastline.- It could be.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50I know the countries in that area, if we get another one.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Let's just get another one. Next, please.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55OK, Guinea-Bissau borders Guinea.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58And then Guinea borders lots of places - Mauritania, Mali.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01If we're going along the coast, where is it?
0:14:01 > 0:14:04- So, then you'd have Sierra Leone and Liberia.- Shall we try that?
0:14:04 > 0:14:05I have nothing better.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08- Yeah, sure.- I like that. It's definitely going that direction?
0:14:08 > 0:14:09- You said Liberia? - I think it's Liberia.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12- BUZZER - Liberia.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Good West African coastal knowledge.
0:14:14 > 0:14:15It is Liberia.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17We're going down the coast of West Africa,
0:14:17 > 0:14:19north to south, of course.
0:14:19 > 0:14:20And after Guinea, as you say,
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Sierra Leone and then Liberia.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23Very well done.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Why are you so familiar with that part of the world?
0:14:25 > 0:14:27I went on holiday recently and my computer broke,
0:14:27 > 0:14:30and the only page I could load was about West African geography,
0:14:30 > 0:14:32so I learnt a lot about West African geography in that week.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34That's incredibly convenient,
0:14:34 > 0:14:36isn't it, for this question?
0:14:36 > 0:14:38That's brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40Back to you, Fire-Eaters. What would you like?
0:14:40 > 0:14:42- We'll have the Eye of Horus, please. - The Eye of Horus.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44OK, what will come fourth in this sequence?
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Here's the first.
0:14:46 > 0:14:47Lord Redesdale.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50- I don't know who that is. Do you know who that is?- No idea.- No?
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Next, please.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Mr Bennet. OK, this is Mr Bennet in Pride And Prejudice.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57He's the father of Elizabeth. Are these people who have
0:14:57 > 0:15:00lots of daughters or are they all characters in Austen novels
0:15:00 > 0:15:03or something like that? Patriarchs?
0:15:03 > 0:15:05We'll go back. Next, please.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08Tsar Nicholas II. OK, he was the last Russian tsar.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10- A certain number of daughters, maybe.- Oh, yeah. Did...?
0:15:10 > 0:15:15- One, two, three, four.- Yeah. Well, there's five in Pride And Prejudice.
0:15:15 > 0:15:16Are we sure they had five daughters?
0:15:16 > 0:15:19- Well, you said they had five daughters.- Hang on.
0:15:19 > 0:15:20We need someone with three
0:15:20 > 0:15:22cos it's going six, five, four, three.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Three seconds. BUZZER
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Who's got three daughters?
0:15:28 > 0:15:30- I need an answer. - Your friend, does he?- Yeah.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Andy's going to say someone.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34I've got a friend called Ally Carr. He's got three daughters.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36I'll accept that answer
0:15:36 > 0:15:38because you have an honest face,
0:15:38 > 0:15:41but I would like Ally Carr brought to me after the programme,
0:15:41 > 0:15:42the daughters introduced one by one.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43I want to look through
0:15:43 > 0:15:44his wallet for photos.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46If there are four girls in that picture,
0:15:46 > 0:15:47the point will be removed.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49We did want to hear someone with three daughters.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51We went with King Lear.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53- Of course.- King Lear - Goneril, Regan and Cordelia.
0:15:53 > 0:15:54Who were the people
0:15:54 > 0:15:55that we're looking at?
0:15:55 > 0:15:58I don't know the first one. Do my team-mates? I don't know.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00The second is from Pride And Prejudice
0:16:00 > 0:16:01with five daughters.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04- Tsar Nicholas II had four daughters. - A grisly tale.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06And then King Lear had three daughters.
0:16:06 > 0:16:07Lord Redesdale - do you know
0:16:07 > 0:16:09who his daughters were?
0:16:09 > 0:16:11- No.- It's the Mitford sisters.
0:16:11 > 0:16:12- Oh, OK.- The six Mitford girls.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14The daughters of Lord and Lady Redesdale.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16- I should have known that. - Someone with three daughters,
0:16:16 > 0:16:18for example, King Lear, or, as most
0:16:18 > 0:16:19people at home would have shouted,
0:16:19 > 0:16:20your friend Ally Carr.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23That is the right answer. THEY LAUGH
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Clareites, the Horned Viper
0:16:25 > 0:16:26is waiting there in the nest for you.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28What would be the fourth in this sequence?
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Here's the first.
0:16:32 > 0:16:36- Something...- It's 24 hours, but it still means nothing.
0:16:36 > 0:16:37Next, please.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42- These are not watches. - Let's see. I think they are...
0:16:45 > 0:16:48It'll be another day, but...
0:16:48 > 0:16:50- We're going to have to go next, aren't we?- Yeah.- Next, please.
0:16:52 > 0:16:542pm till three?
0:16:54 > 0:16:59THEY WHISPER
0:16:59 > 0:17:01I don't know. Coming back to the 24-hour clock,
0:17:01 > 0:17:04- does it give us anything?- 19...
0:17:04 > 0:17:06THEY WHISPER
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Three seconds. BUZZER
0:17:09 > 0:17:12One - 2pm to 2pm.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Not the answer, I'm afraid, so a bonus chance
0:17:14 > 0:17:15again for you, Fire-Eaters.
0:17:15 > 0:17:20We'll say one - 12 noon to 12 noon.
0:17:20 > 0:17:21You're very unlucky.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24- Ah.- It's one - 12am to 12am.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26- It's midnight to midnight.- OK.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28You should have gone with 12-12, midnight to midnight.
0:17:28 > 0:17:29Now, nobody recognises
0:17:29 > 0:17:30these periods of time?
0:17:30 > 0:17:32- I...- No.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34It is successive series
0:17:34 > 0:17:36of the TV show 24.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38- Oh, I never watched it. - You know Jack Bauer?
0:17:38 > 0:17:39It's sort of 24 hours.
0:17:39 > 0:17:40The first series,
0:17:40 > 0:17:41where it's midnight to midnight,
0:17:41 > 0:17:43he's trying to stop the
0:17:43 > 0:17:44assassination of presidential
0:17:44 > 0:17:46candidate David Palmer.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47So, we're going backwards
0:17:47 > 0:17:49from series four back to the first one.
0:17:49 > 0:17:50Series of 24.
0:17:50 > 0:17:5312 to 12, yes, but not noon.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55That means, at the end of Round Two...
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Connecting all the time now, and, Clareites, you'll be going first.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07That's of your own volition. You chose the order.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09So, please choose Lion or Water.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11- Let's go for Lion this time, please.- Lion.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13OK, you've got two and a half minutes
0:18:13 > 0:18:16to solve this wall, starting now.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- These are musical terms.- Yeah.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22- And... - SHE HUMS
0:18:22 > 0:18:23So, the Firth of Forth
0:18:23 > 0:18:25and a fjord...
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- So, a fjord is a water sort of feature.- A bight.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30- Are these all kind of watery things?- Yeah.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Lashing looks like a...
0:18:34 > 0:18:38- Coal miner.- I think it's a type of quantity of something.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42- Splice.- The lashing is a kind of water?
0:18:42 > 0:18:44Who the hell is Albert Ross?
0:18:51 > 0:18:53Can you see anything for miner?
0:18:56 > 0:18:58What about other groups?
0:18:58 > 0:19:01- Could be Colin Firth. People called Colin, maybe.- Yeah.
0:19:07 > 0:19:08Lashing...
0:19:08 > 0:19:11Flashing, splashing.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15THEY WHISPER
0:19:15 > 0:19:17These are definitely terms
0:19:17 > 0:19:19- on a music...?- Yeah.
0:19:19 > 0:19:20Albert Ross -
0:19:20 > 0:19:23that can't be a person, can it?
0:19:23 > 0:19:26Don't know if Rennes is a...
0:19:26 > 0:19:28- Petrol.- Petrol station.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31Petrol station, petrol tanker,
0:19:31 > 0:19:32petrol...
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Shipping forecast areas,
0:19:35 > 0:19:36like German Bight,
0:19:36 > 0:19:37Firth of something,
0:19:37 > 0:19:41sound and Albert Ross, maybe?
0:19:41 > 0:19:43- Yeah, that looks like it.- Rennes.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Standing end, turn...
0:19:53 > 0:19:56You can splice things together.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59- I feel like these are technical terms in a field.- Yeah.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01Don't know what, though.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04What do we think the first one...?
0:20:04 > 0:20:08- A miner can be also, like, a child.- 30 seconds.- Petrol.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- Petroleum.- Things that sound...
0:20:11 > 0:20:12Firth.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15- Homonyms.- The Firth of Forth.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17- Ten seconds.- Splice.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19- Bight.- Sound bite.- Try firth.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22Sound bite. Sound, sound, sound...
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- Ria.- And that's it. The time's up
0:20:26 > 0:20:27and the wall has frozen.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Defeated by that horrible wall,
0:20:29 > 0:20:32but you can still get points for the connections,
0:20:32 > 0:20:34so let's resolve the wall.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36There you go. That's how it should have looked,
0:20:36 > 0:20:38and there's your first blue group starting Schleifer.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40So, these are all musical terms.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43They are terms for musical ornamentation.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45Various bits of twiddling.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47And the green group, what can you tell me about that?
0:20:47 > 0:20:49- Types of knot.- Types of knot.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51Yes, they are. They are in knotting.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Splice, lashing, standing end, bight -
0:20:53 > 0:20:56they are knotting terms. Well done.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59- And the pink or purple group, starting ria?- Water?
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Is it sort of watery areas, like bays and things?
0:21:02 > 0:21:04- Geographical water features. - Geographical watery features.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08Well, they are. Inlets would be, I think, the technical term,
0:21:08 > 0:21:10but watery things, I'll take.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12And the final turquoise group, what's that?
0:21:12 > 0:21:13Could it be things to do with coal?
0:21:13 > 0:21:16- I don't know if they have coal mines in Rennes.- Yeah.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18- Cos petrol comes from coal. I really don't know.- Go for it.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21Hydrocarbon-type things.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Now, what I think is unfortunate
0:21:23 > 0:21:25is that not only did you talk about homophones,
0:21:25 > 0:21:27you particularly said that miner sounds like a child.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29- Also, it sounds like a bird, of course.- Ah.
0:21:29 > 0:21:34- Albatross, petrel, wren, mynah. - Albatross.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37They are homonyms for birds.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38- Oh!- Yeah, no, I wasn't going to see that.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40However, you didn't find any of the groups,
0:21:40 > 0:21:42but you did manage to tell me three of the connections,
0:21:42 > 0:21:44so that's a total of three points.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Let's bring in the Fire-Eaters now, give them the other Connecting Wall,
0:21:47 > 0:21:49the Water wall, see if that puts the fire out
0:21:49 > 0:21:51or whether you score highly.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53You will have two and a half minutes to solve it, of course.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56That time starts now.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00OK, I think there might be some...
0:22:00 > 0:22:02No, The Canterbury Tales.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04These are all in The Canterbury Tales.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06The Second Nun is, I think, one.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08I'm just going to cycle through these quickly.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15I think I already did that one. Never mind.
0:22:15 > 0:22:21- OK, so, it must be something else. - Lewis, Holmes - they are detectives.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24It's not something to do with...? No, I'm thinking of something else.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31- These are mystery writers, aren't they? Child, Cain - James Cain.- Mm.
0:22:31 > 0:22:32Henry Cavill.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35- Shall we try that and then...? - Ayn Rand was a writer.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38Yeah, but not really mystery. Miller, maybe.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41OK, I'm pretty sure there's got to be something in here
0:22:41 > 0:22:43with The Canterbury Tales, unless it's a complete red herring.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46There's going to be a word thing here somewhere, so... Liv?
0:22:48 > 0:22:50That's kind of an animal noise.
0:22:50 > 0:22:55- Neigh. So, neigh... - But there's nothing else.- Hmm.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03- Cain...- Dean Cain played Superman, as well, didn't he?
0:23:03 > 0:23:07- Reeve, Cain, Cavill all played Superman.- OK, anyone else?
0:23:07 > 0:23:08No.
0:23:09 > 0:23:13Shall we try Knight? No?
0:23:13 > 0:23:16- Who's another? So, just going through all the names.- Lewis.- Sure.
0:23:16 > 0:23:17So...
0:23:18 > 0:23:20What could false be? What's manciple?
0:23:20 > 0:23:22It looks like mandible, but it's not.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26Is that something to do with Roman armies or am I getting confused?
0:23:26 > 0:23:28OK, great, we've got something.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30So, what have we got rid of? We've got rid of Reeve.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33I'm just going to double-check this one again cos I...
0:23:33 > 0:23:36- Is there a child in it? - I don't think so, is there?
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Sure, OK, we'll try. We'll try that, then.
0:23:39 > 0:23:40Then a knight.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45- No, I don't think there is.- American authors - Miller, Rand, Child.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Lewis? Is it Lewis?
0:23:47 > 0:23:48Lewis. OK, Lewis.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51What, you think neighbour? Neighbour - is that...?
0:23:51 > 0:23:54- Lewis is an investigating detective, isn't he?- Yeah, Holmes.- Holmes.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58- They can't all be red herrings, can they?- Miller, Child? No.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04Ten seconds.
0:24:04 > 0:24:05Let's try something else.
0:24:13 > 0:24:14That's it. Your time's up,
0:24:14 > 0:24:16and the wall has frozen, but you found a group,
0:24:16 > 0:24:19and can you tell me the connection starting Reeve?
0:24:19 > 0:24:23- They're all actors who have played Superman.- They are all Supermen.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26The great Christopher Reeve, and we've also got there Dean Cain,
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Brandon Routh, Henry Cavill. All Supermen.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31And you can still get points for the connections
0:24:31 > 0:24:34in the groups you didn't find, so let's resolve the wall.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37There you go. Holmes, Child, Lewis, Rand.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39- Crime writers?- No, not crime writers. They're...
0:24:39 > 0:24:42- They're detectives. - Detectives, aren't they?- OK, so,
0:24:42 > 0:24:43we think they're all detectives.
0:24:43 > 0:24:47I'm afraid they're not. They are British female athletes.
0:24:47 > 0:24:48Oh, of course they are.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52Kelly Holmes, Denise Lewis, Eilidh Child, Mary Rand.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54- Yeah, I've heard of most of them. - No Sally Gunnell, of course.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Nobody that you've chatted to in an airport.
0:24:56 > 0:24:57That would be the problem.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00And what about the pink group starting false?
0:25:00 > 0:25:01Do we have any idea?
0:25:01 > 0:25:05- Neighbour, knight?- No? - I don't think we know that one.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08I can tell you, you put "hood" after them. Falsehood.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11That's liveli - livelihood. Neighbourhood. Knighthood.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14That's the word one.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16And the last turquoise group starting manciple?
0:25:16 > 0:25:19These are all people who tell tales in The Canterbury Tales.
0:25:19 > 0:25:20These are The Canterbury Tales, yes.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22You don't remember the poor old manciple?
0:25:22 > 0:25:24He's a sort of purchasing agent for a law court.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26- Tells a story about a crow. - Yeah.- The crow story.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28But you did find one group,
0:25:28 > 0:25:30and you've been able to tell me two connections.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33- That is a total of three.- OK. - Let's have a look at the scores.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35- Oh, I've heard of it. - That was that Barrie play.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37But the bell has gone for the end of the quiz,
