0:00:21 > 0:00:25I'm going to begin tonight with an apology to Joanna Lumley.
0:00:25 > 0:00:26I won't say why.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29The agreement was that the apology be as brief as possible,
0:00:29 > 0:00:32lest an extended reference to Joanna Lumley
0:00:32 > 0:00:36reignite those synapses in our question editor's brain
0:00:36 > 0:00:39that have been so agonisingly and expensively
0:00:39 > 0:00:42rendered dormant by order of the court.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45Miss Lumley, we're sorry,
0:00:45 > 0:00:46but, thankfully, it was
0:00:46 > 0:00:49only squirty cream, whatever it looked like.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53On my right, Nina Grant,
0:00:53 > 0:00:55a postgraduate student who has a
0:00:55 > 0:00:59tattoo of her favourite extinct bird, the great auk.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Katie McGettigan, a university research fellow who,
0:01:02 > 0:01:05as a former employee of a mobile phone shop,
0:01:05 > 0:01:08witnessed Judi Dench trying to reclaim
0:01:08 > 0:01:10her lost James Bond ringtone.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14And their captain - Jenny Harris, a PhD student
0:01:14 > 0:01:16and keen choral singer,
0:01:16 > 0:01:19who once attended an Ancient Greek summer school.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22United by a passion for poetry, they are the Part-time Poets.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Now, you won your opening heat against the Oscar Men.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27How are you feeling about tonight's game?
0:01:27 > 0:01:30We're feeling good, confident, ready to make some connections.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32Let's see who you're facing this time around.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35It is, on my left, Jeremy Partington,
0:01:35 > 0:01:38a geography graduate and former archive assistant,
0:01:38 > 0:01:42who painted a sports hall at Dracula's birthplace.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Chris James,
0:01:44 > 0:01:47a software developer who once opened a bottle of beer for Bob Mortimer
0:01:47 > 0:01:51with his teeth. And their captain - Jonathan Carter,
0:01:51 > 0:01:53a former criminal barrister
0:01:53 > 0:01:57who has written a short comedy play about the law of murder.
0:01:57 > 0:02:02United by a love of asparagus, fish, wheel, they are the Surrealists.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Now, you won your opening heat against the Genealogists.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07What do you think are your team's strengths?
0:02:07 > 0:02:10I think we are reasonably confident on closed railway stations,
0:02:10 > 0:02:13'80s sitcoms and the poems of John Cooper Clarke.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15All of which could be coming up.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18But we won't find out whether they are or not unless we play Round One.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20What is the connection between four apparently random clues?
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Part-Time Poets, you won the toss -
0:02:22 > 0:02:24you'll be going first.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Which hieroglyph would you like?
0:02:26 > 0:02:27The Eye of Horus, please.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28The Eye of Horus.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30That will be the first question
0:02:30 > 0:02:31of the game.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32Your first clue coming up now.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Pink Pinky. Next, please.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Orange Clyde.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Oh, are they...
0:02:44 > 0:02:45Is this like Reservoir Dogs?
0:02:45 > 0:02:48I'm half thinking, but maybe another one.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Next, please. No.
0:02:50 > 0:02:51Oh, no, no.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Oh, it's the Pac-Man...
0:02:53 > 0:02:54- Oh.- Ghosts, isn't it?
0:02:54 > 0:02:56- Names of Pac-Man ghosts.- Yeah. OK.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57And the colours.
0:02:57 > 0:02:58- Yeah.- Names and colours
0:02:58 > 0:03:00of the Pac-Man ghosts.
0:03:00 > 0:03:01Names and colours
0:03:01 > 0:03:03of the Pac-Man ghosts.
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Almost certainly an inspiration for
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Reservoir Dogs,
0:03:06 > 0:03:08it is the Pac-Man ghosts.
0:03:08 > 0:03:09You didn't need to see
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Cyan Inky at the end there.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13- Yeah.- We once did one of our charity
0:03:13 > 0:03:15episodes with Charlie Brooker,
0:03:15 > 0:03:16we had a Pac-Man question,
0:03:16 > 0:03:18he got it so quickly, the first clue
0:03:18 > 0:03:19hadn't even come up.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21"Is it Pac-Man?" he shouted,
0:03:21 > 0:03:23as I said, "Here's your first clue."
0:03:23 > 0:03:24Very well done -
0:03:24 > 0:03:26they are Pac-Man ghosts.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Surrealists, what would you like?
0:03:28 > 0:03:30- Lion, please.- Lion.
0:03:30 > 0:03:31What is the connection
0:03:31 > 0:03:32between these clues?
0:03:32 > 0:03:33Here's the first.
0:03:36 > 0:03:37Next, please.
0:03:45 > 0:03:46John Terry's the footballer.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Is this captains? Captains?
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Next, please.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- Next, please.- Protector of...
0:04:05 > 0:04:08- Defence. Protect.- Yeah.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Defender, defender.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11Defender.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Defender is the word you want.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Defender of the...
0:04:16 > 0:04:17Talk me through the clues.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Well, the British monarch is
0:04:19 > 0:04:21defender of the faith.
0:04:21 > 0:04:22Flash Gordon...
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Had 14 hours to save the Earth,
0:04:25 > 0:04:26so he was defender of that.
0:04:26 > 0:04:27Yes, one of the defenders of
0:04:27 > 0:04:28the Earth - there were several of
0:04:28 > 0:04:29them, yeah.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31I'd guess John Terry must have won
0:04:31 > 0:04:32Defender of the Year in those years.
0:04:32 > 0:04:33Three-time UEFA
0:04:33 > 0:04:34Defender of the Year.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Seems like a nice guy, doesn't he,
0:04:36 > 0:04:38John Terry? I'm happy for him.
0:04:38 > 0:04:39And the first one?
0:04:41 > 0:04:43- No.- It's a sort of 14th-century
0:04:43 > 0:04:45political treatise.
0:04:45 > 0:04:46Marsilius of Padua,
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Defender of the Peace.
0:04:48 > 0:04:49So well done, you get a point.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51And back to you,
0:04:51 > 0:04:52Part-Time Poets, for a choice.
0:04:52 > 0:04:53Can we have Water please?
0:04:53 > 0:04:55You certainly can. What is the
0:04:55 > 0:04:57connection between these clues?
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Here's the first.
0:05:01 > 0:05:02Did he play...
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Guitar on Roll With It?
0:05:04 > 0:05:05OK, next please.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11- Mimed.- Maybe it's miming in videos.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13But I wouldn't want to jump... No,
0:05:13 > 0:05:15because in videos they usually mime.
0:05:15 > 0:05:16They always mime in videos.
0:05:16 > 0:05:17I don't know if he actually played
0:05:17 > 0:05:18the guitar in that track.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Somebody else might have played it.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21They mimed doing it in the video?
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Maybe we should have another one.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24Yeah, next please.
0:05:25 > 0:05:26Yes, he did do that.
0:05:26 > 0:05:27So he mimed it on the video
0:05:27 > 0:05:29but he didn't play on the record.
0:05:29 > 0:05:30OK.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32They mimed it on the video, but they
0:05:32 > 0:05:34didn't play it on the track.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Tell me something else.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Erm...
0:05:40 > 0:05:42I'm going to give you another go.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Are they credited with it, too?
0:05:45 > 0:05:46Or are they not featured
0:05:46 > 0:05:47on the track at all?
0:05:47 > 0:05:48I can't take it, I'm afraid.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50So I'm going to throw it over to
0:05:50 > 0:05:51the Surrealists for a possible bonus
0:05:51 > 0:05:53- point.- So, it was all on...
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Top Of The Pops.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57It was all on Top Of The Pops
0:05:57 > 0:05:58that they were miming.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00It is about Top Of The Pops.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Because on all pop videos there is
0:06:02 > 0:06:04some mime and some singing.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06It's not really a commonality.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08The thing is that when they appeared
0:06:08 > 0:06:09on Top Of The Pops,
0:06:09 > 0:06:10where they're supposed to be singing
0:06:10 > 0:06:12live, they were miming.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13Can you tell me anything about
0:06:13 > 0:06:15the particular clues?
0:06:15 > 0:06:16I can remember John... I've seen the
0:06:16 > 0:06:18thing of John Peel playing mandolin
0:06:18 > 0:06:19- on Maggie May.- That's right.
0:06:19 > 0:06:20Rod Stewart just invited him
0:06:20 > 0:06:22to come on and do it.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24That was for fun. The last one,
0:06:24 > 0:06:26All About Eve were the performers,
0:06:26 > 0:06:28and they just couldn't hear it.
0:06:28 > 0:06:29They just couldn't hear the music
0:06:29 > 0:06:31being played in. So they...
0:06:31 > 0:06:33SHE MOUTHS
0:06:37 > 0:06:38SHE LAUGHS
0:06:40 > 0:06:41For a choice.
0:06:42 > 0:06:43What would you like?
0:06:43 > 0:06:45I'll have Twisted Flax, please.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47The Twisted Flax.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Well, well, well.
0:06:49 > 0:06:50It's the music question.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Let's hope these aren't all silent,
0:06:51 > 0:06:53or it could be very difficult.
0:06:53 > 0:06:54I've got a knack for picking them.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56You'll be hearing your clues,
0:06:56 > 0:06:58and the first one is coming in now.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00# Gonna get through your head
0:07:00 > 0:07:02# What the mystery man said
0:07:02 > 0:07:03# Because I'm gonna... #
0:07:06 > 0:07:07Next, please.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09# You'll remember me... #
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Sting, Fields of Gold.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13OK, next, please.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16# Get on up on the floor
0:07:16 > 0:07:18# Cos we're gonna boogie-oogie-oogie
0:07:18 > 0:07:21# Till you just can't boogie no more... #
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Anything? Next, please.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26MUSIC: Nut Rocker By B Bumble and the Stingers
0:07:31 > 0:07:32Is it elements?
0:07:32 > 0:07:35I'm going to say gold. Gold.
0:07:37 > 0:07:38- They all have metals?- So often
0:07:38 > 0:07:40the answer on this show, isn't it?
0:07:40 > 0:07:41Not this time, I'm afraid, so a
0:07:41 > 0:07:43bonus chance for you now, Poets.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46We think that they are...
0:07:47 > 0:07:48Things that you might get if
0:07:48 > 0:07:49something bites you?
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Related to bees.
0:07:51 > 0:07:52Things to do with bees.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53Things to do with bees?
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Yes, I think stinging, rather than
0:07:55 > 0:07:56biting, is the...
0:07:56 > 0:07:57- Hives, yeah.- You can get hives, or
0:07:57 > 0:07:58they come in a hive.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00So we weren't sure.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01Absolutely right, the first one was
0:08:01 > 0:08:02The Hives. What else did we hear?
0:08:02 > 0:08:05Sting, which bees do.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08I'm not sure what else, though.
0:08:08 > 0:08:09Something to do with honey, maybe?
0:08:09 > 0:08:11A Taste Of Honey was the third clue.
0:08:11 > 0:08:12And the fourth one,
0:08:12 > 0:08:13this is the performers,
0:08:13 > 0:08:15B Bumble and the Stingers.
0:08:15 > 0:08:16So all to do with bees.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18That is absolutely right.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19You get a bonus point, then,
0:08:19 > 0:08:21and the chance to choose a question.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22We will have
0:08:22 > 0:08:23the Horned Viper, please.
0:08:23 > 0:08:24OK. What is the connection between
0:08:24 > 0:08:26these clues?
0:08:26 > 0:08:27Here's the first.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29- One. Gaelic football.- OK, OK.
0:08:29 > 0:08:30There's one ball.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32Next, please.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36One and three. Two divisions...
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Or is it how many points
0:08:39 > 0:08:40you get if you score...?
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Numbers worn by somebody, maybe?
0:08:44 > 0:08:45Next, please.
0:08:50 > 0:08:51OK. This is never going to be our...
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Let's get the last one, maybe,
0:08:53 > 0:08:54cos it might be the giveaway.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56Yeah. Next, please.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Oh, God.
0:09:00 > 0:09:01How many are allowed to shoot for
0:09:01 > 0:09:02goal or something?
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Differences between...
0:09:04 > 0:09:05Three seconds.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Erm, it's the...
0:09:12 > 0:09:14..number shirt worn by the attackers.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16I think that's a reasonable guess.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18I love the word "attackers".
0:09:18 > 0:09:19I'd like to see
0:09:19 > 0:09:20one of those on a sports team.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Not the answer, I'm afraid, so a
0:09:22 > 0:09:23bonus chance for you, Surrealists.
0:09:23 > 0:09:24- Chris?- Erm...
0:09:26 > 0:09:28The scores for a field goal and...
0:09:30 > 0:09:33..for putting the ball over the posts itself.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35That's right. This is the points you
0:09:35 > 0:09:37get in these various sports if
0:09:37 > 0:09:38the ball goes through the posts
0:09:38 > 0:09:40over the crossbar.
0:09:40 > 0:09:41That's absolutely right. Which one
0:09:41 > 0:09:43- of these sports are you a fan of, Chris?- All of them.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Big Gaelic football watcher, are you?
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Well done, you get a bonus point and
0:09:48 > 0:09:49you get the final question
0:09:49 > 0:09:50of the round. The Two Reeds.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52These are going to be picture clues
0:09:52 > 0:09:53because we haven't had those yet.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56First one coming up now.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Barbecue grill. Chicken.
0:10:00 > 0:10:01Next, please.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Next, please.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12That's The Jerk. So jerk?
0:10:12 > 0:10:13Jerk chicken.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16What are you going to say?
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- Jerk.- That's not very nice.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21It's not just barbecue chicken,
0:10:21 > 0:10:22it's jerk chicken, yes,
0:10:22 > 0:10:23that's absolutely right,
0:10:23 > 0:10:25you recognised The Jerk in the poster,
0:10:25 > 0:10:26didn't need to see the last clue,
0:10:26 > 0:10:28that's in Olympic weightlifting, a jerk.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31And what's going on at clue two?
0:10:31 > 0:10:32Some kind... Well, there must be
0:10:32 > 0:10:34some kind of concept in physics
0:10:34 > 0:10:36for a jerk, I suppose.
0:10:36 > 0:10:37That's the equation for it.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39It's the rate of change of
0:10:39 > 0:10:40acceleration. That's the jerk.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42If you change acceleration,
0:10:42 > 0:10:43it feels like you're being jerked,
0:10:43 > 0:10:45laughed the question editor earlier.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48He loves a maths question, loves it.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50That's right, they are all jerks,
0:10:50 > 0:10:52very well done.
0:10:52 > 0:10:53At the end of Round One,
0:10:53 > 0:10:54the Part-Time Poets
0:10:54 > 0:10:55have three points,
0:10:55 > 0:10:56the Surrealists have five.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01On to Round Two, the Sequences Round.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03What comes fourth in a sequence is what I want to know.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Part-time Poets, you'll be going first again.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Please choose a question.
0:11:07 > 0:11:08Twisted Flax, please.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09The Twisted Flax. What will come
0:11:09 > 0:11:11fourth in this sequence?
0:11:11 > 0:11:13Here's the first.
0:11:14 > 0:11:15OK.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Next, please.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Logan.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- There's a loganberry.- There is.
0:11:22 > 0:11:23That's in North America.
0:11:23 > 0:11:24Erm, next please.
0:11:27 > 0:11:28Ojos del Salado.
0:11:28 > 0:11:29OK, it has to be an order.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Eyes of... Right, we're looking for
0:11:31 > 0:11:32the next one, so Europe,
0:11:32 > 0:11:33North America, South America.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36- Africa?- Yeah, or Asia.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38But what are they? It's the name of
0:11:38 > 0:11:40some kind of thing.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Why on earth
0:11:44 > 0:11:45is it called that in Europe?
0:11:48 > 0:11:49Three seconds.
0:11:51 > 0:11:55OK. Erm, Asia...
0:11:56 > 0:11:57..gooseberry.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:11:59 > 0:12:00So Surrealists, you have the chance
0:12:00 > 0:12:02of a bonus point.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Africa: Kilimanjaro.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07That's not it,
0:12:07 > 0:12:09but tell me why you say it.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11We thought it was going...
0:12:12 > 0:12:14It would be Antarctica, wouldn't it?
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Because it's going, it's going...
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Yeah, highest volcanoes in
0:12:18 > 0:12:21the continents going anti-clockwise.
0:12:21 > 0:12:22Yes, that's not what
0:12:22 > 0:12:23the sequence is.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25The third one, anyway,
0:12:25 > 0:12:26you're looking at,
0:12:26 > 0:12:28would be the world's highest active
0:12:28 > 0:12:29volcano, so you couldn't get higher.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32The answer is Asia: Godwin-Austen.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Or I'd have taken K2.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38These are the second-highest peaks
0:12:38 > 0:12:40on their respective continents.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42But then the order is of height.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Right. So it's not a geographical
0:12:44 > 0:12:45order of continent.
0:12:45 > 0:12:46We've taken the second-highest peaks
0:12:46 > 0:12:47on each one,
0:12:47 > 0:12:49and we're going in height order.
0:12:49 > 0:12:50This is what you get after ten
0:12:50 > 0:12:51series. We did the highest peaks on
0:12:51 > 0:12:53BBC Four. I was a redhead
0:12:53 > 0:12:54and smoked 20 a day.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Now, second-highest peaks per
0:12:56 > 0:12:58continent in order of height.
0:12:58 > 0:12:59So no bonus points for you,
0:12:59 > 0:13:02Surrealists, but you may choose a question.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03Horned Viper, please.
0:13:03 > 0:13:04The Horned Viper. What would come
0:13:04 > 0:13:06fourth in this sequence?
0:13:06 > 0:13:07Here's the first.
0:13:10 > 0:13:11Decimalisation.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Next, please.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19So it would be 20p, would it be?
0:13:19 > 0:13:21It's the number of...
0:13:21 > 0:13:22Is it number of sides?
0:13:22 > 0:13:23Of the silver.
0:13:23 > 0:13:24No, because they're round.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Next, please.
0:13:27 > 0:13:2820p.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30- Why?- Ones that came in...
0:13:30 > 0:13:32It's when they came in and out.
0:13:32 > 0:13:33It's what happened.
0:13:33 > 0:13:34They came in first, then...
0:13:34 > 0:13:36Decimalisation, yeah.
0:13:36 > 0:13:3720p, I think.
0:13:37 > 0:13:394th: 20p.
0:13:39 > 0:13:40Is the right answer,
0:13:40 > 0:13:42and what's the sequence?
0:13:42 > 0:13:43The issues of...
0:13:43 > 0:13:45It's the issues of decimalisation,
0:13:45 > 0:13:46and then the taking out...
0:13:46 > 0:13:48No, the issues of decimalisation and
0:13:48 > 0:13:49the last one to arrive was
0:13:49 > 0:13:51the 20-pence piece in the '80s.
0:13:51 > 0:13:52It's just in order of introduction
0:13:52 > 0:13:54of decimal coins.
0:13:54 > 0:13:55That's absolutely right.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57And when was decimalisation?
0:13:57 > 0:14:00'71 but the coins came in in '69.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02That's right. Although in the early
0:14:02 > 0:14:0470s, that was when ITV had its TV
0:14:04 > 0:14:06series Granny Gets The Point.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Which was in which a grandson
0:14:08 > 0:14:09explains to a grandma about
0:14:09 > 0:14:11decimalisation to help her
0:14:11 > 0:14:12understand the coins.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14That's right. Fourth.
0:14:14 > 0:14:1520p would be the right answer.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Introduction of the 20p coin
0:14:17 > 0:14:18in 1982.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20- Poets, what would you like?- Lion, please.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Lion. What will come forth in this sequence?
0:14:23 > 0:14:24Here's the first.
0:14:28 > 0:14:29Next, please.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32OK. Alexander II.
0:14:32 > 0:14:33Nicholas II.
0:14:33 > 0:14:34Do you know these definitely?
0:14:34 > 0:14:35This is my history at A level,
0:14:35 > 0:14:36so I should.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Nicholas II is the one that gets
0:14:38 > 0:14:39done in the revolutions, isn't he?
0:14:39 > 0:14:41- Yes, he is.- So there's got to be
0:14:41 > 0:14:42someone else in between.
0:14:42 > 0:14:43Oh, is it Alexander III?
0:14:43 > 0:14:45Is there somebody between
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Alexander II and III?
0:14:47 > 0:14:48That's a really good question.
0:14:48 > 0:14:49Should we get the next one?
0:14:49 > 0:14:51That will call Alexander or Nicholas.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54- I think we should get the next one. - Next, please.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57- Right, I think that's Nicholas II. I think.- OK.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58Nicholas II.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Is the right answer.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02- And who are these people?- They are
0:15:02 > 0:15:03tsars of Russia up to the last one.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05They're the last emperors of Russia
0:15:05 > 0:15:07up to unlucky Nicholas II,
0:15:07 > 0:15:08executed by the Bolsheviks.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10That's right.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Surrealists, I'm coming back to you
0:15:11 > 0:15:13for a choice.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14Eye of Horus, please.
0:15:14 > 0:15:15The Eye of Horus.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17What would you expect to come fourth
0:15:17 > 0:15:19in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26Next, please.
0:15:32 > 0:15:33- Computer.- Yes.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Next, please.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Something to do with development.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Well, it...
0:15:43 > 0:15:44Things are going to get...
0:15:44 > 0:15:46It's not number, the answer, is it?
0:15:46 > 0:15:47You must start with database
0:15:47 > 0:15:49management, web development.
0:15:49 > 0:15:50Then you get the coding languages
0:15:50 > 0:15:52and then you get assembly languages,
0:15:52 > 0:15:55so it will be whatever the final, highest level of languages is.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00What are we going to say?
0:16:00 > 0:16:01Compilers?
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Compiler languages.
0:16:03 > 0:16:04Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Part-time Poets, would you like to have a go?
0:16:06 > 0:16:10Er...HTML.
0:16:10 > 0:16:11Not it either.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Do you know what sort of thing
0:16:13 > 0:16:14we are looking at?
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Well, it's... Well, well,
0:16:16 > 0:16:17they're sort of programming
0:16:17 > 0:16:18languages. Computer languages.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Yeah, they are.
0:16:20 > 0:16:21They're programming languages.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22Fourth, third, second
0:16:22 > 0:16:23and first generation.
0:16:23 > 0:16:24And we're going back towards
0:16:24 > 0:16:27- machine languages.- Oh.
0:16:27 > 0:16:28I mean, I would go through the full
0:16:28 > 0:16:29explanation of why,
0:16:29 > 0:16:30but we actually did a
0:16:30 > 0:16:31focus group of our viewers.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33It turns out they're not immortal,
0:16:33 > 0:16:35and so I'm not going to go through
0:16:35 > 0:16:37all the explanations of why this is,
0:16:37 > 0:16:39but trust me,
0:16:39 > 0:16:41machine languages is the answer.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43So no bonus points for you, Poets.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44But you may choose a question.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46- Water, please.- Water.
0:16:46 > 0:16:47OK, these are going to be picture clues.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49What kind of thing would you expect
0:16:49 > 0:16:50to see in the last picture?
0:16:50 > 0:16:52Here's the first.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54- Edward Scissorhands.- Yeah.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Next, please.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Oh, that's Andrew...
0:16:58 > 0:16:59whatever his name is - he does the
0:16:59 > 0:17:01tennis on television, doesn't he?
0:17:01 > 0:17:02- Andrew...- Is there...
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Is there something...
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Andrew Scissorfeet.
0:17:06 > 0:17:07Andrew, Edward...
0:17:07 > 0:17:08Oh, is it the Queen's children?
0:17:08 > 0:17:10- Edward, Andrew...- Do you think?
0:17:10 > 0:17:11Is that definitely an Andrew?
0:17:11 > 0:17:12I would go for Charles.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14You've got Anne and then Charles.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16I'd go for Charles Dickens.
0:17:16 > 0:17:17- Yeah. OK.- Why not?
0:17:17 > 0:17:18All right. Charles Dickens.
0:17:18 > 0:17:19Why would you pick Charles Dickens
0:17:19 > 0:17:22when you could have picked Charles Hawtrey?
0:17:22 > 0:17:23I will reluctantly
0:17:23 > 0:17:25give you the point.
0:17:25 > 0:17:26We had the wonderful
0:17:26 > 0:17:27Charles Hawtrey.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30- And why?- They're the Queen's...
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Names of the Queen's children in
0:17:33 > 0:17:34- ascending order.- Yeah.
0:17:34 > 0:17:35Reverse order of age.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37That's right. Edward,
0:17:37 > 0:17:38that's Edward Scissorhands.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40And it's Andrew Castle, the tennis
0:17:40 > 0:17:41player, now TV presenter.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Anne Diamond, we had at clue three
0:17:43 > 0:17:44so we needed a Charles.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46The Queen's children in increasing
0:17:46 > 0:17:47age and Charles Hawtrey was our
0:17:47 > 0:17:48lovely choice.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Charles Dickens was yours.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51Well done. Surrealists,
0:17:51 > 0:17:52one question left.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54It is the Two Reeds.
0:17:54 > 0:17:55What will come fourth
0:17:55 > 0:17:56in this sequence?
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Here's the first.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Next, please.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Oh, it's a scale.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12- D.- Next.- No, hang on.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14D.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16E flat. F.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19F sharp.
0:18:19 > 0:18:20I think it's just going up.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25Fifth. F sharp.
0:18:25 > 0:18:26Not right, I'm afraid.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28That would not be a sequence.
0:18:28 > 0:18:29Part-time Poets,
0:18:29 > 0:18:31I'm going to show you the third.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33You tell me what you think
0:18:33 > 0:18:34would be next.
0:18:34 > 0:18:35Oh, is it an inversion?
0:18:37 > 0:18:38D...
0:18:38 > 0:18:40No, that's too long, and I can see
0:18:40 > 0:18:41that you don't know it.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43These are Beethoven symphonies.
0:18:43 > 0:18:44Oh. No, no, it's not.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46So Beethoven's Second, Third,
0:18:46 > 0:18:47Fourth and then a big one,
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Beethoven's Fifth would be in...
0:18:50 > 0:18:52- C?- C minor.
0:18:52 > 0:18:53It's in C minor.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Yeah. Fifth Symphony in C minor.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57Well, if you don't know that,
0:18:57 > 0:18:58you may not know this.
0:18:58 > 0:18:59But it's an interesting thing
0:18:59 > 0:19:01about this symphony -
0:19:01 > 0:19:03it was the first symphony to use what?
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Is it cymbals or something?
0:19:06 > 0:19:08- No.- Some instrument.- Timpani?
0:19:08 > 0:19:09Trombones.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11First Symphony to use trombones.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13Yeah, C minor is what it was in.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16At the end of Round Two,
0:19:16 > 0:19:18the Surrealists have seven points
0:19:18 > 0:19:20and the Part-Time Poets have eight.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Connecting Wall time now,
0:19:25 > 0:19:27and, Surrealists, it will be you to go first.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Would you like Lion or Water?
0:19:29 > 0:19:32- Lion, please.- The Lion Wall, two and a half minutes to solve it,
0:19:32 > 0:19:34starting now.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38OK, so these are...
0:19:38 > 0:19:42They're kind of puritan people, aren't they?
0:19:42 > 0:19:45Fox, Wesley, Lively...
0:19:46 > 0:19:48Sorry?
0:19:48 > 0:19:50People who've started religion-type things.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52So who's the fourth one?
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- What did you press last? - I pressed, er...Smith.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Shall we do cricket terms?
0:19:57 > 0:19:58Yeah, bail.
0:19:58 > 0:19:59Right, slip.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Square.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05OK. Bewilder.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09Bewilder, baffle...
0:20:09 > 0:20:10Oh, baffle.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- Puzzle.- Puzzle.- Fox.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Could be stump.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17- BUZZER - Oh, it could.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19So we'll just go through all the variations.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21BUZZER
0:20:21 > 0:20:22Right, got one.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24Darby...
0:20:25 > 0:20:26BUZZER
0:20:29 > 0:20:31- OK. Right.- Three strikes now.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34So we've got Fox and Wesley go together, we know that.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Penelope Lively...
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Winners of the...
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Women's players.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Yeah, women... Mary. She's a writer.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45Mary Wesley. Penelope Lively.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48- Paris Murdoch.- It could be a Smith.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51So what are the others, then? The others would be...
0:20:51 > 0:20:52Starters of religions.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Plymouth Brethren,
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Christian scientists...
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Fox is Quakers.
0:20:58 > 0:20:59So who's the fourth one?
0:20:59 > 0:21:02- Smith.- Smith is... Smith is...
0:21:02 > 0:21:05- Shall we try...?- Let's try that. - With Smith?- Yeah.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08That's it, you've solved the Wall with a minute to go.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Well done. What about the connections?
0:21:11 > 0:21:14The first blue group - slip, square, yorker, bail?
0:21:14 > 0:21:17- Terms used in cricket. - Terms used in cricket.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19That's all it is. Terms in cricket.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21And the green group starting baffle?
0:21:21 > 0:21:23They're synonyms for "to confuse".
0:21:23 > 0:21:25That's right. To perplex.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Synonyms also for each other, of course.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29And the next group, starting Darby?
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Founders of religion sects.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33Founders of religious movements.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36That's right and specifically Christian movements.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38So who are we talking about?
0:21:38 > 0:21:41- Smith is...- Mary Baker Eddy.
0:21:41 > 0:21:42Founder of Christian Science.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45- George Fox.- George Fox, who founded the Quakers, yeah.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48Is it Abraham Darby of the Plymouth Brethren?
0:21:48 > 0:21:50No, John Nelson Darby is the Plymouth Brethren,
0:21:50 > 0:21:52and Joseph Smith is the founder of the Mormons.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Specifically Christian religions, they are all the founders.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58And the last turquoise group, starting Murdoch?
0:21:58 > 0:22:00Female writers.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Iris Murdoch, Pat Barker, Penelope Lively, Mary Wesley,
0:22:03 > 0:22:06they are all female novelists.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08So you found all the groups and all the connections
0:22:08 > 0:22:10and I'll give you a bonus for getting it all right.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11That's a total of 10.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Let's bring the Part-time Poets in now,
0:22:14 > 0:22:16give them a new Connecting Wall and see what they can do with it.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19You'll be getting the Water Wall cos the Lion's been taken.
0:22:19 > 0:22:23You have two and a half minutes to solve it, starting now.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Scull is the part of a boat.
0:22:25 > 0:22:26Yeah, Cox is... Oh, the...
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Cox, stroke, scull and blade?
0:22:28 > 0:22:30- BUZZER - Those are rowing terms.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- Crab, you can catch a crab.- OK, maybe scull, stroke, crab, blade.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Yes. OK, that's great.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37- Brian Clough, Brian Blessed, Brian May.- Brian Cox?
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Yeah. Brian Cox. OK.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- BUZZER BOTH:- Brian Lara.- Oh, yeah.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45- Without...- May, maybe.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47- Yeah. - BUZZER
0:22:47 > 0:22:49OK. Without Clough.
0:22:49 > 0:22:50OK, right.
0:22:50 > 0:22:51Three strikes now.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54We've got so much time, so canyon and gorge and gulch and chasm.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57All mean the same. But there's the Grand National...
0:22:57 > 0:23:00- Grand piano. - Grand Canyon and Grand Cru.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02So those are probably grands and then the others...
0:23:02 > 0:23:04Clough must mean a...
0:23:04 > 0:23:06- Yeah.- Like a dip in the landscape.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08- Shall we...- Shall we try that one? - Shall we try grands?
0:23:08 > 0:23:11- Yeah.- I don't think it is, but try it.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15That's it, you've solved the Wall.
0:23:15 > 0:23:16And very quickly.
0:23:16 > 0:23:17Train to catch? THEY LAUGH
0:23:17 > 0:23:19So that's four points for the groups.
0:23:19 > 0:23:20What about the connections?
0:23:20 > 0:23:24The first blue group - scull, stroke, crab, blade?
0:23:24 > 0:23:27Well, as I learned in Cambridge, these are terms to do with rowing.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30- They are. Were you a rower?- No.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32But eventually I had to learn some of the words
0:23:32 > 0:23:33cos I had friends who were.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Well, tell me what they mean, then.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Well, catching a crab was the one...
0:23:37 > 0:23:39I thought it meant literally catching a crab...
0:23:39 > 0:23:40Right.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43..on your blade, but it actually means when your blade
0:23:43 > 0:23:45goes in the water awkwardly and makes a little splash.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Yeah, apparently the blade handle strikes the athlete.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50- Right.- Blade, I think people know, is an oar.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53Yeah. A scull is a sort of oar for sculling.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55- Yeah.- Stroke is the position of the boat, isn't it?
0:23:55 > 0:23:57You sit at the stroke, I think.
0:23:57 > 0:24:02Apparently so. I mean, I've never learned about rowing so quickly.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05And the green group - Blessed, Lara, May, Cox?
0:24:05 > 0:24:06They are all Brians.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09They are famous Brians. Who are they, what do they do?
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Brian Blessed, famous loud...
0:24:11 > 0:24:13- Famous for shouting. - Loud, beardy man.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Brian Lara, the cricketer.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18- West Indies and Warwickshire, I think.- Brian May, the musician.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20And which Brian Cox am I thinking of?
0:24:20 > 0:24:22The incredibly talented actor.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23Oh, I was going to go for the scientist.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25I was going to go for the scientist as well.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27I'm thinking of both of them.
0:24:27 > 0:24:28Famous Brians.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31And what about the pink group, starting national?
0:24:31 > 0:24:33They are all Grand or "Grond."
0:24:33 > 0:24:35That's absolutely right. Grand National, grand piano,
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Grand Canyon and perhaps "Grond" cru,
0:24:38 > 0:24:40if you want to say it "grondly". THEY CHUCKLE
0:24:40 > 0:24:43And the last turquoise group, starting Clough?
0:24:43 > 0:24:46We think they are words for like a dip in the landscape
0:24:46 > 0:24:48or a kind of opening.
0:24:48 > 0:24:49Valley, sort of.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Yeah. Ravine would be another word.
0:24:51 > 0:24:52Geographical dips.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54That's absolutely right.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56So you found all the groups and the connections.
0:24:56 > 0:24:57I'll give you a bonus for getting it all right.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59That is the maximum of 10.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01Let's have a look at the scores.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04The Surrealists have 17 points.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06The Part-time Poets have 18.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09And if you were shouting, "No,
0:25:09 > 0:25:12"the Plymouth Brethren is John NELSON Derby,"
0:25:12 > 0:25:14then why don't you come along and have a go at the next series
0:25:14 > 0:25:16of Only Connect? Go to...
0:25:19 > 0:25:21..to find out how to apply.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24These are very close scores.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30and who is through to the next round.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33I will tell you that we have taken the vowels
0:25:33 > 0:25:36out of well-known names, phrases and sayings.
