0:00:21 > 0:00:24Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong.

0:00:24 > 0:00:26Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong.

0:00:26 > 0:00:29Bong-bong-bong.

0:00:29 > 0:00:31We all know the tune,

0:00:31 > 0:00:34but who among us has paused, even for a second,

0:00:34 > 0:00:37to think about the lyricist?

0:00:37 > 0:00:41Hoping to escape that poor fellow's obscurity tonight are, on my right,

0:00:41 > 0:00:43Jeremy Partington,

0:00:43 > 0:00:47a history graduate who spent six months living in France

0:00:47 > 0:00:49dressed as a cowboy.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52Chris James, a software developer with a degree in civil engineering,

0:00:52 > 0:00:57who received a naked autograph from an England cricket captain.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00And their captain, Jonathan Carter,

0:01:00 > 0:01:03a former barrister who has twice reached the final of

0:01:03 > 0:01:04The Times crossword competition

0:01:04 > 0:01:07and once crashed a boat on the Norfolk broads.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10United by a love of melty clocks and Monty Python,

0:01:10 > 0:01:12they are the Surrealists.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15Now, you won your first game against the Genealogists,

0:01:15 > 0:01:17then you beat the Part-Time Poets to get to this round.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20How important is it to you to keep winning?

0:01:20 > 0:01:23Well, I think we consider ourselves fortunate that we've got this far,

0:01:23 > 0:01:26so if we can go a bit further, then all to the good, I think.

0:01:26 > 0:01:31You'll be trying to beat this time around, on my left - Phyl Styles,

0:01:31 > 0:01:35a secondary school teacher who woke up one day to find her car had been

0:01:35 > 0:01:39buried beneath the market stalls of a village fete.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43Tom Cappleman, a software engineer with an interest in Japanese anime,

0:01:43 > 0:01:47who owns a significant collection of 3D jigsaws.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49And their captain, Graham Cole,

0:01:49 > 0:01:52a computer science graduate who loves a puzzle and had his brain

0:01:52 > 0:01:55experimented on as an infant.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58United by a love of languages, they are the Verbivores.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Now, Graham, you lost your opening game against the Smiths.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04You're here as one of the highest-scoring losers.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07You beat the Channel Islanders and the Taverners to get through to

0:02:07 > 0:02:10Round Three. What do you think about tonight's opposition?

0:02:10 > 0:02:13Jonathan, by all accounts, is pretty good at the missing vowels.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16So our previous strategy of fall behind on the wall and then win by

0:02:16 > 0:02:19one point in the last round, might not work this time.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22Well, let's see. Why don't we kick off with Round One and see how

0:02:22 > 0:02:24you fare? You won the toss,

0:02:24 > 0:02:27but you've decided to put the Surrealists in first.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29So, Surrealists, what would you like?

0:02:29 > 0:02:31The Twisted Flax, please.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33The Twisted Flax. OK.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35What is the connection between these apparently random clues?

0:02:35 > 0:02:37Here is the first.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Next, please.

0:02:45 > 0:02:48Is it the actor...?

0:02:48 > 0:02:52Charlotte Gray?

0:02:52 > 0:02:55- It's not...- Next, please.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00They've all played Doctor No?

0:03:00 > 0:03:02No, it's Blofeld.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Blofeld, that's it.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06- Yeah?- Yeah.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09They have all played Blofeld in the James Bond films.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13They have all played Ernst Blofeld in the James Bond films.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16You didn't need the last and greatest one, Telly Savalas,

0:03:16 > 0:03:18On Her Majesty's Secret Service, of course.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20Which films did these actors appear in?

0:03:20 > 0:03:23Gray must be the recent one.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Waltz was Spectre, which was the last one.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27Christoph Waltz was in Spectre.

0:03:27 > 0:03:28Pleasance was...

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Gray was the original, wasn't he, in Doctor No?

0:03:31 > 0:03:33Savalas was Diamonds Are Forever?

0:03:33 > 0:03:35No. Charles Gray is Diamonds Are Forever.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38- Oh, right.- Right.- Telly Savalas, On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

0:03:38 > 0:03:39Donald Pleasance was in

0:03:39 > 0:03:41You Only Live Twice.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Blofeld. If you were going to play a Bond villain, let me ask you this,

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Jonathan, what would be

0:03:46 > 0:03:47your weird thing?

0:03:47 > 0:03:49A cat, a glass eye, what would be your thing?

0:03:49 > 0:03:52- What would be my weird thing? - What animal would you be

0:03:52 > 0:03:53stroking in the opening scene?

0:03:53 > 0:03:56Oh, probably an Alsatian.

0:03:56 > 0:03:57That would be a good one.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59Really stroking an Alsatian would be quite sinister.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Cos it's quite relaxing anyway.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03If you make the final, we'll try to arrange to have one here!

0:04:03 > 0:04:05It's worth getting there just for that.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07There are plenty that work on the production,

0:04:07 > 0:04:09so I think it can be arranged.

0:04:09 > 0:04:10Verbivores, what would you like?

0:04:10 > 0:04:12- Horned Viper, please. - The Horned Viper.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14What is the connection between these clues?

0:04:14 > 0:04:16These musical clues.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18First one coming in now.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22# I need somebody to be my baby

0:04:22 > 0:04:23# Someone to tell... #

0:04:23 > 0:04:25Next, please...

0:04:25 > 0:04:27# Her name is Noelle

0:04:27 > 0:04:29# I have a dream about her

0:04:29 > 0:04:32# She rings my bell... #

0:04:32 > 0:04:34Wheatus...

0:04:34 > 0:04:36Next...

0:04:36 > 0:04:37# Before you met me...

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Baby, teenage...

0:04:39 > 0:04:44- I think it's all just teenage. - Teenage.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47- Teenage?- That is the connection.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50- What did we hear?- The last one was Teenage Dream.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52The one before that was Teenage Dirtbag.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55- I don't know about the first one. - Yeah, Teenage Dream, Katy Perry.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57Teenage Dirtbag, Wheatus.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59The first one? Teenage Idol by Ricky Nelson.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02What do you think the fourth clue would have been?

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Oh, come on, what's the most famous

0:05:04 > 0:05:05song with teenage in the title?

0:05:05 > 0:05:07- Kicks.- Teenage Kicks, The Undertones.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10That's what that would have been, but we didn't need that one.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12You came in after three clues. You get two points. Well done.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14Surrealists, what would you like?

0:05:14 > 0:05:16- The Eye of Horus, please. - The Eye of Horus, OK.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18What is the connection between these clues?

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Here is the first.

0:05:25 > 0:05:26Next, please.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Are they Humphrey Bogart films with a letter changed?

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Yeah?

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Try that.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- Shall we go next?- Go on.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43Next, please.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Yeah.- Yeah.

0:05:47 > 0:05:53So, they're films with one letter changed,

0:05:53 > 0:05:56all starring Humphrey Bogart.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59They are Humphrey Bogart films with one letter changed.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01Capablanca would have been the last one.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04I think you spotted that after two clues, Chris.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06- Yeah, I did, yeah.- What should these film titles be?

0:06:06 > 0:06:09In A Lonely Place. Dark Passage.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12The Big Sleep. And Casablanca.

0:06:12 > 0:06:13I'd quite like to see The Big Sheep.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15I think that would be a really good version.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Verbivores, what would you like?

0:06:17 > 0:06:19- Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds, OK.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21These are going to be picture clues.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24What connects them? Here's the first.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Maybe a Rolls-Royce?

0:06:26 > 0:06:28You think it's Rolls-Royce?

0:06:28 > 0:06:29Next, please.

0:06:33 > 0:06:34A painting. Some kind of name?

0:06:34 > 0:06:36Could it be the artist?

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Next.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Oh...

0:06:41 > 0:06:43The tomb of the

0:06:43 > 0:06:46unknown soldier? Could be?

0:06:46 > 0:06:48Is it a Rolls-Royce soldier?

0:06:48 > 0:06:49Or Phantom, I don't know? Next.

0:06:52 > 0:06:53A stamp.

0:06:55 > 0:06:56I don't know.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Oh, we're just going to have to say something, aren't we?

0:07:01 > 0:07:02Erm...

0:07:05 > 0:07:08They all face to the left.

0:07:08 > 0:07:09They all face to the left?

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Well, it's true of the last one.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14And maybe the unknown soldier is facing to the left.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17I think that is not something that

0:07:17 > 0:07:19connects all four clues, I'm afraid.

0:07:19 > 0:07:20Though not a bad guess. Surrealists,

0:07:20 > 0:07:22would you like to have a go for a bonus?

0:07:22 > 0:07:24Led Zeppelin.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26No, that's not it either, but tell

0:07:26 > 0:07:28me about the second clue.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30The album cover for one of their albums, isn't it?

0:07:30 > 0:07:32It is the album cover for their fourth album,

0:07:32 > 0:07:34which doesn't have a title.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37And neither does it feature the name of the band.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39The tomb of the unknown soldier you recognised.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41That is one of the Queen's cars in

0:07:41 > 0:07:42the first clue, no numberplate.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45The Queen's cars don't have a numberplate.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48And stamps, they do not say British stamps,

0:07:48 > 0:07:49the country of origin,

0:07:49 > 0:07:51so they are all things that lack

0:07:51 > 0:07:53the traditional identification.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56You would normally see numberplates on a car, a title on an album,

0:07:56 > 0:07:58a name on a tomb or a country on a stamp,

0:07:58 > 0:08:01but not in the case of these four.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03So, no bonus point, but you may choose a question.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05- Lion, please.- Lion, OK.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07What is the connection between these clues?

0:08:07 > 0:08:08Here's the first.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13Next, please.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21- Is it in Russian?- The equivalent?

0:08:21 > 0:08:24I don't know, go for the third.

0:08:24 > 0:08:25..In the USSR, wasn't it?

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Yeah, yeah, so should we go for it?

0:08:27 > 0:08:29What was the year, though?

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Shall we go for it?

0:08:31 > 0:08:33- One more.- One more? Next, please.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37Yeah?

0:08:37 > 0:08:39Yeah.

0:08:39 > 0:08:44It's the Cyrillic alphabet and their equivalent in...

0:08:44 > 0:08:47- Latin alphabet.- In the... Yeah.- Or the Roman alphabet.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50That's absolutely right. So these are Cyrillic letters and the way you

0:08:50 > 0:08:51would pronounce them so...

0:08:51 > 0:08:53Suh, ruh, nuh, vuh.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55It's a pronunciation thing.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57Again, I think you spotted it after two clues.

0:08:57 > 0:09:01Because I remembered the Russian road signs have "CTOP" with C-T.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Oh, good memory.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05- Did you obey them?- I wasn't driving.

0:09:05 > 0:09:06LAUGHTER

0:09:08 > 0:09:10All right, Verbivores, back to you for the last question of the round,

0:09:10 > 0:09:13Water. What is the connection between these clues?

0:09:13 > 0:09:14Here's the first.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17James Watson's Nobel medal...

0:09:17 > 0:09:19- What happened? - Is that Crick and Watson?

0:09:19 > 0:09:21I think so.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Next, please.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31Yeah, holding company?

0:09:31 > 0:09:34Next.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Is it something to do with a certain metal?

0:09:40 > 0:09:41Erm...

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Platinum or... I don't know.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45Next.

0:09:46 > 0:09:50I think it's going to be some kind of metal.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52Or shared ownership?

0:09:52 > 0:09:56Two seconds.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58Er... Platinum.

0:09:58 > 0:09:59Not the answer, I'm afraid.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02So another bonus chance for the Surrealists.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05They've all had to be sold.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09No, they've all been...

0:10:09 > 0:10:11I'm afraid it doesn't work like that.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13Once you've given an answer, I have

0:10:13 > 0:10:14to take that as your answer.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16I think you can say that pretty

0:10:16 > 0:10:18much everything in the world has had

0:10:18 > 0:10:19to be sold. I know I have.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21So I can't really take that.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23It is to do with buying and selling though.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26Specifically, they've all been bought by Alisher Usmanov,

0:10:26 > 0:10:30a Russian oligarch who is part owner of Arsenal, and he also bought

0:10:30 > 0:10:34James Watson's Nobel medal in order to give it back to him, actually.

0:10:34 > 0:10:38Quite a nice thing to do. He bought holdings in Facebook and mines in

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Russia were the source of his income.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43Have you heard of him?

0:10:43 > 0:10:46- Rings a bell, I think.- I mean, that's my kind of oligarch.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49Owns pretty much everything and people don't really know his name.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51That's definitely the kind of oligarch I'd be.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53So, no bonus points.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56At the end of Round One...

0:11:00 > 0:11:02On to Round Two, the sequences round.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05The teams must work out the connection and then tell me what would come fourth.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07You'll be going first again, Surrealists.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09So, please pick a hieroglyph.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11- Horned Viper, please. - The Horned Viper, OK.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13You'll be seeing the first in a sequence.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16What would come fourth? Time starts now.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20I know who that is...

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Next, please.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25- That's the Tailor of Gloucester. - So it's Peter Rabbit,

0:11:25 > 0:11:28- the Tailor of Gloucester... - But what the hell is the sequence?

0:11:28 > 0:11:32What was the fourth one? Oh, God, no....

0:11:32 > 0:11:35- What was the third one? - Next, please.

0:11:35 > 0:11:39- Squirrel Nutkin. Is it... - No, it's not Jeremy Fisher.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42- Is it not Jeremy Fisher? - It might be.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44I don't know. Mrs Tiggy-Winkle? Madame Tiggy-Winkle?

0:11:44 > 0:11:48- I've got nothing else. - Yeah, go one, then.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50Madame Tiggy-Winkle.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52Not the answer, I'm afraid, so

0:11:52 > 0:11:54there's a bonus point for you now,

0:11:54 > 0:11:56- Verbivores.- Pierre Lapin?

0:11:56 > 0:11:58Pierre Lapin is the right answer.

0:11:58 > 0:11:59What is the sequence?

0:11:59 > 0:12:03They're Beatrix Potter stories in French but I'm not sure what the

0:12:03 > 0:12:06- sequence is.- Publishing order in reverse?

0:12:06 > 0:12:08In reverse, so the first one, Pierre Lapin,

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Peter Rabbit and then we're going backwards,

0:12:11 > 0:12:13so we started at The Tale Of Benjamin Bunny,

0:12:13 > 0:12:17then The Tailor Of Gloucester, then The Tale Of Squirrel Nutkin.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Mrs Tiggy-Winkle is... I think is

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Madame Piquedru la blanchisseuse.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24Ah! That was what I was going to say!

0:12:24 > 0:12:27Yes, indeed. I probably would have taken Madame Tiggy-Winkle

0:12:27 > 0:12:29if that was the answer in translation.

0:12:29 > 0:12:30But, yes, the laundress.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33Mrs Tiggy-Winkle is a laundress in the French title.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36But Peter Rabbit or Pierre Lapin is the answer.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38So, well done, you get a bonus point and you may choose a question.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40- Eye of Horus, please. - The Eye of Horus.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43OK. What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Here's the first.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48- Song?- Something in antiques...

0:12:50 > 0:12:51Next.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54It was a show in the '80s.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57They can't be just shows in...

0:13:01 > 0:13:05Next. It's Michael Aspel, isn't it? Isn't it?

0:13:05 > 0:13:08What's Michael Aspel present now?

0:13:08 > 0:13:09Does he do Antiques Roadshow?

0:13:09 > 0:13:12I think he did.

0:13:12 > 0:13:13So...

0:13:13 > 0:13:15- Yeah.- If that's all we know.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17Shall we go that? Yeah.

0:13:17 > 0:13:21- Antiques Roadshow?- Not the answer, I'm afraid.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23So, Surrealists, you have a chance for a bonus point.

0:13:23 > 0:13:27- Michael Parkinson? - No, it's a programme.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29Oh, is it Give Us A Clue?

0:13:29 > 0:13:31- Ask Aspel.- No, that's not it.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33You see, they're not all about Michael Aspel.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36- No.- Right.- Although they are all about the Antiques Roadshow.

0:13:36 > 0:13:40These are successive Antiques Roadshow presenters.

0:13:40 > 0:13:41Arthur Negus was a presenter of Going For A Song.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43Michael Aspel never presented Nationwide.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45Hugh Scully did, though.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47- Oh, right!- Michael Aspel. So we

0:13:47 > 0:13:49wanted a show presented by Fiona Bruce.

0:13:49 > 0:13:50The next Antiques Roadshow presenter.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53For example, Hive Minds, the BBC Four quiz.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55BBC Four! Who would want to present

0:13:55 > 0:13:56a quiz on BBC Four?

0:13:56 > 0:13:58Who'd want to do that?

0:13:58 > 0:14:00Who would want to be on BBC Four?

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Something presented by Fiona Bruce,

0:14:04 > 0:14:05I wanted to hear.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08So you're all in the right area, but not the answer.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10So, Surrealists, what would you like next?

0:14:10 > 0:14:13- Twisted Flax, please.- Twisted Flax.

0:14:13 > 0:14:16What would come fourth in this picture sequence? Here's the first.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28Next, please.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34- That's Mariel Hemingway. - Are you sure?

0:14:34 > 0:14:39- I think.- It's not her. No, it's not.- Next, please.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41That's Jake Gyllenhaal.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45Is it siblings?

0:14:45 > 0:14:47Is that Imogen Stubbs?

0:14:47 > 0:14:48You're right...

0:14:48 > 0:14:50- Kissinger.- Stubbs...

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Three seconds.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57- Anything?- No.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59Is it Shakespeare or something?

0:14:59 > 0:15:01I can't let you chat.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03Erm... Kenneth Branagh.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05No. That wouldn't be an acceptable answer,

0:15:05 > 0:15:07although I'm interested you say it. I'll come back to you.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09Verbivores, do you want to have

0:15:09 > 0:15:12- a go for a bonus? - Someone ending with -inger?

0:15:12 > 0:15:14- Schlessinger?- Something Schlessinger?

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Someone called Schlessinger?

0:15:16 > 0:15:18And why would that be?

0:15:18 > 0:15:21Well, we think... We could have got this completely wrong,

0:15:21 > 0:15:23but we think the first one might be Henry Kissinger and then

0:15:23 > 0:15:24Kim Basinger...

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Oh, right, OK.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28And then Jake Gyll-inger?

0:15:28 > 0:15:30Erm... No, it is Henry Kissinger.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33But that's not the answer. Now, I'm coming back to you.

0:15:33 > 0:15:34Why did you say Kenneth Branagh?

0:15:34 > 0:15:36- Shakespeare.- For no reason whatsoever.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38- To be honest.- Shakespearean actors. - Oh, OK,

0:15:38 > 0:15:40so you hadn't noticed it was alphabetical?

0:15:40 > 0:15:42It's Henry Kissinger, Imogen Stubbs,

0:15:42 > 0:15:44Jake Gyllenhaal.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46So we are going H-I-J.

0:15:46 > 0:15:49I wanted someone whose name began with a K, but it's got to be Katie.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51For example, Katie Durham.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53These are UK storms.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55You know they're given names? And these are successive storms.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57They're all from 2016.

0:15:57 > 0:15:58Storm Henry, Storm Imogen,

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Storm Jake and they named it after

0:16:00 > 0:16:02someone with a K, but it wasn't Kenneth,

0:16:02 > 0:16:04I'm afraid. It was Katie.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06Interesting coincidence.

0:16:07 > 0:16:08So, Verbivores, you don't get the bonus,

0:16:08 > 0:16:10but you may choose a question.

0:16:10 > 0:16:11- Lion, please.- Lion.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14OK. What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:16:14 > 0:16:15Here's the first.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19Right. Brown in green.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Next.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24Green in yellow.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26What's the sequence here?

0:16:26 > 0:16:28No, it's not snooker balls.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31No. Next.

0:16:31 > 0:16:36Yellow in orange. Oh, it is snooker balls, but it's...

0:16:36 > 0:16:39It could be red in red. It's the rainbow and snooker balls.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41So it's red in the colour red.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43- Isn't it?- They don't have orange in snooker.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45No, but it's part of the rainbow.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47It's red, yellow, green, brown for snooker, and...

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Yeah.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51The word red in red.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53Is the right answer.

0:16:53 > 0:16:54And I can hear that you know two

0:16:54 > 0:16:56sequences are going on here.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Snooker and the rainbow and both are going backwards,

0:16:59 > 0:17:00so it is snooker balls in reverse

0:17:00 > 0:17:02order of potting them and then

0:17:02 > 0:17:04reversed colours of the rainbow in

0:17:04 > 0:17:06the way we normally remember them.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08So red in red is the fourth one.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10Well done. So, Surrealists,

0:17:10 > 0:17:11please choose a question.

0:17:11 > 0:17:12- Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14What is a fourth in this sequence?

0:17:14 > 0:17:17Here's the first.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19OK.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Next, please.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25Oh, that's...

0:17:25 > 0:17:27- Tea For Two.- OK.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30- So is that...- I don't know.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32What was the connection, then?

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Next, please.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37Oh, so that's...

0:17:37 > 0:17:39So, tea. They're going backwards.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42So, tea, lunch, so something with breakfast?

0:17:42 > 0:17:45So, Breakfast At Tiffany's.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47A film starring Audrey Hepburn.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49- And why would that be? - Breakfast At Tiffany's.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52That's absolutely right. Breakfast At Tiffany's would be a good one.

0:17:52 > 0:17:56We went with a Kurt Vonnegut novel of 1973, Breakfast Of Champions.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58What's the sequence?

0:17:58 > 0:18:04So, they're meals of the day going backwards, so we think...

0:18:04 > 0:18:06- Louis Malle is... - That's probably dinner.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08- What is that?- My Dinner With Andre

0:18:08 > 0:18:10is that Louis Malle film.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12- And then...- Tea For Two, is it?- Mm.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14Dejeuner sur l'herbe.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16Or Luncheon On The Grass.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18I mean, I have a problem with this question in that I eat at least

0:18:18 > 0:18:21eight meals between breakfast and lunch,

0:18:21 > 0:18:23but they've missed out elevenses and tenses and nineses and all the

0:18:23 > 0:18:26various other ones, but you thought like the question writers,

0:18:26 > 0:18:28so well done. You get the points.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31Verbivores, one question remains for you, Water.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:18:33 > 0:18:34Here's the first.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37- OK.- Next.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42- Er... Conference.- Football flights?

0:18:42 > 0:18:43Is there something below conference?

0:18:43 > 0:18:46No, it's not summer, is it? Next.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50Summer, conference... Oh, it's...

0:18:50 > 0:18:53Erm... Conference season, November is when they do...

0:18:53 > 0:18:56It's nothing to do with the Budget, is it?

0:18:56 > 0:18:59It would be recesses of Parliament.

0:18:59 > 0:19:00And when's the next one?

0:19:00 > 0:19:03- Christmas?- I guess.

0:19:03 > 0:19:07- Yeah, it must be.- Yeah. May as well go with that.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09- Christmas?- Is the right answer,

0:19:09 > 0:19:11and why is that?

0:19:11 > 0:19:14Tom thinks it's recesses in Parliament.

0:19:14 > 0:19:15Well, Tom thinks rightly. You must

0:19:15 > 0:19:17have thought it was wrong or you

0:19:17 > 0:19:20wouldn't have blamed Tom so quickly, but that is correct.

0:19:20 > 0:19:21My evil plan foiled!

0:19:21 > 0:19:24They are House of Commons recesses going towards Christmas.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27Well done. So, at the end of Round Two...

0:19:32 > 0:19:35Connecting Wall time now and, Verbivores,

0:19:35 > 0:19:38you chose to go second in the earlier rounds, which means you've chosen to

0:19:38 > 0:19:40go first here. Would you like Lion or Water?

0:19:40 > 0:19:42- Lion, please.- OK.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44Two and a half minutes to solve the Lion wall.

0:19:44 > 0:19:45Starting now.

0:19:49 > 0:19:52- Emmeline Pankhurst. - Emily Davison, isn't it?

0:19:52 > 0:19:54The feminist.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58- Christabel, possibly. - Possibly, I can't see any others.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Annie.

0:20:02 > 0:20:03Parsley, dill is...

0:20:03 > 0:20:05Good, yeah.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08- Angelica?- And Angelica.

0:20:08 > 0:20:12What about carrot? Is that going to be...?

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Don't think you can call it a herb.

0:20:16 > 0:20:20Three strikes now.

0:20:20 > 0:20:24Fourth gold, fourth cap and fourth paradise, perhaps?

0:20:24 > 0:20:27What are the others? Riser, parsley, nosing and tread.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31- Talk about an early riser. - Tread water, riser...

0:20:33 > 0:20:35I think it has something to do with tyres,

0:20:35 > 0:20:39is there a riser in a tyre to tell you how high the wear is?

0:20:39 > 0:20:42- Stairs. Stairs have risers. - Stairs have tread.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44Or you can tread, is that right?

0:20:44 > 0:20:47I'm pretty sure stairs don't have parsley, do they?

0:20:47 > 0:20:49I'm not sure parsley would be...

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Depends what you're growing on your stairs, but... Nosing. Nosing.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53Nosing, riser.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56It was wordy ones.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58Players.

0:20:58 > 0:20:59Player, yeah.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02I think if we ignore parsley and just look at these.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04Nosing, tread, riser. I think it might be,

0:21:04 > 0:21:05if we don't have anything else,

0:21:05 > 0:21:09we could go with stairs. I mean, parsley might be some obscure thing.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11We're going to have to try paradise in case it's wrong.

0:21:13 > 0:21:17Go back, just. OK, it isn't parsley.

0:21:17 > 0:21:21So, paradise, parsley, errand and gold, cap would fit more.

0:21:21 > 0:21:23Paradise, parsley, errand and gold.

0:21:23 > 0:21:24And then the rest is more like...

0:21:24 > 0:21:26There you go, you solved the wall.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28So that's all the points for the groups.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30What about the connections?

0:21:30 > 0:21:33Christabel, Emmeline, Emily, Annie.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36They're the first names of feminist campaigners.

0:21:36 > 0:21:37- Suffragettes.- Suffragettes.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39They're campaigners for women's suffrage.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41Yes. So what are their surnames?

0:21:41 > 0:21:43Emmeline...Pankhurst.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45And Emily Davison.

0:21:45 > 0:21:46Christabel Pankhurst.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49That's right, that's Emmeline Pankhurst's daughter.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52- Annie...- Annie Kennedy.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54Yes, she worked with Christabel Pankhurst.

0:21:54 > 0:21:57She was arrested for disrupting a Liberal meeting.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00And she refused to pay her fines.

0:22:00 > 0:22:04And the Green group. Carrot, dill, cicely, angelica.

0:22:06 > 0:22:10- These are herbs.- Now, you see, they're not all herbs,

0:22:10 > 0:22:12I'm afraid. What they are all,

0:22:12 > 0:22:15and you could have just looked at it and said carrot and said they're all

0:22:15 > 0:22:18carrots. They are all types of parsley, types of celery, types of

0:22:18 > 0:22:20carrot. They're members of the same family.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23- Ah.- But they're not all herbs.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26And the pink or purple group, starting paradise.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Fool's, you can put fool's in front of all of them.

0:22:28 > 0:22:30That's right. Fool's paradise,

0:22:30 > 0:22:32fool's parsley, fool's errand, fool's gold.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35Parsley, of course, red herring for the previous group.

0:22:35 > 0:22:39And the last one, riser, tread, nosing, cap.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42They're staircases or something with a shaft.

0:22:42 > 0:22:47Shall we say... We'll do it with a shaft,

0:22:47 > 0:22:48a mineshaft or something.

0:22:48 > 0:22:52A riser can be a mineshaft, you can cap a shaft.

0:22:52 > 0:22:55- It's wrong, isn't it?- Phyl is shaking her head with a noise,

0:22:55 > 0:22:57because you know they are parts of the staircase.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59Unlucky.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02But four points for the groups and two points for the connections,

0:23:02 > 0:23:04that is a total of six.

0:23:04 > 0:23:05I'm going to bring in the Surrealists now,

0:23:05 > 0:23:09give them a new Connecting Wall and see what they can do about solving it.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11It will be the Water wall for you.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14Two and a half minutes to solve it, starting now.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19So, these are...

0:23:20 > 0:23:21Didcot, Bristol...

0:23:21 > 0:23:23Liverpool South

0:23:23 > 0:23:25is a station,

0:23:25 > 0:23:27but be careful, because it...

0:23:27 > 0:23:29These are aeroplanes, aren't they?

0:23:29 > 0:23:33- Bristol.- Bristol is an aeroplane.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41Eaves, flashing, dormer,

0:23:41 > 0:23:43gable.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45- Yeah. Bristol...- Leigh, Liverpool.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47- Shorts.- And there's airports in there.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50Warwick Castle, Howard, Warwick Castle.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Leigh, Howard.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Trevor Howard, Vivien Leigh, Olivia de Havilland.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58Oh, yeah.

0:23:58 > 0:23:59And Rutherford, possibly.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02- OK.- Three strikes now.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05So, we've got aircraft, Hawker Siddeley, Vickers Armstrong.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08Bristol. Shorts.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10What are the other ones? These...

0:24:10 > 0:24:12- Railways?- No, that's an airport.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14That's possibly an airport.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17- Yeah.- That's an airport. That leaves us three airports.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19Bristol's an airport, is it? There's three airports.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21We're going to have to start doing something soon.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23So, shall I do...

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Which one? East Midlands, Liverpool South, Bristol...

0:24:25 > 0:24:28I don't know what the other one would be.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30- Didcot's not that. - Didcot can't be an air...- No.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35Let's do the aircraft manufacturers.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Vickers, Bristol. Which was the other one, East Midlands?

0:24:37 > 0:24:39- Shorts.- Shorts.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42So what would these be? Stations, or power stations?

0:24:42 > 0:24:44No.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47- Didcot Parkway?- East Midlands Parkway, Warwick Parkway, yes,

0:24:47 > 0:24:50Liverpool South Parkway. Yeah, they're Parkway stations.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53- Yes.- So take those off.- Yeah, it must be that one. We can go for it.

0:24:53 > 0:24:56- Yeah, go on, then.- There you go. You solved the wall.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58Very well done. So that's four for the groups.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00What about the connections?

0:25:00 > 0:25:03What about the top group? Flashing, dormer, gable, eaves.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06They're all parts of a roof.

0:25:52 > 0:25:56This will determine who goes through and who goes through.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58Because of course, in our new structure, nobody goes home.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00I don't think anyone ever goes home,

0:26:00 > 0:26:02we just play and play and play and play.

0:26:02 > 0:26:06So, we've taken the vowels out of well-known names, phrases and sayings.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Because the bell has gone for the end of the quiz.

0:27:47 > 0:27:50That was a nasty couple of categories, wasn't it?

0:27:50 > 0:27:53Starting to wonder if you even want to make the final!

0:27:53 > 0:27:56I can tell you at the end of the quiz,

0:27:56 > 0:27:59the Verbivores finish with 16 points,

0:27:59 > 0:28:02but the winners with 20 are the Surrealists.
