0:00:21 > 0:00:23Hello and welcome to Only Connect.
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Coming to you, as always,
0:00:25 > 0:00:28from the Portmanmoor Road industrial estate in Splott.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Sherlock is also filmed in Cardiff,
0:00:30 > 0:00:33which is an interesting coincidence, because we're also a TV show,
0:00:33 > 0:00:37we're also full of mysterious clues, and when I play the violin I, too,
0:00:37 > 0:00:39sound like a drug addict.
0:00:39 > 0:00:43Heroes and villains of tonight's show are, on my right,
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Andy Davis,
0:00:45 > 0:00:47a civil servant and keen choral singer,
0:00:47 > 0:00:51who has run the Man V Horse fell race.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Tony Moore, a maths and computation graduate,
0:00:54 > 0:00:58who was injured by a firecracker ricocheting off a statue of Mao Tse-tung
0:00:58 > 0:01:00at the turn of the new millennium.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02And their captain, Jonathan Elliott.
0:01:02 > 0:01:07A PhD student who played a concert at a Belgian retirement home on
0:01:07 > 0:01:08Prince William's wedding day.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12United by a fever for flames, they are the Fire-Eaters.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Now, in your last match, you lost to the Korfballers.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Is your team prepared for a new challenge?
0:01:17 > 0:01:20I thought I'd try to inspire my team-mates by making a curry cake for us
0:01:20 > 0:01:23to eat in the green room. So hopefully that will work.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Good luck. You are facing tonight, on my left,
0:01:27 > 0:01:28Phyl Styles,
0:01:28 > 0:01:30a secondary school teacher who was lashed to a stake,
0:01:30 > 0:01:34burned and thrown in the back of a van when playing the part of
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Joan of Arc in a local theatre production.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41Tom Cappleman, a maths graduate who, as a schoolboy, played a game of
0:01:41 > 0:01:43cards that lasted a year.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45And their captain, Graeme Cole,
0:01:45 > 0:01:49a software engineer who once mistook a large farmhouse
0:01:49 > 0:01:50for the planet Saturn.
0:01:50 > 0:01:54United by a weakness for words, they are the Verbivores.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Now, in your last game you lost to the Surrealists.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59How competitive are you feeling tonight?
0:01:59 > 0:02:02Well, we're quite geed up by the fact that, on the Connecting Wall,
0:02:02 > 0:02:04we set a personal best of six.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07So we're confident that today's game will be won by
0:02:07 > 0:02:09a captain in a purple shirt.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Good luck with that.
0:02:11 > 0:02:12Now, Fire-Eaters, you won the toss,
0:02:12 > 0:02:15but you've decided to put your opponents in first.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18So, Verbivores, please choose a hieroglyph.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20- Horned Viper, please.- OK, the Horned Viper.
0:02:20 > 0:02:24These are going to be picture clues. Something connects them. What is it?
0:02:24 > 0:02:25The time starts now.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Shire horse.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32Next.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38- What's that? - Some kind of terrier.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Next.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45- No idea.- Chippendale?
0:02:47 > 0:02:50It might be... Oh, yeah, it might be Clydesdale, Airedale, Chippendale...
0:02:50 > 0:02:53- Are they all "dale"? - Shall we go with that?- Yeah.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Do they all end with "dale"?
0:02:55 > 0:02:57You didn't need to see the BBC
0:02:57 > 0:02:59sports presenter John Inverdale.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03They all end with "dale". What are we looking at?
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Clydesdale shire horse.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08An Airedale terrier, and a Chippendale.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10That's absolutely right. And for a bonus point,
0:03:10 > 0:03:13guess which of the four I keep as a pet.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Don't answer that, it can't be broadcast.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19Very well done. Fire-Eaters, what would you like?
0:03:19 > 0:03:21We'll have the
0:03:21 > 0:03:23- Lion, please.- The Lion.
0:03:23 > 0:03:24What is the connection between these clues?
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Here's the first.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30- Wymendon, OK.- Green.- Sorry? - Green, it's in green.
0:03:32 > 0:03:33I can see that.
0:03:35 > 0:03:36Next, please.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Brixiestan.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Blue.
0:03:45 > 0:03:46Next, please.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49Holeburne.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52OK, are they tube lines?
0:03:52 > 0:03:55But it's like, maybe it's old spellings of...
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Places on those tube lines.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01Yeah, District, Victoria, Central.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03OK. You know the answer, do you?
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- I think we'll go for it. - Two seconds.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10Old names of places on the tube lines with that colour.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11That's absolutely right.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14You didn't need to see the last one, Knottynghull.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16They are tube stations,
0:04:16 > 0:04:18with the names of those stations as they would have appeared in the
0:04:18 > 0:04:20- Domesday Book.- Ah, OK.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22What are the stations? I've told you the last one.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23- Wimbledon, presumably.- Mm-hm.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25- Brixton.- Brixton.- Yeah.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- Holborn.- That's absolutely right.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Holeburne. Or "hollow stream".
0:04:29 > 0:04:32It's medieval names for today's tube stations.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Well done. Verbivores, back to you.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38- Eye of Horus, please. - The Eye of Horus.
0:04:38 > 0:04:39It is the music question.
0:04:39 > 0:04:40You'll be hearing your clues.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44What connects them? The first one coming in now.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46# I was lost
0:04:46 > 0:04:51# The losing dice were tossed... #
0:04:51 > 0:04:52Next.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55# It's just a jump to the left
0:04:55 > 0:04:57# And then a step to the right... #
0:04:57 > 0:04:59THEY CONFER
0:04:59 > 0:05:00# With your hand on your hips... #
0:05:00 > 0:05:02- Time Warp.- Yeah. Next.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06# There never seems to be enough time... #
0:05:06 > 0:05:11- Is it "time"?- Possibly.- Do you want to have another clue?
0:05:11 > 0:05:13It could be "time".
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Time Warp, and this one's talking about time.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Go on.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20- Time?- Is indeed the connection.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23You didn't need to hear Time After Time, Cyndi Lauper.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25What did we hear?
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Time Warp was the second one.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31The third one was talking about time, but I didn't recognise it.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Time In A Bottle, Jim Croce.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36- And the first one?- Don't know.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38It's Tony Bennett. Just in Time.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Well guessed, you do get the points.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42Fire-Eaters, back to you.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44We'll have the Twisted Flax.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Twisted Flax. OK.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47What connects these clues?
0:05:47 > 0:05:48Here's the first.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01- Can we get it from this one?- I don't think we're going to get it.
0:06:01 > 0:06:02Next, please.
0:06:04 > 0:06:05Money back if he walks.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Oh, I don't know.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Do you know, any ideas? Next, please.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21- Slogans...- Yes, slogans for a product.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24- Maybe it's just a general...- I think we should have the last one.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27- Next, please.- Two seconds.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Are they slogans for products?
0:06:33 > 0:06:35I need to hear something specific.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37- Adverts that have been banned. - Banned.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39They are adverts that have been banned.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Yes, you fumbled your way there. They are slogans.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43And they have been banned.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46What are the advertisements for?
0:06:46 > 0:06:48I don't know.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50None of them? Have a guess.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51"The cleaner you are, the dirtier you get."
0:06:51 > 0:06:54What do you think that would have been?
0:06:54 > 0:06:56- Some sort of shampoo?- It was a shower gel.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Lynx shower gel. And they put posters up, people didn't like them.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00One of them was near a primary school.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Children were saying, "Why?"
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Those sort of women in bikinis in the shower.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06"Why would you get dirty?
0:07:06 > 0:07:08"These women are just in the shower."
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Not nice. "Money back if he walks," do you know what that was?
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Paddy Power on somebody in jail, in court.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Yeah, it was on Oscar Pistorius's sentence.
0:07:15 > 0:07:16"Money back if he walks."
0:07:16 > 0:07:18It's tasteful, isn't it? That's tasteful.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20"Hydrates and fuels you better than water."
0:07:20 > 0:07:23- What's that?- Is it something like Lucozade or something?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26Lucozade Sport. And people went, "Hang on, sorry,
0:07:26 > 0:07:28"hydrates and fuels you better than water?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30"I think we might take that down, have another look at the facts."
0:07:30 > 0:07:33And what about, "Are you beach body ready?"
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- Do you remember that one?- It's recent.- I remember hearing about
0:07:36 > 0:07:37this one, but I can't remember who it was for.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39It was Protein World.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42And lots of people complained because there were pictures of
0:07:42 > 0:07:44people with what they say is a perfect body.
0:07:44 > 0:07:45Not my idea of a perfect body.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48But, you know, thin, sort of wiry, sinewy people.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50They were asking the question, people complained, they thought
0:07:50 > 0:07:52it was a bit un-PC, that's not why it was banned.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55It was banned because it made sort of health claims that
0:07:55 > 0:07:59weren't quite accepted by EU law.
0:07:59 > 0:08:00There was a Cardiff bus company
0:08:00 > 0:08:03that had a slogan with pictures of
0:08:03 > 0:08:04models on the side of the bus
0:08:04 > 0:08:05undressed. And the slogan was,
0:08:05 > 0:08:07"Ride me all day for £3."
0:08:07 > 0:08:09That one was withdrawn at 11:30am on
0:08:09 > 0:08:11its launch day.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14All advertisements that were banned.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Well done. Verbivores, what would you like?
0:08:16 > 0:08:18- The Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds, OK.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20What is the connection between these clues?
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Here's the first.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24Joe Biden's 2008 presidential bid.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29- He didn't...- He ended up vice president, but I don't know.
0:08:29 > 0:08:30Next.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Players running on to pitch at Ibrox.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37They're supposed to do that, aren't they?
0:08:37 > 0:08:38Next.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42David Brent delivering motivational speech.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44That's got to be The Office.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Something about dancing?
0:08:46 > 0:08:47It might be, actually.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50It might be dancing. Did players dance onto the pitch?
0:08:50 > 0:08:52I doubt it. Go for the other one.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Next. I think it's going to be a dance, isn't it, or something,
0:08:55 > 0:08:56isn't it?
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Are they all done by dancing?
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Are they all associated with dancing?
0:09:02 > 0:09:05And how does that work in the first clue?
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Joe Biden must have done a dance to try to get people to vote for him
0:09:08 > 0:09:11- for president?- Simply inexplicable that he didn't become president.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Based on that. But no, that's not it.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16Fire-Eaters, you've got the chance of a bonus point.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20We were going to say something similar about dancing,
0:09:20 > 0:09:24but maybe they all featured the national anthem being played.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26They did not all feature the national anthem,
0:09:26 > 0:09:27but it is to do with a song.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29They all feature the playing of
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Tina Turner's The Best.
0:09:31 > 0:09:32You know, "simply the best"?
0:09:32 > 0:09:35That was part of Joe Biden's platform thing.
0:09:35 > 0:09:36David Brent, it plays in an episode
0:09:36 > 0:09:39of The Office. Players running onto the pitch at Ibrox...
0:09:39 > 0:09:40and Chris Eubank entering the ring
0:09:40 > 0:09:43do that to the strains of The Best.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Do you know, when we started this series, I said,
0:09:45 > 0:09:47"I want to have The Best being played as I walk on."
0:09:47 > 0:09:50And they said, "It simply wouldn't be appropriate."
0:09:50 > 0:09:52So we don't do that.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53All Tina Turner's The Best.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56That was it. You don't get the bonus point, then, Fire-Eaters,
0:09:56 > 0:10:00- but you do get the last question. Water.- We'll have water, then.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03In that case, I want to know, what is the connection between these
0:10:03 > 0:10:04clues? Here's the first.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10Norman Wisdon. What did he do in 2010 and 2015?
0:10:10 > 0:10:12I think we'll take the next one.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Next, please. Are they...?
0:10:14 > 0:10:18Are these possibly people who have died twice?
0:10:18 > 0:10:20When they fake... They had an obituary, then they died again?
0:10:20 > 0:10:22- I don't know.- I don't know.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29- Shall we go for one more, shall we? - Yeah.- Next, please.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31- Yes.- Definitely, yeah.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35OK, so we think these are famous people,
0:10:35 > 0:10:39and the first year in brackets is when they were reported to have died
0:10:39 > 0:10:40for the first time.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Sorry, when they actually died.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47And then the second date is when they were reported to have died,
0:10:47 > 0:10:49although it had actually happened some time back.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51That is right, you didn't need to see the last one,
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Leslie Nielsen, 2010 and 2016.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57These are people who died in the first year shown in the brackets,
0:10:57 > 0:10:59then what happened was people happened to be reading about them on
0:10:59 > 0:11:01the internet in the second year, enough times,
0:11:01 > 0:11:04that they appeared in the BBC most read stories.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07So other people saw it and thought they'd just died and mourned them
0:11:07 > 0:11:11all over again. Double deaths for those people.
0:11:11 > 0:11:12That means, at the end of Round One,
0:11:12 > 0:11:14the Verbivores have four points.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16The Fire-Eaters have five.
0:11:19 > 0:11:20Round Two. The Sequences round.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23You'll be going first again, Verbivores.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25- Which question would you like? - Twisted Flax, please.- OK.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27You'll be seeing the first in a sequence.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29I want to know what comes fourth.
0:11:29 > 0:11:30Time starts now.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Belgium.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36Next.
0:11:36 > 0:11:37Three, Luxembourg.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Order they entered the EU or something?
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- They all joined at the same time.- Next.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Two, Andorra.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50A number of things in these countries?
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Smallest neighbours of France.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55The first would be Monaco.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Oh, OK. Yeah.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01- One, Monaco.- And why would that be?
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Smallest neighbouring country to France.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Either by population or by area.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Interesting reasoning.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13Monaco is an acceptable answer, so you will get the points, well done.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16The sequence is number of land borders.
0:12:16 > 0:12:17That's what the numbers are at the beginning.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Four, three, two, we are looking for somewhere with only one land border.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22We had the UK.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24But there's lots of examples. And Monaco is one.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27Whether they are the smallest neighbours of France...
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Now you get into the complicated
0:12:29 > 0:12:30world of, are you including
0:12:30 > 0:12:34French Guiana, is it just France, is it population, is it geography?
0:12:34 > 0:12:37I'm going to allow people to debate that on the internet, all I
0:12:37 > 0:12:40want to hear is what comes fourth. Monaco will do. Well done.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Fire-Eaters, back to you.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44- What would you like?- OK. We'll have the Eye of Horus, please.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46The Eye of Horus. OK.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48What comes fourth in this sequence?
0:12:48 > 0:12:49Here's the first.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55- N could be North.- It's got a fraction...
0:12:57 > 0:13:00- I think we should have another clue. - Next, please.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04OK, it's proportion of... No, it's not proportion of things in the air.
0:13:04 > 0:13:05No.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Hydrogen's not...
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Next, please.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14- Is that a C?- Carbon, so it could be...
0:13:14 > 0:13:15Is it...?
0:13:17 > 0:13:19- Is it C?- C, it's a C.
0:13:19 > 0:13:20That's a C.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27- It might be...- Yes.
0:13:27 > 0:13:28Two seconds.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33OK. So, we think there's going to be
0:13:33 > 0:13:35a circle, and inside the middle of the circle
0:13:35 > 0:13:38there's going to be a capital letter O,
0:13:38 > 0:13:42and then there is going to be some adornment with various sectors.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Can you be a bit more specific when you say "various sectors"?
0:13:47 > 0:13:48The rest of the...
0:13:50 > 0:13:51The rest of the circle?
0:13:53 > 0:13:56We think it might fill up most of the rest of the circle,
0:13:56 > 0:14:00- the final sector.- I will take most of the rest of the circle as being
0:14:00 > 0:14:01correct. What are we looking at?
0:14:01 > 0:14:05We think these might be the most abundant elements in the human body.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07It is the composition of the human body.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09And we're looking at nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon,
0:14:09 > 0:14:12and then oxygen is actually 65.5%.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14So most of the rest of the circle.
0:14:14 > 0:14:15It's all the rest of the circle,
0:14:15 > 0:14:17unless you include the little sliver
0:14:17 > 0:14:20that we've already got, which is "other stuff".
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Verbivores, what would you like?
0:14:22 > 0:14:23- Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25OK. What will come fourth in this sequence?
0:14:25 > 0:14:26Here's the first.
0:14:28 > 0:14:29Sigma 30...
0:14:29 > 0:14:31That's an M on its side.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34- And it's the 13th letter of the alphabet.- Yeah, we're going...
0:14:34 > 0:14:37M, N, O, P.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39Am I making up my own question?
0:14:39 > 0:14:43That sounds reasonable. Do you want to go for it for five?
0:14:43 > 0:14:45Let's do it.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48A P on its side, and the number 16.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Well done. That is correct.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54Yes. You didn't fall into the trap that these look like Greek letters.
0:14:54 > 0:14:55They are actually just normal Roman
0:14:55 > 0:14:57letters on their sides,
0:14:57 > 0:14:59so it's just the letter M on its side,
0:14:59 > 0:15:01it's the 13th letter of the alphabet.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04And you correctly surmised we were going forwards towards P,
0:15:04 > 0:15:06which is number 16. Well done.
0:15:08 > 0:15:09Fire-Eaters, what would you like?
0:15:09 > 0:15:11- We'll have the Lion, please. - The Lion.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13OK. These are going to be picture clues.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15What would you expect to see in the fourth picture?
0:15:15 > 0:15:16Here's the first.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19- York. - Are you sure it's York?
0:15:19 > 0:15:23Durham, no, it's Durham.
0:15:23 > 0:15:24Next, please.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27That's St Pauls. So...
0:15:32 > 0:15:35- I don't know.- Do we know for certain what the first one is?
0:15:35 > 0:15:38- I think we should have the next one. - Yeah.- Shall we think about it a
0:15:38 > 0:15:43- little bit?- Do we know it?- I don't think we know it. Next, please.
0:15:43 > 0:15:47- That's Notre. - Is it Notre Dame?
0:15:47 > 0:15:50It's got that big window.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54- Any ideas?- Cathedrals?
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Two seconds.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Don't know.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Erm, a picture of Cologne Cathedral.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Although if you can persuade me
0:16:04 > 0:16:05there's a valid sequence,
0:16:05 > 0:16:06I might give it to you. What would it be?
0:16:06 > 0:16:11We were thinking it might be the largest cathedrals in Europe, say,
0:16:11 > 0:16:12- in order of... - I see.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14No, they are not the largest
0:16:14 > 0:16:15cathedrals in Europe.
0:16:15 > 0:16:16So, Verbivores,
0:16:16 > 0:16:17would you like a bonus point?
0:16:17 > 0:16:20- Let's go... - They're all in London, aren't they?
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Let's go... Well, we'll have to pick something.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Number one, Westminster Abbey.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29Those are actually the cathedrals of
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Durham, London and York.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35So the answer would be Canterbury.
0:16:35 > 0:16:36It's clergy.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Clergy in the Church of England, and we're going upwards in seniority.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41So the Bishop of Durham, Bishop of London, Archbishop of York, and we
0:16:41 > 0:16:44want to hear Archbishop of Canterbury.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47So, no bonus point, Verbivores, but you may choose a question.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49- Horned Viper, please. - The Horned Viper.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52OK. What would come fourth in this sequence?
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Here's the first.
0:16:55 > 0:16:56Tours 1940.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Next.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Bordeaux 1940.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04Is this attempted landings in France?
0:17:04 > 0:17:05Is it going to be Normandy?
0:17:05 > 0:17:06Bombings?
0:17:08 > 0:17:12- 1944.- Could be.- Is it '44? - '44 was the Normandy landings.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Do we want to see the next one, or...?
0:17:14 > 0:17:16- Yeah.- Next, please.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20- Vichy.- This is where the government was, presumably.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24- Yeah. - So, Paris 1944 to present day.
0:17:24 > 0:17:25Might as well, yeah.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Paris, 1944 to present.
0:17:29 > 0:17:30Is the right answer.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32And as I heard you say, this is
0:17:32 > 0:17:34locations of French government.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37And it moved in 1944 to Paris.
0:17:37 > 0:17:38Well done. Fire-Eaters,
0:17:38 > 0:17:40one question remains again.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43It is water. What would come fourth in this sequence?
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Here's the first.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47Tilted lady.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49This could be lots of things. It could be a dame,
0:17:49 > 0:17:51it could be a baroness.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54Could be anything. Shall we just go for another one?
0:17:54 > 0:17:55- Yeah.- I think we probably ought to.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Next, please.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Ancient Greek township is called polis.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06So, no, I don't know.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09OK, I think we should go for another one. We have to, really.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Next, please.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15Two nickels is a dime. So we've got a dame, something, dime.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17It's going to be dome.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Just say the Eden Project.
0:18:21 > 0:18:22Erm, erm...
0:18:22 > 0:18:26Something which is round and sort of like hemispherical.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29- On top of a building. - For example?
0:18:29 > 0:18:31- I'm told The Eden Project. - Eden Project biomes.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33I'll take it. We went with head.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35But why would they both be correct?
0:18:35 > 0:18:39So, it's dame, deme or de-me, or something like that,
0:18:39 > 0:18:40dime and dome.
0:18:40 > 0:18:41Yes, deme is the ancient
0:18:41 > 0:18:42Greek township.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44So, we're going through the vowels.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46Dame, deme, dime, we want to hear something with an O.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Dome. For example, a biosphere
0:18:48 > 0:18:50or a head.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53That means at the end of round two
0:18:53 > 0:18:54the Fire-Eaters have 9 points.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57The Verbivores have 13.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01Connecting Wall time now.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03And Fire-Eaters, you'll be going first,
0:19:03 > 0:19:06so please choose Lion or Water.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08We'll have the Lion wall, please.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10OK, you have two and half minutes to solve the Lion wall,
0:19:10 > 0:19:12starting now.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Jars. Cookie jar.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16So it could be jar.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Leyden jar. They're all types of jar.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23- Broad, Anderson. - Stokes. Root.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25These are all cricketers. Cook. Cook is as well.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28- BUZZ - Yeah.- So...
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Shall we start thinking about the other things as well?
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Shall I stop...? We've got that.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34So, broad beans, lima beans, and runner beans.
0:19:34 > 0:19:35Navy beans are a made-up bean.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Fore, Tonka, Type and Over, what could they be?
0:19:39 > 0:19:42What is Tonka? I don't have a clue what this is.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- Is there anything else? We haven't had a word thing yet.- No.
0:19:50 > 0:19:51Over.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55We haven't, so we haven't. This isn't really a word thing.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58We could have bean. You said navy bean is fake.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02A string bean's a type of bean. Forebean, tonka bean...
0:20:02 > 0:20:04- Overarm, forearm. - Navy arm.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07Runner arm. Broad arm.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11- I don't know what this is. You think it's a toy manufacturer?- Yeah.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13Can anything else be a toy manufacturer?
0:20:13 > 0:20:16Tonka trucks, you say you have. Any other type of truck?
0:20:16 > 0:20:17Navy truck?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21We might as well wait a little bit.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22I'm fairly sure of the beans.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24Is there such a thing as an over bean, a type bean,
0:20:24 > 0:20:26- a Tonka bean or a fore bean? - Face.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Face, yeah.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Forearm. Overarm.
0:20:31 > 0:20:32I think these must be beans.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34There must be something else.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36But there's no point going for it yet if that's right,
0:20:36 > 0:20:39we should give ourselves a little bit of time at the end. Erm...
0:20:39 > 0:20:42I just don't know what these are. Fore, Tonka, type, over.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43Is it a word thing?
0:20:43 > 0:20:45Tonka, fore, type...
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Could they all...?
0:20:49 > 0:20:53- Tonka truck, Tonka arm... - Could Tonka be a bean?
0:20:53 > 0:20:55It could well be a bean, couldn't it?
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Yeah, could be. Navy arm, type arm, maybe.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59- Shall I try the beans, then?- Yeah. - So, what shall we go for?
0:20:59 > 0:21:01- Fourth one? - Tonka.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- BUZZ - I shall try type.
0:21:04 > 0:21:05We haven't got much time.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08OK. Overarm.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Forearm. Runner arm. Broad arm.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13- OK. What shall I do? And navy?- Yeah. - 30 seconds.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16- BUZZ - No.- OK. Broad arm, possibly.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20- Maybe those four are. - These four here?- Yeah.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- Shall I go for it? - Yeah.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25You solved the wall, very well done.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27What about the connections?
0:21:27 > 0:21:29Canopic, Bell, Cookie, Leyden.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31- Types of jar. - They are all jars.
0:21:31 > 0:21:34And the Green group, starting Root?
0:21:34 > 0:21:36These are cricketers who play for England.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39They are. Root, Cook, Stokes, Anderson, all cricketers.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43And the next one. Runner, lima, tonka, navy.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45We think these are types of bean.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47That's right. Tonka Bean - people use it instead of vanilla.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49- OK.- Sort of a sweet kind of a bean.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51What about the last turquoise group?
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Broad, over, fore, type.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54Can't think of anything else apart from arm.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58We think they might all be able to be followed with the word arm.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02Type arm? Broad arm?
0:22:02 > 0:22:04I think they're not really things.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06The word you're looking for is cast.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09Broadcast, overcast, forecast, typecast.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12I can't make type arm mean anything, I'm afraid.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- TypING arm, maybe.- Not sure about broad arm either, to be honest.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Not quite. But you did find all four groups and three of the connections,
0:22:18 > 0:22:20that is a total of seven. Let's bring in the Verbivores now,
0:22:20 > 0:22:23and give them the other Connecting Wall,
0:22:23 > 0:22:25the water wall, and see what they can do about solving it.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27You have two and a half minutes,
0:22:27 > 0:22:29starting now.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Maigret.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35- Rowan Atkinson? Blackadder, Maigret.- Bean.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Bean. And Fowler.
0:22:37 > 0:22:42Well done. So, English, lamp, treeboa.
0:22:42 > 0:22:43What's that?
0:22:43 > 0:22:47Horned... That's going to be a wordy one, isn't it?
0:22:47 > 0:22:49- Hornedviper. Is it like...? - Snakes?
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Could be, yeah. Viper, Boa.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55- A Blackadder would have been a... Is River Jack one?- Eggeater?
0:22:56 > 0:22:57Yeah. So...
0:22:57 > 0:22:59Three strikes now.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Attrition and abrasion...
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Standard. Yeah.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Standard deviation, standard English, standard lamp.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Now hang on a minute. The other one is...
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Solution, attrition and abrasion are things that happen in a river,
0:23:10 > 0:23:13- geologically, aren't they? - And to rocks and stuff like that.
0:23:13 > 0:23:14- Yeah. - So it's...
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Standard wing? Standard hydraulic action?
0:23:17 > 0:23:21- One of the two.- Hydraulic action's going to be a river, isn't it?
0:23:21 > 0:23:22So those are things that happen in a river.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26- These are things that... These are beginning standard.- Yeah.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28There you go, you solved the wall.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31You said it was your nightmare thing, the wall.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33- But...- That happens sometimes. - This seems to be a better one.
0:23:33 > 0:23:34What about the connections?
0:23:34 > 0:23:38The first blue group, starting Maigret.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Characters that have been played by Rowan Atkinson.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43They are. Did you see the Maigret he did recently?
0:23:43 > 0:23:44- Yes. - What did you think?
0:23:44 > 0:23:47- I thought it was quite good. - I thought it was brilliant.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48I was absolutely gripped.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51He's not necessarily the shape you might imagine Maigret to be,
0:23:51 > 0:23:55the detective. But it was terrific, I want there to be more.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58What about the green group, starting riverjack?
0:23:59 > 0:24:02They're snakes. Or contain names of snakes.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04- Which is it? - Just that they're snakes.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08They are just snakes. They contain the names of snakes completely.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10And nothing else at all.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12They don't contain anything but the names of snakes.
0:24:12 > 0:24:13They're snakes. And what about this one?
0:24:13 > 0:24:15English, deviation, lamp, wing.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17You can put "standard" before all of them.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19You can put "standard" before all of them.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22English, of course, a red herring for the Rowan Atkinson group.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24- You didn't really...- Johnny English!- ..notice that going by.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26- Didn't hold you up for a moment. - Didn't spot it, yeah.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28What about this last one?
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Solution, attrition, abrasion, hydraulic action.
0:24:30 > 0:24:35These are processes that can happen in water, running water, in a river.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39- To rocks, for example. - That's right, it's river erosion.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42So, you found all four groups and all four connections.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44I'll give you a bonus of two for getting it all right,
0:24:44 > 0:24:46and that is the maximum of ten points.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48- Are you surprised? - Amazed!
0:24:50 > 0:24:51Well, congratulations.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Let's have a look at the scores.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56The Fire-Eaters have 16 points.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59The Verbivores have 23.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03On now to the missing vowels round. We've taken the vowels out of
0:25:03 > 0:25:05well-known names, phrases and sayings,
0:25:05 > 0:25:08we've respaced the consonants, and I want the teams to tell me,
0:25:08 > 0:25:10what are those disguised clues?
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Now, in your last match you had a reprieve, teams.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16People weren't going home in their first game of round three.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19Tonight, I'm afraid, one lot of you will be going home.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22I hope it's neither of you, but I know that it will be,
0:25:22 > 0:25:25otherwise we would be here for the rest of our lives.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27So, buzz with care this round.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29Fingers on the buzzers.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32I can tell you that the first group are all
0:25:32 > 0:25:34battles of the English Civil War.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17- Fire-Eaters? - The Emperor Jones.- Yes, it is.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25- Fire-Eaters? - Annie Christie.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28I'm afraid that's not it. Verbivores, do you know?
0:26:28 > 0:26:31- Anne Christie? - No, the play is Anna Christie.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32Next clue.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42- Verbivores. - Mourning Becomes Electra.
0:26:42 > 0:26:46Well done. Next category - all life peers.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58- Fire-Eaters. - CP Snow.- Correct.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03- Fire-Eaters. - Oona King.- Correct.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09And that's it.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11We will not see the last peer because the bell has gone for the
0:27:11 > 0:27:15end of the quiz. And I can tell you that the winners,
0:27:15 > 0:27:19and going through to the next round, with 26 points, are the Verbivores.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23Finishing a close second with an excellent 22 points,
0:27:23 > 0:27:24it's the Fire-Eaters.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Well done. I'm sorry that we have to lose you.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Thanks very much for playing. You've done some very good quizzing.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33Verbivores, at last you had a triumphant Connecting Wall.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35You're through to the next round.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Very well done.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39Before we go, many people say to me,
0:27:39 > 0:27:42please don't ever dumb down this show.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46Promise it will remain a bastion of esoteric intellectualism.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49And I say, is the Pope a Catholic?
0:27:49 > 0:27:50And they say, interesting question -
0:27:50 > 0:27:55a recent paper claimed that of the 266 popes in Western history,
0:27:55 > 0:27:5737 were anti-popes.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00Take, for example, the 1378 Western schism,
0:28:00 > 0:28:02where no fewer than three popes claimed to be
0:28:02 > 0:28:05the true representative of the Catholic faith,
0:28:05 > 0:28:07following the election of Pope Urban VI.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10And I smile, partly because of their pedantry,
0:28:10 > 0:28:13and partly because of the words "Pope Urban".
0:28:13 > 0:28:15I bet he was one cool pontiff.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17Good night.
