0:00:21 > 0:00:24Hello. Sorry if I'm looking a bit the worse for wear,

0:00:24 > 0:00:26I mixed my drinks at the preshow party.

0:00:26 > 0:00:30Turns out that cream sherry does not sit well with a pint of my own

0:00:30 > 0:00:33home-made bathtub turnip moonshine.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35So, no more sherry for me.

0:00:35 > 0:00:36Oof!

0:00:36 > 0:00:40On my right, Jeremy Partington.

0:00:40 > 0:00:41A geography graduate who,

0:00:41 > 0:00:44while attending the 60th anniversary of the D-Day landing,

0:00:44 > 0:00:47found himself inexplicably involved in the medal ceremony.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50Chris James, a software developer

0:00:50 > 0:00:52whose greatest wish is to invent a time machine,

0:00:52 > 0:00:56travel back to the 1970s and watch a set by the legendary

0:00:56 > 0:00:59comedian Norman Collier.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01And their captain, Jonathan Carter.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03A civil servant who came third

0:01:03 > 0:01:07in a national geography quiz and was given an award by Michael Fish.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09United by a willingness to be weird,

0:01:09 > 0:01:11they are the Surrealists.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14So you've done very well on your trip here. You've had several wins.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16Most recently against the Verbivores.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18How have you been decompressing between games?

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Well, we went back and read Is There A Text In This Class

0:01:21 > 0:01:23and it turns out the answer's no.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25Excellent. That was a tough group.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27That was one tough group.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30You are facing this evening, on my left,

0:01:30 > 0:01:33Taissa Csaky - a museums interpretation planner

0:01:33 > 0:01:38who once steered a tall ship safely into Cardiff Harbour.

0:01:38 > 0:01:39Niall Sheekey, a librarian,

0:01:39 > 0:01:43who shares a birthday with Joss Stone and is named after a renowned

0:01:43 > 0:01:46architect and Joycean scholar.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48And their captain, Michael Jelley.

0:01:48 > 0:01:52A maths graduate who has co-devised a mathematical theorem called

0:01:52 > 0:01:53the Bowler-Jelley theorem.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55United by a soft spot for sport,

0:01:55 > 0:01:57they are the Korfballers.

0:01:57 > 0:01:59You won your last game against the Fire-Eaters.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01There was a bit of fighting talk before that match.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03How competitive are you feeling tonight?

0:02:03 > 0:02:05Well, I've conferred with the team

0:02:05 > 0:02:08and we are still prepared to do literally anything to win.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12Excellent. But what if we made a note of that last time and we've got

0:02:12 > 0:02:14literally anything ready?

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Well, then we'll hopefully be prepared.

0:02:17 > 0:02:18Let's get on with the quiz.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Now, Surrealists, you won the toss,

0:02:20 > 0:02:22but you've decided to put the Korfballers in first.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24So, Michael, please choose a hieroglyph.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Two Reeds, please.

0:02:26 > 0:02:31Now, the Two Reeds requires you to climb into a bath of green mould

0:02:31 > 0:02:34and find the hidden mathematical theorems within it.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37- Again?- What links these pictures?

0:02:37 > 0:02:38Here's the first.

0:02:41 > 0:02:42- Shelley.- OK.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46Next, please.

0:02:47 > 0:02:48That's a ray.

0:02:49 > 0:02:50Sting?

0:02:51 > 0:02:52Fish.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Next, please.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59Oh, Lord.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01- Was that supposed to happen?- Yes.

0:03:03 > 0:03:04- That's odd.- Kate Moss.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Kate Moss. Catherine Thomas.

0:03:06 > 0:03:07Is that four Kates?

0:03:07 > 0:03:09- I think it's Kates.- Four Kates.

0:03:10 > 0:03:11Next, please.

0:03:13 > 0:03:14Steak.

0:03:15 > 0:03:16Three seconds.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19They're all anagrams of each other.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21They're all anagrams of each other.

0:03:21 > 0:03:22What are we looking at?

0:03:22 > 0:03:24We are looking at Keats, it turns out,

0:03:24 > 0:03:26rather than Shelley. A skate.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28- That's right.- Kates. And some steak.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30That's absolutely right -

0:03:30 > 0:03:31Keats, Kates, Skate, Steak.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33They are all anagrams of each other.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Well spotted. Back to you, Surrealists, for a choice.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38- Eye of Horus, please. - The Eye of Horus.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40OK. What connects these clues?

0:03:40 > 0:03:41Here's the first.

0:03:44 > 0:03:45Next, please.

0:03:55 > 0:03:56Next, please.

0:03:58 > 0:03:59Defra...

0:03:59 > 0:04:04Rural affairs, environment and rural affairs.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08TV is there.

0:04:09 > 0:04:12- Defra...- Next, please.

0:04:12 > 0:04:13Nope.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Open?

0:04:17 > 0:04:18Three seconds.

0:04:20 > 0:04:21Anything?

0:04:22 > 0:04:24Nothing? OK.

0:04:24 > 0:04:25There is a possible bonus chance

0:04:25 > 0:04:27for the Korfballers.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Are they all words that have been extended?

0:04:31 > 0:04:32No, although you started in

0:04:32 > 0:04:35the right area - it is a word one.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37And it is to do with contracting them.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39They all start with three

0:04:39 > 0:04:40consecutive letters.

0:04:40 > 0:04:44T-U-V, H-I-J, D-E-F, N-O-P.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46What's good is that due to the

0:04:46 > 0:04:48blossoming of quizzes in the world,

0:04:48 > 0:04:50particularly Pointless, I think,

0:04:50 > 0:04:51Tuvalu is now so familiar.

0:04:51 > 0:04:52They don't think, that's a weird

0:04:52 > 0:04:54word, what's going on?

0:04:54 > 0:04:55When you are looking at the letters,

0:04:55 > 0:04:58you're thinking of the things you know about that place.

0:04:58 > 0:04:59So nobody spotted that one.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02I did like it, by the way, that during the Kates question you said,

0:05:02 > 0:05:03was that supposed to happen?

0:05:03 > 0:05:05After a while on Only Connect,

0:05:05 > 0:05:08on our sort of wonky sets and dodgy cameramen, people start going,

0:05:08 > 0:05:10is this deliberate? Is any of this meant to be happening?

0:05:10 > 0:05:13Is it a mistake? But no, it's all real.

0:05:13 > 0:05:15Back to you, Korfballers, for a choice.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17- What would you like?- I think we'll have the Lion, please.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Why not? What is the connection between these clues?

0:05:19 > 0:05:22Here's the first.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24In red.

0:05:24 > 0:05:25Pink-ish.

0:05:26 > 0:05:28Next, please.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- OK, so that's blue.- Are these...

0:05:33 > 0:05:34- A change?- Flamin' hot...

0:05:34 > 0:05:37- Would that be something to do with Burger King, or McCains, or...- Oh!

0:05:39 > 0:05:42Yeah, flamin' Burger King.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Next, please.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Oh, yeah, so that's a crisp flavour.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49Monster Munch flavours.

0:05:49 > 0:05:51Yes, it's not a secret, is it?

0:05:51 > 0:05:55We think they are flavours of Monster Munch

0:05:55 > 0:05:57in the colours of the packets.

0:05:59 > 0:06:00Well, I'll take that, but there is

0:06:00 > 0:06:01something I'd rather have heard

0:06:01 > 0:06:03than the colours of the packets.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05The colours of the monsters on the packets.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07The monsters, absolutely right. The creatures.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10You didn't need to see the big orange one at the end there,

0:06:10 > 0:06:12pickled onion. But, yes.

0:06:12 > 0:06:13What's this going...

0:06:13 > 0:06:14What's happening in brackets here?

0:06:14 > 0:06:17The monster is retired and moved on.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19The yellow monster's now in charge of pickled onion.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21That's right, the monsters were

0:06:21 > 0:06:23originally employees

0:06:23 > 0:06:24of Smiths Crisps,

0:06:24 > 0:06:26and they were later rehired by Walkers.

0:06:26 > 0:06:27And some of them changed a bit.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29The blue monster lost his hat,

0:06:29 > 0:06:31the yellow monster took over

0:06:31 > 0:06:32the pickled onion brief

0:06:32 > 0:06:33of the orange monster

0:06:33 > 0:06:34when they changed jobs.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36That's what's going on there.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39But well remembered, we love those guys.

0:06:39 > 0:06:40Surrealists, what would you like?

0:06:40 > 0:06:42- Twisted Flax, please.- Twisted Flax, OK.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44What is the connection between these clues?

0:06:44 > 0:06:45Here's the first.

0:06:48 > 0:06:49Next, please.

0:06:55 > 0:06:56Anything?

0:06:59 > 0:07:03What's dry bob? Yeah, but what's dry bob?

0:07:03 > 0:07:06I think we'd better have one more.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Next, please.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Just do it.

0:07:11 > 0:07:12Yeah?

0:07:13 > 0:07:16- They all went to Eton. - They are old Etonians.

0:07:16 > 0:07:17Very well done.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19You didn't need to see the last one,

0:07:19 > 0:07:20Commander James Bond,

0:07:20 > 0:07:22who was removed during the first

0:07:22 > 0:07:24year for various nefarious things.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27That's absolutely right. When did you recognise it?

0:07:27 > 0:07:31I think Chris had it after Captain Hook.

0:07:31 > 0:07:32I think you did. Are you familiar

0:07:32 > 0:07:33with the term dry bob?

0:07:33 > 0:07:35- No, not at all.- Dry bob means

0:07:35 > 0:07:36that you don't row.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38That's what that means at Eton.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40At most schools, you don't row!

0:07:40 > 0:07:42But at Eton, if you don't row,

0:07:42 > 0:07:43you get a special name, dry bob.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45And Captain James Hook,

0:07:45 > 0:07:47ironically, was one of those.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49The others, all old Etonians. Well done.

0:07:49 > 0:07:53- Korfballers, what would you like? - The Horned Viper, please.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56The Horned Viper. OK. Ah, it's the music question.

0:07:56 > 0:07:57What connects these clues?

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Here's the first.

0:07:59 > 0:08:04# As time goes by... #

0:08:09 > 0:08:10Next, please.

0:08:10 > 0:08:11# ..Under the covers,

0:08:11 > 0:08:16# And I guess that's why they call it the blues... #

0:08:16 > 0:08:17Elton John.

0:08:17 > 0:08:18Next, please.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20# Let me rock you, Chaka Khan

0:08:20 > 0:08:22# Let me rock you, that's all I wanna do

0:08:22 > 0:08:24- # Chaka Khan, let me rock you... # - I Feel For You.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27# Let me rock you, cos I feel for you... #

0:08:27 > 0:08:29Blues?

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Next, please.

0:08:31 > 0:08:35# La da dee da da da da, da da... #

0:08:35 > 0:08:37- It must be names of band members. - Three seconds.

0:08:38 > 0:08:43- Yes, I think so.- Is it bracketed number ones

0:08:43 > 0:08:47and they've got two sets of brackets?

0:08:47 > 0:08:48It's a good guess, but that does not

0:08:48 > 0:08:50apply to all the clues, I'm afraid.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52So there is a bonus opportunity for the Surrealists.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55They all feature harmonica parts.

0:08:55 > 0:08:56I need to hear something

0:08:56 > 0:08:58more than that for a bonus point.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00Stevie Wonder playing the harmonica.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Very well done, they all feature

0:09:02 > 0:09:05Stevie Wonder guesting on the harmonica.

0:09:05 > 0:09:06What are the songs?

0:09:06 > 0:09:09The last one was Annie Lennox,

0:09:09 > 0:09:11There's an Orchestra of Angels. Playing With My Heart...

0:09:11 > 0:09:13There Must Be An Angel.

0:09:13 > 0:09:14There Must Be An Angel,

0:09:14 > 0:09:16(Playing With My Heart).

0:09:16 > 0:09:19The Elton John one was, Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21I Feel For You. Chaka Khan,

0:09:21 > 0:09:23the last one. Rufus and Chaka Khan.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25I Feel For You,

0:09:25 > 0:09:26just Chaka Khan on her own.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28First one, As Time Goes By, covered

0:09:28 > 0:09:30by Carly Simon with Stevie Wonder

0:09:30 > 0:09:31on the harmonica.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34So, well done, you get the bonus and you get your own question.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38Water. What is the connection between these Water clues.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40Here's the first.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Anything?

0:09:45 > 0:09:47Next, please.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Anything? Next, please.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05Poly. With poly in front.

0:10:07 > 0:10:08Polymath.

0:10:11 > 0:10:16They can all be preceded by poly, P-O-L-Y,

0:10:16 > 0:10:19to give you the answer underneath.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22- The definition.- Yeah. - Very well done.

0:10:22 > 0:10:23You didn't need to see the last one,

0:10:23 > 0:10:26which hinted at Polynesia, the subregion of Oceania.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28Very well done. Well spotted.

0:10:28 > 0:10:29Polyp - an abnormal growth.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31You get them in your nose

0:10:31 > 0:10:32if you have breathing disorders.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34I think I share with many Only Connecters.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36Terrible history with polyps.

0:10:36 > 0:10:37Oh, I'm a slave to my polyps.

0:10:37 > 0:10:38Polymath - a Renaissance man,

0:10:38 > 0:10:40which we hope we have many of here.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42Man in the more general sense, of course.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45Polymnia -

0:10:45 > 0:10:47what can you tell me about that?

0:10:47 > 0:10:50It's presumably a love of a muse.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52- What sort of muse?- An artist's muse, I presume.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54One of the original nine Muses

0:10:54 > 0:10:55in Greek mythology.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57That's absolutely right. Well done.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00That means, at the end of round one, the Korfballers have 3 points,

0:11:00 > 0:11:02and the Surrealists have 5.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07On to Round Two, the sequences round.

0:11:07 > 0:11:08You sneeze a lot, you get polyps -

0:11:08 > 0:11:10that's the sort of sequence I'm talking about.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13Korfballers, you'll be going first again. Which question

0:11:13 > 0:11:15- would you like?- The Eye of Horus, please.- The Eye of Horus.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18OK, what would you expect to come fourth in this sequence?

0:11:18 > 0:11:19Here's the first.

0:11:23 > 0:11:28Next, please.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33THEY MUTTER

0:11:45 > 0:11:48Is it F: Australia?

0:11:48 > 0:11:50It is not F: Australia.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52Good gamble, but not the right answer,

0:11:52 > 0:11:53so I'm going to show the third

0:11:53 > 0:11:55in the sequence to the Surrealists

0:11:55 > 0:11:57for a possible bonus point.

0:11:57 > 0:11:58Haven't got that long.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02I can't give you long.

0:12:02 > 0:12:03F: New Zealand.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06Not it. It's F: Belgium.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08What do you think the sequence is?

0:12:08 > 0:12:13Well, we did think it was

0:12:13 > 0:12:16the England World Cup run in 2005...

0:12:16 > 0:12:182003, sorry.

0:12:18 > 0:12:19And now we think it might be tennis.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22It is tennis. It is the 2015

0:12:22 > 0:12:24Davis Cup opponents of Britain.

0:12:24 > 0:12:27And in the final, they were up against Belgium.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28How did they get on against Belgium?

0:12:28 > 0:12:30- They won.- They won. The first time

0:12:30 > 0:12:32they'd won the Davis Cup since 1936.

0:12:32 > 0:12:33Excellent. That's why

0:12:33 > 0:12:35you should have remembered it.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37So, no points there, but Surrealists,

0:12:37 > 0:12:38you may choose a question.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40Two Reeds, please.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Two Reeds. What will come fourth in this sequence?

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Here's the first.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52THEY MUTTER

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Next, please.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00I don't know why it's two of four.

0:13:01 > 0:13:03What's the sequence?

0:13:03 > 0:13:04Try the next one.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Next one, please.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11THEY CONFER

0:13:15 > 0:13:17It would be N-something.

0:13:19 > 0:13:20Three seconds.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23Four of four: U-u-n,

0:13:23 > 0:13:26large U and then small u-n.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Not the right answer, I'm afraid.

0:13:28 > 0:13:29So, Korfballers,

0:13:29 > 0:13:30you have the chance of a bonus.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32H? H?

0:13:32 > 0:13:35We think 4 of 4: U-u-h.

0:13:35 > 0:13:36That's not it, either. What do you

0:13:36 > 0:13:38think the sequence is, over there?

0:13:38 > 0:13:42Chemical elements for the ones, transuranic ones, but I don't know.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44That's right. They're elements that

0:13:44 > 0:13:46have been added to the periodic table.

0:13:46 > 0:13:47At time of recording,

0:13:47 > 0:13:49they simply have the names 113-ium,

0:13:49 > 0:13:52115-ium, and so on.

0:13:52 > 0:13:55And the last one is 4 of 4: U-u-o,

0:13:55 > 0:13:57because we're translating numbers

0:13:57 > 0:13:59into Latin, and 118-ium,

0:13:59 > 0:14:01ununoctium, Uuo.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03It reminds you of the Tom Lehrer song.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Do you know the Tom Lehrer song?

0:14:05 > 0:14:07Not well enough to sing it!

0:14:07 > 0:14:09"These are the only ones of which

0:14:09 > 0:14:10"the news has come to Harvard,

0:14:10 > 0:14:12"And there may be many others,

0:14:12 > 0:14:13"but they haven't been DISCARVARD."

0:14:13 > 0:14:15The Elements Song, and these are new

0:14:15 > 0:14:17elements not yet permanently named.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20Korfballers, what would you like next?

0:14:20 > 0:14:22I think we'll revert to type and have the Lion, please.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25The Lion, OK. What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:14:25 > 0:14:26Here's the first.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32THEY CONFER

0:14:32 > 0:14:33Next, please.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45- Is she...?- She's done other things as well.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50No, no, really?

0:14:50 > 0:14:53INDISTINCT

0:14:53 > 0:14:58- Who played the most recent one? - Oh, it's Halley Berry.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00- Ann Hathaway. - Is the right answer.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Well done. What are we looking at?

0:15:02 > 0:15:06We are looking at various stages of Catwoman.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08That's absolutely right. Well, not necessarily stages,

0:15:08 > 0:15:11these are all Catwomen.

0:15:11 > 0:15:13They are the four people to play

0:15:13 > 0:15:15Catwoman in live action cinema

0:15:15 > 0:15:17release films and the next would be Anne Hathaway.

0:15:17 > 0:15:18Well done.

0:15:18 > 0:15:19Which is the best Catwoman?

0:15:19 > 0:15:21- Anne Hathaway.- Really?

0:15:21 > 0:15:22Michelle Pfeiffer.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24Obviously, Michelle Pfeiffer!

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Possibly Lee Meriwether.

0:15:26 > 0:15:27She was a great Catwoman.

0:15:27 > 0:15:29You're too young.

0:15:29 > 0:15:30I'm also too young by the way,

0:15:30 > 0:15:31I've just seen old repeats,

0:15:31 > 0:15:33that's all that is!

0:15:33 > 0:15:34Surrealists, what would you like?

0:15:34 > 0:15:36- Horned Viper, please.- The Horned Viper.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:15:38 > 0:15:40Here's the first.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45THEY CONFER

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Next, please.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04With population... It's population.

0:16:04 > 0:16:09California is the most populous state.

0:16:09 > 0:16:10Yeah?

0:16:15 > 0:16:19First, Alaska, California.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Well done, that is the right answer,

0:16:21 > 0:16:22and why?

0:16:22 > 0:16:28So, the state on the top is going backwards in order of size,

0:16:28 > 0:16:30so it finishes with the largest

0:16:30 > 0:16:32and the state underneath is going upwards

0:16:32 > 0:16:37in size of population, so it finishes with the most populous.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39That's right. So they are sizes

0:16:39 > 0:16:41of American States going backwards

0:16:41 > 0:16:43and the top one is the size geographically

0:16:43 > 0:16:44and the lowest one by population.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Alaska for example, like my last

0:16:46 > 0:16:49birthday party, huge with no people.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51And California is full of people,

0:16:51 > 0:16:52but not as big.

0:16:52 > 0:16:53Very well calculated.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Well done to you.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Korfballers, what would you like next?

0:16:57 > 0:16:59- The Twisted Flax, please. - The Twisted Flax, OK.

0:16:59 > 0:17:00These are going to be picture clues.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02What would you expect to see in the fourth picture?

0:17:02 > 0:17:05Here is the first.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10THEY CONFER

0:17:13 > 0:17:14Next, please.

0:17:20 > 0:17:21Next, please.

0:17:27 > 0:17:28So is it just the decreasing...?

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Is it going to be the microscope?

0:17:37 > 0:17:41Is it a magnifying glass, possibly with the letter I in it?

0:17:41 > 0:17:42It is a magnifying glass

0:17:42 > 0:17:43with the letter I in it.

0:17:43 > 0:17:44Very well done.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46What are we looking at?

0:17:46 > 0:17:48Concentric parts of the QI logo.

0:17:48 > 0:17:50That is absolutely right.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52We are going into the QI roundel.

0:17:52 > 0:17:53Do you know what features in

0:17:53 > 0:17:56these images of the outer circles?

0:17:56 > 0:17:58I'm sure they are extremely clever people's writings.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02Well, it depends on your point of view.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04The first one is the Dead Sea Scrolls.

0:18:04 > 0:18:05That's in that circle.

0:18:05 > 0:18:09Then Newtonian scientific formulae, and then clue three, that white one,

0:18:09 > 0:18:12that's an astrological clock going in

0:18:12 > 0:18:16towards the QI logo of the "i" in the middle. Well done.

0:18:16 > 0:18:17Surrealists, one question remains.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19It is Water again.

0:18:19 > 0:18:22What would you expect to see fourth in this sequence?

0:18:22 > 0:18:23Here is the first.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Next, please.

0:18:37 > 0:18:39Is it something with one...

0:18:47 > 0:18:50- Try another one.- Sure?

0:18:55 > 0:18:56Yeah, OK.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58Yeah?

0:18:59 > 0:19:01- D'Artagnan.- And why would that be?

0:19:01 > 0:19:03Because he has one sword.

0:19:03 > 0:19:04I will accept that answer,

0:19:04 > 0:19:05even though I expect D'Artagnan

0:19:05 > 0:19:07probably has millions of swords.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09If you mean the one primary sword -

0:19:09 > 0:19:12one at a time, often the rule, with swords. That is the right answer.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14Very well done.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Can you describe the recuperation card in the tarot?

0:19:16 > 0:19:18- Must have four...- Don't know!

0:19:20 > 0:19:24It's a knight with one sword, but three swords hanging above.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27The flag of Essex, three Saxon swords.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29And what about battlefield on an Ordnance Survey map?

0:19:29 > 0:19:31Two crossed swords. Exactly.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33And something with one sword, like

0:19:33 > 0:19:35the Statue of Justice or D'Artagnan,

0:19:35 > 0:19:36or me when I'm in

0:19:36 > 0:19:39an old-fashioned mood. One sword.

0:19:39 > 0:19:40Something with one sword is correct.

0:19:40 > 0:19:44That means at the end of Round Two the Korfballers have eight points.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46The Surrealists have 11.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51Time now for the Connecting Wall and, Surrealists,

0:19:51 > 0:19:55you will be going first, this time, so please choose Lion or Water.

0:19:55 > 0:19:56- Lion, please.- OK,

0:19:56 > 0:20:00you have two and a half minutes to solve the Lion wall, starting now.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09I think the theme is Calypso, so...

0:20:09 > 0:20:11BUZZ

0:20:11 > 0:20:13- So was Nestor.- Which one?- Nestor.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15BUZZ

0:20:15 > 0:20:16BUZZ

0:20:16 > 0:20:20Fuchsia pink, coral pink, shocking pink...

0:20:20 > 0:20:22oyster? No,

0:20:22 > 0:20:24cos I think that is a card.

0:20:24 > 0:20:25Octopus pink?

0:20:25 > 0:20:26BUZZ

0:20:28 > 0:20:31- Oyster card... Which is a card? Get Me There"?- Yeah.

0:20:31 > 0:20:32And your Oyster card.

0:20:32 > 0:20:33No.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35Navigo?

0:20:35 > 0:20:37- Try octopus.- Oh, yes, that rings a bell.

0:20:37 > 0:20:40- Calypso rings a bell, actually. - Try that.

0:20:40 > 0:20:41Three lives now.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43Travelcards and pinks.

0:20:43 > 0:20:48- We've got...- So we've got Polyphemus and Circe...

0:20:48 > 0:20:50All from the Odyssey.

0:20:50 > 0:20:54- So is Nestor.- So what's Santeria and Ackee?

0:20:54 > 0:20:57- These are Jamaican...- That's Caribbean.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Is it Jamaican or Cuban?

0:20:59 > 0:21:02Caribbean.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04That's Caribbean, that's Caribbean.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09- That's Caribbean.- That's a kind of fish.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11Go on, then.

0:21:11 > 0:21:16We think that's the Odyssey.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18What's...?

0:21:18 > 0:21:21What are we going to say for this? From the Caribbean.

0:21:21 > 0:21:23- What is Ackee?- It's a fish.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26You solved the wall, very well done.

0:21:26 > 0:21:27That is an immediate four points.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29What about the connections?

0:21:29 > 0:21:31Tell me about the blue group.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Coral, oyster, shocking, fuchsia.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36They are all types of pink.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38They are all types of pink.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41And what about the green one, starting Navigo?

0:21:41 > 0:21:45- They are forms of travel card. - Electronic travelcards.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48That's right. Smart travelcards from around the world.

0:21:48 > 0:21:52And what about the next group, starting Nausicaa?

0:21:52 > 0:21:55They are in Homer's Odyssey.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57They are characters in the Odyssey.

0:21:57 > 0:22:01Absolutely right. And the last turquoise group, starting Santeria?

0:22:01 > 0:22:03They come from the Caribbean.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05They are all from the Caribbean.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07Four points for the groups you found,

0:22:07 > 0:22:10four more for the connections and the bonus for getting it all right.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12That is the maximum of ten, very well done.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15Let's bring in the Korfballers and give them the other Connecting Wall

0:22:15 > 0:22:18and see what they can do about finding the hidden groups.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21It will be the Water wall for you, the Lion has been taken.

0:22:21 > 0:22:26You have got two and a half minutes to solve it, starting now.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33Frink is a sculptor.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36He is also a fictional professor.

0:22:36 > 0:22:37Oh, OK.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39- And Van Helsing?- Van Helsing.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41Shall we start with those?

0:22:41 > 0:22:43Yeah.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45INDISTINCT

0:22:45 > 0:22:47BUZZ

0:22:48 > 0:22:50- BUZZ - Shall we try the Romans?

0:22:50 > 0:22:53Or Consul... There's lots of them. Try the actual...

0:22:56 > 0:22:58- BUZZ - Nope.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07What else is a centurion, then?

0:23:09 > 0:23:10Shuttles, challengers?

0:23:13 > 0:23:17- Paper chase, paper tiger, paper trail.- Yeah, lovely.- Paperclips.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19So there are five of those.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23BUZZ

0:23:23 > 0:23:26BUZZ

0:23:26 > 0:23:27BUZZ

0:23:30 > 0:23:31Three lives now.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35So, fictional professors. We've done...

0:23:35 > 0:23:38INDISTINCT

0:23:38 > 0:23:40- ..we didn't look for? - Yes, we did.- OK.

0:23:40 > 0:23:41Which...?

0:23:44 > 0:23:46We need to get those three.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49INDISTINCT

0:23:49 > 0:23:51- Let's get your...- So which would you...?

0:23:52 > 0:23:54Let's try these professors again.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56I think Centurion, Tiger and Challenger are...

0:23:56 > 0:23:58BUZZ

0:23:58 > 0:24:01So, we've missed out those two each.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04So let's try missing out Frink.

0:24:04 > 0:24:05BUZZ

0:24:05 > 0:24:07So we're just going to go for Van Helsing?

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Is there anything you can think of?

0:24:09 > 0:24:1030 seconds.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13What's the film called with Van Helsing?

0:24:13 > 0:24:15- Dracula.- Interview With A Vampire.

0:24:17 > 0:24:20Let's just put them in and be ready to press.

0:24:29 > 0:24:30Ten seconds.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33No, that's your third life.

0:24:33 > 0:24:34The wall has frozen.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37But you found two groups, so that's two points immediately.

0:24:37 > 0:24:38What about the connections?

0:24:38 > 0:24:42Tell me about the first blue group, starting Praetor.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44They are officers in the Roman army.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48I'm sorry, they are Roman officials, but not in the military.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51Aedile was actually a magistrate,

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Consul was also a magistrate. I think a Legate is in the army,

0:24:53 > 0:24:56but they are not all military, just Roman officials.

0:24:56 > 0:25:00What about the green group? Clip, chase, money, trail.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02They can all be preceded by "paper".

0:25:02 > 0:25:03That's right.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06Paperclip, paper chase, paper money and paper trail

0:25:06 > 0:25:08And you can still get points for the

0:25:08 > 0:25:10connections in the groups you didn't find.

0:25:10 > 0:25:12So, let's resolve the wall. There we go.

0:25:12 > 0:25:16Centurion, Tiger, Abrams, Merkava

0:25:16 > 0:25:17Er...

0:25:17 > 0:25:21Strange versions of world leaders.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24Strange versions of world leaders?

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Do you know, in a weird way, it almost is world leaders.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29They are military tanks.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32So if you are going to say that the weaponry rules us all,

0:25:32 > 0:25:36which I'm not going to say, I can't give you the points,

0:25:36 > 0:25:39they are various types of military tanks.

0:25:39 > 0:25:43And the turquoise group? Challenger, Langdon, Van Helsing, Frink.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45I think they are fictional professors.

0:25:45 > 0:25:46They are all fictional professors.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49So, you found two groups and two connections,

0:25:49 > 0:25:50that is a total of four.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53Let's have a look at the overall scores.

0:25:59 > 0:26:03But of course, this is our new format where somebody goes

0:26:03 > 0:26:06to the semifinal and nobody goes home, so none of this matters.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08With that in mind, let's play Missing Vowels.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11Fingers on buzzers, teams.

0:26:11 > 0:26:15I can tell you that the first group are all varieties of sunflower.

0:26:21 > 0:26:22Correct.

0:26:26 > 0:26:27Lovely.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33Yes, it is.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38What a lovely group. The next category,

0:26:38 > 0:26:41films with a word changed for its opposite.

0:26:45 > 0:26:46Correct.

0:26:51 > 0:26:52Correct.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58Not it, I'm afraid.

0:27:00 > 0:27:04To be an opposite it must be Mary Popp-OUTS.

0:27:04 > 0:27:05Next clue.

0:27:10 > 0:27:11Yes, it is.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13Next category.
