Hello. Sorry if I'm looking a bit the worse for wear,

0:00:210:00:24

I mixed my drinks at the preshow party.

0:00:240:00:26

Turns out that cream sherry does not sit well with a pint of my own

0:00:260:00:30

home-made bathtub turnip moonshine.

0:00:300:00:33

So, no more sherry for me.

0:00:330:00:35

Oof!

0:00:350:00:36

On my right, Jeremy Partington.

0:00:360:00:40

A geography graduate who,

0:00:400:00:41

while attending the 60th anniversary of the D-Day landing,

0:00:410:00:44

found himself inexplicably involved in the medal ceremony.

0:00:440:00:47

Chris James, a software developer

0:00:480:00:50

whose greatest wish is to invent a time machine,

0:00:500:00:52

travel back to the 1970s and watch a set by the legendary

0:00:520:00:56

comedian Norman Collier.

0:00:560:00:59

And their captain, Jonathan Carter.

0:00:590:01:01

A civil servant who came third

0:01:010:01:03

in a national geography quiz and was given an award by Michael Fish.

0:01:030:01:07

United by a willingness to be weird,

0:01:070:01:09

they are the Surrealists.

0:01:090:01:11

So you've done very well on your trip here. You've had several wins.

0:01:110:01:14

Most recently against the Verbivores.

0:01:140:01:16

How have you been decompressing between games?

0:01:160:01:18

Well, we went back and read Is There A Text In This Class

0:01:180:01:21

and it turns out the answer's no.

0:01:210:01:23

Excellent. That was a tough group.

0:01:230:01:25

That was one tough group.

0:01:250:01:27

You are facing this evening, on my left,

0:01:270:01:30

Taissa Csaky - a museums interpretation planner

0:01:300:01:33

who once steered a tall ship safely into Cardiff Harbour.

0:01:330:01:38

Niall Sheekey, a librarian,

0:01:380:01:39

who shares a birthday with Joss Stone and is named after a renowned

0:01:390:01:43

architect and Joycean scholar.

0:01:430:01:46

And their captain, Michael Jelley.

0:01:460:01:48

A maths graduate who has co-devised a mathematical theorem called

0:01:480:01:52

the Bowler-Jelley theorem.

0:01:520:01:53

United by a soft spot for sport,

0:01:530:01:55

they are the Korfballers.

0:01:550:01:57

You won your last game against the Fire-Eaters.

0:01:570:01:59

There was a bit of fighting talk before that match.

0:01:590:02:01

How competitive are you feeling tonight?

0:02:010:02:03

Well, I've conferred with the team

0:02:030:02:05

and we are still prepared to do literally anything to win.

0:02:050:02:08

Excellent. But what if we made a note of that last time and we've got

0:02:090:02:12

literally anything ready?

0:02:120:02:14

Well, then we'll hopefully be prepared.

0:02:140:02:17

Let's get on with the quiz.

0:02:170:02:18

Now, Surrealists, you won the toss,

0:02:180:02:20

but you've decided to put the Korfballers in first.

0:02:200:02:22

So, Michael, please choose a hieroglyph.

0:02:220:02:24

Two Reeds, please.

0:02:240:02:26

Now, the Two Reeds requires you to climb into a bath of green mould

0:02:260:02:31

and find the hidden mathematical theorems within it.

0:02:310:02:34

-Again?

-What links these pictures?

0:02:340:02:37

Here's the first.

0:02:370:02:38

-Shelley.

-OK.

0:02:410:02:42

Next, please.

0:02:440:02:46

That's a ray.

0:02:470:02:48

Sting?

0:02:490:02:50

Fish.

0:02:510:02:52

Next, please.

0:02:540:02:56

Oh, Lord.

0:02:570:02:59

-Was that supposed to happen?

-Yes.

0:02:590:03:01

-That's odd.

-Kate Moss.

0:03:030:03:04

Kate Moss. Catherine Thomas.

0:03:040:03:06

Is that four Kates?

0:03:060:03:07

-I think it's Kates.

-Four Kates.

0:03:070:03:09

Next, please.

0:03:100:03:11

Steak.

0:03:130:03:14

Three seconds.

0:03:150:03:16

They're all anagrams of each other.

0:03:160:03:19

They're all anagrams of each other.

0:03:190:03:21

What are we looking at?

0:03:210:03:22

We are looking at Keats, it turns out,

0:03:220:03:24

rather than Shelley. A skate.

0:03:240:03:26

-That's right.

-Kates. And some steak.

0:03:260:03:28

That's absolutely right -

0:03:280:03:30

Keats, Kates, Skate, Steak.

0:03:300:03:31

They are all anagrams of each other.

0:03:310:03:33

Well spotted. Back to you, Surrealists, for a choice.

0:03:330:03:35

-Eye of Horus, please.

-The Eye of Horus.

0:03:350:03:38

OK. What connects these clues?

0:03:380:03:40

Here's the first.

0:03:400:03:41

Next, please.

0:03:440:03:45

Next, please.

0:03:550:03:56

Defra...

0:03:580:03:59

Rural affairs, environment and rural affairs.

0:03:590:04:04

TV is there.

0:04:060:04:08

-Defra...

-Next, please.

0:04:090:04:12

Nope.

0:04:120:04:13

Open?

0:04:140:04:16

Three seconds.

0:04:170:04:18

Anything?

0:04:200:04:21

Nothing? OK.

0:04:220:04:24

There is a possible bonus chance

0:04:240:04:25

for the Korfballers.

0:04:250:04:27

Are they all words that have been extended?

0:04:270:04:29

No, although you started in

0:04:310:04:32

the right area - it is a word one.

0:04:320:04:35

And it is to do with contracting them.

0:04:350:04:37

They all start with three

0:04:370:04:39

consecutive letters.

0:04:390:04:40

T-U-V, H-I-J, D-E-F, N-O-P.

0:04:400:04:44

What's good is that due to the

0:04:440:04:46

blossoming of quizzes in the world,

0:04:460:04:48

particularly Pointless, I think,

0:04:480:04:50

Tuvalu is now so familiar.

0:04:500:04:51

They don't think, that's a weird

0:04:510:04:52

word, what's going on?

0:04:520:04:54

When you are looking at the letters,

0:04:540:04:55

you're thinking of the things you know about that place.

0:04:550:04:58

So nobody spotted that one.

0:04:580:04:59

I did like it, by the way, that during the Kates question you said,

0:04:590:05:02

was that supposed to happen?

0:05:020:05:03

After a while on Only Connect,

0:05:030:05:05

on our sort of wonky sets and dodgy cameramen, people start going,

0:05:050:05:08

is this deliberate? Is any of this meant to be happening?

0:05:080:05:10

Is it a mistake? But no, it's all real.

0:05:100:05:13

Back to you, Korfballers, for a choice.

0:05:130:05:15

-What would you like?

-I think we'll have the Lion, please.

0:05:150:05:17

Why not? What is the connection between these clues?

0:05:170:05:19

Here's the first.

0:05:190:05:22

In red.

0:05:220:05:24

Pink-ish.

0:05:240:05:25

Next, please.

0:05:260:05:28

-OK, so that's blue.

-Are these...

0:05:290:05:32

-A change?

-Flamin' hot...

0:05:330:05:34

-Would that be something to do with Burger King, or McCains, or...

-Oh!

0:05:340:05:37

Yeah, flamin' Burger King.

0:05:390:05:42

Next, please.

0:05:420:05:44

Oh, yeah, so that's a crisp flavour.

0:05:450:05:47

Monster Munch flavours.

0:05:470:05:49

Yes, it's not a secret, is it?

0:05:490:05:51

We think they are flavours of Monster Munch

0:05:510:05:55

in the colours of the packets.

0:05:550:05:57

Well, I'll take that, but there is

0:05:590:06:00

something I'd rather have heard

0:06:000:06:01

than the colours of the packets.

0:06:010:06:03

The colours of the monsters on the packets.

0:06:030:06:05

The monsters, absolutely right. The creatures.

0:06:050:06:07

You didn't need to see the big orange one at the end there,

0:06:070:06:10

pickled onion. But, yes.

0:06:100:06:12

What's this going...

0:06:120:06:13

What's happening in brackets here?

0:06:130:06:14

The monster is retired and moved on.

0:06:140:06:17

The yellow monster's now in charge of pickled onion.

0:06:170:06:19

That's right, the monsters were

0:06:190:06:21

originally employees

0:06:210:06:23

of Smiths Crisps,

0:06:230:06:24

and they were later rehired by Walkers.

0:06:240:06:26

And some of them changed a bit.

0:06:260:06:27

The blue monster lost his hat,

0:06:270:06:29

the yellow monster took over

0:06:290:06:31

the pickled onion brief

0:06:310:06:32

of the orange monster

0:06:320:06:33

when they changed jobs.

0:06:330:06:34

That's what's going on there.

0:06:340:06:36

But well remembered, we love those guys.

0:06:360:06:39

Surrealists, what would you like?

0:06:390:06:40

-Twisted Flax, please.

-Twisted Flax, OK.

0:06:400:06:42

What is the connection between these clues?

0:06:420:06:44

Here's the first.

0:06:440:06:45

Next, please.

0:06:480:06:49

Anything?

0:06:550:06:56

What's dry bob? Yeah, but what's dry bob?

0:06:590:07:03

I think we'd better have one more.

0:07:030:07:06

Next, please.

0:07:060:07:08

Just do it.

0:07:090:07:11

Yeah?

0:07:110:07:12

-They all went to Eton.

-They are old Etonians.

0:07:130:07:16

Very well done.

0:07:160:07:17

You didn't need to see the last one,

0:07:170:07:19

Commander James Bond,

0:07:190:07:20

who was removed during the first

0:07:200:07:22

year for various nefarious things.

0:07:220:07:24

That's absolutely right. When did you recognise it?

0:07:240:07:27

I think Chris had it after Captain Hook.

0:07:270:07:31

I think you did. Are you familiar

0:07:310:07:32

with the term dry bob?

0:07:320:07:33

-No, not at all.

-Dry bob means

0:07:330:07:35

that you don't row.

0:07:350:07:36

That's what that means at Eton.

0:07:360:07:38

At most schools, you don't row!

0:07:380:07:40

But at Eton, if you don't row,

0:07:400:07:42

you get a special name, dry bob.

0:07:420:07:43

And Captain James Hook,

0:07:430:07:45

ironically, was one of those.

0:07:450:07:47

The others, all old Etonians. Well done.

0:07:470:07:49

-Korfballers, what would you like?

-The Horned Viper, please.

0:07:490:07:53

The Horned Viper. OK. Ah, it's the music question.

0:07:530:07:56

What connects these clues?

0:07:560:07:57

Here's the first.

0:07:570:07:59

# As time goes by... #

0:07:590:08:04

Next, please.

0:08:090:08:10

# ..Under the covers,

0:08:100:08:11

# And I guess that's why they call it the blues... #

0:08:110:08:16

Elton John.

0:08:160:08:17

Next, please.

0:08:170:08:18

# Let me rock you, Chaka Khan

0:08:180:08:20

# Let me rock you, that's all I wanna do

0:08:200:08:22

-# Chaka Khan, let me rock you... #

-I Feel For You.

0:08:220:08:24

# Let me rock you, cos I feel for you... #

0:08:240:08:27

Blues?

0:08:270:08:29

Next, please.

0:08:290:08:31

# La da dee da da da da, da da... #

0:08:310:08:35

-It must be names of band members.

-Three seconds.

0:08:350:08:37

-Yes, I think so.

-Is it bracketed number ones

0:08:380:08:43

and they've got two sets of brackets?

0:08:430:08:47

It's a good guess, but that does not

0:08:470:08:48

apply to all the clues, I'm afraid.

0:08:480:08:50

So there is a bonus opportunity for the Surrealists.

0:08:500:08:52

They all feature harmonica parts.

0:08:520:08:55

I need to hear something

0:08:550:08:56

more than that for a bonus point.

0:08:560:08:58

Stevie Wonder playing the harmonica.

0:08:580:09:00

Very well done, they all feature

0:09:000:09:02

Stevie Wonder guesting on the harmonica.

0:09:020:09:05

What are the songs?

0:09:050:09:06

The last one was Annie Lennox,

0:09:060:09:09

There's an Orchestra of Angels. Playing With My Heart...

0:09:090:09:11

There Must Be An Angel.

0:09:110:09:13

There Must Be An Angel,

0:09:130:09:14

(Playing With My Heart).

0:09:140:09:16

The Elton John one was, Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues.

0:09:160:09:19

I Feel For You. Chaka Khan,

0:09:190:09:21

the last one. Rufus and Chaka Khan.

0:09:210:09:23

I Feel For You,

0:09:230:09:25

just Chaka Khan on her own.

0:09:250:09:26

First one, As Time Goes By, covered

0:09:260:09:28

by Carly Simon with Stevie Wonder

0:09:280:09:30

on the harmonica.

0:09:300:09:31

So, well done, you get the bonus and you get your own question.

0:09:310:09:34

Water. What is the connection between these Water clues.

0:09:340:09:38

Here's the first.

0:09:380:09:40

Anything?

0:09:410:09:43

Next, please.

0:09:450:09:47

Anything? Next, please.

0:09:540:09:57

Poly. With poly in front.

0:10:030:10:05

Polymath.

0:10:070:10:08

They can all be preceded by poly, P-O-L-Y,

0:10:110:10:16

to give you the answer underneath.

0:10:160:10:19

-The definition.

-Yeah.

-Very well done.

0:10:190:10:22

You didn't need to see the last one,

0:10:220:10:23

which hinted at Polynesia, the subregion of Oceania.

0:10:230:10:26

Very well done. Well spotted.

0:10:260:10:28

Polyp - an abnormal growth.

0:10:280:10:29

You get them in your nose

0:10:290:10:31

if you have breathing disorders.

0:10:310:10:32

I think I share with many Only Connecters.

0:10:320:10:34

Terrible history with polyps.

0:10:340:10:36

Oh, I'm a slave to my polyps.

0:10:360:10:37

Polymath - a Renaissance man,

0:10:370:10:38

which we hope we have many of here.

0:10:380:10:40

Man in the more general sense, of course.

0:10:400:10:42

Polymnia -

0:10:430:10:45

what can you tell me about that?

0:10:450:10:47

It's presumably a love of a muse.

0:10:470:10:50

-What sort of muse?

-An artist's muse, I presume.

0:10:500:10:52

One of the original nine Muses

0:10:520:10:54

in Greek mythology.

0:10:540:10:55

That's absolutely right. Well done.

0:10:550:10:57

That means, at the end of round one, the Korfballers have 3 points,

0:10:570:11:00

and the Surrealists have 5.

0:11:000:11:02

On to Round Two, the sequences round.

0:11:050:11:07

You sneeze a lot, you get polyps -

0:11:070:11:08

that's the sort of sequence I'm talking about.

0:11:080:11:10

Korfballers, you'll be going first again. Which question

0:11:100:11:13

-would you like?

-The Eye of Horus, please.

-The Eye of Horus.

0:11:130:11:15

OK, what would you expect to come fourth in this sequence?

0:11:150:11:18

Here's the first.

0:11:180:11:19

Next, please.

0:11:230:11:28

THEY MUTTER

0:11:310:11:33

Is it F: Australia?

0:11:450:11:48

It is not F: Australia.

0:11:480:11:50

Good gamble, but not the right answer,

0:11:500:11:52

so I'm going to show the third

0:11:520:11:53

in the sequence to the Surrealists

0:11:530:11:55

for a possible bonus point.

0:11:550:11:57

Haven't got that long.

0:11:570:11:58

I can't give you long.

0:12:000:12:02

F: New Zealand.

0:12:020:12:03

Not it. It's F: Belgium.

0:12:030:12:06

What do you think the sequence is?

0:12:060:12:08

Well, we did think it was

0:12:080:12:13

the England World Cup run in 2005...

0:12:130:12:16

2003, sorry.

0:12:160:12:18

And now we think it might be tennis.

0:12:180:12:19

It is tennis. It is the 2015

0:12:190:12:22

Davis Cup opponents of Britain.

0:12:220:12:24

And in the final, they were up against Belgium.

0:12:240:12:27

How did they get on against Belgium?

0:12:270:12:28

-They won.

-They won. The first time

0:12:280:12:30

they'd won the Davis Cup since 1936.

0:12:300:12:32

Excellent. That's why

0:12:320:12:33

you should have remembered it.

0:12:330:12:35

So, no points there, but Surrealists,

0:12:350:12:37

you may choose a question.

0:12:370:12:38

Two Reeds, please.

0:12:380:12:40

Two Reeds. What will come fourth in this sequence?

0:12:400:12:42

Here's the first.

0:12:420:12:44

THEY MUTTER

0:12:480:12:52

Next, please.

0:12:520:12:54

I don't know why it's two of four.

0:12:580:13:00

What's the sequence?

0:13:010:13:03

Try the next one.

0:13:030:13:04

Next one, please.

0:13:040:13:06

THEY CONFER

0:13:090:13:11

It would be N-something.

0:13:150:13:17

Three seconds.

0:13:190:13:20

Four of four: U-u-n,

0:13:200:13:23

large U and then small u-n.

0:13:230:13:26

Not the right answer, I'm afraid.

0:13:260:13:28

So, Korfballers,

0:13:280:13:29

you have the chance of a bonus.

0:13:290:13:30

H? H?

0:13:300:13:32

We think 4 of 4: U-u-h.

0:13:320:13:35

That's not it, either. What do you

0:13:350:13:36

think the sequence is, over there?

0:13:360:13:38

Chemical elements for the ones, transuranic ones, but I don't know.

0:13:380:13:42

That's right. They're elements that

0:13:420:13:44

have been added to the periodic table.

0:13:440:13:46

At time of recording,

0:13:460:13:47

they simply have the names 113-ium,

0:13:470:13:49

115-ium, and so on.

0:13:490:13:52

And the last one is 4 of 4: U-u-o,

0:13:520:13:55

because we're translating numbers

0:13:550:13:57

into Latin, and 118-ium,

0:13:570:13:59

ununoctium, Uuo.

0:13:590:14:01

It reminds you of the Tom Lehrer song.

0:14:010:14:03

Do you know the Tom Lehrer song?

0:14:030:14:05

Not well enough to sing it!

0:14:050:14:07

"These are the only ones of which

0:14:070:14:09

"the news has come to Harvard,

0:14:090:14:10

"And there may be many others,

0:14:100:14:12

"but they haven't been DISCARVARD."

0:14:120:14:13

The Elements Song, and these are new

0:14:130:14:15

elements not yet permanently named.

0:14:150:14:17

Korfballers, what would you like next?

0:14:180:14:20

I think we'll revert to type and have the Lion, please.

0:14:200:14:22

The Lion, OK. What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:14:220:14:25

Here's the first.

0:14:250:14:26

THEY CONFER

0:14:290:14:32

Next, please.

0:14:320:14:33

-Is she...?

-She's done other things as well.

0:14:420:14:45

No, no, really?

0:14:480:14:50

INDISTINCT

0:14:500:14:53

-Who played the most recent one?

-Oh, it's Halley Berry.

0:14:530:14:58

-Ann Hathaway.

-Is the right answer.

0:14:580:15:00

Well done. What are we looking at?

0:15:000:15:02

We are looking at various stages of Catwoman.

0:15:020:15:06

That's absolutely right. Well, not necessarily stages,

0:15:060:15:08

these are all Catwomen.

0:15:080:15:11

They are the four people to play

0:15:110:15:13

Catwoman in live action cinema

0:15:130:15:15

release films and the next would be Anne Hathaway.

0:15:150:15:17

Well done.

0:15:170:15:18

Which is the best Catwoman?

0:15:180:15:19

-Anne Hathaway.

-Really?

0:15:190:15:21

Michelle Pfeiffer.

0:15:210:15:22

Obviously, Michelle Pfeiffer!

0:15:220:15:24

Possibly Lee Meriwether.

0:15:240:15:26

She was a great Catwoman.

0:15:260:15:27

You're too young.

0:15:270:15:29

I'm also too young by the way,

0:15:290:15:30

I've just seen old repeats,

0:15:300:15:31

that's all that is!

0:15:310:15:33

Surrealists, what would you like?

0:15:330:15:34

-Horned Viper, please.

-The Horned Viper.

0:15:340:15:36

What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:15:360:15:38

Here's the first.

0:15:380:15:40

THEY CONFER

0:15:420:15:45

Next, please.

0:15:530:15:55

With population... It's population.

0:16:010:16:04

California is the most populous state.

0:16:040:16:09

Yeah?

0:16:090:16:10

First, Alaska, California.

0:16:150:16:19

Well done, that is the right answer,

0:16:190:16:21

and why?

0:16:210:16:22

So, the state on the top is going backwards in order of size,

0:16:220:16:28

so it finishes with the largest

0:16:280:16:30

and the state underneath is going upwards

0:16:300:16:32

in size of population, so it finishes with the most populous.

0:16:320:16:37

That's right. So they are sizes

0:16:370:16:39

of American States going backwards

0:16:390:16:41

and the top one is the size geographically

0:16:410:16:43

and the lowest one by population.

0:16:430:16:44

Alaska for example, like my last

0:16:440:16:46

birthday party, huge with no people.

0:16:460:16:49

And California is full of people,

0:16:490:16:51

but not as big.

0:16:510:16:52

Very well calculated.

0:16:520:16:53

Well done to you.

0:16:530:16:55

Korfballers, what would you like next?

0:16:550:16:57

-The Twisted Flax, please.

-The Twisted Flax, OK.

0:16:570:16:59

These are going to be picture clues.

0:16:590:17:00

What would you expect to see in the fourth picture?

0:17:000:17:02

Here is the first.

0:17:020:17:05

THEY CONFER

0:17:080:17:10

Next, please.

0:17:130:17:14

Next, please.

0:17:200:17:21

So is it just the decreasing...?

0:17:270:17:28

Is it going to be the microscope?

0:17:280:17:30

Is it a magnifying glass, possibly with the letter I in it?

0:17:370:17:41

It is a magnifying glass

0:17:410:17:42

with the letter I in it.

0:17:420:17:43

Very well done.

0:17:430:17:44

What are we looking at?

0:17:440:17:46

Concentric parts of the QI logo.

0:17:460:17:48

That is absolutely right.

0:17:480:17:50

We are going into the QI roundel.

0:17:500:17:52

Do you know what features in

0:17:520:17:53

these images of the outer circles?

0:17:530:17:56

I'm sure they are extremely clever people's writings.

0:17:560:17:58

Well, it depends on your point of view.

0:18:000:18:02

The first one is the Dead Sea Scrolls.

0:18:020:18:04

That's in that circle.

0:18:040:18:05

Then Newtonian scientific formulae, and then clue three, that white one,

0:18:050:18:09

that's an astrological clock going in

0:18:090:18:12

towards the QI logo of the "i" in the middle. Well done.

0:18:120:18:16

Surrealists, one question remains.

0:18:160:18:17

It is Water again.

0:18:170:18:19

What would you expect to see fourth in this sequence?

0:18:190:18:22

Here is the first.

0:18:220:18:23

Next, please.

0:18:270:18:29

Is it something with one...

0:18:370:18:39

-Try another one.

-Sure?

0:18:470:18:50

Yeah, OK.

0:18:550:18:56

Yeah?

0:18:560:18:58

-D'Artagnan.

-And why would that be?

0:18:590:19:01

Because he has one sword.

0:19:010:19:03

I will accept that answer,

0:19:030:19:04

even though I expect D'Artagnan

0:19:040:19:05

probably has millions of swords.

0:19:050:19:07

If you mean the one primary sword -

0:19:070:19:09

one at a time, often the rule, with swords. That is the right answer.

0:19:090:19:12

Very well done.

0:19:120:19:14

Can you describe the recuperation card in the tarot?

0:19:140:19:16

-Must have four...

-Don't know!

0:19:160:19:18

It's a knight with one sword, but three swords hanging above.

0:19:200:19:24

The flag of Essex, three Saxon swords.

0:19:240:19:27

And what about battlefield on an Ordnance Survey map?

0:19:270:19:29

Two crossed swords. Exactly.

0:19:290:19:31

And something with one sword, like

0:19:310:19:33

the Statue of Justice or D'Artagnan,

0:19:330:19:35

or me when I'm in

0:19:350:19:36

an old-fashioned mood. One sword.

0:19:360:19:39

Something with one sword is correct.

0:19:390:19:40

That means at the end of Round Two the Korfballers have eight points.

0:19:400:19:44

The Surrealists have 11.

0:19:440:19:46

Time now for the Connecting Wall and, Surrealists,

0:19:480:19:51

you will be going first, this time, so please choose Lion or Water.

0:19:510:19:55

-Lion, please.

-OK,

0:19:550:19:56

you have two and a half minutes to solve the Lion wall, starting now.

0:19:560:20:00

I think the theme is Calypso, so...

0:20:060:20:09

BUZZ

0:20:090:20:11

-So was Nestor.

-Which one?

-Nestor.

0:20:110:20:13

BUZZ

0:20:130:20:15

BUZZ

0:20:150:20:16

Fuchsia pink, coral pink, shocking pink...

0:20:160:20:20

oyster? No,

0:20:200:20:22

cos I think that is a card.

0:20:220:20:24

Octopus pink?

0:20:240:20:25

BUZZ

0:20:250:20:26

-Oyster card... Which is a card? Get Me There"?

-Yeah.

0:20:280:20:31

And your Oyster card.

0:20:310:20:32

No.

0:20:320:20:33

Navigo?

0:20:330:20:35

-Try octopus.

-Oh, yes, that rings a bell.

0:20:350:20:37

-Calypso rings a bell, actually.

-Try that.

0:20:370:20:40

Three lives now.

0:20:400:20:41

Travelcards and pinks.

0:20:410:20:43

-We've got...

-So we've got Polyphemus and Circe...

0:20:430:20:48

All from the Odyssey.

0:20:480:20:50

-So is Nestor.

-So what's Santeria and Ackee?

0:20:500:20:54

-These are Jamaican...

-That's Caribbean.

0:20:540:20:57

Is it Jamaican or Cuban?

0:20:570:20:59

Caribbean.

0:20:590:21:02

That's Caribbean, that's Caribbean.

0:21:020:21:04

-That's Caribbean.

-That's a kind of fish.

0:21:060:21:09

Go on, then.

0:21:090:21:11

We think that's the Odyssey.

0:21:110:21:16

What's...?

0:21:160:21:18

What are we going to say for this? From the Caribbean.

0:21:180:21:21

-What is Ackee?

-It's a fish.

0:21:210:21:23

You solved the wall, very well done.

0:21:230:21:26

That is an immediate four points.

0:21:260:21:27

What about the connections?

0:21:270:21:29

Tell me about the blue group.

0:21:290:21:31

Coral, oyster, shocking, fuchsia.

0:21:310:21:34

They are all types of pink.

0:21:340:21:36

They are all types of pink.

0:21:360:21:38

And what about the green one, starting Navigo?

0:21:380:21:41

-They are forms of travel card.

-Electronic travelcards.

0:21:410:21:45

That's right. Smart travelcards from around the world.

0:21:450:21:48

And what about the next group, starting Nausicaa?

0:21:480:21:52

They are in Homer's Odyssey.

0:21:520:21:55

They are characters in the Odyssey.

0:21:550:21:57

Absolutely right. And the last turquoise group, starting Santeria?

0:21:570:22:01

They come from the Caribbean.

0:22:010:22:03

They are all from the Caribbean.

0:22:030:22:05

Four points for the groups you found,

0:22:050:22:07

four more for the connections and the bonus for getting it all right.

0:22:070:22:10

That is the maximum of ten, very well done.

0:22:100:22:12

Let's bring in the Korfballers and give them the other Connecting Wall

0:22:120:22:15

and see what they can do about finding the hidden groups.

0:22:150:22:18

It will be the Water wall for you, the Lion has been taken.

0:22:180:22:21

You have got two and a half minutes to solve it, starting now.

0:22:210:22:26

Frink is a sculptor.

0:22:310:22:33

He is also a fictional professor.

0:22:340:22:36

Oh, OK.

0:22:360:22:37

-And Van Helsing?

-Van Helsing.

0:22:370:22:39

Shall we start with those?

0:22:390:22:41

Yeah.

0:22:410:22:43

INDISTINCT

0:22:430:22:45

BUZZ

0:22:450:22:47

-BUZZ

-Shall we try the Romans?

0:22:480:22:50

Or Consul... There's lots of them. Try the actual...

0:22:500:22:53

-BUZZ

-Nope.

0:22:560:22:58

What else is a centurion, then?

0:23:050:23:07

Shuttles, challengers?

0:23:090:23:10

-Paper chase, paper tiger, paper trail.

-Yeah, lovely.

-Paperclips.

0:23:130:23:17

So there are five of those.

0:23:170:23:19

BUZZ

0:23:210:23:23

BUZZ

0:23:230:23:26

BUZZ

0:23:260:23:27

Three lives now.

0:23:300:23:31

So, fictional professors. We've done...

0:23:320:23:35

INDISTINCT

0:23:350:23:38

-..we didn't look for?

-Yes, we did.

-OK.

0:23:380:23:40

Which...?

0:23:400:23:41

We need to get those three.

0:23:440:23:46

INDISTINCT

0:23:460:23:49

-Let's get your...

-So which would you...?

0:23:490:23:51

Let's try these professors again.

0:23:520:23:54

I think Centurion, Tiger and Challenger are...

0:23:540:23:56

BUZZ

0:23:560:23:58

So, we've missed out those two each.

0:23:580:24:01

So let's try missing out Frink.

0:24:010:24:04

BUZZ

0:24:040:24:05

So we're just going to go for Van Helsing?

0:24:050:24:07

Is there anything you can think of?

0:24:070:24:09

30 seconds.

0:24:090:24:10

What's the film called with Van Helsing?

0:24:100:24:13

-Dracula.

-Interview With A Vampire.

0:24:130:24:15

Let's just put them in and be ready to press.

0:24:170:24:20

Ten seconds.

0:24:290:24:30

No, that's your third life.

0:24:310:24:33

The wall has frozen.

0:24:330:24:34

But you found two groups, so that's two points immediately.

0:24:340:24:37

What about the connections?

0:24:370:24:38

Tell me about the first blue group, starting Praetor.

0:24:380:24:42

They are officers in the Roman army.

0:24:420:24:44

I'm sorry, they are Roman officials, but not in the military.

0:24:440:24:48

Aedile was actually a magistrate,

0:24:480:24:51

Consul was also a magistrate. I think a Legate is in the army,

0:24:510:24:53

but they are not all military, just Roman officials.

0:24:530:24:56

What about the green group? Clip, chase, money, trail.

0:24:560:25:00

They can all be preceded by "paper".

0:25:000:25:02

That's right.

0:25:020:25:03

Paperclip, paper chase, paper money and paper trail

0:25:030:25:06

And you can still get points for the

0:25:060:25:08

connections in the groups you didn't find.

0:25:080:25:10

So, let's resolve the wall. There we go.

0:25:100:25:12

Centurion, Tiger, Abrams, Merkava

0:25:120:25:16

Er...

0:25:160:25:17

Strange versions of world leaders.

0:25:170:25:21

Strange versions of world leaders?

0:25:210:25:24

Do you know, in a weird way, it almost is world leaders.

0:25:240:25:27

They are military tanks.

0:25:270:25:29

So if you are going to say that the weaponry rules us all,

0:25:290:25:32

which I'm not going to say, I can't give you the points,

0:25:320:25:36

they are various types of military tanks.

0:25:360:25:39

And the turquoise group? Challenger, Langdon, Van Helsing, Frink.

0:25:390:25:43

I think they are fictional professors.

0:25:430:25:45

They are all fictional professors.

0:25:450:25:46

So, you found two groups and two connections,

0:25:460:25:49

that is a total of four.

0:25:490:25:50

Let's have a look at the overall scores.

0:25:500:25:53

But of course, this is our new format where somebody goes

0:25:590:26:03

to the semifinal and nobody goes home, so none of this matters.

0:26:030:26:06

With that in mind, let's play Missing Vowels.

0:26:060:26:08

Fingers on buzzers, teams.

0:26:080:26:11

I can tell you that the first group are all varieties of sunflower.

0:26:110:26:15

Correct.

0:26:210:26:22

Lovely.

0:26:260:26:27

Yes, it is.

0:26:310:26:33

What a lovely group. The next category,

0:26:360:26:38

films with a word changed for its opposite.

0:26:380:26:41

Correct.

0:26:450:26:46

Correct.

0:26:510:26:52

Not it, I'm afraid.

0:26:560:26:58

To be an opposite it must be Mary Popp-OUTS.

0:27:000:27:04

Next clue.

0:27:040:27:05

Yes, it is.

0:27:100:27:11

Next category.

0:27:110:27:13

Correct.

0:27:210:27:23

Well done.

0:27:280:27:29

Yes, it is.

0:27:340:27:35

Correct.

0:27:390:27:40

END OF SHOW JINGLE

0:27:400:27:43

There will be no new category

0:27:430:27:45

because the bell has gone for the end of the quiz

0:27:450:27:47

and after a rather impressive Round Four, I can tell you that

0:27:470:27:49

the winners and straight through to the semifinals with 26 points are

0:27:490:27:54

the Surrealists. Very well done.

0:27:540:27:55

In second place with 17, it's the Korfballers.

0:27:550:27:58

But of course, you are not going home, nobody ever goes home now,

0:27:580:28:02

welcome to the Hotel California.

0:28:020:28:04

Thank you very much for watching

0:28:040:28:05

and I am terribly sorry about those weird noises from my stomach

0:28:050:28:08

during the wall round.

0:28:080:28:09

I made the mistake of trying to improve my hangover by having

0:28:090:28:12

a knocklewurst from the German cold cut platter at lunch.

0:28:120:28:16

I'm actually going to go off now and have another one.

0:28:160:28:18

That will sort me out.

0:28:180:28:19

Like getting a second bang on the head in a cartoon.

0:28:190:28:21

Goodbye.
