0:00:21 > 0:00:25Good evening and welcome to Only Connect, the grand final.
0:00:25 > 0:00:30Yes, this is it, the big night, the culmination of months of quizzing.
0:00:30 > 0:00:31I'm incredibly excited,
0:00:31 > 0:00:33my good mood tempered only
0:00:33 > 0:00:35by the fact that under ridiculous and excessive
0:00:35 > 0:00:38new scrutiny of the BBC, since last week's show,
0:00:38 > 0:00:42they've ruled that our champagne tower now has to be in shot.
0:00:42 > 0:00:43Anyway, let's get on with the final.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46Sorry about my appearance - I came straight from a dinner,
0:00:46 > 0:00:48I didn't have time to get changed.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Our finalists tonight are...
0:00:50 > 0:00:52On my right - Phyl Styles,
0:00:52 > 0:00:55a secondary school teacher who is fluent in six different Braille
0:00:55 > 0:00:58languages and has sung Swing Low, Sweet Chariot

0:01:09 > 0:01:13a software engineer who was thrown into a wall while dog sledding in
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Norway. United by a love of
0:01:15 > 0:01:18language, they are the Verbivores.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Graeme, you've played a record seven games to get to the final.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24How important is it to you to win now?
0:01:24 > 0:01:26It would be nice to win,
0:01:26 > 0:01:28but genuinely,
0:01:28 > 0:01:29we are just amazed that we got
0:01:29 > 0:01:30anywhere near this far.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32We'd won couple of games by one point,
0:01:32 > 0:01:34took the longest possible route to get here,
0:01:34 > 0:01:39we know we're up against a brilliant team, so win or lose, we're happy.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Your brilliant opponents tonight
0:01:41 > 0:01:44are, on my left - Annette Fenner,
0:01:44 > 0:01:46a medical journal editor who was
0:01:46 > 0:01:49the 1993 Seal primary school spelling champion

0:01:54 > 0:01:55Emily Watnick,
0:01:55 > 0:01:57a retired finance manager who,

0:02:02 > 0:02:04at a birthday party.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Their captain, Amy Godel,
0:02:07 > 0:02:11a semiretired maths teacher who has participated in a public crossword
0:02:11 > 0:02:14competition and whose great-great-grandmother
0:02:14 > 0:02:16was born in 1815 in Waterloo.
0:02:16 > 0:02:17United by a taste
0:02:17 > 0:02:18for travel and a tipple,
0:02:18 > 0:02:20they are the Cosmopolitans.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23You beat the Korfballers to secure your place in the final,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25how important is it to you to win?
0:02:25 > 0:02:27I'm just amazed that we beat
0:02:27 > 0:02:29the Korfballers, to be honest!
0:02:29 > 0:02:34Having got here, having got to the end, is really just fantastic.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36Well done, all of you, for making the final.
0:02:36 > 0:02:37Let's go on and play it.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Verbivores, you won the toss,
0:02:39 > 0:02:41please choose an Egyptian hieroglyphic.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43- Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46OK. Let the final begin with this question.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48Your time starts...now.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52Cordate, is that to do the heart?
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Cordate is...
0:02:55 > 0:02:56Next.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Right, black... Orange is that?
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Is it red? I don't know.
0:03:04 > 0:03:05Next.
0:03:07 > 0:03:08Trifoliate.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Um, something with four leaves?
0:03:11 > 0:03:15But what? In green, a four-leaf clover perhaps?
0:03:15 > 0:03:16Well, it's not a sequence, so what's the link?
0:03:16 > 0:03:18Oh, sorry!
0:03:18 > 0:03:19How many times have I played this?!
0:03:19 > 0:03:24So it's just, what, um, number of leaves and...
0:03:25 > 0:03:27- Three seconds.- Next.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31- Oh, the clock's run out! - Good start(!)- Bonus chance for you,
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Cosmopolitans.
0:03:33 > 0:03:38The colour of and the description of things on flags?
0:03:38 > 0:03:39They are not things on flags,
0:03:39 > 0:03:40I'm afraid.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42What they are is suits of the pack.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45- Of course they are! - Cordate is a sort of
0:03:45 > 0:03:47inverted heart shape, like a spade.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Then we've got heart-shaped.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Trifoliate, that's like clubs, it's that shape,
0:03:51 > 0:03:53and rhomboid, the diamond.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56The colours denote the suits of the pack.
0:03:56 > 0:03:57So, no points there, Cosmos,
0:03:57 > 0:03:59but you may choose a question.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Um, Horned Viper, please.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03The Viper. What is the connection between these clues?
0:04:03 > 0:04:05Here's the first.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08The property of a lady...
0:04:09 > 0:04:11No. Next.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14The Hildebrand Rarity.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Are they... Is it the names of...
0:04:19 > 0:04:20Next.
0:04:21 > 0:04:22Risico.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29They might be the names of some kind of...
0:04:30 > 0:04:32Shall we go with the next one?
0:04:32 > 0:04:33Next.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37007 in New York.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Um...
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Um... Are they...
0:04:46 > 0:04:50all written by Sebastian Faulks?
0:04:50 > 0:04:51They are not all written
0:04:51 > 0:04:52by Sebastian Faulks.
0:04:52 > 0:04:53So, Verbivores,
0:04:53 > 0:04:55you have a bonus chance now.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Are they spin-off films?
0:04:58 > 0:05:00It's almost the exact opposite.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02- Oh.- They are James Bond stories
0:05:02 > 0:05:04that have not been filmed.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07There are only four left - stories that haven't been filmed.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09The Property Of A Lady, that was going to be
0:05:09 > 0:05:10Timothy Dalton's next Bond film,
0:05:10 > 0:05:11but there was a legal problem,
0:05:11 > 0:05:12they stopped filming.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15The Hildebrand Rarity, that sounds brilliant.
0:05:15 > 0:05:16James Bond goes into a sort of
0:05:16 > 0:05:18old-fashioned murder mystery at sea.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20That sounds great. And also a great one for charades.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22The Hildebrand Rarity,
0:05:22 > 0:05:23how would you do it?
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Risico, or "Rizico",
0:05:25 > 0:05:26that's Bond investigating
0:05:26 > 0:05:28a drugs ring, and 007 In New York
0:05:28 > 0:05:29is a very short one
0:05:29 > 0:05:31about a Russian spy.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Anyway, who wants a question?
0:05:33 > 0:05:34Verbivores, you can have one.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36- Which will it be?- Can we have Twisted Flax, please?
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Why not? Twisted Flax.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40MUSICAL TONE It's the music question. I feel like a dance.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42What connects these clues? Here's the first.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46# Boy toy named Troy Used to live in Detroit
0:05:46 > 0:05:50# Big, big, big money He was gettin' some coins... #
0:05:51 > 0:05:52Next.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55# Have you seen her on the dance floor?
0:05:55 > 0:05:58# She got the boom Shake the room... #
0:05:58 > 0:05:59Next.
0:05:59 > 0:06:04# My momma, she told me Don't worry about your size
0:06:04 > 0:06:06# Shoo-wop-wop, sha-ooh, wop, wop
0:06:06 > 0:06:08# She says boys like the ladies... #
0:06:08 > 0:06:11- I know this one, but I can't remember its name.- Next.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13# Baby, can you handle this?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15# I don't think you can handle this... #
0:06:15 > 0:06:17It's all, talking about their size.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21# H-town goin' hard... #
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Are they talking about their size?
0:06:24 > 0:06:26I need to hear something specific.
0:06:26 > 0:06:27Big...
0:06:27 > 0:06:28Behinds?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Lovely big behinds...
0:06:30 > 0:06:32are being celebrated
0:06:32 > 0:06:34in this piece of music.
0:06:34 > 0:06:35We're testing two things
0:06:35 > 0:06:36with this question.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38One - do you know the pieces,
0:06:38 > 0:06:39two - dare you say the answer?
0:06:39 > 0:06:40What did we hear?
0:06:42 > 0:06:44For the first one big, big, big something.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46- Behinds, I suppose. - The song was called Anaconda.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Well, it was sampling Sir Mixalot.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50It's a Nicki Minaj song.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53They sampled the bit where the chap sings apparently,
0:06:53 > 0:06:55"My anaconda don't want none
0:06:55 > 0:06:58"Unless you got buns, hon."
0:06:58 > 0:06:59And Nicki Minaj sings,
0:06:59 > 0:07:01"He toss my salad
0:07:01 > 0:07:02"like his name Romaine
0:07:02 > 0:07:04"and when we done
0:07:04 > 0:07:06"I make him buy me Balmain."
0:07:06 > 0:07:08That's a lovely message for the
0:07:08 > 0:07:09young women of today, isn't it?
0:07:09 > 0:07:10That's absolutely lovely.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12What else did we hear?
0:07:12 > 0:07:13Last one, Bootylicious?
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Bootylicious, Destiny's Child.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17All About That Bass, Meghan Trainor.
0:07:17 > 0:07:18And the second one -
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Booty, Jennifer Lopez.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22"Mesmerised by the size of it
0:07:22 > 0:07:24"You can fight it if you like
0:07:24 > 0:07:25"Take your time."
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Quite the image to juggle, isn't it?
0:07:27 > 0:07:29"You can fight it if you like,"
0:07:29 > 0:07:31that's an evening. Well done, you get the point.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Cosmopolitans, what would you like?
0:07:33 > 0:07:34- Lion.- Lion, please.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Lion. What is the connection between these clues? Here's the first.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Bravo 9.30.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Next.
0:07:48 > 0:07:49Oh, OK...
0:07:49 > 0:07:51ANNETTE WHISPERS
0:07:53 > 0:07:54So...
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Yes, yes.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Next.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05R 3.45, B 9.30,
0:08:05 > 0:08:09J three o'clock. R...
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Next.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Delta six o'clock.
0:08:16 > 0:08:17Um...
0:08:18 > 0:08:21The times of different watches
0:08:21 > 0:08:22on ships?
0:08:22 > 0:08:23Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Verbivores, do you want to have a go for a bonus?
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Are these the semaphore representations
0:08:28 > 0:08:32of these letters as they would appear on a clock?
0:08:32 > 0:08:34That's absolutely brilliant.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Cheers to you.
0:08:36 > 0:08:37I can't demonstrate it myself in
0:08:37 > 0:08:39this dress before the watershed,
0:08:39 > 0:08:41but if you could hold your arms
0:08:41 > 0:08:43in the shapes denoted here,
0:08:43 > 0:08:46if you hold your arm at 9.30, please.
0:08:46 > 0:08:47Like that. My 9.30.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50- Well, that's not really 9.30, is it? - The camera's 9.30.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52You'd be bit more sort of...
0:08:52 > 0:08:54Well, that's the letter B.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57That's B in flag semaphore.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Phyl, could you show us
0:08:59 > 0:09:00three o'clock?
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Well, I know D is up there.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Well, it's J we're looking for,
0:09:04 > 0:09:05and that's three o'clock.
0:09:05 > 0:09:06You see, if you were...
0:09:06 > 0:09:08- Like that.- There you go. 3.45?
0:09:08 > 0:09:11R. And 6pm, or 6am,
0:09:11 > 0:09:13that's the D, that's Delta.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15So, if you held your arms out
0:09:15 > 0:09:18for semaphore to denote these letters on a clock face,
0:09:18 > 0:09:20that's the time it would be.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21Amazingly well spotted.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23What would you like next, Verbivores?
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- Eye of Horus, please. - The Eye of Horus.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27OK. These are going to be picture clues, what connects them?
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Here's the first.
0:09:31 > 0:09:32No? Next.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Looks familiar, don't know his name.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40Next.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Oh, Mackenzie Crook.
0:09:42 > 0:09:47- Um...- We need something else.- Next.
0:09:47 > 0:09:48John Craven.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50They all mean crooked, don't they?
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Well, the surnames are synonyms.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56Are their surnames associated with crookedness?
0:09:56 > 0:09:57I'm afraid their surnames are not
0:09:57 > 0:09:59all associated with crookedness.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01So, Cosmopolitans, your chance for a bonus?
0:10:01 > 0:10:04If you took the first letter off, they would be birds.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06If you took the first letter off, they would be birds.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Who are we looking at?
0:10:08 > 0:10:09There's Alan Clark.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11- Yes.- ALL:- Mackenzie Crook.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13- ALL:- John Craven.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14But we don't know who that first one is.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16That's Joan Chen.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Or hen.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21They all begin with the C, and if you take it off, you get Hen
0:10:21 > 0:10:23from Chen, lark from Clark,
0:10:23 > 0:10:24rook from Crook
0:10:24 > 0:10:26and raven from Craven. Yes.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Birds at the end of their names.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30That's the sort of one I think
0:10:30 > 0:10:31you'd get, Verbivores, normally.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33So you get a bonus, Cosmopolitans,
0:10:33 > 0:10:34and the last question, Water,
0:10:34 > 0:10:36what is the connection between these clues? Here's the first.
0:10:40 > 0:10:45Is it, then, construction, a point, house.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47OK, next.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51The legs of Mrs Wilcox?
0:10:54 > 0:10:56- I don't know.- Next.
0:10:59 > 0:11:00It's got to be "only connect"...
0:11:01 > 0:11:05Yes, but what's the other thing?
0:11:05 > 0:11:07What is the other thing?
0:11:07 > 0:11:08Next.
0:11:12 > 0:11:13Three seconds.
0:11:15 > 0:11:16- So...- Oh,
0:11:16 > 0:11:18it's "only connect"
0:11:18 > 0:11:20and something to do with Howard's Way
0:11:20 > 0:11:22where the saying is from.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Howard's End, even, not Howard's Way!
0:11:24 > 0:11:26What to do with it?
0:11:26 > 0:11:27We're looking at "only connect"...
0:11:27 > 0:11:29- Yes.- And then...
0:11:29 > 0:11:32And then names of others,
0:11:32 > 0:11:34other EM Forster...
0:11:34 > 0:11:37- Or parts of EM Forster. - I'm afraid that's not it.
0:11:37 > 0:11:38Verbivores, do you want
0:11:38 > 0:11:39to have a go for a bonus?
0:11:39 > 0:11:42They are "only connect" in different languages
0:11:42 > 0:11:44and what is it, Howard's End, when it was translated to those,
0:11:44 > 0:11:46shall we try that?
0:11:46 > 0:11:47That is what it is.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49I'm afraid in the final, I need to hear that.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51It is the phrase "only connect",
0:11:51 > 0:11:55translated in the EM Forster novel Howard's End,
0:11:55 > 0:11:57and in bracket is the title Howard's End.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Of course, it's not called Howard's End in all the languages,
0:12:00 > 0:12:02so La Mansion in Spanish,
0:12:02 > 0:12:04The Legs De Mrs Wilcox in French -
0:12:04 > 0:12:07that's the legacy of Mrs Wilcox, that's what that's called.
0:12:07 > 0:12:08I don't really speak Portuguese,
0:12:08 > 0:12:10but The House again in Portuguese,
0:12:10 > 0:12:12and Casa Howard, that's really the
0:12:12 > 0:12:14clue, in Italian, solo connettere.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16So it is the title Howard's End,
0:12:16 > 0:12:17as it translates in different
0:12:17 > 0:12:19languages with our key quote.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21So, another bonus for you,
0:12:21 > 0:12:22Verbivores. And that means,
0:12:22 > 0:12:23at the end of Round One,
0:12:23 > 0:12:25the Cosmopolitans have one point,
0:12:25 > 0:12:27the Verbivores have three.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31Onto Round Two - sequences -
0:12:31 > 0:12:32and you will be going first again.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Please choose a hieroglyph.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- Eye of Horus, please. - The Eye of Horus.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38What would come forth in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Wow.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44I don't have any idea.
0:12:44 > 0:12:45Next.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Gamma hydroxybutyrate, is that vitamin C?
0:12:51 > 0:12:52- Go next.- Next.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Mephedrone, B. It's going to be something A.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58Is it vitamins?
0:12:58 > 0:13:00I mean, vitamin A, is it retinol A?
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Could go for that.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04Well, yes.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Retinol brackets A, close brackets.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12I'm afraid it absolutely is not that!
0:13:12 > 0:13:13Cosmopolitans, do you want to have
0:13:13 > 0:13:15a go for a bonus point?
0:13:15 > 0:13:18Um, so, it would be heroin A?
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Heroin A would be
0:13:20 > 0:13:21an acceptable answer,
0:13:21 > 0:13:22or as we went for,
0:13:22 > 0:13:24magic mushrooms.
0:13:24 > 0:13:25What are we looking at?
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Legal classes of drugs.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29- Well...- Illegal classes.
0:13:29 > 0:13:30I'm not sure, if heroin's legal
0:13:30 > 0:13:32since we started this show,
0:13:32 > 0:13:33nobody's told me!
0:13:33 > 0:13:35It's drug classification, that's right.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37It's that first one, where the drugs
0:13:37 > 0:13:39are not yet criminalised.
0:13:39 > 0:13:40So this one we're looking at,
0:13:40 > 0:13:42also known as Posh or Banshee Dust,
0:13:42 > 0:13:43I'm reliably informed
0:13:43 > 0:13:44by our question editor,
0:13:44 > 0:13:46who has certainly never taken illegal drugs -
0:13:46 > 0:13:47I mean, he really hasn't,
0:13:47 > 0:13:49you can barely get him to have a cup of tea.
0:13:49 > 0:13:50So that's a temporary class
0:13:50 > 0:13:52while it's waiting for something else.
0:13:52 > 0:13:53And then we're looking at class C,
0:13:53 > 0:13:55class B and I want to hear
0:13:55 > 0:13:57some sort of drug that is very bad.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Retinol A, not it.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01So you get that bonus, Cosmos,
0:14:01 > 0:14:02and you may choose a question.
0:14:02 > 0:14:03Horned Viper, please.
0:14:03 > 0:14:07OK, what would come fourth in this picture sequence?
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Here's the first.
0:14:11 > 0:14:12Um...
0:14:12 > 0:14:14- Let's got the next one.- Next.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18It's a big baby in a parade.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Next.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Oh, my goodness.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Yes, and what happened?
0:14:32 > 0:14:34- And what happened?- Yes.
0:14:34 > 0:14:39We're going to have to figure something out.
0:14:39 > 0:14:40Three seconds.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Um...
0:14:44 > 0:14:45A giant...
0:14:45 > 0:14:48- Um...- Elephant.- ..Balloon.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50In the shape of an elephant, perhaps.
0:14:50 > 0:14:51It is not a giant balloon
0:14:51 > 0:14:53in the shape of an elephant.
0:14:53 > 0:14:54So, Verbivores, you've got
0:14:54 > 0:14:55the chance of a bonus point.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57A giant effigy of David Cameron?
0:14:57 > 0:14:58Is the right answer.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Of course, Lewes fireworks, isn't it?
0:15:00 > 0:15:02It's Lewes fireworks, yes.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04In Lewes, in Sussex, every year on
0:15:04 > 0:15:06Bonfire Night, they burn effigies.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09They burn the Pope and Guy Fawkes and there's a sort of topical guest
0:15:09 > 0:15:11attraction. Let's all try
0:15:11 > 0:15:12to identify who they are.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Who do you think that is in the first picture, 2012?
0:15:14 > 0:15:16I don't know, I have no idea!
0:15:16 > 0:15:17Angela Merkel, of course.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Oh, the German flag, yes!
0:15:19 > 0:15:22And you said a big baby in a parade.
0:15:22 > 0:15:26Now you know it's a topical guest of 2013, it is of course...
0:15:26 > 0:15:27Prince George?
0:15:27 > 0:15:29Kim Jong Un, that's right!
0:15:31 > 0:15:33And sandwiched uncomfortably between
0:15:33 > 0:15:35Kim Jong Un and David Cameron,
0:15:35 > 0:15:36that third picture?
0:15:36 > 0:15:38- Alex Salmond.- It is Alex Salmond,
0:15:38 > 0:15:39yes, yes, yes.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Once you know, it's so obvious.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Very well done for the bonus.
0:15:43 > 0:15:44Which question would you like?
0:15:44 > 0:15:46- Lion, please.- Lion, OK.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48What would come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:15:50 > 0:15:51Capital Q.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Nope. Next.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00What is this?
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Q, U.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Is it going to spell out a four-letter word? Q, U...
0:16:04 > 0:16:06- I don't know.- Next.- Next.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10So, Pakistan's capital is Islamabad.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Mongolia's is Ulaanbaatar, but I don't know what the sequence is.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17So, what's fourth?
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Q, U, I...
0:16:19 > 0:16:22- Capital of Kuwait, for example. - Quiz?
0:16:22 > 0:16:26Yeah. Croatia's is. Capital Z, in brackets - C.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31Capital Z, brackets - C - close brackets.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34The answer is Capital Z brackets C.
0:16:34 > 0:16:35Tom, perhaps you could explain
0:16:35 > 0:16:36what the sequence is?
0:16:36 > 0:16:40The letter in the brackets begins a country which is the only one with a
0:16:40 > 0:16:42capital beginning with a previous letter.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44That's exactly right. There are only
0:16:44 > 0:16:46four letters of the alphabet which
0:16:46 > 0:16:47are the first letters
0:16:47 > 0:16:48of a capital city only one time.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50So there's only one capital
0:16:50 > 0:16:52that begins with a Q, and that is of course...
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Quito of Ecuador.
0:16:54 > 0:16:55There's only one U...
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58That's absolutely right. One I.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Islamabad, Pakistan.
0:17:00 > 0:17:01And of course, we're not going
0:17:01 > 0:17:02in alphabetical order,
0:17:02 > 0:17:04we are spelling out the word quiz,
0:17:04 > 0:17:06so I wanted to hear Z for Zagreb,
0:17:06 > 0:17:08the capital of Croatia.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Very well done. Well quizzed.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Cosmopolitans, what would you like?
0:17:12 > 0:17:15- Twisted Flax, please. - Twisted Flax, OK.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19What would come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Right.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27Next.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31Nighthawks, there are two people in it.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Is it the number of people?
0:17:33 > 0:17:34- It's not, there's four.- Possibly.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36Shall we go for the third one?
0:17:36 > 0:17:38- Yes, I think we better.- Next.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Yes, so...
0:17:41 > 0:17:43THEY WHISPER
0:17:51 > 0:17:52Yes, OK.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56I'm so sorry.
0:17:56 > 0:17:57THEY LAUGH
0:17:57 > 0:18:00The Mona Lisa, brackets - da Vinci.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Not, I'm afraid, the right answer.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05So, Verbivores, what's your guess
0:18:05 > 0:18:06for a bonus point?
0:18:07 > 0:18:10- Irises, brackets - Van Gogh? - Not it either.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12What sequence are you thinking of?
0:18:12 > 0:18:15- We're thinking the number of people in the pictures.- Right.
0:18:15 > 0:18:19And we were going down, and we were thinking four, three, two, one,
0:18:19 > 0:18:21because we thought there were two in The Scream.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24I'm afraid there are three people in The Scream.
0:18:24 > 0:18:25Really?
0:18:25 > 0:18:26There are five dancers
0:18:26 > 0:18:28in Matisse's Dance II.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30There are four people in Hopper's Nighthawks.
0:18:30 > 0:18:31American Gothic, then?
0:18:31 > 0:18:33American Gothic is the very one we went with, yes.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36In The Scream, there is the chap that people say
0:18:36 > 0:18:38has just heard a scream,
0:18:38 > 0:18:39and there's actually two people
0:18:39 > 0:18:41walking away, so three.
0:18:41 > 0:18:42So we need to hear a painting
0:18:42 > 0:18:44with two people in it - for example,
0:18:44 > 0:18:45American Gothic.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47So no points there, Verbivores,
0:18:47 > 0:18:49but you may choose a question.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52- Water, please.- OK, what would come fourth in this sequence?
0:18:52 > 0:18:53Here's the first.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56That's the golden ratio, isn't it?
0:18:56 > 0:18:58It's phi.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00If we are doing Greek letters, do you know...?
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Next.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08That's chi, isn't it?
0:19:08 > 0:19:10- Phi, chi...- Omega.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Is omega the last one?
0:19:12 > 0:19:13Yes.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16HE MUMBLES
0:19:16 > 0:19:18What represents omega?
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Is it an ohm, yeah.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24The symbol for an ohm, the unit of resistance.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27- And why would that be? - Because it's an omega.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Once again, that is the right answer
0:19:29 > 0:19:31in a very difficult final question.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33Well done. Talk me through these clues.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36They're the last four letters of the Greek alphabet -
0:19:36 > 0:19:38the golden ratio is represented by phi,
0:19:38 > 0:19:40the life force in Chinese medicine is chi,
0:19:40 > 0:19:42- pounds per square inch is psi... - And for example,
0:19:42 > 0:19:44the last element of the sequence
0:19:44 > 0:19:46or the Charlton Heston film -
0:19:46 > 0:19:48something Man - some kind of representation of omega,
0:19:48 > 0:19:50very well done.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Cosmopolitans, one horrible question
0:19:52 > 0:19:55remains for you, it is the Two Reeds,
0:19:55 > 0:19:58what will come fourth in this sequence? Here is the first.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02OK, Brazil 4...
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Are these the World Cup final results?
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Is it? No?
0:20:08 > 0:20:09Next.
0:20:10 > 0:20:132006 Italy 3...
0:20:13 > 0:20:14What happened? Italy won.
0:20:14 > 0:20:172010 was Spain...
0:20:17 > 0:20:20- 2014...- Yeah, is what?
0:20:20 > 0:20:22- Germany.- Germany...
0:20:22 > 0:20:24- One.- One.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26- That's too easy.- Surely.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Is it really 4-3?
0:20:28 > 0:20:29What do you think?
0:20:31 > 0:20:32Yeah. But would it...
0:20:32 > 0:20:34THEY WHISPER
0:20:34 > 0:20:36- Could it be?- Argentina.
0:20:36 > 0:20:37Two seconds.
0:20:38 > 0:20:42So it's 2014.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43What do you think, Emily?
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Germany one, Argentina nil.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Verbivores, you've got the chance of a bonus point.
0:20:50 > 0:20:532014...
0:20:53 > 0:20:55HE STUTTERS
0:20:55 > 0:20:58..Germany four, Argentina three.
0:20:58 > 0:20:59That's not it.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01But why are you saying that?
0:21:01 > 0:21:06I think it's the finalists in the World Cup and the number of times
0:21:06 > 0:21:09they've won the World Cup after that game was played.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Your problem is, it was before
0:21:11 > 0:21:12that game was played.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14You have spotted the horrible thing we've done here.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16It couldn't be 0-0, could it?!
0:21:16 > 0:21:18They are successive
0:21:18 > 0:21:20World Cup matches
0:21:20 > 0:21:22and they are the finalists in those matches,
0:21:22 > 0:21:24but the numbers represent not the score,
0:21:24 > 0:21:25but the number of World Cups those
0:21:25 > 0:21:27teams had previously won before they
0:21:27 > 0:21:29got the final. As you say yourself,
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Spain and the Netherlands had won no
0:21:31 > 0:21:34World Cups, so Germany had won three
0:21:34 > 0:21:36and Argentina two when they went in
0:21:36 > 0:21:38to that 2014 final.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39But I see my drinks are coming to an end,
0:21:39 > 0:21:41so we'd better finish the round.
0:21:41 > 0:21:42I'll give you the scores.
0:21:42 > 0:21:46Cosmopolitans, two, Verbivores nine.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50And just when you were thinking it couldn't get nastier,
0:21:50 > 0:21:52time for the Connecting Wall.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54And you'll be going first this time, Cosmopolitans.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Would you like Lion or Water?
0:21:56 > 0:21:58- Water, please.- OK,
0:21:58 > 0:22:02you have 2½ minutes to solve the Water wall, starting now.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Oh, great, OK.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08So 1837 is Victoria coming to the throne.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10- What other years...?- 1558...
0:22:10 > 0:22:12- 1952 was the Queen.- The Queen, yes.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- 1702.- Yes.
0:22:15 > 0:22:16OK. Great.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18There... Are there some cubes?
0:22:18 > 0:22:21343 is a cube. 125, 27, one.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Oh, 1, yes.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27- OK.- Three lives now.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31- Oh, dear! That's unfortunate. - 5, 6, 7, 8, is a song by Steps.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34It is. One is probably a song.
0:22:34 > 0:22:35- 1999, is that?- Yes!
0:22:35 > 0:22:37- 1999 is a song.- Prince.
0:22:37 > 0:22:38Let's not solve.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40- OK.- What's the other one?
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- 10,000?- 5.15?
0:22:42 > 0:22:43And what of all of these others?
0:22:43 > 0:22:44That's the thing, right.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Shall we undo these?
0:22:46 > 0:22:48- So if you look at them...- Yeah.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51So, 400, 1500...
0:22:51 > 0:22:54Are these measurements of something like the lines on a TV?
0:22:54 > 0:22:56They are sort of athletics things.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Yes, 1500, 400, 110 and 10,000, yes.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03You've solved the Wall! Absolutely amazing.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Not even halfway through the time.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07That was incredible. What about the connections, then?
0:23:07 > 0:23:09The first group, 1837,
0:23:09 > 0:23:11or 1-8-3-7, and so on.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14The accession dates of British queens.
0:23:14 > 0:23:15That's absolutely right.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17Queenly accession dates.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19And the next green group, starting 27?
0:23:19 > 0:23:21They're just cubes.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23They're just cubes, simple as that, just cubes.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26And the pink or purple group, starting 1500?
0:23:26 > 0:23:28Athletics distances?
0:23:28 > 0:23:29They are athletics distances.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31Some people might not recognise 110.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33That's the high hurdles for men.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Men's sprint hurdles, absolutely right.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38And the last turquoise group, starting 1999.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40It's songs.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43It is songs. It's actually 1999,
0:23:43 > 0:23:44isn't it, by Prince?
0:23:44 > 0:23:45So, you told me all four connections
0:23:45 > 0:23:47as well, and of course,
0:23:47 > 0:23:50you get the bonus. That is a maximum of ten on this horrible final wall.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Very well done.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Let's bring in the Verbivores now and give them another
0:23:54 > 0:23:57wall to see what they can do with it.
0:23:57 > 0:23:58Welcome back, Verbivores.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00I don't know if you'll think it's much of a welcome.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02You're going to be getting the Lion wall.
0:24:02 > 0:24:052½ minutes to solve it, starting...
0:24:05 > 0:24:06now.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09I'm off! OK,
0:24:09 > 0:24:12so that's the
0:24:12 > 0:24:14freezing point in Kelvin, isn't it?
0:24:14 > 0:24:15That's it in Fahrenheit.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17That's the freezing point in Celsius.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19- Um...- That one?- Go on, then.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22- There we are! - 1066 is an important date.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26- A battle. 1087...- That's a change of reign.- Yes, it is.
0:24:26 > 0:24:27That's a change of reign.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Shall we go round the years?
0:24:29 > 0:24:30- Oh, right.- Three lives now.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32It's record speeds, record speeds.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34- Speed of records. - That one, that one, that one and...
0:24:34 > 0:24:37Right. Ten, infinity, 300, 2012...
0:24:37 > 0:24:40- Films.- Are they all names of films?
0:24:40 > 0:24:42300 is definitely a film, the Spartans.
0:24:42 > 0:24:432012 is a disaster movie.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45Infinity and Ten probably are.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47- Shall we go with that? - And I think that...
0:24:47 > 0:24:49You've solved the wall!
0:24:49 > 0:24:50That's amazing!
0:24:50 > 0:24:53I wasn't thinking that was particularly a wall for a wordy
0:24:53 > 0:24:55team. Very well done.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Let's have a look for those connections.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01Tell me about the first blue group, starting 32.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03They're freezing points of water
0:25:03 > 0:25:05in various scales of temperature.
0:25:05 > 0:25:06Freezing points of water.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10And the green group - 1066, or 1-0-6-6, and so on.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Changes of reign.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Changes of reign in...
0:25:15 > 0:25:17- British monarchs.- ..England. - I need to hear something specific.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19It's when Williams took over.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22Accessions of Kings William.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26And the next group, starting 3-3-1-3.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28They are record speeds.
0:25:28 > 0:25:3033 and a third and so on
0:25:30 > 0:25:31are all record speeds.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35And the turquoise group - 300, or 3-0-0, what are they?
0:25:35 > 0:25:36They are names of films?
0:25:36 > 0:25:38They are film titles.
0:25:38 > 0:25:39So, you did find all the groups
0:25:39 > 0:25:41and tell me all the connections -
0:25:41 > 0:25:43that is a total of ten points.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45Let's have a look at the scores.
0:25:52 > 0:25:56We will now decide the Championship in the missing vowels round.
0:25:56 > 0:25:57Fingers on buzzers, teams.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59I can tell you that the first group are all...

0:26:08 > 0:26:09Correct.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18- Cosmos?- October and opal.
0:26:18 > 0:26:19Well done.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23- Verbivores? ALL:- May and emeralds.
0:26:23 > 0:26:24Correct. Next category...
0:26:27 > 0:26:29Careful.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34- Verbivores.- Bag, big, big, bog, bug.
0:26:34 > 0:26:35Correct.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39Verbivores?

0:26:42 > 0:26:43Correct.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48- Cosmopolitans?- Mass, mess...
0:26:48 > 0:26:49Not it, I'm afraid, Verbivores.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53Masses, messes, misses, mosses, musses.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56There are extra S for plurals, that's right.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57Verbivores?
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Last, lest, list, lost, lust.
0:27:00 > 0:27:01Well done. Next category...
0:27:05 > 0:27:06Cosmopolitans?
0:27:06 > 0:27:08- Scampi.- Correct.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11Cosmos?

0:27:17 > 0:27:18Correct.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21- Verbivores?- Pickled egg.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Don't mind if I do. Next category...
0:27:26 > 0:27:28- Cosmopolitans?- Arbitrary.- Yep.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32- Verbivores?- Indiscriminate.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Correct.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36END MUSIC PLAYS
0:27:38 > 0:27:40No time to tell me the next
0:27:40 > 0:27:43random word, which was irregular.
0:27:43 > 0:27:44The bell has gone
0:27:44 > 0:27:46for the end of the quiz.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49And I can tell you that our second-place finishers
0:27:49 > 0:27:51have 18 points,
0:27:51 > 0:27:53but the winners with 26
0:27:53 > 0:27:55and the new champions of Only Connect
0:27:55 > 0:27:57are the Verbivores.
0:27:57 > 0:27:58Very well done to you.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00Excellent stuff.
0:28:00 > 0:28:01Well done, everybody. You all
0:28:01 > 0:28:02quizzed absolutely brilliantly.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04Fantastic. But you Verbivores
0:28:04 > 0:28:06are the champions.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08Well done.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11And that's it, it's the end of the show and the series.
0:28:11 > 0:28:15We are about to have our magnificent closing ceremony,
0:28:15 > 0:28:17and then it will be a few months until we meet again.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19But in the gap, if you miss us,
0:28:19 > 0:28:21why not recreate the Only Connect experience
0:28:21 > 0:28:24by trying to make small talk with a teenager?
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Just like answering the questions on this show,
0:28:26 > 0:28:29you'll find that whatever you say is probably wrong.
0:28:29 > 0:28:30Goodbye.
