0:00:24 > 0:00:27Tonight, in the style of The Great British Bake Off,

0:00:27 > 0:00:29we will be presenting a signature dish,

0:00:29 > 0:00:31a technical challenge

0:00:31 > 0:00:33and a show-stopping fruitcake.

0:00:33 > 0:00:34Let's meet the teams.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38On my right, Andrew Burford,

0:00:38 > 0:00:42an enthusiastic home-brewer who was disappointed by Rome.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45Simon Williams, a Cambridge law graduate who has written

0:00:45 > 0:00:48a play about Big Brother in iambic pentameter,

0:00:48 > 0:00:52and their captain Neil Clarke, a chartered accountant

0:00:52 > 0:00:55who has played outdoor chess with the Gambian national champion.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58United by a fondness for fielding, they are the Cricketers.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Now, you are our lucky losers.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03You lost your opening heat against the Inquisitors

0:01:03 > 0:01:07but you got back in anyway because of your high score.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09How's the team morale ahead of the game?

0:01:09 > 0:01:10It's actually pretty good, I think.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12We're just very pleased to have got this far.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14We played against a great team and...

0:01:14 > 0:01:16..quite proud of ourselves.

0:01:16 > 0:01:17- Welcome back.- Thank you.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20This time you're facing, on my left,

0:01:20 > 0:01:22Frank Paul, an artist and pub quiz host

0:01:22 > 0:01:28who was surprised by an intimate prophecy while sketching a camel,

0:01:28 > 0:01:30Tom Rowell, a former prison worker

0:01:30 > 0:01:33who went on a ride at EuroDisney with Bobby Davro,

0:01:33 > 0:01:37and their captain Lydia Mizon, a university course administrator

0:01:37 > 0:01:40who recently appeared on the front page of her local newspaper

0:01:40 > 0:01:41holding a meerkat.

0:01:41 > 0:01:45United by a love of locked rooms, they are the Escapologists.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47So, you're the other lucky losers.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50You lost to the Eco-warriors but have made it back in.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52What have you been doing since we met last?

0:01:52 > 0:01:54Well, the first time we did a lot of revision,

0:01:54 > 0:01:57which then proved no help at all,

0:01:57 > 0:02:00so this time we have been very assiduously not revising.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03Excellent. Let's see how you fare.

0:02:03 > 0:02:04Cricketers, you won the toss

0:02:04 > 0:02:06but you have elected to put your opponents in first,

0:02:06 > 0:02:08so, Escapologists, choose a hieroglyph.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Twisted Flax, please.

0:02:10 > 0:02:11The Twisted Flax.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14What is the connection between these apparently random clues?

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Here's the first.

0:02:16 > 0:02:17Robin Masters... Do you know who that is?

0:02:17 > 0:02:19HE WHISPERS

0:02:19 > 0:02:20OK, next.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26Magellan was...

0:02:26 > 0:02:30- Laura?- I don't know... - She was Jonathan Creek's partner.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32Oh, Madeline Magellan, yes, she was.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34Do you think they're all Jonathan Creek?

0:02:34 > 0:02:36- Shall we get the next one? - I don't know.- Go for it.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Next one, please.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Do you know who that is?

0:02:40 > 0:02:42I don't know who that is.

0:02:42 > 0:02:43Shall we go?

0:02:45 > 0:02:50Are they sidekicks of Jonathan Creek?

0:02:50 > 0:02:52They are not all sidekicks of Jonathan Creek

0:02:52 > 0:02:54so I am going to show the fourth clue to the Cricketers

0:02:54 > 0:02:55for a possible bonus point.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58- Murder She Wrote.- Murder She Wrote.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04- Fictional.- Fictional authors.

0:03:04 > 0:03:05They are all fictional authors, that's right.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07Can you tell me anything else they have in common?

0:03:07 > 0:03:11I just recognise Robin Masters from being Magnum PI,

0:03:11 > 0:03:15and I believe he was, Magnum was Robin Masters.

0:03:15 > 0:03:19Oh, no, Robin Masters is the mysterious author

0:03:19 > 0:03:20who owns the estate.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23- Oh! Your theory is that Magnum is also him?- Is also him, yes.

0:03:23 > 0:03:26- Yeah.- Is that just you or is it in the show that it might be?

0:03:26 > 0:03:28No, I think that's just me

0:03:28 > 0:03:30and, yeah, the internet conspiracy theorists.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32Ah, I've never heard that theory.

0:03:32 > 0:03:36And Maddy Magellan you recognised, that is the one from Jonathan Creek.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38- Jessica Fletcher you must know.- Yes.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40- Murder She Wrote.- Murder She Wrote.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43Temperance Brennan is the forensic anthropologist

0:03:43 > 0:03:46and bestselling crime novelist in Bones.

0:03:46 > 0:03:47They are all fictional authors,

0:03:47 > 0:03:50and in fact they all appear in crime series.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52So, well done, you get the bonus point and you may choose a question.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54- Lion, please.- Lion, OK.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57What is the connection between these picture clues?

0:03:57 > 0:03:58Here's the first.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03Next, please.

0:04:03 > 0:04:04Gazelle?

0:04:04 > 0:04:07THEY WHISPER

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Next, please.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17- Blood...- Blood.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22- Death mask...- Triple blood. Is that Harry Potter?

0:04:22 > 0:04:23Nothing like that, is it?

0:04:25 > 0:04:27Next, please.

0:04:27 > 0:04:28Fox...

0:04:29 > 0:04:33Fox, mask, gazelle...

0:04:34 > 0:04:36Three seconds.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40- Any idea?- No, no idea whatsoever.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42- Do you want to have a guess? - No, nothing.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Found in streets.

0:04:44 > 0:04:45I don't know!

0:04:45 > 0:04:48Well, I suppose in theory they are all found in streets,

0:04:48 > 0:04:51but I don't think I can really accept that as an answer.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53- A deer shouldn't probably be in the street.- No.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55Escapologists, do you want to have a go for a bonus?

0:04:55 > 0:04:57What do we think?

0:04:57 > 0:04:58They all start with red?

0:04:59 > 0:05:02- What do you think you can see? - Red fox...

0:05:02 > 0:05:05- Oh, I see, and red blood.- Yeah.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07And the well-known red pharaoh, of course.

0:05:07 > 0:05:08We didn't have any idea, to be honest.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10Do you know who that is in the first picture?

0:05:10 > 0:05:12- Tutankhamen.- It is.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15As in pharaoh, as in Pharaoh Hound.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18Deerhound, bloodhound, foxhound.

0:05:18 > 0:05:22All types of hound, that's what that is.

0:05:22 > 0:05:23So, Escapologists,

0:05:23 > 0:05:25you don't get the bonus for that but you may choose a question.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27- Water, please.- Water.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29OK, what is the connection between these clues?

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Here's the first.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Next.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39THEY WHISPER

0:05:39 > 0:05:41Are they translations of something?

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Seems like translations of something, but I don't know what.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46- Holding your... Like an inventory, maybe.- Yeah.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49- Ventriloquism is talking... - Next? Next.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54That should have fire in it.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57- Baptism should be 'baptism of fire'. - Oh, yeah.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59- It's hold fire.- But why drill?

0:05:59 > 0:06:00Why drill and belly?

0:06:01 > 0:06:05These are the beginning of and end of phrases

0:06:05 > 0:06:06that have got 'fire' in them.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09So baptism of fire, firearms.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12- Firearms, firearms. - St Elmo's Fire...- And fire drill.

0:06:12 > 0:06:13That's exactly what it is.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15It's pairs of phrases involving the word fire

0:06:15 > 0:06:17but we've taken the word fire out.

0:06:17 > 0:06:18So, hold fire, fire in the belly.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20Baptism of fire, firearms.

0:06:20 > 0:06:21St Elmo's Fire, fire drill.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25And you didn't need to see like a house on fire, fire sale.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Fire has been removed from these pairs of phrases.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29Well calculated.

0:06:29 > 0:06:30Cricketers, what would you like?

0:06:30 > 0:06:33- Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds.

0:06:33 > 0:06:34What is the connection between these clues?

0:06:42 > 0:06:45THEY WHISPER

0:06:45 > 0:06:46Next, please.

0:06:54 > 0:06:55Next, please.

0:06:56 > 0:07:00- Bundestag...- It's parliament buildings from different places.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04- Possibly.- What do you reckon? - Parliament buildings?

0:07:04 > 0:07:07- Government buildings. - THEY WHISPER

0:07:07 > 0:07:10Government buildings in different countries.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12I need to hear something specific.

0:07:12 > 0:07:13- Parliament?- Parliament.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15I'm not hearing what I need to hear.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Escapologists, do you want to have a go for a bonus point?- Houses of...

0:07:18 > 0:07:19We think they might be the two houses of...

0:07:19 > 0:07:21- The two chambers. - Chambers of government.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24It is about two chambers of government.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26You see, your answer, they could be one house each.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28It's about bicameral parliaments

0:07:28 > 0:07:30and we are looking at the upper house and lower house.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Which did you recognise?

0:07:32 > 0:07:33The German one is...

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Yes, the Bundesrat is the upper house,

0:07:35 > 0:07:36the Bundestag the lower house.

0:07:36 > 0:07:37- The Irish one as well.- Yeah.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Seanad and Dail, the Irish ones,

0:07:39 > 0:07:41and the Afghanistan

0:07:41 > 0:07:44and India parliamentary houses I'm not going to try and pronounce

0:07:44 > 0:07:46but it's to do with upper and lower houses,

0:07:46 > 0:07:49and the layout of the clues was a little extra clue there.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51So, a bonus to you, Escapologists,

0:07:55 > 0:07:57It's the music question, yes,

0:07:57 > 0:07:59I would think an apology would be in order.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03What do they have in common? Here's the first.

0:08:50 > 0:08:51They are not all food.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54Cricketers, you've got the chance of a bonus point.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Places in America, it refers to.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Californian cities is what they are.

0:08:59 > 0:09:00What did we hear?

0:09:00 > 0:09:03Bran Van 3000, Drinking In LA.

0:09:07 > 0:09:08- Anything else?- Two others.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Certainly more obscure.

0:09:28 > 0:09:29and his opening words

0:09:29 > 0:09:32to a room full of really devoted Steinbeck fans,

0:09:32 > 0:09:35many of them military people, some academics,

0:09:35 > 0:09:37his opening words were, "Ladies and gentlemen,

0:09:37 > 0:09:39"I flatter myself that I am the only person in this room

0:09:39 > 0:09:42"who has not read The Grapes Of Wrath."

0:09:42 > 0:09:43It didn't go down well.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46And he really hadn't.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48Still, we got a free trip to San Jose.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50So, well done, Cricketers, you get a bonus

0:09:50 > 0:09:52and the last question of the round, the Horned Viper.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54What is the connection between these clues?

0:10:38 > 0:10:42Are they all to do...?

0:10:44 > 0:10:46Are they all special spin-off episodes?

0:10:46 > 0:10:49Yeah, special spin-off episodes of shows?

0:10:49 > 0:10:50No, they're not.

0:10:50 > 0:10:54Now, the Blackadder one, it's to do with where it was shown.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57This is a Blackadder episode you might not have seen.

0:10:57 > 0:11:01It's a specially commissioned one for the Millennium Dome,

0:11:01 > 0:11:03which also featured 14 zones,

0:11:03 > 0:11:06and the play area Timekeepers of the Millennium,

0:11:06 > 0:11:07and Our Town Story,

0:11:07 > 0:11:10that was a project where local education authorities

0:11:10 > 0:11:15were invited to put on a play about their hometown and its characters.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18Lydia, if you had to put on a play about your hometown

0:11:18 > 0:11:21and its characters, which character would you play?

0:11:21 > 0:11:25I would play my old music teacher, Mr Jones.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27I'd like to see that play.

0:11:27 > 0:11:28What instrument?

0:11:28 > 0:11:30I think he played piano very aggressively,

0:11:30 > 0:11:33so I would continue in his honour.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36That's the best way to play the piano, isn't it, really?

0:11:36 > 0:11:39All things that featured at the Millennium Dome.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42That means at the end of Round One the Cricketers have two points,

0:11:42 > 0:11:44the Escapologists have three.

0:11:47 > 0:11:48Round Two, the sequences round,

0:11:50 > 0:11:52if you play your old music teacher on stage and he doesn't like it.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Sequences.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Yeah, what are the numbers about?

0:12:21 > 0:12:23Oh, no, Jared was the second oldest...

0:12:23 > 0:12:26Next, please.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31Are these to do with syllables, maybe?

0:12:31 > 0:12:34- Why are they halving each time? - Maybe it's to do with syllables.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Oh, no, they're... It's champagne bottles.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40- Oh.- No, it will be 2...maybe Magnum?

0:12:40 > 0:12:42So, ice lolly, ice cream.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Chocolate coated ice cream.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47- Two, chocolate coated ice cream. - 2: Chocolate coated ice cream.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49I will accept that answer.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52We had 2: Latin for great.

0:12:52 > 0:12:53What do we both mean?

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Champagne bottles.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57It's champagne bottle sizes,

0:12:57 > 0:12:59so what are the other clues?

0:12:59 > 0:13:00Frank.

0:13:00 > 0:13:06OK, so, the eight is a Methuselah, I believe, isn't it?

0:13:06 > 0:13:08That's right, Methuselah, eight bottles.

0:13:08 > 0:13:09Is the 16 a Balthazar?

0:13:09 > 0:13:11It is, 16 bottles in a Balthazar, and four...?

0:13:11 > 0:13:14Four is Nebuchadnezzar or something?

0:13:14 > 0:13:15It's not, it's Jeroboam.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17And I want to hear Magnum,

0:13:17 > 0:13:18so it could be an ice cream,

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Latin for great

0:13:20 > 0:13:22or, of course, Magnum PI.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25Could be Robin Masters, we don't know.

0:13:25 > 0:13:26Very well done.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Cricketers, what would you like?

0:13:28 > 0:13:30- Lion, please.- Lion.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32OK, what will come fourth in this sequence?

0:13:32 > 0:13:33Here's the first.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38Next, please.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47Is this...

0:13:47 > 0:13:49..where US presidents have been assassinated?

0:13:49 > 0:13:51- Yeah.- OK...

0:13:51 > 0:13:53Next, please.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56So, Elm Street in Dallas...

0:13:56 > 0:13:58A street in Dallas? In a car?

0:13:59 > 0:14:01- In a car in Dallas.- Yeah.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03In a car in Dallas.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06I'll accept that answer. I mean, if you look at the other clues,

0:14:06 > 0:14:09I'd like to hear something that slightly resembles them more.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10Do we think...?

0:14:10 > 0:14:14Well, we've got plaza, because it's more general locations.

0:14:14 > 0:14:15But I know you have solved the riddle,

0:14:15 > 0:14:18if you say in a car in Dallas. What's going on?

0:14:18 > 0:14:21It's successive assassinations of US presidents,

0:14:21 > 0:14:23the last one being Kennedy.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25That's right. And what are the other assassinations?

0:14:25 > 0:14:28Well, the first one would be Lincoln.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30Yes, John Wilkes Booth shot Abraham Lincoln.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33I can't remember the other two.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36Andrew Garfield was shot in a railway station.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38He didn't die immediately, he died sometime later.

0:14:38 > 0:14:42And the concert hall, that is William McKinley.

0:14:42 > 0:14:44Successive assassinations.

0:14:44 > 0:14:48The boarding house where John Wilkes Booth plotted to kill Lincoln

0:14:48 > 0:14:52has now changed into a Chinese restaurant and karaoke bar.

0:14:52 > 0:14:53What do you think it's called?

0:14:53 > 0:14:55Lincoln's?

0:14:55 > 0:14:57No, the Chinese restaurant and karaoke bar

0:14:57 > 0:14:59is called Wok And Roll!

0:14:59 > 0:15:01Wok And Roll, of course.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03That's cheery, isn't it, for the descendants of Abraham Lincoln.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06So, well done. Escapologists, your turn.

0:15:06 > 0:15:07- Eye of Horus, please. - Eye of Horus.

0:15:07 > 0:15:10OK, what will come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14OK, next.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Street, ST...

0:15:19 > 0:15:20Oh, of course.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23So it's ST, then ND, then three RD, then four TH.

0:15:23 > 0:15:27So it'll be something that has the TH and four.

0:15:27 > 0:15:28Tower Hill?

0:15:28 > 0:15:30OK.

0:15:30 > 0:15:35Four, Tower Hill, assuming that it can be abbreviated to TH.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37Very well spotted after two clues, well done.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39What's happening here?

0:15:39 > 0:15:42It's first, so first is one and then S-T.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45Second is written two and then N-D.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48Three... Third is written three, R-D. And then...

0:15:48 > 0:15:51That's it, they're known as ordinal indicators.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55It's one S-T, first, North Dakota indicating N-D for second,

0:15:55 > 0:15:58and we wanted to hear something that would be T-H for fourth.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01We had Thursday, but Tower Hill, if it was being abbreviated,

0:16:01 > 0:16:04I suppose that works. So well done. Good spot.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07- Cricketers, what would you like? - Twisted Flax, please.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10The Twisted Flax, OK. What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:16:10 > 0:16:11Here's the first.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16That's Chaucer.

0:16:16 > 0:16:21THEY CONFER

0:16:21 > 0:16:23Next, please.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30- Six wives...- OK.

0:16:30 > 0:16:37THEY CONFER

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Next, please.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Is it Zsa Zsa Gabor with eight?

0:16:41 > 0:16:44Who's been married eight times? Zsa Zsa Gabor...?

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Maybe...

0:16:46 > 0:16:48Who's been married eight times?

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Two seconds.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Eight times, is it Zsa Zsa Gabor?

0:16:52 > 0:16:54Elizabeth Taylor.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Elizabeth Taylor?

0:16:56 > 0:16:58Is an acceptable answer.

0:16:58 > 0:16:59Zsa Zsa Gabor is not.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Tell me about the sequence.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04It's number of marriages, we believe, going up.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07So we think Elizabeth Taylor's got eight.

0:17:07 > 0:17:11That's right. The Wife of Bath in the Chaucer, five marriages.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14Henry VIII, six wives, of course. Jerry Lee Lewis, seven marriages.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17We need someone who'd been married eight times, Elizabeth Taylor.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20- Zsa Zsa Gabor would come after this sequence, with nine.- Oh.

0:17:20 > 0:17:21A wonderful housekeeper.

0:17:21 > 0:17:24Whenever she got divorced, she always kept the house.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26Well spotted. Escapologists, what would you like?

0:17:26 > 0:17:29- Water, please.- Water, and what would be the fourth in the sequence?

0:17:29 > 0:17:30Here's the first.

0:17:33 > 0:17:34Next.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Gower Street...

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Rada?

0:17:40 > 0:17:41Next.

0:17:41 > 0:17:46THEY CONFER

0:17:47 > 0:17:49Is it Rada, radar...?

0:17:49 > 0:17:51Maybe.

0:17:53 > 0:17:54Raid?

0:17:54 > 0:17:57- It might be just Ra.- Yeah.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59Egyptian sun god?

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Shall I guess?

0:18:01 > 0:18:02The Egyptian sun god?

0:18:02 > 0:18:06Or the symbol for radium. We will accept that answer, and why?

0:18:06 > 0:18:11It is something, Rada, rad and Ra.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13- What do you think...? - So it's going down.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15- That's right, it's words getting shorter.- Radar?

0:18:15 > 0:18:18- Radar, he's in M*A*S*H, have you ever seen M*A*S*H?- No.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21Cpl Walter Eugene "Radar" O'Reilly from M*A*S*H,

0:18:21 > 0:18:24and you take off the last letter, you get Rada, the drama school.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27Take off the last letter, rad, for that symbol,

0:18:27 > 0:18:31and radium, or a sun god, for Ra. Well done.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Back to you, Cricketers, for the last question.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36It's the Viper again, that's been left till last.

0:18:36 > 0:18:37These are going to be picture clues.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40What would you expect to see in the last picture?

0:18:40 > 0:18:41Here's the first.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47That's, uh, Butch...Butch Dingle.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49Next, please.

0:18:51 > 0:18:52David Cassidy...

0:18:52 > 0:18:54Yeah, David Cassidy.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57Butch Cassidy. Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00- Shall we go for it?- Yeah.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02Picture of a baby goat.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05Is exactly what we've got ourselves.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Very well done, and what's this?

0:19:07 > 0:19:12We think it's Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14That's exactly right.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16I think the key is you recognised Butch Dingle.

0:19:16 > 0:19:17Who's the Emmerdale fan?

0:19:17 > 0:19:19Simon. I had no idea.

0:19:19 > 0:19:20It paid off, suddenly.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23All those years of watching Emmerdale paid off.

0:19:23 > 0:19:24Yes, Butch, then David Cassidy,

0:19:24 > 0:19:27and do you know what's happening in this third clue?

0:19:27 > 0:19:28Sundance Film Festival.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30- That's right.- Robert Redford's, is it?

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Robert Redford has a film foundation and they have a festival.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35And, actually, the town, the area in Utah where it is,

0:19:35 > 0:19:37is now called Sundance.

0:19:37 > 0:19:41So Butch Cassidy, Sundance, we want to hear kid. Well done.

0:19:41 > 0:19:42That means, at the end of round two,

0:19:42 > 0:19:44the Cricketers have nine points,

0:19:44 > 0:19:46the Escapologists have ten.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51Time now for the Connecting Wall, the 16 jumbled clues

0:19:51 > 0:19:54that need sorting into four connected groups of four.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57You'll remember this with a shiver of horror from your last game.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59You'll be going first this time, Cricketers.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01Would you like Lion or Water?

0:20:01 > 0:20:03- Lion, please.- The Lion Wall.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06You have two and a half minutes to solve it, starting now.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11Coronation Street...

0:20:11 > 0:20:14Sesame Street, Pigeon Street...

0:20:15 > 0:20:18- TV chefs.- What are...? - Rhodes, Ramsay...

0:20:18 > 0:20:21OK. What are the streets, Jump Street...?

0:20:21 > 0:20:23Which one...?

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Pigeon Street.

0:20:25 > 0:20:26OK...

0:20:28 > 0:20:30Drop sesame...

0:20:33 > 0:20:37- OK. So, Roux, Kitchin... - Rhodes.- Rhodes.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39And...

0:20:40 > 0:20:42Scofflaw?

0:20:42 > 0:20:44No. What else is there?

0:20:48 > 0:20:49So...

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Three lives now.

0:20:51 > 0:20:56- Scofflaw, crook, felon, they're all...- And malefactor, maybe.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58- They're all old words for criminal. - Yeah.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01OK, so what's that, then? Sunflower...

0:21:01 > 0:21:03- Seeds?- Sesame seeds, palm...

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Oil, they're oil. Sunflower oil, palm oil, sesame oil...

0:21:06 > 0:21:08- And argan oil?- Yeah.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11- Do we want to go with it? - Yeah, go with it.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14That's it, you solved the wall. Very well done.

0:21:14 > 0:21:18Let's have a look. Jump, Pigeon, Coronation, Ramsay.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20They're all streets.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22Jump Street, Pigeon Street, Coronation Street, Ramsay Street.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24That's exactly right.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27And the green group, Outlaw, Roux, Rhodes, Kitchin?

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Celebrity chefs, we believe.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32They are chefs. There's something else about them, do you know it?

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Own restaurants? Michelin star?

0:21:34 > 0:21:36They've all won a Michelin star, that's exactly right, yes.

0:21:36 > 0:21:40Tom Kitchin is the youngest Michelin-starred chef in Scotland.

0:21:40 > 0:21:44Gary Rhodes, of course, the Roux brothers and Nathan Outlaw,

0:21:44 > 0:21:47- we're talking about, in that first clue.- I pressed him by mistake.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49Really?

0:21:49 > 0:21:53And what about the next group? Crook, felon, scofflaw, malefactor.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55They are old words for criminal.

0:21:55 > 0:21:58That's right. Just means criminal, absolutely right.

0:21:58 > 0:22:02And the turquoise group, sesame, palm, sunflower, argan.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04I believe they're oil. Sesame oil, sunflower oil.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06There is something else I want to hear.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08Are they cooking oils?

0:22:08 > 0:22:10Yeah, cooking oils. They're edible oils. That's the thing.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12Not oils that you'd put in a car.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14Or maybe you would put them in a car and the car would run,

0:22:14 > 0:22:15but edible oils is what they are.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17So, four points for the groups,

0:22:17 > 0:22:19four more for the connections, and you get the bonus,

0:22:19 > 0:22:21maximum of ten. Very well done.

0:22:21 > 0:22:24Let's bring in the Escapologists now and give them the other wall,

0:22:24 > 0:22:26the Water Wall, and see what they can do about solving it.

0:22:26 > 0:22:29You've got two and a half minutes to solve the Water Wall,

0:22:29 > 0:22:31starting now.

0:22:32 > 0:22:36- OK. So there's... Walter... - Gropius is an architect...

0:22:36 > 0:22:38Walters... Walter Gropius?

0:22:38 > 0:22:40Yes, Walter Gropius.

0:22:48 > 0:22:51OK. Poseidon, he was a God.

0:22:52 > 0:22:55- Gods of the sea...- Great Dane...

0:22:55 > 0:22:57Njord?

0:22:58 > 0:23:01- I don't know what Njord is. - Not Njord.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04- Spread like wildfire, but...- Yeah. - Have the unwashed masses?

0:23:04 > 0:23:07- But I don't know what...- OK.

0:23:07 > 0:23:08..what else could be unwashed.

0:23:10 > 0:23:13- Triton is a god of the sea, did you...?- Yeah, we got...

0:23:13 > 0:23:16- We've got Triton and Poseidon.- Yeah.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20Oh, OK.

0:23:20 > 0:23:21- Three lives now.- OK.- Plenty of time.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23What have we got left? So we've got...

0:23:23 > 0:23:27Could it be great Sultan, great...is it great unwashed?

0:23:27 > 0:23:28Yes, there's the great unwashed.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30- OK. So we've got Great Dane... - Great unwashed...

0:23:30 > 0:23:33- Great... Is there a Great Seal, maybe?- A Great Wildfire, possibly.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35- Great.- There's always a Great Year.

0:23:35 > 0:23:40- Is that not enough of a phrase? - What about Raleigh and...?

0:23:40 > 0:23:41SHE PUFFS

0:23:41 > 0:23:44- Sultan, Neptune...- Right, I mean, Raleigh is a make of bicycle.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47- Are there any other makes of bicycles?- Don't know.- OK.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50- So we've got Great Dane, Great Unwashed.- Sultan ends in "tan".

0:23:50 > 0:23:54- Great Sultan?- There's nothing else that ends in mathematical functions.

0:23:54 > 0:23:55OK.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57Shall we have a go at Seal and Wildfire?

0:23:57 > 0:23:59You can have a go if you want.

0:23:59 > 0:24:00- BUZZ - OK, so it's not that.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02Year ends in "ear".

0:24:02 > 0:24:05- I don't know. I'm trying to think of wordy ones.- Yes.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08OK, well, we've got Great Dane and Great Unwashed. Great...

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Raleigh? Great Year.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12Did we have Sultan on that one?

0:24:12 > 0:24:14Great Sultan? No, we did Seal and Wildfire.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17Shall we try...Wildfire?

0:24:19 > 0:24:21- Yes?- Yeah.

0:24:21 > 0:24:22- BUZZ - OK, it's not that.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24So one go left, I think.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27- One go, and 20 seconds. - So we've got some time, so...

0:24:29 > 0:24:31We've got Great Dane, Great Unwashed.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40- Ten seconds.- OK.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47BUZZ Nope, that was your last life.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49But you found two groups, and what about the connections?

0:24:49 > 0:24:51Swinburn, Gropius...

0:24:51 > 0:24:54I won't pronounce anything for fear of extra clues.

0:24:54 > 0:24:55Famous Walters.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58They are all Walters. Who are those Walters?

0:24:58 > 0:24:59Walter Swinburn.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01- Walter Swinburn was a jockey.- Yep.

0:25:01 > 0:25:02Gropius?

0:25:02 > 0:25:04The founder of the Bauhaus.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14Are they sea gods?

0:25:14 > 0:25:16They are sea deities, that's right.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19In a selection of various mythologies -

0:25:19 > 0:25:20Norse, Greek and so on.

0:25:20 > 0:25:21They are sea gods.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24And you can still get points for the connections

0:25:24 > 0:25:26in the groups you didn't find. So let's resolve the Wall.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57and three for the connections. That's a total of five.
