0:00:21 > 0:00:24Good evening, and apologies if you've tuned in hoping to see
0:00:24 > 0:00:27the exciting final moments of the European Masters golf,
0:00:27 > 0:00:29live from The Belfry.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31You can turn over to BBC Four,
0:00:31 > 0:00:33although it's not showing there either.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36Budget cuts mean the BBC can't really afford golf any more,
0:00:36 > 0:00:39and also, the European Masters golf isn't on at the moment.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41How could it be? I made it up.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44If you've tuned in expecting to see the exciting final moments of
0:00:44 > 0:00:47the European Masters golf live from The Belfry
0:00:47 > 0:00:50then I'm afraid you're living with a very slender grasp of
0:00:50 > 0:00:52what actually happens in the real world.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54So, stay and watch the show - you'll be in good company.
0:00:54 > 0:00:59Quizzing tonight on my right, Ian King, a fund manager who once
0:00:59 > 0:01:03told Bill Murray he looked just like Bill Murray.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Tim Harrison, a communications consultant who was
0:01:05 > 0:01:09photographed as a fashion model for the Observer magazine.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11And their captain, Tim Hall,
0:01:11 > 0:01:14a classics graduate who fell asleep in the throne room of
0:01:14 > 0:01:15the British Embassy in Paris
0:01:15 > 0:01:18and was politely ejected the following morning.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21United by a soft spot for sleuths, they are the Detectives.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24On the Only Connect road, you beat the Theatricals
0:01:24 > 0:01:26and the Arrowheads, that's how you've come to be here.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28What have you been up to since we saw you last?
0:01:28 > 0:01:31We had a thorough and comprehensive debrief and analysed our
0:01:31 > 0:01:34performance, by which I mean we went out to dinner and did a pub quiz.
0:01:34 > 0:01:35Lovely.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38Tonight you are facing, on my left,
0:01:38 > 0:01:39Frank Paul,

0:01:52 > 0:01:55And their captain, Lydia Mizon, an American studies graduate who
0:01:55 > 0:01:58enjoys listening to the shipping forecast.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01United by a love of locked rooms, they are the Escapologists.
0:02:01 > 0:02:02Now, you've had a slightly longer journey
0:02:02 > 0:02:05because you lost your opening heat to the Eco Warriors,
0:02:05 > 0:02:07but you came back in the lucky losers round
0:02:07 > 0:02:09and you beat the Cricketers and the Dandies.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11How competitive are you feeling tonight?
0:02:11 > 0:02:15- Increasingly, as the series goes on.- Excellent.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Well, you didn't win the toss, I'm afraid,
0:02:17 > 0:02:18that went to you, Detectives,
0:02:18 > 0:02:19so you'll be going first.

0:02:49 > 0:02:50Yeah, cos he played for Everton.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56It's footballers who've played for cross-town rivals.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Very well done. Who do you think we would have had in fourth place?
0:02:58 > 0:03:02- Denis Law.- Denis Law is what we had, for Manchester.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Yes, which teams did these players play for?

0:03:06 > 0:03:08Beardsley for Liverpool and Everton,
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Zlatan for AC Milan and Inter,
0:03:11 > 0:03:14and Alfie Conn presumably Rangers and Celtic.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17That's right, they all played for both of their city's leading teams.
0:03:17 > 0:03:21- Escapologists, what would you like? - Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23You're going to be seeing picture clues.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27The first one coming in now.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32- Tortillas, aren't they? - Tortillas? Or poppadums?
0:03:32 > 0:03:35- They might be poppadums, actually, the surroundings look Indian.- Next.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38That's Tori Spelling.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Is it? OK.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44Her autobiography's called Stori Telling, I think.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- That's great, that's a good fact. - They both start with TOR, I guess.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- OK. Shall we see the next one? - Yeah.- Yeah, go on.- Next.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56That's a string trio. OK.
0:03:56 > 0:04:01Does it mean something? Tortilla and...
0:04:01 > 0:04:02Next.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13- They're anagrams of each other. - They're anagrams of each other.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15You recognised Tori, trio and riot,
0:04:15 > 0:04:16so what do you think is in the first clue?
0:04:16 > 0:04:19- The first one is roti, I think. - Roti, Indian flatbread.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22- Good Tori Spelling knowledge, by the way.- Yeah.- Thank you.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24Is it you, Frank, you said her autobiography is Stori Telling?
0:04:24 > 0:04:26I think it's called Stori Telling.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28It's certainly some pun on her name, I think it's Stori Telling.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31- You haven't read it? - No, I have not.- I'd really like to.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33I definitely will be reading it now.

0:05:26 > 0:05:28Two seconds.
0:05:28 > 0:05:29Are they about prisons?
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Is it to do with prisons?
0:05:31 > 0:05:33It's to do with prisons, that's absolutely right.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36You knew that, Tim - what songs did you recognise?
0:05:36 > 0:05:39- Folsom Prison Blues... - Mm-hmm.- ..and that was it.- Really?
0:05:39 > 0:05:40The Green, Green Grass Of Home.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42The Green, Green Grass Of Home, that's right.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44It's a man coming back from prison.
0:05:44 > 0:05:45Well, he isn't really. He's in prison.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49These songs are all sung, in theory, by prisoners who are still
0:05:49 > 0:05:53in prison, so he's dreaming about going home, seeing his sweetheart.
0:05:53 > 0:05:54- Did you recognise any of the others? - No.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57The third one sounded like it might have been from a musical.
0:05:57 > 0:05:58Yes, from Les Miserables, Look Down,
0:05:58 > 0:06:00it's sung by prisoners at the start of that.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03- And the Prisoners' Chorus, that's from Fidelio.- All right.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Names and faces.
0:06:19 > 0:06:20To do with memory? Or...
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Yeah, I mean, there are sort of conditions where you can't
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- remember, but I don't know...- Next.
0:06:27 > 0:06:28Abstract images.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32Random lists of words, names and faces, abstract images.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35They're not tests, cos abstract images,
0:06:35 > 0:06:37you've to use them to test...
0:06:37 > 0:06:40- Shall we do next? - Yeah, I think so.- Next.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48You have to pick one out from... I don't know why.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Two seconds.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Are they...
0:06:55 > 0:06:58..tests where you have to pick one? That's really bad.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00They are not tests where you have to pick one.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02There's a bonus chance for you, Detectives.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04We're thinking, are they things that people
0:07:04 > 0:07:06have to do in the World Memory Championships?
0:07:06 > 0:07:08That's exactly what it is. And you were very close
0:07:08 > 0:07:10because you said there are conditions where people can't
0:07:10 > 0:07:11remember things - there are also
0:07:11 > 0:07:13conditions where people can remember
0:07:13 > 0:07:15things, and great memory people
0:07:15 > 0:07:16in the World Memory Championships,
0:07:16 > 0:07:18they demonstrate these things.
0:07:18 > 0:07:19I mean, names and faces,
0:07:19 > 0:07:21God help us, I can do about three.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47That's Mexican music, so it's...
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Are they things that are not from
0:07:51 > 0:07:54the country which they're supposed to...?
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Shall me get one more?

0:08:10 > 0:08:12from which they didn't originate.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Very nice idea. Completely wrong.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17A bonus chance for you, Escapologists.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20- We think they are trilogies. - They are trilogies.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- What did you recognise? - The Edgar Wright Cornetto trilogy.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Each of their three films - Shaun Of The Dead, Hot Fuzz
0:08:26 > 0:08:30and The World's End - has a moment where a character buys a Cornetto.
0:08:30 > 0:08:31Red Curtain, do you know what that is?
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- It's Baz Luhrmann, isn't it? - That's right.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37Mariachi, that's Robert Rodriguez, and his style of film-making,
0:08:37 > 0:08:38he said the essence of it
0:08:38 > 0:08:40is that creativity, not money,
0:08:40 > 0:08:42is used to address the problem.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43Very much like the BBC in that respect.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45And Three Colours, you don't know that one?
0:08:45 > 0:08:48That's red, white and blue, the French-Polish...

0:08:51 > 0:08:55of the French flag, is what that trilogy title is all about.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02What is the connection between these clues? Here's the first.

0:09:09 > 0:09:13Duke of Grafton was Prime Minister, but I don't know who Villiers was.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16Yeah, they might be their mothers or something, maybe.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17I mean, that's too easy. Next.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21OK!
0:09:22 > 0:09:24The Duke of Monmouth was a Prime Minister, wasn't he?
0:09:24 > 0:09:28- Maybe.- Shall we get the last one? - Yeah, I think we probably...

0:09:49 > 0:09:51children of the ones at the top?
0:09:51 > 0:09:53I need to hear one more thing.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Their fathers were monarchs?
0:09:55 > 0:09:58Kings? Royals? Royals! Royals!
0:09:58 > 0:10:00I'm going to give it to you, for goodness' sake.

0:10:03 > 0:10:07- Specifically, the king... - Charles II.- Charles II, yes.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10These people are the illegitimate children of kings, or rather
0:10:10 > 0:10:12specifically one king, Charles II,
0:10:12 > 0:10:15and their mother is the mistress at the top.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Nell Gwynne, you surely know, is the mistress of Charles II.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Yeah, that's how we got the mistress bit. That's the only thing we knew.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Yes, she was a great rival of Louise de Kerouaille,
0:10:23 > 0:10:26but Louise de Kerouaille was Catholic and there's a story that
0:10:26 > 0:10:29when an angry mob were hurling things at her carriage, Nell Gwynne
0:10:29 > 0:10:33shouted out of the window, "Good people, I'm the PROTESTANT whore."

0:10:37 > 0:10:39specifically King Charles II.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41That means, at the end of Round 1,
0:10:41 > 0:10:44the Escapologists have three points, the Detectives have four.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Sequences now, one thing following another,

0:11:56 > 0:11:58- Thunderbird order. - Oh, in Thunderbird order.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00It is those pilots. I don't know if it's age order.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52- I have seen Hernandez as one of the most common.- Yeah, go for it.
0:12:52 > 0:12:53Why not? I don't know.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57- Hernandez.- No, it isn't.- Oh, sorry.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59- Would you like to have a go for a bonus?- Is it Garcia?- Yes, it is.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02I'm slightly disappointed, cos what I hoped to do was go backwards
0:13:02 > 0:13:06and forwards, shouting Spanish names until somebody got the right one.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08You knew the sequence, which is he four most common

0:13:14 > 0:13:17- Can we have Twisted Flax, please? - Yes, you can.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20What will come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23THEY CONFER
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Next, please.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42THEY CONFER
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Next, please.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55THEY CONFER
0:13:57 > 0:13:58Two seconds.
0:14:00 > 0:14:01One, Stansted.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04- And why would that be? - Because it's an airport.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Well, I will accept one, Stansted
0:14:07 > 0:14:10because it's an acceptable answer, though you haven't got the sequence.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12- I'd have preferred one, Cardiff. - Obviously.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14But Stansted is an acceptable answer. Do you know why?
0:14:14 > 0:14:17We think it might be the number of runways.
0:14:17 > 0:14:18- It's not.- Oh.
0:14:18 > 0:14:19It's the number of terminals.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23Now, this is very mean because you may have flown from Terminal 5 -
0:14:23 > 0:14:27that's one of four terminals. Terminal 1 closed in 2015.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Now they have only two, three, four, five,
0:14:29 > 0:14:32so there are four terminals at Heathrow, three at Manchester,
0:14:32 > 0:14:34two at Gatwick, and I wanted to hear somewhere that has
0:14:34 > 0:14:36one terminal - lovely Cardiff - but you wouldn't know that
0:14:36 > 0:14:38because why would anyone want to leave Cardiff?
0:14:38 > 0:14:40Why would you go to the airport, even?
0:14:40 > 0:14:42You'd simply stay for as long as you could.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44But you get the point.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47- Escapologists, what would you like? - Lion, please.- Lion.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49What would come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52OK!
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Next.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Oh, the year.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03- Oh, yeah.- "Sex began in 1963", or something,
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- "which was very late for me", from the poem.- OK.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08- Isn't it?- It may well be.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11- So was it '64, the marriage of Burton and Taylor?- Oh, I don't know.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14- Shall we see next? - So it would be '66.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Shall we do that?
0:15:16 > 0:15:17Yeah, go for it.
0:15:19 > 0:15:20England winning the World Cup.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23Is an acceptable answer.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26We went with Harold Wilson winning a general election. And why is that?
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Something happening in '63, '64, '65, '66 -
0:15:29 > 0:15:33the poem "sex began in '63 (which was really very late for me)"
0:15:33 > 0:15:34- or something.- That's right, Larkin.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37"Sexual intercourse began in 1963 (which was rather late for me)
0:15:37 > 0:15:39"Between the end of the Chatterley ban
0:15:39 > 0:15:40"And the Beatles' first LP."
0:15:40 > 0:15:43And the first marriage of Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, '64,
0:15:43 > 0:15:45then we're going '65,
0:15:45 > 0:15:47and something that happened in 1966,
0:15:47 > 0:15:50Harold Wilson wins a snap election, or England winning the football.
0:15:50 > 0:15:51Well done.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54- Back to you, Detectives, what would you like?- Horned Viper, please.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57The Horned Viper. What will come fourth in this sequence?
0:15:57 > 0:15:58Here's the first.
0:16:03 > 0:16:04Next.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14Next.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21THEY CONFER
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Two seconds.
0:16:37 > 0:16:3941 = 17.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42I'm afraid that's not a sequence.
0:16:42 > 0:16:46- Escapologists, do you want to have a go?- Nominate Tom.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49It's 41 = 1.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52- No, it's not.- No, it's 41 = 4. - Yes, it is that,
0:16:52 > 0:16:55but unfortunately the first answer you gave was 41 = 1.
0:16:55 > 0:16:56What is the sequence?
0:16:56 > 0:17:01It's the first number to the power of the next number equals
0:17:01 > 0:17:04the answer, which I should have got because I'm a maths teacher
0:17:04 > 0:17:06and I didn't get it.
0:17:06 > 0:17:07That's absolutely right.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10It's not about the whole number, it's about the two numbers.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13So you'll see the first number in each case, it goes 1, 2, 3,
0:17:13 > 0:17:15the second number goes 4, 3, 2,
0:17:15 > 0:17:18so you want 4 and 1, and then it's powers.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20We've left off the power symbol and the superscript,
0:17:20 > 0:17:23so 1 to the power of 4 is 1, 2 to the power of 3 is 8,
0:17:23 > 0:17:263 to the power of 2 is 9 - we want to hear 4 to the power of 1 is 4.
0:17:28 > 0:17:29Now, were you thinking...?
0:17:29 > 0:17:33I'm sure your students would want me to grill you on this.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35Were you thinking 4 to the power of 1 is 1?
0:17:35 > 0:17:39- Or were you doing a different calculation?- No, I was thinking...
0:17:39 > 0:17:40I was thinking, "Is it 1 or is it 4?"
0:17:40 > 0:17:43I can't remember, I always forget that one.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45And what is the age of your pupils?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47They're all GCSE age.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Oh, that's fine, they can do it by themselves.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51By then they don't even need advice.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53You may have the last question of the round, the Eye of Horus.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56What would come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00Next.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06Federal Executive Board. Is this to do with abbreviations, acronyms?
0:18:06 > 0:18:08THEY CONFER
0:18:11 > 0:18:12Next.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14Memory Address Register?
0:18:18 > 0:18:20They're not, cos... No, no, they're...
0:18:20 > 0:18:22I was thinking RAM is read-only memory,
0:18:22 > 0:18:24but that's nothing to do with it.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29- Oh, it's JAN, FEB, MAR... - It could be FedEx, but no, that's...
0:18:29 > 0:18:32- I know what it is. - OK. Oh, yes, of course.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Automatic Plate Recognition.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Well, everybody is very familiar with that phrase.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41I mean, a slightly more common one is Annual Percentage Rate.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44- That one, yes.- And why is this? What's the sequence?
0:18:44 > 0:18:48They are acronyms that spell out the months, so Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr.
0:18:48 > 0:18:49That's exactly it, you can
0:18:49 > 0:18:52abbreviate Joint Army-Navy to Jan,
0:18:52 > 0:18:54and if you look downwards on the other clues, Feb, Mar,
0:18:54 > 0:18:56and we want something that will go Apr for April.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57Well done.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59That means, at the end of Round 2,
0:18:59 > 0:19:00the Detectives have seven points,
0:19:00 > 0:19:02the Escapologists have nine.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07Onwards to the Connecting Wall, and, Escapologists,
0:19:07 > 0:19:11you'll be the first to try scaling it. Would you like Lion or Water?
0:19:11 > 0:19:12- Water, please.- The Water Wall.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16You have two and a half minutes to solve it, starting now.
0:19:17 > 0:19:18OK, so it's P Diddy.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20- Kip Thorne is a physicist, but... - OK.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25- OK, so chicken... - If it's Parky, it's cold.- Oh, yeah.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27- Biting is cold.- Yeah.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31- OK, what else is chicken? - BUZZER
0:19:32 > 0:19:33BUZZER
0:19:35 > 0:19:36BUZZER
0:19:38 > 0:19:40BUZZER
0:19:40 > 0:19:41BUZZER
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- You can have also skip, sparky. - Yeah.
0:19:48 > 0:19:49What else is cold?
0:19:51 > 0:19:52BUZZER
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Try chicken again.
0:19:56 > 0:19:57What else have we got?
0:19:57 > 0:19:58There could be.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Gambo, Frango, I don't know.
0:20:03 > 0:20:04BUZZER
0:20:05 > 0:20:07Seems a bit chickeny.
0:20:07 > 0:20:08- It does, doesn't it? - BUZZER
0:20:08 > 0:20:10OK, so we've got...
0:20:13 > 0:20:16OK. Oh, yeah, Diddy, Grimmy...
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Oh, that's no good at all. Parky...
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Yeah, the one ending in O, Gambaccini.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Gambaccini, yeah, maybe.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28- He's a DJ, isn't he?- Parky.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31- He's not really, is he? - No, not really.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33OK, we need to get some thoughts.
0:20:36 > 0:20:37Oh, no.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Maybe Kip is a DJ, I don't know.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41OK, let's move on from DJs.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43So we've got words for cold.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45Frango...
0:20:45 > 0:20:46- What is that?- I've no idea.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51OK, don't panic. What about Dinner?
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Dinner plate, chicken Dinner.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55Dinner guest.
0:20:55 > 0:20:5630 seconds.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59Chris Huhne, but it's not spelt like that.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- Have we got Apollo?- Apollo, yeah.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09It could be gods with one letter taken off but...
0:21:15 > 0:21:17Ten seconds.
0:21:17 > 0:21:18BUZZER
0:21:18 > 0:21:22- Balso Snell in the Nathaniel West novel.- OK.- But I don't know...
0:21:22 > 0:21:23BUZZER
0:21:24 > 0:21:27- That's it, the time's up.- Oh, no! - What a horrible wall.
0:21:27 > 0:21:32The difficulty does go up at the quarterfinals. A nasty thing indeed.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Let's have a look at how it should have been.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37There we go. Can you give me points for the connections?
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Huhn, Kip, Poulet, Frango.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43- Chicken.- That is chicken, yes.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Kip is chicken in Dutch, Huhn in German,
0:21:45 > 0:21:49Frango is apparently chicken in Portuguese.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Green - Grimmy, Copping, Dinner, Pollo.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55You can remove one of the double letters to make a new word.
0:21:55 > 0:21:59Yes, you can - grimy, coping, diner, polo.
0:21:59 > 0:22:00Well spotted at this point.
0:22:00 > 0:22:05And the next group - Deadly, Parky, Diddy, Gambo.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07- Are they...? - They're all nicknames for DJs.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10They are, nicknames for BBC radio presenters.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Alan Dedicoat - Deadly - he retired in 2015.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14- You might know him as the voice of the balls on the Lottery.- Yeah.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Parky - Michael Parkinson, was a radio presenter for many years.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Diddy - David Hamilton.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22And Gamba - Paul Gambaccini, as I think you mentioned.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25And the turquoise group - Biting, Crisp, Snell, Rimy.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27- They might be synonyms for cold. - They all mean cold.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Snell a Scottish word for bitterly cold.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33So, no groups but all the connections - that is four points.
0:22:33 > 0:22:34Let's bring in their opponents now,
0:22:34 > 0:22:37give them the other Connecting Wall, see what they can do.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40You'll be getting the Lion Wall because Water's been taken.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43You have two and a half minutes to solve it, starting now.
0:22:48 > 0:22:49OK, there's cocktails.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56- BUZZER - What else is a cocktail?
0:22:56 > 0:22:57Bulldog.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02BUZZER
0:23:03 > 0:23:04BUZZER
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Alcove is part of a building.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09THEY CONFER
0:23:14 > 0:23:16- Leisler's means nothing.- No.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Wisley, does that mean anything?
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Flower show, shooting championship...
0:23:20 > 0:23:23- No, that's Bisley.- Oh.
0:23:30 > 0:23:31BUZZER
0:23:32 > 0:23:33Vesper's definitely a cocktail.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Screwdriver is definitely a cocktail.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44THEY CONFER
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Kamikaze is a Japanese word.

0:24:10 > 0:24:11BUZZER
0:24:12 > 0:24:13BUZZER
0:24:18 > 0:24:20Is there a Horseshoe cocktail?
0:24:26 > 0:24:28What about the ones that we don't know?
0:24:28 > 0:24:32That's got lake in it. That's got sea in it.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34That's got cove in it.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36River.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46BUZZER
0:24:46 > 0:24:48BUZZER Ten seconds.

0:24:50 > 0:24:51BUZZER
0:24:53 > 0:24:54BUZZER
0:24:56 > 0:24:58That's it, the time's up, but you found a group, which,
0:24:58 > 0:25:00let me tell you, can be hard to do.
0:25:00 > 0:25:04What about the connections? Screwdriver, Chelsea, Flake, Alcove.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06They've all got bodies of water hidden in them.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08That's right, bodies of water at the end of the words, there -
0:25:08 > 0:25:10river, sea, lake, cove.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13And you can still get points for the connections in the groups
0:25:13 > 0:25:16you didn't find, so let's resolve the wall. There we go.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19Cardiff, Chatsworth, Rosemoor, Wisley.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23- Any ideas?- Stately homes. - Stately homes.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25No, they are flower shows,
0:25:25 > 0:25:30Royal Horticultural Society flower shows, RHS Wisley and so on.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34And the next group - Salty Dog, Kamikaze, Cape Cod, Vesper.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36- They're all cocktails. - They are cocktails.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38They're vodka cocktails,
0:25:38 > 0:25:40but I won't make you be more specific on this horrible wall.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45And the last group - Serotine, Leisler's, Horseshoe, Bulldog.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48- Are they all clips? - They are not, they are bats.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51As in, flap, flap in the moonlight type of bats. They are all bats.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53What a nasty wall!
0:25:53 > 0:25:54But well done for finding a group,
0:25:54 > 0:25:57and you also got two connection points, that's a total of three.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59Let's have a look at the overall scores.
0:26:06 > 0:26:07So, everyone's relieved,
0:26:07 > 0:26:11as you find out that the other team didn't solve the wall either.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13We're now going to play the missing vowels round,
0:26:13 > 0:26:15so fingers on buzzers, teams.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17I can tell you that the first group are all the...

0:26:40 > 0:26:41Next category...
0:26:46 > 0:26:48- Detectives?- Hepatitis and liver. - Lovely.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55- Escapologists? - Nephritis and kidney.- Delightful.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02- Detectives?- Sinusitis and nose.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05I'm afraid that's not it. Escapologists, do you know?
0:27:05 > 0:27:06Sinusitis and sinus.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10That's right, there's an S that doesn't work in yours. Last clue...
0:27:10 > 0:27:13- Escapologists.- Arthritis and joints. - My personal favourite.
0:27:13 > 0:27:14Next category...
0:27:18 > 0:27:20- Detectives?- Weston-super-Mare. - Correct.
0:27:23 > 0:27:27- Escapologists?- Ashton-under-Lyne. - Yes, it is.

0:27:48 > 0:27:50DETECTIVES BUZZ IN, END OF SHOW JINGLE
0:27:52 > 0:27:54No time to tell me the answer - what would you have said?
0:27:54 > 0:27:56- Fidelio and Beethoven. - Oh, you know it now?
0:27:56 > 0:27:57We had it earlier in the show!
0:27:57 > 0:27:59That's absolutely right, but too late for the bell.
