Hello and welcome to Only Connect. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
And if you'd like to come along | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
and be in the live audience for the show, | 0:00:25 | 0:00:26 | |
then please drop us a line via the website. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:28 | |
I mean, it'll be slightly weird | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
because we don't have a live audience for the show. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
There isn't a great crowd of people here, | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
not laughing at the things I say. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:35 | |
Apart from the crew. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:36 | |
But you can stand with them, the cameramen, they won't mind, | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
they haven't got much to do. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:40 | |
They're just standing around, standing, standing. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
We're not making Lord Of The Rings. Although sometimes it looks like it. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:46 | |
Let's meet the teams. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:47 | |
On my right, Ian King, | 0:00:48 | 0:00:50 | |
a French and Russian graduate who's listed in | 0:00:50 | 0:00:52 | |
the Guinness Book Of Records, along with 2,275 colleagues, | 0:00:52 | 0:00:56 | |
for standing on one leg. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:57 | |
Tim Harrison, a communications consultant | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
who used to be a heavyweight boxer. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
And their captain, Tim Hall, a former accountant | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
who successfully predicted a woman's pregnancy using tarot cards. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:10 | |
All fans of Inspector Morse, | 0:01:10 | 0:01:12 | |
they are the Detectives. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:13 | |
Now, you lost your last game against the Escapologists. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
How competitive are you feeling about tonight's match? | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
We're going to be absolutely, massively competitive | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
as long as that's all right with everyone else. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
Terrifying. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
The opponents you're scaring tonight are, on my left, | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
Rob Cromarty, a former archaeologist who enjoys writing Latin poetry. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:33 | |
Aidan Sproat-Clements, a head of mathematics | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
who designed his own wedding stationery using fractals. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
And their captain, Dan Sproat-Clements, | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
a housemaster who recently enjoyed a wine-tasting trip to Chablis | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
and ended up attending a wedding reception with the vineyard's owner. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:48 | |
All working at Wellington College, | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
they are the Beaks. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:51 | |
You lost your last game against the Belgophiles. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
Has that rattled the confidence? How's the team? | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
There wasn't much confidence to begin with so, yes, | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
whatever there was has now safely run away and hidden in the corner. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
We tossed a coin to see who would be going first in this match. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
Detectives, you won. Please choose an Egyptian hieroglyph. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
Can we have Water, please? | 0:02:08 | 0:02:09 | |
Water. Good luck, both teams. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:10 | |
Someone has to go home tonight, I hope it's neither of you. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
But I'm hoping in vain. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:14 | |
What is the connection between these apparently random clues? | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
Here's the first. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:19 | |
Next, please. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
That is the effect whereby stupid people don't realise they're stupid. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:31 | |
It's possible, the first one is very similar. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:32 | |
Shall we go for another one? | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
Next, please. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
That is when you are promoted to your level of incompetence. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:39 | |
Maximum, sort of... | 0:02:40 | 0:02:41 | |
All sorts of psychological effects | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
or psychological observations of how people behave. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
-But to do with intelligence? -Yeah. -Yeah. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
BELL | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
They're all psychological observations | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
about the way people act, | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
to do with their intelligence. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:00 | |
So, the Peter Principle, people are | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
promoted to the level of their incompetence. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
The Dunning-Kruger effect is when stupid people don't | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
realise that they're stupid. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:08 | |
I'm minded to accept it. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
That's very good of you. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:12 | |
I really want to hear incompetence | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
rather than intelligence or stupidity, but you're in | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
the right zone and I think you know what these things are. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
You didn't need to see the last one, Dilbert Principle, what's that? | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
Is it something to do with the cartoon Dilbert? | 0:03:22 | 0:03:24 | |
And the Pointy Haired Boss, presumably? | 0:03:24 | 0:03:26 | |
I don't know if it's to do with a cartoon. I know what it is. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
The idea is you promote somebody higher up the chain | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
because the higher up they are, the less damage they can do. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
So you keep the incompetent people... | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
I don't know what you're implying! | 0:03:36 | 0:03:37 | |
But at the lower levels, where people do the real work, | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
you keep the competent people. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:41 | |
And, yes, the Peter Principle is people rising to the level of | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
their incompetence. A similar idea, really. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
Putts Law is negative selection, | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
people who understand what they don't manage | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
and manage what they don't understand. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
The Dunning-Kruger effect, I think, as you said... Yes. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
My notes say, "A cognitive bias in which low ability individuals | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
"suffer from illusory superiority, | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
"assessing their own ability as higher than it really is." | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
We all know one of those. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:05 | |
I can literally see the cameramen nodding. Mmm-hmm. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
Do you know what it's inspired by, that study? | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
People called Dunning and Kruger. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
No, I think they were the people that did the study. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
No, it was a man who robbed two banks | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
and he covered his face in lemon juice... | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
Because he thought it makes | 0:04:19 | 0:04:21 | |
invisible ink or something like that? | 0:04:21 | 0:04:22 | |
Exactly so. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
Because you can make invisible ink, | 0:04:24 | 0:04:25 | |
he thought his face wouldn't be picked out by CCTV. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
Well done, you get two points. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
-Beaks, what would you like? -Eye of Horus, please. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:32 | |
The Eye of Horus. These are going to be picture clues. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:34 | |
Something connects them. What is it? | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
Time starts now. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:37 | |
Next, please. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:43 | |
Next. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:52 | |
BELL | 0:05:00 | 0:05:01 | |
Demi-something. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:04 | |
You also get two points for coming in after three clues. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
Well done. I'll show you the last clue, and tell me...? | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
-Demijohn? -Demijohn is the last one. What are the other pictures? | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
-The first is a demitasse, a cup. -That's right. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
And a demi-semi-quaver. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:15 | |
That's right. The second one, a demilune. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
A demi-semi-quaver, which is a 32nd note. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
Do you know what you call a 512th note? | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
-Give him a second. -Erm... | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
A hemi-demi-semi- hemi-demi-semi-quaver. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
All demi-somethings, well done. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
Back to you, Detectives, for a choice. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:34 | |
-Can we have Twisted Flax, please? -Yes, you can. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
What is the connection between these clues? | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
Here's the first. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:40 | |
Next, please. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
-They used to be one country. They used to be united. -Japan? | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
Do you want to go for another one? Just to be certain. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:56 | |
-I think we'd want to. -Next, please. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
-Let's go for it, shall we? -BELL | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
They all used to be one entity. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:19 | |
I'm afraid they did not. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
So I'm going to show the last clue to the Beaks for a possible bonus. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
-No? -No, you don't know. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:27 | |
-Got it now. -What is it? -Straits. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:29 | |
They're straits. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:30 | |
Straits, and the countries that they separate. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:32 | |
So, the Denmark Strait separates Iceland and Greenland, | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
the Korea Strait, South Korea and Japan. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:38 | |
And so forth. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:39 | |
What do you find at the western end of the Denmark Strait? | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
-Denmark? -SHE LAUGHS | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
You find the North Atlantic circulation pump. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:48 | |
What is the North Atlantic circulation pump? | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
-Erm... -An area of rising hot water | 0:06:50 | 0:06:51 | |
that keeps the Atlantic spinning the way it should? | 0:06:51 | 0:06:55 | |
I mean, in a way... | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
It's the world's highest waterfall, | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
-but it's underwater. -OK. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
And the difference in temperature means the air...? | 0:07:02 | 0:07:04 | |
That's right, you get temperature differences. Isn't that weird? | 0:07:04 | 0:07:07 | |
I think it's cheating for a waterfall to be underwater, | 0:07:07 | 0:07:09 | |
because how do you get to go and look at it? | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
That's what you'd find at the western end of the Denmark Strait. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:13 | |
So, no points there. Beaks, your turn to pick a hieroglyph. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:16 | |
-Lion, please. -Lion. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:18 | |
What is the connection between these apparently random clues? | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
Here's the first. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:21 | |
Next, please. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:27 | |
Next, please. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
Are they anagrams? | 0:07:42 | 0:07:43 | |
-Yes! -BELL | 0:07:45 | 0:07:47 | |
They are anagrams of your Only Connect hieroglyphs. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:52 | |
They are anagrams of hieroglyphs. Very well done. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
I'm going to show you the last clue. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
What are they anagrams for? | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
Water, Lion, Two Reeds and Horned Viper. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:03 | |
That's right. The first one, Horned Viper. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:05 | |
Ed Towers is Two Reeds. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:06 | |
Loin is Lion. ET war, Water. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
-Shall I tell you some others? -Please. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
All very appropriate. Horned Viper, "no perv hired". | 0:08:11 | 0:08:15 | |
If only. If only, is what I'd say to that. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:18 | |
You can also make "hide porn rev" and "hen provider". | 0:08:18 | 0:08:21 | |
Eye of Horus, "house foray". | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
Twisted Flax, "fits lewd tax". | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
All anagrams of hieroglyphs used on Only Connect. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
Very well spotted. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:30 | |
Detectives, what would you like? | 0:08:30 | 0:08:32 | |
-Can we have Two Reeds, please? -Two Reeds. OK, | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
I'm afraid it's the music question. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:36 | |
You'll be hearing your lovely clues. What connects them? | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
Time starts now. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
# This old world will never change... | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
-Do you have an idea? -No. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:47 | |
# ..The way it's been... # | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
Next, please. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:54 | |
# I'm going to wash the dishes | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
# While you go have a beer... # | 0:08:57 | 0:09:01 | |
Next, please. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:02 | |
# Hey, kids, shake it loose together | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
# The spotlight's hitting something | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
# That's been known to change the weather | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
# We'll kill the fatted... # | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
Next, please. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:12 | |
UP-TEMPO DIXIELAND JAZZ | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
BELL | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
-Are they all NFL teams? -Very well done. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:22 | |
-What did we hear? -We recognised Bennie And The Jets | 0:09:22 | 0:09:24 | |
-and When The Saints Go Marching In. -Yep? | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
-Haven't a clue on the others. -We also heard Dolphins, Tim Buckley, | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
for the Miami Dolphins. And Where Have All The Cowboys Gone?, | 0:09:30 | 0:09:32 | |
Paula Cole. Well spotted. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
All contain NFL teams in their titles. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
Back to you, Beaks. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:39 | |
I suppose it will be the Horned Viper. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:41 | |
Hide porn rev. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:42 | |
It's the Horned Viper question. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
What is the connection between these clues? | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
Here's the first. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:47 | |
Next, please. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
Are these David Walliams novels? | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
-Are you sure? -Yeah, go for it. Let's go for it. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
BELL | 0:10:02 | 0:10:04 | |
David Walliams novels. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:05 | |
I'm afraid not. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:07 | |
So I'm going to show the next two clues to the Detectives | 0:10:07 | 0:10:09 | |
for a possible bonus point. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
They've all won the prize for children's literature. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:15 | |
Carnegie, is it? | 0:10:15 | 0:10:16 | |
No, they may have all won prizes, but not all the same one. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:19 | |
Gangsta Granny is a David Walliams novel. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:21 | |
The Butterfly Lion is Michael Morpurgo. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:23 | |
The Selfish Giant, Oscar Wilde. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
They are children's stories in which the title character dies. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:30 | |
Sorry for the spoiler, there. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:32 | |
But, yes, that is the connection, is that they have tragic endings. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
-Do you know The Selfish Giant, the Oscar Wilde story? -No. | 0:10:35 | 0:10:39 | |
A giant dies under a tree. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:42 | |
Do people feel sorry for him? Because he is selfish. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
I think he becomes less selfish over the course of the story, | 0:10:44 | 0:10:46 | |
-then dies anyway. -Oh, I see. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:48 | |
The Butterfly Lion... | 0:10:48 | 0:10:50 | |
This is awful, I'm reading these plots. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:52 | |
The title character is befriended as an orphan cub, sold, | 0:10:52 | 0:10:56 | |
then it dies and then... | 0:10:56 | 0:10:57 | |
Right, I'm never reading that, I'm never reading that. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
At the end of Round One, | 0:11:01 | 0:11:03 | |
the Detectives have three points, | 0:11:03 | 0:11:05 | |
the Beaks have four. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:06 | |
Round Two, the sequences round. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
The teams may see a maximum of three clues. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
I want to know what will come fourth in a sequence. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:15 | |
Detectives, you'll be going first again. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:16 | |
-Which hieroglyph would you like? -Can we have Eye of Horus, please? | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
Yes, you can. What will come fourth in this sequence? | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
Here's the first. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:23 | |
Next, please. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:33 | |
CNN? | 0:11:36 | 0:11:37 | |
Fox? | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
Next. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:43 | |
-That's HB. -HBO. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
So what's that? That's HBOS. HBO. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:49 | |
HB. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:50 | |
-So will that be just H? -Hydrogen. -Yeah. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:52 | |
BELL | 0:11:54 | 0:11:55 | |
Hydrogen. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:56 | |
Is an acceptable answer. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
I'd have preferred Ian Watkins from Steps. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
-But why? -It's going from HBOS to HBO, to HB, to H. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
That's right. HBOS, HBO, HB, | 0:12:05 | 0:12:07 | |
I need something representing H. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:09 | |
Being more highbrow than us, | 0:12:09 | 0:12:10 | |
you chose hydrogen rather than a member of Steps. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
Back to you, Beaks, for a choice. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:14 | |
-Water, please. -Water. What would come fourth in this sequence? | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
Here's the first. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:19 | |
Next, please. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:27 | |
Heads, shoulders, knees and toes. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:32 | |
-Toes is phalanges. -No, meta... | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
Or metatarsals. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
Yeah, yeah, go for it. Go for it. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:39 | |
BELL | 0:12:42 | 0:12:43 | |
-Metatarsals. -And why would that be? | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
Head, shoulders, knees and toes. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:47 | |
I'll accept it, that's the right puzzle. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
I think a doctor would tell you that phalanges would be more correct | 0:12:50 | 0:12:54 | |
than metatarsals, but you have solved the puzzle. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
These are of course...? | 0:12:56 | 0:12:58 | |
The bones corresponding to the bits | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
in the song Head, Shoulders, Knees And Toes. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
I think your parietal bone is that bit around your temples and eyes. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:06 | |
Yes, the sides and top of the cranium. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:08 | |
And the collarbone connects the shoulder blade to the sternum. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
-Kneecaps? -Yes, patellae. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:13 | |
Do you know...? Who's the classicist? | 0:13:13 | 0:13:15 | |
Oh, dear. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:17 | |
What does that mean, do you know? | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
Given the ending, I'd suggest it's a diminutive, | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
-so it's a small form of something. -A little pan. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:23 | |
Isn't that sweet? The knees, little pans. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:26 | |
Two girls, one on each knee. | 0:13:26 | 0:13:28 | |
Phalanges, the bones of the toes, | 0:13:29 | 0:13:30 | |
metatarsals, bones of the foot, I think, really. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:32 | |
But you've solved it correctly. Well done. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:35 | |
Back to you, Detectives, for a choice. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:37 | |
-Lion, please. -Lion. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:38 | |
OK, what will come fourth in this sequence? | 0:13:38 | 0:13:41 | |
Here's the first. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:42 | |
Next, please. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:49 | |
Next, please. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:55 | |
Right, he's the host of the... | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
Which show in America? Of the late-night talk shows? | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
-Has he been replaced by James Corden? -Yes. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
BELL | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
Without a huge amount of confidence, James Corden. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
Is the right answer. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:17 | |
Why do you think that might be? | 0:14:17 | 0:14:18 | |
They are the hosts of a late-night chat show in America, | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
-but I can't remember which one. -The Late Late Show, that's right, | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
an American talk show from 1995 to the present. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
What is James Corden's middle name? | 0:14:27 | 0:14:28 | |
It's gone completely from my head. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:31 | |
-Do you know? -Alexander? | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
-Kimberley. -Oh. -It's Kimberley. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:35 | |
So even though you weren't confident, you were correct | 0:14:35 | 0:14:37 | |
and you may have the points. Well done. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:39 | |
Back to you, Beaks, for a choice. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
-Horned Viper, please. -OK. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:42 | |
What would come fourth in this picture sequence? | 0:14:42 | 0:14:46 | |
Here's the first. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:47 | |
Is that London? | 0:14:49 | 0:14:50 | |
Next, please. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:54 | |
That's Fawlty Towers. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:57 | |
No, no. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
'97 was Tony Blair. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:16 | |
So then it's Gordon Brown. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
-Do something. -Two seconds. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:25 | |
BELL | 0:15:25 | 0:15:26 | |
Erm... | 0:15:26 | 0:15:27 | |
So. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
Erm... | 0:15:29 | 0:15:30 | |
2000 and, erm... | 0:15:30 | 0:15:32 | |
..17, and... | 0:15:32 | 0:15:35 | |
I'm going to stop you there, I'm afraid that is not the right answer. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |
So I'm going to show the third in the sequence for the Detectives | 0:15:38 | 0:15:40 | |
for a possible bonus point. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
-Holland? -Yeah. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:44 | |
I can't give you long. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:45 | |
2015 and a picture of a Cameron Highlander. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
Nope. What do you think the sequence is? | 0:15:47 | 0:15:50 | |
Is it leaders of the Conservative Party in the year they left? | 0:15:50 | 0:15:52 | |
So it would be 2016 and a Cameron Highlander? | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
It's the year they lost elections. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:58 | |
So, Heath, '74. Major, '97. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:01 | |
We want then Hague, The Hague, 2001. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
2005, Howard. Michael Howard. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:06 | |
So we've got Howard the Duck there. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:08 | |
That is the sequence. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:09 | |
It is Tory leaders who lost a general election | 0:16:09 | 0:16:11 | |
and we're going towards Howard. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:14 | |
You both bounded too far into the future. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
But you have your own question, Detectives, which is it to be? | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
-Can we have Two Reeds, please? -Yes, you can. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:20 | |
What will come fourth in this sequence? | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
Here's the first. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:23 | |
Next, please. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:33 | |
BELL | 0:16:47 | 0:16:48 | |
31-40:2. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:50 | |
Is the right answer. And why is that? | 0:16:50 | 0:16:51 | |
We think it is the number of prime numbers within that range. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
That's exactly right, it's as simple as that. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
between 31 and 40 there are two prime numbers. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:58 | |
One question remains, the Twisted Flax. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:02 | |
What would come fourth in this sequence? | 0:17:02 | 0:17:04 | |
Here's the first. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:05 | |
Next, please. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:08 | |
It won the Best Picture. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:13 | |
It was originally the stage version of My Fair Lady. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:22 | |
Next, please. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:23 | |
Was Chicago the next musical to win Best Picture? | 0:17:25 | 0:17:29 | |
-I think so. -Go for it. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
BELL | 0:17:31 | 0:17:32 | |
-Chicago. -Is the right answer. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:35 | |
What is the sequence? | 0:17:35 | 0:17:36 | |
These are musicals that have won the Best Picture at the Oscars. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:39 | |
That is exactly right. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:41 | |
And why was our question editor disappointed in the spring of 2017? | 0:17:41 | 0:17:45 | |
Because La La Land very nearly won and then didn't. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:49 | |
Exactly so. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:50 | |
Even though Moonlight is unarguably the better film, | 0:17:50 | 0:17:55 | |
it's not so interesting when you're | 0:17:55 | 0:17:56 | |
trying to make sequences in Only Connect. Had La La Land won, | 0:17:56 | 0:17:59 | |
as Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway tried to make happen, | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
it would have been so useful for our show. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
Has there ever been a more embarrassing moment at the Oscars? | 0:18:04 | 0:18:07 | |
Gwyneth Paltrow's crying? | 0:18:07 | 0:18:09 | |
I don't know. She cried, Jennifer Lawrence fell over, | 0:18:09 | 0:18:12 | |
there've been terrible speeches, but declaring the wrong thing | 0:18:12 | 0:18:15 | |
and then the people are taking the thing and then...aargh! | 0:18:15 | 0:18:18 | |
Terrible. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:21 | |
But the right answer. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:22 | |
That means, at the end of Round Two, | 0:18:22 | 0:18:24 | |
the Beaks have nine points, | 0:18:24 | 0:18:26 | |
the Detectives have ten. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:27 | |
Time now for the Wall Game. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:31 | |
Sorry, Beaks, wrong school. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:33 | |
But you do get to go first. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:34 | |
Would you like Lion or Water? | 0:18:34 | 0:18:36 | |
-Lion, please. -Lion. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:37 | |
You have 2.5 minutes to solve the Lion wall, starting now. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:42 | |
Catcher is a baseball player. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
A channel, a gutter, a trench... | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
Long on's a cricket fielder, | 0:18:48 | 0:18:49 | |
gully's a fielder, slip's a fielder. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
And point's a fielder. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:52 | |
-BUZZ -And so is cover. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:56 | |
-Not gutter, not gutter. -BUZZ | 0:18:58 | 0:18:59 | |
Slip, gully, long on and point. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:02 | |
-Channel...gully... -BUZZ | 0:19:02 | 0:19:04 | |
Gutter's a term in bowling. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
BUZZ | 0:19:07 | 0:19:09 | |
BUZZ | 0:19:10 | 0:19:11 | |
-Creek, culvert... -BUZZ | 0:19:13 | 0:19:15 | |
-Creek, culvert... -Gully and ditch? | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
-Gully, ditch. -And trench. -BUZZ | 0:19:17 | 0:19:18 | |
And also channel, please. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:20 | |
-A slip is an item of clothing. -BUZZ | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |
Can I keep trying the...? | 0:19:23 | 0:19:24 | |
-OK, so... -BUZZ | 0:19:30 | 0:19:31 | |
-Butch Cassidy, Pat Garrett... -BUZZ | 0:19:31 | 0:19:33 | |
-..they're cowboys. -BUZZ | 0:19:33 | 0:19:35 | |
Fine. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:36 | |
BUZZ | 0:19:37 | 0:19:38 | |
-BUZZ -Long on, gully, slip and cover | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
-and point are all fielding points. -BUZZ | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
-OK, fine. -BUZZ | 0:19:45 | 0:19:46 | |
BUZZ | 0:19:48 | 0:19:49 | |
BUZZ | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
-Hmm, this is rather difficult. -BUZZ | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
Catcher is a cricket position as well. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:57 | |
-BUZZ -Is it? | 0:19:57 | 0:19:59 | |
BUZZ | 0:19:59 | 0:20:00 | |
So, creek is... Wonderful. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:02 | |
So, Creek's a detective, Creek is a river. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |
Ditch is a river area. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:06 | |
We're quite hard for time. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
BUZZ | 0:20:08 | 0:20:09 | |
Banish is to... | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
Three lives, one minute. | 0:20:13 | 0:20:15 | |
Slipper? P-E-R at the end? OK. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:18 | |
Lip's in there, but's in there, ban's in there and cat is in there. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:23 | |
OK, so... Postman Pat. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:26 | |
Can we try that as one which is...? | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
But there's no link to those words. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:31 | |
-Well, they all contain another hidden word. -Of? | 0:20:31 | 0:20:33 | |
They've all got a short, three-letter word in them. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:36 | |
-BUZZ -OK. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:38 | |
So... | 0:20:38 | 0:20:39 | |
-Is there a word...? -Butch Cassidy, Pat Garrett. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:46 | |
Pat Cash, Jonathan Creek. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
Ten seconds. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:51 | |
Let's go with something. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:52 | |
BUZZ | 0:20:54 | 0:20:55 | |
-BUZZ -OK. -OK. -That's it. | 0:20:57 | 0:20:59 | |
Your lives are up, but you found two groups on that horrible wall. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
Can you tell me the connections? | 0:21:02 | 0:21:04 | |
Cover, gully, point, long on? | 0:21:04 | 0:21:06 | |
They're fielding positions in cricket. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:08 | |
That's exactly what they are. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:09 | |
And the green group - ditch, gutter, culvert, channel? | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
They're all things that water drains through. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:14 | |
All conduits for water. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:15 | |
And what about the groups you didn't find? | 0:21:15 | 0:21:17 | |
Let's resolve the wall. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:19 | |
There you go. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:21 | |
Catcher, slip, pat, boy? | 0:21:21 | 0:21:23 | |
-Things that are best? -No. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:26 | |
Now, You mentioned Butch Cassidy earlier. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:28 | |
It's cow. Like cowboy. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:30 | |
Cowboy, cowpat, cowslip, cow catcher | 0:21:30 | 0:21:32 | |
is something to do with a train. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:34 | |
Oh, yes, in front. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:35 | |
Cow at the beginning of all of them. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:38 | |
And the last, turquoise group - | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
trench, butch, creek, banish? | 0:21:41 | 0:21:43 | |
Can you put the letters E-R at the end of them to make...? | 0:21:43 | 0:21:48 | |
-I think creeker is not quite anything. -I'm not sure. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:51 | |
This is what it is. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:52 | |
You can change the first letter to make a language. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:56 | |
-French, Dutch, Greek, Danish. -Greek! -Danish! -Wow. -Unlucky. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:59 | |
But you did find two groups and give me the connections, | 0:21:59 | 0:22:02 | |
that's a total of four. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:04 | |
Let's bring in their opponents now and give them | 0:22:04 | 0:22:06 | |
the other connecting wall, the Water wall, see how they get on. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
You have got 2.5 minutes to solve the Water wall, starting now. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:13 | |
OK, shall we go for some of them? | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
-BUZZ -OK, what else? | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
BUZZ | 0:22:30 | 0:22:31 | |
BUZZ | 0:22:32 | 0:22:33 | |
OK, that's in heraldry. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:38 | |
Shall we try heraldry? | 0:22:38 | 0:22:40 | |
Pale fire? | 0:22:40 | 0:22:41 | |
Anemone, erm... | 0:22:41 | 0:22:43 | |
Anemone is a plant and a... | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
Is that heraldry? | 0:22:48 | 0:22:49 | |
Other plants here. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:51 | |
Other plants... | 0:22:51 | 0:22:53 | |
-Women's names as well. -Yeah. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:54 | |
I think we need to work out what... | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
Sea anemone, sea cucumber. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
Sea gooseberry? Sea violet? | 0:23:00 | 0:23:02 | |
BUZZ | 0:23:02 | 0:23:03 | |
-OK. -Three lives now. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
Bend sinister, pale fire... | 0:23:07 | 0:23:09 | |
You think those are both heraldry? | 0:23:09 | 0:23:11 | |
Violet? Cora? | 0:23:11 | 0:23:12 | |
It's Downton Abbey. I don't watch it, but... | 0:23:14 | 0:23:17 | |
Cora, Edith, Mary | 0:23:17 | 0:23:18 | |
and... | 0:23:18 | 0:23:20 | |
..and Violet, I think. | 0:23:20 | 0:23:21 | |
What would these other ones be? They're books by... | 0:23:21 | 0:23:24 | |
..by Nabokov, aren't they? | 0:23:24 | 0:23:26 | |
Lolita. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:27 | |
So, we think it might be Violet. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:31 | |
-And those are all Nabokov, do we think? -Yeah. | 0:23:31 | 0:23:34 | |
-Really? -Let's see if it's right first. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:36 | |
-BUZZ -It's not. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
So, what else can be...? | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
That must be a novel, if they're novels, that must be a novel. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:44 | |
Lolita, there's no Lolita in Downton. | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
-OK, so we've tried... -Is Isabel in Downton? | 0:23:48 | 0:23:50 | |
-Is there a Cora in Downton? -Yes. -OK. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:54 | |
There's a Mary, Edith and Cora. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:55 | |
Try... We did... | 0:23:55 | 0:23:58 | |
Yeah. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:00 | |
-BUZZ -OK. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:02 | |
-And Lolita? -There's no Lolita in Downton. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
So it's Cora or Mary. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:10 | |
Could be, couldn't it? Or it could be Mary. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:13 | |
Shall we go for one of these? | 0:24:13 | 0:24:14 | |
-We've tried...? -No. -We haven't tried this. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:21 | |
Shall we go for this? I don't think we can get any further. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:24 | |
BUZZ | 0:24:24 | 0:24:25 | |
That's it, that is your three lives. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
But you found two groups and can you tell me the connection | 0:24:27 | 0:24:30 | |
in the first one, starting lilac? | 0:24:30 | 0:24:32 | |
They're all shades of purple. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:33 | |
All shades of purple. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:35 | |
And the green group - lily, cucumber, anemone, gooseberry? | 0:24:35 | 0:24:38 | |
If you put sea in front of them, you get a different sort of organism. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:42 | |
You can put sea in front of all of them. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:44 | |
You can still get points for the connections, | 0:24:44 | 0:24:46 | |
so let's resolve the wall. | 0:24:46 | 0:24:47 | |
There you go. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:48 | |
Mary, Bend Sinister, Pale Fire, Lolita? | 0:24:48 | 0:24:52 | |
We think these must be Nabokov works. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:54 | |
They are novels by Vladimir Nabokov. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:56 | |
And the last group - Violet, Edith, Cora, Isabel? | 0:24:56 | 0:25:00 | |
These are Downton Abbey characters. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:01 | |
They are the characters from Downton Abbey and Mary was the red herring. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:05 | |
So, two points for the groups and four for the connections, | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
that's a total of six. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:09 | |
Let's have a look at the scores going into the final round. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:12 | |
So it's quite close and the outcome will be decided | 0:25:18 | 0:25:20 | |
in the missing vowels round. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:22 | |
Fingers on buzzers, teams. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:24 | |
The first group of disguised clues | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
are all things you might do if you're angry. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:29 | |

Correct. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:47 | |
-Detectives? -Go through the roof. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:51 | |
Correct. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:52 | |
Next category... | 0:25:52 | 0:25:54 | |
-Detectives? -Kingdom of Denmark. | 0:25:57 | 0:25:59 | |
Yes, it is. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:00 | |
-Beaks? -Commonwealth of Australia. | 0:26:02 | 0:26:05 | |
Correct. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:06 | |
Well, this is horrible. It's Plurinational State of Bolivia. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:15 | |
Next clue. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:16 | |
And this one is Federation of Saint Christopher and Nevis. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:27 | |
Next category... | 0:26:27 | 0:26:29 | |
-Beaks? -How do you do? | 0:26:32 | 0:26:33 | |
Correct. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:35 | |
-Beaks? -Pleased to meet you. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:38 | |
Lovely. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:39 | |
-Beaks? -Well played. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:43 | |
Yes, indeed. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:44 | |
-Beaks? -Congratulations. | 0:26:46 | 0:26:48 | |
Very good. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:49 | |
Next category... | 0:26:49 | 0:26:51 | |
-Detectives? -Quack. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:54 | |
Correct. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:55 | |
No time to tell me that the answer to that is leech | 0:27:00 | 0:27:02 | |
because the bell has gone for the end of the quiz. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:05 | |
And I can tell you that | 0:27:05 | 0:27:08 | |
the Beaks have 20 points, | 0:27:08 | 0:27:10 | |
the Detectives have... | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
..20 points! It is a tie-break. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:13 | |
No! | 0:27:13 | 0:27:14 | |
We haven't had one of those in this series so far. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:17 | |
How tense! | 0:27:17 | 0:27:20 | |
Teams, I will remind you that the rules of a tie-break are | 0:27:20 | 0:27:23 | |
there will be one decisive clue. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:25 | |
It is captains only. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:27 | |
The other team members will not contribute. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:30 | |
Captains, you buzz in when you think you know the answer. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:32 | |
If you're right, you automatically win the quiz. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:34 | |
If you're wrong, you automatically forfeit the quiz. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:38 | |
So... | 0:27:38 | 0:27:39 | |
..fingers on buzzers, captains. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:42 | |
Good luck. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:44 | |
The tie-breaker clue is coming in...now. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:47 | |
-Detectives? -Dammed if you do, dammed if you don't. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:54 | |
Is the right answer. | 0:27:54 | 0:27:55 | |
Very well done. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:01 | |
Oh, my goodness, what a close one. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:02 | |
You are through to the next round. | 0:28:02 | 0:28:05 | |
Beaks, I'm so sorry. | 0:28:05 | 0:28:07 | |
What an incredibly likeable team. | 0:28:07 | 0:28:09 | |
One of my absolute favourites from the series. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 | |
I'm really sorry you're going and it couldn't have been closer. | 0:28:11 | 0:28:15 | |
I think you knew the answer there? | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
Yeah, I was... Yeah, same time. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:18 | |
A fraction of a second too late. | 0:28:18 | 0:28:20 | |
But you've done brilliantly, you've done almost equally brilliantly. | 0:28:20 | 0:28:24 | |
Very well done. | 0:28:24 | 0:28:25 | |
That's right, there are no losers here. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:28 | |
Apart from those guys. | 0:28:28 | 0:28:30 | |
Goodbye. | 0:28:30 | 0:28:31 |
