Hello and welcome to Only Connect. Sorry if I seem a bit disorientated.

0:00:210:00:25

Last night I was visited by three spirits, of Christmas Past,

0:00:250:00:29

Christmas Present and Christmas Yet To Come.

0:00:290:00:32

Honestly, those ghosts get earlier and earlier every year.

0:00:320:00:35

I've said to them, "It doesn't matter how many times you point

0:00:350:00:37

"at my grave, I am not playing blind man's buff

0:00:370:00:40

"in my nephew's living room.

0:00:400:00:42

"It's just a groper's charter."

0:00:420:00:43

Quizzing tonight, two fresh teams, and they are,

0:00:440:00:47

on my right,

0:00:470:00:49

Andrew Burford,

0:00:490:00:51

a Black Country ombudsman who once ate his own height in sandwiches,

0:00:510:00:55

Simon Williams,

0:00:550:00:57

a law graduate, who at the age of 18,

0:00:570:00:59

took the complete works of Oscar Wilde

0:00:590:01:01

on a holiday to Ayia Napa.

0:01:010:01:02

And their captain, Neil Clarke,

0:01:020:01:05

a chartered accountant who opened a bank account for his daughter when

0:01:050:01:08

she was ten hours old and started her pension when she was two.

0:01:080:01:12

United by a weakness for wickets, they are the Cricketers.

0:01:120:01:15

How's your team feeling ahead of its first appearance?

0:01:150:01:18

Er, scared, nervous, petrified,

0:01:180:01:20

-frightened are four words to describe how we feel.

-Excellent.

0:01:200:01:24

And over the course of the evening, I hope that gets worse and worse.

0:01:240:01:27

You are playing tonight, on my left,

0:01:270:01:30

Luke Kelly,

0:01:300:01:31

a European studies graduate,

0:01:310:01:33

who gave away a live pig on a Spanish TV quiz show.

0:01:330:01:37

Rob Cumming, a quiz question writer

0:01:370:01:39

who has twice knocked out his two front teeth,

0:01:390:01:41

and their captain, Julia Hobbs,

0:01:410:01:43

a modern languages graduate

0:01:430:01:45

who has performed as a stunt bottom on a BBC comedy programme.

0:01:450:01:49

All quiz writers by trade,

0:01:490:01:51

they are the Inquisitors.

0:01:510:01:52

A team of question setters, eh?

0:01:520:01:54

-Yes.

-And now you've turned gamekeeper. How does that feel?

0:01:540:01:57

Erm, well, I quiz quite a lot.

0:01:570:01:59

We quiz together in a team,

0:01:590:02:00

so we're quite used to answering the questions,

0:02:000:02:03

but this is a little bit different

0:02:030:02:05

from what we're used to.

0:02:050:02:07

-Good luck.

-Thank you.

0:02:070:02:09

You won the toss, Cricketers,

0:02:090:02:10

but in a first act of gamesmanship,

0:02:100:02:12

you've decided to put your opponents in first.

0:02:120:02:14

So, Inquisitors, please choose your Egyptian hieroglyph.

0:02:140:02:18

-Er, Lion, please.

-OK.

0:02:180:02:21

You're about to see the first of four apparently random clues,

0:02:210:02:23

but they all have something in common.

0:02:230:02:25

What is it? Your time starts now.

0:02:250:02:28

THEY CONFER

0:02:300:02:32

Oh, yeah...

0:02:330:02:34

THEY CONFER

0:02:340:02:36

OK. Shall we go for one more?

0:02:380:02:39

-Go for one more?

-Shall we go for one more?

0:02:390:02:42

That's genius, though.

0:02:420:02:43

-That's very good...

-Shall we go for it?

0:02:430:02:45

-Shall we go for it?

-Yeah, go on.

0:02:450:02:48

Er, they are spoonerisms of things

0:02:480:02:50

that you wear

0:02:500:02:51

and where you wear them on the body.

0:02:510:02:53

I am so impressed with your bravery

0:02:530:02:56

-at coming in this early...

-Oh, God!

0:02:560:02:58

..I'm going to let you have a go

0:02:580:03:00

-at rewording that answer.

-Ah...

0:03:000:03:03

-OK, then.

-OK.

0:03:030:03:04

Maybe it's just a simple...anagram.

0:03:040:03:07

Maybe it's just not things that you wear, then?

0:03:070:03:09

For five points, they are not all things that you wear,

0:03:090:03:11

but they are all spoonerisms.

0:03:110:03:14

Coming in after one clue,

0:03:140:03:16

-you get five points.

-Brilliant...

0:03:160:03:18

What are the rest of the clues?

0:03:180:03:20

-OK, parking meter.

-Parking meter...

0:03:200:03:22

Block of flats and jellybeans.

0:03:220:03:24

-"Belly jeans", I quite like that.

-Exactly right.

0:03:240:03:27

Very well done for the full five.

0:03:270:03:30

Cricketers, the game's afoot.

0:03:300:03:31

-What would you like?

-Twisted Flax, please.

-The Twisted Flax. OK.

0:03:310:03:35

These are going to be picture clues.

0:03:350:03:37

They all have something in common. Here's the first...

0:03:370:03:39

THEY CONFER

0:03:410:03:42

-Shall we have the next?

-Next.

0:03:420:03:44

Madonna.

0:03:450:03:46

THEY CONFER

0:03:480:03:50

-Shall we go for the next?

-Yeah.

-Next, please.

0:03:520:03:54

Submarine.

0:03:560:03:58

Are they Beatles songs?

0:03:580:03:59

THEY CONFER

0:03:590:04:02

Do you want to go with that?

0:04:020:04:05

They're all part of Beatles song titles.

0:04:050:04:07

Absolutely correct.

0:04:070:04:08

You didn't need to see the walrus at the end, there.

0:04:080:04:11

Very well done.

0:04:110:04:12

Were you tempted to come in

0:04:120:04:13

-after one clue?

-No! No.

0:04:130:04:14

Raccoon, what else could it be?

0:04:140:04:17

Raccoon!

0:04:170:04:18

What are the songs?

0:04:180:04:19

I think... Is it Ricky Raccoon?

0:04:190:04:21

-Rocky Raccoon.

-Rocky Raccoon.

0:04:210:04:23

Lady Madonna. Yellow Submarine.

0:04:230:04:24

-I Am The Walrus.

-That's absolutely right.

0:04:240:04:26

You know, I Am The Walrus was banned by the BBC,

0:04:260:04:28

because of the words

0:04:280:04:30

"pornographic priestesses"

0:04:300:04:31

and "let your knickers down".

0:04:310:04:33

And listen to me just saying them,

0:04:330:04:35

just saying them.

0:04:350:04:36

That's the 21st century for you.

0:04:360:04:38

It's all gone downhill. Very well done for two points.

0:04:380:04:40

Back to you, Inquisitors,

0:04:400:04:42

what would you like this time?

0:04:420:04:43

-Horned Viper, please.

-The Horned Viper.

0:04:430:04:45

What is the connection between these clues?

0:04:450:04:47

Here's the first.

0:04:470:04:48

-Anything.

-It sounds Welsh.

-Maybe it's Welsh.

0:04:520:04:56

Next, please.

0:04:560:04:57

Football division. First... Football League, First Division...

0:04:590:05:02

THEY CONFER

0:05:020:05:05

Oh, I don't know.

0:05:050:05:07

Next one.

0:05:070:05:08

Next, please.

0:05:100:05:11

Pluto.

0:05:130:05:15

THEY CONFER

0:05:150:05:17

Yeah, things that don't exist any more. Replaced by other things?

0:05:170:05:20

Yes, yes.

0:05:200:05:21

-Things that don't exist any more?

-Things that have been downgraded.

0:05:210:05:24

-OK.

-The first... Yeah, they have been downgraded.

0:05:240:05:26

-I think.

-Things that have been...

0:05:260:05:28

There's the First Division...

0:05:280:05:29

I can't let you chat. What's your answer?

0:05:290:05:31

Things that have been downgraded?

0:05:310:05:33

Well done, Luke. They are things

0:05:330:05:35

that have been downgraded.

0:05:350:05:36

What can you tell me about the clues you're looking at?

0:05:360:05:39

I don't know what the first one means.

0:05:390:05:41

Ffynnon Garw is in the film

0:05:410:05:42

The Englishman That Went Up A Hill

0:05:420:05:44

And Came Down A Mountain.

0:05:440:05:46

It's the mountain that was, yeah, downgraded to a hill.

0:05:460:05:48

That's exactly right.

0:05:480:05:49

Football League First Division is now the Championship?

0:05:490:05:53

Well, it's still the First Division,

0:05:530:05:55

but when the Premiership came in,

0:05:550:05:56

the First Division became, effectively, the Second Division.

0:05:560:05:59

Yep. Pluto downgraded obviously to a dwarf planet, and the UK credit

0:05:590:06:03

rating downgraded after the Brexit referendum, unfortunately.

0:06:030:06:06

Very well done. Cricketers, back

0:06:060:06:08

-to you for a choice.

-Water, please.

0:06:080:06:10

Water. OK, what is the connection between these clues?

0:06:100:06:13

Here's the first.

0:06:130:06:15

THEY CONFER

0:06:160:06:19

Next, please.

0:06:200:06:21

THEY CONFER

0:06:230:06:26

Next, please.

0:06:310:06:32

THEY CONFER

0:06:340:06:37

Next, please.

0:06:460:06:47

Two seconds.

0:06:520:06:55

Theme parks?

0:06:550:06:56

Good guess,

0:06:560:06:57

but not the answer, I'm afraid.

0:06:570:06:59

Inquisitors, you have the chance of a bonus point.

0:06:590:07:01

We think it's coat of many colours.

0:07:010:07:02

Coats of many colours is the answer.

0:07:020:07:05

Tell me about the clues.

0:07:050:07:07

-Joseph, of course, the multicoloured raincoat.

-Yep.

0:07:070:07:09

Colin Baker's Doctor Who wore a coat with lots of different colours

0:07:090:07:12

and patches and things on it.

0:07:120:07:14

-Dolly Parton...

-She is a song called Coat Of Many Colors.

-That's right.

0:07:140:07:17

And actually, there's a film, a biopic of her life,

0:07:170:07:19

that's called that as well.

0:07:190:07:20

The song is about growing up

0:07:200:07:22

very poor in Tennessee

0:07:220:07:24

and her mother stitches together

0:07:240:07:25

this coat out of bits of old rags,

0:07:250:07:27

and she's very proud of it.

0:07:270:07:28

And of course, the other girls at school are horrible.

0:07:280:07:30

And the Pied Piper of Hamelin.

0:07:300:07:32

I think in the Browning poem, the coat is two colours,

0:07:320:07:34

red and yellow, but he's

0:07:340:07:35

often described as wearing

0:07:350:07:36

a party-coloured coat,

0:07:360:07:38

a multicoloured coat.

0:07:380:07:39

So, well done, you get the bonus

0:07:390:07:40

and your own chance to choose.

0:07:400:07:41

-Eye of Horus.

-One of them's Music.

-OK, Eye of Horus, please.

0:07:410:07:44

JINGLE The Eye of Horus. Aha!

0:07:440:07:46

The music question.

0:07:460:07:47

So you're going to be hearing your clues.

0:07:470:07:48

What do they have in common? First one coming in now.

0:07:480:07:52

# No more poison

0:07:520:07:53

# Killing my emotion

0:07:530:07:55

# I will not be frozen... #

0:07:550:07:57

-That's Remedy.

-# Dancing is my remedy, remedy... #

0:07:570:08:00

Next one, please.

0:08:000:08:01

# Tweedle, Tweedle, Tweedledee. #

0:08:010:08:04

That's...

0:08:040:08:05

THEY CONFER

0:08:050:08:07

-It could be.

-# I'm as happy as could be... #

0:08:070:08:09

If that Little Jimmy Osmond? It could be "little".

0:08:090:08:12

-# Jiminy Cricket... #

-Next one. One more, please.

0:08:120:08:14

# Now, I woke up this morning, Lucille was not in sight... #

0:08:140:08:18

It is. That's Little Richard.

0:08:180:08:20

-Little.

-Is the connection.

0:08:200:08:22

What did we hear?

0:08:220:08:24

Little Boots and Remedy for the first one.

0:08:240:08:26

And was it Tweedledum and Tweedledee?

0:08:260:08:28

It's just Tweedledee, yes,

0:08:280:08:30

the follow-up to Long Haired Lover From Liverpool.

0:08:300:08:32

Yeah, Little Jimmy Osmond.

0:08:320:08:33

And the third one was Little Richard, Lucille.

0:08:330:08:35

That's absolute right,

0:08:350:08:37

Little Richard.

0:08:370:08:38

You didn't need to hear Little Eva,

0:08:380:08:39

which would've been the last clue.

0:08:390:08:40

-Very well done. How many of the Osmonds can you name?

-Um...

0:08:400:08:45

-Jimmy.

-Meryl.

-Donny. Meryl.

0:08:450:08:48

-Marie.

-I think there's a Wayne.

0:08:480:08:50

-Is there a Wayne?

-There's a Wayne.

0:08:500:08:52

A Jay and an Alan.

0:08:520:08:53

Who remembers Alan Osmond

0:08:530:08:55

these days? And Richard Osmond, of course, the big one.

0:08:550:08:57

Yeah, let's not forget Richard.

0:08:570:09:00

Cricketers, back to you for

0:09:000:09:01

the last question of the round,

0:09:010:09:02

the Two Reeds.

0:09:020:09:03

What is the connection between these two clues? Here's the first.

0:09:030:09:07

THEY CONFER

0:09:090:09:12

Yeah. Next.

0:09:130:09:15

THEY CONFER

0:09:200:09:23

Next, please.

0:09:260:09:28

THEY CONFER

0:09:300:09:34

Next, please.

0:09:380:09:39

Two seconds.

0:09:440:09:45

-Yeah.

-Parts of New York?

0:09:470:09:48

They are all neighbourhoods

0:09:480:09:50

in New York, yes.

0:09:500:09:51

Dumbo and Nolita are a bit more obscure,

0:09:510:09:53

but well spotted at the end.

0:09:530:09:54

Neighbourhoods of New York.

0:09:540:09:55

That means, at the end of round one...

0:09:550:09:58

So, a huge start for the Inquisitors,

0:10:040:10:06

and we're moving on to the sequences round.

0:10:060:10:08

You'll be going first again.

0:10:080:10:10

-What hieroglyph would you like?

-Twisted Flax, please.

-Twisted Flax.

0:10:100:10:14

OK, you'll be seeing the first in a sequence of four clues.

0:10:140:10:17

I want to know what is the fourth one. Your time starts now.

0:10:170:10:21

567.

0:10:230:10:25

That's horse racing.

0:10:260:10:28

THEY CONFER

0:10:280:10:30

Go next? Next, please.

0:10:300:10:32

THEY CONFER

0:10:340:10:37

Must be.

0:10:380:10:40

Oh!

0:10:430:10:45

So, it's... Oh, I know what the c...

0:10:450:10:47

It's a word that's got "seven" in the middle.

0:10:470:10:49

Oh, OK.

0:10:500:10:51

875. Yeah. Quick.

0:10:520:10:55

What's the word?

0:10:560:10:57

Two seconds.

0:11:000:11:01

So it's a word that's got the word "seven" in the middle.

0:11:010:11:05

I'm trying to think of what it might be.

0:11:050:11:06

I need to hear an answer

0:11:060:11:08

that goes with the other clues.

0:11:080:11:10

-SHE SIGHS

-Esteven.

0:11:100:11:12

Not the answer, I'm afraid.

0:11:120:11:13

So, Cricketers, I'm going to show

0:11:130:11:15

you the third in the sequence,

0:11:150:11:16

and you've got the chance of a bonus.

0:11:160:11:18

Um...

0:11:180:11:20

-I can't give you long.

-No.

0:11:200:11:22

Nope, that's it. Now, you were on the right track.

0:11:220:11:24

All you had to do was say,

0:11:240:11:25

for example,

0:11:250:11:27

70, but I need the numbers.

0:11:270:11:28

One, two, three, four, five.

0:11:280:11:30

Because key to this sequence is that the numbers underneath

0:11:300:11:34

indicate where in the word the number appears.

0:11:340:11:37

So if you look above 567, you will see that letters five,

0:11:370:11:40

-six, seven of Cheltenham...

-Oh!

0:11:400:11:42

-..are T, E, N, spelling "ten".

-Yeah.

0:11:420:11:44

Letters three, four, five, six of puniness spell nine.

0:11:440:11:48

Three, four, five, six, seven,

0:11:480:11:49

E, I, G, H, T.

0:11:490:11:51

So I need a word with "seven" in it

0:11:510:11:53

and where those letters appear,

0:11:530:11:55

spelled out numerically.

0:11:550:11:57

A tricky one. No bonus for you,

0:11:570:11:58

Cricketers, but you may choose a question. What would you like?

0:11:580:12:01

My daughter said Lion, so Lion, please.

0:12:010:12:03

Lion, OK.

0:12:030:12:04

-Let's see if you will be grateful for that advice.

-Yes.

0:12:040:12:07

What is the fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.

0:12:070:12:09

THEY CONFER

0:12:120:12:13

Next, please.

0:12:130:12:15

Larry Page, wasn't he the co-founder of...Google, or something?

0:12:170:12:21

Yeah, something Page.

0:12:210:12:23

-Sundar, wasn't he...?

-He founded something... He...

0:12:230:12:26

-Shall we go for the next one in the sequence?

-Yeah.

0:12:280:12:30

Next, please.

0:12:300:12:31

It could be Zuckerberg...?

0:12:330:12:35

THEY CONFER

0:12:370:12:40

Co-founder of...

0:12:400:12:42

BUZZ

0:12:450:12:47

Zuckerberg.

0:12:470:12:48

Not the answer, I'm afraid.

0:12:480:12:49

So, a bonus chance for you, Inquisitors.

0:12:490:12:52

It's not that...

0:12:520:12:53

Not a chance for a chat.

0:12:530:12:55

Elon Musk?

0:12:550:12:56

Not it either.

0:12:560:12:57

What were you thinking the sequence was?

0:12:570:12:59

Sort of internet or technological billionaires,

0:12:590:13:02

going up in size?

0:13:020:13:04

It's more specific than that.

0:13:040:13:06

All these people have been CEO of Google.

0:13:060:13:09

Oh.

0:13:090:13:10

And we're going backwards

0:13:100:13:11

from the current CEO,

0:13:110:13:13

back towards the original one -

0:13:130:13:14

-Larry Page, who held the position twice. ALL:

-Oh!

0:13:140:13:17

So simply Larry Page again.

0:13:170:13:19

That's what I wanted to hear.

0:13:190:13:21

Your chance, now, Inquisitors,

0:13:210:13:23

to make a choice.

0:13:230:13:24

Eye of Horus, please.

0:13:240:13:25

The Eye of Horus. OK.

0:13:250:13:26

What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:13:260:13:28

Here's the first.

0:13:280:13:29

-Le chagrin.

-Le chagrin.

0:13:300:13:32

OK, that's...pain?

0:13:320:13:34

Is it a song name?

0:13:350:13:37

-Sounds like, a bit Edith Piaf-y, or something.

-Could be.

0:13:370:13:40

Next, please.

0:13:400:13:41

-La joie...

-La joie...

0:13:410:13:43

Joy.

0:13:460:13:47

Do we go next?

0:13:470:13:49

-What do you think the third one would be?

-Don't know.

0:13:490:13:52

Next one, please.

0:13:520:13:53

-Une fille...

-Oh! Um...

0:13:540:13:57

BUZZ

0:13:570:13:58

-Is it not...?

-Un garcon?

0:13:580:14:00

Is the right answer, well done.

0:14:000:14:02

And why is that?

0:14:020:14:03

This is one for sorrow, one for joy, one for a girl, three for...

0:14:030:14:06

One for sorrow, two for joy,

0:14:060:14:07

three for a girl, four for a boy, in French.

0:14:070:14:09

That's right, it is the magpie rhyme

0:14:090:14:11

translated into French.

0:14:110:14:13

It's not the French version, which goes differently,

0:14:130:14:15

but it's ours translated.

0:14:150:14:16

And it's interesting,

0:14:160:14:18

le chagrin, there, is what they call a false friend.

0:14:180:14:20

When you say chagrin in English,

0:14:200:14:22

it means something else.

0:14:220:14:23

In French, sorrow.

0:14:230:14:24

Most people know it up to 7, don't they?

0:14:240:14:26

Five for silver, six for gold, seven for a secret never to be told.

0:14:260:14:29

-Do you know what eight magpies mean?

-No.

0:14:290:14:32

A wish. Eight for a wish, nine for a kiss,

0:14:320:14:34

ten for a marriage never to be old.

0:14:340:14:37

-Oh.

-That's nice, isn't it?

-OK.

0:14:370:14:38

Although that could also sound sinister,

0:14:380:14:40

depending on how you interpret it. THEY LAUGH

0:14:400:14:42

Well spotted.

0:14:420:14:43

Back to you, Cricketers, for a choice.

0:14:430:14:45

-Two Reeds, please.

-Two Reeds, OK.

0:14:450:14:47

These are going to be picture clues.

0:14:470:14:49

What sort of thing would you expect

0:14:490:14:50

to see in the fourth picture?

0:14:500:14:52

Time starts now.

0:14:520:14:53

THEY CONFER

0:14:550:14:59

Next, please.

0:15:000:15:01

That's Ding Junhui.

0:15:030:15:06

So what would it be...?

0:15:060:15:07

Is it a name? Same name?

0:15:070:15:10

Next, please.

0:15:120:15:14

-That's Dong. Something D...

-Ding, dong.

0:15:170:15:19

Chinese dong. Vietnamese dong.

0:15:190:15:22

Which means...

0:15:220:15:24

-Ding, dong, so...

-Dung.

0:15:240:15:26

BUZZ

0:15:260:15:27

Pile of dung?

0:15:270:15:29

Would be lovely.

0:15:290:15:31

We went for a dung beetle,

0:15:310:15:32

cos we thought people

0:15:320:15:33

would be happier to see it,

0:15:330:15:34

but very well done, I will give you the points.

0:15:340:15:36

What is this sequence?

0:15:360:15:37

Dung, then dong for currency, then Ding...?

0:15:370:15:41

Ding Junhui.

0:15:410:15:43

And then, I presume she's...

0:15:430:15:44

The lady's Deng?

0:15:440:15:45

It's Wendi Deng,

0:15:450:15:47

the former wife of Rupert Murdoch.

0:15:470:15:48

Oh.

0:15:480:15:49

He's now married to Jerry Hall.

0:15:490:15:52

But he was previously married to Wendi Deng.

0:15:520:15:55

The sequence is Deng, Ding, dong,

0:15:550:15:57

a bell-like sequence.

0:15:570:15:58

I wanted to hear dung,

0:15:580:15:59

because we're going through the vowels,

0:15:590:16:01

anything representing dung. Well done.

0:16:010:16:03

Inquisitors, what would you like?

0:16:030:16:05

-Water, please.

-Water. OK.

0:16:050:16:07

What would come fourth in this sequence?

0:16:070:16:09

Here's the first.

0:16:090:16:10

-Calida.

-Calida.

0:16:120:16:13

-I think there's a Costa Calida in Spain.

-OK.

0:16:130:16:15

-So it could be working the way up the coast.

-OK.

0:16:150:16:18

-Want the next one?

-Yeah.

-Next one, please.

0:16:180:16:21

Almeria Costa, Almeria... Then you have Costa Calida,

0:16:220:16:25

Costa Almeria, Costa Blanca, Costa Brava.

0:16:250:16:28

I think it's Costa Brava.

0:16:280:16:29

Shall we go for that?

0:16:290:16:31

-I think we should.

-BUZZ

0:16:310:16:32

Brava.

0:16:320:16:33

-Not the answer, I'm afraid.

-Oh!

0:16:330:16:35

So I'm going to show

0:16:350:16:36

the third in the sequence to the Cricketers

0:16:360:16:38

for a possible bonus point.

0:16:380:16:39

Anyone got any idea?

0:16:390:16:41

No.

0:16:410:16:43

I can't give you long.

0:16:430:16:44

-No idea.

-No idea, sorry.

0:16:440:16:45

No idea.

0:16:450:16:47

Now, you look at the third one, do you want have another go?

0:16:470:16:49

-Blanca.

-No points, of course.

0:16:490:16:51

-The answer is Del Sol.

-Oh!

0:16:510:16:54

Oh, I got it the wrong way round!

0:16:540:16:55

I think you know it's the Spanish Costas,

0:16:550:16:57

but we're going south.

0:16:570:16:59

I thought the Costa Calida was at the bottom,

0:16:590:17:01

and I was working my way up.

0:17:010:17:02

I used to work in Almeria,

0:17:020:17:04

so I was going that way rather than that way.

0:17:040:17:06

I did think you had an impressive accent

0:17:060:17:07

as you went through the possibilities.

0:17:070:17:09

But, yes, heading south.

0:17:090:17:11

Who doesn't do that when they go to Spain?

0:17:110:17:12

So, heading south, the answer would be Del Sol.

0:17:120:17:15

-Sorry.

-Unlucky.

0:17:150:17:16

No bonus point, then, Cricketers,

0:17:160:17:17

but you may have the last question of the round,

0:17:170:17:19

the Horned Viper.

0:17:190:17:20

What is the fourth in this sequence?

0:17:200:17:22

Here's the first.

0:17:220:17:23

Astronauts...?

0:17:260:17:28

Next, please.

0:17:280:17:30

-Anil Kumble.

-Shane Warne...

0:17:310:17:34

-Muttiah Muralitharan?

-Yeah.

0:17:340:17:36

BUZZ

0:17:360:17:37

Muttiah.

0:17:370:17:38

Is the right answer for three points.

0:17:380:17:40

And I don't think you'll have trouble

0:17:400:17:42

explaining this sequence to the viewers.

0:17:420:17:44

Yeah, it's wicket takers in Test match cricket, going by points.

0:17:440:17:48

Glenn McGrath took about 500 wickets,

0:17:480:17:50

Anil Kumble, about 600,

0:17:500:17:52

Shane Warne, 700,

0:17:520:17:54

Muttiah Muralitharan, 800.

0:17:540:17:56

That is absolutely right.

0:17:560:17:58

They are leading Test cricket wicket takers.

0:17:580:18:00

Yes, 708 for Shane Warne,

0:18:000:18:02

and on the top,

0:18:020:18:03

800 for Muttiah Muralitharan.

0:18:030:18:04

Well done.

0:18:040:18:06

A cricket sequence, that was a nice treat,

0:18:060:18:08

wasn't it? That was absolutely the bag of chocolate coins

0:18:080:18:10

in the bottom of the stocking for you,

0:18:100:18:12

at the end of round two.

0:18:120:18:13

And that means the Cricketers have eight points,

0:18:130:18:16

the Inquisitors have 12.

0:18:160:18:18

Time now for the Connecting Wall, and Cricketers,

0:18:200:18:22

it's your turn to go first this time, so you have a choice.

0:18:220:18:25

Lion or Water?

0:18:250:18:26

Lion, please.

0:18:260:18:28

Most people do choose the Lion Wall, I think

0:18:280:18:30

they think it sounds sort of powerful. And maybe it is.

0:18:300:18:32

You have 2.5 minutes to solve it,

0:18:320:18:35

starting now.

0:18:350:18:37

Staccato is music.

0:18:380:18:40

Mr Whippy, Mr Kipling, Mr Sheen...

0:18:400:18:42

Mr Muscle.

0:18:420:18:43

OK.

0:18:450:18:47

Michael Ball, Michael Bolton...

0:18:470:18:49

Michael Palin, Michael Portillo.

0:18:490:18:50

Yeah, go...

0:18:520:18:53

What's the other one?

0:18:530:18:54

-Bay.

-Michael Bay. Yes.

0:18:540:18:56

That's got to be it, hasn't it?

0:18:570:18:59

-Yeah.

-Oh, it's got to be Portillo.

0:18:590:19:01

-OK.

-OK.

0:19:010:19:02

Three lives, now.

0:19:020:19:04

Ice age... Ice hockey, ice sheet, ice lolly.

0:19:040:19:06

-Ice floe.

-Ice floe.

-Ice sheet...

0:19:060:19:08

Forked...tongue...

0:19:080:19:10

Sheet music?

0:19:100:19:11

Staccato is a musical term.

0:19:110:19:13

Can you play hockey... Can you play musically...?

0:19:150:19:17

What else is there? We've got age...

0:19:170:19:19

Forked tongue...

0:19:200:19:21

Has to be...

0:19:230:19:24

Why is it floe?

0:19:240:19:26

Well, you get an ice floe and an ice sheet.

0:19:260:19:28

Is there any word that goes with staccato?

0:19:290:19:31

Staccato...

0:19:320:19:34

What else have we got in there, fork?

0:19:360:19:39

Sheet...

0:19:400:19:42

Ice lolly, ice hockey...

0:19:420:19:44

Fork, what else is forked?

0:19:440:19:46

HE SIGHS

0:19:480:19:49

Floe?

0:19:490:19:50

What else could staccato be?

0:19:510:19:53

-Musical is the only thing I know with staccato.

-Ball...

0:19:550:19:58

-Anything that doesn't...

-Yeah.

0:19:580:20:00

What else could it be?

0:20:020:20:04

We'll be able to go for...

0:20:040:20:06

Ball...

0:20:080:20:09

You've got a minute left.

0:20:090:20:10

Are we going with these?

0:20:120:20:15

These...

0:20:150:20:16

Age... Do you want to try...? What's the most likely?

0:20:200:20:23

-Well, floe...

-Floe has got to be ice.

0:20:230:20:25

You've solved the Wall! Very well done.

0:20:260:20:28

So that's four points for the groups.

0:20:280:20:30

And what about the connections?

0:20:300:20:31

We'll start with the blue group,

0:20:310:20:33

Whippy, Muscle, Kipling, Sheen.

0:20:330:20:35

Products with Mr in front of them.

0:20:350:20:37

Mr Whippy, Mr Muscle, Mr Kipling, Mr Sheen.

0:20:370:20:40

All brand names with Mr added.

0:20:400:20:42

Well done. And the green group?

0:20:420:20:44

Bolton, Bay, Portillo, Palin.

0:20:440:20:46

Michaels?

0:20:460:20:48

In theory, they're all Michaels.

0:20:480:20:50

I mean, one of them, clearly, a giant among pygmies.

0:20:500:20:52

And the next group.

0:20:520:20:54

Hockey, age, lolly, floe.

0:20:540:20:56

Ice precedes them.

0:20:560:20:58

Ice hockey, ice age, ice lolly, ice floe.

0:20:580:21:02

That's exactly right.

0:21:020:21:03

And the final group?

0:21:030:21:04

Ball, staccato, sheet, forked.

0:21:040:21:08

-They're types of lightning!

-Lightning.

0:21:080:21:10

I was going to say, you think you don't know this, but you do.

0:21:100:21:12

Just at the same time as...

0:21:120:21:14

It's lightning.

0:21:140:21:15

Staccato, sheet, forked lightning.

0:21:150:21:17

The red herring there, ball, also a Michael,

0:21:170:21:19

but ball lightning is apparently, I've never seen it,

0:21:190:21:22

a sort of luminous ball of lightning that you get

0:21:220:21:24

during a thunderstorm, literally a ball of light.

0:21:240:21:27

Very well done. So that is four more points for the connections,

0:21:270:21:30

a bonus of two for getting it all right,

0:21:300:21:32

that is the maximum of ten.

0:21:320:21:34

Time to bring in their opponents now, the Inquisitors,

0:21:340:21:36

and give them the Water Wall.

0:21:360:21:38

See what they can do about solving it.

0:21:380:21:40

You have 2.5 minutes to solve this wall, starting now.

0:21:400:21:44

-Knoxville, Johnny Knoxville.

-Johnny... Johnny Vegas.

0:21:460:21:49

-Johnny Morris.

-Yeah.

0:21:490:21:51

Johnny... Hmm.

0:21:510:21:53

-Johnny Ball? Shall we try those?

-Go on.

0:21:530:21:55

I'd say, Vegas, Knoxville.

0:21:550:21:57

OK. Um...

0:21:570:21:59

-Pucker up, cough up...

-Yeah.

0:21:590:22:01

Measure up. Wrap up, tap up?

0:22:010:22:03

-Wrap up. Go for wrap up.

-Wrap up.

0:22:030:22:05

Butter up, as well, we've got.

0:22:050:22:07

-So, measure up... Set up...

-Yeah.

0:22:070:22:10

Cough up?

0:22:100:22:11

No.

0:22:110:22:12

Pucker up, cough up, wrap up, set up?

0:22:120:22:17

-Shaker, shot...

-Shaker, shot, muddler... Measure?

0:22:170:22:21

-Brilliant.

-So we've got belly up as well.

0:22:210:22:23

Three lives now, plenty of time.

0:22:230:22:25

So we've got up, we've got lots of ups.

0:22:250:22:27

Pucker, wrap, belly, tap, cough, set, they're all...

0:22:270:22:30

-In fact, lots of these are ups.

-Yeah.

0:22:300:22:33

Barn door...?

0:22:330:22:35

Belly, pork...

0:22:390:22:40

Jet set.

0:22:420:22:44

I don't know what else...

0:22:510:22:53

Puck...

0:22:530:22:54

But, set, bar...

0:22:540:22:56

Butter...

0:22:590:23:00

Wrap...

0:23:000:23:02

Wrap...

0:23:020:23:03

Cough sweet, cough...

0:23:070:23:09

Belly...

0:23:090:23:10

-Going to have to start going for the ups, though.

-Yeah.

0:23:120:23:15

-So what do you think? Pucker?

-You've got a minute left.

0:23:150:23:17

-Go for wrap.

-Wrap.

0:23:190:23:21

Let's go for cough, butter, belly, pucker.

0:23:230:23:25

OK. Cough, butter, belly, pucker.

0:23:260:23:30

No, that's one life gone.

0:23:300:23:32

-Barnstorming...

-Barnstorm, set...

0:23:320:23:35

Square... Cough, tap...

0:23:350:23:38

-I think cough has got to be one of the ups.

-Ups. Cough...

0:23:380:23:41

-And I think pucker, as well.

-Pucker.

0:23:410:23:44

-Have we done butter belly?

-Yeah, we did butter belly.

0:23:460:23:49

OK, let's go.

0:23:490:23:50

-No, one life left.

-One life.

0:23:500:23:51

-One more.

-20 seconds.

0:23:510:23:54

Butter up, pucker up...

0:23:540:23:56

Not wrap.

0:23:560:23:57

Not wrap. Pucker up, cough up...

0:23:570:23:59

Tap up, set up?

0:24:000:24:02

Belly up?

0:24:020:24:04

-No, that's it.

-No, that's your third life,

0:24:050:24:07

and the Wall has frozen, but you found two groups

0:24:070:24:09

and I'll give you more points if you can tell me the connections.

0:24:090:24:12

Knoxville, Vegas, Morris, Ball.

0:24:120:24:14

-They're all famous people called Johnny.

-They are TV Johnnies.

0:24:140:24:17

And the green group, measure, shaker, muddler, shot?

0:24:170:24:21

They're connected with cocktails.

0:24:210:24:22

They're used in bartending terminology.

0:24:220:24:24

And you can still get points for the connections

0:24:240:24:26

in the groups you didn't find. So let's resolve the wall.

0:24:260:24:29

There you go.

0:24:290:24:30

Butter, pucker, cough, wrap?

0:24:300:24:33

They can all be followed by the word up.

0:24:330:24:35

They can. Unfortunately, you got to the point

0:24:350:24:37

-where almost every word on the wall could.

-Yeah.

0:24:370:24:40

And what you didn't find was that last group, set, belly, barn, tap.

0:24:400:24:44

Dances? Dances.

0:24:440:24:45

They are dances.

0:24:450:24:47

Set dancing, a sort of Irish folk dancing,

0:24:470:24:50

and you'll know, of course, belly dance, barn dance, tap dance.

0:24:500:24:52

-Yeah, tap dance.

-They are dances.

0:24:520:24:54

So, two points for the groups and all four connections,

0:24:540:24:57

that is a total of six.

0:24:570:24:59

Let's have a look at the scores going into the final round.

0:24:590:25:02

So, we are absolutely even going into the missing vowels round.

0:25:080:25:12

Teams, you'll know this is the round where we take well-known names,

0:25:120:25:15

phrases and sayings, take out the vowels,

0:25:150:25:17

squidge up the consonants,

0:25:170:25:18

and I want to know, what are the disguised clues?

0:25:180:25:21

Points can be gained for the right answer

0:25:210:25:23

and lost for the wrong one, so buzz with care.

0:25:230:25:26

Fingers on buzzers, then.

0:25:260:25:28

I can tell you that the first group are all planes.

0:25:280:25:33

It's Toyota Prius.

0:26:500:26:52

Next group, films with transport in the title.

0:26:520:26:54

0:27:090:27:10

-Inquisitors.

-Oh. Uh...

0:27:140:27:15

No, you lose a point.

0:27:150:27:16

Cricketers, do you know?

0:27:160:27:18

-No.

-No?

0:27:180:27:19

It's The Boat That Rocked. Next category...

0:27:190:27:21

ROUND END MUSIC

0:27:210:27:23

But there's not going to be a next category,

0:27:250:27:28

because the bell has gone for the end of the quiz.

0:27:280:27:30

And I can reveal that, after a fearsome display in round four,

0:27:300:27:34

the winners, with 28 points, are

0:27:340:27:36

-the Inquisitors.

-God, well done, team.

0:27:360:27:38

And in second place, having got some of the most difficult ones,

0:27:380:27:41

with 21 points,

0:27:410:27:43

it's the Cricketers.

0:27:430:27:44

Very well done, both teams.

0:27:440:27:46

You are definitely through to the next round.

0:27:460:27:48

Cricketers, you may be among

0:27:480:27:49

our highest scoring losers.

0:27:490:27:51

Two teams will go through from this round even though

0:27:510:27:54

they didn't win their match, and you may be one of them, we don't know.

0:27:540:27:56

I hope we'll see you again.

0:27:560:27:58

What an exciting contest. Thank you for watching.

0:27:580:28:01

And before we go,

0:28:010:28:02

I'd like to apologise for what happened last week.

0:28:020:28:04

I thought the show was over and my microphone was off.

0:28:040:28:07

Obviously, I respect all contestants on this show as human beings,

0:28:070:28:11

and if I gave any impression otherwise, I'm truly sorry.

0:28:110:28:14

For me, phrases like, "Spread him on a cracker,"

0:28:140:28:17

"Buns that just won't quit,"

0:28:170:28:19

they're as innocent as, "Juice until the pips pop."

0:28:190:28:21

It's just words!

0:28:210:28:23

I'm glad I was able to clear that up.

0:28:230:28:25

Goodnight.
