Hello, and welcome to Only Connect, | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
the quiz that's become an institution. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
Which is handy, as it's where many of our contestants should probably be. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:30 | |
Because they're so clever! | 0:00:30 | 0:00:31 | |
Everyone knows it's a fine line. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
Tonight's teams are particularly clever | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
because they won their heats. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:37 | |
This is a quarter final, so we welcome again, on my right, | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |
Paul Steeples, a civil servant | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
who enjoys European travel and visiting art galleries, | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
William De Ath, | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
an Oxford maths graduate who enjoys trekking, skiing and scuba diving. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:52 | |
and their captain David Lea, | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
a modern languages graduate with a passion for all things Spanish. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:59 | |
All analysts of some description in their work, they are the Analysts. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
David, how are you feeling about the opposition? | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
Well, tougher questions, tougher opposition than the second round. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
But we'll see how we do. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
I think we're quietly confident. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
Let's take a look at that tough opposition. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
Tonight you play, on my left, | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
Simon Jelley, Oxford graduate, | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
and keen amateur hockey player, | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
John Loveluck, a consultant engineer | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
with a love of cycling, tennis and fine dining. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
And their captain Bruce Lin, | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
a clean technology engineer and keen linguist, who hails from Toronto. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:35 | |
They all specialise in providing technical solutions to complex problems. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:39 | |
They are the Technologists. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
Bruce, you beat the joggers in your heat. How did that go? | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
We knew we were in for a tough fight after the first two rounds, | 0:01:44 | 0:01:48 | |
but the team together did really well on the wall, | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
and I was really happy. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
My background notes originally described you as "an accomplished linguist", | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
and someone's crossed it out and written "geek". | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
I'm interested in languages, and I speak a number quite poorly. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
Let's see if you can speak the language of quiz. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
If you're bilingual in that at home, | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
later on, you'll be able to play the connecting wall live | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
along with the teams, if you've got a computer. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
But now, we're going to play Round One. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
What's the connection between four apparently random clues? | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
You'll remember that. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
Technologists, you won the toss, you go first. Choose a question. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
Could we start with the lion? | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
Your first clue of the Quarter Final is coming up now. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
It rings some vague bell, but no. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
Er, next, please. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
Jelly Babies? | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
Dr... | 0:02:45 | 0:02:46 | |
No... Oh, there was recently the Jellyatrics. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:54 | |
Their anniversary, but I don't know how old... | 0:02:54 | 0:02:58 | |
Er, next, please. | 0:02:58 | 0:02:59 | |
Mandrakes, what's that? | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
-Mandrakes. -They're plants, right? | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
Yeah, they're plant roots. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:06 | |
Next, please. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:07 | |
Five seconds. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
BELL | 0:03:11 | 0:03:12 | |
-John, do you want to take this one? -No. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
No, I'll come up with a clue. Um... | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
Well, if nobody wants to take it, I'm going to see if your opponents do. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:22 | |
-Possible bonus for you, Analysts. -Screaming. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
Screaming is the answer. Could you explain it? | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
David Sutch was Screaming Lord Sutch, | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
er, mandrakes, in mythology, scream when you pluck them out the ground, | 0:03:30 | 0:03:37 | |
um, and the other two, I'm nowhere on. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
The Wilhelm Scream is a sound effect in films. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:44 | |
Private Wilhelm was a character in a film called Distant Drums, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
and his screaming was used as a sound effect later on. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
Jelly Babies, there's an experiment, screaming Jelly Babies. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
It's to do with the energy in food. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
Jelly Babies make a sort of a screaming noise | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
if you apply heat and oxygen to them. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
But well done, screaming is correct. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
Analysts, choose your own question. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
Two reeds, please. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:07 | |
That's the music question. William, you look delighted(!) | 0:04:07 | 0:04:12 | |
I'm ecstatic(!) | 0:04:12 | 0:04:13 | |
I hope you enjoy it. The first clue is coming in. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
# Went on the road When I was eight years old | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
# When I turned 15 I was stealing the show | 0:04:19 | 0:04:21 | |
# Money to burn And the girls were pretty | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
# It didn't take me long to learn That I was born to boogie | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
Next, please. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:29 | |
# It had to be you | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
# It had to be you | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
Next, please. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:36 | |
-# Who can make a sunrise? -Who can make a sunrise? | 0:04:36 | 0:04:39 | |
-# Sprinkle it with dew? -Sprinkle it with dew? | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
# Cover it with chocolate And a miracle or two? | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
Next, please. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:47 | |
# There's something strange | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
# In your neighbourhood | 0:04:49 | 0:04:50 | |
Five seconds. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
-# Who you gonna call? -Ghostbusters! | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
Two seconds. BELL | 0:04:54 | 0:04:56 | |
Songs that are film titles. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:59 | |
They are not songs that are film titles. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:01 | |
So Technologists, chance of a bonus. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
Are they related by candy? | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
No, they're not. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:08 | |
What are you thinking? | 0:05:08 | 0:05:09 | |
I thought I heard "the candyman can" | 0:05:09 | 0:05:11 | |
and there's a marshmallow man in Ghostbusters. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
Oh, yeah, that's nice. You did hear The Candyman, Sammy Davis Jr, | 0:05:14 | 0:05:18 | |
you heard the theme from Ghostbusters | 0:05:18 | 0:05:20 | |
performed by Ray Parker Jr, | 0:05:20 | 0:05:21 | |
Oh! | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
You heard the man who definitely wants to marry me, | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
it's only him who doesn't know it, Harry Connick Jr. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
And Hank Williams Jr, Born To Boogie. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
They are all artists with Jr in their names. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
So no points there. Technologists, your turn. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
Water. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:38 | |
Water, OK, here's your first clue coming up. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:40 | |
Rope. We don't know. Next. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:45 | |
Theme parks? | 0:05:50 | 0:05:52 | |
Um, things that are red? I think we need another one. Next. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:56 | |
TV show? Do you know it? | 0:05:59 | 0:06:01 | |
-No idea at all. -Do you know it? Next. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:03 | |
-It's, like, a film with... -Oh, right. -Ten seconds. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:13 | |
Is it all, sort of, real time? | 0:06:13 | 0:06:15 | |
-OK, yeah, yeah. -BELL | 0:06:15 | 0:06:16 | |
Er, we think they're things | 0:06:16 | 0:06:18 | |
that happen in real time. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
There you go. They are films and TV shows that unfold in real time. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:24 | |
Rope, Alfred Hitchcock, a real-time movie, | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
Phone Booth, did you know that one? | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
-I've seen trailers. -Is it a thriller? -A phone booth in New York. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:32 | |
Quite recent, Colin Farrell. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:34 | |
Roger And Val Have Just Got In, BBC series, Dawn French, Alfred Molina. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:39 | |
The half hour after a couple got home. And 24, the TV show. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
They all unfold in real time. Well done. Analysts, over to you. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
Twisted flax, please. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:47 | |
All right. These are picture clues. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
Here's the first one. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:51 | |
-OK, calendar. -Next. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
Don't they have special names, those green wellies? | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Dunno. OK, next, please. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
Cowpat. Some dung. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:13 | |
Next, please. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:21 | |
Ten seconds. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
Three seconds. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:29 | |
BELL | 0:07:31 | 0:07:32 | |
No, you're out of time. Bonus chance, Technologists. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |
Er, they're all pie-related? | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
The second clue... | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
I suppose there's a British delicacy called the Wellington pie? | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
Oh, you've eaten my cooking. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
No, these are all things that are thrown in world championships. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:51 | |
There is a mobile phone-throwing competition annually in Finland, | 0:07:51 | 0:07:55 | |
Wellington boots since 1992, a Wellington boot-throwing contest. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:59 | |
Cow chips, they are called. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:01 | |
There is a championship of cow chip throwing in Oklahoma. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:05 | |
I don't know, I'm afraid to tell you the name of the town. It is Beaver. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:09 | |
Custard pies. There's a custard pie throwing contest in Kent annually. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:14 | |
They can all be thrown in championships. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:16 | |
Technologists, please choose a question. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:18 | |
Horned viper. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:20 | |
OK, here's the first clue coming up. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
CONFER IN WHISPERS | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
Next, please. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:32 | |
-Scotch Snap. -What is that? | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
Oh, these are, iambs. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:46 | |
As in iambic pentameter. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
How many are in that? Der-der der-der der-der der-der. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
-Iambic pentameter. -Ten seconds. -Next. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
It's dot-dash, dot-dash. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
OK, short and long. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:00 | |
BELL | 0:09:00 | 0:09:01 | |
We think it's things which are short and then long. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:04 | |
Just in the nick of time. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:06 | |
Things with a short-long rhythm. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:08 | |
Cardiac cycle, the heartbeat, du-dum. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:10 | |
Scotch Snap, in Scottish dancing it's a dotted rhythm note. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:14 | |
Iamb, that's a short syllable, long syllable in poetry. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
And the 'A' in Morse Code, dot-dash. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
Things with a short-long rhythm. Well done. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
Back to you, Analysts, for the Eye of Horus. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:24 | |
What is the connection here? Time starts now. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:28 | |
Was that a constituency that... | 0:09:30 | 0:09:32 | |
One of the MPs... | 0:09:32 | 0:09:33 | |
It was, yeah. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
It was the former constituency. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:37 | |
Next, please. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
Um, triangles. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:46 | |
Yeah. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:47 | |
Slave triangle. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:49 | |
BELL | 0:09:49 | 0:09:50 | |
Um, they're all things that are done in triangles. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:55 | |
Yes, they are, you're absolutely right. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:57 | |
You'll see the next two clues now. | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
Can you tell me anything about these? | 0:09:59 | 0:10:02 | |
Wakefield, Morley and Rothwell is the rhubarb triangle. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
That's it. The area where Yorkshire forced rhubarb is grown. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:08 | |
Slaves, molasses and rum was the basis of triangle trade. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:11 | |
That's right, between New England, Africa and the West Indies. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:15 | |
Husband, wife and mistress is a... | 0:10:15 | 0:10:17 | |
-Eternal triangle. -Bizarre love triangle. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
Um, and oxygen, fuel and heat is the fire triangle. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:25 | |
Together, that is the fire triangle. Well done. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
That means, at the end of a tough Quarter Final Round One, | 0:10:27 | 0:10:30 | |
the Technologists have two points, but the Analysts are ahead with four. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:35 | |
Things will not get easier in Round Two, | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
because now the teams must first work out the connection, | 0:10:39 | 0:10:43 | |
then tell me what comes fourth in a sequence. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
You see a maximum of three clues before answering. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:48 | |
Technologists, you're first again. | 0:10:48 | 0:10:51 | |
Please choose a hieroglyph. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:52 | |
Twisted flax. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
First in the sequence coming up. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
What is fourth? Time starts now. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
School system, things that want to be reformed. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:03 | |
Next. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:05 | |
WHISPERING | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
I don't think the number, 4,3,2,1... | 0:11:12 | 0:11:15 | |
Are they layers, like you can work your way up? | 0:11:15 | 0:11:17 | |
Next. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:19 | |
Seaports. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
They're the responsibilities of something. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
Um... | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
Running out of time. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:33 | |
Five seconds. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
BELL | 0:11:35 | 0:11:36 | |
Um, one, Immigration. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:41 | |
I'm afraid that's not the answer. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |
Analysts, please have a go for a bonus. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
1: Water system. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
That's not it either. What's your logic? | 0:11:49 | 0:11:52 | |
Levels of critical infrastructure. | 0:11:52 | 0:11:56 | |
What was your logic, Technologists? | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
Responsibilities of a ministry. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:00 | |
I see how you're thinking. But no. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:03 | |
This is a cultural question, a TV question. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:06 | |
They are themes from seasons of The Wire. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
The first season of The Wire was about the drug trade. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:13 | |
Following on from that, seaports, city government, the school system. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:17 | |
The Wire focused on those areas in Baltimore. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |
-Analysts, your turn to pick a question. -Water, please. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
First in the sequence coming up. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
What is fourth? Time starts now. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:27 | |
-Um, not sure. -Next, please. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
Could be Titans. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:43 | |
I don't know what... | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
OK. Next, please. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
Oh, moon. Um... | 0:12:49 | 0:12:51 | |
Moons of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, | 0:12:53 | 0:12:56 | |
moons of Neptune. | 0:12:56 | 0:12:58 | |
What's that? | 0:12:58 | 0:12:59 | |
Is it sea gods? | 0:12:59 | 0:13:01 | |
Five seconds. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:02 | |
Yeah, sea gods. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:03 | |
BELL | 0:13:03 | 0:13:05 | |
Um, m-mythological creatures from the sea. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:09 | |
Yeah, I'll take it. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
I heard you muttering "sea gods". | 0:13:11 | 0:13:13 | |
Sea deities. The naming conventions for moons of the various planets | 0:13:13 | 0:13:17 | |
going outwards from Jupiter to Neptune. Very good. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:20 | |
Back to you now, Technologists. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
Let's try two reeds. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:23 | |
Two reeds. Coming up. What's fourth? Time starts now. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:28 | |
Statant. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |
It's going to be heraldic themes, I think, maybe. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:34 | |
Let's go on, next. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
Next. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:38 | |
Sitting. Standing, sitting, lying. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:41 | |
Couchant, maybe. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:43 | |
-Let's get one more. -Yeah. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:44 | |
Next, please. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:46 | |
Wasn't couchant. We've had that. This is one I don't know. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
Supine. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:53 | |
-I don't think so. -I think it is. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:55 | |
OK, think of something else. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
Ten seconds. | 0:13:57 | 0:13:58 | |
Is it... | 0:14:02 | 0:14:03 | |
Sitting, lying... | 0:14:03 | 0:14:04 | |
-Three seconds. BELL -Supine. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
I'm afraid not. Possible bonus, Analysts. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
-Getting upwards. -Passant. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
No, that's not right either. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
It means supine, but the word in, | 0:14:14 | 0:14:16 | |
as I think you know, heraldic terms, "dormant". | 0:14:16 | 0:14:20 | |
It's the positions of a heraldic animal | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
as it goes to sleep, statant, standing on all four legs, | 0:14:23 | 0:14:26 | |
sejant, sitting, | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
couchant, and then dormant would be the lying down one. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
Unlucky. Analysts, your turn to choose. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
Lion, please. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:36 | |
Here's the first in the sequence. It's going to be a picture clue. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
And I want to know what's in the fourth picture. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
Here's the first. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:44 | |
Blackpool. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:47 | |
-Next. -Next, please. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:53 | |
-It's a thali. -Is it? | 0:14:55 | 0:14:56 | |
What's the one, things with a 'V'? Blackpool... | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
You going to have another? | 0:15:04 | 0:15:05 | |
Yeah, next, please. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:07 | |
That is the... It's not even Eastern Standard, is it? | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
-It's four hours behind. -Ten seconds. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:15 | |
Um... | 0:15:15 | 0:15:16 | |
I don't know. We have to get the fourth one. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
-Got to get the fourth one. -Three seconds. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
BELL | 0:15:22 | 0:15:23 | |
Um, things are minus four. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:27 | |
That's wrong for so many reasons. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
It's not the connection, and I want to know what the fourth one is. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:33 | |
So I'm going to the Technologists for a possible bonus point. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:37 | |
-Do we know anything about the map? -Pacific. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
-It's Pacific. -Yes, it is. I wasn't expecting that. Well done! Why? | 0:15:39 | 0:15:43 | |
They're the oceans in increasing size. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:46 | |
That's exactly what it is. Oceans by surface area. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
Southern in the first one, Keith Southern, footballer for Blackpool. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:53 | |
An Indian meal, you went too specific there. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
And not Eastern Standard Time, but Atlantic Standard Time. | 0:15:56 | 0:15:59 | |
Southern, Indian, Atlantic, getting bigger, Pacific. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
Well done, bonus point to you, Technologists, | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
and the chance to choose your own question. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:08 | |
Er, horned, er, slug, viper? | 0:16:08 | 0:16:10 | |
The horned viper. Well recognised. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:13 | |
Your first clue of the sequence is coming up. What's fourth? Starts now. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:18 | |
Oh, God. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:22 | |
Lord of the Rings. He's a king. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
I think it's the only one anyone knows, but we need more. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
Next, please. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:29 | |
These are people who are ring-bearers. | 0:16:29 | 0:16:33 | |
Smeagol, then Gollum. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:36 | |
Then it's got to be Frodo, right? | 0:16:36 | 0:16:38 | |
I think... I don't want to go for it. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:41 | |
-See if Gollum's there. -Yeah, next. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
Bilbo. It is Frodo. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:46 | |
-BELL -Er, Frodo Baggins. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
Ah, you should have come in after two clues. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
It is Frodo. They are the wearers of the one ring | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
in Tolkein's Lord Of The Rings. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
The next to wear the ring, Frodo. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:58 | |
Back to you, Analysts. | 0:16:58 | 0:16:59 | |
Only the Eye of Horus that remains. So your first clue is coming up now. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:05 | |
M40 London to Oxford and Birmingham. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:09 | |
Next. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:11 | |
And M1, is it clockwise round? | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
Or it could be going east. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:16 | |
Yeah, clockwise going east. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:18 | |
Depends if... | 0:17:18 | 0:17:19 | |
M1, M11. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
Then the one after that's going to be... | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
Is it, or is it something else? | 0:17:24 | 0:17:26 | |
Next, please. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:27 | |
Is it going to be M11? | 0:17:27 | 0:17:30 | |
It's going that way round. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:31 | |
BELL | 0:17:31 | 0:17:34 | |
The M11. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:36 | |
Excellent. It is the M11. Why is it? | 0:17:36 | 0:17:39 | |
Um, starting in the west and moving clockwise, | 0:17:39 | 0:17:44 | |
those are motorways on exit from London. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
-Basically, yes. They are motorways with junctions on the M25. -M25. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:51 | |
The orbital ring road. And it's going clockwise. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:53 | |
Next after the A1(M) would be the M11. Well done. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:57 | |
That means, at the end of Round Two, the Technologists have five points, | 0:17:57 | 0:18:02 | |
but the Analysts are ahead with eight. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
It's Connecting Wall time. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:07 | |
If you want to play along at the same time, | 0:18:07 | 0:18:10 | |
quickly, get a computer, quickly, hurry! Plug it in! | 0:18:10 | 0:18:13 | |
It's live online at the same time. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:15 | |
For you, though, Analysts, it will be on the screen. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:19 | |
So, please choose lion or water. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:22 | |
Lion, please, Victoria. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:24 | |
You have two and a half minutes | 0:18:24 | 0:18:26 | |
to solve this wall, starting now. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:29 | |
Um, got some plants. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:35 | |
Got some diseases. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
Plants and skin diseases. Impetigo, hives. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:45 | |
A hickey's a skin thing, isn't it? | 0:18:45 | 0:18:47 | |
Ringworm is as well, isn't it? | 0:18:47 | 0:18:49 | |
Yes. Eurgh. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:50 | |
No. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:54 | |
I don't know what purpura is. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:56 | |
Could be a plant. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:58 | |
Actually, hickey's more of a bite, isn't it? | 0:18:58 | 0:19:00 | |
I'd have gone for ringworm instead. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:02 | |
That'll do. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:04 | |
So we've got names. There's Atticus Finch. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
Yeah, there's a load of girls' names. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:13 | |
There's a load of plants. | 0:19:13 | 0:19:15 | |
Isn't the potato from some weird | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
family like the same as the bell... | 0:19:17 | 0:19:19 | |
Are they all in the same family? | 0:19:30 | 0:19:32 | |
I suspect they might be. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:34 | |
You've used one minute. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:35 | |
Oh, hang on. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:41 | |
-Yeah. -What? | 0:19:41 | 0:19:43 | |
I think they're all newspaper columns, aren't they? | 0:19:43 | 0:19:47 | |
Oh, yeah. Yes, yes. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:48 | |
Mini, Franky, Cassie and Effy. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:51 | |
Are they characters in something? | 0:19:51 | 0:19:53 | |
Er... | 0:19:53 | 0:19:55 | |
The Banana Splits? | 0:19:57 | 0:19:59 | |
No, no, not the Banana Splits. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:01 | |
I don't know this. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:02 | |
Not Josie And The Pussycats either. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:04 | |
Um... | 0:20:04 | 0:20:06 | |
Cassie, no. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
Those are all newspaper columns? | 0:20:11 | 0:20:14 | |
What... | 0:20:14 | 0:20:15 | |
Do you want to try them? | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
That's it. You've solved the wall. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
Very well done. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:23 | |
That's four points for those groups, | 0:20:23 | 0:20:25 | |
and there are bonus points for the connections. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:28 | |
So, purpura, ringworm, hives, impetigo. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:31 | |
Um, skin conditions. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:33 | |
Are they? | 0:20:33 | 0:20:34 | |
Yeah, well, I'll take it. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:35 | |
Skin discolourations, really. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
Things that cause the skin to be discoloured. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:40 | |
Next group, belladonna, potato, oleander, peony. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:44 | |
Um, extreme examples of plants from the same family. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:48 | |
That's not the answer, and I think... | 0:20:48 | 0:20:51 | |
I was lenient on the first one, and I really can't take that. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:55 | |
They're not from the same family. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:57 | |
They are poisonous. | 0:20:57 | 0:20:58 | |
Poisonous plants. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:00 | |
The potato's plant has toxins, | 0:21:00 | 0:21:01 | |
glycoalkoloids. All poisonous plants. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
Next group, Hickey, Atticus, Mandrake, Pandora. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:08 | |
Er, newspaper columns. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:10 | |
Can you give me any more? | 0:21:10 | 0:21:12 | |
-Gossip columns? -Um, yeah. Gossipy, Westminstery... | 0:21:12 | 0:21:16 | |
They're newspaper diary columns. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:18 | |
Atticus in the Sunday Times, | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
Hickey in the Daily Express, William Hickey before. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:22 | |
We saw mandrakes earlier in the quiz. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:24 | |
Mandrake is the Telegraph, and Pandora in the Independent. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:28 | |
And the last group, Mini, Frank, Effy, Cassie. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
Mm, not so sure about this one. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
Um, members of the Saturdays. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:38 | |
No, you know they're characters from something. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
If you haven't seen it, you haven't seen it. It's the E4 teenage drama Skins. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:45 | |
-Characters from Skins. -Fair enough. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:47 | |
Four points for the groups, two more connections. That's six. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:51 | |
Time to bring in their opponents and see what they can do with the connecting wall. 16 clues. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:56 | |
Still jumbled up, still needs to be sorted | 0:21:56 | 0:21:59 | |
into four connected groups of four. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
Technologists, it will be the water wall for you. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
Two and a half minutes to solve it starting now. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:08 | |
OK. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:11 | |
Royal families? | 0:22:11 | 0:22:12 | |
Martello's a kind of castle. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:18 | |
Tower, yeah, ivory tower. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
Conning Tower. Shall we go for that one? | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
And Lookout tower? | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
There's going to be a fifth. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:25 | |
Good Tower? Royle Tower? | 0:22:25 | 0:22:27 | |
Bell tower. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:28 | |
OK. Go for it. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:30 | |
-Very good. -That was quick. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
Um, Roper is a character in... um... | 0:22:33 | 0:22:36 | |
Good. Barbara Good. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:38 | |
Royle. These are surnames... Trotter and Bucket. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:42 | |
-They're all surnames from TV programmes. -Of families. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
And Roper's... Kranky. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
Kranky is definitely a TV family, isn't it? | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
Do you want to keep going through? | 0:22:50 | 0:22:52 | |
So... No good. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:55 | |
Shill, Roper... | 0:22:55 | 0:22:56 | |
Bucket. | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
Now Trotter. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
Royle. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:01 | |
Wormwood. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
It's a little more complicated. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
To shill is to fool someone. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:06 | |
But that's conning. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:08 | |
What's wormwood? It's in drinks. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:10 | |
Wormwood's in Absinthe. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
It's also, I believe... | 0:23:12 | 0:23:14 | |
Oh, a shill is a victim, | 0:23:14 | 0:23:15 | |
or mark is a victim. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:16 | |
Perhaps they... | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
OK, these are all scams. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
You've got a lookout and a bucket. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:23 | |
Yeah, well done. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:24 | |
Or maybe a trotter. | 0:23:24 | 0:23:26 | |
Medford. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:27 | |
Wormwood is at the end of the... | 0:23:32 | 0:23:35 | |
It's fire and brimstone stuff. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:37 | |
Yeah, Revelations. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:39 | |
Kent Brockman is the... | 0:23:39 | 0:23:41 | |
Wormwood's something in Harry Potter but... | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
Yeah, that's another surname for him. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
No, they're families, right? | 0:23:51 | 0:23:53 | |
The Royle family, Kranky, | 0:23:53 | 0:23:55 | |
There's going to be something we haven't got yet. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:58 | |
Medford, Royle. It's going to be Lookout tower. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
Yep. No, we've got the towers. | 0:24:08 | 0:24:10 | |
So we... | 0:24:10 | 0:24:11 | |
You're under 30 seconds now. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
I think these are scam victims, | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
scam slang, but we might be missing one. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:24 | |
Roper, to rope people in? | 0:24:24 | 0:24:25 | |
Yeah, sure. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
Sounds good. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:28 | |
Um, and shill. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:30 | |
Under ten seconds. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:31 | |
And we guess something randomly. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:33 | |
Five seconds. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:34 | |
-And we guess something else randomly. -Families. | 0:24:34 | 0:24:37 | |
No, that's it, we're out of time. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
The grid's frozen. But you got two groups, two points, | 0:24:39 | 0:24:42 | |
and I can give you more points for the connections. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
Bell, Martello, Ivory, Conning. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
They're all towers. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:48 | |
They're all towers. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:50 | |
Martello Tower, a fort built in the Napoleonic wars, | 0:24:50 | 0:24:53 | |
Conning tower on a submarine. | 0:24:53 | 0:24:55 | |
Mark, lookout, roper, shill. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:57 | |
These are all slang from scams, heists. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:00 | |
That's it. Participants in a scam. Roper, you came to late. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:04 | |
That's the person who gets people's attention, ropes them in. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
You can still get points for connections in the other groups. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:11 | |
Let's resolve the wall. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:12 | |
Brockman, Medford, Royle, Good. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:14 | |
