0:00:23 > 0:00:24the quiz so hard it's possible to lose
0:00:24 > 0:00:26even if your opponents forget to show up.
0:00:26 > 0:00:30Tonight, the pressure is intense, the tension's unbearable
0:00:30 > 0:00:32and everyone's desperate to win.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35I'm sorry...I seem to be reading a script from the X Factor.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37But it is a big deal, because this is the semifinal.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40We're quizzing for a place in the final
0:00:40 > 0:00:42and if you didn't grasp that from the word "semifinal",

0:01:11 > 0:01:13they are the Festival Fans.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Marianne, you lost your first heat, won your second,
0:01:17 > 0:01:20had a tie-break in the third. What can we expect from you today?
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Hopefully, something less stressful than last time!
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Good luck tonight.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26Your opponents are, on my left,

0:01:54 > 0:01:56they are the Celts.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Now, Huw, you've had a straight run of wins to get here.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01You haven't dropped a game. How are you feeling about this match?
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Well, we're on a good run at the moment,
0:02:03 > 0:02:05and just hope it continues.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Looking forward to it, really.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Let's get on with the semifinal.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Round One is how we're going to begin.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14What's the connection between four apparently random clues?
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Festival Fans, you won the toss,
0:02:16 > 0:02:18but you've chosen to put the Celts in first.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Which hieroglyph would you like?
0:02:20 > 0:02:22- Two Reeds.- Two Reeds.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26What is the connection between these pictorial clues?
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Here's the first.
0:02:32 > 0:02:33THEY CONFER
0:02:36 > 0:02:37Next.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43I think it could be impossible machines.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Oh, OK.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46- Shall we say next?- Yes.
0:02:46 > 0:02:47Next.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51- Yeah, I think...- Shall we go? What do you say?
0:02:51 > 0:02:53A perpetual motion machine.
0:02:53 > 0:02:54BELL
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Perpetual motion machines.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01They are designed for perpetual motion machines.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03There's the last one.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Can you see how any of them work, these machines here?
0:03:05 > 0:03:09The first one's along the idea of a flow...
0:03:09 > 0:03:12When you take a liquid through a pump,
0:03:12 > 0:03:14you siphon, and it'll theoretically go round and round and round,
0:03:14 > 0:03:16though, theoretically, of course, it can't,
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- as it's losing energy all the time.- That's right.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22The second one's got magnets in it, to sort of ramp with a magnet.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24We've got a rotating cylinder,
0:03:24 > 0:03:27and then there's an over-balanced wheel that's meant to keep turning.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29None of them would remain in perpetual motion.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31They're impossible machines.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34Two points to you. Over to the Festival Fans to pick a question.
0:03:34 > 0:03:35- Horned Viper, please.- Horned Viper.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38What's the connection between these clues? Here's the first.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42US intervention in World War I...
0:03:42 > 0:03:46There could be a lot of things this is. Next.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Cause of the Franco-Prussian War...
0:03:50 > 0:03:52- Telegrams!- Go on. Go for it.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54BELL
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Telegrams.
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Coming in after two clues,
0:03:57 > 0:04:00I'm going to give you three points. The connection is telegrams.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Here are the other clues. What can you tell me about them?
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- The US intervention... What that the...?- The Zimmermann note.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09- That's right.- I don't know the cause of the Franco-Prussian War.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12- It was telegrams. - Crippen was aboard ship
0:04:12 > 0:04:14and they sent a telegram to the ship
0:04:14 > 0:04:16and arrested him and brought him back to the UK.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18The captain of the ship recognised him
0:04:18 > 0:04:20and telegraphed the police, who were waiting.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23And obviously, the centenarian one
0:04:23 > 0:04:25is you got a telegram from the Queen.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28But obviously, nowadays, we don't really do telegrams.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31No, I think the Queen sends a text message.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33"That's gr8," writes the Queen,
0:04:33 > 0:04:35with 8 where the "eat" should be.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37That's right. The first two, military ones.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39All associated by telegram.
0:04:39 > 0:04:40Well done.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44Higher scores than I was expecting for this difficult round.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Let's see how we continue.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47Back to you Celts for a question.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Lion, please.
0:04:49 > 0:04:50BELL
0:04:50 > 0:04:52Music is coming your way.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57# It's your freshman year
0:04:57 > 0:05:02# And you're gonna be here for the next four years... #
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Next.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06# I'm so hot and bothered
0:05:06 > 0:05:08# That I don't know
0:05:08 > 0:05:11# My elbow from my ear... #
0:05:11 > 0:05:13THEY CONFER
0:05:15 > 0:05:16Next.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19# I'm not bragging, babe So don't put me down... #
0:05:19 > 0:05:22It's the Beach Boys. It's Little Deuce Coupe.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25# When something comes up to me... #
0:05:25 > 0:05:26Next.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29# Only then
0:05:29 > 0:05:31# I knew my heart was free... #
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- Oh, crumbs!- Three seconds.
0:05:34 > 0:05:35BELL
0:05:35 > 0:05:36Newspapers?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39I don't know!
0:05:39 > 0:05:41It's to do with cars.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44No, it is not to do with cars.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46They're not all connected with that.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48So, Festival Fans, you've got a bonus chance.
0:05:48 > 0:05:49We'll try places in Wales.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52No, I don't think any of them is a place in Wales.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56- We might have...- He thought it might be Help Me, Rhonda, one of them.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58So we thought...
0:05:58 > 0:06:01No, the Beach Boys one is the one your opponents recognised
0:06:01 > 0:06:05as Little Deuce Coupe, which is why I think you went for cars.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07It wasn't newspapers either, by the way.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10You heard, by Taylor Swift, 15.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13By Ella Fitzgerald, You Took Advantage Of Me.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Then we had Little Deuce Coupe
0:06:15 > 0:06:17and the last one, Only Love.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Tennis scores are hidden there.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Festival Fans, you don't get the bonus point,
0:06:22 > 0:06:25- but you do get the chance to choose a question.- Eye of Horus, please.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28OK. What's the connection between these clues? Here's the first.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Do we know anything about those? I think we should take next.
0:06:34 > 0:06:35Next.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43I think we should go next. Next.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- Pret A Manger?- No, there is one called Eat.- No, because...
0:06:51 > 0:06:53I don't know anything about Eat.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Next.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58Bench clothing label...
0:07:05 > 0:07:07- Three seconds. - BELL
0:07:07 > 0:07:09Oh, big.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Not the answer, I'm afraid,
0:07:11 > 0:07:13as I think you know.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Celts, can you get a bonus here?
0:07:15 > 0:07:19Do they have an exclamation mark at the end of them, or something?
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Have another go.
0:07:21 > 0:07:22Right... Thank you!
0:07:22 > 0:07:24They have...
0:07:24 > 0:07:26- a symbol of some sort.- A punctuation mark at the end.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Yes, they do. They have a full stop. Not an exclamation mark,
0:07:29 > 0:07:31but I will take punctuation.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33They all have a superfluous full stop -
0:07:33 > 0:07:35a bit of punctuation they really don't need.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37On the front of the Pet Shop Boys' Behaviour album,
0:07:37 > 0:07:40they've got a full stop. You'll see that as well in the logo
0:07:40 > 0:07:42of Eat and Bench, and Fun, the indie pop group
0:07:42 > 0:07:45with which I'm not familiar, style themselves with a full stop.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48So, yes, extraneous punctuation for the point.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50And Celts, you may now choose your own question.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52- Twisted Flax, please.- Twisted Flax.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10- Go for one more.- Next.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20- Next.- Next again.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Oh, I...I...
0:08:26 > 0:08:29This is the alternative Nobel prizes, I think.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31- Research into these.- OK.
0:08:31 > 0:08:32BELL
0:08:32 > 0:08:36These were... It's the alternative Nobel Prize
0:08:36 > 0:08:40for the most strange, odd, off-the-wall
0:08:40 > 0:08:42scientific research of the year.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45That's absolutely right. It's known as the Ig Nobel Prize.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Yes, it's a prize given for odder forms of research.
0:08:48 > 0:08:53Yes, the 2000 Ig Nobel Prize for Physics
0:08:53 > 0:08:55went to some people that were levitating a frog.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58How swearing relives pain - that got the Peace Prize.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Apparently it does.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Anyone want to have a go at telling me the odds
0:09:02 > 0:09:04that Gorbachev was the Antichrist?
0:09:04 > 0:09:05No!
0:09:05 > 0:09:10It's 710,609,175,188,028,000 to one.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Alternative Nobel Prizes. Ig Nobel Prizes. Well done, Celts.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15And back to you, Festival Fans, for the last question,
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Water.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20What is the connection between these clues? Here's the first.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Next. That could be a lot of things.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Did they give everybody a free pardon?
0:09:33 > 0:09:37I think there's been an amnesty.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39- Go for the next one.- Next.
0:09:42 > 0:09:43So...
0:09:43 > 0:09:45That's a big prize, isn't it?
0:09:45 > 0:09:46I think we should go next.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Yeah. Yeah. Next.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56That's the Basketball Association.
0:09:56 > 0:09:57Three seconds.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59BELL
0:09:59 > 0:10:01It's all done by draft.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Something done by... It's a lottery.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Well, now,
0:10:05 > 0:10:07you were scrabbling around in the area,
0:10:07 > 0:10:09but the word I heard from your captain was lottery,
0:10:09 > 0:10:11which is the connection.
0:10:11 > 0:10:12Yes, allocated via lotteries.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14On the Green Card system,
0:10:14 > 0:10:1650,000 Green Cards a year given out by lottery.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Vietnam - do you know anything about that?
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Basically, you drew lots, and if you were picked,
0:10:21 > 0:10:22you went to Vietnam.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24They did it with people's birthdays.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26And the order in which they'd go
0:10:26 > 0:10:29went by pulling birthdays out of some sort of hat,
0:10:29 > 0:10:30and that third one
0:10:30 > 0:10:32is a record-breaking Euro-Millions jackpot.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34I think that's why I got there.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36That's it. The NBA draft. Done by lotteries.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Well done. At the end of Round One,
0:10:38 > 0:10:41the Festival Fans got four points.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43The Celts also have four points.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Round Two is the sequences round.
0:10:48 > 0:10:49There are still four clues,
0:10:49 > 0:10:51but the teams may see a maximum of three of them,
0:10:51 > 0:10:53because I want to know what's fourth.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55They must work it out sequentially.
0:10:55 > 0:10:56Celts, you'll be going first again.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Which hieroglyph would you like?
0:10:58 > 0:11:00- Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds. OK.
0:11:00 > 0:11:01These are going to be pictures.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04What would you expect to see in the fourth picture? Here's the first.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09That looks like a Microsoft E...
0:11:11 > 0:11:12Next.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16It's a trill.
0:11:16 > 0:11:17And it's a C.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- Next?- Next.
0:11:24 > 0:11:25It's Crimewatch.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Is it? Is it Crimewatch?

0:11:35 > 0:11:36- Next.- No, you can't.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38- Oh, sorry!- That's the question, I'm afraid.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44- Three seconds. - BELL
0:11:46 > 0:11:48- The letter A.- I'm afraid that's not the answer,
0:11:48 > 0:11:50so there's a bonus chance for the Festival Fans.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Er...a drill.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55I'm afraid that's not it, but you're a lot closer.
0:11:55 > 0:11:56What's your thinking?
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Well, we thought trill and then maybe bill,
0:11:59 > 0:12:02so we think maybe ending in "ill" is something to do with it.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Oh, and you're a mathematician!
0:12:04 > 0:12:06We're dividing by 1,000.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08That's quadrille paper, for a quadrillion.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10- A trillion.- Oh!
0:12:10 > 0:12:12It is The Bill - billion.
0:12:12 > 0:12:13Dividing by 1,000 again - a mill.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15We went with a pepper mill.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18It's the powers of 1,000 and we're going backwards -
0:12:18 > 0:12:20quadrillion, trillion, billion, million.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24Festival Fans, what question would you like?
0:12:24 > 0:12:26- Twisted Flax, please.- Twisted Flax.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28What is the fourth in this sequence?

0:12:35 > 0:12:37- Shall we say next?- Yes.- Yes. - Next, please.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42It's 100 days.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45- You sure?- Yes, but what's the third one?
0:12:45 > 0:12:47What's the sequence?
0:12:47 > 0:12:49- The something-day marriage... - It's ten days.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52It's 100... No, it's one day.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54It's 1,000 days, 100 days,
0:12:54 > 0:12:56ten days...it'll be one day.

0:12:58 > 0:12:59BELL
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Something that lasted for a day.
0:13:01 > 0:13:02Like a day.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Like a day?! You can do better than that. What lasts a day?
0:13:05 > 0:13:06Christmas Day?
0:13:06 > 0:13:09That'll do. I'm going to give you three points
0:13:09 > 0:13:10for coming after two clues.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13We are looking at things that lasted 1,000 days,
0:13:13 > 0:13:16100 days, then ten days, then one.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18This time, we're dividing by ten.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20The David Nicholls novel, One Day.
0:13:20 > 0:13:24Very well done. Three points to you and we're going back to the Celts
0:13:24 > 0:13:25to pick a question.
0:13:25 > 0:13:26- Lion, please.- Lion.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28What is the fourth in this sequence?
0:13:28 > 0:13:30Here's the first.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Oh, are they the humours?
0:13:35 > 0:13:37- Do you know the order?- No.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39- Go for the next one.- Next.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43Ah.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49- Is it something to do with music? - I don't know.
0:13:51 > 0:13:52Go next. Next.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Oh, gosh!
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Oh, it's John Masefield.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02- It's a poet.- Poet Laureate?
0:14:07 > 0:14:08Three seconds.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10BELL
0:14:10 > 0:14:11Waste Land, I don't know.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Waste Land.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Not the answer, I'm afraid, so there's a bonus chance
0:14:15 > 0:14:17for the Festival Fans.
0:14:17 > 0:14:18Name a poem, somebody!
0:14:18 > 0:14:20A poem.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Something...
0:14:23 > 0:14:25I'm afraid you've already taken too long debating it.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29Now, you, I heard during the debate mention Poets Laureate.
0:14:29 > 0:14:30- Yeah.- That is what it is.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Poems by successive Poets Laureate.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Melancholia by Robert Bridges.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Cargoes, I think you recognised - John Masefield.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39- Where Are The War Poets? - Is that C Day-Lewis?
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Cecil Day-Lewis.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43So we wanted to hear something by John Betjeman.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45We went with Slough.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Had you shouted Summoned By Bells,
0:14:47 > 0:14:50I might have said, "Can you be any more specific?"
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Because, of course, we wanted a poem rather than a book.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54The Licorice Fields At Pontefract.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56That would have been lovely.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Imagine if you'd said it at the right moment.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Oh, it's like leaving a party!
0:15:00 > 0:15:04Yes, poems by successive Poets Laureate.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06Near, but not quite.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08All right, Festival Fans,
0:15:08 > 0:15:10- what would you like? - Horned Viper, please.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12The Horned Viper.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14What is the fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21Let's go next.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Sounds like... Is it something to do with golf? I don't know.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29Shall we go next?
0:15:29 > 0:15:31Next.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Oh, oh, oh, it's poker.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Because it could be... I think it's a succession of numbers,
0:15:44 > 0:15:47so it could be a succession of four numbers, maybe.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49- Hit the button.- Three seconds.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51BELL
0:15:51 > 0:15:52Um...
0:15:52 > 0:15:55- So...- I do need an answer.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57Four, five, six, seven. I don't know!
0:15:57 > 0:16:00- Eight.- It's not four, five, six, seven or eight,
0:16:00 > 0:16:03so I'm going to throw it over to the Celts for a possible bonus.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06We think it's the odds of getting something, so insight straight flush?
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Have another go.
0:16:08 > 0:16:101: Inside straight flush.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12That'll do. I'll absolutely take it.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15It's not exactly the odds - it's the number of outs you have.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17- Right, OK.- So if you've got a particular hand,
0:16:17 > 0:16:19you're trying to make another hand,
0:16:19 > 0:16:21it's the number of cards available to make your hand.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24So if you want an inside straight, there's four cards you can hit.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Three if you want to pair an overcard,
0:16:26 > 0:16:28two for either side of a straight flush
0:16:28 > 0:16:31and an inside straight flush, there's only one card you can hit,
0:16:31 > 0:16:35so one. We went with four of a kind. Inside straight flush will do.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38So, well done, Celts, you get the bonus. Are you poker players?
0:16:38 > 0:16:40Very mildly!
0:16:40 > 0:16:44- How much money do you have with you? - £2.25.- That'll do.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Let's get to the end of this.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48Your turn to choose a question.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50- Water, please.- Water.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52What is the fourth in this sequence?
0:16:52 > 0:16:53Here's the first.
0:16:59 > 0:17:00Next.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04GPRS is satellite.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06- So it's a satellite system?- Yes.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Oh, it might be something to do with the sequence of letters.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14- Shall we go for the next one?- Next. - Next.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19It's a mobile phone thing.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22- 3G?- 3G.- 2G?
0:17:22 > 0:17:243G.
0:17:24 > 0:17:25- Shall we say that?- Yeah.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27BELL
0:17:27 > 0:17:283G.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Otherwise known as UMTS, the answer is 3G.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Very well done. And why is that?
0:17:32 > 0:17:35It's something to do with mobile phone satellite signals.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37It's data communications standards.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39That's right. Technologies going forwards,
0:17:39 > 0:17:41and after EDGE, 3G.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Well done.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45Festival Fans, that leaves
0:17:45 > 0:17:46the Eye of Horus for you.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48What is the fourth in this sequence?
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Here's the first.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55We'll need next, I think.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56Next.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02This could even be, like, songs or something,
0:18:02 > 0:18:03by someone I've never heard of.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06I think we should go next. Next.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11Oh, is it nicknames for kings or something?
0:18:11 > 0:18:13So it's someone the IV,
0:18:13 > 0:18:15and I would think the name of a king.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Go for The Terrible.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19IV: The Terrible.
0:18:19 > 0:18:20BELL
0:18:20 > 0:18:21IV: The Terrible?
0:18:21 > 0:18:23That's right. What name are we looking for?
0:18:23 > 0:18:25- Ivan.- Ivan.
0:18:25 > 0:18:26Ivan I was The Moneybag.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Ivan II was The Red. Ivan III was The Great.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Ivan IV was The Terrible.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Meaning, at the end of Round Two,
0:18:33 > 0:18:35the Celts have got seven points.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38The Festival Fans are ahead with nine.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Time for the Connecting Wall,
0:18:43 > 0:18:46the 16 jumbled-up clues that need sorting into four groups of four.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Points for the groups and points for the connections are available.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51Festival Fans, you'll be going first this time.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- Would you like Lion or Water? - Lion, please.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57You've got two and a half minutes to solve it.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Starting now.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03Right, Caesars Palace, Black Jack - those are games, aren't they?
0:19:03 > 0:19:06Vermont is the Green Mountain State.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Aintree's 40 fences. Christmas pudding...
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Cos you've got things that are aniseed flavour too -
0:19:12 > 0:19:13fennel, absinthe,
0:19:13 > 0:19:15sambuca...
0:19:15 > 0:19:18And maybe that's a sort of tea that could be aniseed-flavoured.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21- BUZZ - What's...?
0:19:21 > 0:19:22Try that?
0:19:22 > 0:19:25- BUZZ - Or maybe even Vermont - I don't know what that is.
0:19:25 > 0:19:26BUZZ
0:19:26 > 0:19:27No. So...
0:19:27 > 0:19:32Caesars Palace is a...casino. Monaco's got a casino.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35So, Monaco, Caesars Palace...
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Black Jack and...
0:19:39 > 0:19:41- What?- Oh, Paul Ricard is aniseed as well.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43Go back to that.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46So you think Paul Ricard, fennel,
0:19:46 > 0:19:47absinthe, sambuca?
0:19:47 > 0:19:49BUZZ
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Is that a type of tea? I don't know.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53So Christmas pudding...
0:19:53 > 0:19:56Green eyes, jealousy.
0:19:56 > 0:19:57Funeral pyre...
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Green Mountain State is Vermont.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01So, green... Jealousy for green.
0:20:01 > 0:20:02That could be green tea.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Tea is green and absinthe's green.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06BUZZ
0:20:08 > 0:20:09So we've got three things that are green.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13Anything else that strikes people that has anything to do with green?
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Does that mean anything to people?
0:20:15 > 0:20:17It doesn't mean anything to me.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19Oh, God!
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Black Jack, Caesars Palace...
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Aintree's a horse course - 40 fences.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26So, things that you burn are a guy,
0:20:26 > 0:20:27you burn a pyre,
0:20:27 > 0:20:30you burn a Christmas pudding. You set that on fire.
0:20:30 > 0:20:31You set that on fire.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33You set that on fire and you set sambuca on fire.
0:20:33 > 0:20:34BUZZ
0:20:37 > 0:20:38Oh! Um...
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Let's keep going.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42So we've got green things, things you set on fire,
0:20:42 > 0:20:43aniseed flavours and gambling.
0:20:43 > 0:20:44And we can't sort this out!
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Christmas pudding...
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Christmas pudding, sambuca,
0:20:48 > 0:20:50and a pyre...
0:20:50 > 0:20:54What else might we set on fire?
0:20:54 > 0:20:56We've still got... What the hell is that?
0:20:56 > 0:20:57What is Vermont doing here?
0:20:57 > 0:20:59I don't know.
0:20:59 > 0:21:00But you think that's green?
0:21:00 > 0:21:01You've got 30 seconds.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04Green fairy, green state...
0:21:04 > 0:21:06green eyes of jealousy...
0:21:06 > 0:21:08We tried this before
0:21:08 > 0:21:09and I've no idea.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11And the tea didn't work as the fourth,
0:21:11 > 0:21:12so we'll go for something else.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14That sounds a bit weak, but...
0:21:14 > 0:21:15BUZZ
0:21:15 > 0:21:18What the hell is Britt Reid doing as well?
0:21:18 > 0:21:19Ten seconds.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Er....
0:21:24 > 0:21:25BUZZ
0:21:25 > 0:21:26It's a tough one.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29That's it. The time's up and the wall's frozen.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31What a nasty wall!
0:21:31 > 0:21:34- Terrible!- The other one's horrible as well, if it helps.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37And you can still get points for the connections,
0:21:37 > 0:21:39despite not finding the groups, so let's resolve the wall.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41There we go.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45Caesars Palace, Paul Ricard, Aintree, Monaco.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47That's got to be casinos, hasn't it?
0:21:47 > 0:21:48It's not casinos, I'm afraid.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51They are locations for the Formula 1 Grand Prix.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53- Of course!- Grand Prix is what they are.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Now, the next group - jealousy, Britt Reid,
0:21:55 > 0:21:58Vermont, absinthe.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00We think green eyes of jealousy, absinthe is the green fairy,
0:22:00 > 0:22:03so things with "green" in their nickname.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Britt Reid is the Green Hornet.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07So that's right. Green is the connection.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09What about the next one?
0:22:09 > 0:22:13Guy, pyre, Christmas pudding and Chametz.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15It's things you set on fire.
0:22:15 > 0:22:16It is. That last one you didn't know,
0:22:16 > 0:22:19that is something in the Passover ritual -
0:22:19 > 0:22:22leavened food which is burned in advance of Passover
0:22:22 > 0:22:23as part of the ceremony.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26All things that can be set on fire.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30That leaves Black Jack, fennel, Gunpowder Kali, sambuca.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33I'm kicking myself for not seeing the aniseed sweet!
0:22:33 > 0:22:34It's aniseed-flavoured things.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37They are the things that are flavoured with aniseed.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39So, no points for the groups, but you do get
0:22:39 > 0:22:41three points for the connections.
0:22:41 > 0:22:42Let's bring in the Celts
0:22:42 > 0:22:45and see how they fare with a semifinal Connecting Wall.
0:22:45 > 0:22:4716 new clues, of course,
0:22:47 > 0:22:48equally fiendish,
0:22:48 > 0:22:51still need solving. The Water wall, that is what remains for you.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Two and a half minutes to solve it.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Starting now.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00Bombay Sapphire is gin, isn't it?
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Gin - Hendricks.
0:23:02 > 0:23:03Beefeater.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06- Shall we have a try? - Remember which one we're not doing.
0:23:06 > 0:23:07BUZZ
0:23:07 > 0:23:09So Cork Dry we missed, then?
0:23:09 > 0:23:11- Is that right?- Yeah.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13BUZZ
0:23:13 > 0:23:14OK, miss Tanqueray.
0:23:17 > 0:23:18BUZZ
0:23:18 > 0:23:19OK, miss Beefeater.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21BUZZ
0:23:23 > 0:23:24BUZZ
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Penny Black is a stamp.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27It is, yes.
0:23:27 > 0:23:28Um...
0:23:28 > 0:23:32Oh, hang on, we've got red coats.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35Butlins, Chelsea Pensioner,
0:23:35 > 0:23:37toastmaster... and master of foxhounds.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41Which ones did we miss there?
0:23:42 > 0:23:44The Beefeater...
0:23:44 > 0:23:45- That's a gin.- Yeah.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Um...
0:23:49 > 0:23:50- This one?- Yeah.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52BUZZ
0:23:53 > 0:23:55Is Citadelle a gin?
0:23:57 > 0:23:59OK, what else have we got?
0:23:59 > 0:24:00Brie is cheese.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Do you know what Tanqueray is?
0:24:02 > 0:24:04It's a gin, yeah?
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Oh, hang on.
0:24:06 > 0:24:07These are people in...
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Mad Men.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11I'm sure.
0:24:11 > 0:24:12BUZZ
0:24:12 > 0:24:13No.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Jones, Hendricks...what else could be a name?
0:24:16 > 0:24:18- Brie?- Maybe.
0:24:18 > 0:24:19Right.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21Three strikes and you're out now.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23What gin have we got now? Beefeater, Tanqueray, Cork Dry
0:24:23 > 0:24:25and Bombay Sapphire.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28These are all things that have been auctioned, I think.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30- Right.- So, Bombay Sapphire...
0:24:30 > 0:24:34the Crimea medal, double florin and Penny Black?
0:24:34 > 0:24:37So they're all probably gins, in that case.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39Citadelle could be a gin.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44That's it! You've solved the wall.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46That's four points immediately,
0:24:46 > 0:24:48and there are more points available for the connections.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51Master of foxhounds, toastmaster,
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Butlins employee, Chelsea Pensioner.
0:24:53 > 0:24:54They wear red coats.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56They traditionally wear red coats.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Brie, Moss, Jones, Hendricks.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01I think they're actors in Mad Men.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03I didn't think anyone would spot that.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06They are the surnames of women who appear in Mad Men.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Next group - Penny Black, Bombay Sapphire,
0:25:09 > 0:25:12double florin, Crimea medal.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15I think this is something about them being auctioned.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18They're the...
0:25:18 > 0:25:19highest price for an auction?
0:25:19 > 0:25:21No.
0:25:21 > 0:25:22That's a very good guess.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24I can absolutely see your thinking.
0:25:24 > 0:25:25Not it, though.
0:25:25 > 0:25:29They are things that carry portraits of Queen Victoria.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Of course, you can see why the Crimea medal and the double florin
0:25:31 > 0:25:34and the Penny Black, because they date from that time.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37And the Bombay Sapphire also does. Queen Victoria.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39And the last one - Beefeater, Citadelle, Tanqueray,
0:25:39 > 0:25:40Cork Dry.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43- We believe they're brands of gin. - They absolutely are.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46Your problem there... I mean, it was like my bathroom cabinet at home.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49So many gins, it was hard to choose.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51So you get four points for finding the groups,
0:25:51 > 0:25:54three more for the connections. That's a total of seven.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57Let's see how that affects the scores going into the last round.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06And if that made you want to play a Connecting Wall,
0:26:06 > 0:26:09I think you're a masochist, but you can satisfy yourself
0:26:09 > 0:26:10on our website,
0:26:10 > 0:26:12where you can even write your own.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15We, though, are going to decide who goes through to the final

0:27:09 > 0:27:11- Epicureanism.- That's it.
0:27:11 > 0:27:12Next clue.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16- Celts?- Romanticism.- Correct.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Next category...

0:27:45 > 0:27:48I'm afraid that's not it. You lose a point. Fans, do you know it?
0:27:48 > 0:27:50- I don't love you any more. - That's it.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52END OF ROUND JINGLE
0:27:54 > 0:27:57That bell signals the end of the quiz.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59And the results are...
0:27:59 > 0:28:02The Festival Fans finish with 16 points.
0:28:02 > 0:28:03But the winners, and through to the final
0:28:03 > 0:28:06with 20 points, it's the Celts.
0:28:06 > 0:28:07Oh, my God!
0:28:07 > 0:28:11Goodness me! How those break-up phrases tripped off the tongue
0:28:11 > 0:28:13for all of you.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15But I'm afraid it's the Festival Fans...
0:28:15 > 0:28:17It's not that I don't love you any more.
0:28:17 > 0:28:18It's not even that I need space.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21It's just how it works. It's the world, it's fate. I'm sorry.
0:28:21 > 0:28:22We have to say goodbye.
0:28:22 > 0:28:25Thank you for playing. You've been a brilliant team.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Celts, many congratulations. You're through to the final.
0:28:28 > 0:28:29So we'll see you again.
0:28:29 > 0:28:30Thank you for watching,
0:28:30 > 0:28:33and if you find any of those questions incomprehensible,
0:28:33 > 0:28:34don't worry.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36Many of them are now part of a one-time pad code
0:28:36 > 0:28:38whereby MI6 send messages
0:28:38 > 0:28:41to agents in the field that have infiltrated Al-Qaeda.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Either that, or it's a normal question
0:28:43 > 0:28:45that you're not smart enough to get.
0:28:45 > 0:28:46Goodbye.
