Hello and welcome to Only Connect,

0:00:210:00:23

the quiz that's like a gym for the mind.

0:00:230:00:26

Let me explain what I mean by that for all you hardcore quizzers out there.

0:00:260:00:29

A gym is sort of building full of sports equipment -

0:00:290:00:34

but don't switch off, I'm speaking metaphorically -

0:00:340:00:36

and our teams will face a series of heavy and exhausting questions,

0:00:360:00:40

with me as their personal trainer,

0:00:400:00:42

shouting encouragement and occasionally nipping off to the vending machine in the cafe.

0:00:420:00:46

The vending machine is literal, only it's not in the cafe, it's in my dressing room.

0:00:460:00:50

And it's not a vending machine, it's a varsity rowing team

0:00:500:00:53

holding its weight in pork scratchings.

0:00:530:00:55

I'm keen to get back there, so let's hurry up and meet the teams.

0:00:550:00:59

On my right, Ian Clark, a solicitor and keen world traveller,

0:00:590:01:03

who was once hit in the chest by a rice cake

0:01:030:01:06

thrown during a Japanese fertility festival,

0:01:060:01:09

Sam Goodyear, a history graduate who now works as a futures trader,

0:01:090:01:13

and played trumpet at Pete Postlethwaite's stag night,

0:01:130:01:16

and their captain, Mark Walton,

0:01:160:01:18

a sales manager and Sunderland FC supporter,

0:01:180:01:21

who enjoys volcano trekking and visiting the British Museum.

0:01:210:01:24

United by their love of all things French, they are the Francophiles.

0:01:240:01:29

-Mark, bienvenue a Only Connect.

-SHE SPEAKS FLUENT FRENCH

0:01:290:01:33

I don't actually speak French.

0:01:330:01:36

Oh, you don't! So your love of most things French...

0:01:360:01:39

-Most things French, yes.

-What else does your team bring to the table?

0:01:390:01:42

I think we've got a good range of experience and ages.

0:01:420:01:47

We cover a lot of bases,

0:01:470:01:48

from high-brow stuff to low-brow stuff, as well.

0:01:480:01:52

OK. That sounds perfect. You are meeting tonight, on my left,

0:01:520:01:56

Ed Dovey, a charity support worker

0:01:560:01:58

with an interest in military history and a passion for war games,

0:01:580:02:01

Stewart McCartney,

0:02:010:02:03

a media researcher, who is a member of the Campaign for Real Ale,

0:02:030:02:06

The National Autistic Society, the York City South,

0:02:060:02:09

the National Trust and The Dad's Army Appreciation Society,

0:02:090:02:12

and their captain, Marianne Fairthorne,

0:02:120:02:15

a mathematical software developer who enjoys boxing

0:02:150:02:18

and has a collection of over 50 hats.

0:02:180:02:20

Devoted attendees of music, literary and beer festivals, they are the Festival Fans.

0:02:200:02:25

Marianne, that's quite a team of polymaths you've got there.

0:02:250:02:28

-How have you been preparing?

-Mainly in the pub.

0:02:280:02:31

There's quite a lot of crossover between real ale-drinkers and quizzers.

0:02:310:02:35

What's your best area as a team?

0:02:350:02:38

Beer and maths.

0:02:380:02:40

A natural pairing!

0:02:400:02:43

Now, under our complicated new scoring system,

0:02:430:02:45

everyone gets at least two games

0:02:450:02:49

but the winners tonight are on a fast track to the semifinal,

0:02:490:02:52

the losers on a slower track.

0:02:520:02:53

Francophiles, you won the toss, you'll be going first.

0:02:530:02:56

Please choose an Egyptian hieroglyph.

0:02:560:02:59

-Lion.

-Kicking off with the lion.

0:02:590:03:03

What is the connection between four apparently random clues?

0:03:030:03:06

You may not need all four. Here's the first.

0:03:060:03:10

Hirst's 'Cupric Nitrate'. It's copper.

0:03:110:03:14

So Damien Hirst.

0:03:140:03:16

Next.

0:03:160:03:18

-Mr Tumble's bag.

-Mr Tumble's bag?

0:03:180:03:21

Copper nitrate's probably blue. Next?

0:03:210:03:25

Next.

0:03:250:03:27

Pudsey's bandage.

0:03:270:03:28

That's red and white. It's dotted.

0:03:280:03:32

Shall we go red and white, or next?

0:03:320:03:34

Next.

0:03:340:03:36

Twister mat. That's got spots.

0:03:360:03:39

-Coloured spots.

-That's what it is - multi-coloured spots.

0:03:390:03:43

The first clue - do you know what that is?

0:03:430:03:45

Oh, it's the dots! It's Hirst's spot painting, isn't it?

0:03:450:03:49

I've seen them.

0:03:490:03:51

It's one of the spot paintings. They have chemical-based names.

0:03:510:03:54

Mr Tumble's bag - do you know what that is?

0:03:540:03:57

-I'm not sure who Mr Tumble is.

-I'm not sure, either.

0:03:570:03:59

He's a character in a programme on CBeebies.

0:03:590:04:02

Pudsey's bandage has the spots and a Twister mat, of course.

0:04:020:04:05

Well done. That's 1 point to you. It's over to the Festival Fans.

0:04:050:04:09

-Can we have Eye of Horus, please?

-You absolutely may.

0:04:090:04:12

The music question straight away! Everyone always seems so pleased!

0:04:120:04:17

What is the connection between these clues?

0:04:170:04:20

BLUESY ROCK MUSIC

0:04:200:04:22

Do you know what it is?

0:04:220:04:25

-So, you know what it is?

-Yes.

-Next.

0:04:250:04:28

# Come on, baby, come on over

0:04:280:04:31

# Let me be the one to hold you...

0:04:310:04:34

# I'm the one who wants to Be with you #

0:04:340:04:37

-What was the first one again?

-Go for the third clue.

0:04:370:04:40

Next.

0:04:400:04:41

ELECTRO MUSIC This is Mr Oizo.

0:04:410:04:43

-They're all misters.

-It's...

-Press it.

0:04:430:04:47

Yes?

0:04:470:04:48

-They're all mister.

-The artists are all "Mr" something.

0:04:480:04:51

You didn't need to hear Broken Wings by Mr Mister.

0:04:510:04:53

You get 2 points. Well done.

0:04:530:04:55

Why did you look so miserable to get the music question?

0:04:550:04:58

-What sort of festivals are you going to?

-Ones with beer!

0:04:580:05:03

Which of those would you have heard live?

0:05:030:05:06

ALL TALK AT ONCE

0:05:060:05:08

The first two things were a bit slow for my taste.

0:05:080:05:11

As soon as I heard the dance music, I was right on it!

0:05:110:05:14

Well done, for two points.

0:05:140:05:16

Over to the Francophiles to pick a question.

0:05:160:05:18

-Horned Viper.

-The Horned Viper. What is the connection?

0:05:180:05:22

Here's your first clue.

0:05:220:05:25

Are those the Three Furies?

0:05:270:05:31

-The Muses?

-The Muses...

0:05:310:05:33

-No, the Muses...

-Next.

0:05:330:05:36

Those are the three little maids from school.

0:05:380:05:41

-It's groups of three women. Do the next one, just in case.

-Next.

0:05:410:05:46

-Three sisters.

-Groups of three women.

0:05:480:05:51

-Famous groups of three women?

-Have another go.

0:05:510:05:54

The three little maids from school and the three sisters so...

0:05:540:05:58

They're known as "the three" something.

0:05:580:06:01

I can't accept it.

0:06:010:06:02

I must show the fourth clue to the Festival Fans

0:06:020:06:05

for a possible bonus point.

0:06:050:06:07

-They are sisters.

-Yes, sisters.

0:06:070:06:09

They are trios of fictional sisters.

0:06:090:06:12

The problem with your answer - obviously they're groups of three women -

0:06:120:06:16

that third clue - it's three women's names,

0:06:160:06:18

those are the women from Chekhov's Three Sisters.

0:06:180:06:21

Who are the others? Do you know?

0:06:210:06:23

There's three little maids from the Mikado.

0:06:230:06:26

King Lear - Cordelia, Goneril and Regan.

0:06:260:06:28

-They're probably...

-The Three Fates.

-Fates or something.

0:06:280:06:31

-I think they're the Three Furies.

-It's The Three Graces.

0:06:310:06:35

Trios of fictional sisters.

0:06:350:06:38

You get the bonus point and your chance to pick a question.

0:06:380:06:41

-Can we have Two Reeds, please?

-You can. What is the connection?

0:06:410:06:45

Here's the first clue.

0:06:450:06:48

Wiccan initiation. That's to do with witchcraft, isn't it?

0:06:480:06:51

Yes, but it's a particular practice. Next.

0:06:510:06:56

-Assets becoming Long Term?

-Oh, God!

0:06:560:06:59

That's interesting. What word describes that?

0:06:590:07:02

I don't think we've got this. Shall we...?

0:07:020:07:06

Next, please.

0:07:060:07:08

Oh, it's an age. It's a particular...

0:07:080:07:10

-It's a number of years.

-Oh, it's an age, isn't it?

0:07:100:07:13

-14?

-How sure are you?

0:07:130:07:15

-Shall we go for the fourth one?

-OK.

0:07:150:07:18

Next.

0:07:180:07:20

Five seconds.

0:07:220:07:23

-Oh...

-Is it days?

-BELL

0:07:230:07:26

A year and a day.

0:07:260:07:28

That is absolutely the answer. A year and a day.

0:07:280:07:31

That seemed to come on like a light bulb.

0:07:310:07:34

I was hoping I was going to get it after I pressed the buzzer!

0:07:340:07:38

They all take at least a year and a day.

0:07:380:07:41

A wiccan initiation, I'm assuming if you go to festivals, you must've undergone several!

0:07:410:07:45

-Not that I remember, but...

-I still walk with a limp!

0:07:450:07:50

Back to you, Francophiles.

0:07:500:07:52

-Twisted Flax.

-The Twisted Flax. These are picture clues.

0:07:520:07:56

What is the connection between them? Here's the first.

0:07:560:07:59

-That's Lee Marvin.

-Liberty Valance.

-The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance.

0:08:000:08:04

-I think -

-Next.

0:08:040:08:06

Is that Liberty X?

0:08:070:08:09

-Liberty.

-That is the answer. Coming in after two clues, you get three points.

0:08:090:08:14

You did not need to see the shop Liberty

0:08:140:08:15

or the Liberty Bell, the symbol of US freedom.

0:08:150:08:18

Very well done to you.

0:08:180:08:20

Festival Fans, that leaves the Water question for you.

0:08:200:08:24

What is the connection? Here's the first clue.

0:08:240:08:27

Small one-horse carriage. It could be counties.

0:08:280:08:31

-I think we should go...

-Go for next.

-Next.

0:08:310:08:35

Anglo-Indian 'Very good'. That's pukka, isn't it?

0:08:350:08:38

-Yes.

-Small one-horse carriage could be hansom, pukka...

0:08:380:08:43

-Erm...

-I think we should go for next.

0:08:430:08:45

I want to go next. Next.

0:08:450:08:49

-That's the markka.

-So, things that end with double Ks?

0:08:490:08:52

-Got double Ks in them.

-BELL

0:08:520:08:55

Things with double Ks in them?

0:08:550:08:57

I'll accept it. It's actually "kka" at the end.

0:08:570:08:59

That first one - not a carriage you'd have come across in Jane Austen -

0:08:590:09:03

an Indian carriage, the ekka.

0:09:030:09:06

The last clue, you didn't need, a chukka.

0:09:060:09:08

The "kka" at the end of the word. Well done. Two points to you.

0:09:080:09:13

Meaning, at the end of Round One,

0:09:130:09:15

that the Francophiles have got 4 points

0:09:150:09:18

and the Festival Fans are ahead with 6.

0:09:180:09:21

Round Two is the Sequences Round. The teams must still work out the connection,

0:09:230:09:27

but they may not see four clues because I want to know the fourth in the sequence.

0:09:270:09:31

Francophiles, you'll be going first again.

0:09:310:09:33

-Which hieroglyph would you like?

-Eye of Horus.

0:09:330:09:37

The Eye of Horus. OK.

0:09:370:09:39

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

0:09:390:09:42

It could be anything.

0:09:430:09:46

Next.

0:09:460:09:48

-The moon. Gibbous.

-Full. Half.

0:09:480:09:51

-Or is it quarter?

-Crescent...

-Shall we get the next one?

0:09:510:09:55

Next.

0:09:550:09:58

First quarter...

0:09:580:09:59

-I think it's half.

-Erm...

-I think it's half.

0:09:590:10:02

BELL Half?

0:10:020:10:05

I'm afraid that's not the answer.

0:10:050:10:07

There's a possible bonus chance for the Festival Fans.

0:10:070:10:10

-Full.

-OK.

0:10:100:10:11

-Full.

-That's not it, either.

0:10:110:10:13

I think both...

0:10:130:10:15

-Waning gibbous?

-You're getting close. It is just gibbous. They are phases of the moon.

0:10:150:10:20

But you sounded sure, so...!

0:10:200:10:22

And the three-quarter moon is the gibbous.

0:10:220:10:25

All of you kicking yourselves. Never mind.

0:10:250:10:28

You'll remember next time it comes out and the werewolves are howling.

0:10:280:10:31

Perhaps that's just in my garden.

0:10:310:10:33

-Festival Fans, your chance to pick a question.

-Horned Viper, please.

0:10:330:10:36

Horned Viper. What is the fourth in this sequence?

0:10:360:10:40

Here's the first.

0:10:400:10:41

Oh, yes! It's, erm, the members of, erm,

0:10:430:10:48

the Sugababes, but I don't know who the current ones are.

0:10:480:10:51

-Go for the next one.

-Is it even going to help?

0:10:510:10:54

-No.

-Say next.

-Next.

0:10:540:10:58

Heidi Range... I just don't know who the last member is.

0:10:590:11:03

-Go for the next one.

-Next.

0:11:030:11:06

I think the originals have reformed.

0:11:060:11:09

-So -

-Press the button.

-BELL

0:11:090:11:11

So we want the same as...

0:11:110:11:14

-Donaghy, Buena and Buchanan.

-Not the answer, I'm afraid.

0:11:140:11:17

There's a bonus chance for you, Francophiles.

0:11:170:11:20

Er...

0:11:200:11:21

Donaghy, Buena, Range.

0:11:210:11:25

That's not it, either.

0:11:250:11:27

I'm staring at my screen because I'm so far out of my comfort zone, I'd need binoculars to see it.

0:11:270:11:32

You know these are successive line-ups of the Sugababes,

0:11:320:11:36

a pop group, in chronological order,

0:11:360:11:40

and the answer should be Range, Berrabah, Ewen.

0:11:400:11:44

They've been joined by Jade Ewen.

0:11:440:11:46

I know the band but I don't know the members.

0:11:460:11:49

-Have you seen them at any festivals?

-No.

0:11:490:11:52

What are these festivals? It's just you drinking beer alone in the garden, isn't it?

0:11:520:11:56

Absolutely.

0:11:560:11:58

-Your turn, then, Francophiles, to choose a question.

-Twisted Flax.

0:11:580:12:01

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

0:12:010:12:05

3125...

0:12:050:12:08

-Is that the perfect number?

-I don't know.

0:12:080:12:10

Next.

0:12:100:12:13

That's 16... 16 squared.

0:12:130:12:16

So...

0:12:160:12:18

So, what's the next one? Is it 25 squared?

0:12:190:12:22

So four...

0:12:220:12:24

-It's going to be one.

-Shall we go next?

0:12:240:12:27

It's going to be one, isn't it? Next.

0:12:270:12:30

That's three so it's going to be 2 times 2 times 2, which is 8.

0:12:300:12:34

-That's 4 times 4 times 4.

-So it's 2 times 2 times 2.

0:12:340:12:37

Say 4. 4.

0:12:370:12:39

-8.

-I'm afraid that's not the answer.

0:12:390:12:41

There's a possible bonus chance for the Festival Fans.

0:12:410:12:45

-4.

-The answer is 4,

0:12:450:12:47

as I think you knew, Sam, didn't you?

0:12:470:12:50

It's 5 times 5 times 5.

0:12:500:12:52

-It's 5 to the 5, 4 to the 4, 3 to the 3...

-Ah, 2 to the 2!

0:12:520:12:56

That's it. It's numbers to the power of themselves.

0:12:560:12:59

When you said 16 squared, it's back one step,

0:12:590:13:02

4 to the power of itself and 2 to the power of itself would be 4.

0:13:020:13:06

You get the bonus point, Festival Fans, and the chance to pick a question.

0:13:060:13:11

-Let's have Lion.

-Go with Lion.

0:13:110:13:14

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

0:13:140:13:18

Lanzarote.

0:13:180:13:20

-Islands.

-Are they increasing in order in their island group?

0:13:200:13:23

-It's in the Canaries.

-Shall we try the next one?

0:13:230:13:26

Let's have the next one.

0:13:260:13:29

Gran Canaria. Is it in decreasing size?

0:13:290:13:32

Is Lanzarote the biggest?

0:13:320:13:34

I don't know. Do you want the next one?

0:13:340:13:37

Next.

0:13:370:13:39

-Fuerteventura.

-Tenerife?

-Tenerife, yes.

0:13:390:13:42

-Is it?

-Yes.

-OK. BELL

0:13:420:13:44

-We'll try Tenerife.

-That is the answer.

0:13:440:13:47

-Why is it the answer?

-Canary Islands.

0:13:470:13:50

-In order of...?

-Size, going...

0:13:500:13:53

-..upwards.

-They're getting bigger.

0:13:530:13:55

Tenerife would be the largest Canary Island by size. Well done.

0:13:550:13:59

Back to you, Francophiles.

0:13:590:14:00

-Two Reeds.

-Two Reeds.

0:14:000:14:03

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

0:14:030:14:06

Candidate Master.

0:14:060:14:08

-Oh, it's chess.

-Chess.

0:14:080:14:11

I don't know what the number is for Grand Master.

0:14:110:14:13

-It's not going to help, is it?

-Next.

0:14:130:14:16

-FIDE Master.

-I think 2,500 - Grand Master.

-Yes.

0:14:170:14:21

BELL 2,500 - Grand Master.

0:14:210:14:24

Well deduced. After two clues, you get three points.

0:14:240:14:26

They are the FIDE rankings in chess, with the minimum rating to get that,

0:14:260:14:31

and it'd be 2,500 for Grand Master. Well done.

0:14:310:14:34

Festival Fans, you have Water again.

0:14:340:14:36

Left till last for a second time. Almost suspicious.

0:14:360:14:40

You might guess that these are going to be picture clues.

0:14:400:14:43

What would you expect to see in the fourth picture? Here's the first.

0:14:430:14:47

Obviously somebody with big ears, isn't it?

0:14:490:14:51

It could be Dwarves in terms of the order of alphabetic...

0:14:510:14:56

-Go for the next one.

-Next.

0:14:560:14:59

What's that?

0:15:000:15:02

-I don't get that one.

-Next?

0:15:030:15:06

-Next?

-Go for the next.

0:15:060:15:09

Next.

0:15:090:15:11

Big hands.

0:15:110:15:13

-Big ears.

-Distortions, aren't they?

-So...

0:15:130:15:15

Big ears, big eye, big hands.

0:15:150:15:18

HE MUMBLES

0:15:200:15:23

-Click it, click it, click it.

-Three seconds.

0:15:230:15:26

Marianne, you must speak.

0:15:260:15:27

-Feet.

-Feet? Big feet?

0:15:270:15:30

That is not the answer. Francophiles, the chance of a bonus.

0:15:300:15:33

-Big teeth?

-That is what I'm looking for.

0:15:330:15:36

THEY GROAN

0:15:360:15:38

That's such a quiz noise, the sound of three people going "Oh!" all at once.

0:15:380:15:43

-Why is it big teeth?

-Little Red Riding Hood.

0:15:430:15:45

That is it.

0:15:450:15:47

It is what the suspicious Little Red Riding Hood is saying to the hairy grandma,

0:15:470:15:52

"What big ears, big eyes, big hands, what big teeth you have"

0:15:520:15:56

because Grandma is in fact a wolf.

0:15:560:15:59

At the end of Round Two, then, the Francophiles are up to 8 points

0:15:590:16:03

but the Festival Fans are ahead with 9.

0:16:030:16:06

Time for the Connecting Wall.

0:16:080:16:10

Still groups of four clues, but this time there are four groups.

0:16:100:16:14

16 clues in total, all jumbled up, only one perfect solution.

0:16:140:16:19

Festival Fans, you will be going first this time.

0:16:190:16:21

-You have the choice - Lion or Water.

-Can we have Lion, please?

-You can.

0:16:210:16:26

You've got two-and-a-half minutes to solve it,

0:16:260:16:29

starting now.

0:16:290:16:32

OK, Hocus Pocus.

0:16:320:16:35

-That's a computer game.

-So you want Angry Birds...

0:16:350:16:38

-That sounds like it could be a...

-A computer game.

0:16:380:16:42

Hocus Pocus and Shazam are what wizards say.

0:16:420:16:45

-They say Sim Sala Bim, as well.

-Yes.

-And Expelliarmus.

0:16:450:16:47

-So try...

-Sim Sala Bim, Hocus Pocus, Shazam and Expelliarmus.

0:16:470:16:52

-No. So, what's a fifth that we can...?

-Abracadabra.

-OK.

0:16:520:16:56

So let's leave out...

0:16:560:16:59

We've left out Abracadabra so now we'll leave out Shazam.

0:16:590:17:04

-Expelliarmus.

-Yes.

-Try Shazam.

0:17:040:17:07

-Yes.

-That's it.

0:17:070:17:09

So, Stella - does that means star?

0:17:090:17:14

Vine, Pandora, Pandora's Box, The Rose, Angry Birds...

0:17:140:17:17

Instagram. What's Instagram? That's to do with the internet.

0:17:170:17:20

-Does that word mean anything to anybody?

-No.

0:17:200:17:23

Let's try some computer games. So you've got Fruit Ninja...

0:17:230:17:27

-Pandora.

-Pandora, Angry Birds and...

-Try that one.

0:17:270:17:32

Try Hocus Pocus and Angry Birds. Fruit Ninja and Pandora.

0:17:320:17:36

No. OK.

0:17:360:17:38

Eve, Embla...

0:17:380:17:39

Are they words you can add things to because they look short?

0:17:390:17:43

-You mean

-"Emblam",

-Even?

0:17:430:17:46

-Yes.

-Stella because you can put an R on it,

0:17:460:17:49

you can put an M on that, you can put an N on that.

0:17:490:17:53

Is there anything else you can put?

0:17:530:17:55

-Vine?

-Try Vine, but I'm not convinced.

0:17:550:17:58

-No.

-Erm... What else is...?

0:17:580:18:02

-What's Beaches?

-Maybe even that, I don't know.

0:18:020:18:05

No. Erm...

0:18:050:18:07

Er, Stella, The Rose...

0:18:070:18:10

-Pandora and Eve are both creations.

-They are, aren't they?

0:18:100:18:15

-So, you think maybe that and then...?

-Embla?

0:18:150:18:20

-Yes.

-Remember, it's three strikes and you're out.

0:18:200:18:23

They're first women, I think.

0:18:230:18:26

-So The Rose is a song, Hocus Pocus is a song.

-Yes.

0:18:260:18:30

Beaches... Instagram...

0:18:300:18:34

Are these things you can do on the internet?

0:18:340:18:37

-Do you want to try this and what?

-Beaches.

0:18:370:18:42

No. Hocus Pocus, Angry Birds.

0:18:420:18:45

-Yes. Do you want that?

-Instagram, yes.

0:18:450:18:48

-No.

-You've got ten seconds for the last attempt.

0:18:480:18:51

-Keep bashing away, then.

-Erm...

0:18:510:18:54

-I've no idea.

-Vine, The Rose.

-No, we had that combination before.

0:18:540:18:57

-Quickly!

-That's all your attempts.

0:18:570:19:00

The wall has frozen, but you found two groups for two points.

0:19:000:19:03

Bonus points for the connections. What about that first group?

0:19:030:19:07

-Things wizards would say.

-When casting spells.

0:19:070:19:10

I didn't want to say them out loud. Heaven knows what might've happened in the studio.

0:19:100:19:14

Those are all magic expressions for wizards and magicians.

0:19:140:19:17

What about the next one - Eve, Izanami, Embla, Pandora?

0:19:170:19:21

First women?

0:19:210:19:23

Women in creations myths. Eve we know, of course.

0:19:230:19:27

-Izanami you didn't know?

-Probably the Japanese creation.

0:19:270:19:30

Yes, who was originally a goddess but also died, so yes.

0:19:300:19:34

-And Pandora -

-Is Embla Celtic?

0:19:340:19:37

-Norse mythology.

-Norse mythology.

0:19:370:19:39

Well done. You can still get points for the connections you didn't find.

0:19:390:19:42

Let's resolve the wall.

0:19:420:19:44

How about this - Beaches, Hocus Pocus, Stella, The Rose?

0:19:440:19:49

-Did you think those were songs?

-Hocus Pocus was and The Rose.

0:19:490:19:52

That's the only thing I can come up with.

0:19:520:19:55

Just a minute. Erm...

0:19:550:19:57

-Bette Midler.

-Bette Midler, yes.

-I have to ask for an answer.

0:19:570:20:01

-Bette Midler films.

-At the last minute!

0:20:010:20:03

-They are Bette Midler films.

-I should've got that.

0:20:030:20:06

It suddenly came to you. Are you a Bette Midler fan?

0:20:060:20:09

-She's quite good.

-You cried at Beaches, didn't you?

0:20:090:20:13

-I've cried at Love Actually so...

-We've all cried at Beaches.

0:20:130:20:17

Well done. You grabbed that out of the bag at the last minute.

0:20:170:20:20

Angry Birds, Vine, Instagram, Fruit Ninja?

0:20:200:20:25

-Stuff people play on their phones.

-Yes.

-Apps or something?

0:20:250:20:29

I'll accept apps. I don't think I could've taken games,

0:20:290:20:32

but apps...

0:20:320:20:34

Vine and Instagram are to do with taking pictures and sharing those,

0:20:340:20:38

but Fruit Ninja and Angry Birds are games. They are all apps.

0:20:380:20:41

Very well done. That's two points for the groups and four bonus points for the connections.

0:20:410:20:47

That is a total of 6 points.

0:20:470:20:49

It's time to say hello to the Francophiles,

0:20:490:20:51

but we'll say it in English so that they understand.

0:20:510:20:53

They get their own Connecting Wall. 16 fresh clues still need sorting into four groups of four.

0:20:530:20:58

Hello, Francophiles. You're going to get the Water Wall.

0:20:580:21:01

You've got two-and-a-half minutes to solve it,

0:21:010:21:04

starting now.

0:21:040:21:07

OK, erm...

0:21:080:21:10

-Phoenix, Thunderbird...

-Garuda...

0:21:100:21:13

-Phoenix.

-Which one?

-Or Harpy.

-Harpy.

0:21:130:21:18

Yes? Let's have a look at the others.

0:21:180:21:20

-Right, got that.

-So Rubber band, CD, Equus...

0:21:220:21:26

Equus is a...

0:21:260:21:27

Alec Baldwin, River or Joaquin Phoenix, Jeff Bridges - these are actors.

0:21:270:21:31

David Arquette.

0:21:310:21:33

What, specifically, connects them?

0:21:330:21:37

Let's leave that out. There's Wilson in there.

0:21:370:21:40

-Equus is a play by, erm...

-Shaffer.

-The others...

0:21:400:21:45

THEY MUMBLE

0:21:450:21:47

That's a missile, that's a missile, that's a missile.

0:21:470:21:50

Yes. Probably Phoenix.

0:21:500:21:54

-Phantom. So Phoenix... What else shall we say?

-Dignity.

0:21:540:21:58

No. Maybe Equus.

0:21:580:22:01

-Or maybe CDs.

-What's CDs and Rubber? Rubber band, CD...

0:22:010:22:05

-CD...

-CD drive.

0:22:050:22:09

-Are these people with famous brothers? Alec Baldwin and

-Eric.

0:22:090:22:14

-River Phoenix. Joaquin Phoenix. Jeff Bridges.

-Wilson?

0:22:140:22:17

-Shall we just try these?

-Yes.

0:22:170:22:20

Yes, let's...

0:22:200:22:22

Remember, it's three strikes and you're out.

0:22:220:22:26

So, erm, Bridges...

0:22:260:22:28

Phantom of the Opera.

0:22:280:22:30

Calories... Energy. Calories...

0:22:300:22:35

Calorie counter. You get a CD counter.

0:22:350:22:38

Rubber... Rubber band.

0:22:380:22:40

Bridges. Interceptor. Shall we try missiles again?

0:22:400:22:44

Interceptor, Phantom and then two other missiles.

0:22:440:22:46

It's not going to be calories.

0:22:460:22:48

-Phantom...

-Why don't you take those out again?

0:22:480:22:52

There's something maybe... You can lose calories,

0:22:520:22:56

you can wipe a CD, you can...

0:22:560:22:59

-Mm.

-Rubber, Bridges...

0:22:590:23:02

You can lose your dignity! Erm...

0:23:020:23:06

-30 seconds.

-Shall we start pressing?

0:23:060:23:09

Equus and Dignity?

0:23:100:23:13

OK.

0:23:130:23:15

You've solved the wall, possibly by accident.

0:23:150:23:18

-No, no, no!

-Let's find out. Four points for those groups. What about the connections?

0:23:180:23:22

Garuda, Roc, Harpy, Thunderbird?

0:23:220:23:26

-They're all mythical birds.

-They're mythical winged creatures.

0:23:260:23:30

The Garuda, from Buddhist myth, the Persian bird of prey is the Roc

0:23:300:23:34

and the Thunderbird is a Native American creature, so-called because...?

0:23:340:23:38

-I don't know.

-Its wings caused thunder.

0:23:380:23:41

They didn't but they were believed to.

0:23:410:23:43

The next group - Wilson, Phoenix, Arquette, Baldwin.

0:23:430:23:47

-Acting siblings.

-Famous actors with brothers who also act.

0:23:470:23:51

That's it. Sets of acting siblings.

0:23:510:23:54

And the next one - Phantom, Interceptor, Dignity, Equus.

0:23:540:23:58

-Either plays or missiles.

-Shall we say missiles?

0:23:580:24:01

Shall we say that?

0:24:010:24:04

Missiles.

0:24:040:24:05

They could be used as missiles, I suppose, but I can't accept it.

0:24:050:24:09

They are luxury cars.

0:24:090:24:11

-Ah!

-Yes. The Rolls-Royce Phantom,

0:24:110:24:14

the Jensen Interceptor and the Mitsubishi Dignity.

0:24:140:24:19

If you did lose sight of it, "Ooh, I've lost my Dignity!" you could tell the police.

0:24:190:24:23

And the Hyundai Equus cars.

0:24:230:24:26

The last group - Bridges, Calories, Rubber, CD.

0:24:260:24:30

Things that you count on? It's not, is it?

0:24:320:24:34

-I need an answer.

-Erm...

0:24:340:24:37

Things you can cross.

0:24:370:24:39

-No, that's too long.

-Things you can count.

0:24:390:24:42

Things you can count? I'm not sure you could count rubber.

0:24:420:24:45

Obviously, keen Only Connect fans would count their CDs before alphabetising them,

0:24:450:24:50

but no, you're going to kick yourselves.

0:24:500:24:53

-Things you can burn.

-THEY GROAN

0:24:530:24:57

Burn bridges, calories, rubber and burn a CD.

0:24:570:25:01

But you did get four points for the groups you found, plus two more connecting points.

0:25:010:25:05

That is a total of 6.

0:25:050:25:06

Let's see how that leaves the scores going into the Final Round.

0:25:060:25:10

The Francophiles have got 14 points,

0:25:100:25:13

the Festival Fans have got 15 points.

0:25:130:25:18

If you want to play Connecting Walls you'll find some on our website,

0:25:180:25:21

where you can also write your own.

0:25:210:25:23

We're going to play the Missing Vowels Round,

0:25:230:25:25

well-known names, phrases or sayings from which we've removed the vowels and spaced up the consonants.

0:25:250:25:30

What are those hidden clues? Fingers on buzzers, teams.

0:25:300:25:34

I'm going to tell you the connections up front.

0:25:340:25:37

The first group are all...

0:25:370:25:40

Fans?

0:25:440:25:45

-Banquette.

-Correct.

0:25:450:25:48

-Francophiles?

-Chaise Longue.

-Bien sur.

0:25:500:25:54

-Fans?

-Is it a "poofay" or however you say it?

0:25:560:25:59

-Pouffe.

-I'll accept. You got the vowels right.

0:25:590:26:03

Next clue.

0:26:030:26:06

Don't know this one? It's pillion. Next category...

0:27:350:27:38

-The Sound of Music. END-OF-QUIZ JINGLE

0:27:410:27:44

Getting those words in just as the buzzer goes off.

0:27:450:27:49

Meaning, at the end of the quiz,

0:27:490:27:53

the Festival Fans have got 20 points,

0:27:530:27:56

but in a last-minute turnaround, with 23 points,

0:27:560:27:58

it's the Francophiles.

0:27:580:28:01

Very well done. You are through.

0:28:010:28:04

But in our complicated new format, Festival Fans, well done, you are through!

0:28:040:28:09

It's just a slightly longer route to the semifinal.

0:28:090:28:12

Nobody's leaving. Nobody's going home. Nobody's going anywhere.

0:28:120:28:16

These days, Only Connect really is like a gym.

0:28:160:28:19

Once they've joined, they can't unjoin.

0:28:190:28:23
