0:00:21 > 0:00:24Hello, and welcome to a brand-new episode of Only Connect.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Well, I say brand new. The rounds are the same, the set is the same,
0:00:27 > 0:00:29I haven't really done anything new with my hair.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31But if you pay close attention,
0:00:31 > 0:00:35you'll notice that the content of the questions is slightly different.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38Yes, like bar codes and snowflakes,
0:00:38 > 0:00:40each episode of Only Connect is unique.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42Although, I'll be honest, once the show starts,
0:00:42 > 0:00:45if we don't have flags, jazz, and Olympic opening ceremonies,
0:00:45 > 0:00:47I'll have lost a sizeable bet.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Let's meet the teams.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53On my right, Margaret Gabica, a modern languages graduate
0:00:53 > 0:00:55who conducts a children's choir
0:00:55 > 0:00:57and can sing The Happy Wanderer in Latin.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59Chris Hern, a retired teacher
0:00:59 > 0:01:03who once hid from a black bear in Colorado,
0:01:03 > 0:01:04and Stuart Hern, a maths graduate
0:01:04 > 0:01:06who works as a business analyst
0:01:06 > 0:01:10and once broke up a fight between two camels.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12All students of the heavenly Welsh language,
0:01:12 > 0:01:14they are the Welsh Learners.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Captain Stuart, welcome back.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- Thank you very much.- You beat the Software Engineers in your heat.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22What was your secret to success there?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25I think we survived basically with a controlled panic,
0:01:25 > 0:01:28so we're hoping that's going to pull us through this time as well.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30Having won that, you can't be
0:01:30 > 0:01:32knocked out tonight, even if you lose.
0:01:32 > 0:01:33So there's nothing to panic about.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35I think we can probably manage
0:01:35 > 0:01:38to pull together a little bit of panic regardless.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Well, good luck. Let's meet your opponents.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44On my left, Adam Barr, an astrophysics student
0:01:44 > 0:01:47who was once falsely accused of setting a naval vessel on fire.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51Richard Gilbert, a postgraduate student
0:01:51 > 0:01:55and part-time book-seller who enjoys song-writing and playing cricket.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57And their captain, Rachael Neiman,
0:01:57 > 0:02:00a PhD student who collects snow globes,
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Japanese dolls and ceramic cakes.
0:02:02 > 0:02:03United by a love of vinyl,
0:02:03 > 0:02:05they are the Record Collectors.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09So, how have the Record Collectors been preparing for their new heat?
0:02:09 > 0:02:13Mainly been sleeping and trying not to panic too much.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16That sounds like excellent preparation strategy.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Good luck to you, too.
0:02:18 > 0:02:19On with Round One,
0:02:19 > 0:02:22what is the connection between four apparently random clues?
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Welsh Learners, you won the toss so will be going first.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Please choose your Egyptian hieroglyph.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29- Two Reeds, please.- OK.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32What is the connection between these four apparently random clues?
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Your time starts...now.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39- New Objectivity... - THEY WHISPER
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Next, please.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Absolutely nothing at all.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50Next, please.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53- Well, the same.- Norwegian...
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Norwegian, Scandinavian...
0:02:56 > 0:03:00- Are they TV programmes translated from...- Yes.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02- Scandinavian programmes.- Yeah.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Do we want to go for the last one? We've only got one.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06We need the bridge, so... Next, please.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13- I don't know.- No.- Three seconds.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17BELL Scandinavian dramas.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19I think that's an absolutely brilliant guess.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21It's completely wrong.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23You mean a show where people wear interesting jumpers
0:03:23 > 0:03:25- and murder each other? - Absolutely, yeah.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27It's not what it is. Although it certainly could be.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Record Collectors, a chance for a bonus point.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33We'll go for art movements.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35They are all German art movements.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Does anybody want to have a go at translating these words into German?
0:03:40 > 0:03:46- Neue...- The Blue Rider was Das Blaue Reiter.- Yeah,- Der- Blaue Reiter.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49The first one, you're not far off there, Rachael.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Neue Sachlichkeit is New Objectivity,
0:03:51 > 0:03:54that was a 1920s challenge to Expressionism.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58- Bauhaus?- House of Construction is Bauhaus, and The Bridge, Die Brucke.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00All German art movements.
0:04:00 > 0:04:01So, well done.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04You get the bonus point, and your chance to choose a question.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08- Horned Viper, please. - OK. Horned Viper.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11What is the connection between these clues?
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Here's the first.
0:04:12 > 0:04:17- The Grasshopper Lies Heavy...- So that's a fictional novel in the...
0:04:17 > 0:04:21- Are they just fictional novels? Shall we go for that?- Take next.
0:04:21 > 0:04:22Next, please.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28- The Dancing Cavalier. - Are they fictional novels?
0:04:30 > 0:04:32- Novels within novels.- Shall we say that? Shall we risk it?- Yes.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34OK. BELL
0:04:34 > 0:04:37We're going to say fictional novels within novels.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41I'm going to give you another go.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- So, alternate history novels... - OK, alternate history novels
0:04:44 > 0:04:45within novels.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47I can't accept that, so Welsh Learners,
0:04:47 > 0:04:48the chance of a bonus point.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51I'm going to show you the other two clues.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55They are all plays within plays, or films within films.
0:04:55 > 0:04:59- Or programmes within programmes.- It's a range of genres, that's right.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01They're stories within stories. You'd already seen
0:05:01 > 0:05:05The Dancing Cavalier, that's in the film musical Singing In The Rain.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08The Grasshopper Lies Heavy is a novel within a novel
0:05:08 > 0:05:11by Philip K Dick. The Mouse-trap, what's that?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- It's in Hamlet.- It's the play in Hamlet.- It's the play in Hamlet.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16- And the Itchy & Scratchy Show, of course...- The Simpsons.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20The cartoon inside The Simpsons, yes. A range of genres.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22And these are all stories within stories.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24So you got that bonus, Welsh Learners.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27- Which question?- Twisted Flax, please.- Twisted Flax.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29- CHIME - Ah, the music question.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33What connects these lovely audible clues? Here's the first.
0:05:34 > 0:05:38MUSIC: "Resurrection Symphony" by Mahler
0:05:44 > 0:05:45Next, please.
0:05:45 > 0:05:53MUSIC: "I Am The Resurrection" by The Stone Roses
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Next, please.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04MUSIC: "Christ The Lord Is Risen Again" by Charles Wesley
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Next, please.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08MUSIC: "Thriller" by Michael Jackson
0:06:08 > 0:06:10- Thriller.- Five seconds....
0:06:12 > 0:06:13BELL
0:06:16 > 0:06:19They're all books by Stephen King.
0:06:19 > 0:06:20Ooh, my goodness me.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23You're guessing very well today. I mean, wrongly, but inspired.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26No, that's not it. Collectors. Another bonus chance.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28- Shall we say resurrection? - Film directors, maybe?
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- Oscar-winning...? - Film directors? OK.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34- We'll say film directors. - Film directors is not the answer.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36You were closer with what you were going to guess.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39- They all feature a return from the dead.- Oh!
0:06:39 > 0:06:42We heard Mahler's 2nd Symphony, the Resurrection Symphony.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45The second one was I Am The Resurrection.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46I think The Stone Roses, is that?
0:06:46 > 0:06:49And then the Wesley hymn, Christ The Lord Is Risen Today, and Thriller.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53So, three about Jesus and one about zombies.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Please address your complaints to the BBC, Manchester.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58No points there, then.
0:06:58 > 0:06:59Record Collectors, choose a question.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02- Eye of Horus, please. - OK, the Eye of Horus.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06What is the connection between these clues? Here's the first.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- Wee. Scottish for small. - Shall we go next?
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Next, please.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Unhyphenated...
0:07:16 > 0:07:22- Next, please.- Penultimate. - Wee, unhyphenated...
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Penultimate...
0:07:24 > 0:07:26- I think, yeah, next.- Next, please.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Pentasyllabic. - Oh, all five... So...
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Um...
0:07:36 > 0:07:40Antepenultimate...
0:07:40 > 0:07:41Five seconds.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44I think we're going to have to pass...
0:07:44 > 0:07:48I'm afraid the time is up. Didn't buzz in time.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51So, Welsh Learners, do you want to have a guess?
0:07:51 > 0:07:55- We'll go for games consoles. - That's not it.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58I suppose Wee would be, but it's spelt differently, isn't it? Yes.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00No, I rather love this question.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03I rather love it, although you spot it or you don't.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06They are autological words. Words that describe themselves.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Wee is a tiny little wee word.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13Unhyphenated is unhyphenated, penultimate is the penultimate
0:08:13 > 0:08:18word you see, and pentasyllabic has five syllables.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21So they describe themselves. That was that one.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25- Welsh Learners, your chance to choose.- Lion, please.- OK.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29What connects these four clues? Here's the first.
0:08:31 > 0:08:36Rainfall, something to do with rainfall, isn't it?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38OK. Next, please.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41Yeah, they're all things that go with ice,
0:08:41 > 0:08:44maybe meteorological terms or something.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47- Do you want to try the next one?- Yes, yeah.
0:08:49 > 0:08:54BELL They are all meteorological isos.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56You look very nervous there, Margaret.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58But coming in after two clues, you get three points.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Meteorological isopleths. There are the other two clues.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04- Can you tell me what you mean by that?- Apparently...
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Isohyet is rainfall. Isohel is the sunshine.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Isobar, pressure, and therm, temperature.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12That's absolutely right. Lines on a weather map.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16Meteorological isopleths was the connection. Very well done.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17Back to you, then, Record Collectors,
0:09:17 > 0:09:19for the last question, Water.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21These will be picture clues, obviously,
0:09:21 > 0:09:23because we haven't seen any of those.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25What connects these pictures?
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Here's the first.
0:09:27 > 0:09:28It's a picture of...Panama.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31And I think it's highlighting the canal or the city.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33- So, next one.- OK, next, please.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Mexico... So, capital cities
0:09:36 > 0:09:39that are...named after the country they are in.
0:09:39 > 0:09:44- OK, so eponymous... OK. Yeah. - You know what I mean.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46BELL
0:09:46 > 0:09:48- Um, countries...- Cities.
0:09:48 > 0:09:52Sorry, cities that have the capital city that has the same
0:09:52 > 0:09:53name as the country.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56You didn't need to see Guatemala City or Kuwait City.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Coming in after two clues, you also get three points.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02Capital cities that share their name with the country. Very well done.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05So that means that the end of Round One, the Welsh Learners have
0:10:05 > 0:10:09four points, and the Record Collectors have four points.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15Let's see if we get some clear blue water in round two. Sequences.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17You still have to work out the connection between four clues,
0:10:17 > 0:10:21but you won't see the fourth one, cos I want to know what that is.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Welsh Learners, you're first again. Which would you like?
0:10:23 > 0:10:26- Let's hope for some clear blue Water, please.- OK.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28I'll give you the Water question.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30What would be the next clue in this sequence?
0:10:30 > 0:10:33Here's the first.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Yekaterinburg... No?
0:10:36 > 0:10:39- No, that was where they were assassinated, wasn't it?- Who?
0:10:39 > 0:10:44The Russian... The Romanovs. They were assassinated.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46- Next?- Yes.- Next, please.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52- I've never heard of that one. - We'll have to go next.
0:10:52 > 0:10:53Next, please.
0:10:55 > 0:11:00- Oh, perhaps it's cities in order, so it will be Moscow.- Moscow.- Yeah.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02THEY WHISPER
0:11:07 > 0:11:10BELL
0:11:10 > 0:11:12- First, Moscow.- Ridiculous.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15- No! It- is- first Moscow. That is the right answer.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18They are Russian cities in order of population size.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21And the biggest would be Moscow. Well done.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Over to you, Collectors. What would you like?
0:11:23 > 0:11:27- Shall we have Two Reeds, maybe? Two Reeds, please.- Two Reeds, OK.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29What would be the fourth in this sequence?
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Here's the first.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Highway from Tampa to Daytona Beach.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38- Is it going to be numbers?- Yeah, it's going to be numbers. So take next.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Next, please.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44Triatomic hydrogen, so that's...
0:11:44 > 0:11:48- Er, next.- Next, please.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Ah, Weekday Guardian Supplement.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54- G2.- So we're looking for something one, then, are we?
0:11:54 > 0:11:57So, what shall we say?
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- H1, G2!.- So, H3...
0:12:00 > 0:12:02G, H...
0:12:02 > 0:12:04So, F1. Formula One.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07BELL Formula One?
0:12:07 > 0:12:10That's it, we phrased it as top-level motor racing,
0:12:10 > 0:12:13but you're right, Formula One would be an acceptable answer. And why?
0:12:13 > 0:12:16They are letters of the alphabet going backwards with accompanying
0:12:16 > 0:12:19- four, three, two, one.- That's it.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21You knew that triatomic hydrogen was H3
0:12:21 > 0:12:22and the Guardian supplement is G2.
0:12:22 > 0:12:28Highway from Tampa to Daytona Beach is the I4, the interstate 4, I4.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31Well done, well done. Back to Welsh Learners, to pick a question.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33- Eye of Horus, please.- Eye of Horus.
0:12:33 > 0:12:39What would come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:12:39 > 0:12:44- No idea.- I mean, again, it's all lower case.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46THEY WHISPER
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Yeah. Next, please.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57Next? Yeah. Next, please.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02Oh, it was Kim Jong... Is it...?
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Yeah, is it... What's his name now?
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Kim Jong-un. Yeah. Yeah?
0:13:08 > 0:13:11BELL Un.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Un is the right answer, yes.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17I think you know this is the ruling family in North Korea.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Can you tell me their full names?
0:13:19 > 0:13:22Well, I'm assuming they're all Kim Jongs.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26If they were, I wouldn't really ask you. No, it's Kim Jong-jik...
0:13:26 > 0:13:27I wish you had been able to.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Kim Il-sung, Kim Jong-il and Kim Jong-un.
0:13:31 > 0:13:32I'd also have accepted
0:13:32 > 0:13:33song, nam, chul and jong.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36I have no idea why, but apparently I would have accepted those.
0:13:36 > 0:13:37Record Collectors?
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Flax, please. Twisted Flax.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Yes, you can't have an untwisted one.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44We've only got twisted clues here. What is the fourth in this sequence?
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Here's the first.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48The zoo.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52They're not... OK, we'll go next.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54- Next, please.- Legs & Co.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Yeah, it'll be Pan's People, then. Top Of The Pops dance troupes.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59I thought that from Zoo, but...
0:13:59 > 0:14:02- Shall we risk...?- Is that the right one, at number four, though?
0:14:02 > 0:14:04I don't know, but they are the most famous one, aren't they?
0:14:04 > 0:14:07Do you want to go next or shall we risk it?
0:14:07 > 0:14:09- I think we need to. - Shall we risk it?- Yeah, go for it.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12BELL Pan's People.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Yes, the answer is Pan's People.
0:14:14 > 0:14:15Next would have been Ruby Flipper.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17They are dance troupes
0:14:17 > 0:14:19on Top Of The Pops, going backwards through time.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Very well done, and back to you,
0:14:21 > 0:14:22Welsh Learners, for a choice.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Horned Viper, please.
0:14:24 > 0:14:25OK, Horned Viper.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27These are going to be picture clues.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Tell me what you might see in the fourth picture.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Here's the first.
0:14:33 > 0:14:37- Stripes.- Stripes.- Next, please.
0:14:39 > 0:14:40What on earth is that?
0:14:42 > 0:14:46A sponge of some sort? Coral?
0:14:46 > 0:14:47Is it pasta?
0:14:50 > 0:14:51Or it could be tripe.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55- That would be an anagram, tripe-stripe.- Yes!
0:14:55 > 0:14:58So then it would be ripe. Hang on.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01Shall we try and get another one or no?
0:15:01 > 0:15:04Maybe take it.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07Five seconds.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09BELL
0:15:09 > 0:15:12A tear. Or a rip.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14I'm afraid that's not the answer,
0:15:14 > 0:15:16so I'm going to have to throw it
0:15:16 > 0:15:17over to the Record Collectors.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20I'll show you the next in the sequence.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22That's a rip. So, stripes...
0:15:22 > 0:15:24So, rip, it's...
0:15:24 > 0:15:27I can't give you long.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30No, that's too long,
0:15:30 > 0:15:33I'm sorry, for a bonus. No,
0:15:33 > 0:15:34it would be just something
0:15:34 > 0:15:35with the letter I.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38So, the newspaper that has that title, or of course,
0:15:38 > 0:15:40the square root of -1.
0:15:40 > 0:15:41Because you're taking
0:15:41 > 0:15:42a letter off each end.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44So stripes, tripe...
0:15:44 > 0:15:46It's not sponge or pasta,
0:15:46 > 0:15:47it's even more delicious, tripe.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49And then, take a letter off the end,
0:15:49 > 0:15:51each side of that,
0:15:51 > 0:15:52you get rip, and then I.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54So close, but not quite right.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Back to you, then, Record Collectors,
0:15:56 > 0:15:57for the last question. Lion.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59What would come fourth in this sequence?
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Here's the first.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05- Elinor.- Elinor, um...
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Shall we go next? Next, please.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Elizabeth.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12Oh, I think they are heroines
0:16:12 > 0:16:14in Jane Austen novels,
0:16:14 > 0:16:16going in the order they were written.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18- Shall we get the next one?- Yeah.
0:16:18 > 0:16:22Oh, unless they are age, in which case it would be... Next, please.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Fanny.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Fanny.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28So, I suppose it's going to be...
0:16:28 > 0:16:31It's going to be, shall we say...
0:16:31 > 0:16:33- Anne?- I think so.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37BELL Anne.
0:16:37 > 0:16:38Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40So, there's a bonus chance for you,
0:16:40 > 0:16:41Welsh Learners.
0:16:41 > 0:16:42Emma?
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Emma would be the right answer.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46It is Jane Austen heroines.
0:16:46 > 0:16:47Do you know the sequence?
0:16:47 > 0:16:49- I haven't a clue.- We do now.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51It's just in order of publications of the books.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54If it was ages, that wouldn't be the right sequence.
0:16:54 > 0:16:55But, yes, Anne would be...
0:16:55 > 0:16:59Anne is an ancient crone of about 27, isn't she, in Persuasion?
0:16:59 > 0:17:00The terrible tragedy -
0:17:00 > 0:17:02she's three years off 30
0:17:02 > 0:17:04and still no husband. Terrible!
0:17:04 > 0:17:07But Emma would be next in the sequence that we've got here.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09So, well done for the bonus.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Meaning at the end of Round Two,
0:17:11 > 0:17:14the Welsh Learners have nine points,
0:17:14 > 0:17:15the Record Collectors have
0:17:15 > 0:17:16nine points.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Let's see if this close-run thing is going to be equally tied
0:17:22 > 0:17:25after the Connecting Walls. I suspect it will be.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28I've looked at the walls, I'm predicting nil-nil.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31Record Collectors, it's your turn to go first this time.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Would you like Lion or Water?
0:17:33 > 0:17:35Water, please.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38OK. You've got the Braille wall there, Rachael.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42You have two and a half minutes to solve this wall,
0:17:42 > 0:17:44starting now.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45OK, so...
0:17:53 > 0:17:55So, Burmese, maybe python or something.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58- There is going to be Italian car companies.- Yeah.
0:17:58 > 0:18:03- Fiat, Lancia, yeah.- Maserati, Bul... Oh... Wrong.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08- Watch manufacturers as well. - Bulgari.- And Cartier.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10- Or jewellers.- Yeah, of course.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Jewellers.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17I've never heard of it, but we tried that.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Shall we try the jewellery manufacturers?
0:18:20 > 0:18:22Who else would it be?
0:18:22 > 0:18:24- Peggy maybe?- No.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31The only Graff I know is Steffi Graf.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34- But is it spelt like that? - Yeah, G-R-A-F-F.
0:18:36 > 0:18:37OK.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- Nod... Fictional countries? - The Land Of Nod, yeah.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Is there a land of...?
0:18:45 > 0:18:48Bulgari, yeah.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- Winston.- We tried that already. - Smith...
0:18:54 > 0:18:56You are halfway through the time.
0:18:58 > 0:18:59Nod off.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01Um...
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Burmese Days is a George Orwell book.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15I'm just doing random things on these.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19- What about Lancia?- Lancia is a car make, isn't it?- Oh, is it, as well?
0:19:19 > 0:19:21OK.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23But, um, it could be something else, I don't know.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25What about leave?
0:19:25 > 0:19:28I mean, it could have something to do with Orwell. Winston Smith is...
0:19:28 > 0:19:3045 seconds left.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Unless it is just Smith. We have got Peggy as well.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Yeah, we've got Peggy Smith.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40Winston, Bulgari, Burmese, Peggy Smith.
0:19:40 > 0:19:45Okay. The only thing I can think with Okay is OK Go, the...the band.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48Or OK Computer.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51- This is terrible.- 20 seconds.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56OK, Lancia, Maserati, Bertone, Ferrari is gone.
0:19:56 > 0:19:57They must be cars.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Shall we try Tiffany, Cartier?
0:19:59 > 0:20:01Try jewellery, yeah.
0:20:01 > 0:20:02Yes, we've got that.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Three strikes and you are out now,
0:20:04 > 0:20:06in just a few seconds.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08That's it!
0:20:08 > 0:20:11You have solved the wall with just a second or two to go,
0:20:11 > 0:20:13that's brilliant. Very well done.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15So, four points immediately for the groups.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17And what about the connections?
0:20:20 > 0:20:23- They are luxury car-makers. - Italian.- Yeah, Italian.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26They are Italian cars. Next one.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31- Jewellers.- Jewellery.- Yeah, just jewellers.- They are jewellers.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Graff Diamonds, that was one you weren't so sure about.
0:20:34 > 0:20:35Next one.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41- Are they all in...?- Orwell.
0:20:41 > 0:20:42Is George Orwell the connection?
0:20:42 > 0:20:44George Orwell is not the connection there.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48They are all, of course, horses ridden by Queen Elizabeth II.
0:20:48 > 0:20:49- OK.- Right.- But of course.
0:20:49 > 0:20:50The Queen's horses, of course.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52And the last one.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58- Um..- Um... Oh, something you can give?
0:20:58 > 0:21:00They are not all something you can give.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02I suppose you can give someone a Fiat if it is a car.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04You're close, it is to do with giving the nod.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07- They're words meaning authorisation or permission.- OK.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09You give someone leave, to give something the nod,
0:21:09 > 0:21:11to OK something.
0:21:11 > 0:21:16And fiat is the obscure one from the Latin fiat for authorisation.
0:21:16 > 0:21:17Yes.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19But four points for the groups you found
0:21:19 > 0:21:21and two more for the connections, that is a total of six.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Well done. Time to bring back the Welsh Learners
0:21:23 > 0:21:25and give them a new connecting wall -
0:21:25 > 0:21:2816 new clues all jumbled up, still need sorting in the same way.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Welsh Learners, it is
0:21:30 > 0:21:32the Lion wall that is going to be baring its claws at you.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36You have 2.5 minutes to solve it, starting now.
0:21:41 > 0:21:42Teacakes, that's all I know of.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44They're all part of...
0:21:47 > 0:21:50What have we got here? What is Cheeryble?
0:21:50 > 0:21:53- Cheeryble was a...- Try Gride.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57- OK, booze, drinks, right? - No, Cheeryble was a character in...
0:21:57 > 0:22:02- Squeers.- Squeers, yes. - OK, Dickens, is it?- Dickens, yes.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06- Tumbrel?- No, that's a chariot. - OK.- Try Gillard?- Nope.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Is it Menzies?
0:22:09 > 0:22:10No.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12- I can't think who it is. - What about...? Abbott.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14OK, shall we go for chariot?
0:22:14 > 0:22:16Cheeryble...
0:22:16 > 0:22:17- No, not...- Stagecoach.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20- Take that one off.- Sorry, Tumbrel.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23- And, um, what's the other one?- Gig.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Isn't Gillard one?
0:22:25 > 0:22:27I know she is a prime minister as well.
0:22:27 > 0:22:28- Oh, it's Australia's...- Yes.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32Menzies, Hawk, Gillard, Howard.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Wasn't Abbott one as well?
0:22:34 > 0:22:39Leave Menzies out. Leave Hawk out... Great.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42- Got somewhere. What's M&Co? - Isn't...? That a ladies' shop.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45That has something to do with birds.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Drambuie, Tunnock's...
0:22:47 > 0:22:50M&Co is a ladies' shopping... Tunnock's is teacakes.
0:22:50 > 0:22:51I know, I'm just mixing it.
0:22:53 > 0:22:54M&Co, M&Co...
0:22:54 > 0:22:58That's a ladies' shopping...
0:22:58 > 0:23:01Tonga. OK, Tonga is the Friendly Islands.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04Stagecoach...
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Shall we try and get...?
0:23:06 > 0:23:08You've got a minute left.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Gig, chariot, stagecoach, tumbrel.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Stagecoach may be a bit obvious,
0:23:14 > 0:23:16- so what else have we got? - Try hawk, gride...
0:23:20 > 0:23:21Tunnock's?
0:23:21 > 0:23:23It might not be a teacake, it might be some sort of bird.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25I wonder if M&Co is a drink.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Try...
0:23:27 > 0:23:29Gride, Tunnock's and...
0:23:33 > 0:23:35- OK.- Drambuie...
0:23:35 > 0:23:38You've got 30 seconds.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48Cheeryble and Squeers, they go together.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Squeers...
0:23:53 > 0:23:54What else could go?
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Tumbrel and...
0:23:56 > 0:23:58- Gig?- You've got ten seconds.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05OK, um...
0:24:05 > 0:24:07No, that's it, the time's up.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10The wall's frozen, but you found a group, you get a point for that.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12What about the connection?
0:24:15 > 0:24:16Australian Prime Ministers.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18They're Australian Prime Ministers.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20You can still get more points for connections,
0:24:20 > 0:24:22so let's resolve the wall.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Those are the groups you should have found.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26So, what about the second one?
0:24:29 > 0:24:31- Are they Dickens characters? - Hard Times?
0:24:31 > 0:24:33They're Dickens characters.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35I'll take it, they are Dickens characters.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38- Do you want to be more specific? - Is it Hard Times?- It's not.
0:24:38 > 0:24:39Wackford Squeers...
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Wackford Squeers... Nicholas Nickleby, that's it.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Dickens characters there. And the next group...
0:24:49 > 0:24:50Are they all...?
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Oh, they're all bus companies.
0:24:52 > 0:24:53All bus companies?
0:24:53 > 0:24:55- Probably, I don't know. - Shall we go for that? Yeah?
0:24:55 > 0:24:57OK, they're all bus companies.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00Now, as much Drambuie as I drink on a bus,
0:25:00 > 0:25:04I'm afraid it's not the official sponsor of the transport.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06No, they're Scottish companies.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08A range of things. It is Tunnock's teacakes.
0:25:08 > 0:25:09Drambuie is booze, of course.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Stagecoach is a transport group.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14M&Co is actually a clothing chain from Renfrew.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17So, Scottish companies there. And the last one.
0:25:20 > 0:25:21They are horse-drawn carriages.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Horse-drawn carriages or carts or generally horse-drawn vehicles.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27So, that's a point for the group that you found
0:25:27 > 0:25:30and three points for the connections. That's a total of four.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Let's have a look at the scores going into the final round.
0:25:40 > 0:25:41If you think those walls had no
0:25:41 > 0:25:42redeeming characteristics
0:25:42 > 0:25:44whatsoever, then go to our website
0:25:44 > 0:25:46where you can write your own
0:25:46 > 0:25:47and also find plenty of others
0:25:47 > 0:25:48you can play.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50On with Round Four - Missing Vowels.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52We've taken well-known names,
0:25:52 > 0:25:53phrases and sayings,
0:25:53 > 0:25:54taken out the vowels
0:25:54 > 0:25:56and squidged up the consonants,
0:25:56 > 0:25:58and I want to know what are those disguised clues.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Rachael, you've got your ear piece there, you're going
0:26:00 > 0:26:02to have consonants read out to you.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05They will, of course, come in connected groups of four.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07Fingers on buzzers, teams.
0:26:07 > 0:26:08The first group.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19Learners.
0:26:19 > 0:26:20- Nelson Piquet.- Correct.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25- Collectors.- Frank Bridge.- Correct.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30- Learners.- Noddy Holder. - That's right.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32Noddy's an old form of cribbage.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39- Learners.- Patience Strong.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41That's right. Next category...
0:26:45 > 0:26:46- Learners.- Why the long face?
0:26:46 > 0:26:47That's right.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51- Learners.- To get to the other side.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53That's right.
0:27:00 > 0:27:01Collectors.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04- No, she went of her own accord. - That's it.
0:27:12 > 0:27:16- Collectors.- No need to cry, it's only a joke.- That's right.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18A lot of laughs in that round. Next category...
0:27:29 > 0:27:31- Learners.- To remain fresh.
0:27:31 > 0:27:32That's right.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42Learners.
