0:00:21 > 0:00:23Though I keep searching for an answer,
0:00:23 > 0:00:26I never seem to find what I'm looking for.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29So I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams
0:00:29 > 0:00:32and here I go again, but not on my own,
0:00:32 > 0:00:35and that's one of many ways in which I differ from Whitesnake.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38I'm actually joined by some old friends -
0:00:38 > 0:00:40winners of the most recent two series of Only Connect,
0:00:40 > 0:00:45because this is the all-powerful champion of champions battle.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Who is here to try and get the ultimate supremacy?
0:00:49 > 0:00:51On my right, Holly Pattenden,
0:00:51 > 0:00:52a professional strategist
0:00:52 > 0:00:56who loves Verdi operas and drinking Burgundy wine.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Gareth Price, a folk music fan
0:00:58 > 0:01:01who works as a magazine editor and enjoys European travel.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04And their captain, Dom Tait,
0:01:04 > 0:01:07an associate editor and fan of Liverpool Football Club.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10They beat the Ciphers, the TEFL Teachers, the Wordsmiths
0:01:10 > 0:01:13and the Draughtsmen to claim their title as series six champions.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15They are the Scribes.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17So, Dom, new champions.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19What was the highlight of your Only Connect tournament?
0:01:19 > 0:01:22Um, I think early on in one of the rounds
0:01:22 > 0:01:26we got a question on inscriptions on pound coins quite early.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29It was the dawning realisation we might not be rubbish
0:01:29 > 0:01:31was really quite nice.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33I hope for you sake there will be a lot of money involved tonight
0:01:33 > 0:01:35and I hope that for my own sake, as well.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Let's see who you're facing.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39On my left, Paul Steeples,
0:01:39 > 0:01:42a bass baritone with the Morley College Choir London
0:01:42 > 0:01:44and fan of Altrincham Football Club,
0:01:44 > 0:01:47who works as the head of a vocational qualifications team.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49William De Ath, an Oxford maths graduate,
0:01:49 > 0:01:52who enjoys scuba diving, trekking and skiing.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54And their captain, David Lea,
0:01:54 > 0:01:56a political risk analyst
0:01:56 > 0:01:58who loves cricket and all things Spanish.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Well, welcome to the inquisition.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02They are a team of professional analysts
0:02:02 > 0:02:04and are series five Only Connect champions.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Welcome back to the Analysts.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08David, lovely to see you again.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10What have your team been up to since we saw you last?
0:02:10 > 0:02:13Oh, just pottering about analysing stuff mostly.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16I bought a flat, not with my proceeds from Only Connect, obviously.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19I'm analysing what's in what box at the moment, mostly.
0:02:19 > 0:02:20I'm sure you're as brilliant as ever
0:02:20 > 0:02:22but there's only one way to find out.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Let's play the quiz, starting with Round One.
0:02:24 > 0:02:29What's the connection between four near-impossible clues.
0:02:29 > 0:02:30Scribes, you won the toss
0:02:30 > 0:02:33but you've decided to throw the Analysts in first.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36So, David, could you please choose a hieroglyph?
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Lion, please, Victoria.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41OK. What is the connection between these?
0:02:41 > 0:02:42Here's the first.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47OK. Next, please.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57- Doesn't mean anything to me. - Something to with Toy Story?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00- Yeah, that's what I was thinking. - It could be things on film.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02- The statue might be the thing on Fargo.- OK.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04OK. Next, please.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10That's how Piltdown Man was made up.
0:03:10 > 0:03:11- Um...- Ten seconds.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15..so is it fake archaeological discoveries?
0:03:15 > 0:03:16Next, please.
0:03:18 > 0:03:19Three seconds.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20BELL
0:03:20 > 0:03:25It's the means of various famous hoaxes, fakes.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Yes, creating hoax creatures,
0:03:27 > 0:03:28rather specifically,
0:03:28 > 0:03:30but, yes, they are all hoaxes.
0:03:30 > 0:03:31Paper cut-outs of fairies -
0:03:31 > 0:03:33they were the Cottingley Fairies.
0:03:33 > 0:03:34Do you know who they fooled?
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Conan Doyle, wasn't it?
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. A couple of schoolgirls
0:03:38 > 0:03:41took primitive pictures of cut-outs of fairies.
0:03:41 > 0:03:42Conan Doyle thought they were real.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45The ten-foot gypsum statue. What's that?
0:03:45 > 0:03:46Yeti, Big Foot, something like that?
0:03:46 > 0:03:48It's the Cardiff Giant,
0:03:48 > 0:03:50although not Cardiff where we are now.
0:03:50 > 0:03:51Cardiff, New York.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54A petrified giant that was dug up in 1869.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56And what did the plastic wood head
0:03:56 > 0:03:57and toy submarine create?
0:03:57 > 0:03:59It wouldn't be the Loch Ness Monster?
0:03:59 > 0:04:03Of course, the infamous Surgeon's Photograph of the Loch Ness Monster.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05So, yes, hoaxes was the connection.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Scribes, it's your turn to choose.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09- Twisted Flax, please.- Twisted Flax.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11What is the link between these clues? Here's the first.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Any idea?
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Next, please.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22- Oh, much smaller... - Yeah, a tiny version.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25They came back much smaller than intended.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27BELL
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Much smaller than they were intended to be.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33I mean, smaller, less would sound better in some of the clues.
0:04:33 > 0:04:34It's just measurement mix-ups.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Things that went wrong because of measurement mix-ups.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Yes, Stonehenge in Spinal Tap was supposed to be 18 foot high.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42They made it 18 inches.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45The Mars Climate Orbiter - that was a problem between
0:04:45 > 0:04:47the difference between Newtons and pounds.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50You didn't need to see the Gimli Glider which ran out of fuel
0:04:50 > 0:04:52cos there was too little put in there
0:04:52 > 0:04:55because pounds and kilograms were confused there.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57And Jimbo the aeroplane -
0:04:57 > 0:04:59his designer mixed up inches and centimetres.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Well done. Back to you, Analysts, for a choice.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04- Water, please.- Water, OK.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07These are picture clues. What connects them?
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Here's the first.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15- Will-o'-the-wisp?- OK, next, please.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22- The Secret Garden?- Gates.
0:05:26 > 0:05:27Next, please.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe?
0:05:32 > 0:05:35It could be children's books, or something like that.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39- The Secret Garden, and... - Ten seconds.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42Next, please.
0:05:45 > 0:05:46Three seconds.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48BELL
0:05:48 > 0:05:50They're in the titles of children's books.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52They are not in the titles of children's books.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55So, Scribes, your chance for a bonus.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56They're by CS Lewis.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00I'm not going to take that because it's a bonus chance
0:06:00 > 0:06:02and I'm being strict cos it's champion of champions.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Together you're stumbling towards the answer.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06They are ways to get into Narnia.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10Of course, a creation of CS Lewis, but they're not all in the titles.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14The pool in the wood is the way to get in the wood between the worlds.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18The door in a high wall, that's the Silver Chair.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21The wardrobe, of course, The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23And the Dawntreader - Voyage Of The Dawntreader.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- But, specifically, ways to access Narnia.- OK.
0:06:26 > 0:06:27All right, Scribes, no bonus for you,
0:06:27 > 0:06:29but would you like to choose a question?
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Two Reeds, please.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Two Reeds, the music question.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35What is the connection between these clues?
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Here's the first.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40MUSIC: "O Death Where Is Thy Sting" by Handel
0:06:40 > 0:06:41Sounds like Handel.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Quite early.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Next, please.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49- MUSIC:- "Only Connect Theme"
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Next, please.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59MUSIC: "The Entertainer" by Scott Joplin
0:06:59 > 0:07:01The Entertainer.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Shall I keep going?
0:07:02 > 0:07:03Next, please.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06MUSIC: "Fields Of Gold" by Sting
0:07:06 > 0:07:08- Fields Of Gold.- Ten seconds.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11The Entertainer, Fields Of Gold, the end of Only Connect.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17BELL
0:07:17 > 0:07:18Er...
0:07:21 > 0:07:23No. Ends of quiz shows.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25They are not the ends of quiz shows,
0:07:25 > 0:07:27although I nearly got up and walked out after one of them,
0:07:27 > 0:07:29but that's not what they are.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Analysts, do you want to go for a bonus?
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I don't think we've got anything, have we? No.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Now, that little bit you heard from Only Connect is not actually
0:07:37 > 0:07:41the end of the show, it's the sting between the rounds.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44You're sighing over there. We heard The Entertainer, known as The Sting,
0:07:44 > 0:07:46a piece by Sting, Fields Of Gold,
0:07:46 > 0:07:50and the first one from Handel's Messiah, O Death Where Is Thy Sting?
0:07:50 > 0:07:54David, did you get that just as I started to give the answer?
0:07:54 > 0:07:59- Literally, as soon as you said "No" I got it.- Unlucky.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Seconds too late you realised that one, but you don't get the bonus.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04You do get the chance to choose a question.
0:08:04 > 0:08:09- Eye of Horus, please.- OK, what is the connection between these clues?
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Here's the first.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18- It's that video game thing.- Yeah.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19Next, please.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28OK. Next, please.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41- Next, please.- Ten seconds.
0:08:45 > 0:08:46BELL
0:08:48 > 0:08:51They point at you out of pictures, posters.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Yes, they do.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Professor Layton, a computer game character,
0:08:55 > 0:08:57he points for all sorts of reasons all the time.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00- I didn't know he pointed at you. - Apparently he does point.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Uncle Sam, of course, in the I Want You for the US Army.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Alan Sugar apparently points at people when he's firing them.
0:09:05 > 0:09:06That's not very polite, is it?
0:09:06 > 0:09:10And Lord Kitchener pointed on a poster which had which slogan?
0:09:10 > 0:09:13- Your Country Needs You. - Your Country Needs You.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14So, quite right, very well done.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18Scribes, there is one question remaining, the Horned Viper.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20What connection lies here?
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Time starts now.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Any idea what's there?
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Next, please.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Oh, You'll Never Walk Alone.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Kops? Do they have Kop ends? Next, please.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43Eternal flames burning?
0:09:44 > 0:09:45Eternal flames, OK.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47BELL
0:09:47 > 0:09:50- Eternal flames? - The locations of eternal flames.
0:09:50 > 0:09:51You didn't need to see the last one,
0:09:51 > 0:09:54the gravesite of John F Kennedy, the assassinated president.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57These are all places where eternal flames burn
0:09:57 > 0:09:59in memory of the victims of Hiroshima, of course,
0:09:59 > 0:10:02at the Anfield Stadium after the terrible Hillsborough Disaster
0:10:02 > 0:10:04and the Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07Eternal flames burn there. Well done.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09So at the end of Round One,
0:10:09 > 0:10:12the Analysts have got two points, the Scribes are ahead with five.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Ah, that familiar sting. Must sound like a rubdown now.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21On to Round Two, the sequences round.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24I simply want to know what's the fourth in the sequence
0:10:24 > 0:10:25but the word 'simply' is misleading
0:10:25 > 0:10:27because it's not going to be simple at all.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30Analysts, you're to go first again. Please choose a question.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34- Two reeds, please.- All right. What is the fourth in this sequence?
0:10:34 > 0:10:35Here's the first.
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Next, please.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49- Onan.- Nano.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Onan... Um...
0:10:54 > 0:10:57We'll take the next one because we can't get the sequence.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58Next, please.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03That'll be nano. Nona...
0:11:04 > 0:11:06- Anon?- 10 seconds.
0:11:10 > 0:11:15- Attribution to author unknown. - Brilliant. And why is that?
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Prefix for nine is nono.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20- Eh, nona.- Nona, sorry, yeah.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23Onan spilled his seed on the ground.
0:11:23 > 0:11:2510 to the -9 is nano.
0:11:25 > 0:11:30- So it's rearranging those letters. - That's right.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33And the sequence, it's sort of a circle.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36N-O-N-A, O-N-A-N, N-A-N-O, A-N-O-N for anon,
0:11:36 > 0:11:38for example, an unknown author.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Well done. Scribes, your turn.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42- Water, please.- All right.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45What would be the fourth in this little sequence? Here's the first.
0:11:49 > 0:11:50Next, please.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57OK. Will do. Next, please.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00Can we get the full title?
0:12:00 > 0:12:02- Beltane is a Celtic Festival. - Is it?
0:12:04 > 0:12:06MUTTERING
0:12:06 > 0:12:08Celtic festivals by importance?
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Is it Wicca?
0:12:10 > 0:12:13MUTTERING
0:12:15 > 0:12:1610 seconds.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19What do you think? I might try...
0:12:22 > 0:12:23Three seconds.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25- Easter.- Not the answer, I'm afraid.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28There's a bonus chance for the Analysts.
0:12:28 > 0:12:29Halloween.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32That's not it, either. But what's your logic?
0:12:32 > 0:12:36Order of importance of pagan festivals, I hear from my left.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39It actually is pagan festivals, sequentially,
0:12:39 > 0:12:41but after Beltane you get Midsummer.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43That would be the next pagan festival.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Your turn now, Analysts. Which hieroglyph appeals to you?
0:12:46 > 0:12:48We'll have the lion , please.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50OK. These are going to be picture clues.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54What would you expect to see in the fourth picture? Here's the first.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01It's not years in Japan or something like that?
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Next, please.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14No... no...
0:13:14 > 0:13:15Next, please.
0:13:17 > 0:13:18Yoke, 10.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20So it's going to be hieroglyphs.
0:13:23 > 0:13:24- What is one?- 10 seconds.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Bird is one?
0:13:31 > 0:13:32Three seconds.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34BELL
0:13:34 > 0:13:36Some form of bird and one.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40I'm afraid that is not the answer.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Scribes, there's a bonus chance for you.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46No. A parrot and one?
0:13:46 > 0:13:47- A parrot?- Yep.
0:13:47 > 0:13:48Do you think if it was a parrot
0:13:48 > 0:13:51I'd have said they couldn't have it when they said a bird?
0:13:51 > 0:13:52I see what you mean.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56I may be a cruel taskmistress, but even I'm not that bad. No.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Now I wonder if you're thinking about the right sort of thing.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01What did you think the connection was?
0:14:01 > 0:14:05We were kind of very suspicious that we weren't barking up
0:14:05 > 0:14:10the right tree with hieroglyphs and their representation of numbers.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13You're right about that. The hieroglyph hid hieroglyphs.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16They are Egyptian numerals and one is what wanted to hear,
0:14:16 > 0:14:20but it was symbolised by a staff or a straight line, not a bird.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Yes, the lotus flower, for 1,000.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26A coil of rope for 100, a cattle yoke - 10,
0:14:26 > 0:14:29but the Egyptian numeral hieroglyphs for one
0:14:29 > 0:14:31would be a straight line, or a staff.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Very close but no cigar.
0:14:33 > 0:14:34I would have accepted cigar,
0:14:34 > 0:14:36cos that's a straight line, but I didn't hear it.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Back to you, Scribes, for a choice.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41- Horned viper, please.- OK.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44What is the fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50Remember, it's in caps. Um... Next, please.
0:14:56 > 0:14:57Next, please.
0:14:59 > 0:15:00OK, that's interesting.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06Is it some kind of symmetry?
0:15:13 > 0:15:15- I can't really see anything. - 10 seconds.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Three seconds.
0:15:22 > 0:15:23BELL
0:15:23 > 0:15:26- Madam.- Yes?
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Oh, that's your answer! I'm sorry, that's not correct.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31There's a bonus chance for the Analysts.
0:15:31 > 0:15:32R-O-T-A-S.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36That's not it, but what's your thinking?
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Paul said "R-O-T-A-S" in my right ear, so I...
0:15:39 > 0:15:41I think it's a palindrome or something.
0:15:41 > 0:15:42It's a complicated set
0:15:42 > 0:15:45of palindromes known as the SATOR word square,
0:15:45 > 0:15:48where the words read the same across and down every column.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Next would be OPERA,
0:15:50 > 0:15:53which you'll see is the second clue backwards, which makes sense.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56R-O-T-A-S would actually come next after OPERA,
0:15:56 > 0:15:59so I'm guessing you must have seen this word square before
0:15:59 > 0:16:01because you know the line,
0:16:01 > 0:16:04but actually to get to ROTAS you need OPERA.
0:16:04 > 0:16:05Analysts, then,
0:16:05 > 0:16:07one more choice for you this round.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09- Twisted Flax, then, please.- OK.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12What is the fourth in this sequence?
0:16:12 > 0:16:13Here's the first.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18This is going to be Adrian Mole books.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22Next, please.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28- No, it's the... - So it's the...- St Albion's.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32It's the Academy one, isn't it?
0:16:32 > 0:16:35The Parish News was Blair, wasn't it?
0:16:35 > 0:16:36The Secret Diary was John Major.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40BELL
0:16:40 > 0:16:42New Coalition Academy Newsletter.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44That's exactly what it is.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47The New Coalition Academy or Newsletter. Well done.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Coming in after two clues, you get three points. Why is that?
0:16:50 > 0:16:54They're the spoof columns
0:16:54 > 0:17:00from the Prime Minister of the day in Private Eye, consecutively,
0:17:00 > 0:17:03from Major, Blair, Brown and Cameron.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Exactly right. Well done.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08That leaves only the Eye of Horus
0:17:08 > 0:17:10to stare menacingly at the Scribes.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14What would the fourth clue be in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:17:18 > 0:17:19Next, please.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26- Don't think so... - Next, please.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31Why is there a sequence?
0:17:35 > 0:17:37- Why would that make sense? - Divorce?
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Number of wives...
0:17:39 > 0:17:43A four wife, a five wife, a seven wife?
0:17:43 > 0:17:45- It could be.- 10 seconds.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Oh, the man who went to St Ives?
0:17:47 > 0:17:51- I met a man going to St Ives... - Oh, yeah.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54OK. The man who I met on the way to St Ives?
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Who did you meet on the way to St Ives?
0:17:57 > 0:17:58A man with seven wives.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Ah, no. There was a chance you met
0:18:00 > 0:18:02this person on the way to St Ives,
0:18:02 > 0:18:06but apparently no. So a possible bonus chance for the Analysts.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Well, that was where we were going, as well.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10So we're going to say Richard Burton.
0:18:10 > 0:18:11SHE LAUGHS
0:18:11 > 0:18:13That's a really nice answer
0:18:13 > 0:18:15and sort of works, in a funny sort of way.
0:18:15 > 0:18:16The answer is actually Thomas Seymour.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18These are the husbands of Catherine Parr.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21And if she kept going she probably would have
0:18:21 > 0:18:23married Richard Burton eventually.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26She was married twice before her union with Henry VIII.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28That was the one that survived, of course,
0:18:28 > 0:18:31and after his death, she married Thomas Seymour.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33At the end of Round Two, then,
0:18:33 > 0:18:34The Scribes have got five points
0:18:34 > 0:18:36but the Analysts are ahead with seven.
0:18:39 > 0:18:42On to the connecting wall now, the jumbled up 16 clues
0:18:42 > 0:18:44that need sorting into four connected groups of four.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48Scribes, you'll be going first now, so you've got a choice -
0:18:48 > 0:18:49Lion or Water?
0:18:49 > 0:18:51- Lion, please.- Lion. OK.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55You've got two-and-a-half minutes to solve this wall, starting now.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Claret jug, this is a prize in...
0:19:02 > 0:19:04So trophy, cup...
0:19:04 > 0:19:07It seems a little bit too easy. Sorghum is a type of wheat, I think.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10- Millet, these are... - Quinoa's a grain.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12These are kind of grains, aren't they?
0:19:12 > 0:19:14I wonder what Amaranth is? I can't quite remember.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18I think they're probably words that precede things here,
0:19:18 > 0:19:20like Belt and Plate.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Steroid... That can have an A before it.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28Acorn? Asteroid? Anyone going to help here?
0:19:28 > 0:19:30- Adrift.- Adrift...
0:19:30 > 0:19:33There's got to be another. I can't believe there wouldn't be.
0:19:33 > 0:19:34Atrophy.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Oh, damn it!
0:19:36 > 0:19:38OK, well, let's say there's another.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Avenue. OK.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47I bet I'm doing the same ones here, aren't I?
0:19:47 > 0:19:49OK, let's leave Trophy.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55So now grains. Quinoa can only be a grain.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57- I agree.- So Millet, as well.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00I like that. Corn is gone, of course.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- OK, so they're all grains. - Three lives of course, now.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05- Trophies or prizes.- Plate, cup.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Claret Jug and Dish.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11And then these...
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- Continental shelf? Continental drift? - Yeah, the Earth's crust...
0:20:15 > 0:20:17I wonder if it's just continental...
0:20:17 > 0:20:21I like that, but we've got a bit of time so let's just have a think.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25- It's got to be continental shelf. - I like it,
0:20:25 > 0:20:27I'm just trying to make sure
0:20:27 > 0:20:29that we know what we're going to say when we hit that.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Plate could be in either, couldn't it?
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Yes, I see what you're saying. It is going to be those four.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37But I do... I'll just hit three of them for now.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41I want to make sure our answer is absolutely right for this.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44I think that can be preceded by continental, I think.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47- That certainly can. Belt - not sure.- Crust can't.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49So maybe just parts of the Earth
0:20:49 > 0:20:51or things that can happen at the Earth's core?
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Things that move in the earth.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56Areas associated with tectonics, maybe that's better?
0:20:56 > 0:20:59You've got 30 seconds and two lives now.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01So plate can be tectonic.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05Let's leave it then. Claret Jug and Dish. A Belt?
0:21:05 > 0:21:09That's it. You've solved the wall. Very well done. Four points there.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Let's see about the connections.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Trophy, Venue, Corn, Steroid.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Can be preceded by A to make new words.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19- Atrophy, Avenue, Acorn and Asteroid. - Exactly. Very well spotted.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21You got that early. That was the really tricky one.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23And what about this green group here?
0:21:23 > 0:21:27They are all types of grain or foodstuff.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29Yeah, I'll take it. Their seeds are used in cereals,
0:21:29 > 0:21:31but yes, edible crops.
0:21:31 > 0:21:34And the next one: Cup, Dish, Belt, Claret Jug?
0:21:34 > 0:21:35Sporting prizes.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38All sporting prizes. You recognise the Claret Jug, what's that from?
0:21:38 > 0:21:42- The Open.- It's some sort of golf thing, I'm led to believe.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Some people get some prizes for that - I don't know why.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48And the last one: Shelf, Drift, Plate, Crust?
0:21:48 > 0:21:50I think they're all terms from tectonics.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52Yes, do you want to tell me any more?
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Continental terms, continental drift.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57In tectonics, you can put "continental" before all of them.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Very well done indeed. That is four points for the groups,
0:22:00 > 0:22:01four points for the connections.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03You get two bonus points for getting it all right.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06That's the maximum of 10. Very well done.
0:22:06 > 0:22:07Time to bring back the Analysts,
0:22:07 > 0:22:09see what they can do with the connecting wall.
0:22:09 > 0:22:1316 new clues still need sorting into four connecting groups of four.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Analysts, it will be the Water Wall for you.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19You have two-and-a-half minutes to solve it, starting now.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26Split, Dubrovnik, Zadar...
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Then Eubank, Leonard, Duran, Hagler..
0:22:32 > 0:22:36Pula's Croatia, as well, isn't it? So, hang on, so...
0:22:36 > 0:22:38- We've got lots of...- Hang on. So...
0:22:38 > 0:22:40- Take the Croatians out?- Yeah.
0:22:46 > 0:22:50- Split's possibly another category.- There we go.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54OK. Leonard, Duran, Hagler...
0:22:55 > 0:22:57- Middleweight boxers, specifically. - Yeah.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59Loon, that's a Canadian coin, isn't it?
0:23:01 > 0:23:03No, it's... Hang on.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Sub Sub, The The...
0:23:05 > 0:23:08- Talk Talk, Duran Duran.- OK.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Which leaves us with...
0:23:12 > 0:23:14- Lots of boxers.- Timer...
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Pula...
0:23:18 > 0:23:19- Loads of boxers.- And...
0:23:21 > 0:23:23Yeah, another boxer coming after that.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31We've got to sort the boxers.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Because there are six of them.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36Right, OK, let's go for...
0:23:36 > 0:23:38You're about halfway through the time.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Is it anything to do with the weights?
0:23:44 > 0:23:48I think they're all more or less middleweight.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51We might as well try the ones...
0:23:51 > 0:23:52Hang on, hang on.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03- There we go.- Three lives now.- OK.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11- Pula, Loon...- Leonard and Timer.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22That's it. You've solved the wall.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24That's four points for you there.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Let's look for the connections.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Split, Dubrovnik, Zadar, Rijeka?
0:24:29 > 0:24:31- Cities in Croatia. - They're Croatian cities.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35What about this: Hearns, Hagler, Benn, Eubank?
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Boxers, specifically middleweight world champions.
0:24:39 > 0:24:40That's absolutely the perfect answer.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43World middleweight champions. Are you boxing fans?
0:24:43 > 0:24:47I probably was back then, back in the golden years.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50- Something was better back then, eh?- Always.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54And what about this: Duran, Sub, The, Talk?
0:24:54 > 0:24:58Repeat them and you get the name of a band in each case.
0:24:58 > 0:25:03That's right, the pop groups Duran Duran, Sub Sub, The The, Talk Talk.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07And what about this last group: Leonard, Timer, Pula, Loon?
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Um... Hmm...
0:25:09 > 0:25:13Not so sure on this one. Currencies?
0:25:13 > 0:25:14That's not it.
0:25:14 > 0:25:20Now this devious connection is almost invisible to the human eye.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23But what if you changed one letter in each of those clues,
0:25:23 > 0:25:28you could turn them into Leopard, Tiger, Puma and Lion.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31They all become big cats if you change a letter.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33But the claws were really hidden there.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35Very well done, though, you found four groups
0:25:35 > 0:25:38and you get three bonus points for the connections, a total of seven.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41Let's have a look at the scores going into round four.
0:25:42 > 0:25:46The Analysts have got 14 points, but The Scribes are ahead with 15.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52This is going to make for a hotly contested missing vowels round.
0:25:52 > 0:25:53It will be decided here.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56Of course, we'll be taking the vowels out of well-known names,
0:25:56 > 0:25:58phrases or sayings, squidging up the consonants.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00I want to know what the hidden clues are.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Of course, the teams can lose points
0:26:02 > 0:26:04if they get a consonant wrong.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08Or indeed a vowel. Fingers on buzzers, teams.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12The first group are all literary aunts.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16- Analysts?- Lady Bracknell.- Correct.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20- Scribes?- Betsy Trotwood.- Correct.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29A tricky one, this.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32From Cold Comfort Farm, it's Ada Doom. Next clue.
0:26:34 > 0:26:35- Analysts?- Aunt Agatha.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37The mastodon herself. Correct.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40Next category, films with photographer protagonists.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44- Analysts?- Spiderman.
0:26:44 > 0:26:45Correct.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49- Scribes? - The Bridges of Madison County.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51Correct.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54- Scribes?- Funny Face.- Correct.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58- Scribes?- Rear Window.- Correct.
0:26:58 > 0:27:02Next category, correct versions of common misquotations.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08- Scribes? - Double, double, toil and trouble.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10That's right.
0:27:12 > 0:27:13- Analysts?- Play it, Sam.
0:27:13 > 0:27:14Correct.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20- Analysts?- Lay on, Macduff.
0:27:20 > 0:27:21That's right.
0:27:30 > 0:27:31Oh, come on!
0:27:31 > 0:27:34This one is "Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio."
0:27:34 > 0:27:37Next category, works of JMW Turner.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43- Scribes?- Eruption of Vesuvius.
0:27:43 > 0:27:44Correct.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52END OF ROUND JINGLE
0:27:54 > 0:27:58That last one was Dido Building Carthage.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02But the little sound means we're at the end of the quiz.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06And after an amazing round four, for the captains especially,
0:28:06 > 0:28:10the Analysts finish on 19 points, but the winners,
0:28:10 > 0:28:14and new champion of champions for Only Connect with 21 points,
0:28:14 > 0:28:17are The Scribes. Very well done.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19What an absolutely successful tournament for you
0:28:19 > 0:28:23and your icing the cake with the champions of champions.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26Analysts, just pipped this time but it was lovely to see you all again
0:28:26 > 0:28:29and some brilliant quizzing, of course. Thank you for playing.
0:28:29 > 0:28:31And thank you for watching this special episode
0:28:31 > 0:28:33of the problem-solving quiz
0:28:33 > 0:28:35that doesn't actually solve any of your problems -
0:28:35 > 0:28:38as I've learned to my cost. Goodbye.
