0:00:21 > 0:00:24Hello and welcome to a special episode of Only Connect.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27On one side, an all-star team
0:00:27 > 0:00:30of former champion captains all called David.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33They were match-made as part of a grand plan to pit them against
0:00:33 > 0:00:37three brilliant quizzers all called Goliath but, after literally minutes
0:00:37 > 0:00:41of research, the production team gave up and invited the Eggheads.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43Nevertheless, I would like to stress that despite on team being
0:00:43 > 0:00:47from a rival quiz, I will, as always, be completely impartial.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53So, let's meet the team that's going to get scrambled.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Welcome, on my right, Pat Gibson,
0:00:55 > 0:00:59three times world quizzing champion and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
0:00:59 > 0:01:01winner, who joined the Eggheads team after winning
0:01:01 > 0:01:04the second Are You An Egghead? tournament.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Barry Simmons, a former IT manager and Brain Of Britain finalist,
0:01:07 > 0:01:11who joined the Eggheads team after winning the first Are You An Egghead? tournament.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14And their captain, Chris Hughes, a former railway worker,
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Mastermind and Brain Of Britain champion, who's been
0:01:17 > 0:01:21a member of the Eggheads team since their first appearance in 2003.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24They are all professional quizzers. They are the Eggheads.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27So, Chris, you are known as the standard to beat in quizzing circles.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29What do you think of your chances on Only Connect?
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Well, they're a good team, but I think our answers will carry more weight.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36Does that mean you think you're not going to win,
0:01:36 > 0:01:39- but you're already planning to claim moral victory?- Yes.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Good luck with that.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45You will be facing, on my left, David Bill, a former bookie
0:01:45 > 0:01:48and captain of series three winners the Gamblers, who has defeated
0:01:48 > 0:01:52the Insurers, the Bowlers, the Archers Admirers and the Strategists.
0:01:52 > 0:01:53David Lea, a political
0:01:53 > 0:01:56and security risk analyst who captained series five winners,
0:01:56 > 0:01:59the Analysts, beating the Editors, the Technologists,
0:01:59 > 0:02:02the Trade Unionists and the Antiquarians.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04And their captain, David Stainer.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07A tax lawyer and captain of the greatest team in Only Connect
0:02:07 > 0:02:09history, the mighty Crossworders,
0:02:09 > 0:02:11who laid waste to the Birkbeck Alumni,
0:02:11 > 0:02:14the Edinburgh Scrabblers, the Science Writers,
0:02:14 > 0:02:16the Lapsed Psychologists, the Rugby Boys, the Epicureans,
0:02:16 > 0:02:19the University Challengers and the Masterminders.
0:02:19 > 0:02:24These people are among the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Together, they make up the Davids,
0:02:26 > 0:02:28potentially the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:02:28 > 0:02:33The question is, can they be beaten?
0:02:33 > 0:02:35So, David, can you be beaten?
0:02:35 > 0:02:37I would have thought we probably could be beaten,
0:02:37 > 0:02:40but we'll try our hardest to make sure we're not.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43You've got new people on either side of you tonight,
0:02:43 > 0:02:45not the full Crossworders.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48I'm assuming you've seen these rival quizzers moving to championhood
0:02:48 > 0:02:50in their own scenes. What do you think of playing with them?
0:02:50 > 0:02:52I'm very excited at the prospect.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54I think we'll be a good team together.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57And we're all called David, importantly.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59I've never liked the name.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03Let battle commence with, as you can probably all guess, Round One.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05If you can't, you're in the wrong place.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08I will simply be asking what's the connection between four
0:03:08 > 0:03:11apparently random clues. Eggheads, you won the toss.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14You'll go first. Welcome, we're very delighted to see you here.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Please choose an Egyptian hieroglyph.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Twisted flax, please, Victoria. - The twisted flax.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24Your first clue of the Only Connect special is coming up now.
0:03:28 > 0:03:34- Jurors three. There was 12 angry men. That doesn't help.- Nine.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38- Move on.- Number nine. Next, please.
0:03:42 > 0:03:46- There are four petals on a remembrance poppy.- Yes.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50That's nine, then it goes down to two.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53I can't think of any number sequences.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57- Next one, please.- 10 seconds. - Premier league teams plus eight.
0:03:57 > 0:04:04- Is it 20 teams in the Premier League? - Yes.- Three seconds.
0:04:04 > 0:04:05BUZZER
0:04:05 > 0:04:10- What are we saying?- You must give me your answer. You've buzzed in.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12- No, we just don't have a clue. - Fair enough.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15In that case, I'm going to show the fourth clue to the Davids,
0:04:15 > 0:04:16for a possible bonus.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Things that are different between England and Scotland.
0:04:19 > 0:04:20That's absolutely right.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23The maths to make the difference between Scotland and England.
0:04:23 > 0:04:28England has three fewer jurors, two fewer petals on a remembrance poppy,
0:04:28 > 0:04:31eight more Premier League teams and five fewer kings called James.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35So bonus point for you, David. You may now choose your own hieroglyph.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39- Horned viper, please.- The horned viper. What's the connection here?
0:04:39 > 0:04:40Time starts now.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45- Will we go next?- Yes. Next, please.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- I don't know, shall we go next? - It's going to be something...
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Might be, actually. Next, please.
0:04:55 > 0:04:59Author of the Sasser worm. That's a virus.
0:04:59 > 0:05:04Who the author is, I don't know. Shall we see next?
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Next, please.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13- Did they all... no.- 10 seconds.
0:05:13 > 0:05:14My word.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- Have they all written fiction? - No idea.- Two seconds.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22No, you're out of time.
0:05:22 > 0:05:27- So there's a bonus chance you, now, Eggheads.- Mother of... no?- No.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29I don't think you know it.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33The answer is they all attracted bounties.
0:05:33 > 0:05:34The coypu, sort of vermin in Louisiana,
0:05:34 > 0:05:38and Saddam Hussein, there were bounties for killing them.
0:05:38 > 0:05:39Enlistees in the American Civil War,
0:05:39 > 0:05:42they got a bounty for joining up and the author of the Sasser worm,
0:05:42 > 0:05:46sort of malware program, was caught as part of Microsoft-funded
0:05:46 > 0:05:49initiative to offer bounties for that sort of thing.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53So no points there. Eggheads, you may now choose your own question.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56- Water? OK. Water, please.- Water.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59OK. What is the connection here?
0:05:59 > 0:06:00Time starts now.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Painting, but that's all.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11That's all. Nothing other than that.
0:06:11 > 0:06:12Next, please.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Long grass with butterflies.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Were they all at the same exhibition?
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- Surrealist or postimpressionist. - That's all... Next, please.
0:06:30 > 0:06:3110 seconds.
0:06:34 > 0:06:39- Were these all paintings that caused controversy?- Three seconds.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42- See the last one. - You're out of time.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44I'm going to show the fourth clue to the Davids.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Hung mistakenly in some general way.
0:06:48 > 0:06:49I mean, Le Bateau was hung upside down.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51- Maybe the rest were displayed incorrectly.- I'll take it.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52Three of them were hung upside down.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54The Rothko was actually hung horizontally
0:06:54 > 0:06:56instead of vertically, but it is sort of upside down.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59So all artworks hung incorrectly for the bonus point.
0:06:59 > 0:07:03- And you may now choose your own question.- We'll go for lion.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07Lion. These are going to be picture clues. What's the connection?
0:07:07 > 0:07:09Here's the first one.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13B*Witched, isn't it? Star...
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Shall we go one more? Next.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18That's a Q...
0:07:21 > 0:07:24I don't know, to be honest. Do you think we ought to go for another?
0:07:24 > 0:07:26- Yes, I think we should.- Next, please.
0:07:28 > 0:07:29Macy's.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33Have they got some non-standard... Macy's has no apostrophe.
0:07:33 > 0:07:38- It's got one on that, though. - Oh, yeah. Good point.- 10 seconds.
0:07:38 > 0:07:44- Next, please.- MASH.- Oh, they've just got asterisks, maybe. Macy's has got...
0:07:44 > 0:07:46- Three seconds. - BUZZER
0:07:46 > 0:07:51Asterisks form some part of the name of them. B*Witched, the band.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55- M*A*S*H has asterisks between letters.- That's absolutely right.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58The second one is a computer game Q*Bert which is Q-asterisk-Bert.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Macy's, it's a star, an asterisk,
0:08:00 > 0:08:04instead of the apostrophe because the founder had a star tattoo as a teenager.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07M*A*S*H, of course, it's in between the letters.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10So asterisks in the name, well done. Eggheads, which would you like next?
0:08:10 > 0:08:14- Eye of Horus, please. - Your first clue is coming up now.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Might have got to the moon.
0:08:18 > 0:08:23- Yes. Nothing else there. - Three people on it.- Next, please.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29Pan Am flight 214. Ah.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33A field in Pennsylvania. Could be.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37- Let's move on. Next.- Next, please.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41Lee Trevino's one of the super...
0:08:43 > 0:08:45- 10 seconds.- Next, please.
0:08:48 > 0:08:49Struck by lightning.
0:08:49 > 0:08:54- All been struck by lightning. - They have been struck by lightning.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58Yes, Lee Trevino, the golfer, survived a lightning strike in 1975.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Always the risk, isn't it, of people who go out to play golf,
0:09:01 > 0:09:02that they might come back alive.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05So you're off the blocks, Eggheads, with a point
0:09:05 > 0:09:08and back to the Davids for the final question, two reeds.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10And I suspect it will be the music question,
0:09:10 > 0:09:12because we haven't had that yet. So indeed it is.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16You'll be hearing the clues. First one coming in now.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18'Darling, I said what's for tea?'
0:09:18 > 0:09:22MARCHING BAND MUSIC
0:09:22 > 0:09:25Next, please.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28BOUNCY BRASS MUSIC
0:09:28 > 0:09:31- No idea what that is.- Next, please.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33# Pump it up a little more
0:09:33 > 0:09:35# Get the party going on the dancefloor. #
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Pump Up The Jam, isn't it?
0:09:37 > 0:09:41Things with a spread... Next, please.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43# Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da... #
0:09:43 > 0:09:44Lady Marmalade.
0:09:45 > 0:09:50Preserves. We have Pump Up The Jam by Technotronic featuring... Felly?
0:09:50 > 0:09:56- Yes.- And Lady Marmalade by...- I'm afraid preserves is not the answer.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59So there is a possible bonus for you, Eggheads.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Spreads.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02That's not it either. Now, had you
0:10:02 > 0:10:04recognised the second one,
0:10:04 > 0:10:05you would have thought the same.
0:10:05 > 0:10:06It's A Taste Of Honey.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08But the first one,
0:10:08 > 0:10:09The Who's Heinz Baked Beans.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11So, not preserves or spreads.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13- Things you have on toast.- Exactly.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Baked beans, as much as I would
0:10:15 > 0:10:17love them to be a preserve, are not.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19At the end of Round One, then,
0:10:19 > 0:10:21the Eggheads have got one point,
0:10:21 > 0:10:23but the Davids are ahead with three.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Round Two, the sequences round.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Davids, I know you're familiar with this but, Eggheads, I'll remind you.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34There are still four clues, but you may not see the fourth.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37I want to know what it is. You will be able to choose first again.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Which would you like?
0:10:39 > 0:10:43- Horned Viper.- Horned Viper, yeah, we've not had it yet.- Horned Viper.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46What is the fourth in the sequence here? First one coming up now.
0:10:52 > 0:10:57- It's Barack Obama.- His mother was Ann Dunelm or Stanley Ann Dunelm.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59- Go on.- Go with it?- Let's go on.
0:10:59 > 0:11:00BELL
0:11:00 > 0:11:02No, sorry, shouldn't have buzzed.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04I'm afraid you buzzed. I need an answer.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Barack Obama.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10That is very, very far from the correct answer, I'm afraid.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11So I'm going to show
0:11:11 > 0:11:13the next two clues to the Davids.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15THEY CONFER
0:11:16 > 0:11:18I need an answer, please.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- Rowan Cantab, you think? - Williams Cantab.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Williams Cantab.
0:11:23 > 0:11:24Have another go.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26I don't know. Is Cantab right?
0:11:26 > 0:11:31That's Cambridge, isn't it? I don't know what it is.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33No, I'm afraid I'm not going to give it to you
0:11:33 > 0:11:35and you're very close again.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37These are the signatures
0:11:37 > 0:11:39of the church of England Bishops
0:11:39 > 0:11:41going up to the most senior.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43They are Justin Dunelm,
0:11:43 > 0:11:44that's Durham,
0:11:44 > 0:11:45Richard Londin, London,
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Sentamu Ebor, York
0:11:47 > 0:11:49and the Archbishop of Canterbury
0:11:49 > 0:11:52would sign his name Rowan Cantuar.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54You simply don't get enough letters
0:11:54 > 0:11:56from him to get it exactly correct.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58Davids, you may have your question.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00- Water, I think.- Water.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02The first in a sequence coming up.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04What is the fourth? Time starts now.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11Shall we go next? It's probably French Revolution. Next, please.
0:12:16 > 0:12:17Good grief.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Do you think there are four in a series of paintings
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- or something like that?- Could be. - Next, please.
0:12:34 > 0:12:3610 seconds.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- La Revolution de 1789? - Three seconds.
0:12:42 > 0:12:43BELL
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Le Revolution de 1789.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47That is not the right answer,
0:12:47 > 0:12:48I'm afraid. Do you want to
0:12:48 > 0:12:50have a go, Eggheads, for a bonus?
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Battle of Waterloo, 1815.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Closer, but still not correct,
0:12:54 > 0:12:58I'm afraid. It is La Paix de 1815.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01This is a hideous question.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03They are the sculptures
0:13:03 > 0:13:04on the Arc de Triomphe
0:13:04 > 0:13:07in chronological order of their title.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09So, 1815 is the right date,
0:13:09 > 0:13:12but the sculpture is La Paix de 1815.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14No points again, but good stabs.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16Eggheads, which would you like next?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18- Eye of Horus, please.- Eye of Horus
0:13:18 > 0:13:20OK, what is the fourth
0:13:20 > 0:13:22in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26666.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32So, could they all be 666?
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- Shall we see the next one? - Yeah, next one, please.
0:13:39 > 0:13:45- Is that 666? I don't know. - No, we'd better go again.- Go again.
0:13:45 > 0:13:46Next one, please.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52It must be 666.
0:13:52 > 0:13:5310 seconds.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56- Remember, it's a sequence. - BELL
0:13:56 > 0:14:00- What else is 666?- Oh, gosh, yes.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02The number of the beast.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04I'm afraid that's not the answer.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Davids, would you like to have a go?
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Yeah, we think it's the emergency number. It's referring to 999.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12666, 777, 888 and 999.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15Emergency services. Exactly the example we had ourselves.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Of course, if they were all 666
0:14:17 > 0:14:18it wouldn't be a sequence.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21999, or something pertaining to it, we needed for the fourth clue.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Well done, Davids, for the bonus.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Which question would you like?
0:14:25 > 0:14:26Twisted Flax, please.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30Twisted Flax. The first in a sequence coming up now.
0:14:33 > 0:14:37What year was that? 2002? Shall we go next?
0:14:37 > 0:14:39Next, please,
0:14:42 > 0:14:44I think public enquiries.
0:14:44 > 0:14:50Are they protests or public things in London?
0:14:52 > 0:14:53Next, please.
0:14:55 > 0:14:56Public enquiries.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Would they have had one into the death of the Queen Mother?
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- You never know.- 10 seconds.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Levenson?
0:15:04 > 0:15:07- I just can't...- Three seconds.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09BELL
0:15:09 > 0:15:10The Royal wedding.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11That is not the right answer.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Do you want to have a go,
0:15:13 > 0:15:14Eggheads, for a bonus?
0:15:14 > 0:15:16No, we haven't got anything on this one.
0:15:16 > 0:15:17The answer is
0:15:17 > 0:15:19rioting in London and other cities.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21And the connection is
0:15:21 > 0:15:25it is four occasions in order when Parliament was recalled.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Recalled for the death of the Queen Mother
0:15:27 > 0:15:30and the problem with Iraq and weapons of mass destruction,
0:15:30 > 0:15:33confidence in the media and police in 2011
0:15:33 > 0:15:36and again later that year because of the riots.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Last chance for a question
0:15:38 > 0:15:39of your own in this round, Eggheads
0:15:39 > 0:15:41- What's it to be?- Lion.
0:15:41 > 0:15:46Lion. What is the last in this sequence? Here's the first.
0:15:49 > 0:15:53- Eight equals copper plus tin. - That's brass.- Eight is brass.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56If eight is brass...
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Is it Scrabble scorers?
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Do you get eight for brass?
0:16:00 > 0:16:04- No. Three, four, five, six, seven, no.- Next, please.
0:16:06 > 0:16:07Nine is copper.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Eight is brass, nine is copper.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Oh, are they wedding anniversaries? Eight, nine, 10, 11.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19- 10 seconds. - Eleven is steel, isn't it?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21BELL
0:16:21 > 0:16:2311, Fe, Steel.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Have one more go.
0:16:27 > 0:16:33Well, there's carbon in steel so 11 = Fe + C.
0:16:33 > 0:16:38There you go. These are wedding anniversaries in chemical symbols.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41So, the eighth anniversary, bronze, a copper/tin alloy.
0:16:41 > 0:16:42Ninth, copper itself.
0:16:42 > 0:16:4410th, tin. 11th anniversary,
0:16:44 > 0:16:45which is steel and iron.
0:16:45 > 0:16:46I think, in America,
0:16:46 > 0:16:48they have an iron anniversary
0:16:48 > 0:16:51of some kind so I wanted to hear about the trace of carbon
0:16:51 > 0:16:52that makes it steel. Very well done.
0:16:52 > 0:16:53And there's one question
0:16:53 > 0:16:55remaining for you now, Davids.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58It's the Two Reeds. What's the fourth in this sequence?
0:16:58 > 0:17:01They're going to be picture clues. Here's the first.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08- Some kind of flower. Shall we go next?- Yeah.- Next.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- Is it a canary?- I have no idea.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- Shall we go next?- Yeah. - Next, please.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23That's the Canary Islands, isn't it?
0:17:23 > 0:17:25So...
0:17:25 > 0:17:28Norwich City, I don't know.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- It's a sequence, isn't it? - Yeah, I just...
0:17:31 > 0:17:3310 seconds.
0:17:38 > 0:17:39Three seconds.
0:17:39 > 0:17:40BELL
0:17:40 > 0:17:42A Norwich City shirt.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44I'm going to come back to you later
0:17:44 > 0:17:45to find out why you said that,
0:17:45 > 0:17:47but it is not the answer.
0:17:47 > 0:17:48Possible bonus, Eggheads.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51There is a canary wine that's mentioned in Twelfth Night.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53A bottle of canary wine?
0:17:53 > 0:17:55It is not. It is a dog.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57But before we discuss why, Davids,
0:17:57 > 0:17:59why were you saying Norwich City?
0:17:59 > 0:18:02We'd identified the Canary Islands, we thought the bird might be
0:18:02 > 0:18:05a canary so we appreciated that didn't have much
0:18:05 > 0:18:09of a sequential element to it but I think we were plucking at straws.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11I think I can see why it's dogs, I think.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15Each one has inspired the name of the thing before it.
0:18:15 > 0:18:16That is exactly what it is.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18The canary creeper plant,
0:18:18 > 0:18:19named after the canary bird
0:18:19 > 0:18:20because of the colour.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23Canary bird intrinsic to the Canary Islands and Canary Islands,
0:18:23 > 0:18:25so-called according to Pliny the Elder
0:18:25 > 0:18:29because they were full of dogs. Canis, of course, Latin for dog.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32So, at the end of Round Two, then, the Eggheads have improved
0:18:32 > 0:18:36to four points, the Davids also have four points.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Time for the Connecting Wall -
0:18:40 > 0:18:43the 16 jumbled up clues that need sorting into four groups of four.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46Now, there's nothing I love more than multimedia
0:18:46 > 0:18:49and the gradual encroachment of the Internet over television
0:18:49 > 0:18:52so I'm delighted to say you can play along at the same time
0:18:52 > 0:18:55on your computer. You don't even have to look at the screen.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59Davids, you will be going first this time and you have a choice.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Lion or Water?
0:19:01 > 0:19:04- Water?- Take your pick.- Water.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08Water it is. You have, of course, two and a half minutes to solve it.
0:19:08 > 0:19:09Starting now.
0:19:12 > 0:19:18John Travolta. Scientology. Scientologists.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20- Kirstie Alley.- Hubbard.
0:19:20 > 0:19:21Katie Holmes. Leave Alley out.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Right, so who have we left out?
0:19:30 > 0:19:31Cruise and Alley we've left out.
0:19:34 > 0:19:35Right, OK.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39Remote control, quality control,
0:19:39 > 0:19:41damage control, cruise control.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Birth as well. We've left birth out.
0:19:44 > 0:19:45We'll leave cruise out again.
0:19:47 > 0:19:48Leave damage out.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Just three attempts now.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57Caraway is a seed, isn't it?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00Patch Adams. Jay Gatsby.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05Benjamin Button.
0:20:10 > 0:20:11Is it something about
0:20:11 > 0:20:13the shape of the words?
0:20:20 > 0:20:24You're about halfway through the time.
0:20:24 > 0:20:25Caraway seed.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31Unforgettable, unbutton...
0:20:35 > 0:20:39- Brain damage.- Damage limitation.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Damage is a film, isn't it?
0:20:42 > 0:20:45I wonder whether we ought to try
0:20:45 > 0:20:48damage, Gatsby...
0:20:48 > 0:20:49Gatsby must be something
0:20:49 > 0:20:51to do with the great Gatsby.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53None of them are the great,
0:20:53 > 0:20:56aren't they? He was Jay Gatsby.
0:20:56 > 0:20:57Do any of them have
0:20:57 > 0:20:58letters preceded them? No.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Shall we go Gatsby, damage,
0:21:03 > 0:21:08forgettable, committee?
0:21:08 > 0:21:10They're more evolved words, aren't they?
0:21:12 > 0:21:15Shall we go those three and caraway?
0:21:15 > 0:21:16I was thinking Patch for Patch Adams
0:21:16 > 0:21:18but, yeah, it's...
0:21:21 > 0:21:23That's it with 10 seconds to go.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27You solved the wall. Well done. Let's see about the connections.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29Travolta, Alley, Hubbard, Holmes.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Famous Scientologists.
0:21:31 > 0:21:34John Travolta, Kirstie Alley, Katie Holmes
0:21:34 > 0:21:37and the founder, L Ron Hubbard. Advocates of Scientology.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Cruise, remote, quality, birth.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42Things that can be preceded by...
0:21:42 > 0:21:46No, sorry, followed by the word control.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48That's right. You can put control after all.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51Button, Diver, Patch, Gatsby.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53I was hoping you knew this, Dave.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Sadly not.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58Surnames of characters in...
0:21:59 > 0:22:01..novels by Fitzgerald?
0:22:01 > 0:22:04That's the answer. They are characters from F Scott Fitzgerald.
0:22:04 > 0:22:08The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a Fitzgerald story.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10Dick Diver from Tender Is The Night.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12The Patches from The Beautiful And The Damned
0:22:12 > 0:22:14and Jay Gatsby, The Great Gatsby.
0:22:14 > 0:22:15They are Scott Fitzgerald characters.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18You stumbled your way there at the last minute.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21The last group - damage, forgettable, caraway, committee.
0:22:21 > 0:22:27Do they all began with three-letter words?
0:22:27 > 0:22:31Dam, for, car, com? No, com isn't even a three-letter word.
0:22:31 > 0:22:32They can all be split to make two words.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35I'm afraid you've given an answer which I can't accept, but
0:22:35 > 0:22:39I think one of the Davids is muttering the right answer too late.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43You split them. Dam, age. Forget, table. Car, away. Commit, tee.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47They are two words put together to make another one. But just too late.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Nevertheless, four points for the groups you found. Three connections.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52That's a total of seven.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Time to bring back the Eggheads who, of course,
0:22:54 > 0:22:56have never played a Connecting Wall before.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00They'll get a different wall, but it is very tough. How will they fare?
0:23:00 > 0:23:03Eggheads, good luck with your first attempt at the wall.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05You're going to get the Lion wall.
0:23:05 > 0:23:10You've got two and a half minutes to find the four groups. Starting now.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Saffron is a herb. Any more herbs?
0:23:15 > 0:23:19Lemmy, Bono... Single word. Skin.
0:23:19 > 0:23:20No.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24Pro Tempore, Pro Forma.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Pro Bono.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27Pro Rata.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Wasp could be a rugby player.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43Harlequin, Saracen. Saints.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47- So are Sharks.- Work through those.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Now you do all this.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Three strikes and you're out now.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Be careful how you press.
0:24:00 > 0:24:01Skin is certainly a musician.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Lemmy is from Motorhead.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Fish is from Marillion.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07What about Saffron, Rock, Trapper
0:24:07 > 0:24:09and Maniac? What would they be?
0:24:13 > 0:24:14It's not a vegetable.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16No, it's maniac, not manioc.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20About halfway through the time.
0:24:20 > 0:24:21No words in the middle of them.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Nothing we can work out from vowels
0:24:23 > 0:24:26or anything strange like that.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28Kleptomaniac, pyromaniac.
0:24:28 > 0:24:29No, nothing like that.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32Saffron is a flower.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34It's expensive. Most expensive.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40- Saffron rice. Does that help us?- No.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Rock groups? We'd better try
0:24:42 > 0:24:44the rock groups and get that.
0:24:44 > 0:24:45On you go.
0:24:49 > 0:24:50Who's our last one?
0:24:52 > 0:24:54That's it, you've solved the wall.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Very well done.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59That's four immediate points. Bonus points are available
0:24:59 > 0:25:00for the connections.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Bono, rata, forma, tempore.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06They all start with pro. Pro Bono, pro rata, pro forma, pro tempore.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09That's it. You can put pro before them all.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Harlequin, Wasp, Saint, Saracen.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13All rugby clubs.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16Rugby union clubs. Exactly right.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19Saffron, Lemmy, Fish, Skin.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22They are all single word pseudonyms for musicians.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24That's right. They're singers.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27It's Saffron from Republica, Lemmy from Motorhead,
0:25:27 > 0:25:29Fish from Marillion and Skin from Skunk Anansie.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32Single word musicians or singers.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34And the last one. Rock, trapper, shark, maniac.
0:25:37 > 0:25:38Blue shark? No.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42Drawing a blank? I will tell you. They are all styles of poker player.
0:25:42 > 0:25:43Well, you'd know that.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46A rock would be a tight player. Trapper, it's obvious.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Shark, one to avoid. Maniac, super-raiser.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51They are types of poker player.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53So, four points for the groups. Three for the connections.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55That is a total of seven.
0:25:55 > 0:26:00Let's see how that leaves the scores as we enter the final round.
0:26:00 > 0:26:05The Eggheads have 11 points. The Davids also have 11 points.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11So, it will all be decided by missing vowels.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13Going into Round Four, just to make me feel more comfortable,
0:26:13 > 0:26:16someone has crept in and left these lovely framed pictures
0:26:16 > 0:26:18of Dermot Murnaghan and Jeremy Vine.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22Just like I've got in my bedroom at home. So that's nice for me.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25For you, I'd like to see fingers on buzzers, teams.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29The first category are all...
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Don't know this one?
0:26:38 > 0:26:40It's In vitro fertilisation for IVF.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42Next clue.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44- BELL - Davids.
0:26:44 > 0:26:45Leg before wicket.
0:26:45 > 0:26:46LBW. Correct.

0:27:10 > 0:27:11- BELL - Davids.
0:27:11 > 0:27:12Tess Of The D'Urbervilles.
0:27:12 > 0:27:13I'm afraid you lose a point.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16Possible bonus, Eggheads.
0:27:16 > 0:27:17Too long.
0:27:17 > 0:27:18It's Eats Shoots And Leaves
0:27:18 > 0:27:20by Lynne Truss. Next clue.
0:27:21 > 0:27:22- BELL - Davids.

0:27:27 > 0:27:28The Female Eunuch.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Germaine Greer. That's correct.
0:27:30 > 0:27:31Next category...
0:27:35 > 0:27:36- BELL - Davids.
0:27:36 > 0:27:37Enfant Terrible.

0:27:49 > 0:27:50- BELL - Eggheads.
0:27:50 > 0:27:51Je ne sais quoi.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Correct. Next category...
0:27:57 > 0:27:58- BELL - Eggheads.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00Grandfather bassoon.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06I'm afraid you actually lose a point
0:28:06 > 0:28:08as it's grandfather AND bassoon.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10The N and the D are there,
0:28:10 > 0:28:12but it was too late to throw it over.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Looking at the scores, the Eggheads have got 13 points,
