0:01:30 > 0:01:35ahead and had 165 points at the gong, compared to their opponents' 130.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39Despite their international line-up, they were quick to recognise

0:02:19 > 0:02:22Fingers on the buzzers. Your first starter for ten.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25In Roman legend, which hero escaped from the fallen city of Troy...
0:02:26 > 0:02:27Aeneas.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Aeneas is correct, yes.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34The first set of bonuses are on prime ministers, Nuffield.
0:02:34 > 0:02:39Born in Dublin in 1737, the Earl of Shelburne became Prime Minister

0:03:03 > 0:03:06who became Prime Minister after a meeting of the Carlton Club
0:03:06 > 0:03:10in October 1922 during which he spoke against the coalition?
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Arthur Bonar-Law.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16It was Andrew Bonar-Law, but Bonar-Law was the surname I wanted
0:03:16 > 0:03:20and I got it. Thanks. Right, ten points for this.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23What single-word term was coined by the author
0:03:23 > 0:03:28William Gibson in 1982 in a short story called Burning Chrome
0:03:28 > 0:03:32and is used to mean the virtual world created by the links...
0:03:33 > 0:03:34Cyberspace?
0:03:34 > 0:03:37Cyberspace is right, yes.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Your bonuses are on animals this time, Nuffield.

0:03:51 > 0:03:55The beagle is a dog breed whose ancestors are thought to
0:03:55 > 0:03:57include which extinct breed?
0:03:57 > 0:04:01Its six-letter name is a traditional pub name, perhaps because of
0:04:01 > 0:04:05its association with heraldic badges and with the Earls of Shrewsbury.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Should have gone to more pubs!
0:04:14 > 0:04:15Sorry, we don't know.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18It's a talbot. You sound as if you've never been in a pub!

0:04:51 > 0:04:52Oh. Er...
0:04:52 > 0:04:53Acceleration?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56No. If you buzz, you must answer straight away, and I'm going to have
0:04:56 > 0:04:59to fine you five points for an incorrect interruption.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01..space on the x-axis, time on the y-axis,
0:05:01 > 0:05:05straight lines depict fermions, wavy lines depict bosons.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08They're used by physicists to calculate processes
0:05:08 > 0:05:12such as electron-electron scattering in quantum electrodynamics.
0:05:15 > 0:05:16Feynman diagram?
0:05:16 > 0:05:17Correct.

0:05:27 > 0:05:32coin in 1978 to denote an unusually strong source of gamma rays?
0:05:32 > 0:05:37The extragalactic object Markarian 421 is an example.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39- Quasar.- Quasar?
0:05:39 > 0:05:40No, it's blazar.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Varying by as much as 50% flux in a single day,
0:05:43 > 0:05:47for what does the abbreviation OVV stand when referring to
0:05:47 > 0:05:53a class of blazar consisting of a few rare, bright radio galaxies?
0:05:57 > 0:06:00I don't know. Any ideas?
0:06:00 > 0:06:02I don't know.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- No, we don't know. - It's Optically Violent Variable.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09And finally, named after a US astronomer in 1943
0:06:09 > 0:06:13and believed by many astronomers to be the same objects as quasars
0:06:13 > 0:06:18but viewed differently, what type of active galactic nuclei show
0:06:18 > 0:06:20broad emission lines in their spectrum?
0:06:21 > 0:06:24- Nominate Osborn.- Seyfert galaxies?
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Correct. Ten points for this.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30Dating from the early 2nd century BC, the Rosetta Stone carries
0:06:30 > 0:06:33the same inscription in three distinct writing systems.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Please name two of them.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Er, Greek and Ancient Egyptian.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41That's correct, yes.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Right, you get a set of bonuses on the Circle Line.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51In each case, give the single-word name of the station that
0:06:51 > 0:06:53shares its name with the following.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55And for the avoidance of doubt, we're talking about the
0:06:55 > 0:06:59Circle Line of the Singapore Mass Rapid Transit System.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00LAUGHTER
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Firstly, ultimately from the Latin meaning "levelled"
0:07:03 > 0:07:07and later applied to the flat ground on the top of a rampart,
0:07:07 > 0:07:10the term that now denotes an area where one walks for pleasure,
0:07:10 > 0:07:11typically by the sea.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35It appears in the names of two US states.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- Dakota?- Think so?
0:07:38 > 0:07:40I think it's Dakota.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43But wouldn't it be weird to have Dakota in...
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- Or Carolina. - I feel better about Dakota.- OK.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Dakota.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51Dakota is correct, yes. We're going to take a picture round.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55For your picture starter, you'll see part of the cast list of a film.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57For ten points, I want both the name
0:07:57 > 0:07:59of the missing actress who won an Oscar

0:08:19 > 0:08:22of the actress who won an Oscar for her performance in that film.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Five points. In each case I'd like the name of the actor
0:08:25 > 0:08:27and her character. Firstly...

0:09:12 > 0:09:14Start with Smith.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Frances McDormand and...Smith.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19No, it was Marge Gunderson, was the name of the character.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23Never mind, you did well enough there. Right, ten points for this.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Quote - "Do you feel an uncomfortable heat at the pit of your stomach,
0:09:26 > 0:09:30"sir, and a nasty thumping at the top of your head? Ah, not yet.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34"It will lay hold of you. I call it the detective fever."
0:09:34 > 0:09:38These are the word of Gabriel Betteredge in which work of 1868,
0:09:38 > 0:09:41often considered the first detective...
0:09:42 > 0:09:43The Moonstone?
0:09:43 > 0:09:44The Moonstone's right, yes.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Right, these bonuses are on pairs of anagrams.
0:09:50 > 0:09:54In each case, give both words from the definitions.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Yeah, trace and...caret?!
0:10:23 > 0:10:25- No, it's laced and decal. - Ah.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28Secondly, two seven-letter words, one meaning to cover,

0:12:55 > 0:12:56Quiz.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58Quiz is correct, yes.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06Right, your bonuses are on a mathematical function, Warwick.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10What is the name of the mathematical function that for positive integers N
0:13:10 > 0:13:14is defined as the product of the integers from 1 to N?
0:13:15 > 0:13:16Factorial.
0:13:16 > 0:13:17Factorial is correct.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Which 18th-century Scottish mathematician gives his name
0:13:20 > 0:13:24to a commonly used approximation to the factorial function?
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Could be Napier?
0:13:28 > 0:13:29I'm not convinced.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32Napier?
0:13:32 > 0:13:35No, it's Stirling, the Stirling approximation.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39And finally, the gamma function evaluated at N = 10
0:13:39 > 0:13:41is equal to the factorial of which integer?
0:13:46 > 0:13:50Y'know, I don't know, and I feel like I probably should.
0:13:50 > 0:13:51Just guess.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53100.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56No, it's 9. We're going to take a music round.

0:14:27 > 0:14:28Handel?
0:14:28 > 0:14:33No, it was one of Vivaldi's concerti for recorders.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36So we'll come to the music bonuses in a moment or two.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38In the meantime, here's a starter question.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42A Kerr-Newman with both charge and angular momentum,

0:14:46 > 0:14:50are two of the four possible types of what astronomical object?
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Black hole?
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Correct.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03Right, so we're going to go back to the music bonuses now,
0:15:03 > 0:15:07and your music bonuses, three more reminders that the recorder is
0:15:07 > 0:15:09good for more than just primary-school assemblies.
0:15:09 > 0:15:13I want the name of the German-born composer in each case, please.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14Firstly for five...
0:15:30 > 0:15:31Handel?
0:15:31 > 0:15:34It is Handel, yes. And secondly...
0:15:41 > 0:15:42Bach?
0:15:42 > 0:15:45No, that's Telemann. And finally...
0:15:50 > 0:15:51Bach.
0:15:51 > 0:15:55That IS Bach, yes! Ten points for this.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58In addition to methane, what gas is released suddenly and in great
0:15:58 > 0:16:03quantity in the phenomenon known as a limnic eruption or lake overturn?
0:16:03 > 0:16:05The gas...
0:16:05 > 0:16:06Carbon monoxide?
0:16:06 > 0:16:09No. You lose five points.
