TVTranscript
00:00Hello and welcome to Only Connect.
00:24As the Duke of Wellington said at the Battle of Waterloo,
00:26Hard Pounding This Gentleman, Let's See Who Will Pound The Longest,
00:31a lyric sadly cut from the ABBA song.
00:35Hoping they'll be pounding the longest tonight are, on my right,
00:40Julianne Morland, a diagnostic radiographer
00:43who was two-time university karate champion.
00:47Nilak Sardu, who once trained to operate a nuclear reactor.
00:51And their captain, Steve Ash,
00:53who slept through a bear attacking his cabin in the Rocky Mountains.
00:58United by diagnosing the difficult, they are the Scanners.
01:02Steve, in your first heat, you didn't recognise some David Bowie albums.
01:06Yes.
01:07What do you listen to?
01:09A lot of Foo Fighters, a lot of Feeder, a lot of rock,
01:12and a lot of David Bowie.
01:15So, yeah.
01:17But what was a high point of the heat?
01:19What's a happier memory?
01:20I think we had a very solid round two.
01:22I think we did very well in the sequences round
01:24and we were able to hold our heads high from that.
01:26So, yeah.
01:27You're a very good team.
01:28It's the stage of the competition
01:30where some very good teams
01:32who met teams that did a bit better on the night
01:34meet each other.
01:36And you will be facing this evening, on my left,
01:38Hannah Fitton, who's the captain of Franchester United football team.
01:44Sam Morris, who thought he was allergic to limes for three years
01:48and turned out not to be.
01:49And their captain, Kai Laderman,
01:52who had appendicitis while sitting his physics A-level.
01:56United by cheering at championships,
01:58they are the benchwarmers.
02:00Kai, in your heat, both teams actually buzzed in early quite a lot,
02:04after a lot of two and three clues.
02:05Is that a gamble you take now that you can be knocked out
02:09or was it a first round strategy?
02:12I think it's just about sort of trying to get
02:14those first few nerves out of the way, you know.
02:18The earlier we can answer the questions at the start,
02:20the less nervous we're going to be.
02:22So, you know, I couldn't wait holding off the buzzer for much longer.
02:26What have you been kicking yourselves for since the last match?
02:29We're gutted about Monet paintings.
02:32But I think otherwise, I think we held ourselves pretty well.
02:35But we were just, we were washed away on the missing vials.
02:38So, we hold our heads up high.
02:40You can all hold your heads up high for the next half hour
02:44and then three of you can slink away, ashamed and broken.
02:48Scanners, you won the toss.
02:49You'll be going first.
02:50Please choose an Egyptian hieroglyph.
02:52The lion, please.
02:53Lion.
02:54What is the connection between these apparently random clues?
02:58Here's the first.
02:59Okay, what have we got?
03:03What is it?
03:04Gamma for beta?
03:05Gamma for beta.
03:07So, capitalise the first one.
03:09One second.
03:09Next.
03:11G, U, U, G, U, U.
03:17I'm not saying anything else.
03:19Next.
03:21Laugh, laugh.
03:22Are these nonsense words in particular languages?
03:24Are these filler words like saying blah, blah in different languages?
03:45I'm afraid they're not.
03:46So, I'm going to show the fourth clue to the bench warmers for a possible bonus point.
03:50Yeah, yeah, we think these are dog noises.
03:53The equivalent of woof, woof in other languages, perhaps.
03:56That is what they are.
03:57What are the languages?
03:58That looks like gab, gab, possibly in Greek for the first one.
04:01That's right, I think you might say,
04:03How, how, okay.
04:04Might be how you make that noise.
04:05And the second one?
04:06Gosh, no, not a Scooby.
04:09Spanish is that one.
04:10And blaf, blaf, Afrikaans.
04:13And the French, waff, waff at the end.
04:16What would you like for your own question?
04:17Um, the water, please.
04:19Water.
04:20What will connect these clues?
04:21Here's the first.
04:23Japan, the Silver Cup could be a trophy, a ceremonial item.
04:27I can't think of anything.
04:29It's on flag.
04:30Next, please.
04:32Ireland 2000.
04:33That's probably what you get for winning something.
04:35Yes, winning some sort of tournament.
04:36Can we think of anything that might have that level?
04:40They both do rugby.
04:41Um, next, please.
04:44USA, a letter from the President.
04:45Oh, is this when you request this?
04:47If you get, when you maybe get to 100.
04:48When you turn 100, yeah.
04:49Yeah, and then it'd be a telegram for the last one for Britain.
04:52Let's go for it.
04:52Yep, are we happy now?
04:53Yep.
04:55We think these might be what you're awarded in certain countries for turning 100.
05:00Exactly right.
05:02And at Clue 4, we actually had a telegram in Sweden from the monarchy.
05:08What do you think of Clue 2?
05:11Great.
05:11I might take it.
05:12It's our number.
05:13Where does it come from?
05:14It's called the President's Bounty.
05:16I don't know why it's that amount particularly, but it predates the Euro.
05:20A cash prize you get in Ireland.
05:23In America, you would get a letter from the President congratulating you for turning 100,
05:27but you have to request it.
05:28Do you think they've had fewer requests in recent years or more?
05:33Do you think you have to stagger when you turn 100, depending on your politics?
05:37Is it going to be...
05:38Because you want to get a letter from the right President.
05:40Yeah, yeah.
05:41Yes, and in Japan, a silver Saki cup.
05:44You get a surprise.
05:46Rather nice, isn't it?
05:48Well, then, you get the points for that.
05:49Scanners, what would you like?
05:51Let's have the Eye of Horus, please.
05:52The Eye of Horus.
05:53These are going to be picture clues.
05:55What do they have in common?
05:56Here's the first.
06:01And next.
06:03Okay, I don't want a safety match.
06:13Much thick.
06:17Next.
06:30Two seconds.
06:31Have these all started fires?
06:38That's not the answer, I'm afraid.
06:41Benchwarmers, do you know?
06:43What have we got?
06:44And so that's David Bumble Lloyd at first, but I don't...
06:48I can't let you chat.
06:50They didn't start fires.
06:53They aim to start fires of the romantic variety.
06:59You're right, Bumble, David Lloyd Bumble,
07:03Bumble shares his name with a dating app.
07:06Clue two, the beautiful Dr Evadne Hinge,
07:09Matcha clue three and Tinder.
07:12They're all names of dating apps.
07:15You're all young, you must be on dating apps.
07:18Married.
07:20That is no bar in this day and age.
07:24Actually, I say that, I think one of them hinges it,
07:26one of them has a slogan designed to be deleted.
07:28Meaning, you know, it's intended for a long-term relationship.
07:31Because so many dating apps now are almost deliberately aimed at people
07:35to have these sort of casual hookups.
07:37So much fun to be in your 20s these days.
07:40Benchwarmers, you didn't get that bonus point,
07:42but you may choose a question, what would you like?
07:44Can we have the Horned Viper, please?
07:45Yes, you can.
07:46Here's the music question.
07:48What do these have in common?
07:49Here's the first.
07:50For normal health, I have fought a valuable lesson she had taught.
07:55Sounds a bit like Triangle Quest, possibly.
07:57That's the thing.
07:58Next, please.
07:59You gentlemen can say, hey gal, finish them floors.
08:02Get upstairs.
08:03What's wrong with you?
08:04Earn your KPM.
08:05Keep the end.
08:06What's the matter with you, Rah?
08:07Keep the end.
08:08You trust me your tips and the farts are the tips and the farts are the tips.
08:09Yeah.
08:10Next, please.
08:11I'm thinking of what it would be like she'd have been.
08:17Next, please.
08:18Two seconds.
08:30We'll try block.
08:34Not it, I'm afraid.
08:36Scanners, you have a chance for a bonus now?
08:38Summer.
08:39Not it.
08:41I think you only recognised Jennifer Lopez, Jenny from the block.
08:45Yeah.
08:46It's Jenny.
08:47Oh!
08:48So, the first one you don't know today, Lussell?
08:50Jennifer.
08:51Oh, Jenny.
08:52No?
08:53Afraid not.
08:54Lost my favourite Penny, I think, was the next line.
08:56Well, that was that.
08:57Second one, wonderful Nina Simone singing Pirate Jenny from the Threepney Opera.
09:01And Jennifer Juniper.
09:03Donovan was clue three.
09:05All Jennys.
09:06What would you like next, Scanners?
09:09Let's have Twisted Flax, please.
09:11Twisted Flax.
09:12What connects these clues?
09:13Here's the first.
09:14Okay.
09:15It's got films.
09:16Cluedo.
09:17Um, next.
09:18Russian arc.
09:19It's Russian arc.
09:20Anything ringing a bell with this one?
09:21Yeah.
09:22Um, next.
09:23A bit of mad.
09:24This is a movie.
09:25Um, then it wants to use like, um, one short takes or something like this, huh?
09:28Birdman did.
09:29I don't remember about rope.
09:30Should we get one more?
09:31Next.
09:32Yes, one in trouble.
09:33Yeah.
09:34Uh, we think these movies all involve one shot takes.
09:35Absolutely right.
09:36Very well done.
09:37Which of them have you seen?
09:38Um, I've seen none of them, but Neil actually, I presume, has seen every single one.
09:41I've seen 1917 and part of rope and part of Birdman.
09:42Why does Steve think you'd have seen them all?
09:43I watch more films than he does?
09:44Um, you're not particularly a fan of the single take film.
09:45No.
09:46Very well done.
09:47All films.
09:48Right.
09:49One film.
09:50Okay.
09:51Next.
09:52Yes?
09:53Uh, we think these movies all involve one shot takes.
09:54Absolutely right.
09:55Very well done.
09:56Which of them have you seen?
09:57Um, I've seen none of them, but Neil actually, I presume, has seen every single one.
09:59I've seen 1917 and part of rope and part of Birdman.
10:02man. Why does Steve think you'd have seen them all? I watch more films than he does.
10:07He's not particularly a fan of the single take film. Very well done. All films done in a single
10:14take or so it looks. Russian Ark, the only one that was actually shot in one take, Rope, the
10:19Alfred Hitchcock, actually a series of 10-minute takes which he said himself, Hitchcock, was an
10:24experiment that didn't work but they all look like they were so if you go to the cinema and
10:29see any of those, it appears brilliant artistry. Benchwarmers, one question remains, the two
10:36reads. What connects these clues? Here's the first.
10:39Post-modern, it's an argument, era, anything in the words most opposed. Next please. Boris Johnson,
10:49Prime Minister, 2019, 22, author, 72 virgins. Next please. Frozen yoghurt, Froyo Bojo, Pomo.
10:58Yeah, yes. We think these are all abbreviated to rhyming little phrases like Bojo and Froyo.
11:07That's exactly right. What do you think the last clue would have been? Slow-mo, slow motion? Slow
11:14motion. I had never heard that post-modern might be abbreviated to Pomo. What a revolting idea.
11:20That means at the end of round one, the scanners have one point, the benchwarmers have five.
11:27We'll play round two now. The sequence is round. Scanners, you'll be going first again. What would you like?
11:34Let's have two reads please. Two reads. These are going to be picture clues. What would you expect to see in the fourth picture? Here's the first.
11:42It's going to be a kind of semicircle type shape facing towards the right. It's going to be the inside of a letter D.
12:05You're unlucky there. You've buzzed in too early. I'm going to show the third in a sequence to the benchwarmers for a possible bonus point.
12:15So it's the next one that can be filled in. I need an answer quickly. It's the O, the inside of an O, an oval.
12:21The inside of an O. Where you're unlucky, Scanners, is of course there is no inside of a C. It's open. It's a sequence of the enclosed letters.
12:30You could probably make a sequence that went CD, but if you see the third clue, you'll find it's a D. The next enclosed letter is an O.
12:38So you get the bonus point. Benchwarmers. And what would you like for your own question?
12:42We'll have the Eye of Horus, please. Eye of Horus. What would come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
12:48Eldoret. Any ideas? Eldorado, maybe. Some anagrams. Little Dorit, maybe. Slim out, I'm not sure.
12:55Maybe. Next, please. Nakuru. It could be place names, people names. Nothing in the words that I can see.
13:03Next, please. Mombasa. Oh, this is maybe place names getting more modern. I don't know.
13:10OK. Do you think it might be the same place? It's not Mumbai, is it? Quite possibly. No. I think it's in Africa.
13:16Kinshasa, yeah. I mean, Kinshasa is a capital. It sounded like that. But that's tenuous.
13:22And Kinshasa is in Africa. Yeah, and what are we going to get? Some sort of big city, maybe?
13:26Oh, good. One second.
13:29We'll try Kinshasa. Not the answer, I'm afraid.
13:33Scanners, you've got the chance of a bonus now. Do you know?
13:35Is it Nairobi? The answer is Nairobi. And do you know why?
13:39Are these cities in Kenya getting progressively bigger?
13:42That's right. They're very much not the same city.
13:44They are different cities in Kenya in order of the most populous.
13:48And the most people would be in Nairobi.
13:51Well done, you get that bonus. What would you like for your question?
13:54Let's have the Horned Viper, please. OK.
13:56What would come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
14:00OK, stone, to be honest at this point. Next.
14:05James Cleven, that's T-U-T. So what's stone?
14:09L, let's bring it to S-T. So that's L-T-U-V-W-W-W.
14:15Go for a joke.
14:18Volkswagen.
14:19Is the right answer. You are better in round two.
14:23We're so starters.
14:24What do you think clue three would have been?
14:26Ultraviolet.
14:27Yes, it would.
14:28Let's bring up the sequence. Please explain it.
14:30Because these things are either abbreviated or known as two letters
14:33which are consecutive in the alphabet.
14:35We have S-T for stone, T-U is the Sainsbury's brand,
14:38U-V for ultraviolet and then V-W would follow for Volkswagen.
14:41Exactly right.
14:42You're scientists. Can you explain this?
14:44Bees, apparently, can see ultraviolet light in the same way
14:48that, you know, dogs can hear things that a human ear can't hear.
14:51Bees can see ultraviolet.
14:53How do we know that?
14:55I'm a qualitative researcher.
14:56I did lots of questionnaires with bees.
14:59And that was their feedback.
15:01You see these things.
15:03I sit here week after week and go, you know, bees can see ultraviolet.
15:06Next question.
15:07How? Why?
15:09How would you know?
15:10Like, you could play a high-pitched noise to a dog
15:12and if it looked unhappy you'd assume it could hear it.
15:15How you can tell a bee, is it reaching for the suntan lotion?
15:19We simply don't know.
15:20Benchwarmers, what would you like?
15:22Uh, Twisted Flax, please.
15:24Twisted Flax.
15:25What would come forth in this sequence?
15:27Here's the first.
15:28Time person, so time person of the year is a regular award.
15:32Could it be of the year?
15:33Could it be different time periods that we're awarding?
15:36We don't know.
15:37Next, please.
15:39Premier League manager of the month.
15:41Yeah, so year, month, week, day.
15:44Could it be week?
15:45I think you do have of the week.
15:46What would you do?
15:47Would we want to go for another one?
15:48Just to be sure.
15:49Yeah, we probably should.
15:51Yeah, go on.
15:52Next, please.
15:54That's probably so much for match of the day.
15:56Yeah, match of the day.
15:57Perfect.
15:58Match.
15:59For what reason?
16:00Match of the day.
16:01Exactly right.
16:02We went with...
16:03Nice.
16:04...of the year, of the month, of the week, of the day.
16:07Now, this is interesting.
16:08I said, would you buzz in early in a match where you can get knocked out?
16:12The answer is no.
16:13Because you knew this at clue one, I think.
16:15I think so.
16:16Yeah, we were nervy on the direction and the different steps.
16:20So, we'll play it safe this time.
16:22Play it safe.
16:23Well, the answer is soup or match.
16:26Back to you, scanners, for a choice.
16:28Water, please.
16:29Water.
16:30What would come fourth in this sequence?
16:31Here's the first.
16:34Corporation tax.
16:35There's a particular incentive.
16:37I think it's like 18%.
16:39Next.
16:43Corporation tax is maybe 10 or 12%, 18%.
16:45VT is 18%.
16:46We're going to need another one.
16:47VT is 18%.
16:48And next.
16:49Is this in the order that it's taken out of...
16:54No, it's corporation tax.
16:56Is this what they contribute to the economy?
16:58What's the biggest kind of contribution for...
17:01Ah, so we did...
17:02Income tax.
17:03Just income tax.
17:04Yeah.
17:05OK.
17:06Do I have to go for that?
17:07Income tax.
17:08Well done.
17:09Income tax.
17:10Is the right answer.
17:11Well done.
17:12And why would that be?
17:13Nelix?
17:14We think it's the biggest source of income for the government.
17:22That's exactly right.
17:23It's the taxes that bring in the most revenue, going from corporation tax up to income tax.
17:29Despite many people's best attempts to avoid it, that still brings in the most money.
17:34Well done.
17:35Benchwarmers, one question remains.
17:37Lion, you'll be seeing the first in a sequence.
17:40What comes forth?
17:41Time starts now.
17:42100% of items could be the word items.
17:45Yeah.
17:46Everything.
17:47Think of the letters.
17:48Next, please.
17:49Eviquitously.
17:50So that means common.
17:51Commonly.
17:52OK.
17:53So it appears in there.
17:54100% of items.
17:55What could it be?
17:56Everything.
17:57It's not everywhere, could it be?
17:58Everything, everywhere.
17:59Yeah, everything, all at once.
18:00Yeah.
18:01What could it be that?
18:02It's going to be the third one.
18:03It could just be everywhere, though.
18:05Yeah, it is.
18:06It is everywhere.
18:07So everything, everywhere, all at, and then once in the end?
18:10Maybe it would be at once.
18:11I think it would be at once.
18:12OK.
18:13If it would be all, it would be at once.
18:14OK.
18:15Are we happy?
18:16No, let's do it.
18:17Risk this one.
18:18We'll risk this one.
18:19Immediately.
18:22For what reason?
18:23At once.
18:24Is the right answer.
18:26We went with simultaneously in the sense of at the same time.
18:30What's happening here?
18:31I think this is the film, everything, everywhere, all at once.
18:35Exactly right.
18:36That won seven Oscars in 2023, including Best Picture.
18:39You've seen that one, Nilaksh?
18:40Yes.
18:41Is it good?
18:42I enjoyed it.
18:43Is it cheerful?
18:44I think, yeah, I think a lot of parents would like it.
18:48I feel like I look at the list of Best Picture nominees thinking what would be a good film
18:56to see and they're increasingly just bleak.
18:59This one is not.
19:00I mean, am I just old?
19:02I like a nice romantic comedy.
19:04Is this that?
19:05Not quite, no.
19:07No, I suspected not.
19:09That means at the end of round two, the scanners have seven points.
19:13The bench warmers have 11.
19:18Onwards to the connecting wall.
19:19And bench warmers, you'll be going first.
19:21Would you like lion or water?
19:22We'll have lion, please.
19:23Lion.
19:24Two and a half minutes to solve it.
19:26Starting now.
19:28There goes Jane.
19:29Spice Girls.
19:30Jerry Girls.
19:31There goes Golden Girls.
19:32Any other girls?
19:33Cheater Girls.
19:34Cheeky Girls.
19:35Cheeky Girls.
19:36Anything else?
19:37Cheater.
19:38Cheater Girls?
19:39Yeah.
19:40Okay.
19:41You've got County Amar, County Antrim.
19:43Good show.
19:44H.
19:45She's got the Irish counties.
19:46Amar down, Tyrone and Antrim.
19:49And Firminar.
19:50If press, I'm not sure if Tyrone's in Northern Ireland, but I know these ones are.
19:53Okay.
19:54Shall I cycle them?
19:55Yeah.
19:56Yeah.
19:57Cheeky Girls.
19:58Toes.
19:59Um.
20:00Blue cabinet.
20:01Um.
20:02What else have we got?
20:04Old grey teeth.
20:05Nice.
20:06Three lives now, plenty of time.
20:07Okay.
20:08Yep.
20:09Okay.
20:10Um.
20:11Leg, cheek, ear.
20:12Leg.
20:13So, let's look at the other ones.
20:15Slowly.
20:16Okay.
20:17Oh, these are all feathers?
20:18Yes.
20:19These are all feathers.
20:20Are we happy?
20:21Yeah.
20:22Are we happy?
20:23So, you made short work of that one.
20:25Tell me about the connection, starting with the first blue group, Derry, Golden and so
20:29on.
20:30These can all be followed by girls.
20:31Yes, they can.
20:32And what are the entities that you get when you've done that?
20:35Derry Girls, fantastic sitcom about 90s Ireland.
20:39Mm-hmm.
20:40Spice Girls.
20:41Obviously, the famous five.
20:42Golden Girls.
20:43I think it's famous, but I don't know it.
20:45I think it's in the film.
20:46I'm not sure.
20:47No.
20:48The Golden Girls.
20:49Thank you for being a friend.
20:50No.
20:51There was a long running sitcom about four, well, it was supposed to be four old ladies.
20:56That's why it's called that.
20:57I mean, if you look now, I think they were probably about 43.
21:01Bea Arthur was the star, and one of them was her mother, who I think was actually, the actress
21:06was younger than one of the others.
21:08But the idea, just because in those days, everybody had white hair from the age of about
21:1128, and they all lived in a house.
21:13It was a great sitcom, actually.
21:14Cheetah Girls, what was that?
21:16I think that is a Disney Channel show that I grew up with, so I can't quite remember
21:21it, though.
21:22It feels like a long time ago since then.
21:23It was a series of novels by Deborah Gregory, adapted for Disney.
21:27And the green group, Tyrone, Antrim, and so on.
21:30These are Irish counties.
21:31You could be more specific.
21:33Northern Irish counties.
21:34They are counties of Northern Ireland.
21:36And the next group, Down, Plume, and so on.
21:38These are all types of feather, or related to feathers.
21:41They're all feathery things.
21:42And the last group, Cheeky, Lego, and so on.
21:45They begin with body parts.
21:47They do.
21:48Cheek, leg, chin, and ear, with a letter added.
21:50So that is all the connections as well as the groups.
21:53That is a total of eight, plus the bonus makes ten the maximum score.
21:57Let's bring in their opponents now, give them the other wall, and see how they get on.
22:00Scanners, you've got the water wall.
22:02Two and a half minutes to solve it.
22:04Starting now.
22:07OK.
22:08French gully, trough, ditch.
22:11We've also got some secretches of extra letters.
22:15We've got shark, manta, tench.
22:18Is there another one on the list there?
22:21Cod.
22:22Cod, yeah.
22:23Down there.
22:24What did you say about the gully?
22:25Gully?
22:26Gully, trough, ditch.
22:27Dike.
22:28Dike.
22:29Something like that as well, aren't there?
22:30Yeah.
22:31Um.
22:32Let's circle through a few of those.
22:35We're not missing a fourth there, are we?
22:42I've not tried.
22:43I think I've tried all of those.
22:44Are there...?
22:45Is a foss also something like that?
22:47I don't know.
22:48Um.
22:49Davy?
22:50Is it Davy Jones?
22:51Ruth Jones?
22:52Um.
22:53Dave, Davy.
22:54Davy Jones is spelled differently.
22:55Wasn't Davy a BBC commissioner?
22:58Greg Dyke?
23:00Um.
23:01Is it Tim Davy?
23:02Tim Davies?
23:03Tim Davies?
23:04Um.
23:05I'm not sure about which ones these are.
23:06I think we'd find one of the other categories.
23:07Okay.
23:08Um.
23:09Car.
23:10Red Car.
23:11Red Bridge.
23:12Are these places Red Roof?
23:14Red Ditch.
23:15Red Ditch.
23:16Yes, well done.
23:17Three lives now.
23:18Um.
23:19So we've got here, we've still got gully, trough, ha ha, and I'm sure I've tried that
23:23already.
23:24Do you want me to try that again one last time?
23:25So you would give the other ones commissioners to use?
23:27I'm not sure.
23:28I mean Davy.
23:29I wonder if it's the BBC.
23:32Because of Greg Dyke.
23:34Yeah.
23:35And I'm sure there was a Davy on the list.
23:36Can I go for these four?
23:38If I add Davy to this list?
23:40Yeah.
23:41You saw it for me.
23:43Very well done.
23:44Great indeed.
23:45But what about the connections?
23:46Tell me about the first group.
23:47Cord and so on.
23:49These are sea creatures which have an extra R in the name.
23:52R has been added to the names of fish, cod, shark, tench and manta.
23:58And the next group.
23:59Ditch, car and so on.
24:01These are places which when you add the word red to the front of them.
24:05Exactly.
24:06So, redditch, redcar, redbridge and redroof.
24:08And the next group.
24:10Dyke, Davy, Hall and Foote.
24:12I think the BBC director generals.
24:15They have all been perhaps directors general, one might say, of the BBC.
24:21Greg Dyke, Tim Davy, Tony Hall and I think it's RW Foote.
24:26Even if he was in the 1940s, you wouldn't view someone's first name in those days.
24:30Far too rude.
24:31But some initials, Foote.
24:33And the last group.
24:34Gully, Trough and so on.
24:36These are all ditches.
24:37They are all types of ditch.
24:39So that is all the groups, all the connectors and the bonus.
24:42It's a maximum of ten points.
24:43Very well done.
24:44Let's have a look at the scores going into the final round.
24:47The scanners have 17 points.
24:50The bench warmers have 21.
24:54So two perfect walls has changed nothing.
24:57It will be the missing vowels that decide who stays in the competition and who goes home.
25:01Good luck teams and fingers on buzzers.
25:03The first group are all animal idioms.
25:10Benchwarmers.
25:11Frog in your throat.
25:12Correct.
25:13Benchwarmers.
25:16Butterflies in your stomach.
25:18Yes, it is.
25:22Benchwarmers.

26:17Scanners.
26:18Robin, Men in Tights.
26:19Well done.
26:22Scanners.
26:23Kidult.
26:24Correct.
26:25Next category.
26:26Board games that have won the Spiel des Jahres.
26:30Scanners.
26:31Ticket to arrive.
26:32Ticket to arrive.
26:33Correct.
26:37That's it.
26:38That's the end of the quiz.
26:40And what a round four.
26:42I can tell you one point divides the winners and losers here.
26:48Any of you could stay in the competition, but it is with 26, the Benchwarmers.
26:54Well done.
26:55Very well done.
26:56Well played.
26:57Scanners.
26:58I mean, heroic.
26:59Steve, particularly.
27:00I mean, your team was behind and you went further behind and then you just powered through to one point from victory.
27:07Probably that's no consolation, but very well done.
27:10And I'm really sorry to lose your team.
27:13I mean, you have a proper grown up job.
27:16A bunch of radiographers.
27:17You've taken time to come and play the quiz.
27:19We're so happy to have you.
27:21Thanks so much for coming.
27:22Thank you for having us.
27:24Earlier in the show, we talked about single takes and editing and people that are interested in that sort of thing might want this little glimpse of life here at Only Connect.
27:33Obviously, the broadcast show has to be half an hour.
27:36But I don't know while we're recording it how much time is taken up with actual gameplay, the important stuff of the questions and how much is just chat that can go.
27:46That's decided in the edit, which all happens after the whole series is recorded.
27:51So what I do at the end of every episode, and I've been doing it for 11 weeks now, is read all of Paradise Lost.
27:59And then later on in the edit, they'll put in whatever bit we've got to.
28:03So settle in teams from the top.
28:06He trusted to have equaled the most high if he opposed and with ambitious aim against the throne and monarchy of God, raised in pious war in heaven and battle proud.
28:17With vain attempt.
28:19Here's the mighty power.
28:21Here's the mighty power.
28:22Here's the mighty power.
28:23Here's the mighty power.
28:24Here's the mighty power.
