00:00Music
00:16Good evening.
00:18Elvis Presley once said,
00:20some people tap their feet, some people snap their fingers
00:23and some people sway back and forth.
00:26I guess I just sort of do them all together.
00:29Let's meet the teams.
00:31On my right, Fiona Titcombe, who's cycled round Cuba.
00:35Thomas Carey, who joined some Buddhist monks
00:38to watch Chelsea play Burnley.
00:40And their captain, James Horton, a fan of the Sopranos.
00:44United by the need for speed, they are the 5Ks.
00:48James, if I had accidentally left the questions in the make-up room,
00:53would you have read them?
00:55Absolutely not.
00:57We had a question earlier in the series about people
00:59that cheat on quizzes.
01:00Why do people do that?
01:02Oh, I think there's a very long answer for that.
01:05I've heard of some cracking stories of cheating in quiz,
01:08but I've still none the wiser as to why they did it.
01:11But it provides a lot of amusement when they get found out.
01:14Well, we'll soon know.
01:16If you answer any of these questions correctly,
01:18you've definitely seen them in advance.
01:19Yeah.
01:20Well done for making the quarter-finals.
01:23Your opponents are on my left.
01:26Lizzie Riley, who can lick her elbow.
01:29George Dickinson, who ripped his trousers
01:31doing the cha-cha slide.
01:33And their captain, Dia Shah, whose personal best time
01:36on a rodeo ball is seven seconds.
01:39Oh, yes, they are. Oh, no, they didn't.
01:42Dia, what starts with a T, ends with an E and has hundreds
01:46of letters in it.
01:48Oh.
01:49Time.
01:50No, it's the post office.
01:52Good luck.
01:54You won the toss, but you've decided to put your opponents
01:56in first.
01:57So, five Ks, please choose a hieroglyph.
02:00Can we have the twisted flax, please?
02:01The twisted flax?
02:02What is the connection between these clues?
02:05Here's the first.
02:07Oh, no way.
02:09Is this something about the sun?
02:11I don't know.
02:12Next, please, Victoria.
02:13It's a festival.
02:14In 1994 for the Eagles.
02:16I don't know.
02:17California, maybe.
02:18That's all I can do.
02:19No, that was before that.
02:20I don't know.
02:21Next, please.
02:22Eagles are team.
02:23Ninth circle.
02:24I should know this.
02:27No, not too sure on this.
02:29Next, please.
02:31Colloquially never.
02:33When, oh, hell freezes over.
02:35Oh, yeah.
02:36Yeah, because there's a place in Norway called hell,
02:37isn't there?
02:38Yeah, yeah.
02:39We'll go with that.
02:40Um, uh, hell freezing over.
02:43We'll try that.
02:44That is the connection.
02:45Well done, Tom.
02:46What can you tell me about these clues?
02:48I guess, obviously, the last clue is the saying.
02:50Um, then the penultimate clue, I'm guessing, hell freezes over.
02:57Yeah, the ninth circle of Dante's Inferno is for traitors and betrayers.
03:01Judas Iscariot is in there.
03:02The idea is they denied God's love, so they're the furthest from his warmth.
03:07And they denied human bonds, so they're locked into ice.
03:11And, uh, so it's all an icy area of hell.
03:14The Eagles had an album in 1994, Hell Freezes Over.
03:17And that first clue, yes, there's a village in Norway.
03:20It means luck.
03:21You probably don't pronounce it hell, but it's a tourist attraction.
03:23It's called hell and the temperatures can reach minus 25 degrees.
03:26So, obviously, that freezes.
03:28Well done.
03:29Oh, no, they didn't.
03:30What would you like?
03:31Lion, please.
03:32Lion.
03:33What is the connection between these clues?
03:35Here's the first.
03:36Yeah.
03:37Next, please.
03:38Are they buttons or something?
03:39No.
03:40I don't think they are.
03:41It could be, but I don't know.
03:42Next, please.
03:43OK.
03:44Oh, is it the, uh, the...
03:45Is it when potassium buttons, it goes purple?
03:46Oh, yeah, it might be.
03:47Yeah.
03:48Should we go next, just in case?
03:49Yeah.
03:50Next, please.
03:51Yeah.
03:52Like fireworks.
03:53Yeah, so, yeah, so, elements and...
03:55Oh, yeah, it might be.
03:56Yeah.
03:57Should we go next, just in case?
03:58Next.
03:59Yeah.
04:00Next, please.
04:01Yeah.
04:02Like fireworks.
04:03Yeah, so, yeah, so, elements and...
04:04When they turn the colour, they turn these.
04:06Yeah, and the colour they turn when they burn.
04:08Yeah.
04:09Yeah.
04:10These are elements and the colour that they turn when they burn?
04:14Exactly right.
04:15What are those elements?
04:16You've got lithium turning red, potassium turning purple.
04:20Mm-hmm.
04:21Then sulphur goes blue and boron going...
04:24Oh, beryllium?
04:25Boron?
04:26No, it is boron.
04:27Goes green.
04:28Goes green.
04:29Yes, perfect.
04:30Following on from frozen hell, we've got burning sulphur.
04:32Appropriate for the quarter-finals of Only Connect.
04:35Well done.
04:365Ks, what would you like?
04:37Could we have the Horned Viper, please?
04:39I don't see why not.
04:41What is the connection between these clues?
04:43Here's the first.
04:44Parliament.
04:45Parliament.
04:46I don't know anything about them.
04:48Was that when they elected that really young Prime Minister?
04:50I don't know.
04:51Next, please.
04:52Two codes, associate.
04:54Do you know two codes?
04:55Oh, it's in Breaking Bad.
04:58They're twins.
04:59Could they be twins?
05:01Might twin parliaments?
05:02I don't know.
05:04Let's take another, should we?
05:05Yes.
05:06Next, please.
05:07Are they bonkers nuts?
05:08Oh, are they silent?
05:11Do they lose nuts?
05:13Let's get one more next, please.
05:16Oh, good and bad, maybe?
05:18Yes.
05:19Yeah.
05:20Good and bad.
05:21They have good and bad variants.
05:23Tell me about the clues.
05:25So, you've got good and bad cholesterol.
05:29Mm-hm.
05:30I've never read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
05:33He's got squirrels that sort out the good and bad nuts.
05:36Exactly so.
05:37Tuco's associates.
05:38Is that Tuco Salamanca from Breaking Bad?
05:41No, it's not, you see.
05:42It's Tuco from the good, the bad and the ugly.
05:44Oh.
05:45That's Eli Wallach.
05:46He's the ugly, as it were.
05:47So, his associates would be the good and the bad.
05:49And the parliaments.
05:50That's the good parliaments and the bad parliament
05:52of the 1370s.
05:54Very good.
05:55Back to you.
05:56Oh, no, they didn't.
05:57For a choice.
05:58Arco, the two reads, please.
05:59Yes, you could.
06:00These are going to be picture clues.
06:01What do they have in common?
06:02Here's the first.
06:03Claire Boulding.

06:22You've got Erin Brockovich, Michelle Obama, Claire Boulding.
06:24They're the first names of the characters.
06:25Derry Girls.

06:28Derry Girls.
06:29Derry Girls.
06:30Oh.
06:31Derry Girls.
06:32Derry Girls.
06:33Derry Girls.
06:34Is the right answer.
06:35Why is that?
06:36You've got Erin Brockovich, Michelle Obama, Claire Boulding.
06:37They're the first names of the characters.
06:38Derry Girls.
06:39Derry Girls.
06:40Derry Girls.
06:41Derry Girls.
06:42is the right answer.
06:43Why is that?
06:44You've got Erin Brockovich, Michelle Obama, Claire Boulding.
06:48They're the first names of the characters.
06:49Derry Girls.

07:04Enjoy yourselves.
07:05Here's the first clue.
07:06We're going to need another next place
07:21That's the famous. Oh, yeah, I'm so finally come shine on the next place
07:28These songs sort of given their names to like musicals that's absolutely right
07:52They share their title with jukebox musicals. What did we hear?
07:55So we heard Mamma Mia at the end
07:58Sunshine and Lee
07:59Sunshine and Lee
08:00Yeah, the Proclaimers at clue two
08:02And we all know the first one, but can't they?
08:04I'll give you a clue. It's a flying mammal from Norway
08:07Bat out of hell
08:09Bat out of hell. There we go
08:10And the third one, Viva Forever, the Spice Girls
08:13Or jukebox musical titles
08:15Oh, no, they didn't
08:17Back to you for the last question, the Eye of Horus
08:19What do these clues have in common?
08:21Here's the first
08:22Next, please
08:26Next, please
08:32Again
08:35Oh, could these be
08:37Could these be punishment

08:40Zeus punishment
08:41Next, please
08:43God
08:45But jeez, isn't Tom the one that
08:47He veiled
08:50I've nodded
08:51I've not read the Bible
08:52Yeah, maybe just angering
08:54Yeah, angering Zeus
08:56Punishments for angering the gods
09:00I need to hear something specific
09:02Zeus
09:03Not it, I'm afraid
09:055Ks, do you know?
09:07Yeah, so they punishments for looking at someone
09:09That they shouldn't have
09:10That's what it is
09:12So, Cyproetes
09:13He saw the goddess Artemis bathing naked
09:16As a punishment was turned into a woman
09:18I mean, what greater punishment, I suppose
09:20Than to live your life as a woman
09:21Gyges
09:22That's King Candorles of Lydia
09:24In ancient myth
09:25He spied on the queen
09:27He was the bodyguard
09:27And the queen said
09:28Right, now you've got to kill yourself
09:29Or my husband
09:30That's a story of Actaeon and Diana
09:32At clue three
09:33And who's Tom?
09:34A peeping Tom
09:35A peeping Tom
09:36Who looked at Lady Godiva
09:38That means at the end of round one
09:41Oh no, they didn't have two points
09:43The 5Ks have four
09:44Round two, sequence is round
09:48Spy on a naked goddess
09:49Ill will come of it

09:56Oh
09:57It's a musical sequence
09:59You'll be hearing your clues
10:00What would you expect here in fourth place?
10:02Here's the first
10:03Oh, what's this?
10:08In the heart
10:09Next, please
10:14Next, please
10:23So what was the first one?
10:32In the heart
10:32Yeah, what's this one, do we think?
10:39Yeah
10:39Two seconds
10:43We'll try a song with spades in the title
10:48Ace of spades
10:48Would not fit the suit
10:51Because I'm afraid
10:51So a bonus chance for you
10:52Oh no, they didn't
10:53Like a song by G-Eazy?
10:55I don't know
10:56Not it
10:57But I think you're closer
10:58What did we hear?
11:00Well, the first one
11:00Your group is in the heart
11:01By D-Lite
11:02Spell their name for me, please
11:03D-E-E-L-I-T-E
11:04Isn't it?
11:05No
11:06It's D-E-E-E-L-I-T-E
11:09The second artist, D-C-L-I-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E
11:39And just in case they can't, we'll stop that song right there.
11:44You may have your own question. Oh, no, they didn't. What would you like?
11:46Twisted Flax, please. Twisted Flax.
11:48What will come fourth in this sequence? Here's the first.
11:54Next, please.
12:02Next, please.
12:04Andrew Sachs.
12:05I think Sachs.
12:07I think Andrew Sachs.
12:08I think it's got an H.
12:09It could be Sachs and Jacobian period.
12:11It could be...
12:12Yeah, OK.
12:13Sachs and...
12:14What happens after Jack White's?
12:16Ian Brody.
12:18No, Stuart, Stuart.
12:19Yeah, Stuart.
12:20Adrian Brody.
12:21No, no, no, whoa.
12:23I did not...
12:24Um, I have no idea.
12:28Two seconds.
12:31Stuart?
12:32That would be very surprising.
12:35Five Ks, do you know?
12:36St Peter, why not?
12:38Yeah, I mean, I would say that's about as far from the...
12:42I mean, yes.
12:43They are the four most recent chief rabbis moving towards Ephraim Mervis.
12:51Rabbi Ephraim Mervis would have been fourth.
12:53So, no points there.
12:55What would you like, Five Ks?
12:56Water, please.
12:58Water.
12:59What would come fourth in this sequence?
13:01Here's the first.
13:04Top left, top right, middle right, so that's...
13:06Is this braille?
13:07No, braille doesn't have a...
13:08Top left.
13:09Yeah, yeah, this is braille, I think, so we need A which is just the top left on its own, right?
13:13Is it?
13:14Should we go for it?
13:15I mean, it should be DCBA, I reckon it's that.
13:16Yeah.
13:17A is definitely just the top left.
13:18OK.
13:19We'll try it.
13:21We'll try A equals top left.
13:24For five points.
13:25Well done, Tom.
13:26Absolutely magnificent.
13:27Brilliant.
13:28Very well done.
13:29What is it?
13:30It's braille, so it's where the six sort of buttons are in the braille letters for presumably DCBA.
13:37Exactly right.
13:38Give it a go.
13:39See if you can talk us through them.
13:40Well, B is the top left and the middle left.
13:44Yeah.
13:45And C, I think, is the top left and the top right.
13:48I mean, amazing!
13:49We're spelling out DCBA in braille.
13:52You've got them all correct going towards A.
13:54But do you know this because you've learned it as a quiz thing or because you thought I'll read braille?
13:59When I was six years old and did Beaver Scouts, we learned about braille by using egg cartons
14:05and we had the eggs in the different positions for the braille letters.
14:08And I guess I just remembered the first few.
14:10I think that's really brilliant.
14:12I mean, when I was little, all I did was watch television and never mind learning braille out of egg cartons.
14:16Magnificent.
14:17A very, very well-deserved five points.
14:19Well done there.
14:21Oh, no, they didn't.
14:22Let's go for a five-pointer, but on which question?
14:25George, do you want to pick?
14:26Could we have the Eye of Horus, please?
14:27The Eye of Horus.
14:29These are going to be picture clues.
14:31Here's the first.
14:32Next, please.
14:39Next, please.
14:41Next, please.
14:46Eye, fungi.
14:48Oh, I didn't see that in the corner.
14:50Yeah, I saw a plural that ends with O.
14:52Oh, I didn't.
14:53Yeah, Ali's stigmata, yeah, fungi.
14:56A plural that ends with O.
14:58I think we've got ten seconds.
15:00A plural that ends with O ends in O.
15:06Two seconds.
15:08A photo of something whose plural ends in O.
15:12And an O in the top corner.
15:13And an O in the corner.
15:14Well, I'll accept that answer.
15:16We had buffalo.
15:17I tell you what, though, I would say buffaloes.
15:21But apparently buffalo could be a plural.
15:24I'd also have accepted potato, and why?
15:27Different breeds of potato.
15:29No, because of the song.
15:30One potato, two potato, three potato, four.
15:33Stigmata, larvae, fungi, plurals going through the vowels
15:37towards something that ends in O.
15:39Well done.
15:40Back to you five Ks.
15:42What would you like?
15:43Could we have the two reads, please?
15:44Yes, you could.
15:45What would come forth in this sequence?
15:47Here's the first.
15:48Summer.
15:49Could be north-west.
15:50Could be, like, some other thing.
15:52There's no states in O.
15:54Yeah.
15:55Next, please.
15:56Spring on beauty.
15:58Spring on beauty.
16:00Spring on beauty.
16:01It'll probably be autumn we want, but I don't know.
16:03Next, please.
16:04Winter.
16:05The autograph.
16:06This is honestly.
16:08Summer.
16:10Spring.
16:11Autumn.
16:12The autograph.
16:13Are there any famous things contending autumn?
16:16It's Sadie Smith.
16:17What did you write on beauty?
16:19Yeah.
16:20Oh, maybe.
16:21Well...
16:22Two seconds.
16:24Erm, we'll try autumn and...
16:29I can't give you long.
16:31One of, erm, one of T.S. Eliot's...
16:33No.
16:34No.
16:35Oh, no, they didn't?
16:36Do you want to go for a bonus point?
16:37Erm, autumn, my life.
16:39Not it.
16:40Now, Fiona, I think you could have closed the deal here.
16:44It's autumn, white teeth.
16:46Ah.
16:47And it is about Zadie Smith, that second part.
16:50You mentioned Zadie Smith.
16:51So...
16:52Yeah, I didn't know she'd written the other.
16:53This is a sequence of novels going backwards.
16:55Yeah.
16:56The first by Ali Smith, the second by Zadie Smith.
17:00Right.
17:01So, A Smith and Zed Smith, and Ali Smith wrote the quartet Autumn, Winter, Spring, Summer.
17:07We're going backwards.
17:08Right.
17:09And Zadie Smith's first four novels going backwards towards her great debut novel, White Teeth.
17:14Oh, no, they didn't.
17:16One question remains.
17:17Lion, what will come fourth in this sequence?
17:19Here's the first.
17:20South Africa.
17:21Oh.
17:22Four out of eight, or, like...
17:23Four out of eight.
17:24No, wait, no.
17:25Ignore me.
17:26First, yeah.
17:27Next, please.
17:28OK, three out of ten.
17:29Rugby.
17:30Oh, these are...
17:31Oh, they're different fractions every time.
17:32Yeah, different fractions.
17:33Oh, is it?
17:34Is it?
17:35It's going four, three, two, one.
17:36It's like...
17:37I don't know what...
17:38It's going four, three, two, one.
17:39It's going four, three, two, one.
17:40It's going four, three, two, one.
17:41It's like...
17:42I don't know what to do.
17:43I don't know what to do.
17:44It's going four, something the first.
17:45Two, five, ten.
17:46Yeah, shall we get...
17:47Next, please.
17:48It's an independent day.
17:49It's like an independent day.
17:50It's like the first of a month.
17:51Oh, I could be.
17:53I go one out of ten.
17:57England, one out of ten.
17:58Is the right answer.
18:00And why is that?
18:02Great guess.
18:04Really?
18:05I think so.
18:06It might be something to do with cricket or rugby
18:09or one of those sort of things.
18:11We do have that sometimes here.
18:13People give an answer that's surprisingly right
18:15and they don't know why,
18:16but in their lateral minds they do.
18:19There have been ten rugby union world cups.
18:25Four were won by South Africa,
18:26three by New Zealand,
18:27two by Australia and one by England.
18:30But why have we got four out of eight
18:32rather than four out of ten?
18:33Is it because they didn't do the first two or something?
18:35Well, is it like an apartheid?
18:36Due to apartheid they didn't play a couple,
18:38so South Africa have only contested eight world cups,
18:41leaving them with a 50% win rate.
18:43Going back towards one out of ten,
18:44England, very well done.
18:47That means at the end of round two,
18:49oh no they didn't have six points,
18:51the 5Ks have nine.
18:53One of these teams is about to meet their last connecting wall of the series,
19:00which will it be?
19:01You're going first?
19:02Oh no they didn't.
19:03Would you like Lion or Horta?
19:05Lion please.
19:06Lion?
19:07Two and a half minutes to solve it,
19:08starting now.
19:10Oh brilliant.
19:11Oh, Emma Bartley,
19:13some Maggie, Seymour,
19:14Ned, Krusty,
19:15there's loads,
19:16so we've just got it.
19:17Yeah.
19:18Pret a manger.
19:19Yes.
19:20The Quarrymen's an old name for the Beatles,
19:21it might be original names of bands.
19:22Seymour was blah.
19:23Yes.
19:24Oh!
19:25Smile?
19:26That sounds like a good...
19:27Feedbacks are sort of that sort of thing.
19:28Feedback sounds like a...
19:29Oh!
19:30Perfect.
19:31Okay.
19:32Shall we cycle through some of the Simpsons ones?
19:34Yeah, do you want to cycle through Simpsons?
19:35Yeah.
19:36Lav, Wood, Off could be a word one.
19:37Oh yeah, okay.
19:39So yeah.
19:40The Lav.
19:41The Lav.
19:42The Lav.
19:43Love.
19:44The Krasmer.
19:45The Krasmer.
19:46Um.
19:47Ned could also be a word one.
19:49A Whistler.
19:50What's Krasmer?
19:51I'm not sure.
19:52Let's leave that one for last.
19:53Whistler.
19:54Is there any character called the Whistler?
19:56What do Whistlers do?
19:57Um.
19:58Wood.
19:59Steve Wood.
20:00Um.
20:01Sorry, Steve.
20:02Um.
20:03You've got Pret-a-Mondre.
20:04That's all I could think of.
20:05Yeah.
20:06Lavender.
20:07Lavies.
20:08Interpret.
20:09Woodpecker.
20:10Steve.
20:11Ned.
20:12Where do you get Interpret from?
20:13Well, it ends with Pret, doesn't it?
20:15Oh!
20:16Yeah, sorry.
20:17Interpret.
20:18Inter-love.
20:19Inter-off.
20:20Into the woods.
20:21Into the woods.
20:22Um.
20:23Oh.
20:24Oh.
20:25Brilliant.
20:26Okay.
20:27So, Homer obviously is a writer.
20:28Yes.
20:29Barter.
20:30Laver.
20:31Barter.
20:32Offer.
20:33Barter.
20:34Okay.
20:35Offer barter.
20:36Lava.
20:37Laver.
20:38Is that a word?
20:39Laver.
20:40Yeah, yeah.
20:41Okay, if you think of a word then, I'm good.
20:42Um.
20:43Whistler.
20:44Whistler.
20:45Whistler.
20:46Whistle.
20:47Oh, anagrams.
20:48We haven't looked at anagrams.
20:49Yeah.
20:50Um.
20:51Um.
20:52There's no anagram of Homer.
20:53No.
20:54Pret.
20:55Is it first?
20:56That's ready.
20:57Yeah.
20:58Is it ready?
20:59Oh.
21:00Um.
21:01Should I just guess?
21:02Oh.
21:03Prep.
21:04Ten seconds.
21:05Wait.
21:06You've solved the wall.
21:07Amazing.
21:08So, tell me about the connections.
21:10Seymour, the Quarrymen and so on.
21:12These are original band names.
21:14That's right.
21:15Smile was the name for Queen.
21:17And feedback was you too.
21:18Okay.
21:19Lisa, Maggie, Ned and Krusty.
21:20Simpsons characters.
21:21They are characters from The Simpsons.
21:23And the next group, Bart, Lav and so on.
21:26You can add ER.
21:27Amazing.
21:28I heard you talking about that.
21:29I'm afraid not.
21:30I mean, yeah, yeah, it's Rod Laver, the tennis player, I suppose,
21:32but preeter, not a word.
21:34It's ender, bartender, lavender, pretender, offender.
21:39Oh.
21:40And the last group, Homer, Whistler and so on.
21:43Odysseys, maybe.
21:44Yeah.
21:45Or they're bald.
21:46Bald?
21:47Yeah, well, they might all be bald now.
21:50They are artists, American artists.
21:53You know Whistler's mother?
21:54No, James McNeil Whistler, the artist.
21:56But you solved the wall and gave me two connections.
21:59That's a total of six points.
22:01Let's bring in their opponents now,
22:03give them the other wall and see how they fare.
22:05It's the War to Wall for you 5Ks,
22:07two and a half minutes, starting now.
22:13Gosh, well, we've got friends from friends,
22:15but that way.
22:16How many?
22:17I can only see four.
22:18Ross, Joey, Phoebe, Gülpser, Monica, Chandler.
22:20Oh, yeah, Monica.
22:21Well, there's only the five, I think.
22:23OK.
22:24We'll just try them.
22:25And Gülpser as well.
22:27He's from friends, isn't he?
22:28Oh, yeah, but he's not a main friend.
22:30Why is it written like that?
22:33Is that a film or an Apollo or a...?
22:36Lots and Janice, they're like god-y things.
22:39Lot was the geezer in the label.
22:41He turned into salt.
22:42No, his wife did.
22:43Oh, yeah.
22:44Way.
22:45I feel like Janice was some sort of god.
22:47Monica is a heather.
22:48Phoebe's a plant.
22:49Oh, yeah, it is.
22:51Yeah, maybe try leaving out Phoebe.
22:54Erm, what else have we got?
22:56Joey's obviously a baby kangaroo.
22:59Yeah.
23:00Oh, do we...?
23:01Three as a bird.
23:02Yeah, do we have babies?
23:03I don't think so.
23:04What's a binger?
23:05Er...
23:06OK.
23:07Very good, OK.
23:08Erm...
23:09So, let's try and cycle...
23:11Sorry, let's try and cycle through.
23:14Left out, Gülpser.
23:17Is there also...
23:18There's not a mic in...
23:20I don't think so.
23:21Oh, there is Paul Rudd.
23:23Erm...
23:24Phoebe's boyfriend.
23:25I like it.
23:26I think there's too many friends.
23:27Er...
23:28So, what's Eleven?
23:29Apollo 11.
23:30What else could Eleven be?
23:31Away.
23:32Away.
23:33Away the anchor.
23:34Just cycle through the friends.
23:36What about Chandler?
23:37Gun.
23:38Starts with can, starts with gun, starts with ore.
23:41Chandler is a candle maker.
23:44Yeah.
23:45Er...
23:46Mike is obviously a phonetic alphabet.
23:48Yeah, we don't have any of them, I don't think.
23:50Now I can show up the microphone, we've got hidden words.
23:53OK.
23:54Right.
23:55Binger.
23:56Binger.
23:57Away.
23:58Blot.
23:59Binger, maybe.
24:00Candidate.
24:01Away.
24:02Er...
24:03I feel like you've got a few, you can maybe take a lot off.
24:05I don't know.
24:06What's Monica?
24:07Harmonica.
24:08Harmonica, Harbinger, Harlot.
24:09Harvest.
24:10Harvest.
24:11So then, we've got away, share away.
24:13I don't know.
24:14Candidate.
24:15OK.
24:16I'll make something up, I think.
24:18Candidate.
24:19Share away.
24:20I think you've got to pass it, James.
24:21Yeah.
24:22You've solved the war.
24:24But what about the connections?
24:25Tell me about the first group, Phoebe and so on.
24:28Some of these, sort of like, I guess, more minor gods and goddesses.
24:33Oh, are they moons of a particular planet?
24:36They are all moons of Saturn.
24:38Also, actually, deities and goddesses that they take their names from.
24:42And the next group, Ross, Chandler and so on.
24:45So, these are characters in Friends.
24:48They are the characters in Friends.
24:50Yes, of course, Mike, Paul, Rudd.
24:52Lovely.
24:53Who could forget him?
24:54And the next group, Monica and so on.
24:56You can put H-A-R in front of them to give you a word.
24:59Well spotted.
25:00Harmonica, Harbinger and so on.
25:02And the last group, Joey, 1-1 or whatever that is.
25:06We'll try, sort of, Stephen King, sort of, the last words or numbers, indeed.
25:12Unlucky.
25:13It's that universe.
25:14They're the last words in films of Frank Sinatra.
25:17Oh, come on.
25:18Joey, Ocean's Eleven, Anchors Away and The Manchurian Candidate.
25:22But you solved the war.
25:23You gave me three connections.
25:24That's a total of seven points.
25:26Let's have a look at the overall scores.
25:29Oh, no, they didn't have 12 points.
25:31The 5Ks have 16 points.
25:35Right.
25:36Time to play the missing vowels round.
25:38Good luck, teams.
25:39Fingers on buzzers.
25:40The first group of disguised clues are all two ways of saying the same time.
25:475Ks?
25:48Midday and noon.
25:49Yes, it is.
25:50Oh, no, they didn't.
25:51Dawn and daybreak.
25:52Yes, it is.
25:53Oh, no, they didn't.
25:54Dawn and daybreak.
25:55Yes, it is.
25:56Oh, no, they didn't.
25:5710.15 and quarter past ten.
25:58Well done.
25:595Ks?
26:006pm and 1800 hours.
26:01Well done.
26:02Next category.
26:03Writers merged with sports people.
26:045Ks?
26:05C.S. Lewis Hamilton.
26:06Yes, it is.
26:085Ks?
26:095Ks?
26:106pm and 1800 hours.
26:13Well done.
26:14Next category.
26:15Writers merged with sports people.
26:205Ks?
26:21C.S. Lewis Hamilton.
26:23Yes, it is.
26:285Ks?
26:29Emile Zola Budd.
26:30Yes, it is.
26:38I'll give you this tricky one.
26:40Ralph Waldo Emerson Fittipaldi.
26:42Next clue.
26:455Ks?
26:46Henry James Anderson.
26:48Correct.
26:49Next category.
26:50Unenticing Antarctic Islands.
26:55Oh, no, they didn't.
26:56Deception Island.
26:57Correct.
26:585Ks?
27:02Desolation Island.
27:03Yes, it is.
27:075Ks?
27:08Inaccessible Island.
27:09Yes, it is.
27:15No time to tell me that was dismal Ireland because the bell has gone for the end of the quiz.
27:21And the winners with 23 points and through to the semi-finals are the 5Ks.
27:27Very, very well done.
27:30Oh, no, they didn't.
27:31You finished with 15 points.
27:32You are free to leave Desolation Island at last.
27:35Yes.
27:36But what a brilliant team you've been.
27:38You know, some great answers.
27:39Really fun.
27:40I'm really sorry to say goodbye to you.
27:42We've heard a lot about hell in this episode for one reason or another.
27:46And nobody says it better than our old friend John Milton.
27:50So let's return to him.
27:51And I think we were at this bit.
27:54Speaking of hell.
27:56There the companions of his fall,
27:58O'erwhelmed with floods and whirlwinds of tempestuous fire,
28:02He soon discerns,
28:03And weltering by his side,
28:05One next himself in power,
28:07And next in crime.
28:09And who are those companions of Lucifer?
28:13Find out next week.
28:14Goodbye.
28:39Goodbye.
28:40Goodbye.
