Only Connect Season 21 Episode 27
Transcript
00:00MUSIC
00:22To be or not to be, that is the question, said Hamlet,
00:26host of the first ever episode of Only Connect.
00:29Sadly, the contestant went for 2B when the answer was 2C.
00:34But it's not all about winning and that is something we celebrate
00:37here at the legendary Only Connect third-place play-offs.
00:41I'm joined by two teams who have played with grace and merriment
00:44throughout the series and that is all that matters.
00:47But tonight they do have a chance to finish an official and glorious third.
00:53And they are, on my right, Matt Rowland,
00:58a maths teacher who built an igloo in his garden.
01:01Dimitri Samarasinger, a commercial planner who went on a shopping spree
01:05with Belinda Carlyle.
01:07And their captain, Damien Evans, a retail space planner
01:11who supports the Cincinnati Bengals
01:13in appreciation of their tiger-striped helmets.
01:16Always ready for railways, they are the Metrophiles.
01:20Many, many congratulations, Metrophiles, for reaching this glorious phase
01:25of the competition.
01:27Looking back, what's been your highlight of the series?
01:31I don't know, I think the whole experience...
01:33I know that sounds an obvious thing to say, but the whole experience...
01:36I don't know, I think we've enjoyed the...
01:38It's been a great time in Cardiff.
01:40And you've come all the way from St David's.
01:41Well, I live in London now, but I'm from St David's.
01:44Why would you reveal that at this point where I can still
01:48throw points your way or not?
01:50Sorry. What an error.
01:52Nevertheless, well done, you're all great.
01:54I'm delighted to see you here.
01:56You are up against, on my left,
01:59Kath Foster, a counsellor who has knitted a mermaid tail blanket.
02:04Peter Flynn, a biology teacher who skydived over the Namibian desert.
02:09And their captain, Charlotte Jackson-Orland, a French and Spanish teacher
02:13who enjoys eating baked beans straight from the tin.
02:16Hoping for a wonder wall, they are the worker bees.
02:19Charlotte, I make that little joke because, of course,
02:22you all met in Manchester and the worker bee is the symbol.
02:25But would you say you're hard-working?
02:28I don't work hard, but I make these two work hard.
02:31And what would you say has been the hardest work
02:34of playing Only Connect?
02:36Try not to have too much for nothing.
02:38Spelling the word bird.
02:40Spelling the word bird.
02:42Happy memories.
02:43Indeed.
02:44Well, congratulations, you two, for getting here
02:46and you won the toss.
02:48So, please choose an Egyptian hieroglyph.
02:50Could we have the water, please?
02:52Yes, you could.
02:54What connects these picture clues?
02:56Here's the first.
02:58That is a rock, isn't it?
03:00It's not as rock, is it?
03:01No, no.
03:02So, try it.
03:04Next, please.
03:06Does that look like a camel?
03:08Are they going to be, like, named after animals?
03:10No, it's going to be like an elephant or something.
03:12It's just, yeah.
03:14Rock formations named after animals.
03:18Very well done.
03:20You see, that absolutely does not look like a camel to me.
03:24It does.
03:25Like, where is the hump?
03:26The little head up here and then the neck.
03:28Yeah.
03:29Like that.
03:30Let's bring up all the clues.
03:31Talk me through them, please.
03:33I think those last two look even less like animals.
03:36Yeah.
03:37Well, you see, I think number three, monkey face in Oregon,
03:40looks a lot more like a camel than clue two.
03:42Maybe, yeah.
03:43Is the first one an elephant?
03:44Well, apparently, Saudi Arabia, elephant rock.
03:47Yeah.
03:48And the fourth one is, of course, the famous rhino rock in Iceland.
03:53Sure.
03:54But somehow you got three points.
03:56Very well done.
03:57Metrophiles, what would you like?
03:59Can we have the Eye of Horus, please?
04:00Yes, you can.
04:01What connects these clues?
04:02Here's the first.
04:05OK.
04:06Performs a hymn.
04:07Yeah.
04:08Is that in a film?
04:09Someone who does it in a film?
04:10Someone's fine.
04:11Next, please.
04:14Groundhog Day.
04:15Groundhog Day, yeah.
04:16Things happen in...
04:17Yeah, things he does Groundhog Day.
04:18Bill Murray does.
04:19Are these things that Bill Murray's character does in...
04:24Repeatedly does in Groundhog Day?
04:26Brilliant.
04:27Three points to you too.
04:28So just explain a little bit for anybody that hasn't seen Groundhog Day.
04:31I think a lot of these things he does only the once maybe or twice to impress Andy McDowell
04:36and sometimes he just always goes, turns up to change a flak tyre, I think, and...
04:40Carving the ice sculpture it is to impress Andy McDowell.
04:43I think the changing of the tyre, it's as he becomes a bit nicer
04:46and he knows that these ladies are always going to be stuck without the tyre.
04:49He's sort of there, ready to help.
04:50And how many Oscar nominations did it get?
04:52Zero.
04:53There was none.
04:54One of the greatest films ever made.
04:56And that's because of the bias against comedy.
04:59What would you like, Worker Bees?
05:01Lion, please.
05:02Lion.
05:03What connects these clues?
05:04Here's the first.
05:06John Finucco.
05:07I don't know who that is, but I don't know who that's either.
05:10I'm not sure.
05:11Next, please.
05:12She's smart.
05:13Smart.
05:14Smart.
05:15Smart.
05:16Smart.
05:17Smart.
05:18Smart.
05:19Smart, Alex.
05:20Okay.
05:21Next, please.
05:22They all sound like, kind of, names for, like...
05:25You?
05:26You?
05:27No, no, no.
05:28Next, please.
05:30Oh, who?
05:31Is it...
05:32Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:34Yeah, yeah.
05:35Yeah.

05:39They are the full names of nicknames for people.
05:44So, Billy No-Mates, William Friendless...
05:47Flash Harry.
05:49That's exactly what it is.
05:50So, going backwards through the clues,
05:52Billy No-Mates, Flash Harry...
05:53Clever Dick.
05:54What about the other two?
05:55Clever Dick, yeah.
05:56Clever Dick with Richard Smart and...
05:58Johnny Come Lately.
05:59Johnny Come Lately for John Newcombe.
06:01Well done.
06:02Metrophiles, what's next?
06:04Can we have two reads, please?
06:05Yes, you can.
06:06What connects these clues?
06:08Here's the first.
06:09I mean, that could be a number of things.
06:13Yeah.
06:14OK.
06:15I'll hear the Jarvan.
06:16People writing those, Jarvan.
06:17I can't sit down.

06:23And, er, Blind Assassin.
06:25Blind Assassin.

06:27The Blind Assassin and the Testaments.
06:28Testaments.
06:29Testaments.
06:30Erm...
06:31Er, next, please.

06:38Well, there is one official language in Indonesia, and there is one official language in Indonesia.
06:41Let's see if your opponents can.
06:56We also have nothing.

07:53Cusk inspector

07:57I don't know that's um...
08:02Two seconds
08:04BUZZER
08:06Makes of cars
08:08They are not makes of cars
08:10Metrophiles do you know?
08:11Are these things that have almost caused nuclear war or...?
08:15They are nuclear false alarms
08:17Which of them do you know about?
08:19Not any of them really but they felt like...
08:21Clue three is the big one that's during the Cuban Missile Crisis
08:24This great fellow Vasily Arkhipov who you know was on this submarine
08:28and they hadn't been contacted and they
08:30their understanding was if they weren't contacted for long enough it meant
08:34something had gone wrong and they should trigger the nuclear launch and
08:37the other two people in charge said they should and he absolutely opposed it
08:41The first clue Stanislav Petrov and that was just you know somebody
08:45misread something and said you know that's war and various times when people have thought
08:50there should be a nuclear launch
08:52your question now the twisted flax what connects these musical clues here's the first
08:59You get to feed things that's what you choose
09:02That's here
09:03That's right
09:04That's right
09:05That's right
09:06Well done
09:07Oh, excuse me
09:08Take my hand
09:09Next please
09:10Gravity
09:11You're still working against me

09:17Can't look at him
09:18Er, next please
09:20It's Harry Styles
09:22All right
09:24Harry Styles
09:26Harry Styles
09:27Oh
09:28All right
09:29Harry Styles
09:30There you go
09:31Next please
09:32He's got half for guns
09:35I'm sorry
09:36Two seconds
09:37Two seconds
09:39.
09:40Is this for ex-boy bands?
09:41Um...
09:42Are these all...
09:43Hits by ex-boy band members?
09:45Not it I'm afraid
09:46Worker bees do you know?
09:48They all refer to like the status quo
09:49the status quo? They do not. They're all hits by x-something.
09:55Is it ex-Taylor Swift boyfriends? It's boyfriends of Taylor Swift.
09:58We heard Kelvin Harris, John Mayer, Harry Styles and Mattie Healey,
10:02all people who have had the honour of dating Taylor Swift.
10:06That means at the end of round one, the worker bees have four points,
10:09the metrophiles have four points.
10:14On to round two, worker bees, you'll be starting again.
10:17What would you like?
10:17Could we have the Horned Viper, please?
10:20Yes, you could. What would come fourth in this sequence?
10:23Here's the first.
10:27I'm not going to risk it.
10:28Yeah, let's go next.
10:29Next, please.
10:35ABC, baby, you and me.
10:40Shall we get the next one, just to...
10:43No. Next, please.
10:44Yeah, I think I'm doing right.
10:47Baby, you and me.
10:48Yeah.
10:51Baby, you and me.
10:53Not the answer, I'm sorry to say.
10:56Metrophiles, do you know?
10:57Is it ABC again?
10:58It's ABC again.
11:00And what's happening here?
11:01It's a Jackson 5, ABC, because I think it goes from Doremi into ABC again, doesn't it?
11:08It is the song ABC by the Jackson 5.
11:11Let me ask you this, worker bees.
11:13How many of the people who sang that song were married to Alejandra Waziaza?
11:18Two.
11:19Two.
11:19Was it two?
11:20No, because Randy Jackson was not in the band when they recorded that, so only Jermaine.
11:27Unlucky.
11:29Metrophiles, what would you like for your own question?
11:31Can we have water, please?
11:32Yes, you can.
11:33What would come forth in this sequence?
11:34Here's the first.
11:38That could be a lot of things for a minute.
11:41Straight away.
11:44Yeah.
11:44Next, please.
11:47Oh, I'm coming down to Ontario.
11:51Too many can it.
11:52Is that on the flags?
11:53Oh, it's on the flags.
11:55I think they're on the flags.
11:56On the state flags.
11:59Next, please.
11:59Oh, no, it's not.
12:01It's a signal support, please.
12:02No, it's not.
12:03It's not that, anyway.
12:03So, I reckon it could be something to the flags.
12:06No, it's too many.
12:07Some way.
12:08Not two men, some way.
12:11Two seconds.
12:14We'll go with them first.
12:15Two men in Germany.
12:19Not it, I'm afraid.
12:20Worker bees, do you know?
12:21Two men in the United Kingdom?
12:25Sadly, no.
12:26The answer is two men in the Netherlands.
12:29This is about the legalisation of same-sex marriage.
12:34The first country to legalise same-sex marriage was the Netherlands.
12:37Next country, because, of course, sequence goes backwards, was Belgium.
12:40And in the other clues we're specifying,
12:42but it was in the regions of Massachusetts and Ontario
12:45that same-sex marriage was legalised,
12:47but not all over the USA and Canada.
12:50Worker bees, what's next?
12:52Eye of Horus, please.
12:53Eye of Horus.
12:54What will come forth in this sequence?
12:56Here's the first.
12:59That's Richard.
12:59Richard.
13:00OK.
13:01Yeah?
13:01Just a trick of that.
13:02Yeah.
13:03Next, please.
13:05Payne.
13:09What were you going to say?
13:11Is it like rainbows?
13:12Richard of York gave battle in vain, isn't it?
13:13Richard of York gave battle in vain.
13:15Should we get the next one?
13:16Yeah.
13:17Next, please.
13:19Yeah, in vain.
13:20Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:21Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:21Yeah.
13:22Erm...
13:23Yeah, yeah.
13:23Yeah.
13:24Yeah.
13:25Yeah.
13:25Yeah.
13:26Yeah.
13:27Without success, some kind of synonym of in vain.
13:31Without success is perfect.
13:33And why?
13:34It's another re-wording of, like, Richard of York gave battle in vain.
13:40Exactly so.
13:40Richard of York, there's a clue here for King Richard III,
13:43who was defeated by Henry Tudor, gave battle in vain.
13:47And rather than the boring old word synonymous,
13:50I like another re-wording of that.
13:53Very nicely put.
13:55Back to you, Metrophiles, for a choice.
13:56May we have a lion, please?
13:58Yes, you may.
13:59What will come forth in this sequence?
14:00Here's the first.
14:05OK.
14:06One, two, two.
14:08She was on the thing with Paris Hilton.
14:12Next, please.
14:16No, sorry.
14:17Elizabeth.
14:19So Nicole, Elizabeth.
14:20Is it going to be some...
14:22Is it north-east, south-west, but...
14:25But I don't know what that...
14:27You should get another.
14:29Yeah, yeah.
14:29Yeah?
14:30Next, please.
14:33Oh, it's Nepo.
14:34Nepo.
14:34Nepo.
14:35Nepo.
14:36So, a famous song.
14:38Two seconds.
14:43A famous Nepo baby whose first name begins with O, um, Oliver.
14:48I'll put you out of your misery.
14:51That is good enough for me.
14:53We've gone with O Jackson, O'Shea Jackson, son of Ice Cube.
14:57But what's happening?
14:59It's spelling out the words Nepo, uh, with people who probably like examples of that with
15:04the first, their first name begins with one letter.
15:06It's the modern phrase Nepo baby.
15:07So, it's people that followed their parents into certain industries.
15:11I mean, the only real Nepo baby, I would say Elizabeth Windsor.
15:13I mean, I bow to no one in my love for her late majesty, but she definitely only got the job
15:18because of who her father was.
15:19It's the kind of very silly question we probably wouldn't have in a normal episode,
15:23but there is a sillier one coming up somewhere in this round.
15:27So, brace yourselves.
15:29Worker bees, what would you like?
15:30I can't remember whose turn it was to choose.
15:32Sorry.
15:33Two reeds, please.
15:35Two reeds.
15:37Right, it's not this one.
15:40These are picture clues.
15:41Please describe what you'd expect to see in the fourth picture.
15:44Here's the first.
15:54Next, please.
15:55What, LL's not a number, is it?
15:59Is it L50?
16:02Let's go next.
16:03Next, please.
16:05It's like that kind of, like, shirtless thing.
16:07It feels like...
16:09Is it like a Zimbati thing going on?
16:11It's just like a LLS.
16:13It's going to be four letters, isn't it?
16:15It's going to be four letters, isn't it?
16:16Oh, is it like...
16:18Two seconds.
16:22The same picture as the third clue,
16:24with four Xs across the bottom?
16:28Unfortunately not.
16:30Metrophiles, do you know?
16:31Is it the same image, but with four Fs at the bottom?
16:37No.
16:37It is the same picture with four Es at the bottom.
16:42So you're all seeing it's a pyramid.
16:45And we're looking for a word that has one V, two Ls, three Ss and four Es,
16:49and the word is Sleeveless.
16:54You started strongly with V for V-neck and then veered away.
16:57And that's not the sillier question.
16:59No, it's not.
17:01It's silly to come.
17:02Enjoy yourselves, Metrophiles.
17:03One question remains.
17:05It's the Twisted Flax.
17:07What would come forth in this sequence?
17:09OK.
17:09Here's the first.
17:13Do you know if that's from anything?
17:14No.
17:15OK, but we know it's going to be silly, so let's...
17:17OK, next, please.
17:22And is it, like, an anagram of that?
17:26K-spam, uh, there.
17:29But they're coming up in rank as well.
17:31Yeah.
17:31OK, take it on.
17:32Fourth rank.
17:33Take it on one space.
17:34Go ahead and watch it.
17:35Next, please.
17:38That's Howling Mad Murdoch.
17:39It's the A-team.
17:41It's going to be Colonel, and they've changed it.
17:43Letters.
17:44Case man, and they've...
17:45They've changed.
17:46So, it's because you don't miss the T.
17:49Two seconds.
17:51Is it going to be, like, Colonel, and then cannibal for myth?
17:56That'll do.
17:58We've got cannibal myth.
17:59Don't go scratching your heads for what the logic is.
18:02The logic is this.
18:04It is, as you correctly identify, characters in the A-team by rank,
18:08Sergeant, Lieutenant, Captain, and Colonel.
18:10And apparently, according to our question editors, these rhyme.
18:15B.A. Barakas, face man, howling mad Murdoch.
18:19We just want something that rhymes with Hannibal Smith.
18:21We work with cannibal myth, but cannibal b-myth rhymes as well.
18:25So, that'll do.
18:28That means, at the end of round two, the worker bees have six points,
18:32the metrophiles have nine.
18:37Time now for the connecting walls.
18:38And looking at them, I would say, fun's over.
18:40You'll be going first, metrophiles.
18:43Would you like lion or water?
18:45The lion, please.
18:46Lion. Two and a half minutes to solve it.
18:48Starting now.
18:50Okay.
18:52Okay.
18:52So, Liam, I mean, yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:58Gold is that way too many.
18:59Uh, Polk was a, uh, president of the USA.
19:02Yeah, yeah.
19:03James Polk.
19:04There's no other.
19:05Uh, weather balloon, helium balloon, uh, lead balloon.
19:09Well done.
19:10Uh, part-dealing.
19:12Helium balloon particle.
19:14Well done.
19:15Yeah, Traveller.
19:16Traveller.
19:16Tellurium.
19:17I'm just going to keep doing something as well.
19:21Yeah, keep doing that.
19:21Uh, Monday.
19:23Happy Mondays.
19:25I do believe Mondays.
19:27Uh.
19:28Darth, what's that?
19:31I'll just say gold as well.
19:33Dart at the start of Darth.
19:35Could that be anything?
19:36Dart, bowl, at the start of bowline.
19:39Uh.
19:41Tell.
19:43Yeah, I'll keep going.
19:44I'll add gold.
19:45Yeah.
19:46What does none of them mean?
19:47Colour.
19:48Colour TV.
19:49Ah.
19:50Ah.
19:51Ah.
19:52Ah.
19:53Colour prints and polka is music.
19:55Oh, I don't know, yeah.
19:57You can take out the I in aluminium.
19:59Aluminum.
20:00Oh, different spellings in America, maybe?
20:02Colour.
20:03Colour, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
20:04Colour, aluminum.
20:05Traveller.
20:05Traveller, yeah.
20:06One L.
20:07And then, er, bowline?
20:09No, Darth.
20:10Darth.
20:11OK, I'll do those three and then just like the rest.
20:13There you go.
20:14OK, right, so what we've got, like, we've got some elements left and then Darth, Monday,
20:19bowline, and Polk.
20:21Shall I go for it?
20:23Hang on, let's...
20:24Well, I'm not sure if it's going to be right.
20:26Polk, bowline, erm, Polk.
20:29Well, you've got James Polk.
20:30Well, you've got James Polk.
20:31Darth Vader, Darth.
20:32You can bowl at the start of the barn, bowl, and dart at the start of the book.
20:37What about the changing of the letters for a musical?
20:40Do you want to do it?
20:42Do you want to do it?
20:43Do you want to do it?
20:44Yeah.
20:45I think we probably should do it.
20:46Oh, I love that.
20:48Erm, radio.
20:50Pluto.
20:51Bode.
20:52Hello.
20:53Tell.
20:54Dart.
20:56That's your three lives and the wall has frozen.
21:00Tell me about the groups you found.
21:02Helium, lead, and so on.
21:03Types of balloons.
21:05All balloons.
21:06And the next group, aluminium, caesium, and so on.
21:09These have alternative spellings in the US or they have a letter missing...
21:13They are all spelt incorrectly in America.
21:16And you can get points for the connections in the groups you didn't find.
21:19So let's resolve the wall.
21:21There we are.
21:22Gold, bowline, Polk, and Darth.
21:25Jameses.
21:27They are not Jameses.
21:29I feel like you know this, Dimitri.
21:31You have to change the last letter to get a sport.
21:34Golf, bowling, polo, and darts.
21:37And the last group, palladium, plutonium, tellurium, and Monday.
21:41Are these things that can be blue?
21:43No.
21:44No.
21:45Named after celestial bodies.
21:48Pallas, Pluto, Telus, an old Roman goddess of the earth.
21:53And Monday named after the moon.
21:55But you did find two groups and give me two connections.
21:58That is four points.
22:00Let's bring in their opponents.
22:01Give them the other wall.
22:02See what happens there.
22:03Water wall for you, worker bees.
22:05Two and a half minutes, of course, starting now.
22:09There's a lot of them.
22:10There are hundreds of them.
22:11Yeah.
22:12So you've also got nickel back, silver back.
22:13Oh, hello.
22:14I don't know, though, if there's any of those.
22:15Okay.
22:16It's come out of your phones.
22:17Right, I'll just try through some of these.
22:20Okay, Flash.
22:21Mm-。
22:22Hello, that was a photo booth.
22:23Yeah, there's other photos.
22:24Photo flash, maybe?
22:27Tin mouth.
22:28Photo testimony?
22:29Tin foil.
22:30Aluminium foil.
22:32I don't know if the ones are thumbs in it right off.
22:34Nice.
22:35Yeah.
22:36Not a little bit.
22:37I don't know if so, okay.
22:38Something off me before.
22:39Maybe there are six blocks, one likely stand up with me?
22:48I don't know if there's any of this.
22:50Kitchen foil. Kitchen foil.
22:52Silver foil. Cooking foil.
22:55Yes, there we go. Primary school, Sunday school.
22:58Oh, hello, here we go.
23:00Food school.
23:01Feed school, flash school.
23:03Have any of them got any of the words in them?
23:07Booth, it's got boo.
23:09Yeah, boot.
23:11Boo, boots.
23:13No.
23:14Nickel's got nick.
23:16There's got to be a metal one, surely.
23:18Yeah, right, I'll just keep going through those
23:20and you two just keep having...
23:22Primary school, Sunday school.
23:24Not even.
23:25That one's not metal, but it's just going to be...
23:27No, but it's an element, isn't it?
23:29About uranium, then, if you just do elements.
23:31What are the letters for them?
23:33The single-letter ones, like S.
23:36Ash, ash, ash, tree.
23:38Silver birch.
23:40Silver.
23:41Oh, my crikey.
23:43My goodness.
23:44Oh, my...
23:45Keep just hitting some buttons.
23:47Right, I will do.
23:48I'm going to keep...
23:49I'm going to...
23:50No other schools for them.
23:51There's light.
23:52Lido schools, nothing like that.
23:53Booth school.
23:54Booth.
23:55Booth.
23:56Photo be.
23:57Photo flash.
23:58Photo silver.
23:59Photo feed.
24:00Yeah, photo feed.
24:02Maybe it's something.
24:03Oh, no.
24:0410 seconds.
24:05Oh, no.
24:06Uh...
24:07Lido.
24:09That's it.
24:10Time's up and the wall has frozen.
24:14Oh, no.
24:15Oh, no.
24:16But you did find a group.
24:17Tell me what connects aluminium, tin and so on.
24:19They're all foil.
24:20They can all be followed by foil.
24:21And you can still get points for the connections in the groups you didn't find.
24:24So let's resolve the wall.
24:25Here we go.
24:26Argon.
24:27Booth.
24:28Primary.
24:29And Lido.
24:30I'm really not...
24:31They're not schools, are they?
24:32That's mad.
24:33You're not seeing it.
24:34No.
24:35No.
24:36You have to change a letter to get a high street shop.
24:38Argos.
24:39Boots.
24:40Primark and Lido.
24:41Urgh.
24:42And the next group.
24:43Cerium, Uranium, Selenium and Sundae.
24:45And the next group.
24:46Cerium, Uranium, Selenium and Sundae.
24:48And the next group.
24:49And the next group.
24:50Cerium, Uranium, Selenium and Sundae.
24:53No, this is a tricky one.
24:56They're named after celestial bodies.
25:00That is Ceres, Uranus, Selenium.
25:02Actually after the Moon and the Sun.
25:04And the last group.
25:05Nickel, Silver, Flash and Feed.
25:08Nickelback.
25:09Yes.
25:10Can be followed by Back.
25:11You've noticed them early.
25:12Nickelback, Silverback and it's just Flashback and Feedback.
25:15But you did find a group and give me two connections.
25:18So that's a total of three points.
25:20Let's have a look at the overall scores.
25:22The Worker Bees have nine points.
25:25The Metrophiles have 13.
25:28So everything to play for, by which I mean very, very little to play for,
25:33but let's play anyway, is the missing vowels round.
25:37Fingers on buzzers teams.
25:38The first group are all what you get for finishing third and where.
25:48Worker Bees.
25:49Bronze medal and the Olymp...
25:51Sorry, no, you must lose a point.
25:53Metrophiles, do you know?
25:54Bronze medal and the Summer Olympics.
25:56Bronze medal and the Summer Olympics.
25:58Next clue.
26:01Metrophiles.
26:02Bronze medal and the Winter Olympics.
26:04Yes, it is.
26:09Worker Bees.
26:10Champions League place and the Premier League.
26:13Correct.
26:17Worker Bees.
26:18Nothing.
26:19I'm afraid so.
26:20Next group.
26:21Famous people and the things they opened.
26:28Worker Bees.
26:29Queen Victoria and the Royal Albert Hall.
26:31Correct.
26:36Metrophiles.
26:37Tony Blair and the London Eye.
26:38Yes, he did.
26:43Worker Bees.
26:44Jane Mansfield and the Chiswick Flyover.
26:46Amazingly, yes.
26:51Worker Bees.
26:52Herbert Hoover and the Empire State Building.
26:54Correct.
26:55Next category.
26:56Two wrongs do make a right.
27:03Metrophiles.
27:04The price is wrong, wrong.
27:05Well done.
27:10Metrophiles.
27:11Wrong, wrong to reply.
27:12Yes, it is.
27:18No time to tell me the wrong, wrong to keep and bear arms.
27:22That is the end of the quiz.
27:24And looking at the final scores.
27:27The, I won't say winners, but the people who triumphantly finish
27:31third in this season of Only Connect with 18 points
27:35are the Metrophiles.
27:37Absolutely wonderful.
27:38Third, you just couldn't ask for more.
27:40Magnificent.
27:41Worker Bees with 13 points.
27:42Your fourth might as well be last.
27:44It's meaningless.
27:45There's no accolade there.
27:46But what I will say is you have all played so beautifully
27:50throughout the matches.
27:52You've been sporting and fun.
27:54You've enjoyed it.
27:55You've helped the viewers enjoy it.
27:56Very well done.
27:57But in Milton to finish, shall we?
28:00You know what's going on.
28:01Satan is telling a story about the epic battle
28:04and he's been da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
28:06Innumerable force of spirits armed that durst dislike his reign
28:10and me preferring his utmost power with adverse power opposed
28:15in dubious battle on the plains of heaven and shook his throne.
