1
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:07,399
Everything around us is shaped
by metals. Everything.
2
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:12,079
It's that step-by-step understanding
of the internal structure of metals,
3
00:00:12,120 --> 00:00:14,119
the secret world
of the metal crystal,
4
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:16,639
that's been a huge
intellectual achievement.
5
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:20,079
Metals have driven
civilisation forward.
6
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,759
And, in doing so, they've defined
who we are as humans.
7
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,959
And that's something
we should be VERY proud of.
8
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,919
Subtitles by Red Bee Media Ltd
9
00:02:38,640 --> 00:02:40,439
Hello and welcome to Only Connect,
10
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,799
the quiz so tough it's like
gladiators for the brain.
11
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,159
By which I mean proper Roman
gladiators, where contenders fight
12
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,319
to the death against a lion.
13
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:50,679
Grrrr!
14
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:51,999
That's just an analogy.
15
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,599
Our contestants won't literally
be fighting wild beasts
16
00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:56,359
or haring around in chariots,
17
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,359
because BBC Four rejected my
brilliant idea for a format change.
18
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,519
So, sitting in the same old
boring chairs, on my right,
19
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,879
Saul Jones,
an opera fan from London who studied
20
00:03:07,920 --> 00:03:11,519
English at Mansfield College, Oxford
and likes Turkish cuisine.
21
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,319
Emma-Louisa Mutter,
22
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,279
a former archaeologist
who plays the cello
23
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,199
and sings in a four-part
a cappella group.
24
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,359
And their captain, Chris Sowton,
a part-time charity worker
25
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,159
and reluctant gardener, whose first
book on academic writing
26
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,759
for foreign students
was published this year.
27
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,759
They all teach English As A Foreign
Language at King's College London.
28
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,519
They are the TEFL Teachers.
29
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,079
So, Chris, what sort of revision
have you been doing?
30
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,839
We've obviously been playing
the excellent Wall Online.
31
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,079
We've been asking each other
random questions
32
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,759
and we've been sending each other
vowel-less e-mails all week.
33
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,359
Excellent. Your opponents.
34
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,399
On my left, James Kemp, a software
developer who keeps chickens
35
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,919
and can solve a Rubik's Cube
in 27 seconds.
36
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,959
Sally Wilson.
37
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,279
A music graduate who works
as an IT project manager.
38
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,279
And can play the saxophone,
violin, viola, clarinet,
piano and percussion.
39
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,839
And their captain, Lynne Ashcroft,
a test analyst with
40
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:08,759
a degree in English, who owns 10,000
books and was once chased by a bear.
41
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:13,199
They are all professional computer
experts. They're the IT Specialists.
42
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,599
Lynne, the obvious question,
what brings your team here?
43
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,439
We've always loved the show.
44
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,079
We've tried very hard to get on it
45
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,319
and we've made it,
so everything now is a bonus.
46
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,119
Well, there are bonuses available,
also your own points.
47
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,079
Good luck, I hope you get them.
Thank you very much.
48
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,239
Let's kick off, then,
with Round One.
49
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:33,599
I simply want to know what is
the connection between four
50
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:34,999
apparently random clues.
51
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,799
The fewer clues you see before
giving me the correct answer,
52
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:39,239
the more points you can get.
53
00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:41,879
The TEFL Teachers won the toss
54
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,479
but they've elected to put
the IT Specialists in first.
55
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,799
So, Lynne, I'd like your team to
choose an Egyptian hieroglyph.
56
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:50,719
Can we have the Twisted Flax, please?
57
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,599
You certainly may. What is the
connection between these clues?
58
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,959
Here's the first.
59
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,799
Sue Tilley.
She's in...an actor, in EastEnders.
60
00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:04,959
EastEnders, yeah. Shall we get
the next one? Next, please.
61
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:07,959
No, it isn't, that's Susan Tully.
62
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,799
Dentist, Byron McKeeby, Nan Wood.
Haven't a clue about that.
63
00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:13,479
No, next one. Next, please.
64
00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:17,439
Lisa Gherardini, that's...
She was a mistress.
65
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,159
She was somebody's mistress.
66
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,159
Dentist's mistresses? I could have
got this completely wrong. Yeah?
67
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:24,879
We'd better go next.
Next, please.
68
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:25,959
Ten seconds.
69
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,999
Oh, no, she was Whistler's mother!
They're mothers? Famous mothers.
70
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,679
No, no, no,
subjects of famous paintings.
71
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:32,679
BELL
72
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,879
They're all subjects
of famous paintings.
73
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,919
They are models for famous
paintings. Quite right.
74
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,799
Can you tell me the paintings?
Mona Lisa. Mona Lisa.
75
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:42,279
That's Lisa Gherardini.
76
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,599
She's not a mistress at all,
I don't think she is!
77
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,199
The third clue. No, she was the wife
of a Florentine merchant.
78
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,359
The Mona Lisa. And that's Whistler's
mother. That's Whistler's mother.
79
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:51,839
Yeah. And...
80
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,839
A dentist and his sister were models
for Grant Wood's American Gothic.
81
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,839
What about Sue Tilley?
What's that painting?
82
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,959
Is it something by Hockney
or something like that?
83
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,239
Sue Tilley is the model for Freud's
Benefits Supervisor Sleeping.
84
00:06:06,280 --> 00:06:08,999
Very well done, you got one point.
85
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,679
Over to the TEFL Teachers
to choose a question.
86
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,079
Two Reeds, please. Two reeds.
87
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,999
What is the connection here?
Time starts now.
88
00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:21,079
Is it computer games?
It is a computer game. Next.
89
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,119
MI5? Could be Israel.
90
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,399
Don't know what that is. Next.
91
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,439
In the films it's like something,
the imagery in films...
92
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,239
I haven't a clue. I don't know
what it is. Oh, God, yes.
93
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:41,839
I've got no idea. Next.
94
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,159
Is it, the Calais Coach...
95
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,519
It sounds like...
96
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,799
Ten seconds. An Agatha Christie.
Something detective.
97
00:06:50,840 --> 00:06:52,279
I don't know. I don't know.
98
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:53,279
BELL
99
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:58,199
They're all detective films.
100
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:03,079
They are not all detective films,
I'm afraid.
101
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,319
I can't give you that, so there's a
bonus chance for the IT Specialists.
102
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:12,159
We think they're alternative American
names for films known by other
103
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,639
names in England, in the UK.
104
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:15,679
I'll take it.
105
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,719
Murder In The Calais Coach,
for Murder On The Orient Express.
106
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,479
I mean, it's actually a book
but of course it's also a film.
107
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:25,079
Clue, the name for Cluedo which is
a board game, also a film, in fact.
108
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,239
MI-5 is a TV programme - Spooks.
109
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,519
Desert Attack, that one was the
film known as what in English?
110
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,359
Ice Cold In Alex. American names
for British creations.
111
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,559
That is it.
So, well done for the bonus.
112
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,679
You may now choose
your own question.
113
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,919
Could we have Lion, please?
I don't see why not.
114
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,519
What is the connection here?
First clue coming up now.
115
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,759
New boy at Repton? I don't know.
Should get next clue. Next, please.
116
00:07:55,560 --> 00:08:01,799
Oh, it's, erm...thingy out
of Monty Python. Eric Idle?
117
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,959
Shall we go for next?
118
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,199
Next, please.
119
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:07,839
He was called Stig.
120
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,679
They were called Stig. Yeah.
121
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:10,679
BELL
122
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,199
They're all called Stig.
123
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,119
They ARE all called Stig.
124
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,039
You didn't need to see the last clue
which suggested Stig Of The Dump.
125
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,519
What can you tell me
about the first three clues?
126
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,119
Well, I know The Rutles' lead
guitarist was nicknamed Stig,
127
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,199
wasn't he?
128
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:24,719
That was the name of the character.
129
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,239
Yeah, and ABBA's manager was Stig.
130
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:27,959
Can't remember his surname.
131
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,559
Have a guess.
132
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,159
Stig Larsson or something?
No, no, not Stig Larsson.
133
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,719
You're close. Anderson.
Pretty much everyone Swedish,
134
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,239
if they're not called Larsson,
they're called Anderson.
135
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,119
I hope that's not offensive to
Swedish viewers. I mean it lovingly.
136
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,559
And what about the first one?
137
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,879
New boy at Repton? The Stig.
138
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,319
Obviously a new boy at Repton
is nicknamed Stig.
139
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,239
Why would I have thought
you might know that?
140
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:55,839
They named The Stig on the TV show
Top Gear after the name
141
00:08:55,880 --> 00:09:00,039
of a new boy at Repton because that
was where Jeremy Clarkson went.
142
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,799
Perfect. Jeremy Clarkson
went to school
143
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,599
there and they named the driver
144
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,839
after the new boy slang,
Repton Stig.
145
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:06,919
Very well done.
146
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,999
TEFL Teachers, it's your turn.
147
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,039
Water, please. OK.
148
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:12,759
It's the music question.
149
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,199
What is the connection between
these pieces of music?
150
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,439
First one coming in now.
151
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,559
MILITARY ANTHEM PLAYS
152
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,839
Queen of Sheba, isn't it?
153
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:25,839
Next.
154
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,879
# Well you don't know me... #
155
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:32,559
I don't know what this is. You know?
156
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,479
Don't know what it is. No idea.
Next.
157
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:44,399
Carmina Burana by Orff.
Orff. Could be, I don't know.
158
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,639
Do you want to go for the next one?
Next.
159
00:09:46,680 --> 00:09:47,839
OPERATIC SINGING
160
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,279
Ten seconds.
161
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,439
What's that, then? Um, that's Tosca.
162
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:56,839
Three seconds.
BELL
163
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,199
Er, slaves.
164
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,959
Ooh, no,
slaves is not the connection,
165
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,399
so there's another bonus chance
for the IT Specialists.
166
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,279
Got O in the title? They've got O
in the title. Yeah, they've got O.
167
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,359
They all start with O,
can you tell me what we heard?
168
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,719
Don't know the first one.
But the second one is...
169
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,519
BOTH: O Superman.
