Only Connect 4x16

hello and welcome to only connect tonight you'll notice I've come as Marilyn Monroe I'm in pink satin and I'm a size 14 and rattling with pills it's the nerves because this is the final the grand final the winners will walk away with a magnificent glass trophy the losers have to go on and meet the eggheads that's not to play a quiz they just have to meet them now I'm sure we're in for an elegant and dignified contest not an unseemly mess of scream threats and fists throwing entertaining though the rehearsal was so let's meet the teams vying for championship on my right the Epicureans David Brewis a schoolmaster from Durham who owns every edition of the Guinness Book of Records Erin Bell a politics philosophy and economics graduate from Beckenham in Kent and their captain Katie brown saner a GP with a BSc in the history of Medicine who wrote her dissertation on the history of sexual deviancy and who wouldn't Katie the Epicureans have beaten the courtiers the bridge players and the rights how have you celebrated those victories oh we celebrated each round by darling we've died in all the michelin-starred restaurants in Cardiff well let's see if it'll be another Michelin dinner your opponents or the radio addicts Dave clonk an English teacher and blogger who has a collection of over 50 radios Neal Phillips a music lover and huge radio enthusiast who listens to radio 5 every day and is learning to speak Italian and their captain Gary grant a wildlife lover with a passion for indie music who works as a local GP you have beaten the taxonomy the BRIT poppers and the ales Minh to win your place in the final radio addicts it was a pretty tight semi-final how are you feeling about tonight well we'll have to play an awful lot better than we did in the semi-final and Rowan's 1 and 2 we were like people who had the brains plumbed in the wrong way around so it comes torment back and rows 3 & 4 which might make for a good television but isn't very good for our nerves to be honest it was round 4 that saved you but your opponent's tonight to have a famously good record in that round so perhaps you're right few more points earlier but nobody will get any points unless we start the quiz so let's get on with round 1 where I will ask you simply what is the connection between for clues Epicureans you won the toss but you've decided to put the radio addicts in first so addicts please choose a question Kate will kick off with twisted Flags twisted facts first clue coming up now next there's the most essential points of conference perhaps the most essential point if you look the most central point of your house certainly 60% next oh it was central point the contradictory central part of the country in question yeah nothing else well we think it's the geographical center of the country that's named second it is not that so I'm going to show the fourth clue to the Epicureans you need to give it to me quickly see seasons of massacres they are not scenes of massacres no these are all places that have been abandoned we can't in the Ukraine after Chernobyl I think you know that's where it was abandoned Centralia in the USA after a mine fire oradour-sur-glane in France was a massacre destroyed during the war and st. kilda simply was abandoned in 1930 because his life there was just too difficult places that are now uninhabited so no bonus but Epicureans you can now choose a question water please water earth glue coming up now next next well it would makes it could well be could next these are all activities that were banned during wartime I'll accept it banned during the First World War under the defence of the realm Act they were banned first three obviously because they'd attract too much attention and that last one because the government feared that worker productivity would drop for me a few drinks makes my productivity even higher the government just don't think do they radio addict's please pick a question to reads please Therese these are going to be picture clues you've got the picture question what's the connection times dance now there's Martin next next - not into time most time you have to have it next almost 10 seconds support next five seconds wood they were all originally made out of wood Oh ridiculous you don't think that's the answer do but it is the older you were absolutely correct there are things that were originally made out of wood the first computer mouse was made of wood when the council was it stood there for hundred years was rebuilt out of stone by Henry the second golf balls were originally made of wood and Pinocchio was originally made of wood until put your fingers in your ears if you don't want the story spoilt he turned into a real boy so well done you get the point Epicureans please choose a question I have Horace please I have for us first clue coming up now next famous lines from films were never actually spoken in the film I'm afraid that's not the answer so I'm going to show the fourth clue to the radio addicts they were repeated in the sequel there are the lines performers were repeated in the sequel oh no they they weren't repeat it in sequels no they own famous lines from films there you were spoken in the films but not in the scripts because the connection is there all lines said to have been improvised by the actors the film's Casablanca at the shining taxi driver and jaws so no points on that question but radio addicts you now get to choose a hieroglyph line prism lion earth glue coming up now next are these subtitles I mean that was these are pre course plus I took those are they I'm not sure do you need another one do you think yeah yeah next I am burger fear that the titles were work would change around Prometheus pamper me if you some about I'm not sparking his second one was I am spawn right so Ekans next three seconds we don't Jeff okay Jake and I nominate em to say it exactly can they all had sequels where the titles were the opposite of those titles so I'll give you the point it's not exactly sequels but they are all works whose authors wrote the opposite titled work so Dante wrote Inferno and parodies Oh Prometheus Bound and Prometheus Unbound from Aeschylus Leonard Nimoy of course I'm not spoken throughout I am Spock and Milton wrote Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained so well done and that leaves the horned Viper for you at the Tyrians of course that'll be the music question and your first clue is coming up now a little bit next next next five seconds snakes why is that are there snakes and all the titles of those pieces of music films you there are snakes in the title of none of those pieces of music so I'm going to go over to the radio add extra possible bonus possibly something to do with King Arthur because the third one was from Camelot and the fourth or was announced their own table from Spamalot but absolutely right the connection is Arthurian legends you had Parsifal is he doing nothing from a Connecticut Yankee inking of how to handle a woman from Camelot and the one he recognized knights of the round table from Spamalot so at the end of round one the Epicureans have got one point but the radio addicts are in the lead with three round two is all about sequences this time I will show the teams the first in a sequence they can see the second and third but not the fourth because the fourth is the answer so radio annex you'll be going first again please choose a high road to reach please two weeks first in a sequence coming up what's fourth time starts now next he had scored more more runs in first-class cricket than anybody else on earth is doubling of attendants take the last give us one on five seconds we really don't Boston the barrels being scraped with 20 million New York and that's absolutely wrong as I'm sure you know so there's a possible bonus for you Epicureans 20 million Google no I'm surprised you don't know this because this is to do with a film that I would have thought you'd all like these are the prizes and correct answers from the last four questions in Slumdog Millionaire it's a brilliant question isn't it the film about a man doing Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in India these are the last four monsters and the prizes he gets Epicureans will there be another great question you can't answer have to hope not which hieroglyph would you like water please water first and a secrets coming up what is fourth time starts now next five seconds here rebirth reincarnation I'm afraid that is not the answer so possible bonus headaches try Sanka you along the right lines but that's not the right answer they are the Four Noble Truths of Buddhism and forth I never liked here Ashtanga kumigar but I'd have accepted the Eightfold Path it's translation radio edits please pick a question Lyon please lines first in a sequence coming up time starts now this order people who donate things because any free let me demonstrate next I think it is and that's money sure these take three houses ten eleven and twelve this next was it just enough to come up with it L thought I would take the next one next is still a first automatic fact okay the foreign minister or think they're all the order where they live in Danish people actually don't know who there's a number 12 afraid you have not given me the right answer so Epicureans have a go for bonus yeah chance for the Duchy of Lancaster goodness me where did that come from just a bit job scale for the final say I see no that's not the answer you won't correct these other people living in after number 9 10 and 11 Downing Street at number 12 the Prime Minister's press officer oh alright I think we need to see some points accrued Epicureans which hieroglyph would you like twisted flax please the worth of twisted flicks this is going to reveal to you some picture clues what would you expect to see in the fourth picture the first one is coming up now listen to it next see ymk let's have a nice fun really next we saw this well yeah I mean 10 seconds Jack Jack Black for example something Blackman I will accept it what I really wanted to hear was Kiwi put a picture of a key I think you know it's the CMYK process colors it is a printing process k4 key but the key color usually is black so I will take that answer nevertheless well done back to you radio edits to make a choice higher for us the first in a sequence coming up what's 4th time starts now he's dangerous igneous Holmes he was going on saij floors on it so next morning a Spanish business nh3 nh3 CH 4 and H 3 will be the next one next quarter h2o so we've got a four we've got three we've got C what maybe just hydrogen then one of us run its own yeah okay hydrogen I'm afraid that is not the answer so I'm going over to you Epicureans for possible voters can I nominate the chemistry school my history teacher let's hear it say Jeff pointer fluoric acid or hydrogen fluoride that is what I'm looking for can you please explain to your opponents why I could not for them at the points they're the hydroids of the second period element starting in group 4 group 5 group 6 and group 7 or 4 3 2 & 1 yeah he's completely right Eadie's hydrogen is involved but these are compounds that are created when you react hydrogen with as david says elements from the periodic table in the second row going from left to right I think that's complicated enough for a final game Clue very well done for the bonus point and now Epicureans you have your own question it's the horned Viper first flu coming up now the properties it is so it's gonna be it's gonna be last blue we're going around it we've got nearly equal 750 pounds I would go for it now yeah 750 definitely . blue equals 750 pounds amazingly you've

sets in monopoly and the total price of those properties congratulations on that well done at the end of round two then the radio addicts have got three points the Epicureans are ahead with nine it's
