narrow margin somehow here they are again I think this year we're inviting everyone back for another go and what that means is that whoever wins tonight could still go through to the semi-finals though not automatically whoever loses having had two bites of the cherry will be going home with faces like they've been sucking lemons so at least that's two of your five a day so let's say hello again to on my right Paul Taylor a post graduate research assistant with an interest in the chemistry of cooking said the page a specialist in American Civil War and revolution who keeps greyhounds

Christi College Oxford they are the corpuscles Sam Sam of the missing bowels you were just pip to the post by the cap lovers in the last game how did that go for you it was pretty close but hopefully

students so something with two heads so simon and garfunkel acceptable we actually thought of Zaphod Beeblebrox is I think you muttered over there but you are absolutely right we are looking at things with five four three and two heads say for two people rocks from the Hedgehog's guide for the attackers guide would be an example as would Simon and Garfunkel I saw them when they played live recently in London the music was so wonderful they couldn't bear to look at each other they just they couldn't I mean the money they were getting must've lured them to Hyde Park but you have never seen two people further apart on the stage I've never seen anything so far apart on stage since I went to see Dolly Parton and the front row was 23 miles from the front nobody looks up closer at dolly very well done back to you Carter files the horned Viper please will Viper these are going to be picture clues what would you expect to see in the fourth picture here's the first next oh that's the Fords so spring forwards Hall Zach so it's going to be spring physics itself yes spring forward who'sa back a picture of Denis Irwin who was a fullback how very complicated I'm going to accept it all those I think you were saying : it's in via a picture over back we went for what's the logic it's spring Ford fullbacks over the clocks going forward in the spring and back in the fall as our American cousin was saying that's exactly right it's that mnemonic and I wish I could give you extra points for the detail of the fourth loop every week I'm afraid I can't but I will give you a three points for coming in after two clues very well that core puzzles that leaves water and I would like to know what is going to be the fourth in the sequence here's the first clue this is the Chinese social networking site it's no way that's changings attended the science that my bed was corrugated being something that Google it's gotta be Google they are search engines in terms of size market share next

the connecting wall the 60 includes that needs sorting into four connected groups of four corpuscles you will be going first this time and the first challenge view is to decide whether you want lion or water can we have water please you certainly could so there'll be sixteen clues there is only one perfect solution what is it you've got two and a half minutes to work that out starting now Murray so point to point this time a race course the courses jousting leaving justing you've got potential you've got like channel John check this there's like radio DJs on John Hill John field as you've got Pandora's box England D both rivers as well right I think Everton owns the top knees as well do want to differ more thing Mike when Rovers that they're a football team what else rifles a scotch right

P length of day and pop stars that I've been hacking what's that diverse of those guy roams or lines point-to-point lines ten peg online mrs. Johnston right Streisand mixer Murray glacier of tribal events everything minutes no now to tripped on your name strikes right over Pierre and Marie deed so it's the fourth on their young and that's out of time the wall has frozen but you've got a group I'll give you another point if you can tell me the connection between those clues their activities that you ride a horse to take part in now sports conducted on horseback that's absolutely right and there are more points available for the connections in the groups you didn't find so let's resolve the room peel young Blackburn D they're DJs they were Radio one DJ at one stage absolutely I'm surprised you didn't get those who named atrophic combination is that what it was always think about SAR just too young for them but yes Radio one DJ's what about the next one Murray Galicia Everton scotch I can take the dancers there the mints don't know Everton mints the white ones a bit like home box empty means and the last one Pandora polo rivals right thank you folks Jilly Cooper box they are novels by Julie Cooper absolutely so you did sort of know what the groups were it was just finding them but you do get a point for the group you found and four points for the connection so that is a total of five this has been a very close game so far let's see if the same applies to the connecting wall a new wall is being brought out Carter files let's see what you can do with yours it's gonna be the lion wall waters been taken you've got two and a half minutes to solve it starting now okay we've got postcodes we okay that was groups of countries brick g20 yeah we have got postcode because of 93 through a state of III is that was the way that was this Nick Corey Buzzcocks their nicknames of deviation okay and strictly and then also millionaire okay so let's try it live out what its gonna be okay let's try it out millionaire throw without straightening okay I'm a Korean drumlin a murrain are all Geographic on striations geological okay right it's three strikes maybe I can factor and maybe not rich people then brick do 27 and are all groups of users who just check for it nicknames for TV shows there's nothing which shows on Western physiological fitness is there anything I don't know about that they they were I think they were glacier glacial they all show special place he'll know geological features at me I think okay so should we go through yeah of course bonus points available for the connections what about this one millionaire tw3 Buzzcocks strictly so those are nicknames for television shows famous abbreviations for television shows if you had to watch one of those shows four times a day for the rest of your life which one would it be that was the week that was yes really all three of you know I'd watch millionaire faylene but he goes for strictly oh but I'd rather only connect that's the right answer there may be bonus points coming what about this next group striations quarry drumlin moraine well those are we've all to do with places they sell geographical features that's rightfully glaciated landscape absolutely correct well this next one fat cat mogul and magnet tycoon which isn't this men that's its rich businessman and business people I suppose one should say I'm not sure if you'd call a woman a fat cat but I'd certainly like to be one still one out of two ain't bad and the last group in 11 brick 7g 20 so those are all groups of countries or political or economic groupings of country so brick is Brazil Russia India China of the leading emerging nations g20 is the group of 20 industrialized nations in 11 I think is the non-aligned movement and I don't know what e 7 is see how that they were all boy bones but you're absolutely right they are economic groups n 11 is the next 11 after the BRICS that includes Indonesia Mexico Turkey ones like that eise evan is the seven emerging economies so that's BRIC plus Indonesia Mexico and Turkey economic groups of Nations that is absolutely right so four points for the groups you found four points for the connections plus you get the bonus too for saying only connect is better than any of those shows or depending on how you want to interpret it for getting it all right that is the maximum of ten let's have a look at the scores the core puzzles are up to 19 points but the Carter files are ahead with 23 what's that more walls you say why not go to our website where you'll find plenty plus you can even make your own but we will be playing the missing vowels round this is the point of course what I say of course as if I were even beginning to understand it but one of the teams may actually go home one team will be staying on and one will be coming to the end of its run fingers on buzzers teams the first group are all resins frankincense correct mystique hey that's not the answer so you lose the point there's a bonus possibility the core puzzles mastic mastic is correct next clue pals gum from afraid you

such close teams I don't know if you remember tiebreaks from watching the program this is how it works captain's only fingers on buzzers you are going to get one clue of missing vowels I am NOT going to tell you the category your teammates may not join in it is high noon just the two of you and bear in mind if you buzz in and give me an incorrect answer the other team will automatically win by default so buzz in with care one clue only good luck captains it is coming up on your screens now Carter files so long and thanks for all the fish your team stays alive in the competition you could
