1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.480
Which fabric is named after
the French city of Nîmes?

2
00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:05.200
The answer...
at the end of the show.

3
00:00:08.600 --> 00:00:11.920
Welcome back to Lateral,
and this is the first elimination match.

4
00:00:11.920 --> 00:00:15.640
At the end of this game one of these two
teams is going to be going home.

5
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:19.200
Let's meet them, and we start with
Team Pinky and the Brain.

6
00:00:19.560 --> 00:00:22.440
I am Lizzy, I am a Minecraft YouTuber

7
00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:25.080
and it turns out I'm not Pinky and the Brain,
I'm just Pinky.

8
00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:28.960
Hi, I'm Joel, it turns out
I might be the Brain,

9
00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:30.520
still not sure about that though.

10
00:00:30.520 --> 00:00:33.040
And I also make Minecraft YouTube videos.

11
00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:35.000
Now, it was pretty close in your last match,

12
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:37.200
what have you learned,
what are you going to do differently?

13
00:00:38.120 --> 00:00:40.320
I don't think we're going to
do much differently,

14
00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:42.440
we're just going to try and answer
questions correctly this time.

15
00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:44.720
It's always a good strategy.

16
00:00:45.080 --> 00:00:47.200
Playing against you today we have,

17
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:49.640
I have to remember that this is
team Terminator.

18
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.800
Which you picked purely to not be…

19
00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:54.360
Yeah, it was Team Arney.

20
00:00:54.360 --> 00:00:56.360
Yeah, it was a cruel childhood nickname

21
00:00:56.360 --> 00:00:59.040
because I was at primary school
when the Terminator films came out.

22
00:00:59.040 --> 00:01:01.920
And you don't get called Arney
without getting…

23
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:03.640
That is reasonable.

24
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:05.080
Please, introduce yourselves.

25
00:01:05.080 --> 00:01:09.120
I am Dr Kat Arney, I'm a science writer,
broadcaster and older sister of…

26
00:01:09.440 --> 00:01:12.240
Yeah, Helen Arney. I am a comedian,

27
00:01:12.240 --> 00:01:15.240
I am one third of the science comedy group
Festival of the Spoken Nerd

28
00:01:15.240 --> 00:01:17.120
and I am her younger sister.

29
00:01:17.720 --> 00:01:20.360
If it says anything about
how I would be at this game,

30
00:01:20.360 --> 00:01:23.880
I have only just realised the connection
between "Arnie" and team Terminator,

31
00:01:23.880 --> 00:01:25.720
-when you spelled it out there.
-Yeah.

32
00:01:25.720 --> 00:01:28.560
So... let's go with round one(!)

33
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:32.520
Round one is Deep Thought.

34
00:01:32.520 --> 00:01:34.760
There are six lateral thinking questions
in this round

35
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:36.680
and 60 seconds on the clock for each of them.

36
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:39.200
The earlier you buzz in,
the more points you'll get.

37
00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:43.000
But if you wait, I will be giving you clues
every 15 seconds.

38
00:01:43.320 --> 00:01:47.880
So if we're all ready, first question
goes to you guys, and we start now.

39
00:01:47.880 --> 00:01:52.040
Which animal, most commonly brown in
colour and seen in December,

40
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:55.320
has four legs, three heads and two hearts?

41
00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:56.960
-Two hearts?
-Two hearts.

42
00:01:56.960 --> 00:01:59.160
-What has two hearts?
-What has three heads?

43
00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:02.200
-Maybe it's a…
-Yeah, that is another weird thing.

44
00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:04.080
Maybe it's not an alive animal,
I've gathered from…

45
00:02:04.080 --> 00:02:05.920
Seen in December, Christmas maybe.

46
00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:08.880
-Christmas or…
-Reindeers don't have three heads though.

47
00:02:08.880 --> 00:02:11.120
No, they don't, neither do other animals.

48
00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:13.440
It has two main working parts.

49
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:15.720
Two main working parts.

50
00:02:15.720 --> 00:02:17.560
Wait, it's definitely an animal.

51
00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:20.160
It is an animal because it said,
'which animal'.

52
00:02:20.160 --> 00:02:22.680
Usually brown, usually brown,
not necessarily brown.

53
00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:25.240
-We might need to wait for another clue.
-Yeah, because I have literally no idea.

54
00:02:25.920 --> 00:02:27.520
It often makes people laugh.

55
00:02:29.160 --> 00:02:31.240
It would do if it has three heads.

56
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:35.200
It's not the dog from Harry Potter, that's the
only thing I can think of with three heads.

57
00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:36.800
-And it's not Dr Who.
-No.

58
00:02:37.920 --> 00:02:40.120
-As much as I would love for it to be.
-I have no idea.

59
00:02:40.480 --> 00:02:42.840
It's not an animal as such.

60
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:43.560
-Right.
-So…

61
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:45.400
-Right.
-Oh, it's not even an animal.

62
00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:48.280
Have you a clue?

63
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:51.400
Like a collection of animals? No.

64
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:55.720
-Go on.
-Rudolph!

65
00:02:56.320 --> 00:02:59.000
-Rudolph.
-Sorry for that.

66
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:02.640
Sadly there was not a three headed
Rudolph guarding the…

67
00:03:03.720 --> 00:03:05.720
I've not actually seen Harry Potter,
so I don't know.

68
00:03:05.720 --> 00:03:07.120
Why is it seen in December?

69
00:03:07.440 --> 00:03:09.280
Well, that's up to these guys.

70
00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:13.200
It's our favourite childhood game to play.

71
00:03:13.200 --> 00:03:15.880
-Pantomime horse.
-Pantomime horse, for one point.

72
00:03:15.880 --> 00:03:17.760
-It's exactly right.
-I was always the bum end.

73
00:03:17.760 --> 00:03:20.600
It has two working parts, the four legs,
the people in it,

74
00:03:20.600 --> 00:03:22.760
the three heads
are the one of the horse costume

75
00:03:22.760 --> 00:03:24.240
and the two people inside

76
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:26.800
-and the two hearts inside it.
-It makes sense now, yeah.

77
00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:31.400
So that's one point to team Terminator,
and the next question to you as well.

78
00:03:31.720 --> 00:03:38.400
In 1991, New Scientist reported that a free
phone number ending 123580

79
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:40.760
would feature in a new advertising campaign.

80
00:03:40.760 --> 00:03:42.400
What was the number for?

81
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:48.880
I mean question number one is
how do they know my PIN number?

82
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:55.960
So a free phone number ending 123580,

83
00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:58.120
right, okay, genuinely,
it's not my pin number anymore but...

84
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:00.920
This was in the days before Googling
phone numbers was easy.

85
00:04:00.920 --> 00:04:07.880
So it spells out a T, 123580, spells out a T,
that's why I used to use it as my pin code,

86
00:04:07.880 --> 00:04:09.960
you know when we used to have phone codes

87
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:11.320
-to ring our parents?
-Yeah.

88
00:04:11.320 --> 00:04:13.400
Like free phone codes,
that was my free phone code.

89
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:15.640
This wouldn't work on old style rotary phones.

90
00:04:15.640 --> 00:04:18.800
-Yeah, it's one... It's a T. No, it's...
-Okay, so it's a text number, isn't it?

91
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:21.120
Is it Yellow Pages,
do you think it's the Yellow Pages?

92
00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:23.320
Reporting something beginning with T

93
00:04:23.320 --> 00:04:26.600
or it's to tell some people
about something to do with T.

94
00:04:27.200 --> 00:04:28.880
-Is it about…
-It was to help people

95
00:04:28.880 --> 00:04:31.440
reach a vital night-time
service easily.

96
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:35.320
What's a night-time service
that begins with T?

97
00:04:35.760 --> 00:04:38.080
Bringing you tea in the morning.

98
00:04:38.080 --> 00:04:39.600
No, we're doing really badly at this.

99
00:04:41.640 --> 00:04:45.240
-Treason, trees, tree.
-And that is time.

100
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:46.720
Any guesses from over here?

101
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.000
-Go on, guess.
-Telephone.

102
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:53.160
-Taxi, it's a late night taxi service.
-Taxi.

103
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:55.960
You had the T, it's designed
so if you're drunk

104
00:04:55.960 --> 00:05:00.000
you can just spell out a T on your phone keypad
and it will get a taxi for you.

105
00:05:00.000 --> 00:01:23.880
It's like predictive text... pizza.

106
00:01:23.880 --> 00:05:02.200
-But perhaps not too careful.
-Yeah.

107
00:05:02.200 --> 00:05:04.240
-Yeah.
-Booze. Like what would you need?

108
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:06.200
Sadly no points there.

109
00:05:06.200 --> 00:05:07.800
The next question is over to you.

110
00:05:08.520 --> 00:05:13.000
In the 17th century, French sailors
used petitions as a form of mutiny

111
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:15.320
if they were unhappy with conditions on board.

112
00:05:15.320 --> 00:05:18.000
How did they write their signatures
on the petition

113
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:21.280
so that nobody could be accused of
instigating the rebellion?

114
00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:26.160
So it's got to be anonymous, kind of.

115
00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:28.480
Yeah, but how can they do
an anonymous signature?

116
00:05:29.080 --> 00:05:30.240
They could do the X.

117
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:33.360
Oh, no, but that wouldn't work because
they'd just write x's

118
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.880
-and one person could forge it all.
-You're thinking pirates too much, I think.

119
00:05:36.880 --> 00:05:38.840
No, people are writing x when they have…

120
00:05:38.840 --> 00:05:42.600
A traditional list would have cast suspicion
on the first person on it.

121
00:05:43.200 --> 00:05:44.960
They wrote in randomly in random orders, maybe.

122
00:05:44.960 --> 00:05:47.120
They could have, yeah, maybe like they just …

123
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:50.160
instead of one long line,
it was just a scramble.

124
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:51.600
-Shall we try it?
-Yeah.

125
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:53.000
For three points.

126
00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:57.920
Well, they wrote it just randomly
on the page rather than in a list.

127
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:01.280
No, there would still be someone at the top
of that list who would get accused.

128
00:06:01.280 --> 00:06:04.680
So the question restarts, if you want to
buzz immediately, you can get three points.

129
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:06.080
Oh!

130
00:06:06.440 --> 00:06:10.080
Did they write it like around a log
or around some kind of cylinder?

131
00:06:10.080 --> 00:06:12.680
Yes, for three points,
it was a circular bit of paper,

132
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:14.960
but yes, I'll accept cylinder
so that's three points to you

133
00:06:14.960 --> 00:06:16.520
and you get the next question.

134
00:06:16.520 --> 00:06:17.800
Take a look at this.

135
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:22.840
In order, which compass directions
are represented by these hieroglyphs?

136
00:06:22.840 --> 00:06:24.920
Okay, that's nuts.

137
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:33.280
So where does the wind most prevalently...
blow in Egypt?

138
00:06:33.280 --> 00:06:36.880
-That's wind blowing from west to east
-Is that how it normally...

139
00:06:36.880 --> 00:06:38.040
So it's going that way.

140
00:06:38.400 --> 00:06:40.720
The seasons enabled year round travel.

141
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.880
And so… oh, well, the rudder,
oar thing has to be against the tide...

142
00:06:48.640 --> 00:06:50.720
No, is that flowing with the tide?

143
00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:53.720
I'm assuming it's in Egypt so hieroglyphs
represent what is happening in Egypt,

144
00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:56.240
- don't care about the rest...
-The Nile was important for Egyptians.

145
00:06:56.240 --> 00:07:00.920
So the Nile goes to north, flows from there
and up to the north to the top.

146
00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:04.400
So is the second one flowing with the tide
and it's just steering?

147
00:07:04.400 --> 00:07:06.040
-And the first one…
-Alright.

148
00:07:06.040 --> 00:07:08.880
-For two points.
-I think the first one is…

149
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:11.680
-I need an answer now.
-Going south

150
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:13.880
because it's against the tide and the other
one's going north

151
00:07:13.880 --> 00:07:15.200
because it's flowing with the tide.

152
00:07:15.200 --> 00:07:16.920
And it's just got a little rudder to steer it.

153
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:22.040
Is correct for two points for exactly
that reason, absolutely right.

154
00:07:22.040 --> 00:07:23.440
So that is two points.

155
00:07:23.440 --> 00:07:26.440
Last two questions in this round are on the
buzzer, so open to both teams,

156
00:07:26.440 --> 00:07:28.200
let's see if we can get you off the mark.

157
00:07:28.200 --> 00:07:30.680
The Wikipedia article for this
eight letter word

158
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:34.320
is illustrated by an Henri Vidal sculpture
of Cain after killing Abel.

159
00:07:34.320 --> 00:07:38.000
Since its coining in 2006,
numerous stock brokers,

160
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:42.400
sports fans and even a famous sci-fi character
have been associated with this action

161
00:07:42.400 --> 00:07:45.920
at certain moments, and it was given
its own Unicode emoji in 2016.

162
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:47.880
-Name the word.
-Okay.

163
00:07:47.880 --> 00:07:50.840
Well, it can't be sexting because
that's only seven letters.

164
00:07:50.840 --> 00:07:53.120
-I don't know anything about sculptures.
-No, me neither.

165
00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:55.120
-I know emojis.
-Famous sci-fi character.

166
00:07:57.080 --> 00:08:01.080
Stock brokers, sports fans, is it…

167
00:08:01.080 --> 00:08:02.880
it's something 'ing' isn't it?

168
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:05.880
-And it's not killing.
-It's a word of regret.

169
00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:10.600
I don't know, I was thinking Spock fingers,
but I re-read the question.

170
00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:12.640
I definitely don't think it's that anymore.

171
00:08:13.440 --> 00:08:15.240
-Moping, apologising...?
-No.

172
00:08:17.480 --> 00:08:19.040
Look... I don't know.

173
00:08:19.560 --> 00:08:21.760
It involves two parts of the body.

174
00:08:22.280 --> 00:08:23.320
Two parts of the body.

175
00:08:23.960 --> 00:08:25.560
-Fawning...
-Sword, swording...

176
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:27.040
You don't regret doing that, do you?

177
00:08:27.400 --> 00:08:28.960
-What do you regret doing?
-I think…

178
00:08:28.960 --> 00:08:31.240
-Two points.
-I think it's "facepalm".

179
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:32.480
You are correct.

180
00:08:33.040 --> 00:08:35.400
The sci-fi character is Jean-Luc Picard.

181
00:08:36.400 --> 00:08:37.680
-Oh, yeah.
-Oh.

182
00:08:37.680 --> 00:08:41.240
You're absolutely right, that is two points
and the last question in this round...

183
00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:47.000
In 1997, a cable company in Racine, Wisconsin,
offered free t-shirts in a television advert

184
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:49.280
during a break in a
major pay-per-view boxing match.

185
00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:52.000
The advert was scrambled or encoded
in such a way

186
00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:55.440
that their customers would not
be able to see it. Why?

187
00:08:57.880 --> 00:08:59.320
Why?

188
00:09:00.160 --> 00:09:04.040
Because they didn't want give away
the t-shirts, or the free t-shirts.

189
00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:06.000
Free t-shirts…

190
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:08.000
So is it...

191
00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:10.320
Maybe boxing has something to do with it.

192
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:13.920
It was deliberate
that the customers couldn't see.

193
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:19.240
But if their… the customers can't see it...

194
00:09:19.240 --> 00:09:22.120
But, oh, was it the… it was a rival network?

195
00:09:26.760 --> 00:09:30.840
When the t-shirts were sent out,
the company sent something else with them.

196
00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:34.040
-Was it like…
-Like a magic eye?

197
00:09:34.040 --> 00:09:37.040
Magic eye, 3D glasses or something like that,
and they had to…

198
00:09:37.040 --> 00:09:39.080
-Yeah.
-A mirror?

199
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:41.320
-It was the 90s.
-Yeah.

200
00:09:42.080 --> 00:09:45.000
The company caught six people for something.

201
00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:50.280
Maybe if they like don't pay for cable
or something.

202
00:09:50.280 --> 00:09:52.000
-Wait!
-For one point.

203
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:55.120
You can only see the advert
if you don't pay for your cable.

204
00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:58.280
Exactly right, you are off the mark,
you've got the point.

205
00:09:58.280 --> 00:09:59.920
They were catching cable pirates.

206
00:10:00.640 --> 00:10:03.360
Because if you're pirating the signal,
it would decrypt.

207
00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:06.080
Only the cable boxes they had
wouldn't show it to you.

208
00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:08.920
So if you sent off for your free t-shirt,
you were pirating the cable,

209
00:10:08.920 --> 00:10:10.320
and they sent the police.

210
00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:11.560
Wow!

211
00:10:11.560 --> 00:10:13.760
I don't actually know if they sent the free
t-shirt as well, but...

212
00:10:13.760 --> 00:10:15.720
Come on, send the t-shirt as well!

213
00:10:16.400 --> 00:10:20.160
So at the end of that round,
Team Terminator, eight points.

214
00:10:20.160 --> 00:10:22.400
Team Pinky,
you're off the mark, you've got one.

215
00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:24.320
Better than we thought we'd do.

216
00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:28.880
The second round is Second Thought.

217
00:10:28.880 --> 00:10:30.840
You're going to see a board of twelve numbers.

218
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:34.240
You're going to pick one number in turn
and reveal the clue that's behind it.

219
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:38.520
All those clues point to one specific thing,
and I need to know what that thing is.

220
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:41.960
And it's got to be for everything,
even the clues you haven't seen yet.

221
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:45.960
You are going to take the first one
off the first board, pick a number.

222
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:47.520
-Nine, please.
-Number nine.

223
00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:49.960
Requires one cube.

224
00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:53.600
Sugar.
Sugar is…

225
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:56.520
It's a lovely idea, not what I've got.

226
00:10:57.040 --> 00:10:57.040
-Pick a number.
-Three.

227
00:10:57.040 --> 00:10:58.360
-Pick a number.
-Seven?

228
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:00.480
-Yeah, let's go for seven..
-Number seven.

229
00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:02.200
Said to be a morality tale.

230
00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:04.000
A morality tale.

231
00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:06.360
-Morality tale...
-Requiring a cube.

232
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:10.720
The hare and the tortoise,
one of them lives in a cube... what?

233
00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:12.440
It is not the hare and the tortoise.

234
00:11:12.760 --> 00:11:14.040
-Team Pinky.
-Eleven.

235
00:11:14.040 --> 00:11:15.120
Eleven.

236
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:18.000
Sometimes seen on playgrounds,
for four points.

237
00:11:18.800 --> 00:11:20.360
A climbing frame.

238
00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:22.240
No, not what I've got, so...

239
00:11:22.680 --> 00:11:25.080
-Let's go two, up on the left, yeah.
-Number two.

240
00:11:25.400 --> 00:11:26.920
Reptiles are bad.

241
00:11:28.280 --> 00:11:33.160
Well, I think that is a moral judgement
that is unacceptable in this context.

242
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:34.920
Is it snakes and ladders?

243
00:11:34.920 --> 00:11:36.240
Yes, absolutely right.

244
00:11:36.240 --> 00:11:38.040
When I was growing up,
I had a snakes and ladders set.

245
00:11:38.040 --> 00:11:40.480
On the ladders,
there was a kid doing a good deed,

246
00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:42.720
and on the snakes there was a kid
doing something naughty.

247
00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:44.240
Apparently that's a thing.

248
00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:46.880
Yeah, but come on,
the naughty ones have way more fun.

249
00:11:46.880 --> 00:11:48.680
And you got to slide down the snakes, I know.

250
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:51.320
You also get the first choice
off the next board.

251
00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:51.320
-Ten.
-Number ten.

252
00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:52.640
-Ten.
-Go ten.

253
00:11:52.640 --> 00:11:53.760
Number ten.

254
00:11:53.760 --> 00:11:55.120
Vibration.

255
00:11:56.960 --> 00:11:58.800
-Okay, put aside
the first thing you thought of.

256
00:11:58.800 --> 00:12:00.560
-Physics. Yeah, physics.
-You're going to say physics?

257
00:12:00.560 --> 00:12:02.400
It's not, I'm handing this over.
Team Pinky, pick a number.

258
00:12:02.400 --> 00:12:04.120
-Number one.
-Number one.

259
00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:06.000
Most need a stick.

260
00:12:06.800 --> 00:12:08.320
Gaming controller.

261
00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:10.320
Is not…

262
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:11.960
it's a lovely guess, it's not what I've got.

263
00:12:12.560 --> 00:12:14.120
-Seven.
-Number seven.

264
00:12:14.760 --> 00:12:17.480
-Tight.
-I mean, are we just picking the rude ones

265
00:12:17.480 --> 00:12:19.920
or are they all rude?

266
00:12:19.920 --> 00:12:22.120
-I don't know what you mean.
-I need an answer.

374
00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:23.280
No.

268
00:12:23.280 --> 00:12:24.960
-No, I'm handing this over.
-A pogo.

269
00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:25.880
Pogo, no.

270
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:28.040
-Six.
-Number six.

271
00:12:28.680 --> 00:12:29.760
Comes in kits.

272
00:12:30.520 --> 00:12:34.120
I was thinking like a car,
but then not anymore.

273
00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:36.880
Comes in a kit, can kits come in cars?

274
00:12:36.880 --> 00:12:39.680
-Can cars come in kits?
-Yeah. A car.

275
00:12:39.680 --> 00:12:42.000
A car, no, so for three points, pick a number.

276
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:44.480
Well, I mean, one, I'm thinking, who's Kit?

277
00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:46.960
-But secondly, we should choose a number.
-Four?

278
00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:48.000
Number four.

406
00:12:48.680 --> 00:12:52.560
In the ear.

280
00:12:52.560 --> 00:12:54.040
I just can't think straight.

281
00:12:54.040 --> 00:12:56.080
Oh, it is drums.

282
00:12:56.400 --> 00:13:00.120
Yes, it is drums, you are absolutely right:
a drum kit.

283
00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:04.120
Wow, there are a lot of worse options
up there.

284
00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:05.360
-Wow!
-For three points,

285
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:07.200
it is, thankfully, drum.

286
00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:09.280
So team Pinky, the first one's yours.

287
00:13:09.640 --> 00:13:11.480
Hopefully we can get some points here.

288
00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:13.480
-Number eight.
-Number eight.

289
00:13:14.160 --> 00:13:15.280
Tightrope.

290
00:13:15.920 --> 00:13:17.440
-You guess.
-Acrobatics.

291
00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:19.560
Acrobatics, no,
I'm going to hand it back over.

292
00:13:23.160 --> 00:13:24.680
On a country border.

293
00:13:25.040 --> 00:13:27.720
-Oh! Can I do a guess?
-Yeah.

294
00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:29.720
-You're not going to be upset with me?
-No, guess, go.

295
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:32.240
-Like you were when I was…
-No, you let me go all the time.

296
00:13:32.240 --> 00:13:33.480
I think it's Niagara Falls.

297
00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:35.040
And you're right for five points.

298
00:13:35.040 --> 00:13:38.320
Oh, skills. Do you know why I knew that?

299
00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:41.760
Because our other sister that we
don't talk about, lives near Niagara Falls.

300
00:13:41.760 --> 00:13:44.480
She's like our special pixie
that gives us answers.

301
00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:46.320
I mean it's a strategy, certainly.

302
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:51.920
But your magic pixie has got you five points,
which gives you a commanding lead.

303
00:13:51.920 --> 00:13:54.760
But there is still one question left
and it's your first pick.

304
00:13:55.480 --> 00:13:57.080
You're forgiven,
everything you've ever done to me.

305
00:13:57.080 --> 00:13:58.400
Everything is forgiven. Six.

306
00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:00.440
Number six.

307
00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:01.760
Today before yesterday.

308
00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:04.880
-Going to say... Monday.
-Monday.

309
00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:07.640
No, it's not Monday, so handing it over.

310
00:14:07.640 --> 00:11:12.760
Possible five points, pick a number.

311
00:11:12.760 --> 00:14:11.120
-Eleven.
-Eleven.

312
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:13.680
X is the shortest.

313
00:14:15.800 --> 00:14:17.320
Friday?

314
00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:19.640
No, not taking that, so.

315
00:14:19.640 --> 00:14:22.320
-We've got five left on our guessing list.
-Okay.

316
00:14:25.280 --> 00:14:26.640
Number thee.

317
00:14:26.640 --> 00:14:29.360
Can be medical.

318
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:32.800
-Rays?
-X-rays.

319
00:14:32.800 --> 00:14:34.680
No, it's not what I've got.

320
00:14:35.040 --> 00:14:36.800
So for four points, pick a number.

321
00:14:36.800 --> 00:14:38.280
-Two.
-Number two.

322
00:14:38.800 --> 00:14:40.880
First English one in 1604.

323
00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:46.760
I think they've got it -
we need to get this now.

324
00:14:46.760 --> 00:14:48.400
-Quickly, answer Lizzy, go for it.
-Ah, yeah.

325
00:14:48.400 --> 00:14:50.400
-Get the answer right.
-I don't think it's Thursday.

326
00:14:50.400 --> 00:14:52.800
-I'm going to tell you that now.
-Need an answer from you.

327
00:14:52.800 --> 00:14:55.480
-Light rays.
-Light is not what I've got.

328
00:14:55.840 --> 00:14:57.680
So for three points,
pick a number.

329
00:14:57.680 --> 00:14:58.520
Five.

330
00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:01.080
Number five, slightly different in the US.

331
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:02.000
It's a dictionary.

332
00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:03.960
It is a dictionary, for three points.

333
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:05.520
It's the dictionary.

334
00:15:05.520 --> 00:15:08.760
Today comes before yesterday
in alphabetical order in the dictionary.

335
00:15:08.760 --> 00:15:13.320
X is the shortest section,
and that is the end of the round.

336
00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:16.640
And the scores are 23:1.

337
00:15:19.440 --> 00:15:21.200
The last round is Quick Thought.

338
00:15:21.200 --> 00:15:24.000
Both teams, you're going to have
90 seconds thinking time.

339
00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:26.760
But because you're in the lead we're going
to give you five extra seconds

340
00:15:26.760 --> 00:15:28.320
for each point you're in the lead.

341
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:31.200
You have a 22 point advantage.

342
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:36.040
That translates to 3:20 on your clock
and 1:30 on yours.

343
00:15:36.040 --> 00:15:38.800
Now, that is going to be difficult to make up,

344
00:15:38.800 --> 00:15:42.000
particularly because your clock
starts counting first.

345
00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:45.760
But I know from rehearsals,
I know from tests, it can be done.

346
00:15:46.200 --> 00:15:47.680
So very best of luck to you.

347
00:15:47.680 --> 00:15:50.400
Buzz in correctly, your clock will stop
and it'll go over to your opponents.

348
00:15:50.400 --> 00:15:53.960
Buzz in incorrectly, ten seconds away
and your clock restarts.

349
00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:55.720
-Careful on the buzzer.
-Okay, you too.

350
00:15:58.560 --> 00:16:01.280
Best of luck, your time starts now.

351
00:16:01.280 --> 00:16:04.920
What was the first product advertised
on the UK's newest television station,

352
00:16:04.920 --> 00:16:08.040
Channel 5, on the 30th of March 1997?

353
00:16:08.520 --> 00:16:10.680
-Well, I wasn't alive.
-I wasn't even alive.

354
00:16:10.680 --> 00:16:12.120
So I wasn't there to see it.

355
00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:14.360
It's one of the word's most famous brands.

356
00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:18.040
It could be…
no, they don't advertise drugs in Britain.

357
00:16:18.040 --> 00:16:19.520
Toothpaste. Cigarettes.

358
00:16:20.400 --> 00:16:21.640
Maybe.

359
00:16:22.160 --> 00:16:24.440
Channel 5 was a very apt choice.

360
00:16:25.560 --> 00:16:28.800
-Gosh!
-Because they… what year was it?

361
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:30.880
1957, I think.

362
00:16:32.400 --> 00:16:34.560
It's very close to Channel 5.

363
00:16:37.760 --> 00:16:39.320
-Guess.
-Yes.

364
00:16:39.320 --> 00:16:40.600
Channel 4.

365
00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:42.880
No, it isn't, that's ten seconds away,
it's Chanel No 5.

366
00:16:42.880 --> 00:16:44.200
God.

367
00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:45.800
You have 44 seconds left.

368
00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:50.840
Which soft drink brand launched a version
called 'dnL' in 2002?

369
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:53.480
D...

370
00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:56.080
Mountain Dew, Sprite, Dr…

371
00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:57.440
Dr Pepper, Coca Cola...

372
00:16:57.440 --> 00:16:59.240
Only the L was in capital letters.

373
00:17:00.640 --> 00:12:22.120
-So...
-dnL, do not…

374
00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:23.280
No.

375
00:17:07.520 --> 00:17:10.360
The slogan was
"turn your thirst upside down".

376
00:17:10.360 --> 00:17:11.800
7 Up.

377
00:17:11.800 --> 00:17:14.720
Yes, is exactly right, 3 minutes 20
on your clock.

378
00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:19.760
Who can you write to using the official
Royal Mail postcode XM4 5HQ?

379
00:17:20.120 --> 00:16:37.760
Father Christmas.

380
00:16:37.760 --> 00:17:23.400
-Yes.
-Father Christmas!

381
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:26.800
-How do you know that?
-Yes, it spells out Xmas HQ.

382
00:17:26.800 --> 00:17:28.640
20.2 seconds on your clock.

383
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:32.720
In 2015, Sanrio revealed that which
character was an English schoolgirl

384
00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:34.080
with the surname White?

385
00:17:35.680 --> 00:17:38.000
Hello Kitty's Sanrio,
I don't know anything else.

386
00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:39.520
I don't know anything about that.

387
00:17:39.840 --> 00:17:42.800
-Hello Kitty.
-Hello Kitty is correct. 3:15.

388
00:17:43.560 --> 00:17:46.680
Which gardener got his famous nickname
because he often told his clients

389
00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:48.160
their land was "capable of improvement"?

390
00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:50.000
Ooh, Capability Brown.

391
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:52.600
-Is correct, 10.1 seconds.
-Why is this happening?

392
00:17:52.600 --> 00:17:55.760
Ribes nigrum is
the Latin name for which fruit?

393
00:17:58.920 --> 00:18:00.320
I need an answer now.

394
00:18:00.320 --> 00:18:02.000
-Blackberry.
-Blackcurrant.

395
00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:04.000
-Blackcurrant, sorry.
-Oh my God.

396
00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.160
I have to take your first answer.
I am so sorry.

397
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:08.360
Oh! Why did you say blackcurrant?

398
00:18:08.360 --> 00:18:11.240
You are absolutely right, it's blackcurrant,
because Ribena.

399
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:13.000
-Ribena...
-Is spelled out with that

400
00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:16.760
and you don't have ten seconds to give away
off your clock, I'm afraid.

401
00:18:16.760 --> 00:18:20.880
So that means today's winners are
Team Terminator, congratulations to you.

402
00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:24.680
Commiserations, Team Pinky,
you put up a very valiant effort,

403
00:18:24.680 --> 00:18:26.840
but that was just not surmountable.

404
00:18:26.840 --> 00:18:30.120
So, commiserations to you,
congratulations to you

405
00:18:30.120 --> 00:12:48.680
and we'll see you next
time on Lateral.

406
00:12:48.680 --> 00:12:52.560
In the ear.
