This is the BBC. Hello

0:31

and welcome. It is the penultimate match

0:33

of the 2024 Round

0:35

Britain quiz season and the tournament is

0:37

reaching its crucial final stages. These

0:40

last few contests will determine who notches

0:42

up the most victories and ends up

0:44

at the top of the RBQ league

0:46

table. It might be the

0:48

Midlands, or it might be the South of

0:50

England, both of whom are here for their

0:52

final clash of the series. Steve Maddock and

0:54

Frankie Franco are the Midlands

0:56

team. Are you confident of repeating

0:59

the result from last time? Never

1:01

confident. Always cautious. And

1:06

yeah, let's see. It

1:08

was close. Paul Sinner and Marcus Berkman at the

1:10

South of England. You were just at one point

1:12

behind the Midlands last time. I

1:14

know you'll be hoping to reverse

1:17

that presumably. Yeah, that's subject

1:19

to the legal appeal that we set in motion

1:21

several weeks ago. OK, well,

1:23

good luck to all of you. We'll let

1:25

you loose on your questions in a moment.

1:27

We're about to hand out the question papers

1:29

to the teams so they can make a

1:31

start at deciphering them. You

1:33

can play along at home too because the

1:36

questions are laid out with today's

1:38

programme information online. And it's

1:41

really helpful actually to read them because

1:43

you can see the punctuation, the capital

1:45

letters in some of the questions, which

1:47

do provide vital clues here and there.

1:50

Before we start and give our teams a

1:52

little bit more time, I'm going to

1:54

give you the solution to the teaser

1:56

question I left hanging at the end

1:59

of the contest. last time, I

2:01

asked what connects Edward I, an

2:04

actor who played twins, a

2:06

treatise against witchcraft and a

2:08

song by Pete Seeger, and

2:11

the answer to that is hammer. Edward

2:13

I was known to some as the

2:15

hammer of the Scots. The

2:18

actor is army hammer in the

2:20

social network. Treatise

2:22

is the 15th century Malleus Maleficarum,

2:24

which a hammer or denunciation of

2:27

witchcraft is what it referred to

2:29

when it was first published in

2:31

Germany, and the Pete Seeger song that

2:33

unites all of them is If I Had a Hammer.

2:36

Well done if you picked that and got

2:38

six out of six. There's more detail on

2:40

our web pages if you're curious to dig

2:43

down into that. They say

2:45

that to somebody with a hammer, everything

2:47

looks like a nail. So for

2:49

Frankie and Steven, with that in

2:51

mind, deal with the first

2:53

of today's nails if you

2:55

would. In Edinburgh, somebody

2:57

shows you to your seat at a

3:00

wedding. In Poole,

3:02

you're in a place that sends warnings to

3:04

ships. In Manchester,

3:06

you find Simon and Garfunkel's

3:09

last album with the

3:11

middle missing. So where has a

3:13

herb recently become

3:16

a prison? So let me

3:18

repeat that. In Edinburgh, somebody shows you

3:20

to your seat at a wedding. In

3:22

Poole, you're in a place that sends

3:24

warnings to ships. In Manchester, you find

3:26

Simon and Garfunkel's last album with the

3:28

middle missing. So where has a herb

3:30

recently become a prison? So

3:34

we think we are dealing with concert

3:36

venues here. Someone who shows you

3:38

to your seat at a wedding would be an usher. As

3:42

are in Edinburgh, that'd be

3:44

referring to the Gacha Hall, Edinburgh's

3:46

main concert hall. And a

3:49

place that sends warnings to ships, of course, will be

3:52

a lighthouse. We also have the Poole Lighthouse. Then

3:58

in Manchester, the

4:00

main concert venue, home of the Haller Orchestra

4:02

and the BBC Philharmonic, is the Bridgewater Hall.

4:05

And of course Simon and Garfunkel's

4:07

last album was Bridge Over Troubled Water, so

4:10

we've taken out the two middle words and

4:12

we've just got bridge and water. And

4:15

where has a herb recently become a

4:17

prison? So the wonderful Norman Foster concert

4:19

hall on the banks of the Tyne,

4:22

the Sage Gatehead, was

4:24

named actually not for the herb, but for

4:26

a computer company who sponsored it at the

4:28

start, and they are now building another

4:30

venue next door, so they wanted the name

4:32

taken of the beautiful hall. So it is

4:35

now kind of say what you see, it's

4:37

a glass house, so it's now the glass

4:39

house, International Centre for Music, so

4:41

we would find that in Gatehead. That's

4:44

absolutely correct, just help us out on a

4:46

wide prison with a clue. Oh,

4:49

because a glass house is a prison. It's

4:51

slang from prison. Yes. That's right. What

4:54

used to be the Sage in Gatehead

4:56

is now the glass house and

4:58

the home of the World Northern Symphonia. Oh,

5:00

pretty much a perfect answer. I'm going to

5:02

have to give you six. Good

5:06

start there for the Midlands. Now over to

5:08

the south of England with question two. Somebody

5:11

who put his signature on a

5:14

urinal, two people of very

5:16

different heights, and Robert

5:18

John Lang. What kind

5:20

of a dog might they all own? So

5:23

somebody who put his signature on

5:26

a urinal, two people of very

5:28

different heights, and Robert

5:30

John Lang. What kind of a dog might

5:33

they all own? Well, to start in the

5:35

middle, Robert John Lang is a record

5:38

producer, possibly Canadian, can't remember actually, but

5:40

anyway, who had a nickname

5:42

Mutt Lang. That's absolutely right,

5:44

South African born. Yeah,

5:46

yeah. Very versatile in that

5:48

he produced two albums, he only produced two

5:51

albums in the best selling then

5:53

ever with the ACDC

5:55

album and I think a Shania Twain

5:57

album as well. That's right. With

6:00

it then wife. Yes, Yes!

6:03

And. Say. About to

6:05

the beginning the past the same suppose you

6:07

sing so the road was more so. do

6:09

so with his. Piece.

6:11

Of Art fountain have any you are

6:14

these six April on the one who

6:16

was so the odds a month so

6:18

I'm not. I'm absolutely. Which.

6:21

Brings to the middle. To

6:24

people very different heights. This.

6:26

Is where we start struggles and.

6:29

Social cockney rhyming slang. I'm

6:33

Jeff. Oh. Fun! Just

6:35

death. Mutt and Jeff

6:37

A to for the rate of knots. And.

6:40

Who were they what inspired that? How

6:42

is a musical that? A.

6:46

Popular. Comic Strip. Light

6:49

was created in the U S. Niceness hadn't

6:51

by but fish around to seventy five years

6:53

and they were mismatch. Characters are be a

6:55

one to one shorts and the became so

6:58

widely recognized that the phrase muntjac became so

7:00

and people have two different heights at so

7:02

so of referring to good cop bad cop

7:04

and then of course in In for me

7:06

I'm saying it, it becomes slang for death

7:09

and so they yes they will kind of

7:11

a dog. Might they all own That

7:13

Must be safe. Exactly as it.

7:15

Is so I actually think probably find

7:18

out of six because sir he got

7:20

months straight away. So we're yeah all

7:22

these people are named or nicknamed month.

7:25

So. Just okay. Question

7:28

three: To the Midlands and this

7:30

has been devised by Die Okay. so

7:32

in A nor it's one of our

7:35

regulars and in those listening to some

7:37

pieces of nice it now will you

7:39

listen? I want you think Bent Daniels

7:41

question which is why might all of

7:44

these lead to recognition? by

7:56

law will me

7:58

ah And her mother comes

8:01

to It's

8:03

a tootsy-dah Till

8:06

her mother comes to So

8:24

you heard three pieces of music and

8:26

the question is Why

8:28

might they all lead to

8:31

recognition? Starting

8:33

with what we know, which is in the minority

8:35

I have to say The

8:37

last piece of music was the opening of Mercury

8:40

from the planets by Gustav Holst, 150

8:42

years old this year And

8:44

Mercury is the winged messenger So,

8:48

I'm trying to think of how Mercury

8:50

would lead to

8:52

recognition Well what leads

8:54

to recognition generally? In the world of

8:56

the arts? Oh, sort of, oh, oh,

8:59

awards Sort

9:01

of like honours Oh,

9:05

the Mercury music prize, OK So

9:09

we need two other

9:11

music prizes So the

9:15

second piece they're not

9:17

quite sure, something from the twenties or thirties

9:19

sounded like What

9:22

could we be looking at there, music prizes?

9:25

Well we've got Grammys, was

9:27

it a Grammy? No, it's

9:29

a pretty important prize Named

9:35

after Oh, no,

9:37

no, no, no, no, no, no It

9:41

was a song by Ivan Novello So

9:45

that just leaves you with the first piece of music Which

9:49

sounded sort of electronic or even natural

9:51

harmonics It's sixties-ish

9:57

There is an electronic sort of one

9:59

isn't there? It's not anything to do with Delia

10:01

Derbyshire, is it? Sort of pioneering

10:03

electrical problems. Well, you're kind of in

10:05

the right area there. It was

10:07

a woman. Yeah. Like

10:11

many of her generation somewhat

10:13

overlooked. Yeah. Where might

10:16

that sort of music have emerged from? From

10:18

the Radio Phonic Workshop. It's the BBC Radio Phonic Workshop. The

10:20

Radio Phonic Workshop. Yeah. Ah,

10:22

so the other composer. An other composer. An

10:24

other composer. Exactly. The other female

10:26

composer. No, no, there were lots of them.

10:29

She gave her name to some awards

10:32

inaugurated in 2017, named after her, recognising

10:35

emerging talent amongst women and

10:37

gender minority artists working

10:39

in innovative music and sound art.

10:42

Can't recall any sound. No, pioneering electronic

10:44

composer Daphne Orem.

10:47

Daphne Orem. Co-founder

10:49

of the BBC's Radio Phonic Workshop. Anyway,

10:53

you did correctly identify

10:56

the Planet Suite, the

10:58

third movement, Mercury. And

11:00

that, of course, took us to the Mercury Prize.

11:03

And then, of course, we had the Iver Novello,

11:05

one of the best known names in popular music

11:07

in Britain in the first half of the 20th

11:09

century. And her mother

11:12

came to from 1921, sung here

11:14

by Jack Buchanan, for

11:16

whom it was originally written. And

11:18

the awards recognised excellence in songwriting. You

11:21

got the Mercury straight away, but I did have

11:23

to help you on the Iver Novello and you

11:25

didn't get Daphne Orem. So, yeah, I think three

11:28

out of six for that.

11:32

Question four, the South of England,

11:34

the Hasmonean Dynasty, the

11:37

sweetest innovation of Catherine de

11:39

Medici, Yankee Doodle's feathered

11:41

cap, and somewhere you'd go to

11:44

gamble in China. Shouldn't they

11:46

be Scottish? So, I'll

11:48

just repeat that. The Hasmonean Dynasty, the

11:51

sweetest innovation of Catherine de Medici,

11:54

Yankee Doodle's feathered cap, and

11:56

somewhere you'd go to gamble

11:58

in China. shouldn't they

12:00

be Scottish? She wrote

12:03

backwards. Yeah that's somewhere

12:05

you'd go to gamble in China would be

12:08

Macau. Yep. And

12:10

Yankee Doodle put a feather in his cap

12:12

and called it Macaroni. Yes.

12:14

Which makes us think that Macan

12:17

Scottish might be a link. Yes.

12:19

These are non-scottish things that begin

12:21

with the word Mac. Absolutely.

12:24

So the sweetest innovation of

12:26

Catherine to Medici would be

12:29

a Macaroon. That's right. She

12:31

invented the famous Macau

12:33

to France from Venice

12:37

when she married Henry II

12:39

in 1533. Which leads

12:41

us to the first clue, the

12:44

Hasmonean dynasty. Got

12:46

one shot at a six here. It's got to

12:48

guess something that

12:50

begins with M-A-C. Um

12:52

so I'm going to guess because it's got a biblical

12:55

sound to it. The Maccabees?

12:57

Yes. Well done. The

13:01

Hasmonean dynasty ruled Judea in the

13:03

first and second centuries. Uh BC

13:05

it was founded by members of

13:08

the Maccabee family whose most famous member

13:10

was Judas Maccabees of

13:12

Handel Oratario fame. Um

13:15

yes so you're absolutely right

13:17

all the names begin with

13:19

Mac but was nothing Scottish

13:22

about uh the Maccabees, the

13:24

Macarons of Catherine Medici or

13:27

indeed um Yankee Doodle's Feather

13:29

Cat. And of course the

13:31

former Portuguese colony of Macau, now a

13:33

special administrative province of China in its

13:36

one country two systems agreement, is basically

13:38

the sort of the Las Vegas of

13:41

the east. It's sometimes patronizingly known us because

13:43

in fact it's much bigger I think than

13:45

Las Vegas. I think the world's largest casino

13:48

destination. So as we

13:50

go to question five the south of

13:52

England are just a nose

13:54

ahead in this uh this race. Midlands

13:58

here you go with the next Question. Why?

14:00

Do Stravinsky's Operatic

14:02

Turk. An. Artistic

14:05

hobby horse. Elliot's

14:07

and an Ottoman loyal to.

14:10

To appear to be pulled

14:12

in a lava flow at

14:14

why do Stravinsky's operatic took

14:16

an artistic hobbyhorse. Elliot's and

14:18

an awesome and roiled Susa

14:20

appears be caught in a

14:22

lava flow. Was

14:24

tense. The road signs for for

14:26

operas boots the one which has

14:29

a certain he sees these the

14:31

race progress in which young Tom

14:33

right well as of madewell one

14:35

of the things Tom gets up

14:37

to his he ends up marrying

14:39

baobab attacks notwithstanding the southern sea

14:41

a bearded lady which causes an

14:43

amount of costing some for doing

14:45

that said baba we think is

14:47

what can be helpful here. And

14:49

own. And. Then the artistic

14:51

hobby horse we think is

14:54

referring. To the early twentieth century

14:56

aren't Lisbon.eyes and Out Sex? It's

14:58

name from data the yes French

15:01

word for a hobby horse. And

15:03

Casserly it's cool says they late lead

15:06

singer of Saddam Amazon The Path also

15:08

known as Mama Cass. So

15:10

we've got actually be gone.

15:13

Baba data Mama and Papa

15:15

com said the Ottoman rule

15:17

cheetah needs to be. In

15:21

the same linguistic form and that

15:23

is a little more challenging. And

15:27

then why they might have kids? Because in

15:29

a lava flow will be several repeated syllables

15:31

and sort of looks like they're floating along.

15:34

But I think we need something more specific

15:36

than that. really? You scrabble players that. Ah,

15:39

Yes, I'm

15:41

still looking for would not

15:43

beloved of scrambled say okay

15:46

so. That as useful the little

15:48

ones would issue a society where

15:50

he said that, say so are

15:52

we. Brought. Be

15:55

subscriber was. Yelling says

15:57

good Millions of football us.

16:00

How powerful below? Goggles: A

16:02

thing of it is a was different from

16:04

really tiny ones on a related in those

16:06

little nooks and crannies in the scrabble board.

16:08

I was he sort of the to letter

16:10

yeah I see someone gets all these woods

16:12

a guy. So. We

16:15

just get back down here to to to for I

16:17

can give you a little clue on that. The. An

16:19

awesome and royal to see. Just like has

16:21

sort of generic term for that. I'm. Yes

16:23

if it's assessment was assigned to tease her prince

16:26

he was known as a and it as it

16:28

sounds like a tele Toby. Character: Lala

16:30

Really at the hands of right

16:32

imperial mouth shut and as I

16:34

say. In it is singing lessons,

16:36

It was presented itself of an awesome

16:39

in Love. But

16:41

we're still miss seeing that the lava

16:43

flows the you should be able to

16:45

Gg said from the. Scrabble clue.

16:50

Because it is really about confidence and vowels

16:52

and says he'll. It's.

16:55

It's not. Would you be good? We take the

16:57

fight. the first half of us more than the

16:59

second off the last word. Top Bama. Know

17:02

I'm going to give it to you at

17:04

sea and in the air and geology. The

17:06

Hawaiian word ah double a. Is used

17:08

to describe lava flows that have

17:11

a rough bubbly surface. I mentioned.

17:13

In. The Hawaiian. they're caught. A

17:15

few words, Different lava flows.

17:17

Sussex. I'm okay. so let's

17:20

let's say let's break this

17:22

down. You as

17:24

straightaway got Stravinsky's Operatic at

17:26

Work or which doesn't dataset

17:28

the Bearded Lady bubba the

17:30

Church and Rakes Progress and

17:32

he straight away got the

17:34

Da Da movement. Which is the French word

17:36

for. Hobby Horse and you

17:38

correctly identified Elliott who in

17:40

a had tragically so life's

17:42

with name from Singing with

17:45

the Mamas and Papas but

17:47

you did get stuck on

17:49

the Ottoman Empire ruled seats

17:51

that the law law and

17:53

am you didn't get the

17:55

lava flows So I would

17:57

say for. Out of six. that

18:00

question. Now

18:03

south of England this is question

18:05

six for you. We are

18:07

going to play you one piece

18:10

of music. Why

18:12

might you unearth this piece of music? Bathsheba's

18:15

feckless husband and the creator

18:17

of Z-Cars in Hissalic. Now

18:19

but let's hear the music

18:21

for us. So

18:40

the question you need to think about is

18:42

why might you unearth this piece of music,

18:44

they just heard, Bathsheba's feckless husband and the

18:46

creator of Z-Cars at

18:49

Hissalic. Well

18:53

the creator of Z-Cars is Troy

18:55

Kennedy Martin. Yes. And

18:58

Bathsheba's feckless husband is Uriah the

19:00

Hittite. Is

19:02

it not? I think it's another Bathsheba. Oh

19:08

this is far from the mudding crowd

19:10

then presumably. Yes. Yes it's um Sergeant

19:13

Troy. Sergeant Troy. Correct. So it

19:15

is all Troy. Yep Troy Kennedy

19:18

Martin, Sergeant Troy. And Hissalic is

19:21

the archaeological site that Heinrich

19:24

Lehman discovered Troy.

19:26

That's right so that should take

19:28

you to the piece of music. Yes

19:32

indeed it is Hector

19:34

Berlioz's La Troyanne if I remember

19:36

right. Who was

19:38

singing there? You're

19:41

gonna kick yourself when you because it's a

19:43

very familiar voice. Troy

19:46

is the right name for the track and

19:48

it was the highlight of her first album. Sinead

19:51

O'Connor. That's absolutely right. Wow. The

19:54

title is Troy Hissalic is the site

19:56

of the excavation of the ancient city

19:58

of Troy and Sergeant Troy and

20:00

Thomas Hardy's Far from the Mading Cloud is

20:02

the unsuitable husband of the heroine Bathsheba

20:05

Everdeen. He's a dashing swordsman

20:07

and seducer who disappears for six

20:10

years and then dramatically returns from

20:12

the dead and spoiler alert

20:14

is murdered by another of

20:16

Bathsheba's suitors, Farmer Bouldwood. And

20:18

then of course Troy Kennedy

20:20

Martin, creator of Zedcar.

20:22

He also wrote one of, I think, the

20:24

best television series ever, The Edge of Darkness.

20:27

So yeah, if only

20:29

you were a little bit lost by the music, you needed quite

20:31

a lot of help on that. So that takes a couple away.

20:33

And then I did have to give you a bit of help

20:36

with Bathsheba's feckless husband. So

20:39

I think four out of six.

20:43

Back to the Midlands with question seven. This

20:46

is from Isabel Evans in Doon

20:49

in Persia. And she says she's

20:51

finally got around to sending us

20:53

an idea after years of listening

20:55

to RBQ. Thank you, Isabel. Let's

20:58

see what Frankie and Steve make of it. The

21:00

question is, what links a

21:02

Scottish dialect and one used

21:05

by Dante and Petrarch, a

21:08

sporting individual and a chemical bond?

21:10

And why might all of this

21:12

be of interest to a

21:15

hermit near Aleppo? So

21:17

what links a Scottish dialect and

21:19

one used by Dante and Petrarch,

21:21

a sporting individual and a chemical

21:23

bond? And why might all of

21:25

this interest a hermit near Aleppo?

21:29

So well, there's many Scottish dialects.

21:31

But the one we think is

21:33

of interest here is Doric, which

21:36

I believe is spoken as a native tongue

21:38

by the singer Emily Sande, interestingly.

21:41

But the reason we think that is because

21:43

we think we are dealing with columns here.

21:46

So it's a sporting individual,

21:50

Lots and lots of sort of early sports

21:52

club were called Corinthians. It was Corinthian casuals

21:54

who played in football and it was the

21:56

Corinthian ideal that you would kind of the

21:58

idea of, you know, purity of. Mind

22:00

and body and it would make young men.

22:02

Three months ago and I'm It builds pieces

22:04

in the trenches and says or more that

22:07

kind of idea but it's the currency and

22:09

Ideal is once referred to in terms of

22:11

sporting and. It will then sell political to.

22:14

Europe and the Mj. And been

22:16

used by Dante and that sort. then.

22:20

We. Come back about. The At. Ss

22:23

that say the chemical bond Well as

22:25

I recall from Merge, he says a

22:27

double science. They are two types of

22:29

chemical. Bundle Case Island and eye on

22:31

it was unimpressed A West yesterday So this

22:33

is it's just a which has excited to

22:36

it Illinois Manish ironically and and yes that

22:38

and the versions and the reason these would

22:40

be been stewart to have been near Aleppo.

22:43

This is a reference to earning since a

22:45

lot of Muscle Beach Wells we things casino

22:47

who sat on top of a column. He

22:49

was a stoic philosopher and some kind. I

22:52

think people don't talk to him and I

22:54

suppose possum of a sandwich or something. I'm

22:56

us but he sat up there. No no

22:58

no mention of bodily fluids. Old David

23:00

Blaine kind of semesters run up the

23:03

South of Us decades that Cecilia. To

23:05

didn't quite get the nine right name might

23:07

be you at said it's it's it's it's

23:09

This is Simon Stymied Sees who spent thirty

23:11

seven years since sitting on top of a

23:13

column. So we

23:15

just need to the the darling to the

23:17

disease by dancing petroglyph were writing this on.

23:19

It's in the sort of buzzing fourteenth century

23:22

is amongst the ah, the style of com.

23:25

Era lot to think where they came

23:27

from. what would that select speed that

23:29

they would have spoken well sort of

23:31

Florida A Tuscan is asked us get

23:34

Hoskins can cause problems like exactly that

23:36

spot on said these are all clues

23:38

to types of pillar will call in

23:40

classical architecture so you have door it.

23:43

Am. And then you have the

23:45

that Tuscan dialects and Corinthians keen

23:47

amateur sportsmen and the chemical Bond

23:50

eye on it. So I think

23:52

five out of six for that

23:54

one. But others so

23:56

quick cuts the keeps. South

23:58

of England. This our final question
