This is the quiz in which two teams of two are tested on their knowledge of the past one hundred years of news archive. We've sifted through the BBC's rich, varied and somewhat overflowing historical news cupboards and unearthed some absolute gems. Like this recording of a BBC Look North enter Pres doing the journalism equivalent of accidentally calling your teacher mum . Let's take a listen. Well, that's all from us tonight. Look North is back in BBC Breakfast from six hundred twenty five. Good boy. Yes, that was presenter Gemma Dawson in may twenty twenty three. Good girl . So onto the quiz and our contestants. Do they know their dimblebee from their dusette, their cook from their Coonsberg, their B roll from their Lu Roll . Let's find out team one, please introduce yourselves. Hello, I'm Phil. I'm from Pocklington in East Yorkshire. I enjoy quizzes and playing in bands. And I am for a few more weeks a very long serving school teacher. We thank you for your service. Well done. That's all the parents going. I couldn't do that. Lovely Phil and now let's hear from Adrian. I'm Adrian. I'mne also from Poglington, but originally from London. I'm a railway conductor. I also like quizzing, but I like to travel and I also like going to gigs. Well, you've traveled to come to this quiz. We thank you for it. So now let's meet Teen two. Hello. I'm Anne. I'm from Barnesley, South Yorkshire, and I enjoy music, quizzing and walking my dog. Oh, lovely, what's your dog called? Daisy. Hello, Daisy, good girl. Good girl. And Ian. I'm Ian. I'm originally from little village outside Southampton Lyndhurst in the New Forest , but I now live in Barnesley and I'm a retired teacher. I did my forty years . Fabulous. Welcome all , and over the next half an hour you'll be hearing sound clips of stories from the past century and answering questions based on and around them. Conferring is allowed, we'll be keeping score and the winning team will receive the coveted prize of a Deja News trophy in time honored Quiz tradition, we'll start with round one. This is Name That Event and it's open to both teams. You'll hear an archive clip . Please buzz in as soon as you recognise it. Tell me what the news story is and what year it took place. Two points for the event and a bonus point for the year. Get the event right and you'll win the chance to answer follow up questions which are worth a point each, and those will be open to just your team. If no one identifies a clip correctly then the follow up questions are for everyone to buzz in. So fingers on buzzers and let's listen to the first clip. They will still need exit visas to travel, but district offices have been issued with instructions to speed up procedures. Private visits are to be allowed without applicants having to complete questions. Team one. Phil has buzzed in Phil. What is that event? That will be the fall of the Berlin Wall, I suspect and I think in nineteen eighty nine. You are absolutely right on both counts. Well . Here are your follow up questions just for your team . Which American pop star perform ed atop the partially demolished Berlin Wall on New Year's Eve, nineteen eighty nine? What Michael Jackson even do that? No, it's Michael Bolton . Michael Bolton. Try him. Try him. Which one? Jackson? Jackson? Yes. What's one Michael Jackson? You're going for Michael Jackson. It was not Michael Jackson , but it was somebody almost as legendary. It was David Hassel . Of course it was . Never mind. You have two more follow up questions. The next one is After the Fall of the Berlin Wall, a group of people emerged who were given the name Mauer Schecter. That's M A U R SP E C H T E M AUR SPECTER were they doing? Well, Mauer is German for wall, so I was spectacular and there were probably people who had taken trunks off to try and sell it. And would that make sense? Well, yeah, it's so I think probably people who were taking trunks of wool to sell. You're absolutely right, well done . The literal translation of Mao Spectre is Wall Woodpeckers, which is a lovely little ridge. Isn't that sweet? So your final follow up question, what was the name of the German politician whose misspoken answer at a november nineteen eighty nine press conference forced the government to open the Berlin wall sooner than planned? It was a spokesperson who just read out a memo that hadn't been approved , but I can't remember his name. Not the chancellor. His wasn't it? So Honor, Eric Eric a. A very educated guess but wrong, I'm afraid . It was a man called Gunter Shabovsky. He said the wall would be open effective immediately with out delay, which caused people to storm it and they had to open it. So you might say he jumped the Gunter . Okay, so we are now going to move on to our second clip which is open to both teams to buzz in again. We want the event and then I'll ask you for the year for a bonus fastest fingers first . Nearly all of the eight thousand Americans on the base stayed up to watch the speech on television in the early hours of this morning. His picture is still on display in the wing headquarters building at the top of the Air Force Chain of Command. It'll only come down when there's an official order from the Pentagon. That is Adrian. The resignation of Richard Nixon. You are spot on. For a bonus, give me the year. In nineteen seventy four. It was nineteen seventy four, well done, so team one win the follow up questions. Mark Felt was the associate director of the FBI and a key figure in the Watergate scandal. What was his nickname? He was deep throat and deep throat. He was deep throat, indeed. Which actor portrayed deep throat in the nineteen seventy six film All The President's Men? Redford and Dustin Hoffman played Woodward Bernstein th,ough, so who was who was a film? I have seen the film but some time ago and I can't remember who played, who played felt? So we got to go for an early sympties. Yes, actor. Charlton Heston I mean, he enhances any film that he's in, but sadly not. The correct answer was Hal brook. Had his first Oscar nomination in two thousand seven for Into the Wild when he was eighty two. It's never too late, guys , never too late. Okay, your last question on that clip. A month after Nixon resigned, he was pardoned for all the offences against the United States he has committed or may have committed by whom? That was G thatenerald G Ford?erald Ford? Yes, absolutely, Gerald Ford. Well done there. Right. We are now going to move on to our third and final clip in this round. Again, open to both teams to buzz in. We want the event and then the year for a bonus. The news was so momentous that US TV networks interrupted coverage of Donald Trump's cabinet meeting to tell their viewers. Posting on Instagram in a dead pan caption, your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married. Nothing is blank looks all around. I can tell you that was the engagement of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey , which was twenty twenty five . Okay, so the follow ups are now open to everybody, so fingers on buzzers for this one. Taylor Swift's fiance plays American football for which oh okay first pus team one to the buzzer Kansas City Chiefs It was the Kansas City Chiefs that is correct for your team. What's the title of Swift's twelfth studio album released in twenty twenty five featuring songs believed by fans to reference her relationship with Kelsey? That is Adrian. I'll have a guess that I think they was called the Earas Tour, so was the album called Earas? It was not, but well done for correctly identifying something about Taylor Swedes I can tell you it was the life of a showgirl. Now the final question fingers on buzzers Which public figure who months earlier had posted on social media I hate Taylor Swift congratulated the couple on their engagement We're going back to team one, Adrian. Donald Trump. It was Donald Trump . Let's have our first look at the scores now. So team one have eleven points and team two still to get off the mark . Well done all in its still very early days. Let's move on to round two, non stop vox pop. In this round, teams will take it in turns to listen to members of the public talking about an event from the VoxPop archives. You'll hear three different members of the public describing the same event , but what is it? If you get it right after the first clip, you get the maximum of three points. If you get it right after the second clip you get two points and I'm fairly sure you'll have worked this out by now. If you need to hear the third clip to get it right you will get one point . So team one ac,cepted numerical order dictates that you're going first. So here come vox pops . Indeed, I've never worn it before. Something never worn before? No, no , I don't think so. No. Okay, so clip number two . There's another decrease in the amount of accidents . It wouldn't be the introduction of seatbelts, would it? Ooh, try that. The introduction of seatbelts. That I can tell you is the correct answer. Well done, it was when front seatbelts became compulsory. nineteen eighty three. Now we turn to team two. Here come your non stop vox pops. Let's hear the first one. Today we had a really stupid day. We had kitchen and tested for dinner and scream cakes for tea were quite overwhelming. I would give the coronation of the Queen. Yes . Okay, well I can tell you it was not that but it doesn't matter because you can hear your next clip. This is clip number two. Well, I can save you quite a lot of hard work in front of me, but utter sense of relief that the whole thing is over . Possibly the street parties at the end of World War two. VE Day ? VE Day is absolutely right. Congratulations . At the end of round two , team one have thirteen points and team two have two points Ever invest in something that seemed incredible at first, but didn't live up to the hype, like those five dollars roses at a gas station, or a second hand piece of technology that breaks in the first ten minutes . Marketers know that feeling. We optimize for the numbers that look great, impressions, reach and reacts , but when they don't show revenue, well, that's a not so great conversation with the CFO .

We've taken three historical audio clips from the same decade and jumbled up the order. Your job is to listen and arrange them neatly and chronologically like a sort of radio archive version of Stacey Solomon sought your life out. So team one you are, in the lead Phillenadrian. You get to choose would you like the nineteen seventies or the twenty ten s? nineteen seventies It was quite unanimous . Okay , listen to these three clips, work out each event and the year it happened and then tell me the order they happened in. So there are three points available for a correctly ordered decade and a further three points for correctly naming the event in each clip. We're gonna start with your three clips from the nineteen seventies. This is what we're calling clip A . La Chance Ganyard , the Concord Elvis Comp Alec ano . Okay, that was your first clip if you want to make a note of what you think that is and roughly when you think it happened that might help you order it within the decade . We're going to play you clip B now . But today we pay tribute to a very great man , a great Frenchman and a statesman of world renown. Okay, that was clip B, so have a little jot down of what you think it is and roughly when you think it happened and finally we're going to play you clip C. Mrs. Brown and her daughter are both resting peacefully in the Marin Maternity Unit here at Olden General Hospital. At their bedside, the proud father, Mr. John Brown, who admitted he was close to tears when the child they had both wanted for nine years was eventually placed in his arms. Right, those are all three of your clips so you, need to tell me which order do you think they belong in and what they were? Well, the three clips we think probably are the death of President De Gaulle in France , which would have been it's the first one it's e seitherventy or seventy one. The second one I think is Abby winning Eurobis in seventy four and then the first test tube baby Louise Brown in nineteen seventy eight. Okay, so your order is BAC. Correct. And you are absolutely correct. The death Ch ofarles DeGal was indeed nineteen seventy. We heard Edward Heath there talking about it, then Abb won the Eurovision in nineteen seventy four and the first human conceived via IVF was born in nineteen seventy eight as you said. So Ian and Anne, you've got three tips from the twenty ten S. This is Clip A . The heavy thrill of victory doesn't last long. The business of government never really stopped, and the president's now back in the White House. David Cameron was one of twelve foreign leaders the president called after they congratulated him. Just have to work out what you think it is and roughly where in the decade you think it occurred. Lovely, let's move on to clip B . I live in the suburb and I could see the fire from where I live because we live on top of a hill and I could see the fire from the outskirts of Paris. How did you feel seeing it on fire? Oh horrible . I felt sad . Okay, that's clip B so have a think about where that might go and then we're going to play you clip C. The new titles, the gown, the landow, the uniforms, the kiss, the fly past, the flowers . It was all designed to mix history and modernity, royal heritage and fresh beginnings. She is the modern equivalent of Cinderella Rapunzel's sleeping beauty the woodcutter's daughter. I think Kirsty Walt might have been describing me there So that was clip C, so you just need to tell me what events from the twenty ten's you think you heard and the order you think they belong in. Right, okay. The first one we believe was the election of Donald Trump in twenty sixteen. The third one we believe was about the marriage of William and Kate in twenty eleven and the middle one was definitely the burning of Notre Dame and I was on holiday in the new forest at the time in a caravan. All good to know Ian all very good to know William and Kate first, notre Dam second, Trump third. So CBA. Yeah. Okay. I'm afraid that's not the correct order. It was CAB. You are correct to identify the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton in twenty eleven . But it was Obama being re elected for his second term in twenty twelve and then the Notchdam Fire twenty nineteen. So not a clean sweep, but there were some points gained there, so well done. Yeah , we can see what that has done to the scores. It now means that team one, Phil and Adrian have nineteen points and Ian and An aron four well done . So next up it's the round that we have outsourced to you our lovely listener and we',ve named it in perhaps one of the most tortuous rhymes ever broadcast listenery history . Teams, you will take it in turns as we play clips of our listeners describing a news event from their lifetime that they've sent to Dejah news by voice note. You can have one point for each event you name correctly. So team one, Phillip and Adrian, this is Harriet, Age seven from Warwick . What news event is she talking about? It was a big event . There was lots of people there and were very busy so they fly planes with coloured fumes at their back across the sky there was a street party. I had a picture taken beside a cardboard cutout . Beautifully described by Harriet, but what was it? There are two possibilities aren't there. It's either the Jubilee in twenty twenty two or the coronation in twenty twenty. three. Should have been three in twenty twenty two? Charles' coronation. Yeah. Absolutely. Right. Right. You'll go team two. This is some slightonely older. This is Bill, he's sixty eight and he's from Lanakshire. I saw my pal's big sister at the gate. She was cropper crying. I asked what was wrong and she looked at me like I should already know . She said the singer had died, the one everybody's mom liked. My mom didn't like any singers . Elvis . We'll go for the death of Elvis Presley in nineteen seventy seven. You are absolutely correct. My mum didn't like him either, but so we go back to team one . This is Will . He is forty three and he lives in Manchester . Let's have a listen and tell me what you think he's describing Phil and Adrian. When it happened, it was all anybody could talk about . And of course, in like typical nineties fashion, the reaction one was just a pure misogyny . And then you couldn't watch any like late night TV show comedian without some gross jokes about dry cleaning. Is this Monica Lewinsky Bill Clinton? So it sounds like Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton to be honest. It was the Lewinsky Clinton scandal in nineteen ninety eight. Now it's back over to Ian and Team two. This is Louise . She's forty one. She lives in Sheffield. What's the news event she's talking about? I woke up during the school holidays and put a TV on and the only channel not sharing breaking news was sharing teletubbies. So Louise , who's forty one and lives in Sheffield , what was she talking about? Yep. The death of Princess Diana. You are absolutely right and well done forgetting that. Points scored in that round by both teams, so I can tell you the scores now are team one Phill and Adrian have twenty one and team two in and have six well done all It's our penultimate round now by numbers. Here the contestants will take it in turns to test not just their history skills but also their arithmetic. We've given the teams a pen and paper but no calculators allowed, mostly because we worry they'll get distracted by the temptation to spell out the word boobies . We've all done it . You will hear three audio clips and you'll need to work out the numbers needed to do the sum we give you. To be clear, the correct answer will always be a whole number, no fractions and years are in four figures . Okay . You might want to shift your brains up a gear because this is the difficult round. So if you give me the correct answer, you will get five points . Team one, Philanadrian, here comes your historical calculation . Firstly, I want you to take the year that the actor in clip one first appeared in a career defining role. They were difficult to play with Clayton because they're not you're not looking into human eyes, you know what I mean? You're looking at a metal object moving about with a voiceover. Okay, that was your first clip and we are looking for the year in which the actor in that clip first appeared in a career defining role . Okay? So that's the first number you have to work with. Then you need to take that number and divide it by the year the historic agreement in clip number two took place. Lord Hume on the right hand side of the picture has just signed. Mr Grimico on the left, this happened in a flash even quick as we could leave the tennis of Wimbled on. Okay, so that's another year that we're looking for there and you need to divide the first year by the second year . And finally, you need to add the number in the line of succession to the throne the person, in clip number three is at the time of recording. It was almost impossible for me to to sweat So you need to take the year from your answer to clip one, divide it by the year in clip two, and add your answer to the number from clip three. I think number one might have been Richard Attenberg talking about Jurassic Park . Possibly. So we've got George one , Charlotte and Louis , and then you've got Harry and he's got two children, hasn't he? So one, two, three, four, five . Six the six and what about Princess Anne? No, male . So add it onto that shall we go for eight. We're going for eight then. Ah, I'm afraid you're one out . Click number one was William Hartnell. The first doctor being very grumpy about working with the Dalek , so Doctor Who was launched in nineteen sixty three . The second one was the partial nuclear test ban treaty was signed in nineteen sixty three. That was Richard Dimbleby commentating on the signing of the treaty and clip number three was a legendary interview and Andrew is eight in the line of succession. So the correct answer was nine . You forgot about William. Don't forget about William. He's very much like Dre in that respect. Team two, it's time for your numbers. So what I want you to do is take the year that the event in clip number one happened. You have the political leaders connected with paramilitary groups on both sides of the community. You have the leader of mainstream unionism. You have the leader of mainstream nationalism . All of this comes together on a day. I think you have to say it's historic . Okay, so the year from that clip is what you're going to work with as your first number . And then you need to take that number and divide it by the number of times the president in clip number two has been impeached . Boy, boy , is there any place that's more fun , more exciting and safer than a Trump rally . So you need to take the year from clip one and divide it by the number of times the president in clip number two has been impeached then add the age of Queen Elizabeth in clip number three. I here present unto you Queen Elizabeth your undoubted queen , wherefore all you who come this day to do your homage and service , are you willing to do the same? That's not in fifty three. So she's twenty seven . Yeah. Trump's been impeached twice . So it's what he was for the agreement. Was it two thousand? I think it's two thousand . So we reckon it's the year two thousand divided by two is a thousand plus the queen's age was twenty seven makes a thousand and twenty seven. Oh , some great working out, but I'm afraid you are one out of that. It was the Good Friday Agreement nineteen ninety eight. You divide that by two , you get nine hundred and ninety nine and Queen Elizabeth was twenty seven. nine ninety nine plus twenty seven of course gives you one thousand twenty six . Well you need to have a look at the scores before we go into the final round, team one are on twenty one and team two are on six points . Our final round is called Three Little Words. You will hear snippets of famous speeches which we have cut off mid sentence. We want you to tell us the correct final three words. This involves both general knowledge and a bit of educated guesswork because you can buzz in as soon as you like if you think you know what the final three words will be. It's a quick fire round. Every clip is open to both teams and you get one point if all three words are exactly correct and they must be exact . Fingers on buzzers teams, here we go. If the British empire and its commonwealth lasts for a thousand that is Adrian. Their finest hour? Their finest hour is correct.. Clip two In Springfield , they're eating the dogs, the people that came in. They're there we go team two. Cats and dogs. Oh , it's not exactly correct. I'm afraid it was eating the cats. That was Trump in twenty twenty four . Next clip. Ask me my three main priorities for government. That was Adrian. Education, education, education. Education, yes. But not even one of the teachers getting that, that's great. So only there in ' ninety six, okay, next clip. I shouldn't be up here . I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean . Yet you all come to us young people
