0:00:04 > 0:00:09These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:09 > 0:00:16Together, they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to a celebrity edition of Eggheads,

0:00:26 > 0:00:33where a team of five challengers pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:33 > 0:00:39You might recognise them, as they've won some of the toughest quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.

0:00:39 > 0:00:41Taking on our champions...

0:00:41 > 0:00:44After scouring his address book,

0:00:44 > 0:00:51Nicky Campbell recruited four friends who he considers to have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:00:51 > 0:00:56- Let's meet them.- I'm Nicky Campbell. I'm a broadcast and journalist.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00I'm Shelagh Fogerty and I'm a journalist and broadcaster.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03I'm Robert Harley. I'm a writer and actor.

0:01:03 > 0:01:08I'm Jonathan Maitland. I'm a journalist, presenter and author.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12I'm Fiona Foster. I'm a broadcaster and journalist.

0:01:12 > 0:01:17Welcome, Live Five. Are you mad? Do you know what you're taking on?

0:01:17 > 0:01:20It's formidable, an incredible challenge.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23These people are amazing.

0:01:23 > 0:01:27In a small way, we can do an Accrington Stanley.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29We can do a giant-killing act.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32- We can do a Scotland.- Thank you(!)

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Always the analogy.

0:01:34 > 0:01:41We've got a secret weapon there in Jonathan Maitland who, in another life, would be over there.

0:01:41 > 0:01:46You think you've got the categories covered, what might come up?

0:01:46 > 0:01:48You've got different talents?

0:01:48 > 0:01:53- I'm a pop music anorak. - A little bit?- A little bit.

0:01:53 > 0:01:59In the '90s, Fiona and I used to go to a quiz in Clapham Junction.

0:01:59 > 0:02:04Pop music was...certainly kind of high on my agenda.

0:02:04 > 0:02:09- Fiona, was he insufferable?- You've never met anyone more competitive!

0:02:09 > 0:02:13- Apart from Nicky! - Shall we put it to the test?

0:02:13 > 0:02:15Let's get the gloves off.

0:02:15 > 0:02:20Every day, there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers' charity.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24If they fail, the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:24 > 0:02:28Live Five, as this is the first of our celebrity specials,

0:02:28 > 0:02:32£1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36Our first head-to-head battle is going to be music.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Jonathan!

0:02:38 > 0:02:42We're going to keep Jonathan. He's our secret weapon.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44- Ah.- For the end, so, music.

0:02:44 > 0:02:49I work with Nicky. He knows every song lyric there ever was.

0:02:49 > 0:02:55And sings them a lot. It's clear who's going to do music for us.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57I'm going to fall flat on my face.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00OK, Nicky. Who do you want to play?

0:03:00 > 0:03:05I would like to play against the one and only..

0:03:05 > 0:03:09- AS JIMMY SAVILE:- Dame Judith Keppel.

0:03:09 > 0:03:15- LAUGHING:- ..As they've dubbed you. I've been trying for years - Dame Judith Keppel.

0:03:15 > 0:03:21Nicky Campbell and Millionaire winner Judith into the question room, pease.

0:03:21 > 0:03:28- Nicky, challengers choose. Do you want to go first or let Judith start?- I'll go first.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35Hoping to put a score on the board. Nicky, your question.

0:03:35 > 0:03:41In which year was Lulu the joint winner of the Eurovision Song Contest with Boom Bang-A-Bang?

0:03:45 > 0:03:50# It's such a lovely feeling

0:03:50 > 0:03:53# Having you so near. #

0:03:53 > 0:03:561969.

0:03:56 > 0:04:01It's straight in there, Nicky. Yes, good start.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04I see what you have to put up with!

0:04:04 > 0:04:09Judith's question. A modern orchestral trumpet has how many valves?

0:04:11 > 0:04:15- I'm thinking what it looks like. - Trumpet-shaped!

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Trumpet-shaped!

0:04:17 > 0:04:20I'm trying to have a picture.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22I think it's three or four.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27- Four.- Four?- Yup.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30A modern orchestral trumpet has...

0:04:30 > 0:04:32three valves.

0:04:32 > 0:04:37Great start for Nicky and the Live Five.

0:04:37 > 0:04:43Chance for a 2-0 lead. Call The Shots and Sexy! No No No

0:04:43 > 0:04:46were hit singles for which group in 2007?

0:04:50 > 0:04:55I've taken my eye off music a bit in the last few years.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Um... I would say...

0:04:59 > 0:05:02..it's the Sugababes.

0:05:02 > 0:05:06- Sugababes. Your favourite, Chris. - As if!

0:05:06 > 0:05:10Always the Sugababes catch you out.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13They caught you out, Nicky. It's Girls Aloud.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16Call The Shots and Sexy! No No No.

0:05:16 > 0:05:21But Judith's already got one wrong so it's not terminal.

0:05:21 > 0:05:25Judith still has to get this just to catch up.

0:05:25 > 0:05:30Joanne Catherall and Susan Sulley were vocalists with which band?

0:05:33 > 0:05:36I've absolutely no idea.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39You know I don't know this kind of thing.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42- What are they called? - Joanne Catherall and Susan Sulley.

0:05:42 > 0:05:48Became famous as vocalists with which band?

0:05:48 > 0:05:53Perhaps they're not twins, in that case. Oh, God!

0:05:53 > 0:05:59I don't know. Down the middle, for a change. Bananarama.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02Thompson Twins weren't twins,

0:06:02 > 0:06:07but weren't Joanne Catherall and Susan Sulley, either,

0:06:07 > 0:06:10- who were in the Human League.- Oh!

0:06:10 > 0:06:14Nicky retains the lead!

0:06:14 > 0:06:16If you get this, you win the round.

0:06:16 > 0:06:23Which Yorkshire city hosts a prestigious international piano competition every three years?

0:06:25 > 0:06:28- Leeds.- Oh, right.

0:06:28 > 0:06:33Yorkshire city hosts a prestigious international piano competition...

0:06:33 > 0:06:38Leeds. You're through to the final round. Vanquished Judith Keppel.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41Would you both please join your teams?

0:06:43 > 0:06:50Flying start, Live Five. The Eggheads have lost one brain from the final round.

0:06:50 > 0:06:54The Live Five are all there. Next subject, politics. Who want to play?

0:06:54 > 0:06:57It can't be Nicky. Any of the other four.

0:06:59 > 0:07:06- Yeah. I'll go for it. - Who would you like to play against? It can't be Judith.- CJ.

0:07:06 > 0:07:10- Go ahead with CJ. - Get him out the way.

0:07:10 > 0:07:14- I choose...or WE choose CJ. - Sheelagh versus CJ.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18Weakest Link winner, 15 to 1 winner playing politics.

0:07:18 > 0:07:23Could I ask you, please, to take your positions in the question room?

0:07:23 > 0:07:28- Shelagh, will you go first or second?- Second. I need to get used to it.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31CJ, this is your question.

0:07:31 > 0:07:36What term is usually used for the Prime Minister's reorganisation of his Cabinet?

0:07:39 > 0:07:44A few other descriptions pop to mind but you're after "reshuffle".

0:07:44 > 0:07:48Yes, we are. Reshuffle is correct.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Shelagh, first question for you.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54What colour are the leather benches in the House of Commons?

0:07:56 > 0:07:58They are green.

0:07:58 > 0:08:03They are. Well done. Green. Good start. OK, CJ.

0:08:03 > 0:08:09For what does the letter V stand in the political acronym OMOV?

0:08:12 > 0:08:15One member, one vote.

0:08:15 > 0:08:21Vote is correct. Well done, CJ. OK, Shelagh.

0:08:21 > 0:08:28The Peace Palace built by Andrew Carnegie in 1913 is a feature of which Dutch city?

0:08:33 > 0:08:38Give the role The Hague plays, I'm tempted to say The Hague.

0:08:38 > 0:08:44I was in Amsterdam recently and I don't recall the Peace Palace.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47I know nothing about Utrecht so I'm going with The Hague.

0:08:47 > 0:08:52And the Peace Palace is there. Well done, Shelagh. Well worked out.

0:08:54 > 0:08:59Both going well. This next question each could sort out a winner.

0:08:59 > 0:09:05Which Prime Minister's liking for homburg hats led to them being known by his name?

0:09:09 > 0:09:14I think that's Harold Wilson but give me a moment to check.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Not Eden...

0:09:16 > 0:09:20And... I THINK it's Harold Wilson.

0:09:20 > 0:09:25- It's Eden, CJ!- Oh, is it?- Yes. - LAUGHS

0:09:25 > 0:09:29- Macs and pipes, Harold Wilson. - He'll claim he's too young.

0:09:29 > 0:09:34- To remember?- Yeah. - You're an Egghead. You should know.

0:09:34 > 0:09:40Shelagh, a chance to win the round and book your place in the final round.

0:09:40 > 0:09:45What was the first name of the former British Prime Minister Campbell-Bannerman?

0:09:48 > 0:09:50I think it's George.

0:09:50 > 0:09:55- OK.- I don't know, but I think George Campbell-Bannerman.

0:09:55 > 0:10:01It might have been in there, but it's Henry Campbell-Bannerman.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04No damage done. A shot to nothing.

0:10:04 > 0:10:11It stays all square but we go to sudden death so we're removing the multiple choices.

0:10:11 > 0:10:14We've just got to hear answers from you.

0:10:14 > 0:10:20CJ faces the first. Who was the last British Governor of Hong Kong?

0:10:20 > 0:10:24- That would be Chris Patten. - Chris Patten is correct.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27Shelagh.

0:10:27 > 0:10:33Who was elected the First Minister of the Northern Ireland Assembly on 8 May 2007?

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Peter Robinson.

0:10:38 > 0:10:42You see, you know too much, Shelagh.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45It's Ian Paisley - 2007!

0:10:45 > 0:10:52- Paisley stood down to make way for Peter Robinson. That's your in-depth knowledge.- That recently?

0:10:52 > 0:10:56Yeah. They were stuck in aspic for so long with the wrangling.

0:10:56 > 0:11:04Paisley did not remain as First Minister for very long before handing over to Peter Robinson.

0:11:04 > 0:11:10You could have done with less knowledge of Northern Irish politics!

0:11:12 > 0:11:17I'm afraid you're not playing in the final round. CJ, I'm afraid you are!

0:11:17 > 0:11:20Please join your teams.

0:11:20 > 0:11:25The Live Five have lost one brain. The Eggheads have lost one as well.

0:11:25 > 0:11:30Our third category today is sport.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32I suspect there may be some eager takers.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36It's Robert, Jonathan or Fiona to play sport.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40- What are you like at sport? He's good at sport. > - Yeah? O...K.

0:11:40 > 0:11:46- The big man.- Robert, who would you like to play from the Eggheads?

0:11:46 > 0:11:49It's Chris, Daphne or Kevin.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52- She doesn't look like she sits on the stands!- Daphne?

0:11:52 > 0:11:57- LAUGHTER - Do you go to any football matches?

0:11:57 > 0:12:00- No. I watch rugby. - Ah, well. There you are.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04I think Robert versus Daphne is the match of the day.

0:12:04 > 0:12:10Robert and the last woman to win Brain of Britain into the question room, please.

0:12:10 > 0:12:15Robert, would you like to go first or second in sport?

0:12:15 > 0:12:18I'd like to take the first penalty, please.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21Rather appropriately,

0:12:21 > 0:12:24when you hear the question.

0:12:24 > 0:12:30Former England goalkeeper Gordon Banks played for which club between 1959 and 1967?

0:12:33 > 0:12:40Well, my mate Nick Hancock will remind me that he played for Stoke.

0:12:40 > 0:12:44Between those years, he played for Leicester City.

0:12:44 > 0:12:49You're right, Leicester City, while they won the World Cup.

0:12:51 > 0:12:58So, Daphne. The Houston Rockets and Golden State Warriors are leading teams in which US sport?

0:13:01 > 0:13:06SIGHS I HATE American sports.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10Basketball?

0:13:10 > 0:13:13You got it. Basketball is correct.

0:13:13 > 0:13:17In the hoop. Robert's second question.

0:13:17 > 0:13:24Which rugby league club moved from Craven Park to New Craven Park in 1989?

0:13:30 > 0:13:33Rugby league not my speciality.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36I'm going to say...

0:13:38 > 0:13:40Warrington Wolves.

0:13:40 > 0:13:45No. It's not. It's Hull Kingston Rovers.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48Second question to Daphne.

0:13:48 > 0:13:53The great slalom skier Ingemar Stenmark was born in which country?

0:13:57 > 0:13:59Oh!

0:13:59 > 0:14:03I'm hoping, from the sound of his name,

0:14:03 > 0:14:05that he's Swedish.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09Sweden...is correct.

0:14:09 > 0:14:15Ingemar Stenmark born in Sweden. You've got to get this, Robert.

0:14:15 > 0:14:22Which rider won at the Burghley Horse Trials on Priceless, Night Cap and Murphy Himself?

0:14:27 > 0:14:29Um...

0:14:29 > 0:14:30Well...

0:14:31 > 0:14:33I wasn't there.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36- CHUCKLING:- You surprise us(!)

0:14:36 > 0:14:40- I'll have to rely... - Judith probably was.- No idea.

0:14:40 > 0:14:45- Do you like that kind of thing? - Well, quite.- Good.

0:14:45 > 0:14:49Burghley Horse Trials, Priceless, Night Cap and Murphy Himself.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52I think that was Virginia Leng.

0:14:52 > 0:14:58- It WAS. You said that very confidently.- I was kidding you all.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00I WAS there!

0:15:00 > 0:15:03Daphne has a chance to win.

0:15:03 > 0:15:12Daphne, at which weight was Jimmy Ellis, the WBA World Boxing Champion between 1968 and 1970?

0:15:14 > 0:15:19I'm sure he wasn't a heavyweight cos I might have heard of him.

0:15:19 > 0:15:24I haven't heard of him so I'm going to keep my fingers crossed

0:15:24 > 0:15:26and hope he's a featherweight.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28No. Eggheads?

0:15:28 > 0:15:30Heavyweight. Was he?

0:15:30 > 0:15:34- Yeah. Jimmy Ellis.- Oh, no!

0:15:34 > 0:15:36- Sudden death! - Sudden death approaches!

0:15:36 > 0:15:39Yes. It's all-square.

0:15:39 > 0:15:43Robert, I'm taking the choices away.

0:15:43 > 0:15:47Nothing to guess at, should you need to guess!

0:15:47 > 0:15:54A dog named Cobi was the mascot at the Summer Olympic Games in which year?

0:15:54 > 0:15:58Cobi - C-o-b-i.

0:15:59 > 0:16:05Well, it sounds...sounds like it might be a bit...

0:16:06 > 0:16:08..Tokyo.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11- 1964.- OK. '64, Tokyo.

0:16:11 > 0:16:18No, it's not. It's later than that. Do you know, Daphne, if it had been your question?

0:16:18 > 0:16:20- Barcelona?- Barcelona, '92. Yeah.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25A chance to win it, Daphne.

0:16:25 > 0:16:32At which racecourse is the Welsh Grand National run?

0:16:32 > 0:16:34Chepstow?

0:16:36 > 0:16:40It is Chepstow, Daphne. That is correct. You are through.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42Great round. Bad luck, Robert.

0:16:42 > 0:16:47You won't be playing in the final round. Come and join your teams.

0:16:47 > 0:16:52The Eggheads biting back after the first victory by the Live Five.

0:16:52 > 0:16:57Two brains missing from the Live Five and at least one Egghead.

0:16:57 > 0:17:04This is your last chance to even it up in the final round. This one is geography.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07- Jonathan or Fiona to play. - I'll take it.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10- And leave Johnny. - I think. Yeah.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13It's a far, far better thing that I do now!

0:17:15 > 0:17:18I'm happy to give it a go.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20Let's do it!

0:17:20 > 0:17:23- Hold on, Fiona.- Oh, yes! - To compound your problems.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26Kevin or Chris?

0:17:26 > 0:17:30Let's go with Chris. My dad likes Chris. He talks about Chris.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33Let's go for Chris. It'll make my dad proud.

0:17:33 > 0:17:39Fiona and Brain Of Britain, reigning International Mastermind...

0:17:39 > 0:17:43That's getting stale, Dermot. That's 25 years ago.

0:17:43 > 0:17:47- No-one's challenged you for it. - No.- Must set up a competition.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50The question room awaits Fiona and Chris.

0:17:50 > 0:17:54- Do you want to go first or second, Fiona?- I'll go first.

0:17:57 > 0:18:02The African city of Maputo is located on which body of water?

0:18:07 > 0:18:10Obviously, it's not the Mediterranean.

0:18:10 > 0:18:15I'm going to go for the Indian Ocean.

0:18:15 > 0:18:21- When your hands went down the middle, I thought...- The Atlantic!

0:18:21 > 0:18:26- No! We've lit the Indian and it's the right answer!- Oh.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28DERMOT LAUGHS

0:18:28 > 0:18:31Mozambique, isn't it?

0:18:31 > 0:18:38The distinctively shaped Alpine peak the Matterhorn straddles the border between Italy and which country?

0:18:41 > 0:18:45It's not Slovenia. That's over to the east.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48It's not France cos that's over to the west.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52The Matterhorn's on the border of Italy and Switzerland.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54That is correct.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57All too soon, back to you, Fiona.

0:18:57 > 0:19:04In which South American capital city does the street called the Avenida Nueve de Julio

0:19:04 > 0:19:08commemorate National Independence Day?

0:19:11 > 0:19:17- Um... I'm going to say Buenos Aires. - OK.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19Gone for Argentina.

0:19:19 > 0:19:24That's correct. Well done, Fiona. Buenos Aires.

0:19:26 > 0:19:31Chris, which island lies off the tip of the Lleyn peninsula in north Wales?

0:19:34 > 0:19:39It's spelled L-l-e-y-n. Lleyn Peninsula.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42That's Pwllheli and keep going!

0:19:42 > 0:19:47Well, it's not Lundy cos that's in the Bristol Channel.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50It's not Skomer cos that's south Wales.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54It used to be a monastic settlement and it's Bardsey Island.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58Well worked out, Chris. That's the right answer.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Fiona going really strongly!

0:20:00 > 0:20:04It's a great moment for me, being equal with Chris.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Get this and you might put him out.

0:20:07 > 0:20:11The US city of Milwaukee lies in which state?

0:20:14 > 0:20:19- How long did you live in the United States?- Three years.

0:20:19 > 0:20:23- And I'm married to an American. - DERMOT LAUGHS

0:20:23 > 0:20:28- Not from Milwaukee, is he? - He's not. He's from New England.

0:20:28 > 0:20:32Well, um... I'm going to say Wisconsin.

0:20:32 > 0:20:38Probably easier for you if we hadn't given you choices. It's right.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41Three out of three!

0:20:41 > 0:20:48- If my old teacher Mrs Newton could see me now!- She'd be proud. - She'd be flat out on the floor.

0:20:48 > 0:20:55Chris, to save yourself, which country has a coastline on both the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf?

0:20:58 > 0:21:02Jordan's only got a coastline on the Med.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05Yemen's at the bottom of the Arabian Peninsula on the Red Sea.

0:21:05 > 0:21:10The only one with a coastline on both is Saudi Arabia.

0:21:10 > 0:21:15We're going to sudden death. That's the right answer. Fiona's face!

0:21:15 > 0:21:21I think you might be better without the choices. They spread confusion.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24You've just got to tell me this.

0:21:24 > 0:21:31Which Canadian city is located between the Burrard Inlet, an arm of the Strait of Georgia,

0:21:31 > 0:21:34and the delta of the River Fraser?

0:21:34 > 0:21:39Strait of Georgia? How do you spell the inlet?

0:21:39 > 0:21:44Burrard - B-u-r-r-a-r-d. Burrard.

0:21:44 > 0:21:48- Let's say Montreal.- Montreal.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50It's not Montreal.

0:21:50 > 0:21:56It's your first wrong answer. I'll see if he knows. Any idea, Chris?

0:21:56 > 0:22:04- The Canadian Pacific comes down the Fraser River canyon on the way to Vancouver.- On the sea.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06The Strait of Georgia. Vancouver!

0:22:06 > 0:22:09You win it if you get this, Chris.

0:22:09 > 0:22:14Which tourist centre for exploring the Great Barrier Reef

0:22:14 > 0:22:19is located in the far north of Queensland, 850 miles northwest of Brisbane?

0:22:19 > 0:22:24The great tourist centre for that part of the world is Cairns.

0:22:24 > 0:22:29Damn your eyes! It is the right answer. Cairns is correct.

0:22:29 > 0:22:31Bad luck, Fiona.

0:22:31 > 0:22:37You're not playing in the final round. Come and join your teams.

0:22:37 > 0:22:43Bad luck, Fiona. Real chance to make it all square in the final round.

0:22:43 > 0:22:48It's going to be highly competitive, what we've been playing towards, the final round.

0:22:48 > 0:22:54I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't take part.

0:22:54 > 0:23:01Shelagh, Robert and Fiona from the Live Five and Judith from the Eggheads, leave the studio now.

0:23:01 > 0:23:05Nicky and Jonathan, you're playing to win the Live Five £1,000.

0:23:05 > 0:23:11Kevin, CJ, Daphne and Chris, you're playing for something which money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:11 > 0:23:17I'll ask each team three questions, all general knowledge and you are allowed to confer.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20That's the difference with the head-to-heads.

0:23:20 > 0:23:25Live Five, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?

0:23:25 > 0:23:30- Do you want to go first or second? - Shall we go first?- OK.

0:23:32 > 0:23:37First question, Live Five. Good luck, Nicky, Jonathan.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41Gussie Fink-Nottle, Roderick Spode and Sir Watkyn Bassett

0:23:41 > 0:23:43are characters created by which writer?

0:23:46 > 0:23:52Gussie Fink-Nottle, Roderick Spode and Sir Watkyn Bassett.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54Sir Watkyn Bassett?

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Yeah, we'll go with...

0:23:56 > 0:23:59PG Wodehouse.

0:23:59 > 0:24:03That's the right answer. PG Wodehouse.

0:24:03 > 0:24:10Which royal palace is a mixture of Tudor architecture and a renaissance design by Christopher Wren?

0:24:14 > 0:24:16MUMBLE: Hampton Court?

0:24:16 > 0:24:18CJ: It's the only Tudor one.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21That's Hampton Court.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23- Hampton Court?- Yeah.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Is the right answer, Eggheads.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28One each. Nicky and Jonathan.

0:24:28 > 0:24:35Ben Kingsley and which other Oscar-winning actor were born in the Yorkshire resort of Scarborough?

0:24:39 > 0:24:42Ben Kingsley and which other Oscar-winning actor were born

0:24:42 > 0:24:44in the Yorkshire resort of Scarborough?

0:24:44 > 0:24:47It's not Tony, surely.

0:24:47 > 0:24:52Because he is Welsh to his core. Although an American citizen now.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55Was Charles Laughton in Hobson's Choice,

0:24:55 > 0:24:59about a family from the north of England way?

0:24:59 > 0:25:03# She was a working girl north of England way

0:25:03 > 0:25:05# Now she's hit the big time #

0:25:05 > 0:25:07- In the good old... - # USA #

0:25:07 > 0:25:10Go with your instinct.

0:25:10 > 0:25:14- Mine's Laughton.- Laughton as well. That's OUR instinct.

0:25:14 > 0:25:16So we'll go with Laughton.

0:25:16 > 0:25:21- Charles Laughton. Well done.- Get in! - All right, Eggheads. It's 2-1.

0:25:21 > 0:25:23Second question.

0:25:23 > 0:25:29Which artist lived for over 40 years in a farmhouse called Hoglands in Perry Green, Hertfordshire?

0:25:33 > 0:25:36DAPHNE: That's definitely Henry Moore.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39< They've got all the sculptures.

0:25:39 > 0:25:44He left the estate to... OK. Must be. Yup.

0:25:46 > 0:25:50The one who famously lived in Hertfordshire was Henry Moore.

0:25:50 > 0:25:55Correct, Eggheads. Straight back to Jonathan and Nicky.

0:25:55 > 0:26:01If either of you falters on this question, the game will be over.

0:26:01 > 0:26:07Since Edward VII, "the boy" has been a colloquial term for which drink?

0:26:11 > 0:26:17Since Edward VII, "the boy" has been a colloquial term for which drink?

0:26:17 > 0:26:21I remember hearing a story, possibly on 5 Live

0:26:21 > 0:26:25or on the Today programme, about absinthe making a comeback.

0:26:25 > 0:26:27I thought you were going to say

0:26:27 > 0:26:30"absinthe making the heart grow fonder"!

0:26:30 > 0:26:34- So did I.- That implies it's been around a long time.

0:26:34 > 0:26:38- Brandy, I guess, has been around a long time.- Let's discount champagne.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41- OK.- Let's throw out the champagne.

0:26:41 > 0:26:45- Shall we just go for instinct again? - What's your instinct?

0:26:45 > 0:26:51I had my go earlier on. I've had my time. This is you in the spotlight.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53What do you think?

0:26:53 > 0:26:57My instinct says brandy so we'll go for brandy.

0:26:57 > 0:27:02OK, "the boy" colloquial term for...

0:27:02 > 0:27:05It's champagne! Champagne.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08But it's not over yet.

0:27:08 > 0:27:13The Eggheads have to get this right. If not, we go to sudden death.

0:27:13 > 0:27:21Whose 2005 book about writing poetry is entitled The Ode Less Travelled?

0:27:25 > 0:27:31Whose 2005 book about writing poetry is entitled The Ode Less Travelled?

0:27:31 > 0:27:35Quite prolific in all sorts of areas, Stephen Fry.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38Stephen Fry.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41Is the right answer. You've won.

0:27:45 > 0:27:48Why couldn't you have got that Stephen Fry one?

0:27:48 > 0:27:52Really great players. Fantastic! One question in it.

0:27:52 > 0:27:59The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them. They reign supreme over quizland.

0:27:59 > 0:28:04You won't be going home with the £1,000. The money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?

0:28:07 > 0:28:12Join us next time to see if a team of BBC news presenters have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:12 > 0:28:16£2,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
