These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:040:00:08

Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:090:00:15

The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:170:00:19

Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads,

0:00:230:00:27

the show were a team of five Quiz Challengers pit their wits

0:00:270:00:30

against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:300:00:33

You might recognise them as they've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows.

0:00:330:00:37

They're the Eggheads. Going head to head against our awesome quiz champions today are...

0:00:370:00:42

Featuring a plethora of the nation's best acting, presenting and now, it would seem, quizzing talent.

0:00:450:00:51

This team of celebrity Mastermind winners simply by virtue of their proven quizzing prowess

0:00:510:00:56

can surely lay claim to being the very definition of the phrase, Celebrity Eggheads. Let's meet them.

0:00:560:01:03

Hello, I'm Shaun Williamson. I'm an actor, singer and all round good egg.

0:01:030:01:07

Hi, I'm Kaye Adams. I'm a presenter and journalist

0:01:070:01:09

and wondering what I'm doing here.

0:01:090:01:12

Hi, I'm Spoony. Broadcaster, club DJ and I crack eggs.

0:01:120:01:16

Hi, I'm Jan Ravens.

0:01:160:01:18

I'm an actress and comedian

0:01:180:01:20

and hoping to do a wicked impression of a complete brain box.

0:01:200:01:23

I'm Paul Ross, broadcaster and bighead.

0:01:230:01:26

So, Egg Masters, welcome and thanks for having a go at the Eggheads today on this celebrity edition.

0:01:260:01:32

But you've all done this kind of thing before by being on Mastermind.

0:01:320:01:35

Shaun, how does that compare? You haven't done this yet.

0:01:350:01:38

I don't know, they were both nerve-wracking, really.

0:01:380:01:41

I chose Richard Burton as a topic and managed to get 17 out of 17,

0:01:410:01:46

but I hung on for grim death on general knowledge, really.

0:01:460:01:50

I slumped across the line at the last gasp victory.

0:01:500:01:54

-It's pretty formidable those five. It's like a firing squad.

-OK, then,

0:01:540:01:58

let's play the game and thanks once again for coming along.

0:01:580:02:02

Every day there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our Challengers' chosen charity.

0:02:020:02:07

However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:070:02:12

Egg Masters, the Eggheads have won the last five games,

0:02:120:02:14

which means £6,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:140:02:19

Let's set about that task.

0:02:190:02:20

The first head to head subject is going to be film and television.

0:02:200:02:24

There'll be a charge to play this one!

0:02:240:02:26

Film and television, any one of you can play it.

0:02:260:02:29

Who wants to take it on?

0:02:290:02:31

-I'd love to do it if nobody else wants to do it.

-Go on.

0:02:310:02:33

-It's right down his street. Paul, any Egghead you like. It's the opening round.

-The big fella.

0:02:330:02:38

I'm going to pick him off early. He's got loser written all over him. Chris. It's you and me.

0:02:380:02:43

-OK, then.

-As once before, Paul.

0:02:430:02:44

SPOONY: He's jealous of your hairstyle.

0:02:440:02:46

Let's have Paul and Chris into the Question Room just to make sure you can't confer with your teams.

0:02:460:02:51

Paul, I sit at the feet of the master when it comes to presenting quiz shows and games shows.

0:02:520:02:57

Have you kept a list of how many of them you've done?

0:02:570:03:00

I can't honestly remember how many I've fronted

0:03:000:03:02

but I know I've made something like 1,000 episodes of different game shows.

0:03:020:03:06

I should have got a better lawyer, shouldn't I? Got a better brief.

0:03:060:03:10

The repeat fees. Somewhere on Challenge, you're on.

0:03:100:03:12

Somewhere in this country, in one of the many micro channels, you can see my ugly mug, sadly.

0:03:120:03:17

Even in the days when I had a quiff and hair. Going back to the late '80s.

0:03:170:03:21

Even on film, I remember you were in Bridget Jones' Diary. That was a good spoof one, that one.

0:03:210:03:25

That was quite good fun although - I'd never acted in my life -

0:03:250:03:28

and I found myself getting hurt cos they cut me out. You can hear my voice, and I'm a cardboard cut out.

0:03:290:03:34

And I sulked and then I thought, I'm not an actor, I was lucky to be there.

0:03:340:03:38

When I got the script they said to me, "We've a tiny part for you".

0:03:380:03:41

I looked right down the list of characters and at the very bottom it had 'slimy TV presenter'.

0:03:410:03:45

"That'll be me."

0:03:450:03:47

OK, Paul, you get to choose, you're the Challenger.

0:03:480:03:51

-Do you want to go first or second?

-I'll go first, please.

0:03:510:03:54

First question coming your way, Paul.

0:03:560:03:58

Which Coronation Street character is the mother of daughters called Rosie and Sophie?

0:03:580:04:04

She's the mother of Rosie and she's a bit of a blonde minx

0:04:070:04:10

and she's had a chequered past and she is working

0:04:100:04:12

in the Underworld factory making underpants

0:04:120:04:15

and its Sally Webster, Dermot.

0:04:150:04:18

It is Sally Webster.

0:04:160:04:18

One on the board, straight away.

0:04:180:04:20

And Chris, your first question. What's the surname of Patsy,

0:04:200:04:25

played by Joanna Lumley in the TV sitcom Absolutely Fabulous?

0:04:250:04:28

A bit of a pun going on there, I think she's Patsy Stone.

0:04:310:04:35

-Without the "d".

-Without the "d".

0:04:350:04:37

It's the right answer. Well done, Chris. Back to you, Paul.

0:04:370:04:41

Which actor has starred in the films, Tropic Thunder, The Heartbreak Kid and Along Came Polly?

0:04:410:04:47

They're all great comedy actors and great serious actors.

0:04:500:04:53

This guy is a great director as well.

0:04:530:04:55

His father's a great actor and, of course,

0:04:550:04:57

he stars in Night In The Museum 1 and 2. It's Ben Stiller.

0:04:570:05:01

It's Ben Stiller. It's the right answer. Two to you.

0:05:010:05:03

Chris,

0:05:030:05:05

Which former England cricketer became a regular

0:05:050:05:07

team captain on the TV show, A Question Of Sport in 2008?

0:05:070:05:12

I think we've seen him doing rabbit impressions. It's Phil Tufnell.

0:05:150:05:20

Yes, the previous edition of Celebrity Eggheads.

0:05:200:05:24

It's the right answer. Phil Tufnell.

0:05:240:05:27

We won't go there with his bunny rabbit act.

0:05:270:05:31

Paul, third question, could win the round if you get it.

0:05:310:05:34

Anna Maxwell Martin won the Best Actress award at the 2009 TV BAFTAs for her performance in which drama?

0:05:340:05:42

This is going to be a complete guess.

0:05:470:05:50

Because, not for the first time, I've gone blank.

0:05:500:05:52

I'm going to go middle for diddle,

0:05:520:05:54

I'm going to take a complete punt and say Poppy Shakespeare.

0:05:540:05:57

Probably an informed punt, I suspect. It is the right answer.

0:05:570:06:02

Anna Maxwell Martin winning a BAFTA for that.

0:06:020:06:04

It means you've got to get this, Chris.

0:06:040:06:06

What's the name of the character played by Tom Cruise in the 1993 film, The Firm?

0:06:060:06:11

Ah.

0:06:170:06:18

Is that a law firm or a gang?

0:06:180:06:21

Cole Trickle strikes me as a completely joke name.

0:06:210:06:26

If he's a lawyer, I don't see him getting very far

0:06:260:06:28

being called Mitch McDeere.

0:06:280:06:30

So, good solid, boring lawyer's name, John Anderton.

0:06:300:06:36

John Anderton? It's Mitch McDeere.

0:06:360:06:39

Is it?

0:06:390:06:41

But it means that was your question, Chris,

0:06:410:06:43

you didn't get it. Paul, you're playing in the final round for the money today.

0:06:430:06:47

Would you please both come back and join your teams.

0:06:470:06:50

As it stands, Egg Masters have knocked out one Egghead from the final round.

0:06:500:06:55

We play our next round today.

0:06:550:06:57

This one is history.

0:06:570:06:59

Who wants to play this? It can't be Paul. Any of the other four. History.

0:06:590:07:03

-Want me to go for it?

-Yes, good man.

0:07:030:07:05

Well, I've been nominated by popular...

0:07:050:07:08

-That's very decent of you, Shaun. No-one else would do it.

-..vote.

0:07:080:07:12

As you can see, I'm ecstatic.

0:07:120:07:14

You can do a lap of the studio. Do that when you win the round.

0:07:140:07:17

Which Egghead would you like to play? It can't be Chris so any of the other four.

0:07:170:07:20

Don't take Daphne, she's mine.

0:07:200:07:23

I think I will take Daphne, actually.

0:07:230:07:26

Thwarted, Kaye.

0:07:260:07:29

It's going to be Shaun and Daphne playing history. Could I ask you both please

0:07:290:07:32

to head to the Question Room.

0:07:320:07:35

OK, Shaun, let's play the round.

0:07:350:07:38

History, do you want to go first or second?

0:07:380:07:40

I'll go...

0:07:400:07:42

first, please.

0:07:420:07:44

All right then, off we go. Your first question, Shaun.

0:07:460:07:49

Which English monarch, born in 1533, was known as the Virgin Queen?

0:07:490:07:54

It certainly wasn't Anne, she had 17 children. 14 died

0:07:560:08:01

stillborn and I think three died before the age of two.

0:08:010:08:05

Victoria had, I think, 9 to 13 children

0:08:050:08:08

so it's definitely Elizabeth I.

0:08:080:08:10

You've left out immaculate conception, though.

0:08:100:08:13

Elizabeth I is the right answer. Well done, born in 1533.

0:08:130:08:17

Daphne,

0:08:170:08:19

who was President of the United States

0:08:190:08:21

at the outbreak of World War Two?

0:08:210:08:23

That was Franklin D Roosevelt.

0:08:270:08:31

It's the right answer. Franklin D Roosevelt.

0:08:310:08:34

Your second question, Shaun.

0:08:340:08:36

What was the real name of Bonnie Prince Charlie,

0:08:360:08:40

leader of the unsuccessful Jacobite rebellion of 1745-1746?

0:08:400:08:44

Of course, he was from the line of Stuarts.

0:08:480:08:51

The reason why he never got to the throne was because they desperately

0:08:510:08:55

wanted a Protestant on the throne

0:08:550:08:56

which is why they brought in the Hanoverians, starting with George I.

0:08:560:08:59

He was, quite rightly, in line to the throne

0:08:590:09:01

so it was Charles Edward Stuart.

0:09:010:09:03

Charles Edward Stuart is correct, Shaun.

0:09:030:09:05

You have two and Daphne, your second question.

0:09:050:09:07

The Suez crisis occurred in which year?

0:09:070:09:10

Well, I'm old enough to remember it.

0:09:150:09:17

It was 1956.

0:09:170:09:20

Suez Crisis, 1956. Correct, Daphne.

0:09:200:09:22

Well, all square after two. Let's see if you get this, Shaun, and hope Daphne slips up on her third one,

0:09:220:09:30

like Chris did.

0:09:300:09:32

"Put your trust in God but mind to keep your powder dry"

0:09:320:09:35

is a quotation attributed to which soldier and statesman born in 1599?

0:09:350:09:41

I'm positive John of Gaunt and Robert de Ufford were well before that time

0:09:450:09:49

and I think I remember the phrase being accredited to Oliver Cromwell.

0:09:490:09:54

Oliver Cromwell, "Trust in God but keep your powder dry"

0:09:540:09:57

is the right answer, yes.

0:09:570:09:59

You've got to get this, Daphne.

0:09:590:10:01

What's the name of the Dutch admiral who, according to tradition,

0:10:010:10:04

hoisted a broom to the masthead of his ship to declare he had swept

0:10:040:10:08

the sea clean of his enemies in the first Anglo-Dutch war during the 17th century?

0:10:080:10:13

He was Admiral Von Tromp.

0:10:160:10:20

Yes, he was. It's the right answer.

0:10:200:10:22

It's three all. So, Shaun, we're going to go to Sudden Death.

0:10:220:10:26

Make it harder by removing the options. I've just got to hear an answer from you.

0:10:260:10:30

Which ancient city was founded as Qart Hadast, literally meaning

0:10:300:10:35

"new city", in approximately 814 BC by Phoenician traders?

0:10:350:10:41

That's just not my bag at all.

0:10:410:10:44

I could only assume, I remember in the Punic Wars, Carthage

0:10:440:10:49

fought against Rome and that's the only thing I could think of.

0:10:490:10:51

Because it's almost an amalgamation of those two words. Is it Carthage?

0:10:510:10:55

It is Carthage. Well done, Shaun.

0:10:550:10:58

Work it out like an Egghead.

0:10:580:11:01

He nearly is an Egghead.

0:11:010:11:04

Daphne, the site of the battlefield of Bannockburn is in the southern outskirts of which Scottish city?

0:11:040:11:12

I'm torn between two.

0:11:120:11:14

What are they?

0:11:140:11:16

Edinburgh and Stirling.

0:11:160:11:19

But Sterling wasn't a city then, so...

0:11:200:11:24

Bannockburn...

0:11:270:11:30

I don't know why but I'm going to say Stirling.

0:11:300:11:33

Because it's the right answer.

0:11:330:11:36

I say programmed to get the answers.

0:11:360:11:38

Kaye, we can almost hear you going, "Think Edinburgh, think Edinburgh!"

0:11:380:11:45

Right, Shaun, another Sudden Death one.

0:11:450:11:47

In 1258, which English king agreed to share power with a permanent

0:11:470:11:52

council of barons according to the Provisions Of Oxford?

0:11:520:11:57

It was something that was thrust upon a king by Simon de Montfort.

0:11:570:12:01

And it was...

0:12:020:12:05

He was the father of...

0:12:050:12:08

Edward I, Longshanks.

0:12:080:12:10

I think it was Henry III.

0:12:140:12:16

Spoony saying, "No way can he get that right".

0:12:160:12:19

-I'm going home if he does.

-Bye bye, Spoony. It's Henry III.

0:12:190:12:23

-THEY ALL WHOOP

-We're not worthy!

0:12:230:12:26

Astonishing.

0:12:260:12:28

OK.

0:12:280:12:30

Well, Daphne,

0:12:300:12:34

you were rocking and rolling and reeling on the last one, can you get this to stay alive?

0:12:340:12:38

During the 20th century, which country built the Mannheim Line to defend its territory?

0:12:380:12:44

Finland.

0:12:460:12:47

..Is correct.

0:12:490:12:51

Finland and Henry III.

0:12:510:12:53

What a pair of answers. Fantastic stuff.

0:12:530:12:55

Shaun, what name, thought to be derived from the Spanish word,

0:12:550:12:59

"cimarron", meaning wild or untamed, was given to the runaway Jamaican

0:12:590:13:04

slaves who fought two guerrilla wars against the British authorities in the 18th century?

0:13:040:13:10

I don't know. They weren't called the cimio, C-I-M-I-O?

0:13:100:13:15

C-I-M-I-O, from cimarron.

0:13:150:13:19

They weren't, Shaun, it's the other bit of it, it's maroons.

0:13:190:13:23

The maroons.

0:13:230:13:24

A chance for Daphne.

0:13:250:13:28

Who was the last of the Julio-Claudian dynasty of Roman emperors?

0:13:280:13:34

Nero?

0:13:340:13:36

It's the correct answer, Daphne. You have won the round.

0:13:380:13:42

One of the most competitive rounds we've ever had on Eggheads

0:13:420:13:45

but in the end, you've just shaded Shaun.

0:13:450:13:47

I don't know how. Shaun, tremendous quizzing but it means you won't be in the final round.

0:13:470:13:50

Would you both please come back and join your teams.

0:13:500:13:54

It's all square in terms of the teams, both the Egg Masters and the Eggheads have lost one brain.

0:13:540:13:57

Our next subject is sport.

0:13:570:14:02

Who wants to play this?

0:14:020:14:04

I'd love to do it, let me do it, guys. All right, you do it!

0:14:040:14:08

THEY ALL LAUGH

0:14:080:14:10

It's unfair of them, Kaye, isn't it?

0:14:100:14:12

It is definitely Spoony's gig, sport.

0:14:120:14:14

All right, Spoony. Chris and Daphne have played so you've got CJ, Kevin, or Judith.

0:14:140:14:17

OK, I think I'm going to go for C-Judith.

0:14:170:14:21

C-Judith, that's a good one.

0:14:210:14:22

-Judith it is then.

-No, go for CJ.

0:14:220:14:25

I think it's you, Judith. It's Spoony and Judith, heading for the Question Room.

0:14:250:14:28

Well, this will be quick, anyhow.

0:14:280:14:30

Spoony, do you want to go first or second?

0:14:310:14:34

It should be ladies first but I'm not a gentleman so I'm going to go first.

0:14:340:14:38

OK, good luck, Spoony, first question.

0:14:410:14:43

What's the surname of the two brothers that represented England in the 1966 football World Cup final?

0:14:430:14:49

A nice gentle one to start, Dermot.

0:14:510:14:54

I'm going to go for Charlton.

0:14:540:14:56

And you'd be right to. That is correct. Nice and gentle.

0:14:560:14:59

Judith, in boxing, what item is traditionally thrown into the ring to signal defeat?

0:15:010:15:07

I think that would be towel.

0:15:090:15:11

-Have you got one there?

-Yes, ready to throw in. I can tell you.

0:15:110:15:15

It's the right answer. Spoony, second question.

0:15:150:15:18

Which snooker player won his third World Championship title in 2009?

0:15:180:15:22

I've a little bit of a passing interest in snooker because someone

0:15:270:15:30

I went to school with, Peter Ebdon, is also a former World Champion.

0:15:300:15:35

-Good player.

-Yes, very good player.

0:15:350:15:37

But just because of my passing interest, I don't think it's

0:15:370:15:39

Stephen Hendry because he won most of his stuff pre that date.

0:15:390:15:43

I'm going to go for John Higgins.

0:15:430:15:45

John Higgins, third World Championship in 2009, it's right.

0:15:450:15:49

Two to you.

0:15:490:15:50

Now, Judith, in 1980, Seve Ballesteros became

0:15:520:15:55

the first European winner of which of golf's four major tournaments?

0:15:550:16:00

It could be any of them.

0:16:030:16:06

The most prestigious one is the Masters, isn't it?

0:16:060:16:10

I think I'm going to try that one.

0:16:100:16:12

-The Masters?

-Yes.

0:16:120:16:13

Spoony, I'm sure knows this. And he knows that's right.

0:16:130:16:16

It is right, good.

0:16:160:16:17

The US Masters, won by Seve in 1980.

0:16:170:16:19

Third question apiece.

0:16:190:16:21

This one for you, Spoony. In which position did the former England rugby union captain,

0:16:210:16:26

Bill Beaumont, play for the majority of his international career?

0:16:260:16:30

Now, rugby isn't

0:16:340:16:36

one of my biggest sports.

0:16:360:16:40

I do know that big players tend to play around the prop position.

0:16:400:16:45

So, I'm going to go for prop.

0:16:450:16:48

No, he wasn't. He's a lock.

0:16:480:16:50

The back of the scrum.

0:16:500:16:52

Bill Beaumont was a lock.

0:16:520:16:54

So, how did we get to here?

0:16:540:16:56

Judith a chance to win sport round.

0:16:560:16:59

Well, a chance I say. Let's see how you do.

0:16:590:17:01

One in three chance, I guess.

0:17:010:17:03

Which female American athlete won gold medals in the individual 100 metres

0:17:030:17:07

at both the 1992 and 1996 Olympic Games?

0:17:070:17:12

I've never heard of any of them.

0:17:150:17:17

-So, it's a guess.

-Is it, really?

0:17:170:17:19

And, funnily enough, I had a long time in Eggheads when I was

0:17:190:17:24

very lucky going down the right-hand side.

0:17:240:17:27

Si I'm going to say Gail Devers.

0:17:270:17:29

I nearly let out an expletive.

0:17:290:17:31

-It is the right answer.

-JUDITH LAUGHS

0:17:310:17:33

Sorry, Spoony.

0:17:330:17:35

Gail Devers won the 100 metres in 1992 and 1996 Olympics.

0:17:350:17:39

I'm really sorry.

0:17:390:17:41

Judith, how do you do it? It means, Spoony, somehow unexplainably you're not in the final round.

0:17:410:17:45

Would you both please come back and join your teams.

0:17:450:17:50

Well, the balance has swung in the Eggheads' favour. Only just.

0:17:500:17:52

They've knocked two Egg Masters out.

0:17:520:17:54

One Egghead has gone and the last chance for any player to be knocked out now.

0:17:540:17:59

The last head to head is Food & Drink.

0:17:590:18:01

Kaye or Jan to play.

0:18:010:18:05

What do you think?

0:18:050:18:07

You're both too skinny to do food and drink.

0:18:070:18:10

I think you should do it, Kaye.

0:18:100:18:12

-I should go?

-Yes.

-I'll go.

0:18:120:18:13

Don't go yet.

0:18:130:18:15

You've got to choose an Egghead.

0:18:150:18:17

Those two in the middle. CJ or Kevin.

0:18:170:18:21

It's your choice, Kaye. From watching the show,

0:18:210:18:24

Kevin is very good but his weaknesses, I reckon, are Science and Food & Drink.

0:18:240:18:28

So, it's your call, I would swerve CJ and go for Kevin. If I were you.

0:18:280:18:31

-Kev, let's you and me do it.

-Kev, very familiar.

0:18:310:18:35

Two K's.

0:18:350:18:36

Let's have Kaye and Kevin into the Question Room, please.

0:18:360:18:39

Now, do you want to go first or second against,

0:18:410:18:44

as Paul identified, one of the weaker subjects Kevin has in his armoury.

0:18:440:18:48

Don't build it up like that!

0:18:480:18:50

I'm going to go first. I want to get this over with. Get going.

0:18:500:18:53

OK, first question, Kaye.

0:18:560:18:58

What name is commonly given to a globular glass used for drinking good brandy?

0:18:580:19:02

It's not bubble, she said with some confidence,

0:19:050:19:09

I don't think it is bubble.

0:19:090:19:11

I think it's balloon.

0:19:120:19:14

Balloon it is. Good start.

0:19:140:19:17

Straight off.

0:19:170:19:19

Kevin, which popular kitchen implement resembling a lever-type nutcracker consists of a receptacle

0:19:190:19:25

with a perforated based on one arm and a piston on the other?

0:19:250:19:28

It doesn't sound as though it's going to be

0:19:310:19:33

anything to do with fish scaling but who knows?

0:19:330:19:36

It sounds as though...

0:19:370:19:39

It's obviously some kind of

0:19:390:19:41

action involving pressing if a piston is...

0:19:410:19:45

pushing something through into a base.

0:19:450:19:47

I can't even get a handle properly on the description,

0:19:500:19:53

I'm not sure I've ever seen one. I'll say garlic press.

0:19:530:19:55

Is the right answer.

0:19:570:19:58

Yes. He's not making it up, Kaye, he's not making it up.

0:19:580:20:02

He is having a laugh.

0:20:020:20:03

He genuinely isn't.

0:20:030:20:05

You should see the questions he's got wrong in that subject.

0:20:050:20:08

I've never pressed a garlic in my life or done anything else to one.

0:20:080:20:13

OK, it's all square,

0:20:130:20:16

only just. Kaye, your second question.

0:20:160:20:18

French dishes cooked with cream, apples, cider and Calvados are described as what?

0:20:180:20:23

I think the question is where does Calvados come from?

0:20:310:20:34

Is it from the Alsace

0:20:340:20:37

or Normandy?

0:20:370:20:39

I think Alsacienne is right but for some bizarre reason

0:20:410:20:46

I'm going to for a la Normande.

0:20:460:20:48

It's correct.

0:20:480:20:49

You were right identifying the apples, apple cider and Calvados.

0:20:510:20:55

All apple-based.

0:20:550:20:57

That's Normandy for you. Well done.

0:20:570:20:59

Kevin, Mahmut Aygun, who died in January 2009 at the age of 87,

0:20:590:21:05

was the inventor of which dish?

0:21:050:21:09

It's a Turkish-sounding name.

0:21:120:21:14

So, on the basis it's a Turkish name, I've got to say doner kebab.

0:21:140:21:18

Doner kebab is correct.

0:21:180:21:20

He worked that out from

0:21:200:21:21

Mr Aygun's name. Third question, Kaye.

0:21:210:21:26

In Spanish cuisine, Cabrales is a type of what?

0:21:260:21:29

Right, Cabra...

0:21:350:21:38

I don't think it's wine.

0:21:380:21:40

I think it's blue cheese.

0:21:400:21:44

It is blue cheese. That's the correct answer.

0:21:440:21:48

Three to you. Well, Kevin,

0:21:480:21:49

what is the name of the mixture made from olive oil, garlic, lime juice,

0:21:490:21:54

cumin and other spices that's often called the Cuban national sauce?

0:21:540:21:59

I'm tempted to go for Mojo but maybe that's too close to Mojito,

0:22:030:22:07

which is another Cuban thing.

0:22:070:22:10

So, Boho, Gogo.

0:22:100:22:13

I have no idea so I'll say Gogo.

0:22:130:22:16

You went from the correct answer to the wrong answer.

0:22:160:22:19

It's Mojo. Boho, Mojo or Gogo and it is Mojo which means you go-go.

0:22:190:22:25

Kaye, you're playing in the final round. I bet you didn't expect that.

0:22:250:22:28

-Well done, Kaye!

-Woo-hoo!

0:22:280:22:30

Would you both please come back and join your teams.

0:22:320:22:37

That's great head to heads but now we've reached what we've been playing towards.

0:22:370:22:41

It's time for the final round which, as always, is General Knowledge

0:22:410:22:44

but I'm afraid those of you who lost your head to heads

0:22:440:22:46

won't be allowed to take part.

0:22:460:22:47

So, Shaun and Spoony from the Egg Masters, and Kevin

0:22:470:22:51

and Chris from the Eggheads, would you leave the studio, please.

0:22:510:22:56

Kaye, Jan and Paul. You're playing to win the Egg Masters £6,000.

0:22:580:23:01

Judith, CJ and Daphne, you're playing for something which money can't buy. Oh no.

0:23:010:23:06

The Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:060:23:08

As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.

0:23:080:23:10

This time the questions are all general knowledge

0:23:100:23:13

and you're allowed to confer, that's the big difference.

0:23:130:23:15

Egg Masters, the question is, are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three?

0:23:150:23:19

And Egg Masters, you get to choose, as the Challengers, do you want to go first or second?

0:23:190:23:24

First, please.

0:23:240:23:25

Yes, very decisive. Let's have a decisive answer to this one.

0:23:280:23:31

In Roman numerals, what number is represented by the letters XCVII?

0:23:310:23:38

X-C-V-I-I.

0:23:410:23:45

The X's were before so it's 10 off 107...

0:23:470:23:50

Because IV is four, so XC must be

0:23:500:23:53

10 off, erm...

0:23:530:23:55

You're right, IV is four.

0:23:550:23:57

So I think 97.

0:23:570:24:01

-Are we all agreed?

-Yes.

0:24:010:24:02

-Should we hold hands?

-Yes.

0:24:020:24:04

We think it's 97, Dermot.

0:24:040:24:06

It wouldn't make it any less wrong by whispering it. It is correct.

0:24:060:24:10

Gee!

0:24:110:24:13

You horrible person!

0:24:130:24:15

Yes, you knew it, you've done your maths very well. XCVII - 97.

0:24:160:24:21

-I'd have got that wrong.

-Eggheads, first question to you.

0:24:210:24:23

According to the quotation attributed to the Dutch humanist, Desiderius Erasmus,

0:24:230:24:29

"In the kingdom of the blind, the one eyed man is..." what?

0:24:290:24:33

The one eyed man is king.

0:24:360:24:38

Correct answer, Eggheads, King. Back to Egg Masters.

0:24:380:24:42

Who wrote the 16th century poem, Venus And Adonis?

0:24:420:24:46

Who wrote the 16th century poem, Venus And Adonis?

0:24:490:24:53

I'm pretty sure it's Shakespeare.

0:24:530:24:55

Kaye, what do you think?

0:24:550:24:57

Yes.

0:24:570:24:59

We're pretty sure. I don't think Webster wrote too many poems,

0:24:590:25:02

he wrote lots of Jacobean plays.

0:25:020:25:04

John Donne was Dean of St Paul's but I think he wrote metaphysical

0:25:040:25:08

poems, I don't think he wrote Venus and Adonis. We think it's...

0:25:080:25:10

-Shakespeare.

-Yep.

0:25:100:25:12

Shakespeare it is, correct answer Egg Masters. So, you have two.

0:25:120:25:16

And, Eggheads, what was the last year in the 20th century that Mount Vesuvius erupted?

0:25:160:25:22

I think it was quite recently, like '84.

0:25:260:25:30

I have to be honest,

0:25:300:25:32

I thought it was an early '80s as well but I'm not at all sure.

0:25:320:25:36

I have no idea.

0:25:360:25:37

I have a vague feeling.

0:25:370:25:39

I don't think it was '44.

0:25:390:25:40

No, because it would have been during the war.

0:25:400:25:42

I think it was 1984. Instantly.

0:25:440:25:46

Both Judith and I had an instinct that it was in the early '80s.

0:25:460:25:51

As far as I'm aware, only one of those dates is in the '80s.

0:25:530:25:56

-We don't know it, but we going to go for 1984.

-OK.

0:25:560:25:58

No, you don't know it, it's 1944.

0:25:580:26:02

Really!

0:26:020:26:03

Vesuvius, remember.

0:26:030:26:05

Etna has had loads of eruptions.

0:26:050:26:08

I just remember in the papers.

0:26:080:26:11

-Vesuvius.

-Yes, Vesuvius.

0:26:110:26:13

Etna you'll have read about.

0:26:130:26:15

Constant lava flows.

0:26:150:26:17

So, there we are.

0:26:170:26:19

Fantastic scoreline for you, which means fate in your own hands.

0:26:190:26:23

One correct answer here and you'll become the first celebrity team to beat the Eggheads.

0:26:230:26:27

Which US state, divided by water into a two large

0:26:270:26:32

peninsulas, shares land borders with Indiana, Ohio and Wisconsin?

0:26:320:26:38

A peninsula is surrounded on three sides by water.

0:26:400:26:44

So, Michigan is the one with the Great Lakes.

0:26:470:26:50

-And that's fairly north, isn't it?

-Yes, it definitely north.

0:26:500:26:54

So, Iowa can't be peninsula because it's landlocked, isn't it?

0:26:540:26:59

-Where is Iowa?

-Iowa's in the Midwest, isn't it?

0:26:590:27:02

-Midwest?

-Yes, but it hasn't got any coast, has it, Iowa?

0:27:020:27:06

And your first thought was Michigan?

0:27:060:27:08

I was terrible at geography.

0:27:080:27:09

I also, for some reason, thought Michigan but I've

0:27:090:27:13

barely got geography O level. Should we go for Michigan?

0:27:130:27:17

-Yes, let's go for Michigan.

-Michigan.

0:27:170:27:19

OK, going for it. Michigan.

0:27:190:27:21

The answer...

0:27:210:27:23

Is Iowa. Well, Kaye with "I think this is wrong, this is right".

0:27:250:27:30

It's the right answer. You've beaten the Eggheads.

0:27:300:27:32

THEY ALL CHEER

0:27:320:27:34

My heart, it's beating like a drum.

0:27:420:27:46

Oh my God, in your face.

0:27:460:27:48

THEY ALL LAUGH

0:27:480:27:50

I don't know how you worked that out!

0:27:500:27:52

In the end, you did get it. First celebrity team to beat the Eggheads.

0:27:520:27:55

We had a series last year, they were unbeaten.

0:27:550:27:58

You are the first team to take the crown and take the money.

0:27:580:28:01

Tell me about the charity that's getting the money.

0:28:010:28:04

It's called Changing Faces and it works with people with

0:28:040:28:07

facial disfigurements who have to cope with that.

0:28:070:28:10

It helps them psychologically and in all sorts of ways

0:28:100:28:13

and it also helps the rest of us deal with facial disfigurement

0:28:130:28:16

and tries to increase awareness and just get everyone a bit more tolerant about it

0:28:160:28:20

and help people who have it to deal with it physically and emotionally.

0:28:200:28:23

It's fantastic stuff, and great to hear that the money is going to a great cause.

0:28:230:28:27

Congratulations once again to the Egg Masters. Great to see you, what a fantastic team.

0:28:270:28:32

Join us next time on Eggheads

0:28:320:28:34

to see if a team of former Blue Peter presenters

0:28:340:28:36

will be just as successful. Until then, goodbye.
