0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:09 > 0:00:12Together, they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most

0:00:12 > 0:00:15formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:16 > 0:00:20The question is - can they be beaten?

0:00:23 > 0:00:28Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads, the show where

0:00:28 > 0:00:31a team of five quiz challengers pit their wits against possibly

0:00:31 > 0:00:34the greatest quiz team in Britain. You might recognise them, as they

0:00:34 > 0:00:37have won some of the country's toughest quiz shows.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40They are the Eggheads.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43And taking on our quiz Goliaths today are the Fab Five.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46Now, when Pat heard that a certain person was going to be joining

0:00:46 > 0:00:49this team of some of the country's most respected journalists

0:00:49 > 0:00:53and broadcasters, he got a little bit excited, it must be said.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55Suffice to say the mention of a white dress, a high kicking

0:00:55 > 0:00:59dance routine and Morecambe and Wise brought a very big grin to his face!

0:00:59 > 0:01:05And Pat, Angela has promised to recreate it for you backstage,

0:01:05 > 0:01:06if you let her win!

0:01:06 > 0:01:10Eggheads, there may be trouble ahead! Let's meet them.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13Hello, I'm Jennie Bond. Best known, I suppose, for standing outside

0:01:13 > 0:01:15Buckingham Palace for 14 years as the BBC's

0:01:15 > 0:01:20Royal Correspondent and these days presenting a number of TV shows.

0:01:20 > 0:01:21Hello. I'm Jan Leeming,

0:01:21 > 0:01:25TV interviewer, presenter and former newsreader.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28Hello, I'm Angela Ripon. I'm a journalist and a broadcaster.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31Hello. I'm Sue MacGregor, radio broadcaster.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33Used to be one of the presenters of the Today programme,

0:01:33 > 0:01:37now I'm doing A Good Read and The Reunion on Radio 4.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39Hello, I'm Rosie Boycott.

0:01:39 > 0:01:40I'm a journalist and broadcaster

0:01:40 > 0:01:43and I'm also the chair of the London Food Board.

0:01:43 > 0:01:44Great to see you, Fab Five.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47Thank you so much for coming along to try and take

0:01:47 > 0:01:50the Eggheads out today. Tell me, I've been wondering about this.

0:01:50 > 0:01:54You've obviously got the current affairs side of things covered.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57We've got a politics round, I hope. It will be a scramble to play that.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00What about the other subjects we've got here? What are your

0:02:00 > 0:02:01hidden talents?

0:02:01 > 0:02:04Who'd play the arts category if it comes up?

0:02:07 > 0:02:08Sue, I think.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Possibly. Possibly.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12Keeping our cards close to our chest.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Giving nothing away!

0:02:14 > 0:02:18All right then. Listen, let's play the categories for real.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Because only four will come up, and let me tell me what's been

0:02:20 > 0:02:24happening so far. Every day there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs

0:02:24 > 0:02:26for our challengers' chosen charity.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money

0:02:29 > 0:02:33rolls over to the next show. So Fab Five, the Eggheads have won just

0:02:33 > 0:02:36the last game, which means £2,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:36 > 0:02:41And let's unveil our first category today. This one is Music.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44We didn't discuss that, who'd like to play this? Music?

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- Any one of you at this point. - Is it classical or modern?

0:02:47 > 0:02:50It's all mixed up. You've got classical, modern, pop, jazz...

0:02:50 > 0:02:52I think it's got to be Angela.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55- I know nothing about pop music. - I think it should be her.

0:02:55 > 0:02:56- Musicals... - Angela's been nominated.

0:02:56 > 0:03:01- She's volunteered! - I've been nominated, yes!

0:03:01 > 0:03:02Go on, high kick your way across!

0:03:02 > 0:03:06Make Pat's day! Would you like to choose?

0:03:06 > 0:03:08You get to choose, Angela, because

0:03:08 > 0:03:11we try and tip the balance in your favour.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13- We would like to choose CJ, please. - I'd be honoured!

0:03:13 > 0:03:15CJ. Absolutely. You should be!

0:03:15 > 0:03:17- Angela Ripon, no less!- Absolutely!

0:03:17 > 0:03:20.. is taking you into the question room. Could I ask you both

0:03:20 > 0:03:24to go to the question room, to make sure you can't confer with team-mates. That's Angela and CJ.

0:03:26 > 0:03:30So, Angela, where do we start? Your musical tastes - what is

0:03:30 > 0:03:32your favourite musical genre?

0:03:32 > 0:03:36Quite a lot of classical, some jazz.

0:03:36 > 0:03:41Pop probably mostly from the Sixties and Seventies. My era!

0:03:41 > 0:03:45OK. And we can't pass by without...

0:03:45 > 0:03:47Pat's asked me to.

0:03:47 > 0:03:51The high kicking with Morecambe and Wise, just tell me how that

0:03:51 > 0:03:53came about? Did you suggest it? Did they suggest it?

0:03:53 > 0:03:56Or were you volunteered, a bit like playing this round today?!

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Yeah, a bit like that!

0:03:58 > 0:04:04No, I was asked to do the programme because they would get somebody to do

0:04:04 > 0:04:07something out of the box, as it were, at the end of

0:04:07 > 0:04:09their Christmas show every year.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13And at that time, I was the first journalist news reader, the first

0:04:13 > 0:04:16woman journalist news reader on the BBC and I had quite a high profile.

0:04:16 > 0:04:20And so they asked me if I would be the end turn, as it were.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23They asked me first of all to sing, which I can't.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26But I said, well, I did study classical ballet till I was 17.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29So Ernest Maxim, who was the producer, said, well that's it,

0:04:29 > 0:04:32we'll get you to do a dance routine. That was how it started.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35OK, let's play the round now. Would you like to go first or second?

0:04:35 > 0:04:37I think I'd like to go second.

0:04:39 > 0:04:43Right then, CJ. Your first question then. Don't Stop Moving and Never

0:04:43 > 0:04:48Had A Dream Come True were UK number one hit singles for which group?

0:04:48 > 0:04:52S Club 7, All Saints or Hear'Say?

0:04:52 > 0:04:54I think

0:04:54 > 0:04:58they are both S Club 7. Let me just have a moment.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01Not Hear'Say, because they only had one number one, I think.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04And I don't think All Saints would have reduced themselves to that.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08So I think it's S Club 7.

0:05:08 > 0:05:09It's the right answer, yes. S Club 7, Don't Stop Moving

0:05:09 > 0:05:11and Never Had A Dream Come True.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13Glad you swerved that one, Angela?

0:05:13 > 0:05:16Oh, yes!

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Here's your first question.

0:05:18 > 0:05:22Part of the chorus of the song, It's a Long Way to Tipperary, runs

0:05:22 > 0:05:24"goodbye, Piccadilly, farewell..."

0:05:24 > 0:05:28where? Berkeley Square, Trafalgar Square, or Leicester Square?

0:05:28 > 0:05:31It's not exactly my era, but I do actually know it!

0:05:31 > 0:05:34I'm pretty sure it's "farewell, Leicester Square".

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Leicester Square, of course. Yes, the right answer.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40Okay. All square. CJ,

0:05:40 > 0:05:45in which century did the Austrian composer Anton Bruckner live?

0:05:45 > 0:05:4818th, 19th, or 20th?

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Hate these! Hate these!

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Don't like classical music.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54Hate these!

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Oh, dear, I'm not at all sure, but I thought it was later rather

0:05:57 > 0:05:59than earlier so I'll try 20th.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01OK, 20th century for Anton Bruckner.

0:06:01 > 0:06:05Angela, you said you fancied classical music more.

0:06:05 > 0:06:09- What do you think? - I think he's right. I think he's

0:06:09 > 0:06:1220th century. I think he's early 1900s.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15Well, nearly made it there, but it's not your question, so

0:06:15 > 0:06:17it doesn't matter. It's incorrect!

0:06:17 > 0:06:20- 19th!- 19th, indeed.

0:06:20 > 0:06:231824-1896.

0:06:23 > 0:06:27Just on the cusp. But that's good news for you, Angela. CJ not getting

0:06:27 > 0:06:30that one means you can take the lead on your second question.

0:06:30 > 0:06:31But only if I get it right!

0:06:31 > 0:06:35That's the very point! Yes! That is the important thing.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37Let's hope you can. Here you go.

0:06:37 > 0:06:42Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue was a hit in 1977 for which singer?

0:06:42 > 0:06:46Carly Simon, Crystal Gayle, or Elkie Brooks?

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Not Elkie Brooks, I don't think, so I think it's either Crystal

0:06:49 > 0:06:51Gayle or Carly Simon.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Crikey!

0:06:54 > 0:06:57I think it might be Carly Simon.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00OK, Carly Simon, Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue.

0:07:00 > 0:07:05You narrowed it down quite well, but didn't get it! It's Crystal Gayle.

0:07:05 > 0:07:08Listen, it's a shot to nothing, Angela, it stays all square.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10No particular damage done.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12And your third question, CJ.

0:07:12 > 0:07:18Which song was at the top of the UK singles chart on 4th May, 1979?

0:07:18 > 0:07:21The day Margaret Thatcher was elected prime minister.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?, Wuthering Heights, or Bright Eyes?

0:07:29 > 0:07:32I don't know it, but I'm hoping this is just ironic and it's

0:07:32 > 0:07:34Do Ya Think I'm Sexy!

0:07:37 > 0:07:39I don't think it was Bright Eyes, cos I think that's earlier.

0:07:39 > 0:07:43I'm just going to help it's unbelievably ironic,

0:07:43 > 0:07:45it's Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?

0:07:47 > 0:07:50It's not. It is Bright Eyes.

0:07:50 > 0:07:51Like you,

0:07:51 > 0:07:55I thought that was earlier. Maybe the film came out earlier.

0:07:55 > 0:07:59Okay, well, that's great news for you, Angela, because you've got

0:07:59 > 0:08:01a chance to win the round and get into the final round with this.

0:08:01 > 0:08:06The standard tuning for a regular six string guitar has both

0:08:06 > 0:08:12the lowest and the highest strings tuned to which note? A, D or E?

0:08:13 > 0:08:18Well, I don't know, because I don't play the guitar.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22I think an orchestra

0:08:22 > 0:08:27tunes to an A.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30I have to go with A, I can't think that it would be anything else.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32Because I just don't know!

0:08:32 > 0:08:35OK! Well, it's a one in three shot, then!

0:08:35 > 0:08:37A regular six string guitar, both the lowest and highest

0:08:37 > 0:08:41strings are tuned to E.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44E, Angela, E. But again, CJ got his previous question wrong,

0:08:44 > 0:08:47so it stays all square.

0:08:47 > 0:08:52We change it ever-so-slightly now, similar type of questions, but we're

0:08:52 > 0:08:56going to remove the options now to sort out a winner.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59CJ, what was the surname of the jazz pianist and vocalist and his singer

0:08:59 > 0:09:03daughter whose first names were

0:09:03 > 0:09:06Nathaniel, usually shortened to Nat, and Natalie?

0:09:06 > 0:09:08Cole.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Correct. Yes.

0:09:11 > 0:09:12I knew that!

0:09:12 > 0:09:15You'll know this. You'll know this, Angela.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18In 1994, Barbra Streisand had a UK

0:09:18 > 0:09:22top 20 hit single with As If We Never Said Goodbye,

0:09:22 > 0:09:26written for which stage musical with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber?

0:09:26 > 0:09:31I think it's the one that Don Black wrote the lyrics for.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34And I think it's Sunset Boulevard.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Yes, it is. Well done, Angela.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Sunset Boulevard. OK, still going strong.

0:09:39 > 0:09:46CJ, which avant-garde British group had a UK top-ten single in 1979

0:09:46 > 0:09:50with a cover version of the Berry Gordy song Money?

0:09:50 > 0:09:52Pass.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55Good, that's nice and quick.

0:09:55 > 0:09:58The group, the Flying Lizards.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00That doesn't enlighten anyone.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Isn't that great CJ got that?!

0:10:02 > 0:10:04That's great.

0:10:04 > 0:10:09Angela. Another chance to get into the final round, knock CJ out.

0:10:09 > 0:10:13Which US rock musician, who died in 1970,

0:10:13 > 0:10:18has a blue plaque dedicated to him in Brook Street in London's Mayfair?

0:10:20 > 0:10:22Ooh, I think I know this.

0:10:22 > 0:10:23I think it's Jimi Hendrix.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25You're rocking.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28It's the right answer, Angela.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30Rocking into the final round.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32You've knocked CJ out.

0:10:32 > 0:10:36Would you both come back and join your teams?

0:10:36 > 0:10:40A storming round by Angela means the Fab Five are all intact.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43The Eggheads have lost one of their team.

0:10:43 > 0:10:47We move on it to our next subject, this is Politics.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Who would like to play? It can't be Angela.

0:10:49 > 0:10:52Rosie?

0:10:52 > 0:10:55- I'm going to do general knowledge. - THEY CONFER

0:11:00 > 0:11:03- It's Sue.- Definitely.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Now, pick an Egghead. It can't be CJ.

0:11:05 > 0:11:09So, they are Pat, Barry, Chris and Daphne.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12She'll be very good, but we think

0:11:12 > 0:11:14it should be Daphne.

0:11:14 > 0:11:19I don't even know the name of my MP.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22OK, it's going to be Sue and Daphne playing politics.

0:11:22 > 0:11:27Could I ask you both to take your positions in the question room?

0:11:27 > 0:11:29OK, Sue, let's play the round.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32Politics - put that accumulated knowledge to the test here.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34Would you like to go first or second?

0:11:34 > 0:11:36I'll grab the mace and go first.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42In Greece, the leader of

0:11:42 > 0:11:47the military junta that seized power in 1967 was Colonel who?

0:11:51 > 0:11:54It began with a PAPA!

0:11:56 > 0:11:58My goodness.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01I have a feeling it might have been Papadopoulos.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03I'll go for Papadopoulos.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Well done, Sue. You sorted out your PAPAS.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08It's the right answer.

0:12:10 > 0:12:14And one to you, Sue, with Papadopoulos.

0:12:14 > 0:12:18And your first question Daphne. From 1950 to 1974 Enoch Powell was

0:12:18 > 0:12:21an MP for a constituency in which Midlands town?

0:12:25 > 0:12:28I'm not sure but I think it was Wolverhampton.

0:12:28 > 0:12:33Is the right answer. Well done. You have a tick.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36Back to you, Sue, second question.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40Anthony Giddens, the former director of the London School of Economics,

0:12:40 > 0:12:44significantly influenced Tony Blair's thinking on which subject?

0:12:49 > 0:12:53It wasn't the Northern Ireland Peace Process.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56I never understood what it meant and I'm not sure anyone else did either

0:12:56 > 0:12:58but I believe it was the Third Way.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00Yes, not much discussed these days.

0:13:00 > 0:13:04Rather disappeared. It's the Third Way. Well done.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07So, Daphne's second question for you.

0:13:07 > 0:13:12The writer and editor Norman Cousins once said which US President's

0:13:12 > 0:13:17motto was, if two wrongs don't make a right, try three?

0:13:20 > 0:13:23It sounds very much like Richard Nixon.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26It does indeed. It's the right answer.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Well, both playing really well.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Sue, third question.

0:13:30 > 0:13:35The name of which leading political party in Israel means forward?

0:13:40 > 0:13:43Ooh, that's a difficult one.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46I'm afraid I'm going to take a punt on this one.

0:13:46 > 0:13:51I'm going to say that it's Likud.

0:13:52 > 0:13:56OK, forward is...

0:13:56 > 0:13:58Kadima.

0:13:58 > 0:14:03So, Kadima is forward and Daphne,

0:14:03 > 0:14:06you go forward into the final round if you give me a correct answer.

0:14:06 > 0:14:10In 1970, the future Irish Prime Minister Charles Haughey

0:14:10 > 0:14:13was tried for but acquitted of which offence?

0:14:17 > 0:14:21I suppose the logical answer is gunrunning but...

0:14:24 > 0:14:26But why do I think this?

0:14:28 > 0:14:31I know it's silly

0:14:31 > 0:14:33but I'm going to go for hijacking.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36A lot of that kind of thing going on in Ireland north and south

0:14:36 > 0:14:37in the '70s.

0:14:37 > 0:14:41But it was the one you first thought of. It was gunrunning.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44There were concerns in the Republic of Ireland about

0:14:44 > 0:14:49the troubles in Northern Ireland kicking off at their height.

0:14:49 > 0:14:54So, a let-off, Sue. We go to Sudden Death as we saw Angela play which

0:14:54 > 0:14:58means I can't offer you any more options and this is your question.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Which female Labour MP and minister

0:15:00 > 0:15:05entered Parliament in 1982 as the Member for Peckham?

0:15:05 > 0:15:09Peckham, south of the river, south of the Thames river.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11I believe it was, and she's still

0:15:11 > 0:15:14very much there, it was Harriet Harman.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17Yes, it was, Sue. Well done. Harriet Harman.

0:15:17 > 0:15:22The constituency changed its name in '97 to Camberwell and Peckham

0:15:22 > 0:15:24but in '82 it was just Peckham.

0:15:24 > 0:15:28So, Daphne, from 1949 to 1957

0:15:28 > 0:15:31Sidney Holland served as the Prime Minister of which country?

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Oh, dear.

0:15:33 > 0:15:37It's going to be fifty-fifty.

0:15:37 > 0:15:41It's either Australia or New Zealand.

0:15:41 > 0:15:48And as usual, I'll pick the wrong one and say

0:15:48 > 0:15:49Australia.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51It's the wrong one.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53It's New Zealand!

0:15:53 > 0:15:54I think you did well

0:15:54 > 0:15:58narrowing it down to Australia or New Zealand out of your own head.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02But that means another member of the Fab Five progresses into the final

0:16:02 > 0:16:07round, that's you, Sue. Would you both come back and join your teams?

0:16:07 > 0:16:13Eggheads, the Fab Five swatting you off like flies at the moment.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15As it stands, you've lost two brains from the final round.

0:16:15 > 0:16:21The Fab Five are all there. Our next head to head is Science.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23What joy!

0:16:23 > 0:16:26- It gets better - Jennie, Jan or Rosie to play.- You said...

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Oh, no, you can't do another round.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31Only Jennie, Jan or Rosie can play.

0:16:31 > 0:16:35- I'm hopeless. - It's not one of my things at all.

0:16:35 > 0:16:39- I don't think anything is my thing! - Are you going for it?

0:16:39 > 0:16:40You need to pick an Egghead.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43There's that bit, too.

0:16:43 > 0:16:44We'll go for Barry.

0:16:44 > 0:16:49Rosie against Barry and the subject is Science.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52Could I ask you both to please go to the question room?

0:16:52 > 0:16:54Rosie, first or second?

0:16:54 > 0:16:58I think I'll go first and get it over with.

0:17:00 > 0:17:04Good luck, Rosie. The first question coming up, because of its ability

0:17:04 > 0:17:08to absorb electromagnetic radiation, which metal is used to provide

0:17:08 > 0:17:13protective shielding around nuclear reactors and X-ray equipment?

0:17:15 > 0:17:18- It's lead.- It is.

0:17:18 > 0:17:22Don't beat around the bush. Lead is the right answer.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24There you are.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28Barry, the pons is a tract of nerve fibres in which organ

0:17:28 > 0:17:31of the human body?

0:17:31 > 0:17:34Not the liver.

0:17:34 > 0:17:35Just trying to think if there's

0:17:35 > 0:17:38a pons in the heart. My instinctive answer would be the brain,

0:17:38 > 0:17:43because I think that's where the brain stem comes into the brain.

0:17:43 > 0:17:44I'll go for the brain.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Yours is obviously very active. It's the right answer.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49Brain is correct.

0:17:49 > 0:17:55Rosie, the Newton named after Sir Isaac Newton is the absolute unit

0:17:55 > 0:17:59of what in the international system of units?

0:17:59 > 0:18:02I'm going to go for Force.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04You've gone for Force.

0:18:04 > 0:18:09- I've gone for Force.- You have got the right answer.

0:18:09 > 0:18:15Barry, the Schick test introduced in 1913 is used

0:18:15 > 0:18:18is used to determine the susceptibility to which disease?

0:18:21 > 0:18:23Diphtheria.

0:18:23 > 0:18:27Is the right answer. You're rattling out these answers. 2-2.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31Third question could decide a winner of the round.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34Rosie, which poisonous substance was

0:18:34 > 0:18:39often used in the production of green wallpaper in the 19th century?

0:18:42 > 0:18:46Green wallpaper? Why not pink wallpaper?

0:18:48 > 0:18:51I don't know. I'm going to go for Arsenic. Arsenic and Old Lace.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53Arsenic and wallpaper.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56It's the right answer.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59- Well done, Rosie. - There's a theory, Dermot...

0:18:59 > 0:19:03- Napoleon! - That's what I was going to say.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05His wallpaper was full of arsenic.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07That's right and when he was imprisoned on St Helena

0:19:07 > 0:19:13his bedroom had green wallpaper and some tests were taken on Napoleon's

0:19:13 > 0:19:16hair some time after he'd been transferred to Hotel des Invalides

0:19:16 > 0:19:19in Paris and they found large quantities of arsenic in his hair.

0:19:19 > 0:19:23Well, you are behind and need to get this.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27Or another Egghead bites the dust.

0:19:27 > 0:19:31The Wollaston medal inaugurated in 1831 is

0:19:31 > 0:19:34an award for which of the sciences?

0:19:36 > 0:19:40That's a tough one but I think it's Astronomy.

0:19:40 > 0:19:44It's a tough one. But it's for geology.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52I don't think they had invented geology then. Or psychology.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55All those

0:19:55 > 0:19:58green ticks there after the green wallpaper, rather appropriate.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00You're through to the final round as well, Rosie.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:20:03 > 0:20:08Going swimmingly for the Fab Five at the moment. Three Eggheads gone!

0:20:08 > 0:20:10And none of the Fab Five.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13But will the Eggheads take this lying down, or will they fight back?

0:20:13 > 0:20:16The last head-to-head before the final round.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18This one is Arts and Books. Jennie or Jan to play it.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20Arts and Books.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25Jenny. Literature degree, off you go.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Stay with us and pick an Egghead.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30- The remaining ones are Chris and Pat.- I'm going for Pat.

0:20:30 > 0:20:35Let's have Pat and Jennie into the question room, please.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Jennie, do you want to go first or second?

0:20:38 > 0:20:40I'd like to leave the room, actually.

0:20:40 > 0:20:44I will go... second.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48That puts you in to bat, Pat.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51And your first question is this. What was the name of the artist

0:20:51 > 0:20:55and older sister of the Welsh painter Augustus John?

0:20:55 > 0:20:58Lyn John, Dawn John or Gwen John?

0:20:58 > 0:21:02I think she was named Gwen John.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04Augustus John's sister, Gwen John.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06That is the right answer.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08One to you, Pat. OK, Jennie, good luck with this.

0:21:08 > 0:21:12Which poet laureate wrote biographies of John Keats and Philip Larkin?

0:21:12 > 0:21:16Andrew Motion, Cecil Day-Lewis or John Betjeman?

0:21:16 > 0:21:20Um... unsurprisingly, I don't know.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Um... I'm going to say...

0:21:23 > 0:21:27I don't think it was Andrew Motion.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Um...

0:21:29 > 0:21:33I'm going to say John Betjeman.

0:21:33 > 0:21:37OK, John Betjeman, biographies of Keats and Larkin.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39- Is wrong?- Is wrong. It's Andrew Motion.- Oh, no!

0:21:39 > 0:21:45You can comfort yourself that it wasn't one you were considering.

0:21:45 > 0:21:47But it is the early question.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49Anything can happen. Pat can slip up on any of the next two, I'm sure.

0:21:49 > 0:21:55Pat, which Charles Dickens character is always describing himself and his

0:21:55 > 0:21:57circumstances as "very 'umble"?

0:21:57 > 0:22:02Uriah Heep, Abel Magwitch or Edmund Sparkler?

0:22:02 > 0:22:07Um... before his heavy metal days, it was Uriah Heep.

0:22:07 > 0:22:08Very nice, I like it. Very good.

0:22:08 > 0:22:12It is the right answer, yes, Uriah Heep.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15And your second question, Jennie.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Let's get you going. You need to get this, actually.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19Which artist

0:22:19 > 0:22:24painted Christ in the house of his parents, now owned by the Tate,

0:22:24 > 0:22:27which portrays the young Jesus in Joseph's carpentry workshop?

0:22:27 > 0:22:32Is it JMW Turner, John Everett Millais or Edward Burne-Jones?

0:22:32 > 0:22:37I don't imagine, for some reason, that it was Turner.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39So it probably is! Um...

0:22:39 > 0:22:42I am going to go for Burne-Jones.

0:22:42 > 0:22:43- OK...- Oh, it's wrong!

0:22:43 > 0:22:46It is wrong, Jennie!

0:22:46 > 0:22:49It's just unlucky. If you've got to guess at two, it's

0:22:49 > 0:22:52worse than tossing a coin, isn't it? It's one in three. It is Millais.

0:22:52 > 0:22:57John Everett Millais, the Christ in the house of his parents.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59So it brings the round to a rather abrupt end.

0:22:59 > 0:23:03You won't be playing in the final round, Jennie.

0:23:03 > 0:23:04Come back and join your teams.

0:23:04 > 0:23:08So, this is what we have been playing towards. It is

0:23:08 > 0:23:11time for the final round, which as always is General Knowledge.

0:23:11 > 0:23:13I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed

0:23:13 > 0:23:15to take part in this round.

0:23:15 > 0:23:20So Jennie from the Fab Five and CJ, Daphne - yes, you - and Barry

0:23:20 > 0:23:25from the Eggheads, would you please leave the studio?

0:23:25 > 0:23:26Jan, Angela, Sue and Rosie,

0:23:26 > 0:23:30you're playing to win the Fab Five £2,000 for your chosen charity.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33Chris and Pat, you're playing for something which money can't buy.

0:23:33 > 0:23:37- Do you know what it is? - Yes, it's reputation.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40Well said, Chris, yes. The Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn. This time,

0:23:43 > 0:23:46the questions are general knowledge and you are allowed to confer.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48That is the big difference, you are not on your own. Fab Five,

0:23:48 > 0:23:53are your four brains better than the Eggheads' two?

0:23:53 > 0:23:56And Fab Five, would you like to go first or second?

0:23:56 > 0:23:58Second, please.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02It seems to be working, doesn't it, going second? OK, Eggheads,

0:24:02 > 0:24:05it's your first question, then. The early years of which media

0:24:05 > 0:24:10mogul's publishing career included taking charge in the 1950s

0:24:10 > 0:24:14of the Adelaide News, a paper he inherited from his father?

0:24:14 > 0:24:17Is it Robert Maxwell, Ted Turner or Rupert Murdoch?

0:24:17 > 0:24:20Ted Turner is American, so it's not him.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23Robert Maxwell, the less said, the better.

0:24:23 > 0:24:24He was a Czech originally.

0:24:24 > 0:24:28So it has got to be an Australian, hasn't it? The Adelaide Times.

0:24:28 > 0:24:29It's got to be Rupert Murdoch.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31Murdoch's father was a press man, as well.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34- It's Rupert Murdoch, Dermot.- OK, the Australian connection, clearly.

0:24:34 > 0:24:38It is the right answer, Rupert Murdoch.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41Your first question, Fab Five. You're the Fab Four now.

0:24:41 > 0:24:45The four Inns of Court in London, the associations to which all

0:24:45 > 0:24:49barristers in England and Wales must belong, are known as Middle Temple,

0:24:49 > 0:24:52Inner Temple, Lincoln's Inn and which other?

0:24:52 > 0:24:55Black's Inn, Gray's Inn or White's Inn?

0:24:55 > 0:24:58The four Inns of Court in London, the associations

0:24:58 > 0:25:01to which all barristers in England and Wales must belong, are known as

0:25:01 > 0:25:05Middle Temple, Inner Temple, Lincoln's Inn and which other?

0:25:05 > 0:25:08Right. Unanimously, Gray's Inn.

0:25:08 > 0:25:11Gray's Inn it is, that's correct.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Gray's Inn.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16And so you have one apiece.

0:25:16 > 0:25:21And Eggheads, in 2009, cricketer Philip Hughes became the youngest

0:25:21 > 0:25:26person to score a test century in each innings for which country?

0:25:26 > 0:25:29South Africa, Australia or New Zealand?

0:25:29 > 0:25:31I think he is an Australian prodigy.

0:25:31 > 0:25:35He's a super new talent from Australia.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38I wouldn't know! No relation of mine.

0:25:38 > 0:25:42- We think he's Australia, Dermot, so it'll be Australia.- OK.

0:25:42 > 0:25:46You've almost had two questions in a row where the answer's Australian.

0:25:46 > 0:25:50It is the right answer, yes. Philip Hughes, the Australian

0:25:50 > 0:25:52player, the wunderkind.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55OK, Fab Five.

0:25:55 > 0:26:00Sphairistike is seen by many as a precursor to which game?

0:26:00 > 0:26:02I am going to spell this for you after I give you the options.

0:26:02 > 0:26:05Tennis, ice hockey or water polo.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07- How do you spell it? - I am just about to do that for you.

0:26:07 > 0:26:14Sphairistike, S-P-H-A-I-R-I-S-T-I-K-E.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17It must be Greek. Don't you think it's a Greek word?

0:26:17 > 0:26:21They didn't play ice hockey in Greece.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24Can you say... It's a prelude to it?

0:26:24 > 0:26:30It is seen by many as a precursor to which game? A precursor.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Tennis, ice hockey or water polo?

0:26:33 > 0:26:36What does a precursor mean?

0:26:36 > 0:26:39- Precursor means what it was before it became water polo.- It depends how

0:26:39 > 0:26:43far back you want to go, Dermot? How far would you like to go?

0:26:45 > 0:26:48Do you think so? All right. OK.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50Fine.

0:26:50 > 0:26:52The girls think it's water polo.

0:26:52 > 0:26:55Water polo for sphairistike.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57It is seen by many as a precursor to...

0:26:57 > 0:26:59Tennis.

0:26:59 > 0:27:02- What?!- Yes, tennis.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05It's the original version of lawn tennis as opposed to real tennis.

0:27:05 > 0:27:09Sphairistike is Greek for "ball game".

0:27:09 > 0:27:15Ah! OK, well, it means the Eggheads have a chance to win it here

0:27:15 > 0:27:19if you get this. If not, another question for the Fab Five.

0:27:19 > 0:27:20Oneiromancy

0:27:20 > 0:27:24is the practice of interpreting what in order to fortell the future?

0:27:24 > 0:27:32Animal entrails, weather patterns or dreams? O-N-E-I-R-O-M-A-N-C-Y.

0:27:32 > 0:27:35Animal entrails is haspercy...whatever the proper term

0:27:35 > 0:27:37is. I don't know weather patterns... I think it's dreams.

0:27:37 > 0:27:40- Oneiromancy is dreams.- Right.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43We're unanimous on this, Dermot. It's the interpretation of dreams.

0:27:43 > 0:27:47You've just shattered the Fab Five's dreams.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49It is the right answer, Eggheads. You've won.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51APPLAUSE

0:27:53 > 0:27:56Don't clap. It only encourages them!

0:27:56 > 0:27:58Yeah, but you're got the moral victory.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00Look at that in the head-to-heads. It is the first time in

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Celebrity Eggheads where they've been beaten

0:28:03 > 0:28:053-1 in the head-to-heads, where there have been four of

0:28:05 > 0:28:09the challengers against two of them. So, thank you very much, Fab Five.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11Great to see you but the Eggheads have done what comes naturally

0:28:11 > 0:28:14and they still reign supreme over quizland.

0:28:14 > 0:28:15You haven't won the £2,000,

0:28:15 > 0:28:18which means the money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Eggheads, congratulations.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22Who will beat you? Join us next time to see

0:28:22 > 0:28:25if a team from the One Show have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:25 > 0:28:27£3,000 says they don't.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29Until then, goodbye.
