0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:15Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads,
0:00:26 > 0:00:29the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:29 > 0:00:33pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36And you might recognise them as they've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38They are the Eggheads.
0:00:38 > 0:00:43And tackling our awesome quiz Titans today are the Vinyl Countdown.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46It's often said that some people have a face for radio, but this team
0:00:46 > 0:00:49of former Radio One DJs certainly bucks that trend.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52What a shame the same can't be said for the Eggheads!
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Let's meet the team.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hello, I'm Tony Blackburn. I was the first voice on Radio One and I'm 36 years old.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Mike Read, Radio One, 1978 to 1991.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05David Jensen, known as "The Kid".
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Radio One '76 to '84.
0:01:07 > 0:01:13Hello, I'm David Hamilton. I was one of the very early DJs on Radio One when we used to play cylinders.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Hello, I'm Ed "Stewpot" Stewart and, like Tony Blackburn, I was one of the originals on Radio One
0:01:17 > 0:01:20and my most favourite programme was Junior Choice.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Welcome to you, Vinyl Countdown.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26I must say, we are so excited to have you in the studio here.
0:01:26 > 0:01:30The Eggheads have been talking about little else because it's a kind of staple, isn't it, of a radio show?
0:01:30 > 0:01:33- You must all have done so many quizzes.- Yes.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37You must all have asked so many questions of so many members of the public at one time.
0:01:37 > 0:01:38I'm sure some of you are still doing it.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Do you ever remember any of the answers?
0:01:40 > 0:01:43No, we've lost so many times it's unbelievable!
0:01:43 > 0:01:45But it's always enjoyable, always enjoyable.
0:01:45 > 0:01:50When people know that you ask the questions on some shows, like on Pop Quiz, they expect you
0:01:50 > 0:01:53to know all the answers as well because you ask the questions.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Mike, when you mention Pop Quiz there, you did know.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58That was the point, you did, by and large, know the answers as well.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- Did you write a lot of the questions?- A lot of them, yeah.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04We'll chat with you all as you play your rounds.
0:02:04 > 0:02:09Now, every day there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers' chosen charity.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16So, Vinyl Countdown, the Eggheads have won the last six games
0:02:16 > 0:02:20and that means £7,000 says YOU can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23And the first battle will be on the subject of Arts and Books.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25Arts and Books.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Now who fancies this?
0:02:27 > 0:02:29I think probably Mike on this one.
0:02:29 > 0:02:35- Mike is very artistic.- I love the way Mike is saying nothing! - Is that all right?
0:02:35 > 0:02:39I'm happy to go for it. I feel I may fail, but I don't know who's weak?
0:02:39 > 0:02:43I think their side are probably all pretty strong in this area.
0:02:43 > 0:02:44- I think Barry.- Barry.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48- Barry.- OK.- All right, happy with that, Mike?- Moderately.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51That'll do then. Let's get you into the Question Room.
0:02:51 > 0:02:52It's going to be Mike and Barry
0:02:52 > 0:02:55playing our opening round, Arts and Books.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Could you go to the Question Room just to make sure you can't confer?
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Let's play the round. Arts and Books. You get to choose, Mike.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Do you want to go first or second?
0:03:04 > 0:03:06- I'll go first please, Dermot. - OK, good luck.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12Up against our Barry there, and the first question is yours.
0:03:12 > 0:03:17What type of creature is Cujo in the Stephen King novel of the same name?
0:03:17 > 0:03:20Cat, horse or dog? Cujo.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Well, I hold my hand up and say I don't know the book.
0:03:22 > 0:03:26That's not my area of reading at all.
0:03:26 > 0:03:32Maybe, if we're looking sort of sci fi, mystic, we might be looking more
0:03:32 > 0:03:35at something like a cat than a dog.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Dog's aren't terribly mystic.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Maybe I might strike the dog, I think, initially.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42I'm going to go the non-equine route.
0:03:42 > 0:03:47I'm going to go for the feline route. I'm going for cat.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49OK, cat. Cujo.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52It's actually a dog, Mike,
0:03:52 > 0:03:55after all that! OK, Barry, first question.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans
0:03:57 > 0:04:02are a favourite confection for characters in which series of books?
0:04:06 > 0:04:08I've often wished I could try these beans,
0:04:08 > 0:04:11but they occur in all the Harry Potter novels.
0:04:11 > 0:04:15Yeah, they do. Mike nodding, he knew that. Harry Potter is correct.
0:04:15 > 0:04:16I've read them all, read them all.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20Right, well, let's hope you have read this,
0:04:20 > 0:04:22your second question.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25The fictional detective Dave Robicheaux
0:04:25 > 0:04:28is a creation of which crime novelist?
0:04:33 > 0:04:35I thought I was well read! I've never heard of him.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38But I have heard people in the past say,
0:04:38 > 0:04:40"I'm going to go right down the middle",
0:04:40 > 0:04:43and for me this seems a brilliant option this time
0:04:43 > 0:04:45as my last answer was on the right.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49I can think of no better reason for going for the wonderfully
0:04:49 > 0:04:53talented and creator of Dave Robicheaux, James Lee Burke.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55How did you know that? That is the right answer.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03OK, Barry, second question. Rayonism was a style of abstract art
0:05:03 > 0:05:06that was developed in which country in the early 20th century?
0:05:08 > 0:05:10I've seen some Rayonist pictures
0:05:10 > 0:05:13and I'm just trying to remember who painted them.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17I think the Rayonist artists were Russian, so that's my answer, Russia.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20There Rayonists were indeed Russian, that's right.
0:05:20 > 0:05:25So, Barry, you have two, Mike has one and you need to get this, Mike.
0:05:25 > 0:05:26In which year was Gunter Grass
0:05:26 > 0:05:28awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature?
0:05:32 > 0:05:36Had it been 1999 I think I might have heard more about it
0:05:36 > 0:05:39and remembered more about it.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41And fading into the past
0:05:41 > 0:05:46probably equally a little bit more about 1989, so I'm
0:05:46 > 0:05:53favouring the Neanderthal period of 1979.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56I feel that he was up there doing his business at the
0:05:56 > 0:06:00same time that Elvis Costello was at number two with Oliver's Army.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02It is... Barry, do you know?
0:06:02 > 0:06:04It's much more recent than that.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06I'm tossing up... I think it was '99.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08It's the latest one, it's 1999.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10He's been writing a long time,
0:06:10 > 0:06:12but 1999 for the Nobel Prize for Literature,
0:06:12 > 0:06:15which means, Mike, the round is over. Barry has taken it.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18It means he'll be in the final round and you won't be.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:06:23 > 0:06:24OK, then. Well, after that round,
0:06:24 > 0:06:27the Vinyl Countdown the one brain down. The Eggheads are all there.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29It's only the first round, anyway.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31So, let's play our second round and this one is Music.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Well, now, do you have a dilemma because you've played Mike?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38- He can't play again.- Yes, it's a bit tricky for us now, isn't it?
0:06:38 > 0:06:41- Well, we all like music, don't we? - Do you do music?
0:06:41 > 0:06:43- I'll have a go.- Yeah, go on.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47I'll have a go. Yeah. Now who shall I pick?
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Who shall I pick for Music? I think Chris.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52- Chris.- OK.- Chris.
0:06:52 > 0:06:57OK, David and Chris, into the Question Room, please.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00David, first of all, may ask where did the "Diddy" come from,
0:07:00 > 0:07:01if you know what I mean,
0:07:01 > 0:07:04because I've seen you walking round the studio, you're not!
0:07:04 > 0:07:08Well, I did a series with Ken Dodd many moons ago
0:07:08 > 0:07:09called Doddy's Music Box
0:07:09 > 0:07:12and when we were rehearsing before the show,
0:07:12 > 0:07:16in front of all the cameramen and the make up artists
0:07:16 > 0:07:19and stage hands and so on, he called me Diddy.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21And he took me to one side afterwards and he said,
0:07:21 > 0:07:23"Do you mind me calling you that
0:07:23 > 0:07:25"because if you do I won't do it anymore?"
0:07:25 > 0:07:28He said, "But if you don't mind, I think it'll stick".
0:07:28 > 0:07:30And I've actually been stuck with it now for 40 years!
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Fantastic stuff. Let's play the round, then.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36Music, of course. And, David, do you want to go first or second?
0:07:36 > 0:07:40Well, I think, keeping up Mike's tradition, I think I'll go first.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45OK, first question then is this.
0:07:45 > 0:07:50Duncan James and Simon Webbe found fame as members of which group?
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Well, it wasn't Take That,
0:07:54 > 0:07:58it wasn't Westlife, so I think it's got to be Blue.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00It does. That's right, it is Blue.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Chris, your first question.
0:08:03 > 0:08:08The singer Morrissey was born in the suburbs of which city?
0:08:10 > 0:08:15NORFOLK ACCENT: No, he's not from Norwich, that I can say for sure.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18I don't think he's Glaswegian.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21I think he's part of the general gloom scene
0:08:21 > 0:08:22that started out in Manchester
0:08:22 > 0:08:26in the late '70s and early '80s, so I'll have to go with Manchester.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29I think, to be fair, with reference to Morrissey,
0:08:29 > 0:08:32that's a pretty decent description, the gloom scene!
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Yeah, it's right. Manchester, suburbs of Manchester.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Your second question, David.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39What is the name of the Parisian opera house
0:08:39 > 0:08:42that was inaugurated in 1989?
0:08:46 > 0:08:49I'm not sure that they would have called it Opera Bastille.
0:08:53 > 0:08:58Montmatre, I'm not sure whether it's in that area,
0:08:58 > 0:09:02so I'm going to have a shot in the dark here
0:09:02 > 0:09:04and say Opera Eiffel.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07OK, Opera Eiffel, yeah.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10It's not. No, David, that's incorrect.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13- It is... Do you know, Chris? - It's not the Opera Montmatre, is it?
0:09:13 > 0:09:15No, therefore... I can tell you now!
0:09:15 > 0:09:18It's the Bastille, because looking at that date,
0:09:18 > 0:09:22it's a very significant date for the French, 1989, wasn't it?
0:09:22 > 0:09:25- 200th anniversary of the revolution. - 200 years, yeah.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27OK, well, nothing there for David.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29See how Chris does with his second one.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Now, I laugh, Vinyl Countdown,
0:09:31 > 0:09:34because when I read the question I will explain all.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39Overload was the 2000 debut single of which all girl British band?
0:09:42 > 0:09:44It's been a bit of a fallow area for him
0:09:44 > 0:09:46over the years on Eggheads, girl bands!
0:09:46 > 0:09:49I think Mis-Teeq and the Sugababes are American,
0:09:49 > 0:09:51so it's got to be Girls Aloud.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54Good, good! Straight to form there!
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Yeah, it's Sugababes.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58It's always the Sugababes!
0:09:58 > 0:10:01You see, that's what you've developed, isn't it?
0:10:01 > 0:10:04You see, this time it was the Sugababes.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06That's a classic Chris music question.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07OK, well, that's good for you, David.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10It stays all square and a question here
0:10:10 > 0:10:12might suit you better, I suspect.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15Tom Jones achieved his first UK number one single
0:10:15 > 0:10:17in 1965 with which song?
0:10:21 > 0:10:25Well, Dermot, thank you for that! It is more my era and I always remember
0:10:25 > 0:10:28Jimmy Tarbuck saying about Tom Jones,
0:10:28 > 0:10:32he's the only man who wears his trousers out from the inside!
0:10:32 > 0:10:36And the song was It's Not Unusual.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38There you are. Yes, it's completely correct.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42It's Not Unusual, so you're now in the lead.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Potential turnaround here. You've got to get this.
0:10:44 > 0:10:49Who wrote the songs What Is This Thing Called Love and You Do Something To Me?
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Not Gershwin.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59And they're not show tunes, so I don't think it'd be Richard Rogers.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02- It's got to be Cole Porter.- It does! That is the right answer, Chris.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05You've taken us into sudden death.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08And that means no choices, David,
0:11:08 > 0:11:12you've just got to give me a straight answer. Here we go.
0:11:12 > 0:11:18Which Gilbert and Sullivan operetta is set in the Tower of London?
0:11:18 > 0:11:21It's awful, but I can think of any others, so
0:11:21 > 0:11:24I'll have to say the Mikado, but I'm sure that's not the right answer.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27OK, Mikado, and it's not, I'll confirm that.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30- And I think you know, Ed, don't you? - Yeomen Of The Guard.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Yeah, the other guys know, it's The Yeomen Of The Guard.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34- Oh, of course! - The Yeomen Of The Guard.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36I say, without the list there...
0:11:36 > 0:11:38If you had a pick of one from three
0:11:38 > 0:11:40you would have easily picked that out, of course.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Yes.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45But much harder in sudden death.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Let's see what Chris does. Another opera one.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51In which Puccini opera does the ship the Abraham Lincoln appear?
0:11:51 > 0:11:56That must be Lieutenant Pinkerton's ship in Madam Butterfly.
0:11:56 > 0:11:57It is correct.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Yes, it is Madam Butterfly and, yes, Lieutenant Pinkerton.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02It means, bad luck, David,
0:12:02 > 0:12:05I thought you'd do it. You're not in the final round.
0:12:05 > 0:12:06Chris, you will be there.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:12:09 > 0:12:11OK, well, as it stands now, Vinyl Countdown,
0:12:11 > 0:12:13you've lost two brains from the final round.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15The Eggheads are all still there.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19Let's try and knock one out with this next category, Food and Drink.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Now, Mike and David, Diddy David,
0:12:21 > 0:12:26have played, so we've got Tony, David "The Kid" or Ed to play.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28- Go on, you do it.- What? - Are you going to do it?
0:12:28 > 0:12:31- Food and drink. All right. - Ed's going to do it.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33OK, Ed. Now, pick an Egghead.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35So, who do we have? We have Barry and Chris this end.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38So, going up there it's Pat, Judith or Kevin?
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Kevin. You and I, Kev.
0:12:40 > 0:12:45Let's have then Ed and Kevin into the Question Room, please.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47So, Ed, do you want to go first to second?
0:12:47 > 0:12:48Oh, I'll go first, yeah, yeah.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53All right, good luck, Ed. Here you go.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55In dinner party customs, after a meal a decanter of
0:12:55 > 0:12:59which drink is traditionally passed around the table from right to left
0:12:59 > 0:13:01until all the guests are served?
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Well, in my house it would never be whisky because I don't like whisky.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10I love champagne, but that's the start of the meal.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13And, of course, it's port, which I also like,
0:13:13 > 0:13:15but it's not very good for you if you've got the gout.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17No, so stay off the port.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20- That's right.- OK, it's the right answer, yes. Port is correct.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26OK, Kevin. Popsicle is an American term
0:13:26 > 0:13:29for the type of confection known in the UK by what name?
0:13:32 > 0:13:35That's a bit of frozen flavoured water ice
0:13:35 > 0:13:37on a stick, so it's an ice lolly.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40It is, yes. An ice lolly is correct and straight back to Ed.
0:13:40 > 0:13:44What nickname was given to the refreshing drink switchel
0:13:44 > 0:13:47due to its popularity with US farm hands?
0:13:52 > 0:13:56Switchel, never heard of it. I wouldn't have an idea,
0:13:56 > 0:13:59so I'll just go for corncutter's cordial.
0:13:59 > 0:14:00Switchel, corncutter's cordial.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04It's not. Do you know, Kevin, of the other two?
0:14:04 > 0:14:06I'd have gone for haymaker's punch.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Funnily enough, in boxing there is a punch called a haymaker, as well.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Yeah. Well, yeah. But that is the answer, haymaker's punch.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Switchel, anyway, is haymaker's punch.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18OK, well, Kevin, your second question,
0:14:18 > 0:14:22what does gluh mean in the name of the beverage gluhwein?
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Because it's a winter drink, it's the sort of thing you get at
0:14:28 > 0:14:30traditional German Christmas markets,
0:14:30 > 0:14:33presumably it's meant to make you glow against the cold.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35So I'll say glow.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37And bring on the glee.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39It is glow, that's right.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41The gluh in gluhwein.
0:14:41 > 0:14:42So it's glow wine.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45All right, well, you need to get this, Ed.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48What name is going to a mixture of finely diced vegetables, often
0:14:48 > 0:14:51cooked in butter and used to flavour soups and sauces?
0:14:56 > 0:15:00You know, you watch this programme at home, as I do an awful lot,
0:15:00 > 0:15:02and you think, "Oh, I know that."
0:15:02 > 0:15:04But it's never like that when you actually come to do it,
0:15:04 > 0:15:07I can reassure anybody who's thought of taking part in this quiz.
0:15:07 > 0:15:08It seems easy from a distance.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11I think it's brunello.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13It's not.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17- No!- Chris, you thought it was?
0:15:17 > 0:15:20You know, me and Isambard Kingdom Brunel, but no.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23- I think it's brunoise, actually. - It is brunoise.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27Finely diced vegetables, cooked in butter and used to flavour soups.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30It's always a tricky round, this, as Kevin quite often finds out.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32But this time he's through.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36You're in the final round, Kevin. You won't be there, Edward.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Could you both please come back and join your teams.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41As it stands, The Vinyl Countdown
0:15:41 > 0:15:43have lost three brains from the final round,
0:15:43 > 0:15:45and all those Eggheads are still there.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49Our next subject is Sport, and you or David to play it.
0:15:49 > 0:15:50Tony or David.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53I know nothing about sport at all.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57Got to be David. He does a world sports programme, he's the man.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00- He's the king of sport. - I'll do it, I'll volunteer.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03OK, and who would you like to play from the Eggheads?
0:16:03 > 0:16:05Let me remind you, Pat and Judith.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Judith is pointing at Pat,
0:16:07 > 0:16:11- which means that I'm going to go for Judith.- That backfired, Judith.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14It's my fave(!)
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Yeah, she's bluffing.
0:16:16 > 0:16:21We'll have The Kid and The Dame into the question room, please.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Do you want to go first or second, then, Dave?
0:16:23 > 0:16:27Well, in the Radio One time-honoured tradition of going first,
0:16:27 > 0:16:28I will follow and go first.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33All right, good luck. Let's get you through.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36Tim Foster, Steve Redgrave, James Cracknell
0:16:36 > 0:16:40and which other rower won the men's coxless four gold medal
0:16:40 > 0:16:41at the 2000 Olympics?
0:16:45 > 0:16:50I'm not so familiar with Andy Holmes or Greg Searle.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53But I know that Matthew Pinsent won a gold,
0:16:53 > 0:16:56and I would imagine he's probably the missing name in that line-up.
0:16:56 > 0:17:01Sir Matthew, yes, it's the right answer. Well done.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03Judith. Jump shots and finger rolls
0:17:03 > 0:17:06are shooting techniques in which ball sport?
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Well, it couldn't be football, then, because
0:17:11 > 0:17:13football's to do with feet on the whole, isn't it?
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Unless it's Diego Maradona.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18It's got to be basketball.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20It can't be polo, either.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24Jump shots and finger rolls are shooting techniques in basketball,
0:17:24 > 0:17:25yes, of course. You got that.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27So, David,
0:17:27 > 0:17:31as a result of a takeover in November 2009,
0:17:31 > 0:17:33the Brawn GP Formula One team
0:17:33 > 0:17:36adopted what name for the 2010 season?
0:17:39 > 0:17:44I don't think it was Toyota, who had an association with Williams then.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Renault were up and running in their own right as a team.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51So I think the right answer to this is Mercedes.
0:17:51 > 0:17:52It is. That is correct.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54You have two.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56All right.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Judith, which team defeated England 1-0
0:17:59 > 0:18:02in a major shock of the 1950 football World Cup?
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Oh, I think I know this.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10I think it's USA.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12It's the right answer, yes, the USA.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16It was England's first appearance in the World Cup finals, wasn't it?
0:18:16 > 0:18:20Indeed. And the Haitian born player scored the winning goal.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22A chap called Gaetjens.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24OK, right, third question, David,
0:18:24 > 0:18:25and if you get this, it might put
0:18:25 > 0:18:30you into the final round depending on how Judith answers her third one.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33Which of his opponents' faces did Muhammad Ali
0:18:33 > 0:18:36say should be donated to the US Bureau of Wildlife?
0:18:39 > 0:18:43This is a tough question because he used very colourful language
0:18:43 > 0:18:44against all his opponents.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47I'm just guessing, because you're saying Muhammad Ali
0:18:47 > 0:18:49and not Cassius Clay, it's Joe Frazier.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53Well done, that's right. Yes, you have a full set there,
0:18:53 > 0:18:57three out of three, and Judith must get this to continue.
0:18:57 > 0:19:01Judith, which cycling term refers to an assistant who feeds,
0:19:01 > 0:19:05clothes and massages riders during a big race?
0:19:07 > 0:19:09Well, a commissaire
0:19:09 > 0:19:13is someone who opens doors in a hotel, isn't it?
0:19:13 > 0:19:16A domestique is a maid,
0:19:16 > 0:19:21but a soigneur is someone who cares.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24So, I mean, if it follows the literal translation of the French,
0:19:24 > 0:19:26I should think it's soigneur.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30Your knowledge of French helping you there, it's the right answer.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Into sudden death, and David,
0:19:33 > 0:19:38which tennis player defeated the German Gottfried von Cramm
0:19:38 > 0:19:43in the final of the Wimbledon men's singles championship
0:19:43 > 0:19:44in 1935 and 1936?
0:19:44 > 0:19:47I really have no idea.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49I'm just going to pick... it's probably before his time
0:19:49 > 0:19:52but I can't think of another name, I just wouldn't know. Fred Perry.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Is correct!
0:19:54 > 0:19:56You're doing really well with these.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00Fred Perry, who won it in '35 and '36.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03OK, Judith, in which sport did Britain's Ray Stevens
0:20:03 > 0:20:07and Nicola Fairbrother win individual silver medals
0:20:07 > 0:20:09at the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games?
0:20:09 > 0:20:13I've absolutely no idea.
0:20:13 > 0:20:18We seem to swim quite well in England some of the time, so swimming.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Swimming?
0:20:20 > 0:20:23You're sinking. It's judo.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Which means it's been a long time coming,
0:20:26 > 0:20:30but Tony won't be on his Sweeney Todd in the final.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33David will be there. David, you're playing in the final round.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37Would you both please come back and join your teams.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40So, then, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44It's time for the final round, which as always is General Knowledge.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48Those of you who lost your head to heads won't be able to take part.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50So Mike, David and Ed from Vinyl Countdown,
0:20:50 > 0:20:54and Judith from the Eggheads, would you all please leave the studio now.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59So then, Tony and David, you're playing to win the Vinyl Countdown
0:20:59 > 0:21:01£7,000 for your chosen charity.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04Chris, Barry, Pat and Kevin, you're playing for something which money
0:21:04 > 0:21:08cannot buy, it is the Eggheads' reputation.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12The questions are all General Knowledge.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Of course, you are allowed to confer,
0:21:14 > 0:21:17which is why that victory by David was so important.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Tony's not there on his own.
0:21:19 > 0:21:20The question is,
0:21:20 > 0:21:22are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:21:22 > 0:21:26Tell me, Vinyl Countdown, do you want to go first or second?
0:21:26 > 0:21:30I think we'd like to go first.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35Here we go. First question. Good luck, Tony and David.
0:21:35 > 0:21:40The adjective lithic means relating to or composed of what?
0:21:44 > 0:21:46I've never heard that word before.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49- I've got to be honest, I haven't either.- What are the choices again?
0:21:49 > 0:21:50Stone, water or wood.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53It's got to be a complete guess, I think, hasn't it?
0:21:53 > 0:21:55- You going for stone? - I would go for stone.
0:21:55 > 0:21:59- That's a guess.- All right, I definitely don't think it's water.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01I don't think it's...
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Yeah, I think we'll go for stone?
0:22:03 > 0:22:05We'll go for stone, yeah.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08It's the right answer. Well done, correct, yes, stone.
0:22:08 > 0:22:09Get the Eggheads on it.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12I'm thinking monolithic, neolithic, palaeolithic...
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Lithos is the Greek for stone.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16Lithos, there we are. Greek for stone.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18We did know that. We were just getting you going there.
0:22:18 > 0:22:19We knew it all the way along.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22You speak fluent ancient Greek.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26Eggheads, your first question, what was the name of the pantomime artist
0:22:26 > 0:22:27born in 1778
0:22:27 > 0:22:32who invented the figure of the classic clown as we know it today?
0:22:35 > 0:22:37That was Grimaldi.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41It's the right answer, Eggheads, yes.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45Second question now for Tony and David.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47For what does the letter S stand
0:22:47 > 0:22:50in the name of the international organisation UNESCO?
0:22:56 > 0:22:59I don't think it's society.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03- Or special.- Or special, no.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05I think we're going to go for scientific.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11UNESCO. It's correct. Yes, well done, correct,
0:23:11 > 0:23:12you got two out of two.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16UNESCO stands for, then, United Nations...
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation?
0:23:18 > 0:23:22Yep. That's all of it there.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26And your second question, Eggheads, the first Bank of England bank notes
0:23:26 > 0:23:30to bear the face of the monarch featured a portrait of which queen?
0:23:38 > 0:23:40That's Elizabeth II.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43Elizabeth II, that late?
0:23:43 > 0:23:45It's the right answer, Eggheads.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47OK, there we are. 2-2.
0:23:47 > 0:23:51Could be one good answer away from winning this money.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Here you go.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Because of their difference in size, which married 20th century artists
0:23:56 > 0:23:59were known as the elephant and the dove?
0:24:09 > 0:24:12That's a tricky one, isn't it?
0:24:12 > 0:24:15This is a question we hoped we wouldn't get.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17I don't think it's Jackson Pollock.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21I don't think it's even...
0:24:21 > 0:24:23I think the elephant and the dove may be an English
0:24:23 > 0:24:26translation of something else. So how would you feel about that?
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Yeah. We think it's... shall we go for that one?
0:24:29 > 0:24:31- Diego and Frida.- Yep.
0:24:31 > 0:24:36Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo...
0:24:36 > 0:24:39It's the right answer.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Well done. You're three out of three.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Now, if the Eggheads don't get this, you've won the money.
0:24:43 > 0:24:48Your question, Eggheads, a constituency based in which town
0:24:48 > 0:24:51was dubbed Guinness on Sea by the media
0:24:51 > 0:24:55due to it being represented by MPs connected to the Guinness family
0:24:55 > 0:24:57for the majority of the 20th century?
0:24:57 > 0:25:03Was Paul Channon part of the Guinness family?
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Certainly Essex, round that way.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09Never heard anything like that in relation to Hastings.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11So, Southend sounds good to me.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14We believe that's Southend.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17- Southend.- Paul Channon represented Southend,
0:25:17 > 0:25:20and he was a member of the Guinness family.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Got to get this, Eggheads, and you have.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24It's correct. Into sudden death.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27No mean achievement in itself, but I know you want to go the whole
0:25:27 > 0:25:30way and win the money, so a sudden death question,
0:25:30 > 0:25:34first Sudden Death question to you, Tony and David.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36The Royal Marines are a part of which
0:25:36 > 0:25:38of the UK's three armed forces?
0:25:41 > 0:25:44It sounds like the Navy. I think it's the Navy.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46But it might be a trick question.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49- OK, going Navy?- Yes. - Confirm that, yep?
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Yes.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53It's correct. The Royal Navy.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55- Consternation.- I thought it was going to be a trick!
0:25:55 > 0:25:57No trick questions here.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59OK, you've got it in the bag.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Now the Eggheads need to get this.
0:26:02 > 0:26:06Eggheads, what is the only US state to end with the letter G?
0:26:11 > 0:26:13That should be Wyoming.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Yeah, it's the right answer, Eggheads.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Kind of thing those quizzers know.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22Wyoming. OK, you've got your answer another question at least.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24- Well done!- Here you go.
0:26:24 > 0:26:28Which film director responsible for directing Home Alone,
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Mrs Doubtfire and two of the Harry Potter films
0:26:31 > 0:26:34shares his full name with a famous explorer?
0:26:36 > 0:26:39I know this.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45- Home Alone.- Ron Howard?
0:26:45 > 0:26:47- Yes, yes.- You think it is?
0:26:47 > 0:26:50Yes, it is. Ron Howard.
0:26:50 > 0:26:56- Is that your answer? - Yeah.- Ron Howard...is incorrect.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00I don't think famous explorer. Do you know, Eggheads?
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Chris Columbus.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Christopher Columbus, obviously his full name.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07OK, Eggheads, it's not over yet.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11The Eggheads need to get this if they are to win.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13For what do the letters P and E stand
0:27:13 > 0:27:18in the basic financial measurement known as the PE ratio?
0:27:18 > 0:27:20For what do the letters P and E stand
0:27:20 > 0:27:24in the basic financial measurement known as the PE ratio?
0:27:24 > 0:27:27That's price, earnings.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30PE is price, earnings ratio?
0:27:30 > 0:27:33It's the right answer, Eggheads. You've won.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40You were going so well. That was really fabulous.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44Those head to heads could have gone either way.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47But we have to draw things to a close, so thank you all,
0:27:47 > 0:27:50thank you to Tony, thank you to The Kid there,
0:27:50 > 0:27:53Ed Stewpot, Diddy David and Mike "No Nickname" Reid.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56We'll have to get you one. Thank you very much indeed, guys,
0:27:56 > 0:27:58for being such good sports and good quizzers.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01But the Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them,
0:28:01 > 0:28:02and their winning streak continues.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £7,000
0:28:05 > 0:28:06for your chosen charity.
