0:00:04 > 0:00:09These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29That's the 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 > 0:00:35They are the Eggheads.
0:00:35 > 0:00:39And tackling our awesome quiz Titans today are the That's Lifers.
0:00:39 > 0:00:40Now, this quintet
0:00:40 > 0:00:43sees a reunion of some of the team who worked
0:00:43 > 0:00:46on that well-loved BBC programme That's Life.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Lead, as always, by the indomitable Esther Rantzen.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52As famous for its consumer rights campaigns as it was for
0:00:52 > 0:00:55its funny shaped vegetables, That's Life was, for many years,
0:00:55 > 0:00:58a staple of British television and, I suppose,
0:00:58 > 0:01:00in that particular respect it's a bit like Eggheads.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03So, I'll leave it up to you to decide which funny shaped vegetables
0:01:03 > 0:01:06our quizzing Goliaths resemble.
0:01:06 > 0:01:07Let's meet the team.
0:01:07 > 0:01:12I'm Esther Rantzen and for 21 years I produced and presented
0:01:12 > 0:01:15a programme called That's Life, with these.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Hello, I'm Robin Baxter, I directed That's Life
0:01:17 > 0:01:20and I have worked with Esther for about 20 years now.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Hello, I'm Gavin Campbell, I was a reporter and presenter
0:01:22 > 0:01:24on That's Life for 12 years.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27Hi, I'm Bill Buckley and I was one of the presenters
0:01:27 > 0:01:30of That's Life between 1982 and '85.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Hello, my name is Adrian Mills, I was a presenter
0:01:33 > 0:01:36on That's Life from 1985 to 1994,
0:01:36 > 0:01:40with a couple of years off for good behaviour in between.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42Welcome to That's Lifers. Honour, privilege,
0:01:42 > 0:01:44great to have you all here.
0:01:44 > 0:01:45Esther, great to see you.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48I mean, I say it quite a lot on this but it really was an institution,
0:01:48 > 0:01:50That's Life, wasn't it?
0:01:50 > 0:01:52Hard to believe after all these years it's gone.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56And some people thought we should have stayed institutionalised.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00It's lovely, it's great to be with the team again. It's really such fun.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02It's great to see some of the faces here.
0:02:02 > 0:02:03Listen, we are going to play the game
0:02:03 > 0:02:07and chat about some of those memories as we continue to quiz.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Because every day there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs
0:02:09 > 0:02:12for our challengers' chosen charity.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads
0:02:14 > 0:02:16that prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19So, That's Lifers, the Eggheads have won the last seven games,
0:02:19 > 0:02:21seen of seven celebrity teams,
0:02:21 > 0:02:26so far, and that means £8,000 says you can't take them.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28We'll play our first head-to-head challenge.
0:02:28 > 0:02:29I'll tell you it's Film and Television.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32You should all be itching to play this one.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36You choose a player and then choose an Egghead, Film and Television.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40- Adrian, Bill?- I think Adrian is probably going to be the best.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44- Adrian.- 0K, it looks like I've drawn the short straw, so early.
0:02:44 > 0:02:460K, going in to bat first.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Choose an Egghead, as you know, can be anyone you like at this stage.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51Opening round.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Judith.
0:02:53 > 0:02:560K, let's have Adrian and Judith into the Question Room.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Adrian, that's to make sure you can't confer with your teammates.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Off you go, please.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03You get the choice as the challenger, Adrian,
0:03:03 > 0:03:05do you want to go first or second?
0:03:05 > 0:03:07I'd like to go first, please.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13OK, Adrian, try this for size. Louis Spence shot to fame
0:03:13 > 0:03:16when he was seen on which television programme?
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Well, we all know Hell's Kitchen is the man that uses a certain word
0:03:23 > 0:03:26on many occasions, I seem to remember.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Biggest Loser, I can't even think what Biggest Loser is,
0:03:28 > 0:03:30I don't think I've ever seen it.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33But I do know, because it goes back to those acting days
0:03:33 > 0:03:36and having to learn a bit of dance, I'm pretty sure
0:03:36 > 0:03:38it's Pineapple Dance Studios.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41- Have you ever danced there?- No, and certainly not with Louis.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Certainly not with Louis. And he is there, yes,
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Louis Spence at the Pineapple Dance Studios. Well identified.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49One for you. And, Judith, your first question.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51What is the name of the car
0:03:51 > 0:03:56voiced by Owen Wilson in the animation Cars, and its sequel?
0:04:00 > 0:04:02I have absolutely no idea.
0:04:02 > 0:04:08The whole of that question doesn't mean a single thing to me.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Lightning McQueen.
0:04:12 > 0:04:17It's the right answer, Judith. How did you land it there?
0:04:17 > 0:04:18I don't know.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20CJ is going, "Yes." Bad luck, Adrian, it's all square.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24A good start from you and a lucky one from Judith.
0:04:24 > 0:04:25Second questions, each.
0:04:25 > 0:04:31Adrian, on film, who has fought with Mothra, Megalon and King Ghidorah?
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Predator, funnily enough, I think I watched on the TV the other evening.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40That was set in the jungle somewhere.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42I don't remember any of those characters appearing.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45I have a sneaky suspicion, I might be completely and utterly wrong,
0:04:45 > 0:04:48going back to my childhood, is it Flash Gordon?
0:04:48 > 0:04:50Flash Gordon, it's not, it's not.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53It is,
0:04:53 > 0:04:58- Eggheads?- Godzilla.- It's Godzilla, Godzilla's opponents.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Nothing there for Adrian. Judith's second question.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Which actor played Detective Jackson Brodie in the 2011 TV adaptation
0:05:04 > 0:05:07of the novel Case Histories?
0:05:10 > 0:05:12I think that was one I didn't want to watch
0:05:12 > 0:05:14because I was going to be frightened by,
0:05:14 > 0:05:17and didn't want violence and stuff.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Dominic West.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24- Dominic West for Detective Jackson Brodie, no.- No?
0:05:24 > 0:05:26No, no.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29- Any of the other Eggheads know this? - Jason Isaacs.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32It's Jason Isaacs in that role, Jackson Brodie.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34So, no damage done, Adrian.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37It's all square, everything to play for.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39That place in the final round, playing for the £8,000.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Third question. What is the name of the character
0:05:42 > 0:05:46played by Robert De Niro in the film, Goodfellas?
0:05:50 > 0:05:55I honestly haven't a clue. I can't even be selective.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58It is one of three, I've just got to plump for someone.
0:05:58 > 0:06:03I don't know, I really can't even eliminate. James Conway.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07- Just a guess?- It has to be, I have no idea, I'm afraid.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10- Oh, Adrian.- No.- It's the right answer.- Get out of it.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14It's the right answer, James Conway,
0:06:14 > 0:06:16played by Robert De Niro in Goodfellas, which means
0:06:16 > 0:06:18you need to get this, Judith.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Who wrote the television series A Very Peculiar Practice?
0:06:26 > 0:06:29Oh, I don't know that either.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Erm... Andrew Davies.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36I suppose it is only fair you've had a bit of a guess and got it.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Yes, that is correct, after Adrian's guess at James Conway.
0:06:39 > 0:06:44It's all square after three, so we ratchet up the pressure
0:06:44 > 0:06:46and remove the choices you've been looking at so far, Adrian,
0:06:46 > 0:06:50going into the sudden death phase of the round
0:06:50 > 0:06:52to sort out a winner which means, obviously,
0:06:52 > 0:06:55you've just got to conjure up an answer from your own head.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57This is your question. In 1974,
0:06:57 > 0:07:01Sophia Loren and Richard Burton starred in TV remake
0:07:01 > 0:07:04of which classic 1945 film?
0:07:06 > 0:07:07Brief Encounter.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11- Is the right answer! What?- Uh-oh.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Where did you get that from, Adrian?
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Do you know, I just thought, "1945, think of any film,"
0:07:15 > 0:07:18it's the only one I could think of.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Think of the classic. Well, that was a classic answer.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22I'd give you a place in the final round now
0:07:22 > 0:07:25if I didn't, under the rules, have to offer Judith the question.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27This to tie it up and take us on for more questions, Judith.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31In which 1980 film does Bob Hoskins
0:07:31 > 0:07:35play the doomed gangster Harold Shand?
0:07:35 > 0:07:38I think it's a one word answer.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41I can't, I just can't think.
0:07:41 > 0:07:42Mona Lisa.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44It's not the right answer.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46I'm going to give Adrian a chance to exhibit more knowledge.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49- Doesn't matter, you're through. - Is it Long Good Friday?
0:07:49 > 0:07:51It is The Long Good Friday, what a quizzer.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55The Long Good Friday, but Mona Lisa very close there, Judith,
0:07:55 > 0:07:57but not good enough to stop Adrian.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Really rolling along there, getting all his questions
0:08:00 > 0:08:01and your questions right, in the end.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04You're in the final round, Adrian, a real asset to the team
0:08:04 > 0:08:06in the fight for the money.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Would you both please come back and join your teams.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11A storming start for the That's Lifers,
0:08:11 > 0:08:14swept one of the Eggheads away.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17As it stands, one brain missing from the Eggheads side,
0:08:17 > 0:08:19all of That's Lifers there.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23Lots of quizzing to go though and our second head-to-head today is Politics.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Who'd like to play this? Politics, it can't be Adrian.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31- Gavin, are you happy with politics? - I'll have a go.- Good luck, Gavin.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- Go on then.- All right.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36It's going to be you, Gavin, remember it can't be Judith
0:08:36 > 0:08:39but any of the two Eggheads either side of her.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40- Pat.- Pat?- Yeah.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43Let's have you both into the Question Room, please.
0:08:45 > 0:08:490K, Gavin, you get to choose, do you want to go first or second?
0:08:49 > 0:08:51I'll get it over with, I'll go first, please, Dermot?
0:08:54 > 0:08:560K, first question, Gavin, and best of luck with it.
0:08:56 > 0:09:01Which former MP, who lost his seat in 1997,
0:09:01 > 0:09:05spent several years as a presenter of the radio football phone-in 606?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Well, it wasn't Michael Portillo
0:09:11 > 0:09:16because he spends a lot of time in the evening talking about politics.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17So, it wasn't him.
0:09:17 > 0:09:23Sebastian Coe, don't think so, he's been too busy doing other things.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25I think it was David Mellor.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27It's David Mellor, it's the right answer, well done.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31You're off the mark successfully.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35Pat, Up Yours Delors was a famous headline from 1990
0:09:35 > 0:09:36in which newspaper?
0:09:39 > 0:09:42I can imagine all these three publications
0:09:42 > 0:09:45taking a dislike to old Jacques
0:09:45 > 0:09:47but I think The Sun has the track record
0:09:47 > 0:09:50of the punchy, very, very dogmatic headline.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53So, I am going to gamble on The Sun.
0:09:53 > 0:09:54The Sun, for Up Yours Delors.
0:09:54 > 0:09:59Yes, it's up there with Gotcha and Freddie Starr's hamster eating.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01It is the right answer, yes. The Sun.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03OK, back to you, Gavin, second question.
0:10:03 > 0:10:08Which official usually administers the oath of office
0:10:08 > 0:10:09at the US president's inauguration, is it?
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Gosh, golly, er.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19I don't think it's the Vice President.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23I'm going to go with the Attorney General.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25It's not.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27It is, I suppose the other one you were thinking of,
0:10:27 > 0:10:32the Chief Justice. It is the Chief Justice of the United States.
0:10:34 > 0:10:40And, Pat, a chance for the lead, then. In 1997 Theresa May became MP for which constituency?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45I'm not sure and I don't think I've got any sort of strategy
0:10:45 > 0:10:48for manufacturing an answer either.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54I think Maidenhead rings a distant bell. So, I will go for Maidenhead.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56It is the right answer, Maidenhead is correct, Pat.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00You've got it. So, Gavin, under the cosh here, you need to get this.
0:11:00 > 0:11:05UNIFIL was established by the United Nations
0:11:05 > 0:11:09as a peacekeeping operation in which part of the world?
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Again, this is a pure guess.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18I'm going to guess Lebanon.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21Good guess, I bet it was more than a guess.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24It's the right answer, well done, Gavin. Kept your hopes alive.
0:11:24 > 0:11:29Sure there was a scrap of knowledge somewhere whispering in your ear.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31So, you've got to hope Pat doesn't get this.
0:11:31 > 0:11:36Pat, before Tony Blair, who was the last British Prime Minister
0:11:36 > 0:11:38to become a father while in office?
0:11:42 > 0:11:45I have a suspicion it's John Russell.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Robert Peel is the Corn Laws, I don't think he's famous for
0:11:47 > 0:11:52fathering a child while Prime Minister. I think it's John Russell.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55John Russell, it is the right answer, Pat.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57You are through to the final round.
0:11:57 > 0:11:58Bad luck, Gavin,
0:11:58 > 0:12:01came back there, but Pat's like a juggernaut
0:12:01 > 0:12:03when it comes to these quizzes.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Great white shark smelling blood, you couldn't stop him
0:12:05 > 0:12:08once you got one question wrong.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Unfortunately, it means you will not be helping out
0:12:10 > 0:12:13the other That's Lifers in the final round, playing for the money.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16So, would you both please come back and join your teams.
0:12:16 > 0:12:22That's evened it up, both teams have lost one brain from the final round.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25We have reached the halfway point in terms of the head-to-heads,
0:12:25 > 0:12:27four head-to-heads, of course, in total.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30So, our third one is Sport.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Who'd like to play this?
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Who've we got to? We've got Robin, Bill or Esther.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37I think we all nominate, Robin.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39Please, yes.
0:12:39 > 0:12:430K, Robin, and pick your Egghead.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46I want to take on CJ and hope there aren't any questions on chess.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50Yes. I know you contend that it is a sport.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Oh, I don't, no. Chess is a game.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Well, this is a game too.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58Let's have, Robin, and, CJ, into the Question Room, please.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Robin, let's play the round.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03It's Sport, do you want to go first or second?
0:13:03 > 0:13:05I think I should go first.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Go first and finish first, that's what we want to see.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13First question then, Robin.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17Which cricketer hosted the 1970s TV show The Indoor League and became
0:13:17 > 0:13:20well known for signing off with the phrase, "Ahl si'thee". Is it?
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Well, I don't think it was Jim Laker.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29I've never seen the famous spinner host a TV show.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Mike Brearley was far too intellectual
0:13:32 > 0:13:34to use a term like that.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37So, I'm going to go for the greatest Yorkshireman, Fred Trueman.
0:13:37 > 0:13:41Fiery Fred, for it is he. It is the right answer, of course.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43First question for you, CJ.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Stuart Storey and Paul Dickenson
0:13:46 > 0:13:49are two of the BBC's main commentators on which sport?
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- Athletics.- Ooh, you knew that one.- I knew that one.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58Because you know it's not tennis?
0:13:58 > 0:14:02Maybe watched a bit of athletics, too. Your next question, Robin.
0:14:02 > 0:14:07Who was Lewis Hamilton's teammate in his first season in Formula One?
0:14:11 > 0:14:14This is difficult.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18I know my son, Bertie, will be screaming the answer at the TV set.
0:14:18 > 0:14:24He'll know this. I don't think it was Nick or Giancarlo.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27I'm going to go for Alonso.
0:14:27 > 0:14:28Fernando Alonso, right to do so.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30You have two points.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32CJ, oh no.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Which tennis player was the losing finalist
0:14:35 > 0:14:40in the men's singles at the French Open in 2009 and 2010?
0:14:43 > 0:14:48In 2009 he lost to Federer, in 2010 he lost to Nadal
0:14:48 > 0:14:51and it's Robin Soderling.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54Yes, fell very nicely for you, tennis fan there, CJ.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57One of the few sports he does follow and he got that question.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00OK, but it's all square, everything to play for.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03Robin, Robert Maxwell proposed a merger between Oxford United
0:15:03 > 0:15:05and which other football club,
0:15:05 > 0:15:07under the name of the Thames Valley Royals, is it?
0:15:11 > 0:15:15Well, I don't think it was Wycombe Wanderers.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18So, it leaves Swindon or Reading.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20As it had the Royals in the title
0:15:20 > 0:15:23I am going to go for Reading for a bit of alliteration. Reading.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26It's the right answer. Well done, you have three.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30CJ. Look at CJ's face. He's thinking,
0:15:30 > 0:15:33"I've done really well here to get two and one of them was tennis."
0:15:35 > 0:15:39CJ, the Ernest-Wallon Stadium is in which French city?
0:15:42 > 0:15:44Absolutely no idea.
0:15:44 > 0:15:49This is nothing more than an absolute blind guess, Perpignan.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51It's not, other Eggheads, do you know, just out of interest,
0:15:51 > 0:15:55and what is the stadium for, rugby or something like that?
0:15:55 > 0:15:57- Toulouse.- Montpelier?- Toulouse.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00- Rugby.- Judith, now you are making it up.- No, I'm not.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Because south-west France.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06- Yes, I know, but do you genuinely know that?- No, of course, I don't.
0:16:06 > 0:16:10Toulouse, though, is the answer we were looking for.
0:16:10 > 0:16:11That's of no import,
0:16:11 > 0:16:14what is important is that Robin is through to the final round.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Would you both please come back and join your teams.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21Well, the That's Lifers have shaded these exchanges so far.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23The Eggheads have now lost two brains from the final round.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26The That's Lifers only one down.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28What will be the balance in the final round?
0:16:28 > 0:16:31This last head-to-head will decide it, it's Food & Drink.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Esther or Bill? Food & Drink.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Thank goodness because Bill is a food critic and a foodie
0:16:39 > 0:16:42- and a gourmet.- And has had a drink.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46I need to drink, I have so much to lose now.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49- There's nothing he doesn't know. - When you said thank goodness
0:16:49 > 0:16:51I thought it was because you were going to say, "I love Food & Drink."
0:16:51 > 0:16:55- I love listening to Bill talking about Food & Drink.- Oh, I see, OK.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Bill, it seems like it's going to be you
0:16:57 > 0:16:59and who would you like to play from the Eggheads.
0:16:59 > 0:17:04We've got Kevin or Barry waiting for you.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08I would like to play Kevin, please.
0:17:08 > 0:17:13I've just got a feeling that could be the right way to go, Dermot.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Bill, and, Kevin, I will steer into the Question Room, please.
0:17:16 > 0:17:21Bill, Esther was right wasn't she about the interest in food,
0:17:21 > 0:17:23first of all?
0:17:23 > 0:17:25You're in The Guild Of Food Writers, aren't you?
0:17:25 > 0:17:28Yes, this is going to be so hideously embarrassing
0:17:28 > 0:17:32if I don't do well because Gavin doesn't have to know about politics,
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Robin doesn't have to know about sport but I am, actually,
0:17:35 > 0:17:39supposed to know a bit about food and yes, I am a member of the Guild.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42I am a judge at the World Cheese Awards, believe it or not.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45The Eggheads always joke, we have a lot of questions, they think,
0:17:45 > 0:17:47about cheese.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Well, I am crossing my fingers for that one then.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52I review restaurants and I write about food quite a bit these days.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55So, I'm really on the line here.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58Well, you are playing a man who you have identified isn't, let's say,
0:17:58 > 0:18:02that interested in the subject. He gets to play it fairly often.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Let's see if you can knock him out.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Would you like to go first or second?
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Everyone else has gone first, haven't they?
0:18:08 > 0:18:11So, I think I will also go first.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17I was going to say everyone else has gone first and two got through.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18So, quite a success rate.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Let's see if you can get into the final round as well, Bill.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Best of luck. First question.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Which term is used to describe a drink which is served with ice?
0:18:31 > 0:18:34Well, I hope that no drink would be on the turn
0:18:34 > 0:18:36although I did once add a cream liqueur
0:18:36 > 0:18:41to some other non-creamy spirit and it did indeed go on the turn.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44I think we can rule that one out pretty safely.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47You want a drink while you're watching other people on the box
0:18:47 > 0:18:49instead of the actual drink being on the box.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51It's got to be on the rocks, hasn't it?
0:18:51 > 0:18:53It is, yes, on the rocks, of course. Right answer.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Kevin, what name is given
0:18:55 > 0:18:58to the flower, milk and egg mixture
0:18:58 > 0:19:01which forms the basis of pancakes and Yorkshire puddings?
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Well, the one that I've heard of would be a roux.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10OK.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13Oh, I see I've fallen into the trap there, haven't I?
0:19:13 > 0:19:16A mixture of flour and water, yeah, I automatically think of roux.
0:19:16 > 0:19:20But in this case Yorkshire pud's batter. Sorry.
0:19:20 > 0:19:25- It's too late.- I know, I know.- Look at Bill. It's too late, as you know.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Played so many hundreds of these rounds, it lit up.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31You cannot withdraw it at that point.
0:19:31 > 0:19:32Now you'd like to tell us it's...
0:19:32 > 0:19:35It's batter, yes, should have thought about it.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39The millions around their television screens howling at it.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Kevin Ashman caught out again on Food and Drink.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44But not out yet.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Great start, Bill, but chickens hatched
0:19:47 > 0:19:50and eggs and all that kind of stuff.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53- How very culinary.- Exactly.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56- Chance for a big lead here.- OK.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58What was the name of the campaign launched in 1939,
0:19:58 > 0:20:02encouraging people to grow their own vegetables?
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Luckily, I went to a wonderful exhibition
0:20:08 > 0:20:13at the Imperial War Museum, not long ago,
0:20:13 > 0:20:15with the incredible Marguerite Patten,
0:20:15 > 0:20:18who was the figurehead behind all this.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20I'm pretty sure it was Dig For victory.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24Dig For Victory, is the right answer, of course, well done, Bill.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27I went to the exhibition and they were actually, did you have some of
0:20:27 > 0:20:29those biscuits made out of potatoes?
0:20:29 > 0:20:30- Yes.- They were quite tasty, weren't they?
0:20:30 > 0:20:32I've thought most of the foods were really nice
0:20:32 > 0:20:36and some great advertising material, as well, from those days.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40To be a good advertising creator is not a modern craft,
0:20:40 > 0:20:43they could do it back then too.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46A lot of ideas we should've kept going. Dig For Victory.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49Right answer. Well, you're heading towards victory.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51You might have clinched it if Kevin gets this wrong
0:20:51 > 0:20:55and on current form, a great possibility.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Queen Victoria's favourite tipple is said to have been
0:20:58 > 0:21:01a single malt whisky mixed with which other drink?
0:21:04 > 0:21:05Could be any of them. Madeira.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09Madeira, oh deara, you're out.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11- It's claret.- Yes.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15- First thought, there you go. - Crikey.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17Maybe you need one of them after that, Kevin.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19That was lamentable.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22Terrible performance.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24- The first one was.- I think you accept that.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26- It was.- The first one was, not the second.
0:21:26 > 0:21:30- In fairness, no, the second one had to be a guess.- Tough.
0:21:30 > 0:21:34- It's great news for That's Lifers. - Great news for Bill, personally.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36Honour maintained, increased.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38You are through to the final round.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41Would you both please come back and join your teams.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43So, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46It is time now for the final round which, as always,
0:21:46 > 0:21:47is General Knowledge.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50I'm afraid those of you who've lost your head-to-heads
0:21:50 > 0:21:52won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54So, just Gavin from the That's Lifers,
0:21:54 > 0:21:56and Judith, Kevin and CJ from the Eggheads,
0:21:56 > 0:21:58would you all leave the studio, please?
0:22:00 > 0:22:02So, then Esther, Robin, Bill, and, Adrian,
0:22:02 > 0:22:06you are playing to win the That's lifers £8,000.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Barry, and, Pat, you're playing for something
0:22:08 > 0:22:11which money cannot buy, it is your very reputation.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16This time the questions are General Knowledge and the big difference is
0:22:16 > 0:22:17you are allowed to confer.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19So Esther, Robin, Bill and Adrian, the question is
0:22:19 > 0:22:22are your four brains better than the Eggheads two?
0:22:22 > 0:22:26And, That's Lifers, your choice, do you want to go first or second?
0:22:26 > 0:22:28We want to go first, don't we?
0:22:28 > 0:22:32We've done well so far, we want to go first, please.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Let's see how you do. First question.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39The Advertising Standards Authority works
0:22:39 > 0:22:43to ensure the adverts are legal, decent, honest and what else?
0:22:47 > 0:22:49The Advertising Standards Authority works to
0:22:49 > 0:22:52ensure that adverts are legal, decent, honest and what else?
0:22:52 > 0:22:54We think truthful.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58It's well up your street, isn't it? That's Lifers.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00It's the right answer, yes.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06Eggheads, in a comedy sketch of the 1950s, featuring Peter Sellers,
0:23:06 > 0:23:10which area of London was described as the gateway to the south?
0:23:13 > 0:23:17I worked there for three or four years and it's Balham.
0:23:17 > 0:23:18The gateway to the south.
0:23:18 > 0:23:23I am reliably informed it's Balham, the gateway to the south.
0:23:23 > 0:23:28Did they like that in Balham, Pat? Is that how you remember it?
0:23:28 > 0:23:31People weren't talking about it very much, no.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35Balham is the right answer. Peter Sellers, gateway to the south.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38All square after one each.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Second questions then. This to the That's Lifers.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43In the years running up to
0:23:43 > 0:23:46England's adoption of the Gregorian calendar,
0:23:46 > 0:23:48New Year's Day fell in which month?
0:23:51 > 0:23:55It was the Julian calendar, was it not? But that isn't the question.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00We know it's around there, but which of those three?
0:24:00 > 0:24:02How many days did they take off?
0:24:02 > 0:24:05- Oh, yes, how many days did they take off?- They lost.
0:24:07 > 0:24:13- I think it's earlier, rather than later.- I think we can leave May.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15- Do we feel like going for March? - I do, instinctively,
0:24:15 > 0:24:18- but I don't know why.- Go for it.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20- We're going for March.- March.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24- On the basis of what, that it is closer to January?- Yes.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27- It's the right answer.- ALL: Yes. - Well, they have the lead.
0:24:27 > 0:24:31Eggheads, in 2011, Prince William was given which Scottish title?
0:24:37 > 0:24:41Strathearn rings some sort of distant bell.
0:24:41 > 0:24:46He became Cambridge, didn't he? Duke of Cambridge.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47That was my first guess as well.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49I think Prince Charles is Baron Moncrieff.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51That's one of his titles. I've read that recently.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53All right, we are not 100% on this
0:24:53 > 0:24:56but we think it's the Earl of Strathearn.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59The Earl of Strathearn, along with a string of titles
0:24:59 > 0:25:03awarded to Prince William on his marriage in 2011.
0:25:03 > 0:25:09It is the Earl of Strathearn. It's correct, Eggheads. All square.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12Now we reach the questions that could lead to the money.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15If you get this you could win, That's Lifers.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18In 2011, David Danton was named
0:25:18 > 0:25:22the first fashion artist-in-residence of which hotel?
0:25:25 > 0:25:300K, well the Savoy had a massive refurbishment.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32He would have got concrete dust in his hair
0:25:32 > 0:25:34and it would've been a problem.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37But they're relaunching.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41They might have wanted to get lots of publicity and lots of extra...
0:25:41 > 0:25:44OK, let's put the Savoy there.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48- The Langham, a lovely hotel... - But it's not in that league.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52The amount of money spent on the refurbishment of the Savoy
0:25:52 > 0:25:57the publicity the Savoy has generated, my instinct would be,
0:25:57 > 0:25:59because it has been in the news,
0:25:59 > 0:26:01they would have an artist-in-residence.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Not that they don't need one.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Can we have a little vote, How many for Claridges?
0:26:07 > 0:26:11Me. How many for Savoy?
0:26:11 > 0:26:16- We'll go for the Savoy.- The Savoy.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19For the David Danton fashion artist-in-residence.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21- Claridges.- Oh.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25Never listen to a man, never, never, never.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26Especially about fashion.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29How could I, for one...
0:26:29 > 0:26:30How did you let them, Esther?
0:26:30 > 0:26:33For one second in my mind
0:26:33 > 0:26:35I turned into a little woman in front of your very eyes.
0:26:35 > 0:26:39- Why did you let them vote? - Oh, how could I do that?
0:26:39 > 0:26:43Listen, it's not over because the Eggheads, to win in Eggheads
0:26:43 > 0:26:47you have to beat the other team.
0:26:47 > 0:26:50It's all square, but they do face another question.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52So, Eggheads, for the game,
0:26:52 > 0:26:55domestic chickens are descended from which wild birds?
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Domestic chickens are descended from which wild birds?
0:27:01 > 0:27:03I'm absolutely certain on this, I think it's jungle fowl.
0:27:03 > 0:27:07The guineafowl exists as the guineafowl today,
0:27:07 > 0:27:09the peafowl is the peacock.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12I think it's jungle fowl..
0:27:12 > 0:27:14I live in a part of Leeds called Roundhay.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17There is a wonderful natural park there
0:27:17 > 0:27:20full of all sorts of strange and interesting creatures.
0:27:20 > 0:27:23One of the exhibits is full of jungle fowl
0:27:23 > 0:27:26which says is where the domestic chicken came from.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29So, the answer is absolutely jungle fowl.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Oh, goodness me.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34It is the right answer, Eggheads, you've won.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42What an extraordinary game.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45What an extraordinary game.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48I think we won't be discussing jungle fowl on the way home,
0:27:48 > 0:27:50I think we'll be back to the last question you faced there.
0:27:50 > 0:27:54Claridges or the Savoy. Listen, bad luck.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57What great quizzers you turned out to be.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00Look at the balance in the final round.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02You only lost one head-to-head and that was pretty narrow
0:28:02 > 0:28:05with Gavin just being edged out there by Pat.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08- Thank you so much the playing. - He probably knew Claridges as well.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11He probably did, probably got a suite there.
