0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:12 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is...
0:00:19 > 0:00:20can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads.
0:00:27 > 0:00:30That's the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:30 > 0:00:33pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain -
0:00:33 > 0:00:34they are the Eggheads.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37And taking on the might of the Eggheads today
0:00:37 > 0:00:39are 24 Carat Women.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Now, what a pleasure it is
0:00:41 > 0:00:45to host this dream team of musical, stage and screen actors.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49I'd even go so far as to describe them as national treasures.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Which is quite funny, really,
0:00:51 > 0:00:52as I was only thinking the other day
0:00:52 > 0:00:56that we have some national treasures on the Eggheads team as well.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Plus a couple of well-preserved mummies
0:00:58 > 0:00:59and some old dinosaurs.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Now, before I get the evil eye, let's meet the team.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Hello. I'm Diane Keen.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07You may have seen me in Doctors
0:01:07 > 0:01:09or, a few years ago, The Cuckoo Waltz, which was a comedy,
0:01:09 > 0:01:11and I will try not to make a joke out of this.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Hello. My name is Shirley Anne Field.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15I've just toured the country
0:01:15 > 0:01:19in a wonderful play with my friend here, Anita, in The Cemetery Club,
0:01:19 > 0:01:21being paid for being outrageous.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Now I'm here and hopefully,
0:01:23 > 0:01:27I'm going to show another side to me - intelligence. We hope!
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Hi. I'm Anita Harris...I think!
0:01:30 > 0:01:34I've spent many happy hours with the Carry On team
0:01:34 > 0:01:36and you might remember a song
0:01:36 > 0:01:39# I could spend my life just loving you... #
0:01:39 > 0:01:42I hope we'll all be singing together later.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Hi. I'm Patti Boulaye.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46You may remember me 100 years ago from New Faces
0:01:46 > 0:01:51and the UK and international tour of Carmen Jones. Wish me luck!
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Hi. I'm Anna Karen. I specialise in playing stupid women.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57And I'm here tonight to prove
0:01:57 > 0:01:59that I was never just acting.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Welcome to you, 24 Carat Women. I was just thinking,
0:02:01 > 0:02:04you've all had such varied and wonderful careers -
0:02:04 > 0:02:07you're almost ideally balanced to play the Eggheads today.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10You've got knowledge from all over the place.
0:02:10 > 0:02:11No pressure, then(!)
0:02:11 > 0:02:13No pressure at all!
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Have you ever done any form of quizzing?
0:02:15 > 0:02:17ALL: No.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Not even a crossword, me!
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Well, you never know when you'll get paid for your next job,
0:02:21 > 0:02:23which is always a quiz.
0:02:23 > 0:02:27OK, well, let's put you through your first formal quiz.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29I hope you can win the money today,
0:02:29 > 0:02:31because every day there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs
0:02:31 > 0:02:33for our challengers' chosen charity.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:02:35 > 0:02:37the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:37 > 0:02:38So, 24 Carat Women,
0:02:38 > 0:02:42the challengers won the last show, proving it can be done.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46So that means £1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads today.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49And our first one in an attempt to knock an Egghead out - Science.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51Oh!
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Who'd like to play?
0:02:53 > 0:02:55I haven't got a clue. Not a clue!
0:02:55 > 0:02:57ALL LAUGH
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Who's it going to be? Somebody put their hand up.
0:03:00 > 0:03:01Oh...OK!
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Thank you, Patti!
0:03:03 > 0:03:08- Oh, you brave soul!- And you choose an Egghead now to play.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- Oh, boy!- Anyone you like.
0:03:10 > 0:03:11I'll go for Barry.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Patti and Barry, into the Question Room
0:03:14 > 0:03:16to make sure you can't confer, please.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22Patti, is it true? I heard you went for a day out in central London,
0:03:22 > 0:03:26thought you were queuing up for a major tourist attraction
0:03:26 > 0:03:29and ended up in a musical! Is that true?
0:03:29 > 0:03:30Oh, yes!
0:03:30 > 0:03:33I thought I was queuing up for Madame Tussauds.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35I was just here on holidays.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37And it ended up being an audition for Hair.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39So, what - you just joined the queue?
0:03:39 > 0:03:42Yeah, I joined the queue and I...
0:03:42 > 0:03:44When I knew it was an audition -
0:03:44 > 0:03:46because the queue was for about two hours -
0:03:46 > 0:03:49I thought, I've never been inside a theatre,
0:03:49 > 0:03:52so I'll go in and see a theatre for the first time in my life.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55And, yeah, I ended up in showbusiness!
0:03:55 > 0:03:58- DERMOT LAUGHS - What a way to do it!
0:03:58 > 0:03:59For my sins!
0:03:59 > 0:04:02OK, well, now you've ended up on Eggheads,
0:04:02 > 0:04:05doing Science! How random is your life?!
0:04:05 > 0:04:09Would you like to go first or second?
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Wouldn't make any difference! I'll go first.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Here's your first question on Science.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20People with which blood group are known as universal donors,
0:04:20 > 0:04:23because they can donate to people with any blood group?
0:04:27 > 0:04:30I know it's not B.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Ooh la la!
0:04:33 > 0:04:34OK. I think...
0:04:36 > 0:04:38I don't think it's AB.
0:04:38 > 0:04:39Um...
0:04:39 > 0:04:43I think I'll go for O blood.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45OK. O.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48You said "Ooh la la!" as well - that's got a lot of Os in it.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50- It's the right answer.- Oh!
0:04:50 > 0:04:52- Well done.- My goodness!
0:04:52 > 0:04:56See - you know more about it than you think! All right.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Well, that's a very solid start, of course.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Barry, which piece of scientific equipment
0:05:01 > 0:05:05is a tube used to convey liquid from one level to a lower level?
0:05:08 > 0:05:09I must tell you, Dermot,
0:05:09 > 0:05:12the rumours of me siphoning petrol out of cars are all false.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14But the answer is siphon.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16It is the right answer, yes. Siphoning.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19OK, well, that was a great start, Patti.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Hope you can get this.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25Colobus monkeys are native to which continent?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30I know... I don't think it's Europe.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Um...
0:05:32 > 0:05:37I know it's not Africa, because we have mangabey monkeys.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42I'm going to go for South America.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47It's not South America. It is actually Africa.
0:05:47 > 0:05:48Oh, you're kidding!
0:05:48 > 0:05:50One of the monkeys there.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52So they killed off the mangabey monkeys, did they?
0:05:52 > 0:05:54Maybe!
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Let's see how Barry does with his second one.
0:05:56 > 0:05:57Barry, in surgery,
0:05:57 > 0:06:01what name is given to the absence of disease-causing organisms?
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Well, the prefix "a" generally means without.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Anosmia I think is without smell.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13I'm not quite sure what autograft is, but I think
0:06:13 > 0:06:17the absence of disease-causing organisms is asepsis.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19It is. So that gives you a lead.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Patti, let's get you back on track
0:06:22 > 0:06:23with this, I hope.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Who was awarded a Nobel Prize for Chemistry
0:06:26 > 0:06:29for his investigations into the disintegration of the elements
0:06:29 > 0:06:33and the chemistry of radioactive substances?
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Linus Pauling...
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Oh! OK.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44This is purely a guess. Forgive me, ladies.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47I'm going to go for Ernest Rutherford.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50OK. Ernest Rutherford. Pure guess.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53- It's the right answer! - PATTI SQUEALS
0:06:53 > 0:06:54Yes, yes, yes!
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Woo!
0:06:56 > 0:06:57YES!
0:06:57 > 0:06:59PATTI LAUGHS
0:06:59 > 0:07:00I don't believe this!
0:07:00 > 0:07:03- Is my teacher watching?- Well, we do!
0:07:03 > 0:07:04You're doing fantastically.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08There is that gap in your record
0:07:08 > 0:07:10in that middle one, so it's giving Barry a chance here
0:07:10 > 0:07:12to win the round.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16How is Saccharomyces cerevisiae better known?
0:07:19 > 0:07:21It's not noble rot.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25It sounds very yeasty to me,
0:07:25 > 0:07:29so I hope I'll rise to the right answer and go for baker's yeast.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30OK, baker's yeast.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33You have - blast you! - got the right answer.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Yes, baker's yeast.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- We were turning Patti into a scientist there!- I know!
0:07:38 > 0:07:41She joined this queue outside the studio...
0:07:41 > 0:07:43She's ended up on this quiz.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45And found herself against the Eggheads!
0:07:45 > 0:07:47And pretty near won it.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Patti, bad luck, but come back to the studio and keep entertaining us.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53You won't be in the final round, though.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58As it stands, 24 Carat Women have lost one brain from the final round.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01The Eggheads are all there, but we've got a lot more rounds to play.
0:08:01 > 0:08:02This next one is Film & Television.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04This should be more to your liking.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Who wants to play Film & TV?
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Anybody want this?
0:08:08 > 0:08:10Shall I fall on my sword?
0:08:10 > 0:08:11I can do it.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14ALL TALK AT ONCE
0:08:14 > 0:08:16- You go first.- Go on, then, yeah.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19OK, right, we'll have you, Diane. And choose your Egghead.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23Just remember you can't play any of them twice, so Barry's ineligible.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25I'll have Pat.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28OK. Diane and Pat, off to the Question Room, please.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Diane, you mentioned Doctors. I was a great fan.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34I used to do breakfast television,
0:08:34 > 0:08:37so the afternoons, I would settle down
0:08:37 > 0:08:39and watch you in Doctors.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42But tell me about The Cuckoo Waltz as well.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Great fond memories of that.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47And huge audiences, that we wouldn't see the likes of in these days.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50Yeah, I think 12, 15 million.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Yeah, it was just such fun to do.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56It was a crazy, off-the-wall show,
0:08:56 > 0:09:00with mad characters. It was lovely. Geoff Lancashire wrote it.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Sarah Lancashire's dad before he died.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06So, yeah, I knew Sarah when she was a tiny little girl.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08All right.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10Would you like to go first or second?
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Oh, I'd like to go first, get it over with.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17First question on Film & TV.
0:09:17 > 0:09:22On Stranger Tides is the subtitle of a 2011 film in which series?
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Well, I know it's not Lethal Weapon.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32And I know it wasn't Shrek,
0:09:32 > 0:09:33because I just watched all of those.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38It was Pirates Of The Caribbean.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Yes, absolutely, by a process of elimination.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43I'm sure you would have known it anyway. It's the right answer.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47And Pat, then.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51Who received a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination
0:09:51 > 0:09:54for his role in the original 1977 Star Wars film?
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Well, I think Dave Prowse was inside...
0:10:01 > 0:10:03..Chewbacca. I could be wrong.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Mark Hamill played...
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Luke Skywalker.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10And Alec Guinness was Obi-Wan Kenobi.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13I think it was Alec Guinness.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15I think he remained slightly bemused to the end of his days
0:10:15 > 0:10:19that a role which didn't feature high in his own ratings
0:10:19 > 0:10:21almost defined him.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23- Alec Guinness.- Alec Guinness...
0:10:23 > 0:10:26is the right answer.
0:10:26 > 0:10:27But I'm thinking of deducting a point
0:10:27 > 0:10:29because of that Dave Prowse thing you said.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33- He wasn't Chewbacca? - He wasn't inside Chewbacca.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34- Darth Vader?- Darth Vader.- Oh, dear.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37That's a negative. New rule.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39LAUGHTER
0:10:39 > 0:10:42Unfortunately, I have to give you the point there.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44It stays all square.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46And Diane, second question.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49The poster for which 1994 film
0:10:49 > 0:10:52features Tom Hanks sitting on a bench?
0:10:55 > 0:10:59- AMERICAN ACCENT:- "My momma says life is like a box of chocolates.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01"You never know what you're going to get."
0:11:01 > 0:11:02It was Forrest Gump.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04HE LAUGHS
0:11:04 > 0:11:07That's a brilliant accent! Brilliant answer too.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09I can confirm that's the right answer.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13OK, Pat, I want you to give your answer in Deep Southern drawl,
0:11:13 > 0:11:16whatever the question is, to match Diane.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19I'm enjoying imposing these new rules on Pat.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22And if it doesn't pass muster, we'll deduct another point.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24You'll end up in serious negative territory.
0:11:24 > 0:11:28Here's your question. Which historical character
0:11:28 > 0:11:32was played on film by Stewart Granger in 1954
0:11:32 > 0:11:36and on television by James Purefoy in 2006?
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Of the three, I prefer Charles II.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47I'm just trying to recall the films and the TV programmes.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Robert the Bruce...hmm.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53I don't think it's Beau Brummell.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58But Robert the Bruce could certainly have attracted a couple of films.
0:12:00 > 0:12:01Could be either.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04I'll go for Charles II, but it could be either.
0:12:04 > 0:12:05OK. Well, um...
0:12:05 > 0:12:07It's Beau Brummell, Pat.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11- I wasn't anywhere near him! - No, you were never going to get it
0:12:11 > 0:12:14once you'd ruled that out. It's Beau Brummell, yeah.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15Well!
0:12:15 > 0:12:17This is great news.
0:12:17 > 0:12:22It means, Diane, you are on the cusp of a place in the final round.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25You might get in there anyway with what you've scored already,
0:12:25 > 0:12:28but that would depend on Pat getting his next one wrong.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31This is your direct passport. If you get this right, you're there.
0:12:31 > 0:12:36What type of creature was the Blue Peter pet, Joey?
0:12:39 > 0:12:41That's a tricky one.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45I didn't watch a lot of Blue Peter.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Um...
0:12:47 > 0:12:49It sounds like it could be a parrot.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52But maybe that's a bit obvious.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Tortoise...
0:12:55 > 0:12:57I'm just going to stab in the dark here
0:12:57 > 0:12:59and I'm going to say it was...
0:13:01 > 0:13:03..a tortoise.
0:13:03 > 0:13:04It WAS a parrot!
0:13:04 > 0:13:05No!
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Started with Pirates Of The Caribbean.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Thought we'd end it there with a parrot!
0:13:12 > 0:13:14This to draw level, Pat.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17The 1957 Merrie Melodies cartoon
0:13:17 > 0:13:21What's Opera, Doc? sees Elmer Fudd chasing Bugs Bunny
0:13:21 > 0:13:24through a parody of which composer's works?
0:13:27 > 0:13:28A parody of which composer's works...
0:13:28 > 0:13:33That suggests... That leads me to ignore Mozart,
0:13:33 > 0:13:38because I think both Wagner and Verdi are sort of slightly more...
0:13:38 > 0:13:40distinctive, in some ways.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45I'll go for Wagner, just hoping that they were really going over the top.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47OK, Wagner for What's Opera, Doc?
0:13:47 > 0:13:49It is the right answer.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51I would have gone for Mozart.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Oh, dear. Well, you're still very much in it, Diane.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58But a bit of a change here. We go to Sudden Death
0:13:58 > 0:14:00after three questions if it's all square
0:14:00 > 0:14:02and remove the options.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04So I've just got to hear an answer from you.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08Sybil Williams, Susan Hunt and Sally Hay
0:14:08 > 0:14:13were three of the four wives of which actor who died in 1984?
0:14:13 > 0:14:16- Richard Burton?- Yes.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Well done!
0:14:18 > 0:14:20We left the obvious one out there,
0:14:20 > 0:14:22because you would easily have identified him
0:14:22 > 0:14:23if we'd told you the fourth wife,
0:14:23 > 0:14:27who was several...well, twice married to him, Elizabeth Taylor.
0:14:27 > 0:14:28Elizabeth Taylor, yeah.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31You got that through the other three.
0:14:31 > 0:14:36And Pat, who directed the films Sideways and The Descendants?
0:14:36 > 0:14:37Oh...
0:14:38 > 0:14:41He's an up-and-coming American director...
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Clooney in The Descendants.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Let's see. Is he Alexander something?
0:14:51 > 0:14:52Linum, something like that.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56It's not coming. Alexander Wrightman.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Alexander Wrightman.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00But it's not the right answer.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02It is... Other Eggheads, do we know?
0:15:02 > 0:15:05Alexander Payne.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07P-A-Y-N-E. Alexander Payne.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Which means, Diane, you are playing in the final round today.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12THEY CHEER
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Would you both please come back and join your teams.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22Great performance. As it stands, 24 Carat Women and the Eggheads
0:15:22 > 0:15:24have both lost one brain from the final round.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27So we move on to Round 3 and this subject is Geography.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29So, Shirley Anne, Anita
0:15:29 > 0:15:31or Anna - who wants to play?
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Geography.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36OK, I'll go, because I can't be worse at this
0:15:36 > 0:15:38than General Knowledge.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40You need to choose an Egghead to play.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44Now, we've had Pat and Barry, so you've got Judith
0:15:44 > 0:15:47or Chris and Daphne, closer to me.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49I think I'll choose Chris.
0:15:49 > 0:15:50It's going to be Anna and Chris
0:15:50 > 0:15:52heading for the Question Room, please.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Anna, great to have you here.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57It was interesting talking to Diane
0:15:57 > 0:16:00about the huge audiences programmes used to get.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Of course, On The Buses!
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Correct me if I'm wrong, but you playing Olive there...
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Heavily made-up to look so dowdy.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10When you were off-duty, so to speak, were you able
0:16:10 > 0:16:12to more or less walk down the street unmolested?
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Er...not if I had my make-up off.
0:16:15 > 0:16:16LAUGHTER
0:16:16 > 0:16:19If I took the trouble, I might get away with it.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21All right, let's focus on this Geography round.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Would you like to go first or second?
0:16:24 > 0:16:26I'd like to go first, please.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Best of luck. Here you go.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34What name is given to an extensive cluster of towns that together
0:16:34 > 0:16:37form one huge development?
0:16:41 > 0:16:45Well...I think conjugation's something to do with verbs.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50I'm going to go for conurbation,
0:16:50 > 0:16:53because it says something about "urban" there.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55Oh...I could be barking up the wrong tree.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57OK - conurbation?
0:16:57 > 0:16:59- It's the right answer. Well done! - Yeah!
0:17:02 > 0:17:06Chris, what is directly separated from the mainland of Malaysia
0:17:06 > 0:17:08by the Johor Strait?
0:17:11 > 0:17:13Yes, it's always been clearly understood
0:17:13 > 0:17:15these jungles are strictly impenetrable.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17It's the island of Singapore, Dermot.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21This, presumably - your little riff before you gave me the answer -
0:17:21 > 0:17:24- is a reference to...- The guns pointing out to sea in 1942.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26The Fall of Singapore.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28It is the right answer.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Anna, the historic centre of which Belgian city
0:17:33 > 0:17:37was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site
0:17:37 > 0:17:39in the year 2000?
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Well...I haven't a clue.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47But I'm going to go for the one I know best,
0:17:47 > 0:17:48and I'm going to say Bruges.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- OK. Bruges.- Bruges.
0:17:51 > 0:17:52Lovely chocolates.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54It's the right answer as well!
0:17:54 > 0:17:56I'm so excited!
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Lovely buildings.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03Chris. The Myrtoan Sea is a body of water
0:18:03 > 0:18:05bordering which country?
0:18:07 > 0:18:10Well, Chile's just got about 2,000 miles of coast on the Pacific,
0:18:10 > 0:18:12so it's not Chile.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15Never heard of it in connection with Greece, so I'll have to go Japan.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17OK, the Myrtoan Sea.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21- No, it's Greece.- Is it? - Yes, it is. OK.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Well, this is looking better at the moment,
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Anna, and once again, you have your fate in your own hands.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30A correct answer here, you're in the final round.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Bursa - B-U-R-S-A -
0:18:32 > 0:18:37situated on the lower slopes of Mount Uludag,
0:18:37 > 0:18:39is a major city in which country?
0:18:41 > 0:18:43I haven't a clue.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Lucky you can have a guess, then!
0:18:45 > 0:18:48I'm going to go for my lucky number two - Turkey.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51DERMOT CHUCKLES
0:18:52 > 0:18:54It's the right answer!
0:18:54 > 0:18:55NO!
0:18:57 > 0:18:59It's all over. You're into the final round, Anna.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Please come back and join your teams.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Well, well, well, 24 Carat Women!
0:19:05 > 0:19:08I know you didn't think you'd be in this position after three rounds.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11The Eggheads have lost two brains. You've only lost one.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14Will the Eggheads lose again in our next subject?
0:19:14 > 0:19:15It's Sport.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Ah, right, OK!
0:19:17 > 0:19:19It's Shirley Anne or Anita.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22- Sorry!- Shall I, darling?
0:19:22 > 0:19:25- You'll be good.- OK, Anita, and choose an Egghead.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27And it's Judith or Daphne.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Both of the lovely ladies over there!
0:19:29 > 0:19:30Aaah!
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Well...Judith.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36Let's have Anita and Judith into the Question Room, please.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Let's play the Sport round.
0:19:40 > 0:19:41Would you like to go first or second?
0:19:41 > 0:19:43Definitely first, please!
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Anita, first question on Sport.
0:19:49 > 0:19:54In which sport has the Paralympian David Weir won gold medals?
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Wow!
0:20:00 > 0:20:02The name wants me to say swimming,
0:20:02 > 0:20:03but that doesn't help anybody.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05I think it was cycling.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07Eggheads, what do you think?
0:20:07 > 0:20:11It was athletics. He won various track events
0:20:11 > 0:20:13and I think he's won several London marathons
0:20:13 > 0:20:15in the racing wheelchair.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Yeah. OK, it's athletics.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20See how Judith does with her first one.
0:20:20 > 0:20:25Judith, Serena Williams was born how many months after her sister Venus?
0:20:28 > 0:20:30Well, 49 is four years.
0:20:30 > 0:20:34I don't think she's four years younger.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Um...I don't know.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Something is inclining me towards 15 months.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43It is 15, yes. You've got it.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46It's the right answer, so very close in age.
0:20:46 > 0:20:47OK.
0:20:47 > 0:20:51Anita, the Formula 1 driver Pedro de la Rosa
0:20:51 > 0:20:53was born in which country?
0:20:56 > 0:20:58I need my big brother here.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Philip, help me!
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Is he a Formula 1 fan?
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Yes, he is indeed.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08Hope I don't let the girls down, but I think I'm going for Spain.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11OK. It's the right answer.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13- You are off the mark.- Lovely!
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Much better. And Judith,
0:21:15 > 0:21:18who was the captain of the 2012 European Ryder Cup team?
0:21:23 > 0:21:26That was Jose Maria Ol...Ol...
0:21:26 > 0:21:28I can't say it!
0:21:28 > 0:21:29Olazabal!
0:21:29 > 0:21:32Jose Maria Olazabal is the right answer.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Yes. You have two,
0:21:34 > 0:21:36meaning Anita needs this, then.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Which greyhound racing stadium in East London,
0:21:39 > 0:21:42famous for the large neon sign on its frontage,
0:21:42 > 0:21:47closed in 2008 after 75 years?
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Oh, boy! I really don't know this.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55It is a real guess. I'm sorry.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00- I think it might be Walthamstow. - OK, Walthamstow.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02- COCKNEY ACCENT: - Goin' up the 'Stow.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05- It is the right answer! Walthamstow. - How wonderful!
0:22:08 > 0:22:09Well done.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10It's all square,
0:22:10 > 0:22:13but Judith has the chance to win the round with this question.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Judith, the Yorkshire Oaks is a horse race run at which course?
0:22:18 > 0:22:21Oh, that's interesting. Well, they're all in Yorkshire.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25It just seems too obvious to say York.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27But I think I'm going to say York.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29York.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32It's Knavesmire, Barry, isn't it, the course there? Is it there?
0:22:32 > 0:22:34I think it's Doncaster.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Judith knows more about it than you! It's the right answer.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40OK, well, that just puts you through
0:22:40 > 0:22:41to the final round.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45Bad luck with that first one, Anita, or we'd be going to Sudden Death.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48But Judith will be in the final round, and no place for you.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Please come back and join your teams.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54This is what we've been playing towards.
0:22:54 > 0:22:55It's time for the final round,
0:22:55 > 0:22:57which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59But those who lost those head-to-heads
0:22:59 > 0:23:02won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05So Anita and Patti from 24 Carat Women
0:23:05 > 0:23:07and Chris and Pat from the Eggheads,
0:23:07 > 0:23:09would you leave the studio, please?
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Just want a quick chat with you, Shirley Anne.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15We had a question about Richard Burton.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17I know you've acted with so many of the greats -
0:23:17 > 0:23:19did you ever work with him?
0:23:19 > 0:23:21No. I met Richard Burton and had lunch with him
0:23:21 > 0:23:24when I was modelling something for Revlon
0:23:24 > 0:23:26and he paid for acting lessons for me,
0:23:26 > 0:23:28because he said, "You're too short to be a model".
0:23:28 > 0:23:30So that's how I became...
0:23:30 > 0:23:32That's how I knew him.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35But I did meet him and I did like him very much.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37That's a lovely connection. Great memories.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40Let's play the quiz, though. Diane, Shirley Anne and Anna,
0:23:40 > 0:23:42you're playing to win 24 Carat Women £1,000.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45Daphne, Barry and Judith,
0:23:45 > 0:23:47you're playing for something which money can't buy -
0:23:47 > 0:23:49the Eggheads' reputation,
0:23:49 > 0:23:50just in case you didn't know.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53As usual, I ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56That stays the same. The differences are it's General Knowledge
0:23:56 > 0:23:59and you are allowed to confer in this final round.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01So, 24 Carat Women, the question is, are your three brains
0:24:01 > 0:24:03better than the Eggheads' three?
0:24:03 > 0:24:07Diane, Shirley Anne and Anna, would you like to go first or second?
0:24:07 > 0:24:08First.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Best of luck with these.
0:24:14 > 0:24:15First question then for you.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19The main headquarters of General Motors
0:24:19 > 0:24:22are in which US city?
0:24:24 > 0:24:26The main headquarters of General Motors
0:24:26 > 0:24:28are in which US city?
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Detroit.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33Detroit, yes. The original Motown.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35Detroit is the right answer.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38OK, Eggheads, what is the name of the dance group,
0:24:38 > 0:24:40founded in Brighton in 1991,
0:24:40 > 0:24:45whose act incorporates household objects, such pots and pans?
0:24:47 > 0:24:49- Stomp.- Stomp?
0:24:49 > 0:24:51They use dustbin lids and that sort of thing.
0:24:51 > 0:24:55I am reliably informed by Barry that it's Stomp.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Stomp is the right answer.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01And so, back to 24 Carat Women.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05Which Dragons' Den panellist's first business
0:25:05 > 0:25:08was an ice cream van in Stockton-on-Tees?
0:25:15 > 0:25:17I really don't know.
0:25:17 > 0:25:18Peter Jones?
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Well, I think it's Duncan Bannatyne.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23OK.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Go for it.
0:25:25 > 0:25:26Duncan Bannatyne.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29OK, Duncan Bannatyne with his...
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Interesting, given what he's achieved now,
0:25:31 > 0:25:34imagining him serving up the 99s!
0:25:34 > 0:25:36But he did. It's the right answer.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Well done, darling!
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Well done. You have two.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43And Eggheads, in pre-decimal currency,
0:25:43 > 0:25:45how many farthings were there in a half-crown?
0:25:50 > 0:25:51- 120.- Yes.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54A half-crown was two and sixpence, which is 30 pence.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57- Four farthings to a penny, it's 120. - Yes.
0:25:57 > 0:26:03We're all old enough to remember! It's 120.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05120 is the right answer.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08We heard Barry doing the maths there for us.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10OK. Well, this is getting very exciting.
0:26:10 > 0:26:11If you get this right
0:26:11 > 0:26:14and the Eggheads don't get theirs, you've beaten them.
0:26:14 > 0:26:15Right. I can hardly wait!
0:26:15 > 0:26:16Who wrote the music
0:26:16 > 0:26:20for the jazz standard Don't Get Around Much Anymore?
0:26:25 > 0:26:28- Duke Ellington?- I think it is too. - I'm not sure.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Between him and Count Basie.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32What do you think?
0:26:32 > 0:26:35- What does your gut feeling tell you? - Yeah, what's your gut feeling?
0:26:37 > 0:26:39- Count Basie.- OK.- OK.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43We think it could be Count Basie.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46OK, Count Basie for Don't Get Around Much Anymore.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50It's not the right answer! Eggheads, do you know?
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Is it Nat King Cole?
0:26:52 > 0:26:54No, it's Duke Ellington.
