These people are among the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:040:00:09

Together, they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:090:00:11

arguably, the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:110:00:15

The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:170:00:19

Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads,

0:00:230:00:26

the show where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:260:00:28

pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:280:00:32

They are the Eggheads.

0:00:320:00:35

Challenging our legendary quiz Goliaths today are...

0:00:350:00:37

When I heard we were having a team of Apprentice contestants

0:00:400:00:43

it got me thinking there's one Egghead who reminds me of Lord Sugar -

0:00:430:00:47

well-travelled, gets driven everywhere and loves the Spurs.

0:00:470:00:52

Kevin, it's you, of course - or should I call you Lord Ashman?

0:00:520:00:56

-You can if you want to!

-Surely only a matter of time!

0:00:560:01:00

Put the suggestion out there, maybe someone will pick up on it! Fine by me!

0:01:000:01:04

Before he fires me, let's meet the challengers.

0:01:040:01:07

Hi. My name's Adam Corbally, series 8 Apprentice finalist.

0:01:070:01:11

I'm a market trader and I speak in schools promoting enterprise.

0:01:110:01:15

My name's Laura Hogg from series 8 of The Apprentice.

0:01:150:01:18

I was fired week eight, and I'm owner of Laura Reece Bridal in Glasgow.

0:01:180:01:22

I'm Tom Gearing. I was in series 8 of The Apprentice.

0:01:220:01:25

I finished runner-up. I currently run a fine wine company.

0:01:250:01:28

Hi, I'm Katie Wright. I was fired in week six.

0:01:280:01:31

I'm currently business development director at Liberata, a public sector specialist.

0:01:310:01:35

My name is Stephen Brady. I navigated my way to the penultimate week on The Apprentice.

0:01:350:01:40

I've got a couple of businesses,

0:01:400:01:42

one of which is a patented packaging solution suited for the retail market.

0:01:420:01:46

Welcome to you, Sweet Without Sugar, enjoying the team name.

0:01:460:01:50

How hard was it, compared to thinking up whatever teams you formed in The Apprentice?

0:01:500:01:55

-Phoenix was one. What was the other?

-Sterling.

-We were working on Team Phoenix.

0:01:550:01:59

Sweet Without Sugar seems the obvious choice. We're all doing OK since the process.

0:01:590:02:06

We're looking forward to taking on the Eggheads.

0:02:060:02:08

-Don't tell me you didn't enjoy it? You're not traumatised by the treatment?

-No! We loved it!

0:02:080:02:15

It's as nothing compared to what the Eggheads are going to attempt to do to you.

0:02:150:02:19

They're going to try to fire you. You're going to try to fire them.

0:02:190:02:24

You can get rid of them in the head-to-heads.

0:02:240:02:27

Every day, there is £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers' chosen charity.

0:02:270:02:32

If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over.

0:02:320:02:36

Sweet Without Sugar, the Eggheads have won the last six games.

0:02:360:02:39

Which means £7,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:390:02:44

So, our first head-to-head battle is going to be on Sport.

0:02:440:02:49

Who wants to start us off

0:02:490:02:51

and take this one on?

0:02:510:02:54

Stephen, that's yours. I feel confident with that.

0:02:540:02:57

-Who do you want to take on?

-That's the most important question.

0:02:570:03:01

-I'd say Judith.

-Adam, I agree with that. I'll go with Judith.

0:03:010:03:06

Stephen and Judith playing the opening round, Sport.

0:03:060:03:08

You both have to go to the Question Room, so you can't confer with your teammates.

0:03:080:03:13

Stephen, great to have you here. Great to have you all here.

0:03:130:03:17

I always love The Apprentice when it starts

0:03:170:03:21

and they show you all marching around the City of London

0:03:210:03:25

looking butch and business-like.

0:03:250:03:27

I always remember the phrases you come out with. Do they ever embarrass you?

0:03:270:03:32

"Enthusiasm is a huge asset of mine. I believe it's caught and not taught."

0:03:320:03:37

-Do you really think that?

-Actually, I do believe that if you're enthusiastic

0:03:370:03:42

it does influence other people, so I'd stand by that remark.

0:03:420:03:46

Although there are other things I probably wouldn't stand by!

0:03:460:03:49

I just love that! So, what's been the experience after The Apprentice?

0:03:490:03:53

It's a good platform, it gets your face out there, but you've got to do your own thing.

0:03:530:03:59

-How have you been thriving?

-Absolutely, Dermot.

0:03:590:04:02

If you can look silly in front of millions of people on TV,

0:04:020:04:06

you lose the fear of making mistakes, so I've started a couple of businesses.

0:04:060:04:11

It can't get much more stressful than being in the boardroom.

0:04:110:04:15

It's given me a fearless approach. I'm happy to go out and make mistakes, so I've got a lot from it.

0:04:150:04:21

Well, those words you said there could be perfect for what you're about to face.

0:04:210:04:26

Have no fear and try and beat Judith on Sport.

0:04:260:04:30

-Do you want to go first or second?

-I'll go first.

0:04:300:04:33

Best of luck. Off we go. First Sport question to Stephen.

0:04:360:04:39

Which colour ball is worth six points in a standard game of snooker?

0:04:390:04:44

I play a lot of pool. Well, down the local I'll play a game of pool.

0:04:450:04:50

Snooker, I've watched a few World Championships.

0:04:500:04:52

I know the green is not a high-scoring colour.

0:04:520:04:58

Blue's in the middle of the table.

0:04:580:05:00

The pink and the black are near the reds.

0:05:000:05:02

They're the high-scoring colours, so I'll go for pink.

0:05:020:05:05

Pink for six, or one in your case. It's the right answer.

0:05:050:05:10

And Judith.

0:05:100:05:12

Andy Murray won his first Grand Slam singles title in 2012,

0:05:120:05:16

when he defeated which tennis player at the US Open?

0:05:160:05:19

I think that was Novak Djokovic.

0:05:230:05:26

Yes, it was. A famous victory there for Andy Murray and a point for you.

0:05:260:05:31

Switzerland's Nicola Spirig beat Sweden's Lisa Norden

0:05:310:05:36

in a photo finish in which event of the London 2012 Olympic Games?

0:05:360:05:40

I have to be honest, I don't know the answer. This is a difficult one.

0:05:430:05:47

I watched the Olympics. The British athletes stood out, the names.

0:05:470:05:51

This event. I'm going to go, probably...

0:05:510:05:54

quite a random sport, based on the fact that I have not got a clue.

0:05:540:06:00

I'm going to go for... Purely a one-in-three.

0:06:000:06:03

I'm going to go for BMX, but that's a stab in the dark. Let's see.

0:06:030:06:07

Could be a photo finish in any of them, if you didn't see it.

0:06:070:06:12

BMX, it's not. Do you know, Judith?

0:06:120:06:14

-Triathlon?

-Yes, it was.

0:06:140:06:16

I remember watching it,

0:06:160:06:18

thinking it was a dead heat, I don't know how they separated them.

0:06:180:06:23

In 2012, which Formula 1 driver caused a pile-up at the Belgian Grand Prix

0:06:230:06:27

and became the first driver to be banned from a race

0:06:270:06:31

since Michael Schumacher in 1994?

0:06:310:06:34

Um, I'm not quite sure.

0:06:390:06:42

Funnily enough, I did read this, or I saw it on the telly.

0:06:420:06:46

And, of course, it hasn't stuck.

0:06:480:06:50

I have a feeling it's Grosjean.

0:06:500:06:54

-Romain Grosjean is the right answer.

-Oh, it did stick.

0:06:540:06:57

It stuck you into the lead.

0:06:570:07:01

You get through if Stephen doesn't give me a right answer here.

0:07:010:07:05

In which of these sports might competitors execute a Statue Of Liberty play?

0:07:050:07:10

I'm just trying to use logic here.

0:07:130:07:16

Statue of Liberty would suggest a straight formation, maybe,

0:07:160:07:20

with...a striker or somebody playing up top.

0:07:200:07:24

It's a difficult one.

0:07:240:07:26

I'm going to rule out ten pin bowling, based on that formation.

0:07:260:07:31

I've watched a bit of American football

0:07:310:07:34

and have not heard that terminology used in any of the play.

0:07:340:07:38

Based on that logic, right or wrong, I'm going for water polo.

0:07:380:07:41

-Again, not 100% sure.

-A Statue of Liberty play?

0:07:410:07:45

Water polo, American football, ten pin bowling. It is...

0:07:450:07:49

not water polo. Judith?

0:07:490:07:51

-American football?

-It is. Wow! You're on form today!

0:07:510:07:55

And that has taken Judith into the final round. Bad luck, Stephen.

0:07:550:08:00

No place for you. You are fired! Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:08:000:08:06

Your task is to put together a team to try to beat the Eggheads.

0:08:060:08:10

So far, you're not doing well, missing one brain from the final round.

0:08:100:08:15

It's only one round, though. Let's play a few more. The next one is Film & Television!

0:08:150:08:20

Well, you've all been on it.

0:08:200:08:23

There's only one man for it. I think, Adam.

0:08:230:08:27

-Skippy's choice.

-OK? Captain?

-Yeah. Make us proud.

0:08:270:08:31

-Who would you like to play?

-I would like to play the original Egghead himself, Chris, please.

0:08:310:08:38

Both into the Question Room, Adam and Chris.

0:08:380:08:41

OK, Adam. "I get too excited, but that shows my passion, it shows my drive

0:08:420:08:48

"and it shows my ability."

0:08:480:08:50

That kind of happened to you in The Apprentice. You did get excited.

0:08:500:08:54

Absolutely, I got excited and it was contagious. We had a ball. We had a good time.

0:08:540:08:59

What about life after it?

0:08:590:09:01

-Much in demand, aren't you, on the public speaking circuit?

-Yeah.

0:09:010:09:05

Promoting enterprise and starting enterprise on a shoestring budget,

0:09:050:09:09

which is what I did back in the day.

0:09:090:09:12

Life's good at the moment.

0:09:120:09:14

-Do you want to go first or second?

-I'll go first please, Dermot.

0:09:140:09:17

Adam, good luck. Floella Benjamin found fame as a presenter of which children's television programme?

0:09:200:09:27

That was Play School, Dermot.

0:09:310:09:33

-A silence and then the right answer. Well done, Adam.

-Thank you.

0:09:330:09:37

First question to Chris.

0:09:370:09:39

What type of natural disaster features in the 1969 film, Krakatoa: East Of Java?

0:09:390:09:46

One of the great blunders of film publicity!

0:09:490:09:52

Krakatoa's in the Sunda Strait, west of Java!

0:09:520:09:55

It's a volcanic eruption.

0:09:550:09:57

It should have been Krakatoa: West Of Java?

0:09:570:10:00

But it is a volcanic eruption.

0:10:000:10:02

-That actually happened?

-Oh, yeah. 1883. Yeah.

0:10:020:10:05

It's the right answer.

0:10:050:10:08

Adam, the farmer Arthur Hoggett is a character in which film?

0:10:080:10:13

I've no idea, Dermot, to be honest. I've never heard of Seabiscuit.

0:10:160:10:21

I've heard of Babe, which is about the pig.

0:10:210:10:24

I don't know who the farmer was in Lassie.

0:10:240:10:27

As I say, I've never heard of Seabiscuit.

0:10:270:10:29

Hoggett, I'm thinking on the basis that hog is like a pig,

0:10:290:10:34

Babe was a pig, so I'm going to say Babe.

0:10:340:10:37

"That'll do, pig."

0:10:370:10:39

That's the right answer. Wasn't that his phrase, "That'll do, pig"?

0:10:390:10:43

Yeah.

0:10:430:10:45

Chris, which actress first presented the TV series Restoration Home, in 2011?

0:10:450:10:50

< Not Pauline Quirke.

0:10:530:10:55

Caroline Quentin's done a series on Cornwall.

0:10:550:10:59

-So Restoration Home must have been Fay Ripley.

-OK.

0:10:590:11:03

-Restoration Home 2011...

-Mm.

0:11:030:11:06

-It was Caroline Quentin.

-Oh.

-Not Fay Ripley.

0:11:060:11:10

This is good news.

0:11:100:11:12

That means that if you add one more to the two you've already got,

0:11:120:11:16

you are guaranteed a place in the final round.

0:11:160:11:18

It might happen without getting this, but this is the insurance.

0:11:180:11:22

Chris won't face another question if you get this.

0:11:220:11:25

The Oscar-winning French film La Nuit Americaine has what English title?

0:11:250:11:31

I'm going to... I've got to go for what seems like the obvious answer.

0:11:360:11:40

-Night Into Day.

-OK, "night" on "la nuit".

0:11:400:11:44

But, of course, it's in two of the possible answers there.

0:11:440:11:48

It's the other one. It's Day For Night.

0:11:480:11:51

A chance for Chris to level it up.

0:11:510:11:54

Chris, who starred as Wade Hatton in the 1939 film Dodge City?

0:11:540:11:59

Dodge City?

0:12:020:12:04

It's obviously a western.

0:12:040:12:06

Because it's a western and he specialised in westerns,

0:12:090:12:13

I'll have to go with Gary Cooper.

0:12:130:12:15

I thought you'd go that way. Coop? No!

0:12:150:12:18

-Errol Flynn.

-Swashbuckling Errol Flynn

0:12:180:12:21

with the six guns in this one, Dodge City.

0:12:210:12:24

Which means...

0:12:240:12:26

Adam, you got through anyway! You're in the final round.

0:12:260:12:30

Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:12:300:12:33

A positive response means, as it stands, both teams have now lost one brain from the final round.

0:12:330:12:39

Third subject today is Music.

0:12:390:12:41

Three players left from each side.

0:12:410:12:43

Who wants to take it on from Sweet Without Sugar?

0:12:430:12:46

-It has to be me.

-Tom's got so many strong subjects.

0:12:460:12:49

Unfortunately, he's only into his funky house and dance nights!

0:12:490:12:54

-Katie, if you're happy?

-I will give it a go. Great.

0:12:540:12:57

-Take your time and good luck.

-And choose an Egghead.

0:12:570:13:01

Judith and Chris have played, so it's the three in the middle - Daphne, Dave and Kevin.

0:13:010:13:06

I would go, as crazy as it sounds,

0:13:060:13:08

I'd go Dave because he's the youngest out the three that are left.

0:13:080:13:12

Daphne and Kevin will know more...

0:13:120:13:15

My dad said, "Don't take on Daphne cos she's a robot! She gets everything right!"

0:13:150:13:21

-Dave! Yes.

-It's your choice, in the end.

0:13:210:13:25

While you go to the Question Room, we'll check Daphne's robotic circuits there!

0:13:250:13:30

Katie and Dave to the Question Room, please.

0:13:300:13:33

First question. Who said this? "I would call myself the blonde assassin.

0:13:330:13:38

"I let people underestimate me, so I can blow them out of the water."

0:13:380:13:42

Can't imagine anyone with any intellect would say that(!)

0:13:420:13:45

-Dave's not going to underestimate you.

-Not at all after that!

0:13:450:13:49

Blonde assassin's coming looking. Oh, yeah.

0:13:490:13:52

-Would you like to go first or second, Katie?

-I will go first.

0:13:520:13:56

What describes "all things" in the third line of the hymn All Things Bright And Beautiful?

0:13:590:14:06

I have a horrible urge to start singing,

0:14:110:14:14

-which wouldn't benefit anyone.

-Feel free!

0:14:140:14:16

-It is "all things wise and wonderful".

-Yes, it is.

0:14:160:14:21

Which kind of describes

0:14:210:14:23

the members in the studio here today, on both sides.

0:14:230:14:27

Your first question, Dave.

0:14:270:14:29

What is the name of the world tour on which Lady Gaga embarked in 2012?

0:14:290:14:33

I hope it's the Born This Way Ball or I'm in big trouble.

0:14:380:14:41

-Born This Way Ball.

-You're not in trouble. It's the right answer.

0:14:410:14:46

You're off to a solid start.

0:14:460:14:48

Which of these was the title of a UK top ten single for Diana Ross in 1980?

0:14:480:14:54

I don't know.

0:14:570:15:00

My Old Man was not sung by a woman,

0:15:000:15:04

as far as I can remember, so I'm going to rule that one out.

0:15:040:15:08

I don't think I'm going to get further

0:15:080:15:11

by trying to use lack of common sense to apply here.

0:15:110:15:15

I'm going to go with My Old Home.

0:15:150:15:17

My Old Home... It's not. It's incorrect. Dave?

0:15:170:15:22

-My Old Piano.

-It is My Old Piano.

0:15:220:15:26

Nothing there for Katie.

0:15:260:15:28

How will Dave do? "Who broke my heart? You did, you did.

0:15:280:15:32

"Bow to the target, blame Cupid, Cupid"

0:15:320:15:35

are lyrics from which 1980s hit for ABC?

0:15:350:15:38

The soundtrack to a lot of my life.

0:15:410:15:43

The Lexicon Of Love was the album in 1982.

0:15:430:15:46

Shoot that poison arrow through my he-e-eart.

0:15:460:15:49

-Poison arrow.

-OK, it's the right answer.

0:15:490:15:52

Katie, you need this.

0:15:520:15:55

Which British composer dropped the Von from his name during World War I

0:15:550:15:59

possibly due to anti-German sentiment?

0:15:590:16:02

Well, um... Gustav doesn't sound like a very English name,

0:16:060:16:10

so I'm going to rule that one out!

0:16:100:16:13

-I'm going to go for Edward Elgar.

-OK.

0:16:150:16:18

Edward Elgar is not the right answer.

0:16:180:16:21

I think the mistake you made was thinking that one wasn't British.

0:16:210:16:25

They're all British.

0:16:250:16:27

It's the one you identified as sounding Germanic.

0:16:270:16:30

-It is Gustav von Holst.

-Never would have got that.

0:16:300:16:35

I'm sorry, Katie. No place in the final round.

0:16:350:16:38

Dave's already got two and you can't get up to that level.

0:16:380:16:42

-That's all right.

-Would you please come back and join your teams?

0:16:420:16:46

As it stands, two members of Sweet Without Sugar have gone and one Egghead.

0:16:460:16:53

Let's see if it's going to be level with our last head-to-head, Food & Drink.

0:16:530:16:58

Tom or Laura remain.

0:16:580:17:00

- Who feels confident? - Tom's in the wine business.

0:17:000:17:04

- Tom, surely. - It's got to be Tom.

0:17:040:17:07

Yeah, but I...

0:17:070:17:09

I don't want to put myself on his level,

0:17:090:17:12

but me and Tom were talking and he's a drinks guy, I know about food.

0:17:120:17:16

And I do like a good drink, so that's going to come into play.

0:17:160:17:21

You've got to think of going into the last round.

0:17:210:17:25

-I'd rather be sat here with Tom.

-I'm putting my head on the chopping block.

0:17:250:17:30

We're behind you.

0:17:300:17:32

But I think we're best having Tom with you...

0:17:320:17:35

-Yeah and you! So you go up now.

-LAUGHTER

0:17:350:17:38

I'm acting defeated already!

0:17:380:17:41

Who do you want to knock out?

0:17:410:17:43

-I think Kevin.

-I do.

0:17:430:17:46

I'm going to send you off to the Question Room, Laura and Kevin.

0:17:460:17:51

So, Laura, you were going to be one of Scotland's next big exports.

0:17:510:17:56

-Turned out you weren't! You're thriving in Scotland.

-Um, yeah.

0:17:560:18:00

That was a grand statement, but there is life after The Apprentice

0:18:000:18:04

and we're all doing not too badly, including myself.

0:18:040:18:07

-Well, good luck. Do you want to go first or second?

-Let's keep with the trend and go first.

0:18:070:18:13

Laura, first question on Food & Drink.

0:18:160:18:19

A traditional strudel consists of various fillings wrapped in what?

0:18:190:18:23

You're being kind to me on this one. It's pastry.

0:18:260:18:30

It is the right answer!

0:18:300:18:33

And Kevin.

0:18:330:18:35

What is usually added to plain flour to make it self-raising flour?

0:18:350:18:39

That would be yeast.

0:18:410:18:43

Kevin, the curse of Food & Drink!

0:18:430:18:46

-Don't tell me!

-It's baking powder.

-Didn't listen.

0:18:460:18:49

I was turning round to put the next question to Laura already.

0:18:490:18:54

First question, you normally slot those home!

0:18:540:18:57

Great news for you, Laura.

0:18:570:18:59

Kevin on the back foot. Get this and he is really under the cosh.

0:18:590:19:03

Popular in the Middle Ages, what was "hippocras", named after the Greek physician Hippocrates?

0:19:030:19:10

OK.

0:19:140:19:15

Don't think it's grilled beef.

0:19:150:19:18

I think that's probably more popular now than...back then!

0:19:180:19:23

So that's my first one that I'm going to eliminate.

0:19:230:19:27

I mean, it is a guess, at the end of the day.

0:19:270:19:31

Let's go for...

0:19:310:19:33

-the bread, let's do that.

-OK, the bread for hippocras.

0:19:330:19:38

I think the clue to it is the healing idea of Hippocrates,

0:19:380:19:42

Hippocratic oath and all that.

0:19:420:19:44

The great belief in the healing power of alcohol. It's spiced wine.

0:19:440:19:49

-Mm. Never mind.

-So, chance for Kevin.

0:19:490:19:52

You're still in the lead. If Kevin shows his normal assured touch at Food & Drink...

0:19:520:19:57

-LAUGHING:

-..you'll stay in the lead!

0:19:570:20:00

OK, Kevin. Food writer Claudia Roden was born in which country?

0:20:000:20:04

I don't think it's Lebanon.

0:20:070:20:09

But slightly torn between the other two.

0:20:100:20:13

My first thought, though, was Egypt so I'll go with that.

0:20:130:20:17

Egypt for Claudia Roden. You're back in the game.

0:20:170:20:20

Everything to play for, Laura.

0:20:200:20:24

Adobo, A-D-O-B-O, a stew of meat or fish,

0:20:240:20:27

marinated and cooked in vinegar and garlic, is a national dish of which country?

0:20:270:20:32

OK.

0:20:350:20:37

Two rather random key ingredients minus the fish or meat,

0:20:370:20:43

so I was just trying to...

0:20:430:20:45

It's not like there's a particular spice in there

0:20:450:20:49

to try and connect it to one of the places.

0:20:490:20:54

-I'm going to go with Nepal.

-Nepal for this stew, Adobo,

0:20:560:21:01

a stew of meat or fish marinated and cooked in vinegar and garlic.

0:21:010:21:05

It is...not the right answer. Kevin, do you know?

0:21:050:21:09

-It's the Philippines.

-And you knew that one. OK.

0:21:090:21:13

It's very interesting the way this round has swung.

0:21:130:21:16

Kevin has a chance to take it.

0:21:160:21:18

Which confection was reportedly first made at the Palmer House Hotel in Chicago,

0:21:180:21:23

when the chef was asked to make something that ladies could eat whilst attending a local fair?

0:21:230:21:28

If they're attending a local fair,

0:21:310:21:34

presumably they're walking about.

0:21:340:21:37

I take that implication, anyway,

0:21:390:21:41

they're probably walking about from stall to stall,

0:21:410:21:45

if by "fair" we're talking about a fete type of thing.

0:21:450:21:50

Banoffee pie might be a bit tricky for balancing, sort of thing.

0:21:510:21:56

It could, technically, be either of the others.

0:21:560:21:59

You could do that.

0:21:590:22:01

But "ladies"? Cupcake sounds the most likely, so cupcake.

0:22:010:22:06

Cupcake, the Eggheads agreeing,

0:22:060:22:08

but it is chocolate brownie.

0:22:080:22:10

He got two wrong, but so did you, Laura.

0:22:100:22:12

So this round's still alive. It's all-square and we go to Sudden Death.

0:22:120:22:17

We're going to remove options, so I just need to hear the answer.

0:22:170:22:21

Laura, best of luck.

0:22:210:22:23

What type of food are the Norwegian Smultring and the German Berliner?

0:22:230:22:29

Oh! You know what?

0:22:310:22:33

It really could be anything.

0:22:330:22:36

Let's go for...a casserole.

0:22:370:22:39

OK, casserole.

0:22:390:22:41

No. Doughnut.

0:22:410:22:44

-It's doughnuts.

-I had no idea.

0:22:440:22:47

Another chance for Kevin.

0:22:470:22:49

Pissaladiere, a dish from the south of France similar to a pizza,

0:22:490:22:53

traditionally contains which fish?

0:22:530:22:55

I think it's one that I hate - anchovy.

0:22:550:22:59

Anchovy.

0:22:590:23:01

It's a bit Marmitey, the anchovy. You either love it or hate it.

0:23:010:23:05

You might like it now. It's the right answer.

0:23:050:23:08

Bad luck, Laura.

0:23:080:23:10

Thought you were going to do it when Kevin messed up his first one,

0:23:100:23:14

but he fought back and cost you a place in the final round.

0:23:140:23:17

Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:23:170:23:20

This is what we've been playing towards, the final round which, as always, is General Knowledge.

0:23:200:23:26

But those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:23:260:23:29

will not be allowed to take part, so Laura, Katie and Stephen from Sweet Without Sugar

0:23:290:23:34

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

0:23:340:23:38

Adam and Tom, you're playing to win Sweet Without Sugar £7,000.

0:23:380:23:42

Judith, Kevin, Dave and Daphne, you're playing for something money can't buy -

0:23:420:23:46

the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:460:23:48

I'll ask each team three questions in turn, all General Knowledge,

0:23:480:23:53

and you are allowed to confer in the final round.

0:23:530:23:56

So, Sweet Without Sugar, the question is, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?

0:23:560:24:02

-Before we get started, do you want to go first or second?

-First.

-We'll definitely go first, please.

0:24:020:24:08

Good luck. Time for your first question.

0:24:120:24:15

Which TV pub has been managed by characters with the surnames Gilroy, McDonald and Walker?

0:24:150:24:21

-It's not the Queen Vic, cos I watch EastEnders.

-Yeah.

0:24:240:24:27

It's 100% the Rovers Return.

0:24:270:24:30

It is the Rovers Return, of course. Nice start there.

0:24:300:24:36

What is the name of the title creature who speaks for the trees

0:24:360:24:41

in an early 1970s children's book by Dr Seuss?

0:24:410:24:45

That's the Lorax.

0:24:490:24:52

The Lorax is the right answer, Eggheads.

0:24:520:24:55

Back to Sweet Without Sugar.

0:24:550:24:58

Adam and Tom, the word "stogie",

0:24:580:25:01

derived from the name of a town called Conestoga in Pennsylvania, is a term for a type of what?

0:25:010:25:07

I'm fairly certain on this one because Darren Clarke

0:25:110:25:15

has sometimes been smoking a few stogies on the golf course.

0:25:150:25:18

-I'm going to go with cigar.

-"Smoking" is the key there!

0:25:180:25:22

It wouldn't be a biscuit or a hat. It's the right answer.

0:25:220:25:26

Eggheads, what is the predominant colour of the gemstone carnelian?

0:25:260:25:31

C-A-R-N-E-L-I-A-N.

0:25:330:25:35

-That's red, Dermot.

-Red is the right answer.

0:25:370:25:42

Good final round shaping up here.

0:25:420:25:44

Keep up the pressure, Adam and Tom.

0:25:440:25:47

Florence Balcombe, who was once romantically involved with Oscar Wilde, later married which writer?

0:25:470:25:54

I haven't got a clue, mate.

0:25:580:26:00

-Bram Stoker did Dracula.

-Yeah.

0:26:000:26:04

Never heard of George Bernard Shaw. Never heard of James Joyce.

0:26:040:26:07

I know James Joyce. I haven't heard of George Bernard Shaw.

0:26:070:26:10

Who'd have been alive at the same time?

0:26:100:26:12

-All I'm thinking, Florence Balcombe, the name...

-Yeah.

0:26:120:26:16

..sounds like it might come from the same country as Bram Stoker.

0:26:160:26:20

Balcombe, Bram. That's all I can...

0:26:200:26:23

That's a very tedious link, but I'm just...

0:26:230:26:26

trying to put this girl with one of those three.

0:26:260:26:29

I was kind of against Bram Stoker because...was it vampire or Dracula?

0:26:290:26:33

-He wrote Dracula.

-How long ago was that, though?

0:26:330:26:37

When Dracula came out, it was about, the film...

0:26:370:26:41

-It is a book, though?

-It was Bram Stoker's...

0:26:410:26:44

-But if...

-I don't know. I made it...

-Difficult, isn't it?

0:26:440:26:48

-Agh!

-Ain't got a clue.

-You're captain. What do you reckon?

0:26:480:26:52

Mate, I've made the decisions all day.

0:26:520:26:54

We've got a third chance. I'm behind you.

0:26:540:26:57

-We'll go with James Joyce.

-James Joyce for Florence Balcombe.

0:26:570:27:01

Married, you think, after an involvement with Oscar Wilde?

0:27:010:27:06

Eggheads, what did you make of all that?

0:27:060:27:08

-James Joyce?

-He's the one it's not.

0:27:080:27:11

I'm not sure about the other two.

0:27:110:27:14

-It's probably Shaw.

-I'd have gone Bram Stoker.

0:27:140:27:17

Bram Stoker. It is Bram Stoker.

0:27:170:27:19

You're right about Dracula.

0:27:190:27:22

Didn't get it there.

0:27:220:27:24

It's a crucial point at which to falter.

0:27:240:27:26

The Eggheads have a chance to win the game.

0:27:260:27:28

What is the capital of the Cayman Islands?

0:27:280:27:31

< Plymouth's Montserrat and Hamilton's Bermuda.

0:27:340:27:36

-George Town.

-So it's George Town.

0:27:360:27:39

Well, Hamilton's the capital of Bermuda.

0:27:390:27:43

Plymouth is the capital of Montserrat.

0:27:430:27:46

Ergo, George Town.

0:27:460:27:48

You're doing it by elimination but you knew it anyway, I suspect.

0:27:480:27:53

-Yes.

-It is the right answer. Eggheads, you've won.

0:27:530:27:57

Bad luck, three-two, no disgrace against the Eggheads. Thank you very much for playing.

0:28:010:28:07

We're nice to you. We don't say, "You're fired."

0:28:070:28:09

We say, "Thank you very much." We're "sweeter" than Lord Sugar.

0:28:090:28:13

Thank you in the Question Room for trying, but ultimately failing, to beat the Eggheads.

0:28:130:28:19

Those Eggheads have done what comes naturally and their winning streak continues.

0:28:190:28:23

You haven't won £7,000, which means the money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:230:28:27

Congratulations, Eggheads. Who will beat you?

0:28:270:28:31

Join us next time, to see if a team of comedians have the brains to defeat our Eggheads.

0:28:310:28:37

£8,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
