0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:32 > 0:00:35They are the Eggheads! Are you feeling fit and well, Eggs?
0:00:35 > 0:00:37- Oh, yes, yes.- Yeah.- Tiptop.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40That's important cos taking on the might of our quiz goliaths today
0:00:40 > 0:00:42are Doctors' Mess.

0:00:49 > 0:00:50Let's meet them.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Hello, I'm Dr David Bull.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56I'm a physician and accident and emergency doctor by trade
0:00:56 > 0:00:59but I've spent the last 20 years broadcasting.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Particular highlights include Newsround, Watchdog Healthcheck,
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Tomorrow's World and The Wright Stuff.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09And so really my whole thing is making science and medicine sexy.
0:01:09 > 0:01:10I'm Dr Ellie Cannon.
0:01:10 > 0:01:15I'm a NHS GP and you'll find me on TV and radio commenting
0:01:15 > 0:01:21on health and the NHS, most often in the mornings on Sky News.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24I'm Dr Javid Abdelmoneim, I'm an A&E doctor in London,
0:01:24 > 0:01:26but also with Medecins Sans Frontieres around the world.
0:01:26 > 0:01:30You would have seen me in the BBC Panorama special about Ebola.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Hi, I'm Dr Linda Papadopoulos, I'm a psychologist.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37The first time that I spoke about psychology on TV was during
0:01:37 > 0:01:38the first Big Brother series,
0:01:38 > 0:01:40where I was the resident psychologist there.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43Since then I've fronted several shows on places like Discovery
0:01:43 > 0:01:46and TLC and I'm a regular on Sky Sunrise.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50Hi, I'm Dr Ranj Singh, I am a paediatric doctor.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53I'm also one of the resident doctors on ITV's This Morning.
0:01:53 > 0:01:58And you might have seen me singing and dancing on CBeebies' Get Well Soon.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- So, David and team, hello. - Hello.- Great to see you all.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04And what about this, David? Normally it's medicine and all that,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07- and now it's quizzing.- Yes, and I have to say, as you can see,
0:02:07 > 0:02:10we've assembled an eclectic group of doctors.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13And this is really to show that we are, you know, passionate,
0:02:13 > 0:02:17personable, this is the new face of medicine. So we're here to help.
0:02:17 > 0:02:22And I assume that you are... You're knowledgeable because you're clever
0:02:22 > 0:02:24but I guess you're...
0:02:24 > 0:02:25THEY LAUGH
0:02:25 > 0:02:29You are very brainy at one thing but does it go wider than that?
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Well, I think it depends on specialties.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35You know, if you become a true specialist you tend to know an awful lot about a little.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Whereas someone like myself is more of a generalist,
0:02:38 > 0:02:39so I know a little about a lot.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41But, you know, the concern is
0:02:41 > 0:02:44we get asked medical questions and we won't know the answers!
0:02:44 > 0:02:47- That's the real worry! - That's always the scariest thing,
0:02:47 > 0:02:49is being asked about your own subject, yeah.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52Here we go. This is fun. Thank you so much for coming in.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55I'm really excited. My first celeb show here.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our Challengers' chosen charity.
0:02:59 > 0:03:04However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07So, Doctors' Mess, as this is the first of our celebrity specials here
0:03:07 > 0:03:10on Eggheads, there's £1,000 to play for. £1,000 says
0:03:10 > 0:03:12you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15- Would you like to try? - Yes.- Definitely.- OK, here we go.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19Stethoscopes out, and the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21Oh, look at that.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22- Ellie!- Hey!
0:03:22 > 0:03:25Who wants this?
0:03:25 > 0:03:28You can choose between, by the way, Beth, Kevin, Chris, Dave and Lisa.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Go on, then, I'll risk it, in case it's pop music. I'll try.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33You're looking at me as if to say, "What are the questions?"
0:03:33 > 0:03:35I don't know. I haven't seen them.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38All right. So it's Dr Ellie from Doctors' Mess against which Egghead?
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Any one of the five. What a selection.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44- I think Chris.- I think Chris, too. - I think Chris. It's like picking the weakest one, isn't it?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- I think we're going to choose Chris. - You're choosing Chris.
0:03:47 > 0:03:48How about that, Chris?
0:03:48 > 0:03:51Well, you know my parameters - no rap, no Sugababes,
0:03:51 > 0:03:54no Pussycat Dolls. Other than that, I'm OK.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58It is Dr Ellie from Doctors' Mess versus Chris from the Eggheads.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00The subject is Music. How exciting is this?
0:04:00 > 0:04:04To ensure there's no conferring, please go to our famous Question Room.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06So Dr Ellie, on Music, here we go.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10We've got the quiz under way, and would you like to go first or second?
0:04:10 > 0:04:12I think I'll go first.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20OK. Good luck. You're a Radio 2 voice - I'm rooting for you here.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24In which year, Ellie, was the singer Bing Crosby born?
0:04:30 > 0:04:33Well, if he...
0:04:33 > 0:04:35If he was born...
0:04:35 > 0:04:37It's definitely not 1953.
0:04:37 > 0:04:38Definitely not.
0:04:38 > 0:04:43If he was born in 1933 he'd be about 80-ish by now,
0:04:43 > 0:04:48and I know that he's no longer with us,
0:04:48 > 0:04:49Um...
0:04:49 > 0:04:52I'm going to guess
0:04:52 > 0:04:541903.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Do you like that, doctors? Yes, they think that's right.
0:04:57 > 0:04:591903 is the right answer, Ellie, well done.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Well done, first point to our doctors.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Chris, here's your question.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Who was the frontman of the boyband Westlife?
0:05:12 > 0:05:15That was... Hang on, was it?
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Yes, it was. Ronan Keating.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19- Well done, Chris, you got it wrong. - Hmm?
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Shane Filan is the answer I wanted there.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23You knew that, Ellie, didn't you?
0:05:23 > 0:05:25All right. Ellie, hold focus now.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Which of these Beatles albums was released first?
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Well, my son Jude is a huge Beatles fan,
0:05:37 > 0:05:39so I'm going to have to get this right for him.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Well, Sgt Pepper was late so it's not Sgt Pepper.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44I'm going to go with...
0:05:46 > 0:05:48..A Hard Day's Night.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51A Hard Day's Night is quite right, well done. Ellie, good stuff,
0:05:51 > 0:05:53two out of two.
0:05:53 > 0:05:54OK, Chris.
0:05:54 > 0:05:59You need to get this right or you're out.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01You've been anaesthetised!
0:06:01 > 0:06:07In which Christmas carol is "O tidings of comfort and joy" a repeated line?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17# ..tidings of comfort and joy... #
0:06:17 > 0:06:20- God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. - Well done, Chris, you're right.
0:06:20 > 0:06:21It is God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Let us see if Ellie can put you to rest
0:06:23 > 0:06:25with her third answer.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Get this right, Ellie, you're in the final.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31Forever Young, Tears and So Good
0:06:31 > 0:06:33are UK hit singles by which singer?
0:06:38 > 0:06:42It is Louisa Johnson and if I got that wrong I don't think my daughter
0:06:42 > 0:06:44would speak to me when I went home.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Louisa Johnson is quite right. Well done -
0:06:47 > 0:06:48you're in the final round.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50What about that?
0:06:50 > 0:06:52The doctors have struck early here.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Chris, you didn't even know what happened there, did you?
0:06:55 > 0:06:58I was stitched up by modern so-called "music"!
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Yeah, that's about the size of it.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04Good choice to pick Chris. Chris is out, Ellie is in the final.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06Please return to us and we'll play on.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Well, what a great start for our doctors here.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12They have not lost any brains from the final round,
0:07:12 > 0:07:15the Eggheads have lost Chris because George Formby didn't come up.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17The next subject for you is Sport.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19CHALLENGERS GROAN Oh, dear.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Yes, this is our weakness.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23- Is this you, Ranj? - No, no, this is...
0:07:23 > 0:07:25- This is...- It's not? - This is not me at all.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- None of us.- I think it's going to have to be... I think it's going to have to be...
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Well, if I did it it would be hopeless.
0:07:30 > 0:07:31- Yeah, I'll go.- Ditto.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33- Are you sure?- OK, Javid.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- I'm going to do badly.- All right.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Before you go you can choose any Egghead - obviously not Chris.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40- Choose one of them.- Lisa?
0:07:40 > 0:07:41I think, I don't know.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44OK, we've decided Lisa, I think.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Good stuff. Javid from Doctors' Mess versus Lisa from the Eggheads.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50To ensure that there's no conferring, please go to the Question Room.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52OK, we're going to play Sport, Javid.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Do you want to go first or second against the great Lisa?
0:07:55 > 0:07:56I'll go second.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Here we go, Lisa in first.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Which of these sports is typically played on a pitch or court
0:08:04 > 0:08:06with the largest area, Lisa?
0:08:10 > 0:08:11Please tell me that's football.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14It would just be silly if it wasn't football, wouldn't it?
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Yeah, of course it's football. It's football.
0:08:16 > 0:08:17Football is correct.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20Your question, Javid.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23How many Olympic gold medals has Usain Bolt won?
0:08:27 > 0:08:31Right, so I think I actually know this because he...
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Um...
0:08:33 > 0:08:35He runs the 100, the 200 and one of the relays and he's done it
0:08:35 > 0:08:37in three Olympics in a row.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40So three times three is nine.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42I think Linda knows this. Linda?
0:08:42 > 0:08:44- Is he right?- Definitely. Triple triple.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Triple triple, you're right.
0:08:46 > 0:08:47Nine is the answer.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Well done.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53Lisa, the darts player Michael van Gerwen was born in which
0:08:53 > 0:08:56country in 1989?
0:09:00 > 0:09:03He is generally known as the Flying Dutchman. Goes very, very fast.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05He was born in the Netherlands.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Netherlands is the right answer.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10Javid, your second question.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14The boxer Rocky Marciano was a celebrated world champion
0:09:14 > 0:09:15at which weight?
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Was Rocky...
0:09:19 > 0:09:22Gosh. Well, this is going to be a big guess.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26And I'm going to choose between middle and heavy.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29So I'm going to choose middle.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31- Middleweight.- Middleweight is your answer.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- Dave knows all about boxing. Dave?- He was a heavyweight.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Yeah. Anything more you can tell us, Dave?
0:09:36 > 0:09:40Yeah, he was undefeated, 49 fights,
0:09:40 > 0:09:42retired undefeated.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Heavyweight is the answer, Javid, sorry.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47So heavyweight is the answer there.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50Lisa has a chance to take the round with this question.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Which South African cricketer was fined for ball tampering
0:09:53 > 0:09:55in November 2016?
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Now, this is the sort of thing where I glance at the headline
0:10:01 > 0:10:03and hope it's enough to get me through
0:10:03 > 0:10:05and I have an idea it's du Plessis, but...
0:10:07 > 0:10:09..it's only a very, very vague idea.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11It's not like the rest are going to pop up and...
0:10:11 > 0:10:12Or is it Graeme Smith?
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Oh, here we go, here we go.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18I don't think you're going to base it on anything more than
0:10:18 > 0:10:19a one-in-three guess.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21So let's try
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Graeme Smith.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25The answer is Faf du Plessis.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Oh, never swerve away from your first instinct.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30Yeah, when you said that, I thought, "There she goes."
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- Silly girl.- OK. That's handy, Javid,
0:10:33 > 0:10:36- a slight let-off but you need to get this one right to stay in.- Yes.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40Elliot Daly was sent off while representing England in which
0:10:40 > 0:10:42sport in November 2016?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Right, I mean, this is, this is, you know, revealing
0:10:49 > 0:10:51my total ignorance of sport.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53I haven't got a clue.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Mmm...
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Again, a one-in-three chance.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00I will go for football.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04- No!- Football. Your team said, "No."
0:11:04 > 0:11:05What was it, team?
0:11:05 > 0:11:08- Hockey, probably.- You think hockey. Lisa, do you know?
0:11:08 > 0:11:09I think he's a rugby player.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12Rugby union is the answer Javid, I'm sorry.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14- Oh, dear.- You've been knocked out by Lisa,
0:11:14 > 0:11:16who goes through to our final round.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Cricket notwithstanding!
0:11:18 > 0:11:19Cricket notwithstanding!
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Please rejoin your team-mates.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27So, as it stands, Doctors' Mess have lost a brain from the final round -
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Dr Javid has gone and Lisa triumphed on Sport.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32The Eggheads have lost a brain as well, though.
0:11:32 > 0:11:33Very level so far.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36You're going to like this, doctors - the next subject is Science.
0:11:36 > 0:11:37THEY CHUCKLE
0:11:37 > 0:11:39- Now...- Who'd like that one?
0:11:39 > 0:11:40- The stakes are high.- Can I take it?
0:11:40 > 0:11:42- Would you like that? - Yeah, I can take it.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44- Either one of us can take it.- Yeah. Either.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Take your pick, team captain.
0:11:46 > 0:11:47- Either of us.- You had other ones.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50I've got other ones, so you take that, yeah, yeah.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52- OK.- I'll take this. Good idea.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Ranj, our paediatric doctor, against which Egghead?
0:11:54 > 0:11:55Can't be Chris or Lisa.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57I'm going to go for David.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- OK, David. - I like it - the Sunday name!
0:12:00 > 0:12:02- A little bit formal, yeah. - Yes, thank you, Doctor.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Tremendous Knowledge Dave, as he's known.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06So it's Ranj from Doctors' Mess
0:12:06 > 0:12:08versus Dave from the Eggheads on Science.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Bear in mind we've got doctors here.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13This could be lively. Please go to the Question Room now.
0:12:15 > 0:12:16So you got Science.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18I'm thinking that's either very high stakes, Ranj,
0:12:18 > 0:12:20or actually the best subject for you.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23Because obviously you're all kind of scientific on your team.
0:12:23 > 0:12:24Let us see. You against Dave.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Would you like to go first or second, Ranj?
0:12:26 > 0:12:29I think I'm going to go first.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Here we go. In the human body,
0:12:35 > 0:12:38calcium is essential for the formation of what?
0:12:41 > 0:12:43If I get this wrong I'd be in a lot of trouble, wouldn't I?
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Um, I'm going to go for bones.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Bones is correct. You would have had to leave by the back door.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Although, mind you, a million hits on YouTube, you know.
0:12:52 > 0:12:57Dave, which of these is a chemical element on the periodic table?
0:13:00 > 0:13:03It's not silk and it's not plastic, it's iron.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Iron is correct.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07It may get harder.
0:13:07 > 0:13:08Ranj, back to you.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Of these planets...
0:13:10 > 0:13:11Oh...
0:13:11 > 0:13:13..which is closest to the Earth?
0:13:17 > 0:13:19So...
0:13:19 > 0:13:22it's the order from the Sun.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24I'm really going back to GCSE now.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27It's Mercury, Venus, Earth, Neptune...
0:13:27 > 0:13:29- Mars.- Saturn...- No!
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Uranus and then Pluto.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36I know Uranus and Saturn are big, big planets and Mars is the tiny one
0:13:36 > 0:13:38that we can actually see sometimes.
0:13:38 > 0:13:39I'm going to go for Mars.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41- Yes!- OK, team, what do you think of that?
0:13:41 > 0:13:43- Yes!- You like it.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46So Mars is closest. Well done.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48OK. Dave, your question.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51What name is given to a camel that has two humps?
0:13:57 > 0:14:00Ha-ha, I always get these mixed up.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02So it's not guanaco.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05I always thought a dromedary had one and a bactrian two,
0:14:05 > 0:14:08so I'm going to go bactrian but I could be very, very wrong.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10- Eggs?- Yes.- Bactrian.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13They confirm you're right, bactrian is the right answer.
0:14:13 > 0:14:14It's one of those questions!
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Classic quiz questions. Now, most people go dromedary.
0:14:17 > 0:14:18Yes, the one you know.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20OK.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Ranj, your question. Get this right, put the pressure on Dave.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27What is the literal meaning of the name of the Stegosaurus dinosaur
0:14:27 > 0:14:30when translated from the Greek?
0:14:36 > 0:14:40See, Linda, you'd be perfect for this.
0:14:42 > 0:14:43I'm so sorry.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46I'm probably going to get this hideously wrong.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52Because Stegosaurus is the one with the big tooth-like things on it,
0:14:52 > 0:14:57so I'm going to go for heavy tooth.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Heavy tooth is your answer. Linda does know this. Linda, help us.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02It's roof lizard, literally translated.
0:15:02 > 0:15:03"Stegi" means "roof".
0:15:03 > 0:15:06All right, this is going to be painful, Ranj.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08- It's roof lizard.- Oh!
0:15:09 > 0:15:10Sorry, Linda.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12But you're not out.
0:15:12 > 0:15:13It's two each.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16What is the technical term for sneezing?
0:15:16 > 0:15:17Dave, is it...
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Right.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30I thought horripilation was goose bumps.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34I like sternutation, to be perfectly honest.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36So, yes, sternutation, please.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40Sternutation. This is a classic doctor's question. Is he right?
0:15:40 > 0:15:42- We think so.- We think so, yes.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44Sternutation is the correct answer.
0:15:44 > 0:15:45Sorry, Ranj.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Well, I gave it my best shot.
0:15:48 > 0:15:49You did, you did.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Beaten by our Egghead, out of the final round.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Please return to us and we'll play one more round.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58OK, hearts beating a little bit faster here.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Doctors' Mess have lost two brains now from the final round.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04The Eggheads quite cool and collected - they've just lost Chris.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Let's see if you can get your own back.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08The next subject is Arts & Books.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Now, it's going to be either David or Linda.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- What do you think? - It's not my main topic.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17- I'm happy to do it if you don't... - I'm happy to do it, it's not mine.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Does one of you feel super-strong?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Rock, paper, scissors. Rock, paper, scissors.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22- OK.- Rock, paper, scissors.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Paper beats rock.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26What does that mean? Does that mean you do it or you don't do it?
0:16:26 > 0:16:29- You should do it.- That means you do it.- That means you do it.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Off I go, I apologise in advance.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34- Good luck.- So before you go, choose an Egghead.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36And you've only got Kevin and Beth left.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Beth's been smiling at me, so lovely,
0:16:38 > 0:16:40I'm lulled into a false sense of...
0:16:40 > 0:16:42I'll go with lovely Beth.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45OK. Dr Linda from Doctors' Mess plays Beth from the Eggheads
0:16:45 > 0:16:47on Arts & Books.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50To ensure there's no conferring, for the last time, go to our Question Room.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55All right. Well, you're up against Beth on Arts & Books
0:16:55 > 0:16:58and, Linda, you can choose whether you go first or second.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02Just as well get the pain over with, so first, please.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Here we go with your first question, Linda. Good luck.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Which of these fictional characters appeared in print first?
0:17:18 > 0:17:22Well, I-I... It's definitely not Katniss Everdeen.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24I doubt that it's James Bond.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26I'll go with Frankenstein's monster.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29Frankenstein's monster is the right answer.
0:17:29 > 0:17:30Beth, your question.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34Women In Love is a 20th-century novel by which author?
0:17:38 > 0:17:40That's a novel by DH Lawrence.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42DH Lawrence is quite right.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Dr Linda, back to you.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46Who is the central character in the Charles Dickens novel
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Great Expectations?
0:17:52 > 0:17:56Ah, I don't know. I've never read Great Expectations.
0:17:56 > 0:17:57Um...
0:17:57 > 0:18:00I'm guessing because you've got two answers with Ps in them
0:18:00 > 0:18:02it's one with a P,
0:18:02 > 0:18:07and Pickwick seems slightly more familiar so I'm going with Pickwick.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10- Does anyone here know? - Yeah, it's Pip.- It's Pip Pirrip.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13The other one is Pickwick Papers.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15And Mr Micawber, Eggheads, is?
0:18:15 > 0:18:17- David Copperfield. - David Copperfield.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21All right, Beth, to take the lead.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25Monarch Of The Glen is a famous 1851 painting of a stag
0:18:25 > 0:18:28by which artist? Beth, is it...?
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Turner's...
0:18:36 > 0:18:37is landscapes.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41Stubbs does primarily horses but I think this is Landseer.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45- Edwin Landseer. - Edwin Landseer's right.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47So Beth takes the lead.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51And, Doctor, you need to get this one right.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Which of these is an influential painting by the artist Claude Monet?
0:19:01 > 0:19:05He was an Impressionist and I don't know if Impression: Sunrise
0:19:05 > 0:19:07is put in there to confuse.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09Um...
0:19:10 > 0:19:15I'm in between Sunrise and Earthly Delights.
0:19:19 > 0:19:20I'm going to go Sunrise.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22I'm so glad you did - you're right.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25- Phew!- Well done. I know what you mean, you're thinking, hang on,
0:19:25 > 0:19:29has some cruel person put the word "impression" in to throw you
0:19:29 > 0:19:32off the scent? No, is the answer. It was the right answer. Well done.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34OK. So, level.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36But Beth has a chance now to take the round.
0:19:37 > 0:19:41How did the poet Shelley die in 1822?
0:19:45 > 0:19:50Lots of people died of consumption or TB, I suppose, around that time.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54One of those poets drowned but I don't know which one,
0:19:54 > 0:19:57one of those romantic poets around the same time drowned.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00I'm not sure about heart attack.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06Now, in my head, I thought Byron had drowned.
0:20:06 > 0:20:07I'm...
0:20:09 > 0:20:11I'm going to go with consumption.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14I don't know how Byron died but Shelley did drown.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Oh, he was the one that drowned.
0:20:16 > 0:20:17Very sadly, Shelley drowned.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19So we go to Sudden Death.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22It gets a bit harder. I don't give you alternative answers.
0:20:22 > 0:20:23Here is your question, Linda.
0:20:23 > 0:20:28In 2016, which actress received a record eighth Olivier award
0:20:28 > 0:20:32for her performance as Paulina in The Winter's Tale?
0:20:34 > 0:20:36I really don't know this.
0:20:36 > 0:20:37Paulina...
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Dame Judi Dench?
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Judi Dench is the right answer.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Ah!
0:20:46 > 0:20:49I'm so excited! I didn't know!
0:20:49 > 0:20:51All right, doctors.
0:20:52 > 0:20:53Let us see.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57Which Englishman was awarded the 2005 Nobel Prize in Literature,
0:20:57 > 0:21:01Beth, and was described by the judges as someone who, in his plays,
0:21:01 > 0:21:07uncovers the precipice under everyday prattle and forces entry
0:21:07 > 0:21:10into oppression's closed rooms?
0:21:12 > 0:21:15One's come to mind but I don't know whether he's English.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19But as it's... I think it's the best I've got.
0:21:19 > 0:21:20Philip Roth?
0:21:22 > 0:21:23- Eggheads, do you know this? - Harold Pinter.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26- Harold Pinter is the answer. - Oh, of course, of course.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Well done, Linda - you're through to the final round.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32Well done. A bit of a slip and a trip from our Egghead and you have
0:21:32 > 0:21:35emerged triumphant, so you will be in the final.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37If you return to us, we will play the final round.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41So, this is what we have been playing towards -
0:21:41 > 0:21:43it is time for the final round which,
0:21:43 > 0:21:44as always, is General Knowledge.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed
0:21:47 > 0:21:49to take part in this round.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53So it's Javid and Ranj from Doctors' Mess and also Chris and Beth
0:21:53 > 0:21:56from the Eggheads. Would you please now leave the studio?
0:21:58 > 0:22:02David, Ellie and Linda, you are playing to win Doctors' Mess £1,000.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04Well done for getting this far. Lisa, Dave, and Kevin,
0:22:04 > 0:22:06you're playing for something that money can't buy,
0:22:06 > 0:22:09which is the Eggheads' precious reputation.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15They're all General Knowledge. You can confer.
0:22:15 > 0:22:16So, Doctors' Mess, the question is,
0:22:16 > 0:22:21can your three celeb brains take down these three Eggy ones
0:22:21 > 0:22:23over here? And, David, Ellie, Linda,
0:22:23 > 0:22:25would you like to go first or second?
0:22:25 > 0:22:27We'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33OK. David and team, good luck.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35What type of animal is a capercaillie?
0:22:40 > 0:22:41I can spell it if you like.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43- Can you spell it?- It's all one word.
0:22:43 > 0:22:48C-A-P-E-R-C-A-I-L-L-I-E.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50- Capercaillie.- Capercaillie.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Caillie - is that French for something?
0:22:53 > 0:22:55- Latin root.- If it was French, then it would be caillou,
0:22:55 > 0:22:59which is a song. So then it could be something... It could be a bird.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Or a monkey, maybe.
0:23:01 > 0:23:02Why did you...?
0:23:02 > 0:23:05- Caillou.- Oh, no, that isn't. That isn't French for a song, is it?
0:23:05 > 0:23:07- Is that French for...? - Capercaillie.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10- It's not.- I originally thought monkey.- I thought monkey.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12I don't know why.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15I think, like, if monkey feels instinctual, we can't...
0:23:15 > 0:23:20- So a capercaillie monkey?- I think we...- Well, since we don't know...
0:23:20 > 0:23:24So we think it...is a monkey.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26A monkey.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29I saw you rootling around the world looking for little derivations.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31I'm going to just ask the Eggs whether you know.
0:23:31 > 0:23:32It's a bird.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35It's... It's a Gaelic word.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37A Scottish Gaelic word.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39It's just, um...
0:23:39 > 0:23:40It's a member of the grouse family.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42The largest member of the grouse family.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45- Yeah.- Capercaillie is a bird.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Eggheads, your first question.
0:23:47 > 0:23:52What is the name of the virus that is commonly known as chickenpox?
0:23:55 > 0:23:58There are some well sulky doctors over there, right now.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59Happy with varicella?
0:23:59 > 0:24:00Varicella, yeah. Definitely.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Because it's...
0:24:02 > 0:24:04Parotitis is mumps, rubella is German measles.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Yeah.
0:24:06 > 0:24:07Parotitis - mumps,
0:24:07 > 0:24:09rubella is German measles,
0:24:09 > 0:24:10so it's varicella.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12Varicella is your answer.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Doctors, can I check with you?
0:24:14 > 0:24:17The right answer is varicella.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20You should have got the monkey question, and then they should
0:24:20 > 0:24:23- have got that.- Yeah! - Chickenpox question.
0:24:23 > 0:24:24- Yes.- OK.
0:24:24 > 0:24:28Hang on in there, doctors. Don't let the heads drop, OK?
0:24:28 > 0:24:29We can do it.
0:24:29 > 0:24:30Rooting for you here.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34Which British actress played the role of Jyn Erso
0:24:34 > 0:24:38in the 2016 film Rogue One: A Star Wars Story?
0:24:44 > 0:24:46- I don't think it's Gemma Arterton. - Why?
0:24:46 > 0:24:49Because I saw a lot of publicity about Rogue One.
0:24:49 > 0:24:50Have you seen it?
0:24:50 > 0:24:53My son has seen it but I haven't seen it.
0:24:53 > 0:24:58I think it's Hayley Atwell, or Felicity Jones.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59Um...
0:24:59 > 0:25:01If we're stabbing in the dark,
0:25:01 > 0:25:04which we pretty much are, I'm pretty sure I saw...
0:25:04 > 0:25:07Felicity Jones feels a bit more familiar to me.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11- So...- I think that name rings a bell more for me than Hayley Atwell
0:25:11 > 0:25:14but that's all I can contribute. I don't know if I've read headlines...
0:25:14 > 0:25:17And mine would be a guess, a complete guess.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19So let's go for it, then.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21The ladies say Felicity Jones.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23Oh, doctors.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Oh, no, it's Gemma Arterton.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27- You're absolutely right.- Oh, good!
0:25:27 > 0:25:30Well done. Very good quizzing by Ellie especially there.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32- Yeah, very good.- Very good quizzing.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34OK, you hung on in there.
0:25:34 > 0:25:38But we move on and the Eggheads have a chance to take the lead.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41Who was appointed the UK's Health Secretary in 2012?
0:25:45 > 0:25:48Er, Jeremy Hunt. He's been there for a few years now.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50Yes, yes, Jeremy Hunt.
0:25:50 > 0:25:55It's quite a long-running member of the Cabinet in the one position,
0:25:55 > 0:25:57it's Jeremy Hunt.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59Maybe it's good I didn't ask you this one.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Jeremy Hunt is the right answer.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Because I know there are strong views, sometimes.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06Say no more. OK, they take the lead.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08You have to get this one right.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10- I know.- No pressure.
0:26:10 > 0:26:14The new Winston Churchill £5 note caused controversy in 2016
0:26:14 > 0:26:16after its issue,
0:26:16 > 0:26:21due to the fact that it included which animal-derived substance?
0:26:24 > 0:26:25- It's rennet.- It's tallow.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27- Are you sure it's tallow? - For sure it's tallow.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30But I thought the whole point was that it was because vegetarians
0:26:30 > 0:26:33- complained, correct?- Yes, and tallow is from animal fat.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36- But isn't rennet? - They're all from animals.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40Lanolin is from sheep, rennet goes into cheese,
0:26:40 > 0:26:42tallow, you make candles with...
0:26:42 > 0:26:44I remember tallow because I didn't know what tallow was
0:26:44 > 0:26:47- and I had to look it up at the time.- Yes.
0:26:47 > 0:26:48So that was the controversy.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51Basically it was a polymer but then it transpired that the vegetarians
0:26:51 > 0:26:54were unhappy because there was an animal derivative in it.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58Therefore, and Linda remembers it, so it's tallow.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Well, OK, you've said tallow.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03And if it is wrong, the contest is over
0:27:03 > 0:27:04but it's right. Well done.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Tallow's right. Listen, you've done well,
0:27:06 > 0:27:09you've got two out of three. We just have to hope that the Eggheads
0:27:09 > 0:27:13slip up now. OK, Eggheads. This, for the contest.
0:27:13 > 0:27:17In a 2016 episode of the TV series "Who Do You Think You Are?",
0:27:17 > 0:27:21it was revealed that which actor was a direct descendant
0:27:21 > 0:27:24of King Edward III of England?
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- It's Danny Dyer.- It's Danny Dyer. - Definitely.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32He turned out to be descended from royalty, yes.
0:27:32 > 0:27:33Danny Dyer.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38There was quite a bit of publicity about this, because
0:27:38 > 0:27:41you wouldn't necessarily think of him as the most obviously descended
0:27:41 > 0:27:44from royalty person, with the best will in the world,
0:27:44 > 0:27:46but we think it's Danny Dyer.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49The answer is indeed Danny Dyer.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51We say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won!
0:27:57 > 0:28:00Doctors, you were brilliant. I hope you enjoyed it.
0:28:00 > 0:28:01Yeah, great fun, thank you.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04I felt especially, Linda, with the pressure... My goodness,
0:28:04 > 0:28:05I could see it.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08Commiserations overall. The Eggheads have got a habit of doing this,
0:28:08 > 0:28:11I'm afraid, reigning supreme over quiz land.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14It does mean that you haven't won the princely £1,000,
0:28:14 > 0:28:17so the money rolls over to our next celebrity show.
0:28:17 > 0:28:21Eggheads, well done. No mercy from you ever, is there?
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Sorry, no, it just goes against the grain.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25I'm sure Linda could write a paper about it.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27Wasn't it great to see them, though?
0:28:27 > 0:28:31- It was, it was fantastic.- Fantastic team, thank you.- Thanks, guys.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34Join us next time to see if a new team of Challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37There'll be £2,000 for our celebrities to play for.
0:28:37 > 0:28:39Till then, goodbye.
