0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11Together they make up the Eggheads,
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?
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads,
0:00:25 > 0:00:28the show where a team of five quiz Challengers pit their wits
0:00:28 > 0:00:32against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34They are the Eggheads.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38And challenging the quizzing prowess of the Eggheads today are...
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Now, not wanting to put pressure on them,
0:00:40 > 0:00:44but this team is striving to uphold the quizzing reputation of the BBC's
0:00:44 > 0:00:48Children's Department, in particular two stalwarts of the schedules,
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Blue Peter and Newsround - and they have promised not to utter
0:00:52 > 0:00:54the words, "That's a bit before my time, Jeremy."
0:00:54 > 0:00:55Let's meet them.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Hello, I'm Katie Thistleton.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00I'm a presenter and author, and if you're a child, you'll probably
0:01:00 > 0:01:03know me from the bits in-between the shows on CBBC,
0:01:03 > 0:01:06and I occasionally do some presenting on BBC Radio 1 as well.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Hi, my name's Radzi Chingyanganya and I'm very proud to say that I'm
0:01:09 > 0:01:12a Blue Peter presenter, and when I'm not doing that,
0:01:12 > 0:01:14I'm either presenting in sport or Songs Of Praise.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Hello, my name is Hayley Hassall. If you're under the age of 12,
0:01:17 > 0:01:20you probably know me from Newsround on CBBC.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Otherwise you may have seen me
0:01:22 > 0:01:24reporting for Panorama or The One Show.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27Hello, I'm Martin Dougan, and I'm a children's BBC presenter.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31You'll see me on programmes like Newsround and The Let's Go Club.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32Hi, I'm Ayshah Tull.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36You might know me from Newsround, I'm one of the presenters.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39If I'm not doing that, then I'm out travelling or playing netball.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41So, Katie and team, hello.
0:01:41 > 0:01:42- Hello.- Hi.- Hi! - Good to see you.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Katie, you're leading a serious team here, I can see.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47Yeah, I don't really know how that happened.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49I don't feel like I'm the leader. But, yeah...
0:01:49 > 0:01:51- You are now.- Yeah, you are. - As the skipper,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54have you got some kind of battle plan or something like that?
0:01:54 > 0:01:56Erm, no, I would quite like to do music, I think,
0:01:56 > 0:01:57but we'll have to fight over that one.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59I think we all sort of want music and film and TV,
0:01:59 > 0:02:02and none of the others, basically, so we're going to have to fight.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04Yeah, cos I'm thinking, Radzi,
0:02:04 > 0:02:06that some of the stuff that you guys will be very good at,
0:02:06 > 0:02:09which is probably music in the last ten years,
0:02:09 > 0:02:11is a bit exposing for them, actually.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Yeah, I think we've got a lot of specialist knowledge,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16but that's around a very, very small gamut of information,
0:02:16 > 0:02:19so if that comes up, I think we're going to smash it,
0:02:19 > 0:02:21but we're not feeling too confident, to be honest.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24But good early use of the word "gamut", that's good.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27He always comes up with random words like that!
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Radzi, have you watched the show before?
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Do you know what you're dealing with here?
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Absolutely, and I'm looking over at Kevin because this man is the
0:02:35 > 0:02:40greatest quizzer on the planet, and so we're going to take him on!
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Radzi really wants to take on Kevin because I think
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Radzi's probably the most competitive out of all of us,
0:02:45 > 0:02:46he's the sporty one, he likes a challenge,
0:02:46 > 0:02:48so I think you want to take on Kevin, don't you?
0:02:48 > 0:02:49You've got to take on the greatest.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52It's like, if I'm going to do the 100 metres, take on Usain Bolt!
0:02:52 > 0:02:54It's a great team, thank you so much for coming in,
0:02:54 > 0:02:56it's great to see you, very exciting for us, actually.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our
0:02:59 > 0:03:00Challengers' chosen charity.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money
0:03:03 > 0:03:04rolls over to the next show.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08So, Big Kids, the Eggheads have won the last five games
0:03:08 > 0:03:10against the celebrities,
0:03:10 > 0:03:13which sets you up in some ways rather nicely, looking on the bright
0:03:13 > 0:03:17- side here, cos it means they've built up a jackpot of £6,000...- Wow!
0:03:17 > 0:03:20..which you can steal from them by defeating them today.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21Simple as that.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Sport.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27- Ooh...- So, you need to choose one of yourselves to play,
0:03:27 > 0:03:30and then you play against either Judith, Kevin, Beth, Chris or Dave.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33- OK, well, I think, did we say Radzi or Martin for this?- Radzi, Martin.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Radzi, I think perhaps you're going to take this on.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38- Aye, Radz, I think you've got it. - I'm up for this, yeah, bring it on.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41- I'll take this on, please, Jeremy. - Radzi, straight into the breach, OK.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Well, I think we do know who you're going to pick, do we?
0:03:43 > 0:03:46- Yeah, we know already.- It's going to be the great man. Kevin, please.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48I love that you love the show, it's brilliant.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51Radzi from the Big Kids is going to take on the grand master,
0:03:51 > 0:03:54as we call him, Kevin from the Eggheads, on Sport.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions now in
0:03:57 > 0:03:58the legendary Question Room.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03OK, Sport, Radzi, good luck here, really rooting for you.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07- Do you want to go first or second? - Erm, I'll go first, please.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12And here we go.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16Which tennis Grand Slam tournament is played on a clay surface?
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Radzi, is it...
0:04:21 > 0:04:27So I know the US and the Australian Open are played on hard courts,
0:04:27 > 0:04:32Wimbledon's grass, so the French, which I think is called the
0:04:32 > 0:04:37Ronald Garros, is played on clay, so I'll go with the French Open please.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Quite right. French Open, well done. Good stuff, Radzi.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42OK, Kevin, over to you.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44How many other people were in his boat when the rower
0:04:44 > 0:04:49Steve Redgrave won the fifth Olympic gold medal of his career?
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Right, so that's, obviously being the fifth, that's, erm,
0:04:53 > 0:04:56the sort of end of his run there,
0:04:56 > 0:05:02and by that stage, he was part of a pair, so the answer would be one.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06- No, Kevin.- Mm?- No. Have I misunderstood something here?
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Well, I think you've misrecalled something.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10- Dave was shaking his head.- Dave?
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Yeah, well, the fifth one was in 2000 in Sydney,
0:05:12 > 0:05:17and he was with three other people. It was the coxless fours.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21- It's the coxless fours... - Ah, OK.- ..Kevin, 2000 in Sydney.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23- OK, misunderstood. - Game on, Radzi!- Yeah.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25JEREMY LAUGHS
0:05:25 > 0:05:26I've gone 1-0 up
0:05:26 > 0:05:29and if that's all I get, I'll take it at this point, Jeremy.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32Listen, get the next two right, you knock out Kevin,
0:05:32 > 0:05:36and they could go down like a pack of cards.
0:05:36 > 0:05:37Here's your question.
0:05:37 > 0:05:42Which of these golfers, born in 1955, spent a total of 331 weeks
0:05:42 > 0:05:48as the world's number one ranked male golfer in the 1980s and '90s?
0:05:52 > 0:05:56So golf isn't one of my areas of expertise, it has to be said.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00It's not Tiger Woods because he was late '90s, early noughties,
0:06:00 > 0:06:05You mentioned two decades, I think it's going to have to be a great.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09So I'm going to go, with hesitation, with Jack Nicklaus.
0:06:09 > 0:06:10It's Greg Norman.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Sorry, you got it wrong. We go to Kevin.
0:06:13 > 0:06:18The Nigerian-born Herbie Hide is a former world champion in
0:06:18 > 0:06:20which sport?
0:06:24 > 0:06:27Er, he, I think he... was based in East Anglia
0:06:27 > 0:06:28if I remember correctly.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32Anyway, he was a boxer. He was a heavyweight boxer.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Boxing is quite right. So, let's see, level after two.
0:06:36 > 0:06:37Third question now.
0:06:37 > 0:06:42Lucy Bronze, who featured on the 12-person short list for
0:06:42 > 0:06:45the 2015 BBC Sports Personality of the Year award,
0:06:45 > 0:06:48is a famous name in which sport?
0:06:51 > 0:06:53It's amazing being here.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57All of a sudden, all knowledge just escapes the brain.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59I know it's not athletics.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01She doesn't ring any bells in cycling.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04I'm pretty sure the answer's football.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07If I was sat at home in my armchair, I'd be 99% it's football,
0:07:07 > 0:07:09so I'm going to go football.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11I love the way you just put yourself in
0:07:11 > 0:07:13a different place there to focus the mind.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Football's right, Radzi. Well done.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18- Yay!- Really good. That's a very tough question.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Get this wrong, Kevin, and you will have been knocked out.
0:07:21 > 0:07:26In 2014, which rugby league player became the first man to be
0:07:26 > 0:07:28sent off in a Super League Grand Final?
0:07:33 > 0:07:35No, that one's got me, I'm afraid.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Rugby league is not a...particular speciality.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40I honestly don't know,
0:07:40 > 0:07:42so I'm going to go down the middle with Ben Flower.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46- Dave?- Very happy with that. Yeah, it was Ben Flower.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Ben Flower is the right answer, Kevin. Well done.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51After three questions, the scores are level. Oh, Radzi!
0:07:51 > 0:07:56- You ran him so close there!- I've had Yoda on the ropes, but I'm happy.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- I'll be honest, I'm happy. - Well, look, it's poised now.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Sudden Death, we go to. Gets a bit harder.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03I don't give you alternatives.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07In 2016, England's one day international cricket captain
0:08:07 > 0:08:12Eoin Morgan made the controversial decision not to take part in
0:08:12 > 0:08:15his team's tour of which Asian country?
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Cricket is not an area of knowledge for me.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Probably that and golf are my two worst,
0:08:20 > 0:08:24so I'm now trying to think where the one day internationals would
0:08:24 > 0:08:28even happen at and...India, Pakistan, Bangladesh,
0:08:28 > 0:08:30are ringing a bell, Sri Lanka maybe.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32Um...
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Going to go for...
0:08:34 > 0:08:36..India.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38- Kevin, do you know? - I think it's Bangladesh.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Bangladesh is the answer.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- OK.- For security reasons. Kevin, to take the round.
0:08:43 > 0:08:48From 2004 to 2008, which male tennis star set a record
0:08:48 > 0:08:54of 237 consecutive weeks as the world's number one ranked player?
0:08:54 > 0:08:58Well, if it's between 2004 and 2008,
0:08:58 > 0:09:00it was towards the end of that period
0:09:00 > 0:09:05that Rafa Nadal started to come in and contest it really,
0:09:05 > 0:09:10but from 2004 onwards, and I think he won his first Grand Slam
0:09:10 > 0:09:14maybe in 2003, I think it would have been Roger Federer.
0:09:14 > 0:09:15So, Roger Federer.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18For the round. Roger Federer is the right answer. Well done, Kevin.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Sorry, Radzi. Played well there.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- I enjoyed it.- We got a couple of your blind spots there, didn't we?
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Absolutely. That's what this game's all about though.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27I took on the great man and I lost,
0:09:27 > 0:09:29but hopefully I gave him a good fight.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31That's very sporting of you. Well done.
0:09:31 > 0:09:32Come back and we will play Round Two.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37So, a little bit of early trouble for our celebs.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40The Big Kids have lost one brain from the final round.
0:09:40 > 0:09:41They've lost Radzi.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44The Eggheads are all sitting there, a little bit too smug, I think.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- The next subject is Geography. - Oh!- Who's the traveller?- Oh, no!
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Ayshah, we said you'd take this one for the team!
0:09:51 > 0:09:53- This is my worst nightmare. - Ayshah, is it you?
0:09:53 > 0:09:57- It is, unfortunately, me! I'm going to have to.- You or Martin.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59You've got a geography degree, haven't you?
0:09:59 > 0:10:02I do have a geography degree. That doesn't necessarily help.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05And in fact, it makes it more embarrassing if I get it wrong.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07I can see my geography teacher going, "Are you serious?!"
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Yes, I know what you mean cos that does put the pressure on,
0:10:10 > 0:10:13but anyway, if it's you, do you want to choose somebody?
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Anyone but Kevin.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17- I choose Judith.- You may.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- I haven't done Geography for ages. - You like a little jaunt.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Yes, I like a little jaunt!
0:10:23 > 0:10:26That's made me feel worse for my decision, but, yeah.
0:10:26 > 0:10:27Ayshah, from Big Kids,
0:10:27 > 0:10:30playing Judith from the Eggheads, on Geography.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Let's see what happens. Please take your positions.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Good luck in this round, Ayshah.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Geography. We'll pass over your degree in geography.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40I don't want to put the pressure on you.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Do you want to go first or second? - I'll go first.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49And here we go. Good luck against Judith.
0:10:49 > 0:10:54Exmoor National Park stretches from Somerset into which other county?
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Um, this is where being a Londoner really doesn't help,
0:11:00 > 0:11:03in not knowing much outside the M25.
0:11:03 > 0:11:08It's going to have to be a complete guess. And I'll say West Sussex.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10OK.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12- It's Devon.- Oh, how annoying!
0:11:12 > 0:11:15- I know!- How annoying! - I'm so annoyed with Devon now.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18OK, Judith, your question.
0:11:18 > 0:11:23Which body of water separates Hampshire from the Isle of Wight?
0:11:26 > 0:11:28That is the Solent.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31It is the Solent, Judith.
0:11:31 > 0:11:32I thought you were going to slip up on that.
0:11:32 > 0:11:37Ayshah, which of these volcanoes is on an Italian island?
0:11:41 > 0:11:46Um, I would have thought Hekla doesn't necessarily sound...
0:11:46 > 0:11:49Italian. I would've...
0:11:49 > 0:11:54My instinct was Stromboli, but I'm not sure.
0:11:56 > 0:12:00I'm going to go with Stromboli.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04I'm so glad you did. Stromboli is the right answer. Well done.
0:12:04 > 0:12:05That's good.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09OK, Judith. Melbourne is the capital of which Australian state?
0:12:14 > 0:12:18I'm so bad... Well, it's definitely not Tasmania cos that's Hobart.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22Um, well, Melbourne was a great favourite of Queen Victoria.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27I think I'm going to say Victoria.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30- On the basis that Queen Victoria liked Melbourne?- Yes.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33That's good enough for me. Victoria's right.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35- Oh, thank goodness for that!- Ah!
0:12:35 > 0:12:37All right. You can pull back with this question.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Ayshah, which of these countries is the smallest by area?
0:12:43 > 0:12:48I would have thought Sudan's quite big by area, from what I know.
0:12:48 > 0:12:52Ah, it's between Spain and South Korea really, I think.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56I'm going to say South Korea.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Radzi, do you like that?
0:12:57 > 0:13:01- I think so.- Radzi likes it and it's right. South Korea is correct.
0:13:01 > 0:13:02- Yes!- Good!
0:13:02 > 0:13:06Two out of three, well done. OK, Judith.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09If you get this wrong, Judith, we go to Sudden Death.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13The town of Stroud is in which English county?
0:13:16 > 0:13:20The dreaded Devon again. Um, it's in Gloucestershire.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23My daughter-in-law lives in it.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26- She lives in Stroud?- Yes.- Gosh!
0:13:26 > 0:13:28- Lucky!- That is so annoying! LAUGHTER
0:13:28 > 0:13:31That's really annoying!
0:13:31 > 0:13:34So there's no doubt here, is there?
0:13:34 > 0:13:36I can't even do any tension moment here.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Gloucestershire's the right answer, Judith. Well done.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41You're in the final round. Sorry, Ayshah, but you played well.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45It's funny cos in a way, the easiest one was the first one
0:13:45 > 0:13:48and you got the two harder ones right, so well done.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51Come back to us, rejoin your teams. We'll play Round Three.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55OK, as it stands, the Big Kids have lost two brains from the
0:13:55 > 0:13:59final round, the Eggheads have not lost any, so now's the time.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01This is the moment for the comeback now.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04- Come on!- Come on, guys! The next subject for you is Science.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08- I said I'd take one for the team with science.- OK, Katie.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10But I'm not basing that on anything.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Hayley, do you think you'd be better than me at science?
0:14:12 > 0:14:14No, of course not! You're wonderful!
0:14:14 > 0:14:17- I don't know anything about science, but none of us do.- OK.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19So you've had a bit of battle planning.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22So, Katie, the team captain, goes into the breach,
0:14:22 > 0:14:23against which Egghead?
0:14:23 > 0:14:26And it can be any of the three on the left there.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28Dave and I are both from the same neck of the woods,
0:14:28 > 0:14:31- so I was thinking we could have a bit of a Manchester off.- Yeah.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32Mancunian versus Mancunian.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35- So, yeah, Dave?- I'll go for Dave. - All right, good.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Katie, from the Big Kids, versus Dave, Tremendous Knowledge Dave,
0:14:37 > 0:14:39as we call him, from the Eggheads.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45All right, good luck on science, Katie.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47You can choose whether you go first or second.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Let's hope you can turn it around here.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51I'll go second and see how that works out for me.
0:14:55 > 0:14:56Dave, your first question.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01What common name is given to the sac that encloses the human heart?
0:15:01 > 0:15:02Sac is S-A-C.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08That's the pericardium.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11It is the pericardium. All right. Katie.
0:15:11 > 0:15:16For what does the first S stand in the name of the respiratory
0:15:16 > 0:15:18illness known as SARS?
0:15:18 > 0:15:19S-A-R-S.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Well, I want to say severe.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28I'm going to go with my gut instinct and say severe.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31OK, let's check with Beth cos she will know this. Beth?
0:15:31 > 0:15:35Yes, it is severe. It stands for severe acute respiratory syndrome.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38Severe acute respiratory syndrome, says Beth. Well done, Katie.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41- Thank you.- OK, Dave, your question.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44"I have not failed 10,000 times.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48"I have successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work,"
0:15:48 > 0:15:50is a quote attributed to which inventor?
0:15:55 > 0:15:57I'm not particularly sure about this,
0:15:57 > 0:16:01but I've not heard of that from James Dyson.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05I'm going to discount Henry Ford and go for Thomas Edison.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07And you're right. Well done. Thomas Edison.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Katie, here's your question.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13Which breed of dog, famous for having loose wrinkly skin,
0:16:13 > 0:16:18has a name from the Chinese for sand skin?
0:16:21 > 0:16:27Hm, I know a shar pei does have very loose, wrinkly skin.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31I think a chow has more sort of fluffy fur.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33I'm not really sure about saluki,
0:16:33 > 0:16:36although they all sound like they could be...right.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38I think I'm going to go with shar pei.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Your dog knowledge has stood you in good stead. Shar pei is right.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43- Well done. Two out of two. - Thank you.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47Dave, the British doctor Sir Ronald Ross received the Nobel Prize
0:16:47 > 0:16:51in 1902 for his work on which disease?
0:16:55 > 0:16:59Always get these confused, but I'm going to go, in this case,
0:16:59 > 0:17:01for malaria, please.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03Malaria is quite right. OK.
0:17:03 > 0:17:063-2, cos you let him go first, Katie.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08So the pressure's on a little bit.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10You need this right to stay in.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14Cytology is the scientific study of what?
0:17:17 > 0:17:20I don't really know. Could be any.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23I'm going to just go for cells, please.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25- Do you like that, team-mates?- Yes!
0:17:25 > 0:17:27They like it, you're right. Well done!
0:17:27 > 0:17:29- Three out of three for you both. - Yes!
0:17:29 > 0:17:32- Right, OK, Dave, we go to Sudden Death. You go first.- Yeah.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34And it gets a bit harder.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37There are two elements in the periodic table whose names
0:17:37 > 0:17:41begin and end with the letter N.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Neon and which other?
0:17:43 > 0:17:44Nitrogen.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46Nitrogen is quite right, Dave.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Katie.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Sudden Death.
0:17:52 > 0:17:57The subfamily of birds called Picinae, known for their loud
0:17:57 > 0:18:01drumming, are more commonly known by what name in Britain?
0:18:01 > 0:18:02A woodpecker?
0:18:02 > 0:18:04- Woodpecker's right!- Yes!
0:18:04 > 0:18:05Great!
0:18:05 > 0:18:07OK, Sudden Death. Equal.
0:18:07 > 0:18:08Back to you, Dave.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11What is the atomic number of Oxygen?
0:18:11 > 0:18:13Oh, I could get this wrong.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16It's one of two.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18No, I'm not going to change my mind. Eight.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Eight is right.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23So, Dave has got it right. It's Sudden Death we're on.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Katie, in 2016, which country launched the spacecraft
0:18:27 > 0:18:31Hitomi to observe X-rays in space?
0:18:31 > 0:18:33It's H-I-T-O-M-I.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36H-I-T-O-M-I.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Is it Russia?
0:18:38 > 0:18:39Hitomi is Japan.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Oh, I was going to say Japan!
0:18:41 > 0:18:43- I'm gutted!- Oh, Katie!
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Oh, Dave is through to the final round, but well done.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47- Thank you.- Well played. - You've done really well.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Beaten by our Egghead, so as a result, not in the final.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53One more round to play. Please return to us.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58OK, Big Kids have lost a third brain now from the final round.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00The Eggheads are still all there.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02The next subject is Film & TV.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04- There we go.- Oh, nice one. Now we're talking.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- Do you want me to go?- Just win it for me.- I'll go. I'll take the Film.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11- I'll take Film & TV.- OK, Martin.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15Newsround presenter. Against which Egghead?
0:19:15 > 0:19:18- And you can have Chris or Beth. - I'll have Chris, please.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20OK, so Martin from the Big Kids,
0:19:20 > 0:19:23taking on Chris from the Eggheads. Film & TV the subject.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25For the last time, please go to the Question Room.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30So you've been watching the team going in to bat here, Martin.
0:19:30 > 0:19:31What's been going through your mind?
0:19:31 > 0:19:34I'm hoping... I really want to win. I'm getting quite competitive.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36All right, brilliant.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39Film & TV, Martin. Do you want to go first or second against Chris?
0:19:39 > 0:19:41I'm going to go first, please.
0:19:44 > 0:19:48So, good luck getting yourself in the final, so Hayley's not alone.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50Here's your question.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54The Pontipines and Wottingers are characters in which
0:19:54 > 0:19:56children's TV show?
0:20:00 > 0:20:03I just know for a fact that my six-year-old daughter Jessica
0:20:03 > 0:20:08is screaming at the TV right now. She's like, "Daddy! I know this!"
0:20:08 > 0:20:11I don't think it's Justin's House.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14I don't think it's Peppa Pig because the amount of Peppa Pig
0:20:14 > 0:20:18I've watched over the last six years is unbelievable.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21I could be wrong. But I'm going to say In The Night Garden.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23That was my initial thought
0:20:23 > 0:20:26I don't know where it's coming from, but I hope I'm right.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29- You are right. In The Night Garden. Well done.- Ah!
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Well done. Well done. You can go home.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34Your daughter will be proud.
0:20:34 > 0:20:39Chris, which film studio made the 2016 animated film Finding Dory?
0:20:42 > 0:20:45That is from Pixar.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48It is from Pixar. Have you seen it?
0:20:48 > 0:20:51- No, of course not.- No. Not yet.- Silly question.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53OK. Back to you, Martin.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56Which real life figure has been played on screen by, among others,
0:20:56 > 0:21:00Kurt Russell, Bruce Campbell, and Don Johnson?
0:21:00 > 0:21:01Is this...?
0:21:04 > 0:21:08Um, and I don't why but I can just see Kurt Russell playing
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Elvis Presley, so I'm going to go straight down the middle,
0:21:11 > 0:21:13and I'm going to go Elvis Presley.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Elvis Presley is correct. Well done.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17Chris,
0:21:17 > 0:21:20the Back To The Future films are set in which town?
0:21:24 > 0:21:28Ah, well, tautology, it's Hill Valley.
0:21:28 > 0:21:29- It is Hill Valley.- Mm.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Martin, over to you.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35You're doing well. Two out of two. Your third question.
0:21:35 > 0:21:39Which TV drama series won a record breaking 38th Primetime
0:21:39 > 0:21:41Emmy Award in 2016?
0:21:45 > 0:21:49Um, I don't think it's House of Cards.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Something's pulling me towards Downton Abbey.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54But it could be Game of Thrones.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58But again, for the third time,
0:21:58 > 0:22:02I'm just going to go with my instinct and go with Downton Abbey.
0:22:02 > 0:22:03Downton Abbey.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06- It's Game of Thrones.- Argh!
0:22:06 > 0:22:08So, Game of Thrones is the answer.
0:22:08 > 0:22:12It's 2-2. Chris has a question in hand. Chris, your question.
0:22:12 > 0:22:17Who plays the role of Carol Vanstone in the 2016 film
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Office Christmas Party?
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Sounds like the sort of thing Jennifer Aniston would do,
0:22:26 > 0:22:28so I'd say Jennifer Aniston.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Jennifer Aniston is the right answer, Chris.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- You got three out of three. Sorry, Martin.- Oh!
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Knocked out. I'm so sorry!
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Return to us and we will play the final.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40This is what we have been playing towards,
0:22:40 > 0:22:43it is time for our final round. As always, General Knowledge.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:22:46 > 0:22:48won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51And they're all from the Challengers' side.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54So it's Katie and Radzi and Martin and Ayshah from the Big Kids.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Would you please now leave the studio?
0:22:57 > 0:23:01OK, Hayley. How are you doing there? I know this wasn't quite the plan.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04This is the worst thing that could have ever happened.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Right now, I'm living it.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08- Nightmare.- No, but in a way, it's the moment, isn't it?
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Because they've all been in the booth and this is your solo moment.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13I'm trying to get the positivity out of that, Jeremy,
0:23:13 > 0:23:15- but I'm not getting anything. - I'm trying to help.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18You are playing to win the Big Kids £6,000.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Dave, Chris, Beth, Kevin, and Judith, you're playing for
0:23:21 > 0:23:24something that money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27So, as usual, I'm going to ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:27 > 0:23:28They're all General Knowledge.
0:23:28 > 0:23:32You can confer. Sorry, that doesn't help you on your own.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35Hayley, the question is, can your one brain defeat these five?
0:23:35 > 0:23:38I bet it can. Would you like to go first or second?
0:23:38 > 0:23:40I'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45- OK, good luck, Hayley.- Thank you.
0:23:45 > 0:23:51The city of Reno, famous as a centre for gambling, is in which US state?
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Is it...?
0:23:55 > 0:23:56Gosh!
0:23:57 > 0:23:59I've been to Nevada.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01I can't remember it being there.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03I want to say North Dakota.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06I'm going to say North Dakota, but I have actually no idea.
0:24:06 > 0:24:07OK, North Dakota.
0:24:07 > 0:24:11Now, I'm just thinking here, you went to Las Vegas, did you,
0:24:11 > 0:24:15- in Nevada?- Yeah.- Is that right? So, Las Vegas, Nevada.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Is Reno near Las Vegas or not?
0:24:17 > 0:24:18- It's in the same state.- Same state.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20- Oh!- It is in Nevada.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22Argh!
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Nevada is the answer, Hayley.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Eggheads, your question.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30Which 1991 Nirvana album featured the song Smells Like Teen Spirit?
0:24:34 > 0:24:36- Nevermind. Nevermind.- Nevermind. Nevermind, definitely.
0:24:36 > 0:24:41- Are we all positive?- Yes, I think so.- That's Nevermind, Jeremy.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Nevermind is the right answer.
0:24:43 > 0:24:47- Now, I knew that one!- I know. I know you knew that. I know you knew that.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49OK, here's your question.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53A shot of which spirit is drunk alongside or added to
0:24:53 > 0:24:57a beer to make the drink called a Boilermaker?
0:25:00 > 0:25:04I've no idea, but I'm just thinking that a Boilermaker would be hot and
0:25:04 > 0:25:09hard-hitting, so I think whisky is the sort of thing that you
0:25:09 > 0:25:14associate with warmth and strength, so I'm going to go whisky.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16- Whisky is the right answer, Hayley. - Wahey!- Well done.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20Good stuff. OK. Because it would be easy to go wrong on that one.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24You did well. So, Eggheads, which British Overseas Territory
0:25:24 > 0:25:29has the top level internet domain code .KY?
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Hm, KY. Any immediate thoughts?
0:25:38 > 0:25:41- No.- No. Not yet.- Nothing?
0:25:41 > 0:25:42It's not the Channel Islands.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Do you think it's an alternative spelling for Cayman?
0:25:44 > 0:25:47That's the closest thing I can come up with.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Maybe there's already a CY.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Chris is saying that Channel Islands is CI.
0:25:51 > 0:25:56But why wouldn't that come under UK, .co.uk?
0:25:56 > 0:25:59Would they have separate ones for Jersey and Guernsey?
0:25:59 > 0:26:01- Yeah, they would, yeah. - I don't know, but...
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Yeah, is CY Cyprus?
0:26:03 > 0:26:05It could well be, yeah.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09- Could CY be Cyprus?- They're quite arcane, the domain names.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11KY could be the Cayman Islands?
0:26:11 > 0:26:14CI, that would be Cote d'Ivoire, for instance.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Yeah, KY. Yeah, that sounds -
0:26:16 > 0:26:18- that's as good as we've got really. - Makes sense.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20I can't see a reason why it would be the Falkland Islands.
0:26:20 > 0:26:24- So far.- OK. So, we eliminated Channel Islands cos it's not
0:26:24 > 0:26:26a British Overseas Territory.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28So that means we were left with the Falkland Islands and the
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Cayman Islands. And going from the linguistic clues with the K,
0:26:31 > 0:26:34we are going with the Cayman Islands.
0:26:34 > 0:26:38.KY is the Cayman Islands, well done, Eggheads.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41A little bit of careful work there.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45- So, third question. You need to get this one right, Hayley.- Right.
0:26:45 > 0:26:46- No pressure.- OK?
