0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads,
0:00:26 > 0:00:30the show where a team of five quiz Challengers pit their wits
0:00:30 > 0:00:32against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34They are the Eggheads.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Here you are. Are you ready for the race?
0:00:36 > 0:00:38- Yes.- On the blocks. - Good, very good.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41Trying to push our Goliaths into second place
0:00:41 > 0:00:43today are the Para-Rangers.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46Now, this team of athletes have been thrilling us with their
0:00:46 > 0:00:50sporting excellence at Paralympic Games going back to Sydney 2000.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53They have set world records and won multiple medals.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56But will it be the Eggheads or the Challengers
0:00:56 > 0:00:59running the victory lap at the end of the final round?
0:00:59 > 0:01:01- Let's meet them.- I'm Danny Crates,
0:01:01 > 0:01:05former Paralympic athlete and gold medallist from Athens 2004.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08The only member of the team who has retired.
0:01:08 > 0:01:09An old has-been, I guess.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11But I now work as a motivational speaker
0:01:11 > 0:01:12and a little bit in television.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16Hi, I'm Megan Giglia. I am a para-cyclist, track and road,
0:01:16 > 0:01:20and I am double world champion and world record-holder...
0:01:20 > 0:01:22and scapegoat for the team.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Hi, I'm Jonathan Broom-Edwards, I'm a Paralympic high jumper
0:01:24 > 0:01:27and I won a silver medal at Rio.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Hi, everyone. I am Stef Reid,
0:01:29 > 0:01:32I am a three-time Paralympic medallist in athletics,
0:01:32 > 0:01:37and I am also a broadcaster, a speaker and a fashion model.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Hi, I'm Dan Greaves, British Paralympic discus thrower,
0:01:40 > 0:01:43collecting five Paralympic medals at five games,
0:01:43 > 0:01:46and I also like to bench press.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47So, Danny and team, hello.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49- Hello.- Hello.- Great to see you.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52And, Danny, I know this is not like your normal activities here.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54Are you prepped for this?
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Yeah. I mean, I've played the app.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01I won't tell you how I got on, but I've played the app!
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Eggheads, do you play your own app or not?
0:02:03 > 0:02:04I didn't know we had one!
0:02:04 > 0:02:06You are an app. Judith doesn't even know that.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09You broke the news to her. She doesn't even know she's an app.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Tell our Challengers here, are there gaps in your knowledge? Be honest.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- Of course.- Are there things in the world you don't know?
0:02:14 > 0:02:18- Judith?- There's absolutely nothing in the world I don't know.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21I know everything. The last person in the world who knew everything
0:02:21 > 0:02:23was supposed to be Christopher Wren.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25- Is that right?- Yeah. - He would have been an Egghead.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27- There's a fact.- Well, maybe Kevin -
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Kevin is known as the Grand Master, if you're new to the show -
0:02:30 > 0:02:32would be the modern Christopher Wren.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Oh, thank you very much.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37So far, no-one has asked me to design a cathedral.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- Good luck, Challengers.- Thank you.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41All the best. Every day there is £1,000 worth
0:02:41 > 0:02:44of cash up for grabs for our Challengers' chosen charity.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:02:46 > 0:02:48the prize money rolls over into the next show.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50So, Para-Rangers,
0:02:50 > 0:02:54I can tell you the recent celebrity teams have all come a cropper
0:02:54 > 0:02:55with these Eggheads.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57They have won the last seven games.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00That means there's £8,000 for you to win today, which is, in a way,
0:03:00 > 0:03:03very good news. Would you like to try?
0:03:03 > 0:03:05- MEGAN:- Hell, yeah.- Yes.- Great stuff.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Film & TV.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13One of you needs to go in against either Judith, Kevin, Pat,
0:03:13 > 0:03:15- Steve or Lisa. - I'll go for it if you want.
0:03:15 > 0:03:16Yeah!
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- Top man.- Be confident.- Who's this going to be?- Jonathan, yes.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23OK. Jonathan against any one of the five, Jonathan?
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Let's go for Kevin. Just take him on!
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Why not? What a great idea.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30Wish me luck. Kevin. Let's do it.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Start early, that's a very good idea.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34I like that. So Jonathan from the Para-Rangers
0:03:34 > 0:03:38is taking on Kevin from the Eggheads right at the start
0:03:38 > 0:03:40on Film & TV. And just to ensure there's no conferring,
0:03:40 > 0:03:43would you please take your positions in our legendary Question Room?
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Jonathan, your sporting history is really interesting cos you never
0:03:49 > 0:03:52really saw yourself as a Paralympian at all, did you?
0:03:52 > 0:03:54No, I didn't. It wasn't until I'd watched 2012,
0:03:54 > 0:03:56the London Paralympic Games,
0:03:56 > 0:04:00that I saw I could actually have competed as a high jumper.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04And I think my personal best at the time may have got, I think,
0:04:04 > 0:04:06third at London 2012.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08I was classified just after 2012, actually.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Was it thrilling in Rio?
0:04:10 > 0:04:12I know you jumped more than two metres.
0:04:12 > 0:04:13Coming back from injury, actually,
0:04:13 > 0:04:17to go out to Rio on the top stage and perform a season's best,
0:04:17 > 0:04:19I was quite happy with that.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22But it's given me the experience to go forward towards Tokyo.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Wonderful. Good luck against Kevin, Jonathan.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- Thank you!- Film & TV. Do you want to go first or second?
0:04:27 > 0:04:29I'll go first, please.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35OK, so Film & TV, Jonathan, against Kevin.
0:04:35 > 0:04:36Here is your question.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Which of these TV presenters was born first?
0:04:44 > 0:04:46I don't actually know who Ant McPartlin is.
0:04:46 > 0:04:50Erm... I know Davina McCall is fairly young in comparison, I think.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53You know what, I'm going to go Ant McPartlin.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Born first. I think you will know Ant.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57He's one half of Ant and Dec.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58Oh, no!
0:04:58 > 0:05:00JEREMY LAUGHS
0:05:00 > 0:05:03I think we had a question like this the other day, Eggheads.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Was it you, Judith, who went on who has got the most grey hair?
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Yeah. Phillip Schofield's got a lot of grey hair.
0:05:08 > 0:05:09Phillip Schofield is the right answer.
0:05:09 > 0:05:10He's got the most grey hair.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13That seems to be the way to answer this one.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16OK, your question, Kevin. In which part of the world is the 2015 film
0:05:16 > 0:05:19The Revenant set?
0:05:23 > 0:05:28Well, it's set on the frontier in what was to become the USA.
0:05:28 > 0:05:29It's North America.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31North America is quite right.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34OK, Jonathan, back to you. Don't worry.
0:05:34 > 0:05:39The TV comedy series Fresh Meat is set in what sort of institution?
0:05:45 > 0:05:47I believe this is university.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49You're quite right. It is university.
0:05:49 > 0:05:50Well done. Have you seen it?
0:05:50 > 0:05:53I haven't watched it, but I remember it coming out.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55That's good. It would be very easy to go wrong there.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Well done. Level with Kevin.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Kevin, over to you.
0:05:59 > 0:06:04Selasi Gbormittah found fame as a contestant on which TV show in 2016?
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Definitely not my sort of question.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13- I've... - HE SIGHS
0:06:13 > 0:06:16I've got a faint idea from somewhere that there was somebody with...
0:06:18 > 0:06:20..an African background, shall we say?
0:06:20 > 0:06:23I may be completely off beam here.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27Who was involved in the Great British Bake Off
0:06:27 > 0:06:29and may have had...
0:06:30 > 0:06:31..a distinctive name like that.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33It's all I've got to go on.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Lisa just blew you a kiss. Lisa?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Yes, Selasi got a long way into the Great British Bake Off.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41- He was my favourite. - Well done, Kevin.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42OK, Jonathan.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44- You've got to get this one right.- Yep.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain,"
0:06:48 > 0:06:49is a famous line from which film?
0:06:54 > 0:06:57I'm inclined to say it's not The Wizard Of Oz.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02I'm going with my gut here. I'm going to say Casablanca.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Now, I think your team-mates may know.
0:07:04 > 0:07:05Stef and Dan, do you know this?
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- We think it's... - The Wizard Of Oz.- ..Oz
0:07:08 > 0:07:09It's Wizard Of Oz.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Oh, my God!- It's the last scene.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Remind us, you've seen it recently, maybe?
0:07:14 > 0:07:15That last scene, is it?
0:07:15 > 0:07:18It's with the wizard, isn't it?
0:07:18 > 0:07:20- Well, he's not.- You find out he's not actually that,
0:07:20 > 0:07:21- you know, big and... - He's not up to much.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24The Wizard Of Oz is the answer, Jonathan.
0:07:24 > 0:07:25So Kevin has knocked you out.
0:07:25 > 0:07:26Kevin, you'll be in the final round.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29But it's early days. Come on, Challengers, you can do this.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Do return to us, we'll play Round Two.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35As it stands, the Para-Rangers have lost a brain from the final round.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38The Eggheads are still all sitting there.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Your next subject is History.
0:07:41 > 0:07:42Who would like this?
0:07:42 > 0:07:44THEY LAUGH
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Didn't one of our team members say history?
0:07:46 > 0:07:47No-one wants history?
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- Right, it's mine, there we go. - Go on. Are you sure?
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Yeah, I know naff all. But...let's go for it.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56Our cyclist against which Egghead?
0:07:56 > 0:07:59Who looks a little bit unsighted on world events?
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- STEF:- Who is not making eye contact? - That's a very good way.
0:08:02 > 0:08:03Steve!
0:08:03 > 0:08:05- LAUGHTER - Steve.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Steve it is.- Unless he's doing some reverse psychology.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14OK, Megan from the Para-Rangers against Steve from the Eggheads.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Please take your positions now.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Well, Megan, firstly, congratulations on Rio.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- Thank you.- The first gold, I think, at the Paralympic Games for us?
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Yeah, it was. It came as a bit of a shock, really.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30I didn't have a clue where I was going to place and I came first.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33- What can I say? - And remind us of the event?
0:08:33 > 0:08:35The event was the 3km pursuit in track.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39So basically, I go round in a circle, I chase the person
0:08:39 > 0:08:42in front of me, they're back... behind, and I go past them.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43And that's exactly how I did it.
0:08:43 > 0:08:47And we've noted your T-shirt - OCD, Obsessive Cycling Disorder.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49- Oh, yeah.- It's become your addiction and your life?
0:08:49 > 0:08:53Oh, very much so. Yeah, it's the biggest part of my life.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Here we go then. From the Para-Rangers,
0:08:55 > 0:08:58it's Megan, against Steve from the Eggheads.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01And would you like to go first or second on this round, Megan?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04Oh, I'll go first. Let's get it out the park.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11OK, here we go. History, Megan, and your first question.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13The Norman Conquest of Britain,
0:09:13 > 0:09:16led by William the Conqueror, took place in which year?
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Well, I'm sure my partner at home is probably kicking me straightaway
0:09:25 > 0:09:26cos I have no idea.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Numbers just don't stick out at me.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Other than 1066, the Battle of Hastings.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33So I'm just going to kind of go with that,
0:09:33 > 0:09:35but I have a feeling it's probably not.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Let's check with Steve. Steve?
0:09:37 > 0:09:38Yeah, it's good. That's right.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40OK, Megan, you're bang-on, well done.
0:09:40 > 0:09:431066...and all that.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46There's a book, isn't there, with that title?
0:09:46 > 0:09:50OK, Steve. Which of these historical empires was established first?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Yeah, I think that must be the Roman Empire, Jeremy.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59The Roman Empire is quite right.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Well done. Megan, 1-1, back to you.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06In Anglo-Saxon culture, what were barrows?
0:10:09 > 0:10:12- Barrows.- Barrows...
0:10:12 > 0:10:13I just think wheelbarrow.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Where does that fit in? I'm going to go into weapons.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21I like the idea of it just being weaponry, to be fair.
0:10:21 > 0:10:22OK, weapons is your answer.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24It's actually funeral mounds.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28OK. Steve, your question, to take the lead.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31In which year did the Cuban Missile Crisis take place?
0:10:36 > 0:10:40It was famously Kennedy v Khrushchev. It's 1962, Jeremy.
0:10:40 > 0:10:431962 is correct. So he's taken the lead.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46We're in slightly the same spot we were in the last round, Megan.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48- Bring it on. - JONATHAN:- Come on, Megan.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Come on. Your team are really backing you.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51Here we go. Take your time.
0:10:51 > 0:10:56The philosopher Aristotle was the tutor of which historical ruler?
0:11:01 > 0:11:03They all just sound amazing. What can I say?
0:11:05 > 0:11:06Alexander the Great.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- Good girl.- Alexander the Great...
0:11:08 > 0:11:10is the correct answer!
0:11:10 > 0:11:11I knew it, see!
0:11:11 > 0:11:14LAUGHING: Brilliant!
0:11:15 > 0:11:162-2. Let's remember this moment.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18You've drawn level with Steve.
0:11:18 > 0:11:19Steve can go wrong here.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Let's see what happens. History we're on.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23You can get in the final with this, Steve.
0:11:23 > 0:11:28Which of these battles took place in 1862 and has been described
0:11:28 > 0:11:30as the bloodiest day in American history?
0:11:36 > 0:11:37Yeah, I think...
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Kevin will know this. First Battle of Bull Run, alternative name,
0:11:41 > 0:11:43but it's Antietam.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Antietam, let's see, with Kevin. Kevin, is that the right answer?
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Antietam is the right answer, yes.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51It's not the same thing as First Bull Run,
0:11:51 > 0:11:53which was the year before,
0:11:53 > 0:11:55but there was a second battle at Bull Run which was very close
0:11:55 > 0:11:57to Antietam, it was within a couple of weeks.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00But Antietam, also known as Sharpsburg,
0:12:00 > 0:12:04was the bloodiest single day in American military history.
0:12:04 > 0:12:05The answer is Antietam.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08So we say well done, Steve, you got three out of three.
0:12:08 > 0:12:09Sorry, Megan, beaten by our Egghead.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12But two out of three right answers - really good.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14- Thank you.- Please return to us and we'll play round three.
0:12:16 > 0:12:20Right, the Para-Rangers have lost two brains from the final round.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22The Eggheads are still sitting there,
0:12:22 > 0:12:25now's probably the moment to turn it on.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26The next subject is Sport.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30- Greavesy!- I think that's good, isn't it?
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- OK!- Again on the end.
0:12:33 > 0:12:34And who would you like to take on?
0:12:34 > 0:12:37It obviously can't be Kevin or Steve.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39I'd like to face Judith, please.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Very good. So, Dan from the Para-Rangers,
0:12:41 > 0:12:43- I bet you're pleased about that. - I'm thrilled.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46- JONATHAN:- She's going to ruin you, mate!
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Please take your positions.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Well, your sport is discus, Dan.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56Yeah, it's very aptly named, isn't it?
0:12:56 > 0:12:59And what's been your proudest sporting moment, do you think?
0:12:59 > 0:13:03I think Paralympic gold in Athens 2004 is right up there.
0:13:03 > 0:13:04But also my silver in London.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07It's close to my heart, because it was in front of
0:13:07 > 0:13:10all my friends and family. So that'll be a lasting memory.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Brilliant stuff. So, we're going on to Sport now, Dan,
0:13:12 > 0:13:14which I know is a mixed blessing.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16In a way, on paper, it's your strongest subject,
0:13:16 > 0:13:18but sometimes that brings stress with it.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Good luck here, Dan, against the great Judith,
0:13:20 > 0:13:23who can be formidable. Dan, would you like to go first or second?
0:13:23 > 0:13:24I'll go first, please.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Here we go. John Terry has played over 700 matches
0:13:31 > 0:13:33for which London football club?
0:13:36 > 0:13:39Well, being a big football fan, I definitely know this.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43It's not Arsenal or Spurs, and that'll be Chelsea.
0:13:43 > 0:13:44Chelsea is the right answer.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- Come on, Dan! - Judith, this is your question.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Which of these sports was invented first?
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Oh, well, I know that golf is very, very old.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59I think it was invented in Scotland.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02So I imagine it's golf.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04And you imagine right, it is golf.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07OK, Dan, this is your question.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Which of these sportsmen retired from competition
0:14:09 > 0:14:12after breaking his neck in two places in 2000,
0:14:12 > 0:14:15before reversing his decision two years later?
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Ooh, erm...
0:14:23 > 0:14:26I don't know whether it's Lennox Lewis,
0:14:26 > 0:14:30I think he might have retired beforehand.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34And the only reason I could think of Nick Skelton is probably
0:14:34 > 0:14:36a jumping accident.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Martin Johnson I think retired after the...
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Oh, actually, no. It's Martin Johnson.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43I think he did retire,
0:14:43 > 0:14:47but then came back for the World Cup in 2002, that's my instinct.
0:14:48 > 0:14:49And your answer is?
0:14:49 > 0:14:53- Martin Johnson.- OK, let's see if your team-mates know here.
0:14:53 > 0:14:54Is it Martin?
0:14:54 > 0:14:57- I thought Nick Skelton. - We guessed Nick Skelton.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Yeah. You kind of referred to it in a way, it was...
0:15:00 > 0:15:03I think it was a horse-related accident, wasn't it?
0:15:03 > 0:15:06So it was Nick Skelton, who then competed in Rio.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- JONATHAN:- Yes. And won gold. - And won gold, exactly.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Nick Skelton is the answer, Dan.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Judith, your question.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16How many individual goalposts are on the field
0:15:16 > 0:15:19in a game of Australian rules football?
0:15:21 > 0:15:24Well, there's bound to be two lots of goals, aren't there?
0:15:24 > 0:15:29So, if it was two it'd be a pole at each end, which doesn't seem likely.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34Eight would be the same as ordinary football, wouldn't it?
0:15:34 > 0:15:36What would 12 look like?
0:15:38 > 0:15:40It would be six at each end.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Well, why should Australian football be so different?
0:15:45 > 0:15:46I'm going to say eight.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49I don't know how you got to that answer.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Eight is the right answer.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54Oh! That's infuriating, isn't it Dan?
0:15:54 > 0:15:57- Oh, yeah.- There's a certain - all respect to my friend here -
0:15:57 > 0:16:00a certain sporting deficit, you've just got to exploit it.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Get this right to stay in.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Before Adam Peaty in 2016, Dan,
0:16:06 > 0:16:11who was the last British man to win an Olympic gold medal in swimming?
0:16:17 > 0:16:20I can remember Duncan Goodhew
0:16:20 > 0:16:22winning a few medals in swimming, as I was a keen swimmer
0:16:22 > 0:16:26when I was younger. I don't know too much about David Wilkie,
0:16:26 > 0:16:31but I know that Adrian Moorhouse
0:16:31 > 0:16:34I think won a medal at a major championships,
0:16:34 > 0:16:37and is probably the strongest standout name
0:16:37 > 0:16:39at an Olympic Games before Adam Peaty.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41So my answer is Adrian Moorhouse.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Great quizzing, you're right.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45Adrian Moorhouse is correct.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49So, level, but Judith has this question in hand.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53Which British competitor won medals in both athletics and in cycling
0:16:53 > 0:16:56at the 2016 Paralympic Games?
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Oh, dear.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Both athletics and cycling.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08Um...
0:17:09 > 0:17:12I think it's Kadeena Cox.
0:17:12 > 0:17:13Let's check with our Challengers here.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- Yeah.- Sadly, yes.- Kadeena.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20"Sadly, yes," it is Kadeena Cox, you got three out of three.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22She is very good at that, Dan.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24She just... Tiny little inkling...
0:17:24 > 0:17:26I know, isn't she? Yeah.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29Just that second question.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31I was just thinking, I think you knew Nick Skelton as well.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34Dan, sorry, beaten by our Egghead. Judith will be in the final.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36So come back to us, we've got one more round to play.
0:17:39 > 0:17:40As it stands,
0:17:40 > 0:17:42the Para-Rangers have lost three brains from the final round.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45The Eggheads, rather annoyingly, haven't lost one yet.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47The next subject is Geography.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49PARA-RANGERS GROAN AND LAUGH
0:17:49 > 0:17:51So it's going to be Danny or Stef.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- Rock, paper, scissors?- Yeah, yeah!
0:17:54 > 0:17:56Go for it. One, two, three.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59- OK... MEGAN:- You're going! - Stone blunts scissors!
0:17:59 > 0:18:01- So I'm going, right? - Stef, you're going.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04- Good luck, Stef. - Brilliant. Choose an Egghead.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06You can have either Pat or Lisa.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09Pat looks so happy and eager!
0:18:09 > 0:18:10Pat looks quite nice.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Yeah, I feel like hanging out with Pat in the booth.
0:18:12 > 0:18:13- I'm going to go with Pat.- OK.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Stef from the Para-Rangers taking on Pat from the Eggheads.
0:18:16 > 0:18:17Our last round here.
0:18:17 > 0:18:22To ensure there is no conferring, please go to the Question Room.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25Stef, I thought you were probably the natural choice for Geography,
0:18:25 > 0:18:28cos you've lived all over, haven't you?
0:18:28 > 0:18:30See, now you're setting me up!
0:18:30 > 0:18:34I have. So, the short version is I was born in New Zealand
0:18:34 > 0:18:37to British parents, who emigrated to Canada.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40I then married a Canadian who was living in Dallas, Texas
0:18:40 > 0:18:43and then moved back to the UK in 2010.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46And you came back to the UK to compete and live and all of that?
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Yes, yeah. And so I was living and training in London
0:18:49 > 0:18:51ahead of London 2012.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54So, you're up against Pat, and it's Geography.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57I'm hoping we get a bit of New Zealand or Canada
0:18:57 > 0:18:59- or one of your many... - Please, yes!- ..your many countries.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Would you like to go first or second against Pat, Stef?
0:19:02 > 0:19:05I think I would like to go first.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11Stef, here we go. Geography, your first question.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14What is the approximate population of China?
0:19:19 > 0:19:23Erm, I think...
0:19:23 > 0:19:2514 and 140 million are just way too small.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27I know in India it's at least a billion,
0:19:27 > 0:19:30and China's bigger than India. Based on the results from the Paralympics
0:19:30 > 0:19:33and how well China always does and tops the table,
0:19:33 > 0:19:35I'm going to go with 1.4 billion.
0:19:35 > 0:19:371.4 billion is quite right.
0:19:37 > 0:19:41OK, Pat, your question. Which of these rivers is the longest?
0:19:44 > 0:19:48Well, the Nile is the longest of all rivers, so it's the Nile.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51The Nile is the longest of all, quite right.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53They just know these facts.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55The Nile is the longest of all.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57I try and remember, Stef, and he says it,
0:19:57 > 0:19:59and next week I'll have forgotten.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02OK, your question. What is the capital of Sicily?
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Erm...I've not been there.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14I feel like Naples is a city in Italy.
0:20:15 > 0:20:16I think I'm going to go with...
0:20:18 > 0:20:21- ..Cagliari. - Cagliari is not it.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23- Ugh!- It's Palermo.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25OK, we go back to you, Pat.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29The Vaal is a major river in which country?
0:20:29 > 0:20:31It's spelt V-A-A-L.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37Well, that's quite a German/Dutch sounding name,
0:20:37 > 0:20:41and it leads to the area of South Africa called the Transvaal,
0:20:41 > 0:20:44which is that area beyond the River Vaal.
0:20:44 > 0:20:45It's in South Africa.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47South Africa is correct.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49He's taken the lead.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52Got to get this one right to stay in,
0:20:52 > 0:20:56or Danny's going to be lonely in the final round!
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Come on, Stef, we're rooting for you here.
0:20:58 > 0:21:03Which geographical feature in Africa has a local name meaning
0:21:03 > 0:21:05"the smoke that thunders"?
0:21:11 > 0:21:14I mean, I've not really heard that, but, I mean,
0:21:14 > 0:21:16"the smoke that thunders"...
0:21:16 > 0:21:19I mean, I associate smoke with some sort of volcano,
0:21:19 > 0:21:21some sort of mountain...
0:21:21 > 0:21:26But then Victoria Falls, maybe as it comes down, it's the mist.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Obviously, no, people climb Mount Kilimanjaro,
0:21:28 > 0:21:30it can't be some sort of active volcano.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33I think I'm going to have to go with...
0:21:33 > 0:21:36And then I'm torn, the Sahara Desert, what if there's a sandstorm?
0:21:36 > 0:21:38That can kind of look like smoke.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41I think I'm going to go with Victoria Falls.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Victoria Falls is the correct answer.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46SHE EXHALES Well done!
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Pat, your question. You can take the round with this,
0:21:48 > 0:21:50although we're secretly hoping you don't.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53What is the official title of the country of San Marino?
0:22:03 > 0:22:07I don't think it's got either a prince or a duke.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09I think it dates back to around
0:22:09 > 0:22:11the turn of the millennium as a republic,
0:22:11 > 0:22:14so the Most Serene Republic of San Marino
0:22:14 > 0:22:17looks like the best option there.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19The Most Serene Republic of San Marino.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Eggheads, is he right?
0:22:21 > 0:22:23- Yeah.- You're right, Pat.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Three out of three.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27It means you've been beaten by our Egghead and have been knocked out,
0:22:27 > 0:22:30and it's going to be a lonely time in the final for Danny.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33But he can still do it, there's no question about that!
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Please return to your teams and we'll see what happens.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39So, this is what we have been playing towards,
0:22:39 > 0:22:42it is time for our final round, as always it's general knowledge.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed
0:22:45 > 0:22:47to take part in this round.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51So, Megan, Jonathan, Stef and Dan from the Para-Rangers, I'm so sorry,
0:22:51 > 0:22:53you've got to leave the studio.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Well, Danny, I know it wasn't supposed to be like this.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00I feel a little bit alone!
0:23:00 > 0:23:02You're used to adversity.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06You were a sports person, you had your accident, and you still are,
0:23:06 > 0:23:08and in fact a very, very successful one.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11I know you won 800 metres gold at Athens.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Was that your proudest moment?
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Probably, yeah. I mean, there's been a few.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17That was because it was the culmination
0:23:17 > 0:23:19of all the years in the sport.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21I've been in international athletics since '98,
0:23:21 > 0:23:24and I won my first Paralympic gold in 2004,
0:23:24 > 0:23:27I got the bronze four years before that in Sydney.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30But probably the proudest was when I was the flag bearer in 2008,
0:23:30 > 0:23:33cos to be nominated by your team and to lead your team out
0:23:33 > 0:23:35in the opening ceremony is probably
0:23:35 > 0:23:37the greatest honour you can ever have
0:23:37 > 0:23:40bestowed upon you, and that was probably my proudest moment.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Brilliant. Well, here we are with the very next thing.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Oh, this was the next thing on my list, yeah!
0:23:44 > 0:23:46JEREMY LAUGHS
0:23:46 > 0:23:49Good luck. You can do it, we've seen them, all five against one player,
0:23:49 > 0:23:51and then the single player takes them down.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55It's happened. You're now playing to win the Para-Rangers £8,000.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57Lisa, Steve, Pat, Kevin, Judith,
0:23:57 > 0:23:59you're playing for something that money can't buy,
0:23:59 > 0:24:02which is the Eggheads' reputation.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06This time they're all general knowledge.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10You may confer. Sorry, that doesn't help you, Danny.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13The question is - can your one brain defeat these five?
0:24:13 > 0:24:14I'm sure it's possible.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16Would you like to go first or second?
0:24:16 > 0:24:20Do you know what? Going first hasn't gone well for my team today,
0:24:20 > 0:24:22so, I'm probably going to kick myself,
0:24:22 > 0:24:24but I'm going to say go second.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31OK. So, Eggheads have the first question, and here we go.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35Which of these words is a name for a confused fight or scuffle?
0:24:41 > 0:24:44Sassafras is an American drink, isn't it?
0:24:44 > 0:24:45- Melee?- Melee.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Sounds good to me, kids.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50That's a melee, Jeremy.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Melee is right. OK, Danny, your question.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55What is the name of the self-made millionaire
0:24:55 > 0:24:58who adopts the title character in the stage musical Annie?
0:25:06 > 0:25:07I...
0:25:07 > 0:25:11Funnily enough, Annie is not a stage show I'd probably have watched.
0:25:12 > 0:25:17I'm going to take a massive guess and say Charles Foster Kane.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22Now, Charles Foster Kane I think might have been Citizen Kane.
0:25:22 > 0:25:23- Is that right, Eggheads?- Mm-hmm.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26- Who's Montgomery Burns? - From The Simpsons.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28From The Simpsons, I should know that.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30The answer is Daddy Warbucks.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Not one you've shown your kids yet?
0:25:32 > 0:25:35- Not yet, no. I'm going to! - I haven't either.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40Eggheads, to go two ahead,
0:25:40 > 0:25:43what was the nickname of the French singer Edith Piaf?
0:25:47 > 0:25:50- Little Sparrow. - Little Sparrow.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52- The Sparrow? - Yeah, Little Sparrow.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55She was the Little Sparrow.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57As we indeed call you, Lisa,
0:25:57 > 0:25:58with your singing skills.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Not-So-Little Sparrow, yeah.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03The Little Sparrow is right.
0:26:03 > 0:26:08Now, they've gone two ahead a bit too quickly for our comfort here.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10Danny, just get this one right to stay in.
0:26:10 > 0:26:15The Reichenbach Falls in Switzerland are the setting
0:26:15 > 0:26:19for a climactic battle featuring which fictional character?
0:26:25 > 0:26:29I think it's either Holmes or Bond and there was...
0:26:29 > 0:26:32It was quite a recent one, wasn't it,
0:26:32 > 0:26:36when he let someone go over the edge?
0:26:36 > 0:26:37I think...
0:26:39 > 0:26:41..I'm going to go Sherlock Holmes.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43This is a famous battle with...
0:26:43 > 0:26:44Is it Moriarty?
0:26:44 > 0:26:46- Yeah.- Sherlock Holmes is right.
0:26:46 > 0:26:47Nicely done, Danny,
0:26:47 > 0:26:50cos it would have been easy to go for Tarzan there.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Right, Eggheads, you can take it with this answer.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54I really hope you don't.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57Oops, I blurted out my own feelings!
0:26:57 > 0:26:58Here's your question.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Which of these is a common translation
0:27:00 > 0:27:03of the German word "Tannenbaum".
0:27:06 > 0:27:07Christmas tree.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09It's Christmas tree, isn't it?
0:27:09 > 0:27:11"O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum, how lovely are your branches."
0:27:11 > 0:27:16It's not really working for reindeer or Father Christmas, is it?
0:27:16 > 0:27:19"Baum" is the German word for "tree", it's a Christmas tree.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22If you've got this right, the contest is over.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24The correct answer is Christmas tree.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27We say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35I think the Annie one was tricky at the start.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37- I'm not an Annie man. - I think one or two
0:27:37 > 0:27:39of the other celeb teams have been down to a single person.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41It's very hard when you can't confer.
0:27:41 > 0:27:42But Danny, thank you so much.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45- Pleasure.- I hope you enjoyed it. - It was wonderful, yeah.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48It's lovely to stand up against you guys...
0:27:48 > 0:27:50- on my own!- With the firepower here,
0:27:50 > 0:27:52sometimes when they get something they can't get,
0:27:52 > 0:27:56and they're truffling around, is fascinating to watch.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Thank you for playing, Para-Rangers.
0:27:58 > 0:27:59- Lovely to see you!- Bye.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01Cheers for your help, guys!

0:28:03 > 0:28:06the Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them, most of the time.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09This winning streak against the celebrities continues.

0:28:11 > 0:28:13with the £8,000 for their charities.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16We'll roll that over, shall we, to our next celebrity show?
