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 > 0:00:26Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads,
0:00:26 > 0:00:30the show where a team of five quiz challengers pit their wits against
0:00:30 > 0:00:32possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:32 > 0:00:33Here they are, the Eggheads.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35How are you feeling? Energetic?
0:00:35 > 0:00:37- As always.- Yeah. - You're going to have to be
0:00:37 > 0:00:39against these challengers.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42Hoping to be crowned victors today are Ladies Who Lunge.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45Now, everyone on this team has either thrown, kicked,
0:00:45 > 0:00:48passed or batted their way to the top of their game,
0:00:48 > 0:00:49bagging Olympic medals,
0:00:49 > 0:00:53winning World Cups and lifting trophies along the way.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56But how will they fare against our quiz champions?
0:00:56 > 0:00:57Let's meet them.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59Hello, my name's Ebony-Jewel Rainford-Brent.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01I'm a former England cricketer
0:01:01 > 0:01:03and now, more likely, you'll hear me on
0:01:03 > 0:01:05BBC Test Match Special as a commentator.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07My name is Maggie Alphonsi.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11I'm a sports commentator and former rugby international player.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15I was part of the team that won the Women's Rugby World Cup in 2014.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19Hi, I'm Catherine Spencer, former England Women's Rugby captain.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22I retired from international sport about five years ago
0:01:22 > 0:01:26and I now run my own business inspiring female leaders.
0:01:26 > 0:01:27Hi, I'm Sarah Stevenson.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30I'm a multiple world tae kwon do champion
0:01:30 > 0:01:33and I won the first-ever Olympic medal for tae kwon do in 2008.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Hi, I'm Goldie Sayers,
0:01:35 > 0:01:38a three-time Olympian and British record-holder for the javelin.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Ebony-Jewel and team, hello.
0:01:40 > 0:01:41- ALL:- Hello.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Welcome. I know it's not the first time for some of you.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Ebony-Jewel, are you captaining this outfit here?
0:01:47 > 0:01:48Yeah. We're bonded.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51We're a team now that are ready to fire.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53OK. And when you go in against the Eggs,
0:01:53 > 0:01:57do you need a strategy or is best to just do it on instinct?
0:01:57 > 0:01:59I think we're all quite competitive, aren't we?
0:01:59 > 0:02:01I think we're ready to take them down, to be honest.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03That edge is coming out of all of us.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06I feel... Already I feel a sense of competition, Maggie.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09There's only first place and then after that it's nowhere, isn't it?
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Definitely. Look, we are focused.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13I feel very focused.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15I've been on here before with Catherine Spencer.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- We want our revenge.- What have you said to your team-mates who haven't
0:02:18 > 0:02:21been on Eggheads before about just what it feels like
0:02:21 > 0:02:22to go in that booth?
0:02:22 > 0:02:25- We haven't told them anything. - We thought it was best that way.
0:02:25 > 0:02:26LAUGHTER
0:02:26 > 0:02:28That's the key thing. And just enjoy it.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30- That's the main thing. - And I'm assuming, Catherine,
0:02:30 > 0:02:33that you all want to do Sport, is that right?
0:02:33 > 0:02:35Cos sport is your thing. Or maybe I'm wrong.
0:02:35 > 0:02:36Well, that is true.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40There's a certain expectation if we go and take on the Sport round.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Yeah, I think we'd all feel comfortable with that,
0:02:42 > 0:02:45but we'll see. We'll see who's in the zone most
0:02:45 > 0:02:47if Sport comes up. We don't know, do we?
0:02:47 > 0:02:48Sarah, how's your quizzing?
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Not the best but, you know,
0:02:50 > 0:02:52I am competitive so I do want to win for the team.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55- We have bonded quite well.- Yeah.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58So, yeah, I hope the competitiveness will help the quizzing.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01A lot of it, it seems to be, is just to do with recall.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04All the answers are in there somewhere, Sarah.
0:03:04 > 0:03:05How are you when you just say,
0:03:05 > 0:03:09"I'm going to remember something I was last told ten years ago"?
0:03:09 > 0:03:12- No, I'll do it. Yeah. - Good.- I'll be fine, yeah.
0:03:12 > 0:03:13I'm ready, yeah.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Goldie, any subject outside Sport that you're looking for?
0:03:16 > 0:03:18Outside Sport? Er...
0:03:18 > 0:03:20LAUGHTER
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Maybe Music? Maybe Geography?
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Possibly. History is not my strong point,
0:03:26 > 0:03:28but I think it might be more of a strategy thing.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30We've got a psychology degree in Maggie here,
0:03:30 > 0:03:35so she might be able to strategise and psych out our opposition.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38That's a very good point, cos they can be put off, Maggie,
0:03:38 > 0:03:40they can be put off by confidence.
0:03:40 > 0:03:41True.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- Fake till you make it. - That's right, fake it to make it.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46I like that. They do that the whole time.
0:03:46 > 0:03:47LAUGHTER
0:03:47 > 0:03:51Good luck, Challengers. Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for
0:03:51 > 0:03:54grabs for our Challengers' chosen charity.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:03:56 > 0:03:58the prize money rolls over to our next celebrity show.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00So, Ladies Who Lunge,
0:04:00 > 0:04:03I can tell you the Eggheads have won the last ten
0:04:03 > 0:04:05against the celebrities. They're doing really well.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08So it means there's an £11,000 jackpot to win today.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10- Would you like to try? - Yes.- Of course.- Definitely.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11I thought as much.
0:04:11 > 0:04:15And the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17So you can take on either Judith, Kevin, Pat,
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Barry or Steve at the end in pink.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22I would love to do this.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25- Music is my thing. - OK. Passion is good.
0:04:25 > 0:04:26I've got a number one single.
0:04:26 > 0:04:30- I think I can do this. Let's do this.- OK.
0:04:30 > 0:04:34- It's got Maggie's name all over it. - OK, Maggie, against which Egghead?
0:04:34 > 0:04:35Any one you like.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Well, the last time I was on here,
0:04:37 > 0:04:40I was up against Kevin and I'd love to take him on again.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Good. That's great. I can't remember what happened last time.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Let's not even go there.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Maggie from Ladies Who Lunge taking on Kevin from the Eggheads,
0:04:49 > 0:04:51known as the Grand Master on Music.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55Get him out and that will be a really good moment, starting moment,
0:04:55 > 0:04:57for your team. Just to ensure there is no conferring,
0:04:57 > 0:04:59would you please now take your positions
0:04:59 > 0:05:00in the famous Question Room?
0:05:02 > 0:05:04So, before we get to quizzing, Maggie,
0:05:04 > 0:05:07you represented your country 74 times?
0:05:07 > 0:05:08That's correct, yeah,
0:05:08 > 0:05:11and we were fortunate enough to win a World Cup in that process.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13I'm sure fortune was not a part of it.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- What was your nickname, Maggie the Machine?- That is correct, yes,
0:05:18 > 0:05:21and I'm hoping that it will continue with that nickname for a bit longer,
0:05:21 > 0:05:23even though I'm not playing any more.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26So in terms of going against Kevin, we can use the same force.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29- It's not a problem.- Definitely.
0:05:29 > 0:05:30Just charge at him.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Good luck in this round, Maggie. Music is the subject.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Would you like to go first or second?
0:05:36 > 0:05:37I would like to go first, please.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45And here we go. Who was the winner of X Factor in 2016?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Well, I'm a big X Factor fan,
0:05:52 > 0:05:55so I know it wasn't Leon Jackson.
0:05:57 > 0:05:58But Matt Cardle,
0:05:58 > 0:06:03I know he won it a few years back and is now doing lots of musicals,
0:06:03 > 0:06:07so the answer I'm going to go with is Matt Terry.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10Brilliant. You've got it. Matt Terry is the answer.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13And when you played Kevin, was it 2007?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15- That's correct.- And we had an Entertainment round.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Did you get the first question right?
0:06:17 > 0:06:19I think I got the first question wrong,
0:06:19 > 0:06:21and then I got the second question...
0:06:21 > 0:06:23erm, wrong, which was a Music question.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26OK. So we are already ahead of 2007.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29- It's an improvement.- Started well.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Kevin, your question.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35What do the letters MOR stand for in relation to a certain style of commercial music?
0:06:41 > 0:06:44I like the other two, the other two choices there,
0:06:44 > 0:06:47which have the whiff of being made up about them,
0:06:47 > 0:06:49but I think this is middle of the road.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Middle of the road is quite right. Well done, one each.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Maggie, back to you. Hold position.
0:06:56 > 0:07:02"Tale as old as time" is the opening line from which song from a Disney musical?
0:07:07 > 0:07:11OK, I love The Lion King
0:07:11 > 0:07:15and I don't think it's in The Circle Of Life.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Under The Sea, oh, that's...
0:07:18 > 0:07:20It doesn't sound like it will be in that one,
0:07:20 > 0:07:23so I'm going to go with Beauty And The Beast.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26You're definitely doing better than last time.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29You're right. Well done. Beauty And The Beast it is.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33Now, we just need Kevin to be taken out by a flanker.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35Oh, dear.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Which English singer, Kevin,
0:07:38 > 0:07:41has won more Brit Awards than any other artist?
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Well, the Brit awards go back to...
0:07:49 > 0:07:51They go back a bit, actually.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55More Brit Awards than any other singer...
0:07:55 > 0:07:57I wouldn't have thought it was Ed Sheeran,
0:07:57 > 0:07:59because he's only come along relatively...
0:07:59 > 0:08:04I mean, he's won a few, but he's only come along relatively recently,
0:08:04 > 0:08:06so it's between the other two, I think.
0:08:07 > 0:08:12When the choices came up, my instinct was Robbie Williams,
0:08:12 > 0:08:19but... I mean, Sting has obviously been around for...quite a while.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23I'll stick with my instinct and go for Robbie Williams,
0:08:23 > 0:08:24but it could very easily be Sting.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28You were so nearly wrong, and that would have helped Maggie so much.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30- Robbie Williams is right. - Sorry, Maggie.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34Don't apologise. That's the way they roll, I'm afraid.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35OK, Maggie, your third question.
0:08:35 > 0:08:40On the 27th of January 2006, all the church bells in which city
0:08:40 > 0:08:45were rung simultaneously to honour the 250th anniversary
0:08:45 > 0:08:48of the birth of the composer Mozart?
0:08:48 > 0:08:49Which city?
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Right. This is a difficult one.
0:08:55 > 0:09:00To be honest, I don't have a strong confident answer with this one.
0:09:01 > 0:09:08The only one that's jumping out to me at the moment is Munich.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11Munich is your answer. Let's see if the Challengers know.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13- Do you know? - I would have said Salzburg.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14I think I would've said Salzburg as well.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Because Salzburg is Austria.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Was he German? Was he Austrian? Kevin?- Austrian, yeah.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22He was born in Salzburg.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Salzburg is the answer, Maggie.
0:09:24 > 0:09:29Sorry. Yeah, 2006, 250th anniversary of the birth of the composer Mozart.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31So it gives Kevin a little chance here.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34The hardest working man in show business
0:09:34 > 0:09:38was one of the nicknames of which American singer
0:09:38 > 0:09:41born in South Carolina in 1933?
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Yeah.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Well, I think he had a lot of nicknames
0:09:51 > 0:09:54and I think it's James Brown.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56If you're right, you've knocked out Maggie.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58And you'll have to come back again, Maggie,
0:09:58 > 0:09:59- if that's happened.- Definitely.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02James Brown is the right answer. Kevin, you're through to the final.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04Oh, drat!
0:10:04 > 0:10:07Maggie, you're knocked out, but it is early days.
0:10:07 > 0:10:12Return to us, both of you, and we'll see what happens in the next round.
0:10:12 > 0:10:13OK, well, that was painful,
0:10:13 > 0:10:15cos Ladies Who Lunge have lost their open-side flanker
0:10:15 > 0:10:18and a crucial member of the team.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Ebony, any change of formation now?
0:10:20 > 0:10:22No, we're still going to wing it.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Win, not wing!
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Exactly.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29We're confident. We were pleased with Maggie's performance.
0:10:29 > 0:10:30She did a very good job.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33We're proud of you. She's given us a bit of motivation, I think.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36Yep. And complete composure in the booth as well,
0:10:36 > 0:10:39which shows you can keep focused in there.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43So the Challengers have lost one and the Eggheads are still all there,
0:10:43 > 0:10:45and now the subject for you is Sport.
0:10:45 > 0:10:46Ohhh!
0:10:46 > 0:10:50- Is this good?- Goldie, this has got your name on it, hasn't it?
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Well, it would be my favourite topic for sure.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56So I'd like to think I could do this.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00- We're confident in you. - OK. Happy with that.- OK, Goldie,
0:11:00 > 0:11:02against which Egghead? Obviously it can't be Kevin.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05Actually, Pat tells me he's a former javelin thrower,
0:11:05 > 0:11:07so I think I'm going to take on the javelin thrower.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09- Is that right?- Careless talk!
0:11:09 > 0:11:10LAUGHTER
0:11:10 > 0:11:13You've got something out of him I've never managed to find out.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17Goldie from Ladies Who Lunge versus the newly discovered javelin thrower
0:11:17 > 0:11:19on the Eggheads team. Who knew?
0:11:19 > 0:11:23To ensure there no conferring, please take your positions.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27So, Pat, you've emerged as a javelin thrower?
0:11:27 > 0:11:29I've emerged as somebody who, as a little boy,
0:11:29 > 0:11:31had a great difficulty throwing the javelin.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33It's not quite the same thing.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35But you did the javelin at school sports day, did you?
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Well, my sister was an accomplished sprinter
0:11:38 > 0:11:41so I found myself on training tracks
0:11:41 > 0:11:43at athletics meetings with nothing to do,
0:11:43 > 0:11:45so I tried almost everything to fill the time
0:11:45 > 0:11:50and I just remembered how difficult and unnatural the javelin is.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53- Yeah.- Because the other throwing items are, I think,
0:11:53 > 0:11:56as you would expect, they would be from watching on television,
0:11:56 > 0:11:59but throwing the javelin a long way is quite difficult.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02So, that does lead us to ask you, Goldie,
0:12:02 > 0:12:04why you chose that as your sport.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08I could always throw a ball a long way, as I'm sure Ebony can, too,
0:12:08 > 0:12:09but I'd just loved it.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12I love the feel of it. It's the feeling, I think,
0:12:12 > 0:12:16and you're trying to make throwing a javelin as effortless as possible
0:12:16 > 0:12:20and, effectively, you're trying to create a bow for an arrow,
0:12:20 > 0:12:22whereas the pole vault is the opposite end -
0:12:22 > 0:12:26you're the arrow and the pole is the bow. I just love it.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29I love the feeling of throwing a long throw.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31And you are a three-time Olympian, British record-holder,
0:12:31 > 0:12:3311-time UK champion,
0:12:33 > 0:12:38and what lessons have you learned about it over all those events?
0:12:38 > 0:12:43It's the one, I think it's the athletic event where you can't try.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46If you try and throw far, that's where it all goes wrong,
0:12:46 > 0:12:49so you have to, again,
0:12:49 > 0:12:53make it as effortless as possible and use your body in such a way
0:12:53 > 0:12:55to propel this implement.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58And in all the other things in life, like, you know,
0:12:58 > 0:13:01finding a great coach and the technique of the event
0:13:01 > 0:13:02is the most important thing
0:13:02 > 0:13:06and then you build the speed, power, strength after that.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08All right. Here we are. Sport is the topic.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10And, Goldie, do you want to go first or second?
0:13:10 > 0:13:11I think I'm going to go first.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Here we go. In which year did the boxer Lennox Lewis
0:13:19 > 0:13:22announce his retirement? Goldie, was it...?
0:13:26 > 0:13:30Oh, this is tricky. I'm trying to remember when he was world champion.
0:13:31 > 0:13:36I would say that was in the '90s, cos I remember it.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42However, 2004 doesn't seem very long ago.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43The Athens Olympics, for me,
0:13:43 > 0:13:46seems like yesterday even though that's over, you know,
0:13:46 > 0:13:48well over a decade ago. Erm...
0:13:50 > 0:13:53My gut is saying 2004.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57I'm going to go with 2004.
0:13:57 > 0:13:592004 is your answer.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01Let's see if Pat knows. Pat?
0:14:01 > 0:14:03I'm not sure which way I'd go.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Between '94 and 2004.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Possibly 2004.
0:14:07 > 0:14:102004 is the correct answer, Goldie.
0:14:10 > 0:14:11Well done.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Pat, your question.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16Which of these sports stadiums has the largest capacity?
0:14:21 > 0:14:26I think, by quite a distance, I think it's Wembley Stadium.
0:14:26 > 0:14:31I think it can seat just over 80,000.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Wembley Stadium is right.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35OK, Goldie, your second question.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38How many Olympic gold medals has Andy Murray won?
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Well, he's definitely won two.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48However I'm just trying to remember
0:14:48 > 0:14:53if he won the doubles with his brother.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56I didn't make the team for Rio, so I wasn't there.
0:15:00 > 0:15:01This is tough. Erm...
0:15:02 > 0:15:05It's whether it's a doubles gold as well.
0:15:07 > 0:15:11I'm thinking he didn't win gold in the doubles.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14I'm going to go for two, but I may well kick myself!
0:15:15 > 0:15:18OK, two is your answer. Let's see if the Challengers know.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21- What do you think, Ebony and team? - Yeah. We're saying two.
0:15:21 > 0:15:22I think it's two.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Yeah? So we have London 2012, the famous one.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28- And then 2016?- Yeah.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Rio, he's won gold.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34And his brother has done it with somebody else, so two.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Is that right, Eggs? He won gold in 2016?
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Yes, yes. It's the two singles titles, yes.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Simple as that, yeah. You've got it absolutely right, Goldie.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43Two singles titles at the Olympics.
0:15:43 > 0:15:452012, 2016.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47The answer is two. Well done.
0:15:47 > 0:15:51Pat, who is the only footballer to score a goal in the League Cup final,
0:15:51 > 0:15:55the FA Cup final, the UEFA Cup final and the Champions League final?
0:15:59 > 0:16:00Hmm...
0:16:00 > 0:16:04There are an endless number of these questions about players
0:16:04 > 0:16:06who've done particular combinations.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10I have a first preference for Steven Gerrard,
0:16:10 > 0:16:13but I better just give a little thought to the other two.
0:16:13 > 0:16:17Yes, I think I have a memory of it being Steven Gerrard.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Steven Gerrard is the right answer.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Ah, that's annoying.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26That is annoying. OK. Get this right, Goldie.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Let's get him under some pressure. See if we can ease out an Egghead.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33Which England cricketer is nicknamed The Beard That's Feared?
0:16:39 > 0:16:44Ebony, I need to feel your vibes this side of the fence.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46OK. Process of elimination.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50So, my gut is saying Moeen Ali cos he has a beard.
0:16:50 > 0:16:55Adil Rashid is very new on the scene
0:16:55 > 0:16:57and is about 12, so I don't think has a beard.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59LAUGHTER
0:16:59 > 0:17:04Er... Zafar Ansari, I'm not as familiar with.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Erm...
0:17:07 > 0:17:12I'm going to go with Moeen Ali because I know most about him,
0:17:12 > 0:17:14but only because he's an England player.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18OK, so down the middle again. Is it right? Let's check with Ebony.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Do you know? Interestingly, I haven't heard the nickname.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23It's definitely not Zafar, cos he's young, fresh-faced.
0:17:23 > 0:17:30Adil Rashid does have a beard, but it's quite small and a bit more...
0:17:30 > 0:17:33- more like Pat's, a little bit more than Pat's.- Yeah. Stubbly.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37Moeen has got a long beard, so I think she's going
0:17:37 > 0:17:40- for the right thought process. - We like the logic, Goldie,
0:17:40 > 0:17:42cos I think, basically, Ebony says that Moeen's got
0:17:42 > 0:17:45- the most impressive beard.- Yeah.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47He is the right answer. Well done.
0:17:47 > 0:17:48Moeen Ali. Well done.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Quizzing well, team.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53Three out of three. Pat under pressure.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Pat, if you get this wrong, you are out.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58Sandy Lyle was the first British golfer
0:17:58 > 0:18:00to win which major tournament?
0:18:04 > 0:18:07I think he sealed the deal with a fairway bunker shot
0:18:07 > 0:18:10on the 18th to win the Masters.
0:18:10 > 0:18:11The Masters is correct.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14So we go to Sudden Death.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Goldie, it gets a little bit harder.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19I don't give you alternative options.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21OK, here is your question.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Which football team in League One for the 2016-17 season
0:18:24 > 0:18:27plays home matches at Highbury Stadium
0:18:27 > 0:18:32in their strip of red shirts with white sleeves and white shorts?
0:18:32 > 0:18:35So, obviously not Arsenal, cos they're not League One.
0:18:37 > 0:18:38Football is not my...
0:18:40 > 0:18:45..specialist Sport topic, so League One teams,
0:18:45 > 0:18:49so now... The Championship is obviously the Championship,
0:18:49 > 0:18:53League One is the old... what used to be Third Division.
0:18:55 > 0:18:56I think. Erm...
0:18:58 > 0:19:00I don't know. I need to guess a team,
0:19:00 > 0:19:03but I'm struggling to come up with a League One team name even.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07Red associated with an area...
0:19:12 > 0:19:15- Nottingham Forest? - No, it's not Nottingham Forest.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18- Let's ask Pat.- I think it's a pretty tough one to guess.
0:19:18 > 0:19:19I think it's Fleetwood Town.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Fleetwood Town is right.
0:19:21 > 0:19:22That's a hard question.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Theirs supporters are known as the Cod Army.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28So, Pat, you can take the round with this Sudden Death question.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Which heavyweight British boxer
0:19:30 > 0:19:34was the only man to win three Lonsdale Belts outright?
0:19:34 > 0:19:37I have a thought in my head for Henry Cooper,
0:19:37 > 0:19:42but I'd better...think. Erm...
0:19:42 > 0:19:47Well, Cooper and Lewis are certainly two of the very successful heavyweights.
0:19:47 > 0:19:48Bruno...
0:19:49 > 0:19:51No. I think it's Henry Cooper.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53He won these by winning three British title fights,
0:19:53 > 0:19:55and the answer is Henry Cooper.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Well done, Pat.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00Sorry, Goldie. Knocked out on Sudden Death by our Egghead.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02You took him quite a distance, though.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Please return to us and we'll play round three.
0:20:06 > 0:20:07So, as it stands, Ladies Who Lunge
0:20:07 > 0:20:09have lost two brains from the final round.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11They're battling hard,
0:20:11 > 0:20:13but the Eggheads have still not lost a brain.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Maybe now is the moment.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18The next subject for you is Film & TV.
0:20:18 > 0:20:19Oooh!
0:20:19 > 0:20:22Who wants this? This is it! LAUGHTER
0:20:22 > 0:20:24It's the only one that I probably can do.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Sarah.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29OK. Our tae kwon do champion against which Egghead?
0:20:29 > 0:20:31- Judith?- Judith looks quietly confident.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33I'm quite scared of Judith, to be honest!
0:20:33 > 0:20:34LAUGHTER
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Go on, then, Sarah. Barry has got a good shirt.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38He's got a very good shirt.
0:20:39 > 0:20:40Who's least confident on that?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43I think that's how we have to go through.
0:20:43 > 0:20:44What is your gut saying?
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Who can be a psychologist to help us out here, Maggie?
0:20:46 > 0:20:50- Barry's looking a bit nervous. - Who's quaking?
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Barry looks very happy when he's nervous.
0:20:52 > 0:20:53He does, he looks happy when he's nervous!
0:20:53 > 0:20:56- I'm always happy! - OK, we'll go with Barry.
0:20:56 > 0:21:00- Go for it.- You might have just sniffed out a weakness there.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Sarah, from Ladies Who Lunge, takes on Barry from the Eggheads.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06I know you'll be delighted to go into the booth, Barry.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14Sarah, you are the most successful GB tae kwon do champion in history.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18I used to think so, I'm not too sure if I am now.
0:21:18 > 0:21:23You know, we did so well in Rio with Jade winning double gold,
0:21:23 > 0:21:27Olympic gold medal, and Lutalo and Bianca doing so well.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30I'd say I have a lot of world and European medals
0:21:30 > 0:21:31and an Olympic medal,
0:21:31 > 0:21:34so I don't know if I'm the most successful any more, sadly.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36Well, that's very modest of you.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38I mean, the actual record is amazing,
0:21:38 > 0:21:41but it's funny, isn't? Because that's a sport that's not
0:21:41 > 0:21:44so well known to people, so I'm presuming a lot of time
0:21:44 > 0:21:47- you have to spend your time explaining what you do.- Yes.
0:21:47 > 0:21:52Not as much now, you know, ever since we got the medal in Beijing,
0:21:52 > 0:21:56it kind of propelled tae kwon do a little bit further into the front of
0:21:56 > 0:21:59people's minds, like, it isn't judo or karate,
0:21:59 > 0:22:01it is a completely different sport,
0:22:01 > 0:22:04but you still do get, now and then, people saying,
0:22:04 > 0:22:06"Are you the judo girl or the karate girl?"
0:22:06 > 0:22:08and I'm like, "No. It's tae kwon do."
0:22:08 > 0:22:11What was it, actually, that led you into tae kwon do in the first place?
0:22:11 > 0:22:15My brother did it and when I was old enough to join in,
0:22:15 > 0:22:16I just joined in.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19I kind of think it was a bit of a baby-sitting service, maybe, at first,
0:22:19 > 0:22:22or just to get rid of me and my brother for a few hours!
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Barry, do you follow tae kwon do?
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Actually, I do. I love watching it.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28I think it's very skilful and very graceful.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31It's almost balletic in its movement.
0:22:31 > 0:22:36Yeah, it's the way that the kicks almost put you in a splits position,
0:22:36 > 0:22:40- Sarah, don't they, cos they're so high?- Yeah.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42I'd like to say I can still do that,
0:22:42 > 0:22:46but I'd probably end up in A&E now if I tried to do something!
0:22:46 > 0:22:49But, yeah, you've got to be really flexible for tae kwon do
0:22:49 > 0:22:51and a lot of stretching is involved.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54OK, good luck against Barry here on Film & TV.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Sarah, would you like to go first or second?
0:22:56 > 0:22:58I think I'll go second, for a change.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06OK, so we start with Barry on Film & TV. Here it is, Barry.
0:23:06 > 0:23:10Michael J Fox starred in how many Back To The Future films?
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Just trying to see how many I can remember.
0:23:17 > 0:23:22I can only remember three, so that's my answer. Three.
0:23:22 > 0:23:23- Three is right.- Oh!
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Sarah.
0:23:25 > 0:23:31In 2007, Kaley Cuoco took on the role of the aspiring actress Penny
0:23:31 > 0:23:33in which US TV sitcom?
0:23:39 > 0:23:41Oh...
0:23:41 > 0:23:42I don't know that name...
0:23:44 > 0:23:48..but I have watched a couple of those programmes.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54Can you just repeat the question again, for the year?
0:23:54 > 0:24:00In 2007, Kaley Cuoco took on the role of the aspiring actress Penny
0:24:00 > 0:24:02in which US TV sitcom?
0:24:02 > 0:24:05OK. So it was quite a long time ago,
0:24:05 > 0:24:08so I don't think it's The Big Bang Theory.
0:24:08 > 0:24:09I don't think that's...
0:24:12 > 0:24:13..that old.
0:24:15 > 0:24:16The King Of Queens...
0:24:18 > 0:24:20..for some reason I think that might be a little bit older.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23So...
0:24:26 > 0:24:28..just as a process of elimination
0:24:28 > 0:24:31I'm going to go with How I Met Your Mother.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35- OK, let's see if your team-mates know. Do you know?- Yeah.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37I watch this programme quite a lot
0:24:37 > 0:24:40and I think it's The Big Bang Theory.
0:24:40 > 0:24:41Yeah.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44Funnily enough, I've suddenly got into this recently.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47It's very good. Which series are you on?
0:24:47 > 0:24:48I can't tell you that,
0:24:48 > 0:24:51cos that would show that I'm very much an addict.
0:24:51 > 0:24:52I'm still on series one,
0:24:52 > 0:24:55watching with my 12-year-old, who's told me I've got to watch it,
0:24:55 > 0:24:57and she appears and she's got the flat across the hall
0:24:57 > 0:24:59and they all fall in love with her.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03Penny is in The Big Bang Theory, Sarah.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05OK, Barry. You must watch Big Bang Theory, Barry?
0:25:05 > 0:25:08It's my all-time favourite show. And I think I must say that,
0:25:08 > 0:25:11amongst the wider quizzing community,
0:25:11 > 0:25:14there are certainly Sheldons, Howards and Leonards there!
0:25:14 > 0:25:15LAUGHTER
0:25:15 > 0:25:17OK. Here is your question, Barry.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21Which actor played Egg in This Life and Simon Casey in Teachers?
0:25:26 > 0:25:27Oh, Gosh.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32I remember him in This Life - I can't remember the Teachers one -
0:25:32 > 0:25:34but I can't remember who played him.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38I'm going to rule out Steve John Shepherd...
0:25:39 > 0:25:42..but I cannot decide between the other two.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45Jack Davenport, Andrew Lincoln.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49I'm really not sure on this. I'm going to go for Andrew Lincoln.
0:25:50 > 0:25:51Andrew Lincoln is correct.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55So Barry's got two, Sarah,
0:25:55 > 0:25:56cos you let him go first,
0:25:56 > 0:25:58so you need to get this one right to stay in.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Don't worry, we can do this.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Which actress directed the 2014 film Unbroken?
0:26:05 > 0:26:06Which actress?
0:26:11 > 0:26:13I haven't seen the film, but I think...
0:26:16 > 0:26:17..I know who it is.
0:26:20 > 0:26:24My gut instinct is telling me that it's Angelina Jolie.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28She's a woman of many talents.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33I don't recall the other two directing any films.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39And I'm sure the film was based on a true story.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41I can't remember exactly what it is,
0:26:41 > 0:26:43but I'm going to go with Angelina Jolie.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45Angelina Jolie is the right answer.
0:26:45 > 0:26:46Well done. Sarah. Good stuff.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Still in there. So 2-1 to Barry.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51Barry, you can take it with this question.
0:26:51 > 0:26:55Which Oscar-winning Hollywood actor has been quoted as saying,
0:26:55 > 0:26:57"Never confuse the size of your pay cheque
0:26:57 > 0:26:59"with the size of your talent"?
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Oh. Goodness me. It could be any of them.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10"Never confuse the size of your pay cheque
0:27:10 > 0:27:12"with the size of your talent."
0:27:14 > 0:27:17I don't know, but it sounds to me the sort of thing that Brando
0:27:17 > 0:27:19would say, so I shall go for Marlon Brando.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Marlon Brando is the right answer.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25He's just taken a stab at that and got it right.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27Sarah, I'm sorry.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31You've been beaten by our Egghead and will not be in the final round.
0:27:31 > 0:27:32One more round to go before the final.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Please rejoin your teams. We'll play it.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38OK, it's difficult for Ladies Who Lunge at the moment,
0:27:38 > 0:27:41but there's still a chance of a comeback,
0:27:41 > 0:27:42and I know you all believe in that.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44You've lost three brains from the final round.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46The Eggheads are all still sitting there,
0:27:46 > 0:27:49looking a little bit too pleased with themselves, I think.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51- It's time.- It's time.
0:27:51 > 0:27:56- We're not confident, but we're going to put our shoulders back.- OK.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Fake it till you make it and all that.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00Yeah, love it. The next subject is Geography.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Oh, dear!
0:28:02 > 0:28:04It's going to be Ebony or Catherine.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07- Who wants this? - It's between you two.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09I don't mind having a go.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11Are you confident on General Knowledge or...?
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Who prefers to be here for the General Knowledge?
0:28:13 > 0:28:15- Ebony, you've travelled a lot. - Yeah, that's true.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18- I don't mind giving it a stab. - I mean, we've all travelled a lot,
0:28:18 > 0:28:20but you're probably more so, worldwide.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22Your brother is a geography teacher, isn't he?
0:28:22 > 0:28:25My brother is a geography teacher! He is my twin brother.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Perhaps I can tune in some telepathic thing.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30I don't mind doing geography.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32- Who's it going to be? - It's going to be me.
0:28:32 > 0:28:36Catherine. OK. So rugby over cricket on this one occasion.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38And against which Egghead?
0:28:38 > 0:28:41You can have either of the ones on the end, so Steve or Judith?
0:28:41 > 0:28:42Judith. What do we think?
0:28:42 > 0:28:46I know you've been here before, to Eggheads, so this is time for revenge now.
0:28:46 > 0:28:47Steve looks quietly confident.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50I also think Judith is very good at General Knowledge at the end.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52- Yeah.- I think they're both going to be quite good.
0:28:52 > 0:28:56- Judith is trying to psych you out. - She is, isn't she?
0:28:56 > 0:28:59- Maybe I'll take on Judith.- Yeah. - OK, we'll go for Judith.
0:28:59 > 0:29:00What were you reading?
0:29:00 > 0:29:02LAUGHTER
0:29:02 > 0:29:03We could see it in your eyes.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05In my eyes? Panic?
0:29:05 > 0:29:06THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER
0:29:06 > 0:29:09- There's something going on there. - There's a bit of nervousness.
0:29:09 > 0:29:13So Catherine, whose twin brother is a geography teacher,
0:29:13 > 0:29:17is taking on... I'm trying to make that sound as serious as I can!
0:29:17 > 0:29:21..from Ladies Who Lunge takes on our own Judith from the Eggheads.
0:29:21 > 0:29:26Last round before the final. Please, ladies, take your positions.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Catherine, you had a stellar international rugby career
0:29:29 > 0:29:31- if I may say so.- Thank you, Jeremy.
0:29:31 > 0:29:34I don't want to embarrass you, but first cap in 2004,
0:29:34 > 0:29:3863 caps for England, scored 18 times for your country,
0:29:38 > 0:29:39captained the team for three years.
0:29:39 > 0:29:43My goodness. Was it eight Six Nations competitions you were in?
0:29:43 > 0:29:45Yes, it was eight.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47Quite a few. Winning six of them, I think it was.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49I think it was six, yeah.
0:29:49 > 0:29:51So we're on Geography here, Catherine.
0:29:51 > 0:29:56I'm just remembering when you were on before and whether...
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Cos it was maybe a decade ago when you were on Eggheads before
0:29:59 > 0:30:02and what you learned from that appearance...
0:30:02 > 0:30:03I think you were paired with Chris.
0:30:03 > 0:30:08I was. I was up against Chris and I took on Art & Literature, I think,
0:30:08 > 0:30:12which is probably slightly worse than Geography.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14Got to Sudden Death
0:30:14 > 0:30:16and I've spent the last ten years trying to forget about it,
0:30:16 > 0:30:19but here I am again, along with Maggie,
0:30:19 > 0:30:23back to kind of trying to get through it for a second time,
0:30:23 > 0:30:25but we'll see how we go with Geography. You never know.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27We've got to invoke the spirit of your twin brother here,
0:30:27 > 0:30:29who is the geography teacher, right?
0:30:29 > 0:30:32He is, he is exactly that, so I shall try to see if I can
0:30:32 > 0:30:35connect with him in some kind of weird telepathic way
0:30:35 > 0:30:36right at this moment.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39Excellent. International rugby involves travel as well,
0:30:39 > 0:30:41so that should be helpful, too.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43- Let's hope so.- Catherine, would you like to go first or second on
0:30:43 > 0:30:46- Geography?- I was going to go second, but I think I would like to get it
0:30:46 > 0:30:49over and done with, so I think I'd like to go first, please.
0:30:52 > 0:30:56OK, here we go, very tense here, our brilliant Ladies Who Lunge,
0:30:56 > 0:30:59last round now before the final and, Catherine, your first question.
0:30:59 > 0:31:03Dorchester is the county town of which English county?
0:31:07 > 0:31:09OK, I know it's not Lancashire.
0:31:09 > 0:31:14Up North... Well, I say everything is up North, because I live in Kent!
0:31:14 > 0:31:17I'm pretty sure it's not Surrey, cos I think that's probably Guildford,
0:31:17 > 0:31:18so I'm going to go with Dorset.
0:31:18 > 0:31:21Dorset is the right answer, well done.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23Straight in.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26Judith, Studio City is a neighbourhood in which US city?
0:31:30 > 0:31:35Well, I think it's got to be Los Angeles.
0:31:35 > 0:31:36Los Angeles is correct.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40We go back to our Challenger.
0:31:40 > 0:31:44The port of Vigo is in which European country?
0:31:44 > 0:31:46- It's V-I-G-O, OK?- OK.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52- Vigo.- OK, I've not been there.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56I'm just going to have to think about this.
0:31:57 > 0:32:02I don't think it's France, I haven't heard of it as being a French port.
0:32:04 > 0:32:08My Spanish geography is not great.
0:32:08 > 0:32:12I have been to some Spanish islands, I've not been to mainland Spain.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15For some reason, Vigo, it sounds more Greek to me
0:32:15 > 0:32:18than it does Spanish or French.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21I'm going to go with Greece.
0:32:21 > 0:32:22Judith, do you know?
0:32:22 > 0:32:24It's in north-west Spain.
0:32:25 > 0:32:27Spain is the answer, Catherine.
0:32:27 > 0:32:29So we have to hope now Judith comes unstuck,
0:32:29 > 0:32:32which does occasionally happen. Not often, Judith.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34Well, fairly often!
0:32:36 > 0:32:38Here's your question.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41The River Calder flows into which other river
0:32:41 > 0:32:44near the Yorkshire town of Castleford?
0:32:47 > 0:32:50Oh. Well, not the Severn, because that is
0:32:50 > 0:32:53sort of way over to the west.
0:32:56 > 0:32:57The Aire is a Yorkshire river.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01I don't know whether the Trent...
0:33:01 > 0:33:03I mean, the Trent is round about Nottingham,
0:33:03 > 0:33:06so it's in Nottinghamshire. I think it must be Aire.
0:33:06 > 0:33:08The Aire.
0:33:08 > 0:33:09Aire is the right answer.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11It is. Phew.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14I was willing the river to be diverted
0:33:14 > 0:33:15even as you were answering so we
0:33:15 > 0:33:18could say it was wrong. OK, Catherine,
0:33:18 > 0:33:23you've got to get this one right or Ebony may be slightly lonely in the
0:33:23 > 0:33:25final round. Here we go.
0:33:25 > 0:33:30Nauru is an island nation located in which ocean?
0:33:30 > 0:33:32It's N-A-U-R-U, OK?
0:33:37 > 0:33:39Nauru.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41I would love to say that I know this and I have been there
0:33:41 > 0:33:44and I absolutely know where it is, but that's not the case whatsoever,
0:33:44 > 0:33:47so I'm going to have to think about this.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50I don't think it sounds Indian.
0:33:50 > 0:33:54Nauru... N-A-U-R-U?
0:33:54 > 0:33:55N-A-U-R-U.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59Because it doesn't seem like the obvious answer
0:33:59 > 0:34:03and part of me for some reason is thinking Newfoundland-ish,
0:34:03 > 0:34:07Canadian-ish, I'm actually going to go with Atlantic.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09OK.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12Well, the Eggheads have a kind of rule, Catherine, which is that if...
0:34:12 > 0:34:15This is your rule, Judith, you can say what it is.
0:34:15 > 0:34:20Well, when in doubt about islands, you say they live in the Pacific.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22And the answer here is the Pacific.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Catherine, sorry, that means Judith has won through.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27All the Eggheads have won their rounds.
0:34:27 > 0:34:31It's going to be tough in the final, but not by any means impossible,
0:34:31 > 0:34:32especially not for this team of Challengers.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35Come back to us. We'll play the final round.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39This is what we have been playing towards.
0:34:39 > 0:34:40It is time for the final round,
0:34:40 > 0:34:42which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads will not be
0:34:45 > 0:34:48allowed to take part in this round, so Maggie, Catherine,
0:34:48 > 0:34:52Sarah and Goldie from the Ladies Who Lunge, I'm sorry,
0:34:52 > 0:34:54but would you please now leave the studio?
0:34:56 > 0:34:57Ebony, good luck here.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59Your sporting record is stunning.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01You were part of the England team that won
0:35:01 > 0:35:05the ninth ICC Women's Cricket World Cup in Sydney in 2009.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08The first black woman to play for the England team.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11You went on to win the women's World Twenty20,
0:35:11 > 0:35:12the NatWest one-day series,
0:35:12 > 0:35:16you retained the Ashes, and, like some of our other competitors,
0:35:16 > 0:35:19there's a moment where you stop the cricket and you've got to think,
0:35:19 > 0:35:21"What do I want to do with my life?" And you're still quite young.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23Yeah, yeah. I retired quite early,
0:35:23 > 0:35:26partly cos we had such a good year in 2009.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31I don't think it can get better than winning two world tournaments,
0:35:31 > 0:35:34the Ashes, all that sort of stuff.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36So, yeah, I kind of decided to hang up my boots and I was fortunate the
0:35:36 > 0:35:41producers heard me chatting away over the years here and there
0:35:41 > 0:35:44and he just gave me a phone call and that was it, really,
0:35:44 > 0:35:48so now I get to spend time on the airwaves for Test Match Special
0:35:48 > 0:35:51with Jonathan Agnew and the old boys talking cricket,
0:35:51 > 0:35:53so a fantastic opportunity.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56OK. Ebony, good luck doing a similarly brilliant job here
0:35:56 > 0:35:59against the Eggheads. I'm rooting for you.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02Ladies Who Lunge will win £11,000 for your charities
0:36:02 > 0:36:05if you can triumph against these five.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08We've go Steve, Barry, Pat, Kevin and Judith,
0:36:08 > 0:36:11not playing for money themselves, playing for their own reputation.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14It does matter to them that they keep beating the celebrity teams,
0:36:14 > 0:36:17and we want you to stop it right now.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19So, I'm going to ask each team three questions in turn,
0:36:19 > 0:36:21this time the questions are all General Knowledge.
0:36:21 > 0:36:25They can confer, but I'm sorry, that doesn't help you.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28- Yeah.- Can you bring the juggernaut to a halt?
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Let's see. Ebony, would you like to go first or second?
0:36:30 > 0:36:32I'll definitely go first, get in the game, see what happens.
0:36:36 > 0:36:39OK, good luck, Ebony, here we go.
0:36:39 > 0:36:43Normally there are how many humerus bones in the human body?
0:36:43 > 0:36:45Humerus is H-U-M-E-R-U-S.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51I think humerus is upper arms.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54I could be wrong. I definitely think it's upper arms.
0:36:57 > 0:36:59I'm going through the bones in my head.
0:37:02 > 0:37:03I'm going to go upper arms.
0:37:03 > 0:37:06- I'm going to say two. - Two is your answer.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08It's this bone here, is it?
0:37:08 > 0:37:11- That goes from here up to there, Eggheads?- Yes, it's the upper arm.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13- Two is right.- Yes!
0:37:13 > 0:37:14- Yes!- In the game!
0:37:14 > 0:37:19In the game...now. Let's hope.
0:37:19 > 0:37:21Eggheads, what is the square root of 121?
0:37:24 > 0:37:26- 11?- I can't do this one.- 10 is 100.
0:37:26 > 0:37:27Yeah.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32We're all pretty confident that's 11, Jeremy.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34OK. Judith, are you sure?
0:37:34 > 0:37:35No!
0:37:35 > 0:37:37I noticed you didn't want to take part.
0:37:37 > 0:37:40- Absolutely not. I let them do it. - You let them do the maths?
0:37:40 > 0:37:42Yes.
0:37:42 > 0:37:4511 times 11 is 121.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47You're right, Eggheads.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50Ebony, back to you. Which part of the Mediterranean Sea
0:37:50 > 0:37:52lies between Greece and Turkey?
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Catherine, I need Catherine's twin brother here right now
0:38:00 > 0:38:02for a bit of geography.
0:38:03 > 0:38:05If I'm honest, I have no clue.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Between Greece and Turkey.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12I'm going to... It's going to be a pure stab,
0:38:12 > 0:38:14I'm going to say no to the Adriatic Sea.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23I'm going to just go gut and go Balearic Sea.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Balearic. Where is the Balearic Sea, Eggheads?
0:38:27 > 0:38:29- It's near Majorca.- Oh, dear.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31You were right to rule out Adriatic.
0:38:31 > 0:38:34I really thought you were going the right way.
0:38:34 > 0:38:38Aegean. It's the Aegean Sea between Greece and Turkey.
0:38:38 > 0:38:40Don't worry. Still level.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43Eggheads, you can take the lead with this.
0:38:43 > 0:38:47What is the first name of the younger sister of the American model
0:38:47 > 0:38:51and reality television personality Kendall Jenner?
0:38:55 > 0:38:56Kylie.
0:38:56 > 0:38:59- Yeah.- That was meant to be Australian, it sounded Scottish!
0:38:59 > 0:39:02- There is a Kylie Jenner. - There is a Kylie Jenner, definitely.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04- There's a Khloe as well. - There's a Kim. Oh.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07- Not on the list.- I don't know if she's younger or not.
0:39:10 > 0:39:13Katherine, does that ring any bells?
0:39:13 > 0:39:14I think I've heard of a Kylie.
0:39:14 > 0:39:16- Yeah.- Yeah?
0:39:16 > 0:39:19Consensus of opinion, Jeremy, seems to be Kylie.
0:39:19 > 0:39:20- So that's...- Kylie?- Yeah.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23Kylie is your answer? Ebony, are they right?
0:39:23 > 0:39:24Yeah, I think so. Kylie...
0:39:24 > 0:39:27Kim is the oldest, never heard of a Katherine in the Kardashians.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30So it's Kim Kardashian and it is Kylie Jenner.
0:39:30 > 0:39:32You're right, Eggheads.
0:39:32 > 0:39:35I was hoping that they would fall over there.
0:39:35 > 0:39:38I really was. OK.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41Very tense backstage, I can tell you, looking at their faces.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44Ebony, you have to get this...you have to get this right to stay in.
0:39:46 > 0:39:50Which Sussex town established in 1916
0:39:50 > 0:39:54was originally known as New Anzac-on-Sea?
0:39:58 > 0:40:00OK. Right, this is a hard one.
0:40:00 > 0:40:05I don't know, but 1916, a Sussex town, er...
0:40:05 > 0:40:08I'm going to rule out Stoneham just cos I don't know where it is.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10Worthing, I'm sure it's down there,
0:40:10 > 0:40:14and Peacehaven, just the word "haven" makes you think of Newhaven.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Um...
0:40:17 > 0:40:20I'll just get you to repeat the question before I have a stab.
0:40:20 > 0:40:24Take your time. Which Sussex town, established in 1916,
0:40:24 > 0:40:26was originally known as New Anzac-on-Sea?
0:40:28 > 0:40:29On Sea. I've got...
0:40:29 > 0:40:31SHE EXHALES
0:40:31 > 0:40:35I've got to go haven then, just taking the fact that...
0:40:35 > 0:40:37I'm going to go Peacehaven.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39Let's just check with the Eggheads here.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41Anzac-on-Sea, is that a New Zealand dimension there?
0:40:41 > 0:40:43What's going on there?
0:40:43 > 0:40:45Australia and New Zealand,
0:40:45 > 0:40:49because that would have been soon after the Gallipoli landings
0:40:49 > 0:40:51where the Anzacs, the Anzac was the
0:40:51 > 0:40:53Australian and New Zealand Army Corps.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56They famously took a lot of casualties
0:40:56 > 0:41:00and of course many wounded soldiers came back to Sussex
0:41:00 > 0:41:03and the area of the South Coast to recuperate.
0:41:03 > 0:41:05So it's partly to honour them.
0:41:05 > 0:41:07Right. OK.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10And then renamed after the war because of the peace.
0:41:10 > 0:41:11Peacehaven is the right answer.
0:41:11 > 0:41:14- Ooh!- Beautifully done.
0:41:14 > 0:41:18- Right, now I need them to... - Yeah, that's exactly right!
0:41:18 > 0:41:23- We need to just do whatever you have to do.- Send the vibes!
0:41:23 > 0:41:24Send the vibe!
0:41:24 > 0:41:29Eggheads, which former Conservative MP is a successful author in the
0:41:29 > 0:41:32so-called chick lit genre with titles including
0:41:32 > 0:41:35Venus Envy and The Devil You Know?
0:41:39 > 0:41:40Louise Mensch comes to mind.
0:41:40 > 0:41:44She's gone off to America, hasn't she, Louise Mensch?
0:41:44 > 0:41:46She writes under Louise Bagshawe.
0:41:46 > 0:41:51She would certainly classify as chick lit.
0:41:51 > 0:41:55Have we got anything on any of the other two as regards writing?
0:41:55 > 0:41:56No, Esther McVey...
0:41:56 > 0:41:59She was television and then she was politics.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01- Angie Bray?- Don't know much about Angie.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03- Don't know anything about Angie. - Shall we?
0:42:03 > 0:42:05I think Louise Mensch.
0:42:05 > 0:42:08- Yeah.- What I know of her writing would fall within that genre.
0:42:08 > 0:42:12Right. Well, we're not entirely certain, Jeremy,
0:42:12 > 0:42:15but on the basis that we all recognise Louise Mensch
0:42:15 > 0:42:18as an author, that will have to be our answer.
0:42:18 > 0:42:19Louise Mensch.
0:42:19 > 0:42:21Louise Mensch is your answer.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25Was Louise Bagshawe, you're quite right, Eggheads,
0:42:25 > 0:42:27the answer is Louise Mensch,
0:42:27 > 0:42:28and, with that, you've taken it.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31We say congratulations, Eggheads. You have won.
0:42:36 > 0:42:37Well, you've got to come back.
0:42:37 > 0:42:40Yeah, well, I was hoping they would have a generous day
0:42:40 > 0:42:42- and maybe try and...- They do, believe me.- Competitive, isn't it?
0:42:42 > 0:42:44- There's a bit of steel in there. - They don't...
0:42:44 > 0:42:47There's never any generosity, but there is sometimes error,
0:42:47 > 0:42:50isn't there, Eggheads? You just haven't seen much of it today...
0:42:50 > 0:42:53- Yeah.- ..but there are moments where, just for whatever reason,
0:42:53 > 0:42:54it doesn't work out.
0:42:54 > 0:42:56Well, if there's a pure cricket round,
0:42:56 > 0:42:57please feel free to get me back in!
0:42:57 > 0:43:00Oh, Ebony and team, thank you so much for coming in.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03Thanks for playing. Commiserations to Ladies Who Lunge.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them
0:43:06 > 0:43:08and this impressive winning streak continues.
0:43:08 > 0:43:11It does mean the Challengers haven't won the £11,000 for their charity,
0:43:11 > 0:43:14so we roll that over to the next show.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16Eggheads, congratulations.
0:43:16 > 0:43:17Who will beat you?
0:43:17 > 0:43:20Join us next time to see if a new team of celebrity Challengers
0:43:20 > 0:43:22have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:43:22 > 0:43:24There'll be £12,000 to play for.
0:43:24 > 0:43:26Until then, goodbye.
