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?
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads,
0:00:25 > 0:00:29the show where a team of five quiz challengers pit their wits against
0:00:29 > 0:00:31possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33They are the Eggheads.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35Are you ready for your campaign today?
0:00:35 > 0:00:38- Absolutely.- Certainly.- Good stuff, we've got some campaigners here.
0:00:38 > 0:00:42Facing the might of our quiz Goliaths are Tease and Seize.
0:00:42 > 0:00:43Now, the members of this team will be
0:00:43 > 0:00:46familiar to many of you for the work they do on
0:00:46 > 0:00:47various consumer programmes,
0:00:47 > 0:00:51where their reporting results in many wrongs being righted.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53I perform a similar role on Eggheads
0:00:53 > 0:00:56when Kevin takes part in a food and drink round, don't I?
0:00:56 > 0:00:57Let's meet them.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00I'm Chris Hollins, I'm a TV presenter and journalist.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04You've probably seen me on programmes like Watchdog,
0:01:04 > 0:01:07and I did a bit of dancing around in sequins - and won, Jeremy.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10I hate quizzes. I'm useless at them.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12That's why I'm captain.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14Hi, I'm Rebecca Wilcox, you might have seen me on
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Watchdog and Your Money, Their Tricks.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19I'm hugely competitive but without the skill to back it up,
0:01:19 > 0:01:22especially since I'm now a sleep-deprived mother of two.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25I'm Adam Pearson, presenter, actor and campaigner.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28You will know me best from Channel 4's Tricks Of The Restaurant Trade,
0:01:28 > 0:01:32where I ruin, amongst other things, coffee, sushi and burgers.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36Hi, I'm Jasmine Birtles, I'm a financial expert and TV presenter.
0:01:36 > 0:01:40You'll have seen me on various news programmes talking about finance and
0:01:40 > 0:01:43economics and giving you the dos and don'ts as to
0:01:43 > 0:01:47what to do with your money, taken from my own bitter experience.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50And I'm Simon Calder, I'm a travel journalist.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52Yes, I spend my entire life
0:01:52 > 0:01:55on holiday, pretending to work. You should try it.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57So, Chris and team, hello.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59- Hello.- Great to see you, and a reference to the dancing, Chris.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02Are you as good at quizzing as you are at dancing?
0:02:02 > 0:02:03I'm awful.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- Oh really?- Yeah.- Because we always assume that, you know,
0:02:06 > 0:02:08- journalists know stuff. - That's a good question.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10I only thought I was having breakfast with you,
0:02:10 > 0:02:13- Eggheads and Jeremy Vine, I thought, "Wow!"- Oh, right!
0:02:13 > 0:02:17- There was a misunderstanding!- I hadn't even read it. I read the e-mail and now I'm doing a quiz.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Rebecca, how do you feel about this?
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Do you have certain areas outside the obvious
0:02:21 > 0:02:23where you're strong or weak or...?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27I'm going to play my cards close to my chest and reveal that I have
0:02:27 > 0:02:29absolutely no knowledge outside the obvious.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33OK, so that's the consumer area and all the journalism?
0:02:33 > 0:02:35No, you know more... I bet you like music
0:02:35 > 0:02:37and I bet you've done a bit of history.
0:02:37 > 0:02:42I did English, which means I am qualified for nothing but can talk about it prettily.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44So arts and books, OK.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Arts and books, polysyllabic words, general knowledge, no.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50- Right.- Geography, no. Science, no.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Oh, revealing too much!
0:02:52 > 0:02:55It's OK, the initiative is with you, it's fine.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58You get the subject choices and then you can play one at a time.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Adam, what about you? Do you watch this show, do you know it?
0:03:01 > 0:03:03I'm obsessed with quiz shows, even as a young boy,
0:03:03 > 0:03:06all about the quiz shows. So trivia, very much my thing.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10I've got five members of quiz show royalty sitting opposite me,
0:03:10 > 0:03:13but I'm not intimidated!
0:03:13 > 0:03:18If any geeky trivia stuff comes up, I'm the token geek on our team.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22- Oh, good.- If any kind of wrestling, UFC, computer games,
0:03:22 > 0:03:24really niche reality TV knowledge.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28So you've got the trivia nailed, Adam. What about you, Jasmine?
0:03:28 > 0:03:30What's your quiz pedigree?
0:03:30 > 0:03:32There isn't one, I'm afraid. I'm here, basically,
0:03:32 > 0:03:35to make tea for Adam and make sure that he's all right,
0:03:35 > 0:03:37because he's the one with the knowledge.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Like Rebecca, I did English, which is largely staring at the window,
0:03:40 > 0:03:44dribbling down your front. At least in my case, anyway.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47And quizzing is a very British thing, I always think, so, Simon,
0:03:47 > 0:03:51as a journalist, we know each other and you are very detailed about,
0:03:51 > 0:03:55you've got to get the facts and the full stop needs to be in the right place
0:03:55 > 0:03:57and that's a quizzer's mind, I always think.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Well, you'd like to think so, except, of course,
0:04:00 > 0:04:02we are all kind of specialists in our own way,
0:04:02 > 0:04:04so I do a bit on travel,
0:04:04 > 0:04:06I can also answer all the questions on pure maths,
0:04:06 > 0:04:10so I hope something on catastrophe theory will come up, but I fear,
0:04:10 > 0:04:13like last time, it may just be a plain old catastrophe.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Well, you mention last time,
0:04:15 > 0:04:18and it's gone down in Judith's own personal history,
0:04:18 > 0:04:21cos Judith has beaten a scientist on science and
0:04:21 > 0:04:24- a sportsman on sport, and we call you a geographer, Simon...- Yeah.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26..because you travel, and she managed to
0:04:26 > 0:04:27- take you down on geography! - Absolutely!
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- How did that happen? - You're welcome. She was very good.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33You're welcome to go for a rematch if it comes up.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- Thank you.- Good luck, challengers.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs and it goes to our
0:04:39 > 0:04:42challengers' chosen charity when it's a celebrity edition.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:04:45 > 0:04:47that prize money rolls over to our next show.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Now, I can tell you, Tease and Seize,
0:04:49 > 0:04:52the Eggheads won the last four games against the celebrities,
0:04:52 > 0:04:55so there's £5,000 to play for.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Would you like to try?- Yes.- Yes. - Give it a go.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Good stuff. The first head-to-head battle
0:05:00 > 0:05:02is on the subject of politics.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Now, who would like this? You can choose between
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Judith, Kevin, Beth, Steve and Dave.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10- Simon!- Simon!- Politics? - You were on BBC Breakfast.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12You have a tie.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15I've got a tie!
0:05:15 > 0:05:18I'm not sure that that qualifies you to...
0:05:18 > 0:05:21I'll give it a go, but, honestly, it's going to
0:05:21 > 0:05:22be even more of a disaster
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- than it was last time I was here. - I bet it won't.- It's Simon.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Simon against?
0:05:26 > 0:05:28I like, we like the idea of a rematch.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30- Yeah.- Oh, thanks a... Thanks!
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Sorry!
0:05:32 > 0:05:34No, that's fine, no, Judith, OK.
0:05:34 > 0:05:35So, Simon from Tease and Seize goes
0:05:35 > 0:05:38in to bat again against Judith from the Eggheads.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40A bit of a grudge thing going on here.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Yeah, I know, another one!
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Last time it was the geographer on geography.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Let's see whether you can do it this time, Judith.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50To ensure there is no conferring, would you please
0:05:50 > 0:05:52take your positions in our legendary question room?
0:05:53 > 0:05:55All right, so let's see, this is a key thing here.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58You've got to level the scores with Judith
0:05:58 > 0:06:01after your last outing on Celebrity Eggheads. And, Simon,
0:06:01 > 0:06:03would you like to go first or second on politics?
0:06:03 > 0:06:06I will go first, if you will forgive me, please, Judith.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Here is your first question, Simon.
0:06:11 > 0:06:16In 2009, which word did David Cameron famously use
0:06:16 > 0:06:20to describe his party's policy of reducing public spending?
0:06:23 > 0:06:26OK, erm, David Cameron, I remember him,
0:06:26 > 0:06:28he was Prime Minister once, wasn't he?
0:06:28 > 0:06:33Now, it's not prudence, because that was Gordon Brown's catchphrase.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Thriftiness doesn't sound right,
0:06:35 > 0:06:40so I'm going to go for just plain old austerity.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Austerity is quite right. Well done, Simon.
0:06:42 > 0:06:47Judith, which of these politicians was born first?
0:06:51 > 0:06:55Oh, well, George Osborne is only about 40-something,
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Zac Goldsmith is probably about the same.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00It must be Jeremy Corbyn.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02You should just go for the greyest hair.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04- Exactly.- It's a very good way of quizzing.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06- The grey beard. - Jeremy Corbyn is the answer.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Simon, which of these politicians
0:07:08 > 0:07:11was a member of the Watergate inquiry
0:07:11 > 0:07:16investigating whether Richard Nixon should be impeached in the 1970s?
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Let's have a think.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27Barack Obama, far too young.
0:07:27 > 0:07:32Dan Quayle could conceivably have been,
0:07:32 > 0:07:35but Hillary Clinton may have done it.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37It's between those two.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41Which is oldest out of Hillary and Dan?
0:07:42 > 0:07:45I'm going to go for Dan Quayle.
0:07:45 > 0:07:46It's Hillary!
0:07:46 > 0:07:49- Hillary Clinton.- Sorry, everybody.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51All right. Not to worry, but it's Hillary Clinton, so Judith
0:07:51 > 0:07:53has a chance to take the lead here.
0:07:53 > 0:07:58For what does the Government acronym JAM or J-A-M stand for in terms of
0:07:58 > 0:08:02people who are able to pay their bills, but with little to spare?
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Oh, this is Theresa May's thing, isn't it?
0:08:09 > 0:08:11It's just about managing.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14It is just about managing, well done.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15So she takes the lead and it means
0:08:15 > 0:08:17you need to get this one right, Simon.
0:08:17 > 0:08:23Which Labour MP and one-time member of the Shadow Cabinet was a reporter
0:08:23 > 0:08:27and political editor for GMTV before entering politics?
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Well, I'm going to go for Gloria.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Gloria de Piero is quite right, you're absolutely right,
0:08:39 > 0:08:42she was a great broadcaster and went into politics after that,
0:08:42 > 0:08:44so you've saved the day for now,
0:08:44 > 0:08:48but Judith can take the round with this question.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52Who became the president of the European Council in 2014?
0:08:57 > 0:09:00- In 2014?- 2014.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02That's Donald Tusk.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Donald Tusk is the right answer, Judith.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Three out of three. Sorry, Simon.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08There we are,
0:09:08 > 0:09:09she just whistled past you,
0:09:09 > 0:09:12I'm afraid, and has left you at the roadside.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Certainly has. Well done, Judith.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Please return to us and we'll play on.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20All right, so a little bit of a knock for our celebs here,
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Tease and Seize have lost a brain,
0:09:22 > 0:09:25they've lost the brilliant Simon from the final round.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28The Eggheads are still sitting there and Judith is proving
0:09:28 > 0:09:31a little bit hard to conquer, isn't she?
0:09:31 > 0:09:33The next subject for you is arts and books.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36We have two English graduates here, right?
0:09:36 > 0:09:41It's one of us. How do you feel, Rebecca?
0:09:41 > 0:09:43I feel quite stupid today.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45- Good answer!- You and me both.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Listen, Chris, you've got to decide here.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51I am going to go for...
0:09:51 > 0:09:52Jasmine.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53- Oh, phew!- OK, Jasmine.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56All right, before you get up, choose an Egghead.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00- Oh no.- I would say Beth because she's a scientist, but that's mean.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02That's true, yes.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- My husband's a scientist and rubbish on books.- Oh, go on, you are all
0:10:05 > 0:10:08equally amazing, so I will go for Beth because,
0:10:08 > 0:10:10yes, we're hoping that, being a scientist,
0:10:10 > 0:10:14that's your strength and not the other, but I bet it will be.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15All right, very diplomatic.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Let's see, Jasmine from Tease and Seize
0:10:17 > 0:10:19takes on Beth from the Eggheads.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Please, go to the question room.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25So, Jasmine, you began in Steel City.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29Yes. Yes, BBC Radio Sheffield, marvellous place.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32- Sometimes the first job is the best, isn't it?- Yes, yes.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35Absolutely. I think Sheffield is an amazing place,
0:10:35 > 0:10:38- but it has so much, and fantastic countryside.- You've gone through
0:10:38 > 0:10:41so many different jobs. I mean, you've been a producer as well
0:10:41 > 0:10:43- so you see it from the non-broadcasting side.- Yeah.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46That was on, among other things, Breakfast News.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50Yes, Breakfast News, Sky News, LWT, all sorts.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52I've been around, as you say.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54I think I'm basically unemployable.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56Have to work for myself.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58But your main thing is money advice.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02- Absolutely.- And there's a real hunger for it now, isn't there?
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Yes, and, sadly, I don't think it's going to go away.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07It's an ongoing thing, every day there is
0:11:07 > 0:11:09something new that comes up,
0:11:09 > 0:11:11something that you need to talk about,
0:11:11 > 0:11:15something new that either the Government has come up with or companies.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17It's constantly evolving.
0:11:17 > 0:11:18Brilliant. Here we go, Jasmine,
0:11:18 > 0:11:21would you like to go first or second against Beth?
0:11:21 > 0:11:22I think I'd better go first, thank you.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30Good luck, Jasmine. Your first question, which of these was created first?
0:11:37 > 0:11:41Well, I think it's going to have to be Shakespeare.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44I mean, it was a few hundred years ago, Hockney is still around,
0:11:44 > 0:11:47TS Eliot was around last century, so, yes,
0:11:47 > 0:11:49I'm going to go for Romeo And Juliet,
0:11:49 > 0:11:51both by Shakespeare, thank you.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53I was just watching Rebecca's face for if you got it wrong,
0:11:53 > 0:11:55I thought that was going to be great! You're right,
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Romeo And Juliet by Shakespeare.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59They might get harder. Beth,
0:11:59 > 0:12:03what is the name of the vampire who is a central character in the
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Twilight series of books?
0:12:10 > 0:12:14Played by Robert Pattinson in the films and it's Edward Cullen.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Edward Cullen is quite right, Beth, well done.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19Jasmine, which artist is often quoted as saying,
0:12:19 > 0:12:22"It took me four years to paint like Rafael,
0:12:22 > 0:12:25"but a lifetime to paint like a child"?
0:12:31 > 0:12:33I really don't think it was Turner,
0:12:33 > 0:12:38I'm a big fan of Turner and I don't think you could ever accuse him of
0:12:38 > 0:12:39painting like a child.
0:12:39 > 0:12:44Monet, there's a lot of childlike-ness
0:12:44 > 0:12:47about his nympheas, etc.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49But I think it has to be Picasso.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52In fact, I'm fairly certain I've heard that
0:12:52 > 0:12:54quote before somewhere and it
0:12:54 > 0:12:57would make sense that it would be Picasso, cos I've seen some of his,
0:12:57 > 0:13:02if you like, proper drawings as well as his signature work, so yeah,
0:13:02 > 0:13:03I'd go for Picasso.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Picasso is right. Well done, Jasmine, two out of two.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Picasso it is. OK, Beth.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Your question. "I met a traveller from an antique land"
0:13:12 > 0:13:15is the opening line of which poem
0:13:15 > 0:13:16by Percy Bysshe Shelley?
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Oh, I wish I knew the quote better,
0:13:23 > 0:13:26but I think this may be familiar to you,
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Jeremy, in some form or another.
0:13:29 > 0:13:30It's Ozymandias.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Ozymandias is correct, and yes,
0:13:33 > 0:13:37I was on Pointless and this came up and I just drew an utter blank on it
0:13:37 > 0:13:39so I then went and looked it up.
0:13:39 > 0:13:40Ozymandias is right, well done.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Two-two. Right, Jasmine,
0:13:43 > 0:13:46in which English city was an offshoot of
0:13:46 > 0:13:49the Old Vic Theatre established in 1946?
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Um, I would guess...
0:13:55 > 0:13:58We definitely still have Bristol Old Vic.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01I haven't heard of Exeter Old Vic or Plymouth,
0:14:01 > 0:14:03so I'm going to go for Bristol.
0:14:03 > 0:14:07Bristol Old Vic is right, well done. Three out of three, playing well.
0:14:07 > 0:14:08The team are excited.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12As excited as consumer journalists get!
0:14:12 > 0:14:15- Now, so, Beth, you've got to get this right to stay in.- Yep.
0:14:15 > 0:14:19We've got a little bit of pressure on the Egghead here. Let's see if she cracks.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22A Good Man In Africa, which won the Whitbread award in 1981,
0:14:22 > 0:14:25was the debut novel of which writer?
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Whitbread, 1981...
0:14:32 > 0:14:35They've all been going a long time.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39I know novels by Ian McEwen and novels by Julian Barnes,
0:14:39 > 0:14:41neither of...
0:14:41 > 0:14:45None of them have the title that you mentioned.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48It doesn't mean to say that they haven't written a book called that.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50I'm going for William Boyd.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Is she right, Jasmine?
0:14:52 > 0:14:54I honestly don't know. I would have went for Julian Barnes,
0:14:54 > 0:14:59but I'm not a modern literature specialist.
0:14:59 > 0:15:00William Boyd is right.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Born in Accra in Ghana.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04So, three questions each, the scores are level.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06Sudden death!
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Exactly, Adam, we go to sudden death.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11You've seen the show. It gets a bit harder, Jasmine,
0:15:11 > 0:15:13I don't give you alternatives.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17OK, here we go. Which novel by Charles Dickens begins with the line,
0:15:17 > 0:15:20"Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life
0:15:20 > 0:15:25"or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show"?
0:15:25 > 0:15:26Oh!
0:15:26 > 0:15:28It's a novel by Charles Dickens, we want.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31I would think that would be
0:15:31 > 0:15:35one of the names ones like David Copperfield or Oliver Twist,
0:15:35 > 0:15:38but not necessarily.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41It's not A Tale Of Two Cities, I know that.
0:15:41 > 0:15:42Um...
0:15:42 > 0:15:45I'm going to go for David Copperfield.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47Let's see if your team-mates know.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49I would have maybe said Nicholas Nickleby.
0:15:49 > 0:15:50You would have said Nicholas Nickleby,
0:15:50 > 0:15:54- the same logic as Jasmine is using, which is a name. - Yes. Eponymous hero.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57- Yes, could be Nicholas Nickleby.- All right, so, yeah, it's good that
0:15:57 > 0:16:00- you're there, Jasmine, cos you're right.- Yes!- Oh! Oh, wow!
0:16:00 > 0:16:01Oh, phew!
0:16:03 > 0:16:05David Copperfield is right.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Nice quizzing there, well done.
0:16:07 > 0:16:08So, again, pressure on Beth.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Beth, you've got to get this right.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Passepartout is the valet of which Jules Verne protagonist?
0:16:14 > 0:16:17He is Phileas Fogg's man.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21Phileas Fogg is right, from Around The World In 80 Days.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24We are on sudden death and we're back with you, Jasmine.
0:16:24 > 0:16:29A Doll's House is an 1879 play by which author?
0:16:31 > 0:16:32We do need a first name and the surname.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Isn't it Ibsen? Henrik Ibsen?
0:16:35 > 0:16:39I can't remember his first name, but, yes, I think Henrik Ibsen.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42Henrik Ibsen is quite right, well done. Well done.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44OK, Beth, over to you.
0:16:44 > 0:16:48A Question Of Upbringing is the first in a series of 12 novels
0:16:48 > 0:16:52that make up which famous work of literature?
0:16:52 > 0:16:54I'm not entirely sure.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58I think this falls out of my immediate realm of knowledge.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03I'm going to go for A Dance To The Music Of Time.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05A Dance To The Music Of Time is correct.
0:17:07 > 0:17:08- Well done.- That is brilliant.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12- That is very good.- Sudden death, Jasmine, your question.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15Which French actor and playwright wrote the 17th-century comedy,
0:17:15 > 0:17:17The Bourgeois Gentleman?
0:17:18 > 0:17:21I think that must be Moliere.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Moliere is correct!
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Well done, Jasmine!
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Thank you. Beth, to stay in,
0:17:27 > 0:17:34a private view of an art exhibition is sometimes called a vernissage.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38This being the French word for which procedure?
0:17:38 > 0:17:41I think I may be sitting here in the final round. Erm...
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Vernissage...
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Oh, I don't know. A face-lift.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51It's... Face-lift is your answer?
0:17:51 > 0:17:55- Yeah.- It's from when people could come in to see the artist doing the
0:17:55 > 0:17:56finishing touches to things that
0:17:56 > 0:17:59they were showing off when the exhibition opened
0:17:59 > 0:18:02and they were often varnishing, and varnishing is the answer.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05- Oh, I see.- So well done, Jasmine!
0:18:05 > 0:18:07Hey!
0:18:07 > 0:18:10No doubt about it, that was no fluke, you won.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Well done. You've taken on an Egghead
0:18:12 > 0:18:14and you've beaten Beth and Beth is out,
0:18:14 > 0:18:16so please return to us, both of you, and we'll play the next round.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Well, well, well, Tease and Seize have lost a brain from the final round
0:18:21 > 0:18:25but the Eggheads had a brain knocked out as well,
0:18:25 > 0:18:27and the next subject is sport.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29I'm thinking this could be an easier decision for the captain.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Yes.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33- I was so fearing that. - A bit obvious, a bit obvious.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35- Go on.- Sadly, it's me.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37I think you're going to be great on this.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Now, what are you going to do?
0:18:39 > 0:18:41You've got Dave, Steve or Kevin left,
0:18:41 > 0:18:42Kevin known as the Grand Master.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46Do you want to hurl yourself at the biggest brain in the world?
0:18:46 > 0:18:51Jeremy, I will take on the biggest brain in the history of quizzing.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53In the round of sport. Kevin, you're mine.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Chris from Tease and Seize takes on Kevin.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59A major tactical strike here by the consumer journalists.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Please, go to the question room now.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Well, I hope I haven't got you into trouble here, Chris.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08You have!
0:19:08 > 0:19:10But honestly, you're almost the most complete sport quizzer I
0:19:10 > 0:19:13can imagine, cos you're not only somebody who's reported it,
0:19:13 > 0:19:15but you're somebody who's played it.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18Yes, I did, when I had one chin, I was not a bad sportsman,
0:19:18 > 0:19:21a jack of all trades. Obviously there is sport in the blood.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25My father was a very successful footballer and I played a bit of football
0:19:25 > 0:19:28after I left university, but I played a bit of pro cricket as well.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31Your father was with Chelsea.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33- Chelsea and Arsenal. - When I've gone to Chelsea,
0:19:33 > 0:19:36I've seen him brought out on the field sometimes, which was brilliant.
0:19:36 > 0:19:37Yes. Hobbling along.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40If only he played in this era, I would be just a playboy,
0:19:40 > 0:19:42I'd be a millionaire!
0:19:42 > 0:19:46What I didn't realise is that you had played first-class cricket for
0:19:46 > 0:19:48- Oxford University. - That's right, I was
0:19:48 > 0:19:52a boy, I used to play for Kent all the way through and then I went to
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Oxford after Durham.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58- I got a 100, I got a century at Lord's in the varsity match.- Wow.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00And so I can retire a very happy man,
0:20:00 > 0:20:02and now I've got a son and daughter I
0:20:02 > 0:20:05can bore them to death with that story for the rest of their lives.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07Brilliant. Good luck.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09On sport, Chris, would you like to go first or second?
0:20:09 > 0:20:11I'll go first.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Too early for the head in the hands!
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Team captain, here we go, your first question, in professional boxing,
0:20:19 > 0:20:23cruiserweight comes between light heavyweight and which other weight class?
0:20:27 > 0:20:28It's...
0:20:29 > 0:20:32..either between middleweight or heavyweight.
0:20:32 > 0:20:33Um...
0:20:34 > 0:20:36I'm going to say middleweight.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39Kevin, can you help here?
0:20:39 > 0:20:41It is in between...
0:20:41 > 0:20:44It was one that was created quite late in the day, really, as
0:20:44 > 0:20:50a way of heavyweights who weren't quite as heavyweight as some others.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52It's a good start. Really enjoyed it.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55- So the answer is heavyweight. - Heavyweight is the answer, Chris.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Thanks for getting me and my favourite subject of boxing.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00OK, Kevin, your question.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02The men's England team went undefeated for the
0:21:02 > 0:21:06whole of 2016 in which of these sports?
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Well, it's certainly not football
0:21:11 > 0:21:13after the Euro...
0:21:14 > 0:21:16..2016 debacle.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18And...
0:21:20 > 0:21:21As between the other two...
0:21:24 > 0:21:27No, I don't think they've had the best of years in cricket either,
0:21:27 > 0:21:28so rugby union.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Rugby union is correct.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33I know you knew that, Chris.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36Yep, boxing or that question, what a swiz!
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Right, here is your question,
0:21:39 > 0:21:45the Russian footballer Lev Yashin played in which position?
0:21:49 > 0:21:50Are you serious?
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Lev Yashin.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58I can't see him, I can't even imagine what he looks like,
0:21:58 > 0:22:01so for some strange reason I've gone blank there.
0:22:01 > 0:22:02Yashin...
0:22:03 > 0:22:06I'm just trying to think who he would have played for.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09Lev Yashin, a Russian footballer.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14I'm imagining he's not a current footballer,
0:22:14 > 0:22:18because I can't remember him playing for anyone recently
0:22:18 > 0:22:21and I apologise if he is.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25Lev Yashin, he must be a legendary Russian footballer
0:22:25 > 0:22:28who must have played...
0:22:30 > 0:22:32I'm going to say right midfield.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Right midfield, let's see if your team-mates know.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36- Team-mates?- Simon knows.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Yes, I would like to point out, Jeremy...
0:22:39 > 0:22:42- Does Simon know?- Yeah, hang on, he's just explaining it.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Goalkeeper, but he actually played for the Soviet Union,
0:22:45 > 0:22:47not Russia, at the time.
0:22:47 > 0:22:48Yes, but he was Russian.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51- OK, right, fair enough.- The question is the Russian footballer...
0:22:51 > 0:22:55- Yeah.- ..Lev Yashin played in which position? Simon does know.
0:22:55 > 0:22:56I wanted to say goalkeeper.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59- Goalkeeper is right.- Oh, good. I'm glad I didn't go for that one.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00Goalkeeper is right.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04OK, well, this is looking a bit sticky here, Mr Hollins.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Kevin, if he gets this right, will be in the final round.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09Here we go, Kevin, with your question.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11Who was the captain of Great Britain's victorious
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Davis Cup team in 2015?
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Well, there are a couple of great British
0:23:20 > 0:23:23tennis names from the '70s and
0:23:23 > 0:23:25'80s there with John Lloyd and Roger Taylor,
0:23:25 > 0:23:29but I think that the Davis Cup captain was, uh...
0:23:29 > 0:23:32Scot... Leon Smith.
0:23:32 > 0:23:33Leon Smith is the right answer.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37Sorry, Chris. I'm sorry.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40No way back. Kevin, you're in the final round. Chris, I'm sorry,
0:23:40 > 0:23:43you've been knocked out. Please return to us now.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47Right, we must never mention that Russian goalkeeper again.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50I thoroughly enjoyed that, thank you, Jeremy.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53It's always a nightmare going in on your best subject.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55I think it's much better to go in on food and to encourage something.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57It was just... "Oh, brilliant, thank you."
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Don't worry, Tease and Seize have lost
0:23:59 > 0:24:01a couple of brains from the final round.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03The Eggheads have only lost one.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06The next subject for you is film and TV, so who would like this?
0:24:06 > 0:24:08It's between Adam and Rebecca.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10It has to be Adam, doesn't it?
0:24:10 > 0:24:12He has... He has...
0:24:12 > 0:24:13Very much so, yes.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15It's got him written all over it, hasn't it?
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Yeah, let's do this.
0:24:17 > 0:24:18Adam against who?
0:24:18 > 0:24:20Now, it's Steve and Dave left.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22The two on the left.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23I don't think you should do Dave.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25You instinctively don't think I should do Dave?
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- Yeah, I don't know why. I like Dave. - I'm going to trust your instinct
0:24:28 > 0:24:30based upon zero evidence whatsoever.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32I'm going to go for Steve.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34All right, good, Adam from Tease and Seize
0:24:34 > 0:24:36versus one of our newer Eggheads,
0:24:36 > 0:24:40Steve, who's bedding in nicely there on the Eggheads team.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42To ensure there is no conferring, please, for the last time,
0:24:42 > 0:24:43go to our question room.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48I remember the first time I saw you on screen, Adam, it was
0:24:48 > 0:24:51three years ago and I went to see a film with Scarlett Johansson in.
0:24:51 > 0:24:52Yes, Under The Skin.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55And what an extraordinary film that was.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58I've still got it in my mind now and I can't...
0:24:58 > 0:25:00I've never seen a film like it.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03It was bizarre, being a part of.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Bearing in mind, I only applied and auditioned as a bit of a joke
0:25:06 > 0:25:09and the next thing I know, I'm running around Glasgow
0:25:09 > 0:25:10with Scarlett Johansson.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13And got to know her, I gather.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17Yeah, we hung out, spent a lot of time in a van, she tried to kill me,
0:25:17 > 0:25:20but we've moved past all of that.
0:25:20 > 0:25:21What was that like for you,
0:25:21 > 0:25:24because you presumably had people stopping you in the street and saying,
0:25:24 > 0:25:26"OK, I've saw you in the film,"
0:25:26 > 0:25:28and the film almost had a message to it as well, didn't it?
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Yeah, and
0:25:30 > 0:25:35going from having no acting experience to doing what became quite a
0:25:35 > 0:25:38well acclaimed film is an adjustment period,
0:25:38 > 0:25:41and going to all these various screenings
0:25:41 > 0:25:44and what have you and just
0:25:44 > 0:25:47the whole seeing behind the film
0:25:47 > 0:25:50of what does life look like through alien eyes for
0:25:50 > 0:25:57someone without knowledge and almost without prejudice is really complex
0:25:57 > 0:25:58to try and wrap your brain around.
0:25:58 > 0:26:03And when you pair that with the acting and just the spine-tingling soundtrack,
0:26:03 > 0:26:07it's an amazing project and I was very fortunate to be involved.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10And I know you've been involved in a lot of outreach programmes to stop
0:26:10 > 0:26:14bullying associated with a person's appearance.
0:26:14 > 0:26:15Yeah, absolutely,
0:26:15 > 0:26:18be it disfigurement-related or non-disfigurement-related,
0:26:18 > 0:26:24I think every man, woman and child has the right to be comfortable in their own skin,
0:26:24 > 0:26:28whereas back when I was young in the '90s,
0:26:28 > 0:26:31bullying was very much a playground thing.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34The advent of social networking has made it a much
0:26:34 > 0:26:40bigger, bigger deal and to be able to campaign for everyone just to
0:26:40 > 0:26:44be who they are and send a message that it's OK not to be OK,
0:26:44 > 0:26:49everyone is jacked up to one degree or another and we just need to get
0:26:49 > 0:26:52over ourselves and learn to be nice to each other.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55The condition you've got is a genetic one, isn't it?
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Yes, type one neurofibromatosis.
0:26:57 > 0:27:02It affects your 17th chromosome of the human DNA.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05And you are now, leaving that to one side,
0:27:05 > 0:27:09you're really well known for mainstream work on TV
0:27:09 > 0:27:11that you do on Channel 4 and so on,
0:27:11 > 0:27:15and I guess, having seen you doing it, really enjoy.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19I really enjoy working on Tricks Of The Restaurant Trade as I get to
0:27:19 > 0:27:21tell people how much sugar is in their coffee,
0:27:21 > 0:27:24how much salt is in their sushi.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28I'm slowly but surely ruining all food for all people and getting paid to do it.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32Well, it's been really obvious watching you just today that you are
0:27:32 > 0:27:34really into Eggheads, cos you know all the Eggheads,
0:27:34 > 0:27:38you know what their strengths are and you love to quiz as well.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42I'm a big quiz show fan, this is like an epic day out for me.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44My mum will be so proud.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47OK, well good luck here.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49It's film and TV, Adam,
0:27:49 > 0:27:51and would you like to go first or second against Steve?
0:27:51 > 0:27:53I will go first, please.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Here is your first question.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00What is the name of the character
0:28:00 > 0:28:04in the TV comedy Fawlty Towers who comes from Barcelona?
0:28:07 > 0:28:10That would be Manuel.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13It is indeed Manuel, played by the great Andrew Sachs.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16Steve, in EastEnders,
0:28:16 > 0:28:20Ian Beale survived a 1996 assassination attempt
0:28:20 > 0:28:23orchestrated by which of his wives?
0:28:27 > 0:28:29Soaps...
0:28:29 > 0:28:31No. Right.
0:28:31 > 0:28:35I think Jane might have been more recent,
0:28:35 > 0:28:38Melanie I don't even know,
0:28:38 > 0:28:40but I do know Cindy was in it for quite a while,
0:28:40 > 0:28:42hopefully around that era,
0:28:42 > 0:28:46so on a wing and a prayer, I'll say Cindy.
0:28:46 > 0:28:50Let's go to Judith, because Judith is rarely away from Eastenders.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53I think I'd have gone far Cindy, but I don't know.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55Cindy is right.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58Oh, I thought he was going to come unstuck there,
0:28:58 > 0:29:00Adam, but he had just enough.
0:29:00 > 0:29:02Here's your second question.
0:29:02 > 0:29:06Which character in Game Of Thrones is played by Alfie Allen?
0:29:12 > 0:29:15I am probably the only person on the planet
0:29:15 > 0:29:18that doesn't watch Game Of Thrones.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21I'm going to have to guess.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25I'm going to go...
0:29:28 > 0:29:30..Robb Stark.
0:29:30 > 0:29:32Robb Stark is your answer.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Who's the biggest Game Of Thrones fans here?
0:29:34 > 0:29:36- Here.- Rebecca?
0:29:36 > 0:29:38Yeah. I would have said Theon Greyjoy.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42- Yeah, it is Theon Greyjoy. - Oh, sorry!
0:29:42 > 0:29:46All right, Steve, to take the lead,
0:29:46 > 0:29:49who's been the main presenter of the BBC show Daily Politics since its
0:29:49 > 0:29:52launch in 2003?
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Erm, a lot of Andrews there.
0:30:00 > 0:30:01Well, I know...
0:30:03 > 0:30:05Rightly or wrongly, I'm going to discount Andrew Castle.
0:30:05 > 0:30:08I think he's more sporting, tennis, that sort of stuff.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12I'm going to opt for Andrew Marr.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14That must be wrong, then.
0:30:14 > 0:30:17What? I didn't think that was going to happen, you got it wrong!
0:30:17 > 0:30:19- I don't know.- You got it wrong.
0:30:19 > 0:30:24Andrew Neil, is, I suppose, has the whole franchise of This Week,
0:30:24 > 0:30:26and then the Sunday Politics and the Daily Politics.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28- Yep.- And Andrew Marr has The Andrew Marr Show,
0:30:28 > 0:30:30so the answer is Andrew Neil.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32- Oh. Didn't know.- That's handy.
0:30:32 > 0:30:35Right, focus now, Adam, here we go.
0:30:35 > 0:30:37Get this one right, it puts the pressure on Steve.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40Who knows? You can level it up going into the final round.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44Who is the creator of the TV drama series Cold Feet?
0:30:48 > 0:30:53Simply cause the name just rings a bell
0:30:53 > 0:30:57and the one that jumped out at me straightaway was Steven Moffat.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01I'm going to go with that, final answer, Steven Moffat.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04He does Doctor Who and he does Sherlock,
0:31:04 > 0:31:06but did he do Cold Feet as well?
0:31:06 > 0:31:08Steve?
0:31:08 > 0:31:10I don't know, I don't think it's Paul Abbott,
0:31:10 > 0:31:11cos he's Shameless.
0:31:11 > 0:31:13I'd have probably gone the other one, Mike Bullen.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15Mike Bullen is the answer.
0:31:15 > 0:31:16Oh.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18Mike Bullen is the answer there.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20Steve, you have a chance to take the round.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23Who directed in 1952 film High Noon?
0:31:27 > 0:31:29- Fred Zinneman.- Oh!
0:31:29 > 0:31:31You know that straightaway?
0:31:31 > 0:31:33- I like my films.- Is he right, Adam? Do you know this one?
0:31:33 > 0:31:36- Yeah, he's right.- Fred Zinnemann is the right answer, Steve,
0:31:36 > 0:31:39you're in the final round. Sorry, Adam, you've been knocked out.
0:31:39 > 0:31:40Come back to us
0:31:40 > 0:31:42and we'll play that final round.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46What a game. This is what we have been playing towards.
0:31:46 > 0:31:47It is time for the final round, which,
0:31:47 > 0:31:49as always, is general knowledge,
0:31:49 > 0:31:51but I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:31:51 > 0:31:54won't be allowed to take part in this round,
0:31:54 > 0:31:58so, I'm afraid, Chris, Adam and Simon from the Tease and Seize
0:31:58 > 0:32:02and also Beth from the Eggheads, I have to ask you to leave the studio.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05Good luck here, Rebecca, Jasmine.
0:32:05 > 0:32:09- Thanks.- You're playing to win for your team, Tease and Seize, £5,000.
0:32:09 > 0:32:12Bear in mind other celebs have fallen at this stage
0:32:12 > 0:32:15so there's no shame in losing, but I think you can win this.
0:32:15 > 0:32:18Dave, Steve, Kevin, Judith, we know how much this means to you,
0:32:18 > 0:32:20cos your reputation is on the line.
0:32:20 > 0:32:23As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25They're all general knowledge.
0:32:25 > 0:32:26You can confer.
0:32:26 > 0:32:29So, Rebecca and Jasmine, the question is,
0:32:29 > 0:32:33can your two consumer journalist brains defeat
0:32:33 > 0:32:36these four, huge egg-sized ones over here?
0:32:36 > 0:32:39Would you like to go first or second?
0:32:39 > 0:32:42- Do you want to go first?- Let's go first.- We want to go first.- Yes.
0:32:45 > 0:32:47Good luck, both.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49In 2010,
0:32:49 > 0:32:52which DJ took over as the host of BBC Radio 2's
0:32:52 > 0:32:54Drivetime slot from Chris Evans?
0:32:59 > 0:33:02So, before Jeremy gave the options,
0:33:02 > 0:33:04I was going to say Chris Evans!
0:33:04 > 0:33:06- Oh, right!- He's in the question!
0:33:06 > 0:33:08Well, Steve Wright is Steve Wright In The Afternoon,
0:33:08 > 0:33:10Steve Wright is Steve Wright In The Afternoon,
0:33:10 > 0:33:11I'm sometimes on his show.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13Zane, I think he's in the morning.
0:33:13 > 0:33:17Simon Mayo I know does... after Steve Wright, so yeah,
0:33:17 > 0:33:19that must be Drivetime.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21- Simon Mayo, please.- Simon Mayo.
0:33:21 > 0:33:24It would be so embarrassing if you got this wrong, but you haven't.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26Simon Mayo is right. I mean, not for you,
0:33:26 > 0:33:28but I would have to go and explain to him.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32First question in the final round to our Eggheads here.
0:33:32 > 0:33:36The 2015 hit What Do You Mean was the first UK number one single
0:33:36 > 0:33:38for which pop singer?
0:33:42 > 0:33:43Justin Bieber.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46- Is it Bieber?- Definitely. - Have you got the fever?
0:33:47 > 0:33:49We've got the fever, here,
0:33:49 > 0:33:51for Justin Bieber, please.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54- So you are a Belieber? - No, not at all.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Justin Bieber is quite right.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58We go back to our challengers.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03How many countries share a border with Kenya?
0:34:03 > 0:34:05SHE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY
0:34:08 > 0:34:12- Kenya has a coast. - Yes, so if you've got Tanzania...
0:34:13 > 0:34:15It can't be eight, surely.
0:34:15 > 0:34:19- So, again, before the options came up I was thinking three!- Were you?
0:34:19 > 0:34:21But that's clearly not right.
0:34:21 > 0:34:22- OK.- I would say...
0:34:22 > 0:34:25- Shall we say...? I don't know. - I'd say five.
0:34:25 > 0:34:28- I'd say five.- Because it's big. Look at my geography.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31- Yes!- It's big and it's on the corner.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34I did geography A-level.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36It can't be eight. Shall we just go five?
0:34:36 > 0:34:40Yeah, why not? I'm really sorry, my geography teacher.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43- Me, too.- We're going to go for five.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Five. Now, Simon is the man to answer this question.
0:34:45 > 0:34:48Simon, I can see you counting them off. How many?
0:34:48 > 0:34:54Right, I have got Somalia, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda,
0:34:54 > 0:34:56so it's obviously not two.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59There's one more, which I can't, I'm embarrassed to say,
0:34:59 > 0:35:00but definitely five.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02- Tanzania?- I think I remember,
0:35:02 > 0:35:06as Africa correspondent, flying from Kenya into Sudan,
0:35:06 > 0:35:09so I think Sudan is one as well. Could it be Sudan is next to it?
0:35:09 > 0:35:11Or South Sudan, who knows?
0:35:11 > 0:35:13South Sudan, I think that's right, actually.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15- Five is the answer.- Yes!- Yay!
0:35:15 > 0:35:17- Well done.- We knew that,
0:35:17 > 0:35:19all that fluffing was just
0:35:19 > 0:35:21- for...- Just fluff, as you say. - ..for entertainment.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24OK, Eggheads, here we go.
0:35:24 > 0:35:28Which of the seven wonders of the ancient world was located in Ephesus?
0:35:33 > 0:35:36- Temple of Artemis.- Temple of Artemis. Happy with that?- Yeah.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39Temple of Artemis, are you happy with that?
0:35:39 > 0:35:42- Yep.- We're going to go for the Temple of Artemis, please.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45Temple of Artemis is quite right.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47OK, this is great,
0:35:47 > 0:35:51you're playing fantastically well. The Latin phrase
0:35:51 > 0:35:55used mainly in the US to describe the highest of the three
0:35:55 > 0:36:00designations for above average achievement in academic examinations
0:36:00 > 0:36:04is summa cum what?
0:36:06 > 0:36:08- Laude.- Let's do it like them.
0:36:08 > 0:36:09Laude.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12Yeah, we totally know this.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15- Laude.- And then if we are wrong...
0:36:15 > 0:36:17Yes! So laude is right.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19- Yes!- Thank you.- Three out of three. - Yay!- Whoo!
0:36:19 > 0:36:22- No trouble.- Are you all proud? - Well done. Great stuff.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25Your third question, Eggheads,
0:36:25 > 0:36:27we've got a bit of a history with third questions recently.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29£5,000 we're playing for.
0:36:29 > 0:36:34In 2015, who became the first man to have been manager of both Newcastle
0:36:34 > 0:36:36and Sunderland football clubs?
0:36:40 > 0:36:42It's definitely Sam Allardyce, isn't it?
0:36:42 > 0:36:44Sam Allardyce has managed both teams.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47- Moyes hasn't.- Moyes hasn't managed Newcastle.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49Alan Pardew has just managed Newcastle.
0:36:49 > 0:36:53Sam Allardyce has definitely managed Newcastle and Sunderland.
0:36:53 > 0:36:55- OK.- Is that our answer?
0:36:55 > 0:36:57- Judith, are you happy with that?- Yep.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00We're going to go for Sam Allardyce, please, Jeremy.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02Sam Allardyce is right.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04We go to sudden death. You know what this is like, Jasmine.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07- Yep.- Gets a bit harder. I don't give you alternatives,
0:37:07 > 0:37:08but you can confer, OK?
0:37:08 > 0:37:11You've got each other. Here's question.
0:37:11 > 0:37:15The doughnut is the nickname given to the headquarters of which
0:37:15 > 0:37:19Gloucestershire-based intelligence agency?
0:37:19 > 0:37:21Is that the listening? The ones that listen?
0:37:21 > 0:37:23- Don't they all?- Yes!
0:37:23 > 0:37:27The ones that, you'll... Oh, golly, I can't think of the name of it.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30- I've seen it and... - Yes, exactly.
0:37:30 > 0:37:31It is, erm...
0:37:32 > 0:37:34The listening agency.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37Best I can say, It's not...
0:37:37 > 0:37:39And it's Government.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41Gloucestershire-based intelligence agency.
0:37:41 > 0:37:42Come on, come on, come on.
0:37:42 > 0:37:46If I said to you, an interesting story about an intelligence agency,
0:37:46 > 0:37:48you would say, "Oh, you mean...?
0:37:48 > 0:37:51"Yeah, the listening agency," that's what I would say.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53Who listens in?
0:37:53 > 0:37:56- GCHQ.- Oh! Yes, I like that!
0:37:56 > 0:38:00- Shall we do that?- GCHQ.- Yes, GCHQ.
0:38:00 > 0:38:01Jasmine, well done.
0:38:01 > 0:38:05- GCHQ!- You are amazing!
0:38:05 > 0:38:08OK, here we go, Eggheads.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12The RAF's motto, "Per ardua ad astra"
0:38:12 > 0:38:15means, "Through struggles to the..." what?
0:38:15 > 0:38:18Stars. Stars. We happy with stars?
0:38:18 > 0:38:20- Yep. Stars.- Stars is our answer. - Yep.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23Stars, please, Jeremy.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25Stars is correct. Sudden death.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Back to you, Jasmine and Rebecca.
0:38:27 > 0:38:32Which influential Grammy-winning rock band were formed in the mid-'80s at
0:38:32 > 0:38:33Abingdon School in Oxfordshire?
0:38:33 > 0:38:36Well, Radiohead's from Oxford.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39- Oh, are they?- Yeah. See, you're Cambridge,
0:38:39 > 0:38:41so you wouldn't know that!
0:38:41 > 0:38:43Who else was formed in Oxfordshire?
0:38:43 > 0:38:45Truly, I don't know.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48- Shall we just go with Radiohead? - It's the only one, I mean, you know,
0:38:48 > 0:38:51it sounds good to me and I'm imagining they have won a Grammy.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54- Yeah.- They must have done, so yeah.
0:38:54 > 0:38:55Up to you. Go for it.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57Radiohead.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59You've got five correct answers.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02Well done. Radiohead is right.
0:39:02 > 0:39:03Will this win you the £5,000?
0:39:03 > 0:39:05Let's see here.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08- There are charities waiting. - Anything can happen in sudden death.
0:39:08 > 0:39:09- We don't want to worry you. - Feel guilt.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11This is not easy, this one.
0:39:11 > 0:39:17Which writer, Eggheads, created the character of Conan the Barbarian?
0:39:17 > 0:39:18- Robert E Howard. - What were you saying?
0:39:18 > 0:39:21- Robert E Howard. - Robert E Howard?- Yeah.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24- Just say Robert Howard.- Happy with Robert Howard?- Yeah.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27Robert Howard, please, Jeremy.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29Robert Howard is correct.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32- Oh, no!- Robert E Howard is correct as well, by the way, so well done.
0:39:32 > 0:39:35OK, this is great,
0:39:35 > 0:39:36you're playing fantastically well.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38Seriously. Sudden death.
0:39:38 > 0:39:42Challengers, after seeing her in a 1946 play,
0:39:42 > 0:39:46to which actress did Agatha Christie drop a note saying,
0:39:46 > 0:39:49"I hope one day you will play my dear Miss Marple"?
0:39:49 > 0:39:51It'll be Angela Lansbury.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54Yes, Angela Lansbury would fit with the timeline.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57In my head, it came up as Angela Rippon, which is wrong!
0:39:57 > 0:40:02So, yes, who was the more white-haired old lady that did it?
0:40:02 > 0:40:05It wouldn't be Margaret Rutherford?
0:40:05 > 0:40:07I mean, she played it. Which year was it, sorry?
0:40:07 > 0:40:10After seeing her in a 1946 play...
0:40:10 > 0:40:12It could be Margaret Rutherford.
0:40:12 > 0:40:14..which actress did Agatha Christie drop a note saying,
0:40:14 > 0:40:17"I hope one day you will play my dear Miss Marple"?
0:40:17 > 0:40:19Miss Marple, I don't think Angela Lansbury.
0:40:19 > 0:40:21Right. Erm...
0:40:21 > 0:40:24- Did you say Margaret Rutherford? - Margaret Rutherford.
0:40:25 > 0:40:26Definitely, she played it?
0:40:26 > 0:40:28- Oh, yes.- Well, then, shall we just do it?
0:40:28 > 0:40:31- Go for it.- Margaret Rutherford.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33OK, let us check with the Eggheads.
0:40:33 > 0:40:35- Oh, that means we got it wrong! - Is it Margaret Rutherford?
0:40:35 > 0:40:38I would have said so. I would have said Margaret Rutherford.
0:40:38 > 0:40:40I've got a strange idea that
0:40:40 > 0:40:45quite early in her career, Agatha Christie looked at Joan Hickson,
0:40:45 > 0:40:49and thought, who famously played her for a long time on TV, and thought,
0:40:49 > 0:40:53she had the right quality to do it, so I think it's Joan Hickson,
0:40:53 > 0:40:54but I'm not certain.
0:40:54 > 0:40:57Joan Hickson is the right answer.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59That's what Kevin does.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02All right, Eggheads, you can take the contest with this question.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04In 1906,
0:41:04 > 0:41:09the term muckraker for a journalist who exposes the ills of society was
0:41:09 > 0:41:11popularised by which US President?
0:41:11 > 0:41:13- Teddy Roosevelt.- 1906.
0:41:13 > 0:41:171906, Teddy Roosevelt was... Theodore Roosevelt was president.
0:41:17 > 0:41:20- Let's just go for... - I think it is, actually.
0:41:20 > 0:41:23You think it's Theodore Roosevelt there, because...
0:41:23 > 0:41:26I think he's the one who came up with it.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28And it's the right time.
0:41:28 > 0:41:29Right in the middle of his office.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32Because, obviously, he came in in 1901
0:41:32 > 0:41:34after the assassination, didn't he?
0:41:34 > 0:41:36And then it was Taft, wasn't it, after that?
0:41:36 > 0:41:38- Is that right?- From 1909, yeah.
0:41:38 > 0:41:42- So, Roosevelt, it's Theodore Roosevelt in terms of the dates.- Yeah.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44So, are you happy with that?
0:41:44 > 0:41:45- Yep.- Theodore Roosevelt?
0:41:45 > 0:41:49- Yes.- We're going to go for Theodore Roosevelt, please.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52If you've got this right, the contest is over.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55We call it sudden death, it hasn't been very sudden, has it?
0:41:55 > 0:41:58- No.- It's been long and painful.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01If you've got this right, the contest is over. Sudden death.
0:42:01 > 0:42:05In 1906, the term muckraker was coined by Theodore Roosevelt.
0:42:05 > 0:42:10You're right. We say congratulations Eggheads, you have won!
0:42:10 > 0:42:11Oh, wow!
0:42:14 > 0:42:19Well, undoubtedly the best-performing celebrity finalists of all time
0:42:19 > 0:42:23without any question and usually, well, often, let's say,
0:42:23 > 0:42:25the Eggheads would trip before then.
0:42:25 > 0:42:29At some point, you'd have a problem.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31You've had problems in the first three sometimes,
0:42:31 > 0:42:32so you were unlucky
0:42:32 > 0:42:35that you pushed and pushed and they didn't, at some point, topple,
0:42:35 > 0:42:38- but you played so well there. - Thank you.- Thank you.
0:42:38 > 0:42:39- I hope you enjoyed it. - We still lost!
0:42:39 > 0:42:41No, but in a way, you won, in a funny sort of way.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43A funny sort of way, yes!
0:42:43 > 0:42:47- Very funny!- That's the T&Cs coming out, though, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50OK. Commiserations. Oh, my goodness, I can feel it here.
0:42:50 > 0:42:53Tease and Seize have lost, but not really.
0:42:53 > 0:42:56They did so well. The Eggheads have, in the end,
0:42:56 > 0:42:59vanquished the challengers, done what comes naturally.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Barely any questions wrong from you, Eggheads,
0:43:01 > 0:43:05and you reign supreme over celebrity quiz land still.
0:43:05 > 0:43:07I does mean you don't win the £5,000,
0:43:07 > 0:43:10so the money rolls over to our next celebrity show.
0:43:10 > 0:43:11Eggheads, congratulations.
0:43:11 > 0:43:14I wonder if you will be taken down by one of these celebs teams?
0:43:14 > 0:43:16Who knows? Join us next time to see
0:43:16 > 0:43:18if a new team of challengers can do it.
0:43:18 > 0:43:19They will be trying very hard.
0:43:19 > 0:43:22Maybe not as hard as this team, who were amazing.
0:43:22 > 0:43:26£6,000 will be there to play for. Until then, goodbye.
