These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
Together they make up the Eggheads, | 0:00:10 | 0:00:11 | |
arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
The question is - can they be beaten? | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
Welcome to a special celebrity edition of Eggheads, | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
the show where a team of five quiz challengers pit their wits | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:32 | |
They are the Eggheads. Here you all are in satellite around Beth! | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
-ALL: Yes. -In that amazing red, Beth! | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
Yeah, the Phobos and Deimos to my Mars. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
Exactly, there you are in the centre. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
And challenging the quizzing prowess of the Eggheads today are... | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
Now, not wanting to put pressure on them, | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
but this team is striving to uphold the quizzing reputation of the BBC's | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
Children's Department, in particular two stalwarts of the schedules, | 0:00:51 | 0:00:56 | |
Blue Peter and Newsround - and they have promised not to utter | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
the words, "That's a bit before my time, Jeremy." | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
Let's meet them. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
Hello, I'm Katie Thistleton. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:04 | |
I'm a presenter and author, and if you're a child you'll probably | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
know me from the bits in between the shows on CBBC, | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
and I occasionally do some presenting on BBC Radio 1 as well. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:14 | |
Hi, my name's Radzi Chingyanganya, and I'm very proud to say that I'm | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
a Blue Peter presenter, and when I'm not doing that | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
I'm either presenting in sport or Songs Of Praise. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
Hello, my name is Hayley Hassall. If you're under the age of 12, | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
you probably know me from Newsround on CBBC. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
Otherwise you may have seen me | 0:01:28 | 0:01:29 | |
reporting for Panorama or The One Show. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
Hello, I'm Martin Dougan, and I'm a children's BBC presenter. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:35 | |
You'll see me on programmes like Newsround and The Let's Go Club. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
Hi, I'm Ayshah Tull. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
You might know me from Newsround, I'm one of the presenters. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
If I'm not doing that then I'm out travelling or playing netball. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:47 | |
So, Katie and team, hello. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:48 | |
-Hello. -Hi. -Hi! -Good to see you. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
Katie, you're leading a serious team here, I can see. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
Yeah, I don't really know how that happened. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
I don't feel like I'm the leader. But, yeah... | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
-You are now. -Yeah, you are. -As the skipper, | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
have you got some kind of battle plan or something like that? | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
Erm, no, I think I know a tiny, tiny bit about everything, | 0:02:01 | 0:02:05 | |
and not a lot about anything. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:06 | |
Erm, I would quite like to do music, I think, | 0:02:06 | 0:02:08 | |
but we'll have to fight over that one. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
I think we all sort of want music and film and TV, | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
and none of the others, basically, so we're going to have to fight. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
Yeah, cos I'm thinking, Radzi, | 0:02:15 | 0:02:16 | |
that some of the stuff that you guys will be very good at, | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
which is probably music in the last ten years, | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
is a bit exposing for them, actually. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
Yeah, I think we've got a lot of specialist knowledge, | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
but that's around a very, very small gamut of information, | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
so if that comes up I think we're going to smash it, | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
but we're not feeling too confident, to be honest. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
But good early use of the word "gamut", that's good. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
He always comes up with random words like that! | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
Radzi, have you watched the show before? | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
Do you know what you're dealing with here? | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
Absolutely, and I'm looking over at Kevin because this man is the | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
greatest quizzer on the planet, and so we're going to take him on! | 0:02:48 | 0:02:52 | |
Radzi really wants to take on Kevin because he's a fan of the show! | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
Radzi's probably the most competitive out of all of us, | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
he's the sporty one, he likes a challenge, | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
so I think you want to take on Kevin, don't you? | 0:02:59 | 0:03:00 | |
You've got to take on the greatest. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
It's like, if I'm going to do the 100 metres, I'll take on Usain Bolt! | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
-Hayley, are you in your comfort zone here or outside it? -Not at all. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
I'm comfortable with being at a desk, | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
that is about as far as I am comfortable with. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
-The previous celebs have all lost, so I think that's probably good. -Oh! | 0:03:14 | 0:03:18 | |
-Oh, gosh. -I'm just thinking that's good cos it means, you know, | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
you're not coming off the back of four or five wins or something. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
-Pressure's off. -I see, yep, yep, I'm with you. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
-Am I helping here or not? -No, no, not at all, keep trying. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
-Erm, Martin, you often work in this building, don't you, actually? -I do. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
So you know... So have you been into the Eggheads zone before? | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
No, this is the first time, this is a first for me. I'm really excited. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
Watch it on the TV all the time! | 0:03:38 | 0:03:40 | |
-A lot of people say often their parents watch it... -Yeah, that's... | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
I called my mum the other day, | 0:03:43 | 0:03:44 | |
and she said, "Get off the phone, the Eggheads are on," | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
and I think, "Wait, that's my show!" | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
I'm not even allowed to interrupt my mother when she's watching it. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:51 | |
Well, I'm expecting a phone call from my mum any minute now. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:55 | |
-Ayshah, what about you? Anything that stands out? -There is... | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
Like, no, nothing, really. | 0:03:58 | 0:03:59 | |
Like, music and TV you'd think that I'd be instinctively quite | 0:03:59 | 0:04:03 | |
good at, and like newsy stuff within the last ten years, | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
cos I've worked in it, but then nothing else! | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
I'm petrified, I'm really nervous. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
We had a thing with the last team where there was | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
a big row about politics, wasn't there? | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
They hadn't quite got it covered. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:16 | |
We won't start that argument now but I'm just thinking, Ayshah, | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
that would probably be your thing cos you love news, don't you? | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
Yeah, I absolutely love news and all of the kind of things that | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
I've done on Newsround have been the US elections or things like | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
that, so that should be my bag, but you never know. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
All right, well, it's a great team, thank you so much for coming in, | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
it's great to see you, very exciting for us, actually. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
challengers' chosen charity. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:40 | |
However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
rolls over to the next show. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
So, Big Kids, the Eggheads have indeed won the last five games | 0:04:44 | 0:04:47 | |
against the celebrities, | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
which sets you up in some ways rather nicely, looking on the bright | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
-side here, cos it means they've built up a jackpot of £6,000... -Wow! | 0:04:53 | 0:04:57 | |
..which you can steal from them by defeating them today. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
-Simple as that. Are you ready to try? -Yes. -Yeah. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
I think we're all going to have to | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
make personal donations to our charity after this. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
I don't think we're going to be getting that money. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Sport. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
-Ooh... -So, you need to choose one of yourselves to play, | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
and then you play against either Judith, Kevin, Beth, Chris or Dave. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:18 | |
-OK, well, I think, did we say Radzi or Martin for this? -Radzi, Martin. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
Radzi, I think perhaps you're going to take this on. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
-Aye, Radz, I think you've got it. -I'm up for this, yeah, bring it on. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
-I'll take this on, please, Jeremy. -Radzi, straight into the breach, OK. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
Well, I think we do know who you're going to pick, do we? | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
-Yeah, we know already. -It's going to be the great man. Kevin, please. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
I love that you love the show, it's brilliant. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
Radzi from the Big Kids is going to take on the grand master, | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
as we call him, Kevin from the Eggheads, on Sport. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
What a treat for us all. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:42 | |
To ensure there's no conferring please take your positions now in | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
the legendary question room. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
-Well, I'm hoping you still enjoy Blue Peter, Radzi. -Absolutely. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:52 | |
And I was looking up, you are the 37th presenter, | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
so it's an amazing lineage, isn't it, in broadcasting? | 0:05:54 | 0:05:58 | |
I grew up absolutely loving the show | 0:05:58 | 0:06:00 | |
and got my first badge when I was ten years old. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:02 | |
To be on the show, then, 15 years later, is genuinely a privilege. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
And the badges are still sought after, aren't they? | 0:06:05 | 0:06:07 | |
The badges are still sought after. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
There are now a few more colours - you can have a gold, | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
a silver, a purple, a sport, a green, and a blue one, but, | 0:06:11 | 0:06:15 | |
yeah, still as sought after as ever. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:17 | |
Cos we had a question the other day about Blue Peter, didn't we, | 0:06:17 | 0:06:20 | |
and it was which presenter used the phrase, "Get down, Shep"? | 0:06:20 | 0:06:24 | |
Oh, John Noakes, yeah! | 0:06:24 | 0:06:25 | |
Yeah, brilliant, who was born about | 0:06:25 | 0:06:27 | |
probably 100 years before you, but, erm... | 0:06:27 | 0:06:29 | |
Is that one of the questions, Jeremy, cos in which case, game on! | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
JEREMY LAUGHS | 0:06:32 | 0:06:34 | |
I know you love sport, and karate in particular? | 0:06:34 | 0:06:38 | |
Yeah, I used to do karate at national level, | 0:06:38 | 0:06:41 | |
absolutely love sport. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:42 | |
I'd say my specialist area, exposing myself early doors, | 0:06:42 | 0:06:45 | |
is probably athletics, so if something about that comes up | 0:06:45 | 0:06:48 | |
I'll be disappointed if I don't get it right, | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
but there are flaws and holes in my knowledge, so fingers crossed. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:55 | |
Sport, Radzi, good luck here, really rooting for you. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
-Do you want to go first or second? -Erm, I'll go first, please. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:02 | |
And here we go. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:07 | |
Which tennis Grand Slam tournament is played on a clay surface? | 0:07:07 | 0:07:11 | |
So I know the US and the Australian Open are played on hard courts, | 0:07:16 | 0:07:22 | |
Wimbledon's grass, so the French, which I think is called the | 0:07:22 | 0:07:27 | |
Ronald Garros, is played on clay, so I'll go with the French Open please. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:33 | |
Er, it would be easy to go wrong on this one and you haven't, | 0:07:33 | 0:07:36 | |
it's French Open, well done. Good stuff, Radzi. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
OK, Kevin, over to you. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:40 | |
How many other people were in his boat when the rower | 0:07:40 | 0:07:42 | |
Steve Redgrave won the fifth Olympic gold medal of his career? | 0:07:42 | 0:07:46 | |
Right, so that's, obviously being the fifth, that's, erm, | 0:07:49 | 0:07:51 | |
the sort of end of his run there, | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
and by that stage he was part of a pair, so the answer would be one. | 0:07:54 | 0:08:00 | |
-No, Kevin. -Mm? -No. Have I misunderstood something here? | 0:08:00 | 0:08:04 | |
Well, I think you've misrecalled something. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
Dave was shaking his head. Dave? | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
Yeah, well, the fifth one was in 2000 in Sydney, | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
and he was with three other people. It was the coxless fours. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:15 | |
-It's the coxless fours... -Ah, OK. -..Kevin, 2000 in Sydney. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
-OK, misunderstood. -Game on, Radzi! -Yeah. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:21 | |
JEREMY LAUGHS | 0:08:21 | 0:08:23 | |
I've gone 1-0 up, | 0:08:23 | 0:08:24 | |
and if that's all I get I'll take it at this point, Jeremy. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
Listen, get the next two right, you knock out Kevin, | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
and then all kinds of things can happen. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
They could go down like a pack of cards. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
Here's your question. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
Which of these golfers, born in 1955, spent a total of 331 weeks | 0:08:37 | 0:08:42 | |
as the world's number one ranked male golfer in the 1980s and '90s? | 0:08:42 | 0:08:48 | |
So golf isn't one of my areas of expertise, it has to be said. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:55 | |
It's not Tiger Woods because he was late '90s, early noughties, | 0:08:55 | 0:09:01 | |
which leaves me with Greg and Jack. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:04 | |
You mentioned two decades, I think it's going to have to be a great. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:09 | |
So I'm going to go, with hesitation, with Jack Nicklaus. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
Let's see, Kevin, do you know the birth year of Jack Nicklaus? | 0:09:12 | 0:09:17 | |
Erm, 1940, I think. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
-And Greg Norman? -Well, I think it would be '55, which you mentioned. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:23 | |
Yeah, it's Greg Norman. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:24 | |
Sorry, you got it wrong. We go to Kevin. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
The Nigerian-born Herbie Hide is a former world champion in | 0:09:27 | 0:09:32 | |
which sport? | 0:09:32 | 0:09:34 | |
Er, he, I think he... was based in East Anglia | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
if I remember correctly. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:42 | |
Anyway, he was a boxer. He was a heavyweight boxer. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:46 | |
Boxing is quite right. So, let's see, level after two. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
Oh, Radzi, that Greg Norman question! | 0:09:49 | 0:09:53 | |
Is golf not your thing? | 0:09:53 | 0:09:54 | |
It really isn't my thing, and disappointingly, | 0:09:54 | 0:09:57 | |
I'd have known the rowing and boxing, but that's the way it goes. | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
Yeah, all right, well, listen, we're third question now. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
You're level with Kevin, and here it is. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:04 | |
Lucy Bronze, who featured on the 12-person short list for | 0:10:04 | 0:10:08 | |
the 2015 BBC Sports Personality of the Year award, | 0:10:08 | 0:10:12 | |
is a famous name in which sport? | 0:10:12 | 0:10:15 | |
It's amazing being here. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
All of a sudden, all knowledge just escapes the brain. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
I know it's not athletics. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:26 | |
She doesn't ring any bells in cycling. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:28 | |
I'm pretty sure the answer's football. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
If I was sat at home in my armchair, I'd be 99% it's football, | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
so I'm going to go football. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:36 | |
I love the way you just put yourself in | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
a different place there to focus the mind. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
Football's right, Radzi. Well done. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
-Yay! -Really good. That's a very tough question. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
Get this wrong, Kevin, and you will have been knocked out. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:48 | |
In 2014, which rugby league player became the first man to be | 0:10:48 | 0:10:52 | |
sent off in a Super League Grand Final? | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
No, that one's got me, I'm afraid. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
Rugby league is not a...particular speciality. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:07 | |
I can't even remember who was in that final, unfortunately. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
I honestly don't know, | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
so I'm going to go down the middle with Ben Flower. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
-Dave? -Very happy with that. Yeah, it was Ben Flower. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
He got sent off after a rush of blood to the head and | 0:11:19 | 0:11:23 | |
he played for Wigan Warriors against St Helens Saints, it's Ben Flower. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:27 | |
Wigan Warriors against St Helens Saints, Ben Flower is the | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
right answer, Kevin. Well done. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:33 | |
After three questions, the scores are level. Oh, Radzi! | 0:11:33 | 0:11:36 | |
-You ran him so close there! -I had him on the ropes, but I'm happy. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:40 | |
-I'll be honest, I'm happy. -Well, look, it's poised now. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
Sudden death, we go to. Gets a bit harder. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
I don't give you alternatives. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
In 2016, England's one day international cricket captain | 0:11:48 | 0:11:53 | |
Eoin Morgan made the controversial decision not to take part in | 0:11:53 | 0:11:57 | |
his team's tour of which Asian country? | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
Cricket is not an area of knowledge for me. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:03 | |
Probably that and golf are my two worst, | 0:12:03 | 0:12:06 | |
so I'm now trying to think where the one day internationals would | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
even happen at and India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, | 0:12:09 | 0:12:14 | |
are ringing a bell, Sri Lanka maybe. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:15 | |
Um... | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
This is just an absolute punt. But I'm going to go for... | 0:12:17 | 0:12:22 | |
..India. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:27 | |
-Kevin, do you know? -I think it's Bangladesh. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
Bangladesh is the answer. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:31 | |
-OK. -For security reasons. Kevin, to take the round. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:34 | |
From 2004-2008, which male tennis star set a record | 0:12:34 | 0:12:39 | |
of 237 consecutive weeks as the world's number one ranked player? | 0:12:39 | 0:12:45 | |
Well, if it's between 2004 and 2008, it towards the end of that period | 0:12:45 | 0:12:51 | |
that Rafa Nadal started to come in and contest it really, | 0:12:51 | 0:12:56 | |
but from 2004 onwards, and I think he won his first Grand Slam | 0:12:56 | 0:13:01 | |
maybe in 2003, I think it would have been Roger Federer. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:04 | |
So, Roger Federer. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:06 | |
For the round. Roger Federer is the right answer. Well done, Kevin. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
Sorry, Radzi. Played well there. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
-I enjoyed it. -We got a couple of your blind spots there, didn't we? | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
Absolutely. That's what this game's all about though. I took on the great man and I lost, | 0:13:14 | 0:13:18 | |
-but hopefully I gave him a good fight. -That's very sporting of you. Well done. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:22 | |
Come back and we will play round two. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
So, a little bit of early trouble for our celebs. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
The Big Kids have lost one brain from the final round. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
They've lost Radzi. The Eggheads are all sitting there, a little bit too smug, I think. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:35 | |
-The next subject is Geography. -Oh! -Who's the traveller? -Oh, no! | 0:13:35 | 0:13:39 | |
Ayshah, we said you'd take this one for the team! | 0:13:39 | 0:13:42 | |
-This is my worst nightmare. -Ayshah, is it you? | 0:13:42 | 0:13:44 | |
-It is, unfortunately, me! I'm going to have to. -You or Martin. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:48 | |
You've got a geography degree, haven't you? | 0:13:48 | 0:13:50 | |
I do have a geography degree. That doesn't necessarily help. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
And in fact, it makes it more embarrassing if I get it wrong. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:56 | |
I can feel my geography teacher going, "Are you serious?!" | 0:13:56 | 0:13:58 | |
Yes, I know what you mean cos that does put the pressure on, | 0:13:58 | 0:14:01 | |
but anyway, if it's you, do you want to choose somebody? | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
Anyone but Kevin. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
-I choose Judith. -You may. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:08 | |
-I haven't done Geography for ages. -You like a little jaunt. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:12 | |
Yes, I like a little jaunt! | 0:14:12 | 0:14:14 | |
That's made me feel worse for my decision, but, yeah. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:17 | |
Ayshah, from Big Kids, playing Judith from the Eggheads, on Geography. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:21 | |
Let's see what happens. Please take your positions. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:23 | |
Well, Ayshah, I've read about how you sort of fell into journalism. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:28 | |
You went into a newsroom and you just thought - this is it! | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
I know. I kind of had that flash moment of like - oh, wait! | 0:14:31 | 0:14:34 | |
I really like doing this. And you can actually do it as a job. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:37 | |
And from that moment on, I was like, that's what I'm going to do! | 0:14:37 | 0:14:40 | |
I don't care how. I've just got to do it. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:42 | |
-And was that a school trip then? -It was a school trip. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:46 | |
It was like a media trip and we just went down on a day and did | 0:14:46 | 0:14:50 | |
our own kind of newspaper front page and it was just absolutely amazing. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:56 | |
And I remember I was so competitive. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
We were the first ones who got our paper done in the day and I | 0:14:58 | 0:15:02 | |
tell you how long ago this was - it was when we had BBC Choice | 0:15:02 | 0:15:05 | |
and not BBC Three and now BBC Three's online. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:08 | |
So that was ages ago. But it was loads of fun. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:11 | |
You do Newsround now, but you've done, I'm trying to work out how to | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
phrase this so I'm not pejorative to either - you started on | 0:15:14 | 0:15:18 | |
-5 Live before Newsround. -I call it adult news, | 0:15:18 | 0:15:21 | |
and I don't see there's anything wrong with that. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:23 | |
So I started on 5 Live and I also worked at Sky News as well, | 0:15:23 | 0:15:28 | |
but Jeremy, you might not remember this, | 0:15:28 | 0:15:30 | |
I used to be a researcher on your programme at Radio 2. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:34 | |
I did like a two week stint where one of the programmes | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
I suggested was Are You Scared Of Salad? | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
And it was because an E.coli scare or something like that and we got | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
-a greengrocer on. It was really fun. -I very much remember and I just didn't know whether I should | 0:15:43 | 0:15:47 | |
mention it or not because sometimes it's a scarring experience, the Radio 2 thing for people. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:52 | |
-But you got over it OK, did you? -I did. No, I loved it! | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
-I loved Radio 2. -And did we do the salad story, or not? -We did actually do the story. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:59 | |
-It was like the second one and I just felt really proud that... -That's brilliant! | 0:15:59 | 0:16:03 | |
I'm so chuffed to hear that. Good luck in this round, Ayshah. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:06 | |
Geography. We'll pass over your degree in geography. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:09 | |
I don't want to put the pressure on you. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:11 | |
-Do you want to go first or second? -I'll go first. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:14 | |
And here we go. Good luck against Judith. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
Exmoor National Park stretches from Somerset into which other county? | 0:16:20 | 0:16:24 | |
It's like UK geography is complete blind spot to me. This is awful. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:32 | |
Now, down south, it's Devon and Cornwall, I would have thought, | 0:16:33 | 0:16:38 | |
and then I'm not sure about West Sussex and Suffolk. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:42 | |
Um, this is where being a Londoner really doesn't help, | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
in not knowing much outside the M25. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
It's going to have to be a complete guess. And I'll say West Sussex. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:53 | |
OK, let's just check with your colleagues here. Does anyone know? | 0:16:53 | 0:16:57 | |
None of you lives in the park or anything like that? | 0:16:57 | 0:16:59 | |
No. That was our guess. That was our guess as well. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:03 | |
But we weren't really basing on... | 0:17:03 | 0:17:04 | |
They would have gone West Sussex as well. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
-It's Devon. -Oh, how annoying! | 0:17:09 | 0:17:11 | |
-I know! -How annoying! -I'm so annoyed with Devon now. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
OK, Judith, your question. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:16 | |
Which body of water separates Hampshire from the Isle of Wight? | 0:17:16 | 0:17:21 | |
That is the Solent. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
It is the Solent, Judith. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
I thought you were going to slip up on that. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:32 | |
Ayshah, which of these volcanoes is on an Italian island? | 0:17:32 | 0:17:36 | |
Ayshah, is it...? | 0:17:36 | 0:17:38 | |
Um, I would have thought Hekla doesn't necessarily sound Italian. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:48 | |
My instinct was Stromboli, but I'm not sure. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:53 | |
I'm going to go with Stromboli. | 0:17:56 | 0:18:00 | |
I'm so glad you did. Stromboli is the right answer. Well done. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:03 | |
That's good. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:05 | |
OK, Judith. Melbourne is the capital of which Australian state? | 0:18:05 | 0:18:09 | |
I'm so bad... Well, it's definitely not Tasmania cos that's Hobart. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:18 | |
I'm really, really bad at Australian geography. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:22 | |
Like Lisa, who hates it too. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:25 | |
Um, well, Melbourne was a great favourite of Queen Victoria. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:30 | |
I think I'm going to say Victoria. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
-On the basis that Queen Victoria liked Melbourne? -Yes. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:38 | |
That's good enough for me. Victoria's right. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:41 | |
-Oh, thank goodness for that! -Ah! | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
-I thought we were about to go level there, Ayshah. -I was so excited. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:47 | |
-I know. -I thought, maybe! | 0:18:47 | 0:18:49 | |
I know. All right. Don't worry. She's ahead. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
You can pull back with this question. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:54 | |
Which of these countries is the smallest by area? | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
So the smallest by area. | 0:18:57 | 0:18:59 | |
I would have thought Sudan's quite big by area, from what I know. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:08 | |
Africa. Spain, middley. | 0:19:08 | 0:19:11 | |
South Korea in Asia. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:15 | |
Ah, it's between Spain and South Korea really, I think. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
Been to Spain. Travelling across from Seville | 0:19:21 | 0:19:25 | |
to like Barcelona takes a little while. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:28 | |
-I'm going to say South Korea. -Radzi, do you like that? | 0:19:28 | 0:19:33 | |
-I think so. -Radzi likes it and it's right. South Korea is correct. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:37 | |
-Yes! -Good! | 0:19:37 | 0:19:38 | |
Two out of three, well done. OK, Judith. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:42 | |
If you get this wrong, Judith, we go to sudden death. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
The town of Stroud is in which English county? | 0:19:45 | 0:19:48 | |
The dreaded Devon again. Um, it's in Gloucestershire. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |
My daughter-in-law lives in it. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
In Gloucestershire or Stroud? | 0:19:59 | 0:20:01 | |
-In Stroud. -She lives in Stroud? -Yes. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
Gosh! That is so annoying! | 0:20:03 | 0:20:06 | |
That's really annoying! | 0:20:06 | 0:20:09 | |
So there's no doubt here, is there? | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
I can't even do any tension moment here. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:14 | |
Gloucestershire's the right answer, Judith. Well done. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:17 | |
-You're in the final round. Sorry, Ayshah, you played well. -Never mind. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:21 | |
It's funny cos in a way, the easiest one was the first one and you | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
got the two harder ones right, so well done. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:26 | |
Come back to us, rejoin your teams. We'll play Round Three. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
OK, as it stands, the Big Kids have lost two brains from the | 0:20:31 | 0:20:34 | |
final round, the Eggheads have not lost any, so now's the time. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:37 | |
This is the moment for the comeback now. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
-Come on! -Come on, guys! The next subject for you is Science. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
-I said I'd take one for the team with science. -OK, Katie. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
But I'm not basing that on anything. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
Hayley, do you think you'd be better than me on science? | 0:20:48 | 0:20:51 | |
No, of course not! You're wonderful! | 0:20:51 | 0:20:53 | |
-I don't know anything about science, but none of us do. -OK. | 0:20:53 | 0:20:56 | |
So you've had a bit of battle planning. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
So, Katie, the team captain, goes into the breach, | 0:20:58 | 0:21:01 | |
against which Egghead? And it can be any of the three on the left there. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
Dave and I are both from the same neck of the woods, | 0:21:04 | 0:21:06 | |
-so I was thinking we could have a bit of a Manchester off. -Yeah. -Mancunian versus Mancunian. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:11 | |
-Is it City - United? Is it like that? -United. What about you, Dave? | 0:21:11 | 0:21:15 | |
-Red. We're all Reds in Manchester! -We're all Red! We're all friends here! -So we're going to be OK. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:19 | |
-So, yeah, Dave? -I'll go for Dave. -All right, good. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
Katie from the Big Kids, versus Dave, Tremendous Knowledge Dave, | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
as we call him, from the Eggheads. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions. | 0:21:27 | 0:21:30 | |
-So, how is it at CBBC? -Wonderful. It's wonderful. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
It's the best job in the world. It's the best place in the world. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
We laugh from the start of the day until the end of the day. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
And it's one of those classic BBC stories, isn't it, where you start | 0:21:39 | 0:21:42 | |
as - was it the secretary to the Controller or something like that? | 0:21:42 | 0:21:46 | |
Yes. Yeah, it was, which I didn't plan. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:49 | |
I didn't plan to sort of be the secretary to the Controller | 0:21:49 | 0:21:52 | |
and then try and worm my way in. I trained as a journalist. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:55 | |
I wanted to be a writer, so I was wanting to write scripts for TV and work behind the | 0:21:55 | 0:21:59 | |
scenes and then they needed a girl presenter to go and join | 0:21:59 | 0:22:02 | |
everybody and all the boys who were already existing presenters, | 0:22:02 | 0:22:05 | |
and yeah, I was just sort of offered the job. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:08 | |
And it was a little bit terrifying for the first couple of years. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
Yeah, but to go from I suppose the production side to on-screen is | 0:22:11 | 0:22:16 | |
-a great thing. -Yeah, it is actually. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:17 | |
It's really helpful because you know how things work, | 0:22:17 | 0:22:20 | |
but I think everyone was just a bit surprised. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
They were like - why is that girl from the office now on the telly?! It was a bit strange. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:26 | |
All right, good luck on science, Katie. You can choose whether yo go first or second. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
-Let's hope you can turn it around here. -I'll go second and see how that works out for me. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:34 | |
Dave, your first question. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:39 | |
What common name is given to the sac that encloses the human heart? | 0:22:39 | 0:22:44 | |
Sac is S-A-C. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:45 | |
That's the pericardium. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:52 | |
It is the pericardium. All right. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
-Katie. -I'm gutted I didn't go first. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:58 | |
Come on. We can do this. | 0:22:58 | 0:22:59 | |
For what does the first S stand in the name of the respiratory | 0:22:59 | 0:23:04 | |
illness known as SARS? | 0:23:04 | 0:23:06 | |
S-A-R-S. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:07 | |
Respiratory illness. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:13 | |
Well, I want to say severe. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:16 | |
I feel like that's the obvious one to go for. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:20 | |
I'm trying to think about a respiratory illness and if | 0:23:20 | 0:23:22 | |
scale or social would be somehow related to that. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
I'm going to go with my gut instinct and say severe. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
OK, let's check with Beth cos she will know this. Beth? | 0:23:30 | 0:23:32 | |
Yes, it is severe. It stands for severe acute respiratory syndrome. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:36 | |
Severe acute respiratory syndrome, says Beth. Well done, Katie. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:40 | |
-Thank you. -OK, Dave, your question. Second question. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:44 | |
"I have not failed 10,000 times. | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
"I have successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work," | 0:23:46 | 0:23:50 | |
is a quote attributed to which inventor? | 0:23:50 | 0:23:53 | |
I'm not particularly sure about this, | 0:23:57 | 0:24:00 | |
but I've not heard of that from James Dyson. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:04 | |
I'm going to discount Henry Ford and go for Thomas Edison. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:07 | |
And you're right. Well done. Thomas Edison. | 0:24:08 | 0:24:11 | |
Katie, here's your question. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
Which breed of dog, famous for having loose wrinkly skin, | 0:24:13 | 0:24:17 | |
has a name from the Chinese for sand skin? | 0:24:17 | 0:24:20 | |
Hm, I know a shar pei does have very loose, wrinkly skin. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:31 | |
I think a chow, chow-chow has more sort of fluffy fur. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:36 | |
I'm not really sure about saluki, | 0:24:36 | 0:24:39 | |
although they all sound like they could be right. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:42 | |
I think I'm going to go with shar pei. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:44 | |
Your dog knowledge has stood you in good stead. Shar pei is right. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:47 | |
-Well done. Two out of two. -Thank you. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:49 | |
Dave, the British doctor Sir Ronald Ross received the Nobel Prize | 0:24:49 | 0:24:53 | |
in 1902 for his work on which disease? | 0:24:53 | 0:24:57 | |
So, it's Sir Ronald Ross. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:00 | |
Always get these confused, but I'm going to go, in this case, | 0:25:03 | 0:25:07 | |
for malaria, please. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:09 | |
Malaria is quite right. OK. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:11 | |
3-2, cos you let him go first, Katie. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:14 | |
So the pressure's on a little bit. | 0:25:14 | 0:25:17 | |
You need this right to stay in. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:19 | |
Cytology is the scientific study of what? | 0:25:19 | 0:25:22 | |
I don't really know. Could be any. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:28 | |
-I'm going to just go for cells, please. -Do you like that, team-mates? | 0:25:28 | 0:25:32 | |
-Yes! -They like it, you're right. Well done! | 0:25:32 | 0:25:35 | |
-Three out of three for you both. -Yes! | 0:25:35 | 0:25:37 | |
-Right, OK, Dave, we go to sudden death. You go first. -Yeah. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:41 | |
And it gets a bit harder. | 0:25:41 | 0:25:42 | |
There are two elements in the periodic table whose names | 0:25:42 | 0:25:45 | |
begin and end with the letter N. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:49 | |
Neon and which other? | 0:25:49 | 0:25:51 | |
-Begin and end with the letter N? -N. -Nitrogen. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:54 | |
Nitrogen is quite right, Dave. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:58 | |
Katie, sudden death. | 0:25:58 | 0:26:00 | |
The subfamily of birds called Picinae, known for their loud | 0:26:02 | 0:26:06 | |
drumming, are more commonly known by what name in Britain? | 0:26:06 | 0:26:11 | |
A woodpecker? | 0:26:11 | 0:26:12 | |
-Woodpecker's right! -Yes! | 0:26:12 | 0:26:14 | |
Great! | 0:26:14 | 0:26:16 | |
OK, sudden death. Equal. Back to you, Dave. | 0:26:16 | 0:26:19 | |
Which computer scientist and entrepreneur, | 0:26:19 | 0:26:21 | |
born in March 1973, co-founded Google with Sergey Brin? | 0:26:21 | 0:26:27 | |
Larry Page. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
Yes, Larry Page it is. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:33 | |
-OK, so Dave isn't really getting many wrong, Katie. -No. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:36 | |
Neither are you. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:38 | |
The Swedish chemist Alfred Nobel, | 0:26:38 | 0:26:41 | |
after whom the Nobel Prizes are named, lived during which century? | 0:26:41 | 0:26:46 | |
I'm going to go... | 0:26:46 | 0:26:49 | |
..19th? | 0:26:49 | 0:26:51 | |
-19th...? -Yes. | 0:26:51 | 0:26:53 | |
-..is correct. -Oh, wow! | 0:26:53 | 0:26:55 | |
And, Dave, we go back to you. What is the atomic number of Oxygen? | 0:26:55 | 0:26:59 | |
Oh, I could get this wrong. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:03 | |
It's one of two. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:06 | |
No, I'm not going to change my mind. Eight. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
Eight is right. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:11 | |
So, Dave has got it right. It's sudden death we're on. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:14 | |
Katie, in 2016 which country launched the spacecraft | 0:27:14 | 0:27:19 | |
Hitomi to observe X-rays in space? | 0:27:19 | 0:27:22 | |
It's H-I-T-O-M-I. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:24 | |
H-I-T-O-M-I. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
Oh, this is so recent! I feel like I should know this. Hitomi. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:33 | |
Is it Russia? | 0:27:33 | 0:27:35 | |
Is that your answer? | 0:27:35 | 0:27:37 | |
-Yes. -Hitomi is Japan. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:39 | |
Oh, I was going to say Japan! | 0:27:39 | 0:27:41 | |
It sounds Japanese, but I thought, no, Russia! | 0:27:41 | 0:27:43 | |
They seem to have done more space stuff recently. | 0:27:43 | 0:27:46 | |
-Hitomi is the Japanese spacecraft. -Oh, I was going to say Japan! | 0:27:46 | 0:27:50 | |
-I'm gutted! -Oh, Katie! | 0:27:50 | 0:27:53 | |
Oh, Dave is through to the final round, but well done. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:55 | |
-You got so many questions right in that round. -Thank you. -Well played. | 0:27:55 | 0:27:58 | |
You've done really well. Beaten by our Egghead, so as a result, not in the final. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:02 | |
It's looking difficult for the challengers but it's certainly not impossible. | 0:28:02 | 0:28:06 | |
One more round to play. Please return to us. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:08 | |
OK, Big Kids have lost a third brain now from the final round. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:14 | |
The Eggheads are still all there. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:15 | |
-Shells intact! The next subject is Film and TV. -Here we go. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:19 | |
-Oh, nice one. -Now we're talking. -Hang on. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:21 | |
So, we're both quite good at this. But I'm really bad at general knowledge, | 0:28:21 | 0:28:25 | |
-so shall we think tactically? -Yeah. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:28 | |
How good are you at general knowledge? | 0:28:28 | 0:28:30 | |
Probably just as good as anybody else at this table. | 0:28:30 | 0:28:33 | |
-Do you want me to go? -Just win it for me. -I'll go. I'll take the Film. | 0:28:33 | 0:28:37 | |
-I'll take Film and TV. -OK, Martin. | 0:28:37 | 0:28:40 | |
Newsround presenter. Against which Egghead? | 0:28:40 | 0:28:43 | |
-And you can have Chris or Beth. -I'll have Chris, please. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:46 | |
OK, so Martin from the Big Kids, taking on Chris from the Eggheads. Film and TV the subject. | 0:28:46 | 0:28:51 | |
For the last time, please go to the question room. | 0:28:51 | 0:28:55 | |
So you've been watching the team going in to bat here, Martin. | 0:28:55 | 0:28:58 | |
What's been going through your mind? | 0:28:58 | 0:29:00 | |
I'm petrified. We've been really, really close. | 0:29:00 | 0:29:04 | |
Everyone's done really well when it's come to the head-to-heads, it's | 0:29:04 | 0:29:07 | |
just been just that little bit of knowledge that we're missing, | 0:29:07 | 0:29:11 | |
so I'm hoping... I really want to win. I'm getting quite competitive. | 0:29:11 | 0:29:15 | |
And it was between you and Radzi on Sport because I know you love | 0:29:15 | 0:29:17 | |
-your sport. -Yeah, I do. Really love my sport. | 0:29:17 | 0:29:20 | |
Ever since I was young, I've always played sport and always took an interest. | 0:29:20 | 0:29:24 | |
It's like my number one sort of passion and hobby, I would say. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:27 | |
And I suppose we also discovered you when you were captain of | 0:29:27 | 0:29:30 | |
-Scotland's wheelchair basketball team. -That's right. | 0:29:30 | 0:29:33 | |
I was captain of Scotland's basketball team for about | 0:29:33 | 0:29:37 | |
three years. It was amazing. Really, really good and when I was younger, | 0:29:37 | 0:29:41 | |
I managed to train with the Great Britain team, | 0:29:41 | 0:29:43 | |
that a lot of the players are part of the Paralympic team now, | 0:29:43 | 0:29:45 | |
who I used to sort of train with and play against when I was a little bit younger. | 0:29:45 | 0:29:49 | |
So it's quite cool watching all those guys play now. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:52 | |
How did the break into broadcasting happen? | 0:29:52 | 0:29:55 | |
Well, Channel 4 at the time had run a competition to find | 0:29:55 | 0:29:58 | |
a Paralympic presenter who wasn't a presenter, | 0:29:58 | 0:30:01 | |
so I entered it and thought I'd give it a go | 0:30:01 | 0:30:05 | |
and then I ended up covering the 2012 Paralympics off the back | 0:30:05 | 0:30:08 | |
of that, and then I actually did some work experience with Newsround, | 0:30:08 | 0:30:12 | |
so Hayley's sitting next to you now, | 0:30:12 | 0:30:15 | |
when Hayley was presenting Newsround in London, I think my job was | 0:30:15 | 0:30:19 | |
to make her a cup of tea, her and the other presenters. | 0:30:19 | 0:30:22 | |
No, it wasn't! | 0:30:22 | 0:30:23 | |
And then ended up getting offered a job to present on the legacy | 0:30:23 | 0:30:28 | |
of the Games after 2012 as a special for Newsround, and I snuck in | 0:30:28 | 0:30:32 | |
-the back door and didn't leave. -All right, brilliant. | 0:30:32 | 0:30:34 | |
Film and TV, Martin. Do you want to go first or second against Chris? | 0:30:34 | 0:30:38 | |
I'm going to go first, please. | 0:30:38 | 0:30:40 | |
So, good luck getting yourself in the final, so Hayley's not alone. | 0:30:43 | 0:30:46 | |
Here's your question. | 0:30:46 | 0:30:48 | |
The Pontipines and Wottingers are characters in which | 0:30:48 | 0:30:53 | |
children's TV show? | 0:30:53 | 0:30:54 | |
I just know for a fact that my six-year-old daughter Jessica | 0:30:59 | 0:31:02 | |
is screaming at the TV right now. She's like, "Daddy! I know this!" | 0:31:02 | 0:31:06 | |
I don't think it's Justin's House. | 0:31:06 | 0:31:09 | |
I don't think it's Peppa Pig because the amount of Peppa Pig | 0:31:09 | 0:31:13 | |
I've watched over the last six years is unbelievable. | 0:31:13 | 0:31:16 | |
I could be wrong. But I'm going to say In The Night Garden. | 0:31:16 | 0:31:19 | |
That was my initial thought and I'm pretty sure I remember | 0:31:19 | 0:31:24 | |
sitting just before bedtime with my daughter and hearing those | 0:31:24 | 0:31:27 | |
strange words in my head. | 0:31:27 | 0:31:28 | |
-I don't know where it's coming from, but I hope I'm right. -You are right. | 0:31:28 | 0:31:33 | |
In The Night Garden. Well done. | 0:31:33 | 0:31:34 | |
I would never have lived that down, honest! | 0:31:34 | 0:31:37 | |
That is the ultimate nightmare, a children's TV question, isn't it? | 0:31:37 | 0:31:40 | |
Ah, well done. Well done. You can go home. Your daughter will be proud. | 0:31:40 | 0:31:45 | |
Chris, which film studio made the 2016 animated film Finding Dory? | 0:31:45 | 0:31:50 | |
That is from Pixar. | 0:31:54 | 0:31:57 | |
It is from Pixar. Have you seen it? | 0:31:57 | 0:31:59 | |
-No, of course not. -No. Not yet. -Silly question. | 0:31:59 | 0:32:03 | |
OK. Back to you, Martin. | 0:32:03 | 0:32:04 | |
Which real life figure has been played on screen by, among others, | 0:32:04 | 0:32:08 | |
Kurt Russell, Bruce Campbell, and Don Johnson? | 0:32:08 | 0:32:11 | |
Is this...? | 0:32:11 | 0:32:13 | |
My initial thought is Elvis Presley. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:18 | |
Um, I don't think I've ever watched anything with | 0:32:21 | 0:32:24 | |
William Shakespeare in, anything to do with William Shakespeare. | 0:32:24 | 0:32:28 | |
Um, I can't see... | 0:32:28 | 0:32:31 | |
The only actor I knew there that you mentioned was Kurt Russell. | 0:32:31 | 0:32:35 | |
Um, and I don't why but I can just see Kurt Russell playing | 0:32:35 | 0:32:39 | |
Elvis Presley, for some reason, so I'm going to go straight down | 0:32:39 | 0:32:43 | |
the middle, it's a complete guess, and I'm going to go Elvis Presley. | 0:32:43 | 0:32:47 | |
You're right about every single thing. Elvis Presley is correct. | 0:32:47 | 0:32:50 | |
Well done. | 0:32:50 | 0:32:52 | |
Chris, the Back To The Future films are set in which town? | 0:32:52 | 0:32:55 | |
Ah, well, tautology, it's Hill Valley. | 0:33:01 | 0:33:04 | |
-It is Hill Valley. -Mm. | 0:33:04 | 0:33:05 | |
I thought you were going to get that wrong. | 0:33:05 | 0:33:08 | |
-Nuh-huh. -Cos you haven't seen them, have you? -Only on television. | 0:33:08 | 0:33:11 | |
-Oh, you have seen them on television? -Mm. -Right, OK. | 0:33:11 | 0:33:14 | |
Martin, over to you. You're doing well. Two out of two. | 0:33:14 | 0:33:17 | |
Your third question. | 0:33:17 | 0:33:18 | |
Which TV drama series won a record breaking 38th Primetime | 0:33:18 | 0:33:23 | |
Emmy Award in 2016? | 0:33:23 | 0:33:25 | |
Um, I don't think it's House of Cards. | 0:33:29 | 0:33:32 | |
It's between Game of Thrones and Downton Abbey, | 0:33:32 | 0:33:36 | |
but something's pulling me towards Downton Abbey. | 0:33:36 | 0:33:39 | |
I've got a funny feeling that I've seen on the news when that happened. | 0:33:39 | 0:33:44 | |
That Downton Abbey had won sort of like | 0:33:44 | 0:33:48 | |
a record breaking amount of awards. But it could be Game of Thrones. | 0:33:48 | 0:33:52 | |
Um, but again, for the third time, | 0:33:52 | 0:33:56 | |
I'm just going to go with my instinct and go with Downton Abbey. | 0:33:56 | 0:34:00 | |
Downton Abbey. And Radzi, I think, knows this one. | 0:34:00 | 0:34:03 | |
-I'm going to say it's Game of Thrones. -It's Game of Thrones. | 0:34:03 | 0:34:06 | |
Argh! | 0:34:06 | 0:34:09 | |
It's somehow been so successful, | 0:34:09 | 0:34:11 | |
it's obviously got so many awards so quickly. | 0:34:11 | 0:34:14 | |
So, Game of Thrones is the answer. | 0:34:14 | 0:34:17 | |
It's 2-2. Chris has a question in hand. Chris, your question. | 0:34:17 | 0:34:20 | |
Who plays the role of Carol Vanstone in the 2016 film | 0:34:20 | 0:34:25 | |
Office Christmas Party? | 0:34:25 | 0:34:27 | |
Unlikely to be Meryl Streep, | 0:34:32 | 0:34:34 | |
anything as frivolous as the Office Christmas Party, | 0:34:34 | 0:34:36 | |
unless it's an office Christmas party that goes seriously wrong. | 0:34:36 | 0:34:40 | |
Don't think it would be Angelina Jolie either. | 0:34:40 | 0:34:43 | |
Sounds like the sort of thing Jennifer Aniston would do, | 0:34:43 | 0:34:45 | |
so I'd say Jennifer Aniston. | 0:34:45 | 0:34:47 | |
Jennifer Aniston is the right answer, Chris. | 0:34:47 | 0:34:49 | |
You got three out of three. Sorry, Martin. | 0:34:49 | 0:34:51 | |
-Oh! -Knocked out. I'm so sorry! | 0:34:51 | 0:34:54 | |
Return to us and we will play the final. | 0:34:54 | 0:34:57 | |
This is what we have been playing towards, | 0:34:57 | 0:35:00 | |
it is time for our final round. As always, General Knowledge. | 0:35:00 | 0:35:03 | |
But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be | 0:35:03 | 0:35:06 | |
allowed to take part in this round. | 0:35:06 | 0:35:08 | |
And they're all from the challengers' side. | 0:35:08 | 0:35:10 | |
So it's Katie and Radzi and Martin and Ayshah from the Big Kids. | 0:35:10 | 0:35:13 | |
Would you please now leave the studio? | 0:35:13 | 0:35:15 | |
OK, Hayley. How are you doing there? I know this wasn't quite the plan. | 0:35:17 | 0:35:20 | |
This is the worst thing that could have ever happened. | 0:35:20 | 0:35:23 | |
Right now, I'm living it. | 0:35:23 | 0:35:24 | |
-Nightmare. -No, but in a way, it's the moment, isn't it? | 0:35:24 | 0:35:27 | |
Because they've all been in the booth and this is your solo moment. | 0:35:27 | 0:35:30 | |
I'm trying to get the positivity out of that, Jeremy, but I'm not getting anything. | 0:35:30 | 0:35:34 | |
-And we've kind of worked together before. -We have. We did a Panorama together. | 0:35:34 | 0:35:38 | |
-2007? I think? A long time ago. -Yeah, what's really interesting is before working in children's TV, | 0:35:38 | 0:35:43 | |
Hayley worked undercover for Panorama and award-winning | 0:35:43 | 0:35:48 | |
for Panorama, exposing midwife care. Well, you say what you did. | 0:35:48 | 0:35:54 | |
So, the first one, I was an assistant midwife for a year, | 0:35:54 | 0:35:57 | |
working in various hospitals and covering the care there. | 0:35:57 | 0:36:00 | |
And then I did one about home care, so when you go and look after people in their homes. | 0:36:00 | 0:36:04 | |
So I did that for another year. | 0:36:04 | 0:36:06 | |
And then I was also a producer behind the scenes on a few of them as well. | 0:36:06 | 0:36:09 | |
And you had to go in and wear cameras and all that stuff? | 0:36:09 | 0:36:11 | |
Wear cameras, have different hair colour, a different name. Yeah. | 0:36:11 | 0:36:14 | |
And in the end, you get piles and piles of material and the | 0:36:14 | 0:36:17 | |
programme that came out of it was really astonishing. | 0:36:17 | 0:36:20 | |
Actually probably changed life for a lot of people actually. | 0:36:20 | 0:36:23 | |
It did. We made some positive changes. | 0:36:23 | 0:36:25 | |
I think there's a lot more could be done, but, yeah, made some changes, which is good. | 0:36:25 | 0:36:29 | |
Good stuff. You are playing to win the Big Kids £6,000. | 0:36:29 | 0:36:33 | |
Dave, Chris, Beth, Kevin, and Judith, you're playing for | 0:36:33 | 0:36:36 | |
something that money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:36:36 | 0:36:38 | |
And I know you like to beat celeb teams. You like to win all the time. | 0:36:38 | 0:36:41 | |
You're just like that. | 0:36:41 | 0:36:43 | |
So, as usual, I'm going to ask each team three questions in turn. | 0:36:43 | 0:36:46 | |
They're all General Knowledge. | 0:36:46 | 0:36:48 | |
You can confer. Sorry, that doesn't help you on your own. | 0:36:48 | 0:36:52 | |
Hayley, the question is, can your one brain defeat these five? | 0:36:52 | 0:36:55 | |
I bet it can. Would you like to go first or second? | 0:36:55 | 0:36:57 | |
I'll go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:36:57 | 0:36:59 | |
-OK, good luck, Hayley. -Thank you. | 0:37:03 | 0:37:05 | |
The city of Reno, famous as a centre for gambling, is in which US state? | 0:37:05 | 0:37:10 | |
Is it...? | 0:37:10 | 0:37:12 | |
Gosh! | 0:37:14 | 0:37:16 | |
I've been to Nevada. | 0:37:16 | 0:37:18 | |
I can't remember it being there. | 0:37:18 | 0:37:20 | |
I want to say North Dakota. | 0:37:20 | 0:37:23 | |
I have absolutely no idea. I'm terrible at geography. | 0:37:23 | 0:37:26 | |
I'm going to say North Dakota, but I have actually no idea. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:29 | |
OK, North Dakota. | 0:37:29 | 0:37:30 | |
Now, I'm just thinking here, you went to Las Vegas, did you, | 0:37:30 | 0:37:34 | |
-in Nevada? -Yeah. -Is that right? So, Las Vegas, Nevada. | 0:37:34 | 0:37:37 | |
Is Reno near Las Vegas or not? | 0:37:37 | 0:37:39 | |
-It's in the same state. -Same state. | 0:37:39 | 0:37:42 | |
-Oh! -It is in Nevada. | 0:37:42 | 0:37:43 | |
Argh! | 0:37:43 | 0:37:45 | |
Nevada is the answer, Hayley. Eggheads, your question. | 0:37:45 | 0:37:48 | |
Which 1991 Nirvana album featured the song Smells Like Teen Spirit? | 0:37:48 | 0:37:53 | |
-Nevermind. Nevermind. -Nevermind. Nevermind, definitely. | 0:37:56 | 0:37:59 | |
-Are we all positive? -Yes, I think so. -That's Nevermind, Jeremy. | 0:37:59 | 0:38:03 | |
Nevermind is the right answer. | 0:38:03 | 0:38:06 | |
-Now, I knew that one! -I know. I know you knew that. I know you knew that. | 0:38:06 | 0:38:10 | |
OK, here's your question. | 0:38:10 | 0:38:11 | |
A shot of which spirit is drunk alongside or added to | 0:38:11 | 0:38:16 | |
a beer to make the drink called a Boilermaker? | 0:38:16 | 0:38:19 | |
I've no idea, but I'm just thinking that a Boilermaker would be hot and | 0:38:23 | 0:38:27 | |
hard-hitting, so I think whisky is the sort of thing that you | 0:38:27 | 0:38:32 | |
associate with warmth and strength, so I'm going to go whisky. | 0:38:32 | 0:38:37 | |
-Whisky is the right answer, Hayley. -Wahey! -Well done. | 0:38:37 | 0:38:40 | |
Good stuff. OK. Because it would be easy to go wrong on that one. | 0:38:40 | 0:38:44 | |
You did well. So, Eggheads, which British Overseas Territory | 0:38:44 | 0:38:48 | |
has the top level internet domain code .KY? | 0:38:48 | 0:38:53 | |
Hm, KY. Any immediate thoughts? | 0:38:59 | 0:39:02 | |
-No. -No. | 0:39:02 | 0:39:04 | |
-Nothing? -No, I'm trying to work out a... -KY. | 0:39:04 | 0:39:07 | |
It's not the Channel Islands. | 0:39:07 | 0:39:10 | |
Do you think it's an alternative spelling for Cayman? | 0:39:10 | 0:39:13 | |
That's the closest thing I can come up with. | 0:39:13 | 0:39:15 | |
Maybe there's already a CY. | 0:39:15 | 0:39:17 | |
Chris is saying that Channel Islands is CI. | 0:39:17 | 0:39:20 | |
But why wouldn't that come under UK? .co.uk. | 0:39:20 | 0:39:23 | |
I would tend to think as well with Channel Islands, | 0:39:23 | 0:39:26 | |
would they have separate ones for Jersey and Guernsey? | 0:39:26 | 0:39:30 | |
Yeah, they would, yeah. | 0:39:30 | 0:39:32 | |
-I don't know, but... -I think there just might be a CY already. | 0:39:32 | 0:39:36 | |
If there's a CY already, this would lead you to Cayman Islands. | 0:39:36 | 0:39:39 | |
Yes, exactly. | 0:39:39 | 0:39:40 | |
Yeah, is CY Cyprus? | 0:39:40 | 0:39:42 | |
It could well be, yeah. | 0:39:42 | 0:39:44 | |
-CY could be Cyprus. -They're quite arcane, the domain names. | 0:39:44 | 0:39:48 | |
KY could be the Cayman Islands? | 0:39:48 | 0:39:50 | |
-To preserve the K. -There could be another reason. | 0:39:50 | 0:39:55 | |
-Yes, you see, K, I mean Cay-man. -Yeah, yeah. | 0:39:55 | 0:40:00 | |
It could well be that CI is - if you think if CI, | 0:40:00 | 0:40:04 | |
that would be Cote d'Ivoire, for instance. | 0:40:04 | 0:40:09 | |
Yeah, KY. Yeah, that sounds - that's as good as we've got really. | 0:40:09 | 0:40:14 | |
That makes sense. | 0:40:14 | 0:40:15 | |
I can't see a reason why it would be the Falkland Islands. | 0:40:15 | 0:40:18 | |
-So far. -OK. So, we eliminated Channel Islands cos it's not | 0:40:18 | 0:40:21 | |
a British Overseas Territory. | 0:40:21 | 0:40:23 | |
So that means we were left with the Falkland Islands and the | 0:40:23 | 0:40:25 | |
Cayman Islands. And going from the linguistic clues with the K, | 0:40:25 | 0:40:29 | |
-we are going with the Cayman Islands. -Understood. | 0:40:29 | 0:40:31 | |
You mentioned Cyprus. That is CY. | 0:40:31 | 0:40:33 | |
You mentioned Cote d'Ivoire, that is CI. | 0:40:33 | 0:40:36 | |
.KY is the Cayman Islands, well done, Eggheads. | 0:40:36 | 0:40:40 | |
A bit of careful work there. | 0:40:40 | 0:40:44 | |
-So, third question. You need to get this one right, Hayley. -Right. | 0:40:44 | 0:40:48 | |
-No pressure. -No pressure. At all. | 0:40:48 | 0:40:50 | |
Which work of 19th century literature is largely | 0:40:50 | 0:40:55 | |
narrated by the characters Nelly Dean and Lockwood? | 0:40:55 | 0:41:00 | |
Wuthering Heights does start with the woman in the kitchen, talking. | 0:41:06 | 0:41:12 | |
So I'm going to say Wuthering Heights. | 0:41:12 | 0:41:15 | |
-Is she right? -Mm. -You're absolutely right. Well done. -Oh, phew! | 0:41:15 | 0:41:18 | |
It's nerve-racking! | 0:41:18 | 0:41:20 | |
Yeah, and the funny thing was I'm sure you knew the Nevada in | 0:41:20 | 0:41:24 | |
-the back of your mind. -Mm. -Because of the Nevada answer earlier, | 0:41:24 | 0:41:27 | |
-they have a chance to win on this question. -Oh, of course. | 0:41:27 | 0:41:30 | |
If they get this wrong, we go to sudden death. | 0:41:30 | 0:41:32 | |
Playing well, Hayley. Don't worry. So, Eggheads, your third question. | 0:41:32 | 0:41:35 | |
For the contest. | 0:41:35 | 0:41:37 | |
The 2015 Kate Winslet film The Dressmaker is mainly set in | 0:41:37 | 0:41:42 | |
which country? | 0:41:42 | 0:41:43 | |
-It's Australia. -Australia. | 0:41:46 | 0:41:48 | |
-Have you seen it? -Yes. -Is it based on a...? | 0:41:48 | 0:41:54 | |
It's based on a novel, I think. | 0:41:54 | 0:41:55 | |
-But not a real person? -No, no. I don't think so. | 0:41:55 | 0:41:59 | |
No, no. | 0:41:59 | 0:42:01 | |
It's basically a sort of Spaghetti Western transplanted | 0:42:01 | 0:42:04 | |
to 1950s Australia. | 0:42:04 | 0:42:06 | |
-OK. -In some respects. | 0:42:06 | 0:42:08 | |
Erm, this is a film based on a novel and it's set in Australia. | 0:42:08 | 0:42:14 | |
If you've got it right, the contest is over. | 0:42:14 | 0:42:18 | |
The correct answer is Australia. | 0:42:18 | 0:42:20 | |
We say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won. | 0:42:20 | 0:42:23 | |
But the four of them in the back and you here alone doesn't do justice to | 0:42:29 | 0:42:32 | |
your great performance, cos round by round, they've really punched hard. | 0:42:32 | 0:42:37 | |
-Yes, really unfortunate. -Yeah, in every round you were close. | 0:42:37 | 0:42:41 | |
So, bad luck, Hayley and team. | 0:42:41 | 0:42:44 | |
-Thank you so much for coming in, everybody. -Thank you. | 0:42:44 | 0:42:47 | |
Really enjoyed it. Seeing the Big Kids. Commiserations, players, | 0:42:47 | 0:42:50 | |
the Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them. This winning streak continues. | 0:42:50 | 0:42:55 | |
-They don't give the celebs any space at all, do they? -They don't. | 0:42:55 | 0:42:58 | |
-I thought you'd be soft on us. No! -No, they don't. | 0:42:58 | 0:43:00 | |
Well, they pretend to be. That's almost the worse thing. I'm afraid you haven't won the £6,000, | 0:43:00 | 0:43:04 | |
so the money rolls over to our next show. Eggheads, congratulations. | 0:43:04 | 0:43:08 | |
Will a team of celebrities one day undo you? I wonder! | 0:43:08 | 0:43:12 | |
If you want to see it happen, join us next time to see if | 0:43:12 | 0:43:15 | |
a new team of challengers have the brains to defeat them. | 0:43:15 | 0:43:19 | |
£7,000 says they won't. Till then, goodbye. | 0:43:19 | 0:43:22 |
