These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
Together they make up the Eggheads, | 0:00:09 | 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 | 0:00:26 | |
the show where a team of five quiz Challengers pit their wits | 0:00:26 | 0:00:30 | |
against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
They are the Eggheads. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
Here you are. Are you ready for the race? | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
-Yes. -On the blocks. -Good, very good. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
Trying to push our Goliaths into second place | 0:00:38 | 0:00:41 | |
today are the Para-Rangers. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
Now, this team of athletes have been thrilling us with their | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
sporting excellence at Paralympic Games going back to Sydney 2000. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:50 | |
They have set world records and won multiple medals. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:53 | |
But will it be the Eggheads or the Challengers | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
running the victory lap at the end of the final round? | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
-Let's meet them. -I'm Danny Crates, | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
former Paralympic athlete and gold medallist from Athens 2004. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:05 | |
The only member of the team who has retired. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
An old has-been, I guess. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:09 | |
But I now work as a motivational speaker | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
and a little bit in television. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:12 | |
Hi, I'm Megan Giglia. I am a para-cyclist, track and road, | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
and I am double world champion and world record-holder... | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
and scapegoat for the team. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
Hi, I'm Jonathan Broom-Edwards, I'm a Paralympic high jumper | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
and I won a silver medal at Rio. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
Hi, everyone. I am Stef Reid, | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
I am a three-time Paralympic medallist in athletics, | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
and I am also a broadcaster, a speaker and a fashion model. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:37 | |
Hi, I'm Dan Greaves, British Paralympic discus thrower, | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
collecting five Paralympic medals at five games, | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
and I also like to bench press. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
So, Danny and team, hello. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:47 | |
-Hello. -Hello. -Great to see you. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:49 | |
And, Danny, I know this is not like your normal activities here. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
Are you prepped for this? | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
Yeah. I mean, I've played the app. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
I won't tell you how I got on, but I've played the app! | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
Eggheads, do you play your own app or not? | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
I didn't know we had one! | 0:02:03 | 0:02:04 | |
You are an app. Judith doesn't even know that. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
You broke the news to her. She doesn't even know she's an app. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
-You're that modern. -Yeah. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
Any particular subjects you're strong on, Danny? | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
Or where you think the team are weak? | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
I think my strongest subject is the life and work of Danny Crates, | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
former Paralympic athlete. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:20 | |
JEREMY LAUGHS | 0:02:20 | 0:02:21 | |
I'm probably more just general knowledge. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:26 | |
I don't think I've got a specialist field, | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
and it's definitely not sport. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
Megan, how about you? | 0:02:30 | 0:02:31 | |
I'm sure at some point you've all been answers on Eggheads, actually. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:35 | |
Well, for me, the only subject that really sticks in my head | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
and I actually remember is anything to do with animals and dogs. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
So the chances of that coming up is, eh, fat chance! | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
I don't know. Well, that comes up in science. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
Judith famously won a science round against a rocket scientist | 0:02:48 | 0:02:52 | |
on a question about a plant. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
Yes. Animals, dogs and plants all come into science. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
-Yeah. -So worth remembering. -I'll get a plant then! | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
LAUGHING: OK. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
Jonathan, do you watch the show? | 0:03:04 | 0:03:05 | |
I've watched the show a couple of times. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
I've also played the app relentlessly | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
over the last 24 hours, trying to practise. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
In terms of a subject I feel I will be better at, | 0:03:12 | 0:03:16 | |
maybe towards science or music. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
The others - sport, I'm actually quite naive in sport, so... | 0:03:19 | 0:03:23 | |
Interesting, Danny said that as well. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
So sports people are not necessarily knowledgeable | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
about other sports than their own? | 0:03:27 | 0:03:28 | |
I'm definitely the least knowledgeable | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
-out of all of us, I think. -Stef, are you the same? | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
Do you know, I love sport? | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
The problem is I don't know much about football or cricket. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
I feel like that's probably going to be the most popular. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
But I'm probably going to be most confident in science. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
My background is as a biochemist. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
We're getting a lot of science here. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:45 | |
Did this come out during the strategy session? | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
I'm the scapegoat. So I get whatever they don't know. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
Oh, OK. The pressure in the booth, I'm always told, is considerable. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
Suddenly you get a question and you've got to get the answer | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
out of your own brain. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:58 | |
But then you're used to pressure, Stef, right? | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
Yeah, I think it can sometimes bring out the best in you. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:02 | |
-It's a good thing. -Yeah. Dan, how about you? | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
Yeah, this is completely left field and not what we're used to | 0:04:05 | 0:04:09 | |
but I'm sure, as a team, collectively, | 0:04:09 | 0:04:11 | |
we'll be able to get a few questions right and put | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
the Eggheads under some serious pressure | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
like we have our competitors. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:16 | |
When they go under pressure, these Eggheads, | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
they can just suddenly collapse, can't you? | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
Yeah. That's definitely going to happen(!) | 0:04:21 | 0:04:22 | |
Tell our Challengers here, are there gaps in your knowledge? Be honest. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
-Of course. -Are there things in the world you don't know? | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
-Judith? -There's absolutely nothing in the world I don't know. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
I know everything. The last person in the world who knew everything | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
was supposed to be Christopher Wren. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
-Is that right? -Yeah. -He would have been an Egghead. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:39 | |
-There's a fact. -Well, maybe Kevin - | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
Kevin is known as the Grand Master, if you're new to the show - | 0:04:41 | 0:04:43 | |
would be the modern Christopher Wren. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
Oh, thank you very much. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:47 | |
So far, no-one has asked me to design a cathedral. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
-Good luck, Challengers. -Thank you. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
All the best. Every day there is £1,000 worth | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
of cash up for grabs for our Challengers' chosen charity. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
the prize money rolls over into the next show. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
So, Para-Rangers, | 0:05:02 | 0:05:03 | |
I can tell you the recent celebrity teams have all come a cropper | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
with these Eggheads. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:09 | |
They have won the last seven games. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:11 | |
That means there's £8,000 for you to win today, which is, in a way, | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
very good news. Would you like to try? | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
-MEGAN: -Hell, yeah. -Yes. -Great stuff. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:18 | |
The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Film & TV. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:22 | |
One of you needs to go in against either Judith, Kevin, Pat, | 0:05:22 | 0:05:26 | |
-Steve or Lisa. -I'll go for it if you want. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
Yeah! | 0:05:28 | 0:05:30 | |
-Top man. -Be confident. -Who's this going to be? -Jonathan, yes. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
OK. Jonathan against any one of the five, Jonathan? | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
Let's go for Kevin. Just take him on! | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
Why not? What a great idea. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:42 | |
Wish me luck. Kevin. Let's do it. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:43 | |
Start early, that's a very good idea. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:45 | |
I like that. So Jonathan from the Para-Rangers | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
is taking on Kevin from the Eggheads right at the start | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
on Film & TV. And just to ensure there's no conferring, | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
would you please take your positions in our legendary Question Room? | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
Jonathan, your sporting history is really interesting cos you never | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
really saw yourself as a Paralympian at all, did you? | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
No, I didn't. It wasn't until I'd watched 2012, | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
the London Paralympic Games, | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
that I saw I could actually have competed as a high jumper. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:13 | |
And I think my personal best at the time may have got, I think, | 0:06:13 | 0:06:17 | |
third at London 2012. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:20 | |
I was classified just after 2012, actually. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
And the condition, I guess, would be called club foot, would it? | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
Yeah, club foot. It's otherwise known as talipes equinovarus. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
It's just a congenital deformity at birth. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
So my left foot doesn't function quite like my right one. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
Was it thrilling in Rio? | 0:06:35 | 0:06:36 | |
I know you jumped more than two metres. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:38 | |
Coming back from injury, actually, | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
to go out to Rio on the top stage and perform a season's best, | 0:06:40 | 0:06:44 | |
I was quite happy with that. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:46 | |
But it's given me the experience to go forward towards Tokyo. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
Wonderful. Good luck against Kevin, Jonathan. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
-Thank you! -Film & TV. Do you want to go first or second? | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
I'll go first, please. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:56 | |
OK, so Film & TV, Jonathan, against Kevin. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
Here is your question. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:03 | |
Which of these TV presenters was born first? | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
I don't actually know who Ant McPartlin is. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:13 | |
Erm... I know Davina McCall is fairly young in comparison, I think. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:17 | |
You know what, I'm going to go Ant McPartlin. | 0:07:17 | 0:07:20 | |
Born first. I think you will know Ant. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:22 | |
He's one half of Ant and Dec. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
Oh, no! | 0:07:24 | 0:07:25 | |
JEREMY LAUGHS | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
I think we had a question like this the other day, Eggheads. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
Was it you, Judith, who went on who has got the most grey hair? | 0:07:30 | 0:07:32 | |
Yeah. Phillip Schofield's got a lot of grey hair. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:34 | |
Phillip Schofield is the right answer. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
He's got the most grey hair. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:37 | |
That seems to be the way to answer this one. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
Phillip Schofield has famously been grey since he was in his mid-20s, | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
and was still working on children's television dying his hair. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:46 | |
-Dying it un-grey? -Yes. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:47 | |
Really? Phillip Schofield is the answer, Jonathan. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
OK, your question, Kevin. In which part of the world is the 2015 film | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
The Revenant set? | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
Well, it's set on the frontier in what was to become the USA. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:07 | |
It's North America. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:08 | |
North America is quite right. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
OK, Jonathan, back to you. Don't worry. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
The TV comedy series Fresh Meat is set in what sort of institution? | 0:08:13 | 0:08:17 | |
I believe this is university. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
You're quite right. It is university. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
Well done. Have you seen it? | 0:08:28 | 0:08:29 | |
I haven't watched it, but I remember it coming out. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
That's good. It would be very easy to go wrong there. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
Well done. Level with Kevin. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
Kevin, over to you. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
Selasi Gbormittah found fame as a contestant on which TV show in 2016? | 0:08:38 | 0:08:43 | |
HE SCOFFS | 0:08:48 | 0:08:49 | |
Right. Not, eh... | 0:08:52 | 0:08:53 | |
Definitely not my sort of question. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:56 | |
I don't watch any of those. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
I think at some point I read an article somewhere in relation to... | 0:08:58 | 0:09:03 | |
..The Apprentice and it gave the names of the various contestants | 0:09:05 | 0:09:09 | |
and obviously that's quite a distinctive name. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
I don't recall it being one of those. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:15 | |
I'm afraid as far as Britain's Got Talent is concerned, | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
I haven't got the faintest. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
And obviously there are a lot of people... | 0:09:20 | 0:09:23 | |
involved in that. I've... | 0:09:23 | 0:09:25 | |
HE SIGHS | 0:09:25 | 0:09:26 | |
..got a faint idea from somewhere that there was somebody with... | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
..an African background, shall we say? | 0:09:31 | 0:09:34 | |
I may be completely off beam here. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:37 | |
Who was involved in the Great British Bake Off | 0:09:37 | 0:09:40 | |
and may have had... | 0:09:40 | 0:09:42 | |
..a distinctive name like that. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:44 | |
It's all I've got to go on. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
Lisa just blew you a kiss. Lisa? | 0:09:46 | 0:09:48 | |
Yes, Selasi got a long way into the Great British Bake Off. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:52 | |
-He was my favourite. -Well done, Kevin. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
OK, Jonathan. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:56 | |
-You've got to get this one right. -Yep. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:57 | |
"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain," | 0:09:57 | 0:10:01 | |
is a famous line from which film? | 0:10:01 | 0:10:02 | |
Could you repeat it, please? | 0:10:07 | 0:10:09 | |
"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain," | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
is a famous line from which film? | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
I'm inclined to say it's not The Wizard Of Oz. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
I'm going with my gut here. I'm going to say Casablanca. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:22 | |
Now, I think your team-mates may know. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:24 | |
Stef and Dan, do you know this? | 0:10:24 | 0:10:25 | |
-We think it's... -The Wizard Of Oz. -..Oz | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
It's Wizard Of Oz. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:29 | |
-Oh, my God! -It's the last scene. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
Remind us, you've seen it recently, maybe? | 0:10:32 | 0:10:34 | |
That last scene, is it? | 0:10:34 | 0:10:35 | |
It's with the wizard, isn't it? | 0:10:35 | 0:10:38 | |
-Well, he's not. -You find out he's not actually that, | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
-you know, big and... -He's not up to much. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:41 | |
The Wizard Of Oz is the answer, Jonathan. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:44 | |
So Kevin has knocked you out. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:45 | |
Kevin, you'll be in the final round. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
But it's early days. Come on, Challengers, you can do this. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
Do return to us, we'll play Round Two. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
As it stands, the Para-Rangers have lost a brain from the final round. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:56 | |
The Eggheads are still all sitting there. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:58 | |
Your next subject is History. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
Who would like this? | 0:11:01 | 0:11:02 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
Didn't one of our team members say history? | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
I thought someone mentioned history earlier. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:08 | |
I'm the scapegoat, yes. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:09 | |
There is no scapegoat. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
-Yeah, right! -No-one wants history? | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
-Right, it's mine, there we go. -Go on. Are you sure? | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
Yeah, I know naff all. But...let's go for it. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
Our cyclist against which Egghead? | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
Who looks a little bit unsighted on world events? | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
-STEF: -Who is not making eye contact? -That's a very good way. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:28 | |
Steve! | 0:11:28 | 0:11:29 | |
-LAUGHTER -Steve. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
-Steve it is. -Unless he's doing some reverse psychology. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
OK, Megan from the Para-Rangers against Steve from the Eggheads, | 0:11:36 | 0:11:40 | |
on History. Is that OK with you, Megan? | 0:11:40 | 0:11:42 | |
-I guess it has to be. -It has to be, yeah. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
I'm taking one for the team here. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:46 | |
Please take your positions now. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
Well, Megan, firstly, congratulations on Rio. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:52 | |
-Thank you. -The first gold, I think, at the Paralympic Games for us? | 0:11:52 | 0:11:56 | |
Yeah, it was. It came as a bit of a shock, really. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
I didn't have a clue where I was going to place and I came first. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:02 | |
-What can I say? -And remind us of the event? | 0:12:02 | 0:12:05 | |
The event was the 3km pursuit in track. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:07 | |
So basically, I go round in a circle, I chase the person | 0:12:07 | 0:12:11 | |
in front of me, they're back... behind, and I go past them. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
And that's exactly how I did it. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:15 | |
And we've noted your T-shirt - OCD, Obsessive Cycling Disorder. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:19 | |
-Oh, yeah. -It's become your addiction and your life? | 0:12:19 | 0:12:22 | |
Oh, very much so. Yeah, it's the biggest part of my life. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:25 | |
And I know your life changed when you were 27, | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
and in the most unexpected way. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:30 | |
Yeah, when I was 27, so January 2013, I actually walked into A&E. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:34 | |
I was diagnosed, eventually, after going through all the processes, | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
of having a subarachnoid brain haemorrhage. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
So basically, a stroke. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:40 | |
I had a bleed on the brain | 0:12:40 | 0:12:42 | |
and the only option was to operate. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:44 | |
So they did that and it left me | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
with right-side weakness and a variety of | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
neurological and physical difficulties. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
And I use cycling as my focus... | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
and look where I am now. I've made what was a negative situation | 0:12:53 | 0:12:57 | |
-into probably the most positive one in my life. -It's brilliant. | 0:12:57 | 0:13:01 | |
And I know you also, always, when you compete, | 0:13:01 | 0:13:03 | |
you talk about other people | 0:13:03 | 0:13:04 | |
who've had their lives changed by a stroke, | 0:13:04 | 0:13:06 | |
and they may not be elderly. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
Yeah. No. So every ride I do, any main events, | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
I dedicate every race to someone and their family, | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
because it's not just the survivor, whether it be stroke or cancer, | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
it's also the family around them - the carers, the support network. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:20 | |
They all suffer in their own way. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
Just by doing that, it puts a bit of pressure on me. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:24 | |
Not only do I inspire people, they inspire me, | 0:13:24 | 0:13:28 | |
and it makes me want to win even more. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
And that's where I get my drive and determination and focus from. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:34 | |
And am I remembering this right, | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
in Rio, for you, the focus was a ten-year-old boy? | 0:13:36 | 0:13:39 | |
Yes, Alasdair Rowan. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:40 | |
I'm actually going to see him at some point this year. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:42 | |
I sent him down some goodies for Christmas, and his brother. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
But, yeah, he's planning on smashing me at badminton. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:48 | |
We'll see what happens. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:49 | |
I'm probably going to land on my face, to be fair. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:52 | |
Well, I bet he's watching now. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:53 | |
-Good luck, Megan. -Thank you. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:55 | |
Here we go then. From the Para-Rangers, | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
it's Megan, against Steve from the Eggheads. | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
And would you like to go first or second on this round, Megan? | 0:13:59 | 0:14:03 | |
Oh, I'll go first. Let's get it out the park. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:05 | |
OK, here we go. History, Megan, and your first question. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:12 | |
The Norman Conquest of Britain, | 0:14:12 | 0:14:14 | |
led by William the Conqueror, took place in which year? | 0:14:14 | 0:14:18 | |
Well, I'm sure my partner at home is probably kicking me straightaway | 0:14:22 | 0:14:26 | |
cos I have no idea. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
Numbers just don't stick out at me. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:30 | |
Other than 1066, the Battle of Hastings. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:32 | |
So I'm just going to kind of go with that, | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
but I have a feeling it's probably not. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:36 | |
Let's check with Steve. Steve? | 0:14:36 | 0:14:38 | |
Yeah, it's good. That's right. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:39 | |
And Megan is absolutely right - Battle of Hastings, 1066? | 0:14:39 | 0:14:42 | |
-Yeah, yeah. -And that was the whole start of it, right? | 0:14:42 | 0:14:45 | |
Yeah. That's right, yeah. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
OK, Megan, you're bang-on, well done. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:49 | |
1066...and all that. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:52 | |
There's book, isn't there, with that title? | 0:14:52 | 0:14:55 | |
OK, Steve. Which of these historical empires was established first? | 0:14:55 | 0:14:58 | |
Yeah, I think that must be the Roman Empire, Jeremy. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:06 | |
What about the Mongols? | 0:15:06 | 0:15:07 | |
-You weren't tempted by that? -No, that's much later. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:10 | |
How much later? | 0:15:10 | 0:15:12 | |
Probably about the 12th century, something like that. 13th. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:14 | |
And then the British Empire obviously got bigger. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:17 | |
It's like... | 0:15:17 | 0:15:19 | |
well, probably from the time of Elizabeth I onwards, really. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
The Roman Empire is quite right. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:24 | |
Well done. Megan, 1-1, back to you. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:28 | |
In Anglo-Saxon culture, what were barrows? | 0:15:28 | 0:15:31 | |
-Barrows. -Barrows... | 0:15:34 | 0:15:36 | |
I just think wheelbarrow. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:38 | |
Where does that fit in? I'm going to go into weapons. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
I like the idea of it just being weaponry, to be fair. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:45 | |
OK, weapons is your answer. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
It's actually funeral mounds. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:49 | |
I guess in a funny way they probably look like | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
upside-down wheelbarrows. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:53 | |
But Eggheads, what is the derivation of that word? | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
Well, they were mounds, | 0:15:56 | 0:15:57 | |
because they were mounds of earth that were formed, | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
but there were different types. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
There were round barrows, long barrows. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:04 | |
Does the word "barrow" lead us to "mound" in any way? | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
No, not as such. It's kind of back derivation. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
They came to be known as barrows | 0:16:09 | 0:16:11 | |
much later when the early archaeologists | 0:16:11 | 0:16:13 | |
discovered them. They thought, in fact, | 0:16:13 | 0:16:16 | |
it was a sort of fancied resemblance to something like | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
an upside-down wheelbarrow that made people first use the word, I think. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:23 | |
-Ah, right. -So the term stuck, | 0:16:23 | 0:16:24 | |
even though other types were later discovered. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:27 | |
OK. Steve, your question, to take the lead. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:30 | |
In which year did the Cuban Missile Crisis take place? | 0:16:30 | 0:16:33 | |
It was famously Kennedy v Khrushchev. It's 1962, Jeremy. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:42 | |
1962 is correct. So he's taken the lead. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
We're in slightly the same spot we were in the last round, Megan. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
-Bring it on. -JONATHAN: -Come on, Megan. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:50 | |
Come on them. Your team are really backing you. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:52 | |
Here we go. Take your time. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:53 | |
The philosopher Aristotle was the tutor of which historical ruler? | 0:16:53 | 0:16:58 | |
They all just sound amazing. What can I say? | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
Alexander the Great. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:08 | |
-Good girl. -Alexander the Great... | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
is the correct answer! | 0:17:11 | 0:17:12 | |
I knew it, see! | 0:17:12 | 0:17:13 | |
LAUGHING: Brilliant! | 0:17:13 | 0:17:16 | |
2-2. Let's remember this moment. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:18 | |
You've drawn level with Steve. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:20 | |
Steve can go wrong here. | 0:17:20 | 0:17:21 | |
Let's see what happens. History we're on. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:23 | |
You can get in the final with this, Steve. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:25 | |
Which of these battles took place in 1862 and has been described | 0:17:25 | 0:17:30 | |
as the bloodiest day in American history? | 0:17:30 | 0:17:32 | |
Yeah, I think... | 0:17:38 | 0:17:39 | |
Kevin will know this. First Battle of Bull Run, alternative name, | 0:17:40 | 0:17:43 | |
but it's Antietam. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
Antietam, let's see, with Kevin. Kevin, is that the right answer? | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
Antietam is the right answer, yes. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:50 | |
It's not the same thing as First Bull Run, | 0:17:50 | 0:17:53 | |
which was the year before, | 0:17:53 | 0:17:55 | |
but there was a second battle at Bull Run which was very close | 0:17:55 | 0:17:57 | |
to Antietam, it was within a couple of weeks. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:00 | |
But Antietam, also known as Sharpsburg, | 0:18:00 | 0:18:02 | |
was the bloodiest single day in American military history. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:06 | |
The answer is Antietam. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:07 | |
So we say well done, Steve, you got three out of three. | 0:18:07 | 0:18:10 | |
Sorry, Megan, beaten by our Egghead. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:11 | |
But two out of three right answers - really good. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:14 | |
-Thank you. -Please return to us and we'll play round three. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:16 | |
Right, the Para-Rangers have lost two brains from the final round. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:23 | |
The Eggheads are still sitting there, | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
now's probably the moment to turn it on. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
The next subject is Sport. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:28 | |
-Greavesy! -I think that's good, isn't it? | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
-OK! -Again on the end. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
And who would you like to take on? | 0:18:35 | 0:18:36 | |
It obviously can't be Kevin or Steve. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
I'd like to face Judith, please. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:41 | |
Very good. So, Dan from the Para-Rangers, | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
-I bet you're pleased about that. -I'm thrilled. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:45 | |
-JONATHAN: -She's going to ruin you, mate! | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
Please take your positions. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:50 | |
Well, your sport is discus, Dan. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:54 | |
Yeah, it's very aptly named, isn't it? | 0:18:54 | 0:18:58 | |
What brought you to that in the first place? | 0:18:58 | 0:19:00 | |
It was at high school. My PE teacher was a hammer thrower | 0:19:00 | 0:19:04 | |
and he saw that I could throw it much further than the other kids. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:08 | |
So, really, he told me to go to a local athletics club | 0:19:08 | 0:19:12 | |
and it all started from there. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:13 | |
It's a bit like golf, some days you can have really good days | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
and other days, you know, it's really frustrating | 0:19:16 | 0:19:19 | |
and it's quite challenging. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:20 | |
-I just loved it. -I always think it's the absolute perfect combination | 0:19:20 | 0:19:25 | |
of strength and skill. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:26 | |
Yeah, you have to almost be ballerina-like. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:29 | |
You have to really get across the circle, be on your toes, | 0:19:29 | 0:19:32 | |
but then also apply the power when it's needed, | 0:19:32 | 0:19:35 | |
otherwise it could go straight in the ground or it could fly. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:39 | |
Obviously, we all want it to fly. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:41 | |
And what's been your proudest sporting moment, do you think? | 0:19:41 | 0:19:44 | |
I think Paralympic gold in Athens 2004 is right up there. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:48 | |
But also my silver in London. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:49 | |
It's close to my heart, because it was in front of | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
all my friends and family. So that'll be a lasting memory. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
That moment in London was almost the best Paralympic moment | 0:19:54 | 0:19:58 | |
-we've ever seen, wasn't it? -Yeah. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
It was fantastic. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
I competed on Thriller Thursday, 85,000 people going bonkers. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:07 | |
To be honest, as a sportsman and a bit of a sports fan, | 0:20:07 | 0:20:10 | |
I got to see David Weir, Hannah, Jonnie - | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
all from the middle of the arena - | 0:20:12 | 0:20:14 | |
compete and win. I had the best seat in the house. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:17 | |
The fact that it sold every seat, | 0:20:17 | 0:20:19 | |
the whole country got behind it, didn't they? It was great. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
Yeah, the public really just fell in love with Paralympics, | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
and hopefully still do. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:26 | |
We've got the London World Championships in July | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
and hopefully we can get bums on seats | 0:20:29 | 0:20:31 | |
and everyone can come and support the GB athletes in July in London. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:35 | |
Brilliant stuff. So, we're going on to Sport now, Dan, | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
which I know is a mixed blessing. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
In a way, on paper, it's your strongest subject, | 0:20:39 | 0:20:41 | |
but sometimes that brings stress with it. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:44 | |
We had an interesting incident the other day with Iwan Thomas | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
the sprinter, Judith, didn't we? | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
-Yes, we did. -Just remind us what happened. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:51 | |
Well, he'd been on Celebrity Eggheads before, once before, | 0:20:51 | 0:20:55 | |
and had chosen me for sport, and by sheer fluke I beat him. | 0:20:55 | 0:21:00 | |
Anyway, he came again, and he wanted... | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
He's been thinking about it ever since, and wanted his revenge. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:07 | |
-And what happened? -And, I'm afraid, he lost again! | 0:21:07 | 0:21:11 | |
Only, the worst thing was that I guessed all my answers! | 0:21:11 | 0:21:15 | |
Judith's got a bit of record, | 0:21:15 | 0:21:16 | |
cos she's done a rocket scientist on science, you won that, | 0:21:16 | 0:21:20 | |
Edwina Currie you beat on politics, | 0:21:20 | 0:21:22 | |
and you beat somebody I think we can describe as a geographer | 0:21:22 | 0:21:25 | |
on geography. I thought the other day | 0:21:25 | 0:21:27 | |
when we had the chefs in, you were going | 0:21:27 | 0:21:28 | |
to do a chef on food and drink, but it didn't happen. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:31 | |
I know, I wish I had. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:32 | |
Collect the whole bouquet, as it were. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
All right, well good luck here, Dan, against the great Judith, | 0:21:35 | 0:21:38 | |
who can be formidable. Dan, would you like to go first or second? | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
I'll go first, please. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:42 | |
Here we go. John Terry has played over 700 matches | 0:21:45 | 0:21:49 | |
for which London football club? | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
Well, being a big football fan, I definitely know this. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:57 | |
It's not Arsenal or Spurs, and that'll be Chelsea. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:01 | |
Chelsea is the right answer. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:02 | |
-Come on, Dan! -Judith, this is your question. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:05 | |
Which of these sports was invented first? | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
Oh, well, I know that golf is very, very old. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
I think it was invented in Scotland. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
So I imagine it's golf. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
And you imagine right, it is golf. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
OK, Dan, this is your question. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:25 | |
Which of these sportsmen retired from competition | 0:22:25 | 0:22:27 | |
after breaking his neck in two places in 2000, | 0:22:27 | 0:22:30 | |
before reversing his decision two years later? | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
Ooh, erm... | 0:22:39 | 0:22:41 | |
I don't know whether it's Lennox Lewis, | 0:22:41 | 0:22:44 | |
I think he might have retired beforehand. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:48 | |
And the only reason I could think of Nick Skelton is probably | 0:22:48 | 0:22:52 | |
a jumping accident. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
Martin Johnson I think retired after the... | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
Oh, actually, no. It's Martin Johnson. | 0:22:57 | 0:22:59 | |
I think he did retire, | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
but then came back for the World Cup in 2002, that's my instinct. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:05 | |
And your answer is? | 0:23:06 | 0:23:07 | |
-Martin Johnson. -OK, let's see if your team-mates know here. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:11 | |
Is it Martin? | 0:23:11 | 0:23:12 | |
-I thought Nick Skelton. -We guessed Nick Skelton. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:15 | |
Yeah. You kind of referred to it in a way, it was... | 0:23:15 | 0:23:18 | |
I think it was a horse-related accident, wasn't it? | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
So it was Nick Skelton, who then competed in Rio. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:25 | |
-JONATHAN: -Yes. And won gold. -And won gold, exactly. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
Nick Skelton is the answer, Dan. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
Judith, your question. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:32 | |
How many individual goalposts are on the field | 0:23:32 | 0:23:34 | |
in a game of Australian rules football? | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
Well, there's bound to be two lots of goals, aren't there? | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
So, if it was two it'd be a pole at each end, which doesn't seem likely. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:47 | |
Eight would be the same as ordinary football, wouldn't it? | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
What would 12 look like? | 0:23:52 | 0:23:54 | |
It would be six at each end. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
Well, why should Australian football be so different? | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
I'm going to say eight. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:05 | |
I don't know how you got to that answer... | 0:24:05 | 0:24:07 | |
-Four at each end. -Can anybody help us here? | 0:24:08 | 0:24:11 | |
Who's got the sight on this? | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
At each end, they've got two very tall central posts, | 0:24:13 | 0:24:18 | |
and if you kick the ball through there you get a certain score. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:21 | |
And they have on the other side, on the outside, | 0:24:21 | 0:24:24 | |
two smaller ones, | 0:24:24 | 0:24:25 | |
and if you go through there you get a behind, which is a lower score. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:28 | |
So there are different ways you can score. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:30 | |
But there are four posts at each end. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:33 | |
I've got that, but now I'm visualising two tall posts, | 0:24:33 | 0:24:35 | |
plus two... | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
-Shorter ones. -Oh, so it's only two shorter ones? | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
-At each end. -So that's four at each end, OK. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
Four vertical posts. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:43 | |
Four vertical posts - two tall, two short. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:45 | |
It's simple as that, Judith, Pat's explained it. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
Four vertical posts - two tall, two short - at each end. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:52 | |
-That makes eight. -It makes eight, you've just nailed it. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
Oh! | 0:24:55 | 0:24:56 | |
I don't know what you were visualising, | 0:24:56 | 0:24:58 | |
I want to see inside your mind. | 0:24:58 | 0:24:59 | |
Eight is the right answer. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:02 | |
Oh! That's infuriating, isn't it Dan? | 0:25:02 | 0:25:04 | |
-Oh, yeah. -There's a certain - all respect to my friend here - | 0:25:04 | 0:25:08 | |
a certain sporting deficit, you've just got to exploit it. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:11 | |
Get this right to stay in. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:13 | |
Before Adam Peaty in 2016, Dan, | 0:25:13 | 0:25:17 | |
who was the last British man to win an Olympic gold medal in swimming? | 0:25:17 | 0:25:22 | |
I can remember Duncan Goodhew | 0:25:26 | 0:25:30 | |
winning a few medals in swimming, as I was a keen swimmer | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
when I was younger. I don't know too much about David Wilkie, | 0:25:32 | 0:25:37 | |
but I know that Adrian Moorhouse | 0:25:37 | 0:25:42 | |
I think won a medal at a major championships, | 0:25:42 | 0:25:44 | |
and is probably the strongest standout name | 0:25:44 | 0:25:47 | |
at an Olympic Games before Adam Peaty. | 0:25:47 | 0:25:50 | |
So my answer is Adrian Moorhouse. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:52 | |
Great quizzing, you're right. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:53 | |
Adrian Moorhouse is correct. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:56 | |
So, level, but Judith has this question in hand. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
Which British competitor won medals in both athletics and in cycling | 0:25:59 | 0:26:04 | |
at the 2016 Paralympic Games? | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
Oh, dear. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:14 | |
Both athletics and cycling. | 0:26:14 | 0:26:16 | |
Um... | 0:26:16 | 0:26:18 | |
I think it's Kadeena Cox. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
Let's check with our Challengers here. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:24 | |
-Yeah. -Sadly, yes. -Kadeena. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:26 | |
"Sadly, yes," it is Kadeena Cox, you got three out of three. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:30 | |
She is very good at that, Dan. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
She just... Tiny little inkling... | 0:26:32 | 0:26:34 | |
I know, isn't she? Yeah. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:36 | |
Just that second question. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:39 | |
I was just thinking, I think you knew Nick Skelton as well. | 0:26:39 | 0:26:42 | |
Dan, sorry, beaten by our Egghead. Judith will be in the final. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:45 | |
So come back to us, we've got one more round to play. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:47 | |
Judith, I know we got into a bit of a tangle there. | 0:26:49 | 0:26:51 | |
After the game today, we'll do a bit of a sketch. | 0:26:51 | 0:26:54 | |
-A drawing of it? Yes. -Maybe Pat can do it for us, | 0:26:54 | 0:26:57 | |
and we can all see exactly how these posts work. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:00 | |
I'll look it up online, the rules and everything. | 0:27:00 | 0:27:02 | |
Yes, and then just have an idea of the posts. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:05 | |
-Yes. -You can have a look at them. OK. As it stands, | 0:27:05 | 0:27:07 | |
the Para-Rangers have lost three brains from the final round. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
The Eggheads, rather annoyingly, haven't lost one yet. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:13 | |
The next subject is Geography. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:15 | |
PARA-RANGERS GROAN AND LAUGH | 0:27:15 | 0:27:17 | |
So it's going to be Danny or Stef. | 0:27:17 | 0:27:19 | |
Right, I think... | 0:27:19 | 0:27:20 | |
Shall we let them choose? | 0:27:20 | 0:27:21 | |
-Maybe, yeah! -Guys, choose. | 0:27:21 | 0:27:24 | |
-You want us to choose? -Who's better at general knowledge? | 0:27:24 | 0:27:26 | |
Who's the most travelled out of you? | 0:27:26 | 0:27:28 | |
That doesn't work with geography, does it? | 0:27:28 | 0:27:30 | |
No, but you'd have visited places and you might pick up things. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:33 | |
-DANNY: -I'm happy to go if you don't want to do it. | 0:27:33 | 0:27:36 | |
-Let's let the team choose. -You can choose. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |
One of us has got to do the general knowledge at the end, so... | 0:27:39 | 0:27:42 | |
As in the one who goes last is going to have to face... | 0:27:42 | 0:27:45 | |
I know, all five, it's really scary! | 0:27:45 | 0:27:47 | |
-Rock, paper, scissors? -Yeah, yeah! | 0:27:49 | 0:27:51 | |
Go for it. One, two, three. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:53 | |
-OK... MEGAN: -You're going! -Stone blunts scissors! | 0:27:53 | 0:27:56 | |
-So I'm going, right? -Stef, you're going. | 0:27:56 | 0:27:58 | |
-Good luck, Stef. -Brilliant. Choose an Egghead. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:01 | |
You can have either Pat or Lisa. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:03 | |
Pat looks so happy and eager! | 0:28:03 | 0:28:06 | |
Pat looks quite nice. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:07 | |
Yeah, I feel like hanging out with Pat in the booth. | 0:28:07 | 0:28:09 | |
-I'm going to go with Pat. -OK. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 | |
Stef from the Para-Rangers taking on Pat from the Eggheads. | 0:28:11 | 0:28:13 | |
Our last round here. | 0:28:13 | 0:28:15 | |
To ensure there is no conferring, please go to the Question Room. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:20 | |
Stef, I thought you were probably the natural choice for Geography, | 0:28:20 | 0:28:23 | |
cos you've lived all over, haven't you? | 0:28:23 | 0:28:25 | |
See, now you're setting me up! | 0:28:25 | 0:28:27 | |
I have. So, the short version is I was born in New Zealand | 0:28:27 | 0:28:32 | |
to British parents, who emigrated to Canada. | 0:28:32 | 0:28:35 | |
I then married a Canadian who was living in Dallas, Texas | 0:28:35 | 0:28:38 | |
and then moved back to the UK in 2010. | 0:28:38 | 0:28:40 | |
And you came back to the UK to compete and live and all of that? | 0:28:40 | 0:28:43 | |
Yes, yeah. And so I was living and training in London | 0:28:43 | 0:28:46 | |
ahead of London 2012. | 0:28:46 | 0:28:48 | |
And you were always very sporty, weren't you? | 0:28:48 | 0:28:50 | |
It was just a matter of working out exactly which one to go for. | 0:28:50 | 0:28:53 | |
It was. I played all sorts of sports, | 0:28:53 | 0:28:55 | |
but absolutely fell in love with rugby when I was 12. | 0:28:55 | 0:28:59 | |
That was actually my original dream, I wanted to play internationally, | 0:28:59 | 0:29:02 | |
and then I was in a boating accident, | 0:29:02 | 0:29:05 | |
when I lost part of my right leg. | 0:29:05 | 0:29:07 | |
That was... I couldn't play rugby any more, | 0:29:07 | 0:29:10 | |
but I had always been quite fast, and so someone said, | 0:29:10 | 0:29:13 | |
"Why don't you go and see how fast you still are?" | 0:29:13 | 0:29:15 | |
And it's worked out brilliantly. | 0:29:15 | 0:29:17 | |
I know that you won long jump silver at London 2012, you were at Rio, | 0:29:17 | 0:29:22 | |
you're the reigning European long jump champion, | 0:29:22 | 0:29:25 | |
five-time world record holder. My goodness me! | 0:29:25 | 0:29:27 | |
Yeah, it's funny, you know, | 0:29:28 | 0:29:30 | |
at that moment you think that you've lost your dream, | 0:29:30 | 0:29:33 | |
and then actually it comes back to you | 0:29:33 | 0:29:35 | |
in the most unexpected way possible. | 0:29:35 | 0:29:36 | |
Well, that's one of the reasons, I'm guessing, | 0:29:36 | 0:29:38 | |
why you speak motivationally as well. | 0:29:38 | 0:29:40 | |
Yeah, I think it's... | 0:29:40 | 0:29:41 | |
The reality is, life is hard. | 0:29:43 | 0:29:44 | |
You know, it's hard for everyone, and sometimes we just need reminding | 0:29:44 | 0:29:48 | |
that, you know, it's good to be forced to grow, | 0:29:48 | 0:29:51 | |
and to learn new things about yourself. | 0:29:51 | 0:29:53 | |
Even though it's hard, | 0:29:53 | 0:29:56 | |
it's that idea of overcoming and becoming a better version of you. | 0:29:56 | 0:29:59 | |
I know you also work as a fashion model, | 0:29:59 | 0:30:01 | |
and have been nicknamed "the Blade Stunner". | 0:30:01 | 0:30:03 | |
Yeah, so about... | 0:30:03 | 0:30:05 | |
In 2015 I was asked if I wanted to walk the London Fashion Week runway, | 0:30:05 | 0:30:11 | |
which was hugely nerve-racking. | 0:30:11 | 0:30:13 | |
But that's part of the great thing about being in sport, | 0:30:13 | 0:30:15 | |
you get asked to do all sorts of things | 0:30:15 | 0:30:17 | |
that you never would have thought possible. | 0:30:17 | 0:30:20 | |
And I just have a policy of saying "yes" to everything at least once! | 0:30:20 | 0:30:24 | |
-Like Eggheads! -Well, we are so glad you did, | 0:30:24 | 0:30:27 | |
and it's inspiring listening to you. | 0:30:27 | 0:30:29 | |
So, you're up against Pat, and it's Geography. | 0:30:29 | 0:30:32 | |
I'm hoping we get a bit of New Zealand or Canada | 0:30:32 | 0:30:34 | |
-or one of your many... -Please, yes! -..your many countries. | 0:30:34 | 0:30:37 | |
Would you like to go first or second against Pat, Stef? | 0:30:37 | 0:30:40 | |
I think I would like to go first. | 0:30:40 | 0:30:43 | |
Stef, here we go. Geography, your first question. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:49 | |
What is the approximate population of China? | 0:30:49 | 0:30:52 | |
Erm, I think... | 0:30:57 | 0:31:00 | |
14 and 140 million are just way too small. | 0:31:00 | 0:31:03 | |
I know in India it's at least a billion, | 0:31:03 | 0:31:05 | |
and China's bigger than India. Based on the results from the Paralympics | 0:31:05 | 0:31:08 | |
and how well China always does and tops the table, | 0:31:08 | 0:31:11 | |
I'm going to go with 1.4 billion. | 0:31:11 | 0:31:13 | |
1.4 billion is quite right. | 0:31:13 | 0:31:15 | |
Eggheads, is that the most populous country in the world, 1.4 billion? | 0:31:15 | 0:31:19 | |
It's reckoned that India will overtake it | 0:31:19 | 0:31:21 | |
-by the middle of the 21st century. -Oh, really? -Yeah. | 0:31:21 | 0:31:24 | |
It's not so far off, really, in those large terms. | 0:31:24 | 0:31:28 | |
OK, Pat, your question. Which of these rivers is the longest? | 0:31:28 | 0:31:31 | |
Well, the Nile is the longest of all rivers, so it's the Nile. | 0:31:34 | 0:31:39 | |
The Nile is the longest of all, quite right. | 0:31:39 | 0:31:42 | |
They just know these facts. | 0:31:42 | 0:31:44 | |
The Nile is the longest of all. | 0:31:44 | 0:31:45 | |
I try and remember, Stef, and he says it, | 0:31:45 | 0:31:47 | |
and next week I'll have forgotten. | 0:31:47 | 0:31:50 | |
OK, your question. What is the capital of Sicily? | 0:31:50 | 0:31:52 | |
Erm...I've not been there. | 0:31:58 | 0:32:01 | |
I feel like Naples is a city in Italy. | 0:32:02 | 0:32:05 | |
I think I'm going to go with... | 0:32:06 | 0:32:07 | |
-..Cagliari. -Cagliari is not it. | 0:32:09 | 0:32:12 | |
-Ugh! -It's Palermo. Just trying to work this out, Pat. | 0:32:12 | 0:32:14 | |
Is Cagliari in the Italian mainland? | 0:32:14 | 0:32:17 | |
It's on the Italian island of Sardinia. | 0:32:17 | 0:32:19 | |
And so there's two islands, Sicily and Sardinia? | 0:32:19 | 0:32:22 | |
-Two big islands. -Yeah. | 0:32:22 | 0:32:24 | |
Sardinia in the north and Sicily just off the toe of Italy. | 0:32:24 | 0:32:27 | |
So we've got Cagliari is the capital of one, | 0:32:27 | 0:32:29 | |
and Palermo is the capital of the other? | 0:32:29 | 0:32:31 | |
And Naples is on the mainland. | 0:32:31 | 0:32:33 | |
That's right, OK. | 0:32:33 | 0:32:34 | |
Sorry, Stef, that's a bit of a stinker there. | 0:32:34 | 0:32:36 | |
Palermo is the answer. | 0:32:36 | 0:32:38 | |
OK, we go back to you, Pat. | 0:32:38 | 0:32:41 | |
The Vaal is a major river in which country? | 0:32:41 | 0:32:44 | |
It's spelt V-A-A-L. | 0:32:44 | 0:32:46 | |
Well, that's quite a German/Dutch sounding name, | 0:32:48 | 0:32:52 | |
and it leads to the area of South Africa called the Transvaal, | 0:32:52 | 0:32:56 | |
which is that area beyond the River Vaal. | 0:32:56 | 0:32:59 | |
It's in South Africa. | 0:32:59 | 0:33:01 | |
South Africa is correct. | 0:33:01 | 0:33:03 | |
He's taken the lead. | 0:33:03 | 0:33:04 | |
Got to get this one right to stay in, | 0:33:04 | 0:33:07 | |
or Danny's going to be lonely in the final round! | 0:33:07 | 0:33:11 | |
Come on, Stef, we're rooting for you here. | 0:33:11 | 0:33:14 | |
Which geographical feature in Africa has a local name meaning | 0:33:14 | 0:33:18 | |
"the smoke that thunders"? | 0:33:18 | 0:33:20 | |
I mean, I've not really heard that, but, I mean, | 0:33:26 | 0:33:29 | |
"the smoke that thunders"... | 0:33:29 | 0:33:31 | |
I mean, I associate smoke with some sort of volcano, | 0:33:31 | 0:33:35 | |
some sort of mountain... | 0:33:35 | 0:33:36 | |
But then Victoria Falls, maybe as it comes down, it's the mist. | 0:33:36 | 0:33:41 | |
Obviously, no, people climb Mount Kilimanjaro, | 0:33:41 | 0:33:44 | |
it can't be some sort of active volcano. | 0:33:44 | 0:33:45 | |
I think I'm going to have to go with... | 0:33:45 | 0:33:48 | |
And then I'm torn, the Sahara Desert, what if there's a sandstorm? | 0:33:48 | 0:33:51 | |
That can kind of look like smoke. | 0:33:51 | 0:33:53 | |
I think I'm going to go with Victoria Falls. | 0:33:53 | 0:33:56 | |
Victoria Falls is the correct answer. | 0:33:56 | 0:33:59 | |
SHE EXHALES Well done! | 0:33:59 | 0:34:01 | |
I think, I'm guessing, but I reckon your reasoning is 100% right. | 0:34:01 | 0:34:05 | |
OK. | 0:34:05 | 0:34:06 | |
Pat, your question. You can take the round with this, | 0:34:06 | 0:34:08 | |
although we're secretly hoping you don't. | 0:34:08 | 0:34:11 | |
What is the official title of the country of San Marino? | 0:34:11 | 0:34:13 | |
I... It's one of the oldest republics... | 0:34:24 | 0:34:27 | |
in Europe, which suggests the rightmost answer. | 0:34:27 | 0:34:33 | |
I don't think it's got either a prince or a duke. | 0:34:33 | 0:34:37 | |
I think it dates back to around | 0:34:37 | 0:34:39 | |
the turn of the millennium as a republic, | 0:34:39 | 0:34:41 | |
so the Most Serene Republic of San Marino | 0:34:41 | 0:34:44 | |
looks like the best option there. | 0:34:44 | 0:34:47 | |
The Most Serene Republic of San Marino. | 0:34:47 | 0:34:49 | |
Eggheads, is he right? | 0:34:49 | 0:34:50 | |
-Yeah. -You're right, Pat. | 0:34:50 | 0:34:53 | |
Three out of three. | 0:34:53 | 0:34:54 | |
It means you've been beaten by our Egghead and have been knocked out, | 0:34:54 | 0:34:57 | |
and it's going to be a lonely time in the final for Danny. | 0:34:57 | 0:35:00 | |
But he can still do it, there's no question about that! | 0:35:00 | 0:35:03 | |
Please return to your teams and we'll see what happens. | 0:35:03 | 0:35:05 | |
So, this is what we have been playing towards, | 0:35:07 | 0:35:09 | |
it is time for our final round, as always it's general knowledge. | 0:35:09 | 0:35:12 | |
But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed | 0:35:12 | 0:35:15 | |
to take part in this round. | 0:35:15 | 0:35:17 | |
So, Megan, Jonathan, Stef and Dan from the Para-Rangers, I'm so sorry, | 0:35:17 | 0:35:21 | |
you've got to leave the studio. | 0:35:21 | 0:35:23 | |
Well, Danny, I know it wasn't supposed to be like this. | 0:35:25 | 0:35:28 | |
I feel a little bit alone! | 0:35:28 | 0:35:30 | |
You're used to adversity. | 0:35:30 | 0:35:32 | |
You were a sports person, you had your accident, and you still are, | 0:35:32 | 0:35:36 | |
and in fact a very, very successful one. | 0:35:36 | 0:35:38 | |
Yeah, I mean, sport's always been my life. | 0:35:38 | 0:35:40 | |
I've always played it, I played rugby when I was younger, | 0:35:40 | 0:35:43 | |
ran when I was younger, played rugby after my accident. | 0:35:43 | 0:35:47 | |
I still sort of try to play rugby now, just a lot slower. | 0:35:47 | 0:35:52 | |
I've seen film of you... | 0:35:52 | 0:35:53 | |
Cos a lot of people who play rugby would say, | 0:35:53 | 0:35:55 | |
"How can you play rugby with one arm?" | 0:35:55 | 0:35:57 | |
But I've actually seen film of you scoring a try. | 0:35:57 | 0:35:59 | |
Yeah, that happens a lot less nowadays, the scoring side to it. | 0:35:59 | 0:36:02 | |
I've got two children that play rugby as well, | 0:36:02 | 0:36:04 | |
and I'm very proud that they're rugby players, | 0:36:04 | 0:36:06 | |
and they tend to score more a week than I get in a season, | 0:36:06 | 0:36:09 | |
but I'm just trying to keep in as long as I can. | 0:36:09 | 0:36:12 | |
I know you won 800 metres gold at Athens. | 0:36:12 | 0:36:15 | |
Was that your proudest moment? | 0:36:15 | 0:36:17 | |
Probably, yeah. I mean, there's been a few. | 0:36:17 | 0:36:19 | |
That was because it was the culmination | 0:36:19 | 0:36:21 | |
of all the years in the sport. | 0:36:21 | 0:36:23 | |
I've been in international athletics since '98, | 0:36:23 | 0:36:25 | |
and I won my first Paralympic gold in 2004, | 0:36:25 | 0:36:28 | |
I got the bronze four years before that in Sydney. | 0:36:28 | 0:36:31 | |
But probably the proudest was when I was the flag bearer in 2008, | 0:36:31 | 0:36:34 | |
cos to be nominated by your team and to lead your team out | 0:36:34 | 0:36:37 | |
in the opening ceremony is probably | 0:36:37 | 0:36:39 | |
the greatest honour you can ever have | 0:36:39 | 0:36:41 | |
bestowed upon you, and that was probably my proudest moment. | 0:36:41 | 0:36:44 | |
I saw that, and I saw how emotional you were during it. | 0:36:44 | 0:36:47 | |
I saw as you walked with it, | 0:36:47 | 0:36:48 | |
you just looked very, very, well, tearful, I guess. | 0:36:48 | 0:36:50 | |
It is, I mean, to walk out with the Union Jack, | 0:36:50 | 0:36:55 | |
and I'd had a really turbulent year with injury, | 0:36:55 | 0:36:58 | |
and I'd only kind of just made it onto the team. | 0:36:58 | 0:37:00 | |
And then, sadly, off the back of that, the very next day, | 0:37:00 | 0:37:04 | |
less than 24 hours after that huge high, I tore my calf muscle, | 0:37:04 | 0:37:08 | |
and that was my Beijing Games over. | 0:37:08 | 0:37:11 | |
But having that honour was huge. | 0:37:11 | 0:37:13 | |
We'll have people watching who've had some kind of reverse in life, | 0:37:13 | 0:37:16 | |
and yours, you know, you lost your arm in a road crash. | 0:37:16 | 0:37:19 | |
So, what's your key piece of advice? | 0:37:19 | 0:37:21 | |
Cos some people just don't recover from those kinds of things. | 0:37:21 | 0:37:24 | |
I've always had this belief that things happen for reasons. | 0:37:24 | 0:37:28 | |
It's not a spiritual belief, it's just things happen for reasons. | 0:37:28 | 0:37:32 | |
You make something out of it, and that's what I did. | 0:37:32 | 0:37:34 | |
The way I always got through it was I always set myself | 0:37:34 | 0:37:37 | |
that next little goal, that next little stepping stone. | 0:37:37 | 0:37:40 | |
Rugby was always my life, and although it sounds a bit Hollywood, | 0:37:40 | 0:37:43 | |
it's the truth, I promise you. | 0:37:43 | 0:37:45 | |
I was laying in a ditch, minus... Well, I was holding my arm. | 0:37:45 | 0:37:48 | |
The lady that came to my aid, who just heard the accident, | 0:37:48 | 0:37:52 | |
I had a conversation with her about my rugby career being over. | 0:37:52 | 0:37:57 | |
For me, rugby was everything. | 0:37:57 | 0:37:58 | |
So that was the first thing for me, was to get back on the pitch, | 0:37:58 | 0:38:01 | |
and I did that within six months. | 0:38:01 | 0:38:03 | |
And then the athletics finally came along. | 0:38:03 | 0:38:05 | |
It's always been the next thing to aim for, | 0:38:05 | 0:38:07 | |
and that's kind of what I've always done, | 0:38:07 | 0:38:09 | |
I've always aimed for the next thing. | 0:38:09 | 0:38:10 | |
Brilliant. Well, here we are with the very next thing. | 0:38:10 | 0:38:13 | |
Oh, this was the next thing on my list, yeah! | 0:38:13 | 0:38:15 | |
JEREMY LAUGHS | 0:38:15 | 0:38:16 | |
Good luck. You can do it, we've seen them, all five against one player, | 0:38:16 | 0:38:20 | |
and then the single player takes them down. | 0:38:20 | 0:38:22 | |
It's happened. You're now playing to win the Para-Rangers £8,000. | 0:38:22 | 0:38:26 | |
Lisa, Steve, Pat, Kevin, Judith, | 0:38:26 | 0:38:27 | |
you're playing for something that money can't buy, | 0:38:27 | 0:38:30 | |
which is the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:38:30 | 0:38:32 | |
As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn. | 0:38:32 | 0:38:35 | |
This time they're all general knowledge. | 0:38:35 | 0:38:37 | |
You may confer. Sorry, that doesn't help you, Danny. | 0:38:37 | 0:38:40 | |
The question is - can your one brain defeat these five? | 0:38:40 | 0:38:43 | |
I'm sure it's possible. | 0:38:43 | 0:38:45 | |
Would you like to go first or second? | 0:38:45 | 0:38:47 | |
Do you know what? Going first hasn't gone well for my team today, | 0:38:47 | 0:38:51 | |
so, I'm probably going to kick myself, | 0:38:51 | 0:38:53 | |
but I'm going to say go second. | 0:38:53 | 0:38:54 | |
OK. So, Eggheads have the first question, and here we go. | 0:38:59 | 0:39:01 | |
Which of these words is a name for a confused fight or scuffle? | 0:39:01 | 0:39:05 | |
Sassafras is an American drink, isn't it? | 0:39:11 | 0:39:14 | |
-Melee? -Melee. | 0:39:14 | 0:39:16 | |
Sounds good to me, kids. | 0:39:16 | 0:39:19 | |
That's a melee, Jeremy. | 0:39:19 | 0:39:20 | |
Melee is right. OK, Danny, your question. | 0:39:20 | 0:39:23 | |
What is the name of the self-made millionaire | 0:39:23 | 0:39:25 | |
who adopts the title character in the stage musical Annie? | 0:39:25 | 0:39:29 | |
I... | 0:39:36 | 0:39:38 | |
Funnily enough, Annie is not a stage show I'd probably have watched. | 0:39:38 | 0:39:41 | |
I'm going to take a massive guess and say Charles Foster Kane. | 0:39:43 | 0:39:47 | |
Now, Charles Foster Kane I think might have been Citizen Kane. | 0:39:48 | 0:39:52 | |
-Is that right, Eggheads? -Mm-hmm. | 0:39:52 | 0:39:54 | |
-Who's Montgomery Burns? -From The Simpsons. | 0:39:54 | 0:39:56 | |
From The Simpsons, I should know that. | 0:39:56 | 0:39:59 | |
The answer is Daddy Warbucks. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:01 | |
Not one you've shown your kids yet? | 0:40:01 | 0:40:02 | |
-Not yet, no. I'm going to! -I haven't either. | 0:40:02 | 0:40:06 | |
Eggheads, to go two ahead, | 0:40:07 | 0:40:10 | |
what was the nickname of the French singer Edith Piaf? | 0:40:10 | 0:40:14 | |
-Little Sparrow. -Little Sparrow. | 0:40:18 | 0:40:20 | |
-The Sparrow? -Yeah, Little Sparrow. | 0:40:20 | 0:40:22 | |
She was the Little Sparrow. | 0:40:23 | 0:40:25 | |
As we indeed call you, Lisa, | 0:40:25 | 0:40:27 | |
with your singing skills. | 0:40:27 | 0:40:29 | |
Not-So-Little Sparrow, yeah. | 0:40:29 | 0:40:31 | |
The Little Sparrow is right. | 0:40:31 | 0:40:34 | |
Now, they've gone two ahead a bit too quickly for our comfort here. | 0:40:34 | 0:40:38 | |
Danny, just get this one right to stay in. | 0:40:38 | 0:40:41 | |
The Reichenbach Falls in Switzerland are the setting | 0:40:41 | 0:40:46 | |
for a climactic battle featuring which fictional character? | 0:40:46 | 0:40:50 | |
The Reichenbach Falls, I can spell that if you like, in Switzerland, | 0:40:56 | 0:41:00 | |
is the setting for a climactic battle | 0:41:00 | 0:41:02 | |
featuring which fictional character? | 0:41:02 | 0:41:03 | |
I think it's either Holmes or Bond and there was... | 0:41:05 | 0:41:09 | |
It was quite a recent one, wasn't it, | 0:41:09 | 0:41:11 | |
when he let someone go over the edge? | 0:41:11 | 0:41:14 | |
I think... | 0:41:14 | 0:41:16 | |
..I'm going to go Sherlock Holmes. | 0:41:18 | 0:41:20 | |
This is a famous battle with... | 0:41:20 | 0:41:22 | |
Is it Moriarty? | 0:41:22 | 0:41:23 | |
-Yeah. -Sherlock Holmes is right. | 0:41:23 | 0:41:26 | |
Nicely done, Danny, | 0:41:26 | 0:41:27 | |
cos it would have been easy to go for Tarzan there. | 0:41:27 | 0:41:30 | |
Right, Eggheads, you can take it with this answer. | 0:41:30 | 0:41:32 | |
I really hope you don't. | 0:41:32 | 0:41:34 | |
Oops, I blurted out my own feelings! | 0:41:34 | 0:41:36 | |
Here's your question. | 0:41:36 | 0:41:37 | |
Which of these is a common translation | 0:41:37 | 0:41:40 | |
of the German word "Tannenbaum". | 0:41:40 | 0:41:42 | |
Christmas tree. | 0:41:45 | 0:41:47 | |
It's Christmas tree, isn't it? | 0:41:47 | 0:41:48 | |
"O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum, how lovely are your branches." | 0:41:48 | 0:41:51 | |
It's not really working for reindeer or Father Christmas, is it? | 0:41:51 | 0:41:56 | |
"Baum" is the German word for "tree", it's a Christmas tree. | 0:41:56 | 0:41:59 | |
What do you think? | 0:41:59 | 0:42:00 | |
I think their smiles as soon as you said the word | 0:42:00 | 0:42:02 | |
-gave it away. -Yeah, that's right. | 0:42:02 | 0:42:04 | |
It's when they start to know the answer before I've said the options, | 0:42:04 | 0:42:07 | |
that's the thing that gets me every time! | 0:42:07 | 0:42:09 | |
If you've got this right, the contest is over. | 0:42:09 | 0:42:12 | |
The correct answer is Christmas tree. | 0:42:12 | 0:42:14 | |
We say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won. | 0:42:14 | 0:42:17 | |
I think the Annie one was tricky at the start. | 0:42:23 | 0:42:25 | |
-I'm not an Annie man. -I think one or two | 0:42:25 | 0:42:27 | |
of the other celeb teams have been down to a single person. | 0:42:27 | 0:42:29 | |
It's very hard when you can't confer. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:31 | |
But Danny, thank you so much. | 0:42:31 | 0:42:32 | |
-Pleasure. -I hope you enjoyed it. -It was wonderful, yeah. | 0:42:32 | 0:42:35 | |
It's lovely to stand up against you guys... | 0:42:35 | 0:42:38 | |
-on my own! -With the firepower here, | 0:42:38 | 0:42:40 | |
sometimes when they get something they can't get, | 0:42:40 | 0:42:42 | |
and they're truffling around, is fascinating to watch. | 0:42:42 | 0:42:45 | |
Thank you for playing, Para-Rangers. | 0:42:45 | 0:42:48 | |
-Lovely to see you! -Bye. | 0:42:48 | 0:42:49 | |
Cheers for your help, guys! | 0:42:49 | 0:42:51 | |
Commiserations, Challengers, | 0:42:51 | 0:42:53 | |
the Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them, most of the time. | 0:42:53 | 0:42:56 | |
This winning streak against the celebrities continues. | 0:42:56 | 0:42:59 | |
So the Challengers don't go home | 0:42:59 | 0:43:01 | |
with the £8,000 for their charities. | 0:43:01 | 0:43:03 | |
We'll roll that over, shall we, to our next celebrity show? | 0:43:03 | 0:43:06 | |
Eggheads, congratulations. | 0:43:06 | 0:43:08 | |
Are you going to get to the very end of the celeb shows without losing? | 0:43:08 | 0:43:12 | |
I wonder. Join us next time | 0:43:12 | 0:43:14 | |
to see if a new team of celebrity Challengers | 0:43:14 | 0:43:16 | |
have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. | 0:43:16 | 0:43:18 | |
There'll be £9,000 to play for. We're nearly in five figures! | 0:43:18 | 0:43:22 | |
Until then, goodbye! | 0:43:22 | 0:43:24 |
