0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:08 > 0:00:14Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:16 > 0:00:20The question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:26 > 0:00:30attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:36Their quiz pedigree is well-known as they've won some of the toughest quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39Taking on their awesome might today
0:00:39 > 0:00:41are the Para Equestrian Drivers.
0:00:41 > 0:00:45Everyone on the team competes in the sport of equestrian driving
0:00:45 > 0:00:49which team captain Terry describes as being like Ben-Hur.
0:00:49 > 0:00:54- Let's meet them.- Hi, I'm Terry, I'm 53 and a retired lorry driver.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58Hi, I'm Heather, I'm 47 and I'm a newsroom journalist.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02Hi, I'm James, I'm 43 and a retail developer.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Hi, I'm Margaret, I'm 34 and I'm a housewife.
0:01:05 > 0:01:10Hi, I'm Lindsey, I'm 33 and an office administrator.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13- Terry and team, welcome. - Hi.- So like Ben-Hur - explain.
0:01:13 > 0:01:20Oh, it's just fast and furious. It's three-day eventing basically with a carriage on the back.
0:01:20 > 0:01:27- Did you all meet through it?- Yes, we've all competed against each other at club and national level.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30And we all compete together in internationals.
0:01:30 > 0:01:36- Are you big Eggheads fans? - Yeah.- Have you got a strategy here? - Sort of.- Kind of.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Good luck anyway.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41Every day, £1,000 is up for grabs for our challengers,
0:01:41 > 0:01:47but if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:47 > 0:01:52Para Equestrian Drivers, the Eggheads have won the last four games,
0:01:52 > 0:01:54so £5,000 says you can't beat them.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58The first head-to-head battle is on Geography.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Who would like this?
0:02:00 > 0:02:03- How do you feel about Geography? - I don't know.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Now, the plan, where was the plan?
0:02:07 > 0:02:10The plan was that we were all sacrificial lambs really.
0:02:10 > 0:02:16Unless a subject came up that we were really confident about,
0:02:16 > 0:02:20- we were going to sacrifice one of the others.- But it's not me.
0:02:20 > 0:02:25- So...- Lindsey?- Lindsey? - Yeah, I'll have a go.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29- OK, Lindsey, who would you like to play against?- Daphne?
0:02:29 > 0:02:34- Yeah.- Daphne.- So, Lindsey from the Para Equestrian Drivers versus Daphne from the Eggheads.
0:02:34 > 0:02:40To make sure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44Lindsey, you've spent time on horses in the USA, I gather?
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Yeah, I joined a group of international drivers
0:02:47 > 0:02:52and we travelled the last 500 miles across America with horses.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54- How terrific!- It was amazing.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58We'll see if Geography throws up something in that area.
0:02:58 > 0:03:04Three multiple-choice questions on Geography. Whoever answers the most questions correctly is the winner.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08- Lindsey, you can choose the first or the second set.- First set, please.
0:03:11 > 0:03:16Here we go. Palermo is the capital of which Mediterranean island?
0:03:19 > 0:03:22I don't think it's Majorca.
0:03:25 > 0:03:29I think, this is just a guess,
0:03:29 > 0:03:32it's going to be...
0:03:33 > 0:03:35..Sicily.
0:03:35 > 0:03:39Spot-on. Well done. Sicily is correct.
0:03:39 > 0:03:44Daphne, which English city is located on the River Soar?
0:03:49 > 0:03:53I think that's Leicester.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56And I think that is right.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58One point each.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02Lindsey, where is the town of Sheerness located?
0:04:06 > 0:04:10I know for a fact it's not the Isle of Wight.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Isle of Dogs is London,
0:04:12 > 0:04:15so, a process of elimination,
0:04:15 > 0:04:20I think it's going to be Isle of Sheppey... And it's not.
0:04:20 > 0:04:26Why do you say that? Absolutely right. Isle of Sheppey is correct.
0:04:26 > 0:04:31Daphne, the National Railway Museum is in which city?
0:04:34 > 0:04:36It's quite funny, actually,
0:04:36 > 0:04:42because my son-in-law is going to take my husband there next month
0:04:42 > 0:04:44and they're going to York.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48They will find the National Railway Museum in York. Well done.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51York it is. Lindsey, keep the pressure on
0:04:51 > 0:04:56and get this one right. You never know, Daphne could go to pieces.
0:04:56 > 0:05:01The word "eustasy" refers to global changes in what?
0:05:01 > 0:05:05This is spelt E-U-S-T-A-S-Y.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11I'm just thinking of the word.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14I don't know that it's temperature.
0:05:18 > 0:05:23I think it's going to be atmospheric pressure.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Atmospheric pressure is your answer.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Let's see if the Eggheads know.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31- It's got to be sea level from the word.- Why?
0:05:31 > 0:05:35Words beginning with "eus", like "eustarine" is a saltwater crocodile,
0:05:35 > 0:05:38so it's going to be sea level.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42OK, I'm with you. Yes, sea level is the right answer, Lindsey.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Daphne, you get the round if you get this right.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50The Etosha Game Park is in which African country?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52E-T-O-S-H-A.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01SHE SIGHS
0:06:01 > 0:06:03E-T-O...
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Um...
0:06:05 > 0:06:08I don't know why,
0:06:08 > 0:06:13but I'm thinking it might be in Morocco.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Morocco...
0:06:16 > 0:06:21- Is wrong?- Is wrong. Etosha is in Namibia.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25- Right.- Two points each after three questions. The scores are level.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29We go off multiple choice and it gets a bit harder now, Lindsey.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33Sudden death. I need the answer from you. Here we go.
0:06:33 > 0:06:40The Grotta Azzurra, or Blue Grotto, is a famous tourist attraction on which Italian island?
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Um...
0:06:47 > 0:06:49I can honestly say...
0:06:52 > 0:06:54..I don't know.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57I don't know that part of...
0:06:57 > 0:06:59the, uh, obviously...
0:07:01 > 0:07:03No, I don't know.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05- Eggheads?- Capri.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08Capri is the answer.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12Daphne, if you get this right, you've taken the round.
0:07:12 > 0:07:17Snaefell is the highest peak on which British island?
0:07:17 > 0:07:19The Isle of Man.
0:07:19 > 0:07:24The Isle of Man is the right answer, Daphne, so you will be in the final.
0:07:24 > 0:07:29Lindsey, sorry, you won't be. She just pipped you at the post.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33Do both of you come back and rejoin your teams.
0:07:33 > 0:07:38So, as it stands, the challengers have lost one brain from the final round.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42The Eggheads have lost no brains. The next subject is Sport.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Which of you wants to play Sport?
0:07:45 > 0:07:48That is part of our cunning plan. That's James.
0:07:48 > 0:07:53- James against which Egghead? Not Daphne.- It's not going to be Daphne. It's going to be CJ.
0:07:53 > 0:07:59- Yeah, we reckon CJ.- James from the Para Equestrian Drivers versus CJ from the Eggheads.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:08:03 > 0:08:09- Three questions on Sport in turn. James, you can choose the first or second set.- First set, please.
0:08:12 > 0:08:18James, the striker Raul has scored over 300 goals for which football club?
0:08:23 > 0:08:26I know the answer to this. It's Real Madrid.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Spot-on. Real Madrid it is.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36CJ, how many gold medals were won by the sprinter Usain Bolt
0:08:36 > 0:08:39at the 2008 Olympic Games?
0:08:42 > 0:08:47- Just how many medals? - How many gold medals?
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Obviously, he's got the 100 and the 200 metres.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54I have to assume he was part of the 4 x 100 metres relay.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58I don't think he took part in any field events,
0:08:58 > 0:09:01so I'll just have to go for three.
0:09:01 > 0:09:07Three is right. Well done. Good stuff. Good work, Eggheads.
0:09:07 > 0:09:12James, over to you. Which team traditionally wears maroon caps for Test cricket?
0:09:17 > 0:09:21That will be the West Indies
0:09:21 > 0:09:25cos Viv Richards used to wear one.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29Spot-on. West Indies is correct. West Indies it is.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31CJ, your second question.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35Which jockey rode Nashwan to win the Epsom Derby in 1989?
0:09:42 > 0:09:44I don't know.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46The Derby, you say?
0:09:46 > 0:09:49- The Epsom Derby. - Yes, I've heard of that.
0:09:49 > 0:09:54- Nearly called The Bunbury. - Can't give you any points for that.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57I'll rule out Tommy Stack cos I think he was earlier.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Wasn't he associated with Red Rum?
0:10:01 > 0:10:03I don't know. Willie Carson.
0:10:03 > 0:10:07Willie Carson is your answer. James, do you know?
0:10:07 > 0:10:11I do cos I've actually got three flat horses. It is Willie Carson.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15- Well done.- Yeah, well done. You're right.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18OK, third question for you, James,
0:10:18 > 0:10:21to get the pressure on CJ.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25Which rugby league team is traditionally nicknamed The Robins
0:10:25 > 0:10:28for the broad red stripe on their jerseys?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Um, I can...
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Wigan play in red and white.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40Leeds don't. They play in blue and yellow.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Hull Kingston Rovers, I can't remember.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48So I'll have to go with Wigan cos they play in red and white.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50OK...
0:10:50 > 0:10:53- Terry?- I'm from Hull.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57It's... I'm from West Hull which is Hull FC
0:10:57 > 0:11:02and our bitter rivals are Hull Kingston Rovers which is The Robins.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05And the pattern is what on the jersey?
0:11:05 > 0:11:09- Stripes.- A broad stripe.- A big, broad stripe across the chest.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12James, he's right. It's Hull, it's not Wigan.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15So CJ has a chance to take the round.
0:11:15 > 0:11:23The Scottish motor-racing driver Jim Clark won the Formula One World Championship in 1963 and 1965,
0:11:23 > 0:11:26driving which type of car, CJ?
0:11:31 > 0:11:35I'm not absolutely sure, but I always associate Jim Clark with Lotus.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38And I knew the years.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40BRM...
0:11:42 > 0:11:46I always associate Jim Clark, Lotus. Those just seem to go together.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48So, Lotus.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51Lotus is the correct answer, CJ.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54Bad luck, James. You were beaten by our Egghead.
0:11:54 > 0:12:00You won't be able to help your team in the final round. Please come back and rejoin your team-mates.
0:12:00 > 0:12:05So, as it stands, the challengers have lost two brains from the final round.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09The Eggheads have lost no brains. The next subject is Film and TV.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Is that you?
0:12:11 > 0:12:16- I'll take that.- You fancy...? - I'll take that.- Margaret, OK.
0:12:16 > 0:12:20Margaret, who do you want to play against? Can't be CJ or Daphne.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23- Judith, please.- Judith, OK.
0:12:23 > 0:12:29Margaret from the Para Equestrian Drivers versus Judith from the Eggheads. Take your positions.
0:12:29 > 0:12:35- So, Margaret, you can choose the first or second set of questions.- First, please.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Here's your first question.
0:12:40 > 0:12:44Which genre of film has been referred to as "horse opera"?
0:12:47 > 0:12:51It's definitely not a thriller and I don't think it'd be a comedy,
0:12:51 > 0:12:54so it would have to be a western.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58- I'm really glad you got that right. - So am I.- Western is right.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02- I must say I haven't really heard that phrase.- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06The horses don't like it. They're just "neigh" sayers.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Listen to the sound of tumbleweed.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12I thought that was quite good myself.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15I heard distant laughter(!) Judith, your question.
0:13:15 > 0:13:22In which long-running medical TV drama did Alex Kingston play the role of Dr Elizabeth Corday?
0:13:27 > 0:13:31I think I know this one. I think it's ER.
0:13:31 > 0:13:35- You think it's ER? Is that your answer, Judith?- Er, yes.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38"Er, yes." It's, er, right.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41- Thank goodness for that! - Back to you, Margaret.
0:13:41 > 0:13:48Your second question. In the TV drama Hustle, what was the name of the character played by Marc Warren?
0:13:52 > 0:13:55It's not a programme I've seen.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59So I'll have to take a stab in the dark.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01Possibly Danny. But I don't know.
0:14:01 > 0:14:06- Let's see if any of your team-mates know. Anyone a big Hustle fan?- No.
0:14:06 > 0:14:11- Hustle, Hustle? No-one's seen it? Oh, Daphne knows.- It's Danny.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Danny is right. Danny is right.
0:14:13 > 0:14:18Judith, which actress played the role of Mary Kate Danaher
0:14:18 > 0:14:22opposite John Wayne in the 1952 film The Quiet Man?
0:14:29 > 0:14:33I think it's either Maureen O'Hara or Jean Simmons.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37I think it's Maureen O'Hara.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39I hope it's Maureen O'Hara.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43It is the right answer - Maureen O'Hara. Well done.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45Back to you, Margaret.
0:14:45 > 0:14:51The 2008 film Changeling starring Angelina Jolie
0:14:51 > 0:14:53was directed by whom?
0:14:58 > 0:15:00I don't think it was Clint Eastwood.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05I'm drawn to Oliver Stone.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08I don't recognise Ron Howard.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11I'll go with Oliver Stone, please.
0:15:11 > 0:15:16- Oliver Stone is the wrong answer. It was Clint Eastwood.- Was it?
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Judith, this to take the round.
0:15:19 > 0:15:25For which 2003 film did Sofia Coppola, daughter of director Francis Ford Coppola,
0:15:25 > 0:15:28win an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay?
0:15:35 > 0:15:38I know she was involved in Lost In Translation,
0:15:38 > 0:15:41so I'm going to say Lost In Translation.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Yes, you're right. Brilliant film too.
0:15:44 > 0:15:49Lost In Translation is correct. You have won the round. Congratulations.
0:15:49 > 0:15:54Margaret, you won't be able to join your team in the final round.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your team-mates.
0:15:57 > 0:16:02So our challengers have now lost three brains from the final round.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04The Eggheads have not lost any.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07The last subject is Music.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Which of you wants this?
0:16:09 > 0:16:14- It's got to be me. We're saving Terry for the last round.- OK, Heather.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Against who? It can't be CJ, Daphne or Judith.
0:16:17 > 0:16:23- I think we'll pick Chris. - OK, Heather from the Para Equestrian Drivers against Chris.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27- You love your music, don't you, Chris?- I absolutely adore The Sugababes, yes.
0:16:27 > 0:16:33To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.
0:16:33 > 0:16:39Good luck against Chris. Three questions on Music in turn. You can choose the first or second set.
0:16:39 > 0:16:44On the form of the team so far, I'll change tack and go second.
0:16:48 > 0:16:54Chris, Chrissie Hynde is well-known for performing lead vocals with which rock group?
0:16:58 > 0:17:01It wouldn't be Blondie. That was Debbie Harry.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04The Eurythmics is Dave Stewart and Annie Lennox,
0:17:04 > 0:17:07so it's got to be The Pretenders.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10That's right. Chrissie Hynde was in The Pretenders.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13Heather, your question.
0:17:13 > 0:17:19Which musical instrument takes its name from the German for "bell play"?
0:17:24 > 0:17:29Hmm. It's funny, when you're at home, you can scream the answers out.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32When you're sitting here, you don't know them.
0:17:32 > 0:17:36I'm sort of torn because I think the tuba has that kind of a shape.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39Then the glockenspiel...
0:17:40 > 0:17:42I'll go with tuba.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Tuba is wrong.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48- Actually, Eggheads, do you know? - Glockenspiel.
0:17:48 > 0:17:53- Because you strike it? - It literally means "bell play".
0:17:53 > 0:17:57- "Glocken" is "bells", "spiel" means "play".- I should've worked that out.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00- I was the same as you, Heather. I didn't see it.- Yes.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03Glockenspiel is the right answer.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Chris, which Joni Mitchell song starts with the lyrics,
0:18:06 > 0:18:10"They paved paradise and put up a parking lot"?
0:18:15 > 0:18:17# Don't it always seem to go
0:18:17 > 0:18:20# You don't know what you've got till it's gone... #
0:18:20 > 0:18:24- It's Big Yellow Taxi.- You've got to sing the right line. Go on.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26Continue your song.
0:18:27 > 0:18:32- # They've paved paradise and put up a parking lot... #- Well done.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Big Yellow Taxi is correct.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Can't offer you an extra point for massacring it.
0:18:37 > 0:18:43Heather, your question. In 1995, who was at the top of the UK singles chart
0:18:43 > 0:18:45for seven weeks with Think Twice?
0:18:50 > 0:18:54I couldn't even sing it for you if I wanted to,
0:18:54 > 0:18:56or if you wanted me to.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00I'm going to take a stab at...
0:19:00 > 0:19:02Shania Twain.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07Shania Twain it was not.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09Celine Dion is the answer there.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Can you sing that one, Chris?
0:19:12 > 0:19:14No!
0:19:14 > 0:19:18I can do My Heart Will Go On if I've had a few, but not Think Twice.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Please don't.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24Heather, there's no way back for you in this round.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Do both of you come back to the studio.
0:19:27 > 0:19:32This is what we've been playing towards - the final round which is General Knowledge.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Those who lost their head-to-heads
0:19:35 > 0:19:37can't take part in this round.
0:19:37 > 0:19:43So, Heather, James, Margaret and Lindsey from the Para Equestrian Drivers, please leave the studio.
0:19:45 > 0:19:49So, Terry, it's not just the Eggheads, it's the classic line-up.
0:19:49 > 0:19:54- It is.- How did we end up in this position facing this lot?- Exactly.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57- Where's all my friends gone? - They're cheering you on.
0:19:57 > 0:20:02- Let's see if we can squeak a miracle past them... - Finish it off.- Yeah, exactly.
0:20:02 > 0:20:07So you're playing to win the Para Equestrian Drivers £5,000.
0:20:07 > 0:20:13Judith, Kevin, CJ, Daphne and Chris, you're playing for the Eggheads' reputation.
0:20:13 > 0:20:18I'll ask each team three questions in turn and this time the questions are all general knowledge.
0:20:18 > 0:20:24- You're allowed to confer, but that doesn't help very much. - I can talk to myself.
0:20:24 > 0:20:30The question is, Terry, is your one brain better than the classic Eggheads' five brains?
0:20:30 > 0:20:33- Would you like to go first or second?- First, please.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37All the best.
0:20:38 > 0:20:43Terry, the surname of the Mexican revolutionary Emiliano Zapata
0:20:43 > 0:20:47has famously been used to refer to a type of what?
0:20:51 > 0:20:55Zapata... Viva Zapata!
0:20:57 > 0:21:02Um... All I can think of is...
0:21:02 > 0:21:07looking at the archetypal Mexican face, is the moustache.
0:21:07 > 0:21:12So I'm drawn to moustache.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16- I'm glad you are. Moustache is right. Well done.- Thank you.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19OK, Eggheads...
0:21:19 > 0:21:24For what does the letter C stand in the military acronym ANZAC?
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Australia and New Zealand Army Corps.
0:21:31 > 0:21:35It's the Australia and New Zealand Army Corps, so Corps.
0:21:35 > 0:21:40It very much is. Corps is correct. Well done. Back to you, Terry.
0:21:40 > 0:21:45Jay Jopling, the son of a former minister in Margaret Thatcher's government,
0:21:45 > 0:21:48is famous in what capacity?
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Well...
0:21:58 > 0:22:01I can't say I've heard of him either.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08I don't think it's fashion.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11I keep thinking "art dealer".
0:22:11 > 0:22:15I'll go with art dealer, please, Jeremy.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Art dealer is your answer...
0:22:18 > 0:22:23Jay Jopling is indeed an art dealer. Well done.
0:22:26 > 0:22:33Eggheads, which play by Shakespeare features a pompous schoolmaster called Holofernes
0:22:33 > 0:22:35and a clown called Costard?
0:22:41 > 0:22:43That's Love's Labour's Lost.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46It's Love's Labour's Lost.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51That is the correct answer. Two points each.
0:22:51 > 0:22:56Terry, here's your next question. The London Assembly building called City Hall is in which borough?
0:23:02 > 0:23:04I'm getting all the good ones(!)
0:23:06 > 0:23:10I'm drawn to Southwark, but Tower Hamlets keeps...
0:23:12 > 0:23:15Camden...
0:23:15 > 0:23:17No...
0:23:17 > 0:23:21I'll go with sort of my first inkling.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25I've no idea why, but I'll go with Southwark.
0:23:25 > 0:23:29You're playing really well, Terry. Southwark is correct.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31Three out of three.
0:23:31 > 0:23:37Many is the team that have had to do no more than this to win the money.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Eggheads, if you get this wrong,
0:23:39 > 0:23:46well, you will have lost and the Equestrian Drivers will go away with the money. If you get this wrong.
0:23:47 > 0:23:54In which field was Sydney Camm one of the 20th century's leading designers?
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Aircraft, yeah.
0:24:00 > 0:24:05He was an aircraft designer. He's the man who designed the Hurricane.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09Aircraft is your answer. And it is the correct answer.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13Both of you have played perfect rounds. We go to sudden death.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Not multiple choice. I need the answer from you.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20Terry, at which Northumberland town
0:24:20 > 0:24:24does the River Tweed enter the North Sea?
0:24:26 > 0:24:29I believe it's Berwick. Berwick-on-Tweed?
0:24:31 > 0:24:37It's correct. It is Berwick. Of course, Berwick-upon-Tweed, you're absolutely right.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40OK, Eggheads, we're here again.
0:24:40 > 0:24:45He's piling the pressure on you. If you get this answer wrong, they're going to get the money.
0:24:45 > 0:24:51Toots and her brother Sidney, Fatty, Smiffy, Wilfrid and Plug
0:24:51 > 0:24:56are characters from which comic strip first seen in 1954?
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- That was the Bash Street Kids.- Yeah.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02Those are the Bash Street Kids.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06- You're sure about that?- Yes. - Are they right, Terry?- Yeah.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09It is the Bash Street Kids.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Sudden death, the final round,
0:25:11 > 0:25:17Para Equestrian Drivers playing for all that money - £5,000. And it's tight. Here's your question.
0:25:17 > 0:25:22Which expression meaning "excessively enthusiastic"
0:25:22 > 0:25:25comes from the Mandarin meaning "work together"?
0:25:25 > 0:25:30- Excessively...?- Which expression meaning "excessively enthusiastic"
0:25:30 > 0:25:34comes from the Mandarin meaning "work together"?
0:25:35 > 0:25:37Oh...
0:25:37 > 0:25:41The first thing was OTT, over the top.
0:25:41 > 0:25:47But it's not really something a Mandarin would say - "That's a bit over the top."
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Excessive...
0:25:55 > 0:25:57Cock-a-hoop.
0:26:00 > 0:26:04You'll really be so annoyed when you hear this.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Actually, let me go to the Eggheads.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09- Gung-ho.- Gung-ho.
0:26:09 > 0:26:10Oh!
0:26:10 > 0:26:12All right.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16So you've let them in, but they haven't won yet.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20Your question, Eggheads. If you get this right, you've won the contest.
0:26:20 > 0:26:25Which colourful spice is thought to derive its name from the Latin
0:26:25 > 0:26:28meaning "deserving earth"?
0:26:30 > 0:26:35Which colourful spice is thought to derive its name
0:26:35 > 0:26:38from the Latin meaning "deserving earth"?
0:26:38 > 0:26:41Turmeric. "Tur" is like "terra".
0:26:41 > 0:26:44Oh, it could be, yes.
0:26:44 > 0:26:48- It's bright yellow, isn't it? - Turmeric possibly. "Terra", "tur"...
0:26:48 > 0:26:51A colourful spice?
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Turmeric is very colourful, certainly.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58- Turmeric is bright. - It makes sense.- "Meric" is "merit".
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Anything else? It sounds fine.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Yeah.- Any other possibilities? - Not really.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09- Yeah?- Go for it.- OK.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13- We'll go for...- It fits everything. - Yes. We'll go for turmeric.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19The answer...is turmeric.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21- "Terra merita."- Yeah.
0:27:21 > 0:27:25Well done, Eggheads. You've won again.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32You could have won there.
0:27:32 > 0:27:37To get four in a row right, you can often see them slip up, so bad luck.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41- I feel privileged to do it.- Thanks.
0:27:41 > 0:27:46Daphne's one of the... I always think of her as the nicest person I've never met.
0:27:46 > 0:27:52You have met her now, so I'm sure she has fulfilled that description.
0:27:52 > 0:27:57- It's been great to have you all. I hope it was fun meeting Daphne and...- All of them.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01Commiserations. The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04They still reign supreme over quizland.
0:28:04 > 0:28:08You won't be going home with the £5,000, so the money rolls over.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:12 > 0:28:17Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:17 > 0:28:21£6,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye.
