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 | 0:00:15 | |
The question is, can they be beaten? | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
Welcome to Eggheads, where a team of five quiz challengers | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
Their pedigree is well known as they've won some of the toughest quiz shows. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:34 | |
They are the Eggheads. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
Challenging our quiz Goliaths today are Puddings Not Tarts. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |
The team hail from the town of Bakewell in Derbyshire, | 0:00:41 | 0:00:45 | |
home to popular pastry treat the Bakewell pudding. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
I think they should explain themselves! | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
Hi. I'm Carolyn. I'm 62. I'm a retired craft centre owner. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:56 | |
Hello. I'm Martin. I'm 39 and I'm a holiday cottage owner. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
Hello. I'm Richard. I'm 60 and I'm a geologist. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
Hello. I'm Davia. I'm 62 and I'm a retired teacher and childminder. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:08 | |
Hi. I'm Mike. I'm 48 and I'm a managing director. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
-Welcome, Puddings Not Tarts. Welcome, Carolyn. -Hello. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
-We thought it's Bakewell tart, but it's not? -It's originally Bakewell pudding. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
It was only with a certain commercial producer who called them Bakewell tarts. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:25 | |
They're the ones with icing and a cherry on top. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
How do you know each other? Some are related. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
I've known Martin all his life, cos he's my son! | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
Richard I've known for about 25 years when we started playing badminton together. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:41 | |
We've quizzed together and against each other. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
Davia, we were at college together, a long, long time ago. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:48 | |
Davia. What a great name. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:49 | |
And Mike I've known through Bakewell Mannerians Rugby Club. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:53 | |
We're connected with it in a big way. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
A tightly-knit team here. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
Puddings Not Tarts. That's the key thing. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
Every day there's £1,000-worth of cash up for grabs. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the money rolls over to the next show. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
Puddings Not Tarts, the Eggheads have won the last 18 games. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
Which means £19,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:16 | |
First head-to-head is on the subject of science. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
Challengers, who wants science? | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
-It's got to be Mike. -It's got to be Mike. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
Who shall we play? | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
Entirely up to you. You're the expert. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:29 | |
What about Judith? | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
-OK? -Judith. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
Judith. Sorry, Judith. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
-She doesn't mind. -Barry's much better. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
So it's Mike from Puddings Not Tarts versus Judith from the Eggheads. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:44 | |
To ensure no conferring, please take your positions. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
Three multiple choice questions on Science, in turn. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
Whoever answers the most questions correctly goes to the final. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:55 | |
Mike, first or second set? | 0:02:55 | 0:02:56 | |
Got to be first, I think. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
What is the chemical symbol of chlorine, Mike? | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
C is carbon. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
Cl. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:14 | |
Cl. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
Your answer is Cl. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
It's right. That's chlorine. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
Judith, | 0:03:22 | 0:03:23 | |
in the human body, the collar bone is also known by what name? | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
Well, femur is a bone in the leg. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:34 | |
Scapula. I think scapula is shoulder blade. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:38 | |
I think your collar bone is your clavicle. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:40 | |
Clavicle is the right answer. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
Back to you, Mike. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:47 | |
For what does the letter N stand in the scientific abbreviation, DNA? | 0:03:47 | 0:03:53 | |
It won't be numberic. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
Nucleic. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
Nucleic. Isn't it nucleic acid? | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
Nucleic. DNA - anyone know what it stands for? | 0:04:11 | 0:04:14 | |
Deoxyribonucleic acid. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:16 | |
Deoxy... You almost sang that! | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
-It's very lyrical. # -Deoxyribonucleic acid. -# | 0:04:18 | 0:04:23 | |
-Too much effort even to say it. -Can't be bothered. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
Mike, you're right. Nucleic. Well done. Judith, | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
what colour, around its eyes and beak, | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
is the face of the adult British garden bird, the goldfinch? | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
Well, I'm just trying to visualise. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
I've got lots of them in France. Lots of them all over the place. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:48 | |
They have these flashes of red | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
on their wings. I think they've probably got red round their eyes. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:55 | |
Not mixing colours. So red. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:57 | |
Red is the right answer. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
Mike, your third question. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
Approximately how many million miles long is an astronomical unit, | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
the unit of length equal to the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun | 0:05:07 | 0:05:11 | |
which provides a convenient way to express and relate distances of objects | 0:05:11 | 0:05:15 | |
in the solar system? | 0:05:15 | 0:05:17 | |
93. It's 93 million miles. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
You sound very certain about that. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
Reasonably. It's part of a Monty Python song, I think. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
-Is it? -The Meaning of Life. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:35 | |
The Meaning of Life. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
93 is right. 93 million miles long. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
The astronomical unit. Judith, | 0:05:40 | 0:05:42 | |
this to stay in. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:44 | |
What is the technical name for heartburn? | 0:05:44 | 0:05:47 | |
I just know it as indigestion. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:55 | |
I don't know. Oh, dearie me. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:01 | |
Here I go. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:03 | |
I think I'm going to say Pyrosis. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
Pyrosis is correct. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
-Thank goodness. -Three points each. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:12 | |
After three questions, scores level. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
Not multiple choice any more. It's sudden death. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
OK? You have to give me the answer. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
Down House in Kent | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
which features the Sand-walk, or thinking path, | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
was the family home for 40 years of which scientific figure? | 0:06:25 | 0:06:28 | |
Charles Darwin. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:33 | |
Correct. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
And 2009, the 200th anniversary. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
-250th. -200th. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:41 | |
Of Origin of Species. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:43 | |
-Of his birth and then 150 of Origin of Species. -Yes. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:47 | |
So, Judith, you get this wrong, you're out. Not in the final. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:51 | |
Which colourless fluid, | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
derived from blood, bathes all the tissues in the body, | 0:06:53 | 0:06:57 | |
cleansing them of bacteria? | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
I thought the colourless fluid in blood was plasma, | 0:07:00 | 0:07:04 | |
which everything goes in to. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:06 | |
But... | 0:07:07 | 0:07:09 | |
..lympha. Lymph. Lymphoma. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
Plasma. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:17 | |
Plasma is your answer. Shame. You said the right answer and moved on. | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
-It was lymph. -Yep. But I'll tell you why. I said lymph | 0:07:21 | 0:07:25 | |
then I couldn't think of a liquid. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
-I thought the lymph... Oh, anyway. -Lymph is it. -I couldn't think of the name. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:31 | |
Lymph is what we wanted. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:33 | |
Judith, you've been beaten in that round. Well done, Mike. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
-Thank you. -Emerged triumphant. You're in the final, helping your team. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:41 | |
Good news for the challengers. Sorry, Judith. Do come back to us now. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:47 | |
As it stands, the challengers haven't lost any brains from the final round. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:53 | |
Eggheads have lost one. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
Next subject is Film & TV. Which of you would like this? | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
It's got to be you, Davia. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
-Davia. -Who do you want to play? | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
-Thinking about Barry. -Who do you want to play? -Yeah. Barry, then. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:07 | |
So Davia from Puddings Not Tarts versus Barry from the Eggheads. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:12 | |
Please take your positions in the question room. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
I'll ask each of you three questions on Film & TV. Davia, | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
you can choose the first or second set. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:21 | |
I'll go first, please. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:23 | |
Here we go. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:26 | |
Good luck. In 2009 | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
which TV personality took on the role of Archie Daley | 0:08:29 | 0:08:32 | |
in a new version of the TV series Minder? | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
It was Shane Richie. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
Absolutely it was. Well done. Shane Richie. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
Barry, | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
your question now. Who played Uncle Albert in the TV sitcom Only Fools And Horses? | 0:08:50 | 0:08:54 | |
Roger Lloyd-Pack was Trigger | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
and John Challis was Boycie. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:03 | |
Albert was Buster Merryfield. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
He was indeed Buster Merryfield. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
Davia, | 0:09:10 | 0:09:11 | |
who directed the 1963 film This Sporting Life? | 0:09:11 | 0:09:15 | |
Um... | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
I think it was Lindsay Anderson. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:28 | |
I'll say Lindsay Anderson. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
Lindsay Anderson is right. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
Well done. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:37 | |
Very sure-footed. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
Barry, | 0:09:43 | 0:09:44 | |
four actresses received Academy Award nominations | 0:09:44 | 0:09:48 | |
for their performances in which 1950 film? | 0:09:48 | 0:09:51 | |
All About Eve had a fistful of nominations, | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
so I shall go for that one. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:01 | |
I was watching it just the other day. Yeah, | 0:10:03 | 0:10:06 | |
it's right, All About Eve. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
Davia, | 0:10:10 | 0:10:11 | |
get this and you could shake Barry | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
to his very core. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
Giovanni Ribisi, who appeared in the films Gone In 60 Seconds | 0:10:15 | 0:10:20 | |
and Flight Of The Phoenix, | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
played the brother of which character in the TV comedy series Friends? | 0:10:22 | 0:10:27 | |
If I get this wrong, my daughter will never forgive me! | 0:10:30 | 0:10:34 | |
I'm not very sure. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
I'm going to go for Chandler. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:41 | |
Carolyn looks like she knows. Who was it? | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
-Phoebe. -Phoebe. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:46 | |
Barry, your question for the round. | 0:10:48 | 0:10:50 | |
Which character is played by Donald Sutherland | 0:10:50 | 0:10:53 | |
in the 1967 film The Dirty Dozen? | 0:10:53 | 0:10:56 | |
Donald Sutherland. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:05 | |
I think that was Vernon Pinkley. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
Vernon Pinkley. Right answer. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:12 | |
Barry, Well done. You're in the final. Davia, you were beaten | 0:11:12 | 0:11:15 | |
so won't be able to help your team in the final round. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
Please both come back and rejoin your team mates. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
The challengers have lost one brain from the final round | 0:11:23 | 0:11:26 | |
as have the Eggheads. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
Next subject is Food & Drink. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:31 | |
Who would like this? | 0:11:31 | 0:11:33 | |
Er, no. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:37 | |
-Richard? -Would you have a go? -I'll do it, but I don't know anything about it. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:41 | |
Martin will have a go. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:43 | |
-Martin against? -Who do we want to play? | 0:11:43 | 0:11:45 | |
No Kevin to knock out here. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:47 | |
They go for Kevin on this. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:50 | |
WHISPERING | 0:11:50 | 0:11:52 | |
-I don't mind. -Which one do you think? -Go on, then. | 0:11:52 | 0:11:55 | |
-Say it. -We'll have CJ. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:56 | |
So Martin from the challengers against CJ from the Eggheads. | 0:11:56 | 0:12:00 | |
To ensure no conferring, please go to the question room. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:04 | |
I'll ask each of you three questions on Food & Drink. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
-Martin, first or second set of questions? -I'll go first. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:12 | |
In a Western Chinese restaurant, | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
what is the name of a dish of fried noodles | 0:12:17 | 0:12:19 | |
with shredded meat and vegetables? | 0:12:19 | 0:12:21 | |
I'm not very up on this, | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
but I think that chow mein has noodles so I'll go for that. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
Chow mein is right. Well done. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:36 | |
Can be confusing, that menu. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | |
CJ, | 0:12:38 | 0:12:40 | |
what is the name of the metal urn | 0:12:40 | 0:12:43 | |
with a tap at its base, | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
used in Russia to boil water for tea? | 0:12:45 | 0:12:49 | |
Call me wild and extravagant, but I'll go for the one of those that's Russian, not French! | 0:12:53 | 0:12:58 | |
I think it might be a samovar. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
Samovar is right. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:04 | |
Back to you, Martin. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:06 | |
What is the name of a champagne bottle | 0:13:06 | 0:13:08 | |
which holds the equivalent of eight bottles? | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
Well, I haven't heard of a salmanazar in connection with this. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:21 | |
I've a feeling a methuselah is bigger than that. I'm not sure. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:29 | |
I'll go for a rehoboam. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:32 | |
It's not rehoboam. It's methuselah. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:35 | |
Eight standard bottles in one of those. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:38 | |
Sorry about that, Martin. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:41 | |
CJ, over to you. What type of creature | 0:13:41 | 0:13:44 | |
is the abalone, the meat of which is considered a delicacy? | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
One of the things I do for research | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
is watch cooking shows. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
But this doesn't help me with that. | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
Another thing I do for research is watch antiques shows. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
You come across a lot of glasses cases made out of abalone shell. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:07 | |
So I think it's a mollusc. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
On the antiques show is the abalone shell. What was it from? | 0:14:09 | 0:14:13 | |
The mollusc is right, CJ. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:16 | |
Well done. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:18 | |
You pull ahead. You need this one right, Martin, your third question. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:23 | |
You got one wrong earlier. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
The arepa is a cornmeal cake, usually fried or baked, | 0:14:25 | 0:14:30 | |
originating from which continent? | 0:14:30 | 0:14:32 | |
It's not something I've heard of. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
I'll go for South America. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
Well done. That's right. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:44 | |
Well done. South America's right. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:47 | |
OK, CJ. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:49 | |
Which chef opened a new restaurant in the Trianon Palace Hotel | 0:14:49 | 0:14:54 | |
in Versailles in 2008? | 0:14:54 | 0:14:57 | |
I'm sure I've heard this. Um... | 0:15:02 | 0:15:05 | |
I could be completely mistaken, | 0:15:05 | 0:15:08 | |
but one of those names did occur to me before I saw the options. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:13 | |
I'm not absolutely sure, but I'll go with Gordon Ramsay. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:17 | |
CJ, well done. Gordon Ramsay is the right answer. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:21 | |
So you win the round. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:23 | |
Martin, you were beaten by our Egghead. You can't be in the final. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |
CJ will be. Please come back to us now. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:29 | |
Where are we now? The challengers have lost two brains | 0:15:30 | 0:15:34 | |
from the final round. Eggheads have lost just one brain. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
We move to sport as our last subject. Who wants this? | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
It looks like being me! | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
Richard against who? | 0:15:42 | 0:15:45 | |
Go for Chris, do you think? | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
Well, | 0:15:47 | 0:15:48 | |
I think, I think, it's gotta be Chris. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
Richard from Puddings Not Tarts versus Chris. You can't wait! | 0:15:51 | 0:15:56 | |
I saw a programme on BBC2 last night | 0:15:56 | 0:15:59 | |
about a group of blameless allotment holders in east London | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
being bulldozed off their allotments to make way for the hell-spawned Olympics! | 0:16:02 | 0:16:07 | |
My heart was filled with fury on their behalf! | 0:16:07 | 0:16:11 | |
That sets the tone! | 0:16:11 | 0:16:12 | |
Please go to the question room now. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:15 | |
Chris, what is it about sport? What's the problem? | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
Congenital antipathy, hatred, loathing, detestation, | 0:16:19 | 0:16:22 | |
you name it! | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
-Don't beat about the bush! -I never do! | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |
Three questions on sport, in turn. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:29 | |
Richard, first or second set? | 0:16:29 | 0:16:31 | |
Why break the habit? I'll go first as well, please. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:35 | |
Good luck. The cricketer Justin Langer | 0:16:37 | 0:16:40 | |
played 105 test matches for which country? | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
Justin Langer, he's Australian. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
He is Australian. Well done. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:53 | |
Chris, | 0:16:54 | 0:16:55 | |
who became the club captain of Manchester United football club | 0:16:55 | 0:16:59 | |
in 2005? | 0:16:59 | 0:17:01 | |
Red rag to a bull in certain quarters in Crewe. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
He's only mentioned at Man United. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:13 | |
I think it's Gary Neville. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:17 | |
Gary Neville is the right answer. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:20 | |
Richard, | 0:17:20 | 0:17:22 | |
in which year was the American boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard born? | 0:17:22 | 0:17:26 | |
Sugar Ray Leonard. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:34 | |
I think I'll go for... | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
..1956. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
Yes, you're right. Well done. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:44 | |
Brilliant fighter. '56. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:46 | |
Chris, your question. | 0:17:46 | 0:17:48 | |
What is the name of Lewis Hamilton's father | 0:17:48 | 0:17:50 | |
who encouraged and supported his son in his motor racing pursuits? | 0:17:50 | 0:17:55 | |
Anthony Hamilton is somebody else. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:03 | |
I think his name's Derek. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
You sprang with all your energy towards the wrong answer. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:12 | |
Derek is wrong. Anthony. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:15 | |
This is good for you, Richard. Get this right, you're in the final. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:20 | |
Which horse won its third successive Ascot Gold Cup in 2008, | 0:18:20 | 0:18:24 | |
a feat only achieved once before | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
in the 201-year history of the race? | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
Oh. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:36 | |
Horse racing. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:38 | |
I've no real interest in horse racing. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:44 | |
I think I'll have a go at Joyce. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
Mike? You know? | 0:18:49 | 0:18:50 | |
-I'd have gone for the same. I don't know. -No, it's Yeats. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:54 | |
Yeats. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:56 | |
Chris, if you get this right, we go to sudden death. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
If you get it right. If not, you're not in the final. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:03 | |
Which British cyclist won a gold medal | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
in the women's sprint competition at the 2008 Olympic Games? | 0:19:05 | 0:19:09 | |
It struck me as a good robust sort of British name, | 0:19:15 | 0:19:19 | |
so I think it was Victoria Pendleton. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
-Is he right, CJ? -No, Romero. -Rebecca. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
CJ, you're wrong. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
-Oh. -Victoria Pendleton. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:29 | |
Oh. We all thought it was Romero. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:32 | |
Victoria Pendleton is right. Well done, Chris. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:35 | |
You stayed in the game. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:37 | |
Two points each after multiple choice. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
We go to sudden death. It's that bit harder, Richard. You have to give me the answer. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:46 | |
Here's your question. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:47 | |
Which Welsh football club won the 1927 FA Cup final? | 0:19:47 | 0:19:51 | |
This is the only time it's ever gone out of England. | 0:19:51 | 0:19:56 | |
Cardiff City. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:57 | |
Very good. | 0:19:57 | 0:19:59 | |
-Are you a football fan? -Yes, I enjoy football. -Cardiff City is the right answer. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:04 | |
Chris, this to stay in it. Sudden death. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:09 | |
Which country has hosted the winter Olympics on the most occasions? | 0:20:09 | 0:20:13 | |
The first were in France, at Chamonix, in '24. | 0:20:13 | 0:20:17 | |
It's been there a few times since. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
It's not Canada, it's not the USA. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
It's not Japan. It's France. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
The country concerned has Lake Placid, Squaw Valley, | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
-Salt Lake City... -Oh, that lot! -Yeah! | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
The Americans. USA. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
USA. So... | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
Sudden death and you died! | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
Well done, Richard. You took on an Egghead and triumphed. You're in the final round. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:47 | |
Chris, you won't. Please both come back and join your teams. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:51 | |
This is what we've been playing towards, the final round, general knowledge. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:57 | |
Those of you who lost your head-to-heads | 0:20:57 | 0:20:59 | |
won't be allowed to take part in this round. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
So Martin and Davia from Puddings Not Tarts, | 0:21:02 | 0:21:05 | |
and Chris and Judith from the Eggheads, please leave us now. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:09 | |
Carolyn, Richard and Mike, you're playing to win the Puddings Not Tarts £19,000. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:15 | |
CJ, Daphne and Barry, you're playing for something money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:21 | |
I'll ask each team three questions in turn, | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
all general knowledge. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:25 | |
You are allowed to confer. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:28 | |
So, Puddings Not Tarts, the question is, | 0:21:28 | 0:21:30 | |
are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three? | 0:21:30 | 0:21:34 | |
Don't have to say no to that! Carolyn, Richard and Mike, | 0:21:34 | 0:21:37 | |
will you go first or second? | 0:21:37 | 0:21:39 | |
-First? -We've gone first till now. -We'll go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:42 | |
Here we go. In which year did Bill Clinton officially become President of the United States? | 0:21:45 | 0:21:51 | |
CONFER QUIETLY | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
-Bush has done two. -He's done eight years. -Yeah. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
-That's 16 years. -..2008. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:08 | |
Bush was 2004 and 2000. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:10 | |
So he was... | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
It'd be '95. No. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
-No, '93. -16 years ago. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
Yes, it's got to be. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:19 | |
We've had two eight-term presidents. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:21 | |
Two two-term presidents. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | |
We're not sure but if our maths is right | 0:22:24 | 0:22:26 | |
we're hoping it's 1993. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:29 | |
That's the right answer. 1993. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:33 | |
Eggheads, | 0:22:34 | 0:22:35 | |
if something is in good order, | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
it is said to be what, | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
That would be Bristol fashion. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
Bristol fashion is correct. Well done. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:52 | |
Next question for Puddings Not Tarts. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
Lucinda Childs, born in New York City in 1940, | 0:22:54 | 0:22:59 | |
is a renowned name in which field? | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
Lucinda Childs? | 0:23:05 | 0:23:06 | |
Julia Childs was a cookery thing, but not Lucinda. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:11 | |
You wouldn't expect much horticulture out of New York City. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
Dance is New York. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
-Dance is New York, isn't it? -It might be dance. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
-I've no idea. We've no idea, but we'll say dance. -Dance is New York. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:22 | |
It's got to be. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:24 | |
Let me ask the Eggheads. | 0:23:24 | 0:23:26 | |
ALL: Cookery. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:27 | |
They're wrong. You're right. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:29 | |
Dance is the answer. Just cos they say it with conviction! | 0:23:29 | 0:23:33 | |
We learn something every day. But it may not be true! | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
-I swear I've seen her books! -Should have gone second! | 0:23:38 | 0:23:41 | |
They would have got the wrong answer. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:44 | |
Eggheads, | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
in the original Penguin paperback books, launched in 1935, | 0:23:46 | 0:23:50 | |
what colour was used to denote general fiction? | 0:23:50 | 0:23:53 | |
Oh, those fiction books. They're the orange ones, aren't they? | 0:23:56 | 0:24:00 | |
-BARRY: -They were fiction. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:02 | |
-They're the ones that are sought-after now. -Collectors' items. | 0:24:02 | 0:24:06 | |
They're orange. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:09 | |
It's gone red, and it's orange. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:12 | |
Well done. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:14 | |
Level pegging. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
You know how important this question is, third in the final round. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:20 | |
Here we go. Which former National Hunt champion jockey | 0:24:20 | 0:24:24 | |
has written best-selling novels | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
with titles including Inside Track, Winner Takes All and Safe Bet? | 0:24:26 | 0:24:30 | |
-I think it's John Francome. -I won't argue with you! | 0:24:34 | 0:24:37 | |
I think the only one who's written novels is John Francome. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:42 | |
If you get this right, | 0:24:42 | 0:24:44 | |
then they get theirs wrong, you've won. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:47 | |
Don't tempt us! | 0:24:47 | 0:24:49 | |
John Francome is the correct answer. Well done. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:53 | |
Done with great certainty as well. | 0:24:53 | 0:24:57 | |
-Eggheads, over to you. India's Vishwanathan Anand... -I'll take this one! | 0:24:57 | 0:25:03 | |
retained his world title in what game in 2008? | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
I think I'll take this one! | 0:25:06 | 0:25:08 | |
I think that might be chess, Jeremy. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:13 | |
You are a former chess champion. | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
-I am, indeed! -Was it MENSA chess champion? | 0:25:15 | 0:25:19 | |
I was, but I've won lots of other titles as well. Smaller titles. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:24 | |
-You haven't beaten this guy? -Never even met him. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:28 | |
Chess is the correct answer. | 0:25:28 | 0:25:30 | |
-It would have been so simple! -It would have been nice. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
It's rarely that simple with them. Three questions each. £19,000. | 0:25:34 | 0:25:40 | |
Scores are level. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:41 | |
Now we go to sudden death. | 0:25:41 | 0:25:43 | |
-Is your life flashing before you? -Yes. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:47 | |
The ancient temple complex at Abu Simbel is in which country? | 0:25:47 | 0:25:52 | |
-I think it's Egypt. Definitely. Are we sure? -Yep. -Yep. -Are we sure? | 0:25:52 | 0:25:56 | |
-Are we sure? -Definitely. -Yep. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
We think that's Egypt. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
You're right. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:03 | |
You're right. | 0:26:03 | 0:26:05 | |
A lot of conviction. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:07 | |
If you get this wrong, Eggheads, they get £19,000. | 0:26:09 | 0:26:12 | |
If you get this wrong. Here's your question. Sudden death. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:15 | |
In cinematography, | 0:26:15 | 0:26:17 | |
for what does the letter V stand | 0:26:17 | 0:26:19 | |
in the abbreviation POV? | 0:26:19 | 0:26:21 | |
I thought it was point of view. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:23 | |
I'm thinking if there's anything else. Point of view came to my mind. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:27 | |
That's what I've always known POV to stand for, point of view. | 0:26:27 | 0:26:30 | |
The V stands for view. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
V does stand for view. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:36 | |
How could they be so beastly? | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
I know! | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
Sudden death. £19,000. Your question. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:45 | |
Which German-born photographer was known for his studies of London during the Blitz | 0:26:45 | 0:26:50 | |
and his 1936 book The English At Home? | 0:26:50 | 0:26:53 | |
All I can think of is Man Ray, but he wasn't German. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:56 | |
QUIET CONFERRING | 0:26:56 | 0:26:59 | |
I don't know. I don't know. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:03 | |
If it was multiple choice, it would spring out at you. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:07 | |
But it's, um... | 0:27:07 | 0:27:09 | |
-I don't know. -Heinrich Braun? I don't know. | 0:27:09 | 0:27:12 | |
-I've no idea. -Shall we say we don't know? -Go with what he said. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:17 | |
Well, we don't know, as you can tell. What was it you thought? | 0:27:17 | 0:27:21 | |
-Braun. Heinrich Braun. -Heinrich Braun. | 0:27:21 | 0:27:24 | |
-We don't know. -Heinrich Braun. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:26 | |
-There was a B. -A name plucked out of the ether. -There was a B. Daphne? | 0:27:26 | 0:27:30 | |
-Bill Brandt. -Bill Brandt. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:32 | |
-Two Bs. -It was B. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:34 | |
Not Willy Brandt, the politician. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:36 | |
-No. This is it. -Bill or Billy. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
-Never mind. -Eggheads, | 0:27:38 | 0:27:40 | |
in Norse mythology, what was the name of the rainbow bridge | 0:27:40 | 0:27:45 | |
between heaven and earth? | 0:27:45 | 0:27:47 | |
-Bifrost. -Bifrost. -Thank you. | 0:27:47 | 0:27:49 | |
Bifrost. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:52 | |
You said that with certainty. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:55 | |
-Yes. -Bifrost. -We love mythology! | 0:27:55 | 0:27:58 | |
You love Norse mythology. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:00 | |
-Only you. -All mythology. -All mythology. | 0:28:00 | 0:28:02 | |
Quizzers love mythology. | 0:28:02 | 0:28:05 | |
Bifrost is correct. Well done, Eggheads, you've won again. | 0:28:05 | 0:28:09 | |
Commiserations, challengers. The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them. | 0:28:13 | 0:28:19 | |
I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £19,000. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:22 | |
The money rolls over to the next show. Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you? | 0:28:22 | 0:28:28 | |
Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. | 0:28:28 | 0:28:33 | |
£20,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye. | 0:28:33 | 0:28:36 | |
