0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:08 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:11 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:17 > 0:00:19Question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:27 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33You might recognise them, as they are Goliaths in the world

0:00:33 > 0:00:36of TV quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39And taking on the might of our

0:00:39 > 0:00:42quiz goliaths today are The Other Side Of The Mountain.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44The team all work at an IT company in Leeds.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46And if they aren't taking part

0:00:46 > 0:00:49in their regular Quiz Fridays, then they'll be running

0:00:49 > 0:00:52their very own version of The Apprentice

0:00:52 > 0:00:55with team captain David as Sir Alan.

0:00:55 > 0:00:56Let's meet them.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm David. I'm 45 and I'm a company director.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02Hi, my name's Emma. I'm 36, I'm a sales director.

0:01:02 > 0:01:04Hello, I'm Jonathan.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06I'm 38 and a company director.

0:01:06 > 0:01:11Hi, I'm Bruce. I'm 37 and I'm a sales account manager.

0:01:11 > 0:01:12Hi, I'm Rob.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14I'm 28, I'm a sales account manager.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16Welcome, Other Side Of The Mountain.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19And, David, tell me about this, this Apprentice thing, then.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22How do you do that? You don't really fire people, do you?

0:01:22 > 0:01:25We thought about it but we've never actually fired anybody, no.

0:01:25 > 0:01:26We pretend to fire them.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29- We fire them from the competition. It runs for a month.- OK.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31And what do you get people to do?

0:01:31 > 0:01:33All kinds of tasks, which we kind of...

0:01:33 > 0:01:36Some of them are related to our business. And some of them are

0:01:36 > 0:01:38just copies of the stuff from the TV show.

0:01:38 > 0:01:40So just for fun and some will benefit the business?

0:01:40 > 0:01:45- Yes, bit of both.- OK. And tell me about Quiz Fridays, as well?

0:01:45 > 0:01:47We're in kind of a hard sales environment.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49So we try to have as much fun as we can.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51So we play lots of kind of TV...

0:01:51 > 0:01:53versions of TV quiz shows.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55We've done Millionaire and that kind of thing.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58- You've done Eggheads, of course. - We haven't yet, we should.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Well, now you're doing it for real.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03Every day there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers. However,

0:02:03 > 0:02:07if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10Other Side Of The Mountain, the Eggheads have won the last 14 games,

0:02:10 > 0:02:16which means £15,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20And our first head-to-head today is going to be on Arts and Books.

0:02:20 > 0:02:21Who'd like to play this one?

0:02:21 > 0:02:24It can be any one of you at this opening stage.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Definitely got to go with Bruce.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29- Yeah, definitely.- It's not my strongest but I said I'd go for it

0:02:29 > 0:02:31- if it came up. - It's down to you, Bruce.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33Was that the plan, Bruce, if Arts and Books came up?

0:02:33 > 0:02:36You know the categories, then. Who would you like to play?

0:02:36 > 0:02:38You have the advantage of being able to choose anyone.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Who do you think will be the weakest?

0:02:40 > 0:02:42Or maybe you you want to play the strongest.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45- They're all going to be pretty good, - I'm not that good, Dermot, no.

0:02:45 > 0:02:49- I... Can I take CJ? Is that all right?- Absolutely.

0:02:49 > 0:02:50Absolutely, yeah.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52- OK.- Gone for the strongest, then?

0:02:52 > 0:02:54- Absolutely.- Really?

0:02:54 > 0:02:57Oh, no. Big mistake.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59No, my nose is growing longer as I say that.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02Let's have Bruce and CJ into the question room then, please.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04To make sure there's no conferring.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09OK, Bruce. Let's get on with it, shall we? Arts and Books.

0:03:09 > 0:03:10Do you want to go first or second?

0:03:10 > 0:03:13I'll go first, I think.

0:03:15 > 0:03:19This is your question then, Bruce. Rudolf Rassendyll

0:03:19 > 0:03:21impersonates a European king

0:03:21 > 0:03:24in the plot of which classic adventure story?

0:03:29 > 0:03:31OK, OK.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35I'm not...sure.

0:03:35 > 0:03:40But I know it's not The Three Musketeers.

0:03:40 > 0:03:44Because I have seen that, you know, in film and things.

0:03:45 > 0:03:51And The 39 Steps is more of a spy thriller, if I'm right.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54So I'm going to go for Prisoner Of Zenda, Dermot.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57OK, Prisoner Of Zenda. Elimination strategy there

0:03:57 > 0:04:00giving you the right answer. Good start, Bruce.

0:04:00 > 0:04:01Prisoner Of Zenda. Rudolf Rassendyll.

0:04:01 > 0:04:07OK, CJ, first question. Which famous book is largely set in

0:04:07 > 0:04:11and around the Yorkshire town of Whitby? Oh, Bruce would have liked this.

0:04:11 > 0:04:12Good Yorkshire man.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18That's Dracula, Dermot.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20It is Dracula. It's the right answer.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Set in and around...

0:04:22 > 0:04:25Well, part of it's set in and around Whitby. So one each.

0:04:25 > 0:04:31Bruce, which British artist is known for his spot paintings,

0:04:31 > 0:04:35which consist of grids of coloured circles on a plain background?

0:04:41 > 0:04:44You see, this is the Art section.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47I'm not going to be, I'm not going to be 100% sure here, either.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50I know it's not Damien Hirst, though.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Grayson Perry I've not heard of.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55Which means

0:04:55 > 0:04:58I've got to go for Antony Gormley.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Antony Gormley. Didn't think it was Damien Hirst.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Hadn't heard of Grayson Perry.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04And there we are...

0:05:04 > 0:05:08with the wrong answer. Not Gormley. Do you know, CJ, of the other two?

0:05:08 > 0:05:10- It is Damien Hirst. - It is Damien Hirst.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13So always barking up the wrong tree there, Bruce.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16Spot paintings as well as pickled sharks and other things.

0:05:16 > 0:05:20- Oh, really? Right. - So a chance for the lead for CJ.

0:05:20 > 0:05:25CJ, who wrote the novels Jewels, Secrets and Rogue? They're three.

0:05:25 > 0:05:29Who wrote the novels Jewels, Secrets and Rogue?

0:05:35 > 0:05:38I think that's Danielle Steel.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Jewels, Secrets and Rogue written by Danielle Steel

0:05:41 > 0:05:44is the correct answer. Gives you the lead.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48OK, well, it means you've got to get this, Bruce.

0:05:48 > 0:05:52What was the title of the first novel by the Chinese American author

0:05:52 > 0:05:54Amy Tan?

0:05:59 > 0:06:00OK.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05Wild Swans is really jumping out at me but I...

0:06:05 > 0:06:09I can't give you an explanation why. But I've seen it on a bookshelf.

0:06:09 > 0:06:13I suppose that's an explanation why and I'm going to go for Wild Swans.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Wild Swans.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18OK, first novel by Amy Tan to keep you in it - keep your hopes alive.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20If not, CJ's through.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24It's not the Wild Swans. It's The Joy Luck Club.

0:06:24 > 0:06:29Yeah, Amy Tan's first novel is The Joy Luck Club.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32So no luck for you there, Bruce. Which means there as you can see

0:06:32 > 0:06:35from the scoreboard, CJ doesn't need to face another question.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37He's in the final round.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39You won't be playing for the 15,000 today, Bruce.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:06:42 > 0:06:45As it stands now, Other Side Of The Mountain have lost

0:06:45 > 0:06:48one brain from the final round. The Eggheads haven't lost any.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50We'll play our second head to head of the day.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52This one is going to be Politics.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Who'd like to play this one?

0:06:54 > 0:06:57It can't be you, Bruce. But any of the other four team members there.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00- OK, I think I'll do it, Dermot. - You're going to do it, David.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03And which Egghead would you like to play apart from CJ?

0:07:03 > 0:07:05Any of the other four.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07I think...

0:07:07 > 0:07:09I think Barry, please.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13Barry. And this is where you really want to adopt the Sir Alan persona

0:07:13 > 0:07:15and say "Barry, you're fired from the final round."

0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Let's see if you can do it. - It has been said before.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21Let's have David and Barry into the question room, please.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25David, would you like to go first or second in this Politics round?

0:07:25 > 0:07:27I think I'll go first please, Dermot.

0:07:30 > 0:07:31OK, first it is. Good luck, David.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35What is the name of the post held by the person responsible

0:07:35 > 0:07:38for overseeing each constituency's results at a general election?

0:07:43 > 0:07:48I'm fairly sure that that's the returning officer.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51The returning officer. It certainly is.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54Reads out the results with the Monster Raving Looney Party

0:07:54 > 0:07:57in the background making faces over their shoulder.

0:07:57 > 0:08:02OK, first blood to you, then. Barry, what name is given to the draft

0:08:02 > 0:08:07of an act of Parliament as it passes through the legislative process?

0:08:10 > 0:08:12Given some of the recent acts that

0:08:12 > 0:08:15have passed I think it should be called an invoice. But it's a bill.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18- Controversial, Barry.- But accurate.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Ha! It is the right answer.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22Bill is correct.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25OK, back to you, David.

0:08:25 > 0:08:29In 2008, Ed Davey and Nick Harvey

0:08:29 > 0:08:32were appointed to the front benches of which UK political party?

0:08:36 > 0:08:39I've never heard of them.

0:08:39 > 0:08:43So on that basis I'd think they're more likely to be Liberal Democrats.

0:08:48 > 0:08:49Yeah, I'm going to say,

0:08:49 > 0:08:52because I've never heard of them, I'm going to say Liberal Democrat.

0:08:52 > 0:08:56They are of the Liberal Democrats. It's the right answer.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58So two to you. Barry, second question.

0:08:58 > 0:09:03In the 2000 US Presidential elections, who stood

0:09:03 > 0:09:06on behalf of the Green Party and gained nearly three million votes?

0:09:10 > 0:09:14Well, Pat Buchanan is an extremely right-wing politician.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17Can't recall Warren Beatty standing but I do know that Ralph Nader tries

0:09:17 > 0:09:20to stand almost in every election.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22And he is a Green. So I'll say Ralph Nader.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Ralph Nader. Three million votes in 2000.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26It's the right answer. Well done.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28Two-all in a very exciting Politics round.

0:09:28 > 0:09:32David's third question, which could win the round for him.

0:09:32 > 0:09:37Which term refers to a type of parliamentary constituency

0:09:37 > 0:09:39prior to the 1832 Reform Act?

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Kettlebasher, potwalloper.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52I don't really know why it's calling out to me but

0:09:52 > 0:09:55I think I'm going to say potwalloper.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57Potwalloper calling out to you.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Maybe some residual memory from the school days. It's the right answer.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Potwalloper gives you the lead.

0:10:02 > 0:10:07And if Barry doesn't get his third one correct he'll be out.

0:10:07 > 0:10:12Barry, in September 2008 Quentin Bryce became the first

0:10:12 > 0:10:15female governor general of which country?

0:10:19 > 0:10:21Interesting female name that, Quentin.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24But I believe she was a governor general in Australia.

0:10:24 > 0:10:29Australia, yeah. I was thinking that, Quentin. It is Australia.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31It's the right answer. OK, well, it's all square.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34Very, very exciting second round here. David, it means

0:10:34 > 0:10:38we go to Sudden Death. So, we're going to remove those choices now.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Just got to hear an answer from you and this is your question.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44During the 1997 General Election,

0:10:44 > 0:10:47which candidate was known as the man in a white suit?

0:10:47 > 0:10:50It was the BBC guy...

0:10:55 > 0:10:57I, I can picture him, Dermot, but...

0:10:57 > 0:11:01- I can't remember his name. I don't know.- Can't give me a guess, David?

0:11:01 > 0:11:03This is the curse of Sudden Death, isn't it?

0:11:03 > 0:11:08Without options here you're not able to conjure them up.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10No, it's gone. Sorry. Wasn't there in the first place.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13- Are you passing? - I'm passing. I don't know the answer.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Take a pass on that. Check with Barry.

0:11:15 > 0:11:19I believe he fought the Tatton seat. It was Martin Bell?

0:11:19 > 0:11:21Yup, Martin Bell took on... Eggheads?

0:11:21 > 0:11:24- Neil Hamilton.- Neil Hamilton.

0:11:24 > 0:11:27OK, well, nothing there for David.

0:11:27 > 0:11:30But Barry still has to get this if he is to win the round.

0:11:30 > 0:11:34Bashar al-Assad became the president

0:11:34 > 0:11:36of which Middle Eastern country in 2000?

0:11:36 > 0:11:42He's the son of Hafez al-Assad and both were presidents of Syria.

0:11:44 > 0:11:45Syria is the right answer.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49Barry, you are through. Only just.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52Bad luck, David. You won't be playing in the final round.

0:11:52 > 0:11:56Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:11:56 > 0:11:58So Other Side Of The Mountain have lost two brains.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01The Eggheads haven't lost any yet.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03Our next subject today is Sport.

0:12:03 > 0:12:07And who'd like to play this? Emma, Jonathan or Rob. Sport.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09It has to be Rob's, doesn't it?

0:12:09 > 0:12:12- Yeah, I think it's you. - Taking that one, yeah?

0:12:12 > 0:12:14- OK.- OK, Rob. Who would you like to play from the Eggheads?

0:12:14 > 0:12:16It can't be Barry or CJ.

0:12:16 > 0:12:20I'd like... I'd like to take on the delightful Judith Keppel, please.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23- The delightful Judith Keppel. - I'm not.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Not when she plays Sport.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27Now you've made her angry. All Hulk-like.

0:12:27 > 0:12:30- Let's have Rob and Judith into the question room, please.- Beast!

0:12:32 > 0:12:34Rob, it's Sport.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Would you like to go first or second?

0:12:36 > 0:12:38I'll follow the pattern. I'll go first.

0:12:40 > 0:12:45OK, good luck. Which substance do players usually apply to the tip

0:12:45 > 0:12:48of a snooker cue during matches to help it grip the cue ball?

0:12:50 > 0:12:54Well, I've played a fair few games of snooker myself.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56I know that one's chalk.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59Resin would be good, wouldn't it? Just stick them all on the end.

0:12:59 > 0:13:03Couldn't go wrong. It's the right answer. Chalk, good start.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05Judith,

0:13:05 > 0:13:07the tennis player Andy Roddick

0:13:07 > 0:13:09represents which country in the Davis Cup?

0:13:13 > 0:13:14The tennis player Andy Roddick

0:13:14 > 0:13:17represents which country in the Davis Cup?

0:13:17 > 0:13:18I think he's American.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20I'm fairly sure he's American.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22So what then... He represents South Africa?

0:13:22 > 0:13:24No.

0:13:24 > 0:13:28- USA.- USA. Are you sure?

0:13:28 > 0:13:30- Well, as sure as I can be. - It is the right answer, yes.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33Andy Roddick, USA, American.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36OK, Rob, second question.

0:13:36 > 0:13:41In May 2008 which former Scottish Rugby Union player was appointed

0:13:41 > 0:13:46head coach for the 2009 British and Irish Lions tour to South Africa?

0:13:49 > 0:13:51I'm pretty sure I know this one.

0:13:51 > 0:13:56And I'm pretty certain he lives not far from me,

0:13:56 > 0:14:00assuming it's the right answer. I'm going to go with Ian McGeechan.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02Ian McGeechan is the right answer.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Ian McGeechan, yes.

0:14:04 > 0:14:08Head coach for the 2009 British and Irish Lions tour to South Africa.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10So two to you. Judith, second question.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14Phil Brown, born in 1959,

0:14:14 > 0:14:19was appointed manager of which football club in January 2007?

0:14:21 > 0:14:24Well, that means he's 49 now, doesn't it?

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Not that that's really relevant.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29But it's a good delaying tactic.

0:14:29 > 0:14:33I have an instinct it might be Hull City.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35So that's my answer.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37- That's your answer?- Yes, yes. - Phil Brown.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39The mighty Hull is the right answer.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Well, done, Judith.

0:14:41 > 0:14:45Rob, at the 1980 Winter Olympics, Eric Heiden

0:14:45 > 0:14:48won five gold medals in which sport?

0:14:53 > 0:14:59If I'm honest, winter sports isn't one of my strongest, strongest areas.

0:14:59 > 0:15:05For the reason only that it's one of the more popular sports

0:15:05 > 0:15:10in the Winter Olympics, I'm going to say alpine skiing.

0:15:10 > 0:15:14OK. Bit of a blank area, winter sports for you.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17Eric Heiden won five golds as a...

0:15:17 > 0:15:20speed skater.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23OK, well, Eric Heiden was a speed skater.

0:15:23 > 0:15:27- So a chance for Judith to win the round.- Wow.

0:15:27 > 0:15:31Judith, in 1945 which golfer won a record 18 tournaments

0:15:31 > 0:15:37including 11 in a row on the United States PGA Tour?

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Oh, dear.

0:15:42 > 0:15:46I have vaguely heard of Sam Snead and Ben Hogan.

0:15:46 > 0:15:49But not the other one.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51I think it might be Ben Hogan.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55OK, Ben Hogan to clinch the round.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58It's bounced off the cup.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00It's not the right answer.

0:16:00 > 0:16:02- It is, Eggheads?- Byron Nelson.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05- Byron Nelson.- Oh, no. Never heard of him.- Byron Nelson.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08Well, some comfort to you. Another being that you don't go out

0:16:08 > 0:16:12because Rob also slipped up on his third question. So we go to Sudden Death.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15And, Rob, as you saw with David there, we remove the choices.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18Gets an awful lot harder. This is your question.

0:16:18 > 0:16:23The stadium that opened in 1997 to be the primary venue for the US Open

0:16:23 > 0:16:26is named after which tennis player?

0:16:26 > 0:16:28I'm assuming you're meaning tennis

0:16:28 > 0:16:32by the US Open. And with that in mind, I think,

0:16:32 > 0:16:35it's Arthur Ashe.

0:16:35 > 0:16:36Arthur Ashe is correct.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39The Arthur Ashe Stadium.

0:16:39 > 0:16:44- Won the US Open in 1968. Also won Wimbledon, didn't he?- Yes.- '75.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47Arthur Ashe, legendary tennis player.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49So put you in the lead, Rob.

0:16:49 > 0:16:54Judith, which swimmer regained his 50 metres freestyle British record

0:16:54 > 0:16:58in 2008 at the age of 38?

0:16:58 > 0:17:01I don't know. I suppose that's in the Olympics.

0:17:03 > 0:17:07I, I've, I have absolutely no idea.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09Are you going to hazard a guess or pass?

0:17:09 > 0:17:10I'll know it when you say it.

0:17:10 > 0:17:14- But I simply can't drag it up at the moment.- So it's a pass?

0:17:14 > 0:17:17- It is a pass.- Strictly Come Dancing?

0:17:17 > 0:17:19Oh, that Fos...!

0:17:19 > 0:17:21- What was he called? Tall one.- Yup.

0:17:21 > 0:17:25- I can't remember his name even now! - You just said it, second name.

0:17:25 > 0:17:29- Foster?- Yeah, Mark Foster.- Mark Foster.- Which means flying the flag

0:17:29 > 0:17:32for Other Side Of The Mountain is our Rob there.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35You're going through to the final round, playing for £15,000.

0:17:35 > 0:17:39Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:17:39 > 0:17:42You've lost those two brains from the final round,

0:17:42 > 0:17:44the Eggheads have now lost their first one.

0:17:44 > 0:17:49Our last head-to-head before the final round, chance to even it up, is going to be Film and Television.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52Who'd like to play this, Emma or Jonathan?

0:17:52 > 0:17:56- I think you've got to take it, Emma. - Me?- Don't you think so?

0:17:56 > 0:17:59- Emma's got to do it. - Fine. OK. Fine, I'll do it.

0:17:59 > 0:18:03OK, Emma. And who would you like to play from the Eggheads?

0:18:03 > 0:18:05Chris or Kevin remaining.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08We'll go for Kevin. Kevin, please.

0:18:08 > 0:18:13Go for Kevin. OK, let's have Emma and Kevin into the question room, please, to play Film and Television.

0:18:13 > 0:18:18Emma, do you want to go first, or do you want to let Kevin begin?

0:18:18 > 0:18:20First, to get out of the way.

0:18:22 > 0:18:26Here you are. Who was the director of the Godfather trilogy?

0:18:30 > 0:18:33I should know this one, but...

0:18:34 > 0:18:38The name that's jumping out at me is Martin Scorsese.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40I'm just going to go for that one straightaway.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43Don't think it's Spielberg and I've never heard of...

0:18:43 > 0:18:44Bruce will kill me.

0:18:44 > 0:18:48But I'm going to go for Martin, Martin Scorsese.

0:18:48 > 0:18:53Martin Scorsese, director of the Godfather trilogy.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56It's not Martin Scorsese and Bruce wasn't looking best pleased,

0:18:56 > 0:18:59it must be said, as you were giving the answer.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02He does do a lot of gangster films, does Scorsese, of course.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04But Francis Ford Coppola is the...

0:19:04 > 0:19:07Yeah. It's a bit of a boy's question really, though, isn't it?

0:19:07 > 0:19:10- Definitely. - I watched The Godfather Part II

0:19:10 > 0:19:13just the other evening, as one does. Martin Scorsese incorrect.

0:19:13 > 0:19:16It is Francis Ford Copp-ola. Or Cop-pola.

0:19:16 > 0:19:20So first question to Kevin and a chance instantly for the lead.

0:19:20 > 0:19:25Teddy and Looby Loo featured in a TV series with which character?

0:19:28 > 0:19:31Well, they may have visited the others from time to time.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34But most famously associated with Andy Pandy.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37It is Andy Pandy. It's the right answer.

0:19:37 > 0:19:41So a lead for Kevin. Right, let's get you off the mark, Emma.

0:19:41 > 0:19:46Who played Lois Lane in the 2006 film Superman Returns?

0:19:50 > 0:19:51Er...

0:19:51 > 0:19:54- Kate Bosworth.- Kate Bosworth.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57- That's a complete guess. Sorry, Bruce.- Complete guess.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59OK, Kate Bosworth. Another film question.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03You the film buff, then, Bruce? If it had come up before Arts and Books

0:20:03 > 0:20:05- would you have played it? - I think so.

0:20:05 > 0:20:10You weren't to know if it's coming up at all. Is it the right answer?

0:20:10 > 0:20:12- I'm pretty sure. Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, it is!

0:20:12 > 0:20:15- Kate Bosworth, Lois Lane in Superman Returns.- I knew it, really.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18Course you did. Now you regret saying it was a total guess.

0:20:18 > 0:20:22OK, it doesn't matter how you get them.

0:20:22 > 0:20:26Kevin, who plays the role of the police officer Jim Gordon

0:20:26 > 0:20:28in Batman Begins and The Dark Knight?

0:20:31 > 0:20:33Michael Caine is Alfred the butler.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37But Jim Gordon who will one day become Commissioner Gordon

0:20:37 > 0:20:38is Gary Oldman.

0:20:38 > 0:20:42The role of Jim Gordon in Batman Begins and The Dark Knight

0:20:42 > 0:20:44is taken by Gary Oldman. It's correct.

0:20:44 > 0:20:48So two to you. Means you must get this one right, Emma.

0:20:48 > 0:20:52Which former Hollyoaks actor plays the character Gaz

0:20:52 > 0:20:55in the TV comedy Two Pints Of Lager And A Packet Of Crisps?

0:20:59 > 0:21:01That's Will Mellor.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03Will Mellor. Absolutely right.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06On very confident ground there.

0:21:06 > 0:21:10But because of that early slip-up, the first question,

0:21:10 > 0:21:12there's an opportunity for Kevin to take the round.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Kevin, what was David Lean's

0:21:15 > 0:21:19first film for which he was credited as sole director?

0:21:23 > 0:21:26Ah, that's an interesting one.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29It's not Oliver Twist because that's the latest of the three.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31That was, that was '48.

0:21:31 > 0:21:37Blithe Spirit was '45 and Lean directed that.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43I'm going to say Blithe Spirit. It may be that he was credited

0:21:43 > 0:21:46as sole director on This Happy Breed, which I think was a year earlier.

0:21:46 > 0:21:50- But I'm going to go with Blithe Spirit, I think.- OK, Blithe Spirit.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52It's This Happy Breed.

0:21:52 > 0:21:55David Lean's sole director credit on This Happy Breed.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59Happy Emma there. Live to fight on

0:21:59 > 0:22:02in Sudden Death now. So very rarely you see that.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Kevin very assured normally with his films.

0:22:04 > 0:22:07Let's put your Sudden Death question to you, then, Emma.

0:22:07 > 0:22:12Which TV series first aired in 1997

0:22:12 > 0:22:16was created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone?

0:22:18 > 0:22:23I think I know this but I cannot think what it is.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26Nothing is coming back to me at all.

0:22:26 > 0:22:29I'm sorry. I don't know.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32- Pass.- Want to guess? Last minute guess?- I can't even think of

0:22:32 > 0:22:36- anything to guess. It's all gone blank.- Gone blank.- So sorry.

0:22:36 > 0:22:40- Do you know, Kevin, if you'd been put in first?- South Park.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43- South Park. It is South Park. Do you know it now, Emma?- Yup.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46- Does it ring a bell?- It does. - CJ would have...

0:22:46 > 0:22:49second only to The Simpsons for him, I guess. South Park.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52Another chance for Kevin then to win the round.

0:22:52 > 0:22:57Kevin, what is the name of the top prize at the Cannes Film Festival?

0:22:57 > 0:23:00It's the Palme D'Or. Golden Palm.

0:23:00 > 0:23:04It is. And you get the Palme d'Or in this round.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07It means you've won the round, you're through to the final.

0:23:07 > 0:23:09No place for you, Emma, I'm sorry.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:23:12 > 0:23:14So this is what we've been playing towards.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17Time for the final round - General Knowledge.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19But those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:23:19 > 0:23:21won't be allowed to take part.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25So David, Emma and Bruce from The Other Side Of The Mountain,

0:23:25 > 0:23:29and Judith from the Eggheads, would you please leave the studio now?

0:23:29 > 0:23:34So Jonathan and Rob, you're playing to win The Other Side Of The Mountain £15,000.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37Chris, Barry, Kevin, CJ, you're playing for something

0:23:37 > 0:23:39money can't buy... Oh, no -

0:23:39 > 0:23:41the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46The questions are all General Knowledge.

0:23:46 > 0:23:50You are allowed to confer. Other Side Of The Mountain, are your two brains

0:23:50 > 0:23:53better than the Eggheads' four? And Jonathan and Rob,

0:23:53 > 0:23:55would you like to go first or second?

0:23:55 > 0:23:57BOTH: We'll go first, please.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00Let's see how you do.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02First question, General Knowledge.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05What name is given to the large round knob

0:24:05 > 0:24:07at the end of a sword handle?

0:24:11 > 0:24:14What name is given to the large round knob at the end

0:24:14 > 0:24:16of a sword handle?

0:24:16 > 0:24:19A hilt's always used as a word to denote the end of something.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22- Yeah. But pommel, as well, I've heard of.- I've heard the word.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25Is that not something to do with a pommel horse,

0:24:25 > 0:24:27like a vaulting horse? Have I made that up?

0:24:27 > 0:24:29You might have just made that up.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31- I think it's hilt.- I think...

0:24:31 > 0:24:33- The hilt of the sword.- Have a go.

0:24:33 > 0:24:37We're going with that, yeah? We're going to go with hilt.

0:24:37 > 0:24:41The large round knob at the end of a sword handle is a pommel.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43It's a pommel. So up to the hilt.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45- Is the hilt the cross bit? - The cross bit, yeah.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48Then you've got the handle, then you've got the pommel.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51With the Cavalry Sabre, you hold it in your hand,

0:24:51 > 0:24:52smash down with the pommel.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54- Use it as a cosh.- Yeah.- Well...

0:24:54 > 0:24:57Not what they hoped for from Other Side Of The Mountain.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Let's see how the Eggheads do. Eggheads.

0:24:59 > 0:25:05Pentland, Javelin and Belle de Fontenay are varieties of which food stuff?

0:25:07 > 0:25:09Pentland, Javelin, Belle de Fontenay

0:25:09 > 0:25:12are varieties of which food stuff?

0:25:12 > 0:25:17- Yeah, they're potatoes, Dermot. - It's the right answer, Eggheads.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20Other Side Of The Mountain, important you get this.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23Seals and sea lions

0:25:23 > 0:25:26are contained within which biological grouping of animals?

0:25:31 > 0:25:34Seals and sea lions are contained within which

0:25:34 > 0:25:37biological grouping of animals?

0:25:37 > 0:25:41Lagomorphs, like, the word "morph" means to change, doesn't it?

0:25:41 > 0:25:44I don't know why, I just think it's pinnipeds.

0:25:44 > 0:25:46"Ped" is something to do with legs, though.

0:25:46 > 0:25:50- Unless pinnipeds means no legs.- Mmm. - What does...?

0:25:50 > 0:25:53What does the "pinni" bit mean? Obviously...

0:25:53 > 0:25:55- You can discuss it...- I don't know.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58- Do we think it's pinnipeds? - Let's go for pinnipeds,

0:25:58 > 0:26:00purely cos we think it means no legs.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02- Dermot, we'll go for pinnipeds. - OK, pinnipeds -

0:26:02 > 0:26:06you think it means no legs. You don't know what it means, do you?

0:26:06 > 0:26:09- We're guessing.- Didn't fancy it, Rob, did you?- Not at first...

0:26:09 > 0:26:13Jumped out at you. It's the right answer. Pinnipeds, correct.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16Kept you in it, Other Side Of The Mountain.

0:26:16 > 0:26:20Very important question there. OK, Eggheads, second question to you.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23The Britannia Bridge, designed by Robert Stephenson,

0:26:23 > 0:26:27and opened in 1850, spans which body of water?

0:26:31 > 0:26:34The Britannia Bridge, designed by Robert Stephenson,

0:26:34 > 0:26:38and opened in 1850, spans which body of water?

0:26:38 > 0:26:41It's the Menai Strait, between Bangor and Llanfair PG.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43It is the Menai Strait.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46It's correct, Eggheads.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48No better man than Chris to answer it.

0:26:48 > 0:26:52OK, means you've got to get this, Other Side Of The Mountain.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54In the plot of which opera is

0:26:54 > 0:26:58the leading female character murdered by Jack The Ripper?

0:27:02 > 0:27:04In the plot of which opera is

0:27:04 > 0:27:07the leading female character murdered by Jack The Ripper?

0:27:07 > 0:27:11No idea. Absolutely none. I've only heard of one of them.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13Opera is not my strong point.

0:27:13 > 0:27:17I've heard of Faust. That's the only one I've heard of.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20I know Faust was something evil and demonic.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23I don't get that impression from what I've heard about it.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27It's the only one I've heard of.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30- It jumped out at me again. - It's probably wrong.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33- I don't know. Shall we go for it? - Yeah. You call it.- Erm...

0:27:33 > 0:27:36For no reason other than it's the only one we've heard of,

0:27:36 > 0:27:39- we're going to go for Faust. - OK, Faust.

0:27:39 > 0:27:43The plot of the opera leading... in which the leading female character

0:27:43 > 0:27:45is murdered by Jack The Ripper.

0:27:45 > 0:27:48The opera in question is Lulu. Lulu.

0:27:48 > 0:27:52Which means, Eggheads, you've won.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Well, bad luck,

0:27:57 > 0:27:59Other Side Of The Mountain.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02I think the tale of today's game has been those Sudden Death rounds

0:28:02 > 0:28:04played by David and Emma.

0:28:04 > 0:28:10Looked like they had every chance of getting through - they just went blank at crucial moments.

0:28:10 > 0:28:16Meant you were under strength there in the final round, and those questions just didn't suit you.

0:28:16 > 0:28:20The Eggheads have done what comes naturally - that winning streak continues.

0:28:20 > 0:28:24I'm afraid, you won't be going home with the £15,000.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27And so the money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?

0:28:30 > 0:28:35Join us next time to see if the challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38£16,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
