0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:16 > 0:00:20Question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:36You might recognise them, as they've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.
0:00:36 > 0:00:40And challenging our resident quiz champions today
0:00:40 > 0:00:42are Aurora Borealis from Hull.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46Team captain, Adam, has cast his net far and wide to recruit a team,
0:00:46 > 0:00:52consisting of his fiancee, his dad, work colleague and family friend to take on the Eggheads.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55- Let's meet them.- Hi. I'm Adam.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58I'm 26 and I'm a theology student.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02Hi. I'm Sharon. I'm 28 and I'm a pharmacy student.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05I'm Mike. 50 years old and I'm a driver.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09Hi. I'm Elaine. I'm 50 years old and I'm an outreach project worker.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13Hi. I'm Maggie. I'm 48 and I'm a catering assistant.
0:01:13 > 0:01:19So, Adam, you've scoured Hull and its surrounding area to put together this crack team
0:01:19 > 0:01:25- to try and beat the Eggheads.- Yeah. - Tell me about the team name, Aurora Borealis. That's Northern Lights.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Of course, you're from the North and you shine very bright.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Yeah. That's where it comes from.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33It's from a programme that Joanna Lumley did about the Northern Lights and it was really cool
0:01:33 > 0:01:38and it was just on at the time we were trying to think of our name so it just seemed to fit us quite well
0:01:38 > 0:01:41cos we all either come from the North or met there.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Maybe if you win the money, some of it will go towards a trip to see them the Northern Lights for real.
0:01:45 > 0:01:50Follow in the footsteps of Joanna Lumley. Right. Let's play the game.
0:01:50 > 0:01:54Every day, there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:54 > 0:01:59However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:59 > 0:02:04So Aurora Borealis, the challengers actually won the last game, proving it can be done.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07That means £1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10The first head-to-head battle will be on the subject, then, of Sport.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14- Who's your sporting expert, Aurora Borealis?- Could be me?
0:02:14 > 0:02:18Yeah. My dad's going to... Mike's going to go in for this one.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22OK. And any Egghead you like at this stage, the opening round.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- CJ?- Yeah.- CJ, I think.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28CJ...on sport. Let's have Mike and CJ in to the question room, please,
0:02:28 > 0:02:33just to make sure you can't confer with your teammates.
0:02:35 > 0:02:40- Mike, do you want to go first or second?- I think I'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:02:43 > 0:02:44Good luck, Mike. Here you go.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46First question is rugby union.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50Which rugby union player who has suffered injuries to his shoulder,
0:02:50 > 0:02:53kidney, ankle, groin, arm and adductor muscle
0:02:53 > 0:02:58since winning the World Cup, dislocated his knee in 2008? What a list.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05I'm thinking
0:03:05 > 0:03:11Jonny Wilkinson's the most obvious.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Lawrence Dallaglio, I think he's retired now.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16So I'll go for Jonny Wilkinson.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19The hero of the 2003 World Cup victory,
0:03:19 > 0:03:23but what an injury list since. It is Jonny Wilkinson.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25It's the right answer. Well done, Mike.
0:03:27 > 0:03:32OK. CJ, who is the only boxer to have knocked out George Foreman
0:03:32 > 0:03:33in a professional fight?
0:03:39 > 0:03:40I don't know.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44It's Joe Frazier.
0:03:44 > 0:03:48OK. Well, at least you didn't spend a lot of time over getting it wrong.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50It's Muhammad Ali.
0:03:50 > 0:03:55Muhammad Ali, which is great news. Mike, it's one-nil to you.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59Will go two-nil if you give me a correct answer to this one.
0:03:59 > 0:04:04David Ferrer, James Blake and Tommy Robredo are famous names in which sport?
0:04:09 > 0:04:12I don't think I've heard of them for tennis.
0:04:12 > 0:04:18And I'm not sure about athletics, but I think I'd go for golf.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22OK. They're golfers, Blake, Ferrer and Robredo.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23CJ, are they?
0:04:23 > 0:04:27- They're tennis players. - They're tennis players, Mike.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31I'd say one CJ would have fancied, but you're not getting that, CJ.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33You're getting this.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36And it's football.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40Which French footballer scored the only two goals of his 14-year international career
0:04:40 > 0:04:45during his side's 1998 World Cup semi-final victory over Croatia?
0:04:48 > 0:04:51What are you asking me for?
0:04:51 > 0:04:56I don't know. Laurent Blanc.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Laurent Blanc. And it was... Eggheads?
0:04:59 > 0:05:01- It was Thuram, wasn't it? - Lilian Thuram.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Never heard of...him, presumably?
0:05:04 > 0:05:05Yes.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09OK. You win the round if you get this, Mike.
0:05:09 > 0:05:17In which sport did 22-year-old Londoner James DeGale win a gold medal at the 2008 Olympic Games?
0:05:19 > 0:05:22James DeGale.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25I believe that was boxing.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28- Is that your answer?- Yes.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Boxing.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33You're in the final round. It's the right answer. Well done, Mike.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37Two to you. Zero, zilch, nada for CJ.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Flying start there for Aurora Borealis.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Mike straight through to the final round.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50The Eggheads have, of course, just lost CJ.
0:05:50 > 0:05:54So we play our next subject now. This is Film & Television.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58- Is this what you were looking forward to?- You want to play this?
0:05:58 > 0:06:01- Yes. Yeah.- OK. We're going to have Maggie have a go at this one.
0:06:01 > 0:06:06- Maggie, who would you like from the Eggheads? It can't be CJ.- Chris. - It's Maggie against Chris.
0:06:06 > 0:06:13OK. Could I ask Maggie and Chris, then, to take their positions in the question room?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Maggie, do you want to go first or second?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17I'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Maggie, you've decided to kick off. Here's your first question.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Film & Television.
0:06:24 > 0:06:29What type of creature is Clint Eastwood's companion, Clyde,
0:06:29 > 0:06:32in the 1978 film Every Which Way But Loose?
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Think it'd look a bit funny being a donkey.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39And I can't see it being a dog.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42So I'm going to go for orang-utan.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46It is orang-utan. It is the right answer.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50OK. Your first question, then, Chris.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Which actor played the role of Sonny Crockett
0:06:53 > 0:06:56in the 1980s TV show Miami Vice?
0:06:59 > 0:07:02That was Don Johnson.
0:07:02 > 0:07:07It is indeed. It's the right answer. OK, Maggie. Second question.
0:07:07 > 0:07:13Which actor played the part of Ragetti in the Pirates Of The Caribbean series of films?
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Which actor played the part of Ragetti
0:07:19 > 0:07:22in the Pirates Of The Caribbean series of films?
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Can't see it being Ricky Gervais.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Can't remember Martin Freeman, from what I've seen of him being in it.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- So I'm going to go for Mackenzie Crook.- Mackenzie Crook.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37The one of them in Pirates Of The Caribbean is Mackenzie Crook.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39It's the right answer.
0:07:39 > 0:07:45Chris, which English monarch is portrayed by Robert Shaw
0:07:45 > 0:07:48in the 1966 film A Man For All Seasons?
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Well, that's got Paul Scofield as Sir Thomas More,
0:07:54 > 0:07:58who was involved in a crisis of conscience over Henry VIII.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00So it's Henry VIII.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03It's the right answer. Henry VIII is correct.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Two each. OK, Maggie.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Third question. What was the title of Woody Allen's musical
0:08:08 > 0:08:14released in the UK in 1997 that starred Drew Barrymore and Edward Norton?
0:08:21 > 0:08:27It's one I've never ever seen, so I'm just going to say
0:08:27 > 0:08:31- Everyone Says I Love You. - Everyone Says I Love You.
0:08:31 > 0:08:36- Yeah.- Guess?- Totally.- Total guess. Not even an informed guess.
0:08:36 > 0:08:41Well, it's a good guess, whatever it is, however we define it.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44It's the right answer. Everyone Says I Love You.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46And Aurora Borealis love you.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Chris must get this correct to save it.
0:08:49 > 0:08:54In 2008, a lawsuit was brought against Steven Spielberg and Dreamworks,
0:08:54 > 0:09:00claiming that the plot of the movie Disturbia, starring Shia LaBeouf, was stolen
0:09:00 > 0:09:02from which Alfred Hitchcock classic?
0:09:06 > 0:09:11I don't know the film Disturbia, but let's deconstruct the question a bit.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15I don't think it's Psycho because that is such a standalone thing.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18You couldn't really nick the plot
0:09:18 > 0:09:21without it being obvious to everybody that you'd nicked it.
0:09:21 > 0:09:26Vertigo is Jimmy Stewart with a fear of heights, as a detective.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30But if we're talking about disturbing things
0:09:30 > 0:09:32that you're not really supposed to see,
0:09:32 > 0:09:36this was another Jimmy Stewart film where he was a disabled detective
0:09:36 > 0:09:39looking out of his rear window and apparently witnessing a murder.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42So I'll say it was lifted from Rear Window,
0:09:42 > 0:09:44but that's just me being Sherlock Holmes.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46OK. And come up with the right answer.
0:09:46 > 0:09:51And that's why he's an Egghead. Very experienced Eggheadery there.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55OK. Well, you know what this means, Maggie. We go to sudden death.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58We take away the choices now.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00So I've just got to hear an answer from you.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04Who played the role of Doug Ross in the US TV series, ER?
0:10:04 > 0:10:08I'm going to have to pass, Dermot, cos I can't even think.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12- I've never watched ER.- Are you sure, Maggie?- No. I can't think.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15Nothing there. OK, Maggie. When it's gone, it's gone, hasn't it?
0:10:15 > 0:10:19It's George Clooney, Maggie. George Clooney.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22So a chance for you to win the round, Chris.
0:10:22 > 0:10:30Which TV sitcom character is often impersonated with the phrase "Ooh, Betty, the cat's done a whoopsy"?
0:10:30 > 0:10:33I read that with feeling, didn't I?
0:10:33 > 0:10:37Yeah. That is Michael Crawford's creation, Frank Spencer.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39It is Frank Spencer. It's the right answer.
0:10:39 > 0:10:45- Can you do it better than me, Chris? - Ooh, Betty... No. Not at the moment.
0:10:45 > 0:10:50I thought that was really rather good. Very, very good, actually. I might get you to do that again.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54It is the right answer, I'm afraid for you, Maggie.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57I'm sure you would have got that. It just didn't fall to you.
0:10:57 > 0:11:01You won't be playing in the final round. Would you both come and join your teams?
0:11:01 > 0:11:07As it stands then, it's all square for both teams. They've both lost one brain from the final round.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11We move on to our third round of the day and this one is Science.
0:11:11 > 0:11:17- Who'd like to play this? - Go on, Sharon.- Think it is me. Yeah.
0:11:17 > 0:11:22- It's got to be you, Sharon. Is this your... You're a pharmacy student?- Pharmacy student. Yes.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26Who would you like to play from the Eggheads? CJ and Chris have played.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30- So you've got Barry, Daphne or Kevin.- I think I'll go for Daphne.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32OK.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36- Yeah.- Let's have Sharon and Daphne into the question room, please.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42Sharon, I don't want to put pressure on you, but tell me about the science degree.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Yeah. I've got a degree in chemistry.
0:11:44 > 0:11:49- And at the moment, I've just started a degree in pharmacy.- Wow.- Yeah.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53OK. Sharon, would you like to go first or second?
0:11:53 > 0:11:55I think I'll go first, please.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Sharon, your first question.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04How many humps does an Arabian camel have?
0:12:06 > 0:12:09How many humps does an Arabian camel have?
0:12:12 > 0:12:14Think I'm going to go for one.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17It's just a bit of a guess, really.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20I'm not sure what the answer is, but I'll go for one.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22One. OK.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24Got the right answer. Well done.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27OK, Daphne.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31Your first question. The triceratops dinosaur,
0:12:31 > 0:12:36characterised by a great bony neck frill and three horns, had what type of diet?
0:12:40 > 0:12:45Don't know. I really don't know.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49I shall guess at herbivorous.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53Herbivorous is the right answer. Well, done, Daphne.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57- I just thought of CJ.- Yes. What, you mean in terms of that description -
0:12:57 > 0:13:01- three horns, double-headed, bony neck frill?- Yeah.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05Yeah. OK, Sharon. Second question. Good start for you both.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09What type of current does a battery provide?
0:13:14 > 0:13:18I think a car normally has an alternator,
0:13:18 > 0:13:22so I'm going to guess with alternating,
0:13:22 > 0:13:25- cos it has a battery. - Cos it has an alternator.
0:13:25 > 0:13:31Definitely a battery. OK. A battery provides a...
0:13:31 > 0:13:35Not an alternating, it's a direct current.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Direct current from a battery.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41So, Daphne, chance for the lead.
0:13:41 > 0:13:46What name is given to the process by which heat is transmitted in the form of rays or waves?
0:13:52 > 0:13:55See, I never did any of this at school.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01- Is it radiation? - OK. You're going for radiation.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Why? Because rays and radiation, they radiate.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08It's the right answer. Well done. OK. Right.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10You've got to get this then, Sharon.
0:14:10 > 0:14:16Th is the chemical symbol for which radioactive silvery white element
0:14:16 > 0:14:18that can be used as a nuclear fuel?
0:14:22 > 0:14:26I'm going to go for thallium...
0:14:26 > 0:14:29cos I think that's the answer.
0:14:29 > 0:14:34OK. Well, no other reason. Th, chemical symbol for...
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Sharon, you've moved on to pharmacy, you see. It's thorium.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39- Oh, no.- It's thorium.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42- Forgot the chemistry.- I have.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Oh, dear. Well, that's where it ends, I'm afraid.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48It means, Daphne, you will be playing in the final round.
0:14:48 > 0:14:54Luckier with your guessing there than Sharon. Bad luck, Sharon. So your mind's on other things now.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:14:58 > 0:15:03As it stands, the challengers have lost two brains now from the final round, the Eggheads have lost one.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07So we move on to our last head to head before the final round.
0:15:07 > 0:15:12Trying to make it all square, Aurora Borealis, and knock an Egghead out with this one, Music.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16Who'd like to play that, and that's you, Adam or Elaine?
0:15:16 > 0:15:19- I think it should be Adam. - I think it's going to be you, Adam.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22I'll do this one. I'll try this one, anyway.
0:15:22 > 0:15:27OK, Adam. And who would you like to play from the Eggheads? We've had CJ, Chris and Daphne,
0:15:27 > 0:15:28so that leaves Barry and Kevin.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32I'll be really brave and try and do Kevin.
0:15:32 > 0:15:33- You ARE brave.- Yeah.
0:15:33 > 0:15:38But I can tell you the last time he played a round, he lost, so maybe a good sign there.
0:15:38 > 0:15:44Let's have Adam and Kevin into the question room, please.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47Adam, would you like to go first or second?
0:15:47 > 0:15:51I think I'm going to go second, just to change it a little bit.
0:15:53 > 0:15:58OK. Kevin, here you go. Which group had a UK number-one hit single
0:15:58 > 0:16:00in 1979 with I Don't Like Mondays?
0:16:04 > 0:16:09It was not then Sir Bob, but later to become with The Boomtown Rats.
0:16:09 > 0:16:14Yeah. There we are. Boomtown Rats. I Don't Like Mondays. Correct.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16OK. First question for you then, Adam.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20In which country was the tenor Jose Carreras born?
0:16:23 > 0:16:25I'm not 100% certain,
0:16:25 > 0:16:32but going by the name Jose, I think I'm going to opt for Spain
0:16:32 > 0:16:33because it sounds Spanish,
0:16:33 > 0:16:36- so that's what I'll go for. - Jose Carreras.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Going on the name Jose and getting it right.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40Spain. Correct. Good start, Adam.
0:16:40 > 0:16:47Kevin, who had a UK number-one hit single in 2008 with So What?
0:16:50 > 0:16:52That was Pink.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Pink is correct. Yes, So What?
0:16:55 > 0:16:57And so to you, Adam.
0:16:57 > 0:17:02Which female singer joined up with Boyz II Men on the 1995 single,
0:17:02 > 0:17:06One Sweet Day, which held the number one spot in the US singles chart
0:17:06 > 0:17:09for a record 16 weeks?
0:17:13 > 0:17:17All of them have got really big, powerful, quite scary voices.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20But I know that that is Mariah Carey.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Do you remember it from the teenage years?
0:17:24 > 0:17:26I do, yeah. I didn't like it.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29But you remembered it, that's the main thing for this quiz.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31Mariah Carey is correct.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Kevin, third question each, this is yours.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Which Billie Holiday song
0:17:37 > 0:17:40that protested against racism in the American South
0:17:40 > 0:17:44was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1978?
0:17:49 > 0:17:52I imagine...it could possibly be wrong
0:17:52 > 0:17:54but I would imagine that must be Strange Fruit,
0:17:54 > 0:17:56that's about lynching.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00So that the Strange Fruit obviously is being bodies hanging from trees.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03- Yeah.- So I would think it must be Strange Fruit.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06OK. You've got it and the explanation, thanks for that.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Strange Fruit is correct.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11Billie Holiday's song, inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in '78.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15Adam, 24 Hours,
0:18:15 > 0:18:20released in 2008, was which singer's first new studio album for 15 years?
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Well, I think that it's not Rod Stewart but I might be wrong.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29I don't think it's Cliff Richard
0:18:29 > 0:18:34but I think I remember seeing Tom Jones on Jools Holland,
0:18:34 > 0:18:37singing some songs from the album, 24 Hours.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39So I'm going to go for Tom Jones.
0:18:39 > 0:18:40You know your stuff.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43That's the right answer. Well done.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47It's all square and we go to sudden death again.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49This question for Kevin.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Which hit single by Frankie Goes To Hollywood,
0:18:52 > 0:18:54features the actor Patrick Allen,
0:18:54 > 0:19:00reading lines supposedly taken from the government public information film about nuclear war
0:19:00 > 0:19:02called Protect And Survive?
0:19:02 > 0:19:08Well, logically, I think in the same video you have people
0:19:08 > 0:19:12wearing masks as Reagan and Breshnev,
0:19:12 > 0:19:14at the same time.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16- Two Tribes.- Two Tribes.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18It's the right answer, Kevin. Well done.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25Adam, "I know the kings of England and I quote the fights historical,
0:19:25 > 0:19:29"from Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical,"
0:19:29 > 0:19:33is a line from a song in which Gilbert and Sullivan operetta?
0:19:33 > 0:19:36I'm not sure but I'm going to say...
0:19:37 > 0:19:41- Pirates Of Penzance because I'm just going to have to guess.- OK.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Guessing at the Pirates Of Penzance.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46- It's the Pirates Of Penzance. - Oh, brilliant.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48It's the right answer. Well done.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51OK. Another question each.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Kevin, which folk blues singer
0:19:53 > 0:19:56first recorded the song Rock Island Line
0:19:56 > 0:20:01which gave Lonnie Donegan a 3 million selling hit in 1956?
0:20:01 > 0:20:04I think Rock Island Line was originally Leadbelly.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08Yeah. Think it's Leadbelly.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09- Leadbelly?- Yeah.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11That's the correct answer.
0:20:11 > 0:20:12Adam, right,
0:20:12 > 0:20:14very, very important, then.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16You've got to get this to stay in the game.
0:20:16 > 0:20:23Which Jamaican-born bass baritone was awarded a knighthood in 2004
0:20:23 > 0:20:25for his services to music?
0:20:26 > 0:20:30I really, really don't know.
0:20:30 > 0:20:34I don't think he's that kind of singer but I'll say Eddy Grant.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36I know it's not.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38It's not Eddy Grant.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40I'm sorry, Adam. Kevin?
0:20:40 > 0:20:45- Willard White.- Willard White or Sir Willard White, now.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Sir Willard Wentworth White, it is.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50You won't be in the final round.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Kevin, you're there. Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:20:55 > 0:20:57So this is what we've been playing towards.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00It's time for the final round which is General Knowledge,
0:21:00 > 0:21:03but I'm afraid, those of you who lost your head to heads
0:21:03 > 0:21:04can't take part in this round.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08So Adam, Sharon and Maggie, from Aurora Borealis
0:21:08 > 0:21:11and CJ, from the Eggheads, would you leave the studio, please?
0:21:13 > 0:21:17So, Mike and Elaine, you're playing to win Aurora Borealis £1,000.
0:21:17 > 0:21:22Kevin, Daphne, Chris and Barry, you're playing for something money can't buy,
0:21:22 > 0:21:24your damaged reputation.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30This time, the questions are all general knowledge and you can confer.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Aurora Borealis, the question is,
0:21:32 > 0:21:36are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four brains?
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Mike and Elaine, would you like to go first or second?
0:21:39 > 0:21:41- I think we'll go first.- First.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45- First please, Dermot.- Here we go.
0:21:45 > 0:21:51"15 men on the dead man's chest. Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum,"
0:21:51 > 0:21:55are lines from a sailor's song in which 19th century novel?
0:21:59 > 0:22:03"15 men on the dead men's chest. Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum,"
0:22:03 > 0:22:07are lines from a sailor's song in which 19th century novel?
0:22:07 > 0:22:09I think it's Treasure Island.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12I think you're probably right. I think it's the pirates that go off
0:22:12 > 0:22:15to the Treasure Island so I think you're probably right.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Treasure Island, we think.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21- Treasure Island?- We think so. - "Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum."
0:22:21 > 0:22:23My little boy could have been writing this!
0:22:23 > 0:22:27We've had Pirates Of The Caribbean, now we've got Treasure Island.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29And Treasure Island is correct.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32OK.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Eggheads, first question to you. "If I am to die by the bullet
0:22:35 > 0:22:40"of a madman, I must do so smiling. There must be no anger within me,"
0:22:40 > 0:22:45is a quotation attributed to which political figure only two days before his death?
0:22:49 > 0:22:55- Said in the year I was born, it was Mahatma Gandhi.- OK. Mahatma Gandhi.
0:22:55 > 0:22:56- What year was that, Barry?- 1948.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00- Know how old you are. OK, Barry. You look well on it.- Thank you.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04Mahatma Gandhi is the right answer. Well done, Eggheads.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Aurora Borealis, here's your second question.
0:23:06 > 0:23:10The former England fast bowler, Angus Fraser,
0:23:10 > 0:23:14became the cricket correspondent of which national newspaper in 2002?
0:23:18 > 0:23:21- You're on your own here! - You're on your own, says Elaine.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24- I don't do sport.- I don't know.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27I'd be tempted to go for The Guardian.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31I'm fine with that.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34- As I say, you're on your own. - We're not sure, Dermot,
0:23:34 > 0:23:36but we're going to go for The Guardian.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38OK. The Guardian, Angus Fraser,
0:23:38 > 0:23:42from fast bowler to cricket correspondent, for...
0:23:42 > 0:23:44The Independent.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47It's The Independent.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50So nothing there for Aurora Borealis.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53How will the Eggheads do with their second question? This is it.
0:23:53 > 0:23:59The Bye Plot and the Main Plot, both from 1603,
0:23:59 > 0:24:01were aimed at which English monarch?
0:24:04 > 0:24:06The Bye Plot and the Main Plot,
0:24:06 > 0:24:09both from 1603, were aimed at which English monarch?
0:24:09 > 0:24:11It was James I, Dermot.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13That's the correct answer.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16OK. You've got to get this now, Mike and Elaine.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Good luck with it.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22What resource was mined at the archaeological site in Norfolk
0:24:22 > 0:24:24known as Grimes Graves?
0:24:26 > 0:24:30I wouldn't have thought it was coal.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32I wouldn't have thought it was copper
0:24:32 > 0:24:34because the copper mines tend...
0:24:34 > 0:24:37You don't think it's coal. I don't think it's copper.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39- Let's go for flint.- OK, then.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42We're in agreement.
0:24:42 > 0:24:43Neither of us think it's coal,
0:24:43 > 0:24:47neither of us think it's copper, so we're going to go for flint.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Flint. OK. And it's the right answer. Norfolk flint.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54Taken out of Grimes Graves. OK.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57Well, the Eggheads have got a chance to win the game if they get this.
0:24:57 > 0:25:02According to Japanese legend, what type of creature is Namazu?
0:25:02 > 0:25:06N-A-M-A-Z-U. Thought to be responsible for earthquakes.
0:25:10 > 0:25:15According to Japanese legend, what type of creature is Namazu?
0:25:15 > 0:25:19I'm normally very good on this one but I don't know this one.
0:25:19 > 0:25:24I've not heard of it. My gut reaction would be tortoise.
0:25:24 > 0:25:28That's my, again, instinctive reaction,
0:25:28 > 0:25:32- but I don't know it,- It's definitely likely to be a monkey.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35I understand a catfish being responsible for tidal waves
0:25:35 > 0:25:36but an earthquake?
0:25:36 > 0:25:40An earthquake... It's something that's got to be squat and heavy
0:25:40 > 0:25:41and a tortoise is.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44- We'll just have to go for it. - We'll have to go for it.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Well, we're not 100% certain on this one, Dermot.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50- We're not at all certain. - I think 100%'s putting it a bit...
0:25:50 > 0:25:53- 50%?- We've no idea whatsoever.
0:25:53 > 0:25:5530%? It's a guess.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57It's a guess but an informed guess, perhaps,
0:25:57 > 0:26:01- and we're going to go for tortoise.- OK.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06Namazu thought to be responsible for earthquakes - is there
0:26:06 > 0:26:10going to be another earthquake in Quizland because it's incorrect.
0:26:10 > 0:26:14Another question wrong in the final round from the Eggheads.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Namazu is a catfish.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18It's a catfish.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21We go to sudden death.
0:26:21 > 0:26:22Mike and Elaine, good luck with it.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25Here we go. Kapodistrias Airport, Kerkyra,
0:26:25 > 0:26:30is the international airport for which Mediterranean island?
0:26:30 > 0:26:34Kerkyra. K-E-R-K-Y-R-A.
0:26:34 > 0:26:38Kerkyra is some sort of like Turk, something like Turkish, but...
0:26:38 > 0:26:41THEY CONFER
0:26:41 > 0:26:47Wasn't that like there's half of it sort of like Turkish?
0:26:47 > 0:26:51Turkish Cypriot, which is what I'm thinking.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56Yes. That's the only answer I can come up with. Cyprus.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Well, we can't come up with anything else.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01We're thinking Cyprus, Dermot.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Cyprus.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05I'm afraid you're wrong. Corfu.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08- Oh, Corfu. - Corfu, Kapodistrias Airport. Corfu.
0:27:08 > 0:27:12So, another chance for the Eggheads.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Who is the author, Eggheads, of the 18th-century novel known as
0:27:15 > 0:27:19Fanny Hill, which was banned from publication in the United Kingdom
0:27:19 > 0:27:23until 1970, due to its saucy nature?
0:27:23 > 0:27:25It was John Cleland, Dermot,
0:27:25 > 0:27:28and I'll let you have your copy back in a week or so.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32The answer is... the author of Fanny Hill
0:27:32 > 0:27:36is John Cleland. It's the correct answer, Eggheads. You've won.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44Unlucky, Aurora Borealis. Listen, let's reflect on your performance.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46Really great today.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49Mike, great head to head. Elaine, well played there in the final round
0:27:49 > 0:27:53and look at those players behind you. Maggie, what a performance from you,
0:27:53 > 0:27:55just went wrong in sudden death.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Sharon forgot chemistry, concentrating on pharmacy now.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00Adam, what can I say about that?
0:28:00 > 0:28:04So close to winning against Kevin. Thanks very much for playing today.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07But the Eggheads have done what comes naturally,
0:28:07 > 0:28:09they reign supreme over Quizland again.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11You won't be going home with the £1,000
0:28:11 > 0:28:14which means the money rolls over to the next show.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:16 > 0:28:19Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:19 > 0:28:21have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24£2,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
