0:00:04 > 0:00:07These are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the best quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:35You might recognise them as they are Goliaths in the world of TV quizzes.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38They are the Eggheads.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Taking on our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:40 > 0:00:43are Oliver's Army from Wakefield. The team are friends
0:00:43 > 0:00:48who quiz together at the New Wheel pub in Wrenthorpe. Let's meet them.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Hello. I'm Ollie, I'm 29 and I'm a painter and decorator.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Hi. I'm Michelle. I'm 30 and I'm a children and family worker.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi. I'm Nathan. I'm 25 and I'm a recruitment interviewer.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Hi. I'm Paul. I'm 29 years old.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05I'm a traffic and transport engineer.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09Hi. I'm Adi, I'm 28 and I'm a product manager.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Welcome to you, Oliver's Army. You're Ollie,
0:01:12 > 0:01:14but this is homage to Elvis Costello, is it?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17It is. I was actually named after the song!
0:01:17 > 0:01:20- Were you?- Mum liked the song. - A big fan of his.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22So it's a natural name for the team.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Have you done quizzing together?
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- Now and again.- At the pub? - A couple of times a month
0:01:28 > 0:01:31we go down and have a go on it, yeah.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35Good to see you. Best of luck. See if you can beat the Eggheads.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39Every day there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47Oliver's Army, the Eggheads have won the last seven games.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51Which means £8,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55See if you can do it. Knocking one out straightaway would be good.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59The first subject today is music. Who'd like to play this?
0:01:59 > 0:02:02We've just been discussing Elvis Costello.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05QUIET CONFERRING
0:02:05 > 0:02:07- I'll go for that one.- OK, Nathan.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Who would you like to play from the Eggheads? Any one at this point.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13I think I'm gonna choose Daphne.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Daphne, most certainly. Oh, joy!
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Let's have you both into the question room,
0:02:19 > 0:02:21so you can't confer with your team-mates.
0:02:21 > 0:02:26Right, it's music, Nathan. You decided to play. What type of music do you enjoy?
0:02:26 > 0:02:33No one genre. Everything from Beatles to Radiohead.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36I like some electronic music as well. So a mixture.
0:02:36 > 0:02:41- Do you want to go first or second? - I'd like to go first.
0:02:42 > 0:02:43Best of luck.
0:02:43 > 0:02:50Here you go. The distance in pitch between two notes is known by what name?
0:02:53 > 0:02:58Um, I think arpeggio has something to do with the rhythm of two notes.
0:02:58 > 0:03:03The difference between the rhythm and the pacing.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05So I'll eliminate that one.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09I think the interval is something to do with time.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13I think I'm going to choose interval.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17I thought you were going to pass over that in your summary,
0:03:17 > 0:03:19but that's the right answer.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Good start.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Daphne, who is the subject of the song beginning with the line
0:03:26 > 0:03:31"You better watch out, you better not cry, you'd better not pout, I'm telling you why."
0:03:34 > 0:03:36It's Santa Claus!
0:03:36 > 0:03:40Santa Claus is correct. Well done, Daphne.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44One each. Nathan, second question.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46What was the name of the Gibb brother
0:03:46 > 0:03:49who was not a member of the Bee Gees but had solo hit singles
0:03:49 > 0:03:53in the US and UK with "I Just Want To Be Your Everything"
0:03:53 > 0:03:55and "Shadow Dancing"?
0:03:58 > 0:04:02I'm fairly familiar with the Bee Gees' music
0:04:02 > 0:04:08but other than that, the era's not really one of my times.
0:04:08 > 0:04:12So it's going to be a bit of a guess, really.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16I think I'm gonna go with Pete Gibb.
0:04:16 > 0:04:22As it's Pete and not Peter, I'm just going at that one.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26That sounds a bit more like a rock star?
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- Yeah, maybe. Yeah.- OK. Pete Gibb.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32The Gibb brother who was not a member of the Bee Gees
0:04:32 > 0:04:37was Andy Gibb. Not Pete. Andy Gibb.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41OK. Well, Daphne, a chance for the lead.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45If a tempo instruction on a piece of sheet music
0:04:45 > 0:04:48includes the instruction "Allegro Giacoso"
0:04:48 > 0:04:51that piece should be played fast and what?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Just like me - cheerfully!
0:04:56 > 0:04:57Happily!
0:04:57 > 0:05:01The right answer. Well done, Daphne. You've got two.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Nathan, you've got to concentrate very hard on this one.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07In Mozart's opera The Magic Flute,
0:05:07 > 0:05:09what is Papageno's occupation?
0:05:14 > 0:05:15How are you on opera?
0:05:15 > 0:05:19Not great, I have to admit!
0:05:19 > 0:05:23It's purely guesswork. I'm gonna go with snake-charmer.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27The answer is
0:05:27 > 0:05:29bird-catcher.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31He was a bird-catcher
0:05:31 > 0:05:35so I'm afraid you've caught a couple of questions there
0:05:35 > 0:05:36that didn't suit you.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40The round's over, I'm afraid. You won't be playing in the final round.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Daphne, you will be. Come back and join your teams.
0:05:43 > 0:05:49An unlucky start for Nathan there. Oliver's Army are missing one brain from the final round.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52The Eggheads are all still there. Plenty more questions.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Our next round today is politics.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Who'd like to play politics? It can't be Nathan.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00I'll have a go.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04Who would you like to play from the Eggheads? It can't be Daphne.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07- CJ? - Yeah, let's have a go.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10- CJ for you, Paul?- Yes, please.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14Could I ask Paul and CJ to take their positions in the question room.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19What about politics, Paul? Are you a keen student of politics
0:06:19 > 0:06:22or just current affairs, to keep an eye on things?
0:06:22 > 0:06:26I do try to keep my eye in with current affairs.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30But we'll just have to see how it goes, won't we?
0:06:30 > 0:06:32We will, indeed.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36Do you want to begin or do you want to let CJ start?
0:06:36 > 0:06:40I think I'll take the second set.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45OK. Let CJ start. This is your question then, CJ.
0:06:45 > 0:06:52By what acronym is the Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills,
0:06:52 > 0:06:57the non-ministerial government department of Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Schools
0:06:57 > 0:06:59in England commonly known?
0:07:02 > 0:07:05The Office of Standards in Education
0:07:05 > 0:07:07would be Ofsted.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Thank goodness they shortened it to that!
0:07:10 > 0:07:14Imagine having to say that every time. Ofsted is the right answer.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Good start for CJ.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19OK, Paul. First question for you.
0:07:19 > 0:07:24What term is used to describe a small country with an unstable or despotic government
0:07:24 > 0:07:27dependent on outside financial help
0:07:27 > 0:07:29or the export of a single product?
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Well, I think I know what the answer is
0:07:38 > 0:07:41and there is only one of the terms that I've heard of,
0:07:41 > 0:07:44so I'll go for banana republic.
0:07:44 > 0:07:50Banana republic is the reference to a single source of export income.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54Banana republic is correct. Well done. Good start from Paul.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57OK. Right, CJ. Second question.
0:07:57 > 0:08:03What is the equivalent role to the British Chancellor of the Exchequer in the US administration?
0:08:07 > 0:08:09That's the Secretary of the Treasury.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13No hesitation today, CJ.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17- US politics.- On sure ground there. Yes, it's the right answer.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Secretary of the Treasury.
0:08:19 > 0:08:25Paul, who did Jean-Paul Sartre describe as "not only an intellectual,
0:08:25 > 0:08:28"but also the most complete human being of our age."
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Well,
0:08:35 > 0:08:38I'm trying to place
0:08:38 > 0:08:44when Jean-Paul Sartre would have made the quote.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48Based on that, I'm going to say Winston Churchill.
0:08:49 > 0:08:55Jean-Paul Sartre did not describe Winston Churchill
0:08:55 > 0:08:57in those flattering terms.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Other Eggheads?
0:08:59 > 0:09:00- ALL: Che Guevara.- Che Guevara.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04It means a chance for CJ
0:09:04 > 0:09:05to win the round.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09CJ, before becoming editor of The Spectator in 1999,
0:09:09 > 0:09:14for which national newspaper was Boris Johnson the assistant editor?
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Don't know this one.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27One of his colleagues at The Spectator was Dominic Lawson
0:09:27 > 0:09:31who's more associated with The Daily Telegraph of those three.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37I'm just wondering if they did a little move "en masse" together.
0:09:37 > 0:09:41Got nothing to go on here, so I'll try The Daily Telegraph.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45It's The Daily Telegraph is the right answer.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47CJ worked that one out,
0:09:47 > 0:09:51which means bad news for Oliver's Army and Paul.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55I don't get to put another question to you. CJ's got those three correct already.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58You can't catch him up even if I ask another one.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01So you won't be in the final round. CJ will be.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Both please come back and join your teams.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06The Eggheads have knocked two of you out so far.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10But we've got two more head-to-heads before the final
0:10:10 > 0:10:12so you may be able to level it up before the final.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16Let's try this next subject. Ah, now, this is sport.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- Who'd like to play this one? - You have a go if you want. - I'll have a go. It'll be me,
0:10:21 > 0:10:26- please.- OK, Ollie. Who would you like to play from the Eggheads? Not CJ or Daphne.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28It's gonna have to be Chris.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31- Gonna have to be Chris. - Oh, Bulgaria!
0:10:31 > 0:10:35Could you both please take your positions in the question room.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38Ollie, I know you play a bit of football, don't you?
0:10:38 > 0:10:43- Wrenthorpe Rangers. How do they do? - Division Two of the Wakefield Sunday League.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45They do all right. Not too bad.
0:10:45 > 0:10:49What's it like on a Sunday morning? What time do you kick off?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52There must be a few sore heads around after a Saturday night?
0:10:52 > 0:10:57It does us good to run it off, though. Splay it out a bit.
0:10:57 > 0:11:02- You like a bit of horse-racing too? - I go a couple of times a year, if I get the chance.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05So what's the nearest course to you?
0:11:05 > 0:11:09- Wetherby is the closest. - Oh, yes. Lovely.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12- Do you want to go first or second? - First, please.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Good luck. It's sport you're kicking off. Here you go.
0:11:17 > 0:11:23How do competitors in a luge competition normally position themselves on the luge
0:11:23 > 0:11:25when competing?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32I think I might know this one.
0:11:32 > 0:11:38I don't think they kneel on it, and they don't balance on all fours.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41I think they lie on their backs.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45Having read that, I think they should balance on all fours!
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Yes, they lie on their backs.
0:11:47 > 0:11:52It's the right answer. It's hurtling down the Cresta Run on a tin tray!
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Unlike a Skeleton Bob. The luge is on your back, feet first.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- Skeleton Bob is on your front, head first.- Ooh.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Either one of them, utter madness.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03OK, Chris, your first question.
0:12:03 > 0:12:09Flares and spindles are moves performed on which piece of gymnastic equipment?
0:12:11 > 0:12:16- Perhaps you could demonstrate? - In your dreams!
0:12:16 > 0:12:18No, nightmares!
0:12:19 > 0:12:24There's not much you can do with a vault, apart from vault over it.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28And the pommel horse,
0:12:28 > 0:12:32all you can do is support yourself and swing round and do that thing
0:12:32 > 0:12:34with your legs.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- MOUTHS - But you can do
0:12:36 > 0:12:40quite a lot when you're up there on those rings things.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42So I'll say rings.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45It's the wrong answer. It's not rings. Eggheads?
0:12:45 > 0:12:49- That thing you do with your legs is the spindles! - On the pommel horse.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Pommel horse.
0:12:51 > 0:12:56So, great start for Oliver's Army and Oliver himself.
0:12:56 > 0:13:01Keep it up for the next two questions and gain a place in the final round.
0:13:01 > 0:13:06Matthew Le Tissier played over 400 matches for which club
0:13:06 > 0:13:08between 1986 and 2002?
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Matthew Le Tissier played over 400 matches for which club
0:13:14 > 0:13:18between 1986 and 2002?
0:13:19 > 0:13:22An absolutely fantastic player,
0:13:22 > 0:13:26a bit underrated if I'm being honest, in my opinion.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29That would be Southampton, he played for.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Yes, Matt Le Tissier.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Long-serving Southampton player.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37OK. You've got to get this, Chris.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Samit Patel and Owais Shah
0:13:40 > 0:13:43have represented England in which sport?
0:13:45 > 0:13:47Now these sound like
0:13:47 > 0:13:52gentlemen with origins in the Indian sub-continent.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56I don't think they played rugby union.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00They might be cricketers,
0:14:00 > 0:14:04but gentlemen of Pakistani origins
0:14:04 > 0:14:08have been very good and very prominent in squash. So squash.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10OK, squash.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Samit Patel and Owais Shah have represented England
0:14:13 > 0:14:16in...cricket!
0:14:16 > 0:14:18You're out!
0:14:19 > 0:14:21That's it.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25A very short round. It's fallen your way, Oliver.
0:14:25 > 0:14:30The fight-back begins from Oliver's Army. 2-nil. Great quizzing, Oliver.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33You have your place in the final. Both come back and join your teams.
0:14:34 > 0:14:39Oliver's Army are fighting back. The Eggheads are missing one brain from the final.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41They've lost to Oliver's Army.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45So, our last head-to-head before the final. It's Geography.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Michelle or Adi are the two remaining members of Oliver's Army.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52- Adi?- Adi.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Want me to take it? OK.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56- Yeah.- You're going for it? - Absolutely.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01So the remaining Eggheads are Barry and Judith.
0:15:01 > 0:15:02- Barry?- Yeah.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04We'll take Barry, please.
0:15:04 > 0:15:09Could I ask Adi and Barry to take their positions in the question room.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15Adi, you're playing Geography. I know you travel a lot for your work.
0:15:15 > 0:15:19Yes, just the other week I came back from Dubai.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21I've been out there for eight days.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25Doing a little bit of work and a bit of drinking.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26That's what I wanted to ask.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30Is it off the flight, into the hotel and then work all day
0:15:30 > 0:15:34and come back, or do you manage to look around these places?
0:15:34 > 0:15:39Yes, you get the odd day or before you start work or afterwards
0:15:39 > 0:15:41to enjoy the surroundings.
0:15:41 > 0:15:45- Where else have you been?- I've been to Germany earlier this year.
0:15:45 > 0:15:50Dusseldorf. And I was also in Germany for a stag do as well. So a bit different!
0:15:50 > 0:15:56Absolutely. Good place for a stag do. OK. Would you like to go first or second, Adi?
0:15:56 > 0:15:58I'll go first, if it's OK.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04Course it's OK, Adi. That's the rules. You get to choose.
0:16:04 > 0:16:08First question. The industrial area known as Silicone Glen,
0:16:08 > 0:16:14traditionally a major player in the global technology market, is in which part of the UK?
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I'm thinking through...
0:16:23 > 0:16:28I'm not too sure straight off the top of my head
0:16:28 > 0:16:33but I'm associating the Glen and being forced towards Scotland.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37I'll say Scotland.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40Scotland for Silicone Glen. Absolutely right, yes.
0:16:40 > 0:16:45Good start. Making sure there. Where precisely is Silicone Glen?
0:16:45 > 0:16:48Between Edinburgh and Glasgow in the old coalmining areas.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Barry, first question. The coastal resort of Skegness
0:16:54 > 0:16:56is in which English county?
0:16:58 > 0:17:01The coastal resort of Skegness is in which English county?
0:17:01 > 0:17:04Bracing Skegness is in Lincolnshire.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08That's right. Second question apiece coming up. You first, Adi.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Which US state lies on the Eastern Seaboard
0:17:12 > 0:17:17sandwiched between the larger states of Connecticut and Massachusetts?
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Have you been to the United States, Adi?
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Only to New York on holiday
0:17:25 > 0:17:29but geography is not entirely my strongest subject.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Between Connecticut and Massachusetts.
0:17:34 > 0:17:39Looking at those answers, I'm straying towards Rhode Island.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43Whether that's the right answer or not remains to be seen.
0:17:43 > 0:17:44Yes, Rhode Island.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47It is the right answer. Well done. Rhode Island.
0:17:52 > 0:17:57Barry, the Oder River rises in which European country?
0:18:00 > 0:18:04The Oder River rises in which European country?
0:18:04 > 0:18:06This is an interesting question.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08It's not the Ukraine.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12The Oder and the Neisse used to form the boundary
0:18:12 > 0:18:14between Poland and Germany
0:18:14 > 0:18:17but does it rise in Germany or does it rise in the Czech Republic?
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Hmm. I'm not 100% certain on this.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29If it rises in Germany, it's probably rising in the Black Forest.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33Or in the Czech Republic it would be possibly the Tatra mountains.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35The Oder.
0:18:40 > 0:18:41Gosh.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48I'm going to say the Czech Republic.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51And it then flows into Germany.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53Czech Republic.
0:18:53 > 0:19:00OK. The Oder rises in the Czech Republic. It's the right answer.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01Well done.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05Very important for both of you, this next question. Adi,
0:19:05 > 0:19:09of which country is Arunachal Pradesh
0:19:09 > 0:19:11a north-easterly state?
0:19:15 > 0:19:19We do have customers at work in each of those countries, so I should know this!
0:19:19 > 0:19:22Speaking to some of the other bases.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29Could I have the name of the city again, please?
0:19:29 > 0:19:35It's a state. Of which country is Arunachal Pradesh a north-easterly state?
0:19:35 > 0:19:38I'll spell it. It's two words.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41A-R-U-N-A-C-H-A-L
0:19:41 > 0:19:45and the second word, Pradesh, P-R-A-D-E-S-H.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48Arunachal Pradesh.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51I'm gonna go with Pakistan.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55I think. Yeah, I'll go with Pakistan, please.
0:19:55 > 0:20:00OK. Arunachal Pradesh is in India.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03It's an Indian state.
0:20:03 > 0:20:08A high-scoring round. The first incorrect answer gives Barry a chance to wrap up the round.
0:20:08 > 0:20:14The Gulf of Gabez and the Gulf of Sidra are on the northern coastline of which continent?
0:20:17 > 0:20:21The Gulf of Sidra is on the northern coastline of Libya. So Africa.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Africa is correct, Barry. Yes.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29You knew that. It means you're through to the final round.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33Bad luck, Adi. Well played. Both please go and join your teams.
0:20:34 > 0:20:38This is what we've been playing towards, the final round,
0:20:38 > 0:20:40which, as always, is general knowledge.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads can't take part.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Nathan, Paul and Adi, and Chris from the Eggheads,
0:20:48 > 0:20:50would you all leave the studio now, please?
0:20:50 > 0:20:56Michelle, let's have a chat with you. You didn't have the ordeal of the question room.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Is that because you were held back by the team
0:20:58 > 0:21:00or your subject didn't come up?
0:21:00 > 0:21:04The subject I fancied didn't turn up in the end.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07- What would you have gone for? - Food and Drink.
0:21:07 > 0:21:12- Because I know you're a keen vegetable grower.- I am, yes.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15I used to have an allotment, a couple of years ago
0:21:15 > 0:21:18and that was great fun. It was fantastic.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21I grew all kinds of vegetables. It was great.
0:21:21 > 0:21:27There must be nothing better than having fresh vegetables that you know you've grown organically.
0:21:27 > 0:21:32- From plot to plate in a few minutes. - Yes. I'm a vegetarian as well, so that helps.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36Everyone tended to share things. It was really good.
0:21:36 > 0:21:42Best of luck today. Ollie and Michelle, you're playing to win Oliver's Army £8,000.
0:21:42 > 0:21:48CJ, Daphne, Barry and Judith, you're playing for something money can't buy. The Eggheads' reputation.
0:21:48 > 0:21:52I'll ask each team three questions in turn. The questions are general knowledge
0:21:52 > 0:21:54and you are allowed to confer.
0:21:54 > 0:21:59Oliver's Army, the question is, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:21:59 > 0:22:01Ollie and Michelle, will you go first or second?
0:22:01 > 0:22:04- Shall we go first?- Do you think?
0:22:04 > 0:22:07- Yeah, we'll go first.- OK. - First, please, Dermot.
0:22:09 > 0:22:13OK. Good luck. First question, they're all general knowledge.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Anything can occur. Here's the question to kick you off.
0:22:16 > 0:22:21Which actor had a voice that was described by Alec Guinness as
0:22:21 > 0:22:24"like a silver trumpet muffled in silk?"
0:22:28 > 0:22:31- Do you know this one?- No, I don't.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33I don't know this one. I've not heard it.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37Never heard anything about any quotes like that.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43If I was to go for one, I'd probably pick out David Niven.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45I don't know.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48I'm afraid it has to be a total guess.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50- David?- Hazard a guess at David.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52- David Niven.- David Niven.
0:22:52 > 0:22:56"Like a silver trumpet muffled in silk"
0:22:56 > 0:23:00he said of his old mate John Gielgud. John Gielgud.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03So nothing there.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07Let's see how the Eggheads do with their first one.
0:23:07 > 0:23:12What is the title of J. Meade Falkner's 1898 smuggling adventure set in Dorset?
0:23:12 > 0:23:14in the 18th century?
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Daphne says that is Moonfleet.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23- Definitely.- Definitely Moonfleet.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26- Kidnapped is Stevenson and Ivanhoe is Scott.- OK.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30- Moonfleet it is, then.- They made a very good film of it.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33- Stewart Granger. - I think I've seen that.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36I've read this at school, as well, Moonfleet.
0:23:36 > 0:23:37Yes.
0:23:37 > 0:23:41J. Meade Falkner's smuggling adventure is called Moonfleet.
0:23:41 > 0:23:46So, the lead for the Eggheads after the first exchanges.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51Let's get you firing, Oliver's Army. Your second question. In England,
0:23:51 > 0:23:54the three core subjects in the National Curriculum
0:23:54 > 0:23:56are Maths, English and which other?
0:23:59 > 0:24:03- Definitely Science. - You know that one?- Yeah.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04I'd go with Science.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Michelle knows this one she says
0:24:07 > 0:24:09and it's Science.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Putting it all on Michelle?
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Let her take the blame.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Well, take the glory. It's the right answer.
0:24:17 > 0:24:18Good one.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20Got you off the mark.
0:24:20 > 0:24:25Eggheads, in which American city would you find the City Lights Bookshop?
0:24:28 > 0:24:32In which American city would you find The City Lights Bookshop.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39I think it's the very liberal one that does all the gay rallies.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44- In San Francisco? - That was my immediate thought.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47I'm trying to picture it cos I know San Fran quite well.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49I can't picture where it is,
0:24:49 > 0:24:51but that was my first thought.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Oh, it might be the one in Haight-Ashbury.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57- It might be that one. - So San Francisco.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01That's my instinct but unfortunately I can't picture exactly where it is.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05So I'm happy to listen to any other input here.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08OK, let's go for that, then.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11- Yeah?- I'm delighted to have found a new bookshop I hadn't heard of!
0:25:11 > 0:25:15Apologies in advance!
0:25:15 > 0:25:18This is down to CJ. It's in San Francisco.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21I like the way that discussion went.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24CJ, lots of information there.
0:25:24 > 0:25:28"I'm happy for other input", he said. Judith goes, "Let's go for that, then!"
0:25:29 > 0:25:33Not really any other input from the Eggheads. CJ,
0:25:33 > 0:25:38it is...the correct answer, yes. San Francisco.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42You remembered. It means, Ollie and Michelle, you've got to get this.
0:25:42 > 0:25:47With whose band did Frank Sinatra make 83 recordings
0:25:47 > 0:25:48from 1940 to 1942?
0:25:53 > 0:25:55- Any ideas?- Nope.
0:25:57 > 0:26:01- I've not even heard of any of these. - Nor have I.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06Not my kind of music that I like listening to. No idea at all.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10What one shall we go with?
0:26:11 > 0:26:15Tommy - that's near your granddad's name, Thomas.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17I'll go middle for diddle.
0:26:17 > 0:26:21- Are you sure?- Yeah. Artie Shaw.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24With whose band did Frank Sinatra make 83 recordings
0:26:24 > 0:26:26from 1940 to 1942?
0:26:26 > 0:26:28You're not going with Tommy?
0:26:28 > 0:26:30I don't know. What do you want?
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Your guess is as good as mine. I haven't got a clue.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35You're the captain. You decide.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40We'll go with the middle one, Artie Shaw.
0:26:40 > 0:26:45Artie Shaw. Frank Sinatra, 83 recordings. He was working hard!
0:26:45 > 0:26:47Between 1940 and 1942,
0:26:47 > 0:26:48with Tommy Dorsey!
0:26:48 > 0:26:52I know you were thinking of that. That's your granddad's name?
0:26:52 > 0:26:56- It was, yeah. Tommy. Should have gone with it.- Tommy Dorsey.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Eggheads, wasn't this the fodder for a sub-plot in The Godfather?
0:26:59 > 0:27:01The Johnny Fontane thing?
0:27:01 > 0:27:04Yes, he did play a Frank Sinatra-like figure.
0:27:04 > 0:27:10But Johnny Fontane was in a contract with a band, a big band,
0:27:10 > 0:27:14- that he couldn't get out of and that leads to... - He wanted a movie contract.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Johnny Fontane wanted a part in a big movie
0:27:16 > 0:27:21which the producer wouldn't give him. Sinatra wanted to break into movies.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24- His first major role was... - There's a story in The Godfather
0:27:24 > 0:27:27about Luca Brasi getting him out of a contract with a band leader.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Ah, of course!
0:27:29 > 0:27:33That's where they get the parallels with Fontane and Frank Sinatra.
0:27:33 > 0:27:38There we are. Frank Sinatra made 83 recordings from 1940 to 1942
0:27:38 > 0:27:43with Tommy Dorsey, not Artie Shaw. Which means, Eggheads, you've won.
0:27:49 > 0:27:53- Bad luck, Oliver's Army. Those questions didn't fall your way.- No.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56The head-to-heads could have been very different.
0:27:56 > 0:28:01Nathan got a couple of questions not suited to him. Paul ran into the buffers
0:28:01 > 0:28:04and Adi, I thought you'd do it until the last question.
0:28:04 > 0:28:08Thanks for playing Eggheads, Oliver's Army. Great to see you.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10Best of luck with the future.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13The Eggheads' winning streak continues.
0:28:13 > 0:28:18You won't be going home with £8,000 which means the money rolls over to next show.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:21 > 0:28:26Join us next time to see if new challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:26 > 0:28:29£9,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye!
