0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable
0:00:13 > 0:00:15quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question 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 > 0:00:31attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33Their quiz pedigree is well known, as they have won
0:00:33 > 0:00:37some of the country's toughest quizzes. They are the Eggheads.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40Challenging our resident quiz Goliaths today are
0:00:40 > 0:00:44the Townsend Saints from Hertfordshire.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48They are old school friends who attended Townsend Church of England Secondary School in St Albans.
0:00:48 > 0:00:54With their schooldays behind them, they now do their learning at various pub quizzes.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57- Let's meet them.- Hi, I'm Chris.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59I'm 24 and I'm an insurance clerk.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Hi, my name's Tom. I'm 24 and I'm a trainee accountant.
0:01:03 > 0:01:04Hi, my name is Lisa.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07I'm 24 and I'm an operations co-ordinator.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11Hi, my name is Matt. I'm 23 and I'm a civil servant.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15Hi, I'm Joe. I'm 27 and I'm an invoicing co-ordinator.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18So, Chris, you're all from the same school originally?
0:01:18 > 0:01:21That's right. We went to secondary school at Townsend
0:01:21 > 0:01:23and we've remained friends since.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26And secretly competitive with each other?
0:01:26 > 0:01:30Not so much secretly. But we do, especially with sports and if we're on the same quiz team,
0:01:30 > 0:01:33we try to come up with the right answer first.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36You can't win this individually, you work as a team!
0:01:36 > 0:01:37Oh, yes. I understand that!
0:01:37 > 0:01:41Insurance clerk, trainee accountant, operations co-ordinator,
0:01:41 > 0:01:44civil servant, invoice and mailing co-ordinator.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46These are your professions - is there a theme here?
0:01:46 > 0:01:50Yes. None of us knew what we wanted to do when we left school!
0:01:50 > 0:01:54Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs
0:01:54 > 0:01:57for our challengers. But if they fail to beat the Eggheads,
0:01:57 > 0:02:00the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04So, Townsend Saints, the Eggheads have won the last 11 games,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07which means £12,000 says you can't beat them.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08- Is that all right?- Yep.
0:02:08 > 0:02:13First head-to-head battle is on the subject of Geography.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Which one of you wants this?
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- I don't know. What do you reckon, guys?- I was going to hold out
0:02:18 > 0:02:21for Arts, but I'll give Geography a go. To get rid of it.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24- Yes? Confident? Cool?- Yes.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Joe, on Geography.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28What d'you reckon for the Eggheads?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- I'll take on Chris. Definitely.- Yes?
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Why Chris definitely?
0:02:34 > 0:02:36HE LAUGHS
0:02:36 > 0:02:40He's just a person that symbolises the Eggheads the most.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43In other words, they want rid.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Celebrity status has arrived for Chris.- An archetypal quizzer.- OK.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51So it's Joe from the Townsend Saints against Chris from the Eggheads.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55To ensure there's no conferring, would you please take your positions
0:02:55 > 0:02:57in the Question Room.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00I'm going to ask each of you three multiple choice questions.
0:03:00 > 0:03:04You get to choose, first or second set, Joe?
0:03:04 > 0:03:06I'll take the second set, please.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Chris - the island of Ikaria,
0:03:10 > 0:03:15said to be named after the legendary Icarus, belongs to which country?
0:03:18 > 0:03:21I don't think many islands belong to Spain, apart from
0:03:21 > 0:03:23the Balearics and the Canaries.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27And apart from...
0:03:27 > 0:03:31Sicily and Sardinia, I don't think Italy owns many islands.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34But Greece is known for having masses of islands, plus Icarus
0:03:34 > 0:03:36was a Greek, so I'll say Greece.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40Greece is correct. Well done. One point to you.
0:03:40 > 0:03:45Joe, over to you. In Scotland, what type of geographical feature
0:03:45 > 0:03:47is often known as a burn?
0:03:53 > 0:03:54I wouldn't say a hill.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57I think they have different... I can't think of the words,
0:03:57 > 0:04:00but there are different words for hills and mountains.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04What I get in my head is an image of a Scottish man, "Wee burn"!
0:04:04 > 0:04:08So...I don't think you'd describe a wood as "wee"
0:04:08 > 0:04:10so I'll go for stream.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Your team are enjoying the logic here.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Is he right, team, d'you think?
0:04:17 > 0:04:19- I think so, yes.- He is right.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Well done. Stream, it is.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Chris, the year 1900 saw the opening
0:04:25 > 0:04:28of which city's metro transit system?
0:04:33 > 0:04:36The Moscow Metro came later.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40The New York subway, I think, was slightly later.
0:04:40 > 0:04:46But the Paris Metro opened all in one lump in 1900, with all those
0:04:46 > 0:04:49iconic Art Nouveau stations. So it was Paris.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Tough question. But Paris is the answer.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Well, I would know that, wouldn't I?
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Yes. With your train driving background.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00Back to you, Joe. The American city of Minneapolis is located
0:05:00 > 0:05:02on the banks of which river?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14I don't have any idea where Minneapolis is.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17I'm going to have to try and work this out a different way.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20I can't just say it sounds like Mississippi a bit.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23For that reason, I'll take Mississippi out.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25We'll work with Colorado and Rio Grande.
0:05:25 > 0:05:30Rio Grande sounds like it spends more time in central and
0:05:30 > 0:05:33southern Mexico...and America.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36So, I think I'll go for Colorado.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Colorado River is your answer.
0:05:38 > 0:05:44I'm afraid it was the one it sounded like. Mississippi.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47So you're wrong. So Chris, your chance to take the round
0:05:47 > 0:05:49with the third question. Here we go.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Where in London is Rotten Row?
0:05:56 > 0:05:58It comes from Route du Roi - the way of the King -
0:05:58 > 0:06:01and it's at the southern edge of Hyde Park,
0:06:01 > 0:06:03parallel with Kensington Gore.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06It's a horse-riding track.
0:06:06 > 0:06:07Hyde Park is your answer?
0:06:07 > 0:06:10And it's correct. Chris, congratulations to you.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14You'll be playing for the Eggheads in the final. Joe,
0:06:14 > 0:06:17I'm sorry, you've been beaten. You won't be joining us in the final.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Please, both of you, come back to the studio.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23So, as it stands, the challengers have lost
0:06:23 > 0:06:27one brain from the final round. The Eggheads have lost no brains.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Our next subject is Sport.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33Who's the Sports person? I reckon you all are, actually.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Well, we hope we're quite strong on this.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38We were hoping that every option would be Sport.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40THEY LAUGH
0:06:40 > 0:06:44I'm thinking either Tom or Matt. They're the strongest on Sport.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48- Along with Joe. - I'll be happy to take it.- Yes? OK.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Matt against...? Now, the tough one.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54OK. I reckon we'll go with Daphne. Does everyone agree with that?
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Daphne, yes. Definitely.
0:06:57 > 0:07:01Matt from the Townsend Saints against Daphne from the Eggheads.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Please take your positions in the Question Room.
0:07:04 > 0:07:08I'm going to ask each of you three questions on Sport in turn.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Matt, choose the first or the second set.
0:07:10 > 0:07:11I'll have first, please.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17In which sport is Hong Kong's Marco Fu
0:07:17 > 0:07:18a well-known competitor?
0:07:21 > 0:07:25OK. It's not badminton. It's definitely not that one.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29I like a bit of golf and the name doesn't ring a bell and
0:07:29 > 0:07:31I know that it's snooker. I'm gonna go with snooker.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Brilliant. You're right. Snooker it is.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Daphne, your question. What's the name of the campaign launched
0:07:38 > 0:07:45by the FA at the start of the 2008/9 season, aimed at combating
0:07:45 > 0:07:49unacceptable behaviour on the pitch and from the sidelines?
0:07:54 > 0:07:57I haven't heard of it. Sorry.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00It doesn't sound like Honour.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Respect?
0:08:05 > 0:08:09I don't know. Respect sounds the most possible.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- It's right.- Oh!- Well done. Respect.
0:08:12 > 0:08:17Matt, Romania's Constantina Tomescu took the gold medal
0:08:17 > 0:08:23in which athletics event at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games?
0:08:30 > 0:08:33I watched some of the Olympic Games.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Usain Bolt was brilliant in the 100 meters.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39But the name doesn't ring a bell to me.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43I'm going to go, probably...high jump.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Because javelin would be for stronger events.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48I'm gonna go with high jump, I think.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50- Eggheads?- Marathon.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Marathon. Marathon was right.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Constantina was a marathon runner.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Daphne, your question. Who was the first left-handed player
0:09:00 > 0:09:03to win the Ladies' singles title at Wimbledon?
0:09:09 > 0:09:15I've just got a feeling that Ann Jones was a left-handed player
0:09:15 > 0:09:18and she certainly won it before the other two.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21So, I should go with Ann Jones.
0:09:21 > 0:09:22Ann Jones is correct.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24You're pulling away.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27You need this one Matt, OK?
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Otherwise you're not in the final. Here we go.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34Australia cricket captain Ricky Ponting plays for which team
0:09:34 > 0:09:35in domestic cricket?
0:09:42 > 0:09:45I'm a big fan of cricket.
0:09:45 > 0:09:50Obviously, if it was county clubs in England I'd have a better chance.
0:09:50 > 0:09:54But I think Ricky Ponting is from Melbourne, which I know
0:09:54 > 0:09:56is probably New South Wales.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01I'm probably going to go with New South Wales Blues.
0:10:01 > 0:10:05New South Wales Blues.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Let me ask your team, because they're looking agitated.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10When Australia were playing South Africa recently
0:10:10 > 0:10:14at Tasmania, they were saying it was Ponting's own ground and
0:10:14 > 0:10:15he hadn't scored a century there.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19Yes. Sorry, Matt. It's Tasmanian Tigers.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Well done, Daphne. Matt, you were beaten by our Egghead,
0:10:22 > 0:10:26and as a result you'll not be able to help your team in the final round.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30Would you both please come back and rejoin your team-mates.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Townsend Saints, as it stands you've lost
0:10:32 > 0:10:36two brains from the final round. The Eggheads have lost no brains.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Next subject is Film And TV.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41- Lisa, Tom or Chris? - I'll have a go at it.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Yes? Go for it, Lisa.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Well done, Lisa. Well done.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Against who?
0:10:48 > 0:10:49- Um...- Against whom?- Judith?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52- Judith, please.- Judith.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55So, it's Lisa from the Townsend Saints
0:10:55 > 0:10:56against Judith from the Eggheads.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions
0:11:00 > 0:11:02in the Question Room.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06OK. Let's see how you do. I'll ask each of you three questions
0:11:06 > 0:11:11on Film And TV in turn. Lisa, first or second set?
0:11:11 > 0:11:13Can I go first please, Jeremy?
0:11:13 > 0:11:17Lisa, Paddy Garvey and Dave Tucker were characters
0:11:17 > 0:11:21in which TV series of the 1990s?
0:11:25 > 0:11:29Tucker. That's ringing bells with me for some reason.
0:11:29 > 0:11:33I don't know why. I think I'm going to go with Soldier, Soldier.
0:11:33 > 0:11:34I'm thinking of...
0:11:34 > 0:11:37I dunno. I'm thinking of Robson Green. I don't know if that's
0:11:37 > 0:11:39something completely different.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41But I'm going to go with Soldier, Soldier.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44- It's the right answer. Well done.- Yay!
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Well done.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50OK, Judith, here we go. Who provides the voice
0:11:50 > 0:11:56of Alex the lion in the 2006 animated film, Madagascar?
0:12:01 > 0:12:06I know Jack Black does somebody's voice. I read this the other day.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11I going to say Jack Black.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13It's the wrong answer. It's Ben Stiller.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15I know, he's Kung Fu Panda.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17I've just got it, damn it!
0:12:17 > 0:12:19It's always great when you swear.
0:12:19 > 0:12:20You can always cut it out.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Foul-mouthed interventions!
0:12:22 > 0:12:26THEY LAUGH
0:12:26 > 0:12:29OK, over to you, Lisa.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33In the 1970s sitcom Citizen Smith, how did Hilda Braid's character, Mum,
0:12:33 > 0:12:37regularly refer to Robert Lindsay's Wolfie Smith?
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Oh, my goodness.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48I'm going to go for,
0:12:48 > 0:12:52and this is an absolute guess because I have just no idea...
0:12:54 > 0:12:56..Jonesy.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59He's called Wolfie, but she's calling him Foxy.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Foxy was the right answer.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05What was going on, she was getting it wrong deliberately or...?
0:13:05 > 0:13:08She wasn't the sharpest needle in the knitting set, actually.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11I see. So it was not deliberate?
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Foxy.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17Judith, Sir Digby Chicken Caesar
0:13:17 > 0:13:22and sidekick Ginger are two regular characters from which sketch show?
0:13:29 > 0:13:34I haven't watched Little Britain USA and I love Little Britain.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36So, I'm kicking myself.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40I going to say Little Britain...USA.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42It's not.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45It's That Mitchell And Webb Look.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49OK, Lisa. If you get this right, there's no way back for Judith.
0:13:49 > 0:13:53- You will be playing in the final round.- OK.
0:13:53 > 0:13:59Who directed Sid And Nancy, the 1986 film biography of Sex Pistols
0:13:59 > 0:14:02bass player Sid Vicious?
0:14:08 > 0:14:14OK. Another one where I really don't have any idea at all.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17I feel like I've heard of Julien Temple, but I can't think why.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20I'm going to go for Julien Temple for that reason.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23He's the only one that I feel like I've heard of before.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25The right answer is Alex Cox. Sorry.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28OK.
0:14:28 > 0:14:29Judith, you need this.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32If you don't get this right, you're not in the final round.
0:14:32 > 0:14:37Which actor, born in 1913, began his showbusiness career in the circus
0:14:37 > 0:14:41as part of the acrobatic act, Lang And Cravat,
0:14:41 > 0:14:46until a finger injury caused him to retire in 1939?
0:14:50 > 0:14:54I think that's Burt Lancaster.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Burt Lancaster is the right answer.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00Yeah, brilliant actor. And he has got you back into it, Judith.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04So you've got level scores after three questions each.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07That means it gets a bit harder. We go to Sudden Death
0:15:07 > 0:15:10and these questions are not multiple choice.
0:15:10 > 0:15:17Lisa, which actor played the role of Jesse James in the 2007 film
0:15:17 > 0:15:21The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford?
0:15:21 > 0:15:24- I think it's Brad Pitt. - Is that your answer?- Yes.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26- And it's right.- Yes!
0:15:26 > 0:15:30So, the pressure is on you now, Judith.
0:15:30 > 0:15:31If you get this wrong, you are out.
0:15:31 > 0:15:36In which TV series did the former Doctor Who actor Christopher Eccleston
0:15:36 > 0:15:40appear as DCI Bilborough, who was memorably killed
0:15:40 > 0:15:44by a psychotic Liverpool fan played by Robert Carlyle?
0:15:44 > 0:15:46I don't know.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50I just don't watch telly enough.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54I've no idea. I simply can't think.
0:15:54 > 0:15:59- Sorry.- No answer, just sorry?- Yup.
0:15:59 > 0:16:00It was Cracker.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Cracker.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05So Lisa, well done.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09Well done. You turned it around for your team, that's great.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13So, you took on our Egghead and you beat her, and that means that you,
0:16:13 > 0:16:17Lisa, will be in the final round. Judith, I'm sorry, you won't.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20Do please, both of you, come back to us.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22As it stands, the challengers have lost two brains
0:16:22 > 0:16:25from the final round. The Eggheads have lost one brain.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Our last subject is Music.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31Which of you wants Music? It has to be Tom or Chris.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35I don't know anything in the past 30 years, Chris.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Tom actually said to me once that he's given up on music entirely.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41So I think I'm going to go up for that one.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43We almost want to see Tom do it.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46Just to see what the catastrophe would look like!
0:16:46 > 0:16:49If the questions are selectively on the Kinks and...
0:16:49 > 0:16:52yes, just the Kinks, then he'll be all right.
0:16:52 > 0:16:53Or the Beach Boys.
0:16:53 > 0:16:57- So, Chris against...? - I think we'll take Barry.
0:16:57 > 0:17:01So, it's Chris from the Townsend Saints against Barry
0:17:01 > 0:17:03from the Eggheads. They are going to try and take you out.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11OK, Chris. I'm going to ask each of you three questions on music
0:17:11 > 0:17:13in turn. Chris, you can choose the first or second set.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15I think I'll go first.
0:17:17 > 0:17:22Chris, which singer who had a UK Top Ten single in 1978
0:17:22 > 0:17:27with I Lost My Heart To A Starship Trooper,
0:17:27 > 0:17:29married Andrew Lloyd Webber in 1984?
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Andrew Lloyd Webber...
0:17:37 > 0:17:40Just trying to think of maybe seeing him with someone.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42I'd know who Bonnie Langford is.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49Whenever I do a quiz and I don't know the answer, I always middle it.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51They tend to be right more often than not.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53So I'm going to middle it. Elaine Page.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55It's the wrong answer.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Sarah Brightman, it was.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00OK, Barry. Your question.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03The Tears Of A Clown topped the UK chart
0:18:03 > 0:18:08in 1970 for which singer and The Miracles?
0:18:12 > 0:18:16I'm afraid to admit that I still thoroughly enjoy Motown music.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20The Tears Of A Clown was memorably sung by Smokey Robinson
0:18:20 > 0:18:22and The Miracles.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25Great song, great artist, you're right. Smokey Robinson.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28Well done. One point to you. Chris, you've got to catch up.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32The words to which hymn were written in 1963
0:18:32 > 0:18:37by Sydney Carter, although the tune dates back to the 19th century?
0:18:44 > 0:18:45I've got a feeling Silent Night,
0:18:45 > 0:18:47from somewhere at the back of my head,
0:18:47 > 0:18:51I think that might be a German song originally written in German.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53I'm going to go for Lord Of The Dance.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56I'm sure I've heard people sing Amazing Grace before that.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00So Lord Of The Dance, just by process of elimination.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01Great, well done. You're right.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04You're right!
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Barry, your question now.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10In 1978, David Van Day and Thereza Bazar formed the pop duo Dollar
0:19:10 > 0:19:14after having hits such as There's A Whole Lot Of Loving
0:19:14 > 0:19:16as part of which other group?
0:19:21 > 0:19:25Well, Manhattan Transfer's only hit was Chanson d'Amour.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27And I don't think they were in that.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30And I'm certain they weren't in The New Seekers.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33So I think the answer is Guys 'n' Dolls.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35Yeah, it is Guys 'n' Dolls.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Your question, Chris.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42And you need this to put pressure on Barry.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46Otherwise you can't come back. What type of musical instrument
0:19:46 > 0:19:50was the 17th century shalumo?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00I don't know this answer, but I'll try and use the great logic I used
0:20:00 > 0:20:04on the last question to get to it.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07I don't think it's a keyboard.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Possibly percussion or woodwind.
0:20:10 > 0:20:15I've never heard of this instrument. I'm sure it's very obvious.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17But I'm going to go for...
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Using the same logic as I did last time, I'm going to go for
0:20:20 > 0:20:23the one I discounted first of all. Keyboard.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29Your logic has totally baffled me. I don't know what you're doing.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33I have to say, it's not working that well, cos keyboard is wrong.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35It's woodwind in fact.
0:20:35 > 0:20:39Chris, I'm sorry, there isn't any way back with only three questions.
0:20:39 > 0:20:43So Barry, well done. Chris, you were beaten by our Egghead.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46You won't be joining your team in the final round.
0:20:46 > 0:20:50Barry, you will be. Please both of you come back to the studio.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52This is what we've been playing towards.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55It's time for the final round, which is General Knowledge.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:20:57 > 0:21:00won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03So Chris, Matt, and Joe from the Townsend Saints,
0:21:03 > 0:21:05and also Judith from the Eggheads,
0:21:05 > 0:21:08are going to have to leave the studio now.
0:21:08 > 0:21:12Tom and Lisa, you are playing to win the Townsend Saints £12,000.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15Daphne, Chris, Barry and Kevin, you are playing for something
0:21:15 > 0:21:19that money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25This time the questions are all General Knowledge.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27You are allowed to confer, you two.
0:21:27 > 0:21:31Townsend Saints, the question is, are your two brains better
0:21:31 > 0:21:34than the Eggheads' four? Tom and Lisa,
0:21:34 > 0:21:35first or second set of questions?
0:21:35 > 0:21:39- What do we think?- I think first. Put the heat on them.- Yeah.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41We're going to go first, I think.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47The name of which punctuation mark is shared by that
0:21:47 > 0:21:49of a brightly coloured butterfly found in Britain?
0:21:55 > 0:21:58I don't know. Comma...
0:21:58 > 0:22:00- It sounds...- Comma?
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Yeah. I don't know why.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05I always thought hyphen sounded like a living thing.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07I'm thinking comma. I don't know why.
0:22:07 > 0:22:11- You're really pushing for comma? - Yeah, but if it goes all wrong...
0:22:11 > 0:22:17If it does go wrong...we'll win as a team and lose as a team, Lisa.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20- OK.- I think we'll go with Lisa. Given she's had
0:22:20 > 0:22:22a winning record so far.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25- And we'll go with comma, I think. - Your answer is comma.
0:22:25 > 0:22:30- I'm really glad you did that, it's right.- Excellent.
0:22:30 > 0:22:34The one bit of knowledge you had, it was very important
0:22:34 > 0:22:37you didn't overrule it. Well done.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Eggheads, which comic-book hero made
0:22:39 > 0:22:44his first appearance in issue 15 of Amazing Fantasy in 1962?
0:22:48 > 0:22:52- Spider-Man.- Yep. Yeah, the other two are much earlier.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54It's Spider-Man.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Spider-Man is the correct answer, Eggheads, well done.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00A point to you. Second question.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Keep the tension.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04Here we go.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07What is the common name for the medical condition
0:23:07 > 0:23:10adhesive capsulitis?
0:23:23 > 0:23:26Adhesive suggests being stuck, doesn't it?
0:23:26 > 0:23:29That would point towards frozen shoulder.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31Yeah, capsule,
0:23:31 > 0:23:33kind of... I don't know.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37It might be something to do with the shoulder joint.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39I think that's a hinge joint.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41Ingrowning toenails...
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Or ball and socket joint. Which could be a capsule. I suppose.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47Ingrowing toenail, I don't think.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49No. I wouldn't have thought so.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52I think maybe frozen shoulder. I don't know.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Yeah, let's plump for frozen shoulder.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57We seemed to be erring towards that at the start.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59We'll go for frozen shoulder, I think.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01On the basis that it's a ball and socket joint.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04And frozen, an adhesive link, I think.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06You're right.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09You're right.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13Eggheads. Can you sense them getting nervous, this lot?
0:24:13 > 0:24:16- I don't think they feel nerves. - Oh, they are.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20There's a pool of sweat under the table, only I can see it.
0:24:20 > 0:24:26What term is used to refer to the metals, colours and furs
0:24:26 > 0:24:27used in heraldry?
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Tinctures. They are tinctures, Jeremy.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40They are tinctures, you are right.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43It always upsetting when, before I've said the options,
0:24:43 > 0:24:46somebody said the words tinctures under their breath over there.
0:24:46 > 0:24:50- I hate that look of recognition and knowledge.- But they can go blank.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53I've seen it happen. Keep the faith.
0:24:53 > 0:24:57Your third question. Who piloted the first powered flight
0:24:57 > 0:24:59in an aeroplane in the UK?
0:25:12 > 0:25:15- Do you recognise any of them? - No, I do not.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Brilliant! Neither do I.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21The only thing I can think, Charles Rolls, that might be something to do
0:25:21 > 0:25:24- with Rolls-Royce, unless it was an engine created that way.- Yep.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27- That's the only thing I can think of. - Samuel Cody...
0:25:27 > 0:25:30That's kind of familiar, I don't know why. For some reason.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34- They could all kind of be familiar. - In the deepest depths of my brain,
0:25:34 > 0:25:36I might have heard of one or two of them.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Shall we use Chris's famous
0:25:40 > 0:25:43- "If we don't know, we'll plump for the middle one?"- Yeah.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46- Does that work?- Did it work?
0:25:46 > 0:25:49It did not work. It didn't work last time, so it must work now.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52OK. All right then.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54- Shall we do it?- Yeah, let's.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56- Just plump for the middle.- Yeah, OK.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58OK, we'll plump for the middle.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Charles Rolls.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03I'm sorry, it didn't work.
0:26:03 > 0:26:04It was Samuel Cody.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08- OK.- I was listening to the logic about the Rolls,
0:26:08 > 0:26:13you know, aircraft, engine. Right lines there.
0:26:13 > 0:26:14Absolutely.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18Rolls was a pioneer. He was an aviation pioneer.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21And he was killed in a flying accident only two years after
0:26:21 > 0:26:24Cody made the first powered flight.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26So it's a very good one to go for.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29But it was Samuel Cody - actually an American,
0:26:29 > 0:26:32- but resident here at the time. - George Cayley was a 19th century
0:26:32 > 0:26:37pioneer of gliders, and on one of his early experiments he took the
0:26:37 > 0:26:41sensible precaution of sending his foot man up in the glider to test
0:26:41 > 0:26:46it out, who immediately resigned the moment he landed back on the ground.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50OK, Eggheads, your question now. If you get this right,
0:26:50 > 0:26:54you have snatched the money from our brilliant Townsend Saints.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57But you may not get it right. Here is the question.
0:26:57 > 0:27:04Between 1790 and 1806, the Frenchman Joseph-Marie Jacquard developed
0:27:04 > 0:27:07a device that was a refinement of which item of technology?
0:27:10 > 0:27:12Loom.
0:27:12 > 0:27:16Between 1790 and 1806, the Frenchman Joseph-Marie Jacquard developed
0:27:16 > 0:27:21a device that was a refinement of which item of technology?
0:27:21 > 0:27:25He developed a system that was for the automatic operation of looms
0:27:25 > 0:27:27in textile manufacture.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29And it's sometimes cited as being
0:27:29 > 0:27:35one of the first steps on the eventual road to computerisation.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37It worked by punch cards.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39So loom is the answer.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43Loom is indeed the answer, Eggheads.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45You got it right. Congratulations.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47You've won.
0:27:51 > 0:27:56The way they throw in the punch card fact is almost insulting.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Challengers, I'm sorry.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00You fought very bravely there.
0:28:00 > 0:28:01Commiserations to you.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04The Eggheads have done what comes naturally and
0:28:04 > 0:28:07their winning streak continues. They're having a good one.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £12,000.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12That money then rolls over to our next show.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Eggheads, congratulations. Who will ever beat you?
0:28:15 > 0:28:21Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains to beat the Eggheads.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23£13,000 says they don't.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25Until then, goodbye.
