0:00:04 > 0:00:08These 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.

0:00:16 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:24 > 0:00:28Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:28 > 0:00:32pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:32 > 0:00:36You might recognise them, as they have won some of the country's toughest quiz shows.

0:00:36 > 0:00:40They are the Eggheads. And, taking on the might of our quiz champions

0:00:40 > 0:00:43today are David vs Goliaths.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46The team all met through the Pilsdon Community,

0:00:46 > 0:00:48a charitable Christian organisation

0:00:48 > 0:00:51which celebrated its 50th anniversary last year.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53- Let's meet them.- Hi. I'm Jonathan.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57I'm 47, a vicar and leader of the Pilsdon Community.

0:00:57 > 0:00:58Hello. I'm Adam.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01I'm 43 years old and I'm a priest.

0:01:01 > 0:01:05Hello. I'm Rob, I'm 49 and a I'm community member.

0:01:05 > 0:01:10Hello. I'm Bob, I'm 55 years old and a retired potato merchant.

0:01:10 > 0:01:14Hello. I'm Trevor, I'm 66 and I'm a painter.

0:01:14 > 0:01:19Welcome to you. I can see the team name and the analogy.

0:01:19 > 0:01:23- You hope to be David, bringing down these quiz Goliaths.- We do.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25Do you quiz at all in the community?

0:01:25 > 0:01:27Have you practised before coming here?

0:01:27 > 0:01:30We have one quiz...

0:01:30 > 0:01:33- At Christmas.- I thought you were going to say one a week.

0:01:33 > 0:01:36So, once a year!

0:01:36 > 0:01:39Trevor organisers that and often asks the same questions.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43Some of the same questions - which we often get wrong.

0:01:43 > 0:01:44Because you've forgotten!

0:01:44 > 0:01:48Well, let's see how you do. Best of luck, David vs Goliaths.

0:01:48 > 0:01:51Let me tell you what's been happening.

0:01:51 > 0:01:55Every day there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:01:57 > 0:01:59the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02So the Eggheads have won the last three games,

0:02:02 > 0:02:06which means £4,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of...

0:02:09 > 0:02:13Any one of you can play this. It's the opening round.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15Who would you like to pick?

0:02:15 > 0:02:17Do you watch a lot of film and television?

0:02:17 > 0:02:21- No.- Right!

0:02:21 > 0:02:23Maybe a tricky subject.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26Will you take it on?

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Adam.

0:02:28 > 0:02:32- Which Egghead are we going to...? - Yes, choose an Egghead.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36You have the advantage of starting and picking any Egghead you like.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39- Go for Kevin. - OK.- We'll go for Kevin.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Let's have Adam and Kevin in the question room

0:02:41 > 0:02:44just to make sure you can't confer with your team-mates.

0:02:45 > 0:02:49You get to decide, Adam, whether you go first or second. What's it to be?

0:02:49 > 0:02:52I'd like to go first, please.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Good luck. This is your first question.

0:02:56 > 0:03:01What term is used in film editing for a transition effect

0:03:01 > 0:03:04in which one image fades out to be replaced by another?

0:03:09 > 0:03:11I don't know the answer to this.

0:03:11 > 0:03:18- So let's try dissolve.- Dissolve.

0:03:18 > 0:03:22Is the right answer. Well done.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24Well,

0:03:24 > 0:03:28if you don't get another one right, that will do with a cheer like that.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30OK. Good start.

0:03:30 > 0:03:34Kevin, in the TV sitcom The Office, which character expressed pride in

0:03:34 > 0:03:37his service in the Territorial Army?

0:03:38 > 0:03:41That's a good start, because I didn't watch The Office.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43- I haven't got a clue. - There's a gap in your knowledge.

0:03:43 > 0:03:47I'm afraid it is. I've got an idea - I may be getting them mixed up -

0:03:47 > 0:03:50that Gareth was the one played by Mackenzie Crook.

0:03:50 > 0:03:56He was the sort of office boy or something.

0:03:56 > 0:03:59I don't really know anything about Tim. Was that the Martin...?

0:04:01 > 0:04:04On the basis of the one I know absolutely nothing about,

0:04:04 > 0:04:06- I'll say Keith.- Keith.

0:04:06 > 0:04:07As you were floundering around,

0:04:07 > 0:04:11you did kind of get there with who was playing the characters.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14Yes, Martin Freeman Tim and Mackenzie Crook Gareth.

0:04:14 > 0:04:18- But it was Gareth who was in the TA.- OK.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21Not Keith. What a great start!

0:04:21 > 0:04:24Adam, you're in the lead. If you can hold on to it

0:04:24 > 0:04:28for a couple more questions, you're going into the final round.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31Second question - what was the name of the family who owned

0:04:31 > 0:04:38the house at 165 Eton Place in the 1970s TV drama series Upstairs, Downstairs?

0:04:42 > 0:04:44I'm afraid I've drawn a blank on this one.

0:04:44 > 0:04:49My early memories of it are of Gordon Jackson being the butler.

0:04:49 > 0:04:56I'm going to have to draw on a bit of divine assistance here.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58I will say...

0:05:00 > 0:05:03..Bellamy.

0:05:03 > 0:05:08That's rung a bell. It's the right answer. Bellamy.

0:05:10 > 0:05:14- Maybe just...- You may as well just give up now, Kevin!

0:05:14 > 0:05:18Well, the great deity is on your side.

0:05:18 > 0:05:23If you get this wrong, Kevin, you'll have lost your third

0:05:23 > 0:05:26Film And Television round in a row.

0:05:26 > 0:05:30Which British television show is based on a French format called

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Des Chiffres Et Des Lettres?

0:05:36 > 0:05:39Or numbers and letters - that's a bit of a clue.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41That was the original of Countdown.

0:05:41 > 0:05:46Pity you could translate that. It is the right answer.

0:05:46 > 0:05:51OK, well, may just have staved off defeat.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Adam, this could put you through to the final round.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Errol Flynn and which British actor shared

0:05:56 > 0:06:00a Californian bachelor pad that they nicknamed Cirrhosis-by-the-Sea?

0:06:03 > 0:06:08Oh. Stewart Granger was a sort of swashbuckling...

0:06:08 > 0:06:10And Errol Flynn was that sort of thing.

0:06:10 > 0:06:13I'm going to go for Stewart Granger.

0:06:13 > 0:06:17- So they were buckling their swashes together?- Something like that.

0:06:17 > 0:06:22Stewart Granger and Errol Flynn, no, it's not.

0:06:22 > 0:06:27It's David Niven. He and Errol Flynn shared that

0:06:27 > 0:06:29interestingly named pad.

0:06:29 > 0:06:34OK, a chance for Kevin to take us into Sudden Death.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37Kevin, in the 1956 film The Green Man,

0:06:37 > 0:06:40Alastair Sim played a watchmaker with which other part-time job?

0:06:44 > 0:06:46If I've got the right film,

0:06:46 > 0:06:50I think he doubled up, as you do, as an assassin.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Deadpan delivery as always, it's the right answer.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55Yes, assassin. Alastair Sim in The Green Man.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57So, it's all square.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00Two each after three questions means we go to Sudden Death, Adam.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02We're going to remove those choices

0:07:02 > 0:07:05you've worked pretty well up to this point. This is yours, Adam.

0:07:05 > 0:07:11Which 1981 Wolfgang Petersen film is set aboard a German submarine

0:07:11 > 0:07:13during the Second World War?

0:07:16 > 0:07:19I know the answer to this.

0:07:19 > 0:07:23Just trying to think of one or two war film titles.

0:07:24 > 0:07:28Um... I don't, I don't...

0:07:28 > 0:07:33I don't know. I'm going to hazard a guess at um...

0:07:33 > 0:07:36Ice Station Zebra?

0:07:36 > 0:07:39OK. Ice Station Zebra.

0:07:39 > 0:07:43I see, there's a submarine in that, isn't that, surfaces...

0:07:45 > 0:07:47..at the pole. But, it's not Ice Station Zebra.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51Do you know, Kevin, it could have been your question

0:07:51 > 0:07:54if Adam had put you in. Wolfgang Peterson?

0:07:54 > 0:07:57- It was called Das Boot. - Yes, or The Boat in English.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01So not there from Adam and a chance for Kevin.

0:08:01 > 0:08:05It could be a bit of a revival after his start there with The Office.

0:08:05 > 0:08:11Kevin, the 1999 film Any Given Sunday directed by Oliver Stone

0:08:11 > 0:08:14is set in the world of which professional sport?

0:08:14 > 0:08:17They generally play the games on Sunday, it's American football.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20It is the right answer, Kevin, you did turn it round.

0:08:20 > 0:08:24After an awful start, you've ended up the victor.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26American football there, Any Given Sunday.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29It means you'll be playing in the final round and bad luck,

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Adam, nearly made it, but not quite.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Would you both come back and join your teams.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39Well, as it stands David vs Goliaths have lost

0:08:39 > 0:08:40one brain, the Eggheads are all still there.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Let's play another round.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45This one's History, would that suit you better?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Adam can't play, but any of the other four.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52- Are you all right for history?- Yeah.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54Jonathan, OK, and which Egghead,

0:08:54 > 0:08:57- can't be Kevin, of course, any of the other four.- CJ.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59- Do you think?- Yes.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02All right, go on, then.

0:09:02 > 0:09:06- CJ.- OK, it's going to be Jonathan and CJ

0:09:06 > 0:09:08heading for the question room to play History.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12So, Jonathan, tell me a bit about the community,

0:09:12 > 0:09:15are you as self-sufficient as you can possibly be?

0:09:15 > 0:09:20We are, we've got three lovely Jersey cows,

0:09:20 > 0:09:21so we're self-sufficient in milk.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24A lot of our meat, a lot of our own vegetables.

0:09:24 > 0:09:28One of the things is, we're trying to get self-sufficient in energy

0:09:28 > 0:09:33by converting from oil and gas to burning wood.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35We hope to become almost carbon neutral.

0:09:35 > 0:09:40It must be hard work on the farm raising all those cattle

0:09:40 > 0:09:41and looking after the food.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43I can see why Adam didn't get to see much telly.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46Yes, we work long days, but it's a great life.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Yes, it's a lovely place, Pilsdon.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51OK, well, I hope you get to read

0:09:51 > 0:09:53a few history books while you're there.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56That's the category you're playing. Do you want to go first or second?

0:09:56 > 0:09:59Well, when we play cricket we always bat first.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02We think that's the confident thing to try and do.

0:10:02 > 0:10:06We've only ever won one of our last 50 cricket games

0:10:06 > 0:10:08and I hope this quiz is better.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Here's the first ball, Jonathan.

0:10:14 > 0:10:20Which term refers to British history between the years 1901 and 1910?

0:10:22 > 0:10:24That's Edwardian.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26I'm quite sure about that, yes.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28Yes, it's the right answer, well done.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34CJ, the ancient pyramidal temple

0:10:34 > 0:10:38called ziggurats were built in which region of the world?

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Not Muscovy because that's...

0:10:46 > 0:10:51..sort of where Moscow is, western Russia.

0:10:51 > 0:10:56Manchuria is China and I don't associate them with that area.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00I do associate them around the area of Mesopotamia.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02It's the right answer, well done.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04One to you CJ and Jonathan.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Which English city was seized by the followers

0:11:06 > 0:11:11of Robert Ketts rebellion in 1549?

0:11:15 > 0:11:18I think that was the Pilgrimage of Grace,

0:11:18 > 0:11:19I think it was called.

0:11:19 > 0:11:24A great number of people were executed after that.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28I'm guessing it was somewhere in the north.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31So, I'm thinking Chester.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33OK, Chester.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35It's the east, it's Norwich.

0:11:35 > 0:11:39Norwich for Robert Kett and the rebellion there.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41So a chance for CJ to take the lead.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44CJ, Queen Victoria's eldest child,

0:11:44 > 0:11:47also called Victoria, went on to hold which title?

0:11:52 > 0:11:54It's interesting, I've not heard this.

0:11:54 > 0:11:58There were obviously very clear links between Victoria

0:11:58 > 0:12:02and the German nobility.

0:12:02 > 0:12:05I think all of Victoria's older children all spoke German

0:12:05 > 0:12:10as their first language, I think, because Victoria only spoke

0:12:10 > 0:12:12German with her children.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14It could be a Russian tsarina, I suppose,

0:12:14 > 0:12:18but simply because of all the familiar and linguistic links,

0:12:18 > 0:12:20I'll have to go for German empress.

0:12:20 > 0:12:24German empress for Victoria, daughter of Queen Victoria,

0:12:24 > 0:12:26it's the right answer, yes, well done.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30So you have the lead and you need to get this, Jonathan.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33The French prince who landed in England and claimed

0:12:33 > 0:12:38the English throne in 1216 later became which King of France?

0:12:43 > 0:12:45I don't it's Charles X.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48I think that's too early.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53I don't think it's Henry IV.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55I'm going for Louis VIII.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58You've got it, well done, Louis VIII.

0:12:58 > 0:13:03Still in it, hoping for a mistake from CJ then.

0:13:03 > 0:13:08CJ, which Byzantine empress, the daughter of Constantine VIII

0:13:08 > 0:13:12shared the throne with her sister, Theodora in the 11th Century?

0:13:16 > 0:13:1911th Century, um... Is that right for Lydia?

0:13:22 > 0:13:24There's something mind nagging me about Zoe,

0:13:24 > 0:13:27but I can't place her and I know there was a ruler called Lydia.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29- I'll try Lydia.- Lydia.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Lydia and Theodora.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33- Other Eggheads, is it? - I think it's Zoe.

0:13:33 > 0:13:37It's Zoe. Zoe not Lydia, so there we are, the mistake

0:13:37 > 0:13:39you wanted, Jonathan has occurred.

0:13:39 > 0:13:40It's still all square.

0:13:40 > 0:13:44Two-all and again we go to Sudden Death.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Against which nation's fleet did Admiral Howe

0:13:46 > 0:13:51win a naval victory in 1794?

0:13:51 > 0:13:54It became known as the Glorious First of June.

0:13:54 > 0:13:561794...

0:13:57 > 0:14:01The French were defeated in 1805.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06I'm going to guess at the Dutch.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08OK, the Dutch...

0:14:08 > 0:14:12It is the more obvious French.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15It is France. Admiral Howe against the French there

0:14:15 > 0:14:17on the Glorious First of June, 1794.

0:14:19 > 0:14:23And a chance for CJ then to win the round if he gets this.

0:14:23 > 0:14:28CJ, in which decade of the 20th century did Mao Zedong

0:14:28 > 0:14:31launch the five-year economic plan, known as The Great Leap Forward?

0:14:33 > 0:14:36Which one is it going to be? I think, is it the '50s?

0:14:38 > 0:14:40I think the Cultural Revolution was '66.

0:14:40 > 0:14:44Again, not sure and I should know this straightaway,

0:14:44 > 0:14:46but I'll say the 1950s.

0:14:46 > 0:14:481950s...

0:14:48 > 0:14:50It's 1958, it's the right answer.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53You are through to the final round.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56Bad luck, Jonathan. It seemed to slip away from you,

0:14:56 > 0:14:59I thought Adam would make it through and I thought the same for you

0:14:59 > 0:15:01but the Eggheads have come back.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03This Egghead has come back and booked his place

0:15:03 > 0:15:05in the final round at your expense.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08Would you both please come back and rejoin your teams.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11Well, two attempts knocking Eggheads out and getting very close,

0:15:11 > 0:15:15but not quite. It means you've lost two brains from the final round.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17The Eggheads are all still there.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20Our next subject comes up, this is Sport.

0:15:20 > 0:15:24We know about the successful cricket team. Who'd like to play?

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Who'd like to open on this one?

0:15:26 > 0:15:28Rob, Bob or Trevor?

0:15:28 > 0:15:31It'll have to be Rob.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33- I suppose I'll have to. - The answer's Rob.

0:15:33 > 0:15:37Well, who do you think might not be much good on the Egghead's team?

0:15:37 > 0:15:39CJ and Kevin have played. So going up there,

0:15:39 > 0:15:42it's Daphne, Chris or Barry?

0:15:42 > 0:15:45- Who are we thinking? Barry? OK. - Let's try Barry.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47- OK. Are you happy with that, Rob? - Yes.

0:15:47 > 0:15:53Let's have Rob and Barry into the question room, please.

0:15:53 > 0:15:57- Rob, do you want to go first or second?- I'll go first.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01OK, good luck, Rob and your first question is football.

0:16:01 > 0:16:07Who managed the England football team in the 1996 European Championship finals?

0:16:12 > 0:16:17It certainly wasn't Sven-Goran Eriksson because he's more recent.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21And I don't think it was Steve McClaren.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23Again, he was too recent.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26So, I think it must be Terry Venables.

0:16:26 > 0:16:30El-Tel himself. Right answer, well done.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36And, Barry, how long in feet is a netball court?

0:16:39 > 0:16:42I'm going to get in trouble for not knowing this.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44My wife used to teach netball many years ago.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Did she? Did you go and watch?

0:16:46 > 0:16:49I watched a couple of matches and then found

0:16:49 > 0:16:51it was too cold to watch any more!

0:16:51 > 0:16:54I'm going to go for the shorter answer. 100 feet.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56100. You've got it, well done.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59No trouble at home. Yet.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02- Give it time.- 1-all.

0:17:02 > 0:17:06Rob, which racecourse is located at Sunbury on Thames?

0:17:10 > 0:17:14Well, this is a subject which I know very little about.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17I've only been to one race course in my life.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20And I can't even remember the name of that one.

0:17:20 > 0:17:24So, it'll have to be a guess.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27I think I'll just have to go for Fontwell Park.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29OK, Fontwell Park in Sunbury-on-Thames?

0:17:29 > 0:17:33You'd be badly lost if you went to Sunbury-on-Thames

0:17:33 > 0:17:35looking for Fontwell Park.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38It's Kempton, Kempton Park. Not Fontwell Park.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39A chance for the lead, Barry.

0:17:39 > 0:17:43Which rugby union team won its first ever Heineken Cup

0:17:43 > 0:17:46after defeating Leicester in the 2009 final?

0:17:49 > 0:17:52I'm sure Harlequins have won that in the past.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55I don't believe Edinburgh has won it, so I'll go for Leinster.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57Leinster, it's the right answer.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59Yes, Leinster. They beat Leicester at

0:17:59 > 0:18:04the Heineken Cup final in 2009 which means you need to get this, Rob.

0:18:04 > 0:18:08In which year did David Gower last play Test match cricket for England?

0:18:14 > 0:18:16Well, cricket is one of the sports that

0:18:16 > 0:18:18I take some interest in, certainly.

0:18:18 > 0:18:23So, I think I'll go for '89.

0:18:23 > 0:18:27'89. David Gower last played Test match cricket for England in...

0:18:27 > 0:18:301992.

0:18:30 > 0:18:31'92, Rob.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34So, it means Barry is through to the final,

0:18:34 > 0:18:37he's already got two, a score you can't achieve.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40Barry, you're playing in the final round.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43Would you both please come back and join your teams.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46You guys know it took a while for David

0:18:46 > 0:18:49to topple Goliath. So, still time.

0:18:49 > 0:18:53As it stands, you've lost three brains from the final round.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55The Eggheads haven't lost any.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59Last chance to knock an Egghead out is on this subject, it's Geography.

0:18:59 > 0:19:03And two players eligible. Bob or Trevor.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06- What do you think, Trevor?- You. - I think you.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09- Yes, Bob, I think. - Bob.- Yes, he'll be fine.

0:19:09 > 0:19:14OK, Bob and the remaining Eggheads are Chris and Daphne.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17- Daphne, probably. - Chris is probably a bit

0:19:17 > 0:19:19handy at Geography, I don't know.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21- Yes.- Daphne is as well.

0:19:21 > 0:19:24Daphne probably is as well, but we'll go for...

0:19:24 > 0:19:28Go for Daphne? OK, Bob and Daphne, into the question room, please.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Bob it's Geography and I believe

0:19:32 > 0:19:36you've had some pretty trepid adventures on your bike?

0:19:36 > 0:19:42Yes, two years ago, I cycled from England up to North Cape

0:19:42 > 0:19:44in north Norway, going via Switzerland.

0:19:44 > 0:19:48And it was a four-month trip doing 6,000 miles.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52- It was really good. - Fantastic story.

0:19:52 > 0:19:56I hope some of these Nordic adventures come up in these questions

0:19:56 > 0:19:58in the Geography round. Which set would you like?

0:19:58 > 0:20:00The first set or second?

0:20:00 > 0:20:02I'll carry on going first please.

0:20:04 > 0:20:05OK, Good luck, Bob.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08Which estuary is formed by the confluence

0:20:08 > 0:20:11of the rivers Trent and Ouse?

0:20:14 > 0:20:18I think flowing out through York out towards the sea,

0:20:18 > 0:20:22the river Ouse goes out into the Humber estuary.

0:20:22 > 0:20:23- Humber?- Yes.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Right answer, yes, Humber.

0:20:28 > 0:20:29The Trent and the Ouse.

0:20:29 > 0:20:30And to balance it up,

0:20:30 > 0:20:33another watery question for Daphne.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37Avonmouth is a port of which English city?

0:20:40 > 0:20:4320-odd miles away from me. Bristol.

0:20:43 > 0:20:47- Ah.- Yes.- Not too hard then?- No.

0:20:47 > 0:20:48Is the right answer, yes. Bristol.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53And second question, Bob,

0:20:53 > 0:20:56where was the official international customs airport

0:20:56 > 0:20:59for London opened in 1920?

0:21:04 > 0:21:06I know that Croydon has a...

0:21:08 > 0:21:10..connection with aviation.

0:21:10 > 0:21:16So I think I'm going to take that as a likely option. I'll say Croydon.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18Croydon. Well done, right answer.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24The surface of the Dead Sea

0:21:24 > 0:21:26averages roughly how many metres below sea level?

0:21:30 > 0:21:32I have no idea, Dermot. 40.

0:21:32 > 0:21:3440 metres below sea level?

0:21:34 > 0:21:37- Yes. Wrong.- It is wrong.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39- 400.- Oh, right. OK!

0:21:39 > 0:21:42That's the surface of the Dead Sea, averages roughly 400 metres.

0:21:42 > 0:21:43I didn't know that.

0:21:43 > 0:21:48That far below level. There we are, 400 it is.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50So, well, great news, Bob.

0:21:50 > 0:21:54That slip up, this gets you through to the final round and you'll be

0:21:54 > 0:21:57keeping Trevor company. If you don't get through he's on his own.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00This is your question.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03The City of Helena, with a population of roughly 25,000,

0:22:03 > 0:22:06is the capital of which US state?

0:22:11 > 0:22:15I don't think it's Wisconsin.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17I'm not sure that it's Rhode Island.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19On the basis that it ends in an "A"

0:22:19 > 0:22:22and Montana ends in an "A", I'll go for Montana.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28Well there's logic for you! Do you know what?

0:22:28 > 0:22:29It's the right answer!

0:22:31 > 0:22:33Daphne knew, Daphne knew her fate was sealed.

0:22:33 > 0:22:39OK. Well, last question there in those head-to-heads,

0:22:39 > 0:22:43Bob, has got you through. No place for you, Daphne.

0:22:43 > 0:22:47Would you both please come back and join your teams.

0:22:47 > 0:22:48This is what we've been playing for.

0:22:48 > 0:22:51It's time for the final round which is General Knowledge.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54But those of you who lost those head-to-heads won't be

0:22:54 > 0:22:56allowed to take part in this round.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59So, Jonathan, Adam and Rob from David vs Goliaths

0:22:59 > 0:23:03and Daphne from the Eggheads, would you leave the studio now, please?

0:23:05 > 0:23:09Bob and Trevor, you're playing to win David vs Goliath £4,000.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12Kevin, CJ, Chris and Barry, you're playing for something which

0:23:12 > 0:23:15money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18I'll ask each team three questions, but this time

0:23:18 > 0:23:22the questions are all general knowledge and you are allowed to confer.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24So, David vs Goliaths, the question is

0:23:24 > 0:23:26are your two brains better than the Eggheads'?

0:23:26 > 0:23:30And Bob and Trevor, would you like to go first or second?

0:23:30 > 0:23:32We'll go first, please.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37OK, good luck.

0:23:37 > 0:23:39Anything may come up, try this one.

0:23:39 > 0:23:44Your first question. In law, which two word Latin name is given

0:23:44 > 0:23:48to a writ directed to someone who has custody of a person requiring

0:23:48 > 0:23:53that the detained person be brought before the court issuing the writ?

0:23:59 > 0:24:01It's to do with a body.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03It's Corpus, isn't it? Habeas Corpus.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05I think it is.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07- We think it's Habeas Corpus.- OK.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09It's the right answer, well done.

0:24:11 > 0:24:15Eggheads, club masters, Wayfarers and aviators

0:24:15 > 0:24:18are all styles of which type of fashion accessory?

0:24:21 > 0:24:24Sunglasses? Well, I wouldn't know,

0:24:24 > 0:24:26but our fashion correspondent's here

0:24:26 > 0:24:29and assures me they're sunglasses.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31That will be Kevin.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34OK, it is sunglasses. Right answer, Eggheads.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36Second question,

0:24:37 > 0:24:43in April 2008, the Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero

0:24:43 > 0:24:47announced that, for the first time, there was a majority of what in his Cabinet?

0:24:51 > 0:24:56It could be any of those, really, couldn't it? But...

0:24:56 > 0:24:58Basically, the Catalan thing was

0:24:58 > 0:25:01already dealt with elsewhere, wasn't it?

0:25:01 > 0:25:05- I think it was the women. The number of women.- The number of women?

0:25:05 > 0:25:07We'll go for the number of women.

0:25:07 > 0:25:10The female representation in his Cabinet

0:25:10 > 0:25:12reached a majority in April 2008, you think?

0:25:12 > 0:25:14You're right, well done.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Eggheads, the famous American street called Wilshire Boulevard,

0:25:19 > 0:25:23named after a 19th century publisher and developer,

0:25:23 > 0:25:26starts in the centre of which city?

0:25:28 > 0:25:30Hold on a second, spell Wiltshire, please.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32- W-I-L-S-H-I-R-E. - That's the Beverly Wilshire Hotel,

0:25:32 > 0:25:39- which is...- It's not Miami and Chicago doesn't have boulevards,

0:25:39 > 0:25:41it has avenues so it's Los Angeles.

0:25:41 > 0:25:44Los Angeles, is the right answer.

0:25:44 > 0:25:46Well done, Eggheads.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48Two each. Back to David vs Goliaths.

0:25:48 > 0:25:51In the Soviet Union, what was the name

0:25:51 > 0:25:54of the Communist League Of Youth?

0:25:58 > 0:26:01The only one I'm familiar with is Izvestiya.

0:26:03 > 0:26:07But I'm not sure whether it's in connection with...

0:26:09 > 0:26:13- The NKVD's the secret mob, isn't it?- Right.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16So I would tend towards the one with a K.

0:26:16 > 0:26:21- The Komsomol. - We'll go for Konsomol.- OK.

0:26:21 > 0:26:26Yes, Konsomol is correct, well done.

0:26:26 > 0:26:27Eggheads, you must get this.

0:26:27 > 0:26:31In Medieval society what was a palmer?

0:26:33 > 0:26:36- Spell it, please.- P-A-L-M-E-R.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39Palmer.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41- Pilgrim?- Are we agreed?- Yes.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43They used to wear a little bit of palm leaf

0:26:43 > 0:26:45as a badge to prove that they'd been

0:26:45 > 0:26:48- where they were supposed to and they're pilgrims.- Pilgrim...

0:26:48 > 0:26:50is correct, well done.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53Right, Sudden Death then. All square.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57Both sides going really well. 3-all after three questions each.

0:26:57 > 0:27:01So, David vs Goliaths, who created the dashing literary

0:27:01 > 0:27:06hero, Young Lochinvar in the epic poem, Marmion?

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Tennyson?

0:27:09 > 0:27:12- I wouldn't have thought so. - Tennyson?

0:27:14 > 0:27:17- Longfellow?- Byron?

0:27:17 > 0:27:23- No.- Tennyson? - Would you like to go for it?

0:27:23 > 0:27:25I would, yes.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30Right, we'll say...

0:27:30 > 0:27:31Tennyson.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33Tennyson. OK.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35It's not. No, not Tennyson.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39Alfred Lord Tennyson. Do you know, Eggheads, if it was your question?

0:27:39 > 0:27:41- Sir Walter Scott.- Sir Walter Scott.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43So...

0:27:43 > 0:27:44A chance for the Eggheads.

0:27:44 > 0:27:46First slip up in the final round.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49It continues if the Eggheads don't get this.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51Eggheads, which American actor married the actress

0:27:51 > 0:27:54Victoria Tennant in 1986?

0:27:54 > 0:27:55Steve Martin?

0:27:55 > 0:27:57It's Steve Martin, yes.

0:27:57 > 0:27:58The name that first came to my mind.

0:27:58 > 0:28:01- Yes, Steve Martin.- Yes, right.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03It's Steve Martin, Dermot.

0:28:03 > 0:28:07Steve Martin is correct, Eggheads. You've won.

0:28:11 > 0:28:16Well, David vs Goliaths, it finishes the other way.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18Thank you very much indeed for playing

0:28:18 > 0:28:21and playing so well today. It's good to see you

0:28:21 > 0:28:24and best of luck with the community in Pilsdon for the future.

0:28:24 > 0:28:28- Thank you.- The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them

0:28:28 > 0:28:30and they still reign supreme over quiz land.

0:28:30 > 0:28:33You won't be going home the £4,000 which means the money

0:28:33 > 0:28:35rolls over to the next show.

0:28:35 > 0:28:39Eggheads, congratulations, who will beat you?

0:28:39 > 0:28:41Join us again to see if a new team have the brains

0:28:41 > 0:28:42to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:42 > 0:28:44£5,000 says they don't.

0:28:44 > 0:28:46Until then, goodbye.
