0:00:03 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:09 > 0:00:15Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

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

0:00:22 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:26 > 0:00:29attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:29 > 0:00:35They have won some of the country's toughest quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38And challenging our resident quiz champions today

0:00:38 > 0:00:42are The Berlin 5. This team have known one another

0:00:42 > 0:00:44since their days at secondary school

0:00:44 > 0:00:50and take their name from a legendary holiday to the German capital two years ago. Let's meet them.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53Hi, I'm Paul, I'm 24 and I'm a physiotherapy student.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Hi, I'm Dan, I'm 24 and I'm a civil servant.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Dave, I'm 24 and I'm a pushback driver.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03I'm Thomas, I'm 24 and I'm a recruitment consultant.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Hi, I'm Chris, I'm 24 and I'm an optician.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08- So, Paul and team, welcome.- Hello.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12And Berlin two years ago, dare I ask what happened?

0:01:12 > 0:01:17It's best if you don't. That's part of the legendary thing about it.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20- How many of you went out on this trip?- Five of us.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22And how many came back?

0:01:22 > 0:01:25- About four and a half! - Four and a half?!- Yeah.

0:01:25 > 0:01:29And are you allowed back to Berlin or indeed Germany?

0:01:29 > 0:01:34We haven't actually tested that yet, but hopefully.

0:01:34 > 0:01:38- You quiz together?- We do indeed. - Are you serious quizzers?

0:01:38 > 0:01:44- As serious as you can call us by looking at us.- So who's the captain in the quizzes? How does it work?

0:01:44 > 0:01:48I'm the team captain pretty much by default, rather than skill.

0:01:48 > 0:01:53He's the best at organising things, so we just leave it all up to him.

0:01:53 > 0:01:59Berlin 5, let's see if you get over the wall today. Every day, £1,000 is up for grabs for our challengers.

0:01:59 > 0:02:04However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07The Eggheads have won the last 11 games,

0:02:07 > 0:02:10so that means £12,000 is at stake today.

0:02:10 > 0:02:14- That'd get you back to Berlin. - Yeah, it would.

0:02:14 > 0:02:19Not that you should be doing that! The first head-to-head battle is on Sport.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21Which one wants this?

0:02:21 > 0:02:26- I think you're up, Paul. - We've discussed this before and it's generally my category.

0:02:26 > 0:02:31OK, Paul. And which Egghead looks as if they would flounder on Sport?

0:02:31 > 0:02:33- Who do you think?- Judith?- Yeah.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36- We'll go for Judith. - You're so original!

0:02:36 > 0:02:41There's this regal sort of dismissal by Judith, but you've got to play.

0:02:41 > 0:02:45From the Eggheads versus Paul from The Berlin 5 on Sport.

0:02:45 > 0:02:50To ensure there's no conferring, take your positions in the question room.

0:02:50 > 0:02:56OK, so you're on Sport. Multiple choice questions and you can choose the first or second set, Paul.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59I'll try and set a good precedent and go first.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03Good luck to you.

0:03:03 > 0:03:07Lord's cricket ground is in which part of London?

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Well, this is a bit of a bad one for me.

0:03:12 > 0:03:16I'm good on sport, but cricket is not one of my best subjects.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21I don't think it's Earls Court.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27St John's Wood and Tooting, it's flipping a coin for me, really,

0:03:27 > 0:03:30to pick between them because I just don't know.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37For some reason, St John's Wood jumps out at me a bit more,

0:03:37 > 0:03:39so I think I'll go for that.

0:03:39 > 0:03:43St John's Wood is the right answer. Well done.

0:03:43 > 0:03:48Judith, you nearly had the advantage on the first question.

0:03:48 > 0:03:53- You were longing for that. - I was praying. - It's not going to be that easy.

0:03:53 > 0:03:59The 2005 Grand National, Judith, was delayed by 25 minutes to accommodate which event?

0:04:03 > 0:04:06Well, the Papal visit was in 2010.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09Not the Live Aid concert. 8, I mean.

0:04:09 > 0:04:12Prince Charles's wedding.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Prince Charles's wedding is correct. To Camilla.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Back to you, Paul.

0:04:17 > 0:04:22For over ten years, Don Revie was manager of which football club?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29I think I know this one.

0:04:30 > 0:04:35I remember he had many arguments with Brian Clough at the time

0:04:35 > 0:04:38when Brian Clough managed Nottingham Forest.

0:04:38 > 0:04:43And I think Don Revie was manager of Leeds United.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46- Absolutely. Have you seen that brilliant film?- Yeah.

0:04:46 > 0:04:50- The Damned?- The Damned United.- It's fantastic. Leeds United is correct.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52Judith, at which Olympics

0:04:52 > 0:04:57was Linford Christie disqualified after two false starts in the 100 metres final?

0:05:02 > 0:05:05I think Atlanta is too far back.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08Linford Christie...

0:05:10 > 0:05:12I think it might be Seoul.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16Seoul is your answer. Is she right? Anyone here know?

0:05:16 > 0:05:20- I think it's Atlanta. - Atlanta is the answer, Judith.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22So you've fallen behind.

0:05:22 > 0:05:26We go back to Paul. If you get this one right, you're in the final.

0:05:26 > 0:05:30How many Formula One Grand Prix races did Nigel Mansell win?

0:05:35 > 0:05:38This is a bit of a toss-up, really, for me.

0:05:38 > 0:05:42I'm not too sure. I'm not a big Formula One fan.

0:05:42 > 0:05:46But I know Nigel Mansell was a bit of a legend. He did pretty well.

0:05:46 > 0:05:50I think the rule of thumb is to punt down the middle.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52I think I'll go for 41.

0:05:52 > 0:05:5641 is incorrect. 31 is the right answer.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Judith, your question.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01If you get this wrong, you'll be out.

0:06:01 > 0:06:05Luc Alphand, who won the 2006 Dakar Rally,

0:06:05 > 0:06:08was previously a champion in which sport?

0:06:11 > 0:06:14Well, this will have...

0:06:14 > 0:06:18I don't know, so I'll just try and think what is most likely.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22I imagine he would have to be quite young because of the endurance.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26If it was skiing, he probably would have just gone on doing that.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29I wouldn't associate swimming with a driver.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32I have a feeling it might be surfing

0:06:32 > 0:06:36This is where you should have deployed the Keppel technique.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39- No, not again. - You should have gone down the right.

0:06:39 > 0:06:43Skiing is the answer and you've been knocked out. There we go, Paul.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45- How about that?- I'm surprised.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47First blood to The Berlin 5.

0:06:47 > 0:06:54- Not a bad start.- Not a bad start at all. You will be in the final, Paul, and Judith will be in the sin bin.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57Do, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams.

0:06:58 > 0:07:04So the challengers have lost no brains from the final round whilst the Eggheads have lost one brain.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07The next subject is Film & TV.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Which of you would like this?

0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Film & Television, what do you think?- Who's it going to be?

0:07:12 > 0:07:15- Does anyone fancy it? - I don't fancy it at all.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18- I'll take it. - Dave, do you fancy it?- Yeah.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22- Dave, OK. Against which Egghead? It can't be Judith.- Who do you think?

0:07:22 > 0:07:27- I think we should try and eliminate Kevin earlier.- Is that possible?

0:07:28 > 0:07:32- Do you want Kevin? - Yeah, we'll go for that.

0:07:32 > 0:07:36He's got that inscrutable look. You can't tell what he's thinking.

0:07:36 > 0:07:43OK, so it's going to be Dave from The Berlin 5 against Kevin from the Eggheaded 5.

0:07:43 > 0:07:47To ensure no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51- So, Dave, Film & TV...- Yeah.

0:07:51 > 0:07:57- You described yourself as a pushback driver. Is that something to do with airports?- It is, yeah.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01When aircraft are ready to depart from their gates, they can't reverse

0:08:01 > 0:08:06so we have to push them back into a position where they can move under their own power.

0:08:06 > 0:08:11- If they start being able to reverse, that's bad news for you.- Definitely.

0:08:11 > 0:08:15- You've got to hope they don't invent the reverse gear.- Yeah, definitely.

0:08:15 > 0:08:21And Film & TV, I'm just thinking films which involve planes or airports, there are so many of them.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23There's Die Hard and United 93.

0:08:23 > 0:08:29That would be brilliant to get questions on any sort of aircraft films.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32OK, so you've got the basics to beat Kevin, I think.

0:08:32 > 0:08:36- Yeah.- If it goes the right way. Three questions, Film & TV.

0:08:36 > 0:08:42We're hoping for airports and aircraft and you can choose the first or second set of questions.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44I'll follow Paul and go first, please.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Here we go. Dave, good luck.

0:08:49 > 0:08:53Who played Pop Larkin in the TV series, The Darling Buds Of May?

0:09:00 > 0:09:03I've never seen the programme.

0:09:03 > 0:09:07But I know that David Jason was in it.

0:09:07 > 0:09:11So I'm going to take a punt and say David Jason.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14David Jason is quite right. Well done.

0:09:16 > 0:09:21Kevin, the Soup Dragon was a character in which children's TV programme?

0:09:24 > 0:09:28I don't think it appeared in either of the others. It's The Clangers.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31The Clangers is quite right.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Back to you, Dave.

0:09:33 > 0:09:37The 2005 film Jarhead was set during which conflict?

0:09:41 > 0:09:46I definitely know this. I've seen the film a couple of times.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49And it's definitely the Gulf War.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53The Gulf War is right. Kevin, your question.

0:09:53 > 0:09:58Who directed the 1970 film adaptation of E Nesbit's The Railway Children?

0:10:01 > 0:10:06It was a very good actor, of course, in his own right - Lionel Jeffries.

0:10:06 > 0:10:10Lionel Jeffries is the right answer. It's two each. Cracking on here.

0:10:10 > 0:10:15Dave, in which film did Glenn Ford play a gambler called Johnny Farrell?

0:10:23 > 0:10:26I really don't know.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28I haven't seen any of those films,

0:10:28 > 0:10:31so I'm going to take a guess at...

0:10:31 > 0:10:35I'm going to go down the left and say The Big Heat.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39No, that's wrong, I'm afraid. Anybody on this side?

0:10:39 > 0:10:41- Anyone at all?- Gilda.- Gilda.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43Gilda is the right answer.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45So, Kevin, with this,

0:10:45 > 0:10:47you can take the round.

0:10:47 > 0:10:53What was the name of the Coronation Street character played by Joanna Lumley in 1973?

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Well, bizarrely enough, I think I do know it.

0:11:01 > 0:11:05It's just one of those trivia facts that gets into the system.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07I think it's Elaine Perkins.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Barry is nodding.

0:11:10 > 0:11:15Chris is nodding. The correct answer is Elaine Perkins.

0:11:15 > 0:11:19Well done, Kevin. You are in the final round. Dave, sorry.

0:11:19 > 0:11:24One trip and it's fatal in this situation. So, bad luck, you're not in the final.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28Both of you come back and rejoin your team-mates.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31So, a bit of a knock there. Any change in tactics?

0:11:31 > 0:11:36- No, no. Dave did well, to be fair. - Yes, absolutely.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39You took on a very, very tough person to beat there.

0:11:39 > 0:11:44- Definitely.- Just to go in the booth with Kevin is in its own way brave.

0:11:44 > 0:11:49So the challengers and the Eggheads have both lost one brain.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51The next subject for you is Geography.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54I can't guarantee Berlin will come up.

0:11:54 > 0:12:00- If it does, we probably wouldn't know anything about it. - We don't remember any of it.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02Do you want to take Geography?

0:12:02 > 0:12:05- I'm no good at Geography. - I'm really bad at Geography.

0:12:05 > 0:12:09- I think between you, my choice is Chris.- I'd say Chris.

0:12:09 > 0:12:15Chris on Geography, OK. Against which Egghead? Not Judith or Kevin.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19- Chris and Chris?- Chris with Chris?

0:12:19 > 0:12:22- Yeah.- Yeah.- Chris versus Chris. - All right.

0:12:22 > 0:12:26So, from The Berlin 5, Chris, and from the Eggheads, the other Chris.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30Chris v Chris on Geography, please go to the question room now.

0:12:30 > 0:12:37- Chris, you are an optician?- That's correct.- You're testing people's eye and building their glasses?

0:12:37 > 0:12:41It's more building glasses and repairs, things like that.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44- Do you wear glasses yourself sometimes?- I do.

0:12:44 > 0:12:49I'm wearing contact lenses now. I'm down to shapes and colours without them.

0:12:49 > 0:12:53What's your subject in the quizzing when you quiz with your friends?

0:12:53 > 0:12:59- My subject would be more Music. - Geography, you seem to have drawn a blank on?- It's not a strong point.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Let's see how we go. Three questions.

0:13:02 > 0:13:06- You can choose the first or the second set.- I'll take the first.

0:13:09 > 0:13:13Good luck. What is the county town of Hampshire?

0:13:17 > 0:13:23OK. I'm going to have to say I'm not entirely sure.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28I'm trying to think it through.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31I'm going to have to say Winchester.

0:13:31 > 0:13:36Nicely done. It is Winchester. You would've known that, Kevin.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39- Possibly, yeah. - Because you live there.

0:13:39 > 0:13:44Chris, other Chris... Chris H, shall we say?

0:13:44 > 0:13:50What type of building in Liverpool is popularly known as Paddy's Wigwam due to its distinctive architecture?

0:13:54 > 0:13:58If you want a cathedral, we've got one at each end of Hope Street

0:13:58 > 0:14:01and Paddy's Wigwam is the Catholic cathedral.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03Cathedral is the right answer.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Chris, your question.

0:14:05 > 0:14:11What is the name of the north-south road across Australia which connects Darwin and Adelaide?

0:14:15 > 0:14:19I've never been to Australia. It's a place I would very much like to go

0:14:19 > 0:14:22I've been looking into it recently.

0:14:22 > 0:14:28And again I'm not entirely certain, but...

0:14:28 > 0:14:32I'm trying to think which one I can get out.

0:14:34 > 0:14:38I'm going to have to go with Albert Highway.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40Anyone been to Australia?

0:14:40 > 0:14:44- Any offers on this?- I should know it because I've driven on it!

0:14:44 > 0:14:47I think it's Albert Highway.

0:14:47 > 0:14:52It was obviously part of your Berlin weekend. It's the Stuart Highway.

0:14:52 > 0:14:56Stuart Highway is the answer. So, Chris, back to you.

0:14:56 > 0:15:02You can take the lead. The city of Kampala lies close to which major lake?

0:15:06 > 0:15:08Well, that's in Uganda, isn't it?

0:15:08 > 0:15:13Lake Malawi's too far south. I don't know Lake Turkana.

0:15:13 > 0:15:19But Kampala is, if not actually on, near Lake Victoria.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23Lake Victoria is the right answer. You need to get this right, Chris.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26- OK.- Here's your question.

0:15:26 > 0:15:31Guadalupe Peak is the highest point in which US state?

0:15:35 > 0:15:39Again I'm trying to think which I can nominate out.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41And...

0:15:42 > 0:15:45I didn't think it was California.

0:15:46 > 0:15:49I'm going to say Texas.

0:15:49 > 0:15:55Nicely done. Texas is correct. Chris, get this and you've won.

0:15:55 > 0:16:00Which country's main airport is situated on Hulhule Island?

0:16:04 > 0:16:07Well, it's not the Bahamas.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10I don't think it's the Seychelles.

0:16:10 > 0:16:18It sounds more sort of Bali Hai way than the Seychelles, so I'll go with the Maldives.

0:16:19 > 0:16:24I'm afraid, from your point of view, he is right.

0:16:24 > 0:16:28It is the Maldives. That means you're in the final.

0:16:28 > 0:16:32Both of you please come back and rejoin your teams.

0:16:32 > 0:16:40So the challengers have lost two brains from the final round whilst the Eggheads have lost one.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43The last subject before the final is Politics. Good or bad?

0:16:43 > 0:16:48- This is Dan.- The civil servant. OK. Against which Egghead, Dan?

0:16:48 > 0:16:51It's Pat or Barry.

0:16:51 > 0:16:55- Em...- Pat or Barry? - It's a bit of a toss-up, really.

0:16:55 > 0:16:59- Go for Pat.- Pat, yeah.

0:16:59 > 0:17:04Dan from the Berlin Five versus Pat from the Eggheads. Smiling, worryingly!

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Please go to the Question Room.

0:17:07 > 0:17:11- Dan, we've got you down as a civil servant.- That's correct.

0:17:11 > 0:17:18- Working in what line? - In the Job Centre, mainly. - From Ireland?- Yeah, from Cork.

0:17:18 > 0:17:24I know you like your history and your politics and were hoping this round came up.

0:17:24 > 0:17:29Yeah, I was, but I might regret that now.

0:17:29 > 0:17:33Let's see how we go. Good luck. Three questions in turn.

0:17:33 > 0:17:37- Dan, choose the first or second set. - First.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41All the best to you, Dan.

0:17:41 > 0:17:48Who did Margaret Thatcher succeed as leader of the Conservative Party in 1975?

0:17:51 > 0:17:54OK, I know this.

0:17:55 > 0:17:59It's definitely Edward Heath.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01It definitely is. Well done.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Pat, over to you.

0:18:03 > 0:18:09What is the surname of the twin sisters Angela and Maria, elected to the Shadow Cabinet in 2010?

0:18:15 > 0:18:19I think they're from somewhere in the Merseyside, Wirral area

0:18:19 > 0:18:22and they are the Eagle sisters.

0:18:22 > 0:18:27They are indeed. Angela and Maria Eagle. Labour MPs.

0:18:27 > 0:18:33Over to you, Dan. The Orange Revolution is a name give to political events that took place

0:18:33 > 0:18:36in which former Soviet republic?

0:18:40 > 0:18:42OK, I'm not too sure on this one.

0:18:43 > 0:18:47I don't think it's the first one.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50I think it's the Ukraine. Go for the middle.

0:18:50 > 0:18:54Ukraine is correct. Playing well.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Pat,

0:18:56 > 0:19:03which member of the Mitford family was the wife of the British fascist leader Sir Oswald Mosley?

0:19:06 > 0:19:11My first instinct is it's Diana, but I'm not entirely sure.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13Unity and Jessica...

0:19:15 > 0:19:19Diana... I think I have to go with Diana.

0:19:19 > 0:19:24Diana is the correct answer, Pat. Well done. OK, Dan,

0:19:24 > 0:19:29this is a tough battle you're engaged in here.

0:19:29 > 0:19:35Which institution did Hillary Clinton say had turned down her application to join

0:19:35 > 0:19:40on the grounds that she was too old, couldn't see and was a woman?

0:19:46 > 0:19:47Hmm.

0:19:47 > 0:19:51I don't think it's the Church of Scientology.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58When I first thought about it, Harvard came into it straight away.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01But now I see US Marines there.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06I think I'll go for US Marines.

0:20:06 > 0:20:11- US Marines is your answer?- Yeah. - It's right. Three out of three.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13If Pat gets this wrong,

0:20:13 > 0:20:18you're in the final. Which political adviser wrote The New Machiavelli:

0:20:18 > 0:20:21How To Wield Power In The Modern World?

0:20:27 > 0:20:33They're all... prominent advisers or spin doctors.

0:20:33 > 0:20:39Jonathan Powell was, I think, a very close personal secretary to Tony Blair.

0:20:39 > 0:20:44Derek Draper was involved, I think, in Labour politics.

0:20:44 > 0:20:52And Alastair Campbell has written loads of diaries on his time as Tony Blair's Press Officer.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55The New Machiavelli...

0:20:55 > 0:21:00I think Jonathan Powell has published. I'm not sure what it was.

0:21:00 > 0:21:03Alastair Campbell has had a whole succession of memoirs.

0:21:03 > 0:21:10I'm in trouble here. I think I'm going to have to just pick one and hope for the best.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13I'm going to go for Jonathan Powell.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16Jonathan Powell is correct. Three each.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18It's never straightforward.

0:21:18 > 0:21:23The multiple choice section is over. We go to Sudden Death.

0:21:23 > 0:21:27- I don't give you options here.- OK. - Here's your question.

0:21:27 > 0:21:34From 1957-1963, John George Diefenbaker was Prime Minister of which country?

0:21:34 > 0:21:37I don't know this,

0:21:37 > 0:21:41but for some reason I'm thinking of Canada, so Canada.

0:21:41 > 0:21:47- Your answer is Canada?- Yeah. - It's correct.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49Lovely work. How did you get it?

0:21:49 > 0:21:55- I thought it sounded a bit French, so I thought French...Canada. - Sure. Pat, if you get this wrong,

0:21:55 > 0:22:02you're out. Who was the last Prime Minister of the French post-war Fourth Republic?

0:22:02 > 0:22:08Oh, dear. Let's see if I can get my republics in order.

0:22:08 > 0:22:15They're currently in the Fifth Republic, which I think was kicked off by Charles de Gaulle.

0:22:15 > 0:22:22So who would the last... Who was de Gaulle's predecessor as ruler of France?

0:22:23 > 0:22:31Or, in fact, did de Gaulle... Is the Fifth Republic after de Gaulle? Is it something he concocted?

0:22:33 > 0:22:38I'll have to assume that when he came back to France the Fifth Republic started then

0:22:38 > 0:22:43and he became top dog. So I have to go before de Gaulle.

0:22:43 > 0:22:50I'm struggling, really. I have a name in my head, Rene Coty, but I'm not at all sure of it.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53I'll have to go with Rene Coty.

0:22:53 > 0:22:59Rene Coty is your answer. It's Charles de Gaulle, Pat.

0:22:59 > 0:23:01Charles de Gaulle is the answer.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03You had the information there.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Yes, poor technique.

0:23:05 > 0:23:10- Let me just check. Rene Coty was before...?- He was President.- OK.

0:23:10 > 0:23:15Pat, you are not in the final. Dan, very well played.

0:23:15 > 0:23:19If you both come back to us we will play that final round.

0:23:19 > 0:23:24So this is what we've been playing towards - the final round on general knowledge.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26But those of you who lost

0:23:26 > 0:23:32won't be allowed to take part in this round, so Dave and Chris from the Berlin Five

0:23:32 > 0:23:37and Pat and Judith from the Eggheads, please leave the studio.

0:23:38 > 0:23:43So Paul, Dan and Thomas, you're playing to win £12,000.

0:23:43 > 0:23:49Chris, Barry and Kevin are playing for something money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:49 > 0:23:56I shall ask each team three questions on general knowledge. You are allowed to confer.

0:23:56 > 0:24:02Paul, Dan and Thomas, the key question is are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three?

0:24:02 > 0:24:06- First or second?- I think we'll stick with tradition and go first.

0:24:10 > 0:24:16Here we go. What type of flowers are particularly associated with Dame Edna Everage?

0:24:21 > 0:24:26- Anyone know this?- No. - I can see it in my head,

0:24:26 > 0:24:28- but I can't...- I'm thinking tulips.

0:24:28 > 0:24:33What would she...? Chrysanthemums? Really?

0:24:35 > 0:24:40- Tulips came to my mind.- Gladioli. No one's going for gladioli.

0:24:40 > 0:24:45She's Australian, isn't she? So would there be one

0:24:45 > 0:24:49- that's Australian, or...? - Tulips aren't Australian.

0:24:49 > 0:24:54- Why do you think tulips? - I don't know. What do you...?

0:24:54 > 0:25:00I think chrysanthemums. Just in he back of my head I've got her saying it.

0:25:00 > 0:25:05- It's a word you don't forget. - Want to do an impression?- No!

0:25:05 > 0:25:10- You think that? - It's good logic with chrysanthemums.

0:25:10 > 0:25:14- Definitely not gladioli?- No. You can rule that one out.

0:25:14 > 0:25:18- You hope!- Yeah. - Down the middle, then?

0:25:18 > 0:25:23I think our final answer is chrysanthemums.

0:25:23 > 0:25:26- Chrysanthemums. - Just based on how it sounds.

0:25:26 > 0:25:31OK. Difficult one this if you're not...

0:25:31 > 0:25:34Probably of a certain age.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36Who's an Edna Everage fan here?

0:25:36 > 0:25:39- Not a fan, but...- We enjoy her.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42- What's the flower?- Gladioli. - Gladioli.

0:25:44 > 0:25:49The other performer who performs with gladioli is...?

0:25:49 > 0:25:53- Morrissey of The Smiths. - Oh, yes, of course.

0:25:53 > 0:26:00To take the lead. What is the technical name of the colour of the Golden Gate bridge?

0:26:04 > 0:26:09- - International Orange.- Must be. - - It's painted orange.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11- Are we happy?- Yeah.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16It's the most famous orange bridge in the world. International Orange.

0:26:16 > 0:26:20International Orange is right. Back to you, Berlin Five.

0:26:20 > 0:26:26Berlin Three. Walter Frederick Morrison, who died in 2010 aged 90,

0:26:26 > 0:26:30is credited with inventing which popular toy?

0:26:35 > 0:26:39- I've got no idea. - Yo-yo jumped at me.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41Space hopper jumped at me.

0:26:43 > 0:26:48- It could be any one of them. - I'm not pushed for any, really.

0:26:48 > 0:26:52Walter Frederick Morrison, aged 90 in 2010.

0:26:52 > 0:26:56Any big upheaval of the three of them in 2010?

0:26:56 > 0:27:00We're basically saying... When were they invented?

0:27:00 > 0:27:02Which one came first?

0:27:02 > 0:27:05If he died when he was 90,

0:27:05 > 0:27:09he probably invented it in the '60s or '70s.

0:27:09 > 0:27:14I'd say it was a bit earlier on. I'd say '50s, '60s.

0:27:14 > 0:27:18- Inventing.- The space hopper's been around for a bit.

0:27:18 > 0:27:22- The frisbee's been around longer. - And the yo-yo forever.

0:27:22 > 0:27:27- So space hopper?- Space hopper. - I think we'll go with space hopper.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30Space hopper is your answer.

0:27:30 > 0:27:32It's frisbee.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36It's frisbee. OK, Eggheads, if you get this right

0:27:36 > 0:27:43you've taken the contest. Belgian Kriek beer is flavoured with which fruit?

0:27:46 > 0:27:48- Are we all happy?- Yeah.

0:27:48 > 0:27:54Well, Kevin and I do a lot of quizzing in Belgium and we've sampled a fair few beers.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56Kriek beer is flavoured with cherry.

0:27:56 > 0:28:01Belgian Kriek beer is indeed flavoured with cherry.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03Congratulations. You have won.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11Sorry, Berlin Five.

0:28:11 > 0:28:16- It was tough at the end there. - Bad start.- Edna Everage.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18Yeah...

0:28:18 > 0:28:23Thanks for coming in. The Eggheads have done what comes naturally.

0:28:23 > 0:28:28Their winning streak continues. You won't go home with the £12,000,

0:28:28 > 0:28:32so the money is rolled over. Eggheads, very well done.

0:28:32 > 0:28:39Who will beat you? Join us next time to see if some new challengers can defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:39 > 0:28:43£13,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
