These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:040:00:08

Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:090:00:15

The question is - can they be beaten?

0:00:160:00:19

Welcome to Eggheads where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:230:00:26

attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:260:00:30

They have won some of the country's toughest quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.

0:00:300:00:36

Taking on the awesome might of our quiz Goliaths today

0:00:360:00:39

are The Money Pit. This team all work together

0:00:390:00:43

in the finance department of a health care company in Manchester. Let's meet them.

0:00:430:00:48

Hello, I'm Mark, I'm 37 and I'm a finance manager.

0:00:480:00:51

Hello, I'm Andy, I'm 39. I'm a purchase ledger manager.

0:00:510:00:55

Hello, I'm Helen, I'm 53 and I'm a credit controller.

0:00:550:00:59

Hello, I'm Kelly, I'm 28 and I'm a finance assistant.

0:00:590:01:02

Hello, I'm Zoe, I'm 59 and I'm an accounts assistant.

0:01:020:01:06

-So, Mark and team, welcome.

-Hello.

-Are you big quizzers or just colleagues?

0:01:060:01:11

Just colleagues. We're very much amateurs when it comes to quizzing.

0:01:110:01:16

We've got some good Manchester connections because there has been a rumour that Alex Ferguson watches.

0:01:160:01:22

-We're from Manchester, so obviously we're not Manchester United fans(!)

-Some of us. Some of us aren't.

0:01:220:01:29

And Morrissey as well, another great Manchester name. What did he say to you, CJ?

0:01:290:01:34

He just said how much he liked the show, sat down and we had tea.

0:01:340:01:38

-Morrissey and CJ - can you imagine a more unusual pairing?

-Awesome!

0:01:380:01:43

Good luck to you. Every day, there is £1,000-worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.

0:01:430:01:49

If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:01:490:01:54

So, The Money Pit, the Eggheads have actually won the last 15 games,

0:01:540:01:58

which means £16,000 says you can't beat them today. How about that?

0:01:580:02:03

-16,000?

-Happy with that.

-Happy with that?

-Yeah.

-The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.

0:02:030:02:10

Which challenger would like Music?

0:02:100:02:12

Do you want to volunteer first, Kelly?

0:02:120:02:15

I think she does. She's a bit reluctant.

0:02:150:02:19

I've not got a specialist subject, so I'll just go with the flow, yes.

0:02:190:02:23

-Kelly from The Money Pit against which Egghead?

-I think we'll go for...the trainspotter Chris.

0:02:230:02:30

-Would you care to re-phrase that? I'm not a trainspotter.

-I thought you might get upset.

0:02:300:02:35

That's good, a bit of needle. So Kelly from The Money Pit versus Chris from the Eggheads.

0:02:350:02:40

To ensure no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.

0:02:400:02:45

So, Kelly, you like your music?

0:02:460:02:48

I'm having second thoughts now, but I'll try my best.

0:02:480:02:52

-What sort of music do you like?

-I like R&B music.

0:02:520:02:55

But you can guarantee I'll get asked a question from the 1940s or something!

0:02:550:03:00

-R&B has got quite a long history, hasn't it?

-Yeah. I like the more modern type R&B.

-OK.

0:03:000:03:06

So three multiple choice questions on Music and you can choose the first or the second set, Kelly.

0:03:060:03:12

Um... I'll go for the second set, please.

0:03:120:03:16

Here we go. Chris first. The lines, "Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious,

0:03:190:03:25

"if you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious" come from a song in which musical?

0:03:250:03:31

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious comes from Mary Poppins.

0:03:330:03:37

Mary Poppins is the right answer. OK, Kelly, your question.

0:03:370:03:42

For which genre of music is the American recording artist Lyle Lovett best known?

0:03:420:03:47

I should have gone first.

0:03:500:03:53

I'm going to say it's not hip-hop.

0:03:530:03:56

I'm going to go with country.

0:03:580:04:01

-Country is quite right. Well done.

-Oh.

-You got it right.

0:04:010:04:05

Chris, Pelican West, released in 1982, was the debut album of which band?

0:04:080:04:13

Haircut 100, Heaven 17...

0:04:190:04:21

Eeh...

0:04:210:04:24

I'll have to go down the middle for Heaven 17.

0:04:240:04:27

Heaven 17 is wrong. It was Haircut 100.

0:04:270:04:30

Kelly, you can take the lead if you get this one right.

0:04:300:04:34

Tell It To My Heart was a 1988 UK hit single for which American female vocalist

0:04:340:04:40

with the real name of Leslie Wunderman?

0:04:400:04:43

I'm sort of humming it in my head.

0:04:500:04:52

I'm leaning towards Paula Abdul. I don't know why.

0:04:530:04:57

I'm going to go with Paula Abdul.

0:04:570:04:59

Paula Abdul is the wrong answer. Anyone on your side?

0:04:590:05:03

-Taylor Dayne.

-Taylor Dayne.

-When were you born, Kelly?

0:05:030:05:07

-1982.

-Yeah, you were too young for that one.

-Yeah, I've got an excuse.

0:05:070:05:12

So we have one point to the Eggheads

0:05:120:05:14

and one point to the challengers. Third question to you, Chris.

0:05:140:05:18

Who composed the Oscar-nominated score for the 1954 film, On The Waterfront?

0:05:180:05:25

Too early for John Williams and Andre Previn.

0:05:280:05:32

It's got to be Leonard Bernstein.

0:05:320:05:34

Leonard Bernstein is the right answer, Chris.

0:05:340:05:37

So he's in the lead, Kelly.

0:05:370:05:39

If you can, get this one right and stay in it.

0:05:390:05:43

Which composer's Piano Sonata No.29 is commonly known as the Hammerklavier Sonata?

0:05:430:05:49

I'm going to go between Beethoven and Brahms.

0:05:550:05:59

I think I'll go for...

0:05:590:06:02

..Brahms.

0:06:030:06:05

-I was fearing that. It's Beethoven.

-Yeah.

-Kelly, sorry.

-Never mind.

0:06:050:06:09

You've been knocked out by Chris and didn't quite get to Sudden Death.

0:06:090:06:13

But well done for trying. Please come back and rejoin your teams.

0:06:130:06:18

Mark, you are the religious viewer of Eggheads?

0:06:190:06:22

-Correct.

-The others maybe not so?

-They're a bit green on the Eggheads, I'm afraid.

0:06:220:06:28

Are you going to adjust tactics now?

0:06:280:06:31

Tactically, I make the decisions and they go with it.

0:06:310:06:35

The challengers have lost a brain. The Eggheads are still intact,

0:06:350:06:39

the shell unbroken. The next subject is Sport.

0:06:390:06:42

So what happens now?

0:06:420:06:44

-Do you fancy that, Andy?

-I'll take that one.

-Andy on Sport versus...?

0:06:440:06:49

We'll go up against...

0:06:490:06:51

..Connagh-Joseph.

0:06:520:06:54

-Or CJ.

-Oh, that one, yes, all right.

0:06:540:06:57

OK, Andy from The Money Pit on Sport against CJ from the Eggheads. Please go to the question room now.

0:06:570:07:04

-Andy, your favourite sport is Formula One?

-Yes, I don't mind watching that every now and again.

0:07:060:07:12

We have a lot of Formula One in this round, so let's see if it comes your way. Sport is the subject.

0:07:120:07:17

-Multiple choice questions. You can choose the first or second set.

-I'll go first.

0:07:170:07:22

Good luck. In which English football club did the American businessman John W Henry invest in 2010?

0:07:250:07:31

It wasn't City. That was Middle Eastern.

0:07:360:07:40

It certainly wasn't Villa, so I'll go for Liverpool.

0:07:400:07:44

Liverpool is the right answer.

0:07:440:07:47

CJ, in netball, what distance must actively defending players stay away from the person with the ball?

0:07:480:07:55

It's certainly not three yards.

0:07:580:08:01

Actively defending...

0:08:010:08:04

I mean, when somebody is trying to shoot for the net,

0:08:060:08:10

the defending players can put up their hands,

0:08:100:08:14

but they're not allowed to touch them. They're closer than three feet.

0:08:140:08:18

-So I'll assume it's three inches.

-Three inches is your answer.

0:08:180:08:22

-Has anyone here played netball? You have, Kelly.

-It's three feet.

0:08:220:08:26

Three feet is the answer, says Kelly. CJ, you're wrong.

0:08:260:08:30

Andy, the German athlete Petra Felke won an Olympic gold medal in 1988 in which event?

0:08:310:08:38

Petra Felke...

0:08:440:08:46

Something tells me it was a runner, so that leaves out the javelin.

0:08:460:08:50

Um...

0:08:500:08:52

I don't think it was a long distance,

0:08:520:08:55

so I'm going to go with the 110 metres hurdles.

0:08:550:08:59

She may have been a runner, but in this instance,

0:08:590:09:02

she was a gold medallist in the javelin.

0:09:020:09:04

-Daphne knows something.

-Well, I went to the Seoul Olympics.

0:09:040:09:09

For Christmas that year, my children bought me a video of it

0:09:090:09:13

and there's Petra Felke throwing the javelin and you can see me in the front row.

0:09:130:09:19

-Really?

-Yes.

-Do you sit and watch that quite often?

0:09:190:09:23

No, but I know where the video is, yes.

0:09:230:09:26

CJ, your question to see if you can catch up or get a point.

0:09:260:09:30

The swimwear model Brooklyn Decker married which leading tennis player in 2009?

0:09:300:09:38

She sounds American. We've got two Americans there.

0:09:440:09:48

I think Andy Roddick got married in 2009.

0:09:500:09:53

I'm afraid I'm not up on Verdasco's romantic involvements

0:09:540:09:58

and Mardy Fish is...

0:09:580:10:01

..fairly minor as far as tennis players go.

0:10:030:10:07

I think the date fits for Andy Roddick.

0:10:080:10:12

Andy Roddick is the right answer. Well done.

0:10:120:10:16

Back to you, Andy.

0:10:160:10:18

If you get this right, you put a bit of pressure on.

0:10:180:10:21

The French international rugby union player Sebastien Chabal played for which English club

0:10:210:10:26

between 2004 and 2009?

0:10:260:10:29

Rugby union is not really my strong point,

0:10:340:10:38

so it'll be a complete guess.

0:10:380:10:40

Sale is round our way, so I'll go for Sale Sharks.

0:10:400:10:44

Let's ask Mark. Is he right?

0:10:440:10:46

-Definitely right.

-Yeah, you're right with Sale Sharks. Nice one.

0:10:460:10:51

He's taken the lead.

0:10:510:10:53

CJ, you need this point to stay in.

0:10:530:10:55

At which Olympic Games did the Hawaiian swimmer Duke Kahanamoku win the first of his three gold medals?

0:10:550:11:02

I don't know.

0:11:110:11:13

I don't think it's as late as '52.

0:11:140:11:17

Blind guess - Los Angeles.

0:11:200:11:22

You say 1932, Los Angeles. What happened with this guy,

0:11:220:11:27

he won medals two and three on the following Olympic Games.

0:11:270:11:32

There was a break,

0:11:320:11:34

but the Games that he won the first medal in was 1912, Stockholm.

0:11:340:11:39

So you've got that wrong.

0:11:390:11:41

Andy, well done. You are in the final round. How about that?

0:11:410:11:45

You've won through. Good news for our challengers. Both of you, come back and rejoin your team-mates.

0:11:450:11:53

So the challengers have lost one brain from the final round, but the Eggheads have lost a brain as well.

0:11:550:12:01

Let's see what happens next. It's Science. Who would like Science?

0:12:010:12:05

-That would have been Andy's subject as well. Any volunteers? Helen or Zoe or myself?

-One of you has to.

0:12:050:12:11

-He'll have to do it.

-He's staying till the end.

-We'll go for Helen.

0:12:110:12:16

-Helen against...?

-We'll pick the nice, lovely, smiling Daphne.

0:12:160:12:21

She's always at her most dangerous when she smiles.

0:12:210:12:25

Helen from The Money Pit versus the smiling assassin who is Daphne from the Eggheads.

0:12:250:12:32

To ensure there's no conferring, please go to the question rooms.

0:12:320:12:36

Is Science your subject at all?

0:12:360:12:38

I wouldn't have said so, Jeremy, but hey-ho, I'll have a go.

0:12:380:12:43

It's not really yours, Daphne, or is it, going back to school?

0:12:430:12:47

No, no, two years I did - Botany and Biology and that was it.

0:12:470:12:52

Good luck. You're starting from the same base almost here on Science,

0:12:520:12:56

not necessarily any formal knowledge of it, but let's see how you do.

0:12:560:13:01

-Helen, you can choose the first or the second set of questions.

-The first, please.

0:13:010:13:06

Sure thing. Here we go. Good luck.

0:13:090:13:11

The two must abundant elements that compose the sun are helium and which other?

0:13:110:13:16

Hmm...

0:13:220:13:23

For some reason, I'm not thinking carbon.

0:13:260:13:29

I'm not thinking...

0:13:320:13:34

..argon. I'm thinking hydrogen.

0:13:350:13:38

So I'm going to go with hydrogen.

0:13:380:13:40

Hydrogen is correct. Nicely done.

0:13:400:13:44

Which branch of medicine deals with diseases and conditions specific to the male sex?

0:13:460:13:51

Well, nephrology is kidneys.

0:13:560:13:59

The middle one is probably to do with the lungs,

0:13:590:14:03

but it's andrology.

0:14:030:14:06

Andrology is correct. Back to you, Helen.

0:14:060:14:10

What is the name of the endangered wild cat that is native to Spain?

0:14:100:14:14

Um...

0:14:190:14:21

I think I'm back with the guessing game here, Jeremy.

0:14:210:14:25

Em, I'm thinking

0:14:250:14:27

that Spain...cougar.

0:14:270:14:30

Nah.

0:14:300:14:32

Spain...lynx?

0:14:320:14:34

Nah. I'm going to go for Iberian Ocelot.

0:14:340:14:39

-Eggheads, do you know?

-Lynx.

-The lynx is the answer, Helen.

0:14:390:14:45

Daphne, over to you.

0:14:450:14:47

What idea was developed by the aeronautical engineer Barnes Wallis

0:14:470:14:50

to provide an effective aircraft configuration for either low-speed or high-speed flight?

0:14:500:14:57

Em...

0:15:060:15:07

Delta wing?

0:15:070:15:09

I'm just looking at your colleagues. They're not liking that, really.

0:15:100:15:15

-Barry, you know the answer?

-Swing wing.

0:15:150:15:18

What is swing wing?

0:15:180:15:20

The wings are extensible.

0:15:200:15:23

If you want to go fast, they can come back in

0:15:230:15:27

and hug the body of the plane.

0:15:270:15:30

Daphne, swing wing.

0:15:300:15:33

So over to you, Helen.

0:15:330:15:36

Who discovered and lent his name to the citric acid cycle

0:15:360:15:39

that is central to the metabolism of virtually all living organisms?

0:15:390:15:44

Oh, Jeremy, I...

0:15:500:15:52

I'm struggling here a little.

0:15:520:15:55

And I'm afraid I'm going to be... having to guess this one.

0:15:560:16:01

For some reason, I'm drawn to Hans Krebs and I can't begin to think why.

0:16:010:16:09

Aaron Klug...?

0:16:100:16:12

No.

0:16:120:16:14

No, I'm...

0:16:150:16:17

I'll have to go with an instinct. I don't know where the instinct's come from, but Hans Krebs.

0:16:170:16:24

Hans Krebs is correct.

0:16:240:16:26

The Krebs Cycle, is it?

0:16:280:16:31

-Yeah, the Krebs Cycle.

-Daphne, if you get this wrong you'll be knocked out.

0:16:310:16:37

Which part of the United States has reported a major ecological problem

0:16:370:16:41

due to the presence of thousands of Burmese pythons?

0:16:410:16:45

No idea! I haven't heard this story.

0:16:500:16:53

It might help if I knew what habitat they lived in, but I don't.

0:16:560:17:01

Em...pythons?

0:17:010:17:03

I think I'm going to get this wrong.

0:17:070:17:09

Em... Right, I'll have to go for one I think is the obvious one - the Florida Everglades.

0:17:090:17:16

Florida Everglades is correct.

0:17:170:17:20

Oh!

0:17:200:17:21

So you're equal

0:17:220:17:24

after our multiple-choice section. Helen, we go to Sudden Death.

0:17:240:17:29

I don't give you alternatives.

0:17:290:17:32

-Here is your first question. Are you ready?

-I am.

-Woolsorter's Disease is a name once given

0:17:320:17:38

to the pulmonary form of which disease? Woolsorter's is W-O-O-L-S-O-R-T-E-R'S.

0:17:380:17:46

I really don't have much of a clue, but I'm going to chance...

0:17:480:17:53

an answer...

0:17:540:17:56

Pleurisy?

0:17:580:17:59

Not pleurisy. Anthrax. Workers got it through

0:17:590:18:03

skin contact with animals.

0:18:030:18:06

Daphne, the foramen of Monro is found in which organ of the human body?

0:18:060:18:13

Foramen is spelt F-O-R-A-M-E-N.

0:18:130:18:17

The brain?

0:18:200:18:23

It is the passage between the lateral and the third ventricles of the brain, Daphne.

0:18:230:18:29

You take the round. Sorry, Helen.

0:18:290:18:32

Please, both of you, rejoin your team-mates and we'll play on.

0:18:320:18:37

-What now, Mark?

-The plan always was that I stay to the end, so whatever subject comes up

0:18:380:18:44

Zoe's getting lumbered with it.

0:18:440:18:47

-What's the one subject you don't want?

-Politics.

-OK.

0:18:470:18:51

As it stands, the challengers have lost two brains, the Eggheads one.

0:18:510:18:55

-The next subject is Politics.

-Oh, no!

-Sorry.

0:18:550:18:59

Zoe, who would you like to take on on your favourite subject?

0:18:590:19:04

Em...Barry?

0:19:040:19:06

We're from Lancashire, so we'll make it a War of the Roses and take on Barry.

0:19:060:19:13

-Oh, game on!

-Zoe from The Money Pit against Barry from the Eggheads.

0:19:130:19:19

Please go to the Question Room now.

0:19:190:19:22

-Zoe, why isn't politics your thing?

-I'm just not interested in politics.

0:19:220:19:28

-It was totally accidental. Sorry. We had it written down. Good luck.

-Thank you very much.

0:19:280:19:35

Three multiple choice questions. Choose the first or second set.

0:19:350:19:39

Let's get it over with. Can I have the first set, please?

0:19:390:19:43

Good luck. Here we go. Which part of the White House is often used for ceremonies and public statements?

0:19:460:19:53

Em...

0:19:570:19:59

I don't honestly think it's the Herb Garden or the Cottage Garden.

0:19:590:20:03

-I'll go for the Rose Garden.

-Rose Garden is correct. Well done.

0:20:030:20:08

Barry, what was the name of the party that formally merged with the Conservatives in 1912?

0:20:100:20:16

Well, they are known as the Conservative and Unionist Party so I guess it's Liberal Unionist.

0:20:200:20:26

Liberal Unionist is correct. Back to you, Zoe.

0:20:260:20:31

What was the average number of eligible voters in each of the 650 constituencies

0:20:310:20:36

contested in the 2010 General Election?

0:20:360:20:39

I'm not 100% sure on this.

0:20:500:20:53

I'm going to go straight down the middle on this one. 50,397.

0:20:530:20:59

-50,000-odd. Actually, 68 and a bit.

-Was it, really?

-Yeah, 68,175

0:20:590:21:06

is the average number.

0:21:060:21:08

Barry, to take the lead.

0:21:080:21:11

In March, 2007, the House of Lords voted overwhelmingly in favour of which method of reforming

0:21:110:21:18

the way its members are chosen?

0:21:180:21:21

Ah. It's certainly not fully elected or fully appointed.

0:21:250:21:29

I think it must be... Let me think. Half elected and half appointed?

0:21:290:21:33

I can't think.

0:21:330:21:36

Who would elect members to the House of Lords?

0:21:360:21:40

I think it has to be fully appointed.

0:21:420:21:46

-Very well done. It is. It's a bit tricky, that.

-It was indeed.

0:21:460:21:52

Zoe,

0:21:520:21:53

which subject did George Osborne study at Oxford University?

0:21:530:21:58

George Osborne...

0:22:030:22:05

I'm going to rule out art.

0:22:100:22:13

So out of the two, I'm actually going to go for history.

0:22:130:22:19

-So your answer is Modern History?

-Modern History, yeah.

0:22:190:22:24

Well done, correct.

0:22:240:22:28

You're playing well

0:22:280:22:30

considering you didn't want this! Now hope that Barry slips up.

0:22:300:22:34

Barry, in the 1980s, the 19th-century mansion called Drumthwacket

0:22:340:22:40

became the executive residence of which US state governor?

0:22:400:22:45

Goodness me. 19th-century mansions

0:22:490:22:52

normally would take you to the original colonies on the east coast,

0:22:520:22:57

but there were some very famous ones in California as well,

0:22:570:23:02

so I'm torn between the two.

0:23:020:23:04

Drumthwacket?

0:23:040:23:06

No, I'm going to stick with the east coast. I'll go for New Jersey, but I really don't know this one.

0:23:070:23:14

It IS actually New Jersey. Well done.

0:23:140:23:19

Zoe, sorry.

0:23:190:23:21

You fought a doughty battle, but were beaten by our Barry.

0:23:210:23:26

-Never mind!

-You won't be in the final and Barry will.

0:23:260:23:30

Come back and we'll play that final.

0:23:300:23:33

So this is what we've been playing towards - the final round on general knowledge.

0:23:330:23:38

But I'm afraid those of you who lost

0:23:380:23:41

won't be allowed to take part. So Helen, Kelly and Zoe from The Money Pit

0:23:410:23:46

and CJ from the Eggheads, would you please leave the studio?

0:23:460:23:51

So, Mark, the master plan now swings into action.

0:23:510:23:55

-It does. Well, it passed slightly, failed mostly.

-Well, we'll see.

0:23:550:24:02

You are playing to win £16,000. Kevin, Daphne, Chris and Barry,

0:24:020:24:07

you play for something money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.

0:24:070:24:11

I will ask each team three questions on general knowledge and you are allowed to confer.

0:24:110:24:18

Mark and Andy, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?

0:24:180:24:23

-And would you like to go first or second?

-First?

-First.

-First.

0:24:230:24:28

First question. Which film includes the famous line, "What we do in life echoes in eternity"?

0:24:300:24:37

-I've not heard the line.

-No, not a clue.

0:24:430:24:46

-Doesn't sound like School of Rock.

-I've never seen it.

0:24:470:24:51

I've seen Forrest Gump and I don't recall the line. But I've seen Gladiator and don't recall it.

0:24:510:24:58

-So...have you got any inkling at all, Andy?

-No. I'm leaning towards Forrest Gump,

0:24:580:25:03

-but I've no idea why.

-I'm drawn towards Gladiator.

0:25:030:25:08

Didn't he die at the end and he went into some sort of eternal life?

0:25:080:25:13

You're drawn towards Forrest Gump.

0:25:130:25:16

I'll go with yours.

0:25:180:25:20

You've got more thought behind it. Go with Gladiator.

0:25:200:25:23

Gladiator.

0:25:230:25:26

-Gladiator is right.

-Well done!

-OK, Eggheads, your question.

0:25:260:25:30

The cartoon character Billy the Fish regularly takes part in which sport in the comic Viz?

0:25:300:25:37

That's football.

0:25:400:25:42

-That's football.

-Football is correct. Back to you.

0:25:430:25:47

The ceremony for the Nobel Peace Prize takes place in the city hall of which Scandinavian city?

0:25:470:25:52

I've been to Gothenberg lots of times. It's not that. Is it Oslo or Stockholm?

0:25:580:26:04

I'm thinking Stockholm. Don't know why. Just am.

0:26:060:26:10

I'm drawn towards Oslo.

0:26:110:26:14

I was lucky last time. You might be lucky this time. Go Stockholm.

0:26:140:26:19

-Go on, then.

-We're going Stockholm.

0:26:200:26:24

-Stockholm?

-Yes.

-Eggheads?

0:26:240:26:26

For the Peace Prize, it's Oslo.

0:26:260:26:29

Oslo.

0:26:290:26:31

OK, it's not over.

0:26:310:26:34

The Eggheads can just implode.

0:26:340:26:36

Which author created the TV shows I Dream of Jeannie and Hart to Hart?

0:26:360:26:44

He was involved with TV...

0:26:490:26:52

-Yeah, we think it's Sidney Sheldon.

-Sidney Sheldon is correct.

0:26:520:26:57

So two points to the Eggheads,

0:26:590:27:01

one point to you. Your third question you must get right or the contest is over. £16,000 to win.

0:27:010:27:09

In which year did Isaac Pitman publish his shorthand system?

0:27:090:27:15

Well, I presume shorthand is the journalist writing, isn't it?

0:27:220:27:29

Never heard of the guy.

0:27:290:27:31

-No.

-Don't know how long it's been in operation.

0:27:310:27:35

-Any inkling at all? Any ideas?

-No. Down the middle?

0:27:350:27:40

Then we're not too far out either way and don't look stupid! We'll go down the middle - 1887.

0:27:400:27:46

The answer is 1837, so it's earlier than that.

0:27:460:27:50

Congratulations, Eggheads. You've won.

0:27:500:27:54

Guys, I'm sorry. Tough question.

0:27:590:28:02

-Them's the breaks.

-Yep, and the Eggheads have won.

0:28:020:28:06

They've done what comes naturally and they reign supreme again.

0:28:060:28:11

You won't go home with £16,000. The money rolls over to our next show.

0:28:110:28:16

Eggheads, very well done. Who will ever beat you?

0:28:160:28:20

Join us next time to see if a new team can defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:200:28:24

£17,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
