0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:24Welcome to Eggheads,

0:00:27 > 0:00:30attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40And taking on our awesome quiz champions today
0:00:40 > 0:00:42are The Priory Professors.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44This team of childhood friends take their name
0:00:44 > 0:00:47from the band they formed in their teenage years,
0:00:47 > 0:00:51which in turn was named after the street where brothers Joey
0:00:51 > 0:00:54and Jimmy used to live in Carmarthen.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57And where the guys used to practise. Let's meet them.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Joey, I'm 22 and I'm a business student.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Jimmy, I'm 24 and I'm a motor sport journalist.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Hi, I'm Rhodri, I'm 25 and I study music engineering.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Hi, I'm Dom, I'm 26 and I'm a furniture maker.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Hi, I'm Dan, I'm 22 and I'm a musician.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17- Joey and team, a warm welcome to you.- Nice to meet you, Jeremy.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20I know life's moved on but can you, when you think about it,
0:01:20 > 0:01:23take yourself back to that room where you used to play in the band?
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Well, it's a garage but, yeah, I can still see it. It was great fun.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31- Do you want to go through the instruments?- Bass, guitar...
0:01:31 > 0:01:35- Bass as well.- Drums. - And I was guitar as well.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38- And you all played at once or...? - We jammed together.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40If someone was available or whatever we'd go in.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42Rotating membership.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45It is a key part of the teenage years -
0:01:45 > 0:01:47I had this as well - being in a band.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50And you look back and you think what fun it was.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52Brilliant. I wouldn't change it for anything.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54OK, so let's see how we do.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58Everyday there is £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04I can tell you, Priory Professors,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07that the Eggheads have won the last 24 games,
0:02:07 > 0:02:13which means £25,000 is on the table for you to play for today.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15- Nice one. - Shall we start?- Yep.- Yes.- Yes.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20How about that? There'll be a fight over this.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23- Well, no.- What do you think? - I think I'll take this one.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25- I can take this.- Go for it. - He's the pro.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Against which Egghead?
0:02:27 > 0:02:30I'm not sure who's the best to go against. That's up to you really.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- Shall we go with Barry?- OK.- Yep.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36So, Dan from the Priory Professors versus Barry,
0:02:36 > 0:02:38the Egghead's very own professor.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41The subject's Music and to make sure there's no conferring
0:02:41 > 0:02:43please go to the question room now.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47So, Music - three multiple choice questions.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51- Dan, you can choose the first or second set.- I think I'll go first.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Here we go and good luck to you and your team.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Which Christmas song features the lines,
0:02:58 > 0:02:59"Where the treetops glisten
0:02:59 > 0:03:03"and children listen to hear sleigh bells in the snow"?
0:03:12 > 0:03:16Well, if I'm honest with you I'm not a massive fan of Christmas songs
0:03:16 > 0:03:19so I don't know it.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22I don't think it's White Christmas, for some reason.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25I don't... Let It Snow? Er...
0:03:25 > 0:03:27For some reason Winter Wonderland,
0:03:27 > 0:03:30it's the two big Ws there is making me want to go for that
0:03:30 > 0:03:32so I think I'll choose that one, please.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Winter Wonderland. Your band are laughing. Anyone? Band?
0:03:36 > 0:03:37What do you think?
0:03:37 > 0:03:39- I think it's White Christmas. - White Christmas.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42I'm sorry, Dan, it is White Christmas.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43Barry,
0:03:43 > 0:03:48Judy Teen was a UK hit single for which band led by Steve Harley?
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Steve Harley was the Cockney Rebel... with Cockney Rebel.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Absolutely, Cockney Rebel is the right answer.
0:03:59 > 0:04:00Your question, Dan.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04What was the first UK number one single for the group Queen?
0:04:10 > 0:04:14OK, I'm pretty sure it was in 1976 and it was Bohemian Rhapsody.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16I hope.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Bohemian Rhapsody is the right answer. Well done.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21- I think the date was '75, Dan... - Oh, really?
0:04:21 > 0:04:24..but absolutely the right answer.
0:04:24 > 0:04:25Barry, your question -
0:04:25 > 0:04:28which ballet dancer is mentioned in the lyrics
0:04:28 > 0:04:30of the song Where Do You Go To, My Lovely?
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Oh, this is one of my all-time favourite songs by Peter Sarstedt
0:04:41 > 0:04:45and the ballet dancer mentioned is Zizi Jeanmaire.
0:04:45 > 0:04:46Zizi Jeanmaire is correct.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48It's funny - I've heard that lyric
0:04:48 > 0:04:51so many times I didn't know what he was talking about.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55Dan, if you get this question wrong, you've lost the head-to-head.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Cecil Sharp, who died in 1924,
0:04:58 > 0:05:01is most associated with what type of music?
0:05:04 > 0:05:08Cecil Sharp. OK. Er...
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Thinking of the period,
0:05:10 > 0:05:13it sounds like quite a British name to me - Cecil.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16But, you know, that's just a guess, really.
0:05:16 > 0:05:21And I'm not sure if there was that much jazz going on that era.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24It doesn't really sound like it could be linked.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27I'm going to go with folk, please. Just as a guess.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31Nicely done, you're right. Well done. Folk is the answer.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Barry, if you get this right, you are in the final.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37Which musical was awarded a special Pulitzer Prize in 1944?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Ooh, that's a good question.
0:05:45 > 0:05:491944? I think Oklahoma was a little bit later than 1944
0:05:49 > 0:05:51so I don't think it was that.
0:05:51 > 0:05:56Carmen Jones, of course, was the musical version of Bizet's Carmen.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Would that be awarded a Pulitzer Prize?
0:05:59 > 0:06:02I don't know but On The Town, I think, was a...
0:06:02 > 0:06:05might have had a propaganda effort
0:06:05 > 0:06:08so I think that might have been awarded a Pulitzer prize.
0:06:08 > 0:06:09I'll go for On The Town.
0:06:09 > 0:06:13Let's check with the Eggheads. Who likes their musicals? Judith?
0:06:13 > 0:06:14I think that sounds reasonable.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17I thought Carmen Jones was later than that.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19The answer is actually Oklahoma.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22- I thought that was later. - Good news for you, Dan.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24You've taken him to Sudden Death.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28- I don't give you the options here, OK, so it's a bit harder.- I know.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31Who played the Mother Superior in the London production
0:06:31 > 0:06:35of the musical Sister Act, when it opened in 2009?
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Wow.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41That is a hard question.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45I actually know the guy who played bass in that production
0:06:45 > 0:06:48but he never mentioned who was in the cast.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51I really... Hmm.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Keira Knightley...isn't the answer but that's all I've got.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Keira Knightley?
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- Sheila Hancock. - Oh, Sheila. Big Sheils.
0:07:07 > 0:07:08Barry,
0:07:08 > 0:07:10get this right, you're in the final.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14"But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before,"
0:07:14 > 0:07:17a line from a song in which musical?
0:07:19 > 0:07:22HE SINGS: I have often walked down this street before
0:07:22 > 0:07:25but the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27It's from My Fair Lady.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30My Fair Lady is the right answer. You've taken the round.
0:07:30 > 0:07:31Dan's knocked out by an Egghead.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34No shame in that but you won't be in the final.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41As it stands, the challengers have lost one brain from the final round,
0:07:41 > 0:07:45whilst the Eggheads have lost no brains. The next subject is Sport.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Is that good for you?
0:07:47 > 0:07:50I think that'd good for us. I think I'm going to take it.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53- Joey, all right, against...? - Judith or Chris.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57Chris, actually. I reckon Judith knows the tennis.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59So, Chris then.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- I reckon Chris, yeah.- Yeah?
0:08:02 > 0:08:05In Judith's world, that's what laughter looks like.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08She's laughing uproariously there.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12Joey from The Priory Professors - Chris is not laughing -
0:08:12 > 0:08:16versus Chris from the Eggheads on Sport.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Do take your positions, please, in the Question Room.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23OK, Chris and Joey, it's Sport and it's three questions,
0:08:23 > 0:08:27multiple choice and, Joey, you can choose the first or second set.
0:08:27 > 0:08:28I'd like to go first, please.
0:08:31 > 0:08:32Here we go.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35Which Premier League manager has been known as the Professor?
0:08:39 > 0:08:43Well, I think that's quite a good question for me
0:08:43 > 0:08:46because I think I know it's Arsene Wenger.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49- Arsene Wenger is right.- Brilliant.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Chris, in which sport is the Irishman Eddie Jordan a famous name?
0:08:57 > 0:08:58Hmm.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02There's a Jordan motor racing team, isn't there, so it's motor racing.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Motor racing is the right answer.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Your question, Joey -
0:09:06 > 0:09:12in the 2010 Tour De France, Lance Armstrong rode for which team?
0:09:16 > 0:09:20Cycling's not a strong subject here, Jeremy.
0:09:21 > 0:09:27Team RadioShack? Rabobank? Team Katusha?
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Well, I'm going to rule out Team Katusha.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39I have a feeling Team RadioShack seems like the most reasonable answer
0:09:39 > 0:09:40so Team RadioShack.
0:09:40 > 0:09:45Very good - Team RadioShack is correct. Two out of two so far.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Chris, which former tennis player
0:09:47 > 0:09:51was Andy Murray's coach from 2005 to 2006?
0:09:55 > 0:09:56Oh.
0:09:57 > 0:10:02David Lloyd's got his whole train of gyms to look after, hasn't he,
0:10:02 > 0:10:05so I doubt he'd have the time to coach one-on-one.
0:10:05 > 0:10:10Er, I don't think it's Chris Bailey but the name Mark Petchey
0:10:10 > 0:10:12rings a vague bell so I'll go with Mark Petchey.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15Mark Petchey is the right answer, Chris.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Enjoying this sporting round, eh?
0:10:17 > 0:10:22About as much as I enjoy root canal work, you know.
0:10:22 > 0:10:23Sport not Chris' favourite.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Third question to you, Joey.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28On which horse did Johnny Murtagh win the Epsom Derby,
0:10:28 > 0:10:33the Irish Derby and the Prix De L'Arc De Triomphe in 2000?
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Well...
0:10:40 > 0:10:43I know absolutely nothing about horse racing
0:10:43 > 0:10:45except there's horses in it.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48So it's going to have to be a complete guess at Sinndar.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Sinndar is the right answer.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54Chris, if you get this wrong,
0:10:54 > 0:10:56you are out.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59The skier Hanni Wenzel,
0:10:59 > 0:11:03a gold medallist at the Lake Placid Winter Olympics
0:11:03 > 0:11:05represented which country?
0:11:08 > 0:11:12It's H-A-N-N-I and then W-E-N-Z-E-L.
0:11:12 > 0:11:13Hmm.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15HE CLEARS THROAT
0:11:15 > 0:11:19Well, the E-L ending of his surname sounds a bit Flemish to me
0:11:19 > 0:11:21so it could be Belgium.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26Liechtenstein is basically a sinkhole for other people's money
0:11:26 > 0:11:28so I don't think they produce many skiers
0:11:28 > 0:11:30although they are alpine, basically.
0:11:30 > 0:11:36Luxembourg... Well, just going on the population of those three,
0:11:36 > 0:11:39the percentage possibilities of producing a skier,
0:11:39 > 0:11:41it's got to be Belgium.
0:11:42 > 0:11:43Well,
0:11:43 > 0:11:47those viewers from Liechtenstein who are watching
0:11:47 > 0:11:50may now dance a jig of joy
0:11:50 > 0:11:52because their country has done more
0:11:52 > 0:11:55that just act as a sinkhole for money,
0:11:55 > 0:11:57it has produced Hanni Wenzel as well, the skier.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59So, on that, you've been knocked out.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Well done, Joey, you're in the final round.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04You've beaten an Egghead on Sport,
0:12:04 > 0:12:06you've edged a bit closer to the jackpot.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10If you both come back and rejoin your teams, we will play on.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13- Nice work by the captain.- Thanks.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15Things are turning around, do you think?
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Yeah, we're going to go on and win it.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19OK, good. So the challengers have a lost one brain
0:12:19 > 0:12:23but the Eggheads have now lost a brain, Chris, as well.
0:12:23 > 0:12:24The next subject is Arts & Books.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26THEY SIGH
0:12:26 > 0:12:29So, who wants this? Is that a sigh of joy or pain?
0:12:29 > 0:12:31That's pain. That's very big pain.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33Do any of you want to do it?
0:12:33 > 0:12:36Who doesn't want to be in the last round?
0:12:36 > 0:12:39I can do it but...
0:12:39 > 0:12:43You all right with art, Dom, at all?
0:12:43 > 0:12:48I went to art college a little bit, my mum is an art college tutor
0:12:48 > 0:12:51but I don't really take too much notice.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54- It's still more than we've got. - So I'll go for it.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58Dom, all right, against...? Choose the Egghead.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00I think this is a hard choice, to be honest.
0:13:00 > 0:13:05Yeah, because you two stole the easier ones. No offence.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07I'm going to go for Pat.
0:13:07 > 0:13:13So, Dom from The Priory Professors against Pat from the Eggheads.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17Please, if you can, go to the Question Rooms now.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Dom, tell us what you do.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23- I make furniture. - Great skill. You must be in demand.
0:13:23 > 0:13:28A lot of people want me but not necessarily for my woodworking.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30Good line.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34I'll ask each of you three questions on Arts & Books in turn
0:13:34 > 0:13:37and Dom, you can choose the first or second set of questions.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39I'm going to go for the first, please.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Here we go with your first question, Dom. Good luck.
0:13:44 > 0:13:49Which word describes the novels first popular in the late 18th
0:13:49 > 0:13:50and early 19th centuries,
0:13:50 > 0:13:54traditionally set in an atmosphere of mystery and horror?
0:13:59 > 0:14:06Er, I don't think Celtic or Saxon sound particularly mysterious
0:14:06 > 0:14:07or dark.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10I'm going to go with Gothic.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Gothic is correct. Well done.
0:14:13 > 0:14:18Pat, the Venus De Milo discovered in 1820 is made from which material?
0:14:22 > 0:14:26I've always thought it was a stone-like material.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29I'm not sure the Greeks were casting bronze
0:14:29 > 0:14:32or had very advanced glass technology.
0:14:33 > 0:14:38I've always thought of it as stone-like so I'll say marble.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Marble is the correct answer.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45Missing an arm? Is that right?
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Missing both arms, I think.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50OK.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Dom, which English artist born 1877
0:14:53 > 0:14:56was known for her scenes of circus and ballet life?
0:15:02 > 0:15:08Er...I've got to admit I don't know a lot about female painters.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11I'm going to say Vanessa Bell.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15Let's just see if Pat knows this. Do you know this, Pat?
0:15:15 > 0:15:16Sounds like Laura Knight.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Laura Knight is the answer, Dom. You may fall behind.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23Was that just there in your mind somewhere but not coming?
0:15:23 > 0:15:27- No.- No. That's very honest. Pat,
0:15:27 > 0:15:31Gervase Phinn's series of books set in the Yorkshire Dales
0:15:31 > 0:15:33tell of his years spent in which job?
0:15:39 > 0:15:42My first thought is schools inspector
0:15:42 > 0:15:46but I haven't actually read any of these books.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48Landscape gardener, district nurse...
0:15:50 > 0:15:51..are possible.
0:15:51 > 0:15:55I've a faint recollection that it might be schools inspector.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Schools inspector is the right answer.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01It sounds interesting. Has anyone read them?
0:16:01 > 0:16:04No? They're great books. Great books.
0:16:04 > 0:16:05Have you read them?
0:16:05 > 0:16:07No.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Dom, your question.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12And you need to get this one right.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Which English author wrote the novel Room At The Top,
0:16:14 > 0:16:19later made into an award-winning film starring Laurence Harvey
0:16:19 > 0:16:20and Simone Signoret?
0:16:27 > 0:16:31I'm not particularly sure. I recognise the name of the title
0:16:31 > 0:16:34but I'm going to go for Keith Waterhouse.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37It's not Keith Waterhouse. Eggheads?
0:16:37 > 0:16:38ALL: John Braine.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42John Braine is the answer. Dom, you've been knocked out. I'm sorry.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Pat has won through
0:16:44 > 0:16:46on Arts & Books. What can I say?
0:16:46 > 0:16:50Please both of you come back and rejoin your teams.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54So, as it stands, the challengers have lost two brains from the final
0:16:54 > 0:16:56while the Eggheads have lost one brain.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59Our last subject before the final is Science.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02- Which Priory Professor wants it? - That's mine.- That's yours, Rhodri.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04- Rhodri? - Yeah, I'll be taking that one.- OK.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07Daphne?
0:17:07 > 0:17:12- Yeah, you reckon? On what basis? - I've seen her lose on Science before.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16Then, yeah, I think I'll take on Daphne, please.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Rhodri from The Priory Professors...
0:17:18 > 0:17:20- They've seen you lose on Science, Daphne.- You have.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24..against Daphne from the Eggheads and so there's no conferring,
0:17:24 > 0:17:26please go to the Question Rooms now.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29Rhodri, you're a great musician, I understand.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31Apparently so, yeah.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33- Playing which instrument again? - I play bass guitar.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35And tell us what you're doing.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38I'm a student. I study music engineering in Glamorgan.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42With a view to going on and using that professionally?
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Yeah, hopefully. I'd like to get a job in a recording studio
0:17:45 > 0:17:47or do some live engineering and things like that.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51I suppose there's a little bit of science in there. There's ohms...
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Yeah, there's some technical science information there.
0:17:54 > 0:17:58- Hopefully something will come up. - There's plugs, sockets...
0:17:58 > 0:18:01- What shape's the CD?- Cabling. Yeah, good. Sounds encouraging.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Daphne, you're not doing much studio work at the moment, are you?
0:18:04 > 0:18:06- SHE LAUGHS: No. - Apart from this.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09I'll ask each of you three questions Science in turn
0:18:09 > 0:18:11and, Rhodri, you can choose the first or second set.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13I think I'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19Here we go. How many legs does an ant have?
0:18:23 > 0:18:27I think, obviously, an ant's an insect so I'm going to go for six.
0:18:27 > 0:18:28Six is the right answer.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31That is one of those stinker questions, isn't it?
0:18:31 > 0:18:35You could've easily gone for eight. Well done.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Daphne, what is the name of the group of galaxies
0:18:37 > 0:18:39to which the Milky Way belongs?
0:18:45 > 0:18:49I like the idea of a neighbourhood group but it's the local group.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Local group is the right answer.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Back to you, Rhodri.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Which metal was historically produced
0:18:57 > 0:18:59by a technique known as puddling?
0:19:03 > 0:19:06I don't think it's iron to start off with.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11Out of the other two, I'm going to go for zinc.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Let's see if Daphne knows. Daphne? - Iron.- Iron is the right answer.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Oh, well.
0:19:16 > 0:19:17Bad luck.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Daphne, to take the lead,
0:19:19 > 0:19:22what type of drug is streptomycin?
0:19:27 > 0:19:34It's an antibiotic and I believe it was produced to treat TB.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38Antibiotic is the right answer. You've taken the lead.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Rhodri, you've got to get this one.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44Which parts of the body may be affected by pyelitis?
0:19:47 > 0:19:52- Could you spell pyelitis for me? - Of course. P-Y-E-L-I-T-I-S.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57I've never heard of that before so it's going to have to be a guess.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01I'm going to go for kidneys.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04Let's see if anyone on your teams knows. Anybody?
0:20:04 > 0:20:08- Don't have a clue.- We don't know. - No, anyone here? Daphne?
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- He's right.- You're right, Rhodri. Well done. Kidneys it is.
0:20:11 > 0:20:15So you've saved yourself. Let's see if Daphne dispatches you now.
0:20:15 > 0:20:20What type of creature is the Australian Thorny Devil?
0:20:23 > 0:20:25This for the round, Daphne.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29I think...it's a lizard.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Lizard is the correct answer. You have taken the round on Science.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36She does play very well.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- She did.- Although you may well have seen her lose in the past
0:20:39 > 0:20:41but it doesn't happen that much.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43Bad luck, you won't be in the final.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47If you both come back to us, we will play the final round.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50So, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53It is time for the final round which is, as always, General Knowledge.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56But those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:20:56 > 0:20:58won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:20:58 > 0:21:02So, Rhodri, Dom and Dan from The Priory Professors
0:21:02 > 0:21:06and Chris from the Eggheads, would you please now leave the studio?
0:21:08 > 0:21:13Joey and Jimmy, you are playing to win The Priory Professors £25,000.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Daphne, Barry, Pat and Judith,
0:21:15 > 0:21:18you're playing for something that money can't buy -
0:21:18 > 0:21:20the Eggheads' reputation.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23As usual, I will ask each team three question in turn.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26This time the questions are all General Knowledge.
0:21:26 > 0:21:27You can confer as well.
0:21:27 > 0:21:31So, Priory Professors, the question is are your two brains
0:21:31 > 0:21:33better than the Eggheads' four?
0:21:33 > 0:21:36- Would you like to first or second? - I think we'll go first.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42Good luck to you both. Brothers as well, I should've said.
0:21:42 > 0:21:43Joey and Jimmy.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47The term Estuary English refers to a spoken variety of English
0:21:47 > 0:21:51that originated in the area around the estuary of which river?
0:21:55 > 0:21:57- You know this, Jim? - I think it's the Thames.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59What am I basing that on?
0:21:59 > 0:22:00I just think it is.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04- If you think it is.- I've heard the term used, I live in London.
0:22:04 > 0:22:09I hope I'm right. I think it's Thames, Jeremy.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Thames is the correct answer. Well done.
0:22:12 > 0:22:13Eggheads,
0:22:13 > 0:22:18in 2009, psychologists at a Philadelphia university
0:22:18 > 0:22:21published research into the reasons why which bird
0:22:21 > 0:22:25spends time standing on one leg when resting?
0:22:28 > 0:22:32- Flamingo's the only one which stands on one leg.- It's got to be flamingo.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Turkeys have to stand on two because they're too fat.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39Penguins stand on two, don't they?
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Penguins couldn't stand on one leg.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45I wonder if it's won an Ig Nobel Prize. It has to be flamingo.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Flamingo.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49We think it's got to be flamingo.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51Flamingo is the correct answer.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55- What was the reason. We need to know. Do you know?- No.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58They're contemplating the world.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59OK. Your second question,
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Joey and Jimmy.
0:23:01 > 0:23:07The Aztec god Quetzal Coatl is usually depicted as what?
0:23:13 > 0:23:16Guys, I'm going to spell it for you, OK?
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Q-U-E-T-Z-A-L C-O-A-T-L.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23What do you think?
0:23:23 > 0:23:26The only Aztec thing... deity of any sort
0:23:26 > 0:23:31I can think of involves The Simpsons and it's not any of those.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Feathered serpent? Aztecs?
0:23:34 > 0:23:38Aztecs would've had... You have thought there'd be serpents about.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42- Would there have been...? - Feathered serpent?
0:23:42 > 0:23:48- I'd rule out plumed horse. - You don't think it's the horse?- No.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50See, I like horses.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52I'm tempted to go with the serpent
0:23:52 > 0:23:58just because the only sensible link is Aztec...sand...snake.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00That doesn't even make a lot of sense.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04- Let's just go for the serpent.- Yeah.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07I think we're just going to go for feathered serpent.
0:24:07 > 0:24:08We really don't have a good idea.
0:24:08 > 0:24:12- Feathered serpent is your answer? - Yeah.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14OK, you've got it right.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17- Yes!- Feathered serpent is the right answer.
0:24:19 > 0:24:24Eggheads, in which city is the 1976 film Taxi Driver set?
0:24:28 > 0:24:31- I assumed it was New York. - I- assumed it was New York.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33And Scorsese is...
0:24:33 > 0:24:36the quintessential New York director.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Pretty certain he drove a yellow taxi
0:24:38 > 0:24:42- which I think would imply New York. - Yeah, New York.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45OK, we think it's New York.
0:24:45 > 0:24:50Your answer is New York. From memory it is a yellow taxi, isn't it?
0:24:50 > 0:24:53And it is New York. You're correct. So two each.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56It would've been so good if they got that wrong.
0:24:56 > 0:25:00- You're quite right.- This one would be the one that the money rested on.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03As it is, I would suggest you need to get this right.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05- Indeed. - You're not knocked out if you don't
0:25:05 > 0:25:07but you know what they're like.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09And you want the £25,000.
0:25:11 > 0:25:15What type of entertainment is the Japanese Bunraku?
0:25:19 > 0:25:24I'll spell it for you - B-U-N-R-A-K-U. All one word.
0:25:27 > 0:25:32- Er...puppet theatre? - Bunraku, a traditional dance?
0:25:32 > 0:25:37- Bunraku dance. - Well, they do like to dance.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Puppet theatre seems a bit... I mean, it could be any of them.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43- We don't know, do we? - No, we don't know.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48If it was magic, it would be a specific kind of magic
0:25:48 > 0:25:51- that separated it from normal magic. - True. Shall we go?
0:25:54 > 0:25:56Shall we just go for a traditional dance?
0:25:56 > 0:25:58But it seems like the obvious one.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02- You don't want to say, do you? - No, I don't.
0:26:03 > 0:26:04Nor do I, man.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07Jeremy, we don't know.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10We've tried to work it out and we've not really got anywhere.
0:26:10 > 0:26:15So, we're going to go down the middle and say a traditional dance.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Traditional dance is your answer.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21- Barry has connections with Japan. Barry?- It's puppet theatre.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23Puppet theatre. Bad luck.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Which means, Eggheads,
0:26:25 > 0:26:28that if you get this right, the contest is over
0:26:28 > 0:26:31and our brave challengers do not get the money.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33The High Level Bridge
0:26:33 > 0:26:36is a grade-one-listed road and rail bridge
0:26:36 > 0:26:40that directly connects which two places?
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Where's Chris when you need him?
0:26:50 > 0:26:53He's probably gesticulating at the back.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55- I know this. - You know this?- What is it?
0:26:55 > 0:26:58- I don't have anything about Southend.- Liverpool?
0:26:58 > 0:27:00It's not. Liverpool and Birkenhead's about a mile.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02You couldn't connect it with a bridge.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05It's one of about five bridges over the Tyne
0:27:05 > 0:27:08connecting Newcastle and Gateshead.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10There's the Swing Bridge, Classic Arch Bridge,
0:27:10 > 0:27:12Red Ruth bridge and High Level Bridge.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14In fact the Arch Bridge may be the High Level Bridge.
0:27:14 > 0:27:19- Wow.- So it's Newcastle and Gateshead.- OK.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23Pat is very convincing. He says it's Newcastle and Gateshead.
0:27:23 > 0:27:28You haven't deployed the Keppel technique of going down the right.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30You've gone for Newcastle and Gateshead.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32It's the correct answer.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35Congratulations, Eggheads, you've won.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43It's one of those across the Tyne.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46I'm trying to search for consolation.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49At least they knew bunraku. Did you know the high level bridge?
0:27:49 > 0:27:50No.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53That's probably the one we wouldn't have gone for, funnily enough.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55OK, well, commiserations to you.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57The Eggheads have done what comes naturally
0:27:57 > 0:28:00and their winning streak continues.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02That means The Priory Professors won't be going home
0:28:02 > 0:28:04with the £25,000 - I won't rub it in -
0:28:04 > 0:28:07so the money now rolls over to the next show.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:10 > 0:28:13Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:13 > 0:28:15have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:15 > 0:28:20£26,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
