0:00:04 > 0:00:07'These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11'Together they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:11 > 0:00:15'arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:16 > 0:00:20'The question is, can they be beaten?'

0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers

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

0:00:30 > 0:00:34Their quiz pedigree is well-known as they've won some of the UK's

0:00:34 > 0:00:36toughest quizzes. They are the Eggheads.

0:00:36 > 0:00:41And taking on the might of our quiz goliaths today are The 42s.

0:00:41 > 0:00:45This team of friends have known one another for 30 years

0:00:45 > 0:00:48and they take their name from the Douglas Adams book

0:00:48 > 0:00:51The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy. Let's meet them.

0:00:51 > 0:00:55Hello, I'm Richard, I'm 64 and I'm a retired accountant.

0:00:55 > 0:01:00Hello, I'm Carole, I'm 56 and I'm a ward administrator.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hello, I'm Colin, I'm 67 and I'm a retired risk manager.

0:01:04 > 0:01:08Hello, I'm Graham, I'm 64 and I'm a retired librarian.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12Hello, I'm Andy, I'm 56 and I'm a computer analyst.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15- Richard and team, welcome to you. - Thank you.- Great to see you.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18Explain 42, for those few people who don't know the connection.

0:01:18 > 0:01:2342 is the answer to life, the universe and everything.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26Except that nobody knew what the question was.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29But we're hoping that it's going to bring us luck today.

0:01:29 > 0:01:33- And you are all big quizzers. - Little quizzers by comparison!

0:01:33 > 0:01:37Without giving you a big build-up, I sense a quizzing team here.

0:01:37 > 0:01:41- We enjoy quizzes, yes. - All right. Good luck to you.

0:01:41 > 0:01:45Every day there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the money rolls over.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53So, The 42s, the challengers actually won the last game,

0:01:53 > 0:01:59proving it can be done. So £1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Film & TV.

0:02:02 > 0:02:07- Who would like this? - It's got to be me, hasn't it?

0:02:07 > 0:02:11- I think it needs to be you, Colin. - Yes, it's me.- Colin on Film & TV.

0:02:11 > 0:02:16- Against which Egghead? - Erm, oh, Judith, please.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20OK. Colin from The 42s against Judith from the Eggheads

0:02:20 > 0:02:23on Film & TV. To ensure there's no conferring,

0:02:23 > 0:02:26take your positions in the question room.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30OK, Judith and Colin, it's Film & TV

0:02:30 > 0:02:33and three multiple choice questions in turn.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Colin, you can choose the first or second set.

0:02:36 > 0:02:37I'd like to go first, please.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Good luck. Here you go. "I pity the fool" was a line

0:02:43 > 0:02:46often heard in which TV show?

0:02:51 > 0:02:54Well, I'm not too sure about this.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58Erm, I don't think it's Knight Rider.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00It doesn't sound like that.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04So it could be The A-Team.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06They were a bit jokey.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09Charlie's Angels, I'm afraid I didn't see that.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13So I think I'll go for The A-Team.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16Well done. The A-Team is right. Good.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20Judith, in the TV series Doctor Who,

0:03:20 > 0:03:23what was the name of the doctor's companion

0:03:23 > 0:03:25played by Sophie Aldred?

0:03:30 > 0:03:33That was one Doctor Who I missed out on.

0:03:34 > 0:03:38I think she might have been called Ace.

0:03:38 > 0:03:43- How did you guess that?- Well, it just sounded the most likely.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46Yeah. It's Ace. Well done. Over to you, Colin.

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Which film company's logo features a boy

0:03:48 > 0:03:50sitting on a crescent moon and fishing?

0:03:56 > 0:03:59Yes, I think I know this.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02I'll rule out Miramax.

0:04:02 > 0:04:05Erm, it's between Lucasfilm and DreamWorks.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08I think it's DreamWorks.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11You've got it. DreamWorks is right. Playing well, Colin.

0:04:11 > 0:04:16Putting Judith under pressure. Judith, Max Boyce and Pam Ayres

0:04:16 > 0:04:20both appeared as contestants on which talent show?

0:04:25 > 0:04:28I'm trying to think how old Pam Ayres probably is.

0:04:30 > 0:04:35I think Opportunity Knocks must be too long ago.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38I think it might have been Star For A Night.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Star For A Night? Anyone?

0:04:42 > 0:04:45- Opportunity Knocks.- It is Opportunity Knocks, Judith.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48- Really?- Yeah.- Oh, well. - OK, Colin, your question.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51If you get this right, you're in the final.

0:04:51 > 0:04:55Which music programme was introduced with, "The weekend starts here"?

0:05:02 > 0:05:05Right.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07These take me back to my youth a little bit.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10Erm...

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Hm.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15I think it's Ready Steady Go!

0:05:15 > 0:05:18Ready Steady Go! is the correct answer.

0:05:18 > 0:05:22Well done. So you've beaten Judith. No way back for you.

0:05:22 > 0:05:26Our Egghead is out and the challengers have their first person

0:05:26 > 0:05:29into the final. Please come back and rejoin us.

0:05:31 > 0:05:35So as it stands, the challengers have lost no brains from the final.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37The Eggheads have now lost a brain.

0:05:37 > 0:05:41The next subject is Arts & Books. Which of you would like this?

0:05:41 > 0:05:44- This is a tricky one, isn't it?- Yes.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47- What do you think, Andy? - Do you want me to do it?

0:05:47 > 0:05:49- Do you think so? I think that'd be the best.- OK.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53- I'll do that. - Andy, OK. Against which Egghead?

0:05:53 > 0:05:57- Who do you suggest? - I would suggest CJ myself.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00- Yep, OK.- CJ looks artistic. - Andy from The 42s.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04- He's looking artistic, you think? You are right.- It's the shirt.

0:06:04 > 0:06:10Andy versus CJ from the Eggheads. Please go to the question rooms now.

0:06:11 > 0:06:15You are a very erudite team, Andy. What is your degree in?

0:06:15 > 0:06:17My degree is in Latin and librarianship.

0:06:17 > 0:06:21- I've also got a Masters in Latin historiography.- OK.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25- I think he can outrank you, CJ. - It's not difficult.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28- How is your Latin?- Non-existent.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31All right. And your librarianship? That's not much better.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34- I don't even have a library card. - Mm. OK.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37I'll ask you three question on Arts & Books in turn.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40Whoever answers the most correctly goes through to the final.

0:06:40 > 0:06:44- Andy, first or second set? - Erm, I think I'll go first, please.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50Here we go. Good luck, Andy. AA Milne's 1928 book

0:06:50 > 0:06:53The House At Pooh Corner saw the introduction of who?

0:07:00 > 0:07:04I'm not really familiar with the Pooh books, I must admit.

0:07:05 > 0:07:08I don't really know, but I'm going to guess Piglet.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Not Piglet, actually. Tigger.

0:07:12 > 0:07:16Bad luck. CJ, your question.

0:07:16 > 0:07:20Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe novels are set during which period of history?

0:07:25 > 0:07:28I've not read any of them myself

0:07:28 > 0:07:34but I think, from having seen trailers with Sean Bean in it,

0:07:34 > 0:07:36that it's the Napoleonic Wars.

0:07:36 > 0:07:41Napoleonic Wars is the right answer. Your second question, Andy.

0:07:41 > 0:07:45The bestselling book for job-hunters by Richard Nelson Bolles,

0:07:45 > 0:07:49first published in 1970, is called What Colour Is Your what?

0:07:55 > 0:07:57I've no idea.

0:08:01 > 0:08:05It's got to be something like parachute or umbrella, I'd guess.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10I'm going to guess parachute.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14- Is he right, team?- No idea. - It is a difficult question.

0:08:14 > 0:08:16Parachute is the answer.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18So you're right, well done.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22OK, CJ, to take the lead.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24What was the name of the woman who inspired the poetry

0:08:24 > 0:08:27of the Italian scholar Petrarch?

0:08:34 > 0:08:36No idea.

0:08:39 > 0:08:43I don't know. This is little more than a blind guess. Leonora.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Do you know this one, Andy? - It's Laura.

0:08:46 > 0:08:50Laura is the answer, CJ. Should've switched those two questions around.

0:08:50 > 0:08:55OK, so you're equal after two questions. Andy, this is yours.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58What Latin name is given to paintings which depict Jesus

0:08:58 > 0:09:02wearing the crown of thorns or with Pontius Pilate?

0:09:07 > 0:09:13Well, Pieta I thought was Italian. I can see the accent on the A,

0:09:13 > 0:09:15so it probably is. The other two are Latin.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20Erm, Salvator Mundi is saviour of the world.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23Ecce Homo is behold the man.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29I know Ecce Homo's been used.

0:09:31 > 0:09:35But then so has Salvator Mundi. I'm going to guess Ecce Homo.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38- Excellent. You're right. Well done! - HE LAUGHS

0:09:38 > 0:09:40I know how much that meant to you. Well done.

0:09:40 > 0:09:44OK, CJ, if you get this wrong, you're knocked out.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47In the 1860s, which French artist painted several versions

0:09:47 > 0:09:51of the execution of Emperor Maximilian of Mexico?

0:10:01 > 0:10:04Well, I really don't know this one, either. I mean...

0:10:05 > 0:10:07I mean, Delacroix's the one I know least about.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10I know some of his paintings.

0:10:10 > 0:10:14But I know quite a bit about the other two and I don't recognise this.

0:10:14 > 0:10:21But it could just be an episode that I just have passed over.

0:10:22 > 0:10:26Hm. No, I don't know this, so I'll just go for Delacroix.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30It's not Delacroix, it's Manet.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33Manet is the answer, CJ, so you're knocked out by Andy.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36Well done to you, Andy! Good work!

0:10:36 > 0:10:40The Latin and the librarianship came in nicely there.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43So you will be in the final round. Please rejoin your teams.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48So, Richard, it's going to plan.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51It's not often I say that at this stage, either.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53If there was a plan, it would be going to it, yes.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56Any pitfalls ahead? Any worries for you?

0:10:56 > 0:11:00- Plenty.- OK. As it stands, you've lost no brains

0:11:00 > 0:11:05and the Eggheads have lost two! The next subject is Sport.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07- Is that the pitfall? - It's one of them.

0:11:07 > 0:11:11- But I'll do Sport.- OK, Richard. Against which Egghead?

0:11:11 > 0:11:14- Er...- Kevin, Pat or Daphne?

0:11:14 > 0:11:16I'll try Daphne, please.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18I was hoping you wouldn't.

0:11:18 > 0:11:22So Richard from The 42s against Daphne from the Eggheads.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24Please go to the question room.

0:11:25 > 0:11:30- So, Richard, you're a big quizzer, as well?- An occasional quizzer.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33But I was told that you got married very recently,

0:11:33 > 0:11:37- for which congratulations.- Thank you.- And your wife is on the team.

0:11:37 > 0:11:40And you had a quiz at the wedding.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43That's absolutely right. It was just a pity that all the teams cheated.

0:11:43 > 0:11:47- Oh, did they? Were they using their mobiles?- Yes, absolutely.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49OK, Richard, onto the quiz. Sport.

0:11:49 > 0:11:53- And you can choose the first or second set.- I'll go first, please.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59And here is your question. Graeme Smith is most associated with

0:11:59 > 0:12:03performing which role for the South African cricket team?

0:12:07 > 0:12:10I think he's also the captain

0:12:10 > 0:12:15and I'm pretty sure he's an opening batsman.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18Opening batsman is correct.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Daphne, in June 2010,

0:12:21 > 0:12:25Avram Grant became the manager of which football team?

0:12:31 > 0:12:36Oh, come on, not football. Anything but. Erm...

0:12:38 > 0:12:41West Ham United.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43West Ham United is the right answer.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46You always get it right when you don't know! I don't understand it!

0:12:46 > 0:12:53In 1977, John Lloyd reached the final of which tennis grand slam?

0:13:02 > 0:13:04This is clearly going to be a guess,

0:13:04 > 0:13:10but he was...known as more of a serve and volleyer,

0:13:10 > 0:13:13so I'm going to rule out the French Open.

0:13:13 > 0:13:18And I'm going to guess the US Open.

0:13:19 > 0:13:23- CJ will tell us.- I'm afraid he was runner-up to Vitas Gerulaitis

0:13:23 > 0:13:27- at the Australian Open. - Australian Open is the answer.

0:13:27 > 0:13:31Daphne, your question. In which sport have Karen Pickering

0:13:31 > 0:13:34and Fran Halsall represented Great Britain?

0:13:37 > 0:13:40- Swimming.- Swimming is the right answer. Well done.

0:13:40 > 0:13:44She's taken the lead, Richard. You need this one right

0:13:44 > 0:13:47or you've been knocked out by Miss Marple over here.

0:13:47 > 0:13:51She comes over so unassuming and then solves the crime every time.

0:13:52 > 0:13:57Which sporting event was won by Helio Castroneves

0:13:57 > 0:14:01in 2001, 2002 and 2009?

0:14:10 > 0:14:15Well, I think I'm going to exclude the Indianapolis 500

0:14:15 > 0:14:17for no very good reason at all.

0:14:17 > 0:14:23I don't know the name as a marathon runner, though he probably is.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26So I'm driven to say the Giro d'Italia.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29- You have driven in the wrong direction.- I thought so.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32- It actually was the Indianapolis 500.- Oh!

0:14:32 > 0:14:35So, Richard, there we are. The first bit of bad luck for your team.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38You've been knocked out. Daphne is in the final, you are not.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41Please return to us here in the studio.

0:14:43 > 0:14:47So as it stands, the challengers have lost a brain from the final,

0:14:47 > 0:14:51the Eggheads have lost two brains, and the last subject is History.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54So who takes this?

0:14:54 > 0:14:57- Carole or Graham? - It's got to be you, Carole.- Yeah.

0:14:57 > 0:15:01- Carole, who do you want to play against?- Erm, Pat.

0:15:01 > 0:15:06- Yes, Pat.- OK. So Carole from The 42s against Pat.

0:15:06 > 0:15:10To ensure there's no conferring, please go to the question room.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15Carole, many congratulations to you on your recent quizzy marriage

0:15:15 > 0:15:17- to Richard. - Thank you very much.- Very good.

0:15:17 > 0:15:21So it's History and it's three questions, multiple choice.

0:15:21 > 0:15:25- You can choose the first or the second set.- I'll go first, please.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30Here we go, Carole. Best of luck.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33Who led a trip to the Antarctic in the ship Nimrod?

0:15:40 > 0:15:43I don't think it was Francis Drake.

0:15:43 > 0:15:50Er... I'm...going to go for Ernest Shackleton.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55- Is she right, Richard?- I think so, yes.- You're right. Well done.

0:15:55 > 0:16:00Pat, the Schola Armaturarum in Pompeii

0:16:00 > 0:16:02was used for what purpose?

0:16:08 > 0:16:13- Schola Armaturarum. - S-C-H-O-L-A and then Armaturarum.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16Well, schola certainly suggests school

0:16:16 > 0:16:22and armaturarum suggests armed men, so...

0:16:23 > 0:16:27Grain. Coins. It certainly sounds like gladiator training.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29Erm...

0:16:29 > 0:16:32Yes, I think it's gladiator training.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35Gladiator training is the right answer.

0:16:35 > 0:16:40Carole, which country was formerly known as Bechuanaland?

0:16:43 > 0:16:48Bechuanaland is spelt B-E-C-H-U-A-N-A-L-A-N-D,

0:16:48 > 0:16:50as you'd expect.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52I don't think it's Brunei.

0:16:52 > 0:16:56And I don't think it's Belize. I think it's Botswana.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Correct! Good.

0:16:59 > 0:17:03Pat, which organisation was founded in 1940 in order to

0:17:03 > 0:17:07"set Europe ablaze" in the words of Winston Churchill?

0:17:13 > 0:17:15Set Europe ablaze?

0:17:16 > 0:17:18Hm.

0:17:18 > 0:17:24SOE I think is concerned with espionage and sabotage.

0:17:24 > 0:17:29I think it sent lots of operatives into deep cover into Europe.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Don't know anything about MI9.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35Could possibly be another branch of military intelligence.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38I don't think the SAS was solely focused on Europe,

0:17:38 > 0:17:41whereas most of the times I've heard references to SOE,

0:17:41 > 0:17:44it's involved with spies and saboteurs sent into Europe.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48- So I'll go for SOE. - SOE is the right answer.

0:17:49 > 0:17:53OK, so third question. Here it gets crucial, Carole.

0:17:53 > 0:17:57Get this right and you put Pat under pressure and he might just pop.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00What was the main language spoken in the Inca empire?

0:18:06 > 0:18:08Ah.

0:18:08 > 0:18:13I am going to have to guess this.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15And...

0:18:16 > 0:18:21..nothing has sprung out to me at all, like it can do sometimes,

0:18:21 > 0:18:25but I'm going to go straight down the middle for Quechua.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27Quechua.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31"Ketch-wa" Quechua. Doesn't really matter. You're right.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34- Well done. - THEY CLAP

0:18:34 > 0:18:40A good quizzing team here. Right, Pat, it's you on the cliff edge.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43In which town, now in Tanzania, did Henry Stanley

0:18:43 > 0:18:46meet Dr Livingstone in 1871?

0:18:51 > 0:18:55I think it's the location for the famous greeting.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59- I think it's Ujiji. - Ujiji is correct.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01Three points each, a perfect round for you both.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04We go now to sudden death, so it gets a bit harder.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07- I don't give you alternatives, OK? - OK.- Here we go.

0:19:07 > 0:19:12In which country did the 1757 Battle of Plassey take place?

0:19:14 > 0:19:17I'm going to say France.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22No, it was India. Forces of the British East India Company

0:19:22 > 0:19:25led by Robert Clive

0:19:25 > 0:19:29defeated the army of the Nawab at Bengal.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32That's the full story.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34Pat, this for the round.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37In which country are the Jelling Stones,

0:19:37 > 0:19:41raised in the 10th century by King Gorm the Old

0:19:41 > 0:19:44and his son Harald Bluetooth?

0:19:45 > 0:19:47I haven't heard of the stones

0:19:47 > 0:19:53but old Harald Bluetooth lives on in the name of the wireless technology

0:19:53 > 0:20:00and I think he's from the Danish royal family, so it's Denmark.

0:20:00 > 0:20:04The correct answer is Denmark, Pat. Well done, you got that round.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Carole, sorry. Knocked out, I'm afraid.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10If you both come back to us, we will play the final round.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15So, this is what we've been playing towards. It's the final round.

0:20:15 > 0:20:19It is General Knowledge but those who lost your head-to-heads

0:20:19 > 0:20:21won't be allowed to take part in this round.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24Which means Richard and Carole from The 42s

0:20:24 > 0:20:29and Judith and CJ from the Eggheads, please now leave the studio.

0:20:30 > 0:20:35Colin, Graham and Andy, you are playing to win The 42s £1,000.

0:20:35 > 0:20:39Pat, Kevin, Daphne, you're playing for something money can't buy,

0:20:39 > 0:20:41the Eggheads' reputation.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:20:44 > 0:20:48This time the questions are General Knowledge and you can confer.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51So, 42s, the question is, are your three brains

0:20:51 > 0:20:53better than the Eggheads' three?

0:20:53 > 0:20:57- And would you like to go first or second?- First please, Jeremy.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03So, good luck. First question for The 42s.

0:21:03 > 0:21:09In Greek mythology, who was killed when he flew too near the sun

0:21:09 > 0:21:11in a pair of wings made from feathers?

0:21:15 > 0:21:18Well, it's got to be Icarus.

0:21:18 > 0:21:22Icarus is the chap that went up there, yeah.

0:21:22 > 0:21:26Daedalos made the wings but Icarus flew and fell.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29Icarus is the right answer.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32Eggheads, here's your question.

0:21:32 > 0:21:36In German-speaking countries, what is a bahnhof?

0:21:39 > 0:21:41- Railway station?- Railway station.

0:21:41 > 0:21:44Bahnhof is the railway station.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46Railway station is quite right. One each.

0:21:46 > 0:21:50Back to you, 42s. Who wrote the music and lyrics

0:21:50 > 0:21:53for the musical based on Roald Dahl's Matilda,

0:21:53 > 0:21:56first performed by the RSC in 2010?

0:22:01 > 0:22:04I think it was Tim Minchin.

0:22:04 > 0:22:08I'm reasonably certain it was Tim Minchin, so unless you guys...

0:22:08 > 0:22:10- I'll go with Tim Minchin.- Yep.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12We'll go with Tim Minchin please, Jeremy.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15Tim Minchin is the right answer, well done.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19Very good. Eggheads, where is the Peninsula Hotel,

0:22:19 > 0:22:23which was once known as the finest hotel east of Suez?

0:22:27 > 0:22:31I thought it was a super-duper hotel in Hong Kong.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34I could be wrong. It could be on the Kuala Lumpur Peninsula.

0:22:36 > 0:22:40- I've no idea. - Shall we try Hong Kong?- Yeah.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Er, we're not sure, Jeremy, but we'll say Hong Kong.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Hong Kong is the right answer.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49Third question, 42s.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52Sometimes seen in the UK,

0:22:52 > 0:22:55the rough-legged is a type of which bird?

0:23:00 > 0:23:03I think that this is a buzzard.

0:23:03 > 0:23:07- Do you think so?- I would say it's definitely not a duck.

0:23:07 > 0:23:09It's not a skua, I shouldn't think.

0:23:09 > 0:23:13No, and I think there is a rough-legged buzzard.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16- Shall we go for buzzard? - Yes, please.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18Rough-legged buzzard please, Jeremy.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22Rough-legged buzzard is correct.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Very good.

0:23:24 > 0:23:28Eggheads, if you get this wrong, you've lost. Again.

0:23:28 > 0:23:32Capital letters, underlined, in bold.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34Brahms' so-called Double Concerto

0:23:34 > 0:23:39was written for an orchestra and which two solo instruments?

0:23:50 > 0:23:54- I thought of one of those before the choices came up.- So did I.

0:23:54 > 0:23:58- So, which one? The first one? - No.- No? Oh, right.

0:23:58 > 0:24:02- I was thinking violin and cello. - Oh, right.

0:24:02 > 0:24:07- But, this is only a tiny... - Yeah. I don't know.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10- How about Pat?- Pat?

0:24:10 > 0:24:14I don't know much about this. I don't like cello and harp.

0:24:14 > 0:24:18I really can't choose between the two, the piano and the violin.

0:24:18 > 0:24:22If you have a preference for the violin and cello, I'd go with that.

0:24:24 > 0:24:28- You go.- You sure? - Yeah, I don't know it.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30Mine was a guess.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33On my head, this one, I think.

0:24:33 > 0:24:37It looks as though I'm possibly the only one with an inkling.

0:24:37 > 0:24:41I think it might be violin and cello. So violin and cello.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44If you're wrong, you've lost again.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46But you're right. Violin and cello is correct.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49OK. They are hard to shake off.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52So we go now to sudden death in the final round.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55It gets harder because I don't give you alternatives, as you know.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57Here's your first sudden death question.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00Which band released the albums Crime Of The Century

0:25:00 > 0:25:03and Crisis? What Crisis? in the 1970s?

0:25:03 > 0:25:07- Er, Supertramp, wasn't it? - I'm prepared to believe that.

0:25:07 > 0:25:11- I'll believe that.- We'll believe my friend here and say Supertramp.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14Supertramp is the right answer. Well done.

0:25:14 > 0:25:20OK, Eggheads, which word, associated with John Foster Dulles,

0:25:20 > 0:25:24describes the practice of pushing dangerous events

0:25:24 > 0:25:28to the verge of disaster for political gain?

0:25:28 > 0:25:32- Brinkmanship.- We are looking for just one word, aren't we?

0:25:32 > 0:25:36- Brinkmanship, isn't it? I can't think of anything else.- No.

0:25:36 > 0:25:41Erm, we'll go straight for brinkmanship, I think.

0:25:41 > 0:25:43Brinkmanship is correct. Very good.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46Colin, Graham and Andy, here's your question, sudden death.

0:25:46 > 0:25:51The French city of Bordeaux is in which department?

0:25:52 > 0:25:54I know there's an area called Gironde.

0:25:54 > 0:25:58But I don't know if that's the name of a department or not.

0:25:58 > 0:26:02- It's the only word I can think of. - Gironde, yeah. OK.

0:26:02 > 0:26:05- Was it Gironde or Girone? - I'm not really certain.

0:26:05 > 0:26:09We'll try the word Gironde.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12The correct answer is Gironde.

0:26:12 > 0:26:16- Well played!- Well done! - Well played! Well played!

0:26:16 > 0:26:20You are keeping at them, which is what you have to do.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Eggheads, which order of animals has a name meaning ten legs

0:26:23 > 0:26:25and includes lobsters and crabs?

0:26:25 > 0:26:30- Decapods.- Decapods, I think. - Yeah.- Yeah.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32Er, they're decapods.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35Decapods is right. Well done.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37Back to you, 42s.

0:26:37 > 0:26:43What name was given to the mythical monster said to inhabit Loch Morar

0:26:43 > 0:26:46in the Highlands of Scotland? Morar. M-O-R-A-R.

0:26:48 > 0:26:51- Struggling.- What is the name that means water horse?

0:26:53 > 0:26:56What would water horse be in Gaelic? Anybody know?

0:26:56 > 0:26:58I don't know. Erm...

0:26:58 > 0:27:02I've got this idea in the back of my head it might begin with M,

0:27:02 > 0:27:05but that might be just because it's Loch Morar.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08Well, it could be the Moran, or something.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10It could be "of the loch", you know?

0:27:10 > 0:27:14It might be something like Mona, or Mora.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18- It's got to be a guess, hasn't it? - Yep.

0:27:18 > 0:27:23- Shall we go for Mona? - Mona. Mona, Jeremy?

0:27:23 > 0:27:25It's not Mona. Eggheads, do you know?

0:27:25 > 0:27:28- It's Morag.- Morag.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31You were so close! I thought if you get to Morag, you'll say it.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35So you're wrong. So Eggheads, Morag is the answer.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39That means if you get this question right, you take the contest.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41What is the surname of Antony,

0:27:41 > 0:27:44in the musical group Antony And The Johnsons?

0:27:44 > 0:27:47- He's Antony Hegarty. - Hegarty, isn't he?

0:27:47 > 0:27:50- He's from Chichester or somewhere. - Yeah. Antony Hegarty.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53He is Antony Hegarty.

0:27:53 > 0:27:58- You say Hegarty. Are they right? Do you know this one?- Yes, I think so.

0:27:58 > 0:28:02You're right, Eggheads. Hegarty. Congratulations, you've won.

0:28:07 > 0:28:11What a contest! You ran them very close.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14There's an awful lot of learning there, and quiz ability,

0:28:14 > 0:28:16which can be different things.

0:28:16 > 0:28:22- Brilliantly done, and brilliant to have them, yes?- Good answering.

0:28:22 > 0:28:26Commiserations. The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29They reign supreme over quizland once again.

0:28:29 > 0:28:35You won't be going home with the £1,000, so the money rolls over.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?

0:28:38 > 0:28:42Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains

0:28:42 > 0:28:46to defeat the Eggheads. £2,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye.
