0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:12 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20The 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 > 0:00:31attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:35Their quiz pedigree is well known, as they've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows,
0:00:35 > 0:00:36they are the Eggheads!
0:00:36 > 0:00:40And challenging our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:40 > 0:00:41are All The King's Men.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44This team of friends all attend King's College, London,
0:00:44 > 0:00:47and take their name from the university's a cappella singing group.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Let's meet them.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52Hi, I'm Cameron, I'm 19 and I'm a law student.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Hello, I'm Flo, I'm 20 and I'm a law student.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hello, I'm Alex, I'm 20 and I'm a history student.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01Hello, I'm Chris, I'm 19 and I'm a politics student.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04Hello, I'm Tom, I'm 20 and I study dentistry.
0:01:04 > 0:01:10- Cameron and team, welcome.- Hi. - And a cappella means without accompaniment.- Yes, that's right.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14And you sing, then, along with your studies, do you?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Yeah, well, I mean, most of us study other subjects apart from music,
0:01:17 > 0:01:22and we sing the a cappella along with our studies, so we rehearse about three times a week.
0:01:22 > 0:01:27Usually, we have concerts and gigs at various points in the country.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30One of the great treats for all of us is when we have music groups competing,
0:01:30 > 0:01:32so if you can show us what you do, we'd love that.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35THEY START
0:01:36 > 0:01:40# I've been really trying, baby
0:01:41 > 0:01:44# Trying to hold back this feeling
0:01:44 > 0:01:47# For so long
0:01:47 > 0:01:51# And if you feel like I feel, sugar
0:01:51 > 0:01:55# Come on, oh, come on
0:01:56 > 0:02:00# Let's get it on
0:02:00 > 0:02:02# Ooh-ooh-ooh
0:02:02 > 0:02:05# Let's get it on
0:02:05 > 0:02:08# If you believe in love
0:02:08 > 0:02:13# Let's get it on! #
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Great! Wonderful.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Yeah! Well, shall we get it on, then?
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:25 > 0:02:30I feel I'm lowering the tone by starting the quiz after that beautiful piece of music,
0:02:30 > 0:02:33but I can tell All The King's Men that the Eggheads have won the last five games.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37So £6,000 says you can't beat them today. You want to try?
0:02:37 > 0:02:38Go for it!
0:02:38 > 0:02:41The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Politics.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44- Who wants this?- Chris?
0:02:44 > 0:02:47- It's got to be him. - Our politics student.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51Fantastic! You've got a politics student. Against which Egghead?
0:02:51 > 0:02:53- What do we think?- That's a tough one. - I don't know.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Do you have any ideas?
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Do we...?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00I don't know. I quite fancy the look of Daphne.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- OK.- What do you think?
0:03:03 > 0:03:05- Yeah, why not? - Daphne would be lovely.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09Daphne on Politics. What era of politics is your speciality, Daphne?
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Er...
0:03:11 > 0:03:15- Pre-war?- I don't really like politics at all!
0:03:15 > 0:03:21- And I'm no good at American politics. - Sounds ideal, doesn't she?
0:03:21 > 0:03:26- Let's hope!- So, Chris from All The King's Men against Daphne from the Eggheads on Politics.
0:03:26 > 0:03:31And just to ensure there's no conferring, would you take your positions in the Question Room?
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Chris, I can't help but notice you're all wearing the same T-shirt.
0:03:35 > 0:03:40We are indeed. It's our T-shirt... We just came off a USA tour.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43We were going up the East Coast and it's our T-shirt from there.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46And the significance of Humpty Dumpty having banged his head there?
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Well, we're All The King's Men,
0:03:48 > 0:03:51and of course all the king's horses and all the king's men... Humpty Dumpty...
0:03:51 > 0:03:56- he fell off the wall, he's our mascot.- Of course.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58I feel silly now, having asked. I understand.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01OK, Politics, three multiple-choice questions for you.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05If you win the round, you're in the final. If you lose, you are not. Simple as that!
0:04:05 > 0:04:08- Do you want to go first or second? - I'd like to go first, please.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Good luck, Chris, here we go.
0:04:12 > 0:04:17Banff and Buchan and Airdrie and Shotts are parliamentary constituencies
0:04:17 > 0:04:19in which country of the UK?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25So one is called Banff and Buchan and the other is Airdrie and Shotts.
0:04:25 > 0:04:30Well, they don't sound like Welsh names...
0:04:30 > 0:04:33I don't think.
0:04:33 > 0:04:34Banff and Buchan, Airdrie and Shotts...
0:04:34 > 0:04:38I don't know. They don't strike me as Scottish names...
0:04:38 > 0:04:42I don't think, I'm thinking sort of Dunfermline and things like that
0:04:42 > 0:04:46are more Scottish. I'm going to have to go with Northern Ireland.
0:04:47 > 0:04:52- No, it's not Northern Ireland. It's Scotland.- Ah!
0:04:52 > 0:04:53Sorry, you got that wrong.
0:04:55 > 0:05:00OK, Daphne, what name was given to the military tactics employed by American forces
0:05:00 > 0:05:02during the Iraq War of 2003?
0:05:08 > 0:05:11That was Shock and Awe.
0:05:11 > 0:05:12Shock and Awe is right.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14So, all right, Chris,
0:05:14 > 0:05:16we've found ourselves in a difficult spot
0:05:16 > 0:05:17after one question.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21- She has stolen a march on you. - I'm on the back foot here.
0:05:21 > 0:05:27Here's your question. Who was US President at the time of the Queen's Silver Jubilee celebrations
0:05:27 > 0:05:28in June 1977?
0:05:32 > 0:05:36I'm no good... no good on US Presidents.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40I'm no good on the order of US Presidents.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44I'm just going to have to take a guess, I think...
0:05:44 > 0:05:46So...
0:05:47 > 0:05:50I'm going to have to take a guess and say...
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Nixon, Richard Nixon.
0:05:52 > 0:05:53Now, Nixon fell in Watergate,
0:05:53 > 0:05:56and, Daphne, although you don't like your American Presidents,
0:05:56 > 0:05:59you can tell us what year he resigned?
0:05:59 > 0:06:00'73.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02'74, I think.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04It's Ronald Reagan.
0:06:04 > 0:06:09No, no, it's not. Because Gerald Ford takes over from Nixon,
0:06:09 > 0:06:11'76, Carter beats Ford in the election.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Jimmy Carter is the right answer.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- No way!- If it's any consolation, Daphne would have got that wrong.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18So, Reagan in '77, Daphne!
0:06:18 > 0:06:21My goodness, we've discovered a gap in your knowledge.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23I wasn't thinking properly.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26You were too busy in 1977 listening to the Sex Pistols!
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Oh, yes, yes.
0:06:28 > 0:06:29Here's your question.
0:06:29 > 0:06:36In a Budget speech, which Chancellor likened himself to Desert Orchid saying,
0:06:36 > 0:06:40"We are both greys, vast sums of money are riding on our performance,
0:06:40 > 0:06:43"the opposition hopes we shall fall at the first fence
0:06:43 > 0:06:44"and we are both carrying too much weight."
0:06:52 > 0:06:53Oh!
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Well, it could apply to all three of them.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Er...
0:06:57 > 0:07:00who would be...?
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Norman Lamont.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05How did you get to that?
0:07:05 > 0:07:10I just thought he was a bit wittier than Geoffrey Howe.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14Goodness me, that's a race of slow horses, isn't it?
0:07:14 > 0:07:16To continue the analogy...
0:07:16 > 0:07:19- Norman Lamont is the right answer. Well done.- Oh!
0:07:19 > 0:07:22So it does suggest Norman Lamont. Daphne, after two questions,
0:07:22 > 0:07:26you have got 2 points, and, Chris, I'm sorry, you got none, so there's no way back.
0:07:26 > 0:07:31- So you've been knocked out by Miss Marple over here!- No-one lovelier to be knocked out by.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34That's certainly true. Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Daphne, you've knocked out a brilliant singer.
0:07:39 > 0:07:45He is! It's wonderful. When they started, the hairs on the back on my neck stood up, it was that good.
0:07:45 > 0:07:52- Thank you.- That's the trouble. They show no mercy. She praises the music and then knocks you out.
0:07:52 > 0:07:57The Eggheads have lost no brains, you've lost one. And the next subject is Music.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59This has to be good, guys.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- What about you, Flo?- You know what? I will go for it.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07- I will try my best. - Flo, against which Egghead, Flo?
0:08:07 > 0:08:09- I don't know...- Kevin?
0:08:09 > 0:08:14- I don't know.- I reckon...because he's quite strong in general. Maybe this can be a weak link.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16- Do you think?- I think that'll be a good move.- Tactical play.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19- OK?- Take Kevin.- Kevin?
0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Kevin.- Wow, right.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23Flo against Kevin.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27This could be a clash, because they've got music in their fingertips.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30As long as it stays there and not in their brain, I'll be all right!
0:08:30 > 0:08:32That's fair enough.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35To ensure there's no conferring, take your positions in the Question Room.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39- So what are you studying, Flo? - I study law.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41So the music is a hobby?
0:08:41 > 0:08:46I think the plan is to be a barrister by day and a singer by night.
0:08:46 > 0:08:51All right. Good plan. So three questions, multiple-choice, the subject Music.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Flo, you can choose the first or second set.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Can I have the second set, please?
0:08:57 > 0:09:00You can. So we go to Kevin with the first question.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04What is the title of the 1966 UK hit single for Cilla Black
0:09:04 > 0:09:07that begins with the line "What's it all about?"?
0:09:10 > 0:09:15Various people covered this from the film Alfie with Michael Caine.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17It's Alfie.
0:09:17 > 0:09:18Alfie is correct.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21Flo, your question.
0:09:21 > 0:09:27Brass In Pocket was a UK number one single in 1980 for which group?
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Right...
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Brass In Pocket was a hit...
0:09:35 > 0:09:40I cannot lie. I have absolutely no idea whatsoever.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44Er...but for some reason it just seems to me
0:09:44 > 0:09:46that it wouldn't be Blondie.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48So I feel like it's between Hot Chocolate and the Pretenders.
0:09:48 > 0:09:52Er...and I'm going to go with the Pretenders.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54I'm so glad you did, because you're right. Well done.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56You haven't heard that song?
0:09:56 > 0:09:57I don't think I have,
0:09:57 > 0:09:59- or maybe I have subliminally. - Before your time.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Yes, a bit before I was born.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04So 1 point each. Kevin, back to you.
0:10:04 > 0:10:12Willow who had a UK top ten hit at the age of 10 with Whip My Hair is the daughter of which actor?
0:10:16 > 0:10:19Mmm...yes. I'm not going to say anything.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23- She's the daughter of Will Smith. - Can you hum this one, Whip My Hair?
0:10:23 > 0:10:27- No.- Will Smith is the right answer.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33OK, Flo, he's good on Music even though I don't know... Can you play any instruments, Kevin, or not?
0:10:33 > 0:10:39No, when I was a kid at the age of about 7 or 8, I did have piano lessons.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43I was told at the time I wasn't too bad, but I didn't keep it up.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46So it's one of those regrets. I think they've done surveys
0:10:46 > 0:10:50where probably the one thing that most people who don't do it, regret
0:10:50 > 0:10:54- is not being able to play a musical instrument.- I'm with you on that.
0:10:54 > 0:11:00Flo, Aston Merrygold, Marvin Humes, Jonathan JB Gill and Oritse Williams
0:11:00 > 0:11:04are the four original members of which band, Flo?
0:11:07 > 0:11:09I happen to know this question,
0:11:09 > 0:11:11simply because I very much love this band.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14And, in fact, one of them did go to King's
0:11:14 > 0:11:18and one of them went very close to my own school at home,
0:11:18 > 0:11:20and the answer is JLS.
0:11:20 > 0:11:25Well done! JLS it is. Good stuff. Third question, Kevin.
0:11:25 > 0:11:30Which musical features the songs Movies Were Movies and I Won't Send Roses?
0:11:35 > 0:11:36Mmm...
0:11:38 > 0:11:43I'm having a... I've got an obvious answer, but I'm just trying to...
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Movies Were Movies and I Won't Send Roses?
0:11:46 > 0:11:49They don't sound at all Rocky Horrorish...
0:11:52 > 0:11:54My first thought was Mack And Mabel
0:11:54 > 0:11:58which is one that I have actually seen but not for a long, long time.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02But it's possible they could be from Chicago.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Movies Were Movies... No, I'm going...
0:12:07 > 0:12:12Mack Sennett was a film-maker, Mabel Normand was a film star,
0:12:12 > 0:12:14I'm going to go for Mack And Mabel.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18- Daphne will know this. - Yes, my favourite all-time musical.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20- Is it?- Yes.- I didn't know that.
0:12:20 > 0:12:25- Who's it by again?- Jerry Herman. - Jerry Herman.- Yes.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Mack And Mabel is the right answer, Kevin.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29OK, Flo,
0:12:29 > 0:12:30you've got to get this one right.
0:12:30 > 0:12:35What nickname is given to Beethoven's Piano Trio in B Flat Major
0:12:35 > 0:12:38after the man to whom it is dedicated?
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Er...
0:12:45 > 0:12:50once again, I must confess, I do not actually know the answer.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Er...
0:12:52 > 0:12:59but I feel like Viscount Trio rings some sort of bell.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02So I think I will go with that.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06Viscount Trio... Anyone in your side know? Are you musicians?
0:13:06 > 0:13:08I think it's Archduke.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Archduke is the right answer, Flo, after the Archduke of Austria...
0:13:12 > 0:13:15- Right. - Rudolf of Austria, his name was.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17I'm sorry about that.
0:13:17 > 0:13:23I had really great hopes you were going to take him to Sudden Death, but it hasn't happened.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Kevin is in the final and you're not.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Please, come back and rejoin your teams.
0:13:29 > 0:13:35Bad luck, Flo. As it stands, the challengers have lost two brains from the final round.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Eggheads have lost no brains so far. The next subject is Science.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42- Our dentist, Tom. - That's our scientist there.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Against whom, Tom?
0:13:44 > 0:13:47Which Egghead looks rocky?
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- I'd feel quite comfortable with that. - Sorry?
0:13:50 > 0:13:52- I'd feel quite comfortable with... - Who, sorry?- Barry.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55Barry, we'll take Barry.
0:13:55 > 0:14:00- Barry, at the end, keeping your own counsel a bit. - That makes a change for me.
0:14:00 > 0:14:05So Tom from All The King's Men versus Barry from the Eggheads.
0:14:05 > 0:14:06Take your positions in the Question Room.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Tom, you're studying dentistry but you sing as well.
0:14:10 > 0:14:14Yeah, it's something I've been doing since I was really young.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18- The good thing with dentistry is it gave me the opportunity to stick with what I love doing.- OK.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22- You can sing if you win this round. - OK.- You're up against Barry.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25Barry, you're pretty good on Science. Three questions, multiple-choice,
0:14:25 > 0:14:30- and, Tom, you can choose the first or second set of questions. - I'll go second, please.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Barry, your first question. What name is given to the part of vision
0:14:36 > 0:14:40that detects objects outside the direct line of vision?
0:14:44 > 0:14:47Well, objects on the outside of vision are on the sides
0:14:47 > 0:14:49and that's peripheral.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52Peripheral is the right answer.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Over to you, Tom.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Smelting is a process used in the extraction of what?
0:14:59 > 0:15:02I definitely know it's not water.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05It rings bells with GCSE and A-level.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10I can't remember if it's iron or aluminium.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Don't think it's oil. I'm going to go with metal.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Metal is right. Well done.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22- A bit of dentistry application there probably?- Well, sort of.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Barry...
0:15:24 > 0:15:29if something is described as being vitreous, what substance does it resemble?
0:15:32 > 0:15:34It's certainly not wax or muscle,
0:15:34 > 0:15:38but vitreous is the term often used to describe glassy objects,
0:15:38 > 0:15:39so the answer is glass.
0:15:41 > 0:15:42Glass is right.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48Tom, which creatures belong to the order Coleoptera?
0:15:50 > 0:15:54I don't...I don't know... but I don't think it's owls.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58I don't know much about beetles,
0:15:58 > 0:16:03so I'm just going to go for a complete guess and go with deer.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07- Anyone on your side know? - I think it might be beetles.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10- It is beetles, Tom. Sorry.- Yeah.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15So, Barry, if you get this one right, you're in the final as well.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19Phylloquinone is another name for which vitamin?
0:16:23 > 0:16:27Mmm...that's an interesting one. It's not vitamin A1.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30I believe that is retinol.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32And I don't think it's D1.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35I think it's vitamin K1.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Eggheads playing well. You've got it right.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40Vitamin K1 it is, so you're in the final too.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44Have you Eggheads got a question wrong yet? You're playing very well.
0:16:44 > 0:16:45Barry, you're in the final.
0:16:45 > 0:16:51- Tom, you've been knocked out.- Yeah. - Can't please both of you. Come back to us and we'll play the next round.
0:16:52 > 0:16:58- Cameron, what happens now?- Alex and I have both got similar knowledge,
0:16:58 > 0:17:03but Alex is quite a strong sports mind as such, so we're hoping for Sport.
0:17:03 > 0:17:09- Other ones may be a bit tricky, but we'll give it a go.- OK, last round now before the final.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Sport! How about that?
0:17:11 > 0:17:13I'll take that!
0:17:13 > 0:17:17- Wonderful!- CJ, did we say...? CJ, please.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21Right, Alex on Sport from All The King's Men
0:17:21 > 0:17:24against CJ! He always loves to be picked, from the Eggheads.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27And to ensure there's no conferring, please go to the Question Room.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31So you wanted Sport and you got it, Alex.
0:17:31 > 0:17:35I know. Lucky man! I'm quite happy about that. We'll see how it goes.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Your strongest areas?
0:17:37 > 0:17:41Mainly sort of team sports. I'm quite into sort of football, rugby, that kind of thing.
0:17:41 > 0:17:47I'm not so hot on boxing. That's my one real fear. Don't want boxing to come up.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51- CJ, how are you on boxing? - Fairly useless, but the same as pretty much every other sport!
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- But you're good on snooker and tennis.- And that's it!
0:17:54 > 0:17:58- You ever seen a good tennis match? - I've never been to a tennis match.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Oh! For a second, I thought you actually followed the sport.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04I follow it, but I don't go and watch it.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06OK.
0:18:06 > 0:18:13It's not normal, that's the thing, all of that quizzy stuff, it's not normal life.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15Alex, do you want to go first or second?
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Can I go second, please?
0:18:19 > 0:18:22OK, CJ, here is your first question.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26For what does the letter M stand in the name of the cricket ground known as the MCG?
0:18:30 > 0:18:33I think the MCG is the Melbourne Cricket Ground
0:18:33 > 0:18:35so I'll go for Melbourne.
0:18:35 > 0:18:36Melbourne is quite right.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38You got it.
0:18:38 > 0:18:39Now, Alex, your question.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43In which country was the footballer Carlos Tevez born?
0:18:47 > 0:18:48Argentina.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52You didn't even need any time to think about it.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55Yeah, I knew before the answers came up,
0:18:55 > 0:18:57so pretty pleased when Argentina came up.
0:18:57 > 0:19:02- OK. Be funny if it wasn't right, wouldn't it?- I'd be not happy!
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Argentina is right, of course.
0:19:05 > 0:19:09Well done. 1 point each. See if we can get you in the final here, Alex.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11All right, CJ.
0:19:11 > 0:19:16To the nearest second, what is Sebastian Coe's personal best time for the 800 metres?
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Well, not 1 52, that's too slow.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34I mean, it should be 1 42. Er...
0:19:34 > 0:19:411 32 is two laps in about 45, 46 seconds which is fast.
0:19:41 > 0:19:46I think the world record is about 43 seconds for the 400 metres,
0:19:46 > 0:19:49so he can't do two laps in just over that time, surely?
0:19:49 > 0:19:51And they're fairly slow when they set off.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54So I'll go for 1 minute 42 seconds.
0:19:54 > 0:20:00Very impressive. You're quite right. 1981 it was. 1 minute 42 seconds
0:20:00 > 0:20:02for Sebastian, now Lord Coe.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06OK, Alex... see how you do with this one.
0:20:06 > 0:20:12The tennis player Arantxa Sanchez Vicario was victorious in the ladies singles tournament
0:20:12 > 0:20:15at the French Open and which other Grand Slam event?
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Well, er...
0:20:22 > 0:20:25I honestly have absolutely no idea.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Er...
0:20:27 > 0:20:31if she won the French Open, that's clay,
0:20:31 > 0:20:34so obviously fairly mobile.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41I'm just going to go shot in the dark, the middle one,
0:20:41 > 0:20:43- Australian Open. - CJ, what do you think?
0:20:43 > 0:20:47I don't know. It's certainly not Wimbledon. Er...
0:20:47 > 0:20:50I knew she won the French. I don't know this. I'd guess the US.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54Well, she won the French in 1989, 1994 and 1998.
0:20:54 > 0:21:00And in 1994 she won, as CJ says, the US Open, Alex!
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Oh, dearie me!
0:21:02 > 0:21:08You've fallen behind and Cameron is going to be all alone if CJ gets this one right.
0:21:08 > 0:21:13Which Rugby Union player scored a hat-trick of tries on his debut for England
0:21:13 > 0:21:16in a 1989 match against Romania?
0:21:21 > 0:21:22I don't know.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25I've got absolutely no idea.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31One of them is jumping out and suggesting itself
0:21:31 > 0:21:33but I've no idea why.
0:21:33 > 0:21:38But I'm wondering if that's something he did in the World Cup. Er...
0:21:39 > 0:21:40'89...
0:21:42 > 0:21:45That could be about the time Will Carling started.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53I mean, Jeremy Guscott's the name that's jumping out at me,
0:21:53 > 0:21:54but I'm just wondering
0:21:54 > 0:21:57if that's because I've heard his name in a quiz question,
0:21:57 > 0:21:59something to do with the World Cup....
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Actually, maybe '89's a little late for Will Carling...
0:22:04 > 0:22:07maybe he was earlier. I don't know. I'll try Jeremy Guscott.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10You Eggheads are not getting anything wrong at the moment.
0:22:10 > 0:22:15Jeremy Guscott is the right answer, so 3 out of 3 again! Alex, sorry.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18You slipped up, you're not in the final either!
0:22:18 > 0:22:24You've been knocked out. If you both come back to the studio, we will play the final round.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30Well, the Eggheads have not got a question wrong today so far.
0:22:30 > 0:22:36That is quite unusual even for them. So you've been caught in a bit of a perfect storm here, guys.
0:22:36 > 0:22:41This is what we've been playing towards. It is time for the final round which is General Knowledge.
0:22:41 > 0:22:46But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51So, Flo, Alex, Chris and Tom, all from All The King's Men,
0:22:51 > 0:22:53would you please now leave the studio?
0:22:55 > 0:22:59Cameron, you are playing to win All The King's Men £6,000.
0:22:59 > 0:23:04Kevin, CJ, Daphne, Chris and Barry, you're playing for something that money can't buy...
0:23:04 > 0:23:06the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:08 > 0:23:13This time, the questions are all General Knowledge. You are allowed to confer.
0:23:13 > 0:23:18So, Cameron, the question is, is your one brain capable of defeating the Eggheads' five?
0:23:18 > 0:23:20And it can be done. Good luck to you.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23- Thank you.- Would you like to go first or second?
0:23:23 > 0:23:24I think I'll go first.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29Cameron, your question.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33The region once known as Bactria is on which continent?
0:23:38 > 0:23:43- Is it possible to ask how you spell that?- Of course it is. B-A-C-T-R-I-A.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47Well, I mean, I studied Spanish for a while
0:23:47 > 0:23:50and wouldn't say it's particularly Hispanic.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Er...
0:23:53 > 0:23:55I...
0:23:55 > 0:23:57I don't think it sounds Asian.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00Er...so I think I'll go with Africa.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05- Whereabouts, Eggheads?- Afghanistan.
0:24:05 > 0:24:11Afghanistan. Asia. Asia is the answer. OK, Eggheads,
0:24:11 > 0:24:15so far you have not got a question wrong. It's getting a bit annoying.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19What is the chief setting for the 1930s British film comedy Oh, Mr Porter?
0:24:22 > 0:24:26- I think we all know this one, don't we?- We do.- We do indeed.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29It's Will Hay, Graham Moffatt, Moore Marriot...
0:24:30 > 0:24:34It's set on the Southern Railway of Northern Ireland,
0:24:34 > 0:24:37which is completely fictional, a station called Buggleskelly,
0:24:37 > 0:24:38it's a railway station.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Railway station is right. Another correct question.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Not all teams have to contend with this,
0:24:44 > 0:24:50with them on this sizzling form, you know. You've been rather unlucky today. Here's your question.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54The CSP is the professional body and trade union for which professionals in the UK?
0:25:02 > 0:25:05I honestly don't know.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09I'm not very good at these acronyms.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13I wouldn't have said it's paediatricians
0:25:13 > 0:25:16because I'd have said that they fall under
0:25:16 > 0:25:20a sort of greater body like the BMA or some such.
0:25:20 > 0:25:26Plumbers seems to quite a big entity as it were in the UK...
0:25:26 > 0:25:29the same, I think physiotherapists might fall under...
0:25:29 > 0:25:33a greater sort of title of kind of sports therapy as well.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35So I think I'll go with plumbers.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40It's the Chartered Society of Physiotherapists.
0:25:40 > 0:25:44- Oh, that is embarrassing.- No, it's not. It's a difficult one to guess.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47- I worked as a physiotherapist for a bit.- You worked as a physiotherapist?
0:25:47 > 0:25:49- It's embarrassing.- I see that now.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55All right, Eggheads, if you get this right... Why am I saying if?
0:25:55 > 0:26:01If you get this right, you've taken the contest. If you get it wrong, we'll have a moment of joy.
0:26:01 > 0:26:07For which invention did Peter Durand receive a patent in 1810?
0:26:11 > 0:26:14It's not sliced bread.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17Sliced bread is supposed to have been invented in the 1920s.
0:26:17 > 0:26:21The zip fastener was either Gideon Sundback
0:26:21 > 0:26:24or Whitcomb Judson, depending on which story you believe,
0:26:24 > 0:26:27- so of those...- The name rings a bell with me with tin can.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30There was tinned food around in the later Napoleonic period.
0:26:30 > 0:26:35The one who's often cited as being the inventor of the tin can
0:26:35 > 0:26:38was Nicholas Appert, but he probably didn't get a patent for it.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40- Yeah.- Yes.
0:26:40 > 0:26:45I think I have read this somewhere that Durand was the tin can.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49- I don't think it's either of the others.- The date is right.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52- It is, the date's right. - Cos they used lead solder
0:26:52 > 0:26:54and a lot of people got lead poisoning.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56- We going on tin can?- Yeah.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58It's the tin can, Jeremy.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Your answer is tin can.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03Just reflecting on the fact that this wonderful team came,
0:27:03 > 0:27:06and they gave us beautiful music
0:27:06 > 0:27:08and you've responded with a tin can.
0:27:10 > 0:27:15Amazingly, you have got every single question right in this programme.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Tin can is the correct answer. No way back for you, Cameron.
0:27:17 > 0:27:21I'm sorry. The Eggheads have won.
0:27:27 > 0:27:32Well, it's hot stuff there, you know. It's very hard to beat them at the best of times,
0:27:32 > 0:27:36- but I don't think it's possible when they're like this.- Definitely.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40- I hope this hasn't traumatised your team.- No, I think we'll just have to stick to music instead!
0:27:40 > 0:27:43Maybe just stay away from the pub quizzes!
0:27:43 > 0:27:46- OK.- Just go and entertain the people in the pub instead! We'll go and sing to them.
0:27:46 > 0:27:50You played a great game. It's very hard to win in this studio against this team,
0:27:50 > 0:27:52particularly when they do that!
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Commiserations to you. The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them,
0:27:55 > 0:27:58and their winning streak continues.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £6,000 so the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:02 > 0:28:07Eggheads, congratulations! Every single answer correct.
0:28:07 > 0:28:11Who will beat you? Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:11 > 0:28:15have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. £7,000 says they don't.
0:28:15 > 0:28:16Until then, goodbye.
