0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team
0:00:26 > 0:00:32of five quiz challengers attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:32 > 0:00:38Their pedigree is known. They've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows. They are the Eggheads.
0:00:38 > 0:00:44Taking on our quiz Goliaths today are Rodney's Trotters from Luton.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48This team of friends all trip the light fantastic at the same ballroom dancing classes
0:00:48 > 0:00:53and have named themselves in honour of their dance instructor, Rodney. Let's meet them.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57Hello. I'm John. I'm 63 and I'm a motor engineer.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01Hi. I'm Rosemary. I'm 53 and a receptionist.
0:01:01 > 0:01:07Hello. I'm Andrew. I'm 53 and I'm a finance process consultant.
0:01:07 > 0:01:13Hi. I'm Carol. I'm 56 and I'm a senior finance officer.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Hi. I'm Phil. I'm 57 and I'm a database administrator.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21John and team, welcome. Great to see you. It's a shame Rodney's not here.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25Yes, he's not good enough for our team. He's a good dancer.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- He's a good instructor, but he's not a quizzer.- Yes.- OK.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32- Do you quiz together? - Yes, we do, at weekends away.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36The club goes away to dance weekends in Bournemouth
0:01:36 > 0:01:39- and we do our quizzing then. - OK. Good luck in this contest.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43Every day, there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51So, Rodney's Trotters, the Eggheads have won the last nine games,
0:01:51 > 0:01:55which means £10,000 says you can't beat them today.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58First head-to-head is on the subject of Arts & Books.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02- Is that a good one? Who would like this?- That will be me.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06OK, very decisive, Carol. Against which Egghead?
0:02:06 > 0:02:11- You've got the full set. - I think Pat's doable on this.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15- Can we have Pat, please? - Pat, what do we know about your Arts and your Books?
0:02:15 > 0:02:20- I quite like paintings.- You never get anything out of this guy.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22What does that mean?
0:02:22 > 0:02:25So, Carol, from Rodney's Trotters, against Pat from the Eggheads.
0:02:25 > 0:02:30To ensure there's no conferring, take your positions in the Question Room.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Arts & Books and you get three multiple choice questions.
0:02:33 > 0:02:38- Carol, would you like the first or the second set? - I think I'll go first, please.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Here we go, and good luck to you.
0:02:43 > 0:02:48Great Uncle Bulgaria is seen as the head of which group of fictional characters?
0:02:51 > 0:02:56It's something that I have watched on television quite a few years ago.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00It definitely isn't the Borrowers. It isn't the Moomins.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- It's the Wombles.- The Wombles is the right answer, Carol.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07One point to you. Pat, here's your first question.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11What mode of dress is most associated with the artists
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Gilbert and George?
0:03:14 > 0:03:20I saw these chaps being interviewed recently.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24They both seemed to turn themselves out invariably in suits.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28With ties. So suits.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Suits is the right answer.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35Carol, found on antiques, picture frames and furniture,
0:03:35 > 0:03:38what type of finish is ormolu?
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Ormolu is usually on things like clocks and mirrors.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50So it definitely isn't distressed leather.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Or painted wood. It's gilded bronze.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57Well done, Carol. You're quite right. Gilded bronze it is.
0:03:59 > 0:04:05Pat, which broadcaster and former MP has written a series of books
0:04:05 > 0:04:08known collectively as the Oscar Wilde Murder Mysteries?
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Matthew Parris generally writes
0:04:17 > 0:04:20a political comment column in the Times.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Gyles Brandreth has been very busy.
0:04:22 > 0:04:27I think he wrote Something Exciting To Read On The Train.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31And he has also written a series of murders with the Oscar Wilde
0:04:31 > 0:04:33character weaved in.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35So it's Gyles Brandreth.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Gyles Brandreth is quite right. Well done. So two points each.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42Carol, here's your third question.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46The Djanogly Art Gallery is in which British city?
0:04:50 > 0:04:54Right. Well, it doesn't sound a British word at all. So erm...
0:04:54 > 0:05:01I'm not sure on this one. I'm going to plump for Nottingham.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Nottingham is the right answer.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07So where does the name come from, anybody?
0:05:07 > 0:05:10There's an MP called Jonathan Djanogly.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13Is he the son of the man who funded the gallery?
0:05:13 > 0:05:18I don't know. If I was to take a guess at a name like that, I'd say something like Armenian.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22- But I don't know it.- The same family, do we know?- I wouldn't be surprised.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25OK. Pat, if you get this wrong, you'll be knocked out.
0:05:25 > 0:05:30Sir Fopling Flutter is a character in which Restoration Comedy?
0:05:36 > 0:05:42I have no idea, I'm afraid. The Man Of Mode. The Recruiting Officer.
0:05:42 > 0:05:47I'm not sure I can identify any logical way of getting at it.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51It's just a name, just an alliterative name.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Sir, that doesn't really help. The Man Of Mode.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56The Recruiting Officer.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02I'll guess The Beaux' Stratagem, but it's a complete guess.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05I thought you'd go for that, and it's wrong.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08It's The Man Of Mode. Pat, you have been knocked out by Carol.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12Well done, Carol. You'll be in the final round.
0:06:12 > 0:06:17And Pat, after three questions, you have gone. Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21As it stands, the challengers have lost no brains from the final round.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25The Eggheads have lost a brain. The next subject is Politics.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27- Who would like this? - Rosemary or Phil.
0:06:27 > 0:06:34- One of you.- Phil?- You want me to go? - Yeah.- I'll take the bullet.
0:06:34 > 0:06:40- Before you go, just choose an Egghead for us. Can't be Pat. - Judith, I think. Go for Judith?
0:06:40 > 0:06:42I'm happy with that.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44- We'll take Judith. - We'd like Judith, please.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48- You got picked and she got picked for you!- I think so.
0:06:48 > 0:06:53- I think she did. Phil from Rodney's Trotters, Judith, on Politics.- Yep.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Please go to the Question Room.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59I'll ask each you three questions on Politics in turn.
0:06:59 > 0:07:03Whoever answers the most questions correctly goes through to the final.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05Phil, you can choose the first or second set.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07I'd like to go first, please.
0:07:10 > 0:07:16Here's your question. Which Ukrainian politician suffered from dioxin poisoning in 2004,
0:07:16 > 0:07:19allegedly due to an assassination attempt?
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Not very familiar names.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36One that stands out more than the other two is the first one,
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Viktor Yushchenko.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41So I think I'll go for that one.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45Viktor Yushchenko is the right answer. Well done.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Judith, your question.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Who became the Greek minister for culture in 1981
0:07:50 > 0:07:54and campaigned for the return of the Elgin Marbles?
0:07:59 > 0:08:03That was the film star, Melina Mercouri.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Melina Mercouri is the right answer.
0:08:05 > 0:08:10- I don't remember Demis Roussos doing anything in that role!- No. Nor do I.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14Phil, your question. Woodford in Essex was the last constituency
0:08:14 > 0:08:15held by which prime minister?
0:08:21 > 0:08:25I don't think it was Winston Churchill.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30Of the other two, I think I'll have to go for Stanley Baldwin.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34- Let's see if your team know.- Always Churchill.- Churchill is the answer.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Should always go for the one you don't think it is.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41OK, so, Judith, your chance to take the lead.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44What was the name of the series of political events
0:08:44 > 0:08:47which culminated in the resignation of Eduard Shevardnadze
0:08:47 > 0:08:49as president of Georgia?
0:08:54 > 0:08:58Oh, dear! I don't know. I'm not sure. It's a guess.
0:08:58 > 0:09:03- I think it might be the Rose Revolution.- It is. Well done.
0:09:03 > 0:09:07Back to you, Phil. You need to catch up with Judith now.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11What was the first state of the USA to give women the vote?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Again, I don't know.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Can't imagine it was Georgia.
0:09:19 > 0:09:24I'm going to have to take a guess at Wyoming.
0:09:24 > 0:09:25He's right, isn't he?
0:09:25 > 0:09:27- He is indeed.- It's also the one...
0:09:27 > 0:09:31You wouldn't really guess Wyoming cos there's a lot of cowboys there.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35- It is nicknamed the Equality State for that reason.- Is it?- Mm-hmm.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38So Wyoming is the right answer, Phil. Well done.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40So Judith, if you get this right, you will be in the final.
0:09:40 > 0:09:45The president of which country lives in the Malacanang Palace?
0:09:48 > 0:09:49Dear.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52Malacanang, what language does that sound like?
0:09:52 > 0:09:55I think it sounds Filipino for some reason.
0:09:55 > 0:10:00I'm going to guess, it is a guess, Filipino. Philippines.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Philippines is the right answer, Judith. Well done.
0:10:03 > 0:10:04Sorry, three out of three, Phil,
0:10:04 > 0:10:08and your Churchill answer knocked you out, I'm afraid.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11You won't be in the final. Judith, you will be.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your team-mates.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18As it stands, the challengers have lost one brain from the final round
0:10:18 > 0:10:20and the Eggheads have also lost a brain.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23The next subject is Music.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Who would like this? Is this a good one?
0:10:25 > 0:10:28That's going to be Andrew.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30- Got to be you, I think, Andy. - Our musician.- Yeah.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- OK, Andrew.- Looks like it's me! - Against which Egghead?
0:10:33 > 0:10:34Can't be Pat or Judith.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38- Go for Barry? - Yeah, Barry, I think, please.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41You said that as if inspiration was coming to you there.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43THEY LAUGH
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Barry, are you feeling musical?
0:10:44 > 0:10:47I'll let you know shortly.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49OK, so it's Andrew from Rodney's Trotters
0:10:49 > 0:10:52versus Barry from the Eggheads, and to make sure there's no conferring,
0:10:52 > 0:10:54please go to the Question Room now.
0:10:54 > 0:10:59OK, Andrew, would you like the first or the second set of questions?
0:10:59 > 0:11:01I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:11:04 > 0:11:05Here we go, good luck.
0:11:05 > 0:11:09Falling In Love Again became the signature song of which performer?
0:11:14 > 0:11:20I can sort of picture it in my head, the actual tune,
0:11:20 > 0:11:23and I'm just trying to think who it actually fits.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29I think it's Marlene Dietrich, yes. I'll go for Marlene Dietrich.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Marlene Dietrich is quite right. Well done.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34First point to you. Over to Barry now.
0:11:34 > 0:11:39Hands touching hands/Reaching out/ Touching me, touching you...
0:11:39 > 0:11:43are lyrics from which Neil Diamond song?
0:11:47 > 0:11:51I think that's... Ooh, let me think. It's not I Am...I Said.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55I think it's Sweet Caroline.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Go on, sing it.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59# Hands touching hands
0:11:59 > 0:12:02# Touching me, touching you
0:12:02 > 0:12:03# Sweet Caroline. #
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Very good, Barry, well done. You're right, Sweet Caroline it is.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08OK, Andrew, your question.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11The song I Enjoy Being A Girl features in which
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Rodgers & Hammerstein musical?
0:12:17 > 0:12:19It's interesting.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21I was brought up on the musicals
0:12:21 > 0:12:26and I'm just trying to place where I've heard that one.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30But I think I can remember it being in South Pacific,
0:12:30 > 0:12:34so I'll go South Pacific, please, Jeremy.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38Now if Daphne was here, I think she would tell you you're wrong.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42It's Flower Drum Song. That's the musical.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Barry, your question to take the lead.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48In which Benjamin Britten opera is the title character elected
0:12:48 > 0:12:53May King in the absence of any suitable female candidates for May Queen?
0:12:57 > 0:13:00Well, that sounds quite an amusing thing to do, and the only
0:13:00 > 0:13:04comic opera there is Albert Herring, so I shall go for that one.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Albert Herring is the right answer. He's in the lead.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09You need to get this one right, Andrew.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12The Elton John song Benny And The Jets
0:13:12 > 0:13:15originally appeared on which album?
0:13:20 > 0:13:25Well, Elton John is sort of my era growing up.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30I'm going to go for...
0:13:30 > 0:13:32Honky Chateau.
0:13:32 > 0:13:33It's actually not.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38It's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, the better known of the three,
0:13:38 > 0:13:41but not an easy one to guess. Andrew, sorry.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44Barry, you don't need your question cos there's no way back
0:13:44 > 0:13:45for our challenger.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48You've been knocked out, Barry's in the final.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51Both of you, please rejoin your teams.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Well, as it stands the challengers have lost two brains
0:13:54 > 0:13:57from the final round. The Eggheads lost a brain themselves.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59The last subject is Film & Television.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Which one of you wants this? Can be John or Rosemary.
0:14:02 > 0:14:06- Well, it's got to be Rosemary, I think.- Who watches the most?
0:14:06 > 0:14:07OK, Rosemary, against which Egghead?
0:14:07 > 0:14:11I think I'd like to take on CJ, please, Jeremy.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14What is that expression, CJ, on your face, there?
0:14:14 > 0:14:17When this category comes up, I never expect to be picked.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19I mean, even though I don't watch film or TV,
0:14:19 > 0:14:21it is my favourite subject.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24You looked almost self-satisfied,
0:14:24 > 0:14:26but I can't imagine you'd ever feel that.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29I think the word you're looking for is smug.
0:14:29 > 0:14:33Rosemary from Rodney's Trotters against CJ from the Eggheads,
0:14:33 > 0:14:35please go to the Question Room now.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39I'll ask each of you three questions on Film & Television in turn.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42Rosemary, would you like the first or the second set of questions?
0:14:42 > 0:14:45I think I'd like to take the first set, please, Jeremy.
0:14:47 > 0:14:51OK, good luck, Rosemary. Here we go.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54Which actor has appeared in the films The Departed, Oceans Eleven
0:14:54 > 0:14:55and True Grit?
0:14:59 > 0:15:04I've not seen any of those films at all,
0:15:04 > 0:15:07so it's going to be a complete guess,
0:15:07 > 0:15:11and I'm going to guess with Harrison Ford.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13No, not Harrison Ford.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15The answer's Matt Damon.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18CJ, here's your question.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22In 2009, which Strictly Come Dancing regular became the host
0:15:22 > 0:15:25of the TV game show Hole In The Wall?
0:15:31 > 0:15:32It's not Bruno.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38I'm not completely sure, but I think it's Anton du Beke.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Anton du Beke is the right answer, well done.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Rosemary, your question.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46What were the names of the two sisters who were the main characters
0:15:46 > 0:15:50in the TV drama series The House Of Elliot?
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Yes, I remember watching this series,
0:15:58 > 0:16:04and I can rule out the one on the left and the one on the right.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07I'm going to go straight down the middle with Beatrice and Evangeline.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Well done, you're absolutely right. Beatrice and Evangeline.
0:16:10 > 0:16:16CJ, which 1992 film starred Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn
0:16:16 > 0:16:21as rivals for the affections of a plastic surgeon played by Bruce Willis?
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Yeah, it got a lot of recognition for it's groundbreaking
0:16:28 > 0:16:31special effects, especially the scene at the end where
0:16:31 > 0:16:36Goldie Hawn has her middle blown out by a shotgun and still lives.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38And it's Death Becomes Her.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Death Becomes Her is correct. I'm almost thinking you've seen it.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44I have actually seen that one. I didn't particularly like it.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47Yeah, I thought from the way you spoke about it
0:16:47 > 0:16:49- you must have seen it. - Yeah, I did.- Amazing!
0:16:49 > 0:16:54So, he has two and you have one, Rosemary. Got to get this one right.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56In the first episode of Coronation Street,
0:16:56 > 0:17:00which character asked for "half a dozen fancies, but no eclairs?"
0:17:05 > 0:17:09I think Ena Sharples was the sort of character
0:17:09 > 0:17:11who would be quite fussy about what she ate,
0:17:11 > 0:17:13so I think we'll go with Ena Sharples.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Well done, Rosemary, you're absolutely right.
0:17:16 > 0:17:17Ena Sharples it is.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20I guess, cos there was a wonderful anniversary, wasn't there?
0:17:20 > 0:17:22- Was it 50 years?- BARRY:- 50th, yes.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24And I think they reran it, didn't they? The first episode.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26- Yeah, the first one.- Yeah.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28OK, CJ, if you get this right you're in the final.
0:17:28 > 0:17:34In 2005, Rosie Marcel started playing which character
0:17:34 > 0:17:37in the TV drama series Holby City?
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Never seen it, blind one in three guess, Kyla Tyson.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47No!
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Ha-ha-ha-ha, ha! Sorry.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Jac Naylor is the answer.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- No? Still drawing a blank? - No, absolutely nothing.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56You got it wrong, so you're equal after three questions.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Well done, Rosemary, you held on in there, kept your nerve,
0:17:59 > 0:18:02and eventually he fumbled one.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06So now it's Sudden Death, gets a bit harder. It's not multiple choice.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08- Are you ready?- Yes, thank you.
0:18:08 > 0:18:13OK. Rosemary, which comedienne and author regularly appeared
0:18:13 > 0:18:19as Ethel Davis in the 1980s children's TV show No. 73?
0:18:20 > 0:18:25It's not something I've ever seen or even ever heard of.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30And the lady was called Ethel?
0:18:30 > 0:18:35I've heard of a comedienne called Ethel Merman,
0:18:35 > 0:18:39so I think I'm going to go with that, please. Ethel Merman.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43Not Ethel Merman. I'm trying to place her. Earlier in the...
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Go on, CJ, you want to say.
0:18:45 > 0:18:46It's Sandi Toksvig.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Sandi Toksvig is the answer.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51Wasn't a very well-known children's TV show.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54OK, CJ.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56All right, you disagree. Let's play on.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58That is noted.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Here's your question.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03If you get this right, CJ, you've taken the round.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06Which actress born in 1975 played the role of Clementine
0:19:06 > 0:19:11in the 2005 film Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind?
0:19:11 > 0:19:15Well, the actress who plays the lead female role in that is Kate Winslet.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18- Is that your answer?- It is indeed.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Kate Winslet is correct.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23- It's a great film, that, CJ, you must watch it sometime.- I'll try.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25So you've taken the round, and Rosemary,
0:19:25 > 0:19:29sorry he's knocked your out, but you got him to Sudden Death!
0:19:29 > 0:19:32If you both come back to us, we will play the final round.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34So this is what we have been playing towards,
0:19:34 > 0:19:38it is time for the final round which as always is General Knowledge.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:19:40 > 0:19:42won't be allowed to take part in this round
0:19:42 > 0:19:46so Rosemary, Andrew and Phil from Rodney's Trotters,
0:19:46 > 0:19:49and Pat from the Eggheads, would you please leave the studio?
0:19:50 > 0:19:55Well, John and Carol, you're playing to win Rodney's Trotters £10,000.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58Barry, Judith, Kevin and CJ, you're playing for something
0:19:58 > 0:20:02that money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07This time, the questions are all General Knowledge
0:20:07 > 0:20:09and you are allowed to confer.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11John and Carol, the question is,
0:20:11 > 0:20:14are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:20:14 > 0:20:16- We certainly hope so. - Do you want to go first or second?
0:20:16 > 0:20:18We'll go first, please.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Good luck to you. Here we go.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27What type of garments are reefers and bombers?
0:20:32 > 0:20:34- We know that one, don't we? - I think we do.
0:20:34 > 0:20:35Yes, I think we're OK with that one.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38It's not skirts or ties, it's definitely jackets.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41Jackets is the right answer. Well done.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45First point to you. OK, over to the Eggheads.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Lindow Man, popularly known as Pete Marsh,
0:20:48 > 0:20:50is the preserved body of an early man,
0:20:50 > 0:20:55usually kept on display in which museum, Eggheads?
0:21:02 > 0:21:03- Where is he?- I'm not sure.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06I haven't seen anybody like that in the British,
0:21:06 > 0:21:09unless he's tucked at the back but...
0:21:09 > 0:21:11I don't know it that well.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14- It's from Cheshire, isn't it?- Is he?
0:21:14 > 0:21:15- That's where he was found.- Yes.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17His body preserved in the peat.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19There was a whole range of them.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21There was Tollund Man in Denmark which was similar.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25- Natural History's more animals, isn't it?- Yes.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27And birds and whatnot.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29Maybe it is the British Museum.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31I just don't know where he is.
0:21:31 > 0:21:34I went round the Science Museum fairly recently
0:21:34 > 0:21:35and I didn't see him.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37The British Museum's full of mummies.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39The British Museum is the more logical...
0:21:39 > 0:21:41- The more likely, yeah. - ..of the three.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44- I can't see it in the Science Museum.- No.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48- Science Museum, I think not. - It's not Natural History.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50- I think we have to...- We have to go for the British Museum.- Yes.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53We should know this but we don't, as it happens.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57The Natural History tends to be the animal world, essentially,
0:21:57 > 0:21:59and the physical environment.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05Erm, Science Museum, possibly. We're going to go for the British Museum.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09- Do you think they've got it right? - I think they have.
0:22:09 > 0:22:13You have got it right, Eggheads, after a wonderful struggle.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17Ooh, that would have been nice, wouldn't it?
0:22:17 > 0:22:18To have a wrong answer there.
0:22:18 > 0:22:23Your second question. Odo, Bishop of Bayeux,
0:22:23 > 0:22:27who became Earl of Kent, was the half brother of which king?
0:22:31 > 0:22:34So, Odo is O-D-O and Bishop of Bayeux,
0:22:34 > 0:22:37B-A-Y-E-U-X.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40I've heard of him. I don't think it's Edward I.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- You don't think it's Edward I? - I don't think so.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44He would have been around that time, wouldn't he?
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Tapestry.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48Richard I...
0:22:49 > 0:22:54He spent most of his time in Palestine and on crusade.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56I've got a feeling it's William the Conqueror,
0:22:56 > 0:23:00William I, but I'm not 100% sure.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03- But that's what you think? - I think it is, yeah.
0:23:03 > 0:23:08Carol's our historian so we'll go with William I.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Carol is right. Well done.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12William I it is. Good stuff.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15OK. Over to you, Eggheads.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17See if you can make heavy work of this one.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Alouette is the French name for which bird?
0:23:24 > 0:23:26- The lark.- It's the lark, isn't it?
0:23:26 > 0:23:28- Fine.- Yes.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31It's a lark. Alouette is a lark.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33How do you know it's a lark? Is it in a song or something?
0:23:33 > 0:23:36- Rossignol is nightingale. - Rossignol is nightingale.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38- I don't know what sparrow is.- Erm...
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Piaf?
0:23:40 > 0:23:43THEY LAUGH
0:23:43 > 0:23:46OK. Lark is the right answer, Eggheads.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49Two points each. It's tight, this one, isn't it?
0:23:50 > 0:23:55Which psychoanalytical concept is also known as parapraxis?
0:24:02 > 0:24:04- Para?- Parapraxis...
0:24:04 > 0:24:05- is through or...- Yeah.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11- I'm going towards Freudian Slip. - So am I.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13- Shall we go with that?- Yeah.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15We don't really know
0:24:15 > 0:24:20- but we're going to plump for Freudian Slip.- OK.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22You went straight there, just a little, quick discussion
0:24:22 > 0:24:25and you're right. Freudian Slip it is.
0:24:25 > 0:24:29Three out of three. Well done.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33Many have fallen by the wayside by this point and you have not.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35Let's see what happens in the Eggheads' third question.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Here we go, Eggheads. The architect Otto Wagner
0:24:39 > 0:24:42designed many art-nouveau style stations
0:24:42 > 0:24:44for a rail system of which city?
0:24:48 > 0:24:51I thought it was Vienna but I'm not 100%.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Vienna Secession.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Otto Wagner was associated at the end of the 19th,
0:24:56 > 0:25:00beginning of the 20th century, with a group called the Vienna Secession.
0:25:00 > 0:25:04He was Viennese. So on that basis...
0:25:04 > 0:25:06I think also the underground stations in Vienna
0:25:06 > 0:25:11do have art nouveau facades, or some of them. So, Vienna.
0:25:11 > 0:25:15Vienna is the right answer, Eggheads.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17What a shame!
0:25:17 > 0:25:21It was the first question we wanted them to get wrong,
0:25:21 > 0:25:22that first British Museum question.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24So we're on Sudden Death.
0:25:24 > 0:25:28It gets a bit harder. I don't give you alternative options.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Which Australian tennis player defeated Greg Rusedski
0:25:31 > 0:25:37in the final of the men's singles competition at the 1997 US Open?
0:25:37 > 0:25:41Um, the name that came immediately to me was Pat Rafter.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43- Was he around?- There was another
0:25:43 > 0:25:48younger one after that but I can't think what his name was.
0:25:48 > 0:25:491997?
0:25:49 > 0:25:511997...
0:25:51 > 0:25:53- Lleyton Hewitt?- Yes, that's the name I thought of
0:25:53 > 0:25:56- but I wouldn't swear that... - Lleyton Hewitt?
0:25:56 > 0:25:59I wouldn't know if that was his era.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Pat Rafter was a bit earlier.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Do you think so?
0:26:04 > 0:26:06- I can't...- Shall we go for Lleyton Hewitt?
0:26:06 > 0:26:10Well, you'll strangle me if I'm wrong!
0:26:10 > 0:26:13We'll go for Lleyton Hewitt.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17Your answer is Lleyton Hewitt. CJ knows all of these names.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20He retained the title the next year. I'm afraid it's Pat Rafter.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Pat Rafter's the answer.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Sorry. Let's see if they get this one right.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28They may not do. They may not.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32Published in 1948, Other Voices, Other Rooms
0:26:32 > 0:26:36was the debut novel by which American writer?
0:26:36 > 0:26:411948? Was that Norman Mailer?
0:26:42 > 0:26:46Just rings a bell with me for Mailer for some reason.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50- Rings a bell with me...- I thought of somebody straight away.- Who?
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Somebody else. James Baldwin.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55But I don't know. I may be getting confused
0:26:55 > 0:26:58because he later wrote one called Giovanni's Room.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Giovanni's room, yes. What about...
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Truman Capote?
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Yes, that's possible.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Erm, yeah, that's a possibility.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Yeah, that is a possibility, definitely.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Maybe Truman Capote.
0:27:13 > 0:27:18Do know what Capote's first novel was? Does the date...?
0:27:18 > 0:27:22The date's OK cos he'd have been in his mid-20s then.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27I think I'm perhaps now more inclined to Capote.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30For what my modest opinion on this is worth,
0:27:30 > 0:27:32- I'd go for Capote.- OK.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37We don't know it as such.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41On balance, we've decided to go for Truman Capote.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44Truman Capote.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46The answer is Truman Capote.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49Very well done there, Eggheads.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52You weren't sure at the start and you gradually got towards it.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Congratulations. The Eggheads have won.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04I suppose in a way it would be worse if they'd got that one wrong
0:28:04 > 0:28:07because then you'd think your answer on the Pat Rafter... you would have won it.
0:28:07 > 0:28:11- They are pretty fearsome, aren't they?- They are.- They are indeed.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14I thought, they're not going to get this cos they've thrown in Norman Mailer
0:28:14 > 0:28:17and then, was it James Baldwin? Yeah?
0:28:17 > 0:28:19Then, Judith, well done to you.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22Truman Capote, and everyone seized on it.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24Commiserations to you, challengers.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them,
0:28:27 > 0:28:28their winning streak continues.
0:28:28 > 0:28:33That does mean you won't be going home with the £10,000 so the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35Eggheads, very well done.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38Who will beat you? Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:38 > 0:28:41have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44£11,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye.
