0:00:04 > 0:00:08These 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?

0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five challengers

0:00:27 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:31 > 0:00:35They've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37They are the Eggheads.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40Taking on our awesome quiz champions today,

0:00:40 > 0:00:43Masters of the NHS, from Bristol.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46This team of colleagues work in a variety of roles for the NHS,

0:00:46 > 0:00:49and are all in the midst of studying for masters degrees.

0:00:49 > 0:00:50Let's meet them.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53Hi, my name's Donna, I'm 33.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55I'm a community health development worker.

0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Amy, I'm 30, and I'm a health promotion specialist.

0:00:59 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Alex, I'm 26. I'm a health promotion specialist.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Hi, I'm Mandy, I'm 52, and I'm a health promotion manager.

0:01:06 > 0:01:10Hi, I'm Kate, I'm 31, and I'm a community health development worker.

0:01:10 > 0:01:15Welcome to you, Masters of the NHS. "Masters" because of those degrees.

0:01:15 > 0:01:19Donna, tell me how you fit that in with working, studying, as well.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22We actually get day release from our work.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25So some of us work part time or full time,

0:01:25 > 0:01:28but we get a day to go to uni.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30But, I mean, it adds to the stress.

0:01:30 > 0:01:34You've got the stress of work, studying and domestic life.

0:01:34 > 0:01:38You've still got to fit five days of work into four days.

0:01:38 > 0:01:42- It's still the same amount of job. - OK. And, of course,

0:01:42 > 0:01:46I can see why it's a good idea to help you do this.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48We kind of got made to do it!

0:01:48 > 0:01:51Why did you decide to take on the Eggheads?

0:01:51 > 0:01:53Bit of light relief, I suppose!

0:01:53 > 0:01:56Uni was a bit easy, so... LAUGHTER

0:01:56 > 0:01:59That's the kind of fighting talk I like!

0:01:59 > 0:02:03Every day, there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers.

0:02:03 > 0:02:07If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, it rolls over to the next show.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10Masters of the NHS, the Eggheads have won the last three games.

0:02:10 > 0:02:14£4,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:14 > 0:02:18Let's get on with it. Our first head-to-head battle today is:

0:02:19 > 0:02:21Who'd like to play this?

0:02:21 > 0:02:26My personal feeling would be that I'd rather do it now!

0:02:27 > 0:02:31- I think that's a good plan! - And leave you till the end.

0:02:31 > 0:02:35- Are you sure?- If Politics comes up, we need to leave Mandy, as well.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37Donna, what are you trying to say?!

0:02:37 > 0:02:39What do you think? Who should I play?

0:02:39 > 0:02:42Any Egghead you like. It's the opening round.

0:02:42 > 0:02:47Amy's going to take this and she's going to play against Chris.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Chris. OK. Amy and Chris for the opening round.

0:02:50 > 0:02:56Could I ask you both please to take your positions in the Question Room?

0:02:57 > 0:03:00Well, Amy, I know you do a lot of charity work.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02You were involved in organising a charity quiz.

0:03:02 > 0:03:07Tell me about the charity and the quality of the quizzing.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09It's nothing to the standard of Eggheads!

0:03:09 > 0:03:11Obviously!

0:03:11 > 0:03:14It's really the raising awareness

0:03:14 > 0:03:17for victims and survivors of domestic violence and abuse

0:03:17 > 0:03:21and their children. So it's an awareness-raising thing.

0:03:21 > 0:03:24It's general knowledge. But I'm always behind the scenes,

0:03:24 > 0:03:27so this is a whole different thing for me!

0:03:27 > 0:03:30OK, Amy, it's Film & Television.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33- Would you like to go first or second?- First, please.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39Best of luck, Amy. Here's your first question.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41In June, 2000, who made the news

0:03:41 > 0:03:45when he appeared on the TV show he usually co-presented

0:03:45 > 0:03:48dressed as Sacha Baron Cohen's character Ali G?

0:03:52 > 0:03:56I remember this one. I don't think I watched it at the time.

0:03:56 > 0:04:01But I remember it, because I remember his wife looking mortified.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04I think he even won an award for how cringe-worthy it was.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06I'm pretty sure it's Richard Madeley.

0:04:06 > 0:04:12Yes. And "Me Judy" did look a bit, I think "nonplussed" was the phrase.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Richard Madeley is correct. Well identified, Amy.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18You're on the board. Your first question, Chris.

0:04:18 > 0:04:23Jones the Steam is a character in which children's TV series?

0:04:25 > 0:04:27Well, look, boyo, I do not believe that you...

0:04:27 > 0:04:31This is pure chance. It's got to be, hasn't it?

0:04:31 > 0:04:34With Idris and Olwen the dragons living in his firebox,

0:04:34 > 0:04:36trundling up and down

0:04:36 > 0:04:39between Grumbly Gasworks and the other place,

0:04:39 > 0:04:42it's got to be Ivor the Engine, hasn't it?

0:04:42 > 0:04:47Ivor the Engine. Chris, you're a serious train enthusiast,

0:04:47 > 0:04:50do you watch things like that?

0:04:50 > 0:04:53- I used to when I was a kid.- OK.

0:04:53 > 0:04:58Before I ever went to school, my dear old mum taught me to read

0:04:58 > 0:05:02with the first few Thomas the Tank Engine books, so...

0:05:02 > 0:05:06- Maybe that's what started it. We've got them to blame.- Yes.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10Right answer. OK, Amy, second question.

0:05:10 > 0:05:14Which of Alfred Hitchcock's films was advertised with the line

0:05:14 > 0:05:17It's a deadly game of "tag" and Cary Grant is "it"?

0:05:21 > 0:05:23I'm really not sure.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26Erm, definitely not confident on this one,

0:05:26 > 0:05:30so it probably will have to be a guess.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33I've heard of Notorious and North by Northwest.

0:05:33 > 0:05:38The third one, I'm not so sure of, so it's probably going to be that!

0:05:38 > 0:05:43But I'm going to make a guess for North By Northwest.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46OK, North By Northwest with Cary Grant.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49It's the right answer, yes. Well done.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52North By Northwest. Well identified. You have two.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Chris, who starred as Charlotte opposite Bill Murray

0:05:55 > 0:05:58in the 2003 film Lost In Translation?

0:06:03 > 0:06:07I don't think it was Kirsten Dunst. Or Charlize Theron, come to that.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11I think, I'm not too sure, I think it's Scarlett Johansson.

0:06:11 > 0:06:16Scarlett Johansson is correct. Both got your film questions right.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18And another question, Amy.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22In the TV comedy series Flight of the Conchords,

0:06:22 > 0:06:25what's the name of Bret and Jemaine's manager,

0:06:25 > 0:06:26played by Rhys Darby?

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Have you seen this? Do you watch it?

0:06:31 > 0:06:36I have to admit, I am a fan, but I can't do a New Zealand accent.

0:06:36 > 0:06:41Don't worry about that. We just want a correct answer.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43Now I've said that, I'm under pressure.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46I'm pretty sure that it's Murray.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Fingers crossed I've not being too confident.

0:06:49 > 0:06:53Murray is the right answer! I'm glad you watched it.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56OK, well, Murray is correct and that gives you the lead.

0:06:56 > 0:07:00If Chris doesn't get this, it gives you a place in the Final Round.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04Chris, which pop group starred in John Boorman's 1965 film

0:07:04 > 0:07:05Catch Us If You Can?

0:07:09 > 0:07:12This is my era.

0:07:12 > 0:07:16It was set in London and it was The Dave Clark Five.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19Not making Amy "Glad All Over" then.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22It is the right answer. The Dave Clark Five.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26Amy, you've done really well, three out of three. So has Chris.

0:07:26 > 0:07:30We're going to make it harder and put you into Sudden Death.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Here's your question.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35Which British actor's final film role

0:07:35 > 0:07:37was playing a character named Sir Charles Litton

0:07:37 > 0:07:41in Curse of the Pink Panther in 1983?

0:07:41 > 0:07:44The only British actor that jumps to mind

0:07:44 > 0:07:47when you think about Pink Panther is Peter Sellers.

0:07:47 > 0:07:52But I don't think that was... I don't think he was in that role.

0:07:52 > 0:07:54Erm...

0:07:56 > 0:08:00I'm going to go with Peter Sellers, just because... Peter Sellers.

0:08:00 > 0:08:04Better to say something, isn't it? But it's not Peter Sellers,

0:08:04 > 0:08:07playing Inspector Clouseau, not Sir Charles Litton.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09- Chris, do you know? - David Niven.- David Niven.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11- Oh!- The Curse of the Pink Panther.

0:08:11 > 0:08:15OK, well, Chris, Anthony Quinn won an Oscar

0:08:15 > 0:08:20for his famously brief performance in which 1956 film?

0:08:21 > 0:08:23Er, Lust For Life.

0:08:23 > 0:08:27Phew! Dredged that up! It's the right answer, yes!

0:08:27 > 0:08:31- Know any more about it? - It's a biopic of Vincent Van Gogh.

0:08:31 > 0:08:35- I think he played Paul Gauguin. - That's absolutely right.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38Bad luck, Amy. Good quizzing. That Egghead being Chris

0:08:38 > 0:08:40has knocked you out in Sudden Death.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43He'll be in the Final Round and you won't. Sorry.

0:08:43 > 0:08:47Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Narrow victory for the Eggheads.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52It means Masters of the NHS have lost one brain.

0:08:52 > 0:08:56Our second head-to-head today is Sport.

0:08:56 > 0:09:01Who'd like to play this? It can't be Amy, but any of your colleagues.

0:09:01 > 0:09:04You didn't want to go first, you can go second!

0:09:04 > 0:09:06I'm going to play Sport.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09- Who are you going to play against? - Take CJ out.

0:09:09 > 0:09:14- CJ.- You've got a plan, haven't you? You're very quick on choosing.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16So you're playing Sport and taking on CJ.

0:09:16 > 0:09:21Could I ask you both please to take your positions in the Question Room?

0:09:21 > 0:09:23So, Donna, would you like to go first or second?

0:09:23 > 0:09:26I think I'll go first, please.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31OK, good luck, Donna. Sport, first question.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34Neil Fairbrother and Adam Hollioake

0:09:34 > 0:09:37represented England at which sport during the 1990s?

0:09:39 > 0:09:42OK, er,

0:09:42 > 0:09:45I never heard of the first chap, Fairbrother,

0:09:45 > 0:09:51but Adam Hollioake I have heard of, and his brother, Ben Hollioake,

0:09:51 > 0:09:54and they play cricket.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Cricket is correct. Great start.

0:09:57 > 0:10:01CJ, in tennis, the player to whom the ball is served is known as what?

0:10:04 > 0:10:07- He or she would be the receiver. - They most certainly would.

0:10:07 > 0:10:11You received a very nice question, given your love of tennis.

0:10:11 > 0:10:14Your second question, Donna.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17The footballers Ashley Cole, Steven Gerrard and John Terry

0:10:17 > 0:10:19were all born in which year?

0:10:23 > 0:10:26Erm...

0:10:26 > 0:10:30I was born in 1977, so that would make them the same age as me,

0:10:30 > 0:10:36and I think Ashley Cole is younger than me, I would say.

0:10:36 > 0:10:41But not as... I think '83 is too late.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45'77 could be too early. I'm going to go for 1980.

0:10:45 > 0:10:50Very good. That's correct. Well worked out, Donna.

0:10:50 > 0:10:51You have two.

0:10:51 > 0:10:56CJ, long snapper is the name of a position in which sport?

0:10:59 > 0:11:02Well, I haven't heard of it,

0:11:02 > 0:11:05but in American football,

0:11:05 > 0:11:10you have people who throw the ball a long distance

0:11:10 > 0:11:13and you sort of snap your arm to throw it,

0:11:13 > 0:11:16so it could be American football.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19Erm... I've got a logical reason for American football, so I'll try that.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22OK, American football...

0:11:22 > 0:11:25..is the right answer. But the wrong logic!

0:11:25 > 0:11:30The snap is when they start the game from between the players' legs.

0:11:30 > 0:11:34A long snap is when they throw it a long way back on the fourth down.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37- Understand?- I don't care, though.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39DERMOT LAUGHS

0:11:39 > 0:11:41CJ got that right, Donna, but it's all square.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43Next question for you.

0:11:43 > 0:11:49In 2006, Felipe Massa made his debut for which Formula 1 racing team?

0:11:51 > 0:11:53I don't think it was Renault.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56I don't think it was Ferrari, either.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58(Maybe it was Ferrari.)

0:11:58 > 0:12:02I don't think it's Renault. I'm going to rule Renault out.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06I'm going to go for Ferrari. I'm going to change my mind.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08I'm going to stick with Ferrari, please.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11A lot of players, including the Eggheads,

0:12:11 > 0:12:15feel first instincts are the best to stay with.

0:12:15 > 0:12:16Ferrari is correct!

0:12:16 > 0:12:19- Well done! - MANDY: Well done.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Worked that time.

0:12:21 > 0:12:25Let's hope CJ doesn't catch up, we'll get you to the Final Round.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28CJ, in which sport did Frankie Gavin

0:12:28 > 0:12:31win a Commonwealth gold medal for England in 2006?

0:12:34 > 0:12:37He's a boxer, so boxing.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39Well done, CJ. Right answer.

0:12:39 > 0:12:43So, again, second round in a row, into Sudden Death.

0:12:43 > 0:12:47Donna, you've been dealing with the pressure really well.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49In which sport would you be most likely

0:12:49 > 0:12:54to put pressure on your opponents with a 40-20 kick?

0:12:54 > 0:12:56OK, so...

0:12:56 > 0:12:58I don't know.

0:12:59 > 0:13:03Sumo wrestling? It's a guess. I don't know, though.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06Sumo. OK, I see what you mean. Sumo wrestling.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08It's not. It is rugby league.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10- Oh. OK.- Rugby league.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12Well, a chance for CJ.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16Which snooker player was a postman, miner and bus conductor

0:13:16 > 0:13:20before turning professional at the age of 31

0:13:20 > 0:13:23and winning the World Championship on his first attempt?

0:13:23 > 0:13:27Another postman who won the World Championship on his first attempt

0:13:27 > 0:13:31was Terry Griffiths, but I don't think he was 31,

0:13:31 > 0:13:33whereas the...

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Oh, hold on. Or was it Terry Griffiths?

0:13:37 > 0:13:39Because... Oh, hold on.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42Alex Higgins was the first player to win it

0:13:42 > 0:13:44at his first attempt in 1972,

0:13:44 > 0:13:47so it can't be, erm...

0:13:47 > 0:13:50It can't be Ray Reardon, so it has to be...

0:13:50 > 0:13:53- It has to be Terry Griffiths. - So, your answer is...?

0:13:53 > 0:13:55- Terry Griffiths.- Terry Griffiths.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58And while you were smiling, it nearly was Ray Reardon.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01Until I realised he wasn't a postman!

0:14:01 > 0:14:04Yes! It is the right answer. Terry Griffiths.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06One of CJ's favourite subjects,

0:14:06 > 0:14:09for those of you who've seen him on the World Championship coverage,

0:14:09 > 0:14:12quizzing with the snooker players.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14Nearly got it wrong, but that's the Egghead he is,

0:14:14 > 0:14:18double checking and coming up with Terry Griffiths.

0:14:18 > 0:14:22Bad luck, Donna. You won't be in the Final Round either.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:14:25 > 0:14:28Masters of the NHS, not quite mastering the Eggheads yet.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31You've lost two brains from the Final Round,

0:14:31 > 0:14:33but both of them in Sudden Death.

0:14:33 > 0:14:38With just one more big push, you might get an Egghead knocked out.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41This round is Arts & Books.

0:14:41 > 0:14:46Who'd like to play this? It has to be either Alex, Mandy or Kate.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49Do you want me to do that?

0:14:49 > 0:14:52It's six of one and half a dozen of the other, really, isn't it?

0:14:52 > 0:14:56- Do you want to be at the end on your own?- I'll give it a go.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58OK.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02OK, Kate, with who would you like to play from the Eggheads?

0:15:02 > 0:15:07It has to be Daphne, Kevin or Judith.

0:15:07 > 0:15:08I'll let you decide.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10Kate's going to play this one, Dermot,

0:15:10 > 0:15:13and she will play against Judith, please.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15OK, let's confirm that, then.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18Kate taking this one on for Masters of the NHS,

0:15:18 > 0:15:20and Judith taking it on for the Eggheads.

0:15:20 > 0:15:24Would you both please make your way to the Question Room?

0:15:24 > 0:15:28So, Kate, I understand you're a big Eggheads fan.

0:15:28 > 0:15:32Yes, I've been watching it recently in my lunch break on BBC iPlayer.

0:15:32 > 0:15:38Ah! OK! Do you demand total silence around you while you concentrate?

0:15:38 > 0:15:41I share an office with Mandy, so we watch it together.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43There's a lot of conferring!

0:15:43 > 0:15:46All right. Would you like to go first or second?

0:15:46 > 0:15:47First, please.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52No conferring now. No-one to confer with.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54First question, then.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57The long-running Sweet Valley High series of books

0:15:57 > 0:16:01about beautiful blond twins, Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield,

0:16:01 > 0:16:03is set in which country?

0:16:06 > 0:16:10This series of books isn't one that I'm familiar with,

0:16:10 > 0:16:14but I do remember my friends reading them when they were about 11 or 12,

0:16:14 > 0:16:18and I think I'm going to go with USA.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20Sweet Valley High, USA is correct.

0:16:22 > 0:16:26Judith, in the name of the 15th century painter Fra Angelico,

0:16:26 > 0:16:28what is the meaning of the title "Fra"?

0:16:30 > 0:16:33It's brother. He was a monk.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35It is. Brother Angelico.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38Straight back to you, Kate.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40The title character of which Dickens novel

0:16:40 > 0:16:42has a father called William,

0:16:42 > 0:16:46who spends part of the novel imprisoned in Marshalsea Prison?

0:16:50 > 0:16:54This isn't a Dickens book that I'm familiar with.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57It's going to have to be a guess, I'm afraid.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00I'm going to go with Nicholas Nickleby.

0:17:00 > 0:17:04Nicholas Nickleby. Is Dad in prison?

0:17:04 > 0:17:07It's not. Do you know, Judith?

0:17:07 > 0:17:10- It's Little Dorrit. - It is Little Dorrit.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13Not Judith's question. She doesn't get a point for it.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16She has to give a correct answer here.

0:17:16 > 0:17:20In what decade were the Hugo Awards for science fiction first given?

0:17:23 > 0:17:25I don't know anything about science fiction.

0:17:25 > 0:17:29Well, the '40s was in the war,

0:17:29 > 0:17:34so unless it was the late '40s, I think that's unlikely.

0:17:34 > 0:17:38Erm, I think it probably might've been the...

0:17:38 > 0:17:40I don't know. 1950s.

0:17:40 > 0:17:431950s for the Hugo Awards.

0:17:43 > 0:17:44It is correct, Judith.

0:17:44 > 0:17:49- I won't ask you for any more information.- I haven't got any.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51Hugo Awards, from the 1950s.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Judith got it, so it means you must get this, Kate.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57What is the name of the decorative process

0:17:57 > 0:17:59whereby incisions are made into metal,

0:17:59 > 0:18:02which are then filled with coloured enamel?

0:18:07 > 0:18:10This isn't a term that I've heard of before.

0:18:10 > 0:18:14Erm... I'm just having a look at the words

0:18:14 > 0:18:19and seeing if there's any hints in them at all, but I'm not seeing any!

0:18:19 > 0:18:23Incisions being made into metal and then filled with coloured enamel.

0:18:24 > 0:18:30I think I might go with cliche verre.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34Cliche verre for this process.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38It's not. No. Not cliche verre.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41- Do you know, Judith? - I think it's probably champleve,

0:18:41 > 0:18:44because that means "raised field".

0:18:44 > 0:18:47It is champleve, which you didn't identify.

0:18:47 > 0:18:52So that round ends rather swiftly. Kate won't be in the Final Round.

0:18:52 > 0:18:56Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:18:56 > 0:18:58And then there were two.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Masters of the NHS have lost three brains from the Final Round.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04The Eggheads haven't lost any.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06Come on, let's get one of them out!

0:19:06 > 0:19:09Our last subject is Politics.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12- GIRLS LAUGH - Oh, dear. Mandy or Alex?

0:19:12 > 0:19:15OK! All right.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17Alex says she wants to do this.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20They're not really politicians!

0:19:20 > 0:19:25- Who are we playing?- Politics is probably our weakest subject!

0:19:25 > 0:19:29But Alex is going to play this round.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31- Against...- Daphne?- Yes. - And she'll play Daphne.

0:19:31 > 0:19:35OK, it's going to be Alex and Daphne on this one. Politics.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38The Question Room is the place to do it!

0:19:39 > 0:19:43- Alex, do you want to go first or second?- First, please.

0:19:45 > 0:19:46Good luck, Alex.

0:19:46 > 0:19:51The Conservative Party's manifesto for the 2010 General Election

0:19:51 > 0:19:54was titled "Invitation To Join" what?

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Now, I'm not sure on this one.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03I'm going to kick myself afterwards.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06I'm pretty sure it's not The Government of Britain.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09That's a bit too forward-thinking of them.

0:20:09 > 0:20:15- LAUGHTER - I think I'm going to go...

0:20:15 > 0:20:18..between The Future and Next Generation.

0:20:18 > 0:20:22I'm going to go with The Future.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24Invitation To Join The Future.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26They'd all fit, wouldn't they?

0:20:26 > 0:20:30But it was not Invitation to Join The Future.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32It was The Government of Britain.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35Invitation to Join The Government of Britain.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38OK, Daphne. What general name is given to policies

0:20:38 > 0:20:42aimed at countering discrimination against minorities and women,

0:20:42 > 0:20:45especially in the workplace and education?

0:20:51 > 0:20:55I think that must be Affirmative Action.

0:20:55 > 0:20:59Is the right answer. Yes, Affirmative Action.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01We need to get you moving, Alex.

0:21:01 > 0:21:05Viktor Chernomyrdin served as the prime minister of Russia

0:21:05 > 0:21:08in which decade of the 20th century?

0:21:11 > 0:21:16This is going to be a complete guess.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19SHE SIGHS

0:21:19 > 0:21:21I'm going to go down the middle. 1980s.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24Viktor Chernomyrdin, prime minister of Russia.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27It's not the '80s, no. Daphne?

0:21:27 > 0:21:32- '90s.- '90s. Of course, it was the USSR before the 1990s.

0:21:32 > 0:21:36OK, well, it means you can win the round if you get this, Daphne.

0:21:36 > 0:21:40Egyptian president Anwar Sadat shared the Nobel Prize for peace

0:21:40 > 0:21:42with which Israeli prime minister

0:21:42 > 0:21:45after the two had earlier signed the Camp David Accords?

0:21:52 > 0:21:57I can't remember! Erm...

0:21:57 > 0:22:00I really can't.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05Isn't that awful?

0:22:05 > 0:22:07Apologies to my team,

0:22:07 > 0:22:09erm...

0:22:10 > 0:22:12Begin?

0:22:13 > 0:22:17- Menachem Begin...- No? - ..is the right answer, Daphne.

0:22:17 > 0:22:21- That is correct.- My mind went blank!

0:22:21 > 0:22:25It seems it did, but something inkled.

0:22:25 > 0:22:27- Yes!- The '70s wasn't it, er...

0:22:27 > 0:22:29- Jimmy Carter.- Jimmy Carter.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33Got together at Camp David, the presidential retreat.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37That gives you the round. Just got it there, Daphne.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40It means you won't be playing in the Final Round, Alex.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Please come back and join your teams.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46So this is what we've been playing towards.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49It's time for the Final Round. As always, general knowledge.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:22:52 > 0:22:54won't be allowed to take part.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57Donna, Amy, Alex and Kate from Masters of the NHS,

0:22:57 > 0:22:59would you leave the studio, please?

0:23:00 > 0:23:04So, Mandy, you're playing to win the Masters of the NHS £4,000.

0:23:04 > 0:23:08Judith, Kevin, CJ, Daphne and Chris are playing for something

0:23:08 > 0:23:11which money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17They're all general knowledge. You can confer.

0:23:17 > 0:23:18Mandy, the question is,

0:23:18 > 0:23:21is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?

0:23:21 > 0:23:26- Mandy, would you like to go first or second?- Second, please.

0:23:29 > 0:23:33OK, let's hope your luck changes. Eggheads, the first question.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35In the NATO phonetic alphabet,

0:23:35 > 0:23:38which word is used to represent the letter U?

0:23:40 > 0:23:42ALL: Uniform.

0:23:42 > 0:23:43It's uniform.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46Uniform is correct.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49- How would you have been with that? - I should've gone first.

0:23:49 > 0:23:52Well, let's see what the second set holds.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55The first question is this.

0:23:55 > 0:23:59Wincey Willis found fame on TV in the 1980s in which capacity?

0:24:02 > 0:24:05That's why they brought an older person along!

0:24:05 > 0:24:08She was a weather presenter. I remember her well.

0:24:08 > 0:24:12Wincey Willis, the weather presenter. It's right, yes.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14Eggheads, second question.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17What type of creature is the Red-crowned Amazon?

0:24:21 > 0:24:23- Here we go now!- Do we know?

0:24:23 > 0:24:26- No.- Oh, I thought... I'm sorry.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29The Red-crowned Amazon, eh? Any thoughts, Chris?

0:24:29 > 0:24:33- I'd go for parrot. - That would be my instinct.

0:24:33 > 0:24:38It doesn't sound like a fox with a mohican, or something like that.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41- Er...- Monkey? - JUDITH: It could be a monkey.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44It's that red-headed macaw-type thing.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47We'd have heard of it, I would've thought.

0:24:47 > 0:24:51Parrot. Red-crowned, yes, Amazon, yes.

0:24:51 > 0:24:55- It sounds...- Birdie. - It sounds right.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58We don't know, but we'll go for parrot.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00All that brain power there

0:25:00 > 0:25:03and in the end it comes down to "it sounds birdie"!

0:25:03 > 0:25:07- It's the right answer. - Thank God for that.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09My goodness me. OK, well,

0:25:09 > 0:25:12- let's see how you do with your second.- OK.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14Ben Grimm is the alter ego

0:25:14 > 0:25:19of which member of the comic book superhero team the Fantastic Four?

0:25:22 > 0:25:23I've seen the film

0:25:23 > 0:25:27and so I'm trying to think who they would call Ben.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31Ohh...

0:25:31 > 0:25:34I can't decide if that's The Human Torch or The Thing.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36I don't think it's The Silver Surfer.

0:25:36 > 0:25:40So I'm going for The Hu...

0:25:40 > 0:25:43The Thing is my answer. The Thing.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45You started saying "The Hu...".

0:25:45 > 0:25:48The Human Torch was what I started to say.

0:25:48 > 0:25:52- Am I going to hit myself? - No, you've got the right answer.

0:25:52 > 0:25:57- Excellent!- Last minute there! Last millisecond.- It was.

0:25:57 > 0:26:00- Well done. Something jumped into your mind.- It did.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03The Thing is Ben Grimm.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06So, is it going to be grim for the Eggheads?

0:26:06 > 0:26:10Who assassinated US president William McKinley in 1901?

0:26:16 > 0:26:20Who assassinated US president William McKinley in 1901?

0:26:20 > 0:26:22THEY CONFER

0:26:22 > 0:26:25It's Leon, er...

0:26:25 > 0:26:28I think I'd say "Zolgosh", but there we go.

0:26:28 > 0:26:33It's the right answer, Eggheads. Leon Czolgosz.

0:26:33 > 0:26:37They have three, which means the pressure's on you now, Mandy.

0:26:37 > 0:26:42Which best-selling 1907 novel by Elinor Glyn gave rise to the rhyme,

0:26:42 > 0:26:45"Would you like to sin With Elinor Glyn

0:26:45 > 0:26:46"On a tiger skin?

0:26:46 > 0:26:48"Or would you prefer To err with her

0:26:48 > 0:26:51"On some other fur?"

0:26:54 > 0:26:57I have no idea.

0:26:57 > 0:27:00Never heard of it. Don't even know any of the answers.

0:27:00 > 0:27:04It's going to be an absolute and pure guess.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08(Would you like to decide?)

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Erm...

0:27:10 > 0:27:15The Man and the Moment doesn't sound like something a woman...

0:27:15 > 0:27:17I'm not going to say "It".

0:27:17 > 0:27:20It's between Three Weeks and The Man and the Moment.

0:27:20 > 0:27:24My captain always said if I didn't know, go straight down the middle,

0:27:24 > 0:27:26so I'm going to obey, The Man and the Moment.

0:27:26 > 0:27:30The Man and the Moment by Elinor Glyn...

0:27:31 > 0:27:34It's not The Man and the Moment. What is it, Eggheads?

0:27:34 > 0:27:36- Three Weeks.- It's Three Weeks.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40Three Weeks. Which means, Eggheads, you've won.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49OK, well, it means the Eggheads have won it,

0:27:49 > 0:27:52but some of those head-to-heads were tight.

0:27:52 > 0:27:55- You played really well in that final round.- Thank you.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57The Thing will stick in the mind.

0:27:57 > 0:28:00You went from The Human Torch to The Thing in a millisecond.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03The other thing about you, Masters of the NHS,

0:28:03 > 0:28:05it's great quizzing, Eggheads,

0:28:05 > 0:28:09with people who love the show, know all about how it works,

0:28:09 > 0:28:13and quizzed with such enthusiasm? But, it must be said, no luck!

0:28:13 > 0:28:17- No luck! But, hey, we've had fun. - We've had a lot of fun having you.

0:28:17 > 0:28:22Thank you for coming in to see and play the Eggheads.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25Best of luck with all those studies.

0:28:25 > 0:28:29The Eggheads have done what comes naturally. They still reign supreme.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £4,000.

0:28:31 > 0:28:34That means the money rolls over.

0:28:34 > 0:28:37Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?

0:28:37 > 0:28:40Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers

0:28:40 > 0:28:42have the brains to defeat them.

0:28:42 > 0:28:45£5,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
