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?

0:00:23 > 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 > 0:00:38They are the Eggheads.

0:00:38 > 0:00:41Taking on our champions today are On The Arm.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44This team know one another from working and socialising

0:00:44 > 0:00:46at the Solihull Municipal Club.

0:00:46 > 0:00:47Let's meet them.

0:00:47 > 0:00:51Hello, I'm Nick, I'm 21, and I'm a politics student.

0:00:51 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm Peter, I'm 50, and I'm a serving police officer.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hi, I'm Adam, I'm 31, and I'm a company director.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Hello, I'm Alastair, I'm 37.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03I'm a local government enforcement officer.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Hi, I'm Gary, I'm 42, and I'm a customer service manager.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Welcome to you On The Arm.

0:01:09 > 0:01:13An original team name. Explain to us what it means.

0:01:13 > 0:01:18We generally quiz quite often at various pubs. Nothing too serious.

0:01:18 > 0:01:22Myself and Adam have put together a few quizzes, different genres.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25We did a World Cup quiz and stuff.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28They're free. We don't charge anybody to come in.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32What we say as a slang term, "on the arm" means "free",

0:01:32 > 0:01:37so we call them on-the-arm quizzes. So, why not have it as a team name?

0:01:37 > 0:01:39- This is on the arm.- Well, yes!

0:01:39 > 0:01:42- Potentially, a very big reward at the end.- We can hope!

0:01:42 > 0:01:45- What can be better? - A small matter of the questions!

0:01:45 > 0:01:49There is that in between, yes, between the beginning and the money.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52Let's explain to you what's going on so far.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Every day, there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers.

0:01:55 > 0:01:59But if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the money rolls over.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02On The Arm, the Eggheads have won the last five games.

0:02:02 > 0:02:06That means £6,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08Let's do the in-between bit, that's the quizzing.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11Let's start now with our first head-to-head battle.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14The subject is Science.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20- Who wants to play? - I've got a bit of GCSE knowledge,

0:02:20 > 0:02:24- so I think, er, I'll give that a go. - Should be enough!

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Science. OK. I know you're a politics student.

0:02:27 > 0:02:32- Yes.- We have a Politics category. We don't know what's coming up.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35- I'll have to have a go at Science. - OK. Science it is, then.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37- Which Egghead will it be? - Who do you think?

0:02:37 > 0:02:40Daphne? Do you want to take Daphne?

0:02:40 > 0:02:43I'll try and take Daphne on.

0:02:43 > 0:02:48- OK.- She likes that, actually! - She just likes quizzing.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50- Programmed to quiz.- Yes.

0:02:50 > 0:02:54OK, well, it's Nick and Daphne playing this one. Science.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58Could I ask you both please to take your positions in the Question Room?

0:02:58 > 0:03:01Nick, our politics student, playing Science.

0:03:01 > 0:03:02First or second?

0:03:02 > 0:03:06I'll try and put some pressure on, so I'll go first.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12OK, Nick, what name is given to the component

0:03:12 > 0:03:16onto which the internal elements of a personal computer are mounted?

0:03:21 > 0:03:23I think I know this.

0:03:23 > 0:03:28In this era, everyone uses computers and, luckily, I have access to one.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30I haven't done any computer science,

0:03:30 > 0:03:33but I'm pretty sure it's a motherboard.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Yes, it is. Good start.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38He's started putting that pressure on.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40Daphne's first question.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43What term is used to describe a type of computer network

0:03:43 > 0:03:46in which devices are connected to one another in series?

0:03:50 > 0:03:52I think that's a daisy chain.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55- Not a clover hitch? - No, that's a knot.

0:03:55 > 0:03:59- Is it?- Yes!- It is the right answer. Daisy chain.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01OK, Nick.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04What name is given to a drug or other agent

0:04:04 > 0:04:06that increases the rate of urine formation

0:04:06 > 0:04:09and, hence, the rate at which water and certain salts

0:04:09 > 0:04:11are lost from the body?

0:04:14 > 0:04:20Erm... I'm going to have to do a bit of quiz logic here.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23I think emollient is normally what you put on your skin,

0:04:23 > 0:04:27like moisturiser stuff, I think.

0:04:27 > 0:04:32Anabolic, that rings a bell from school.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35Er... I don't think it's that one. I think it's...

0:04:35 > 0:04:38I can't remember what it's to do with.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41So I think it could be diuretic.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43Diuretic.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46It's the right answer. Diuretic.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49OK, Daphne.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52The world's first digital watch, called the Pulsar,

0:04:52 > 0:04:54complete with glowing red numerals,

0:04:54 > 0:04:57first went on sale in April of which year?

0:05:03 > 0:05:06No idea. Erm...

0:05:11 > 0:05:1319...

0:05:13 > 0:05:16..72.

0:05:16 > 0:05:201972. That early. What do you think, other Eggheads?

0:05:20 > 0:05:23I think it was much later.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27The first calculators with that kind of display came out about that time,

0:05:27 > 0:05:29so I would say '72.

0:05:29 > 0:05:33She's right, you know. 1972!

0:05:34 > 0:05:37I'd say some of you Eggheads have still got yours!

0:05:37 > 0:05:40OK, it's all square so far after two questions.

0:05:40 > 0:05:45Nick, third question. The US researcher Harry Coover

0:05:45 > 0:05:48made which accidental but useful discovery?

0:05:51 > 0:05:55Erm... The name doesn't ring any bells, unfortunately.

0:05:55 > 0:06:02I can't see why he'd stumble upon a microwave oven.

0:06:02 > 0:06:06It's a pretty dangerous game, playing with radiation and stuff.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10Erm... So out of the other two,

0:06:10 > 0:06:13I'm going to plump for superglue.

0:06:13 > 0:06:17You're working well, it's the right answer.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Harry Coover discovered superglue,

0:06:19 > 0:06:24which Nick discovered, as well, by a bit of intuition.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27Puts you in the lead and means you go through to the Final Round

0:06:27 > 0:06:29if Daphne gets this wrong.

0:06:29 > 0:06:33The giant oarfish, that can grow to more than 30-feet long,

0:06:33 > 0:06:34is also known by which name?

0:06:38 > 0:06:40Hm...

0:06:42 > 0:06:44I don't know.

0:06:44 > 0:06:48It won't be Prince of Whales.

0:06:52 > 0:06:56A guess, king of herrings?

0:06:57 > 0:06:59- No?- Yes!

0:07:00 > 0:07:03It's the only one I'd heard of.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06That's the usually the reason why with you Eggheads.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Playing like an Egghead there, Nick. We go to Sudden Death

0:07:09 > 0:07:11because it's all square,

0:07:11 > 0:07:15and all square in terms of you both getting them correct.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19Just to make it harder, we're going to take away the choices.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21I've just got to hear the answer from you.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24You will have nothing to guess at. Here's your question.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27The SI unit of capacitance

0:07:27 > 0:07:31is named after which English scientist?

0:07:34 > 0:07:37As you can probably guess, I don't actually know.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Just try and have a think.

0:07:39 > 0:07:43Erm... The two that stick out are Einstein and Newton,

0:07:43 > 0:07:47but I don't think it's any of those. Erm...

0:07:49 > 0:07:52My brain's gone empty.

0:07:52 > 0:07:56I don't know. I'm just going to plump for...

0:07:56 > 0:08:00I'm going to say Isaac Newton. I know that's not the answer.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03OK. Isaac Newton, of course, has an SI unit named after him,

0:08:03 > 0:08:05but not capacitance.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07No, it's not Newton.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10Could've been Daphne's question if she'd gone first,

0:08:10 > 0:08:13assuming that you both got the opposite set of questions correct.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17- Do you know it, Daphne? - Michael Faraday?

0:08:17 > 0:08:22- And the unit in question?- Farad. - The farad, yes. Michael Faraday.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Well, OK, it doesn't matter that Daphne knew that.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28It has no effect on the end result.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30She needs to give me a correct answer.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33Who wrote the 2004 book The Naked Woman,

0:08:33 > 0:08:37which examined the female body from an evolutionary point of view?

0:08:37 > 0:08:41I've got no idea, so I won't waste time.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43Desmond Morris?

0:08:43 > 0:08:45No!

0:08:45 > 0:08:48- It's the right answer! - DAPHNE GASPS

0:08:48 > 0:08:50"I've got no idea."

0:08:50 > 0:08:53I was waiting for you to say, "I'll pass."

0:08:53 > 0:08:57- It's because he wrote The Naked Ape, isn't it?- That's why I said it.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00- It's the title he uses, I think. - I've never heard of the book.

0:09:00 > 0:09:05The Naked Woman by Desmond Morris takes you though to the Final Round.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Bad luck, Nick. You see what form she's on.

0:09:08 > 0:09:12Disappeared a bit in a few recent games,

0:09:12 > 0:09:16the ability to guess those, and inspired guesses they all are,

0:09:16 > 0:09:19but it seems to have come back to you, Daphne.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22No place in the Final Round, Nick. Daphne, you'll be there.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:09:25 > 0:09:28First victory for the Eggheads.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31One member of On The Arm missing from the Final Round, at least.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34All the Eggheads are still there at this point.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37Our second head-to-head today is Sport.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39Who'd like to play this?

0:09:39 > 0:09:42We were hoping this round was to come up.

0:09:42 > 0:09:46Our resident sport man over there, that'll be Gary.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49OK, Gary. Who would you like to play from the Eggheads?

0:09:49 > 0:09:52It can't be Daphne. Any of the other four.

0:09:52 > 0:09:56- It's got to be Chris.- Sorry, Chris. We're going to plump for Chris.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59- You will be! - LAUGHTER

0:09:59 > 0:10:02OK. Gary and Chris playing this one. It's Sport.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05Could I ask you both to go to the Question Room?

0:10:05 > 0:10:08OK, well, Nick was pretty unlucky, Gary.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11Let's hope the same fate doesn't fall to you.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13- Do you want to go first or second? - First, please.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19Good luck, Gary. First question.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22In tennis, following a defeat against Lithuania,

0:10:22 > 0:10:27who resigned as Great Britain Davis Cup captain in 2010?

0:10:29 > 0:10:32OK, I think I know this one.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35I know it's not Mark Petchey, I believe he's a commentator.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37And I also think Barry Cowan is.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40I'm going to go for John Lloyd.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43You'd be right to do so. Good start. It's the right answer.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46Chris, your first question.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Which team defeated England on penalties

0:10:48 > 0:10:51in the 1990 Football World Cup semifinals?

0:10:54 > 0:10:57Thinking back to 1990...

0:10:59 > 0:11:02There would've been rampaging arguments about the Falklands

0:11:02 > 0:11:04if it had been Argentina, so it wasn't them.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Er...

0:11:06 > 0:11:11Italy... I think we got knocked out by West Germany in 1990.

0:11:11 > 0:11:15- West Germany. - They did a bit, yes! On penalties!

0:11:15 > 0:11:17It's the right answer, yes.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19West Germany.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22Gary, Tommy Bowe and Jamie Heaslip

0:11:22 > 0:11:25have represented which international rugby union team?

0:11:29 > 0:11:32OK. I'm not too sure.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35I don't think they're Welsh.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41OK. 50-50.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43I'm going to go for Ireland.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46OK. Bit of pressure there.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49It's the right answer, yes. Ireland.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Chris, in which decade of the 20th century

0:11:53 > 0:11:57did the boxer Henry Cooper take part in his first professional bout?

0:12:01 > 0:12:03Now, his real moment of glory

0:12:03 > 0:12:07was when he sat Ali on the canvas in '63.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10And he'd been a professional for some years then,

0:12:10 > 0:12:15so he must've started fighting as a pro in the late 1950s.

0:12:15 > 0:12:20Mid 1950s, actually. 1954. It's the right answer.

0:12:20 > 0:12:24OK, Gary, the NBA basketball franchise called the Grizzlies

0:12:24 > 0:12:28moved from Vancouver to which other city in 2001?

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Well, Vancouver's in Canada,

0:12:34 > 0:12:37so that would rule out Memphis.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Erm... I think...

0:12:41 > 0:12:44..Charlotte's in America or Canada.

0:12:46 > 0:12:49Charlotte or Portland. I'm going to go for Charlotte.

0:12:49 > 0:12:51- I think that's in Canada.- OK.

0:12:51 > 0:12:56No. You fed the wrong information into your brain.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59They're all in the USA. And it is Memphis.

0:13:00 > 0:13:04So, Chris, a chance to take the round.

0:13:04 > 0:13:09The laws of cricket dictate that a set of wickets is nine-inches wide

0:13:09 > 0:13:13and a bat can be a maximum of how many inches wide?

0:13:22 > 0:13:265.75 is five and three-quarter inches, which is too wide.

0:13:26 > 0:13:30Er, five is...

0:13:30 > 0:13:33What's that? That's about that. That's on the wide side, as well.

0:13:33 > 0:13:37It's 4.25 inches. Four and a quarter.

0:13:37 > 0:13:42Is this from measuring things up with all your engineering?

0:13:42 > 0:13:45Well, yes, I suppose so, yes.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48And you've come up with that. It's the right answer!

0:13:48 > 0:13:524.25 inches. Very good.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54You will be in the Final Round. No place for Gary.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57Please come back and join your teams.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59Another one to the Eggheads.

0:13:59 > 0:14:03On The Arm have lost two brains. The Eggheads haven't lost any.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06Our third head-to-head, this one is Geography.

0:14:06 > 0:14:10Who'd like to play this? It can be Peter, Adam or Alastair.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13The three of you in the middle there. Geography.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15THEY CONFER

0:14:15 > 0:14:18- Yeah?- I'll do it. Peter.

0:14:18 > 0:14:22OK, Peter. Who would you like to play from the Eggheads?

0:14:22 > 0:14:26We've had Chris and Daphne. You've got Barry, Pat or CJ.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Take Barry and leave Pat as one of the last ones?

0:14:28 > 0:14:30Take Barry on?

0:14:30 > 0:14:33Barry, please. We'll try and take Barry on.

0:14:33 > 0:14:38Try and take Barry. OK. It's Peter and Barry to play this one.

0:14:38 > 0:14:42Could you both please take your positions in the Question Room?

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Peter, I think Gary and Nick have both suffered from bad luck

0:14:46 > 0:14:47in their head-to-heads.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50Let's hope nothing like that happens to you.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53- First or second?- First, please.

0:14:57 > 0:14:58Best of luck. Concentrate.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01I'll read the question as many times as you like.

0:15:01 > 0:15:06What is the only US state to consist entirely of islands?

0:15:10 > 0:15:12Erm...

0:15:12 > 0:15:17Delaware and Alaska form part of the mainland of North America.

0:15:17 > 0:15:22Er, Hawaii is the state that I only know to consist of islands,

0:15:22 > 0:15:25so I'll go for Hawaii.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28Yes, of course. Good start.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31Barry, Vietnam's flag features

0:15:31 > 0:15:34a five-pointed golden star on a background of which colour?

0:15:36 > 0:15:39- It's red, Dermot.- Yes, it is. You know that all too well.

0:15:39 > 0:15:45It's all square after those first questions. Second to you, Peter.

0:15:45 > 0:15:49Mandelieu Airport serves which French city?

0:15:51 > 0:15:55Mandelieu. M-A-N-D-E-L-I-E-U.

0:15:55 > 0:15:59Right. Erm... Struggling with this one, I must say.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02It's not an airport I've heard the name of.

0:16:02 > 0:16:07Er, it's going to be a bit of a wild stab on this.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09I would go for...

0:16:09 > 0:16:12..film festival... Cannes. I'll go for Cannes.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15- Cannes.- Yes.- Just like the sound of that, do you?

0:16:15 > 0:16:17That's it. No more logic than that!

0:16:17 > 0:16:21You'll like it even more now it's right!

0:16:21 > 0:16:23Mandelieu.

0:16:23 > 0:16:27That must be where the film stars arrive in their private jets.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29OK. So, Barry,

0:16:29 > 0:16:33what term is used to refer to an isolated hill or mountain

0:16:33 > 0:16:35that rises abruptly from a plain,

0:16:35 > 0:16:38such as Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro?

0:16:41 > 0:16:45I believe those are called inselbergs.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47They are indeed. Very good.

0:16:47 > 0:16:48All square.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Third question, Peter.

0:16:50 > 0:16:55The Musandam Peninsula juts out into which strait?

0:17:01 > 0:17:04Again, er, struggling with great difficulty here.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Erm...

0:17:07 > 0:17:09I've not heard of the peninsula.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12- Could you give me it again, please? - It's the Musandam.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14M-U-S-A-N-D-A-M.

0:17:14 > 0:17:18The Musandam Peninsula.

0:17:18 > 0:17:22I'm inclined to go with Strait of Hormuz.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24OK. Gone for it. Why?

0:17:24 > 0:17:28Again, it's just a flash of inspiration.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32You are inspired! It's the right answer, yes.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Strait of Hormuz.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37Well, going really well.

0:17:37 > 0:17:41If Barry doesn't get this, you're in the Final Round, Peter.

0:17:41 > 0:17:46The Ilemi Triangle, I-L-E-M-I, is a disputed area of territory

0:17:46 > 0:17:50claimed by Ethiopia, Kenya and which other African country?

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Ah. I've not heard of this one.

0:17:55 > 0:18:01I'm going to hope my luck is in as much as my opponent's.

0:18:01 > 0:18:06The Ilemi... I can't take anything out of the name.

0:18:06 > 0:18:11Ilemi. But it has a vague Arabic ring about it.

0:18:11 > 0:18:15So in that case, I shall go for Somalia.

0:18:15 > 0:18:19OK. What do you think, other Eggheads? Have you heard of it?

0:18:19 > 0:18:23- I'd have a pop at Sudan. - I'd go for Sudan myself.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26They tend to disagree, those that have voiced an opinion.

0:18:26 > 0:18:31- And you're wrong, they're right. It's Sudan.- Ah!

0:18:31 > 0:18:36Which means, Peter, your luck and indeed your judgement,

0:18:36 > 0:18:39let's be honest about that - lot of judgement in there -

0:18:39 > 0:18:41has carried you into the Final Round.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:18:44 > 0:18:47Hotting up now. On The Arm sparked into life

0:18:47 > 0:18:50and knocked Barry out of the Final Round.

0:18:50 > 0:18:54Two of their members have gone. Our last head-to-head approaches.

0:18:54 > 0:18:59This one is Music. Adam or Alastair to play it.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02We've hopefully got our music buff with us.

0:19:02 > 0:19:06We think Alastair. Al's going to be playing.

0:19:06 > 0:19:10Al, who do you want to play? Two Eggheads remain - CJ and Pat.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13I think we'll take on the newly-crowned

0:19:13 > 0:19:16- World Quiz Champion - Pat, please. - OK.

0:19:16 > 0:19:20Pat. Mentioning him winning the World Quiz Championship.

0:19:20 > 0:19:24Let's have Alastair and Pat into the Question Room, please.

0:19:26 > 0:19:32OK, musical Al, as they called you, do you want to go first or second?

0:19:32 > 0:19:34I'll go first, please.

0:19:36 > 0:19:40First question, Al. I'll call you Alastair, I'll be more formal.

0:19:40 > 0:19:41First question.

0:19:41 > 0:19:46Hanky Panky was a UK number-two single in 1990 for which singer?

0:19:51 > 0:19:53I'm fairly certain it's not Cher.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Erm...

0:19:56 > 0:20:01I'm not absolutely certain, Dermot, but I'm going to go for Madonna.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04OK. It's right answer. Madonna and Hanky Panky.

0:20:06 > 0:20:11OK. Pat, which comedian had a UK number-one single in 1975

0:20:11 > 0:20:16with D.I.V.O.R.C.E., a parody of Tammy Wynette's earlier hit?

0:20:20 > 0:20:23All three of those chaps are comedians

0:20:23 > 0:20:27and I think all three have had trips into the charts.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29But this song was by Billy Connolly.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32Billy Connolly is correct, yes.

0:20:32 > 0:20:34D.I.V.O.R.C.E.

0:20:34 > 0:20:37And second question, Alastair.

0:20:37 > 0:20:40In the song Chattanooga Choo Choo, what follows the line

0:20:40 > 0:20:43"Pardon me, boy, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?"

0:20:48 > 0:20:52I haven't got a clue what the tune is.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55This will be a pure guess, I'm afraid.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58I'm going for my favourite number, which is track 21.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01Track 21. Chris?

0:21:01 > 0:21:04# Pardon me, boy Is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?

0:21:04 > 0:21:08# Track 29 Boy, you can gimme a shine #

0:21:08 > 0:21:0929.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13It's 29! I don't know if you could hear that. Track 29.

0:21:13 > 0:21:17OK, Pat. Which Coldplay song starts with the lyrics

0:21:17 > 0:21:19"I used to rule the world

0:21:19 > 0:21:22"Seas would rise when I gave the word"?

0:21:26 > 0:21:30It's from their recent album. It's Viva La Vida.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33Yellow and The Scientist are considerably further back.

0:21:33 > 0:21:37Viva La Vida is correct. So you have a lead.

0:21:37 > 0:21:40Alarm bells ringing for Alastair. He needs to get this.

0:21:40 > 0:21:44Which composer was financially supported by a business woman,

0:21:44 > 0:21:47called Nadezhda von Meck, for years

0:21:47 > 0:21:50and carried on a regular correspondence with her,

0:21:50 > 0:21:52though they never met?

0:21:55 > 0:22:01Again, I can only apologise for this, but I've got no idea.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03Erm...

0:22:04 > 0:22:08I can't even think of a reason why it wouldn't be one of the three.

0:22:08 > 0:22:12Er... I'm going to go for Mussorgsky.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14OK. Mussorgsky.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16It's not. Do you know, Pat?

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Tchaikovsky.

0:22:18 > 0:22:19It is.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21Which means the round is over.

0:22:21 > 0:22:25A couple of questions which really were off your radar.

0:22:25 > 0:22:29It means you won't be in the Final Round. Pat, you will be.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32Would you both come back and join your teams?

0:22:32 > 0:22:34This is what we've been playing towards.

0:22:34 > 0:22:38It's time for the Final Round. As always, general knowledge.

0:22:38 > 0:22:42I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads can't take part.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45Nick, Alastair and Gary from On The Arm,

0:22:45 > 0:22:47and Barry from the Eggheads,

0:22:47 > 0:22:50would you leave the studio now, please?

0:22:50 > 0:22:55Peter and Adam, you're playing to win On The Arm £6,000.

0:22:55 > 0:22:57CJ, Daphne, Chris and Pat,

0:22:57 > 0:23:00you're playing for something which money can't buy -

0:23:00 > 0:23:02the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:02 > 0:23:08I'll ask three questions in turn. You are allowed to confer.

0:23:08 > 0:23:12Peter and Adam, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?

0:23:12 > 0:23:15On The Arm, would you like to go first or second?

0:23:15 > 0:23:19We're going to stick with the same game plan and go first.

0:23:22 > 0:23:27Good luck, On The Arm. Good luck, Peter and Adam.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29The first question.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32Viernes is the Spanish name for which day of the week?

0:23:35 > 0:23:39V-I-E-R-N-E-S.

0:23:39 > 0:23:41Viernes.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44OK, thinking of the French,

0:23:44 > 0:23:49it's Lundi for Monday, Mercredi for Wednesday and Vendredi.

0:23:49 > 0:23:54- So Viernes is a bit like Vendredi. - Yes. Go with the "V".- I'm fairly...

0:23:54 > 0:23:58A degree of confidence on this one. I think it's Friday.

0:23:58 > 0:24:03- Doing it through your French. - Vendredi, yes.

0:24:03 > 0:24:07- And the "V" on the Vendredi. It's the right answer.- Good logic.

0:24:08 > 0:24:13Eggheads, who did the actress Mia Farrow marry in 1966?

0:24:17 > 0:24:20Who did the actress Mia Farrow marry in 1966?

0:24:20 > 0:24:21All happy with Sinatra?

0:24:21 > 0:24:24We think that's Frank Sinatra.

0:24:24 > 0:24:28- You don't think it. You know it. - We know full well that's Sinatra!

0:24:28 > 0:24:32It is the right answer, Eggheads. They married in '66.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35Second question to On The Arm.

0:24:35 > 0:24:39In Anglo-Saxon times, what was the fyrd?

0:24:39 > 0:24:42F-Y-R-D? What was it?

0:24:45 > 0:24:50I'm trying to think of any derivations there could've been.

0:24:50 > 0:24:55- Taxes were around in those times. - Yes, things like that.

0:24:55 > 0:24:56Armed forces...

0:24:56 > 0:24:59I mean, I've got...

0:24:59 > 0:25:04- My first instinct is parliament. - Was it formed in Anglo-Saxon times?

0:25:04 > 0:25:10- Hm.- Not an elected parliament. - There's certainly some old words...

0:25:10 > 0:25:15- There's meeting places, the moot. - Shall we go for parliament?

0:25:15 > 0:25:19Shall we go for parliament?

0:25:19 > 0:25:22We could talk ourselves in and out of it all day.

0:25:22 > 0:25:27OK, it's a bit of a stab, but we'll go for parliament.

0:25:27 > 0:25:31OK, for the fyrd...

0:25:31 > 0:25:33It was...

0:25:33 > 0:25:35..armed forces.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38Armed forces. Bad luck.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40Any more on that, Eggheads?

0:25:40 > 0:25:42They're sometimes, these days, called the feared,

0:25:42 > 0:25:45- because they were aggressive.- OK.

0:25:45 > 0:25:48Armed forces, anyway. Not identified by On The Arm.

0:25:48 > 0:25:51See how the Eggheads do with their second one.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55What is the alternative common name for the plant known as ramsons?

0:25:58 > 0:26:00- Wild garlic. - The alternative common name

0:26:00 > 0:26:02for the plant known as ramsons?

0:26:02 > 0:26:05- Wild garlic.- It is.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08That is wild garlic.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10Wild garlic for ramsons.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12It's correct, Eggheads.

0:26:12 > 0:26:15So you have a lead.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18A gap which has to be closed with this question, On The Arm.

0:26:18 > 0:26:23Which device is specifically used for measuring distances on maps?

0:26:27 > 0:26:32Which device is specifically used for measuring distances on maps?

0:26:32 > 0:26:36- Out of the three... - Opi... Opi... Vision.

0:26:36 > 0:26:40Optimetrics - so you think you would look through that.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43- But if you're measuring on a map... - Idiometer?

0:26:43 > 0:26:45You wouldn't have thought that would...

0:26:45 > 0:26:48Clinometer rings a bit of a bell. I don't know why.

0:26:48 > 0:26:52Out of the three, it's the one that I'm drawn towards, but...

0:26:52 > 0:26:54Idiometer. Idiometer.

0:26:54 > 0:26:58I can't see anything else, apart from an "idiom" in language,

0:26:58 > 0:26:59which doesn't help at all.

0:26:59 > 0:27:01Id... I don't know.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04I agree. Clinometer.

0:27:04 > 0:27:09I think, by process of elimination, we're going to go for clinometer.

0:27:09 > 0:27:16OK, clinometer, for a device used for measuring distances on maps.

0:27:16 > 0:27:21You need to get it. Sorry to tell you, it's incorrect.

0:27:21 > 0:27:22Eggheads, do you know?

0:27:22 > 0:27:26Opisometer. It's that little thing you do like that.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28Opisometer.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31Which means, Eggheads, you've won.

0:27:35 > 0:27:40Bad luck, guys. Peter, your touch that you had in the head-to-heads

0:27:40 > 0:27:43rather deserted you in the Final Round.

0:27:43 > 0:27:46Couple of stinkers there. Turns out the Eggheads knew them.

0:27:46 > 0:27:48But they're Eggheads.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51You did really, really well in those head-to-heads.

0:27:51 > 0:27:55Could've had a better result with a following win, which you didn't get.

0:27:55 > 0:27:59Thanks very much for playing today. Not to be.

0:27:59 > 0:28:03They have done what comes naturally. Their winning streak continues.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05You won't be going home with the £6,000,

0:28:05 > 0:28:08which means the money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:08 > 0:28:12Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?

0:28:12 > 0:28:15Join us to see if a new team have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18£7,000 says they don't.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Until then, goodbye.
