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.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19Question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, where five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:34You may recognise them as they've won some of the toughest quiz shows.
0:00:34 > 0:00:39They are the Eggheads. Taking on the awesome might of our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:39 > 0:00:41are Acting Clever.
0:00:41 > 0:00:46This team met through their involvement with Glasgow University's theatre group.
0:00:46 > 0:00:51Hi. I'm Ciaran. I'm 23 and I'm a support worker for a mental health charity.
0:00:51 > 0:00:56Hello. I'm Michael. I'm 24 and I'm a social support worker.
0:00:56 > 0:01:01Hi, I'm Joe. I'm 23 years old and I'm a post-graduate student.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Rob. I'm 24 years old and I'm an MC.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Hello. I'm Michael. I'm 21 and I'm an undergraduate student.
0:01:08 > 0:01:13Welcome, Acting Clever. I hope you are clever. Have you done quizzing before?
0:01:13 > 0:01:17We've done a bit of quizzing. But it's mainly the acting, not the clever!
0:01:17 > 0:01:21What about the acting? Student theatre, was it experimental?
0:01:21 > 0:01:25Kind of an hour of darkness or what, I don't know.
0:01:25 > 0:01:30- Michael, Rob kind of...- Michael writes serious plays and Ciaran writes funny plays.
0:01:30 > 0:01:36And I direct plays, which is basically a way of pretending to do things.
0:01:36 > 0:01:42Tell people where to stand and not to bump into furniture. That's about it, really.
0:01:42 > 0:01:47A master class in directing! Eggheads is a bit like that.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51Just answer the questions correctly. Very simple! OK.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55Every day there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the money rolls over.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Acting Clever, the Eggheads have won the last 19 games.
0:02:01 > 0:02:06So £20,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Our first head-to-head is on the subject of Politics.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Who'd like to play this? Politics.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14I'll take a bullet on Politics.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16I'll take on Politics.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20Who would you like to play from the Eggheads?
0:02:20 > 0:02:22I will play against Pat, please.
0:02:22 > 0:02:27OK. Ciaran and Pat on Politics. Into the Question Room, please,
0:02:27 > 0:02:29so you can't confer with your team.
0:02:31 > 0:02:36- So, Ciaran, do you want to go first or second?- I'll go second.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40First question, Pat.
0:02:40 > 0:02:45In the House of Commons, a government may be brought down by a vote of what?
0:02:48 > 0:02:52I suppose all three could be used as terms for this,
0:02:52 > 0:02:55but it's the dreaded vote of no confidence.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58No confidence is the right answer. Well done, Pat.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Ciaran,
0:03:00 > 0:03:08with 57 seats, which political party came third in the UK's May 2010 general election?
0:03:11 > 0:03:15OK. I know this one. It's the Liberal Democrats.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Liberal Democrats. Correct.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20Well done, Ciaran. You have one on the board.
0:03:22 > 0:03:27Which British prime minister said, "I have no interest in sailing around the world
0:03:27 > 0:03:30"not that there is any lack of requests for me to do so."
0:03:32 > 0:03:39Of those three, Ted Heath is the man who is usually linked with sailing.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42He had a boat. I'll have to go with Edward Heath.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45He's the man with the nautical pedigree.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Ted Heath. That's the right answer.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Ciaran,
0:03:49 > 0:03:52what name is given to the process in the United States
0:03:52 > 0:03:58where voters can subject an elected official to an election before his or her period in office is up,
0:03:58 > 0:04:04as was used to replace California governor Gray Davis with Arnold Schwarzenegger?
0:04:07 > 0:04:11Right. I don't think this is recount.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14That happens immediately after the election
0:04:14 > 0:04:16if there's some controversy.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20I don't think it's recantation. I'm going to plump for recall.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Recall is the right answer. Well done.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Two-all. Pat,
0:04:26 > 0:04:31in the 1960s, Levi Eshkol served as prime minister of which country?
0:04:33 > 0:04:38My first impressions are that Levi is obviously a very Jewish name.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Eshkol could easily be Israeli.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44I haven't heard of him as an Israeli prime minister,
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- but I'll have to go with Israel. - Israel.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49It's correct. Well done.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Three-two.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53You've got to get this, Ciaran.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56The Jenkins Commission which reported in 1998
0:04:56 > 0:04:59was set up to investigate what political issue?
0:05:06 > 0:05:09OK. Um... Could be any of them.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13MPs' salaries, I'm not sure if it was big at the time.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17Voting reform is something that a lot of governments promise
0:05:17 > 0:05:21and I think Labour might have done at the start of their 13 years.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25Private finance initiatives have been quite controversial
0:05:25 > 0:05:27for quite a long time.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31I'm going to go for voting reform.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Picked it out. Well done, yes. Correct.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37The Jenkins Commission reported on voting reform.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41Another Lib-Dem based question for you. Two out of those three.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44It's all square and both quizzing really well.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46It means we go to Sudden Death
0:05:46 > 0:05:52and remove the choices. Genadendal is an official residence of the head of state of which country?
0:05:53 > 0:05:55So many countries!
0:05:55 > 0:05:58My first thought was India. I remember a few years ago
0:05:58 > 0:06:02one of the official residences had to be abandoned
0:06:02 > 0:06:06because they had an attack of tsetse flies or some vile insect.
0:06:06 > 0:06:11- I don't know. I think I'll have to go for India.- India for Genadendal.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14It's not, it's South Africa.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16- Oh.- South Africa.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Official residence when in Cape Town.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Genadendal is in Cape Town.
0:06:21 > 0:06:27Ciaran, an opportunity here to knock out the Mastermind champion of champions.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30In 2009, who said of David Miliband,
0:06:30 > 0:06:35"If you saw him, it would be a big crush. I mean, he's so vibrant,
0:06:35 > 0:06:37"vital, attractive and smart.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40"He's a really good guy and he's so young."
0:06:40 > 0:06:47I'm going to go with some kind of idea that it might be someone in office in America meeting him.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49"A big crush" sounds American.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Um... 2009.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55He'd have been at some kind of summit then.
0:06:55 > 0:07:01- I'm going to go for Hillary Clinton. Sound like a fun answer. - Hillary Clinton.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03It's the correct answer. Well done!
0:07:03 > 0:07:05Great cheers from your team.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08You're in the final round, Ciaran, a real asset to the team.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Please come back and join your teams.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14That was a stunning victory, Ciaran.
0:07:14 > 0:07:19Fantastic. A blow to the Eggheads. One brain down from the final.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21All of Acting Clever are still there.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24The next subject coming up is Arts & Books.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28Arts & Books. Can't be Ciaran. Any of the other four can play this.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Michael's pretty brainy.
0:07:30 > 0:07:31Who, me?
0:07:31 > 0:07:33I think he's a good choice.
0:07:33 > 0:07:39- Who should I go against?- You can play any of the Eggheads who are not Pat.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Chris looks lovely.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Chris because he looks so lovely.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49OK. Let's have Michael and Chris into the Question Room, please.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Michael, do you want to go first or second?
0:07:54 > 0:07:56I'll go first.
0:07:59 > 0:08:05Here's your first question. Needful Things is a 1991 novel by which writer?
0:08:08 > 0:08:12I've read a bit of Stephen King for an American Lit course I did.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Doesn't sound macho enough to be a title for him.
0:08:18 > 0:08:23Um, it's a total guess but I'll have to go for...
0:08:24 > 0:08:26I'll go for Michael Crichton
0:08:26 > 0:08:28because I share a name with him!
0:08:28 > 0:08:32I see that, yes. No, it's not. It is Stephen King.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Right. Chris,
0:08:34 > 0:08:37what is the name of the detective in the PD James novels
0:08:37 > 0:08:40An Unsuitable Job for a Woman and The Skull Beneath the Skin?
0:08:44 > 0:08:49It's not Jane Tennison, cos that's Helen Mirren in Prime Suspect.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Kay Harker.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54What?!
0:08:54 > 0:08:58It's like you hit the Eggheads with a cattle prod! Not in a good way!
0:08:58 > 0:09:02It's Cordelia Gray. So both failing with your first question.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Good news for Michael.
0:09:04 > 0:09:10Your second. The writer Albert Camus is most closely associated with which movement?
0:09:13 > 0:09:15I wish it was the Beat Generation!
0:09:15 > 0:09:19I'd love to hear some of Camus' beat poetry!
0:09:19 > 0:09:22I think it must be Existentialism.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25Which I'm sure you knew outright. Yes.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Chris,
0:09:27 > 0:09:31the major prize in children's literature won by Briton David Almond in 2010
0:09:31 > 0:09:33is named after which writer?
0:09:38 > 0:09:42I don't think it's L Frank Baum. He's known for the Wizard of Oz.
0:09:42 > 0:09:47CS Lewis is too metaphysical to be a children's author, specifically,
0:09:47 > 0:09:51although The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is aimed at children.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54But on the basis he's the most generic children's author,
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Hans Christian Andersen.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59Hans Christian Andersen prize. Correct.
0:09:59 > 0:10:04Matching each other with incorrect answers to the first one
0:10:04 > 0:10:06and correct answers to the second.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Third question.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11In Alan Sillitoe's short story The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner,
0:10:11 > 0:10:16the central character, Colin Smith, takes up the sport during his time where?
0:10:21 > 0:10:25Again it's the title of a book that I know peripherally.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27I don't have much knowledge on it.
0:10:27 > 0:10:31- I'll go for army barracks. - Army barracks.
0:10:31 > 0:10:35Colin Smith taking up long distance running while at Borstal.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41Chance to win it and get one back for the Eggheads, Chris.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45In Frans Hals painting known as The Laughing Cavalier,
0:10:45 > 0:10:48what colour is the hat worn by the sitter?
0:10:50 > 0:10:52It's black with a feather in it.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56It is. It is black. Well done, Chris.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00Michael, you're not in the final round. Chris, you are.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03Please come back and join your teams.
0:11:04 > 0:11:09Ciaran, you angered the Eggheads with that first victory and Chris rose up and smote Michael!
0:11:09 > 0:11:14He's now out of the game. Both teams have lost one brain from the final.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18Our third head-to-head is Music. Who'd like to play this?
0:11:18 > 0:11:21Michael, Joe or Rob?
0:11:21 > 0:11:24- I think that's Michael's. - Definitely.
0:11:24 > 0:11:30- I think that's mine.- Choose an Egghead. Barry, Daphne or CJ?
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- Daphne would be good. - I'm taking on Daphne.
0:11:33 > 0:11:38OK. Michael and Daphne playing this one. Into the Question Room, please.
0:11:39 > 0:11:43Michael, do you want to go first or second?
0:11:43 > 0:11:45I will go first, please, Dermot.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51First question is this.
0:11:51 > 0:11:57Hold Me Close was a 1975 UK number one for which singer?
0:11:59 > 0:12:04Hold Me Close. I'm trying to remember the song.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10I am going to go with Leo Sayer
0:12:10 > 0:12:14simply because, if I remember correctly, he has an amazing Afro!
0:12:17 > 0:12:20No, it's not Leo Sayer and his amazing Afro.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22It's David Essex.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24David Essex with Hold Me Close.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Daphne, your first question.
0:12:26 > 0:12:32Which singer played Peron's mistress in the 1996 musical film Evita
0:12:32 > 0:12:35although her final appearance was only two minutes long
0:12:35 > 0:12:39after Madonna, as Evita, chose to sing the song usually sung by Peron's mistress.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47I have not seen Evita.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50One of the musicals I've missed.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53So I've no idea.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56I'll go for Vanessa Paradis.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57No, it's not.
0:12:57 > 0:13:02- CJ's shaking his head.- Andrea Corr is in it so I'd go for her.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Yes, Andrea Corr. So, all square.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08No harm done there. Second question.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12In 2007, which recording artist released his album Planet Earth
0:13:12 > 0:13:17in the UK by giving it away free with copies of a national newspaper?
0:13:20 > 0:13:21Right.
0:13:21 > 0:13:26Well, I'm quite sure it's not Jay-Z.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30I think I remember hearing about Prince
0:13:30 > 0:13:34releasing an album through a paper.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39So on that basis, mostly on a hunch, I'll go with Prince.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Good hunch. It's the right answer.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Michael has the lead but here's your second question.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Do You Remember the First Time, released in 1994,
0:13:51 > 0:13:53was the first UK top 40 single for which group?
0:13:55 > 0:13:58Absolutely no idea!
0:13:58 > 0:14:03I would say it might be Pulp.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06Yes, it is. Pulp. Well.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Daphne and her guesses!
0:14:09 > 0:14:10On it goes!
0:14:10 > 0:14:11Right.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Michael.
0:14:13 > 0:14:18Third question. The 48 is another name for which collection of pieces
0:14:18 > 0:14:19by Johann Sebastian Bach?
0:14:26 > 0:14:27Unfortunately, once again,
0:14:27 > 0:14:31I know nothing of Bach.
0:14:32 > 0:14:36I'm going to go with The Well-Tempered Clavier because it's nice.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40Looks like a nice name. I'll choose that.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43It's even nicer as it's the right answer. Well done.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45Daphne needs to get this.
0:14:45 > 0:14:51What nickname is popularly given to Haydn's Symphony number 94
0:14:51 > 0:14:54due to a sudden explosive chord in the slow movement?
0:14:58 > 0:15:03Yes, it's one of The London Symphonies, and it's a surprise.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06No surprise you got it. Right answer, yes.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09All square. Sudden Death.
0:15:09 > 0:15:10Michael.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13What name is given to a musical interval of eight notes
0:15:13 > 0:15:15on the diatonic scale
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Let me see.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24I'm just going to say octave, but I know it's wrong.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26It's correct!
0:15:30 > 0:15:31You got it.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37So you have to get this, Daphne. Domino Dancing and Left To My Own Devices
0:15:37 > 0:15:40were UK hit singles for which duo during the 1980s?
0:15:40 > 0:15:43No idea! The '80s passed me.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45A duo.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49Erasure. Wrong.
0:15:49 > 0:15:53It is wrong. I was sure you were going to get the right answer.
0:15:53 > 0:15:58- The Pet Shop Boys.- I'd never have got that.- You weren't getting close?
0:15:58 > 0:16:02So you're through to the final round, Michael, with a spectacular answer, octave.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Would you both please come back and join your teams.
0:16:08 > 0:16:12As it stands, the balance is in Acting Clever's favour.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14They've knocked two Eggheads out, Daphne and Pat.
0:16:14 > 0:16:19And one of their members is missing. Now our final head-to-head before the final.
0:16:19 > 0:16:24Film & Television. You've got Rob and Joe left to play this.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Let's have Joe.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29Yes, I'll do that one.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33- Who are we going to... - It's Barry or CJ.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36I think CJ is a good choice. We'll have a shot at it.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40- You'll make him very happy.- My favourite subject.- He loves it!
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Everybody's happy!
0:16:43 > 0:16:46Until the end of the round, then one of you won't be!
0:16:46 > 0:16:49Let's have Joe and CJ into the Question Room.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Joe, do you want to go first or second?
0:16:53 > 0:16:57I think I'll make a break with tradition and go second.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04That worked for Ciaran. CJ, first question.
0:17:04 > 0:17:09What was the title of the TV series that started in 2004
0:17:09 > 0:17:13where Gordon Ramsay attempted to rescue failing restaurants?
0:17:18 > 0:17:21I'm not aware of Gordon Ramsay having chemistry with anyone!
0:17:21 > 0:17:23I'd like to have seen Go on an Odyssey!
0:17:23 > 0:17:25But this was Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28That's the right answer.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Joe,
0:17:30 > 0:17:34what type of creatures are the children's TV characters Pinky and Perky?
0:17:36 > 0:17:40Well, I don't think they're dogs.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42I don't think they're mice either.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45In fact, I think they're pigs. Not sure about that.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47I'll stick with that.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Pinky and Perky are pigs, yes. The right answer.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52CJ, second one.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56Who played the South African rugby captain Francois Pienaar
0:17:56 > 0:17:58in the 2009 film Invictus?
0:18:01 > 0:18:05Alongside Morgan Freeman playing Nelson Mandela, it was Matt Damon.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07Matt Damon. Right. Two to you.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09Joe, your second question.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Who presented the first series of the TV comedy quiz The Bubble
0:18:13 > 0:18:14in 2010?
0:18:18 > 0:18:22Well, I haven't actually seen this quiz show,
0:18:22 > 0:18:27and obviously Stephen Fry does get around with panel shows.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Alexander Armstrong I don't know much about.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33I have an inkling it might be David Mitchell.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35I don't want to leap right in there,
0:18:35 > 0:18:38but I'll leap right in there at David Mitchell.
0:18:39 > 0:18:42Right answer, yes. David Mitchell. The Bubble.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44Two-all.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48CJ's third question. Who directed the films What Women Want,
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Something's Gotta Give and It's Complicated?
0:18:57 > 0:18:59I think it's Nora Ephron.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06I'm not entirely sure on this, but I'll go for Nora Ephron.
0:19:06 > 0:19:07Nora Ephron.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09It's wrong. It's Nancy Meyers.
0:19:09 > 0:19:13Well. Is another Egghead about to bite the dust? Joe,
0:19:13 > 0:19:17what was the title of two different films starring Joan Crawford,
0:19:17 > 0:19:21one in 1931, in which her character was called Marian Martin,
0:19:21 > 0:19:26and the other in 1947 in which she played a woman named Louise Howell?
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Well, I haven't heard of either of these films.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36Obviously they've got the same name, so it doesn't mean much.
0:19:36 > 0:19:42I'm just going to go for Possessed. Don't know if it's right, but let's see what happens.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Possessed and see what happens.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47What happens is we say goodbye to CJ. It's the correct answer.
0:19:50 > 0:19:55Another Egghead bites the dust. Well done. Both come back and join your teams.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00This is what we've been playing towards, the final round,
0:20:00 > 0:20:02general knowledge.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06But those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't take part in this round.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10Michael from Acting Clever and Pat, Daphne and CJ from the Eggheads,
0:20:10 > 0:20:12leave the studio, please.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Ciaran, Michael, Joe and Rob,
0:20:16 > 0:20:19you're playing to win Acting Clever £20,000.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23Chris and Barry, you're playing for something money can't buy.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25The Eggheads' reputation.
0:20:25 > 0:20:31I'll ask each team three questions in turn. It's all general knowledge and you're allowed to confer.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35Acting Clever, are your four brains better than the Eggheads' two?
0:20:35 > 0:20:39Would you like to go first or second?
0:20:39 > 0:20:43- Second.- It's been good luck for us. - Yeah, second's gone well so far.
0:20:43 > 0:20:44We'll go second.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Eggheads face the first question.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53Barry and Chris, John Stetson became famous in the 19th century
0:20:53 > 0:20:56for his hats designed for which occupation?
0:20:58 > 0:21:03These are the traditionally famous cowboy hats, the Stetson.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07Cowboy is correct. Stetson and cowboys of course. OK.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10Eggheads off the mark. Acting Clever, let's get you off the mark.
0:21:10 > 0:21:16In the UK, a box junction on a road is demarcated by a box of criss-cross lines
0:21:16 > 0:21:18normally painted in which colour?
0:21:21 > 0:21:24I am fairly completely certain it's yellow.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27- What do you think?- I do not know. - Yellow's OK.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30My mind leapt towards yellow.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32But then I was like...
0:21:32 > 0:21:37Even though I failed my test three times and none of us can drive, it's yellow.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42Maybe you failed because you stopped on a box junction!
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Yellow, anyway, is the right answer.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46OK. Eggheads.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50Which book of the Bible has a title that means "second law"
0:21:50 > 0:21:53because it contains a repetition of the Ten Commandments?
0:21:55 > 0:21:59The first book of the Bible that contains the Ten Commandments is Exodus.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02But the one with the second repetition is Deuteronomy.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05First repetition, sorry. Deuteronomy.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07It's the right answer, Eggheads. Deuteronomy.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10Repetition of the Ten Commandments.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13OK. Second question for Acting Clever.
0:22:13 > 0:22:18Allium cepa is the botanical name for which common foodstuff?
0:22:21 > 0:22:25- What do we think?- I know for a fact
0:22:25 > 0:22:28that allium is the Latin name for garlic.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32So it'll be something in the same genus as garlic.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34- That's the first Latin name.- OK.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Which makes me think onion, obviously. Similar to garlic.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40That's very good reasoning.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42That's the best we've got.
0:22:42 > 0:22:46- Sounds like good reasoning to me. I suggest go for it.- Yes.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48- OK. We'll go for onion.- Onion.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Well worked out. Right answer.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52Onion for allium cepa.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Two-all. Eggheads,
0:22:54 > 0:22:57crucial question.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01In which year did the children's comic The Beano first appear?
0:23:04 > 0:23:09In which year did the children's comic The Beano first appear?
0:23:09 > 0:23:11Much-loved in both of our youths.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14We think it appeared in 1938.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Right answer, Eggheads. 1938.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19The original edition of The Beano.
0:23:19 > 0:23:20You need this, Acting Clever.
0:23:20 > 0:23:26In Le Manege Enchante, the original French version of The Magic Roundabout,
0:23:26 > 0:23:30what was the name of the dog who became Dougal in the English version?
0:23:37 > 0:23:42Well, Pollux rang a bell when Dermot said it.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45Pollux. Is Pollux a dog?
0:23:45 > 0:23:49Pollux is a god, isn't it? Is there also a mythical dog?
0:23:49 > 0:23:51I've no idea. It rang a bell.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Ambroise sounds just as likely.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56- Ambroise.- I don't know what it means in French.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58What do you think?
0:23:58 > 0:24:01- If you have a strong enough hunch for Pollux.- It's a tiny hunch.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04It's a hunch all the same.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06- Go for our tiny hunch.- OK.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09We'll pick Pollux.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Go to get it or it's bye-bye, Acting Clever.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15It's the right answer!
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Dougal. Pollux became Dougal.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20Great quizzing going on there.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23Sudden Death, yet again, Eggheads.
0:24:23 > 0:24:29Which 1997 book by Sebastian Junger was the basis for a 2000 film
0:24:29 > 0:24:31starring George Clooney and Mark Wahlberg?
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Would that be Syriana?
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Yeah, it's the right age, the right time, yeah.
0:24:39 > 0:24:44- Go for it.- The only one that links Clooney and Wahlberg in our minds is Syriana.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47- Syriana, is that your answer?- Yes.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49Syriana is incorrect.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Do you know, guys?
0:24:51 > 0:24:55- The Perfect Storm. - The Perfect Storm, the film. The Perfect Storm.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Well. This would be a perfect round of quizzing
0:24:58 > 0:25:00if you get this.
0:25:01 > 0:25:06Lot of money resting on one simple question. £20,000 goes your way
0:25:06 > 0:25:08with the correct answer.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Which 20th-century philosopher
0:25:10 > 0:25:13advanced the principle of falsifiability
0:25:13 > 0:25:16which is based on the idea that scientific theories
0:25:16 > 0:25:19can never be proved, only disproved.
0:25:19 > 0:25:24I would have an inkling that it would be Bertrand Russell
0:25:24 > 0:25:28because he was into science. I'm reading a book by him at the minute.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31- It's got nowhere near that. - He was into science and maths.
0:25:31 > 0:25:37- I think Russell is definitely the strongest answer.- If it's wrong, we'll get it right next time.
0:25:37 > 0:25:38Let's go for it, then.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42We'd like to go for Bertrand Russell.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44£20,000 on Bertrand Russell.
0:25:44 > 0:25:49It's not the right answer. It's not Bertrand Russell.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52- It's Karl Popper.- Ah.- Karl Popper.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55Both getting your questions wrong.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57So you face another question. Eggheads.
0:25:57 > 0:26:02What's the name of the first character to speak in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night?
0:26:02 > 0:26:06The name of the first character to speak in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night?
0:26:06 > 0:26:08- Yeah. Orsino.- You're right.
0:26:09 > 0:26:14He famously says, "If music be the food of love, play on, or give me surfeit of it."
0:26:14 > 0:26:15It's the Duke Orsino.
0:26:15 > 0:26:19Duke Orsino is correct. And you quoted the line.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22Here's your next one, Acting Clever.
0:26:22 > 0:26:27In British history, Lady Margaret Beaufort was mother of which king?
0:26:27 > 0:26:29CONFER QUIETLY
0:26:41 > 0:26:42So who could it be?
0:26:48 > 0:26:52It's not any of the kings after Victoria, is it?
0:26:52 > 0:26:55Because Victoria was their mother, obviously.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58The king was after Victoria.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01What about the...Hanoverians?
0:27:01 > 0:27:04Hanovers.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07- Hanoverians.- I think it's a lot earlier than that.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11- So around Richard III, Henry VI. - Right.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14After that you've got the Tudors. Henry VIII.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Could it be a Plantagenet?
0:27:16 > 0:27:18They were connected to France.
0:27:18 > 0:27:25- How about if we say Edward IV. Or is that wrong?- I've no idea.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27I know very little about this area of history.
0:27:27 > 0:27:32- What do you think?- I'll go with you. It's more your area than mine.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36- I really don't know, but we'll say Edward IV.- Edward IV.- Edward V.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39Edward V. OK.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41- We're going with Edward V, Dermot. - Edward V.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43To stay in the game.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47It's Henry VII.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Which means, Eggheads, you've won.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59Bad luck. You were discussing that very era.
0:27:59 > 0:28:03The Yorks and the Tudors. And Richard III.
0:28:03 > 0:28:09Bad luck. What a game there! You really put it to the Eggheads in the head-to-heads.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13Three sitting silently in the Question Room is testament.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16Thank you very much for playing today.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19It has been a phenomenal game of Eggheads.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21What a bunch of quizzers!
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Just didn't win the money. Thanks for taking on the Eggheads.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27The Eggheads' winning streak continues.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30I'm afraid you won't take home the £20,000.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32So the money rolls over to the next show.
0:28:32 > 0:28:36Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:36 > 0:28:40Join us next time to see if a new team can defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42£21,000 says they don't.
0:28:42 > 0:28:43Until then, goodbye.
