0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11They make up the Eggheads,

0:00:11 > 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 challengers

0:00:27 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:30 > 0:00:34They've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36They are the Eggheads.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39Taking on the awesome might of our quiz Goliaths today

0:00:39 > 0:00:41are Sir Quiztopher Wren.

0:00:41 > 0:00:45They're studying for their Blue Badge qualification,

0:00:45 > 0:00:48the award given by the Institute of Tourist Guiding,

0:00:48 > 0:00:51which allows them to become tour guides in and around London.

0:00:51 > 0:00:52Let's meet them.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56I'm David, I'm 37, and I'm a primary school teacher.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00I'm Adam, I'm 32, and I'm an actor and copywriter.

0:01:00 > 0:01:05Hello, I'm Jane, I'm 54, and I'm training to be a Blue Badge guide.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08I'm Nigel, I'm 45, and I'm a consultant.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12Hi, I'm Steven, I'm 42, and I'm a business support officer.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15Quite a mouthful for the quiz name!

0:01:15 > 0:01:18Sir Quiztopher Wren, you're very welcome!

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Sir Christopher Wren, no doubt,

0:01:21 > 0:01:24features largely in many of the tours that are led round London.

0:01:24 > 0:01:28He's pretty much the chief architect after the Great Fire of London.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32- You can't really go too far without seeing one of his churches.- I see.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35How intensive is the studying to get one of these badges?

0:01:35 > 0:01:37It's 18 months, two evenings a week,

0:01:37 > 0:01:40- and then Saturdays we have practical stuff.- OK.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Presumably, you have some kind of exam.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46- Lots of exams.- Do you have to take an examiner round?

0:01:46 > 0:01:51- We've got three coming up shortly and then another six next year.- OK.

0:01:51 > 0:01:56Every day, there's £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.

0:01:56 > 0:02:00However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the money rolls over.

0:02:00 > 0:02:04So, Sir Quiztopher Wren, the Eggheads have won the last 21 games

0:02:04 > 0:02:08and that means £22,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:08 > 0:02:13No doubt hoping for History to come up. First, it's Politics.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Who'd like to take this battle on?

0:02:16 > 0:02:20- Oh, dear!- I was hoping to stay to the end, but that's me!

0:02:20 > 0:02:23That's you straight in, Captain David there.

0:02:23 > 0:02:27You get to choose any Egghead. Any one of those five.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30I'd like to take the best-looking one, so I'll take Judith.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32- LAUGHTER - Thank you.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34Lot a competition there!

0:02:34 > 0:02:37Let's have Judith and David.

0:02:37 > 0:02:41The subject's Politics. Please go to the Question Room.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45David, do you want to go first or second?

0:02:45 > 0:02:48I know it's not very sporting, but I'll go first.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54£22,000 at stake. Here's your first question.

0:02:54 > 0:02:59What is the name of the process that a bill must pass through

0:02:59 > 0:03:03immediately after its second reading on its way to becoming law?

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Er, I don't think it's cabinet discussion,

0:03:10 > 0:03:13because I don't think that's involved.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16And I'm not too sure,

0:03:16 > 0:03:20but I think I'm going to go for Royal Assent.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22OK. Royal Assent.

0:03:22 > 0:03:26It's not the right answer. That, I think, is when it does become law.

0:03:26 > 0:03:30Before that, there's the committee stage.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33It's the next part of the process after the second reading.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36So, Judith, the UK Government's agency

0:03:36 > 0:03:39for marketing and communications

0:03:39 > 0:03:41is known as the Central Office of what?

0:03:44 > 0:03:47I think the most likely is Information.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50Information is the right answer.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53Judith has one and David needs to get off the mark.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55Second question.

0:03:55 > 0:03:59"Ergatocracy" means government by whom?

0:04:02 > 0:04:06This is why I didn't want to do Politics. Erm...

0:04:06 > 0:04:10It just would seem insane for it to be The Insane.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12I'm going to go for The Most Wealthy.

0:04:12 > 0:04:17The Most Wealthy, ergatocracy. It's the other way round.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20It's The Workers. Government by the workers.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23OK, Judith, you win the round if you get this.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25In the British political system,

0:04:25 > 0:04:30which position has traditionally referred to as "primus inter pares"?

0:04:32 > 0:04:36I think that means "first among equals".

0:04:36 > 0:04:38It's the prime minister.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40First amongst equals.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43That's what it means. I'm not sure it's how it operates!

0:04:43 > 0:04:45It's the right answer, yes.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49That makes you the prime quizzer. You're through to the Final Round.

0:04:49 > 0:04:54David, no place for you. Come back and join your teams.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Well, first round over.

0:04:56 > 0:05:00The hopes of David participating in the Final Round are over.

0:05:00 > 0:05:05The Eggheads are all still there. One of Sir Quiztopher Wren missing.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08But only one round gone. Let's get onto our second.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10This is Film & Television.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Who'd like to play this?

0:05:12 > 0:05:15- It's going to be Adam, I think. - Adam. OK.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18Which Egghead would you like to choose?

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Any one of the men there.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22I'd like... I'd love to play Chris.

0:05:22 > 0:05:26- You'd love to!- I'd love to! - Lifetime ambition fulfilled!

0:05:26 > 0:05:31- It's one of them!- OK! Let's hope you fulfil it by knocking him out!

0:05:31 > 0:05:36Adam and Chris, into the Question Room, please.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38So, Adam, a keen admirer of Chris,

0:05:38 > 0:05:40fulfilling this ambition to play him.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43- First or second? - First, please, Dermot. Thank you.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49Adam, good luck. First question.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53"Are you telling me that you built a time machine out of a DeLorean?"

0:05:53 > 0:05:55is a quote from which 1985 film?

0:05:58 > 0:06:00I know this.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03It's not The Breakfast Club. That's at a school.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06It's not Weird Science. It is Back to the Future.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10Back to the Future. The time machine made out of the DeLorean.

0:06:10 > 0:06:13Chris, you're our transport correspondent.

0:06:13 > 0:06:18The DeLorean car, made in Belfast and made famous by Hollywood.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20Gull-wing doors and...

0:06:20 > 0:06:22Quite an advanced machine. Didn't really catch on.

0:06:22 > 0:06:27The DeLorean, featuring in Back to the Future, identified by Adam.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29What was the profession of Peter Davison's character

0:06:29 > 0:06:33in the TV comedy drama A Very Peculiar Practice?

0:06:35 > 0:06:38It was peculiar, too. He was a doctor.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40Doctor is the right answer. One each.

0:06:40 > 0:06:44Adam. Which film, directed by Alfred Hitchcock,

0:06:44 > 0:06:48had the tagline "Handcuffed to the girl who double-crossed him"?

0:06:52 > 0:06:55I haven't seen Notorious.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58I have seen North By Northwest.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00I have seen The 39 Steps

0:07:00 > 0:07:04and I do remember he was handcuffed to a lady in that,

0:07:04 > 0:07:07so I think it's The 39 Steps.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09- The 39 Steps.- Yes.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11It's the right answer. Yes, The 39 Steps,

0:07:11 > 0:07:16with that tagline, "Handcuffed to the girl who double-crossed him".

0:07:16 > 0:07:18Second question, Chris.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21Which title is common to both a 1975 film

0:07:21 > 0:07:23starring Catherine Deneuve and Burt Reynolds

0:07:23 > 0:07:29and a BBC TV drama that was first aired in 2004?

0:07:32 > 0:07:34It's not New Tricks.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Erm...

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Spooks.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40- Spooks?- Mm.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42No, it's Hustle.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Oh.- Hustle.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47OK, well, great news there,

0:07:47 > 0:07:49potentially, for you.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51A correct answer and you're in the Final Round.

0:07:51 > 0:07:56In 1959, the actress Sian Phillips married which fellow thespian?

0:07:59 > 0:08:03- I've got to be honest with you, I know this one, as well.- A-ha!

0:08:03 > 0:08:06It's not Albert Finney. I don't think it's Richard Harris.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09I'm pretty sure it's Peter O'Toole.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13OK, gone for Peter O'Toole. It's the right answer.

0:08:14 > 0:08:20Booked a place in the Final Round, Adam. Come back and join your teams.

0:08:20 > 0:08:24Two rounds gone. It's all square. Both teams have lost one brain.

0:08:24 > 0:08:30Our next subject today, the third head-to-head, is on Food & Drink.

0:08:30 > 0:08:35Who likes their grub and glug? Who wants to play?

0:08:35 > 0:08:36Kevin.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39This is more like the plan!

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Good.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Jane is going to take on Kevin.

0:08:44 > 0:08:48OK. Jane's going to take on Kevin. That was thought out in advance.

0:08:48 > 0:08:54Could I ask you both to take your positions in the Question Room?

0:08:54 > 0:08:57Jane, would you like to go first or second?

0:08:57 > 0:08:59I would like to go first, please.

0:09:03 > 0:09:07Good luck. Your first question coming right up.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09Kerrs Pink and Golden Wonder

0:09:09 > 0:09:11are varieties of which food stuff?

0:09:15 > 0:09:19Well, I don't think there are enough brands of celeriac,

0:09:19 > 0:09:22and it could be onion,

0:09:22 > 0:09:27but I have a funny feeling that Kerrs Pink is a potato.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30- I'm going to plump for potato. - Potatoes.

0:09:30 > 0:09:33That's the right answer.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35Golden Wonder.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37Kevin, what term is used

0:09:37 > 0:09:40for a cup-shaped sweet cake that originated in the US,

0:09:40 > 0:09:45and for a small, round type of bread from the UK?

0:09:48 > 0:09:52Right. A small, round type of bread?

0:09:52 > 0:09:56- A small -- I didn't know the US one,

0:09:56 > 0:09:59but, erm, the other two don't fit the UK bread description,

0:09:59 > 0:10:01so that must be crumpet.

0:10:01 > 0:10:05I mean, seriously, Kevin, we are gobsmacked by that!

0:10:05 > 0:10:08We know it's not your favourite subject, but my goodness!

0:10:08 > 0:10:11- Have I not understood the question? - I think maybe not.

0:10:11 > 0:10:15- Oh, it's a muffin. - It's a muffin. Yes, it's a muffin.

0:10:15 > 0:10:19Well, fantastic from your point of view, Jane. Not for Kevin.

0:10:19 > 0:10:25A nonic is a type of glass designed for which alcoholic drink?

0:10:26 > 0:10:28N-O-N-I-C.

0:10:28 > 0:10:33A nonic is a type of glass designed for which alcoholic drink?

0:10:33 > 0:10:36Well, I don't know.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39Nonic, to me, sounds like it's a unit

0:10:39 > 0:10:43to do with the number nine.

0:10:43 > 0:10:48Er, I don't think they sell beer in ninths.

0:10:48 > 0:10:53It's either brandy, and they think that there's nine units in a bottle,

0:10:53 > 0:10:56or they think it's wine, and there are nine units in a bottle,

0:10:56 > 0:10:58which would make for a jolly small glass.

0:10:58 > 0:11:03Er... I think I'll plump for brandy.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Brandy, a nonic.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07- It's actually beer.- Ahh.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10I'm listening to your logic and thinking, "Why is it beer?"

0:11:10 > 0:11:12I'm going to ask the Eggheads.

0:11:12 > 0:11:16Presumably the linguistic route that Jane identified is correct?

0:11:16 > 0:11:20No. It's a new type of beer glass that won't nick.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23- It's to avoid glassing incidents in pubs.- Oh, my goodness!

0:11:23 > 0:11:26- No-Nick.- It's for safety reasons.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29Well, the explanation from Pat there.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31You're still in the lead.

0:11:31 > 0:11:36Kevin, what is the meaning of the Italian word "cacciatore",

0:11:36 > 0:11:40often used in English to describe a stew or casserole?

0:11:42 > 0:11:46What is the meaning of the Italian word "cacciatore",

0:11:46 > 0:11:50often used in English to describe a stew or casserole?

0:11:50 > 0:11:52It's a hunter's stew.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Hunter stew. Correct.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56He's back in the game.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59Dangerous when injured, these Eggheads.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01It's all square. Jane...

0:12:01 > 0:12:06What type of food is the traditional Swiss product called sbrinz?

0:12:09 > 0:12:13Again, I don't know. Erm...

0:12:13 > 0:12:19Pickled cabbage, I'd expect a more familiar word.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21I'm going to plump for hard cheese.

0:12:21 > 0:12:25If it's from Switzerland, go for cheese! It's the right answer!

0:12:25 > 0:12:29Swiss cheese. Hard cheese.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32OK. Kevin, you need to get this one.

0:12:32 > 0:12:37Which style of sherry has a Spanish name that translates as "fragrant"?

0:12:41 > 0:12:45I'm taking my time. I think I know which one it is.

0:12:45 > 0:12:50Fragrant, in terms of the nose and all of that, it's Oloroso.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52It is.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54He's back in it.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57It's going to Sudden Death, Jane.

0:12:57 > 0:13:01That means, as I'm sure you're aware, that we remove the choices.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05Which variety of lentil, distinctive for its dark green colouring,

0:13:05 > 0:13:09is named after the capital of the Haute-Loir Department

0:13:09 > 0:13:10in south-central France?

0:13:10 > 0:13:13That's a puy lentil, Dermot.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16It is, Jane! Puy lentils.

0:13:16 > 0:13:19Grown in Le Puy-en-Velay.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21Again, Kevin, you've got to get this.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23What is the surname of the French chef

0:13:23 > 0:13:26who wrote the 1903 reference book "Le Guide Culinaire",

0:13:26 > 0:13:30and is known for his instruction to chefs, "faites simple",

0:13:30 > 0:13:32"keep it simple"?

0:13:32 > 0:13:34Lots of famous French chefs, of course.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Le Guide Culinaire...

0:13:37 > 0:13:41The only thing I can think of is Le Roux, and I don't think it's him.

0:13:41 > 0:13:46Erm... There are two very famous French chefs of the time,

0:13:46 > 0:13:50both of whose names I know perfectly well,

0:13:50 > 0:13:53and they're just not surfacing.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56The names, I'm afraid... There's nothing.

0:13:56 > 0:14:01- I'll say Le Roux, but it's not right.- OK.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03- I'm sorry.- Le Roux is your answer.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06And, as you probably know, that's incorrect.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09Do you know, Jane? It doesn't matter if you don't.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12- My guess is Escoffier. - Escoffier. It's the right answer.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- That's what I was trying to think of.- Escoffier!

0:14:15 > 0:14:17That's a two-point victory.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20Interesting that you knew that. A below-par Kevin,

0:14:20 > 0:14:24but it doesn't make your performance any less impressive, Jane.

0:14:24 > 0:14:29You're through to the Final Round. Come back and join your teams.

0:14:29 > 0:14:33Well, it's changing very rapidly, this game.

0:14:33 > 0:14:37As it stands, the challengers have knocked two Eggheads out,

0:14:37 > 0:14:38and one of them has gone.

0:14:38 > 0:14:42We reach our last head-to-head before the Final Round.

0:14:42 > 0:14:47This one is Sport. Nigel or Steve can play this.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51- Let me do it. - Steve's very good at Sport,

0:14:51 > 0:14:54- but we're going to hold him back and use Nigel.- Thank you!- Down boy!

0:14:54 > 0:14:56OK...

0:14:56 > 0:15:00Nigel, who would you like to play? Judith, Chris and Kevin have played.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03You have, therefore, Barry or Pat.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06- Barry.- I think take Barry.

0:15:06 > 0:15:12- I think we'll go for Barry. - OK. Nigel playing Barry on Sport.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15Both of you into the Question Room, then.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Nigel, first or second?

0:15:17 > 0:15:20First, please, Dermot.

0:15:22 > 0:15:23Nigel, first question.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26The reigning World Champion in Formula 1

0:15:26 > 0:15:28traditionally has which number on their car?

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Well, I have to confess,

0:15:33 > 0:15:37my geography revision probably won't help on this one.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39Erm...

0:15:40 > 0:15:44I don't know the answer. I can't see why it would be ten.

0:15:44 > 0:15:48I think the most logical construct would be zero or one.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51So I suppose I'll have to go for one, please.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54That's the right answer. Well done.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58Barry, the title of Champion Lady Rider,

0:15:58 > 0:16:01awarded to the winner of the most amateur horse races,

0:16:01 > 0:16:05was won by which TV sports presenter in 1990?

0:16:07 > 0:16:09The only one of those ladies

0:16:09 > 0:16:12that I know is actively involved in horse racing

0:16:12 > 0:16:14is Clare Balding, so I shall go for Clare Balding.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17Good choice. It's the right answer.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19OK, Nigel, in cricket,

0:16:19 > 0:16:22a correctly-played leg glance by the batsman

0:16:22 > 0:16:25directs the ball towards which fielding position?

0:16:27 > 0:16:30It's a few years since I've played cricket,

0:16:30 > 0:16:34but I believe gully and mid-off would take it onto the offside,

0:16:34 > 0:16:36so I think the answer has to be fine leg.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39It does indeed. Fine leg's correct.

0:16:40 > 0:16:44Barry, in 2010, golf professionals

0:16:44 > 0:16:47Scott McCarron and Phil Mickelson were involved in a controversy

0:16:47 > 0:16:50over the design of which aspect of a golf club?

0:16:53 > 0:16:57Mm... I don't remember this one. Let's have a think about it.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00I can't imagine there'd be much controversy over the grip,

0:17:00 > 0:17:02because I can't see that different grips would...

0:17:02 > 0:17:05..give much of an advantage to anyone.

0:17:05 > 0:17:06Similarly with the shaft.

0:17:06 > 0:17:10But I can see that controversy over the grooves

0:17:10 > 0:17:12would affect the way the club would play,

0:17:12 > 0:17:14so I'll say the grooves.

0:17:14 > 0:17:18Grooves. Good analysis. Right answer. Well done, Barry.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21All square into the third question.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Will this decide who plays in the Final Round?

0:17:23 > 0:17:27Which club was the first to win the top division in English football

0:17:27 > 0:17:30for three seasons in succession?

0:17:33 > 0:17:37Apologies to any Sunderland fans, but I'm pretty sure it's not them.

0:17:37 > 0:17:42I know Huddersfield, in the early 20th century, probably did that.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44Whether Blackburn did, as well, I'm not too sure.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48Out of those, I think I'm going to have to go for Huddersfield Town.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51Huddersfield Town. Three successive championships.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54It's the right answer. Well done.

0:17:56 > 0:17:57Under the cosh here, Barry.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01Knightshayes Court in Devon and Hartham Park in Wiltshire

0:18:01 > 0:18:05are the locations of the only two playable courts in the UK

0:18:05 > 0:18:07for which indoor sport?

0:18:11 > 0:18:13Devon and Wiltshire...

0:18:13 > 0:18:15I can't imagine it's rackets.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18I'm sure there must be more racket courts in the country.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21And I've never heard of sticke tennis,

0:18:21 > 0:18:24- so I shall say Winchester fives. - Winchester fives.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26It's the wrong answer.

0:18:26 > 0:18:29- It's sticke tennis. - I knew I should've gone for that!

0:18:29 > 0:18:31We turn our attention to Nigel

0:18:31 > 0:18:36and say you also are playing in the Final Round for £22,000.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:18:41 > 0:18:44This is what we've been playing towards, the Final Round,

0:18:44 > 0:18:46which, as always, is general knowledge.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48Those who lost your head-to-heads

0:18:48 > 0:18:51won't be allowed to take part.

0:18:51 > 0:18:52So Dave from Sir Quiztopher Wren,

0:18:52 > 0:18:55and Chris, Barry and Kevin from the Eggheads,

0:18:55 > 0:18:58would you leave the studio, please?

0:18:58 > 0:19:00Adam, Jane, Nigel and Steven,

0:19:00 > 0:19:04you're playing to win Sir Quiztopher Wren £22,000.

0:19:04 > 0:19:08Pat and Judith, you're playing for something which money can't buy,

0:19:08 > 0:19:10the Eggheads' reputation.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13I'll ask each team three questions in turn.

0:19:13 > 0:19:16They are general knowledge. You are allowed to confer.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18The question is, are your four brains

0:19:18 > 0:19:20better than the Eggheads' two?

0:19:20 > 0:19:23Sir Quiztopher Wren, would you like to go first or second?

0:19:23 > 0:19:27First has been successful so far, so we'll go first.

0:19:30 > 0:19:34Right, then, good luck in the Final Round.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Let's see if you can win the money.

0:19:36 > 0:19:40Who represented the UK at the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest,

0:19:40 > 0:19:43coming last with ten points?

0:19:47 > 0:19:49- I think it was a boy, a man. - It was a man.

0:19:49 > 0:19:52- Definitely a man. - I remember it was a man.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54- Definitely a solo artist.- Josh?- Yes.

0:19:55 > 0:19:58We think it was a solo artist and a man, as well.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01We're going to go for Josh Dubovie.

0:20:01 > 0:20:03OK. Josh Dubovie.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Right answer. Yes, well done.

0:20:08 > 0:20:13OK, Eggheads, which superhero and alter ego of Mr Benny Krupp

0:20:13 > 0:20:16features in the titles of children's books

0:20:16 > 0:20:19by the American author Dav Pilkey?

0:20:23 > 0:20:27- No idea!- Doesn't mean very much to me.- Me, either.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Captain Underpants.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32- That's quite jolly.- Major Bloomers. - Major Bloomers.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35- General Y-Fronts.- I have no idea.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38I haven't heard of these books.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41Do the Americans speak of underpants? I don't think they do.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44- Do they speak of Y-fronts?- They do.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47Bloomer was obviously a woman from America, so...

0:20:47 > 0:20:49It's not very much to go on,

0:20:49 > 0:20:52but I don't think underpants is an American thing.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55I think that's a very British name.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57Captain Underpants sounds more superhero-ish,

0:20:57 > 0:21:00but there's that slight linguistic argument.

0:21:00 > 0:21:03Which one? I trust your instinct.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07- Major Bloomers. - Incorrect. It's Captain Underpants.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09Which, I heard you say,

0:21:09 > 0:21:12was your instinct and switched it at the last minute.

0:21:12 > 0:21:14So, Sir Quiztopher Wren,

0:21:14 > 0:21:17which two colours appear on the flag of Greenland

0:21:17 > 0:21:20that was officially adopted in 1985?

0:21:24 > 0:21:26NIGEL: I think it's blue and white.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28- My instinct's blue and white.- OK.

0:21:28 > 0:21:31I don't know. But if it was adopted by Denmark,

0:21:31 > 0:21:35will it be a reverse of the Danish flag and be red and white?

0:21:35 > 0:21:38I don't know, but I'd say more than 50 percent that it's blue and white.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40OK, as you can tell,

0:21:40 > 0:21:43we don't actually know the answer, so we're having to figure out.

0:21:43 > 0:21:49It's a toss up between whether it's blue or red.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52- And we think it's...- Blue.- Blue.

0:21:52 > 0:21:55The consensus is, we think it's blue and white.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57OK. Blue and white.

0:21:57 > 0:22:01It's red and white. Red and white. The other one you were thinking of.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03Bit like the Eggheads,

0:22:03 > 0:22:06tossing up between two and getting the wrong one.

0:22:06 > 0:22:10Eggheads, what's the name of the monthly film magazine,

0:22:10 > 0:22:12published by the British Film Institute,

0:22:12 > 0:22:15that first appeared in 1932?

0:22:19 > 0:22:21Empire is a magazine,

0:22:21 > 0:22:26- but I think it's a standard commercial film magazine.- Yes.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30Sight & Sound is all about synthesizers and mixing desks.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33I don't think it's concerned with cinema at all.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36I thought Sight & Sound was a film magazine.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38If you think so.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41Sight & Sound? If you think it's a film magazine...

0:22:41 > 0:22:44- I think it is.- Sight & Sound? - I thought that was a film magazine.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47- OK.- That was my immediate instinct.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49- Do you want to? - If you don't blame me if it's wrong.

0:22:49 > 0:22:53I think Empire's a straightforward commercial magazine.

0:22:53 > 0:22:57- We'll go with Sight & Sound.- OK. - We're going for Sight & Sound.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59Sight & Sound.

0:22:59 > 0:23:01It's the right answer.

0:23:01 > 0:23:05- Thank God for that. - Well played, Judith Keppel!

0:23:05 > 0:23:10Yep! Sight & Sound, the magazine of the British Film Institute.

0:23:10 > 0:23:12So, Sir Quiztopher Wren,

0:23:12 > 0:23:16the muskox is native to which region?

0:23:18 > 0:23:21- The muskox... - There's not a lot in the Arctic.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25- It gets cold in the Himalayas. - I think it's going to be...

0:23:25 > 0:23:28The Himalayas sounds most likely.

0:23:28 > 0:23:31You would get yaks and things like that.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33It sounds more like the Himalayas.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36- I'll go with that. - We'll go with Himalayas?

0:23:36 > 0:23:40We don't think they live in the Sahara.

0:23:40 > 0:23:44Once again, we're not particularly certain, so it's a choice of two.

0:23:44 > 0:23:50We think... We don't think we've heard of them in the Arctic,

0:23:50 > 0:23:53- so we're going for Himalayas. - Himalayas for the muskox.

0:23:53 > 0:23:57It's native to... the Arctic.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59Not the Himalayas.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01I can't believe I'm saying this,

0:24:01 > 0:24:04Eggheads, you win the round if you answer correctly here.

0:24:04 > 0:24:08The subacromial space is in which part of the human body?

0:24:10 > 0:24:12Subacromial - "underneath".

0:24:12 > 0:24:15"Acromial..." "Acro" is high.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18Doesn't help. It could be any of the three.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21The brain is the most complicated, so it's got the most scope

0:24:21 > 0:24:25for having little cavities and little recesses.

0:24:25 > 0:24:32The hip has got the general saddle-shaped pelvic bone

0:24:32 > 0:24:34The shoulder has the clavicle and scapula.

0:24:34 > 0:24:39- It hasn't got space under it, the hip.- My instinct is the brain.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41I think it's the best percentage.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44- We're just going on percentages here.- OK.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46The sheer complexity of the brain

0:24:46 > 0:24:51makes it more likely to have such a spot in it.

0:24:51 > 0:24:55The subacromial space in the brain, to win the game, Eggheads...

0:24:55 > 0:25:00It is in the shoulder. It's incorrect. You play on.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02A let-off.

0:25:02 > 0:25:06In just three questions, this game has swung back and forth.

0:25:06 > 0:25:11The Eggheads are all over the place! It's all down to Sudden Death.

0:25:11 > 0:25:15In the technology of flat-panel televisions,

0:25:15 > 0:25:20for what does the "O" stand in the abbreviation "OLED"?

0:25:20 > 0:25:23OLED. We want the O.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25Organic Light-Emitting Diode.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27- The "O" is Organic.- Yes.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30OK, we think the "O" stands for Organic, Dermot.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33- Organic?- Organic. - Right answer.- Well done, Nigel.

0:25:33 > 0:25:35What was the rest of it?

0:25:35 > 0:25:38- Light-Emitting Diode? - Yes. That's it in full.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41Eggheads, Rue Crebillon

0:25:41 > 0:25:44is the heart of the shopping district in which French city,

0:25:44 > 0:25:46the birthplace of Jules Verne?

0:25:46 > 0:25:49I think Jules Verne...

0:25:49 > 0:25:51..was born in either Nancy or Nantes.

0:25:51 > 0:25:56- In fact, I think it was Nantes. - Was he?- I don't know.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58Nantes. Jules Verne.

0:25:58 > 0:26:03- I think he was born over towards the west.- Of Nantes? OK, it's yours.

0:26:03 > 0:26:08I have a feeling that Jules Verne was born in Nantes.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11Nantes. It is the right answer.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13Nantes.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16Back we go to Sir Quiztopher Wren.

0:26:16 > 0:26:19John Birks were the first two names

0:26:19 > 0:26:24of which world-famous jazz musician who died in 1993?

0:26:24 > 0:26:27John Birks were the first two names

0:26:27 > 0:26:32of which world-famous jazz musician who died in 1993?

0:26:32 > 0:26:35- Jazz music...- Jazz musicians...

0:26:35 > 0:26:37- Humphrey Lyttelton? - He died after that.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40John Birks... Is it someone "JB"?

0:26:40 > 0:26:43- Is it John Coltrane?- JB... - JB someone.

0:26:43 > 0:26:47- Is he more blues? - Is he more blues than jazz?

0:26:47 > 0:26:49I think he's more blues.

0:26:49 > 0:26:51JB something...

0:26:51 > 0:26:53Not necessarily. It could just be known as...

0:26:53 > 0:26:55Buzz somebody or other!

0:26:55 > 0:26:58Fats Domino or Muddy Waters, something like that.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00It's not Muddy Waters.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03We're not going to do any better than John Coltrane.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05- Go with him, yes?- Yes.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07We're going to go with John Coltrane.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09John Coltrane.

0:27:09 > 0:27:12It's not the right answer. Do you know, Eggheads?

0:27:12 > 0:27:14- Dizzy Gillespie?- Dizzy Gillespie.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17Dizzy Gillespie died in 1993.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20Well, another chance for the Eggheads.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23What was the name of the novel by Richard Llewellyn

0:27:23 > 0:27:25which was published in the 1930s

0:27:25 > 0:27:29and told the story of a poor Welsh family named the Morgans?

0:27:29 > 0:27:31What was the name of the novel by Richard Llewellyn

0:27:31 > 0:27:33which was published in the 1930s

0:27:33 > 0:27:37and told the story of a poor Welsh family named the Morgans?

0:27:37 > 0:27:41- It fits the bill.- I think it is. - Leading to the big film.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43- Happy with that?- Yes.

0:27:43 > 0:27:46We're going for How Green Was My Valley?

0:27:46 > 0:27:49How Green Was My Valley by Richard Llewellyn.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52It's the right answer, Eggheads! You've won.

0:27:58 > 0:27:59After an inept, tentative,

0:27:59 > 0:28:03- fumbling and bumbling performance by the Eggheads...- Enough!

0:28:03 > 0:28:06The first three questions, they were all over the place.

0:28:06 > 0:28:09Just not to be. Just couldn't get one of those other questions right.

0:28:09 > 0:28:14You covered yourself in glory. Didn't get the £22,000.

0:28:14 > 0:28:20But some great quizzing and good luck with all those exams.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22The Eggheads did what comes naturally.

0:28:22 > 0:28:24Their winning streak continues.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27You won't be going home with the £22,000.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30That means the money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?

0:28:32 > 0:28:35Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers

0:28:35 > 0:28:37have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:37 > 0:28:41£23,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
