0:00:04 > 0:00:07These 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 quiz challengers

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

0:00:30 > 0:00:34You might recognise them, as they've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows,

0:00:34 > 0:00:37they are the Eggheads!

0:00:37 > 0:00:39And challenging our resident quiz champions today

0:00:39 > 0:00:42are Money For Nothing. This team of colleagues all work together

0:00:42 > 0:00:45in the Revenues Office of Falkirk Council.

0:00:45 > 0:00:46Let's meet them.

0:00:46 > 0:00:50Hi, I'm Kat, I'm 26 and I'm a revenues assistant.

0:00:50 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Malcolm, I'm 42, I'm a finance manager.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Paul, I'm 38 and I'm a revenues manager.

0:00:57 > 0:01:01Hi, I'm Alan, I'm 30 and I'm a finance manager.

0:01:01 > 0:01:05Hi, I'm Emma, I'm 23 and I'm a revenues assistant.

0:01:05 > 0:01:09Welcome to you, Money For Nothing. What you're trying to do here is win the Eggheads' money.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Have you done any quizzing in the past?

0:01:11 > 0:01:17- Do you work together as a team? - We work together in various offices throughout the area,

0:01:17 > 0:01:19but we've not done a huge amount of quizzing.

0:01:19 > 0:01:25- We did one at a local primary school which was questionable. - OK, right, we'll leave it at that.

0:01:25 > 0:01:30- So how have you prepared for this? Watching Eggheads, thinking who you might play...?- A lot!- Yeah.

0:01:30 > 0:01:34Put that plan into operation right now, then. I'll tell you what's happened.

0:01:34 > 0:01:38Every day there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.

0:01:38 > 0:01:42However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44So, Money For Nothing, the Eggheads have won the last two games.

0:01:44 > 0:01:49That means £3,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51Our first Head-To-Head today is Music.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54- Who'd like to play this one? - Everyone.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56- They're nodding at me. - Right, back to you, then, Kat.

0:01:56 > 0:02:00- And, Kat, you choose an Egghead, then, any of those five.- CJ?- Yeah.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03- Can I go against CJ, then, please? - OK.

0:02:03 > 0:02:07Kat and CJ, into the Question Room, please, just to make sure you can't confer.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11So, Kat, tell me about SMUT?

0:02:12 > 0:02:18- I'm not being rude! - It's a ukulele band that we formed as a bit of joke two years ago.

0:02:18 > 0:02:23It's an acronym. It stands for Scottish Multicoloured Ukulele Troupe.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26Scottish Multicoloured Ukulele Troupe?

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Is it multicoloured because of what you wear or because of the ukuleles?

0:02:28 > 0:02:33It started off because we bought really cheap ukuleles that were all bright colours.

0:02:33 > 0:02:38Unfortunately now a lot of them have bought fancy ones that are just plain wood,

0:02:38 > 0:02:39so we just tend to wear bright colours.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Do you play any other instruments, Kat?

0:02:41 > 0:02:44I play the clarinet as well.

0:02:44 > 0:02:48- At the same time?- No. No, I've not grown that extra arm yet, unfortunately.

0:02:48 > 0:02:52Would you like to go first or second in this?

0:02:52 > 0:02:53I'll go first, please.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00All right, Kat. Good luck, Kat. What's the title of the Beach Boys' hit single

0:03:00 > 0:03:05that starts with the line "Well, East Coast girls are hip, I really dig those styles they wear"?

0:03:10 > 0:03:13I'll be in trouble for not knowing this Beach Boys one, I'm afraid!

0:03:13 > 0:03:17I don't think it's California Girls.

0:03:17 > 0:03:22That's Katy Perry. If it's East Coast,

0:03:22 > 0:03:26I'd take my guesses that it's probably Florida Girls.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29So I'll cross my fingers and go for that one, I think.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32All right. Seeing you have Florida Girls being on the East,

0:03:32 > 0:03:36but it's the East Coast girls who visited the West Coast

0:03:36 > 0:03:40for the California Girls...is the song there, the Beach Boys number.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42OK, CJ...

0:03:42 > 0:03:49what was the name of the animated creature created to front the 1989 chart-topping single Swing The Mood?

0:03:52 > 0:03:55That was Jive Bunny.

0:03:55 > 0:03:56Jive Bunny is correct.

0:03:59 > 0:04:00Kat,

0:04:00 > 0:04:04the pop star Robyn who had a UK Top Ten single in 1998

0:04:04 > 0:04:07with Show Me Love was born in which country?

0:04:10 > 0:04:13I don't actually remember the song, to tell the truth.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16So it's going to be another guess...

0:04:16 > 0:04:18I don't remember a huge amount of music

0:04:18 > 0:04:23coming out of Switzerland particularly...or Sri Lanka.

0:04:23 > 0:04:27So again it's a complete guess, but I'll go for Sweden.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Sweden, that's correct, Kat, yes.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34Got one there. OK, CJ...

0:04:34 > 0:04:39Bill Evans, born in 1929, was one of the most influential jazz musicians

0:04:39 > 0:04:41of the 20th century on which instrument?

0:04:43 > 0:04:47I know less than nothing about jazz.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50Well, if it was piano, maybe I would have heard of him.

0:04:50 > 0:04:55The name's not even ringing a bell, so I really have nothing to work on.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57Er...

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Clarinet or trumpet, they're the two...

0:05:00 > 0:05:02I'm going to choose between.

0:05:02 > 0:05:06Maybe he was a huge influence on Kat and he plays the clarinet.

0:05:06 > 0:05:11I was going to say we've got a clarinettist in that Question Room.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15- Clarinet or trumpet? Neither of those, it was the piano...- OK.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19..Piano...Bill Evans played. OK...

0:05:19 > 0:05:24That's great news, Kat. It's all square still and you get the lead if you get this right.

0:05:24 > 0:05:31Which composer wrote operas entitled Alfonso Und Estrella and Fierrabras,

0:05:31 > 0:05:34neither of which were performed during his lifetime?

0:05:36 > 0:05:41I would think... they sound kind of German, so...

0:05:41 > 0:05:45- probably go for Schubert...- OK. - I think.

0:05:45 > 0:05:50You've gone for Schubert, and you've got it right. Well done, Kat!

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Well, this is quite a recovery

0:05:52 > 0:05:55from getting the first one wrong.

0:05:55 > 0:05:59OK, CJ. Kwasi Danquah is the real name of which artist

0:05:59 > 0:06:04who had a UK Top Ten single in 2009 with Take Me Back?

0:06:08 > 0:06:11Well, I don't know this, but simply going on the name,

0:06:11 > 0:06:12Chipmunk as far as I know is English.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18Tinchy Stryder, I think, is English as well.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22Er... Tinie Tempah I've just never heard of.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25Take Me Back...

0:06:25 > 0:06:28I do not recognise the name, so I'll try Tinie Tempah

0:06:28 > 0:06:29cos I've never heard of him.

0:06:29 > 0:06:33OK, Tinie Tempah. It's Tinchy Stryder.

0:06:33 > 0:06:38It is Tinchy Stryder. Which means, Kat, what a revival!

0:06:38 > 0:06:44You didn't get the Beach Boys, it doesn't matter now. You're surfing into the final round.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47Would you both, please, come back and join your teams?

0:06:48 > 0:06:52Well, Kat's never-say-die attitude carrying her into the final round.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55It means the Eggheads are missing at least one brain from that final round.

0:06:55 > 0:07:00Our next Head-To-Head is going to be on the subject of Sport. Who'd like to play this one?

0:07:00 > 0:07:02- Do you want to do it?- Malcolm?

0:07:02 > 0:07:05- I'd say you should do it, Malcolm. - I'll do it, then.

0:07:05 > 0:07:11- OK, Malcolm, and choose an Egghead. It can't be CJ, he's just played, of course.- Judith?- Judith.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13- OK, I'll play Judith, please.- OK.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16It's going to be Malcolm and Judith playing Sport.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19Would you both, please, take your positions in the Question Room?

0:07:19 > 0:07:22Malcolm, would you like to go first or second?

0:07:22 > 0:07:23First, please.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28Good luck, Malcolm. Here you go.

0:07:28 > 0:07:32In tennis, when both sides have reached deuce, the next point is known by which term?

0:07:35 > 0:07:38That would be advantage there.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40It certainly would be. Advantage you!

0:07:40 > 0:07:42Judith,

0:07:42 > 0:07:47which position is most associated with the footballer Steven Gerrard?

0:07:49 > 0:07:51Well, he's not a goalkeeper.

0:07:51 > 0:07:55So he's one of the others, and he scores goals, I think,

0:07:55 > 0:07:57so he's a midfielder.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Very good, Judith.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02Have you been studying...? Of course you watched the World Cup.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04- I did, yes, bits of it.- Yeah.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06- He scored in that, didn't he? Can you remember?- No...

0:08:06 > 0:08:10- I can't remember that.- One of the two goals they did score.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13Yeah, it was the first goal England scored, the first of two,

0:08:13 > 0:08:15against the USA, early on.

0:08:15 > 0:08:20And, Malcolm, twin brothers, Michael and Richard Hills,

0:08:20 > 0:08:24followed their father Barry Hills into top-level competition in which sport?

0:08:27 > 0:08:31Unfortunately, it's going to be a complete and utter guess...

0:08:31 > 0:08:33and...

0:08:34 > 0:08:38..I think my guess will go down the line of rallying, please.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Rallying for the Hills family. Twins Michael and Richard

0:08:41 > 0:08:44and Barry all involved in... Do you know, Judith? Is it rallying?

0:08:44 > 0:08:47- It's racing.- Yeah, it's horseracing, that's right.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Horseracing, not rallying.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51So, Judith,

0:08:51 > 0:08:56chance for the lead. Golf's 2010 US Open was held at which course?

0:08:58 > 0:09:01It is Pebble Beach.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05Yes, it is. OK, correct then.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Judith, going well in this!

0:09:07 > 0:09:11- With pure luck, I can tell you. - 2 there, and means you've got to get this, Malcolm.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14In 2009 the most valuable player award at the NBA finals

0:09:14 > 0:09:18was named in honour of which former basketball player for the Boston Celtics?

0:09:23 > 0:09:28Unfortunately basketball is definitely not my strongest subject!

0:09:28 > 0:09:33And on the basis that I have actually heard the name

0:09:33 > 0:09:35- I will say Larry Bird.- Larry Bird.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39Has that gone through the hoop for you?

0:09:39 > 0:09:41It's not Larry Bird. Do you know, Judith?

0:09:41 > 0:09:44- Robert Parish?- No.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Anyone else? It's Bill Russell.

0:09:46 > 0:09:50And that means, Judith, you've won the round.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52Another strong performance there.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54A lot of people pick you to play Sport,

0:09:54 > 0:09:56but they're finding out you're good at it.

0:09:56 > 0:10:01It's purely... I don't tread on the lines as I go to the Question Room.

0:10:01 > 0:10:05Oh, is that what it is, don't tread on the cracks? And guess successfully.

0:10:05 > 0:10:09There was more than guessing in that performance. It means Judith's in the final round,

0:10:09 > 0:10:13and no place for you, Malcolm. Would you both, please, come back and join your teams?

0:10:13 > 0:10:19Well, a finely balanced game at the moment. Both teams have lost one brain from the final round.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22And our next subject today is Science.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24Who'd like to play Science?

0:10:24 > 0:10:29- Alan!- Paul, Alan or Emma?- I think it'll probably be myself, Dermot. - OK, Alan.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32And your Egghead... it's either Daphne, Kevin or Pat.

0:10:32 > 0:10:37- I think it's got to be Daphne. - Got to be Daphne. - It's got to be Daphne.- Why's that?

0:10:37 > 0:10:39You've always wanted to play her?

0:10:39 > 0:10:43I once said, after watching Eggheads, how much I liked Daphne's quizzing ability.

0:10:43 > 0:10:48She seems to never know the answer when she's guessing and always picks the right one!

0:10:48 > 0:10:54How does it happen? Well, you're going to see it up close and personal there in the Question Room.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57That's where you both must head, please, Alan and Daphne.

0:10:57 > 0:11:02Well, Alan, in your enthusiasm to play Daphne, have you picked the right subject for you?

0:11:02 > 0:11:08- Do you enjoy Science? Have you got a scientific background?- I do enjoy watching science programmes,

0:11:08 > 0:11:14- but I also studied maths and physics at university.- OK. Right, well qualified to play it, then.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17- Do you want to go first or second? - Can I go first, please, Dermot?

0:11:20 > 0:11:22OK, first question. Alan, good luck.

0:11:22 > 0:11:27In laser printers and photocopiers, what is the fine, electrically charged powdered ink

0:11:27 > 0:11:29that forms the image by fusing to paper?

0:11:31 > 0:11:36Having to order this at work quite a lot for the photocopier,

0:11:36 > 0:11:39hopefully, I'm ordering the right stuff,

0:11:39 > 0:11:42and usually it's toner that I ask for.

0:11:42 > 0:11:45I'm sure it'll come out all right if you do that. Toner is correct.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47Daphne,

0:11:47 > 0:11:51what type of medical condition does the term myalgia describe?

0:11:54 > 0:11:57That would be muscle pain.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59You get that in your left elbow

0:11:59 > 0:12:03when you're clattering CJ every now and again?

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Muscle pain, correct.

0:12:05 > 0:12:11OK, Alan, what's the chemical symbol for the metallic element hafnium?

0:12:14 > 0:12:19What I would say... H is usually hydrogen.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22So I'm left with a choice of Ha or Hf.

0:12:22 > 0:12:26Between the other two, I'm really not sure,

0:12:26 > 0:12:31but I think I'm going to trump straight down the middle

0:12:31 > 0:12:33and go for Ha, please.

0:12:33 > 0:12:38- Ha for hafnium. Daphne, what do you think?- Hf.- It's Hf.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40Hf. OK...

0:12:40 > 0:12:43Chance for Daphne to take the lead, then.

0:12:43 > 0:12:48Which mammal has a North American species called the castor canadensis

0:12:48 > 0:12:51and a European species known as the castor fiber?

0:12:53 > 0:13:00Well, I always associate castor with beavers.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03So that's what I'll go for.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05OK, beaver's the right answer.

0:13:05 > 0:13:10Yes, correct there, worked out the castor bit.

0:13:10 > 0:13:11OK, means you need to get this, Alan.

0:13:11 > 0:13:16The Sphinx Observatory, which is the highest space observatory in Europe, is in which country?

0:13:19 > 0:13:20Right, er...

0:13:20 > 0:13:23I'm really not sure about this one, either...

0:13:23 > 0:13:28but, given that it's going to be the highest, er...

0:13:28 > 0:13:31I'm not aware of Spain or Slovenia

0:13:31 > 0:13:34having that kind of height of mountain ranges...

0:13:34 > 0:13:36whereas Switzerland obviously does.

0:13:36 > 0:13:40So in that case I'm going to go with Switzerland, please.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42- OK, going for Switzerland because of the Alps?- Yeah.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44Right answer. Yes, well done.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50Back on track, but is it too late? Here's Daphne's third question.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54Which Arctic-dwelling whale is also known as the Greenland Right whale?

0:13:56 > 0:13:58I really don't know.

0:14:00 > 0:14:01SHE SIGHS

0:14:01 > 0:14:04- The fin.- The fin?

0:14:04 > 0:14:07Now, Alan, you wanted to observe this up close and personal?

0:14:07 > 0:14:11We've had the "I don't know", the sigh, that's crucial...

0:14:11 > 0:14:13and then the guess. And...

0:14:13 > 0:14:16usually it goes green, but do you know what? This time it isn't!

0:14:16 > 0:14:18- I knew it was wrong.- It is bowhead.

0:14:18 > 0:14:22- Maybe the fact you've rumbled her has put her off, Alan!- Hopefully!

0:14:22 > 0:14:26So all square. All square and into Sudden Death.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29Alan, I think, getting stronger there.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32So can you tell me this, Alan? What is the common name

0:14:32 > 0:14:36for the objects which can form in the body and cause extreme pain

0:14:36 > 0:14:40that doctors refer to as renal calculi?

0:14:40 > 0:14:45Er...I'm really not sure on this one either,

0:14:45 > 0:14:49but I would maybe go with the gallstones.

0:14:49 > 0:14:53- Is that your answer?- Yeah. - Gallstones.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56It's close, Alan, I can't accept it, it's not correct.

0:14:56 > 0:15:02Kidney stones. Kidney, renal in renal and the kidney.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04And calculus, Eggheads,

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Daphne, calculus being the Latin for...?

0:15:06 > 0:15:13- Stone.- Stone or pebble. Renal calculi. Very, very close, Alan, but not the right answer.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15Another chance for Daphne.

0:15:15 > 0:15:20In which decade did GM food first go on sale in British supermarkets?

0:15:20 > 0:15:23Er...1990s?

0:15:24 > 0:15:26It's the right answer, Daphne!

0:15:26 > 0:15:29- That was another guess there, wasn't it?- Yes, it was. - There you are, you saw it.

0:15:29 > 0:15:33We didn't have the choices, so we didn't get the full gamut of sighing

0:15:33 > 0:15:35and "I don't know" and "Could it be this or that?"

0:15:35 > 0:15:381990s, GM food. 1996, it first appeared

0:15:38 > 0:15:40on supermarket shelves, if you're interested.

0:15:40 > 0:15:45Bad luck, Alan, but at least you got to see your quizzing hero there at work,

0:15:45 > 0:15:50at her very fine work in the Question Room. No place for you in the final round, though.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53Would you both, please, come back and join your teams?

0:15:53 > 0:15:57Well, after Kat's victory, the Eggheads nudge into the lead now.

0:15:57 > 0:16:02Two members of Money For Nothing missing from the final round, one Egghead, of course, gone.

0:16:02 > 0:16:07So let's play our last Head-To-Head before the final round, and this is Politics. Who have we got left?

0:16:07 > 0:16:09Paul or Emma? Paul or Emma

0:16:09 > 0:16:10to play Politics?

0:16:10 > 0:16:12- I better wait till the next round, if possible.- OK.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15I'll go for it for a deduction.

0:16:15 > 0:16:19OK, Emma going for it, rather reluctantly, I think, Emma!

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Pat or Kevin there? Pat or Kevin?

0:16:24 > 0:16:26- Kevin?- Kevin.- Who are you thinking?

0:16:26 > 0:16:28- Kevin.- Kevin?

0:16:28 > 0:16:33- Right, Kevin. - Kevin, the World Quiz champion. Obviously going to be easy.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36Let's have Emma and Kevin into the Question Room, please.

0:16:37 > 0:16:43OK, let's see if you can knock that Kevin out and even it up in the final round.

0:16:43 > 0:16:46- Do you want to go first or second? - I'll try going first.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52First question. The constitutional regime

0:16:52 > 0:16:57that started in France in 1958 is referred to by what name?

0:17:01 > 0:17:06Empire doesn't sound to me like being connected to France at all.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09Er...or kingdom.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12So very limited political knowledge,

0:17:12 > 0:17:15so even knowing what the terms mean, and deducting it from that...

0:17:15 > 0:17:19I'll just go the one in the middle. The Republic.

0:17:19 > 0:17:23- The Republic? You're right.- Oh! - The answer's the Republic.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26- That's a Daphne guess! - It's certainly not a kingdom.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28That's all you needed to know. Well done.

0:17:28 > 0:17:34OK, Kevin, the United States Secretary of Veterans Affairs

0:17:34 > 0:17:39has the specific responsibility for looking after former members of which type of organisation?

0:17:42 > 0:17:46They look after the welfare of military veterans, so armed forces.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48Correct. OK, Emma...

0:17:48 > 0:17:50At the State Opening of Parliament,

0:17:50 > 0:17:54where does the Monarch address the members of both Houses?

0:17:58 > 0:18:02There's a clue in the question. There's the two Houses

0:18:02 > 0:18:05and there's two answers with House in it,

0:18:05 > 0:18:10- er... I'll try the House of Lords. - Try the House of Lords.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12- It's the right answer.- Oh!

0:18:15 > 0:18:18Because, of course, the Queen, as the monarch, is not allowed

0:18:18 > 0:18:21in the House of Commons. That's why she sends Black Rod along for her

0:18:21 > 0:18:24to knock on the door and summon the MPs

0:18:24 > 0:18:29who all troop along into the House of Lords where she reads the Queen's Speech.

0:18:29 > 0:18:36OK. Your question, Kevin, the annual salary of a Westminster MP was set on 1 April 2010 as what?

0:18:44 > 0:18:47I really don't know between those.

0:18:47 > 0:18:51They're not really so very far apart.

0:18:51 > 0:18:55I'm going to go for the 65. I've no confidence whatsoever.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59It could be any of the three, frankly.

0:18:59 > 0:19:03The basic salary is, as set on 1 April 2010, anyway,

0:19:03 > 0:19:07is £65,738. It's the right answer, Kevin.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10You just got that. Well, Emma...

0:19:10 > 0:19:16look at that! He really wobbled there. Get this and who knows what might happen.

0:19:16 > 0:19:21Emma, what name is given to the Moscow building that houses the Russian government?

0:19:25 > 0:19:28OK... Not the White House.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31I'm going to go by the one that's got a Russian name.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34The one in the middle. I'm not going to repeat the name.

0:19:34 > 0:19:38Mikhail Gorbachev. Mikhail Gorbachev Building...

0:19:38 > 0:19:43it's not. It is the White House, funnily enough.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45The White House.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47So there may be a turnaround in prospect here.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49Kevin wins if he gets this.

0:19:49 > 0:19:54In May 2010 to what was the German Government Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble referring when he said,

0:19:54 > 0:20:01"If you want to drain a swamp, you don't ask the frogs for an objective assessment of the situation"?

0:20:04 > 0:20:09Well, I vaguely remember the quote and him being controversial.

0:20:09 > 0:20:13I mean, he's not known for his diplomacy at times, Schaeuble...

0:20:13 > 0:20:19And I think this has got to be in relation to the situation with Greece

0:20:19 > 0:20:25and the economic difficulties, I'm assuming.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28International banking.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31Is the right answer. You've got it, international banking,

0:20:31 > 0:20:33which means you have won the round.

0:20:33 > 0:20:39But what a moment there when we thought you were going to get that MPs' salary one wrong.

0:20:39 > 0:20:44- Very close, Emma. Did you do a lot better than you expected? - Definitely!

0:20:44 > 0:20:49Very close to knocking him out. He's only ever lost once in the entirety of Eggheads on this subject.

0:20:49 > 0:20:53You've played 20 time, by the way, Kevin. Only lost once.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56Well, it means no place for you in the final round, Emma.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59Would you both, please, come back and join your teams?

0:20:59 > 0:21:04So this is what we've been playing towards, the final round which as always is General Knowledge.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07But I'm afraid those of you who lost those Head-To-Heads

0:21:07 > 0:21:09won't be allowed to take part in this round.

0:21:09 > 0:21:14So, Malcolm, Alan and Emma, from Money For Nothing, and CJ from the Eggheads,

0:21:14 > 0:21:15would you leave the studio, please?

0:21:17 > 0:21:21So, Captain Paul, you're playing to win Money For Nothing £3,000.

0:21:21 > 0:21:25Pat, Judith, Kevin and Daphne, you are playing for something which money can't buy

0:21:25 > 0:21:28and that is the Eggheads' reputation.

0:21:28 > 0:21:33As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn. This time the questions are all General Knowledge.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35You are allowed to confer in this round!

0:21:35 > 0:21:39And, Captain Paul, the question therefore is, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?

0:21:39 > 0:21:42Captain Paul, do you want go first or second?

0:21:42 > 0:21:45We'll try first. It's worked well so far. We'll try first yet again.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50OK, right, have a go at this one.

0:21:50 > 0:21:54Which hat is traditionally worn by a bishop?

0:21:58 > 0:22:00- Any idea at all?- I have no idea.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02Er...

0:22:04 > 0:22:08- The second one, the middle one. Is it mitre or "metre"?- Mitre.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11- Mitre.- Does that ring a bell?

0:22:11 > 0:22:14- I've seen it written down, yeah. - I'm not sure it's a hat,

0:22:14 > 0:22:17- but I have heard of it. Er...- Er...

0:22:17 > 0:22:20I've not heard of the other two, so on that basis...

0:22:20 > 0:22:22- On that basis we'll go for it?- Yes.

0:22:22 > 0:22:26Despite the fact we're not sure it's a hat, I think we'll go for mitre.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30OK, mitre. They're all hats. And mitre is correct, yes.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32Well done. A bishop's hat.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34First question for the Eggheads, then.

0:22:34 > 0:22:41Which American-born writer became president of the Campaign to Protect Rural England in 2007?

0:22:43 > 0:22:46- Bryson?- Yeah.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49He's from Des Moines, Iowa, and he's Bill Bryson.

0:22:49 > 0:22:53He said, "I'm from Des Moines, Iowa, Someone has to be."

0:22:53 > 0:22:58And it is Bill Bryson. And a good job he made of it too, OK...

0:22:58 > 0:23:00Well, a good start there by Kat and Paul.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02Let's build on it. And your second question...

0:23:02 > 0:23:08The supermodel Linda Evangelista was born in 1965 in which country?

0:23:11 > 0:23:14- You should know!- My sort of era!

0:23:14 > 0:23:16I'm fairly certain she's not Norwegian.

0:23:16 > 0:23:20I've no recollection of her being from New Zealand.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23- So my guess would be Canada.- Canada? I'm happy with Canada.

0:23:23 > 0:23:29On the basis that we don't know yet again, we'll go for Canada.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31Canada. I'll tell you what...

0:23:31 > 0:23:34not knowing seems to suit you. It's the right answer.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37- These are educated guesses, aren't they?- Very!- Of course!

0:23:37 > 0:23:40They are educated. You have 2.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Eggheads...

0:23:42 > 0:23:47singing hinnies are a type of fried scone that are local to which part of England?

0:23:50 > 0:23:53Singing hinnies are a type of fried scone

0:23:53 > 0:23:57that are local to which part of England?

0:23:57 > 0:23:59North-East, yeah.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02- They're from the North-East. - North-East?

0:24:02 > 0:24:05OK, it's the right answer, Eggheads. OK, it's all square.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08Third question for each team.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10This one for Kat and Paul.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14Which novelist adapted Lynn Barber's memoir An Education for the big screen?

0:24:18 > 0:24:19I don't think it was Nick Hornby,

0:24:19 > 0:24:23because he did High Fidelity and About A Boy, and that sort of thing.

0:24:24 > 0:24:26Er...

0:24:26 > 0:24:30- It doesn't sound like Ian McEwan. - No. Ian McEwan's the only one...

0:24:30 > 0:24:32other one I kind of know vaguely.

0:24:32 > 0:24:37- What was your gut?- My gut was Martin Amis.- Go for that, then.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41I'll take full blame for this one, Dermot, if it's wrong.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43My guess is Martin Amis.

0:24:43 > 0:24:47OK. Martin Amis. Toss-up there between Martin Amis and Ian McEwan.

0:24:47 > 0:24:50The answer is...Nick Hornby!

0:24:50 > 0:24:54So you don't need to take any blame. Both of you didn't think it was him.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57Gives the Eggheads a chance, though.

0:24:57 > 0:25:01If they don't get it, we go to Sudden Death. Eggheads...

0:25:01 > 0:25:04which footballer accumulated 100 caps for two different teams,

0:25:04 > 0:25:0849 with East Germany and 51 with the unified German team?

0:25:14 > 0:25:17It's got to be around it. So Unification was in 1990,

0:25:17 > 0:25:23and it's got to be around that time. So that's too late for Jupp Heynkes.

0:25:23 > 0:25:29I think Ulf Kirsten... Ulf Kirsten, I'm sure, played for East Germany.

0:25:30 > 0:25:35And again, I may be completely wrong, but I think he's back in the '70s,

0:25:35 > 0:25:39that sort of time. He may even have been the guy...

0:25:39 > 0:25:43when East Germany played West Germany in the '74 World Cup.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45he possibly may have been the guy who scored the goal

0:25:45 > 0:25:50that gave Easy Germany a shock win. So I think...by a process...

0:25:50 > 0:25:53and Klaus Fischer, I think, was about the right sort of time.

0:25:53 > 0:25:58I don't know, but of the three I would say Klaus Fischer.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01- OK.- But I, you know, I may be wrong.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05- Completely accepted. - Kevin has done some digging.

0:26:05 > 0:26:11We're not completely confident, but we're going for Klaus Fischer.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16Klaus Fischer, 49 games with East Germany, 51 with the unified team...

0:26:16 > 0:26:18It's Ulf Kirsten.

0:26:19 > 0:26:20Sorry.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22But great news for Money For Nothing.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24It means you live to fight another day.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26And you fight it in the territory of Sudden Death now.

0:26:26 > 0:26:32We're removing the options. Couple of guesses there, I know, on your way to Sudden Death.

0:26:32 > 0:26:34So if you do need to guess, it's going to be a lot more difficult.

0:26:34 > 0:26:40Here's your question. In Greek mythology, which character rejected the nymph Echo,

0:26:40 > 0:26:43causing her to fade away until only her voice was left?

0:26:43 > 0:26:46I honestly don't have a clue.

0:26:46 > 0:26:53Er... I'm trying to think who it would have... I don't think Ulysses. He wouldn't do anything like that.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56I was thinking of Heracles or someone like that.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58Aye. Go for it.

0:26:58 > 0:27:02We don't know a great deal of Greek characters, and we're not even sure this is one,

0:27:02 > 0:27:04- but we'll try Heracles.- Heracles...

0:27:04 > 0:27:10for the character that rejected Echo. Is it Heracles? Eggheads, do you know?

0:27:10 > 0:27:13- Narcissus.- It's Narcissus.- Oh!

0:27:13 > 0:27:16Narcissus, not Heracles.

0:27:16 > 0:27:18So a chance for the Eggheads again.

0:27:18 > 0:27:25Which of the Queen's children became Duke of Rothesay, Earl of Carrick and Baron of Renfrew

0:27:25 > 0:27:27on her accession in 1952?

0:27:27 > 0:27:30- It's Prince Charles. - Well, it's certainly not Anne. She only had the two at the time.

0:27:30 > 0:27:32They're in Scotland.

0:27:32 > 0:27:35- Camilla's the Duchess of Rothesay. - Exactly.

0:27:35 > 0:27:40- It's the Prince of Wales. - In 1952, she only had Charles and Anne, and it's not Anne.

0:27:40 > 0:27:44- So it's Charles, yeah.- Definitely. - We're going for Charles, Dermot.

0:27:44 > 0:27:49Charles, Prince Charles. It's the right answer, Eggheads.

0:27:49 > 0:27:50You've won!

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Well, bad luck, you two.

0:27:57 > 0:28:03- That was a really, really good round. I hope you enjoyed it. We certainly did.- Yes.

0:28:03 > 0:28:07You really did well there. Kat, thinking back to your Head-To-Head, that was fantastic.

0:28:07 > 0:28:12Started badly, came back at the Eggheads, and those other Head-To-Heads were really close.

0:28:12 > 0:28:16Emma's round sticks in the mind as well. Thought she didn't have a chance against Mr Brainbox,

0:28:16 > 0:28:20but he had his wobble in there. So thank you very much indeed

0:28:20 > 0:28:22for playing the Eggheads today. Really enjoyed it.

0:28:22 > 0:28:26The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them, and they still reign supreme over Quizland.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29I'm afraid that you won't be going home with the £3,000,

0:28:29 > 0:28:31and that means the money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:31 > 0:28:35Eggheads, congratulations! Who will beat you?

0:28:35 > 0:28:39Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42£4,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
