0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:08 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:16arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:22 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:30attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33Their quiz pedigree is well-known, as they've won some of
0:00:33 > 0:00:35the country's toughest quiz shows.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37They are the Eggheads.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40And taking on our awesome quiz champions today
0:00:40 > 0:00:42are Band on the Wall.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46Now, this team of colleagues all work at the same music venue
0:00:46 > 0:00:48in Manchester, a legendary location,
0:00:48 > 0:00:51which, in its time, has played host to early gigs by the likes of
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Joy Division, Buzzcocks and Simply Red. Let's meet them.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Lisa, I'm 42 and I'm the day manager.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Sally, I'm 29 and I'm a programme coordinator.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Malcolm, I'm 44 and I'm a marketing manager.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Hi, I'm David, I'm 44 and I'm a financial manager.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10Hi, I'm Mike, I'm 48 and I'm a programme manager.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12Lisa and team, welcome. Great to see you.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14And Band on the Wall, the name of your team,
0:01:14 > 0:01:17- is also the name of the venue. - That's correct, yes.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20And we always think that music is much better when we were 17, right?
0:01:20 > 0:01:22So, is music good now?
0:01:22 > 0:01:26- Always great.- Always more good music coming.- What is it about Manchester?
0:01:26 > 0:01:29I sometimes wonder if it's the rain that makes people dream, you know.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- The rain.- You've got to dream. The Smiths and all of that.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35- Just...astonishing tradition. - It's the misery.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38- The misery.- Yeah.- Sorry, Manchester.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41What's the line from The Smiths? "So much to answer for."
0:01:41 > 0:01:43- "So much to answer for." - Well, good luck.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46This lot have got a lot to answer for too, so we wish you the best.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash
0:01:48 > 0:01:49up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51If they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:51 > 0:01:53the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57So, Band on the Wall, the Eggheads have won the last ten games,
0:01:57 > 0:02:01which means £11,000 says you can't beat them today.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04First subject is Food & Drink. Who would like that?
0:02:09 > 0:02:12- I can, do you want me to go first? - You should go first.- Go on, then.
0:02:12 > 0:02:16- Ladies first.- Oh, God.- The tricky bit now is choosing one of them.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20- What do you think?- Kevin. Food & Drink.- Yeah, Kevin.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25This is the boss, so I'll go with Lisa and I'll take Kevin on.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28You have watched the programme, haven't you? I can tell.
0:02:28 > 0:02:32- Lisa has, she's got strategy, this girl.- I just can tell that.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35OK, so it's Sally from Band on the Wall versus
0:02:35 > 0:02:36Kevin from the legendary Eggheads.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38And to ensure there's no conferring,
0:02:38 > 0:02:41would you please take your positions in the Question Room?
0:02:41 > 0:02:44Kevin, are you cooking for yourself yet?
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Or have we not got to that final frontier?
0:02:47 > 0:02:50- No, that is well off in the 23rd century, I'll tell you.- OK.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52This is why you may have chosen well, Sally, good luck.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55So, three questions on Food & Drink and you get to choose
0:02:55 > 0:02:57whether you have the first or second set.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59I'll go first, please.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05Lemongrass, much used in Thai cuisine,
0:03:05 > 0:03:09has an appearance that is similar to which common vegetable?
0:03:14 > 0:03:18Well, it's, I would say it's kind of like a leek, circular with
0:03:18 > 0:03:22lots of circles inside each other, which kind of rules out carrot
0:03:22 > 0:03:25and broccoli, so I would say it's most like spring onion.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Very good, it is like spring onion.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33Kevin, your question. What type of food is an aduki?
0:03:36 > 0:03:38If I'm not mixing it up with something else,
0:03:38 > 0:03:40I think aduki is a bean.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Aduki is a bean, well done. Back to you, Sally.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47In terms of volume, what is the size of a standard bottle of wine?
0:03:53 > 0:03:57- The answer's 750mls.- 750 is the correct answer, well done.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Kevin, your second question to keep up with Sally.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Which type of fish was nicknamed the Silver Darling
0:04:03 > 0:04:06because of its traditional importance to fishing communities?
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Particularly up and down the east coast, I think. Herring.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16Herring is the Silver Darling, you're quite right.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19So it's two each. Sally, obviously, he's been cooking
0:04:19 > 0:04:21those aduki beans in his kitchen without telling anybody.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Here's your third question.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26According to legend, what was discovered by Kaldi,
0:04:26 > 0:04:29an Ethiopian goatherd?
0:04:33 > 0:04:39I don't know the answer. So, I'm going to take a guess and say coffee.
0:04:39 > 0:04:43You're good, coffee's right. Well done, Sally. Three out of three.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Some nice demure applause from your team.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47OK, Kevin, this to stay in.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51In American cooking, what is a Brown Betty?
0:04:54 > 0:04:56I'll go for baked pudding.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Yeah, baked pudding is the right answer.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Kevin, well done, you've also got three out of three,
0:05:00 > 0:05:02on Food & Drink, not your strongest.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04So, we know what happens now, Sally,
0:05:04 > 0:05:07we go on with the questions, but they're not multiple-choice.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09I don't give you alternatives.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13Here's your first Sudden Death question.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16The UK organisation known by the abbreviation NACM
0:05:16 > 0:05:19promotes which alcoholic drink?
0:05:22 > 0:05:24Don't know the answer,
0:05:24 > 0:05:27I'm assuming the NA is National Association of...
0:05:29 > 0:05:34..coffee. I don't know, thinking of something beginning with C.
0:05:34 > 0:05:38- Is that your answer?- Yes.- OK. It was an alcoholic drink.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42- Oh, sorry.- Although, coffee can be alcoholic. It was cider.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Bad luck.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49Kevin. Which sauce takes its name from a former province of France,
0:05:49 > 0:05:52where the French King Henry IV was born?
0:05:54 > 0:05:59Right, well, there's more than one sauce named after a French region.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05But probably the best-known sauce named after a French region,
0:06:05 > 0:06:07I think, it is also pretty much
0:06:07 > 0:06:10the area that Henry IV came from, I think,
0:06:10 > 0:06:14is bearnaise. So Bearn, bearnais, bearnaise.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17- Bearnaise, from the region of? - Bearn.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Kevin, you're right.
0:06:19 > 0:06:20You've got all your questions right.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Sorry, Sally, you've been knocked out by an Egghead.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23It does happen.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- I knew his.- Please come back and rejoin your teams.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30OK, as it stands, the challengers have lost one brain,
0:06:30 > 0:06:33the Eggheads have lost no brains, but it's early days.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35The next subject is Music. Who would like this?
0:06:35 > 0:06:37This is golden for you, isn't it?
0:06:37 > 0:06:41- Right, decision time. - It's up to you, boss.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- I can think of David. I think you're the man here.- OK.
0:06:44 > 0:06:4715 Glastonburys under your belt. I think, absolutely.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- David.- All right.- On Music. I know it's high stakes, isn't it?
0:06:51 > 0:06:52The shame of losing.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Three wrong answers on this one would be painful.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- Eggheads, which one?- Judith, please.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00OK, so, David from Band on the Wall versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03And to ensure there's no conferring,
0:07:03 > 0:07:06would you please now take your positions in the Question Room?
0:07:06 > 0:07:10- David, you've been to how many Glastonburys?- 15.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- Judith, how many Glastonburys have you been to?- I haven't. None.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17- It's the mud, isn't it? - It's the mud, yes.- Put you off.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20All right, three questions on Music and, David,
0:07:20 > 0:07:22you can choose the first or second set.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Here we go. Which Elvis Presley hit starts with the lines,
0:07:28 > 0:07:32"Maybe I didn't treat you quite as good as I should have?"
0:07:39 > 0:07:42That's horrible, because I can think of exactly how it goes.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44It's not Return To Sender
0:07:44 > 0:07:48and I'm almost certain it's not The Wonder Of You.
0:07:48 > 0:07:53So, I won't sing, because that would be dreadful. It's Always On My Mind.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Correct, well done.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Here we go, Judith. Don't be nervous.
0:07:57 > 0:07:58I am.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02Which band released the 1967 single Knights In White Satin?
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Oh, this is, I really should know this, shouldn't I?
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Oh, dear, I don't know. The Moody Blues.
0:08:13 > 0:08:18Bang on, well done. The Moody Blues is correct.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20OK, over to you, David.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Which tempo marking in music is derived
0:08:22 > 0:08:24from the Italian for "at ease"?
0:08:29 > 0:08:31At ease, um...
0:08:33 > 0:08:37At ease. I'll go for Andante.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41That's the wrong answer. It's Adagio.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43David, Italian for "at ease."
0:08:43 > 0:08:45Judith, here's your next question.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49The violinist Nigel Kennedy was born in which year?
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Well, I think he's probably, by now, about 50-something.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00So, I'm going to say 1956.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03'56 is the right answer, Judith, well done.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05So, David, you really need this one.
0:09:05 > 0:09:10OK. So Sick, Closer, and Beautiful Monster
0:09:10 > 0:09:15were UK number-one singles for which American artist?
0:09:20 > 0:09:23OK, I think it's probably Ne-Yo.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26But that's a slight guess.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29That's a very tough question, but you got the answer absolutely right.
0:09:29 > 0:09:30Well done, David, good stuff.
0:09:30 > 0:09:35So, two points to David and, Judith, you can take him on the curve now,
0:09:35 > 0:09:37if you get this right.
0:09:37 > 0:09:38Which artist had the number one album in the UK
0:09:38 > 0:09:41on the first day of the year 2000?
0:09:49 > 0:09:51I don't know. Celine Dion.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Is the wrong answer. It was Shania Twain.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58So, you're level after three questions
0:09:58 > 0:10:00and that means we go to Sudden Death.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04David. Richie Sambora and Tico Torres are best known as members of
0:10:04 > 0:10:08which internationally successful American rock band?
0:10:09 > 0:10:14Richie Sambora is the guitarist in Bon Jovi, I think.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Bon Jovi is the right answer, well done.
0:10:16 > 0:10:17Now you're on the defensive, Judith.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Let's see how you do.
0:10:19 > 0:10:25With which female songwriter did Gerry Goffin co-write songs entitled
0:10:25 > 0:10:29Will You Love Me Tomorrow and You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman?
0:10:31 > 0:10:36I can hear both those songs in my head, but God knows who wrote them.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38I'm just trying to think of a singer at the moment.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41I've got in a sort of panic. Blank.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Can't go for the sympathy vote, I'm afraid.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48I can't, I just don't know.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52I'm going to have to... I can't think of a singer.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55- You're going to pass on it? - Yes, I'm afraid.- David, do you know?
0:10:55 > 0:10:59- Er, I think it's Carole King. - Yes, Carole King is right.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01- Oh.- Goffin and King, it was.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Well done, David.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Bad luck, Judith. You will not be in the final round.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09David, you will be, supporting your team in the final.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13That's very good news for Band on the Wall.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15Both of you, please come back and rejoin us.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Well done, David. You must be relieved.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21I'd have had to resign first thing tomorrow.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25So, the challengers have lost one brain,
0:11:25 > 0:11:28the Eggheads have also lost one brain from the final round.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Our next subject is History.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32- Where's the historian? - That's Malcolm.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36- Malcolm, it's you. - Yeah, OK.- Malcolm, on History, OK.
0:11:36 > 0:11:41- Which Egghead would you like? CJ, Daphne or Pat?- I'd say CJ.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45- He's good with dates.- OK, well, you're the boss.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48- CJ, please.- CJ, I thought I could hear your name.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Good with dates, they're saying.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53As long as it's not Sport, I don't care.
0:11:53 > 0:11:54All right, Malcolm from Band on the Wall
0:11:54 > 0:11:57versus CJ from the Eggheads.
0:11:57 > 0:11:58And to make sure there's no conferring,
0:11:58 > 0:12:00please take your positions.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03OK, I'll ask each of you three questions on History in turn.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Malcolm, would you like the first or the second set of questions?
0:12:06 > 0:12:07I'll go first.
0:12:10 > 0:12:11First question, Malcolm.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14Who ascended to the English, Scottish
0:12:14 > 0:12:16and Irish thrones in 1702?
0:12:22 > 0:12:291702. I known George III is late 18th century.
0:12:31 > 0:12:36James II was earlier than that, so I am going to say Anne.
0:12:37 > 0:12:42Very good, Anne is the right answer, excellent. You impressed, CJ?
0:12:42 > 0:12:43I'm annoyed I didn't get it.
0:12:44 > 0:12:45Here we go.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48Historically, the system of assistance given to the poor
0:12:48 > 0:12:51in places like almshouses and workhouses
0:12:51 > 0:12:53has been known by what name?
0:12:58 > 0:13:00Oh. I don't know.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Not Care in the Community, because that's,
0:13:04 > 0:13:07I'm assuming, a fairly recent invention for...
0:13:07 > 0:13:11generally associated with people with mental health difficulties.
0:13:13 > 0:13:20Hold on, isn't Home Help generally associated with people who go,
0:13:20 > 0:13:23more usually, to old age pensioners' homes to help them?
0:13:23 > 0:13:28I've not heard of the term, but as I can associate something else
0:13:28 > 0:13:31with the other two, I'll try Indoor Relief.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Quite right, Indoor Relief it is. Well done.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Malcolm, your question. This might be familiar.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41What is the oldest existing part of the Tower of London,
0:13:41 > 0:13:43started by William the Conqueror?
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Interesting.
0:13:52 > 0:13:57I'm fairly sure that the tower at the Tower of London isn't round,
0:13:57 > 0:14:02so, I would say, as a hunch, cos I'm not 100% sure,
0:14:02 > 0:14:05that it's the White Tower.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08And White Tower, it is. Playing really well, Malcolm
0:14:08 > 0:14:09CJ, over to you.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13The conflict known as the Third Anglo-Afghan War
0:14:13 > 0:14:14took place in which year?
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Don't know this one either, I'm afraid.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26I'd have thought that 1717 was a little too early for that region.
0:14:26 > 0:14:301919 would have been just after the First World War.
0:14:30 > 0:14:321919.
0:14:32 > 0:14:36And it's right. Well done. All right, Malcolm.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Here's your third question.
0:14:38 > 0:14:39The British General Sir Ian Hamilton
0:14:39 > 0:14:43is best known for his role in which operation during World War One?
0:14:49 > 0:14:54Well, operation doesn't... Um...
0:14:54 > 0:14:57This is absolute pot luck, I think.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00But, for some reason, I'm going to go for the Siege of Kut.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02I'm afraid you're wrong.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04The answer is the Gallipoli Campaign.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07So, you've allowed CJ a chance to come back in here.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10CJ, your third question, to get a place in the final.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14The imposing abbey at Rievaulx, in Yorkshire, was the first
0:15:14 > 0:15:19monastery built in the North of England by which religious order?
0:15:26 > 0:15:30I don't think... I know something about it, but not too much.
0:15:30 > 0:15:31I don't think it's Augustinian.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37I don't know, but I'm going to go for Cistercian.
0:15:38 > 0:15:43- If you've got this right, you're in the final. Daphne?- He's right.
0:15:43 > 0:15:48You are right, Cistercian it was. Well done, CJ. Bad luck, Malcolm.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50You ran him close, but you won't be in the final round.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52CJ is the winner of this round. You will be.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55Please, both of you, come back, rejoin us.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57So, as it stands, the challengers have lost two brains
0:15:57 > 0:16:01from the final round, whilst the Eggheads have lost one brain.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04Our last subject now is Film & TV.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07- Who would like this? - I'm going to do this.
0:16:07 > 0:16:08Mike, OK.
0:16:08 > 0:16:12Which Egghead would you like to play? Pat or Daphne?
0:16:12 > 0:16:15- What do you think?- I'd say Pat. - Go with Pat, then.- OK.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Pat. Please.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21OK, so Mike from Band on the Wall against Pat from the Eggheads.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24And to ensure there's no conferring, please go to the Question Rooms now.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28All right, so we are on Film & TV, three questions on that subject
0:16:28 > 0:16:32in turn. And, Mike, you can choose the first or the second set.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34I'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Good luck, here we go.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42In the 1990s, which former editor of The Sun managed a channel
0:16:42 > 0:16:47called Live TV that became known for the News Bunny and topless darts?
0:16:51 > 0:16:53The only name that's jumping out at me,
0:16:53 > 0:16:57and this would have to be a guess, is Kelvin MacKenzie.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Kelvin MacKenzie is the right answer.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Over to you, Pat.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05In the 2006 series of Celebrity Big Brother, who entered
0:17:05 > 0:17:08the house as a non-celebrity and had to convince her fellow
0:17:08 > 0:17:12housemates that she was a member of the fictional band Candyfloss?
0:17:18 > 0:17:23I don't know anything about Cleo. Caprice is a model/celebrity.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27I think, of those three, I'll have to go for Chantelle.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Correct, it is Chantelle, well done.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Your second question, Mike.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34In the 2010 film The American,
0:17:34 > 0:17:37who plays the title character, variously known as Jack or Edward?
0:17:42 > 0:17:44I have no idea, so it will have to be a guess.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47I'm just going to go with the right-hand side.
0:17:47 > 0:17:48I'm going to go with George Clooney.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- Are you pleased with that, team? - Yes.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53You're right, George Clooney is correct.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Pat, your second question.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01The 1963 film Charade, starring Cary Grant
0:18:01 > 0:18:04and Audrey Hepburn, was mainly set in which European city?
0:18:07 > 0:18:10I don't know, I think I'll have to take a guess.
0:18:10 > 0:18:11And I'll guess Paris.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17Paris is correct. You're very good at guessing, Pat.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19OK, third question, Mike. See if you can hold him back.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22For which 1997 film was Minnie Driver nominated
0:18:22 > 0:18:26for a Best Supporting Actress Oscar?
0:18:30 > 0:18:311997.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36I don't think it's Good Will Hunting.
0:18:38 > 0:18:43I have a feeling that Grosse Pointe Blank might be the '80s.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46Do you know what, I'm going to completely go with
0:18:46 > 0:18:47what I said it wasn't,
0:18:47 > 0:18:50and I'm going to guess Good Will Hunting.
0:18:50 > 0:18:54Well done, Good Will Hunting is correct. Fantastic.
0:18:54 > 0:18:55Not many people can
0:18:55 > 0:18:57overrule their original instinct,
0:18:57 > 0:19:00it was quite interesting watching you debate that one out.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01Pat. Your question now.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04If you get this one wrong, you're not in the final round.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Who directed the 2005 film Revolver?
0:19:10 > 0:19:13It sounds like a British gangster film
0:19:13 > 0:19:17in the Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels tradition.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20I'm going to have to assume it was one of Guy Ritchie's
0:19:20 > 0:19:23less successful British gangster crime films.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Guy Ritchie.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Guy Ritchie is right. Well done.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29So, three each, we move to Sudden Death.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Mike, it gets a bit harder.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- Are you ready?- We'll see. - You're doing well.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38Who won a BAFTA TV award for her performance as Mother
0:19:38 > 0:19:41in the TV drama Oranges Are Not The Only Fruits?
0:19:43 > 0:19:46Off the top of my head, complete guess, I'll say Thora Hird.
0:19:46 > 0:19:51Nice guess, but not the right answer. Anybody?
0:19:51 > 0:19:52Is it Geraldine McEwan?
0:19:52 > 0:19:54It is Geraldine McEwan.
0:19:54 > 0:19:55So, Mike,
0:19:55 > 0:19:57you've got to hope that Pat slips up here.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Pat, here's your question.
0:19:59 > 0:20:03Who was the regular host of the crime-fighting TV show Police Five,
0:20:03 > 0:20:06who usually ended the show by saying, "Keep 'em peeled"?
0:20:10 > 0:20:14I have a name in my head who was linked with that sort of thing,
0:20:14 > 0:20:15Shaw Taylor.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17I don't think I've got many rival candidates for the post,
0:20:17 > 0:20:20so I'll go with Shaw Taylor.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Shaw Taylor is the right answer, Pat, well done.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24So you've triumphed in Sudden Death.
0:20:24 > 0:20:25Bad luck, Mike.
0:20:25 > 0:20:26He's won through in the end.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29That means we'll have this Egghead in the final and you won't be.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Please, both of you, come back and rejoin us here.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34So, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36It is time for the final round which, as always,
0:20:36 > 0:20:37is General Knowledge.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:20:39 > 0:20:42won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45So, Sally, Malcolm and Mike from Band on the Wall.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48And also, Judith from the Eggheads,
0:20:48 > 0:20:50would you please now leave the studio?
0:20:50 > 0:20:55Lisa and David, you are playing to win £11,000.
0:20:55 > 0:20:56Pat, Kevin, CJ and Daphne,
0:20:56 > 0:20:59you're playing for something that money can't buy,
0:20:59 > 0:21:01the Eggheads' reputation.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05This time, the questions are all General Knowledge
0:21:05 > 0:21:07and you are allowed to confer.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09So, Lisa and David,
0:21:09 > 0:21:12the question is, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:21:12 > 0:21:17- Band on the Wall, would you like to go first or second?- First, please.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Here we go. Good luck to you both.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24In which year did Erno Rubik invent his Magic Cube,
0:21:24 > 0:21:28which was later sold as the Rubik Cube?
0:21:32 > 0:21:35It came out in the, sort of, early '80s, didn't it?
0:21:35 > 0:21:37I'd guess a bit before then.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38I remember when I was on the cusp of
0:21:38 > 0:21:40primary and junior school, doing
0:21:40 > 0:21:42a Rubik's Cube was a big thing.
0:21:42 > 0:21:46Oh, was it earlier? Right, OK.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49Later suggests maybe it's '64, but it came out...
0:21:49 > 0:21:50Then it would have hung around.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53It came out in the late '70s,
0:21:53 > 0:21:54I would say, so '74...
0:21:54 > 0:21:59- would be my guess.- OK, yeah. I'll go with that.- OK.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02We'll go with 1974.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06'74 is the right answer, well done.
0:22:06 > 0:22:07OK, Eggheads, your question.
0:22:07 > 0:22:12In Raymond Briggs's 2001 children's book, what is the name of the title
0:22:12 > 0:22:15character, described as The Boy Genius Of The Stone Age?
0:22:18 > 0:22:22- Well, it's not Stig. - Stig was done by somebody else.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26- I've heard of somebody called Ug. - Right.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29There was a TV series, an animated series, called Pogs
0:22:29 > 0:22:32and they were cavemen and they killed mammoths,
0:22:32 > 0:22:36but I don't know whether there's a singular Pog.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40I think I've heard of a character called Ug,
0:22:40 > 0:22:45but if you think Pogs is set in the Stone Age, then...
0:22:45 > 0:22:48I know that Pogs is set in the Stone Age with people with clubs,
0:22:48 > 0:22:51but the question is, has it got anything to do with Raymond Briggs?
0:22:51 > 0:22:54I mean, Stone Age is the only link, and the Pog name.
0:22:54 > 0:22:59- I think I've heard of a singular character called Ug.- I think, yeah.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03- I mean, you may be...- OK, right, we're going to go for Ug.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06- Ug is your answer, is it?- Yes.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09It's correct.
0:23:09 > 0:23:10Life's not fair!
0:23:10 > 0:23:12I thought they were going to trip on
0:23:12 > 0:23:14the first question. OK, try again.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Here's your second.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20The island called Vulcano is just off the northern coast
0:23:20 > 0:23:22of which larger island?
0:23:28 > 0:23:31- They're all volcanic areas.- Yes.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35- But is it kind of a Latin, Roman...? - Because Vulcan was probably Roman.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39I don't think it's Iceland, cos the Romans wouldn't, you know?
0:23:39 > 0:23:42I could probably rule Sumatra out for the same reason.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43- I'd say it's Sicily.- I think Sicily.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44But is that too simplistic?
0:23:44 > 0:23:47It could be named after and be Sumatra.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50It sounds Italian to me.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52It sounds like it's named after,
0:23:52 > 0:23:54- you know?- So, Sicily, then?
0:23:54 > 0:23:56- Probably. - We're going to go with Sicily.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58Sicily is your answer. Well done, you got it right.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Eggheads, which part of a horse's tack is a long strap
0:24:05 > 0:24:09that is fastened round a horse's body to keep a blanket,
0:24:09 > 0:24:11pack or saddle in place?
0:24:15 > 0:24:17I think it's a surcingle.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20Because a numnah isn't like a saddle, it's a saddle cloth.
0:24:20 > 0:24:25Cantle is a part of the saddle. It's the bit at the front.
0:24:25 > 0:24:26So it's a surcingle
0:24:27 > 0:24:30It's a surcingle.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34Surcingle is your answer and it's right. So two points each.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Tight.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40Lisa, David, Band on the Wall, in which role
0:24:40 > 0:24:44is Patrick Demarchelier famous in the field of fashion?
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Do I look like I'd know?
0:24:52 > 0:24:54I haven't heard of him as a designer.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01A model, male models don't tend to be as famous as female models,
0:25:01 > 0:25:02I don't know.
0:25:03 > 0:25:04I wouldn't know,
0:25:04 > 0:25:06but, photographer...
0:25:06 > 0:25:10Sounds like a designer's name, but I've never heard of him.
0:25:10 > 0:25:15I don't pay attention to male models. Photographer. Let's guess.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21We're going to guess at photographer.
0:25:21 > 0:25:22OK, you're right, well done.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Eggheads, over to you.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30Which British racing driver won the British Formula 1 Grand Prix
0:25:30 > 0:25:32a total of five times?
0:25:36 > 0:25:38My instinct was Clark.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41That's what I immediately thought of.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44I think I've read something somewhere recently
0:25:44 > 0:25:48where it mentions Jim Clark, and number five rings a bell.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52- Right.- Daphne, over to you.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56We think it's Jim Clark.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Damon Hill won it once. Mansell won it four times.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Jim Clark is the right answer. Well done.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07So, after three questions,
0:26:07 > 0:26:09the scores are level and we go to Sudden Death,
0:26:09 > 0:26:11with £11,000 to play for.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Lisa, David, here's your question.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Who did John Smith defeat in the election to become
0:26:18 > 0:26:22Labour Party Leader after the resignation of Neil Kinnock in 1992?
0:26:25 > 0:26:29Right, so Kinnock resigned. John Smith took over, died
0:26:29 > 0:26:31and Blair took over.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34So, who was John Smith up against?
0:26:36 > 0:26:39I think Hattersley was having a punt back then.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45Roy Hattersley.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48OK, we're going to guess at Roy Hattersley then.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51Roy Hattersley is your answer?
0:26:51 > 0:26:55And it's wrong. It was... You know?
0:26:55 > 0:26:59- Bryan Gould.- Bryan Gould is correct, yes. Tough question, that.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01He went, then, back to New Zealand,
0:27:01 > 0:27:05so he kind of vanished from British politics after that.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07OK. Here's your question, Eggheads.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09You get this right, the contest is over.
0:27:09 > 0:27:14The character of Carlo Marx in Jack Kerouac's On The Road
0:27:14 > 0:27:16is based on which real-life poet?
0:27:18 > 0:27:20Probably has to be Ginsberg.
0:27:20 > 0:27:24Ginsberg was Jewish, this sounds like a Jewish name.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29- Anybody any other...?- Timothy Leary is a bit off-field.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32Yeah, I think so. Well, not necessarily.
0:27:32 > 0:27:37- I mean...- Highly likely. If I had to guess, I'd guess Ginsberg.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39We don't know it, so why not just go
0:27:39 > 0:27:41for the obvious one and say Ginsberg?
0:27:41 > 0:27:43- Right.- Yes, I can't really think of any others.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45I mean, there would be other candidates, but let's go for it.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47Allen Ginsberg.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52The character of Carlo Marx was based on
0:27:52 > 0:27:54the real-life Allen Ginsberg.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56Well done, Eggheads. You have won.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06- Bryan Gould, just don't think about Bryan Gould again.- No, who does?
0:28:06 > 0:28:09Well, commiserations to you, challengers.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them
0:28:11 > 0:28:13and their winning streak continues.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16I'm afraid that means you're not going home with the £11,000,
0:28:16 > 0:28:18which means that the money now rolls over to our next show.
0:28:18 > 0:28:22Eggheads, congratulations. Who will ever beat you?
0:28:22 > 0:28:25Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains
0:28:25 > 0:28:27to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30£12,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye.
