0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 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 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:26 > 0:00:30attempt to beat possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:31Their quiz pedigree is well known,
0:00:31 > 0:00:35as they've won some of the country's toughest quiz shows.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37They are the Eggheads.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40Taking on our quiz champions today are Warwick's Got Talent.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42This team became friends during their first year
0:00:42 > 0:00:44at Warwick University and during term time,
0:00:44 > 0:00:48they test their combined quizzing skills at The Duke pub.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Let's meet them.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Hi, I'm Alf, I'm 21 and I'm a classics student.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Gemma, I'm 21 and I'm a history and sociology student.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Rob, I'm 21 and I'm a biochemistry student.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Imogen, I'm 20 and I'm a history and politics student.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Hi, I'm Tom, I'm 20 and I'm MORSE student.
0:01:08 > 0:01:09Alf and team, welcome.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13I have to ask - Alf is an unusual name for a girl.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16Yeah, it's my initials, short for April Louise.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Alf, OK. Tell us about your quizzing.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Well, we quiz together quite often, once or twice a week.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23We normally do quite well.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27We've known to win on occasion when we've been lucky.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Can I just check, Tom, your subject is MORSE?
0:01:29 > 0:01:31- Yes.- Can we have an explanation?
0:01:31 > 0:01:36It stands for Maths, Operational Research, Statistics and Economics.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39- Did they have that in your day, Kevin?- No, not as far as I know.
0:01:39 > 0:01:44- Operational research is what? - Not sure yet. I'm in my third year.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46They tell you halfway through the third year?
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Something like that.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52- Maybe this is it.- Maybe you're on an operation right now.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56So, good luck. Every day there's £1,000 worth of cash
0:01:56 > 0:01:59up for grabs for our challengers. However, if they fail to defeat
0:01:59 > 0:02:03the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Warwick's Got Talent, the challengers won the last game,
0:02:06 > 0:02:07proving it can be done,
0:02:07 > 0:02:12which means £1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads. Are you ready?
0:02:12 > 0:02:13We're ready.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Here's the first head-to-head subject, it's Politics.
0:02:16 > 0:02:21- Is there a politics student here? - We have one.- Imogen against?
0:02:21 > 0:02:25- Chris.- I'll take Chris, please.
0:02:25 > 0:02:31Imogen from Warwick's Got Talent on Politics against Chris, our Egghead.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Do, please, take your positions in the question room.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Imogen, it was always going to be you on politics, wasn't it?
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Yes, unfortunately.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Three questions, multiple-choice and you can choose, Imogen,
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- the first or second set. - I'll go first, please.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50Here we go. What is a diplomat said to have
0:02:50 > 0:02:53if they're not subject to the laws of the country
0:02:53 > 0:02:56- in which they're living and working? - Is it...
0:03:00 > 0:03:03I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this one.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07If I get it wrong, I think I might look a bit stupid,
0:03:07 > 0:03:09but I think I am going to go for diplomatic immunity.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12Diplomatic immunity is right. Well done.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Chris, your political question.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17The Highway code for England, Scotland and Wales
0:03:17 > 0:03:20falls under the remit of which government department?
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Hmm.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31It used to be Her Majesty's Stationary Office,
0:03:31 > 0:03:33but there's no such thing any more,
0:03:33 > 0:03:38but since it deals with road traffic law,
0:03:38 > 0:03:41rather than transport per se, it's certainly not
0:03:41 > 0:03:44culture, media or sport, it must come under the Home Office.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Any Eggheads want to answer that?
0:03:46 > 0:03:49- Transport.- Transport is the answer, Chris.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Home Office is the wrong answer.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54Well done, Imogen. You're ahead.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57Who was the only woman of the final five candidates
0:03:57 > 0:04:01in the 2010 Labour leadership election?
0:04:06 > 0:04:10I thought I knew this before it came up,
0:04:10 > 0:04:12but then when Margaret Beckett came up,
0:04:12 > 0:04:15I know that she's quite big in the Labour Party as well.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19But I think...she is quite left-wing
0:04:19 > 0:04:22and I think I'm going to go for Diane Abbott.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23Diane Abbott is quite right.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Chris, your question to get a point.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31From 1999-2004 Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg
0:04:31 > 0:04:33was a member of which legislature?
0:04:37 > 0:04:39It's not the Scottish Parliament.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47He's not Welsh, so presumably he's an MEP, European Parliament.
0:04:47 > 0:04:53European Parliament is correct. He was an MEP, so you have a point.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Imogen, see how you do on your third question.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58You get this one right, you're through to the final round -
0:04:58 > 0:05:01there's no point going back to Chris.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05In 1993, Simon Hoggart became a parliamentary sketch writer
0:05:05 > 0:05:07for which daily newspaper?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14I have definitely heard his name before.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17But I'm not sure in what context.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19I don't think it's the Daily Mail,
0:05:19 > 0:05:21so I'm torn between the Guardian and the Times.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27Um... I think I might go for the Guardian.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30If you've got it right, you're in the final.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34- Simon Hoggart writes brilliantly for the Guardian.- Yes!
0:05:34 > 0:05:37So, well done. You are in the final, Imogen.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Three out of three for you.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40Chris, you've been knocked out.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44Please both of you come back and rejoin your teams.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50Nice work to Imogen and the team. The challengers have lost no brains,
0:05:50 > 0:05:54and the Eggheads have lost one brain from the final round.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Our next subject is Science.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59So who would like to do Science?
0:05:59 > 0:06:01- It's got to the me, hasn't it? - Only one option.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- You're the biochemist.- Yeah. - And against which Egghead?
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- I think Judith.- Yeah. Go on, then. Judith, please.
0:06:09 > 0:06:13Rob from Warwick's Got Talent against smiling Judith.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Smiling Judith, yes.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17- Happy to be doing Science and not Music.- Yes, very.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19To ensure there's no conferring,
0:06:19 > 0:06:21would you please take your positions in the Question Room?
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- Rob, right up your street.- Yeah.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27I couldn't have got a better category.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31- Biochemistry, that's what you're studying. - Yes, so it covers a lot of stuff.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34What you want to do when you leave university?
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Hopefully keep going with it and work in a lab somewhere.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40All right, see if you can beat Judith on Science. Good luck.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41Three questions on Science in turn.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Whoever answers the most correctly is the winner.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Rob, you can choose the first or second set of questions.
0:06:47 > 0:06:48I'll go first, please.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52Here we go.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55The Big Dipper is another name for which group of stars?
0:07:00 > 0:07:04I think it is what the Americans call the Plough.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07The Plough is the right answer. Well done.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Judith, which word describes a chemical compound
0:07:11 > 0:07:12that contains no water?
0:07:17 > 0:07:21Well, anything with "hyd" in it means something to do with water.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Hydra. So I think it's anhydrous.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Anhydrous is the right answer.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Rob, which gland in the human body secretes growth hormone?
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Well, the adrenal gland secretes adrenalin.
0:07:37 > 0:07:43And I think it is the pituitary gland that is involved
0:07:43 > 0:07:47in growth problems, so I think it could be the pituitary gland.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Pituitary is the correct answer. Well done. Two out of two for you.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Judith, to keep up,
0:07:53 > 0:07:56what type of creature is the Asian dhole?
0:08:01 > 0:08:06I'm not quite sure. I have heard it. I'm trying to think where and how.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10I think it might be a wild dog.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14Very good. It is wild dog. OK.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15Over to you, Rob.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Pulpotomy is a procedure
0:08:17 > 0:08:20that is performed in which branch of medicine?
0:08:24 > 0:08:27P-U-L-P, as in "pulp", and then "otomy".
0:08:27 > 0:08:30I am not too sure at all.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32But I think...
0:08:34 > 0:08:37I can't really get anything from the word,
0:08:37 > 0:08:41so I think I'm going to go for chiropody.
0:08:42 > 0:08:47- Any Egghead help us here? - It's dentistry. Teeth contain pulp.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Yeah, teeth contain pulp. It's dentistry, Rob.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Judith can take the round on science
0:08:53 > 0:08:54if you get this one right.
0:08:54 > 0:08:59Often experienced during or after exercise, what is hyperpnoea?
0:09:04 > 0:09:09And it's spelt H-Y-P-E-R-P-N-O-E-A.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16I think it might be... "hyper" is... I think it might be deep breathing,
0:09:16 > 0:09:20just from the word.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21Deep breathing is the right answer.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Well done, you have beaten the biochemist on his own territory.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Takes some doing.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30The Egghead will be in the final, and Rob, you won't be.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Please come back and rejoin your team-mates.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38The challengers have lost one brain from the final round.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40The Eggheads have lost one brain, so you're doing fine.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Hang on in there. The next subject for you is Film & TV.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Who would like this?
0:09:45 > 0:09:49- Gemma, do you want to do it? - Yes, I think it's got to be, hasn't it?- I will go, yeah.
0:09:49 > 0:09:50OK, Gemma against?
0:09:53 > 0:09:56- Yeah, Daphne. - I'll go against Daphne, please.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Gemma from Warwick's Got Talent against Daphne from the Eggheads.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02Please go to the Question Room now.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08All right. I'll ask each of you three questions on Film & TV in turn.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11- You can choose the first or second set.- I will go first, please.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16Here we go. Which character left EastEnders
0:10:16 > 0:10:18with much fanfare in September 2010?
0:10:24 > 0:10:27I've watched EastEnders. I don't watch it regularly.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29But I remember there being quite a big deal
0:10:29 > 0:10:32about Peggy Mitchell leaving.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35So I will go for the second answer, Peggy Mitchell.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Peggy Mitchell is right.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42Daphne, in the 1940 Disney film Pinocchio,
0:10:42 > 0:10:44who acts as the title character's conscience?
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Um...Jiminy Cricket.
0:10:55 > 0:10:56Jiminy Cricket is correct.
0:10:56 > 0:11:01I've watched it so many times with my granddaughter.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Gemma, in which film does Edward Norton play an ex-FBI agent
0:11:06 > 0:11:10alongside Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter?
0:11:16 > 0:11:18I've never watched Silence Of The Lambs.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20I've seen Hannibal.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23I can't remember seeing Edward Norton's face,
0:11:23 > 0:11:26and I haven't seen Red Dragon.
0:11:26 > 0:11:31So it's a bit of a guess, but I'll go for Red Dragon. I can't be sure.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35- But Red Dragon.- Nicely done. Red Dragon is the right answer.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Daphne, your question.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42Which 1970s TV drama serial was remade in 2010
0:11:42 > 0:11:45with Trevor Eve and Imogen Poots?
0:11:52 > 0:11:53Bouquet Of Barbed Wire.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57Bouquet Of Barbed Wire is correct. Well done.
0:11:57 > 0:11:58You're playing well, Gemma.
0:11:58 > 0:12:03In the 1942 film Casablanca, which actor says the famous line,
0:12:03 > 0:12:05"Round up the usual suspects?"
0:12:12 > 0:12:15This will be a complete guess.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20I'll go for the middle one, Peter Lorre, as a guess.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23It's not Peter Lorre. It's actually Claude Rains
0:12:23 > 0:12:27who says, "Round up the usual suspects."
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Daphne, if you get this right, you're in the final.
0:12:29 > 0:12:34What is the title of the film for which Sofia Coppola won
0:12:34 > 0:12:38the Golden Lion at the 2010 Venice Film Festival?
0:12:43 > 0:12:45It's Somewhere.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47It is indeed Somewhere.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51So you've taken the round, Daphne, with three answers correct.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Gemma, you were beaten by our Egghead. As a result,
0:12:53 > 0:12:56you won't be of help your team in the final round.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58Would you come back and join your teams?
0:13:00 > 0:13:03So, as it stands, the challengers have lost two brains
0:13:03 > 0:13:06whilst the Eggheads have lost one brain.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08The last subject is Arts & Books.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10All you students.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13- This must be perfect. - Oh-oh!- You take it!
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- Yes, Tom.- Do you want me to?
0:13:16 > 0:13:20- Yeah, I'll do it. I will take one for the team.- Tom. OK.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23- MORSE is not the arty subject. - It's not, no.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26- Which Egghead?- Don't know.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30- Just pick whichever you want. - I'll take CJ, please.- All right.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Tom from Warwick's Got Talent against the legendary
0:13:33 > 0:13:38CJ from the Eggheads. Please take your positions in the Question Room.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43- CJ, Arts & Books?- Don't mind it. - Do you read a lot?
0:13:43 > 0:13:47- I read constantly, but I never read fiction.- OK.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50MORSE does not include Arts or Books. That's fine.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52- It won't be useful in this. - You never know.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56I'll ask each of you three questions on Arts & Books in turn, and, Tom,
0:13:56 > 0:13:59you can, of course, choose the first or second set.
0:13:59 > 0:14:00I'll go second, please, Jeremy.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05All right, CJ, starting with you,
0:14:05 > 0:14:09what is the theatrical slang for when an actor forgets lines?
0:14:13 > 0:14:16I have done it myself more than once. It's drying.
0:14:16 > 0:14:20Drying is the right answer. You been in panto recently?
0:14:20 > 0:14:23I've done a couple of pantos. I've done theatre and a couple of films.
0:14:23 > 0:14:28- Films, really?- Yep. - What parts were you playing?
0:14:28 > 0:14:31In one I was the lead called The Man.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33In another one, I was a corrupt policeman.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Are these films on general release, or straight to VHS?
0:14:36 > 0:14:40- They're for the film festivals, thank you, Jeremy.- OK.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42Your question, Tom.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46Which Shakespeare play begins and ends in ancient Egypt?
0:14:52 > 0:14:57Um, it's not me just being silly,
0:14:57 > 0:15:00but I think I'm going to try and go for the obvious one.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03I'm pretty sure it's not Romeo and Juliet.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05I'll go for Anthony and Cleopatra.
0:15:05 > 0:15:06Nice one.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Anthony and Cleopatra it is.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10CJ, the American author
0:15:10 > 0:15:14Damon Runyon who died in 1946 is best known
0:15:14 > 0:15:18for his colourful stories of underworld characters in which city?
0:15:22 > 0:15:24I knew what sort of genre he was associated with,
0:15:24 > 0:15:26I didn't know it was one particular city.
0:15:27 > 0:15:32Certainly, the underworld was well-established in New York
0:15:32 > 0:15:34for the preceding decades.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37I'd be surprised if it was Detroit.
0:15:39 > 0:15:44Although that was coming into its own as the motor city then.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46I don't know it,
0:15:46 > 0:15:49but I'll just have to go for New York.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51New York is the right answer. Well done.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Tom, a tondo is a painting on a canvas of what shape?
0:15:58 > 0:16:01Spelt, T-O-N-D-O.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Tondo. Erm...
0:16:04 > 0:16:05Can't say I've heard of it.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09I can't imagine it being a diamond.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Erm...
0:16:11 > 0:16:12Tondo.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Let's go for circle.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19Well done, circle it is. Playing well, isn't he?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Good stuff. CJ, over to you.
0:16:21 > 0:16:26A famously iconic photograph taken on 23 February 1945
0:16:26 > 0:16:31by the American Joe Rosenthal shows US troops raising
0:16:31 > 0:16:33the Stars and Stripes on which island?
0:16:38 > 0:16:40It's the date that's doing it for me.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42There is the famous photograph
0:16:42 > 0:16:44of them raising the flag on Iwo Jima.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47Erm, but there were a lot...
0:16:47 > 0:16:50There was a famous campaign in Guadalcanal as well.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52It's not Guam, I don't think.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55I don't know the photographer.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57The problem is, I'm unsure with the date.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00I should just know the date straight away.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02The most famous picture
0:17:02 > 0:17:04is them raising the flag on Iwo Jima
0:17:04 > 0:17:05so I'll try Iwo Jima.
0:17:07 > 0:17:08Iwo Jima is the right answer.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10All right, Tom, your question
0:17:10 > 0:17:12to stay in the contest.
0:17:12 > 0:17:17Our Kind Of Traitor is a 2010 thriller by which author?
0:17:23 > 0:17:26I haven't heard of it.
0:17:26 > 0:17:31I can't remember seeing it in a bookshop that I've been in
0:17:31 > 0:17:33or seeing it on the bestsellers list.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37Erm, it's going to have to be a guess.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40James Patterson, prolific.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42I'll go James Patterson.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Unfortunately, you've gone to the wrong person.
0:17:45 > 0:17:50It's John le Carre, actually. Our Kind Of Traitor, he wrote that.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53Tom, you've been knocked out by CJ. CJ, you will be in the final.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57Please, both of you, come back and let us play the final round.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00So this is what we've been playing towards.
0:18:00 > 0:18:01It is time for the final round
0:18:01 > 0:18:03which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:18:06 > 0:18:08won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11So, Gemma, Rob and Tom from Warwick's Got Talent
0:18:11 > 0:18:15and Chris from the Eggheads, would you please now leave the studio?
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- Good luck to you both. - Thanks very much.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Alf, you study classics? Yes. Which includes an awful lot?
0:18:23 > 0:18:28Literature, history, culture, religion, ancient Greece and Rome.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31- And, Imogen, you've got the politics covered?- Yes.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34- Sport?- If we get sport... - We don't know anything.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37- ..we'll fall apart. - Well, it's general knowledge.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Let's see how we do. Alf and Imogen, you are playing to win
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Warwick's Got Talent £1,000.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44Judith, Kevin, CJ and Daphne, you are playing for something
0:18:44 > 0:18:47that money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53This time, the questions are all general knowledge
0:18:53 > 0:18:54and you are allowed to confer.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57So, Alf and Imogen, the question is,
0:18:57 > 0:19:01are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:19:01 > 0:19:04- I hope so. - You don't need to answer that one.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- Warwick's Got Talent, do you want to go first or second?- I don't know.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10- Shall we go first?- Yeah, OK. - We'll go first, please.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17Here is your first question. Where on a ship is the prow located?
0:19:21 > 0:19:25- I think it's the front.- That's what I thought at the start but...
0:19:25 > 0:19:28I'm pretty sure. Well, not 100% sure but I definitely think...
0:19:28 > 0:19:31- The bow is the back. - Yeah, it must be the front.- OK.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- The front. - The front is the right answer.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38Eggheads, what name is given to fabric
0:19:38 > 0:19:41woven with a pattern of diagonal parallel ribs?
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Twill is a material, isn't it?
0:19:49 > 0:19:52We will go for twill there, Jeremy. Thanks.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Twill is the right answer.
0:19:57 > 0:19:58Over to you, Warwick.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02Which duo featured on the Royal Mail's 2010 Christmas stamps?
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- I have no idea. - I think it was Wallace and Gromit.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14I think I've seen them, but that might've been a different year.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17- I'd say it's not William and Harry. - No.- Probably not.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Do you want to go for Wallace and Gromit?
0:20:20 > 0:20:23I don't think it's the Two Ronnies if only one of them is alive.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27- Shall we go for Wallace and Gromit? - Yeah.- OK.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Wallace and Gromit, but we're not sure.
0:20:29 > 0:20:34Wallace and Gromit is correct. Nice work. Two out of two
0:20:34 > 0:20:37in the final round. Eggheads, back to you.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41During World War II, which section of the German Armed Forces
0:20:41 > 0:20:44was known as the heer?
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Spelt H-E-E-R.
0:20:51 > 0:20:56It's the Army. It's the Army. Heer is the Army.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Why is heer the Army?
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Well, it was the German word.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03When the OKH, OK is Oberkommando,
0:21:03 > 0:21:06so the one for the overall Armed Forces was OKW,
0:21:06 > 0:21:09which was Oberkommando der Wehrmacht.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13OKH, Oberkommando des Heeres, is the Army.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17- Do you think he's right?- Probably.
0:21:17 > 0:21:18Eggheads, Army it is.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Two points each.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24This is the one not to fall down on, if you can.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27Just keep the pressure on them and it could go your way.
0:21:27 > 0:21:31Originating in the Canary Islands, what is a timple?
0:21:36 > 0:21:40Timple is spelt T-I-M-P-L-E.
0:21:40 > 0:21:45- Do you know?- I have no idea.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48What do you think?
0:21:48 > 0:21:53- I don't know. I don't think it's a plate.- I know.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55- I'd probably go for instrument or dress.- Yeah.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57Is instrument too obvious?
0:21:57 > 0:21:58I thought instrument,
0:21:58 > 0:22:01but I think that's cos it sounds like timpani.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04- It does. I know. What do you think? - I don't... I have no idea.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07It'll be a complete guess, whatever we go for. What do you think?
0:22:07 > 0:22:11- Shall we just go for instrument? - Yeah.- Yeah? Complete guess.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Stringed instrument.
0:22:14 > 0:22:19Complete guess and completely right. Stringed instrument it is.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Here's your third questions, Eggheads.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24If you get this wrong, they've taken the money
0:22:24 > 0:22:27and a bit of pride as well, I suspect.
0:22:27 > 0:22:33The American football linebacker Dick Butkus played for which team
0:22:33 > 0:22:36from 1965 to 1973?
0:22:41 > 0:22:43- No idea.- Anybody?
0:22:43 > 0:22:45I think this is yours, Kevin.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Hm.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53- Is it his name that's passed into the language?- Yes.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57- I think so, yeah. I don't think... - What was the name?- Dick Butkus.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01- Butkus means nothing, zero. - Yeah. B-U-T-K-U-S.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04- Presumably in the sense that nothing would get past him.- Oh, right.
0:23:04 > 0:23:10So during that period, which were the most famous team?
0:23:10 > 0:23:12The most successful?
0:23:12 > 0:23:14During that period.
0:23:15 > 0:23:21It's just before the Cowboys' best era. I...
0:23:23 > 0:23:28It may be a completely wrong thing, I've just got the tiniest,
0:23:28 > 0:23:31tiniest thing in the back of my mind that says it might be the Bears.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35Well, none of us have got anything. If you've got a slight inkling...
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Yes, it is only slight. It's only slight.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40Well, it's more than any of us have got, so go for it.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45We're ruling out the Vikings, are we?
0:23:45 > 0:23:49Yeah, I'm not associating anything with that at all.
0:23:49 > 0:23:53And I can't really associate him with the Cowboys in my mind, but just...
0:23:53 > 0:23:54I'm not sure.
0:23:54 > 0:23:59Yeah, so he wouldn't have been in the Dallas Cowboys.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01I don't think so.
0:24:01 > 0:24:06- If it's all you've got, we'll go for it.- I don't know, but the only...
0:24:06 > 0:24:10It could be completely wrong, I've got a tiny instinct
0:24:10 > 0:24:13it's the Chicago Bears, so we'll have to go for that.
0:24:13 > 0:24:17Your answer is Chicago Bears. You lost the last game, didn't you?
0:24:17 > 0:24:20- And the one before that. - And the one before that!
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Ooh, dear, Eggheads.
0:24:24 > 0:24:29- So what happens if you're wrong now?- Lose again.
0:24:29 > 0:24:30Three in a row!
0:24:30 > 0:24:34You've squeaked the right answer from the recess of Kevin's brain.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38The Chicago Bears is right. Big sigh of relief here.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Not over yet.
0:24:40 > 0:24:45Not by any means. Gets a bit harder now. We go to Sudden Death. No multiple choice.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48I don't give you the options. I need the answer from you.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51See how relieved they are over there!
0:24:51 > 0:24:54What is the capital of the US state of Indiana?
0:24:56 > 0:25:02- SHE WHISPERS - Oh!- I don't know. That's what I would assume.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05I literally have no clue. I'm rubbish at capitals.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08- What if we're wrong? - Well, I don't know any better.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12- OK, shall we go for it?- Um, hang on. Can we think of any other...?
0:25:12 > 0:25:15- I don't know any other towns in Indiana.- Well, if that's a town...
0:25:15 > 0:25:19- It does mean "town of Indiana". - That sounds good.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22OK, we're going to have a go at Indianapolis.
0:25:22 > 0:25:23Indianapolis is right.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Well done. You're doing all you can.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27You're pressing them brilliantly.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30Eggheads, Sudden Death.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Which educational institution was founded in 1895 by,
0:25:33 > 0:25:37amongst others, Sidney Webb and his wife Beatrice?
0:25:37 > 0:25:40- It's the LSE, isn't it?- Yeah.- Webb.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45- London School of Economics? - Oh, yes. Absolutely.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47They got involved in the setting up of that.
0:25:47 > 0:25:51Unless there was something else. We know they did that.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Webb and his wife did it. Is the date right?
0:25:55 > 0:25:561895.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59Well, if they... Um...
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Well, what else could it be?
0:26:01 > 0:26:05- I think that sounds about right. - Well, we know they set it up.- Yeah.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07We have to go for it.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10We know the Webbs were involved in the setting up of the LSE,
0:26:10 > 0:26:13London School of Economics, so we'll have to go for that.
0:26:13 > 0:26:18London School of Economics is the correct answer. Well done, Eggheads.
0:26:18 > 0:26:19OK, Sudden Death, back to you.
0:26:19 > 0:26:25Which British star who won a Best Actor Oscar for a 1958 film
0:26:25 > 0:26:30served in the Commandos during World War II?
0:26:32 > 0:26:37- I have no idea.- I don't.- Who that long ago would have won an Oscar?
0:26:37 > 0:26:43- I can't think of anyone...- I can't even think of any actors that...
0:26:43 > 0:26:47Um...what's his name? Sidney? No...
0:26:47 > 0:26:50- I literally have no idea. - Humphrey Bogart.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53- That's the only person I could even think of remotely.- Exactly.
0:26:53 > 0:26:57- Shall we just go for it? - Yeah. I don't know.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01We have no idea, so we're going to have a guess at Humphrey Bogart.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06It wasn't Humphrey Bogart. It's not an American. It's a British star.
0:27:06 > 0:27:07David Niven.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09David Niven.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14OK, Eggheads, if you get this right, you've won the contest.
0:27:14 > 0:27:19By what name did the 20th-century English ballerina Lillian Marks
0:27:19 > 0:27:22become better known?
0:27:22 > 0:27:26- Alicia Markova.- Alicia Markova. She was Alicia Markova.
0:27:26 > 0:27:30The 20th-century English ballerina Lillian Marks
0:27:30 > 0:27:34was better known as Alicia Markova.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36Congratulations, Eggheads, you've won.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44Commiserations, cos you were so close.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47I thought the Chicago Bears was going to elude them.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49We hoped it would!
0:27:49 > 0:27:53- Did you feel you were just on the edge of beating them?- So close.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55Yeah. So bad luck. Commiserations.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £1,000.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05That means the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:08 > 0:28:10Join us next time to see
0:28:10 > 0:28:13if a new team of Challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16£2,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
