0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:15Together, they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19The question is: can they be beaten?
0:00:22 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, where a team of five quiz challengers pit their wits
0:00:27 > 0:00:32against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain - the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:36And taking on our quiz Goliaths are the NSOCers.
0:00:36 > 0:00:41They all work at the NHS Service Operation Centre in Sheffield
0:00:41 > 0:00:48and were inspired to apply through a competitive spirit and passion for quiz shows. Let's meet them.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Hi, I'm Dan, I'm 30 years old and I'm an operations analyst.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56Hi. My name's Ikhlaq, I'm 30 and I'm a service analyst.
0:00:56 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Sam, I'm 25 years old and I'm a computer analyst.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi. I'm Dom, I'm 28 years old and I'm a solutions consultant.
0:01:04 > 0:01:09Hi, I'm Nick, I'm 34 years old and I'm a service support specialist.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13Welcome to you, NSOCers. I see you're getting your team name
0:01:13 > 0:01:18from the National Health Service. Not football, but do you play a bit?
0:01:18 > 0:01:23Yeah, we all play. I play five-a-side and a couple of the boys do, too.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Do you quiz together or just test each other out?
0:01:27 > 0:01:33This is the first time we've really quizzed together. It's probably not the best place to start.
0:01:33 > 0:01:40What do you do? You watch quiz shows. There's a lot of them around, but only one true quiz.
0:01:40 > 0:01:46Obviously, this is our favourite quiz show, but on our days off we're watching various quiz shows.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50When we come back to work, we test each other on the questions.
0:01:50 > 0:01:56- How do you know the other bloke hasn't watched it as well? - Well, yeah, they could be!
0:01:56 > 0:02:02So you never quiz together, but let's see how you do against the Eggheads today.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Every day there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers,
0:02:06 > 0:02:10but if they fail to win the prize money rolls over.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13The Eggheads have won the last 20 games.
0:02:13 > 0:02:19That means £21,000 says you cannot beat those Eggheads.
0:02:19 > 0:02:25Let's get straight to it, then. And our first category, one you may enjoy I hope, is Sport.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Who wants to play this?
0:02:28 > 0:02:35- For me, that's the best one, I think. So I'll go for Sport. That'll be me, Dermot.- OK, Ikhlaq.
0:02:35 > 0:02:40- You pick an Egghead, then. Any of those five because you're starting. - What do you reckon?
0:02:40 > 0:02:45- Who'd be the best one to take on? - What do you think - Barry?
0:02:45 > 0:02:50- I've seen Daphne before. I know she's very good at sport.- Barry.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Go on, Barry. I'll take you on.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55- OK.- Go on, Barry.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Actually, DO go on. You've got to go to the Question Room.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Ikhlaq and Barry.
0:03:01 > 0:03:07- Ok, Ikhlaq, you get to choose. Do you want first or second? - I'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10OK, first question to you.
0:03:10 > 0:03:17This is golf. Which English golfer became the number one ranked player in the world for the first time
0:03:17 > 0:03:18in May, 2011?
0:03:22 > 0:03:27I've been watching golf a lot recently. I've had days off work.
0:03:27 > 0:03:32I know Paul Casey and Ian Poulter haven't been number one yet,
0:03:32 > 0:03:34so I'm pretty sure it's Luke Donald.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37It is. All that time off has paid dividends.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Luke Donald, correct.
0:03:39 > 0:03:45Which sporting event did Mickael Barzalona win in 2011 at the age of 19?
0:03:49 > 0:03:55Mickael Barzalona. It wasn't the Tour de France. That was the Australian, Evans.
0:03:55 > 0:04:00Mickael Barzalona. It doesn't sound an East African name.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04I think the London Marathon was won by a Kenyan. Or an Ethiopian.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06So I shall go for the Epsom Derby.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09It's the Epsom Derby. One-all.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Ikhlaq, second question.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16Fred the Red is the official mascot of which football team?
0:04:19 > 0:04:24Em, I'm pretty sure... I don't think it's Manchester Utd. They've got a devil.
0:04:24 > 0:04:30I'm not sure what Arsenal's is, but...
0:04:30 > 0:04:33- I think it's Liverpool, Dermot. - OK, Liverpool.
0:04:33 > 0:04:38As an Arsenal fan, I can tell you we're all proud of Gunnersaurus.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42- And Liverpool are known as the Reds, so...- Yeah.
0:04:42 > 0:04:48But it is Manchester Utd. The Red Devils, but Fred the Red is the official mascot.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51So a chance for Barry.
0:04:51 > 0:04:56Where did the inaugural Youth Olympic Games take place in 2010?
0:04:59 > 0:05:03I'm not sure on this one, but Singapore's come to mind
0:05:03 > 0:05:11and I can't see why I should discount it. So as it was the first to come to mind, Singapore.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Singapore is the right answer. Yes.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Ikhlaq, you need to get this.
0:05:17 > 0:05:22In 2011, which cricketer became the youngest English bowler to take 50 Test wickets,
0:05:22 > 0:05:25breaking Ian Botham's record?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30James Anderson's a bit older,
0:05:30 > 0:05:35so it's either Stuart Broad, I think, or Steve Finn.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39I'm going to go with Stuart Broad.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Stuart Broad it is not. Steve Finn.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45He took 50 Test wickets.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48The youngest player to do that.
0:05:48 > 0:05:55Which means, I'm afraid, the tale of the scoreboard... we cannot argue with that.
0:05:55 > 0:06:00We end the round there. You can't beat Barry's score.
0:06:00 > 0:06:05So you won't be in the final round. Ikhlaq. Both please join your teams.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Well, first blood to the Eggheads. One NSOCer has gone.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12Plenty of quizzing left. Our next round is Film and TV.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Who'd like to play this?
0:06:15 > 0:06:18- That's you, Nick. - It's what we agreed.
0:06:18 > 0:06:23- Nick's going to take that. - OK, Nick. And which Egghead?
0:06:23 > 0:06:27- What do you reckon?- Want to try to knock the best one out early?
0:06:27 > 0:06:30I think maybe Pat.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32- Pat.- Do you think, Pat?
0:06:32 > 0:06:36- I'll take Pat on, Dermot. - OK, right. Going for Pat.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Let's have Nick and Pat into the Question Room now, please.
0:06:40 > 0:06:47- OK, Nick. Let's hope you have better luck than Ikhlaq. First or second?- First, please.
0:06:50 > 0:06:55Your first question here on Film and Television is this.
0:06:55 > 0:07:01"Is it still raining? I hadn't noticed," is a famous line from which film of the 1990s?
0:07:05 > 0:07:08I think definitely chick flick.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12But they're all chick flicks, so...
0:07:13 > 0:07:18I think it's one I've been forced to watch with my wife a few times.
0:07:18 > 0:07:23It's the one that popped into my head, so I think I said earlier...
0:07:26 > 0:07:29- Four Weddings and a Funeral I think it is.- OK.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Having been forced to watch it!
0:07:32 > 0:07:36Well, it was worth it. It's the right answer, yes.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40All those hours of pain.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43They paid off. First question, Pat.
0:07:43 > 0:07:49Which character in the TV soap Dallas was known to British viewers as the Poison Dwarf?
0:07:53 > 0:07:57I think she was played by Charlene Tilson. Lucy Ewing.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01- Lucy Ewing. I think it was Tilton.- Tilton.
0:08:01 > 0:08:06We might have disallowed that. Lucy Ewing is the Poison Dwarf.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- Christened by Terry Wogan. - I think so, yeah.
0:08:10 > 0:08:15She was a tiny little woman, about four and a half feet.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18He used to call Dynasty Dysentery.
0:08:18 > 0:08:23Yeah, I think it was our Tel who called her the Poison Dwarf.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26All square. Second question, Nick.
0:08:26 > 0:08:32Which American television network is sometimes referred to as the Peacock?
0:08:34 > 0:08:40I think it's called the Peacock because of the colours of the logo.
0:08:40 > 0:08:46It looks like a peacock's tail. I can see the logo, but I can't think...
0:08:46 > 0:08:49I'm going to go with NBC, Dermot.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51NBC.
0:08:51 > 0:08:57With that rainbow-coloured, peacock-type tail. It's right.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59TEAM APPLAUDS
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Well remembered there, Nick.
0:09:01 > 0:09:06Two on the board. Pat, who starred as the title character
0:09:06 > 0:09:08in the 1946 film Gilda?
0:09:12 > 0:09:18I think that was an iconic role where she played a femme fatale and it was Rita Hayworth.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Yes. Rita Hayworth is correct.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23All square
0:09:23 > 0:09:25as we go into a third question each.
0:09:25 > 0:09:31Nick, what first name was given to Oliver Hardy when he was born in the 1890s?
0:09:36 > 0:09:41For some reason, Norvell's popped out at me. I'm not sure why.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46I've no idea what it is really.
0:09:47 > 0:09:52So I think I'm going to have to go with my gut instinct. Norvell.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56You've got very assured instinct. It's the right answer again.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Three out of three.
0:09:58 > 0:10:05You need those in the final round, but you've got the small matter of trying to knock Pat out.
0:10:05 > 0:10:11Pat, who directed the films Die Hard II, Cliffhanger and Cutthroat Island?
0:10:16 > 0:10:22I think...he's Finnish. He's married to Geena Davis. I think it's Renny Harlin.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26Renny Harlin is the right answer.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28So it's all square.
0:10:28 > 0:10:36And we go to Sudden Death, Nick. That means we remove the choices you've seen so far.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40Just give me an answer without any aids.
0:10:40 > 0:10:46Who played the title role in the spoof chat show The Keith Barrett Show?
0:10:48 > 0:10:51I can't even think of a name to guess.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54I'll have a stab in the dark.
0:10:54 > 0:10:59I know it's not. Harry Hill. Just to say an answer. I've completely gone blank.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03- It's not Harry Hill.- Go on. - Pat, do you know?
0:11:03 > 0:11:09- Well, Rob Brydon rings a bell. - That's it. He was Keith Barrett.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11It's not over, Nick.
0:11:11 > 0:11:16Pat has to get his right to win it. Who played the role of George Smiley
0:11:16 > 0:11:20in the 2011 film Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy?
0:11:20 > 0:11:24This film is jam-packed with leading British actors.
0:11:24 > 0:11:29- I think George Smiley was played by Gary Oldman.- Gary Oldman...
0:11:29 > 0:11:31is the right answer, Pat.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33You knew that, Nick.
0:11:33 > 0:11:39- I knew that.- Have you seen it? - No.- But you knew it was.
0:11:39 > 0:11:43Bad luck. But Rob Brydon cost you a place in the final round.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Please come back and join your teams.
0:11:46 > 0:11:51Well, NSOCers, two brains down now. The Eggheads are all still there.
0:11:51 > 0:11:57We'll move swiftly on and hope you knock one out in this category. It's Science.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Who'd like to play?
0:11:59 > 0:12:03- I think you're the man. - You've done enough revision!
0:12:03 > 0:12:07- It's going to be Dominic. - OK, Dominic.
0:12:07 > 0:12:12And who would you like to play? Remember, Pat and Barry have played.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- Judith?- Judith, Chris or Daphne?
0:12:15 > 0:12:17I think we'll choose Judith.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Judith, on Science.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Smiling there. The rictus grin.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26Let's have Dominic and Judith into the Question Room, please.
0:12:27 > 0:12:32Well, Dom, I hope this is a category that will suit you.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35- Do you want to go first or second? - First, please.
0:12:38 > 0:12:43Best of luck, Dom. Geo-thermal energy is energy that is stored where?
0:12:46 > 0:12:51- Geo-thermal energy is energy that is stored where?- Well...
0:12:51 > 0:12:54I'm pretty sure it's not the Moon.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58So it's got to be the Sun or the Earth.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00Geo-thermal.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02I'd go with the "geo" part
0:13:02 > 0:13:06being the Earth.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08That's correct.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10One up there for Dom.
0:13:10 > 0:13:15Judith, your first question. What caused the complete disappearance
0:13:15 > 0:13:19of the Pacific island of Elugelab in the 1950s?
0:13:23 > 0:13:28- It could have been any of those, but it was the '50s?- Yeah.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31They did a lot of bomb testing,
0:13:31 > 0:13:34so I'm going to risk hydrogen bomb.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38And you're right to do so. Well done, Judith.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41And your question, Dom.
0:13:41 > 0:13:46The pudu, native to South America, is a small variety of which creature?
0:13:48 > 0:13:51For some reason,
0:13:51 > 0:13:53I would think it's cat or monkey.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58I will go with...
0:13:58 > 0:14:01- monkey.- Monkey. A small monkey.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05It's a small deer. A small variety of deer. The pudu.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07OK, see how Judith does.
0:14:07 > 0:14:11Dolerite and Gabbro are examples of which type of rock?
0:14:15 > 0:14:20I think they sound rather hard, so I think they might be igneous.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Igneous. Hard like our questions. But you've got it.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25It's the right answer.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27You've got to get this, Dom.
0:14:27 > 0:14:34In 2009, Omid was the first domestically made satellite to be launched by which country?
0:14:38 > 0:14:39Well...
0:14:39 > 0:14:44I would assume that Egypt has had satellites for longer than 2009.
0:14:47 > 0:14:51The same with Turkey. It's the first satellite that this country...
0:14:51 > 0:14:54First domestically made satellite to be launched.
0:14:54 > 0:14:59- I would go with Iran.- And you're right to do so. Yes, Iran.
0:14:59 > 0:15:04You've done well, Dom, but you've got to hope Judith doesn't get this.
0:15:04 > 0:15:09Judith, kyphosis is a medical condition which affects which part of the body?
0:15:12 > 0:15:14This is where I wish I knew Greek.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17I bet I could do it if I knew Greek.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20Kyphosis, oh, golly!
0:15:20 > 0:15:24- I don't know why, but my instinct says "eye".- You've gone for the eye.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28Instinct stood you in good stead on the last two - instinct and logic.
0:15:28 > 0:15:33This one is pure instinct. It's not the right answer. Other Eggheads?
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Curvature of the spine. Hunchback.
0:15:36 > 0:15:41- It's the spine and it's a hunched back, kyphosis.- Oh, right.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43OK, well, a let-off there, Dom.
0:15:43 > 0:15:49Good news for you. You're into Sudden Death. That means no more choices or options.
0:15:49 > 0:15:55Here's your question. What type of transport was the experimental SR-N1
0:15:55 > 0:16:00which made its maiden voyage on the 11th of June, 1959?
0:16:00 > 0:16:031959...
0:16:05 > 0:16:08For some reason I think it's the train.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11I think it's the fast train.
0:16:11 > 0:16:12Um...
0:16:13 > 0:16:19Although it could be the hovercraft, but I'm going to go with train probably. Train.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21- OK, train?- Yeah.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25It's the other one.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28- Oh!- As you were toying with there.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Hovercraft.
0:16:30 > 0:16:35Chris, our transport correspondent, what does SR-N stand for?
0:16:35 > 0:16:39- Saunders-Roe who built it.- Yes. - I don't know what the N1 stands for.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43- And Christopher Cockerell...? - Christopher Cockerell invented it.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47Well, hovercraft. Dom was thinking of that, but didn't change his mind.
0:16:47 > 0:16:53He went with the first instinct. It quite often works, but not this time.
0:16:53 > 0:16:58Judith, in which century did the Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei die?
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Um, let's think.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03I imagine he was... I think it...
0:17:03 > 0:17:0616th century, 15-something.
0:17:08 > 0:17:14I think it's either the 16th century or the 17th century.
0:17:14 > 0:17:20I'm wondering if it's slightly a trick and he just got over into the 17th century. 17th century.
0:17:20 > 0:17:2617th century. It's not slightly a trick. It is the correct answer because it's 1642.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- Well into it. - All we needed was the century.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31You're in the final round.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34Bad luck, Dom. Hovercrafts!
0:17:34 > 0:17:39So close, but not to be. Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:17:39 > 0:17:44Some great performances, NSOCers, but you still haven't knocked an Egghead out.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48You've lost three brains. The Eggheads are all still there.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Let's try and get rid of one of them on Politics.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Who's left to play? It's Sam or Dan.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56Guys, what do you reckon?
0:17:56 > 0:17:59- I'll try it.- No...- I reckon Sam.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01If you want to give it a go...
0:18:01 > 0:18:05Whoever does this, it's going to be...
0:18:05 > 0:18:11- You could be on here last against all the Eggheads.- I'll try Politics. - Sure?- Yeah. I'll try that.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13OK, Dan. And Daphne or Chris?
0:18:13 > 0:18:16- Shall I take Chris on?- Yeah.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19- I'll take Chris on. - You'll take Chris on. OK.
0:18:19 > 0:18:24Let's have Chris and Dan into the question room now, please.
0:18:24 > 0:18:30Dan, best of luck with this Politics round. Last chance to kick one of these Eggheads out.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34Kick that Egghead out. Would you like to go first or second?
0:18:34 > 0:18:37I'll stick with the winning formula and go first.
0:18:40 > 0:18:45OK, first question. How old was Winston Churchill when he died in 1965?
0:18:48 > 0:18:52How old was Winston Churchill when he died in 1965?
0:18:53 > 0:18:58He was Prime Minister in the Second World War until 1945,
0:18:58 > 0:19:02so I think he was around 50, at that age.
0:19:03 > 0:19:09If he died in 1965, I think he would have been around 70, maybe 80.
0:19:09 > 0:19:14I think he was an Admiral in the First World War again,
0:19:14 > 0:19:16so he might have been a bit older.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19- I'll try 80, Dermot.- 80, OK.
0:19:19 > 0:19:24Going down the middle for Winston Churchill. He was older than that.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27- Was he?- 90. He was around in the Boer War.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31He was a journalist in South Africa way back at the turn of the century.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35But 90, not 80. So, the first question for Chris.
0:19:35 > 0:19:42In 1950, Rajendra Prasad became the first President of which country
0:19:42 > 0:19:44after it gained its independence?
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Well, Rajendra Prasad is a Hindi name.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55So it's not Pakistan because that's a Muslim state.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59It wouldn't be Sri Lanka. It was called Ceylon then. It's India.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01- India?- Hmm.- OK...
0:20:01 > 0:20:05And it's the right answer. You have the lead.
0:20:05 > 0:20:10Dan, who wrote the book Chequers: The Prime Minister's Country House And Its History?
0:20:14 > 0:20:17I've never heard of it being a recent book,
0:20:17 > 0:20:20so I'll rule out Samantha Cameron.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24I'm not sure... Cherie Blair, it doesn't ring a bell.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26I'm going to try Norma Major.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30Norma Major, you're right, well done. Yes, John Major's missus.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33Chris, second question for you.
0:20:33 > 0:20:38Michael Ancram and Jeremy Hanley are former Chairmen of which political party?
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Jeremy Hanley is the brother of Jenny Hanley
0:20:44 > 0:20:47who used to be on Magpie. They're both Conservatives.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50Conservative is the right answer.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54Weren't they both the son and daughter of Jimmy Hanley?
0:20:54 > 0:20:58- Jimmy Hanley and Dinah Sheridan. - Can I come on the Eggheads?
0:20:58 > 0:21:00That's not written down.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Well, you're back in the lead, Chris.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Dan, you've got to get this then.
0:21:05 > 0:21:12In the 1970s, Sara Jane Moore was imprisoned after an assassination attempt on which American President?
0:21:16 > 0:21:19I think they all were Presidents in the '70s.
0:21:20 > 0:21:25I've never heard of this, so I've go no idea of which year in the '70s.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28I think the most controversial was Nixon,
0:21:28 > 0:21:34so maybe an attempt would have taken place on his life.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37But I'm going to try Gerald Ford.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41Good on you. It's the right one. Yes, Gerald Ford got it by default,
0:21:41 > 0:21:46took over from Richard Nixon when he resigned.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50So, you're still in it. Chris, try this for size.
0:21:50 > 0:21:56In 1968, the American navy ship the USS Pueblo was captured and held by which country
0:21:56 > 0:21:59where it still remains today as a museum ship?
0:22:02 > 0:22:06She was spying on the North Koreans at the time, so it's North Korea.
0:22:06 > 0:22:10Faint hopes extinguished there, Dan.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14It's the right answer, Chris. You're in the final round. Bad luck, Dan.
0:22:14 > 0:22:19A real revival after tripping up on the first question, but too little, too late.
0:22:19 > 0:22:23Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:22:23 > 0:22:29This is what we've been playing towards - the final round which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:22:29 > 0:22:33But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads can't take part,
0:22:33 > 0:22:39so I'm only looking one way - Dan, Ikhlaq, Dom and Nick from the NSOCers,
0:22:39 > 0:22:41please leave the studio now.
0:22:41 > 0:22:46So, Sam, you're playing to win the NSOCers £21,000.
0:22:46 > 0:22:53Daphne, Chris, Barry, Pat and Judith, you're playing for something money can't buy - your reputation.
0:22:53 > 0:22:58I ask each team three questions in turn. The questions are all General Knowledge.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00You are allowed to confer.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04Sam, the question is, is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?
0:23:04 > 0:23:07- Do you want to go first or second? - First, please.
0:23:11 > 0:23:16And your first question is this. Which actress married Daniel Craig in June 2011?
0:23:19 > 0:23:22Anna Friel was the first name that came into my head.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25Can you read the question again, please?
0:23:25 > 0:23:28Yeah. Right, exactly. Just relax.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33Which actress married Daniel Craig in June 2011?
0:23:34 > 0:23:39I'll go for Rachel Weisz, but it is a bit of a guess.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41You changed. Why did you change?
0:23:41 > 0:23:44On hearing the question, it jumped out.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47- It's the right answer.- Excellent.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50I'm sure my team-mates are happy.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54You bet they are! You're making four guys behind you very happy!
0:23:54 > 0:23:57OK, Eggheads, in the 20th century,
0:23:57 > 0:24:03Leo Burnett, David Ogilvy and J Walter Thompson were leading names in which industry?
0:24:06 > 0:24:10In the 20th century, Leo Burnett, David Ogilvy and J Walter Thompson
0:24:10 > 0:24:13were leading names in which industry?
0:24:13 > 0:24:16That's advertising.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20Advertising is correct, Eggheads. So we go back to you, Sam,
0:24:20 > 0:24:24after a good start, tricky for you and negotiated it well.
0:24:24 > 0:24:29In the 18th century, Deacon William Brodie lived a double life
0:24:29 > 0:24:35as part of a gang of burglars while serving as a councillor of which Scottish city?
0:24:37 > 0:24:41In the 18th century, Deacon William Brodie lived a double life
0:24:41 > 0:24:46as part of a gang of burglars while serving as a councillor
0:24:46 > 0:24:48of which Scottish city?
0:24:48 > 0:24:51I really don't know. Again this would be a guess.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56The answer on the right served me well last time
0:24:56 > 0:25:00and that's what's jumping to mind this time as well,
0:25:00 > 0:25:02so I'll have to go for Aberdeen.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05Aberdeen for Deacon Brodie
0:25:05 > 0:25:07and his burglars' gang.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10It's not the right answer.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13No, not this time. Not on the right. Eggheads?
0:25:13 > 0:25:15- Edinburgh.- Edinburgh.
0:25:15 > 0:25:19He inspired Robert Louis Stevenson's Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Well, reading that, it makes sense.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25Nothing for Sam. What will the Eggheads get out of their question?
0:25:25 > 0:25:27We'll find out now.
0:25:27 > 0:25:34Which American band had UK top 40 singles in the 1980s with Big Fun and Oops Upside Your Head?
0:25:39 > 0:25:42Which American band had UK top 40 singles
0:25:42 > 0:25:48in the 1980s with Big Fun and Oops Upside Your Head?
0:25:48 > 0:25:51The big hit for Fat Larry's Band was Zoom.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55I'm not sure I've heard of them having many other hits.
0:25:55 > 0:25:59I don't know much about The Gap Band and The Average White Band.
0:25:59 > 0:26:03I'd suggest eliminating Fat Larry. I don't think it's Fat Larry's Band.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06It's a pick between the other two.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10My inkling would be The Gap Band, but it's really just a punt.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12There's no confidence.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Inklings have served us well in the past.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17Right.
0:26:17 > 0:26:21Pat's inkling is that it's The Gap Band.
0:26:21 > 0:26:26So, five Eggheads and all you've got is a little inkle from Pat?
0:26:26 > 0:26:28- Yes.- That's it.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31It's enough. It's the right answer, The Gap Band.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34Bad luck, Sam. Hopes rising there, I guess.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37But it means you've got to get this.
0:26:37 > 0:26:43In which decade did the Rutan Voyager become the first aircraft to fly around the world
0:26:43 > 0:26:45without stopping or refuelling?
0:26:49 > 0:26:52In which decade did the Rutan Voyager...
0:26:52 > 0:26:54That's R-U-T-A-N.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57..did the Rutan Voyager become the first aircraft
0:26:57 > 0:27:00to fly around the world without stopping or refuelling?
0:27:00 > 0:27:02It's obviously a big feat,
0:27:02 > 0:27:07but I would have thought it might have been done before the 1990s.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12So I'm leaning towards either the '70s or '80s.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19I would probably... I'd probably have to go for the '70s
0:27:19 > 0:27:22OK, the 1970s for the Rutan Voyager...
0:27:22 > 0:27:25What did it do, Eggheads?
0:27:25 > 0:27:29Do you know how it did it? It wasn't solar-powered or anything?
0:27:29 > 0:27:33No, it was just a weird, higher spec ratio, wing-type thing...
0:27:33 > 0:27:35- Was there anyone on board?- Yeah.
0:27:35 > 0:27:40OK. And it did it in the 19...
0:27:40 > 0:27:41- 80s.- Oh!
0:27:41 > 0:27:44Oh, no. Which means, Eggheads, you've won.
0:27:49 > 0:27:54Good analysis on that question - not the '90s. I thought you'd go for the '80s.
0:27:54 > 0:28:00But the way those head-to-heads just went a bit wrong for all the other guys, you were left on your own.
0:28:00 > 0:28:06I thought I might come in as the Lone Ranger, but I went out as the sacrificial lamb.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09You certainly were not that.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13You did very, very well there in the final round.
0:28:13 > 0:28:19It's always tough, but just the head-to-heads went the wrong way and you had no support.
0:28:19 > 0:28:25Thank you, NSOCers, for taking on the Eggheads, but they have done what comes naturally to them
0:28:25 > 0:28:28and their winning streak continues.
0:28:28 > 0:28:34You won't be going home with the £21,000. The money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:37 > 0:28:43Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46It's £22,000 that says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
