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

0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:11 > 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 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35And taking on the might of our quiz Goliaths today

0:00:35 > 0:00:37are the Great Moulton Quizzers.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40This friends and family team from Great Moulton in Norfolk

0:00:40 > 0:00:43originally met through their children attending the same school.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46Their friendship blossomed, and they now regularly attend

0:00:46 > 0:00:50the pub quiz in their local, the Fox And Hounds. Let's meet them.

0:00:50 > 0:00:54Hi. I'm Nick. I'm 42 and I'm a marketing and propositions manager.

0:00:54 > 0:00:58Hi, I'm Sara. I'm 45 and I'm a part-time school secretary.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Hi. I'm Neil, I'm 42, and I'm a software engineer.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04Hi. I'm Lorraine. I'm 42 and I'm an associate lecturer.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07Hi. I'm Dave. I'm 45 and I'm a scientist.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11So, Nick and team, welcome. Good to see you. You quiz together.

0:01:11 > 0:01:15- That's right.- And you met as parents in the school.- Absolutely.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17So we've met in the village over the last few years

0:01:17 > 0:01:20and we quiz together and apart, actually.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23And is the pub, the Fox And Hounds, is that quite a rural pub?

0:01:23 > 0:01:25Yeah, I think you'd call it a rural pub.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27It's quite a small south Norfolk village.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30Sara, you're going to make sure you don't hit the wrong button.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32- Certainly am, Jeremy! - ALL LAUGH

0:01:32 > 0:01:36- Tell us about the incident. - Well, it's a long time ago now,

0:01:36 > 0:01:40but I was on a programme called 100 To 1...

0:01:40 > 0:01:42- With Chris Tarrant. - With Chris Tarrant.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45And I had to answer the question,

0:01:45 > 0:01:48"Which genre of films was Alfred Hitchcock most famous for?"

0:01:48 > 0:01:52And, unfortunately, I pressed the wrong button and he became

0:01:52 > 0:01:55a producer of comedy films.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57- JEREMY LAUGHS - Right, OK.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00So, well... He'll probably come up. He comes up quite a lot.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02We've got a big jackpot today, I can tell you.

0:02:02 > 0:02:06Every day there is £1,000 in cash up for grabs for our Challengers.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09But, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money

0:02:09 > 0:02:13rolls over to the next show. So, Great Moulton Quizzers,

0:02:13 > 0:02:15the Eggheads have won the last 27 games.

0:02:15 > 0:02:20- Ooh.- Which means it's £28,000 we have for you if you win today. OK?

0:02:20 > 0:02:23Can you win? Can you beat the Eggheads? Let's see.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26First Head-to-Head battle is on the subject of Film & Television.

0:02:26 > 0:02:31- Who would like this?- That's you, Nick. That's your round.- Definitely?

0:02:31 > 0:02:33- It's me.- That was pretty decisive.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Which Egghead would you like on Film & TV?

0:02:35 > 0:02:38- Judith?- Barry is good on everything else,

0:02:38 > 0:02:41not on Film & Television. If you think you can beat him,

0:02:41 > 0:02:43- take Barry.- I don't think I'd beat any of them.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45CHALLENGERS LAUGH

0:02:45 > 0:02:47- Go for Barry.- You think?- Yeah.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49- We're going to go for Barry, please.- OK.

0:02:49 > 0:02:52Neil's obviously got it all mapped out in his mind.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55So, Nick from the Great Moulton Quizzers against Barry,

0:02:55 > 0:02:57on Film & TV, from the Eggheads.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59To ensure no conferring,

0:02:59 > 0:03:01would you please take your positions in our Question Room?

0:03:03 > 0:03:06OK, so, three multiple-choice questions on Film & TV.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08Whoever answers the most questions correctly is the winner.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Nick, you can choose the first or second set.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12I'd like to go first, please.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17Here we go. Your first question, Nick. Good luck.

0:03:17 > 0:03:21In which film, released in the UK in February 2012,

0:03:21 > 0:03:25does Adam Sandler play the Sadelstein twins?

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Er, I'm not a huge fan of Adam Sandler,

0:03:31 > 0:03:33but I think that Al Pacino was in this film,

0:03:33 > 0:03:36and I think it was called Jack And Jill.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39- Jack and Jill is the right answer. Well done.- Yes!- Well done.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41Good start to your team.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43Barry. The Slipper And The Rose,

0:03:43 > 0:03:45starring Gemma Craven,

0:03:45 > 0:03:49was a 1976 film version of which fairy tale?

0:03:53 > 0:03:54I believe that was Cinderella.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58Cinderella is correct.

0:03:58 > 0:03:59Back to you, Nick.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Which country was the main setting

0:04:01 > 0:04:03for the wartime TV drama Secret Army,

0:04:03 > 0:04:07starring Bernard Hepton and Jan Francis?

0:04:11 > 0:04:14I vaguely remember watching this when I was quite young.

0:04:14 > 0:04:19I think it was the programme that was then spoofed into 'Allo 'Allo!

0:04:19 > 0:04:23It could be Belgium or France, but I'm going to go for France.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26- I think it was France. - It's actually Belgium.

0:04:28 > 0:04:29Barry, to take the lead.

0:04:29 > 0:04:35Kent Walton was an ITV commentator for over 30 years

0:04:35 > 0:04:36on which subject?

0:04:39 > 0:04:43Ooh. His name sounds familiar. Kent Walton.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46Don't think he was a horse-racing commentator.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48I think he was wrestling.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51Two falls, one submission or a knockout. Certainly was.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54You're right. Really missed that when it stopped being on TV.

0:04:54 > 0:04:57OK, so he's in the lead, Nick, and you need this question.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59Otherwise you're going to be knocked out, I'm afraid.

0:04:59 > 0:05:04Ethel Merman was married to which actor for just over a month in 1964?

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Ooh. That's a tricky one.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15I don't know it, so I'm going to have to try and think through it.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18Peter Lorre...I'm not sure.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21I think he might have been quite elderly at that point.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Lee Marvin had a reputation of being...

0:05:24 > 0:05:28Erm, it's going to be Lee Marvin or Ernest Borgnine.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31I think I'm going to plump for Lee Marvin, please.

0:05:31 > 0:05:35- Do you know, Barry?- I think I would've gone for Ernest Borgnine.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37Ernest Borgnine is the answer, Nick. Sorry.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40You've been knocked out. Barry, you will be in the final.

0:05:40 > 0:05:41Nick, you won't be.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48As it stands, the Challengers have lost one brain

0:05:48 > 0:05:50from the final round, and the Eggheads have lost no brains.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53The next subject is Politics.

0:05:53 > 0:05:54Now, which of you would like that?

0:05:54 > 0:05:58- That's you or me.- Which out of us two is it going to be?

0:05:58 > 0:06:02- I'll go, shall I?- Yeah, I think you're probably better.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04Yeah. I think that's going to be me.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06Which Egghead would you like? Can be anyone but Barry.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10- I think probably Judith.- Yup. - I think Judith.- OK.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12So it's Neil from the Great Moulton Quizzers

0:06:12 > 0:06:13versus Judith from the Eggheads.

0:06:13 > 0:06:17To make sure there's no conferring, please go to the Question Room.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20So, Neil, you did some amazing bike ride?

0:06:20 > 0:06:23It was not such an amazing bike ride,

0:06:23 > 0:06:24but it was on quite an amazing bike, yeah.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27We... It was Nick, Dave and I,

0:06:27 > 0:06:31we did a sponsored cycle ride round Norfolk.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34But we did it on one bike, so a three-seater bike.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36- It was really good fun. - So what do they call it?

0:06:36 > 0:06:37A tandem or something else?

0:06:37 > 0:06:40It's a three-seater tandem. It's called a triplet.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43A triplet? And if you don't pedal,

0:06:43 > 0:06:46- do the other two notice? - They certainly do.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49And there were times, actually, that someone would stop pedalling

0:06:49 > 0:06:51- and they got short shrift. - JEREMY LAUGHS

0:06:51 > 0:06:54- But you made it, and it was for charity?- It was, yeah.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58We were doing it in aid of a charity called The Big C,

0:06:58 > 0:07:02which is based in Norfolk, and they support cancer research.

0:07:02 > 0:07:06OK. Good luck in this round. I'll ask each of you three questions on Politics.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Whoever answers the most questions correctly is the winner.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Neil, you can choose the first or second set of questions.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14Can I go first, please, Jeremy?

0:07:17 > 0:07:19You sure can. Here we go.

0:07:19 > 0:07:23The UK Border Agency was set up as part of which government department?

0:07:27 > 0:07:31So, I think Work and Pensions and Exchequer are both

0:07:31 > 0:07:36to do with money, so it may relate to customs,

0:07:36 > 0:07:39but I think it's actually more to do with

0:07:39 > 0:07:42things like the Home Office's roles with policing and so on.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44So I think I'm going to go with Home Office.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Home Office is the right answer.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Judith.

0:07:48 > 0:07:52What term is given to the budgetary measures employed by a government

0:07:52 > 0:07:54to try to influence the economy?

0:07:59 > 0:08:02I think that might be fiscal policy.

0:08:02 > 0:08:07- You sounded uncertain.- No, I'm not. I'm always wary of obviousness.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09You are right. Fiscal policy is right.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11Your second question, Neil.

0:08:11 > 0:08:15What is the name of the political blog set up in 2002

0:08:15 > 0:08:20by Mick Fealty focusing on Northern Ireland news?

0:08:24 > 0:08:27OK. Well, I don't know.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31So, Kipper O'Malley sounds a bit fishy.

0:08:34 > 0:08:37Bagger O'Shea...no.

0:08:37 > 0:08:42OK, I'm not quite sure why, but I'm drawn to Slugger O'Toole.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45So I think I'm going to go for that. Slugger O'Toole.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47Slugger O'Toole is quite right. Well done.

0:08:48 > 0:08:49Judith, your question.

0:08:49 > 0:08:55In 2009, which actor left the cast of the medical TV series House

0:08:55 > 0:09:00to become an associate director in the Obama administration's

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Office of Public Engagement?

0:09:07 > 0:09:09I've absolutely no idea.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12I really don't know.

0:09:12 > 0:09:16Robert Sean Leonard sounds like a very official name. So...

0:09:17 > 0:09:19On the other hand, it might be...

0:09:19 > 0:09:22I just have to guess, so Robert Sean Leonard.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26You should have gone down the right. Kal Penn is the answer.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29OK. Third question to you, Neil.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Who did Jacqueline Kennedy describe

0:09:31 > 0:09:35as, "A bitter, kind of pushy, horrible woman"?

0:09:40 > 0:09:45Jackie Kennedy. So I think we're looking for someone around the '60s.

0:09:45 > 0:09:48The only person I can really think of that would...

0:09:49 > 0:09:53..fit around that time would be Indira Gandhi, but "pushy"?

0:09:53 > 0:09:56I don't think that quite fits. But no.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59I'm going to try for that. I'm going to try for Indira Gandhi.

0:09:59 > 0:10:03OK, and if you've got this one right, you've taken the round,

0:10:03 > 0:10:05cos there's no way back for our Egghead.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07Do you know, Judith, the answer?

0:10:07 > 0:10:09I would've thought it was Lady Bird Johnson.

0:10:09 > 0:10:13No, it was Indira Gandhi. Well done, Neil, you've taken the round.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15You're in the final. Judith, you've been knocked out.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17Bad luck indeed.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19Please, both of you, return to the studio here.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23As it stands, the Challengers have lost one brain,

0:10:23 > 0:10:27the Eggheads have lost one brain as well from the Final Round.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29So this is good stuff now. You're coming back.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31The next subject is Music. Who would like this?

0:10:31 > 0:10:36- I think that's going to be me.- You, Lorraine.- Yeah.- You happy with me?

0:10:36 > 0:10:39OK, Lorraine, which Egghead? Can't be Judith or Barry.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41- Who do we think for Music? - I think it'll be really tough.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45- I'd suggest Dave.- OK. - I'd try Dave.- OK.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47We'll go for Tremendous Knowledge Dave, please.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Right. Lorraine from the Great Moulton Quizzers

0:10:49 > 0:10:52versus Tremendous Knowledge Dave from the Eggheads.

0:10:52 > 0:10:55To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the Question Room.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00I'm going to ask each of you three question on Music in turn.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Lorraine, you can choose the first or second set.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05I think I will follow with the rest of my team-mates

0:11:05 > 0:11:07and I will go first, please, Jeremy.

0:11:10 > 0:11:15In 1983, David Bowie had a UK number one single with "Let's..." what?

0:11:17 > 0:11:19Ah. Now, I remember this.

0:11:19 > 0:11:24Erm, and it certainly wasn't sing, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't move,

0:11:24 > 0:11:26so I think it's Let's Dance.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Let's Dance is correct.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33Dave, which song, originally by the Bangles,

0:11:33 > 0:11:36was a UK number one for Atomic Kitten in 2001?

0:11:41 > 0:11:43Right. I don't think it's Manic Monday.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46Don't think it's Walk Like An Egyptian. I think it was number one

0:11:46 > 0:11:50for both the Bangles and the Atomic Kitten in this country.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52Eternal Flame.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55Eternal Flame is the right answer. Well done. I wouldn't have got that.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Lorraine, your question.

0:11:57 > 0:12:01Who is described in a song as, "Badder than Old King Kong,"

0:12:01 > 0:12:03and, "Meaner than a junkyard dog"?

0:12:08 > 0:12:10Ooh. Erm...

0:12:11 > 0:12:14I'm really not sure about this.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16I'm pretty sure it's not Mr Blue Sky.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19I remember that song and I don't remember those lyrics in there.

0:12:19 > 0:12:24I don't think it's Mustang Sally. I'm going to go for Leroy Brown.

0:12:24 > 0:12:27- Leroy Brown is the right answer. - Yes, well done.

0:12:27 > 0:12:32- Who wrote that? Anyone know?- Jim Croce.- It was, it was Jim Croce.

0:12:32 > 0:12:36- Who did Time In A Bottle and Operator...- Then died very young.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38Died in his 30s in a plane crash, yeah.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40Dave, here we go. Tremendous Knowledge Dave.

0:12:40 > 0:12:44At the 1997 Brits, which Spice Girl famously invited Liam Gallagher

0:12:44 > 0:12:47to, "Come and have a go if you think you're hard enough"?

0:12:50 > 0:12:52That's a good question. Erm...

0:12:53 > 0:12:56Lots of incidents at Brit Awards at those times.

0:12:56 > 0:13:02Now, I just cannot imagine Emma Bunton saying that.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05Could be my famous last words on this question.

0:13:05 > 0:13:09Posh Spice, again, it doesn't sound right, but Sporty Spice,

0:13:09 > 0:13:13who was Mel C, from Liverpool, it just seems to ring

0:13:13 > 0:13:17that she might have said that, so I'll go Sporty Spice.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19Yes, it's her, Sporty Spice.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21It's two each, it's the third question,

0:13:21 > 0:13:23and, Lorraine, it's your question.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26Ronnie Drew, Luke Kelly and Barney McKenna

0:13:26 > 0:13:29were three of the founding members of which folk group?

0:13:32 > 0:13:37Ooh. Folk isn't really my strong suit at all.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41I have... I've heard of all of them.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44But that doesn't really help particularly.

0:13:44 > 0:13:48I'm just wondering from their names if they might sound Irish at all,

0:13:48 > 0:13:50so whether they'd be The Dubliners.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54But something's drawing me to The Chieftains,

0:13:54 > 0:13:57and I don't know whether that's just because I recognise the name more.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59I think I'm going to go with The Chieftains.

0:13:59 > 0:14:02- I wish you'd stayed with The Dubliners.- Oh!

0:14:02 > 0:14:05It was great logic. The Dubliners is the right answer, Lorraine.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07So, Dave, you've got a chance to take the round

0:14:07 > 0:14:09and get your place in the final.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12Since the 1950s, which Irish town has held a festival

0:14:12 > 0:14:15which features lesser-known operas?

0:14:18 > 0:14:20Never heard of this at all.

0:14:20 > 0:14:25Erm...Pat's going to scream at me when I get this wrong.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27Wexford.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30- Pat?- He's all right, yes. That's correct.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32It's correct, he says. He's not going to scream at you at all.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35- I got away.- Wexford is the right answer. Dave, you're in the final.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37- Sorry, Lorraine. - Very sorry, Lorraine.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40You got two right, but not enough.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Please, both of you, come back to us, rejoin your teams.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47So, Nick, any change in strategy now?

0:14:47 > 0:14:51- Well, I think we're doing OK. Two through.- Two through at least, yeah.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54- Going first seems to be working reasonably well.- As planned.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57As planned, at the moment. Going reasonably to plan.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59If you were in the Great Moulton quiz now,

0:14:59 > 0:15:02doing one of the pub quizzes, would you have switched things about?

0:15:02 > 0:15:05- Er...- We'd have another beer, I think.- You'd have another beer?

0:15:05 > 0:15:07What a great idea. They'd have another beer.

0:15:07 > 0:15:10The Challengers have lost two brains,

0:15:10 > 0:15:13the Eggheads have lost one brain from the all-important Final Round.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15The last subject is Geography.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18- So which of the Challengers will be playing in this round?- You.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21Sara, do you want to take it or want me to take it?

0:15:21 > 0:15:24- No, it's got to be David. - I'll take it, Jeremy.- Yeah.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27Dave? OK, against which Egghead, Dave?

0:15:27 > 0:15:31You've got Pat and Kevin left. None is a pushover.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34I'd go for Pat, but it's a really tough one.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37- Up to you.- It's difficult.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40Difficult, but I'll try Pat, please, Jeremy.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42So it's Dave from the Great Moulton Quizzers

0:15:42 > 0:15:46versus Pat from the Eggheads and, to make sure there's no conferring,

0:15:46 > 0:15:49please take your positions.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51Dave, you're in the bridge club, is that right?

0:15:51 > 0:15:56Yes, along with Nick and Neil. We are four bridge clubs,

0:15:56 > 0:16:00which is really just an excuse to try lots of different whiskies to taste.

0:16:00 > 0:16:05I did notice that it's really a whisky club where bridge is played incidentally.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08That's true. That's just completely incidental,

0:16:08 > 0:16:12and the fact that we also drink whisky, I think, means that my bridge

0:16:12 > 0:16:15has not improved over the many years we've been playing together.

0:16:15 > 0:16:19- But you're from Scotland originally? - Yes. And my palate in whisky

0:16:19 > 0:16:23has actually improved quite a bit through these bridge evenings.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26And I have to say, even the English whisky,

0:16:26 > 0:16:29it pains me to say it as a Scotsman, is a very, very good whisky.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33All right. I'll ask each of you three questions on Geography in turn.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35Dave, you can choose the first or second set of questions.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38Well, I think I'll go with the remainder of my team

0:16:38 > 0:16:40and pick for first please, Jeremy.

0:16:43 > 0:16:46Good luck. If you get into the final, it'll be three against three.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49And it is a lot of money, £27,000, that we're playing for.

0:16:49 > 0:16:50Here's your first question.

0:16:50 > 0:16:54Which river runs along the western border of Liechtenstein?

0:16:58 > 0:17:02The western border of Liechtenstein? Liechtenstein?

0:17:02 > 0:17:06Close to Germany, of course,

0:17:06 > 0:17:08which may be the Rhine.

0:17:08 > 0:17:14The Danube also flows round that part.

0:17:14 > 0:17:18I don't think it's the Seine, which is just purely in France.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21I would...

0:17:21 > 0:17:25Possibly Danube, but I would maybe go with my first instinct,

0:17:25 > 0:17:27which was the Rhine, please, Jeremy.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29And Rhine is correct. Nice one.

0:17:29 > 0:17:31Not an easy question. Pat,

0:17:31 > 0:17:35which island has an airport named after Napoleon Bonaparte?

0:17:39 > 0:17:41Well...

0:17:41 > 0:17:44I suppose he's got connections with all three islands.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48Elba's pretty small and pretty rocky.

0:17:48 > 0:17:50It's a mountainous little island.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53I'm not sure they'd have a... They might have a small little airport,

0:17:53 > 0:17:56but they wouldn't have a substantial airport there.

0:17:56 > 0:18:01He was born in Corsica and he was exiled to St Helena.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03St Helena's a British possession.

0:18:03 > 0:18:07I'm not sure the powers-that-be would be in any rush

0:18:07 > 0:18:10to name an airport in St Helena after Napoleon,

0:18:10 > 0:18:14even though he's the most famous resident of the island.

0:18:15 > 0:18:16And he was born in Corsica.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18So, of the three,

0:18:18 > 0:18:20I think it might be Corsica.

0:18:20 > 0:18:24That's good logic and you're quite right, Pat, it is Corsica.

0:18:24 > 0:18:25Dave, your question.

0:18:26 > 0:18:31St Machar's Cathedral, which can trace its history back to 580AD,

0:18:31 > 0:18:33is in which Scottish city?

0:18:35 > 0:18:38Well, I've lived in two of those cities,

0:18:38 > 0:18:40Edinburgh and Aberdeen.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42I haven't lived in Dundee.

0:18:42 > 0:18:46And I actually lived just round the corner from St Machar Cathedral

0:18:46 > 0:18:50when I lived in Aberdeen, so Aberdeen is my answer, Jeremy.

0:18:50 > 0:18:54Right. Handy to have experienced it first hand. Brilliant.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Aberdeen is the right answer. Well done.

0:18:58 > 0:19:02Pat, Kangaroo Point is a prestigious suburb of which Australian city?

0:19:05 > 0:19:08Gosh. Kangaroo Point.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12I've only one thing that might help me.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Ah. I think there was a Kangaroo Island,

0:19:15 > 0:19:19which is a nature reserve, and, if my memory serves me,

0:19:19 > 0:19:22I think Kangaroo Island is somewhere near Adelaide,

0:19:22 > 0:19:26so perhaps Kangaroo Point, perhaps there's a link there.

0:19:26 > 0:19:27But it could be any of the three.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31I'm going to have to go for Adelaide, but it's a bit of a guess.

0:19:31 > 0:19:35- Actually, you're wrong. It's Brisbane, Pat.- Oh.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38A little murmur of anticipation here. We're on the third question.

0:19:38 > 0:19:42If you get this one right, Dave, you're in the final.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44Girona, Leda and Tarragona

0:19:44 > 0:19:48are three provinces of which Spanish region?

0:19:52 > 0:19:54Well, I have heard of them.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59The only place of those three,

0:19:59 > 0:20:03the only region I've been to of those three, is Catalonia

0:20:03 > 0:20:06and I don't remember it being one of those regions.

0:20:08 > 0:20:12It's a bit of a guess between the other two.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Er, I would say...

0:20:16 > 0:20:19- ..Andalusia, Jeremy.- It's wrong. It's Catalonia.- Ah.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23So let's see if Pat can bring it back.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26Pat, what is depicted in the eighth-century cliff carving

0:20:26 > 0:20:30at Madara in Bulgaria, which is now a World Heritage site?

0:20:35 > 0:20:38My first thought is horse and rider

0:20:38 > 0:20:40but I'm really not sure, I can't picture it.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45Mermaid? Possible. Royal coronation.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48The most elemental of those three options is the horse and rider.

0:20:48 > 0:20:52I think that's where I'm going to have to go, horse and rider.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54Horse and rider is correct. So you're level.

0:20:54 > 0:20:58After three questions, how about that? We go to Sudden Death, Dave.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01- So it gets a bit harder cos I don't give you alternatives.- OK, Jeremy.

0:21:01 > 0:21:05The Russian port of Vladivostok is on which ocean?

0:21:05 > 0:21:07Vladivostok...

0:21:07 > 0:21:10is on what ocean?

0:21:10 > 0:21:11Mmm, that's a tricky one.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14I would say... I would say...

0:21:15 > 0:21:19The only thing I can think of, Jeremy, is the Arctic Ocean?

0:21:19 > 0:21:22No. It is the Pacific.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26The Pacific.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29Pat. This for the round.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31The Ross Dependency in Antarctica

0:21:31 > 0:21:35is a region claimed by which country?

0:21:35 > 0:21:38It's like a pie chart, Antarctica,

0:21:38 > 0:21:41with all sort of segments claimed by different people,

0:21:41 > 0:21:43sometimes overlapping. Like, Australia have a piece,

0:21:43 > 0:21:45Norway have a big piece.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49I'm not certain, but my feeling is that it's New Zealand.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53New Zealand is the correct answer so, Pat, you're in the final.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55- Sorry, Dave. You nearly had him there.- Yeah.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57And, in the end, he just overtook.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00If you come back to us, we'll play the Final Round.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05So, this is what we have been playing towards, the Final Round,

0:22:05 > 0:22:07which, as always, is General Knowledge.

0:22:07 > 0:22:09Those of you who lost your Head-to-Heads

0:22:09 > 0:22:12won't be allowed to take part in this round.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14So Nick, Lorraine and Dave

0:22:14 > 0:22:16from the Great Moulton Quizzers,

0:22:16 > 0:22:20and Judith from the Eggheads, would you please now leave the studio?

0:22:22 > 0:22:23So, Sara and Neil,

0:22:23 > 0:22:28you are playing to win the Great Moulton Quizzers £28,000.

0:22:28 > 0:22:32Dave, Kevin, Pat and Barry, you're playing for something money can't buy,

0:22:32 > 0:22:35the Eggheads' very precious reputation.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40This time the questions are all General Knowledge.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42You are allowed to confer.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Sara and Neil, the question is,

0:22:44 > 0:22:47are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?

0:22:47 > 0:22:50- Can you defeat them? - We hope so.- Good.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53I love the confidence. Would you like to go first or second?

0:22:53 > 0:22:57Going first has worked quite well for us, so we're going to go first please, Jeremy.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02OK, all the best. £28,000 is a big jackpot.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07What is the name of the overall worn by astronauts

0:23:07 > 0:23:11and others who are subject to high levels of acceleration force?

0:23:15 > 0:23:18- I think Anti-G-force.- I think it's to do with blood going away

0:23:18 > 0:23:22from the brain, and that's why it's called an Anti-G-force.

0:23:22 > 0:23:26- So I think Anti-G Suit.- We think it's the Anti-G Suit, Jeremy.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29Anti-G Suit is the right answer. Well done. OK.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31One to you. Eggheads,

0:23:31 > 0:23:35the writer and artist William Blake was born in which century?

0:23:38 > 0:23:40- 18th.- 18th?

0:23:40 > 0:23:42He was born in the 18th century.

0:23:42 > 0:23:44Can you tell us exactly when, Kevin?

0:23:44 > 0:23:46Well, 1757 was the year.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48- 1757 is the year.- Yeah.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50And 18th is the correct answer.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53Isn't that amazing? How does he do that?

0:23:53 > 0:23:55Sara and Neil, OK, your second question.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58William Hedley's early steam locomotive,

0:23:58 > 0:24:01Puffing Billy, can be seen in which museum?

0:24:06 > 0:24:09- Do you know this?- I thought I did.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12I thought it was York, so I'm not right.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15- No, I think...- Very early prototype.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18Isn't it? So maybe the Science Museum?

0:24:18 > 0:24:22Well, I've been to the Transport Museum.

0:24:22 > 0:24:23I've not been to the Museum of London.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25I have been to the Science Museum

0:24:25 > 0:24:29and they have got a number of steam engine exhibits there.

0:24:29 > 0:24:32I think that's more likely than the Museum of London.

0:24:33 > 0:24:36- I think you're right. I think Science Museum.- OK.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38We think it's the Science Museum, Jeremy.

0:24:38 > 0:24:42And you've got it absolutely right. Well done.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44Chris would have known that, wouldn't he?

0:24:44 > 0:24:46Chris has probably driven it.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49Eggheads. Larry Slade and Harry Hope are characters

0:24:49 > 0:24:51in which Eugene O'Neill play?

0:24:56 > 0:24:59It's The Iceman Cometh. Yeah.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01- I'm pretty sure it's The Iceman Cometh.- Mm-hmm.

0:25:01 > 0:25:05I've seen Long Day's Journey Into Night quite recently,

0:25:05 > 0:25:07and that's the Tyrone family.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09Mourning Becomes Electra is another...

0:25:09 > 0:25:11I'm happy about... That's the one about death, isn't it?

0:25:11 > 0:25:14- Yeah, it's set in a bar... - In a bar, absolutely.

0:25:14 > 0:25:16- Iceman Cometh?- Yeah.- OK.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18I think that's The Iceman Cometh, Jeremy.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22The Iceman Cometh is the right answer.

0:25:23 > 0:25:24Yeah.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26They're hard to shake off.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28You just need them to get one wrong, then you're in.

0:25:28 > 0:25:31Just don't get anything wrong yourself. Here's the third question.

0:25:31 > 0:25:35Which word, coming from the French for nest,

0:25:35 > 0:25:37refers to a group of pheasants?

0:25:40 > 0:25:42- Nest.- I don't...

0:25:42 > 0:25:44None of them seem very French, do they?

0:25:44 > 0:25:47- We should know this, coming from the countryside.- I know.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49And having lots of pheasants in the garden!

0:25:49 > 0:25:52Is anything used in any other circumstances

0:25:52 > 0:25:54to form nest from neem?

0:25:54 > 0:25:59I would plump for neem for no other reason than it sounds more likely.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03Yeah. I'm struggling, but nothing's ringing a bell, so...

0:26:03 > 0:26:07- Neem.- It's what Nick said. If you don't know, go down the middle.

0:26:07 > 0:26:10We don't know, Jeremy, so we had this big strategy.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12If we don't know, we'll go down the middle.

0:26:12 > 0:26:14- Neem.- OK. Neem is your answer.

0:26:14 > 0:26:18Which sounds French-related. Is it right? Anyone?

0:26:18 > 0:26:21- ALL: Nye. - Nye. You all know it's Nye, do you?

0:26:21 > 0:26:23Nye is the right answer.

0:26:23 > 0:26:24But you're not out yet.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27You're not out yet. Let's see whether they get this one right.

0:26:27 > 0:26:31Completed in 2003, what type of structure was built on the site

0:26:31 > 0:26:35of the house where Tsar Nicholas II and his family were killed?

0:26:39 > 0:26:44Hmm. I've a feeling it might be, since the resurgence of...

0:26:44 > 0:26:46- It might be a church. - It's the logical answer.- Yes.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49- Have you seen anything on this, Pat?- No, no.

0:26:49 > 0:26:51I mean, it would be a natural site.

0:26:51 > 0:26:54- Given that the... Given the way that the...- Given the date.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57..the Orthodox Church has revived in Russia.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59With a church, if you build a church, you could choose

0:26:59 > 0:27:02to build it in a particular place to commemorate something.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05And railway station doesn't lend itself to that, does it?

0:27:05 > 0:27:07- No. And opera house doesn't. - Doesn't really.

0:27:07 > 0:27:11I can't really see a logical reason why it would be a railway station

0:27:11 > 0:27:13- or opera house other than just chance.- Yeah.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15And we haven't heard of it. At least with church,

0:27:15 > 0:27:18- we've got a logical reason for... - Yeah. OK, yeah.

0:27:18 > 0:27:21- OK. Does that sound good enough? - Fine, yeah.

0:27:21 > 0:27:23We don't know it, Jeremy.

0:27:23 > 0:27:26But just on the basis of the fact that it was a site

0:27:26 > 0:27:29of the martyrdom of the royal family, and there's been a revival

0:27:29 > 0:27:33of the Orthodox Church in Russia in recent years,

0:27:33 > 0:27:37it seems logical that it might be commemorated in that way.

0:27:37 > 0:27:38So we'll say church.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41Church is your answer.

0:27:41 > 0:27:45You've gone in the right direction. The answer is church, Eggheads.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Sorry, Challengers.

0:27:47 > 0:27:50We have to say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won again!

0:27:56 > 0:27:58I thought they might go away from church.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00I thought they might say railway station.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02- And those wretched pheasants. - CHALLENGERS LAUGH

0:28:02 > 0:28:05- There aren't any in Great Moulton, are there?- There's loads.

0:28:05 > 0:28:09Oh, no. Now everyone'll be saying, "Look at that nye over there."

0:28:09 > 0:28:11That's how life works, isn't it?

0:28:11 > 0:28:15The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them and their winning streak continues.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18I'm afraid that means you won't be going home with the £28,000.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21So that means the money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:21 > 0:28:25Eggheads, congratulations. This is really getting very interesting.
