0:00:03 > 0:00:07These 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?

0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, where five quiz challengers pit their wits

0:00:27 > 0:00:33against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. They are the Eggheads.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35Taking on our quiz Goliaths today

0:00:35 > 0:00:39are the Worm Charmers from Devon.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42They quiz together at The George in Blackawton.

0:00:42 > 0:00:48When not quizzing, they prepare for the village's world-famous Worm Charming Festival.

0:00:48 > 0:00:51Sounds fascinating. Let's meet them.

0:00:51 > 0:00:55My name's Phil, I'm 61 and a musician.

0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi. I'm Nick, I'm 54 and I'm a cadet manager.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02Hi, I'm Pete, I'm 54 and I'm a builder.

0:01:02 > 0:01:07Hello. I'm Philip, I'm 48 and an independent financial adviser.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11Hi, I'm Jos, I'm 59 and I'm a bookkeeper.

0:01:11 > 0:01:16Phil and team, welcome. I need to know more about worm charming.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19Firstly, what the point of it is.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22I'll pass you over to Nick. He's our worm master.

0:01:22 > 0:01:28I'm the worm master for the festival and what we try to achieve is to get 300 or 400 people

0:01:28 > 0:01:34in a secret field trying to get as many worms out of the ground as they can from one square metre

0:01:34 > 0:01:37without digging or forking.

0:01:37 > 0:01:43- And so how do you do it? You sing to them?- People have done feng shui, played violins, trumpets,

0:01:43 > 0:01:47- but most people bring a fluid. - A fluid?- A fluid of some sort.

0:01:47 > 0:01:54An elixir with their secret ingredient, but before they use it we make them drink some of it first.

0:01:54 > 0:01:59Is this the maddest thing we've ever heard about? It's quite close.

0:01:59 > 0:02:05- What's the record, then? - It's 150.- 150 worms? - Yes. In 15 minutes.

0:02:05 > 0:02:11- They all suddenly come to the surface?- Yes.- And what was the elixir?- We don't know.

0:02:11 > 0:02:16We'd like to find out! Anyone seen this amazing thing?

0:02:16 > 0:02:18I've seen it on television.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21I saw children doing it.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25- That's right.- Well, we'll get round to it later on if there's time.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29Every day there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers,

0:02:29 > 0:02:33but if they fail to win, the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37So, Worm Charmers, the challengers won the last game.

0:02:37 > 0:02:42That means £1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:42 > 0:02:48The first Head to Head is on Film and TV. Which one of you wants it?

0:02:48 > 0:02:50That will be...Peter.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Peter will do Film and TV.

0:02:53 > 0:02:58- Good luck, Pete. - Any Egghead that you fancy there? - Do you want to test David?

0:02:58 > 0:03:01Dave, yeah. Go for Dave.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03Tremendous Knowledge Dave.

0:03:03 > 0:03:07Peter from the Worm Charmers against Tremendous Knowledge Dave.

0:03:07 > 0:03:13To ensure there's no conferring, would you please take your positions in the Question Room?

0:03:13 > 0:03:20Good luck. Three multiple choice questions. Pete, do you want to go first or second?

0:03:20 > 0:03:23I'd like to go first, please.

0:03:24 > 0:03:30Here we go. In what capacity did Robert Dougall regularly appear on television?

0:03:34 > 0:03:39Yeah, this goes back to the 1960s,

0:03:39 > 0:03:411970s.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44I believe he was a newsreader.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46He was a newsreader. Quite right.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49OK, Dave, your question.

0:03:49 > 0:03:55According to a 1970s public information film, motorists should think once, think twice, think what?

0:03:59 > 0:04:04Em, I think it was about... It wasn't bridge and bollards.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06I think it's bike.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09Bike is the right answer. Well done.

0:04:09 > 0:04:14- "Think bollard" would be a strange one.- Yeah.- OK, Pete.

0:04:14 > 0:04:19Which 1978 film was Warren Beatty's directorial debut?

0:04:24 > 0:04:28Heaven Can Wait I'm pretty sure is the one that bombed.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32Reds, I'm not too sure.

0:04:32 > 0:04:36And I think I'll go for Dick Tracy.

0:04:36 > 0:04:41No, it's interesting. I had the same thought as you.

0:04:41 > 0:04:46I thought Heaven Can Wait bombed, but that's Heaven's Gate.

0:04:46 > 0:04:53The answer is Heaven Can Wait. They're all Warren Beatty? What was Heaven Can Wait about?

0:04:53 > 0:05:00- An American footballer who dies and sort of goes to heaven and is given a second chance.- OK.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Did it bomb? No?

0:05:02 > 0:05:06- It was a successful film.- OK, your chance to take the lead, Dave.

0:05:06 > 0:05:12In which sitcom did the title characters live next door to the Fourmile family?

0:05:17 > 0:05:23Right. I don't think it's Terry and June, I don't think it's Steptoe and Son.

0:05:23 > 0:05:29I seem to remember the Fourmiles were quite...

0:05:29 > 0:05:35There was one middle-aged man who wasn't too happy with the antics of George and Mildred.

0:05:35 > 0:05:39I used to love this comedy. George and Mildred is right.

0:05:39 > 0:05:43- With Yootha Joyce and... - Brian Murphy.- Brian Murphy, yeah.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46They were brilliant.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49OK, Pete, you need to get this right or you're out.

0:05:49 > 0:05:57Which James Bond actor made his movie debut as Philip II in the 1967 film The Lion In Winter?

0:06:03 > 0:06:06Once again, I'm not too sure about this one.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11So...I'm going to have to go for Timothy Dalton.

0:06:11 > 0:06:15Timothy Dalton is the right answer. Well done.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Very tricky.

0:06:17 > 0:06:23Dave, if you get this one right, you're in the final round. Which Hitchcock movie was filmed in 3D?

0:06:28 > 0:06:30Right. Now then...

0:06:31 > 0:06:36It's not Dial M For Murder, I don't think.

0:06:36 > 0:06:42I'm going to have to go... It's a turkey shoot between Vertigo and Rear Window.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45I'll have to go, in this case, Vertigo.

0:06:45 > 0:06:50- Dial M For Murder is the answer. - I ruled it out straight away!

0:06:50 > 0:06:53OK, Pete, this is good.

0:06:53 > 0:06:59You both got two right. We go to sudden death, Pete. It means it's a bit harder.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01I don't give you alternatives.

0:07:01 > 0:07:07Which 1991 film had both of its stars nominated for the Best Actress Oscar?

0:07:08 > 0:07:101991?

0:07:11 > 0:07:14I can't think of a film, actually.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18What shall I go for? Out of Africa.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22No, Thelma and Louise. Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon.

0:07:22 > 0:07:27But Jodie Foster for Silence of the Lambs won it.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29OK, for the round, Dave.

0:07:29 > 0:07:36In which 1965 Western does Lee Marvin play both Kid Shelleen and his brother, Tim Strawn?

0:07:36 > 0:07:44- Let's go for it. Cat Ballou. - Cat Ballou is the right answer! He won an Oscar for both performances,

0:07:44 > 0:07:46but he must have won just one Oscar.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Dave, you've taken the round.

0:07:48 > 0:07:54Sorry, Pete. He is very, very good. You won't be in the final. He will.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57Please come back and rejoin your teams.

0:07:57 > 0:08:04So the challengers have lost one brain from the final round, but there's plenty of time here.

0:08:04 > 0:08:10Guys? At this point in a worm contest, what would you do? Bring on a new elixir?

0:08:10 > 0:08:12Oh, yes.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15The next subject is History.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17Who'd like this? Can't be Pete.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20- It's down to me. - Jos, isn't it?

0:08:20 > 0:08:24- Jos, don't go yet! - Don't go just yet!

0:08:24 > 0:08:28- We've got to pick an Egghead. - It would be easier without one.

0:08:31 > 0:08:35- Which one of these? - That is tough.- It is, isn't it?

0:08:35 > 0:08:39It is tough, this one. How about Pat?

0:08:39 > 0:08:45- Would that be a suggestion for you? - Yeah.- We'll choose Pat, then.

0:08:45 > 0:08:50OK, it's going to be Jos from the Worm Charmers trying to make sure that Pat

0:08:50 > 0:08:57goes back underground. How's that for my little worm, Eggheads connection? Didn't work.

0:08:57 > 0:09:03To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the Question Room.

0:09:03 > 0:09:08I'll ask three questions on history. It may or may not include worm charming, Jos.

0:09:08 > 0:09:14- Whoever answers the most correctly is the winner. First or second? - I'd like to go first, please.

0:09:17 > 0:09:24Here we go. The Queen's 1957 Christmas message was the first to be broadcast in which medium?

0:09:26 > 0:09:29Now then, I think...

0:09:29 > 0:09:34it had been on the radio for some time, hadn't it?

0:09:34 > 0:09:40And Morse Code, I guess, has been going for longer.

0:09:40 > 0:09:44So I would have said I'll go for television.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Television is quite right.

0:09:47 > 0:09:52Broadcasting in Morse Code. It would take a while, wouldn't it?

0:09:54 > 0:10:01What name was given to the fear that Communists were infiltrating American life in the 1950s?

0:10:05 > 0:10:10Well, Reds is the standard American term for Russian Communists.

0:10:10 > 0:10:16They worked themselves up into something of a frenzy, people like McCarthy.

0:10:16 > 0:10:18I think it must be Red Scare.

0:10:18 > 0:10:23Red Scare is the right answer. Well done. OK, over to you, Jos.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26Which town taken by Cromwell in 1658

0:10:26 > 0:10:31was sold to Louis XIV by Charles II in 1662?

0:10:36 > 0:10:39Well, they're all French towns, obviously.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42And...

0:10:42 > 0:10:47all famous in their own way. However, I think the English

0:10:47 > 0:10:53have had most connection with Calais. And I would guess that that was the one that was sold.

0:10:53 > 0:10:57- I'll go for Calais. - As a matter of fact it's Dunkirk.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00It's Dunkirk.

0:11:00 > 0:11:06Which of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World was destroyed by the Goths in AD262?

0:11:12 > 0:11:15I don't think they...

0:11:15 > 0:11:19They don't know where the Hanging Gardens of Babylon were.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22They were obliterated a long time ago.

0:11:22 > 0:11:29The Temple of Artemis was burned down by - what's his name? - Herostratus.

0:11:29 > 0:11:36He wanted to ensure his name lived forever, so he burnt it down as an act of vandalism.

0:11:36 > 0:11:41The statue of Zeus is at Olympia, so it's in Greece.

0:11:41 > 0:11:45If the Goths are coming from central, northern Europe,

0:11:45 > 0:11:48I suppose Greece is slightly handier.

0:11:48 > 0:11:53They could go down to Ephesus or all the way to Syria, Iraq.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55So I don't know the answer,

0:11:55 > 0:11:59but I'll speculate on the statue of Zeus.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01Temple of Artemis is the answer.

0:12:01 > 0:12:06How about that? A bit of surprise here on the Eggheads' side.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09- I'm quite surprised.- You, too?

0:12:09 > 0:12:13- It was rebuilt after it was burnt down the first time.- OK.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15There we are. Level pegging.

0:12:15 > 0:12:19- How about that, Jos?- I'm still in with a chance.- You very much are.

0:12:19 > 0:12:25Get this and put pressure on him. Which King of England is said to have remarked of his family

0:12:25 > 0:12:29that they "come of the devil" and to the devil they would go?

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Wow. Now that's a question and a half.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39To the devil they would go...

0:12:39 > 0:12:45I don't think it was Richard I because he was always too busy off fighting in the Crusades.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48So I'll probably eliminate him.

0:12:48 > 0:12:53So it's really between Edward II and Henry V.

0:12:54 > 0:13:00Edward II I don't really fancy, so I'm going to go for Henry V.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05- Anyone know on this side? - Richard I.- Richard I, Jos.

0:13:05 > 0:13:10- Oh, gosh.- Pat, if you get this one right, you've taken the round.

0:13:10 > 0:13:14Which US President appointed the former child actor Shirley Temple

0:13:14 > 0:13:18as a member of the American delegation to the United Nations?

0:13:24 > 0:13:31She became Shirley Temple Black on marriage. I think she was an ambassador to places like Ghana.

0:13:31 > 0:13:36I can't really do anything date-wise with that.

0:13:36 > 0:13:41It could have been early or late. She finished acting around 20,

0:13:41 > 0:13:46so she had a short career as you'd expect from a child star.

0:13:48 > 0:13:54It could be Eisenhower. I don't think it's Reagan. It's either Eisenhower or Nixon.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00I'll go for Nixon, but I'm not sure.

0:14:00 > 0:14:05Richard Nixon is quite right. Well done. You've taken the round.

0:14:05 > 0:14:09- Never mind.- If you come back to us, we can play on.

0:14:09 > 0:14:16The challengers have lost two brains, the Eggheads have lost none. They look just a little bit smug.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19The next subject is Sport. Who'd like Sport?

0:14:19 > 0:14:21Right. He's got to be our man.

0:14:21 > 0:14:27- Yes. Philip?- I'll do Sport. - Sitting on the right. - Against which Egghead?

0:14:27 > 0:14:30It can't be Pat or Dave.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33- Daphne?- I think so, too. - Daphne?

0:14:33 > 0:14:38You think about this now. You get beaten by Daphne, your name will be...

0:14:38 > 0:14:44- I'll never go in the pub again! There's an incentive. - That's an insult to our Daphne.

0:14:44 > 0:14:52- Daphne, please.- Philip against the charming Daphne from the Eggheads. Please go to the Question Room.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58- Phil, you're the choice for sport. - Yes, for my sins.

0:14:58 > 0:15:03- And you think Daphne is weak in that area?- The team seem to think that!

0:15:03 > 0:15:08OK, good luck. Three questions. Philip, the first or second set?

0:15:08 > 0:15:10I'd like to go second, please.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15OK, here we go, Daphne.

0:15:15 > 0:15:21In 2005, footballer Robin van Persie made his full international debut for which country?

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Football?!

0:15:27 > 0:15:29Oh, God. Em...

0:15:31 > 0:15:35I think he's Dutch, so Netherlands?

0:15:35 > 0:15:39Netherlands is the right answer. Over to you, Philip. In the US,

0:15:39 > 0:15:44the Golden Gloves is a well-known amateur competition in which sport?

0:15:46 > 0:15:49I don't think it's snowboarding and there's no gloves in archery,

0:15:49 > 0:15:53so I'll go for boxing, please.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56- Philip, you're right. Boxing.- Yeah!

0:15:56 > 0:15:58Great excitement here.

0:15:58 > 0:16:03Daphne, Louis Deacon, born in 1980, found fame in which sport?

0:16:07 > 0:16:10I haven't heard of him in snooker.

0:16:12 > 0:16:16I haven't heard of him in swimming, so rugby union?

0:16:18 > 0:16:21- No?- Rugby union is correct.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23Oh!

0:16:23 > 0:16:25Elimination is the key.

0:16:25 > 0:16:31OK, Philip, the King's Course and Queen's Course are famously part of which golfing venue?

0:16:36 > 0:16:39I don't think it's Muirfield.

0:16:40 > 0:16:45Royal Troon, I suppose that's got the King and Queen.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49- I'm going to go for Gleneagles. Yes, Gleneagles.- Is he right, team?

0:16:49 > 0:16:53- Yes!- Yes, you're right. Well done. - Well done, Phil!

0:16:53 > 0:16:56Two points each. OK.

0:16:56 > 0:17:01Daphne, the stick and ball game known as cammag is most associated with which island?

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Oh. Could you spell it?

0:17:07 > 0:17:09C-A-M-M-A-G.

0:17:12 > 0:17:13Well...

0:17:14 > 0:17:17It...

0:17:17 > 0:17:23To me, the only one that's got a language, so it might be different,

0:17:23 > 0:17:27is the Isle of Man. So that's what I'll go for.

0:17:27 > 0:17:32Isle of Man is the right answer. Nice one. OK.

0:17:32 > 0:17:38Philip, if you get this wrong, you've been knocked out. Aaron Rogers

0:17:38 > 0:17:44was named which sport's most valuable player for 2011? Aaron is spelt A-A-R-O-N.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49Right.

0:17:49 > 0:17:53I'm going to have to have a guess on this one, I'm afraid.

0:17:53 > 0:17:57I'm drawn to basketball. I don't know why.

0:17:57 > 0:18:02So I'll go with... yeah, basketball?

0:18:02 > 0:18:07- You don't sound very certain.- I'm not, no.- All American-based.- Yeah.

0:18:07 > 0:18:12It's American football. I'm sorry. You've been knocked out by Daphne.

0:18:12 > 0:18:18Daphne, well done. You're in the final yet again. Please both of you come back here to the studio.

0:18:20 > 0:18:26So the challengers have lost three brains, the Eggheads have still not lost a brain.

0:18:26 > 0:18:30Just keep pummelling them and the worms will come to the surface.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34The last subject is Science. Who'd like this? Is that good?

0:18:34 > 0:18:39- Nick or Phil, it's got to be one of you two.- It's got to be Nick!

0:18:39 > 0:18:41- Yeah.- OK, Nick.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45The worm master against which Egg?

0:18:45 > 0:18:47Barry or Chris?

0:18:48 > 0:18:53- Let's get Chris out the way. - Yes, I think so. I'll go for Chris.

0:18:53 > 0:18:57OK, so it is Nick against Chris from the Eggheads.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.

0:19:01 > 0:19:08- Nick, tell us about your top. It looks unusual.- It's a vicar's cassock from a charity shop.

0:19:08 > 0:19:14And my dear lady wife who makes her own fancy dress costumes

0:19:14 > 0:19:18put some worms on them to make me look like a worm master.

0:19:18 > 0:19:23- And that is your role in the village.- It is, yeah.

0:19:23 > 0:19:29- You'll check the worms that come above ground and count them? - We have an international judge.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32I'm busy compering the whole event.

0:19:32 > 0:19:37- And do you get a prize for the largest worm or it just quantity? - It's quantity.

0:19:37 > 0:19:41- So if a whole load of very small worms come out, that counts?- Yes.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45- Are you allowed to cut worms in half?- Certainly not. It kills them.

0:19:45 > 0:19:51- And when you release them back, is it to the same holes?- Yes. Straight back where we got them.

0:19:51 > 0:19:57- Do they eat or drink the elixir? - Well, there's something that attracts them.

0:19:57 > 0:20:02- I guess it's the elixir that must bring them to the surface. - Is the field special in some way?

0:20:02 > 0:20:07- Yes, it's secret.- No, I wonder why it has so many worms in it.

0:20:07 > 0:20:13There are lots of worms in any field. If you go past a field full of cows,

0:20:13 > 0:20:19- the number of worms in that field will far outweigh the cows in weight.- Is that right? Chris?

0:20:19 > 0:20:22Yeah, there's a lot of worms out there.

0:20:22 > 0:20:28- So a field will have heavier worms than cows?- Mm-hm.- OK. That's a good fact.

0:20:28 > 0:20:36- That could be a Steve Wright factoid. We love your top and we wish you well on Science.- Thank you.

0:20:36 > 0:20:41- Do you want the first or second set? - I'd like to go first, please.

0:20:44 > 0:20:52The process of setting up measuring equipment so that it conforms to a standard is known as what?

0:20:54 > 0:21:00Em, filtration is to remove something from something else.

0:21:00 > 0:21:04Titration, I don't know what that is.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06I'm fairly certain it's calibration.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09Well done. It is calibration.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11See if you can get in the final.

0:21:11 > 0:21:18In the name of the class of drugs known as NSAID, what does the letter S stand for? NSAID is N-S-A-I-D.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25Aye...

0:21:26 > 0:21:30Well, surgical, that's getting in there with knives and hardware.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33It wouldn't be a drug as such.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36Swelling, you'd want an anti-inflammatory.

0:21:36 > 0:21:40So since steroids are drugs, I'll go with steroidal.

0:21:40 > 0:21:45Steroidal is the right answer. Well done. Back to you, Nick.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49WIMP, a computing acronym relating to graphical user interfaces,

0:21:49 > 0:21:53usually stands for Windows, Icons, Menus and what?

0:21:56 > 0:22:01Oh. This isn't my strong department, I have to say.

0:22:01 > 0:22:05I think pixels is what makes up the screen, when we look at it.

0:22:06 > 0:22:11Pointers... I feel comfortable with going for peripherals.

0:22:12 > 0:22:16- Anyone on your team know? - Not really, but I think he's right.

0:22:16 > 0:22:23- It's not. It's pointers.- OK. - It must be the mouse action and all that.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26Chris, what property of water

0:22:26 > 0:22:32has a value of 0.07275 joules per square metre at 20 degrees Celsius?

0:22:37 > 0:22:40Well, joules is a measure of energy.

0:22:42 > 0:22:46Per square metre. That's an area.

0:22:46 > 0:22:52So surface tension must be measurable, so it's surface tension.

0:22:52 > 0:22:57Surface tension is right. Two out of two. He's taken the lead here, Nick.

0:22:57 > 0:23:03Got to get this right. What species of moth has the scientific name lymantria dispar?

0:23:07 > 0:23:11OK. The only one I know there is a gypsy moth.

0:23:14 > 0:23:18The wax and the satin moth I'm not familiar with,

0:23:18 > 0:23:22but I'm going to go for wax moth.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Ah! Eggs?

0:23:24 > 0:23:27- Do you know?- Satin? - They're drawing a blank as well.

0:23:27 > 0:23:32- It's a tough one, this. It's the gypsy moth, Nick.- OK.

0:23:32 > 0:23:36I'm sorry. There's no way back. Chris is in the final round

0:23:36 > 0:23:43and you've been knocked out. So the final round looks tricky, but it can be done.

0:23:43 > 0:23:47Both come back to us and we will play it.

0:23:47 > 0:23:53So this is what we have been playing towards - the final round, which is on general knowledge.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55But those of you who lost

0:23:55 > 0:24:01won't be allowed to take part, so Nick, Pete, Philip and Jos from the Worm Charmers,

0:24:01 > 0:24:05would you please now leave the studio?

0:24:05 > 0:24:09Good luck, Phil. You are playing to win the Worm Charmers £1,000.

0:24:09 > 0:24:15Pat, Barry, Chris, Daphne and Dave are playing for something money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.

0:24:15 > 0:24:22I will ask each team three questions. They're all general knowledge and you can confer.

0:24:22 > 0:24:29So, Phil, the question is is your one brain able to take out the Eggheads' five?

0:24:29 > 0:24:33- Would you like to go first or second?- I'd like to go first.

0:24:36 > 0:24:41Good luck. What term is often used to refer to a satisfied participant?

0:24:46 > 0:24:47Em...

0:24:47 > 0:24:50I would...I would think...

0:24:50 > 0:24:54It wouldn't be a happy mountaineer, I wouldn't have thought.

0:24:54 > 0:25:00Happy rambler doesn't come to mind. I'll plump for happy camper.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Happy camper is correct.

0:25:02 > 0:25:04Eggheads, in a speech

0:25:04 > 0:25:10in London in 1856, who proclaimed, "History is the judge, its executioner the proletarian"?

0:25:14 > 0:25:16Karl Marx.

0:25:16 > 0:25:22- Sounds good to me.- When one hears the world "proletariat", one thinks of Karl Marx. That's our answer.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25You got it right. Karl Marx it is.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27Back to you, Phil.

0:25:27 > 0:25:33The House of Silk, published in 2011, is a Sherlock Holmes novel by which author?

0:25:39 > 0:25:44- Right. The House of Silks? - The House of Silk.

0:25:46 > 0:25:51I don't think it's the sort of thing that Nick Hornby would be involved in.

0:25:54 > 0:25:58I would think it's maybe more up Sebastian Faulks' street.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01I'll go for Sebastian Faulks.

0:26:01 > 0:26:06- Eggheads?- Anthony Horowitz. - Anthony Horowitz is the answer.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08He was given the right

0:26:08 > 0:26:12to rewrite a story? Or can you just do it without copyright?

0:26:12 > 0:26:18- Sherlock Holmes, they've got some sort of rights over it. - So you have to ask?- Yes.

0:26:18 > 0:26:23- But he would have been authorised. - Yes.- Eggheads, your question.

0:26:23 > 0:26:28Who wrote the opera The Mastersingers of Nuremberg, first performed in 1868?

0:26:32 > 0:26:34- Wagner.- Yeah.

0:26:34 > 0:26:38That's one of the operas by Richard Wagner.

0:26:38 > 0:26:42You all said it at the same instant. It was frightening.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44We could all hum some of it!

0:26:44 > 0:26:48Richard Wagner is right, so they've gone ahead, Philip.

0:26:48 > 0:26:53You need to get this one right. Get this wrong and there's no way back.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57During the majority of World War Two,

0:26:57 > 0:27:01Czechoslovakia's government in exile was based in which city?

0:27:04 > 0:27:06I would have thought...

0:27:06 > 0:27:11Czechoslovakia? I can't think it would be Canberra.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13Australia's too far away.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15Ottawa, Canada?

0:27:17 > 0:27:23I don't know the answer, but I would suspect it would be London.

0:27:23 > 0:27:25And London is the answer.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28If you get this right, Eggheads,

0:27:28 > 0:27:34you've taken it. Who would be most likely to employ a technique known as millefiori in their daily work?

0:27:38 > 0:27:41- A glassmaker?- Yeah.

0:27:41 > 0:27:46Are millefiori those things when they do paperweights with flowers?

0:27:46 > 0:27:50I've seen millefiori decorated objects.

0:27:50 > 0:27:54They tend to have tiny little flowers, hundreds, thousands,

0:27:54 > 0:27:56in paperweights, so a glassmaker.

0:27:56 > 0:27:59Glassmaker is the right answer.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02You've got three out of three.

0:28:02 > 0:28:07Phil, you didn't. Congratulations, Eggheads. You have won.

0:28:12 > 0:28:16If you get one wrong in the final, it can really cost a lot.

0:28:16 > 0:28:20I'm just wondering if I'll get strung up now.

0:28:20 > 0:28:23They've got nothing to complain about.

0:28:23 > 0:28:28The Eggheads have done what comes naturally and they reign supreme.

0:28:28 > 0:28:34The Worm Charmers won't be going home with the £1,000, so it rolls over to the 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 can defeat them. £2,000 says they don't.

0:28:43 > 0:28:45Until then, goodbye.
