0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 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 > 0:00:20The 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 > 0:00:31They are the Eggheads!
0:00:31 > 0:00:35And taking on our general knowledge geniuses today
0:00:35 > 0:00:36are Family Affair.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39As their name suggests, this quiz-loving team are all related,
0:00:39 > 0:00:42and when the whole clan comes together at Christmas,
0:00:42 > 0:00:46team captain Gordon is on hand to set them a quiz.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Let's meet them.
0:00:47 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Gordon, I'm 63 years of age and I'm a retired company director.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55Hello, I'm John, I'm 60 years of age and I'm an accountant.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hi, I'm Katy, I'm 29 and I'm an associate director.
0:00:58 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Linda, I'm 59 and I'm a customer service assistant.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Hi, I'm Lucy, I'm 30 and I'm a commissioning editor.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11- Gordon and team, welcome.- Thank you very much.- Good to see you. So just the relationships...?
0:01:11 > 0:01:17- Gordon and John are brothers.- Yes. - John is my younger brother.- Right. - And then my daughter Katy.- Katy.
0:01:17 > 0:01:22- My sister-in-law Linda. - Linda is married to John? - No, Linda is married to my wife...
0:01:22 > 0:01:25is the sister of my wife!
0:01:25 > 0:01:29- My wife's called Linda as well. - Oh, I see!- I do that every time.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33- And then, Lucy, you're involved...? - This is my mum. - OK, so you have met before today,
0:01:33 > 0:01:37you are definitely a family. And you set the questions, Gordon, when it comes to Christmas...?
0:01:37 > 0:01:41Well, I download them off the web. I like taking part in quizzes as well,
0:01:41 > 0:01:44so I don't look at the answers and we split into two teams,
0:01:44 > 0:01:50- and my brother and I are very competitive and we try and beat each other every time.- Excellent.
0:01:50 > 0:01:56- And do you watch Eggheads?- I watch them every night. I'm retired, so I enjoy it, it's like a second home!
0:01:56 > 0:01:59We get quite a few teams in here who do watch every single one.
0:01:59 > 0:02:06And they can sometimes remember better than we can, you know, rounds and questions and all that.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Do you find as you watch the programme you get better knowledge or...?
0:02:09 > 0:02:14Very much so, but it's luck on the day. The questions are always easy if you know the answers!
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Or in my case remember the answers!
0:02:17 > 0:02:22Well, they know a lot of answers, this lot over here, so we'll see how you do. Good luck! Good luck!
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs.
0:02:25 > 0:02:30However, if the challengers fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33So, Family Affair, the Eggheads have won the last five games,
0:02:33 > 0:02:38which means that £6,000 says you can't beat them today. Shall we try?
0:02:38 > 0:02:40- We'll do our best.- Good luck.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Geography.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45- Who would like this?- Geography?
0:02:45 > 0:02:48- Didn't you say you would do Geography? - Linda, did you want to do that?
0:02:48 > 0:02:51- Oh, first!- You've got to go first! I'm not going first!
0:02:54 > 0:02:57- You did say you wanted to do Geography.- I'll do Geography, yeah.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Linda, OK. Against which Egghead? Who looks lost?
0:03:00 > 0:03:06- Who looks ungeographical? - I think they're all very good. - Dave is a total unknown to us.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Shall we go with Dave?
0:03:08 > 0:03:11- Take on Dave, the new one. - Take on Dave.- Dave, yeah.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15So Linda from Family Affair versus Tremendous Knowledge Dave, as we call him, from the Eggheads.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19If you'd like to take your positions in the Question Room, we'll get cracking!
0:03:20 > 0:03:25- Linda, you like to quiz? - Yes, yes, we do.- In pubs?
0:03:25 > 0:03:30- It has been known to quiz in a pub, yes.- It's all right, you don't have to deny it.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Most people do who come through this studio.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35And do you have particular subjects you like?
0:03:35 > 0:03:43Well, I know lots about... not lots about everything, but I know broad general knowledge,
0:03:43 > 0:03:47- rather than any specialist subject. - OK, good luck in Geography.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50You're up against Tremendous Knowledge Dave. Three multiple-choice questions.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54- You can choose the first or second set, Linda. - I'll definitely go first.
0:03:57 > 0:03:58Here we go. Good luck.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Ipswich is a town in which English county?
0:04:03 > 0:04:08I know this one. Well, I hope I know it. It's in Suffolk.
0:04:08 > 0:04:12Well done. You're quite right. Suffolk is correct.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Tremendous Knowledge Dave,
0:04:16 > 0:04:20Gibraltar is situated off which of Spain's coasts?
0:04:25 > 0:04:27I'll go south, but, er...
0:04:27 > 0:04:30Yeah, south, I think.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32Yeah, south!
0:04:32 > 0:04:36It's just sometimes with geography questions,
0:04:36 > 0:04:38I can't get maps in my head.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42So sometimes you think something's too obvious...
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Is that, what do you call it? Navigational blindness or whatever?
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Do you have that when driving
0:04:47 > 0:04:49- and you don't know if it's left or right?- Yeah, that kind of thing.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51- I have that.- I don't drive so maybe that's the problem.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- Well, that would be, yeah.- Yeah.
0:04:56 > 0:05:01Linda, in terms of population, what is the largest city in the US state of Nevada?
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Well, I would say...
0:05:08 > 0:05:11it's either Las Vegas or Reno, so...
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Go for the obvious, Las Vegas.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18Las Vegas is the right answer. Well done. Well done.
0:05:18 > 0:05:19So they're ahead.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Let's see what you can do here, Dave.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25The Louvre Museum, Tuileries Gardens and the Palais-Royal
0:05:25 > 0:05:30are all located in which of Paris's arrondissements?
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Er...I've got no idea.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36I'll go 5th.
0:05:36 > 0:05:41No, 1st is the answer. So you're ahead, Linda. You can knock Dave out
0:05:41 > 0:05:43if you get this right. Here we go.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47Where is the popular tourist area, Tsim Sha Tsui located?
0:05:50 > 0:05:55And I'll spell it for you - Tsim is T-S-I-M, Sha is S-H-A
0:05:55 > 0:05:57and Tsui is T-S-U-I.
0:05:58 > 0:06:05I've...I don't know. I've not been to Singapore, Hong Kong or Thailand.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12And it sounds like it could be in any of them.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14I'm going to say...
0:06:16 > 0:06:17..Hong Kong.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21Let's see if your team... Do you think she's right with Hong Kong?
0:06:21 > 0:06:22- We're not sure. - We're not really sure.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Any of you guys know?
0:06:25 > 0:06:26- Yeah, Hong Kong. - Yeah, Hong Kong is right!
0:06:26 > 0:06:29- Well done!- Well done, Linda.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Linda, you've knocked an Egghead out. Sorry, Dave.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36That means, Linda, you will be in the final round. It's a good start for your team.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Fantastic quizzing! Come back here and rejoin us and we will play on.
0:06:41 > 0:06:47- So a good start for the challengers. - Absolutely! Very pleased.- So pleased.- The strategy is in place!
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Well done, Linda. Let's see where it goes from here.
0:06:49 > 0:06:55You've lost no brains. The Eggheads have lost a brain. And we play on. Your subject now is Science.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- Who would like this? - Want to go again, Linda?(!)
0:06:59 > 0:07:04- Up to you girls or guys. - I don't know.- I'm not very good with Science.- John?
0:07:04 > 0:07:10- Don't fancy it.- You don't fancy Science?- Well, one of us has got to do it, so...- Lucy?
0:07:10 > 0:07:14- I'll do it.- You sure?- Yeah. - You're definitely sure?- Yeah.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18- Well, it's not my best... - No, no, but...that's the way it's going to be.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22Lucy, OK, on Science. And which Egghead? Can't be Dave.
0:07:22 > 0:07:27- I'll try Daphne, I think.- Oh!- No? - They're all clever!
0:07:27 > 0:07:31- OK...I don't know...- Daphne?- Go on!
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- Daphne?- Maybe Daphne. - Go with Daphne.
0:07:34 > 0:07:39All right, so Lucy from Family Affair versus our Daphne from the Eggheads on Science.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42And just to ensure there's no conferring, please, take your positions.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49OK, good luck in this round. Three questions and Lucy, would you like the first or second set?
0:07:49 > 0:07:52I think I'm going to go first, please.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58Here's your first question. What is the chemical symbol for cadmium?
0:08:02 > 0:08:06What is the chemical symbol for cadmium, Lucy?
0:08:07 > 0:08:12Well, I think Ca is calcium...
0:08:13 > 0:08:16But I'm not sure about the other two.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Cadmium?
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Cadmium has a D.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22I think I'm going to go for Cd.
0:08:24 > 0:08:25Cd is correct.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27Hooray!
0:08:27 > 0:08:32Our periodic table is a constant source of trouble for us, isn't it?
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- Chris, you any good on this? - Yeah, well...- Ca is...?
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Ca is calcium, C's carbon, Cd's cadmium.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40OK, any other Cs we should know?
0:08:40 > 0:08:41Cu is copper.
0:08:41 > 0:08:47- Cf, californium.- Californium, yeah. - Cf, californium.- Cs, caesium.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49- Cs, yes, it's caesium.- Yeah.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53They know a lot about the periodic table. It does come up a lot.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Well done, Lucy. Daphne, your question.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Emesis is the technical name for what?
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Could you spell it, slowly?
0:09:05 > 0:09:09- E...- Yes.- M...- Mm-hm.- E...
0:09:09 > 0:09:11S-I-S.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Emesis.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18Yes, sorry, I couldn't hear the M.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20So I assume it's vomiting,
0:09:20 > 0:09:23like an emetic.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25You've got it right. Vomiting is the answer.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27OK, Lucy...
0:09:27 > 0:09:32The bonobo or pygmy chimpanzee is native to which continent?
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Ooh...
0:09:37 > 0:09:42I think I've got a few friends who are going to be shouting this...
0:09:42 > 0:09:44at me if I get it wrong.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Ooh...
0:09:51 > 0:09:57I haven't really spent much time in any of these places...
0:09:57 > 0:09:58Asia, Africa...
0:09:58 > 0:10:02I think it's going to be a complete guess...
0:10:02 > 0:10:03bonobo...?
0:10:03 > 0:10:07But something is telling me, I don't know what it is,
0:10:07 > 0:10:09but Africa...
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Africa is correct.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Well done!
0:10:13 > 0:10:16They're playing well, they're playing well! OK, Daphne...
0:10:16 > 0:10:22what name is given to the space between the bones of the skull in an infant
0:10:22 > 0:10:27where ossification is not complete and the sutures not fully formed?
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Oh, that's fontanelle.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Fontanelle is quite right. Well done.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40OK, Lucy, your question, third one for you. Here we go.
0:10:40 > 0:10:45The British scientist Sir Martin Evans was awarded the 2007 Nobel Prize for Medicine
0:10:45 > 0:10:47for his work on what?
0:10:50 > 0:10:51Ooh...
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Really not sure about this.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00Could you repeat the question, please?
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Sure. The British scientist Sir Martin Evans
0:11:02 > 0:11:07was awarded the 2007 Nobel Prize for Medicine for his work on what?
0:11:10 > 0:11:16Well, I really know nothing about this particular subject,
0:11:16 > 0:11:20but 2007...wasn't too long ago,
0:11:20 > 0:11:26so I'm swinging between growth hormones and stem cells.
0:11:26 > 0:11:31I'm going to go with growth hormones.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34- No, it is stem cells.- Oh!
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Two out of three. Let's see if Daphne can take the round.
0:11:37 > 0:11:41What type of creatures belong to the Ranidae family?
0:11:45 > 0:11:50What type of creatures, Daphne, belong to the Ranidae family?
0:11:51 > 0:11:53They're frogs.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57- You're sure about that?- Yes. - How do you know that?
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- Er...- Somebody told you? - I've read it somewhere.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03- Whenever I ask you that, you say that.- Yes.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Well, you got it right. It is frogs, so, Lucy, sorry...
0:12:06 > 0:12:10she's knocked you out, but good quizzing there. Daphne, you will be in the final.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18So as it stands the challengers have lost a brain now. The Eggheads have also lost a brain
0:12:18 > 0:12:22from the all-important final round. And the next subject for you is Film & Television.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25How about this one?
0:12:25 > 0:12:27- You, Katy, I'm afraid. - Go on, Katy.- OK.
0:12:27 > 0:12:32Katy? OK, which Egghead, Kevin or Judith or Chris?
0:12:32 > 0:12:38- Er...- Chris? - Chris is good on... Chris is good. - Yeah, Chris is good.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- Go with Judith, then.- Judith.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Judith, please.
0:12:42 > 0:12:47- Judith, you're smiling.- I'm smiling, yes, in the face of adversity!
0:12:48 > 0:12:51- This is a good one for you, isn't it?- Well, sometimes.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Sometimes not.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56All right. Let's see if it's a sometimes or a sometimes not.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Katy versus Judith. Please, go to the question room now.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04So I'm going to ask each of you three questions on Film & Television in turn,
0:13:04 > 0:13:06and, Katy, would you like the first or second set of questions?
0:13:06 > 0:13:09I think I'd like the first, please.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Here we go. Good luck.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17The 1984 film Gremlins is set at what time of the year?
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Oh, I haven't seen this film.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27I think I'm going to go with Christmas.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30- Bang on! Well done!- Well done, Katy!
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Not an easy question that, actually, if you haven't seen it.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35I've seen it and I wouldn't know.
0:13:36 > 0:13:41Judith, Suranne Jones played Karen McDonald in which TV soap?
0:13:43 > 0:13:45Can you say all that again?
0:13:45 > 0:13:49Suranne Jones - spelt S-U-R-A-N-N-E -
0:13:49 > 0:13:52played Karen McDonald in which TV soap?
0:13:52 > 0:13:54Well, I'm sure that's not EastEnders.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56So I'll have to guess at one of the others
0:13:56 > 0:13:59because I don't watch either of the others,
0:13:59 > 0:14:01but I do watch EastEnders.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03Suranne... I think Hollyoaks.
0:14:06 > 0:14:07I think Dave will know the answer to this.
0:14:07 > 0:14:12It's Corrie, Coronation Street, Steve McDonald's ex-wife.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15And you love EastEnders, Judith, so you were able to rule that one out,
0:14:15 > 0:14:18- but you don't watch Corrie. - Well, I can't watch them all.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21I mean, I'd never get off the telly, would I?
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Coronation Street is the answer. Katy, you're in the lead
0:14:24 > 0:14:27after one question. This is good news. Your second question.
0:14:27 > 0:14:33Which British actor plays the role of Nicholas Brody in the US TV series Homeland?
0:14:37 > 0:14:39My dad's going to kill me for this one
0:14:39 > 0:14:41cos he's been watching it and I haven't!
0:14:42 > 0:14:47Er... I think... For some reason, I'm going towards Damian Lewis.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49So I'd like to go with that, please.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Damian Lewis is correct.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58OK, your question, Judith.
0:14:58 > 0:14:59See if you can get one right.
0:14:59 > 0:15:05What is the profession of Jamie Foxx's character in the 2004 film Collateral?
0:15:08 > 0:15:09Oh, dear!
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Oh, dear!
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Jamie Foxx...
0:15:14 > 0:15:16..in Collateral.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23I don't know, I don't know... God!
0:15:23 > 0:15:26- A doctor.- Nyah.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29- Instead of saying no, I kind of made a noise, nyah!- You did.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31The answer is cab driver.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34Judith, it's 2-0.
0:15:34 > 0:15:35I can see that(!)
0:15:35 > 0:15:38You've been knocked out. Katy, well done. You're in the final round.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41- Good for your team!- What a team!
0:15:41 > 0:15:43And if you come back to us we shall play on.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47- Good work, Katy.- Thanks.
0:15:47 > 0:15:51- You knocked out the Egghead. - Not difficult in this case. - No, it was a tough round.
0:15:51 > 0:15:55- No, I should have known about the McDonalds. - What, in Coronation Street?
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Katy knew all about the McDonalds in Coronation Street.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02You didn't get a question wrong. Good for your team. Are you feeling a bit confident now, Gordon?
0:16:02 > 0:16:06We're never confident. We'll do our best. That's all we can do.
0:16:06 > 0:16:10OK, so as it stands, the challengers have lost one brain, the Eggheads have lost two brains
0:16:10 > 0:16:15- from the final round. And the last subject before the final is Music. - Oh!
0:16:15 > 0:16:16Who is the muso?
0:16:16 > 0:16:21- Afraid it's me.- OK. Gordon against which Egghead? It can be Kevin or Chris.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Er... Ooh...
0:16:23 > 0:16:25What do you think?
0:16:25 > 0:16:27I think I'll go against Chris, if I may, please.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31OK, so it's Gordon from Family Affair versus Chris on Music.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35- Music today, Chris, obviously not rap.- Well...- Ballet, you like?
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Opera, ballet, classical stuff...
0:16:38 > 0:16:41'50s, '60s, not so much '70s, '80s, '90s cos that's all rubbish!
0:16:41 > 0:16:44- The stuff I grew up with, yeah.- OK.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47So, Gordon against Chris, and please go to the question rooms now.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52- Gordon, you're retired now, I gather?- I am, I retired about four years ago.
0:16:52 > 0:16:57- And pursuing your passions?- I'm still looking at odd things, yes.
0:16:57 > 0:17:02- Go on, what is it? Supercars, I gather?- Supercars is one of them. I belong to a car club.
0:17:02 > 0:17:08And occasionally if the sun is out I shall go and get a nice drophead and go off around the country roads
0:17:08 > 0:17:13- near Woking where I live.- That's lovely. So you can get a car out for the weekend or something?
0:17:13 > 0:17:19Absolutely, yes. A whole range of absolute supercars, Porsches, Ferraris, Lamborghinis...
0:17:19 > 0:17:23- wonderful.- Marvellous. What do they feel like when you get in one of those monsters?
0:17:23 > 0:17:28Absolutely wonderful! I've always loved supercars, never been able to afford to buy one,
0:17:28 > 0:17:31and I don't think I'd want to buy one even if I could.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33It's just great fun to hire for a weekend.
0:17:33 > 0:17:34Anyway, good luck in this round.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37I'll ask each of you three questions on Music in turn
0:17:37 > 0:17:39and, Gordon, you can choose the first or second set.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48Here we go. Which duo performed the comic song The Gnu
0:17:48 > 0:17:53in which the animal describes itself as "the g-nicest work of g-nature in the zoo"?
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Well, it's from my era.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Certainly before Chas and Dave.
0:18:04 > 0:18:05Not Hinge and Bracket.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07I'd have to go for Flanders and Swann.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10Flanders and Swann is the right answer.
0:18:12 > 0:18:13Do you know this song, Chris?
0:18:13 > 0:18:14# I'm a gnu
0:18:14 > 0:18:16# A g-nother gnu... # Yeah!
0:18:16 > 0:18:19- Go on, do us a bit more. - That's all I know of that one.
0:18:19 > 0:18:25OK. Here's your question. How many songs are there on the Beatles album Let It Be?
0:18:28 > 0:18:32It's double-sided vinyl with six each side so it's 12.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Well done. You're spot-on. 12 is the right answer.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36I actually have it indoors.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40Yes, I have it indoors. It's got Maggie Mae on it...
0:18:40 > 0:18:43- One After 909. - Dig My Pony, is it called?
0:18:43 > 0:18:45- Long And Winding Road...- Yeah.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48- Across The Universe.- Yes.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50OK, your question, Gordon.
0:18:50 > 0:18:54"You light the skies up above me, a star so bright you blind me",
0:18:54 > 0:18:58are the opening lyrics to which Take That song?
0:19:03 > 0:19:06That's one of the newer songs. I hear it on the radio all the time.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10So I'll rule out Back For Good straightaway.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13And I know it's not Patience, so it must be Rule The World.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17Very good! It would have been easy to trip up on this one.
0:19:17 > 0:19:18Rule The World is right!
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Playing well, is Gordon.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24- Come on, Dad!- His team could do it here. OK, Chris, your question.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28Which American country singer topped the 2012 Billboard Money Makers List
0:19:28 > 0:19:31after earning 35.7 million?
0:19:35 > 0:19:36Whoa!
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Garth Brooks is the biggest earner of all time...
0:19:44 > 0:19:46I'll have to go down the middle, Taylor Swift.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Yeah, you've got it, actually. Taylor Swift is right.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53- Is she the one where there was that fuss with Kanye West?- Yes.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56- She was given an award for a video...- And he got up...
0:19:56 > 0:19:58And he got up and said, "My video's better!" or somebody else's video...
0:19:58 > 0:20:02- Yeah.- OK. Chris on 2
0:20:02 > 0:20:05and Gordon on 2. Third question.
0:20:05 > 0:20:09The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra is based in which city?
0:20:12 > 0:20:20It's one word this, Gordon. It's spelt concert and G-E-B-O-U-W.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22OK?
0:20:22 > 0:20:24Mmm... Er...
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Well...
0:20:32 > 0:20:36I think I'm going to rule out Berlin
0:20:36 > 0:20:39which leaves me Brussels and Amsterdam.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Could you just repeat the spelling again, Jeremy, please?
0:20:42 > 0:20:48Yeah. C-O-N-C-E-R-T-G-E-B-O-U-W.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50O-U-W...?
0:20:50 > 0:20:54I think I'm going to go for Amsterdam, then, from Holland.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58- What leads you there? - The spelling a little bit
0:20:58 > 0:21:01and the rest is just guesswork!
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- You've got it right.- Fantastic!
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Three out of three. Amsterdam is right. Couldn't ask for more.
0:21:06 > 0:21:11OK, Chris, to stay in the round. The jazz musician Art Tatum,
0:21:11 > 0:21:15who was virtually blind, was best known for his expertise on which instrument?
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Art Tatum...?
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Art Tatum...?
0:21:31 > 0:21:35Not a trumpet player. And I don't think he was a pianist.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37I think he was a saxophonist. Saxophone.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42- Dave, do you know this one? - Well, Daphne...
0:21:42 > 0:21:46- tells me he's a pianist.- Pianist. - Pianist?- Yes.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49- Sorry, Chris.- Mm-hm? - He plays the piano.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52So you're going to be playing the piano in the sin bin
0:21:52 > 0:21:54during the final round. Gordon, well done.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56- You're through to the final. - Thank you.- Nice work.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Well, this leaves it rather interestingly poised.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04Please, both of you, come back to us and we will play that final round.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09So this is what we have been playing towards and it's time for the final round,
0:22:09 > 0:22:11which as always is General Knowledge,
0:22:11 > 0:22:15but I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:22:15 > 0:22:21So, Lucy from Family Affair, and Chris, Dave and Judith from the Eggheads,
0:22:21 > 0:22:23would you please now leave the studio?
0:22:24 > 0:22:30So, Gordon, John, Katy and Linda, you are playing to win Family Affair £6,000.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Daphne, and Kevin, you're playing for something that money can't buy...
0:22:33 > 0:22:35the Eggheads' reputation.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42This time, the questions are all General Knowledge. You are allowed to confer.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45So, Gordon, John, Katy and Linda,
0:22:45 > 0:22:50the question is, are your four brains capable of overwhelming the Eggheads' two?
0:22:50 > 0:22:56Now, Katy, I know you were involved in the record-breaking world's tallest pancake tower.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58- Yeah.- You made the pancakes for it, did you?
0:22:58 > 0:23:02Yeah, I worked with a number of colleagues to make 725 pancakes.
0:23:02 > 0:23:08- And that broke the record?- Yeah. - Let's see if you can knock over this leaning tower of Eggheads now!
0:23:08 > 0:23:12OK, to business. Would you like to go first or second?
0:23:12 > 0:23:15- Well, I think we've gone first all the time, haven't we?- Yeah.
0:23:15 > 0:23:20- So...- I'm happy with first. Happy? - Yes, we'll go first.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22- Yeah.- First it is, please, Jeremy.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28Good luck. Here we are in the final. £6,000 to play for.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33Which football club did Graham Taylor manage from 1987 to 1990
0:23:33 > 0:23:37and then again from 2002 to 2003?
0:23:42 > 0:23:46Well, he started at Lincoln City as a manager,
0:23:46 > 0:23:49then he went to Watford, then he went to Aston Villa.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Did he go back to Watford?
0:23:51 > 0:23:57- Is he...? I don't know.- I always relate Graham Taylor with Watford.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59So he had two spells there...
0:23:59 > 0:24:01I think that's it...
0:24:01 > 0:24:05Mmm... I think you're right. I think it was Watford.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Shall we go with Watford?
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Watford, yes?
0:24:09 > 0:24:13Well, Matt never mentions him about Aston Villa, so...
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Do you think Elton John got him back for another year?
0:24:15 > 0:24:18What about the years?
0:24:18 > 0:24:23When was he England...? That was '80s...? Early '80s?
0:24:24 > 0:24:26No, I definitely think it's Watford.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28- Yeah. I think we'll go for that.- OK.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Yes, we'll go for Watford, Jeremy.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33- Watford is wrong.- Oh!
0:24:33 > 0:24:34It's Aston Villa.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Oh, Matt's going to kill us.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39He must have done... Let's just work that out.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43He was manager when Watford got to the Cup final in '84
0:24:43 > 0:24:47and lost to Everton. He was the manager then at Watford.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49And then he moved on later to Aston Villa,
0:24:49 > 0:24:52- went back to Aston Villa. - I didn't know he went back.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54- Was he at Watford twice? - As far as I know, yeah...
0:24:54 > 0:24:57- He was at Aston Villa twice. - Yes, exactly.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00Sorry, guys, the answer is Aston Villa.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02OK, Eggheads, your first question.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06Who became the Secretary of State for Defence in October 2011?
0:25:09 > 0:25:11- Philip Hammond.- Philip Hammond.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Yep, that is Philip Hammond.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Philip Hammond is the right answer.
0:25:15 > 0:25:20OK, your question, Family Affair. Don't worry, you can still win.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24In March 2012 who became the first person to attract 20 million followers on Twitter?
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Justin Bieber.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32- I don't know. - I think it was Lady Gaga.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34No, I think it was Justin Bieber.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37Katy's going to know more than we know about celebrities.
0:25:37 > 0:25:43- If I get it wrong...- But I'm sure I read something about Lady Gaga
0:25:43 > 0:25:45having 20 million...
0:25:45 > 0:25:50I'd have thought Lady Gaga has a bigger following than Justin Bieber.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53- No...- I'm certain, I read this recently...
0:25:53 > 0:25:55- No.- I'm not a celebrity person,
0:25:55 > 0:25:58but I'm sure I remember seeing something about Lady Gaga...
0:25:58 > 0:26:00I'm positive it's Justin Bieber.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02- Positive?- Well... - That's good enough for me.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04If you're positive, then we'll go for it.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07- If you're positive, Katy...- No, because you're going to be cross.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- No, we're not. - No, I think it's Justin Bieber.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13Fine. Then, that's good enough for me.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16- OK. We're all in this together. - Oh, pressure!
0:26:16 > 0:26:18Last chance to change your mind.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21No, I'm sure it's Justin Bieber.
0:26:21 > 0:26:25OK, there we are. We will go with Justin Bieber.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27OK. Well, it is a Family Affair.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29Let me just ask these two.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32- Lady Gaga.- Yeah, it's Lady Gaga.
0:26:32 > 0:26:33Oh, no!
0:26:33 > 0:26:36- It is Lady Gaga!- I'm sorry!
0:26:36 > 0:26:39It's lucky you're all family. You can all forgive each other.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42- I was sure it was him.- I know why Katy said that, actually.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45Being on Twitter...there is a massive Justin Bieber thing.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47- I don't understand it.- Yeah.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Every other tweet seems to be about Justin Bieber.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52I don't understand it. But no, the answer was Lady Gaga.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54- Sorry.- It's all right, darling.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Here is your question, Eggheads.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00The writers Anthony Burgess, Leslie Charteris and William Golding
0:27:00 > 0:27:01died in which year?
0:27:01 > 0:27:03If you get this right, the contest is over.
0:27:07 > 0:27:08Yeah, 1993.
0:27:08 > 0:27:13- Yeah.- Cos Golding won the Nobel Prize for Literature in '83.- Yes.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15I knew that rang a bell.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18It rings bells with all of them. '93.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21- Yeah.- We think that's 1993.
0:27:21 > 0:27:241993 is the correct answer,
0:27:24 > 0:27:27- So we say congratulations, Eggheads! - Well done.- You have won!
0:27:32 > 0:27:35- You honestly played brilliantly.- I feel like I lost it!- No, you didn't.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38The first answer wrong is very costly as well.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40You know, often they get three right, so...
0:27:40 > 0:27:43My future son-in-law is an Aston Villa supporter... OK?
0:27:43 > 0:27:46- OK.- And he's marrying my daughter in two months' time
0:27:46 > 0:27:50- and I will never hear the end of this from Matt! - It's going to be awkward.
0:27:50 > 0:27:54But, listen, great to see you. Clearly prime quizzers, so thank you very much indeed
0:27:54 > 0:27:56for giving them a run for their money.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them,
0:27:58 > 0:28:00and they still reign supreme over quiz land.
0:28:00 > 0:28:05It means you won't be going home with the £6,000 so the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07Eggheads, well done!
0:28:07 > 0:28:10Who will beat you? Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:10 > 0:28:14have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. £7,000 says they don't.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Until then, goodbye.
