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.

0:00:16 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz Challengers

0:00:27 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:30 > 0:00:33They are the Eggheads.

0:00:33 > 0:00:36And challenging our resident quiz champions today,

0:00:36 > 0:00:37are the...

0:00:37 > 0:00:40Now, this friends and family team

0:00:40 > 0:00:43all live in and around Airdrie in North Lanarkshire

0:00:43 > 0:00:45and take their team name from the distinctive strip

0:00:45 > 0:00:48worn by their local football team, Airdrie Utd.

0:00:48 > 0:00:49Let's meet them.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52Hi. I'm Tommy, I'm 35, and I'm a resource planner.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55Hi. I'm Darren. I'm 33, and I'm a police officer.

0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi. I'm Billy. I'm 34 years old and I'm a UK sales manager.

0:00:59 > 0:01:03Hi. I'm Paul, I'm 38 and I'm a resource planner.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Hi. I'm Michael. I'm 38, and I'm a call centre team manager.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09- Tommy and team, welcome. - How are you doing?- Great to see you.

0:01:09 > 0:01:13- So Airdrie Utd have a diamond on their strip, do they?- They do, yes.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15And you support them, all of you? Or most of you?

0:01:15 > 0:01:17- Mmm, no.- Just you?

0:01:17 > 0:01:20No. None of us support them. We're just from the area.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23- Right.- And we have a soft spot for them because we are from that area.

0:01:23 > 0:01:28- Oh, right.- But we support another couple of teams in Scotland.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30OK. Good luck, good luck. Let's see how you do.

0:01:30 > 0:01:33Every day there is £1,000 in cash up for grabs for our Challengers.

0:01:33 > 0:01:36However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money

0:01:36 > 0:01:38rolls over to the next show.

0:01:38 > 0:01:42So, Diamond Geezers, the Eggheads have won the last ten games,

0:01:42 > 0:01:45which means £11,000 says you can't beat them today.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51Who would like this?

0:01:51 > 0:01:53I think it's Paul's, isn't it? Paul's.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57- That's your subject.- This is you. - This is your thing.

0:01:57 > 0:01:58OK. I'll take that.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Paul? OK, against which Egghead, Paul?

0:02:00 > 0:02:04- You can choose any of them. - It's up to yourself.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06Aye. Barry?

0:02:06 > 0:02:08- Can I take Barry, please, Jeremy? - You certainly can.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12- Barry, you like your music. - I'm liking it more now that I'm winning them.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Ah. There we are. Don't be put off by that.

0:02:14 > 0:02:15Don't be put off by that.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17Paul from the Diamond Geezers

0:02:17 > 0:02:19versus Barry from the Eggheads.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27I'll ask you three multiple-choice questions on Music in turn.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30Whoever answers the most questions correctly is the winner.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Paul, you can choose. Do you want to go first or second?

0:02:33 > 0:02:35I'll go first, Jeremy, please.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Here we go. Good luck.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Which American singer's UK hit singles

0:02:41 > 0:02:45have included All I Wanna Do and Every Day Is A Winding Road?

0:02:45 > 0:02:46Is it...

0:02:49 > 0:02:52It's a few years ago now, I think, those songs.

0:02:52 > 0:02:56Erm. It's not Shania Twain.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00And not LeAnn Rimes. But I'm going to go for Sheryl Crow.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Sheryl Crow's the right answer. Well done.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06Here's your question, Barry. In a 2004 poll,

0:03:06 > 0:03:09which singer was voted the nation's favourite ambassador

0:03:09 > 0:03:12to welcome aliens to Earth...

0:03:12 > 0:03:13BARRY LAUGHS

0:03:13 > 0:03:15..should they visit?

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Oh, that's a question-and-a-half.

0:03:22 > 0:03:26Well, I could go for the one who looks most like an alien there,

0:03:26 > 0:03:28which is probably Ozzy Osbourne.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32Or somebody who's got perhaps a gentler approach,

0:03:32 > 0:03:34which could be Des O'Connor.

0:03:34 > 0:03:38I'm going to take my heart in my hands and plump for Ozzy Osbourne.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Ozzy Osbourne is the right answer.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44I don't know who conducted the poll, but it's a great question.

0:03:44 > 0:03:45OK, Paul.

0:03:45 > 0:03:51Who wrote the lyrics for the songs Ten Cents A Dance and Falling In Love With Love?

0:03:57 > 0:04:00I'm not familiar with either of those songs.

0:04:00 > 0:04:04Something's telling me Stephen Sondheim for some reason.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07It's the first name that really jumped out there out of those three.

0:04:07 > 0:04:09So I'm going to go for Stephen Sondheim.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11He's the most famous of them.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13But it's not. It's Lorenz Hart.

0:04:14 > 0:04:20Barry, the Taubman Approach, named after its creator, Dorothy Taubman,

0:04:20 > 0:04:23is a method of learning to play which instrument? Is it...

0:04:26 > 0:04:29I'll discount trumpet immediately.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32I don't think you need an approach to learn how to play the trumpet.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35I'm not sure. I think the only approach I know,

0:04:35 > 0:04:37teaching method that I know for the violin,

0:04:37 > 0:04:39is the Suzuki method.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42So, on that basis, I think I'll go for the piano.

0:04:42 > 0:04:43Piano is the right answer.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46OK, Paul.

0:04:46 > 0:04:47Good luck. You need this one right,

0:04:47 > 0:04:49otherwise you've been knocked out.

0:04:49 > 0:04:54Which record label was set up by Dave Robinson and Jake Riviera in 1976

0:04:54 > 0:05:00and had chart success with acts such as Madness, Elvis Costello and Ian Dury? Is it..

0:05:05 > 0:05:06Hmm.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Erm...I'm going to go with Stiff.

0:05:09 > 0:05:14Stiff rings a bell. Kinda punk, along those similar sorts of lines.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16So I'm going to go for Stiff.

0:05:16 > 0:05:17Yep. Spot on.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Well done.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22Very, very good. A very exciting record label it was, too.

0:05:22 > 0:05:23Stiff is correct.

0:05:23 > 0:05:28Barry, which member of the Beatles was temporarily replaced by Jimmy Nicol

0:05:28 > 0:05:31on a 1964 tour

0:05:31 > 0:05:34when illness forced him to stay in hospital? Is it...

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Ooh, goodness. That's going back some.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43I don't remember this as well.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46So I'm going to have to have a think about this.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Something at the back of my mind is saying George Harrison,

0:05:49 > 0:05:52but it's a very slight something.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54I've nothing else to go on, so I'll go for George Harrison.

0:05:54 > 0:05:58No, actually. Ringo Starr is the answer, Barry.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01So it's 2-all after three questions.

0:06:01 > 0:06:05We go to sudden death. Paul, bit more difficult for you. I don't give you alternatives.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07From 2001 to 2003,

0:06:07 > 0:06:13who won three consecutive Brit Awards for best British male solo artist?

0:06:15 > 0:06:18I think, at that time, Robbie Williams was quite popular.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20He was in the charts quite often.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22So I'm going to go for Robbie Williams.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24Robbie Williams is quite right.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27The stakes are high now, Barry.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30In January 1965,

0:06:30 > 0:06:33the Righteous Brothers single You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'

0:06:33 > 0:06:37was joined in the UK charts by a rival version

0:06:37 > 0:06:40sung by which female singer?

0:06:40 > 0:06:43Ooh. I could have managed the Righteous Brothers.

0:06:43 > 0:06:47I think that might've been Cilla Black.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Cilla Black is the right answer.

0:06:49 > 0:06:53OK. Level on sudden death, but death can be very sudden.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56Which song was a UK hit single in 1977

0:06:56 > 0:07:00for both Thelma Houston and Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes?

0:07:00 > 0:07:02Paul?

0:07:04 > 0:07:05Oh.

0:07:07 > 0:07:12Something's trying to get out with that band.

0:07:12 > 0:07:15And I can't think.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17It's a complete guess.

0:07:17 > 0:07:20I was going to say Dancing In The Streets,

0:07:20 > 0:07:24but...erm...I'll go for that, but I'm pretty sure it's not right.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27- No, it's not that. It's Don't Leave Me This Way.- Agh.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30OK, Barry, if you get this one right, you're in the final round.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33Au Fond Du Temple Saint

0:07:33 > 0:07:36is a notable duet from which opera by Bizet?

0:07:36 > 0:07:41Ah, yes. # Au fond du temple saint... #

0:07:41 > 0:07:43It's from The Pearl Fishers.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Pearl Fishers is quite right. Well done for singing it as well.

0:07:46 > 0:07:50Some of the words may have been mispronounced, but we don't know which ones.

0:07:50 > 0:07:51Barry, you've taken the round.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53Music has gone your way.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56Paul, sorry, you've been knocked out.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59Both of you, come back here. Rejoin your teams.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03So, as it stands, the Challengers have lost one brain from the final round.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06The Eggheads are still intact. The shells are in place.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08The next subject is Science.

0:08:08 > 0:08:09Who would like Science?

0:08:09 > 0:08:12- That's pretty simple. We have a scientist on our team, so...- Do we?

0:08:12 > 0:08:14- Yeah.- You hope. We hope.

0:08:14 > 0:08:16- It's Billy, is it?- Yep.- OK.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19Billy, and which Egghead? Can't be Barry.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Judith.- Aye. Aye.

0:08:21 > 0:08:22Judith, please, Jeremy.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24So Billy from Diamond Geezers

0:08:24 > 0:08:27versus Judith from the Eggheads, on Science.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29And please, if you can go to the Question Room.

0:08:30 > 0:08:35OK, three question on Science. Here we go. Billy, would you like the first or second set?

0:08:35 > 0:08:38I'll put the pressure on Judith and go second please, Jeremy.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Good luck. Hope it works for you. Judith, launched in 2011,

0:08:44 > 0:08:48NASA's Juno mission aimed to discover the origins of which planet?

0:08:52 > 0:08:58Well, Juno, in mythology, was married to Jupiter.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00So maybe Juno went after Jupiter.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- Jupiter.- Jupiter.

0:09:03 > 0:09:04You don't sound very certain.

0:09:04 > 0:09:08- No.- It is the right answer, Judith. Well done.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Billy,

0:09:10 > 0:09:16in 2012, which film director travelled to the bottom of the Mariana Trench

0:09:16 > 0:09:18in a deep-diving submersible? Was it...

0:09:23 > 0:09:24Hmm.

0:09:24 > 0:09:29I'm not sure. I'm going to have to take a guess, Jeremy.

0:09:29 > 0:09:33Let me think. The one that's looking straight at me is the middle one.

0:09:33 > 0:09:34James Cameron, please.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37James Cameron is quite right.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39Well done.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Judith, here's your question.

0:09:41 > 0:09:45The endangered species known as the Karpathos frog

0:09:45 > 0:09:48is endemic to which country?

0:09:50 > 0:09:52K-A-R-P-A-T-H-O-S.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54Well, it sounds Greek.

0:09:54 > 0:09:58I think, linguistically, it sounds Greek,

0:09:58 > 0:09:59so I'm going to say Greece.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02And Greece is absolutely right, Judith. Well done.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04OK, Billy, back to you.

0:10:04 > 0:10:08Ivory is the equivalent of which constituent of human teeth?

0:10:13 > 0:10:18Trying to work out... I don't think it's cementum.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21I think it's...

0:10:21 > 0:10:24Again, it's going to have to be a guess,

0:10:24 > 0:10:28but first thoughts were pulp.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30So I'm going to go with pulp.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32Dentine is the answer, Billy.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Dentine.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36Judith, here's your question.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38In 1987 and 1988,

0:10:38 > 0:10:44which US state was affected by the so-called Syringe Tide Incident

0:10:44 > 0:10:49in which significant amounts of medical waste were washed onto the shore?

0:10:52 > 0:10:55Ah.

0:10:55 > 0:10:59Well, which has got a good, strong current?

0:10:59 > 0:11:03It could be any of those.

0:11:03 > 0:11:07I don't know. I'm going to sort of go for the Pacific, as it were.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Well, am I?

0:11:09 > 0:11:12There'd be more complaints in Florida, wouldn't there?

0:11:12 > 0:11:14I think I'm going to say Florida.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17No, it's right side of the States, but it's New Jersey.

0:11:17 > 0:11:18Oh, what a pity.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21So you've got a chance to pull level now,

0:11:21 > 0:11:23Billy, but if you get this wrong, you will be out.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26What type of bird was the prehistoric kairuku,

0:11:26 > 0:11:29remains of which have been found in New Zealand? Is it...

0:11:34 > 0:11:36I would say it was definitely not emu.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39I don't think it would be crane,

0:11:39 > 0:11:42and I think, based on the fact that New Zealand's near the pole,

0:11:42 > 0:11:44I would go for penguin, so penguin is my answer.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Penguin is the right answer, Billy. Well done.

0:11:47 > 0:11:51You've drawn level with Judith. We go to sudden death, Judith.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Bit harder cos I don't give you alternatives.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57In the computing abbreviation VDU,

0:11:57 > 0:11:59for what does the letter D stand?

0:11:59 > 0:12:02Visual display unit.

0:12:02 > 0:12:05- So display. - Display is correct. Well done.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07On to you, Billy.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10The name of the element rubidium is derived

0:12:10 > 0:12:12from the Latin word for what colour?

0:12:14 > 0:12:19For some reason orange and copper bizarrely spring into mind,

0:12:19 > 0:12:22so... Um...I'm not 100% sure, of course, but

0:12:22 > 0:12:25I'd like to say orange, Jeremy.

0:12:25 > 0:12:30No. It's...sort of ruby I think is the derivation here.

0:12:30 > 0:12:35So "rubidus" is the word and the translation's "red".

0:12:35 > 0:12:38- OK.- It's red. And that means you've been knocked out.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40After a doughty display,

0:12:40 > 0:12:44Judith is the final on Science.

0:12:44 > 0:12:48Come back to us and we'll play the next round.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52So, as it stands, the Challengers have lost two brains now from the final round.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54The Eggheads have lost no brains so far.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56The next subject is Geography.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59Now, who is the travelled person here?

0:12:59 > 0:13:02- Well, Billy...- Billy?

0:13:02 > 0:13:05- Not two days in a row in the same country, so...- A travelling salesman?

0:13:05 > 0:13:07So you've got Michael, Darren or yourself?

0:13:07 > 0:13:08That'll be me, Jeremy.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11OK, Tommy. Against which Egghead? Can't be Judith or Barry.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Who do you think?

0:13:13 > 0:13:17- Tremendous Knowledge?- I'll try Tremendous Knowledge Dave.

0:13:17 > 0:13:18- Give it a go.- OK.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Tommy from Diamond Geezers

0:13:20 > 0:13:23versus Tremendous Knowledge Dave from the Eggheads, on Geography.

0:13:23 > 0:13:27To ensure there's no conferring, please go to the Question Room.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29So we're on Geography here.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Three questions. Multiple choice.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33Tommy, you can choose the first or second set.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35First, please.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41Good luck. The Egyptian holiday resort of Sharm el-Sheik

0:13:41 > 0:13:44is particularly popular for which activity? Is it...

0:13:48 > 0:13:50Right, OK.

0:13:50 > 0:13:52Well, it's definitely not skiing,

0:13:52 > 0:13:55because they don't have any snow.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59Erm, I would imagine there's not much mountaineering going on there

0:13:59 > 0:14:01and because it's on a beach,

0:14:01 > 0:14:03I would say diving.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Diving is the right answer. Well done.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10Dave, how many English counties lie on the border with Scotland?

0:14:14 > 0:14:17Well, I don't think it's 7.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19Don't think it's 5.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21Erm, let me have a think, here.

0:14:21 > 0:14:23Make sure...

0:14:23 > 0:14:26I think we're talking Cumbria and Northumberland.

0:14:26 > 0:14:27I think we're talking 2.

0:14:27 > 0:14:302 is quite right.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Well done. Tommy,

0:14:32 > 0:14:34Cabrera is a small island in which group?

0:14:41 > 0:14:44Right, I'd rule out the Orkneys straight away.

0:14:44 > 0:14:48And Cabrera sounds...

0:14:48 > 0:14:52Erm... I think it sounds sort of Spanish,

0:14:52 > 0:14:56so I'll have a kind of educated guess at Balearic Islands.

0:14:56 > 0:15:00Very good. Balearic is the right answer. Well done.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04You're in the lead. Let's see what Tremendous Knowledge Dave does.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06The Deccan Plateau

0:15:06 > 0:15:09is a large plateau in which country, Dave?

0:15:09 > 0:15:11Deccan is D-E-C-C-A-N.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16It's in India.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Very good. Straight there.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20- You been to it? - No. I'd like to go there.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23I'd love to go to India.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25Mrs Tremendous Knowledge Dave, you know,

0:15:25 > 0:15:27has got other places in mind.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30- Has she?- But me, certainly India.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33Bit of cricket tour and good trawl around on the trains.

0:15:33 > 0:15:34- I'd love to go.- Yup.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37India is the right answer. Well done. Tommy, your question.

0:15:37 > 0:15:42Gerlach Peak, the highest point in the Carpathians, is in which country?

0:15:46 > 0:15:49Carpathians. OK.

0:15:49 > 0:15:53All Baltic sort of area countries.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57Right. I don't know this one, Jeremy. Erm...

0:15:57 > 0:16:01Give myself a chance here, I hope, and guess Hungary.

0:16:01 > 0:16:05That is just a guess. I don't think it'll be Slovakia.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07I'll guess Hungary.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10- Dave, do you know? - I thought it was Slovakia.

0:16:10 > 0:16:12Yeah, Slovakia is the right answer.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14Not Hungary. So, two out of three, Tommy.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17Ooh, now, let's see if Dave

0:16:17 > 0:16:19can take his place in the final.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23The Salton Sea, one of the world's largest inland seas,

0:16:23 > 0:16:27is located in which US state? Is it...

0:16:33 > 0:16:35DAVE CHUCKLES

0:16:35 > 0:16:38Logic says I should go for Utah or Ohio,

0:16:38 > 0:16:42but I'll go against logic and go with California, down the middle.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44California is the right answer.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47- Got away with it.- You got away with it big time. Well done, Dave.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49- You're in the final. Tommy, sorry. - OK.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51It's not a crisis yet, but you have been knocked out.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53- It's getting there, though. - It's getting there.

0:16:53 > 0:16:58OK, if you come back to us, we'll assess the level of the crisis.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02So, as it stands, the Challengers have lost three brains.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05The Eggheads have still not lost a brain from the final round.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08And the subject is Politics.

0:17:08 > 0:17:09Right, OK.

0:17:09 > 0:17:14- We got to go for it.- I need to sacrifice.- It's not a sacrifice.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16- I need to sacrifice... - I spoke to you about this.

0:17:16 > 0:17:19- It's my least favourite but I need to go for it.- No. This is not a sacrifice.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22- This is not a sacrifice. - This is not a sacrifice?

0:17:22 > 0:17:25Regardless of what Michael says, it's not a sacrifice.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27Go on, Michael. Think about the mind games.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29You're going in this to win it.

0:17:29 > 0:17:33- What do you think? - It's with you.- Er...

0:17:33 > 0:17:34I'll go Pat.

0:17:34 > 0:17:38Michael from Diamond Geezers versus Pat.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41And, please, if you can go to the Question Room.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44OK. Three questions. Multiple choice. Do you want to go first or second?

0:17:44 > 0:17:46I'll go first, please.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51Here we go. Who delivered a speech in the House of Commons

0:17:51 > 0:17:54in 1940 that ended with the line,

0:17:54 > 0:17:56"This was their finest hour"? Was it...

0:18:01 > 0:18:03OK.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06All three it could be, from my point of view.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08No-one's really standing out.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11I have to go for the obvious one.

0:18:11 > 0:18:15Being the war, so I will go for Winston Churchill.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18I'm glad you did. It is Winston Churchill.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22Michael, well done. Pat,

0:18:22 > 0:18:23the Defence of the Realm Act,

0:18:23 > 0:18:25which gave the Government wide-ranging powers,

0:18:25 > 0:18:27was passed at the beginning of which war?

0:18:33 > 0:18:35I'm in trouble here.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37I just don't know.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44I'll go for World War II, and I may well be wrong.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48Barry's reacted with surprised. Tell us why, Barry.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52It was World War I, because that was the first time we, as a country,

0:18:52 > 0:18:54were in serious trouble, and we needed

0:18:54 > 0:18:56all the additional controls that act provided.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58OK. World War I is the answer.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00Pat. This is looking hopeful.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03I may be clutching at straws but, Michael, you're in the lead

0:19:03 > 0:19:05on Politics against Pat,

0:19:05 > 0:19:09and he's a fearsome player in this round and almost all others.

0:19:09 > 0:19:14According to official sources, the birth of the former North Korean leader Kim Jong-il

0:19:14 > 0:19:16was foretold by which bird?

0:19:21 > 0:19:24As a total guess, I will go for...

0:19:24 > 0:19:26owl.

0:19:26 > 0:19:27It's not an owl.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30It's a swallow.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34Pat, which political cartoonist

0:19:34 > 0:19:37created a famous caricature of John Major

0:19:37 > 0:19:40wearing his underpants on the outside of his clothes? Was it...

0:19:45 > 0:19:49Of those, the one I most directly associate

0:19:49 > 0:19:52with specific political caricatures

0:19:52 > 0:19:54is probably Gerald Scarfe.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58Certainly the spiky Margaret Thatcher.

0:19:58 > 0:20:02Did he do a John Major with external underpants?

0:20:04 > 0:20:06I think I'll have to go with Gerald Scarfe,

0:20:06 > 0:20:09just because he did a lot of standalone caricatures.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11You're crashing and burning here, Pat.

0:20:11 > 0:20:14It's not Gerald Scarfe. Steve Bell.

0:20:14 > 0:20:17So he was the one who did the pants.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20Well, well, well. So, if you get this one right,

0:20:20 > 0:20:23you are in the final round.

0:20:23 > 0:20:24OK.

0:20:24 > 0:20:28Between 1970 and 2006, Michael,

0:20:28 > 0:20:32what was the name of the alert system used by the Ministry of Defence

0:20:32 > 0:20:35to assess potential security threats to the UK?

0:20:40 > 0:20:41I think I'll go left this time,

0:20:41 > 0:20:43and I think I'll go for the name Arthur.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45It's not Arthur.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48- Bikini.- Bikini.

0:20:48 > 0:20:49OK.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52You've got a point, and Pat's got no points.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54Let's see whether Pat can stay in.

0:20:54 > 0:20:58In which country, Pat, did the Blue Revolution take place

0:20:58 > 0:21:00in the early part of the 21st century,

0:21:00 > 0:21:05in an attempt to win women's suffrage? Is it...

0:21:11 > 0:21:12Hmm.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16The Blue Revolution. Hmm.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20I really don't know.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22I'm going to guess at Kuwait.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25Kuwait is the right answer. Well done.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28So you are equal, after three questions, with one point.

0:21:28 > 0:21:31And we go to sudden death. I don't give you alternatives.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Michael, in 2011, David Cameron was criticised for saying

0:21:34 > 0:21:38what three-word slogan famously used in an advertisement

0:21:38 > 0:21:41to the Labour MP Angela Eagle?

0:21:48 > 0:21:51I've just got a total memory blank with that.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Erm...

0:21:53 > 0:21:55I really can't think.

0:21:55 > 0:21:58Erm...

0:21:58 > 0:22:01Three-word advertisement?

0:22:02 > 0:22:04I'd go with...

0:22:04 > 0:22:05just do it.

0:22:05 > 0:22:06Let's ask your team.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09- We thought that. - That's what you think it is?

0:22:09 > 0:22:11- No, it's, "Calm down, dear."- Oh, no. ALL: Oh!

0:22:11 > 0:22:13He said it in the House of Commons

0:22:13 > 0:22:15and got criticised for it. OK, Pat,

0:22:15 > 0:22:17there is a bit of a bounce-back by you.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20If you get this right, you are in the final.

0:22:20 > 0:22:25Salil Shetty became Secretary General of which human rights group in 2010?

0:22:28 > 0:22:312010, human rights group.

0:22:31 > 0:22:32Well...

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Hmm. I think...

0:22:35 > 0:22:38I think I'll go global and say Amnesty International.

0:22:38 > 0:22:42The correct answer is Amnesty International. You've taken the round, Pat.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45Well done. And sorry, Michael.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47You have been knocked out on Politics.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49- OK.- I thought you'd make it for a second.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Come back and we'll play that final round.

0:22:53 > 0:22:55So this is what we have been playing towards.

0:22:55 > 0:22:56It is time for the final round,

0:22:56 > 0:22:58which, as always, is General Knowledge.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01Those of you who lost your head to heads won't be allowed

0:23:01 > 0:23:06to take part in this round. And it's all on this side, I'm afraid.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09It's Tommy and Billy and Paul and Michael from Diamond Geezers.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12I have to ask you, will you please leave the studio?

0:23:13 > 0:23:16Darren, I know this was not the plan.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18It certainly wasn't.

0:23:18 > 0:23:22Good luck. You're playing to win your team £11,000.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Dave, Kevin, Judith, Pat and Barry,

0:23:24 > 0:23:27you're playing for something that money can't buy,

0:23:27 > 0:23:29which is the Eggheads' precious reputation.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35This time the questions are all General Knowledge.

0:23:35 > 0:23:36You are allowed to confer.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39So the question is, can you with your one brain

0:23:39 > 0:23:42overwhelm the Eggheads with their five?

0:23:42 > 0:23:43So would you like to go first or second?

0:23:43 > 0:23:45I'll go first, please.

0:23:47 > 0:23:51"Bodice ripper" is a colloquial name for a what?

0:23:57 > 0:23:58I'm...

0:23:58 > 0:24:01Just given it as a bodice being a...

0:24:02 > 0:24:04..sort of sexy undergarment,

0:24:04 > 0:24:06I would go for a romance novel.

0:24:06 > 0:24:09Romance novel is the right answer.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12Good start to get the first one right. Eggheads, all five of you.

0:24:12 > 0:24:16Marion Crane is a leading female character in which Alfred Hitchcock film? Is it...

0:24:20 > 0:24:21- Psycho?- Psycho.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23Yeah. OK. Everybody happy with that?

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Psycho, yeah.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28Erm, Marion Crane is in Psycho.

0:24:28 > 0:24:31It was very strange watching you all suddenly say the word "psycho".

0:24:31 > 0:24:33It looked quite unnerving.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35And you are right. Psycho it is.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37OK.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Keep on at 'em.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42Whose portrait of the Duchess of Devonshire was stolen

0:24:42 > 0:24:45from a London gallery in 1876 in an art theft

0:24:45 > 0:24:49that created great public interest? Was it...

0:24:57 > 0:25:01With Constable, he was known for his landscapes rather than portraits.

0:25:01 > 0:25:05I may be wrong on that. My art knowledge is not fantastic.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08Erm... I don't know why it's jumped out at me

0:25:08 > 0:25:10since you read out the options, Jeremy,

0:25:10 > 0:25:12- but I think I'll go with Gainsborough.- You're right.

0:25:12 > 0:25:15Gainsborough is the right answer. Well done.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17OK, Eggheads.

0:25:17 > 0:25:23In which decade did the productivity campaign called I'm Backing Britain take place?

0:25:29 > 0:25:32- I think it was the '60s. - I think it was the '60s, too.

0:25:32 > 0:25:35- I'm sure it was the '60s. - I'm Backing Britain. Yes.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37- Yeah, '60s sounds right. - I thought it was '60s.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39OK.

0:25:39 > 0:25:43Not 100% certain, Jeremy, but we all have an instinct for the 1960s.

0:25:45 > 0:25:46I'm afraid you're right.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49The 1960s is correct.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51OK.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55Darren, in the 19th century, New Zealand was briefly a dependency

0:25:55 > 0:25:57of which Australian state?

0:26:08 > 0:26:11Trying to think of my geography of Australia.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14Queensland being the largest.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17I would think, given its size and its location in Australia,

0:26:17 > 0:26:20I'm going to go for Queensland.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22Queensland is your answer.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24- Do you know? - ALL: New South Wales.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26New South Wales.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29Eggheads, if you get this one right, you've taken the contest.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33The Scottish lawyer and critic Henry Broome

0:26:33 > 0:26:38wrote a notorious review of a work by which young poet in 1808?

0:26:40 > 0:26:42I think it's Keats.

0:26:43 > 0:26:45That seems a bit early.

0:26:45 > 0:26:48- Byron.- Definitely not Keats. - Seems a little early for Byron.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49There was a famous case

0:26:49 > 0:26:52where I think it was in the Edinburgh Review...

0:26:52 > 0:26:56- Yes. Scottish.- ..that caused a lot of contention.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58About?

0:26:58 > 0:27:03I'd have been worrying if Shelley had come up.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05I'm more inclined to Byron.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07- Mm.- Coleridge is older.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13Cos he was... I mean he was born back in the 1770s.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16- Anyway.- So he wouldn't be a young poet then?

0:27:16 > 0:27:20The thing about Keats is that Keats was only born in 1795.

0:27:20 > 0:27:22It's definitely not him, then.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25- So that would have been pretty precocious.- It is not him.

0:27:25 > 0:27:29- So...- So what you're saying is, the dates are suggesting Byron?

0:27:29 > 0:27:32- The dates are suggesting Byron. - Coleridge would be 38.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36Byron certainly did get some bad reviews from Scottish reviewers.

0:27:36 > 0:27:38- OK.- OK.- Byron.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40He wasn't the only one.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43- Yeah.- But, erm...

0:27:43 > 0:27:46Well, I think, on the basis of age, here,

0:27:46 > 0:27:50who was the right sort of age at the right time, we'll go for Byron.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54Byron is the correct answer, Eggheads.

0:27:54 > 0:27:58Good logic from you there. Impressive knowledge.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00And we say congratulations, you have won.

0:28:05 > 0:28:09Ah! Well, I guess you could've got the New South Wales,

0:28:09 > 0:28:12then sudden death, and it wouldn't have been guaranteed.

0:28:12 > 0:28:17- I wouldn't have got their questions, either, so... - Well, thanks for playing so well.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19And the Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them

0:28:19 > 0:28:21and their winning streak continues here.

0:28:21 > 0:28:25I'm afraid it does mean that the Diamond Geezers are not going home with the £11,000,

0:28:25 > 0:28:28so the money rolls over to our next show.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31Eggheads, many congratulations. Who will beat you?

0:28:31 > 0:28:34Join us next time to see if a new team of Challengers

0:28:34 > 0:28:36have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:36 > 0:28:39£12,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye.
