0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 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 > 0:00:19The 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 > 0:00:34They are the Eggheads. Challenging our resident quiz champions today
0:00:34 > 0:00:36are The Winchester Club from Hampshire.
0:00:36 > 0:00:40They met through the various social events held at the club,
0:00:40 > 0:00:44and take part in the quiz on the third Wednesday of every month. Let's meet them.
0:00:44 > 0:00:49Hi, I'm Beryl. I'm 65, and I'm a retired bank official.
0:00:49 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Brian, I'm 74, and I'm a retired civil servant.
0:00:54 > 0:00:59Hi. I'm Linda, I'm 62, and I'm a retired local government officer.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Hi. My name's Don, I'm 66, and a retired rubber chemist.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Hello. I'm Tony, I'm 62, and I'm a retired company director.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10- Beryl and team, welcome.- Thank you. - Good to see you.
0:01:10 > 0:01:16- We haven't got Kevin today. It's your neighbourhood. - We are disappointed he's not here.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- So tell us about The Winchester Club. - It's a social club.
0:01:19 > 0:01:25We have many activities. We all go there for the dancing, the quiz nights,
0:01:25 > 0:01:27but we have bowls, darts, bridge.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31- I wrote cribbage down here. - Yes, I play cribbage.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36- What is cribbage?- You have a wooden board, and you have pegs,
0:01:36 > 0:01:39and your cards add up to 15, or pairs,
0:01:39 > 0:01:41one for his nob. It's just a card game.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45- OK. Anyone play that over here? Daphne plays cribbage.- Yes.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48- I have done in the past.- But not at The Winchester Club?- No.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53Good luck. It's obviously the hub of activity.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56We hope it becomes the hub of a big win here for you this afternoon.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Every day there is £1,000 up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07So I can tell you, the Eggheads are doing pretty well.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09- They've won the last 14 games.- Wow.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13Which means £15,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17So you'll be buying the drinks at the club if you win. THEY LAUGH
0:02:17 > 0:02:21The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of sport.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24- Is that good or bad?- That's OK. - That's OK.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27- Who would like this?- Right. - It looks like me.- Brian.- OK.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Before you go, choose an Egghead. You can have any of them.
0:02:30 > 0:02:35- Chris, please.- Right. You sound very businesslike. I think they've got a plan.
0:02:35 > 0:02:39So Brian from The Winchester Club vs Chris from the Eggheads on sport.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43- Tricky for you, Chris, this one? - I have been winning a few lately.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46You have. Well reminded. To ensure there's no conferring,
0:02:46 > 0:02:49take your positions in the question room.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54- So, Brian, you were in the army for a time?- I was, yes.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Then changed into the civil service.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Before that I was in the merchant navy.
0:02:59 > 0:03:05- Retired from that, and again we can find you down at The Winchester Club, can we?- You can indeed.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08- It sounds like a great place. - Oh, it is.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11- Very civilised.- Well,... sometimes.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13THEY LAUGH Until the fighting starts.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16- Exactly.- OK, good luck in sport against Chris.
0:03:16 > 0:03:21You will get three questions in turn. Whoever answers the most questions correctly
0:03:21 > 0:03:26- goes through to the final. Brian, you can choose the first or second set. - May I got first, please?
0:03:29 > 0:03:34Here we go. In what sport would one be most likely to use a release aid?
0:03:37 > 0:03:41A release aid. R-E-L-E-A-S-E.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46I don't think it's cricket.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50I've played a bit of that. I can't remember anything in Badminton,
0:03:50 > 0:03:52so I'll go for archery, please.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56Yeah, releasing the arrow. Archery's quite right. Well done.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Your question, Chris.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01In golf, a double eagle is the equivalent of what score?
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Er, double eagle. Um...
0:04:08 > 0:04:11It's surely two under par, so it's an albatross.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16- It's funny you say that. Anyone know at this side? Is he right?- Yes.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19- It's right, but it's three under par.- Is it?
0:04:19 > 0:04:21- Yeah, but albatross is the right answer.- Mm-hm.
0:04:21 > 0:04:25But three under par, double eagle, albatross, all the same thing.
0:04:26 > 0:04:27OK. Brian,
0:04:27 > 0:04:31in what position did the footballer Dave Beasant regularly play?
0:04:34 > 0:04:37I don't think he was a striker.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Defender, no.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43I'm pretty sure he was a goalkeeper.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46You are absolutely right. Goalkeeper is the right answer.
0:04:48 > 0:04:54Chris, your question. In 2012, who became the first cricketer to score 100 international centuries?
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Sachin Tendulkar holds some record or other,
0:05:05 > 0:05:08but that's been around for a few years, I think.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13I don't think it's Rahul Dravid and I don't think it's Kevin Pietersen.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15I'll got with Sachin Tendulkar.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18You are quite right. Sachin Tendulkar it is.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Cracking along and no-one's got a question wrong.
0:05:21 > 0:05:26Brian, in 2010, Amy Williams became the first British female
0:05:26 > 0:05:29to win an individual Winter Olympics gold medal
0:05:29 > 0:05:31since which ice skater in 1952?
0:05:39 > 0:05:43I'm not sure. I don't recognise any of them, unfortunately.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48So I think it was Lydia Wideman.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53No, it wasn't Lydia. It was Jeanette Altwegg in the middle.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Anyone know what Amy Williams did?
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Yeah, the skeleton.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Right, OK, well, good for Amy.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Chris, your question to take the round.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09The racing team HRT, which made its first Formula One appearance in 2010,
0:06:09 > 0:06:12was founded by which former racing driver?
0:06:22 > 0:06:25- Well, it's going to be a complete and utter guess. Marc Gene.- No.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29Anybody... Anyone know on this team? No?
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Based in India, it's Adrian Campos.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Yeah, that's right. Adrian Campos is the correct answer.
0:06:37 > 0:06:42OK, just as I say we're going great guns and getting every question right, we stumble.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- We go to sudden death, Brian. OK? - Yep.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47It gets harder. I don't give you alternatives.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51Which of tennis's four Grand Slam singles' tournaments
0:06:51 > 0:06:55did Andre Agassi win on the most occasions?
0:06:59 > 0:07:01I don't think it was the French.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05I don't think it was Australian.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Was it the American?
0:07:10 > 0:07:12- No. Australian Open.- Ahh.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Four times. He won the US Open twice,
0:07:16 > 0:07:18and Wimbledon and the French Open once each.
0:07:20 > 0:07:24Chris, if you get this right you will be in the final round.
0:07:24 > 0:07:30In which sport did Adrian Lewis from Staffordshire become a world champion for the first time in 2011?
0:07:34 > 0:07:38- Weightlifting? - No. It's almost the opposite. Darts.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40- That's a game, it's not a sport. - THEY LAUGH
0:07:41 > 0:07:44- His nickname is Jackpot.- Yes. - Oh, yeah.
0:07:45 > 0:07:46Daphne knows. Daphne?
0:07:46 > 0:07:51And he's called Jackpot because apparently we to Las Vegas one year
0:07:51 > 0:07:58- and he won the jackpot, but because he wasn't 21 he wasn't allowed to have it.- Oh, my goodness.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01So we're equal. Brian, back to you.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Which Olympic gold medal-winning British athlete
0:08:04 > 0:08:07did Sebastian Coe once describe as a Stalinist,
0:08:08 > 0:08:11adding, "It is not enough for him to win."
0:08:11 > 0:08:13"He has to mentally destroy his opponent."?
0:08:13 > 0:08:15(Olympic?)
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Let me see.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22HE SIGHS
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Oh, I can't think of his name. David...
0:08:27 > 0:08:29No, it's gone, I'm afraid.
0:08:31 > 0:08:37- Did you get halfway there or...? - David.- David?- Yeah.- No.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39- Daley Thompson.- Daley, that's it.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43- I thought you might go for Steve Ovett, cos they had a big... - That's what I thought.
0:08:43 > 0:08:49- Tug of war.- They did.- Daley Thompson. Let's see if Chris can book his place in the final round.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Which Soviet gymnast was the first to be inducted
0:08:52 > 0:08:56into the International Gymnastics Hall of Fame?
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- Oh, what was her name? Olga Korbut. - Olga Korbut is the right answer.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Well done on sport. You're in the final. Brian, sorry.
0:09:05 > 0:09:12You've failed to triumph over our Egghead. You've been knocked out. Both of you come back to your teams.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15The Challengers have lost a brain from the final round,
0:09:15 > 0:09:19the Eggheads have lost no brains. It's early days. You can turn it around.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23- Do you believe that?- Yes.- Yes. - A slight pause and then "yes."
0:09:23 > 0:09:26The next subject is politics. Who would like this?
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- That's the one we were dreading. - I think I'm...
0:09:29 > 0:09:32- I think I'm...- Tony?- Yeah.- Tony.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Tony, OK. Which Egghead, Tony?
0:09:35 > 0:09:37What do we all think? We don't know Dave, do we?
0:09:37 > 0:09:40We don't know much about him yet, do we, Dave?
0:09:40 > 0:09:44- We don't know about Dave.- Um... - Not Daphne or Barry.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Pat?- Pat.- Pat.- No, I don't think so.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50- Who do you fancy? - I think I'll try Dave.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53- OK.- He's the unknown quantity. - Unknown.
0:09:53 > 0:09:59Gradually becoming more and more known. Tremendous Knowledge Dave against Tony from Winchester Club.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06- So you're retired now, Tony? - Yes, I am.
0:10:06 > 0:10:12- What were you doing before that? - I was a... Basically, I was a mechanical designer.
0:10:12 > 0:10:17But I was managing director of a company, a small company, making tobacco processing machinery.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- Oh, OK. Here or abroad or what? - No, I worked in the UK.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24I ended up working for an Italian company
0:10:24 > 0:10:26but I was the MD of the UK operation.
0:10:26 > 0:10:31- Is it fun being retired? I bet you're busier than ever? - Much busier than ever.
0:10:31 > 0:10:36- It's not a problem to fill a day. - Great. Good luck against Tremendous Knowledge Dave.
0:10:36 > 0:10:41Now three questions. Politics. I know this isn't necessarily the subject your team wanted.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- Do you want the first or second set of questions?- I think I'll go second.
0:10:47 > 0:10:53Dave, here's your first question. In 2004, Sergei Lavrov became which country's foreign minister?
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Lavrov. And that is L-A-VR-O-V?
0:10:58 > 0:11:02It's say S-E-R-G-E-I and then L-A-V-R-O-V, yeah.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Well, just from the name I will go Russia.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Russia is spot on, Dave. Well done.
0:11:09 > 0:11:14Tony, who won the French presidential election in May 2012?
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Well, the election run-off
0:11:23 > 0:11:27was between Sarkozy and Francois Hollande,
0:11:27 > 0:11:30and Francois Hollande got the vote.
0:11:31 > 0:11:36You're quite right. He knocked Sarkozy off his perch. Well done.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39OK, Tremendous Knowledge Dave, at the 1997 general election,
0:11:39 > 0:11:44which party used the phrase "Britain deserves better" as its main slogan?
0:11:47 > 0:11:51Well, the Conservatives were in power at that general election.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57It sounds the kind of thing that Labour would've said,
0:11:57 > 0:12:03in terms of looking forward. So my answer is Labour.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Labour is the right answer.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08They had it on three battle buses.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11- One said "Britain", one said, "Deserves", one said "Better".- Right.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15The only problem came when the back one got overtaken
0:12:15 > 0:12:19by a van delivering sausages. It said "Britain deserves sausages."
0:12:19 > 0:12:23Tony, the politician George Osborne was born in which year?
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Well, from the look of him, um,
0:12:34 > 0:12:38I would guess he's a similar sort of age to me,
0:12:38 > 0:12:40so I'm going to go for 1961.
0:12:42 > 0:12:46He's actually younger than that. He's '71. 1971 he was born.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51So back to you, Dave. If you get this right you will take the round.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Who was the Labour MP for Knowsley North until 1986?
0:13:01 > 0:13:06I think the word we use for all three of those Labour politicians is "colourful" characters.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11George Galloway has a constituency in Glasgow.
0:13:11 > 0:13:17I think he latterly got elected for Respect in both London and Bradford.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Dennis Skinner's the Beast of Bolsover.
0:13:20 > 0:13:24But the person I'd associate with Knowsley North, because at the time
0:13:24 > 0:13:28there was big divisions within the Labour Party.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31That was part of the reason that he decided to stand down.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34The person I'd associate is Robert Kilroy-Silk.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37Robert Kilroy-Silk is absolutely right.
0:13:37 > 0:13:42- He was kind of a right-winger and got into trouble with militant, didn't he?- Yes.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45At the time there was obviously a big struggle in Liverpool
0:13:45 > 0:13:49with what was going on in terms of the national party as well.
0:13:49 > 0:13:54He decided to go away, and then obviously went into a media career at the time.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58You've got it right. Well done. Dave, you're in the final.
0:13:58 > 0:14:03Sorry, Tony, no way back for you. Please rejoin your teams and we'll play on.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- Now, two brains gone, Beryl.- Yes.
0:14:07 > 0:14:11If you were playing cribbage, would you move the nobs around or what?
0:14:11 > 0:14:14No. If we were playing cribbage we'd win.
0:14:14 > 0:14:15THEY LAUGH
0:14:15 > 0:14:17We're expert at crib.
0:14:17 > 0:14:21In this game, do you change strategy? That's the key question.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25- Not once you start.- We haven't yet got the women on the battlefield.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28- That could change everything. - It could indeed.- Absolutely.
0:14:29 > 0:14:33So two challenges down. Eggheads still intact,
0:14:33 > 0:14:36all the shells unbroken. The next subject is science.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41- Is this good?- It's got to be you.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45- Don, you're a scientist, aren't you? - Yeah, on the rubber side, anyway.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48OK. Well, Don against which Egghead?
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- Right.- Barry, Pat or Daphne?
0:14:51 > 0:14:54- I'd like to play against Daphne, actually.- Yes, I think so.- OK.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Can I have Daphne, please?
0:14:56 > 0:15:00OK, so Don from The Winchester Club vs Daphne from the Eggheads,
0:15:00 > 0:15:03who's proved to be very capable on science recently.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07We've noticed that. Please, both of you, go to the question room now.
0:15:08 > 0:15:14- Don, we've got you down as a scientist, have we?- Yes, sort of, but only in a very narrow field
0:15:14 > 0:15:17of polymers, really. Plastics and rubber.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21- Polymers as they relate to racing cars?- From a ceiling point of view, yeah.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24We're into the, sort of, transmission seals,
0:15:24 > 0:15:27gearboxes for, basically, the Formula One teams.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29My last ten years was in that role.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33So you were trying to work out what's light and doesn't catch fire?
0:15:33 > 0:15:36We used to try and come up with the specs for them.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39A lot of it was obviously strength,
0:15:39 > 0:15:41titanium shells, all sorts of things like that.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Anything to get everything smaller, lighter,
0:15:44 > 0:15:46to make the car quicker, really.
0:15:46 > 0:15:51If we get a question on the kind of rubber that gearboxes are made out of in Formula One,
0:15:51 > 0:15:56- you're likely to get that right. - But they don't make a whole gearbox out of rubber.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58THEY LAUGH
0:15:58 > 0:16:02Daphne will probably get it right because she's brilliant at guessing.
0:16:02 > 0:16:08- I'll ask each of you three questions. Choose the first or second set, Don. - Um, I think I'll go second.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Daphne, your first question.
0:16:13 > 0:16:17Which colour is most typical of the gemstone citrine?
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Citrine is yellow.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Yellow is right.
0:16:28 > 0:16:33Don, here's your question. Titanoboa, which lived 58 million years ago
0:16:33 > 0:16:38and was approximately 50ft in length, was what type of creature?
0:16:41 > 0:16:45Well, I recently saw a programme on the biggest snake,
0:16:45 > 0:16:49and as the word "boa" is at the end I think I'll go for snake, Jeremy.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52Good answer, good logic. Snake it is.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58You wouldn't like to meet that one, Daphne, in your nightdress.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00The Turing Award is given annually
0:17:00 > 0:17:04to those considered outstanding in which field?
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Mm. That is computer science.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15Named after?
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Alan Turing.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19Who cracked the...?
0:17:19 > 0:17:21Enigma code.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Very good. Computer science is right. Well done.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27She's ahead of you, Don, but you can catch up now.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Where in the human body
0:17:29 > 0:17:32are the anterior cervical lymph nodes located?
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Right, er...
0:17:41 > 0:17:45We know they're under the armpits. There's some in the neck.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49Because of cervical and the area, I'm going to go for thighs, Jeremy.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53- I understand your logic there, but it's neck actually.- Oh, was it?
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Help us out, this word cervical.
0:17:55 > 0:18:00The cervical vertebrae are part of the spine that are in the neck.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04What does... So if it's got the word cervix or cervical in it,
0:18:04 > 0:18:07- what does that mean it is? - It means neck.- Neck?
0:18:07 > 0:18:11- In Latin.- Anything cervical is neck-based, Don.- Oh.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Daphne, greylag is a species of which bird?
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Sorry. It's a goose.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26Why are you saying sorry?
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Because I know it's a goose.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31It is a goose, and you're very polite, Egghead, today.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34Thank you for apologising to the other contestant.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37You've three in a row. Sorry, Dom.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41That means you've been knocked out. Daphne has taken the round.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44She does tend to do that, even on science.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47The rubber thing didn't come up, did it? That's the trouble.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51Please, both of you, come back here and rejoin your teammates.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54We're all interested in The Winchester Club.
0:18:54 > 0:19:00- Could we join it or would we have to live in Winchester?- Anyone can join. - So from all round the world?- Yes.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03- It's not political, just social? - It's not political at all.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06We do food as well, which is excellent.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08- You have a nice premises?- Very nice.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12- A bar and restaurant?- We have two bars, and a lounge which we use as a restaurant.
0:19:12 > 0:19:18We have a big room called the Churchill Room, which is for functions. We do weddings, parties.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21That can hold up to 160 people.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24- Is Kevin a member, do you know? - He's not.- He's not.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26- We've got to work on that one. - We need to work on it.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30- We can encourage him to join the team.- Join your quiz team, exactly.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32He'd get all the questions right.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35As it stands, the Challengers have lost three brains,
0:19:35 > 0:19:40the Eggheads no brains. We did have a big win the other day. They were reduced to one.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42So don't worry, it's not over.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45The last subject before the final is music.
0:19:45 > 0:19:50- Who will this be? Linda or Beryl? - That's Lin.- Lin?- It's got to be me.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53OK, Linda, against which Egghead?
0:19:53 > 0:19:56Um... I think... I think I'll take Barry, please.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01OK, Linda from The Winchester Club against Barry from the Eggheads.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05- Are you feeling musical, Barry, today?- I'm always feeling musical. I sing in the bath.
0:20:05 > 0:20:09To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- So, Linda, you're married to Don. - I am, yes.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17- I know you go to the club for some dancing occasionally.- Yes, we enjoy the dancing.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21- Any particular styles? - Well, we mainly jive. Rock and roll.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24But we're actually having ballroom lessons at the moment.
0:20:24 > 0:20:29- There we are, same as you. - Absolutely. It's a wonderful thing to do.- What are you finding?
0:20:29 > 0:20:34We were discussing last time whether you were doing the pogo in your lessons. You said no.
0:20:34 > 0:20:39- What are you specialising in? - Everything, but I particularly like cha-cha.- We do as well.
0:20:39 > 0:20:44- I love the Latin dances. - OK, if it's a draw after this round, you've got to cha-cha together.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46- I look forward to that. - THEY LAUGH
0:20:46 > 0:20:51Each of you will get questions on music in turn. Linda, choose the first or second set.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53I think I'd like to go second, please.
0:20:56 > 0:21:01Barry, your question. The bugle belongs to which group of instruments?
0:21:04 > 0:21:07As a bugle is yellow and made out of brass,
0:21:07 > 0:21:09I think it must belong to the brass.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Brass is bang on. OK, Linda,
0:21:12 > 0:21:15in which decade was Kate Bush's debut album
0:21:15 > 0:21:18The Kick Inside first released?
0:21:21 > 0:21:22Um...
0:21:22 > 0:21:25I don't think it's '60s.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28I think it's probably '70s. I'll go for '70s.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Very good. 1970s is right.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Is it Wuthering Heights and all that?
0:21:34 > 0:21:36Good old Kate Bush.
0:21:36 > 0:21:42Barry, which model co-wrote several songs on the 2007 Babyshambles album
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Shotter's Nation?
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Oh, goodness me.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Hmm. Babyshambles.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56I'm really not at all sure on this one.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01I don't think it was Lily Cole, but I could be wrong.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06I don't know. I'm going to plump for Kate Moss,
0:22:06 > 0:22:07but it's an out and out guess.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09- Kate Moss is quite right.- Ooh.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14OK, Linda, your question. The Sky Is Too High, released in 1998,
0:22:14 > 0:22:17was the first solo album by which member of the band Blur?
0:22:24 > 0:22:28Oh, I'm not really sure of this. I was never really into Blur.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Um...
0:22:32 > 0:22:34I think...
0:22:35 > 0:22:40I think I will have to... As Damon Albarn is the only one I recognise
0:22:40 > 0:22:43I'm going to have to go for him. Damon Albarn.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47Damon Albarn has been very busy and he is the lead singer.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50- It's not him, though. It's Graham Coxon actually.- Right.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55OK, Barry, your question. If you get this right you've taken the round.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Oh, are we in trouble, then? Hang on a minute.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00We're down to one. Uh-oh.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04- Barry...- There's that little word "if", though.
0:23:04 > 0:23:09Which composer was granted an annual allowance of £200 by Queen Anne,
0:23:09 > 0:23:11after he composed Utrecht Te Deum and Jubilate
0:23:11 > 0:23:16to celebrate the Peace of Utrecht?
0:23:22 > 0:23:26Well, it wouldn't have been Brahms because he wasn't born then.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29I'm trying to think, the Peace of Utrecht, when that was.
0:23:29 > 0:23:34That would have been about 1713 or 1714.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37Oh, 1713 I think the Peace of Utrecht,
0:23:37 > 0:23:39which makes it a little late for Bach.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42So think my answer must be George Frideric Handel.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45- Do you think he's right, Linda? - I expect he is.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47I'm afraid he is. Handel is right. Well done.
0:23:47 > 0:23:52You've taken the music round, a strong subject for you. Sorry, Linda.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54You've been knocked out as well.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58We'll see what happens to your team in the final if you come back to us.
0:23:58 > 0:24:03This is what we have been playing towards. It is time for the final round, general knowledge.
0:24:03 > 0:24:08I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed to take part.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11So Brian, Linda, Don and Tony from The Winchester Club,
0:24:11 > 0:24:14would you please now leave the studio.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20- I know this wasn't meant to happen, Beryl.- It certainly wasn't.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Your brilliant Winchester Club are all now backstage
0:24:24 > 0:24:28- and it's all down to you.- Thank you. No pressure then.- No pressure.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Good jackpot for you to win. £15,000.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34The Eggheads, Pat, Barry, Chris, Daphne and Dave,
0:24:34 > 0:24:39you're playing for something money can't buy, which is your reputation.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45The questions are general knowledge. You are allowed to confer.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49Beryl, the question is, can you, with your one brain,
0:24:49 > 0:24:52destroy this team of five? And believe me, it's been done.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54Don't say no. It's been done.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58- We wish you well. Do you want to go first or second?- First, please.
0:25:00 > 0:25:04A jurist is someone who is expert in what area?
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Spelt J-U-R-I-S-T.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13I'm not really sure about this at all.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17I don't think it's literature.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21I think I'm just going to say law.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25Law is the right answer. Well done. Very good.
0:25:25 > 0:25:31Eggheads, what name was given to the English government from 1653 to 1659?
0:25:35 > 0:25:38- Protectorate.- Protectorate.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41That's the Protectorate. Cromwell's period of rule.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44The Protectorate is quite right.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49Beryl, the type of graphical mark the solidus
0:25:49 > 0:25:51is more commonly known by what name?
0:25:52 > 0:25:55The solidus is spelt S-O-L-I-D-U-S, as you'd expect.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07I haven't got a clue, to be honest with you. Um... Solidus?
0:26:13 > 0:26:16They're all looking at me. They know the answer.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20Um... I think I'm going to have to guess and say...
0:26:22 > 0:26:24..bracket.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26- Let's see if they know.- Slash.- Slash.
0:26:26 > 0:26:31- Slash is the answer.- Thank you. - Let's hope you don't fall behind now.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35Eggheads, a toponym is a name derived from what?
0:26:39 > 0:26:42- Place.- Place.- Place. - Yes, definitely.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44That's a place.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Place is the right answer. Well done.
0:26:47 > 0:26:51OK, you need to get this one right, Beryl, or else they will have won.
0:26:53 > 0:26:58The Chagres River flows through which Central American country?
0:26:58 > 0:27:01C-H-A-G-R-E-S. The Chagres River.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13These questions are certainly not my subject.
0:27:13 > 0:27:18I will... I'm just going to go down the middle and say Costa Rica.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22The answer is Panama.
0:27:22 > 0:27:26- Sorry, team.- No apologies are needed, I promise,
0:27:26 > 0:27:29but we do say congratulations, Eggheads. You have won.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37- It does get a bit lonely there. - It's very lonely - and frightening.
0:27:37 > 0:27:42- It may not make them easier to have another person, but you can bounce off each other.- Yes.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45I feel like I want to help and I'm not allowed to, so...
0:27:45 > 0:27:47- Beryl, well done.- Thank you.
0:27:47 > 0:27:52- Doughty performance, and it's nice to see the team and get to know the club.- Thanks.
0:27:52 > 0:27:57Commiserations. The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them, and their winning streak continues.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01It does mean The Winchester Club won't be going back with the £15,000.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04The money now rolls over to our next show.
0:28:04 > 0:28:08Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you? You're playing really well.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11Join us next time to see if a new team of Challengers
0:28:11 > 0:28:14have the brains to defeat this lot.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16£16,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
