0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20Question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Welcome to Eggheads, the show where
0:00:25 > 0:00:27a team of five quiz challengers pit their wits
0:00:27 > 0:00:30against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads!
0:00:32 > 0:00:35And taking on the awesome might of our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:35 > 0:00:37are Window Box.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Now, this team regularly quiz at the Boot and Shoe pub in Ackworth
0:00:39 > 0:00:43and take their team name from the place in the pub
0:00:43 > 0:00:44where they always sit.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Let's meet them.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50Hello. My name is David. I'm 68 and I'm a retired private hire driver.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Hello. I'm Graham. I'm 43 and I'm a police inspector.
0:00:54 > 0:00:59Hello. I'm Paul. I'm 46 and a volunteer basketball coach.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Hello. I'm Tony.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04I'm 64 and a semi-retired photographer.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Hello. I'm Jeff. I'm 67,
0:01:06 > 0:01:09and a retired paint and wallpaper shop owner.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Welcome to you, Window Box.
0:01:11 > 0:01:12No windows in this studio, I'm afraid,
0:01:12 > 0:01:15so you don't have to eject anyone from your favourite seats.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19Is that what you do if there's some stranger, like the Eggheads,
0:01:19 > 0:01:21- sitting there, would you eject them? - Certainly.- Politely.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24We ask them politely to go and sit somewhere else.
0:01:24 > 0:01:25It doesn't always work!
0:01:25 > 0:01:26They know their place!
0:01:26 > 0:01:29What about the quiz there, is it a good one, a hard one?
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- We do all right, most of the time. - Do all right?
0:01:32 > 0:01:35- Yes.- Don't you win it most of the time, and save up the winnings?
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Well, 50-50. We save up the winnings, yes,
0:01:37 > 0:01:40and go out every Christmas for a slap-up meal somewhere.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43I'm surprised you're not barred if you keep winning it.
0:01:43 > 0:01:44Give someone else a chance?
0:01:44 > 0:01:46We let other teams win now and again,
0:01:46 > 0:01:48just to keep it fair and square.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51- You let them win. - We let them win, yes.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53I know you're not going to do that today,
0:01:53 > 0:01:55you're going to give the Eggheads a run for their money.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58But as you know, no quarter given or asked from the Eggheads,
0:01:58 > 0:02:00so this should be a great quiz. Let's see how it goes.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs
0:02:03 > 0:02:06for our challengers. If they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:02:06 > 0:02:08the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11So, Window Box, the Eggheads have won the last four games,
0:02:11 > 0:02:15that means £5,000 says you can't beat those Eggheads.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Let's get our first head-to-head under way.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21This subject, to kick off, is History.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Only one of you can play this.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24I think we've decided.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26- It's got to be David.- I think so.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28I'll have history, Dermot.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31All right, straight in there. David, you like history.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- Who do you think doesn't from the Eggheads?- Er...
0:02:33 > 0:02:35I don't think there is one of them that doesn't,
0:02:35 > 0:02:38- but who might be beaten? - I think they all like history.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41- Do you think so?- Yes.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44- I think...- Who will be the weakest? - Go for the good-looking one.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47I think we'll avoid Judith because she was very good on history,
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- wasn't she?- Yes.- So...
0:02:49 > 0:02:53- I don't know.- Shall we get rid of Pat?- Judith, then?- Yes, yes.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56- Judith, please.- Oh, Judith? I thought you were...- Yes.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Tony was advising, stay away from Judith,
0:02:58 > 0:03:01but it's your choice, you're the captain.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04- So, it is going to be Judith. - Yes, he was overruled.- Oh, right!
0:03:04 > 0:03:07It's going to be David and Judith, then, contesting the opening round.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09It's History. Could I ask you both to go to the Question Room
0:03:09 > 0:03:12to make sure you can't confer with your team-mates?
0:03:13 > 0:03:16David, Tony was warning you before you decided to take Judith on
0:03:16 > 0:03:19there that she's pretty good at history.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21And, wow, she's really been on form.
0:03:21 > 0:03:2529 times, you've won 28 out of those 29.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Fantastic record. Have I just put a hex on it?
0:03:28 > 0:03:29Yes!
0:03:29 > 0:03:30- Thanks(!)- All right.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Well, I hope I have put a hex on it,
0:03:33 > 0:03:37from David's point of view. David - do you want to go first or second?
0:03:37 > 0:03:38Er, first, please, Dermot.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Good luck, David. Here you go, then -
0:03:43 > 0:03:46which title was given to the rulers of the Ottoman Empire?
0:03:49 > 0:03:52Well, the Pharaohs were Egyptians, the Rajahs were Indians,
0:03:52 > 0:03:54so the answer is Sultan.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56It is, yes, Sultan, of course!
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Well done, David.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Judith - historically,
0:03:59 > 0:04:02where did a scullion work?
0:04:04 > 0:04:06Oh, scullions worked in the kitchen.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09- Is that where we get scullery from? - I suppose so, yeah.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Erm, how many have you still got?
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Oh, dozens, of course.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Playing along with us there, and getting the right answer.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Kitchen is correct. David -
0:04:18 > 0:04:22the Punch cartoon captioned, "Dropping the pilot"
0:04:22 > 0:04:25illustrated the departure of which politician?
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Er, I would say, well, it's not...
0:04:30 > 0:04:34I'll discount Bismarck. I don't think he was a pilot, really.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Erm...
0:04:36 > 0:04:38De Gaulle, no.
0:04:38 > 0:04:43I would think the pilot would be, in Punch terms, Winston Churchill.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Churchill for Punch, "Dropping the pilot."
0:04:46 > 0:04:50But it's not Churchill. It IS Bismarck.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52And I can vaguely recall seeing it.
0:04:52 > 0:04:53I mean, pilot, we're talking
0:04:53 > 0:04:55- in shipping terms...- Ships, yeah.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58..steering the good ship Germany.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Right, well, nothing there for David. Judith -
0:05:01 > 0:05:05Godfrey of Bouillon and Robert Curthose, Duke of Normandy,
0:05:05 > 0:05:08were two of the leaders of which campaign?
0:05:11 > 0:05:15I wonder if Robert was William the Conqueror's younger...
0:05:15 > 0:05:17or brother?
0:05:17 > 0:05:22Because I know one of his brothers became or stayed Duke of Normandy,
0:05:22 > 0:05:24but William was Duke of Normandy.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27So, erm, it could have been a Crusade.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32I don't know where Bouillon is.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36But he wouldn't have been Duke of Normandy at the time
0:05:36 > 0:05:38of the Conquest, so I think you have to rule out Robert.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41So I think probably the First Crusade.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Well worked out, that's the right answer, Judith,
0:05:43 > 0:05:44and the lead for you.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47It means you need to get this, David -
0:05:47 > 0:05:49in the late 19th and early 20th centuries,
0:05:49 > 0:05:52John Arbuthnot Fisher was a senior officer
0:05:52 > 0:05:55in which of the Armed Services?
0:05:57 > 0:06:02Right, well it wouldn't have been the Royal Air Force, I don't think, at that time.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05So it's the Army or the Navy.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Well, with a name like Fisher, I'll go for the Royal Navy!
0:06:08 > 0:06:10And you're right to do so. It is correct.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14Made it a 50-50 for you there, working out that the RAF
0:06:14 > 0:06:17weren't around in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22Judith, you've to answer a question. If you are to get through, you've to answer it correctly.
0:06:22 > 0:06:27Which 1895 treaty ended the first Sino-Japanese War?
0:06:33 > 0:06:38Um, I really don't know. Um, let's try Tientsin.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41Tientsni. Eh, Treaty of Tientsin.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- Was it, other Eggheads? - No.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Go on Daphne. Shimonoseki.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Shimonoseki was the treaty we were looking for.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53So, well survived those early exchanges, David.
0:06:53 > 0:06:58Both making one mistake and taking us into sudden death.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Just to remind you David, taking away the choices.
0:07:01 > 0:07:07The 1950 battle of Chosin Reservoir took place during which conflict?
0:07:07 > 0:07:111950 - I would think that could be the Korean War.
0:07:11 > 0:07:18- Is that your answer?- Yes. - It's the correct answer, yes. Chosin Reservoir, the Korean War.
0:07:18 > 0:07:23Judith, the area of the ancient Roman province of Tarraconensis -
0:07:23 > 0:07:27T.A.R.R.A.C.O.N.E.N.S.I.S.,
0:07:27 > 0:07:31Tarraconensis, is in which modern country?
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I really have no idea. Um...
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Tarraconensis?
0:07:39 > 0:07:41(Ta-ra-con...)
0:07:41 > 0:07:45- I don't know. Um, Turkey. - Turkey?- Hm.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49So large, the Roman Empire but you've got the wrong end of it.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53- It's Spain.- Oh, Spain. I thought of Spain.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56I was wondering because you were playing with sounds in your head.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- Tar-a-con, Aragon.- I was just saying Tarragon hoping it meant something.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02- Yes, whatever, Judith, you didn't get it right!- No.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04I knew you'd put a jinx on it.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- Well, we have, haven't we?- Yeah.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11So that's 28 out of 30, just ruined the stats ever so slightly.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15We're not concerned about that. David, you're in the final round.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19Great stuff. Would you please come back and join your teams?
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Well, first blood to Window Box.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24One Egghead missing from the final round.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Our next head-to-head today is Arts & Books.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29Who wants to play this?
0:08:29 > 0:08:32- It has to be me. Me, Dermot. - All right, Tony.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36And which Egghead would you like to play, anyone apart from Judith?
0:08:36 > 0:08:39- I'd like to play Daphne, please. - OK, Daphne.
0:08:39 > 0:08:44- You said that, Tony, with a certain degree of admiration in your voice. - Absolutely.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47OK, let's have Tony and Daphne into the question room, please.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Tony, do you want to go first or second?
0:08:51 > 0:08:53I'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58OK, first question then, Tony.
0:08:58 > 0:09:03Cecelia Ahern is most associated with which genre of fiction?
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Oh, dear! The only Ahern I know is Caroline Aherne,
0:09:08 > 0:09:11who is of course a comedy writer.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Erm...
0:09:13 > 0:09:15I wouldn't know what chick lit is anyway,
0:09:15 > 0:09:18but, however, I will consider it.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21I guess she's a crime writer, Dermot.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25OK, Cecelia Ahern, most accociated with...
0:09:25 > 0:09:28it is chick lit, not crime.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30And your first question, Daphne.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33In the collection of the National Galleries of Scotland,
0:09:33 > 0:09:37an 1863 photograph by George Washington Wilson
0:09:37 > 0:09:42shows a horse, Fyvie, held by John Brown and ridden by whom?
0:09:46 > 0:09:51Well, if it's John Brown, it's got to be Queen Victoria.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52It does indeed, yes.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53John Brown and Queen Victoria.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56OK, well, you need to get off the mark, Tony.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Here's your second question.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01The phrase "Nature, red in tooth and claw"
0:10:01 > 0:10:03first appeared in a poem by which writer?
0:10:05 > 0:10:06It's very descriptive.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10"Nature, red in tooth and claw."
0:10:11 > 0:10:13I'm going to go for Milton.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16Milton for "Nature, red in tooth and claw."
0:10:16 > 0:10:19Yeah, could easily have been, but it wasn't.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Not Milton.
0:10:21 > 0:10:22- Daphne?- Tennyson.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Tennyson is the answer.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28Your question, though, crucial one for you and of course for Tony.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31This will end the round for him if you get it correct.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Which novelist was appointed
0:10:33 > 0:10:36a Deputy Lieutenant of Edinburgh in 2007?
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Haven't heard this.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47I mean, if I was choosing one of them,
0:10:47 > 0:10:52then, I'd choose Ian Rankin, cos I LOVE his books.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54I've read them all.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56- So that's your answer?- Yes.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59So you mean, if it isn't Ian Rankin,
0:10:59 > 0:11:02your word out to the authorities in Edinburgh is, "Appoint him now".
0:11:02 > 0:11:04They've already done it. It is the right answer.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07Yes, Ian Rankin is correct,
0:11:07 > 0:11:11which means, as I was warning you there, Tony,
0:11:11 > 0:11:12nothing you can do about it, of course,
0:11:12 > 0:11:15after getting those first two questions wrong.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18It's all over for you, you're not in the final round, Daphne is.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Well, the game's see-sawed so far.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Window Box and the Eggheads have both lost one brain
0:11:26 > 0:11:28from the final round.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31Third subject, third head-to-head - Sport.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Who wants to play this one?
0:11:33 > 0:11:37- Paul or Jeff?- Paul? - It's got to be you, Paul.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40- Yeah, I think so.- Yeah, come on, that's what you came to do.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42You know more sport than anybody else, I think.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46- They're putting you in there for Sport.- Yeah.- And pick an Egghead.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Remember, Judith and Daphne, the women, have played,
0:11:48 > 0:11:50so one of the boys - CJ, Kevin or Pat.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54I'll take on CJ, seeing as he knows a lot about snooker.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Let's hope there's three snooker questions.- And that's your lot!
0:11:57 > 0:11:59- And tennis!- Oh, tennis!
0:11:59 > 0:12:02There's a lot else in these Sport categories, as in all categories.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05OK, then, it's going to be Paul and CJ.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Into the Question Room, both of you, please.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Paul, do you want to go first or second?
0:12:10 > 0:12:12I'd love to go first, please.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Good luck, Paul, first question is this -
0:12:17 > 0:12:20which piece of sporting equipment takes its name
0:12:20 > 0:12:23from the Spanish meaning "diving board"?
0:12:26 > 0:12:30Well, I'm just going to disregard shuttlecock and probably javelin.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33I think, probably, trampolining, as they practise on it
0:12:33 > 0:12:35for diving off the springboard. Trampoline.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Yeah, it's the right answer, but I never knew that.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40It's the Spanish for "diving board."
0:12:40 > 0:12:42So, a good start.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45And CJ, in which sport has Natalie du Toit
0:12:45 > 0:12:50represented South Africa at both the Olympic and Paralympic Games?
0:12:52 > 0:12:55I think she was the first Paralympian to actually compete
0:12:55 > 0:12:59against able-bodied people in swimming.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Swimming is correct. Well done, CJ.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05Good, solid starts from both players. And back to you, Paul.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08The golfer, KJ Choi, was born in which country?
0:13:10 > 0:13:14Well, he plays a lot on the American golf circuit,
0:13:14 > 0:13:16and I'm absolutely certain... I think it's South Korean.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18It's South Korea.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19South Korea, certain about that.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23Yeah, it's correct. Well done, Paul. Two out of two.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26CJ, which tennis player won the women's singles
0:13:26 > 0:13:29at the French Open in 2000?
0:13:33 > 0:13:35I think it's Mary Pierce, but let me just check.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Marion Bartoli's never won a Grand Slam.
0:13:37 > 0:13:41Amelie Mauresmo won Wimbledon.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45Now, she did win one other Grand Slam,
0:13:45 > 0:13:48but it wasn't as early as 2000. It's Mary Pierce.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Mary Pierce...
0:13:50 > 0:13:52is correct, yes. Two apiece.
0:13:52 > 0:13:53Paul, going very well.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Which boxer was the Olympic heavyweight champion
0:13:56 > 0:14:00in consecutive summer Games in Munich, Montreal and Moscow?
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Well, I think it's too late for Joe Frazier.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09I think he'd turned professional by then.
0:14:09 > 0:14:14So, I think, it's Te-leffo Stevenson.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Let's just call him Stevenson.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19It's the right answer, yes. Well done!
0:14:20 > 0:14:21You have three.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25CJ, in which year was football's Scottish Cup final
0:14:25 > 0:14:27played for the first time?
0:14:31 > 0:14:36Well, 1854 would be very early. That's before the FA Cup.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38So let's rule that one out.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45I think the FA Cup is about 1881,
0:14:45 > 0:14:50so on the basis that the Scottish one came after the English one...
0:14:51 > 0:14:53I don't know, but I'll guess 1894.
0:14:53 > 0:14:561894, first Scottish Cup final.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58No, it's 1874!
0:14:58 > 0:15:001874.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03It means, Paul, you're through to the final round.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:15:06 > 0:15:10Well, the balance now tips back towards Window Box.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Two Eggheads missing from the final round, one member of Window Box,
0:15:13 > 0:15:17and our last subject, our last head-to-head today, is Music.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20And who would like to play? There's two players available,
0:15:20 > 0:15:23- it's Graham or Jeff.- I think... - That's Graham.- Graham, is it?
0:15:23 > 0:15:27Yeah, I think it would have to be Graham. It's not my subject at all.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30And which Egghead would you like to take on - Pat or Kevin?
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- Pat.- Don't take any notice...
0:15:32 > 0:15:35No, don't. Don't take any notice of us.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38- On advice, I'll go for Pat, please. - OK, on advice.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Graham and Pat, then, on this one.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Into the Question Room, both of you, please.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46Well, Graham, would you like to go first or second?
0:15:46 > 0:15:47I'll go second, please.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53All right, then, Pat, that means you face the first set of questions,
0:15:53 > 0:15:57and the first one is - a chandelier crashing from the ceiling
0:15:57 > 0:16:00is a famous special effect in which stage musical?
0:16:04 > 0:16:06My first thought is The Phantom Of The Opera.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09It sounds like the place you would have a chandelier
0:16:09 > 0:16:12and it sounds like the dramatic sort of effect you might have.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14I'll go for The Phantom Of The Opera.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16It is Phantom Of The Opera, Pat.
0:16:16 > 0:16:17Phantom Of The Opera is correct.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21And Graham, what was the name of the song with which Jedward
0:16:21 > 0:16:24represented Ireland in the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest?
0:16:24 > 0:16:26I'm sure you're a great Jedward fan(!)
0:16:30 > 0:16:34I'm thinking it's going to be either Rouge or Lipstick. I can't remember.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37I can remember them doing it, but I obviously didn't...
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Did you watch it with your children?
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Well, no, I don't think I watched it.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44I think it was on, but I wasn't watching it, if you know what I mean?
0:16:44 > 0:16:49- Yeah.- For some reason, I'm thinking Lipstick, so I will go for Lipstick.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51OK, Lipstick, on in the background.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53It stuck in the brain, it's the right answer!
0:16:53 > 0:16:58Well done. OK, even-stevens after first question apiece.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02And Pat - which comedian had a UK top ten single in 1988
0:17:02 > 0:17:06with Stutter Rap as a member of Morris Minor And The Majors?
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Morris Minor And The Majors.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15I really don't know.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19It rings a faint bell, the track, but I'm not too sure who sang on it.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21I really don't know.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24I'll guess at Craig Charles. It's just a guess.
0:17:24 > 0:17:25OK, Craig Charles.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27It's not. It's incorrect.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30It's Tony Hawks.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Tony Hawks there with Stutter Rap, as Morris Minor And The Majors.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35Well, really a big chance, Graham.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Which children's television programme
0:17:37 > 0:17:41had a dedicated concert during the 2011 BBC Proms season?
0:17:45 > 0:17:48I think ChuckleVision... I think I'm going to discount that one.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51I don't think that it would be that.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54I don't think it would be Shaun the Sheep.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56I'm going to go for Horrible Histories.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58I just think it might be that one.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01OK, whittled it down, the other two didn't sound likely,
0:18:01 > 0:18:04and ended up with the right answer. Yes, Horrible Histories.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07And a lead, which means alarm bells ringing for Pat.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09You need to get this.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Which city is the setting for Richard Wagner's
0:18:11 > 0:18:15first successful opera, Rienzi?
0:18:18 > 0:18:23I think it was based on a real historical figure,
0:18:23 > 0:18:26and I think he's linked with Rome.
0:18:26 > 0:18:27- So I'll go for Rome.- Rome.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29It's correct, Pat. Still in it.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33Work to be done, then, Graham, if you are to get into the final round.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37What type of instrument is the Mexican vihuela?
0:18:37 > 0:18:40V-I-H-U-E-L-A.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43The vihuela, often seen in mariachi bands.
0:18:46 > 0:18:47Well...
0:18:47 > 0:18:51thinking of Mexican marching bands,
0:18:51 > 0:18:54what they would sound like and look like, I'm going to discount keyboard.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57So it's between wind and string.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00I'm going to go for wind. I'll keep that at wind.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04OK, a wind instrument. Yeah, the mariachi bands, wind or string.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- And it's string.- Ah-h!- Oh!
0:19:07 > 0:19:09Just picked the wrong one there.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11So, Pat survives by the skin of his teeth.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14We're in Sudden Death, anyone can win the round,
0:19:14 > 0:19:19and just to remind you, Graham, once again, we remove the choices here.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23And Pat, the actor Max Beesley and the pianist Peter Donohoe
0:19:23 > 0:19:26were both pupils at which music school
0:19:26 > 0:19:29situated in the centre of Manchester?
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Well, I can think of two Manchester music schools.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36There's the Royal Northern College of Music, and there's Chetham's.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Chetham's is bang in the centre of Manchester.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43I don't have any more specific information to go on,
0:19:43 > 0:19:45so I'll go for Chetham's.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47OK. Chetham's is...
0:19:47 > 0:19:50the right answer. Yes, well done. Chetham's School of Music.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53And you need to get this then, Graham.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Bit of a turnaround. Last time you were facing a question,
0:19:55 > 0:19:58it was a place in the final round. This is to stay in this round.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01Which Dusty Springfield song opens with the lines,
0:20:01 > 0:20:06"When I said I needed you/ You said you would always stay"?
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Oh, I'm trying to get it. Is it...?
0:20:08 > 0:20:11SPEAKS UNDER HIS BREATH
0:20:11 > 0:20:15- Is it You Don't Have To Say You Love Me?- Is that your answer?
0:20:15 > 0:20:18I think so, yeah, I think those lyrics are in the song.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21I think I'm going to go with that one.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24It's the right answer! You Don't Have To Say You Love Me. Correct.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Well done, Graham. Well pulled out there.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30And you've got to be careful with those song titles, haven't you?
0:20:30 > 0:20:34Pat, what is the name of the music lover who built an opera house
0:20:34 > 0:20:37at Glyndebourne, his home in East Sussex,
0:20:37 > 0:20:42and in 1934 founded an annual festival of opera there?
0:20:42 > 0:20:45I think it's something like John Christie,
0:20:45 > 0:20:47but I'll just have to mull over it.
0:20:49 > 0:20:50Is he Christie?
0:20:50 > 0:20:53John Christie.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55I think I'll have to go with that. John Christie.
0:20:55 > 0:20:59John Christie is the right answer, yes. Well done.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Graham, if you get this wrong, you've lost the head-to-head.
0:21:02 > 0:21:07In 1988, which singer won an Academy Award for Best Original Song
0:21:07 > 0:21:09for Let The River Run?
0:21:09 > 0:21:14Well, it's sort of my preferred era of music, really.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18But I can't remember that song, Let The River Run. Let The River Run.
0:21:20 > 0:21:25I'm just going to have a total shot at Tina Turner.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Tina Turner for Let The River Run.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Yeah, I could see that fitting.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32It's incorrect, though. Do you know, Pat?
0:21:32 > 0:21:35It's got something to do with the film, Working Girl, I think.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37It has. It was from the film Working Girl.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38It wasn't Lily Tomlin, was it?
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Carly Simon.
0:21:40 > 0:21:44Carly Simon, but not Tina Turner, which was the answer Graham gave us,
0:21:44 > 0:21:47which unfortunately, has cost you a place in the final round.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Bad luck, Graham, very, very close on several questions there.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54Particularly, of course, your mariachi band.
0:21:54 > 0:21:55But you're not playing in the final round.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:21:59 > 0:22:02Well, then, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06Time for the final round which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:22:08 > 0:22:10can't take part in this round,
0:22:10 > 0:22:12so Graham and Tony from Window Box,
0:22:12 > 0:22:17Judith and CJ from the Eggheads, would you leave the studio, please?
0:22:17 > 0:22:21So David, Paul and Jeff, you're playing to win Window Box £5,000.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25Pat, Kevin and Daphne are playing for something money cannot buy -
0:22:25 > 0:22:27the Eggheads' reputation.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29As usual, I ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:29 > 0:22:33The questions are, throughout this round, all General Knowledge,
0:22:33 > 0:22:34and you are allowed to confer.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36So, David, Paul and Jeff, the question is,
0:22:36 > 0:22:40are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three?
0:22:40 > 0:22:43And Window Box, do you want to go first or second?
0:22:43 > 0:22:46I think we'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Well, good luck, guys. First question to you -
0:22:52 > 0:22:55the term ro-ro refers to what type of transport?
0:22:58 > 0:23:01It's a ship, we have decided. Roll on, roll off.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04- That's it. Ship, yeah. - Ferry.- Ferries, yeah.
0:23:04 > 0:23:05Roll on, roll off. Correct.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Well done, and a good start.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Eggheads, according to the popular phrase originally used to control
0:23:10 > 0:23:14hysterical music fans, which artist "has left the building"?
0:23:16 > 0:23:19- Do you think it's Elvis(?)- I think I'll stick with Elvis, shall I?
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Yes, we get this all the time ourselves, of course,
0:23:21 > 0:23:23but it's Elvis. Anyway...
0:23:23 > 0:23:27"Elvis has left the building" is the right answer. Well done, Eggheads.
0:23:27 > 0:23:311-1, and back to you then, Window Box.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34In 2011, which character in The Archers
0:23:34 > 0:23:38was killed off by plunging from the roof of his stately home?
0:23:41 > 0:23:45I have a feeling it's Nigel Pargetter,
0:23:45 > 0:23:47but I wouldn't want to be...
0:23:47 > 0:23:51certain. Might have to put it down as a pure guess, I think.
0:23:51 > 0:23:57I don't listen to The Archers, but sometimes it just trickles through.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00And I think... if they've got a stately home,
0:24:00 > 0:24:06I think Nigel Pargetter, probably, is more likely to be the candidate.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09For falling off a stately home.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12- Is that your answer, then?- Yeah. - Going for Nigel Pargetter.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14It's the correct answer.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16Oh! Very good.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18OK, Eggheads, your second question.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22Fescue belongs to which group of plants?
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- It's grass.- Grass, yeah. That's a type of grass.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Is the right answer!
0:24:30 > 0:24:31Eggheads, 2-2.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34And your question, then, Window Box.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38Which European city was formerly known as Reval?
0:24:41 > 0:24:44- Ooh, boy!- Reval.- Minsk.- Minsk.
0:24:46 > 0:24:51Which one of those is likely to have changed their name?
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Well, all of them.
0:24:53 > 0:24:57- Tallinn looks as though it could be...- I would go for Tallinn.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00- Estonia. Capital of Estonia. - Yeah, changed its name.- Yes.
0:25:00 > 0:25:05Yes, Dermot, Minsk and Vilnius sound as though
0:25:05 > 0:25:09they've probably been there for quite a while under that name.
0:25:09 > 0:25:13Tallinn looks as thought it could've been made up quite recently.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17- OK.- So we'll go for Tallinn.- Could have been made up quite recently?
0:25:17 > 0:25:18Yeah.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21It's the right answer, well done! Got it!
0:25:21 > 0:25:25Eggheads, you need to get this.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28The Dagda is a father-figure in the mythology of which country?
0:25:32 > 0:25:33That's Ireland.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Is the right answer, Eggheads. Well done.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40OK, we go to Sudden Death as you know,
0:25:40 > 0:25:42as you've seen in those head-to-heads.
0:25:42 > 0:25:43Window Box, your question.
0:25:43 > 0:25:48The name of which US state ends with three consecutive vowels?
0:25:53 > 0:25:56Mississippi, Missouri...no.
0:25:57 > 0:25:58Good heavens!
0:25:58 > 0:26:02- (Carolina.)- Hawaii.- No.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05- Yeah. Haw-a-i-i.- Yes, yes.- Isn't it?
0:26:05 > 0:26:07- Yes.- Yeah.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10After due consideration,
0:26:10 > 0:26:14we've decided that the only one we can think of is Hawaii.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17And I like the way you took to count up the vowels.
0:26:17 > 0:26:18You're going "Haw-a-i-i."
0:26:18 > 0:26:21- Yeah, of course!- It's the right answer, yes. Of course it is.
0:26:21 > 0:26:25When you think of it, Hawaii, three consecutive vowels on the end.
0:26:25 > 0:26:30And Eggheads, then, the phrases ante meridiem and post meridiem
0:26:30 > 0:26:32originated in which language?
0:26:32 > 0:26:36- Sounds like Latin.- I thought it was Latin.- Latin?- Yeah.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Latin.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40They are of course AM and PM.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42Latin is the right answer. Well done, Eggheads.
0:26:42 > 0:26:46And back to you, guys. Well, this is high-quality stuff.
0:26:46 > 0:26:51The magician and illusionist born Stephen Frayne came to fame
0:26:51 > 0:26:53performing under what name?
0:26:53 > 0:26:56- I think it's Harry Houdini. - You think so?- I'm certain.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59- It's not anybody earlier?- No.
0:26:59 > 0:27:03David is certain... I'm going to lay this one on David, cos I don't know.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05..that it's Harry Houdini.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Harry Houdini, Stephen Frayne.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11It's incorrect. It's not Houdini. No.
0:27:11 > 0:27:12Eggheads, do you know?
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Erm, is it Dynamo?
0:27:15 > 0:27:18- It is Dynamo, yes.- Well done.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21Well, the first chance occurring in the game to the Eggheads,
0:27:21 > 0:27:24as we're well into Sudden Death. Eggheads, in The Iliad,
0:27:24 > 0:27:27which character quarrels with Agamemnon
0:27:27 > 0:27:29over the slave girl Briseis,
0:27:29 > 0:27:33and withdraws from the fighting to sulk in his tent?
0:27:33 > 0:27:36- Achilles.- Achilles, yeah?- Uh-huh. - It's Achilles.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40Achilles is the right answer. Eggheads, you've won.
0:27:47 > 0:27:48What a close-fought game that was!
0:27:48 > 0:27:54Just found your Achilles' heal there with Dynamo, but great quizzing.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57A real tribute to the quality of the quiz there in the Boot and Shoe pub.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00Thank you very much indeed, Window Box, for playing against us.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04I don't think ANYONE will ever try and take your seats ever again!
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Maybe the Eggheads could,
0:28:06 > 0:28:09just to sit down for a moment or two when they come along.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13Well, thank you very much indeed for taking on the Eggheads today. Not to be, though, on the day.
0:28:13 > 0:28:17The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them and still reign supreme over quizland.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £5,000.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22That means the money rolls over to the next show.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:26 > 0:28:29Do join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:29 > 0:28:32have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. £6,000 says they don't.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34Until then, goodbye.
