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 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Welcome to Eggheads,
0:00:24 > 0:00:27the show where a team of five quiz challenges 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 > 0:00:38are The Young Farmers, who know one another through their involvement
0:00:38 > 0:00:42with the Dumfries and Galloway Young Farmers' Association.
0:00:42 > 0:00:43Let's meet them.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46Hi, I'm Ross. I'm 23, and I'm a quantity surveyor.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50Hi, my name's Drew. I'm 31, and I'm a beef and sheep farmer.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Hi, my name's Louise. I'm 28, and I'm a podiatrist.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, my name's Dave. I'm 25, and I'm a joiner.
0:00:57 > 0:01:02Hi, my name's Allan. I'm 27, and I'm an agricultural contractor.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Hello there, young farmers.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Do you do any quizzing in the association?
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Yeah, we certainly do. We try, we have a national quiz every year.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11We try and bring it back down to club level
0:01:11 > 0:01:13and have as many quizzes as we can.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15I know a couple of teams, myself and Louise
0:01:15 > 0:01:18have both made up a quiz recently.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21- We get a bit of quizzing experience through Young Farmers.- Good stuff.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Do you do any other competitions with the Young Farmers?
0:01:24 > 0:01:27I mean, sheepdogs, hay bales, things like that?
0:01:27 > 0:01:31Absolutely, everything, we've done it somewhere along the line, yeah.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34There's hundreds of competitions, from speechmaking competitions,
0:01:34 > 0:01:38to cattle dressing competitions where you've got to doll up a sheep.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40- Cattle dressing? - Cattle dressing, yes.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42Not as literal as it sounds!
0:01:42 > 0:01:45- You mean a sheep in fancy dress? - Not quite, no.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47- Dolled up, a wee haircut here and there.- Oh, I see.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50There's hundreds of competitions.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- Ploughing?- Ploughing matches. - I like those.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Root shows, where you show off what you've been growing over the year.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- Right, OK, glad you explained that. - Oh, yes.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02Yeah, there's everything. And if there's a new one comes along,
0:02:02 > 0:02:05- we'll be first to try it.- Tell you what, if this doesn't go well,
0:02:05 > 0:02:08we'll have a root show against the Eggheads.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11That's our next challenge. DERMOT CHUCKLES
0:02:11 > 0:02:15Now, everyday, there's £1,000 worth of cash
0:02:15 > 0:02:16up for grabs for our challengers.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18If they failed to defeat the Eggheads,
0:02:18 > 0:02:20the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23So, Young Farmers, the challengers actually won the last game,
0:02:23 > 0:02:24That proves it can be done.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28But it means £1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:28 > 0:02:32Let's kick off then, and our first head-to-head is Sport.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36Plenty of you like your sports, who wants to play this?
0:02:36 > 0:02:40- Ross? Ross, I think you should. - Yes. And take on maybe Judith?- Yep.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43I think it's going to be myself for that,
0:02:43 > 0:02:45against my favourite Egghead, Judith.
0:02:45 > 0:02:49Ah, you see, Judith, does that soften the blow a bit?
0:02:49 > 0:02:52No, it doesn't. It makes no difference.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Let's have Ross and Judith into the Question Room,
0:02:55 > 0:02:58just to make sure you can't confer.
0:02:58 > 0:02:59Ross, just before we start,
0:02:59 > 0:03:02I want to continue our discussion about root vegetables.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04You're a turnip champion, aren't you?
0:03:04 > 0:03:06I am, three years in a row,
0:03:06 > 0:03:08won my club level heaviest turnip competition.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Often, a bit of a joke.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13But it's turned into a rather coveted prize.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Absolutely.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17So what size were these turnips? Did they get bigger every year?
0:03:17 > 0:03:21They didn't, actually. They were mostly in proportion,
0:03:21 > 0:03:23probably about that size. A pretty good showing, so they were.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26We could talk about this all day long, I'm loving it.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29But we do have to ask some questions, Ross.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31It's Sport, would you like to go first or second?
0:03:31 > 0:03:34I think I'll be a gentleman and let the lady go first,
0:03:34 > 0:03:36I'll take second, please.
0:03:38 > 0:03:39Judith, he's buttering you up there.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41- He is.- "Favourite Egghead."
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Gallant as well, letting you start. Here's your question, Judith.
0:03:45 > 0:03:50Ken Bates took over which football team in 1982?
0:03:52 > 0:03:56Curiously enough, I think I know that, I think it's Chelsea.
0:03:56 > 0:03:57It right!
0:03:57 > 0:03:59- SHE LAUGHS - It's a miracle.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01You know a bit about Chelsea, don't you?
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- You go to Chelsea, not the football. - Not the football.- But the area.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07The area, yes.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Maybe that's how you know that. OK.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Ken Bates taking over Chelsea in 1982.
0:04:13 > 0:04:14First question, Ross.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18Who was the British flat racing champion jockey six times
0:04:18 > 0:04:22between 1997 and 2003.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29OK, yeah, horseracing's not exactly my greatest sport,
0:04:29 > 0:04:32I'd have loved the last one, being a Chelsea fan.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35- Oh no.- But, let me think, see if I can...
0:04:35 > 0:04:38I know Frankie, he's won a fair bit in his time.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41So has Kieren.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43I think I'm going to have to plump,
0:04:43 > 0:04:47just because I know that he's won plenty, for Frankie Dettori.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49OK, Frankie Dettori. Champion jockey.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53He wins plenty, but doesn't win the Championship very often, does he?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56It's Kieren Fallon. Kieron Fallon,
0:04:56 > 0:04:59six times champion jockey in that period.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02So, Judith, well, you can go 2-0 up if you get this.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04What name was given to the dance
0:05:04 > 0:05:06performed by the England cricket squad
0:05:06 > 0:05:10during the 2010-11 Ashes tour in Australia?
0:05:13 > 0:05:16If it's to do with cricket,
0:05:16 > 0:05:20hedges don't really come onto pitches that much.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22So I'm hoping it's either Lawn Mower or Sprinkler.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26I think The Lawn Mower sounds a bit more macho than The Sprinkler,
0:05:26 > 0:05:28so I'm going to do The Lawn Mower.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30- You're going to do it now? - No, I'm not,
0:05:30 > 0:05:32I don't know what it looks like.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36It probably is a dance, but it was The Sprinkler.
0:05:36 > 0:05:37- Oh no!- But they did perform.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40- HE LAUGHS - Like Judith, I'm a little mystified.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42I mean, you don't have to demonstrate it,
0:05:42 > 0:05:44but what did it involve them doing?
0:05:44 > 0:05:47- No idea?- Something along the lines of that, was it not, Dermot?
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Something like that.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51And then they go like that.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53- Oh, you saw it?- Something like that. I don't know why I know that.
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Brilliant, Ross. Loving it.
0:05:57 > 0:06:02- You can do that down at the next Young Farmers meeting.- Definitely.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04- HE LAUGHS - The sprinkler.
0:06:04 > 0:06:05Afraid I can't give you a point for that.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08- I wish I'd picked the first ones now. - That's right,
0:06:08 > 0:06:10you would have had two out of two.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12Let's get you off the mark here.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15It will be will square if you get this correct.
0:06:15 > 0:06:16Pastor Maldonado,
0:06:16 > 0:06:20who made his Formula One debut in 2011, was born in which country?
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Thankfully, I am a Formula One fan.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28And I know who Pastor Maldonado was.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30If you'd told me what team he was driving for,
0:06:30 > 0:06:32I'd have got that in a second.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34But what country he's from, I'm not too sure,
0:06:34 > 0:06:36I'm just trying to think through.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38I'm pretty sure it's not Spain
0:06:38 > 0:06:40because I know Fernando Alonso is a big Spain man.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43He's famed for being a good Spanish man.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46So it's between Venezuelan and Mexico.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49It's definitely between the two, and I'm going to plump for Mexico.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52And the team in question, you said you know the team?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Yeah, it's Williams he drives for.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Yeah, Williams is right. But Mexico isn't.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59- Ah, no!- It is Venezuela.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01You were down to the 50-50.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03But picked the wrong one. Well...
0:07:03 > 0:07:08It means Judith has a chance here to end the round.
0:07:08 > 0:07:15Judith, which basketball team won its first NBA title in June 2011?
0:07:19 > 0:07:25I hadn't got as far as basketball in my revision of 2011, annoyingly.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27But is it on the list?
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Yes, it's on a list, somewhere!
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Um. Oh, dear me.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Um, I think I might say Toronto Raptors.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- OK, the Toronto Raptors.- Yep.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39All basketball teams, presumably.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- Yes.- Yes.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43- It's the Mavericks.- Oh. - The Dallas Mavericks.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47I hoped Toronto. It stood out.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49But your revision hadn't got you up to there.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Well, last chance, Ross.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55If you get on the board here, we go into Sudden Death.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58And then, obviously, you've got every chance.
0:07:58 > 0:07:59But you need to get this.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02At the 1960 Rome Olympics,
0:08:02 > 0:08:05the Australian athlete Herb Elliot won gold,
0:08:05 > 0:08:09and set a new world record in which track event?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Right, 1960. Er...
0:08:14 > 0:08:19I'm not sure, Dermot, but I think I'm going to go for 1500 metres.
0:08:19 > 0:08:201500 metres?
0:08:20 > 0:08:24As I say, a very, very last chance to stay in it.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27- Skin of the teeth? - You are in! It's the right answer.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30Phew!
0:08:30 > 0:08:32Just held on there.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Let's see if your fortunes improve,
0:08:34 > 0:08:37as we change into the Sudden Death phase.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40Judith knows all about that. It will be new for you, Ross.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43We take away those choices that you've worked so well with.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45HE CHUCKLES
0:08:45 > 0:08:49- It might get better for you, actually.- I hope so.- We do too.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53Judith, on which continent did Muhammed Ali and George Foreman's
0:08:53 > 0:08:561974 Rumble in the Jungle bout take place?
0:08:56 > 0:09:00I always thought that was Africa.
0:09:00 > 0:09:01That's all we need.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Africa is correct.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05You would have known that, I guess, Ross, would you?
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Yeah, I think I could have got that one.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09I'm wishing I'd picked the first batch,
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- I'd be sailing through. - You would have been through.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13It is the way the questions have fallen.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16You need this to stay in again.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19In which decade did Virginia Wade
0:09:19 > 0:09:22win her first Grand Slam singles title?
0:09:22 > 0:09:25I'm not sure. Sport's not been my strongest category today.
0:09:25 > 0:09:26But I'm going to go,
0:09:26 > 0:09:29I'll go for the '60s, 1960s.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33- OK.- I don't know, I'm not even sure what year.
0:09:33 > 0:09:34OK, well, we don't need the year.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Same with Judith, we didn't need the country, just the continent.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39We just need the decade from you. And you've got it!
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- Ah.- It is correct, 1960s.- Holding on.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Holding on there, and hoping for something
0:09:45 > 0:09:46that really suits you.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47And Judith. In 1967.
0:09:47 > 0:09:53which US city hosted the very first Superbowl?
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Erm.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Los Angeles.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00- It's the right answer.- Gosh.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02OK, you need to get this, Ross.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05What was the first name of Denis Compton's older brother,
0:10:05 > 0:10:09who played first-class cricket for Middlesex for 19 seasons,
0:10:09 > 0:10:13and became England's oldest soccer debutante's in 1950,
0:10:13 > 0:10:14at the age of 38?
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Cricket's not my strong point.
0:10:16 > 0:10:22Being a Scotsman, I don't think I'm allowed to like cricket
0:10:22 > 0:10:26I think it's in the rules somewhere! DERMOT CHUCKLES
0:10:26 > 0:10:28So this is going to be a pure guess. Out of the sky.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Ian.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Absolutely no idea.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Ian?- Yeah. I think I could be bowing out now.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38It's a bit of a football question as well because,
0:10:38 > 0:10:43in those days, Arsenal player, I think, for a while?
0:10:43 > 0:10:46It's Leslie. Leslie Compton.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Crikey. You've fought to stay in there,
0:10:48 > 0:10:50but the questions, if you'd had the first questions.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54- I'd have been flying.- You'd have been through. It's the way they come.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57OK, Ross, no place for you in the final round. You're there, Judith.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Well, as it stands after one round,
0:11:02 > 0:11:05we've lost our turn champion, Ross, from the final round.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08the Eggheads all still there. Let's play head to head number two now.
0:11:08 > 0:11:12This is Film and Television. Who'd like to play this,
0:11:12 > 0:11:14from the Young Farmers, film and television?
0:11:14 > 0:11:16- You were confident the last time?- I'll go.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Who are you going to play against?
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Take your pick.
0:11:20 > 0:11:21I'll go Daphne.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24OK, we'll go for Drew against Daphne, please.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26OK, let's confirm that, Drew and Daphne,
0:11:26 > 0:11:27contesting Film and Television.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Into the Question Room, both of you, please.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33Drew. Film and Television. Do you want to go first or second?
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Can I go first, please?
0:11:37 > 0:11:39And your question is this, Drew.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42The Hawaii-born actor Jason Momoa
0:11:42 > 0:11:46played which hero in a 2011 action movie?
0:11:49 > 0:11:50I've not heard of him,
0:11:50 > 0:11:54but I know the actors who played Spider-Man and the Green Lantern,
0:11:54 > 0:11:56so I think the answer's Conan the Barbarian.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59You eliminated the other two, and left with the right answer.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Well done, Drew. Good start.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Daphne, in EastEnders,
0:12:03 > 0:12:08which character did Kathy Beale marry, in 1995?
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Um...
0:12:13 > 0:12:15I never saw it.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19Um, I started watching it in the '80s.
0:12:19 > 0:12:24I watched the first couple of years, but...
0:12:24 > 0:12:25Oh, dear.
0:12:25 > 0:12:29Kathy? Um...
0:12:29 > 0:12:31- Simon Wicks.- Simon Wicks. OK.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- So you weren't watching in the mid-90s?- No.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37- Evidently, it's the wrong answer. - Oh, right.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39It's Phil Mitchell.
0:12:39 > 0:12:44- Oh, right, OK. Well, proves I wasn't watching.- It does. Phil Mitchell.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46This is looking even better for you,
0:12:46 > 0:12:49so a good start in terms of your own question, Daphne not getting that.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51You've got a chance for a 2-0 lead, Drew.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54In 2010, Arthur Darvill
0:12:54 > 0:12:58made his debut in Doctor Who, playing which character?
0:13:01 > 0:13:04I think he plays, he's with the new Doctor,
0:13:04 > 0:13:07so I think his character's Rory, so it's Rory Williams.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09It is! That is correct, Rory Williams.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12And you're "roaring" into a lead. 2-0.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Daphne goes out if she doesn't get this one.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18Daphne, in the 1970s TV mini series, Jesus of Nazareth,
0:13:18 > 0:13:20which role did Michael York play?
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Didn't see that either.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31I can't say see him playing Herod. Erm.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Oh, dear.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38Can I imagine Michael, him with a beard?
0:13:38 > 0:13:40I'll say Judas Iscariot.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42- Judith Iscariot?- Yes.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45- It's wrong!- Oh, I thought it was.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47It's John the Baptist.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Look at that! After four questions, you're through, Drew.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Two incorrect from Daphne, both yours correct.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55You're playing in the final round.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Would you please come back and join your teams?
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Well, much better for the Young Farmers.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02I like the way Drew came back into the studio from the Question Room
0:14:02 > 0:14:05- and went, "That's how you do it!! - THEY LAUGH
0:14:05 > 0:14:06Well done, Drew.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10As it stands, both teams have lost one brain from the final round.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Third subject today is Politics. Who'd like to play?
0:14:12 > 0:14:15You seem to be working down the team from the top there.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16It's Louise, Dave or Allan.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Who do you want to take on?
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Who do we think's best?
0:14:20 > 0:14:23- They're all really quite good at it. - Take your pick really.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25- Barry?- Barry, OK.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28We're going to go Allan against Barry, please.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Allan against Barry, on Politics. You know where to go.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34It's the Question Room for you both, please.
0:14:34 > 0:14:35Allan.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Do you want first or second?
0:14:37 > 0:14:39I think I should go first.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Decided to kick off with this question then, Allan.
0:14:45 > 0:14:46Who was Prime Minister
0:14:46 > 0:14:50at the time of the Iranian Embassy siege in London?
0:14:53 > 0:14:57Well, I'm not 100% sure.
0:14:57 > 0:15:02It's between two. I know it's definitely not John Major.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Yeah, I think we'll go with Margaret Thatcher.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07OK, well, this is all about dates.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09And well before your time. Many of us saw it on television.
0:15:09 > 0:15:14Obviously, you didn't. You've maybe seen the pictures subsequently.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16It is Margaret Thatcher, it's the right answer.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18And the year, Eggheads?
0:15:18 > 0:15:22- 1980.- 1980. For the Iranian Embassy siege.
0:15:22 > 0:15:27So, just into the first year of Margaret Thatcher's premiership,
0:15:27 > 0:15:29having ousted James Callaghan in '79.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32So, your first question then, Barry.
0:15:32 > 0:15:38For what does the letter T stand in the acronym NEET, N-E-E-T,
0:15:38 > 0:15:40used to refer to young people.
0:15:43 > 0:15:47I believe it stands for not in education, employment or training,
0:15:47 > 0:15:49so the T stands for training.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51You've got it all, that's the right answer,
0:15:51 > 0:15:53Training is what we wanted to hear. And we did.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57OK, Allan. In the House of Commons, what is another name
0:15:57 > 0:16:00for Opposition Days, the 20 days per session
0:16:00 > 0:16:03on which the Opposition can control the subject for debate?
0:16:08 > 0:16:12Well, again, I'm not too sure, to be honest.
0:16:12 > 0:16:17I should maybe have swotted up a bit more on politics. Erm.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20To be honest, Amendment Days sounds right to me,
0:16:20 > 0:16:21so I think we'll go with that.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Amendment Days, those 20 days per session
0:16:24 > 0:16:27on which the Opposition can control the debate.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31They are Allotted Days. Allotted Days.
0:16:31 > 0:16:37OK. Well, see what Barry does with number two question for him.
0:16:37 > 0:16:42Prior to becoming Chief Secretary to the Treasury in May 2010,
0:16:42 > 0:16:46the Lib Dem MP Danny Alexander had a very brief tenure
0:16:46 > 0:16:48as Secretary of State for where?
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Gosh, how quickly this passes one by.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57I can't remember.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Danny Alexander.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Well, on the very loose basis that his hair is ginger,
0:17:03 > 0:17:06- I'll say Secretary of State for Scotland!- Right.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10And sits for a Scottish seat, and is Scottish.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Yes, Scotland is correct.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14HE LAUGHS
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Yes.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19That was all to do with David Laws' resignation
0:17:19 > 0:17:22early on in the administration.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26OK, it means, Allan, I'm sure you knew that, you need to get this.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29In 1972, while still a student there,
0:17:29 > 0:17:33Gordon Brown took up which post at the University of Edinburgh?
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Again, not too sure.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be Rector, though.
0:17:41 > 0:17:47I don't' think you'd take that up when you were a student. Erm.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51I think we'll guess again, and we'll go with Bursar.
0:17:51 > 0:17:56Bursar, for Gordon Brown. I see, bursar and money, and things like.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59And his subsequent career, long-time Chancellor, of course.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02- No, it's not, it is Rector.- Oh.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05He was Rector of Edinburgh University.
0:18:05 > 0:18:10Which means, round over, Barry's through. Bad luck, Allan.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:18:13 > 0:18:14HE CHUCKLES
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Allan, following on from Drew said, "That's NOT how you do it."
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Bad luck, Allan.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22As it stands, the Young Farmers have lost two from the final round.
0:18:22 > 0:18:23The Eggheads have lost one.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26We approach our last subject before that final round,
0:18:26 > 0:18:28and this is Geography.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30And it's Louise or Dave to play.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Do you want to go for it?
0:18:32 > 0:18:35I'm not.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37- I'll go. - Dave, who do you want? Chris?
0:18:37 > 0:18:39- What do you reckon, Dave, who do you fancy?- Pat.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Pat.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43We're going to put in Dave against Pat, please.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45OK, it's Geography, and Dave and Pat.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49Could I ask you both please to go to the Question Room?
0:18:49 > 0:18:52All right then, Dave, taking on Pat.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54World quiz champion there.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Do you want to go first or second?
0:18:56 > 0:18:58I think I'll go first.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Good luck, Dave, it's Geography. First question for you.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07What French word is used to refer to a coastal road,
0:19:07 > 0:19:11especially one built into the face of a cliff?
0:19:14 > 0:19:18Well, I don't know that one.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Corsage is the only one word I've heard of those three,
0:19:20 > 0:19:25and I'm pretty sure that's not to do with roads.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28It's going to have to be a guess between the other two.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31And I think I'd better go for Corniche.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35Thankfully, it's the right answer, yes. Corniche.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37OK, Pat,
0:19:37 > 0:19:40in which English county is the town of Gravesend?
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Er.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46Famous as the resting place of Pocahontas.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49It's in Kent.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52You do learn such wonderful irrelevant facts.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55They may be relevant, you never know.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57The resting place of Pocahontas, I see.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59It's the right answer, Gravesend in Kent.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02And, back to you, Dave.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05What is the name of the US city on the Williamette River
0:20:05 > 0:20:08that is home to the University of Oregon?
0:20:12 > 0:20:16Erm, again, not sure on this one.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20It's going to have to be a guess again.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24I have heard of Eugene, so I'm going to go with Eugene.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Eugene, Oregon, it's the right answer.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Yes, well done. And Eggheads, not a ridiculous question,
0:20:29 > 0:20:32because those other names are American towns as well.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- Gary's Indiana. I don't know where Otis is.- All right, Pat.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40Potamology is the scientific study of what geographical features?
0:20:43 > 0:20:45I'm not entirely sure.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Er, I have a hint hunch it's Rivers,
0:20:48 > 0:20:50I'm just thinking,
0:20:50 > 0:20:54of those three, I think I'll go with Rivers.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Rivers for potamology, is he right, Eggheads?
0:20:56 > 0:20:58- Yes.- Yep.- Hippo-potamus.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01- Oh, I see. Hippopotamus, river horse.- Yes, yes.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Is the right answer, yes, rivers, Pat.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05So it's all square. Going well there, Dave.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Get this, and really put the pressure on Pat, then.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Inaccessible Island in the South Atlantic
0:21:11 > 0:21:13is part of the overseas territory of which country?
0:21:17 > 0:21:22Well, I know the UK has a lot of dependencies in the South Atlantic,
0:21:22 > 0:21:24so I'm going to go with UK.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28UK, well done. Yeah, of course. The Falklands amongst them.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30UK is correct. And, Pat,
0:21:30 > 0:21:35Bandung is one of the largest cities in which country?
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Gave its name to the big conference
0:21:40 > 0:21:43that founded the Non-Aligned movement back, I think, in the '50s.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48- And it's in Indonesia.- Indonesia.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51I had a feeling we were going to Sudden Death. We are.
0:21:51 > 0:21:52It's the right answer. All square.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Well played, Dave. Keep it up.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Your Sudden Death question, then, is this.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01Viti Levu and Vanuva Levu are the two major islands
0:22:01 > 0:22:03of which country in the South Pacific?
0:22:03 > 0:22:06I have heard the names. Erm...
0:22:09 > 0:22:12..and I'm fairly sure that's Fiji.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- It is Fiji! - THEY APPLAUD
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Dave! I see why you're playing this round!
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Is he like this in the quiz?
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Oh, yeah, he's good. He's good.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24Give him any capital cities or stuff like that, he's on it.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Oh, right!
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Well, will we sort out a winner?
0:22:28 > 0:22:32Pat, DZ is the international car registration code
0:22:32 > 0:22:34for which African country?
0:22:34 > 0:22:36Hmmm...
0:22:39 > 0:22:40..I should know this.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43I have a feeling I'm not going to get it, though.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45DZ...
0:22:45 > 0:22:48There's a voice in my head saying it's Tunisia.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50It doesn't sound very sensible to me,
0:22:50 > 0:22:52but seeing as I'm having trouble
0:22:52 > 0:22:55coming up with any better candidate...
0:22:55 > 0:22:57One last think. DZ...
0:22:57 > 0:22:59No, I just...
0:22:59 > 0:23:02I'll go with Tunisia, with very little hope of being correct.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05OK, Tunisia. And what a battle royal this has been.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08Dave, playing Pat there, you know about his Millionaire win,
0:23:08 > 0:23:10and world quiz Championships and things like that.
0:23:10 > 0:23:15- Yep.- He also has never lost at geography in regular Eggheads.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18You've lost in a celebrity edition against Matthew Pinsent.
0:23:18 > 0:23:19Well, he has now.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22- THEY APPLAUD - Never lost in geography.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24It's not. But you were very close.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Daphne's itching to tell me the answer.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27- You WERE close.- Algeria.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30- It's Algeria. And why DZ, pray? - I don't know.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Well, it's from Dzayer,
0:23:32 > 0:23:36the local name for Algeria. D-Z-A-Y-E-R.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Close, Pat, but no place in the final round.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40It goes to Dave.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Would you both please come back and join your teams.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46So, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:23:46 > 0:23:50It's time for the final round, and what a final round it may be.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52And this, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54But, I'm afraid, those of you who lost your head-to-heads,
0:23:54 > 0:23:56won't be allowed to take part.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59So we lose Ross and Allan from the Young Farmers,
0:23:59 > 0:24:02and Daphne and Pat from the Eggheads.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03Please leave the studio.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Well, Drew, Louise, and Dave,
0:24:07 > 0:24:09you're playing to win the Young Farmers £1,000.
0:24:09 > 0:24:10Chris, Barry, and Judith,
0:24:10 > 0:24:13you're playing for something which money can't buy.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15It's the Eggheads' reputation.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17As usual, I ask each team three questions in turn.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20This time, the questions are all general knowledge,
0:24:20 > 0:24:22and you are allowed to confer.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24So Drew, Louise, and Dave, the question is,
0:24:24 > 0:24:27are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three?
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Do you want to go first or second?
0:24:29 > 0:24:30I think we'll go first.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36Well, they're all general knowledge and good luck with them.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37First question.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41Obtaining something on hire purchase is known, colloquially,
0:24:41 > 0:24:42as buying it on the what?
0:24:45 > 0:24:47I'd say never-never.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49I think it's never-never as well.
0:24:49 > 0:24:50- Always paying it off.- Yes.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52- Never-never.- Never-never.
0:24:52 > 0:24:53It's the right answer, yes.
0:24:53 > 0:24:57Buying it on hire purchase, on the never-never.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01And, Eggheads, the word libation is often used as a slang term for what?
0:25:04 > 0:25:07- Yep. It's alcoholic drink, Dermot.- It is, yes.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09I was trying to think of something witty to say!
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Right answer will do!
0:25:11 > 0:25:13OK, Young Farmers.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17The 1988 musical film, It Couldn't Happen Here,
0:25:17 > 0:25:19stars and features the songs of which group?
0:25:23 > 0:25:26- I don't actually know it. - I don't know that one.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Well, Wet Wet Wet, are they not a bit more modern?
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Pet Shop Boys were back then, but...
0:25:31 > 0:25:33I would err for the Pet Shop Boys, only because of the date.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36- But, I don't know. - Is Duran Duran in earlier than that?
0:25:36 > 0:25:38I thought they had some kind of musical thing.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41- Do you want to go for the Pet Shop Boys?- I've no idea.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44It's between Pet Shop Boys and Duran Duran, so...
0:25:44 > 0:25:45You both thought Duran Duran.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48Well, initially, but that doesn't necessarily mean its right.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51I've never heard of it before. My instinct's Duran Duran, though.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54- Will we go with that? - Happy with that?- Yeah, go for it.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57We'll go with Duran Duran.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00Duran Duran, for It Couldn't Happen Here, in 1988.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04It's the other one you were thinking of.
0:26:04 > 0:26:05- Oh!- It is the Pet Shop Boys.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11And, Eggheads, question number two.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14CCTV is the main state television channel in which country?
0:26:18 > 0:26:19What could it stand for?
0:26:19 > 0:26:22I've got an inkling it might be Chinese for some reason.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25What could it stand for, CCTV?
0:26:26 > 0:26:28It's not Chile.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Chile's a bit too obscure.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33Or Canada, because they're all commercial stations.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37- So it's not Canada?- It just rings a bell with me for China.
0:26:37 > 0:26:38Shall we go with China?
0:26:38 > 0:26:41- If we don't think it's Chile. - No, I don't think it's Chile.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43And it's definitely not Canada.
0:26:43 > 0:26:44We don't think it's Canada.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46China, on balance.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48Yeah, we'll go for China, Dermot.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51China, on balance. Not sure.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54It is China Central Television, CCTV.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56It's the right answer.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Oh, dear. OK, well, Young Farmers,
0:26:58 > 0:27:01you're still in it. Got to get this one, though.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03What name was given to the State Planning Commission
0:27:03 > 0:27:05of the Soviet Union?
0:27:09 > 0:27:11I should know this one!
0:27:11 > 0:27:13THEY LAUGH
0:27:13 > 0:27:16I haven't heard of the others, but Gosplan sounds familiar.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19Komsplan just sounds too much like Communist.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23I'd rule it out, because they wouldn't be advertising that.
0:27:23 > 0:27:28The other one, it's too much like Soviet.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31I thought it would have been Komsplan.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33Is that what your gut is telling you?
0:27:33 > 0:27:36Well, I got the last one wrong, so do you want to go with..?
0:27:36 > 0:27:40- Building for the comrades. - Do you want to go with that one?
0:27:40 > 0:27:42I don't know. But I would err towards Komsplan.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45It's the easiest one to say!
0:27:45 > 0:27:46We'll go Komsplan.
0:27:46 > 0:27:50Komsplan, for the State Planning Commission of the Soviet Union,
0:27:50 > 0:27:51to stay in the game.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53I'm afraid it's over.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55- It's Gosplan.- Oh, dear! - Which means, Eggheads, you've won.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03Well, bad luck, Young Farmers, not to be in the final round there.
0:28:03 > 0:28:07But some great head-to-heads, some great quizzing, and some great chat.
0:28:07 > 0:28:11We've learned so much about root vegetables and sheep dressing,
0:28:11 > 0:28:13and we forgot the round we were going to have.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15We're going to have a dancing round next,
0:28:15 > 0:28:18while Ross does his sprinkler,
0:28:18 > 0:28:21and Chris will do his Peter Crouch robot.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Ha-ha! Thank you very much for that, Ross, to sign off!
0:28:24 > 0:28:27But the Eggheads have done what comes naturally,
0:28:27 > 0:28:29and they reign supreme over Quiz Land again.
0:28:29 > 0:28:31I'm afraid you won't be going home with £1,000,
0:28:31 > 0:28:34and that means the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36Eggheads, congratulations.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38Do join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:38 > 0:28:40have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43£2,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
