0:00:04 > 0:00:09These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:11 > 0:00:16arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:26 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33They are the Eggheads.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35And taking on the might of our quiz Goliaths today are...

0:00:36 > 0:00:39Now, this team all work for the Merseyside Police force,

0:00:39 > 0:00:43and when work allows, chuck the odd quiz question around the office.

0:00:43 > 0:00:44Let's meet them.

0:00:44 > 0:00:48Hi, my name's Ian, I'm 27, and I'm a detention officer.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50Hello, I'm Steve, I'm 46, and I'm a police officer.

0:00:50 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Brian, I'm 41, and I'm a police officer.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Glen, I'm 25, and I am a detention officer.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Phil, I'm 40, and I'm a police officer.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02Welcome to you, Clueless. I hope you're not!

0:01:02 > 0:01:04THEY LAUGH

0:01:04 > 0:01:07So, the odd quiz question. No formal quizzing then, Ian,

0:01:07 > 0:01:09but you pick things up from the TV and the papers

0:01:09 > 0:01:11and throw questions at each other?

0:01:11 > 0:01:15We're constantly on different shifts, so whenever we just sort of pass over

0:01:15 > 0:01:17and see each other, we always throw some football trivia about,

0:01:17 > 0:01:21- or the odd question here or there. It's a bit of banter, really.- Yeah.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23Cos obviously, we're overlapping all the time.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25We very rarely get all the same time off together.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27So, no formal preparation for this.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31We'll find out, shall we?

0:01:31 > 0:01:33But let me tell you about what's been going on up to this point.

0:01:33 > 0:01:36Every day, there's £1,000 up-for-grabs for our challengers,

0:01:36 > 0:01:39however, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:01:39 > 0:01:41the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44So, Clueless, the Eggheads have won the last two games,

0:01:44 > 0:01:47and that means £3,000 says you can't beat them.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50So, let's play our first head-to-head battle.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53This one is Film & Television, which I suspect some of you might like.

0:01:53 > 0:01:54Film & Television,

0:01:54 > 0:01:57and as you know, any of you can play this cos it's the opening round.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00- Film & Television.- OK. - Who do you think? Brian?- Me?

0:02:02 > 0:02:04Yeah, it's got to be me, Dermot.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06All right, Brian, and as you know,

0:02:06 > 0:02:09- any Egghead you like at this stage. - Erm...

0:02:09 > 0:02:10- Who should we take?- I'd say CJ.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13- Don't have to rush with CJ.- CJ. - CJ, please.

0:02:13 > 0:02:14OK, CJ.

0:02:14 > 0:02:18Well, it's a strong subject for him, so a big effort to knock him out.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Let's see you put it in then, Brian.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22It's in the Question Room you have to go.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26OK, Brian, kicking off on Film & Television.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29- Do you want to go first or second? - I'll go first, please, Dermot.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34OK, first question is to you, Brian.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36Which comedy show featured the catchphrase,

0:02:36 > 0:02:38"No, but yeah, but no, but yeah, but..."?

0:02:42 > 0:02:45Yeah, it's one of my favourite adult-theme programmes.

0:02:45 > 0:02:46It's Little Britain.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48It is Little Britain,

0:02:48 > 0:02:51and that really has passed into the public consciousness.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53"No, but, yeah, but..." OK. Over to CJ.

0:02:53 > 0:02:57CJ, which Dickens hero was played by Daniel Radcliffe

0:02:57 > 0:03:00in a 1999 television adaptation?

0:03:04 > 0:03:06HE SIGHS

0:03:06 > 0:03:09If it was '99, he would've been about...

0:03:09 > 0:03:11ten or 11?

0:03:11 > 0:03:13Oliver stays about the same age, doesn't he?

0:03:13 > 0:03:17Philip Pirrip and David Copperfield both grow up, don't they?

0:03:18 > 0:03:23OK, on the basis that he may have played it for the whole thing...

0:03:23 > 0:03:26- purely on age, I'll try Oliver Twist.- OK, Oliver Twist, yeah.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Maybe this is the role that caught the producer's eye

0:03:29 > 0:03:32as they were casting Harry Potter. Who knows?

0:03:32 > 0:03:34But it wasn't Oliver Twist. It's incorrect.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37No, it was David Copperfield. David Copperfield, CJ,

0:03:37 > 0:03:40which is great news for you, Brian. There you are, 1-0 up,

0:03:40 > 0:03:43and go 2-0 up with a correct answer here.

0:03:43 > 0:03:48Which 2011 film sequel which used scratch-and-sniff Aroma-Scope

0:03:48 > 0:03:51had the subtitle All The Time In The World?

0:03:56 > 0:04:01Right, I haven't seen any of these three films,

0:04:01 > 0:04:03and I would think it's more likely to be either

0:04:03 > 0:04:07Kung Fu Panda 2 or Spy Kids.

0:04:08 > 0:04:12It is just a guess, but I'm going to go for Kung Fu Panda 2.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14It's Spy Kids.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17But you were thinking about Spy Kids there.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19OK, your question, CJ,

0:04:19 > 0:04:21and a chance to get back in the game.

0:04:21 > 0:04:25Who directed the 1990 film, Total Recall?

0:04:29 > 0:04:31Who directed the 1990 film, Total Recall?

0:04:31 > 0:04:33It's Paul Verhoeven.

0:04:33 > 0:04:36It is. That is correct, and you are back in the game.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39It's all square as we go into a third question each.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42And Brian, in 2007, Rory Cellan-Jones

0:04:42 > 0:04:45became a BBC correspondent on what subject?

0:04:49 > 0:04:52I think it's entertainment. I'm going to go for entertainment.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54OK, entertainment for Rory Cellan-Jones,

0:04:54 > 0:04:57BBC correspondent on...

0:04:57 > 0:04:59technology. Ooh, OK.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01It's beginning to slip a bit there.

0:05:01 > 0:05:06And a chance, then, for CJ to nick the round.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10CJ, Dial A Deadly Number, Build A Better Mousetrap

0:05:10 > 0:05:12and The Radioactive Man

0:05:12 > 0:05:15were episodes of which 1960s television series?

0:05:20 > 0:05:21I don't think it's The Champions.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25I'm sure I've seen the episode, Build A Better Mousetrap,

0:05:25 > 0:05:27and I'm trying to think which one it was.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32Purely on the basis that Build A Better Mousetrap

0:05:32 > 0:05:35is ringing a slight bell and it's more...

0:05:35 > 0:05:40an Americanism than English saying, I will try The Man From UNCLE.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42The Man from UNCLE.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45It's not! I'm sure it's the other one you thought of...

0:05:45 > 0:05:46Well, you ruled out The Champions.

0:05:46 > 0:05:48It's The Avengers.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51Still all square then, Brian, and it's Sudden Death now.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53After three questions, all square,

0:05:53 > 0:05:58we take away the choices and you've just got to give me an answer.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00If you have to guess, it's a lot harder.

0:06:00 > 0:06:05Who played the title role in the 1942 film, Mrs Miniver?

0:06:06 > 0:06:09Erm... I don't know the film.

0:06:10 > 0:06:15I don't know if it's an English film or an American film.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20I really don't know, Dermot.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22- OK.- I don't know, sorry. - OK, got to take a pass, then, Brian.

0:06:22 > 0:06:23Do you know, CJ?

0:06:23 > 0:06:26- I can't think. This is pathetic! - OK, don't worry.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28It's not your question, it's only out of interest. Eggheads?

0:06:28 > 0:06:31- Greer Garson.- Greer Garson, Brian.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34Greer Garson. You hadn't heard of the film, didn't know whether it was

0:06:34 > 0:06:36American or British, so really in the dark there.

0:06:36 > 0:06:40So, CJ, in 2007, who took on the title role

0:06:40 > 0:06:44in the BBC TV series Inspector George Gently?

0:06:47 > 0:06:48Martin Shaw?

0:06:49 > 0:06:51It's the right answer.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Just got through there, CJ,

0:06:54 > 0:06:57and the irony being a question there about a police officer.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59And Brian,

0:06:59 > 0:07:02it means you won't be playing in the final round.

0:07:02 > 0:07:05Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:07:05 > 0:07:08CJ just squeaking that round, and only just,

0:07:08 > 0:07:11but it means Clueless have lost one brain now from the final round.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14And our second head-to-head, this one's History.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Who would like to play History?

0:07:16 > 0:07:20- Fancy a go?- Better keeping what we said.- Do you want me to do it?

0:07:20 > 0:07:23- If you want.- I'll have a go, Dermot. - All right, Ian.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25Who would you like to play from the Eggheads?

0:07:25 > 0:07:27Any one of them apart from CJ. He's just played.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29I'll play... Play Judith?

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Judith, yeah? I'll play Judith.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33OK, Ian taking on Judith.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Would you like, both, please...

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Well, not like, I'm asking you, to go to the Question Room, please,

0:07:38 > 0:07:39Ian and Judith.

0:07:39 > 0:07:44Right, Ian, taking on History, and do you want to go first or second?

0:07:44 > 0:07:45I'll go first, please, Dermot.

0:07:48 > 0:07:49First question for you -

0:07:49 > 0:07:53who led France during the period known as the First Empire?

0:07:57 > 0:07:59When you asked me the question,

0:07:59 > 0:08:02Napoleon stood out,

0:08:02 > 0:08:04so just for that reason,

0:08:04 > 0:08:07I'm going to go for Napoleon Bonaparte.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09OK, gut instinct, and anticipating the choices. You've got it!

0:08:09 > 0:08:11Yeah, Napoleon Bonaparte is correct.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13And Judith, your first question.

0:08:13 > 0:08:19Francis Drake was knighted by Elizabeth I in 1581 in which town?

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Well, neither Darlington nor Dunstable are on the sea,

0:08:24 > 0:08:27so I'm hoping it's Deptford.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30Deptford on the Thames Estuary.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33Is the right answer, yes. Well done. Well worked out.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35And back to you, Ian, then. Second question.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39What was the name of the Norfolk family whose letters make up one of

0:08:39 > 0:08:41the largest collections of correspondence

0:08:41 > 0:08:42from the 15th century?

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Again, I've not really heard of them, to be honest,

0:08:48 > 0:08:50so it would have to be...

0:08:50 > 0:08:53It wouldn't even be an educated guess. Erm...

0:08:54 > 0:08:56I'm going to go for Carlton.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58It's not.

0:08:58 > 0:08:59Do you know, Judith?

0:08:59 > 0:09:01Is it the Paston papers?

0:09:01 > 0:09:03It is the Paston family, yes.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06Well, Ian didn't get that, so a chance for Judith to take the lead.

0:09:06 > 0:09:10Judith, in the 17th century, what name was given to those clergymen

0:09:10 > 0:09:14who refused to swear allegiance to William and Mary as king and queen?

0:09:18 > 0:09:20I think they were called Nonjurors.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24Yes, they were Nonjurors,

0:09:24 > 0:09:26which makes things very difficult now for Ian.

0:09:26 > 0:09:27You need to get this.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30The American, Mary Leiter,

0:09:30 > 0:09:33was married to which Viceroy of India?

0:09:37 > 0:09:40I have heard of George Curzon.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43I've never heard of... never heard of the other two.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46I'll go for George Curzon.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48Good one! It's the right answer, yes.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Still in it.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53But got to hope Judith doesn't get this.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56Judith, the Shroud of Turin has been preserved in Turin

0:09:56 > 0:09:58since which century?

0:10:01 > 0:10:02Erm...

0:10:02 > 0:10:07Well, I would think the 16th century's too late.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10I would think it's probably the earliest one, the 12th century.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13The 12th century for the Shroud of Turin.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15It is the other way round.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18- The 16th? - It's too early, it is the 16th.- Oh!

0:10:18 > 0:10:191578.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22Well, good stuff for Ian,

0:10:22 > 0:10:24but that's the good news.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27The bad news is it's Sudden Death now, so if you do need to guess,

0:10:27 > 0:10:30we can't offer you anything to have a look at.

0:10:30 > 0:10:31Here you go.

0:10:31 > 0:10:36Which country's gold rush began in 1851 following a discovery

0:10:36 > 0:10:39by prospector Edward Hargraves?

0:10:39 > 0:10:40Erm...

0:10:42 > 0:10:43I'm not sure.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47I'll go for...

0:10:48 > 0:10:52I'm not sure Australia had a gold rush, but I'll go for Australia.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Australia.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56It's the right answer, Ian.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00Well done! Yeah.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Well, Judith, it means you've got to get this.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05In which US state did Joseph Smith

0:11:05 > 0:11:10found the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1830?

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Um... I...

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Are they the Mormons?

0:11:14 > 0:11:16Cos if they're the Mormons,

0:11:16 > 0:11:19I would say Utah, but if they're NOT the Mormons...

0:11:19 > 0:11:21Well, I'm going to risk it.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23- Utah.- Utah.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25And the Mormons, yes,

0:11:25 > 0:11:29BUT Joseph Smith didn't found them in Utah.

0:11:29 > 0:11:30New York, Judith.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33All those years back in 1830.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Which means, Ian, fantastically played there.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39Knocking Judith out on her favourite subject there, History.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41You're in the final round.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:11:45 > 0:11:48Well done, Ian. You didn't hear this as you were in the Question Room,

0:11:48 > 0:11:51but the guys were obviously pleased about your victory, but also going,

0:11:51 > 0:11:53"Oh, no, we'll never hear the end of this!"

0:11:53 > 0:11:55THEY LAUGH I'll never mention it again.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58We really believe you.

0:11:58 > 0:11:59As it stands, the Eggheads

0:11:59 > 0:12:03and Clueless have both lost one brain, then, from the final round.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Third head-to-head coming up. This is Music.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08Who would like to play this? Three players left - Steve, Glen or Phil?

0:12:08 > 0:12:12- Steve, it was decided. - Yeah, it's going to be me.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14All right, Steve, and choose an Egghead.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17Can't be CJ or Judith, so it's Kevin, Barry or Pat.

0:12:17 > 0:12:18I'd go for Barry.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20You think Barry?

0:12:20 > 0:12:23- It's the look on his face. Yeah. - Do you think Barry?

0:12:23 > 0:12:24Barry.

0:12:24 > 0:12:25All right, Steve,

0:12:25 > 0:12:29and Barry, would you accompany him into the Question Room, please.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32Steve, would you like to go first or second?

0:12:32 > 0:12:34I'll go first, please, Dermot.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39Good luck. Here you go, Steve, first question, then.

0:12:39 > 0:12:43The Vertigo Tour in 2005 and 2006

0:12:43 > 0:12:45was a worldwide tour of which band?

0:12:48 > 0:12:50I really am going to have to get this one right,

0:12:50 > 0:12:54otherwise I might not live this one down.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57Can't see it being Take That.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59I've got a leaning towards U2.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Don't know why, it's just something in the back of my mind says it's U2.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05- OK.- So, with no real conviction, I'll go for U2.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07OK, no real conviction,

0:13:07 > 0:13:09but plenty of world tours during the course of their career.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12And it is the right answer, the Vertigo Tour in 2005 and 2006.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15Don't think Take That had got back together by then.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17So, well worked out.

0:13:17 > 0:13:20And your first question, Barry - in the lyrics of a popular song,

0:13:20 > 0:13:23who "Frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee"?

0:13:27 > 0:13:28In the lyrics of a popular song,

0:13:28 > 0:13:31who "Frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee"?

0:13:31 > 0:13:33Apart from you Eggheads, of course!

0:13:35 > 0:13:37Oh, this could only be Puff The Magic Dragon.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39Is the right answer. Yes, Barry.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42And your next question then, Steve.

0:13:42 > 0:13:46Which rock star was the manager of Jimi Hendrix in the 1960s

0:13:46 > 0:13:49and then Slade in the 1970s?

0:13:53 > 0:13:55HE SIGHS

0:13:55 > 0:13:58I think they've all done a little bit at some stage in their careers.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01A bit like the last question, to be honest, Dermot.

0:14:01 > 0:14:05Not with any conviction, but I think it could be Chas Chandler.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08OK, no conviction. Well, you didn't have much conviction about U2

0:14:08 > 0:14:11but you've got that, and you've got this. It's the right answer!

0:14:11 > 0:14:12- Chas Chandler.- Phew.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15Heaven knows what you'd be like when you're sure!

0:14:15 > 0:14:17OK, two out of two.

0:14:17 > 0:14:21And Barry, Deep Blue Something had a 1996 UK number one single

0:14:21 > 0:14:25with a song named after which film of the 1960s?

0:14:30 > 0:14:34Well, I might be helping the police with their enquiries soon,

0:14:34 > 0:14:37but the most famous film of those of the 1960s

0:14:37 > 0:14:39has to be Breakfast At Tiffany's, so I'll go for that one.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Breakfast At Tiffany's is correct.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43Well, this policeman doesn't need any help

0:14:43 > 0:14:45with his enquiries so far.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48He's matched you, you've matched him.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50It's 2-2, and we move on to a third question each.

0:14:50 > 0:14:54The tenor Ludwig Schnorr von Carolsfeld

0:14:54 > 0:14:57died at the age of 29 in 1865,

0:14:57 > 0:15:00a few weeks after creating which Wagnerian role?

0:15:04 > 0:15:06HE SIGHS

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Well, as you can imagine, this is going to be a complete guess.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15Purely cos it's a bit sort of Germanic sounding,

0:15:15 > 0:15:17and it's Wagner,

0:15:17 > 0:15:19I'll go for Siegfried.

0:15:19 > 0:15:20OK, Siegfried.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23It's not. Do you know, Barry?

0:15:23 > 0:15:271865 was towards the end of Wagner's career,

0:15:27 > 0:15:30and Parsifal was his last opera, so I'll have a shot for Parsifal.

0:15:30 > 0:15:31No, it's not.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33So, I know that now, then - it's Tristan.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35DERMOT LAUGHS

0:15:35 > 0:15:39It is Tristan there with Ludwig Schnorr von Carolsfeld.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41And a chance for Barry.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43Barry, which composer based his classical symphony

0:15:43 > 0:15:47of 1917 on the style of Haydn?

0:15:50 > 0:15:53Sibelius wrote his symphonies, I think, a little later,

0:15:53 > 0:15:55and I don't think Debussy wrote any symphonies.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58But Prokofiev's No. 1 is nicknamed the Classical,

0:15:58 > 0:15:59so my answer is Prokofiev.

0:16:01 > 0:16:02Ah, you know it all too well.

0:16:02 > 0:16:04It is the right answer, Prokofiev.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07So, I'm surprised at you there, being caught out, Steve,

0:16:07 > 0:16:10by Ludwig Schnorr von Carolsfeld.

0:16:10 > 0:16:12But bad luck with that.

0:16:12 > 0:16:13Means you won't be in the final round.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16Would you all please come back and join your teams?

0:16:16 > 0:16:21An absolute curveball catching Steve out there. As it stands, then,

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Clueless have lost two brains from the final round, the Eggheads one.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27And our last head-to-head before the final round -

0:16:27 > 0:16:31a chance for you to try and even it up in terms of personnel -

0:16:31 > 0:16:32it's Arts & Books.

0:16:32 > 0:16:36And Glen or Phil available - Arts & Books?

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Er, I will sacrifice myself!

0:16:38 > 0:16:39LAUGHTER

0:16:39 > 0:16:42- Do you want to even go to the question?!- Probably not!

0:16:42 > 0:16:46Well, listen, you can guess at the first three! So, Glen -

0:16:46 > 0:16:48who would you like to play from the Eggheads -

0:16:48 > 0:16:50a couple of pushovers, Kevin or Pat?

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Er, I will play Kevin, please.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55You might as well go out in a blaze of glory - is that the calculation?!

0:16:55 > 0:16:58If I'm going to get lucky enough to guess all three answers, then...!

0:16:58 > 0:17:01Exactly! I see the reasoning. Why not?

0:17:01 > 0:17:04Let's have Glen and Kevin into the Question Room, then, please.

0:17:05 > 0:17:09OK, Glen, the expectations of Clueless resting on your shoulders.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12No pressure. Do you want to go first or second?

0:17:12 > 0:17:14I'll try second, please.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20OK. Hoping for a slip from Kevin, then...

0:17:20 > 0:17:21Kevin - which literary heroine

0:17:21 > 0:17:25is born in Newgate Prison and transported to the colonies?

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Yeah, that's the one by Daniel Defoe there,

0:17:30 > 0:17:32Moll Flanders.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34It's Moll Flanders.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37Prison question going past you there, Glen!

0:17:37 > 0:17:39Erm, your first question -

0:17:39 > 0:17:43which hobby is the subject of a 1994 anthology

0:17:43 > 0:17:44by Jeremy Paxman?

0:17:48 > 0:17:49Erm...

0:17:51 > 0:17:53I think I might have actually seen one of these,

0:17:53 > 0:17:55but I might be getting confused.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57I'm pretty sure it's not autograph collecting.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59I'm sure there was a documentary on it.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01I think it might be fishing.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04Fishing it is! It's the right answer!

0:18:04 > 0:18:05Yep - well done!

0:18:05 > 0:18:08OK, well, all square,

0:18:08 > 0:18:10and a good start there by Glen. And Kevin -

0:18:10 > 0:18:12the Russian Andrei Rublev

0:18:12 > 0:18:16was one of the leading figures in which artistic field?

0:18:19 > 0:18:21He was a...a painter,

0:18:21 > 0:18:25and obviously specialised particularly in icons in Russia.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27Russian icons is the right answer, Kevin.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Over to you, Glen -

0:18:29 > 0:18:31Sarah Burton and Robert Carne

0:18:31 > 0:18:34are central characters in which novel?

0:18:37 > 0:18:42Er, never read it. So, I'm afraid it's going to have to be

0:18:42 > 0:18:44a pretty uneducated guess from the three options.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46I will go...

0:18:47 > 0:18:51- ..straight down the middle, To The Lighthouse, please.- OK.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54Sarah Burton and Robert Carne in To The Lighthouse, you feel.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57It's not. Do you know, Kevin, of the other two?

0:18:57 > 0:19:00- I think it's South Riding. - It's South Riding. OK.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02Well, it might not be over,

0:19:02 > 0:19:05but if Kevin gets this, it is.

0:19:05 > 0:19:09Who wrote the poem I Wanna Be Yours, which contains the line,

0:19:09 > 0:19:14"If you like your coffee hot, let me be your coffee pot"?

0:19:18 > 0:19:21No, I don't know that, I've not come across that. Erm...

0:19:21 > 0:19:25I think I'll go for the one I'm least familiar with,

0:19:25 > 0:19:27- which is John Hegley.- It's...

0:19:27 > 0:19:29by John...

0:19:29 > 0:19:31- Cooper Clarke.- Is it? OK. All right.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33John Cooper Clarke! Woah!

0:19:33 > 0:19:34Well, er,

0:19:34 > 0:19:37unlucky there with that last guess, Glen -

0:19:37 > 0:19:40you'd have had Kevin rocking on his heels.

0:19:40 > 0:19:43But this gets you back in it - what was the real first name

0:19:43 > 0:19:45of the artist Cy Twombly?

0:19:48 > 0:19:51I wouldn't imagine someone to change their name from Max.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Again, I don't know it.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55I will go...

0:19:55 > 0:19:57with Edwin.

0:19:57 > 0:20:00It's the right answer, well done!

0:20:01 > 0:20:03Edwin! Just missed South Riding!

0:20:03 > 0:20:06If you'd got that you would have knocked him out.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09Bad luck, but you're into Sudden Death, which is an achievement.

0:20:09 > 0:20:10And Kevin, your question -

0:20:10 > 0:20:13the art movement Cobra

0:20:13 > 0:20:16was so named because its artists were mainly

0:20:16 > 0:20:19from Copenhagen, Brussels and which other city?

0:20:19 > 0:20:20Amsterdam.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23- A for Amsterdam...- Yeah. - ..is the right answer.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Over to you, then, Glen -

0:20:25 > 0:20:30Rita Angus, Colin McCahon and Toss Woollaston

0:20:30 > 0:20:33were leading artists from which country?

0:20:33 > 0:20:35I believe that was Scotland.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37Scotland. Well, yes, you can get

0:20:37 > 0:20:40Scottish sounds out of a lot of those names.

0:20:40 > 0:20:43It's not, thought, it's not Scotland, it's New Zealand,

0:20:43 > 0:20:44unfortunately, Glen.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46Really good effort there, though. Congratulations

0:20:46 > 0:20:48on that attempt, but not to be.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51You're not in the final round. Kevin, you are.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:20:54 > 0:20:56Well, this is what we've been playing towards,

0:20:56 > 0:20:59it's time for the final round, which as always is General Knowledge.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:21:02 > 0:21:04won't be allowed to take part in this round.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06So, Steve, Brian and Glen from Clueless

0:21:06 > 0:21:09and Judith from the Eggheads, would you all leave the studio, please?

0:21:11 > 0:21:15So, Ian and Phil, you're playing to win Clueless £3,000.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17Barry, Pat, Kevin and CJ - you are playing

0:21:17 > 0:21:20for something which money cannot buy,

0:21:20 > 0:21:22the Eggheads' reputation.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn,

0:21:25 > 0:21:28they're all General Knowledge, and you ARE allowed to confer -

0:21:28 > 0:21:31unlike in the head-to-heads. Ian and Phil, the question is -

0:21:31 > 0:21:34are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?

0:21:34 > 0:21:37Ian and Phil, how do you want to play this - do you want

0:21:37 > 0:21:40- to go first or second? - We've had a chat about it, Dermot,

0:21:40 > 0:21:41and we're going to go first.

0:21:43 > 0:21:44Best of luck, guys.

0:21:44 > 0:21:48First question, then - the musical Dancing Shoes,

0:21:48 > 0:21:51which had its world premiere in Belfast

0:21:51 > 0:21:54in 2010, tells the story of which footballer?

0:21:57 > 0:22:00- I think...- I'm thinking Belfast. - Belfast, maybe George Best.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02It's got to be George Best, hasn't it?

0:22:02 > 0:22:06Stanley Matthews, Blackpool. Yeah, Stanley Matthews...

0:22:06 > 0:22:08- I think...- Yeah. - It's going to be George...- Yeah.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11- We'll go for George Best.- We're going to go for George Best, Dermot.

0:22:11 > 0:22:13Picking up on the clue there!

0:22:13 > 0:22:16Belfast for the world premiere. It's the right answer!

0:22:16 > 0:22:18George Best. And Eggheads -

0:22:18 > 0:22:23the Crown of Scotland and the rest of the Honours of Scotland are kept

0:22:23 > 0:22:26- in which building? - It's Edinburgh Castle!

0:22:27 > 0:22:29- Edinburgh Castle.- Edinburgh Castle.

0:22:29 > 0:22:31That's Edinburgh Castle, Dermot.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34Is the right answer, Eggheads. OK,

0:22:34 > 0:22:36all square after the opening exchanges.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39Second question apiece. Yours, clueless -

0:22:39 > 0:22:41Commonly seen in Asian food stores,

0:22:41 > 0:22:43what are panko?

0:22:47 > 0:22:51I have a feeling they're like Japanese noodles.

0:22:51 > 0:22:55- I have no idea, I'm happy to go with what you want to go with.- OK.

0:22:55 > 0:22:59- I'm happy to go with that.- We're going to go for rice noodles, Dermot.

0:22:59 > 0:23:01Rice noodles, for panko.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03- Eggheads?- I would have gone for that.- It sounds plausible.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05It would have caught you out.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08It's breadcrumbs. It's not rice noodles.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11Interesting to see the Eggheads didn't know it, either.

0:23:11 > 0:23:13OK, well, this, though, is your

0:23:13 > 0:23:17second question, Eggheads - the Jura mountains extend along the border

0:23:17 > 0:23:19between France and which other country?

0:23:20 > 0:23:22ALL: Switzerland?

0:23:22 > 0:23:23Switzerland.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26Yeah. More to your liking there.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29Switzerland. A geography question there, and the Eggheads getting it,

0:23:29 > 0:23:32which means you've got to get this, Clueless -

0:23:32 > 0:23:36the German geographer Walter Christaller

0:23:36 > 0:23:39is best known for which area of study?

0:23:44 > 0:23:46I'm hoping that my A-level geography

0:23:46 > 0:23:49- might be coming in hand here... - Right.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51Because it's not plate tectonics,

0:23:51 > 0:23:53definitely not, it's not meteorology.

0:23:53 > 0:23:57I think it's something to do with the polders of the Netherlands,

0:23:57 > 0:23:59- and central place theory.- OK.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01- A-level geography, is this?- Mm-hmm.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04Well taught, it's the right answer!

0:24:04 > 0:24:06Central place theory! Get in!

0:24:06 > 0:24:08- Well done!- Well done, Phil.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10But still an opening for the Eggheads.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14in the 1920s, Miller Huggins was a famous name

0:24:14 > 0:24:16in which sport?

0:24:18 > 0:24:20- Never heard of him. - Never heard of him or her.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22No.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24Assume it's a "him" from the options.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27- You would think a major boxer, we'd be more likely to hear of.- Yes.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30- There's more places to hide in the other two sports.- My reasoning, yes.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33Are you inclining towards either of them?

0:24:33 > 0:24:37- I would guess American football. - That's the one I'm inclining to.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Funnily enough, that's the one I would go for. >

0:24:39 > 0:24:42- Go for American football? - I'm inclined to that,

0:24:42 > 0:24:44- without having any... - No, we don't know.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47- Happy with that? - I'm happy with it, but...

0:24:47 > 0:24:50We don't know, Dermot. We're going to go for American football.

0:24:50 > 0:24:55American football. Miller Huggins was a famous name in the 1920s

0:24:55 > 0:24:57in the sport of baseball.

0:24:57 > 0:24:58- Oh!- Oh.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01Wrong, Eggheads! Oh, dear!

0:25:01 > 0:25:04He was manager of the New York Yankees -

0:25:04 > 0:25:06very successful at the time, as you know.

0:25:06 > 0:25:08Well, but for a few breadcrumbs,

0:25:08 > 0:25:11you'd have beaten the Eggheads!

0:25:11 > 0:25:14We go to Sudden Death. Everything to play for. Good luck, guys.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17Cluny, Valenciennes

0:25:17 > 0:25:21and Alencon are varieties of which fabric?

0:25:21 > 0:25:24Thinking it sounds very French, which would

0:25:24 > 0:25:26lead me more towards lace.

0:25:28 > 0:25:32- Rather than anything else. Silk would possibly...- I've not...

0:25:32 > 0:25:35- ..be more Eastern.- I've not even heard of any of them, to be honest.

0:25:35 > 0:25:39- Yeah.- A natural fabric.- Certainly not leather or something, is it?- No.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42Yeah. Erm... Yeah, we'll go with that, mate.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44We'll go with lace, Dermot.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47Lace. Sounds French, yep.

0:25:47 > 0:25:51It's the right answer, well done! Didn't have Chantilly there, either!

0:25:51 > 0:25:53Great shout.

0:25:53 > 0:25:57Oh, very good. So, real pressure on the Eggheads now.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59The ancient Greek town of Delphi,

0:25:59 > 0:26:02the site of a celebrated oracle of Apollo,

0:26:02 > 0:26:05was situated on the slope of which mountain?

0:26:05 > 0:26:07- Is it Parnassus. - Should be Parnassus, yeah.

0:26:07 > 0:26:10- Parnassus.- I've been there as well.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12I've been to Delphi. Yeah, I'm sure it's...

0:26:12 > 0:26:15Is Apollo in the...? Yeah, it's Parnassus, I think.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18- Yeah. So, no, I think...- OK.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21- Parnassus. - We're going for Mount Parnassus.

0:26:21 > 0:26:23Got to get this, Eggheads.

0:26:23 > 0:26:24It's the right answer.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26Parnassus is correct.

0:26:26 > 0:26:30Another pair of questions. OK, well, try this one -

0:26:30 > 0:26:34what is the name of the breed of dog, from the north of England,

0:26:34 > 0:26:37originally called the Rothbury Terrier, that looks

0:26:37 > 0:26:39much like a lamb?

0:26:39 > 0:26:42- Have you any inkling at all?- Not really. I'm just trying to think.

0:26:42 > 0:26:46I'm thinking at the moment an Airedale. Don't know why.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50- Go with that, then. I don't know. - I'm thinking,

0:26:50 > 0:26:53- is Rothbury an area around Airedale? - I've never...

0:26:53 > 0:26:56- I've never had a dog or pet or anything like that, so...- OK.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58As a slightly uneducated guess, Dermot,

0:26:58 > 0:27:00- we'll go with Airedale.- Airedale,

0:27:00 > 0:27:05for the Rothbury Terrier, also known as the...

0:27:05 > 0:27:08not the Airedale, it's incorrect. Do you know, Eggheads?

0:27:08 > 0:27:09Bedlington.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11The Bedlington Terrier.

0:27:12 > 0:27:13OK. Well,

0:27:13 > 0:27:17a chance for the Eggheads, then - for what does the letter L stand

0:27:17 > 0:27:20in the name of the author Dorothy L Sayers?

0:27:20 > 0:27:22For what does the letter L stand

0:27:22 > 0:27:25in the name of the author Dorothy L Sayers?

0:27:25 > 0:27:28- Leigh.- Leigh? - Yeah. L-E-I-G-H, yeah.

0:27:28 > 0:27:30That's Leigh.

0:27:30 > 0:27:31Leigh...

0:27:31 > 0:27:34is the correct answer, Eggheads - you've won!

0:27:39 > 0:27:42Oh, bad, bad luck there! Listen,

0:27:42 > 0:27:44I mean, you didn't know panko, so...

0:27:44 > 0:27:47Food & Drink was my specialist subject!

0:27:47 > 0:27:50- Hey, listen...- Not any more! - Food & Drink

0:27:50 > 0:27:53- catches Kevin out all the time! - I talked myself out of it.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56It's one of our most difficult subjects there.

0:27:56 > 0:27:58That's the way the cookie crumbles -

0:27:58 > 0:28:00let's use that food and drink analogy!

0:28:00 > 0:28:03- You missed that, but what about central place theory?- Hey?!

0:28:03 > 0:28:07I did geography and geology A-levels so I knew it wasn't the other two.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09Fantastic. So, I think you two have bragging rights there.

0:28:09 > 0:28:12I don't know what it's going to be like on the way home,

0:28:12 > 0:28:14I'd like to be a fly on the wall for that!

0:28:14 > 0:28:16- But thanks for taking on the Eggheads...- Thanks very much.

0:28:16 > 0:28:19..and giving them a real game in that final round.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them,

0:28:22 > 0:28:24and they still reign supreme over Quizland.

0:28:24 > 0:28:26You won't be going home with the £3,000.

0:28:26 > 0:28:28The money rolls over to the next show.

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

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

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

0:28:36 > 0:28:38£4,000 says they don't.

0:28:38 > 0:28:39Until then, goodbye.
