0:00:04 > 0:00:07These 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?

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

0:00:26 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:30 > 0:00:31They are the Eggheads.

0:00:31 > 0:00:35And taking on our awesome quiz champions today are The Bell Boys.

0:00:35 > 0:00:39Now, this team all quiz together at their local, The Bell,

0:00:39 > 0:00:42in Chichester, usually on opposing teams.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45They have put aside their differences to tackle the Eggheads today.

0:00:45 > 0:00:46Let's meet them.

0:00:46 > 0:00:50Hi, I'm Bob, I'm 61 and I'm a retired GP.

0:00:50 > 0:00:55Hello, I'm Stuart, I'm 66, and I'm a part-time taxi driver.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hello, I'm Joe, I'm 59, I'm a project manager.

0:00:58 > 0:01:03Hello, I'm Steve, I'm 51 and I'm a retired primary head teacher.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Hello, I'm Andy, I'm 61, I'm semi-retired

0:01:05 > 0:01:08and work in the entertainment industry.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10Welcome to you, Bell Boys.

0:01:10 > 0:01:14Interested in the idea that you've got the cream of talent

0:01:14 > 0:01:16from The Bell quiz there.

0:01:16 > 0:01:21How did you pick them? Where there trials? Were there some kind of tests?

0:01:21 > 0:01:25When we came up with the idea of entering this competition,

0:01:25 > 0:01:29I asked the landlady who were the stand out players in each of the teams,

0:01:29 > 0:01:31and she dropped me a few names,

0:01:31 > 0:01:36I had a word, and got four of them to agree to accompany me.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39But a few rivalries, then, buried, I suppose?

0:01:39 > 0:01:45Yeah. We've represented the pub together before in the local radio Battle of the Boozers,

0:01:45 > 0:01:49the inter-pub competition, which, fortunately, we won this year.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52Actually, when I told Daphne Bell Boys were arriving, she said,

0:01:52 > 0:01:55"Oh, good, they can take my bags up to my room."

0:01:55 > 0:01:56ALL CHUCKLE

0:01:56 > 0:01:59But now we understand the origin of the name.

0:01:59 > 0:02:03Now, every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.

0:02:03 > 0:02:07If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09Bell Boys, the challengers actually won the last game,

0:02:09 > 0:02:11proving it can be done,

0:02:11 > 0:02:15and meaning £1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads today.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18Our first head-to-head to kick us off is Music.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22Who's your Music specialist, then, Bell Boys?

0:02:22 > 0:02:23We think that's Andy.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26- Yeah, away you go, Andy.- Andy? OK.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29And you get to choose any Egghead you like.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33- I'd like to try Chris, please. - Chris on Music.

0:02:33 > 0:02:38OK, let's get the whole quiz started with Andy and Chris contesting Music.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41Into the Question Room, both of you, please.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44Andy, would you like to go first or second?

0:02:44 > 0:02:46I'd like to go first, please, Dermot.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51Kicking off, then, and first question.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54What is the title of Nilsson's only UK number one single

0:02:54 > 0:02:58which reached the top of the chart in 1972?

0:03:01 > 0:03:04Well, I think that one is Without You.

0:03:04 > 0:03:08OK. Without You. Yes, it is. Well done.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10By Nilsson. Chris,

0:03:10 > 0:03:13which popstar's many film appearances

0:03:13 > 0:03:18include a major role in the 1983 World War II prisoner of war drama

0:03:18 > 0:03:19Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence?

0:03:21 > 0:03:25Well, I'd like to see Madonna in a World War II prison camp drama

0:03:25 > 0:03:27but it was actually David Bowie.

0:03:27 > 0:03:28Steady now, Chris.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32David Bowie in Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence is correct.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34Andy.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37In the 1960s, the musician Jose Feliciano

0:03:37 > 0:03:41won a Grammy Award for Best Male Contemporary Pop Vocal Performance

0:03:41 > 0:03:43for his cover version of which song?

0:03:47 > 0:03:49He did a splendid version of Light My Fire.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53He did. And won a Grammy for it. It's the right answer. Well done.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55Best Male Contemporary Pop Vocal Performance.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58OK, Chris. I'm With You,

0:03:58 > 0:04:02which topped the UK album chart in September 2011, is by which group?

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Yeah. I don't think it's Limp Bizkit.

0:04:10 > 0:04:14I don't think The Killers have done much of late.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16But the Red Hot Chili Peppers have been around lately

0:04:16 > 0:04:18so I'll go with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Oh, well worked out, it's correct.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Yes, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, I'm With You.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24Going well for both of you.

0:04:24 > 0:04:272-2. Back to Andy.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30Rodgers and Hammerstein won their only Academy Award together

0:04:30 > 0:04:35for the song It Might As Well Be Spring from which musical?

0:04:38 > 0:04:43I kind of think it isn't The King And I, so it's a two-way split.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46I'm going to go for State Fair.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49State Fair is correct, and means, Chris,

0:04:49 > 0:04:51you need to get this to stay in the round.

0:04:51 > 0:04:56In which role in classical music did the Russian Alfred Schnittke

0:04:56 > 0:04:59find fame in the second half of the 20th century?

0:05:03 > 0:05:04Hmm.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08Well, I don't think there's any famous trombonists

0:05:08 > 0:05:09in classical music.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12I mean, we had Chris Barber in trad jazz and that sort of thing

0:05:12 > 0:05:16but I don't think many trombonists actually get that well known.

0:05:16 > 0:05:20I've not heard of him as a composer so I'll go for opera singer.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22OK, an opera singer, Alfred Schnittke.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25- He is actually a composer, or was.- Was he?- Yeah.

0:05:25 > 0:05:29Which means, compose yourself, Andy,

0:05:29 > 0:05:33prepare yourself for the final round in which you will be appearing.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:05:37 > 0:05:40Well, after that exchange, the Eggheads are one brain down,

0:05:40 > 0:05:42that brain being Chris.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45And we move on swiftly to our second head-to-head today.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47This one is Sport.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49I wonder if this will suit you as well

0:05:49 > 0:05:51after that blistering start by Andy.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54- After a toss of the coin, Stuart is going to take this on.- OK.

0:05:54 > 0:05:58Stuart, you get to choose any Egghead apart from Chris. He's eliminated.

0:05:58 > 0:06:02- Judith or Daphne.- Judith. Judith, please.

0:06:02 > 0:06:06OK, Stuart and Judith playing Sport. As you know, you need to go to the Question Room to do it.

0:06:08 > 0:06:13Well, Stuart, let's see if you can build on Andy's trailblazing there.

0:06:13 > 0:06:14Would you like to go first or second?

0:06:14 > 0:06:17I'll follow Andy and go first, please.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22First question to you, Stuart, on Sport, then.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25What term is used to refer to falling off the board

0:06:25 > 0:06:26in the sport of surfing?

0:06:29 > 0:06:31I sincerely hope the answer is wipeout.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33It is, yes, wipeout.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36which is not going to happen to you after getting that one.

0:06:36 > 0:06:40Judith, SAG stations, or SAG stops,

0:06:40 > 0:06:44typically provide assistance to those engaged in which sport?

0:06:47 > 0:06:51Well, I don't think in skiing you stop and have assistance, do you?

0:06:51 > 0:06:54And yachting, you tend to carry on unless you go to a port.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57So I imagine it must be cycling.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59Cycling is correct, yes. Well done, Judith.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02Solid starts by you both. Stuart, second question.

0:07:02 > 0:07:09In 2008, Delon Armitage made his full England debut in which sport?

0:07:12 > 0:07:15Well, I've not heard of him in football or cricket,

0:07:15 > 0:07:18so I will shoot for Rugby Union.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22Rugby Union is the correct answer. Well done, Stuart.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27Judith, over what distance are the hurdles races

0:07:27 > 0:07:30of the IAAF World Indoor Athletics Championships run?

0:07:33 > 0:07:35I don't know.

0:07:36 > 0:07:41Umm... Why can't they be nice round figures like the outdoor ones?

0:07:41 > 0:07:45I suppose, perhaps, 80 metres.

0:07:45 > 0:07:46- 80 metres?- Mmm.

0:07:46 > 0:07:49Daphne doesn't think so. What do you think, Daphne?

0:07:49 > 0:07:50I'm not sure

0:07:50 > 0:07:53but I might have gone for 70.

0:07:53 > 0:07:54No, it's 60.

0:07:54 > 0:07:59- It's 60.- 60 metres for the hurdles in indoor athletics.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02So, Stuart, if you get this, you're into the final round.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06Which tennis player achieved his first and only Grand Slam victory

0:08:06 > 0:08:10at the Australian Open in January 1977?

0:08:14 > 0:08:18Well, I know Stan Smith won Wimbledon so it's not him.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22I'll guess at Roscoe Tanner.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25OK, Roscoe Tanner. Judith likes tennis.

0:08:25 > 0:08:26Is it Roscoe Tanner?

0:08:26 > 0:08:29I don't know, but he had the fastest serve ever for a long time.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Oh, did he?

0:08:31 > 0:08:33And he also won one Grand Slam victory

0:08:33 > 0:08:37in Australia in January 1977. It is the right answer.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41Well done, Stuart. You're through to the final round.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Well, Bell Boys, the plan working so far.

0:08:48 > 0:08:52As it stands, the Eggheads have lost two from the final round and you're all still there.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55The bell tolling for the Eggheads. Will it get worse?

0:08:55 > 0:08:57Our third head-to-head is Arts & Books.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00Who'd like to play this one? Remember,

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- Stuart and Andy have played, so one of the other three.- Yeah.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06- Go do your thing.- I think Steve's going to take that one.

0:09:06 > 0:09:07All right, Steve, and pick an Egghead.

0:09:07 > 0:09:12You cannot pick Chris or Judith, though. So it's Pat, Barry or Daphne.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15- Pat or Barry.- OK.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18- I'll play Pat, please.- OK, Pat.

0:09:18 > 0:09:22Let's have Steve and Pat playing Arts & Books from the Question Room.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Steve, you get to choose. Do you want to go first or second?

0:09:25 > 0:09:29I'll follow what's gone before and go first, please. Thank you.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34OK, Arts & Books. Your first question, Steve.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38A limerick is an example of which poetic stanza form?

0:09:40 > 0:09:43OK, now, I'm going to have to think this through. Number of lines.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48Are you saying a few,

0:09:48 > 0:09:50hopefully broadcastable, limericks to yourself?

0:09:50 > 0:09:56Well, yes. It's just counting up the lines. I think there are...um...

0:09:56 > 0:10:00five lines, so it's a quintain, I believe.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Yeah, that's right.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04OK, Pat, your first question.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07What term is used to refer to the substance used to coat

0:10:07 > 0:10:11an artist's canvas prior to beginning a painting?

0:10:15 > 0:10:18I think he uses a primer.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21A primer. Yes, of course. You've both had a couple of primers there,

0:10:21 > 0:10:23just ease you in to this round.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26Steve, Under The Greenwood Tree,

0:10:26 > 0:10:30featuring the characters Fancy Day and Dick Dewy,

0:10:30 > 0:10:33is an 1872 novel by which author?

0:10:36 > 0:10:40Well, I know that the title has a Thomas Hardy flavour to it

0:10:40 > 0:10:42but I'm sure it's not Thomas Hardy.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Umm...

0:10:44 > 0:10:47It's a toss-up between Henry Fielding and Anthony Trollope.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49I'll go for Henry Fielding.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51Henry Fielding. Under The Greenwood Tree

0:10:51 > 0:10:55is by Hardy. It is Hardy.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57Hardy there. Well, a chance for Pat.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00The author Eric Van Lustbader

0:11:00 > 0:11:03has written a series of novels featuring which character?

0:11:06 > 0:11:08Hmm.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11I think he wrote several Robert Ludlums

0:11:11 > 0:11:13after Mr Ludlum's demise but...

0:11:14 > 0:11:18And did Ludlum write The Bourne... one of the Bourne books?

0:11:18 > 0:11:20I think he probably did.

0:11:20 > 0:11:21I don't think it's Sherlock Holmes.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24Although there are several novelists

0:11:24 > 0:11:26who famously wrote James Bond sequels,

0:11:26 > 0:11:28I don't think this is the chap.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31I think it's Jason Bourne.

0:11:31 > 0:11:35Jason Bourne. The other Eggheads like it. It's the right answer.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38So it means, Steve, you need to get this.

0:11:38 > 0:11:42"The oldest hath borne most We that are young

0:11:42 > 0:11:45"Shall never see so much, nor live so long."

0:11:45 > 0:11:48are the final spoken words in which Shakespeare play?

0:11:53 > 0:11:55Well, I'm pretty sure it's not Romeo And Juliet.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57I hope I'm remembering correctly.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Um...

0:12:00 > 0:12:04- I think I'm going to go for King Lear.- King Lear.

0:12:04 > 0:12:08"The oldest hath borne most." It's the right answer, yes.

0:12:08 > 0:12:09Well...

0:12:09 > 0:12:12just that slip-up in the middle giving Pat an opportunity here.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16Pat, in which played by Christopher Marlowe does the central character

0:12:16 > 0:12:19burn a copy of the Koran?

0:12:23 > 0:12:26My first thought is Tamburlaine The Great.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29I'm not sure whether he was Muslim or not.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32If he wasn't Muslim, then, as he rampaged across Asia,

0:12:32 > 0:12:35he will have been oppressing Muslim peoples

0:12:35 > 0:12:37and he might well have done that.

0:12:38 > 0:12:43Edward II. I can't think they were very preoccupied

0:12:43 > 0:12:46with the Koran back in the England of Edward II.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48And Doctor Faustus...

0:12:49 > 0:12:52I'll have to assume that it was Tamburlaine The Great

0:12:52 > 0:12:54as he rampaged across Asia.

0:12:54 > 0:12:58OK, Tamburlaine The Great is the right answer, Pat.

0:12:58 > 0:12:59Yes, you've won the round.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02I suspect, Steve, if you hadn't got confused

0:13:02 > 0:13:05about your Hardy there, we'd be playing deep into Sudden Death.

0:13:05 > 0:13:08But not to be for you on the day. It means you won't be in the final round.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:13:12 > 0:13:15As it stands, The Bell Boys have lost their first brain from the final round,

0:13:15 > 0:13:18the Eggheads have lost two.

0:13:18 > 0:13:22We reach our last subject before the final round. This is Science.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24Joe or Bob to play science.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26- Hmm.- Hmm.

0:13:26 > 0:13:29- Not my strong point. - I'll play.- Are you sure?- Yeah.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32You might be more use at the back end, though.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35- Well, your general knowledge is good. - OK.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38- I'll go for that one, please, Dermot.- All right, Bob.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41The remaining Eggheads are Barry or Daphne.

0:13:41 > 0:13:45- I'd like to challenge Daphne, please. - You said that with a smile on your face.

0:13:45 > 0:13:49Has it always been an ambition to take on the mighty Daphne Fowler?

0:13:49 > 0:13:51It has indeed, yes.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54OK, well, let's see this clash in the Question Room, then.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56Bob and Daphne playing Science.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00So, Bob, I suppose it's your medical background

0:14:00 > 0:14:02that led them to put you up for this.

0:14:02 > 0:14:05- Do you want to go first or second? - I won't buck the trend.

0:14:05 > 0:14:06I'll go first, please.

0:14:08 > 0:14:09It must be said,

0:14:09 > 0:14:13been working pretty well so far. Science, then.

0:14:13 > 0:14:14Off we go, Bob.

0:14:14 > 0:14:19In terms of technology, for what does the abbreviation R&D stand?

0:14:25 > 0:14:28Umm... Risky & Dangerous sounds too loose a term.

0:14:30 > 0:14:31Reading & Discussion...

0:14:32 > 0:14:37- No, not specific enough. I think it's Research & Development.- Yeah.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39It is. I'm pretty sure you know it, not just think it.

0:14:39 > 0:14:42Research & Development for R&D. OK, Daphne.

0:14:42 > 0:14:48The extension .jpg at the end of a filename in a modern computer

0:14:48 > 0:14:53normally indicates that the file in question comprises of what?

0:14:56 > 0:14:59An image. Photographs.

0:14:59 > 0:15:03Yeah, that's right. It's all square. One-all.

0:15:03 > 0:15:07Bob, the European Space Agency launched its first mission

0:15:07 > 0:15:11to another planet in the solar system in 2003

0:15:11 > 0:15:14with which planet as its destination?

0:15:16 > 0:15:17A tricky one, this.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20So many people are sending so much stuff up into space

0:15:20 > 0:15:23that you lose track of who's going where and when.

0:15:23 > 0:15:28Um... I don't think Mercury's a target for anybody.

0:15:28 > 0:15:33So I'll rule that out. Out of Venus and Mars...

0:15:33 > 0:15:37You read more about probes to Mars so my answer is Mars.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40OK, Mars. And you got it, yes, well done.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Probe to Mars. OK, Daphne.

0:15:42 > 0:15:47Ayurvedic medicine, A-Y-U-R-V-E-D-I-C,

0:15:47 > 0:15:51is generally believed to have originated in which country?

0:15:53 > 0:15:55I think that's India.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57- India.- Mmm-hmm.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59India is correct. It's all square.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01I think, as we rather expected,

0:16:01 > 0:16:03this is going to be a hard-fought round. Your question, Bob.

0:16:03 > 0:16:09What bodily disorder is known by the scientific name cholelithiasis?

0:16:12 > 0:16:15Well, I should be shot if I don't know this one. This is gallstones.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17DERMOT CHUCKLES

0:16:17 > 0:16:21- Did I get the pronunciation right, Dr Bob?- Just about.- Right, OK!

0:16:21 > 0:16:23Well, at least you understood it.

0:16:23 > 0:16:27Cholelithiasis. Gallstones is correct. Yes, well done.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30I was a bit nervous reading that one out there,

0:16:30 > 0:16:33knowing Bob's medical background.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35Fell absolutely perfectly for you.

0:16:35 > 0:16:39If this doesn't fall perfectly for Daphne, another Egghead will be gone.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42The male of which bird species has a distinctive booming call

0:16:42 > 0:16:45that has earned it the title of Britain's loudest bird?

0:16:48 > 0:16:52I think that's a bittern.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54- Britain's loudest bird?- Mmm-hmm.

0:16:54 > 0:16:58The bittern is correct, yes. All square.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01Sudden Death comes upon us. We haven't played this before, Bob.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04Sudden Death means we take away the options you've seen up till now

0:17:04 > 0:17:07so just got to get the answer from you.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09Here's your question.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12Lassa fever is named after a town in which country

0:17:12 > 0:17:16where it was first identified in 1969?

0:17:16 > 0:17:18I can give you the continent.

0:17:18 > 0:17:23I'm torn between two countries on that continent.

0:17:26 > 0:17:27I'll go for Nigeria.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29It's the right answer!

0:17:29 > 0:17:31Daphne.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34If angiosperm is the botanical term

0:17:34 > 0:17:38for a plant in which the seeds are in a closed ovary,

0:17:38 > 0:17:41what word is used for those whose seeds are exposed?

0:17:41 > 0:17:43SHE SIGHS

0:17:43 > 0:17:46I ought to know this, but...

0:17:49 > 0:17:53No, sorry, it's just not coming, Dermot. I'll have to pass.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56OK, it's a pass. You've won the round, then, Bob. Do you know?

0:17:56 > 0:17:59- No, I'm afraid I don't know either.- OK!

0:17:59 > 0:18:03Well, both cracked on this question. Something had to give. Anyone know?

0:18:03 > 0:18:06- BOTH: Gymnosperm.- Gymnosperm.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08Gymnosperm would have kept you in it.

0:18:08 > 0:18:12- I would have picked it out of three.- Exactly. You would have picked it out of three.

0:18:12 > 0:18:13Happens so often to contestants,

0:18:13 > 0:18:16to your opponents, but it's happened to an Egghead today.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Bob emerging triumphant out of it.

0:18:18 > 0:18:22So, Bob, Daphne, would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:18:23 > 0:18:26So this is what we've been playing towards.

0:18:26 > 0:18:29It's time for the final round, which, as always,

0:18:29 > 0:18:32is General Knowledge but I'm afraid those of you

0:18:32 > 0:18:34who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed to take part.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36So just Steve from The Bell Boys,

0:18:36 > 0:18:38and Daphne, Chris and Judith from the Eggheads,

0:18:38 > 0:18:41would you leave the studio, please?

0:18:42 > 0:18:45Well, then, Bob, Stuart, Joe and Andy,

0:18:45 > 0:18:47you're playing to win The Bell Boys £1,000.

0:18:47 > 0:18:52Barry and Pat, you're playing for something which money can't buy -

0:18:52 > 0:18:55the Eggheads' rather damaged reputation.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01This time, the questions are all general knowledge.

0:19:01 > 0:19:05You are allowed to confer in this final round. Bob, Stuart, Joe and Andy, the question is,

0:19:05 > 0:19:08are your four brains better than the Eggheads' two?

0:19:08 > 0:19:11Bell Boys, would you like to go first or second?

0:19:11 > 0:19:13I think we'll go first. We'll stick with the trend.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19And why not? Been working so well up to this point.

0:19:19 > 0:19:23First question, then, goes to you, Bell Boys, and good luck with it.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26Dr Lilith Sternin, played by Bebe Neuwirth,

0:19:26 > 0:19:29was married to which other sitcom character?

0:19:33 > 0:19:34Yeah?

0:19:34 > 0:19:36I'm reliably informed - none of them mean anything to me -

0:19:36 > 0:19:39but I'm reliably informed it's Frasier Crane.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42Frasier Crane is correct, yes.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44That gets you off to a good start.

0:19:44 > 0:19:48Eggheads, which UK organisation has a trading arm

0:19:48 > 0:19:50that publishes the magazine known as Which?

0:19:53 > 0:19:56- I believe that's the Consumers' Association.- I think so.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58- Are you happy with that?- Yeah.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Yes, we're both happy with this one. It's the Consumers' Association.

0:20:01 > 0:20:05Publishing Which?, is correct, yes. Consumers' Association.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07So, back to the Bell Boys. Second question.

0:20:07 > 0:20:12A member of which band tweeted "I forbid you to like it"

0:20:12 > 0:20:15after David Cameron had chosen one of the band's songs

0:20:15 > 0:20:16on Desert Island Discs.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24- You're looking at me now, aren't you? - We're kind of hoping... Well...

0:20:24 > 0:20:26It sounds to me...

0:20:26 > 0:20:28I was going to say it's probably Morrissey, isn't it?

0:20:28 > 0:20:30Yes, I would say the same.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33- Was it Morrissey?- Yes.- So we'll stick with The Smiths?- Yeah.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37OK. We're thinking Morrissey so we're thinking The Smiths.

0:20:37 > 0:20:38The Smiths.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41Tweeting, "I forbid you to like it."

0:20:41 > 0:20:43It's the right answer, yes. Well done.

0:20:43 > 0:20:46Second question for the Eggheads.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49Where was the architect Zaha Hadid born?

0:20:52 > 0:20:54It's not Syria. Is she Iranian?

0:20:54 > 0:20:55- I think she was born in Baghdad.- Oh.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58- Well, let me just...- I'm not sure.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00It's either Iran or Iraq.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02I don't think she was born in Tehran, I think she's from Baghdad.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05In which case, it would be Iraq. So I think it's Iraq.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08OK. We're going for Iraq.

0:21:08 > 0:21:12Iraq for the birthplace of Zaha Hadid.

0:21:12 > 0:21:16It's the right answer, Eggheads. Great quizzing up to this point.

0:21:16 > 0:21:17Bell Boys.

0:21:17 > 0:21:21Who was creative director of the fashion label Hermes

0:21:21 > 0:21:24from 2003 to 2010?

0:21:29 > 0:21:31Does anyone know?

0:21:31 > 0:21:35Thierry Mugler, I thought he was more into bags and that sort of thing.

0:21:35 > 0:21:39Erm.. Gaultier. Gaultier. Surely not.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43If I was going to go with one, I'd just guess Farhi,

0:21:43 > 0:21:45but it would be a guess.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48- Listening to you, I'd probably go along with that reasoning.- Yeah?

0:21:48 > 0:21:50I'd happily, yeah.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52- Yeah?- Yeah.- Shall we?

0:21:52 > 0:21:56OK. We don't really know. Not fashion... Yeah, erm!

0:21:56 > 0:22:01Not really our thing! We'll go with Nicole Farhi.

0:22:01 > 0:22:07OK. For the creative director of Hermes. Nicole Farhi...

0:22:07 > 0:22:11No, it's not. It is... Of the other two...

0:22:11 > 0:22:13A lot easier for you if you're guessing. Do you know?

0:22:13 > 0:22:16- Thierry Mugler?- No.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19It's a lot easier now for everyone! It's Jean Paul Gaultier.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22Interesting the Eggheads may have struggled with that as well,

0:22:22 > 0:22:24but that wasn't their question. This is.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27And they don't win unless they, obviously, beat your score.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30In which part of London did Marie Stopes

0:22:30 > 0:22:34open the UK's first family planning clinic in 1921?

0:22:36 > 0:22:39I've got a feeling she opened it in the East End.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41East End rings a bell with me.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43That would make it Bethnal Green, wouldn't it?

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Tooting's south London. Where's Holloway?

0:22:46 > 0:22:47I'm not sure.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49Bethnal Green is cast iron East End.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52I'm sure she opened it in the East End.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54That's probably where the greatest need was.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57I think Bethnal Green is the most East End-y of those three options.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59OK. Shall we go for that?

0:22:59 > 0:23:01I have a feeling that she opened her clinic in the East End

0:23:01 > 0:23:04and of those three options, Bethnal Green is the most East End,

0:23:04 > 0:23:06so we'll go for that.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09Yes, as you identified there, you've got south, north and east.

0:23:09 > 0:23:13Eggheads, the answer is north. Holloway.

0:23:13 > 0:23:14- Oh!- Holloway!

0:23:14 > 0:23:16Ooh! What might have been.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19You would've taken the Eggheads' scalp with a Gaultier answer,

0:23:19 > 0:23:23but you both didn't know your third question, so we go to sudden death.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Still very much alive, everything to play for.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27And Bell Boys,

0:23:27 > 0:23:31which Jamaican-born life peer served as the general secretary

0:23:31 > 0:23:37of the Transport and General Workers' Union from 1991 to 2003?

0:23:37 > 0:23:38THEY CONFER

0:23:38 > 0:23:40- Yeah?- Must be.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42I would imagine. Yeah.

0:23:42 > 0:23:43We think Bill Morris.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46Bill Morris is correct!

0:23:46 > 0:23:50Well. You're back in it.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52And the pressure all on the Eggheads.

0:23:52 > 0:23:57Who was the choreographer of the ballets Manon and Mayerling,

0:23:57 > 0:24:02first performed in 1974 and 1978 respectively?

0:24:02 > 0:24:05Two names come to mind - one is Frederick Ashton

0:24:05 > 0:24:07and one is... Is it Kenneth MacMillan?

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Mmm. Frederick Ashton came to my mind

0:24:09 > 0:24:11but I've got nothing to back it up with.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13MacMillan or Ashton?

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Mayerling...

0:24:18 > 0:24:22You don't have a clue from the titles - they don't really help.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Kenneth MacMillan, yeah?

0:24:25 > 0:24:27- I think so.- That's his name.

0:24:27 > 0:24:31Didn't one of them actually die almost on set

0:24:31 > 0:24:35during a performance of Mayerling? Was that Kenneth MacMillan?

0:24:35 > 0:24:36I'm not sure.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39I think it is. It rings a bell.

0:24:39 > 0:24:43I think there's a famous incidence of a leading choreographer

0:24:43 > 0:24:46actually dying in the theatre, in the ballet.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52Mayerling rings a bell for Kenneth MacMillan, but it could go wrong.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54Well, I had Frederick Ashton

0:24:54 > 0:24:57but that was only because I couldn't think of Fred MacMillan...

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Kenneth MacMillan. We'll go for Kenneth MacMillan.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02- What's your answer? - We're not sure on this one.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05But we're going to go for Kenneth MacMillan.

0:25:05 > 0:25:06Kenneth MacMillan.

0:25:06 > 0:25:10Tossing it up between Frederick Ashton and Kenneth MacMillan.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13And you've got the right answer, Eggheads. That's correct.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16Kenneth MacMillan. OK.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18Bell Boys.

0:25:18 > 0:25:21Which British-born American film comic and entertainer

0:25:21 > 0:25:23wrote several volumes of memoirs,

0:25:23 > 0:25:29including Have Tux, Will Travel and I Owe Russia 1,200?

0:25:30 > 0:25:32OK. British-born Americans.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34Bob Hope?

0:25:34 > 0:25:35Yeah.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38Yeah. Who's the guy? Chaplin?

0:25:38 > 0:25:42- Laurel?- Chaplin used to play the violin...

0:25:42 > 0:25:44Was he English?

0:25:44 > 0:25:46I don't think so, no.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48I don't think he was.

0:25:48 > 0:25:51Bob Hope was and he might have written something like Have Tux...

0:25:51 > 0:25:53- That sounds more likely. - Do you think so?

0:25:53 > 0:25:55I don't know.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58I would go for.. I could be wrong but...

0:25:58 > 0:26:00He's a British-born American, certainly.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03And he might owe Russia some money, he thought it was a joke.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05- So are we sticking with that?- Yeah. - Yeah?

0:26:05 > 0:26:09OK. Well, we've thrashed it around.

0:26:09 > 0:26:13Erm, so we're going to go with Bob Hope.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15But not thrashing in the sense of being lost.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18It's the right answer. Bob Hope.

0:26:18 > 0:26:19- Well done!- Well done, guys.

0:26:19 > 0:26:21Yeah, well done to you.

0:26:21 > 0:26:22Bob Hope with Have Tux, Will Travel

0:26:22 > 0:26:25and I Owe Russia 1,200.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28And Eggheads, pressure back on you.

0:26:28 > 0:26:33Which economist and social reformer wrote the 1944 report

0:26:33 > 0:26:36Full Employment In A Free Society?

0:26:36 > 0:26:39Oooh. Keynes? Beveridge?

0:26:39 > 0:26:43Beveridge did a big report on the reform of the social welfare system,

0:26:43 > 0:26:46of which full employment would only be a small...

0:26:46 > 0:26:49Full employment tends to make me think of Keynes.

0:26:49 > 0:26:52It makes you think of an economist. Definitely.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54Van Huyck?

0:26:54 > 0:26:55No, it wouldn't be him.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57Galbraith?

0:26:57 > 0:27:00No, it's too early for Galbraith.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03Was Keynes alive in 1944?

0:27:03 > 0:27:05- I would've thought so.- Yeah?

0:27:05 > 0:27:08Beveridge... It could've been Beveridge I suppose.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11He was the big social reformer.

0:27:11 > 0:27:12He was the social reformer.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14But he's always linked with that.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17He could've written that as well.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19I need an answer, Eggheads.

0:27:19 > 0:27:23Shall we go for Keynes, despite misgivings?

0:27:23 > 0:27:26Yeah. Well, we're thinking it might be Beveridge

0:27:26 > 0:27:29but we don't have his first name, so we do have the first name of

0:27:29 > 0:27:32John Maynard Keynes, who was an economist

0:27:32 > 0:27:33but wasn't a social reformer

0:27:33 > 0:27:37and unfortunately that's what we'll have to offer. John Maynard Keynes.

0:27:37 > 0:27:38John Maynard Keynes.

0:27:38 > 0:27:43For the 1944 report Full Employment In A Free Society.

0:27:44 > 0:27:47Well, report goes with Beveridge.

0:27:47 > 0:27:48and it's William Beveridge.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51Which means, Bell Boys, you've won!

0:27:51 > 0:27:52Well done!

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Well done, mate.

0:27:57 > 0:28:01- Brilliant.- Congratulations, Bell Boys! You've done it again.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04The Eggheads lost two on the bounce.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07The only pity is we can't give you more money but you've got the honour

0:28:07 > 0:28:11of beating the Eggheads. That was really high-quality.

0:28:11 > 0:28:16As I said, high-quality quizzing right into the final round there,

0:28:16 > 0:28:19right into sudden death, and beat the Eggheads at their own game.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22How does that feel? Did you expect when you came here...

0:28:22 > 0:28:24You come with pretty low expectations?

0:28:24 > 0:28:28- Yes, no, we did not expect to win at all, no.- Default is to lose!

0:28:28 > 0:28:30Plan for the worst and hope for the best!

0:28:30 > 0:28:33Well you had the best possible turn-out there, beating the Eggheads

0:28:33 > 0:28:35and you've just won £1,000

0:28:35 > 0:28:38and you are officially cleverer than the Eggheads.
