0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:15Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19The question is: can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, where five quiz challengers pit their wits
0:00:27 > 0:00:31against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain - the Eggheads.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34Challenging our quiz champions today
0:00:34 > 0:00:38are the Oilfield Telstars. This team of colleagues all work
0:00:38 > 0:00:43for the same offshore telecommunications company based in Aberdeen. Let's meet them.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46Hi, I'm John, I'm 26, and I'm an offshore telecoms engineer.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Hi, I'm Ulrik, I'm 25 and an accountant.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52Hi, I'm Michael, I'm 25 and an accountant.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm Simon, 28 and senior account manager.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hi, I'm Andrew, 43, and an area manager.
0:00:58 > 0:01:03John and team, welcome. Offshore meaning you do phones on oil rigs?
0:01:03 > 0:01:08Yes, basically, we provide data and voice services to, em, oil rigs,
0:01:08 > 0:01:14- oil and gas rigs in the North Sea and Africa.- So you fly on helicopters the whole time?
0:01:14 > 0:01:18Personally, I do, yes. These guys are more office based.
0:01:18 > 0:01:25- And you've brought the boss along today.- Somebody has to pay for the taxis!
0:01:25 > 0:01:31- Is Eggheads big on oil rigs? - Yeah, I would think so. You do 12-hour shifts on oil rigs,
0:01:31 > 0:01:37so when everybody knocks off they watch a bit of Eggheads after a shift.
0:01:37 > 0:01:44- I can imagine that. A good way to wind down.- A lot of people do that. That's my understanding, yeah.
0:01:44 > 0:01:49Hello to everyone on an oil rig watching this. Every day there is £1,000 up for grabs.
0:01:49 > 0:01:54If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58So the Eggheads have won the last three games,
0:01:58 > 0:02:03which means that £4,000 says you can't beat them today.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05The first head to head is on Music.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Who would like this?
0:02:08 > 0:02:11- Andrew or Michael? - Are you good at this?
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- I'll do it. - Michael.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18Michael on Music? OK. Against which Egghead?
0:02:18 > 0:02:20I think I'll go with Daphne.
0:02:20 > 0:02:25The 25-year-old versus...the 45-year-old.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Oh, I love you!
0:02:27 > 0:02:33So Michael from the Oilfield Telstars against Daphne from the Eggheads.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Please take your positions in the Question Room.
0:02:37 > 0:02:44- Michael, what sort of music do you want to come up here? - Er, more current than old.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49- And not so much classical. - Not too much opera?- No, please.
0:02:49 > 0:02:55I'll ask each of you three multiple-choice questions. Whoever answers the most wins.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59- Michael, the first or second set? - I'll take the first, please.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Good luck to you.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05Here we go. Which Oasis song includes the lyrics,
0:03:05 > 0:03:10"So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by"?
0:03:14 > 0:03:16It's Don't Look Back In Anger.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20- Straight there. Well done. It certainly is.- Thank you.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Daphne, here's your question.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27Who ain't dead, according to the title
0:03:27 > 0:03:32of a 2008 UK Top Ten single for Scouting For Girls?
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Elvis?
0:03:36 > 0:03:40Elvis Ain't Dead is quite right. So, Michael, your question.
0:03:40 > 0:03:46The British jazz musician Kenny Baker was most famously connected with which instrument?
0:03:49 > 0:03:50Em, trumpet.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53You don't even hang around there!
0:03:54 > 0:03:58- You just knew that? - Em, it was in my head.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02- Well done. Trumpet is right. - Thank you.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Very confident play here, Daphne!
0:04:04 > 0:04:08OK. Your question. See if you can keep up.
0:04:08 > 0:04:13Which artist had a UK number one album in 2011 with Talk That Talk?
0:04:15 > 0:04:20- I think that was Rihanna. - Have you got it at home?
0:04:20 > 0:04:21No!
0:04:21 > 0:04:25Rihanna is the right answer. Well done.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31Let's see where we go from here. Crucial third question.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35Guy Garvey, lead singer of the band Elbow, was born in which town?
0:04:38 > 0:04:44I'm not actually sure about this one, so this will have to be a complete guess.
0:04:44 > 0:04:50And I don't have any sort of inkling as to which one of these three would be the best choice,
0:04:50 > 0:04:55so I'll have to guess. I'll rule out Bakewell. I don't think it's that.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57I'm going to go with...Bourne.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01- Born in Bourne?- Hm. - But he was born in Bury.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Daphne's chance to take the round.
0:05:05 > 0:05:11Which composer's widow married Georg Nikolaus Nissen in 1809
0:05:11 > 0:05:14and worked with her new husband on a biography of her former?
0:05:18 > 0:05:19Hmm.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25I don't think it's Mozart.
0:05:30 > 0:05:31Em...
0:05:33 > 0:05:37Oh, gosh. I'm trying to remember when Beethoven died.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42- Beethoven? - Let's see if the Eggheads know.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46- - I think it's Mozart.- Yeah. - - Is it?
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Michael, you're off the hook.
0:05:48 > 0:05:54You're still in it. Level. We go off the multiple choice now. It's Sudden Death, OK?
0:05:54 > 0:05:59We don't give you alternatives. Which male singer had a UK Top Ten single
0:05:59 > 0:06:04in 1965 with his version of the Beatles' song Yesterday?
0:06:04 > 0:06:07En...John Lennon?
0:06:07 > 0:06:11No, he was in the Beatles. It was Matt Monro.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15OK, Daphne,
0:06:15 > 0:06:18your chance to take the round on Sudden Death.
0:06:18 > 0:06:24Which English composer was appointed organist of Westminster Abbey in 1679?
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Henry Purcell.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32Henry Purcell is the right answer, Daphne. Well done.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Michael, well fought.
0:06:34 > 0:06:39You've just been knocked out. You won't be in the final. Daphne will.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43Please both of you come back here and rejoin your teams.
0:06:43 > 0:06:48The challengers have lost one brain, the Eggheads have lost none so far.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50The next subject is Sport.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53A lot of volunteers for this?
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Can I go?
0:06:55 > 0:06:59I think I'll take this one. I'll take this one, Jeremy.
0:06:59 > 0:07:03- OK, John. And against which Egghead? - Judith?
0:07:03 > 0:07:07- Judith. - I'll take Judith on, please.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09John from the Oilfield Telstars...
0:07:09 > 0:07:12This is where it might turn round.
0:07:12 > 0:07:18Judith on Sport, always fun. To make sure there's no conferring, please go to the Question Room.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22- John, your favourite sports? - Football, rugby, tennis.
0:07:22 > 0:07:28Anything really, apart from cricket. I'm pretty interested in all of them.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Judith, your favourite sports? - I'm not interested in any of them!
0:07:31 > 0:07:38- Not even Subbuteo? - I used to play tennis. I like tennis.- OK, it's Sport.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42- John, the first or the second set? - I'll go first, please.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Here we go.
0:07:45 > 0:07:53Tennis' end of season ATP World Tour finals moved to which city in 2009?
0:07:55 > 0:07:58I want to rule out Lisbon.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00End of ATP...
0:08:00 > 0:08:04I think the calendar is...
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Australia,
0:08:06 > 0:08:09France, London...
0:08:09 > 0:08:12and then...America.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16So the end, I would like to say, would be in...
0:08:16 > 0:08:21- I think it's in London. - London is your answer. Quite right.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Well done. Let's see how Judith does now.
0:08:24 > 0:08:31In which year did AP McCoy have his first winning ride in a professional horse race, Judith?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Well, he was Champion Jockey...
0:08:38 > 0:08:42I mean, and also BBC Personality of the Year.
0:08:42 > 0:08:48I should think he's probably late 30s and he started riding maybe when he was 18.
0:08:48 > 0:08:53So it could be 1976... Wait a second. I can't add now.
0:08:55 > 0:08:562002...
0:08:56 > 0:08:59I should think it's 1992.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03Yeah, it is 1992. There was something very odd!
0:09:03 > 0:09:06I've never been able to do maths!
0:09:06 > 0:09:09OK, but you're right. Well done. John, your question.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13In which position did Ieuan Evans play international rugby union?
0:09:16 > 0:09:18I'm going to rule out scrum-half
0:09:18 > 0:09:25as I think Dwayne Peel was probably around about that time playing scrum-half for Wales.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28I also don't think he played on the wing.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31I'm going to go for flanker, please.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35Wing is the answer, John. Wing.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37So, Judith,
0:09:37 > 0:09:42in football, which Italian word is used for the defending role that is also known as sweeper?
0:09:45 > 0:09:49Well, Libero sounds something about to do with freedom.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52Calcio... Oh.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57I wish I spoke Italian! Mediano...
0:09:57 > 0:10:01- I think it might be Calcio. - Calcio is wrong.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04You need to come and watch some football, Judith.
0:10:04 > 0:10:11- I'll take you to a game one day. I really mean that. The answer is Libero.- Oh!
0:10:11 > 0:10:14- Dave?- It's like a sweeper.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18You just play to protect the two central defenders.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22It's either playing deeper or you play just in front of them.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24That's where the Libero comes from.
0:10:24 > 0:10:29It's patrolling that area so the two central defenders aren't isolated.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32And the freedom to move upfield.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35And distribute the ball.
0:10:35 > 0:10:39- Is that a bit clearer, Judith? - Well, um...marginally.
0:10:39 > 0:10:44- I don't believe you.- Maybe. - OK, John. One each so far.
0:10:44 > 0:10:52Which type of cricketing dismissal is impossible if the bowler's delivery pitches outside leg stump?
0:10:55 > 0:10:59Cricket, as I said before, is not one of my strong areas in sport.
0:10:59 > 0:11:05Could he be caught if the ball was outside the line?
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Possibly.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09LBW...
0:11:12 > 0:11:18- I'm going to go with my first instinct, which is caught, Jeremy. - Let's see if your teammates know.
0:11:18 > 0:11:22We don't think cricket is our strength, either!
0:11:22 > 0:11:24- It is actually LBW.- Oh, OK.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Judith has a chance to go through.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30- Sorry for laughing, Judith. This will give you encouragement.- Yes.
0:11:30 > 0:11:36Malcolm Arnold received a lifetime achievement award at the 2011 UK Coaching Awards
0:11:36 > 0:11:39for his work in which sport?
0:11:40 > 0:11:44Not the Malcolm Arnold I was thinking of!
0:11:44 > 0:11:48A lifetime achievement award. I've never heard...
0:11:48 > 0:11:54I don't know who he is. I should think...probably most likely to be athletics.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59Athletics. If you've got this right, you're in the final round
0:11:59 > 0:12:03and you'll have blasted through on Sport. Is she right, Eggheads?
0:12:03 > 0:12:08- Yes.- You are right! Well done! Sorry, John. You've been knocked out
0:12:08 > 0:12:15and you won't be in the final round. Please, both of you come back and rejoin your teammates.
0:12:16 > 0:12:22Bad luck, John. That LBW question, your mind can play tricks on a question like that.
0:12:22 > 0:12:27Yeah, I think so. Cricket isn't one of my strong areas,
0:12:27 > 0:12:33so I was thinking the ball would spin in and that would be quite unfair to be caught. There you go.
0:12:33 > 0:12:38You've lost two brains. It's a good moment to turn things around.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42The Eggheads have lost no brains. The next subject is Science.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Which challenger would like Science?
0:12:45 > 0:12:49- Yeah, I think I'll take this one. - Are you doing it?- I think so.- Simon?
0:12:49 > 0:12:54- No, no, Andrew.- OK, on the end. The boss. Against which Egghead?
0:12:54 > 0:12:59We have got Kevin and Pat and Tremendous Knowledge Dave as he's known.
0:12:59 > 0:13:05- Don't do Kevin. I think Tremendous. - Yeah, I think we'll take on Tremendous Knowledge Dave.
0:13:05 > 0:13:11- I love the way your nickname is sticking.- We'll see after this round how that's going to stick!
0:13:11 > 0:13:17So it's Andrew from the Oilfield Telstars against Tremendous Knowledge from the Eggheads.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Please take your positions.
0:13:21 > 0:13:28We're going to do Science now. Three questions. Was the plan for you to be doing Science, Andrew?
0:13:28 > 0:13:32I think we all have our specialist subjects,
0:13:32 > 0:13:37- but I think we're clutching at straws.- Freewheeling! OK.
0:13:37 > 0:13:44- Andrew, do you want the first or second set of questions on Science? - Follow tradition. First, please.
0:13:47 > 0:13:54Here we go. The lynx rufus or bobcat is a type of cat native to which continent?
0:13:58 > 0:14:01OK. I'm thinking not Africa.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03Bobcat, lynx.
0:14:03 > 0:14:09Em... Again, Europe I'm straying away from.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13So I'm going to take a guess and go for North America on this one.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17North America is right. Well done.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19This is your question, Dave.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23Which common garden bird has the scientific name passer domesticus?
0:14:27 > 0:14:32Which common garden bird has the scientific name passer domesticus?
0:14:33 > 0:14:36I don't think it's the starling.
0:14:36 > 0:14:41I don't think it's the song thrush. Domesticus indicates house.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44So my answer will be house sparrow.
0:14:44 > 0:14:49House sparrow is right. Well done. Was Kevin giving you advice on how to answer earlier?
0:14:49 > 0:14:52He's given some tips,
0:14:52 > 0:14:56but if I revealed them, he'd have to kill me.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00Something about listening to the question was all I heard.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02It does help. Andrew,
0:15:02 > 0:15:06Jean Piaget, born in Switzerland in 1896,
0:15:06 > 0:15:09became a famous pioneer in which field?
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Piaget...Piaget.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17OK, Switzerland.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20I'm going to stray away from astronomy.
0:15:20 > 0:15:25I have no inkling for the child psychology.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29There are a lot of industrial and chemical engineering works
0:15:29 > 0:15:36in the German part of Switzerland, up near Basel, so right or wrong I'll go for chemical engineering.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Chemical engineering. Eggheads?
0:15:39 > 0:15:42- Child psychology.- They all chorus!
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Child psychology is right. Sorry.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47OK, Dave.
0:15:47 > 0:15:51Your chance to take the lead. In computing and the internet,
0:15:51 > 0:15:55for what does the letter R stand in the abbreviation URL?
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Right, em...
0:16:00 > 0:16:05Something Kevin should have given me tips on is computer terminology!
0:16:05 > 0:16:08Let me have a think.
0:16:09 > 0:16:16URL. I think it's... The URL is basically when you link onto a webpage.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20So it's got to really precede the word link, I think.
0:16:20 > 0:16:26So I'm going to rule out rescue. Rescue link doesn't really work. Or reminder link.
0:16:26 > 0:16:31- I'll go for resource link. - Resource link. Barry would know.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35It's Universal Resource Locator.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39- Locator.- And that's just the web address?- Yeah.
0:16:39 > 0:16:44So URL, the answer is resource. Dave is ahead, Andrew needs this.
0:16:44 > 0:16:51What are the respiratory organs in certain arachnids that consist of fine layers of tissue?
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Goodness me. OK, spiders.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00I don't think...
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Mm. Interesting.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06I don't think it's globe lungs.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Fine layers, I'm thinking possibly book.
0:17:12 > 0:17:17Disc lungs doesn't sound right. I'm going to take a guess here
0:17:17 > 0:17:19and I'll go for book lungs.
0:17:19 > 0:17:24A really great guess. Quite right. Book lungs it is, well done.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Fine layers was the clue.
0:17:26 > 0:17:31Dave, get this right and you're in the final. The anomaly called the Great Attractor
0:17:31 > 0:17:35has been suggested to exist in which location?
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Can you repeat the question?
0:17:41 > 0:17:47The anomaly called the Great Attractor has been suggested to exist in which location?
0:17:47 > 0:17:48Hm.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51I've got no idea.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55So it's probably going to be a daft guess, but the human brain.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59It's almost the opposite, actually. Intergalactic space.
0:17:59 > 0:18:04- It's obviously a lot bigger. - Fair enough.- We go to Sudden Death.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09Back to you, Andrew. Can you win? It's not multiple choice, OK?
0:18:09 > 0:18:16The Shenzhou 5 spacecraft was the first human spaceflight mission by which country?
0:18:20 > 0:18:22I'm going to go for China.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26China is the right answer. Well done.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Dave's question to stay in.
0:18:28 > 0:18:34Which planet's astronomical symbol is a circle with an arrow pointing up and to the right,
0:18:34 > 0:18:38the same symbol used to represent the male in biology?
0:18:38 > 0:18:41Pick any one of nine!
0:18:43 > 0:18:47Right. Sorry, can you just repeat that again, please?
0:18:47 > 0:18:52Which planet's astronomical symbol is a circle with an arrow pointing up and to the right,
0:18:52 > 0:18:56the same symbol used to represent the male in biology?
0:19:00 > 0:19:01I...
0:19:04 > 0:19:06OK, I'll go Jupiter.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10The answer is Mars. Dave, you've been knocked out.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Well done, Andrew!
0:19:12 > 0:19:17- Fantastic!- You did really well on Science. Do both of you come back and we will play on.
0:19:19 > 0:19:24So the challengers have lost two brains and the Eggheads one brain from the final round.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27The last subject before the final is Politics.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30So who would like this?
0:19:30 > 0:19:33We've got Ulrik or S
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- I think it's me! - It's you.- Yes, I think it's me.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40- Are you from the UK? - No, I'm Danish.
0:19:40 > 0:19:48We've had Danish politics before. Let's hope we have some more! Against which Egghead? Kevin or Pat?
0:19:48 > 0:19:52- Let's try Kevin.- OK. Said decisively. Going for it now.
0:19:52 > 0:19:59Knocking out the big man. Ulrik from the Oilfield Telstars versus Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02Please go to the Question Room.
0:20:02 > 0:20:09- I'll ask three questions on Politics in turn. Ulrik, first or second set? - I'll go first, please.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12Good luck!
0:20:12 > 0:20:17The Fixed Term Parliament Act that was passed in September, 2011,
0:20:17 > 0:20:23provides for elections to be held on the first Thursday in May every how many years?
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- I think it's five years. - Nicely done. Five years is correct.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Good start!
0:20:33 > 0:20:34Kevin,
0:20:34 > 0:20:38which African city hosted the UN Climate Change Conference in 2011?
0:20:41 > 0:20:45Yeah. I think Cairo was a bit otherwise engaged.
0:20:45 > 0:20:49I don't think it was Lagos. I think it was Durban.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51Durban is the right answer.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Ulrik, back to you.
0:20:54 > 0:21:00I feel bad, but which British Prime Minister reportedly said to a US President,
0:21:00 > 0:21:02"This is no time to go wobbly, George"?
0:21:06 > 0:21:07Well...
0:21:07 > 0:21:11I suppose it was to George Bush Senior.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Or Junior.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16So it could be either Margaret... or Tony Blair.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Tony Blair.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22It's actually Margaret Thatcher.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25- You thought Senior.- Yeah. - It was the first Gulf War.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Kevin, your chance for the lead.
0:21:27 > 0:21:34The constituency that includes the Houses of Parliament was a safe seat for which party in 2010?
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Hmm.
0:21:40 > 0:21:41It's not LibDem,
0:21:41 > 0:21:43but...
0:21:43 > 0:21:45I...
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Conservative.
0:21:48 > 0:21:52Conservative is the right answer. Well done.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Ulrik, you need to get this.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58In Irish politics, which post is referred to by the name Tanaiste?
0:22:02 > 0:22:04In Irish politics.
0:22:06 > 0:22:11I have absolutely no idea. Let's try Finance Minister.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15It's Deputy Prime Minister. You've been knocked out by Kevin.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Brave to go into Politics
0:22:18 > 0:22:24with a Danish background. You won't be in the final. Kevin will. Both please rejoin your teams.
0:22:25 > 0:22:30- So a comeback of sorts there, John. - Yeah, we're trying to come back,
0:22:30 > 0:22:34- but hopefully we've saved the best two until last.- Let's see.
0:22:34 > 0:22:38It's time for our final round, which is General Knowledge.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Of course, those of you who lost
0:22:40 > 0:22:46won't be allowed to take part. So John, Ulrik and Michael from the Oilfield Telstars
0:22:46 > 0:22:52and Tremendous Knowledge Dave from the Eggheads, please leave the studio.
0:22:52 > 0:22:57- Good luck, Simon and Andrew.- Thank you.- You're playing for £4,000.
0:22:57 > 0:23:03Pat, Judith, Kevin and Daphne are playing for something money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:03 > 0:23:11I will ask each team three questions. They're all general knowledge and you can confer.
0:23:11 > 0:23:16So Oilfield Telstars, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:23:16 > 0:23:19- Would you like to go first or second?- First.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Here we go.
0:23:22 > 0:23:27Good luck. What part of a Roman soldier's equipment were his caligi?
0:23:29 > 0:23:31- Equipment?- Caligi...
0:23:31 > 0:23:35OK, I don't think it's boots. They wore sandals.
0:23:35 > 0:23:40- Caligi...callipers... - Callipers.- Trousers?- Trousers.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Would they wear gloves?
0:23:43 > 0:23:46- My...- Callipers.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51- Possibly. I think trousers would be my guess.- I'll go with that as well.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55OK, I think we'll go for trousers.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57- Help us out, Eggheads.- It's boots.
0:23:57 > 0:24:02- Boots.- Caligula, the emperor, was nicknamed Little Boots.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06When he was a child, he was on campaign with his father
0:24:06 > 0:24:10and became a mascot for the soldiers around the camp.
0:24:10 > 0:24:17They gave him a pair of these little army boots. He became known as Little Boots, hence Caligula.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19- So the name came from... - From the nickname.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23- Sorry. The answer is boots. - Oh, dear.
0:24:24 > 0:24:25Eggheads,
0:24:25 > 0:24:29in 2011, BBC Radio 7 was relaunched under what name?
0:24:33 > 0:24:38- It's BBC 6 Music. - No. No, no, no.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42Cos that exists anyway. It's Radio 4 Extra I think, isn't it?
0:24:42 > 0:24:45- I don't know.- I think it is.
0:24:45 > 0:24:50Radio 5 Live is a separate station. BBC 6 Music is a separate station.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54It was under threat, but was then reprieved.
0:24:54 > 0:24:59Radio 7 was a separate one. It's the only thing it could be, I think.
0:24:59 > 0:25:04I think Radio 4 Extra because the other two both exist separately.
0:25:04 > 0:25:09- Yeah, let's go for that, then. - We'll go for Radio 4 Extra.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12Completely right. Radio 4 Extra.
0:25:13 > 0:25:14OK.
0:25:14 > 0:25:19- You need to get this one right. - Yeah, we definitely do.
0:25:19 > 0:25:24In which city are the headquarters of Germany's Bundesbank?
0:25:24 > 0:25:29I don't think Frankfurt. Is Frankfurt a financial district?
0:25:29 > 0:25:31- I don't know.- Munich?
0:25:31 > 0:25:37I don't think Bonn. Munich... When you think of Munich, you think of the beer festival.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40- Financial district.- Bonn?
0:25:40 > 0:25:45- I don't know. We're really... - We're clutching at straws!
0:25:45 > 0:25:49Which one do you think isn't likely? Which one are you going to rule out?
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Which one is too far out there?
0:25:52 > 0:25:58Like you say, Munich, I don't think I would go with that. Bonn or...
0:25:58 > 0:25:59OK.
0:25:59 > 0:26:03- Frankfurt, maybe. You don't think it's Frankfurt.- I don't.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06- But I was wrong on the last one. - Right, OK.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09- So pick a...- Pick an option?- Yeah.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11You don't think it's Munich?
0:26:11 > 0:26:13It could be.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20I would... Bundesbank, Munich?
0:26:20 > 0:26:25Big city. I would go with Munich. It's maybe a bit too obvious!
0:26:25 > 0:26:28- Go with Munich. - It's too obvious?- Possibly.
0:26:28 > 0:26:33- But... OK. You make the call. - Struggling on this one, aren't we?
0:26:35 > 0:26:39Again, Jeremy, this is a bit of a process of elimination.
0:26:39 > 0:26:43I don't think we've got it right, so we'll go with Munich.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46Munich is your answer. Frankfurt.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50Oh, we cancelled that one right at the start!
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Is the European Central Bank
0:26:52 > 0:26:57- in Frankfurt as well?- Yeah. - And the Stock Exchange.
0:26:57 > 0:27:03So you could say they are all together. They're all there in Frankfurt.
0:27:03 > 0:27:08- That's where all the money happens. - In Europe.- Eggheads, get this right and you've taken it.
0:27:08 > 0:27:13Henry Cort was an innovator in which industry?
0:27:14 > 0:27:15Iron.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Iron, yeah.
0:27:17 > 0:27:21The puddling method of producing iron. That's it.
0:27:21 > 0:27:25- That's iron, Jeremy. - You didn't really hesitate.
0:27:25 > 0:27:29You didn't think of being uncertain to make other people feel better?
0:27:29 > 0:27:33- Sorry!- There's something quite brutal about you Eggheads on form.
0:27:33 > 0:27:39The correct answer is that Henry Cort was an innovator in iron.
0:27:39 > 0:27:43You've taken the final round and the contest. You have won!
0:27:49 > 0:27:54Giving them the first question can be difficult, but the second...
0:27:54 > 0:27:58They can just go for it. They look friendly,
0:27:58 > 0:28:03- but in a quiz situation they're violent.- Absolutely. Very good.
0:28:03 > 0:28:09- I hope you enjoyed it.- Indeed. - Commiserations. The Eggheads have done what comes naturally.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11They still reign supreme.
0:28:11 > 0:28:15You won't be going home with £4,000, so the money rolls over.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:18 > 0:28:22Join us next time to see if a new team can defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26£5,000 says that they don't. Until then, goodbye.
