0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The 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 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:36And challenging our resident quiz champions today are the Quizisists.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39This team are all studying physics at Swansea University,
0:00:39 > 0:00:43and they regularly attend the quiz at their local, the Uplands Tavern.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45- Let's meet them.- Hi. I'm Tom.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47I'm 20 and I'm from Bridgend.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Hi. I'm Iori. I'm 20 and I'm from Hertfordshire.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53Hi, I'm Jonty. I'm 22 and I'm from Cornwall.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56Hi. I'm Stuart. I'm 21 and I'm from Chelmsford.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Hi. I'm Michael. I'm 24 and I'm from Newport.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02So Tom and team, welcome. So you're all physics students?
0:01:02 > 0:01:05- Yes.- Of varying degrees of aptitude.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Really? Do you want to go into any more detail on that?
0:01:08 > 0:01:10Stuart's good and the rest are average.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12Stuart's good and the rest are average. OK.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14- You're hoping science will come up? - I'd like it to.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16If it doesn't, we've got that excuse.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19You have. You hope science will come up five times.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- Yes. That would be nice. - I remember physics from school.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Do you still use those machines like the Van de Graaff generator?
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- Only to mess about with. - What was your one, Chris?
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- The Wimshurst machine.- The Wimshurst machine, do you use that?
0:01:30 > 0:01:33If we were to use that, we'd have to build it ourselves.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35But it would be more for fun than actual physics.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37So how are you doing it if you're not grappling?
0:01:37 > 0:01:39We're more theorists.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42So it's maths, computers and talking about it.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Computers, right. OK. Well, good luck to you.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47See if you can give yourselves a boost
0:01:47 > 0:01:49- by beating the Eggheads. - That would be nice.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:55 > 0:01:57the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01So, Quizisists, the Eggheads have won the last 12 games.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04Which means £13,000 says that you can't beat them today.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of,
0:02:07 > 0:02:11- not science, but politics. Who would like this?- Stuart.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- He doesn't look happy. - It's not what he wants but I think he gets the most right,
0:02:14 > 0:02:17- whether he likes it or not. - Stuart. OK.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- It's up to you, mate. - The unknown or Barry?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23I say either Barry or Dave, cos we've got plans for the others.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27You've got plans for the others. I love that.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31- Not like devious plans. - That came across more nefarious.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34We mean, you know, a game plan.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37So, Stuart. Who do you want to play? I think I'll try Barry.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41OK. So Stuart from the Quizisists against Barry from the Eggheads.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43To ensure there is no conferring,
0:02:43 > 0:02:46would you please take your positions in the question room.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Stuart, you're going to be good at politics?
0:02:49 > 0:02:51Erm. No.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56Cos you've recently taken up kickboxing, so that's got to help.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59- Yeah, definitely. Yeah. - Tell us about the kickboxing.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02It's just a friend told me she was going to go along
0:03:02 > 0:03:04to a kickboxing tutorial thing.
0:03:04 > 0:03:09And I went along to that with her and enjoyed it and then started going every week.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12OK, so if Barry gets two right out of three, just lunge.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Lunge over at him, and you'll take the round.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18You'll have three multiple choice questions on politics.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21You can choose the first or the second set of questions.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23- Which do you want? - Can I go second, please?
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Here we go with your first question, Barry.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32In 2010, which politician was inadvertently caught on microphone
0:03:32 > 0:03:37calling a voter in Rochdale a bigoted woman? Was it...
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Don't you just love it when they're inadvertently caught?
0:03:43 > 0:03:45In this instance, it was Gordon Brown.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Gordon Brown is the right answer.
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Stuart, your question. In 1993, which politician caused mirth
0:03:53 > 0:03:57when he appeared to mime his way through the Welsh National Anthem?
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Well, I have no clue, really.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06But I'm going to go with John Prescott.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Do your team-mates know? look, cos this is the big one in Wales.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12I would have said Redwood. But I don't know.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Yeah, it was actually John Redwood.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16He was the Welsh Secretary, and he glazed over, didn't he?
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Yes, definitely.
0:04:19 > 0:04:20OK, Barry. The Outer Space Treaty
0:04:20 > 0:04:23which formed the basis of international space law
0:04:23 > 0:04:28was signed by the UK, the US and the Soviet Union in which decade?
0:04:32 > 0:04:34Oh, what an interesting question.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37It couldn't possibly be in the 1950s
0:04:37 > 0:04:41because until 1957 there wasn't anything in outer space.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43'57 was when the first Sputnik went up.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46So was it in the '60s or the '70s?
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Well, there was a lot of activity in the '60s
0:04:49 > 0:04:51because obviously Americans landed on the moon in '69.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54So it's possible that it could have been done then.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Or did they leave it till a little bit later?
0:04:56 > 0:04:58I think they'd have tried to resolve the issues
0:04:58 > 0:05:01a bit earlier rather than later, so I'll go for the 1960s.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Very good, Barry. You're right. It is the 1960s.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Back to you, Stuart.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Which American president was born
0:05:08 > 0:05:11in Tampico, Illinois, in 1911. Was it...
0:05:17 > 0:05:18Again, it's going to be a guess.
0:05:23 > 0:05:251911.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Could I go for...
0:05:33 > 0:05:34..Lyndon B Johnson, please?
0:05:34 > 0:05:38It's not Lyndon B Johnson. It's Ronald Reagan.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Now, because you got that one wrong, you are out, I'm afraid.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42There's no way back in these three questions.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45So Barry has taken it with two questions right out of three.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Please, both of you, return to your teams.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53The challengers have lost one brain from the final round.
0:05:53 > 0:05:54The Eggheads have lost no brains.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58The next subject is music. So who's the musician?
0:05:58 > 0:06:00That'll be Jonty, I think. Yeah.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Jonty? And which Egghead would you like, Jonty?
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Can I take on Chris, please?
0:06:05 > 0:06:08OK, so Jonty from the Quizisists versus Chris from the Eggheads.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10To ensure there's no conferring,
0:06:10 > 0:06:12please take your positions in the question room.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Do you enjoy your music, Jonty?
0:06:16 > 0:06:17I like all kinds of music.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19I've got '60s and '70s written down here,
0:06:19 > 0:06:22so you obviously like stuff from before you were born.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Yes, I was influenced by my parents quite a bit.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27What did they get you into?
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Fleetwood Mac, Jimi Hendrix.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32So you're a good, unbiased judge
0:06:32 > 0:06:34of whether music then was better than it is now?
0:06:34 > 0:06:38- Possibly, yeah.- I bet you think that, Chris, don't you?
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Yeah, half of it's not music at all in my book.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43Music is the subject. I'm sorry we haven't done science yet.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46You're looking forward to that. You're against Chris.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49And you can choose the first or the second set of questions, Jonty.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51I'd like to go first, please.
0:06:53 > 0:06:54Here we go.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57The choral group, The King's Singers,
0:06:57 > 0:07:00was founded at which university in the 1960s? Is it...
0:07:02 > 0:07:05This isn't one of my strong points.
0:07:05 > 0:07:10For some reason, I am being drawn towards Cambridge.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12So I think I'll go for Cambridge.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16Kings College Cambridge. You're right. Cambridge is the answer.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Chris.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Best That You Can Do is the subtitle of which song,
0:07:21 > 0:07:25a UK top ten single for Christopher Cross in the 1980s? Is it...
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Best That You Can Do. It's not Carrie's Theme.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35That's a Stephen King horror story.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39It's not Arthur's Theme. That's The Moon And New York City.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41So it's Dorothy Matthews. Tootsie's Theme.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43JEREMY LAUGHS
0:07:43 > 0:07:45You say it with such conviction, but you're wrong.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49It's Arthur's Theme. Which I guess was the film with John Gielgud.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52- Yes, it was, yeah.- And Dudley Moore.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53It's a lovely song as well.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56- He did Sailing as well, Christopher Cross.- He did.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59Sorry, Chris. OK, back to you.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01You're in the lead here, what about this?
0:08:01 > 0:08:03This is a good moment, Jonty.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06The Tom Tom Club, who had UK hits in the 1980s
0:08:06 > 0:08:08with Wordy Rappinghood
0:08:08 > 0:08:10and Under The Boardwalk,
0:08:10 > 0:08:13featured a husband and wife from which other group? Was it...
0:08:21 > 0:08:24This is... I have no idea, really.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31I haven't really listened to any of them that much,
0:08:31 > 0:08:34but I am going to go for Talking Heads.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40- Smart play. You're right. Well done. - Yeah!- Oh, fair play, mate.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42OK. Chris, your question.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44If you get this wrong, Chris, you're out.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47Who received the Artist Of The Decade Award
0:08:47 > 0:08:50at the 2011 Classic Brit Awards? Was it...
0:08:56 > 0:08:57Usually I know this sort of stuff.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- Artist, singular?- I'll do it again.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Who received the Artist Of The Decade Award
0:09:04 > 0:09:06at the 2011 Classic Brit Awards? Was it...
0:09:11 > 0:09:14Well, Il Divo's a group. There's four of them.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16So it would be artists.
0:09:16 > 0:09:20He's Finnish, isn't he, Arvo Part?
0:09:22 > 0:09:25Rings no bells. Antonio Pappano.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Antonio Pappano is the wrong answer.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29The correct answer is Il Divo.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33- Was it?- They're not an artist. They're a group.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Chris, you've been knocked out. Jonty, well done!
0:09:35 > 0:09:38- Thank you.- How about that?
0:09:38 > 0:09:40The physicist gets through on music.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Brilliant, brilliant work. In two questions as well.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47So you will be in the final, Jonty. Do come back and rejoin your teams.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51- Chris, that was painful. - Yeah.- None out of three.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54Well, yeah. Artist, singular,
0:09:54 > 0:09:57does not apply to Il Divo, who are a group.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59That was what the Brits called them.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Yeah. Well, they're wrong.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Very sporting, they are.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06The challengers have lost one brain
0:10:06 > 0:10:09and the Eggheads have also lost a brain now from the final round
0:10:09 > 0:10:12cos Chris is out. The next subject is sport.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- Who's the sporting Quizisist? - I'll take this one.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- Confident. Nice.- OK, Iori against...
0:10:20 > 0:10:21I want Daphne.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25- You're absolutely certain about that?- Absolutely.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29So Iori from the Quizisists against Daphne from the Eggheads on sport.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32And to ensure there's no conferring, please go to the question room.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34So sport, Iori, which I know is your thing.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Yeah, I like to think I'm pretty good at it.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Yeah, I'm all right. I play it a bit.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41And you played American football?
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Yeah, in my foundation year.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45- So how? Were you doing that at Swansea?- Yeah.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47With all the kit and everything else?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49We were all full padded up, full contact.
0:10:49 > 0:10:50Just running into people,
0:10:50 > 0:10:53chasing after an oddly-shaped ball. It was good.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55- And then someone ran into you? - My own team mate ran into me
0:10:55 > 0:10:58and, kind of, broke my leg horribly.
0:10:58 > 0:10:59- It wasn't pretty.- Ooh!
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Can you do American football again?
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Yeah, I was hoping to go back to it next year.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05OK. Well, good luck with that.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Daphne. Sport. Are you ready?
0:11:07 > 0:11:10Mmm...as I'll ever be, yes.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Iori, three multiple choice questions,
0:11:13 > 0:11:16- you can choose first or second. - Can I go second, please?
0:11:19 > 0:11:23Daphne, here's your first question. Which British driver finished second
0:11:23 > 0:11:25in the points for the 2011 Formula One season? Is it...
0:11:30 > 0:11:33I think it was...
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Jenson Button.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39Jenson Button is the right answer, Daphne. Well done.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44OK, Iori. Who was the BBC's Overseas Sports Personality Of The Year
0:11:44 > 0:11:48in both 2008 and 2009? Was it...
0:11:53 > 0:11:55I don't think it was Usain Bolt.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58And I think...
0:11:58 > 0:12:02at that time Cristiano Ronaldo was very big,
0:12:02 > 0:12:04so Cristiano Ronaldo?
0:12:04 > 0:12:08No, it wasn't, it was Mr Bolt. Usain Bolt was the answer.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Daphne, you're ahead. Your second question.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Which country was awarded the Fair Play Award by FIFA
0:12:13 > 0:12:15at the 2010 football World Cup? Was it...
0:12:20 > 0:12:21I don't watch football.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23I don't think it was England,
0:12:23 > 0:12:28because they're not great at playing fair.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32I'm going to guess that it was Spain.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Nicely done, Daphne. You're quite right. Well done. It was Spain.
0:12:35 > 0:12:39So she's got two and, Iori, you've got none.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41You've got to get this one right.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Andrew "Chubby" Chandler was a player of,
0:12:44 > 0:12:48and became an agent in, which sport?
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Chubby Chandler.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56I don't think it was basketball.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58But I could be way off here.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01And I'm not very good at Union.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06But I'm...just not sure.
0:13:06 > 0:13:07I want to say golf.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10So I'm just going to go with golf.
0:13:10 > 0:13:14But it's probably basketball.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16You talk yourselves down too much, your team.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Golf is the answer. Well done. You got it. You're still in it.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21If Daphne gets this right, she's won.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25Which former Indian cricket captain had the nickname Jumbo.
0:13:25 > 0:13:26Daphne, was it...
0:13:33 > 0:13:35I don't know this.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Jumbo. It sounds as though he's a big chap.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47Anil Kumble's a bowler.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50So...
0:13:50 > 0:13:52how about Ganguly?
0:13:52 > 0:13:56- His name's Kumble rather than "Kumbell".- Oh, was it him?
0:13:56 > 0:13:58- It is Anil Kumble.- Oh, right.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01Right. Well, she's given you a little way back in here, Iori.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03But you have to get this one right, OK?
0:14:03 > 0:14:06Which British welterweight boxer won a shock victory
0:14:06 > 0:14:10over Roberto Duran in 1982,
0:14:10 > 0:14:12in a bout that was described by Ring Magazine
0:14:12 > 0:14:14as the upset of the year? Was it...
0:14:19 > 0:14:23Boxing, I'm not even close to touched up on, so...
0:14:25 > 0:14:27I'm going to say Colin Jones.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30But that's cos it's the most English name on there.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34But I wouldn't have a clue.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38It's not Colin Jones actually. Kirkland Laing is the right answer.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42So, Iori, sorry, you've been beaten by Daphne on sports.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44But then, she does play American football as well.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47You're resting at the moment because of injury yourself,
0:14:47 > 0:14:48Daphne, aren't you?
0:14:48 > 0:14:52Both of you come back and rejoin your teams, please.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55Well, I don't know what to suggest now.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57Bringing out the Van de Graaff generator.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Any thoughts on strategy?
0:14:59 > 0:15:02It would have to depend what the next round is.
0:15:02 > 0:15:03You want science.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07Yes. Or film and TV for Mike.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09As it stands, the challengers have lost two brains.
0:15:09 > 0:15:13The Eggheads have lost one brain. The next subject is geography.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16- That's me.- Has that torn it?
0:15:16 > 0:15:18I have the disadvantage that I've travelled a bit,
0:15:18 > 0:15:20so I've been designated geography.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23OK, Tom. You're geography. Against which Egghead?
0:15:23 > 0:15:24Could be Kevin or Dave.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28Erm...I'll take on Dave.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31OK. So Tom, from the Quizisists,
0:15:31 > 0:15:33versus Dave from the Eggheads on geography.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Please take your positions in the question room.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Tom, you said you've done some travelling?
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Yeah, I like to think I've been about.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42I've been over most of Europe with my family.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44Me and my dad, for his fiftieth,
0:15:44 > 0:15:47went to France and through Belgium, on a World War I tour.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49World War I. So you were looking at sights and everything?
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Yes. There was a lot of time walking about.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54At one point, we were looking for our relatives.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57- Did you find them? - Yeah, we had a great cousin
0:15:57 > 0:16:00or great uncle at Cambrai, I think.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02- And you found the tomb? - Yeah.- The grave.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05- And was that an extraordinary moment?- It was surprising.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09It was day four, I think, or day three,
0:16:09 > 0:16:12and we, all of a sudden, stopped and recognised the last name.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Tell us about him.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16We couldn't find a lot, other than
0:16:16 > 0:16:19I know Cambrai was one of the first great tank battles.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22But that's all I know. It was more for my dad, if I'm honest.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Three questions on geography in turn.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27And Tom, you can choose the first or the second set of questions.
0:16:27 > 0:16:28I'd like to go second.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Tremendous Knowledge Dave starts.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Minneapolis is the largest city in which US state?
0:16:40 > 0:16:43Well, Boston's the largest one in Massachusetts.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46Detroit, largest one in Michigan.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48So my answer is Minnesota.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Minnesota is quite right. Well done.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Back to you, Tom. Your first question.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55The area known as the Wallops,
0:16:55 > 0:16:58consisting of Over, Nether and Middle Wallop
0:16:58 > 0:17:00is in which English county? Is it...
0:17:04 > 0:17:07The Wallops. I have heard of them.
0:17:07 > 0:17:08But I'm not sure when from.
0:17:08 > 0:17:14I'd say it would be Dorset or Somerset.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17Cos they're in that sort of area where they'd use Wallop.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20And Somerset is a little bigger. So I think I'll go Somerset, please.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22I like the logic and I went there myself,
0:17:22 > 0:17:25- but it's actually Hampshire.- Oh. - Hampshire is the answer.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Dave. Here's your second question.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30The world's second oldest national park,
0:17:30 > 0:17:33the Royal National Park, was established in which country
0:17:33 > 0:17:35- in 1879?- Was it...
0:17:40 > 0:17:42Right. I don't like the sound of this one.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45But I'm going to try and apply something.
0:17:45 > 0:17:50- It's Royal, just R-O-Y-A-L, I presume?- Yes, it is.- Right, OK.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56It's difficult.
0:17:58 > 0:17:59All of them are plausible.
0:17:59 > 0:18:04But just solely on the fact that the national park classifications,
0:18:04 > 0:18:09there are quite a lot in that country, North America...
0:18:09 > 0:18:12Well, sorry, North America, I'd go for Canada.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16Canada's just the one that I'd plump for. But with no amount of...
0:18:17 > 0:18:19..you know, surety.
0:18:19 > 0:18:20So I'll go for Canada, please.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23- No, it's Australia.- Fair enough.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26So, see if you can draw level, Tom.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29The stratovolcano, Ojos del Salado,
0:18:29 > 0:18:32the world's highest active volcano
0:18:32 > 0:18:35lies on the border of Argentina and which other country? Is it...
0:18:40 > 0:18:41When you mentioned it, I thought,
0:18:41 > 0:18:44if a South American country comes up, I'm fine.
0:18:44 > 0:18:45I can't use that any more.
0:18:45 > 0:18:51Largest border has got to be with Chile, but it's quite active.
0:18:51 > 0:18:52Oh no, and Brazil.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Not sure if Uruguay is known for its volcanicity.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59I will go with border with Chile.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03Nice one, you're correct. Chile is right. So you're equal.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05OK. Your third question, Dave.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07The European long distance footpath, E1, begins in Norway,
0:19:07 > 0:19:10and ends in which other country? Is it...
0:19:14 > 0:19:16I don't know.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18It'll have to be a plump one out of three.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21And I'm going to go for Italy.
0:19:21 > 0:19:22Italy is quite right.
0:19:22 > 0:19:23JEREMY LAUGHS
0:19:23 > 0:19:26- It doesn't seem fair, does it? - No. It's not fair at all.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30OK, Quizisists. You need this one. Otherwise you're out, Tom.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33What is the name of the village in County Antrim
0:19:33 > 0:19:36that was designed in the style of a Cornish village
0:19:36 > 0:19:40by the architect Clough Williams-Ellis? Is it...
0:19:44 > 0:19:46I have at least two relatives
0:19:46 > 0:19:48that are going to kill me if I get this wrong.
0:19:49 > 0:19:50And I don't know.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Cushendun.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55I'm trying to think what sounds Cornish.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58There's Frome in Somerset.
0:19:59 > 0:20:03I will take a stab with Cushendun.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07- And it is right.- Come on! - Cushendun is correct.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10You're equal after three questions.
0:20:10 > 0:20:11We go to sudden death.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13I don't give you the alternatives.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17- Are you ready, Dave...- Yep. - ..with your tremendous knowledge?
0:20:17 > 0:20:20In which ocean is the island nation of Tuvalu located?
0:20:20 > 0:20:23Tuvalu is in the Pacific Ocean.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Correct. Over to you, Tom.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Trinity and St Brelade are the names
0:20:28 > 0:20:34of two of the 12 parishes of which Channel Island?
0:20:34 > 0:20:35Can I have Dave's question?
0:20:35 > 0:20:39Which Channel Island? Jersey.
0:20:39 > 0:20:40Jersey is correct.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44Well done. Dave, your question.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47What is the southernmost island of the Inner Hebrides,
0:20:47 > 0:20:50its principle towns being Bowmore and Port Ellen?
0:20:54 > 0:20:55Let's have a think.
0:20:55 > 0:20:59You've got Mull and Skye in the Outer Hebrides.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Inner Hebrides.
0:21:05 > 0:21:06I'll go Uist.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09- No, it's Islay.- Islay. Fair enough.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Famous for its malt whisky. It's spelt I-S-L-A-Y, of course.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Tom, you can take the round if you get this one,
0:21:14 > 0:21:18- knock another Egghead out. That'd be great.- That'd be nice.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Which city in the north of England has a street
0:21:20 > 0:21:23named Land Of Green Ginger?
0:21:29 > 0:21:32It's one of those questions where you think, just pick a city.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35And I've forgotten every city in the north of England.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40- Carlisle?- No, it's Hull.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43OK, so you're level. It's sudden death
0:21:43 > 0:21:44and we go back to you, Dave.
0:21:44 > 0:21:45What is the capital city
0:21:45 > 0:21:49of the province of Prince Edward Island in Canada?
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Prince Edward Island. Just have a think.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Go through my provinces.
0:21:59 > 0:22:03Right, I'm going to go for Charlottetown.
0:22:03 > 0:22:04Well done. You're correct.
0:22:04 > 0:22:05Charlottetown it is.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07So you need this, Tom.
0:22:07 > 0:22:11Which African city is named after the birthplace
0:22:11 > 0:22:14of the explorer, David Livingstone?
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Which African city is named after the birthplace
0:22:19 > 0:22:21of the explorer, David Livingstone?
0:22:26 > 0:22:29There is something like a Charlottestown,
0:22:29 > 0:22:31or a something-town as an African city.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34And I cannot remember what it is called. Charlottestown?
0:22:34 > 0:22:36That may have got into your head
0:22:36 > 0:22:38from the answer to the last question.
0:22:38 > 0:22:39It's Blantyre, in Malawi.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43Who can tell us about Blantyre in the UK then?
0:22:43 > 0:22:45It's southeast of Glasgow.
0:22:45 > 0:22:46It's not far away from Glasgow.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48Just a short train ride out from Glasgow.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Isn't that amazing? Tom, sorry.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52But you took him to sudden death.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55You did well to do that. And he is very, very knowledgeable, our Dave,
0:22:55 > 0:22:57as we are discovering, in many areas.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59Dave, you're in the final. Tom, you're not.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02If you both come back, we will play the final round.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04This is what we've been playing towards.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08It is time for the final round, which is general knowledge.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:23:11 > 0:23:12won't take part in this round.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16So, Tom, Iori and Stuart from the Quizisists,
0:23:16 > 0:23:20and Chris from the Eggheads, please leave the studio.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Well, Jonty and Michael,
0:23:22 > 0:23:25you're playing to win the Quizisists £13,000.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27And they'll be very grateful to you if you get it.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30Kevin, Dave, Daphne and Barry, you're playing for something
0:23:30 > 0:23:34that money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36I'm going to ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39This time the questions are all general knowledge
0:23:39 > 0:23:43and you can confer with each other. So, Quizisists, the question is,
0:23:43 > 0:23:45are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:23:45 > 0:23:48- Why not?- Easy.- Yeah! Come on!
0:23:48 > 0:23:50So do you want to go first or second?
0:23:50 > 0:23:52I think we've decided first, please.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58Good luck. Here we go. Someone with mal de mer
0:23:58 > 0:24:00is suffering from what complaint? Is it...
0:24:04 > 0:24:06What do you reckon?
0:24:09 > 0:24:13- Isn't mal like malady?- Malady?
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Which of those? Isn't seasickness the only real...
0:24:16 > 0:24:18- De mer.- Of the sea?- Oh, yeah!
0:24:18 > 0:24:20De la mer, of the sea.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Jonty's French coming in handy. We think it's seasickness.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26- Seasickness is right. Well done. - Good work.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30Eggheads. Who directed the 2011 film version
0:24:30 > 0:24:33of the Michael Morpurgo book, War Horse?
0:24:36 > 0:24:38- Spielberg.- Spielberg.- Yeah.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41He directed it, definitely.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44Oh yeah, he directed it. It's Steven Spielberg.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46Steven Spielberg is the right answer. Well done.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48Your second question, guys. Hang on in there.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52For what does the letter C stand in the acronym BECTU,
0:24:52 > 0:24:54the name for the trade union
0:24:54 > 0:24:56representing workers in broadcasting,
0:24:56 > 0:24:58entertainment and associated fields? Is it...
0:25:03 > 0:25:07- What do you reckon?- I think cinematograph probably sounds...
0:25:07 > 0:25:09- I know, it sounds complicated to me.- Yeah.
0:25:09 > 0:25:14I'm drawn towards casting, I think.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Casting.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20If U is, like, union, cameras union doesn't really work,
0:25:20 > 0:25:23- but casting union could work, couldn't it?- Yeah.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26I think we're leaning towards casting, please.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30- You don't sound very certain. - We're not.- No, we're not at all.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33BECTU stands for Broadcasting, Entertainment, Cinematograph
0:25:33 > 0:25:38- and Theatre Union. And you had it and then you moved off it.- Yeah.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Yeah. Old-fashioned name.
0:25:40 > 0:25:44Eggheads. To take the lead. Michael Mansfield, born in 1941,
0:25:44 > 0:25:47found fame as a leading name in which field? Is it...
0:25:50 > 0:25:53- Law.- He's a barrister, isn't he? - Yeah.- High profile.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56He's a well-known barrister. It's in the law.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58The law is the right answer.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01OK. So they've got two, you've got one.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05£13,000 up for grabs. People have done it with only one player left.
0:26:05 > 0:26:06Don't lose hope. You can do it.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08But you do need to get this one right.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10If you don't, the contest is over.
0:26:10 > 0:26:14In 1541, Thomas Culpeper and Francis Dereham
0:26:14 > 0:26:18were both executed after being found guilty of relationships
0:26:18 > 0:26:22with which of Henry VIII's wives? Was it...
0:26:28 > 0:26:29- I have no clue.- No, I'll be honest.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31I was hoping Seymour was going to come up,
0:26:31 > 0:26:34cos I know she didn't have any affairs.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40- And the date doesn't help me either, to be honest with you.- No.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43- Shall we guess?- Yeah.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Can you think of the order of them?
0:26:48 > 0:26:51- History is not my strong point. - I'm trying to think.
0:26:51 > 0:26:56Would it be one that he beheaded or one that he divorced?
0:26:56 > 0:27:00I would think that it would be one that he beheaded.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02- Just to get back at them. - Yeah, exactly.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04- But that still doesn't help. - No.- What do you think?
0:27:04 > 0:27:08For some reason, I'm being drawn to Catherine of Aragon,
0:27:08 > 0:27:10but there's no logic behind that.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13Unfortunately, we just don't have any idea whatsoever.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16We've tried to think about it
0:27:16 > 0:27:18and we just have to go Catherine of Aragon.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21OK, Catherine of Aragon is your answer.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24I think this is Daphne's favourite subject.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26- Who was it?- Catherine Howard.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28The answer is Catherine Howard.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32Guys, I'm sorry to tell you, the Eggheads have won.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39Ah, commiserations, challengers.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41And, you know, five physicists,
0:27:41 > 0:27:44you'd at least think that science might have come up.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46It ends on a question about Henry VIII!
0:27:46 > 0:27:48Yeah. We were hoping you'd rig it for us.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51Well, Henry VIII, not exactly covered in the physics degree.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53- No.- Not quite, no.- Not yet.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56But you fought hard and well against these Eggheads.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Look at them. Unflinching.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00I'm sorry you've lost. Commiserations to you.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.
