0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19The question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show with a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 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 Team Surprise.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39Quite simply, this team want to surprise the Eggheads
0:00:39 > 0:00:41with their knowledge and their charm.
0:00:41 > 0:00:47Whether that tactic works or not remains to be seen. Let's meet them.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50Hi, I'm Matt, I'm 21 and I'm an English literature graduate.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Rowena, I'm 21 and I'm a graphics student.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Will, I'm 21 and I'm a film graduate.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Amy, I'm 20 and I'm a music student.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Sasha, I'm 23 and I'm an English literature graduate.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Welcome to you, Team Surprise. Simple name. I explained
0:01:07 > 0:01:09why you call yourself Team Surprise.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11What about your quizzing abilities and knowledge,
0:01:11 > 0:01:13have you worked together as a team?
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Of course, we're big on pub quizzes.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20As students, the pub is pretty much the main place to be.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Whenever we're there, we like to test our knowledge.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26The prize is very rarely more than a pack of nuts,
0:01:26 > 0:01:30or, at best, a pint of stale beer!
0:01:30 > 0:01:32But we like to keep on top of things, yeah.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35You're based in the pub? This is where you do the studying?
0:01:35 > 0:01:38I wouldn't put it that far, but yeah!
0:01:38 > 0:01:43OK, as students, you'll be interested in the cash on offer today.
0:01:43 > 0:01:48Every day there is £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:48 > 0:01:49If they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:49 > 0:01:52the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Team Surprise, the Eggheads have won the last 19 games.
0:01:55 > 0:02:00That means £20,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Our first head-to-head battle will be on the subject of geography.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Any of you geographers?
0:02:05 > 0:02:08It's not great.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11It's going to be a question of who's the most travelled.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14I haven't been out of Europe, so...
0:02:14 > 0:02:16- WILL:- I've barely been out the country.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19We did have a target for geography, didn't we?
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- I thought it was Rowena.- Rowena?
0:02:22 > 0:02:25I'll do it, if you want me to. OK.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27- Good girl.- All right.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31- Stay with us, Rowena, and choose an Egghead to play.- Right, um...
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Amy, her special topic is the Eggheads.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38Right, we don't have that category!
0:02:38 > 0:02:40I think we should go for CJ.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43His British geography is a bit shaky.
0:02:43 > 0:02:44- OK.- As is mine!
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- I think we'll take on CJ. - You do know about the Eggheads.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52- First I've heard of this! - LAUGHTER - Yeah.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54It's going to be Rowena and CJ
0:02:54 > 0:02:57playing our opening round and could I ask you to got to the question room
0:02:57 > 0:03:00to make sure you can't confer with your team mates.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Rowena, I know you chat to our production team
0:03:03 > 0:03:09before you come on Eggheads, and they tell me things about you all.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13They told me that you have an interesting kind of hobby.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Um, dying my hair.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18- That's the one! - I have a slight obsession with that
0:03:18 > 0:03:20and I wouldn't say I'm ever happy.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23You and CJ are just the same then!
0:03:23 > 0:03:24DERMOT LAUGHS
0:03:24 > 0:03:27OK, I'm afraid we don't have a hair-dyeing category,
0:03:27 > 0:03:29this is geography.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Would you like to go first or second?
0:03:31 > 0:03:33I'd like to go first, please.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39All right. You're going first and this is your question.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42Senegal is bordered by which ocean?
0:03:45 > 0:03:49OK, well, straight away, Indian is just flashing up.
0:03:49 > 0:03:54I'm not quite sure why, but Senegal seems quite a hot country to me.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58I'm not sure if it's Atlantic.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02It could be Pacific, but I think I'm going for Indian.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05OK, Indian Ocean. Senegal is a hot country
0:04:05 > 0:04:07but it's West Africa.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10So it's the Atlantic.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13- Oh.- Atlantic, unfortunately. OK, CJ.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17What is the basic monetary unit of Sweden?
0:04:21 > 0:04:24I think the forint is Hungary and the lev is Bulgaria,
0:04:24 > 0:04:26which would make the krona Sweden.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28Which you would have known, anyway,
0:04:28 > 0:04:30I'm sure. OK, you've got a point.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32We need to get you moving, Rowena.
0:04:32 > 0:04:37What is the approximate population of New Zealand?
0:04:40 > 0:04:43OK. New Zealand is quite a big country,
0:04:43 > 0:04:45but I don't think it's over-populated.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48I don't think it's 4 million.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52- I'm going to go with 14 million. - 14, OK.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54That might be its sheep population.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58But in terms of people, it's only four.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01- Oh.- Approximately 4 million people in New Zealand.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05Well, two questions that didn't suit Rowena, so, CJ,
0:05:05 > 0:05:09a chance to take the round after two questions.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13CJ, Port Elizabeth is a city in which South African province?
0:05:17 > 0:05:19I knew it was South Africa!
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Well, yeah, I can give you that, that's true.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Um... I really don't know which.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29I'm trying to picture where it is.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32You've got Cape Town near the bottom.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35You've got Durban on the east.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38It could be anywhere.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- A blind guess, I'll try the Western Cape.- Western Cape.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42It's not.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- Eastern.- Eastern Cape.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48It's good to see you both got the wrong side of Africa
0:05:48 > 0:05:50in different questions. OK.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Good news for you, Rowena.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55You're still in it, just, you need to get this, though.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58The city of Buffalo in New York State is situated
0:05:58 > 0:06:01on the eastern shore of which of the five Great Lakes?
0:06:04 > 0:06:08OK. Um, I haven't got a clue, to be honest,
0:06:08 > 0:06:10so I'm going to have to take a guess.
0:06:10 > 0:06:15So I'm going to go for Huron, is that how you say it?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17- Yes.- I'm going for that.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Lake Huron? No, it isn't.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22It's not Huron. CJ?
0:06:22 > 0:06:24- Ontario.- No.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26- It's Erie!- It's Erie.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30- Is it? Oh.- We'll take a point off him and keep going!
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Unfortunately, we don't do that,
0:06:33 > 0:06:35which means, Rowena, you're not in the final round.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37It's incorrect.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Would you please come back and join your teams?
0:06:40 > 0:06:45Well, unfortunately for Rowena, no questions on UK geography.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47That was a shame, wasn't it(?)
0:06:47 > 0:06:50So we didn't put that theory to the test.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52Not very good at that side of it.
0:06:52 > 0:06:56But won through in that round, which means Team Surprise are one brain down.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00Maybe you'll enjoy our next category more. This is Music.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04- Who'd like to play this?- We've got a couple of contenders for this.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06We are going for Amy.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- You are studying music. - As our music student.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12You can't really duck it, can you, Amy?
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- You know about the Eggheads. Which one do you want to play?- OK.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19- I'm going to take on Barry, I think. - Barry? OK.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21What was the analysis there?
0:07:21 > 0:07:24I don't know how much Barry knows about popular music.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Maybe...
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I listen to nothing else(!)
0:07:29 > 0:07:33It is your definition of popular, Barry, that's the problem. OK.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Let's have Amy and Barry into the question room, please.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Your friends tell us you study music.
0:07:40 > 0:07:41Do you play any instruments?
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Yes. I'm a saxophonist.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46More classical, as opposed to...
0:07:46 > 0:07:49People normally associate the saxophone with the jazz world,
0:07:49 > 0:07:54but I trained as a flautist first, so I have a classical background.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58- Yeah.- It could come in useful in this round,
0:07:58 > 0:08:02because a lot of people of your generation are strong on contemporary stuff,
0:08:02 > 0:08:06but the classical background can be a bit weaker.
0:08:06 > 0:08:11Let's hope you're not caught out by any from that direction.
0:08:11 > 0:08:12Do you want to go first or second?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14I think I'll go first, please.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Now, your first question.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Alice Cooper had a UK number-one single with Schools Out
0:08:22 > 0:08:24in which decade?
0:08:27 > 0:08:32OK, I don't think it was as late as the '90s. This isn't really my genre.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Something is screaming '80s at me,
0:08:34 > 0:08:36so I'll go for that and hope for the best.
0:08:36 > 0:08:391980s. It's not.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41- It's earlier.- Is it?
0:08:41 > 0:08:46- It's way back to our Bazzer's time. - Thank you(!)
0:08:47 > 0:08:50Were you swinging those long locks to the sound of Schools Out?
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Probably not.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57It is 1972, to be precise, so nothing there
0:08:57 > 0:09:02and, Barry, which 1982 song begins with the lines,
0:09:02 > 0:09:06"Rising up, back on the street, did my time, took my chances"?
0:09:10 > 0:09:12I've been playing it through in my head
0:09:12 > 0:09:15- and I think it's the Eye Of The Tiger.- Yeah.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Don't sing any of it at all.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21- I'll spare you that delight. - We won't get Chris involved, either.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Why not, Chris? Is it a karaoke favourite?
0:09:23 > 0:09:25# It's the eye of the tiger
0:09:25 > 0:09:27- # And the dee da da dee... # - No.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29# ..To the challenge of our rival. #
0:09:29 > 0:09:32It's not one of your favourites. Eye Of The Tiger is correct,
0:09:32 > 0:09:37which is bad news for Amy. We need you to get one here, OK?
0:09:37 > 0:09:41Amy, the jazz musician Charlie Parker was best known
0:09:41 > 0:09:43for his expertise on which instrument?
0:09:45 > 0:09:47I think it would be embarrassing if I got this wrong.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49It's the saxophone.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52I was trying to keep a straight face!
0:09:52 > 0:09:54It is.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56As Kevin, who's not with us today...
0:09:56 > 0:09:58How the questions fall.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00But that one couldn't have been more up your street.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Saxophone, Charlie Parker.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06OK, good, that's steadied your ship and got you under sail.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Your second question, Barry.
0:10:09 > 0:10:14In which century was the French composer Erik Satie born?
0:10:16 > 0:10:20Very whimsical composer, who spent most of his life living
0:10:20 > 0:10:23in a single room, which he wouldn't allow anybody to visit him in.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25He always wore white.
0:10:25 > 0:10:30But I believe he was born in the...in the 19th century.
0:10:30 > 0:10:3419th century is correct.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Right. Amy, bad luck with that first one.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40It means you've really got to get this.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43What is the birth name of the singer Ozzy Osbourne?
0:10:45 > 0:10:47I really don't know this one.
0:10:47 > 0:10:53Um, stand in the dark, I'll go for, er, Peter.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Ozzy Osbourne was born as John.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59- Oh!- Oh, no.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02It means you won't be in the final round.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05And, Bazzer, mate, you're in it.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Would you both come back and join your teams?
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Still waiting for you to spring that surprise. I know it will come,
0:11:11 > 0:11:15but Team Surprise have lost two brains from the final round.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17The Eggheads are all still there.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20We move on to round three in the head to heads.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22This is Film & Television.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26Who would like to play this? We've got Matt, Will or Sasha.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Me.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30- Will.- You did a film degree.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33I did a film degree, so I should know something about it.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- Should do, yes. OK.- Aw!
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Will, who would you like to play from the Eggheads?
0:11:38 > 0:11:43Barry and CJ have played, so Daphne, Chris or Pat?
0:11:43 > 0:11:45THEY TALK AT ONCE
0:11:45 > 0:11:50I reckon we should take Chris on. I don't know how much TV he watches.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52ALL: OK.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54You'd be surprised.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57Will and Chris into the question room, please.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Will, I've got to ask you,
0:12:00 > 0:12:03is the jumper some kind of tribute to Gyles Brandreth?
0:12:03 > 0:12:05I have no idea who that is.
0:12:05 > 0:12:06LAUGHTER
0:12:06 > 0:12:09- He's only been on Celebrity Eggheads a few times.- OK.
0:12:09 > 0:12:16- Famous jumper wearer.- Right, OK. - I believe it's a lucky jumper for you.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19I've only had it a few months, I got it from Glastonbury.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Hopefully, it'll be a lucky jumper after today.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24Let's hope it is a lucky jumper for you, Will.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27Film & Television, as you say, a film studies graduate.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30- Would you like to go first or second?- First, please.
0:12:33 > 0:12:34Right, good luck.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38What is the profession of the main character in the TV series
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Luther, starring Idris Elba?
0:12:43 > 0:12:44I've not seen it.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46But it has been recommended to me
0:12:46 > 0:12:50and I've seen the adverts where he smashes everything up.
0:12:50 > 0:12:55I think it must be detective. No doctor would go that crazy.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57So I'm going for detective.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01It's the right answer. Well worked out, Will.
0:13:02 > 0:13:07Chris, Jai McDowell was the 2011 winner of which TV show?
0:13:12 > 0:13:16All of those are recorded by you and watched and re-watched?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18No, I don't watch any reality television.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Real reality is bad enough.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Real reality.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25- Right, OK.- McDowell.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30How's about MasterChef?
0:13:30 > 0:13:32LAUGHTER
0:13:32 > 0:13:38That was the one there that you could have eliminated.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42It's not the right answer, no, it's not. Other Eggheads?
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Britain's Got Talent.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Britain's Got Talent. So...
0:13:46 > 0:13:50- That's questionable. - LAUGHTER
0:13:50 > 0:13:55So, Will, for the first time in this game, Team Surprise have kicked off
0:13:55 > 0:13:59with the correct answer to their first question
0:13:59 > 0:14:02and a lead, which you can double if you get this right.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05Who starred as Thor in the 2011 film of the same name?
0:14:10 > 0:14:14I know this one, because I did see it in the cinema recently.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17It was the first film I'd ever seen in 3D
0:14:17 > 0:14:20and I wasn't really sure about it, but yeah, it's Chris Hemsworth.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Chris Hemsworth is the right answer. Well done.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27Why not sure about 3D? You don't like the sensation?
0:14:27 > 0:14:30I don't see the point. It makes everything fuzzy.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34The glasses are a bit... It's just a hassle.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37It must be difficult for you to see 3D films with specs, Chris?
0:14:37 > 0:14:40I've never seen a 3D film in my life.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Not even that 1950s one with the old bats?
0:14:43 > 0:14:46- Oh, what's it called? I don't know. - A quiz question.
0:14:46 > 0:14:47Never bothered with it.
0:14:47 > 0:14:51All right. Well, you're 2-0 down and need to get this.
0:14:51 > 0:14:56In which year did the TV series Rawhide, starring Clint Eastwood,
0:14:56 > 0:14:58first air in the United States?
0:15:02 > 0:15:07In 1949, the American TV networks were hardly going at all,
0:15:07 > 0:15:10according to Bill Bryson, who I trust in these matters.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13It was still dominated by radio.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16I remember it being on the telly in this country in the early '60s,
0:15:16 > 0:15:20so it would have premiered in the US in '59.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23OK. '59. Doing it that way.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26It's the right answer. Well done, Chris.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28You're still in it, but, Will,
0:15:28 > 0:15:32you go through to the final round if you give me a correct answer here.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35How many Oscar nominations did Kate Winslet receive
0:15:35 > 0:15:36between 2000 and 2010?
0:15:39 > 0:15:41I can't imagine it's four.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43I think it must be three,
0:15:43 > 0:15:46because she seems to get nominated all the time,
0:15:46 > 0:15:47but not enough for four.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49OK, three, but not four.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Gets nominated all the time. She certainly does.
0:15:52 > 0:15:57But she has been nominated four times. Four times.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59OK, is this a let-off for Chris?
0:15:59 > 0:16:03He was 2-0 down and can level and take us into sudden death if he gets this.
0:16:03 > 0:16:08Chris, which actor has starred in the films JFK, Hollow Man
0:16:08 > 0:16:09and Sleepers?
0:16:13 > 0:16:19I think I'd remembered Kevin Bacon, with his peculiar nose. Um...
0:16:19 > 0:16:21William H Macy.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25William H Macy. What do you think, film studies student Will?
0:16:25 > 0:16:28I would have gone the Billy Bob Thornton.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30- Interesting, because it's Kevin Bacon.- Oh.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34It doesn't matter what you'd have gone for, Will, you're in the final.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37You and your pullie.
0:16:37 > 0:16:43Let's have you and Chris back into the studio to join your teams.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46I knew that surprise was coming, didn't I?
0:16:46 > 0:16:49Will with his Glastonbury secret weapon, the jumper.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52As it stands, the Eggheads have lost one brain from the final round.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Team Surprise have lost two.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Last head to head before the final round is History.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02We have Matt or Sasha available.
0:17:02 > 0:17:07Matt really wants to do the last round, so I will take History.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11- Sasha, you can choose from Pat or Daphne.- I think Pat.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14Let's try and knock Pat out. Why not?
0:17:14 > 0:17:18Let's have Sasha and Pat in the question room, please.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23Sasha, would you like to go first or second?
0:17:23 > 0:17:25I'd like to go first, please.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30OK, good luck, Sasha. First question.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Edward VI was a member of which Royal house?
0:17:35 > 0:17:38I know that Henry VIII had a son called Edward,
0:17:38 > 0:17:41but I can't remember which one he was.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47But just in case it is this, I am going to go with Tudor.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Yes, you got it right, you identified him.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54Henry's son Edward became Edward VI and therefore is Tudor.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56It's the right answer. Well done.
0:17:56 > 0:18:01Pat, in which decade of the 20th century was Fidel Castro born?
0:18:07 > 0:18:13I think his group overthrew Batista in '59 in Cuba.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17Of course, he was there by '63 and the Bay of Pigs and all that.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19A youngish man at the time.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24If he was born in the 1940s, he'd have been 19 years old,
0:18:24 > 0:18:28taking over a country, which seems precocious.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32'30s means he could be up to 29 years old.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36And 39 years old. So there we go. Er...
0:18:36 > 0:18:38I'm a little concerned here this could go wrong,
0:18:38 > 0:18:40but I going for 1930s.
0:18:40 > 0:18:46OK, 1930s. The maximum age as you talked us through could be 29.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50It's not the right answer, Pat, it is the '20s.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53That's great news, Sasha.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57You are 1-0 up against the world quiz champion.
0:18:57 > 0:19:01Let's hope it stays that way by the end of three questions.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03You're leading him at the moment. Your second question,
0:19:03 > 0:19:06the Battle of Gate Fulford took place in which year?
0:19:12 > 0:19:181066 was the Battle of Hastings and that is all I know about these dates.
0:19:18 > 0:19:22I'm going to go with 1415.
0:19:22 > 0:19:271415. A lot of battles around in all those years.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30Um, and the Battle of Gate Fulford, Eggheads?
0:19:30 > 0:19:33- It's 1066.- 1066.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- Oh.- One of those other skirmishes I know Stamford Bridge at that time,
0:19:37 > 0:19:40- but where was Gate Fulford? - Just outside York.- Really?
0:19:40 > 0:19:44It was a Viking invasion that was defeated.
0:19:44 > 0:19:48Nothing to do with Harold and co?
0:19:48 > 0:19:51It was Harold who fought it, but it was a Viking invasion.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54There were two invasions of England in 1066.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Interesting.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59The Battle of Gate Fulford was in 1066,
0:19:59 > 0:20:02which means it gives a chance to Pat to draw level.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05How did the great Carthaginian military leader Hannibal die
0:20:05 > 0:20:08in approximately 183 BC?
0:20:13 > 0:20:17Well, he has numerous big victories against the Romans,
0:20:17 > 0:20:19but I think, um,
0:20:19 > 0:20:21they finally got the better of him.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24I think his luck ran out and they had him surrounded
0:20:24 > 0:20:26and I think he poisoned himself.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30OK, so suicide through poison. It is the right answer.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33You are back level.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35OK, Sasha, still well in it.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37And your third question.
0:20:37 > 0:20:43Who was king of Denmark and Norway for 60 years between 1588 and 1648?
0:20:47 > 0:20:51I am going to have a wild guess at...
0:20:52 > 0:20:54..Eric II.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Eric II. I see, kind of Scandinavian -
0:20:57 > 0:21:00talk about the Vikings in the last one -
0:21:00 > 0:21:01type of name.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04- Eric II it's not.- Oh, dear.
0:21:04 > 0:21:05Pat?
0:21:05 > 0:21:09My reflex when I hear Denmark is to say Christian,
0:21:09 > 0:21:11but it's a guess.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13It is, yes, it's Christian IV.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15OK, Pat, your question to take the round.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18The notorious outlaw Ben Hall,
0:21:18 > 0:21:20born in 1837, lived in which country?
0:21:23 > 0:21:25You don't hear much about Canadian outlaws.
0:21:25 > 0:21:31I'm not sure whether they are a particularly well-behaved people,
0:21:31 > 0:21:33or not good cinema.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36Australia certainly has a tradition of people
0:21:36 > 0:21:38going a bit beyond the law,
0:21:38 > 0:21:41and the USA has an entire mythology.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45I think I'll go with Australia, but it's close to a guess, really.
0:21:45 > 0:21:46Australia.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49- What do you think, other Eggheads? - He's right.- Really?
0:21:49 > 0:21:54It is the right answer. Australia. Bad luck, Sasha,
0:21:54 > 0:21:57you led the world quiz champion for a while
0:21:57 > 0:22:01but, in the end he has triumphed, which has cost you a place in the final round.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Will you both come back and join your teams?
0:22:05 > 0:22:07OK, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:22:07 > 0:22:08It's time for the final round,
0:22:08 > 0:22:10which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13Those of you who lost your head to heads will not be
0:22:13 > 0:22:16allowed to take part in this round, so Rowena, Amy and Sasha
0:22:16 > 0:22:20from Team Surprise, and Chris from the Eggheads,
0:22:20 > 0:22:23would you leave the studio, please?
0:22:23 > 0:22:28So, Matt and Will, you are playing to win Team Surprise £20,000.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32CJ, Daphne, Barry and Pat, you are playing for something
0:22:32 > 0:22:35which money cannot buy - the Eggheads' reputation.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:38 > 0:22:43This time, the questions are all general knowledge. You are allowed to confer in this final round.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45Matt and Will, the question is,
0:22:45 > 0:22:48are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:22:48 > 0:22:51Matt and Will, first or second?
0:22:51 > 0:22:53I think we'll go first.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59OK, the first question is general knowledge. Here you go.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02Where were Prince William and Kate Middleton married?
0:23:10 > 0:23:14- Well, um...- We watched it together, didn't we?- Yeah.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17A strange, romantic afternoon.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Do you remember out of those where it took place?
0:23:20 > 0:23:23I actually don't, which is terrible, isn't it?
0:23:23 > 0:23:27- What are you straining towards? - Westminster Abbey.
0:23:27 > 0:23:28Do you think St Paul's?
0:23:28 > 0:23:32- Cathedral does sound grander. - I think it is St Paul's Cathedral.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35I don't know.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37- You don't know? - Yeah, St Paul's Cathedral.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40- We're going for St Paul's Cathedral.- St Paul's Cathedral.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42What were you doing while you were watching?
0:23:42 > 0:23:45The broadcast went on long time, I was working on it.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48- What were you doing? Were you paying full attention?- I was.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51- Doing what?- Maybe clearly not. - I was eating cereal, I think.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55- Um, you missed the fact it was in Westminster Abbey.- Argh!
0:23:55 > 0:23:59- See, I said... Ah.- Well, Eggheads, the first question for you.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02The American twins Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss
0:24:02 > 0:24:06have been involved in legal campaigns over the ownership of which website?
0:24:08 > 0:24:11The American twins Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss have been
0:24:11 > 0:24:16involved in lengthy legal campaigns over the ownership which website?
0:24:16 > 0:24:19- That's Facebook.- Facebook?
0:24:19 > 0:24:22Is the right answer, Eggheads, which I'm sure you would have got.
0:24:24 > 0:24:29OK, right, you need to get this. I suspect you have a chance.
0:24:29 > 0:24:34In which part of the UK is Edge Hill University primarily based?
0:24:37 > 0:24:42In which part of the UK is Edge Hill University primarily based?
0:24:42 > 0:24:46- Do you have any friends who go to either of those three?- No.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49I'm trying to think.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Norfolk. Is that on the edge?
0:24:51 > 0:24:55"Let's go to Edge Hill in Sussex. Edge Hill in Lancashire. Let's go Edge Hill in Norfolk."
0:24:55 > 0:24:58What do you know about Sussex? No. No.
0:24:58 > 0:25:02No. I definitely know somebody who goes to Sussex.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05- I think that is just Sussex University.- It is, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07- Lancashire. Go for Lancashire.- Yeah?
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Because Norfolk... There's a Norfolk University?
0:25:10 > 0:25:14- We are going to go Lancashire. - OK, go Lancashire.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17For no other reason than just...
0:25:17 > 0:25:20- It's the right answer, anyway.- Yes!
0:25:20 > 0:25:22I can't explain that reasoning, neither can they.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24Formula 1 driver Nico Rosberg represented
0:25:24 > 0:25:27which team during the 2011 season?
0:25:30 > 0:25:34The Formula 1 driver Nico Rosberg represented which team
0:25:34 > 0:25:35during the 2011 season?
0:25:35 > 0:25:38- CJ:- He was Michael Schumacher's partner at Mercedes.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41That's Mercedes.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Yeah, CJ very sure on his Formula 1. It's the right answer.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47OK, it means you've got to get this, Matt and Will.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50According to a saying usually attributed to Somerset Maugham,
0:25:50 > 0:25:54to eat well in England you should have what three times a day?
0:25:57 > 0:26:00- Let's think this logically. Do you know, by the way?- No.
0:26:00 > 0:26:06Right, it's obviously... We can establish it's an old saying.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10Do you really think it would be "eat carrots three times a day"?
0:26:10 > 0:26:14It could be, because carrots, you can have a carrot as a snack.
0:26:16 > 0:26:22- No. Let's go for breakfast. I like the look of that answer.- OK.
0:26:22 > 0:26:26Will likes breakfast. He's been known to have breakfast three times a day,
0:26:26 > 0:26:28- we're going for breakfast. - OK, breakfast.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Breakfast three times a day, to eat well in England,
0:26:31 > 0:26:34is he right answer.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36You're doing well now.
0:26:36 > 0:26:37After getting the first one wrong,
0:26:37 > 0:26:40which, actually, breakfast cost you that one, didn't it?
0:26:40 > 0:26:43You've got two out of three
0:26:43 > 0:26:46and you have to hope the Eggheads don't get this.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Eggheads, the city of Paterson, New Jersey,
0:26:49 > 0:26:52is the subject of a very long work by which poet?
0:26:58 > 0:27:01I've heard of it, I've heard of the poem.
0:27:02 > 0:27:07William Carlos Williams was a very famous American poet.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09- Wasn't he?- They're all American.
0:27:09 > 0:27:14What I meant was, who lived around New York and New Jersey.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16My instinct is it is not Longfellow.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Yeah.
0:27:18 > 0:27:23With Whitman, you always hear of leaves of grass, things like that.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25I haven't heard of Paterson, New Jersey.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29- BARRY:- I've heard of a lot of Whitman works, but...
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Shall we go for Williams?
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Something of a guess.
0:27:34 > 0:27:38Well, none of us have ever heard of this poem,
0:27:38 > 0:27:43but we are going to go for William Carlos Williams.
0:27:43 > 0:27:44William Carlos Williams.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47A poem about Paterson, New Jersey, very long.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50Is the right answer, you've won.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59Well, I normally say to losing contestants after
0:27:59 > 0:28:02a game like that, "I hope you've enjoyed yourself." I know you have.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04You've had a ball.
0:28:04 > 0:28:09Thank you very much for entertaining us, especially Will and his sweater.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12It means the Eggheads have done what comes naturally
0:28:12 > 0:28:17and the winning streak continues. I'm afraid you won't be going home with a £20,000.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19That means the money rolls over to the next show.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:22 > 0:28:25Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:25 > 0:28:29have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. £21,000 says they don't.
0:28:29 > 0:28:30Until then, goodbye.
