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 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where 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 > 0:00:35Taking on the awesome might of our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:35 > 0:00:37are Snooker Loopy.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39This team are all members of the English Association of Snooker
0:00:39 > 0:00:41and Billiards. Let's meet them.
0:00:41 > 0:00:45I'm Oli, I'm 27 and I'm a security officer.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48Hello, I'm Paul, I'm 50 and I'm a solicitor.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm John, I'm 32 and I'm a company director.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm Rob, I'm 59 and I'm a customer assistant.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Steve, I'm 46 and I'm a trainer for a high street bank.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02- Oli and team, welcome. Good to see you.- Thank you.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04- It's snooker and billiards? - Yes, that's right.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07How did you get the team together because you didn't know each other before?
0:01:07 > 0:01:10No, we put out an application on the association's website
0:01:10 > 0:01:13for anyone who's interested in taking part in the team.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16This is what we're left with at the end of the process.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Did you have a pile of people looking for a place?
0:01:19 > 0:01:22Yes, probably about 15, then we whittled it down, so...
0:01:22 > 0:01:26What is the difference between snooker and billiards, in a word?
0:01:26 > 0:01:30- I'll pass that on to John.- You are the billiards man?- Yes, I am.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Both are played on the same table.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35But there's only three balls at billiards -
0:01:35 > 0:01:37a red, a white and a yellow.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39So it's a lot more difficult than snooker
0:01:39 > 0:01:41because you've got less options.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Do you not sometimes, when you're playing it, want more balls on the table?
0:01:45 > 0:01:49- Sometimes.- So you just think I'm missing the blue, green and pink.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52- What about the pink, you don't have the pink in billiards?- No pink.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56- Do you not miss the pink?- Well, we have to make do with what we've got.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Any snooker or billiards players here, Eggs?
0:01:58 > 0:02:02They don't really get out much. You know, they don't.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05They are inside the whole time looking at little lists.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Every day there's £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:02:11 > 0:02:13the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16So, Snooker Loopy, the Eggheads have won the last five games.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20Which means £6,000 says you can't beat them today.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22The first subject is Film and Television.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24You have to tell me who wants to play this.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Steve, have a go with this one?
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- I'm easy. Do you want me to go? - I don't mind.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32We think Steve will have a go at this one.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35All right, Steve, against which Egghead?
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Go against Chris, do you think? Can I go against Chris, please?
0:02:38 > 0:02:39You certainly can.
0:02:39 > 0:02:44Steve, from Snooker Loopy versus Chris on Film and TV.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46To ensure there is no conferring,
0:02:46 > 0:02:48please take your positions in our question room.
0:02:49 > 0:02:54I'm going to ask each of you three multiple-choice questions on Film and Television in turn.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Whoever answers the most questions correctly is the winner
0:02:56 > 0:02:58and goes through to the final.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Steve, you can choose the first or second set of questions.
0:03:01 > 0:03:02I'll go first, please, Jeremy.
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Here we go, good luck.
0:03:06 > 0:03:11Prisoner And Escort was the name of the pilot episode for which classic sitcom?
0:03:17 > 0:03:20I don't think it was Only Fools And Horses.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24Man About The House I think was a little bit earlier.
0:03:24 > 0:03:29And I've got a nickname of Norman as well. Because of my surname.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Because I think it's Porridge.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35- Well done, because your surname is Fletcher.- It is indeed.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38- So you're not going to get that one wrong.- No, hopefully.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Porridge is the right answer, Steve.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Chris, which broadcaster, known as the presenter of Coast
0:03:45 > 0:03:49and Scrapheap Challenge, is famous for his enormous moustache?
0:03:54 > 0:03:58That is the slightly eccentric and a bit like myself Dick Strawbridge.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Dick Strawbridge is the right answer.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Ever thought of growing a handlebar moustache, Chris?
0:04:03 > 0:04:06I did once think of growing a beard when I was about 22,
0:04:06 > 0:04:10but my mother said, "Ach, you'd look like the black laird of Dundee."
0:04:10 > 0:04:11So I never bothered since.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14It might be good having the handlebar with the ends waxed,
0:04:14 > 0:04:18- turned upwards.- So I can twirl it at certain times, yes.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21- When you are struggling for an answer.- Yes.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23OK, your question, Steve.
0:04:23 > 0:04:28Which British actress co-starred with Michael Fassbender in the 2011 film Shame?
0:04:33 > 0:04:37- This is a new one on me. What year was the film again?- 2011.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40I've not heard of Rebecca Hall
0:04:40 > 0:04:44and the only one I think I've heard of is Rosamund Pike.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46So I'll go with her.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49It's not Rosamund Pike. Anyone?
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- Carey Mulligan.- Carey Mulligan is the correct answer, Steve. Sorry.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Let's see if Chris can pull ahead.
0:04:54 > 0:05:00In 2011, Ralph Fiennes directed and starred in a film version of which Shakespeare play?
0:05:05 > 0:05:08I don't think anybody has filmed Titus Andronicus,
0:05:08 > 0:05:10which would just be a bloodbath.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13I've not heard of Cymbeline ever being filmed.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16But I think there was a film made recently of Coriolanus,
0:05:16 > 0:05:19so that's what I'll go with.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Corialanus is the correct answer, Chris. Well done.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25OK, he's ahead, so you need this one, Steve.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27I keep wanting to call you Norman.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31The film Distant Voices, Still Lives, by Terence Davies,
0:05:31 > 0:05:37is an evocation of working-class life of the 1940s and 1950s in which city?
0:05:41 > 0:05:44I work in Birmingham. It doesn't seem to ring any bells.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47And...I would think...
0:05:47 > 0:05:50I was a Liverpool supporter as a child,
0:05:50 > 0:05:53but now I've seen the light and I'm a Shrewsbury Town fan.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55So I'm going to go for Liverpool.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58You've got it right, well done.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02OK, Chris, for the round.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06Kurt Hummel, Tina CohenChang and Artie Abrams
0:06:06 > 0:06:09are characters from which US TV series?
0:06:16 > 0:06:19It sounds like something of an ethnic mix.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Nurse Jackie is set in a hospital.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25Six Feet Under is set in an undertaker's, obviously.
0:06:25 > 0:06:30I think they are three of the kids from Glee, so I'll go with Glee.
0:06:30 > 0:06:34Glee is the right answer, Chris. So, just a quiet tut from his team.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37You've lost your first player, I'm afraid.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41Steve, you've been knocked out and won't be in the final round. Chris will.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Please return to your teams.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47So, on Shakespeare plays that have become movies,
0:06:47 > 0:06:51Chris said no-one has done Titus Andronicus. Barry, you beg to differ.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Yes, Anthony Hopkins did a fantastic version of Titus Andronicus.
0:06:54 > 0:06:59Jessica Lange played a very fine Tamora, Queen of the Goth.
0:06:59 > 0:07:03- Fearsome.- As it stands, the challengers have lost one brain from the final round.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06The Eggheads have lost no brains so far.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08And a bit of extra Shakespeare knowledge for us.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10The next subject is Geography.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Who would like this?
0:07:13 > 0:07:16THEY CONFER
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Rob on Geography. OK, Rob, against which Egghead?
0:07:19 > 0:07:23Um...Judith, please.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- Fine, you won't complain about that, will you, Judith?- Not at all.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28I haven't done Geography for ages.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30She had a terrible run of constant Sport
0:07:30 > 0:07:34and ever since you got upset about it, it stopped and it's now been
0:07:34 > 0:07:37all your favourite subjects, including History last time.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39- Yes.- That went well.- That went well!
0:07:39 > 0:07:44So, it's Rob from Snooker Loopy versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46And to ensure there's no conferring,
0:07:46 > 0:07:50please take your positions in the question room.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Rob, your involvement in snooker is what?
0:07:53 > 0:07:56Predominantly, these days, I'm a snooker referee.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00I took up refereeing some years back and that's my passion,
0:08:00 > 0:08:02but I do still play.
0:08:02 > 0:08:06It's not like refereeing football where you have a lot of very,
0:08:06 > 0:08:11very difficult judgment calls. The ball is in the pocket or it's not.
0:08:11 > 0:08:16There are still some rather technical rules to the game that we have to adhere to.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20I think it's a lot more difficult than people imagine.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23What's the most unusual foul you've ever given?
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Prior to actually taking up refereeing,
0:08:26 > 0:08:29I was actually playing a game on one table
0:08:29 > 0:08:33and turned around to the scoreboard
0:08:33 > 0:08:37and the cue ball from the next table came over onto mine.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41That's probably one of the most unusual ones I've seen.
0:08:41 > 0:08:46- I hope you didn't lose points for that.- No.- Here we go with Geography.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48Good subject for you, Judith, you haven't done it for ages.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- No, not for ages. - Let's see who does well here.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Whoever answers the most gets into the final.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Rob, choose the first or second set of questions.
0:08:56 > 0:08:57I'd like to go first, please.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04Rob, which word is used to refer to the height of an area
0:09:04 > 0:09:06measured from sea level?
0:09:10 > 0:09:14Well, a little bit of aptitude I hope we've got for this programme.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17And possibly a bit of attitude.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20But I think the answer we are looking for is altitude.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Altitude is the right answer, Rob. Well done.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25OK, Judith.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29Autriche is the French name for which country?
0:09:33 > 0:09:35- A-U-T-R-I-C-H-E?- Yes.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39- Is it Austria?- You were never going to get that wrong, were you?
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- I hope not. - Austria is the right answer.
0:09:44 > 0:09:49Rob, Prudhoe Bay in Alaska is famous for what feature,
0:09:49 > 0:09:51the largest of its kind in the USA?
0:09:56 > 0:09:59I'm not familiar with that one, Jeremy.
0:10:01 > 0:10:06I don't think it's an oil field in Alaska.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12I suppose it would be a perfect place for an observatory.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19I'm going to plump for the hydro-electric station.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23Hydro-electric station is wrong, Rob. It is actually oil field.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Yes, it's a big state for oil,
0:10:25 > 0:10:29but it could easily have been either of the other two. Sorry about that.
0:10:29 > 0:10:34Judith, the harbour of which city was formerly called Port Nicholson?
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Oh.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Well, I think Sydney has always been called Sydney Harbour.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47I mean, it's just that sort of...
0:10:47 > 0:10:50I can't think of anything else it could be called.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53Wellington is New Zealand. Nicholson.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55And Durban is South Africa.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59Nicholson, I think may be Wellington.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04Wellington is the right answer, so you are ahead now.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Back to you, Rob. Got to get this right.
0:11:06 > 0:11:12The Galapagos Islands are approximately what distance from mainland Ecuador?
0:11:18 > 0:11:22600 miles sounds a long way.
0:11:24 > 0:11:2920 miles seems rather close, I'm going to plump for 240 miles.
0:11:29 > 0:11:34- I see the logic there, but it is 600.- 600?- So it is quite a way.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37- Has anyone been to the Galapagos? - Just interested in the Pacific.
0:11:37 > 0:11:41Huge. Even though if you see on a small-scale map it may look
0:11:41 > 0:11:45as though those islands are not that far off the coast,
0:11:45 > 0:11:49the Pacific is huge, so it's quite a distance.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53I'm sorry none of that helps you, Rob. 600 miles is the answer.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57You've been knocked out by Judith over those questions.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00So, Judith will be in the final and you won't be.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03If you both come back to us, we will play the next round.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07As it stands, the challengers have lost two brains
0:12:07 > 0:12:10and the Eggheads have lost no brains from the final round.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Our next subject is Politics. Politics, guys.
0:12:13 > 0:12:18This was one of the topics that nobody really wanted.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21I think it's going to be me that takes one for the team here.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- So you are snookered? - I think so.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28OK, against which Egghead? Who do you want to take out?
0:12:28 > 0:12:32- I was going to say what about Kevin? - Barry?- Barry, yes.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Yes, I'll take on Barry, please.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38Barry on Politics. OK, John from Snooker Loopy versus Barry.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Please go to the question room now.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43- Good luck here, John.- Thank you.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47I was going to say Barry loves Politics. It's one of your good subjects, not an obsession.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51- It's not an obsession, but I enjoy it.- Three questions on Politics.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55- John, choose the first or second set.- I'd like to go first, please.
0:12:58 > 0:13:03Here we go. Which castle is the official UK government residence in Northern Ireland?
0:13:09 > 0:13:12I've played lots of competitions in Northern Ireland.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Unfortunately we don't get chance to do much sightseeing.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Dunluce doesn't ring any bells at all.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21Although for some reason, Hillsborough does.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Yes, I think I'll go with Hillsborough.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29That faint bell served you well. Hillsborough is the right answer.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Well done.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Straight in the pocket.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38Barry, which phrase was coined by Paul Weyrich to describe people
0:13:38 > 0:13:41with strong Christian conservative principles?
0:13:46 > 0:13:49I wouldn't have known the name, but of those three, moral majority
0:13:49 > 0:13:53shines out for me, so I think the answer is moral majority.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56It's the right answer.
0:13:56 > 0:14:01John. Which political figure said, "Anger is the enemy of non-violence
0:14:01 > 0:14:04"and pride is a monster that swallows it up"?
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Well...I've got no idea.
0:14:11 > 0:14:17Um...right, let's just have a wild guess at Franco.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22It's not, it's Gandhi. It's Gandhi, the big non-violent figure.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25OK, Barry, over to you.
0:14:25 > 0:14:30In the 1970s, Sheik Yamani was the oil minister of which country?
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Didn't he have a wonderful name, Sheikh Yamani?
0:14:37 > 0:14:39It just sounds like "Shake your money",
0:14:39 > 0:14:41but he was the oil minister of Saudi Arabia.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45Saudi Arabia is the right answer. It is the best name ever.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48- It truly is.- You couldn't make that up, could you?
0:14:48 > 0:14:51If you said, "Shake your money", you wouldn't be mispronouncing it.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53OK, John, you need to get this one right.
0:14:53 > 0:14:58What is the name of the British-Dutch union
0:14:58 > 0:15:02launched in 2009 to represent maritime professionals?
0:15:09 > 0:15:14Um...again, never heard of any of them, I'm afraid.
0:15:14 > 0:15:19Um...let's have a go at Nautilus International.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24You've got it right, it is Nautilus International.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27So you are equal on two points each,
0:15:27 > 0:15:29but Barry can take it with this question.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33What was the name of the 1947 press release by film industry heads
0:15:33 > 0:15:37condemning workers accused of communist activities?
0:15:43 > 0:15:44I've never heard of this one.
0:15:44 > 0:15:49They are all names that are synonymous with famous hotels.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51So I guess that's why the three names are in there,
0:15:51 > 0:15:53but I really don't know it.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56So this is an out-and-out guess, I'm afraid.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58And I shall go for...
0:15:58 > 0:16:01Which sounds more common?
0:16:01 > 0:16:04I don't think it will be Ritz. Is it Waldorf or Hilton?
0:16:05 > 0:16:07- We'll try Waldorf.- Anyone know here?
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Is he right, Eggheads?
0:16:10 > 0:16:13I don't remember it. I'd have gone for Waldorf, but I don't know it.
0:16:13 > 0:16:17It is the Waldorf. Well done, you got it right.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20A slight fluke on the last one, but well played.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23John, that means you have been knocked into the pocket, I'm afraid.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25You won't be in the final round.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28If you come back to us now, we'll play on.
0:16:29 > 0:16:34- So what happens now, Oli?- We panic. - Oh, so restrained panic?
0:16:34 > 0:16:36In your sport, comebacks are really possible.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39- I see them the whole time. - You just need some pots.- Yes.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43As it stands, the challengers have lost three brains. It's looking painful.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45The Eggheads have not lost a brain yet.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47The last subject is Music.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Who would like this?
0:16:49 > 0:16:51I think I will take this one.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53I think I will take one for the team.
0:16:53 > 0:16:54Oli, against who?
0:16:54 > 0:16:58- Should I try my luck against Kevin? - Why not?
0:16:58 > 0:17:00I'll try my luck against Kevin.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03This is the high-stakes manoeuvre, isn't it?
0:17:03 > 0:17:05If you can knock him out before the final.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07So it's Oli from Snooker Loopy versus
0:17:07 > 0:17:09Kevin from the Eggheads on Music.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Please go to the question room now.
0:17:11 > 0:17:15I'm going to ask each of you three questions on Music in turn.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18Oli, first or second set of questions on Music for you?
0:17:18 > 0:17:20First set, please, Jeremy.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25Here we go, Oli, good luck. Try and break the run and get in the final.
0:17:25 > 0:17:29The Liberty Bell and the Stars And Stripes Forever
0:17:29 > 0:17:32are examples of what type of composition?
0:17:36 > 0:17:39Liberty Bell and Stars And Stripes Forever.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42Not surprisingly, I haven't heard of it.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46Out of the three though, waltz seems like
0:17:46 > 0:17:49the more old-fashioned of the three, so I'll go for that.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53It's not waltz, it's march.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56Kevin, your question.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59In a 1960s US hit, written by the actor Trevor Peacock,
0:17:59 > 0:18:02who was told she had a lovely daughter?
0:18:06 > 0:18:10Sorry, I'm just thinking about Mrs Brown, she had boys.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15This is Mrs Jones. You have a lovely daughter.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Mrs Jones, you have a lovely daughter.
0:18:17 > 0:18:22- That's so funny. You got it wrong. - Really?- Yes. Mrs Brown.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25- Oh, really?- Mrs Brown... - Oh, sorry, yes, yes, OK.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29Help us here. Anyone help me with this song?
0:18:29 > 0:18:31# Mrs Brown, you've got a lovely daughter. #
0:18:31 > 0:18:34- Yes, that's the one. - As soon as I saw Mrs Brown,
0:18:34 > 0:18:36I thought about Mrs Brown's Boys!
0:18:36 > 0:18:38And there's the famous song, Me And Mrs Jones as well.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40I know, yeah. Absolutely.
0:18:40 > 0:18:45Listen, Oli, he's potted the red by accident, so you've got an in.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49Which musical is based on a play written by Maureen Dallas Watkins
0:18:49 > 0:18:53who was assigned to report on a murder case in the 1920s?
0:18:59 > 0:19:03OK, again, absolutely no idea.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07A Chorus Line, I've never heard of that, to be honest.
0:19:07 > 0:19:12I've never heard of Carmen Jones, but that could be the victim, I suppose.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16I was going to go for Chicago, but I'll go for Carmen Jones.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18- Let's see if your team-mates know. - Chicago.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Chicago it is. Chicago it is.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25So, have we got any right answers at all yet?
0:19:25 > 0:19:27So, on with you, Kevin.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30Which pop duo wrote the music for The Most Incredible Thing,
0:19:30 > 0:19:35a ballet based on a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale?
0:19:40 > 0:19:44I believe I'm moving into a kind of semi-classical idiom
0:19:44 > 0:19:46that that was the Pet Shop Boys.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Yes, I wouldn't have known that. Pet Shop Boys is the right answer.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52Well done, you got an answer right.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54That puts a bit of pressure on Oli.
0:19:54 > 0:19:59Try just to get this one, I know you will.
0:19:59 > 0:20:05Under what name did Amelia Warner release her album of '80s covers, Renditions?
0:20:14 > 0:20:18I will have to go for Mixed-up Millie, I think.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Slow-Moving Millie is the answer.
0:20:21 > 0:20:25Oli, sorry, I thought for a second you were going to knock him
0:20:25 > 0:20:29off his perch. Kevin, you've won the round and you will be in the final.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33Come back to us, both of you, and we'll play that final round.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36So, this is what we've been playing towards,
0:20:36 > 0:20:39it's time for the final round which as always is General Knowledge.
0:20:39 > 0:20:43But those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed
0:20:43 > 0:20:44to take part in this round.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47The Eggheads have taken some lumps out of Snooker Loopy.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50It's Oli and John and Rob and Steve,
0:20:50 > 0:20:52would you please leave the studio?
0:20:52 > 0:20:55- Paul, good luck.- Thank you.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58- One ball, take them all out. - Or an implosion over there.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01I was looking for a snooker/billiards analogy.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Somehow you dropped them all into the same pocket.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07Yeah, a major in-off, something.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10- You're a solicitor, most of the time.- I am.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14But you joined the Snooker and Billiards Association as a player-member.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18- Yes.- Meaning that you're semi-pro or just, you love it?
0:21:18 > 0:21:21No, I'm far from being semi-pro. I'm a rank amateur.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25But, love it, played the game for 30 years and love playing it.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27- And that's snooker, is it?- Yes.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29I'm wondering if you might be a quizzer.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31I wonder if these guys have, very cleverly,
0:21:31 > 0:21:33hidden you until this moment.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36It would be nice to think there was a very clever strategy.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39They're nodding, by the way. So, if you're going to deny it, it's no use.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42You're playing to win Snooker Loopy £6,000.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Chris, Barry, Pat, Judith and Kevin, you're playing for something
0:21:45 > 0:21:47that money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52This time, the questions are all General Knowledge
0:21:52 > 0:21:55and you are allowed to confer. Paul, the question is,
0:21:55 > 0:21:58is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?
0:21:58 > 0:22:02- And would you like to go first or second?- First, please.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Here we go. Good luck.
0:22:07 > 0:22:11What title is given to the senior female member of the Royal household
0:22:11 > 0:22:14traditionally responsible for the Queen's clothes?
0:22:23 > 0:22:27I'm not an arch-royalist, so struggling a little bit with this,
0:22:27 > 0:22:32but my inkling, my educated guess is Mistress of the Robes.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34And your inkling is quite right.
0:22:34 > 0:22:38Mistress of the Robes it is. Well done. Eggheads, over to you.
0:22:38 > 0:22:39Epidemiology is a science
0:22:39 > 0:22:42which investigates the distribution and causes of what?
0:22:49 > 0:22:51That's diseases.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55Diseases is the right answer. Epidemiology. OK.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Paul, it might get harder. Here we go.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59In the radio series, The Archers,
0:22:59 > 0:23:02what surname is shared by Ed, William, Clarrie and Joe?
0:23:06 > 0:23:10I haven't listened to The Archers for quite a few years,
0:23:10 > 0:23:14but I remember Eddie Grundy, so I'm going to say Grundy.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18You've got it right. Well done. It is Grundy.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22OK, your question, Eggheads.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24Aunt Dahlia and Aunt Agatha
0:23:24 > 0:23:27are relations of which fictional character?
0:23:31 > 0:23:32ALL: Bertie Wooster.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37Aunts of Bertie Wooster. He has a lot of trouble with his aunts.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39They are indeed aunts of Bertie Wooster.
0:23:39 > 0:23:40Well done.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43So, back to you, Paul. Do try and get this one right.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46I know you will, because three in a row starts to get
0:23:46 > 0:23:48a little bit of pressure on them.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53What type of creature is the douroucouli of South America?
0:23:58 > 0:24:03Let me spell it to you for a second. D-O-U-R-O-U-C-O-U-L-I.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04Douroucouli.
0:24:06 > 0:24:11I've not heard of this. So it's going to be pretty much a guess.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15For some reason, I don't think it's a monkey
0:24:16 > 0:24:19Er, obscure names are often fish.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21I'm going to go for fish.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Fish is your answer. Eggheads, do you know?
0:24:24 > 0:24:27I think it's a monkey. I think it's nicknamed the owl monkey
0:24:27 > 0:24:30because of its striking resemblance to an owl.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34I don't know about that, but it's a monkey. Monkey's the answer.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39OK, so a douroucouli has put you with
0:24:39 > 0:24:42the black just hanging over the pocket.
0:24:42 > 0:24:46If you get this one right, Eggheads, you remain champions.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47Which actor was married in the 1980s
0:24:47 > 0:24:50to the make-up actress, Lori Allison?
0:24:58 > 0:25:00In the 1980s.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Johnny Depp was too young. Do you think?
0:25:02 > 0:25:07He was born in 1963, so it depends when in the '80s, doesn't it?
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Vanessa Paradis...
0:25:10 > 0:25:14THEY CONFER INAUDIBLY
0:25:14 > 0:25:18I've only come across Vanessa Paradis, ever, for Johnny Depp.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Demi Moore, that was, hmmm...
0:25:21 > 0:25:24And the other one he was dating was, was it Mimi Rogers?
0:25:26 > 0:25:30Kelly Preston?
0:25:30 > 0:25:35THEY CONFER INAUDIBLY
0:25:35 > 0:25:39How old is Bruce Willis?
0:25:39 > 0:25:40He's 61, 62?
0:25:41 > 0:25:43So, ages...
0:25:45 > 0:25:46I think that it might be...
0:25:49 > 0:25:55Well, I was going to say, maybe it was a youthful mistake. You know?
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Because, none of us have heard of her.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00It could have been a youthful mistake,
0:26:00 > 0:26:03and they were married for a year and then she vanished.
0:26:04 > 0:26:09Do you think that's...? How old is John Travolta?
0:26:09 > 0:26:11He's the oldest there, by far, isn't he?
0:26:11 > 0:26:14Maybe if he was married to one of the younger ones,
0:26:14 > 0:26:15we might have heard it.
0:26:15 > 0:26:19Do you think the youthful folly of Johnny Depp might be it?
0:26:19 > 0:26:23I've got nothing to go on, either. Anybody?
0:26:23 > 0:26:26I've got nothing to add to this at all, I'm afraid.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31- Shall we take a chance, then, on Johnny Depp?- Yeah.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33I really don't know.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35No, I don't either.
0:26:35 > 0:26:40Before he got involved with...actresses and...
0:26:40 > 0:26:42I've no idea. That's just a theory.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44That sounds reasonable to me.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47It could be any of them.
0:26:47 > 0:26:50- We're going for Johnny Depp?- OK.
0:26:50 > 0:26:51We don't know this at all,
0:26:51 > 0:26:54but we've resolved to have a punt on Johnny Depp.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58Johnny Depp is your answer. I listened very carefully there.
0:26:58 > 0:27:02Judith's... Is it fair to call it a soliloquy?
0:27:02 > 0:27:04About how you decided he must have married someone,
0:27:04 > 0:27:06it was youthful indiscretion
0:27:06 > 0:27:07and it won't have lasted very long
0:27:07 > 0:27:09and that's why we hadn't heard of it
0:27:09 > 0:27:12and constructing a whole story for us there.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15All of which was completely right, actually.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Because it was a couple of years in the early '80s
0:27:17 > 0:27:20that they were married for. It was Lori Allison and Johnny Depp.
0:27:20 > 0:27:23Well done, Eggheads, Well done, Judith, particularly.
0:27:23 > 0:27:24You have won the contest.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33I thought they were going astray, I really did,
0:27:33 > 0:27:36because I thought that if they haven't heard of her,
0:27:36 > 0:27:39they won't think it's Depp, because he's the most famous one.
0:27:39 > 0:27:40I had a moment of hope.
0:27:40 > 0:27:45Well, there you are. You took them all on. Not many do.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Well, fair play to them. They are the best!
0:27:48 > 0:27:50They are definitely the best, yeah.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53And even to be in the situation and hold your end up is something,
0:27:53 > 0:27:56so, well done. Commiserations to the challengers.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58The Eggheads did what comes naturally to them
0:27:58 > 0:28:00and their winning streak continues.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03It does mean that you won't be going home with the £6,000
0:28:03 > 0:28:05so the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08Eggheads, well done, particularly at the end. Who will beat you?
0:28:08 > 0:28:11Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:11 > 0:28:13have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16£7,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
