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 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:31 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.

0:00:32 > 0:00:36Taking on the might of our quiz Goliaths today are Chemical Waste.

0:00:36 > 0:00:40Four of this team met while studying chemistry at Leicester University

0:00:40 > 0:00:45and, to complete the team, Georgie has recruited her boyfriend, Robin.

0:00:45 > 0:00:46So let's meet them.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49Hi, I'm Georgie, I'm 22 and I'm a chemistry student.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52Hi, I'm Robin, I'm 23 and I'm a junior software engineer.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56Hi, I'm Phil, I'm 23 and I'm a chemistry student.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Jacob, I'm 22 and I'm a trainee teacher.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Hi, I'm Becci, I'm 21 and I'm a carer.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03So, Georgie and team, welcome.

0:01:03 > 0:01:07Were you all studying the same thing at Leicester?

0:01:07 > 0:01:09No, we had slightly different chemistry degrees.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12I had pharmaceutical chemistry.

0:01:12 > 0:01:13I had forensic chemistry.

0:01:13 > 0:01:17- Forensic, pharmaceutical... - And we are just straight.

0:01:17 > 0:01:19OK, but they were still chemistry.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21All chemistry, yeah, just other bits, as well.

0:01:21 > 0:01:25Yeah, sure. But Robin is from a different place.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27The same place, but I was studying photography.

0:01:27 > 0:01:31- At De Montfort University. - We've got a bit of breadth there.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33Photography and chemistry.

0:01:33 > 0:01:37A lot of chemistry. I'm going to be so upset if science doesn't come up.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40- LAUGHTER - We will, too.

0:01:40 > 0:01:41Do you still quiz?

0:01:41 > 0:01:45We don't quiz all together, because we live in... Well, three of us

0:01:45 > 0:01:46live in Leicester, still,

0:01:46 > 0:01:52but Jacob lives in York and Becci is in Wakefield now.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54We haven't quizzed together as a team in a long time.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56It's the first time in a while.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59I don't think we've had a team called Chemical Waste before.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02Am I to take from that you don't feel you are yet

0:02:02 > 0:02:05in the jobs that you should be with your chemistry degrees?

0:02:05 > 0:02:10When we started quizzing, we didn't intend to continue with science,

0:02:10 > 0:02:13really, but it turns out most of us have.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15So it's not the most appropriate name any more.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17But we're sticking with it.

0:02:17 > 0:02:18Good luck to Chemical Waste.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21Every day there is £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our Challengers.

0:02:21 > 0:02:24However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:02:24 > 0:02:26the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:26 > 0:02:30So, Chemical Waste, the Eggheads have won just the last game,

0:02:30 > 0:02:33which means £2,000 says you can't beat them today.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of History.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40- Not chemistry.- I think that's you.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43- Yes, that's me.- Phil on history. OK. Phil against which Egghead?

0:02:43 > 0:02:45I'll take History

0:02:45 > 0:02:47- and I'll go against Tremendous Knowledge Dave, I think.- OK.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Phil from Chemical Waste against Tremendous Knowledge Dave on History.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Just to ensure there's no conferring,

0:02:53 > 0:02:55would you please take your positions in our question room.

0:02:57 > 0:03:01Have you got a history background, Phil, or are you another chemist?

0:03:01 > 0:03:04No, I'm a chemist. It's more of an interest than anything else.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06- And you are a drummer, as well? - Yes. Whenever I get the chance.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09Not so much in Leicester, because it would annoy the neighbours.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12But back at home, yeah, when I get the chance.

0:03:12 > 0:03:13It annoys your parents then, does it?

0:03:13 > 0:03:17Probably a little bit, but they let me get away with it.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19OK, well, get the drums out if you get into trouble in this round.

0:03:19 > 0:03:23History is the subject, and would you like to go first or second?

0:03:23 > 0:03:24I'll go first, please.

0:03:27 > 0:03:31Here we go. How many times did Queen Mary I of England marry?

0:03:34 > 0:03:41Mary I was married to Philip II of Spain.

0:03:41 > 0:03:46So I think I'm going to go for probably just once.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49- Is he right about Philip II? - Great answer.- Well done.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52You got it right, Philip. OK.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55We are dealing with an historian disguised as a chemist.

0:03:56 > 0:03:59This guy knows his history. Taken us by surprise.

0:03:59 > 0:04:03Tremendous Knowledge Dave, who was king of Great Britain and Ireland

0:04:03 > 0:04:06for nearly 60 years, until his death in 1820?

0:04:10 > 0:04:14- That's George III. - George III is quite right.

0:04:15 > 0:04:16OK, Phil, back to you.

0:04:16 > 0:04:21Samarkand, a major city in modern-day Uzbekistan,

0:04:21 > 0:04:25had a central position on which historic trade route?

0:04:30 > 0:04:36OK, I don't know this one. The Silk Road ended up in China.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40So I guess it's a bit out of the way.

0:04:40 > 0:04:44Um... I think am going to have to go for the Appian Way.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49Now, let's have a think. Appian Way, Eggheads, is that Rome?

0:04:49 > 0:04:53- Brindisi in Italy. - So, in Italy. It's the Silk Road.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55- Oh, it is.- Phil, sorry.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57I was sure you were going to get that right,

0:04:57 > 0:04:59you were playing with such confidence.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01OK, Tremendous Knowledge Dave, to take the lead.

0:05:01 > 0:05:05In ancient Rome, a hypocaust was a type of what?

0:05:10 > 0:05:12It's a central heating system.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14Well done, Dave, you got it right. A central heating system.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17So Dave is in the lead. It means you need to get this right, Phil.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21Don't want to see you pitched out of the contest this early.

0:05:21 > 0:05:25In 1802, the Saint-Cyr Academy was founded in France

0:05:25 > 0:05:28for the training of which group of people?

0:05:32 > 0:05:37Saint-Cyr is S-A-I-N-T hyphen C-Y-R.

0:05:37 > 0:05:401802. Um...

0:05:40 > 0:05:44I guess around then there was a lot going on with the French Empire.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Napoleon was not far off.

0:05:46 > 0:05:51I don't know, but, logically, I'm probably going to go for soldiers.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Soldiers is the right answer.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59Have you put your wizard player into the first round here?

0:05:59 > 0:06:01- Yeah! - LAUGHTER

0:06:01 > 0:06:03That's a high-risk strategy.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06Because if Dave gets this one right, Phil is out.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09Where in London was the proclamation

0:06:09 > 0:06:12of the accession of Elizabeth II first read out

0:06:12 > 0:06:15on 6th February 1952?

0:06:21 > 0:06:22I don't know the answer to this.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26The temptation was to go for Buckingham Palace.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28But, you know, um...

0:06:30 > 0:06:34I am just going to veer away from it. I'll go St James's Palace.

0:06:35 > 0:06:39You've got it right. St James's Palace it is. Sorry, Phil.

0:06:39 > 0:06:40Been knocked out there.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43The wretched old Silk Road. That's so annoying.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Dave, well done, you're in the final round.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Please come back to us and we'll play on.

0:06:49 > 0:06:50Phil, I'm sorry to see you go,

0:06:50 > 0:06:52because I can tell history is your thing.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55Yeah, I quite like it. It's definitely an interest.

0:06:55 > 0:07:01I read up about it when I can, but I guess it didn't fall right this time.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04Georgie, I realise, tactically, you had to put him in for History,

0:07:04 > 0:07:06because there was a good chance of him getting the round.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09- He's a big loss. - He's definitely a big loss.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Let's see where Chemical Waste goes from here.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14Loving the team name, I must say.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17They've lost a brain, the Eggheads have not lost a brain so far.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19The next subject is Arts & Books.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22- Who would like this? - Robin's our arty man.

0:07:22 > 0:07:27- Yeah.- The non-chemist against... anyone but Dave.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29I think I'll go against Barry, please.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31OK, Robin from Chemical Waste versus Barry,

0:07:31 > 0:07:35- who, by the way, is a chemistry graduate.- Yes.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37So this is a weird one.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40The one non-chemist takes the one chemist on Arts & Books.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42I can't work it out.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44But to ensure there's no conferring,

0:07:44 > 0:07:46please take your positions.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Robin, over to you. It's Arts & Books.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Do you want to go first or second?

0:07:50 > 0:07:51I'll go first, please.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Here we go, good luck. Which pronoun is used

0:07:56 > 0:08:00as the title of an 1887 H Rider Haggard novel

0:08:00 > 0:08:02featuring the African Queen Ayesha?

0:08:05 > 0:08:07Well, straightaway, I don't know this one,

0:08:07 > 0:08:10so it's going to have to be a guess.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17I'm going to rule out Me and She and opt for the royal We.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21- Eggheads, do you know? - ALL: She.- She is the answer.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24She is the original "she who must be obeyed".

0:08:24 > 0:08:26- Is that right?- That's where the phrase comes from, yes.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28OK, your chance to take the lead, Barry.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31The work known in English as The Three Musketeers

0:08:31 > 0:08:34was originally written in which language?

0:08:36 > 0:08:40- It was written in French.- French is the right answer. Well done.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Back to you, Robin.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45Which French phrase meaning "living picture"

0:08:45 > 0:08:48refers to a group of motionless people

0:08:48 > 0:08:50striking a dramatic pose?

0:08:55 > 0:08:59Again, not so sure on this one, so it's going to be another punt.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02I think I'm going to go with facade passant.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05They're cleverly made up, these ones.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Judith, you're the French person here.

0:09:08 > 0:09:09I think it's tableau vivant.

0:09:09 > 0:09:12It's tableau vivant. Barry, your question.

0:09:12 > 0:09:16Who wrote the novel The Soldier's Wife, first published in 2012?

0:09:21 > 0:09:23I don't know this one.

0:09:23 > 0:09:27Joanna Trollope is more commonly associated with Aga sagas.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30The Soldier's Wife doesn't sound that way.

0:09:30 > 0:09:34I shall go for Helen Dunmore, but I really don't know.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37- Judith knows.- Joanna Trollope. - Joanna Trollope is correct.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39I think she did The Rector's Wife,

0:09:39 > 0:09:41so maybe she had a series of wives.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44Barry got it wrong. Not Helen Dunmore. Joanna Trollope.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46How about that, Robin?

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Back in with a chance, but you need to get this one right.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51Chapter 1 of Book 1 of which novel begins,

0:09:51 > 0:09:53"'I have been here before,' I said?"

0:09:59 > 0:10:02I think the clue might be in the title with this one,

0:10:02 > 0:10:06I'm going to go Brideshead Revisited.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08Yeah, that is good quizzing, because you're right.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10Well done.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14It's one each. Barry,

0:10:14 > 0:10:16if you get this right, you're in the final round.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19Which actress appeared in a reference manual for illustrators

0:10:19 > 0:10:20early in her career,

0:10:20 > 0:10:24and so was inadvertently the model for Jack Vettriano's work

0:10:24 > 0:10:26The Singing Butler?

0:10:30 > 0:10:33What an excellent question.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34I know this picture very well,

0:10:34 > 0:10:39but I didn't realise it was an actress who appeared as a model.

0:10:39 > 0:10:40And I really don't know.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43It could be Sarah Parish, but the woman in the picture

0:10:43 > 0:10:45doesn't strike me as looking like Sarah Parish,

0:10:45 > 0:10:47so I will discount her.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50I think I'll go for Orla Brady, but I really don't know this one.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53Orla Brady is the right answer, Barry. Well done.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56Sorry, Robin, you started to motor there,

0:10:56 > 0:10:58but I'm afraid he has beaten you in the round,

0:10:58 > 0:11:00so you're not in the final and Barry is.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03If you both come back to us, we'll play on.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05As it stands, Chemical Waste have lost two brains

0:11:05 > 0:11:06from the final round,

0:11:06 > 0:11:09the Eggheads have not lost a brain. The next subject is Sport.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11This, I think, is going to be good, isn't it?

0:11:11 > 0:11:14ALL DISCUSS CONTENDER

0:11:14 > 0:11:17Stereotype and throw in the boy!

0:11:17 > 0:11:19- Jacob, I think.- OK, I'll take Sport.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21OK, Jacob on Sport against...

0:11:21 > 0:11:24obviously it can't be Dave or Barry.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28- Pat or Judith.- Judith, I guess. OK, I'll take Judith, please.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30- Oh, dear.- I'm amazed.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32She's not amazed at all.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36Jacob from Chemical Waste versus Judith from the Eggheads on Sport.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Jacob on Sport, would you like to go first or second?

0:11:44 > 0:11:46I will go first, please.

0:11:49 > 0:11:50- Good luck to you.- Thank you.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52Martina Navratilova, Steffi Graf,

0:11:52 > 0:11:56and which other tennis star were the only players

0:11:56 > 0:12:01to win the ladies' singles title at Wimbledon between 1981 and 1993?

0:12:06 > 0:12:07I have no idea, to be honest.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10Sport is, well, not an interest,

0:12:10 > 0:12:12to say the least, to be honest!

0:12:14 > 0:12:17I couldn't even begin to start to eliminate any of them,

0:12:17 > 0:12:21if I'm completely honest. I've never heard of any of them.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26When in doubt, I'm pretty sure everyone says go down the middle,

0:12:26 > 0:12:30so I'll do the same, I'll say Lindsay Davenport, please.

0:12:30 > 0:12:31Lindsay Davenport.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Funnily enough, this is stronger territory for you,

0:12:34 > 0:12:37- because you love tennis. Who do you think it is?- Chris Evert.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39It is Chris Evert, Jacob.

0:12:39 > 0:12:44- Did Lindsay Davenport win? - She did once, in 2001, or something.

0:12:44 > 0:12:49- Virginia Wade was the Jubilee year. - 1977, yes.- '77, yes.

0:12:49 > 0:12:50I remember it. My mum went crazy.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52Here's your question, Judith.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55At the 2012 Olympics, Perri Shakes-Drayton

0:12:55 > 0:12:58represented Team GB in which sport?

0:13:01 > 0:13:03She won a gold, but not at the Olympics,

0:13:03 > 0:13:07but she represented GB in athletics.

0:13:07 > 0:13:10Athletics is the correct answer. OK, Jacob.

0:13:11 > 0:13:17More than 20 African countries boycotted the 1976 summer Olympics

0:13:17 > 0:13:20in protest at which country's sporting links with South Africa?

0:13:25 > 0:13:27Again, I'm not really sure.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29I'm trying to think which countries

0:13:29 > 0:13:32would have sporting links with South Africa.

0:13:33 > 0:13:37I know New Zealand does a few things with South Africa, such as cricket,

0:13:37 > 0:13:40rugby and stuff like that, so,

0:13:40 > 0:13:42I will go with New Zealand.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45But not sure why they'd be annoyed.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47New Zealand is the right answer. Well done.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Judith, your question to take the lead.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51Who was the first footballer

0:13:51 > 0:13:55to win the PFA Young Player Of The Year Award twice?

0:13:59 > 0:14:03Don't like football! Um...

0:14:03 > 0:14:05How can you win it twice?

0:14:05 > 0:14:07Because you're older the second time you win it,

0:14:07 > 0:14:09you don't count, as it were.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12Michael Owen was a kind of boy wonder, wasn't he?

0:14:12 > 0:14:14I'm going to say Michael Owen.

0:14:14 > 0:14:18Might have guessed that, but it's not right. Ryan Giggs is the answer.

0:14:18 > 0:14:19Jacob, this is tricky now.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22You've got one point, this is your third question.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24Get this one right and put some pressure on Judith.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Your team needs you. Take your time here, Jacob.

0:14:26 > 0:14:32The Kovacs and the Cassina are moves performed in which sport?

0:14:36 > 0:14:39Again, I'm not really sure. Um...

0:14:40 > 0:14:45For some reason, I find myself being drawn to dressage.

0:14:45 > 0:14:49But, really, I've no idea why. Um...

0:14:49 > 0:14:52Really don't think it is gymnastics or figure skating,

0:14:52 > 0:14:54so I think I'll go with dressage.

0:14:54 > 0:14:55Dressage. Judith, you might know,

0:14:55 > 0:14:58because you like dressage. Is it dressage?

0:14:58 > 0:15:01- It's either that or figure skating. - Anyone on the team?

0:15:01 > 0:15:05Figure skating, I think, but I don't know.

0:15:05 > 0:15:09Everyone is wrong. It's gymnastics.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11- Sorry, Jacob.- Never mind.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12Judith, your question.

0:15:12 > 0:15:18What colour are the racing silks of the Godolphin horse-racing team?

0:15:20 > 0:15:22If you get this right, Judith, you're in the final round.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24They are blue.

0:15:24 > 0:15:28- You've won on sport again. - Well, it pays to read the papers.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31There we are, you've done it. Well done, on sport.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33And she's taken her place in the final round,

0:15:33 > 0:15:36so maybe that whole jinx is now history.

0:15:36 > 0:15:39- Sorry, Jacob, you've been knocked out by Judith.- That's OK.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42The upside is it will improve her mood for several days!

0:15:42 > 0:15:45Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams.

0:15:46 > 0:15:49As it stands, Chemical Waste have lost three brains

0:15:49 > 0:15:50from the final round.

0:15:50 > 0:15:54What do we do now, Georgie? Do we switch tactics,

0:15:54 > 0:15:58- bring on another chemist? - We're going to have to do!

0:15:58 > 0:16:01Yeah. I think we'll just go for...

0:16:01 > 0:16:03Have to see what comes up and work it out from there.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Desperate for science to come up. It has to come up.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09But I have to tell you, the next subject chosen at random is Music.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13- That's Becci.- We've not had a chemistry question. Becci, it's you.

0:16:13 > 0:16:19- Yeah.- OK. Before you go... - Oh, sorry!- Tell us which Egghead.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23- There they all are. Pat or Kevin?- Kevin.- Who's better?

0:16:24 > 0:16:26Literally up to you.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Um, I'll go Kevin.

0:16:29 > 0:16:30OK, some people just get a thrill

0:16:30 > 0:16:33from being in the question room with Kevin.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35That's because of his legendary status.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37So it is Becci from Chemical Waste

0:16:37 > 0:16:39versus Kevin from the Eggheads on Music.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Please go to the question room now.

0:16:43 > 0:16:46Becci, although you are a chemist, you love your music, I know.

0:16:46 > 0:16:50- Yes, you could say that. - Because you do musical theatre.

0:16:50 > 0:16:56I do. I direct at a youth theatre, so that's good.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59We're doing Alice In Wonderland at the moment. A musical version.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Isn't that wonderful?

0:17:01 > 0:17:05- So, music, Becci, would you like to go first or second?- I'll go first.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12Here is your question, Becci. Good luck against the maestro.

0:17:12 > 0:17:16Which song, a UK number one in 2011, contains the lines,

0:17:16 > 0:17:18"It's not about the money, money, money,

0:17:18 > 0:17:20"we don't need your money, money, money?"

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Um, I believe that song

0:17:27 > 0:17:30is sung by Jessie J.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33If it's not, I've just made a fool of myself,

0:17:33 > 0:17:36but I'm going to say that it is Price Tag.

0:17:36 > 0:17:37Price Tag is right. Well done.

0:17:39 > 0:17:40Kevin, your question.

0:17:40 > 0:17:44"Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47"Like the first dewfall on the first grass,"

0:17:47 > 0:17:49are lines from which popular song?

0:17:54 > 0:17:59- Yeah, it's Morning Has Broken. - It is, indeed, Morning Has Broken.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Becci, which of these singers

0:18:01 > 0:18:04was born in Bay City, Michigan, in 1958?

0:18:08 > 0:18:111958, which would make, um...

0:18:11 > 0:18:15This is where I'm going to get my maths wrong. Um...

0:18:15 > 0:18:1955, will it make them?

0:18:19 > 0:18:22Um...

0:18:22 > 0:18:25I have...

0:18:25 > 0:18:26no idea, really.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31I'm going to say that... Could be really insulting here,

0:18:31 > 0:18:36but I'm going to say Madonna's probably in her mid-50s,

0:18:36 > 0:18:38so I'm going for Madonna.

0:18:38 > 0:18:42That's excellent play, Becci, you're quite right. It's Madonna.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45And I think Debbie Harry is over 60 now, is that right?

0:18:45 > 0:18:48- She is, yeah.- And Cher, as well, probably.- Yes.

0:18:48 > 0:18:51OK. Kevin, your question.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54The songs I Hope I Get It and I Can Do That

0:18:54 > 0:18:56feature in which musical?

0:18:59 > 0:19:03I think... Well, I hope the clue is in the song title,

0:19:03 > 0:19:07because A Chorus Line is about a group of hopefuls

0:19:07 > 0:19:11trying to get parts in a big Broadway musical.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13So I think it is A Chorus Line.

0:19:13 > 0:19:14It is A Chorus Line.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17Right up Daphne's street, that question, but she's not here.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19So 2-2, Becci, you're playing well.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22See if we can get you into the final and pitch Kevin overboard,

0:19:22 > 0:19:23which would help.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26Who composed the music for the pantomime ballet

0:19:26 > 0:19:28The Miraculous Mandarin?

0:19:32 > 0:19:38I've spent a lot of time, recently, looking over classical composers

0:19:38 > 0:19:45and these three have not been included in my research.

0:19:45 > 0:19:50So, I wouldn't even know where to start to narrow down.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54So I'm going straight down the middle, I think, and say Bruckner.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58It's Bartok. It is Bartok, I'm afraid..

0:19:58 > 0:20:00OK, Kevin, your question for the round.

0:20:00 > 0:20:04In which category did Gotye's album Making Mirrors

0:20:04 > 0:20:07win a Grammy in 2013?

0:20:11 > 0:20:13Hm. Hm.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16I'll eliminate New Age, but...

0:20:19 > 0:20:22He had a No 1 from it with Somebody That I Used To Know.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27I mean, how would it be described?

0:20:27 > 0:20:30Could it be described as alternative music?

0:20:31 > 0:20:34I, um...

0:20:37 > 0:20:40I think I would have to go for urban contemporary.

0:20:40 > 0:20:42What do you think, team?

0:20:42 > 0:20:44I think it's alternative.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46Yeah. You're wrong, Kevin.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48It's alternative, is it? Hm. OK.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50Could maybe have been either,

0:20:50 > 0:20:52but you got it wrong. So, alternative music.

0:20:52 > 0:20:53Well done to you, Becci,

0:20:53 > 0:20:56because you have taken the strongest Egghead to Sudden Death.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58A tiny bit harder now for you.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01I don't give you alternative answers, OK?

0:21:01 > 0:21:05Which band released the album The First Of A Million Kisses in 1988?

0:21:05 > 0:21:06Take your time.

0:21:08 > 0:21:12I am just going to have to take a guess at it,

0:21:12 > 0:21:16and I know I'm going to kick myself, but I will say...

0:21:18 > 0:21:22I'm worried I'm going to get one that isn't even in the '80s now. Er, U2?

0:21:22 > 0:21:26- It's not U2. When were you born? - '91.- '91! Wow.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28Not having been there, physically existed,

0:21:28 > 0:21:31at a time when this record came out is quite a good alibi.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33It's Fairground Attraction.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36Sorry, Becci, but let's see what happens here to Kevin.

0:21:36 > 0:21:37For the round, Kevin.

0:21:37 > 0:21:42Which progressive rock band, formed in 1966 in Lancashire,

0:21:42 > 0:21:44became known by the initials BJH?

0:21:46 > 0:21:48I think I'm in the same situation.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50I'm sure I'm going to kick myself with this.

0:21:50 > 0:21:51Nothing's coming to mind.

0:21:51 > 0:21:55Formed in Lancashire in '66.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57I can't think of anything, Jeremy, I'm afraid.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59My mind has gone completely blank.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02- That doesn't happen very often. - No, it does occasionally.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04It's something that I know I should know

0:22:04 > 0:22:07and so I know I'm going to know the answer.

0:22:07 > 0:22:09Oh, you're going to know the answer.

0:22:09 > 0:22:11I'll take that as a pass.

0:22:11 > 0:22:13If I say the word "Barclay", you'll get it straightaway.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16- James Harvest, yes. - Barclay James Harvest.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19Oh, so you're still in it, Becci, come on. Good luck to you.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21Book your place in the final.

0:22:21 > 0:22:24Which venue was the home of the New York Philharmonic

0:22:24 > 0:22:30until 1962, when it moved to the Lincoln Center?

0:22:31 > 0:22:33I have absolutely no idea.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37And it should be something...

0:22:39 > 0:22:40..that I should know.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45I have absolutely no idea.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48So I am going to make something up.

0:22:48 > 0:22:53SHE LAUGHS And, um, I will say the New York Opera House.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56- Do you know this, Kevin? - Carnegie Hall?

0:22:56 > 0:22:58Carnegie Hall is the answer.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00So Kevin has a chance for the round here on Sudden Death.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02The musician Anoushka Shankar

0:23:02 > 0:23:06is best known for playing which stringed instrument?

0:23:06 > 0:23:10I think she has followed in her father Ravi's footsteps

0:23:10 > 0:23:13- and I think she's a sitar player. - Sitar is the right answer.

0:23:13 > 0:23:15You've taken the round, Kevin. Bad luck, Becci.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17You held him off for a while,

0:23:17 > 0:23:19but it wasn't to be.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21So tricky times for Chemical Waste in the final.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25Come back to us, both of you, and we will play that final round.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28So this is what we have been playing towards.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30It's time for the final round,

0:23:30 > 0:23:32which, as always, is General Knowledge.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:23:34 > 0:23:38won't be allowed to take part in this round. So that's Robin, Phil,

0:23:38 > 0:23:40Jacob and Becci, from Chemical Waste.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Would you please leave the studio.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47- Georgie, I know this wasn't the plan, quite.- No, it wasn't.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49But you can definitely still win.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51You're playing to win Chemical Waste £2,000.

0:23:51 > 0:23:55Barry, Pat, Judith, Kevin and Dave, you are playing for something

0:23:55 > 0:23:58that money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:58 > 0:24:02As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn. This time,

0:24:02 > 0:24:04the questions are all General Knowledge

0:24:04 > 0:24:06and you are allowed to confer.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08What's to do?

0:24:08 > 0:24:09So, Georgie, the question is,

0:24:09 > 0:24:13is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?

0:24:13 > 0:24:16- And would you like to go first or second?- I'll go first, please.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21All right, good luck to you, Georgie, here we go.

0:24:21 > 0:24:24Which of these is a French word for "bird"?

0:24:28 > 0:24:30I'm very pleased this came up

0:24:30 > 0:24:32because I actually know a bit of French.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34I did French S-level.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37"Grenouille" is frog.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39"Lapin" is rabbit

0:24:39 > 0:24:41and "oiseau" is bird.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43I wish I could give you three points for that.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45I feel we should give three points for that.

0:24:45 > 0:24:49It's just one, but you've got it right. Well done. Oiseau.

0:24:49 > 0:24:50OK, Eggheads.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53Ethel Skakel married

0:24:53 > 0:24:55which member of the Kennedy family in 1950?

0:24:59 > 0:25:02- Who's the spokesman, Pat?- It's Pat.

0:25:02 > 0:25:04- It's Robert. - Ethel was Robert's wife.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06Had lots of children.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09That's Robert F Kennedy.

0:25:09 > 0:25:14Robert F Kennedy is correct. OK. They're chasing you.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17Here we go, Georgie, Lendal Bridge

0:25:17 > 0:25:20and Skeldergate Bridge are in which city?

0:25:20 > 0:25:21"Lendal" is L-E-N-D-A-L.

0:25:24 > 0:25:28I don't know this one.

0:25:28 > 0:25:31Trying to think. I'm just going to have to guess randomly.

0:25:31 > 0:25:32I can't think.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36I'm going to go for Preston.

0:25:36 > 0:25:38- I don't know the answer.- Eggheads?

0:25:38 > 0:25:42- I suspect it's York. - It's York. It's York.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45Your chance to pull ahead, Eggheads.

0:25:45 > 0:25:48What type of creature is a Bluefaced Leicester?

0:25:50 > 0:25:52- KEVIN:- Leicester are sheep.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54A Bluefaced Leicester.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02I don't think it'll be a duck. There are Leicester sheep.

0:26:02 > 0:26:06There are certainly Leicester sheep, so that's the logical....

0:26:06 > 0:26:08- Red Leicesters!- That's a cheese!

0:26:08 > 0:26:11- Yeah! - LAUGHTER

0:26:11 > 0:26:15Don't be distracting!

0:26:15 > 0:26:17Yeah, I mean, I can't...

0:26:17 > 0:26:21- It would be tricky to go for anything else.- We go for sheep?

0:26:21 > 0:26:23Yeah.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Er, we're not sure at all. We're going to go for sheep.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28It is sheep. Well done, Eggheads.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30Bluefaced Leicester are sheep.

0:26:30 > 0:26:31That means, Georgie,

0:26:31 > 0:26:33you've got to get this one right to stay in the game.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36Take your time. Here we go. Third question.

0:26:36 > 0:26:40In which film did Lauren Bacall play a character called Vivian Rutledge?

0:26:47 > 0:26:49Again, I don't know this one.

0:26:51 > 0:26:55Trying to think. I'm not very good on older films.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58Something's drawing me to The Big Sleep,

0:26:58 > 0:27:01but there's not really any basis behind it.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Um, so... - SHE SIGHS

0:27:06 > 0:27:08I'm just going to go for The Big Sleep, I think.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11- You've got it right. Well done.- Thanks.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14Here's your question, Eggheads.

0:27:14 > 0:27:15If you get this one right, the contest is over.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17In the card game contract bridge,

0:27:17 > 0:27:21how many tricks must the team win to make a small slam?

0:27:21 > 0:27:23Sometimes known as a "little slam".

0:27:26 > 0:27:27ALL AGREE ON 12

0:27:27 > 0:27:30Because 13 is a grand slam.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33It should be 12, it's just one below the maximum.

0:27:33 > 0:27:36That should be 12.

0:27:36 > 0:27:39- I fear we have some bridge players here.- Yeah.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41The correct answer is 12.

0:27:41 > 0:27:44We say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52Commiserations to the team known as Chemical Waste.

0:27:52 > 0:27:53Still a great name!

0:27:53 > 0:27:56The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them

0:27:56 > 0:27:58and they reign supreme over Quiz Land, still.

0:27:58 > 0:28:01I'm afraid it means you won't be going home with the £2,000,

0:28:01 > 0:28:05so the money rolls over to our next show. Eggheads, congratulations.

0:28:05 > 0:28:07Who will beat you? Join us next time

0:28:07 > 0:28:09to see if a new team of Challengers

0:28:09 > 0:28:11have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14£3,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye.
