These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
Together they make up the Eggheads, | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:16 | |
The question is, can they be beaten? | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz Challengers | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
They are the Eggheads. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
And taking on the might of our quiz Goliaths today | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
are Doctors' Notes. Now, this team of student friends | 0:00:36 | 0:00:40 | |
are all members of the Medics Orchestra | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
at the University of Manchester. Let's meet them. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
Hi. I'm Rohan, I'm 22 and I'm the conductor. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
Hi. I'm Rhiannon, I'm 20 and I've been playing the flute for 12 years. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:52 | |
Hi. I'm Roanna, I'm 19 and I play the French horn in the orchestra. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:56 | |
Hi. I'm Aaron, I'm 22 and I've been playing the clarinet for two years. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
Hi. I'm Eleanor, I'm 24 and I've played the oboe for 16 years. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
-So, Rohan and team, welcome. Good to see you. -Hi. -How do you do? | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
We've got all different instruments - clarinet and flute and oboe. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:11 | |
-You're the conductor, Rohan. -That's right. I have the enormous privilege | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
of standing at the front and directing. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
And tell us where the Medics Orchestra plays. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
We tend to play around various churches in South Manchester. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
We rehearse in the students' union | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
-and usually do a couple of concerts each year. -Do you quiz together? | 0:01:26 | 0:01:31 | |
-We haven't actually quizzed before, have we? -No. -No, not yet. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
Hopefully this is a good one. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:35 | |
So, you watch the show, you watch these characters here. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:39 | |
Have you discerned any particular medical conditions | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
-you can help them with? -Well... | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
-That would be telling. -We have to stop ourselves from | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
-spotting people in the street, really. -No need to intervene. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:50 | |
Anyway, they're probably on very good form, the Eggheads, | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
certainly very confident today, and good luck, as you take them on. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
for our Challengers. However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, | 0:01:59 | 0:02:03 | |
the prize-money rolls over to the next show. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
So, Doctors' Notes, the Eggheads have won the last four games | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
which means £5,000 says you can't beat them today. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
-Are you ready to have a go? -Definitely. -Brilliant. OK. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
First head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
How about that? | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
-Very good. -Shall I do that? That's my subject, yep. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
OK. Rhiannon, the beautifully-named Rhiannon, against which Egghead? | 0:02:22 | 0:02:27 | |
-Oh, where shall we go? -I don't know. -Who do you think? | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
Who do you want? You're doing it. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
-Chris? Shall we go Chris? -Yes. -Chris, please. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
OK. So, Rhiannon from Doctors' Notes against Chris on Music from the Eggheads. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:40 | |
And to ensure there's no conferring, would you please take your positions in the Question Room? | 0:02:40 | 0:02:45 | |
Rhiannon, I'm assuming that your name was chosen | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
cos of Fleetwood Mac, was it? | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
Well, my grandad was Welsh so I don't think so, | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
but maybe. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 | |
And tell us about your studies and what you're doing. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
I'm in my second year at the minute at Manchester. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
So, next year, I'll be moving to Preston | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
and starting hospital skills there. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
And you will be a GP at the end of it all or what? | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
I don't really know at the minute. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
I'm thinking about paediatrics, so working with kids, | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
or maybe becoming a GP. I'm not really sure at the moment. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
-Good luck with that... -Thank you. -..and good luck with this. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
It's Music and you can go first or second, Rhiannon. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
Please can I go first? | 0:03:21 | 0:03:22 | |
Here we go with your first question. The pop group The Undertones | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
was formed in the mid-'70s in which part of the UK? | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
Hmm. OK. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
So, The Undertones... | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
So, '70s was a bit before my time. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
Erm... | 0:03:44 | 0:03:45 | |
I'm drawn between Wales and Northern Ireland, | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
but I'm thinking more Northern Ireland, The Undertones. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
Erm... | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
I think I'm just going to have to guess. Northern Ireland, please. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:59 | |
Northern Ireland is the right answer. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:01 | |
-Lucky. -How did the logic work there? | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
The Undertones took you to Northern Ireland. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
-Yeah, I'm not really sure why. -Really good. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
OK, Chris. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:11 | |
The Air That I Breathe was a UK number-two single | 0:04:11 | 0:04:15 | |
for which group in 1974? | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
# All I need is the air that I breathe. # | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
Yeah, that was The Hollies. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
Yeah, it was The Hollies. Correct. Rhiannon. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
Which singer-songwriter was named Best British Male Solo Artist | 0:04:30 | 0:04:34 | |
at the 2013 BRIT Awards? | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
I should really know this cos I love Ben Howard and I love Ed Sheeran. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:45 | |
I think it was Ben Howard cos I know he won a BRIT award, | 0:04:45 | 0:04:48 | |
so I'm going to go Ben Howard. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:50 | |
Well done. Ben Howard is correct. Good stuff. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:54 | |
You've got two out of two. Chris. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:56 | |
Though he is now best known as a composer, | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
what was Gustav Mahler's main line of employment? | 0:04:58 | 0:05:02 | |
Mahler... | 0:05:06 | 0:05:07 | |
19th-century Austria. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
He wasn't an instrument maker. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
Er... | 0:05:15 | 0:05:16 | |
Was he a teacher? | 0:05:16 | 0:05:18 | |
He was a conductor. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
Not on a bus either. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
Let's check with Rohan here, fellow conductor. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
-He was indeed a conductor. A very fine one. -Yeah, you're right, Chris. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
Well done. We've had it confirmed by a conductor. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
Rhiannon, the first performance of Edward Elgar's work | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
The Dream of Gerontius, which for various reasons | 0:05:37 | 0:05:41 | |
was a near disaster, took place in which city? | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
OK. I haven't got a clue. Erm... | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
Oh, wow. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:56 | |
I don't think it was Dundee cos I think I would have | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
heard of that, maybe. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:01 | |
So... | 0:06:03 | 0:06:05 | |
I'm just going to have to guess. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
I'm drawn to Birmingham, so we'll go Birmingham, please. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:11 | |
-You're very good at this game. -Oh, wow. -Birmingham is right. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:15 | |
That was lucky. Again. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:17 | |
Interestingly, Chris, you're on the back foot now. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:20 | |
The doctor is operating on you. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
The Beatles song For No One features a solo played on what instrument? | 0:06:23 | 0:06:29 | |
Not banjo, not French horn. Vibraphone. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:39 | |
-OK. Who's our French horn player here? -That's me. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:43 | |
-It is French horn, Chris. -Is it? | 0:06:43 | 0:06:45 | |
It's not the best-known Beatles song. But you've gone out on that. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:49 | |
Well done, Rhiannon. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
You're through to the final round. You've done really well. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
Good stuff for our doctors. Congratulations to you. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:56 | |
Chris has been knocked out. Please, both of you, come back | 0:06:56 | 0:06:59 | |
and rejoin your teams. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
As it stands, well done to you, Rhiannon. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
That's a really good start for Doctors' Notes. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
They've not lost a brain. The Eggheads have lost one. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:08 | |
Where do we go from here? To Sport. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
-Who would like Sport? -I think that might need to be mine, really. -Yep. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:15 | |
OK. So, it's Rohan against which Egghead, Rohan? | 0:07:15 | 0:07:18 | |
Obviously, can't be Chris. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:21 | |
I think I would like to play against Daphne, please, Jeremy. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
OK. So, Rohan from Doctors' Notes, Daphne on Sport. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
I've been having a bit of a torrid time. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:31 | |
Yes, you've had a couple of bad ones, haven't you? All right. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:33 | |
Well, let's see how you do now. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
Please, both of you, go to the Question Room. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
So, Sport, Rohan, against Daphne. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
Yeah. I'm not a great sports player myself. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
I'm a pathological cricket watcher. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
I don't tend to play as much as I ought to, perhaps. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
And Daphne, you don't play so much now. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:52 | |
No, not since my teens, actually. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
I play skittles. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
I've been in the same team for 47 years. | 0:07:57 | 0:08:01 | |
Where do you play that? | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
-In Weston at the Working Men's Club. -Really? -Yeah. -How nice. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:08 | |
-And we've never, ever talked about that before. -Oh, right. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
We're called The Fiddlers. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:12 | |
You've revealed your secret sporting history. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:14 | |
-Have we ever had a question on skittles? I don't think so. -No. -OK. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:18 | |
So, here we are, Rohan. We've just discovered that Daphne | 0:08:18 | 0:08:20 | |
is a current sporting person. Would you like to go first or second? | 0:08:20 | 0:08:24 | |
I think I'll go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
Here are your questions. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:30 | |
Which team's stadium was used to stage the baseball competition | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
of the 1984 Olympic Games? | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
Gosh. I really know almost nothing about baseball. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:48 | |
Clearly all American. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
I don't particularly know where baseball is strong. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:54 | |
Something's drawing me towards Cincinnati... | 0:08:54 | 0:08:58 | |
purely on a minuscule hunch. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:00 | |
So I think I will go for Cincinnati, please. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:02 | |
Let me check this with Daphne. She's good on her stadiums. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
Los Angeles Dodgers. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
Los Angeles Dodgers, Rohan, is the answer. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:10 | |
-I've actually been there. -You've been there? -Yes. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:14 | |
On our honeymoon, we went to Los Angeles | 0:09:14 | 0:09:18 | |
and two quiz people that we'd met in Australia took us to a game | 0:09:18 | 0:09:24 | |
-and we watched the Dodgers against the San Diego Padres. -Tremendous. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:29 | |
-It was brilliant. -OK, Daphne. Your question. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
In addition to his Olympic silver and bronze medals | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
in the 4x400m relay, Kriss Akabusi | 0:09:35 | 0:09:39 | |
won an Olympic bronze in which event? | 0:09:39 | 0:09:41 | |
I think it was 400m hurdles. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:52 | |
I think you're right. 400m hurdles. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:55 | |
OK, Rohan, | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
to catch up, the footballer Gareth Bale who joined Spurs in 2007 | 0:09:58 | 0:10:03 | |
began his senior career with which team? | 0:10:03 | 0:10:06 | |
Gosh. I've unfortunately rather lost touch with football | 0:10:10 | 0:10:14 | |
in the few years recently. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
Of course, he's been a very good player for Spurs. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:22 | |
I wonder if he was perhaps playing for Southampton | 0:10:22 | 0:10:26 | |
before he went to Spurs. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:27 | |
Southampton's correct. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
Well done. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:32 | |
OK, Daphne. The tennis player Vitas Gerulaitis | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
was born in which country? | 0:10:36 | 0:10:37 | |
Oh, he's American. USA. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
USA is the right answer. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:45 | |
Rohan, you've got to get this one right. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
In 2007, who became the first England wicketkeeper | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
to hit a century in his test-match debut? | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
Gosh. I really ought to know this. Erm... | 0:11:00 | 0:11:03 | |
I'm strongly drawn towards Matt Prior | 0:11:03 | 0:11:07 | |
who I believe started playing around that time. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
I'm wondering if he played in the 2006 Ashes though. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:14 | |
I don't think he did. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:17 | |
Geraint Jones kept wicket for the 2005 Ashes. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
Tim Ambrose had a brief period in-between, although... | 0:11:22 | 0:11:27 | |
something suggests that Tim Ambrose maybe also hit a century on debut. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
I think I'll have to go for Tim Ambrose, please. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:37 | |
-They're all wicket keepers, are they? -They are indeed. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
Yeah, you were right the first time, actually, Matt Prior, | 0:11:39 | 0:11:43 | |
-and you just veered away. -That's very disappointing. | 0:11:43 | 0:11:46 | |
-I really ought to have known that. -I'm sure you do. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:49 | |
Cricket is your thing, I know. Daphne, well done. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
You've won on sport and not even a single question about skittles. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:55 | |
Do, both of you, please come back and rejoin your team-mates. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:59 | |
As it stands, Doctors' Notes have lost one brain from the final round, | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
the Eggheads have also lost one. The next subject for you is Science. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:08 | |
Now this, with a team of doctors, should be good. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:11 | |
I was going to do this category though so... | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
Do you want to do it? Roanna. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
-Roanna? -Yeah. -Against which Egghead? Can't be Chris or Daphne. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:23 | |
-Dave. -Shall we do Dave? -OK. -Can we have Dave, please? | 0:12:23 | 0:12:26 | |
OK. This is going to be Roanna from Doctors' Notes | 0:12:26 | 0:12:29 | |
against Tremendous Knowledge Dave from the Eggheads on Science. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:32 | |
And to ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
-Roanna, I gather you like trampolining? -I do, yeah. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:39 | |
And you do it every week? | 0:12:39 | 0:12:41 | |
I try to, yeah, when medicine doesn't get in the way anyway. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:44 | |
Doctor, musician and a trampolinist, that's quite a combination. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:47 | |
Roanna, do you want to go first or second against Dave? | 0:12:47 | 0:12:50 | |
I'll go first, please. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:51 | |
Here we go. Good luck. The French scientist Andre-Marie Ampere | 0:12:54 | 0:12:59 | |
is best known for his work in which area? | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
I can't think of any links with the name | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
and any of the particular options. Um... | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
I'm just going to take a stab at botany. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:20 | |
-I wonder whether Ampere... Is that the clue, Dave? -Yes, it is. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:25 | |
Ampere's a unit of electricity so it's physics. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
-Physics. It's the amp, yeah. -Yeah. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
Physics is the answer. Over to Dave. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:33 | |
When a dog is too hot, it regulates body temperature by panting | 0:13:33 | 0:13:37 | |
and by sweating primarily from which part of its body? | 0:13:37 | 0:13:41 | |
I don't know. It's going to be a YouTube moment, this. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:49 | |
I don't think it's tail. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
Erm... | 0:13:51 | 0:13:52 | |
-I'll go ears, but probably wrong. -It is wrong, actually. -Foot pads. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:58 | |
It is foot pads, yeah. I thought tongue was going to be in there. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:01 | |
-I've never heard of this. -I've just not heard of that. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
-I've never heard of this one. -No. -Anyone have a dog? -I've got a dog. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:08 | |
-You've got a dog?! -I don't notice the dog sweating. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:13 | |
-So, yeah. -OK. Roanna... | 0:14:13 | 0:14:16 | |
that's good news for you. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:18 | |
What type of creature is the snoring rail? | 0:14:18 | 0:14:21 | |
I'm leaning towards the snake | 0:14:28 | 0:14:30 | |
because rail, a long, thin sort of thing so... | 0:14:30 | 0:14:36 | |
I'm going to go with venomless snake. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:39 | |
-Anyone know on the Eggheads' side? -Bird. -Bird. -Yeah, it's a bird. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:42 | |
Flightless bird. Snoring rail. Dave, your question. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:46 | |
The Rankine cycle is a mathematical model used to help explain | 0:14:46 | 0:14:51 | |
the thermodynamics of what? | 0:14:51 | 0:14:54 | |
He's going to kill me, Chris. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
I'm not entirely sure, but I'm going to go steam engines, | 0:15:03 | 0:15:06 | |
but you know, it's a bit of a guess. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:10 | |
No, you've got it right, Dave. Well done. Well done. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:14 | |
So, Roanna... | 0:15:14 | 0:15:16 | |
-you need to get this one right. -Yep. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:18 | |
To which of the three main classes of rock | 0:15:18 | 0:15:21 | |
do the majority of rocks at the Moon's surface belong? | 0:15:21 | 0:15:25 | |
Igneous rocks tend to be around volcanoes. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:34 | |
Sedimentary ones are at the bottom of the sea and metamorphic... | 0:15:34 | 0:15:39 | |
I think... | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
I don't know. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
I'm thinking sedimentary. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:46 | |
I'm just going to have to go with that, I think. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:50 | |
The answer is igneous. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:52 | |
Sorry, Roanna. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:53 | |
Dave has taken the round, | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
despite the incident with the curious dog. | 0:15:56 | 0:15:59 | |
-Yeah. -Tremendous Knowledge Dave will be in the final. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:04 | |
Roanna, you won't be. But there's still hope for your team, | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
don't worry. Please come back and rejoin us. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:09 | |
So, we've had rounds with Rohan, Rhiannon and Roanna on this side | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
and Doctors' Notes have lost two brains from the final round, | 0:16:14 | 0:16:17 | |
the Eggheads have lost one so far. The next subject is Politics. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:21 | |
So, it's going to be | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
not a Rohan or a Rhiannon. Aaron or Eleanor? | 0:16:23 | 0:16:26 | |
-I think I'm going to do this one. -Aaron. OK. Against... | 0:16:26 | 0:16:30 | |
-Kevin or Barry? Either end. -We don't want Kevin. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:35 | |
I think probably Barry. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:38 | |
-What do you think? -Barry. -Barry. Kevin. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:41 | |
-What do you reckon? -Kevin. -Kevin. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:45 | |
All right. They've volunteered you for Kevin. Good stuff. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
It's Aaron from Doctors' Notes versus Kevin from the Eggheads. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:51 | |
To ensure there's no conferring, please go to the Question Room. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
-So, Aaron the clarinet player on Politics. -Yep. | 0:16:55 | 0:16:58 | |
OK. Good luck against Kevin. Would you like to go first or second? | 0:16:58 | 0:17:01 | |
I think I'll go second. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:03 | |
Here we go, Kevin. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:07 | |
Bouvier was the maiden name of which First Lady of the United States? | 0:17:07 | 0:17:11 | |
That was Jackie Kennedy. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:18 | |
Jackie Kennedy is correct. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:21 | |
Your question, Aaron. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:22 | |
Which often disparaging term is sometimes applied to the staff | 0:17:22 | 0:17:26 | |
of European organisations, especially the European Union? | 0:17:26 | 0:17:30 | |
I think it's Eurocrats because "crat" means something | 0:17:35 | 0:17:39 | |
to do with ruling, like democracy. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:42 | |
Eurocrats is right. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:44 | |
Yeah, kind of a pun on bureaucrats, I guess. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
Kevin, the Five Star Movement headed by Beppe Grillo | 0:17:47 | 0:17:51 | |
played an important role in which country's domestic politics in 2013? | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
Beppe Grillo himself is a comedian and satirist | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
and he set this movement up out of... | 0:18:01 | 0:18:04 | |
well, partly self-aggrandisement, obviously, | 0:18:04 | 0:18:07 | |
but it's also pure disenchantment with the political class | 0:18:07 | 0:18:13 | |
and he attracted so many followers that they wound up | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
with a very important role in the election. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
Got a lot of seats. And it's Italy. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:22 | |
Italy is the right answer. And he's only regretting calling it | 0:18:22 | 0:18:25 | |
Five Star which, of course, | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
links it to an extremely unfashionable band. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:29 | |
-Pop group, yeah. -Popular music combo. Aaron. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:33 | |
The founding members of the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance | 0:18:33 | 0:18:37 | |
were from which part of the world? | 0:18:37 | 0:18:39 | |
Oh, now you're asking. It might... | 0:18:43 | 0:18:46 | |
The only thing I can possibly think of is... | 0:18:46 | 0:18:50 | |
there was The Marshall Plan in America and Europe | 0:18:50 | 0:18:55 | |
and it might have been the opposite in the Communist countries. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
I'm going to say Eastern Europe. | 0:18:57 | 0:18:59 | |
Eastern Europe is the right answer. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:02 | |
Well done. Well done indeed. OK, Kevin. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:05 | |
In 2012, who became the first non-lawyer in modern times | 0:19:05 | 0:19:11 | |
to hold the post of Lord Chancellor? | 0:19:11 | 0:19:14 | |
The post of Lord Chancellor is now, as a result of the reforms | 0:19:18 | 0:19:22 | |
that have happened in the last few years, it's been doubled up | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
with Justice Secretary and the Justice Secretary who | 0:19:25 | 0:19:29 | |
then acquired that title as well was Chris Grayling. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:32 | |
Chris Grayling is correct. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:34 | |
So, you need this one, Aaron. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
In February, 2013, Park Geun-hye was inaugurated | 0:19:36 | 0:19:41 | |
as the first female president of which country? | 0:19:41 | 0:19:44 | |
-Could you spell the name, please? -Yes. Sorry. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:49 | |
P-A-R-K and then G-E-U-N hyphen H-Y-E. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:54 | |
Right. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:57 | |
Um, it doesn't sound that Korean, to me. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
But I'm not that good on that part of the world. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
I'm going to say Vietnam. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
-Let's see if Kevin knows. Kevin? -That is South Korea. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:12 | |
South Korea it is, Aaron. I'm really sorry. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:14 | |
You've been pipped at the post by Kevin | 0:20:14 | 0:20:17 | |
and he's knocked you out. If you come back to us, both of you, | 0:20:17 | 0:20:20 | |
we will play that final round. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:21 | |
So, this is what we have been playing towards. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
It is time for the final round | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
which, as always, is General Knowledge. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
allowed to take part in this round. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:33 | |
So, Rohan, Roanna and Aaron from Doctors' Notes, | 0:20:33 | 0:20:36 | |
and also Chris from the Eggheads, | 0:20:36 | 0:20:38 | |
would you please now leave the studio? | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
So, Rhiannon and Eleanor, here you are. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
-Which two instruments have we got here, by the way? -I'm flute. -Oboe. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:48 | |
Flute and oboe against the Eggheads. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:50 | |
You're playing to win Doctors' Notes £5,000. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:52 | |
Kevin, Dave, Daphne and Barry, you're playing for something | 0:20:52 | 0:20:56 | |
that money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:59 | |
As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
This time, the questions are all General Knowledge | 0:21:02 | 0:21:05 | |
and you are allowed to confer. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:06 | |
So, Rhiannon and Eleanor, the question is, | 0:21:06 | 0:21:09 | |
are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four? | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
-Would you like to go first or second? -First? -Yeah, we'll go first. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:16 | |
Here we go. Good luck to you both. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
Someone who is inexperienced is said to be wet behind the what? | 0:21:21 | 0:21:25 | |
-Ears. -Ears. That's ears, yeah. -It's ears. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
-That would have thrown you, Dave, wouldn't it? -It would have done. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:37 | |
It would have sorted me out. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:39 | |
OK. Eggheads, | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
in Greek mythology, Helios, or He-lios, is the God of what? | 0:21:41 | 0:21:46 | |
-The sun. -The sun. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
Yes, Helios is the chap in Greek mythology | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
who drew the chariot of the sun across the sky. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:55 | |
The sun is the right answer. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
Don't be alarmed by them adding information, | 0:21:57 | 0:22:00 | |
it doesn't count and they are just showing off. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:03 | |
Which novel is reputed to have sold 200,000 copies in the UK | 0:22:04 | 0:22:09 | |
on the 10th of November 1960? | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
Is it...? | 0:22:12 | 0:22:13 | |
-Oh... -Well... | 0:22:18 | 0:22:22 | |
I've not read any of those. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:23 | |
But when was Casino Royale written, do you know? | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
It was the first Ian Fleming, eh, first James Bond book, | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
but I don't know when it was written. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:31 | |
Lady Chatterley's Lover, quite controversial at the time, | 0:22:31 | 0:22:34 | |
maybe those people ran out to buy it. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:37 | |
I don't know. That's a DH Lawrence book. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
I'm not sure exactly when it was written. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:42 | |
So, 1960s. 200,000 copies. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
The only one of those I know is Casino Royale. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
So, I would have thought that would have sold a lot, but maybe more... | 0:22:53 | 0:22:56 | |
I'm just thinking, "First in the series," it's like well-known... | 0:22:56 | 0:22:59 | |
-Yeah. -I don't know. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
So, what's Lady Chatterley's...? | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
That's a DH Lawrence book, like quite controversial, a bit racy. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
-Do you know when that was written? -No. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:08 | |
I'm not sure. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:10 | |
-Is that one more famous than Casino Royale? -Probably as a book, yeah. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:14 | |
-Do you want to go for Casino Royale? -I don't know. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:17 | |
What's Lady Chatterley's Lover all about? | 0:23:17 | 0:23:21 | |
-Is that racism, did you say? -No, no, no. It's a bit racy. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:24 | |
-Maybe it's that one then. -Genuinely don't know. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
-Shall we go for that one? -Really sorry if it's wrong. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:31 | |
No, it's all right. | 0:23:31 | 0:23:32 | |
We're going to go for Lady Chatterley's Lover. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:35 | |
That was a sensation, Lady Chatterley's Lover, | 0:23:35 | 0:23:37 | |
there was a big court case trying to stop it being published | 0:23:37 | 0:23:40 | |
and all that. So, you've got it absolutely right. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:43 | |
It wasn't like a normal book, wasn't it? | 0:23:44 | 0:23:47 | |
It was a sensation. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:48 | |
Yeah. It was prosecuted on the grounds of obscenity, | 0:23:48 | 0:23:51 | |
so when that case was lost, Penguin were allowed to publish it, | 0:23:51 | 0:23:56 | |
it just became a sensation. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:57 | |
There we are, well done. Brilliant, brilliant play. | 0:23:57 | 0:24:00 | |
Eggheads, Fred Quimby was best known as the producer | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
of what type of films? | 0:24:06 | 0:24:08 | |
ALL: Cartoons. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:13 | |
Yes, we've seen Fred Quimby in a cartoons, so it's Cartoons. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
Cartoons is the right answer. | 0:24:16 | 0:24:18 | |
Two each. Your question. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:22 | |
EAK, E-A-K, is the international vehicle registration code | 0:24:22 | 0:24:26 | |
for what African country? Is it...? | 0:24:26 | 0:24:29 | |
I've been to Kenya, I should know this. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:34 | |
I don't think it's Ethiopia. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:40 | |
It rings a bell, so I would say Kenya, but... | 0:24:40 | 0:24:42 | |
I have no idea, so I'm happy to go for Kenya. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
Yeah, cos Ethiopia's too obvious, isn't it? Angola sounds... | 0:24:48 | 0:24:52 | |
-EAK would... Yeah. -We'll go for Kenya. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
It stands for East Africa Kenya. You are quite right. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:00 | |
So you've done well there, you got three out of three. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:04 | |
I should have known that. I was just like, "Maybe..." | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
Three out of three in the final round, | 0:25:08 | 0:25:09 | |
you can't ask for any more than that from the Doctor's Notes. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:13 | |
You are going to be very, very good doctors | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
cos they are definitely good quizzers. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
Eggheads, here we are again. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
If you get this wrong, the jackpot goes to the Challengers. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:24 | |
Socialism and the English Genius is the sub title of which | 0:25:24 | 0:25:30 | |
long essay by George Orwell? Is it...? | 0:25:30 | 0:25:33 | |
Why would they mention the unicorn which is | 0:25:40 | 0:25:42 | |
an emblem of Scotland in the title of the English Genius? | 0:25:42 | 0:25:45 | |
That may be to throw us. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:49 | |
Have you heard of any of those? | 0:25:51 | 0:25:54 | |
Yes, Decline Of The English Murder. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:55 | |
-Have you? -That is an essay by George Orwell. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:59 | |
It may well be that the other two are. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:02 | |
I've read the Decline Of The English Murder, I don't think | 0:26:02 | 0:26:05 | |
that's about socialism at all, it's about exactly what it says. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:08 | |
I've got a feeling it's My Country Right Or Left. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:10 | |
What about you, Daph? | 0:26:10 | 0:26:12 | |
Well, you know what a guesser I am. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:15 | |
And I would have guessed The Lion And The Unicorn. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:19 | |
-Oh. -Oh, right. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:21 | |
For no reason whatsoever cos I think My Country Right Or Left | 0:26:21 | 0:26:26 | |
-sounds like it ought to be... -Sounds what, sorry? | 0:26:26 | 0:26:31 | |
It sounds as if the subtitle refers to it. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
You know, it's more plausible. But I don't know. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:39 | |
We just don't know it. | 0:26:39 | 0:26:41 | |
What are you saying now, Kev? | 0:26:41 | 0:26:44 | |
I went with you with South America for the bumblebee... | 0:26:44 | 0:26:48 | |
I'll just point that one out. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:50 | |
As you've gathered, we really don't know. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:55 | |
We're pretty certain it's not the Decline Of The English Murder. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:58 | |
But I'm holding my flag out for My Country Right Or Left | 0:26:58 | 0:27:01 | |
and I've pulled the other eggs along with me, | 0:27:01 | 0:27:04 | |
so I hope I'm right, otherwise I've got some explaining to do tonight. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:08 | |
My Country Right Or Left is your answer. Of course, | 0:27:08 | 0:27:10 | |
if they've got this wrong you've won. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
What would you do with the money if they've got it wrong? | 0:27:12 | 0:27:15 | |
I'm going to Canada, so I would spend it on the flights. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:17 | |
OK. | 0:27:17 | 0:27:19 | |
Listening to you is so fascinating. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:21 | |
Barry had, I wouldn't say an inkling, | 0:27:21 | 0:27:24 | |
but maybe a logical progression to My Country Right Or Left. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
And then just as you were going to seal the deal, Daphne did her thing, | 0:27:27 | 0:27:31 | |
no-one can explain how you do what you do, Daphne, | 0:27:31 | 0:27:34 | |
but of course Daphne had it right. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:36 | |
Of course it's The Lion And the Unicorn, | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
and we say congratulations, Challengers, you have won! | 0:27:38 | 0:27:41 | |
So, you're going to go to Canada hopefully. | 0:27:48 | 0:27:51 | |
I am going to go to Canada. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:53 | |
Fantastically done. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:55 | |
You hung on in there and you've beaten the Eggheads. | 0:27:55 | 0:27:59 | |
Eggs, well, it's tough, your side of the table, I know that. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:01 | |
Congratulations to Doctor's Notes, you've just won £5,000. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:05 | |
You are officially cleverer than the Eggheads. | 0:28:05 | 0:28:07 | |
How about that? | 0:28:07 | 0:28:09 | |
You've proved that they can be beaten. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 | |
Join us next time on Eggheads to see if a new team of challengers | 0:28:11 | 0:28:13 | |
will be just as successful and as much fun to see play. | 0:28:13 | 0:28:17 | |
Until then, goodbye. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:19 |
