0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:10 > 0:00:13Together may they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most

0:00:13 > 0:00:15formidable quiz team in the country.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?

0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challenges

0:00:27 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33They are the Eggheads.

0:00:33 > 0:00:37And taking on our awesome general knowledge geniuses today are...

0:00:37 > 0:00:40..from Cardiff.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43This team of friends are all associated with their local

0:00:43 > 0:00:46football club - Grange Harlequins AFC.

0:00:46 > 0:00:47Let's meet them.

0:00:47 > 0:00:49Hi. I'm Steve.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52I'm 61 and a part-time Business Development Director.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56Hi, I'm Terry. I'm 64 and a retired telecommunications engineer.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00Hi. I'm Ken, I'm 65 and I'm a part-time engineer.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi. I'm Neil. I'm 55 and a retired Post Office worker.

0:01:04 > 0:01:05Hi. I'm Malcolm. I'm 61

0:01:05 > 0:01:08and an operational manager in local government.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11- Steve and team, welcome.- ALL: Hello. - Good to see you.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13Tell us about the Quins, Steve.

0:01:13 > 0:01:17Well, the Quins were a local Cardiff side who played their football

0:01:17 > 0:01:21on Saturday afternoon parks and managed to move their way

0:01:21 > 0:01:24through the pyramid system right to the top division in Wales.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26They're no longer in the top division, sadly,

0:01:26 > 0:01:28but we've spent a lifetime playing or supporting them.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31- And it's gratifying to go and cheer them on, still, is it?- It is.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34Although sometimes there is not too much to cheer, but on a good day,

0:01:34 > 0:01:36there's plenty to cheer.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38Now, I gather you are not quizzers in the sense that you quiz

0:01:38 > 0:01:40together a lot, is that right?

0:01:40 > 0:01:43We've quizzed once, Jeremy, just once.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45I have looked at all your biographies

0:01:45 > 0:01:49and you have all got passions, actually, haven't you?

0:01:49 > 0:01:52There's a Squeeze fan down here somewhere, just like me.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54Let's hope they come up!

0:01:54 > 0:01:58- So, you've got different knowledge, different address.- Yes.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Well, good luck. Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash

0:02:01 > 0:02:04up for grabs for our Challengers, however if the fail to defeat

0:02:04 > 0:02:07the Eggheads, the prize-money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:07 > 0:02:12So, Quins Crafty Quizzers, the Challengers won the last game which

0:02:12 > 0:02:13proves it can be done

0:02:13 > 0:02:16and that means £1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18- Do you want to start? - Yes, please, Jeremy.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21OK, the first head-to-head battle is the subject of Geography.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23So, Quins, who would like this?

0:02:23 > 0:02:26Who's going to be the first sacrificial lamb, then?

0:02:26 > 0:02:30- Looks like you, Terry.- Jeremy, we're going to put our star on first.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33- We are going to have Terry on first. - Terry on Geography.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36You can choose an Egghead. Here they all are. Grinning madly.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39- I think Daphne.- You're pretty sudden about that.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41- You're definite about it.- Definite.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43No matter what happens, I was going to pick Daphne.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46- It's his ambition to play against Daphne!- His ambition!

0:02:46 > 0:02:49Geography has got nothing to do with it! OK.

0:02:49 > 0:02:52Terry from Quins Crafty Quizzers versus Daphne from the Eggheads.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55To ensure there is no conferring would you please take your positions

0:02:55 > 0:02:57in the Question Room?

0:02:57 > 0:03:00- So, Geography, Terry. Are you ready? - I'm ready.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04Any particular places you've loved visiting in the world?

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Grand Canyon, Canada,

0:03:06 > 0:03:09I'd like to go to Australia, but I haven't been there yet.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11- But you love North America, do you? - Yeah.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14- What was great about the Grand Canyon?- Everything.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17But especially when I flew over it in a plane.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20- And what is it, everything you imagine?- Even more.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24You read about these places and until you actually visit them,

0:03:24 > 0:03:26you don't know how inspiring they are.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28- A photo doesn't really do it, does it?- No.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32- Daphne, have you been to the Grand Canyon?- Yes, twice.

0:03:32 > 0:03:37- Once on my honeymoon and we went again in 2004.- Yes.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40- It's awe inspiring, isn't it?- Yes. - Good luck in this round.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Terry, you can choose. Would you like to go first to second?

0:03:42 > 0:03:44I would like to go first please, Jeremy.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Here we go with your first set of questions. Good luck.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52The Scottish town of Perth was reinstated as a city to

0:03:52 > 0:03:53commemorate what event?

0:03:58 > 0:04:01I'm thinking...

0:04:02 > 0:04:04Not too sure of this one at all

0:04:04 > 0:04:06but I'm thinking it's the millennium.

0:04:08 > 0:04:12- Daphne, do you know?- It's the Queens Diamond Jubilee.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Yes. It was. The Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

0:04:16 > 0:04:21OK, Daphne. New Zealand takes its name from a region of which country?

0:04:24 > 0:04:27That is the Netherlands.

0:04:27 > 0:04:31Yes. I see it now. I never knew that. Netherlands is right.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34Terry, try and catch up now.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37Which city was the capital of the traditional French

0:04:37 > 0:04:38province of Limousin?

0:04:44 > 0:04:45I would...

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Once again, I'm not too sure of this,

0:04:47 > 0:04:49but I think it would be Limoges.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52- Is the right answer. Yes. You've got it.- ALL: Well done, Terry.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55Hang on, we've got a Prefab Sprout fan here.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57You know the connection?

0:04:57 > 0:04:59- No.- This is a very obscure thing.

0:04:59 > 0:05:04Their first single was called Lions In My Own Garden Exit Someone.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06And that's because he liked going to Limoges

0:05:06 > 0:05:09- and those were... - Really?- Yeah, yeah.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11So, always when I see Limoges, I think Prefab Sprout.

0:05:11 > 0:05:14And I saw that you were a Sprout fan.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17- Lions In My Own Garden.- Obviously not as big a fan as you, Jeremy.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19I'm a big fan, big fan.

0:05:19 > 0:05:25OK, Daphne. Ithaca, New York is the home of which US university.

0:05:29 > 0:05:30To take the lead.

0:05:30 > 0:05:34I think Brown is Rhode Island.

0:05:34 > 0:05:38And... Princeton...

0:05:38 > 0:05:41I think it's Cornell.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Cornell is the right answer.

0:05:44 > 0:05:48This is the disadvantage of playing Daphne, Terry.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51You're seeing right now. There are many advantages.

0:05:51 > 0:05:55The big disadvantage is that she tends to get the answers right.

0:05:55 > 0:05:59So you need this one. Which of these US states has a border with Canada?

0:06:03 > 0:06:07Once again my first inkling is for Vermont.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09So, I think I'll go for Vermont.

0:06:09 > 0:06:13Yeah, brilliant. You got it right. All that American travel helped you.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Vermont is right.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18So, Daphne, if you get this one right you are in the final round.

0:06:18 > 0:06:23Olkhon Island with an area of around 730 square kilometres is

0:06:23 > 0:06:25the largest island in which lake?

0:06:30 > 0:06:35- Could you spell it?- Yes. O-L-K-H-O-N.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37O-L... yes.

0:06:37 > 0:06:41I think that's Lake Baikal.

0:06:41 > 0:06:45The correct answer is Baikal.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Well done, Daphne. Terry, sorry.

0:06:47 > 0:06:48You were beaten by our Egghead

0:06:48 > 0:06:52and as a result you won't be able to help your team in the final round.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Terry and Daphne, please return to us.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58So, as it stands Quins Crafty Quizzers have lost one

0:06:58 > 0:07:02brain from the final round whilst the Eggheads have not lost any.

0:07:02 > 0:07:06So any thoughts on strategy, Steve? You're a football supporting team.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Maybe you want to change positions?

0:07:08 > 0:07:10We actually set Terry up as a sacrificial lamb

0:07:10 > 0:07:13because the other four are going to cruise it now.

0:07:13 > 0:07:17- I think that's the tactic.- OK, maybe five in midfield...- Maybe. Yes.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19- Stop their attack. - Stop the attack. OK.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22That's always hard to do with this team over here,

0:07:22 > 0:07:25but let's see how you go. The next subject is Film and Television.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27So, who would like this? Film and TV?

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Go on, you do it.

0:07:29 > 0:07:33- I'll take it, Jeremy. - Neil. Against anyone but Daphne.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36THEY CONFER

0:07:36 > 0:07:39OK. We will take on Chris, please.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41Chris, how does that feel?

0:07:41 > 0:07:43It feels better than Sport!

0:07:43 > 0:07:47Neil from Quins Crafty Quizzers versus Chris from the Eggheads and

0:07:47 > 0:07:49to ensure there is no conferring would you please

0:07:49 > 0:07:51take your positions in the Question Room?

0:07:53 > 0:07:55So, Neil, Film and Television for you.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Any particular programmes you love?

0:07:57 > 0:08:02I like a bit of the American drama series more than most. You know.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05- That's what I like.- So, The Wire and all that kind of stuff?

0:08:05 > 0:08:10- Yeah, that type of thing. Anything criminal.- Criminal.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12JEREMY LAUGHS

0:08:12 > 0:08:15What about you Chris on those American ones - Six Feet Under,

0:08:15 > 0:08:18- The Wire, Sopranos, all of those? - Used to watch The Sopranos.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Don't watch any of the others.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23I mean, my current American weakness is actually The Big Bang Theory.

0:08:23 > 0:08:24Tell us about that.

0:08:24 > 0:08:28It is a comedy basically about four postgraduate geeks

0:08:28 > 0:08:33and, you know, it's a frothy American comedy but quite good fun and of

0:08:33 > 0:08:36course all the scientific jargon they come out with is not gobbledygook.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39- It's proper scientific staff. - OK, let's see how you do.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42Film and Television. Neil, you can choose the first or second set

0:08:42 > 0:08:44- of questions.- I'll go first, Jeremy, please.

0:08:47 > 0:08:48Here we go.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51Rachel Stevens, Anita Dobson and Felicity Kendal have all

0:08:51 > 0:08:54appeared as contestants on which TV show?

0:09:00 > 0:09:03I think that's Strictly Come Dancing, Jeremy.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06Strictly Come Dancing is the right answer. Well done.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09Chris, your question.

0:09:09 > 0:09:12Joshamee Gibbs, James Norrington and Tia Dalma

0:09:12 > 0:09:15are characters from which film franchise?

0:09:19 > 0:09:21Ah...

0:09:21 > 0:09:23It is not Indiana Jones, is it?

0:09:23 > 0:09:27And it's not Toy Story so it's got to be Pirates Of The Caribbean.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30Pirates Of The Caribbean is also right. One each.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Neil...

0:09:32 > 0:09:35Joaquin Phoenix was nominated for a Best Actor

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Oscar for his role in which 2012 film?

0:09:44 > 0:09:46I know it's not Django Unchained.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49I do believe it's The Master, Jeremy.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51You think it's The Master. I think your team disagree here.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54- What do you think, guys? - I thought it was Django Unchained.

0:09:54 > 0:09:58- That's what I thought.- Yes. Team, I am glad you're not in there.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Neil has got it right.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03- The Master is the right answer! - ALL: Well done, Neil.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07Minority of one, but right - how rewarding.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10Chris, which character from Little Britain has the catch phrase

0:10:10 > 0:10:11"I'm a lady"?

0:10:16 > 0:10:19Yeah, that's David Walliams as Emily Howard.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21It is indeed Emily Howard.

0:10:21 > 0:10:22"I'm a lady."

0:10:23 > 0:10:28- You can do it better than me, can't you?- No.- Go on.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30Yes, well, I'm a lady.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34Right, so two each.

0:10:34 > 0:10:38Neil, who played the title role in the US sitcom According To Jim?

0:10:43 > 0:10:45Ooh...

0:10:45 > 0:10:46It was definitely a James...

0:10:48 > 0:10:52I think I'll go for James Belushi.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57James Belushi is right. Well played.

0:10:59 > 0:11:00You're on the edge here, Chris -

0:11:00 > 0:11:03if you get this one wrong you're not in the Final Round.

0:11:03 > 0:11:08Angela Lansbury received her first Oscar nomination for which film?

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Was she in Samson And Delilah?

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Victor Mature.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20The Harvey Girls, that's a fairly lightweight musical...

0:11:22 > 0:11:25..about setting up restaurant cars in Santa Fe.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29Don't think she was in Samson and Delilah, but I've no idea if she

0:11:29 > 0:11:33was in Gaslight, which is a drama and might well have attracted awards.

0:11:33 > 0:11:34I'll say Gaslight.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38Gaslight is the right answer.

0:11:38 > 0:11:39Very good logic there.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41Three questions each, the scores are level -

0:11:41 > 0:11:43we got to Sudden Death.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46Neil, I don't give you alternative answers, OK?

0:11:46 > 0:11:47Yep.

0:11:47 > 0:11:51Jeremy Piven took on the title role in which TV drama series,

0:11:51 > 0:11:54first shown in the UK in January 2013?

0:11:57 > 0:12:01I don't even think I can give you an answer for that, Jeremy.

0:12:01 > 0:12:06No, I'll pass. I can't even think of one.

0:12:06 > 0:12:07Not even a guess?

0:12:07 > 0:12:10- No, sorry, Jeremy. - OK, it's a pass.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12Mr Selfridge is the answer.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17Here we go, Chris, your question for the round.

0:12:17 > 0:12:21Which American sitcom starring John Lithgow featured four extra

0:12:21 > 0:12:25terrestrials who pretended to live as a family on earth?

0:12:25 > 0:12:28This was great fun, it was one of my favourites.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30It's Third Rock From The Sun.

0:12:31 > 0:12:33Third Rock From The Sun is the right answer.

0:12:33 > 0:12:34Well done, you're in the Final Round.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37Sorry, Neil, just at the very end he pipped you there.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39You've been knocked out as well.

0:12:39 > 0:12:43Please, both of you, come back and join your team-mates.

0:12:43 > 0:12:45As it stands, Quins Crafty Quizzers

0:12:45 > 0:12:47have lost two brains from the Final Round.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50The Eggheads are still intact. The next subject is Arts & Books.

0:12:50 > 0:12:51Who would like this?

0:12:52 > 0:12:54THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER

0:12:55 > 0:12:58It's either me or Malcolm.

0:12:58 > 0:12:59Haven't got a clue.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04It'll have to be me, I suppose - the sacrificial lamb.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Go on, then...

0:13:07 > 0:13:09OK, I'll take it on, Jeremy.

0:13:09 > 0:13:13OK, Ken, anyone but Chris or Daphne, so who would you like?

0:13:13 > 0:13:14I'll take Dave, please.

0:13:14 > 0:13:18OK. Ken from Quins Crafty Quizzers versus

0:13:18 > 0:13:20"Tremendous Knowledge" Dave from the Eggheads.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22Please, go to the Question Room now.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26Ken, I'm thinking you want Charles Dickens to come up.

0:13:26 > 0:13:31It would be something I might stand a chance with, Jeremy, but I'll

0:13:31 > 0:13:35just wait and see what you throw at me and just hope for the best.

0:13:35 > 0:13:37Read a lot of Dickens, have you?

0:13:37 > 0:13:38I watched a lot of the Dickens

0:13:38 > 0:13:43and I've started reading Dickens to my grandchildren,

0:13:43 > 0:13:45to try and get them interested in books.

0:13:45 > 0:13:46OK, Ken, good luck.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50Arts & Books, would you like the first or second set of questions?

0:13:50 > 0:13:52I'll go first again, please, Jeremy.

0:13:54 > 0:13:55Here we go, good luck.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59William Wordsworth was appointed Poet Laureate in which year?

0:14:04 > 0:14:07It was definitely not 1943.

0:14:07 > 0:14:11And I'm thinking that 1743 is a bit early,

0:14:11 > 0:14:14so I'm going to plump for 1843.

0:14:15 > 0:14:171843 is the right answer.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20Well done, Ken.

0:14:20 > 0:14:25Dave, in Victor Hugo's Les Miserables, Jean Valjean is

0:14:25 > 0:14:28given a prison sentence for stealing what?

0:14:31 > 0:14:34I don't know. Erm...

0:14:34 > 0:14:39I'm going to have to go loaf of bread, but no certainty about it.

0:14:39 > 0:14:42Les Miserables is not something that I've got into at all.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Let's go to our musicals correspondent Daphne Fowler...

0:14:45 > 0:14:46- Yes?- Was he right?

0:14:46 > 0:14:48He's completely right.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50You would have been in pain if he got that wrong?

0:14:50 > 0:14:52Loaf of bread is the right answer.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54I will go and see the film now.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57- Go with Daphne.- Will do.

0:14:57 > 0:15:02Ken, the Welsh-born artist Barry Flanagan who died in 2009 was

0:15:02 > 0:15:06best known for his series of large brass sculptures of which creatures?

0:15:10 > 0:15:13This is one that I don't really know.

0:15:13 > 0:15:17I'm trying to think logically what you would sculpt.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20I can't see...hares being...

0:15:21 > 0:15:25I would go, and it is a total guess to be honest,

0:15:25 > 0:15:27but I would go for badgers.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30It's not badgers, actually.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33It is hares!

0:15:33 > 0:15:36Large brass sculptures of hares.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38Dave, to take the lead -

0:15:38 > 0:15:43the Diagram Prize is awarded to books with what type of title?

0:15:46 > 0:15:47I need a diagram to...

0:15:49 > 0:15:52It's either oddest or longest, I would have thought, but...

0:15:54 > 0:15:59I'm just thinking, the longest title'd be hard to quantify.

0:15:59 > 0:16:00Erm...

0:16:00 > 0:16:04People could just write something with 100 things.

0:16:05 > 0:16:10I'll go oddest, but no, no certainty on this at all.

0:16:10 > 0:16:12Oddest is the right answer.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15- Oh, wow.- The Diagram Prize - oddest titles.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20Ken, you need to get this one right.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23In Shakespeare's Hamlet, which character says,

0:16:23 > 0:16:27"This above all to thine own self be true"?

0:16:30 > 0:16:32I'm no great shakes on Shakespeare...

0:16:33 > 0:16:34Erm...

0:16:34 > 0:16:37Again, I'm going to have to have a guess.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42Obviously, I recognise a few of the names there.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45The one that I'm looking at is Polonius,

0:16:45 > 0:16:47so I'm going to go for Polonius.

0:16:47 > 0:16:48Polonius is correct.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Well done, Ken.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52OK, Dave.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55The Rhyme royal, a stanza with seven lines,

0:16:55 > 0:16:58was introduced into English poetry by which writer?

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Rhyme is spelt r-h-y-m-e?

0:17:04 > 0:17:06- Yeah.- Rhyme royal.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10I'll go Alexander Pope.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14Eggheads don't like that answer.

0:17:14 > 0:17:15Which is it?

0:17:15 > 0:17:17- ALL: Chaucer. - Chaucer.- Chaucer.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20The stanza with seven lines was Geoffrey Chaucer.

0:17:20 > 0:17:22Sorry, Dave, you got that one wrong.

0:17:22 > 0:17:26It does mean you're level, though, so we go to Sudden Death again, Ken.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28- I don't give you alternatives, OK?- Yeah.

0:17:28 > 0:17:35The Munch Museum, dedicated to the life of the artist Edvard Munch,

0:17:35 > 0:17:37is located in which city?

0:17:37 > 0:17:38Erm...

0:17:38 > 0:17:42I've got a feeling that he was Norwegian,

0:17:42 > 0:17:45so I'm going got plump for Oslo.

0:17:45 > 0:17:46It's very good, you're right.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48Oslo is the right answer.

0:17:49 > 0:17:53And if you'd got it wrong you could have done The Scream.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56I'm doing it anyway.

0:17:56 > 0:17:57Dave.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00Kazuo Ishiguro, author of the novels Remains Of The Day

0:18:00 > 0:18:04and Never Let Me Go was born in which country?

0:18:04 > 0:18:05Japan.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08Japan is right.

0:18:08 > 0:18:09OK, back to you, Ken.

0:18:09 > 0:18:13The Twelfth Day of July is the first in a series of books featuring

0:18:13 > 0:18:17a couple called Kevin and Sadie, during The Troubles in Belfast,

0:18:17 > 0:18:19by which Scottish author?

0:18:19 > 0:18:21Oh, gosh.

0:18:21 > 0:18:22Scottish author?

0:18:22 > 0:18:26I'm struggling to think of Scottish authors.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30The name that is coming into my head is Iain Banks,

0:18:30 > 0:18:31but I know it's not Iain Banks,

0:18:31 > 0:18:35but I got nothing else to offer so I'm going to have to say Iain Banks.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38It's not Iain Banks, it's Joan Lingard.

0:18:40 > 0:18:41This for the round, Dave.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45A 19-year-old Yorkshireman named William Fisher is the title

0:18:45 > 0:18:49character of which 1959 comic novel?

0:18:49 > 0:18:50Billy Liar.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52Billy Liar by Keith Waterhouse is the right answer.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54Well done. Dave, you're in the Final Round.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Sorry, Ken, you've been knocked out.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59Played well though, but you won't be in that final.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01Come back and we will see what happens next.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06As it stands, Quins Crafty Quizzers have lost three

0:19:06 > 0:19:08brains from the Final Round - gulp -

0:19:08 > 0:19:10whilst the Eggheads have not lost any so far.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13But there's still hope. You can win, for sure.

0:19:13 > 0:19:15The next subject is sport.

0:19:16 > 0:19:17Who would like this?

0:19:17 > 0:19:20I think, Malcolm, it has to be you.

0:19:20 > 0:19:21I want to see you back with me.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26Who are we going to play with?

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Erm...Barry?

0:19:28 > 0:19:29Barry, OK.

0:19:29 > 0:19:30Barry, please.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33OK, so Malcolm from Quinn's Crafty Quizzers versus

0:19:33 > 0:19:35Barry from the Eggheads on Sport.

0:19:35 > 0:19:39And to ensure there's no conferring, please, go to the Question Room.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41Malcolm, you've got an unusual taste in sport.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45Yeah, I actually like American baseball.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48My other half has a girlfriend in Baltimore

0:19:48 > 0:19:50and we've been going out for the last ten or 12 years,

0:19:50 > 0:19:53and girls, as girls do, go shopping and me

0:19:53 > 0:19:57disappearing off to baseball for two and half, three hours

0:19:57 > 0:20:00with a beer and some popcorn is rather good.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03So, I'm a converted Baltimore Orioles fan.

0:20:03 > 0:20:04That's just fantastic.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Do you manage to watch them when you're back in the UK,

0:20:07 > 0:20:09- or is that a bit difficult? - That's a bit more difficult,

0:20:09 > 0:20:13but one of the first jobs in the morning is actually to go

0:20:13 > 0:20:16online and find out how they've got on the night before.

0:20:16 > 0:20:21The bad news is, they lost 4-3 last night, so they're now 3 and 3.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24Well, we do occasionally have baseball questions coming up,

0:20:24 > 0:20:26- don't we, Barry? - We do indeed, yes.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28You're looking nervous now, Barry.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30- We shall see. - Let's see what happens.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32Sport, Malcolm, would you like to go first or second?

0:20:32 > 0:20:34I'll go first, please.

0:20:37 > 0:20:42In 2009, which tennis player became father to the twins Mile Rose

0:20:42 > 0:20:44and Charlene Riva?

0:20:48 > 0:20:50Well, it certainly isn't Andy Murray.

0:20:53 > 0:20:58Now, Roger Federer or Jo-Wilfried...?

0:20:58 > 0:21:00I think I'm going to go with Roger Federer.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05It is indeed, well done.

0:21:06 > 0:21:07OK, Barry.

0:21:07 > 0:21:11At the 2012 London Olympics, Jessica Ennis broke the UK national

0:21:11 > 0:21:16record for her performance in which discipline of the heptathlon?

0:21:19 > 0:21:21I believe this was the 100m hurdles.

0:21:21 > 0:21:25100m hurdles is the right answer.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Second question to you, Malcolm.

0:21:27 > 0:21:32The Brazilian footballer Givanildo Vieira de Souza, who signed

0:21:32 > 0:21:37for Zenit St Petersburg in 2012, is usually known by which nickname?

0:21:41 > 0:21:45Definitely not Ronaldo.

0:21:45 > 0:21:47I'm...

0:21:47 > 0:21:49It's either Kaka or Hulk.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52I think I'm going got go with Hulk.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54Hulk is correct.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59OK, Barry, your question to stay in contention.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02Which Australian rugby league team beat

0:22:02 > 0:22:06Leeds Rhinos in the 2013 World Club Challenge?

0:22:11 > 0:22:13Do I have to say the answer to this question?

0:22:14 > 0:22:17It pains me immensely to say this,

0:22:17 > 0:22:19but unfortunately it was Melbourne Storm.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23Melbourne Storm is right.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26Was that painful for you, as a Leeds person?

0:22:26 > 0:22:27It is indeed.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30And unfortunately, they were worth the victory as well.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33- Where did that take place, that match?- It was at Headingly.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37- Did you go?- No, unfortunately, I couldn't make it that night.

0:22:37 > 0:22:38- OK.- Just as well.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40Melbourne Storm is right.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42We didn't know you were going to play this round

0:22:42 > 0:22:45so nobody's teasing you, I promise.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47Malcolm, who was the trainer of Shergar

0:22:47 > 0:22:50when he won the Epson Derby in 1981?

0:22:55 > 0:22:57Ooh, blimey.

0:22:57 > 0:22:581981.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00Shergar.

0:23:00 > 0:23:04Michael Stoute was about, certainly Vincent O'Brien was.

0:23:04 > 0:23:05Dick Hern...

0:23:05 > 0:23:08I think I'm going to go for Vincent O'Brien cos

0:23:08 > 0:23:13somewhere in the back of my mind, he was the most successful of the lot.

0:23:13 > 0:23:15- Anyone know? - It was Vincent O'Brien.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18- You all think so?- Yeah.- How interesting. Do you think so, Barry?

0:23:18 > 0:23:21- I thought it was Vincent O'Brien. - It's not - it's Michael Stoute!

0:23:21 > 0:23:23Oh, right.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25If it's an consolation, Malcolm, all the Eggheads agree with you,

0:23:25 > 0:23:28- and they're all wrong too. - And all the Quins.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30How unfair is that? You all agree too, do you?

0:23:30 > 0:23:33All the Quins as well.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36Barry, if you get this right you're in the Final Round.

0:23:36 > 0:23:42In which sport is the Espirito Santo Trophy played for every two years?

0:23:44 > 0:23:47It's certainly not table tennis.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50I don't think it's ice hockey. I believe it's golf.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54Golf is the correct answer, so you have three points.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Malcolm, you have two

0:23:56 > 0:23:59which means Barry has gone through to the Final Round.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01You're going to be reduced to one in the final, Quins,

0:24:01 > 0:24:03but let's see how you do.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05Please, come back, and we'll play that Final Round.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Steve, what happens now?

0:24:09 > 0:24:10Well, Jeremy, it reminds me

0:24:10 > 0:24:13a bit of the Randy Newman album Lonely At The Top.

0:24:13 > 0:24:17So I'm in it on my own but who know?

0:24:17 > 0:24:19Who knows?

0:24:19 > 0:24:21This is what we've been playing towards, it is

0:24:21 > 0:24:23the Final Round which is, as always, General Knowledge.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-head won't be

0:24:26 > 0:24:31allowed to take part, so, Terry, Ken, Neil and Malcolm

0:24:31 > 0:24:35from Quins Crafty Quizzers, would you, please, now leave the studio.

0:24:37 > 0:24:41Steve, you are playing to win Quinn's Crafty Quizzers £1,000.

0:24:41 > 0:24:45Dave, Daphne, Chris, Barry and Pat, you are playing for something

0:24:45 > 0:24:49that money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.

0:24:49 > 0:24:53As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn, this time the

0:24:53 > 0:24:56questions are all General Knowledge, you are allowed to confer.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58I'm sorry that doesn't help you.

0:24:58 > 0:25:02Steve, the question is, is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?

0:25:02 > 0:25:03Would you like to go first or second?

0:25:03 > 0:25:06Jeremy, I think I'll go second cos it'll take me

0:25:06 > 0:25:09longer to get the answers wrong, so I think we'll go second.

0:25:12 > 0:25:16OK, good luck to both teams, but especially to our challenger.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Eggheads, what is the English meaning of the Latin phrase

0:25:19 > 0:25:20"Deo volente"?

0:25:27 > 0:25:29That's "God willing", Jeremy.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31God willing is the right answer.

0:25:33 > 0:25:34Steve, your question.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37Who released the 2012 album Take The Crown,

0:25:37 > 0:25:40which reached number one in the UK charts?

0:25:44 > 0:25:46Well, it certainly wasn't Robbie Williams,

0:25:46 > 0:25:50so I'm left between Justin Beiber and Olly Murs.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52I'll go for Olly Murs, Jeremy.

0:25:53 > 0:25:55Actually, you know what? It was Robbie.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57- Was it? - It was Robbie Williams.

0:25:57 > 0:26:00Robbie Williams is the right answer.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03Eggheads, what is the name of the Radio 4 programme which is broadcast

0:26:03 > 0:26:07regularly at five o'clock on weekday afternoons?

0:26:10 > 0:26:12DAVE: PM

0:26:12 > 0:26:13BARRY: PM.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16I'm assured with confidence that it's PM.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18You don't know yourself, Pat?

0:26:18 > 0:26:20No, it means nothing to me.

0:26:20 > 0:26:21- Not a Radio 4 man? - Not really, no.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24- More Radio 2, I'm thinking. - Radio 3.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27- I'm hearing Radio 2. - Radio 2, sorry!

0:26:28 > 0:26:30PM is the right answer.

0:26:32 > 0:26:33Steve, in which country does the annual

0:26:33 > 0:26:37Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show take place?

0:26:37 > 0:26:40And you need to get this one right to stay in the contest.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47Now, where might there be a Westminster amongst that lot?

0:26:47 > 0:26:49Probably everywhere, I should imagine.

0:26:49 > 0:26:50Erm...

0:26:50 > 0:26:56I will go for, and it's a complete guess, I'll go for...

0:26:56 > 0:26:58USA, Jeremy.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00I'm so glad you did - it's right.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02USA is the right answer.

0:27:02 > 0:27:06So the score is two the Eggheads and one to the challenger.

0:27:06 > 0:27:10As you let them go first, if they get this one right, it is curtains.

0:27:10 > 0:27:15But they can get things wrong and it's really funny when they do.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18Which British scientist helped Christopher Wren rebuild

0:27:18 > 0:27:21London after the Great Fire and is thought to have worked

0:27:21 > 0:27:27on designs for the Royal Greenwich Observatory and Bedlam Hospital?

0:27:32 > 0:27:34DAPHNE: Robert Hook.

0:27:34 > 0:27:35I think it's Robert Hook.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38BARRY: I think it's Hook too.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41He was involved with the monument of Christopher Wren.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43PAT: The dates are entirely wrong for Davy.

0:27:43 > 0:27:46THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER

0:27:48 > 0:27:50We're going to go for Robert Hook.

0:27:50 > 0:27:52Well... They do look certain, don't they?

0:27:52 > 0:27:54They look certain.

0:27:54 > 0:27:55And they are right, it is Robert Hook.

0:27:55 > 0:27:59So we say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06So what you going to do now?

0:28:06 > 0:28:09Every time you walk past a shop or a car, Robbie Williams' music -

0:28:09 > 0:28:10hands over the ears?

0:28:10 > 0:28:13I never did like Robbie Williams and I can't stand the man now,

0:28:13 > 0:28:15so, no, I don't think so.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17Well played, Steve. Well played, team.

0:28:17 > 0:28:20Sorry you were left on your own there, it does happen quite a lot.

0:28:20 > 0:28:23Commiserations to Quinn's Crafty Quizzers.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them

0:28:25 > 0:28:29and they reign supreme over quiz land once again.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32I'm afraid it does mean you won't be going home with the £1,000,

0:28:32 > 0:28:35so the prize money rolls over to our next show.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37Eggheads, congratulations!

0:28:37 > 0:28:38Who will beat you?

0:28:38 > 0:28:41Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the

0:28:41 > 0:28:45brains to defeat the Eggheads - £2,000 says they don't.

0:28:45 > 0:28:46Till then, goodbye.
