0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:08 > 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 > 0:00:20The 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 > 0:00:33They are the Eggheads.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36And taking on the awesome might of our quiz Goliaths
0:00:36 > 0:00:38today are the Pelicans.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41Now, this team are all students at Corpus Christi College in Oxford
0:00:41 > 0:00:46and they regularly take part in the weekly quiz held in the college bar.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Let's meet them.
0:00:47 > 0:00:51Hi. I'm Jamie. I'm 19 and I'm a medical student.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Hi. I'm Aled. I'm 20 and I'm a law student.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57- Hi. I'm Melissa.- I'm 19 and I'm and English and classics student.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hi. I'm Saul. I'm 19 and I'm a chemistry student.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi. I'm Beth. I'm 19 and I'm a classics student.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07- So, Jamie and team, welcome.- Hi. - Good to see you.
0:01:07 > 0:01:08Jamie, why the Pelicans?
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Well, we all met really early on in university.
0:01:11 > 0:01:12We all go to the same college
0:01:12 > 0:01:15and the pelican is kind of our college mascot.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18So, we thought it would be an apt name today.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21That's an unofficial mascot, or it's actually in the crest, is it?
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Yeah, it's on the crest. But we've also kind of taken it under our wing.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26- Something special for us. - The college authorities
0:01:26 > 0:01:29are watching, thinking, "They've got to win today!"
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Yeah, we're nervous about what they're going to think about our performance.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37- So you quiz together, which is handy.- Yeah, regular pub quizzers.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39That's not in the college, that's outside, is it?
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Mostly, it's in the college.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44We have a bar and they have a weekly pub quiz that we go to.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46- And do you win?- Sometimes.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Usually, we pick up some form of prize, whether it's first or...last.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52And you've gone through your subjects - medical, law,
0:01:52 > 0:01:55English, classics, chemistry, so you've got a lot covered.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58- Anything missing?- Sport. Food & Drink, maybe.
0:01:58 > 0:02:03There probably is a sport undergraduate degree, but we haven't got one of those.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- Unfortunately not today, no. - History?- Maybe.
0:02:06 > 0:02:07I can attempt it.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11I can see this is a bright team, so good luck against the Eggheads here.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15Look at them, slavering at the opportunity to take you on.
0:02:15 > 0:02:19Every day, there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:02:19 > 0:02:24However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27So, Pelicans, I can tell you that the Eggheads have won just
0:02:27 > 0:02:31the last game, which means £2,000 says you can't beat them today.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- Would you like to give it a go? - Yeah, we'll try.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37OK, the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Food & Drink.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41- That was the one we don't have. There's no course in that.- No.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44We all do eat food and drink. We do that. Who shall we go for?
0:02:44 > 0:02:48You can use my get out of jail free card, if you want.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Beth is going to sacrifice herself.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53OK, the classics student on Food & Drink.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56OK, against which Egghead? Can be any one of them.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Whoever looks hungriest!
0:02:58 > 0:03:02Um... Can I take Pat, please?
0:03:02 > 0:03:06OK, so Beth from the Pelicans versus Pat on Food & Drink from the Eggheads.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10- Up for this, Pat?- Yes. Hell, yes! - LAUGHTER
0:03:10 > 0:03:13You didn't play a role in the last game, except at the end.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15All right, to ensure there's no conferring,
0:03:15 > 0:03:19would you please both take your positions in the question room?
0:03:19 > 0:03:22- So, Beth, how come you're doing Food & Drink?- Um...
0:03:22 > 0:03:24I'm sort of the one without a speciality,
0:03:24 > 0:03:27so the one topic that came up that nobody wanted to do,
0:03:27 > 0:03:31I was just thrown to the lions on, so Food & Drink it is!
0:03:31 > 0:03:34Good luck. You can choose the first or second set of questions.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37I'd like to go first, please.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44In France, what is produced by a vigneron?
0:03:49 > 0:03:53V-I-G-N-E-R-O-N. A vigneron.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Um... Right.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58French is not my strong point. Um...
0:03:58 > 0:04:03I think... I don't think it's ice cream. Um...
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Cos, like, the French for wine is "vin". It hasn't got a G in it.
0:04:06 > 0:04:11So...I think... It's going to sound stupid.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13I think I'll go for smoked meat.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Yeah.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18Let's ask Judith cos Judith lives in France.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21I live next-door to a vigneron, in the middle of a vineyard.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24And how is the smoked meat from that?
0:04:24 > 0:04:27- I think that's something to do with charcuterie.- Yeah.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30There's no smoked meat in the vigneron that you're next-door to.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32Not my vigneron, no.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Wine is the correct answer. Sorry, Beth.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Pat, which item of food is tested for freshness by a process
0:04:38 > 0:04:40called candling?
0:04:43 > 0:04:48I think... I'm not sure of the details... I think you candle eggs.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Um... An attempt to sort of half look through the shell to see
0:04:52 > 0:04:54if you can see light behind.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57I think, whatever the method is, I think it's to do with eggs.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00Eggs is the right answer.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04- What is candling? Anyone?- Hold an egg up in front of a candle flame.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08If it's really fresh, it'll be slightly translucent.
0:05:08 > 0:05:09Is that right?
0:05:09 > 0:05:12JUDITH: You can also float an egg. If it floats, it's old.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16- Right. Where does the candle come into that?- It doesn't.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20- You try and push it under water with a candle?- It's the other method.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22OK. Beth, your question.
0:05:22 > 0:05:28Haupia is a traditional coconut dessert from which US state?
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Um... Once again, I don't know.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Um...
0:05:37 > 0:05:39I don't think it's Alaska.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41Um...
0:05:41 > 0:05:43But it might be.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46I think I'll go with...
0:05:46 > 0:05:50..Hawaii cos it's sort of the more tropical one.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- I could be wrong.- Good logic. You've got it right, well done.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Hawaii, it is.
0:05:55 > 0:06:00OK, Pat, the wedding cake for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge,
0:06:00 > 0:06:03made by Fiona Cairns, had how many tiers?
0:06:05 > 0:06:10I must have read something about this, but it doesn't spring to mind.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14Well, one tier would be very, very modest
0:06:14 > 0:06:16for a big event like that.
0:06:16 > 0:06:21Fifteen sounds positively pagoda-like.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23You'd need structural engineers.
0:06:23 > 0:06:28I think eight is a lot of tiers in a cake. I'll go for eight.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Eight is the right answer.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33So he's still in the lead, Beth,
0:06:33 > 0:06:35you need to get this one right. OK?
0:06:35 > 0:06:40Arborio rice takes its name from a town in which Italian region?
0:06:47 > 0:06:50I'm such a pathetic excuse for a quiz show contestant today!
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Erm... I don't know
0:06:53 > 0:06:54at all.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57I'll go for Piedmont.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Is she right, Eggheads?
0:06:59 > 0:07:03It's not an easy question. Arborio rice. Is she right?
0:07:03 > 0:07:06I'd go for Veneto myself cos, you know, rice paddies
0:07:06 > 0:07:10in the low-lying sort of estuarine areas around Venice.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12So I'd say Veneto.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Chris would be wrong. Beth is right.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Piedmont it is. Well done.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18There we go. OK.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Pat, if you get this one right you are in the final.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25Jiggs dinner is a regional dish in which part of the world?
0:07:29 > 0:07:33- I'll have to ask you to spell it, please.- Sorry, Jiggs is J-I-G-G-S.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37Complete guess, I think. Jiggs dinner...
0:07:40 > 0:07:43I'll guess Australia. It's a complete stab.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Ah. No, you're wrong.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50It's Canada. Cooked your chances of going straight to the final, Pat.
0:07:50 > 0:07:55We go to Sudden Death. The scores are level after three questions.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59Beth, it's a bit harder, I don't give you alternatives, OK?
0:07:59 > 0:08:00Here we go.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Which beverage is traditionally made and served in Turkey
0:08:03 > 0:08:08using an open metal pot called a cezve?
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Erm... I don't have the faintest clue.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15Oh, my family went to Turkey this summer but I didn't go with them.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18That probably would have been quite useful now!
0:08:19 > 0:08:24I don't know. Erm, I'll say... a Greek spirit or something.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Ouzo is literally the closest thing I can think of
0:08:27 > 0:08:30and it's ages away, but I'll go with ouzo.
0:08:30 > 0:08:31It's not ouzo, it's coffee.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- Oh! OK.- Open metal pot.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Yeah, Turkish coffee.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38OK. Pat, for the round -
0:08:38 > 0:08:42what type of fruit is a Tydeman's Late Orange?
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Apple is tempting because there are just
0:08:44 > 0:08:46so many varieties of apple,
0:08:46 > 0:08:48and occasionally you get,
0:08:48 > 0:08:52like the Cox's Orange Pippin, apples described as being orange.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55I think I'll have to go with apple.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Apple is right. It is apple.
0:08:57 > 0:09:02Orange could have taken you in other directions, but it didn't.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04So Pat, you're in the final round.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Beth, you were beaten by our Egghead, and will not be able to help your team in the final round.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Please come back and rejoin your teams.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15As it stands The Pelicans have lost one brain from the final round,
0:09:15 > 0:09:17the Eggheads have not lost a brain, but early days.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20The next subject is Film & Television.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23Who would like this?
0:09:23 > 0:09:25You did go very quiet then.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Erm...yeah, that's one we haven't really thought about.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Jamie, did you want to...
0:09:30 > 0:09:31- Jamie.- Me?
0:09:33 > 0:09:36- Jamie?- I will take it on, please.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38- OK.- Who shall I go against?
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Erm...
0:09:40 > 0:09:41Choices.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43I will take Judith on, please.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45All right, Film & Television.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48- You'll be happy about that? - Erm...we'll wait and see.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51OK, Jamie from The Pelicans versus Judith from the Eggheads,
0:09:51 > 0:09:52please go to the question room now.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57So, Jamie, we had Beth, a classicist, on Food & Drink,
0:09:57 > 0:10:01- and now you're a medical student doing film.- Yeah.
0:10:01 > 0:10:05- The plan's working.- It's A plan, but... We'll see if it works.
0:10:05 > 0:10:10- But do you watch, TV or do you watch movies or what you do?- Mainly TV.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Not so big on the movies, so hopefully we can afford that.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14So we are Film & Television,
0:10:14 > 0:10:18and Jamie, all the best to you. First or second set of questions?
0:10:18 > 0:10:21I'll go... I'll go second, please.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28Judith, who starred as Oscar Diggs in the 2013 film
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Oz: The Great And Powerful?
0:10:35 > 0:10:39I really don't know.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Bradley Cooper.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Is she right, Jamie?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Erm, I think that's the one which is kind of like
0:10:45 > 0:10:47an Alice In Wonderland-esque
0:10:47 > 0:10:51remake of Wizard Of Oz, which is James Franco.
0:10:51 > 0:10:55- Yeah, James Franco it is. There we go.- Should have gone first.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59- Oh, no, it's been very useful making you go first.- We'll see.
0:10:59 > 0:11:06Jamie, which classic 1970s series starring Gordon Jackson and Jean Marsh was updated in 2010
0:11:06 > 0:11:09with Keeley Hawes and Ed Stoppard in the cast?
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Erm... Yeah, with the actors' names
0:11:18 > 0:11:21I'm pretty sure that's Upstairs, Downstairs.
0:11:21 > 0:11:26It very much is, well done. OK, so you're in the lead now.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Let's treasure this moment.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32Judith, which 1987 film won nine Oscars
0:11:32 > 0:11:36despite having no nominations in any of the acting categories?
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Erm... Let me think.
0:11:45 > 0:11:50I would have thought Amadeus would have had some acting nominations.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53I'm trying to sort of go for a film that was all technical,
0:11:53 > 0:11:59because the Oscars must have been sort of for camerawork and so on.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02The Last Emperor's probably very decorative.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07But it was foreign, wasn't it?
0:12:09 > 0:12:10I'm going to say Platoon.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- Any Eggheads know? - BARRY: Last Emperor, I think.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18- Last Emperor is the answer.- Oh. How annoying.- It is, yeah.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20For you, I mean!
0:12:22 > 0:12:26- So, all you have to do, Jamie, is get this right.- Yeah, that's all..
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Who played April Dancer,
0:12:28 > 0:12:32the main character in the 1960s series The Girl From UNCLE?
0:12:37 > 0:12:41Erm...some of those names ring a bell, but not the series at all.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45So, erm...
0:12:45 > 0:12:49complete guess, I'm going to go for Stefanie Powers.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54The Eggheads are all laughing cos you got it completely right.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57So two out of two. Judith got zero out of two
0:12:57 > 0:13:01so Judith, you won't be in the final round. I'm so sorry.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03Jamie, you will be. Great news for your team.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Please, both of you, come back to us.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11So, The Pelicans have lost one brain from the final round
0:13:11 > 0:13:12but the Eggheads have lost a brain too.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15The next subject for you is Music.
0:13:16 > 0:13:17- Now...- Melissa?
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Melissa. OK.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22I'll take Barry.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26Melissa from The Pelicans versus Barry from the Eggheads on Music.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Melissa, Music. First or second set of questions?
0:13:34 > 0:13:36Can I go first, please?
0:13:39 > 0:13:43Here we go, then. In March 2009, a large glittery shoe
0:13:43 > 0:13:48was placed outside the Palace Theatre in London to promote which musical?
0:13:53 > 0:13:59OK, well, Spamalot is based on the Monty Python sketches
0:13:59 > 0:14:02so...pretty sure there are no glittery shoes in that.
0:14:02 > 0:14:06Again, The Lion King - slight absence of clothes in those
0:14:06 > 0:14:08because they're all animals, so
0:14:08 > 0:14:12I think Priscilla is about drag queens, so that would probably
0:14:12 > 0:14:15fit the best, so I'll go with Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert.
0:14:15 > 0:14:20Priscilla, Queen of the Desert is absolutely right, well done.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24Barry, who released the 2009 album Tongue n' Cheek,
0:14:24 > 0:14:27which featured the UK number one singles Holiday and Bonkers?
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Goodness me... Don't think it was Noel Gallagher.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38I really don't know the answer to this one,
0:14:38 > 0:14:43but 2009 sounds around the time Matt Cardle was going, so Matt Cardle.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46- Melissa, is he right? - No, it's Dizzee Rascal.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Dizzee Rascal! OK.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51Melissa, your question.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53You're in the lead, you don't even need this to take the lead.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57Get this right, you put him under serious pressure and Barry can crack.
0:14:57 > 0:15:01Which singer arrived at the 2011 Grammy Awards
0:15:01 > 0:15:03concealed in a giant egg?
0:15:07 > 0:15:09It was Lady Gaga.
0:15:09 > 0:15:13Lady Gaga is quite right. Flying there.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Barry, to stay in -
0:15:15 > 0:15:21who started presenting a weekly jazz show on Radio 2 in April 2010?
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Well, the only name of those three
0:15:28 > 0:15:32that I associate with jazz is Jamie Cullum, so I'm hoping it was him.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35It is indeed. Works down the corridor from me.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Situation is, Melissa,
0:15:37 > 0:15:40if you get this right you've knocked him out.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42"See the mice in their million hordes,
0:15:42 > 0:15:45"from Ibiza to the Norfolk broads"
0:15:45 > 0:15:47is a line from which David Bowie song?
0:15:53 > 0:15:56OK, I don't think it's Changes.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Erm...
0:15:58 > 0:16:02I'm going to go for Life On Mars?
0:16:02 > 0:16:05- Let's see if your team-mates know. She right?- Yes, she is, yeah.
0:16:05 > 0:16:06Anyone sing it here? Go on.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08# See the mice in their million hordes
0:16:08 > 0:16:10# From Ibiza to the Norfolk broads... #
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Sorry, I added a bit of a like, drum and bass beat to the end there.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18- I'm sorry, Jeremy.- But you got it completely. Life on Mars? is right.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20So Melissa, well done, you've knocked Barry out.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Barry, you won't be in the final round,
0:16:22 > 0:16:26Melissa will be. Good news for our challenging team of Pelicans.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Please come back to us and we'll play on.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32So as it stands The Pelicans have lost one brain from the final round,
0:16:32 > 0:16:35the Eggheads have now lost two.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37So this is going a bit better, isn't it?
0:16:37 > 0:16:39The next subject is History.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41The one we were worried about.
0:16:41 > 0:16:46- Right, yeah. I will take that. - Aled? OK.- Let's do it.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48Which Egghead would you like? It can be
0:16:48 > 0:16:50at my end here, Chris or Daphne?
0:16:50 > 0:16:54- Can I have Daphne, please, Jeremy? - You certainly can.- Thank you very much, that's very kind.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Aled from The Pelicans versus Daphne from the Eggheads.
0:16:57 > 0:17:01Smiling sweetly but don't be deceived. She's known as the smiling assassin.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05To ensure there's no conferring, take your positions in the question room.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10- Aled, History - are we ready for this?- About, yeah.
0:17:10 > 0:17:11I'm liking the jumper.
0:17:11 > 0:17:17Thank you. I thought I'd add a bit of a festive tone to proceedings.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20It's a big student thing, in January everyone comes back
0:17:20 > 0:17:22from Christmas with their Christmas jumper.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26Exactly. And they're quite thick, so you can turn the heating down
0:17:26 > 0:17:30and save money then, so you can spend more on...other stuff.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Yes, I know what the other stuff is, don't worry.
0:17:32 > 0:17:36- You were a student once too, Jeremy. - Exactly so.
0:17:36 > 0:17:40- So, would you like to go first or second?- Can I go first, please?
0:17:43 > 0:17:45First, and here we go.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48Who founded the order of the Missionaries of Charity?
0:17:53 > 0:17:57OK. So, Marie Curie obviously a bit of a scientist.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00She might have done a bit of charity in her spare time, but I'm not sure.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04Again, I'd move away from Sylvia Pankhurst.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06I'm going to go for Mother Teresa
0:18:06 > 0:18:09due to, you know, everyone knows about her charitable works.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12- Mother Teresa is quite right. Well done.- Thank you.
0:18:12 > 0:18:13OK.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Daphne, in the United States in the 1960s,
0:18:16 > 0:18:21Joseph Valachi became the first member of which secretive organisation
0:18:21 > 0:18:23to publicly describe its workings?
0:18:29 > 0:18:35Well, he sounds like he ought to be in the Mafia. So Mafia.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Mafia is correct.
0:18:39 > 0:18:44- Because of the Italian name, I guess.- Yes. Yes.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46Aled, in which country did Henry Ford
0:18:46 > 0:18:50build the now abandoned jungle city of Fordlandia
0:18:50 > 0:18:55in an attempt to create one of the largest rubber plantations on the planet?
0:18:59 > 0:19:07OK, so rubber... I'm going to move away from Thailand and Mozambique,
0:19:07 > 0:19:10and I'm going to go for Brazil.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13Good thought. Brazil is right. Well done.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15Playing well, isn't he, Daphne?
0:19:15 > 0:19:18- Yes!- His team are playing well, they're in the lead at the moment.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20See if you can hang on in there.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Daphne, what relation was Louis XVIII,
0:19:23 > 0:19:26restored to the throne of France in 1814,
0:19:26 > 0:19:29to Louis XVI, executed in 1793?
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Crumbs!
0:19:36 > 0:19:37Erm...
0:19:41 > 0:19:45I ought to know this, but I don't.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47Erm...
0:19:49 > 0:19:52Brother?
0:19:52 > 0:19:53Brother is correct.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57OK, Aled, I'm sorry Daphne's playing well,
0:19:57 > 0:20:00but Daphne always plays well. That's the truth of it.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03Ferocious Miss Marple you're up against.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07In 1870, what was the destination of the maiden voyage of the Cutty Sark?
0:20:12 > 0:20:18OK. So... 1870, America did exist then, so it could be San Francisco.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23I'm thinking the Cutty Sark had something to do with tea.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25I'm not sure whether that's correct.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27So I'm going to go for
0:20:27 > 0:20:30the British colony of Singapore.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32Anyone help us here?
0:20:32 > 0:20:34- CHRIS: Shanghai. - Shanghai is the answer.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36- Not tea?- No, to load tea.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38- Yeah. It was tea but it was Shanghai.- It was tea.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40- Sorry, Aled.- No worries.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42OK, your question, Daphne.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44If you get this you're in the final round.
0:20:44 > 0:20:49Which 12th-century saint was known for the Prophecy of the Popes
0:20:49 > 0:20:54in which he supposedly had a vision describing the next 112 Popes?
0:20:59 > 0:21:01I don't know. Erm...
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Saying...
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Cosmas.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11- No.- Malachy?
0:21:11 > 0:21:13- I can't give you a second go at it. - No.
0:21:13 > 0:21:19- Malachy is the right answer, yeah. - I knew it wasn't Bernard.
0:21:19 > 0:21:20But that doesn't help.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24So, Daphne, we are level after three questions, so Aled,
0:21:24 > 0:21:27we go to Sudden Death which means I don't give you alternative answers.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29- Are you ready?- Yes.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32At the Cairo conference of November 1943,
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Churchill, Roosevelt
0:21:34 > 0:21:38and Chiang Kai-shek agreed that which country should be
0:21:38 > 0:21:42stripped of all the territories it had seized since 1914?
0:21:42 > 0:21:47Erm... OK, so seizing territories around that area,
0:21:47 > 0:21:51I'm going to go for Japan.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53- Japan is quite right.- Thank you.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Chris will know about this. Which territories in particular?
0:21:56 > 0:21:58Well, Korea.
0:21:58 > 0:22:03The puppet state of Manchukuo which they set up in Manchuria,
0:22:03 > 0:22:06and... Well, they'd taken over half of China by then.
0:22:06 > 0:22:10Yeah, they generally wanted putting back to stops.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Thank you. Daphne, your question.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14To stay in.
0:22:14 > 0:22:15In 1200,
0:22:15 > 0:22:19Isabella of Angouleme married which King of England?
0:22:21 > 0:22:24She married...
0:22:26 > 0:22:27..King John.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29King John is correct.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31Which means we play on.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35At which battle was William Wallace's force
0:22:35 > 0:22:37defeated by Edward I in 1298?
0:22:37 > 0:22:40OK. Scottish history. I'm Welsh, so I'm regional
0:22:40 > 0:22:44so there might be a bit of Celtic memory. Erm...
0:22:44 > 0:22:48The only battle I can think of is Bannockburn?
0:22:48 > 0:22:50It's not, it's the Battle of Falkirk.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52Near Stirling.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54OK.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Daphne, for the round.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Which famous ruler, who died in 1227,
0:22:59 > 0:23:04chose his third son Ogedei to succeed him after his death?
0:23:07 > 0:23:09Genghis Khan?
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Genghis Khan is quite right,
0:23:12 > 0:23:14so Daphne, you've taken the round.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Aled, sorry. If you come back to us, we'll play on.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20So, this is what we have been playing towards, it is
0:23:20 > 0:23:23time for the final round, which as always is General Knowledge.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed
0:23:25 > 0:23:27to take part in this round.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30So Aled and Beth from The Pelicans and Barry
0:23:30 > 0:23:34and Judith from the Eggheads, would you please now leave the studio.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39- Jamie, Melissa and Saul, you played very well.- Thanks.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42Jamie, the plan held together.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45Well, we kind of deviated, but it's worked out OK.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48You didn't get subjects that were along the lines of what
0:23:48 > 0:23:51you're studying, so you were at a disadvantage slightly.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55- Maybe they'll come up now.- That is true. Very positive thinking.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58So you're playing to win The Pelicans £2,000.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02Daphne, Chris and Pat, you're playing for something that money can't buy -
0:24:02 > 0:24:04the Eggheads' reputation.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07I will ask each team three questions in turn, this time the
0:24:07 > 0:24:10questions are all General Knowledge, and you ARE allowed to confer.
0:24:10 > 0:24:14So Pelicans, the question is, are your three brains better than
0:24:14 > 0:24:15the Eggheads' three?
0:24:15 > 0:24:17And would you like to go first or second?
0:24:17 > 0:24:20I think we'll go first.
0:24:23 > 0:24:28Here we go, Pelicans. The first Red Nose Day in support of the charity Comic Relief
0:24:28 > 0:24:29took place in which decade?
0:24:32 > 0:24:35It was the '80s. Cos it's just celebrated 25 years or something.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38OK. We'll go for the '80s.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40'80s is quite right, well done.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Eggheads -
0:24:43 > 0:24:45what type of building is featured
0:24:45 > 0:24:48on the Walt Disney Pictures logo?
0:24:51 > 0:24:52- Castle.- Yeah, it's a castle.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Depends what you mean by the logo, but the thing
0:24:56 > 0:25:01that comes up on the end credits is the castle from Sleeping Beauty.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03It's a castle, Jeremy.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Castle is the right answer.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08When was the last time you watched one of them, Chris?
0:25:08 > 0:25:11I don't know, donkey's years ago. But I've got this mental image -
0:25:11 > 0:25:13I think it IS the castle from Sleeping Beauty,
0:25:13 > 0:25:15but I think they use it as a logo.
0:25:15 > 0:25:20And I guess it's also the kingdom in Disney World, Disneyland
0:25:20 > 0:25:23- and all that.- Yeah.- OK, so one each.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25They may not get easier.
0:25:25 > 0:25:30Which actor wrote the Hollywood memoir With Nails?
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Any idea?
0:25:39 > 0:25:42- Were any of them in Withnail And I? - I don't know.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45Kenneth Branagh's very Shakespeare-y, I doubt
0:25:45 > 0:25:49- he'd call his autobiography... - I was thinking maybe Ian McShane.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55Richard E Grant... He was in Spice World(!)
0:25:56 > 0:26:01- My inclination would say Ian McShane.- I'd go for Ian McShane.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04We'll go for Ian McShane. We don't really know.
0:26:04 > 0:26:05Ian McShane is your answer.
0:26:05 > 0:26:10- Did somebody say With Nails as in Withnail...?- Yeah.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13Did that take you to any of them?
0:26:13 > 0:26:16- No.- We don't know who was in it.- OK.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18Cos that was probably '80s, wasn't it?
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Before our time.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22That was Richard E Grant,
0:26:22 > 0:26:25and obviously his memoir title is based on the film,
0:26:25 > 0:26:28so Richard E Grant was the answer. Sorry, guys.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Eggheads, to take the lead.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34Which US state is nicknamed the Pine Tree State?
0:26:38 > 0:26:40- Maine.- Maine...
0:26:40 > 0:26:42Yeah, Florida's...
0:26:42 > 0:26:46- It's not any of the others.- It's not Utah, that's the Mormon State.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48It must be Maine.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Yeah, that's Maine, Jeremy.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53Maine is the right answer. So they're ahead.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55So you need to get this one right.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58Let's get The Pelicans focused on this question. Good luck.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Waikiki Beach is on which island of Hawaii?
0:27:07 > 0:27:10- Anyone been to Hawaii? - Oh, I know this...
0:27:10 > 0:27:13It's not the first one. I think it's one of the other two.
0:27:13 > 0:27:14I think...
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Maui's quite big.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19I think it's Maui.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21The last two have been down the centre...
0:27:21 > 0:27:23- Let's go Maui.- Maui?
0:27:23 > 0:27:26We are going to go for Maui, I think.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Do you know?
0:27:28 > 0:27:31- It's near Honolulu, on Oahu. - Honolulu.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33Is Oahu the biggest one?
0:27:33 > 0:27:35No, second biggest island.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38- OK.- Most populated. - I'm afraid they're right.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42Oahu is the right answer, so we say congratulations,
0:27:42 > 0:27:43Eggheads, you have won.
0:27:49 > 0:27:50- That was painful.- Yeah.
0:27:50 > 0:27:54Cos you fought more strongly than some of the teams we've seen
0:27:54 > 0:27:58recently, and to get three on three is not easy. Is it?
0:27:58 > 0:28:01You've done great, and it's great to see all the team here as well.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04Commiserations to The Pelicans, the Eggheads have done what
0:28:04 > 0:28:08comes naturally to them, and they still reign supreme over quiz land.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10It does mean you won't be going home with the £2,000,
0:28:10 > 0:28:13so the money rolls over to the next show.
0:28:13 > 0:28:17Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:17 > 0:28:21Join us next time to see if a new team of Challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads -
0:28:21 > 0:28:25£3,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye.
