These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:04 | 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 | 0:00:14 | |
The question is... | 0:00:17 | 0:00:18 | |
can they be beaten? | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challenges | 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 | 0:00:33 | |
And taking on our legendary quiz champions today are | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
The Havana Club, Carlisle. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
And this team of friends are regular | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
quizzers at two of their local pubs, | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
The Boardroom and The Beehive. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
Let's meet them. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
Hi, I'm Al, I'm 27 and I'm a bartender. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
Hi, I'm Chloe, I'm 26 and I'm a bartender. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
Hi, I'm Tom, I'm 28 and I'm a care worker. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
Hi, I'm Max, I'm 27 and I'm a business strategist. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
Hi, I'm Tom, I'm 27 and I'm a musician. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
So, welcome, Al. Welcome, team. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
-Thank you Jeremy. -Hello. -Good to see you. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
So, obviously crucial activities go on in these two pubs. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
Crucial, if you mean... consumption of alcohol, | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
and desperately trying to beat one other team which continues... | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
Victory continues to elude us, I would say. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
But you love your quizzing. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:20 | |
We do love quizzing. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:21 | |
If the quiz isn't on, we'll be hitting the boxes | 0:01:21 | 0:01:24 | |
in there trying to make some money from them as well. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
And are you into music together? | 0:01:26 | 0:01:28 | |
Where does the name Havana Club come from? | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
Basically, Chloe works in a bar called Circle | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
erm, that we all used to drink at, | 0:01:34 | 0:01:35 | |
and we all got into drinking a particular rum. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
We just kind of bonded around this certain rum | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
and rum-based drinks, really. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
We'll drink cocktails or just, you know, a nice rum and Coke. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
So, it's a quizzing club with a disciplined approach to drinking? | 0:01:45 | 0:01:50 | |
-Yes. -TEAM: -Ha-ha. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
Responsible, cos we are responsible. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:53 | |
Responsible, very important to say. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
All right, well, good luck. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:56 | |
This is an interesting team to have on today and | 0:01:56 | 0:01:58 | |
there's £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our Challengers every day. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize-money | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
rolls over to the next show, of course. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
So, Havana Club, the Eggheads have won the last five games | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
which means £6,000 says you can't beat them today. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
Would you like to try? | 0:02:13 | 0:02:14 | |
-Yes, please. -Absolutely. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:15 | |
-We should serve drinks at this point but... -TEAM: -Ha-ha. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Film and Television. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
Who would like this? | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
Is that automatically me? | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
Er, it's me or you really, so... | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
Your decision, Captain. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
-You want to take this one? -I'll take it, I'll take the first one. -OK. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
Al, on Film and TV against which Egghead? | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
Anyone there you can have. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
-Don't think... -Judith. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:39 | |
Good, you've obviously watched the programme | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
and you decided this is the subject to take. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
And also, I quite want to beat the millionaire, as well. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
Big fan of that show when I was younger. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:49 | |
-People do say that. -You're not going to get my million. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
Ha-ha. Oh, is that the deal? If he wins, he gets your million? | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
I thought he perhaps might have an idea. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
So, it's Al from the Havana Club versus Judith from the Eggheads. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
And her million is not on the table. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
To ensure there's no conferring, would you please | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
take your positions in the Question Room. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
So, Film and Television, Al. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
And would you like to go with the first or second set of questions? | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
I'll take first, please. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:15 | |
Here we go. Good luck. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:20 | |
What is the name of the character played by Jenna-Louise Coleman | 0:03:20 | 0:03:24 | |
in the Doctor Who episode called The Snowmen? | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
Right, well, Doctor Who | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
unfortunately has never been | 0:03:32 | 0:03:33 | |
one of my favourite things. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
I think too much hiding behind | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
the sofa when I was younger. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
Um, Rose does ring a bell, | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
though, don't think played | 0:03:42 | 0:03:43 | |
by that character. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
By that actress, rather. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:46 | |
I'm just going to... I'm going to have to take a guess, | 0:03:47 | 0:03:50 | |
go straight down the middle and go with Clara. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:52 | |
-Clara's right. Well done. -Whoo. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
Well done, Al. Judith, your question. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:58 | |
In the children's television programme Bagpuss, what colour | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
are the stripes in Bagpuss's fur? | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
Oh, for goodness sake. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:04 | |
Oh, I don't think I've | 0:04:07 | 0:04:08 | |
ever watched Bagpuss. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
But something in my head says orange and black. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:13 | |
It's pink and white. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:16 | |
-No! -It couldn't be less orange and black. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
-Ha-ha-ha. -Have you had your TV set checked recently? | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
I told you, I had never watched it. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
Sometimes, if you just bang the top of the set, | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
the colours go right. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:26 | |
Well, if you watch it, you might... One might see. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:30 | |
Pink and white. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:31 | |
OK, Al, your chance to take the lead here. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
We can crack out the rum. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
Ha-ha, most definitely. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:39 | |
Season Of The Witch | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
was the subtitle of the third film in which horror movie franchise? | 0:04:41 | 0:04:45 | |
It's not Saw, cos they were just numbers. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
And, they were terrible. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:54 | |
Er, Halloween had a few revamps. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
I think... | 0:04:58 | 0:04:59 | |
..it's A Nightmare On Elm Street. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
Eggheads, is he right? | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
It's Halloween. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:07 | |
Halloween is the right answer, Al. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:08 | |
Got it wrong. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
Judith, your question. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
Which actor played the Reverend Mervyn Noote | 0:05:13 | 0:05:15 | |
in the 1960s and 1970s ecclesiastical sitcom, | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
All Gas And Gaiters? | 0:05:19 | 0:05:21 | |
I know that Derek Nimmo was in a kind of thing with a reverend in it. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:29 | |
So, I think it might be Derek Nimmo. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:33 | |
It was indeed Derek Nimmo. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
It's right. So, she's caught up, Al. That's annoying, isn't it? | 0:05:36 | 0:05:38 | |
Rather, ha-ha-ha. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:40 | |
Here's your question. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:41 | |
In the 1976 film Robin And Marian, | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
who played Maid Marian to Sean Connery's Robin Hood? | 0:05:44 | 0:05:47 | |
Little bit before my time. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
My Robin Hood was... Ha-ha-ha. ..Kevin Costner. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
I think I would have preferred Sean Connery. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:03 | |
I don't think it would have been Audrey Hepburn | 0:06:03 | 0:06:07 | |
or Elizabeth Taylor. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
I think they may be a little bit too glamorous, potentially, for that. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:13 | |
I'm going to go with Julie Christie. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:16 | |
That's wrong. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:19 | |
Audrey Hepburn is the right answer, Al. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:21 | |
So, Judith has a chance to take the round on film and television. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:26 | |
Which actress in the early part of her career | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
starred as Lady Jane Grey | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
in a feature film released in 1986? | 0:06:30 | 0:06:33 | |
Lady Jane Grey...? | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
Pfff. Well, Tilda Swinton's got a very Tudor-like face. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
I just think because she's vaguely... | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
She's sort of Tudor-looking, I think I'm going to say Tilda Swinton. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:53 | |
Be easier to make up as a Tudor lady. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:57 | |
Tudor Tilda, they called her. | 0:06:57 | 0:06:58 | |
-Tudor Tilda Swinton, yeah. -Yeah, except they didn't. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
It was Helena Bonham Carter. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
Oh, who doesn't look a bit Tudor, does she? | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
So, you're equal after three questions. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:07 | |
We go to Sudden Death. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:08 | |
And that means it gets a bit harder, Al, | 0:07:08 | 0:07:10 | |
cos I don't give you alternatives. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:13 | |
No problem. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:14 | |
In which James Bond film does Claudine Auger | 0:07:14 | 0:07:18 | |
play Domino? | 0:07:18 | 0:07:19 | |
Right, there's a couple. I've got a couple of options. I'm thinking... | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
..it's For Your Eyes Only. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
Cos he sucks the poison out of her foot in that one. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:32 | |
Or is it... No, that's Thunderball. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:34 | |
Oh, er, right. I'll go. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
It's Thunderball. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:41 | |
You've done it. Thunderball it is! | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
Yes! | 0:07:44 | 0:07:45 | |
Very good indeed, OK. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:49 | |
You love your Bond films, I can tell. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:50 | |
Yeah, bit of a fan, ha-ha-ha. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:52 | |
Even then, it's not easy. OK, Judith, to stay in. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:56 | |
The 2012 film No, which stars Gael Garcia Bernal, | 0:07:56 | 0:08:02 | |
is set in which South American country? | 0:08:02 | 0:08:04 | |
No... | 0:08:04 | 0:08:05 | |
Brazil - it's big. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:14 | |
The answer is no. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
It's not Brazil. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:18 | |
It's Chile. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:20 | |
-Chile. -Yeah. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:21 | |
So, Al, well done, you've done it. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
-You're through to the final! -Fantastic. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
-Knocked out an Egghead on Sudden Death which is not easy to do. -Oof! | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
And if you both come back to us, we'll play on. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:32 | |
So, as it stands, Havana Club have not lost | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
a brain from the final round, whilst the Eggheads have lost one. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:39 | |
The next subject is Arts and Books. Who would like this? | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
Yeah. Shall we just throw Max under the... | 0:08:45 | 0:08:49 | |
-..decent ones... -But there might be a good one, I mean... | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
There might be a worse subject, like politics. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:55 | |
-Right, OK, so, do you want to...? -Tom? | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
Me then? | 0:08:58 | 0:08:59 | |
Think that means me then, Jeremy. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
Against which Egghead? | 0:09:01 | 0:09:02 | |
What do you think? | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
Who do you want to take on? | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
Might have to be tremendous knowledge Dave. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:10 | |
-Yeah? -Yes. -You want to take on TKD? | 0:09:10 | 0:09:11 | |
I'll take TKD. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
OK. All right. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:14 | |
Tom from Havana Club versus | 0:09:14 | 0:09:15 | |
Tremendous Knowledge Dave from the Eggheads. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
And to ensure there's no conferring, please go to the Question Room. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
Arts and Books is the subject in hand. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
And, Tom, would you like to go first or second? | 0:09:23 | 0:09:25 | |
I'll go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
Here we go, good luck. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:31 | |
Which one of these children's novels was first published in book form | 0:09:31 | 0:09:34 | |
in 1911? | 0:09:34 | 0:09:36 | |
Right. Well, I'm going to discount Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, | 0:09:43 | 0:09:47 | |
I think that probably came a bit later. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:49 | |
The Secret Garden... | 0:09:49 | 0:09:51 | |
seems to me like it might be around the right time period. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:55 | |
So, on that basis, I'll go for The Secret Garden. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:59 | |
Very well done, Tom. You're right. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:00 | |
The Secret Garden it is. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
Dave, the Pit And The Pendulum is a horror story by which writer? | 0:10:04 | 0:10:07 | |
It's Edgar Allan Poe. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:14 | |
Yes, it is Edgar Allan Poe. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:17 | |
OK. Your question, Tom. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
What type of table appears in the centre of Vincent Van Gogh's | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
1888 painting The Night Cafe? | 0:10:24 | 0:10:26 | |
Right, I think table tennis | 0:10:31 | 0:10:33 | |
might be... | 0:10:33 | 0:10:35 | |
a bit unusual for that particular | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
time period. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:38 | |
It's certainly not billiards. I'm going to have to go for card table. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
It's a big yellow room and in the middle of it is actually a | 0:10:44 | 0:10:48 | |
billiard table. | 0:10:48 | 0:10:50 | |
Oh. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:52 | |
Sorry, Tom. Billiard table. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
Should have known it. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:55 | |
OK, Dave. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:56 | |
In Shakespeare's play All's Well That Ends Well, | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
Bertram is a Count of where? | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 | |
Go Berry. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:08 | |
-Rossillion. -Yep. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
-Is the answer. -Yep. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:11 | |
So you're level after two questions. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
Tom, back to you. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:14 | |
For what do the letters 'RR' stand in the name of the writer | 0:11:14 | 0:11:17 | |
George RR Martin, | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
who created the series of fantasy books called A Song Of Ice And Fire? | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
Right, well, I'm familiar with the books, obviously, | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
based on their recent success as a TV adaptation. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:36 | |
I've seen the man in question on TV. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:40 | |
It's just a question of what these initials stand for. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |
I don't actually know. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:45 | |
I will go for... | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
..Raymond Richard. | 0:11:52 | 0:11:53 | |
Raymond Richard is correct. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:54 | |
OK, Dave. | 0:11:57 | 0:11:59 | |
What type of artefact is the medieval Luck Of Edenhall, | 0:11:59 | 0:12:04 | |
now kept in the Victoria and Albert Museum? | 0:12:04 | 0:12:07 | |
Don't know, I'm going to go for chair. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
Chair is the wrong answer. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
-It's glass, Dave. -Right, well done. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
Yes, you've been knocked out. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:19 | |
Well, this is very interesting gaming. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:21 | |
We've had a lot of interesting games recently and this is another one. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
Tom, well done, you've taken the round. You're in the final. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
-Incredible. -You don't have to do any more. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
Just celebrate. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:32 | |
So, if you both come back to us and rejoin your teams, we'll play on. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
Interesting stuff. So, Havana Club have still not lost a brain | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
from the final round | 0:12:40 | 0:12:41 | |
and they've knocked out two Eggheads. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:43 | |
Now, the next subject for you is Sport. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
-Yes! -Tom B, first choice. | 0:12:47 | 0:12:48 | |
Tom against... | 0:12:49 | 0:12:52 | |
Kevin or Pat or Daphne? | 0:12:52 | 0:12:54 | |
I'll go with Kevin. Yeah, why not? | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
All right, that's said with a lot of grit and determination. | 0:12:56 | 0:13:00 | |
Tom from Havana Club versus Kevin from the Eggheads. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
Just to ensure there's no conferring, | 0:13:02 | 0:13:04 | |
please take your positions. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:05 | |
Tom, I wonder whether you've been chosen for Sport | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
because of your obsession with cricket. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:10 | |
Well, yeah, bit of an obsession with cricket. Yeah, I play for a team. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:14 | |
Bizarrely enough, I play for the hospital team in Carlisle | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
cos my dad used to work there and just | 0:13:17 | 0:13:20 | |
so happened that they needed players one year and me and my brothers | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
went found and played for them and I've played for them ever since. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:26 | |
And you went to Australia to watch The Ashes being lifted by England? | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
Yes, I did. 2000...I think it was 2011 | 0:13:29 | 0:13:33 | |
and, erm, it was the New Year Test, | 0:13:33 | 0:13:36 | |
so it was over the New Year and... | 0:13:36 | 0:13:38 | |
Really hot, but it was really good and | 0:13:38 | 0:13:40 | |
just on the last day, we went and it was all English fans, pretty much. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:44 | |
No Australian fans cos we'd won it before the last day. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:48 | |
Erm... | 0:13:48 | 0:13:49 | |
-And it was just a crowd of English fans in Sydney. -Wonderful. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:52 | |
All right, well, good luck in this round. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:54 | |
-I hope you can generate as much excitement. -Hopefully. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
Would you like to go with the first second set of questions, Tom? | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
I think I'll go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:01 | |
Here we go. The British racing driver Johnny Herbert | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
made his Formula One debut in which year? | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
Looking at this, I believe he drove a lot in the early '90s, mid '90s, | 0:14:15 | 0:14:19 | |
so, I'm counting out '99 and 2009 as too late. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:24 | |
So, I'd have to say 1989. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:27 | |
Yes, you're right. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:28 | |
1989 it is. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:29 | |
Kevin, in February 2011, Alex Corbisiero | 0:14:31 | 0:14:35 | |
made his full England senior debut in which sport? | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
I believe he's a rugby union player. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:43 | |
So, rugby union. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:45 | |
Rugby union is correct. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:46 | |
Back to you, Tom. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:49 | |
What relation is the England cricketer Nick Compton | 0:14:49 | 0:14:52 | |
to the esteemed Denis Compton? | 0:14:52 | 0:14:54 | |
Pff, erm... | 0:14:59 | 0:15:01 | |
I'd have thought... | 0:15:01 | 0:15:02 | |
Thinking about the generation, he's probably a bit too... | 0:15:02 | 0:15:07 | |
too young to be his son. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:08 | |
But a grandson and great-grandson... | 0:15:08 | 0:15:11 | |
Think I'm going to have to go down the middle and go with grandson. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
And grandson is the right answer. So, well done, Tom. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:16 | |
Kevin, your question to catch up. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
Louise Hazel | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
won a gold medal at the 2010 Commonwealth games | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
in which athletics event? | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
I think she's British. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
That wasn't mentioned in the question at all, was it? Just gave her name. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:36 | |
-Yes. -I think she's British. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:38 | |
I've got an idea she might be a heptathlete. So, heptathlon. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:43 | |
That's very good, actually, because yes, she is. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:47 | |
She was obscured, somewhat, by Jessica Ennis. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:50 | |
In fact, she came 27th in the London Olympics, in the heptathlon. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:55 | |
But she did very well two years earlier. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:58 | |
So, heptathlon is correct. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:01 | |
Third question. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:02 | |
Tom, never make easy work of Kevin. That's the trouble, isn't it? | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
-You just can't... -It's difficult, it's difficult. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:08 | |
-He won't go quietly. -No. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:10 | |
In September 2001, | 0:16:10 | 0:16:11 | |
England beat Germany 5-1 in a memorable football match, | 0:16:11 | 0:16:15 | |
comprising a hat-trick from Michael Owen | 0:16:15 | 0:16:17 | |
and one each from Steven Gerrard and which other player? | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
I've got a feeling it's one of his only goals scored for England. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:28 | |
He was a striker, he didn't score many - and I remember this game. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
And I'm pretty sure - If I'm wrong, I'm sorry - | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
but I'm pretty sure it was Emile Heskey who scored the other goal. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
It was indeed Emile Heskey. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
Well done. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:40 | |
Goodness, and you would've been 15 or something, then. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:44 | |
It was 2001. I was...16, 16. | 0:16:44 | 0:16:48 | |
Good memory, well done. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:49 | |
OK, Kevin, if you get this wrong, you're out. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
Roller hockey was a demonstration sport at which summer Olympic Games? | 0:16:51 | 0:16:56 | |
I think... | 0:17:05 | 0:17:06 | |
It's very big in Spain. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:10 | |
I think this is Barcelona. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:15 | |
Barcelona, '92. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
Yeah, you've got it right. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:19 | |
It is indeed Barcelona, 92. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
Very well played. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:22 | |
So after three questions each, we are locked in position again. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:27 | |
Six strong answers from you both. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:30 | |
We go to Sudden Death, Tom. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:33 | |
I don't give you alternative answers. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:35 | |
Which Australian prop | 0:17:35 | 0:17:37 | |
scored the only try in the 1991 rugby union World Cup Final? | 0:17:37 | 0:17:42 | |
I can't really think of anything at this moment in time, erm, | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
Australian props... | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
Just a stab in the dark. David George, I don't know. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:52 | |
Well, the Aussies won and Tony Daly was the answer. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:57 | |
Tony Daly. | 0:17:57 | 0:17:59 | |
Kevin, your question. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
Which cricketer took 431 test match wickets for New Zealand | 0:18:01 | 0:18:06 | |
between 1973 and 1990? | 0:18:06 | 0:18:08 | |
And got knighted as well. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:11 | |
It's Richard Hadlee. Sir Richard Hadlee. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:14 | |
Yeah, Richard Hadlee is the right answer. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:16 | |
Kevin has taken the round. He's so hard to beat. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
-You've made a very good fist of it, Tom... -Oh, well. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:21 | |
..but it wasn't quite enough. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:23 | |
So, you've been knocked out. So maybe the tide is turning for | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
the Eggheads, here. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
Please, both of you come back here and we'll play on. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:29 | |
So, as it stands Havana Club have lost one brain | 0:18:31 | 0:18:33 | |
from the final round now. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:34 | |
The Eggheads have still lost those two brains. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:36 | |
The next subject is history. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:38 | |
THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
-Max? -Max... | 0:18:42 | 0:18:43 | |
I don't think he wants to do it but... | 0:18:45 | 0:18:47 | |
No, I'll do this one. It's one of my worst subjects. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:50 | |
Which Egghead, Max? | 0:18:50 | 0:18:52 | |
Do you want to take on Daphne or Pat? | 0:18:52 | 0:18:54 | |
-Who do you want to take on, Max? -I'll take on Daphne, actually. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
Yeah, you just want to play Daphne? | 0:18:57 | 0:18:58 | |
Yeah, I've got a bit of a thing for Daphne, so... | 0:18:58 | 0:19:00 | |
So many people say that. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:02 | |
Max from the Havana Club versus Daphne from the Eggheads. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:05 | |
Please go to the Question Room now. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
History, Max. Would you like to go first or second? | 0:19:08 | 0:19:12 | |
I'll let Daphne go first, I guess. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:14 | |
Your first question. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:20 | |
The illustrator James Montgomery Flagg | 0:19:20 | 0:19:22 | |
is best known for a World War I recruitment poster | 0:19:22 | 0:19:26 | |
in which he appeared in the guise of which American character? | 0:19:26 | 0:19:30 | |
Oh, that's Uncle Sam. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
Uncle Sam is quite right. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:39 | |
Back to Max. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:42 | |
Which figure from French history is believed to have been | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
born around the year 1412 in the village of Domremy? | 0:19:45 | 0:19:49 | |
Yeah... | 0:19:56 | 0:19:58 | |
Hmm, unsurprisingly, I don't really know this one. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
I'll do a Daphne, I'll go with Joan of Arc. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
B. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:08 | |
Going down the middle. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
Joan of Arc is the right answer. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
Daphne, who became British prime minister in 1935? | 0:20:15 | 0:20:18 | |
That was... | 0:20:23 | 0:20:25 | |
Stanley Baldwin. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
He had to deal with the application crisis. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:30 | |
Stanley Baldwin is quite right. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:32 | |
OK, Max. If you can keep up with dear old Daphne on her skates. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:39 | |
The coronation of Queen Elizabeth II took place on which | 0:20:39 | 0:20:43 | |
day of the week? | 0:20:43 | 0:20:44 | |
Sunday. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:50 | |
Again, I'm not really sure but I'll go with Sunday. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:54 | |
Daphne, do you remember? | 0:20:54 | 0:20:55 | |
I know it wasn't a Sunday cos I had a day off school. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:59 | |
Um... | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
Thursday? | 0:21:01 | 0:21:02 | |
No, it was Tuesday actually. Tuesday is the answer. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:05 | |
Max, you've fallen behind and if Daphne gets this right, | 0:21:05 | 0:21:07 | |
she's in the final round. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:09 | |
In the treaty signed in London in 1867, | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
the major European powers agreed to grant which part | 0:21:12 | 0:21:17 | |
of the continent perpetual neutrality? | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
Oh, well I haven't heard of it, but I assume it's Switzerland. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:32 | |
-No, it's not actually. -Oh, dear. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:34 | |
Anyone know this here? | 0:21:34 | 0:21:36 | |
-If it's not Switzerland I think it must be... -Luxembourg! | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
Go on, tell us, Eggheads. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
I was going to say, it must be Andorra. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:42 | |
Cos Luxembourg was certainly invaded and occupied by the Germans. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:47 | |
Kevin says it's Andorra, Daphne. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:48 | |
-Oh, is it? -This is great. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
It's obviously a fantastic question. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
-It's completely... -Luxembourg. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:53 | |
Well, I am now. I mean, I think I'm going to tell you, it's Luxembourg. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
Yes, I realised that afterwards. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:59 | |
OK. Interesting. Didn't think you were going to slip up there, | 0:22:01 | 0:22:03 | |
you don't normally. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:04 | |
So, Max, this is good for you. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:06 | |
Yeah, I need to get this right. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:07 | |
Get this one right and you go into Sudden Death with Daphne. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:10 | |
Here we go. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:11 | |
About whom did Winston Churchill say, | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
in relation to the Russian people, | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
"Their worst misfortune was his birth, | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
"their next worst, his death"? | 0:22:19 | 0:22:21 | |
I think that was Stalin. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
Again, an unconscious thing. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
But...seems about the right kind of time. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
Yeah, I'll go for that. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:36 | |
-Which country were you born in, Max? -Russia, yeah, | 0:22:36 | 0:22:38 | |
but I'm bad at history in general so... | 0:22:38 | 0:22:42 | |
-I spent too much time doing philosophy pretty much. -OK. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
I wish I could tell you | 0:22:45 | 0:22:46 | |
you got this answer right | 0:22:46 | 0:22:48 | |
-cos it was right on your doorstep. -Yeah. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
It's not Stalin. It's Lenin. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:53 | |
Ha-ha. Yeah, that was plan B. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:55 | |
But, yeah. | 0:22:55 | 0:22:56 | |
Sorry, Lenin is the answer. | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
So you've been knocked out by Daphne. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
-I have. -Daphne will be in the final. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:02 | |
Please, both of you return to us and we will play that final round. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:06 | |
So, this is what we have been playing towards. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:09 | |
It is time for the final round which, as always, | 0:23:09 | 0:23:11 | |
is general knowledge. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:13 | |
But I'm afraid, those of you who lost your head-to-heads | 0:23:13 | 0:23:15 | |
won't be allowed to take part in this round. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:17 | |
So, Tom B and Max from The Havana club, Elsa, Judith and Dave | 0:23:17 | 0:23:22 | |
from the Eggheads, would you please now leave the studio? | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
So, Al, Chloe and Tom L, you are playing to win Havana club £6,000. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:33 | |
Pat, Kevin and Daphne, | 0:23:33 | 0:23:34 | |
you're playing for something that money can't buy - | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:38 | |
As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:41 | |
This time, the questions are all general knowledge. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:44 | |
You are allowed to confer. | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
So, Havana club, the question is, | 0:23:46 | 0:23:47 | |
are your three brains able to rout | 0:23:47 | 0:23:50 | |
the Eggheads three? Over here. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
Would you like to go first or second? | 0:23:52 | 0:23:53 | |
Think we're going to go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:56 | |
Here we go, good luck. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:01 | |
Which of these words means to be associated or spend time | 0:24:01 | 0:24:04 | |
with someone socially? | 0:24:04 | 0:24:06 | |
-It's hobnob. -Hobnob. -Hobnob. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:12 | |
It's hobnob, Jeremy. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:14 | |
Hobnob is correct. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:15 | |
Eggheads, the name of which flower derives from the fact | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
that it is one of the first to appear in the spring? | 0:24:20 | 0:24:23 | |
-Primrose is prime-rose. -Yeah. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:29 | |
Yeah, I think that sounds fine. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:32 | |
We're going for Primrose, Jeremy. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
Daphne is completely right, Primrose is correct. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
Well done. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
Back to you, Havana. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
Who duetted with Shakin' Stevens on the 1984 UK top 10 single | 0:24:41 | 0:24:45 | |
A Rockin' Good Way? | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
-Anybody know this? -No. -I've no idea. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
-You? -I don't know either. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:56 | |
I'm vaguely familiar. | 0:24:56 | 0:24:58 | |
I've got a little niggling, kind of, something going on. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:02 | |
Shakin' Stevens...? It's not... | 0:25:02 | 0:25:04 | |
-'84. So '84. Bonnie Tyler's a... -Bonnie Tyler's a good bet but | 0:25:04 | 0:25:08 | |
-I'm just trying to... -You reckon? | 0:25:08 | 0:25:10 | |
Musical style-wise? | 0:25:10 | 0:25:12 | |
I can't really recall any of these people well enough. | 0:25:13 | 0:25:16 | |
Carol Decker's one that's... For some reason that's the first one | 0:25:16 | 0:25:19 | |
that I thought, but I don't know. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:21 | |
I wish I could remember what | 0:25:23 | 0:25:24 | |
a Shakin' Stevens record sounds like. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
It sounds like that Christmas one. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:27 | |
-Oh, that one? -Yeah, ha-ha. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
Um, we really don't know so, we're just going to have | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
-to pick something. -Right, so... | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
You say Carol Decker? | 0:25:34 | 0:25:35 | |
I think... I think Bonnie Tyler. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:39 | |
I don't know why. | 0:25:39 | 0:25:40 | |
-Maybe on that basis we should go for Sheena Easton? -Yeah? -Yeah. | 0:25:42 | 0:25:45 | |
We'll go for Sheena Easton then, please. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:48 | |
OK. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:49 | |
-Eggs? -I think it's Bonnie Tyler. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:52 | |
Bonnie Tyler! | 0:25:52 | 0:25:53 | |
-Oh. You made me doubt myself. -You made me doubt. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:55 | |
Eggheads, at Cambridge University what name is given to those | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
undergraduates who received financial help from the college? | 0:25:59 | 0:26:04 | |
Hmm, sizars. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:10 | |
I think, cos they're sort of... | 0:26:10 | 0:26:11 | |
-Have you ever heard the term comptars? -No. | 0:26:11 | 0:26:15 | |
I've heard of sizars. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:16 | |
-And bursars... -And bursar would be somebody who actually | 0:26:16 | 0:26:19 | |
-dispensed the money, you would think. -Sizars. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:21 | |
Yeah, sizars sounds fine. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:23 | |
We're going to go with sizars. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:25 | |
And sizars is correct. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:27 | |
So they've taken the lead. | 0:26:27 | 0:26:29 | |
You must get this third question. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:30 | |
I hate to put the pressure on. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
I don't want it to slip out of your hands without you realising. | 0:26:32 | 0:26:35 | |
This is your third question. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
The Royal National Lifeboat Institution has its | 0:26:37 | 0:26:40 | |
headquarters in which town? | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
-Wow. -RNLI. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:50 | |
-RNLI. -Can anybody give me any geography in terms of... | 0:26:50 | 0:26:53 | |
-Penzance is... -Cornwall. -I know where Penzance is, it's the other two. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:56 | |
-Poole. -Poole's in Devon, isn't it? | 0:26:56 | 0:26:58 | |
-No, it's... -Dorset? -..Dorset. | 0:26:58 | 0:27:00 | |
-Well, its West Country. -..Dorset, West Country. | 0:27:00 | 0:27:02 | |
So, the... I don't know about Paignton. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
-Where's Paignton? -I'm not sure. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:07 | |
I... Something's drawing me to Penzance. I'm not sure why. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:11 | |
-I don't think it's Penzance but I'm not really... -Cornwall... | 0:27:11 | 0:27:14 | |
I've been to Cornwall, I don't remember it. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:15 | |
I'm trying to remember, they did the whole Blue Peter thing | 0:27:15 | 0:27:18 | |
on collecting money for lifeboats. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:22 | |
Right, well, it's all or nothing really anyway, so... | 0:27:22 | 0:27:24 | |
If we don't know, then... | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
can maybe plump for Paignton. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:29 | |
We tried that last time, remember? | 0:27:29 | 0:27:31 | |
Didn't work. | 0:27:31 | 0:27:32 | |
We'll go with Penzance. Gut feeling. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:36 | |
Yeah, we'll go for Penzance, please, Jeremy. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |
Penzance is your answer. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:42 | |
And if you've got it wrong, the contest is over. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:45 | |
Cos of your earlier wrong answer. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:47 | |
I can see why you went for Penzance, it's got the sea air. | 0:27:47 | 0:27:50 | |
Definitely need the odd lifeboat down there. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:53 | |
But the RNLI has its headquarters in Poole. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:57 | |
-Ah. -So, we have to say congratulations, Eggheads, | 0:27:57 | 0:27:59 | |
you have won! | 0:27:59 | 0:28:01 | |
Commiserations, cos the launch of this team into the game was amazing. | 0:28:07 | 0:28:12 | |
The skittles were going down left, right and centre. | 0:28:12 | 0:28:14 | |
But commiserations in the end to you, Havana club contenders. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:18 | |
The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them, | 0:28:18 | 0:28:20 | |
and their winning streak continues. | 0:28:20 | 0:28:22 | |
It does mean you won't be going home with the £6,000, | 0:28:22 | 0:28:25 | |
so the money rolls over to our next show. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:28 | |
Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you? | 0:28:28 | 0:28:31 | |
Join us next time to see if a new team of Challengers | 0:28:31 | 0:28:34 | |
have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:36 | |
£7,000 says they don't. | 0:28:36 | 0:28:38 | |
Till then, goodbye. | 0:28:38 | 0:28:40 |
