These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
Together they make up the Eggheads, | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
The question is, 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 awesome quiz champions today are... | 0:00:33 | 0:00:37 | |
This team of friends all volunteer for Hospital Radio Bedside, | 0:00:38 | 0:00:42 | |
an organisation whose programmes transmit | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
to five hospitals in the East Dorset area. Let's meet them. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:49 | |
Hi, I'm Kev. I am 49 and I am an IT Service Manager. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
Hi, I'm Karen. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:54 | |
I'm 59 and I'm a School Careers Assistant. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
Hi, I'm Steve. I'm 46 and a Financial Planner. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:01 | |
Hi, I'm Mary. I'm 70 and I'm a retired nurse. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:05 | |
Hi, I'm Amelia. I'm 19 and I'm a freelance writer. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
-So Kev and team, welcome. -ALL: Hi. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
-Good to see fellow radio broadcasters. -Indeed. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
And so Hospital Radio Bedside is based in one place | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
-but you go out to five. Is that right? -Yes. We're based at the | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
Royal Bournemouth Hospital and we broadcast to all five hospitals in | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
-the region plus online on the Internet. -OK. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
-You play records and have interviews and do all that stuff? -Indeed. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
Yes, we try and get as much variety as we can. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
We have records, we have CDs, we have 20 odd thousand | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
tracks on the wall, on the Internet system. Can't be bad. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:37 | |
How about quizzing? Has there been any quizzing done together? | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
We have a quiz every year that's organised by Alan Dedicoat, | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
-our esteemed president. -My colleague. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
That's the extent of our quizzing together, | 0:01:47 | 0:01:50 | |
but we all go to quizzes and things like that separately. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
And do you think that hospital radio is still as appreciated | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
-now in hospitals? -Absolutely, by the patients. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
If we can get through to one patient and make their stay a bit easier | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
then it's appreciated, absolutely. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
Tremendous. What was it they used to say? | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
If you want to get into radio it's the place to start. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
-It's a fantastic place to learn. -Indeed. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
-Well, good luck in this contest. -Thank you. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
for our Challengers, however if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
the prize-money rolls over to the next show. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
So, Bedside Brigade, the Eggheads have won the last nine games | 0:02:23 | 0:02:28 | |
which means £10,000 says you can't beat them today. How's that? | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
THEY MURMUR | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
They've helped you by going on a bit of a run. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
-Would you like to start? -Why not? | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Science. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
-Who would like this? -Science. -Science. -So unfair! | 0:02:40 | 0:02:46 | |
-Go on, Mary. -All right. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
This was thrust on me suddenly at the last minute. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
-So you've become the scientist? -Yes. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
Which Egghead would you like to take on then, Mary? | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
I think I'd like to take on... | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
-Pat, please. -OK. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
Pat from the Egghead versus Mary from the Bedside Brigade on Science. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:08 | |
And to ensure there is no conferring, | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
please take your positions in the Question Room. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
So what do you do on the radio station, Mary? | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
Well, I am head of on-air interviews | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
and I also co-present a children's programme called I-Kids | 0:03:19 | 0:03:23 | |
which is great fun and that's for the patients, obviously, | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
-but we do have children who come in and help us as well. -Good luck. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:32 | |
-Thank you so much. -Would you like to go first or second? | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
Please, could I go first? | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
Here we go with your first question. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
Which of these elements has the lowest atomic number? | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
Well, I believe these are called the noble gases or | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
they used to be called the noble gases. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
Erm, and I have a feeling that argon is the heaviest. | 0:03:55 | 0:04:00 | |
So I will go with argon. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:04 | |
I am following your logic there but Pat, | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
does that take you away from the highest, lowest number? | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
Argon is a noble gas but hydrogen and nitrogen aren't. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:17 | |
The lowest atomic number is to some extent directly related to the mass | 0:04:17 | 0:04:21 | |
-of the atom. -Right. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
But funny enough, you had half the information there, Mary. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
-You got it wrong. It's hydrogen. -Right, thank you. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
The numbers, you can tell us, Pat. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:33 | |
-Hydrogen is... -One. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:34 | |
Nitrogen is seven... | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
-Argon... -Argon is about 18 or 20, somewhere around there. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
18, yeah. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:43 | |
Bad luck, Mary. Pat, your question. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
Equus asinus is the Latin name for which animal? | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
Asinus is redolent of ass. It could be donkey. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:57 | |
A camel isn't particularly closely related to the horse or horses. | 0:04:57 | 0:05:02 | |
The zebra is but I do not think it is called equus. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:06 | |
Asinus... | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
I think that must be donkey. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
Donkey is correct. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
OK, Mary, the raccoon-like Coati is | 0:05:13 | 0:05:17 | |
an omnivorous mammal native to which part of the world? | 0:05:17 | 0:05:22 | |
Just to help you, I'm spelling C-O-A-T-I. Coati. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:26 | |
Right. A raccoon. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:32 | |
I have a feeling... | 0:05:34 | 0:05:35 | |
..that raccoons... | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
are possibly the Americas. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
Erm... | 0:05:43 | 0:05:45 | |
No, actually, I think it's Australasia. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
Well, as in Asia. Erm... Oh, dear! | 0:05:50 | 0:05:55 | |
No, I'm going to go for Africa after all that! I'm sorry. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:01 | |
Let's see if your team know. Coati? | 0:06:01 | 0:06:03 | |
We think it's the Americas. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
-They flinched when you moved off the Americas. -Oh, dear. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:10 | |
-The Americas is the right answer. -Thank you. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:12 | |
Not to worry. Pat, get this right you'll be in the final round. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
Which of these scientists was born first? | 0:06:15 | 0:06:17 | |
I have to be careful here. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
I am pretty sure Copernicus preceded Galileo. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
Galileo was 1564 he was born. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
And I think Copernicus had already caused | 0:06:35 | 0:06:38 | |
a bit of a stir... | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
before Galileo. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
But he did not push it and he sort of got away with that. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:44 | |
Galileo was a bit more public and ended up in the soup. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
I think the sequence is Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
So, I'll say... sorry, can I have the question again, please? | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
Which of these scientists was born first? | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
I will go with Copernicus, please. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
You're right about the sequence because Galilei, 1564, | 0:06:57 | 0:07:01 | |
and then Kepler. Who knows... let's test you, Eggheads, | 0:07:01 | 0:07:05 | |
-Kepler's birth year? -1580. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:08 | |
Nearly, Barry. 1571. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:10 | |
So Copernicus, Nicolaus Copernicus is the right answer. Well done, | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
you've got two right. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:15 | |
-There's no way back for you Mary. Not to worry. -Thank you. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:19 | |
Thank you for playing. You won't be in the final and Pat will. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
Please, both of you, rejoin your teams. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
So as it stands, the Bedside Brigade have lost one | 0:07:26 | 0:07:29 | |
brain from the final round, the Eggheads have not lost one yet. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:32 | |
The next subject is Sport. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |
Prepared for this? | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
-You are doing it! -Really? -Yeah. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
-That'll be me, then, Jeremy. -Steve. OK, against which Egghead? | 0:07:39 | 0:07:44 | |
I am going to take on Chris, please, Jeremy. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
OK, a sigh of relief from Judith over there. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:51 | |
I think we could hear it. I felt my hair blown back by it, Judith! | 0:07:51 | 0:07:55 | |
So, Steve from the Bedside Brigade versus Chris who won't be | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
-any happier. -No, but you remember what happened last time. -I remember. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:02 | |
We won't even mention the way the studio had to be repaired | 0:08:02 | 0:08:06 | |
after your celebrations. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
To ensure there is no conferring, please go to the Question Room. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:11 | |
Steve, would you like to go with the first or second set of questions? | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
I'll go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:17 | |
Here we go. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:23 | |
The 'Cheltenham roar' is a term used to describe | 0:08:23 | 0:08:25 | |
the atmosphere at an event in which sport? | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
Well, I'm not aware of any Formula 1 events at Cheltenham or snooker, | 0:08:31 | 0:08:35 | |
but there certainly is horse racing so that is my answer. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
Horse racing. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:38 | |
Horse racing is correct. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
Chris, your question. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
Which position is most associated with the footballer | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
Danny Wellbeck who made his senior England debut in 2011? | 0:08:46 | 0:08:50 | |
I think I'd know if he was a goalkeeper. I don't think he is. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:58 | |
Erm, what have we got more of? | 0:08:58 | 0:09:00 | |
There's more defenders than there are strikers | 0:09:00 | 0:09:03 | |
-so I will go with defender, down the middle. -Steve, do you know this one? | 0:09:03 | 0:09:06 | |
He's a striker for Manchester United. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:08 | |
Striker. It's lucky for you | 0:09:08 | 0:09:10 | |
Tremendous Knowledge Dave is not here. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:12 | |
Did he have a ballot before he went on strike? | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
JEREMY LAUGHS | 0:09:14 | 0:09:16 | |
-It is a wildcat strike, I think. -Oh, right. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
Second question, Steve. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
Joe Root has represented England in which sport? | 0:09:20 | 0:09:23 | |
He's not rugby league or hockey. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:30 | |
He's just recently established himself in the England | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
cricket team. Cricket is the answer. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
Cricket is the answer, well done. So, you are ahead. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
So, if you get this one wrong, Chris, it is curtains. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
You're off on your express train. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:43 | |
Which of these tennis players won the most Men's Singles | 0:09:43 | 0:09:46 | |
titles at Wimbledon? | 0:09:46 | 0:09:47 | |
Erm... | 0:09:51 | 0:09:52 | |
HE MURMURS | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
He was around for the longest time as I remember, | 0:09:56 | 0:09:59 | |
so it's got to be Boris Becker. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:01 | |
-Boris Becker is quite right. Do you know how many? -Huh, as if I would! | 0:10:01 | 0:10:05 | |
-Judith? -I think it is three, isn't it? -Yes, three. And Pat Cash, one. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:11 | |
-Yep. Stefan Edberg, two. -Edberg, two. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
Steve... which British sportsman won a gold medal in the | 0:10:15 | 0:10:19 | |
Men's 200m Kayak at the 2012 Olympics? | 0:10:19 | 0:10:23 | |
Get this right you're in the final round, Steve. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
I am sure Nick Skelton is a show-jumper. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:34 | |
I've got a feeling it might have been Ed McKeever, | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
but I am not sure about Anthony Joshua so Ed McKeever. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
You're very good on Sport, aren't you? Ed McKeever is correct. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
You've got the round. And you are in the final. Chris, you've been | 0:10:43 | 0:10:46 | |
knocked out on Sport. You've lost fair and square. You're out of the | 0:10:46 | 0:10:49 | |
final, Steve will be in. Please come back and rejoin your teams. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:53 | |
So, as it stands, the Bedside Brigade have lost one | 0:10:53 | 0:10:56 | |
brain from the final round, but they've pulled a bit back now | 0:10:56 | 0:10:58 | |
because the Eggheads have had a brain knocked out as well. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
The next subject is Geography. Who would like this? | 0:11:01 | 0:11:06 | |
-Now there's a thing. -Is this not a good one? | 0:11:06 | 0:11:09 | |
Well, I was going to do Geography, you see, | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
-and then they threw Science at me at the last minute. -Mary! | 0:11:11 | 0:11:14 | |
-I'd been practising so hard. -How's your Geography? | 0:11:14 | 0:11:18 | |
THEY CONFER | 0:11:18 | 0:11:21 | |
European or America, but... | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
-All right, I'll have a go. -Karen, OK, against? | 0:11:24 | 0:11:28 | |
-Not Chris or Pat. -Judith. Judith, please. Jeremy. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:33 | |
Right, Karen from the Bedside Brigade against Judith | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
from the Eggheads on Geography. How's that? | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
-I haven't done it for ages! -Don't worry. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:39 | |
Have you been anywhere lately? | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
No. I go backwards and forwards to France. I never go anywhere else. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:45 | |
-France and Kensington? -Yes, exactly. -Yeah. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:48 | |
-It's a tough old life, isn't it(?) -It's a mistake? | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
It is rough, having to slum it(!) | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
JEREMY CHUCKLES | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
Please take your positions in the Question Room. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
Geography now and Karen, would you like the first or second set of questions? | 0:12:00 | 0:12:03 | |
First please, Jeremy. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:04 | |
Here we go, Karen, good luck to you. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
What is the official language of Argentina? | 0:12:10 | 0:12:12 | |
Well, it's not English. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
Portuguese, I think is Brazil. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
So I am going to go for Spanish. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
Spanish is the correct answer. Well done. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
Judith, Malibu is an affluent beach | 0:12:30 | 0:12:32 | |
community in which part of the USA? | 0:12:32 | 0:12:34 | |
It's in California, Los Angeles. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
Los Angeles is correct. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:43 | |
Karen, which river rises in southwestern | 0:12:45 | 0:12:47 | |
Tibet before flowing 1800 miles to enter the Arabian Sea? | 0:12:47 | 0:12:52 | |
Erm, I don't think it's the Volga. Or I don't really know why. | 0:12:56 | 0:13:00 | |
Erm, I will go for Indus, but I am not sure. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:05 | |
Indus is the right answer. Well done. Nice one. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:10 | |
Judith... to catch up. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:13 | |
Which of these countries has the largest population? | 0:13:13 | 0:13:15 | |
Well, France has got about the same as us which is | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
roughly 60 something million. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
Oh, Lordy. I am not quite sure. I think I am going to say France. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:28 | |
The 60 something million. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:30 | |
Yeah, you have got it. France is correct. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:34 | |
OK, over to you, Karen. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
The road to Hana, which is spelt H-A-N-A, is a popular tourist | 0:13:36 | 0:13:41 | |
route around the coast of Hawaiian island? | 0:13:41 | 0:13:44 | |
-I don't know, so I am going to go for Oahu. -Anyone know on this side? | 0:13:48 | 0:13:53 | |
-I think it's Maui. -Judith says Maui. You're right, Judith. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:57 | |
Maui is the answer, Karen. | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
So, Judith has a chance to take the round. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:01 | |
The international airport situated near Oracabessa on Jamaica is | 0:14:01 | 0:14:07 | |
named after which British author. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
Well, Ian Fleming famously had a house called Goldeneye. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:18 | |
But actually, Noel Coward also lived there. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
I think it's Ian Fleming because Ian Fleming and Bond and all that. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:25 | |
-Ian Fleming lived on Jamaica, did he? -Yes. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:28 | |
Ian Fleming is correct, Judith. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
Three out of three on Geography, Judith. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
Sorry, Karen. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:36 | |
They are playing rather well today, these Eggheads, and you've | 0:14:36 | 0:14:39 | |
been beaten by yours and you won't be in the final as a result. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:43 | |
Karen and Judith, please, if you can, come back to us. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:46 | |
As it stands The Bedside Brigade have lost two | 0:14:47 | 0:14:50 | |
brains from the final round, whilst the Eggheads have lost one. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:54 | |
The next subject is Film & Television. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:57 | |
-Amelia? -Yep. | 0:14:57 | 0:14:58 | |
Amelia, is it? OK. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
And against which Egghead? | 0:15:01 | 0:15:03 | |
Could be Barry or Daphne. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:06 | |
-I like both of them. -Go Daphne. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:08 | |
I'm going to go Daphne. She's one of my heroes anyway. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:11 | |
She's awesome, so I'm going to say Daphne. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
OK, Bedside Brigade's Amelia is going to play | 0:15:14 | 0:15:16 | |
Daphne from the Eggheads on Film & Television. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
Let's see how you both do. Please, go to the question room. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:23 | |
Amelia, you do writing, I gather. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:25 | |
-I do. I do do writing. -And it's on the entertainment field? | 0:15:25 | 0:15:30 | |
Yep, film and music and a bit of TV. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
-OK. Well, it's handy for this round, I hope, for you. -Hope. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:36 | |
Film & TV against Daphne. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:39 | |
-How are we? -Fine. Fine. -On we go. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:42 | |
Do you want the first or second set of questions, Amelia? | 0:15:42 | 0:15:45 | |
First, please. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:46 | |
Which actor plays the role of Gareth Mallory in the 2012 film Skyfall? | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
Um, great film and I believe... | 0:16:01 | 0:16:04 | |
Ralph Fiennes plays a really important role in it, | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
so I'm going to say him. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:08 | |
Ralph Fiennes is correct. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:10 | |
Well done. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:12 | |
Which boxer finished third in the 2012 series | 0:16:13 | 0:16:17 | |
of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!? | 0:16:17 | 0:16:19 | |
I don't watch those sort of shows, but... | 0:16:25 | 0:16:29 | |
Oh, yes, wasn't it David Haye? | 0:16:29 | 0:16:31 | |
David Haye is correct. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:34 | |
Amelia. Which Oscar did Quentin Tarantino | 0:16:35 | 0:16:38 | |
win for his work on Django Unchained? | 0:16:38 | 0:16:42 | |
I'm a HUGE Tarantino fan, I'm also a huge fan of the Oscars - | 0:16:47 | 0:16:51 | |
I stay up till 4am watching it. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
I don't think he was even nominated for Director, which I was | 0:16:53 | 0:16:57 | |
very sad about, but I do think he deserves to win Original Screenplay. | 0:16:57 | 0:17:02 | |
Original Screenplay is correct. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
Well done. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:07 | |
OK, Daphne. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:09 | |
What is the official title of the fifth entry in the Die Hard | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
series of film, released in February 2013? | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
I haven't seen it, but I've seen it advertised | 0:17:22 | 0:17:27 | |
and it's A Good Day To Die Hard. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:31 | |
It is indeed A Good Day To Die Hard. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:33 | |
You're right. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:34 | |
That's what we always say here, isn't it?! | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
When you get in that question booth. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
So 2-2. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:41 | |
She's a good player, Amelia, isn't she? | 0:17:41 | 0:17:43 | |
-Yes. -Here's your question. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
In February 2013, Timothy West appeared in the short-term | 0:17:45 | 0:17:49 | |
role of Eric Babbage in which TV soap? | 0:17:49 | 0:17:52 | |
Don't think it's EastEnders, so between the other two. | 0:17:56 | 0:18:00 | |
Um... | 0:18:01 | 0:18:03 | |
Babbage - sounds Coronation Street, but my instincts said Emmerdale. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:07 | |
Um... | 0:18:07 | 0:18:08 | |
I'm going to go Coronation Street. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:10 | |
Coronation Street is right. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
Daphne, your question and if you don't get this right, it's curtains. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:19 | |
Which Englishman directed the films Unfaithful, Indecent Proposal | 0:18:19 | 0:18:24 | |
and Lolita? | 0:18:24 | 0:18:25 | |
Crumbs! | 0:18:32 | 0:18:34 | |
I don't know. Um... | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
Adrian Line. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:40 | |
It's pronounced "Lyne", but you're right. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
Adrian Lyne is the right answer. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:45 | |
I'm sorry, Amelia. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:47 | |
We're on Sudden Death now, Amelia. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:50 | |
You've done very well to keep toe-to-toe with her, | 0:18:50 | 0:18:54 | |
but it gets a bit harder cos I don't give you alternative answers. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
OK? | 0:18:57 | 0:18:58 | |
Which cartoon series, first seen in 1968, | 0:18:58 | 0:19:01 | |
was inspired by the comedy film The Great Race? | 0:19:01 | 0:19:04 | |
The Great Race... | 0:19:06 | 0:19:07 | |
The first thing that comes to my head is Wacky Races. | 0:19:08 | 0:19:12 | |
I'm going to say Wacky Races. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:14 | |
Wacky Races is quite right. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:16 | |
Daphne, you're on the brink here. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
-Yes. -She's playing so well. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:23 | |
Which American TV medical drama had the tag line, | 0:19:23 | 0:19:26 | |
"Genius has side effects."? | 0:19:26 | 0:19:28 | |
House. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:32 | |
House is correct. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:33 | |
Who is that great British actor? | 0:19:35 | 0:19:37 | |
Hugh Laurie. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:39 | |
That's right. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:40 | |
Amelia, keep going. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:42 | |
"Yoffy lifts a finger, and a mouse is there," | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
are the first words from a song regularly played on which | 0:19:45 | 0:19:50 | |
children's TV show, presented by Rick Jones and first shown in 1972? | 0:19:50 | 0:19:56 | |
I don't even know who Rick Jones is, to picture it, to be honest. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
Um... | 0:19:59 | 0:20:00 | |
I'm going to say Magpie. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:03 | |
Fingerbobs. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:06 | |
Right, Daphne, over to you. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
Get this right you're in the final. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
Phil Harris provided a voice for which | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |
character in the 1967 Disney film The Jungle Book? | 0:20:13 | 0:20:17 | |
Oh, who was he? | 0:20:20 | 0:20:21 | |
Sorry, Baloo. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:25 | |
No, it's not. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
-Say it again. -Baloo. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
Baloo is correct. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:30 | |
-What?! -Baloo is correct! | 0:20:30 | 0:20:32 | |
I'm so sorry! | 0:20:32 | 0:20:34 | |
I thought you were just going to say anything then. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:36 | |
Yes. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:37 | |
Baloo the bear is the answer. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
Well done. Baloo from The Jungle Book. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:41 | |
Daphne, you're in the final round. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:43 | |
Ah, Amelia, you played really, really well there. | 0:20:43 | 0:20:45 | |
Thanks. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:46 | |
It seems unfair. Daphne's guesswork earlier was extraordinary. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:52 | |
Quite irritating, if we're to be frank! | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
But, please, come back and rejoin your team-mates. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
Well done, Amelia. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
And bad luck. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:02 | |
This is what we've been playing towards, it is | 0:21:02 | 0:21:04 | |
time for the final round, which, as always is General Knowledge. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:07 | |
I'm afraid that those of you who lost your head-to-heads wont | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
be allowed to take part in this round, | 0:21:10 | 0:21:12 | |
so Karen, Mary and Amelia from the Bedside Brigade | 0:21:12 | 0:21:15 | |
and Chris from the Eggheads, would you, please, now leave the studio. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:19 | |
Kev and Steve, you are playing to win the Bedside Brigade £10,000. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:25 | |
Daphne, Barry, Pat and Judith, you're playing for something | 0:21:25 | 0:21:28 | |
that money can't really buy, which is the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn, this time the | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
questions are all General Knowledge and you are allowed to confer. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:39 | |
So, Kev and Steve, the question is, | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four? | 0:21:41 | 0:21:45 | |
Would you like to go first or second? | 0:21:45 | 0:21:47 | |
We'll go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:49 | |
OK, Kev and Steve, good luck. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother was a Christmas number one | 0:21:54 | 0:21:58 | |
single by which group in 2012? | 0:21:58 | 0:22:01 | |
Band Aid was early '80s. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:07 | |
Band Aid was definitely early '80s. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:09 | |
-USA For Africa was also early '80s. -It was, for the same purpose. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
Straight after Band Aid. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:14 | |
Justice Collective was the justice for the 96 last year in Liverpool. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:18 | |
-The Hillsborough... -I say Justice Collective. -Agreed. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
We're going to go for Justice Collective, Jeremy. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
Justice Collective is the right answer. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:25 | |
Eggheads, which of these English monarchs reigned first? | 0:22:25 | 0:22:28 | |
Let me think. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:35 | |
-Henry I. -Henry I. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
Willie, Willie, Harry, Stee... | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
Henry I. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:41 | |
Richard I was the son of Henry II, so it can't be. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:44 | |
Henry I. We all agreed? | 0:22:45 | 0:22:47 | |
Yeah. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:48 | |
Henry I. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
No controversy here, Jeremy. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:52 | |
I thought you'd get this one! | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
Henry I is the right answer! | 0:22:54 | 0:22:56 | |
My goodness, if you'd struggled with that... | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
you don't know your kings and queens. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
That's being an Egghead, the first thing they do is... | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
It's another world. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
I'll never understand it. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:07 | |
Your question, challengers. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:09 | |
In 2013, which political leader was criticised over the amount of money | 0:23:09 | 0:23:13 | |
he'd budgeted for ice cream in his household in the previous year? | 0:23:13 | 0:23:17 | |
It wouldn't be Barack Obama. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:25 | |
No, surely not. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
Not for...2013. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:29 | |
Mm. No. I wouldn't have thought so. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |
Netanyahu would be logical. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:35 | |
-Yes. -Because of where he... | 0:23:35 | 0:23:37 | |
Exactly. Yeah? Go for...? | 0:23:37 | 0:23:39 | |
Let's go for Netanyahu. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:41 | |
We'll go for Benjamin Netanyahu. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
Good answer, you're right - Benjamin Netanyahu. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:47 | |
Well done. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:49 | |
OK. Eggheads, | 0:23:49 | 0:23:51 | |
when Catholic cardinals meet at the Vatican to elect a new pope, | 0:23:51 | 0:23:54 | |
what share of the vote is required to seal | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
victory for a particular candidate? | 0:23:57 | 0:23:59 | |
I thought it was two thirds, | 0:24:03 | 0:24:05 | |
which is 66%. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:06 | |
I thought it was two thirds. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
It used to be just a simple majority | 0:24:09 | 0:24:11 | |
and Pope Benedict XVI reverted to a previous arrangement, | 0:24:11 | 0:24:15 | |
which I think was two thirds. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
-Are we all agreed on two thirds? -Yeah. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
When the Catholic cardinals elect a new pope in the Sistine Chapel | 0:24:19 | 0:24:24 | |
they need a two-thirds majority, which is 66%. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:28 | |
66% is the right answer. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:30 | |
Well done. And then, what is it - blue smoke? White smoke? | 0:24:30 | 0:24:33 | |
-White smoke, yes. -Out comes the white smoke. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:35 | |
-Yes, and then Habemus Papam - we have a pope! -Yeah. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:39 | |
OK, your question. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
Third question can be crucial, just to keep the pressure on those eggs. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:44 | |
And there are only four of them there. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:47 | |
Fleance is a character in which Shakespeare play? | 0:24:47 | 0:24:50 | |
F-L-E-A-N-C-E. Fleance. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
It's not Macbeth. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:01 | |
OK, I'm going to bow to your superior... | 0:25:01 | 0:25:03 | |
I haven't got any knowledge to base this on, | 0:25:03 | 0:25:05 | |
but I don't remember it from Macbeth. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
-Hamlet or King Lear. -Toss of the coin, isn't it now? | 0:25:09 | 0:25:13 | |
-Down the middle? -Why not? | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
We'll go with King Lear, Jeremy. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
King Lear. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:19 | |
Eggheads, do you know this. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:21 | |
-Banquo's son in Macbeth. -Banquo's son - he is in Macbeth. | 0:25:21 | 0:25:24 | |
That means the Eggheads will take | 0:25:26 | 0:25:27 | |
the contest if they get this one right. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
The Oscar-nominated actor Stanley Tucci became | 0:25:30 | 0:25:34 | |
the brother-in-law of which English actress in 2012? | 0:25:34 | 0:25:39 | |
Don't think it was Kate Winslet, she married Ned Rocknroll, | 0:25:44 | 0:25:46 | |
who was Richard Branson's nephew. | 0:25:46 | 0:25:49 | |
He's actually called Abel Smith. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:50 | |
I can't imagine he'd be related to Stanley Tucci. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:53 | |
Who did Emily Blunt...? | 0:25:53 | 0:25:54 | |
Emily Blunt got married last year. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:56 | |
Keira Knightley is marrying someone from a pop group. | 0:25:56 | 0:26:00 | |
-She's not married yet. -No. No. | 0:26:00 | 0:26:02 | |
So, Emily Blunt, who did she marry? | 0:26:02 | 0:26:04 | |
Well, I don't know. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
But don't forget if he's become her brother-in-law, he could have... | 0:26:06 | 0:26:10 | |
He could have married her sister. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:12 | |
Yes. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:13 | |
Or she could have married his brother. | 0:26:13 | 0:26:15 | |
The only two ways it could have happened. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:18 | |
If she'd married his brother... | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
She'd keep her acting name, she wouldn't switch to Tucci. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:26 | |
No. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:28 | |
Who are we talking about? Emily Blunt? | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
Well, any of them. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:32 | |
If they married a Tucci brother, they wouldn't take Tucci as a surname. | 0:26:32 | 0:26:37 | |
No Kate Winslet married Ned Rocknroll. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:42 | |
I don't think Kate Winslet's got a sister. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:45 | |
He's called Abel Smith. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:46 | |
I haven't heard of Keira Knightley... | 0:26:46 | 0:26:49 | |
Keira Knightley's not married yet. | 0:26:49 | 0:26:52 | |
No, but he could have married her sister. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:56 | |
I see what you mean. | 0:26:56 | 0:26:58 | |
Would any of them be called Tucci? | 0:26:58 | 0:27:01 | |
No. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:02 | |
-I'm more inclined to go for Emily Blunt. -Yeah. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
I have a feeling that Emily Blunt was recently married. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:08 | |
-So we go for Emily Blunt. -OK. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:10 | |
-Blame me. -All right. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:11 | |
Well, as you've gathered, we're not really sure on this one, | 0:27:11 | 0:27:14 | |
the only thing we're sure of is it probably isn't Kate Winslet. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:17 | |
We think we will go for Emily Blunt. | 0:27:17 | 0:27:19 | |
If you've got this right, you've taken the contest, | 0:27:19 | 0:27:22 | |
but my goodness, what a struggle at the end there. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:24 | |
Well, the situation is this...OK. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
Two people got married, one of them was called Felicity. | 0:27:29 | 0:27:33 | |
Felicity was the sister of Emily Blunt. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:38 | |
So you have got it right. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:39 | |
The answer's Emily Blunt. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:41 | |
Congratulations, Eggheads, you have won. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:44 | |
It's the worst thing | 0:27:49 | 0:27:50 | |
when they get the right answer from completely duff information. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:53 | |
It's the way it goes. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:54 | |
The sudden appearance of Keira Knightley's sister was compelling. | 0:27:54 | 0:27:58 | |
I'm not even aware she's got one! | 0:27:58 | 0:27:59 | |
That was the point. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:00 | |
This was an incredibly exciting revelation! | 0:28:00 | 0:28:04 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:28:04 | 0:28:07 | |
Anyway, that's how they do it - they do it by hook or by crook. | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
-Absolutely. -By hook, or by guesswork, I should say. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:13 | |
Never by crook! | 0:28:13 | 0:28:14 | |
Commiserations to the Bedside Brigade, | 0:28:14 | 0:28:16 | |
the Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them, | 0:28:16 | 0:28:18 | |
however hard work it may seem, and their winning streak continues. | 0:28:18 | 0:28:21 | |
I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £10,000, | 0:28:21 | 0:28:24 | |
so the money rolls over to our next show. | 0:28:24 | 0:28:27 | |
Eggheads, congratulations. Great to watch you at work today. | 0:28:27 | 0:28:30 | |
Who will beat you, I wonder? | 0:28:30 | 0:28:32 | |
Join us next time to see | 0:28:32 | 0:28:33 | |
if a new team of challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. | 0:28:33 | 0:28:37 | |
£11,000 says they don't. Till then, goodbye. | 0:28:37 | 0:28:40 |
