0:00:04 > 0:00:10These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:12 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 0:00:25Welcome to Eggheads,
0:00:25 > 0:00:29the show where a team of five quiz challengers pit their wits against
0:00:29 > 0:00:34possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain - they are the Eggheads.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38Taking on our quiz champions today are the Rambling Badgers from Leeds.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41This team of friends have taken their name from their shared
0:00:41 > 0:00:44love of rambling, and also from team captain Dave's
0:00:44 > 0:00:46informal term for his friends, badgers.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49I'd hate to know how he refers to his enemies.
0:00:49 > 0:00:50Let's meet them.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54I'm Dave, I'm 37 years old and I'm a production manager.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Leanne. I'm 30 and I'm a legal cashier.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01Hi, I'm Roger. I'm 43 and I'm an art worker.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Hi, I'm Matt. I'm 34 and I'm also an art worker.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Hi, I'm Simon. I'm 38 and I'm a finance manager.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Dave and team, welcome. Good to see you.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15No Barry here, which is a shame, because he is local to you in Leeds.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17He is. Not joined us rambling yet, though.
0:01:17 > 0:01:18Not joined you rambling.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Are these quite serious rambles that you have?
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Some are. It's mainly fun, but from time to time, or once a year,
0:01:24 > 0:01:27we do put together a sponsored walk.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29And do you go a long way?
0:01:29 > 0:01:31We started off in the Yorkshire Dales,
0:01:31 > 0:01:34ventured up to the Lake District, Peak District.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Anywhere with a few hills, basically.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39So badgers, Dave, why call them all badgers?
0:01:42 > 0:01:46I don't know, I just like the phrase. I would say, "Now then, you badger."
0:01:46 > 0:01:49"Ay up, you badger," being a Yorkshire man.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52- So it's a term of endearment. - Absolutely, yeah.
0:01:52 > 0:01:53What about the Eggheads,
0:01:53 > 0:01:56- you wouldn't call them badgers, would you?- Badgers.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Foxes, wolves, something like that? Maybe just Eggheads.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash
0:02:02 > 0:02:05up for grabs for our challengers, however, if they fail to
0:02:05 > 0:02:08defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11Rambling Badgers, the Eggheads have won the last two games,
0:02:11 > 0:02:15which means £3,000 says you can't beat them today.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17- Would you like to try? - Absolutely.
0:02:17 > 0:02:21OK, the first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Arts and Books.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24Who would like this and against which Egghead?
0:02:26 > 0:02:28- Roger?- It's got to be Roger.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Who shall we go against?
0:02:33 > 0:02:35Dave.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Me against Dave, please.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Very good. Roger from the Rambling Badgers
0:02:40 > 0:02:43versus Dave from the Eggheads on Arts and Books.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Just to ensure there's no conferring,
0:02:45 > 0:02:49would you please take your positions in the question room.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51OK, good luck in this round against the man
0:02:51 > 0:02:52we call Tremendous Knowledge Dave.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55It's Arts and Books, Roger, would you like to go first or second?
0:02:55 > 0:02:56I'll go first, please.
0:03:00 > 0:03:04Here we go - the character Sam-I-Am appears in which work by Dr Seuss?
0:03:11 > 0:03:14I know this cos it used to be one of our favourites
0:03:14 > 0:03:16when I read it to my son.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18It's Green Eggs And Ham.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21That's a very good reason to know it. You're absolutely right.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25Green Eggs And Ham. Well done. First point to the challengers.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28OK, here we go.
0:03:28 > 0:03:32Dave, where did Michelangelo paint his famous fresco The Last Judgment?
0:03:39 > 0:03:45The Sagrada Familia is in Barcelona, a brilliant building from Gaudi.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48Louvre, no, I don't think. I'll go Sistine Chapel.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Sistine Chapel is the right answer.
0:03:52 > 0:03:53Roger, over to you.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56At the start of Samuel Beckett's play Waiting For Godot,
0:03:56 > 0:03:59which character is struggling to remove his boot?
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Em...I haven't actually seen this play.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12I'll guess at Estragon.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16- Estragon.- Estragon is correct.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18Well done.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20I knew they were flamboyant names.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24Dave, "Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything"
0:04:24 > 0:04:26is a line from which Shakespeare play?
0:04:32 > 0:04:33I don't know.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37I'm just inclined to go for As You Like It,
0:04:37 > 0:04:41but with no degree, again, of certainty.
0:04:41 > 0:04:42I'll go for As You Like it.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46As You Like It is correct. Two points each. Roger, back to you.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48In the Old English poem The Dream Of The Rood,
0:04:48 > 0:04:52to what does the word Rood refer?
0:04:57 > 0:04:59I'm afraid I'm going to have to go with logic.
0:05:02 > 0:05:09A cross and a church don't dream, so I'm going to do it logically
0:05:09 > 0:05:10and say it's Priest.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12But I'm not aware of that poem.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13No, it's cross. I'm sorry.
0:05:16 > 0:05:17Dave, for the round,
0:05:17 > 0:05:21which American author was born Howard Allen Frances O'Brien?
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Not heard of it.
0:05:28 > 0:05:34Now I thought Anne Tyler and Anne Rice were both female authors.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Could be wrong here. I'm going to go for Anne McCaffrey
0:05:37 > 0:05:39just on that basis.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40I've got the logic here,
0:05:40 > 0:05:42but Daphne's shaking her head, I'm afraid. Daphne.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44- Anne Rice.- Anne Rice is the answer,
0:05:44 > 0:05:46so you're level after three questions.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Roger, we go back to you. It's Sudden Death now, OK?
0:05:48 > 0:05:51I don't give you alternatives.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53The first volume of memoirs by the Nobel-Prize-winning author
0:05:53 > 0:05:58Gunter Grass is known in English as Peeling The what?
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Onion.
0:06:01 > 0:06:02Onion is correct.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Onion is correct, nicely done.
0:06:08 > 0:06:09OK, Dave.
0:06:10 > 0:06:15Di Bondone was the surname of which renaissance artist who died in 1337?
0:06:17 > 0:06:18I should know this.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22I'll go with Tintoretto, but I don't think it's right.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Any Eggheads know?
0:06:25 > 0:06:29- Giotto.- Giotto is the answer. Dave, you've been knocked out.
0:06:29 > 0:06:30Roger, well done.
0:06:30 > 0:06:31Well played.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34First round to our Ramblers here.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36You will be in the final round and Dave won't.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Please, both of you come back and rejoin your teams.
0:06:40 > 0:06:45Well done, Rambling Badgers. What about that?! Cracking start, Roger.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48As it stands, they have not lost any brains,
0:06:48 > 0:06:49the Eggheads have lost a brain.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52The next subject for you is Geography.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Who would like this?
0:06:56 > 0:06:57I'll take that.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00- I think I'll take Geography, please. - OK, against which Egghead?
0:07:00 > 0:07:01Anyone but Dave.
0:07:01 > 0:07:07- What do you think? Speak up.- I think I'll play against Judith, please.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Simon from the Rambling Badgers versus Judith on Geography.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13To ensure there's no conferring, please go to the question room.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17OK, good luck in this round. Geography it is, Simon.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Would you like the first or second set of questions?
0:07:19 > 0:07:21I'd like to go first, please.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Here we go.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29New York's Grand Central Terminal is located in which borough?
0:07:33 > 0:07:36OK, I've never been to New York, unfortunately.
0:07:37 > 0:07:43I don't think it's Staten Island, which leaves Brooklyn or Manhattan.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49I think it's obviously quite a populous place,
0:07:49 > 0:07:51so I think I'll go with Brooklyn.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54It's actually, probably of the three,
0:07:54 > 0:07:57I guess, the most populous, which is Manhattan.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03Judith, which of these countries has the smallest surface area?
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Oh, I can't bear those sort of questions.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12I think it's India.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Yes, you're absolutely right. India is the smallest.
0:08:15 > 0:08:183 million square km.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21All right, Simon, STN is
0:08:21 > 0:08:26the International Air Transport Association code for which airport?
0:08:30 > 0:08:33I'm not sure what the code is for Stornoway whatsoever.
0:08:34 > 0:08:39STN doesn't register with Stansted for me, so I'll go with Southampton.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41It's Stansted, Simon.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45So if Judith gets this one right, she's taken the round.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48What is the official currency of the Philippines?
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Well, the Philippines were associated with America
0:08:57 > 0:08:59at one point.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03I would think they may have called their currency the dollar.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05The Philippine dollar.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09No, there's been various noises on the Eggheads' desk
0:09:09 > 0:09:11of pain and mild agony.
0:09:11 > 0:09:12Oh, peso then.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15- The Philippine peso is the right answer.- Yeah.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Simon, a chance for you to come back,
0:09:16 > 0:09:18but you have to get this one right.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20El Salvador shares borders with Guatemala
0:09:20 > 0:09:23and which other Central American country?
0:09:28 > 0:09:32Based on, I think, in the late '60s or early '70s,
0:09:32 > 0:09:36they had a brief war, or certainly a tete-a-tete
0:09:36 > 0:09:39with one of their neighbouring countries.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41I believe it was Honduras.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43Bang on, well done. Honduras it was.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47Judith, if you get this right you're in the final.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49If not, we go to Sudden Death.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52In polar regions, what name is given to an area of rock that
0:09:52 > 0:09:55emerges above ice sheets and glaciers.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03Well, drumlins are... You have drumlins in Scotland, don't you?
0:10:04 > 0:10:07I'm not quite sure what a drumlin is in Scotland, but I'm just wondering
0:10:07 > 0:10:11if it would be translated to the Arctic, if that's what it meant.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Cirque, circus.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14Nuna...nuna... Nunatak.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18I think I'm going to risk drumlin.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22OK, it's nunatak.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25You got it wrong and therefore we go to Sudden Death.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Simon, on Geography.
0:10:27 > 0:10:28I start with you, it gets a bit harder,
0:10:28 > 0:10:30I don't give you alternatives.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34The ski resorts of Verbier and Saas-Fee
0:10:34 > 0:10:37are in which European country?
0:10:37 > 0:10:40I think I will go for Switzerland.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Switzerland is the correct answer.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Have you broken the deadlock? Let's see.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Judith, you need to get this right.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51After severe flooding in 1957,
0:10:51 > 0:10:55a major public works programme re-routed the River Turia
0:10:55 > 0:11:01so that it runs around rather than through which Spanish city?
0:11:01 > 0:11:02I've no idea.
0:11:05 > 0:11:06Madrid.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09The answer is Valencia.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12Judith, you've been knocked out, well done, Simon.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15You are in the final round, you badger.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20The Badgers are rambling. Very good news for our challengers.
0:11:20 > 0:11:24Please, both of you, rejoin your teams and we'll play on.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27So, as it stands, the Rambling Badgers are doing really well.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29They've not lost a brain from the final round.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31The Eggheads have lost two. What's going to happen next?
0:11:31 > 0:11:36Film and TV is the next subject. Who's this?
0:11:36 > 0:11:41- It's got to be. Got to be Leanne. - Right, against who?
0:11:41 > 0:11:45I don't mind doing it against Kevin. He's not very good at it.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47You decide, you're playing.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50I'll go with Kevin then. Yeah, I'll try Kevin.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Leanne from the Rambling Badgers versus Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Please go to our question room now.
0:11:57 > 0:11:58So Film and TV, Leanne.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00Would you like to go first or second?
0:12:00 > 0:12:02I'll go first, please.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Good luck.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11In February 2013, who hosted the ceremony for the Academy Awards?
0:12:16 > 0:12:19I'll rule Tina Fey out completely.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23I think Ricky Gervais hosted it the year before.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28I'm going with Seth MacFarlane, please.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Seth MacFarlane is the right answer.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Kevin, which sports star won the 2013 series
0:12:35 > 0:12:37of the TV show Dancing On Ice?
0:12:42 > 0:12:46Not something I actually watched.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48My immediate inclination was Beth Tweddle,
0:12:48 > 0:12:49but I'm a little bit...
0:12:52 > 0:12:54No, I'll stick with Beth Tweddle.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56- Is he right?- Yes.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Yes, Beth Tweddle is the right answer, well done.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Back to you, Leanne.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03Which of these films did Steven Spielberg direct first?
0:13:11 > 0:13:16Well, although I picked Film and TV, film isn't really my strong point.
0:13:16 > 0:13:21The film that first came into my head when you asked the question
0:13:21 > 0:13:25was ET - Extra Terrestrial, so I'm going to go with that.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Let's see if the Eggheads know. Dave, do you know?
0:13:27 > 0:13:32- Close Encounters of the Third Kind. - Yeah, Close Encounters was 1977.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36Then it went to Raiders of the Lost Ark and then it went to ET.
0:13:36 > 0:13:37ET was '82.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Kevin has a chance to take the lead.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Which character is played by Jeremy Renner in the 2011 film
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol?
0:13:51 > 0:13:52I have actually seen it.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56It's not Ethan Hunt, because that's the Tom Cruise character.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58I think Luther Stickell is probably the character
0:13:58 > 0:14:00played by Ving Rhames,
0:14:00 > 0:14:03so I think for Renner I'd have to go for William Brandt.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07William Brandt is the right answer. Well done.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09OK, Leanne, your question.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Try and get this right, cos you need it to stay in, OK?
0:14:12 > 0:14:16What is the colour of the chair in which at the end of an edition
0:14:16 > 0:14:20of the Graham Norton Show members of the audience are invited to sit
0:14:20 > 0:14:23and tell their most entertaining story?
0:14:25 > 0:14:29Em, again, I don't watch it.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32My first inclination was pink.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Obviously because that's not come out, I'm going to go with red
0:14:35 > 0:14:37because it's the nearest colour.
0:14:38 > 0:14:39Red is correct.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44OK, Kevin's question for the round, then.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47Who wrote the films The Queen, The Last King Of Scotland
0:14:47 > 0:14:49and The Damned United?
0:14:53 > 0:14:55Yeah, he's been quite prolific in recent years,
0:14:55 > 0:14:57and quite successful too. It's Peter Morgan.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Peter Morgan is the right answer.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02You've taken the round with three correct questions. Sorry, Leanne.
0:15:02 > 0:15:06But you know what he's like, our Kevin. Not bad, is he?
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- No, he's very good. Knows his stuff. - Well played, though.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Do, both of you, please return to us now.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15As it stands, the Rambling Badgers have lost one
0:15:15 > 0:15:18brain from the final round, whilst the Eggheads have lost two brains.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Playing really well.
0:15:20 > 0:15:25The next subject is History. Which badger would like this?
0:15:25 > 0:15:26I'd better, then.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Yeah?
0:15:28 > 0:15:30- Shall I do it?- Yeah, do it.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Matt against which Egghead?
0:15:33 > 0:15:35I'll take Pat, please.
0:15:35 > 0:15:36Matt from the Rambling Badgers
0:15:36 > 0:15:39against our rather stationary badger Pat.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42On History, let's see how you both do.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Please go to the question room.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47OK, so Matt, History.
0:15:47 > 0:15:48Would you like to go first or second
0:15:48 > 0:15:51against this very, very fine Egghead?
0:15:51 > 0:15:52I'll go first, please.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59Matt, Queen Victoria reached the milestone of 25 years
0:15:59 > 0:16:01as monarch on June 20th in which year?
0:16:09 > 0:16:12I'm not sure. She was one of the longest-reigning monarchs.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17I would have to say 1862.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Very good. 1862 is correct.
0:16:23 > 0:16:28Pat, the island of Borneo was occupied by which invading army
0:16:28 > 0:16:30between 1942 and 1945?
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Considering its location...
0:16:37 > 0:16:38..it's unlikely it was the Russians.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41They had many other things to keep them busy.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44During World War II,
0:16:44 > 0:16:48it was the Japanese who made the big push down into Southeast Asia...
0:16:50 > 0:16:53..so it must have been the Japanese who occupied it.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55Japanese is the right answer.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Your question, Matt.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02In World War II, "Who me?" was the nickname of an American chemical
0:17:02 > 0:17:05designed to offend which sense of enemy soldiers?
0:17:08 > 0:17:14I'm not entirely sure of the answer.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17But going on the name, I would suggest...
0:17:21 > 0:17:25..possibly...hearing.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28Hearing. The answer is smell.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32I guess it was like a military stink bomb.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37Pat, for how many years was Louis XV King of France?
0:17:42 > 0:17:49Louis XIV was in the top job for 72 years,
0:17:49 > 0:17:53which is the record for a French king.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57That was from somewhere in the 1600s to somewhere in the 1700s.
0:17:58 > 0:18:03Louis XVI meets a sticky end at the guillotine,
0:18:03 > 0:18:04so Louis XV is in the middle.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09I'm dismissing 79.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11I don't think he got to within three years of Louis XIV,
0:18:11 > 0:18:16so I think we'll give him a surely more than ample 59 years.
0:18:16 > 0:18:21He was king between 1715 and 1774, so you're right - 59 years.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23It is, you got there.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27He's in the lead. That means, Matt, you need this one.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29Which Roman Emperor was the adopted son of Hadrian?
0:18:34 > 0:18:35Again...
0:18:37 > 0:18:38..I'm not too sure.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44Something is drawing me towards Valerian.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Yeah, I'm going to say Valerian.
0:18:48 > 0:18:53Antoninus Pius is the answer. That means Pat's taken the round.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55The Eggheads fighting back a little bit
0:18:55 > 0:18:57after your very strong start, Badgers.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Sorry, Matt, you've been knocked out
0:18:59 > 0:19:00and you'll not be in the final round.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03If you both come back to us, we will play that final.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05This is what we've been playing towards.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08It's time for the final round which, as always, is general knowledge.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:19:11 > 0:19:13won't be allowed to take part in this round,
0:19:13 > 0:19:17so Leanne and Matt from Rambling Badgers,
0:19:17 > 0:19:18and also Judith and Dave from the Eggheads,
0:19:18 > 0:19:21would you please now leave the studio?
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Dave, Roger and Simon,
0:19:24 > 0:19:27you're playing to win the Rambling Badger's £3,000.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Pat, Kevin and Daphne, you're playing for something that
0:19:29 > 0:19:33money can't buy - the Eggheads' precious reputation.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38This time the questions are all general knowledge
0:19:38 > 0:19:40and you are allowed to confer.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44Rambling Badgers, the question is can your three brains
0:19:44 > 0:19:47overcome the Eggheads' three brains over here?
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Would you like to go first or second?
0:19:49 > 0:19:50- First.- First, please.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56Here we go.
0:19:56 > 0:20:01For what does the letter A usually stand in the abbreviation AQI,
0:20:01 > 0:20:04referring to a manner of speech in which intonation rises
0:20:04 > 0:20:06towards the end of the utterance?
0:20:11 > 0:20:13Australian seems a bit obvious.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Why do you think Australian, or are you not thinking Australian?
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Australians are famous for that, aren't they?
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Well, they do talk, they do go up at the end.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Whereas Appalachian is actually about that.
0:20:28 > 0:20:29It's an area.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36It's going to be a guess, isn't it?
0:20:36 > 0:20:39If we're going to guess, we know the Australians do...
0:20:42 > 0:20:45- Yeah, I'll go with that. - I don't know. I'm just guessing.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47It's a guess.
0:20:49 > 0:20:54Simply for the fact that's a lot of Australians do have sentences
0:20:54 > 0:20:57that go up at the end, we're going to choose Australian, please.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Australian is correct.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03What does it stand for, anyone know?
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Australian Question Intonation.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Yes, it does. I can never recreate it, but instead of saying...
0:21:08 > 0:21:10- MONOTONE:- "We went to the park today." It's...
0:21:10 > 0:21:12- TONE RISES:- "We went to the park today."
0:21:12 > 0:21:14- It's like that, isn't it? - Yes, that's it.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Every sentence is a thing of wonder.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Yeah, exactly.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21- It drives me crazy. Does it drive you crazy?- Yeah.
0:21:21 > 0:21:22A little bit, yeah.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24Eggheads, let's see if you can get this question...
0:21:24 > 0:21:26- TONE RISES:- ..right.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29In which position did the footballer Paul Gascoigne usually play?
0:21:34 > 0:21:36- He was a midfielder. - He was a midfielder.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Yeah, he wasn't a goalkeeper or defender anyway, so midfielder.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42He was a midfielder.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45He was, of course, a midfielder. Well done.
0:21:45 > 0:21:46Back to you, Badgers.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Of these men,
0:21:48 > 0:21:51which was the Prime Minister of the UK for the longest time?
0:21:55 > 0:21:58It wasn't Gordon Brown, was it? He had a very short...
0:22:00 > 0:22:03I don't think it was Edward Heath. Didn't he do one term?
0:22:03 > 0:22:06Was it he who was ousted by Thatcher, was that Edward Heath?
0:22:08 > 0:22:10Yeah, could be. I'm not sure.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12How many years did Brown do?
0:22:12 > 0:22:13Take over from Blair.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17He took over from Blair after two and a bit terms.
0:22:17 > 0:22:18Yeah.
0:22:18 > 0:22:23- So do we think he only did one term, or the best part of one term?- Yeah.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27I've got it in my head that Heath only did one term,
0:22:27 > 0:22:30- but it might have been a five-year term.- Right.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32So it's if Macmillan did one or two terms.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37I think it was quite a turbulent time when Macmillan and Heath were
0:22:37 > 0:22:43in power, but I don't know if that means that they changed quickly.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49If you think Macmillan... I think it might be Macmillan.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52- Why not?- I don't know it for sure.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55We will plump for Harold Macmillan, please.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00OK, I was with you on the discussion there.
0:23:00 > 0:23:01You worked through it pretty well.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04Gordon Brown three years, Edward Heath four years,
0:23:04 > 0:23:05Harold Macmillan six years.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Well done. Macmillan is the answer.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11OK, Eggheads.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Erythropoietin, also known as EPO,
0:23:14 > 0:23:19is a hormone mainly produced in which part of an adult's body?
0:23:22 > 0:23:26- I think it's kidneys.- It's a blood booster thing, isn't it?
0:23:26 > 0:23:30It's one of the illegal substances in sport.
0:23:31 > 0:23:32I think it's kidneys.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35I think I remember reading it and thinking, "You don't hear of many
0:23:35 > 0:23:39"things produced by the kidneys," normally they're just filters.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41I think that's what I read.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Yeah, we know what it does but not where it comes from.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50We believe that's the kidneys.
0:23:51 > 0:23:57Kidneys is the right answer. Well done, Eggheads. Two each.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Third question can be crucial in this contest.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03Who did the actress Evan Rachel Wood marry in 2012?
0:24:10 > 0:24:12How are you on your gossip, guys?
0:24:12 > 0:24:15I think Rupert Grint's a bit young to be married yet.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20He's probably only 18-20 or something like that.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23- He's probably quite young to be married.- OK.
0:24:23 > 0:24:28Jamie Bell is the guy out of King Kong and...
0:24:31 > 0:24:33..Billy Elliot.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37He's a bit older.
0:24:37 > 0:24:42- Did he get married last year? - Unfortunately, I don't know that.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44If I was on my own, I'd guess Jamie Bell,
0:24:44 > 0:24:46but I don't want to sway you two.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47It's better than anything I've got.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52We're going to plump for Jamie Bell, I think, please.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54- Are they right?- Yeah.- I think so.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Yeah, you're right. Jamie Bell it is.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Three out of three, playing very well. OK, Eggheads.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Get this one wrong and the contest is over and you've lost.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05"What About Us?"
0:25:05 > 0:25:08became a UK number one single for which group in March 2013?
0:25:13 > 0:25:15It's The Saturdays.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Yeah, the other two haven't had number ones in 2012.
0:25:17 > 0:25:18That's The Saturdays.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23- Are you sure about that, Daphne? - Yeah, positive.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25The Saturdays featuring Sean Paul. Well done.
0:25:27 > 0:25:28Three each.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Couldn't have done any more by this stage, but they've kept
0:25:30 > 0:25:33track of you, unfortunately, so we go to Sudden Death.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36It gets a bit harder, I don't give you alternate answers.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40A Blaze Of Glory is the subtitle of the 1993 biography
0:25:40 > 0:25:42of which rugby player?
0:25:43 > 0:25:44How's your rugby?
0:25:47 > 0:25:52It doesn't feel good, right now. '93.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55It's got to be someone that would be interesting enough that
0:25:55 > 0:25:58- people would want to read a book about him.- Blaze Of Glory.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00- A character. - It could be Union or League.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03It must be someone who was a bit of a character.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05When did Martin Offiah...
0:26:05 > 0:26:07When did Martin Offiah retire?
0:26:07 > 0:26:11Obviously Chariots of Fire, Blaze Of Glory.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13I don't know, I'm just...
0:26:13 > 0:26:15I think it's a good shout.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17In the absence of anything else.
0:26:17 > 0:26:18- Yeah.- OK.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Unless it's... Oh, I don't know. Shall we go for it?
0:26:20 > 0:26:21- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23Right, in the absence of anything else,
0:26:23 > 0:26:27we've pondered over rugby union, rugby league.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Just because he was known as Chariots of Fire,
0:26:30 > 0:26:33we've gone for Martin Offiah.
0:26:33 > 0:26:34Martin Offiah is correct.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40- Good answer. Good answer. - Well done.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42All right, Eggheads, wow,
0:26:42 > 0:26:45you're having some tough contests these days.
0:26:45 > 0:26:46This to stay in.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50Which much-married Hollywood actress is quoted as saying,
0:26:50 > 0:26:53"I planned on having one husband and seven children,
0:26:53 > 0:26:56"but it turned out the other way around."
0:26:59 > 0:27:03- I can't think of one, can you think of one?- Well, Elizabeth Taylor.
0:27:03 > 0:27:04Elizabeth Taylor.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09Liz Taylor, much-married Hollywood actress.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11She fits the bill in that respect.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13How many different husbands.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16Six different husbands and seven weddings?
0:27:16 > 0:27:21I thought she had two sons by Michael Wilding.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23She had.
0:27:24 > 0:27:25She adopted one.
0:27:25 > 0:27:29Yeah, but if we think about the number of marriages,
0:27:29 > 0:27:32this implies seven marriages, doesn't it?
0:27:32 > 0:27:35How many marriages did Elizabeth Taylor have?
0:27:37 > 0:27:40- There was obviously Hilton.- Todd.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43- Michael Wilding.- Mike Todd.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45Was there anybody before Richard Burton?
0:27:45 > 0:27:47- Eddie Fisher.- Eddie Fisher, that's right.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50- He married Debbie Reynolds, didn't he?- Yeah.
0:27:51 > 0:27:55Then later on there was Larry Fortensky and John Warner.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59Yes, but she married Richard Burton twice.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01She doesn't have to count them twice in the seven.
0:28:01 > 0:28:05- She could just count them once. - I think Elizabeth Taylor.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08OK.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12After due consideration, we're going to go for Elizabeth Taylor.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15- The answer is Lana Turner.- Oh.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19So we say congratulations, Challengers, you have won.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27So we say well done to you, Rambling Badgers.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29We now know how you ramble.
0:28:29 > 0:28:32It's slow and it's accurate, you never take a wrong turning.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34- We always get there. We always get there.- You really did.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36It's brilliant. You've won £3,000.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38You are officially cleverer than the Eggheads.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40You've proved that they can be beaten.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42Do join us next time on Eggheads to see
0:28:42 > 0:28:45if a new team of Challengers will be just as successful.
0:28:45 > 0:28:46Until then, goodbye.
