0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where five quiz challengers
0:00:26 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34And taking on our quiz champions today
0:00:34 > 0:00:36are The Transmitters from Northumberland.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38This team know one another
0:00:38 > 0:00:42through their involvement in community radio. Let's meet them.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46Hi. I'm Paul. I'm 64 and I'm a musician.
0:00:46 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Jason. I'm 43 and I'm an internet consultant.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55Hi. I'm Paul, I'm 45 and I'm a financial trainer.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi. I'm Peter. I'm 42 and I'm a pianist.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Hi. I'm Andrew. I'm 42 and I'm a business events organiser.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Welcome, Transmitters. Tell me about the community radio. It's on the internet?
0:01:07 > 0:01:12It is, yes. So it's available all round the world, being on the internet.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15It's a community radio. We all give our time for it.
0:01:15 > 0:01:22Some of us have been involved in media work all our lives,
0:01:22 > 0:01:25including myself, but yeah.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29It's not just music. It can be all sorts of things that we do.
0:01:29 > 0:01:35We do encourage the community as a whole to send their own contributions to the show.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37I suppose it's very interactive, being on the internet.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41Oh, yes. We get people from all over the world.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44OK. Let me tell you what's been going on here, Transmitters.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Every day there's £1,000-worth of cash up for grabs
0:01:47 > 0:01:48for all our challengers.
0:01:48 > 0:01:53However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55So, Transmitters, the Eggheads have won the last 21 games.
0:01:55 > 0:02:00That therefore means £22,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Let's set about the task, shall we?
0:02:03 > 0:02:06The first head-to-head has come up as Sport.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10Who'd like to play this one and take on the Eggheads?
0:02:10 > 0:02:13I think Andrew, you are our sport expert.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15- I think so.- Smashing.
0:02:15 > 0:02:19- Go for it.- I'll take Sport and I'll take on Judith, please.
0:02:19 > 0:02:24OK, let's have Andrew and Judith into the question room.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Andrew, that's to make sure you can't confer with your team-mates.
0:02:28 > 0:02:32So, Andrew, I understand we're in the presence of royalty
0:02:32 > 0:02:33and I don't mean Judith!
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Definitely. What I discovered, doing my family tree,
0:02:37 > 0:02:43is that I was - or am - the 25th great-grandson of Henry III.
0:02:43 > 0:02:48Well, I never! Have you been to Buckingham Palace to claim your right?
0:02:48 > 0:02:52- No, but I intend to make a claim on it one day!- OK.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Make a claim on this round.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Do you want to go first or second?
0:02:56 > 0:02:58I'd like to go second, please, Dermot.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04OK. That puts Judith in there. Judith, your first question.
0:03:04 > 0:03:09In tennis, what name is given to a set where one player wins every single point.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Ooh. I think it must be golden.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Yes, it is a golden set, of course.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20Well done. One to you. Andrew, your first question.
0:03:20 > 0:03:27At the end of a Formula One race, what drink do the drivers usually spray around from the podium?
0:03:30 > 0:03:32I think that's champagne, Dermot.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34Yes, it is.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38Black coffee might be a bit scalding!
0:03:38 > 0:03:44Right. Judith, in rugby union, the number eight plays in which row of the scrum?
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Oh, gosh, I'm always learning this!
0:03:50 > 0:03:52One, two, three...
0:03:54 > 0:03:57Um, I'm trying to visualise it.
0:03:58 > 0:04:04- Second row.- OK. Second row. Nope. - No! Oh, God!
0:04:04 > 0:04:05It's quite simple, actually.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07You were doing one, two, three.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09That's how it's numbered in the scrum.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11And eight is the last in the scrum
0:04:11 > 0:04:14- therefore is the..?- First row.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16- Back row!- Oh, the back row.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18- Yeah.- Oh, the back row!
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Yes. One from the front. Start at the front with the hooker at number one.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Either side of him, the props, two, three.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Then you can count backwards till you get the number eight, the lock.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28It's the back row.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32Was that a good decision by Andrew to put Judith in.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34She has stumbled on her second question.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Andrew, let's see if you can capitalise.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Former athlete Gary Lough married which British athlete?
0:04:45 > 0:04:50I'm pretty sure it's not Kelly Holmes.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53And I think Jessica Ennis,
0:04:53 > 0:04:58I think she may be single. I'm not absolutely certain on that.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00So I'm going with Paula Radcliffe.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Paula Radcliffe is correct.
0:05:04 > 0:05:05So you do have a lead,
0:05:05 > 0:05:09and a place in the final round perhaps without answering another question
0:05:09 > 0:05:11if Judith doesn't get this. Judith,
0:05:11 > 0:05:16in what type of vehicles do competitors contest the Harmsworth Cup?
0:05:20 > 0:05:23I think that might be powerboats.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26I think it might be something to do with the Daily Mail, too.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28If it's called Harmsworth.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31- Powerboats.- Yes. - Powerboats is correct.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33So you're still in it.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36But not in control of your own destiny.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40Andrew's in charge of that. Get this, you're in the final round.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44The first FIFA World Cup for which Wales qualified
0:05:44 > 0:05:46was held in which country?
0:05:48 > 0:05:52Well, the Spain World Cup was in 1982
0:05:52 > 0:05:55and I know that Wales didn't qualify for that one.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58The Switzerland World Cup
0:05:58 > 0:06:01I believe was 1950.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04I'm not sure if they qualified for it or not.
0:06:04 > 0:06:08I know that they qualified in 1958 for Sweden
0:06:08 > 0:06:11so I'll go with Sweden, Dermot.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13My goodness! You know your world cups!
0:06:13 > 0:06:17Did you learn that for Eggheads, or did you know it anyway?
0:06:17 > 0:06:19I just have a love of football.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22You really do. It's the right answer. Well done.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23Wow.
0:06:25 > 0:06:271958 in Sweden.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Let's confirm it. Andrew, you're in the final round
0:06:30 > 0:06:33and Judith won't be there. Both please come and join your teams.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Good start for the Transmitters.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41They haven't lost any brains. The Eggheads have lost one after the first round.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Our next subject is Science.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Transmitters, who wants to play this one?
0:06:46 > 0:06:50Andrew can't play again. I'm sure you'd like to put him in if he's as good at science as he is at sport.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53- Peter.- Let's get Peter.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56I'll do that. And which Egghead? Not Judith.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- Do you want to go for the big gun? - Go for the jugular?- Why not?
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Go down in flames. Why not?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03We'll have Kevin, please.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06"Go down in flames"! There's confidence for you!
0:07:06 > 0:07:08We're talking about Kevin!
0:07:08 > 0:07:09Course you were.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13Peter and Kevin, both go to the question room, please.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19OK. Let's play it. Peter, do you want to go first or second?
0:07:19 > 0:07:20I'll go first, please.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Good luck, Peter. Here you go.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27To what does the letter G refer
0:07:27 > 0:07:29in the term g-force?
0:07:32 > 0:07:38Um, I think... Geometrics I've never heard as a term.
0:07:38 > 0:07:39I think it must be gravity.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Yes, it is.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Of course. Gravity.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Kevin, what is the common name
0:07:47 > 0:07:50for the condition known as eidetic memory?
0:07:54 > 0:07:56I should remember this, shouldn't I?
0:07:56 > 0:07:59That would be photographic memory.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Which some of you lot probably have.
0:08:01 > 0:08:02It's the right answer.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05Dermot, my father had an eidetic memory.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09He could look at a page in a book, and half an hour later,
0:08:09 > 0:08:12you could ask him what was the seventh word on the third line
0:08:12 > 0:08:14- and he would know it.- Seriously? - Seriously.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17- Did you inherit that? - Unfortunately not. I wish I had!
0:08:17 > 0:08:20OK. Well, that's interesting.
0:08:20 > 0:08:21All square, then.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23Second question coming up, Peter.
0:08:23 > 0:08:29In July 2012, which organisation announced it had discovered a new particle
0:08:29 > 0:08:33consistent with the much-sought-after Higgs-Boson.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Well, I know they were looking for it.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41I didn't know they'd confirmed it.
0:08:41 > 0:08:46But that surely must be CERN.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50- CERN?- CERN.- It's the right answer. Well done.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Which stands for, Kevin?
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Strangely enough, despite the initials,
0:08:57 > 0:09:01it's the Organisation for Nuclear Research.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04But the French initials went a bit wrong somewhere.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08- OK.- I think the C is perhaps meant to stand for Centre.
0:09:08 > 0:09:13But the official title of the organisation is still the Organisation.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16- But there we go.- OK.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18CERN we heard from Peter.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20So you have two. Kevin, your second question.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Which condition was called "the disease of kings",
0:09:23 > 0:09:26due to the fact that it was often thought to be brought on
0:09:26 > 0:09:27by consuming rich food and drink?
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Well, you wouldn't want any of them, but that particular one was gout.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Gout is the right answer, Kevin.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40OK. All square. Going well here, Peter.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44Here's your question. Osgood-Schlatter disease
0:09:44 > 0:09:47occurs in the vicinity of which parts of the body?
0:09:50 > 0:09:54I've never had less of an inkling
0:09:54 > 0:09:55for any answer!
0:09:55 > 0:09:59It could be any of them, as far as I'm concerned.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02I'm going to go for eyes.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04OK. Osgood-Schlatter disease.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07Well, they're all potentials, aren't they?
0:10:07 > 0:10:11If you've never heard of it. It's not eyes, no. Do you know, Kevin?
0:10:11 > 0:10:13I must admit, I've not come across this one.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16I'd just try knees, for the heck of it.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18OK. I bet Judith knows for sure.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20My son had it. It's knees.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22It is knees, as Kevin guessed at.
0:10:22 > 0:10:27Some bones grow faster than others, so it hurts a lot.
0:10:27 > 0:10:28Eventually, they all catch up.
0:10:28 > 0:10:33But he couldn't play games or anything.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36- But you grow out of it, quite literally.- He grew out of it, yes.
0:10:36 > 0:10:41OK. Knees is what we needed to hear
0:10:41 > 0:10:43but we didn't, so Kevin has a chance.
0:10:43 > 0:10:49The chemical squalamine which is thought to be a potent weapon against viruses in humans,
0:10:49 > 0:10:51was originally found in which creatures?
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Right. I don't know it. I haven't come across it.
0:10:58 > 0:11:04The only thing I can go for here, one of the orders of snakes,
0:11:04 > 0:11:06reptiles, is called Squamata.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09So that would seem to be very close.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12- So I'll go snakes.- OK. Snakes.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16Are you slithering into the final round? No, you're not.
0:11:16 > 0:11:17- Oh?- It's sharks.- Sharks, is it?
0:11:17 > 0:11:20- That was the second choice. OK. - Sharks.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22Good news for you, Peter.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25We go to sudden death. It's all square after three questions each.
0:11:25 > 0:11:30So to sort out a winner let's remove those choices and make it a lot harder.
0:11:30 > 0:11:35Here's your question. Jupiter is located between Saturn and which other planet?
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Mars.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Mars. Yes. Very well done.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Kevin, for what does the letter R stand
0:11:46 > 0:11:50in RHS, a syndrome common in Japan
0:11:50 > 0:11:52in which a woman develops stress-related illnesses
0:11:52 > 0:11:57when her spouse stops work and is therefore at home much more?
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Well, I've never come across this,
0:12:00 > 0:12:02but I assume the S stands for syndrome.
0:12:04 > 0:12:09And I'm assuming that the use of the word "spouse" means that the H means husband.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11So something husband syndrome,
0:12:11 > 0:12:13and stops work, I'll have to go for retired.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Yes. Well dissected. That is correct.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18That's a new one on me!
0:12:18 > 0:12:20RHS. Right.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Another pair of questions. Peter,
0:12:22 > 0:12:26the American Alfred Vail, who died in 1859,
0:12:26 > 0:12:30is best known for his association and work with which inventor?
0:12:30 > 0:12:36I suppose the inventor he's associated with could be of any nationality.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39But I'm going to play the percentages.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41It's in America
0:12:41 > 0:12:44and I'm going to go for Thomas Edison.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48OK. Thomas Edison.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50It's to do with communications. It's not Edison.
0:12:50 > 0:12:55- Do you know, Kevin?- I think Edison would have been too young at that stage.
0:12:55 > 0:13:01And so would Bell. I think they were both born in the same year, funnily enough.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05The only other one I can think of around that time is Morse.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09Yes. I gave you a clue saying communications. What was his first name?
0:13:09 > 0:13:13- Samuel. Samuel Morse.- Samuel Morse, we were looking for, Peter.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Kevin obviously doesn't get a point for that.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17He has to answer his own question. Kevin,
0:13:17 > 0:13:23Stephen Hawking was born in 1942 on the 300th anniversary
0:13:23 > 0:13:27of which astronomer and scientist's death?
0:13:27 > 0:13:29That was Galileo. Galileo Galilei.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Yes, that's right. Galileo Galilei.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Kevin's ability with dates.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39Bad luck, Peter. Got into sudden death. Did very well
0:13:39 > 0:13:42but just didn't quite make it. Both please come and join your teams.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46We've had some good old battles so far.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49The honours are even. Both teams have lost one brain
0:13:49 > 0:13:51from the final round.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Our next subject today is Film & Television.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Who would like to play this from Paul, Jason or the other Paul?
0:13:57 > 0:13:58Two Pauls and a Jason.
0:13:58 > 0:14:03- Jason?- Yeah.- Jason is definitely our expert on film.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05It's all relative, though, isn't it, Paul?
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Go for it. I'm sure you'll do very well.
0:14:07 > 0:14:12OK. Kevin and Judith have played, so you're choosing from the three closest to me.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15Pat, Barry and Chris.
0:14:15 > 0:14:19I would go for yourself and go with Chris.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22OK. I'd like to play against Chris, please, Dermot.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26OK. Let's have Jason and Chris into the question room, please.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Jason, do you want to go first or second?
0:14:30 > 0:14:32I'll go first, please.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38OK. You're going first. Good luck, Jason.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Nadia Sawalha and Kaye Adams have been regular hosts
0:14:41 > 0:14:45of which daily TV programme which debuted in 1999?
0:14:48 > 0:14:51Well, I know it's not Countdown.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57I'm fairly certain that it's probably not The Time, the Place.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59I think I'll go for Loose Women.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02Loose Women, yes. Correct.
0:15:04 > 0:15:05Chris,
0:15:05 > 0:15:10the TV series Ballykissangel was set in which country?
0:15:12 > 0:15:15I lost all interest in this when they killed off Assumpta.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17It's the Republic of Ireland.
0:15:17 > 0:15:18That's correct.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20OK, Jason.
0:15:20 > 0:15:25Who played the title role in the 2012 film, The Amazing Spiderman?
0:15:28 > 0:15:30I haven't seen this.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33It's not Jason Segel.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35I know that.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39It's between Andrew Garfield and Ryan Reynolds.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44I'm going to go for Ryan Reynolds.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Ryan Reynolds as The Amazing Spiderman.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50No, it was Andrew Garfield.
0:15:50 > 0:15:55You were guessing between the right two but chose the wrong one. Chris,
0:15:55 > 0:15:59which Australian actor was nominated for an Emmy and a Golden Globe
0:15:59 > 0:16:01for his performance as Luke O'Neill
0:16:01 > 0:16:04in the 1980s TV mini series The Thorn Birds?
0:16:08 > 0:16:11It's not Paul Hogan. He's Crocodile Dundee.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16I don't think Geoffrey Rush had come to prominence then,
0:16:16 > 0:16:18so I'll go with Bryan Brown.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Bryan Brown is the right answer.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23OK. Well, you need this, Jason.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27What did Andy Pandy live in
0:16:27 > 0:16:30when he first appeared on children's TV in the 1950s?
0:16:34 > 0:16:38Well, I don't think it was a flower pot, cos that was Bill and Ben.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42I think I'm going to go for a picnic basket.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45A picnic basket.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Is he right, Chris?
0:16:47 > 0:16:51Yeah, him and Looby Loo used to live in a picnic basket, yes!
0:16:53 > 0:16:55Correct, yes. A picnic basket.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58Looby Loo! Right, well.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Well done. Kept you in it,
0:17:00 > 0:17:03but Chris could decide it with this answer.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07Chris, who became Director General of the BBC in September 2012?
0:17:11 > 0:17:16That is George Entwistle, Dermot.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20George Entwistle is the right answer. Well done, Chris.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23Again, the Egghead just shaded it.
0:17:23 > 0:17:30Jason, that's a blot in your copybook because it cost you a place in the final round.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Both please come back and join your teams.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35So, as it stands,
0:17:35 > 0:17:39after that early victory by Andrew, the Eggheads have come back
0:17:39 > 0:17:42and The Transmitters have lost two brains from the final round.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44The Eggheads have lost one.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48And our last head-to-head before that final round is Geography.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51One of the Pauls can play this one.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53Yes, it'll be me.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56I've travelled round the world quite a bit,
0:17:56 > 0:17:58so I'd better see if I learned anything!
0:17:58 > 0:17:59Don't travel to the question room yet
0:17:59 > 0:18:02- because you have to choose an opponent.- Ooh!
0:18:02 > 0:18:05So, Paul, who is it going to be from the Eggheads?
0:18:05 > 0:18:07You can have Pat or Barry.
0:18:07 > 0:18:08Hmm.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11I'm going to go with Pat, please.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14Pat. Can I ask you both to make your way to the question room.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19Paul, you mentioned your travels.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21We know about your voice travelling the world when you broadcast,
0:18:21 > 0:18:25but physically, that's partly because you were in a band?
0:18:25 > 0:18:29Yes, I've been in bands since I left school.
0:18:29 > 0:18:36But probably my biggest claim to fame was I spent the best part of three decades with The Fortunes
0:18:36 > 0:18:38- who had hits in the '60s and '70s. - Wow.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42So that's how come I got to travel a lot around the world.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46Let's get down to business. Geography. Would you like to go first or second?
0:18:46 > 0:18:48I'm going to go second.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54OK. That puts Pat in, then.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Pat, first set of questions for you.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59Which English city is home to the National Exhibition Centre,
0:18:59 > 0:19:02often abbreviated to NEC?
0:19:05 > 0:19:08I've been there in the past to computer shows.
0:19:08 > 0:19:13It's a giant complex lying just to the east of Birmingham.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15That's correct.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Paul.
0:19:17 > 0:19:22Papua New Guinea lies just to the north of which neighbouring country?
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Well, it's not Sri Lanka.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31And it certainly isn't Mozambique.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33So that leaves Australia.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35It does, yes. That's right.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Pat, second question.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Which city in south-west England
0:19:42 > 0:19:44is served by St David's train station?
0:19:46 > 0:19:48Not sure about Plymouth's train station.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51One of Bath... Nor Bath...
0:19:51 > 0:19:55I think St David's is Exeter.
0:19:56 > 0:19:57- Exeter.- OK.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01Exeter, St David's. Just double-check with Chris here.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05Exeter St David's, Exeter Central, Exeter St Thomas.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07St David's is the main station, though.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09What about Bath and Plymouth?
0:20:09 > 0:20:12- Bath is just Bath Spa and Plymouth is North Road.- OK!
0:20:12 > 0:20:15North Road, Plymouth, Pat. Bath Spa.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19OK. And Exeter is correct.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Confirm that for you. OK.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Paul, what nickname is sometimes given
0:20:24 > 0:20:29to the A830, a Scottish road that connects Fort William and the port of Mallaig?
0:20:33 > 0:20:36I'll take the high road, you take the low road,
0:20:36 > 0:20:38or maybe the other way round.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41It's not the Road to the Stars.
0:20:41 > 0:20:46I'm pretty sure it isn't the Road to the Sea.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48I've never heard of that.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52But I have heard of Road to the Isles.
0:20:52 > 0:20:56Mallaig is the port where you would go across to the Isles,
0:20:56 > 0:20:57especially to the Isle of Skye.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00So that's my answer. Road to the Isles.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02OK. You sound like you've been there.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05- I have, yes.- OK. Played there?
0:21:05 > 0:21:09Um, probably! There's been so many, I forget.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Certainly on holiday there once.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12OK. It's the right answer. Yes. Well done.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Pat, what type of meteorological phenomenon
0:21:18 > 0:21:20is a derecho?
0:21:23 > 0:21:27What type of meteorological phenomenon is a derecho?
0:21:27 > 0:21:30D-E-R-E-C-H-O.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Derecho.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34No idea. No idea.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37Sounds Spanish. Spanish. Derecho.
0:21:39 > 0:21:44Nope. Can't see any way of working this one out.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46I'm going to be reduced to guessing.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Derecho.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Would you have a word for a heat wave? I suppose you could.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Although in Spain and Mexico
0:21:54 > 0:21:57and those sort of Latin places it's hot most of the time anyway.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Derecho. A mirage is tempting.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04I really have no idea.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06I'll go for heat wave.
0:22:06 > 0:22:10OK. Well, a lot of that mental effort has been wasted.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Because it's wind storm.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17OK, Pat. Well, great opportunity, then, Paul.
0:22:17 > 0:22:22Medellin and Cartagena are major cities
0:22:22 > 0:22:24in which South American country?
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Well. I don't think it's Peru.
0:22:31 > 0:22:32And I don't think it's Uruguay.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36I'm going off a film I saw years ago
0:22:36 > 0:22:39called Romancing the Stone
0:22:39 > 0:22:41or something along those lines,
0:22:41 > 0:22:43where they went to Cartagena
0:22:43 > 0:22:45and I believe it was Colombia.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47OK.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51No matter where you get your knowledge from, it's the fact you've got it.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53And that's correct, yes. Colombia.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Which puts you into the final round, Paul.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Both please come back and join your teams.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05Paul, that was quite a victory because Pat is a very good player,
0:23:05 > 0:23:09but particularly at Geography. That's only the third time you've lost in that category.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12- Well played.- You're in very good company,
0:23:12 > 0:23:17because one of the times he lost it was one of our greatest Olympians beat you,
0:23:17 > 0:23:20- Matthew Pinsent on the Celebrity Special.- Yes.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Good company, Paul. Well done.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24- Thank you.- So this is what we've been playing towards.
0:23:24 > 0:23:28It's time for the final round which is, as always, general knowledge.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30But those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:23:30 > 0:23:32won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:23:32 > 0:23:37So Jason and Peter from the Transmitters and Pat and Judith from the Eggheads,
0:23:37 > 0:23:40would you all leave the studio now please.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Well, Paul H, Paul B and Andrew,
0:23:44 > 0:23:47you're playing to win the Transmitters £22,000.
0:23:47 > 0:23:51Chris, Barry and Kevin, you're playing for something no amount of money can buy,
0:23:51 > 0:23:53the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59The questions are all general knowledge and you're allowed to confer.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03Transmitters, the question is, are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three.
0:24:03 > 0:24:07Do you want to go first or second in this round?
0:24:07 > 0:24:09I think we'd like to go second, please, Dermot.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Let's see if the Eggheads make a mess of it.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19Here you go, Eggheads. First question to you, then.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23Which composer won an Oscar for his score for the film Schindler's List?
0:24:27 > 0:24:32Which composer won an Oscar for his score for the film Schindler's List?
0:24:32 > 0:24:34- All agree on John Williams?- Yes.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38Yes, it was the most amazingly moving piece of music
0:24:38 > 0:24:41for film writing that I've heard for some time.
0:24:41 > 0:24:42And it was by John Williams.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44John Williams is correct.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48Transmitters, Agamemnon was reportedly
0:24:48 > 0:24:51the favourite Royal Navy ship of which historical figure?
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Agamemnon was reportedly the favourite Royal Navy ship
0:24:58 > 0:25:01of which historical figure?
0:25:01 > 0:25:03I don't think it's Walter Raleigh.
0:25:03 > 0:25:04No, I don't think it's Raleigh.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07I don't think it's Nelson, either.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10I don't think it's Nelson. That would be Victory or...
0:25:10 > 0:25:12I think it would be Queen Victoria.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14By a process of elimination,
0:25:14 > 0:25:19we don't think it's Walter Raleigh,
0:25:19 > 0:25:21don't recall it with Horatio Nelson,
0:25:21 > 0:25:23so I'll go for Queen Victoria.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26OK. Queen Victoria's favourite ship, Agamemnon.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30She was head of the navy and all the armed forces.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32But it's not.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34It's incorrect. Eggheads?
0:25:34 > 0:25:36- Nelson.- It is Nelson.
0:25:36 > 0:25:41- Agamemnon. Did he command that before he...- Yeah.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43In command of Agamemnon in the Med in the 1790s.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45I see. OK.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49Eggheads, The Mint is an autobiographical account
0:25:49 > 0:25:51of whose experiences in the RAF?
0:25:56 > 0:25:58The Mint is an autobiographical account
0:25:58 > 0:26:00of whose experiences in the RAF?
0:26:01 > 0:26:03He had different names at different times.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07- Ross and Shaw. But it's T.E.Lawrence.- Yep.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10The answer to that is T.E.Lawrence
0:26:10 > 0:26:12who went under the names of Aircraftman Ross
0:26:12 > 0:26:15and I believe Aircraftman Shaw in the RAF.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17He joined the Tank Corps as Shaw.
0:26:17 > 0:26:18Ah. OK.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Well, we didn't ask you that.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22But T.E.Lawrence is the right answer.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24OK, Eggheads. Well, Transmitters,
0:26:24 > 0:26:27it's over and out if you don't get this one.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31What is the title of the American office humour comic strip
0:26:31 > 0:26:33created by Scott Adams?
0:26:33 > 0:26:36It was first published in 1989.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43What's the title of the America office humour comic strip
0:26:43 > 0:26:45created by Scott Adams,
0:26:45 > 0:26:48that was first published in 1989?
0:26:50 > 0:26:54- It's...- Dilbert. I'm a big fan of his books on office life.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58It's a bit like Drew Carey. Have you seen the US programme Drew Carey?
0:26:58 > 0:27:00It seems very similar to that.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02- It's Dilbert.- Go with that.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04We believe it was Dilbert.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07OK. Dilbert. That's right.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Yes. You're on the board.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13But you'll have to sweat this one out.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16This could be decisive. Eggheads,
0:27:16 > 0:27:19the Danish author Sven Hassel
0:27:19 > 0:27:22is particularly known for writing about which topic?
0:27:25 > 0:27:27The Danish author, Sven Hassel,
0:27:27 > 0:27:31is particularly known for his writing about which topic?
0:27:31 > 0:27:33Sven Hassel writes about war.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36Particularly the Second World War.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40- Mm.- War is correct, Eggheads. You've won.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47I don't get to put another question to you, Transmitters.
0:27:47 > 0:27:51We never know whether that would have been three-one or three-two.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54But that stumble on the first question, and going second,
0:27:54 > 0:27:56meant no chance to recover.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00The Eggheads on very good form, as you know by the amount of money that's up for grabs.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03So bad luck, Transmitters, but a very good team, we can tell.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06Very even in those head-to-heads
0:28:06 > 0:28:08and just lost out in the final round.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11- Best of luck with the broadcasting. - Thank you.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Thanks very much for playing the Eggheads today.
0:28:13 > 0:28:17The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them. Their winning streak continues.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £22,000.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21That means the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:21 > 0:28:25Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:28 > 0:28:30have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33£23,000 says they don't.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35Until then, goodbye.
