These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:08 | |
Together they make up the Eggheads, | 0:00:09 | 0:00:11 | |
arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:15 | |
The question is, can they be beaten? | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five challengers | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
They are the Eggheads. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
And challenging our quiz Goliaths are... | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
This team have been friends since their schooldays. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
They applied for the programme after seeing their favourite teacher lose his head-to-head. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:44 | |
Let's meet them. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
Hi, I'm Joe, I'm 22 and I'm an economics graduate. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
Hi, I'm Alex, 22, sports graduate and cricket coach. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
My name's John, I'm 22 and I'm studying for a masters in business management. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:57 | |
Hi, I'm Neil, I'm 22 and I work in finance. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
Hi, I'm Sam, I'm 22 and I'm a recent civil engineering graduate. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
Welcome to you. So here for a bit of revenge. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
-Was he one of your favourite teachers? -He was our favourite maths teacher at school. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:12 | |
They lost every round, though, so I think we'll do a bit better than that. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
And you all went to school together? | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
A few of us went to primary school together, so from the age of four, | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
and the rest of us have known each other since the age of 11. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:26 | |
Fantastic. Tell me about the quiz name, Quiz Team Assemble. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:30 | |
I think I know what you're referring to there. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
It's just a quote from our favourite film, Anchorman. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:37 | |
That's one of my favourites. Just call me Ron Burgundy! | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
Well, let's play, then, Quiz Team Assemble. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
Every day, there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
the prize money rolls over to the next show. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
The Eggheads have won the last six games. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
That means £7,000 says you can't beat them. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
Let's get on with it. First head-to-head is on History. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
Who'd like to play this? | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
-I think it's agreed that I would. -We'll go with Neil on this one. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:07 | |
-I'll have a pop. -We've got John the history graduate, but we'll leave it for Neil! | 0:02:07 | 0:02:12 | |
-I'm not sure that makes sense. -Playing to our strengths! | 0:02:12 | 0:02:16 | |
Who would you like to play from the Eggheads? | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |
-Who do we think? -I will... | 0:02:18 | 0:02:22 | |
I'll have a go at Daphne, please. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
Let's have Neil and Daphne into the Question Room. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:28 | |
That's to make sure you can't confer with your teammates. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:33 | |
Neil, do you want to go first or second? | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
Can I go first, please? | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
OK, Neil, first question is this... | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
Which post-war UK Prime Minister was nicknamed Sunny Jim? | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
I assume the Jim is short for James. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
I know it's Edward Heath, | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
Harold Wilson, I believe, and James Callaghan, | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
so, erm, I'll go for Callaghan, please. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:02 | |
You've worked it out. It's the right answer. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
Daphne, your first question. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:06 | |
What name was given to the fashionable modern young women of the 1920s? | 0:03:06 | 0:03:11 | |
They were Flappers! | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
They were. That is the right answer. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
Why Flappers? | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
They were flighty, air-headed young women | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
who got in a flap about things. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
-Right. -At one time, a pillion seat on a motorcycle was called a flapper bracket. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
Was it? OK! | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
We have a pair of correct answers to the first questions. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
Neil, your second one. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
At one time, the formal title "Despot" | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
was given to princes of which empire? | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
Erm, I haven't got a clue, I'm afraid. Erm... | 0:03:46 | 0:03:51 | |
It doesn't sound particularly Japanese. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:55 | |
I'm not particularly good with languages | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
but I don't think that sounds Japanese. | 0:03:57 | 0:04:00 | |
I've never even heard of Byzantine. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:04 | |
Erm... | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
I'll just go for Aztec. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
OK, Aztec. Despots from the Aztec Empire... | 0:04:08 | 0:04:13 | |
I suppose in the modern understanding of the word, | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
there were quite a few of them in the Aztec world, | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
but they weren't called that. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
Daphne, do you know? | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
-Byzantine. -Byzantine. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
Daphne, this is your question, then, for a lead. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
Which British king married a woman whose full name was... | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
..Victoria Mary Augusta Louise Olga Pauline Claudine Agnes? | 0:04:31 | 0:04:38 | |
That was... | 0:04:42 | 0:04:45 | |
..George V. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:46 | |
Queen Mary. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
-Queen Mary of...? -Teck. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:50 | |
Yes. Became much shorter than all that. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:54 | |
George V is the right answer. You have a lead. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:56 | |
Neil, you need to get a correct answer here. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:00 | |
What is the name of the movement named after a Dutch theologian | 0:05:00 | 0:05:04 | |
and promoted by the French monk Jean du Vergier de Hauranne? | 0:05:04 | 0:05:09 | |
Again, never heard of it, I'm afraid. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
If it's something to do with the Dutch, | 0:05:16 | 0:05:18 | |
I would lean towards, er, | 0:05:18 | 0:05:22 | |
is it Jansenism? | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
-I'll go with my gut and say Jansenism. -OK. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
And you've got it. It's the right answer. Well done. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:30 | |
You've got to hang on in there and hope Daphne doesn't get this. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
In Anglo-Saxon England, | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
what was a gemot? | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
Well, this one passed me by, so... | 0:05:44 | 0:05:48 | |
No, nothing's coming. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:53 | |
It'll have to be a guess. I will guess... | 0:05:53 | 0:05:57 | |
What will I guess? I'll guess... | 0:05:57 | 0:06:01 | |
-..a dungeon. -OK, a dungeon. Other Eggheads? | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
-Meeting. -It's a meeting, Daphne. -Oh. OK. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:09 | |
I told you I didn't know! | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
That's good news for you, Neil. You did hang in there. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
You're into Sudden Death now, which means we remove those options. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
Here's your question. The Order of Saint Lazarus, dating back to the Crusades, | 0:06:18 | 0:06:23 | |
was established to tend those suffering from which disease? | 0:06:23 | 0:06:27 | |
Er, never heard of it. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
Er, I'm trying to think of diseases which were fairly common back then. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:36 | |
It's going to have to be a guess, I'm afraid. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:39 | |
I'll just go for... | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
.typhoid. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:44 | |
OK, typhoid. Terrible disease, but not the one we wanted. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
Daphne, do you know? | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
-Leprosy. -Leprosy is the answer. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
This is your question, Daphne. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:54 | |
"Apostolic King" | 0:06:54 | 0:06:56 | |
was a title given to the kings of which country? | 0:06:56 | 0:07:00 | |
Oh, dear! I ought to know this. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:03 | |
The Apostolic King... | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Oh, dear. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:09 | |
Spain? | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
No! Incorrect. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:16 | |
Second chance she's had and missed it. It's Hungary. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:19 | |
Hungary. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:21 | |
You live again to fight another day. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
You don't often see that with Daphne, | 0:07:23 | 0:07:26 | |
missing two chances to wrap the round up. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:28 | |
Who was British Prime Minister | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
when the Corn Laws were repealed, Neil? | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
I'm starting to use this phrase a bit too often, I'm afraid I don't know! | 0:07:34 | 0:07:39 | |
I... | 0:07:39 | 0:07:41 | |
I don't even know when that happened particularly. Erm... | 0:07:41 | 0:07:46 | |
I will just take another complete shot in the dark | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
and go for... | 0:07:49 | 0:07:52 | |
-..Benjamin Disraeli. -OK. Benjamin Disraeli. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:56 | |
It's incorrect, Neil. It's not. Do you know, Daphne? | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
-Was it Peel? -Yes. Robert Peel. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:03 | |
So another chance for Daphne. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
Which European revolutionary volunteered as a naval captain | 0:08:06 | 0:08:10 | |
for the state of Rio Grande do Sul | 0:08:10 | 0:08:12 | |
during his South American exile of 1836 to 1848? | 0:08:12 | 0:08:18 | |
I know his surname | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
but I can't remember his Christian name. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
Well, it's Garibaldi. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
Erm... | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
Oh, crumbs! | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
Giuseppe Garibaldi? | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
-Is that your answer? -Yes. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
-Giuseppe Garibaldi. -Yes. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
It's the correct answer! Yes, Daphne. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:48 | |
You dredged it up from somewhere. Going through agonies there! | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
-Yes. -Mental agonies! As we were! | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
Quiz Team Assemble were hoping you wouldn't get it. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
Giuseppe Garibaldi was it. | 0:08:57 | 0:08:59 | |
-You always had Garibaldi in your mind. -Yes. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
You know I wouldn't have allowed it without the first name. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
You are through to the Final Round. No place for you, Neil. Come back and join your teams. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:10 | |
OK, as it stands, Quiz Team Assemble are one member down. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:14 | |
The Eggheads are all there. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:16 | |
Quiz Team, we move on to our next head-to-head. It's Music. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:20 | |
Who wants to play this one? | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
We had someone in mind for that, didn't we? John. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
Even though I was the history graduate, I think I'll play Music. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:29 | |
All right, then, John, choose an Egghead. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:31 | |
Who would you like to play? | 0:09:31 | 0:09:34 | |
Providing there's no Sugababes questions, I think I'll go against Chris. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
DERMOT LAUGHS | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
You share a dislike of girl bands with Chris? | 0:09:40 | 0:09:43 | |
-I just know it's his strength. -Well, yes! | 0:09:43 | 0:09:46 | |
Let's have John and Chris into the Question Room, please. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:51 | |
OK, John the historian, time to put your music knowledge to the test. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:55 | |
-Do you want to go first or second? -First, please, Dermot. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
Good luck, John. Here you go. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:03 | |
"Hop on the bus, Gus" | 0:10:03 | 0:10:05 | |
is one of the 50 ways to do what, according to Paul Simon? | 0:10:05 | 0:10:08 | |
OK, well, the Tell Me Lies reference is wasted on me, sadly. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:15 | |
Amarillo, Tony Christie... | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
Neil Sedaka wrote it, I think. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
Presumably, it's Leave Your Lover. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:23 | |
It is indeed. That's the right answer. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
50 Ways to Leave Your Lover. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
"Hosanna" and "Gethsemane" | 0:10:27 | 0:10:30 | |
are musical numbers in which Andrew Lloyd Webber show? | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
They're both Biblical references so it's Jesus Christ Superstar. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:40 | |
Yes, it is. That's the right answer. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
Back to you, John. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
In which century was the English composer Henry Purcell born? | 0:10:44 | 0:10:49 | |
OK, I must say, | 0:10:53 | 0:10:54 | |
I was hoping to avoid composers, you know, | 0:10:54 | 0:10:58 | |
so I'm going to have to have a slight guess on this one, I think. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:02 | |
Erm, I'm not entirely sure. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
I'm not remotely sure, if I'm honest, | 0:11:05 | 0:11:07 | |
so I'm going to go for... | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
..17th century. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
OK, the 17th century. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
A little chuckle from the Eggheads because you've got the right answer. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
The game within the game I like to play with Kevin is, | 0:11:19 | 0:11:23 | |
what precise year was Henry Purcell born? | 0:11:23 | 0:11:26 | |
Funnily enough, I can remember the year he died, 1695, | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
but I can't... He wasn't that long-lived. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:31 | |
-So... -What would your guess be? -What would my guess be? | 0:11:31 | 0:11:35 | |
1659. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
-That'd be about right! -OK. -1659 precisely. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:43 | |
There he goes! Well, there we are! | 0:11:43 | 0:11:46 | |
Second question to Chris. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
Released in 2007, | 0:11:48 | 0:11:50 | |
what is the title of Kylie Minogue's tenth studio album? | 0:11:50 | 0:11:54 | |
The short answer to that is "Who Cares?" but, erm... | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
Er... | 0:11:59 | 0:12:01 | |
HE HUMS TO SELF | 0:12:02 | 0:12:05 | |
One from three - X. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:08 | |
OK. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
Picking up on the tenth link there. It is the right answer. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:14 | |
Well done. All square. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
Going well, John. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
What was the title of the song performed by Jedward at the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest? | 0:12:18 | 0:12:24 | |
I'm quite proud to say | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
that I'm not 100 percent sure on this, either! | 0:12:29 | 0:12:33 | |
Again, it's going to be a bit of a guess. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
I can't believe Waterfront. That sounds like a crazy title. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:41 | |
Then, again, they all do. I'm going to go for Waterlogged. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:46 | |
OK, Waterlogged. Which is actually what their challenge was really! | 0:12:46 | 0:12:52 | |
It was not Waterlogged. | 0:12:52 | 0:12:54 | |
I won't even ask Chris. He doesn't even know who Jedward are. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:58 | |
-Other Eggheads? -Waterline? -Waterline, yes. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:01 | |
-Wasn't it their second consecutive appearance? -It was. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:05 | |
That was the amazing fact about the appearance! It was their second! | 0:13:05 | 0:13:09 | |
It's Waterline, | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
where you might be holed below if Chris gets this. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:15 | |
The ballet Pineapple Poll uses an arrangement of music by which composer? | 0:13:15 | 0:13:20 | |
It uses tunes from HMS Pinafore by Arthur Sullivan. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:28 | |
John's not kicking himself. I'm sure you wouldn't have fancied that question. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:32 | |
It is the right answer. Chris, you are through. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:35 | |
Bad luck, John. No place for you. Would you both join your teams? | 0:13:35 | 0:13:40 | |
Quiz Team, you've been whittled down a bit. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
Two brains missing from the final. The Eggheads haven't lost any. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:47 | |
Our third head-to-head is Arts & Books. Who wants to play this one? | 0:13:47 | 0:13:51 | |
-I think Sam. -Sam's playing this. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:53 | |
That's one of a couple we didn't want to come up. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:57 | |
THEY TALK AT ONCE | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
Well, you thought it through and you know the categories. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
Sam, by default, going for it. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
Who would you like to play? It can't be Daphne or Chris. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:08 | |
You have Barry, Dave or Kevin. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:11 | |
Dave? | 0:14:11 | 0:14:13 | |
-Do you want to take Dave on? -Yes. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:15 | |
I'll go against Dave, I think. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:17 | |
Let's have Sam and Dave into the Question Room. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
OK, Sam, this, of course, is the round, | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
this is the category that your favourite teacher, Mr Rushton, played, isn't it? | 0:14:23 | 0:14:29 | |
If I remember rightly, that's correct. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:31 | |
You're there to avenge him. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
Let's hope you don't have the same outcome. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:36 | |
Would you like to go first or second? | 0:14:36 | 0:14:38 | |
I'll go first, please. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
Good luck, Sam. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:46 | |
What type of clothing is named after the artist Gainsborough, | 0:14:46 | 0:14:50 | |
as it featured in several of his portraits? | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
I've never even heard of Gainsborough, I'm afraid, | 0:14:55 | 0:14:58 | |
so it's going to be pure guesswork. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
Erm, I'm assuming that you wouldn't paint someone in shorts | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
as often you would in a raincoat or a hat, | 0:15:04 | 0:15:07 | |
so I'll guess raincoat. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:10 | |
OK, raincoat. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:12 | |
You're right about the shorts, but it is a hat. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:15 | |
A hat. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:18 | |
Dave, | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
in Shakespeare's King Henry IV Part 2, | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
to whom does Henry IV say, "I know thee not, old man"? | 0:15:22 | 0:15:26 | |
-Falstaff. -On the basis of what - the other two aren't even in it? | 0:15:29 | 0:15:33 | |
Yes. I've still got to brush up a lot of Shakespeare, but Falstaff. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:37 | |
That's correct. Falstaff. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
OK, Sam, you need to get this, I suspect. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:43 | |
Which writer built the house Max Gate | 0:15:43 | 0:15:46 | |
and lived there until his death in 1928? | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
Again, I don't know, I'm afraid! | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
Pure guesswork again! Erm... | 0:15:55 | 0:15:58 | |
My philosophy has always been "If in doubt, go for C" | 0:15:58 | 0:16:01 | |
so I'll go for EM Forster. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
OK. EM Forster is... | 0:16:03 | 0:16:07 | |
I see what you did in the first one, then. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
-Not the right answer again. -OK! -EM Forster is incorrect. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
Do you know, Dave? | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
I don't really know. I'd go Gerard Manley Hopkins myself. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
-Is it Hardy? -It's Hardy. -I didn't know he'd lived that late. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:23 | |
A chance for Dave to take the round. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:26 | |
Which English society hostess, born in 1873, | 0:16:26 | 0:16:30 | |
was the inspiration for characters created by DH Lawrence and Aldous Huxley? | 0:16:30 | 0:16:35 | |
I don't know the answer to this. Erm... | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
I do like the look of Sibyl Colefax so I'll go for that. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
-Sibyl Colefax. -OK. Sibyl Colefax. Is it, other Eggheads? | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
ALL: No. Ottoline Morrell. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
-It's Ottoline Morrell. -Fair enough. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:54 | |
Right... | 0:16:54 | 0:16:57 | |
Just hanging in there, Sam, but you need to get this one. | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
The 2012 children's book "Itch" was written by which radio presenter? | 0:17:00 | 0:17:05 | |
I've never heard of "C" in this case so I won't be going for that! | 0:17:09 | 0:17:14 | |
Because Chris Moyles has stopped his show most recently, | 0:17:14 | 0:17:18 | |
I'll go for him. Chris Moyles. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:20 | |
OK. Chris Moyles. Time to write a children's book, perhaps... | 0:17:20 | 0:17:24 | |
You'll be glad it wasn't "C", James Naughtie. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:30 | |
But it's not "B". It's Simon Mayo. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:32 | |
Simon Mayo wrote Itch. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:35 | |
I think it's time for you to get your coat! | 0:17:35 | 0:17:39 | |
-Sorry about that! -That's all right. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:41 | |
Nothing there. Nothing at all. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:43 | |
-Dave has assembled enough points to knock you out. -Just about! | 0:17:43 | 0:17:48 | |
Would you both please come back and join your teams? | 0:17:48 | 0:17:52 | |
Quiz Team Assemble, you need to put that round behind you. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:55 | |
Let's move on | 0:17:55 | 0:17:56 | |
and try and get one of you through into the Final Round. | 0:17:56 | 0:18:00 | |
This last head-to-head is Film & Television. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:05 | |
So we have Alex or Joe. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
-I'll go for it. -OK, Joe, it's you. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
You can play... | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
-..Kevin or Barry. -Who shall I play? | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
-Barry? -Yes, take Barry. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
-Barry, I think. -All right. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:20 | |
Of course. Joe and Barry to play Film & Television | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
from the Question Room, please. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:26 | |
Joe, you better get through or there won't be any quiz team to assemble! | 0:18:26 | 0:18:31 | |
All right, it's Film and TV. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:33 | |
-Do you want to go first or second? -I'll go first, please. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
In Little Britain, | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
which David Walliams' character wanted to "write the theme tune, sing the theme tune"? | 0:18:42 | 0:18:47 | |
It's Dennis Waterman. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
Dennis Waterman is correct, yes. It's the right answer. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
Your first question, Barry. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:58 | |
In 2011, Rachel Bright | 0:18:58 | 0:19:01 | |
took on the role of Poppy Meadow in which soap? | 0:19:01 | 0:19:04 | |
I only watch two of those soaps, | 0:19:06 | 0:19:08 | |
Coronation Street, which I absolutely adore, | 0:19:08 | 0:19:11 | |
and Emmerdale, which I also enjoy, | 0:19:11 | 0:19:13 | |
and she's not in either of those so she must be in EastEnders. | 0:19:13 | 0:19:17 | |
Lucky you watched two out of three, otherwise you might've struggled. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:22 | |
EastEnders is correct, by process of elimination. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:26 | |
Joe, good start. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:28 | |
Which film had the tagline | 0:19:28 | 0:19:30 | |
"Nothing On Earth Could Come Between Them"? | 0:19:30 | 0:19:32 | |
Well, I'm not sure I... | 0:19:35 | 0:19:38 | |
I didn't think it was Titanic | 0:19:38 | 0:19:40 | |
but I don't know the other two that well. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:44 | |
I'll go for Titanic. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:45 | |
OK. Titanic. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
As Sam pointed out in his round, the "C" option, he called it. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:52 | |
Are you going to sink without trace? No! It's the right answer. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:58 | |
Barry, which film production company, | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
founded by Tim Bevan and Sarah Radclyffe, | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
was behind "Four Weddings and a Funeral" and "Bridget Jones's Diary"? | 0:20:03 | 0:20:07 | |
I'm going to have to start reading the credits at the end of films! | 0:20:09 | 0:20:13 | |
My cup of tea might have to wait an extra ten minutes! | 0:20:13 | 0:20:18 | |
I think it was Working Title. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:19 | |
It's the right answer, Barry. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
It's all square. Going well, Joe. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:24 | |
Get this on the board and you never know what might happen. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
Which British actor starred with Ingrid Bergman | 0:20:27 | 0:20:30 | |
in the 1949 Alfred Hitchcock film "Under Capricorn"? | 0:20:30 | 0:20:35 | |
Slightly before my time! | 0:20:38 | 0:20:39 | |
Er... | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
-I'll go with Michael -Willding. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:46 | |
-OK. Michael Wilding. -Wilding, sorry. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
-It's the right answer! -There you go! -Good guess. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:54 | |
You have those three. Barry needs this. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:56 | |
The actress Mila Kunis was born in which modern-day country? | 0:20:56 | 0:21:00 | |
-Can you just spell that name for me? -M-I-L-A | 0:21:03 | 0:21:06 | |
K-U-N-I-S. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:08 | |
Kunis. That's not an Armenian name. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
Their names always seem to end in I-A-N. | 0:21:11 | 0:21:15 | |
Mila Kunis. I don't think it's a Georgian name, either. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:19 | |
I shall go for the Ukraine. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
Mila Kunis - born in the Ukraine. It is. Well worked out. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:25 | |
It's all square. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:27 | |
We go to Sudden Death, Joe, | 0:21:27 | 0:21:30 | |
removing the options. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:32 | |
Which British actor played the character Benji Dunn for the first time | 0:21:32 | 0:21:37 | |
in the 2006 film Mission: Impossible III? | 0:21:37 | 0:21:41 | |
-Have you seen it? -I have. I think, er, it's Simon Pegg. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:46 | |
-Is that your answer? -Yes. -It's the right one. Simon Pegg. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:51 | |
Well done. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:53 | |
Who played the title character in the 1991 film | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
"Father of the Bride"? | 0:21:56 | 0:21:58 | |
I think I have seen this a long time ago. | 0:21:58 | 0:22:00 | |
It was a remake, wasn't it, of a '40s film? | 0:22:00 | 0:22:03 | |
I think it was Steve Martin. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:06 | |
That's correct, yes. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
Back to you, Joe. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:09 | |
Which American actress has played characters called | 0:22:09 | 0:22:13 | |
Sukie Ridgemont, Susie Diamond and Velma Von Tussle | 0:22:13 | 0:22:17 | |
during her film career? | 0:22:17 | 0:22:20 | |
-I don't know. I wouldn't even... -You're going to pass? -Yes. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:26 | |
-Is that Madeline Kahn? -That's incorrect. Other Eggheads? | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
-Renee Zellweger. -No. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
-Michelle Pfeiffer. -Michelle Pfeiffer, from Kevin there. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
OK. You have a chance to win it on your question. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:38 | |
Who played Tonya, the wife of the title character in the 1965 film Doctor Zhivago? | 0:22:38 | 0:22:44 | |
I know this because I've had tea with this lady! | 0:22:44 | 0:22:48 | |
It was Geraldine Chaplin. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
That is the correct answer! | 0:22:50 | 0:22:52 | |
Tell us about tea with Geraldine Chaplin! | 0:22:52 | 0:22:55 | |
I was in a movie which never got finished, made in Israel, a western. | 0:22:55 | 0:22:59 | |
She was a member of the cast and she invited us to a little tea room for afternoon tea. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:04 | |
-It was a delightful afternoon! -How lovely! When was this? | 0:23:04 | 0:23:06 | |
This was about 1972. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:09 | |
I didn't realise you were an actor! | 0:23:09 | 0:23:12 | |
That's putting too good a gloss on it, I would think! | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
What was your part? | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
There was a number of slaves in a quarry | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
who had to dig out rock, | 0:23:21 | 0:23:23 | |
and I was the guy beating the drum so they could dig to my movement! | 0:23:23 | 0:23:27 | |
-You still do that with the Eggheads! -Something like that, yes! | 0:23:27 | 0:23:31 | |
And it wasn't released, what, because of your performance? | 0:23:31 | 0:23:34 | |
I think they ran out of funds two-thirds of the way through! | 0:23:34 | 0:23:38 | |
Bad luck. Who knows, you could've had a different career! | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
I can see you as a British Robert Redford. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
In my dreams, possibly! | 0:23:45 | 0:23:47 | |
That's a wonderful memory. Thanks for sharing it. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:50 | |
You're in the Final Round. No place for you, Joe. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
Would you both please come back and join your teams? | 0:23:52 | 0:23:56 | |
This is what we've been playing towards. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
It's time for the Final Round. As always, it's general knowledge. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
Those who lost your head-to-heads will not be allowed to take part. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:05 | |
It's Quiz Team Disassemble, I think! | 0:24:05 | 0:24:08 | |
Joe, John, Neil and Sam from Quiz Team Assemble, | 0:24:08 | 0:24:11 | |
would you all leave the studio, please? | 0:24:11 | 0:24:15 | |
Alex, you're playing to win Quiz Team Assemble £7,000. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:19 | |
Kevin, Dave, Daphne, Chris and Barry, | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
you're playing for something which money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:25 | |
I'll ask each team three questions in turn. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:28 | |
The questions are general knowledge and you are allowed to confer. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:32 | |
Alex, is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five? | 0:24:32 | 0:24:36 | |
-Alex, would you like to go first or second? -First, please. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:39 | |
Good luck. As you've probably seen over the years, | 0:24:43 | 0:24:47 | |
quite often, one on their own has beaten the Eggheads. Let's see if you can. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:51 | |
The sportsman most likely to be referred to by the initials RVP | 0:24:51 | 0:24:57 | |
plays which sport? | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
I was happy that came up because sport was one of my subjects. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:05 | |
RVP plays football. Robin van Persie. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
OK. Oh, you've given me it. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:10 | |
It's a pity I had to hear that name but I won't tell you why! | 0:25:10 | 0:25:13 | |
It's the right answer. | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
He's pretty kind of, Dave, mediocre! | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
-Great striker. -He gets the odd lucky goal! | 0:25:18 | 0:25:20 | |
-Superb striker. -Overpaid and greedy. -Not at all, no! | 0:25:20 | 0:25:24 | |
I think he found his true vocation in 2012. He came home. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:31 | |
OK. RVP is Robin van Persie. We move on to the Eggheads, then. | 0:25:31 | 0:25:35 | |
Figures of which animals make up a significant part of the Terracotta Army, | 0:25:35 | 0:25:40 | |
which was discovered in China in 1974? | 0:25:40 | 0:25:42 | |
VARIOUS: Horses. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:47 | |
Lots of human figures in the Terracotta Army | 0:25:47 | 0:25:50 | |
but also quite a few horses. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:53 | |
It's the right answer, Eggheads. Horses. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:57 | |
Good start there, Alex. Second question. | 0:25:57 | 0:26:00 | |
Which castle overlooks the Derbyshire town of Castleton? | 0:26:00 | 0:26:05 | |
I lived in Derbyshire up until I was three or four, | 0:26:09 | 0:26:12 | |
but I'm not sure. I don't remember very much. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:16 | |
Erm... | 0:26:16 | 0:26:18 | |
I've heard of Bolsover Castle, | 0:26:18 | 0:26:21 | |
but it doesn't mean a great deal to me. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:24 | |
-I'll go for Duffield Castle. -OK, Duffield Castle. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:28 | |
It's not. Eggheads, do you know? | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
-Peveril. -It's Peveril Castle. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
You were probably a bit young when you left to remember much. | 0:26:32 | 0:26:37 | |
Which French term is used in cycle racing | 0:26:37 | 0:26:40 | |
to describe a rider who works for the benefit of his team and leader? | 0:26:40 | 0:26:44 | |
ALL: Domestique. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:50 | |
That is Domestique. | 0:26:50 | 0:26:52 | |
Domestique. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:53 | |
It's the right answer, Eggheads. Alex, you need this. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:58 | |
The Order of the White Eagle, instituted in 1705, | 0:26:58 | 0:27:01 | |
is the highest decoration in which country? | 0:27:01 | 0:27:03 | |
I'm going to try and link this back to sport. | 0:27:06 | 0:27:10 | |
I think the Poland shirt has a white eagle on it, | 0:27:10 | 0:27:13 | |
on their badge, possibly. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:14 | |
It certainly a white symbol. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
I'm trying to think if that's an eagle. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:20 | |
-I'm going to go for Poland. -OK. Poland. | 0:27:20 | 0:27:22 | |
Linking it to football, which seems to be your strength. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:25 | |
It's the right answer! Well done! | 0:27:25 | 0:27:28 | |
Keeping your hopes alive. Will they be crushed here? | 0:27:28 | 0:27:31 | |
Where on his body does the Pope wear his pallium? | 0:27:31 | 0:27:35 | |
-It's a cape. -On his shoulders. It's a shawl. -Yes. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:42 | |
