These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:08 | |
Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:15 | |
The question is, can they be beaten? | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
Welcome to Eggheads, where five quiz challengers pit their wits | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain - they are the Eggheads. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:33 | |
Taking on our quiz champions today | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
are The Understudied, who know one another | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
through the Everyman Theatre in Liverpool. Let's meet them. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:43 | |
Hi, I'm Ruth, I'm 35 and I'm a PA. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
Hi, I'm Scott, I'm 37 and I work in marketing. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
Hi, I'm Sarah, I'm 32 and I work on the box office. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
Hi, I'm Vince, I'm 52 and I'm a trustee of the Everyman. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:57 | |
Hi, I'm Deborah, I'm 48 and I'm the Executive Director. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:01 | |
Welcome, Understudied. I'm liking this team name. I see several ways it can go. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:06 | |
With the theatre connection, understudies, but is it a reference to the learning you've done? | 0:01:06 | 0:01:14 | |
-Possibly, yes! -Under studied. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
You've just got to have life experience. Tell me about the Everyman. Famous theatre. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:24 | |
You all work there. Vince, you're a trustee. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
-Are you trying to raise money to help it along? -Yes, we're rebuilding the theatre from scratch | 0:01:27 | 0:01:34 | |
-on a bigger site. -What's it got now and what's it going to have? | 0:01:34 | 0:01:39 | |
It's had a wonderful three-sided auditorium and that will be recreated, as will the bistro, | 0:01:39 | 0:01:45 | |
but it will have wonderful new front of house spaces, be very green, have rehearsal space, workshops | 0:01:45 | 0:01:51 | |
and with space for our youth and community work. Really vibrant. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
Best of luck with that. Let's play. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
Every day there's £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers, | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
but if they fail to win it rolls over to the next show. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:07 | |
So, Understudied, the challengers won the last game, | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
so £1,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
And our first Head to Head battle is going to be on History. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:19 | |
Who'd like to lead off with this? | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
-History. -I think that'll be me, Dermot. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
All right, Sarah. Choose an Egghead. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
- What do you think? - They're all too good! | 0:02:27 | 0:02:32 | |
We'll try Dave? Give Dave a try. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
You're right. It is a subject that all the Eggheads do enjoy. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:39 | |
Let's see if you enjoy it, Dave. You've been selected. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:44 | |
Let's have Sarah and Dave into the Question Room. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
-Sarah, first or second? -I'll go second, please, Dermot. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
OK, putting Dave in first. Which city was captured by Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, in 597BC? | 0:02:54 | 0:03:01 | |
I think that's Jerusalem. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:06 | |
Jerusalem is the right answer, Dave. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:10 | |
Sarah, your first question. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:12 | |
During WWII, | 0:03:12 | 0:03:15 | |
members of the WAAF made up the female auxiliary of which service? | 0:03:15 | 0:03:21 | |
OK, well, I'm hoping that the clue is in the question. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
Women's Auxiliary. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 | |
Judging by the letters, Air Force. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
Right, yes. Women's Auxiliary Air Force. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
And, Dave, the Battle of Bramham Moor was part of a rebellion against Henry IV | 0:03:36 | 0:03:42 | |
led by which family? | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
I'm not too sure. I'll go Percy. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
Percy is the right answer. And Sarah, | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
from the 14th century to the 18th, the Bucentaur was a barge used by whom? | 0:03:54 | 0:04:01 | |
I know there's the Doge's Palace in Venice, so the Doge would have been a very important dignitary. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:12 | |
And obviously Venice would be a good place to have a barge! | 0:04:12 | 0:04:17 | |
He would need some way of getting around. So I'll go for the Doge of Venice. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:24 | |
Well worked out. That's the right answer. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
And Dave, the Battle of Sharpsburg is another name for which battle of the American Civil War? | 0:04:27 | 0:04:33 | |
Sharpsburg. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
Em, I don't know, | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
so it's going to have to be a guess. I'll go for Mile Hill. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:45 | |
Mile Hill, the Battle of Sharpsburg. It's not. Other Eggheads? | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
-Antietam. -It's Antietam. -OK. -Bloodiest single day in the war. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:54 | |
Bloodiest single day? Roughly how many killed? | 0:04:54 | 0:04:59 | |
Many thousands. 17,000 or something. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
-And where is it? -Maryland. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:05 | |
OK, a real chance here, Sarah. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
You did really well with that second one. Do well with this and you're through. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:13 | |
A mass burial ground under which London market provided evidence of a volcanic eruption of 1258? | 0:05:13 | 0:05:20 | |
OK. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
I'm leaning towards Spitalfields. I'm not entirely sure why. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:31 | |
I have been to Spitalfields Market. It's a very nice market now, | 0:05:31 | 0:05:36 | |
but it was... I think, was it the fruit and veg market? | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
At one stage? | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
Again, that doesn't really help me with the answer to the question, | 0:05:43 | 0:05:48 | |
but I think I am going to go with my instinct and that is Spitalfields. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:52 | |
Instinct leading you to Spitalfields. And leading you into the final round. It's correct! | 0:05:52 | 0:05:58 | |
Well, an unblemished record there. Well done. You're in the final round. Dave, you're not. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:06 | |
Both please come back. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:09 | |
The Eggheads have lost one brain, the Understudied are all there. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:14 | |
Our next subject is Arts and Books. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
Well, I would suspect | 0:06:16 | 0:06:19 | |
-plenty of you would like to play this. -Yes, I'll take it, Dermot. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:24 | |
Now which Egghead will you take? It can't be Dave. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:28 | |
-I think we'll try Pat, please. -OK, Ruth and Pat. Please, into the Question Room. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:34 | |
OK, Ruth, do you want to go first or second against Pat? | 0:06:34 | 0:06:39 | |
I think I'll go first, please. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
Ruth, first question. Which of these is the name of a school of fine art in London, founded in 1871? | 0:06:45 | 0:06:51 | |
Ooh. I'm not actually sure about this one. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:59 | |
It is going to have to be a guess. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
And I will go with...Slade. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:04 | |
Slade. The school of fine arts in London, founded in 1871. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:09 | |
Yes, it's the right answer. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
And, Pat, | 0:07:13 | 0:07:15 | |
Fili, Kili, Oin and Gloin are characters in which children's book? | 0:07:15 | 0:07:19 | |
I think they're dwarves in The Hobbit. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:27 | |
They go off, I think, to the Black Mountain after Smaug's gold. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:32 | |
-So I think it's The Hobbit. -Right answer, yes. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:36 | |
All square. Back to you, Ruth. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
Which Shakespeare play features the line, "Be not afeard. The isle is full of noises"? | 0:07:38 | 0:07:45 | |
I'm going to rule out Hamlet. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
I'm going to rule out Twelfth Night. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
And I'm going to go with The Tempest. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
Do you put on much Shakespeare? | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
-We do, yeah. -OK. You've got the right answer. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:03 | |
Pat, along with the Reina Sofia and Thyssen-Bornemisza Museums, | 0:08:05 | 0:08:11 | |
what completes the Golden Triangle of art? | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
Well, my immediate thought is it's the Prado | 0:08:17 | 0:08:22 | |
seeing as all three are in Madrid. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
So if the Golden Triangle is a tight triangle within one city, | 0:08:25 | 0:08:29 | |
that would be the Prado. So I'll go for Prado. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:33 | |
Right answer. Well worked out, Pat. Ruth, | 0:08:33 | 0:08:37 | |
Zack Busner appears several times in the books of which author? | 0:08:37 | 0:08:41 | |
Now I've not heard of him, | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
and a lot of people have told me to read the David Mitchell books. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:52 | |
I wish I had now because I might have known whether it was or wasn't David Mitchell, | 0:08:52 | 0:08:58 | |
but just because of that I'm going to go with David Mitchell. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:02 | |
It's not. You won't find Zack Busner in David Mitchell's works. Do you know, Pat? | 0:09:02 | 0:09:08 | |
-I'd have gone for Will Self. -It is Will Self. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:12 | |
Pat needs to get his own question. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:15 | |
In traditional Maori arts, | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
what is a whakairo? | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
They're all fairly plausible artistic endeavours by the Maori. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:29 | |
All fairly plausible. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
I think I'll go for carving. They did quite a bit of wood carving. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:37 | |
Whakairo you think is carving. It is the right answer, Pat! | 0:09:37 | 0:09:42 | |
You've pinched the round. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
Bad luck, Ruth. Going well there, but Pat is in the final round and you will not be appearing. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:50 | |
Both please come back and join your teams. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:54 | |
It's all square after that. Both teams have lost one brain. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:58 | |
Our next subject is Sport. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
Who'd like to play this one? | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
-Scott? -I think I'll take Sport. -Yes, I saw you react there when it came up. Which Egghead? | 0:10:03 | 0:10:09 | |
Dave and Pat have already gone. It's Judith, Daphne or Kevin. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:15 | |
-I think I'll take... -Judith. -Er, Judith. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:19 | |
OK. Let's have you both into the Question Room, please, Scott and Judith. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:24 | |
Scott, the game finely balanced at the moment. First or second? | 0:10:24 | 0:10:29 | |
I think I'll go second, please. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:31 | |
Judith, in 2012, Roger Federer's 287th week at number one on the ATP List | 0:10:34 | 0:10:42 | |
broke the record of which tennis player? | 0:10:42 | 0:10:46 | |
I think that is Pete Sampras. | 0:10:48 | 0:10:51 | |
Yes, got to be, hasn't it? Well done. Judith very comfortable with a tennis question there. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:57 | |
Scott, in sports such as cycling and rowing, | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
what is the heat in which runners-up get a second chance to qualify for the final? | 0:11:00 | 0:11:05 | |
Em, I wouldn't have known the answer before the Olympics, but I think from watching the Olympics | 0:11:08 | 0:11:14 | |
dressage is obviously an event within equestrian. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:18 | |
I'm not quite sure what equipage is, but I think it is the repechage. | 0:11:18 | 0:11:23 | |
It is, yes. The repechage. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:25 | |
And so a second question each. What is the emblem of the Welsh national rugby union team? | 0:11:28 | 0:11:34 | |
Oh, goodness. I'm sure it's not a leek. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |
My immediate thought was Green Dragon until the feathers came up. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:46 | |
-I think it's a Green Dragon. -OK. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
-Dragon. No, it's the feathers. -The Prince of Wales's Feathers! | 0:11:51 | 0:11:55 | |
OK, well, | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
a chance for Scott. Was your choice to put Judith in first very wise? Let's see. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:04 | |
The medal ceremony for which event traditionally takes place during the Olympic Games closing ceremony? | 0:12:04 | 0:12:11 | |
I don't know this for a fact, but I believe the heptathlon is quite early on in the Olympics. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:22 | |
I've no real idea when the women's basketball is. I'm pretty sure the Men's Marathon is on the last day. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:28 | |
-I'll guess at that. -All those hours you spent watching those Olympics stood you in good stead. It's right. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:35 | |
Two questions out of two. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
There you are. You have a lead and you might not have to answer another question | 0:12:38 | 0:12:44 | |
if Judith doesn't get this. From 2011-2012, John Toshack was the manager of which football team? | 0:12:44 | 0:12:51 | |
I can't believe... I mean, Malta's so tiny. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:59 | |
It's only got about enough people to make a football team in it! | 0:12:59 | 0:13:03 | |
Moldova... Oh, golly. I don't know. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:07 | |
-Macedonia. -Is that a guess? -Of course it's a guess! | 0:13:07 | 0:13:12 | |
-Macedonia is the team in question. It's right. -Oh, how lucky! | 0:13:14 | 0:13:19 | |
All right. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
You do have to answer another one, but a correct answer guarantees you a place in the final round, Scott. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:28 | |
In 2012, Rory McIlroy won the USPGA Championship at which venue? | 0:13:28 | 0:13:33 | |
I don't really know the answer to this, so I will guess. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:42 | |
I'll go with Kiawah Island. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:44 | |
For a place in the final round. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
It's in the hole! Right answer. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
-Well... -Thank you. -It means Judith won't be there. Both please join your teams. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:57 | |
The Eggheads behind again. They've now lost two brains, the challengers have lost one. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:04 | |
Our next subject is Film and TV. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
Who wants to play this? | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
-It'll be me. -I think we've probably lost! | 0:14:09 | 0:14:13 | |
-OK, that's me. -OK, Vince. Dave, Judith and Pat have played, | 0:14:13 | 0:14:18 | |
so you have got Kevin or Daphne. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:22 | |
I think I'm going to be brave and go for Kevin. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:26 | |
OK, right. Should be a good fight. Let's have Vince and Kevin into the Question Room, please. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:32 | |
OK, Vince, do you want to go first or second? | 0:14:32 | 0:14:36 | |
Scott and Sarah have both gone through coming second, so I'll follow their strategy. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:42 | |
Kevin, what was the name of the 1995 spin-off from Baywatch? | 0:14:45 | 0:14:51 | |
Baywatch wasn't something I actually watched as such. | 0:14:55 | 0:15:00 | |
There was a spin-off from Dallas called Knots Landing, so I assume that's a trap. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:06 | |
I think there was something called Baywatch Nights. Baywatch and Son doesn't sound terribly likely. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:12 | |
Baywatch Nights, right answer. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:15 | |
Right, Vince. Which TV show was introduced with the words, "From Norwich, it's the quiz of the week"? | 0:15:17 | 0:15:24 | |
I think I'm old enough to remember this one. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:31 | |
Nicholas Parsons and Sale of the Century, I think. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:36 | |
You might have seen an edition - it's right - with you on it, Daphne? | 0:15:36 | 0:15:41 | |
Yes, I won the Mini. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
-A Mini. That's pretty good for Sale of the Century! -I know! | 0:15:43 | 0:15:48 | |
The other prizes were empty boxes. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
And I had 12 bottles of malt whisky, a TV and a picnic hamper as well. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:57 | |
-You cleaned up! -Yeah. | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
Sale of the Century is a successful answer there. It's all square. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:03 | |
Kevin, how is Duane "Dog" Chapman known in the title of an American TV series? | 0:16:03 | 0:16:09 | |
The name certainly doesn't ring any bells. I might be on the wrong track, | 0:16:13 | 0:16:17 | |
and thinking of the wrong show, but I'm sure there was The Bounty Hunter, so The Bounty Hunter. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:24 | |
Bounty Hunter. I wonder if that Dog nickname is a clue. It's the right answer, yes. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:30 | |
OK, Vince, | 0:16:30 | 0:16:32 | |
which novelist contributed to the screenplays for The Great Escape and To Sir With Love? | 0:16:32 | 0:16:38 | |
Well, I haven't got a clue | 0:16:42 | 0:16:44 | |
about the answer to that so just as a complete guess | 0:16:44 | 0:16:50 | |
I'm going for Sidney Sheldon. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:53 | |
-No, it's incorrect. Kevin? -It's James Clavell. -James Clavell. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:58 | |
So you have to sit and hope here, Vince. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:02 | |
Kevin, who played the sinister newspaperman Kevin McMaxford | 0:17:02 | 0:17:07 | |
in the 1997 film Spice World? | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
Strangely enough, I didn't see this. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:16 | |
Much as I tried to force myself. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:18 | |
Could Barry... Was Barry Humphries in it? | 0:17:18 | 0:17:22 | |
My first thought was it sounded as though it could well have been Ken Campbell, | 0:17:22 | 0:17:28 | |
but Kevin McMaxford? | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
I'm going to try Barry Humphries. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
Barry Humphries. Tossing that up very carefully | 0:17:34 | 0:17:38 | |
and getting the right answer! | 0:17:38 | 0:17:40 | |
Barry Humphries is right. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
And you have a place in the final round. Bad luck, Vince. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:47 | |
Both please come back and join your teams. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:50 | |
This is what we've been playing towards - the final round on General Knowledge. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:55 | |
But those of you who lost | 0:17:55 | 0:17:58 | |
won't be allowed to take part, so Ruth and Vince | 0:17:58 | 0:18:02 | |
and Judith and Dave, would you all leave the studio, please? | 0:18:02 | 0:18:07 | |
So Scott, Sarah and Deborah, you're playing to win £1,000. | 0:18:07 | 0:18:12 | |
Pat, Kevin and Daphne are playing for something money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:18 | |
I'll ask each team three questions, all General Knowledge, and you are allowed to confer. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:24 | |
So, The Understudied, are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three? | 0:18:24 | 0:18:30 | |
-Guys, do you want first or second? -We'll go second. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:34 | |
In 2012, who was replaced as presenter of a BBC radio morning show by Nick Grimshaw? | 0:18:37 | 0:18:44 | |
-Chris Moyles. -Chris Moyles? | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
That's Chris Moyles. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:51 | |
-And the show in question? -Radio One Breakfast Show. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:56 | |
Yep, it's the right answer. OK, Understudied. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:59 | |
Which word is used to refer to topics which are particularly current on Twitter? | 0:18:59 | 0:19:05 | |
-Em... -This is your area of expertise, isn't it? -It is. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:11 | |
It would be awful if I was wrong. I would say it's trending, Dermot. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:16 | |
If you beat the Eggheads, it may well happen to you. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:21 | |
It's the right answer, yes. Eggheads, | 0:19:21 | 0:19:25 | |
the flag of which Mediterranean island consists of the heads of four Moorish men and a red cross | 0:19:25 | 0:19:32 | |
on a white background? | 0:19:32 | 0:19:34 | |
-It's definitely not Rhodes. -It's one of the other two. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:40 | |
I think it's Sardinia. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:43 | |
-I think they may both have a black head on their flag. -They have. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:52 | |
Which one's got the red cross? | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
My slight preference is for Corsica, but I am uneasy. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
-I don't have a confident view. -No, I don't. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:04 | |
-OK, which one? -All I know is I saw a picture | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
and it was Sardinia, | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
but I didn't take any notice of the middle bit. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:13 | |
-You think Corsica's also got four? -Yeah. Or has one of them only got one? | 0:20:13 | 0:20:19 | |
One's got four and the other one's got one? | 0:20:19 | 0:20:23 | |
If you have a preference for Sardinia, you think you've seen it. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:27 | |
Yeah. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
As you can see, we're torn | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
between Sardinia and Corsica. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
-We're going for Sardinia. -OK. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
You've gone for Sardinia and it is... | 0:20:38 | 0:20:41 | |
the right answer! | 0:20:41 | 0:20:43 | |
-I think the Corsican one is a single head. -Yeah. | 0:20:43 | 0:20:47 | |
-A black head on a white background. -It's the same design, wearing a bandana, but it's only one. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:53 | |
-Yeah, only the one. -You finally worked that out - unfortunately! | 0:20:53 | 0:20:57 | |
That nearly worked for you again, putting them in first. | 0:20:57 | 0:21:01 | |
They've been at sixes and sevens with that tactic. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:05 | |
But you have to catch up here with your second question. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:10 | |
The New Vaudeville Band had a UK Top Ten hit in 1966 singing about which cathedral? | 0:21:10 | 0:21:16 | |
-Well... -Hmm. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
-You're looking at me because I'm the person who was alive in 1966. -Yes. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:26 | |
I was toddling in 1966. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
Winchester Cathedral, Gloucester Cathedral, Hereford Cathedral. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:34 | |
-Hereford is where the Mappa Mundi is because we read that on the train! -Of course. -That doesn't help. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:41 | |
If you wanted to write a song about a cathedral, which would you choose? | 0:21:41 | 0:21:45 | |
-I'd go for Winchester unless you knew something interesting about Hereford. -Like Mappa Mundi... -Yes! | 0:21:45 | 0:21:52 | |
Hereford Cathedral... | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
-Shall we just go for the one we both had a bit of an instinct for? -Yes. | 0:21:56 | 0:22:02 | |
Which is...gulp... we'll say Winchester Cathedral. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:08 | |
Winchester Cathedral. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:10 | |
-Ask Kevin. He knows it very well. Is it Winchester Cathedral? -Yes. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:15 | |
The right answer - well done! It's all square | 0:22:15 | 0:22:19 | |
as we head into a third question. The college known as Central St Martins is a leading institution | 0:22:19 | 0:22:26 | |
for students of what subjects? | 0:22:26 | 0:22:29 | |
-Arts and design? -Yeah. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:35 | |
I'm reliably informed it's arts and design. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:42 | |
-You wouldn't have had any idea. -I didn't. -But you'd have guessed it! | 0:22:42 | 0:22:47 | |
It's the right answer. I'm sure the Understudied would have got it, too. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:52 | |
This is your question. The most westerly point of Ireland is in which county? | 0:22:52 | 0:22:58 | |
-It's a long way to Tipperary! -It is! -You're quite right. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:07 | |
Now I lived in Ireland for five years so this will be really embarrassing if I don't know this. And I don't. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:15 | |
-So it is going to be deduction. -OK. -Embarrassingly, I can't visualise | 0:23:15 | 0:23:19 | |
where Tipperary is. Cork is furthest south on the west. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:24 | |
Then you've got Kerry down the west coast | 0:23:24 | 0:23:28 | |
and the Dingle Peninsula. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:31 | |
I'm leaning in the direction of Kerry, but I can't picture Tipperary. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:38 | |
-It could be in to throw you. -Because it's such a long way. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
-If that's what you've deducted... -OK. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
It could be goodbye. We're going to say Kerry. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:51 | |
OK, well, it is goodbye if it's wrong... Stay there! | 0:23:51 | 0:23:55 | |
-It's not wrong. It's the right answer. -Fantastic! | 0:23:55 | 0:23:59 | |
It's into sudden death, then. | 0:23:59 | 0:24:01 | |
We remove those choices. The Eggheads' first question. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:06 | |
The Pintupi people are indigenous to which country? | 0:24:06 | 0:24:10 | |
The Pintupi... P-I-N-T-U-P-I. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:15 | |
-The Pintupi people are indigenous to which country? -Any thoughts? Australia? | 0:24:15 | 0:24:21 | |
-They sound South American. -Oh, that's true. Brazil. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:25 | |
-Yeah, could be. -A tribe in Brazil. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:29 | |
-That sounds good. -What? -Being South American, Amazonian. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:34 | |
Tribal varieties and numbers, Indonesia is tremendous for that. | 0:24:34 | 0:24:39 | |
-In Brazil... -Papua New Guinea. Could be an Australian Aboriginal tribe. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:45 | |
I mean, there are Tupi Indians, | 0:24:45 | 0:24:49 | |
so... Maybe there could be Pintupi. I don't know. I mean, it's slightly worrying. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:55 | |
-But we'll try it. -OK. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:58 | |
-Dermot, we're going to try Brazil. -Brazil for the Pintupi people. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:04 | |
They're indigenous to...Australia. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
Really? | 0:25:07 | 0:25:08 | |
A chance to beat the Eggheads. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:11 | |
This is your question. The Pataca - P-A-T-A-C-A - | 0:25:11 | 0:25:16 | |
is the unit of currency of which Chinese administrative region? | 0:25:16 | 0:25:21 | |
We talked about these on the train, but the only three we'd heard of. | 0:25:21 | 0:25:26 | |
And they were... | 0:25:26 | 0:25:29 | |
Guangxi, Guangdong | 0:25:29 | 0:25:33 | |
-and Sichuan. -Yes. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:35 | |
-I guess we have to go with one of the three. -We haven't got the foggiest idea, have we? | 0:25:35 | 0:25:42 | |
-We've got no inkling towards any of them. -Shall we just go Sichuan? -Yes, yes. | 0:25:42 | 0:25:47 | |
OK, we're going to guess Sichuan. | 0:25:47 | 0:25:50 | |
OK. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:52 | |
It's not correct. Eggheads? | 0:25:52 | 0:25:54 | |
-Macau. -Macau. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:57 | |
-It wasn't one of our three! -Former Portuguese colony. | 0:25:57 | 0:26:02 | |
OK, another pair of questions. | 0:26:02 | 0:26:04 | |
Eggheads, the WWII Lancaster bomber was built by which company, | 0:26:04 | 0:26:09 | |
co-founded in 1910 by Alliott Verdon Roe? | 0:26:09 | 0:26:13 | |
AV Roe. Avro. | 0:26:13 | 0:26:15 | |
Yeah. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:17 | |
That was the Avro Lancaster. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
It is the right answer, Eggheads. Avro. On surer ground there | 0:26:21 | 0:26:25 | |
with your WWII aircraft. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:28 | |
You need to get this, Understudied. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
The Julie and Robert Breckman Gallery of Prints and Drawings | 0:26:30 | 0:26:35 | |
opened in 2005 in which London museum? | 0:26:35 | 0:26:38 | |
-I worked with a Robert Breckman. He was an accountant. -Was it him? | 0:26:38 | 0:26:44 | |
I can't remember if his wife was called Julie. He worked for the Fringe and didn't charge high fees. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:52 | |
If it is that Robert Breckman, the Theatre Museum was still open then. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:58 | |
Mm, it was. I think the Theatre Museum Archive is now with the V&A. | 0:26:58 | 0:27:04 | |
It is. But if it would have opened in 2005 at the Theatre Museum... | 0:27:04 | 0:27:09 | |
If it is that Robert Breckman, he wasn't ridiculously wealthy. | 0:27:09 | 0:27:14 | |
It's between that and the V&A. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:17 | |
-Would it be the Theatre Museum? -The only hunch we've got is that it's Robert Breckman who was accountant | 0:27:17 | 0:27:23 | |
to the Theatre Fringe. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:25 | |
He loved the theatre. The Theatre Museum was still open in 2005 I'm relatively sure. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:31 | |
-If we say V&A and it's the Theatre Museum, we've made fools of ourselves! -Yes, we have. | 0:27:31 | 0:27:37 | |
-If it's the Theatre Museum, we need to get it. -Go on, then. -OK, Dermot. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:42 | |
We will go for the Theatre Museum. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:45 | |
OK, the Theatre Museum. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:47 | |
It opened in 2005 in... | 0:27:47 | 0:27:50 | |
the Victoria and Albert Museum. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:52 | |
-Oh! -Which is what you were thinking of! Eggheads, you've won. | 0:27:52 | 0:27:57 | |
Bad luck. What a great game! | 0:28:03 | 0:28:05 | |
Even through those Head to Heads, the Eggheads really had to fight. | 0:28:05 | 0:28:10 | |
And let me say, in that final round, wow! | 0:28:10 | 0:28:14 | |
You were vulnerable, but just managed to claw, hang on to the very end. Bad luck. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:20 | |
Thank you very much indeed for giving them a run for their money, | 0:28:20 | 0:28:24 | |
but the Eggheads have done what comes naturally and reign supreme. | 0:28:24 | 0:28:29 | |
You won't go home with the money, so it rolls over. | 0:28:29 | 0:28:32 | |
Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you? | 0:28:32 | 0:28:36 | |
Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers can defeat the Eggheads. £2,000 says they don't. | 0:28:36 | 0:28:42 | |
Until then, goodbye. | 0:28:42 | 0:28:45 | |
