0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:15Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:32pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35Taking on our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:35 > 0:00:38are the Sutton Leprechauns. This team of friends
0:00:38 > 0:00:43are very much charity-minded and can often be found in the Sutton Coldfield area,
0:00:43 > 0:00:48fund-raising and, presumably, looking for rainbows. Let's meet them.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Hi, I'm Jonathan, I'm 36 years old and I'm a project manager.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm James, I'm 34 and I'm a principal engineer.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Darren, I'm 36 and I'm a design engineer.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Rob, I'm 37 years old and I'm a telecoms consultant.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Hi, I'm Matt, I'm 32 and I'm a chartered accountant.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09Welcome to you, Sutton Leprechauns.
0:01:09 > 0:01:14You don't look like leprechauns to me, but you dress up and raise a lot of money for charity.
0:01:14 > 0:01:19Yes, we try to bring a different angle to fund-raising in our local area.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22How did you get the idea of dressing up as leprechauns?
0:01:22 > 0:01:27It was actually one year when some of our friends, not myself included,
0:01:27 > 0:01:31but some of them here dressed up in costumes -
0:01:31 > 0:01:35a monk, a king, and they were a bit heavy and very hot,
0:01:35 > 0:01:39so we decided on something a bit lighter. But it's not any cooler.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43It's still just as hot inside our leprechaun costumes.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47- Any Irish links amongst you? - No.- Not really.- A little.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50Did you have to get the suits specially made?
0:01:50 > 0:01:56- No. One of us is a bit bigger than the rest of us.- Is there anything more different from a leprechaun?
0:01:56 > 0:02:01Let's hope a pot of gold is waiting for you at the end of this game against the Eggheads.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05Every day, there is £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:02:05 > 0:02:10If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over,
0:02:10 > 0:02:12so the Eggheads have won just the last game,
0:02:12 > 0:02:16which means £2,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Our first head-to-head is on Food & Drink.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23So, which of our little leprechauns there likes his food and drink?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27- You fancy this, don't you, Darren? - I watch a lot of cookery programmes.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- I think you're probably best placed. - I'll have a go.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Darren's going to go for it.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36And which Egghead would you like to play, Darren?
0:02:36 > 0:02:38I think I'll take Kevin out straight away.
0:02:38 > 0:02:44OK, it's going to be Darren against Kevin on Food & Drink. Into the question room, please.
0:02:45 > 0:02:50OK, Darren, I understand you all have your own patch as leprechauns.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Which area do you represent?
0:02:52 > 0:02:56- I'm a Boldmere leprechaun. - Boldmere leprechaun, I see.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Do you dress up on your own as well when you fancy it?
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Well, you know, you've got to do these things sometimes, yes.
0:03:02 > 0:03:07And juggling, what's that all about, most people juggling at once?
0:03:07 > 0:03:11When I was younger and a bit thinner, my first time to Glastonbury,
0:03:11 > 0:03:17about 800 people all got together and got into the Guinness Book of Records for the most people juggling.
0:03:17 > 0:03:22Try and make a bit of a record here and knock Kevin out. Would you like to go first or second?
0:03:22 > 0:03:25I'll put the pressure on and go first.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Darren, here's your first question. Good luck.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Which drink is made from equal quantities of gin and sweet vermouth?
0:03:40 > 0:03:45Which drink is made from equal quantities of gin and sweet vermouth?
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Gin and sweet vermouth...
0:03:47 > 0:03:49I don't think it's a mojito.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52I've not heard of a Black Velvet.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Gin and IT or Black Velvet...
0:03:55 > 0:03:57I think I'll go for a Black Velvet.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01OK, Black Velvet...
0:04:01 > 0:04:04We gave you gin in the question and it is Gin and IT.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08Black Velvet, a leprechaun should know that!
0:04:08 > 0:04:11It's Guinness. Guinness and champagne.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16Two good drinks wasted, if you ask me. OK, well, nothing there.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20Kevin, which basic food is called "fromage" in French?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Which basic food is called "fromage" in French?
0:04:25 > 0:04:29- That would be cheese. - It is cheese, yes.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Darren, second question.
0:04:31 > 0:04:37For what does the V stand in "AVA", the name for US wine districts?
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Vineyard...
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Viticultural...
0:04:45 > 0:04:48I don't know the answer to this one.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52I think I'm going to go for Viticultural.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56It's the right answer. Well done, yes.
0:04:56 > 0:05:01AVA is American Viticultural Area. Well identified, Darren.
0:05:01 > 0:05:07Kevin, what name is given to a cold dessert made from rich custard set with gelatine in a mould?
0:05:10 > 0:05:14That would seem to...
0:05:14 > 0:05:16I'm sure it's not a bavarois.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Pithiviers, I'm not certain.
0:05:18 > 0:05:23But the gelatine bit would seem to indicate to me that it's the compote,
0:05:23 > 0:05:25so, compote.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27OK, compote...
0:05:27 > 0:05:31It's the looks of consternation on the faces of the other Eggheads!
0:05:31 > 0:05:33- Oh, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin!- Really?
0:05:33 > 0:05:37- Oh, miles off.- Oh, right. - Judith, you tell me.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41- It's a bavarois.- It's a bavarois that you ruled out to start with.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44- I was thinking of something else. - You certainly were.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Well, that makes it all square.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49One each. Everything to play for.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53Darren, Springerle are a German type of what?
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Springerle.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59I don't know the answer to this.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03Biscuits, dumplings
0:06:03 > 0:06:05or doughnuts.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08I'm going to go for a guess.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12I think Germany like their dumplings, so I'm going for dumplings.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16They probably like their biscuits as well which is what it is.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Springerle are types of biscuits.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22A chance for Kevin in spite of that slip on the second one.
0:06:22 > 0:06:28Kevin, the Macon appellation covers a wide area of which French wine region?
0:06:30 > 0:06:32- M-A-C-O-N?- Yeah.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36- Yes, it's in Burgundy. - Oh, you know that one?- Oh, yeah.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38"Oh, yeah, of course I do!"
0:06:38 > 0:06:43- Kevin, it's Food & Drink. You're not fooling anyone here.- That's wine.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46Wine, of course. That's why it is "oh, yeah".
0:06:46 > 0:06:50It's right, Kevin. You're in the final round. Bad luck, Darren.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:06:53 > 0:06:59One round gone, one Leprechaun gone, all the Eggheads there. Let's move on to our next head-to-head - Music.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02Who'd like to play this one from the Leprechauns?
0:07:02 > 0:07:08- Rob, are you going to take this? - I'll take this one.- You're the man in the band.- Yeah, I'll take this one.
0:07:08 > 0:07:13- I'll take this one, Dermot. - OK, Rob, which Egghead would you like to play? It can't be Kevin.
0:07:13 > 0:07:18- I'll try Chris, please. - Let's have Rob and Chris into the question room, please.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22OK, Rob, so you're in a band, right?
0:07:22 > 0:07:27- Yes, Dermot.- You all dress as leprechauns in that band and play diddly-diddly music?
0:07:27 > 0:07:31No, we don't. I'm in several bands at the moment.
0:07:31 > 0:07:36- Yes, playing different sorts of music in different bands.- What kinds?
0:07:36 > 0:07:42I'm in a corporate-cum-wedding band, so we play all normal stuff that DJs might play at a wedding.
0:07:42 > 0:07:47- I'm in a rock band and a sort of indie band as well.- Wow!
0:07:47 > 0:07:52- That might cover you well for this category. Do you want to go first or second?- First, please.
0:07:56 > 0:08:02OK, Rob, good luck. What was the title of LeAnn Rimes' first UK hit single in 1998?
0:08:07 > 0:08:11What was the title of LeAnn Rimes' first UK hit single in 1998?
0:08:11 > 0:08:16Well, I know the name and I can remember 1998,
0:08:16 > 0:08:18but I'm not exactly sure.
0:08:18 > 0:08:23How Do I Live is jumping out at me a little bit,
0:08:23 > 0:08:28so I'm going to go for How Do I Live, please.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Right answer. Well done. Good start.
0:08:33 > 0:08:39Chris, the group Lordi won the Eurovision Song Contest in 2006 with the song Hard Rock what?
0:08:43 > 0:08:46The group Lordi won the Eurovision Song Contest in 2006
0:08:46 > 0:08:48with the song Hard Rock what?
0:08:48 > 0:08:51It's Hard Rock Hallelujah, brother!
0:08:51 > 0:08:53- LAUGHTER - Yes, thank you.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Hallelujah is correct. OK, back to Rob.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00What is the title of the song popularised by Johnny Mathis
0:09:00 > 0:09:06that begins with the lines, "Look at me, I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree"?
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Once again, I know Johnny Mathis.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15I'm not familiar with some of the song names.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19I can envisage some of those album covers that my dad had,
0:09:19 > 0:09:22so it's a complete guess,
0:09:22 > 0:09:26- but I'm going to go for Misty, please.- Misty?- Yes.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30Thinking of the music you play, this would be more for the wedding band?
0:09:30 > 0:09:35- Possibly.- Or maybe the indie band. You could do a different version.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39"Look at me, I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree" in Misty, yes.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42Well done.
0:09:42 > 0:09:48Chris, which Manchester band sold out their three 2012 reunion concerts at Heaton Park
0:09:48 > 0:09:50in just over an hour?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57I seem to remember reading somewhere
0:09:57 > 0:10:01The Stone Roses were getting back together, so it's The Stone Roses.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Yes, that's correct.
0:10:03 > 0:10:07Lovely, evenly balanced quizzing so far.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Which British composer described himself
0:10:10 > 0:10:14as having been born with a very small silver spoon in his mouth?
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Once again, I can remember the quote
0:10:20 > 0:10:23and I've certainly read it or heard it somewhere.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Quite recently maybe.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30I'm not a large fan of classical music.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34I do follow some Frank Zappa classical, but that's about it.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37I'm going to take a complete guess, I'm afraid,
0:10:37 > 0:10:39and I'm going to go for Edward Elgar.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43Elgar, a small silver spoon in his mouth at birth.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47It's your first incorrect answer. Chris, do you know it?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49It sounds like Benjamin Britten.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Other Eggheads, have you any idea(?)
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Even I can get it now! It's Ralph Vaughan Williams.
0:10:57 > 0:11:02OK, Chris, the gravikord, developed in the late 20th century,
0:11:02 > 0:11:05is usually described as what type of musical instrument?
0:11:08 > 0:11:12You can't really develop a harp because a harp's a harp.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15There's not much you can do with a xylophone,
0:11:15 > 0:11:19but there's all sorts of technical possibilities in the organ,
0:11:19 > 0:11:21- so I'll go with organ.- Organ, OK...
0:11:21 > 0:11:26Apparently, they've done it with a harp, the answer we're looking for.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30It's all square. We go, for the first time, to Sudden Death, Rob,
0:11:30 > 0:11:32and take away those options.
0:11:32 > 0:11:37Here's your question. Who was the first British female solo artist
0:11:37 > 0:11:41to have an album enter the UK chart at number one?
0:11:41 > 0:11:44Who was the first British female solo artist
0:11:44 > 0:11:47to have an album enter the UK chart at number one?
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Well, I've got a few ideas.
0:11:51 > 0:11:56But I think it was about... about my youth,
0:11:56 > 0:11:59so I'm going to go for a lady called Gabrielle.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02- Gabrielle?- Yes.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05No, it's not. Any idea, Chris?
0:12:05 > 0:12:09- If it's recently, it must be Adele. - No. Other Eggheads?
0:12:09 > 0:12:14- I'd have gone for Kate Bush. I think it's further back.- Dave, you have it. Say it again.- Kate Bush.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18Kate Bush, yeah, with... Do you know the album?
0:12:18 > 0:12:22- It's a tough one.- It's a tough one. It's either Kick Inside or Lionheart.
0:12:22 > 0:12:27- No, Never For Ever.- Never For Ever. - 1979, you were right about that.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Well done, Dave, but it counts for nothing.
0:12:30 > 0:12:35It means Rob didn't get a point there. Chris, a chance then to go through again.
0:12:35 > 0:12:42Which 20th century classical conductor was born in 1912 in Budapest as Gyorgy Stern?
0:12:42 > 0:12:49Gyorgy Stern. Which 20th century classical conductor was born in 1912 in Budapest as Gyorgy Stern?
0:12:50 > 0:12:561912, Budapest, he's Hungarian, so it must be Sir Georg Solti.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59It's the right answer. Well done, Chris.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02Bad luck, Rob. No place for you in the final round.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06Would you both come back and join your teams?
0:13:06 > 0:13:12The Sutton Leprechauns have lost two brains now from the final round. The Eggheads haven't lost any.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15And our third head-to-head today is Science.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Who from the Leprechauns would like to play this?
0:13:17 > 0:13:22- Jonathan, James or Matt? - Who's going to go for Science? - I don't mind going for it.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27- Do you think? We're two down, only a couple more to go. - Do you want to have a go?
0:13:27 > 0:13:31- I'll go for it.- OK.- I'll go for it. - OK, Jonathan?
0:13:31 > 0:13:35- Yeah.- OK, Jonathan. And who would you choose from the Eggheads?
0:13:35 > 0:13:39Kevin and Chris have played, so you have Daphne, Judith or Dave.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Can I go with...? I'll go with Judith, please.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45LAUGHTER
0:13:45 > 0:13:49- You've been invited to play, Judith. Would you like to?- I... Yes.
0:13:49 > 0:13:54It's Jonathan from the Sutton Leprechauns versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:13:54 > 0:13:59To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.
0:13:59 > 0:14:04Jonathan, you choose, as always. Would you like to go first or second?
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Can I go second this time?
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Judith, you start. Here you go.
0:14:12 > 0:14:18Much used in smartphone terminology, the term "app" is a shortened form of which word?
0:14:21 > 0:14:24I think that might be application.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Yes, indeed. Application.
0:14:27 > 0:14:33Which, of course, is what you all show in abundance to your quizzing tasks, Eggheads.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Your first question, Jonathan.
0:14:35 > 0:14:40What name is given to the type of bumblebee that forces its way into a hive
0:14:40 > 0:14:43and kills or evicts the resident queen?
0:14:47 > 0:14:49OK, I've never heard that before,
0:14:49 > 0:14:54but I can only assume that it follows the same principle
0:14:54 > 0:14:57of what a cuckoo would do.
0:14:57 > 0:15:01A cuckoo obviously nests in other people's nests,
0:15:01 > 0:15:03so I'd go with cuckoo probably.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06It's the right answer, yes. Well done.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12Judith, in the television broadcast acronym PAL,
0:15:12 > 0:15:15for what does the letter L stand?
0:15:17 > 0:15:21I'm trying to think what the letters P and A stand for too.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25PAL, oh, what is it?
0:15:25 > 0:15:27I can't remember what it is!
0:15:29 > 0:15:32I think it's either Location or Line.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36It's a question of making up my mind between the two.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40I think I'm going to go for Line.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43OK, Line for the L in PAL...
0:15:43 > 0:15:47- It's the right answer, Judith. Well done.- What's the P and A?
0:15:47 > 0:15:51You're absolutely anticipating me putting this very question
0:15:51 > 0:15:54to your colleagues in the studio.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Phase Alternation.
0:15:56 > 0:16:00- Phase...?- Alternation. - Phase Alternation Line.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04- I don't think I ever knew that. - No. I don't think I did.
0:16:04 > 0:16:08We're familiar with PAL... Line will do, right.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Your second question, Jonathan.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14What are ossicles, found in the middle ear?
0:16:16 > 0:16:20Ossicles... I don't know the answer straight out to this one.
0:16:20 > 0:16:25Obviously, I know the ear has got a lot of small bones within it.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Membranes...
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Nerves...
0:16:31 > 0:16:35I'm going to have to go with my gut feeling
0:16:35 > 0:16:38which is going to be small bones.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40Well done. It's the right answer, yes.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44Ossicles - got a bone root there in the "os".
0:16:44 > 0:16:46- Yeah.- So, well done.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48It's all square.
0:16:48 > 0:16:53Judith, to which island country is the klinki pine tree native?
0:16:55 > 0:16:58There isn't a northern island there.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02I always think of pine trees as being rather a northern thing.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04But they're all kind of tropical.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07Percentages would say Madagascar
0:17:07 > 0:17:10because it's got so many different things in it -
0:17:10 > 0:17:13animals and vegetation and whatnot.
0:17:13 > 0:17:17So, I'm going to have a bet on Madagascar.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21OK, a bet on Madagascar... Well, you've lost your bet.
0:17:21 > 0:17:25- It's Papua New Guinea.- Oh.- Papua New Guinea for the klinki pine tree.
0:17:25 > 0:17:31Jonathan, a chance to get into the final round. Valhalla, one of the largest impact craters
0:17:31 > 0:17:34in the Solar System, is on a moon of which planet?
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Valhalla...
0:17:38 > 0:17:42I know Jupiter has got a lot of storms,
0:17:42 > 0:17:44but I'm not sure if it's got craters.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Mercury, Saturn...
0:17:50 > 0:17:55I'm not by any means certain on exactly which one it is,
0:17:55 > 0:17:58but I'm going to go with...
0:18:00 > 0:18:02I'm going to go with Jupiter.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06OK, Jupiter you think for Valhalla...
0:18:06 > 0:18:08It's the right answer.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Brilliant. Well done.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14Which moon, to be specific, Eggheads?
0:18:14 > 0:18:17- The biggest is Ganymede.- No.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20- Io?- No.- No, that's volcanic. Europa?
0:18:20 > 0:18:23- No. - LAUGHTER
0:18:23 > 0:18:27- I'd have loved this...- Callisto? - Callisto, yes. That doesn't matter.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31What does matter, Jonathan, is you're in the final round.
0:18:31 > 0:18:36You took on an Egghead and emerged triumphant which means you will play in today's final round.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40Jonathan and Judith, please come back and join your teams.
0:18:40 > 0:18:46Sutton Leprechauns have lost two brains from the final round while the Eggheads have lost one.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50The next subject is Politics. Who will be playing in this round?
0:18:50 > 0:18:56- Who would you like to take on?- Shall I have a go on this one and leave you for the final?- Yeah, go on.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59- The sacrificial lamb.- You'll do it.
0:18:59 > 0:19:05- Dermot, I'll have a go. - OK, and who would you like to play from the Eggheads, James?
0:19:05 > 0:19:07- Dave might be the best bet.- Yeah.
0:19:07 > 0:19:11- I think Dave.- I'll try my luck with Dave, please, Dermot.
0:19:11 > 0:19:16Trying your luck with Dave... Let's have you both into the question room, please.
0:19:16 > 0:19:21- James, it's your choice. Do you want to go first or second? - I'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:19:24 > 0:19:29It's James versus Dave. Here is your first question on Politics, James.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31During the 2012 Olympic Games,
0:19:31 > 0:19:36which politician described himself as "a prat who gets stuck in a zip wire"?
0:19:38 > 0:19:42During the 2012 Olympic Games, which politician described himself
0:19:42 > 0:19:45as "a prat who gets stuck in a zip wire"?
0:19:45 > 0:19:48I think John Prescott was a bit of a boxer.
0:19:48 > 0:19:52I don't think it was Jeremy Hunt. It was the man waving the flag.
0:19:52 > 0:19:56- I think the answer was Boris Johnson. - Yeah, well done.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02Which politician has acquired the unfortunate nickname Jabba the Cut?
0:20:05 > 0:20:10Which politician has acquired the unfortunate nickname Jabba the Cut?
0:20:10 > 0:20:14Of those three, the one it resonates most with,
0:20:14 > 0:20:18not for appearance reasons, I won't be saying that,
0:20:18 > 0:20:22but the Communities Minister Eric Pickles has been involved
0:20:22 > 0:20:26in a lot of town hall things, so I'll have to go with Eric Pickles.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29It is the right answer. And, James,
0:20:29 > 0:20:34Federico Franco became President of which South American country in 2012?
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Hmm... I think this is going to have to be a complete guess
0:20:40 > 0:20:42because I've not heard of this.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Colombia, Paraguay, Venezuela...
0:20:46 > 0:20:49I think I'm going to guess with Venezuela.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51No, it's not. Do you know, Dave?
0:20:51 > 0:20:55- I'd have gone Colombia. - No, it's Paraguay.- All right.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57OK, Dave, your question.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59Who was quoted in 1995 as saying,
0:20:59 > 0:21:04"If I want to knock a story off the front page, I just change my hairstyle"?
0:21:07 > 0:21:12Right, I don't think it's something that Thatcher would say.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15It doesn't resonate with Hillary Clinton
0:21:15 > 0:21:18as her husband would be more in the news then.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Now, what's bugging me
0:21:20 > 0:21:25is that Cherie Blair was famously pictured in 1997,
0:21:25 > 0:21:27coming out of 10 Downing Street
0:21:27 > 0:21:31with her, um...night clothes on,
0:21:31 > 0:21:36obviously not looking well after her husband's election victory.
0:21:36 > 0:21:41I'll go with Cherie Blair, but it's not with a great deal of confidence.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44No, not Cherie Blair. It is Hillary Clinton.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46No, I wouldn't have got that.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48This is your question, James.
0:21:48 > 0:21:52In the early 20th century, the Relugas Compact was the name given
0:21:52 > 0:21:55to a failed attempt to oust which politician?
0:22:00 > 0:22:03I've never heard of that before in my life.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08This is going to have to be another guess.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11I think I'll have to guess with Arthur Balfour.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15Arthur Balfour... It's incorrect.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17- Eggheads?- Probably Lloyd George.
0:22:17 > 0:22:22- No.- OK. - It's Henry Campbell-Bannerman.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26- How is that spelt?- It's Relu... R-E-L-U-G-A-S.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30- Anyone heard of it?- No. - No, no-one heard of it.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Well, it's a new one on the Eggheads.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35No disgrace getting that one wrong, James.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38But, Dave, if you get this, you win.
0:22:38 > 0:22:43Launched in 2011, the 2020 Group is made up of MPs from which party?
0:22:46 > 0:22:49I don't know the answer to this, but all I can go on
0:22:49 > 0:22:52is that around that time,
0:22:52 > 0:22:57there was a lot of backbench discontent within the Conservatives,
0:22:57 > 0:22:59so that's going to be my answer.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00Conservative...
0:23:00 > 0:23:05It's the right answer. You are through, Dave. Well done.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09James, our Egghead beat you, so you won't be in the final round.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12James and Dave, please come back and join your teams.
0:23:12 > 0:23:17This is what we've been playing towards - the final round which is General Knowledge.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:23:20 > 0:23:26won't be allowed to take part in this round, so James, Darren and Rob from Sutton Leprechauns
0:23:26 > 0:23:30and Judith from the Eggheads, would you leave the studio?
0:23:31 > 0:23:35OK, Jonathan and Matt, you're playing to win the Sutton Leprechauns £2,000.
0:23:35 > 0:23:42Kevin, Dave, Daphne and Chris, you're playing for something money can't buy, the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:42 > 0:23:48I'll ask each team three questions in turn, all General Knowledge, and you are allowed to confer as well.
0:23:48 > 0:23:55So, Sutton Leprechauns, the question is, are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:23:55 > 0:24:00- Jonathan and Matt, do you want to go first or second?- First, yeah? - Yeah.- Yeah, we'll go first.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08OK, first question coming right up.
0:24:08 > 0:24:13What is the name of the gang to which John Travolta's character belongs in the 1978 film Grease?
0:24:17 > 0:24:19What is the name of the gang
0:24:19 > 0:24:23to which John Travolta's character belongs in the 1978 film Grease?
0:24:23 > 0:24:27OK, we're pretty comfortable with this one. It's the T-Birds.
0:24:27 > 0:24:31T-Birds is the right answer, yeah. Eggheads,
0:24:31 > 0:24:34according to the saying, the road to hell is paved with what?
0:24:38 > 0:24:42According to the saying, the road to hell is paved with what?
0:24:42 > 0:24:45It's paved with good intentions.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48It's the right answer.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50Sutton Leprechauns,
0:24:50 > 0:24:56the island of Elba, famously once the home of Napoleon Bonaparte, is a part of which European country?
0:24:59 > 0:25:02- I think...- I don't know the answer to that one.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06I think it's in the Mediterranean which isn't much help,
0:25:06 > 0:25:10- but I think it might be Italy.- It's the Mediterranean.- I'm not certain.
0:25:10 > 0:25:14- I can imagine it being an Italian-type place.- Happy with that?
0:25:14 > 0:25:18- I'm happy to go with that. - We're not certain on this one,
0:25:18 > 0:25:20but we're going to go for Italy.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23OK, Italy for Elba... It's the right answer.
0:25:26 > 0:25:32Eggheads, who plays the role of baddie Jean Vilain in the 2012 action film The Expendables 2?
0:25:37 > 0:25:39- Jean-Claude Van Damme?- Van Damme.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42A French speaker playing a French-speaking villain.
0:25:42 > 0:25:46Dolph Lundgren's in it, but he's one of Stallone's...
0:25:46 > 0:25:51- I haven't seen it, but he's one of Stallone's crew.- Yeah.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54I don't know if Steven Seagal is part of it,
0:25:54 > 0:25:58- but I'm sure it's Jean-Claude Van Damme.- Van Damme, yeah.- Yeah.
0:25:58 > 0:26:03That is Jean-Claude Van Damme.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07Jean-Claude Van Damme. It's the right answer, Eggheads. Two apiece.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09And Leprechauns...
0:26:09 > 0:26:15Who wrote the novel The Bridge Over The River Kwai on which the Oscar-winning 1957 film was based?
0:26:19 > 0:26:21- Any ideas?- No idea whatsoever. - Nor me.
0:26:21 > 0:26:25It's something I feel I should know, but I don't think I do.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28Wouk, Landon or Boulle.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31I've got an inkling about Landon, but...
0:26:31 > 0:26:33Yeah?
0:26:33 > 0:26:35It would be a complete guess.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38- Shall we go with that? - Straight down the middle.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42We're guessing, Dermot. We'll guess for Christopher Landon.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44OK, Christopher Landon.
0:26:44 > 0:26:48Rather stumped by this one, having a guess at Landon.
0:26:48 > 0:26:52- Eggheads, what do you think? - Pierre Boulle.- Boulle.- Boulle.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56It is Pierre Boulle. So, nothing there and a chance for the Eggheads.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00Eggheads, shortly before dying in 211 AD,
0:27:00 > 0:27:03which Roman emperor is said to have instructed his sons
0:27:03 > 0:27:08to rule together, enrich the soldiers and forget about everybody else?
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Septimius Severus.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21It's Septimius Severus.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26Daphne, you have such a lovely smile. So cruel!
0:27:26 > 0:27:28It's the right answer. You've won.
0:27:34 > 0:27:38Great quizzing. It just came down to the last question for each of you
0:27:38 > 0:27:41and they know their Roman history pretty well.
0:27:41 > 0:27:46Thanks very much for coming along to play the Eggheads and that goes
0:27:46 > 0:27:51for those of you that didn't win the head-to-heads, sitting quietly in the question room.
0:27:51 > 0:27:57I know you won't stay quiet for long. Get those leprechaun costumes back on and keep raising the money.
0:27:57 > 0:28:03Those Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them and they still reign supreme over quizland.
0:28:03 > 0:28:08I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £2,000 and the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:11 > 0:28:17Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20£3,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
