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.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:22 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:26 > 0:00:29pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34And challenging our resident quiz champions today
0:00:34 > 0:00:36are the Parry Band from Kent.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38This family team are all extremely musical
0:00:38 > 0:00:42and often get together to perform on stage. Let's meet them.
0:00:42 > 0:00:47Hi. I'm David. I'm 55 and I'm a chief executive.
0:00:47 > 0:00:51Hi. I'm Andrew. I'm 25 and I'm a music teacher.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55Hello. I'm Jonathan. I'm 27 and I'm an account manager.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi. I'm Sarah. I'm 21 and I'm a medical student.
0:00:59 > 0:01:04Hi. I'm Carol. I'm 53 and I'm a speech and language therapist.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Welcome to you, Parry Band.
0:01:06 > 0:01:11- You all play in the band.- Indeed we do, yes.- What kind of music?
0:01:11 > 0:01:13We can play almost any music, I think.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16We do it to order. We've got some classical training,
0:01:16 > 0:01:18we enjoy a bit of jazz but we do '60s, '70s
0:01:18 > 0:01:21- and even contemporary stuff, Coldplay, whatever.- OK.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25- Do you perform for audiences or for yourselves?- We play for birthdays,
0:01:25 > 0:01:28for weddings, we play in church occasionally as well, yeah.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32Wow! Fantastic stuff. Do you do any quizzing together as well?
0:01:32 > 0:01:34We do a certain amount of quizzing.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37It's probably more within the family at Christmas.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41But we do watch Eggheads and we've had a challenge from our sofas
0:01:41 > 0:01:44occasionally as a team and there are five of us, so we thought, "Great!"
0:01:44 > 0:01:46- And now here you are doing it for real.- We are.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Well, let's see how it goes because
0:01:48 > 0:01:51every day there is £1,000 cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:54 > 0:01:56the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58So, Parry Band, the Eggheads have won the last six games,
0:01:58 > 0:02:02which means £7,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:02 > 0:02:08Look what's come up first. The first head-to-head battle is on Music.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Who would like to play this?
0:02:10 > 0:02:14We'll have to get our resident music teacher to do this one, I think.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Who are we going to challenge?
0:02:16 > 0:02:18- What do you reckon? - What about Barry, do you think?
0:02:18 > 0:02:23- Yeah.- Barry, what do you think? I'll go for Barry
0:02:23 > 0:02:25- and you can take on Judith later on.- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:02:25 > 0:02:30- I think I'll take on Barry.- OK. A well-oiled plan being put in place.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34Let's see how oiled it stays during the course of the game.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38To kick-off, it's going to be Andrew and Barry playing the Music round.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Could you both please go to the Question Room?
0:02:41 > 0:02:45So, Andrew, you were the obvious choice for this as a music teacher.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48I guess so, yeah. Music teacher.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51I did music at university. It means, if I slip up, it'll be embarrassing.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54But, there we go, you've got to do it, haven't you?
0:02:54 > 0:02:55What do you play in the band?
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Drums mainly. I'm the drummer. Hence the hair.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01A little bit of clarinet if we're doing
0:03:01 > 0:03:03the jazz numbers, the slower numbers, as well.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07OK. Well, let's put that music knowledge to the test, shall we?
0:03:07 > 0:03:11- Would you like to go first or second?- I will go first, please.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17OK. Good luck, Andrew. First question is this.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20What was the title of the official Diamond Jubilee song
0:03:20 > 0:03:23written by Gary Barlow and Andrew Lloyd Webber,
0:03:23 > 0:03:26which topped the UK Singles Chart in June 2012?
0:03:28 > 0:03:31What was the title of the official Diamond Jubilee song
0:03:31 > 0:03:34written by Gary Barlow and Andrew Lloyd Webber,
0:03:34 > 0:03:38which topped the UK Singles Chart in June 2012?
0:03:38 > 0:03:41I think I know this. Interestingly,
0:03:41 > 0:03:44I teach in a primary school and they performed this
0:03:44 > 0:03:47at their end-of-year concert. I had to play the piano.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50They roped in the piano, drum and guitar teacher.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54- They had a choir. I think it is called Sing.- OK.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57Yes, well remembered. You'd have to get it after that.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59- Right, yes. Sing. - Go on. Played, And.
0:03:59 > 0:04:03Well, Barry, which two characters
0:04:03 > 0:04:06sing a song called Anything You Can Do in a stage musical?
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Which two characters sing a song called
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Anything You Can Do in a stage musical?
0:04:19 > 0:04:23It's an excellent song. It's an early example of feminism on the stage.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26I seem to remember them singing it in Western outfits,
0:04:26 > 0:04:28so it's Annie Oakley and Frank Butler.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31And the musical is?
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Annie Get Your Gun.- Yes. It's the right answer. Well done, Barry.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Andrew, in Puccini's opera La Boheme,
0:04:38 > 0:04:42set in Paris, what is the occupation of the hero Rodolfo?
0:04:45 > 0:04:48In Puccini's opera La Boheme, set in Paris,
0:04:48 > 0:04:51what is the occupation of the hero Rodolfo?
0:04:51 > 0:04:55Now, opera is maybe not my strong point, unfortunately.
0:04:55 > 0:05:00But, set in Paris, um, so...
0:05:00 > 0:05:06It could be poetic in terms of French people maybe being poetic.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09But then, also, bell-ringer. I like the idea of that in an opera,
0:05:09 > 0:05:14that style of person being a hero. Maybe... I'll go for bell-ringer.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17OK. A bell-ringer. Paris.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21Like Quasimodo. It's not. No.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24- Not bell-ringer.- Never mind. - Do you know, Barry?
0:05:24 > 0:05:28It's one of my all-time-favourite operas. Rodolfo is a poet.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Yes. That's what you were thinking.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Andrew had considered that but opted instead for
0:05:33 > 0:05:36bell-ringer. So nothing there. And, Barry,
0:05:36 > 0:05:39in Plan B's song She Said,
0:05:39 > 0:05:42what are the first words that she said according to the lyrics?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48In Plan B's song She Said,
0:05:48 > 0:05:51what are the first words she said according to the lyrics?
0:05:51 > 0:05:54I think the only thing I know about Plan B
0:05:54 > 0:05:57was the artist's real name is Ben Drew.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00But I don't know this song. So this is an out-and-out guess
0:06:00 > 0:06:05- and I will go for "Tell me boy." - "Tell me boy." OK. Well,
0:06:05 > 0:06:09It's not. Let's see if Andrew knows. Get one back on you. Do you know?
0:06:09 > 0:06:13- I don't but maybe "It's strange boy."- No, it's "I love you boy."
0:06:13 > 0:06:18- Good job I didn't have that one. - No, you didn't. It stays all square.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Both failing on their second question.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23So, Andrew, third question.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Maddy Prior is best known as the lead singer of which folk group?
0:06:30 > 0:06:34Maddy Prior is best known as the lead singer of which folk group?
0:06:34 > 0:06:38Again, if it was an indie question maybe, that would've been good.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40But folk, again, I'm not too sure.
0:06:40 > 0:06:45I've heard of Steeleye Span and Fairport Convention.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Not too familiar with Bellowhead.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50I'm going to... Because I don't know exactly,
0:06:50 > 0:06:53I would've recognised the name of the Fairport Convention singer,
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- I'm going to go for Bellowhead. - OK. Bellowhead.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00Um, the other members of the band not agreeing, I don't think.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02- Not really sure, to be honest. - We know it's not that one.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05But we don't know if it's Fairport Convention or Steeleye Span.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09- It's Steeleye Span.- Yeah.- OK.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Barry's got a chance here.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13To get into the final round, who wrote the lyrics for
0:07:13 > 0:07:16the songs Thunderball and Diamonds Are Forever?
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Who wrote the lyrics for the songs
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Thunderball and Diamonds Are Forever?
0:07:24 > 0:07:29I don't think it was Leslie Bricusse. And I think Jackie Trent wrote,
0:07:29 > 0:07:32I think it was, more lyrics for soaps.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36- So I'm going to go for Don Black. - Don Black
0:07:36 > 0:07:39for Thunderball and Diamonds Are Forever.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43You may not be forever but you are appearing in the final round
0:07:43 > 0:07:46with that answer. It's correct, Barry, Don Black.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48It clinches you that place in the final round.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52Bad luck, Andrew. No place for you. Both come back and join your teams.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56As it stands, the Parry Band a bit smaller,
0:07:56 > 0:07:58lost one brain from the final round.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01The Eggheads haven't lost any. But we've only played one round,
0:08:01 > 0:08:04so we will play another one. And this is Science.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06- Who'd like to play this one? - What do you think?
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- Sarah, what do you reckon?- I think it might be Sarah.- Yeah, I reckon.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13- Our medical student. - It will have to be me this round.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16It has. Who would you like to play from the Eggheads?
0:08:16 > 0:08:18- It can't be Barry. - We're going to go for Dave.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Tremendous Knowledge Dave, if that's OK.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- Is that OK with you?- It's going to have to be, isn't it?- Exactly.
0:08:24 > 0:08:29Exactly. OK, let's have Sarah and Dave into the Question Room, please.
0:08:29 > 0:08:34- So, Sarah, you're a medical student. - I am, that's right, yep.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37What role do you play in the band?
0:08:37 > 0:08:39I do a little bit of backing vocals and keyboard.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42I do play the flute as well but only a little bit.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45All right. Well, medical student on Science,
0:08:45 > 0:08:48the same position as Andrew was, I suppose.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51Let's not dwell on it.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Would you like to go first or second?
0:08:53 > 0:08:55I'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01First question then, Sarah, and good luck. In biology,
0:09:01 > 0:09:04what term can be defined as a change
0:09:04 > 0:09:07in the genetic material of an organism?
0:09:09 > 0:09:13In biology, what term can be defined as a change
0:09:13 > 0:09:16in the genetic material of an organism?
0:09:16 > 0:09:20OK, Dermot. From biology at school, I think I should know this one.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- I think it's mutation. - Mutation is correct.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Hooray.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30And, Dave, which of these is an
0:09:30 > 0:09:33alternative name for the white rhinoceros?
0:09:38 > 0:09:42Which of these is an alternative name for the white rhinoceros?
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Never heard of this phrase at all.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48Everybody will know this.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50I won't.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53I've got no idea at all.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57- I'm going to go for the wide-eyed rhinoceros.- OK.
0:09:57 > 0:10:02Wide-eyed rhinoceros. There's a few Eggheads looking a little wide-eyed.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- I drew the short straw. - And they're going square-lipped.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08- Square-lipped?- It's what the answer is.- Never heard of it.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12No. No. You're saying everyone else will know. I've never heard of it.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15But you have, other Eggheads?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18- Yes.- Square-lipped rhino. OK.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Well, that fell very nicely for you, Sarah.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23It puts you into the lead after the opening questions.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Second question for a mighty lead if you get it.
0:10:26 > 0:10:31What type of tree is the plant known as Leylandii?
0:10:33 > 0:10:36What type of tree is the plant known as Leylandii?
0:10:36 > 0:10:40I know my dad will probably be sighing here.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Leylandii?
0:10:42 > 0:10:45It's going to have to be a bit of a guess.
0:10:45 > 0:10:50Um, but I will go for cypress.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53- Is your dad happy?- I'm fairly happy.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57- He's fairly happy because it's the right answer.- Yes!- Go on!- No way.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Well, two-nil.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02And you might not need to face another question.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- Might not.- Dave needs this. Diverticulitis
0:11:06 > 0:11:10is usually an inflammation in which part of the body?
0:11:12 > 0:11:16Diverticulitis is usually an inflammation in which
0:11:16 > 0:11:22part of the body? D-I-V-E-R-T-I-C-U-L-I-T-I-S.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24I'll go intestine.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27Ah, good, yes. It's the right answer.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Intestine is the right answer, well done.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34But Sarah goes straight into the final round with a correct answer.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38And it's this. Which part of the human brain
0:11:38 > 0:11:41contains a control centre that regulates
0:11:41 > 0:11:44body temperature and hunger and thirst?
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Which part of the human brain contains a control centre
0:11:52 > 0:11:55that regulates body temperature and hunger and thirst?
0:11:55 > 0:11:59I think I'm going to have to go for hypothalamus, Dermot.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02- You'd be in trouble if you got this wrong.- I know. I was worried.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06Booted out of the course. Well, you've booted Dave out of the game.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08- It's the right answer. - Played, Sarah.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12That did really fall very nicely for you.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15In actual fact, a biology question to start as well.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17OK. Well, you're in the final round.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20No place for Dave. Come back and join your teams.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25The Eggheads who hit the wrong note there, which means it's all square
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Parry Band and the Eggheads have lost one brain each.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Our next subject today is Film & Television.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33Who would like to take this one on from the remaining
0:12:33 > 0:12:36three players, who are David, Jonathan or Carol?
0:12:36 > 0:12:39- I'll go next. - Do you reckon?- That's OK.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43- I think you can do it. - I'll take this one, Dermot.- OK.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46- Who would you like to play from the Eggheads?- I'll play Judith.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50Let's have you into the Question Room, please, Judith and Jonathan.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54So, Jonathan, we're putting this band together now.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57You are what in the band?
0:12:57 > 0:13:02- I play lead guitar, Dermot.- OK. Well, playing solo here now against
0:13:02 > 0:13:06- your Egghead. Would you like to go first or second?- I'll go first.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13First on Film & Television. The song Wind Beneath My Wings
0:13:13 > 0:13:16was sung by Bette Midler on the soundtrack to which film?
0:13:20 > 0:13:23The song Wind Beneath My Wings
0:13:23 > 0:13:26was sung by Bette Midler on the soundtrack to which film?
0:13:26 > 0:13:29OK. Wind Beneath My Wings?
0:13:29 > 0:13:34Um, I'll be perfectly honest, I'm not entirely sure on this one.
0:13:34 > 0:13:40Um, and just really by the nature of the title,
0:13:40 > 0:13:43a slight guess, I'm going to go down the middle for Beaches.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47OK. Beaches. And Barry chuckling. Why so, Barry?
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- Because he's right. - Because it's the right answer.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Good guess.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54And, Judith,
0:13:54 > 0:13:57which former Emmerdale actress
0:13:57 > 0:14:00was named as the new Doctor Who companion in 2012?
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Which former Emmerdale actress
0:14:08 > 0:14:11was named as the new Doctor Who companion in 2012?
0:14:11 > 0:14:15I don't watch Emmerdale. And I don't watch Doctor Who either.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18And this has completely passed me by.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21So it's a guess.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24I don't know. Jenna-Louise Coleman.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27I suppose it's only fair that Jonathan started with a guess.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31- It's the right answer. Yes. - It's the magic right.- Yeah.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Jenna-Louise Coleman. OK. All square.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Jonathan, which county is the setting
0:14:37 > 0:14:40for the Only Fools And Horses spin-off The Green Green Grass?
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Which county is the setting for the Only Fools And Horses spin-off
0:14:45 > 0:14:48The Green Green Grass?
0:14:48 > 0:14:50OK. I used to watch the original series.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54I'll be honest, I wasn't even aware that there was a spin-off.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58Um, Green Green Grass. I grew up in Shropshire, it's a green place.
0:14:58 > 0:15:02But I can't really imagine a spin-off series would be set there.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05I guess there's certainly
0:15:05 > 0:15:10visions of the Yorkshire countryside being green.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12You could say the same about Devon, actually.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14I guess it rains quite a lot there.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18I'm going to have to go for North Yorkshire.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20OK. North Yorkshire. Well, as you
0:15:20 > 0:15:22went through them all, yeah,
0:15:22 > 0:15:24green, green grass, a lot of it in all of them.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Um, it's Shropshire.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30- Oh, dear.- Ah! - Shropshire.- Unlucky.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32It means you've got a chance, Judith, to go into the lead.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35Judith, "Make it so" is a phrase associated
0:15:35 > 0:15:38with which character from the Star Trek franchise?
0:15:42 > 0:15:44"Make it so" is a phrase associated
0:15:44 > 0:15:47with which character from the Star Trek franchise?
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Don't know that either.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Um... Oh!
0:15:52 > 0:15:56- You're not a Trekkie, then? - No. Um...
0:15:56 > 0:16:00- Well, I think it's James T Kirk. - OK.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04The original captain of the Starship Enterprise.
0:16:04 > 0:16:09- Other Eggheads? - Jean-Luc Picard.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12Jean-Luc Picard is "Make it so."
0:16:12 > 0:16:16But there we are. Stays all square. Jonathan,
0:16:16 > 0:16:21who played the title role in the 1949 film The History Of Mr Polly?
0:16:23 > 0:16:29Who played the title role in the 1949 film The History Of Mr Polly?
0:16:29 > 0:16:31The History Of Mr Polly?
0:16:31 > 0:16:35Um, again, that's quite tricky.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37I think I'm going to rule out Richard Attenborough
0:16:37 > 0:16:40on account of his directing work.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43I know, obviously, he may well have appeared in films.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47Dirk Bogarde is standing out there.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Maybe a little bit too obvious.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53But I'm probably going to go with it. I'll go for Dirk Bogarde.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55No, it's not. Bad luck.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59- Judith, any idea? - John Mills.- Yep. John Mills
0:16:59 > 0:17:01as Mr Polly. So...
0:17:01 > 0:17:03HG Wells, is it?
0:17:03 > 0:17:05- Yep. - And, um,
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Judith, the actress Dyan Cannon was married
0:17:08 > 0:17:11to which Hollywood legend in the 1960s?
0:17:14 > 0:17:15The actress Dyan Cannon
0:17:15 > 0:17:18was married to which Hollywood legend in the 1960s?
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Now that I funnily enough do know. It's Cary Grant.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Oh, dear. Yes, it's the right answer.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Bad luck, Jonathan.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29It means Judith has got through there.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31You got two wrong and she got one wrong.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34So she's in the final round. Both come back and join your teams.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38The Eggheads go into the lead.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Parry Band have lost two brains from the final round.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43The Eggheads have lost one.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Our last head-to-head before the final round is Geography.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48And David or Carol?
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- Who wants to play? - I think we're saving David
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- for the final round. - It's going to have to be me. Yeah.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- So, it will be Carol, I think. - All right, Carol,
0:17:57 > 0:18:00who would you like to play? Barry, Judith and Dave have played.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02So you can have Kevin or Pat.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04I think you're going to have to do Pat.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06- Yeah, I'll take Pat. - Pat?
0:18:06 > 0:18:11Carol and Pat contesting Geography. Into the Question Room, please.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15So, Carol, are you still in the band?
0:18:15 > 0:18:18Well, I don't tend to play very much any more these days.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20I used to play guitar with them a little bit.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23But it turned out that John was a lot better than me.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25So I let him get on with it.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- So, what do you do, then? - I try to keep them organised.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Find all the music that they've lost and that kind of thing.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34- And do a bit or roadieing, do you? - Yeah, carrying all their...
0:18:34 > 0:18:37- Oh, yeah.- All right.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40- Do you want to go first or second? - I'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Well, Carol, first question on Geography.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49What is the three-letter IATA airport code for Heathrow Airport?
0:18:53 > 0:18:58What is the three-letter IATA airport code for Heathrow Airport?
0:18:58 > 0:19:02Right. Um, I'm not 100% sure of this.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04They've all got the letters in that we're going to need.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08But I think that the L bit, the London, would come first.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11So I'm going to go for the LHR.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15Indeed, yes. LHR. London Heathrow.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17And, Pat,
0:19:17 > 0:19:21the resort of Great Yarmouth is on which major body of water?
0:19:24 > 0:19:27The resort of Great Yarmouth is on which major body of water?
0:19:27 > 0:19:32Well, it's on the very eastern side of East Anglia.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35And I think it's on the North Sea.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38You think, do you? Just a wild guess, is it?
0:19:38 > 0:19:41- I'm confident it's on the North Sea. - It's the right answer, yeah.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44OK. Right, Carol,
0:19:44 > 0:19:46second question. The Murchison Glacier
0:19:46 > 0:19:49is one of the largest in which country?
0:19:51 > 0:19:56The Murchison, M-U-R-C-H-I-S-O-N,
0:19:56 > 0:20:01the Murchison Glacier is one of the largest in which country?
0:20:01 > 0:20:04I don't think it sounds like Switzerland.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07That doesn't sound like a Swiss word.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09It probably is going to be Switzerland.
0:20:09 > 0:20:14I'm going to try and decide between New Zealand and Chile.
0:20:14 > 0:20:20And I think I'm going to take New Zealand.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22And you'd be right to do so.
0:20:22 > 0:20:23Come on.
0:20:23 > 0:20:28Pat, the city of Duluth, Minnesota,
0:20:28 > 0:20:30is situated on which of the Great Lakes?
0:20:33 > 0:20:35The city of Duluth, Minnesota,
0:20:35 > 0:20:38is situated on which of the Great Lakes?
0:20:38 > 0:20:41It's D-U-L-U-T-H. Duluth, Minnesota.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43I think it's the birthplace of Bob Dylan.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47And I think it's on the extreme west of Lake Superior.
0:20:47 > 0:20:51I didn't know that. Birthplace of Bob Dylan? It's the right answer.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Lake Superior.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55OK, Carol,
0:20:55 > 0:21:00the Abruzzi Spur, named after an Italian nobleman,
0:21:00 > 0:21:03is a route of ascent up which mountain?
0:21:07 > 0:21:11The Abruzzi Spur, A-B-R-U-Z-Z-I,
0:21:11 > 0:21:15the Abruzzi Spur, named after an Italian nobleman,
0:21:15 > 0:21:17is a route of ascent up which mountain?
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Again, I don't know this.
0:21:19 > 0:21:24Um, and I'm not sure if the Italian nobleman
0:21:24 > 0:21:28is trying to help me or just confuse me.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Um, but I think I'm going to say, and it is a guess,
0:21:31 > 0:21:34- I'm going to say Mont Blanc.- OK.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36You're going on help, then.
0:21:36 > 0:21:41That being nearest to Italy, I see where you're thinking.
0:21:41 > 0:21:46But it's not the right answer. It's not Mont Blanc. Do you know, Pat?
0:21:46 > 0:21:48- I think it's K2.- It is K2.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50So a chance for Pat here.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Which Welsh town is thought to have
0:21:53 > 0:21:57been built on the site of a Roman fort called Blestium?
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Which Welsh town is thought to have been built
0:22:01 > 0:22:05on the site of a Roman fort called Blestium? B-L-E-S-T-I-U-M.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08I haven't heard of this Roman fort.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10Blestium?
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Mold is towards the top. Monmouth in the middle.
0:22:14 > 0:22:19And Montgomery, I think, is middle somewhere.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23I'm a bit stumped here. No.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25It's guess time, I'm afraid.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27- I'll go down the middle, Monmouth. - Monmouth
0:22:27 > 0:22:31for Blestium, a Roman fort.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35- It is in Monmouth.- Oh, no!
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Oh, groans from the Parry Band.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Bad luck, Carol. A guess there knocking you out.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44But knocked out you are. Both come back and join your teams.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48And so, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51It's time for the final round, which as always is General Knowledge.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55Those who lost your head-to-heads can't take part in this round.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59So, Andrew, Jonathan and Carol from the Parry Band
0:22:59 > 0:23:02and Dave from the Eggheads, would you leave the studio now, please?
0:23:04 > 0:23:08So, David and Sarah, you're playing to win the Parry Band £7,000.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Barry, Pat, Judith and Kevin, you're playing
0:23:11 > 0:23:13for something which money can't buy,
0:23:13 > 0:23:15the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17I ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19This time, the questions are General Knowledge
0:23:19 > 0:23:21and you are allowed to confer.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23So, Parry Band, the question is -
0:23:23 > 0:23:27are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:23:27 > 0:23:30David and Sarah, would you like to go first or second?
0:23:30 > 0:23:32I think we'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Well, good luck. Here's your first question.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41In modern language, to whom is a person referring
0:23:41 > 0:23:43if they mention their sibling?
0:23:46 > 0:23:48In modern language, to whom is a person referring
0:23:48 > 0:23:50if they mention their sibling?
0:23:50 > 0:23:54- It might be brother and sister. - It could be.- Fairly straightforward.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57I think we'll go for brother or sister.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Rather appropriate, isn't it, given the composition of your team?
0:23:59 > 0:24:02It's the right answer, yes.
0:24:02 > 0:24:07And, Eggheads, what is the usual name for the condition
0:24:07 > 0:24:10in which an author is unable to produce new work?
0:24:13 > 0:24:15What is the usual name for the condition
0:24:15 > 0:24:18in which an author is unable to produce new work?
0:24:18 > 0:24:23There's writer's block there. That is writer's block.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26- Not getting quizzer's block there? - That can happen.- I know.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29- I've seen it. Seen all of you. - That can definitely happen.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Writer's block is the right answer.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Not this time, unfortunately, for the Parry Band.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38But let's hope it happens later on. Your second question.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42What is the nickname of the Jamaican athlete Yohan Blake?
0:24:45 > 0:24:48What is the nickname of the Jamaican athlete Yohan Blake?
0:24:49 > 0:24:52- Have you come across Yohan Blake? - I haven't, no.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56- No. Was he an Olympian, do you think, perhaps?- Could well have been.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01I don't know what sport he took part in either. But I just...
0:25:01 > 0:25:06- I'm thinking Beanpole. - Are you? I'm thinking The Beast.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08- I don't think it will be The Boy. - No.- That wouldn't make sense.
0:25:08 > 0:25:14Jamaican. What sort of parlance would they have in Jamaica for nicknames?
0:25:14 > 0:25:18- Shall we go with The Beast? - Yeah, you go with... Yeah.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22- We're guessing but we'll go with The Beast.- The Beast.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24You should see behind you. They're doing his trademark.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27He was rather overshadowed by...
0:25:27 > 0:25:31He's a colleague of Usain Bolt in the sprinting.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34And he is The Beast. It's the right answer. You got it. The Beast.
0:25:34 > 0:25:38It means the Eggheads need this to draw level.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41The German word "Gelb" is usually translated
0:25:41 > 0:25:43into English as which colour?
0:25:44 > 0:25:47The German word "Gelb", G-E-L-B,
0:25:47 > 0:25:50is usually translated into English as which colour?
0:25:50 > 0:25:52Yellow.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Gelb is yellow.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57It's the right answer. Eggheads know their German. OK.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59Back to you. Let's hope you don't have to guess on this one.
0:25:59 > 0:26:06And it's this. Which 19th-century author produced lurid tales
0:26:06 > 0:26:08under the name AM Barnard?
0:26:12 > 0:26:16Which 19th-century author produced lurid tales under the name
0:26:16 > 0:26:19AM Barnard?
0:26:19 > 0:26:22B-A-R-N-A-R-D. AM Barnard.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Not Louisa May Alcott, she did Little Women.
0:26:24 > 0:26:28- That wouldn't be lurid tales.- I'm relying on my daughter for this one.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30- Lurid tales?- Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.- She is.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34Elizabeth Barrett Browning? I really don't know.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36- Shall we go for Elizabeth Barrett Browning?- I don't know.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39Yeah. Let's go with Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
0:26:39 > 0:26:43OK. Elizabeth Barrett Browning as AM Barnard for the lurid tales.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45A pseudonym.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49- Well, yes, it is wrong. It's Louisa May Alcott.- Oh, no!
0:26:49 > 0:26:54- That was me. - Probably why she assumed that name
0:26:54 > 0:26:58- to disguise the fact she was writing such sweet novels elsewhere.- Yeah.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01OK, well, the Eggheads have got a chance to win the game here.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03What was the codename for the Allied invasion
0:27:03 > 0:27:06of southern France in August 1944?
0:27:10 > 0:27:13What was the codename for the Allied invasion
0:27:13 > 0:27:16of southern France in August 1944?
0:27:16 > 0:27:19- Dragoon?- Yeah. Yeah.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22They had a couple of different codenames at different times.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25But the one under which it finally took place was Dragoon.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28That is Operation Dragoon, Dermot.
0:27:28 > 0:27:33A rather under-remembered, if that's a phrase, by history
0:27:33 > 0:27:36because it was focused on D-Day and the Allied advance further north.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38What was going on in southern France?
0:27:38 > 0:27:43In the middle of August, by which time the break out from Normandy
0:27:43 > 0:27:46was on the stocks, it hadn't quite happened yet,
0:27:46 > 0:27:49they landed on the southern French coast
0:27:49 > 0:27:51and worked their way up the Rhone Valley.
0:27:51 > 0:27:55It was reasonably heavy fighting but not in comparison
0:27:55 > 0:27:59with what was going on in Normandy, so it tended to get overshadowed.
0:27:59 > 0:28:03OK. And the answer is... I think you know what you're going to hear.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05It is the right answer. Eggheads, you've won.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14Bad luck, Parry Band. We hope you've enjoyed yourself.
0:28:14 > 0:28:18We've loved having you here, talking music and quizzing.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20Keep those shirts for the next time you appear.
0:28:20 > 0:28:24It's a good look, isn't it? Thank you very much for playing.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28Their winning streak continues.
0:28:28 > 0:28:32You won't be going home with the £7,000, which means
0:28:32 > 0:28:35the money rolls over to the next show. Eggheads, congratulations.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38Who will beat you? Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:38 > 0:28:40have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:40 > 0:28:44£8,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
