0:00:04 > 0:00:08'These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11'Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15'arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20'The question is, can they be beaten?'
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35And taking on the awesome might of our quiz champions today
0:00:35 > 0:00:38are The Garden House Quizzers. This team of friends
0:00:38 > 0:00:41all enjoy taking on the quiz machines in their local pub,
0:00:41 > 0:00:44The Garden House, in Birmingham. Let's meet them.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Hello, my name's Jeremy, I'm 51 years old
0:00:47 > 0:00:49and I'm an electronics design engineer.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53Hello, I'm Matthew, I'm 51 and I'm a vicar.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hello, my name's Chandar, I'm 50 years old
0:00:55 > 0:00:57and I'm a telecoms manager.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01Hello, I'm Philip, I'm 56 years of age and I'm a company director.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Hello, I'm Jonathan, I'm 51 and I work in retail.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09Welcome to you, Garden House Quizzers. Tell me about the pub
0:01:09 > 0:01:12and its quiz machine, which is emptied of cash on a regular basis.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Well, we try to. We do our very best.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17But it just depends on the questions, of course.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19- Yeah.- And we've all quizzed together, as well,
0:01:19 > 0:01:22in various pubs, and done quizzes, but the actual Garden House
0:01:22 > 0:01:25- doesn't have a quiz, but we just play the quiz machine.- OK.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29- What's the Garden House like? Where it is?- It's just south of Birmingham
0:01:29 > 0:01:34and it does food and good real ale, so we're all happy.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36That should be good for a free pint. A plug on TV.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39All right, Garden House Quizzers, let's start.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43Every day, there's £1,000 in cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51Garden House Quizzers, the Eggheads have won the last three games,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54which means £4,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:01:54 > 0:01:59And our first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Film & TV.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Who wants to start us off with Film & Television?
0:02:01 > 0:02:05- I think you had me down for Film & TV.- Yeah. Er, Chandar, I think.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07OK, Chandar. And which Egghead?
0:02:07 > 0:02:10Any one of those, opening round.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14- Who should we take on?- Try Barry? - Yeah. We'll go for Barry.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18All right. It's going to be Chandar and Barry contesting the opening
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Film & Television round. Into the question room, please.
0:02:23 > 0:02:27- So, Chandar, do you want to go first or second?- I'll go first.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34OK, Chandar, phrases such as "Well jel"
0:02:34 > 0:02:38meaning very jealous, were popularised by which TV programme?
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Well, this is three programmes,
0:02:45 > 0:02:49I'm not really a great watcher of any of them,
0:02:49 > 0:02:53but just trying to eliminate, er, a few of them.
0:02:53 > 0:02:58Newsnight may be something it would not have been popularised in.
0:02:58 > 0:03:03But I'm going to go straight down to the right.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Strictly Come Dancing is my answer.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09OK, Strictly Come Dancing with "Well jel," very jealous.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12Yeah, I can see dancers being jealous of each other.
0:03:12 > 0:03:17It's not. The Only Way Is Essex, Chandar. The Only Way Is Essex.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20So, let's see how Barry does with his first question.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Sonny Hammond, the son of an Australian park ranger,
0:03:23 > 0:03:26was the human hero of which children's TV series?
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Ah, well, Daktari was set in East Africa
0:03:31 > 0:03:34and it famously featured Clarence, the cross-eyed lion.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36I can't recall The White Horses,
0:03:36 > 0:03:39but Skippy was obviously an Australian programme
0:03:39 > 0:03:42about kangaroos, so it must be Skippy.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44The bush kangaroo. That lovely song.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Sonny Hammond, they left out his brother, Richard,
0:03:47 > 0:03:51who was in it, as well. Skippy is the right answer.
0:03:51 > 0:03:55Right, let's get you moving, Chandar. You need to get this.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58What was the name of the character played by Michael Gambon
0:03:58 > 0:04:01in the 1980s TV series The Singing Detective?
0:04:04 > 0:04:08Well, the first name that comes to mind
0:04:08 > 0:04:10was Philip Marlow.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14And, er, Sam Spade and Mike Hammer
0:04:14 > 0:04:19don't really come out, to be honest, so I'll go for Philip Marlow.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Well done, you are on the board. That is the right answer.
0:04:22 > 0:04:28Barry, in 2008, Stephanie Flanders took up what post at the BBC?
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Ooh. I don't know. That's an interesting one.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Perhaps I should know that one. Stephanie Flanders.
0:04:39 > 0:04:43Maybe it's sexist, but I don't think she probably was a Sports Editor.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45And she certainly wasn't the Economics Editor.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47So I'll go for Technology Editor.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- Well, Barry! - Oh, have I got this wrong?
0:04:50 > 0:04:54- Very, very, very badly wrong. - Oh, sorry, Steph.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Yes. Well, I'm not sure you'll be able to call her Steph now.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59- Oh, she was a sports editor!- No.- Oh.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02- It's not going to be Steph. Economics Editor!- Oh, gosh!
0:05:02 > 0:05:05- I wonder how that passed me by. - Much-praised, award-winning
0:05:05 > 0:05:09Economics Editor. And you won't know this, but with a famous dad.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12- Donald.- Oh, from Flanders and Swann! - From Flanders and Swann, yes.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16- Oh, gosh! Dear me! - That's her dad. OK.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Well, that's very good news for you, Chandar.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23It stays all square. And this third one for you.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26Who played Percy Jackson in the 2010 film
0:05:26 > 0:05:31Percy Jackson And The Olympians: The Lightning Thief?
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Well, it's not a film I've actually seen,
0:05:37 > 0:05:40but I'm going to have to go for a guess on this one
0:05:40 > 0:05:44and it's going to be, er...
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- ..Jaden Smith. - Jaden Smith as Percy Jackson.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51- No. Do you know, Barry? - Zachary Gordon?- No.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53It's Logan Lerman.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56All right, not doing too well, both of you.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00Let's hope you don't get this and take us into sudden death.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04For which of her films did Joan Crawford win an Academy Award?
0:06:07 > 0:06:10I think I'm on safer ground here. It was Mildred Pierce.
0:06:10 > 0:06:15Yeah, it is the right answer. Just squeezed you out there, Chandar.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Bad luck. You won't be in the final round. Come and join your teams.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24A close round, but as it stands, the Garden House Quizzers just lost out.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26They've lost one brain, the Eggheads haven't lost any.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30Our next subject is History. Who'd like to play this one?
0:06:30 > 0:06:32I think I was down for that, wasn't I?
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- I think you were. - I think I was. I better do it.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37- That'd be me, Dermot. - All right, Jeremy.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41And take on an Egghead, any one apart from Barry.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Right. Erm...
0:06:44 > 0:06:47I think I'll take on, erm, Chris, please.
0:06:47 > 0:06:52All right. It's going to be... Chris is all pleased, isn't he?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Playing History, you enjoy it, don't you?
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Let's have Jeremy and Chris into the question room, please.
0:06:57 > 0:07:01Right, Jeremy, do you want to go first or second?
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Erm, I think I'll go second, please, for a change.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12All right, then, that means the Eggheads, Chris, kicks off.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16Grace Archer's death on radio in 1955
0:07:16 > 0:07:20happened on the same night as what other major broadcasting first?
0:07:25 > 0:07:27It started with an advert for toothpaste
0:07:27 > 0:07:29and it was the launch of ITV.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32OK, the launch of ITV is the right answer.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35This was some kind of attempt, was it, to deflect attention?
0:07:35 > 0:07:37- Oh, absolutely. Grab the audiences, yeah.- OK.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Right, well, you've grabbed the point there.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Jeremy, what was the name of the cold pool in a Roman baths?
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Well, they've all got cold connotations. Erm...
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Frigidarium's probably too obvious.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57Er... Siberium...
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Right, OK.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02I think I'll rule out arcticarium.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06I think we're going to go for...
0:08:08 > 0:08:10..frigidarium.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12OK. I thought you were going to rule that out
0:08:12 > 0:08:14because your original analysis said it was too obvious.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Nah, I changed my mind after that. Go for the obvious one.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20Just as well you did. It is the right answer.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23Frigidarium, correct.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Chris, the site of the 1805 Battle of Austerlitz
0:08:27 > 0:08:29is in which modern-day country?
0:08:31 > 0:08:35Well, it's not Slovenia cos that's too far away to the southeast.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39I think the Czech Republic's a bit too far north, so it's Austria.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Austerlitz in Austria.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- No, it's the Czech Republic. - Oh, right.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48So very good news for you, Jeremy.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52In the 19th century in the West Virginia/Kentucky area,
0:08:52 > 0:08:56which family were famously involved in a feud with the Hatfields?
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Well, I've got really nothing to go on here,
0:09:02 > 0:09:05so it's going to have to be a bit of a guess,
0:09:05 > 0:09:07and being a Star Trek fan, I've got to go for McCoy.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11So that's my answer. HE LAUGHS
0:09:11 > 0:09:15Fantastic! It's the right answer! Yes, McCoy. Of course.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19Maybe that's where they got the name for the character from.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22All right. Which means that you need to get this, Chris.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25The Hague Convention of 1907
0:09:25 > 0:09:27related to international law about what?
0:09:29 > 0:09:33That restricted certain kinds of warfare.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Correct. Still in it.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38A really good chance here, Jeremy, to get into the final round.
0:09:38 > 0:09:44The temple complex of Angkor Wat in Cambodia was built in which century?
0:09:47 > 0:09:51I've heard of it. Angkor Wat. Erm...
0:09:52 > 0:09:57I've heard of it. I should think it's pretty old. Erm...
0:09:58 > 0:10:00But how old? That's the question.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04Erm, 16th century, 14th...
0:10:04 > 0:10:08Again, unfortunately, it's going to have to be a bit of a guess,
0:10:08 > 0:10:12so I'm going to say 14th century.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16OK, 14th century for a place in the final round.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18No. Well, not yet, maybe.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22It's the 12th century. OK, so we go to sudden death.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Jeremy, that means we remove the options
0:10:25 > 0:10:28and I've just got to hear an answer from you two. This is Chris's.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32Which English king was overthrown by his own wife, Isabella,
0:10:32 > 0:10:34and her lover, Roger Mortimer?
0:10:34 > 0:10:36It's Wars of the Roses, isn't it?
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Edward the V?
0:10:39 > 0:10:43- Dear me. No, Chris! Eggheads? - Edward II.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45- Edward II.- Second?- The second.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Well, Jeremy, let's try again.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52The Battle of Abukir Bay in 1798,
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Abukir Bay, in which the forces of Admiral Nelson
0:10:55 > 0:10:58defeated the French fleet off the coast of North Africa,
0:10:58 > 0:11:01is also known as the Battle of the what?
0:11:01 > 0:11:07I can only think of one and that's probably the Battle of the Nile.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09Battle of the Nile, Abukir Bay.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15It's the right answer! You're into the final round! Well done!
0:11:15 > 0:11:19And that is a mighty scalp you've taken from the Eggheads there.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Chris very rarely loses, if ever, at History.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25So, as I say, you're into the final round, playing for £4,000.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Please come back and join your teams.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31Well, it's all square after that round. Two rounds gone
0:11:31 > 0:11:35and one player from each team. Our next subject is geography.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- Who'd like to take this one on? - It's going to be you, Phil.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42- Yeah, we worked this out before and it'll be Philip.- OK, Philip.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Have you worked out who you'd like to take on?
0:11:45 > 0:11:48It cannot be Barry or Chris.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52- Kevin.- Kevin, yes.- Kevin. - OK, Kevin. Right.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Philip and Kevin playing Geography. Into the question room, please.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Philip, it's your choice. Would you like to go
0:12:00 > 0:12:02- first or second?- I'll go second.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09OK, it worked for Jeremy. Let's see if it works again against Kevin.
0:12:09 > 0:12:15The French port of Boulogne-sur-Mer lies on which body of water?
0:12:18 > 0:12:20It's one of the main Channel ports
0:12:20 > 0:12:25if you're crossing over from this country, so English Channel.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28It's the right answer. English Channel.
0:12:28 > 0:12:33Philip, your first question. Bullion Boulevard and Gold Vault Road
0:12:33 > 0:12:36are thoroughfares near which famous American building?
0:12:39 > 0:12:43I can't see it being near the Empire State Building.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Pennsylvania Avenue is the White House.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48So I'll go for Fort Knox.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51OK. Fort Knox is the right answer. Why do we have Bullion Boulevard
0:12:51 > 0:12:55- and Gold Vault Road, Eggheads? - US gold depository.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58All right. All square and another pair of questions.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01Kevin, Jeddah is an historic city
0:13:01 > 0:13:04and port in which country of the Middle East?
0:13:06 > 0:13:10I think it's the main port for pilgrims going to Mecca.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12- It's in Saudi Arabia. - Saudi Arabia is correct.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Philip, the city of Chiang Mai
0:13:15 > 0:13:18is a popular tourist destination in which country?
0:13:20 > 0:13:24I actually have been there, so it's definitely not Cambodia,
0:13:24 > 0:13:28it's definitely not Singapore, it's just north of Bangkok in Thailand.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31OK. No denying that, he's been there. It's the right answer.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Thailand. Kevin.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Islas de los Ladrones, meaning islands of thieves,
0:13:36 > 0:13:38is a former name of which island group?
0:13:41 > 0:13:43The Maldives are in the Indian Ocean
0:13:43 > 0:13:49and the Spanish weren't as active there.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Now, the Spanish had the Philippines.
0:13:53 > 0:13:57And some of their treasure fleets sailed between Philippines
0:13:57 > 0:13:59and their colonies in the Americas.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04But either of those could actually...
0:14:04 > 0:14:07Either of the others there... I've ruled out the Maldives.
0:14:08 > 0:14:13Either of the others could serve as bases for pirates
0:14:13 > 0:14:15after Spanish treasure ships.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18So the Moluccas were in what's now Indonesia.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Which was more Dutch controlled.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25I've got very little to go on here, but the Marianas
0:14:25 > 0:14:30are not that far from the Philippines in nautical terms,
0:14:30 > 0:14:33and the Marianas in itself is a Spanish name.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35I'll have to try for the Marianas.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39Wow. A forensic deconstruction.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43- I've probably come up with the wrong answer, too.- No, it is right, Kevin.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46Just fascinating hearing the thought processes there.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48And you got the right answer.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51OK, it means you need to get this, Philip.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54The Rhodope mountain range
0:14:54 > 0:14:57lies on the border of Greece and which other country?
0:14:59 > 0:15:04Well, northern Greece is extremely mountainous all the way around.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09Because it's coastal with Turkey,
0:15:09 > 0:15:13I would suggest Turkey is not the answer.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Albania is very, very small
0:15:17 > 0:15:21but that doesn't discount that there isn't a mountain range there.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23But Albania's also on the coast.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26And I can't see mountain ranges,
0:15:26 > 0:15:28cos you can see from Corfu Albania.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32And I wouldn't class those as mountains, I'd class them as hills.
0:15:32 > 0:15:37Erm... Because of the coastline part, I'll go for Bulgaria.
0:15:37 > 0:15:41Bulgaria. I think you matched Kevin there in your deconstruction.
0:15:41 > 0:15:46It's the right answer. Well done. All square. Into sudden death.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50Kevin, the Russian port of Vladivostok is on which ocean?
0:15:50 > 0:15:53It's their great Far Eastern port. It's on the Pacific.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57Is the correct answer, Pacific. And Philip.
0:15:57 > 0:16:02Albertville, host of the 1992 Winter Olympics, is in which country?
0:16:03 > 0:16:08It's obviously French-sounding. I'm discounting Canada.
0:16:08 > 0:16:12So it'd be France or Switzerland. I'll go for France.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Well done. It's the right answer. France.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Kevin, the three horizontal stripes
0:16:17 > 0:16:21on the Ethiopian flag are red, yellow and which other colour?
0:16:21 > 0:16:24The three colours are the ones that have often come to be seen
0:16:24 > 0:16:29as the Pan-African colours. They feature in a lot of African flags,
0:16:29 > 0:16:31- and it's green.- Green is correct.
0:16:31 > 0:16:36Philip, which central London park contains
0:16:36 > 0:16:39ring roads known as the Outer Circle and Inner Circle?
0:16:39 > 0:16:43If you've got roads inside, it's going to be one of the larger ones.
0:16:44 > 0:16:49Erm, I wouldn't have thought it's St James's.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53It's either Regent or Hyde, and I'll go for Hyde.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58Hyde Park. OK, Philip.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01Bad luck. It's Regent's Park.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03You said it there, you were doing a 50/50.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06And not Hyde Park but Regent's Park.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Which means, in an incredibly high quality round there,
0:17:09 > 0:17:13Kevin has pipped you there, Philip. You'll be in the final round, Kevin.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16No place for you, Philip. Come back and join your teams.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20This is turning out to be a great game.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23Some big battles going on in the head-to-heads. As it stands,
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Garden House Quizzers have just lost out so far. Two of them gone.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29One Egghead. Will it be all square in the final round?
0:17:29 > 0:17:31Let's find out in our Food & Drink category.
0:17:31 > 0:17:36We've got Matthew or Jonathon there available to play Food & Drink.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38- I'm rubbish at Food & Drink.- Chips.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42- Chips, yeah. - That'll be Matthew, then.- OK.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Matthew, choose from the remaining Eggheads, who are Judith and Pat.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49We could do with taking Pat out, if we can, rather that Judith.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51- So go for Pat.- Pat.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55OK. It's going to be Matthew and Pat playing Food & Drink.
0:17:56 > 0:18:01- OK, Matthew, would you like to go first or second?- I'll go first.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07OK, deciding to take the first set of questions. Matthew, here you go.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10Which of these terms describes meat that has been boned,
0:18:10 > 0:18:13stuffed and rolled into an egg-like shape?
0:18:16 > 0:18:19I've just not...
0:18:19 > 0:18:22I've not seen any of those ever on a menu,
0:18:22 > 0:18:24apart from perhaps ballotine.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28I'm going to have to guess on this one.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31I'll go for... ballotine.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34OK. It's the right answer. Good guess.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38Tricky one. Well done. Good start, Matthew.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Pat, kugel is a baked pudding traditional in which cuisine?
0:18:44 > 0:18:50Well, the word sounds faintly German or Yiddish, kugel.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Rings some sort of bell. And if it's Yiddish or German,
0:18:52 > 0:18:55that would incline me to Jewish.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59Indian puddings and Mexican puddings.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01No. I think I'll have to go with Jewish.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05Jewish is the correct answer. All square.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08What name is given to the style of Japanese cuisine
0:19:08 > 0:19:12in which food is cooked on and eaten from a hot griddle plate?
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Well, I know this one, because there's a restaurant
0:19:19 > 0:19:22in Brindleyplace in Birmingham which has this
0:19:22 > 0:19:27and it is named after it, so it's the third one, teppanyaki.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29OK. Well, that was easy, then. Yes.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32- And have you actually eaten there? - Yes.- Oh, fantastic.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Right answer. Nice, the way that one fell for you.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Pat, the glera grape variety
0:19:38 > 0:19:40is most associated with which type of wine?
0:19:43 > 0:19:47Well, I think I know the various grapes used to make champagne,
0:19:47 > 0:19:50chardonnay and I think it's sauvignon blanc,
0:19:50 > 0:19:53so I don't think it's champagne.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57Cava is a sort of Spanish champagne, a sparkling wine,
0:19:57 > 0:19:59and prosecco is an Italian one.
0:19:59 > 0:20:03I think it sounds Italian, and yet I'm inclined to go for Spain
0:20:03 > 0:20:07because if it was an Italian grape, I might have heard of it.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10So this is a difficult pick, really.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13There's an unconvincing argument for each option.
0:20:15 > 0:20:20Glera. I'll go for prosecco, but I think it's 50/50.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24But you're good at your 50/50s, you Eggheads. It's the right answer.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27It is prosecco. Ooh.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30OK, Matthew, fougasse is a bread
0:20:30 > 0:20:34typically associated with which region of France?
0:20:36 > 0:20:40I think I know this because I've recently been to France
0:20:40 > 0:20:44and I went to Brittany, and I think I remember seeing it there,
0:20:44 > 0:20:46so I'll go for that one, Brittany.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49Fougasse from Brittany.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53Yeah. No, it's not.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57Maybe they had some there, but typically associated with,
0:20:57 > 0:21:00- Judith?- Provence?- Provence, yes.
0:21:00 > 0:21:06OK, a gap that Pat might be able to get through and get into the final.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10Pat, Trinity cream, named after the Cambridge college,
0:21:10 > 0:21:12is a version of which dessert?
0:21:15 > 0:21:17Well, erm...
0:21:17 > 0:21:21These colleges are famed for their fine dining.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25Creme brulee is a sort of French thing,
0:21:25 > 0:21:29zabaglione is Italian and blancmange is pretty English.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32But then Trinity could well spread its wings,
0:21:32 > 0:21:35it doesn't have to be an English dish.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37I'm going to assume it is an English dish
0:21:37 > 0:21:40and they're not being too continental and I'll say blancmange.
0:21:40 > 0:21:44No, it is creme brulee.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Trinity cream. Into sudden death.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50You survive, Matthew, and here's your question.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53In 2003, tortilla chips and salsa
0:21:53 > 0:21:57became the official snack of which US state?
0:21:57 > 0:22:01Well, it must be one of the southern ones. Er...
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Nevada, Texas...
0:22:07 > 0:22:12- Texas.- Is that your answer? - Yes.- Texas, correct.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Well done.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18Pat, the New Zealand green-lipped is a species of which shellfish?
0:22:18 > 0:22:22I think they eat all sorts of shellfish,
0:22:22 > 0:22:24big abalone-type things.
0:22:25 > 0:22:29I think I've heard of a green-lipped mussel. I'll just thing about that.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32I don't think it's a barnacle.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Yes, I think it's a green-lipped mussel.
0:22:34 > 0:22:38That's the right answer, Pat. And back to Matthew.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Which American cookery writer presented
0:22:40 > 0:22:43the Emmy Award-winning show The French Chef,
0:22:43 > 0:22:46first seen in 1963?
0:22:48 > 0:22:50No idea. Dick Van Dyke.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53- LAUGHTER - I like the guess there.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58- And perhaps not...- He's good at accents.- He's very good at accents,
0:22:58 > 0:23:03yeah, as Kevin was saying there. Pat, do you know?
0:23:03 > 0:23:06- I'll try Julia Child. - It is Julia Child!
0:23:06 > 0:23:10Wow. You don't get through on that but you do if you get this correct.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Which film actress published the cookbook
0:23:13 > 0:23:17Notes From My Kitchen Table in 2011?
0:23:17 > 0:23:21So many people put out cookbooks. I think, off the top of my head,
0:23:21 > 0:23:26the actress that is most linked with diet is Gwyneth Paltrow.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29OK, Gwyneth Paltrow. Well, you knew Julia Child
0:23:29 > 0:23:33and you did know this one, too. Gwyneth Paltrow is correct.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35You get through to the final round.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39That was a fantastic bit of quizzing there, Matthew. Really bad luck.
0:23:39 > 0:23:43You won't have a place in the final round. Come and join your teams.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46And so this is what we've been playing towards,
0:23:46 > 0:23:49it's time for the final round, which is General Knowledge.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:23:52 > 0:23:55won't be allowed to take part in this round. So, Matthew, Chandar
0:23:55 > 0:23:57and Philip from Garden House Quizzers
0:23:57 > 0:24:00and Chris from the Eggheads, leave the studio, please.
0:24:01 > 0:24:06So, Jeremy and Jonathan, you're playing to win £4,000.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09Barry, Pat, Judith and Kevin, you're playing for something
0:24:09 > 0:24:11which money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14And as usual, I'll ask each team three questions.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16This time the questions are all General Knowledge
0:24:16 > 0:24:20and you are allowed to confer. Do you want to go first or second?
0:24:20 > 0:24:24- I think we'll go first, don't you? - Yeah, we'll go first.
0:24:28 > 0:24:32OK, first question. What popular name was given to the victory pose
0:24:32 > 0:24:36that the athlete Mo Farah exhibited at the 2012 Olympics?
0:24:39 > 0:24:43- That's the Mobot.- Which you'll be doing if you win the money.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47OK, Eggheads,
0:24:47 > 0:24:52for what does the letter D stand in the computing abbreviation DPI,
0:24:52 > 0:24:55used in reference to the resolution of graphic images?
0:24:58 > 0:25:02- Dots.- Dots per inch. - Dots per inch.- Dots per inch?
0:25:02 > 0:25:05It's dots per inch.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09Very good, Judith. Dots is correct.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11OK, Garden House Quizzers,
0:25:11 > 0:25:13in the United States, the Newbery Medal
0:25:13 > 0:25:17is a prestigious award given to authors in which field?
0:25:21 > 0:25:24- I've not heard of it. Have you?- No.
0:25:24 > 0:25:28I've not heard of it. Erm, let's think. Biography.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Let's go through it logically. Biographies?
0:25:31 > 0:25:34- You wouldn't think you would get a medal for biographies.- You wouldn't.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37- People write about themselves.- No.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41- Science fiction, there's an awful lot of science fiction.- True.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44I think I'd have heard of it if it was science fiction.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48- OK.- But not reading children's books,
0:25:48 > 0:25:52- I'd go for children's literature. - I've got no idea, so we'll go...
0:25:52 > 0:25:54We'll go for children's literature, please.
0:25:54 > 0:25:58It's the right answer, well done. Well worked out, guys.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01In 2012, David Cameron was accused of ageism
0:26:01 > 0:26:04after referring to which veteran politician as a dinosaur
0:26:04 > 0:26:06during Prime Minister's Questions?
0:26:09 > 0:26:12- Skinner, wasn't it?- It was Skinner. - Skinner?- I'd have thought so.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14- Yeah.- Not John Prescott?
0:26:14 > 0:26:19- He would also qualify. - It wouldn't be Vince Cable.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23- I think it was Dennis Skinner.- I think it was. Shall I say that?- Yes.
0:26:23 > 0:26:28- We think it's Dennis Skinner.- It is the right answer, Dennis Skinner.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32OK, Garden House Quizzers, Welcome To Wherever You Are
0:26:32 > 0:26:35was a 1990s UK number-one album for which band?
0:26:38 > 0:26:43- Ooh.- Pop music.- I don't know. - Can we rule any out?
0:26:43 > 0:26:45Welcome To Wherever You Are.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50Well, didn't Bon Jovi do Welcome To The Jungle?
0:26:50 > 0:26:52- Could be a play on that, couldn't it?- Mm.
0:26:52 > 0:26:57Out of any of them, I think Bon Jovi might have done it.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59- I don't think it's Simply Red. - I don't think so.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02And I'm not really familiar with INXS, so I think Bon Jovi
0:27:02 > 0:27:05- if we're guessing... - I think it's our best shot.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09- It's a guess.- It's a slight guess. Straight down the middle. Bon Jovi.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11Welcome To Wherever You Are
0:27:11 > 0:27:15- is by... INXS.- Ahh.
0:27:15 > 0:27:20A miss there. And could it be a crucial one at this point?
0:27:20 > 0:27:24Eggheads, where in the human body is the thymus gland situated?
0:27:27 > 0:27:29The hypothalamus is in the brain.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32- But I think the thymus is in the... - In the chest.- ..is in the chest.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34- Oh.- The thyroid is in the neck.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37- Yeah.- A bit lower down, you've got the thymus.- Yeah.
0:27:37 > 0:27:42The thymus is in the chest. I'm sure it's sort of up around here.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46- Is it? Are you sure?- It's not the stomach. I think it's the chest.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48- What do you think?- Yes.- OK.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52Erm, most of us think it's the chest.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56It's the chest. It's the right answer. You've won.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06Well, bad luck, guys, but that was some quality quizzing.
0:28:06 > 0:28:10Some of those head-to-heads could easily have gone the other way.
0:28:10 > 0:28:14Matthew's round against Pat there, so close for him.
0:28:14 > 0:28:18But not to be at the end of the day. Good luck with the pub quiz machine.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21- Thank you.- And the quizzes. And thank you for giving the Eggheads
0:28:21 > 0:28:24a very good game. But the Eggheads have done what comes naturally
0:28:24 > 0:28:27and they still reign supreme over Quizland.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £4,000,
0:28:30 > 0:28:34so the money rolls over to the next show. Eggheads, congratulations.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37Who will beat you? Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:37 > 0:28:41have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. £5,000 says they don't.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Until then, goodbye.
