0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:12 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20The 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 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:35They are the Eggheads! And taking on our quiz champions today
0:00:35 > 0:00:38are Every Hog Has Its Day. This team of friends from Southampton
0:00:38 > 0:00:41take their name from the colloquial term given to residents
0:00:41 > 0:00:45of their part of the world - Hampshire Hogs. Let's meet them.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Hello. I'm Tom. I'm 53, and I'm a service engineer.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52Hello. I'm John. I'm 66. I'm a retired software engineer.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56Hi. I'm Darrin. I'm 44, and I'm a grounds-maintenance manager.
0:00:56 > 0:01:00Hello. I'm Karen. I'm 49, and I'm a swimming instructor.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hello. I'm Paul. I'm 50, and I'm a retired retail manager.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Welcome to you, Every Hog Has Its Day.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10I feel a bit rude, calling you Hogs. What's the origins of that?
0:01:10 > 0:01:14- Where does this come from? - Hog, a pig, is the simplest version.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16The Hampshire hog is a breed of pig.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19The term originated in the early 18th century.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- Hampshire was famous for its fine bacon.- Oh!- OK.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Let's talk about your quizzing credentials.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28- How experienced are you? - We've played together a lot.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30We won £1,000 on our local radio show.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33We've reached the final of a national quiz,
0:01:33 > 0:01:35which was for the MG Rover Group.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39We finished slightly behind an Egghead who's not here today, Pat.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42He finished runner-up, and we've played together in a lot of quizzes.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45OK. Well, should be a good contest, then.
0:01:45 > 0:01:49Every day there's £1,000 cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56The Eggheads have won the last seven games,
0:01:56 > 0:02:00which means £8,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads today.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03And we'll start the quiz now with the opening round,
0:02:03 > 0:02:06which is Arts And Books. And can you select a player, please?
0:02:06 > 0:02:09- That'll be me. - OK, Karen.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12- And select your Egghead. Who do you want to take on?- Dave?
0:02:12 > 0:02:15- Yeah.- Dave, please. - Dave. Right!
0:02:15 > 0:02:19Opening round, it's Karen and Dave on Arts And Books.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Into the Question Room, both of you.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Well, Karen, my spies tell me about your love of The Osmonds.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28- That's correct, yes. - Have you met them all?
0:02:28 > 0:02:32Er, every one apart from Donny and Alan.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- Oh, no! You haven't met Donny? - No!
0:02:35 > 0:02:38- Are you searching him out? - I've got a concert planned
0:02:38 > 0:02:41early next year, so I'll try again then.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44- OK. What about Marie? - No. I don't do the...
0:02:44 > 0:02:47It's just the brothers, I'm afraid. THEY LAUGH
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- You don't care about her. - No.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52We care about this round. Would you like to go first or second?
0:02:52 > 0:02:55I think I'd like to go second.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00OK. Thinking of The Osmonds there,
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- it's our very own crazy horse, Dave. - HE LAUGHS
0:03:03 > 0:03:05- I like that one. - Yeah. It rather fits,
0:03:05 > 0:03:07along with tremendous knowledge.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10OK. Arts And Books. Your first question, then, Dave.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Witness For The Prosecution is a play
0:03:12 > 0:03:15by an author best known for her detective novels?
0:03:19 > 0:03:21I think that's Agatha Christie.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25It is, Dave, yep. Well done. Sure you would've got that, Karen,
0:03:25 > 0:03:28but you chose to go second, so try this one.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30"I took the one less traveled by,
0:03:30 > 0:03:32And that has made all the difference" are the last two lines
0:03:32 > 0:03:35of a famous poem by which American poet?
0:03:40 > 0:03:44OK. Um, unsure of this answer.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Um...
0:03:47 > 0:03:49I'm going to rule out William Wordsworth,
0:03:49 > 0:03:53and I am unsure, but I'm going to go for Robert Frost.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Yep. It's actually a very simple question.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58It's "which one of these is American?"
0:03:58 > 0:04:01The other two are British and Irish.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Robert Frost is the right answer. Yes. Well done.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06And, Dave, second question.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10Long poems are often divided into sections known by what name?
0:04:14 > 0:04:17I'll go cantos.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19That's right. Cantos.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22All right, Karen.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26Jan van Eyck's Arnolfini Portrait is painted on which material?
0:04:28 > 0:04:34Jan van Eyck's Arnolfini Portrait is painted on what material?
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Canvas seems the obvious answer,
0:04:37 > 0:04:41um, so I'm going to rule that one out.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44Um, I quite like the idea of wood.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Um...
0:04:47 > 0:04:50With that era... I'm going to say plaster.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53OK. Plaster for the Arnolfini Portrait.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56It's not the right answer. It is wood,
0:04:56 > 0:04:59which is the one you quite liked, but didn't go for it.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Tell me a bit more about the Arnolfini Portrait, Eggheads.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06It's a very early example of oil painting.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10- It's in the National Gallery.- OK. - It shows an Italian merchant
0:05:10 > 0:05:13and his wife. There's a lot of debate about what exactly...
0:05:13 > 0:05:17is the circumstances - was it a betrothal or was it a wedding,
0:05:17 > 0:05:21that sort of thing. Different art historians have different views.
0:05:21 > 0:05:26OK. Right. Chance, then, to get through here, Dave.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28What is the name of the street cat
0:05:28 > 0:05:32in the title of the bestselling 2012 book by James Bowen?
0:05:34 > 0:05:37I don't know. I've not heard of this, so...
0:05:37 > 0:05:40going to have to be a guess. I'm going to go Ben.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44OK. A Street Cat Named...Bob!
0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Mm!- All right. Well, it means you're still in it, Karen.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51Chance to take us into Sudden Death. Knole House in Kent
0:05:51 > 0:05:54was the birthplace of which 20th-century author?
0:05:58 > 0:06:03Knole House, that's K-N-O-L-E, Knole House in Kent.
0:06:04 > 0:06:08Again, I'm not sure of this. I've never been to Knole House.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Um...
0:06:14 > 0:06:19I'm drawn towards Vita Sackville-West
0:06:19 > 0:06:22and Ivy Compton-Burnett.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25My choice is going to be Vita Sackville-West.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29Last time you were drawn to wood but ended up with plaster.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33You've got the right one this time! Yes, Vita Sackville-West.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Born in Knole House, and we go to Sudden Death.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40And just to explain to you that we remove the options here
0:06:40 > 0:06:44until we get a winner. So, Dave, a bachelor called Will Freeman
0:06:44 > 0:06:48and a 12-year-old boy called Marcus are the central characters
0:06:48 > 0:06:50of which 1998 novel by Nick Hornby?
0:06:50 > 0:06:52About A Boy.
0:06:52 > 0:06:56Is correct, and in the film, the part of Will Freeman played by...
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- Hugh Grant. - Oh, you know it. Yes, OK.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02About A Boy is the correct answer. So, Karen,
0:07:02 > 0:07:04if you get this wrong, you're out.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Which of Shakespeare's kings says the line,
0:07:07 > 0:07:10"I wasted time, and now doth time waste me"?
0:07:11 > 0:07:15OK. It's not a quote that, um...
0:07:16 > 0:07:19..that I know. Um...
0:07:20 > 0:07:23So I'm going to go for...
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- King Lear. - King Lear?
0:07:26 > 0:07:29That's what I would have gone for as well, before I saw the answer,
0:07:29 > 0:07:32but it's not the right answer. Do you know, Dave?
0:07:32 > 0:07:34I don't know. Richard III?
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Ah, so close! - Richard II.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39- Oh, right! - Richard II.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- Fair enough. - Richard II, Karen. Bad luck,
0:07:41 > 0:07:44which means, Dave, you are through to the final round.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:07:48 > 0:07:52First round gone, and one member from Every Hog Has Its Day gone.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55The Eggheads all there. Here's an opportunity again
0:07:55 > 0:07:59to get rid of one of them if you can. It's Geography.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- Who'd like to play this round? - Me.- That's you, isn't it?
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Who am I going to take? Um...
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- I think you should take one... - Take Barry, can I?
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- Yeah, I reckon so. - I'm going to take Geography, Dermot,
0:08:10 > 0:08:12and I'd like to play Barry, please.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15All right. John is going to take on Barry.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Into the Question Room, please, both of you.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20And of course, John, by the rules of Eggheads,
0:08:20 > 0:08:24you get to choose whether you go first or second. What is it to be?
0:08:24 > 0:08:26I think I'd like to go first, please, Dermot.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31OK, John. Best of luck. Here's your first question.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34The village of Grimethorpe, famous for its brass band,
0:08:34 > 0:08:37is in which county?
0:08:38 > 0:08:42Well, Grimethorpe sounds very northern to me,
0:08:42 > 0:08:46and as the other two counties are nowhere near the north,
0:08:46 > 0:08:48- I'll plump for South Yorkshire. - It is the right answer.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52Yes. Well done. Grimethorpe, of course, in South Yorkshire.
0:08:52 > 0:08:57And, Barry, Catalunya, Sagrada Familia and Palau Reial
0:08:57 > 0:09:00are stations on the Metro system of which city?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04Well, I've been to the Sagrada Familia.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08It's that great cathedral by Gaudi, and it's in Barcelona,
0:09:08 > 0:09:10so I guess these are Barcelona stations.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13That's right, Barry. Well done. One to you.
0:09:13 > 0:09:18And, John, what is the main monetary unit of Uruguay?
0:09:20 > 0:09:24Right. It's narrowing these South American countries down.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28I've got a feeling the guarani is Paraguay.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32I've got a feeling the bolivar is Venezuela.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34I'm going to go for peso.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Peso is the right answer, John. Well worked out.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Thinking like an Egghead there, narrowing them down,
0:09:40 > 0:09:43ending up with the right answer. Barry, next question.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46The city of Varanasi, previously known as Banaras,
0:09:46 > 0:09:48stands on which river?
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Well, Varanasi is a sacred city to the Hindus,
0:09:53 > 0:09:56so that must mean that it's on the Ganges.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Does indeed. Didn't need to narrow that down. Knew it. It's two all.
0:10:00 > 0:10:05And back to you, John. Byron Bay is a town in which Australian state?
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Right. A little bit stuck here.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Byron Bay doesn't immediately come to mind.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17I know there's a big bay in South Australia,
0:10:17 > 0:10:19but I don't think it's called Byron Bay.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25- I'm going to go New South Wales. - OK. New South Wales.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28It's the right answer. Well done, John.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32So, Barry, what type of geographical feature
0:10:32 > 0:10:36are Selfoss and Gullfoss in Iceland?
0:10:39 > 0:10:42Well, I've just come back from a holiday in Norway,
0:10:42 > 0:10:46and I saw a couple of waterfalls, and they all had the ending "foss",
0:10:46 > 0:10:49so I presume that the root is the same,
0:10:49 > 0:10:52- so I'm going to go for waterfall. - Paying attention on your hols.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56It's the right answer. Paid you dividends. We go to Sudden Death
0:10:56 > 0:11:01once again, and John, the Megyeri Bridge spans the River Danube
0:11:01 > 0:11:06in which city? The Megyeri, M-E-G-Y-E-R-I.
0:11:08 > 0:11:13Right. The Danube goes through about eight capital cities.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16This sounds like an Eastern European city.
0:11:16 > 0:11:21It could be Belgrade. It could be Budapest.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Um...
0:11:24 > 0:11:27Sounds Romanian or Bulgarian.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32- I'm going to go for Belgrade. - OK. Belgrade.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36It's not. It's one of the others you said. It is... Barry?
0:11:36 > 0:11:39The Magyars live in Hungary, so I'd have gone for Budapest.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- Budapest, or "Budapesht". - Of course it does.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44And so a chance for Barry.
0:11:44 > 0:11:49In the USA, which West Coast state borders Washington, Idaho,
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Nevada and California?
0:11:51 > 0:11:55Washington, Idaho, Nevada and California...
0:11:55 > 0:11:57That would be Oregon.
0:11:57 > 0:12:01It's the correct answer, Barry. You are through to the final round.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Bad luck, John. Would you both come back and join your teams?
0:12:05 > 0:12:08Well, Every Hog Has Its Day have lost two brains
0:12:08 > 0:12:11from the final round. The Eggheads are all still there.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14So, two more head-to-heads coming up.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17This one is Film And Television. Who'd like to play this,
0:12:17 > 0:12:21- from Every Hog Has Its Day? - Darrin is Film And Television.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23- Darrin, yeah. - I'll do that, yeah.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26OK. And the Eggheads you can choose from,
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Barry and Dave have played, so you've got Chris, Daphne or Kevin.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31Have you thought of taking Daphne on?
0:12:31 > 0:12:35- We'll take Daphne on. - Daphne, yeah.
0:12:35 > 0:12:39- Yes. We'll take Daphne on, please. - It's going to be Darrin and Daphne
0:12:39 > 0:12:42playing Film And TV. Into the Question Room, please.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47Darrin, I know you like your sport, but you're playing this round.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50- Presumably one of your strengths as well?- It is, actually, yes.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53A bit less energetic than sport, so suits me fine.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Tell me, when you were playing golf in Florida,
0:12:56 > 0:13:01and you tried the novel trick of landing your ball on an alligator!
0:13:01 > 0:13:04I did, Dermot, yes. I pulled off one of my famous drives to the left,
0:13:04 > 0:13:08which disappeared over the yonder, drove my buggy after the ball.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Over the hill I saw what I thought was a tacky wooden alligator
0:13:12 > 0:13:15sat by the lake, so I wandered down to play my shot,
0:13:15 > 0:13:18flicked a tee I had in my pocket at it,
0:13:18 > 0:13:21thinking, "That's so tacky," and an eye opened!
0:13:21 > 0:13:23It was the quickest shot I've ever played.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26There were no swing thoughts. It was just getting away.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28- You did play it, then? - I did the whole course.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31- I wasn't going to drop a shot for that.- Absolutely not.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Wonder what it says about that in the rules!
0:13:34 > 0:13:38- OK. Would you like to go first or second?- I'll go first, please.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45All right, Darrin. First question. Which of these is a daytime TV show
0:13:45 > 0:13:49in which members of the public sell their collectables at auction?
0:13:51 > 0:13:54I'm not normally in during the day,
0:13:54 > 0:13:57but I don't think Lose It!, Hawk It!...
0:13:57 > 0:14:00It's more likely... I'll go for Flog It!, Dermot.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03Flog It! It's the right answer. Yes, well done.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07Daphne, who starred opposite Omar Sharif
0:14:07 > 0:14:10in the 1968 film Funny Girl?
0:14:13 > 0:14:16That was Barbra Streisand.
0:14:16 > 0:14:20Yes, it was. Correct answer. One apiece.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23And, Darrin, Gizzi Erskine has presented television programmes
0:14:23 > 0:14:25on which subject?
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Right. I watch a lot of sport.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33I don't recall that name through sport.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35I watch a few politics. I'm not sure...
0:14:35 > 0:14:39I'm leaning towards cookery,
0:14:39 > 0:14:42because I've never actually heard of her, to be honest.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45- I'll go cookery, Dermot. - Right to do so. Yes, it's correct.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Daphne, "Everybody lies" is a phrase
0:14:50 > 0:14:53associated with which television doctor?
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Um...
0:15:00 > 0:15:03Sounds a bit like Gregory House to me.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05- Is that your answer? - Mm-hm.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08It is the correct one, yes. It's all square at two all.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12A third question each could decide the winner of this round.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Darrin, the BBC drama The Paradise,
0:15:15 > 0:15:19first broadcast in 2012, was based on a work by which writer?
0:15:23 > 0:15:26Right. I haven't actually seen this,
0:15:26 > 0:15:31so again I'm going to have to reduce my choices down.
0:15:31 > 0:15:35Victor Hugo... Victor Hugo sounds familiar.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41I think I'm going to go for Guy de Maupassant.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44OK. Guy de Maupassant. Um, it's not.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47- Do you know, Daphne? - I'd have gone for Zola.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50It is Emile Zola. Doesn't matter, though.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54She doesn't get the point. You need to get this to win the round,
0:15:54 > 0:15:57as you know, Daphne. Chuckie Sullivan and Sean Maguire
0:15:57 > 0:16:01are two of the central characters in which 1997 film?
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Trying to think.
0:16:12 > 0:16:18Um...haven't seen the last two.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Um, Sean...
0:16:21 > 0:16:23The Full Monty?
0:16:23 > 0:16:29OK, The Full Monty. No. Wrong side of the Atlantic altogether.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32- It is... Other Eggheads? - Good Will Hunting.- Oh, right. OK.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Well, that's great news.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38You survive, Darrin, into Sudden Death.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42Here you go. In 2011, Mark Benton took on the role of a maths teacher
0:16:42 > 0:16:44called Mr Chalk in which TV series?
0:16:46 > 0:16:51It's not one I'm familiar with, the name Mr Benton. Mr Chalk...
0:16:51 > 0:16:53I'd say Waterloo Road.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56It's the right answer, yes. Well done. Waterloo Road.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59And, Daphne, then, to stay in it this time,
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Jools Holland was banned for six weeks
0:17:01 > 0:17:04as presenter of which Channel 4 music show
0:17:04 > 0:17:07after using colourful language during a live trailer?
0:17:07 > 0:17:10Oh, dear!
0:17:10 > 0:17:14I ought to know this. Um...
0:17:17 > 0:17:19The Word?
0:17:19 > 0:17:22- The Word? - No?
0:17:22 > 0:17:25I'll give you a word. No.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27- No?- I think you were on to it but you couldn't conjure it up.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30- It is the... - ALL: The Tube.- The Tube.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34- Oh, that one! Yes. - Yes. Oh, look at Daphne!
0:17:34 > 0:17:37Oh, dear, didn't get it. That's great news, Darrin!
0:17:37 > 0:17:40Well, for a moment or two when you got your third one wrong,
0:17:40 > 0:17:43I thought Daphne was going to end it all there,
0:17:43 > 0:17:46but she missed it and she's now out. Well turned round, Darrin.
0:17:46 > 0:17:50You're in the final round. Come back and join your teams.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Well, a certain hog certainly had its day there!
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- I feel so rude, calling you a hog! - Well, I've been called worse.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01Well, Darrin has made it through to the final round
0:18:01 > 0:18:04at Daphne's expense, which means in terms of the balance of the teams,
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Every Hog Has Its Day have lost two brains.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09The Eggheads have lost one. So, will it be all square
0:18:09 > 0:18:13in the final round? Our last head-to-head is on History.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16And we've got Paul and Tom left to play it. History.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19- Well, Paul, it's your favourite subject, isn't it?- No.
0:18:19 > 0:18:24- Do you want me to take it?- You put it down as your best subject.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26- OK. - I think so, yeah.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29- I think you will take it. - That's me, Dermot.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31I liked that conversation. "Is it me?"
0:18:31 > 0:18:34And John saying, "Well, you put it down as your best subject."
0:18:34 > 0:18:36All right, Paul. Choose an Egghead here.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40Barry, Daphne and Dave have played, so it's Chris or Kevin.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42I'll take Chris, please.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45Let's have Paul and Chris into the Question Room.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49OK, Paul, you get to choose, as you know,
0:18:49 > 0:18:52on your favourite subject. Would you like to go first or second?
0:18:52 > 0:18:54I'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59All right. Chris rather likes this as well,
0:18:59 > 0:19:02so should be a good contest. Paul, first question.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05Britannia Prima and Britannia Secunda
0:19:05 > 0:19:07were provinces of which empire?
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Britannia Prima and Britannia Secunda
0:19:12 > 0:19:14were provinces of which empire?
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Erm...
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Well, because of the Britannia intro,
0:19:19 > 0:19:23I don't like Assyrian or Egyptian.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26- I'll go for Roman.- Very good, yes. You'd be right to do so.
0:19:26 > 0:19:31Chris, first question. The woman born Nancy Witcher Langhorne
0:19:31 > 0:19:36in 1879 was better known by what title?
0:19:39 > 0:19:43The woman born Nancy Witcher Langhorne in 1879
0:19:43 > 0:19:46was better known by what title?
0:19:46 > 0:19:48She was Nancy, Lady Astor.
0:19:48 > 0:19:53OK. It's the right answer, yes, Chris. OK. Back to you, Paul.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Grand Duchess Charlotte ruled which country
0:19:55 > 0:19:59from 1919 to 1964?
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Grand Duchess Charlotte.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06Erm... I don't actually know,
0:20:06 > 0:20:09but I wouldn't think it'd be Sweden.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13Erm... Well, as she's a grand duchess,
0:20:13 > 0:20:16I would say the Duchy of Luxembourg, so I'll go for Luxembourg.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20That's the way to sort that one out. It's the right answer. Well done.
0:20:21 > 0:20:25Chris, who sponsored the initial attempt of the colonisation
0:20:25 > 0:20:28of Roanoke Island in what is now North Carolina?
0:20:33 > 0:20:36HE SIGHS
0:20:37 > 0:20:40In other words, who put up the money?
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Um...
0:20:44 > 0:20:47Well, Francis Drake and Walter Raleigh were both pirates,
0:20:47 > 0:20:51for all intents and purposes, so they'd have had a fair old stash.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55But they'd have wanted to give the thing an air of respectability,
0:20:55 > 0:20:58so the only one there with any legitimate cash would be Devereux,
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Earl of Essex, so that's what I'll go with.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05Devereux, Earl of Essex. Do the other Eggheads agree?
0:21:05 > 0:21:08- It's Walter Raleigh. - It's Sir Walter Raleigh.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10- Oh! - OK, interesting.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14Chris didn't know that, so that's fantastic news for you, Paul.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17You have an unchallenged shot here.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19If you get this, you're in the final round.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23And here's the question. James Wolfe, the British Army officer
0:21:23 > 0:21:27famous for his victory over the French, died during which conflict?
0:21:32 > 0:21:34James Wolfe, the British Army officer
0:21:34 > 0:21:39famous for his victory over the French, died during which conflict?
0:21:40 > 0:21:41Erm...
0:21:41 > 0:21:45I think Napoleonic Wars would be too late.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Erm...
0:21:47 > 0:21:50It's a toss-up between the other two.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53I'll go for the Seven Years' War.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57OK. The Seven Years' War for the death of James Wolfe.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01It's the right answer! Well done.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Kills off Chris's challenge.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06You're in the final round. Congratulations, Paul.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:22:09 > 0:22:13This is what we've been playing towards. It's the final round,
0:22:13 > 0:22:17General Knowledge. But those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:22:17 > 0:22:19won't be allowed to take part in this round,
0:22:19 > 0:22:22so, John and Karen from Every Hog Has Its Day
0:22:22 > 0:22:24and Daphne and Chris from the Eggheads,
0:22:24 > 0:22:27would you leave the studio right now, please?
0:22:28 > 0:22:33Tom, Darrin and Paul, you're playing to win Every Hog Has Its Day £8,000.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36Kevin, Dave and Barry, you are playing for something
0:22:36 > 0:22:39which money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43And, as usual, I ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47The questions are general knowledge, and you are allowed to confer.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50So, Every Hog, are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three?
0:22:50 > 0:22:54And, Tom, Darrin and Paul, would you like to go first or second?
0:22:54 > 0:22:58Since our successful players went first, we'll go first.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03OK. Good luck, and your first question is this.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07"He has a powerful weapon, he charges a million a shot"
0:23:07 > 0:23:11are lyrics referring to which James Bond film title character?
0:23:15 > 0:23:18"He has a powerful weapon, he charges a million a shot"
0:23:18 > 0:23:22are lyrics referring to which James Bond film title character?
0:23:22 > 0:23:25Yeah. We agree. Man With The Golden Gun,
0:23:25 > 0:23:28played by Christopher Lee, Mr Gruesome.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31OK, and triple nipples. The Man With The Golden Gun.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33It's the right answer, yeah.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35And, Eggheads,
0:23:35 > 0:23:39John Baur and Mark Summers declared September the 19th
0:23:39 > 0:23:43to be International Talk Like A what Day?
0:23:45 > 0:23:48John Baur and Mark Summers declared September the 19th
0:23:48 > 0:23:51to be International Talk Like A what Day?
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Oh, arr! It's Talk Like A Pirate.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55Yeah, or was that parrot? Never mind.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59OK. We think that's Pirate.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01It is the right answer, Eggheads.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Talk Like A Pirate Day.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06All right. Second question for you,
0:24:06 > 0:24:08Every Hog Has Its Day. In fashion,
0:24:08 > 0:24:11a flounce which extends from the waist of a garment
0:24:11 > 0:24:14and covers the hips is known by what name?
0:24:17 > 0:24:21In fashion, a flounce which extends from the waist of a garment
0:24:21 > 0:24:23and covers the hips is known by what name?
0:24:23 > 0:24:27I don't know. I've never heard of... It's definitely not petticoat.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29- No. So it's going to be... - Pleather or peplum.
0:24:29 > 0:24:33- Do you know those words at all? - I've heard of peplum.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36- Pleather... - Do you have a pleather of something?
0:24:36 > 0:24:40I think plethora. I think we're going to have to guess number two.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42- I fancy the middle one. - Yeah.- OK.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45We're going to go for peplum, as a strict guess.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47OK, a guess. Well, a bit more than that.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51I heard you doing a bit of analysis and eliminating at least one there,
0:24:51 > 0:24:55and it is the right answer. Well done. Peplum. OK, Eggheads.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57In mythology, what are talaria?
0:25:01 > 0:25:06In mythology, what are talaria? T-A-L-A-R-I-A.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09- Winged sandals.- Winged sandals. - Is that Mercury, or...
0:25:09 > 0:25:12That's what we'll have. OK.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16Yeah. As worn by Hermes, or Mercury, they're winged sandals.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18- Or Barry. - Yeah, occasionally.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21It is the right answer, yes. Winged sandals.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24So it's all square again, and, Every Hog Has Its Day,
0:25:24 > 0:25:30booted, crab-eating and Assam are species of which primate?
0:25:32 > 0:25:38Booted, crab-eating and Assam are species of which primate?
0:25:38 > 0:25:41It won't be lemur cos that's Madagascar.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44- Yeah. It's not lemur. - Tamarin... Is that South America?
0:25:44 > 0:25:46Tamarin... Yeah, it must be, mustn't it?
0:25:46 > 0:25:51And what's... Macaque. That sort of word, like macaw...
0:25:51 > 0:25:54Tamarin. Tamarin monkeys. Where do they come from?
0:25:54 > 0:25:58They're the little gold ones. They're, um...
0:25:58 > 0:26:01- Little gold ones? - Yeah.
0:26:02 > 0:26:06- Macaque...- Assam should lead us there, shouldn't it?
0:26:06 > 0:26:09The problem with macaque and tamarin is,
0:26:09 > 0:26:13is macaque South American? Is tamarin South American?
0:26:14 > 0:26:16- I don't know. - Just a New World monkey.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20- Oh, I can't remember! - Is macaque New World?
0:26:20 > 0:26:25Let's go for tamarin, yeah? Tamarin rings more of a bell with me.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27- Yeah.- Yeah. - Let's go for it.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30- We hope it's tamarin. - OK.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Some detailed discussions there, and gone for tamarin
0:26:33 > 0:26:35for the booted, crab-eating and Assam.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38They're species of macaque.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41So a slip-up there on the third question,
0:26:41 > 0:26:45so the Eggheads have a chance to win the game.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48ASKAP, which became the world's fastest radio telescope
0:26:48 > 0:26:53when it was launched in October 2012, is in which country?
0:26:56 > 0:27:01ASKAP, A-S-K-A-P, which became the world's fastest radio telescope
0:27:01 > 0:27:04when it was launched in October 2012, is in which country?
0:27:04 > 0:27:08Trying to remember what it stands for. I think it's Australia.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Yeah. I'm sure I've seen a Horizon on it.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Trying to think what ASKAP actually stands for.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16THEY CONFER QUIETLY
0:27:16 > 0:27:21- I'm reasonably happy it's Australia, I think.- So am I.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23- OK? We'll go with that. - Australia.
0:27:23 > 0:27:27We're not a hundred percent, but we do think it's in Australia.
0:27:27 > 0:27:32Australia for ASKAP, the world's fastest radio telescope.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36The answer is Australia. You've won, Eggheads.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Bad luck, Every Hog Has Its Day. As we can see from the final round,
0:27:45 > 0:27:49with three facing three, that was a very, very even contest,
0:27:49 > 0:27:52and 50-50, as you say, on your macaque-tamarin question.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55You narrowed it down to that, but not to be on the day.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57Thank you very much indeed for taking the Eggheads on.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00But those Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them,
0:28:00 > 0:28:04and their winning streak continues. You won't go home with the £8,000,
0:28:04 > 0:28:07which means the money rolls over to the next show.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10So, congratulations, Eggheads. Who will beat you?
0:28:10 > 0:28:13Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains
0:28:13 > 0:28:16to defeat the Eggheads. £9,000 says they don't.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Until then, goodbye.
