0:00:03 > 0:00:07'These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.'

0:00:09 > 0:00:12'Together, they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:12 > 0:00:16'arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.'

0:00:17 > 0:00:19'The question is - can they be beaten?'

0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of quiz challengers

0:00:26 > 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 > 0:00:36Taking on our quiz Goliaths today are Murphmania.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39They all met at Plymouth University

0:00:39 > 0:00:42and, aside from their shared love of football,

0:00:42 > 0:00:47do a great deal to raise awareness of the Teenage Cancer Trust.

0:00:47 > 0:00:51Hi, Ryan here. I'm 29 and I'm in IT sales.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54I'm Mark, I'm 25 and a trainee analytical scientist.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57I'm James, I'm 25 and a product manager.

0:00:57 > 0:01:01I'm Jamie, I'm 25 and I'm a recruitment consultant.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04I'm Jonathan, I'm 25 and I work in IT sales.

0:01:04 > 0:01:09Ryan and team, welcome. Tell us why you're called Murphmania.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12It's actually a Twitter campaign that we've set up

0:01:12 > 0:01:16due to a friend and team-mate of ours at university of Plymouth.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19We played football with him.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22Unfortunately, he had cancer and lost a leg.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25We don't want to make a big deal of it, X Factor style,

0:01:25 > 0:01:28Coldplay in the background kind of thing,

0:01:28 > 0:01:32but that's what's happened and we want to raise awareness on Twitter.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35Tell us his name. Ben. And he'll be watching today?

0:01:35 > 0:01:39I hope so! So he's Ben Murphy, in fact, hence the name.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42OK, well, good luck to you guys.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46And every day there is £1,000 up for grabs for our challengers.

0:01:46 > 0:01:51If you fail to beat the Eggheads, it rolls over to the next show.

0:01:51 > 0:01:56It's getting exciting because the Eggheads have won the last 20 games,

0:01:56 > 0:02:00which means £21,000 says you can't beat them today.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03Would you like to have a go? We'll have a try. Why not?

0:02:03 > 0:02:08The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of geography.

0:02:08 > 0:02:13What shall we do? It's got to be... Mark or Jonathan.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15Do you want to go for it or me?

0:02:15 > 0:02:19Jon? The likelihood of entertainment or something coming up,

0:02:19 > 0:02:21do you want to go for it?

0:02:21 > 0:02:25I think we'll go with Mark for this round. I'll go for this one.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28OK. Mark. Now, you can choose an Egghead.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31Which one looks lost? Well, they all do!

0:02:31 > 0:02:34I think they all do, spiritually.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36Got to be Dave. It's got to be.

0:02:36 > 0:02:42We think Tremendous Knowledge Dave doesn't know where he is.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45HE LAUGHS OK!

0:02:45 > 0:02:49Depends where I've been. And how his football team's doing.

0:02:49 > 0:02:54OK, Mark from Murphmania versus Dave from the Eggheads.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58To ensure there's no conferring, please go to the question room.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02So how come you got volunteered for geography, Mark?

0:03:02 > 0:03:06I think I'm probably the best - although Jonathan would argue -

0:03:06 > 0:03:09I think I'm the best at geography. And you've done a lot of cycling?

0:03:09 > 0:03:13Yeah, I cycled through France with my dad. We did 11 days,

0:03:13 > 0:03:1575 miles a day on average

0:03:15 > 0:03:18and we went from Saint-Malo in the north, down the west coast,

0:03:18 > 0:03:22cut across down the Canal du Midi and ended up in Narbonne.

0:03:22 > 0:03:26That sounds exhausting, but also rather wonderful.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29It was probably the best and worst experience of my life.

0:03:29 > 0:03:33Geography is the subject. You can choose to go first or second.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38Here we go, Mark. Good luck.

0:03:38 > 0:03:43The Flemish Diamond is a nickname given to a metropolitan region

0:03:43 > 0:03:45of which European country?

0:03:47 > 0:03:49OK, then. Flemish.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53So... I wouldn't associate Flemish with Spain.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57For some reason, Belgium's standing out for me.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01I can't make a relationship between Flemish and these answers though.

0:04:01 > 0:04:02Erm...

0:04:02 > 0:04:05OK. So I'm going to...

0:04:05 > 0:04:08I'm going to guess between Belgium and Denmark

0:04:08 > 0:04:10because I don't think it's Spain.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13I'm going to go for Denmark, Jeremy.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16THEY GROAN You got it wrong.

0:04:16 > 0:04:20You were right to go for one or the other, but it's Belgium.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23OK. Sorry, Mark. Bad start. Yeah, bad start.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25Tremendous Knowledge Dave -

0:04:25 > 0:04:29what name is sometimes given to the heavily industrialised areas

0:04:29 > 0:04:33of the Northeastern and Midwest United States,

0:04:33 > 0:04:37characterised by having older factories and industries?

0:04:40 > 0:04:43I've never heard of this at all.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47I'm going to go Rust Belt, but I'll be regretting it, I'm sure.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50Rust Belt. Rust Belt is the right answer.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52I've never heard of that phrase!

0:04:52 > 0:04:57It comes up at elections because of the Republicans' attempts to win

0:04:57 > 0:05:01in places like Pennsylvania and Ohio and it's Joe the plumber...

0:05:01 > 0:05:04Indiana. Exactly, yeah.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07Right, I've got you. So that's where you tend to hear it.

0:05:07 > 0:05:11Mark, your question - the Five Pits Trail is a walking and cycling route

0:05:11 > 0:05:14in which English county?

0:05:17 > 0:05:20OK. I went to university in Plymouth, which is is Devon

0:05:20 > 0:05:24and they've got a nice coastline round there, so it could be there,

0:05:24 > 0:05:27but I think I would've heard of it.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31Derbyshire's got a lot of caving and things like that round there,

0:05:31 > 0:05:33so the pits comes in with that.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36I'm going to go for Derbyshire

0:05:36 > 0:05:40based on the fact that there's the pits and caving round there.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43Good stuff, Mark. It's right. Derbyshire it is.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45Very good logic.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48OK, Dave, your question -

0:05:48 > 0:05:51the Eternity Range of mountains, which contains peaks

0:05:51 > 0:05:53called Faith, Hope and Charity,

0:05:53 > 0:05:56is located on which land mass?

0:05:59 > 0:06:02I'm going to go Antarctica.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04Straight there with it.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Spot on. Antarctica is right.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10So he's taken the lead, Mark. You need to get this one right.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Yeah, OK. Here we go.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15The disputed region of South Ossetia

0:06:15 > 0:06:19lies within which former Soviet republic?

0:06:23 > 0:06:26I'm not sure about this one.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30I'm just trying to think where all these countries are, geographically.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33Kazakhstan is a huge country just south of Russia.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36Georgia's really small.

0:06:36 > 0:06:40Belarus seems too far down. South Ossetia.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43I'm going to discount Belarus. It seems too far down.

0:06:43 > 0:06:47I'm pretty sure there were rockets taking off from Kazakhstan

0:06:47 > 0:06:49and the Russians weren't happy.

0:06:49 > 0:06:53That's the only dispute I can think of with any relationship at all,

0:06:53 > 0:06:56so I'm going to go for Kazakhstan.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59OK. Team, what do you think here?

0:06:59 > 0:07:02ALL: Georgia. They all say Georgia.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04It is Georgia. OK.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07Sorry, Mark, you've been knocked out by Dave.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10Well, it's early days for this team.

0:07:10 > 0:07:14Both of you, please come back, rejoin your team-mates.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19OK, Ryan, not the ideal start. Bad luck, Mark.

0:07:19 > 0:07:23Any thoughts? We should've put Jon up, definitely.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27He would've got them. He knew all the answers and Mark's let us down.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29THEY ALL LAUGH

0:07:29 > 0:07:32Let myself down, let my team down...

0:07:32 > 0:07:35There was a cycling question, which is his thing. The one I got.

0:07:35 > 0:07:41Yeah, you got that right. Good guess. I see you're a tough captain.

0:07:41 > 0:07:46As it stands, Murphmania have lost one brain from the final round.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Plenty of time to turn it around.

0:07:48 > 0:07:52The Eggheads are intact. Tremendous Knowledge Dave is in the final.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55The next subject is film and television.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Murphmania, who wants this?

0:07:57 > 0:08:00I think this time Jonathan's going to step up.

0:08:00 > 0:08:04OK, Jonathan against which Egghead? Can't be Dave.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07Who do you fancy? I think Chris, yeah?

0:08:07 > 0:08:11Yeah. We're going to take Chris down. So Jonathan from Murphmania

0:08:11 > 0:08:14is going to take Chris down on film and TV.

0:08:14 > 0:08:18To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.

0:08:19 > 0:08:23So you were the choice for film and TV, Jonathan.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26It appears so. TV I'm quite strong with,

0:08:26 > 0:08:29but I think, film - there's certain gaps in my knowledge,

0:08:29 > 0:08:32but let's see how we get on.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35I've got a list of places you've been to - really unusual places.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38Kavos, Malia, Magaluf and Zante.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Yes, that was the university football tours

0:08:41 > 0:08:44where no football whatsoever was played.

0:08:44 > 0:08:49There was a large group, maybe 35 of us, went out to these islands

0:08:49 > 0:08:51and have quite an enjoyable week.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54OK, no-one ended up in jail? No-one got hurt?

0:08:55 > 0:08:57THEY ALL LAUGH

0:08:57 > 0:09:00Don't answer that. Yeah, I won't answer.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03OK, it's film and television.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06Jonathan, would you like the first or second set of questions?

0:09:06 > 0:09:08I'd like to go first, please.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13Here's your first question.

0:09:13 > 0:09:17The TV drama series The Flying Doctors, first broadcast in 1986,

0:09:17 > 0:09:19was set in which country?

0:09:22 > 0:09:24OK, so...

0:09:24 > 0:09:28Australia was what I had in my head before the options came up.

0:09:28 > 0:09:32I can't associate it with the other two,

0:09:32 > 0:09:35so I will have to go with Australia.

0:09:35 > 0:09:39And Australia is the right answer. Lots of distance to travel.

0:09:40 > 0:09:45Chris - in 2012, Britney Spears joined the judging panel

0:09:45 > 0:09:48of the American version of which TV talent show?

0:09:51 > 0:09:54I avoid all these sorts of shows like the plague.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57They cause me a sharp pain.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Britney Spears - which one would she go for?

0:10:00 > 0:10:04The highest profile, presumably, so it's got to be American Idol.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07No! It's The X Factor.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09Uh-huh.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12Jonathan, you've got a scent of blood here.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Don't let the chance go.

0:10:14 > 0:10:18The Oceanic Six were characters in which US TV series?

0:10:23 > 0:10:28OK. I remember watching The X-Files quite a lot when I was younger.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30My parents were quite big on it.

0:10:30 > 0:10:34There was only really two characters in that - Mulder and Scully -

0:10:34 > 0:10:36so I can't think it was The X-Files.

0:10:36 > 0:10:40And it just doesn't ring any bells with vampires and Buffy.

0:10:40 > 0:10:44It makes sense with Lost. They were on an island in the ocean,

0:10:44 > 0:10:47so I'm going to put Lost as my answer.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50You've got two out of two. Lost is correct.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52Chris, your question -

0:10:52 > 0:10:54who plays the role of Dr Watson

0:10:54 > 0:10:59in the US Sherlock-Holmes-inspired TV series Elementary,

0:10:59 > 0:11:01which was first broadcast in 2012?

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Yeah.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Well, it's not Ellen DeGeneres, she's a talk-show hostess.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Er...

0:11:14 > 0:11:17Don't think it's Calista Flockhart.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19I think I'll play Lucy Liu.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22Lucy Liu. Is it right or wrong, Eggheads?

0:11:22 > 0:11:26Right. It's right. Yes, it is. Well done, Chris.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29But if you get this right, Jonathan,

0:11:29 > 0:11:32you knock out Chris with a great big thump.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36What is the first name of the film-director sister Ralph Fiennes,

0:11:36 > 0:11:41whose works include Chromophobia and Onegin?

0:11:44 > 0:11:48OK, well, I haven't got a clue, to be honest.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51I mean, I'm really not sure,

0:11:51 > 0:11:55so I'm going down the middle with Penelope. I really don't know.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Penelope. Team-mates, do you know?

0:11:57 > 0:12:02Not a clue, but judging by Daphne's reaction, that wasn't right.

0:12:02 > 0:12:05The name before Fiennes - what is it, Eggs?

0:12:05 > 0:12:08Martha. Martha. Martha they all say. OK. Not a clue.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10Chris has a chance to come back in.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13Chris, if you get this wrong, you're out.

0:12:13 > 0:12:18Which English actress plays a woman who falls in love with a chimpanzee

0:12:18 > 0:12:22in the 1986 film Max, Mon Amour?

0:12:26 > 0:12:30Well, they're all known for slightly kinky stuff, aren't they?

0:12:30 > 0:12:32Er...

0:12:32 > 0:12:34Max, Mon Amour, which is French.

0:12:34 > 0:12:40Jane Birkin did Je T'Aime Non Plus avec Serge Gainsbourg.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Is it her?

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Don't think it's Charlotte Rampling.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48Don't... think it's Sarah Miles.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52On account of the French connection, I'll go with Jane Birkin.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55Not Jane Birkin, it's Charlotte Rampling. You've been knocked out.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58Jonathan, you've beaten an Egghead

0:12:58 > 0:13:00and you will be in the final round.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03Things are turning for Murphmania.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06Please, both of you, rejoin your team-mates.

0:13:07 > 0:13:12As it stands, Murphmania have lost one brain, the Eggheads have too.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15Good work. The next subject is arts and books.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18Who wants this? Who wants to go up out of you three?

0:13:18 > 0:13:22Luckily, I've already gone. I know nothing.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25This is going to be a sacrificial lamb.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28We read Match magazine, that's about it.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Who's going to go? I'm stronger on other things.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33I know you don't think you're that strong,

0:13:33 > 0:13:37but you do come out with some good arts and books answers.

0:13:37 > 0:13:41Out of the three of us. Looks like I'm the sacrificial lamb!

0:13:41 > 0:13:44OK, it's Jamie from Murphmania against which Egghead?

0:13:44 > 0:13:47Can't be Chris, can't be Dave.

0:13:47 > 0:13:51Yeah. Daphne, please. Daphne can have an easy round.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54All right, Jamie from Murphmania versus Daphne.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57You'll be knocked out now they've said that!

0:13:57 > 0:14:00Please go to the question room now.

0:14:01 > 0:14:05Arts and books. Jamie, first or second set of questions?

0:14:05 > 0:14:07I think I'd like to go first.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12Good luck. Here's your first question.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14The annual literary Funny Prize,

0:14:14 > 0:14:19which is awarded to writers of books aimed at readers aged 14 and under,

0:14:19 > 0:14:22is named after which writer?

0:14:25 > 0:14:27OK.

0:14:27 > 0:14:31If it's that sort of age group, the one that sticks out is Roald Dahl,

0:14:31 > 0:14:33so I'll go with Roald Dahl.

0:14:33 > 0:14:37Roald Dahl is the right answer, well done.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40Daphne - the Rijksmuseum -

0:14:40 > 0:14:46R-I-J-K-S-M-U-S-E-U-M, the Rijksmuseum -

0:14:46 > 0:14:49is an art gallery in which European city?

0:14:51 > 0:14:54It's in Amsterdam.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58You said that with such certainty, I thought you must've been there.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01No! I've been to Holland.

0:15:01 > 0:15:05How did you know it was there? It's a quiz question, Jeremy.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08She just knows everything!

0:15:08 > 0:15:10Yes, you're right.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13OK, your question, Jamie -

0:15:13 > 0:15:15Proesch and Passmore

0:15:15 > 0:15:19are the surnames of which collaborative artists

0:15:19 > 0:15:22who won the Turner Prize in 1986?

0:15:27 > 0:15:31I'll spell them for you. Proesch is P-R-O-E-S-C-H.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34Passmore is as you would imagine.

0:15:34 > 0:15:38OK, that's before my time and I'm struggling with that,

0:15:38 > 0:15:42so this one's going to have to be a stab in the dark.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44I will go with...

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Robert and Ray.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50No, it's Gilbert and George.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53OK, Daphne, your question to pull ahead here.

0:15:53 > 0:15:57Who created the fictional cities of Minas Tirith

0:15:57 > 0:15:59and Minas Morgul

0:15:59 > 0:16:01in an epic fantasy novel?

0:16:08 > 0:16:10Tolkien?

0:16:12 > 0:16:14You're talking Tolkien.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16You're correct.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19OK. Jamie, I'm sorry, she's playing well.

0:16:19 > 0:16:24It means you need this question, otherwise you'll be knocked out.

0:16:24 > 0:16:28According to a quote by Mark Twain, libraries would be better places

0:16:28 > 0:16:31if they contained no works by which author?

0:16:35 > 0:16:37Mm. Up against it here.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Erm...

0:16:39 > 0:16:44Again, the name isn't jumping out at me.

0:16:44 > 0:16:45Erm...

0:16:45 > 0:16:49I don't think someone would say that about Shakespeare.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Edgar Allan Poe...

0:16:51 > 0:16:55It's a stab in the dark, but I'm going for Jane Austen.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57You're right, well done. Jane Austen it is.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00So you're level with Daphne.

0:17:00 > 0:17:04Daphne, if you get this right, you will be in the final.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Which crime writer created a series of books

0:17:07 > 0:17:11featuring the Brighton-based detective Roy Grace?

0:17:16 > 0:17:18Sorry. It's Peter James.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21I'll bet you've read them, have you?

0:17:21 > 0:17:24No, it's another writer where I've got them all

0:17:24 > 0:17:27and I haven't had time to read them. One day.

0:17:27 > 0:17:32The answer is Peter James, you've got it right, so you take the round.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35It's hard to play her when she gets three in a row.

0:17:35 > 0:17:40You won't be in the final. Please, both of you, come back in.

0:17:41 > 0:17:45So Murphmania have lost two brains from the final round

0:17:45 > 0:17:47whilst the Eggheads have lost one.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50The next subject is sport. Is that good?

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Come on, yes. Very good.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54The only thing we know about!

0:17:54 > 0:17:57It's got to be James.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59There's two of us that like sport,

0:17:59 > 0:18:02but we're going to stick James up

0:18:02 > 0:18:05and we've got to take the champ out.

0:18:05 > 0:18:07OK, this could be interesting.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11You're very sporty. Sport brought you together, in a way.

0:18:11 > 0:18:14Probably wouldn't say the same of this team over here.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16James from Murphmania

0:18:16 > 0:18:21versus Kevin from the Eggheads on sport - who will win this contest?

0:18:21 > 0:18:23Please go to the question room.

0:18:24 > 0:18:28This is a sporting team, James, but they chose you. You love your sport?

0:18:28 > 0:18:32Yes, it was a toss-up between me and Ryan,

0:18:32 > 0:18:35but, yeah, I love sport, so hopefully it'll go well.

0:18:35 > 0:18:39Let's see. You can choose to go first or second, James.

0:18:39 > 0:18:40I'll go first, please.

0:18:43 > 0:18:45Good luck. Your first question -

0:18:45 > 0:18:49what is the lowest number of darts that must be thrown

0:18:49 > 0:18:52to win a game of 501?

0:18:53 > 0:18:569.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59You didn't have to spend a second thinking about that.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01You're quite right. 9 it is.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06Your question, Kevin - in November 2012,

0:19:06 > 0:19:11which Formula 1 team had its first Grand Prix victory in 25 years?

0:19:16 > 0:19:18Just thinking... HE MUTTERS

0:19:21 > 0:19:24I think it's got to be Lotus.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28Yes, it was at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. It was Lotus.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31OK. James -

0:19:31 > 0:19:34how many major golf titles did Jack Nicklaus win

0:19:34 > 0:19:37between 1962 and 1986?

0:19:40 > 0:19:42I know it's not 24.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44Erm...

0:19:44 > 0:19:46My gut is that it's 18,

0:19:46 > 0:19:50so I'm going to stick with that and go for 18.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52Good on the numbers here.

0:19:52 > 0:19:559 was correct and 18 is correct. Well done.

0:19:55 > 0:19:5718 is right.

0:19:57 > 0:20:02OK. Kevin - in a September 2012 match against Ukraine,

0:20:02 > 0:20:06who became the oldest footballer to be sent off for England?

0:20:10 > 0:20:12I really don't know.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15I have a vague recollection of the incident,

0:20:15 > 0:20:18but I didn't see that particular match

0:20:18 > 0:20:20and I can't remember who it was.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23The only faint thing that's ringing at the back of my mind

0:20:23 > 0:20:27is Steven Gerrard, so I'll go for Gerrard.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30You're right. Steven Gerrard.

0:20:30 > 0:20:35Third question. This is sometimes where challengers come unstuck.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37James, here we go.

0:20:37 > 0:20:43Which term, deriving from a Slovakian handball player's surname,

0:20:43 > 0:20:47is applied to foreign cricketers who play for a county,

0:20:47 > 0:20:51but are not classed as overseas players?

0:20:54 > 0:20:58Kolpak. 100 per cent.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00OK. You're right.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02Go on, James. Never doubted it.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05Three out of three and very swiftly.

0:21:05 > 0:21:07Kevin, get this wrong, you're out.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09The World Elephant Polo Tournament

0:21:09 > 0:21:12takes place annually in which country?

0:21:15 > 0:21:19I'm... thinking it's Nepal, but I may be wrong there.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22Technically, it could be any of them,

0:21:22 > 0:21:27but I know that big tournaments are held in Nepal, so I'll go for Nepal.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Let's see. James, do you know?

0:21:30 > 0:21:34Wouldn't have a clue. I'd guess Nepal or Sri Lanka,

0:21:34 > 0:21:37but I have no idea. I'm glad I went first!

0:21:37 > 0:21:41Nepal is correct. You both have three. We go to sudden death.

0:21:41 > 0:21:44I don't give you alternatives, OK, James? Yep.

0:21:44 > 0:21:47Which Renfrewshire town

0:21:47 > 0:21:50is home to St Mirren FC?

0:21:51 > 0:21:55Geography is not my strong point, I honestly don't have a clue.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59Obviously St Mirren are based in Scotland.

0:21:59 > 0:22:00Erm...

0:22:00 > 0:22:04For some reason, I think it could be Dumfries, but I'm not sure why.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06Erm...

0:22:06 > 0:22:09So I'll go with that - Dumfries.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13The town that is home to St Mirren FC is Paisley.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17OK, Kevin. Sudden death,

0:22:17 > 0:22:21which means that you can go through to the final in one stroke now.

0:22:21 > 0:22:25The Pakistani Test-cricket ground

0:22:25 > 0:22:29named the Gaddafi Stadium in 1974

0:22:29 > 0:22:31is in which city?

0:22:31 > 0:22:33I think... There are, obviously,

0:22:33 > 0:22:39potentially any number of Pakistani cities that it could be.

0:22:40 > 0:22:45The one that popped into my head - I have to go on the first instinct,

0:22:45 > 0:22:48but I have no idea whether it's correct -

0:22:48 > 0:22:51is Lahore. So I'll say Lahore.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54Team, is he right? Yeah.

0:22:54 > 0:22:58Comfirmation from Murphmania. Kevin, you got it right - Lahore.

0:22:58 > 0:23:03You've won through on sport. Sorry, James. Beaten by an Egghead.

0:23:03 > 0:23:07Yeah, he did really well. And you won't be in the final round.

0:23:07 > 0:23:11Both of you, return to your teams and we will play that final.

0:23:12 > 0:23:16This is what we've been heading towards - our final round,

0:23:16 > 0:23:18which is general knowledge.

0:23:18 > 0:23:22Those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be taking part,

0:23:22 > 0:23:26so that is Mark, James and Jamie from Murphmania

0:23:26 > 0:23:28and Chris from the Eggheads.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30Would you please leave the studio?

0:23:31 > 0:23:36So, Ryan and Jonathan, you are playing to win Murphmania £21,000.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Judith, Kevin, Dave and Daphne,

0:23:39 > 0:23:43you play for something money can't buy - the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46I'll ask each team three questions in turn.

0:23:46 > 0:23:50This time, the questions are general knowledge and you can confer.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53So, Murphmania, the question is are your two brains

0:23:53 > 0:23:56better than the Eggheads' four?

0:23:56 > 0:23:59Ryan and Jonathan, first or second?

0:23:59 > 0:24:01We'll go first.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05OK, here we go. Good luck to you.

0:24:05 > 0:24:09Which superhero has a secret headquarters in the Arctic

0:24:09 > 0:24:11known as the Fortress of Solitude?

0:24:15 > 0:24:17Superman...

0:24:17 > 0:24:19I... I've got nothing else.

0:24:19 > 0:24:23It makes sense. Gotham City and... Yeah, Gotham City for Batman.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26Spider-Man... Don't know. Not really into comics.

0:24:26 > 0:24:30But I think Superman was the one that jumped out.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32That's what we have to go with.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34So we'll go for Superman, please.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37Superman is the right answer. Good.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39One out of one. Good start.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41Your question, Eggheads.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44On what items of apparel

0:24:44 > 0:24:47would you be most likely to see cleats?

0:24:49 > 0:24:51Cleats. OK, Judith?

0:24:51 > 0:24:55What are they? The little studs underneath shoes.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58Erm, that would be shoes.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00You're right. Shoes is correct.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Right, Murphmania.

0:25:03 > 0:25:07The musician Jon Lord, who died in 2012,

0:25:07 > 0:25:11was best known as a founding member of which group?

0:25:16 > 0:25:18I'm looking at you, Jon.

0:25:20 > 0:25:24'70s music. Ten years before we were born. Not too keen on.

0:25:25 > 0:25:29I think my dad's quite a big fan of Deep Purple,

0:25:29 > 0:25:31so I don't recognise him from that.

0:25:31 > 0:25:36I can't say... I don't know much about the other bands,

0:25:36 > 0:25:40but I think, Deep Purple and Pink Floyd, we'd maybe have heard of him.

0:25:40 > 0:25:45That's my reasoning. Better than me. I really don't know.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49So I'll with Judas Priest. Yeah, we'll go Judas Priest, then.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51Judas Priest is your answer.

0:25:51 > 0:25:54So your dad is a Deep Purple fan?

0:25:54 > 0:25:58Yeah, so he'll kill me if it's Deep Purple or Pink Floyd, but...

0:25:58 > 0:26:03You were going the right way then diverted and your dad will kill you

0:26:03 > 0:26:05because it is Deep Purple. Sorry. Sorry.

0:26:05 > 0:26:09I know that's painful. Because you're close to that.

0:26:09 > 0:26:13Here's your question, Eggheads - what type of creature is a kudu?

0:26:16 > 0:26:18Antelope. It is an antelope.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21It's always an antelope when there's a choice.

0:26:21 > 0:26:25Is that one of your rules? Yes. Islands live in the Pacific,

0:26:25 > 0:26:29Cheese. Cheese. And it's always an antelope.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32Antelope is the correct answer.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35OK. So they've got two.

0:26:35 > 0:26:39Come on, courage, guys. You can do it. Third question.

0:26:39 > 0:26:42What was the name of the Texan politician

0:26:42 > 0:26:45who was a passenger

0:26:45 > 0:26:49in the car in which John F Kennedy was shot

0:26:49 > 0:26:53and who later made a failed attempt to run for President?

0:26:58 > 0:27:01Do we know? I watched a documentary on it.

0:27:01 > 0:27:05I've watched numerous documentaries on it.

0:27:05 > 0:27:09I thought I'd recognise one of those names slightly more than the rest.

0:27:09 > 0:27:13I'm trying to think of a brash Texas name!

0:27:13 > 0:27:17The only name that's stuck out for me is Henry Grover,

0:27:17 > 0:27:20but when you mention about a brash Texas name

0:27:20 > 0:27:24like Will Wilson... Will Wilson.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26I just...

0:27:26 > 0:27:29Skip, mate, it's down to you unfortunately.

0:27:29 > 0:27:33What shall we do? Go with... You can choose, mate.

0:27:33 > 0:27:36Will Wilson.

0:27:36 > 0:27:39Will Wilson. It wasn't Will Wilson, it was John Connally.

0:27:39 > 0:27:42The answer is John Connally

0:27:42 > 0:27:46so we have to say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won!

0:27:52 > 0:27:56Commiserations, Murphmania. Two wrong answers in the final round,

0:27:56 > 0:28:00but great fun to play you guys or to see them play against you.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Good to hear about your charity work. Cheers.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06The Eggheads have done what comes naturally

0:28:06 > 0:28:08and their winning streak continues.

0:28:08 > 0:28:11That does mean you don't take home the £21,000,

0:28:11 > 0:28:16which means that the money rolls over to our next show.

0:28:16 > 0:28:19Eggheads, congratulations. You know, I can't see you losing.

0:28:19 > 0:28:23Here we go! That's it.

0:28:23 > 0:28:26Join us next time to see if a new team have the brains

0:28:26 > 0:28:29to defeat the Eggheads. £22,000 says they don't.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31Until then, goodbye.
