0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 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 > 0:00:19The question is...
0:00:19 > 0:00:20can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 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 > 0:00:33they are the Eggheads.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36And challenging our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:36 > 0:00:37are The Safety Fire.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39This team are all members
0:00:39 > 0:00:43of the same band and have been friends since their schooldays.
0:00:43 > 0:00:44Let's meet them.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Hi. I'm Lori, 26, and I play bass guitar.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50Hi. I'm Calvin. I'm 25 and I'm the drummer.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Hi. I'm Sean. I'm 25 and the singer in the band.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56Hi. I'm Jo. I'm 26. I play guitar in the band and I'm a tattooist.
0:00:56 > 0:01:01Hi. I'm Des. I'm 25. I'm a guitarist and also a music producer.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Lori and team, welcome to you.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06And the band is called The Safety Fire
0:01:06 > 0:01:07and you're all in it.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10Yes. We are The Safety Fire. We're a progressive metal band.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14We've known each other for years since the age of 11.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16I've actually known Calvin since I was four.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19And we started band through friendship
0:01:19 > 0:01:21and now we travel around the world, play music
0:01:21 > 0:01:24and it's probably the best thing ever!
0:01:24 > 0:01:27Yeah, it probably is the best thing ever!
0:01:27 > 0:01:30"Progressive metal" is the only thing I'm struggling with.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Progressive usually means songs are a bit longer...
0:01:33 > 0:01:35- and a bit more instrumental.- Indeed.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38But the metal bit, I'm thinking AC/DC.
0:01:38 > 0:01:39How do you put those two together?
0:01:39 > 0:01:44Imagine coming from the roots of Yes or King Crimson,
0:01:44 > 0:01:48then adding real solid elements of metal.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52So you mention AC/DC. That's a bit old school. Things have moved on in metal,
0:01:52 > 0:01:55but you're kind of coming from the right angle, at least.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Judith, is this your kind of music?
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Oh, absolutely. Huge Hammers?
0:02:00 > 0:02:02You're a fan!
0:02:02 > 0:02:04I'm a fan.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Huge Hammers?! Where did that come from?
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Huge Hammers. It's one of their...things.
0:02:08 > 0:02:09ALL LAUGH
0:02:09 > 0:02:12It was our first single that we released.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Well, that... You've taken me by surprise, Judith.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17She's obviously a fan with the shirt, as well.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19She's in the front at all of our shows.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21I can imagine that. Needed restraining!
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Every day there is £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33So, Safety Fire, the Eggheads have won the last 25 games.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Which is sort of good news, really.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41So it means £26,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44First head-to-head battle is on the subject of Film & Television.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Who would like this?
0:02:47 > 0:02:50- Do you want to go?- I'll go for it, if you like. Sure.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52OK, Calvin.
0:02:52 > 0:02:53And which Egghead?
0:02:53 > 0:02:56Go straight at it.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57- Kevin.- Straight at Kevin.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Charge him down. It's the best way.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03Calvin from Safety Fire versus Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05To ensure there is no conferring,
0:03:05 > 0:03:08would you please take your positions in the Question Room.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11OK, Calvin, good luck. Film & Television.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15And you can choose the first or second set of questions.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17I'll go first, I think.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Here we go with your first question.
0:03:22 > 0:03:26Which TV sitcom featured James Fleet as Hugo Horton?
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Well, I was never a big fan of The Inbetweeners.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38So I'm not sure of any of the characters in that.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40So that doesn't help me.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42I watched a lot of Peep Show
0:03:42 > 0:03:45when it first started, so I'm fairly familiar with that
0:03:45 > 0:03:48and I'm pretty sure there was no-one in that called Hugo.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- So I'll go for The Vicar Of Dibley. - Spot-on with that, Calvin.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Vicar Of Dibley it is.
0:03:53 > 0:03:54First point to you.
0:03:54 > 0:03:55Kevin.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Who played the title role in four Superman films
0:03:58 > 0:04:02between 1978 and 1987?
0:04:06 > 0:04:08EGGHEADS LAUGH
0:04:08 > 0:04:10I love the other choices there!
0:04:10 > 0:04:14I think there's time for an alternative universe.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16It was Christopher Reeve.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Christopher Reeve is the right answer.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Calvin, your question.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Which film released in the UK
0:04:23 > 0:04:24in January 2013
0:04:24 > 0:04:27was based on the book Team Of Rivals
0:04:27 > 0:04:29by Doris Kearns Goodwin?
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Er...I have not seen
0:04:38 > 0:04:40all of these films,
0:04:40 > 0:04:41so I'm really not sure on any of this.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43It'll have to be a stab in the dark.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47I'll go for Lincoln.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49You play very well.
0:04:49 > 0:04:50Lincoln is the right answer.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52What a guy!
0:04:52 > 0:04:57OK, Kevin. Which character in the US TV series Sex And The City
0:04:57 > 0:05:00married Trey MacDougal?
0:05:04 > 0:05:05Oh, dear.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Never watched it.
0:05:09 > 0:05:10I'll try Miranda.
0:05:10 > 0:05:11You guys know?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- Pretty sure it's Charlotte. - It's Charlotte.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16You've got it wrong, Kevin.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18So we are back with you, Calvin.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22This is looking not bad, because if you get this right, you've knocked out the master.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25- Sure.- The performer John Barrowman was born
0:05:25 > 0:05:27in which country?
0:05:32 > 0:05:33Er...
0:05:33 > 0:05:36I have no idea on this one.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40I'm going to take a punt at Wales.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Calvin, sorry, the answer is Scotland.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44- Never mind.- You're not out yet.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Another question for Kevin.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48He can mess it up.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50Which actress was the recipient of the first
0:05:50 > 0:05:53United Nations Correspondents Association
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Citizen of the World award in 2003?
0:06:02 > 0:06:05I don't know it, but they all...
0:06:06 > 0:06:08..they all do good works,
0:06:08 > 0:06:10and I suppose the most prominent one, who's been
0:06:10 > 0:06:13doing them for some years, does lots of stuff with the UN
0:06:13 > 0:06:17and various other organisations all over the world...
0:06:19 > 0:06:21..is Angelina Jolie.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25I don't know this, but I assume she's got to be the...
0:06:25 > 0:06:28the percentage guess here,
0:06:28 > 0:06:31just because of the amount she's very prominently done.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Although I'm sure the others have done their fair share as well.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36So I'll have to go for Angelina Jolie.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Angelina Jolie is the right answer. You've levelled it up.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42It's two points each, Calvin.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44We go to Sudden Death now.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46- Bit harder, because I don't give you alternatives.- Yes.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50Amanda Holden played the English teacher Miss Titley
0:06:50 > 0:06:53in which TV series that started in 1999?
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Well, I have no idea about this.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58I was thinking Teachers,
0:06:58 > 0:07:00but I think that that's quite obvious
0:07:00 > 0:07:01and I don't think she was in that,
0:07:01 > 0:07:06so I'm going to take a punt at a different TV show and...
0:07:09 > 0:07:11I'll say Waterloo Road.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14Not The Teachers, not Waterloo Road. The Grimleys.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16I've never even heard of it!
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Kevin, your question. If you get this right, you're in the final.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22"He just landed the gig of his life, fifth grade"
0:07:22 > 0:07:27was a tagline for which 2003 film starring Jack Black?
0:07:27 > 0:07:29It's the one where he's a rock musician
0:07:29 > 0:07:33who goes to teach a bunch of kids
0:07:33 > 0:07:36under false documentation.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38What's it...? School Of Rock.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40School Of Rock.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43School Of Rock. You'll know this. Is he right?
0:07:43 > 0:07:44Yes.
0:07:44 > 0:07:48Kevin, you've got the thumbs-up from your opponents.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50School Of Rock is the right answer,
0:07:50 > 0:07:52so you've taken the round. Sorry, Calvin.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Well played, though.- That's all right.- You've been knocked out.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Kevin will be in the final.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03So, as it stands, The Safety Fire have lost one brain from the final round,
0:08:03 > 0:08:07whilst the Eggheads have not lost a brain. But it's very early days.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09The next subject for you is Arts & Books.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Who wants this reading...?
0:08:12 > 0:08:13It's got to be Sean.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17- Sean.- I did my degree in literature, so...
0:08:17 > 0:08:18OK.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20So which Egghead?
0:08:20 > 0:08:22I'll take on Dave, Tremendous Knowledge.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26OK, Sean from The Safety Fire versus TKD from the Eggheads -
0:08:26 > 0:08:27Tremendous Knowledge Dave.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34OK, Safety Fire and Sean, we are doing Arts & Books
0:08:34 > 0:08:37and you can choose whether you go first or second against Dave.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39I'd like to go first.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45So here we go. What is the first name
0:08:45 > 0:08:48of the title character in the novel Doctor Zhivago?
0:08:52 > 0:08:53Er...
0:08:53 > 0:08:56I haven't read that book, unfortunately.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58Doctor Zhivago...
0:08:59 > 0:09:02I mean, I'm leaning towards Yuri.
0:09:03 > 0:09:08Because that name just sounds more like it'd be Yuri...
0:09:09 > 0:09:12I'm going to go for a wild stab and go for Yuri.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Not a great reason, but...
0:09:14 > 0:09:16- Yuri is the correct answer. - Go on, Sean!
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Dave, here's your question.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24The Gracie Fields Theatre is located in which English town?
0:09:27 > 0:09:30It's in her home town. Rochdale.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Rochdale is the correct answer.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Back to you, Sean.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37What is the English title of the novel by the French writer
0:09:37 > 0:09:41Stendhal, of which Julien Sorel is the central character?
0:09:47 > 0:09:48Um...
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Not too sure about this.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53It's a French novel.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56So I don't know if The Blue And The White is more to do with
0:09:56 > 0:09:58sort of national colours of France.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Not sure about the other two.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06I'm going to go for The Blue And The White, based upon that.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09The Blue And The White is wrong. It's The Red And The Black.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Tremendous Knowledge Dave,
0:10:12 > 0:10:14No-One Here Gets Out Alive
0:10:14 > 0:10:16is the biography of which rock star?
0:10:20 > 0:10:22I've not heard of this.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Now...
0:10:25 > 0:10:27I'm just thinking about concerts.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33And in the '60s and early '70s...
0:10:35 > 0:10:37..a lot of problems with Doors concerts.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41So solely on that basis, I would go Jim Morrison
0:10:41 > 0:10:43rather than the other two,
0:10:43 > 0:10:45but it's a total guess.
0:10:45 > 0:10:46Let's see if our band know.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48We think it's Jim Morrison.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51It is Jim Morrison. The logic was absolutely spot-on.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Jim Morrison is the right answer. Of The Doors, of course.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57OK, Sean. Which printing method
0:10:57 > 0:11:01was pioneered by Alois Senefelder in the 18th century,
0:11:01 > 0:11:03using Bavarian limestone?
0:11:08 > 0:11:11I'm not sure. I'm aware of...
0:11:11 > 0:11:15quite familiar with a few lithographs.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20I haven't really heard of intaglio.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25Mimeography - I can only assume that's an exact copy of something.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27I'm going to go with lithography.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Lithography is your answer. It is correct.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Well done.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35So you've got two points.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39And you have to hope that Dave doesn't get the next one.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41If he doesn't, we go to sudden death.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Dave, here's your question.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Christy Mahon is the central character of which play
0:11:45 > 0:11:48first produced in Dublin in 1907?
0:11:55 > 0:11:56Right. Um...
0:11:56 > 0:11:58First thing that came into my head
0:11:58 > 0:12:01before the options came up
0:12:01 > 0:12:05was The Playboy Of The Western World, for some reason.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11JM Synge play, so I will go The Playboy Of The Western World.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14Christy Mahon was the central character
0:12:14 > 0:12:15in The Playboy Of The Western World.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18You've taken the round, Dave. Well done.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Sean, sorry, you've been knocked out by our Eggheads.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Let's see what happens next.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Both of you, please rejoin your teams.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30So...fire has broken out on this side, slightly!
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- But the building has not yet gone down.- It's burning, though!
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Well, there's smoke - let's put it like that!
0:12:35 > 0:12:38You've lost two brains from the final round.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40The Eggheads have not lost a brain yet.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42The next subject is History.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Who from The Safety Fire would like History?
0:12:44 > 0:12:47- Lori.- I've been nominated!
0:12:47 > 0:12:50Lori on History. OK.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52- Oh, God!- Against which Egghead?
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Obviously, not Kevin or Dave.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Pat. I'll lose.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Go for Pat!
0:12:59 > 0:13:00ALL LAUGH
0:13:00 > 0:13:02I'd like to nominate Pat.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Lori from The Safety Fire against Pat from the Eggheads on History.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07Do go to the Question Room now.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10So, Lori, you play the bass in the band.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12I do indeed.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14And you've got an interesting ancestor.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16I do, yes. My ancestor wrote,
0:13:16 > 0:13:19I think maybe co-wrote, the first ever opera.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21His name was Jacopo Peri.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25- Oh!- Eggheads? Look at this - we've got a reaction here.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Dafne?
0:13:27 > 0:13:30- Dafne.- Dafne?- That's the first ever opera.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32- It was called Dafne, we gather? - It was.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34There we are, Lori. How about that?
0:13:34 > 0:13:38He's an answer to a question to the Eggheads one day. No question about that.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42Just make sure I don't shame my ancestry now!
0:13:42 > 0:13:45So it's History and you can choose the first or second set of questions.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48I'll take the first set of questions, please.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54Here we go on History, Lori. Good luck.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58At the end of World War I, Vittorio Orlando
0:13:58 > 0:14:00was the Prime Minister of which country?
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Vittorio Orlando sounds like an Italian name.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Certainly not Greek.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Perhaps he was Corsican. He could have been French.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13But I'm just going to go down the middle with Italy.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Italy is the right answer.
0:14:17 > 0:14:18Pat...
0:14:18 > 0:14:22The National Trust was founded in which century?
0:14:26 > 0:14:27National Trust. Um...
0:14:28 > 0:14:33I think most of the big charities are relatively modern.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36I think back in the Middle Ages, they just didn't care.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38So I suspect the National Trust
0:14:38 > 0:14:40must have been founded in the 19th century.
0:14:41 > 0:14:4419th century is correct, Pat. Well done.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Lori.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49The Battle of Malplaquet in 1709
0:14:49 > 0:14:51was one of the main battles of which conflict?
0:15:00 > 0:15:01OK, trying to place...
0:15:01 > 0:15:03- Shall I spell it for you?- Please.
0:15:03 > 0:15:08M-A-L-P-L-A-Q-U-E-T. All one word.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12Um...Malplaquet with a silent T...
0:15:12 > 0:15:15I'm just going to go straight down the middle.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Another stab in the dark,
0:15:17 > 0:15:20but maybe some reasoning. Hundred Years' War.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23No, it was the War of Spanish Succession.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25OK.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27OK, Eggheads.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Which American general accepted the Japanese surrender
0:15:30 > 0:15:32at the end of World War II with the words,
0:15:32 > 0:15:34"These proceedings are closed"?
0:15:40 > 0:15:42It must have been...
0:15:42 > 0:15:46an extraordinary occasion. It was on the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48And it was Douglas MacArthur.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Douglas MacArthur is the right answer.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53OK, Lori.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Your question. Third question now.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59You've got one wrong so far, so don't get this one wrong
0:15:59 > 0:16:03or the band is going to be a solo performance, or heading that way!
0:16:03 > 0:16:06Cecily Neville, who died in 1495,
0:16:06 > 0:16:10was the mother of Richard III and which other English king?
0:16:15 > 0:16:17OK.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19It's not Henry III.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I'm going to go with...
0:16:24 > 0:16:26- 50/50 - Charles I. - TEAMMATE:- No!
0:16:26 > 0:16:30- Team, do you know?- I don't think it's Charles I. That's too late.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34There was a "no" that came from the soul there.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38When he said Charles I, there was...
0:16:38 > 0:16:41there was a dying cry. It was the singer - that explains it.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44- Edward IV is the answer.- Oh!
0:16:44 > 0:16:45Sorry.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48Edward IV.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50OK, there is a bit of smoke now, Safety Fire.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54So I'm afraid, Lori, you've been knocked out by our Egghead.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Pat, you will be in the final round.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59Come back to us and we'll play on.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04So the Safety Fire have lost three brains from the final round,
0:17:04 > 0:17:07- but their spirits are still high. - For sure!- OK, good.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10The Eggheads have lost no brains.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13You'll like the next subject - it's Music.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16I can't guarantee we'll have progressive metal,
0:17:16 > 0:17:18but who would like to go for this?
0:17:18 > 0:17:19Do you want to do it?
0:17:19 > 0:17:21Go for Jo.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Jo. OK. Against which Egghead, Jo?
0:17:23 > 0:17:26- Judith.- Our biggest fan, Judith.
0:17:26 > 0:17:30Jo from The Safety Fire versus Judith from the Eggheads.
0:17:30 > 0:17:36And a bit of an Eggheads moment now, because I can tell you this is your 900th head-to-head.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38- Is it really?- In Eggheads, yeah.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44So to ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48OK, so, good luck, Jo.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Which question would you like - first or second?
0:17:50 > 0:17:53I've been told I should always go first.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59All right, First question for you, Jo.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02With whom did John Travolta team up
0:18:02 > 0:18:06for the 2012 album release This Christmas?
0:18:11 > 0:18:12Oh, man!
0:18:14 > 0:18:17If I had to guess one, I'd say Olivia Newton-John,
0:18:17 > 0:18:19just because of Grease.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24But he did that dance scene in Pulp Fiction with Uma Thurman.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26He didn't sing with her, so...
0:18:26 > 0:18:29I'd say I'll go for Olivia Newton-John.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Olivia Newton-John is the correct answer.
0:18:32 > 0:18:33Well done.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36OK, Judith. Which group had a UK Top 10 single
0:18:36 > 0:18:42in 1977 with Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft?
0:18:46 > 0:18:47I don't know.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48The Carpenters.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Yes, you're right. How did you guess that, though?
0:18:52 > 0:18:53I just was lucky.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57So one point each. Jo, over to you.
0:18:57 > 0:19:02In 2012, which singer embarked on a week-long 777 tour,
0:19:02 > 0:19:05which saw her play seven world cities in seven days,
0:19:05 > 0:19:10travelling via a plane filled with journalists and fans?
0:19:14 > 0:19:16This is funny,
0:19:16 > 0:19:18cos before I came up here,
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Des told me that every answer would be Rihanna!
0:19:21 > 0:19:24And I'm pretty sure it was Rihanna.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29But they'll kill me if this is wrong. I'm going to go with Rihanna anyway.
0:19:29 > 0:19:30Rihanna is the right answer!
0:19:30 > 0:19:32ALL LAUGH
0:19:32 > 0:19:35- That's just one to add to your rule, then, isn't it, Judith?- Yes.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39Every answer is Rihanna,
0:19:39 > 0:19:41if in Music.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44They're always looking for rules, the Eggheads.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47If in doubt, go Pacific, cheese or antelope.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49And now we have another one - Rihanna.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Judith, your question.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55According to a recurring line in a song in the musical Kiss Me, Kate,
0:19:55 > 0:19:59"Brush up your Shakespeare and they'll all..." What?
0:20:07 > 0:20:09Um...I think it's obey.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13- It's actually kowtow.- Oh, no!
0:20:13 > 0:20:16Brush up your Shakespeare and they'll all kowtow.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19- Oh!- Daphne would have known that. - Yes, she would have.
0:20:19 > 0:20:20She always knows musicals.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22So you have a little chance here.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25She's stuck on one, Jo.
0:20:25 > 0:20:26You can knock out your fan.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30Here we are. Who represented the UK
0:20:30 > 0:20:34at the 1973 Eurovision Song Contest
0:20:34 > 0:20:36with the song Power To All Our Friends,
0:20:36 > 0:20:39finishing third in the competition?
0:20:42 > 0:20:44It sounds like possibly a religious thing.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47Power of God, maybe.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49That would be a Cliff...
0:20:52 > 0:20:55I don't know. I'm going to go with Cliff Richard. I have no idea.
0:20:55 > 0:20:59Anybody over the age of 40?
0:20:59 > 0:21:00Yeah, it's right.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Cliff Richard is right. You've won the round. Well done.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08I'm sorry your 900th one-to-one
0:21:08 > 0:21:12- was not successful.- I had a feeling it would be. Against a real musician,
0:21:12 > 0:21:14I couldn't possibly win!
0:21:14 > 0:21:17- You lost on Music to a musician. That's true. OK.- No disgrace.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21No disgrace at all, Judith, but you are out. Jo, you are in the final.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24If you come back to us, we will play the final round for £26,000.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29So this is what we have been playing towards. It is time for the final round,
0:21:29 > 0:21:32which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:21:34 > 0:21:36won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38So Lori, Calvin and Sean
0:21:38 > 0:21:41from The Safety Fire and Judith from the Eggheads,
0:21:41 > 0:21:44would you please now leave the studio.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47This is exciting.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Jo and Des, you're playing to win The Safety Fire £26,000.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Barry, Pat, Kevin and Dave,
0:21:53 > 0:21:55you are playing for something money can't buy -
0:21:55 > 0:21:57the Eggheads' reputation.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02This time the questions are all General Knowledge
0:22:02 > 0:22:04and you are allowed to confer.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06So, Safety Fire, the question is,
0:22:06 > 0:22:09are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:22:09 > 0:22:11And would you like to go first or second?
0:22:11 > 0:22:13We'll go first.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Here we go. In 2010, the actor James Nesbitt
0:22:19 > 0:22:23was named Chancellor of which university?
0:22:29 > 0:22:30I have absolutely no idea.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Me neither.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Although there was a time travelling through the desert,
0:22:35 > 0:22:38I met a camel who had a telepathic conversation with me,
0:22:38 > 0:22:40which bestowed upon much information.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43- Tremendous Knowledge.- Unfortunately, none of which
0:22:43 > 0:22:44pertains to this question.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45Um...
0:22:47 > 0:22:50- Glamorgan sounds kind of... - Sounds good to me.
0:22:50 > 0:22:51- It's a solid choice.- Like Rihanna.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54Yeah. We'll go for University of Glamorgan.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Right. OK.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58- Do you know the actor we're talking about?- No idea.
0:22:58 > 0:23:02Cold Feet and... What other stuff did he do?
0:23:02 > 0:23:05He's Northern Irish - should have been the University of Ulster!
0:23:05 > 0:23:08That's it. He's the University of Ulster.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11- IRISH ACCENT:- James Nesbitt. He's got that kind of accent.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14OK.
0:23:14 > 0:23:19Eggheads, the presence of alluvial gold in Turkey's Pactolus River
0:23:19 > 0:23:22is attributed to which mythological king
0:23:22 > 0:23:24having bathed in it?
0:23:28 > 0:23:30- Midas, yeah?- Midas.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34This was the man who was given the gift by the god Dionysus
0:23:34 > 0:23:36that everything he touched turned to gold.
0:23:36 > 0:23:40And the only way he could cure it was bathing in the River Pactolus
0:23:40 > 0:23:42and it was King Midas.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44King Midas is the right answer.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Well done. Back to you.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49In cooking, the juice of which fruit is added
0:23:49 > 0:23:55to a hollandaise sauce to make a maltaise sauce?
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Maltaise is M-A-L-TA-I-S-E.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06You'd think that after watching so much...
0:24:06 > 0:24:08Cookery programmes, we'd know this.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10I don't think it's ever come up.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15For whatever reason, something draws me towards blood orange.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17I don't know why exactly, but...
0:24:17 > 0:24:20- It's like Rihanna!- Just like Rihanna!
0:24:20 > 0:24:23- It draws you in by the...- I'll go with that. I have no idea.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26We'll go for blood orange.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29You're right.
0:24:29 > 0:24:30Well done!
0:24:34 > 0:24:35Blood orange. I'm so glad you're right,
0:24:35 > 0:24:39because that sudden lunge at the answer was making me nervous. OK.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41All right, Eggheads. Lots of money
0:24:41 > 0:24:43to play here, and they got one right,
0:24:43 > 0:24:46so let's see what you do on your second question.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48In the garden,
0:24:48 > 0:24:51Heavenly Blue is a popular cultivar
0:24:51 > 0:24:52of which climbing plant?
0:24:56 > 0:24:58- They're all climbing plants, aren't they?- Yeah.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59Doesn't help very much.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01Heavenly Blue...
0:25:01 > 0:25:03- Any idea?- No idea at all.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Heavenly Blue...
0:25:05 > 0:25:09It doesn't have to mean... It obviously implies that it's blue.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16- Have you got any inclinations? - Very few.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18I'd guess at wisteria, but I've no particular...
0:25:18 > 0:25:21ALL TALK AT ONCE
0:25:21 > 0:25:23We don't know.
0:25:23 > 0:25:24If there's any kind of inkle...
0:25:24 > 0:25:26It's not an inkle, just....
0:25:26 > 0:25:29We'll go for wisteria, then?
0:25:29 > 0:25:33Our horticulturist is sitting behind us, who probably knows the answer,
0:25:33 > 0:25:36but we don't, so we're going to have a pot at wisteria.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39Wisteria is your answer. I'm sure Judith knows.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41Well, I think it's Morning Glory.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43- Yes, you're right.- YES!
0:25:46 > 0:25:51You're missing your...Daphnes and your Judiths there, aren't you?
0:25:51 > 0:25:54They'd be straight there.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57Des and Jo, you need to get this question correct.
0:25:57 > 0:26:03In which decade did the first International Silent Games,
0:26:03 > 0:26:07now referred to as the Deaflympics, take place?
0:26:11 > 0:26:15Deaflympics is D-E-A-F, then "lympics".
0:26:15 > 0:26:17THEY CONFER
0:26:17 > 0:26:19I'll let you take the lead.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21I don't remember...
0:26:21 > 0:26:23One of the World Wars, I think...
0:26:23 > 0:26:27- After or before?- I think it was during.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30It's either the 1920s, after the First World War,
0:26:30 > 0:26:321950s, after the Second World War.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34I think 1980s is too far.
0:26:34 > 0:26:38Oh, what was it again? I saw this programme.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40- I don't know.- Have you got any feeling at all?
0:26:40 > 0:26:41Um...
0:26:41 > 0:26:43'50s.
0:26:43 > 0:26:44I was going to say '50s,
0:26:44 > 0:26:46- but I have no idea.- Me neither.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49- Go '50s?- Go '50s.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53- If it's wrong...- We'll go for 1950s.
0:26:53 > 0:26:54OK.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56It was the 1920s.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57Oh!
0:26:57 > 0:27:00So, Eggheads, you've got one wrong as well,
0:27:00 > 0:27:04but if you get this one right, you have won the contest.
0:27:04 > 0:27:05Here is your question.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Which newspaper was founded in 1835
0:27:08 > 0:27:10by James Gordon Bennett Senior?
0:27:16 > 0:27:17It should be the New York Herald.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20He was a New York...
0:27:20 > 0:27:21newspaper publisher.
0:27:21 > 0:27:25He sponsored several novelty events.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28I think I associate his name with the New York Herald.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30I THINK I do.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Are we happy with that?
0:27:32 > 0:27:35- Yes.- I've not got any...
0:27:35 > 0:27:39We're not 100% sure, but both Kevin and I had
0:27:39 > 0:27:42New York Herald come to mind immediately.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46We think it's the Gordon Bennett who sponsored various novelty events
0:27:46 > 0:27:48throughout the 19th century,
0:27:48 > 0:27:51so we're going to go for the New York Herald.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53The right answer is New York Herald.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56Eggheads, congratulations. You have won.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Well, you're definitely the liveliest team we've had for some time,
0:28:05 > 0:28:07so we've really enjoyed seeing you guys.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10Look at them in the background there!
0:28:10 > 0:28:12Bit of pain there,
0:28:12 > 0:28:15but thank you for playing with such gusto.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17Commiserations to The Safety Fire.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19- All the best with your music. - Thanks.
0:28:19 > 0:28:23The Eggheads have done what comes naturally and their winning streak continues.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25It does mean you won't be going home with the £26,000,
0:28:25 > 0:28:27so the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:31 > 0:28:34Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
