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 > 0:00:20The 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 > 0:00:33They are the Eggheads!
0:00:33 > 0:00:36And taking on our awesome quiz champions today
0:00:36 > 0:00:38are Quakers Reunited.
0:00:38 > 0:00:39This team of friends
0:00:39 > 0:00:41all have a connection with Darlington,
0:00:41 > 0:00:44a town famous for the influence of Quakers families
0:00:44 > 0:00:47during the Victorian era. Let's meet them.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50Hi, I'm Chris, I'm 51, and I'm a company director.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Hi, I'm Adam, I'm 42 and I'm a civil servant.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm Keith, I'm 50, and I'm a civil servant.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Dan, I'm 47 and I'm a company director.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Hi, I'm Kevin, I'm 51 and I'm a PE Teacher.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04So, Chris and team, welcome. Good to see you.
0:01:04 > 0:01:05- Hi.- Hi.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09Tell us about where you all come from in Darlington and what brought you together.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13We've more or less...most of us have known each other since schooldays.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17We've moved to different parts of the country, but every year we get back together,
0:01:17 > 0:01:19hence the Reunited.
0:01:19 > 0:01:24- And the Quakers thing is very big historically in Darlington, is it? - Yeah.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28They basically led the town, certainly in Victorian times.
0:01:28 > 0:01:33All the key men in the town were Quakers and the football.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36- I was going to say the football club has the nickname... - It is, it's the Quakers.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Some of these football club nicknames are actually really properly rooted
0:01:39 > 0:01:41- in something historical, aren't they?- Mmm.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Good luck. I hope you make them quake! That's the main thing.
0:01:45 > 0:01:49Every day there is £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:53 > 0:01:58So, Quakers Reunited, the Eggheads have won the last 33 games!
0:01:58 > 0:02:01I've never seen a jackpot this big in my time on the show,
0:02:01 > 0:02:05it's £34,000, that says you can't beat them today.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Geography.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10You can tell us who wants this.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13- Oh, Chris. - Chris is going to go for it.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17- It looks like it's me.- OK, Chris, the skipper of the Quakers, against which Egghead?
0:02:17 > 0:02:21- I don't know... - Judith, go with Judith.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25- No.- Dave.- Yeah, go with Dave.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Tremendous Knowledge Dave, please.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31OK, Chris from Quakers Reunited against Tremendous Knowledge Dave from the Eggheads on Geography.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35And just to ensure there is no conferring, would you please take your positions in the Question Room?
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Chris, you've started a personal challenge to scale some peaks.
0:02:40 > 0:02:47Yes, we started with all the highest peaks in the British Isles and it's spread to Western Europe now.
0:02:47 > 0:02:53- So how many ones in the UK did you do first?- We did the four in the UK, Great Britain...
0:02:53 > 0:02:55England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59You better say...the quizzers will probably know them, but just tell us which ones they are.
0:02:59 > 0:03:05Snowdon, Ben Nevis, Carrauntoohil and Scaffell.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09- And you've been up them and you're going wider now?- Yes. We've done Germany, Zugspitze,
0:03:09 > 0:03:15and we're working towards some bigger ones perhaps later this year or early next year.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18OK, so Tremendous Knowledge Dave against Chris on Geography.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Chris, you can choose the first or second set of questions.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Here is your first question.
0:03:26 > 0:03:31The Bois de Vincennes is a park just to the east of which European city?
0:03:33 > 0:03:38The title suggests it wouldn't be Rome. It sounds French to me.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42I think I'll go for Paris.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Paris is correct. Well done.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Here we go with Tremendous Knowledge Dave
0:03:48 > 0:03:49on Geography.
0:03:49 > 0:03:53What is the name of the body of water, an inlet of the Atlantic,
0:03:53 > 0:03:57which lies between the states of Connecticut and New York?
0:04:02 > 0:04:03Never heard of it!
0:04:04 > 0:04:07I struggle with American geography.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13I'm going to go Long Island Flats, but I don't think it's right.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- Eggheads? Do you know?- Sound.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19- Sound is actually the answer. Not very easy to guess.- No.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23Long Island Sound. OK, Chris, you're in the lead. How easy was that?
0:04:23 > 0:04:30What word follows Market and West in the names of places along the River Welland in Lincolnshire?
0:04:33 > 0:04:35I'm not sure.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38I've heard of Deeping...
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Market Deeping, so I think I'll go with Market Deeping.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44It is indeed Market Deeping, well done.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Dave, your question.
0:04:46 > 0:04:51The country of Luxembourg is approximately how many square miles in area?
0:04:53 > 0:04:54Small duchy...
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Is it 1,000 or 100?
0:04:58 > 0:05:00I'll go with 1,000 square miles.
0:05:00 > 0:05:031,000 is the right answer.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06So, he's got a point.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09But even so, Chris, if you get this one right, you will have knocked Dave out.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13The Atalante basin is a briny region of which sea?
0:05:17 > 0:05:19Right...
0:05:20 > 0:05:22I don't really know.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27I've not heard of any salty basins in the Mediterranean
0:05:27 > 0:05:30or for that matter any of those...
0:05:30 > 0:05:33but I'm just drawn towards the Caribbean for some reason,
0:05:33 > 0:05:34so I'm going to go Caribbean.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36No, no, no.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Mediterranean is the answer.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43So you may have let Dave back in. Dave, your question.
0:05:43 > 0:05:50The Wapusk National Park in Canada takes its name from the Cree word for
0:05:50 > 0:05:55and is one of the largest protection areas for which creature?
0:05:58 > 0:06:01So the national park is spelled W-A-P-U-S-K.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05I haven't got a clue.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08I'm going to go down the middle, harp seal.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Harp seal is incorrect. It's polar bear. So, Chris, well done.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13You've taken that first round.
0:06:13 > 0:06:18Edging just a tiny bit closer to this jackpot of £34,000!
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Please, both of you, come back and rejoin your teams.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25So, Chris, well done! The Earthquakers, really!
0:06:25 > 0:06:29Let's see if you can get that jackpot. It's getting a little bit closer.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33The Eggheads of course have got it in them to fight back, we know that!
0:06:33 > 0:06:37As it stands Quakers Reunited have not lost a brain, the Eggheads have.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Let's go to the next subject which is Music.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42So who would like this? Music.
0:06:42 > 0:06:47- What do we think, guys? - It's got to be Adam. - It's got to be me, hasn't it?
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- I think it's me, Jeremy. - Adam on Music. Which Egghead? Obviously, can't be Dave.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- Oh...- Where are we going with this one?- What about Pat?
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- You think Pat? Pat?- Pat.- Go on, Pat.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02Adam from Quakers Reunited versus Pat from the Eggheads.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05To ensure there is no conferring, would you please take your positions in the Question Room?
0:07:06 > 0:07:11So did I detect you were just a slightly reluctant volunteer on Music, Adam?
0:07:11 > 0:07:14No, absolutely not. I'm well up for this...not!
0:07:14 > 0:07:18OK. Well, you can choose the first or second set of questions.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Given it's not my chosen subject, I think I shall go first.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27I suppose I should ask what your chosen subject would have been?
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Film & Television. Love the settee.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31OK. Well, obviously that's going to come up next. It must do.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34So here's your question. Good luck.
0:07:34 > 0:07:40"Earth stood hard as iron" is a line in the first verse of which Christmas carol?
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Sounds a bit dreary for Ding Dong Merrily On High,
0:07:48 > 0:07:50so I think I'll rule that out first.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Probably not The Holly And The Ivy,
0:07:52 > 0:07:54so I think that would lead me to go down the middle,
0:07:54 > 0:07:56In The Bleak Mid-Winter.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59And you got it right. In The Bleak Mid-Winter is the right answer.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Your question, Pat.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05In which year was Karma Chameleon a UK number one single for Culture Club?
0:08:09 > 0:08:11It's quite a long time ago.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Don't think it's the '70s.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18I think the '90s are too recent.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I think I'll have to go for 1983.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22It's the right year. '83.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24Adam, your question.
0:08:24 > 0:08:29On the cover of their album The Circus the members of Take That are shown doing what?
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Oh, I know nothing about Take That.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39I can imagine it's probably not lion taming.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40I don't think it's juggling.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44Something makes me want to go by instinct tightrope walking.
0:08:44 > 0:08:45So I'm going to choose that.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Very good, you're right! Tightrope walking.
0:08:50 > 0:08:51Good quizzer here!
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Goes unerringly to the right answer. Pat, your question.
0:08:54 > 0:09:00What nationality is the girl in Algiers in the title of Rossini's opera?
0:09:03 > 0:09:07I think she's an Italian Girl In Algiers,
0:09:07 > 0:09:09so she's Italian.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11You could have guessed French because of the connection there,
0:09:11 > 0:09:14but not so. Italian is the right answer.
0:09:14 > 0:09:162 out of 2 for you both.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19We crack on. Adam, your third question.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Put him under pressure if you get this one right.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Which musician whose original surname was Gillis
0:09:24 > 0:09:30adopted his wife's surname on their marriage in 1996?
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Crikey!
0:09:36 > 0:09:40Something tells me to shy away from Michael Bolton, so I'll do that.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43That leaves me with Ryan Adams and Jack White.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Ryan Adams is relatively new, I think.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49And because it's a guess I'm going to go down the middle
0:09:49 > 0:09:50with Jack White.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- Is he right, Eggheads?- Yeah. - Yeah, you're right. Again!
0:09:56 > 0:09:59Considering it's not your home territory, you're doing brilliantly.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Playing with assurance. Pat, if you get this wrong,
0:10:02 > 0:10:05you're out of the contest and you'll be the second Egghead to go.
0:10:05 > 0:10:112LO Calling, a piece celebrating 90 years of BBC radio broadcasting
0:10:11 > 0:10:12was written by which musician?
0:10:18 > 0:10:23I think I have a memory of Damon Albarn putting together
0:10:23 > 0:10:27not exactly a piece of music, but a collection of sounds...
0:10:27 > 0:10:29..to do with the history of the BBC.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32So I think I'll have to go for Damon Albarn.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34You said Damon Albarn.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37It is actually the man from Blur. You're quite right, Damon Albarn.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39You got it. Well, I'm sorry, Adam,
0:10:39 > 0:10:43he couldn't be shaken off very easily, but he is a brilliant player, our Pat.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47So we go to Sudden Death and it becomes a bit more difficult,
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- because I don't give you alternative answers. Are you ready?- No!
0:10:52 > 0:10:54No choice, I'm afraid.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58Which song, a UK hit in 2012, opens with the words,
0:10:58 > 0:11:01"This is the end, hold your breath and count to ten"?
0:11:03 > 0:11:06"This is the end..." I'm really, really struggling.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09Trying to think...
0:11:09 > 0:11:12Could be something by... I don't know.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16Sorry, I can't come up with an answer, I really can't.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20- You want to pass?- Pass, please. - Pat, you answer, do you know?
0:11:20 > 0:11:23- No, I don't know.- It's very difficult to go from lyrics.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27- I think it's Skyfall.- Yeah, it is. Skyfall by Adele!
0:11:27 > 0:11:30- So you will have heard it many, many times.- Yes, absolutely.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Of course you hear it, but you don't necessarily clock the lyrics.
0:11:32 > 0:11:33So that means, Pat,
0:11:33 > 0:11:35if you get this one right, you're in the final round.
0:11:35 > 0:11:42The Welsh classical musician Claire Jones, who played at the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge,
0:11:42 > 0:11:44is most associated with which instrument?
0:11:44 > 0:11:49I think she's a harpist. So it's the harp.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52If you've got this right, you're in the final, Pat. Do you think he's got it right?
0:11:52 > 0:11:56- Yeah, I think he has.- His certainty was, I must say, disappointing from your point of view.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Pat, you're right. It is the harp. You're in the final.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Adam, sorry, you played brilliantly there, but you've been knocked out.
0:12:01 > 0:12:02No worries. Thank you.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Please, both of you, rejoin your team-mates and we'll play on.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11So, as it stands, Quakers Reunited have now lost a brain from the final.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13The Eggheads have also lost a brain.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16And we'll see what happens next with History.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Who would like History?
0:12:18 > 0:12:19Tricky!
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- Was it your second?- History...
0:12:22 > 0:12:25It's you or Dan. It's you or Dan.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28We spoke about this last night. Were you going to take it?
0:12:28 > 0:12:32- OK.- Yeah, let's go.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36Sometimes the discussion here is almost as entertaining as the game itself.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Not for us, it's not!
0:12:38 > 0:12:42- So is that Dan we ended up with? - I think we ended up with Dan. - I think it's probably Dan, yeah.
0:12:42 > 0:12:46Dan on History and against which Egghead? Judith, Kevin or Daphne?
0:12:46 > 0:12:48- Not Daphne.- What a choice.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52- Try Kevin.- Go on!
0:12:52 > 0:12:55- You really are falling on your sword.- Here's your sword!
0:12:55 > 0:12:58I can't take on Kevin, then, can I? Kevin v Kevin!
0:12:58 > 0:13:02- Why don't you go Daphne, then? - Daphne, then.- Go for it.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03I'll take on Daphne.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07OK, so Dan from Quakers Reunited against Daphne on History!
0:13:07 > 0:13:09Let's see how you both do. Please go to the Question Room now.
0:13:10 > 0:13:14Good luck in this round. Dan, would you like to go first or second?
0:13:14 > 0:13:15I think I'll go second, Jeremy.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21OK, Daphne, here is your first History question.
0:13:21 > 0:13:26The New Forest in Southern England was created as a hunting ground for which monarch?
0:13:32 > 0:13:35I can just imagine Victoria charging along!
0:13:35 > 0:13:37It's William I.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39I was indeed William I. Correct.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41OK, Dan, over to you.
0:13:41 > 0:13:46The Romanov dynasty of Russia was overthrown during which war?
0:13:50 > 0:13:55Well, the War of the Roses was different factions in this country,
0:13:55 > 0:13:57so it certainly wasn't that.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00And I know a little bit about the First World War
0:14:00 > 0:14:05in terms of when the overthrow of the old Tsarist empire was.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08I'm going to go First World War, Jeremy.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10- Completely right. World War I. Well done.- Thank you.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13OK, Daphne, your question.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17In the 19th century, Decimus Burton was a leading name in which field?
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Well, actually, I've never heard of him.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Oh, dear!
0:14:24 > 0:14:27I can't see that it's music...
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Reform...
0:14:34 > 0:14:35Prison reform.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Well, your guessing is amazing...
0:14:38 > 0:14:41- Until now?- But not on this occasion!
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- Architecture?- It's a very rare moment... Yes, it is architecture.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46..for you to go the wrong way, Daphne.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50Architecture in the answer. She's let you in here, Dan.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53- Maybe going second was a good idea. - Perhaps.- Here's your question.
0:14:53 > 0:14:59In the Spanish colonies of the Americas and West Indies, what was a pistareen?
0:15:02 > 0:15:06Pistareen is spelled P-I-S-T-A-R-E-E-N.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10Well, I don't know the answer, but I'm trying to think about the word,
0:15:10 > 0:15:15and the only connection I can make is with the word piste,
0:15:15 > 0:15:19obviously, from skiing, which I know means a slope,
0:15:19 > 0:15:23so you wouldn't need a pirate or a coin to get you up a slope,
0:15:23 > 0:15:25so I'm going to go with draught horse, Jeremy.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29Yeah, I could see the argument. It's not the right answer, though.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31The correct answer is coin.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33So it's 1 each. Daphne, your question.
0:15:33 > 0:15:40Which 6th-century monk is credited with inventing the Anno Domini era, used in the modern calendar?
0:15:45 > 0:15:50Once again, absolutely no idea!
0:15:52 > 0:15:57Why should you call somebody weak or small, even?
0:15:57 > 0:15:59All right, John the Silent.
0:16:00 > 0:16:05Daphne, your little internal sat nav is taking you all over the place!
0:16:05 > 0:16:08- It's not the right answer. It's Dennis the Small.- Is it?
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Dan, if you get this one right,
0:16:11 > 0:16:13- you are in the final round.- OK.
0:16:13 > 0:16:19New Earswick, a model village in North Yorkshire, was founded by which philanthropist?
0:16:24 > 0:16:27Well, I should know this, Jeremy, because I live in North Yorkshire.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29So I'm going to be a bit embarrassed if I get it wrong.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33I have heard of the village, New Earswick,
0:16:33 > 0:16:38but I'm aware that all of those three Victorian philanthropists
0:16:38 > 0:16:41did establish villages.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44I think the thing I'm going to go with is that I know
0:16:44 > 0:16:47the Rowntree Foundation is based in York,
0:16:47 > 0:16:50there's a very strong connection between Rowntree and York,
0:16:50 > 0:16:53so I think I'm going to go with Joseph Rowntree, Jeremy.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58Good logic, Dan, you got it right. Joseph Rowntree it is. New Earswick.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01So, you are in the final round as well.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04We've got a great contest going on here. Daphne, it doesn't happen very often
0:17:04 > 0:17:06- but you've been knocked out. Bye-bye!- Bye-bye.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08Well, come back to us and we will play on.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12As it stands Quakers Reunited have lost one brain.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14They have now knocked out two Eggheads, though.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17So we have a contest on!
0:17:17 > 0:17:21The next subject is Film & Television! Adam, I know this was yours.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23So who's going to go for this, then?
0:17:23 > 0:17:27Shall I do it? It'll have to be me, yeah.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31- It's my third-choice subject. - It can be Judith or Kevin.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Didn't you have an ambition to face Kevin?
0:17:33 > 0:17:37- Well, yes, Kevin v Kevin! - Your choice, is that what you want? - Yes, please.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40OK, so the two Kevins, do go to the Question Room.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44So, Kevin, you wanted to play Kevin.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48Yes, I'm regretting it slightly now, but it seemed a good idea at the time.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50No, it's a great idea. Is that because you watch the show?
0:17:50 > 0:17:54Yes, I do watch the show. It was me that started the whole thing and got them all interested.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56- Oh, well, we really appreciate that. - Thank you.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00So you're doing Film & Television versus the other Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02And, Kevin, do you want to go first or second?
0:18:02 > 0:18:03I'll go second, please, thank you.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Here is your question, Kevin from the Eggheads.
0:18:08 > 0:18:14Stuart Miles, Tim Vincent and Barney Harwood have all been regular presenters of which TV programme?
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Well, before the choices came up,
0:18:19 > 0:18:22I thought I associated the name Tim Vincent with Blue Peter.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26I don't recollect any of them in relation to Countdown
0:18:26 > 0:18:28or The One Show, so we'll go with Blue Peter.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Blue Peter is correct.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Over to you, Kevin
0:18:33 > 0:18:35from Quakers Reunited.
0:18:35 > 0:18:41India Fisher found fame providing the voiceover on which television programme?
0:18:45 > 0:18:48Er...India Fisher? Not heard the name.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Fairly certain it's not Big Brother.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Doesn't sound very Geordie.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54I'll have to say Masterchef, though I'm not very confident.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58- You're right, you got it. Masterchef is right.- Thank you.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00So Masterchef is the answer. Well done.
0:19:00 > 0:19:07Other Kevin now. Which 1988 film features a fortune-telling machine called Zoltar Speaks?
0:19:10 > 0:19:14- I assume that's, not that it's going to help, Z-O-L-T-A-R?- Correct.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18It doesn't ring any bells at all.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21A fortune-telling machine called Zoltar Speaks?
0:19:21 > 0:19:26The only sort of thing that I can latch on to, I've no idea, really,
0:19:26 > 0:19:29is that there is the time-travel element in...
0:19:29 > 0:19:32or sort of time-travel element, body-swapping, in Big.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36And this may be something that triggered it.
0:19:36 > 0:19:37I'm going for Big.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Typical! You got it right.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44I thought you were in there, Kevin, other Kevin. Here is your question.
0:19:44 > 0:19:53Which 1973 science-fiction film set in 2022 stars Charlton Heston as Thorn, a New York detective?
0:19:58 > 0:20:01I think It Came From Outer Space is a bit early.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05Soylent Green, heard of it, not seen it.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08I'm drawn towards The Omega Man. The Omega Man.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10I've certainly heard of The Omega Man,
0:20:10 > 0:20:12but it's not the right answer, Kevin. It's Soylent Green.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15The Omega Man, is that a Charlton Heston film?
0:20:15 > 0:20:17- I think Charlton Heston's in that, yeah.- Right.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21It's unlucky, because they were both around the same sort of time as well.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Kevin, your question. Kevin from the Eggheads, you get this right,
0:20:24 > 0:20:25you're in the final round.
0:20:25 > 0:20:30Who plays the title role in the 1994 film Guarding Tess?
0:20:33 > 0:20:36I don't think it's one I've seen.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39I hope I'm thinking of the right film.
0:20:39 > 0:20:45I think the Tess in question is something like the First Lady...
0:20:45 > 0:20:47who gets stuck in some sort of situation...
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Now, which of those was it?
0:20:49 > 0:20:53Cos they've all played those sort of roles later in their careers...
0:20:53 > 0:20:57My inkling is that it's Shirley MacLaine.
0:20:57 > 0:20:58So Shirley MacLaine.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Shirley MacLaine...
0:21:00 > 0:21:01is correct.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05Kevin, you got 3 out of 3 as you are wont to do!
0:21:05 > 0:21:06Well, there we are,
0:21:06 > 0:21:09Kevin from the challengers. You've been knocked out, I'm afraid.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12But if you come back to us we will play the final round.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18So this is what we've been playing towards. It's time for the final round,
0:21:18 > 0:21:20which as always is General Knowledge,
0:21:20 > 0:21:23but I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:21:23 > 0:21:25won't be allowed to take part in this round.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28So, that is Adam and Kevin from Quakers Reunited,
0:21:28 > 0:21:31but it's also Dave and Daphne from the Eggheads.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33Would you please now leave the studio?
0:21:34 > 0:21:41Chris, Keith and Dan, you are playing to win Quakers Reunited £34,000.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44Pat, Judith and Kevin, you are playing for something that money can't buy,
0:21:44 > 0:21:46the Eggheads' reputation.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51This time, the questions are all General Knowledge,
0:21:51 > 0:21:53and you are allowed to confer.
0:21:53 > 0:21:59So, Quakers Reunited, the question is, are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three over here?
0:21:59 > 0:22:03So, Chris, Keith and Dan, would you like to go first or second?
0:22:03 > 0:22:04We'll go first, Jeremy.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08All the best to you, here we go.
0:22:08 > 0:22:13The Gambinos and the Genoveses are two of the most famous crime families
0:22:13 > 0:22:15operating out of which city?
0:22:18 > 0:22:24- Wow!- Who was the head of the Mafia? - I would say New York.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26There's always the danger of it being too obvious
0:22:26 > 0:22:28- if it's the first question. - I think it's right, though.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31- I've never heard of crime families in Seattle.- No.- Or Nashville.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35- New York.- It's got to be New York. - We agreed?- Yeah.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38- New York, Jeremy. - New York is the right answer.
0:22:38 > 0:22:39Well done.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42OK, Eggheads, your question.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45What type of garment is an Ulster?
0:22:48 > 0:22:50- Overcoat.- It's an overcoat, isn't it?- Pat?
0:22:50 > 0:22:53- Is it an overcoat?- Yeah, I think so.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56We think that that's an overcoat.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59The right answer is overcoat. So 1 point each.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03Second question to you. £34,000 we're playing for here.
0:23:03 > 0:23:09Quakers Reunited, who appeared alongside Desperate Dan in the last printed edition of the Dandy
0:23:09 > 0:23:11in 2012?
0:23:14 > 0:23:15Wow!
0:23:15 > 0:23:18- Any views?- I've got no view.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20We're going to have to work this out.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22We're going to have to work through this one.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26- Alongside Desperate Dan...? - In 2012 as well.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29- I can't imagine Cliff Richard. - I can't see Cliff Richard.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31It's a gut feeling, but I can't see it.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34What would be the connection? Desperate Dan's not Scottish, is he?
0:23:34 > 0:23:37- The connection with Rod Stewart. - He's not Scottish, I don't think so.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40No, the Dandy might be Scottish.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Yes, the company that print it is.
0:23:42 > 0:23:47I remember there was a big TV thing about it closing down.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48Let's eliminate Cliff Richard,
0:23:48 > 0:23:50so it's between Paul McCartney and Rod Stewart.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54Why would Paul McCartney have a connection with Desperate Dan?
0:23:54 > 0:23:57- Well, he's got Mull Of Kintyre... - It's a bit tenuous.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59It is a tenuous connection, but he's got connections.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01I'm feeling Rod Stewart...
0:24:01 > 0:24:04Cos it's closing down, they'd want to celebrate it locally, no?
0:24:04 > 0:24:06They printed it there for 90 years.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09The only thing is his father was Scottish,
0:24:09 > 0:24:11but he isn't actually Scottish. He was born in London, really.
0:24:11 > 0:24:16- That's true.- But I imagine the character looks more in keeping...
0:24:16 > 0:24:19- Desperate Dan...- Rod Stewart with all his tartan...
0:24:19 > 0:24:22You're right, that's a good point. You wouldn't see Paul McCartney...
0:24:22 > 0:24:23Larger than life.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25You've got to translate it to a comic strip, haven't you?
0:24:25 > 0:24:28It's a vague one, but I feel more comfortable with Rod Stewart.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32- I'm feeling that way too. What do you think?- 34 grand!
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Shall we go with Rod Stewart? Yeah?
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- I think so.- OK. We're going to go for Rod Stewart, Jeremy.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Your answer is Rod Stewart.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45I'm a big Dandy fan, but I missed this though.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48- Eggheads, do you know? - Paul McCartney.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51Sorry, guys, Paul McCartney is the answer.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Eggheads, your question to take the lead.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56What is the name of the architectural style,
0:24:56 > 0:24:59particularly associated with Scottish buildings,
0:24:59 > 0:25:02which is based on the features of medieval castles?
0:25:05 > 0:25:08- Baronial.- Scottish baronial. - Scottish baronial.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10- Abbotsford and all that.- Yeah.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12It's not princely or ducal.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15That's baronial, Scottish baronial.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Baronial is the right answer.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20You need to get this one right to stay in the contest, guys.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22£34,000 is the jackpot. Here we go.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26Which plant is named after the American Minister to Mexico
0:25:26 > 0:25:29who introduced it into the United States?
0:25:33 > 0:25:35American minister...?
0:25:37 > 0:25:40- The Mexican... - The Minister to Mexico...?
0:25:40 > 0:25:44Well, I assume he's like an ambassador.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46- So he's not going to have a Mexican name.- No.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48There's a few different angles to this, aren't they?
0:25:48 > 0:25:49What kind of plants would have been there
0:25:49 > 0:25:51that he would have introduced into America?
0:25:51 > 0:25:54And...connections between the names?
0:25:56 > 0:25:59I don't know why, but I kind of felt poinsettia straightaway.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01- I don't know why.- I did as well.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Saintpaulia sounds more like something to do with Saint Paul,
0:26:03 > 0:26:05doesn't it, rather than...?
0:26:05 > 0:26:08- Saintpaulia? Dahlia? - Dahlia just doesn't work for me,
0:26:08 > 0:26:10- I don't know why, though. - I honestly don't really know.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13I honestly don't know either! We're trying to work it out!
0:26:13 > 0:26:15I haven't got a clue, I mean!
0:26:16 > 0:26:19- What do we do...? - Saintpaulia or poinsettia?
0:26:19 > 0:26:23Quick straw poll. We're going to have to take a vote on it.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26I'm going to go poinsettia.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29Yeah, our instinct is poinsettia, but we don't know why.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33None of us know any different, so we're all going for the same.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35Last throw of the dice, eh?
0:26:35 > 0:26:38We're going to go with poinsettia, Jeremy.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42The Minister's name was Joel Roberts Poinsett.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45- Oh!- You got it right! Well done!
0:26:45 > 0:26:49You worked your way around to it very effectively.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51Round good answer, well done.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53So because of the previous wrong answer,
0:26:53 > 0:26:57you've let them in slightly. If they get this one right, the contest is over.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00If they don't, we go to Sudden Death and then you can turn the tables on them.
0:27:00 > 0:27:05Fingers crossed here for you. Eggheads, which member of the Royal Family was given the title
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Baron Killyleagh when he got married?
0:27:11 > 0:27:17- How do you spell...? - One word, K-I-L-L-Y-L-E-A-G-H.
0:27:17 > 0:27:21K-I-L-L-Y-L-E-A-G-H. Is it Welsh?
0:27:21 > 0:27:24- No, it's Irish.- Oh, it's Irish?
0:27:24 > 0:27:27I think it's Andrew, but if you've got any better offer...
0:27:27 > 0:27:33- I've nothing.- No idea.- I think it's Andrew, but it's nothing like 100%.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36- And you don't know?- I don't know, I'm happy to go with Kevin.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38Kevin's the only one who's got any idea about this,
0:27:38 > 0:27:41and so we're going to go for Prince Andrew.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44You think Prince Andrew is the answer?
0:27:44 > 0:27:47If you've got it wrong, you're level and we go to Sudden Death.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49If you've got it right, the contest is over.
0:27:49 > 0:27:53- Do you think they're right? - They usually tend to be!- Yeah.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56Kevin's little inklings can be quite reliable.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58The answer is Prince Andrew.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01So we say congratulations, Eggheads, you have won.
0:28:07 > 0:28:12Baron Killyleagh, Rod Stewart, my goodness, we were into obscure territory there!
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Commiserations, Quakers Reunited. It's been great to see you play.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them, though,
0:28:17 > 0:28:20and your winning streak continues.
0:28:20 > 0:28:24I'm afraid that means that the challengers won't be going home with the £34,000.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27Which means the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29So, Eggheads, congratulations!
0:28:29 > 0:28:32Who will ever beat you? I don't think they're going to!
0:28:32 > 0:28:37- I think you will carry on winning for ever! - That's done it!- That's done it!
0:28:37 > 0:28:39Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:39 > 0:28:44have the brains to defeat the Eggheads. £35,000 says they don't.
0:28:44 > 0:28:46Until then, goodbye.
