These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
Together, they make up the Eggheads, | 0:00:09 | 0:00:11 | |
arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
The question is, can they be beaten? | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
They are the Eggheads. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
And taking on the might of the Eggheads today are... | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
This team of friends are all avid rugby league fans | 0:00:38 | 0:00:41 | |
and support teams of Halifax and the Bradford Bulls. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:45 | |
How you get from The Bulls to Fat Dogs is anyone's guess, | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
but I'm sure they'll enlighten us. Let's meet them. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
I'm Scott. I'm 25 and I'm a test analyst. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
I'm Lisa. I'm 43 and I'm a teacher. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
I'm Danny. I'm 30 and I'm a retail manager. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
I'm Lindsey. I'm 45 and I'm a school business manager. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
I'm Julie. I'm 27 and I'm a trainee teacher. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
-Scott and team, welcome. -Thank you. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
So the Bradford Bulls, and at the end we've got Julie who's Halifax. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:13 | |
-Yes. -That's rugby league. -Yes, so basically we're all fans of rugby league. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:18 | |
And we met through Twitter, supporting the team. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:22 | |
We come from different parts of the country so we came together through that. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:26 | |
And we've been friends ever since. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:27 | |
For those who don't use it, you're on your phones and you put some kind of code in and all meet up? | 0:01:27 | 0:01:33 | |
We put a hache tag and Bradford Bulls | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
and anybody that's using the same codes can see each other. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
So we decided to meet up at a couple of games and there we go. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
Where does the name Fat Dogs come from? That's one thing I don't understand! | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
Basically, last year, our team was in a bit of bother with finances | 0:01:44 | 0:01:49 | |
and a group of us decided to get together and bring back the good times | 0:01:49 | 0:01:54 | |
by having a sing-song on the terraces to get the atmosphere back a bit. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:58 | |
Some of us were going down to London to an away game | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
and there were three very large gentlemen in the back of the car. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:05 | |
It slowed it down, so it came from there. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
-So the three gentlemen were the Fat Dogs? -They're our Founding Fathers! | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
They're three of our friends, Rick, Gareth and John, | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
and Martin decided to call them the Fat Dogs. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
So although you play under the name of the Fat Dogs, they may be watching! | 0:02:16 | 0:02:21 | |
-The real Fat Dogs. -Indeed. -Yes. -I hope so! | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
OK. Well, here we go with the contest. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
Every day there is £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:35 | |
So, Fat Dogs, the Eggheads have won the last 36 games | 0:02:35 | 0:02:40 | |
so that's pretty good if you're looking at the jackpot! | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
Wow! | 0:02:45 | 0:02:46 | |
Might get the Bradford Bulls back on track with that! | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
The first head-to-head is on Music. Who'd like this? | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
-Music. Not me. -Um... | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
-It's your round. You said that... -OK. I'm going to go for Music, then. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:58 | |
And I would like to take on... I'll take on Dave. "Tremendous Knowledge" Dave! | 0:02:58 | 0:03:05 | |
So the skipper Scott from the Fat Dogs against Tremendous Knowledge Dave from the Eggheads on Music. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:10 | |
To ensure no conferring, please take your positions in the question room. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:15 | |
Scott, you went for Music pretty swiftly. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
Yeah. We decided beforehand what our categories would be. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:23 | |
Music is not particularly one of my strengths | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
but nobody else in the team's either. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:27 | |
The fact I have about you is that you're absolutely terrified of chickens. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:31 | |
-Yeah. -I didn't know if that's related to music in some way! | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
Not quite! Basically, I went to a beer garden when I was a child, about three or four. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:40 | |
I was playing with the chickens, time to leave. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
I started running away, fell over, and all the chickens jumped on me | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
and started pecking me to death! | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
So that's left me emotionally wounded! | 0:03:48 | 0:03:52 | |
I'm scared of chickens after that story! | 0:03:52 | 0:03:53 | |
That ever happened to you, Dave? | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
No, not at all. I've had some scary chicken dishes, | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
in certain restaurants that I won't name! | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
-Yes, it's safer that way. -Absolutely. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
OK, Music. Scott. Would you like to go first or second? | 0:04:04 | 0:04:08 | |
First, please, Jeremy. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
Good luck. I hope you don't get attacked by a chicken during this round! | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
What was the title of Lisa Stansfield's 1989 number one single? | 0:04:16 | 0:04:21 | |
I think I know this one. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
My brother was born in this year. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
I remember as a kid singing it a lot when I was dancing around him. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:34 | |
I think that's All Around the World. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:35 | |
All Around the World is the right answer. Good memory. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
Dancing around your brother singing a song. A lovely memory to have. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
OK, Dave, your question. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
Which X Factor winner had the first new UK number one single of 2010? | 0:04:46 | 0:04:51 | |
First one of 2010? | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
I don't think it's Steve Brookstein. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:01 | |
That's too far away. Will Young too far away. It's Joe McElderry. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
Joe McElderry is the right answer. One each. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:07 | |
Scott, over to you. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:09 | |
According to the song Joy to the World, made famous by the US band Three Dog Night, | 0:05:09 | 0:05:14 | |
what type of creature was Jeremiah? | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
Not too sure. Not my field of expertise. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
Joy to the World. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
I will have a plump for Brown Bear. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
-Anyone on the team? -Bullfrog. -It was a bullfrog. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:32 | |
How do you know that? It's an old song. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
It's on a film. They sing it a lot on a Sandra Bullock film. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
She sings in it "Jeremiah was a bullfrog." | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
Help me with it. Do a little bit of it. Come on. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:43 | |
# Jeremiah was a bullfrog | 0:05:43 | 0:05:47 | |
# He was a good friend of mine. # | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
Got it. I want to say good play by the Fat Dogs, | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
but Scott, unfortunately, you got the answer wrong. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
Your team-mates knew the answer was bullfrog. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
Dave, your question to take the lead. | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
Which of these terms refers to a short, light piece of music | 0:05:59 | 0:06:03 | |
typically composed for solo piano. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:05 | |
I'll go villa... Villanella. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:14 | |
If I can pronounce it! | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
-Villanella. -Villanella is not right. Anyone in Eggheads know? | 0:06:16 | 0:06:19 | |
-ALL: Bagatelle. -Bagatelle. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:21 | |
You got it wrong. Bagatelle was the answer. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:23 | |
So one each after two. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:24 | |
Here's your third question, Scott. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
The letters AAM, an abbreviation of the name of an ensemble | 0:06:26 | 0:06:32 | |
founded by Christopher Hogwood in 1973, | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
stand for the Academy of what? | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
1973. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:44 | |
Um, OK. So not much of a clue. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
AAM. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:49 | |
I don't think it's Avant-garde music. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
I think, based on the time, I'm going to go for Acoustic Music. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:58 | |
It's the Academy of Ancient Music. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
Let's see if Dave can take the round with his third question. Dave, | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
which European composer served as director of the National Conservatory of Music in New York | 0:07:06 | 0:07:11 | |
during the 1890s. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
Not Liszt. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:20 | |
I'm going to go with Dvorak. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
Dvorak is the right answer, Dave. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
Well done. You've taken the round two points to one. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
Sorry, Scott, you've been knocked out | 0:07:29 | 0:07:31 | |
but it doesn't mean your team can't win. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
Come back to us and we'll play on. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
So, as it stands, the Fat Dogs have lost one brain, Scott, from the final round. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:41 | |
Don't worry. You can still power through. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
And there's a big jackpot here of 37,000. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
So keep the confidence up. The next subject is Science. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
-Who's it going to be? -That will be me. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:52 | |
I'm a science teacher! | 0:07:52 | 0:07:53 | |
You're the science teacher. OK. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
Julie against which Egghead? Can't be Dave. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
-Who do you think? -I'm thinking either Pat or Barry. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
-Pat or Barry. Pat? -Pat. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
-Yeah? -I'll follow my team and I'll take Pat. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:07 | |
OK. Julie from the Fat Dogs against Pat from the Eggheads. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:12 | |
To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
Julie, you are a science teacher? | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
I am, yes. I'm currently training. I'm on my final placement | 0:08:19 | 0:08:24 | |
and I should be a qualified science teacher in June. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
So I'm still training at the moment. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
But it's a lot of fun. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:30 | |
I'm really glad you say that. You've got a degree in Medical Biology, right? | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
I have, yes. While I was doing my degree at university | 0:08:34 | 0:08:38 | |
I was actually chair of the Bio-Science Society. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
That's good. I gather you got your degree from somebody with a Star Trek connection. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:45 | |
I did, yes. I was given my degree by Sir Patrick Stewart. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:49 | |
He's the Vice Chancellor of the University of Huddersfield where I studied. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:54 | |
Good luck in your career and good luck with the imminent issue of deposing Pat | 0:08:54 | 0:08:58 | |
in this round on Science. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:00 | |
Julie, do you want to go first or second? | 0:09:00 | 0:09:02 | |
I'll go first, please. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
Science ranges far and wide. I hope we get the right territory for you. Here's your first question. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:11 | |
What is commonly cited as normal human body temperature | 0:09:11 | 0:09:16 | |
in degrees Fahrenheit? | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
OK. The general rule of thumb that I was told | 0:09:22 | 0:09:26 | |
was you double your Centigrade and add 30. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
So doubling your Centigrade | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
would take you to around about 65, 68. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
Add 30, that would take you to 95, 98. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:39 | |
So I'll go with 98.6, please. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
Very logical and very correct. Well done. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
98.6 it is. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:47 | |
Pat, your question. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:49 | |
The eggs of the common starling are typically what colour? | 0:09:49 | 0:09:51 | |
I know quite a few of those birds tend to have pale blue eggs. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:59 | |
I'm not certain a starling does. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:01 | |
A black egg would be quite surprising. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:03 | |
And a red egg sounds a bit drastic! | 0:10:03 | 0:10:06 | |
I'll have to go with blue egg. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
Blue is the right colour and the right answer. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:11 | |
Julie, to what phylum of animals do sea anemones belong? | 0:10:13 | 0:10:18 | |
Wow. This is taking me back. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
It's been a long time since I did phylum. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
I'm almost 100% sure it's not Cnidaria. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:34 | |
And between Arthropoda and Brassica, | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
I think I'm going to go with Brassica. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:41 | |
Brassica. OK. Let's ask the Eggs here. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:43 | |
-Any Eggs who know? -No, it's Cnidaria. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
-Brassica is cabbage. -Brassica is cabbage, apparently. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:48 | |
-Cnidaria is the right one. -Oh, no! | 0:10:48 | 0:10:51 | |
So, Cnidaria is the answer. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
Pat, there's a chance to go ahead. Your question. | 0:10:53 | 0:10:56 | |
Due to its slow rotation coupled with its fast orbit speed, | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
which planet has a solar day that lasts twice as long as its year? | 0:10:59 | 0:11:05 | |
Fast orbit speed. The closer you go to the sun, the faster you'll go. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:14 | |
Because otherwise you'd be pulled into the solar mass itself. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:19 | |
So I'm going to go for Mercury. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
Mercury is correct. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
Take us through this. It's rotating slowly | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
so dawn to dusk is six months, is that right? | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
Is that what we mean here? | 0:11:31 | 0:11:33 | |
-Barry, you love this stuff. -Mercury rotates round the sun in about 88 days. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:38 | |
-OK. -So its day is obviously much longer than 88 days. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:42 | |
OK. I'll pretend I understand and move on! | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
Julie, your question. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:47 | |
Widely used across a number of different industries, | 0:11:47 | 0:11:50 | |
Sodium tetraborate decahydrate is better known by what name? | 0:11:50 | 0:11:54 | |
I'm using my process of elimination here. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:02 | |
The fact that it's got borate in it and it's got "dec", which means ten, | 0:12:02 | 0:12:08 | |
which is the Roman numeral X, | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
I would go with borax. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:12 | |
I'm pretty sure it's not lye. I've heard of that as something else. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:15 | |
And white spirit, I don't think anything with borate in it | 0:12:15 | 0:12:22 | |
would be that commonly found in shops. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:24 | |
So I'll go with borax. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:25 | |
Borax is right. Brilliantly done. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
Borax is correct, Julie. Well done. Two out of three. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:31 | |
Let's see if Pat knocks you out now. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:33 | |
If he gets this wrong, we go to sudden death. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
Which of these items of medical examination equipment | 0:12:35 | 0:12:39 | |
was invented by the German scientist Hermann von Helmholtz? | 0:12:39 | 0:12:44 | |
An endoscope is a camera on the end of a flexible device, | 0:12:48 | 0:12:54 | |
on a flexible lead. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
That's pretty high-tech, really. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
I think Von Helmholtz was active in the 19th century, around there, | 0:12:59 | 0:13:04 | |
so I think an endoscope might be a bit too complex. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:07 | |
An otoscope I think is just a gizmo | 0:13:07 | 0:13:11 | |
that you look into somebody's ear. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:13 | |
I've a notion it's opthalmoscope. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
Opthalmoscope is the right answer. Sorry, Julie, he's knocked you out, | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
by just getting one more over three. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:26 | |
So Pat will be in the final round and Julie has gone from the contest. | 0:13:26 | 0:13:30 | |
Please, both of you, rejoin your teams. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:33 | |
Julie, commiserations on that. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
If it's any consolation, it often happens to the person with a specialist knowledge. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:40 | |
-Yes. -Because the rounds are actually quite general. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
Yes. The questions didn't fall into my specialist area of science. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:48 | |
Yes. A little while ago, Judith, who wouldn't say that science is her strongest subject, | 0:13:48 | 0:13:54 | |
knocked out a rocket scientist! | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
That was one of our all-time great moments, actually! | 0:13:57 | 0:14:00 | |
As it stands, the Fat Dogs have lost two brains from the final round. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
The Eggheads have not lost a brain yet. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
Will the next round change that? | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
It's Geography. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:10 | |
Who would like this? | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
That would have been me. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:13 | |
-But I can't do it, can I? -I'm rubbish at Geography. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:16 | |
-I'll go. -Are you sure? | 0:14:16 | 0:14:19 | |
Yeah, I'll take Geography. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
Lisa against...Barry, Chris or Daphne. The three in the middle. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:25 | |
-What about Chris? -Yeah? | 0:14:25 | 0:14:27 | |
I wouldn't go with Daphne. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:29 | |
-Barry. -Barry. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:31 | |
OK. I'll take Barry, please. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:34 | |
It's Lisa from the Fat Dogs versus Barry from the Eggheads. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:37 | |
Please go to the question room. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:38 | |
-All right, Lisa. Good luck here. -Thank you. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:42 | |
We were just looking at some of the stats for the Eggheads. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:44 | |
-The biggest jackpot ever won was 75,000. -Wow! | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
-The second biggest jackpot ever won was 37,000, which is exactly where you are now. -Absolutely. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:55 | |
That jackpot was won by a team called - ready for this? - The Wise Owls. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:59 | |
-Wow. OK. -So now we're the Fat Dogs and we're on 37! | 0:14:59 | 0:15:02 | |
So, is there an omen there? I don't know. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:05 | |
Right. Geography. First or second set of questions, Lisa? | 0:15:05 | 0:15:09 | |
I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:10 | |
Good luck. Here we go. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
In winter, the western European countries that are on Central European Time | 0:15:15 | 0:15:20 | |
are how many hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time? | 0:15:20 | 0:15:24 | |
OK. Well, I'm pretty certain that when we adjust our clocks, | 0:15:26 | 0:15:32 | |
that the rest of Europe does that as well. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:36 | |
So I'm pretty sure it's one. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:39 | |
One is right. Well done. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:42 | |
It would be easy to slip up on that one. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:44 | |
OK. Barry, your question. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:45 | |
The towns of Ashford and Tenterden are in which English county? | 0:15:45 | 0:15:49 | |
Ashford and Tenterden. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:54 | |
Ashford's drawing me to Kent, | 0:15:54 | 0:15:56 | |
and Tenterden is drawing me to Oxfordshire | 0:15:56 | 0:15:58 | |
which isn't a great help. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:00 | |
It's Tenterden. T-E-N-T-E-R-D-E-N. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:03 | |
Doesn't really help much. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
Oh, dear. Ashford. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:08 | |
I really don't know. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:11 | |
Kent. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:14 | |
-Kent is the answer. You knew it was Kent, didn't you? -Yes. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
Barry, Barry, Barry. Where are you today? | 0:16:18 | 0:16:21 | |
Blimey, if you had that trouble at the first question, it could be interesting times! | 0:16:21 | 0:16:25 | |
This is your question, Lisa. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
Which of these English cities is situated on the River Lune? L-U-N-E. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:31 | |
OK. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:36 | |
It's not my specialist subject, UK rivers. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:40 | |
I travel up and down the country a little bit in the car. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:47 | |
I think I would have come across the River Lune | 0:16:47 | 0:16:49 | |
around the Derby area, so I'm going to rule that out. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
For no particular reason, I'm going to say Plymouth. | 0:16:55 | 0:17:00 | |
I'm sensing your team-mates don't know. Is she right, Eggheads? | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
-No. -Lancaster. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:06 | |
Lancaster it is, Lisa. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:07 | |
Barry, your question. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:09 | |
What type of feature is the Weltzeituhr | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
in Berlin's Alexanderplatz? | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
Goodness me. Could you spell that, please? | 0:17:17 | 0:17:20 | |
W-E-L-T-Z-E-I-T-U-H-R. | 0:17:20 | 0:17:26 | |
Doesn't sound like a fountain? | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
Or a clock. I'm going to go for an ice rink. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
OK. I guess my German A level is coming back to me. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:36 | |
Welt-zeit-uhr. World-time-hour. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:39 | |
It's a clock. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:41 | |
-Of course! -I'm thinking that someone has taken the Eggheads' Barry | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
and replaced him with an imposter today! | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
-Oh, dear me! -That's good for you, Lisa. Well done. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:52 | |
You're now neck and neck. He's let you back in. Good stuff. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:55 | |
Try and get this one right. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:56 | |
Mount Damavand is one of the highest peaks in which country? | 0:17:56 | 0:18:00 | |
Mount Damavand. Mount and then D-A-M-A-V-A-N-D. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:08 | |
I think it's got a bit of a Scandinavian sound to it. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:13 | |
So for that reason, I'm going to say Finland. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:17 | |
I would agree with you, but you're wrong. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
Unfortunately it's Iran. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:20 | |
If Barry gets this right, he's in the final round. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
Barry, the Great Mosque of Kairouan, | 0:18:23 | 0:18:27 | |
one of the largest Islamic monuments in North Africa, | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
is situated in which country? | 0:18:30 | 0:18:33 | |
-Tunisia. -Straight in. OK. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
So Kent is a struggle, but Tunisia you're fine with! | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
It would appear so! | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
Absolutely right, Barry. You're in the final round. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:45 | |
Lisa, sorry, | 0:18:45 | 0:18:46 | |
he has knocked you out. The Eggheads are playing well. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
Well, I won't go that far! | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
They're playing with confidence at times. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |
You've been knocked out. Please return to your teams. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:56 | |
It's always entertaining, respectfully I point this out, | 0:18:58 | 0:19:01 | |
when you guys blow a little fuse. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:03 | |
Is that what happened there, Barry? | 0:19:03 | 0:19:04 | |
I think it was a big fuse I blew. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:07 | |
Reminds me of Judith when she was asked "What song begins with the line, | 0:19:07 | 0:19:11 | |
'Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today'?" | 0:19:11 | 0:19:14 | |
And she chose Barcelona! We were trying to work out how that would go together! | 0:19:14 | 0:19:20 | |
Anyway, as it stands, the Fat Dogs have lost three brains from the final round. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:24 | |
So the Eggheads are still winning here. They've not lost a brain. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:27 | |
Got to try and change that before the final. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:29 | |
Good luck. Film & Television is the subject. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:32 | |
Is that good? | 0:19:32 | 0:19:34 | |
-I think I'll take this one. -OK. Danny against which Egghead? | 0:19:34 | 0:19:37 | |
-Chris or Daphne? -I'd like to play Chris, please. -OK. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
So Danny from the Fat Dogs against Chris from the Eggheads. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:43 | |
Last chance to knock out an Egghead before the final. Good luck. Please go to the question room now. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:48 | |
This is definitely your subject, Danny? | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
All being well, Jeremy, yes. I've been building up for this for the last few weeks. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |
Hopefully, I won't let my team down too badly. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:57 | |
You would like to work in film, wouldn't you? | 0:19:57 | 0:20:00 | |
I studied Film and Media Studies at Central Lancashire University | 0:20:00 | 0:20:03 | |
back in 2001 through to 2004. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:06 | |
Ultimately, I fancy myself as a bit of a screenwriter. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:09 | |
I do write the odd screenplay in my spare time, but as yet, nothing major. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:14 | |
We had the strange fear of Scott, which was being attacked by chickens. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:18 | |
You've also got a strange fear? | 0:20:18 | 0:20:20 | |
I have almost a phobia of flat-handled metal cutlery. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:23 | |
When I'm holding it, it gives me the sensation of nails on a chalk board. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:28 | |
So I do have my own set of cutlery that I've been known to take out with me to use. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:34 | |
How interesting. This team has a series of phobias. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:37 | |
-Anything to do with supporting the Bradford Bulls? -No! | 0:20:37 | 0:20:40 | |
We all see ourselves as professional sportsmen, really, so we all have us own pre-match rituals! | 0:20:40 | 0:20:45 | |
Good luck, Danny. I'm glad we've got you on your subject, | 0:20:45 | 0:20:48 | |
although as Julie discovered, it's often even harder as a result. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:51 | |
-Would you like the first or second set? -I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:55 | |
Who plays the airline pilot Whip Whittaker in the film Flight, | 0:20:58 | 0:21:02 | |
released in the UK in February 2013? | 0:21:02 | 0:21:05 | |
I have seen the trailer for this film, Jeremy. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
So I'm extremely confident that the answer is Denzel Washington. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:15 | |
And you're 100% right. Well done. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:17 | |
I saw it and I really enjoyed it. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:21 | |
Thought it was good. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:23 | |
Chris, your question. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:24 | |
Jules Holland's Hootenanny is regularly broadcast on which day of the year? | 0:21:24 | 0:21:29 | |
That's regularly on New Year's Eve, Jeremy. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
New Year's Eve is the correct answer. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:37 | |
Danny, back to you. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:38 | |
In 2011, which channel picked up the TV series Big Brother | 0:21:38 | 0:21:42 | |
after Channel 4 decided to axe it? | 0:21:42 | 0:21:45 | |
Again, I'm quite a big fan of this show. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
I've watched it from its early days when it was on Channel 4. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:54 | |
The answer to this, Jeremy, is Channel 5. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
Yes, it is. Channel 5 is the answer. Well done. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:59 | |
Chris, what was the title | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
of the 1992 Batman film that featured Danny de Vito as The Penguin? | 0:22:01 | 0:22:07 | |
I know the film. I know Danny de Vito as The Penguin. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
But which one was it? Not Batman & Robin. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
That's the extremely camp one. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:18 | |
I think it was Batman Returns. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:22 | |
-Is he right, Danny? -Yeah, he's right. I'm a big Batman fan as well! | 0:22:22 | 0:22:26 | |
Yes, you have a big Marvel comics thing, don't you? | 0:22:26 | 0:22:29 | |
I've got a lot of time for both Marvel and DC comics. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
Batman is my favourite comic book hero. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
Chris, you're right. Batman Returns it is. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
OK. Third question, Danny. Good idea to get this one right. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:40 | |
You can put a bit of pressure on him, hopefully knock him out. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:43 | |
Which actor starred as architect David Vincent | 0:22:43 | 0:22:47 | |
in the 1960s TV science fiction series The Invaders? | 0:22:47 | 0:22:52 | |
Bit of a tough one, this, as it's a bit before my time. | 0:22:56 | 0:22:59 | |
So I'm going to have to try and knock some answers out logically. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:04 | |
I've never heard of any of them, so that doesn't help me! | 0:23:04 | 0:23:07 | |
So I think I will do the tried and tested technique | 0:23:08 | 0:23:12 | |
of going down the middle and going for Barry Newman. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:14 | |
Chris is shaking his head. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
Roy Thinnes. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
Roy Thinnes is the right... What's the hand gesture, Chris? | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
That's how you tell an alien. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:23 | |
-Go on. -With the crooked finger. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
Roy Thinnes it is, Danny. Sorry. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:27 | |
Chris, your question. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:30 | |
The Autons are artificial life-forms | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
that appeared several times in which TV series? | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
Are these those shop window dummies that came to life | 0:23:40 | 0:23:43 | |
and started killing people in London? | 0:23:43 | 0:23:45 | |
In which case, it's Doctor Who. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:47 | |
-Was that a question, or your answer? -It's an answer. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:49 | |
It's the right answer. Doctor Who is correct. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
Sorry, Danny, he's knocked you out. They're playing a strong game here, these Eggheads. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:56 | |
They've won every single round. So if you come back to us, we'll play that final. | 0:23:56 | 0:24:00 | |
This is what we've been playing towards. | 0:24:02 | 0:24:04 | |
It's time for the final round, | 0:24:04 | 0:24:06 | |
which, as always, is general knowledge. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:08 | |
But those of you who lost your head-to-heads | 0:24:08 | 0:24:10 | |
won't be allowed to take part in this round. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:13 | |
So, Scott, Lisa, Danny and Julie from the Fat Dogs, | 0:24:13 | 0:24:17 | |
would you please leave the studio. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
So, Lindsey, you are playing to win the Fat Dogs £37,000. | 0:24:20 | 0:24:25 | |
Unfortunately, you're playing alone! | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
Dave, Daphne, Chris, Barry and Pat, | 0:24:27 | 0:24:30 | |
you're playing for something that money can't buy, | 0:24:30 | 0:24:33 | |
the Eggheads' reputation. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:34 | |
As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn. | 0:24:34 | 0:24:37 | |
This time the questions are all general knowledge and you are allowed to confer. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:41 | |
I know you're on your own. It doesn't help you! | 0:24:41 | 0:24:44 | |
Lindsey, the question is, is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five? | 0:24:44 | 0:24:48 | |
-Would you like to go first or second? -I'll go first, please. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
Here we go. Good luck. What is a soothsayer said to do? | 0:24:54 | 0:24:58 | |
Thankfully, I do know the answer. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:04 | |
Certainly not turn lead to gold. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
A soothsayer was a fortune teller, so the answer must be foretell the future. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:12 | |
Foretell the future is quite right. Well done. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:14 | |
Most famously, I suppose, was with Julius Caesar, wasn't it? | 0:25:14 | 0:25:17 | |
The Ides of March and all that. I wonder if this is your Ides of March, Eggheads? | 0:25:17 | 0:25:22 | |
Is this the moment the trophy falls? Let's see. Your first question. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:26 | |
The NBA basketball team The Golden State Warriors | 0:25:26 | 0:25:29 | |
is based in which US state? | 0:25:29 | 0:25:31 | |
ALL: California. | 0:25:34 | 0:25:36 | |
-California. -Straight there. -Yes. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
-The Golden State. -I see, that's the clue, is it? | 0:25:39 | 0:25:42 | |
OK. California is the answer. Well done. | 0:25:42 | 0:25:44 | |
Right. Your question, Lindsey. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:46 | |
The Tippeligaen is which country's premier league for men's football? | 0:25:46 | 0:25:52 | |
I'll spell it for you. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:58 | |
T-I-P-P-E-L-I-G-A-E-N. | 0:25:58 | 0:26:01 | |
-Tippeligaen. -Crikey. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:05 | |
Football is definitely not my thing. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:07 | |
There's really nothing that stands out at me | 0:26:08 | 0:26:12 | |
that I could even use any knowledge on, really. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:18 | |
It's going to have to be a complete guess. | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
And I'm just going to say... | 0:26:22 | 0:26:25 | |
Turkey. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:27 | |
Tippeligaen. Any Eggheads know? | 0:26:27 | 0:26:31 | |
I don't know. It sounds like it would be Norway. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
-Yes. -It's Norwegian. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:35 | |
It's Norway. Tippeligaen. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:38 | |
OK, Eggheads, | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
your question. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
Which nickname was commonly given to the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve? | 0:26:42 | 0:26:46 | |
ALL: Wavy Navy. | 0:26:51 | 0:26:53 | |
Yes, they were called the Wavy Navy | 0:26:53 | 0:26:56 | |
because of the stripes they wore. | 0:26:56 | 0:26:59 | |
You don't think they were the Hors d'oeuvres Reserves? | 0:26:59 | 0:27:02 | |
-No. -No, no, no. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
Wavy Navy is the right answer. That was the nickname. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:07 | |
So, Lindsey, £37,000 you're playing for here. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
No pressures! | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
The most we've ever given out on the show was 75,000, | 0:27:12 | 0:27:16 | |
but 37 is the second biggest amount. We're equal with that. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
If you don't get this right, the game is over. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:22 | |
Your third question. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:23 | |
In which area of the creative arts is Ken Garland a renowned figure? | 0:27:23 | 0:27:29 | |
Ken Garland. | 0:27:35 | 0:27:37 | |
Again, I don't know the answer. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:42 | |
I'm going to have to have another stab in the dark, I'm afraid. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:46 | |
I will go for... | 0:27:49 | 0:27:51 | |
choreography. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:54 | |
The answer is graphic design. | 0:27:55 | 0:27:57 | |
-Oh! Never mind! -I'm sorry, we have to say, "Congratulations, Eggheads, | 0:27:57 | 0:28:01 | |
"you have won." | 0:28:01 | 0:28:03 | |
-Lindsey, commiserations. -Thank you. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 | |
Playing for the 37,000 jackpot. Thank you for taking part. | 0:28:11 | 0:28:15 | |
-It's only easy if you know the answers! -So true. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
The Eggheads are very, very good, even when they're not good. That's the trouble. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:21 | |
They've done what comes naturally to them. Their winning streak continues. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:25 | |
It does mean the Fat Dogs won't be going home with the £37,000. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:29 | |
I'm sorry. So the money rolls over to our next show. | 0:28:29 | 0:28:32 | |
Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you? | 0:28:32 | 0:28:35 | |
Let's see, next time, if a new team of challengers have the brains to defeat them. | 0:28:35 | 0:28:40 | |
£38,000 says they don't. | 0:28:40 | 0:28:42 | |
Until then, goodbye! | 0:28:42 | 0:28:44 | |
