0:00:04 > 0:00:07These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.

0:00:10 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:11 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

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

0:00:23 > 0:00:25Welcome to Eggheads,

0:00:25 > 0:00:27the 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 > 0:00:35And taking on the awesome might of our quiz Goliaths today...

0:00:38 > 0:00:41This team of friends quiz regularly together in their local pub,

0:00:41 > 0:00:44Chaplins, in Sunderland. Let's meet them.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47Hi. I'm Derek. I can't believe I'm 57

0:00:47 > 0:00:51and I'm the managing director of a car spares and accessories company.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54Hello, I'm Anthony. I'm 50 and I'm an employment advisor.

0:00:54 > 0:00:58Hello. My name's Adam. I'm aged 40 and I'm an employment advisor.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Hi. I'm John. I'm 55 and I'm a fire-fighter.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04Hello. I'm Daniel. I'm 27 and I'm a tutor.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07So, Derek and Chaplin Smilers, welcome.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09- Hello!- Hi.- Harvey's Chaplins. Is that right?

0:01:09 > 0:01:12Yes, it's a small local pub in Sunderland.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15And there's a connection with Chaplin and the word smile?

0:01:15 > 0:01:17We couldn't figure out a name,

0:01:17 > 0:01:20so we decided to come up with the song Smile.

0:01:20 > 0:01:25It was a famous song in 1954 for Nat King Cole in the States

0:01:25 > 0:01:28and also for Petula Clark in the UK.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32The words encourage the listener to smile no matter what the face of adversity is,

0:01:32 > 0:01:35because tomorrow's always going to be a bit brighter.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37- That'll come in useful here!- Yeah.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39And did Charlie Chaplin write that song, then?

0:01:39 > 0:01:42I was hoping the Eggheads would get that link.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45- OK.- Yes.- Sorry, I've messed up your question!

0:01:45 > 0:01:48Did Charlie Chaplin write that song, Eggheads?

0:01:48 > 0:01:52- Apparently.- Promise me you knew that before I accidentally said it.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56- Look at the way they say yes.- He actually wrote the music in 1936.

0:01:56 > 0:02:00- Any other facts about the song? - No.- Not from me.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02It's suspicious that, isn't it?

0:02:02 > 0:02:05They claim they knew it and they've got nothing more to add!

0:02:05 > 0:02:09OK. I hope you keep smiling throughout this contest. Good luck.

0:02:09 > 0:02:13Every day there is £1,000-worth of cash up for grabs for our challengers.

0:02:13 > 0:02:18However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22So, Chaplin Smilers, the Eggheads have won the last 39 games.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24They're on a heck of a run here!

0:02:24 > 0:02:29And that means £40,000 says you can't beat them today.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33I have not seen the jackpot this high ever in my time doing the show.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Let's see if you can walk away with it.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37The first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Geography.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Who would like this?

0:02:39 > 0:02:42This is the one we needed! I don't like Geography.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45- I think Daniel said he would do this.- I'll take Geography.

0:02:45 > 0:02:50OK, Daniel. Forward you go. Take on an Egghead. Who would you like to knock out?

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Dave, please. Tremendous Knowledge Dave.

0:02:52 > 0:02:57OK. Daniel from the Chaplin Smilers versus Tremendous Knowledge Dave on Geography.

0:02:57 > 0:03:01To ensure no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05- Daniel, you love to quiz?- I do, yes.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08Yes, I play in a local quiz league for a local pub

0:03:08 > 0:03:13and I go up and down the country playing in the same competitions as Pat and David and Kevin.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15So have you met some of them before?

0:03:15 > 0:03:17I've met Barry, Pat, Kevin, David.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Ah, we've got a real quizzer here!

0:03:19 > 0:03:23You went to Northampton from Sunderland, just to compete in one quiz. Is that right?

0:03:23 > 0:03:27A car of us went down to Northampton to do a quiz event recently.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29It was quite a journey but it was worth it in the end.

0:03:29 > 0:03:33Good chance to meet up with fellow quizzers. It's more of a social occasion than anything else.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Dave, you're up against a quizzer, here.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38Yes, I am. He's a very strong opponent.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40You probably appreciate that, I imagine?

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Definitely. No question about it.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45So, great contest to come. Geography is the subject.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47Daniel, would you like to go first or second?

0:03:47 > 0:03:49I'll go first, please, Jeremy.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54Your first question, Daniel. Good luck.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56Cape Horn is part of which country?

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Well, I've heard of this, obviously, a lot of times.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04It's quite a famous place in history.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07I'm just having trouble locating where it actually is.

0:04:07 > 0:04:09I don't think it's in Portugal.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11I'm going to rule out Sri Lanka.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14I've got a feeling it's in Chile, at the bottom of Chile.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16So I'll take Chile as my answer.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Chile is the right answer. Well done.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23I said, "Chilay" because somebody once told me it's pronounced...

0:04:23 > 0:04:26- But it never sounds right, saying that.- No. That's the correct pronunciation, but...

0:04:26 > 0:04:30- If you're Chilean, maybe you can say "Chilay".- OK.

0:04:30 > 0:04:34Dave, your question. Kentish Town is an area in the north-west of which English city?

0:04:36 > 0:04:38COCKNEY ACCENT: It's in London Town!

0:04:38 > 0:04:42It is in London. You weren't going to fall for Manchester there!

0:04:42 > 0:04:46Not at all. I've been around Kentish Town. It's all right round there.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Daniel, your question.

0:04:48 > 0:04:55Which of these is a Swiss ski resort in the canton of Graubunden?

0:04:59 > 0:05:01I'll just spell it for you.

0:05:01 > 0:05:06G-R-A-U-B-U-N-D-E-N.

0:05:06 > 0:05:11- Graubunden.- The only connection I've got with skiing out of these answers

0:05:11 > 0:05:17is St Moritz, where a lot of Winter Olympics were held once or twice.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19But I honestly don't know. But because of that connection,

0:05:19 > 0:05:21I'll have to go for St Moritz.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Yes, you are good. St Moritz is the right answer. Well done.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29And Val d'Isere, Judith, is France, is it not?

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- Yes, Val d'Isere is France. - And Bergamot?- Must be Italy.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35- Italy.- Yeah.- OK. Dave, your question.

0:05:35 > 0:05:39Arrecife, A-R-R-E-C-I-F-E,

0:05:39 > 0:05:43is the most populous city on which Canary Island?

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Right. Um...

0:05:52 > 0:05:54I'm going to go for... I can't pronounce it!

0:05:54 > 0:05:56Fuert...

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Fuerteventura.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01Yeah, I'm going to go for that.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04I'm afraid no matter how you pronounce it, it's still wrong.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06Daniel, do you know this one?

0:06:06 > 0:06:08I don't. I would have said Lanzarote, but I'm not sure.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11- Yes, it's Lanzarote.- OK. - Is the correct answer.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13So you're in the lead, Daniel.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15If you get this one right, you'll be in the final round.

0:06:15 > 0:06:20Here we go. Where in Europe are the caves known as Stay Behind Cave,

0:06:20 > 0:06:24Beefsteak Cave and Goat's Hair Twin Cave?

0:06:27 > 0:06:31Can't say I've ever heard of these. So it's going to be a guess.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33I've been to Northern Ireland once or twice.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36Something's ringing a bell in my mind that it could be that.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39I don't know much at all about Gibraltar or Malta.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42So it's going to have to be Northern Ireland, Jeremy.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45- Let's see if any Eggheads know. - I've got an idea it's Gibraltar.

0:06:45 > 0:06:50It is Gibraltar, Daniel. Let's see if Dave can catch you up

0:06:50 > 0:06:52and take you to sudden death.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55Cleeve Hill is the highest point in which English county?

0:07:00 > 0:07:01Gloucestershire.

0:07:01 > 0:07:06- Guess?- Something in my mind was saying Gloucestershire.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Gloucestershire is the right answer.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10So it's two points each and we go to sudden death, Daniel.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13It means it's a bit harder cos I don't give you alternative answers.

0:07:13 > 0:07:19So, here we go. The Hondo River serves as most of the international border

0:07:19 > 0:07:22between Mexico and which other country?

0:07:22 > 0:07:27I know where Mexico is. I'm just trying to think what else it borders.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35Obviously it borders America, but I'm not sure that's where the Hondo River is.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38I'm trying to think what's next down.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40I've got a feeling Venezuela might be in that area.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44So I'm going to go for Venezuela.

0:07:46 > 0:07:47Eggheads?

0:07:47 > 0:07:49- Belize?- Yes, Kevin, Belize.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52Belize. Belize is the answer.

0:07:52 > 0:07:54So Dave has a chance to win now.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57The Alexander archipelago is a group of islands

0:07:57 > 0:08:02that lie off the south-eastern coast of which US state?

0:08:02 > 0:08:05The Alexander archipelago is a group of islands

0:08:05 > 0:08:09that lie off the south-eastern coast of which US state?

0:08:11 > 0:08:14I've not heard of this, but I'll go Florida.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17Yes, south-eastern makes you think Florida.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21There's another place which has a big south-eastern coast. Barry knows.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24- Alaska.- Alaska.- Alaska. Yep.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26So you're still level. This is good, Daniel.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29You've got a bit of daylight. See if you can take advantage.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32Which Palestinian city in the West Bank

0:08:32 > 0:08:34has an Arabic name meaning Height of God?

0:08:34 > 0:08:37I'm not too familiar with that part of the world.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41I'm going to have to think if I know any Palestinian cities.

0:08:41 > 0:08:45The only one that's coming to mind is Gaza, but I'm not sure where that is.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48So it's going to have to be Gaza.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50It's not Gaza. Gaza's not in the West Bank.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53I suppose the clue, Height of God, God - Allah,

0:08:53 > 0:08:55- it's Ramallah.- Ramallah.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57Where Yasser Arafat lived for a long time.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00OK. Dave, your question to take the round.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04Which Indian state was formerly known as Madras State?

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Madras.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09Tamil Nadu.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11Yeah!

0:09:11 > 0:09:12Good play!

0:09:12 > 0:09:15Dave, you're in the final round.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17Sorry, Daniel. You're knocked out. Well played,

0:09:17 > 0:09:18but you haven't made it to the final.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20Please both rejoin your teams.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Good play, Daniel, but they're tough, aren't they?

0:09:25 > 0:09:28- Definitely.- So the Chaplin Smilers have lost a brain.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30The Eggheads have not lost a brain yet.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32The next subject is Music. Who would like this?

0:09:34 > 0:09:36- John?- John, fancy doing that one?

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Yeah, I'll have a go at Music, if you want.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40John against which Egg?

0:09:43 > 0:09:45I'll have Kevin, Jeremy.

0:09:45 > 0:09:48OK. So, we call him The Grand Master.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Are you in a Grand Master mood today, or just normal?

0:09:50 > 0:09:52We'll find out, won't we?

0:09:52 > 0:09:55John from the Chaplin Smilers versus Kevin from the Eggheads.

0:09:55 > 0:09:59To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions in the question room.

0:10:00 > 0:10:01John, you're a fire-fighter?

0:10:01 > 0:10:06- I am, Jeremy, yes.- And your surname is Alison, which is interesting,

0:10:06 > 0:10:08- because your wife's name is... - Alison!

0:10:08 > 0:10:10- So she's Alison Allison? - She is, yes!

0:10:10 > 0:10:13It can cause some confusion at certain times!

0:10:13 > 0:10:15She's forgiven you for that by now, has she?

0:10:15 > 0:10:18We've been married for 26 years, so I think she must have!

0:10:18 > 0:10:22Great stuff. We're on Music. What's your period of music? What do you like?

0:10:22 > 0:10:27Not so much the modern stuff. More the '60s, '70s, '80s

0:10:27 > 0:10:29and the rock stuff.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32I was listening to Led Zeppelin in my changing room earlier. Is that one of yours?

0:10:32 > 0:10:35- That would be my sort of question, yes.- Let's see what we can do.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39Good luck to you both. Here we go. John, would you like the first or second set of questions?

0:10:39 > 0:10:41I'll go second, please, Jeremy.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47Kevin, your first question. Which jazz standard features the line

0:10:47 > 0:10:51"You must remember this, a kiss is still a kiss."

0:10:55 > 0:10:58It's famously used in Casablanca, of course.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00It's As Time Goes By.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03As Time Goes By is the right answer.

0:11:03 > 0:11:06- And he never said, "Play it again, Sam."- No.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08No. He said, "Play it."

0:11:08 > 0:11:10- "You played it for her, you play it for me."- Yeah.- Interesting.

0:11:12 > 0:11:16John, what is the title of the 1972 UK number one single

0:11:16 > 0:11:19that is often referred to as Starry, Starry Night?

0:11:22 > 0:11:27That'll be the one dedicated to Vincent Van Gogh, so it's Vincent, Jeremy.

0:11:27 > 0:11:32Vincent is correct. Do you know who wrote it or performed it?

0:11:32 > 0:11:35- Don McLean.- That's right. Very much.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37OK, Kevin, your question.

0:11:37 > 0:11:42The singer Ute Lemper was born in which country in 1963?

0:11:42 > 0:11:45Ute is U-T-E and Lemper, L-E-M-P-E-R.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51As far as I'm aware, she's German.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54I'm trying to rule out the possibility that she was born somewhere else.

0:11:54 > 0:11:58A lot of Germans were born in what's now Poland.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01But I'll have to stick with... She's German, as far as I know.

0:12:01 > 0:12:02So Germany.

0:12:02 > 0:12:05She is German and she's from Germany. You're right.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07John,

0:12:07 > 0:12:12who collaborated with Will.i.am on his UK number one single Scream and Shout?

0:12:15 > 0:12:19Well, I'm guessing with this one, Jeremy.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21My daughter would know.

0:12:22 > 0:12:24Based on he's fairly current,

0:12:24 > 0:12:27I'll go for the most currently popular one, Lady Gaga.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31Eggheads, do you know?

0:12:31 > 0:12:34- ALL: Britney Spears. - Britney Spears is the answer.

0:12:34 > 0:12:38- But it's out of your time frame that you gave us earlier!- It is.

0:12:38 > 0:12:42Sorry, you're wrong. So with this question, Kevin can take his place in the final round.

0:12:42 > 0:12:46What was the title of the opening track on David Bowie's 1972 album

0:12:46 > 0:12:51The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders from Mars?

0:12:56 > 0:13:00No, I'm afraid it's not an album I'm familiar with.

0:13:00 > 0:13:01So I'll have to guess.

0:13:01 > 0:13:06I've nothing to go on. I'll try Seven Years in Tibet.

0:13:06 > 0:13:10It's that rare and very pleasing moment where I know something you don't!

0:13:10 > 0:13:13There are so few areas where I could ever say that.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16The only track that's on the album is Five Years.

0:13:16 > 0:13:17It's the first track as well.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19- So Five Years it is.- OK.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22The other ones are all on different albums.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25So you've got that wrong. John, you could have answered that?

0:13:25 > 0:13:28- Yes, I'd have know that.- You could probably have given us the lyric!

0:13:28 > 0:13:30"Pushing through the market square" and all that.

0:13:30 > 0:13:34- I'd have known it was off Ziggy. - OK. Here's your question.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37If you get this, we've drawn level and we go to sudden death.

0:13:37 > 0:13:43Linda di Chamounix is an operatic melodrama by which Italian composer?

0:13:46 > 0:13:50Well, it's not by Led Zeppelin so it'll be a total guess.

0:13:50 > 0:13:52I'll go down the middle for Puccini.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57Puccini is wrong. It's Donizetti, John, I'm afraid.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00So Kevin has beaten you there two to one in the music round.

0:14:00 > 0:14:04And Kevin will be in the final. Please both rejoin your team-mates.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09- Derek, the Chaplins are still smiling?- Oh, yes.- Very much so.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12- In the face of adversity! - You definitely are!

0:14:12 > 0:14:14The Chaplin Smilers have lost two brains from the final round.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17The Eggheads have not lost a brain.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20We've got a huge jackpot today. Let's see what happens.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22The next subject is Sport.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24- I can do that one.- Definitely.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28- That's me.- OK, Antony. Keep smiling through this one.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29Who do you want to take?

0:14:29 > 0:14:32- I'll take on Judith. - Anthony from the Chaplin Smilers

0:14:32 > 0:14:36versus Judith from the Eggheads on Sport. Please take your positions.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40Anthony, which sport do you love the most?

0:14:40 > 0:14:45I'm a mad golfer, so golf is the love of my life after my family.

0:14:45 > 0:14:49And you won, what was it, a place in a team event, did you?

0:14:49 > 0:14:54My local golf club won nine rounds of a national newspaper competition

0:14:54 > 0:14:59and we qualified for four teamsmen through to El Rompido in Spain

0:14:59 > 0:15:01for a four-team shoot-out.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04- What was the result of that? - We came fourth!

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Wish I hadn't asked that, now!

0:15:06 > 0:15:09So we're on Sport. Anthony, would you like to go first or second?

0:15:09 > 0:15:11I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Here we go. Good luck. In January 2013,

0:15:16 > 0:15:19who conducted the television interview in which Lance Armstrong

0:15:19 > 0:15:23admitted to doping during his Tour de France victories?

0:15:26 > 0:15:29It's not really the sport I was hoping for.

0:15:29 > 0:15:32But this was a big thing on the telly.

0:15:32 > 0:15:35I'm pretty sure it was Oprah Winfrey.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Oprah Winfrey is the right answer. Well done.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40Judith, your question. In 2011,

0:15:40 > 0:15:43the Malaysian businessman Tony Fernandez

0:15:43 > 0:15:45became chairman of which English football club?

0:15:49 > 0:15:52Is becoming chairman the same as owning it?

0:15:52 > 0:15:55Um, I don't know.

0:15:55 > 0:15:56QPR.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58How do you do that?

0:15:58 > 0:16:01I don't know. I was thinking if it's the same as the owner,

0:16:01 > 0:16:05Liverpool's owned by somebody else and so is Manchester United.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07And I don't know who owns QPR.

0:16:07 > 0:16:11Frustrating, Anthony, isn't it? So little knowledge, but the right answer.

0:16:11 > 0:16:12QPR is correct.

0:16:13 > 0:16:14OK. Anthony.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17The Ireland Wolfhounds

0:16:17 > 0:16:19are a team in which sport?

0:16:22 > 0:16:25It's not a question I'm familiar with, Jeremy,

0:16:25 > 0:16:27so it's going to be a bit of a guess.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32Of those three, I'll have a stab at rugby union.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36Yes, you're right. Rugby union is correct.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40OK. So you have a second point.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43Let's see what Judith does. Can she hang on in here?

0:16:43 > 0:16:46The Nippon Budokan in Japan, Judith,

0:16:46 > 0:16:50was a venue built to host which type of event at the 1964 Summer Olympics?

0:16:54 > 0:16:58Well, I think Budokan means a place where you do martial arts.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00So I'll say martial arts.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02Martial arts is the correct answer.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Back to you, Anthony. In 2012,

0:17:04 > 0:17:09Pamela Cookey was named captain of the England team in which sport?

0:17:12 > 0:17:15Again, not a name I'm familiar with.

0:17:16 > 0:17:17Again, it'll be a bit of a guess.

0:17:20 > 0:17:24I think I know the captain of the women's football team

0:17:24 > 0:17:25and I don't think it's that name.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27So I'll discount that one.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30I'm going to have a total guess at hockey.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35Ah, you missed it.

0:17:35 > 0:17:37It's netball.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39You were right to rule out football, but it's netball.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41Judith, here's your question.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43Get this right and you've got the round.

0:17:43 > 0:17:48Martine Wright, who won the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Helen Rollason award

0:17:48 > 0:17:52competed in which event of the 2012 Paralympics?

0:17:56 > 0:17:57Oh, dear.

0:17:58 > 0:18:04Which is the most... I'm trying to think which sport is the most high profile.

0:18:04 > 0:18:09I think I'm going to go... I'm sort of fixated on sitting volleyball.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12Sitting volleyball is your answer.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14Sitting volleyball is exactly what she does.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16You're right, Judith. You've taken the round.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Well done. Sorry, Anthony,

0:18:18 > 0:18:23you've been knocked out by Judith on Sport, which is a big morale boost for Miss Keppel there.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26Please come back and rejoin your team-mates.

0:18:28 > 0:18:32It's not quite going to plan, but you're still in with a chance.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34People have done it with just one player left.

0:18:34 > 0:18:38So the Chaplin Smilers have lost three from the final round.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41The Eggheads are still intact over there.

0:18:41 > 0:18:42How frustrating!

0:18:42 > 0:18:44The next subject is History.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47Who would like this? Either Derek or Adam.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50- What do you reckon?- Yeah.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53- Jeremy, I'll take History.- Which Egghead would you like to play?

0:18:53 > 0:18:55I'm going to play Barry.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59Adam from the Chaplin Smilers versus Barry from the Eggheads. Please go to the question room.

0:19:01 > 0:19:03Barry, which period of history is your favourite?

0:19:03 > 0:19:05I like the Classics. Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07And certain characters?

0:19:07 > 0:19:09I've always had a soft spot for Pericles.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12He was the most wonderful administrator.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15He was in charge of Athens at the height of its glory.

0:19:15 > 0:19:18- Did he die in a horrible way?- He died of the plague, unfortunately.

0:19:18 > 0:19:22- They all seem to, don't they?- Yes, sadly, things weren't as good in those days.

0:19:22 > 0:19:26OK. Good luck, both of you. Adam, would you like to go first or second?

0:19:26 > 0:19:28I'll go first, please, Jeremy, if that's OK.

0:19:31 > 0:19:38First question. In 1959, what became the 50th state to join the USA?

0:19:41 > 0:19:42Right.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45I'm going to rule out Rhode Island,

0:19:45 > 0:19:47because I don't think it's that.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49It's either Hawaii or Florida for me.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53I think Hawaii was in the '40s somewhere,

0:19:53 > 0:19:55so I'm going to go for Florida, Jeremy.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00- See if your team-mates know. - Hawaii-Five-O.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03Hawaii-Five-O, they're saying.

0:20:03 > 0:20:04- Hawaii is the answer.- Oh, well.

0:20:04 > 0:20:06OK. Barry's question.

0:20:06 > 0:20:13In Spanish history, who jointly ruled Castile and Aragon with Ferdinand II?

0:20:15 > 0:20:18This was the king and queen of Spain

0:20:18 > 0:20:20who completed the Reconquista,

0:20:20 > 0:20:24the re-conquering of Spain from the Moors in 1492.

0:20:24 > 0:20:27It was Ferdinand and Isabella.

0:20:27 > 0:20:28Good background.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31Isabella is the right answer.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33He does love his history, Adam!

0:20:33 > 0:20:35I gathered that!

0:20:35 > 0:20:37OK, Adam your question.

0:20:37 > 0:20:43Willi Stoph served as the prime minister of which country in the 20th century?

0:20:45 > 0:20:48Willi is W-I-L-L-I

0:20:48 > 0:20:51and then new word Stoph, S-T-O-P-H.

0:20:55 > 0:20:56Willi Stoph.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59I don't think it's Romania,

0:20:59 > 0:21:03judging by the way it's pronounced.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07And it could be one of either East Germany or Poland.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11I'm torn between the two.

0:21:11 > 0:21:12I'm going to go for...

0:21:14 > 0:21:15Ooh.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17East Germany.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19Brilliant. You're right. Well done.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21Well done.

0:21:21 > 0:21:23Barry, your question.

0:21:23 > 0:21:27The 18th-century born Christian minister William Cowherd

0:21:27 > 0:21:31was particularly known for his pioneering role in which movement?

0:21:36 > 0:21:3818th century.

0:21:38 > 0:21:44That was well before there were any international peace organisations.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45So I shall rule that out.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48Suffragism didn't come in until the 19th century,

0:21:48 > 0:21:51so I guess he must be a vegetarian.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54He was indeed, big into vegetarianism.

0:21:54 > 0:21:57I guess the cow herd he was trying to protect, wasn't he?

0:21:57 > 0:22:00- Mm, good name!- Good name.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02Willi Stoph, the cow herd, who's coming next?

0:22:02 > 0:22:06Your third question, Adam. Get this one right if you can.

0:22:06 > 0:22:12If you don't get it right, we're looking at a very lonely Chaplin Smiler in the final.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14Derek is willing you on here!

0:22:14 > 0:22:17During World War II what name did the Allies give

0:22:17 > 0:22:21to the massive transport operation that began in August 1944

0:22:21 > 0:22:24to ensure supplies for forces across Europe?

0:22:30 > 0:22:31Right.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37I know pretty much about World War II.

0:22:37 > 0:22:38I studied it at A level.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41But I must admit I've not heard of this.

0:22:41 > 0:22:46I'm going to go with Black Ball Express.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49- It's Red Ball.- Red Ball.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Red Ball Express.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54You've been beaten by Barry on History. But he's good at History.

0:22:55 > 0:22:59You won't be in the final which we are about to play, if you come back to us.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04OK, Derek. The unthinkable has happened.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06- It certainly has.- It's just you.

0:23:06 > 0:23:11- This is where we need to remember the song. The song your team name is based on is called Smile.- Yes.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15And I'm going to. Cos tomorrow's going to be another day.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17What are the words of this great song?

0:23:17 > 0:23:18"Smile, though your heart is aching,

0:23:18 > 0:23:20"Smile, though it may be breaking."

0:23:20 > 0:23:24Perfect! OK! Take our own advice, there!

0:23:24 > 0:23:26This is what we've been playing towards.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28It's the final round, which, as always, is general knowledge.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30A lot of money being played for, here.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32It does mean, though,

0:23:32 > 0:23:36that those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be allowed to take part in the final.

0:23:36 > 0:23:41So, Anthony, Adam, John and Daniel from the Chaplin Smilers,

0:23:41 > 0:23:43you can keep smiling, but please leave the studio.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47- Derek, good luck.- Thank you.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49You're on your own, but it has not reduced the jackpot.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51There's still all to play for.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53You're playing to win the Chaplin Smilers £40,000.

0:23:53 > 0:23:57Barry, Pat, Judith, Kevin and Dave,

0:23:57 > 0:23:59you are playing for something that money can't buy.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01The Eggheads' reputation.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:24:04 > 0:24:08The questions are all general knowledge. You are allowed to confer.

0:24:08 > 0:24:11I know that doesn't help you! Confer with yourself.

0:24:11 > 0:24:16Derek, the question is, is your one brain able to overcome the Eggheads' five?

0:24:16 > 0:24:18Would you like to go first or second?

0:24:18 > 0:24:20I'll go first, please.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26Derek, it's been great seeing your team. I wish you all the best.

0:24:26 > 0:24:31Your question. Who married the heiress Nancy Shevell in 2011?

0:24:34 > 0:24:37Ah, I think I have seen this on the news.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40Definitely wasn't Rod Stewart.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42And it wasn't Mick Jagger.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45I'm fairly certain it was Paul McCartney.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47Paul McCartney is the right answer. Well done.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49Eggheads,

0:24:49 > 0:24:53the London Underground celebrated which anniversary in 2013?

0:24:56 > 0:24:59- 150.- 1963, wasn't it?- 1863.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01- 150.- 150.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06That's its 150th anniversary.

0:25:06 > 0:25:12It is its 150th. Amazing. How did they dig down that deep

0:25:12 > 0:25:13150 years ago?

0:25:13 > 0:25:17- The early underground was mostly overground.- They did it with shovels

0:25:17 > 0:25:18and lots of people.

0:25:18 > 0:25:20Just pulled the earth out and put it somewhere.

0:25:20 > 0:25:25- But then they had to... It was not electrified then, was it?- No.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27No, it was all coal and steam.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29- What it must have been like to travel in it...- Hellish.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33150 years is the right answer. Well done.

0:25:33 > 0:25:35Back to you, Derek.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38Tver and Pskov are cities in which country?

0:25:38 > 0:25:42I'll spell them for you. T-V-E-R, Tver,

0:25:42 > 0:25:44and Pskov, P-S-K-O-V.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51I'm fairly sure it's not Armenia.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59I'm going to go with Ukraine. I don't think it's Russia. Ukraine.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02- Eggheads, do you know?- Russia.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04- Russia.- It is Russia? - Russia is the answer.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08Eggheads, to take the lead.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11Sphalerite is the main ore of which metal?

0:26:13 > 0:26:14Zinc.

0:26:17 > 0:26:19That's zinc, Jeremy.

0:26:19 > 0:26:23It baffles me how you know this stuff. You all seem to know it.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Sphalerite is the main ore of zinc. You're right.

0:26:26 > 0:26:30It's almost as if that's the most important fact in the world!

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Right, Derek. You need to get this one right to stay in.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36If you get it wrong, I'm afraid the contest is over.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39If you get it right, they could struggle and go to sudden death.

0:26:39 > 0:26:42- £40,000.- Yes.- Keep on... - I'll keep smiling.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45You are still smiling. That's what's so great about your team.

0:26:45 > 0:26:49The Cats of Copenhagen, published for the first time in 2012,

0:26:49 > 0:26:51is a children's story by which author?

0:26:56 > 0:27:00Now, then, I've got a sneaking suspicion

0:27:00 > 0:27:03that this could be lost papers that were found, or a lost story.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06I don't think it's James Joyce.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11And I don't think Thomas Hardy would have written something like that.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15Could it be Charles Dickens?

0:27:19 > 0:27:22If it's what I think it is, I'm going to say Charles Dickens.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26It's not Charles Dickens.

0:27:26 > 0:27:31It's certainly something discovered that hadn't been known about at the time.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36It's James Joyce. James Joyce wrote The Cats of Copenhagen.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40So congratulations, Eggheads. You have won.

0:27:45 > 0:27:49I'm sorry you were down to one at the end there, cos you played well.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51It was very good to see you all.

0:27:51 > 0:27:53- Thank you.- Commiserations to the Chaplin Smilers.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56The Eggheads have done what comes naturally to them.

0:27:56 > 0:27:58This amazing winning streak continues.

0:27:58 > 0:28:01I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £40,000.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04So the money rolls over to the next show.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06Quite a bit of money to roll over.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Eggheads, congratulations.

0:28:08 > 0:28:12I really can't imagine you ever being beaten. That'll jinx it!

0:28:12 > 0:28:16Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.

0:28:16 > 0:28:21£41,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
