0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:15Together they make up the Eggheads, arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20The question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:35They are the Eggheads. Challenging our quiz champions today
0:00:35 > 0:00:39are Homed To Perfection. This team of colleagues all work
0:00:39 > 0:00:43for the same housing association in North Lincolnshire. Let's meet them.
0:00:43 > 0:00:47Hi, my name is James, I'm 22 and I'm a customer adviser.
0:00:47 > 0:00:48Hi, my name's Craig.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51I'm 51 and I'm an antisocial behaviour co-ordinator.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Hi, my name's Lynn.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56I'm 51 and I'm a sheltered and retirement scheme officer.
0:00:56 > 0:01:00Hi, my name's Sharon, I'm 41 and I'm a head of finance.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Dave, I'm 41 and a customer adviser.
0:01:04 > 0:01:09Welcome to you, Homed To Perfection. Whose bright idea was it to take on the Eggheads?
0:01:09 > 0:01:12That would be Dave's, unfortunately.
0:01:12 > 0:01:17- That's me.- Dave, you get the glory or the blame, depending on how it all goes.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21- Are you a regular viewer of Eggheads?- I most certainly am.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Do you quiz at all together, James?
0:01:23 > 0:01:27We've actually never quizzed together as a team before.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30It could be our final quizzing stand, really.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Or it could be the start of a beautiful relationship.
0:01:33 > 0:01:34Definitely.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38Let's get going. Let me tell you what's been happening up to this point.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41Every day, there's £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:43 > 0:01:45the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:45 > 0:01:49Homed To Perfection, the Eggheads have won the last 12 games
0:01:49 > 0:01:54which means, of course, £13,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads.
0:01:54 > 0:01:55Let's get on with it then.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59Our first head-to-head battle is on the subject of Geography.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02Any one of you can take this on
0:02:02 > 0:02:05as it's the opening round. Geography, who wants to play?
0:02:05 > 0:02:08- Craig.- Yeah.- Craig, yeah?
0:02:08 > 0:02:10OK, I'll take Geography, yes.
0:02:10 > 0:02:16- All right, and which Egghead would you like to take?- Now then, we'll focus on our strategy.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19I can't remember what we said.
0:02:19 > 0:02:25- I think it's got to be either Barry or Chris.- Barry or Chris? - I'd go for Barry if I were you.
0:02:25 > 0:02:26It'll be Barry then.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30Right. "I'd go for Barry if I were you," Craig obeying orders there!
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- LAUGHTER I always do.- Of course.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36It's Craig and Barry into the Question Room, please,
0:02:36 > 0:02:38just to make sure you can't confer.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43So, Craig, what's your feeling, what's your choice?
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Do you want to go first or second?
0:02:45 > 0:02:49I'd like... Yes, I'll take first, please.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56Very good luck to you, Craig. It's Geography, first question.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01A part of a country that's separated from the rest geographically
0:03:01 > 0:03:04and surrounded by other countries is known as what?
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Right, now...
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Looking at that,
0:03:15 > 0:03:18I have to say I'm struggling on my first question.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24I won't go down "exclave"
0:03:24 > 0:03:28because that's probably like it's excluded.
0:03:28 > 0:03:32"Un..." is... No.
0:03:32 > 0:03:37So I'll go in the... As it's inside, I'll go "inclave".
0:03:37 > 0:03:39OK, "inclave"...
0:03:39 > 0:03:41It's not. It is "exclave".
0:03:41 > 0:03:44Excluded, I suppose it is because it's not joined up
0:03:44 > 0:03:46with the rest of the country.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Let's see how Barry does.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51What is the name for the system of roads
0:03:51 > 0:03:54that connects many major US cities?
0:03:59 > 0:04:03There's been a fair number of songs written about these.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05I believe they are interstate highways.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07- Interstate highways?- Yes.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09It's the right answer.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Craig, see if can you can get this.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13In the early 1970s,
0:04:13 > 0:04:17the Royal Seaforth Dock opened at the mouth of which estuary?
0:04:20 > 0:04:21Right.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23The Royal Seaforth Dock...
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Early '70s...
0:04:30 > 0:04:33I'm trying to think.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35The Thames would be the docks...
0:04:35 > 0:04:40The Mersey, Liverpool. The Severn which will go down towards Bristol.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46I think I'll go for... Again...
0:04:46 > 0:04:47Thames.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50OK, Thames for the Royal Seaforth Dock...
0:04:50 > 0:04:54In the 1970s, it was opened in the Mersey.
0:04:54 > 0:04:59- Oh, dear me.- The Mersey.- Bad start. - Bad start, but tricky questions.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Don't beat yourself up, Craig.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Just relax. Hope Barry doesn't get this, though.
0:05:04 > 0:05:09Water from Lake Tanganyika ultimately flows out into where?
0:05:13 > 0:05:17Well, Tanganyika is on the eastern side of Africa,
0:05:17 > 0:05:20so that would mean it should flow into the Indian Ocean.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- OK, the Indian Ocean, you think? - Mm-hm.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25- No!- Oh.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27It is the Atlantic.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31- You surprise me.- That's surprising a lot of the Eggheads as well.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35Yes, well, good news for you, Craig.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38It means you get another question.
0:05:38 > 0:05:39You need to get it.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42In terms of land area,
0:05:42 > 0:05:46what is the smallest province of the People's Republic of China?
0:05:51 > 0:05:55I've heard of the Sichuan area and the Yunnan area.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57I've never heard of Hainan.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00The smallest...
0:06:00 > 0:06:05I'll take a complete guess of Yunnan. I'm going down the middle.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09Yunnan for the smallest province of the People's Republic of China...
0:06:09 > 0:06:12No, Craig, it's not the right answer. Sorry.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Barry, do you know, of the other two? It's an easier question.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19It's Hainan, a smallish island off the coast of China.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21You did know it, Barry - Hainan.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24A really tough set there. A very broad category, Craig.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26No damage done
0:06:26 > 0:06:28to the overall team's chances.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31It's the first round and a lot of quizzing to do.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34But no place for you in the final round.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Craig, I sense you're a bit deflated, you would be after losing,
0:06:40 > 0:06:43but you've still got a part to play in the team.
0:06:43 > 0:06:44- Yeah.- Cheering them along
0:06:44 > 0:06:49as they try and get the money and in the selections against the Eggheads.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51As it stands, Homed To Perfection
0:06:51 > 0:06:53have lost one brain from the final round.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55The Eggheads are all there,
0:06:55 > 0:06:59but we've only played one round. Let's play another one - Music.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02Who'd like to play this from Homed To Perfection?
0:07:02 > 0:07:06- That's going to be you, James. - James.- Yeah.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- I'm happy with Music. - Go for it.- Yeah.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13OK, James, and choose any Egghead apart from Barry.
0:07:13 > 0:07:18I think it's got to be between Daphne, Pat or Dave,
0:07:18 > 0:07:22- but I'm not quite sure which one. - Daphne?- Yeah, I'll take on Daphne.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- All right, James and Daphne... - DAPHNE SIGHS
0:07:25 > 0:07:26What was that?
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Was that your battle sigh?
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- Yes.- Rather than a battle cry.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35OK, James and Daphne, into the Question Room, please.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38James, I hear your big brush with music stardom came
0:07:38 > 0:07:41when Bryce Avary drew on your face with a marker pen?
0:07:41 > 0:07:47Yeah, that's correct, just after a concert he did in Manchester.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51He drew all over my face in permanent marker pen.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54I had a job interview the next day, so...
0:07:54 > 0:07:56What did he draw? Can you tell us?
0:07:56 > 0:08:00I got a nice, curly moustache and a spiky goatee,
0:08:00 > 0:08:04as well as American football marks under my eyes and everything,
0:08:04 > 0:08:06then he put his signature on my chin.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Did you manage to get it off before the interview?
0:08:09 > 0:08:12No, not at all, but I still managed to get the job.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16- It's not this current job, is it? - No, not this current one.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19I think I can just still see that little... No, it's gone.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23OK, James, would you like to go first or second?
0:08:23 > 0:08:25I'll go first, please.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30OK, off we go and your first question.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Which song from The Sound Of Music begins with the line,
0:08:33 > 0:08:37"There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall"?
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Well, I'm not 100% sure.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49I can't say that I've seen it at all,
0:08:49 > 0:08:53but I think I might have seen the scene, hopefully,
0:08:53 > 0:08:58and they are near the stairs, so I'll go for So Long, Farewell.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Well done, yes. You haven't seen it?
0:09:01 > 0:09:03I haven't actually seen it.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05OK, well, there we are,
0:09:05 > 0:09:08but got the question right - So Long, Farewell.
0:09:08 > 0:09:12Daphne, first question. What name is given to the type of music
0:09:12 > 0:09:17that originated on the west coast of the USA in the early 1960s,
0:09:17 > 0:09:20featuring vocal harmonies and guitar riffs?
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Sounds like Surf Music?
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Surf Music? Yes, of course, the right answer.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34And, James,
0:09:34 > 0:09:38which singer was the final act at the Queen's Diamond Jubilee concert
0:09:38 > 0:09:41in London in June 2012?
0:09:45 > 0:09:49Again I can't say I watched that. I must have had prior engagements.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53But I'm going to take a bit of a guess at Paul McCartney.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Paul McCartney, bit of a guess, but got it again.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Hadn't seen that either. Doesn't matter.
0:10:00 > 0:10:06Daphne, who composed the 1934 work Rhapsody On A Theme Of Paganini?
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Sergei Rachmaninov.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18And the answer is Rachmaninov. Well done, Daphne.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Two-all. James, quizzing well here.
0:10:21 > 0:10:27Which song was the UK's number one single on the first day of 1970?
0:10:32 > 0:10:34This is quite a bit before my time,
0:10:34 > 0:10:38so this is going to have to be a complete guess, I'm afraid.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41There's actually only one song that I think I recognise,
0:10:41 > 0:10:44so I'll have to go for Sugar, Sugar.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47It's not Sugar, Sugar. Daphne, what do you think?
0:10:47 > 0:10:50- Two Little Boys. - Yeah, Two Little Boys.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54Nothing there. Daphne doesn't get the point. That was out of interest.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56She must answer her third question.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00Daphne, who topped the UK singles chart in 2012
0:11:00 > 0:11:03with the song Call Me Maybe?
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Oh, dear. I was reading this the other day.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15And I've forgotten it.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Carly Rae Jepsen.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23It's like a very short gestation period
0:11:23 > 0:11:29while she incubates the thought and out pops a fully-formed
0:11:29 > 0:11:31and correct answer -
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Carly Rae Jepsen.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Well done, Daphne.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39Apologies, James. Bad luck. Two out of three,
0:11:39 > 0:11:41but it wasn't good enough. No place for you in the final round.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Homed To Perfection, the quizzing not quite perfect yet,
0:11:48 > 0:11:51but getting there, edging in that direction.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54You've lost two brains from the final round
0:11:54 > 0:11:56and the Eggheads are all still there.
0:11:56 > 0:12:00Our third head-to-head, the subject is Film & Television.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Who'd like to play this? Film & TV.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Do you want to do this, Sharon, or do you want me to do it?
0:12:06 > 0:12:07I'll give it a go.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- Sharon.- Yeah.- Me.- All right, Sharon,
0:12:10 > 0:12:13and who would you like to choose from the Eggheads?
0:12:13 > 0:12:17Daphne and Barry have now played, so you have Pat, Chris or Dave.
0:12:17 > 0:12:22- I think you should go for Dave. - Dave?- I'll take on Dave.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25OK, Sharon and Dave, into the Question Room, please.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Sharon, would you like to go first or second?
0:12:29 > 0:12:31I'd like to go first, please.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36OK, Sharon going first on Film & Television
0:12:36 > 0:12:38and this is your first question.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42The actress Berenice Bejo played the female lead
0:12:42 > 0:12:45in which Oscar-winning 2011 film?
0:12:50 > 0:12:54I've seen Midnight In Paris and I don't remember her in there.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58The Iron Lady was about Margaret Thatcher
0:12:58 > 0:13:00and that was played by Meryl Streep.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04I know The Artist was a French film, so I'll pick The Artist.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08Yeah, good choice. It's the right answer.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10OK, The Artist there.
0:13:10 > 0:13:14Dave, The Wedding Party, Gourmet Night and The Germans are the titles
0:13:14 > 0:13:17of three episodes of which TV series?
0:13:21 > 0:13:26I'd love to see Starsky and Hutch do The Gourmet Night and The Germans!
0:13:26 > 0:13:28DAVE LAUGHS
0:13:28 > 0:13:31I can't see much of a wedding party in Blake's 7.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- We've got to go with the classic Fawlty Towers.- Fawlty Towers...
0:13:34 > 0:13:38It's the right answer, yes, Fawlty Towers.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Good start, Sharon. Second question.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44The opening credits of which TV drama series played out
0:13:44 > 0:13:47over film of a single swinging light bulb?
0:13:51 > 0:13:55It wasn't The Professionals because I used to watch that
0:13:55 > 0:13:58when it was on TV in the '70s or '80s.
0:13:59 > 0:14:03I haven't seen either Shoestring or Callan.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05It's a guess
0:14:05 > 0:14:08and I'll go for Shoestring.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12OK, got it down to 50/50, knew it wasn't The Professionals.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15It's not Shoestring though, so it is Callan.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Callan there with the swinging light bulb.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20OK...
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Dave, a chance for the lead.
0:14:22 > 0:14:27Who played the title role in the 1961 historical epic El Cid?
0:14:31 > 0:14:35Three Hollywood legends, sadly no longer with us.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40It's not Lee Marvin, it's not Tony Curtis.
0:14:40 > 0:14:44It tends to be when these big movies came around at that time...
0:14:44 > 0:14:49Or big films. I shouldn't say "movies". I'm British.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52When big films came at these times, the big-budget ones,
0:14:52 > 0:14:56Charlton Heston tended to be in the frame in that time period,
0:14:56 > 0:14:58so it's Charlton Heston.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00OK, the go-to man.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04If he wasn't racing his chariot, he was being El Cid.
0:15:04 > 0:15:10It's the right answer, Charlton Heston, and you have a lead.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Sharon, you need to get this.
0:15:11 > 0:15:17Who was the star of the early 1960s comedy show It's A Square World?
0:15:21 > 0:15:22I have absolutely no idea.
0:15:22 > 0:15:26I was born in 1970, so I missed out.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32I can't think that it would be Ronnie Corbett.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35I don't know who Michael Bentine is.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37David Frost...
0:15:37 > 0:15:43I only know him as a presenter, I think.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45I'm drawn to Michael Bentine,
0:15:45 > 0:15:49but the last one I was drawn to, Shoestring, was the wrong answer.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52But I'll still go with him, I think.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54OK, Michael Bentine...
0:15:54 > 0:15:57- It's the right answer.- Hey!
0:15:58 > 0:16:01Michael Bentine. Well done, Sharon.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04Well before your time, never saw it, but got him.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06You have to hope Dave doesn't get this.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Which actress plays Elizabeth Taylor
0:16:08 > 0:16:11in the 2012 film Liz & Dick?
0:16:17 > 0:16:21Right, well, Zooey Deschanel's New Girl,
0:16:21 > 0:16:24so I don't think she's got time to do that big production,
0:16:24 > 0:16:29although she's obviously moving on to big pictures.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31I don't think it's Greta Gerwig.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34I'm not entirely sure,
0:16:34 > 0:16:40but I do seem to remember a lot of publicity surrounding Lindsay Lohan
0:16:40 > 0:16:41on a movie project.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45It probably was Elizabeth Taylor, so I'll go Lindsay Lohan.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49OK, Lindsay Lohan in Liz & Dick as Elizabeth Taylor...
0:16:49 > 0:16:51- It's the right answer, Dave.- Is it?
0:16:51 > 0:16:54Yeah, you've taken the round, but only just,
0:16:54 > 0:16:56just squeezed out again...
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- It's how they fall sometimes. - Indeed.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Sharon, you won't be in the final round.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:17:04 > 0:17:05Bad luck, Sharon.
0:17:05 > 0:17:09Again knocking at that door here, but just not getting through.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13Homed To Perfection have now lost three brains from the final round
0:17:13 > 0:17:15and the Eggheads are unscathed.
0:17:15 > 0:17:20Let's see if that changes in our last head-to-head on History.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22So, two players available,
0:17:22 > 0:17:26- Lynn or Dave.- Dave?- Dave?
0:17:26 > 0:17:28- I think it's got to be Dave.- Dave.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30It looks like it's me.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34OK, Dave, and two players from the Eggheads available as well.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38- They are either Pat or Chris. - I think Pat, in my opinion.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41- Pat?- Yeah.- Yeah?
0:17:41 > 0:17:43- Go for Pat?- Yeah, we'll go for Pat.
0:17:43 > 0:17:48OK, let's have Dave and Pat into the Question Room, please.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Well, then, let's play Eggheads.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55OK, Dave, I know you like your factual books, don't you?
0:17:55 > 0:17:57You like history.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01- I certainly do, yes.- Any particular period you concentrate on?
0:18:01 > 0:18:02Second World War mainly.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05Let's hope some of those questions come up
0:18:05 > 0:18:07in the first or second set for you?
0:18:07 > 0:18:10As it hasn't been that successful in the first few games,
0:18:10 > 0:18:12I think I'll go second, please.
0:18:15 > 0:18:19Dave deciding to let Pat start, the Egghead, and Pat, here you go.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Which king appears at the very start of the Bayeux Tapestry?
0:18:27 > 0:18:32Which king appears at the very start of the Bayeux Tapestry?
0:18:32 > 0:18:37I think it was created shortly after the Battle of Hastings.
0:18:37 > 0:18:38That's my feeling, anyway.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41Henry I is some years later
0:18:41 > 0:18:43and William III is centuries later,
0:18:43 > 0:18:46so Edward the Confessor,
0:18:46 > 0:18:49who was in power in the early part of the 1000s,
0:18:49 > 0:18:52must be the best candidate there.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Willie, Willie, Harry, Steve.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57Henry I was the third king after the invasion.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59I'll go with Edward the Confessor.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Once you established the 11th century,
0:19:02 > 0:19:05it had to be Edward the Confessor. It's right, Pat.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07And over to you then, Dave.
0:19:07 > 0:19:11Your first question. Which of Henry VIII's wives
0:19:11 > 0:19:13was buried in Peterborough Abbey in 1536?
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Which of Henry VIII's wives was buried
0:19:21 > 0:19:24in Peterborough Abbey in 1536?
0:19:24 > 0:19:29I'll discount Nell Gwyn. She wasn't one of Henry VIII's wives.
0:19:29 > 0:19:33Out of the other two, it's a 50/50, unfortunately.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35I will go with...
0:19:36 > 0:19:37..Lady Jane Grey.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42OK, Lady Jane Grey...
0:19:42 > 0:19:46It's not, Dave, because the question could have been re-phrased -
0:19:46 > 0:19:49which of these was a wife of Henry VIII?
0:19:49 > 0:19:53The only one was Catherine of Aragon.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55A chance for Pat to go into a bigger lead.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Pat, at the end of the 1940s,
0:19:57 > 0:20:00following defeat during the Chinese Civil War,
0:20:00 > 0:20:04to where did Chiang Kai-shek and his Nationalists retreat?
0:20:08 > 0:20:14I think they all decamped en masse across the sea to Taiwan
0:20:14 > 0:20:18where Chiang Kai-shek ruled for decades, subsequently.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20So they went to Taiwan.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24Taiwan, which, of course, still rankles with the Chinese.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26It's still a source of tension.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29They used to blare propaganda at each other across the strait.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31OK, it is the right answer,
0:20:31 > 0:20:35Chiang Kai-shek and the Nationalists retreating there
0:20:35 > 0:20:38after the Chinese Civil War, Taiwan, so it's two-nil.
0:20:38 > 0:20:43Dave, you know what you've got to do. In 1833, workmen near Mold in North Wales
0:20:43 > 0:20:45discovered what precious item,
0:20:45 > 0:20:50believed to have been created between 1900 and 1600 BC?
0:20:55 > 0:21:00In 1833, workmen near Mold in North Wales discovered what precious item,
0:21:00 > 0:21:05believed to have been created between 1900 and 1600 BC?
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Unfortunately, I'm not too sure on this one,
0:21:08 > 0:21:11but I guess it's something made of gold!
0:21:11 > 0:21:14Very good. We'll give you that!
0:21:16 > 0:21:18I think looking at them,
0:21:18 > 0:21:21it's going to be a guess, unfortunately, again.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25I'll go straight down the middle - gold shoe.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27A gold shoe...
0:21:27 > 0:21:32A kind of prehistoric Cinderella type, you think, around.
0:21:32 > 0:21:37It's not a gold shoe. Of the other two, Pat, do you know?
0:21:37 > 0:21:41- I don't know. - Any ideas, just out of interest? No?
0:21:41 > 0:21:45- A parasol?- It's not a parasol. It's a gold cape.- Cape?
0:21:45 > 0:21:49A gold cape is the missing answer there, the one you didn't get,
0:21:49 > 0:21:52so the end of the round, I'm afraid, Dave,
0:21:52 > 0:21:54no place in the final round for you.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Would you both come back and join your teams?
0:21:57 > 0:22:00This is what we've been playing towards, the final round,
0:22:00 > 0:22:02which is General Knowledge.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05But those of you who lost your head-to-heads can't take part,
0:22:05 > 0:22:10so James, Craig, Sharon and Dave from Homed To Perfection,
0:22:10 > 0:22:14would you all leave the studio, please?
0:22:14 > 0:22:16So, Lynn, we didn't have a chance to chat,
0:22:16 > 0:22:19you didn't play one of the head-to-heads.
0:22:19 > 0:22:20Remember, this is a family show -
0:22:20 > 0:22:24what's this about you in a Miss Whippy competition?
0:22:24 > 0:22:27- It was an ice cream competition.- OK.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30It was a national company and the ice cream chap said to me,
0:22:30 > 0:22:32"You ought to send a photo in," so I did.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35I was one of the runners-up,
0:22:35 > 0:22:39but being 13, you feel like you're on top of the world.
0:22:39 > 0:22:40Did you get some free ice creams?
0:22:40 > 0:22:43I got a scarf and some free ice creams, yeah.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46Very nice. We're glad that's what it was.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51OK, Lynn, you're playing to win Homed To Perfection £13,000.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Dave, Daphne, Chris, Barry and Pat,
0:22:53 > 0:22:56you're playing for something which money can't buy -
0:22:56 > 0:22:58the Eggheads' reputation.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04This time, the questions are all General Knowledge.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08You're not allowed to avail yourself of this rule change
0:23:08 > 0:23:11in the final round - you are allowed to confer.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15So, Lynn, is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?
0:23:15 > 0:23:18Always the challengers' choice - do you want to go first or second?
0:23:18 > 0:23:20I think I'll go first.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27Good luck, Lynn. As we often say,
0:23:27 > 0:23:29it's often been done, the one against the five Eggheads.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31Let's see if you can do it.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35According to the nursery rhyme that starts, "Jack, be nimble,"
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Jack jumps over the what?
0:23:41 > 0:23:44According to the nursery rhyme that starts, "Jack, be nimble,"
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Jack jumps over the what?
0:23:46 > 0:23:50I know it's not grandfather clock or bedpost,
0:23:50 > 0:23:52so therefore it's the candlestick.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56"Jack, be nimble, Jack, be quick," and he jumps over the candlestick.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58It's the right answer.
0:23:58 > 0:24:03What part of someone's anatomy is normally the focus of a mugshot?
0:24:05 > 0:24:09What part of someone's anatomy is normally the focus of a mugshot?
0:24:09 > 0:24:13Stand you up against a white wall and take a photograph of your face.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Face, OK. Not the backside?
0:24:16 > 0:24:20They did try it occasionally but, no, it's your face.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24I'm sure they might have done. Face is the correct answer.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Back to you, Lynn.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28Which member of the Royal Family
0:24:28 > 0:24:31completed the London Marathon in 2010?
0:24:34 > 0:24:37Which member of the Royal Family
0:24:37 > 0:24:39completed the London Marathon in 2010?
0:24:39 > 0:24:44OK, I don't think it was Prince William
0:24:44 > 0:24:47and I don't think it was Prince Edward.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51I'm pretty sure it was Princess Beatrice, so I'll go for that one.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Princess Beatrice, you're pretty sure.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56You can be certain now - it's the right answer. Well done, Lynn.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- Thank you.- You've got two.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01Eggheads, for how long did Sputnik 1,
0:25:01 > 0:25:05the world's first artificial satellite, orbit the Earth?
0:25:08 > 0:25:10For how long did Sputnik 1,
0:25:10 > 0:25:13the world's first artificial satellite, orbit the Earth?
0:25:13 > 0:25:15It was longer than three days.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18The Yanks were tracking it, as was Jodrell Bank.
0:25:18 > 0:25:23It was a low orbit, so it wouldn't have been up there for three years.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26It's got to be three months. Three months, Dermot.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30OK, and the right answer emerging. It's correct, three months.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Lynn, doing really well here.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Are you calm, enjoying yourself?
0:25:34 > 0:25:36Enjoying myself.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38- Good.- Calm? I don't know.- OK.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42Let's see if you can get this on the board and challenge for that money.
0:25:42 > 0:25:48Vinnie Jones ended his club football career in the 1998-99 season
0:25:48 > 0:25:50as player-coach of which team?
0:25:55 > 0:26:00Vinnie Jones ended his club football career in the 1998-99 season
0:26:00 > 0:26:02as player-coach of which team?
0:26:02 > 0:26:05OK, I know nothing about football whatsoever.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11I remember seeing him in a blue shirt as a player, I'm sure,
0:26:11 > 0:26:16but I ain't got a clue, apart from Chelsea, who plays in blue.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19I'm going to knock out Wolverhampton Wanderers...
0:26:20 > 0:26:26..and I think I'm going to knock out Queens Park Rangers.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28So...
0:26:30 > 0:26:34I'd usually go for the one I think it's not, if that makes sense.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36I'm going to go for...
0:26:38 > 0:26:39Player-coach.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43..Chelsea.
0:26:43 > 0:26:47- Chelsea... You say you don't know anything about football.- I don't.
0:26:47 > 0:26:51Having a guess, a one-in-three chance, but you haven't landed it.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53No, Lynn. Do you know, Eggheads?
0:26:53 > 0:26:57- Queens Park Rangers. - Queens Park Rangers.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59The Eggheads have a chance here,
0:26:59 > 0:27:02but if they don't get it, we go to Sudden Death.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06Which US writer had great success in the early 1920s
0:27:06 > 0:27:09with novels called Main Street and Babbitt?
0:27:13 > 0:27:17Which US writer had great success in the early 1920s
0:27:17 > 0:27:21with novels called Main Street and Babbitt?
0:27:21 > 0:27:24It wasn't Thornton Wilder and it wasn't Ernest Hemingway.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26It was Sinclair Lewis.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Sinclair Lewis, you think?
0:27:28 > 0:27:33I think you know. It's the right answer, Eggheads. You've won.
0:27:39 > 0:27:43Bad luck, Lynn. Just got that football question coming up.
0:27:43 > 0:27:47If things had gone your team's way in some of those head-to-heads,
0:27:47 > 0:27:49you might have had someone else there
0:27:49 > 0:27:52who might have known a bit more about football than you,
0:27:52 > 0:27:54but you got two there all on your own.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56In a couple of those head-to-heads,
0:27:56 > 0:28:00you kept getting those first two right and not getting the third one
0:28:00 > 0:28:02and failing at the last hurdle,
0:28:02 > 0:28:06- but I hope you've all enjoyed yourselves.- We have. Had a good day.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09Had a good laugh. It's been great.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12At them! No, with them, of course. Thank you, Lynn.
0:28:12 > 0:28:17Thanks to all of Homed To Perfection for playing the Eggheads today,
0:28:17 > 0:28:19but they have done what comes naturally to them
0:28:19 > 0:28:21and their winning streak continues.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24I'm afraid you won't be going home with that £13,000 -
0:28:24 > 0:28:26that means the money rolls over to the next show.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30Eggheads, congratulations. Who will beat you?
0:28:30 > 0:28:32Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:32 > 0:28:35have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38£14,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
