0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:14Together 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?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:31pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33They are the Eggheads.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36And taking on our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:36 > 0:00:40are The Business Men. This team of friends and colleagues
0:00:40 > 0:00:44get together each week at a meeting to discuss current projects
0:00:44 > 0:00:47and to help one another find more work. Let's meet them.
0:00:47 > 0:00:52Hi, I'm Gary, I'm 47 and I'm an internet marketing consultant.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm Mark, I'm 52. I'm a decorator.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hi, I'm Mark, I'm 61 and I'm a kitchen designer.
0:00:58 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Tony, I'm 59 and I'm a fund-raising and volunteer co-ordinator.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Hi, I'm Stuart, I'm 57 and I run a printing business.
0:01:07 > 0:01:12- Gary and team, welcome.- Thank you. - Where do you actually meet when you see each other?
0:01:12 > 0:01:16We meet in a hotel in Altrincham which we have an arrangement with.
0:01:16 > 0:01:23We meet for breakfast and we try and help and support each other in getting business for each other.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Any quizzing go on at all when you're in this room?
0:01:27 > 0:01:32Not a huge amount, no. There's all kinds of antics, but very rarely quizzing.
0:01:32 > 0:01:38- You've come together for the Eggheads?- Yes.- Is there an Eggheads fan here?- Very much so, yeah.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42- Really?- An avid fan, yes.- OK, so you've got some strategy worked out.
0:01:42 > 0:01:47- We have.- Will you at some point break for a breakfast meeting if it starts to go wrong?
0:01:47 > 0:01:51- It won't go wrong. We're going to win.- That's what we like to hear.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55Every day, there is £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:55 > 0:02:00If they fail to defeat the Eggheads, the prize money rolls over.
0:02:00 > 0:02:06So, Business Men, the Eggheads have been rather successful for the last 40 games. They've won them all,
0:02:06 > 0:02:10which means £41,000 is the jackpot today.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15- So it's been worth coming. Would you like to start?- Absolutely.
0:02:15 > 0:02:20The first head-to-head battle is on Sport. Who would like Sport?
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Got to be the sports man.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24I think we already decided that.
0:02:24 > 0:02:30- That'll be me, Jeremy. - OK, Mark. Against which Egghead? Which one would you like to take on?
0:02:30 > 0:02:32I'm afraid it's got to be Judith.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34She's...
0:02:34 > 0:02:40We had a period where you weren't doing... Now, what's happened here? I told you not to...
0:02:40 > 0:02:44She's been leaning back when Sport comes up and that wasn't working.
0:02:44 > 0:02:50I know, but the angle's wrong here. It works when you're down there. I can hide.
0:02:51 > 0:02:56- But not up here. - Good luck to you, Mark, on Sport against Judith from the Eggheads.
0:02:56 > 0:03:02To ensure there's no conferring, would you take your positions in the question room?
0:03:02 > 0:03:07What is it about Sport, Judith? Why is it that this particular category upsets you so much?
0:03:07 > 0:03:11- Upsets me?- Well, you...you... - I hate losing.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15- When you start to be so upset about playing, you know...- I hate losing.
0:03:15 > 0:03:20In Sport, of the last seven, I've just checked and you've won five.
0:03:20 > 0:03:27- Yes, I know.- And that's up against people who have played in football teams, whose hobbies are cricket,
0:03:27 > 0:03:29who spend the weekends watching TV.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33- You're beating people who love sport.- I've been incredibly lucky.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37There's a lot of luck involved in it. I've been very lucky lately.
0:03:37 > 0:03:42I don't particularly enjoy doing it because it's not something I love,
0:03:42 > 0:03:45whereas there are other subjects I do love.
0:03:45 > 0:03:50You've already wrong-footed the Eggheads and you haven't even started yet. How about that?
0:03:50 > 0:03:54I'm afraid that Judith was perhaps a given with Sport, but there you go.
0:03:54 > 0:03:59It's a hobby and a passion of mine, but that's where you get the questions wrong, I suppose.
0:03:59 > 0:04:04- It often happens that way. Do you want the first or second set? - First set, please.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Here is your first question, Mark.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14What colour is traditionally worn by competitive fencers?
0:04:16 > 0:04:21I'm just trying to get a picture of a fencing contest perhaps.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24I don't remember seeing them in blue
0:04:24 > 0:04:27and I don't remember seeing them in red,
0:04:27 > 0:04:31but I have a vision of them being in white, so I'll take "white".
0:04:31 > 0:04:35White is the correct answer. Well done.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Judith, here is your question.
0:04:37 > 0:04:42Which controversial footballer, whose antics have included driving into a women's prison
0:04:42 > 0:04:48and setting off fireworks in his house, wore a shirt with the slogan, "Why always me?"
0:04:53 > 0:04:57I think it's that complete lunatic who has now left these shores...
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Mario Balotelli.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04You do know your sport. Mario Balotelli is the right answer.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08- You can't really miss him, can you? - Over to you, Mark.
0:05:08 > 0:05:15At the 2012 Olympics, the men's world record for which event was set at 1 minute, 40.91 seconds?
0:05:23 > 0:05:25I'm not absolutely sure about this,
0:05:25 > 0:05:27but working it backwards
0:05:27 > 0:05:32from perhaps thinking about a mile...
0:05:32 > 0:05:36Though I'm not completely sure, I don't think it's 1500 metres.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38And I don't think it's 400 metres.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42I'll go in the middle, middle for diddle - 800 metres.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45800 metres is correct. Well played.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Judith, here's your question.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50In September 2012, it was announced
0:05:50 > 0:05:55that Lewis Hamilton would be driving for which Formula One team for the 2013 season?
0:05:57 > 0:06:03Oh, that, he swapped to Mercedes and had a bit of trouble with the car.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Mercedes is correct.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Your third question, Mark.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10Which sport is played by the Edinburgh Capitals?
0:06:17 > 0:06:20I used to watch ice hockey in Manchester
0:06:20 > 0:06:25and I don't remember a team called Edinburgh Capitals.
0:06:27 > 0:06:32I can't imagine, in Scotland, being cricket, so I'll go with basketball.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36- Do you know this one, Judith?- No, but I would have gone for basketball.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38It's wrong. It's ice hockey, Mark.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40It's funny. You used to watch that?
0:06:40 > 0:06:45I did indeed when Manchester Storm had a team in the Arena.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47It was very popular and I was a big fan.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50OK, so you've got two out of three.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54Let's see if Judith can take this round. Here we go.
0:06:54 > 0:06:59Brian McDermott became head coach of which Super League team in 2011?
0:07:03 > 0:07:06That, I really don't know. What's he called?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Brian McDermott.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13I just don't know. I rather like the name Leeds Rhinos.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15It's such an extraordinary name.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19Leeds Rhinos. That's just a complete and utter guess.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- Just going down the right?- Hmm.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24- Do you know this one, Mark?- No. - Any Eggheads know?
0:07:24 > 0:07:29- Yes, she's right.- Leeds Rhinos, it is. You've triumphed on Sport.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33Why you have this feeling of a jinx with it, I have no idea.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35That's six games out of eight now.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40It's extraordinary. It's very lucky because I really didn't know that.
0:07:40 > 0:07:46Leeds Rhinos has got you into the final. Mark, you've been knocked out. Please rejoin your team-mates.
0:07:47 > 0:07:53As it stands, The Business Men have lost one brain from the final round. The Eggheads have not lost any.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57Judith remains in and the next subject is Film & Television.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Who would like Film & TV?
0:08:00 > 0:08:05- It could be Gary.- It could be you. - It could be Gary. It's looking like Gary.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07- Do you want to do it?- No, you, Gary.
0:08:07 > 0:08:13- Gary?- That'll be me, Jeremy. - All right. Before you go, just tell us which Egghead you'd like.
0:08:13 > 0:08:19- Pat, please.- So it is Gary from The Business Men versus Pat, Film & Television.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Here we go. Do take your positions.
0:08:21 > 0:08:27- Film & TV. Do you want to go first or second, Gary? - I'd like to go first, please.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32Here we go with your first question.
0:08:32 > 0:08:38Which television partnership encouraged their viewers to shout "bogies" in public places?
0:08:41 > 0:08:44Crumbs! Right, I don't know the answer.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47I would guess that it wouldn't be Richard and Judy.
0:08:47 > 0:08:52I'm going to take a guess and say Dick and Dom.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Dick and Dom is correct, yeah.
0:08:56 > 0:09:01As you said, I can't imagine Richard and Judy recommending that people shout "bogies".
0:09:01 > 0:09:06Pat, "such fun" is the catchphrase of a character in which TV comedy?
0:09:11 > 0:09:15I'm not sure there's any fun in The Office. It's not that sort of place.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17One Foot In The Grave...
0:09:17 > 0:09:21I think it's the faintly Enid Blytony sort of expression
0:09:21 > 0:09:24that comes up in Miranda.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28With Miranda Hart, you're quite right. Miranda is the answer.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30OK, back to you then, Gary.
0:09:30 > 0:09:36Snoop Dogg and Dr Dre both feature in which film starring Denzel Washington?
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Again, I don't know the answer to this one.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48I think I've seen American Gangster and Training Day.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51I don't think I've seen Crimson Tide.
0:09:55 > 0:10:00I've got an inkling because I haven't seen Crimson Tide
0:10:00 > 0:10:04that probably it's going to be Crimson Tide. That's my answer.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06Pat, do you know the answer here?
0:10:06 > 0:10:09I'd have been tempted by American Gangster,
0:10:09 > 0:10:14but Training Day does have lots of hard-nosed LA locations.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17I'm not sure. I'd pick between one of the other two.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21Training Day is the right answer, Gary. Sorry about that.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Pat has a chance to take the lead.
0:10:23 > 0:10:31Noel Shempsky, Kenny Daly and Bulldog Briscoe were supporting characters in which US comedy?
0:10:35 > 0:10:38Well, Bulldog Briscoe rings a bell.
0:10:38 > 0:10:44There was a larger-than-life, sexist character in Frasier called Bulldog.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48That's an argument in favour of Frasier.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52I've watched quite a bit of Seinfeld and the names don't ring a bell.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54I haven't seen very much of Taxi.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58I think on the basis of Bulldog the sexist, I'll go for Frasier.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02Frasier is correct. He's playing a good game, Gary.
0:11:02 > 0:11:07- He always does. You need to get this one right if you are to stay in.- OK.
0:11:07 > 0:11:12The village of Glendarroch was the fictional setting for which television drama?
0:11:16 > 0:11:20I guess they're probably more sort of...
0:11:20 > 0:11:24I think Take The High Road was more of a daytime TV-type thing...
0:11:25 > 0:11:28And yet somehow it does ring a bell.
0:11:28 > 0:11:33I instantly think I'm drawn to Take The High Road, so that's my answer.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Well done. You're correct.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Well done.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42I thought you were about to rule it out and you came back to it.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Even so, Pat can take the round if he gets this one right.
0:11:45 > 0:11:52When the 1958 film Gigi won nine Oscars, it beat the record previously set by which film?
0:11:55 > 0:11:58All those films are before 1958,
0:11:58 > 0:12:02so there's no ruling them out on that basis.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Casablanca has become an absolutely iconic film.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09It certainly brought an Oscar for the director Michael Curtiz.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12I don't quite see how it could have got enough Oscars
0:12:12 > 0:12:14to be the answer to this question.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18And The Wizard Of Oz, the same argument holds.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21I think I'm going to have to go with the juggernaut
0:12:21 > 0:12:23that was Gone With The Wind.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26Gone With The Wind is the correct answer. Well done.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28You are in the final.
0:12:28 > 0:12:33He played well. It's always that one wrong answer that causes the trouble.
0:12:33 > 0:12:38You were beaten by our Egghead and you can't help your team in the final round.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42Please, both of you, return to us. Rejoin your team-mates.
0:12:42 > 0:12:47As it stands, The Business Men have lost two brains from the final round.
0:12:47 > 0:12:53The Eggheads have not lost any. No-one has been dislodged here. The next subject is Arts & Books.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Who would like this?
0:12:55 > 0:12:59Who have we got left? It's either Stuart or you.
0:12:59 > 0:13:03- It's looking like you, Mark. - I really don't want Arts & Books.
0:13:03 > 0:13:09- Stuart?- If I have to, I will. - Captain's decision, I think. - But it's not my top subject.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11- Pick one, Captain.- Um...
0:13:12 > 0:13:19- Would you take it on? - I am the sacrificial lamb. - OK, Mark. Against which Egghead?
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- Go on, Dave. Dave, it's you and me. - All right.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27- Near neighbours, I'm assuming? - Definitely. Manchester man. Looking forward to this one.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Mark from The Business Men versus Dave from the Eggheads.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:13:34 > 0:13:39Mark, I know that the arts are your speciality because we've met through them.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Jeremy, you're being very unkind there.
0:13:42 > 0:13:46I rang your show once upon a decade ago and commented on The Scream
0:13:46 > 0:13:50because for some reason, it just winds me up the wrong way.
0:13:50 > 0:13:55I think I said I wouldn't hang it in my toilet, so that sums up my knowledge of art.
0:13:55 > 0:14:01- The famous painting by Edvard Munch which went for 120 million?- Yeah. I'd have given 120 pence for it.
0:14:01 > 0:14:08I do remember the conversation. Wouldn't it be incredible if that painting comes up in the questions?
0:14:08 > 0:14:11As long as I get the question, it'll be fine.
0:14:11 > 0:14:16- So, Arts & Books, Mark, would you like to go first or second?- I'll go second.
0:14:19 > 0:14:24Here we go with your first question, Tremendous Knowledge Dave.
0:14:24 > 0:14:29South-east Asia and which country are the main settings for Nevil Shute's novel, A Town Like Alice?
0:14:33 > 0:14:35I believe it's Australia.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38Australia is the right answer.
0:14:40 > 0:14:45Mark, in the plays of Shakespeare, which character is given the title Thane of Cawdor?
0:14:48 > 0:14:52Regrettably, Shakespeare was never one of my strong suits.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Let's go for Hamlet.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Team-mates?
0:14:58 > 0:15:03- We think it's Macbeth.- Yeah, they disagree. It's Macbeth, Mark.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Becomes Thane of Cawdor.
0:15:05 > 0:15:11OK, Dave, the stained-glass windows Coronation Of The Virgin,
0:15:11 > 0:15:14designed by Donatello,
0:15:14 > 0:15:19and Resurrection Of Christ by Uccello are in which cathedral?
0:15:22 > 0:15:24I would...
0:15:24 > 0:15:28I don't know the answer particularly,
0:15:28 > 0:15:31but I would hazard it's Florence.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34Florence is the right answer.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Mark, your question.
0:15:36 > 0:15:43Which author created the character Sir Fretful Plagiary who figures in the play The Critic?
0:15:49 > 0:15:53I really have been the sacrificial lamb on this one, Jeremy.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57Let's go for Oscar Wilde.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00No. And actually you needed to get that right as well.
0:16:00 > 0:16:05It's not Wilde or Hare who's more up to date. It's Sheridan.
0:16:05 > 0:16:10And because Dave got his first two, he has knocked you out there, Mark.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12He will be in the final. You won't.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Please, both of you, return and join your teams.
0:16:16 > 0:16:21As it stands, The Business Men have lost three brains from the final round.
0:16:21 > 0:16:27The Eggheads are still strutting their stuff over here. How annoying! The next subject is Science.
0:16:27 > 0:16:32- We need someone to take down an Egghead.- It's one of your subjects.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- Who are we going to have? - Stuart against Kevin or Daphne?
0:16:35 > 0:16:40- We'll go for Daphne. - Stuart from The Business Men versus Daphne from the Eggheads.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44To ensure there's no conferring, please take your positions.
0:16:44 > 0:16:49So we are doing Science. Stuart, you can choose to go first or second.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53We've had no luck either way, so I'll go back to going first, please.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Here we go with your first question.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03Which of these is a common name for a group of fish able to breathe air?
0:17:09 > 0:17:12I wouldn't go with heartfish, I don't think.
0:17:12 > 0:17:17Chestfish sounds a bit off the wall. I'll go for lungfish, I think.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20Absolutely right. Lungfish, it is. Well done.
0:17:22 > 0:17:28Daphne, your question. Which word is used to describe substances that absorb moisture from the atmosphere?
0:17:33 > 0:17:39Well, moisture is "hygro", so it's hygroscopic.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Hygroscopic is correct.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43OK, Stuart...
0:17:43 > 0:17:50Dendrite, plate and rosette are classifications of which common meteorological phenomenon?
0:17:54 > 0:17:57It doesn't sound like clouds.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Do snowflakes have classifications?
0:18:01 > 0:18:06I know they all have the same shape. I'm going to go for hurricanes.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09- Is he right, Daphne? - I'd have gone for snowflakes.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12It is snowflakes.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Stuart, it's snowflakes.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Daphne has a chance to pull ahead.
0:18:16 > 0:18:24In 2012, the UK banned the import of which tree due to the threat of a deadly fungus, Chalara fraxinea?
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Yes, that was the ash.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34Ash is the right answer. What is the disease called?
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Oh, ash dieback.
0:18:36 > 0:18:41Yeah, that's right and it's already lodged, apparently, in this country.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44I hope it won't kill them all.
0:18:44 > 0:18:49So, Stuart, speaking of which, don't die off now. You've got to get this one right to stay in.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53Proxima Centauri, the nearest known star to our sun,
0:18:53 > 0:18:57is approximately how many light years away?
0:19:03 > 0:19:05I've no idea.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07The figure that's coming out to me is 4.2,
0:19:07 > 0:19:11but I don't know if that is something in the back of my mind.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15I'm going to go with what I first thought - 4.2.
0:19:15 > 0:19:194.2 is correct. Well done. Let's see if Daphne can get this right.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23If she can, she's in the final. If not, we go to Sudden Death.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26Which French scientist died in 1907,
0:19:26 > 0:19:32shortly after receiving the Nobel Chemistry Prize for his work on the element fluorine?
0:19:39 > 0:19:42I've not heard of it. Sorry.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47Henri Moissan.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51- She's right, Eggheads, isn't she? - Am I?- You are right.
0:19:51 > 0:19:56- It's Henri Moissan.- I'm sorry. - It's not an inkling, it's an inkle.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00Yet again the Smiling Assassin takes out a challenger. Sorry, Stuart.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04- She's done it again.- It can't be helped.- You're not in the final.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08If you come back to us, we will play that final for a lot of money.
0:20:08 > 0:20:14This is what we've been playing towards - the final round which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18But those of you who lost your head-to-heads can't take part
0:20:18 > 0:20:24in this round, so Gary, Mark H, Mark S and Stuart from The Business Men,
0:20:24 > 0:20:27would you all please leave the studio?
0:20:27 > 0:20:33Good luck, Tony. I know this is not quite how it was meant to pan out with those four sitting behind you.
0:20:33 > 0:20:39- But it would be a good story for your next business breakfast. That's for sure.- I hope it's a good story.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42You're playing to win The Business Men £41,000.
0:20:42 > 0:20:48Pat, Judith, Kevin, Dave and Daphne, you are playing for something that money can't buy -
0:20:48 > 0:20:50the Eggheads' reputation.
0:20:50 > 0:20:55I'll ask each team three questions in turn. This time, they are all General Knowledge.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58You are allowed to confer. "Who with?" you ask.
0:20:58 > 0:21:04So, Tony, the question is - is your one brain able to overcome the Eggheads' five?
0:21:04 > 0:21:08I know they look intimidating, but they can crack and wobble for sure.
0:21:08 > 0:21:14- They've not cracked today. - It may be coming. Would you like to go first or second?- First, please.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21First question.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Gangnam is a district of which city?
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Well, I know it's been in the news quite a lot.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36And I'm fairly certain it's not New Delhi.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39I have a feeling that, um...
0:21:40 > 0:21:46..the actual artist who sang in the video was Korean,
0:21:46 > 0:21:48so that would make it Seoul.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51Seoul is correct. Well done.
0:21:51 > 0:21:52Eggheads, your first question.
0:21:52 > 0:21:58Which character from European legend was King of the Scandinavian people known as the Geats?
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Happy with Beowulf?
0:22:03 > 0:22:06- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:22:06 > 0:22:11The... Well, King Alfred was our own dear King,
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Finn McCool was in Ireland,
0:22:13 > 0:22:18but the King of the Geats in what's now Denmark, Sweden was Beowulf.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22Beowulf is correct. Maybe it was never going to be that easy.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26The first question was always going to be a banker for them.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Hang on in there.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30You can take them down.
0:22:30 > 0:22:38In the USA, light amber, medium amber and dark amber are classifications of which foodstuff?
0:22:43 > 0:22:46I don't think it's marmalade.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51I think that's more of an English...preserve.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58I know molasses is very popular in North America.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02But I've got a feeling it's maple syrup.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06- Is he right, Eggheads?- Yes.
0:23:06 > 0:23:10- I think he's right, yes. - Pat?- I'd say he's right.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Yeah, maple syrup, it is.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16Assured play. Two out of two. Quite excited backstage now!
0:23:16 > 0:23:23Sometimes it's good not to have somebody else there to disagree with you. Well done.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27In mythology, who was the twin brother of the prophetess Cassandra?
0:23:31 > 0:23:34- Helenus?- I would guess Helenus, yeah.
0:23:34 > 0:23:38- It's not Tantalus.- It's not Tantalus and it's not Remus.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40OK? Happy with Helenus?
0:23:40 > 0:23:45He was the one who... All his prophecies they believed.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47As opposed to Cassandra's, yeah.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52We believe this is Helenus.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Helenus is the right answer.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56OK, two each.
0:23:56 > 0:24:01I'm feeling some tension here. £41,000 up for grabs.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04Get this one right and your work on Earth is done.
0:24:04 > 0:24:09All they have to do is hopefully get the next one wrong and that's it.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Take your time here, Tony. Third question.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16Which Disney film features the song I'll Make A Man Out Of You?
0:24:20 > 0:24:22Take your time.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24I'm fairly certain it isn't Dumbo.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31I think it's quite a recent song, that.
0:24:31 > 0:24:36Fantasia is quite an old, um...cartoon.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41And so I would guess it's Mulan.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Mulan is your answer. Not a film I've seen, I must say.
0:24:45 > 0:24:50Dumbo would have been tempting, but then it would have been an elephant.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52- Hmm.- Mulan is correct.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56You're playing brilliantly.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01This is really interesting. You had a rough old time in this game, your team.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05Left with one player and playing in a very, very sure-footed way.
0:25:05 > 0:25:11So, Eggheads, if you get this one wrong, they have won £41,000. You don't need to do any more.
0:25:11 > 0:25:17If you get it right, we go to Sudden Death. Here is your question, Eggheads.
0:25:17 > 0:25:22The Worboys Committee was formed by the British government in 1963
0:25:22 > 0:25:27to review what aspect of the country's road transport network?
0:25:34 > 0:25:38- When did the motorways come in? When was the Preston By-pass?- 1958.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42- So motorways have started by then. - Yeah.- Road signs?
0:25:42 > 0:25:46On motorways, they didn't have any speed limits at the beginning.
0:25:46 > 0:25:51Was there petrol rationing then? There were speed limits then.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54Is road signage a big enough thing
0:25:54 > 0:25:57for the government to set up an inquiry about?
0:25:57 > 0:25:59It's just business. It's basic...
0:25:59 > 0:26:04When did the... When did the 70 miles per hour speed limit come in?
0:26:04 > 0:26:08Was that the '70s or was it earlier?
0:26:08 > 0:26:12- I was thinking it was earlier. - About 1965?- Yeah.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15So it could be '65, couldn't it?
0:26:15 > 0:26:17That would fit, wouldn't it?
0:26:17 > 0:26:20Road signs don't seem big enough. But speed...
0:26:20 > 0:26:24As you're saying there, if you've got... I was thinking...
0:26:24 > 0:26:27- If I'm right... - With the date?- 1965...
0:26:27 > 0:26:30- That's the 70 mile an hour limit? - Yeah.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33- IF I'm right. - '63 would be about right.
0:26:33 > 0:26:38- It would be about right. I think... - Speed limits?- Speed limits?
0:26:38 > 0:26:42- Go with it and hang the consequences. - It's the most logical.- Yeah.
0:26:43 > 0:26:47We've actually no idea in terms of factual knowledge,
0:26:47 > 0:26:52but we think the most logical of the three is speed limits.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Speed limits is your answer.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59You know if you've got this one wrong,
0:26:59 > 0:27:03the jackpot is won by our challengers - £41,000.
0:27:04 > 0:27:09Eggheads, if you were navigating, I wouldn't want to be in the car.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11The answer is "road signs".
0:27:11 > 0:27:15We say congratulations, challengers. You have won!
0:27:20 > 0:27:23Oh, wow!
0:27:23 > 0:27:29- You played so well though.- I just don't believe it.- That's the joy of this game. I did keep saying.
0:27:29 > 0:27:36You can get down to one and still win. Do I ask what you'll do with the money? Too early?
0:27:36 > 0:27:40Too early. We've not even thought about that. Totally unexpected.
0:27:40 > 0:27:46- They're certainly in business now! - At those breakfasts, there's going to be double servings of bacon!
0:27:46 > 0:27:50- I think my charity will see a bit as well.- Tell us about your charity.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53My charity is the Trafford Carers Centre.
0:27:53 > 0:27:59We support people caring for family members. They're all unpaid carers in the Trafford area.
0:27:59 > 0:28:04We provide services like counselling, therapy services to carers
0:28:04 > 0:28:08to enable them to get a break from the caring role.
0:28:08 > 0:28:14If people mention charities at the start, they've got a bit of guilt about playing against the charity,
0:28:14 > 0:28:18so to bring it in at the end now that you've won, it feels good.
0:28:18 > 0:28:22- Yes.- Thank you for playing as well. Well done, Business Men.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24You have just won £41,000.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27You are officially cleverer than the Eggheads.
0:28:27 > 0:28:34They can be beaten. You've had a very, very good run, Eggheads, but all runs come to an end.
0:28:34 > 0:28:40Join us next time to see if a new team of challengers will be just as successful. Until then, goodbye.
