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

0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,

0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

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

0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome 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 > 0:00:35And taking on our awesome quiz champions today

0:00:35 > 0:00:38are We Cannot Be Serious.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40This team of friends all play tennis together

0:00:40 > 0:00:42at the same club in Warwick.

0:00:42 > 0:00:43Let's meet them.

0:00:43 > 0:00:47Hi, I'm Ian. I'm 51, and I'm an accountant.

0:00:47 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Karen. I'm 46, and I work in a primary school office.

0:00:51 > 0:00:55Hi, I'm Carlo. I'm 55, and I'm a maths teacher.

0:00:55 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Pat. I'm 65 and I'm a retired personal assistant.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Robin. I'm 49, and I train care staff.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Well, welcome to you, We Cannot Be Serious.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09So, you're all John McEnroe fans then, are you?

0:01:09 > 0:01:10Yeah, and Andy Murray fans, of course.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12Oh, of course. Of course.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15So, do you like to play singles, doubles or how does it go?

0:01:15 > 0:01:19We mostly play doubles, really, at our club.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21One or two singles enthusiasts, me and Robin, perhaps.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24OK, well, it'll be tennis after we play the quiz.

0:01:24 > 0:01:25You against the Eggheads.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28Wonder who'll win that one. Well, let's see who'll win this one.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32Every day there's £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our Challengers.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:01:34 > 0:01:36the prize money rolls over to the next show.

0:01:36 > 0:01:37So, We Cannot Be Serious,

0:01:37 > 0:01:39the Eggheads have won the last three games.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43That means £4,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads today.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45OK, let's play then.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47I suspect you're hoping for Sport at some stage

0:01:47 > 0:01:50but the first round is Politics.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Who'd like to take this one on?

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Politics. What do you think, team?

0:01:55 > 0:01:56- I think Karen.- Karen?- Yeah?

0:01:56 > 0:01:58Karen's our budding politician.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03It's gone to the vote, and we've voted Karen.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05OK, did you have any say in that, Karen?

0:02:05 > 0:02:06Not really, no.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09All right, choose any Egghead you like, it's the opening round.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12- Take on Pat.- Pat? OK.

0:02:12 > 0:02:13OK, we'll take Pat.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15OK, very relaxed about it all, Karen.

0:02:15 > 0:02:16Anyone will do. Have Pat then.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20OK, Karen and Pat playing the first round. It's Politics.

0:02:20 > 0:02:21To ensure there's no conferring

0:02:21 > 0:02:23would you please go to the Question Room?

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Karen, this is Politics. Would you like to go first or second?

0:02:27 > 0:02:29I'd like to go first, please.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35OK, first question to you then, Karen, and good luck.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38The Family Allowance, introduced in 1946,

0:02:38 > 0:02:41was replaced in the late 1970s by what?

0:02:45 > 0:02:49OK, as a mother of four children, I think

0:02:49 > 0:02:52the answer is probably going to be Child Benefit.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Yeah, I just think you might know that one.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56It is the right answer, well done.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01Pat, what name is used to refer to the group of European

0:03:01 > 0:03:06countries that have adopted the euro as their national currency?

0:03:10 > 0:03:13I think that's the Eurozone.

0:03:13 > 0:03:17- You think?- Well, I'm confident, Dermot. What can I say?

0:03:17 > 0:03:19It is the right answer. The Eurozone.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21OK, Karen. In the mid-19th century,

0:03:21 > 0:03:26the Clear Grits was a political movement in which country?

0:03:29 > 0:03:32I don't think it's Australia.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35Really don't know, but I'm going to go for Canada.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38Really don't know, but some kind of, I don't know, feeling for it

0:03:38 > 0:03:40because you've got the right answer.

0:03:43 > 0:03:49Pat, Hassan Rouhani became president of which country in 2013?

0:03:51 > 0:03:56I think this man is viewed as a moderate, but in the context of Iran,

0:03:56 > 0:04:01moderate, hmm... I don't think he's actually a liberal, but it's Iran.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04Iran is the right answer, Pat.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06It's all square at two-all. Karen,

0:04:06 > 0:04:11which of these is a name given to a set of proposed conditions

0:04:11 > 0:04:12under which a monarch may refuse

0:04:12 > 0:04:15a request from the Prime Minister to dissolve Parliament?

0:04:22 > 0:04:26Wow. Erm, I haven't heard of any of these.

0:04:27 > 0:04:31I'm going to go for Franklin Principles.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33OK, Franklin Principles.

0:04:33 > 0:04:36Hadn't heard of the Clear Grits and got that,

0:04:36 > 0:04:37but you haven't got the principles.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39It's the Lascelles Principles.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41Pat, you've got a chance here.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44Which former Prime Minister famously intervened in the historic

0:04:44 > 0:04:47Norway debate in the House of Commons in May, 1940,

0:04:47 > 0:04:50contributing to the resignation of Neville Chamberlain?

0:04:54 > 0:04:58Well... I haven't heard of this, so I think they could all have

0:04:58 > 0:05:02taken exception to Chamberlain's Munich agreement and all that.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05I'll go for Stanley Baldwin in the hope that

0:05:05 > 0:05:08he was still active and vocal.

0:05:08 > 0:05:13No, it was the man with leadership during wartime himself experience,

0:05:13 > 0:05:15David Lloyd George.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17Right, it's good news for you, Karen, it's all square.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20The tiny little bit of bad news is that

0:05:20 > 0:05:23if you do need to guess, it's going to be an awful lot harder because

0:05:23 > 0:05:28as you know, by question four we remove the options

0:05:28 > 0:05:29and it's called Sudden Death,

0:05:29 > 0:05:33you've just got to conjure up an answer yourself. Here you go.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36Which British Prime Minister was sometimes known

0:05:36 > 0:05:39by the nickname The Clunking Fist?

0:05:39 > 0:05:42Don't know this one. Go for a guess, Harold Macmillan.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Harold Macmillan.

0:05:44 > 0:05:48But no, it's not. Anyone in the studio?

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Tony Blair?

0:05:50 > 0:05:51- You're close.- Or Gordon Brown.

0:05:51 > 0:05:56- It was Tony Blair coined the phrase about Gordon Brown. - About Gordon Brown. Yes.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Clunking Fist though for Gordon Brown.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04Pat, who was president of the USA at the start of the 19th century?

0:06:04 > 0:06:08Well, 19th century, that's the 1800s.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11So it should be...Adams.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13John Adams.

0:06:13 > 0:06:14John Adams...

0:06:14 > 0:06:16is correct, Pat.

0:06:16 > 0:06:17You get the point which takes you

0:06:17 > 0:06:20into the final round. Bad luck, Karen,

0:06:20 > 0:06:22got into Sudden Death but not into the final round.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:06:26 > 0:06:28As it stands, We Cannot Be Serious have lost

0:06:28 > 0:06:31one brain from the final round. The Eggheads haven't lost any

0:06:31 > 0:06:33but we've a long way to go,

0:06:33 > 0:06:35lots of rounds to play, and our second one

0:06:35 > 0:06:37is coming up as Film & Television.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39So who'd like to play this one?

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Er, what do you think?

0:06:41 > 0:06:43Is that Robin?

0:06:43 > 0:06:45I think Robin.

0:06:45 > 0:06:46We're going to put Robin forward.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49All right, Robin, and who will you play from the Eggheads?

0:06:49 > 0:06:52Just remember, it can't be Pat but any of the other four are available.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55I will put myself up against Judith.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57Right.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00OK, let's have Robin and Judith into the Question Room, please.

0:07:02 > 0:07:05All right. Do you want to go first or second, Robin?

0:07:05 > 0:07:07I think I'll go first, please.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12Robin, here's your first question.

0:07:12 > 0:07:16Which 2013 reality television show was won by Dr Leah Totton?

0:07:21 > 0:07:25Reality television is not a strong point for me, so...

0:07:25 > 0:07:28It's not a name I'm familiar with so I'm going to presume that's

0:07:28 > 0:07:31not a celebrity, so I'm going to have a guess at MasterChef.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34OK, MasterChef for Dr Leah Totton.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36- It is The Apprentice.- Oh.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Judith, your first question then.

0:07:38 > 0:07:39See if you take the lead.

0:07:39 > 0:07:43What was the subtitle of the second Percy Jackson film,

0:07:43 > 0:07:45released in 2013?

0:07:49 > 0:07:52I've absolutely no idea.

0:07:52 > 0:07:56So, it is erm...Sea Of Monsters.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59It is Sea Of Monsters, though, you've guessed it.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02- Oh, it's the magic right again.- Yeah.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06Right, Robin, let's get you on the board here.

0:08:06 > 0:08:10From 2006 to 2009, which role did Keith Allen play

0:08:10 > 0:08:12in the BBC television series Robin Hood?

0:08:16 > 0:08:18I haven't watched that either.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22I know Keith Allen, and he's...

0:08:22 > 0:08:25he's got quite a villainous face and plays those characters quite well

0:08:25 > 0:08:28so definitely...

0:08:28 > 0:08:30Well, I don't think it's Robin Hood.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32I don't think it'll be Little John either

0:08:32 > 0:08:35so I'd guess it's Sheriff of Nottingham.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37OK. You've got it by thinking yourself into the

0:08:37 > 0:08:40casting director's mindset there.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Yes, Keith Allen, hamming it up

0:08:42 > 0:08:45occasionally as the Sheriff of Nottingham.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47So well done, you got that.

0:08:47 > 0:08:48Judith, your second question.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51Which actress played the role of a barrister named

0:08:51 > 0:08:55Jo Mills in the legal drama Judge John Deed?

0:08:58 > 0:09:03I love that series. It was Jenny Seagrove.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05Jenny Seagrove is the right answer.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08OK, Judith, you've got the lead back

0:09:08 > 0:09:10so you need this, Robin.

0:09:10 > 0:09:14Who won Best Supporting Actress Oscars for her performances in

0:09:14 > 0:09:18the Woody Allen films Hannah And Her Sisters, and Bullets Over Broadway?

0:09:23 > 0:09:25I do quite like Woody Allen. Erm...

0:09:26 > 0:09:30I'm just desperately trying to think who was in these.

0:09:30 > 0:09:34I think Mia Farrow was definitely in Hannah And Her Sisters.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Erm...

0:09:36 > 0:09:38But I think I'm going to go for Dianne Wiest.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41OK, That is the right answer, well done.

0:09:43 > 0:09:44OK, Judith.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Which actor made his Doctor Who debut

0:09:47 > 0:09:49in a story called Spearhead From Space?

0:09:54 > 0:09:55It could be any of them.

0:09:55 > 0:09:58Spearhead From Space.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00I don't know. Peter Davison.

0:10:00 > 0:10:05Peter Davison. You're going down that right again, but no, it's not.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07- It is... Any Egghead know? - I would've guessed Pertwee.

0:10:07 > 0:10:13Pertwee it is, from Dave there. Jon Pertwee in Spearhead From Space.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15So, that's good news, Robin.

0:10:15 > 0:10:19You survived that, and you're into Sudden Death just like Karen.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22Let's see if you can go one better and clinch the deal.

0:10:22 > 0:10:29Robin, which English actress and singer was born Julia Wells in 1935?

0:10:29 > 0:10:31I really can't think. I'll say...

0:10:32 > 0:10:34..Julie Andrews.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36You got it!

0:10:37 > 0:10:39Where did that come from?

0:10:39 > 0:10:41So, Julie Andrews

0:10:41 > 0:10:42for a very, very good guess there.

0:10:44 > 0:10:45Judith, which Coronation Street character

0:10:45 > 0:10:51was played by Margot Bryant from 1960 to 1976?

0:10:51 > 0:10:54I've no idea because I've never watched it.

0:10:54 > 0:10:58I mean, the only character I can ever remember is Ena Sharples.

0:10:58 > 0:10:59The one with the hairnet.

0:10:59 > 0:11:00But it's not her.

0:11:01 > 0:11:05I just... I'm sorry, I can't do Coronation Street.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09- So are you passing? - I'm afraid I'll have to pass.

0:11:09 > 0:11:13- One of Ena Sharples' best friends, isn't it?- Yeah. Minnie Caldwell.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15- Minnie Caldwell. - Oh, I never would've got that.

0:11:15 > 0:11:21Minnie Caldwell, played by Margot Bryant from 1960 to 1976.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24Which means you've served your way

0:11:24 > 0:11:26into the final round, Robin.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31OK. That means you won't be there, Judith.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:11:35 > 0:11:37Well, that's looking better for We Cannot Be Serious.

0:11:37 > 0:11:40Both teams have now lost one brain from the final round.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42Round Three is Geography.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45So who'd like to play that?

0:11:45 > 0:11:47A wince from Ian.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50- Going to have to be me, is it?- Yeah.

0:11:50 > 0:11:51Captain's role, I'm afraid.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54That's why you were wincing, you knew your time had come.

0:11:54 > 0:11:55The moment had arrived.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57OK, who would you like to play from the Eggheads?

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Pat and Judith have played

0:11:59 > 0:12:01so you can choose from Chris, Dave or Kevin.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03- Tremendous Knowledge?- Yeah, could do.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Tremendous Knowledge, do you fancy it?

0:12:05 > 0:12:08- Do YOU fancy it? It's your... - I fancy it.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10Well, we'll have it then.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12Smashing the ball back and forth across the studio.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Let's have Ian and Dave into the Question Room, please.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20Ian. Now, would you like to go first or second?

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Er... Well, I've told everybody else to go first, so

0:12:23 > 0:12:25I shall go first as well, please, Dermot.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30- All right, Ian. Good luck. - Thank you.- First question is this.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33Until 1967, which landmark

0:12:33 > 0:12:36was the tallest structure in Sydney in Australia?

0:12:42 > 0:12:45Gosh. Erm...

0:12:45 > 0:12:48Well, I've never heard of the Bay Wellington Tower or

0:12:48 > 0:12:50the John Hancock Center.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54But I have BEEN to Sydney.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56And I've seen the Sydney Harbour Bridge

0:12:56 > 0:13:00so I will plump for the Sydney Harbour Bridge, please.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03OK, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, which you've witnessed with your own eyes.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06It's the right answer and a good start, Ian.

0:13:06 > 0:13:07Dave, your first question.

0:13:07 > 0:13:12Germany has borders on two seas - the North Sea and which other?

0:13:15 > 0:13:18Don't think it's the White Sea, or the Caspian Sea.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20I think they've got a border on the Baltic Sea.

0:13:20 > 0:13:26Yes, they do. OK, it's the Baltic, and one each. Back to you, Ian.

0:13:26 > 0:13:29The highest point of the Hindu Kush mountain range

0:13:29 > 0:13:33is located near the border of Afghanistan and which other country?

0:13:37 > 0:13:39Phew. Well...

0:13:39 > 0:13:41Could be any of those, of course,

0:13:41 > 0:13:44they've all got borders with Afghanistan.

0:13:44 > 0:13:48Well, my tennis coach says always go right down the middle,

0:13:48 > 0:13:51so I shall have to go for China.

0:13:51 > 0:13:55OK, China, serving right down the middle.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59Just missed the line, I'm afraid. It's not China.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01Of the other two, Dave...?

0:14:01 > 0:14:02Logic says I should go to India

0:14:02 > 0:14:06but I've got a yearning for Pakistan, if I was doing it.

0:14:06 > 0:14:10Yeah, it's Pakistan. So, your question now then, Dave.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14Which Welsh city had the nickname Copperopolis

0:14:14 > 0:14:17because of its close connections to the copper industry?

0:14:21 > 0:14:25I thought Swansea was more to do with...

0:14:25 > 0:14:28steelworks and that area.

0:14:28 > 0:14:32I would go Newport, but it's not with a degree of certainty

0:14:32 > 0:14:35cos it is a city now, so Newport would be my answer.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37It's not Dave, no. That's incorrect.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40- Swansea.- Yeah, OK. Second guess.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44It's like a double bounce, though, we're not giving you the point.

0:14:44 > 0:14:49No. Not Newport, it is Swansea, as you got the second time of asking.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52Doesn't count, so it stays all square.

0:14:52 > 0:14:53Ian, third question.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55The town of Bergama in Turkey

0:14:55 > 0:14:59is particularly associated with which industry?

0:15:02 > 0:15:07Turkey. Well, obviously they make a lot of carpets in Turkey.

0:15:07 > 0:15:08Erm...

0:15:09 > 0:15:12But I'm not going to go for carpet making

0:15:12 > 0:15:15cos going down the middle let me down last time.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19I'm going to go for, perhaps...

0:15:20 > 0:15:22..glass blowing this time, please.

0:15:22 > 0:15:26- OK, glass blowing.- With fingers crossed.- For Bergama in Turkey.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29It's down the middle, it's carpet making. Sorry, Ian.

0:15:32 > 0:15:36Yeah, carpet making, as you were considering but ultimately rejected.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38So, a chance for Dave to win the round.

0:15:38 > 0:15:43Dave, Dedham Vale, a designated area of natural beauty,

0:15:43 > 0:15:45is on the border of which two English counties?

0:15:51 > 0:15:54I've not heard of this at all.

0:15:54 > 0:15:56I'll have to go for Somerset and Wiltshire.

0:15:57 > 0:15:58- Eggheads, is he right?- No.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01- Essex and Suffolk. - It's Constable country.

0:16:01 > 0:16:05Ah. OK, from the Eggheads it's Constable country,

0:16:05 > 0:16:06so therefore is...

0:16:06 > 0:16:09- Essex and Suffolk.- Yes. Second time round you're really good!

0:16:11 > 0:16:13OK. Well, it stays all square then.

0:16:13 > 0:16:18And we go into Sudden Death again. Three in a row.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23Ian, which African country became landlocked

0:16:23 > 0:16:27as a consequence of Eritrea gaining independence in 1993?

0:16:28 > 0:16:31I think it could be Ethiopia.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33That's my answer, Ethiopia.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36- It's the correct answer.- Oh!

0:16:38 > 0:16:41- Some real problems for Dave.- Yes.

0:16:41 > 0:16:45Dave, Carrasco International Airport serves which South American capital?

0:16:47 > 0:16:49I'm going to have to go Caracas.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52It's not. Do you know, Eggheads?

0:16:52 > 0:16:53Not sure. Is it Lima?

0:16:53 > 0:16:55- No.- No? OK.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58- Just give me a South American capital.- Asuncion.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00- No.- Lima?- No.

0:17:00 > 0:17:04- Montevideo.- Montevideo! Seven guesses. Well, about five.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06Montevideo, the capital of Uruguay of course,

0:17:06 > 0:17:08is served by Carrasco International Airport, and

0:17:08 > 0:17:10enough of South American airports,

0:17:10 > 0:17:13let's concentrate on what just happened there.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16Well, it means, Ian, you will be in the final round. Dave, you won't.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:17:20 > 0:17:23So, We Cannot Be Serious. 30-15 up at the moment.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25You've knocked two Eggheads out of the final round

0:17:25 > 0:17:28and you've only lost one.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31So, we reach our next subject, last one before the final round,

0:17:31 > 0:17:33and this one is Sport.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35Who'd like to play this? Only got two players left

0:17:35 > 0:17:38for this round, Carlo or Pat.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Pat, do you fancy Sport?

0:17:40 > 0:17:42No!

0:17:42 > 0:17:46- But I know it's mine. - It's going to be Pat.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48Don't fancy it but you're going to play it anyway.

0:17:48 > 0:17:52Pat, who would you like to play? There is Kevin or Chris left.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Think I'll take on Chris, there's a Drummond connection here.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58- Chris, please. - Chris, do you like tennis?

0:17:58 > 0:18:00New balls, please.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04Can't say any better than that.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06Let's have Pat and Chris into the Question Room, please.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11OK, Pat. Now, do you want to go first or second on Sport?

0:18:11 > 0:18:13I'd like to go first, please, Dermot.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18OK, good luck and first question.

0:18:18 > 0:18:23In July 2012, Fabio Capello was appointed as the manager

0:18:23 > 0:18:25of which country's football team?

0:18:28 > 0:18:30I would certainly rule Russia out.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34(Fabio Capello...)

0:18:34 > 0:18:37I think I would like to go...

0:18:37 > 0:18:39down the middle. Spain.

0:18:39 > 0:18:40Spain, for Fabio Capello.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45It's not. No, Pat.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47- Do you know, Chris? - Not France, is it?

0:18:47 > 0:18:49No. Why did I ask you?

0:18:50 > 0:18:51It is Russia.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53Oh, no!

0:18:53 > 0:18:54- OK.- It is Russia.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56OK, well...

0:18:56 > 0:18:58See how Chris does with HIS first one.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Who did Marion Bartoli defeat in the final

0:19:01 > 0:19:05to win the ladies' singles title at Wimbledon in 2013?

0:19:05 > 0:19:06Can you believe it?

0:19:11 > 0:19:14Well, I don't think the Williams sisters have been quite

0:19:14 > 0:19:17at the top of their game lately, so I don't think it was Serena Williams.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22The name Sabine Lisicki doesn't ring any bells,

0:19:22 > 0:19:25but I've an idea it was Victoria Azarenka.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27OK. Pat, is he right?

0:19:28 > 0:19:30- Yes, I think he is.- Oh, OK.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32- No?- No.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35- It's Sabine Lisicki.- Oh...

0:19:36 > 0:19:40How quickly the memory fades. OK.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42Well, listen. No damage done,

0:19:42 > 0:19:44it's still all square.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46Your second question, Pat.

0:19:46 > 0:19:51Which US country club was the venue for golf's Ryder Cup in 2012?

0:19:56 > 0:20:00I have to say, golf I don't particularly enjoy.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04I think I'll go down the left and have Augusta.

0:20:04 > 0:20:06OK.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09Suffering from Ian-itis, going down the middle and missing it

0:20:09 > 0:20:11and then missing the middle which is the answer.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13Oh, no!

0:20:13 > 0:20:14It's Medinah.

0:20:14 > 0:20:17OK. Nothing on the board for anyone yet.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20Will Chris be the first one to score?

0:20:20 > 0:20:24In 2013, the New Zealand athlete Valerie Adams won her fourth

0:20:24 > 0:20:27consecutive world championship gold medal in which event?

0:20:30 > 0:20:32Well, it's unlikely to be shot put

0:20:32 > 0:20:35since the Eastern Europeans have still

0:20:35 > 0:20:38got a bit of a monopoly on that where female athletes are concerned.

0:20:38 > 0:20:42Don't connect her with the long jump, so I'll have a go at javelin.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44OK. Javelin.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47You two have been doing well at ruling out the right answer

0:20:47 > 0:20:49first off in your analysis. It's shot put.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53Which Dave clearly knew very well indeed.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55Right. OK.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58I think, well,

0:20:58 > 0:21:01one point just might win it and this might be the question, Pat.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03Oh, I hope so.

0:21:03 > 0:21:05Ekiden, originally a Japanese term,

0:21:05 > 0:21:08is used to refer to what type of sporting activity?

0:21:12 > 0:21:13Well...

0:21:13 > 0:21:18I've not heard of that word at all. Ekiden...

0:21:18 > 0:21:23Long distance running is not something I'd associate with erm...

0:21:25 > 0:21:27This is going to go horribly wrong,

0:21:27 > 0:21:30but I think I am going to go down the middle with archery.

0:21:30 > 0:21:32OK. Archery.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35I'll just refer you to what I already said about the first option

0:21:35 > 0:21:37you rule out - it's long distance running.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39Oh, no.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41All right. Well, a chance to win it, Chris,

0:21:41 > 0:21:43if you get this.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45For which team was Ayrton Senna racing

0:21:45 > 0:21:49when he was killed at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix?

0:21:52 > 0:21:54Didn't they go into a period of mourning

0:21:54 > 0:21:57and actually withdraw from Formula 1 for a couple of years?

0:21:57 > 0:21:59I think it was Benetton.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01No. It wasn't.

0:22:01 > 0:22:06- Williams.- Yeah. From the other Eggheads, Williams, Chris.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08Well, we are into, I suppose,

0:22:08 > 0:22:11effectively a tie-break, and we're into Sudden Death again.

0:22:11 > 0:22:12OK, Pat.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14In which year did the women's pole vault

0:22:14 > 0:22:17become a full medal event at the Olympics?

0:22:19 > 0:22:22I have absolutely no idea.

0:22:25 > 0:22:27I can't even... I'll have to pass, I'm sorry.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30I'm sure the Eggheads will forgive me. I'm not going to allow you

0:22:30 > 0:22:32to pass because you can clearly have a guess.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35- OK...- All I need is an Olympic year.

0:22:35 > 0:22:372008.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40- Is that your guess?- It'll have to be. But I'm sure it's earlier.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43It is earlier. I don't know, Pat, I think you could've worked on that

0:22:43 > 0:22:46a bit harder. It's not the right answer, it's not 2008.

0:22:46 > 0:22:47Do you know, Chris?

0:22:47 > 0:22:50About 1976, isn't it?

0:22:50 > 0:22:52No, that's too early. Other Eggheads?

0:22:52 > 0:22:55I thought it was 2000 when I first heard the question.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58Pat's got it. Yeah, Sydney - 2000.

0:22:58 > 0:22:59Which is VERY late, isn't it?

0:22:59 > 0:23:02All right.

0:23:02 > 0:23:04Chris, well, another chance to win it.

0:23:04 > 0:23:09The American Wilt Chamberlain was a leading player in which sport?

0:23:09 > 0:23:10Basketball.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14It's through the hoop. It is the right answer.

0:23:14 > 0:23:15Basketball.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17Chris has stormed into the final round.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20- Bad luck, Pat. Means you won't be there.- Thank you.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23Would you both please come back and join your teams?

0:23:25 > 0:23:27And so this is what we've been playing towards.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30It's time for the final round, which as always is General Knowledge.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads

0:23:32 > 0:23:34won't be allowed to take part in this round.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37So Karen and Pat from We Cannot Be Serious,

0:23:37 > 0:23:40and Judith and Dave from the Eggheads,

0:23:40 > 0:23:42would you leave the studio now, please?

0:23:43 > 0:23:44So, Ian, Carlo and Robin,

0:23:44 > 0:23:48you're playing to win We Cannot Be Serious £4,000.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51And Chris, Pat and Kevin, you are playing for something which

0:23:51 > 0:23:54money cannot buy, the Eggheads' reputation.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57And as usual I ask each team three questions in turn.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59This time, the questions are all General Knowledge

0:23:59 > 0:24:01and you are allowed to confer.

0:24:01 > 0:24:02So, We Cannot Be Serious, the question is

0:24:02 > 0:24:05are your three brains better than the Eggheads' three?

0:24:05 > 0:24:08Ian, Carlo and Robin, how do you want to play the final round?

0:24:08 > 0:24:09Do you want to go first or second?

0:24:09 > 0:24:12We'll go first, please, Dermot.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16Here's your first question.

0:24:16 > 0:24:19Which country won the Eurovision Song Contest

0:24:19 > 0:24:23in 1992, 1993 and 1994?

0:24:25 > 0:24:29When did ABBA win it...? And Ireland won...

0:24:29 > 0:24:32- I think it's going to be Ireland. - ..quite a few times, didn't they?

0:24:32 > 0:24:34We'll go for Ireland.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36We'll say Ireland, please, Dermot.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38Ireland, three consecutive years winning the

0:24:38 > 0:24:41Eurovision Song Contest. It is of course the right answer, well done.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43All right, Eggheads.

0:24:43 > 0:24:44Your first question.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47Which of these is an American performance theatre group

0:24:47 > 0:24:53founded in 1987 by Chris Wink, Matt Goldman and Phil Stanton?

0:24:56 > 0:24:58The only one I'm aware of is

0:24:58 > 0:25:00the Blue Man Group. Sounds logical.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Erm...

0:25:02 > 0:25:04We'll go for the Blue Man Group.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06I think the others are made up.

0:25:06 > 0:25:07And the Blue Man Group are

0:25:07 > 0:25:08a well-known

0:25:08 > 0:25:11outfit on the performance circuit.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Blue Man Group is correct. OK. It's all square at one-all.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15And your second question,

0:25:15 > 0:25:18We Cannot Be Serious.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22Albert Einstein died in 1955 in which country?

0:25:27 > 0:25:30For some reason I'm going to discount the United States.

0:25:30 > 0:25:34I've got some idea it was somewhere like Norway, with the Nobel things.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36Yeah...

0:25:36 > 0:25:39Are we happy with Norway?

0:25:39 > 0:25:43- Yeah. If we're guessing, that's what I would go for.- Norway?- Yeah.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45We'll go for Norway, please, Dermot.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49OK, Norway. Albert Einstein died in 1955 in...

0:25:50 > 0:25:52It's incorrect.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55And you know what? Because the Eggheads know I won't ask them,

0:25:55 > 0:25:58it's down the middle again, it IS the USA.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00Right - well, will the Eggheads

0:26:00 > 0:26:01get the lead here?

0:26:01 > 0:26:04Which type of building was converted into Gateshead's

0:26:04 > 0:26:07BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art?

0:26:10 > 0:26:13- It used to be a flour mill. - Flour mill?- Yeah.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16That was previously a flour mill.

0:26:16 > 0:26:17Flour mill.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20It's the right answer, Eggheads. You have that lead.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22Right, We Cannot Be Serious have to be serious,

0:26:22 > 0:26:25you must get this.

0:26:25 > 0:26:27Which writer is credited with the line,

0:26:27 > 0:26:30"There are no second acts in American lives"?

0:26:37 > 0:26:39- Any ideas, guys?- Not really.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41Any inkling?

0:26:41 > 0:26:44F Scott Fitzgerald came into my head but

0:26:44 > 0:26:46- no reasoning behind it at all.- Mm.

0:26:47 > 0:26:48Nothing at all.

0:26:48 > 0:26:51Well, he was the most prolific, wasn't he? So...

0:26:51 > 0:26:57- I can't help on this one.- If we're guessing, I'd go F Scott Fitzgerald.

0:26:57 > 0:27:01Again, it's another guess. We'll say F Scott Fitzgerald, please, Dermot.

0:27:01 > 0:27:05OK, you've got to get this, as you know. F Scott Fitzgerald.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07It's the right answer.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09Ooh... Well done, guys.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11Well done.

0:27:11 > 0:27:12But...

0:27:12 > 0:27:16The Eggheads have an advantage, and can win the game with this question.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19Eggheads, paintings by which American singer

0:27:19 > 0:27:22were displayed in an exhibition called Face Value

0:27:22 > 0:27:26at the National Portrait Gallery in London in 2013?

0:27:30 > 0:27:33It's Bob Dylan, I saw it. Yeah. So, it's Bob Dylan.

0:27:33 > 0:27:34Er...

0:27:34 > 0:27:36Luckily saw this one. It's Bob Dylan.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41No appealing that one, is there? It is the right answer.

0:27:41 > 0:27:42Eggheads, you've won.

0:27:47 > 0:27:51Kevin actually saw it. OK. Right, well, bad luck.

0:27:51 > 0:27:55And that actually is pretty much the tale of the game for you -

0:27:55 > 0:27:59I mean, in tennis parlance it was as if we had Hawk-Eye on some of those.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01Should've gone down the middle more often.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04Yes - and when you did go down the middle it WASN'T there.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06It was just a bit of bad luck there.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10An even stevens performance in the head-to-heads, all square,

0:28:10 > 0:28:14then in the final round just that last one. Belt and braces for Kevin.

0:28:14 > 0:28:16He's been there to see for himself

0:28:16 > 0:28:19that it was Bob Dylan that staged that Face Value exhibition.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22So, bad luck, We Cannot Be Serious. Best of luck with the tennis.
