0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Together, they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The question is - can they be beaten?
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where 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 challenging our quiz Goliaths today are The Two Tones.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39This team of colleagues all work for Greater Manchester Police.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Let's meet them.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44Hi, I'm Simon. I'm 33 and I'm a police sergeant.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Hi, I'm Tim. I'm 43 years old and I'm a police officer.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50Hi, I'm Rick. I'm 30 years old and I'm a police officer.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Hi, I'm Chris. I'm 50 and I'm a police officer.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57Hello, I'm Simon. I'm 39 and I'm also a police officer.
0:00:57 > 0:00:58Welcome to you, Two Tones.
0:00:58 > 0:00:59So you regularly quiz -
0:00:59 > 0:01:02is this informal, or in pub and police quizzes, or what?
0:01:02 > 0:01:04In pub quizzes mostly.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Sometimes at work, when we've got the time.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Favourite subjects or anything that's thrown at you?
0:01:09 > 0:01:11We like a bit of history, don't we?
0:01:11 > 0:01:13History - all of us.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16A lot of the Eggheads do as well. Shall we get on with it?
0:01:16 > 0:01:17I'll tell you about the money.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21Every day there's £1,000 up for grabs for our Challengers.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:23 > 0:01:25the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Two Tones, the Eggheads have won the last six games -
0:01:27 > 0:01:31means £7,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads today.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33And let's look at the first head-to-head battle -
0:01:33 > 0:01:37there we are, first subject is History.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39Who'd like to play that? Presumably quite a number of you.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Choose a player.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45If we're sticking with what we said, that's going to be me, isn't it?
0:01:45 > 0:01:47- Yeah.- Get it over and done with.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49That will be me.
0:01:49 > 0:01:50All right, Simon.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Choose an Egghead - any one of the five, it's the first round.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56I think it's going to have to be CJ.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57- All right.- Fair enough.
0:01:57 > 0:01:58You like history, too.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02Let's have Simon and CJ into the Question Room to play
0:02:02 > 0:02:04the opening round.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Good luck, Simon. It's History, do you want to go first or second?
0:02:07 > 0:02:09I would like to go first, please.
0:02:12 > 0:02:13Here's your first question.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15The heir to the throne of which country
0:02:15 > 0:02:17was traditionally called the Dauphin?
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Well, I've never heard of it.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29I think I can easily discount Scotland.
0:02:29 > 0:02:30That doesn't sound Scottish.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34So it's between France and Spain.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38And between the two, simply because it sounds like a French word,
0:02:38 > 0:02:40I'll go with France, please.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42That'll do - right answer, yes.
0:02:42 > 0:02:43Dauphin of France.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46OK, CJ.
0:02:46 > 0:02:51Which revolutionary machine is Hiram Moore said to have
0:02:51 > 0:02:55invented in the United States in 1834?
0:03:00 > 0:03:02It's not the submarine - that's Cornelius van Drebbel
0:03:02 > 0:03:05and that was in the 17th century.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08Uh... You automatically think of combine harvesters as...
0:03:11 > 0:03:12..engine-driven machines,
0:03:12 > 0:03:15but of course an early one doesn't have to be.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Dishwashers are much, much earlier than you think they are.
0:03:22 > 0:03:26I'll have to go with dishwasher, but I'm not at all sure.
0:03:26 > 0:03:27OK. Dishwasher.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31It's not. No, it's not, CJ.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33I'll let you say - you know what it is.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37- Is it combine harvester then, Dermot? - It is combine harvester.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Combine harvester, invented by Hiram Moore.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Well, that's a good start, Simon.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45See if you can build a bigger lead here.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47The building of Caernarfon Castle,
0:03:47 > 0:03:50styled after the walls of Constantinople,
0:03:50 > 0:03:52was ordered by which king?
0:03:56 > 0:03:59When you said Caernarfon Castle I was thinking...
0:04:00 > 0:04:02..Norman conquests.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Henry V is far too late for that. John...
0:04:07 > 0:04:09..I'm not sure when he was about but I think it
0:04:09 > 0:04:12was before the Norman conquests, so I will go with Edward I.
0:04:12 > 0:04:13Edward I is the right answer.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15You've got two - it's a 2-0 lead,
0:04:15 > 0:04:19but, of course, it might be whittled down a bit,
0:04:19 > 0:04:21cos CJ hasn't faced his second question.
0:04:21 > 0:04:26The Chinchorro people, who practised mummification of the dead
0:04:26 > 0:04:292,000 years before the Egyptians, were from which part of the world?
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Well, mummification's traditionally from South America.
0:04:36 > 0:04:42They have a lot of ancient peoples there, such as the Chimu,
0:04:42 > 0:04:46who I think practised mummification long time before the Egyptians.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Um... Certainly don't think it's East Africa
0:04:50 > 0:04:52and I'm fairly sure it's not China.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Simply because I know there's a long tradition of it,
0:04:55 > 0:04:57and the word sounds South American, I'll try South America.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01OK. You've got the right answer, CJ.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03CJ's very much still in it,
0:05:03 > 0:05:07but you can snuff out his revival here, Simon.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10If you give me a right answer, you are in the final round.
0:05:10 > 0:05:15Which Roman historian wrote Origins, in the 2nd century BC,
0:05:15 > 0:05:18covering the history of Rome from its beginning?
0:05:24 > 0:05:26I haven't got a clue.
0:05:29 > 0:05:34Cato the Elder - I'm guessing that might be a bit of a...
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Stuck in there to lead me astray, so I'm not going to go with that.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Nennius. I'll go with Nennius.
0:05:42 > 0:05:43OK. Nennius.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Cato the Elder to lead you astray -
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Cato the Elder would have led you into the final round!
0:05:47 > 0:05:49It's the answer we were looking for.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52Cato the Elder wrote Origins.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55CJ's revival given a chance here.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00CJ, in 1959, when modern postcodes were first introduced in the UK,
0:06:00 > 0:06:03which city was chosen for the pilot scheme?
0:06:05 > 0:06:071959.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09See, I hate this.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Before you read out the options, one of those leapt into my mind.
0:06:14 > 0:06:19And I've got absolutely no...reason to understand why.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23But I don't know the answer, so...
0:06:25 > 0:06:29With no confidence and no logic behind it,
0:06:29 > 0:06:31I'm going to go for Norwich.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- OK. And is that the one that leapt into your mind?- Yeah.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Which is the right answer.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Obviously you've seen it, read it somewhere and, in actual fact,
0:06:40 > 0:06:42all the choices do is confuse you.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44- Absolutely!- Put doubt into your mind. It can work that way,
0:06:44 > 0:06:47particularly for the Eggheads with so much knowledge in there.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50OK. Simon, we're now into Sudden Death.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52If it's all-square after three questions,
0:06:52 > 0:06:55whatever round it is, we go to Sudden Death and remove the options.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Can you tell me, Simon, in British history,
0:06:58 > 0:07:01which king, accompanied by swordsmen,
0:07:01 > 0:07:04marched to Parliament to arrest MPs called
0:07:04 > 0:07:08Pym, Hampden, Haselrig, Holles and Strode?
0:07:09 > 0:07:10Again, I don't know.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15I'm going to guess that it's going to be...
0:07:15 > 0:07:17English Civil War era.
0:07:17 > 0:07:18I'll go with James I.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Oh!
0:07:22 > 0:07:24You identified the period, you got the wrong king.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Close, but no cigar.
0:07:26 > 0:07:27It's Charles I.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Charles I. So close.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33But didn't get it.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37CJ, that revival started as a little flame,
0:07:37 > 0:07:40is it going to turn into a conflagration?
0:07:40 > 0:07:41Got to get this.
0:07:41 > 0:07:47Which Portuguese explorer was given the title Viceroy Of India in 1524?
0:07:47 > 0:07:50I will plump for Vasco da Gama.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Vasco da Gama, Portuguese explorer,
0:07:53 > 0:07:57was he given the title Viceroy Of India in 1524?
0:07:57 > 0:08:01Yes, he was. You've got it, CJ. What a revival that was.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Simon, you were sailing along there,
0:08:03 > 0:08:06sailing through those early questions, then you hit the rocks.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09- Oh, well.- And CJ's sailed in, courtesy of Vasco da Gama.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Bad luck, Simon, you won't be in the final round - CJ will be there.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Would you both, please, come back and join your teams.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Good round, that. Swung back and forth
0:08:17 > 0:08:19but in the end the Eggheads won through,
0:08:19 > 0:08:22so The Two Tones have lost one brain from the final round,
0:08:22 > 0:08:23the Eggheads are all still there.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Round two is Music. Who'd like to play this from The Two Tones?
0:08:27 > 0:08:31I think we know who's going to go for it - Simon.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- It's going to be Simon.- Other Simon - Simon N down the end there.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38Simon, who would you like to play? It can be any of them apart from CJ.
0:08:38 > 0:08:43SIMON: I'd probably say Kevin does know quite a lot about music.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44It's up to you, mate.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Either between Chris or Dave.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48I'll go Kevin, please.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Oh!
0:08:50 > 0:08:53- He said it's up to you - Simon's gone for it.- I did!
0:08:53 > 0:08:57All right, it's going to be Simon playing Kevin, the subject is Music.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Would you both go to the Question Room, please.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Simon, would you like to go first or second?
0:09:03 > 0:09:04I'll go first, please.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Best of luck, Simon. Here's your question.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12"Take a sad song and make it better",
0:09:12 > 0:09:14is a lyric from which song by The Beatles?
0:09:17 > 0:09:22Luckily, this is one that I do know the answer to - it's...
0:09:22 > 0:09:25I'm a Beatles fan, I know that answer's Hey Jude.
0:09:25 > 0:09:30Of course, Hey Jude is correct. Take a sad song and make it better.
0:09:30 > 0:09:31Couldn't better that answer.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Kevin, what type of instrument is The Messiah,
0:09:34 > 0:09:37made by Antonio Stradivari,
0:09:37 > 0:09:39and held by the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford?
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Well, he made stringed instruments, but I don't think this one is a harp.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48He's obviously most famous for his violins
0:09:48 > 0:09:51and they've certainly got one of those in the Ashmolean,
0:09:51 > 0:09:52so violin.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Is the right answer. Have you seen it, Kevin?
0:09:54 > 0:09:57- Yes.- Of course you have.
0:09:57 > 0:10:02All right. Second question for both of you, yours coming up now, Simon.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06The folk and blues performer Huddie Ledbetter,
0:10:06 > 0:10:08better known as Lead Belly,
0:10:08 > 0:10:12was particularly known for his virtuosity on which instrument?
0:10:16 > 0:10:21Erm, it's not my particular genre of music.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24There's nothing springing to mind at all that's
0:10:24 > 0:10:27set any of the three out for me. Erm...
0:10:28 > 0:10:30I'm going to go clarinet.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33OK, clarinet for Lead Belly.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35No, not the clarinet.
0:10:35 > 0:10:36Kevin?
0:10:36 > 0:10:38- Guitar.- Yeah.
0:10:38 > 0:10:4112-string guitar for the folk and blues performer known as Lead Belly.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43OK, Kevin, will you take the lead?
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Which singer's UK hit singles have included
0:10:46 > 0:10:50Not That Kind, Left Outside Alone, and Sick And Tired?
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Strangely enough, none of those are ringing any bells,
0:10:56 > 0:10:58so...I really don't know.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06I'll try Anastacia. I don't know it.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Trying Anastacia for Not That Kind, Left Outside Alone
0:11:08 > 0:11:10and Sick And Tired.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Other Eggheads, would you have gone with that?
0:11:12 > 0:11:14I would have gone Anastacia, but...
0:11:14 > 0:11:17- I thought Sick And Tired was Pink, but I don't know.- OK.
0:11:17 > 0:11:18It is Anastacia!
0:11:18 > 0:11:20He's got it!
0:11:20 > 0:11:22Bad luck, Simon.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24He had to think about it - bit of a guess,
0:11:24 > 0:11:26but it means you need to get this one, Simon.
0:11:26 > 0:11:31In 2013, who had a UK number one with his album Time,
0:11:31 > 0:11:3537 years after his last chart-topping studio album?
0:11:39 > 0:11:45I think the person I'm thinking about released an album in 2013.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Again, it's not my particular genre of music,
0:11:48 > 0:11:53but I've got a hunch that it's David Bowie.
0:11:53 > 0:11:54OK. David Bowie with Time.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58It's not, Simon, no.
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Kevin?
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Bowie did come back in 2013.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06- Exactly.- But so did Rod Stewart.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Yeah, it's Rod Stewart with the album Time,
0:12:09 > 0:12:11which means Kevin's done enough.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14Kevin's got two and you've only got one out of the three,
0:12:14 > 0:12:15so we don't put another question to Kevin.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18You're in the final round, Kevin. No place for you, Simon, sorry.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22Would you both, please, come back and join your teams.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24The Two Tones have lost two brains from the final round,
0:12:24 > 0:12:26the Eggheads are all still there.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28We've got two more head-to-heads coming up
0:12:28 > 0:12:30so it could be all-square in the final round
0:12:30 > 0:12:33depending on the outcome of this, our next head-to-head -
0:12:33 > 0:12:34it's Arts & Books.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Who'd like to play this from The Two Tones?
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Tim, Rick or Chris?
0:12:38 > 0:12:40I think we're going to have to.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42- Tim?- Yeah.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER
0:12:44 > 0:12:48On the account that Tim has read at least one book that we know of,
0:12:48 > 0:12:50we're going to go with Tim.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53All right. Tim, who do you want to choose from the Eggheads?
0:12:53 > 0:12:55CJ and Kevin have played,
0:12:55 > 0:12:57so you can have Chris, Barry or Dave.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59- I'm going to go for Dave. - OK. Dave.
0:12:59 > 0:13:03Let's have Tim and Dave into the Question Room, please.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Tim, you grew up in the United States.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Do you have dual nationality or were your parents working there?
0:13:10 > 0:13:11No. When I say grew up there,
0:13:11 > 0:13:14I went to high school over there at 15,
0:13:14 > 0:13:18so I finished high school over there in Manchester, Vermont.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20I did a couple of years at high school
0:13:20 > 0:13:23and then stayed out there for a few years afterwards.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26Manchester in Vermont - had to be, didn't it!
0:13:26 > 0:13:28- Yeah - home from home.- OK.
0:13:28 > 0:13:29And you've read a book?
0:13:29 > 0:13:31It was a long time ago, though,
0:13:31 > 0:13:34so this is not where I want to be right now.
0:13:34 > 0:13:35All right, Tim.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Well, you are there and do you want to go first or second?
0:13:38 > 0:13:40I'll go first - get it over and done with.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46All right. Good luck, Tim, here's your first question.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49Judith Krantz, born in the 1920s,
0:13:49 > 0:13:52became well-known in which profession in the 1970s?
0:13:57 > 0:14:00I'm sure...
0:14:00 > 0:14:01When I say I'm sure, I'm not sure!
0:14:01 > 0:14:04I've got an inkling on this one.
0:14:04 > 0:14:05I recall...
0:14:05 > 0:14:08I'm sure I've seen books by her.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Don't think they've been photography books - I'm going to go for novelist.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Novelist for Judith Krantz - right answer, Tim.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Good start.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Well negotiated.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Dave, your first question.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Which of these is the name given to art in which the medium is
0:14:23 > 0:14:28the artist's body and the artwork is the actions made by the artist?
0:14:32 > 0:14:36I've got to go performance art, but I'm not really...
0:14:36 > 0:14:39following the thing there. I'm probably having a brain freeze.
0:14:39 > 0:14:40Performance Art.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Yep, that's the right answer, Dave. You're on the board.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44OK, Tim.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48The painting Sunset At Montmajour was
0:14:48 > 0:14:53unveiled in September 2013 as a work by which artist?
0:14:56 > 0:14:58I'm going to spell it for you -
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Sunset At Montmajour -
0:15:00 > 0:15:04M-O-N-T-M-A-J-O-U-R.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09I don't think the spelling helps in any way, shape, or form!
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Eh...now then, Van Gogh, Monet, Cezanne...
0:15:14 > 0:15:18I'm just going to wild guess - for some reason I'm going to say Cezanne.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Cezanne for Sunset At Montmajour,
0:15:20 > 0:15:24discovered a long time after they'd painted it.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26It's not Cezanne. Do you know, Dave?
0:15:26 > 0:15:28I would have gone Monet.
0:15:28 > 0:15:29THEY SCOFF It's van Gogh.
0:15:29 > 0:15:30It is van Gogh!
0:15:30 > 0:15:36OK. Well, a chance for Dave to take the lead, Tim didn't get that.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40Dave, in George Bernard Shaw's play of the same name,
0:15:40 > 0:15:42what is John Bull's Other Island?
0:15:45 > 0:15:48I don't think it's Australia. I don't think it is USA.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50I think it is the Republic Of Ireland.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53George Bernard Shaw, of course, with his Irish roots -
0:15:53 > 0:15:56it is the right answer. Well done.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59You have that lead, and you must get this, Tim.
0:15:59 > 0:16:03"The sun shone, having no alternative, on the nothing new",
0:16:03 > 0:16:06is the opening sentence of a novel by which author?
0:16:11 > 0:16:14Whoof! Certainly not something I've read!
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Now then...
0:16:16 > 0:16:18It sounds fairly modern-ish.
0:16:18 > 0:16:23I don't think it's Beckett, cos he's from further back.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Not too sure about Steinbeck.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30I have read George Orwell but not for many, many years.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35It sounds a little bit like something he would write -
0:16:35 > 0:16:37I'm going to go with George Orwell.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39George Orwell for "The sun shone, having no alternative,
0:16:39 > 0:16:41"on the nothing new."
0:16:41 > 0:16:43It's the opening sentence of a novel by...
0:16:43 > 0:16:46No, not Orwell, it's incorrect.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49Dave, any ideas if you've only got two there?
0:16:49 > 0:16:50I'll go Samuel Beckett.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Yes, it is by Beckett, Samuel Beckett,
0:16:53 > 0:16:57which means, Tim, Dave's done enough to get through to the
0:16:57 > 0:16:59final round - no place for you.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Would you both, please, come back and join your teams.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04As it stands,
0:17:04 > 0:17:07The Two Tones have lost three brains from the final round,
0:17:07 > 0:17:10the Eggheads haven't lost any, and we've got one head-to-head left,
0:17:10 > 0:17:12so a final chance to knock an Egghead out.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15This one's Film & Television.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18Rick or Chris there available to play it.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Chris is being held back as our special man in the know,
0:17:21 > 0:17:23so it's going to be Rick.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27Rick, you can choose from Chris or Barry on the Eggheads' side.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29SIMON: I would suggest Chris.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31We'll go with Chris.
0:17:31 > 0:17:35All right. So it's going to be Rick and Chris playing this one.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Into the Question Room, both of you.
0:17:38 > 0:17:39All right, see how you do, Rick.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Do you want to go first or second?
0:17:41 > 0:17:42I'll go first, please.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47First question, Rick, here you go.
0:17:47 > 0:17:53Who plays the villainous Raul Silva in the 2012 James Bond film Skyfall?
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Can't say I've heard of any of them.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03I've certainly not watched the film,
0:18:03 > 0:18:06so it's going to be a bit of a guess.
0:18:06 > 0:18:10And I will go with Gerard Depardieu.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12The one on the left?
0:18:12 > 0:18:14- The one on the left, yeah. - Gerard Depardieu.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17OK. But it's not Gerard Depardieu.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- Do you know, Chris? - Yes - Javier Bardem.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21OK. Well, he's not French, but...
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Javier Bardem is what we were looking for,
0:18:24 > 0:18:26so nothing for you, Rick.
0:18:26 > 0:18:27Chris, your first question.
0:18:27 > 0:18:33Natalie Lowe, Aliona Vilani and Erin Boag found fame on which UK TV show?
0:18:37 > 0:18:42Erin Boag sticks in my mind - I think she was on Strictly Come Dancing.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44- Is that the only one you recognise? - Mm-hm.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48All right. It is the right answer - that'll do. You have the lead.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Rick, let's get you started with this one, we hope.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55Who played the title role played by Steve McQueen in the original,
0:18:55 > 0:18:58in the 1999 remake of The Thomas Crown Affair?
0:19:02 > 0:19:05Again, a film one which I have not seen.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08I think it's going to be a guess again.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10I don't think it was Timothy Dalton.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14I will go with...Pierce Brosnan.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16OK. Pierce Brosnan.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18The role in The Thomas Crown affair,
0:19:18 > 0:19:21the 1999 remake, was taken by Pierce Brosnan - you've got it.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28OK, Chris, Phil Lynott's Yellow Pearl,
0:19:28 > 0:19:30and Paul Hardcastle's The Wizard,
0:19:30 > 0:19:33were two of the theme tunes to which TV programme?
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Top Of The Pops it was Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin,
0:19:41 > 0:19:42so it's not that.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44I don't think it was Razzamatazz either, I think
0:19:44 > 0:19:46it was one of the tunes to The Tube.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48It is not The Tube.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50It is, other Eggheads....?
0:19:50 > 0:19:52- ALL:- Top Of The Pops. - Oh!
0:19:52 > 0:19:55It's all-square, everything to play for.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58Rick, in which long-running television drama series did
0:19:58 > 0:20:02Terence Alexander play a character called Charlie Hungerford?
0:20:05 > 0:20:07I will, again, for the third time, have a
0:20:07 > 0:20:11guess and I think I'm going to go with Lovejoy.
0:20:11 > 0:20:12Lovejoy...
0:20:12 > 0:20:16I'm afraid there's a few groans here, Rick - it's not right.
0:20:16 > 0:20:17Chris'll know though.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20- It's Bergerac.- It is Bergerac.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24OK. Well, a chance for you, Chris, to win it.
0:20:24 > 0:20:30Frederic Raphael won an Oscar for the screenplay of which 1965 film?
0:20:33 > 0:20:34Not The Sound Of Music.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Darling - that was Julie Christie.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41Eh...Doctor Zhivago.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Doctor Zhivago for Frederic Raphael.
0:20:44 > 0:20:45- No!- No?
0:20:45 > 0:20:46It's not. Other Eggheads?
0:20:46 > 0:20:49- ALL:- Darling.- Darling.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51So it's still all-square.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Rick, you've survived,
0:20:53 > 0:20:56and you might just win it if you give me a correct answer here.
0:20:56 > 0:21:01What is the name of the TV sitcom created by and starring
0:21:01 > 0:21:07Adil Ray, that is set in Birmingham and was first seen in 2012?
0:21:07 > 0:21:11I can't recall any programmes that have been in Birmingham.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12Erm...
0:21:13 > 0:21:15I will go with...
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Believe there might have been something in Birmingham with
0:21:18 > 0:21:19the Khan family.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24I can't recall what the programme's actually called.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28- Living With The Khans. - Is that your answer, Rick?
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Yeah, that's my answer.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33I can't accept it, Rick. You are so close.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36This is the curse of Sudden Death - given what you've said there,
0:21:36 > 0:21:38you would pick this out of a list instantly.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41It is not Living With The Khans, it is, Eggheads?
0:21:41 > 0:21:44- ALL:- Citizen Khan.- Citizen Khan.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Bad luck, Rick, that was really unfortunate.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Means Chris has another chance to win the round.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Chris, David Morrissey, Mark Strong and Cherie Lunghi,
0:21:53 > 0:21:57have all narrated which genealogical programme?
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Who Do You Think You Are?
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Who Do You Think You Are? is the right answer.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05Chris, you've just sneaked through.
0:22:05 > 0:22:06Really unlucky there, Rick.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09Really, really unlucky with that Sudden Death question.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10But we couldn't allow it,
0:22:10 > 0:22:12which means you won't be in the final round.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Chris, you're going to be there.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Would you both, please, come back and join your teams.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20This is what we've been playing towards, it's the final round,
0:22:20 > 0:22:22which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads won't be
0:22:24 > 0:22:26allowed to take part in his round,
0:22:26 > 0:22:30so, both the Simons and Tim and Rick from The Two Tones,
0:22:30 > 0:22:32would you, please, leave the studio now.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37Chris, you're playing to win The Two Tones £7,000.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Dave, Kevin, CJ, Barry and Chris,
0:22:39 > 0:22:42you're playing for something which money can't buy -
0:22:42 > 0:22:44the Eggheads' reputation.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47As usual, I'm going to ask each team three questions in turn.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49This time, the questions are all General Knowledge,
0:22:49 > 0:22:51and you are allowed to confer.
0:22:51 > 0:22:52Chris, the question is -
0:22:52 > 0:22:55is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?
0:22:55 > 0:22:58- Yeah.- Chris, what do you want to do - first or second?
0:22:58 > 0:23:00I'll go first, yeah.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Nothing to lose, Chris, give it a go.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09First question coming up - General Knowledge, final round.
0:23:09 > 0:23:14Which English city is in the names of a type of wide-bottomed
0:23:14 > 0:23:17trousers and a type of marmalade?
0:23:21 > 0:23:23I haven't got a clue about the marmalade,
0:23:23 > 0:23:26but I know there are trousers called Oxford bags,
0:23:26 > 0:23:31which I think are wide-bottomed, so with that in mind,
0:23:31 > 0:23:33I'll go for Oxford, please.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36OK. Well, the trousers led you to the right answer.
0:23:36 > 0:23:37Oxford - well done.
0:23:39 > 0:23:40Right, Eggheads,
0:23:40 > 0:23:44for what is the Bavarian village of Oberammergau world-famous?
0:23:48 > 0:23:49- Every ten years! - It's held every ten years,
0:23:49 > 0:23:54it's the Passion Play about the final few hours of Jesus Christ.
0:23:54 > 0:23:55So it's the Passion Play.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58Every ten years, so it must be difficult to get to see it.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59Yeah, it is.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01It's generally always sold out.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03That's what I mean.
0:24:03 > 0:24:07All right. Well, Passion Play for Oberammergau, the Eggheads got that.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09So it's back to you, Chris, and here you go.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13Which fashion-industry nickname has been applied to both
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Azzedine Alaia and Herve Leger?
0:24:22 > 0:24:23Erm...
0:24:23 > 0:24:25I haven't got a clue.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29I don't even know what peplum means.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33To be honest, I thought they were both women
0:24:33 > 0:24:36when you read the names out, so prince and king and sheik...
0:24:38 > 0:24:39The Sheik Of Chic.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41OK.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Azzedine Alaia and Herve Leger...
0:24:44 > 0:24:46..have been dubbed...
0:24:48 > 0:24:50..The King Of Cling.
0:24:50 > 0:24:51All right.
0:24:51 > 0:24:55Well, Chris didn't get that so how will you do with your second one?
0:24:55 > 0:24:59What is referred to by the Australian slang term "illywhacker"?
0:25:05 > 0:25:08My first thought was a confidence trickster.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10That was what I first thought of.
0:25:10 > 0:25:14I think a Queenslander, is he a "banana man", or something?
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Yeah, a "banana bender".
0:25:16 > 0:25:17That's it!
0:25:17 > 0:25:22Some leading Australian novelist wrote a book called the Illywhacker.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24Are we all happy with that then?
0:25:24 > 0:25:26- We all thought the same thing. - We all thought the same thing
0:25:26 > 0:25:28and we're going to go for confidence trickster.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Confidence trickster for illywhackers.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33Illywhacker's a confidence trickster!
0:25:33 > 0:25:35Identified by the Eggheads, which means,
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Chris, as happened to some of your colleagues,
0:25:38 > 0:25:40you have to get this to stay in it.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45The Italian football club Parma FC was originally named after
0:25:45 > 0:25:46which composer?
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Erm...
0:25:51 > 0:25:54I really don't know, it's going to be another guess.
0:25:55 > 0:25:59It could be any of them cos I think they're all Italian composers.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Verdi.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06Verdi. A must-get question for Chris.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08You have got it!
0:26:08 > 0:26:09You landed it!
0:26:09 > 0:26:10Good guess.
0:26:10 > 0:26:16Still in it, just got to hope the Eggheads don't get this.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19Eggheads, 28-year-old William Smellie was the first
0:26:19 > 0:26:22editor of which prestigious reference work?
0:26:27 > 0:26:30I've heard this - I think it's Encyclopaedia Britannica.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32It's a Scottish name and Britannica was Scottish.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34I think it was in Edinburgh.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36It would make sense if it was Scottish.
0:26:36 > 0:26:37Are we happy with that?
0:26:37 > 0:26:39Let's just think a minute.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41Gray's Anatomy is Gray.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Is there somebody medical who's Smellie?
0:26:50 > 0:26:52I might be getting confused with something else,
0:26:52 > 0:26:55so go with what you're thinking.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58- CJ:- We've got names for the other two anyway.
0:26:58 > 0:27:02OK, we think the Oxford English Dictionary was Murray
0:27:02 > 0:27:04and Gray's Anatomy was of course, Gray.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06But the Encyclopaedia Britannica was first
0:27:06 > 0:27:09published in Edinburgh around 1797.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12And we think the editor of that might have been a gentleman who
0:27:12 > 0:27:15rejoiced in the fine Scottish name of Smellie.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19You lot must have been brought up on the Encyclopaedia Britannica.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21Imbibing them from the age of two!
0:27:21 > 0:27:24Occasionally intravenous.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28So you think the Encyclopaedia Britannica...
0:27:28 > 0:27:31I think you know it - it is the right answer, Eggheads.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33You've won.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39Chris, valiant effort in the final round,
0:27:39 > 0:27:41I don't think there's any shame on
0:27:41 > 0:27:42going out on The King Of Cling myself!
0:27:42 > 0:27:46It's the only one you didn't know, but not to be, on the day -
0:27:46 > 0:27:49always going to be tough - one of you against five of them.
