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?
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers
0:00:27 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35And, taking on our awesome quiz champions today are
0:00:35 > 0:00:37East Slope De Mooi.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39This team all met in Sussex University where,
0:00:39 > 0:00:41for a long time, they all lived in
0:00:41 > 0:00:45the notoriously rowdy East Slope halls of residence.
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Let's meet them.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50Hi, I'm Patrick, I'm 23, and I'm a politics and sociology graduate.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Hi, I'm Shad I'm 21, and I'm a history and politics student.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Claire, I'm 21, and I'm a law student.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Kes, I'm 23, and I'm a film studies student.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Tom, I'm 21, and I'm a preschool support worker.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Well, what a team name, welcome to East Slope De Mooi.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10I've got a confession to make,
0:01:10 > 0:01:12I suppose I should declare an interest before it all starts.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15I too used to live in the East Slope...
0:01:15 > 0:01:16- Hurray.- Go on!
0:01:16 > 0:01:18..as a Sussex graduate.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21But, of course, no favour given here.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23You are saying it's rowdy. When I was there, we were a studious lot.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27We used to go to poetry recitals, do some flower arranging.
0:01:27 > 0:01:28You mean it's changed?
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Yeah, it's changed a little bit since then.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36It's known for its parties and everyone having a really good time.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38You, obviously, are fans of our CJ over there,
0:01:38 > 0:01:40- adding De Mooi to the name. - Yeah.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42We all met at Sussex Uni.
0:01:42 > 0:01:48So we took our steady base to sprinkle some CJ magic on it.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50I see, plenty of that magic.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- East Slope De Mooi. - East Slope De Mooi. Fine name.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Let's see if you are fine quizzers.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Every day, there's £1,000 of cash up for grabs for our challengers.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:02:01 > 0:02:02the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06So, East Slope De Mooi, the Eggheads have won the last two games.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09That means £3,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads today.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12So, we will start with our first head-to-head.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14And this one is History.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16I don't know if you've got a player in mind
0:02:16 > 0:02:18but I think one of you lot studies that.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20- We've got a couple of history graduates.- Yes.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22What are we going to do?
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- You can always do politics.- It's got to be Shad.- Yeah, I'll go up.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28We'll take Shad on that one.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31All right, Shad. Now, choose any Eggheads you like. Will it be
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Mr De Mooi?
0:02:33 > 0:02:37- What do you reckon?- I think they're probably all good at history!
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- It's up to you.- Dave, then? - Yeah, Dave.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43That's a bold shout, bold move. We're going to take on Dave.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47Bold shout from Shad. He's going to play Dave at history.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50You know where to go, then. The Question Room for you both, please.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55OK, Shad, as we know, it's history and politics you're studying?
0:02:55 > 0:02:57- Yep, history and politics.- OK.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Tell me. Do you want to go first or second in this history round?
0:03:00 > 0:03:02Could I go first, please?
0:03:05 > 0:03:07Of course you can, Shad. Here's your first question.
0:03:07 > 0:03:13In 1930, what did around three million Britons hold licences for?
0:03:17 > 0:03:20Er, I would guess, for radios.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22- Not cows?- No!
0:03:22 > 0:03:25- Er... That's the most unlikely, I reckon.- Indeed!
0:03:25 > 0:03:29Radios is the right answer. The radio licence.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Right, Shad off the mark there, that's a good one.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36And, Dave, the 1707 Acts of Union took place
0:03:36 > 0:03:39during the reign of which monarch?
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Right, have a look at this.
0:03:44 > 0:03:48Queen Anne, 1702 to 1714.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51So I believe that 1707 must be Queen Anne.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53That's correct. Anne.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55OK, second question, Shad.
0:03:55 > 0:04:00Which of these politicians served 11 terms as Prime Minister of France?
0:04:05 > 0:04:06Erm.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08This one's a bit more difficult than the last one.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13I would guess it's Briand, because,
0:04:13 > 0:04:16maybe, the French Government was the most unstable then
0:04:16 > 0:04:17when he was around.
0:04:17 > 0:04:22OK. Briand is the right answer. Well got there.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23What kind of era?
0:04:23 > 0:04:25- Early 20th century.- Early 20th.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29He was around for quite some time, around the turn of the century,
0:04:29 > 0:04:32right through until the end of the '20s.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36OK, Dave, your second question.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39In 30BC, following the Battle of Actium,
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Egypt became a province of which empire?
0:04:44 > 0:04:46I'll go Roman.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48OK.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50No need to add any more. That's the right answer.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52The Battle of Actium.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55And third question, both going really well. Shad.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57On its completion in 1931,
0:04:57 > 0:05:02the Empire State Building became the world's tallest skyscraper.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05A status it retained until early in which decade?
0:05:09 > 0:05:11This one's going to be more or less a guess from me.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14I don't think it's the 1980s because that's too late.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17I'll go with the 1960s.
0:05:17 > 0:05:18OK, 1960s.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Whichever one it is, it's a long time.
0:05:21 > 0:05:26Held the title of the world's tallest skyscraper until the 1970s.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Oh!
0:05:28 > 0:05:30OK, a chance, then, for Dave.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34Katanga was the name of a breakaway state that,
0:05:34 > 0:05:36in 1960, proclaimed itself separate
0:05:36 > 0:05:38from which newly independent country?
0:05:44 > 0:05:46I don't think it's Central African Republic,
0:05:46 > 0:05:48I don't think it's Burkina Faso. I think,
0:05:48 > 0:05:51if I remember rightly, it was the old Zaire,
0:05:51 > 0:05:52sorry, the new.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54It was Zaire at the time.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56So it would be Democratic Republic of Congo.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00Both of you on very good form.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03Shad, just slipping up there on the Empire State Building.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06But Dave maintaining the form to get the right answer,
0:06:06 > 0:06:07and through to the final round.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Bad luck, Shad.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12We could tell you had a lot of knowledge on the subject.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14But Dave has just nudged you out.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16It means you won't be in the final round.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Tremendous knowledge on display by both players.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24But Dave,
0:06:24 > 0:06:27living up to the nickname, having just a little more there means
0:06:27 > 0:06:30East Slope De Mooi have lost one brain from the round,
0:06:30 > 0:06:31the Eggheads are all there,
0:06:31 > 0:06:35but only one round gone, so let's play our second one today.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37This subject is Arts & Books.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Who'd like to play this on East Slope De Mooi?
0:06:39 > 0:06:42- Tricky one for us, wasn't it?- Yeah. - So, who?
0:06:42 > 0:06:46- I think, Claire, you should do it. - OK, I will do it.- Go on.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49- We're going to send up Claire for this one.- All right, Claire.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52And who would you like to choose from the Eggheads to play against?
0:06:52 > 0:06:56- Er... Pat?- Yeah.- Take on Pat? - OK, yeah.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58- Pat?- We're going to take on Pat, yeah.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Claire, from East Slope De Mooi, Pat from the Eggheads,
0:07:00 > 0:07:04to play Arts & Books. Into the Question Room, both of you, please.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08So, Claire, Arts & Books. You're a law student.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Are you doing a law conversion course?
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Did you do English Literature as a primary degree?
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Or is it a law degree to start with?
0:07:15 > 0:07:18A roundabout way of saying, what's your interest in Arts & Books?
0:07:18 > 0:07:23Well, I am doing a law conversion. I actually did anthropology before.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27My interest in Arts & Books is, I guess,
0:07:27 > 0:07:29I was the one in the team most interested.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32I see, almost by default, then.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35OK, Claire, would you like to go first or second?
0:07:35 > 0:07:37I think I'll go first, thank you.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42OK, Claire, first question.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Which of these is one of Chaucer's Canterbury tales?
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Erm, well, not really the ones I recognise.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58I'm going to go for The Canon's Yeoman's Tale.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02I think, I'm sure I've read The Assistant Referee's Tale!
0:08:03 > 0:08:06On the road to Canterbury.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08What a great set of choices there.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11The Canon's Yeoman's Tale is right. Good start, Claire.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Nice one, Claire.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16And, Pat, Laugharne, in Carmarthenshire,
0:08:16 > 0:08:19is the final resting place of which famous poet?
0:08:22 > 0:08:25I think Burns is buried in Ayrshire.
0:08:25 > 0:08:30Seamus Heaney is buried in Bellaghy in County Londonderry.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Dylan Thomas, I think, had a converted boathouse in Laugharne
0:08:33 > 0:08:36where he lived for years, and that's where he's buried. So, Dylan Thomas.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Yep, Dylan Thomas is the right answer. Good start for you both.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Claire.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45In A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens,
0:08:45 > 0:08:49Scrooge is shown the Fezziwig family by the ghost of what?
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Erm, I think it's the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01OK, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05It was by the Ghost of Christmas Past.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Christmas Past, not Christmas Yet to Come.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10So, a chance for Pat.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Pat, Ford Madox Ford's novel, The Good Soldier,
0:09:13 > 0:09:15is set just before which conflict?
0:09:19 > 0:09:22My first feeling is that it's World War I.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24I don't think it's got anything to do with the Vietnam War.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26I think he was an English writer.
0:09:26 > 0:09:31The Second Boer War is around the turn of the century.
0:09:31 > 0:09:37Erm... No, I think it's set in the shadow of World War I.
0:09:37 > 0:09:38World War I, you've got it.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42Claire, back to you, you need to get this.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46Of which painter did the artist Paul Cezanne famously say,
0:09:46 > 0:09:49"Only an eye, but, my God, what an eye!"
0:09:52 > 0:09:56Erm, I think, because...
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Er... I think it's Monet,
0:09:58 > 0:10:00- Claude Monet.- OK.
0:10:00 > 0:10:01Monet is correct.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Yes, you have the two.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06But you've got that problem with your middle one,
0:10:06 > 0:10:09which gives this chance to Pat.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Allan Breck Stewart, a political rebel,
0:10:12 > 0:10:14is one of the central characters in which the novel
0:10:14 > 0:10:16by Robert Louis Stevenson?
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Kidnapped is his most famous novel.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25I don't know anything about Prince Otto.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27I think he wrote The Master of Ballantrae,
0:10:27 > 0:10:30perhaps he wrote Prince Otto.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34I'm reduced to something of a punt here.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37- I'll go for The Master of Ballantrae. - The Master of Ballantrae.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40It's not, Pat, it's incorrect.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42It's Kidnapped.
0:10:42 > 0:10:43Kidnapped.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45So, well...
0:10:45 > 0:10:47There we are, it's all square, Claire.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49You're still very much in it.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51But we go to Sudden Death, and take away the options,
0:10:51 > 0:10:55because you're all square after three questions each.
0:10:55 > 0:10:56And here's yours.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59The plot of which 19th-century Russian novel
0:10:59 > 0:11:03is set in motion by the murder of a pawnbroker named
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Alyona Ivanovna?
0:11:05 > 0:11:06DERMOT LAUGHS
0:11:06 > 0:11:09I-V-A-N-O-V-N-A.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Alyona Ivanovna?
0:11:11 > 0:11:13Well, we were actually talking about this earlier today.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16That's Crime and Punishment, by Dostoevsky.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Ah! Thank you for getting me off the hook. How would you say it?
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Alyona Ivanov...?
0:11:22 > 0:11:25- It's... Ivanovna. - DERMOT LAUGHS
0:11:25 > 0:11:26I'm not good at that.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29It's Crime and Punishment, it's the right answer, well done.
0:11:31 > 0:11:36So, Pat, Reginald Front-De-Boeuf and Isaac of York are characters
0:11:36 > 0:11:39in which novel by Sir Walter Scott?
0:11:39 > 0:11:43Isaac of York is in England, so perhaps it's one of his books
0:11:43 > 0:11:47which is set south of the border.
0:11:47 > 0:11:48He was very prolific.
0:11:48 > 0:11:56Ivanhoe and Kenilworth are two plausible ones.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58I'll go for Ivanhoe.
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Ivanhoe is correct
0:12:01 > 0:12:02OK, Claire.
0:12:02 > 0:12:07For what does the letter S stand in the name of the painter LS Lowry?
0:12:08 > 0:12:09Erm.
0:12:09 > 0:12:14That's, in a way, I feel like I knew this once. Erm.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18But I'm just going to have to say Stephen?
0:12:18 > 0:12:19GENTLE LAUGHTER
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- It is Stephen. - Yes, come on, Claire!
0:12:22 > 0:12:24- And what's the L for, Eggheads? - Laurence.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28Laurence Stephen, LS Lowry. Well done, Claire.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Pat needs this to keep the round alive.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33So, Pat, a trilogy of novels by David Peace,
0:12:33 > 0:12:36the first volume of which was published in 2007,
0:12:36 > 0:12:41features the aftermath of World War II in which Asian city?
0:12:42 > 0:12:43I'm in trouble here.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45I can't remember his book.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49I've a very faint bell saying Tokyo.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52But it's very, very tenuous.
0:12:52 > 0:12:53I'll say Tokyo.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Tokyo is right. Yes.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58So, it's another pair of questions. Claire.
0:12:58 > 0:13:03Rubens' The Raising of the Cross, completed in 1610,
0:13:03 > 0:13:08is on view in the Cathedral of our Lady in which city?
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Um! Again, this is a bit of a guess. Well, it's a complete guess.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16Erm... I'm going to say maybe somewhere in Spain.
0:13:18 > 0:13:22Um...I don't really know, so I'm just going to say Madrid.
0:13:22 > 0:13:23Madrid?
0:13:23 > 0:13:25No, not Madrid. Pat, do you know?
0:13:25 > 0:13:27I'd guess it's somewhere like Antwerp.
0:13:27 > 0:13:28It is Antwerp.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31But you don't get a point for that, as we all know,
0:13:31 > 0:13:33just out of interest for that.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35This is a question that, if you get it right,
0:13:35 > 0:13:37you will progress into the final round.
0:13:37 > 0:13:41Pat, how many paintings make up the work known as A Rake's Progress
0:13:41 > 0:13:42by William Hogarth?
0:13:44 > 0:13:46I've seen this at various times.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49Lots of episodes, as he goes downhill rapidly.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Ends up in Bedlam.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54I think it's more than six.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57So it's between eight and 12.
0:13:57 > 0:14:03It's a narrative, a story, so he needs a few panels to tell his story.
0:14:03 > 0:14:04Is eight enough?
0:14:06 > 0:14:08I think I'll risk eight.
0:14:08 > 0:14:09OK.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11You said between eight and 12,
0:14:11 > 0:14:13you're at the lower end of your estimation.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16The number of paintings that make up the work of A Rake's Progress
0:14:16 > 0:14:17by Hogarth are...
0:14:17 > 0:14:21eight, it is the right answer, Pat. Just got it.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Which means you are in the final round, and Claire, you are not.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26But, Claire, what a performance.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28Up against the world quiz champion there.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Well played, you, but again no place in the final round.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:14:35 > 0:14:37You're clearly good enough to beat an Egghead,
0:14:37 > 0:14:39you just need a bit of luck to get through,
0:14:39 > 0:14:43which you haven't had so far. It means the Eggheads are 2-0 up,
0:14:43 > 0:14:45you've lost two brains from the final round,
0:14:45 > 0:14:47and they're all still there at the moment.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Round 3 today is Sport.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52So, who would like to play this from East Slope De Mooi?
0:14:52 > 0:14:53- Sport.- I'll...
0:14:53 > 0:14:56- Big sporty Tom.- Big sporty Tom.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Who do you think isn't big and sporty from the Eggheads?
0:14:59 > 0:15:01Dave and Pat have played,
0:15:01 > 0:15:03so you can't put their sporting knowledge to the test.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Judith, Kevin or CJ?
0:15:05 > 0:15:07I'll take Mr De Mooi, please.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Of course. East Slope De Mooi's Tom is representing you
0:15:10 > 0:15:12against CJ De Mooi.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Into the Question Room, both of you, please.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19So, big sporty Tom, do you want to go first or second?
0:15:19 > 0:15:23Erm, I'll let the big man go first, I'll let CJ go first, please.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30CJ, Ben Cohen represented England between 2000 and 2006
0:15:30 > 0:15:33in which sport?
0:15:35 > 0:15:38I've done some work with him for one of his charities,
0:15:38 > 0:15:40and he was a Rugby Union player.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43Indeed, yes, well done, Ben Cohen.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Not going to get that wrong then.
0:15:45 > 0:15:46OK, Tom.
0:15:46 > 0:15:51Candlepin and duckpin are variations of which sport?
0:15:53 > 0:15:57The pin aspect draws me towards bowling, I guess.
0:15:57 > 0:16:01But the duck also draws me to swimming.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04- I'm going to go down the middle with bowling.- OK, bowling.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07Duck wasn't enough to draw you to swimming.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Right answer, yep, bowling.
0:16:11 > 0:16:15CJ, in which decade was the name, Milk Race, first used for
0:16:15 > 0:16:17the cycling competition now known as the Tour of Britain?
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I was hoping you were going to use some decades
0:16:23 > 0:16:26slightly further spaced apart than that.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29I would have thought the '50s was too early.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30The '70s was its heyday.
0:16:30 > 0:16:35I would have thought the '60s was probably a little too early as well.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38I hope. I will try 1970s.
0:16:38 > 0:16:421970s for the Milk Race before it became the Tour of Britain.
0:16:42 > 0:16:46No, it's not. It is, other Eggheads?
0:16:46 > 0:16:49- I'd have gone for the- '50s. '50s, yeah, it is the earliest there,
0:16:49 > 0:16:50it's the 1950s.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54So, well, was that a good choice, Tom, putting CJ in?
0:16:54 > 0:16:57It will have proved to have been if you get this right.
0:16:57 > 0:17:01Tom, Audere est Facere, or To Dare Is To Do,
0:17:01 > 0:17:03is the motto of which Premier League football team?
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Um.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15I really don't know.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19I'm going to go with my friend, James Ranson's football team,
0:17:19 > 0:17:21and that's Chelsea.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26OK, going for Chelsea for Audere est Facere.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28It's not.
0:17:28 > 0:17:29Kevin?
0:17:29 > 0:17:31I think it might be Spurs.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33It is Tottenham Hotspur. OK.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37You didn't get that, Tom, so CJ's still well in it.
0:17:37 > 0:17:38CJ, third question.
0:17:38 > 0:17:43The 1973 boxing match known as the Battle of Broken Jaw was
0:17:43 > 0:17:47a rematch between Muhammad Ali and which of his previous opponents?
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Virtually no idea. But...
0:17:54 > 0:17:59I think Ken Norton died in 2013.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03And I think, reading something about how he'd actually beaten
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Muhammad Ali,
0:18:06 > 0:18:09so maybe he had a rematch with Ali,
0:18:09 > 0:18:12wanting his revenge or the title back?
0:18:12 > 0:18:15That's literally all I've got to go on. I really don't know.
0:18:15 > 0:18:16I will try Ken Norton.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20On such scraps of information do Eggheads thrive.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23It is the right answer. Ken Norton. CJ, there.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Read something, somewhere and, being an Egghead, it stuck.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Well, it now means, Tom, you must get this,
0:18:30 > 0:18:33to take us into Sudden Death.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Which racing driver from Northern Ireland won the 1982
0:18:36 > 0:18:41Formula 1 Detroit Grand Prix, despite starting 17th on the grid?
0:18:45 > 0:18:49I really don't follow F1 at all.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51and I'm not old enough to remember that.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54HE SIGHS HEAVILY
0:18:57 > 0:19:01I'm going to go down the left, Lance Macklin.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03OK, going for Lance Macklin.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07- It's John Watson.- Mm.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09- Bad luck, Tom. - TOM SIGHS
0:19:09 > 0:19:10There we are.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13It was looking rather rosy for you at one point,
0:19:13 > 0:19:16but it's turned a lot cloudier.
0:19:16 > 0:19:20CJ is through to the final round. No place for you, Tom.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Somehow, you seem to be slipping down that East Slope.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27I don't know how it's happening here.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30You've lost three brains, the Eggheads are all still there.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32So, here's your last chance coming up to knock one of them out.
0:19:32 > 0:19:37Film & Television, and we've got Patrick or Kes left.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39Film & TV.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Kes is a film studies student.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43- Kes it is. - This could be really embarrassing.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46Kes, are you named after your parents' favourite film?
0:19:46 > 0:19:48- I don't know. - THEY ALL LAUGH
0:19:48 > 0:19:51Who would you like to play from the Eggheads?
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Pat, Dave and CJ have played, so you've got Judith or Kevin?
0:19:53 > 0:19:56We could try... Could try Kevin. It's up to you.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59It would be good if you won this...
0:19:59 > 0:20:02- Yeah, go for it. - OK. I'll take Kevin.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Right, OK, it should be a good battle.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06You're a film student, against a film buff.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08He knows a lot about many other things,
0:20:08 > 0:20:10but one of his favourite subjects as well.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13So, Kes and Kevin, go to the Question Room, please.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Kes, we talked about you being a film student,
0:20:16 > 0:20:20but you've got the television side of this round to deal with.
0:20:20 > 0:20:21Do you watch much TV?
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Erm, not really, apart from Eggheads, no.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27- Pat always makes me watch Eggheads. - You little liar!
0:20:27 > 0:20:32- I don't watch that much on my own. - Flattery gets you everywhere.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34Right, do you want to go first or second?
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Erm, I'll just go first, thank you.
0:20:39 > 0:20:40Best of luck, Kes, here you go.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44Who played the title character in the 1999 film,
0:20:44 > 0:20:46The Talented Mr Ripley?
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Um, I'm pretty sure it wasn't Arnie.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56I'm going to go for Matt Damon, please.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Yes, you're right, Matt Damon.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Arnie would have been interesting in the role.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Kevin, Emily Maitliss has been a regular presenter
0:21:05 > 0:21:07of which of these TV programmes?
0:21:11 > 0:21:13I think she's a presenter of Newsnight.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17I think she'd be great on the Bake Off, indeed any of those as well.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21Emily Maitliss, yes, presenter of Newsnight, that's correct.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27OK, Kes, in which US detective series did a pair of Dobermans
0:21:27 > 0:21:30named Zeus and Apollo regularly appear?
0:21:34 > 0:21:35Erm...
0:21:35 > 0:21:39I don't think I've actually ever watched any of these.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42I'm just going to guess...
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Columbo?
0:21:44 > 0:21:48OK, Columbo, with two Dobermans named Zeus and Apollo.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50It's incorrect, Kes.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53You'll know, Dave, you always know these things.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54- Yeah, it's Magnum, PI. - DERMOT GIGGLES
0:21:54 > 0:21:58How much rubbish TV do you know?
0:21:58 > 0:22:00It was that time, it was the '80s, before I could go to the pub.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02THEY ALL LAUGH
0:22:02 > 0:22:05Of course, now, on the channels somewhere,
0:22:05 > 0:22:07you can always pick up on them again. Magnum, PI, Kes.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Magnum, PI.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11OK, your second question, Kevin.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13In the first two Bridget Jones movies,
0:22:13 > 0:22:15who plays the title character's father?
0:22:19 > 0:22:22Um... I did see them, of course, it was when they came out
0:22:22 > 0:22:24so it's a while back.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26But I'm pretty sure that was Jim Broadbent.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Yes, it was.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Jim Broadbent is Bridget Jones's father.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- So, you need to get this, Kes. - Come on, Kes.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36In which year was the BBC television news and current affairs programme
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Nationwide first broadcast?
0:22:44 > 0:22:45Um...
0:22:45 > 0:22:47I have absolutely no idea. Again.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Um...
0:22:50 > 0:22:521949?
0:22:53 > 0:22:55OK, 1949...
0:22:55 > 0:22:57is the wrong answer.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59It's 1969.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00So, bad luck, Kes, there.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02We talked all about film, and you got two TV questions
0:23:02 > 0:23:05which were kind of slightly generational as well,
0:23:05 > 0:23:06well before your time.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Means you won't be in the final round -
0:23:08 > 0:23:10would you both please come back and join your teams?
0:23:12 > 0:23:14And this is what we've been playing towards.
0:23:14 > 0:23:15It's time for the final round,
0:23:15 > 0:23:17which as always is General Knowledge.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20But I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:23:20 > 0:23:22won't be allowed to take part in this round,
0:23:22 > 0:23:25so Shad, Claire, Kes and Tom from East Slope De Mooi,
0:23:25 > 0:23:27please leave the studio now.
0:23:28 > 0:23:32And so Patrick, you're playing to win East Slope De Mooi £3,000.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Judith, Pat, Dave, Kevin and CJ,
0:23:34 > 0:23:37you are playing for something which money cannot buy.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39The Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42So, as usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44This time the questions are all general knowledge
0:23:44 > 0:23:46and you are allowed to confer.
0:23:46 > 0:23:47So, Patrick, the question is,
0:23:47 > 0:23:50is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?
0:23:50 > 0:23:53And Patrick, again you get to choose, as the challenger -
0:23:53 > 0:23:55do you want to go first or second?
0:23:55 > 0:23:57I'll go first, please, Dermot.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Best of luck, Patrick. Here's your first question.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06The Charleston is a dance that became popular in which decade?
0:24:11 > 0:24:13I've never heard of the Charleston.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Which kind of suggests to me that you might've heard of it
0:24:16 > 0:24:18if it was in the 1970s.
0:24:18 > 0:24:19Maybe - like the doo-wop...
0:24:19 > 0:24:20something.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22The 1920s...
0:24:22 > 0:24:25I'm trying to place...
0:24:25 > 0:24:27somebody that would have been around in that era
0:24:27 > 0:24:29that might've been called something Charleston
0:24:29 > 0:24:30who danced...
0:24:31 > 0:24:34..in a funny way, but I can't think of anybody.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36So I'm going to go with 1850s.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Kind of based on that.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40OK.
0:24:40 > 0:24:41It's not the right answer,
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Patrick, it was the 1920s.
0:24:43 > 0:24:451920s for the Charleston.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47Eggheads, your first question.
0:24:47 > 0:24:48See what happens with this one.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50According to the common phrase,
0:24:50 > 0:24:54someone who is incompetent at something can't do it for....what?
0:24:57 > 0:24:58ALL: Toffee.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Toffee - toffee, can't do it for toffee.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04Can't do it for toffee. It is the right answer.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08So, I suspect you need this one, Patrick, if you're to have a chance.
0:25:08 > 0:25:13In the US, what does a pink slip given to an employee mean?
0:25:17 > 0:25:19Pink slip... It does ring a bell.
0:25:19 > 0:25:23And I think that I've only heard it in kind of negative connotations...
0:25:24 > 0:25:26So I'm going to go with dismissal, Dermot.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28OK, dismissal for the pink slip.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Yeah, we've heard it in films, haven't we? Hear it quite a lot.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33It is the right answer, dismissal, well done.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35You are on the board.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Hoping for the Eggheads to get one of the next two wrong, though.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41So, Eggheads, in English, the name of the computer language
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Prolog is an abbreviation of which phrase?
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Ah.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55HE REPEATS THE CHOICES
0:25:55 > 0:25:59- It can't be logistics. - Not logistics.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01No, not the first one.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Or logarithmic, why would it be that?
0:26:03 > 0:26:05The third one doesn't really make a great deal of sense.
0:26:05 > 0:26:06Programming in Logic...
0:26:06 > 0:26:08Programming in Logic sounds right...
0:26:08 > 0:26:10OK, yeah.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12So, Programming in Logic?
0:26:12 > 0:26:14- Sounds right.- I can't say it.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18Um...we think that is Programming in Logic.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22OK, Programming in Logic for Prolog.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24They all would fit, wouldn't they?
0:26:24 > 0:26:27It is the right answer, though, Eggheads, you've got it.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29Programming in Logic -
0:26:29 > 0:26:31which means, Patrick, well,
0:26:31 > 0:26:35you came back there with the second one, you just get this.
0:26:35 > 0:26:40Which pop group were the stars of the 1960s musical comedy film
0:26:40 > 0:26:41The Ghost Goes Gear?
0:26:46 > 0:26:47Um, I've never...
0:26:47 > 0:26:49heard of it.
0:26:49 > 0:26:50But...
0:26:50 > 0:26:52I don't think it was the Kinks,
0:26:52 > 0:26:54only because I know a little bit more about them.
0:26:55 > 0:27:01Um, and Herman's Hermits is quite a comical name...
0:27:01 > 0:27:04so maybe they'd be in a comedy film...
0:27:04 > 0:27:07Um, Spencer Davis Group, I just don't know anything about.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13I guess I'll go down the middle. Herman's Hermits.
0:27:13 > 0:27:17OK, Herman's Hermits for The Ghost Goes Gear.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19What a wacky '60s name that was.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21What do you think, Eggheads?
0:27:21 > 0:27:23I was thinking the Kinks, but...
0:27:23 > 0:27:25I would've gone Herman's Hermits, but...
0:27:25 > 0:27:26OK.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Well, it is...
0:27:28 > 0:27:30The Spencer Davis Group, I'm afraid.
0:27:30 > 0:27:31Oh!
0:27:31 > 0:27:32Bad luck, Patrick.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34It means, Eggheads, you've won!
0:27:40 > 0:27:41Well, bad luck, Patrick.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44As I say, a lot of student teams like you come along and say,
0:27:44 > 0:27:46you know, it's a question about Henry VIII and things,
0:27:46 > 0:27:49"It's before my time" - it's before the Eggheads' time!
0:27:49 > 0:27:52But you know, you got a lot of '60s, '70s and even 1920s questions
0:27:52 > 0:27:56that were quite dependent on the generation you were brought up in,
0:27:56 > 0:27:58so, bad luck. Good performances in those head-to-heads -
0:27:58 > 0:28:01I don't think the balance of power in the final round
0:28:01 > 0:28:03really reflected that. Some really good attempts.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06Came here and gave it a go - but it wasn't to be on the day.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09And as a former resident of East Slope, as I said,
0:28:09 > 0:28:12and a Sussex graduate, let my experience be a warning to you.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Look what happens - you could end up being the presenter of Eggheads.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17So, be careful!
0:28:17 > 0:28:20Thank you very much indeed for playing the Eggheads today.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22They have done what comes naturally to them,
0:28:22 > 0:28:24and they still reign supreme over Quizland.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27I'm afraid you won't be going home with the £3,000.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30That means the money rolls over to our next show.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33So, join us next time to see if a new team of challengers
0:28:33 > 0:28:35have the brains to defeat the Eggheads.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38£4,000 says they don't. Until then, goodbye.
