0:00:04 > 0:00:08'These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11'Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15'arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20'The 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 > 0:00:32They are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35Taking on the awesome might of our quiz Goliaths today
0:00:35 > 0:00:38are the Critical Thinkers from Nottingham.
0:00:38 > 0:00:42This team all work together in the surgical high dependency unit
0:00:42 > 0:00:44at Queen's Medical Centre. Let's meet them.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48Hello, I'm Mick. I'm 48, and I'm a healthcare assistant.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51Hello, I'm Jessica. I'm 28 and I'm a nurse.
0:00:51 > 0:00:56Hello, my name's Paul. I'm 40 and I'm a critical care nurse.
0:00:56 > 0:01:00Hi, I'm Wendy, I'm 51 and I'm a healthcare assistant.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Hi, I'm Matt. I'm 32 and I'm a staff nurse.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Welcome to you, Critical Thinkers. Are you thinkers?
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Have you quizzed a lot before this?
0:01:08 > 0:01:11- No, we've never quizzed together actually.- Eek.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13It all started out a few months back.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15We all went for a drink, as you do,
0:01:15 > 0:01:19and, er, it was my idea, shall we all go on Eggheads, get a team together?
0:01:19 > 0:01:21Quite a few said, "Yeah, let's get together, yeah."
0:01:21 > 0:01:24The next shift, "No, no, no."
0:01:24 > 0:01:27So I just put five application forms out in the staff room,
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- and this is the end product. - And this is the end result.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32So how have you prepared then?
0:01:33 > 0:01:35THEY LAUGH
0:01:36 > 0:01:40- Bit like the Eggheads, really. - We've quizzed in our breaks.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43Yeah, quizzing in the breaks, OK. Well, let's put that to the test.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46All different approaches can prove to be successful
0:01:46 > 0:01:47against the Eggheads
0:01:47 > 0:01:50because every day there's £1,000 worth of cash up for grabs
0:01:50 > 0:01:51for our challengers.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:01:53 > 0:01:55the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58So, Critical Thinkers, the challengers won the last game,
0:01:58 > 0:01:59proving it can be done,
0:01:59 > 0:02:01and it means £1,000 says
0:02:01 > 0:02:02you can't beat the Eggheads today.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05So, let's start with our first head-to-head battle,
0:02:05 > 0:02:08and this is Film and Television, so who wants to take this on?
0:02:08 > 0:02:11- Film and TV.- That's Wendy. - That'll be you, Wendy, yeah.
0:02:11 > 0:02:12That'll be Wendy.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15All right, Wendy, and choose any Egghead you like.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17- I'll choose CJ.- OK.
0:02:17 > 0:02:21To kick us off, let's have Wendy and CJ into the question room please.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24That's to make sure you can't confer, Wendy.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27OK, Wendy, playing Film and Television.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Do you enjoy films and TV?
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Yeah, more TV than film,
0:02:32 > 0:02:36but I'm hoping the majority of questions will be on TV.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Well, here's hoping. Choose a set for me.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40D'you want to go first or second?
0:02:40 > 0:02:41Er, I'll go first.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47OK, best of luck, Wendy, here is your first question.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51Which comedian played Moz in over 50 episodes of
0:02:51 > 0:02:54the television comedy show Ideal?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Which comedian played Moz in over 50 episodes of
0:03:00 > 0:03:03the TV comedy show Ideal?
0:03:03 > 0:03:07Erm, I'm not really sure about this one cos I've not seen it.
0:03:07 > 0:03:12Erm, I know Vic Reeves did quite a lot with, erm, Bob Mortimer,
0:03:12 > 0:03:15and Paul Whitehouse was in The Fast Show.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18So I'm going to go with Johnny Vegas.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22Right to do so, it's the correct answer. Good start, Wendy.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25CJ, which TV series takes place in
0:03:25 > 0:03:28what has become known as the "tent of dreams?"
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Which TV series takes place in what's become known as
0:03:35 > 0:03:37the "tent of dreams?"
0:03:37 > 0:03:39I don't know this, I've never seen any of those shows,
0:03:39 > 0:03:42but I think The Great British Bake-Off is...
0:03:43 > 0:03:46..set or filmed in a tent, I think.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51Er, so on that basis I'll try The Great British Bake-Off.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53So you've never seen... Not even a smidgeon of any of those?
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- Not a second of any of them, no.- OK.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Well, it's the tent, then, did lead you to the right answer,
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Great British Bake-Off.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03OK, Wendy.
0:04:03 > 0:04:04Your second question.
0:04:04 > 0:04:09Which star of the TV series Mad Men played Emma Frost
0:04:09 > 0:04:12in the 2011 film X-Men: First Class?
0:04:16 > 0:04:20Which star of the TV series Mad Men played Emma Frost
0:04:20 > 0:04:23in the 2011 film X-Men: First Class?
0:04:23 > 0:04:28I've never seen either of those two, so it's going to be a complete guess.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33I'll go with Elisabeth Moss.
0:04:33 > 0:04:37OK, it's a kind of TV-film hybrid question, that one, isn't it?
0:04:37 > 0:04:40It's not Elisabeth Moss, it's not the right answer.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42- CJ, have you seen...? - Christina Hendricks.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44No, it's January Jones.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Oh, I had the wrong person, sorry.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48All right, your second question, CJ.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Which English actor was nominated for a Supporting Actor Oscar
0:04:52 > 0:04:56for his performance as Alfred P Doolittle in My Fair Lady?
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Which English actor was nominated for a Supporting Actor Oscar
0:05:04 > 0:05:08for his performance as Alfred P Doolittle in My Fair Lady?
0:05:08 > 0:05:11Well, Stanley Holloway I think was nominated for an Oscar
0:05:11 > 0:05:12and I think it was for My Fair Lady.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Whether it was for that role or not I don't know,
0:05:15 > 0:05:17but I'll go for Stanley Holloway.
0:05:17 > 0:05:18Stanley Holloway.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Get Me To The Church On Time.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22It's the right answer, yes, well done.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24OK, Wendy.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26You need to get this, then, your third question.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30In 2013, which actress took on the role of The Oracle
0:05:30 > 0:05:33in the TV series Atlantis?
0:05:37 > 0:05:41In 2013, which actress took on the role of The Oracle
0:05:41 > 0:05:43in the TV series Atlantis?
0:05:43 > 0:05:47I'm not doing very well with this, I've not seen that either.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Erm, so, on the basis that I know Juliet Stevenson and
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Miranda Richardson, I'll go with the one I don't know, Lesley Manville.
0:05:54 > 0:05:59OK, right, Lesley Manville you think, er, in Atlantis.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Have you seen that, CJ?
0:06:01 > 0:06:04I haven't but I've got a nagging feeling it's Juliet Stevenson.
0:06:04 > 0:06:08Yeah, it's Juliet Stevenson. Bad luck, Wendy.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11- Those really didn't fall well for you, did they?- No.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13A bit more to the TV side,
0:06:13 > 0:06:16but so much television out there these days, and, er,
0:06:16 > 0:06:19wasn't really familiar with Atlantis or indeed Mad Men.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22So it means, CJ, you are through to the final round.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23No place for you, Wendy.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27Would you both come back and join your teams please?
0:06:27 > 0:06:29As it stands after that round, the Critical Thinkers have lost
0:06:29 > 0:06:33one brain from the final round, the Eggheads are all still there.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36So let's play our next head-to-head, and this one's Arts and Books.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Who'd like to play this from the Critical Thinkers?
0:06:38 > 0:06:39You, Jess?
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- It's not me. Not me.- Jess.- Me?
0:06:44 > 0:06:47So, Jessica, who would you like to play from the Eggheads?
0:06:47 > 0:06:50- CJ's played, but any of the other four are available?- Who do you want?
0:06:50 > 0:06:53- Ooh! Barry?- Barry, then.- Why not? - She's made a decision, Barry.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57You're relaxed whoever turns up. OK, it's going to be Barry.
0:06:57 > 0:07:01Let's have Jessica and Barry into the question room please.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04So, Jessica, another rather hybrid category.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07D'you prefer the arts side of this or the literature,
0:07:07 > 0:07:11- or hopefully both?- Hopefully both but probably books more than art.
0:07:11 > 0:07:12But we'll see what happens.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15We will, and choose for me, d'you want to go first or second?
0:07:15 > 0:07:17I'll go first please, Dermot.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21OK, first question for you, Jessica.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25Which publishing company released a popular series of children's books
0:07:25 > 0:07:27called Read It Yourself?
0:07:31 > 0:07:35Which publishing company released a popular series of children's books
0:07:35 > 0:07:36called Read It Yourself?
0:07:36 > 0:07:40Because it's Read It Yourself, it would suggest it's children's,
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Ladybird is associated with children's books
0:07:43 > 0:07:44so I'm going to go Ladybird.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Good analysis, right answer too. Well done, Jessica, good start.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53OK, Barry, in the works by JM Barrie,
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Peter Pan is the leader of which gang?
0:07:58 > 0:08:02In the works by JM Barrie, Peter Pan is the leader of which gang?
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Er, it could be all of them, really,
0:08:04 > 0:08:07but I believe Peter Pan was the leader of the Lost Boys.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09OK, JM Barrie, a question to Barry.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12What's your gang called, the Quiz Boys?
0:08:12 > 0:08:13The Outlaws.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Ah, yes, OK.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18JM Barrie, yes, Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, right answer.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24OK, Jessica. Whose 2013 autobiography is called
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Bonkers: My Life In Laughs?
0:08:31 > 0:08:37Whose 2013 autobiography is called Bonkers: My Life In Laughs?
0:08:37 > 0:08:40Again not sure on this one. I've not heard of it.
0:08:40 > 0:08:45Erm, I have heard of Jennifer Saunders and Victoria Wood.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Which one's likely to have written something called Bonkers?
0:08:48 > 0:08:52Maybe Victoria Wood? Go down the middle?
0:08:52 > 0:08:55OK, Victoria Wood for Bonkers: My Life In Laughs,
0:08:55 > 0:08:56they're both very funny
0:08:56 > 0:08:58and, er, could have been either.
0:08:58 > 0:08:59But it's Jennifer Saunders.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Jennifer Saunders, My Life In Laughs.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04OK, Barry.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06What is the occupation of Henry Hobson,
0:09:06 > 0:09:10a lead character in the play Hobson's Choice by Harold Brighouse?
0:09:13 > 0:09:15What is the occupation of Henry Hobson,
0:09:15 > 0:09:19a lead character in the play Hobson's Choice by Harold Brighouse?
0:09:19 > 0:09:21I believe he was a cobbler.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24A cobbler is the right answer, Barry.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28All right, Jessica, you need to get this one, your third question.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30The work St George and the Dragon,
0:09:30 > 0:09:34which was bought by the National Gallery in 1959,
0:09:34 > 0:09:39was painted in the 15th century by which Italian artist?
0:09:43 > 0:09:45The work St George and the Dragon,
0:09:45 > 0:09:47which was bought by the National Gallery in 1959,
0:09:47 > 0:09:51was painted in the 15th century by which Italian artist?
0:09:52 > 0:09:55Mm, again, not 100%.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58I have a feeling it's not Uccello,
0:09:58 > 0:10:02but then that could be completely wrong. Mm.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04I'm going to say Caravaggio.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05No reason why.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09All right, having a go with St George and the Dragon by Caravaggio.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Barry, do you know, is it Caravaggio?
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Well, Caravaggio's much too late.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17The other two are much of a muchness in time.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20But I would have gone for Paolo Uccello.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Which is the answer I was looking for, I'm afraid, Jessica.
0:10:22 > 0:10:27It is Paolo Uccello, which means we have to end the round now.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29There's Barry with his two on the board already.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32It means you won't be playing in the final round, Jessica.
0:10:32 > 0:10:37Would you come back, both of you, and join your teams please?
0:10:37 > 0:10:40OK, well, after that round, it means the Critical Thinkers have lost
0:10:40 > 0:10:43two brains from the final round, the Eggheads haven't lost any.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46So we move on to our third round today,
0:10:46 > 0:10:49and our next subject is Politics.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Who'd like to play this for the Critical Thinkers?
0:10:51 > 0:10:55- Mm-mm.- Mick, Paul or Matt.- I'll, erm...- Come on, Matt.- I'll do it.
0:10:55 > 0:10:56Yeah, I'll take this on.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59OK, Matt, now who would you like to play from the Eggheads?
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Barry and CJ of course have played,
0:11:01 > 0:11:05so you can go on down the line there with Chris, Judith or Pat.
0:11:05 > 0:11:06I'd like to take on Judith.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08All right, let's have Matt and Judith
0:11:08 > 0:11:12into the question room for this one please.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16So, Matt, if you win this round you might treat us to your party piece?
0:11:16 > 0:11:17No, I don't think so.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19What is it?
0:11:20 > 0:11:21Belly dancing.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23LAUGHTER
0:11:23 > 0:11:25I was put up to it by several of my colleagues.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29The two bosses were out with us on a staff night out, and they were
0:11:29 > 0:11:32supposed to get up and do a belly dance in a Greek restaurant.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35And, erm, I ended up doing it instead,
0:11:35 > 0:11:39with my brother-in-law, who knew nobody. So he was braver than I was.
0:11:39 > 0:11:44- OK. Did you have to wear the outfit? - No, thankfully.- Phew!
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Bit of a let-off there. OK, let's play the politics round then.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50- Would you like to go first or second?- I think I'll go first.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56Best of luck, Matt. Here's your question then.
0:11:56 > 0:11:57In April 2013,
0:11:57 > 0:12:03Enrico Letta was sworn in as prime minister of which European nation?
0:12:05 > 0:12:07In April 2013,
0:12:07 > 0:12:13Enrico Letta was sworn in as prime minister of which European nation?
0:12:13 > 0:12:15Enrico, I'll just spell the surname,
0:12:15 > 0:12:17L-E-T-T-A.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Enrico Letta.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22OK, I don't know who the prime minister is
0:12:22 > 0:12:23of any of those three countries.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27I know the Chancellor of Germany's Angela Merkel,
0:12:27 > 0:12:32and Italy are going through a bit of turmoil at the moment.
0:12:32 > 0:12:33I think...
0:12:33 > 0:12:37I think I'm going to go with Italy against my better judgment.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Well, it's good judgment cos it's the right answer. Well done.
0:12:40 > 0:12:44You have it. Enrico Letta, Prime Minister of Italy.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48So, Judith, the French Foreign Ministry is popularly known by
0:12:48 > 0:12:51the name of which street in Paris?
0:12:55 > 0:12:58The French Foreign Ministry is popularly known by
0:12:58 > 0:13:01the name of which street in Paris?
0:13:01 > 0:13:04I think that's the Quai d'Orsay.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Yes, it is. One apiece.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Matt, your second question.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Prior to the 2010 General Election,
0:13:11 > 0:13:15which of these was a phrase used by Conservative strategists to define
0:13:15 > 0:13:19a certain section of the demographic that they were targeting?
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Prior to the 2010 General Election,
0:13:27 > 0:13:31which of these was a phrase used by Conservative strategists to define
0:13:31 > 0:13:35a certain section of the demographic that they were targeting?
0:13:35 > 0:13:37I've not heard this phrase. Erm...
0:13:38 > 0:13:40I watch all three.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Erm, that doesn't really help me.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45I can't think that it'd be Holby City Woman.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Ohhh...
0:13:49 > 0:13:53I have no idea. I'm going to have to take a guess.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58I think they already appeal to Antiques Roadshow Woman.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01I think DIY SOS Woman is what I'm going to go with,
0:14:01 > 0:14:02it's probably wrong.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05OK, you're trying to think yourself into the mind of
0:14:05 > 0:14:07a Conservative strategist.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10- Erm, it is Holby City Woman.- Oh, OK.
0:14:10 > 0:14:14Holby City Woman, which, erm, you discounted to start with
0:14:14 > 0:14:17so we were always going to choose between the wrong answers there.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20So, Judith, your second one, how will you do with this?
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Gro Harlem Brundtland served three terms as
0:14:23 > 0:14:25prime minister of which country?
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Gro Harlem Brundtland served three terms as
0:14:30 > 0:14:33- prime minister of which country? - Can you spell all of that?
0:14:33 > 0:14:34G-R-O,
0:14:34 > 0:14:37H-A-R-L-E-M,
0:14:37 > 0:14:41B-R-U-N-D-T-L-A-N-D.
0:14:41 > 0:14:46Erm, I don't know. Very obscure prime ministers, all of these.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48Erm, I think it might be Norway.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53It is Norway, and, er, pretty famous.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55- Was he? Oh, dear...- She.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57Oh, sorry. There you are.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00OK, but Judith got it, so it means you need to get this, Matt.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04Which Australian politician infamously described an
0:15:04 > 0:15:07economic slump in the country in the 1990s as, quote unquote,
0:15:07 > 0:15:09"the recession we had to have?"
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Which Australian politician infamously described an
0:15:16 > 0:15:19economic slump in the country in the 1990s
0:15:19 > 0:15:23as "the recession we had to have"?
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Well, I've no idea.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29My best mate's Australian and he follows politics very closely.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33Erm, so, he's going to kill me for this.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35I'm going to have to guess with Tony Abbott.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37I think I've heard of Tony Abbott, so...
0:15:37 > 0:15:39OK, you've heard of Tony Abbott, yes,
0:15:39 > 0:15:44because Tony Abbott's more recent than the other two.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48So it's not Tony Abbott, we're talking about the 1990s.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51- Do you know, Judith? - Bob... Paul Keating?
0:15:51 > 0:15:52- Bob Keating, or...- No.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55- ..Paul Hawke.- Erm, either!
0:15:55 > 0:15:57No, Paul Keating.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59It's the one you said, it is Paul Keating, yes,
0:15:59 > 0:16:02Paul Keating described a slump in the '90s as
0:16:02 > 0:16:04"the recession we had to have".
0:16:04 > 0:16:08That has concluded your challenge, I'm afraid, Matt.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11- OK.- Judith is through to the final round.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14Would you both come back and join your teams please?
0:16:14 > 0:16:17The Critical Thinkers have now lost three brains from the final,
0:16:17 > 0:16:19the Eggheads haven't lost any, so let's change it, shall we?
0:16:19 > 0:16:23Let's get rid of at least one of them right here with a Music round.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26That's Mick or Paul to play it. Music.
0:16:26 > 0:16:27- I'll take Music.- That'll be Mick.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31Good man, Mick. Now you can choose from Chris or Pat.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34We've got a similar taste in music so I'll have Chris.
0:16:34 > 0:16:39All right, it's Mick and Chris, then, into the question room please.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Mick, you must enjoy a television quiz,
0:16:41 > 0:16:44you've done well on The Weakest Link, haven't you, in the past?
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Yeah, Anne Robinson was her normal charming self
0:16:46 > 0:16:50and asked why I didn't audition to be a Chuckle Brother instead.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53I think it's the mullet, but she didn't understand what a mullet was.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55- So you gave as good as you got. - Oh, yeah.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59- You had the last laugh, didn't you? - Yeah, I won it in the end.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02It was worth it. I've been called worse things.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05Good man. OK, well, the music round.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08- Would you like to go first or second?- I'll go first.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14OK, Mick, good luck, here you go.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17"Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with"
0:17:17 > 0:17:19is a line from which song by Prince?
0:17:23 > 0:17:26"Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with"
0:17:26 > 0:17:28is a line from which song by Prince?
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Ah, could be any of those, really.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Just trying to get it through me head.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37Going to discount Raspberry Beret.
0:17:37 > 0:17:38I'm going to go for Kiss.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43Kiss is the right answer, yes, well done.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48- Kind of more memorable now by Tom Jones, really, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Yeah, OK, Chris.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54In a Bob Dylan song, who is asked to "play a song for me"?
0:17:58 > 0:18:02In a Bob Dylan song, who's asked to "play a song for me"?
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Oh, great hippie stuff. It's Mr Tambourine Man.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08Yeah, Barry's playing his air tambourine right now.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12One of my all-time favourite songs, beautiful imagery in that song.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15It is the right answer, Mr Tambourine Man.
0:18:15 > 0:18:16OK, Mick, second question.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18In the musical Oliver,
0:18:18 > 0:18:21which character sings the song Where Is Love?
0:18:24 > 0:18:25In the musical Oliver,
0:18:25 > 0:18:28which character sings the song Where Is Love?
0:18:28 > 0:18:33I'm not so good on the musicals. I'm going to discount Oliver.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Go down the right-hand side and say Nancy on this one.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40OK, Nancy for Where Is Love?
0:18:40 > 0:18:42I'm afraid there were a few groans, Mick,
0:18:42 > 0:18:45when you discounted Oliver, for it is Oliver.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48Young Oliver singing Where Is Love?
0:18:48 > 0:18:50OK, Chris, your second question.
0:18:51 > 0:18:56In which century did Henry Steinway found his piano manufacturing company?
0:18:59 > 0:19:01In which century did Henry Steinway
0:19:01 > 0:19:03found his piano manufacturing company?
0:19:03 > 0:19:08Yeah, they were quite industrialised so it would be the 19th century.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11It's the right answer, yes. Right, alarm bells ringing
0:19:11 > 0:19:13for Mick. You need this, Mick.
0:19:13 > 0:19:19In which role is Simon Keenlyside a leading performer in classical music?
0:19:23 > 0:19:25In which role is Simon Keenlyside
0:19:25 > 0:19:28a leading performer in classical music?
0:19:28 > 0:19:31I've not got a clue on this one.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Never heard of him as an opera singer
0:19:34 > 0:19:36or a conductor, so I'll go for flautist.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39OK, flautist. Simon Keenlyside, have you heard of him, Chris?
0:19:39 > 0:19:42- Not heard of him, but that's what I'd go for.- Oh, OK.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44It's not the right answer. Other Egghead?
0:19:44 > 0:19:46He's an opera singer.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48He's an opera singer.
0:19:48 > 0:19:52Which means, well, the fat lady has sung, it closes down this round.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54It is the end of the round, means,
0:19:54 > 0:19:57Chris, you're going to be in the final round.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00You won't be there, Mick. Come back and join your teams.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Well, this is what we've been playing towards.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07Time for the final round, which, as always, is general Knowledge.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10But those of you who lost your head-to-heads
0:20:10 > 0:20:12aren't allowed to play in this round.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16So, Mick, Jessica, Wendy and Matt, all from The Critical Thinkers,
0:20:16 > 0:20:18would you leave the studio now, please?
0:20:18 > 0:20:23So, Paul, you're playing to win The Critical Thinkers £1,000.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25CJ, Barry, Chris, Judith and Pat,
0:20:25 > 0:20:28you are playing for something that money cannot buy -
0:20:28 > 0:20:30the Eggheads' reputation.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33As usual, I'll ask each team three questions in turn.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36The questions are all General Knowledge and you can confer.
0:20:36 > 0:20:37Paul, the question is,
0:20:37 > 0:20:40is your one brain better than the Eggheads' five?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43And, Paul, do you want to go first or second in this round?
0:20:43 > 0:20:47I think I'll follow the example of my team, Dermot, and go first, please.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51Very best of luck, Paul.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Your first question is this.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57The Antonine Wall, which ran across central Scotland
0:20:57 > 0:21:01was named after an emperor from which civilisation?
0:21:04 > 0:21:07The Antonine Wall, which ran across central Scotland
0:21:07 > 0:21:10was named after an emperor from which civilisation?
0:21:10 > 0:21:12Um...well...
0:21:12 > 0:21:17I must confess, I don't know a lot about the Antonine Wall.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21I've heard of Hadrian's Wall, which was certainly a Roman construction.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Um...
0:21:24 > 0:21:28I don't think the Greeks or the Egyptians had a great influence
0:21:28 > 0:21:34in our country, so I'm going to have to go with the Romans.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37Yes, the Greeks or the Egyptians, yes...
0:21:37 > 0:21:39not building walls in Scotland.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43It is the right answer, well done. Well worked out, Paul,
0:21:43 > 0:21:45because it's never easy on your own
0:21:45 > 0:21:47even with the wide spacing of those options.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Eggheads, tell us about the Antonine Wall,
0:21:50 > 0:21:51further north than Hadrian's Wall.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Does it predate it?
0:21:53 > 0:21:55- No, it's afterwards.- Afterwards. - I think it was built
0:21:55 > 0:21:59by Emperor Antoninus Pius who was a late-2nd-century emperor.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02So, there we are. OK, well identified, Paul, Roman
0:22:02 > 0:22:04and not Greek or Egyptian. So, Eggheads,
0:22:04 > 0:22:06your first question.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Lincoln is a shade of which colour,
0:22:08 > 0:22:11said to have been worn by Robin Hood?
0:22:13 > 0:22:15Lincoln is a shade of which colour,
0:22:15 > 0:22:17said to have been worn by Robin Hood?
0:22:17 > 0:22:20- Go for green.- That's green, Dermot.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Not turquoise?
0:22:21 > 0:22:25- Uh-huh.- Only in Men In Tights.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27It is green, Lincoln green, of course. OK.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Paul, your second question. Good start there.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Which of these words is used to mean
0:22:33 > 0:22:35an Italian Renaissance cathedral church?
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Which of these words is used to mean
0:22:40 > 0:22:43an Italian Renaissance cathedral church?
0:22:43 > 0:22:45Gosh, um...
0:22:45 > 0:22:49I think stiletto was a type of dagger.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53I think it was a weapon, so I don't think it's that.
0:22:53 > 0:22:58Rococo, I think, is a period of design.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59Um...
0:23:00 > 0:23:05I'm not 100% sure, but, best guess, I'm going to try duomo.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08OK. It's a very good guess cos it's the right answer.
0:23:08 > 0:23:09Well done, Paul.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11And where would you go in Italy,
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Eggheads, for a very famous duomo?
0:23:14 > 0:23:17- The most famous duomo is in Florence.- Florence.- Florence.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Oh, yes. Anyone tell me any more about the Duomo in Florence?
0:23:20 > 0:23:24The dome was the first to be built for a very long time.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26By Brunelleschi.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28- Oh.- And it was built out of brick,
0:23:28 > 0:23:31and for a couple of hundred years afterwards,
0:23:31 > 0:23:33nobody knew how he managed to do it.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36It's very striking, isn't it, almost shiny on the outside.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39It has two shells - an inner and an outer shell -
0:23:39 > 0:23:42very cleverly managed to construct platforms
0:23:42 > 0:23:46between them to build it up and I think it wasn't until
0:23:46 > 0:23:48the last part of the 20th century
0:23:48 > 0:23:51- that they figured out how he managed to do it.- Fascinating.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54OK, well, well done, Paul.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57You have two, Eggheads have one, second question for you, Eggheads.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01St Swithin was a Saxon bishop of which city?
0:24:04 > 0:24:07St Swithin was a Saxon bishop of which city?
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Patron saint of Winchester.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11- Winchester.- Definitely Winchester.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13That's Winchester, Dermot.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16You don't need Kevin to tell you that, it is Winchester.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19There's an interesting thing about St Swithin. His tomb was actually
0:24:19 > 0:24:23outside the cathedral because he was such a modest and humble man
0:24:23 > 0:24:26that he wanted people to walk over his tomb.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28- Oh, OK.- So there's not many saints
0:24:28 > 0:24:30- who had their tomb built outside their own cathedral.- No.
0:24:30 > 0:24:35- OK.- In the ground.- Right, we go to a third question apiece.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Paul, Alex Dowsett
0:24:37 > 0:24:41found fame as a leading British competitor in which sport?
0:24:43 > 0:24:47Alex Dowsett - D-O-W-S-E-T-T -
0:24:47 > 0:24:52Alex Dowsett found fame as a leading British competitor in which sport?
0:24:52 > 0:24:54Oh, dear. Um...
0:24:54 > 0:24:59Sport was the one category I hoped wouldn't come up.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01I've never heard of this gentleman.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04I have no interest in any of these sporting activities.
0:25:04 > 0:25:09Um, so this is going to have to be a complete guess, I'm afraid.
0:25:09 > 0:25:10Um...
0:25:12 > 0:25:16..cycling perhaps gets more coverage in the media, so...
0:25:16 > 0:25:19maybe if it was cycling, I may have heard him in passing.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22Let's go for...
0:25:22 > 0:25:23gymnastics.
0:25:23 > 0:25:27OK, gymnastics for Alex Dowsett. What would you say, Eggheads,
0:25:27 > 0:25:30- if it was your question?- I'd have guessed sailing.- Probably sailing.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33- I'm not confident at all.- OK, sailing, that's interesting.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35Sir Alex Dowsett...
0:25:36 > 0:25:39..is a cyclist.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41- Cyclist. - THEY MUMBLE
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Yes, well, and also, to add to
0:25:43 > 0:25:47considerable achievements, he also has to deal with haemophilia.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50- He's a haemophiliac as well. - When was he?
0:25:50 > 0:25:55- Right now.- Oh, really?- A current cyclist.- Why haven't I heard of him?
0:25:55 > 0:25:58All right, but a chance for the Eggheads.
0:25:58 > 0:26:04In which film did Frank Sinatra sing the Oscar-winning song All The Way?
0:26:08 > 0:26:12In which film did Frank Sinatra sing the Oscar-winning song All The Way?
0:26:12 > 0:26:16I thought The Man With The Golden Arm was about drug addiction.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18- Yeah, but he's a...- He's a musician.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20A trumpeter. Jazz.
0:26:20 > 0:26:24- Wouldn't be Ocean's- Eleven. There aren't any songs in that, are there?
0:26:24 > 0:26:28- Apart from the soundtrack.- There are songs in The Joker Is Wild, though.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30I don't know that film at all, I'm afraid.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32I don't know, no.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35He's a trumpet player in The Man With The Golden Arm.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38He's a criminal in Ocean's Eleven.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41Do we know anything at all about The Joker Is Wild?
0:26:41 > 0:26:43I know nothing about that film.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46- He's a card sharp.- But if The Joker Is Wild is to do
0:26:46 > 0:26:49- with gambling, you could relate that to...- Yes.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52..sticking with drug use or with bad luck, so, yeah...
0:26:52 > 0:26:57Barry, you've some recollection of songs in The Joker as well.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Well, I've some recollection that there are songs in it, but...
0:27:00 > 0:27:03- Have you seen it?- It's very vague. - Have you seen it?- No.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06I've only seen Ocean's Eleven.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08We're going to be guessing here.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11I would guess at The Joker Is Wild then.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Yes, that would be my gut feel.
0:27:13 > 0:27:17OK, if you've recollection of songs in that, I'm happy to go with that.
0:27:17 > 0:27:21There's no reason he couldn't do a trumpet solo, then sing the song.
0:27:21 > 0:27:26Well, it's definitely got music in it, that's why I'd go for it.
0:27:26 > 0:27:27Still, I mean...
0:27:28 > 0:27:31- Nobody really knows anything.- No.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34- They're not sure. - CJ: We don't know.
0:27:34 > 0:27:38We're at a loss here. We're going to go for The Joker Is Wild.
0:27:38 > 0:27:41We could judge from that conversation,
0:27:41 > 0:27:44having a guess at The Joker Is Wild.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48You think it's definitely not Ocean's Eleven, so choosing between
0:27:48 > 0:27:51The Man With The Golden Arm, where you say Sinatra played a trumpeter,
0:27:51 > 0:27:53wondering if he sang as well in that.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56Well, Eggheads, the answer is...
