0:00:04 > 0:00:08These people are amongst the greatest quiz players in Britain.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11Together they make up the Eggheads,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.
0:00:18 > 0:00:20The question is, can they be beaten?
0:00:23 > 0:00:24Welcome to Eggheads,
0:00:24 > 0:00:27the show where a team of five quiz challengers pit their wits against
0:00:27 > 0:00:32possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain, they are the Eggheads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34And taking on our quiz champions today
0:00:34 > 0:00:36are The Suspicious Minds.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39I don't think it takes a genius to work out what brings this lot
0:00:39 > 0:00:42together. All I will say is, Elvis has...
0:00:42 > 0:00:44ENTERED the building.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Let's meet them.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47My name's Mark, I'm 38 years old
0:00:47 > 0:00:49and I'm a professional Elvis tribute artist.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53Hi, my name's Neil. I'm 52 and I'm a full-time entertainer.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57Hi, I'm Martyn, AKA Elvis Shmelvis.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01I'm 51 years old and I'm a professional Elvis tribute artist.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Hello, my name is Paul. I'm 46, I'm a professional musician and artist.
0:01:05 > 0:01:06Hi, I'm Joel.
0:01:06 > 0:01:10I'm 31 years old and I'm an Elvis tribute artist and singer.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14Well, welcome to you, Suspicious Minds.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Very good to see you. As I said, no need to ask who you are
0:01:16 > 0:01:18or why you came with that team name.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21But first, can you kick us off, can you give us a bit of a song,
0:01:21 > 0:01:23something to remember the King by?
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Of course we can. Ready boys?
0:01:25 > 0:01:27# When no-one else can understand me
0:01:29 > 0:01:31# When everything I do is wrong
0:01:31 > 0:01:35# You give me hope and consolation
0:01:35 > 0:01:38# You give me strength to carry on
0:01:38 > 0:01:43# And you're always there to lend a hand
0:01:43 > 0:01:46# In everything I do
0:01:46 > 0:01:50- ALL:- # That's the wonder
0:01:50 > 0:01:55# The wonder of you-ou-ou-ou! #
0:01:55 > 0:01:56APPLAUSE
0:01:56 > 0:01:59AS ELVIS: Thank you very much. DERMOT LAUGHS
0:01:59 > 0:02:03Good on the "thank you very much". So how did you all meet?
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Well, we're all, as you can see, Elvis tribute artists,
0:02:06 > 0:02:09and occasionally a newspaper or somebody will get
0:02:09 > 0:02:11a group of Elvis tribute artists together,
0:02:11 > 0:02:13maybe to celebrate his 70th birthday or something like that.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17And we have kind of met at those kind of things.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- Lots of Elvis conventions and things?- There's Elvis conventions.
0:02:20 > 0:02:25And the other thing is, occasionally you'll get a booking for a gig that you yourself can't do,
0:02:25 > 0:02:27so it's good to have some friends that are of a good level,
0:02:27 > 0:02:29that you can pass the gig onto.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Absolutely. How many of you are there, do you think, in the UK?
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- Dozens, hundreds?- How many? Hundreds.- Thousands.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38- Well worldwide, 35,000 apparently. - What?! My goodness me.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40UK, probably a couple of thousand I should think.
0:02:40 > 0:02:41Judith, you must be delighted.
0:02:41 > 0:02:45- Elvis is your all-time favourite, isn't he?- He is. Absolutely.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48My favourite Elvis, I have to say, is pre-army.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51OK, pre-army. So, very, very young.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53- Yes.- With the swivelling hips.
0:02:53 > 0:02:54With the swivelling hips, exactly.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57And you can only film him from the hips up.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59OK, right, shall we play the game?
0:02:59 > 0:03:00I'm sure you're hoping for a music round.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02Let's see what comes up first.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Because every day there's £1,000 worth of cash
0:03:04 > 0:03:06up for grabs for all our challengers,
0:03:06 > 0:03:08however, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,
0:03:08 > 0:03:10the prize money rolls over to the next show.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13So, Suspicious Minds, the Eggheads have won the last game
0:03:13 > 0:03:17and it means £2,000 says you can't beat the Eggheads today.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20And our first head-to-head, not music, it's Geography.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Who'd like to play this one?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25- Geography, gents. - We've talked about it before.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28- Our travelling GI is the man for the job.- Looks like it's down to me.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30Of course, travelling GI.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Who would you like to play from the Eggheads?
0:03:33 > 0:03:35What do you say, Mark?
0:03:35 > 0:03:39- Shall we say Judith?- I think Judith might be worth a go, yeah.- OK.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41- Well...- Let's play Judith. - You'll make her day.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44You're the closest she'll get to her ideal Elvis.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Let's have Neil and Judith into the Question Room
0:03:46 > 0:03:48to play the opening round. It's Geography.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Neil, it's appropriate we've got you starting
0:03:52 > 0:03:55for The Suspicious Minds, because in your Elvis GI mode,
0:03:55 > 0:03:58of course, we record this in Glasgow
0:03:58 > 0:04:01and that's the only part of the UK
0:04:01 > 0:04:04- that Elvis ever got to, even momentarily, isn't it?- That's right.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07He momentarily landed at Prestwick Airport en route to
0:04:07 > 0:04:08Germany in 1958, I believe.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11And there's a little memorial there at the terminal
0:04:11 > 0:04:14if anyone's ever passing through Prestwick Airport.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Did he ever get any further, was that it? It was just a stopover?
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Yeah, they refuelled the plane
0:04:19 > 0:04:20and carried on, I think.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22And that was it. OK, let's play the round.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25It's Geography. Would you like to go first or second?
0:04:25 > 0:04:26I'll go first, please.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Best of luck, Neil. First question -
0:04:31 > 0:04:35in which part of the UK might you travel the Malt Whisky Trail?
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Well, I don't think whisky is made much in England or Wales,
0:04:41 > 0:04:42so I'm going to go for Scotland.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Yes, Scotland is the right answer.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Back to what we were discussing,
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Elvis should have gone on that, he should have stayed longer.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52OK, Judith, your first question,
0:04:52 > 0:04:56which of these African countries is located furthest north?
0:04:59 > 0:05:01I think that must be Morocco.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Up there on the Mediterranean.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05It's the right answer, yes, Morocco.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09So, Neil, back to you for a second question.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Where is the funicular railway known as the Peak Tram,
0:05:12 > 0:05:16designed by a Scottish engineer and known for its spectacular views?
0:05:20 > 0:05:24I've been on a funicular railway in Hong Kong.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27I know San Francisco is a very hilly city.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30But I don't remember seeing a funicular railway there.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35And I've not been to Naples... I'm going to go for Hong Kong.
0:05:35 > 0:05:36Hong Kong.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38You've got it, well done, Neil.
0:05:38 > 0:05:43- And did you go there as Elvis or as a civilian?- That was Elvis.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49All right, question two for you, Judith.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53Beyoglu is a popular tourist district in which of these cities?
0:05:57 > 0:05:59It's spelt a bit differently from how it sounds,
0:05:59 > 0:06:04it's B-E-Y-O-GL-U. Beyoglu.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07I think that, it doesn't sound Greek.
0:06:07 > 0:06:12I think it sounds Turkish, so I'm going to say Istanbul.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13It's the right answer.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Two apiece, and Neil, third question.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19How many miles separate the Caribbean
0:06:19 > 0:06:23and Pacific coast's of Panama at its narrowest point?
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Well, I know it's not very far.
0:06:31 > 0:06:32I'm going to rule out 71 miles,
0:06:32 > 0:06:35cos I don't think it's that far. There's a lake in the middle...
0:06:36 > 0:06:38..that joins the canal together.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43I'm going to say...
0:06:44 > 0:06:47- ..51 miles, Dermot.- OK, 51 miles.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50It's not 51, it is shorter. It is 31.
0:06:50 > 0:06:56The other one you were totting up on there. So, a chance for Judith.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Judith, in which US National Park would you find the peak
0:06:59 > 0:07:01known as Zabriskie Point?
0:07:05 > 0:07:08Oh, goodness! I don't know.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13I'm going to say Joshua Tree for some reason.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Zabriskie Point is in...
0:07:15 > 0:07:17- Death Valley.- Oh.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Bad luck. It's all square, but it's good for you, Neil.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23It means that we play on in the Sudden Death phase now.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26I'm going to remove those options, it's a lot harder,
0:07:26 > 0:07:29but we need to sort out a winner and here is your question.
0:07:29 > 0:07:34What is Australia's most populated city after Sydney?
0:07:34 > 0:07:35I've got two in my mind.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39I'm thinking it's either Perth or Melbourne.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42But then there's also Brisbane and Adelaide as well.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44I'm going to say Melbourne. Melbourne's my answer.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47It's the right answer, well done.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Judith,
0:07:49 > 0:07:53Lytham St Anne's is a resort in which English county?
0:07:54 > 0:07:56I think it's Lancashire.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59It is, yes. Lancashire.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- It's got a golf course. - It certainly does.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05And, Neil,
0:08:05 > 0:08:07the Vinales Valley,
0:08:07 > 0:08:11known for its crops, including tobacco, is on which island?
0:08:11 > 0:08:15I will spell said valley, V-I-N-A-L-E-S.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I'll take the clue from tobacco there.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23I've really got no idea, but, er...
0:08:25 > 0:08:26The only thing in my mind is Cuba.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30You've got it! Yeah, tobacco and island,
0:08:30 > 0:08:34put it together and got Cuba. Well done.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Judith,
0:08:36 > 0:08:39in which city is the Palazzo Fortuny,
0:08:39 > 0:08:45once the studio of the designer Mariano Fortuny, F-O-R-T-U-N-Y?
0:08:46 > 0:08:48I think that's in Venice.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52It is in Venice. You are both on good form.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54OK, Neil, another question.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57The Eastern European region of Galicia
0:08:57 > 0:09:00is divided between Poland and which other country?
0:09:02 > 0:09:06I guess I've got to choose from, it's either Germany or...
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Russia.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11Galicia, I think, is in Eastern Poland, so it's going to be Russia.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16It's not. There was another country to think of.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17It is Ukraine.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20OK, well, a chance for Judith, then.
0:09:20 > 0:09:25Flamengo and Botafogo are stations on the Metro system of which
0:09:25 > 0:09:27South American city?
0:09:27 > 0:09:30- Can you do Botafogo? - Botafogo.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32B-O-T-A-F-O-G-O.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Botafogo. F-O-G-O...
0:09:35 > 0:09:40I don't know which American cities have metros.
0:09:40 > 0:09:41But, um...
0:09:41 > 0:09:44What about Rio...de Janiero?
0:09:45 > 0:09:46Is the right answer.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50Yes, Rio de Janeiro with those metro stops.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Which means we've put a stop to your fine challenge, Neil.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55I'm afraid you won't be in the final round. Judith's there.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Would you both come back and join your teams.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02Well, after first exchanges, the Eggheads finally won.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05It means that one of the Suspicious Minds will be
0:10:05 > 0:10:07missing at least from the final round.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Let's play round two, Film & Television.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Who wants to play this from Suspicious Minds?
0:10:12 > 0:10:15I'm up for this if anyone else wants a go,
0:10:15 > 0:10:17but I'm quite happy to take it on.
0:10:17 > 0:10:18It's on you.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Yeah. Cool, I will go for this. - OK, Mark.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24And who would you like to play from the Eggheads, any of the men.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26I'd like the man with the sideburns, please.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28I'd like to take on our Chris. DERMOT LAUGHS
0:10:28 > 0:10:31They're not sideburns. I can't be bothered shaving in the morning.
0:10:31 > 0:10:32I thought you looked at Pat,
0:10:32 > 0:10:34but Pat's are joined up to his beard.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38OK, it's going to be Mark and Chris playing Film & Television.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42Into the Question Room, both of you.
0:10:42 > 0:10:46So, Mark, you once won the title of Great Britain's Best Elvis.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49That must have been competitive, how did it work?
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Well, originally they advertised it.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53They had about 150 applicants.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57From those, they had about 60 or so that they saw one afternoon,
0:10:57 > 0:10:58and we all sang our bits
0:10:58 > 0:11:01and they chose about a dozen from that, and we all performed
0:11:01 > 0:11:04in a big showcase event in front of 600 or 700 people.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Then they voted for their favourite.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09- Kind of X Factor for Elvises. - It was.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10And the great thing for me was that
0:11:10 > 0:11:12just after the competition had finished,
0:11:12 > 0:11:15the two guys that had organised it fell out with each other.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17And so, as Chris always used to say,
0:11:17 > 0:11:19I got to keep the title in perpetuity.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21LAUGHTER
0:11:21 > 0:11:24You are referring, of course, to International Mastermind.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26All right, so let's play the round.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Film & Television, would you like to go first or second, Mark?
0:11:29 > 0:11:30I think I'll go first, please.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36Good luck, Mark. First question,
0:11:36 > 0:11:40which EastEnders love rat made a return to the series
0:11:40 > 0:11:41in September 2013?
0:11:45 > 0:11:46Not a massive EastEnders fan,
0:11:46 > 0:11:49but Arthur Fowler was the older gentleman,
0:11:49 > 0:11:52if I remember rightly, who robbed the Christmas fund one year.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55So I think we can get rid of Arthur Fowler.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Archie Mitchell, I can't put a face to,
0:11:59 > 0:12:01but I know the Wicks...yeah,
0:12:01 > 0:12:03I'm going to go with David Wicks.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07Is the right answer, well worked out there.
0:12:07 > 0:12:08And, Chris,
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Harry Corbett was the creator of which teddy bear
0:12:11 > 0:12:15glove puppet, that has appeared on television since the 1950s?
0:12:18 > 0:12:19He didn't actually create him,
0:12:19 > 0:12:23he just bought him on Blackpool Prom one day for...to amuse his son.
0:12:23 > 0:12:24It was Sooty.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28That's an interesting bit of background. And it is Sooty.
0:12:28 > 0:12:29OK, Mark,
0:12:29 > 0:12:32which 1980s film features the line,
0:12:32 > 0:12:34"Don't push it or I will give you
0:12:34 > 0:12:37"a war you won't believe. "Let it go."?
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Well, I've seen Back To The Future and I can't imagine it.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47I'm sure there are people who love the film,
0:12:47 > 0:12:49they'll be screaming at the television now.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53But I can't imagine that line being in Back To The Future.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56I wouldn't say I'm a massive Star Wars buff, but once again...
0:12:57 > 0:13:00No, I am going to go with First Blood,
0:13:00 > 0:13:03which, if I remember rightly, was one of the first Rambo films.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Yes. Sly Stallone.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07In First Blood, it's the right answer, well done.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10OK, Chris, second question.
0:13:10 > 0:13:16Who played Juliet in the 1996 Baz Luhrmann film, Romeo And Juliet?
0:13:20 > 0:13:23There's been two or three lately, hasn't there?
0:13:24 > 0:13:28'96, Baz Luhrmann. That was Claire Danes.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30It was, Chris. Well done.
0:13:31 > 0:13:342-2, and so, back to you, Mark.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36What is the profession of Bryan Cranston's
0:13:36 > 0:13:41character before he turns to crime in the TV series Breaking Bad?
0:13:44 > 0:13:46I've not watched the programme,
0:13:46 > 0:13:48so it's only going to be an educated guess.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52But if I was going to write a drama about somebody who turned
0:13:52 > 0:13:57from one job to being a criminal, I think lawyer would make a good drama.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00OK, lawyer.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03It's not, though. No, they didn't go for that. Chris?
0:14:03 > 0:14:06- He was a teacher, wasn't he? - He was a teacher.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08OK, well, a chance for Chris, then.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12Chris, which of these Hollywood stars served in the Marines
0:14:12 > 0:14:15and was honourably discharged in 1950?
0:14:19 > 0:14:22I think the ex-marine there is James Garner.
0:14:22 > 0:14:27James Garner, honourably discharged, you think, by the Marines in 1950.
0:14:27 > 0:14:28No. Other Eggheads?
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Steve McQueen.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32- It's Steve McQueen.- Oh.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34OK, Steve McQueen, a let-off.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Right, you're still very much in it, Mark. Sudden death once again.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40Your question. In 2013,
0:14:40 > 0:14:44Hong Kong launched a major exhibition commemorating 40 years
0:14:44 > 0:14:48since the death of which martial arts film star?
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Um...
0:14:50 > 0:14:53I can only think of one deceased martial arts film star.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55Obviously, Elvis was very into his karate,
0:14:55 > 0:15:00but Ed Parker, his instructor, wasn't a film star per se.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02He used to be an adviser on a lot of films.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05I'm going to go with Bruce Lee.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08Correct answer, well done. Bruce Lee.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10OK, then.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14Chris, in 2010, who took on the role of Mrs Hudson
0:15:14 > 0:15:17in the BBC TV drama series Sherlock?
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Una Stubbs.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Yes! You got it.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25OK, Mark,
0:15:25 > 0:15:28Colonel Von Strohm, Captain Geering
0:15:28 > 0:15:34and General Von Klinkerhoffen were all characters in which BBC sitcom?
0:15:34 > 0:15:37COMEDY FRENCH ACCENT: Listen very carefully, I shall say zis only once.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39It was 'Allo, 'Allo.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Yes! Right answer! 'Allo 'Allo. Very good.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49Chris, in which 1994 film does Keanu Reeves' character
0:15:49 > 0:15:52attempt to prevent a bomb from blowing up a Los Angeles bus?
0:15:52 > 0:15:54A bus, it's got to be Speed, hasn't it?
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Yes, it's the right answer. On we go.
0:15:59 > 0:16:03Mark, who directed the 1957 film The Bridge On The River Kwai?
0:16:03 > 0:16:06I'm kind of hoping he directed it,
0:16:06 > 0:16:10I know he was in it and I've met him because he's a massive Chelsea fan,
0:16:10 > 0:16:12so I'm going to go for Sir Richard Attenborough.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Ah, Sir Richard Attenborough.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16It's not, in actual fact.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19It is David Lean. David Lean,
0:16:19 > 0:16:21one of his, so a chance for Chris.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25Which actor appeared as Francois the postman in his feature-length
0:16:25 > 0:16:29directorial debutant Jour de Fete?
0:16:29 > 0:16:30Jacques Tati.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Is the right answer.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37Which means, Chris, you'll be in the final round. No place for you, Mark.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Would you both come back and join your teams?
0:16:40 > 0:16:43As it stands, Suspicious Minds have lost two brains
0:16:43 > 0:16:45from the final round. The Eggheads are all still there.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Our next round is Arts & Books.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Who'd like to play this? Arts & Books.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52Arts & Books. I think Paul's our man for this, yeah.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54OK, Paul, and which Egghead would you like to choose?
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Judith and Chris aren't available. Any of the other three.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58I think I'll go for Dave.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02OK, let's have Paul and Dave into the Question Room, please.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06All right, Paul, better get on with it.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09- Would you like to go first or second?- I'll let Dave go first.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15Dave, lines of verse that rhyme in pairs are known as what?
0:17:19 > 0:17:21I think that's rhyming couplets.
0:17:21 > 0:17:22That's correct.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Paul, a tutu is traditionally worn by female performers
0:17:27 > 0:17:29of what style of dance?
0:17:32 > 0:17:34It's certainly not flamenco or country dancing,
0:17:34 > 0:17:36so I'll go for ballet.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Yes, right answer. Well done.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44And Dave, who announced a residency on the streets of New York in 2013?
0:17:48 > 0:17:52Well, the only one I've heard selling street paintings in New York
0:17:52 > 0:17:55is Banksy. That's my answer.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56Banksy is the right answer.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58And Paul,
0:17:58 > 0:18:00in the Harry Potter books,
0:18:00 > 0:18:03what type of creature is Hagrid's pet, Aragog?
0:18:06 > 0:18:09Unfortunately I've never read Harry Potter...
0:18:09 > 0:18:11I suspect it's not gorilla.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15I think that spider sounds more appropriate for
0:18:15 > 0:18:18the type of subject matter. I'll go with spider.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Good answer. It's the right one. Well done.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Dave, the four Martin brothers, Robert, Charles, Walter and Edwin,
0:18:27 > 0:18:30became well known for their work in which artistic field
0:18:30 > 0:18:31in the Victorian period?
0:18:35 > 0:18:38I've not got a clue about this...
0:18:38 > 0:18:40So I'm going to have a guess.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42I'll go with sculpture.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45OK, sculpture for the Martin brothers.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48It's incorrect. Other Eggheads?
0:18:48 > 0:18:50- Pottery?- It's pottery.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52So, right, a chance for
0:18:52 > 0:18:55one of the Elvises to get through here.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58Paul, which artist painted La Coiffure
0:18:58 > 0:19:01or Combing The Hair around 1896?
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Well, Pissarro was generally landscape,
0:19:09 > 0:19:13Manet, street scenes, society portraits.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17That would suggest the answer is Edgar Degas.
0:19:17 > 0:19:18You know your art.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21- You're through to the final round. It's correct. Well done.- Yes!
0:19:21 > 0:19:22Which means no place for you, Dave.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Would you both come back and join your teams?
0:19:26 > 0:19:28So, Dave, all shook up
0:19:28 > 0:19:31- after that storming performance by Paul.- Oh, absolutely!
0:19:31 > 0:19:34So the Eggheads have lost their first brain from the final round.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Suspicious Minds, of course, have already lost two.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40So our last head-to-head before the final round is Sport,
0:19:40 > 0:19:42and who'd like to play this from Martin or Joel?
0:19:42 > 0:19:46- Martin or Joel, what do we think, guys?- It's not our best subject.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48- I'll play, then.- Joel?- Yeah.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51- You like your football and things, don't you?- Yeah, I do.
0:19:51 > 0:19:52I read the back pages every day.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54We'll go with Joel for sport, please, yeah.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57OK, Joel, who would you like to play? You can have Barry or Pat.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59I'll have Barry, please.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02All right, let's have Joel and Barry into the Question Room now, please.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Let's see if we can get you through, Joel,
0:20:06 > 0:20:08and it'll be all square in the final round.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09Do you want to go first or second?
0:20:09 > 0:20:11I'll go first, please.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Best of luck, Joel.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Which of these is the name of a London football team's home ground?
0:20:24 > 0:20:25Selhurst Park,
0:20:25 > 0:20:27and I believe that's Crystal Palace.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Is the right answer, of course.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Good start. And Barry,
0:20:31 > 0:20:35what cricketing term describes a non-striking batsman
0:20:35 > 0:20:38who is advancing down the wicket as the ball is being bowled?
0:20:41 > 0:20:43I believe he would be backing up.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45He would be.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47One each, and Joel, second question.
0:20:47 > 0:20:54The 1896 Olympic Games featured a 100-metres freestyle swimming race
0:20:54 > 0:20:57restricted to sailors from which country?
0:21:00 > 0:21:04Um, I'm not actually sure on this one,
0:21:04 > 0:21:08but I'm thinking out of those three countries,
0:21:08 > 0:21:12Great Britain was most known for its navy power back then,
0:21:12 > 0:21:14so I'm going to go with Great Britain, but that's a guess.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17- I have no idea. - OK, guess at Great Britain,
0:21:17 > 0:21:20but it is incorrect. They weren't from Great Britain.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22- Can anyone tell me?- It's Greece.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25- Greece.- Oh.- It was held in Athens.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Yeah, the Olympics in Athens. OK...
0:21:30 > 0:21:34Barry, in which year was rugby union's Heineken Cup first contested?
0:21:38 > 0:21:41It's not 2005. It's been going much longer than that,
0:21:41 > 0:21:45but I don't think it's been going as long as 1985.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47I'll go for 1995.
0:21:47 > 0:21:51OK, '95 is the right answer, so you have a lead.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53And you need this, then, Joel.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56In 2013, Brian Cookson was elected
0:21:56 > 0:22:01president of which sport's governing body after an acrimonious campaign?
0:22:04 > 0:22:06Um...
0:22:06 > 0:22:10I don't think it's tennis, because I've not heard much about that.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Brian Cookson doesn't ring a bell,
0:22:12 > 0:22:15so I'm going to go for the one that doesn't stand out to me,
0:22:15 > 0:22:17- which is badminton.- OK, badminton.
0:22:17 > 0:22:18Pat's going to tell me.
0:22:18 > 0:22:23It's cycling. It's the UCI, the global cycling body.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25And who did he eject? Who was the incumbent?
0:22:25 > 0:22:27- He replaced Pat McQuaid.- He did.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29OK, it's cycling there, Joel,
0:22:29 > 0:22:31cycling, not badminton.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33- Oh, this wasn't my affair!- Oh, dear.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Well, I'm afraid the round is over, which means
0:22:35 > 0:22:39Barry will be appearing in the final round, and no place for you.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42Would you both come back and join your teams?
0:22:43 > 0:22:45And this is what we've been playing towards.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Time for the final round, which, as always, is General Knowledge.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52I'm afraid those of you who lost those head-to-heads won't be allowed
0:22:52 > 0:22:53to take part in this round,
0:22:53 > 0:22:57so Mark, Neil and Joel from Suspicious Minds,
0:22:57 > 0:23:00and Dave from the Eggheads, would you leave the studio, please?
0:23:02 > 0:23:05So, Martyn and Paul, you're playing to win Suspicious Minds £2,000.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09Barry, Chris, Judith and Pat, you're playing for something
0:23:09 > 0:23:12which money cannot buy - the Eggheads' reputation.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15And, as usual, I'm going to ask each team three questions in turn.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17This time the questions are all General Knowledge,
0:23:17 > 0:23:18and you are allowed to confer.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20So, Suspicious Minds, the question is,
0:23:20 > 0:23:23are your two brains better than the Eggheads' four?
0:23:23 > 0:23:26And Martin and Paul, do you want to go first or second?
0:23:26 > 0:23:28We would like to go second, please, Dermot.
0:23:31 > 0:23:32So, the Eggheads begin.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Here's your first question, Eggheads.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37A brand-new standard adult UK passport
0:23:37 > 0:23:40is normally valid for what period?
0:23:43 > 0:23:45- Ten years.- Ten years, yeah.
0:23:45 > 0:23:49- Mine runs out next year, I've had it ten years.- So does mine. Yeah.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Er, that's ten years.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Ten years is correct, Eggheads.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55So, Suspicious Minds,
0:23:55 > 0:23:57which entrepreneur's company produced
0:23:57 > 0:24:01the early 1980s home computers known as the ZX80 and ZX81?
0:24:08 > 0:24:10Which entrepreneur's company
0:24:10 > 0:24:12produced the early 1980s
0:24:12 > 0:24:16home computers known as the ZX80 and ZX81?
0:24:16 > 0:24:20Well, we've just discussed it, and we both came up with the same answer.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Um, it was a strange one, it did lots of wonderful things,
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Clive Sinclair.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28Clive Sinclair, yeah, it's the right answer. Well done.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32So, Eggheads, second question.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35What is the Asahi Shimbun in Japan?
0:24:39 > 0:24:43It's A-S-A-H-I, and then S-H-I-M-B-U-N.
0:24:43 > 0:24:47I think it might be the largest circulating newspaper in the world.
0:24:47 > 0:24:48Oh!
0:24:48 > 0:24:51It's a daily newspaper.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53It is, Eggheads. OK, two to you.
0:24:53 > 0:24:54Suspicious Minds,
0:24:54 > 0:24:58by what name is the fabric hessian known in America?
0:25:01 > 0:25:04- Hessian... It's not gingham, is it? - No.- That's a much thinner material.
0:25:04 > 0:25:09Hessian's like a thick sackcloth, isn't it?
0:25:09 > 0:25:10Um...
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Burlap or seersucker...
0:25:12 > 0:25:14What are your thoughts?
0:25:17 > 0:25:18Burlap sounds safer.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20I was thinking burlap - because it's a material,
0:25:20 > 0:25:23you get bits of material lapped over the others and intertwined.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25So, it's got the word "lap" in it, so...
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Go for burlap?
0:25:28 > 0:25:29Yeah.
0:25:29 > 0:25:33OK, Dermot, we'll go for burlap.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36OK, tossing up between burlap and seersucker -
0:25:36 > 0:25:37you've got the right answer.
0:25:39 > 0:25:40Good stuff.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42OK, Eggheads, third question.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44The Scottish band Deacon Blue,
0:25:44 > 0:25:47who had several hits in the UK in the 1980s and '90s,
0:25:47 > 0:25:51took their name from the title of a song by which other band?
0:25:54 > 0:25:56I'd go for Steely Dan.
0:25:56 > 0:25:57Yeah.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59We think that's Steely Dan.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Steely Dan for Deacon Blue, the name.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04It's correct, Eggheads.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07OK, they have a lead, and you know what you've got to do here,
0:26:07 > 0:26:08Suspicious Minds.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12Which of these women did Julius Caesar marry first?
0:26:17 > 0:26:18I don't know the answer to that.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22I've just got a...
0:26:22 > 0:26:25feeling it could be Calpurnia.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30I've heard of Cornelia, not Pompeia.
0:26:30 > 0:26:31Calpurnia just...
0:26:35 > 0:26:37It rings a bell.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40It's either Cornelia or Calpurnia, I think.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45I'm happy to go with Calpurnia, if you agree with that. But...
0:26:45 > 0:26:47it's kind of guess.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Well, it IS a guess.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56Down to you, really. I'm happy to go with it if you are, but I don't know.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Go with that?
0:26:58 > 0:26:59Yeah.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01OK.
0:27:01 > 0:27:02Dermot, we'll go for Calpurnia.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04OK.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Do you know, Eggheads?
0:27:06 > 0:27:07Think it's Cornelia.
0:27:07 > 0:27:08Calpurnia was his last wife,
0:27:08 > 0:27:12and I think Pompeia was the middle one, so I'd have gone for Cornelia.
0:27:12 > 0:27:16It is Cornelia, which means, bad luck. The Eggheads have won.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Well, congratulations due.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25That was so close, you got that down to a 50/50,
0:27:25 > 0:27:28and we don't get to put another question to the Eggheads,
0:27:28 > 0:27:31because obviously they were batting first and got all three correct.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34But listen, let's reflect on what great fun we've had
0:27:34 > 0:27:35here in the studio today.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38- Thank you very much indeed for... - Thank you very much.
0:27:38 > 0:27:39..some really good quizzing.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42I mean, some of those head-to-heads couldn't have been closer.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44I think it's a bit of an unfair reflection
0:27:44 > 0:27:46of how good a team you are at quizzing
0:27:46 > 0:27:49that there's only two of you in the final round
