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 > 0:00:15arguably the most formidable quiz team in the country.

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

0:00:23 > 0:00:26Welcome to Eggheads, the show where a team of five quiz challengers

0:00:26 > 0:00:30pit their wits against possibly the greatest quiz team in Britain.

0:00:30 > 0:00:31They are the Eggheads

0:00:31 > 0:00:34and you're still the greatest, Eggheads, aren't you?

0:00:34 > 0:00:36- Yeah!- You silver-tongued devil, you!

0:00:36 > 0:00:39Challenging our resident quiz champions today

0:00:39 > 0:00:41are Ferry Useful from Norfolk.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44This team of friends are representing the Ferry Inn pub

0:00:44 > 0:00:46in the small village of Stokesby.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48Carol and Tanja work in the pub

0:00:48 > 0:00:51and the rest of the team all take part in the Sunday quiz night,

0:00:51 > 0:00:55- so let's meet them.- Hello, I'm Rob and I'm a property developer.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58Hello, I'm Carol and I'm a publican.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Hello, I'm Tanja and I'm a bar manager.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03Hello, I'm Hilary and I'm a library assistant.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Hello, I'm Stuart and I'm a company director.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09So, Rob and team, welcome. Great to see you.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11- ALL:- Hello! - Tell us about the Ferry Inn.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14Well, it's a lovely little riverside pub in the Broads.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16It's only a small village that we live in

0:01:16 > 0:01:19and we have a quiz there every Sunday night that we all attend.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22And the Broads - my parents used to go boating on the Broads

0:01:22 > 0:01:25when I was small. That's very popular still, isn't it?

0:01:25 > 0:01:26Very. It's lovely.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29I have a note that says you were in Japan, Rob,

0:01:29 > 0:01:33and ate a 17-course chicken meal.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37We were guests of some long-standing friends of ours

0:01:37 > 0:01:41and my ears perked up at the thought of a specialist chicken restaurant,

0:01:41 > 0:01:47but when two of the courses were chicken feet and raw chicken hearts,

0:01:47 > 0:01:50sadly, my appetite waned somewhat.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Well, I hope you can make a meal of these five today.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Take them one at a time and any entrails and so on,

0:01:55 > 0:01:58we'll dispose of later. LAUGHTER

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Every day, there's £1,000-worth of cash

0:02:00 > 0:02:01up for grabs for our challengers.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03However, if they fail to defeat the Eggheads,

0:02:03 > 0:02:05the prize money rolls over to our next show.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08You know that. Ferry Useful, what you may not know is that the Eggheads

0:02:08 > 0:02:12have won the last three games, so there's £4,000 to win today.

0:02:12 > 0:02:13Shall we crack on?

0:02:13 > 0:02:14- Let's do it.- Yes!

0:02:14 > 0:02:17First head-to-head battle is on the subject of Music.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19Who wants to go for this?

0:02:20 > 0:02:23- I think you.- Me, yeah? - Yeah.- We go for it?

0:02:23 > 0:02:26- Got to be Tanja.- Tanja on Music. Against which Egghead, Tanya?

0:02:26 > 0:02:28You can have any one of the five.

0:02:28 > 0:02:32Look at them, whistling like criminals at the scene of a crime.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34I'd like to take CJ with me.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36You mean out of the studio and away?

0:02:36 > 0:02:38LAUGHTER We'd love that.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40We would love that, yes.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Tanja from Ferry Useful versus CJ from the Eggheads on Music.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46Please take your positions in our Question Room.

0:02:48 > 0:02:52- So you like music, Tanja? - I do. I absolutely love my music.

0:02:52 > 0:02:58- What's your favourite kind of...? - OK, so, The Who, Led Zeppelin,

0:02:58 > 0:03:02oh, Eric Clapton, Neil Young, quite eclectic.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Where are you on Led Zeppelin, CJ, these days?

0:03:05 > 0:03:08Is that some popular beat combo that I don't know of?

0:03:08 > 0:03:11Probably the greatest rock with a capital "R" band of all time,

0:03:11 > 0:03:16- would you say, Tanja?- Oh, most definitely, most definitely.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18- Oh, CJ, the blanks, honestly.- Sorry.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20I just don't do music.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22I've never listened to it, I've never bought it,

0:03:22 > 0:03:24- just really no interest in it.- OK.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27If Led Zeppelin sang a song about you, would you be interested?

0:03:27 > 0:03:29- You mean they haven't? - THEY CHUCKLE

0:03:29 > 0:03:32OK, Tanja, you can see what you're up against. Good luck on Music.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34Would you like to go first or second?

0:03:34 > 0:03:36I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40And here we go with your first question. Good luck.

0:03:40 > 0:03:45Which of these musical instruments is commonly fitted with a tremolo arm

0:03:45 > 0:03:46or a whammy bar?

0:03:48 > 0:03:51Well, I should know this, as my son plays

0:03:51 > 0:03:52and he's an exceptional player.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54It's the electric guitar.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56Electric guitar is quite right.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01OK, CJ, swing music evolved from which of these musical forms?

0:04:06 > 0:04:09Who writes these options?!

0:04:10 > 0:04:13I hope swing came from jazz.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15I wish it were not so, but you are correct.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Jazz it was, not thrash metal.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21OK, Tanja, what was the birth name of Stevie Wonder?

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Was it...

0:04:29 > 0:04:31OK...

0:04:31 > 0:04:36I'm going to have to take a guess on this one, Stevie Wonder.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40I'm going to say Stevland Hardaway Judkins.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42That definitely sounds like the least made-up.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45- The least made-up, yeah. - And it's the right answer as well.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47- Mr Judkins.- Well done.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49CJ.

0:04:49 > 0:04:54Stay With Me was a 2014 UK hit single for which singer?

0:04:58 > 0:05:02I think this was one of the massive hits for Sam Smith.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06Sam Smith is correct, well done.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08OK, so, two each.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12It's tight. Tanja, who composed the song Walking In The Air

0:05:12 > 0:05:15for the 1982 animated film The Snowman?

0:05:15 > 0:05:17Is it...

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Oh, my goodness. Um...

0:05:22 > 0:05:25Absolutely love the film.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28Absolutely love the music, but composing it, I've...

0:05:28 > 0:05:30I'm going to go with Howard Blake.

0:05:32 > 0:05:33- Eggheads?- Yes.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Yeah, you're right. Well done, Tanja.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38CJ, back to you. Pressure on - get this wrong, you're out.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Which Spanish city is the setting for the opera Carmen?

0:05:44 > 0:05:46My immediate instinct is Seville.

0:05:46 > 0:05:48Um, I don't think it's set in Madrid

0:05:48 > 0:05:51and I don't think it's set in Barcelona,

0:05:51 > 0:05:52so I'll have to go with Seville.

0:05:52 > 0:05:53Seville is the right answer.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Well done, three out of three for you both.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Oh!

0:05:58 > 0:06:01- Tense, eh, Tanja? Goes to Sudden Death.- Oh, yes.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04- So you have to give me the answer, I don't give you alternatives.- OK.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Which American singer, born in 1946,

0:06:07 > 0:06:10was accused of miming during her performance

0:06:10 > 0:06:13at the 2014 Glastonbury Festival?

0:06:13 > 0:06:16Oh, my goodness, 2014.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18I've got to think back.

0:06:18 > 0:06:19'46...

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Uh, Cher.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26No, it's was Dolly.

0:06:26 > 0:06:27Oh, Dolly Parton, of course!

0:06:27 > 0:06:30But she did deny it, though, and I watched the performance -

0:06:30 > 0:06:33I didn't think she was miming, I must say.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35You can usually tell when people are miming.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37CJ, for the round,

0:06:37 > 0:06:41who sang with Barbara Dickson on the 1985 UK number one single

0:06:41 > 0:06:42I Know Him So Well?

0:06:42 > 0:06:45Well, I've been out to dinner with her and Tim Rice,

0:06:45 > 0:06:46so hopefully I should know this one.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48I think it was Elaine Paige.

0:06:49 > 0:06:50From the musical Chess.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52I love the way you name-drop.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Is there anyone else who's been mentioned in this round

0:06:54 > 0:06:56that you've met and had dinner with?

0:06:56 > 0:06:58- Dolly Parton, or...? - I've not met Dolly Parton yet.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00Sorry, Dolly Parton's not met me yet.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02LAUGHTER

0:07:02 > 0:07:05From the musical Chess, Elaine Paige is the right answer, CJ.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07Well done, you took the round on Sudden Death. Sorry, Tanja.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10It just slipped past you there. A helpful dinner party.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13Often happens with CJ, actually.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16So CJ will be in the final. Please, both of you rejoin your teams.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21So as it stands, Ferry Useful have lost a brain from the final round.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23The Eggheads have not lost one yet.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26You've got plenty of time, but I think maybe now is the moment

0:07:26 > 0:07:28to rev the motor on the boat on the Broads.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31THEY CHUCKLE The next subject is Geography.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33Who would like this?

0:07:33 > 0:07:34Oh! I said I'd do it.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Do you want me to go, guys? - Yeah.- Yeah.

0:07:37 > 0:07:38- Stuart?- You happy for that, Stuart?

0:07:38 > 0:07:40Yeah. Well, I've got to go with one.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42THEY LAUGH

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Company director Stuart against which Egghead?

0:07:45 > 0:07:48- It can't be CJ.- Guys... - Who do you think?- Who do you reckon?

0:07:48 > 0:07:51- Pat?- Pat?- Yep.- Mm-hm.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53Everyone thinks Pat.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55OK, so it's going to be Stuart from Ferry Useful

0:07:55 > 0:07:58versus Pat from the Eggheads on Geography

0:07:58 > 0:08:00and just to ensure there's no conferring,

0:08:00 > 0:08:01please go to our Question Room.

0:08:02 > 0:08:03So we're on geography.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06Pat, what's the furthest you've ever been from Wigan?

0:08:06 > 0:08:09- Uh...- Bolton? - I've been to Malta and Estonia.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12Not terribly far, really, by modern standards.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16- You've not gone Australia, you've not gone USA?- No, I haven't.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19OK, well, what about you, Stuart? Can you compete with that? Malta?

0:08:19 > 0:08:22Erm, last year I went to Bali

0:08:22 > 0:08:26and we had a four-day trip over to Australia.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28I was scuba diving in Bali

0:08:28 > 0:08:32and we swam in the sea just off Perth for a little while.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34We were mindful of the great whites,

0:08:34 > 0:08:37cos they do get shark attacks out there.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40- I think he's probably trumped you there, Pat.- I think he's won.

0:08:40 > 0:08:41- LAUGHTER - I think he's won.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43The story of this year's holidays.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46So, OK, Stuart, you sound like you're in a good position on Geography.

0:08:46 > 0:08:47Would you like to go first or second?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Uh, I think I'll go first.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54And here we go with your first question.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57Uruguay borders Argentina and which other country?

0:09:00 > 0:09:01Erm...

0:09:03 > 0:09:06I think I'll go with Chile.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Chile is your answer. Have you been to South America at all?

0:09:11 > 0:09:14No, it's one which I'm not too sure of.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16I haven't been either. Can you help us here, Pat? Is he right?

0:09:16 > 0:09:18I think it lies just south of Brazil.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21Yeah, Brazil is the answer. Brazil's got lots of...

0:09:21 > 0:09:24Well, it's a huge country, so it tends to be the border with..

0:09:24 > 0:09:26All but two of the countries there.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29All but two of them? OK, usually Brazil, apparently.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32This is the quizzers' experience here.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34They see Brazil, they say Brazil.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Whatever the question.

0:09:36 > 0:09:37Pat, the port of Zeebrugge,

0:09:37 > 0:09:41which has a daily ferry service with the UK, is in which country?

0:09:45 > 0:09:48I think that's on the North Sea.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51It's a Belgian port, it's in Belgium.

0:09:51 > 0:09:52Belgium is correct.

0:09:53 > 0:09:54So back to you, Stuart.

0:09:54 > 0:09:58Dunstanburgh and Warkworth are medieval castles

0:09:58 > 0:10:01near the coast of which English county?

0:10:03 > 0:10:09Erm, we live near Suffolk and I can't think that they're Suffolk.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13Again, I'm not too sure.

0:10:13 > 0:10:17But I think I'll go to Northumberland.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19Yes, you are correct.

0:10:19 > 0:10:20Well done, Stuart.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22You're on the board now. Let's see what Pat does.

0:10:22 > 0:10:28The Gateway of India is a ceremonial arch overlooking the Arabian Sea

0:10:28 > 0:10:29in which city?

0:10:33 > 0:10:34I think they built it...

0:10:35 > 0:10:41Maybe George V, maybe Edward VII, but for the visit of an English king

0:10:41 > 0:10:44and it's near the waterfront in Mumbai.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46Mumbai is the right answer, well done.

0:10:48 > 0:10:49OK, Stuart, back to you.

0:10:49 > 0:10:53The city of Hartford is the capital of which US state?

0:10:53 > 0:10:55Is it...

0:10:57 > 0:11:01Again, America, not too sure on this.

0:11:01 > 0:11:02Um...

0:11:02 > 0:11:05I'm just going to have a guess at this one.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08I'll got for Connecticut.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Carol, I know you've been to the States a lot.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13- 26 states, you've been to.- Yep. - Have you been to Connecticut?

0:11:13 > 0:11:15I've been to all three of those, actually.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17- And is he right?- Yes, he is.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19You're right, Stuart, well done.

0:11:19 > 0:11:23Two each, but Pat has a question in hand.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26The Ring of Gullion is an area of outstanding beauty

0:11:26 > 0:11:29in which country of the United Kingdom?

0:11:29 > 0:11:30Is it...

0:11:33 > 0:11:35The Ring of Gullion, G-U-L-L-I-O-N.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39Well, I'm not sure.

0:11:39 > 0:11:43It could conceivably been in somewhere like County Down

0:11:43 > 0:11:46or County Antrim, they've got lots of rural scenery.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50For some reason, I'm not inclined to pick England,

0:11:50 > 0:11:55so I think I'll pick between Northern Ireland and Scotland.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Could possibly be in Northern Ireland. I'll have to have a guess.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01On the basis that Scotland is so much larger

0:12:01 > 0:12:03and has so many more places to hide

0:12:03 > 0:12:06a Ring of Gullion, I'll go for Scotland.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08Who knows this? Is it Scotland?

0:12:08 > 0:12:10I'm not sure.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13I thought Ireland some way before the choices came up,

0:12:13 > 0:12:16so I think I'd probably have gone for that,

0:12:16 > 0:12:18but with that sort of name, again,

0:12:18 > 0:12:20it could even be somewhere like Cornwall,

0:12:20 > 0:12:22but I'd say Northern Ireland.

0:12:22 > 0:12:24You're wrong, Pat, actually - it is Northern Ireland.

0:12:24 > 0:12:29So how about that, Stuart? You're back from the brink here.

0:12:30 > 0:12:31We go to Sudden Death, Stuart.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34It gets a bit harder, I don't give you alternatives.

0:12:34 > 0:12:39What is the only US state that begins with the letter U?

0:12:40 > 0:12:44Um, I went there skiing last month and I believe it's Utah.

0:12:44 > 0:12:48- That's very handy. Yes, Carol, is he right?- Yeah.- He is right.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50Utah.

0:12:50 > 0:12:51OK, Pat, your question to stay in.

0:12:51 > 0:12:56Jomo Kenyatta International Airport serves which African capital?

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Well, let's see.

0:12:58 > 0:13:02Jomo Kenyatta I think was a key man in the history of Kenya.

0:13:04 > 0:13:08So what's the capital of Kenya? It should be Nairobi, shouldn't it?

0:13:08 > 0:13:10Kenya's Nairobi.

0:13:10 > 0:13:11I think that has to be Nairobi.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14Nairobi is the right answer. Yes, in Kenya.

0:13:14 > 0:13:18Stuart, Majorca, Menorca, Ibiza

0:13:18 > 0:13:22and which other are the four largest of the Balearic Islands?

0:13:26 > 0:13:29It's just not coming to me, I'm sorry. Um...

0:13:31 > 0:13:34No, it's just not coming, sorry.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37- I'll pass, I'll have to pass on that one.- OK.

0:13:37 > 0:13:41- Anyone?- Formentera. - Formentera is the answer.- Argh!

0:13:41 > 0:13:43Pat, for the round, then.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46What is Britain's most northerly national park?

0:13:48 > 0:13:50Let's see, we have, um...

0:13:50 > 0:13:52We'll be in Scotland, for starters.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55There's the Trossachs.

0:13:55 > 0:14:00I think the Cairngorms became a very large national park.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04Anything up further than the Cairngorms?

0:14:04 > 0:14:05I don't think so.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07I'll go for the Cairngorms.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Cairngorms is the right answer, Pat, well done.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14The Trossachs, are they up or down, or sideways?

0:14:14 > 0:14:16Sounds very painful.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18Well, yes, yes.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21If you get a cold wind blowing through the Trossachs, that's not...

0:14:21 > 0:14:23LAUGHTER

0:14:23 > 0:14:25Stuart, I'm sorry, you've had the cold wind

0:14:25 > 0:14:27in the Trossachs yourself there

0:14:27 > 0:14:30and Pat is a great white shark who's just taken a nibble.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33Pat will be in the final and you've been knocked out.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35Please, both of you return and we'll play on.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40As it stands, Ferry Useful have lost two brains from the final round.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Is there any change of tactics now, Rob?

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Well, we've got the spreadsheet out last night

0:14:46 > 0:14:47and were working it all out

0:14:47 > 0:14:50and that's now well and truly in the bin, so...

0:14:50 > 0:14:52THEY CHUCKLE

0:14:53 > 0:14:55- ..we're shooting from the hip now, I think.- OK.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57Well, that's not bad, people have won like that.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00The Eggheads have not lost a brain. Try and get one out in this round.

0:15:00 > 0:15:01It is History.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03Which of Ferry Useful would like History?

0:15:03 > 0:15:05Is that you or me? Me?

0:15:05 > 0:15:07- Go on.- Me?- Yes, go.

0:15:07 > 0:15:10- Carol?- That would be me. - All right, and against which Egghead?

0:15:10 > 0:15:13We've got Lisa, Dave or Kevin to offer.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15- Can I take Dave? Would that be all right?- Yeah?

0:15:15 > 0:15:18- Can I take Dave, please, Jeremy? - You may indeed, yes.

0:15:18 > 0:15:22Carol from Ferry Useful versus Dave from the Eggheads on History.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24Please go to our Question Room.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28So History, Carol, and would you like to go first or second?

0:15:28 > 0:15:30Oh, I'll go first, please, Jeremy.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35Good luck to you, here we go.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37Whilst he was Prince of Wales,

0:15:37 > 0:15:40the future George IV was known by which title

0:15:40 > 0:15:44during the period of his father's insanity?

0:15:44 > 0:15:46Is it...

0:15:48 > 0:15:50I can't see it being Prince Regent,

0:15:50 > 0:15:55cos I think that would be the husband of the current queen.

0:15:55 > 0:15:59So I think I'll go for King Prince, please, Jeremy.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02- It is actually Prince Regent, in fact.- Oh!

0:16:03 > 0:16:05Dave, your question.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08What name was given to the army created by the Parliamentary faction

0:16:08 > 0:16:10during the English Civil War?

0:16:10 > 0:16:12Was it...

0:16:15 > 0:16:20One of my favourite groups. It's the reason I know this.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22Er, yeah, Vengeance and all that.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24The New Model Army.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27- I've never really got into the New Model Army, are they good?- Very good.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29- Right, I'm going to look them up.- Yes.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32- This will confuse people watching now, won't it?- Yes, it will.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35But the originals were indeed the New Model Army.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37- Fantastic name.- Yeah.

0:16:37 > 0:16:42OK, Carol, which name is shared by ancient cities

0:16:42 > 0:16:43both in Greece and Egypt?

0:16:48 > 0:16:52I don't think it's Luxor, I think that's just in Egypt.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54I will say Sparta.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59It's not Luxor, but it's also not Sparta.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02- It's Thebes! - I'm sorry, it is Thebes.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Just unlucky there so, Dave, if you get this right,

0:17:04 > 0:17:05you've taken the round.

0:17:05 > 0:17:09Who was First Lord of the Admiralty, blamed for the failure

0:17:09 > 0:17:13of the Gallipoli Campaign in the First World War?

0:17:13 > 0:17:14Is it...

0:17:18 > 0:17:20I don't think it's Montgomery.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23I don't think it's Churchill, I think it's Lord Kitchener.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25- Oh, oh, oh, dear.- Oh!

0:17:25 > 0:17:27Even I know this.

0:17:27 > 0:17:28Is it Churchill?

0:17:28 > 0:17:30- Yeah, it is very much Churchill. - Oh, jumped in.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33- Blurted.- So who's going to fill us in? CJ, do you know the story here?

0:17:33 > 0:17:35He planned the whole Gallipoli Campaign

0:17:35 > 0:17:38and it was an absolute disaster and because of this,

0:17:38 > 0:17:40he retired from... resigned from the job.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43These days, if you'd done that, you'd never be in public life again,

0:17:43 > 0:17:46- but he bounced back.- He sort of had another career, didn't he?- He did.

0:17:46 > 0:17:47Can't remember what it was,

0:17:47 > 0:17:50but he definitely did reappear in public life, Winston Churchill.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52He had his wilderness years, then he came back.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Commanded a battalion on the Western Front.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Oh, so he came back in at a lower level, effectively?

0:17:58 > 0:17:59Well, he used his connections

0:17:59 > 0:18:02to actually join the army and go

0:18:02 > 0:18:03and be in battle

0:18:03 > 0:18:05on the Western Front.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08- A sort of self-punishment in a way. - Penance?- Yeah, that's right,

0:18:08 > 0:18:11but then he came back to his political career after that.

0:18:11 > 0:18:15- Fascinating. There we go, Dave.- Yep. - We both learned something there.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17So, Carol, that's good, isn't it?

0:18:17 > 0:18:18- Sort of.- He messed one up.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21- You have to get this right, though, to stay in.- Right.

0:18:21 > 0:18:26In 1775, which American frontiersman led a gang of workers

0:18:26 > 0:18:28to build the Wilderness Road,

0:18:28 > 0:18:33which ran from eastern Virginia into the interior of Kentucky and beyond?

0:18:33 > 0:18:35Was this...

0:18:40 > 0:18:42Just a bit before my time.

0:18:42 > 0:18:47Erm, I'm going to once again, another guess, and I will say...

0:18:47 > 0:18:48Kit Carson.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52Familiar name, is it the right name? Who was Kit Carson, Eggs?

0:18:52 > 0:18:54He was a scout in the West.

0:18:54 > 0:18:58- He was a scout in the West. It was Daniel Boone who did it.- Urgh!

0:18:58 > 0:19:01So, sorry, you've drawn a blank there

0:19:01 > 0:19:04and Dave with his point is through to the final round.

0:19:04 > 0:19:05You've been knocked out, Carol.

0:19:05 > 0:19:08Let's see who your team do in the last round before the final.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10Please come back and we'll play it.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13It's not a crisis yet.

0:19:13 > 0:19:15- THEY CHUCKLE - It's getting there!

0:19:15 > 0:19:18It's getting there a little bit, a little bit.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21You've lost three brains from the final round, Ferry Useful.

0:19:21 > 0:19:22People have won from this position.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25It would be handy, though, to win this next round.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27- It would.- And it is on Sport.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30So who's your Sport person?

0:19:30 > 0:19:32THEY CONFER QUIETLY

0:19:32 > 0:19:35- Yeah, I'll take this one.- Rob? OK.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38There's a certain resigned air to your answer there.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41Who would you like to take on? You can have either Kevin or Lisa.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43I'd like to take on Kevin, please.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46Right. It's going to be Rob from Ferry Useful

0:19:46 > 0:19:50against Kevin on the sailboat, doing the Sport.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53Yeah, well, I think I'd probably lose if it was on a sailboat.

0:19:53 > 0:19:54THEY CHUCKLE

0:19:54 > 0:19:58To ensure there's no conferring, please go to our Question Room.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02So Sport, Rob, and would you like to go first or second?

0:20:02 > 0:20:05I'd like to go first, please, Jeremy.

0:20:07 > 0:20:09Here is your first question, good luck.

0:20:09 > 0:20:13Who was the head coach of England's 2003

0:20:13 > 0:20:15World Cup-winning Rugby Union team?

0:20:20 > 0:20:25I'm a very keen rugby fan, even though my roots lie in Wales

0:20:25 > 0:20:29and I was supporting the opposition, but I know for a fact on this time,

0:20:29 > 0:20:32great achievement - Sir Clive Woodward.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35Indeed, Clive Woodward is the right answer, well done.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38I'm not a big rugby fan, but even I remember -

0:20:38 > 0:20:41- that was the Jonny Wilkinson drop kick at the end.- That's right.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44- Early one Sunday morning. - Yes, I got up to watch it.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46Got up to watch it.

0:20:46 > 0:20:50OK, Kevin, a match in which of these sports begins with the umpire

0:20:50 > 0:20:52bouncing the ball high into the air?

0:20:57 > 0:21:02I think that's how you start off a game of Aussie Rules Football.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Which then just gets harder from that point, so yeah.

0:21:06 > 0:21:07Aussie Rules Football.

0:21:07 > 0:21:10Yes, you're right. That's a hard question, actually.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12Australian Rules Football is correct.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Back to you, Rob. For which English football team

0:21:15 > 0:21:18did Patrick Vieira play from 1996 to 2005?

0:21:23 > 0:21:26Well, I know for a fact he played for Arsenal

0:21:26 > 0:21:30and I'm pretty sure he didn't play for the other two, so Arsenal.

0:21:30 > 0:21:34Yes, great midfielder, well done. Arsenal is the answer.

0:21:34 > 0:21:39OK, Kevin, in which year was the athlete Carl Lewis born?

0:21:44 > 0:21:48I might have this wrong, but I think he famously shared a birthday,

0:21:48 > 0:21:50possibly, with Princess Diana.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Um, so it's 1961.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56- You mean not just a birth year, but a birthday?- I think.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58- Born on the same day? - I'm not certain about that.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00We'll check that out, but that's interesting.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02'61 is the right answer, well done.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05Is he on your huge list of birth years

0:22:05 > 0:22:07and death years that you keep in that massive brain of yours?

0:22:07 > 0:22:12Uh, yeah, well, I left that behind somewhere, but it's...

0:22:12 > 0:22:18Yeah, dates are one of those things where some lodge and some don't.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21Most do, but for some reason, some don't.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23There's no rhyme or reason to it.

0:22:23 > 0:22:27Probably needs to be analysed by laser or something like that.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29What, you can give your body to science, you mean?

0:22:29 > 0:22:31Not the rest of it.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34I don't think they'd be very interested in the rest of it.

0:22:34 > 0:22:35Anyway, you are correct.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37Just to let you know that Princess Diana

0:22:37 > 0:22:39and Carl Lewis were born on the very same day.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41- Mm-hm.- Do you know the date?

0:22:41 > 0:22:43Was it 1st July?

0:22:43 > 0:22:47Correct, well done. He knows... There is nothing he does not know.

0:22:48 > 0:22:52OK, Rob, your question, after that slight detour.

0:22:52 > 0:22:58Which golfer won the US Open in 1973 and the Open Championship in 1976?

0:23:03 > 0:23:06I have to say that golf is not my strong suit.

0:23:07 > 0:23:09So it's going to be a bit of a guess.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12I'd like to think it was a slightly educated guess

0:23:12 > 0:23:14and I'd like to go for Lee Trevino.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18Now, let's see, is Lee Trevino that kind of era?

0:23:18 > 0:23:20- Yes.- Yes, he is?

0:23:20 > 0:23:21He won much more than that.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23He won much more. It was Johnny Miller.

0:23:23 > 0:23:24Aww!

0:23:24 > 0:23:27So a chance for Kevin to take the round.

0:23:27 > 0:23:31Kevin, randolphs, rudolphs and adolphs

0:23:31 > 0:23:33are manoeuvres in which sport?

0:23:33 > 0:23:34Is it...

0:23:37 > 0:23:41That's actually one of those quiz things, really, I have to say.

0:23:41 > 0:23:42It's trampolining.

0:23:42 > 0:23:44It sounds like it should have ice in it,

0:23:44 > 0:23:47I must say, cos of the kind of wintry feel to those names,

0:23:47 > 0:23:51but you're right, unless there's ice on the trampoline.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54Trampolining is the right answer. That's a quiz thing, is it?

0:23:54 > 0:23:58Over the years, I've heard that one a few times.

0:23:58 > 0:24:00Do you know what a randolph is?

0:24:00 > 0:24:02I used to, but to be honest,

0:24:02 > 0:24:04I've lost track of what the different manoeuvres are.

0:24:04 > 0:24:06Obviously, it's a bit like diving,

0:24:06 > 0:24:08in the sense of involving different twists

0:24:08 > 0:24:10and combinations of manoeuvres,

0:24:10 > 0:24:13but I've forgotten exactly which ones are which now.

0:24:13 > 0:24:16Presumably, one of them is jumping up and down waving, shouting,

0:24:16 > 0:24:18"Hey, y'all, watch this."

0:24:18 > 0:24:21Um... Maybe that's freestyle, probably.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23Well done, Kevin, you've taken the round. Sorry, Rob.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26You were beaten by our Eggheads, you won't be in the final.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28You're down to one in the final. Let's see what happens.

0:24:28 > 0:24:31Return to your team-mates and we will play the last round.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35So this is the climax, what we've been playing towards.

0:24:35 > 0:24:39It is time for the final round. It's General Knowledge as always.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42I'm afraid those of you who lost your head-to-heads don't take part

0:24:42 > 0:24:45in this round, so I have to look to our challengers.

0:24:45 > 0:24:49Rob, Carol, Tanja and Stuart from Ferry Useful,

0:24:49 > 0:24:51would you please leave the studio?

0:24:52 > 0:24:55- So, Hilary, you're a part-time library assistant.- I am, yes.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57- Surrounded by books all day - handy. - Exactly, yes.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59- And you set questions in a quiz? - I do, yes.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02Mainly just fundraising for the local village hall

0:25:02 > 0:25:06and last November, I did one for the Macmillan nurses.

0:25:06 > 0:25:08Great. I hope this is a perfect CV

0:25:08 > 0:25:12- for the situation that you find yourself in.- Let's hope so!

0:25:12 > 0:25:15On your own here playing to win Ferry Useful £4,000.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18And as for CV and Pat and Lisa and Dave and Kevin, yes,

0:25:18 > 0:25:21you're all together, but my goodness, if you all go down together,

0:25:21 > 0:25:23it's going to be absolutely humiliating

0:25:23 > 0:25:25and it happened not so long ago.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28As usual, I will ask each team three questions in turn.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30This time, the questions are all general knowledge.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32You are allowed to confer.

0:25:32 > 0:25:35I'm sorry, that doesn't help you very much, Hilary.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37So the question is, Ferry Useful,

0:25:37 > 0:25:40can you with your one brain defeat these five?

0:25:40 > 0:25:42Would you like to go first or second, Hilary?

0:25:42 > 0:25:44I think I'll go first, thank you, Jeremy.

0:25:47 > 0:25:48And here is your question.

0:25:48 > 0:25:52Chestnut and russet are shades of which colour?

0:25:55 > 0:25:57Definitely not grey.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59Neither yellow, so it must be brown.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Brown is the answer, well done.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06Eggheads, the supermodel Kate Moss was born in which decade?

0:26:09 > 0:26:13- '74.- Yeah, turned 40 not so long ago, that's right.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15- I think so. - Yeah, it'll be 1970s, yeah?

0:26:15 > 0:26:16All good? Cool.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18That's the 1970s, Jeremy.

0:26:18 > 0:26:20'70s is right, well done.

0:26:22 > 0:26:26Your question, Hilary. Ancoats is an area of which English city?

0:26:29 > 0:26:33Ancoats, all one word, A-N-C-O-A-T-S.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35Well, I don't know the answer.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40But something is drawing me to Liverpool.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42So I'll say Liverpool.
